Abstract
Bu çalışmada, veteran tenisçi ve sedanterlerin kognitif performans düzeylerini belirlemek, farklı değişkenlere göre ilişki düzeylerini incelemek amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmaya 45-55 yaş arası 20 erkek veteran tenisçi (Xyaş=48,8±3,8) ve 46-55 yaş arası 20 erkek sedanter (Xyaş=50,9 ±4) gönüllü olarak katılmıştır. Katılımcılara mental rotasyon testi, parmak vuru testi, iz sürme A-B testi, görsel ve işitsel reaksiyon zamanı testi ile bilişsel esneklik ölçeği uygulanmıştır. Verilerin normal dağılım gösterip göstermediği Kolmogorov-Smirnov testi ile belirlenmiştir. Değişkenlerin gruplar arası karşılaştırmalarında ise bağımsız örneklem t- testi kullanılmıştır. Analiz sonuçlarına göre, veteran tenisçilerin mental rotasyon süre, parmak vuru ortalamalarında sedanterlere göre istatistiksel düzeyde anlamlı bir fark belirlenmiştir (p<0,05). Veteran tenisçilerin görsel reaksiyon zamanı fix intervalde, raslantısal intervalde ve seçmeli reaksiyon zamanı raslantısal interval reaksiyon zamanlarında yine sedanterlere göre istatistiksel düzeyde anlamlı bir fark belirlenmiştir (p<0,01). Sonuç olarak; veteran tenisçilerin mental rotasyon ortalama süre, parmak vuru sayısı, seçmeli raslantısal interval reaksiyon zamanı ortalama değerlerinin daha iyi olduğu, bilişsel esneklik ölçeği ortalama puanlarının ise sedanterlerle benzer ortalama puanlarına sahip oldukları belirlenmiştir.
In this study, it was aimed to investigate the cognitive performance of veteran tennis players and sedentary players. 20 male veteran tennis players (Xage=48.8±3.8) between the ages of 45-55 and 20 male sedentary (Xage=50.9±4) male tennis players between the ages of 46-55 voluntarily participated in the study. Mental rotation test, finger tapping test, trail making A-B test, visual and auditory reaction time test and cognitive flexibility inventory were applied to the participants. Whether the data showed normal distribution or not was determined by the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Independent sample t-test was used for the intergroup comparisons of the variables. According to the results of the analysis, a statistically significant difference was determined in the mental rotation time and finger tapping averages of veteran tennis players compared to sedentary tennis players (p<0,05). A statistically significant difference was determined in the visual reaction time of the veteran tennis players in the fixed interval, in the random interval and in the reaction time in the selective reaction time in the random interval compared to the sedentary players (p<0,01). As a result; It was determined that the mean values of mental rotation mean time, number of finger taps, selective random interval reaction time of veteran tennis players were better, and mean scores of cognitive flexibility scale had similar mean scores with sedentary players.
