Description
Résumé:The study was conducted to investigate the religious coping and psychological resilience levels of women survivors of the earthquake living in temporary shelters after the devastating earthquakes that struck southern and eastern Turkey in 2023. In this cross-sectional study conducted between July 24, 2024, and September 24, 2024, 386 women living in a temporary shelter in a province in the eastern part of Turkey were included. Data were collected using the Personal Information Form, Religious Coping Scale, and Brief Resilience Scale. In the analysis of the data, descriptive statistics, independent samples t test, Mann-Whitney U test, ANOVA test, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Pearson correlation test were used. The findings indicated that statistically significant differences were determined between the scores the participating women obtained from the overall Positive Religious Coping Subscale of the Religious Coping Scale in terms of the variables such as age, education level, marital status, perceived income level, having living children, presence of a chronic disease, their views on the disaster they were struck by, and their perspectives on the future after the earthquake (p < .05). Statistically significant differences were determined between the scores the participating women obtained from the overall Brief Resilience Scale in terms of the variables such as post-earthquake changes in their sleep pattern and future perspectives (p < .05). There was a statistically significant weak negative relationship between the mean scores the participating women obtained from the Negative Religious Coping subscale of the Religious Coping Scale and the mean scores they obtained from the Brief Resilience Scale (p < .05). The participating women's psychological resilience levels decreased as their negative religious coping levels increased.
