Description
We investigated how university students perceive their society. Three-year university students (N=3, 102) that participated in an online survey and were requested to describe “What does society mean to me?” In Study 1, 102 words that were most often used in the collected data were analyzed using Nonmetric Multidimensional Scaling. The results indicated eight clusters and confirmed a dimension showing positive and negative perspectives. In Study 2, 102 words were encoded and 12 codes were extracted, which were classified into three types; four codes suggesting a positive perspective (“growth,” “cooperation,” “connection,” and “learning”), five codes suggesting a negative perspective (“strict,” “tough,” “hard to live,” “difficult,” and “cannot understand”), and three codes suggesting a moderate perspective (“working,” “earning,” and “rules”). In Study 3, correlations between the above 12 codes and their attributes were examined using a chi-square test. Men often used words related to “cooperation” and “earning,” whereas women often used words related to “learning” and “hard to live.” Moreover, words relevant to “connection” were often used in three major metropolitan areas, whereas words related to “hard to live” were often used in rural areas. The 12 codes that were extracted indicated that “Cooperation” was included in codes suggestive of a positive perspective, which is interpreted as university students’ recognition of themselves as the backbone of society.
