Journal Title: Наука і освіта - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 7
Abstract
Forgiveness plays an important role in being able to cope with the negative emotions that arise after the problems and the conflicts experienced by people. The study aims to investigate the forgiveness levels of vocational school stu- dents. In line with this aim, a total of 230 vocational school students consisting of 165 female (71.7%) and 65 male (28.3%) students were surveyed using Heartland Forgiveness Scale. Frequency, percent, mean and standard deviation analyses were used in this study. The research outcomes were computerized and tested with SPSS 16.0 program. Ac- cording to the results of this research, there were 40 (17.4%) students with the low level of forgiveness, 157 (68.3%) respondents with the moderate level, and 33 (14.3%) students with the high one. The mean scores of low forgiveness level (x=14.11), moderate forgiveness level (x=27.40), and high forgiveness level (x=37.33) have been found. The fact that the students have a forgiveness average of 26.53 cannot be considered as negative, however, if the average score increases it will be better for students’ psychological health. Some recommendations to increase this score have been presented in the paper.
