This study aims to examine the psychological resilience of caregiver mothers of children aged 0–15 undergoing cancer treatment, in the context of perceived social support and self-compassion. The study was conducted with 40 caregiver mothers who completed the psychological resilience, perceived social support, and self-compassion scales. Correlation and regression analyses revealed that both perceived social support and self-compassion were moderately and positively associated with resilience. Together, these variables explained approximately 45% of the variance in psychological resilience (R² = 0.452, p < 0.001), while self-compassion alone accounted for 26%. Regarding sub-dimensions of social support, only support from family significantly predicted resilience (R² = 0.299, p < 0.05). The findings demonstrate that social support and self-compassion are significant predictors of psychological resilience in caregiver mothers. These results are discussed in relation to the existing literature, and suggestions for future research are provided.

Kanser Tedavisi Gören Çocukların Refakatçi Annelerinin Psikolojik Dayanıklılık Düzeylerinin Algılanan Sosyal Destek ve Öz-Şefkat Bağlamında İncelenmesi

Öz

Bu araştırma, 0–15 yaş arası kanser tedavisi gören çocukların refakatçi annelerinin psikolojik dayanıklılık düzeylerini, algılanan sosyal destek ve öz-şefkat bağlamında incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Çalışma, 40 refakatçi anne ile yürütülmüş; katılımcılara psikolojik dayanıklılık, algılanan sosyal destek ve öz-şefkat ölçekleri uygulanmıştır. Korelasyon ve regresyon analizleri sonucunda, algılanan sosyal destek ve öz-şefkatin psikolojik dayanıklılıkla orta düzeyde pozitif ilişkili olduğu ve bu iki değişkenin birlikte psikolojik dayanıklılıktaki varyansın %45’ini açıkladığı bulunmuştur (R² = 0.452, p < 0.001). Öz-şefkat tek başına %26’lık bir açıklayıcılığa sahiptir. Sosyal desteğin alt boyutları incelendiğinde, yalnızca aile desteği anlamlı bir yordayıcı olarak bulunmuştur (R² = 0.299, p < 0.05). Bulgular, refakatçi annelerin psikolojik dayanıklılığında sosyal destek ve öz-şefkatin önemli belirleyiciler olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu sonuçlar literatür doğrultusunda değerlendirilerek gelecekteki çalışmalara yönelik öneriler sunulmuştur.
