Vloga psihološke fleksibilnosti in sočutja do sebe pri stigmi do oseb z duševnimi motnjami

Baković, Urška (avtor), Žvelc, Gregor (mentor)

Raziskava naslavlja odnos med psihološko fleksibilnostjo, nefleksibilnostjo, sočutjem do sebe in predsodki do oseb z duševnimi motnjami s poudarkom na odkrivanju ključnih napovednikov predsodkov. Raziskovanje je potekalo na vzorcu 319 mladih na prehodu v odraslost (od tega 59 moških), v povprečju starih 23,94 leta. Rezultati namigujejo na to, da se čuječnost negativno povezuje z zaznavanjem oseb z duševnimi motnjami kot nepredvidljivih v vedenju. Izraženost sočutja do sebe se je z izraženostjo psihološke fleksibilnosti povezovala pozitivno, z izraženostjo nefleksibilnosti pa negativno. Psihološka nefleksibilnost se je s fleksibilnostjo povezovala negativno. Konstrukta sta si pomensko nasprotna, a ne povsem, zato je v raziskovanje smotrno vključevati meri obeh. Regresijski model ni bil stabilen, nakazuje pa na pomen psihološke nefleksibilnosti kot napovednika predsodkov. Psihološka fleksibilnost je bila za pojasnjevanje ključna le v kombinaciji z nefleksibilnostjo, sočutje do sebe pa se ni izkazalo kot pomembno v napovedovanju in pojasnjevanju predsodkov. Opozoriti velja, da povezave psihološke nefleksibilnosti s predsodki niso potekale v predvideni smeri. Tudi iz regresijskih koeficientov je razvidno povezovanje višje izraženosti psihološke nefleksibilnosti z nižjo izraženostjo predsodkov do oseb z duševnimi motnjami. Zbrani rezultati ne omogočajo oblikovanja trdnih zaključkov o osrednjem raziskovalnem problemu, saj so povezave predsodkov s preostalimi konstrukti šibke in v večini neskladne s tezami drugih avtorjev. Kljub razhajanju rezultatov magistrske raziskave z izsledki drugih avtorjev magistrsko delo omogoča enega prvih vpogledov v povezave konstruktov na področju terapije sprejemanja in predanosti z že uveljavljenimi, kot je stigma do oseb z duševnimi motnjami. Izsledki tako odpirajo nova vprašanja in možnosti raziskovanja, v slovenski prostor uvajajo razmeroma novo izrazoslovje, pozivajo k poenotenju strokovne terminologije na področju stigme in poudarjajo konstrukte, ki bi jih bilo ob trdnejši empirični podlagi smiselno vključiti v različne programe za zmanjševanje stigmatizacije na področju duševnega zdravja.

Izvleček

This research addresses the relationship between psychological flexibility, inflexibility, self-compassion and prejudice towards people with psychological disorders, particularly discovering the key predictors of prejudice. The research was conducted on a sample of 319 young adults (59 males) with the average age of 23.94 years. The results imply a negative relation between mindfulness and perceiving people with psychological disorders as unpredictable in their behavior. Self-compassion was positively related to psychological flexibility and negatively to inflexibility. Psychological inflexibility correlated negatively with psychological flexibility. The meaning of these two constructs is opposite, but not entirely; therefore, it is sensible to include both of them in the research. The regression model is unstable, but it points out the role of psychological inflexibility as a predictor of prejudice. Psychological flexibility had the key role in explaining prejudice only in combination with inflexibility. Self-compassion did not turn out as significant in predicting and explaining prejudice. It is necessary to emphasize that the correlations between psychological inflexibility and prejudice were not in accordance with our expectations. The regression coefficients also indicate that a higher degree of expressed psychological inflexibility correlates to a lower degree of expressed prejudice towards people with psychological disorders. The results make it impossible to form solid conclusions about the main research problem for the correlations between prejudice and other constructs in our study are weak and mostly not congruent with the previous results. Despite the discrepancies mentioned in the results, this thesis offers one of the first insights into the correlations between the constructs in the field of acceptance and commitment therapy and the already established constructs, such as stigma towards people with psychological disorders. These findings open up new questions and research possibilities. What is more, they introduce a relatively new terminology to the Slovenian research space, appeal to unify the expert terminology in the field of stigma and point out the constructs that with prior firmer empirical knowledge could be included in various mental health stigma reduction programs.
