Publication: Orta Yetişkinlik Dönemi Dindarlık ve Mutluluk İlişkisi
Abstract
Bu çalışmada, orta yetişkinlik döneminde bulunan bireylerin dindarlık ve mutluluk düzeylerini, bazı bağımsız değişkenler açısından incelemek ve aralarındaki ilişkiyi açıklamak amaçlanmıştır. Araştırma, 2016 yılında Amasya ilinin Merzifon ilçesinde, 35-55 yaş grubunda bulunan ve tesadüfi olarak seçilen 270 yetişkin üzerinde yapılmıştır. Araştırmada bireylerin dindarlık ve mutluluk düzeyleri üzerinde etkili olduğu düşünülen cinsiyet, yaş, medeni durum, meslek grubu, gelir seviyesi, öğrenim durumu ve yerleşim yeri olmak üzere yedi bağımsız değişken ele alınmıştır. Araştırmada bireylerin mutluluk ve dindarlık düzeylerini ölçmek için 'Dindarlık Envanteri' ve Mutluluk Envanteri' ile 'Kişisel Bilgi Anketi' kullanılmıştır. Araştırma bir giriş ve üç bölümden oluşmaktadır. Giriş kısmında araştırmanın amacı, problem ve alt problemler, hipotezler, temel kavramlar ile ilgili çalışmalar; birinci bölümde orta yetişkinlik döneminin fiziksel, psikolojik, sosyal, dini özellikleri ile dindarlık ve mutluluk ilişkisi; ikinci bölümde yöntem ve uygulama; üçüncü bölümde bulgular ve yorum kısmı bulunmaktadır. Sonuç bölümünde ise, araştırmada elde edilen bulgular ile ilgili genel bir değerlendirme yapılmıştır. Araştırmada elde edilen verilerin istatistiksel analizinde SPSS (Statiscal Package for Social Sciences) paket programı, hipotezlerin test edilmesinde ise varyans analizi (ANOVA- F testi) kullanılmıştır. Sonuçların önemlilik düzeyinde en çok 0,05 hata payı olarak kabul edilmiştir. Araştırmamızın sonunda ' mesleki durum' , 'öğrenim durumu' ve 'yerleşim yerinin' dindarlık düzeyini etkilediği ortaya çıkmıştır. Mutluluk düzeyini ise önemlilik derecesinde etkileyen 'medeni durum' olarak bulunmuştur. Dindarlık ve mutluluk arasındaki ilişkiye bakıldığında ise farkın anlamlılık derecesinde önemli olmadığı görülmüştür. Anahtar Sözcükler: Orta Yetişkinlik Dönemi, Din, Dindarlık, Mutluluk, Ruh Sağlığı

At the significance level of the results, a maximum of 0.05 error margin was accepted. At the end of our study, it was revealed that the 'occupational status', 'educational status' and 'settlement' affected the level of religiousness.
