Background & Statement of the problem: The presence of journalists and photographers in conflict zones exposes them to psychological vulnerabilities, which may lead to the development of psychological disorders over time. Objectives: This study aimed to assess the level of psychological fragility among a sample of journalists and photographers during their coverage of events in conflict zones in Palestine. Methods: To achieve the study objectives, a mixed-methods approach was employed. The Obaidat Psychological Fragility Scale (2021) was administered to a sample of 141 participants selected using purposive sampling method. Results: The findings revealed an average level of psychological fragility, with a mean score of 2.76, representing 54% of the maximum score. Additionally, the results indicated no statistically significant differences in the mean scores of psychological fragility based on the type of work variable. However, statistically significant differences were observed in the mean scores based on years of experience. Qualitative analysis identified several factors contributing to psycho- logical fragility, including extended work hours without breaks, exposure to distressing live scenes, lack of protection from potential harm and attacks, and insufficient psychological support. Conclusions (Recommendations and contributions): The study recommends the importance of developing comprehensive and effective counseling programs to reduce psychological vulnerability and improve levels of psychological resilience among journalists and photographers specializing in covering hot events.

Bu çalışma, dinî boyutun dâhil edildiği psikolojik danışma sürecinin üniversite öğrencilerinin psikopatolojik düzeylerini gidermede etkili olup olmadığının sınanması amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırma, Mardin Artuklu Üniversitesine bağlı farklı birimlerde lisans düzeyinde öğrenim gören on beş öğrenci ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu öğrencilerden yedisine bireysel psikolojik danışma; sekizine ise dinî boyutun dâhil edildiği bireysel psikolojik danışma uygulanmıştır. Deneklerin seçilmesinde ve uygulamanın etkililiğini ölçmede Kısa Semptom Envanteri (KSE) kullanılmıştır. KSE, psikolojik danışma müdahalesinden önce, müdahale süreci bittikten hemen sonra ve son test uygulandıktan 6 ay sonra danışanlara uygulanmıştır. Psikolojik danışma müdahalesinin danışanların psikopatolojik düzeyleri üzerindeki etkisini test etmek amacıyla toplanan veriler, SPSS 21.0 paket programı kullanılarak çözümlenmiş ve Mann- Whitney U ve Wilcoxon İşaretli Sıralar Testleri kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda dinî boyutun dahil edildiği bireysel psikolojik danışma uygulamasının üniversite öğrencilerinin psikopatoloji düzeylerini düşürmede kalıcı bir etkiye sahip olduğu ve somatizasyon, obsesif- kompulsif düşünceler, depresyon ve anksiyete alt boyutları ile genel psikopatoloji düzeyini düşürmede bireysel psikolojik danışmadan daha etkili olduğu saptanmıştır.
