Environmentally Ethical Attitudes of High School Students with Different Intellectual Development

Abstract

The aim of the study is to compare the echocentric, anthropocentric and environmental antipathic attitudes of high school students with different mental development (mildly mentally retarded, normal and gifted) in terms of different variables The study was carried out in accordance with the screening research model. The data of the study were collected from 459 students in five different institutions selected according to the maximum diversity sampling method located in the city center. Ecocentric, Anthropocentric and Antipathhetic Attitudes toward Environment Scale (EAAATES) was used to collect data. The data were analyzed with SPSS-22 program. Findings showed that the ethical attitudes of high school students with different mental development levels differ significantly in favor of girls in echocentric attitudes and in favor of boys in antipathic attitudes. It was revealed that there were no significant differences in terms of grade level and number of siblings. Significant differences were observed in anthropocentric attitudes according to mother's education level, in echocentric and anthropocentric attitudes according to father's education level, and anthropocentric attitudes according to mental development level. Qualitative studies may be suggested to reveal the reasons why students with mild mental disabilities are more echocentric and less anthropocentric than those with different mental development.

Çalışmanın amacı zihinsel gelişimleri birbirinden farklı olan (hafif zihinsel engelli, normal ve üstün yetenekli) lise dönemindeki öğrencilerin ekosentrik, antroposentrik ve çevreye yönelik antipatik tutumlarının farklı değişkenler açısından karşılaştırılmasıdır. Çalışma, tarama modeline uygun olarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın verileri il merkezinde bulunan, maksimum çeşitlilik örnekleme yöntemine göre seçilen beş farklı kurumdaki 459 öğrenciden toplanmıştır. Verileri toplamak amacıyla Ekosentrik, Antroposentrik ve Çevreye Yönelik Antipatik Tutum Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Veriler SPSS-22 programıyla analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular, zihinsel gelişim düzeyleri farklı lise öğrencilerinin çevreye yönelik etik tutumlarının ekosentrik tutumlarda kızlar lehine, antipatik tutumlarda erkekler lehine anlamlı düzeyde farklılaştığını göstermiştir. Sınıf düzeyi ve kardeş sayısına göre anlamlı farkların olmadığı ortaya çıkmıştır. Anne eğitim düzeyine göre antroposentrik tutumlarda, baba eğitim düzeyine göre ekosentrik ve antroposentrik tutumlarda, zihinsel gelişim düzeyine göre antroposentrik tutumlarda anlamlı farklarla karşılaşılmıştır. Zihinsel gelişimleri farklı olan öğrencilerden, hafif zihinsel engelli öğrencilerin daha ekosentrik ve daha az antroposentrik olmalarının nedenlerini ortaya çıkarmaya yönelik nitel çalışmaların yapılması önerilebilir.
