Akran Baskısı Düzeyleri ve Cinsiyetlerine Göre Öğrencilerin Risk Alma Davranışı ve Okul Başarılarının İncelenmesi

Bu araştırmada akran baskısı düzeyi ve cinsiyetleri farklı lise öğrencilerinin risk alma davranışı ve okul başarısı arasındaki farklar incelenmiştir. Bu çalışma 2001-2002 öğretim yılında lise II. Sınıfa devam eden 718 öğrenci üzerinde yapılmıştır. Kıran (2002) tarafından akran baskısını belirlemek için Akran Baskısı Ölçeği ve risk alma davranışını belirlemek için Ergenlerde Risk Alma Ölçeği geliştirilmiştir. Okul başarısına ait bilgiler birinci dönem karne notlarından saptanmıştır. Akran baskısı, risk alma ve başarı arasındaki ilişki Pearson korelasyon katsayısı, puanlar arasındaki farklar çift yönlü varyans analizi ve ortalamalar arası farklar ise Tukey HSD testiyle hesaplanmıştır Araştırmanın sonuçları, Akran baskısı ile risk alma davranışı arasında pozitif yönde anlamlı bir ilişki olduğunu ve risk alma davranışının akran baskısı düzeyi ve cinsiyete göre farklılaştığını göstermektedir. Aynı zamanda araştırmanın sonuçları, akran baskısı ile okul başarısı arasında negatif yönde anlamlı bir ilişki bulunduğunu ve okul başarısının akran baskısı düzeyine göre farklılaştığını ancak cinsiyetin bu değişimde etkili olmadığını göstermektedir.

Examining the Students' Risk Taking Behaviour and Achievement According to Their Peer Pressure Levels and Gender

In this research the difference between the students' risk- taking behaviour and achievement according to their peer pressure levels and gender is examined. This study is administered in 2001-2002 academic year on 718 students in their 4th term in high school. Peer Pressure Scale and Risk- Taking Behaviour Scale in Adolescents both of which were developed by Kıran (2002) In addition, achievement information are determined by the first semester grades of students. The relationships between "peer pressure", "risk-taking behaviour and achievement" are examined by calculating the correlation coefficient (r) and the changes in risk-taking behaviour and achievement in respect of peer pressure levels and gender is analysed by two way variance of analysis (F test). The observed differences are controlled by Tukey HSD- test. The facts that, there is a significant relationship existing between peer pressure and risk- taking behaviour, and that, there is a significant difference between both peer pressure levels and gender. In addiction, there is a significant relationship existing between peer pressure and achievement, however both peer pressure levels and gender together does not bring about a significant difference on adolescents achievement.
