Determination of trauma levels of pre-service teachers of the Faculty of Sports Sciences after an earthquake

2. ABSTARCT DETERMINATION OF POST-EARTHQUAKE TRAUMA LEVELS OF SPORTS SCIENCES FACULTY TEACHER CANDIDATES The aim of this research is to determine the post-earthquake trauma levels of prospective teachers of the Faculty of Sports Sciences. In the research, the screening model, which is one of the quantitative research methods, was used, and the post-earthquake trauma levels of the prospective teachers of the Faculty of Sports Sciences were scanned according to their socio-demographic characteristics. The universe of the research is 480 students receiving education at the Faculty of Sports Sciences in the provinces of Malatya, Elazığ and Adıyaman. Direct sampling method was used to determine the sample group of the research. In line with the purpose of the research, 360 prospective teachers of the Faculty of Sports Sciences (120 prospective teachers from each province) were reached from the provinces of Malatya, Elazığ and Adıyaman. The Post-Earthquake Trauma Level Determination Scale developed by Tanhan and Kayri was used as the data collection tool in the research. SPSS 22 statistical analysis program was used in the analysis of the research data. Cronbach Alpha analysis was conducted in order to determine the internal consistency level of the research data set. In the normality analysis, it was determined that the research data were normally distributed and parametric analyses (t Test, Anova Test) were applied, and the TUKEY test was applied to reveal where the significant difference between the variables originated. In the analysis of the research data, the significance level was taken as (p<0.05) for all tests. In the research, it was determined that the level of emotional and sleep problems of female students was higher than male students, that the students between the ages of 21-23 and in the 2nd year were higher than the students who were younger and had a lower level of education, and that the cognitive structure level of students who received earthquake training was higher than the students who did not receive earthquake training. The study determined that the post-earthquake trauma level of the students was low. As a result of the research, it was determined that gender, age, educational status and receiving disaster training were effective in the post-earthquake trauma level of sports science faculty teacher candidates, while it was determined that being involved in a sports branch did not cause a difference in the post-earthquake trauma level.
