Detailed Description:
Electronic sports (Esports) has become a branch that started to gain popularity in the gaming community in the early 2000s and that more and more individuals are interested in. Esports players are often called sedentary athletes because gaming requires prolonged sedentary activity. Although studies have examined the physical activity levels of Esports players with questionnaires, they emphasize that the results may be more variable because they do not control for potential confounding factors such as gender, age, game type, and performance level. Among the questionnaires used in the studies, there was no study evaluating the player-specific physical activity level. Therefore, the aim of this study is to validate the Occupational Sitting and Physical Activity Questionnaire in individuals playing Esports. Individuals aged 12-24, who play computer games 3-4 times a week for 2-4 hours professionally or 7-14 hours a week as an amateur, and have the ability to read and understand Turkish will be included in the study. Individuals with severe physical limitations that prevent physical activity and individuals with cognitive impairment will be excluded from the study. Correlation of the scale with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form for construct validity, Young Internet Addiction Test-Short Form (YİBT-SF) and Buss-Perry Aggression Scale will be tested, respectively. In order to determine the test-retest reliability of the Turkish version of the scale, individuals will be asked to fill in the scale again 7-14 days after they first filled out the scale.
