Socioeconomic Status (SES) Scores of Turkish Statistics Students

Abstract

Based on the findings of the study which we submitted to TUBITAK in 2007, we tried to estimate SES (socioeconomic status) scores of statistics students’ families using some answers on the questionnaire forms of 1794 students in our sample. By analysing SES scores, some sound “distinctions” between the profiles of students from different regions of Turkey (and between those of private university students and public university students as well) may be possible. This point should be emphasized especially in discussing some issues on future of university education. Within last years, opening new universities is on the current agenda of Turkey. Some people emphasize that this expansionary process will increase the lack of quality present in university education. All these critisicms have sound and logical bases. On the other hand, this process itself brings more students more opportunities in university education. The significant differences between SES scores of statistics students lead us to think that opening new universities can create some opportunities for a kind of social mobility.
