Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Canan Koca"
- Canan Koca's research primarily focuses on the intersection of physical education, physical activity, and gender dynamics within educational settings, particularly among Turkish populations in various contexts, including migration and university life.
- Key findings reveal that self-presentational concerns and socio-demographic factors significantly influence physical activity levels, eating attitudes, and preferences for coeducational versus single-sex physical education classes among adolescents and university students.
- The studies indicate that while Turkish migrants exhibit lower physical activity levels compared to host populations, educational environments and gender-related beliefs play a crucial role in shaping attitudes towards physical education and sport participation among students.
