Abstract

Yeme bozukluklarının çok boyutlu modeline göre yeme bozuklukları çok faktörlü psikopatolojilerdir. Buna göre -psikolojik, ailesel olabileceği gibi biyolojik ya da kültürel de olabilen- hazırlayıcı faktörler, yeme bozukluklarının müdahale ve tedavileri açısından önemli bir araştırma alanıdır. Dolayısıyla, bu çalışmanın amacı yeme bozukluğu eğilimlerinin, çocukluk travmaları ve yaşam doyumu ile ilişkisinin incelenmesidir. Kolayda örnekleme metodu uygulanmıştır. Veri toplanması REZZY yeme bozukluğu ölçeği, Çocukluk Çağı Travmaları Ölçeği ve Yaşam Doyumu Ölçeği ile demografik form kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. 289 gönüllü yetişkin katılımcı -kolayda örnekleme ile ulaşılmış olan- ölçekleri yanıtlamıştır (Yaş aralığı=21-49). Katılımcıların %34.3’ünün bildirilmiş olan REZZY yeme bozukluğu risk grubu kesme noktasının üzerinde olduğu saptanmıştır. Analiz bulgularına göre yeme bozukluğu eğilimi olan katılımcılar çocukluk travmaları, duygusal istismar, fiziksel istismar ve cinsel istismar açısından daha yüksek puanlarla farklılaşmıştır. Bulgular bağlantılı literatürün ışığında tartışılmıştır. Bireyin geçmiş travmatik deneyimlerinin psikopatoloji riski açısından önemini vurgulayan literatürün sunulmuş olan araştırmanın bulgularıyla uyum içinde olduğu söylenebilir.

Examination of Relationship of Eating Disorders with Childhood Traumas and Life Satisfaction

Abstract

Abstract:
According to Multidimensional Model of Eating Disorders, eating disorders are multifactorial psychopathologies. Hence, the precipitating factors -which could be psychological and familial beside cultural and biological- are an important area of study regarding intervention and treatment plans of eating disorders. Therefore, the aim of this study have been determined as examination of the relationship of eating disorder tendencies, with childhood traumas and life satisfaction. Convenience sampling method has been applied. Data collection has been conducted via SCOFF (REZZY) eating disorders screening inventory, Traumatic Childhood Experiences Inventory, Life Satisfaction Scale and demographic form. 289 volunteered adult participants -who have been reached via convenience sampling method- answered the scales (Age range = 21-49). The %34.3 of the participants was determined as above the reported REZZY cut-point for eating disorder risk. According to results of the analysis the participants with eating disorder tendencies differed with higher scores regarding childhood traumas, emotional abuse, physical abuse, and sexual abuse scores. Results have been discussed under the light of the related literature. It can be said that the literature that points out the importance of traumatic past experiences regarding psychopathology risks are in accordance with the findings of the presented study.
