Bu araştırmada, obsesif kompulsif bozuklukta bağlanmanın, obsesif inançların ve duygu düzenleme zorluklarının etkisinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda toplam 224 klinik olmayan örneklem ve 101 klinik örneklem katılımcı araştırmadaki değişkenlerle ilgili ölçüm araçlarını doldurmuştur. Araştırmada bağlanmayı değerlendirmek için YİYE-II, obsesif inançları değerlendirmek için Obsesif İnançlar Ölçeği ve duygu düzenleme becerilerini değerlendirmek için Duygu Düzenlemede Zorluklar Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Bağımsız örneklemler için t-test analizleri yürütülmüştür. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre; klinik grupta bağlanma açısından kaygı özelliklerinde anlamlı farklılık bulunurken, kaçınma özelliklerinde iki grup arasında anlamlı farklılık gözlenmemiştir. Obsesif inançlar açısından da klinik örneklemin kesinlik ihtiyaçları, mükemmeliyetçilik ve sorumluluk inançları, tehdit algıları, düşünceye ve kontrole verdikleri önem düzeyi klinik olmayan örneklemden daha yüksek olduğu bulunmuştur. Duygu düzenleme açısından ise her iki grup arasında duygusal farkındalık ve duygusal netlik düzeyleri açısından anlamlı fark bulunamamıştır. Diğer taraftan klinik ve klinik olmayan grup arasında duygusal tepkiyi kabul etmeme, duygusal sıkıntı yaşadığında amaç yönelimli davranışları sürdürememe, duygusal sıkıntı yaşadığında dürtü kontrolünde zorlanma, genel olarak duygu düzenleme stratejilerine sınırlı geçit verme açısından ise iki grup arasında anlamlı farklılıklar olduğu görülmüştür. Söz konusu duygu düzenleme zorlukları düzeylerinin klinik grupta klinik olmayan gruba göre daha yüksek olduğu görülmüştür. Bulgular ilgili literatür ışığında tartışılmış, sonuçlara dayalı olarak alan için önerilere yer verilmiştir.
Abstract
The present study aimed at investigating the differences between nonclinical sample and clinical sample (OCD patients) in attachment, obsessive beliefs and emotion regulation in Turkish sample. For these purposes 224 non clinical participants and 101 clinical OCD participants completed questionnaires related to research variables. Experience in Close Relationship Scale to evaluate attachment, Obsessive Belief Questionnaire to evaluate obsessive beliefs and Difficulties of Emotion Regulation Scale to evaluate emotion regulation abilities were used in this study. A series of t-test for independent samples analyses were done. Findings of the analyses revealed that there was significant differences between two groups in anxiety level of attachment, but not in avoidance level. Also there were significant differences between two groups in all obsessive beliefs subscales such as responsibility and threat perception, perfectionism and need of certainty, the importance of thoughts and control. From emotional regulation perspective there were significant differences in non-acceptance of emotional response, difficulties in engaging goal-directed behavior, impulse control difficulties during emotional distress, limited access to emotional regulation strategies. However there was not significant differences between two groups in clarity about emotions and awareness of emotional arousal. To sum up according to results of this study attachment and obsessive beliefs follow the same pattern with the results in the literature. Moreover the difficulties of emotion regulation abilities thought to improve the knowledge about OCD. Because this part believed not to have enough findings in the OCD literature. The results were discussed in the light of the related literature and dependent recommendations to the area were given.
