Abstract

This study aims to reveal the financial well-being of academic stuff. In this regard, in light of existing arguments and findings in the literature, hypotheses are established by taking into consideration such variables as the personnel’s title, age, gender, marital status and post of duty. In order to test the validity of the hypotheses, a questionnaire is carried out on academic stuff at Dumlupinar University. Covering all units of the University, the questionnaire produced a sample that consists of 246 people. The data set is analyzed with SPSS program by using such techniques as arithmetic mean, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), Tukey test and t-test. The results suggest that the academic stuff is limitedly satisfied with their current financial well-being

Özet

Çalışmanın amacı, akademik personelin finansal refah halini ölçmektir. Buna yönelik olarak literatürdeki tartışma ve bulguları esas almanın yanı sıra akademik personelin unvanı, yaşı, cinsiyeti, medeni durumu ve görev yeri değişkenleri de göz önünde bulundurarak hipotezler oluşturulmuştur. Araştırmanın hipotezlerini test etmek amacıyla Dumlupınar Üniversitesi’nin tüm birimlerinde görev yapan akademik personele yönelik anket uygulanmış ve 246 akademik personelden oluşan bir örneklem büyüklüğüne ulaşılmıştır. Elde edilen veriler SPSS programı kullanılarak, aritmetik ortalama, tekyönlü varyans analizi (ANOVA), Tukey testi ve t testi kullanılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Analizlerin sonucunda, çalışmaya katılan akademik personelin finansal refah durumlarından sınırlı düzeyde memnuniyet duydukları bulgusuna ulaşılmıştır

Çalışmanın sonuçlarına bakıldığında; örneğin, taş- rada görev yapan akademik personel ile merkez- de görev yapan akademik personelin finansal re- fah seviyeleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılığa rastlanılmamıştır. Diğer taraftan, cin- siyet değişkeni açısından bakıldığında da, akade- mik personelin finansal refah seviyesinde istatis- tiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık olmadığı bulgu- suna erişilmiştir.
