TUTAR, Muammer. Fitness Sporu Yapan Bireylerin Stres ve Mutluluk Düzeylerinin 
İncelenmesi, Yüksek Lisans Tezi, Ardahan, 2023.
Mutluluk tarih boyunca bireylerin elde etmeye çalıştığı iyi hislerdir, stres ise insanların 
uzak durmaya çalıştığı kötü hislerdir. Günlük hayatımızda olumlu ve olumsuz durumlar 
bireyin stres ve mutluluk kaynaklarını meydana getirmektedir. Sağlıklı bir bedene sahip 
olmak isteyen bireyler fitness ve spor alanıyla ilgilenmektedir. Araştırmamızda fitness 
sporu yapan bireylerin stres ve mutluluk düzeylerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Araştırma, basit tesadüfi örnekleme yöntemi ile 236 erkek ve 160 kadın olmak üzere 
toplam da 396 kişi üzerinde incelenmiştir. Araştırma verileri, kişisel bilgi formu, 
algılanan stres ölçeği ve mutluluk ölçeği çevrimiçi uygulama (Google Anket Formu) 
kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Ölçme araçlarından elde edilen veriler kullanılarak iç tutarlık 
katsayıları hesaplanmış olup araştırmanın güvenirliği incelenmiştir. Verilere yapılan uç 
değer analizi sonucunda anketten ele edilen puanlar ile istatistiksel analizler 
uygulanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde SPSS 24 paket programı kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın 
anlamlılık düzeyi %95 (p<0.05) olacak şekilde analizler uygulanmıştır. İstatistiki 
analizler için verilerin normallik ve homojenlik varsayımları kontrol edilmiştir. 
Çalışmada iki grup arasında fark olup olmadığını incelemek için t testi, ikiden fazla grup 
için ANOVA analizi ve değişkenler arasındaki ilişkiyi görmek için Pearson korelasyon 
katsayısı kullanılmıştır. Katılımcıların algılanan stres düzeylerinde cinsiyet, medeni 
durum, eğitim seviyesi değişkenleri ve mutluluk düzeylerinde cinsiyet, eğitim seviyesi, 
yaş ve fitness antrenman süresi değişkenleri istatistiki olarak anlamlı farklılık 
göstermemektedir. Evli katılımcıların mutluluk düzeyi bekarlara oranla daha yüksek 
olduğu, yaş arttıkça algılan stres düzeyinin arttığı, hiç fitness antrenmanı yapmayan 
katılımcıların algılanan stres düzeylerinin diğer durumlara oranla daha fazla olduğu, dış 
görünüş/estetik amaçlı fitness antrenmanı yapan katılımcıların algılanan stres düzeyi, 
sağlık amaçlı fitness antrenmanı yapan katılımcılara oranla daha yüksek olduğu ve sağlık 
amaçlı fitness antrenmanı yapan katılımcıların daha mutlu olduğu sonucu elde edilmiştir. 
Katılımcıların fitness antrenman öncesi stres yaptıkları görülmüştür. Bu durum antrenman öncesi stres yapan katılımcıların mutluluk düzeyini düşürmektedir. 
Antrenman sonrası mutlu olan katılımcıların daha az stres algıladıkları görülmüştür. 
Antrenmanın zorluk seviyesine göre katılımcılar daha fazla stres algılamakta ancak 
antrenmanın zorluk seviyesine göre stres olmayan katılımcıların daha mutlu oldukları 
tespit edilmiştir. Antrenmandaki gelişmeyi gören katılımcılar daha fazla mutlu olmakta 
dolayısıyla katılımcıların stresi azalmaktadır. Fitness sporu yapan kişilerin stres düzeyleri 
azaldıkça, mutluluk seviyelerinde artma olmaktadır. Araştırmanın sonucunda fitness ve 
spor yapan bireylerin stres duygusunun azaldığı mutluluk duygusunun arttığı söylenebilir. 
Fitness ve spor hayatımızda her yönü ile olumlu hisler sağladığı, olumsuz hisleri de 
azalttığı sonucuna varılmıştır.

ABSTRACT
TUTAR Muammer. Investigation of Stress and Happiness Levels of Individuals Playing 
Fitness Sports, Master Thesis, Ardahan, 2023.
Happiness is the good feelings that individuals have tried to achieve throughout history, 
while stress is the bad feelings that people have tried to stay away from. Positive and 
negative situations in our daily life create sources of stress and happiness for the 
individual. Individuals who want to have a healthy body are interested in fitness and 
sports. In our study, it was aimed to determine the stress and happiness levels of 
individuals who do fitness sports.The research was conducted on a total of 396 people, 
236 men and 160 women, using simple random sampling method. Research data were 
collected using a personal information form, perceived stress scale and happiness scale 
online application (Google Questionnaire). The internal consistency coefficients were 
calculated using the data obtained from the measurement tools and the reliability of the 
research was examined. As a result of the extreme value analysis made on the data, the 
scores obtained from the questionnaire and statistical analyzes were applied. SPSS 24 
package program was used in the analysis of the data. The analyzes were applied in such 
a way that the significance level of the research was 95% (p<0.05). Normality and 
homogeneity assumptions of the data were checked for statistical analysis. In the study, 
t-test was used to examine whether there was a difference between the two groups, 
ANOVA analysis was used for more than two groups, and Pearson's correlation 
coefficient was used to see the relationship between the variables.The variables of gender, 
marital status, education level in the perceived stress levels of the participants and the 
variables of gender, education level, age and fitness training duration in the happiness 
levels do not show statistically significant differences. The happiness level of the married 
participants was higher than the single ones, the perceived stress level increased as the 
age increased, the perceived stress level of the participants who did not do any fitness 
training was higher than the other situations, the perceived stress level of the participants 
who did fitness training for appearance/aesthetic purposes, and those who did fitness 
training for health purposes. It was concluded that the participants were higher than the 
participants and the participants who did fitness training for health purposes were happier.

a way that the significance level of the research was 95% (p<0.05). Normality and 
homogeneity assumptions of the data were checked for statistical analysis. In the study, 
t-test was used to examine whether there was a difference between the two groups, 
ANOVA analysis was used for more than two groups, and Pearson's correlation 
coefficient was used to see the relationship between the variables.The variables of gender, 
marital status, education level in the perceived stress levels of the participants and the 
variables of gender, education level, age and fitness training duration in the happiness 
levels do not show statistically significant differences. The happiness level of the married 
participants was higher than the single ones, the perceived stress level increased as the 
age increased, the perceived stress level of the participants who did not do any fitness 
training was higher than the other situations, the perceived stress level of the participants 
who did fitness training for appearance/aesthetic purposes, and those who did fitness 
training for health purposes. It was concluded that the participants were higher than the 
participants and the participants who did fitness training for health purposes were happier. 
It was observed that the participants stressed before the fitness training. This situation 
reduces the happiness level of the participants who stress before the training. It was 
observed that participants who were happy after the training perceived less stress. 
According to the difficulty level of the training, the participants perceive more stress, but 
according to the difficulty level of the training, the participants without stress were found 
to be happier. Participants who see the improvement in the training are more happy, so 
the stress of the participants is reduced. As the stress levels of people who do fitness 
sports decrease, there is an increase in their happiness levels. As a result of the research, 
it can be said that individuals who do fitness and sports have a decreased sense of stress 
and an increased sense of happiness. It has been concluded that it provides positive 
feelings in every aspect of our fitness and sports life and reduces negative feelings.
