This study examined the associations between university students' physical activity, technology use habits, and anxiety related to artificial intelligence (AI) within an academic integrity context. Since the study did not measure verified misconduct, academic integrity was conceptualised as attitudes and self-reported behaviours. Perceptions of uncited AI use and citation practices were therefore defined as the primary integrity-related outcomes. A survey was completed by 1,018 students (TUHS, AIAS), complemented by focus group interviews with 25 participants. Quantitative analyses (t-tests, ANOVA, regression) indicated that regular physical activity was associated with lower self-reported technology dependence and lower AI anxiety. Non-active female students and younger students (18-22) recorded the highest scores. Daily internet use exceeding six hours and social media-focused engagement were associated with greater dependence and anxiety. Qualitative findings provided explanatory depth: physically active students described a more routine, focused, and self-regulated approach, while inactive students emphasised longer screen time, distraction, and stress. These patterns were consistent with the quantitative results. Overall, the findings suggest that balanced technology use, physical activity, and clear ethical awareness (e.g., citation behaviour) are associated with lower technology dependence and AI anxiety. Integrating digital literacy and ethics training with programmes that encourage physical activity may support responsible technology use and integrity-related awareness in higher education. Findings are interpreted as patterns of co-occurrence rather than causal effects, because the cross-sectional design does not allow directionality.

Gönen, Mevlut; Öktem, Tuncay
The future expectations of the youth of university-age can influence many of their decisions like the choice of university till their life plans. Many factors, including the psychological state, can affect the expectation for the future. In this study, the relationship between anxiety, which is one of the mentioned psychological factors, and future expectation was examined. A total of 1026 people from various cities of Turkey were enrolled in the special talent exam held by Bayburt University School of Physical Education and Sports. The state and trait anxiety scale developed by Spielberger and his friends was used.The Turkish reliability and validity study of the scale was conducted by Oner and Le Compte. The trait anxiety dimension of the related scale was used. The Future Visions Scale developed by Ginevra and his friends was used. The Turkish reliability and validity study of the scale was conducted by Akca and his friends. Research data were analyzed using SPSS 25 package program. As a result, there is a moderate negative relationship between the trait anxiety scores of all individuals participating in the research and the optimism and hope sub-dimensions of the future expectations scale, and a moderate positive relationship was found in the pessimism sub-dimension. In the correlation test according to gender, there is a negative moderate relationship in the optimism and hope sub-dimensions, and a positive moderate relationship in the pessimism sub-dimension in both female and male individuals. In the analysis made for another variable, the type of high school graduation, although there was a negative moderate relationship between trait anxiety and optimism and hope sub-dimensions, a positive moderate relationship was found with the pessimism sub-dimension.

The research was designed with correlational research model, one of the quantitative approaches. In the selection of the research group, purposeful sampling approaches and convenience sampling method were applied. The research group consists of 351 weightlifters, 136 women and 215 men. The data were obtained using the Personal Information Form, Sports Leadership Scale (SLS) and Sport Leadership Strength Scale-Other (SLSS-O). Relevant Statistical analysis was applied to interpret the data. Consequently, low-level positive correlations between SLS and all sub-dimension mean scores of SLSS-O were determined.

Sahin, Tolga; Gönen, Mevlut
Social life disruption diminished the physical activity and isolation at home caused psychological stress on people during the coronavirus outbreak. This study applied the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS). Five hundred forty-three participants voluntarily completed the online questionnaire. The additional questions were asked to participants such as age, gender, educational status, spent time for physical activity or exercise, and isolation status. The perceived stress level and Insufficient Self-Efficacy perception (ISE) as a sub-factor of PSS were found statistically significant among the activity level groups. When compared to isolation status, the not isolated group showed a higher perception of stress (PSS total score, ISE, and SDP values) than partial and isolated groups except for SDP in partial isolated groups value. The findings of this study revealed that during isolation days which limiting energy expenditure and increasing mentally stress exercise and physical activity could be effective in decreasing perceived stress.
