Ergenlerin boş zaman değerlendirme algısı

Bireyin içinde yaşadığı toplumun kültürü, onun yaşam biçimini ve aynı zamanda boş zaman değerlendirme algısını, tutum ve davranışını da etkilemektedir. Bu çalışmada 13 yaş ergenlerinin boş zaman değerlendirme algıları, aktiviteleri, bununla ilgili duygulan, cinsiyet farklılığı bazında irdelenmektedir. Araştırma, İzmir'de (Karşıyaka ve Bornova) Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı'na bağlı üç ilköğretim okulunun 7. sınıf öğrencilerinden 371'ine, iki bölümden oluşan anket formu uygulanarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Açık uçlu hazırlanan 3 soru betimsel analizle değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgulara göre, ergenlerin üçte biri boş zamanı "bir şey yapılmayan, boş boş oturulan zaman" olarak nitelerken; erkeklerin yarısı boş zamanı bilgisayarda geçirmekte, kızlar test çözmekte; genellikle sosyal ve sportif aktivitelere son derece az katılmaktadır. Kolektif kültür değerlerinin başat olduğu Türk toplumunda öncelikle aileden başlayarak, eğitim yoluyla ergenlerin boş zaman değerlendirme konusunda farkmdalıklan ve yönlendirilmeleri sağlanmalıdır.
