Article Investigation of Glass Ceiling Syndrome Among Radiation Professionals: a Comparative Analysis(Dokuz Eylul Univ inst Health Sciences, 2025-05-31) Şişman, Gizem; Çilengiroğlu, Özgül Vupa; Alkan, TurkanBackground and Purpose: This study investigates the perception of the glass ceiling syndrome among radiology, nuclear medicine, and radiation oncology technicians in healthcare institutions in Turkey. Methods: A comparative approach was used to examine the prevalence and impact of the glass ceiling on female workers. Data was collected via questionnaires from 311 participants in Turkey, and analyzed using descriptive statistics, chi-square analysis, and independent sample tests. Results: The results indicate that 78.1% of the participants were women, 64% were medical imaging technicians and 65.3% were employed in private institutions. A significant difference was found in the total and subscale scores of the glass ceiling scale (excluding mentoring) based on gender (p<0.05). Conclusion: This study enhances understanding of gender dynamics among radiation workers and highlights the need for targeted interventions to address the glass ceiling syndrome. The findings provide key insights for promoting workforce equity and organizational development in healthcare institutions.Article Kısmi Gözlemlenebilir Çok Bileşenli Sistemler için Bakım Politikalarının Pekiştirmeli Derin Öğrenme Yöntemleri ile Belirlenmesi(Pamukkale Univ, 2025) Karabağ, OktayBu çalışmada, kısmi gözlemlenebilir çok bileşenli sistemler için bakım/onarım kararları incelenmiştir. Bu tip sistemler genellikle servis sağlayıcının uzakta olduğu koşullarda işletilmekte ve bileşenlerin aşınma seviyeleri genellikle sensörler yardımı ile tam olarak izlenememektedir. Rüzgâr türbinleri, bu tarz sistemlere birebir uyan bir örnek oluşturmaktadır. İlgili sistemlerde, servis sağlayıcı ne zaman bakım/onarım yapacağına, bakım kararı ile birlikte hangi parçaları bakım noktasına sevk edeceğine ve bakım noktasındaki incelemesinin ardından hangi sistem bileşenlerinin değiştirilmesi gerektiğine karar vermektedir. Çalışmamızda, bahsi geçen bu komplike karar problemi kısmi gözlemlenebilir Markov karar süreci olarak modellenmiş ve ilgili nümerik çözümler aktör kritik pekiştirmeli öğrenme yöntemi kullanılarak elde edilmiştir. Yaptığımız nümerik çalışmalar, pekiştirmeli öğrenme algoritması ile elde edilen çözümlerin pratikte ve literatürde yaygın olarak kullanılan sezgisel bakım/onarım politikalarına kıyasla daha iyi sonuçlar verdiğini göstermiştir. Bazı durumlarda, bu çözümlerin ortalamada %10-%15 düzeyinde bir iyileştirme sağladığı gözlemlenmiştir. Ayrıca, düzeltici bakım maliyeti, acil sipariş maliyeti ve fazla yedek parçayı geri döndürme maliyeti arttıkça, pekiştirmeli öğrenme algoritması ile elde edilen çözümlerin diğer sezgisel politikalara kıyasla daha fazla avantaj sağladığı da belirlenmiştir.Article Second Order Latent Growth Models and Measurement Equivalence(Turkish Education Assoc, 2011) Dural, Seda; Somer, Oya; Korkmaz, Mediha; Can, Seda; Ogretmen, Tuncay; Çetinkaya, Seda DuralResearch problems related to individuals' behaviors and attitudes requires examining inevitable changes over time. Because learning by nature implies change, analysis of longitudinal data becomes an important topic especially in the field of education. In this article, linear changes of a particular attribute over time was studied in the framework of the second order latent growth models by using data generated from Monte Carlo simulation. All analyses were performed by using Mplus 5.1 software. Related Mplus syntaxes were introduced and the interpretation of the model parameters was discussed. Additionally, it was explained how to study measurement equivalence in these models. Analyses were performed in three steps: (1) basic latent growth model, (2) latent growth model with weak measurement equivalence, and (3) strong measurement equivalence.Article Citation - Scopus: 2The Effect of Derogation Strategies Used by Females in Intrasexual Competition on Males' Mate Preferences(Turkish Psychologists Assoc, 2010) Dural, Seda; Karasar, Asu; Cetinkaya, Hakan; Çetinkaya, Seda DuralThis study investigated the effect of derogation strategies used by females in intrasexual competition on males' mate preferences. For this purpose, a total of four studies, one of them being a preliminary study, were conducted. In the preliminary study, a measurement tool including derogation strategies used by females in intrasexual competition was developed. The first study was conducted to examine which derogation strategies were used more frequently by females in intrasexual competition. Results showed that females used derogation strategies related to promiscuity and infidelity of their rivals more frequently than derogation strategies related to appearance of their rivals. The second study investigated the derogation strategies affecting males' decisions in mate preference. Findings showed that males were affected by derogation strategies including promiscuity and infidelity more than derogation strategies including appearance. The third study examined whether the results of the second study changed according to the relationship type (e.g., long term or short term) planned by males. The results of the multi-sample confirmatory factor analysis with mean structures indicated that there was no significant difference between long term and short term relationship groups for derogation strategies including promiscuity and infidelity. However, findings yielded a significant difference between the two groups in terms of derogation strategies including appearance; males in short term relationship group were affected by derogation strategies including appearance more than the males in long term relationship group.Article Citation - WoS: 2Hemispheric Asymmetry in Expression and Perception of Happiness(Turkish Psychologists Assoc, 2012) Gulbetekin, Evrim; Iyilikci, Osman; Amado, Sonia; Cetinkaya, Hakan; Dural, Seda; Çetinkaya, Seda DuralHemispheric asymmetries in happiness expression -which has an important role in interpersonal communication and its perception- have been studied using different techniques. However, it is not clear whether the source of the asymmetry is the poser or the observer. In Experiment I, we investigated on which hemiface (right/left) the expression of happiness was better identified. Subjects evaluated right-sided happy chimeric faces as more expressive. In Experiment II, we examined whether the source of the bias was the observer's hemispheric asymmetry or the poser's facial asymmetry. Stimuli were briefly presented unilaterally, either in the left visual field(LVF)/right hemisphere(RL) or in the right visual field(RVF)/left hemisphere(LH). Faces were recognized faster in LVF condition, but they were evaluated as more expressive in RVF condition. Right-sided happy faces were found to be more expressive in RVF condition. Results indicated LH superiority in the recognition of happy expression and a RH superiority in the duration of facial processing. Additionally findings pointed out a sex difference in subjects' evaluation time and evaluation scores. Men evaluated the stimuli faster in the RH condition than they did in the LH condition; while women evaluated the faces with higher scores in LH than they did in RH condition.Conference Object Clinical Management Strategies of Cardiologists in Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction(Wiley, 2024) Kocabas, U.

With the uncertainty during the pandemic, individuals are concerned about different areas in their life such as health or economy. Thus, an increase in Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) symptoms is expected. The present study aimed to investigate the association between COVID-19 concerns and GAD-symptoms, and the mediating roles of Mindfulness, Cognitive Control (CC), and Cognitive Flexibility (CF) in this relationship. 458 individuals aged between 18-75 (78.4% female, 21.6% male) participated in the present study. Data was collected online using self-reported questionnaires measuring concerns related to COVID-19, GAD-symptoms, Mindfulness, CC, and CF. The results of the present study showed that GAD-symptoms were significantly predicted by coronavirus concerns. The more worries about the pandemic outcome, the higher GAD-symptoms were reported. Moreover, this association was mediated by Mindfulness and CC. Mindful individuals and those with higher CC showed fewer GAD-symptoms. Even though CF has been found as decreasing anxiety symptoms, it did not affect coronavirus concerns. Regarding GAD, individuals’ worries are not unrealistic, but mostly not linked to real threat. During the pandemic on the other hand, worries are related to real danger. Thus, beliefs about the pandemic might not be maladaptive. Instead of changing these beliefs, having the ability to direct attention purposefully through CC might be more functional. Furthermore, accepting their experiences in a non-judgmental way might be adaptive. These results highlight that individuals with GAD-symp-toms might benefit from interventions based on Mindfulness and CC during the pandemic. © 2024 Association of Clinical Psychology Research.

In this regard, by scrutinizing these underlying factors, we aim to uncover insights that can inform the development of targeted business strategies that better align with users' preferences and needs, thereby overcoming barriers to adoption and facilitating the wider dissemination of shared biking systems. Findings show that as consumers perceive shared biking services as useful and hedonic, their attitudes become more favorable. Importantly, highlighting the mediating role of compatibility, this study emphasizes the congruence among shared biking services, consumers' lifestyles, and their traveling habits. Findings also suggest that perceived complexity has a negative impact on shared biking attitudes. Interestingly, no significant relationship was found between perceived risk and shared biking attitude. The findings provide further support for innovation diffusion and theory of reasoned action. The suggested theoretical framework integrates variables related to both barriers and drivers, thus guiding future studies on the sharing economy. The study also provides insights that contribute to the development of service design and marketing strategies that respond better to users' needs, and also, facilitate the spread of these mobility systems.Article Citation - WoS: 1Non-Suicidal Self-Injury Among Turkish Young Adults: an Investigation of Intrapersonal Factors(Istanbul univ, fac letters, dept psychology, 2024-04-05) Tuna, Ezgi; Gençöz, TulinNonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) includes the actions of individuals that inflict intentional harm to bodily tissues without intent of ending one's life. NSSI is especially frequent among young individuals and may predict future suicidal acts. Although scholarly attention on NSSI has increased, it remains a poorly understood and complex condition. Furthermore, NSSI among nonwestern populations is under-examined. According to the benefits and barriers model (BBM; Hooley & Franklin, 2018) of NSSI, benefits, such as self-punishment and affect improvement, play a role in the initiation of NSSI, while barriers, such as pain and a positive view of the self, play a role in its prevention. The current study uses the framework based on the BBM and explores the relative association between several psychological factors (i.e., emotion dysregulation, negative and positive affect [NA and PA, respectively], thought suppression, self-criticism, and self-compassion) and NSSI. The participants were 353 Turkish young adults (NSSI group: n = 158; no-NSSI group: n = 195) who completed online questionnaires. The results indicated that NSSI was common and repetitive in the sample. The most prevalent NSSI behavior was impeding wound healing. Among the study variables, high levels of nonacceptance of emotional reaction and self-criticism and decreased levels of self-compassion were related to NSSI. PA, NA, thought suppression, and the remaining five dimensions of emotion regulation problems were nonsignificantly linked to NSSI when considering all factors. The results indicate that NSSI is a complex phenomenon associated with various psychological factors, which may require prevention and intervention programs that target multiple aspects. Based on these findings, improving emotion regulation and self-compassion and decreasing self-criticism may be intervention targets for this population.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2A New Scoring System for the Evaluation of Ibrutinib-Associated Arrhythmias in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia: the ACEF Score(Turkish Society of Hematology, 2024-05-30) Ugur, Mehmet Can; Bilgir, Oktay; Dogdus, Mustafa; Koyuncu, İlhan; Senoz, Oktay; Koyun, Emin; Koyuncu, BetulAmaç: Kardiyak dokuda Bruton tirozin kinaz inhibisyonu, stres sırasında dokunun korunmasından sorumlu olan PI3K-AKT sinyal yolunun inhibisyonuna neden olur. Bu nedenle aritmi riskinde bir artış vardır. Bu çalışma, yaş, kreatinin ve ejeksiyon fraksiyonu komponentlerini temel alan ve basit bir puanlama sistemi olan Yaş-Kreatinin-Ejeksiyon Fraksiyonu (ACEF) skoru ile bu riskin tahmin edilebilmesini araştırmaktadır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Kronik lenfositik lösemi (KLL) tanısı alan ve en az 1 yıldır ibrutinib tedavisi alan hastalar ekokardiyografi ve Holter elektrokardiyografi ile değerlendirildi ve sonuçlar tedavi almayan KLL hastalarından oluşan kontrol grubuyla karşılaştırıldı. ACEF skoru, yaş/sol ventriküler ejeksiyon fraksiyonu+1 (kreatinin >2,0 mg/dL ise) formülüyle hesaplandı. Bulgular: Hastaların aritmi gelişimi değerlendirildiğinde paroksismal atriyal fibrilasyon (PAF) dışındaki aritmi türleri açısından kontrol ve ibrutinib grupları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunmadı. PAF, ibrutinib kullanmayanlar ile kullananlar arasında %8’e karşı %22 (p=0,042) oranında meydana gelmekteydi. İbrutinib kullanan hastalarda ACEF skorunun >1,21 olması, PAF gelişimini %77 duyarlılık ve %75 özgüllükle öngörmekteydi (eğri altındaki alan: 0,830, %95 güven aralığı: 0,698-0,962, p<0,001). Sonuç: ACEF skoru, KLL tanısı alan ve ibrutinib başlanması planlanan hastalarda PAF gelişimini öngören bir risk skoru olarak kullanılabilir.
