Bu makale, 1988-2020 dönemi Hanehalkı İşgücü Anketi verilerini kullanarak Türkiye’de genç nüfusta (15-29 yaş grubu) eğitim eşitsizliğindeki değişimi araştırmaktadır. Ortalama eğitim süresi eğitim düzeyindeki değişimler, standart sapma ve eğitim Gini katsayısı ise grup içi eğitim eşitsizliğini incelemek için hesaplanmaktadır. Bu istatistikler, genç kadınlar ve genç erkekler için ayrı ayrı hesaplanarak zaman içerisinde eğitim düzeyi ve eşitsizliğinde gözlenen toplumsal cinsiyet eşitsizliğinin nasıl değiştiği değerlendirilmektedir. Çalışmanın bulguları, Türkiye’de 1988-2020 arasında hem genç erkekler hem de genç kadınlar için ortalama eğitim süresinin arttığını ve Gini katsayısı ile hesaplanan eğitim eşitsizliğinin ise azaldığını göstermektedir. Bu bulgular, zorunlu eğitimin artmasının hem ortalama eğitim süresi hem de eğitim eşitsizliği bakımından olumlu etkilerini yansıtıyor görünmektedir. Her ne kadar eğitimde toplumsal cinsiyet eşitsizliği zamanla azalsa da ortalama eğitim süresi genç erkekler için, eğitim Gini katsayısı ise genç kadınlar için görece daha yüksektir.

Inequality in Education Among Turkish Young Individuals, 1988-2020

This paper studies the changes in education inequality in the youth population (15-29 age group) in Turkey using the Household Labour Force Survey data for the 1988-2020 period. The average years of schooling is calculated to investigate the changes in the level of educational attainment, and standard deviation in years of schooling and education Gini coefficient are calculated to examine how within-group education inequality changes over time. These statistics are calculated for young men and young women separately to also find out how gender inequality in educational attainment and education inequality changes over time. The findings of this study show that the average years of schooling increases for both young men and young women in Turkey while education inequality measured by the Gini coefficient decreases for both groups between 1988 and 2020. This seems to reflect the positive implications of the expansion in compulsory education for both AYS and education inequality. Average years of schooling is higher for young men while education Gini is higher among young women despite the closing of the gender gap in both measures over time.
