ÖZET
 Amaç: Çalışma, geçmişte şiddete maruz kalmış erkek üniversite öğrencilerinin benlik saygısı ve flört şiddeti tutumları arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesi amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel tipteki çalışmamızın evrenini Türkiye'deki erkek üniversite öğrencileri oluşturmuş, örneklemi ise evreni temsil gücüne sahip, olasılıksız örneklem yöntemlerinden kartopu örneklem yöntemiyle seçilen, 18-25 yaş aralığında, bekâr, şiddet mağduru ve Türkçe konuşabilen 201 erkek üniversite öğrencisi oluşturmuştur. Veriler; anket formu, şiddet tarama formu, Rosenberg Benlik Saygısı Ölçeği (RBSÖ) ve Flört Şiddeti Tutum Ölçeği (FŞTÖ) kullanılarak elde edilmiştir. Veriler, tanımlayıcı istatistikler, t-testi, Pearson korelasyon analizi ve çoklu doğrusal regresyon analizi kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular: Çalışmamızda, erkek üniversite öğrencilerinin geçmişte fiziksel şiddete maruz kalma oranı %75,40, psikolojik şiddete maruz kalma oranı %88,70 olarak bulunmuştur. Psikolojik şiddete maruz kalanlar, kardeşlerinden şiddet görenler ve geçmişte duygusal ilişkisi olmayanlarda RBSÖ puan ortalamaları istatistiksel olarak anlamlı düzeyde daha yüksek bulunmuştur (p<0,05). Yapılan çoklu doğrusal regresyon analizi sonucunda; cinsel şiddete maruz kalmanın FŞTÖ puanını 1,73 kat, ekonomik şiddete maruz kalmanın 7,36 kat artırdığı tespit edilmiştir. Bununla birlikte RBSÖ puanındaki bir birimlik artışın, FŞTÖ puanının 0,26 kat artırdığı tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç: Elde ettiğimiz bulgular sonucunda, psikolojik şiddete maruz kalmanın benlik saygısını azalttığı, cinsel ve ekonomik şiddete maruz kalmanın flört şiddeti tutumunu olumsuz etkilediği; benlik saygısındaki azalmanın flört şiddetine yönelik tutumu olumsuz etkilediği söylenebilir. Elde ettiğimiz bulgular doğrultusunda, sağlık çalışanlarının benlik saygısı düşük erkekleri şiddet mağduriyeti açısından taramaları, erkeğe yönelik şiddetin ve flört şiddetinin azaltılmasına yönelik çalışmalar yapılması önerilir.

Anahtar Kelimeler: Şiddet; erkeğe yönelik şiddet; benlik saygısı; flört şiddeti tutumu
ABSTRACT
 Objective: The study was conducted to examine the relationship between self-esteem and dating violence attitudes of male university students who have been exposed to violence in the past. Material and Methods: Our descriptive and cross-sectional study targeted male university students in Türkiye. The sample consisted of 201 unmarried, violence-experienced male university students aged between 18 and 25, selected using the snowball sampling method, which is non-probabilistic but ensures representation of the population. Data were collected using a questionnaire, violence screening form, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES), and Dating Violence Attitude Scale (DVAS). Descriptive statistics, t-tests, Pearson correlation analysis, and multiple linear regression analysis were employed to analyze the data. Results: In our study, it was found that the rate of past exposure to physical violence among male university students was 75.40%, while the rate of exposure to psychological violence was 88.70%. Those exposed to psychological violence, those who experienced violence from siblings, and those who had no previous emotional relationships were found to have statistically significantly higher average scores in RSES (p<0.05). According to the multiple linear regression analysis conducted, it was determined that experiencing sexual violence increased the DVAS score by 1.73 times, and exposure to economic violence increased it by 7.36 times. Furthermore, a one-unit increase in RSES score was found to increase the DVAS score by 0.26. Conclusion: Based on our findings, it can be concluded that experiencing psychological violence decreases self-esteem, exposure to sexual and economic violence negatively affects attitudes towards dating violence, and a decrease in self-esteem negatively affects attitudes towards dating violence. In line with our findings, it is recommended that healthcare professionals screen men with low self-esteem for violence victimization and conduct studies to reduce violence against men and dating violence.
