Özet:

 Having occurred throughout the history of humanity, migrations are a social movement closely related to societies and can cause various sociological, psychological, economic, and political problems. The most fundamental reason for migration is individuals desire to have a better life. The turmoil in Afghanistan, the Arab Spring, the Syrian civil war, and political instability in recent years have increased mass migration movements. Undoubtedly, Türkiye is one of the countries to have been highly affected by mass migration movements and received large numbers of migrants. The high rate of increase in the number of immigrants in Türkiye has resulted in the produced policies being insufficient, thus necessitating the production of new policies regarding immigrants. This study uses data from the last wave of the World Values Survey regarding Türkiye and involves three different statistical analyses. The first stage of the study classifies the individuals living in Türkiye using a latent class analysis in terms of tolerance toward immigrants. According to the analysis results, individuals are divided into three groups: tolerant, indecisive, and intolerant. The next stage evaluates the socioeconomic and demographic variables that distinguish these three classes from one another using a multi-category logistic regression analysis. The results show the variables of working status, income level, belief level, and political view to be determinative in identifying which of the three classes individuals will be found. The last stage visualizes the relationship between education level and tolerance toward immigrants using correspondence analysis.

 İnsanlık tarihi boyunca süregelen göç etme hali toplumları yakından ilgilendiren ve sosyolojik, psikolojik, iktisadi, siyasi olarak çeşitli sorunlara neden olabilen toplumsal bir harekettir. Göçün sebepleri arasında en temel olanı bireylerin daha iyi bir yaşama sahip olma istekleridir. Son yıllarda yaşanan Arap Baharı, Suriye iç savaşı, siyasi istikrarsızlık nedeniyle meydana gelen Afganistandaki karışıklıklar kitlesel göç hareketlerinin artmasına sebep olmuştur. Hiç şüphesiz bahsedilen toplu göç hareketlerinden oldukça fazla etkilenen ve yoğun olarak göç alan ülkelerden biri Türkiyedir. Türkiyede göçmen sayısındaki artış hızının yüksek olması üretilen politikaların yeterli gelmemesine sebep olarak göçmenlerle ilgili yeni politikalar üretilmesini gerekli kılmıştır. Bu çalışmada Türkiyede göçmenlere yönelik hoşgörü Dünya Değerler Anketinin son dalgasına ait veriden hareketle detaylı olarak incelenmiştir. Çalışmanın ilk aşamasında Türkiyede yaşayan bireyler göçmenlere yönelik toleransları açısından Gizli Sınıf Analizi ile sınıflanmıştır. Bu analiz sonucuna göre bireyler Hoşgörülü olanlar, Kararsızlar ve Hoşgörülü Olmayanlar şeklinde üç sınıfa ayrılmıştır. Çalışmanın ikinci aşamasında bu üç sınıfı birbirinden ayıran sosyoekonomik ve demografik değişkenler Çok Kategorili Lojistik Regresyon Analizi ile değerlendirilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgulara göre bireylerin çalışma durumları, gelir düzeyleri, inanç düzeyleri ve politik görüşleri, onların hoşgörü düzeylerine göre sınıflanmalarında ayırt edici değişkenlerdir. Çalışmanın son aşamada ise, eğitim düzeyi ve göçmenlere yönelik hoşgörü düzeyleri arasındaki ilişki Uyum Analizi görselleştirilmiştir.
