Özet

This research aims to examine the psychological resilience and self-esteem levels of the students of the faculty of sports sciences in terms of various variables. The study group of the research consisted of a total of 278 university students selected by random method from students studying in various departments of the Faculty of Sport Sciences, Atatiirk University and Erzurum Technical University. As a data collection tool in the research "Short Psychological Resilience Scale", "Two-Dimensional Self-Esteem Scale" and "Personal Information Form" were used. Short Psychological Resilience Scale developed by Smith et al. in 2008 and adapted to Turkish by Dogan in 2015 [1, 2]. This scale consists of six items. Two-Dimensional Self-Esteem Scale", which was developed by Tafarodi and Swan in 2001 and adapted to Turkish by Dogan in 2011, and whose reliability and validity studies were conducted, was used [3, 4]. The scale consists of sixteen items and two dimensions (self-liking, self-efficacy). The research was carried out in accordance with the relational screening model, which is a sub-type of general screening model. In the evaluation of the data as statistical analysis, descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Pearson Correlation test were used in independent groups to determine the relationship between dependent variables. As a result of the research, a significant difference was found in the psychological resilience scale score according to the gender variable of the participants, and it was found that the difference was in favor of male students. Besides a positive relationship between the psychological resilience and self-esteem of the participants was found.
