The aim of this study is to determine the
feelings of self-confidence of high school students who do sports and do not,
and also to analyze determined feelings of self-confidence, whether it changes
according to socio-demographic factors. In line with this purpose, a sports highschool and a regular highschool were selected because
it was accessible by using the appropriate sampling method from the non-random
sampling method, in 2015. Students were informed about the research at
Anatolian High School and Sports High School after obtaining the necessary
permissions. The self-confidence scale developed by Tokinan and a personal
information form prepared by the researchers to determine the socio-demographic
characteristics was applied to measure the self-confidence of 100 students, 50
of whom were from Istanbul Faik Somer Fine Arts and Sports High School and 50
students from Pendik High School. The data obtained as a result of the scale
applications were analyzed with the SPSS 17.0 package program. As the data
showed normal distribution, t-test was used for paired set comparisons among
parametric tests, and Variance analysis was used for comparisons of three or
more sets. As a result of the study, statistically significant
difference has not been found between the self-confidence scores of highschool
students doing sports and highschool students not doing sports. While significant difference has not been found in the
self-confidence scores of highschool students who do sports and do not, when
these scores are compared in terms of gender, family income level, parents are
separate/together, father's educational status, parents' attitudes towards the
student; the significant difference has been found in terms of mother's
educational status and mother’s job. Finally, significant difference has not
been found in terms of gender, number of siblings, who pays for preschool
care and school success, does she have a license, how many years she has been
licensed, whether the parents are alive or not, whether the parents are
separated or together (who they are staying with if they are separated) family
attitude, income status, father's educational status, and father's work status.
Key words:
self-confidence, sport, highscool students.
