For this reason, 21 male National Ice Hockey players, aged between 18-25, were recruited for the study. The conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used on the genotype rs1799752 polymorphism. The VO2max values were calculated by using the 20m Shuttle Run tests. The num- bers and percentages of the II, ID and DD genotypes were 9 (%43), 7 (%33), and 5 (%24), respectively. The allelic distribution for I and D alleles was found to be 25 (60%) and 17 (40%), respectively. The mean VO2max of all the athletes was calculated as 47.52 ml. The mean VO2max of the II, ID, and DD genotypes were 49.74ml, 47.34 ml, and 46.43 ml, respectively. We found that the oxygen utilization capacity increased from the DD genotype to the II genotype. However, this increase was not statistically significant (p> 0.05). In order to confirm our findings, it is recommended that larger prospective studies depending on the effect of the relevant polymorphisms needed to be carried out.

The research population consisted of the U18 women’s ice hockey national team players in Turkey. The sample comprised 27 athletes randomly selected from the target population based on voluntariness. A questionnaire consisting of two parts was used as a data collection tool. The first part of the questionnaire included a personal information form developed by the researcher to determine the characteristics of the participants, such as age, education level, sports history, training frequency, whether they missed any ice hockey matches due to COVID-19, and history of injury. In the second part, the Athlete Burnout Questionnaire, developed by Raedeke and Smith in 2001 and adapted to Turkish by Kelecek et al. in 2016, was administered to measure the athletic burnout levels of the participants. The research findings revealed that the athletes’ burnout levels were generally low, but those with a history of disability lasting longer than three months and those that missed ice hockey matches due to COVID-19 had higher burnout levels compared to the remaining participants.

The data obtained from the data collection tools were subjected to statistical analyses using SPSS v. 26 software. Parametrical statistics were used in line with the results of the data normality test. According to the research findings, the participants who used smartwatches had a significantly higher score in the fitness/energy release subscale of PMQ (x2.14±.466) compared to those that did not use smartwatches (x1.79±.351) (p=.036). According to the point-biserial correlation analysis, there was a statistically significant, positive, and strong correlation between using smartwatches and motivation to participate in sports for the fitness/energy release subscale (rpb=.694, p<.001).

Data analysis included frequency analysis, descriptive statistics, Mann Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis tests to examine and to compare the demographic information of participants, organizational justice and organizational silence levels, managerial status, age and working age (length of service). Furthermore, correlation analysis was conducted in order to measure the correlation between organizational justice and organizational silence. Finding: The average organizational justice (X=2.94±.978) and organizational silence (X=3.35±.884) scores of the participants were found to be lower than satisfactory level in the result of the study. Conclusion: The results of the study indicated that there was a statistically significant negative correlation between organizational justice and organizational silence levels (r=-.532, p<0.01).
