Sinematerapinin mükemmeliyetçilik ve mükemmeliyetçilikle ilgili şemalar üzerindeki etkisi

Bu çalışmanın amacı sinematerapinin mükemmeliyetçilik ve mükemmeliyetçilikle ilgili olduğu düşünülen erken dönem uyumsuz şemalar üzerindeki etkisini incelemek ve aynı zamanda katılıcımların seyredilen film ile özdeşleşmelerinin bu sürece olan etkisini değerlendirmektir. Bu amaçla araştırmaya katılan 34 üniversite öğrencisine demografik bilgi formu, Çok Boyutlu Mükemmeliyetçilik Ölçegi (Hewitt ve Flett, 1991a; 1991b), Young Şema Ölçeğinden (Young ve Brown 2001) üç alanda erken dönem uyumsuz şemaları (Aşırı Sorumluluk-Duyguları Bastırma, Acımasız Standartlar-Aşırı Eleştirellik, Onay Arama-Kabul Arama) ölçen sorular ve bu araştırma amacıyla geliştirilmiş olan Film Özdeşleşme Ölçeği seçilen filmi seyretmeden önce, seyrettikten hemen sonra ve on gün sonra olmak üzere toplam üç kez uygulanmıştır. Bu çalışmada yer alan iki gruptan biri sadece seçilen filmi seyretmiş ve ölçekleri doldurmuş, diğer grupsa seçilen filmi seyrettikten sonra ayrıca mükemmeliyetçilikle ilgili bilgilendirme almıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre seçilen filmi seyretmenin katılımcıların mükemmeliyetçilik değerlerini anlamlı olarak etkilediği ortaya çıkmıştır. Ayrıca sinematerapinin mükemmeliyetçilikle ilgili olan erken dönem uyumsuz şemalar üzerinde anlamlı olarak bir etkisinin olmadığı görülmüştür. Şemalar tek başlarına değerlendirildiklerinde ise seçilen filmi seyretmenin Aşırı Sorumluluk-Duyguları Bastırma şeması üzerinde geçici bir etkisi olduğu görülmüştür. Ayrıca bulgular film karakterleriyle özdeşim kurulmadığını göstermiştir.

The effect of cinematherapy on perfectionism and related schemas

This study aimed to reveal the effect of cinematherapy on perfectionism and related early maladaptive schemas and investigate the contribution of participants’ identification with the film on this process. Accordingly, demographic information form, Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (Hewitt & Flett, 1991a; 1991b), three Early Maladaptive Schema (Emotional Inhibition, Unrelenting Standards-Hypercriticalness, Approval Seeking-Recognition Seeking) items from Young Schema Questionnaire (Young & Brown 2001), Film Özdeşleşme Ölçeği, developed for the present purposes, were administered to 34 Turkish university students at pre-, post-, and a 10 days follow-up. One of the two groups in this study only watched the selected film and completed assessment devices and the other group watched the selected film and additionally got a briefing about perfectionism. According to results, watching the selected film had an effect on participant’s perfectionism and no effect on perfectionism related schemas. However, it was found that watching the selected film had a temporary effect on Emotional Inhibition Schema when schemas were analyzed separately. Results also showed that participants did not identify themselves with the film characters.
