Abstract

Peer relations are one of the important social relations in adolescence. The aim of this study is to examine the adolescent individual's peer relations with the variables of gender, attachment to mother and father and social anxiety. The study group of this research consists of 220 girls (61.5%) and 138 boys (38.5%) and 358 high school students in total. The data of the study were collected by the Peer Relations Scale, the Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment (IPPA), the Social Anxiety Scale for the Adolescents and the Demographic Information Form. In this descriptive study, hierarchical regression analysis, which is one of the multiple regression methods, was used to determine the predictors of peer relations. At the same time, a t-test was conducted on independent samples to determine whether high school students' peer relations differed by gender. According to the results of hierarchical regression analysis; gender and attachment to father meaningfully predict peer relations; attachment to mother and social anxiety do not meaningfully predict peer relations. Besides, peer relations differ significantly by gender. These findings of the research were discussed in the light of the literature and suggestions are presented.

Özet

Akran ilişkileri ergenlik döneminin önemli sosyal bağlarından biridir. Bu çalışmanın amacı ergenlik dönemindeki bireyin akran ilişkilerini cinsiyet, anneye ve babaya bağlanma ve sosyal kaygı değişkenleri ile birlikte incelemektir. Bu araştırmanın çalışma grubunu 220’si (% 61,5) kadın ve 138’si (% 38,5) erkek olmak üzere toplam 358 lise öğrencisi oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmanın verileri, Akran İlişkileri Ölçeği, Ebeveyne Bağlanma Envanteri Kısa Formu, Ergenler için Sosyal Kaygı Ölçeği ve Demografik Bilgi Formu ile toplanmıştır. Betimsel nitelikte olan bu çalışmada, akran ilişkilerinin yordayıcılarını belirlemek amacıyla çoklu regresyon yöntemlerinden aşamalı çoklu regresyon analizi kullanılmıştır. Aynı zamanda, ergenlerde akran ilişkilerinin cinsiyete göre fark gösterip göstermediğini belirlemek için bağımsız örneklemler için t testi yapılmıştır. Aşamalı çoklu regresyon analizi sonuçlarına göre; cinsiyet ve babaya bağlanma akran ilişkilerini anlamlı olarak yordarken; anneye bağlanma ve sosyal kaygı arkadaş ilişkilerini anlamlı olarak yordamamaktadır. Bununla birlikte, akran ilişkileri cinsiyete göre anlamlı fark göstermektedir. Araştırmanın bu bulguları ilgili alan yazın ışığında tartışılmış ve öneriler sunulmuştur.
