In the process of analyzing and evaluating the data, SPSS 21.0 packet program has been used. The percentage distributions, frequency and arithmetic average data of scale points have been calculated. While the relevance of differences between average points is tested, t-test and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) has been made.
