Adı Vasfiye ve Dağınık Yatak filmlerinin Carl Rogers’ın kişilik kuramı bağlamında incelenmesi
A Review on the films Adı Vasfiye (Her Name is Vasfiye) and Dağınık Yatak (Unmade Bed) in the Context of Carl Rogers’ Theory of Personality

Summary/Abstract: Within the wide area of representation of cinema, woman's personality structure experienced a sharp change in Yeşilçam Cinema and this change was reflected on the culture, art and consequently individual over politics. As an area of art where cultural changes affect large masses in Turkey, Yeşilçam Cinema has distinctive qualities in terms of the representation and formation of woman's personality. While the stereotyped woman reflected in Yeşilçam Cinema before 1980 had a radical nature with being good and bad, being good was represented with passive characteristics, and being bad with negative characteristics such as the display of sexuality and greed. After 1980, woman's identity and personality development turned away from this dilemma into a more realistic representation; this transformation was interpreted as woman's liberation (Onaran, 1995: 15-16). This transformation was seen in the 'women's films' by Atıf Yılmaz in the 1980s. In these films, woman, as in other Yeşilçam films, is in the center of the film and reflects a different representation of a woman, who accepted the roles determined for women depending on the social gender without any condition and who was kept in the house. With the representation of a 'free woman', Müjde Ar consecutively appeared before the audience as similar characters. Hence, Adı Vasfiye (1985) and Dağınık Yatak (1984) by Atıf Yılmaz starring Müjde Ar in the leading role can be seen as the examples of the representation of the woman interpreted as the woman's liberation. Therefore, it was aimed to psychologically discuss the new representation of free woman in Adı Vasfiye and Dağınık Yatak on the basis of Carl Rogers' theory of personality and present it with the interpretive approach. The character represented by Müjde Ar in Adı Vasfiye and Dağınık Yatak was not as free as interpreted in Carl Rogers' theory of personality, where he defined the 'self-actualized', self-made human, and did not fulfill the personality structure of the self-made human characteristics defined by Carl Rogers.
