Abstract

Bu araştırmanın amacı; bireylerin algıladıkları aile bütünlüğü duygusunun Covid-19 pandemi sürecinde ailelerdeki çatışma ve birlik durumlarına etkisinin incelenmesidir. Ayrıca, bireylerin bazı sosyodemografik özellikleriyle birlikte pandemi döneminde yaşanan iş ve sağlık sorunları ile aile bütünlük duygusu ve ailede yaşanan çatışma ve birlik durumu arasındaki ilişkilerin incelenmesi de alt amaçları oluşturmaktadır. Çalışma grubunda bulunan 18 yaş üstünde uygun örnekleme yöntemiyle ulaşılan 137 katılımcıdan elde edilen veriler araştırma sonuçlarına dâhil edilmiştir. Veriler 2021 yılının Ocak, Şubat ve Mart aylarında elektronik ortamda toplanmıştır. Araştırmada Kişisel Bilgi Formu, Covid-19 Hane Halkı Çevre Ölçeği (CHÇÖ), Aile Bütünlük (Tutarlılık) Duygusu Ölçeği (ABDÖ-K) Kısa Formu kullanılmıştır. Araştırma bulgularına göre; bireylerin algıladıkları aile bütünlük duygusunun aile içi çatışmayı anlamlı bir şeklide yordadığı belirlenirken, aile içi birlik/beraberliğin anlamlı bir yordayıcısı olmadığı belirlenmiştir. Dolayısıyla, bireylerin algıladıkları aile bütünlüğü duygusu Covid-19 sürecinde ailelerdeki çatışma üzerinde etkili olabilmektedir. Covid-19 sürecinde aile içi çatışma ile cinsiyet ve algılanan sosyoekonomik düzey arasında anlamlı farklılıklar bulunmakla birlikte çocuk sayısı ile de pozitif yönlü bir ilişki bulunmaktadır. Sağlık sektöründe çalışan bir aile bireyinin bulunma durumunun da aile içindeki birlik ve beraberlik durumunda anlamlı farklılık oluşturduğu saptanmıştır. Cinsiyet, algılanan sosyoekonomik düzey ve aile içinde hastalık belirtisi gösteren bireyin bulunması aile bütünlük duygusu ile ilişkili olan değişkenler olarak belirlenmiştir.

EXAMINATION OF THE EFFECT OF FAMILY SENSE OF COHESION PERCEIVED BY INDIVIDUALS IN THE COVID-19 PROCESS ON THE STATUS OF CONFLICT AND UNITY IN THE FAMILY

Abstract

The purpose of this research; The aim of this study is to examine the effect of the sense of family cohesiın perceived by individuals on the conflict and unity situations in families during the Covid-19 pandemic. In addition, some sociodemographic characteristics of individuals, together with the work and health problems that spread during the pandemic period, the sense of family cohesion and the relationship between conflict and unity in the family constitute sub-objectives. The data obtained from the 137 participants in the study group, who were reached by the convenient sampling method over the age of 18, were included in the research results. Data were collected electronically in January, February and March 2021. Personal Information Form, Covid-19 Household Environment Scale (CHÇÖ), Family Integrity (Consistency) Sense Scale (USAS-S) Short Form were used in the study. According to the research findings; while it was determined that the sense of family cohesion perceived by individuals significantly predicted intra-familial conflict, it was not found to be a significant predictor of intra-familial unity/togetherness. Therefore, the sense of family cohesion perceived by individuals can have an impact on the conflict in families during the Covid-19 process. While there are significant differences between family conflict, gender and perceived socioeconomic level during the Covid-19 process, there is also a positive relationship with the number of children. It has been determined that the presence of a family member working in the health sector also creates a significant difference in the unity and solidarity within the family. Gender, perceived socioeconomic level, and the presence of an individual showing signs of illness in the family were determined as variables associated with the sense of family unity.
