UNIVERSITY STUDENTS’ ATTITUDES TOWARDS TRADE UNIONS

Year 2014, Issue: 49, 0 - , 20.10.2014

Abstract

The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between attitudes to trades unions and gender, family membership of trades unions and area of education. The study sample comprised 368 final year university students. In the data analysis, frequency distribution, descriptive statistics, reliability analysis and Student’s t-test were used. Support of the students for unionisation was determined as mean 4.63±1.03. Another significant finding of the study was that there was a significant relationship between the field of study and attitude towards trades unions. No significant relationship was determined in terms of gender. These findings directly indicate the critical importance for unionisation of the attitudes towards trades unions of students who are not as yet in employment.

Keywords: Attitude to trades unions, family membership of trades unions, education, gender differences

ÜNİVERSİTE ÖĞRENCİLERİNİN SENDİKALARA YÖNELİK TUTUMLARI

Year 2014, Issue: 49, 0 - , 20.10.2014

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, cinsiyet, ailenin sendikalara katılımı ve eğitim görülen alan ile sendikal tutumlar arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesidir. Çalışmanın örneklemini üniversite son sınıfta yer alan 368 üniversite öğrencisi oluşturmaktadır. Verilerin analizinde frekans dağılımı, tanımlayıcı istatistikler, güvenirlik analizi ve te testi kullanılmıştır. Öğrencilerin sendikal tutum ortalamaları 4,63±1,03 olarak tespit edilmiştir. Çalışmadan elde edilen bir diğer önemli sonuç ise, eğitim görülen alan ile sendikal tutumlar arasında anlamlı bir ilişkinin olmasıdır. Ayrıca kadın öğrenciler ile erkek öğrencilerin sendikal tutumları arasında anlamlı bir ilişki tespit edilememiştir. Elde edilen bu bulgular doğrultusunda, henüz istihdam içerisinde yer almayan öğrencilerin sendikal tutumlarının sendikalaşma için kritik bir öneme sahip olduğu ifade edilebilir.

Anahtar Kelimeler: Sendikal tutum, ailenin sendikal katılımı, eğitim, cinsiyet farklılıkları
