Abstract

Members of Y generation composed of individuals born
between 1980-2000, is a generation that has to work for living. In their lives,
technology is one of the most important things. This generation, which does not
like to work, loves entertainment and winning, acts aggressive to authority,
consumes fast and has dissatisfied manner. Their most important characteristics
are freedom, technology and loneliness. One other characteristics of this
generation is having much self-confidence. The purpose of this study is to
model the financial attitudes and behaviors of Y generation via structural
equation modeling. With this purpose a Likert scale type questionnaire, ranging
from 1 ‘strongly disagree’ to 5 ‘strongly agree’ is applied to 372 individuals
via Computer Assisted Personal Interviewing (CAPI) on Pollyfy application. The
data set is analyzed by SPSS and LISREL software. Results of the study indicate
that, while the individuals of Y generation consider having an
emergency funds a financial attitude, they
mentioned that the f
inancial issues do not confuse or depress them as a financial behavior.

Abstract

Y jenerasyonunun üyeleri, 1980-2000 yılları arasında
doğmuş, yaşamak için çalışması gereken bireylerden oluşmaktadır. Onların
yaşamında teknoloji, birçok şeyden önemli bir yere sahiptir. Bu nesil,
çalışmayı sevmeyen, eğlenmeyi ve kazanmayı seven, yetkililere karşı agresif bir
tavır sergileyen, hızlı tüketen ve memnuniyetsiz bir tutum içindedirler. En
önemli karakteristik özellikleri teknoloji ve özgürlüklerine düşkün ve tek
başına olmalarıdır. Y neslinin diğer bir özelliği ise, özgüvenlerinin oldukça
yüksek olmasıdır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Y jenerasyonunun finansal tutum ve
davranışlarını yapısal eşitlik modellemesi aracılığı ile modellemektir. Bu
amaçla 1 "kesinlikle katılmıyorum" ve 5 " kesinlikle
katılıyorum" şeklinde Likert tipi ölçeğe sahip bir anket Pollyfy
uygulaması üzerinden Bilgisayar destekli kişisel görüşme formu yardımı ile 372
kişiye uygulanmıştır. Veri setinin analizi SPSS ve LISREL paket programları ile
analiz edilmiştir. Çalışma sonuçları göstermektedir ki, Y jenerasyonu bireyleri
finansal tutum için acil bir durum için birikim yapmaya önem verirken, finansal
davranış bakımından, finansal konuların onları telaşlandırmadığı ve canlarını
sıkmadığını ifade etmişlerdir.
