نقش تعاملی جنسیت و تیپ‌های شخصیتی در گرایش به تحصیل در رشته تربیت‌بدنی در دانشگاه

هدف از پژوهش حاضر بررسی نقش تعاملی جنسیت و تیپ‌های شخصیتی در گرایش به تحصیل در رشته تربیت‌بدنی در دانشگاه بود. مشارکت کنندگان پژوهش 382 نفر (238 نفر پسر و 144 نفر دختر) متقاضی رشته تربیت بدنی بودند که به روش نمونه‌گیری تصادفی انتخاب شدند. به منظور جمع آوری داده ها از پرسشنامه استاندارد سنخ نمای شخصیتی مایرز بریگز(mbti) و پرسشنامه محقق ساخته گرایش به رشته تربیت بدنی استفاده شد. روایی محتوایی پرسشنامه ها مورد تایید صاحب نظران قرار گرفت. برای تجزیه و تحلیل داده ها از آزمون تحلیل واریانس دوراهه و آزمون تعقیبی بونفرونی استفاده شد. نتایج نشان داد که اثر تعاملی جنسیت و شخصیت بر گرایش متقاضیان به رشته تربیت بدنی معنی دار نیست(0.05

the interplay between gender and personality types in shaping the tendency to study physical education at university

choosing an appropriate field of study is pivotal to individuals’ educational trajectory, career prospects, and their lives as a whole (mokhtar zadeh bazargani & alizadeh, 2019). in this regard, chapman (1974 cited in tang & seng, 2016) posits that this decision is influenced by a combination of intrinsic factors, such as personal interests, aspirations, attitudes, abilities, academic performance, and extrinsic factors, including the influence of significant others like family, friends, and academic advisors, as well as the educational environment. a positive attitude toward the chosen field is a key determinant (erdoğmuş & ergun, 2016), as attitude, shaped by experience, significantly affects how individuals respond to related topics and situations (srivastava et al., 2021). numerous studies have highlighted that students' attitudes towards their field of study significantly impact their educational and career choices (kurniawan et al., 2018; cai et al., 2017). porter (2006) emphasizes that personality traits are key factors influencing these attitudes. personality type, shaped by cultural and personal interactions, including peer groups, hereditary factors, parents, social class, and living environment, provides a framework for evaluating individuals (khosravi & haghayegh, 2018). despite its popularity, there is limited research on the role of personality types in physical education and their impact on students' academic orientation. this study aims to explore the interplay between gender and personality types in shaping the tendency to study physical education at university.methodthe research methodology employed was a descriptive survey conducted in the field. the study's statistical population comprised all applicants participating in the practical exam for the physical education field, held in the nine most sought-after regions: isfahan, ahvaz, babolsar, tabriz, tehran, rasht, shiraz, kermanshah, and mashhad, totaling 5482 participants (including 3413 boys and 2069 girls). based on the krejcie and morgan sample size determination table, 382 individuals were selected as the research sample, with a proportional distribution of 238 boys and 144 girls. data collection was carried out using the myers-briggs personality type indicator (mbti) and a researcher-developed questionnaire assessing attitudes towards the physical education field. descriptive statistics, including frequencies, percentages, means, and standard deviations, were utilized for data analysis. parametric statistical methods, specifically two-way analysis of variance and bonferroni tests at a 0.05 error level, were applied to test the research hypotheses. analyses were conducted using spss version 26 software. resultsthe study revealed that istp and istj were the predominant personality types within the sample population. specifically, istp was the most prevalent among girls, whereas estp was most common among boys. two-way anova results indicated no significant interaction effect between gender and personality on applicants' orientation (p=0.055). furthermore, while the gender variable did not show a significant main effect (p=0.405), the personality variable's main effect was significant (p<0.001). considering the substantial impact of personality on applicants' preference for physical education, a bonferroni test was conducted for pairwise comparisons among personality types. this test identified significant differences in physical education inclination between enfp and isfj, istj, istp, and enfj, as well as between isfj and esfj (p<0.05).
