Ortaokul Öğrencilerinin Özel Gereksinimli Bireylere Yönelik Tutumları

Öz

Engelli bireylere gösterilen olumsuz tutumların değiştirilmesi ve sosyal kabulün sağlanması için engeli olmayan bireylerin engelli olan bireylere yönelik tutumları üzerinde hangi faktörlerin etkili olduğunun bilinmesi gerekmektedir. Araştırmada ortaokul öğrencilerinin özel gereksinimli bireylere karşı tutumlarının çeşitli değişkenler açısından belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu kapsamda araştırmada ortaokul öğrencilerinin özel gereksinimli bireylere yönelik tutumları cinsiyet, yaş, okul türü ve sınıf düzeyi değişkenlerine göre karşılaştırılarak incelenmiştir. Ortaokul öğrencilerinin okul türlerine göre özel gereksinimli bireylere yönelik tutumları küme örnekleme yöntemi ile belirlenmiştir. Böylelikle 2020-2021 öğretim yılında Konya İl Merkez ilçelerinde öğrenim gören toplam 2101 ortaokul öğrencisi çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Veri toplama aracı olarak “Özel Gereksinimli Bireylere Karşı Tutum Ölçeği” kullanılan çalışmada parametrik istatistik teknikleriyle veriler analiz edilmiştir. Araştırma bulgularına göre ortaokul öğrencilerinin özel gereksinimli bireylere yönelik tutumlarının öğrenim gördükleri okulun yerleşim yeri, cinsiyet, yaş, okul türü ve yaş değişkenlerine göre farklılaştığı görülmüştür.

Secondary School Students' Attitudes towards Individuals with Special Needs

Abstract

It is necessary to know which factors affect the attitudes of persons without disabilities towards persons with disabilities in order to change the negative attitudes towards persons with disabilities and to ensure social acceptance. In the study, it was aimed to determine the attitudes of middle school students towards individuals with special needs in terms of various variables. In this context, the attitudes of middle school students towards individuals with special needs were compared according to the variables of gender, age, school type and grade level. Secondary school students' attitudes towards individuals with special needs according to their school types were determined by cluster sampling method. Thus, a total of 2101 secondary school students studying in Konya City Center districts in the 2020-2021 academic year were included in the study. In the study where "Attitude Scale towards Individuals with Special Needs" was used as data collection tool, the data were analyzed with parametric statistical techniques. According to the findings of the research, it has been observed that the attitudes of middle school students towards individuals with special needs differ according to the location of the school where they study, gender, age, school type and age variables.
