“…This result is consistent with much earlier work (Barcelona & Ross, 2002;Young et al, 2003;Frauman, 2005;Miller et al, 2008;Arslan, 2014). However, gender was not found a statistically significant determinant of students' campus sports and cultural facility satisfaction in accordance with some selected studies (Shank & Beasley, 1998;Frauman, 2005;Clemes et al, 2008;Sökmen, 2011, Moosmayer & Siems, 2012 in the literature. In contrast to some earlier studies (Terzioğlu & Yazıcı, 2003;Müderrisoğlu et al, 2005), the results in the present study indicated higher income students were less likely to have higher satisfaction.…”

“…In contrast, some past research (Barcelona & Ross, 2002;Terzioğlu & Yazıcı, 2003;Young et al, 2003;Zizzi et al, 2004;Balcı & İlhan, 2006;Tekin et al, 2007;Miller et al, 2008;Lindsey et al, 2009;Lindsey, 2012;de Jager & Gbadamosi, 2013) found that male students were more likely to be participants and other earlier studies (Watson II et al, 2006;Miller et al, 2008;Milton & Patton, 2011) showed that lower-division students (freshmen and sophomores) were more likely to participate in campus recreational facilities. However, earlier research (Shank & Beasley, 1998;Frauman, 2005;Clemes et al, 2008;Sökmen, 2011;Moosmayer & Siems, 2012) indicated that there were no differences in the perceived importance of quality of campus life facilities with respect to students' gender. Marital status was also a contributing indicator, while results of a number of studies (Terzioğlu & Yazıcı, 2003;Frauman, 2005;Miller et al, 2008) revealed that married students were less likely to participate in campus recreational programs.…”

The main purpose of this paper was to determine the predictors of student satisfaction focusing on campus recreational sports and cultural facilities. The present study utilized data from a written-questionnaire administered to one thousand adult undergraduate students. The dependent variable used in predicting student satisfaction was satisfaction levels of the respondents. Due to the ordinal nature of the dependent variable, an ordered logit model was performed to determine demographic and socio-economic determinants of campus sports and cultural facility satisfaction. Ordered logit estimation results revealed that younger aged, higher income, tuition loan holder, classical or folk music listener students studying in social sciences were less likely to have higher satisfaction than their counterparts. In addition, for many selected services, most of the students declared their dissatisfaction. Although there is an increasing number of studies conducted on student satisfaction in the existing literature, studies focusing on campus sports and cultural facility satisfaction are limited. This study is probably the first attempt to examine the predictors of campus sports and cultural facility satisfaction in northeastern Turkey using one of the categorical data estimation method.

This paper explores the interrelationships of the key influences on student satisfaction via multivariate analysis from three groups of university students in two popular private universities in Malaysia. The correlation coefficient and structural model indicated that student satisfaction is influenced not only by academic quality, but also by the university core services, information technology services, and skill building. These dimensions are linked to one another. The strong interrelationships between these dimensions are indicative that holistic approach needs to be adopted rather than dealing with each dimension in isolation in creating a valued education. Significant performance gaps of key influences indicated that the satisfaction levels are below students' expectation despite the satisfaction scores being above average. Academic assessment, teaching quality, and IT are areas where a university management needs to prioritize resources in order to increase student satisfaction. Students who perceived higher value are more likely to have higher repurchase intention.

“…Educators share the opinion that solving these problems that threaten the social order and disrupt the peacefulness of a society is possible with an effective values education (Deveci & Selanik Ay, 2009). The tendency to address the concept of value in educational research has been increasing with constantly, while there has also been an increase in the number of studies in the literature on values education in different disciplines (Bills & Husbands, 2005;Lovat & Clement, 2008;Thomson & Bernhardt, 2010;Webster, 2010;Moosmayer & Siems, 2012;Law, 2013;Thornberg & Oğuz, 2013;Sundström & Wolming, 2014;Choo, 2015).…”

No matter what century we live in, even though the tools we use change from age to age, man is not a creature who can be considered or understood without the concept of values. Although we have different religions, languages, races and cultures, the personality of man is always constructed through values. Values are factors that directly influences human life and society in a positive or negative way. This study suggests that values education aimed at teaching individuals certain values is not sufficiently practiced by families in Turkey. In order to address the problem, this study aimed to increase the awareness of family members regarding values and help them turn values into behavior in everyday life. To this end, a 24-month "values education program" involving a set of activities was carried out. Every month, a specific value was chosen taking into account the needs of family members and "value booklets" were prepared using four sub-dimensions of the chosen value. 10 families participated in the program and the data was collected from 25 individuals. The resulting data was subjected to content analysis. 3 main themes were found to be important in the light of the data: moral development, development of communication skills, and religiousness. These themes were thought to be beneficial in terms of understanding the effectiveness and importance of family members' internalizing values and turning them into behavior in everyday life.
