Abstract: (1128 Views)
The aim of this study was to investigate the role of perceived gender discrimination and identity styles in predicting learned helplessness in girls experiencing home run. This research was descriptive and correlational. The statistical population of the study was girls referring to night care centers and shelters in Tehran, District 12 (Shoosh neighborhood) in the first quarter of 1400, from which 120 people were selected by purposive sampling. Research instruments included the Learned Helplessness Questionnaire (LHS) (Quinless & Nelson, 1988), the Gender Discrimination Incident Questionnaire (SSE) (Klonoff& Landrine, 1995), and the Identity Style Questionnaire (ISI) (Berzonsky, 1992). Pearson correlation test and simultaneous linear regression were used to analyze the data. Findings showed perceived gender discrimination (discriminatory events in the past year and throughout life) and confused/avoidant identity style with learned helplessness. A positive and significant relationship and normative, informational, and identity styles with helplessness. Learners had a negative and significant relationship (P <0.05). Also, the regression results showed that discriminatory events during life, discriminatory events during the past year, information identity style, normative identity style, and avoidant/confused identity style 0.52 predict learned helplessness. Given the perceived gender discrimination and identity styles in predicting the learned helplessness learned in girls with experience of running away from home, it seems necessary to conduct workshops based on these concepts for families.
