Abstract

Academic performance is a highly important topic for directing one‟s future. In examining academic performance it is important to measure the effectiveness of various factors on this issue. In this study, the effects of psychological factors such as personality traits and attachment style on academic performance will be examined. In addition, the effect of a demographic variable such as gender was tested in the model as a categorical variable. Research results showed the significant effect of personality traits such as extraversion and openness, together with secure attachment style, in predicting academic performance. In addition, the gender variable showed a significant effect in the evaluation of students‟ academic performance as high or low. The results of this study are interpreted and discussed within the available literature in the field. The results of this study offer insight into how psychological factors such as personality traits and attachment styles can affect academic performance.

Psikolojik ve Demografik Etkilerin Akademik Performans Üzerindeki Etkileri

Year 2017, Volume: 7 Issue: 2, 133 - 147, 30.12.2017

Abstract

Akademik performans, bireylerin geleceklerini yönlendirmeleri açısından son derece önemli bir konudur. Akademik performans üzerinde etkili olan çeşitli faktörlerin incelenmesi akademik performan-sın değerlendirilmesi açısından önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışmada, kişilik özellikleri ve bağlanma tarzları gibi psikolojik faktörlerin üniversite öğrencilerinin akademik başarıları üzerindeki etkisi incelenmektedir. Bununla birlikte, demografik değişkenlerden cinsiyetin etkisi de model içerisinde kategorik değişken olarak test edilmiştir. Araştırma bulguları, kişilik tiplerinden dışa dönüklük ve deneyime açıklığın ve bağlanma tarzlarından güvenli bağlanmanın akademik performansın tahmin edilmesinde anlamlı etkiye sahip olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Ayrıca, cinsiyet değişkenin de öğrencilerin akademik performansının düşük ve yüksek olarak değerlendirilmesinde anlamlı bir etkiye sahip olduğu saptanmıştır. Araştırma bulguları ilgili yazın desteği ile tartışılmış ve yorumlanmıştır. Araştırma sonuçlarının üniversite öğrencilerin akademik başarısının değerlendirilmesinde kişilik özellikleri ve bağlanma tarzları gibi önemli psikolojik değişkenlerin etkisini göstermesi açısından önemli olabileceği düşünülmektedir.
