Depressive Symptoms in 5–6-Year-Old Children: The Role of Family Resilience and Family Functioning

Abstract

This study examined the relationships between depressive symptoms observed in children aged 5–6 and two family-related variables: family resilience and perceived family functioning. Using a quantitative correlational survey design, the study was conducted with 255 parents selected through criterion sampling and voluntary participation. Data were collected through the Childhood Depressive Symptom Assessment Scale, the Family Resilience Scale, and the Perceived Family Functioning Scale. Following assumption testing, Pearson correlation, multiple linear regression, and a three-step hierarchical multiple regression analysis controlling for demographic variables were performed. The findings indicated that several subdimensions of family resilience and family functioning were significantly associated with distinct patterns of depressive symptoms in children. In particular, self-efficacy and commitment to life emerged as more salient components of family resilience, whereas intra-familial communication and positive affect, together with boundaries, stood out as stronger predictors within family functioning. Overall, the results suggest that family processes in early childhood are meaningfully related to children’s depressive symptoms and underscore the importance of family-focused preventive and supportive interventions.

5-6 Yaş Çocuklarda Depresif Belirtiler: Aile Yılmazlığı ve İşlevselliğinin Rolü

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, 5–6 yaş çocuklarda gözlemlenen depresif belirtiler ile aile yılmazlığı ve algılanan aile işlevselliği arasındaki ilişkiler incelenmiştir. Nicel araştırma yaklaşımı çerçevesinde ilişkisel tarama modeliyle yürütülen çalışmanın örneklemini, ölçüt örnekleme ve gönüllü katılım esasına göre belirlenen 255 ebeveyn oluşturmuştur. Veriler Çocuklar İçin Depresif Belirti Değerlendirme Ölçeği, Aile Yılmazlık Ölçeği ve Algılanan Aile İşlevselliği Ölçeği aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Varsayım testlerinin ardından Pearson korelasyon, çoklu doğrusal regresyon ve demografik değişkenlerin kontrol edildiği üç aşamalı hiyerarşik çoklu regresyon analizleri gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bulgular, aile yılmazlığı ve aile işlevselliğine ilişkin bazı alt boyutların çocuklardaki farklı depresif belirti örüntüleriyle anlamlı biçimde ilişkili olduğunu göstermiştir. Özellikle aile yılmazlığında ebeveyn öz-yetkinliği ve yaşama bağlılık, aile işlevselliğinde ise aile içi iletişim ve olumlu duygulanım ile sınırlar alt boyutları daha belirgin yordayıcılar olarak öne çıkmıştır. Sonuç olarak, erken çocukluk döneminde aile süreçlerinin çocukların depresif belirtileriyle ilişkili olduğu ve aile odaklı önleyici ile destekleyici müdahalelerin önem taşıdığı söylenebilir.
