A Statistical Analysis of Children’s Environmental Knowledge and Attitudes in Turkey

The aim of this study was three-fold: (1) to determine 6th, 8th and 10th grade students’ environmental knowledge and attitudes in Turkey; (2) to investigate the effect of the grade level and gender on students’ environmental knowledge and attitudes; (3) to explore how environmentally responsible behaviour is related to environmental knowledge, affects, behavioural intentions, and demographic variables. Data were obtained by the administration of the Turkish version of Children’s Environmental Attitudes and Knowledge Scale to 1,977 students from 22 randomly selected schools located in urban areas. The data were analysed using one-way analyses of variance, independent samples t-test, and multiple regression analysis. A statistically significant effect of grade level was found on environmental knowledge and attitudes. While the effect of gender on attitudes toward the environment was statistically significant in favour of females, the gender difference on environmental knowledge was not statistically significant. Multiple regression analysis revealed that environmentally responsible behaviour can be predicted by behavioural intentions, environmental affects, gender, and age. Environmental knowledge appeared to be influential on behaviours not directly, but mediated by behavioural intentions and environmental affects.

A survey on Turkish elementary school students’ environmental friendly behaviours and associated variables

This study investigated elementary school students’ environmental knowledge and attitudes, the effects of sociodemographic variables on environmental knowledge and attitudes, and how self‐reported environmentally friendly behaviour is related to environmental knowledge, behavioural intentions, environmental affects, and the students’ locus of control. Data were gathered by administration of the Children’s Environmental Attitudes and Knowledge Scale and Locus of Control scale to 1140 students from 18 randomly selected elementary schools located in urban areas of Ankara, the capital of Turkey. Descriptive results indicated low levels of knowledge, but favourable attitudes toward the environment. The three‐way ANOVA provided a significant main effect on students’ environmental knowledge of education level of fathers. The sex difference regarding students’ attitudes toward the environment was statistically significant in favour of girls. In addition, multiple regression analysis results showed that behavioural intentions, environmental affects, and locus of control, could be accounted as significant predictors of self‐reported environmentally friendly behaviour. On the other hand, the present study showed that elementary school students’ behaviours toward the environment were independent from their knowledge of environmental issues.

Dostoyevski, Emile Zola, Charles Dickens, Balzac, Goethe, who succeeded becoming some of the classical novelists in the world, have that quality in their novels since having an eccentric personality of the novel character makes easier to describe it and gains the type feature. The author, introducing to the reader spiritual worlds of the characters in novel, provides that the reader identify itself with the novel character. Peyami Safa, as a remarkable representative of Psychological Novel of Turkish Literature, reflects the inner worlds of the characters impressively so that some of the characters, creating the difference with either by nature, family structure, or environmental conditions, conflict with the real world and live on the coast of life. The author, who sometimes applied psychological and philosophical establishments when illustrating the inner world of the character and building the attitudes towards events they had lived, takes deserved place in Turkish Literature as a novelist portraying the human spirit influentially.OZET Ara?tyrma, okul oncesi kurumlara devam eden cocuklaryn davrany? problemlerinin cocu?un ya?, cinsiyet, do?um syrasy, karde? sayysy, ana-baba ya?y, mesle?i, e?itim durumu, ailenin gelir durumu ve ailede ba?ka yeti?kinlerin olmasy de?i?kenleriyle ili?kisini incelemek amacyyla planlanmy?tyr.

As the steel has high strength, FRP material used for strengthening should also have high strength. It is thought that High Modulus Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (HM-CRFP) produced in recent years shows a high performance in strengthening of steel beams. The aim of this study is to address the development length for HM-CFRP fiber material which is used in strengthening of steel members. Development length defines the length of HM-CFRP for which the capacity of the fiber material is not limited with the slip from the steel interface but the rupture of fibers.Turkiye’de 20. yuzyilda yasanan ekonomik ve sosyo-kulturel degisimin etkisiyle kir konut yapisinda gozle gorulur derecede bir donusumun oldugu saptanmaktadir.

At the base of the conceived model, there is the theoretical framework of the two worlds. This framework underlines the relation between world of objects and world of models and theories. The world of objects-events specifies objects, facts and events of daily life. The world of the models and theories corresponds to the concepts, models and theories constructed by scientists. The activities prepared according to this theoretical framework do not start with definition of concepts, laws and solving problems. They start with the discussion and presentation of facts and events selected in the daily life. In the second phase, students are led towards the world of models and theories by introducing concepts and the laws concerned. Third phase corresponds to traditional activities. It is a question of defining physical sizes, concepts and solving problems. Lately we await students to establish relations between the world of the objects-events and the world of the models-theories. We think that the whole of these activities would make it possible to the candidate teachers meaningfully learning in General Physics lessons, preparing them with the other courses of sciences in the elementary school education program.In the following study, 12 m2 test chamber was heated by solar and ground source heat pump under the physical conditions of Elazig.

Poverty is an ever-increasing important problem not only for underdeveloped countries, but also for developed countries. Global liberal system, through the multi-national companies in both inter-countries, as well as within countries leads to an in-depth polarity between rich and poor within countries. Neo-liberalism`s expansion of the zone of influence, and also social policy restrictions of nation states due to a loss of power, play a role in increasing poverty. In addition, the global capitalist system, set to unlimited economic growth, destroying traditional lifestyles of people living in underdeveloped countries, receives their subsistence economies and gives rise to poverty trap.Synyf yonetim modelleri, geleneksel, tepkisel, onlemsel, geli?imsel ve butunsel olmak uzere be? ba?lykta ele alynabilir.
