Bu araştırmanın amacı, özel eğitimsel gereksinimleri olan çocukların annelerinde, aile stresi ve öz-şefkatin ebeveyn öz-yeterliliği üzerindeki yordayıcı etkisini incelemektir. Çalışmanın örneklemi, Sağlık Bakanlığı tarafından onaylanmış sağlık kurulu kararına göre özel eğitim hizmeti gereksinimi olduğuna yönelik resmi tanısı bulunan 202 çocuğun annesinden oluşmaktadır. Veri toplama araçları; demografik bilgi formu, Öz-Şefkat Ölçeği, Aile Stresi Değerlendirme Ölçeği ve Ebeveyn Öz-Yeterliliği Ölçeklerini içermektedir.
İstatistiksel işlemler Pearson Çarpım-Moment Korelasyonu ve Çok Değişkenli Çoklu Regresyon analizleri uygulamalarını içermektedir. Sonuçlar öz-şefkat, aile stresi ve gelir düzeyinin ebeveyn öz-yeterliliğinin belirgin yordayıcıları olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Bu çalışmanın sonuçlarının kanıt temelli uygulamalar, müdahale yöntemlerinin tasarlanması ve politika geliştirme ve böylece özel gereksinimli bir çocuğu yetiştirmenin güçlükleriyle mücadele eden annelerin ebeveyn yeterliliklerini destekleme açısından çok önemli yansımaları olduğu düşünülmektedir.

Examining Self-Compassion and Family Stress as Predictors of Parental Self-Efficacy in Mothers of Children with Special Needs

Öz

This study examines the predictive effect of family stress and self-compassion on the self-efficacy of mothers with children who have been officially diagnosed as requiring special educational needs. The study sample consists of 202 mothers whose children have been officially diagnosed as requiring special educational services, as approved by the Ministry of Health and a health board. Data were collected using a demographic information form and the following scales: the Self-Compassion Scale, the Family Stress Assessment Scale and the Parental Self-Efficacy Scale. Statistical procedures include Pearson product-moment correlation and multivariate multiple regression analysis applications. The results revealed that self-compassion, family stress and income level are significant predictors of parental self-efficacy. The results of this study are believed to have important implications for evidence-based practices, the design of intervention methods and policy development. They support the parenting competence of mothers who are struggling with the challenges of raising a child with special needs.
