Year 2024, Volume: 8 Issue: 3, 256 - 264, 30.12.2024

Abstract

Amaç: Obezite çağın önemli sorunlarından biridir. Bu makalede Konya ilinde obezite ile yaşayan bireylerin deneyimlerinin, obezite ile
baş etme çabalarının ve alana yönelik önerilerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu nitel bir çalışmadır. Mayıs Temmuz 2022 Araştırma verileri derinlemesine bireysel yüz yüze görüşmeler
yoluyla toplanmıştır. Geleneksel nitel veri analizi ve Colaizzi'nin fenomenolojik yorumlama yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Bu çalışma, Nitel
Araştırmaların Raporlanması için Konsolide Kriterler (COREQ) kılavuzuna uygun olarak raporlanmıştır. Katılımcılar obezite hastası
bireylerdir.
Bulgular ve Sonuç: Örneklem 12 kişiden oluşmaktadır. Bireylerin yaş ortalaması 56,58±7,07 yıl, beden kütle indeksi (BKİ) 48,69±10,41
ve çoğunluğu (%83,3) kadındır. Bireylerin deneyimleri 14 kategori ve beş tema olmak üzere toplam 370 kod altında toplanmıştır.
Obeziteye sahip bireylerin fiziksel, psikolojik sorunları ve damgalanma gibi olumsuz deneyimleri olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Çevresel
düzenlemeler ve sağlık personelinin farkındalığının artırılması obez bireylerin yaşadığı dezavantajları azaltabilir.

A Qualitative Study on Individuals with Obesity: What do They Experience? How do They Feel? What are Their Expectations?

Year 2024, Volume: 8 Issue: 3, 256 - 264, 30.12.2024
https://doi.org/10.25048/tudod.1512661

Abstract

Aim: Obesity is one of the important problems of the age. In this article, it was aimed to determine the experiences of individuals living
with obesity in Konya province, their efforts to cope with obesity and their suggestions for the field.
Material and Methods: This is a qualitative study. May July 2022 Research data were collected through in-depth individual face-toface
interviews. Traditional qualitative data analysis and Colaizzi's phenomenological interpretation method were used. This study was
reported in accordance with the Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research (COREQ) guidelines. The participants were
individuals with obesity.
Results and Conclusion: The sample consisted of 12 people. The average age of the individuals was 56.58±7.07 years, body mass index
(BMI) was 48.69±10.41 and the majority (83.3%) were women. The experiences of individuals were collected under a total of 370 codes,
including 14 categories and five themes. It has been determined that individuals with obesity have physical, psychological problems
and negative experiences such as stigma. Environmental regulations and raising the awareness of health personnel can reduce the
disadvantages experienced by obese individuals.
