摘要：AbstractThe Vocational Maturity is one of the necessary conditions of person to be good at his chosen profession. Individuals who have undergone professional development process and have decided a profession have vocational maturity. The aim of the study was to examine the Vocational Maturity (VM) points of School of Physical Education and Sports (PESS) students comparatively. A total 159 college students who educated Teacher Education (TED, n=40), Coaching Education (CED, n=40), Sport Management (SMD, n=39) and Recreation (RD, n=40) departments were voluntarily participated in the study. In order to find out student's VM level was used VM scale which is constituted 40 items was used to determine attitude about choice of profession of them. The scale was randomly used almost %50 total sizes of class. As a result of VM scale; if the VM points are less than 143, VM level is below the %50; if VM points are among 143-155, VM level is in the range of %50-75 and if VM points are more than 155, VM level can be assessed as high. According to the research results, VM points of TED (154.15±10.49) and RD (151.65±7.23) was found more than 143 but SMD (135.56±6.90) and CED (134.57±9.42) VM points were found less than 143. According to the results of comparative statistics, VM points of TED students are higher than points of SMD and CED students significantly (P<0.01). There is no any similar significant differences between points of TED and RD students (P>0.05). Furthermore, VM points of RD students are significantly higher than SMD and CED students (P<0.01). In conclusion, this outcome might be originated from the higher vocational replacement probability of TED students than other department after graduation.
