Bu çalışmanın amacı, ergenlerin psikolojik dayanıklılık düzeyleri ile anksiyete duyarlılığı ve duygu düzenleme becerileri arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir. Ayrıca, ergenlerin deprem deneyimi yaşayıp yaşamama durumlarına göre psikolojik dayanıklılıklarının farklılaşıp farklılaşmadığı araştırılmıştır. Nicel araştırma yaklaşımı benimsenen çalışmada ilişkisel tarama deseni kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemini, yaşları 15–16 arasında değişen 785 lise öğrencisi (434 kız, 351 erkek) oluşturmaktadır. Katılımcıların 356’sı deprem deneyimi yaşamış, 429’u ise yaşamamıştır. Veriler, Çocuk ve Ergenler için Psikolojik Dayanıklılık Ölçeği (CYRM-12), Çocukluk Çağı Anksiyete Duyarlılığı İndeksi (CASI) ve Ergenler için Duygu Düzenleme Ölçeği (REQ) kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Veri analizlerinde korelasyon, çoklu regresyon ve bağımsız örneklemler t-testi uygulanmıştır. Duygu düzenlemenin tüm alt boyutlarının (içsel-işlevsel, içsel-işlevsel olmayan, dışsal-işlevsel ve dışsal-işlevsel olmayan) psikolojik dayanıklılığı anlamlı biçimde yordadığı bulunmuştur. Psikolojik dayanıklılık ile anksiyete duyarlılığının bilişsel boyutu arasında negatif yönde anlamlı bir ilişki saptanmış; ancak psikolojik dayanıklılığın toplam anksiyete duyarlılığını anlamlı düzeyde yordamadığı belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca, deprem deneyimi yaşayan ve yaşamayan ergenlerin psikolojik dayanıklılık düzeyleri arasında anlamlı bir farklılık olmadığı tespit edilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular, ilgili alan yazın çerçevesinde tartışılmıştır.

The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between adolescents’ psychological resilience and their levels of anxiety sensitivity and emotion regulation skills. Additionally, it examined whether psychological resilience differs based on adolescents’ exposure to an earthquake. Employing a quantitative research design, the study used correlational research design. The sample consisted of 785 high school students (434 girls and 351 boys) aged between 15 and 16. Among them, 356 had experienced an earthquake, while 429 had not. Data were collected using the Child and Youth Resilience Measure (CYRM-12), the Childhood Anxiety Sensitivity Index (CASI), and the Regulation of Emotions Questionnaire (REQ) for Adolescents. The analyses included correlation, multiple regression, and independent samples t-tests. All subdimensions of emotion regulation (internal-functional, internal-dysfunctional, external-functional, and external-dysfunctional) significantly predicted psychological resilience. A negative correlation was found between psychological resilience and the cognitive dimension of anxiety sensitivity; however, psychological resilience did not significantly predict overall anxiety sensitivity. Furthermore, no significant difference in psychological resilience was found between adolescents who had experienced an earthquake and those who had not. The results are discussed in the context of existing literature.
