Yayın Attachment to god, stressful life events, and changes in psychological distress(Springer Heidelberg, 2012-01) Ellison, Christopher G.; Bradshaw, Matt; Küyel, Nilay Behice; Marcum, Jack P.Considerable research shows that social relationships, attachments, and support systems promote emotional well-being. The present study adds to this literature by examining the connection between attachments to God and psychological distress. Analyzing longitudinal data (two waves) from a study of Presbyterian (PCUSA) elders and rank-and-file laypersons, results show that: (1) a secure attachment to God at baseline is associated with a decrease in distress over time; (2) a secure attachment to God buffers against the deleterious effects of stressful life events on distress; and (3) an anxious attachment to God exacerbates the harmful effects of stress. In these analyses, a secure attachment to God is a more robust predictor of changes in distress than many, more commonly studied variables including race, gender, SES, and church attendance. Future research should therefore replicate and extend this line of promising scholarship by examining additional outcomes such as psychiatric illness, physical health, and even mortality risk.Yayın One size does not fit all in psychotherapy: Understanding depression among patients of Turkish origin in Europe(Turkish Neuropsychiatric Society, 2016-03) Balkır Neftçi, Nazlı; Barnow, SvenOver the last decades, Europe has become an immigration country hosting an estimated 56 million international immigrants. Yet, a large amount of literature suggests that migration is associated with a higher risk of common mental disorders, such as depression and anxiety. As representatives of one of the largest immigrant groups in Europe, various studies have shown that Turkish immigrants exhibit a higher prevalence of depression and anxiety disorders than do the background population. Nevertheless, it is also well demonstrated that this particular patient group is more likely to terminate treatment prematurely and displays lower rates of treatment compliance than their native counterparts. This reluctance for service utilization might be partially because of the fact that people from non-Western ethnocultural backgrounds (e.g., Turkey) often have a different notion and comprehension of mental health and illness as compared with those of the people from Western societies. Such mismatch often results in discrepancies between the needs and expectations of immigrant patients and clinicians, which attenuate the communication and effectiveness of treatment and lead to unexplained high dropout rates. To provide continued provision of culture-sensitive, high quality, evidence-based mental health care, the advancement of researches exploring such sociocultural differences between the patients’ and the clinicians’ notions of mental health must occur. In response to these problems, the current review aims to explore the interplay between culture and mental processes that associate with the etiology, maintenance, and management of depression among Turkish immigrant patients. This is to inform clinicians regarding culturespecific correlates of depression among Turkish patients to enable them to present interventions that fit the needs and expectations of this particular patient group.Yayın The buffering role of in-group identification and intergroup contact on the association between perceived discrimination and mental health(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2018-09/10) Bağcı Hemşinlioğlu, Sabahat Çiğdem; Türnüklü, Abbas; Bekmezci, EyüpPrevious research has shown that disadvantaged group members cope with the negative effects of perceived discrimination (PD) on mental health using various mechanisms. We examined the potential protective role of two processesin-group identification and intergroup contacton the association between PD and mental health (anxiety and depression) among physically disabled adults (N=269, M-age=39.13, SD=13.80). Intergroup contact, but not in-group identification, had a buffering role on the association between PD and both depression and anxiety. However, this effect was further moderated by in-group identification such that high levels of intergroup contact had a protective role against PD, only when in-group identification was low. Findings highlight the importance of evaluating various social-psychological processes interactively in creating a resilient outlook among disadvantaged groups.Yayın Treatment and long-term outcome of mental disorders: The grim picture from a quasi-epidemiological investigation in 54,826 subjects from 40 countries(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2025-06) Fountoulakis, Konstantinos N.; Karakatsoulis, Gregory; Abraham, Seri; Adorjan, Kristina; Uddin Ahmed, Helal; Alarcòn, Renato Daniel; Arai, Kiyomi; Auwal, Sani Salihu; Berk, Michael; Levaj, Sarah; Yılmaz Kafalı, HelinIntroduction: This study registered rates of specific treatment options for mental disorders as well as their long-term outcome. Material and methods: The history of mental disorders was used as a proxy for diagnosis. The data came from the COMET-G study (40 countries; 54,826 subjects, 64.73 % females, 35.45±13.51 years old). The analysis included descriptive statistics, Risk Ratios, t-tests, and ANCOVA's. Results: 24.14 % reported a history of any mental disorder (depression >12 %, non-affective psychosis and Bipolar disorder 1 % each, >20 % self-injury, >10 % had attempted suicide, 7.17 % illegal substance abuse). Most patients were not under any kind of treatment (59.44 %) and most were not receiving treatment as recommended (e.g. 90 % of Bipolar and 2/3 of psychotic patients). No treatment at all and psychotherapy as monotherapy were consistently related to poorer outcomes. In anxiety or depression, only antidepressant monotherapy and benzodiazepines, in Bipolar disorder only antipsychotic monotherapy in males and antidepressant monotherapy in females and in non-affective psychosis antipsychotics and psychotherapy in females only, were related to good outcomes. No treatment modality was related to a good outcome in those with a history of self-harm, suicidal attempts, or illegal substance use. Only depression and treatment with antidepressants were related to metabolic syndrome. Discussion: In the community, the overwhelming majority of mental patients do not receive appropriate treatment or, even worse, no treatment at all. The outcome is unfavourable for the majority and only a few selective treatment options seem to make a difference.Yayın Ebeveyn tutumları ve çocuk davranış problemleri arasındaki ilişkide ebeveyn mükemmeliyetçiliğinin aracı rolü(Galenos Publishing House, 2025-11-11) İnce, Merve; Akçınar, Berna; Yılmaz, SimayAmaç: Bu çalışma, annelerin mükemmeliyetçiliğinin, annelerin ebeveynlik stilleri ile çocukların içselleştirme ve dışsallaştırma davranış problemleri arasındaki ilişkide aracılık rolünü incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Örneklem, 3-6 yaş arası çocukları olan 271 anneden oluşmaktadır. Katılımcılardan sosyodemografik bilgi formu, Ebeveyn Tutum Ölçeği, Hacettepe Ruhsal Uyum Ölçeği ve Çok Boyutlu Mükemmeliyetçilik Ölçeğini doldurmaları istenmiş ve veriler çevrimiçi olarak toplanmıştır. Bulgular: Çalışmanın ana hipotezini test etmek için yapılan analiz bulgularına göre demokratik ebeveynlik, içselleştirme (b=-0,117, p<0,05) ve dışsallaştırma (b=-0,076, p<0,05) davranış problemlerini negatif yönde yordamıştır. Bu ilişkilerde annenin kendine yönelik mükemmeliyetçiliği (KYM) ve sosyal olarak belirlenen mükemmeliyetçilik (SBM) aracılık etmemiştir. Otoriter ebeveynlik, içselleştirme (b=0,046, p<0,05) ve dışsallaştırma (b=0,049, p<0,05) davranış problemleriyle pozitif yönde ilişkilendirilmiş ve bu problemler üzerindeki etkilerinde KYM ve SBM aracılık rolü üstlenmemiştir. Buna karşın, aşırı korumacı ve izin verici tutumlar bu davranış problemlerini anlamlı bir şekilde yordamamıştır. Ayrıca, annelerin KYM’nin, aşırı korumacı ve izin verici ebeveynlik tutumları ile içselleştirme ve dışsallaştırma davranış problemleri arasındaki ilişkide aracılık etkisi olmadığı bulunmuş; ancak SBM’nin aşırı koruyucu ebeveyn tutumu ile içselleştirme [b=0,017, standart hata (SH)=0,009, güven aralığı (GA): (0,003, 0,038)] ve dışsallaştırma [b=0,012, SH=0,007, GA: (0,001, 0,029)] davranış problemlerinde ve izin verici ebeveyn tutumu ile içselleştirme davranış problemi [b=0,013, SH=0,008, GA: (0,000, 0,033)] arasında aracılık etkisinde bulunduğu görülmüştür. Sonuç: Bu çalışma, ebeveynlik tutumları ve özelliklerinin çocukların ruh sağlığı üzerindeki önemli rolünü vurgulamakta, ebeveynlerin etkili ve olumlu ebeveynlik yaklaşımlarını benimsemeleri için pratik müdahalelerin gerekliliğini belirtmektedir.
