Abstract
Geç ergenlik dönemi gelişim görevlerinden biri kişinin kendisine yetebilen ve sosyal ilişkilerinde başarılı bir birey olarak yetişkinliğe hazırlanmasıdır. Bu şekilde kişinin yaşamdaki amacı olan iyi olma durumuna ulaşmayı hedefler. Ancak bağlanma stillerine bağlı olarak kişi gelişim dönemleri görevlerinde ya da sosyal ilişkilerinde bazı zorluklarla karşılaşabilmektedir. Öz şefkat ve psikolojik esneklik düzeyleri bu zorluklar ile başa çıkma sürecinde katkılar sunmaktadır. Bu bağlamda bu araştırmada, bağlanma stilleri ve psikolojik iyi oluş arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemek ve bu ilişkide öz şefkat ve psikolojik esnekliğin aracı rolünü incelemek amaçlanmıştır. Bu araştırma nicel desen ilişkisel tarama modelinde tasarlanmıştır. Araştırmanın uygun örnekleme yöntemi ile belirlenen grubunu 2023-2024 eğitim öğretim yılında Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Üniversitesi'nde öğrenim gören 237 lisans öğrencisi, Çoruh Üniversitesi'nde öğrenim gören 209 lisans öğrencisi ve Trabzon Üniversitesi'nde öğrenim gören 128 lisans öğrencisi oluşturmaktadır. Katılımcıların 316'sı kadın, 256'sı erkek ve 2'si diğer olarak belirlenmiştir. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak, Kişisel Bilgi Formu, Psikolojik İyi Oluş Ölçeği, Üç Boyutlu Bağlanma Stilleri Ölçeği, Öz Anlayış Ölçeği ve Psikolojik Esneklik Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada elde edilen veriler IBM SPSS v26 ve SPSS Process v4.1 makro eklentisi kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Bağlanma stilleri ile psikolojik iyi oluş arasındaki ilişkiler Pearson Momentler Çarpımı Korelasyon analizi ile incelenmiştir. Bağlanma stilleri ile psikolojik iyi oluş arasındaki ilişkide öz şefkat ve psikolojik esnekliğin yordama gücünün incelenmesinde Seri Çoklu Aracılık Modeli kullanılarak regresyon analizi yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonucunda güvenli bağlanma stili ile psikolojik iyi oluş, öz şefkat ve psikolojik esneklik arasında pozitif yönde; kaçınan bağlanma stili ile psikolojik iyi oluş, öz şefkat ve psikolojik esneklik arasında negatif yönde; kaygılı-kararsız bağlanma stili ile psikolojik iyi oluş, öz şefkat ve psikolojik esneklik arasında negatif yönde anlamlı ilişkiler bulunmuştur. Güvenli bağlanma stili ile psikolojik iyi oluş arasındaki ilişkide öz şefkat ve psikolojik esnekliğin kısmi aracılık hipotezini desteklediği bulunmuştur. Kaçınan bağlanma stili ile psikolojik iyi oluş arasındaki ilişkide öz şefkat ve psikolojik esnekliğin aracı değişken gücüne sahip olmadığı sonucu bulunmuştur. Kaygılı-kararsız bağlanma stili ile psikolojik iyi oluş arasındaki ilişkide öz şefkat ve psikolojik esnekliğin tam aracılık hipotezini desteklediği bulunmuştur. Anahtar Kelimeler: Bağlanma Stilleri, Psikolojik İyi Oluş, Öz-Şefkat, Psikolojik Esneklik, Geç Ergenlik Dönemi.
