Özet

Varoluşun kaçınılmaz zorlukları bireylerde çeşitli tepkiler ortaya çıkarır. Bunlar arasında bireylerin olumsuz semptomlar geliştirmesi ya da zorluklarla dirençli bir şekilde yüzleşmesi mümkündür. Yalnız kalma konusunda endişeli olan ve duygularını kontrol edemeyen kişiler bu süreçte zorlanabilir. Zorluklara uyum sağlamak ve daha sağlam bir varoluş sürdürmek için bireylerin olumsuz deneyimler karşısında daha dayanıklı olmaları arzu edilir. Çalışma bu bağlamda duygu düzenleme güçlükleri ve yalnız kalma korkusunun dayanıklılık ve olumsuz deneyimler arasındaki aracı rolünü araştırmayı amaçlamıştır. Bu çalışma bu değişkenler arasındaki ilişkileri araştıran ilk çalışmadır. 470 kadın ve 258 erkek yetişkin katılımcı araştırmaya gönüllü olarak katılmıştır. Aracılık analizini gerçekleştirmek için Yapısal Eşitlik Modellemesi (YEM) kullanılmıştır. Bulgular duygu düzenleme güçlüğü ve yalnız kalma korkusunun olumsuz yaşantılar ve psikolojik sağlamlık arasında paralel bir aracılık rolü olduğunu göstermiştir. Modelde olumsuz yaşantılar hem doğrudan hem de duygu düzenleme güçlüğü ve yalnız kalma korkusu dolayısıyla psikolojik sağlamlığı yordamaktadır. Sonuç olarak olumsuzlukların varlığında kişinin duygularını düzenleme becerisinin önemi kabul edilmektedir. Dayanıklılığın olumsuz bir göstergesi yalnız kalma korkusu ve duygu düzenleme güçlüğüdür.

Abstract

The inevitable challenges of existence elicit a variety of responses from individuals. Among these, it is possible for individuals to develop negative symptoms or to confront challenges in a resilient manner. People who are anxious about being single and can't control their emotions may find this process difficult. In order to adapt to challenges and lead a more robust existence, it is desirable for individuals to be more resilient in the face of negative experiences. The study aimed to explore the role of emotion regulation difficulties and fear of being single as mediators between resilience and negative experiences in this context. This study is the first to explore the previously unexplored relationships between these variables. 470 female and 258 male adult participants voluntarily participated in the data collection. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was employed to execute mediation analysis. The findings indicated that there was a parallel mediating role between resilience and negative experiences, in the form of emotion regulation difficulties and fear of being single. The model predicts resilience directly from negative experiences and indirectly from emotion regulation difficulties and fear of being single. Consequently, the significance of one's ability to manage emotions in the presence of negativity is recognized. A negative indicator of resilience is the fear of being single and the difficulty in emotion regulation.
