Abstract

Objective: This study was conducted to determine the levels of self-compassion, psychological well-being and self-esteem in patients with depression and anxiety disorders and the relationship between them. Methods: 100 depression, 100 anxiety disorder patients who applied to XXXX Psychiatry outpatient clinic and agreed to participate in the study voluntarily and 100 healthy controls were included in the study. Sociodemographic data form, Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Psychological Well-Being Scale (PWBS), Self-Compassion Scale (SCS) and Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) were applied to the participants. Results: According to the findings of the scales applied to all groups, there was a statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of well-being, self-esteem, and self-understanding (p<0.001). The distribution of median values (m(Q1-Q3)) of self-understanding levels by groups is as follows; depression group (60(48-72)), anxiety disorders group (71(58-84)) and healthy control group (93(88-97)). In the Pearson correlation analysis, it was determined that self-compassion showed the strongest correlation with self-esteem in the depression group (r=0.594, p<0.001). Conclusions: As a result, it has been determined that it is critical to bring self-compassion to the forefront of the strong correlations this demonstrates with psychological well-being and self-esteem in depression and anxiety disorders accompanied by depressive symptoms.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışma depresyon ve anksiyete bozuklukları hastalarında özanlayış, psikolojik iyi oluş ve benlik saygısı düzeylerini tespit etmek ve aralarındaki ilişkiyi belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: XXXX Üniversitesi Psikiyatri polikliniğine ayaktan başvuran ve çalışmaya gönüllü olarak katılmayı kabul eden 100 depresyon, 100 anksiyete bozukluğu hastası ile 100 sağlıklı kontrol çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Katılımcılara sosyodemografik veri formu, Beck Anksiyete Ölçeği (BAÖ), Beck Depresyon Ölçeği (BDÖ), Psikolojik İyi Oluş Ölçeği (PİOÖ), Öz Anlayış Ölçeği (ÖZAN) ve Rosenberg Benlik Saygısı Ölçeği (RBSÖ) uygulanmıştır. Bulgular: Tüm gruplara uygulanan ölçeklerin analiz sonucuna göre iyi oluş, benlik saygısı ve öz anlayış düzeylerinin gruplar arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılığa sahip olduğu belirlendi (p<0.001). Öz anlayış düzeylerinin median değerlerinin (m(Q1-Q3)) gruplara göre dağılımı şu şekildedir; depresyon grubu (60(48-72)), anksiyete bozuklukları grubu (71(58-84)) ve sağlıklı kontrol grubu (93(88-97)). Pearson korelasyon analizinde öz anlayışın en güçlü korelasyonu depresyon grubundaki benlik saygısı ile gösterdiği tespit edildi (r=0.594, p<0.001). Sonuç: Sonuç olarak öz anlayışın depresyonda ve depresif semptomların eşlik ettiği anksiyete bozukluklarında psikolojik iyi oluş ve benlik saygısı ile gösterdiği güçlü korelasyonlardan dolayı ön plana alınmasının önemli olduğu görülmüştür.
