EXAMINATION OF THE COMMUNICATION SKILLS AND TEAM WORKABILITY OF SPORTS STUDENTS ACCORDING TO A RANGE OF VARIABLES

The aim of this study is to examine the communication skills and team workability of students educated in sports education in universities according to a range of variables. In the study, a personal information form was used to identify the university, department, class and sports branches of participants. The communication skills scale developed by Ersanlı and Balcı in 1998 was used to determine communication skills. For the determination of team workability, the Team Workability Scale developed by Tuncer in 2008 was used. 165 Students from Atatürk and Kafkas University participated in the study. Frequency analysis and parametric statistical analyses were used in the study. As a result of the study, it was determined that the participants had moderate levels (X=3,56±,861) of communication skills and the majority of the participants have responsibility (n=105 %64). According to the variables of the communication skills and team workability of the students who studied sports education in universities, the communication skills levels did not change statistically according to the universities and departments variables of the participants. The highest average of communication skills amongst the participants are mental skills. (X=3,86±,414). The lowest average of the communication skills of the participants are behavioral. (X=2,44±,616). On the other hand, it has been determined that the team sports athletes among the participants have high averages on Collaboration and Teamwork in team workability. (n=98 %59,39).
