【 摘 要 】

The purpose of this study was to investigate high school students’ participation in school-based extracurricular activities. The sample of the study consisted of 309 9-11th graders from three high schools in Adana. Data were collected through the “Extracurricular Activities Participation Questionnaire” and analyzed by means of descriptive statistics, and independent samples t-tests and one-way analyses of variance. Results showed the mean calculated for high school students’ participation in school-based extracurricular activities was 1.78. Most of them reported they rarely or never participate in school-based extracurricular activities. While their participation in school-based extracurricular activities did not significantly differ on their grade level and performance, it significantly differed on some variables. More than half of them reported extracurricular activities in their schools have no contribution to their development of any kind.
