Covid-19 Pandemi Sürecinde Genişletilmiş Benlik Teorisi Perspektifinden Bireylerin Sahiplik Kayıpları

Amaç – Çalışmada, genişletilmiş benlik teorisi bağlamında Covid-19 Pandemi sürecinde hastalığı geçiren bireylerin maddi ve manevi olarak ne tür kayıplar yaşadıklarının ortaya konulması amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem – Bu çalışmada nitel araştırma tekniği kullanılmıştır. Yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formuyla Covid-19 geçiren 11 kişi ile derinlemesine görüşmeler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışmada görüşülen kişilerin belirlenmesinde kartopu ve maksimum çeşitlilikten yararlanılmıştır. Görüşmeler etik kurallar çerçevesinde görüşmecilerin izni ile kayıt altına alınmıştır. Bu yolla toplanan veriler geleneksel içerik analizi ile çözümlenmiştir. Ayrıca NVivo 12 programı kullanılarak kelime bulutu analizi yapılmıştır. Bulgular – Yapılan analize göre psikolojik süreçler, korku, bedensel sorunlar, ekonomik kayıplar, tedavi süreci, pandemi yönetimi ve aşıya karşı bakış açısı olmak üzere yedi tema ve bu temalara ait 38 kategori elde edilmiştir. Kelime bulutu analizine göre en çok kullanılan kelimelerin hastalık, Covid, ilaç, etki ve aşı olduğu belirlenmiştir. Araştırmanın sonucunda görüşmecilerin pandemi döneminde daha önce sahip olmadıkları korkulara sahip oldukları, özellikle hijyen konusunda takıntı geliştirdikleri, tat ve koku kaybı ile ilgili endişe düzeylerinin arttığı belirlenmiştir. Aynı zamanda bazı görüşmecilerin bu süreçte ekonomik kayıplardan da etkilendiği görülmüştür. Bireylerin pandemi sürecinde Covid-19 aşısına yönelik olumlu tutumlar sergiledikleri tespit edilmiştir. Tartışma – Araştırmanın sonuçları ilgili alan yazını incelendiğinde diğer çalışmalar ile benzerlik göstermektedir. Pandemi sürecinde sahiplik kaybı korkusunun yüksek olduğu, bu durumun bireylerin benliklerine zarar verdiği ve zincirleme olarak toplum sağlığının da olumsuz etkilendiği belirlenmiştir.

Purpose – In the study, it is aimed to reveal what kind of material and moral losses experienced by individuals who had the disease during the Covid-19 Pandemic process in the context of extended self theory. Design/methodology/approach – Qualitative research technique was used in this study. In-depth interviews were conducted with 11 people who had Covid-19 with a semi-structured interview form. Snowball and maximum diversity were used to determine the interviewees in the study. The interviews were recorded with the permission of the interviewees within the framework of ethical rules. The data collected in this way was analyzed by traditional content analysis. In addition, word cloud analysis was performed using the NVivo 12 program. Findings – According to the analysis, seven themes and 38 categories belonging to these themes were obtained, including psychological processes, fear, physical problems, economic losses, treatment process, pandemic management and perspective against vaccines. According to the word cloud analysis, it was determined that the most used words were disease, Covid, drug, effect and vaccine. As a result of the research, it was determined that the interviewees had fears that they did not have before during the pandemic period, they developed an obsession about hygiene, and their anxiety levels about loss of taste and smell increased. At the same time, it was observed that some of the interviewees were also affected by the economic losses in this process. It has been determined that individuals exhibit positive attitudes towards the Covid-19 vaccine during the pandemic process. Disccussions – The results of the research show similarities with other studies when the related literature is examined. It has been determined that the fear of loss of possession is high during the pandemic process, this situation harms the selves of individuals and public health is negatively affected as a chain.
