Abstract

Öz
Borderline kişilik bozukluğuna sahip bireylerin öz-kontrol mekanizmalarında sorun vardır, düşünce ve davranışlarında istikrarsızlık görülmektedir. Araştırma, borderline kişilik özellikleri ile utangaçlık ve öfke ilişkinin incelenmesini amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmada ilişkisel tarama modeli kullanılmıştır. Basit seçkisiz örneklem yöntemi kullanılan çalışmaya 18-45 yaş arası 207 erkek (50.5%) ve 203 kadın (49.5%) olmak üzere toplam 410 yetişkin katılmıştır. Araştırmada kullanılan veri toplama araçları Utangaçlık Ölçeği (UÖ), Borderline Kişilik Ölçeği (BKÖ), Durumluk-Sürekli Öfke Ölçeği, Kişisel Bilgi Formu’dur. Bu araştırma için toplanan veriler SPSS 25 programıyla analiz edilmiştir. Test sonucunda normal dağılım sağlayan sürekli değişkenler için karşılaştırmalarda Bağımsız t-testi ve ANOVA Testi kullanılmıştır. Sürekli değişkenler arasındaki ilişki Pearson Korelasyon katsayısı ile incelenmiştir. Araştırmanın sonuçları incelendiğinde borderline kişilik özelliklerinin düzeyi arttıkça sürekli öfke, içselleştirilmiş öfke ve dışsallaştırılmış öfke düzeylerinin ve utangaçlık düzeyinin arttığı; öfke kontrol düzeyinin azaldığı saptanmıştır. Bununla beraber, borderline kişilik özelliklerinden yoğun öfkenin sürekli öfkeyi, dışsallaştırılmış öfke ve öfkeyi kontrol edebilme becerisini; boşluk duygusunun ise içselleştirilmiş öfke ve utangaçlığı yordadığı görülmektedir.

INVESTIGATION OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN BORDERLINE PERSONALITY TRAITS, SHYNESS AND ANGER

Abstract

Borderline individuals struggle with self-control and exhibit volatility in both their thinking and actions. The main aim of the research is to investigate the relationship between borderline personality traits, shyness and anger. In the study, a relational screening approach was employed. Four hundred ten adults, 207 males (50.5%) and 203 females (49.5%) aged 18-45 years, took part in the study using a simple random sampling method. The study's data collection tools are the Shyness Scale, Borderline Personality Scale-BPQ, Trait Anger (SL- Anger) Scale, and Personal Information Form. The SPSS 25 program was used to analyze the data that were gathered for this study. The Independent T-Test and ANOVA Test were used to compare continuous variables that provide normal distribution as a result of the test. The Pearson Correlation coefficient was used to analyze the relationship between continuous variables. Results indicate that as the level of borderline personality traits increased, the levels of constant anger, internalized anger, externalized anger, and shyness increased; the level of anger control decreased. In addition, intense anger, which is a borderline personality trait, predicts constant anger, externalized anger, and anger control. Emptiness also predicts internalized anger and shyness.
