"A Critical Review of the Joker Movie in the Context of Mahler's Separation-İndividuatin theory and PTSD", ETÜ Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü Dergisi, Vol. 13, pp. 122-148.A Critical Review of the Joker Movie in the Context of Mahler's Separation-İndividuatin theory and PTSD(2021) Güven, Ayşenur; Işık, Selin; Oya, Sera; Yaşar, Nuray; Topcu Bulut, Merve; Çankaya Üniversitesi, Fen - Edebiyat Fakültesi, Psikoloji BölümüBu çalışmada Mahler’in ayrılma-bireyleşme kuramı çerçevesinde Joker filmindeki Arthur Fleck karakterinin gelişim evreleri hakkında çıkarımlar yapılması, ilk 36 aylık deneyimlerinin Arthur’un duygu, düşünce ve kişilik gelişimindeki etkilerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Mahler’in kuramına göre bireyin ilk altı ayı normal otistik ve normal ortakyaşamsal olmak üzere, birbirinin devamı ve tamamlayıcısı niteliğindeki iki kritik evreden oluşmaktadır. Devamında ise farklılaşma, alıştırma, yeniden yakınlaşma ve bireyliğin pekişmesi ve coşkusal nesne sürekliliğinin başlangıcı olmak üzere dört farklı altevreden oluşan ayrılma-bireyleşme süreci gelmektedir. Kişilik oluşumu sürecinde bu altevreler büyük önem taşımaktadır. Arthur’un narsistik ve madde kötüye kullanım tanısı almış olan annesi ile ilişkisi, baba kavramının eksikliği, çevresiyle olan etkileşimi ve toplum içinde görünür olma arzusu üzerinde durulmuştur. Çocukluk çağında istismar ve ihmale uğrayan, yetişkinlik çağında ise sistematik olarak psikolojik şiddete maruz kalmaya devam eden Arthur'un örseleyici yaşam öyküsü kimlik oluşumunu, sosyal uyumunu, kişilik gelişimini olumsuz etkilemiş ve örselenme sonrası gerginlik bozukluğu (ÖSGB) belirtilerinin oluşmasına yol açmıştır. Bahsedilen bilgiler ışığında Arthur Fleck karakteri, DSM-5 örselenme sonrası gerginlik bozukluğu tanı kriterlerinden faydalanılarak Mahler’in ayrılma-bireyleşme kuramı çerçevesinde incelenmiştir.Item Citation Count: Scharbert, Julian; ...et al.

Since the 20th century, research on feeding and eating disorders has tried to give some explanations of various eating behaviors, such as starving because of thoughts about be-ing overweight or non-stop binge eating by the individual, relational, or social factors. However, they are inadequate to fully explain the psychopathological and cognitive factors underlying feeding and eating disorders. The complex behavioral pattern behind eating disorders can lead to impairments in people’s attention, memory, and metacognitive processes. Certain higher-order cognitive mechanisms such as problem solving, reasoning, and decision making are impaired in individuals suffering from eating disorders, especially anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge eating disorder, compared to healthy individuals. Several researches aimed to find out evidence that may recover these impairments or that may lead to preventive measures for the risk of developing eating disorders. The aim of the current study is to examine the researches on the effects of eating disorders on individuals’ executive functions and memory processes and to explore the links between eating disorders, executive func-tions, and memory.Item Citation Count: Çobanoğlu, Fatma Öykü; Kaynak, H.

"An Investigation of the Differences in the Dark Triad and the Big Five Personality Traits Across Majors",Kalem Eğitim ve İnsan Bilimleri Dergisi, Vol. 10, No. 2, pp. 465-484.An Investigation of the Differences in the Dark Triad and the Big Five Personality Traits Across Majors(2019) Göncü Köse, Aslı; Ekren, Buse; 166202; Çankaya Üniversitesi, Fen - Edebiyat Fakültesi, Psikoloji BölümüThe Dark Triad (DT) personality traits include interrelated personality constructs which are Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy, and research has shown that individuals who are high on the DT personality traits tend to choose occupations that provide outcomes compatible with these traits. Supporting this reasoning, the DT is suggested to have impacts on major choices of university students. Previous research has also shown that the Big Five (BF) personality traits influenced educational choices. The main aim of the current study was to examine whether or not self-selection based on these personality characteristics predicted career choices. Data was collected from 659 (359 female) newly enrolled students in seven academic majors (i.e., psychology, law, economics/business, engineering, political science, medicine, and education) in Turkey. Mean scores of the groups were compared using two (gender) by seven (major) analysis of variance with the DT and BF personality traits as the dependent variables. The results revealed that Machiavellianism scores of economics/business and engineering students were significantly higher than those of psychology students. In addition, psychopathy scores of engineering, economics/business, and political science students were higher than those of psychology students. Neuroticism scores of students from psychology departments were higher than those of engineering, economics/business, and political science students. Law and education students’ neuroticism scores were also higher than those of students from engineering and economics/business departments. Finally, interaction effects of major and gender were significant for openness to experience and conscientiousness. The findings are discussed regarding theoretical and practical implications along with suggestions for future research.Item Citation Count: Göncü Köse, Aslı; Ekren, Buse (2019).

When looking at the antecedents of PSMU, being young has been found to be a risk factor for PSMU. In addition to the benefits of technological advances in education and training, rapid technological developments may also result in problematic behaviors, especially among children and young. Recently, possibilities brought by technology and more widespread use of technology by young people have created a new concept, namely, cyberbullying. The present study aims to examine the effects of attachment anxiety and avoidance on PSMU and cyberbullying as with the partial mediating effects of the Dark Triad personality traits, angry rejection sensitivity, and anxious rejection sensitivity among adolescents. In general, the findings supported the proposed theoretical model. The results are discussed in terms of theoretical and practical implications along with suggestions for future research.Item Citation Count: Kaynak, Hande, "Are General Intelligence and Implicit Memory Related?: The Effect of Age ", Hacettepe Üniversitesi Edebiyat Fakültesi Dergisi, Vol. 36, No. 2, pp. 198-208, (2019).Are General Intelligence and Implicit Memory Related?: The Effect of Age(2019) Kaynak, Hande; 101097; Çankaya Üniversitesi, Fen - Edebiyat Fakültesi, Psikoloji BölümüThis study investigated the relationship between general intelligence and implicit memory performance in conjunction with aging. Data have been collected from 95 volunteers (49 young-46 older adults). General intelligence was measured by the Raven Standard Progressive Matrices (RSPM) test. Participants’ implicit memory performance was measured by the Word Stem Completion (WSC) task, in which the participants were presented with first three letters of a word and asked to complete this stem with the first word that comes to their mind. Explicit memory performance was also measured to be able to make a comparison with implicit memory performance and to document the differentiation between implicit and explicit memory. Although the same WSC task was used to measure implicit and explicit memory performance separately, the different instructions were used to deduce the different memory types. According to the results of factorial ANOVA, the main effect of age on general intelligence score was found to be statistically significant. After running further analyses by Pearson product-moment correlation coefficients, results indicated that RSPM test total correct score had a tendency to decrease with increasing age and RSPM test completion time had a tendency to increase with aging. Results also showed that implicit WSC task score and RSPM test total correct score were positively correlated. Similarly, explicit WSC task score and RSPM test total correct score were positively correlated, too. However, RSPM test completion time did not differ depending on implicit and explicit memory performances which were measured by WSC task. The present study indicated the relation between implicit WSC task and general intelligence. Within this context, this study is important to draw attention to the contribution of implicit memory measurement which is in the shadow of traditional explicit memory measurements to general intelligence, especially in older population.Item Citation Count: Kaynak, Hande (2019).

An Overview of Social Media Addiction among Adolescents(2021) Demircioğlu, Zeynep Işıl; Göncü Köse, Aslı; 166202; Çankaya Üniversitesi, Fen - Edebiyat Fakültesi, Psikoloji BölümüBelongingness and interpersonal communication are among the most essential human needs. However, the ways individuals satisfy these needs change with the advances in technology. Especially with the increase of internet usage, social media platforms became the primary source that satisfies these needs of individuals. However, despite of its contribution to social communication, recent research also revealed the negative consequences of social media use, especially those of social media addiction. Social media addiction (SMA) is defined as possessing a high motivation or inner tendency to use social media to an extent that it leads to dysfunctional outcomes such as failure in work/academic performance, decline in psychological well-being, or breakdown in social relationships. As an initial step for prevention programs, identifying the antecedents and the protective factors for SMA is as important as revealing its consequences. In the present chapter, characteristics of SMA, along with antecedents and consequences of SMA among adolescents are summarized. Furthermore, future directions for SMA research, practical implications and intervention strategies indicated in the literature to prevent SMA among adolescents are presented.Item Citation Count: Dönmez, Ali, "Askeri akademi savaş beden eğitimi programının teknolojik imkan ve kaabiliyetler açısından analizi", Spormetre Beden Eğitimi ve Spor Bilimleri Dergisi, Vol. 8, No. 4, pp. 163-167, (2010).Askeri akademi savaş beden eğitimi programının teknolojik imkan ve kaabiliyetler açısından analizi(2010) Dönmez, Ali; 173556; Çankaya Üniversitesi, Fen-Edebiyat Fakültesi, Psikoloji BölümüGelişen ve değişen teknolojiler her alanda olduğu gibi Beden Eğitimi ve Spor alanında da etkisini göstermektedir. Günümüzde atletik performansı artırmak için kullanılan malzemeden, tesise kadar her alanda yenilikleri takip etmek bir ihtiyaç olmuştur. Bu çalışmanın amacı Askeri Akademi Savaş Beden Eğitimi programının teknolojik imkân ve kabiliyetler açısından etkinliğinin analizi yapmak ve mevcut programı iyileştirmeye yönelik önerileri ortaya çıkarmaktır. Öncelikle mevcut uygulanmakta olan programla ve kullanılan tesislerle ilgili araştırma yapılarak bilgi toplanmıştır. Mevcut durum ortaya konulduktan sonra BES Grup Başkanlığı'nda görevli personel ile yapılan anket ve görüşmelerle, onların programın etkinliği ve tesislerin yeterliliği ile ilgili düşünceleri saptanmıştır. Yapılan araştırmalar sonucunda mevcut programın BES hedeflerine ulaşmada yeterli olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır. Başarı yüzdesinin % 96,5'e ulaşması da bunu göstermektedir. Yapılan görüşmelerde öğretim görevlilerinin % 22.7'si programın yetersiz olduğunu belirtmiş ve bunun da sebebi ders saatlerinin az ve öğrencilerin motivasyonunun düşük olmasına bağlanmıştır. Ayrıca yapılan görüşme ve incelemeler sonucunda Askeri Akademi spor tesislerinin spor branşları çeşitliliği yönünden yeterli olduğu, ancak kullanım kapasitesi ve teknolojik yönden yetersiz olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır.Item Citation Count: Tuna, Ezgi; Balci, Seyma, "Associated Factors of Psychological Symptoms Among Unemployed Turkish Adults: The Role of Personality Factors and Rumination", Psychological Reports, (2019).Associated Factors of Psychological Symptoms Among Unemployed Turkish Adults: The Role of Personality Factors and Rumination(Sage Publications INC, 2019-11) Tuna, Ezgi; Şeyma, Balcı; 163887; Çankaya Üniversitesi, Fen - Edebiyat Fakültesi, Psikoloji BölümüUnemployment has been associated with adverse mental health outcomes including depression and suicide. In the last decades, unemployment rates have increased substantially in Turkey; yet, factors and mechanisms that play a role in experiencing psychological symptoms among unemployed individuals are not well understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of personality characteristics on psychological symptoms among unemployed Turkish adults and to test the mediating role of rumination as a dysfunctional cognitive strategy. The sample consisted of 217 unemployed Turkish adults who completed self-report measures on neuroticism, external locus of control, rumination, and psychological symptoms. The results of the structural equation modeling indicated that rumination partially mediated the relationship between personality variables (i.e., neuroticism and external locus of control) and psychological symptoms, thus verifying the hypothesis of the study. The direct paths from trait neuroticism and external locus of control to psychological symptoms were also significant. Results revealed that a tendency to attribute future outcomes to external factors and an increased tendency to experience negative emotions are associated with engaging passively in rumination, which in turn predicts psychological symptoms. Interventions are suggested to focus on effective coping strategies along with increasing individuals' perceived control over life and future.Item Citation Count: Genç Aksaray, Sevgi; Özçelik, Erol.
