20.500.12556/RUL-186458 Povezanost socialne podpore in psiholoških težav v nosečnosti - kvantitativna študija diplomsko delo The association between social support and psychological problems during pregnancy - a quantitative study diploma work Uvod: Med nosečnostjo in v prvem letu po porodu številne ženske doživljajo spremembe v duševnem zdravju, ki segajo od blažjih psihičnih stisk do klinično opredeljenih duševnih motenj. Pogosto se te težave združujejo pod širšim pojmom psihološke težave, ki vključuje tako diagnosticirane motnje kot tudi nediagnosticirane, a za posameznico obremenjujoče občutke, kot so stres, tesnoba in žalost. Socialna podpora pomembno vpliva na izkušnjo prehoda v materinstvo, saj zmanjšuje občutek ranljivosti ter krepi samozaupanje in pozitivnejše sprejemanje nove življenjske vloge. Opredeljujemo jo kot pomoč, ki jo posameznica prejema iz svojega socialnega okolja, vključno s partnerjem, z družino, s prijatelji in širšo skupnostjo. Vključuje različne oblike podpore, ki prispevajo k boljšemu psihičnemu počutju, učinkovitejšemu obvladovanju stresa ter manjšemu tveganju za razvoj psiholoških težav. Namen: Namen diplomskega dela je bil raziskati, ali višja raven socialne podpore deluje kot zaščitni dejavnik pred stresom, anksioznostjo in depresijo v času nosečnosti pri ženskah v Sloveniji. Metode dela: V teoretičnem delu je bil opravljen pregled strokovne in znanstvene literature o depresiji, anksioznosti in stresu v nosečnosti, kot najpogostejših psiholoških težavah perinatalnega obdobja, ter vlogi socialne podpore pri njihovem preprečevanju in obvladovanju. Posebna pozornost je bila namenjena tudi vlogi in kompetencam babice pri obravnavi nosečnic. Literatura je bila iskana v bazah PubMed, Google Scholar in ScienceDirect, v slovenskem in angleškem jeziku, z omejitvijo na zadnjih deset let. V empiričnem delu je bila uporabljena kvantitativna metoda z dvema standardiziranima vprašalnikoma DASS-21 in MSPSS, prevedenima v slovenski jezik. Vprašalnika sta bila oblikovana v spletnem orodju 1KA Arnes in distribuirana preko družbenih omrežij. Podatki so bili analizirani v programskem okolju Jamovi. Rezultati: Analiza je pokazala statistično značilne povezave med depresijo, anksioznostjo in stresom ter statistično značilno povezanost med zaznano socialno podporo in pojavnostjo psiholoških težav. Ugotovljena je bila tudi povezava med večjo raznolikostjo virov socialne podpore in nižjo pojavnostjo depresije, anksioznosti in stresa ter med nižjim ekonomskim statusom in višjo pojavnostjo psiholoških težav. Med prvorodkami in mnogorodkami ni bilo statistično značilnih razlik. Razprava in zaključek: Raziskava poudarja pomembnost socialne podpore kot ključnega zaščitnega dejavnika pri zmanjševanju stresa, anksioznosti in depresije v času nosečnosti. Rezultati poudarjajo potrebo po sistematičnem vključevanju babic v obravnavo duševnega zdravja nosečnic ter krepitvi dostopnosti socialne in strokovne podpore v perinatalnem obdobju. Introduction: During pregnancy and the first year after childbirth, many women experience changes in their mental health, ranging from mild psychological distress to clinically defined mental disorders. These difficulties are often grouped under the broader term psychological distress, which includes both diagnosed disorders and undiagnosed but burdensome feelings such as stress, anxiety, and sadness. Social support plays an important role in the transition to motherhood, as it reduces feelings of vulnerability and strengthens self-confidence and a more positive acceptance of the new life role. It is defined as the assistance a woman receives from her social environment, including her partner, family, friends, and the wider community. Social support encompasses various forms of assistance that contribute to better psychological well-being, more effective stress management, and a lower risk of developing psychological difficulties. Purpose: The aim of this diploma work was to investigate whether a higher level of social support acts as a protective factor against stress, anxiety, and depression during pregnancy among women in Slovenia. Methods: The theoretical part consisted of a review of professional and scientific literature on depression, anxiety, and stress during pregnancy, which are among the most common psychological difficulties of the perinatal period, as well as the role of social support in their prevention and management. Special attention was also given to the role and competencies of midwives in the care of pregnant women. Literature was searched in the PubMed, Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect databases in both Slovenian and English, with a limitation to publications from the last ten years. The empirical part employed a quantitative research method using two standardized questionnaires, DASS-21 and MSPSS, translated into Slovenian. The questionnaires were created using the 1KA Arnes online survey tool and distributed through social media. Data were analyzed using the Jamovi statistical software package. Results: The analysis showed statistically significant associations between depression, anxiety, and stress, as well as a statistically significant association between perceived social support and the occurrence of psychological difficulties. A relationship was also found between greater diversity of social support sources and lower levels of depression, anxiety, and stress, as well as between lower economic status and a higher occurrence of psychological difficulties. No statistically significant differences were found between primiparous and multiparous women. Discussion and conclusion: The study highlights the importance of social support as a key protective factor in reducing stress, anxiety, and depression during pregnancy. The findings emphasize the need for the systematic involvement of midwives in addressing the mental health of pregnant women and for strengthening the availability of social and professional support during the perinatal period. diplomska dela babištvo nosečnost socialna podpora stres anksioznost depresija diploma theses midwifery pregnancy social support stress antenatal anxiety depression true false false [L.
