Purpose: In this meta-analysis study, it was aimed to analyze uncertainty intolerance and uncertainty management researches in educational institutions using meta-analysis method. Design/Methodology/Approach: This research was carried out as a type of group comparison meta-analysis, which is one of the types of meta-analysis. In the meta-evaluation, eight studies that met the inclusion criteria were reached. By combining these studies, a study was conducted on 2704 sample groups. In determining the meta-analysis model type of the research, first a funnel plot diagram was drawn for a general impression of publication bias, and then statistical calculations were carried out to reach a real conclusion. As a result of the diagram and statistical calculations, it was decided that there was no publication bias in the studies included in the meta-analysis. After determining that there was no publication bias, heterogeneity test was performed for model selection. Findings: As a result of the analysis, it was decided to interpret the meta-analysis according to the random effects model. Title and publication type were determined as moderators for heterogeneity. As a result of the meta-analysis, it was found that research into intolerance of uncertainty and uncertainty management in educational institutions had an average effect, the moderator effect of the theses was higher in the calculations regarding the moderator effect, and the titles of teachers and education administrators did not have any moderator effect in the title variable. Highlights: It was seen that the number of empirical studies on uncertainty intolerance and uncertainty management in educational institutions was few. It was determined that the studies could not provide the big picture of uncertainty management, even the effect sizes of the studies were not calculated in any of the studies, and a statistical conclusion could not be reached on whether the teachers' intolerance of uncertainty and uncertainty management perceptions work in practice. Therefore, the need to synthesize results on the effectiveness of intolerance of uncertainty and uncertainty management research emerged.
This research aimed to investigate the effectiveness of e-school system application by meta synthesis method. The paradigm of this research, which was carried out in the qualitative research approach, is interpretive paradigm based on the philosophy of nominalism. Qualitative studies conducted between 2010-2022 on the effectiveness of the e-school system, which was selected by criterion sampling, one of the purposive sampling methods, were included in the research. For this purpose, in order to reach the thesis and articles on the internet, "e-school" keyword was searched in the Council of Higher Education National Thesis Center, TR Index, Turkish Education Index, Academic Index databases. It was seen that the studies planned to be included in the research were qualitatively educational studies between 2010 and 2022, had a sampling within the borders of Turkey, the articles were published in peer-reviewed journals, and the thesis was included in the thesis bank. Studies that could be suitable for meta-synthesis were carefully examined, and a total of 7 studies, 2 Articles and 5 Theses, which met the inclusion criteria of the research, were included in the research. The studies included in the study were examined by thematic analysis, descriptive analysis and content analysis in terms of publication year and type, purpose, research model, sampling selection, data collection tools, data analysis methods, distribution of working and processes of the e-school system and the results achieved. In the study, it was found out that the majority of studies were carried out in the recent decade, their objectives generally included the evaluation of e-school application in line with the opinions of stakeholders, a holistic single case and embedded multiple case designs were used in the context of the research model, sampling method were purposive sampling, semi-structured interview form were used for data collection tools, data were analyzed based on content analysis and the effectiveness of the application of the e-school system were at high level.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
