THE PERCEPTION OF DISCRIMINATION IN TURKEY At first glance, it is seen that those tolerate discrimination against young people, the elderly, women and physically disabled people are below the average and the median of those who can accept discrimination in all areas under certain conditions. Furthermore, we find that interlocutors intolerable to these types of discrimination are higher than the general average and the median of those who do not tolerate any discrimination in any sphere of life. In other words, we can mention that there is a relatively high sensitivity to discrimination against young people, the elderly, women and physically disabled people. Although the proportion of those who tolerate discrimination based on mental disability and sexual identity is lower than the average and median values of the general sample, we see that the rate of not tolerating discrimination against the same groups without compromise are below the sample average. In other words, we understand that discrimination against mentally disabled people and discrimination based on sexual identity are more tolerable in certain areas of life (work, neighbourhood, etc.) than the general average. On the other hand, in both columns, the values show that the proportion is more insensitive than the average regarding the discriminatory attitude towards refugees. When we examine the other types of discrimination, we see that the proportion of interlocutors tolerating discrimination based on ethnic identity and belief in different spheres of life is above the average/median values of the sample. However, then, we also see that the interlocutors' proportion that does not tolerate these types of discrimination in any spheres of life is above the average value and around the median value of the sample. On the one hand, there is a group that tolerates ethnic and religious discrimination more than average in all fields. On the other hand, there is another group above average that does not condone the same forms of discrimination in any spheres of life. Therefore, we can say that discrimination forms based on ethnic identity and belief constitute a field of division/conflict. Graph 10 visualizes the data presented in the first column of Table 1 with the radar graph/spider graph. With this visualization, we can see that the least tolerable forms of discrimination (types of discrimination based on gender, old age, youth, mental disability and physical disability) under certain conditions are in the inner circle. Discrimination based on a sexual identity that appears above the second polygon from inside- out seems to be close to median and mean values. Political view, ethnic identity and belief are the types of discrimination whose values are above the third polygon, and the probability of being tolerated is higher than the other types of discrimination. Finally, discrimination against refugees come close to the outermost perimeter as it is seen as more acceptable in all spheres of life compared to all other forms of discrimination. 26
