DİN, MANEVİYAT VE DEPRESYON: TETKİK VE TEDAVİ İÇİN ÖNERİLER

Psikiyatrik araştırma ve uygulamalarda din ve maneviyata son zamanlarda bir alaka olmuştur. Bu araştırma, psikiyatrik araştırmalarda dinî / manevî değişkenleri inceleyerek ilgili problemleri ana hatlarıyla belirledikten sonra, depresyon ve dindarlığın çeşitli ölçümleri arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektedir. Araştırmada, Medline, PsyINFO ve PubMed veritabanları kullanılarak 1996’dan 2006’ya kadar din ve depresyon üzerine yayınlanmış literatürü içeren veri tabanlarının bir incelemesi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu literatür, dindar olanların daha düşük seviyede depresif semptomlara ve depresyon sıklığına sahip olduklarını ve dinin depresyondan iyileşme hızını arttırdığını ortaya koymaktadır. Bu koruyucu etkinin psikotik depresyondaki payı daha az belirgindir.Bu değerlendirme yazısı, gelecekteki araştırmalar için potansiyel alanlara ve klinik önerilere değinerek sona ermektedir.

Anahtar Kelimeler:
