Ebeveynlerin Çocukluk Dönemi Cinsel İstismarına İlişkin Mitleri

Çocukluk dönemi cinsel istismarı çocuğun fiziksel, zihinsel, duygusal ve sosyal yaşamında önemli etkilerbırakabilmektedir. Profesyonel destek alınmadıkça da olumsuz etkiler uzun yıllar sürebilmektedir. Çocuklarınbu dönemlerinde birincil gözlemleyicileri ve sorumluluları ebeveynlerdir. Çocukların sağlıklı ve güvenli birortamda büyümeleri için ebeveynlerinin cinsel istismar konusunda farkındalıklarının yüksek olması ve yeterlibilgiye sahip olmaları gerekmektedir. Aksi takdirde, ebeveynlerde çocukluk dönemi cinsel istismarına yönelikmitlerin var olması çocuklarını istismardan koruma konusunda riskler oluşturabilmektedir. Bu mitlerinebeveynlerin hangi özellikleri ile ilişkili olduğunun belirlenmesi de ebeveyn eğitimi ve istismarı önlemeçalışmalarına yön verecek önemli bir konudur. Buradan hareketle, bu araştırmanın amacı, “cinsiyet, yaş, çocuk sayısı, meslek, gelir düzeyi ve cinsel istismar eğitimi alma durumuna” göre ebeveynlerin çocuklukdönemi cinsel istismarına ilişkin mit düzeylerinin değişip değişmediğini ortaya koymaktır. Bu çalışmakapsamında gönüllü 391 anne (%79.1) ve 103 baba (%20.9) olmak üzere 494 ebeveyne ulaşılmıştır. Araştırmanın verileri Google Form aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Veriler SPSS aracılığıyla analiz edilmiştir.Verilerin analizinde bağımsız örneklemler için t testi ve ikiden fazla grubun karşılaştırması için tek faktörlügruplararası ANOVA testi yapılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgulara göre çocukluk dönemine ilişkin cinsel istismarmitlerinin “cinsiyet, çocuk sayısı ve gelir düzeyi” değişkenlerine göre anlamlı olarak farklılıklar gösterdiği;buna rağmen yaş, meslek ve cinsel eğitim alma durumuna göre değişmediği gözlenmiştir. Araştırmadan eldeedilen sonuçlar ilgili alanyazın ışığında tartışılmış ve araştırmacılar için önerilerde bulunulmuştur.
