Abstract
This study investigated the attitudes toward
statistics of the electrical & electronics engineering and geomatic
engineering students who were enrolled in a Turkish university. Survey of
Attitudes toward Statistics-36 (SATS) was used to collect data. The
participants of the study were 62 Engineering students (38 male and 24 female).
They were sophomore students enrolled in either electrical & electronics
engineering (n=28) or geomatic engineering (n=34) departments and had not taken
a university level statistics course before. Both electrical & electronics
engineering students and geomatic engineering students generally had positive
attitudes toward statistics; however, geomatic students tended to have more
neutral attitudes at the end of the semester.

Abstract
Bu çalışma Türkiye’de bir üniversitede
elektrik-elektronik ve harita mühendisliği alanlarında eğitim alan
öğrencilerinin istatistiğe karşı tutumunu araştırmaktadır. Veri toplamak için
İstatistiğe Yönelik Tutum Anketi-36 (İYTA-36) kullanılmıştır. Çalışma, 62
mühendislik öğrencisi (38 Erkek ve 24 Kadın) ile yapılmıştır. Öğrenciler,
elektrik-elektronik veya harita mühendisliği bölümü ikinci sınıfında kayıtlı
olup daha önce üniversite seviyesinde istatistik dersi almamıştır. Hem
elektrik-elektronik hem de harita mühendisliği öğrencilerinin genellikle
istatistiğe karşı olumlu tutumları bulunmakla birlikte, dönem sonunda harita
mühendisliği öğrencilerinin elektrik elektronik mühendisliği öğrencilerine göre
göre daha fazla nötr olma eğilimi gösterdiği tespit edilmiştir.
