This study aims to increase the level of self-compassion, improve their self-esteem and cope with stress so that women who are exposed to violence can fight violence more effectively, protect their physical and mental health, find the strength they need to direct their lives, and do all these through self-awareness, compassion and kindness. It is aimed to gain coping skills. For this purpose, a mindfulness-based strengthening program will be implemented.
详细描述
When the statistics on violence against women in the world are analyzed, it is seen that 16-25% of women are physically abused by their husbands, boyfriends or fiancees, and one out of every five women is exposed to this type of violence in their own home. It has been concluded that the approaches applied in intervention studies for women exposed to violence affect women's mental health positively, increase their self-esteem, improve their coping, problem-solving and decision-making skills, reduce their anger and stress levels, and increase their self-efficacy. In addition, it has been determined that mindfulness-based interventions applied to women who have been subjected to violence strengthen awareness and self-compassion, improve sense of belonging, compassion and problem-solving skills, reduce self-blame, depression, anxiety and suicidal thoughts, increase psychological well-being, and reduce PTSD symptoms. With the continuation of exposure to violence, women are insufficient to change their feelings and lives in a positive way, they are affected by the negative and judgmental attitudes of their environment, they struggle with all the negative effects of violence throughout their lives, they experience physical and mental disorders due to violence, and therefore they resort to harmful coping methods. In this sense, the aim of the study is to determine the effect of mindfulness-based empowerment program on self-compassion, self-esteem and ways of coping with stress in women exposed to violence.
The hypotheses of this study:

H0-2: There is no difference between the intervention group and the control group in terms of self-esteem.

时间窗: 8 weeks after enrollment
Coopersmith Self-Esteem Scale: Coopersmith (1967) found the reliability coefficient of the scale to be 0.91 for women and 0.80 for men. In addition, the Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the scale was determined as 0.86. Each item of the scale, which consists of 25 items, is determined according to two options as "suitable for me" and "not suitable for me". Scoring of the scale is made as "4" for each correct statement, "0" for each incorrect statement, the highest score that can be obtained from the scale is 100, and the lowest score is 0. As the score obtained from the scale increases, the self-esteem of individuals also increases. In the scale, a self-esteem level below 50 points is considered low, and a self-esteem level above 50 points is considered high. There is no reverse coded item in the scale.
