A Comparison of Secondary School Students' Value Perceptions in Turkiye and the UK
International Online Journal of Education and Teaching, v9 n3 p1203-1216 2022
The purpose of this research is to compare value perceptions of secondary school students studying in Türkiye and the UK. In this study, the cross-sectional method was adopted. 249 Turkish students studying in the UK, and 253 students studying in Türkiye participated in the research. The Positive Values Scale developed by Huang and Cornell (2016) was used as a data collection tool. Since the research data were not normally distributed, in the analysis, such techniques as arithmetic mean, standard deviation and Mann Whitney U tests have been used. According to the findings, a statistically significant difference was found in favor of the students studying in Türkiye. Also, a statistically significant difference was determined in favor of female students studying in the UK in the concern for others factor. However, there were no statistically significant differences between the value perceptions of students in the UK and Türkiye in the overall scale and in its factors as far as gender was concerned. New researches comparing value perceptions of different samples can be done.
