McMASTER AİLE İŞLEVLERİ MODELİ VE GÖMLEĞİ YIRTIK KIRMIZI GÜL ÖYKÜSÜ’ NÜN McMASTER MODELİ TEMELİNDE İNCELENMESİ

Aile terapisi ve aile işlevselliği konularına olan ilgi son yıllarda artmıştır. Ailenin işlevselliğinin bireyin ve toplumun sağlığı ve işlevselliği için önemli bir değişken olduğunun fark edilmesi, araştırmacıların bu konuya olan ilgilerini arttırmıştır. Aileyle yapılan çalışmalarda, birçok kuram ve yaklaşımların model ve paradigmaları olduğu görülmektedir. Bu yaklaşımlardan biri de McMaster Aile İşlevleri Modeli’ dir. Sistem Kuramı’ na dayanan bu model, ailenin işlevselliğini altı boyutta değerlendirmekte ve aileyi her boyuta göre sağlıklı ya da sağlıksız olarak sınıflandırmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın da amacı psikolojik okuma ve tahlil yöntemi çerçevesinde, öykü yazarı Hüseyin Su’ nun “Gömleği Yırtık Kırmızı Gül” isimli öyküsünü, McMaster Aile İşlevleri Modeli temelinde incelemek ve öyküye konu olan ailenin işlevsel olup olmadığını bu modelin boyutları temelinde değerlendirmektir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda, öykünün analizinde nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden doküman analizi yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonucuna göre, öyküye konu olan ailenin işlevselliğinin zayıf olduğu anlaşılmıştır. Buna göre, ailede problem çözme yönteminin ve aile üyelerinin birbirlerine yönelik ilgililerinin zayıf olduğu, ailede rol paylaşımının etkisiz ve aile üyelerinin davranış kontrol ve duygusal tepkilerinin işlevsel olmadığı anlaşılmıştır. Sonuç olarak bu çalışmanın McMaster Aile İşlevleri Modeli’ nin kuramsal temellerinin anlaşılmasına destek olacağı, ayrıca edebiyat ve psikoloji bilimi çerçevesinde, aile terapisi alanında çalışan uzmanlar için bir kaynak oluşturacağı düşünülmektedir.
