Publication Metadata only Lived experience in research and publishing(ANP Publishing, 2023) Ceylan, Deniz; School of Medicine; Koç University HospitalN/APublication Metadata only The Turkish version of the Masculine Gender Role Stress Questionnaire: dimensions of fears and their correlates in young adults(KARE PUBL, 2024) Kılçıksız, Can Misel; Bakır, Çiçek Nur; Kaçar, Anıl Şafak; Şar, Vedat; Koç University Research Center for Translational Medicine (KUTTAM) / Koç Üniversitesi Translasyonel Tıp Araştırma Merkezi (KUTTAM); School of Medicine; Graduate School of Health SciencesObjective: Studying Gender Role Stress (GRS) is important to understanding how gender norms and related fears impact individuals' well-being, relationships, and societal dynamics, including gender equality. This study investigated the validity, reliability, and utility of the Masculine Gender Role Stress (MGRS) questionnaire among young adults in Turkiye to obtain a standardized instrument suitable for future research. Method: Participants were recruited from students at three colleges in Istanbul through a convenient online sampling method. All participants completed the MGRS, Experiences of Shame, and Childhood Trauma Questionnaires. Due to gender-specific formulations in several items of the MGRS scale, participants identifying as female were excluded. The final sample comprised 110 male-identified participants and 26 individuals who identified as gender-queer or chose not to declare their gender. Results: Confirmatory factor analyses statistically rejected the MGRS questionnaire's original five-factor structure as shown by Comparative Fit Index. However, an exploratory factor analysis of the current data yielded the most interpretable fivefactor solution, representing fears of subordination, sexual inadequacy, performance failure, emotional expressiveness, and vulnerability. The MGRS questionnaire exhibited significant correlations between shame and childhood trauma scores. The revised version demonstrated excellent internal structure and test-retest consistency. Conclusion: This preliminary study suggests that the Turkish version of the MGRS questionnaire is a reliable and valid instrument for assessing gender role stress in young adults. This tool is expected to be useful in clinical and community research studies on the correlates of gender role stress in Turkiye.Publication Metadata only Somatic symptoms in secondary school students and parental attitudes(Kare Publ, 2015) Karaca, Semra; Celebi, Gizem; Ozvatan, Merve; Timur, Ismet; Unsal, Gul; Onan, Nevin; Oz, Yuksel Can; N/A; Bilen, Zeynettin; Nurse; N/A; Koç University Hospital; N/AObjectives: Epidemiological studies show that 5-48% of children and adolescents often experience somatic complaints. This study investigated somatic symptoms in secondary school students and the attitudes of their parents. Methods: This descriptive study involved 699 secondary school students at three state and five private schools in Kadikoy from October 2013-February 2014. The data were collected using an information form, Child Somatization Inventory and Parent Attitude Scale and were analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis, Pearson correlation analysis and the t-test. Results: The average age of the students was 12.93 +/- 1.06. of the students, 49.9% were female, and 35.3% were in private schools. A significant difference (t=3.53, p=. 002) was found based on the type of school attended with private school students seen more frequently with somatic symptoms (private X= 13.0 +/- 1.25; state X= 10.0 +/- 9.5). There were also differences according to the type of school attended in parental attitude - control/monitoring (t=4.43; p=.003), and in the psychological autonomy subscale (t=2.71, p=.040). Private school students' perception of their parents' attitude were more controlling/supervisory than the public school students (control/supervision; private X= 15.3 +/- 5.1; public X= 13.8 +/- 4.0) and allowing less psychological autonomy than them (private X= 26.7 perpendicular to 4.5; states X= 27.6 perpendicular to 4.3). Parental tolerance was significantly associated with somatic symptoms (t=4.695, p=.001), and students who perceived their parents as tolerant had more somatic symptoms (X= 14: 31 +/- 11.86). Conclusion: This study shows that parental attitudes and somatic symptoms vary as to the type of school. Students had more somatic symptoms when they perceived their parents as tolerant/permitting of those somatic symptoms./ Öz: Amaç: Epidemiyolojik çalışmalar çocuk ve ergenlerin %5-48'inin somatik belirtileri sıklıkla deneyimlediklerini göstermektedir. Bu çalışmada ilköğretim ikinci kademe öğrencilerinde anne-baba tutumları ve somatik belirtiler arasındaki ilişkilerin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır.Gereç ve Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı tipteki çalışmanın örneklemini, Kadıköy'de üç devlet ve beş özel ilköğretim okulunda, Ekim 2013-Şubat 2014 tarihleri arasında ikinci kademede öğrenim gören, araştırmaya katılmayı kabul eden 699 öğrenci oluşturmuştur. Araştırma verileri Bilgi Formu, Çocuk Somatizasyon Envanteri ve Anne-Baba Tutum Ölçeği kullanılarak toplanmış, tanımlayıcı istatistiksel analizler, pearson korelasyon analizi ve t-testi ile değerlendirilmiştir.Bulgular: Öğrencilerin yaş ortalaması 12.93±1.06'dır, %49.9'u kız, %35.3'ü özel okula devam etmektedir. Öğrencilerin cinsiyet, ailede tek çocuk olma, eğitime devam edilen sınıf, anne-baba eğitim ve çalışma durumları ile anne-baba tutumları ve somatik belirtiler açısından anlamlı farklılık bulunmamaktadır (p>0.05). Öğrencilerin devam ettikleri okula göre somatik belirtiler arasında anlamlı fark bulunmuştur (t=3.53; p=.002) ve özel okula devam eden öğrencilerde somatik belirtiler daha sık görülmektedir (özel X=13.0±1.25; devlet X=10.0±9.5). Öğrencilerin devam ettikleri okula göre anne-baba tutumları incelendiğinde; kontrol/denetleme (t=4.43; p=.003) ve psikolojik özerklik alt boyutlarında anlamlı fark bulunmuştur (t=2.71; p=.040), özel okullara devam eden öğrenciler anne- babalarını devlet okullarına devam eden öğrencilere göre daha fazla kontrolcü/denetleyici ve daha az psikolojik özerklik sağlayıcı olarak algılamaktadır (kontrol denetleme; özel X=15.3±5.1; devlet X=13.8 ±4.0 ve psikolojik özerklik özel X=26.7± 4.5; devlet X=27.6±4.3). Ana-baba tutumlarından sadece izin verici/müsamahakar tutum ile somatik belirtiler arasında anlamlı farklılık bulunmuştur (t=4.695; p=.001). Ana-babalarını izin verici/ müsamahakar olarak algılayan öğrencilerde somatik belirtiler daha yüksektir (X=14.31±11.86).Sonuç: Çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre; ana-baba tutumları ve somatik belirtilerin öğrencilerin devam ettikleri okula göre farklı olduğu ve anababalarını izin verici/ müsamahakar olarak algılayanlarda somatik belirtilerin yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir.Publication Metadata only COVID-19 pandemic and mental health concerns: what should we expect?(Klinik Psikiyatri Dergisi, 2020) Çöpür, Mazlum; Çöpür, Sidar; Researcher; School of Medicine; 368625COVID-19 Pandemic and mental health concerns: What should we expect? / Öz: COVID-19 Pandemisi ve psikiyatrik endişeler: Bundan sonraki süreçte ne beklemeliyiz?Publication Metadata only Psychiatry shuffles the cards: toward new subtypes, specifiers, and qualifiers(Kare Publ, 2022) N/A; Şar, Vedat; Faculty Member; School of Medicine; 8542The anonymous tale (my version) of five medical doctors hunting is not far from telling the truth: The physicians saw a bird taking off from the bush and wanted to be sure that it was a duck and not a goose before they shot it. The general practitioner deferred the decision to the specialists. The internist did not want to comment without having a lab test. The surgeon proposed hitting the animal before it was too late. The pathologist warned that an insufficient specimen would not allow a definitive opinion even after a completed action. The psychiatrist was the last resort. After a short silence, she asked: Is what you see what you get?Publication Metadata only An investigation of the psychometric properties of the Turkish versions of the interpersonal needs questionnaire and acquired capability for suicide-fearlessness about death scale(2020) Arslantaş, Hülya; Öztürk, Cennet Şafak; Eskin, Berke; Department of Psychology; Eskin, Mehmet; Faculty Member; Department of Psychology; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; 2210Objective: Suicidal behavior is serious public health problem. Interpersonal Psychological Theory of SuicideIPT tells that feelings of thwarted belongingness and perceived burden someness are composed of two perceptions that make people tend to suicide. But the theory argues that will is not sufficient for occurrence of a suicidal behaviour. Individual must have acquired capability for suicide as well. Recently it is seen that IPT is a theorethical framework that is frequently used in suicide researches. The purpose of this study was to investigate the psychometric properties of the Turkish versions of the Interpersonal Needs Questionnaire (INQ) and Acquired Capability for Suicide Scale -Fearlessness about Death (ACSS-FAD). Method: Data were collected from 409 university students. Results: The Turkish Interpersonal Needs Questionnaire and the Acquired Capability for Suicide- Fearlessness about Death scale demonstrated adequate psychometric properties. Both had high internal consistency and test-retest reliabilities. Discussion: The results of the present study have revealed that the Turkish versions of the Interpersonal Needs Questionnaire (INQ) and Acquired Capability for Suicide Scale-Fearlessness about Death (ACSS-FAD) are reliable and valid instruments for measuring the constructs of the Interpersonal Psychological Theory of suicide. Therefore, we conclude that the two measuring instruments may contribute to the suicidological research and clinical practice in Turkey. / Öz: Amaç: Günümüzde düşünce, girişim ve ölümleri kapsayan intihar davranışları önemli bir halk sağlığı sorunu haline gelmiştir. Kişilerarası Psikolojik İntihar Kuramı (KPİK) engellenmiş ait olma (thwarted belongingness) ve başkalarına yük olma (perceived burden someness) duygularının insanları intihara meyilli/istekli hale getiren iki algıdan oluştuğundan bahsetmektedir. Fakat kuram, bir intihar davranışının ortaya çıkması için isteğin yeterli olmadığını bunun için kişide edinilmiş intihar yeterliliğinin (acquired capability for suicide) de olması gerektiğini öne sürmektedir. Son zamanlarda KPİK'nın intiharbilim alanındaki araştırmalarda sık kullanılan bir kuramsal çerçeve haline geldiği görülmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı kişilerarası psikolojik intihar kuramının yapısal kavramları olan Kişilerarası İhtiyaçlar Anketi (KİA) ve Edinilmiş İntihar Yeterliliği-Ölüm Korkusuzluğu Ölçeğinin (EİY-ÖKÖ) Türkçelerinin psikometrik özelliklerini araştırmaktır. Yöntem: Bu çalışmanın verileri üniversitelerin değişik akademik programlarında öğrenim görmekte olan 409 üniversite öğrencisinden toplanmıştır. Bulgular: Kişilerarası İhtiyaçlar Anketi ve Edinilmiş İntihar Yeterliliği-Ölüm Korkusuzluğu Ölçeğinin Türkçe formunun psikometrik özelliklerinin yeterli düzeyde olduğu bulunmuştur. Söz konusu ölçüm araçlarının iç-tutarlık ve test-tekrar test güvenirliklerinin yeterli olduğu görülmüştür. Sonuç: Bu çalışmadan elde edilen bulgular Kişilerarası İhtiyaçlar Anketi ve Edinilmiş İntihar Yeterliliği-Ölüm Korkusuzluğu Ölçeğinin Türkçesi için geçerli ve güvenilir ölçümler sağlamıştır. Söz konusu ölçüm aracı Türkiye’deki intiharbilim araştırmalarına ve klinik uygulamalara önemli katkı sağlayacaktır.Publication Metadata only What opportunities do European early career psychiatrists have?(Çukurova Üniversitesi, 2016) Ismayilova, Jamila; Gondek, Tomasz M.; Kazakova, Olga; Mogren, Tove; Smirnova, Daria; Pinto Da Costa, Mariana; N/A; Kılıç, Özge; Doctor; N/A; Koç University Hospital; 167890N/APublication Metadata only Professional containment methods used in psychiatry wards: justifications for their utilization, types, international practices, and perceptions(Türkiye Sinir ve Ruh Sağlığı Derneği, 2010) Bilgin, Hülya; N/A; Kerman, Kader Tekkaş; Faculty Member; School of Nursing; 34111Objective: The aim of this review is to examine the literature on professional containment methods, to draw attention to this important topic concerning which relevant research remains limited in our country and to offer professionals the opportunity to make evaluations utilizing holistic perspectives. Method: Relevant, obtainable studies published within the last 15 years, but primarily after the year 2000, were included in this retrospective literature review. For this purpose a literature search was conducted via-internet based search engines, including Pubmed, Science Direct, Medline, Psychinfo, the ULAKBIM Turkish Medicine Index and the Turkish Psychiatry Index, using the keywords containment methods, psychiatry, aggression, conflict, restraint, seclusion and mental health hospitals, in different combinations. Results: According to the literature, professional containment methods are defined as methods used to prevent harm to patients or others as a result of the patient's conflict-provoking behaviour (agression, absconding, rule breaking, refusing medication etc.) in psychiatric wards. These methods include the use of mechanical/physical restraint, seclusion, compulsory intramuscular sedation, observation, and pro re nata (prn) medication. The type and frequency of use, views or attitudes to methods varies between different countries. Conclusion: Although professional containment methods are an effective management strategy, they may cause physical and psychological damage to both patient and staff So the use of these methods in psychiatric care settings remains controversial and an ongoing source of legal and ethical dilemmas. Despite discussions, the containment methods used in the past remain present as a part of psychiatric treatment and care. There is a need for standard practice guidelines to ensure the security of patients and staff and to use those methods effectively and correctly. In conclusion, it is necessary that health care professionals be informed about preparing the new guidelines and using professional containment methods effectively.Publication Metadata only Developing therapeutic alternatives for treatment-resistant bipolar depression: the role of riluzole(Galenos Yayınevi, 2020) Çöpür, Mazlum; Çöpür, Sidar; Researcher; School of Medicine; 368625N/APublication Metadata only Emergence of stuttering in an attention deficit hyperactivity disorder patient treated with methylphenidate(Kare Yayıncılık, 2018) Çöpür, Mazlum; N/A; Çöpür, Sidar; Researcher; School of Medicine; 368625N/A
