Özet

Bu araştırmanın amacı, üniversite öğrencilerinde öz-kontrolün depresyon düzeyleri ile bilinçli farkındalık arasındaki ilişkide aracılık rolünü ortaya koymaktır. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu 2015-2016 öğretim yılında Anadolu Üniversitesi'nin çeşitli örgün programlarına devam eden toplam 808 üniversite öğrencisi oluşturmuştur. Araştırmanın verileri "Beck Depresyon Ölçeği", "Bilinçli Farkındalık Ölçeği", "Kısa Öz-Kontrol Ölçeği" ile toplanmıştır. Aracılık testi bulgularına göre; bilinçli farkındalık ile depresyon arasındaki ilişkide öz-kontrolün aracılık etkisinin istatistiki açıdan önemli olduğu bulunmuştur. Buna göre, bilinçli farkındalık öz-kontrol aracılığıyla depresyonu negatif yönde yordamaktadır. Bilinçli farkındalığı yüksek üniversite öğrencilerinin öz-kontrol düzeyleri de yüksek olmakta ve bunun sonucu olarak depresyon düzeyleri daha düşük olmaktadır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre, bilinçli farkındalık yüksek öz-kontrol ve daha düşük depresyon ile ilişkili olduğu gözlenmiştir
