Official title: The Effect of Cognitive Behavioral Approach-based Psychoeducation on the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Strategies and Negative Emotional Symptom Levels of Emerging Adults Who Experienced an Earthquake

This research was planned to determine the effect of cognitive behavioral approach-based psychoeducation on the cognitive emotion regulation strategies and negative emotional symptom levels of emerging adults who experienced an earthquake. In this research, pre-test, post-test and follow-up test will be performed and there will be 1 experimental and 1 control group created by randomization.After the pre-test applied to the experimental and control groups, a 9-session cognitive behavioral approach-based psychoeducation program will be applied to the experimental group.Following this application, post-test and one-month follow-up tests will be administered to both groups and the effectiveness of the psychoeducation program will be compared.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. cognitive emotion regulation scale

    The scale consists of 36 items, with 9 subscales and 4 items in each subscale. Each subscale receives a value between 4-20 points and the scale is a 5-point Likert type scale (1: Never, 2: Sometimes, 47 3: Regularly, 4: Frequently, 5: Always).Evaluation is made with the scores obtained from the subscales. A higher score from a subscale indicates greater use of the cognitive emotion regulation strategy determined by that subscale.

    Measured: Two months

  2. Depression, Anxiety, Stress Scale

    The scale consists of 21 items, with 3 sub-dimensions (depression, anxiety and stress) and 7 items in each sub-dimension.

    The scale is designed as a self-evaluation scale with a 4-point Likert structure scored between 0-4. (0- Never, 1- Sometimes and occasionally, 2- Quite often, 3- Always). The scoring range of the scale for depression is: 0-4 normal, 5-6 mild, 7-10 moderate, 11-13 severe, 14 and above very severe; for anxiety: 0-3 normal, 4-5 mild, 6-7 moderate, 8-9 severe, and 10 and above very severe; For stress: 0-7 is normal, 8-9 is mild, 10-12 is moderate, 13-16 is severe, 17 and above is very severe.

    Measured: Two months
