Abstract

This study aims to determine the future expectation of university students studying in the field of sports sciences and to examine how it affects their attitudes toward brain migration. The "Brain Migration Scale", developed by Öncü et al. (2018), was used to evaluate the attitude toward brain migration, and the "Future Expectation Scale", developed by Şimşek (2012), was used to measure the future expectation of the students. The approval of the ethics committee was obtained for the study. This program data was collected by applying Sports in different universities with Sports Management program in Istanbul. 299 students responded to the survey questions via the google form link. The data were analyzed with SPSS 25.0 package program. It was determined that the data showed normal distribution. Multiple regression analysis and Pearson Product-Moment correlation tests were applied to the research data. According to the results of the research, it was found that there are significant and positive relationships between the participants' attitudes towards brain migration and their personal and professional future expectations, educational, economic, and total future expectations. On the other hand, it has been determined that there is no significant relationship between students' attitudes toward brain migration and their expectations for a social future. When looking at the impact force, it was seen that students' economic future expectation was more effective in predicting the attitude toward brain migration than their future expectation of education. In this context, it is important to ensure economic stability and improve working conditions in our country.

Keywords: Brain migration, sports, students, future expectations.
