In the evaluation of general information about students, frequency (f) and percentage (%), mean (X) and standard deviation (Ss) values were calculated. Independent sample t-test and One Way Anova tests were used for comparisons between groups, Pearson correlation analysis was used for the relationships between age groups and intelligence types, and the significance level was accepted as p= 0.05. According to the results of our research, it has been seen that the students who won higher education with a special talent exam have different intelligence areas according to gender, age, department, income status variables and these intelligence areas develop at different levels. Social, environmental, economic, etc. of these intelligence areas. considered to be affected by the circumstances. It is necessary to evaluate the theory of multiple intelligences not only as a theory of intelligence, but as a philosophy of education and training.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between organizational cynism perception levels and organizational commitment levels of the academic staff from sports sciences departments at higher education institutions. The population of the study consists of all academic staff from sports sciences departments at higher education institutions and 396 sets of data (n=291 male, n=105 female) were collected from the academic staff.To determine the organizational cynism levels of the academic staff, an 13-item scale “Organizational Cynism Scale,” which was developed by Brandes, Dhalwadkar and Dean (1999) was utilized in the study. The reliability score was calculated as α=0.93 and the Turkish adaptation of the scale was also performed by Kalağan (2009). Besides, in order to determine the organizational commitment levels of the participants, an 18-item scale “Organizational Commitment Scale”, which was developed by Allen and Meyer (1996) and used in Turkish format by Belli (2014), was utilized in the study.The data were analyzed with SPSS 20.0 packet program. In addition to descriptive statistics, t-tests (Independent t-Test) and analysis of variance (One-Way ANOVA) were carried out in order to identify the differences in terms of demographic variables. Tukey HSD test was utilized to specify the groups from which significant differences were derived and Pearson correlation test was also used in order to examine the relationship between variables.  All findings were considered according to p<0.05 significance level in the study.The results of the study suggest that the organizational commitment levels of the academic staff are medium-degree and their organizational cynism perceptions are low. In terms of organizational cynism, some significant differences were found out regarding the length of time spent working at that institution, administrative function and change of title variables. On the other hand, there were also some significant differences in variables like gender, age and the length of time spent at that institution in terms of organizational commitment as well as administrative function and change of title variables, those being similar to the results of organizational cynism. Additionally, it was found out that there existed medium-degree and negative relationship between organizational cynism and organizational commitment.Extended English abstract is in the end of PDF (TURKISH) file. ÖzetBu araştırma, spor eğitimi veren yükseköğretim kurumlarındaki öğretim elemanlarının örgütsel sinizm algıları ile örgütsel bağlılıkları arasındaki etkileşimi belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın evrenini, Türkiye’de spor eğitimi veren yükseköğretim kurumlarındaki öğretim elemanları oluşturmuş ve 396 (n=291 erkek, n=105 kadın) akademisyene ulaşılmıştır.Örgütsel sinizm algısının belirlenmesine yönelik Brandes, Dhalwadkar ve Dean (1999) tarafından geliştirilmiş ve Kalağan (2009) tarafından geçerlilik-güvenirliği (α=0.93) ve Türkçe’ye uyarlaması yapılmış olan 13 maddelik “Örgütsel Sinizm Ölçeği” kullanılmıştır. Örgütsel bağlılık düzeylerini belirlemek amacıyla da Allen ve Meyer’in (1996) geliştirdikleri ve Belli (2014) tarafından Türkçe formunun kullanıldığı 18 maddeden oluşan “Örgütsel Bağlılık Ölçeği”nden yararlanılmıştır.Veriler SPSS 20,0 paket programı aracılığıyla analiz edilmiştir. Tanımlayıcı istatistiklerin yanında katılımcıların demografik değişkenlerine göre farklılıklarını tespit etmek için t-testi ve tek yönlü varyans analizi (ANOVA) kullanılmıştır. ANOVA testi sonucunda anlamlı farklılığın hangi gruptan kaynaklandığını görmek için Tukey HSD testinden yararlanılmıştır. Değişkenler arası ilişkiyi sorgulamak için ise Pearson korelasyon analizinden faydalanılmıştır. Araştırmada tüm bulgular p<0.05 anlamlılık düzeyine göre dikkate alınmıştır.Araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre; öğretim elemanlarının örgütsel sinizmleri düşük, örgütsel bağlılık hisleri ise orta seviyede çıkmıştır. Örgütsel sinizmde ve çeşitli alt boyutlarda; kurumdaki hizmet süresi, idari görev ve ünvan değişkenlerinde farklılıklar tespit edilmiş, örgütsel bağlılıkta ise farklılıklar yine idari görev ve ünvan değişkenlerinde görülmekle birlikte cinsiyet, yaş ve meslekteki hizmet süresi değişkenlerinde ortaya çıkmıştır. Ayrıca örgütsel sinizm ile örgütsel bağlılık arasında orta düzeyde negatif yönlü bir ilişkinin varlığı belirlenmiştir.

Educational system is the most important social institution, which provides the development of a personality and frames his/her worldview and the conception of subjective well-being. Despite the large number of studies on the issue of psychological and pedagogical security of educational environment, the sphere of higher education still remains underexplored. The available empiric material has not received sufficient methodological justification and conceptualization. This article aims to provide the conceptualization of the risk category as applied to the educational environment of a higher education institution, as well as empiric investigation of the risks within the educational environment as viewed by applicants and students.Materials and methods. 213 applicants and 547 students of the Kuban State Technological University took part in the survey. The following investigation methods were used: expert assessment, interview, questioning, content analysis, analysis of means method, cluster analysis and factor analysis.Investigation results. Comparative examination of the manifestation degree of risks within the educational environment as viewed by applicants and students of higher education institution showed significant differences in the assessment of risk by these groups of respondents. From the point of view of applicants, the main risks are connected with social and psychological aspects of the educational environment of a higher education institution, relations within student groups and interaction with teachers, as well as with the issues related to the educational management and leisure arrangement. As viewed by the students, the risks within the educational environment include external and social and psychological risk factors, motivating risks and risks arising from the learning process organization and management and the related issues. Applicants’ notion of the risks within the educational environment of a higher education institution was mainly influenced by information they received from media and by the opinion of their relatives and age mates.Consideration and conclusions. It was proved that the applicants’ idea of the risks within the educational environment of a higher education institution is determined by the opinion of people they know personally, however it changes during the process of studying in higher education institution and acquiring their own experience of being within the environment. The investigation results allow creating a model of psychological and pedagogical security within the educational environment of a higher education institution. This model makes it possible to forecast main risks of the educational environment, their development, and evolvement and find solution to them.
