摘要:The purpose of this research is to examine university students’ leisure time management and perceptions of boredom according to various factors and to put forward the relationship between those two concepts. The test group of the research has been selected with purposive sampling among students from Istanbul University-Cerrahpaşa Faculty of Sport Sciences and 170 “Male” and 82 “Female” students with an average age of 21,71 ± 3,10 have volunteered to take part. In the research “Leisure Time Management Scale,” which has been developed by Wang et al. (2011) and adapted into Turkish by Akgül and Karaküçük (2015), and “Leisure Boredom Scale,” which has been developed by Iso-Ahola and Weisseinger (1990), and adapted to Turkish by Kara et al. (2014), has been used. In order to determine the personal information of participants the percentage and frequency methods; to determine whether the data has normal distribution or not the Shapiro Wilks normalcy test has been applied and after concluding, that the data is conformable with the parametric test conditions, MANOVA and Pearson Correlation tests have been used for data analysis. According to the analysis; in view of gender variable, in both leisure time management and leisure boredom perceptions scale a significant difference has been observed (p<0.05). In view of age variable, in the “Programming” subdimension of leisure time management and in all subdimensions of leisure boredom perception scale a significant difference has been observed (p<0.05). In view of wealth variable, in the “Leisure time manner” and “Programming” subdimensions of leisure time management scale a significant difference has been observed but no difference has been observed in leisure time perception. Finally, a negative and meaningful relationship has been observed between the two scales. In conclusion it is possible to claim, that the leisure time management and boredom perception of participants has had significant differences in view of some variables and that when they can manage their leisure time, they are satisfied.
