Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışma annelerde algılanan stres ve stresle baş etme yöntemlerini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır.
Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı tipte olan bu çalışma 30 Mayıs 2021-30 Haziran 2021 tarihleri arasında yürütülmüştür. Çalışma bir ilde yaşayan online erişimi olan ve çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden 385 anne ile tamamlanmıştır. Veriler, anket formu, Algılanan Stres ve Stresle Baş Etme Ölçeği aracılığı ile toplanmıştır. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde IBM SPSS Statistics 25.0 paket programından yararlanılmıştır.
Bulgular: Çalışmadaki annelerin %61’i 18-39 yaş arasında olup, %77.4’ü lisans ve üzeri eğitim düzeyindedir. Annelerin %72.2’si çalışmakta, %77.9’unun çocuğu okula gitmektedir. Annelerin Algılanan Stres Ölçeği puan ortalaması 28.64±6.94’tür. Stresle Baş Etme Ölçeği etkili baş etme boyutu puan ortalaması 29.08±7.70, etkisiz baş etme boyutu puan ortalaması 14.92±6.33’tür. Algılanan stres ile etkisiz baş etme arasında pozitif yönde istatiksel olarak anlamlı bir ilişki vardır.
Sonuç: Çalışma sonucunda annelerde algılanan stresin düşük olduğunu ve etkili baş etme yöntemlerinin iyi düzeyde olduğunu göstermektedir. Etkisiz baş etme yöntemi kullananlara psikososyal destek programları ve stresle baş etme eğitimleri düzenlenebilir.

Abstract

Aim: This study was conducted to determine the perceived stress of mothers and their methods of coping with stress.
Method: This descriptive study was conducted with 385 mothers who lived in a province, had online access and agreed to participate between the period 30 May 2021 and 30 June 2021. Data were collected through a questionnaire and the Perceived Stress and Coping with Stress Scale. IBM SPSS Statistics 25.0 program was used to evaluate the data.
Results: 61% of the mothers in the study were between the ages of 18-39, and 77.4% of them had a bachelor's degree or higher education level. While 72.2% of them state that they work, 77.9% of them state that their children do not go to school. The mean score of the Mothers' Perceived Stress Scale was 28.64±6.94. The mean score of the effective coping dimension of the Stress Coping Scale was 29.08±7.70, and the mean score of the ineffective coping dimension was 14.92±6.33. There is a statistically significant positive correlation between perceived stress and ineffective coping.
Conclusion: The study shows that mothers' perceived stress is low and effective coping methods are at a good level. It is evaluated that psychosocial support programs and stress coping training can be organized for those who use ineffective coping methods.
