    Second Order Latent Growth Models and Measurement Equivalence
    (Turkish Education Assoc, 2011) Dural, Seda; Somer, Oya; Korkmaz, Mediha; Can, Seda; Ogretmen, Tuncay; Çetinkaya, Seda Dural
    Research 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.

    ÖRGÜTSEL ÇEKİCİLİK: BİR ÖLÇEK UYARLAMA ÇALIŞMASI
    (2014) Araza, Aylin; Alinçe, Merve; Aslan, Gonca; Dural, Seda
    Bu çalışmanın amacı, Highhouse vd. (2003) tarafından geliştirilen Örgütsel Çekicilik Ölçeğini (ÖÇÖ) Türkçe'ye kazandırmak ve geçerlik ve güvenirlik analizlerini yapmaktır. Ölçek, öncelikle araştırmacılar ve bir dil uzmanı tarafından Türkçe'yeçevrilmiş, ardından ifadeler iki dilli 15 uzmanın görüşüne başvurularak dil ve anlam uygunluğu bakımından değerlendirilmiştir. Öneriler doğrultusunda son şeklini alan Türkçe form iki aşamada uygulanmıştır. İlk aşamada, test-tekrar test güvenirliğini sınamak amacıyla ölçek iki hafta ara ile 50 öğrenciye uygulanmıştır. Test tekrar-test güvenirlik katsayısı birincil değerlendirme için 0,85, ikincil değerlendirme için 0,89 olarak bulunmuştur. Uygulamanın ikinci aşamasında anket 257 öğrenciye uygulanarak ölçeğin iç tutarlılık katsayısı 0,89 olarak bulunmuştur. Yapılan analizler sonucunda ÖÇÖ'nün özgün ölçekte olduğu gibi üç faktörlü bir yapı gösterdiği belirlenmiştir. Hiçbir madde atılmadan 15 madde ile üç boyutu ölçen geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçek elde edilmiştir.

    Testing the Concealed Ovulation Hypothesis in the Framework of Facial Symmetry Fluctuations Moderated by Menstrual Cycle in Women
    (Turkish Psychologists Assoc, 2010) Çeti̇nkaya, Hakan; Dural, Seda; Gulbetekin, Evrim; Çetinkaya, Seda Dural
    With three studies, a long lived position that women have concealed ovulation, and its possible adaptive value were investigated. In the first study, systematic changes in women across the menstural cycle were elaborated and of those, cyclic changes in the facial symmetry in regularly ovulating women were investigated. The findings showed predictable fluctuations on females' facial symmetry throughout their menstural phases. In order to determine whether the differences among the deviation from the symmetry scores of the facial pictures obtained from four menstural phases (namely, menstural, proliferative, ovulatory, and secretory phases) were detectable by males, in the second experiment, males evaluated the facial-menstural pictures for their attractiveness. The male participants rated the pictures obtained from ovulatory phases as the most attractive of all. Also they found the pictures obtained from the menstural phases to be least attractive. In the third study, half of the male participants (familiar males) rated four menstural pictures obtained from the same females, the other half of them (unfamiliar males) rated four menstural pictures, but this time each of which obtained from different females. The males in the latter group were not able to distinguish attractiveness of the facial pictures of different females. The results indicate that although there is some extent of concealment of ovulation in women as an adaptation, it is not completely concealed, especially from the familiar (or pair-bonded) males. Thus, men might have equipped with a counter-adapt, a mental device, through their evolutionary history to cope with the problem of concealment of ovulation in women by staying with her and observing the cyclic changes on her facial attractiveness.
