Article Citation - WoS: 3Psychometric Properties of the Turkish Version of the Revised Scale for Caregiving Self-Efficacy(Gunes Kitabevi Ltd Sti, 2021-06-30) Ozgul, Ecem; Akpinar Soylemez, Burcu; Söylemez, Burcu AkpınarIntroduction: The self-efficacy of caregivers is an important matter that merits investigation, and this requires that the concept of self-efficacy be measured with a valid, reliable instrument. Materials and Methods: This research examined the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Revised Scale for Caregiving Self-Efficacy. A sociodemographic form and the Revised Scale for Caregiving Self-Efficacy were employed to collect data from April through December 2019. A total of 250 family caregivers were included in the study, which assessed the content validity, construct validity and reliability of the Revised Scale for Caregiving Self-Efficacy. Results: All 18 items had signi.cant item-to-total correlations (p <0.05). The Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.82 for the total scale, 0.76 for the self-efficacy in obtaining respite subscale, 0.82 for the self-efficacy in responding to disruptive patient behaviours subscale and 0.96 for the self-efficacy in controlling upsetting thoughts about caregiving subscale. Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that the Revised Scale for Caregiving Self-Efficacy is a valid, reliable measurement tool and suitable to the Turkish culture.Review Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 4Innovations in Neurophysiology and Their Use in Neuropsychiatry(Turkish Neuropsychiatry Assoc-Turk Noropsikiyatri Dernegi, 2022) Yener, Görsev; Öz, DidemMany structural and functional tests are used to explore the nature of neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative diseases. Cognitive involvement has become more and more remarkable in many neurological and psychiatric disorders. This condition evoked a paradigm shift, and today disorders are addressed from a neuroscientific perspective, including silent symptoms. The spatial resolution of structural studies is lacking and is combined with the unique temporal resolution of EEG methods. In our current clinical practice, EEG does not have definitive diagnostic value in psychiatric disorders, but it helps to make a correct diagnosis by excluding other neurological diseases. However, the use of EEG for research purposes is promising in both groups. In this review; there is up-to-date information on the use of electrophysiological examinations in neurological diseases, especially Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Frontotemporal dementia, and psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia, mood disorders, attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder, to define the point we have reached in our journey to understand these disorders.
