    The Relation Between Emerging Adults Attachment Styles And Rejection Sensitivity: The Mediating Role Of Emotion Regulation Difficulties
    (Association for Clinical Psychology Research, 2025-12-21) Zebil, Beyza; Koçak, Aylin
    Although the relation between emerging adults’ attachment styles and rejection sensitivity is well-established, there remains a lack of understanding regarding the potential mechanisms that mediate this association. This study aims to explore the mediating role of emotion regulation difficulties in the relation between attachment styles and rejection sensitivity among emerging adults. The sample comprised of 373 participants aged 18-29 years (M<inf>age</inf> = 22.80 years, SD = 2.55), of whom 85.5% were female. Data was collected online. The ThreeDimensional Attachment Styles Scale was used to assess participants' attachment styles, the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation ScaleBrief Form was utilized to evaluate emotion regulation difficulties, and the Rejection Sensitivity Questionnaire measured levels of rejection sensitivity. The mediation analysis revealed that emotion regulation difficulties significantly mediated the relation between secure attachment style and rejection sensitivity. However, emotion regulation difficulties did not significantly mediate the relation between anxious-indecisive or avoidant attachment styles and rejection sensitivity. Notably, the analysis showed that females experienced greater difficulties in emotion regulation and these difficulties decreased with age. These findings highlight the complex interplay between attachment styles, emotion regulation difficulties, and rejection sensitivity among Turkish emerging adults. The results of this study will provide valuable insights to the professionals working with individuals experiencing rejection sensitivity, emphasizing the critical role of attachment security and emotion regulation. © 2026, Association for Clinical Psychology Research.

    Ergenin Açık ve İlişkisel Saldırganlığının Duygusal Güvenlik Kuramı ve Kendini Belirme Kuramı Çerçevesinde Değerlendirilmesi
    (2024-06-30) Kocak, Aylin
    Bu araştırmanın amacı, Duygusal Güvenlik Kuramı ve Kendini Belirleme Kuramı ışığında, ergenin duygusal güvensizliği ile açık ve ilişkisel saldırganlık davranışları arasındaki ilişkide temel psikolojik ihtiyaç doyumunun aracı rolünü incelemektir. Araştırmaya, çoğunluğu orta sosyoekonomik düzeyden gelen ve ortaokul veya liseye devam eden toplam 234 ergen katılmıştır. Katılımcıların yaşları 11 ile 18 arasında değişmekte olup, yaş ortalaması 15.60’tır (%49 erkek). Araştırmada veri toplamak amacıyla Duygusal Güvenlik Ölçeği, Temel Psikolojik İhtiyaç Doyumu Ölçeği ve Çocukların Sosyal Davranış Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Temel aracılık analizi yapısal eşitlik modellerinden yol analizi kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yol analizi sonucunda, ergenlerin artan duygusal güvensizliğinin temel psikolojik ihtiyaç doyumlarını azalttığı, bunun da daha fazla açık ve ilişkisel saldırganlıkla ilişkili olduğu ve temel psikolojik ihtiyaç doyumunun ergenin duygusal güvensizliği ile açık ve ilişkisel saldırganlık davranışları arasındaki ilişkiye aracılık ettiği bulunmuştur. Ek analizler ise yalnızca ilişkisellik ihtiyaç doyumunun ergenin duygusal güvensizliği ile açık ve ilişkisel saldırganlık davranışları arasındaki ilişkilere aracılık ettiğini göstermiştir. Ergenlerin duygusal güvensizliğinin, özellikle ilişkisellik ihtiyacı olmak üzere, temel psikolojik ihtiyaçlar aracılığıyla açık ve saldırganlıkla olan ilişkisine yönelik bulgular, iki kuram çerçevesinde kültürel boyutlar dikkate alınarak tartışılmıştır.

    Kişisel Gelişim Olanaklarına İlişkin Kişi-Kurum Değer Uyumunun İşe Adanmışlık ile İlişkisi: Çalışma Süresinin Rolü
    (2019-10-18) Ersoy, Nevra; Deniz, Muazzez Giray; Peker, Mehmet
    Bu çalışma kurumun sunduğu kişisel gelişim olanaklarına ilişkin çalışanın deneyimlediği değer uyumunun işe adanmışlık üzerindeki etkisini incelemiştir. İş Talepleri ve Kaynakları Modeli ile Tükenmişliğin ve Adanmışlığın AracılıkModeli’nden hareketle kurumun sunduğu kişisel gelişim olanaklarına ilişkin değer uyumunun işe adanmışlık ileeğrisel bir ilişki göstereceği ve Çekim-Seçim-Yıpranma Modeli’nden hareketle kurumdaki çalışma süresinin builişkide düzenleyici rol oynayacağı ileri sürülmüştür. Çalışma verisi 204 beyaz yaka çalışandan toplanmış ve farkdeğişkeni oluşturularak gerçekleştirilen polinom regresyon analizi ve tepki yüzey analizinin sonuçları değer uyumuile işe adanmışlık arasında eğrisel bir ilişki bulunduğunu göstermiştir. Kurumdaki çalışma süresi ise bu ilişkidedüzenleyici rol oynamıştır. Kurumdaki çalışma süresi daha az olan çalışanların işe adanmışlık düzeyleri değer uyumundan daha fazla etkilenmiştir. Çalışma sonuçları, iş kaynaklarının yanı sıra bu kaynaklara ilişkin değer uyumununönemini ve kurumdaki çalışma süresinin dikkate alınması gerekliliğini vurgulaması yönüyle önemlidir.

    The 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 Dural
    This 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.

    Hemispheric Asymmetry in Expression and Perception of Happiness
    (Turkish Psychologists Assoc, 2012) Gulbetekin, Evrim; Iyilikci, Osman; Amado, Sonia; Cetinkaya, Hakan; Dural, Seda; Çetinkaya, Seda Dural
    Hemispheric 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.

    Covıd-19 Korkusu ve Psikolojik Sıkıntı İlişkisinde Bilişsel Duygu Düzenleme Stratejilerinin Aracı ve Düzenleyici Rolü
    (2023-12-31) Sayınta, Senanur; Gürül, Başak; Tuna, Ezgi; Koçak, Haticenur
    COVID-19 salgını, bireylerin fiziksel ve psikolojik iyilik hallerine dünya çapında bir tehdit oluşturmuştur. Yapılan çalışmalar, korku ve kaygının salgına karşı verilen en yaygın tepkiler arasında olduğunu göstermektedir. COVID-19 korkusunun psikolojik sıkıntı düzeylerinin yükselmesine katkıda bulunduğuna dair bilimsel kanıtlar düşünüldüğünde, bu duygunun etkili bir şekilde düzenlenememesi, psikolojik bozuklukların başlaması için bir yatkınlık oluşturabilir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, COVID-19 korkusu ile psikolojik sıkıntı düzeyi arasındaki ilişkide bilişsel duygu düzenleme stratejilerinin aracı ve düzenleyici rolünü incelemektir. Veriler, 587 Türk yetişkinden (Ort.yaş = 37, SS = 15.25) COVID- 19 korkusu, bilişsel duygu düzenleme stratejileri ve psikolojik sıkıntı ölçümlerini içeren çevrimiçi öz bildirim anketleri aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. COVID-19 korkusu ve psikolojik sıkıntı düzeyi ilişkisinde bilişsel duygu düzenleme stratejilerinin aracı olduğu çoklu aracılık modeli test edilmiş ve istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmuştur. Buna göre; kabullenme, ruminasyon, felaketleştirme ve başkalarını suçlama stratejilerinin COVID-19 korkusu ile psikolojik sıkıntı arasındaki ilişkide kısmi aracı rolü üstlendiği görülmüştür. Kabullenme stratejisinin bu ilişkideki düzenleyici rolü de istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmuştur. Buna göre, kabullenme stratejisini daha sık kullananlarda COVID-19 korkusu ile psikolojik sıkıntı düzeyi arasında daha güçlü bir ilişki olduğu görülmüştür. Bulgular, bilişsel duygu düzenleme stratejilerinin kullanımının bireylerin COVID-19 korkusu ve psikolojik sıkıntı düzeyi arasındaki ilişkide rol oynadığını göstermiştir. Görece daha az işlevsel olan duygu düzenleme stratejilerinin kullanımını azaltmayı hedeflemek, salgından etkilenen bireylerde psikolojik iyilik halini artırmak için etkili bir yol olabilir.

    Kovid-19 Kaynaklı Endişenin Yaygın Anksiyete Bozukluğuna Etkisinde Bilinçli Farkındalık, Bilişsel Kontrol ve Bilişsel Esneklik Değişkenlerinin Aracı Rolü
    (Association for Clinical Psychology Research, 2024-04-25) Meral Öğütçü, Yasemin; Yakın, İ.; Çarboğa, G.; Bayram, Ö.E.; Meral, Yasemin
    The outbreak of COVID-19 presents a threat to human psychology and shows an increase in anxiety. 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.

    Non-Suicidal Self-Injury Among Turkish Young Adults: an Investigation of Intrapersonal Factors
    (Istanbul univ, fac letters, dept psychology, 2024-04-05) Tuna, Ezgi; Gençöz, Tulin
    Nonsuicidal 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.

    When Are You Going To Marry? Intention To Marry Through the Lens of Theory of Planned Behavior and Self-Regulatory Focus
    (Turkish Psychological Counseling and Guidance Association, 2024-03-29) Koçak, Aylin; Mouratidis, A.
    What makes people to take important decisions in their lives, such as marriage? To answer this question, we relied on theory of planned behavior to examine the degree to which peoples' attitudes, subjective-norms, and behavioral control perceptions predict their intentions to marry. Furthermore, we used self-regulatory focus theory to examine whether such attitudes, norms, and perceptions could be partly explained by peoples' focus on pursuing-gains versus securing non-losses. We conducted a cross-sectional, web-based survey with a sample of 699 Turkish young adults (70.7% females; Mage =24.89 years, SD = 4.31). The results of the structural equation modeling showed that promotion-focus positively and prevention-focus negatively related to perceived behavioral control, which in turn negatively related to intentions to marry. Intentions also related positively to attitudes but not to subjective-norms, which however related positively to promotion-focus and negatively to prevention-focus. Gender and age differences were also found. The results are discussed in light of the two theories. © 2024 The Authors.
