between the factors related to nuclear energy acceptance and the sensitivity of
young generations to nuclear energy are examined with structural equation
model. The data obtained by the questionnaire applied to 521 students studying
at the faculties of the Kütahya Dumlupınar University were analyzed. The
students were asked the questions related to the latent variables which are
perceived benefits of energy supply, perceived environmental benefits, risk
perception, trust and acceptance. While risk perception has a statistically
significant and negative effect on acceptance, the effects of other latent
variables in the model have found to be positive. </span> </i> </p> <p> <br /> </p>}, number={2}, publisher={Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi}
