Üniversite Öğrencileri Arasında Din ve Sosyal Sapma

Türkiye’de din ve sosyal sapma ilişkisi konusunda çalışmalar çok azdır. Varolan çalışmalarda salt din ve sosyal sapma ilişkisini araştırmak amacıyla yapılmamıştır. Bu çalışmanın verileri, 974 üniversite öğrencilerinin bizzat kendilerince doldurulan soru kâğıdı yoluyla elde edilmiştir. Din kavramı şu değişkenler aracılığıyla ölçülmüştür: Ailenin dindarlığı, anne/ablanın öğrencinin dini davranışlarını kontrolü, öğrencinin dindarlığı, bu dünyalılık/öbür dünyalılık ve farklı mezheplere toleranstır. Sosyal sapma kavramı ise şiddet, madde kullanımı, yolsuzluk, ekonomik, akademik ve kurbansız suçlardan oluşmaktadır. Genelde, din ile sosyal sapma davranışları arasındaki ilişki zayıf, tezat ve tutarlı (tekrar eden) değildir. Araştırmanın en ilginç bulgusu, öğrencinin fala baktırması ve sosyal sapma davranışları arasında tutarlı ve pozitif bir ilişkinin var olmasıdır.

Religion and Social Deviance Among The Univeriıty Students

Studies on the relationship between social deviance and religion are very few in Turkey. The existing studies did not aim especially to examine the link between social deviance and religion. Data obtained from a sample of 974 university students by using a self-reported survey. Religion was measured by such variables as family religiosity, maternal control over students’ religious act, religiosity of student, being this worldly or other worldly, and tolerance towards brotherhoods. Social deviance consisted of violence, substance use, corruption, economic, academic, and victimless crimes. In general, the relationship between religion and deviant acts is weak, contradictory, and not consistent. The most interesting finding of the study is that there exists a consistent, positive relationship between fortunetelling and deviant behavior.
