Bu araştırma, 6 Şubat 2023’te Türkiye’de meydana gelen depremi deneyimlemiş kadınların depreme ilişkin metaforik algılarını incelemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu, depremden etkilenen 111 kadın oluşturmuştur. Araştırma, nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden biri olan fenomenolojik desen kullanılarak yürütülmüş olup, veriler katılımcıların “Deprem şuna benzer... Çünkü...” ifadesine verdikleri yanıtlar aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde betimsel analiz ve içerik analizi birlikte kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda, katılımcıların “deprem” kavramına ilişkin 129 farklı metafor ürettikleri saptanmıştır. Bu metaforlar, ortak özellikleri ve kullanım gerekçelerine göre “Deprem”, “Depremde Kadın Olma” ve “Depremde Yaşanan Zorluklar” olmak üzere üç kategoride sınıflandırılmıştır. Katılımcılar arasında en sık kullanılan metaforların kıyamet (f=25), çaresizlik (f=22), son (f=9), canavar (f=9), korku (f=8) ve sokakta kalan insan (f=7) olduğu belirlenmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular, kadınlara deprem sonrası baş etme becerilerinin kazandırılmasının, duygularını ifade edebilecekleri alanlar sağlanmasının ve duygusal destek sunulmasının önemini ortaya koymaktadır.

This study aimed to examine the metaphor perceptions of women who experienced an earthquake that occurred in Turkey on 6 February 2023. The sample consisted of 111 women who were affected by the earthquake. This research was conducted using a phenomenological design, one of the qualitative research methods, and the data were collected through the participants’ responses to the statement ‘Earthquake is like... Because...’. Descriptive analysis and content analysis were employed to analyse the data. The results revealed that the participants generated 129 different metaphors related to the concept of ‘earthquake’. These metaphors were classified into three categories based on their common features and reasons for use: ‘earthquake’, ‘being a woman in an earthquake’, and ‘difficulties experienced in an earthquake’. The most frequently used metaphors among the participants included apocalypse (f 25), helplessness (f 22), the end (f 9), monster (f 9) fear (f 8) and people left on the street (f 7). The findings reveal the importance of equipping women with coping skills after an earthquake, providing them with spaces to express their emotions, and offering emotional support.
