AİDS dünyada ilk defa 1981 yılında Amerika Birleşik devletlerinde tespit edilen ve dünya gündemine düşen önemli hastalıklardan biridir. Türkiye’de AIDS ile 1985’te ilk defa karşılaşıldı. Birleşmiş Milletler AIDS ortak çalışma programı UNICEF’in tahminlerine göre HIV/AIDS salgını günümüzde yaklaşık 42 milyon insanı etkilemektedir (Green, 2007; UNIADS/WHO, 2012). İlk ortaya çıktığından bu güne 20 milyon insanın ölümüne neden olmuştur. Böylesine önemli bir hastalığa karşı toplumun her kesiminden insanın tutumu önemli olmakla birlikte özellikle gelecek nesilleri yetiştirecek olan öğretmen adaylarının tutumu çok daha önemlidir. Bu çalışmada AİDS’e yönelik duygusal semantik farklılık ölçeğinin hazırlanması da çalışmaya ayrıca önem katmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı öğretmen adaylarının AİDS’e yükledikleri duygusal semantik değerler açısından AİDS’le ilgili olumlu ve olumsuz tutumlarını incelemektir. Araştırma tarama modelinde yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın çalışma grubu 288 öğretmen adayından oluşmuştur. Araştırmanın verileri AİDS’le ilgili semantik farklılık ölçeği ile elde edilmiştir. Ölçek iki uçlu 26 sıfat çiftinden oluşmaktadır. Ölçeğin Cronbach Alpha güvenirlik katsayısı .93 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde SPSS-15 programı yardımıyla betimsel istatistik yöntemleri kullanılmıştır. Diğer taraftan modelin oluşturulmasında NVivo-9.3 programından yararlanılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonunda öğretmen adaylarının semantik farklılığa göre AİDS’e yükledikleri değerlerin negatif yönde ( = 2.35) olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu sonuç Likert tipi ölçme araçlarıyla belirlenen sonuçlarla benzerlik göstermektedir. Bu kapsamda AİDS kavramını en fazla bulaşıcı, korkunç, ölüm, pis ve iğrenç olarak algılamaktadırlar. Diğer sıfat çiftlerine de negatif yönde değerler yükledikleri belirlenmiştir. Öğretmen adaylarının AİDS’e yükledikleri duygusal semantik değerlerin cinsiyetlerine ve bölümlerine göre anlamlı farklılık göstermediği belirlenmiştir. Araştırma sonunda konuyla ilgili önerilere yer verilmiştir.
AIDS is one of the world's most important diseases that was first identified in the United States in 1981. AIDS was first encountered in 1985. According to UNICEF’s UN AIDS Joint Work Program, HIV/AIDS epidemic affects approximately 42 million people today (Green, 2007; UNIADS/WHO, 2012). Since its first appearance, it has caused the deaths of 20 million people today. The attitude of people from every part of society against such a major illness is important, but the attitude of teachers candidates who will educate the future generations is much more important. In this study, the preparation of the scale of emotional semantic differences towards AIDS also adds importance to the study. The aim of this study is to study the teaching candidates’ positive and negative attitudes towards AIDS in terms of the emotional semantic values they charge to AIDS. The research was conducted in the screening model. The research group consisted of 288 teachers. The data of the study was obtained by the scale of semantic differences related to AIDS. The scale consists of two ends of 26 numbers. The Cronbach Alpha reliability ratio of the scale is calculated as .93. In the analysis of data, visual statistical methods were used with the help of the SPSS-15 program. In addition, it has been developed with the NVivo-9.3 program. At the end of the study, the teaching candidates found that the values they charged to the AIDs were in a negative direction ( = 2.35) according to semantic differences. This result is similar to the results determined by the Likert type measurement tools. In this context, they perceive the concept of AIDS as most infectious, horrible, death, dirty and disgusting. The other pair has a negative direction of value. It has been determined that the teaching candidates do not show significant differences according to gender and sections of the emotional semantic values they charge on AIDS. At the end of the study, there were recommendations on the subject.
AIDS was first diagnosed in the year of 1981 in the USA, but it became a current issue all over the world. In Turkey, it was 1985 when the first case was seen. According to the predictions of UNICEF in their common study with United Nations, HIV/AIDS epidemic has been affecting approximately 42 million people today (Green, 2007; WORLD Health Organization, 2005). Since its birth to today, it has caused 20 million people to die. The perception of all society to such an epidemic like AIDS is clearly important; however, the perceptions of student teachers who will raise our future generations are more important. Furthermore, an emotional semantic difference scale was developed in the study, and it is expected to contribute to the results of this study significantly. The purpose of the study is to examine the positive and negative attitudes of teacher candidates about the AIDS according to emotional values in semantic differentiation scale. The survey model that applied at quantitative studies is used in the research. This study was conducted with the participation of 288 teacher candidates. A unipolar questionnaire consisted of 26 two opposite attributes questions has been created to determine the views of teacher candidates regarding AIDS. For the general of the semantic differential attitudes scale the Cronbach Alpha Reliability Coefficients have been found as 0.93. Descriptive statistical methods were used for analyzing the data with the SPSS-15 and the NVivo-9.3 were used for preparing the Model. At the end of the research, it was determined that teacher candidates' semantic attitudes towards AIDS were at a negative level in terms of mean scores of all adjectives considered. However based on each and every adjective, they mostly perceive AIDS as the contagious, horrible, disgusting, filthy, and death. As a result of the evaluation in terms of gender and social and science sections, it was found out that average of teacher candidates' semantic attitudes towards AIDS did not show a statistically significant difference. Finally, further studies can also be conducted to determine the needs necessary to improve teacher candidates’ positive attitudes of AIDS and evaluate the findings considering further teacher education.
