Abstract

The ever-increasing demands for a better and deeperunderstanding of the nature of learning has urged researchers toexamine the factors affecting the learning process. The purpose ofthis study was to determine whether a model could be formed onthe ground of the structural relationship pattern among motivation,procrastination and perfectionism. The participants consisted of 210students studying at a state university in İstanbul. As datacollection tools, Academic Motivation Scale, FrostMultidimensional Perfectionism Scale and Aitken AcademicProcrastination Inventory were administered to the study group.Data obtained were analysed using SPSS 21.0 and AMOS 21.0software program through Structural Equation Modelling. Resultsindicated that maladaptive perfectionism, as was the case withprocrastination, was affected by intrinsic and extrinsic motivationas well as amotivation. On the other hand, adaptive perfectionismwas affected by intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. In the light of thetheoretical background, the suggested model was tested and afternecessary path analysis, it was revised and the structuralrelationship pattern among motivation, procrastination andperfectionism was suggested as a model.

Özet

Öğrenmenin doğasını daha etkin bir şekilde anlama için gösterilen çabalar, araştırmacıları öğrenme sürecini etkileyen faktörleri detaylı olarak incelemeye itmiştir. Bu anlamda gerçekleştirilen çalışmanın amacı, motivasyon, erteleme ve mükemmeliyetçilik kavramları arasındaki yapısal ilişki örüntüsü zemininde bir model oluşturulup oluşturulmayacağını belirlemektir. Katılımcılar, İstanbul’da bir devlet üniversitesine devam eden 210 öğrenciden oluşmuştur. Veri toplama aracı olarak, Akademik Motivasyon Ölçeği, Frost Çok Boyutlu Mükemmeliyetçilik Ölçeği ve Aitken Akademik Erteleme Ölçeği uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler SPSS 21.0 ve AMOS 21.0 yazılım programı kullanılarak Yapısal Eşitlik Modeli ile analiz edilmiştir. Sonuçlar uyumsuz mükemmeliyetçiliğin, akademik ertelemede olduğu gibi, içsel ve dışsal motivasyonun yanı sıra motivasyonsuzluktan etkilendiğini göstermiştir. Öte yandan, uyumlu mükemmeliyetçiliğin ise içsel ve dışsal motivasyondan etkilendiği belirlenmiştir. Alan yazından elde edilen bilgiler ışığında önerilen model test edilmiş ve gerekli yol analizi işlemleri yapılarak gözden geçirildikten sonra, motivasyon, erteleme ve mükemmeliyetçilik arasındaki yapısal ilişki örüntüsü bir model olarak önerilmiştir.
