Özet:

 


            Seafarers must be able to
communicate effectively in English at sea and in port to ensure the safety and
security of ships, crew and passengers. International Maritime Organization
(IMO) adopted English as the official language to solve the communication problems. Research shows
that the usage of English by seafarers is not encouraged and they have
difficulty in communicating not only among themselves but also with the outside
agencies. In this paper, it is indicated that the interactions onboard are not
only verbal, but also non-verbal that can be realized through Maritime Sign
Language, the purpose of which is to enhance onboard communication. In
addition, it aims to increase the safety on board and interaction among crew members
through the usage of simplified, standardized and universalized sign language,
which proves to be much more efficient in loud working environments or in the
cases where verbal means of communication are inadequate. Within the scope of this
research, descriptive statistics, reliability of questionnaire, ANOVA with Tukey's
test for non-additivity, Hotelling's T-Squared test, Chi-Square, and Factor
analysis are utilized for the interpretation and analysis of quantitative data.
 Therefore, quantitative research design
was used through a self-reported questionnaire to collect data about the
participants’ sea experience, cultural factors, and verbal and non-verbal
communication skills and to investigate the relation between these factors. As the
result analyses conducted, the study indicates that Maritime Sign Language is beneficial
for the marine language.
