This study aimed to adapt COVID-19 Related Psychological Distress Scale (CORPD) into Turkish and evaluate its psychometric properties. Participants were assessed across the CORPD Turkish form, ...Symptom Checklist-90-Revised anxiety subscale, Fear of COVID-19 Scale, and the Brief Resilience Scale. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses confirmed a two-factor model in different subsamples, with satisfactory reliability. The total and subscale scores of the CORPD Turkish Form were positively correlated with anxiety and fear of COVID-19, and negatively correlated with resilience. The findings suggest that the CORPD Turkish form is a valid and reliable measure to assess the COVID-19 related psychological distress.

Memorializes Robert F. McMorris (1934-2020). McMorris was a professor of educational psychology in the Department of Educational and Counseling Psy chology at the University at Albany, State ...University of New York (SUNY Albany). He was an expert in educational and psychological measurement and evaluation, known for his contributions on answer changing in test taking and the use of humor in teaching and testing. With David A. Payne, McMorris coedited what was hailed as an "out standing anthology"-
-which made two editions, in 1967 and in 1975. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2021 APA, all rights reserved).
Psikoloji literatüründe haset ilk olarak psikanalitik yaklaşım tarafından çalışılmaya başlanmakla beraber, bu çalışmalar kavramsallaştırma ve tanımlama ile sınırlı kalmış ve ölçüm çalışmaları ancak ...son yıllarda gerçekleştirilmeye başlanmıştır. Literatür taramalarında bulunan diğer dillerde geliştirilmiş ölçekler incelendiğinde, yaygın olarak kullanılan ölçeklerin haseti sadece kötücül boyutuyla ele aldığı ve Türkçede gıpta olarak nitelendirilen, hasetin güdüleyici, olumlu boyutunu ölçmediği görülmüştür. İngilizce olarak 2015 yılında geliştirilen BeMaS (Benign and Malicious Envy Scale) Haset ve Gıpta Ölçeği bu anlamda hasetin hem olumlu, hem de olumsuz boyutunu ölçen ilk ölçektir. Bu çalışmada, belirtilen haset ölçeğinin Türkçe uyarlama, güvenilirlik ve geçerlilik çalışmaları gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yöntem: Dilsel eşdeğerlik çalışmasında 44 İngilizce okutmanına, üç hafta ara ile Türkçe ve İngilizce formlar uygulanmıştır. Güvenilirlik ve geçerlilik analizleri için uygulanan anketlere katılan 422 kişi 18-65 yaşları arasında, katılımcıların %64’ü kadın ve yaş ortalaması 32.92’dir. Bulgular: Analizlerde kullanılan t testi ve Pearson korelasyon sonuçları dilsel eşdeğerliğin sağlandığını göstermektedir. Kullanılan test-tekrar test, Cronbach alfa iç tutarlılık ve madde analizleri de ölçeğin güvenilirliğinin yüksek olduğunu göstermektedir. Geçerlilik analizleri için uygulanan açımlayıcı ve çoklu özellik çoklu yöntem bulguları ölçeğin iki faktörlü bir yapıda ve kabul edilebilir düzeyde uyum indekslerini sağladığını göstermektedir. Ölçeğin yakınsama geçerliliği için haset ve gıpta ile sosyal karşılaştırma yönelimi arasındaki korelasyon incelenmiş ve anlamlı bir ilişki elde edilmiştir. Ölçeğin ayırt edici geçerliliği için yapılan analizlerde haset boyutunun nevrotizm ve benlik saygısı ile pozitif yönlü, şükür ile negatif yönlü anlamlı ilişkileri olduğu görülmüştür. Tartışma: Bu araştırmanın bulguları BeMaS-T Haset ve Gıpta Ölçeğinin yetişkinlerde haset ve gıpta eğilimlerini ölçebilen, dilsel açıdan eşdeğerliği olan, güvenilir ve geçerli bir ölçüm aracı olduğunu göstermektedir.

Çocuk suçluluğu dünyada ve Türkiye’de giderek artan bir sorun oluşturmaktadır. Türkiye İstatistik Kurumu (TÜİK) 2017 verilerine göre1 güvenlik birimlerine gelen veya getirilen çocuk sayısı 2012 ...yılında 248 bin iken, %36 artış göstererek 2016’da 333 bine ulaşmıştır. Çocuk suçluluğu hukuk, sosyoloji ve psikoloji gibi alanlardan birçok uzman tarafından farklı bakış açılarıyla incelenmektedir.
A defining feature of mental health courts (MHCs) is the requirement that enrollees appear periodically for status review hearings before the MHC judge. Although the research base on these specialty ...courts is growing, MHC appearances have yet to be examined. In the present study, the authors followed more than 400 MHC clients from four courts. We examined the number of court appearances that were mandated versus attended, the number of bench warrants issued, and the proportion of court appearances that were made in-custody versus out-of-custody. Finally, we describe and report on the proportion of clients at each court who had graduated, had been terminated, or who were still in the court one year following enrollment.
In addition to school and family, out-of-school time context can provide important opportunities in the development of children and adolescents. In order to examine the students' use of out-of-school ...time better, activity diversity, intensity, and profiles should be studied. The aim of this study is to identify different time use profiles among high school students through person-centered cluster analysis as well as variable-centered descriptive statistics. A total of 180 students, 93 female and 87 male, from the tenth and eleventh grades of a public high school in İstanbul participated in the study. A personal information form and a time use questionnaire prepared by the researcher were administered to the students. According to average time use, the first three activities with the highest values in weekly total time were (1) using internet or social media, (2) studying, and (3) watching television. The time that students devote to the activities was related to the day of the week, gender, grade level, academic achievement, and family income. Three different profiles emerged as a result of time use of the students and these profiles differed in terms of gender, grade level, and academic achievement. The results indicate the need for a closer and in-depth examination and evaluation of the out-of-school time context, which plays an important role in the development of students.
Adverse effects of COVID-19 are seen not only on the physical health of infected individuals but also on their subjective well-being. Sudden changes in social lives, lockdowns, and shifts towards ...online education have had a negative impact on many people, especially university students. As part of an international study, the current study focused on the well-being of students at Turkish universities in relation to social contact, academic satisfaction, and COVID-19 knowledge. A total of 7363 students from nine universities (86.6% from state universities, 71.04% female, and 73.52% at bachelor’s level) participated in an online survey. Results revealed that females had lower levels of subjective well-being and academic satisfaction. According to a mediation model in the study, the relationship between social contact and well-being was mediated by academic satisfaction and COVID-19 knowledge. Our findings can guide future researchers, mental health professionals, universities, and policymakers to understand and improve subjective well-being of university students.
The self-concept maintenance theory holds that many people will cheat in order to maximize self-profit, but only to the extent that they can do so while maintaining a positive self-concept. Mazar, ...Amir, and Ariely (2008, Experiment 1) gave participants an opportunity and incentive to cheat on a problem-solving task. Prior to that task, participants either recalled the Ten Commandments (a moral reminder) or recalled 10 books they had read in high school (a neutral task). Results were consistent with the self-concept maintenance theory. When given the opportunity to cheat, participants given the moral-reminder priming task reported solving 1.45 fewer matrices than did those given a neutral prime (Cohen’s d = 0.48); moral reminders reduced cheating. Mazar et al.’s article is among the most cited in deception research, but their Experiment 1 has not been replicated directly. This Registered Replication Report describes the aggregated result of 25 direct replications (total N = 5,786), all of which followed the same preregistered protocol. In the primary meta-analysis (19 replications, total n = 4,674), participants who were given an opportunity to cheat reported solving 0.11 more matrices if they were given a moral reminder than if they were given a neutral reminder (95% confidence interval = −0.09, 0.31). This small effect was numerically in the opposite direction of the effect observed in the original study (Cohen’s d = −0.04).
