Özet

Bu araştırma İngiltere’deki Türk öğrencilerin kültürleşme tercihlerinin cinsiyet, yaş, doğum yeri, okulda ve İngiltere’de bulunma yılı değişkenlerine göre anlamlı farklılık gösterip göstermediğini ve okula aidiyet duygusunu yordayıp yordamadığını belirlemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmada ilişkisel desen kullanılmış olup; çalışma grubunu Türklerin yoğun olarak yaşadığı Londra’dan küme örnekleme tekniğiyle seçilen 7 İngiliz okulundaki Key Stage 3, Key Stage 4 ve 16 yaş sonrası aşamasındaki 275 Türk öğrencisi oluşturmaktadır. Öğrenciler kültürleşme tercihlerini en yüksek ortalamayla bütünleşme tercihinde değerlendirirlerken, bu tercihi sırasıyla ayırma, aykırılaşma ve erime takip etmektedir. Araştırmada öğrencilerin bütünleşme tercihleri cinsiyet, okulda bulunma yılı ve doğum yeri değişkenlerine göre; ayırma tercihleri yaş, doğum yeri, okulda ve İngiltere’de bulunma yılı değişkenlerine göre; erime tercihleri ise doğum yeri değişkenine göre anlamlı farklılıklar göstermektedir. Ayrıca öğrencilerin bütünleşme tercihleri okula aidiyet duygularını olumlu yönde; reddedilmişlik duygularını ise olumsuz yönde yordamaktadır.
