Socioeconomic Status (SES) Scores of Turkish Statistics Students

Abstract

2007 yılında TÜBİTAK’a sunduğumuz çalışmamızın verilerinden hareketle örnekleme dahil edilen 1794 öğrencinin ailelerinin sosyo-ekonomik statü (SES) puanlarını hesapladık. SES puanlarının analiz edilmesi ile Türkiye’nin farklı üniversitelerindeki öğrencilerin profilleri arasında (aynı zamanda özel üniversite öğrencilerinin profilleri ile kamu üniversitelerinde okuyan öğrencilerin profilleri arasında) bazı anlamlı “farklılıkların” saptanmasının mümkün olduğunu düşünüyoruz. Bu noktanın vurgulanması özellikle üniversite eğitiminin geleceği ile ilgili bazı sorunların tartışılmasında yararlı olacaktır. Son yıllarda yeni üniversitelerin açılması Türkiye’de gündemdedir. Bazı insanlar bu genişleme sürecinin şimdiki üniversite eğitiminde bulunan kalite eksikliğini arttıracağını vurgulamaktadırlar. Bu türden eleştirilerin anlamlı ve mantıksal bir temeli vardır. Bununla birlikte bu süreç daha çok öğrenciye üniversite eğitiminde daha fazla olanaklar getirmektedir. İstatistik öğrencilerinin SES puanları arasında anlamlı farklılıkların gözlenmiş olması açılan yeni üniversitelerin bir tür sosyal hareketlilik olanağı sunabileceğini bizlere düşündürtmüştür.

Based on the findings of the study which we submitted to TUBITAK in 2007, we tried to estimate SES (socioeconomic status) scores of statistics students’ families using some answers on the questionnaire forms of 1794 students in our sample. By analysing SES scores, some sound “distinctions” between the profiles of students from different regions of Turkey (and between those of private university students and public university students as well) may be possible. This point should be emphasized especially in discussing some issues on future of university education. Within last years, opening new universities is on the current agenda of Turkey. Some people emphasize that this expansionary process will increase the lack of quality present in university education. All these critisicms have sound and logical bases. On the other hand, this process itself brings more students more opportunities in university education. The significant differences between SES scores of statistics students lead us to think that opening new universities can create some opportunities for a kind of social mobility.
