Vertical collectivism, family-conscıousness and urbanization in Turkey

Öz:

Şehir yaşamı insanlara, ailelerine ve yakın arkadaşlarına güvenme ihtiyacını azaltan kolaylıklar sunmaktadır. Buaraştırmada büyük şehirde yaşayanların kırsalda yaşayanlara göre daha bireyselci ve daha az toplulukçuolacağını öne süren şehirleşme hipotezi sınanmıştır. Bireyselcilik, toplulukçuluk ve ailecilik Türkiyenin birkaçşehrinde ve bir ABD şehrindeki (Boston) üniversite öğrencileri arasında ölçülmüştür. Şehirleşmeninbireycilikten çok grup içi otorite figürlerinin bireysel amaçların önüne geçmesi olarak tanımlanan dikeytoplulukçuluğun ve aileciliğin (aile içi toplumsalcılıkla) düşük düzeyleri ilişkili olarak değiştiği bulgulanmıştır.Ailecilik ve dikey toplulukçuluk kırsal alanlara nazaran, geniş kentsel alanlarda daha az kabul görmektedir. Builişkiler, şehir yaşamının hangi özelliklerinin (gelir düzeyi, eğitim düzeyi, dini inanç, aileyle yaşamanın pektercih edilmemesi) toplulukçu değerleri etkilemesine ilişkin daha spesifik sorular sormak için bir temeloluşturmaktadır.

Öz:

Urban living offers conveniences which reduce the need to rely on family and close friends. The current paper tested the urbanization hypothesis, which is that residents of urban areas will be more individualistic and lesscollectivistic than rural residents. Individualism, collectivism and family-consciousness were assessed in collegestudents in several Turkish cities and one US city (Boston). Urbanization co-varied most strongly not withindividualism, but with low values of vertical collectivism, which is the tendency to subordinate personal goalsto those of in-group authority figures, and with family-consciousness (communalism within the family group). family-consciousness and vertical collectivism were less frequently endorsed in larger urban areas compared torural areas. These associations provide a foundation for asking more specific questions about what aspects ofurban living (e.g., income, education, religious belief, less frequent co-residence with family) influencecollectivist values.
