Abstract

Ruh sağlığı okuryazarlığı bireyin ruhsal hastalıkları anlama, tanıma ve yönetmedeki yetkinliği olarak tanımlanabilir. Toplum ruh sağlığını koruma ve geliştirmede önemli olan bu kavrama yönelik ülkemizde yeterli sayıda araştırma olmadığı görülmektedir. Tanımlayıcı türde yapılan bu araştırmayla bir il merkezinde yaşayan bireylerin ruh sağlığı okuryazarlığı düzeyinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. İç Anadolu’da bir il merkezinde yaşayan 388 bireye gelişigüzel kartopu yöntemiyle ulaşılmış, araştırma verileri çevirimiçi form ile toplanmıştır. Veriler için Tanıtıcı Bilgi Formu ve Ruh Sağlığı Okuryazarlığı Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Veri analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler, Bağımsız Örneklemlerde t Testi, Tek Yönlü Varyans Analizi (ANOVA) ve Tukey testi yapılmıştır. Araştırmada bireylerin Bilgi Odaklı alt boyut puan ortalaması 7.20±2.39, İnanç Odaklı alt boyutu 4.76±1.76, Kaynak Odaklı alt boyutu 2.80±1.25 ve ölçek toplamının 14.76±3.67 olduğu; cinsiyetin, eğitim düzeyinin, çalışma durumunun, ruhsal konulara ilgili olmanın ve ruhsal hastalığı olan bireyi tanımanın önemli farklılık yarattığı saptanmıştır (p<0.05). Araştırmada yaş, medeni durum, ekonomik durum ve kronik hastalığa sahip olmanın ise önemli bir fark yaratmadığı bulunmuştur (p>0.05). Ölçek maddelerinden alınan ortalama puan incelendiğinde şizofreni, depresyon, hastalık oluşumu, intihar, iyileşme, tedaviler ve hizmet kullanımına yönelik maddelerin diğerlerine göre daha düşük puan aldığı görülmüştür. Araştırma sonucunda katılımcıların ruh sağlığı okuyazarlığının yüksek düzeyde olduğu ve sosyodemografik değişkenlerden etkilendiği söylenebilir. Ruh sağlığı okuryazarlığını geliştirmeye yönelik ileri düzey çalışmaların yapılması önerilir.

Investigation of Mental Health Literacy of Individuals Living In A City Center

Year 2021, , 660 - 675, 24.10.2021
https://doi.org/10.47793/hp.993929

Abstract

Mental health literacy can be defined as an individual's competence in understanding, recognizing, and managing mental illnesses. It is seen that there is not enough research in our country on this concept, which is important in protecting and improving community mental health. With this descriptive study, it was aimed to examine the mental health literacy level of individuals living in a city center. 388 individuals living in a city center in Central Anatolia were reached by random snowball method, and the research data were collected with an online form. Introductory Information Form and Mental Health Literacy Scale were used for the data. Descriptive statistics, Independent Samples t-Test, One-Way ANOVA and Tukey's test were used in data analysis. In the study, the Knowledge-oriented sub-scale mean score of the individuals was 7.20±2.39; the Belief-oriented sub-scale was 4.76±1.76, the Resource-oriented sub-scale was 2.80±1.25, and the total scale was 14.76±3.67, and gender, education level, working status, being interested in mental issues and knowing the individual with mental illness made a significant difference(p<0.05). In the study, it was found that age, marital status, economic status and having a chronic disease did not make a significant difference(p>0.05). When the items of the scale were examined, it was seen that the items related to schizophrenia, depression, disease occurrence, suicide, recovery, treatments, and service use had lower scores than the others. As a result of the research, it was determined that the participants had a high level of mental health literacy and were affected by sociodemographic variables, and advanced studies examining mental health literacy are recommended.
