    Evaluation of the Attitudes of University Students Studying in a Winter Sports Destination Towards Winter Sports
    (Bayburt University, 2025) Gezer, Hatice; Karademir, İsmail; Gezer, Engin
    This study aimed to evaluate the attitudes of university students studying in a winter sports destination towards winter sports. For this purpose, a total of 106 students, 47 (44.3%) female and 59 (55.7%) male, studying in different departments of Kafkas University, participated in the study. In the study, the "Winter Sports Attitude Scale" developed by Şebin (2009) was used to measure the students' attitudes towards winter sports. The winter sports attitude scale consists of 25 items and a single sub-dimension. The Cronbach Alpha coefficient of the scale found by Şebin (2009) was determined as .94. The IBM SPSS Statistics v22 package program was used in the statistical analysis of the data. Skewness and Kurtosis tests were used to test the normality of the data, and it was determined that the data did not have a normal distribution. After this first examination, the nonparametric test method was used in the statistical analysis of the data. In the paired group comparisons of the students' demographic variables in the winter sports destination, the "Mann-Whitney U Test" was applied. In the comparisons of three/or more groups, the "Kruskal-Wallis H" test was applied, and again, the "Mann-Whitney U Test" was used to determine the direction of significance. The significance level was set at 0.05. The mean score of the Winter Sports Attitude Scale of the students participating in the research was 2.53±0.79. As a result of the research, in this study where the attitudes of students who are located near the winter sports center and do not have any transportation problems to the facility were evaluated, it was found that the attitudes of older students towards winter sports were statistically lower than those of the other participants. Among the participants who were engaged in skiing with a license and those who were not licensed, it was observed that those who were engaged in sports with a license developed a significantly lower attitude. Considering the time they spent in the branch, they did so with a permit and the energy they paid, it is interpreted that this situation creates a saturation towards winter sports and causes a decrease in the level of attitude. No statistically significant difference was found in the evaluations made in other demographic variables.
