Akademik Benlik Kavramı ve Örgütsel Faktörlerin Akademik Başarı Üzerindeki Etkisi

Üniversite düzeyinde öğrenci başarısı bir dizi değişkenden etkilenmektedir. Akademik benlik kavramı ve örgütsel faktörler bu değişkenlerden önemli olanları arasında yer alır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, akademik benlik kavramının ve örgütsel faktörlerin üniversite öğrencilerinin akademik başarıları üzerindeki etkisini ve bu durumun cinsiyet, yıl, kalınan yer, anne-baba eğitim durumu, tercih değişkenlerine göre farklılık gösterip göstermediğini incelemektir. Araştırmanın örneklemini Ankara ili merkez ilçelerde bulunan devlet üniversitelerinde okuyan öğrencilerden rastgele olarak seçilmiş 460 öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Veriler Matovu Akademik Benlik Kavramı Ölçeği (MABKÖ) ve Üniversite Öğrencilerinin Akademik Başarılarını Etkileyen Örgütsel Faktörler Ölçeği (ÖBEÖFÖ) aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Sonuç olarak, cinsiyet, üniversite yılı ve kalınan yer, akademik benlik kavramı ve Yönetsel Hizmet ve Uygulamalar ve Fiziksel Ortam ve Donanım faktörlerinin öğrencilerin akademik başarısını olumlu olarak etkilediği bulunmuştur. Akademik benlik kavramı başta olmak üzere, akademik başarıyı etkilediği düşünülen farklı öğrenci özelliklerinin birlikte değerlendirildiği çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
