İletişim Çalışmaları ve Psikoloji Birlikteliğinin Önemi: COVID-19 Pandemisi Bağlamında Disiplinler Arası Bir Analiz
Deneyimlediğimiz sosyal ve fiziksel koşulların analizi ile bu koşulların etkilerinin değerlendirilmesinde hem iletişim çalışmalarının hem de psikoloji disiplininin önemli bir yeri bulunmaktadır. Bu iki disiplinin etkileşimi iletişim teknolojisinin ilerlemesi ve kullanımının yaygınlaşması ile birlikte daha da gelişim göstermiş, çok boyutlu bir araştırma geleneğini inşa etmiştir. Böyle bir disiplinler arası yaklaşımın bilimsel çalışmalara sağladığı önemli katkılar bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışma, iletişim çalışmaları ve psikoloji birlikteliğinin önemini, bu disiplinler arası yaklaşımın pandeminin öne çıkardığı sorunların olası çözümündeki rolünü ortaya koyarak vurgulamayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu amaçla pandemi sürecinin öne çıkardığı sorunlarla ilgili literatür taranarak bu iki disiplinin birlikteliğine ihtiyaç duyan araştırma alanları ve gelecek çalışmalar için yeni araştırma soruları belirlenmiş ve analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmada bu disiplinler arası yaklaşımın a) dünyanın karşı karşıya kaldığı çevre sorunlarının çözümünü, b) pandemi sürecinin insan psikolojisine etkilerini, c) pandemi sürecinin çevrimiçi mahremiyet ihlali ve gözetim pratiklerine etkisini, d) pandemide sağlıkla ilgili olumlu davranışların geliştirilmesi ile ilgili yaşanan zorlukları ele alırken sağlayacağı önemli bilimsel katkılar olabileceği ortaya konmuştur. Formüle edilen araştırma sorularının gelecek çalışmalara yol göstermesi ve pandemi sürecine olduğu kadar pandemi sonrası sürece de katkıda bulunması umulmaktadır.
The Importance of the Collaboration Between Communication Studies and Psychology: An Interdisciplinary Analysis in the Context of the COVID-19 Pandemic
Communication studies and the discipline of psychology have a major role in the analysis of the social and physical conditions that we experience and in evaluating the effects of these conditions. The interaction of these two disciplines has progressed further with the advancement and widespread use of communication technology and has constituted a multidimensional research tradition. Such an interdisciplinary approach has vital contributions to scientific studies. This study aims to emphasize the importance of the collaboration of communication studies and psychology by revealing the role of this interdisciplinary approach in the possible solution of the problems highlighted by the pandemic. For this purpose, research areas that need the collaboration of these two disciplines and new research questions for future studies have been identified and analysed by scanning the literature on the problems stood out during pandemic. In this study, it has been determined that this interdisciplinary approach can have important scientific contributions while handling a) the solutions of environmental problems faced globally, b) the effects of the pandemic on human psychology, c) the impacts of the pandemic on the breach of online privacy and surveillance practices, and d) the difficulties experienced in the development of positive health behaviours during the pandemic. It is hoped that the formulated research questions can lead the way for future studies and contribute to the post-pandemic period as well as the pandemic period.
