Abstract:

 In this study, it was aimed to examine the mediating role of cognitive distortions in the relationship between self-compassion and social anxiety symptoms. In this study, which was carried out with the correlational design, which is one of the quantitative research methods, 190 participants were reached. 80 of the participants are female and 20 are male. The age range of the participants varies between 18-47, with an average of 20.72 .32. Self-report scales consisting of a personal information form, self-compassion scale, cognitive distortions scale, and Liebowitz social anxiety scale were applied to the participants in the study. The analysis of the data regarding the research findings was carried out using the SPSS 22 package program. Descriptive statistics were used to obtain information on demographic data. Regression analysis was performed using the Process V4.2 extension Model 4 to examine the mediating role of cognitive distortions in the relationship between self-compassion and social anxiety disorder. Correlation analysis was also performed to examine the relationship between variables. According to the findings, it was found that there is a positive and significant relationship between the variables of self-compassion, social anxiety, and cognitive distortions. In addition, it has been observed that cognitive distortions have a mediating role in the relationship between self-compassion and social anxiety.

 Bu çalışmada, öz şefkat ve sosyal kaygı belirtileri ilişkisinde bilişsel çarpıtmaların aracılık rolünün incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden olan korelasyonel desenle gerçekleştirilen bu çalışmada 190 katılımcıya ulaşılmıştır. Katılımcıların  80i kadın, 20si erkektir. Katılımcıların yaş aralığı 18-47 arasında değişmekte olup, ortalaması 20.72 .32dir. Çalışmada katılımcılara kişisel bilgi formu, öz şefkat ölçeği, bilişsel çarpıtmalar ölçeği ve Liebowitz sosyal kaygı ölçeğinden oluşan öz bildirim ölçekleri uygulanmıştır. Araştırma bulgularına ilişkin verilerin analizi SPSS 22 paket programı kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Demografik verilere ilişkin bilgileri elde ederken betimleyici istatistikler kullanılmıştır. Öz şefkat ve sosyal kaygı bozukluğu ilişkisinde bilişsel çarpıtmaların aracılık rolünü inceleyebilmek amacıyla Process V4.2 uzantısı Model 4 kullanılarak regresyon analizi yapılmıştır. Değişkenler arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemek için de korelasyon analizi yapılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgulara göre öz şefkat sosyal kaygı ve bilişsel çarpıtmalar değişkenlerinin aralarında pozitif yönlü anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu bulunmuştur. Ayrıca öz şefkatin sosyal kaygı ile ilişkisinde bilişsel çarpıtmaların aracılık rolü olduğu da görülmüştür.
