Abstract

Bu çalışmada genellemelere varabilmek için geçmişte yapılmış araştırmaların istatiksel olarak birleştirilmesinin bir örneği sergilenmektedir. Bu tür birleştirmelere meta analiz adı verilmektedir. Bu çalışmada geçmişte okullar üzerinde yapılmış örgütsel yapının boyutları arasındaki ilişkileri araştıran çalışmalar birleştirilmeye ve bir fonomen hakında bir yargıya varılmaya çalışılmaktadır. Bu tür araştırmalar aynı fenomen üzerinde yapılmış araştırmaların sonuçlarını inceleyerek, söz konusu fenomenin ne derecede farklı mekanlarda, farklı zamanlarda, farklı gruplarda benzer bir şekilde ortaya çıktığı hakkında genellemelere varmamıza yardımcı olur. Ayrıca aynı fenomeni çalışmayı planlayan araştırmacıya ne tür sonuçlar beklemesi gerektiği hakkında bilgi sunar.(Keywords: Meta- anaysis, organizational structure, educational administration)
This is a study to illustrate how to integrate previous research findings to make an effective preparation for further research. In social sciences, some constructs are studied over and over again. New researchers who are interested in previously studied construct need a sense of what will happen when they study the same construct in a new sample. In this study, researches on bureaucratization are used an example. There are more than 70 empirical studies examining bureaucratic characteristics of schools. Those who plan for studying bureaucratization in schools need to know what kind of results they are likely to arrive at.
