Özet

This study aims to reveal whether personal justice perceptions of students who study at the Faculty of Physical and Sports Sciences has influence over their decision making process. We are observing that just world perceptions, self-confidence at decision making, careful, aversive and panic decision making processes of students do not exhibit difference based on their sport activities. On the other hand, it is observed that there is significant difference with the dilatory decision making factor in regard to sport activities of students. There is significant difference between students at the Department of Coaching and the ones at the Department of Recreation in terms of dilatory decision making factor. Accordingly, mean score of students who study at the department of coaching concerning dilatory decision making is significantly higher than the mean score of students from the department of recreation. A positive but insignificant relationship is observed between students’ personal just world perception their self-confidence in decision making process. Thus, it can be concluded that as students’ just world perception enhances their self-confidence in decision making process increases slightly.
