Özet

This study aims to determine the participants’ level of involvement who are engaged in karate in Adana and whether this involvement differs according to the demographic variables of the people. The data were collected from karate clubs in Adana via a survey. Analyses were carried out on 268 valid surveys. According to the analysis results, the participants' involvement in karate shows significant differences according to marital status, age, how many years karate has been practised, how often karate is practised and going out of province for karate purposes. Besides, while the dimension with the highest mean of the scale of involvement in karate sport is \"Attraction\" (x?=4,54), the dimension with the lowest average is \"Identity Expression\" (x?=3.57). Lastly, the general average of the scale items is x?=4,01. Based on this, it can be interpreted that the participants' interest in karate is generally high. These results highlight the positive tendencies of individuals involved in karate and underline the attractiveness and importance of the activity in their lives.
