Abstract

This study aimed to examine the mediating role of awareness about Postgraduate study (PG) in the relationship between undergraduate academic achievement, and the intentions to pursue a PG study. In addition, it was tested whether academic achievement and awareness about PG study predict intentions to PG study. Within the scope of this aim, first of all, the PG study intention and awareness about PG study instrument have been developed for validity and reliability studies. The participants consisted of 415 undergraduate students studying in different grades and programs in a faculty of education of a state university in Turkey. In the analysis of the data, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, correlation analysis, and structural equation modeling (SEM) were used. The results of the analysis showed that academic achievement directly predicted the awareness about PG study and the PG study intention. The results of SEM analysis indicated that awareness about PG study played a mediating role in the relationship between academic achievement and PG study intention. This study yielded two findings: first, the academic achievement of undergraduate students and their level of awareness about PG study options play an important role in predicting intentions to pursue a PG study. Second, the awareness of PG study can be a key point in predicting the intentions of undergraduate students to pursue postgraduate research studies. The results suggest that regular awareness-raising workshops and promotions based on PG study options and programs for current undergraduate students for awareness raising in PG study may serve to improve students' current conditions early and positively shape their thoughts and intentions about their future career goals.

Abstract

Bu araştırmada, lisans akademik başarı ortalaması ile lisansüstü eğitim niyeti arasındaki ilişkide lisansüstü eğitime ilişkin farkındalığın aracılık rolü incelenmiştir. Ayrıca araştırmada akademik başarı ve lisansüstü eğitime ilişkin farkındalığın lisans sonrası lisansüstü eğitim niyetini yordayıp yordamadığı test edilmiştir. Bu amaç kapsamında araştırmada öncelikle geçerlik ve güvenirlik çalışmaları yapılarak “Lisansüstü Eğitim Farkındalığı” ve “Lisansüstü Eğitim Niyeti” ölçme araçları geliştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın katılımcılarını bir devlet üniversitesinin eğitim fakültesinde farklı sınıf ve programlarda öğrenim gören 415 öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Elde edilen verilerin çözümlenmesinde açımlayıcı faktör analizi, doğrulayıcı faktör analizi, korelasyon analizi ve yapısal eşitlik modellemesi (YEM) kullanılmıştır. YEM Analizi sonuçları, akademik başarının lisansüstü eğitim farkındalığını ve lisansüstü eğitim niyetini doğrudan yordadığını göstermiştir. Bulgular incelendiğinde akademik başarı ile lisansüstü eğitim niyeti arasındaki ilişkide lisansüstü eğitim farkındalığının aracılık rolü oynadığı görülmüştür. Araştırmada elde edilen bulgular iki bağlamda önemlidir. Birincisi, üniversite öğrencilerinin akademik başarısı ve lisansüstü eğitimle ilgili farkındalık düzeyleri lisansüstü eğitim niyetlerini yordamada önemli bir role sahiptir. İkincisi, lisansüstü eğitim farkındalığının üniversite öğrencilerinin lisans sonrası lisansüstü eğitime başlama niyetlerini öngörmede kilit nokta olabileceği görülmüştür. Bu anlamda lisansüstü eğitime ilişkin farkındalık gelişimi için üniversitelerin lisans öğrencilerine yönelik lisansüstü programların tanıtıldığı çalıştaylar yapması ve lisans sonrası eğitim olanakları hakkında danışmanlık hizmeti vermesi öğrencilerin var olan koşullarını erkenden iyileştirmelerine ve gelecekteki kariyer hedeflerine ilişkin düşünce yapılarını olumlu yönde şekillendirmelerine katkı sağlayabilir.
