Turizm Eğitimi Alan Lisans Öğrencilerinin Öz Yeterliklerinin Akademik Başarı ve Bireysel Özellikler Açısından İncelenmesi

Bu araştırmanın amacı, turizm eğitimi almakta olan lisans öğrencilerinin öz yeterlik algılarının bireysel özelliklerine ve akademik başarı düzeylerine göre farklılık gösterip göstermediğini tespit etmektir. Veri toplama aracı olarak anket formu kullanılmıştır. Öğrencilerin öz yeterlik düzeylerini ölçmek için Sherer vd. (1982) tarafından geliştirilen ve Yıldırım ve İlhan (2010) tarafından Türkçe geçerlilik ve güvenilirlik çalışması yapılan Genel Öz Yeterlik Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın evrenini, lisans düzeyinde turizm eğitimi almakta olan öğrenciler oluşturmaktadır. Basit tesadüfi örnekleme yöntemine göre, rastgele seçilen öğrencilerden toplanan 514 adet kullanılabilir anket formu analize tabi tutulmuştur. Verilerin analizinde yüzde ve frekans analizlerinin yanı sıra, araştırma hipotezlerinin test edilmesine yönelik bağımsız örneklemler için t testi ve varyans analizi (Anova) kullanılmıştır. Bulgulara göre, öğrencilerin öz yeterlik düzeylerinin mezun olunan lise, bölüme yerleşme isteği ve herhangi bir öğrenci topluluğuna üye olma durumuna göre anlamlı bir farklılık gösterdiği tespit edilmiştir. Öğrencilerin genel öz yeterlik durumları ile akademik başarı düzeyleri arasında ise anlamlı bir farklılık tespit edilmemiş olmakla birlikte (p>0,05), öz yeterlik toplam değerlerine göre, öğrencilerin akademik başarı düzeyleri yükseldikçe, genel öz yeterlik puanlarının da arttığı dikkat çekmektedir.  

Examination of the Self-Efficacy of Undergraduate Students in Tourism Education in terms of Academic Achievement and Individual Characteristics

who are receiving tourism education differs according to their individual characteristics and academic achievement levels. A questionnaire is used as a data collection instrument. General Self-Efficacy Scale is used which was developed by Sherer et al. (1982) and the validity and reliability in Turkish was tested by Yıldırım and İlhan (2010), to measure students’ self-efficacy levels. The population of the study consists of students who are studying tourism at the undergraduate level. A total of 514 questionnaires were analyzed. In addition to the percentage and frequency analyzes, the hypotheses of the study were tested by using independent samples t test and Anova analysis. According to the study results, it is found that the self-efficacy levels of the participants showed a significant difference according to the graduated high school, the desire to study in the department and the membership status to the student societies. In addition, there is no significant difference between the students’ general self-efficacy and academic achievement levels (p>0,05). However, considering the total self-efficacy values, as the academic achievement levels of students increase, their general self-efficacy scores have also increased.
