Effect of Recreational Activities on the Self-Esteem Level of High School Students

Year 2018, Issue: Özel Sayı 1, 9 - 13, 20.10.2018

Abstract

The
purpose of this study was to determine the level of self-esteem and to examine
the effects of socio-demographic features: gender, income, sports type and
recreational participation in a high school population. A cross-sectional
survey was conducted among 490 volunteer high school students (187 female, 303
male) aged between 14 and 19. Data were collected using a questionnaire
prepared by the researcher to determine the socio-demographic characteristics
of the students and the SERS-SF: Self Esteem Rating Scale-Short Form. The scale
developed by Rossenberg (1965) and adapted to the Turkish population by
Çuhadaroğlu (1986). The SPSS package program was used for the analysis of the
data. According to research findings, it was found that there was a statistically
significant difference in the self-esteem level of students according to
participation status to recreational activities (p<0,05). When we examine
students income, sports type, and gender there was not a significant difference
in the self-esteem level (p>0,05).
