Ebeveynleşme ile Depresyon, Kaygı, Stres Arasındaki İlişkide Benliğin Ayrımlaşmasının Aracı Rolü

Abstract

The aim of this study is to examine the mediating role of self-differentiation in the relationship between parentification and depression, anxiety, and stress. For this purpose, data were collected from a total of 1197 young adults, 768 of whom were women and 429 men. The data of the study were collected using the parentification inventory, depression, anxiety, stress scale, and the differentiation of self scale. Relationships between the data obtained from the research were analyzed by using Pearson Product Moment Correlation. Mediation analyzes were carried out by regression analysis. The Sobel Z test was used to determine the statistical significance of the mediation effect. According to the findings of the study, there is no mediating role of self-differentiation in the relationship between parent-focused parentification and depression; a partial mediating role was determined in the relationship between parent-focused parentification and anxiety and stress. Another finding shows that self-differentiation has complete mediating role in the relationship between sibling focused parentification and depression and stress. In the relationship between sibling focused parentification and anxiety, it was observed that self differentiation has a partial mediating role. Finally, it was found that self-differentiation had partial mediating role in the relationship between perceived benefit of parentalification and depression, anxiety, and stress.
