Küreselleşme Yaşam Tatminini Nasıl Açıklar?

Abstract

Çok boyutlu bir kavram olarak küreselleşme, ulusları olumlu veya olumsuz olarak etkileyebilir. Yaşam tatmini ve küreselleşme arasındaki ilişki birçok çalışma tarafından araştırılmış olmasına rağmen, küreselleşmenin yaşamın farklı boyutlarındaki tatmini üzerindeki etkisi yeterince araştırılmamıştır. Bu çalışma bireylerin küreselleşme değerlendirmelerinin yaşamın farklı alanlarındaki tatminleri üzerinde etkilerini analiz eder. Veri seti 2014 yılı için farklı ülkelerden bireyler için yürütülen bir anketten elde edilmektedir. Anket bireylere küreselleşme ve yaşam tatmini hakkında fikirlerini sormaktadır. Küreselleşmenin değerlendirilmesi değişkenlerinin ve sosyo-demografik faktörlerin etkileri her bir tatmin değişkeni için kısmi oransal odds modeli vasıtasıyla hesaplanmaktadır. Sonuçlar küreselleşmenin pozitif taraflarını içselleştiren bireylerin büyük bir olasılıkla yaşamlarının farklı alanlarında oldukça tatmin olduklarını göstermektedir. Dolayısıyla insanların küreselleşmeyi nasıl algıladıkları yaşamın farklı boyutlarındaki tatminlerini açıklamaya yardımcı olmaktadır. Sonuçlar yaşam tatminine ilişkin birtakım potensiyel demografik çıkarımlar da ortaya koymuştur ve bunların çoğu yazındakilerle tutarlılık göstermektedir.

How Does Globalization Explain Life Satisfaction?

Year 2020, Volume: 7 Issue: 2, 551 - 564, 01.07.2020

Abstract

As being a multidimensional concept, globalization may influence nations positively or negatively. Although the relationship between life satisfaction and globalization has been investigated by several studies, the impact of globalization on satisfaction in different domains of life are under-researched. This study analyzes the impacts of individuals’ globalization assessment on their satisfaction in different domains of life. Data set is obtained from a survey conducted for individuals from different countries for the year 2014. The survey asks individuals about their opinions on globalization and life satisfaction. The effects of the assessment of globalization variables and socio-demographic factors are estimated via the partial proportional odds model for each satisfaction variable. Results show that individuals who internalize the positive sides of globalization are more likely to be highly satisfied in different areas in their life. Consequently, how people perceive globalization helps to explain their satisfaction in different domains of life. Results also reveal some potential demographic outcomes for satisfaction in different domains of life and most of those results are consistent with the literature.
