Examining The Relationship Between Criminal Thinking and Childhood Traumas and Parental Attitudes in Adult Individuals

Summary/Abstract: In this study, it was aimed to investigate the relationship of childhood traumas and parental attitudes with criminal thinking in adult individuals. The study group of the research consists of a total of 386 participants, 196 women and 190 men, who reside within the borders of TRNC and the Republic of Türkiye, are 18 years of age and over, and whose parents were alive until adulthood. In the study, the correlation method was used to examine the relationship between variables. In the research, a sample was selected from the population using the convenience sampling method. Sociodemographic Information Form, Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ), s-EMBU-C and Criminal Thinking Scales (CTS) were used as data collection tools in the study. Data was collected online via Google Forms. In this study, where the relationship between childhood traumas, parental attitudes, sociodemographic characteristics and criminal thinking was evaluated, significant relationships were found between childhood traumas and criminal thinking scales, and between perceived parental attitudes and criminal thinking scales. Additionally, in the analysis comparing the three scales, it was seen that parental attitudes did not predict criminal thinking, while childhood traumas predicted criminal thinking and engaged a full mediator role in the relationship between perceived parental attitudes and criminal thinking. In line with these results, it would be beneficial for public health to conduct studies on children exposed to trauma and/or growing up with negative parental attitudes.
