Abstract

In this study, to determine whether the symptoms of depression, anxiety and stress differ according to the data obtained on the Covid-19 process; It is aimed to determine the mediator role of psychological resilience in the relationship between self-compassion and depression, anxiety and stress levels in the Covid-19 process. 590 people (180 diagnosed with Covid-19, 410 people not diagnosed with Covid-19) between the ages of 25-65 participated in the study. Personal Information Form, Self-Compassion Scale (SCS), Depression-Anxiety-Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) were applied to the participants in the study. According to the data obtained on the Covid-19 process, it was determined that the levels of depression, anxiety and stress differed statistically significantly. Furthermore, the research pointed out that psychological resilience plays an intermediary role on the relationship between self-compassion level and the depression, anxiety levels; however, there is no intermediary role of psychological resilience in the relationship between self-compassion level and stress level. Although our research has various limitations, our findings indicate that the concepts of self-compassion and resilience play a protective role against the psychological symptoms caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, which is now considered a ' challenging life event'.

Özet

Bu araştırmada Covid-19 sürecine dair elde edilen verilere göre depresyon, anksiyete, stres belirtilerinin farklılaşıp farklılaşmadığını saptamak; Covid-19 sürecinde öz duyarlık ile depresyon, anksiyete, stres düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkide psikolojik sağlamlığın aracı rolünü belirlemek amaçlanmaktadır. Araştırmaya 25-65 yaş aralığında 590 kişi (Covid-19 tanısı alan 180, Covid-19 tanısı almayan 410 kişi) katılmıştır. Araştırmada katılımcılara Kişisel Bilgi Formu, Öz-Duyarlık Ölçeği (ÖDÖ), Depresyon- Anksiyete- Stres Ölçeği -21 (DASÖ-21) ve Connor - Davidson Psikolojik Sağlamlık Ölçeği (CD-RISC) uygulanmıştır. Covid-19 sürecine dair elde edilen verilere göre depresyon, anksiyete ve stres düzeylerinin istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir şekilde farklılaştığı saptanmıştır. Ayrıca psikolojik sağlamlığın, öz duyarlık düzeyi ile depresyon ve anksiyete düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkide aracı bir rol oynadığı; öz duyarlık düzeyi ile stres düzeyi arasındaki ilişkide ise aracı bir rolünün bulunmadığı görülmüştür. Araştırmamızın çeşitli kısıtlılıkları bulunmakla beraber bulgularımız, günümüzde ‘zorlayıcı yaşam olayı’ olarak kabul gören Covid-19 pandemisinin yol açtığı psikolojik belirtiler karşısında öz duyarlık ve psikolojik sağlamlık kavramlarının koruyucu bir rol oynadığına işaret etmektedir.
