DOĞRUM SIRASININ BAŞARIYA ETKİSİ: KAMU ÇALIŞANLARI ÖRNEKLEMİ ÜZERİNE BİR ARAŞTIRMA

Doğrum sırası araştırmaları Adler'den (1920) beri artan bir akademik ilgi çekmektedir. Son 20 yıllık dönemde birçok araştırmacı doğrum sırasının zekâya, kariyer tercihine ve başarıya etkisini irdelemiştir. Bu araştırmanın amacı, doğum sırası ile katılımcıların başarı arasındaki ilişkiyi inceleyen bir araştırmanın temel bulgularını ortaya koymaktır. İstatistiksel analizler, katılımcıların ALES sonuçları açısından doğrum sırası ile başarı arasında anlamlı bir ilişki olduğunu göstermiştir. İkinci olarak, katılımcıların ALES sonuçları arasında cinsiyet ve doğum sırası açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık tespit edilmiştir. Regresyon analizleri, aile büyüklüğünün katılımcıların başarı skorlarının belirleyicisi olmadığını ortaya koymuştur

The Effect Of Birth Order On Achievement: A Study On A Sample Of Public Employees

Birth order studies have received an increasing academic interest since Adler (1920). During the last several decades a number of researchers have investigated the influence of birth order, contributing to the intelligence, career preferences and success. The purpose of the present paper is to summary key findings from a study on the correlations between birth order and the participants’ achievement of certain indicators in a Turkish sample. Briefly, the statistical analysis concluded that birth order was significantly correlated with achievement on the ASGT scores. Secondly, the analysis of variance revealed that there were statistically significant differences between the ASGT scores of participants by gender and birth order. Finally, the regression analysis suggested that family size was found to be an insignificant predictor of the participants’ achievement scores
