With the spread of individual computer ownership since the 1990s, the transformationinto an information society has accelerated. With the development of multimedia tools, especially with thecreation of the internet infrastructure, not only difficulties have arisen in accessing information, but alsoconditions suitable for the production of new information have been provided. These developments acceleratedthe economic and social developments of societies. In this context, computer skill levels, which should be inqualified manpower, have also been a subject of interest in the academic field. In this study, multi-criteriadecision-making methods and individual computer skill levels of Turkey and European countries are discussed.The data set used in the study was obtained from the individual computer skills level research on the EuropeanStatistical Office website. The criteria in the data set are weighted by the Entropy method. Comparison ofindividual computer usage levels by countries was carried out with the ARAS method. Considering thelimitations of the research and the findings obtained by the Aras method, it can be said that Iceland, Finland andthe Netherlands, which were found to be the most successful in the ranking of individual computer skills, werefollowed by other countries. |
