Students’ ability to internalize desired characteristics in life studies course is closely related to their readiness. The readiness is in turn linked to students’ knowledge, abilities, interests, habits, attitudes and values. Considering attitudes, students learn more effectively and become more successful when they develop a positive attitude towards a course. Depending on that success, students are expected to be happy. In the present study, students’ attitudes towards life studies course and their levels of school happiness are investigated using single screening, causal comparison and relational screening models. The study sample consists of 948 students selected via stratified and random sampling from a population of students attending 2nd and 3rd grades of primary schools in Ankara. The results of the analyses performed with parametric tests demonstrate high levels of life studies course attitudes and school happiness among 2nd and 3rd grade primary school students. A moderate, positive and significant relationship was found between attitudes and school happiness, with attitude accounting for 15% of the total variance of happiness. However, attitudes and school happiness do not vary significantly according to gender, grade, parents’ education and daily reading time.Keywords: Attitude, Life Studies, School Happiness.

ABSTRACT This study investigated the effect of the Recreational Physical Activity Program (RPAPP) on problem behaviors of adolescents with mild intellectual disabilities. The experimental group (n=17) involved the parents of adolescents with mild intellectual disabilities who were studying at the School for the Mildly Mentally Handicapped, within the Meram Melike Hatun Special Education Vocational High School affiliated to the Ministry of National Education in Konya. The parents who remained after the exclusion of the lost data constituted the control group (n=17). The Personal Information Form developed by the researchers and the Aberrant Behavior Checklist were used to collect data. The sample of the study consisted of 34 participants. To measure the aberrant behaviors of the adolescents, an evaluation was made through the parents. The study had a pretest-posttest experimental design with a control group. A 16-session RPA was implemented in the experimental group for 8 weeks, two sessions a week and each session lasting for about an hour. The results of the study revealed no statistically significant difference between the Aberrant Behavior Checklist pre-test and post-test total and factor scores of the experimental and control groups (p.05). the application of a recreational physical activity program in 16 sessions is not sufficient to reduce aberrant behaviors; therefore, longer-term programs are necessary for behavior change.Keywords: Aberrant Behaviors, Adolescent, Intellectual Disability, Therapeutic Recreation Program

ABSTRACTIt is observed that there are physiological changes in the organism as a result of long-term training, but the mineral and hormonal effects of regular and submaximal exercises have not been fully revealed. This study was conducted to determine the effect of eight-week high-intensity training on mineral and thyroid hormone metabolism of badminton athletes. The research group consisted of 24 volunteer male athletes licensed in the badminton branch. Considering the badminton competition period, an eight-week, ninety-minute training program was applied to the research group, three days a week. Within the scope of the training, 10-15 minutes of warm-up time, 50-60 minutes of badminton training and studies to improve basic motoric features, and 5-10 minutes of cool-down exercises were made at the end of the training. Blood samples were taken from the athletes in the research group twice, before the start of the training program and at the end of the training. In the blood samples taken as a result of the training, the athletes; thyroid hormones (TSH, T3, T4), sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, levels were determined. The obtained data were analyzed using the SPSS 22 package program and the significance was accepted as p0.05. As a result of the research, it was determined that there was a statistically significant difference between the thyroid hormone metabolism, TSH and T3 pre-post test values of the athletes (p0.05), while there was no statistically significant difference between the T4 values and the pre-post test values (p0.05). When the mineral levels of the athletes were evaluated as a result of the training, it was determined that there was a statistically significant difference in the Sodium, Potassium and Magnesium pre-post-test levels (p0.05), while there was no statistically significant difference in the calcium pre-post-test level (p0.05). As a result, it was observed that eight-week high-intensity training caused changes on the mineral and thyroid hormone metabolism of the athletes. In this context if the trainings to be applied are designed considering these physiological changes, it will positively affect the performance of the athlete.Keywords: Badminton, Mineral Metabolism, Thyroid Hormones, Training

AbstractThe aim of this study is to examine pre-service teachers' leisure time participation, automatic thought and life satisfaction levels according to some variables and to determine the relationship between them. A sample of 862 (468 female, 394 male) pre-service teachers studying a state university provided responses. In the study, 'Life Satisfaction Scale' (LSS) and 'Revised Automatic Thought Questionnaire (ATQ-R)' were administered on the participants. Descriptive statistical methods, t-test, ANOVA and correlation analyses were used in the data analysis. Pre-service teachers' automatic thought perceptions were at low level, while life satisfaction perceptions were at middle level. The scores of the LSS and ATQ-R did not differ significantly according to gender, department and grade level. While the scores of ATQ-R did not differ significantly according to income and leisure time evaluation, the scores of LSS differed significantly. On the other hand, the scores of both LSS and the ATQ-R differed significantly according to the frequency of participation in recreational activities. And also, there was a negative and moderate correlation between pre-service teachers’ life satisfaction and automatic thought perceptions. Results showed that the life satisfaction and automatic thought perceptions of male and female students did not change. It was determined that the participants' life satisfaction and automatic thought perceptions did not differ according to department and grade level. In addition, participants with high income and pre-service teachers who stated that they participate in social, cultural and artistic activities in leisure time had higher life satisfaction. As participation recreational activities in leisure time increased, the life satisfaction perception increased, and the perception of automatic thought decreased. In addition, as the participants' life satisfaction perceptions increased, their automatic thought perceptions also decreased.Keywords: Automatic Thought Perception, Leisure Time, Life Satisfaction, Pre-Service Teacher

AbstractThe replication of successful National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) athletic departments is commonly pursued through the targeted hiring of athletic administrators at successful athletic departments. The significance on replicating organizational success through this transfer of people is indicative of the emphases placed on winning and revenue acquisition distinct to collegiate athletic departments. During this transfer, athletic directors inherently infuse transferred organizational practices and logics into the replicating organization. Utilizing Directors’ Cup points as a determinant metric of success, this study examined the relationship between success in Division I collegiate athletics and athletic department inclusivity of LGBTQI+ members. Findings illustrated that inclusivity of LGBTQI+ members were a statistically significant predictor of Directors’ Cup Scores among NCAA Division I member institutions. Such findings are indicative of the importance in fostering an inclusive organizational environment relative to success in collegiate athletics. Further implications illustrate the positive perpetuation of LGBTQI+ inclusion through the attempted replication of successful collegiate athletic departments.

In the U.S., adaptive sports have existed for more than 100 years, providing opportunities for individuals with disabilities. Despite the growth of adaptive sports in interscholastic and professional spaces, as well as the NCAA’s commitment to inclusion, there are minimal opportunities for students with disabilities to compete in sports at the collegiate level. Through semi-structured interview method, the purpose of this study was to understand Division III athletic administrators (N= 8) perceptions of adaptive sports. Throughout the data, 4 themes emerged: lack of knowledge, how, impact, and resources. Implications from this study suggest that a strategic plan needs to be developed to improve visibility, awareness, and general knowledge regarding adaptive sports. Additionally, a strategic plan targeting collegiate athletics is necessary to promote conversations around adaptive sports. Sponsoring adaptive sports is in line with the Division III philosophy. Although the participants indicated interest in adopting adaptive sports, barriers (e.g., resources, compliance with federal law) were a deterrent. To this, the NCAA should educate the membership on the benefits of adaptive sports and incentivize institutions to implement adaptive sports programming.Keywords: Adaptive Sports, Athletic Administration, Division III, Intercollegiate Athletics

The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between dorsiflexion angles, leg volume, dynamic balance, speed performance, and change of direction performances depending on agility in athletes aged 14–15 who were raised in the infrastructure of various sports clubs and exposed to various training loads during the basic training period. 76 male football players who play football in the amateur league participated in our research at the Cizre Hamit Özalp Stadium, which is under the Cizre Youth and Sports District Services Directorate. Height, weight, body mass index, leg volume, 30 meter speed, Y-balance test, and Illinois test were applied to the performance of changing the direction of the athletes participating in the research. The SPSS package program was used for the analysis of the data obtained in the research. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was performed to determine whether the data obtained in the study showed a normal distribution. Spearman Rank Differences the correlation test, which is one of the non-parametric tests, was used to reveal whether there is a relationship between the right and left region measurement values of the athletes participating in the research. In the research findings, the relationship among dorsiflexion and muscle volume (r=0.301, p0.01), (r=0.427, p0.01), dorsiflexion and dynamic balance anterior (r=0.497, p0.01), posterolateral (r=0.331), p0.01), posteromedial (r=0.324, p0.01), muscle volume and dynamic balance anterior (r=0.390, p0.01), posteromedial (r=0.305, p0.01), posteromedial (r=0.365, p0.01) and balance anterior (r=-0.493, p0.01), posterolateral (r=-0.382, p0.01), posteromedial and deflection (r=-0.336, p=.01) performances were examined. As a result of the research, it has been determined that the muscle volume of the athletes with good dorsiflexion angles is also good, the dynamic balance performance of the athletes with good dorsiflexion angles is also good, the dynamic balance performance of the athletes with good calf volumes is also good, and the direction change performance of the athletes with good speed performance is also good.Keywords: Change of Direction, Dorsiflexion, Football, Range of Motion, Speed

Height, weight, body mass index, leg volume, 30 meter speed, Y-balance test, and Illinois test were applied to the performance of changing the direction of the athletes participating in the research. The SPSS package program was used for the analysis of the data obtained in the research. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was performed to determine whether the data obtained in the study showed a normal distribution. Spearman Rank Differences the correlation test, which is one of the non-parametric tests, was used to reveal whether there is a relationship between the right and left region measurement values of the athletes participating in the research. In the research findings, the relationship among dorsiflexion and muscle volume (r=0.301, p0.01), (r=0.427, p0.01), dorsiflexion and dynamic balance anterior (r=0.497, p0.01), posterolateral (r=0.331), p0.01), posteromedial (r=0.324, p0.01), muscle volume and dynamic balance anterior (r=0.390, p0.01), posteromedial (r=0.305, p0.01), posteromedial (r=0.365, p0.01) and balance anterior (r=-0.493, p0.01), posterolateral (r=-0.382, p0.01), posteromedial and deflection (r=-0.336, p=.01) performances were examined.

This study was designed to examine preservice teachers' personal characteristics that can predict their confidence to integrate technology in their teaching practices. The investigators used a questionnaire designed based on Bandura’s Social Cognitive Theory to ask 168 ESL preservice teachers enrolled in the English Department in a public university located in central Anatolia. The results of this study found that the use of technology during ESL preservice teachers' training was the most significant predictor of their self-efficacy to integrate technology in their teaching practices, then followed by the number of years they are attending the education training and finally their learning preferences such as the use of multimedia and digital materials. The results of this study also found that ESL preservice teachers’ gender and age were insignificant causes for building their confidence to integrate technology. The study also has found that there is a significant relationship between ESL preservice teachers' use of technology and their levels of self-efficacy and this relationship was strong and positive. These findings indicate that prior experience with technology among preservice teachers is a key component in determining their confidence in integrating technology into teaching and learning. The study offers vital insights into how teacher education programs might effectively prepare ESL preservice teachers for technology integration. Teacher education programs should prioritize chances for preservice teachers to obtain practical experience using technology in classroom settings. Finally, the investigators provide interpretation and recommendations based on these findings.Keywords: ESL, Personal Factors, Preservice Teachers, Self-Efficacy, Technology Integration
