Evli ve Çalışan Bireylerde Evlilik Doyumu ve İş Tatmini: Duygusal Şiddetin Rolü

Abstract

Bu çalışma, evli ve çalışan bireyler arasında evlilik doyumu, iş tatmini ve duygusal şiddete maruz kalma arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektedir. Toplamda 279 katılımcı basit rastgele örnekleme yöntemiyle seçilmiştir. Veriler, Evlilik Doyum Ölçeği, İş Tatmin Ölçeği ve Duygusal Şiddete Maruz Kalma Ölçeği aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Bulgular, duygusal şiddetin hem evlilik doyumunu hem de iş tatminini anlamlı şekilde düşürdüğünü, evlilik doyumunun ise iş tatmini ile pozitif yönde ilişkili olduğunu göstermiştir. Cinsiyete göre farklılıklar da gözlenmiş; erkekler daha yüksek düzeyde duygusal şiddete maruz kaldıklarını ve cinsel tatminlerinin daha yüksek olduğunu bildirmiştir. Ayrıca, daha yüksek eğitim ve gelire sahip bireylerin iş tatmin düzeylerinin anlamlı düzeyde daha yüksek olduğu görülmüştür. Çalışma, duygusal şiddetin hem evlilik hem de iş yaşamı üzerindeki olumsuz etkilerini vurgulamakta ve önleyici ve terapötik müdahalelerin önemini ortaya koymaktadır.

Marital Satisfaction and Job Satisfaction Among Married and Employed Individuals: The Role Of Emotional Abuse

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between marital satisfaction, job satisfaction, and exposure to emotional abuse among married and employed individuals. A total of 279 participants were recruited using simple random sampling. Data were collected through the Marital Satisfaction Scale, Job Satisfaction Scale, and Emotional Abuse Exposure Scale. Findings revealed that emotional abuse significantly predicted lower marital satisfaction and job satisfaction, while marital satisfaction was positively correlated with job satisfaction. Gender differences emerged, with men reporting higher exposure to emotional abuse and higher sexual satisfaction. Furthermore, individuals with higher levels of education and income reported significantly greater job satisfaction. The study highlights the detrimental effects of emotional abuse on both marital and occupational well-being, underscoring the importance of preventive and therapeutic interventions.
