The research aims to
examine the changes in the numerical, verbal and technology intensive problem
solving (TIPS) scores of adults according to the data of the PIAAC application
implemented in 2016 and to examine the predictions of TIPS skills by other skill
scores. The PIAAC aims to provide an overview of the “basic information
processing skills in of adults aged 16-65. The focus is on verbal skills,
numerical skills and problem-solving skills in technology-intensive
environments. As a result of the analyzes, t test was conducted to determine
whether there is a difference between the numerical skill scores, verbal skill
scores and TIPS skill scores of the individuals according to gender and it was
seen that numerical skill scores and verbal skill scores showed significant
differences according to gender. However, there was no significant difference
between TIPS skill scores according to gender. TIPS skill scores, it was seen
that the interaction of the individuals with the computer was made by asking
and the individuals who did not want and did not know the use were not involved
in the application. It is also among the results that the TIPS skills scores
are predicted by verbal and numerical skill scores and the increase in
numerical and verbal skill scores leads to an increase in TIPS skill scores. It
can be interpreted that the change in TIPS skills by age and the high
relationship between other skill scores may also be related to the education
process. In addition, the distribution of TIPS skill scores according to the
educational status of the individuals was examined and it was observed that
there were significant differences in the educational status of the three
groups.
