Psikolojik Belirti ve Duygulanımda Özgün Yönelim, Umut ve Canlılığın Rolü: Bir Klinik Örneklem İncelemesi

Psikolojik işleyişin önemli bir göstergesi olan psikolojik belirtiler; özgün yönelim, umut düzeyi, canlılık hissi ve duygulanım ile de yakından ilişkilidir. Buradan hareketle, mevcut çalışmanın amacı, özgün yönelim ile psikolojik belirtiler arasındaki ilişkiyi umut, canlılık, olumlu ve olumsuz duygulanım açısından bir süreç içerisinde incelemektir. Araştırmanın örneklemi, çeşitli psikolojik yakınmaları nedeniyle psikolojik/psikiyatrik bir yardım almakta olan 99 kişiden oluşmaktadır. Örnekleme ait yaş ortalaması 30.96 (SD = 8.06) olup katılımcıların 59’u kadın, 40’ı ise erkektir. Araştırmanın amacı kapsamında; de-mografik bilgi formu, Özgünlük Ölçeği, Umuda Yatkınlık Ölçeği, Öznel Canlılık Ölçeği, Pozitif ve Negatif Duygu Ölçeği ile kısa semptom envanterinden oluşan ölçek seti psikolojik/psikiyatrik yardımı sağlayan uzman tarafından katılımcılara iletilmiştir. Eksik bilgileri nedeniyle çıkarılan 12 kişinin ardından PROCESS makrosu ile yürütülen iki seri aracı analiz so-nuçlarına göre; özgünlük ve psikolojik belirtiler arasındaki ilişki, umut veya olumlu duygu aracılığından etkilenmemektedir. Buna karşın, özgünlük ve psikolojik belirtiler arasındaki ilişki, canlılık veya olumsuz duygu aracılığıyla sürdürülmektedir. İki aracılı dolaylı ilişkilere bakıldığında ise, özgünlük ve buna bağlı olarak umut ve canlılığın yüksek olmasının olumlu duygu durumunu yükselterek psikolojik belirtileri düşürdüğü görülmüştür. Bu süreçte, canlılık aynı zamanda olumsuz duy-gulanımı düşürerek de psikolojik belirtilerdeki düşüşle ilişkiyken umudun olumsuz duygulanım üzerinde anlamlı bir etkisi bulunamamıştır. Elde edilen bulgular, psikolojik belirtilerle ilişkili olabilecek olumlu değişkenlerin incelenmesi; psikolojik sağlamlık için gerekli olan koruyucu faktörlerin belirlenmesi ve müdahale alanına dahil edilebilmesi açısından tartışılmıştır.
