Kadın voleybolcularda stres yönetiminin başa çıkma yaklaşımları açısından incelenmesi

Bu çalışma kadın voleybolcuların stresle başa çıkma yaklaşımlarının belirlenerek; yaş, voleybol oynamasüresi ve üst lige yükselme maçlarını bitirme sırasına göre incelenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. Çalışma taramaaraştırması deseninde tasarlanmış olup, çalışmaya 76 kadın voleybolcu katılmıştır. Çalışmada veriler StresleBaşa Çıkma Yaklaşımları Ölçeği Türkçe versiyonu kullanılarak 2013-14 sezonu 2. Lige yükselme maçlarındatoplanmıştır. Veri analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistiksel yöntemlere ek olarak Tek Yönlü Varyans Analizi ve Tukeyçoklu karşılaştırma testleri kullanılmıştır. Sonuç olarak katılımcılar stresle başa çıkmada en fazla kendinegüvenli yaklaşımı tercih etmektedirler. Ayrıca 6-10 yıldır voleybol oynayanlar 11 yıldan fazladır bu sporlauğraşanlara göre stresle başa çıkmada daha fazla sosyal desteğe başvurmaktadır.The present study aimed to determine the stress coping strategies of female volleyball players and analyze the differences according to age, volleyball experience, and rank at the playoffs. The study was designed as cross-sectional research, and 76 female volleyball players participated. In the study to collect data, the Turkish version of The Stress Coping Strategies Scale was used, and the data were collected in the 2013-14 season 2nd League playoffs. To analyze the data in addition to descriptive statistical methods, ANOVA and Tukey’s Hsd test were used. As a result, it was found that participants mostly chose the self-confidence approach as a strategy to cope with stress. Besides, participants who have been playing volleyball between 6-10 years search for social support more than participants who have been playing for 11 years or more

Investigation of stress management in female volleyball players in terms of coping strategies

Examining 12-14 Age Secondary School Students’ Tendency to Violence doing Active Sport or not

The aim of this study was to investigate secondary school students’ tendency to violence, doing active sport or not. The sampling group of the study was consisted of 101 girls and 99 boys in the total 200 secondary school students in Kütahya city center of whose ages differs between of 12-14. In the study tendency to violence scale, developed by Göka and colleagues, was used as data gathering tool. In the evaluation of the data SPSS package program for Windows was used and after reliability of the scale was assessed One Sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was applied for if the obtained data was showing normal distribution and also as hypotheses tests Independent Samples t Test was applied for pairwise comparisons and One Way ANOVA test was applied for triple or more comparisons. As a result of the study there were no significant differences between students’ tendency to violence according to their ages and sport participation situations, on the other hand there were significant differences according to their class and perceived success in class. This study showed that class and perceived success in class are predictors of tendency to violence

USE OF OUTDOOR SPORTS EQUIPMENT IN PARKS: A QUALITATIVE STUDY ON THE PERCEPTIONS OF FEMALE AND MALE USERS

The use of outdoor sports equipment in parks is increasing day by day. Individuals aim to become fit by doing various physical exercises in these areas. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency and the purposes of use of male and female participants using outdoor sports equipment in the parks of Kütahya Municipality. 71 participants, using outdoor sports equipment in the parks of Kütahya Municipality, selected by random sampling method volunteered in the study. The study was carried out in the form of a qualitative research study, where data were first collected by semi-structured interview technique and transferred to computer as decoded audio files (wav). Thus, the audio files obtained as a result of the interviews were converted into Microsoft Word text documents and these Word documents converted to quantitative values by content analysis method. In the analyses of the data percentage and cross tabulation methods were used. As a result, the frequency and the purposes of use of these areas varies between male and female participants. In addition, the idea of employing sports experts to guide the users in these areas to make sports consciously is another result of the study

Зелений синтез та характеристика наночастинок срібла та заліза отриманих з використанням екстрактів Nerium oleander та їх антибактеріальна та протипухлинна активність

Medicinal plants can be used as reducing agents in the preparation of metal nanoparticles by green synthesis because of the chemotherapeutic and anti-infectious properties of natural compounds. Therefore, this paper reports the green synthesis of silver and iron nanoparticles from leaf and flower extracts of Nerium oleander and their capacity as anticancer and antimicrobial agents. Nanoparticle manufacturing and structural characterization of silver and iron nanoparticles are reported. The formation of nanoparticles is characterized by scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, UV-Vis and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Nanoparticles formation was also investigated the surface charge, particle size, and distribution using zeta sizer analysis by DLS. Green synthesis of silver and iron nanoparticles using N. oleander showed different levels of selective cytotoxicity against K562 (human chronic myeloid leukemia cells) in low concentrations and were not cytotoxic to the HUVEC (human umbilical vein endothelial cells) in the same concentrations. Silver nanoparticles showed antibacterial activity against multidrug pathogens, while iron nanoparticles failed to show such activity. Results of the present research demonstrate the potential use of green synthesized nanoparticles in various biomedicine and pharmaceuticals fields in the future.Лікарські рослини можуть використовуватися як відновники при одержанні наночастинок металів шляхом зеленого синтезу. Отримані наночастинки характеризуються хіміотерапевтичним та протиінфекційним властивостям природних сполук. Зокрема, у цій праці йдеться про зелений синтез наночастинок срібла та заліза з використанням екстрактів листя та квіток Nerium oleander, а також аналізується їх властивості як протипухлинних та протимікробних засобів. Повідомляється про особливості виготовлення наночастинок загалом та структурну характеристику наночастинок срібла та заліза зокрема. Формування наночастинок досліджено за допомогою сканувальної електронної мікроскопії та енергодисперсійної рентгенівської спектроскопії, UV-Vis та інфрачервоної спектроскопії з перетворенням Фур’є (FTIR). Окрім того, також було досліджено поверхневим заряд, розміри і розподілом наночастинок за допомогою DLS аналізу. Зелений синтез наночастинок срібла та заліза з використанням N. oleander показав різні рівні селективної цитотоксичності щодо K562 (клітини хронічної мієлоїдної лейкемії людини) у низьких концентраціях і не був цитотоксичним для HUVEC (ендотеліальні клітини пупкової вени людини) у тих же концентраціях. Наночастинки срібла виявляли антибактеріальну активність по відношенню до мультирезистентних патогенів, тоді як наночастинки заліза не виявляли такої активності. Результати цього дослідження підтверджують потенціал використання наночастинок зеленого синтезу у різних сферах біомедицини та фармацевтики в майбутньому
