Özet:

 Informed by previous research on non-suicidal self-injury, researchers in the current study sought to understand further the relationships between non-suicidal self-injury, self-esteem, anxiety, and biological sex among college students. Further, the researchers were interested in both current non-suicidal self-injury engagement and lifetime non-suicidal self-injury engagement, which could provide information on prevalence before and after commencing college. In order to examine the predictive relationships between lifetime non-suicidal self-injury engagement, current non-suicidal self-injury engagement, self-esteem, anxiety, and biological sex, participants completed several instruments assessing aforementioned variables. Results yielded that non-suicidal self-injury engagement rate was higher before commencing college. It was further found that while trait anxiety was a significant predictor for current non-suicidal self-injury occurrence, self-esteem was a significant predictor of lifetime non-suicidal self-injury occurrence. Concerning non-suicidal self-injury functions, affect regulation was the leading reason to engage in non-suicidal self-injury followed by self-punishment and anti-dissociationmarking distress.

 Bu çalışmada kendini yaralama davranışı ile ilgili önceki araştırmalardan elde edilen bilgiler doğrultusunda üniversite öğrencileri arasında kendini yaralama, benlik saygısı, kaygı ve cinsiyet arasındaki ilişkileri daha derinlemesine incelenmiştir. Ayrıca, üniversiteye başlamadan önce ve üniversiteye başladıktan sonra kendini yaralama davranışının yaygınlığı hakkında bilgi sağlayabilecek mevcut ve yaşam boyu durum araştırılmıştır. Yaşam boyu kendini yaralama davranışı, mevcut kendini yaralama davranışı, benlik saygısı, kaygı ve cinsiyet arasındaki öngörücü ilişkileri incelemek için, katılımcılardan yukarıda belirtilen değişkenleri değerlendiren ölçme araçları kullanılarak veri toplanmıştır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre kendini yaralama davranışında bulunma olasılığının üniversiteye başlamadan önce üniversiteye başladıktan sonraya kıyasla daha yüksek olduğu görülmüştür. Ayrıca, sürekli kaygı mevcut kendini yaralama davranışı oluşumu için anlamlı bir yordayıcısı iken, benlik saygısının yaşam boyu kendini yaralama davranışı oluşumunun anlamlı bir yordayıcısı olduğu bulunmuştur. Kendini yaralama davranışı işlevleriyle ilgili olarak, önde gelen nedeninin duygu düzenlemesi olduğu bulunmuştur.
