Özet:

The purpose of this research is to reveal what religious handling activities the refugee students who have been forced to migrate for destructive reasons such as war and rights violations and who continue their lives in Turkey have applied to overcome this traumatic life and the relationship of this preference with cultural harmony. The fact that religion has important functions in addressing all kinds of difficulties, including compulsory immigration, makes it a matter of interest and curiosity for what kind of religious process they are experiencing in order to make their lives suitable. This curious research is based on the assumption that refugees are fighting difficulties using a more positive religious approach and are trying to catch cultural harmony with this fight. The sample of the study was selected by random sampling from Syrian, Iraqi and Afghan refugee students who have continued their studies in the various departments of the University of Karabuk and in the different schools at the high school level of the National Education Directorate of Karabuk in the 2017-2018 academic year.  The sample group, the average age of 18 years, has been applied the scales "Cultural Compatibility" and "Religious Methods of Confrontation". According to the research findings used by the scale technique according to the relational scanning method, the sample group’s levels of cultural harmony and positive religious treatment are above the average, and the negative religious treatment levels are below the average. The relationship with some independent and demographic variables has also been found to have a meaningful relationship in the positive direction between the “cultural harmony” and the “positive religious treatment” determined (r=.269). Therefore, it is believed that providing spiritual care to refugees students will boost their levels of cultural harmony. Summary: The purpose of this study is to reveal what religious handling activities the refugee students who have been forced to migrate for destructive reasons such as war and rights violations and who continue their lives in Turkey have applied to overcome this traumatic life and the relationship of this preference with cultural harmony. The fact that religion has important functions in addressing all kinds of difficulties, including compulsory immigration, makes it a matter of interest and curiosity for what kind of religious process they are experiencing in order to make their lives suitable. This curious research is based on the assumption that refugees are fighting difficulties using a more positive religious approach and are trying to catch cultural harmony with this fight. The scale technique has been used in research according to the interactive scanning method. To obtain the quantitative data of the study, the scales 'Cultural Compatibility' and 'Religious Methods' were used along with the personal information form. The sample of the study consists of 112 volunteers to the study chosen by random sample from Syrian, Iraqi and Afghan refugee students who continue their studies in the various departments of the University of Karabuk in the 2017-2018 academic year and in the different schools of the National Education Directorate of Karabuk at high school level.  When the data is analyzed, the average is calculated first by obtaining the total scores of the scales. T-test (Independent Samples T-test), one-way variance analysis (Oneway ANOVA) and Scheffe test were used to show whether the levels of cultural conformity of students vary according to various variables. In view of the relationships with religious dealing, the non-parametric tests, according to the normality test results, were applied with the 'Man Whitney U' and 'Kruskall Wallis H' tests. In the study of the correlation test for the determination of the relationship between cultural harmony and religious dealing, the statistical significance level is based on .05 p value. According to the research findings, the cultural harmony (=3,27) and the levels of positive religious behavior of the sample group are above the average (=3,42), and the levels of negative religious behavior are below the average (=1,77). The cultural conformity levels of the sample group have shown significant statistical differences from demographic variables only according to the sample’s conformity. Accordingly, the levels of cultural harmony of Syrian students are higher than those of Iraqi (= 3,48), Afghan (= 3,19) and Afghan (= 3,06) and the difference between them is statistically significant (p<.01). There were no significant relationships between the 'negative religious treatment' levels of the sample group and demographic and some independent variables, while the 'positive religious treatment' levels and demographic variables have only seen statistically significant differences between nationality, gender and age range. According to this, the levels of positive religious behavior of girls (= 64,46) are higher than the levels of male students (= 47,32).  The difference between them is statistically significant (p<.01). In the study that also found that the difference between the students between 21 and 24 years of age was higher (= 70,54) and that the difference between the students between 14 and 16 years of age (= 47,47) reached the level of significance, the positive level of religious behavior among the students from Syria (= 62,91) was higher and the average of the students from Afghanistan (= 42,63) reached a significant level of difference (p<.05). Moreover, research findings have found a meaningful relationship between the religious approach of cultural harmony and the positive approach of religious harmony (r=.269, n=112, p=.004). Forced migration due to wars is a traumatic life involving material and spiritual losses. The great contribution of spirituality in the fight against such negative experiences that lead to severe and high levels of stress is through positive religious dealing. In fact, religious and spiritual beliefs help the victim of the trauma, by providing meaning-seeking responses, to provide him with cognitive satisfaction, as well as the feeling of submission that the faith brings, to pass to the stage of acceptance of the situation and to contribute to the post-trauma development as well as to the fight against the trauma. The fact that religion, especially forced immigration, produces a function that facilitates the re-adaptation level of the individual who falls in disappointment in the face of obstacles that exceed human power, places it in a separate place. In fact, some studies show that in a positive relationship with God in troubled times, the orientation to the elements of positive religious treatment, such as trial, patience, gratefulness, prayer, confidence, refuge to God and re-comprehension of life, has protective, healing and compensatory effects on the mental and physical health. The reasonable, satisfying and convincing explanations of Zira make religion an important source of resistance for people. Research findings show the existence of a relationship that reaches the level of meaning between refugee students' cultural harmony and their orientation to "positive religious dealing" activities. Therefore, it is believed that the involvement of refugee students in spiritual guidance and support activities will contribute more to the integration process. It also turns out that it is important that both refugee students and local people and students will prevent each other from entering into a self-educative approach and to carry out valuable projects and activities that will develop the culture of living together and that these activities will be supported by both civil society organizations and the government. It is believed that the opening of free language courses to eradicate the language problem, which is one of the great obstacles to integration, and the establishment of social and cultural networks in which students can develop more compatible relationships at the campus and around it, can make a positive contribution to this.
