摘要:Objective: The study was designed in survey model in order to investigate empathic tendency levels of the individual who were active football referees of Ankara region.Methods: The sample of the study were composed of 49 football referees (8 female referees and 41 male referees) who were football referees in Ankara region for the last one year,were recruited using random sampling method,whose mean age was 23±3.64 years.As the data collection tool;Empathic Tendency Scale (ETS) developed by Dökmen (1988) Scale was used.Empathic Tendency Scale (ETS) was developed to measure individuals’ potentials to empathize in daily life.The lowest score to be obtained from the scale is 20 while the highest score is 100.High scores indicate high level of empathic tendency while low scores indicate low level of empathic tendency.For the statistical analyses of the data;arithmetic means,standard deviations,MannWhitney U and Kruskal Wallis tests were used.Significance level was.05.Results: In the study findings;no statistically significant correlation was detected between gender variable and Empathic Tendency Level.But,there was statistically significant correlation between referee degree and refereeing-year,and Empathic Tendency Level.In light of the study results;Conclusions.Although no statistically significant correlation existed in Empathic Levels in terms of gender,it was seen that those who refereed for ≥ 7 years had higher Empathic Levels than those who refereed for ≤ 6 years and that those who were regional referees had higher Empathic Levels than those who were HIF (Football For Everyone) referees.
