Amaç: Adölesan dönem pekçok alanda olduğu gibi fiziksel ve cinsel değişimlerinde hız kazanmasına ek olarak toplumsal normlarında içselleştirildiği bir dönem olmasına rağmen cinsel tutum ve dindarlığa ilişkin sonuçlar tutarsız iken, cinsiyetçilikle ilgili çalışmalar sınırlıdır. Bu araştırmanın amacı, geç ergenlik dönemindeki kadınlarda dindarlığın içselleştirilmiş cinsiyetçilik ve cinsel tutumlar üzerindeki etkisini belirlemektir.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışma geç dönem ergen kadınlarda dindarlığın içselleştirilmiş cinsiyetçilik ve cinsel tutumlar üzerine etkisini belirlemek amacıyla Türkiye’de yürütülmüştür. Çalışmanın örneklemini 18-25 yaş arası 670 kadın ergen oluşturmuştur.
Bulgular: Geç dönem adölesan kadınlarda dindarlık, cinsel tutum ve içselleştirilmiş cinsiyetçiliği direkt etkilemektedir. Ayrıca dindarlık ile cinsel tutumlar arasındaki ilişkide içselleştirilmiş cinsiyetçilik aracı role sahiptir.
Sonuç: Doğru kaynaklardan edinilen din bilgisinin uygun yorumlanması ile kadın ergenlerin cinsiyetçiliğe ve cinselliğe yönelik tutumlarını olumlu etkilediği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Bu bağlamda sağlık profesyonellerinin ergenlere yönelik multidisipliner ekiple birlikte çalışmalar yapmalarının riskli cinsel davranışlara karşı koruyucu etkisinin olacağı varsayılmaktadır.

Religiosity, internalized sexism, and sexual attitudes in late female adolescents: A structural equality modeling

Öz

Aim: Adolescence is a period marked by rapid physical and sexual changes, as well as the internalization of societal norms. However, while studies on sexual attitudes and religiosity yield inconsistent results, research on sexism remains limited. This study aims to examine the impact of religiosity on internalized sexism and sexual attitudes in late-adolescent women.
Materials and Methods: Conducted in Turkey, this study explores the effects of religiosity on internalized sexism and sexual attitudes among late-adolescent women. The sample consists of 670 women aged 18-25 years.
Results: Religiosity directly influences sexual attitudes and internalized sexism in late-adolescent women. Moreover, internalized sexism plays a mediating role in the relationship between religiosity and sexual attitudes.
Conclusion: Appropriately interpreting religious knowledge acquired from reliable sources positively influences adolescent women's attitudes toward sexism and sexuality. In this context, multidisciplinary collaborations among healthcare professionals are assumed to have a protective effect against risky sexual behaviors.
