Abstract

The aim of this study was to examine the predictive power of protective and authoritarian parental attitudes and traditional gender role perceptions in young adults’ rumination tendencies. The study group consisted of 513 university students, 397 of whom were women and 116 were men, Ruminative Thought Style Questionnaire, Parental Attitude Scale, Socialization of Gender Norms Scale and Demographic Information Form were used as data collection tools in the research. According to the findings, it was found that rumination tendency of women was significantly higher than that of men. Perceived protective and authoritarian parental attitudes and traditional gender role perceptions explained 17% of the variance in rumination tendency in women. On the men, perceived protective parental attitudes and traditional gender role perceptions created significant regression model and explained 10% of the variance in the rumination tendency. The findings were discussed in the light of the related literature and some suggestions were presented on the basis of limitations.

Özet

Bu araştırmanın amacı, koruyucu ve otoriter ebeveyn tutumları ile geleneksel cinsiyet rolü algılarının genç yetişkinlerin ruminasyon eğilimi üzerindeki yordayıcı rollerini incelemektir. Çalışma grubunu, yaşları 18 ve 29 arasında değişen, 397’si kadın ve 116’sı erkek olmak üzere toplam 513 üniversite öğrencisi oluşturmuştur. Veri toplama araçları olarak Ruminatif Düşünce Biçimi Ölçeği, Anne-Baba Tutumları Envanteri, Toplumsal Cinsiyet Oluşumu Ölçeği ve Kişisel Bilgi Formu kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde Pearson Momentler Çarpım Korelasyonu Analizi, t-Testi ve Hiyerarşik Çoklu Doğrusal Regresyon Analizi kullanılmıştır. Bulgulara göre kadınların ruminasyon eğiliminin erkeklere göre anlamlı düzeyde daha yüksek olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır. Kadın örnekleminde, algılanan koruyucu ve otoriter ebeveyn tutumları ile geleneksel toplumsal cinsiyet rolü algıları, ruminasyon eğilimindeki varyansın %17’sini açıklamıştır. Erkek örnekleminde ise algılanan koruyucu ebeveyn tutumları ile geleneksel cinsiyet rolü algıları anlamlı bir regresyon modeli oluşturmuş ve varyansın %10’ununu açıklamıştır. Bulgular ilgili literatür ışığında tartışılmış ve sınırlılıklar temelinde uygulayıcılar ve araştırmacılar için bazı öneriler sunulmuştur.
