EXAMINATION OF LEISURE TIME PHYSICAL ACTIVITY CONSTRAINTS OF INDIVIDUALS WHO BENEFITED FROM PROBATION

The purpose of this study is to determine the constraints that prevented people who work at probation from participating in leisure time physical activities. This study is a quantitative research and its population consists of approximately 7000 sentenced people. Convenient sampling in non-random methods is preferred by choosing the sample. Time-Physical Activity Constraints, which is developed by ？cal, is used in data collection to determine barriers participating in leisure time physical activities. Descriptive statistics such as frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation etc. are preferred to define demographic information of participants in data analyze. One way Anova and independent samples t test were conducted with subscales of leisure time physical activity constraints of participants to test orientation, income, education and age differences. One of Post Hoc tests LSD analyze is performed to be able to establish which groups have the mentioned difference in accordance with one way Anova outcomes. As a result; when the subscale ‘’physical perception ‘’ is evaluated in accordance with orientation, married people have more barriers; the subscale ‘’physical perception and family’’ are evaluated in accordance with education level, low education indicated more barriers, the subscale ‘’income’’ is evaluated in accordance with all subscales except physical perception, low income indicated more significant difference. But when all subscales are evaluated in accordance with age, no significant difference is detecte
