Abstract (2. Language): 
The present study was conducted to investigate awareness of the household about recycling symbol and their attitudes towards the recycle of packaging wastes in Turkey. The research data were gathered through questionnaires filled by 272 households in Ankara Province in February-March of the year 2013. Logit model was employed and model estimations were performed. According to the research findings most of solid wastes are collected from waste repositories and streets in primitive and unhealthy manners and only the half of packaging wastes are able to be recycled. Since these wastes are most of the time mixed with organic wastes, they are not able to be fully recycled. According to logit model results; age, level of education and income were found to be significant factors affecting awareness and attitudes of the households about recycling symbol. As the households get older, awareness of recycling symbol rate decreased. Level of education had positive impacts on awareness of recycling symbol. Increasing educational levels also increased the ratio of awareness households. Increased income has a negative impact on recycling symbol awareness.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Bu çalışmada; Türkiye'de hane halkının geri dönüşüm sembolü farkındalığı ve onların ambalaj atıklarının geri dönüşümüne yönelik tutumları araştırılmıştır. Araştırma verileri 272 hane halkından anket yöntemiyle 2013 Şubat- Mart döneminde Ankara’da elde edilmiştir. Logit model kullanılarak model tahminleri yapılmıştır. Araştırma bulgularına göre, ambalaj atıkların çoğu çöp depolarından ve sokaklardan ilkel ve sağlıksız bir şekilde toplanmakta ve sadece ambalaj atıklarının yarısı geri dönüştürülebilmektedir. Bu atıklar çoğun zaman organik atıklarla karıştırıldığı için tamamen geri dönüştürülememektedirler. Logit model sonuçlarına göre; yaş, eğitim düzeyi ve gelirin, hane halkının geri dönüşüm sembolü hakkındaki bilinç ve tutumlarını etkileyen önemli faktörler olduğu belirlenmiştir. Yaşın artması, geri dönüşüm sembolü farkındalığı oranı azalmıştır. Eğitim düzeyi, geri dönüşüm sembolü farkındalığını pozitif etkilemiştir. Artan eğitim seviyesi aynı zamanda hane halkı geri dönüşüm sembolü farkındalığı da artırmıştır. Artan gelir geri dönüşüm sembolü farkındalığı üzerinde negatif etki yapmıştır.
