In current study,
the predictive role of perfectionism and trust in romantic relationships in the
relation satisfaction of college students was investigated. The participants
were 325 college students who have had a romantic relationship. Data was
collected by Relationship Assessment Scale, Perfectionism in Romantic Relations
Scale, Dyadic Trust Scale and a questionnaire. Data was analyzed by mean,
Pearson Correlation and multiple lineer regression analysis. According to the
results, there was positive relationship between relationship satisfaction,
self-oriented perfectionism and dyadic trust; while there was negative
relationship between relationship satisfaction and other oriented perfectionism.
According to the results of multiple linear regression analysis; self-oriented
perfectionism, other-oriented perfectionism and dyadic trust accounted for
33.3% of the change in the relationship satisfaction level. The increase in the
self-oriented perfectionism and dyadic trust contribute to the increase in the
level of relationship satisfaction; while the increase in other-oriented
perfectionism leads to the decrease in the level of relationship satisfaction.
The findings are discussed in the light of relevant literature and suggestions
are presented.

İlişki Doyumunun Mükemmeliyetçilik ve Güven Aracılığıyla Yordanması

Öz

Bu
araştırmada üniversite öğrencilerinin romantik ilişkilerde mükemmeliyetçilik ve
güven düzeyinin ilişki doyum düzeyini yordayıcı rolü incelenmiştir.
Araştırmanın katılımcılarını hali hazırda romantik bir ilişki içinde olan 325 üniversite
öğrencisi oluşturmuştur. Veriler İlişki Doyum Ölçeği, Romantik İlişkilerde
Mükemmeliyetçilik Ölçeği, İkili İlişkilerde Güven Ölçeği ve kişisel bilgi formu
aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Analizlerde aritmetik ortalama, Pearson korelasyonu
ve çoklu doğrusal regresyon analizi teknikleri kullanılmıştır. Bulgulara göre,
ilişki doyumu ile kendine yönelik mükemmeliyetçilik ve ikili ilişkilerde güven
arasında pozitif yönde; diğerlerine yönelik mükemmeliyetçilik arasında ise
negatif yönde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı düzeyde ilişki vardır. Çoklu
doğrusal regresyon analizi sonuçlarına göre; kendine yönelik mükemmeliyetçilik,
diğerlerine yönelik mükemmeliyetçilik ve ikili ilişkilerde güven ilişki doyum
düzeyindeki değişimin %33.3’ünü açıklamaktadır. Kendine yönelik
mükemmeliyetçilik ve ikili ilişkilerde güven düzeyinde meydana gelen artış
ilişki doyum düzeyinin artmasına katkı sağlarken; diğerlerine yönelik
mükemmeliyetçilik düzeyinde meydana gelen artış ilişki doyum düzeyinin
azalmasına yol açmaktadır. Elde edilen bulgular ilgili literatür ışığında
tartışılarak öneriler sunulmuştur.
