matters of family economy, what kind of problems they encounter, whether or not they
need training, in which topics they need training and how training should be given,
with the aim of determining educational needs of the families with regard to family
economy. As seen in Table 1, opinions of the families about family economy gather
around five themes according to results of the content analysis. They were collected
under titles of (1) problematic/unconscious consumer behaviours of the families, (2)
problems resulting from income deficiency, (3) precautionary positive consumer behaviours,
(4) conscious / positive consumer behaviours, (5) information sources and suggestions
regarding training. In addition, there are 49 sub-codes within the scope of
these five themes. Findings and comments obtained with regard to educational needs
of the families in dimension of the economy are revealed below based on each theme
and related codes.
