The Content Analysis of the Articles Published Regarding Violence in Pregnancy in Turkey: 2010-2020

Abstract

Aim: The aim of the research was to examine the published articles on violence in pregnancy between 2010-2020 in Turkey. Methods: The research was carried out qualitatively through document analysis. An archive was formed from the articles related to the subject. “Publication Evaluation Guideline” which was developed in line with interpretative approach was used in the review of articles. Descriptive content analysis technique was employed in data analysis. Results: It was identified that the articles, which were reviewed, were mostly quantitative studies and the data collection tools were frequently developed by the authors. It was found that they were done via non-invasive methods in retrospective descriptive or analytical cross-sectional pattern. It was seen that pilot studies were not done to test the data collection tools in the articles and expert opinions were not received. It was identified that the articles mostly dealt with type of violence, individuals committing violence, reactions against violence and coping skills through non-systematic methods. Six main themes and sub-themes consisting of these themes were determined in data analysis. Conclusions and Suggestions: The studies included in the evaluation contain important results that reveal the dimensions of violence during pregnancy. According to the research results, it was seen that violence in pregnancy was a significant problem in Turkey as well as throughout the world. Considering the limited number of interventional and qualitative studies on violence during pregnancy in Turkey, it seems that more studies are needed on this subject. It can be recommended to conduct new researches that take into account cultural differences in studies on the subject.

TÜRKİYE’DE GEBELİKTE ŞİDDET DURUMUYLA İLGİLİ YAYINLANAN MAKALELERİN İÇERİK ANALİZİ: 2010-2020

Abstract

Amaç: Bu araştırmada 2010-2020 yılları arasında Türkiye’de gebelikte şiddet durumuyla ilgili yayınlanan makalelerin incelenmesi amaçlandı. Yöntem: Araştırma doküman incelemesi ile nitel desende gerçekleştirildi. Konuyla ilgili makalelerden bir arşiv oluşturuldu. Ele alınan makalelerin incelenmesinde yorumlayıcı yaklaşım doğrultusunda geliştirilen “Yayın Değerlendirme Kılavuzu” kullanıldı. Analizde betimsel içerik analizi tekniği kullanıldı. Bulgular: Elde edilen veriler doğrultusunda değerlendirilen makalelerin çoğunlukla nicel olup, makalelerde veri toplama araçlarının sıklıkla yazarlar tarafından geliştirildiği belirlendi. Konuyla ilgili yapılan makalelerin çoğunlukla girişimsel olmayan yöntemlerle retrospektif tanımlayıcı ya da analitik kesitsel olarak yapıldığı saptandı. Makalelerde veri toplama araçlarının test edilmesinde pilot uygulamaların yapılmadığı ve uzman görüşü alınmadığı tespit edildi. Çoğunlukla makalelerde sistematik olmayan yöntemlerle şiddet türü, şiddeti uygulayan kişiler, şiddete verilen tepkiler ve baş etme yöntemlerinin ele alındığı saptandı. Veri çözümlemelerinde altı ana tema ve bu temalardan oluşan alt temalar belirlendi. Sonuç ve Öneriler: Değerlendirmeye alınan çalışmalar gebelikte şiddetin boyutlarını ortaya koyan önemli sonuçlar içermektedir. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre, gebelikte şiddetin tüm dünyada olduğu gibi Türkiye'de de önemli bir sorun olduğu görüldü. Türkiye’de, gebelikte şiddet konusunda girişimsel ve nitel çalışmaların kısıtlılığı göz önüne alındığında, bu konuda daha fazla çalışmaya ihtiyaç duyulduğu görülmektedir. Konuya ilişkin yapılacak çalışmalarda kültürel farklılıkları dikkate alan yeni araştırmaların yapılması önerilebilir.
