Araştırmanın amacı, Paris Yaz Olimpiyat Oyunları’nda kelebek ve kurbağalama stilde eleme, yarı final ve final derece ortalamalarının analiz edilmesidir. Bu kapsamda kelebek ve kurbağalama stil 100 ve 200 metre yüzme yarışlarında finale kalan yüzücülerin (16 kadın, 16 erkek) dereceleri incelenmiştir. Toplanan verilerin analizi SPSS 26.00 programıyla yapılarak, p değeri <0.05 olarak belirlenmiştir. Shapiro-Wilk testi aracılığıyla normallik dağılımları analiz edilen verilerin ortalama değerleri, bağımlı örneklem t test aracılığıyla incelendi (p<0.05). Yapılan analiz sonuçlarına göre kelebek stil yüzme derecelerinde her iki metraj yarışında da kadın yüzücülerin eleme ve yarı final sürelerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark olduğu, erkeklerin ise hem eleme ve yarı final hem de eleme ve final sürelerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık olduğu tespit edildi (p<0.05). Kurbağalama stil yüzme derecelerinde ise 100 metre yarışlarında erkek yüzücülerin eleme ve yarı final sürelerinde, 200 metre yarışlarında ise kadınların eleme ve yarı final, erkeklerin ise hem eleme ve yarı final hem de eleme ve final sürelerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık tespit edildi (p<0.05). Sonuç olarak, Paris Yaz Olimpiyat Oyunları’nda kelebek ve kurbağalama stilde kadın ve erkek yüzücülerin eleme, yarı final ve final yarışlar sürelerinde farklılıkların olduğu, 100 metre 200 metre için ilk turda en hızlı sürelerde yüzerken, son turlarda daha yavaş yüzdükleri tespit edilmiştir.

Abstract The aim of this study was to analyze the average heats, semifinal, and final times of male and female swimmers at the Paris Summer Olympic Games. The investigation focused on 16 female and 16 male finalists in the 100 m and 200 m butterfly and breaststroke events. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 26.00, with significance set at p < 0.05. The normality of the data was confirmed via the Shapiro-Wilk test. Paired sample t-tests were used to compare mean times between rounds for male and female swimmers.  Results showed that statistically significant differences in butterfly event times between qualifying and semifinal rounds for female swimmers, and between qualifying, semifinal, and final rounds for male swimmers (p<0.05). In breaststroke, significant differences were found between qualifying and semifinal rounds for male swimmers in the 100 m event, and between qualifying and semifinal rounds for females, as well as qualifying, semifinal, and final rounds for males in the 200 m event (p<0.05). In conclusion, significant variations were identified in qualifying, semifinal, and final times for both male and female swimmers in butterfly and breaststroke events at the Paris Summer Olympics. Additionally, swimmers tended to achieve their fastest times in the first laps and slower times in the final laps of 100 m and 200 m races.
