Çocuk istismarının Türkiye’de yapılan lisansüstü çalışmalara yansıması: Bir literatür incelemesi

Abstract

In this study, it is aimed to determine the postgraduate studies dealing with the issue of child abuse in Turkey and to examine them in various scopes. For this purpose, the study was completed by making the necessary literature review. 81 graduate studies were included in the study and the studies included in the study were analyzed using the document analysis technique. As a result of the research, it was seen that the first graduate study on this subject was 1998. Considering the distribution between 1998-2020, it stands out that there was no postgraduate study published in the Council of Higher Education in 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2003. Considering the distribution of the studies, it is seen that there was a rapid increase in their number in the period after 2016. It was determined that quantitative research methods were most preferred (n = 61) and scale, questionnaire, survey were used as data collection tools in the studies reviewed; qualitative method was used in 5 studies; and the mixed research design was prefered in only 1 study. It has been observed that most of the studies conducted in Turkey are about determining the knowledge and awareness levels of various sample groups on child abuse. No study has been found on the treatment and rehabilitation processes of children who have been subjected to child abuse and the perpetrators of abuse after the occurrence of this situation and their experiences in these processes.
