تاثير كنكور بر سلامت عمومي ، عزت‏ نفس و نشانه‏ هاي اختلالات رواني راه ‏نيافتگان به دانشگاه

The Effect of University Entrance Examination on General Health, Self-Esteem and Psychic Disorders Symptom of Those Who Were not Admitted to the University

در حالي كه به زعم اكثر افراد، اعم از متخصص و غيرمتخصص، تاثير منفي كنكور بر شرايط رواني راه‎نيافتگان به دانشگاه امري قطعي تلقي مي‌شود، برخي نيز معتقدند كه مشكل اصلي به نظام آموزشي و به طور مشخص به آموزش و پرورش برمي‏گردد، نه به كنكور. پژوهش حاضر با هدف بررسي تاثيرات كنكور بر شرايط رواني راه‏نيافتگان به دانشگاه اجرا شد. بر اساس اين هدف سطح سلامت عمومي، عزت‏نفس و نشانه‏هاي اختلالات رواني در بين راه‏نيافتگان به دانشگاه نسبت به دانش‏آموزاني كه هنوز در كنكور شركت نكرده‎اند و همچنين، پذيرفته‎شدگان در كنكور سنجيده ‏شد. نتايج نشان داد كه سلامت عمومي راه‏نيافتگان به دانشگاه به‏طور معني‏داري پايين‏تر از سلامت عمومي‏دانش‏آموزاني بود كه هنوز در كنكور شركت نكرده بودند؛ بين سلامت عمومي پذيرفته‏شدگان در كنكور و راه‏نيافتگان به دانشگاه تفاوت معني‏داري وجود نداشت. همچنين، نتايج نشان داد كه از نظر نمرات عزت‏نفس، دانشجويان بالاترين وضعيت و پشت‏كنكوري‎ها پايين‏ترين وضعيت را داشتند و در نهايت،ً بجز اضطراب در بقيه اختلالات اندازه‏گيري شده تفاوت معني‏داري بين ميانگين نمرات مربوط به راه‏نيافتگان به دانشگاه با دانش‏آموزان و دانشجويان وجود نداشت.

While majority of people (specialists and non-specialists) are sure of negative effects of Iranian University Entrance Exam (Konkour) on its failures, some others are of this opinion that the main problem is not related to Konkour but to the educational system. The present research attempts to investigate the effects of Konkour on psychic conditions of its failures. According to this aim, the general health, self esteem and psychic disorders of those who failed Konkour are compared with those who were admitted to university and the students of last grade in high school. The results show that general health of those who did not admitted to university was significantly less than that of the students of last grade in high school. However, there was no significant difference between the general health of those who were admitted to university and the ones who were not. The results also show that those students who were admitted to university got the highest position with self esteem and those who were not admitted got the lowest position and finally, except anxiety, there were no significant differences between the mean’s scores of those who were not admitted to university and the mean’s scores of university students and high school students.
