Abstract

Bu çalışma sağlıklı popülasyonda yer alan yetişkin bireylerde kişilerarası sorunların yordayıcılığında çocukluk çağı travmaları, duygu düzenleme güçlüğü ve psikolojik sağlamlığın araştırılması amacıyla yürütülmüştür. 18-60 yaş arasında, 313 kadın ve 110 erkek olmak üzere toplam 423 katılımcının oluşturuduğu örneklem grubunun verileri Çocukluk Çağı Travmaları Ölçeği (ÇÇTÖ-33), Kişilerarası Problemler Envanteri (KPE), Duygu Düzenleme Güçlüğü Ölçeği- Kısa Form (DDGÖ-16), Kısa Psikolojik Sağlamlık Ölçeği (KPSÖ) ve Sosyodemografik Veri Formu kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Değişkenlerin yordayıcılığı çoklu regresyon ve basit regresyon analizleri kullanılarak yapılmıştır. Analiz sonuçlarına göre kişilerarası sorunların yordayıcılığında çocukluk çağı travmaları varyansın %20.9’unu, duygu düzenleme güçlüğü varyansın %39’unu ve psikolojik sağlamlık varyansın %01.0’nı açıklamaktadır. Kişilerararsı sorunların yordayıcılığında çocukluk çağı travmaları sırası ile duygusal istismar, duygusal ihmal, cinsel istismar, fiziksel ihmal; duygu düzenleme güçlüğü alt boyutları ise sırasıyla açıklık, kabul etmeme, stratejiler şeklinde sıralanmaktadır. Araştırmanın bulguları klinik çalışmalarda terapötik sürece ek olarak sağlıklı popülasyonda yürütülecek psikoeğitimlere ve sağlık politikalarına katkı sunacaktır.

The predictors of the variables were made using multiple regression and simple regression analysis. According to the results of the analysis, childhood traumas explained 20.9% of the variance, difficulty in emotion regulation explained 39% of the variance, and resilience 01.0% of the variance in the predictor of interpersonal problems. In the predictor of interpersonal problems, childhood traumas were emotional abuse, emotional neglect, sexual abuse, and physical neglect, respectively; The sub-dimensions of difficulty in emotion regulation are listed as openness, refusal, and strategies, respectively.
