摘要:The physical education course, which is an indispensable element of education, does not only provide students with the development of physical aspects; they also play an important role in their cognitive, social and emotional development. The knowledge and skills that are based on physical education lessons during formal education are becoming more meaningful with extracurricular sport activities carried out in conjunction with specialists within a specific plan and program. Extracurricular sports activities function as complementary to the physical education course. The aim of this study is to determine the attitudes of parents towards physical education lessons and extracurricular sports activities. The study was designed with an irrelevant screening model from the quantitative research approach. The research group was composed of parents of students in different high schools (Anatolian High School, Science High School, Sports High School, Fine Arts High School) and class levels (9, 10, 11 and 12) in Kırıkkale. Data were obtained by means of "Parental Attitude Scale for Extracurricular Activities" developed by Yilmaz and Güven (2015) and "Physical Education Course Attitude Scale for Parents" developed by Öncü ve Güven (2011). In the data analysis was used t-test, one way variance analysis, simple linear regression analysis and Pearson Correlation test. Confirmatory Factor Analysis was conducted to provide evidence of the validity of the measurement tools. As a result, physical education is a predictor of extracurricular sport activities. 41.1% of the extracurricular sports activities explain the physical education lesson. While parents' attitudes towards physical education course and extracurricular sport activities did not differ according to educational status, parent’s attitudes differed according to the sporting situation, the class level and school type of children.
