Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, bireylerin olumlu çocukluk yaşantıları, mutluluk algıları ve psikolojik sağlamlık düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkilerin incelenmesidir. Çalışmaya 968 (646 kadın / 322 erkek) kişi katılmıştır. Araştırmada veri toplama araçları olarak Olumlu Çocukluk Yaşantıları Ölçeği, Connor-Davidson Psikolojik Sağlamlık Ölçeği, Kısa Psikolojik Sağlamlık Ölçeği ve demografik bilgi formu kullanılmıştır. Analizler sonucu olumlu çocukluk yaşantılarının psikolojik sağlamlığı pozitif yönde ve anlamlı düzeyde yordadığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Bulgular psikolojik sağlamlık ve olumlu çocukluk yaşantılarının cinsiyete göre anlamlı düzeyde farklılık gösterdiğini ortaya koymuştur. Ayrıca katılımcıların mutluluk algılarına göre psikolojik sağlamlık puanlarında da anlamlı düzeyde farklılıklar olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlar, çocukluk dönemindeki olumlu yaşantıların önemini ve yetişkin ruh sağlığını anlamada aydınlatıcı olacaktır.
