Fen Lisesi Öğrencilerinin Mutlulukla İlgili Düşüncelerinin İncelenmesi

Abstract

Bu araştırmada fen lisesi öğrencilerinin mutluluk ile ilgili görüşlerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmanın çalışma grubu 8’i kız ve 7’si erkek olmak üzere toplam 15 öğrenciden oluşmaktadır. Araştırma nitel modellerden olgu-bilim deseninde tasarlanmıştır. Çalışmanın verileri, araştırmacı tarafından geliştirilmiş olan yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu ile toplanmıştır. Araştırmada elde edilen nitel veriler içerik analizi yöntemi ile analiz edilmiştir. Yapılan içerik analizi sonucunda katılımcıların mutluluk kavramını zevk ve haz yaşantıları, anlam ve üretkenlik olmak üzere üç temada tanımladıkları görülmektedir. Ayrıca katılımcıların kendilerini mutlu eden yaşantıların arkadaşlık ilişkileri, sevmek ve sevilmek, güçlü ilişkiler, özgürlük, tatil ve gezi, başarılı olmak gibi yaşantılar olduğu görülmüştür. Ayrıca, katılımcılar; arkadaşlar, rehber öğretmenler, anne-babalar, öğretmenler, model aldıkları kişiler ve başarılı kişilerin yanında kendilerini mutlu hissettiklerini ifade ettikleri görülmüştür. Öte yandan, mutlu olmak için katılımcıların yeni şeyler denemeyi, alışveriş yapmayı, sevmek/sevilmek ve hayata pozitif bakmayı tercih ettikleri görülmektedir. Son olarak katılımcıların, mutluluğu farklı kavramlara, nedenleri ile birlikte benzettikleri görülmüştür. Elde edilen sonuçlar alanyazın ışığında tartışılmıştır.
