Tam elli yıl önce, henüz Kuğulu Park kavşağı bile yapılmamışken, Ankara’da gençliğe adım atmış bir yatılı lise öğrencisi olarak bugünün gençleri için anlamlı neler söyleyebilirim? Şöyle, kuşak farklarına dayanıklı bir eylemle, dedikodu ile başlayalım; sizin için söylenenleri biliyor musunuz? Örneğin, hemencilik, anında sonuç alma arzusu, alamadığında vazgeçme ve beklemeye pek tahammül edememe ya da kendi keyfine düşkünlük gibi davranışların yeni kuşaklarda daha sık ve yaygın

Abstract: Grief and dissociation after traumatic exposures are among the most important predictors of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This article introduces the Traumatic Dissociation and Grief Scale (TDGS), a 23-item measure easily adminis- tered. The TDGS, the Child PTSD-Reaction Index (CPTSD-RI), and a questionnaire concerning risk factors related to the event (losses, injury, and witnessing death and injuries) were administered to school-aged children who had been

COVID-19 pandemisi hayatlarımızda köklü değişiklikler yarattı. Evler okul oldu. Anne-babaların çoğu bir yandan işlerini evden sürdürürken, bir yandan çocuk bakımı sorumluluklarını yürütmeye çalıştılar. Bu bakım sorumlulukları içinde evdeki uzaktan okulu takip etmek gibi işler de vardı. Öğretmenler ortaya çıkan bu yepyeni koşullarda müfredatı tamamlamak, öğrencileri psikolojik ve sosyal olarak geleceğe hazırlamak gibi bir görevi pek de iyi tanımadıkları teknolojik olanaklarda

Abstract Objective : In April 2012, the Turkish national education system was modified, and the compulsory school age of entry (first grade) was redefined as a minimum of 60 months and a maximum of 66 months (replacing the former minimum criterion of 72 months). In this study, we hypothesized that students starting school before 72 months (the previous age standard for the first grade) may experience (1) a greater number of symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder

Abstract Background: Decision-making in Obsessive Compulsive Disorder has typically been investigated in the adult population.Computational approaches have recently started to get integrated into these studies. However, decision-making research in pediatric OCD populations is scarce. Methods: We investigated latent decision processes in 21 medication-free pediatric OCD patients and 23 healthy control participants.We hypothesized that OCD patients would be more cautious and le

Prodrome: An early, nonspecific set of symptoms that indicate the onset of disease before specific, diagnosable symptoms occur’ (National Research Council and Institute of Medicine., 2009) Mental, behavioral, and developmental disorders with childhood onset are a major public-health concern(WHO, 2005). Based on the National Comorbidity Survey Replication study, about half of all Americans will meet the criteria for a DSM-IV disorder sometime in their life, with first onset u

Mothers may be among the best diagnosticians of developmental and behavioral problems in young children. If not for the positive predictive power of the mother’s diagnostic ability, few kids would make it to the child and adolescent psychiatrist (‘help-seeking’) unless they really got into trouble. Mothers can sense that there is something wrong associated with a burden (‘impairment’) despite their being naı¨ve in the sense of medical diagnostic algorithms, while we, as docto

Abstract If subjects are asked to indicate the midpoint of a horizontal line, they tend to bisect it left of the center, a phenomenon called ‘pseudoneglect’. Assuming that this task evokes visuospatial processes, the left bias is generally considered to arise from a right-hemispheric activation. Numerous factors affect pseudoneglect. Although, only few studies have examined the influence of sex in visual line bisection, most of theses studies reported no significant main effe

Professionals who search the Medline database for publications in the areas of ‘‘trauma/disaster’’ and ‘‘school interventions’’ encounter disappointing results: only a few articles match the requested terms. The September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, however, have produced reports on several initiatives that assess the postevent responses of school-age children as a primary step toward allocation of resources and future interventions <1,2>. The situation before September 11 re

Abstract Objective: To examine the distribution of parent- and teacher-rated ADHD symptoms in a Turkish community sample to identify children at high risk for ADHD and to explore the psychosocial correlates of these high-risk children. Method: An 18-item SNAP-IV (Swanson, Nolan, and Pelham) and a three-item impairment scale were completed by parents and teachers on 3,110 children between 7 and 14 years of age from three public schools in Istanbul. Results: Using various case

The relationship between motor coordination and social behavior problems in adolescents with Attention-Deficit/ Hyperactivity Disorder ABSTRACT: Objective: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common neurodevelopmental childhood disorders and 30-50% of individuals with ADHD are reported to also have a co-morbid motor coordination problem. This study aimed to examine motor coordination skills, and the correlation between motor coordination problem

Background: Child survivors of a catastrophic earthquake in Turkey were evaluated three and a half years after the event, and three years after a sub-group participated in a teacher-mediated intervention developed by the authors. The goal of this follow-up study was to determine the long-term effectiveness of the original intervention. Methods: Subjects who participated in the intervention were compared with a control group of children similar in terms of demographics, risk a

Abstract Parent management training programme was prepared by Research Units on Pediatric Psychopharmacology and Psychosocial Interventions (RUPP) Autism Network based on ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis). The programme aims to prevent or decrease the problem behavior and to bring the children with autism in positive behaviors by educating their families. The controlled randomized clinical research of RUPP has determined that Parent Managament Training (PMT) have provided meani

Abstract Background: Dimensional Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale (DY-BOCS) is a promising scale for assessing frequency and severity of symptom dimensions. The main objective of the study was to assess the psychometric properties of the DY-BOCS in a large sample of children and adolescents from Turkey. Methods: We studied 143 children and adolescents, 7–18 years, with well characterized DSM-IV-R OCD, ascertained from seven collaborating university or state hospital site
