Abstract:

This study was conducted with the aim of determining the relationship between the state of life of violence, the attitudes of violence and self-respect of university students. The study was conducted in the 2020-2021 educational period through an survey. The survey was sent to students studying in the fields of health, social and engineering of the universities through the Google forms with a total of 687 students participated in the study. The data was collected using the “Violent Attitude Scale” and the “Rosenberg Self-Happiness Scale”. The average age of students is X̄:20.99±2.83, most (74.1%) are female. 56.6 per cent of people have experienced violence. The highest number of emotional violence experienced was 47.3 percent, compared to severe in school (38.5 percent), at home (35.6 percent), in neighborhood (19.4 percent). Family members of violence (33 per cent). 8), friends (32.2%), teachers (20.0%) and flirt (8.2%) have been caused. Students have a high self-respect (X̄:1.91±1,6), a low violent attitude (X̄:39,88±13,13). There is a significant difference between the relationship of students, the income status, the state of violence and the state of education and the self-respect (p<0,05), the self-respect of the students who suffer violence is medium (X̄:2.19±1.68), the students who suffer violence is high (X̄:1.61±1,51) and the scale of attitude of the male students towards violence is X̄:45.10±15.21 and the average score of the girls students (X̄:38.05±11,81) is high (p<0,05)  The scale of attitude of social scientists towards violence (X̄:37.22±10.82) was found to be lower than the average score of other disciplines. There has been a low degree meaningful relationship between students’ self-respect and the average score of violent attitude in a positive direction (r=,101; p<0,05). Violence can be experienced everywhere, often seen from the closest. As the student’s violent attitude increases, the self-esteem decreases. It may be recommended that youth-related strengthening activities are planned and that interpersonal communication, human rights and behavioral sciences are added to the science/engineering department courses.
