Özet

Segregation is one of the biggest obstacles to political and socioeconomic development. After the war that started in 2011, many Syrian people had to leave their countries. Turkey hosts largest refugee population in world. Syrian refugees in Turkey have now become a part of social life. Measuring the segregation of Syrian refugees will help  policies for legislators and decisionmakers.   Within  the  context  of  the  "Data  for  Refugees"  organized  by  Turk Telekom, the segregation was calculated with the mobile call detail records provided to the researchers. Dissimilarity Index (D) and Modified Isolation of Index (MII) were used to measure the segregation. The resulting values are shown on the map of Turkey. According to the Kruskal­Wallis test statistically significant   results   were   found   between   geographical   regions   ( χ 2=14. 98, p=0 .02,df=6 ).
