Abstract

This study has attempted to investigate the predictability of university students’ personality traits, cultural values, stress coping strategies, negative automatic thoughts and gender on their professional/formal psychological help seeking attitudes. This research has been carried on with the participation of a total of 1284 university students. Predictive correlational method was used. To collect data, valid and reliable measurements were conducted. The hierarchical multiple regression analysis has been used to evaluate the data. As predictors of the psychological help seeking attitude, conscientious and agreeable students have more positive attitudes, but negative-valent and open ones have more negative attitudes. Students who use seeking social support and avoidance stress coping strategies have more positive attitudes, but who use keep-to-self have more negative attitudes. Collectivist and female participants’ help seeking attitudes are more positive. With these variables, 14% of the attitude of seeking psychological help is explained. The findings of the study were associated to Theory of Planned Behavior and discussed in the light of literature.

Kişilik, kültür ve başa çıkma stratejilerinin üniversite öğrencilerinin psikolojik yardım alma tutumunu yordayıcılığı

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, üniversite öğrencilerinin psikolojik yardım alam tutumları ile kişilik özellikleri, kültürel kimlikleri, başa çıkma stratejileri ve olumsuz otomatik düşünceleri arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda 1284 üniversite öğrencisinin katılımı ile çalışma nicel desenlerden ilişkisel tarama yöntemi ile yürütülmüştür. Verileri toplamak için geçerlilik-güvenirlik çalışmaları yapılmış ölçme araçları kullanılmış ve verilerin analizinde çoklu doğrusal regresyon analizi yapılmıştır. Bulgulara bakıldığında sorumlu ve uyumlu kişilikteki katılımcıların psikolojik yardım alma konusunda daha olumlu tutuma sahip olduğu, negatif değerli ve yeniliğe açık kişilerin ise olumsuz tutuma sahip oldukları bulunmuştur. Sosyal destek ve kaçınmacı başa çıkmayı kullananların olumlu tutuma sahip oldukları, gizleme davranışı sergileyenlerin olumsuz yardım alam tutumuna sahip oldukları bulunmuştur. Toplulukçu kültürün değerlerini benimseyenler ile kadınların psikolojik yardım alma konusunda olumlu tutum benimsedikleri bulunmuştur. Bu değişkenler ile psikolojik yardım alma tutumunun % 14’ü açıklanmaktadır. Bulgular literatür ışığında tartışılmıştır.
