(Cumhuriyet Univ Tıp Fak Psikiyatri Anabilim Dalı, 2014) Dural, Seda; Cetinkaya, Hakan; Can, Seda; Kaya, Alp Giray; Hunler, Olga Selin
Objective: The goal of the study was to investigate the role of heterosexual and homosexual infidelity scenarios by two infidelity types (sexual versus emotional) on emotional responses (anger, disgust, surprise, sad, and jealousy) of male and female participants. Methods: A total of 881 participants (449 males and 432 females) were assigned to one of two infidelity conditions formed by two scenarios as heterosexual and homosexual infidelity, and they were asked to indicate which infidelity type would make them more distressed, sexual or emotional. Also the participants were required to choose their predominant emotion that they would have felt by the type of infidelity they found more distressing. The data were analyzed by exploratory multi-way frequency analysis that allows examining the multi-way interactions among categorical variables of interest. By employing the analysis, a hierarchical log-linear model of infidelity driven responses for four categorical variables was produced. Results: Although, the results generally were consistent with the infidelity literature, additionally the present data indicated a sex difference in the responses to the scenario types as a function of whether the act of infidelity results in a progeny. Discussion: The results were discussed in the framework of the emotional responses which were counted in the present study along with jealousy, in terms of their motivational effects on behavioral outputs of type of infidelity faced.

Psychological Maltreatment of Women Inventory Short Form - Turkish Adaptation
(Klinik Psikiyatri Dergisi, 2017) Ersoy, Nevra Cem; Hunler, Olga Selin; Namer, Yudit
Objective: This study aims to adapt a short form of Psychological Maltreatment of Women Inventory (Tolman 1989) to Turkish and to examine the psychometric properties of the Turkish short form. Method: Participants were 852 women between the ages of 2355 (32.12 +/- 10.97 years), who were either married (48%) or in a romantic relationship (47%) during data collection. The questionnaire was comprised of Psychological Maltreatment of Women Inventory (PMWI), Submissive Acts Scale (SAS) and demographic information form. Principal Components Analysis was used for confirmatory construct validity, and Pearson correlation coefficients between SAS and PMWI total scores were calculated for discriminatory validity. Cronbach-Alpha internal consistency coefficients and split-half reliability were measured to establish internal consistency. Results: The three-factor (Restriction/Blaming/Threat; Emotional-Verbal Violence; Responsibility) structure explained 64.3% of variance. Internal consistency coefficient (Cronbach-Alpha) was found to be .93; split half reliability was found to be .90 and .87 for the first and second halves, respectively, and the correlation between the two halves were found to be .71. Conclusion: The Turkish short form of Psychological Maltreatment of Women Inventory is a valid and reliable tool to measure psychological maltreatment experienced by married women, or women in romantic relationships.
