Abstract

This study aims to examine the extent to which university applicants’ irrational beliefs in romantic relationships and cyberbullying perpetration levels predict negative and withdrawal conflict resolution styles in romantic relationships. The study sample consists of a total of 576 prospective university students (334 females and 242 males) preparing for the Higher Education Institutions Exam (YKS) in 2025. Data were gathered using the Irrational Romantic Relationship Beliefs Inventory (IRRBI), the Revised Cyber Bullying Inventory (RCBI-II), and the Conflict Resolution Styles Scale in Romantic Relationships (CRSS). Data were analyzed using SPSS and AMOS software via correlation and Path Analysis. Given the findings, irrational beliefs in romantic relationships and cyberbullying perpetration positively and significantly predicted the negative conflict resolution style. Although cyberbullying perpetration negatively and significantly predicted the withdrawal style, irrational beliefs had no significant predictive role in the withdrawal style. The findings were discussed considering the literature, and concrete recommendations, including psychoeducational intervention programs aiming to enhance relational awareness and constructive conflict resolution skills, were presented for mental health professionals and practitioners working with university candidates.

Özet

Bu araştırmanın amacı, üniversite adaylarının romantik ilişkilerde akılcı olmayan inançları ile siber zorbalık yapma düzeylerinin romantik ilişkilerde olumsuz çatışma çözme ve geri çekilme çatışma çözme stillerini yordama düzeylerini incelemektir. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu, 2025 yılında Yükseköğretim Kurumları Sınavına (YKS) girecek olan 334 kız ve 242 erkek olmak üzere toplam 576 üniversite öğrencisi adayı oluşturmaktadır. Araştırma verileri; Romantik İlişkilerde Akılcı Olmayan İnançlar Ölçeği (RAİNÖ), Yenilenmiş Siber Zorbalık Envanteri (RCBI-II) ve Romantik İlişkilerde Çatışma Çözüm Stilleri Ölçeği (ÇÇSÖ) aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde SPSS ve AMOS programları kullanılarak korelasyon ve Yol Analizi (Path Analysis) yapılmıştır. Analiz sonuçlarına göre; romantik ilişkilerde akılcı olmayan inançlar ve siber zorbalık yapma düzeyi olumsuz çatışma çözme stilini pozitif yönde ve anlamlı düzeyde yordamaktadır. Siber zorbalık yapma düzeyi geri çekilme çatışma çözme stilini negatif yönde anlamlı şekilde yordarken, akılcı olmayan inançların geri çekilme stili üzerinde anlamlı bir yordayıcı rolünün bulunmadığı tespit edilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular literatür ışığında tartışılarak, üniversiteye hazırlık sürecindeki gençlerin ilişkisel farkındalıklarını ve yapıcı çatışma çözme becerilerini artırmaya yönelik psikoeğitim programları ile ruh sağlığı uzmanlarına yönelik somut öneriler sunulmuştur.
