ULUSLARARASI ÖĞRENCİLERİN YER BAĞLILIĞINI ANLAMAK: KASTAMONU KENTİ ÖRNEĞİ
Uluslararası öğrenci hareketliliği dünyada önemli bir büyüme ivmesi içerisindedir ve bu durum Türkiye için de geçerlidir. Bu çalışma, Kastamonu Üniversitesi’nde öğrenim gören uluslararası öğrencilerin yer bağlılıklarını anlamaya çalışmaktadır. Uluslararası öğrencilerin yer bağlılıkları, Scannell & Gifford tarafından geliştirilen üçlü model temelinde ele alınmaktadır. Çalışma kapsamında 14 farklı ülkeden 20 uluslararası öğrenci ile gerçekleştirilen görüşmelerden yararlanılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgulara göre, uluslararası öğrenciler bir yer bağlılığına sahiptir ancak bu bağlılığın dinamikleri değişkenlik göstermektedir. Arkadaşlık ilişkileri, öğrenci ve yerel halkın sıcak yaklaşımı, kentin sakinliği, muhafazakar bir yer olması gibi dinamikler yer bağlılığında olumlu etmen olarak öne çıkarken, memleket ve aile özlemi, dil, iklim şartları, kentin küçüklüğü, iş imkanlarının yetersizliği gibi etmenler de bağlılığı olumsuz etkilemiştir. Bununla birlikte mekânsal ölçeklere göre yer bağlılığı farklılık göstermektedir. Mekânsal birimler arasında katılımcıların çoğunluğu Kastamonu şehrine olan bağlılığı öne çıkarırken, Türkiye ve Kastamonu Üniversitesi sırasıyla bunu takip etmektedir.
UNDERSTANDING PLACE ATTACHMENT OF INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS: THE CASE OF KASTAMONU CITY
International student mobility is in an important growth momentum in the world and this is also true for Turkey. This study tries to understand the place attachment of international students studying at Kastamonu University. Place attachment of international students is discussed on the basis of the tripartite model developed by Scannell & Gifford. Within the scope of the study, interviews with 20 international students from 14 different countries were used. According to the findings, international students have a place attachment, but the dynamics of this attachment vary. While dynamics such as friendship relations, the warm approach of students and local people, the calmness of the city and being a conservative place stand out as positive factors in place attachment, factors such as longing for homeland and family, language, climate conditions, smallness of the city and lack of job opportunities negatively affected attachment. However, place attachment differs according to spatial scales. Among the spatial units, the majority of the participants emphasize their attachment to the city of Kastamonu, followed by Turkey and Kastamonu University, respectively.
