Abstract

Bu çalışmada gerçekçi olmayan ilişki inançlarını değiştirmek üzerine tasarlanan bilişsel davranışçı bir grup programının lisansüstü öğrencilerinin eş seçimine dair sınırlayıcı inançları ve romantik inançları üzerine etkililiği incelenmiştir. Alanyazın beliren yetişkinlikte verilecek ilişki eğitiminin önemini vurgulamaktadır. Bu amaçla “birinci grup çalışması” ve “ikinci grup çalışması” olarak isimlendirilen iki farklı grup çalışması gerçekleştirilmiştir. İkinci grup çalışması ilkinin replikasyonu olarak planlanmıştır. Birinci ve ikinci grup çalışmaları farklı katılımcılar ve aynı işlem ile tasarlanan iki deneysel çalışma olarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışmalarda ön test, son test ve takip testleri kullanılmış ve her iki çalışma için de kontrol grubuna yer verilmiştir. Çalışmalarda Eş seçiminde sınırlayıcı inançları ve romantik inançları ölçmek amacıyla Romantizm ve Eş Seçimi Tutum Ölçeği ve Romantik İnançlar Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Mevcut program her iki grup çalışmasında da eş seçimine dair sınırlayıcı inançları anlamlı düzeyde azaltırken, romantik ilişki inançlarını tekrarlayan ölçümlerde ilk grup çalışması için azaltmadığı ikinci grup çalışması için ise azalttığı görülmüştür. Bu çalışmadan elde edilen bulgular koruyucu bir faktör olarak ilişki eğitimi bakış açışıyla tartışılmıştır.

Abstract

In this study, the effectiveness of a cognitive behavioral group program designed to change unrealistic relationship beliefs on graduate students’ constraining beliefs about partner selection and romantic beliefs was examined. The literature emphasizes the importance of relationship education in emerging adulthood. For this purpose, two different group studies named "first group study" and "second group study" were carried out. The second group study was planned as a replication of the first one. The first and second group studies were conducted as two experimental studies designed with different participants and the same procedure. The studies employed a pretest-posttest-follow-up design with a control group. Romanticism and Attitudes Toward Mate Selection Scale and Romantic Belifs Scale were used in the studies to measure limiting beliefs and romantic beliefs in partner selection. The current program significantly reduced constraining beliefs about mate selection in both group interventions. However, while it did not reduce romantic relationship beliefs in repeated measurements for the first group study, it was observed to reduce them in the second group study. The findings of this study were discussed from the perspective of relationship education as a protective factor.
