PSİKOLOJİK DANIŞMAN ADAYLARININ ETİK KONUMLARININ BİLİNÇLİ FARKINDALIK DÜZEYLERİ İLE İLİŞKİSİ

Etik konumlar, ahlaki konulardaki etik ikilemlerle yüzleşme ve bunları çözme yoluyla yaşam deneyimleri içerisinde şekillenmekte ve idealizm ile görecelilikten oluşmaktadır. Kültürel bağlamda, Batı kültürleri hem idealizm hem de görecelilik (istisnacılar) konusunda düşük puanlara sahipken, Doğu kültürleri Etik Konum Ölçeğinde hem yüksek idealizm (durumcular) hem de düşük idealizm (öznelciler) puanları ile yüksek görecelilik puanlarına sahiptir. Son zamanlarda, etik klinik uygulamaları ve uygulamayı mümkün kılarken etik karar verme ve farkındalığın bir kombinasyonu etik farkındalık çatısı altında araştırılmaya başlanmıştır. Bu alana adım atmadan önce, bu çalışmada psikolojik danışmanlık öğrencilerinde etik karar verme süreci ve farkındalık arasındaki ilişkinin daha açıklayıcı bir sunumu yapılmıştır. Ön analizlerin sonuçları, katılımcıların yarısının etik karar verme konusunda durumcu tarafta olduğunu göstermiştir. Ana analizler sonucunda, bilinçli farkındalık düzeyinin hem idealizm hem de görecelilikte yüksek puanlarla ilişkili olduğu bulunmuştur.

ETHICAL POSITIONS OF PROSPECTIVE COUNSELORS WITH RELATION TO MINDFULNESS

Ethical positions shape within life experiences via confronting and resolving ethical dilemmas of moral issues, and were consisted of idealism and relativism. Within cultural context, Western cultures had low scores on both idealism and relativism (exceptionists) while Eastern ones had high relativism scores with both high idealism (situationists) and low idealism (subjectivists) scores on Ethical Position Questionnaire. Recently, a combination of ethical decision making and awareness started to be investigated under the roof of ethical mindfulness while enabling ethical clinical practices and implementation. Prior to stepping into that area, more explanatory presentation of the relationship between ethical decision making process and mindfulness among prospective psychological health professionals, psychological counseling students were presented in this descriptive study. Results of preliminary analyses showed that approximately half of the participants (39.85 %) are on the situationist side on ethical decision making. As a result of main analyses, it was found that level of mindfulness is related with high scores on both idealism (Mlow=3.90, Mmiddle=4.02, Mhigh=4.26) and relativism (Mlow=3.34, Mmiddle=3.75, Mhigh=4.08).
