    Child maltreatment in Turkey: Comparison of parent and child reports
    (Czech National Institute of Public Health Srobarova 48 Prague 10042 10, 2016-09-01) Zeynep Baskaya Sofuoǧlu; Gorkem Sariyer; M. Gökalp Ataman; Ataman, M. Gokalp; Sarıyer, Görkem; Sofuoğlu, Zeynep; Sanyer, Gorkem; Gökalp Ataman, M.
    Background and Aim: Child maltreatment i.e. abuse and neglect is a significant problem worldwide and can cause impaired physical and mental health throughout life. The true extent still remains unknown in all countries including Turkey. The aim of this study was to apply the two versions of the International Society for the Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect (ISPCAN) Child Abuse Screening Tool of ICAST-C and ICAST-P which are used to assess child and parent feedback and to compare reports given by children and those given by parents. This is the first study of its kind conducted in Turkey. Methods: First ICAST was translated into Turkish by bilingual experts. Students and their parents were asked to complete ICAST-C and ICAST-P respectively with the help of trained researchers. In total data from 2 608 matched reports (2 608 children and 2 608 parents) was obtained. Descriptive statistics were used to evaluate demographical variables and chi-square tests were employed to investigate the statistical significance of comparisons. Results: The present study demonstrated that Turkish parents consider rebukes insults and corporal punishment effective ways of disciplining children. According to parents’ reports the use of psychological abuse was most prevalent against boys aged 16 while the use of physical abuse was most prevalent against boys aged 13. A statistically significant relationship was found between parents’ economic conditions and child abuse (p < 0.01). No significant relationship was detected between maternal educational levels and child abuse (p > 0.05). However the relationship between paternal educational background and psychological abuse was observed to be significant (p < 0.05). A comparison of children’s and parents’ reports shows that parents tended to under-report child maltreatment. Conclusions: The results show that there is a significant healthcare problem in Turkey since child maltreatment is prevalent but parents are not generally aware of its extent. Possible approaches to changing this situation include efforts to increase education levels promoting public awareness and strengthening political commitments. © 2016 Elsevier B.V.

    Molecular Basis of β-Thalassemia in the Population of the Aegean Region of Turkey: Identification of A Novel Deletion Mutation
    (TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2015-06-15) Ferda Ozkinay; Huseyin Onay; Emin Karaca; Esra Arslan; Biray Erturk; Asli Ece Solmaz; Ismihan Merve Tekin; Ozgur Cogulu; Yesim Aydinok; Canan Vergin; Erturk, Biray; Ozkinay, Ferda; Solmaz, Asli Ece; Arslan, Esra; Vergin, Canan; Onay, Huseyin; Karaca, Emin
    beta-Thalassemia (beta-thal) is the most common monogenic disorder in Turkey. The aim of this study was to investigate the spectrum of beta-thal mutations in the Aegean region of Turkey. The data was derived from 1171 unrelated beta-thal subjects detected in a regional reference hospital between November 2004 and December 2013. Screening for the 22 common mutations was performed using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-reverse dot-blot method and direct automated DNA sequencing for the unknown samples. Thirty-one different beta-thal alleles were identified. Seven mutations namely IVS-I-110 (G>A) (41.7%) IVS-I-1 (G>A) (8.9%) IVS-II-745 (C>G) (8.6%) codon 8 (-AA) (7.7%) IVS-II-1 (G>A) (7.2%) IVS-I-6 (T>C) (6.6%) codon 39 (C>T) (4.6%) accounted for 85.3% of the mutated alleles. Frequencies of the remaining 24 beta-thal mutations were less than 2.2%, these included one novel mutation [HBB: c. 206_ 212del (p. Leu69Profs* 19)] and four others [-56 (G>C) codon 16 (-C) IVS-I (-3) (C>T) (codon 29) codon 76 (-C)] found in Turkey for the first time. The results will help to prevent severe beta-thal through genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis (PND) in the Aegean region of Turkey.

    Study addiction and 'dark' personality traits: a cross-sectional survey study among emerging adults
    (ROUTLEDGE JOURNALS TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2021-01-26) Kagan Kircaburun; Irfan Sural; Evita March; Sabah Balta; Emrah Emirtekin; Mark D. Griffiths
    Background: Research has shown that personality traits can have an important role in the development and maintenance of behavioral addictions. However the relationship between dark personality traits (i.e. Machiavellianism psychopathy narcissism sadism spitefulness) and 'study addiction' has yet to be investigated. Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to examine the associations of dark traits with study addiction among the total sample males and females separately while adjusting for the Big Five personality traits (i.e. extroversion neuroticism agreeableness openness conscientiousness). Methods: A total of 716 university students completed an online survey including questions assessing the aforementioned variables. Results: Hierarchical regression analysis suggested that being female neuroticism conscientiousness Machiavellianism and sadism were positively associated with study addiction. However dark personality traits (i.e. Machiavellianism sadism) were significantly related to study addiction only in males but not in females. Conclusions: Findings of this preliminary study suggest that dark personality traits may be better at explaining male addictive studying patterns and that gender should be taken into account when investigating the role of personality in the development of study addiction.
