108 volunteer leader candidates were participated in our study, by reaching 86.4% of 125
people participating in the Training of Camp Learship organized in Kapizli April 23 Scouting
and Camp Training Center in Silifke District of Mersin between 28 January and 2 February
2013.In our study, it was aimed to examine the self-respect and decision-making styles in
decision-making of individuals participating in the Training of Camp Learship in terms of some
variables. To achieve this goal, it was determined, by using "Melbourne Decision-Making
Questionary" developed by Mann and Ark. (1998) and Personal Information Form consisting of
7 questions. The data were evaluated by SPSS package statistical software and the
significance level was taken as p<0.05.
Finally; while examining the self-respect and decision-making styles in decision-making of
individuals participating in the Training of Camp Learship in terms of "gender, age and
education level"; it was observed that difference between score averages of sub-dimensions
of decision-making styles in terms of age variables is in the sub-dimension of "suspensive
decision-making style", and that also no difference in the gender and education level was
observed. Consequently, it was found that as age grows, they have more suspensive decisionmaking
style.
