 Bu çalısma içsel dinî motivasyon ile öz-nefret arasındaki ilişkiyi ve bütünleyici umut duygusunun bu ilişkideki aracı rolünü incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Nicel desende tasarlanan araştırmanın örneklemini Türkiyenin farklı şehirlerinde ikamet eden 20-60 yaş aralığındaki 100ü erkek, 279u kadın olmak üzere toplam 379 katılımcı oluşturmaktadır. Veriler; Öz-Nefret Ölçegi, İçsel Dinî Motivasyon Ölçegi ve Bütünleyici Umut Ölçeği kullanılarak elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen verilerin analizinde SPSS 28 ve PROCESS Macro 4.2 kullanılmıştır. Bulgular, içsel dinî motivasyon ile öz-nefret arasında negatif yönde, içsel dinî motivasyon ile bütünleyici umut arasında pozitif yönde, bütünleyici umut ile öz-nefret arasında ise negatif yönde anlamlı ilişkiler olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Aracılık analizi; bütünleyici umudun, içsel dinî motivasyon ile öz-nefret arasındaki ilişkide tam aracılık rolü oynadığını göstermektedir.
