Materials and Methods: The sample of the study, which was conducted with a descriptive and correlational design, consisted of 140 women over the age of 18. Data were collected with the “Introductory Information Form”, “Attitude Towards Violence in Close Relationships Scale-Revised Form”, “Toronto Alexithymia Scale-20 (TAÖ-20)” and “Depression and Happiness Scale Short Form (DHSSF)”. Results: The average age of the women participating in the study was determined as 25.06±6.69. Women; It was determined that 38.6% had university education, 29.3% were working, and 64.3% had witnessed physical/emotional violence during childhood. It was determined that the women participating in the study had an average of 2.15±1.28 romantic relationship experiences. Women; 39.3% stated that they had violent arguments 1-2 times a month during their relationships, 30% had long-term resentments with their partners, and 29.3% stated that their partners limited communication to punish them. The participants' TAÖ-20 total score was 52.63+9.95 and DHSSF total score was 12.98+1.74 (range: 6-17). It was determined that low income level and exposure to emotional violence significantly increased both acceptance of violence and alexithymic attitude. It was determined that exposure to violence in the current relationship increased the level of acceptance of violence, and long-term resentment with the partner increased the alexithymic attitude. Conclusion: As a result of the study findings, it was determined that women exposed to intimate partner violence were borderline alexithymic. It was determined that as the level of acceptance of violence among women exposed to intimate partner violence increased, their alexithymia levels also increased.

In the study, the General Self-Efficacy Scale was utilized as well as the Body Liking Scale. The data were tested with descriptive statistics, independent sample T-test, one-way analysis of variance ANOVA, Pearson correlation test and simple linear regression analysis. The findings indicate that the average body liking score of the participants is high and their general self-efficacy levels are at an average level. At the same time, it was determined that gender, age, educational status and number of weekly exercise sessions significantly differentiated body appreciation and general self-efficacy. As a result, it was determined that self-efficacy had an effect of 22% in explaining body liking and both measurement tools showed a positive and significant relationship.
