Türk K Kuşağı Ergenlerinde Ergenlik Sorunları ile Bilgisayar (Bilgisayar, İnternet, Oyun) Bağımlılığı Arasındaki İlişkinin Kanonik Korelasyon Analizi ile İncelenmesi: Ordu İl Merkez (Altınordu) Örneği
Amaç: Bu çalışma, Türk K kuşağı ergenlerinde bilgisayar bağımlılığı (bilgisayar, internet, oyun bağımlılığı) ile ergen sorunları arasındaki
ilişkiyi korelasyon analizi ile incelemek amacıyla yapılmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu çalışma kesitsel bir çalışmadır. Bu araştırma, lise giriş sınavı başarı sıralamasına göre seçilen bir il merkezindeki
üç lisede gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmada veli ve öğrenci izni alınan toplam 665 öğrenci çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Veri toplamak için Ergen
Bilgisayar (bilgisayar/internet/oyun) Bağımlılığı Ölçeği ve Ergenlik Sorunları Tarama Listesi kullanılmıştır. Çalışmada ergenler için bilgisayar
bağımlılığı ölçeğinin alt ölçekleri (bilgisayar, internet, oyun) Set 1 olarak belirlenmiş ve ergenlik sorunları tarama listesi (fiziksel, sosyal, karşı
cinsle ilişki ve cinsel bilgiler, psikolojik, gelecek beklentileri) alt ölçekleri Set 2 olarak belirlenmiştir. Bu Set 1 ve Set 2 arasındaki beklenen
ilişkiler kanonik ağırlıklar ve yüklemeler ile etkin bir şekilde açıklanmıştır.
Bulgular: Çalışmada, 0,688 ile 0,150 arasında değişen üç kanonik değişken çifti vardı. Birinci ve ikinci çiftlerin anlamlı olduğu gözlendi
(p<0,001). Ergenlerin Bilgisayar Bağımlılığı Ölçeğinde bilgisayar oyunu bağımlılığı en önemli parametredir (1,064). U1 kanonik değişkeninin
yüksek değer elde etmesi için pozitif korelasyon nedeniyle oyun bağımlılığının arttırılması, negatif korelasyon nedeniyle CA’nın küçültülmesi
gerekmektedir. Dolayısıyla, oyun bağımlılığı alt ölçeği yüksek olduğunda, bilgisayar ve internet bağımlılığı alt ölçekleri ise düşük olduğunda
psikolojik ve sosyal problemler alt ölçeklerinin yüksek değerler alması beklenmektedir. Ergenlik sorunları tarama listesinde psikolojik gelişim
sorunları, en önemli parametre (0,702) idi. V1 kanonik değişkeninin değeri, psikolojik gelişim sorunları ve sosyal gelişim sorunları arttıkça
artmaktadır. Buna karşılık fiziksel gelişim problemlerindeki artış V1 kanonik değişkeninin değerini düşürmektedir.
Sonuç: Mevcut veriler, bilgisayar bağımlılığı ile K kuşağı ergenlerinin ergenlik sorunları arasında pozitif ve orta düzeyde ilişki olduğunu
ortaya koymuştur. Kanonik korelasyon analizi, ergenlik sorunlarının ergenin bilgisayar (bilgisayar/internet/oyun) bağımlılığını açıklamada
önemli bir varyansa sahip olduğunu, ergenin bilgisayar bağımlılığının ise ergenlik sorunlarını açıklamada önemli bir varyansa sahip olduğunu
göstermiştir.
Examining the Relationship between Adolescence Problems and Computer (Computer, Internet, Game) Addiction with Canonic Correlation Analysis in Turkish Generation K Adolescents: Ordu Province Center (Altinordu) Example
Aim: This study was conducted to examine the relationship between computer addiction (computer,
internet, game addiction) and adolescent problems in Turkish generation K adolescents with correlation
analysis.
Material and Methods: This study is a cross-sectional study. This research was carried out in three
high schools in the city center of a city selected according to their success ranking in the high school
entrance exam. In the study, a total of 665 students who received parental and student permission were
included. Adolescents’ Computer (computer/internet/game) Addiction Scale and Adolescence Problems
Scanning List were used to gathering data. In the study, subscales of computer addiction scale for
adolescence (computer, internet, game) were determined as Set 1, and subscales of adolescence
problems scanning list (physical, social, relationship with the opposite sex and sexual information,
psychological, future expectations) were determined as Set 2. Expected relationships between these
Set 1 and Set 2 explained in an efficient manner by canonical weights and loadings.
Results: Three canonical variate pairs were ranging from 0.688 to 0.150. It was observed that the
first and the second pairs were significant (p<0.001). In the Adolescents’ Computer Addiction Scale,
computer game addiction was the most significant parameter (1.064). In order to obtain high value for
U1 canonical variate, while game addiction should be increased because of positively correlated, CA
should be shrunk because of negatively correlated. Therefore, when the game addiction subscale is
high and the computer and internet addiction subscales are low, it is expected that the psychological
and social problems subscales will take high values. In the adolescence problems scanning list,
psychological development problems were the most significant parameters (0.702). The value for
V1 canonical variate increases with the increase of psychological development problems and social
development problems. In contrast, the increase in the physical development problems reduces the
value of the V1 canonical variable.
Conclusion: Present data revealed that there were positive and moderate correlations between
computer addiction and adolescence problems of generation K. Canonical correlation analysis showed that the adolescence problems had a significant variance in explaining the adolescent’s computer (computer/internet/game) addiction, while
the adolescent’s computer addiction had significant variance in explaining the adolescence problems.
