Yayın Development of externalizing behaviors in the context of family and non-family relationships(Springer New York, 2016-02-04) Akçinar Yayla, Berna; Baydar, NazlıA longitudinal model was presented, that included reciprocal associations between physically harsh parenting by the mother, child externalizing problems, and support from the father, the extended family, and the neighbors. This transactional process was estimated for the years preceding school entry. The data were from a 4-years longitudinal and nationally representative study of 1009 children and their mothers in Turkey. The results indicated that concurrently, physically harsh parenting and child externalizing problems were strongly associated. Controlling for their within domain stability and cross-domain concurrent correlation, changes in harsh parenting and changes in child externalizing behaviors had significant reciprocal effects in early childhood, although these effects were small. These reciprocal effects were smaller for observer reported harsh parenting than maternal reports. There was a role of the mesosystem in this developmental process. Increases in the support from the father, and the extended family and the neighbors predicted declines in the child externalizing behaviors subsequently. Reciprocally, high child externalizing and maternal physically harsh parenting predicted subsequent declines in the support from these sources. These results were consistent with the hypotheses that negative mother–child relationships could spill over to the other relationships of the mothers, and that positive and supportive relationships of the mother could constitute positive role models for the child.Yayın Does everyone benefit equally from self-efficacy beliefs? The moderating role of perceived social support on motivation(Sage Publications Inc, 2018-02) Bağcı Hemşinlioğlu, Sabahat ÇiğdemThis study investigated whether perceived goal support from family and friends may moderate the relationship between academic self-efficacy and motivational outcomes among early adolescent students recruited from a low-middle socio-economic status(SES) background school in Turkey (N = 319, Xa(ge) = 13.13, SD = .80). Self-report questionnaires included measures of academic self-efficacy, perceived family and friend support, and academic and career motivations. Academic self-efficacy and perceived support from family related positively to both types of motivation. Children who perceived lower family support benefited more from the positive effects of self-efficacy on motivations, whereas children with higher family support seemed to gain less (or not gain at all) from self-enhancing functions of self-efficacy. Same findings were found for peer support, but only when family support was excluded from analyses. Findings implied the need to study larger family and peer contexts under which self-efficacy beliefs may be more or less effective on motivation.Yayın Reciprocal relations between the trajectories of mothers’ harsh discipline, responsiveness and aggression in early childhood(Springer New York LLC, 2018-01-01) Akçinar Yayla, Berna; Baydar, NazlıTheoretical advances in the study of the development of aggressive behaviors indicate that parenting behaviors and child aggression mutually influence one another. This study contributes to the body of empirical research in this area by examining the development of child aggression, maternal responsiveness, and maternal harsh discipline, using 5-year longitudinal data from a nationally representative sample of Turkish children (n = 1009; 469 girls and 582 boys). Results indicated that: (i) maternal responsiveness and harsh discipline at age 3 were associated with the subsequent linear trajectory of aggression; (ii) reciprocally, aggressive behaviors at age 3 were associated with the subsequent linear trajectories of these two types of parenting behaviors; (iii) deviations from the linear trajectories of the child and mother behaviors tended to be short lived; and, (iv) the deviations of child behaviors from the linear trajectories were associated with the subsequent changes in mother behaviors after age 5. These findings are discussed in the cultural context of this study.Yayın Independent contributions of early positive parenting and mother-son coercion on emerging social development(Springer, 2018-06) Akçinar Yayla, Berna; Shaw, Daniel S.In the current study, we explored associations between parent-child coercion and positive parenting in the toddler period in relation to children's social-behavioral development during the school-age period. The data were drawn from the Pitt Mother & Child Project, a sample of 310 low-income, ethnically diverse boys. Drawing on tenets of both attachment and social learning theory, it was hypothesized that coercive mother-son interaction would lead to reductions in positive maternal parenting in the toddler period, and that both positive parenting and mother-son coercion in the toddler period would contribute to children's conduct problems at school entry and lower social skills and peer rejection in middle childhood. The results were largely confirmed, such that mother-son coercive interaction at 18 months was related to decreases in positive parenting at 24 months. Additionally, mother-son coercive interaction and positive parenting at 24 months were linked to child conduct problems at age 5, which in turn predicted child social skills and peer rejection during middle childhood. In addition to indirect effects through child conduct problems, mother-son coercion continued to be independently related to school-age peer rejection. The findings are discussed with respect to the importance of early coercive interactions in the growth of child social-behavioral development from early to middle childhood.Yayın Treatment of preschool children with obsessive compulsive disorder(SAGE Publications Ltd, 2023-04) İnci İzmir, Sevim Berrin; Ercan, Eyüp SabriThe aim was to examine the clinical features of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) in preschool and the effectiveness of aripiprazole with a standardized Cognitive-Behavioral Family Therapy (CBFT) in the treatment of preschoolers with OCD. Twelve preschool children, 36–72 months of age were diagnosed with OCD according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, the Fifth Edition criteria by a fellowship-trained child and adolescent psychiatrist. They were evaluated with Kiddie Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School-Age Children Present and Lifetime version and Childhood Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (CY-BOCS) at baseline, at the end of the 12th and 24th weeks of treatment. The baseline mean of total CY-BOCS score decreased from 33.67 to 13.83 at the 12th week and 5.58 at the end of the 24th week of treatment. Also, 66.7% of them had at least one psychiatric comorbidity. Overall, this study revealed the effect of aripiprazole with CBFT in preschool-aged children with OCD. Also, the presence of comorbidity that is seen frequently in preschoolers with OCD may complicate the treatment. Therefore, there is a need to increase awareness of OCD and its comorbidities in preschoolers to supply treatment at an early age.Yayın The comparison of psychological factors and executive functions of children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome to ADHD and ADHD comorbid with Oppositional Defiant Disorder(SAGE Publications Inc., 2024-10) İnci İzmir, Sevim Berrin; Aktan, Zekeriya Deniz; Ercan, Eyüp SabriObjective: The study aims to examine family functionality, emotion regulation difficulties, preference for loneliness, social exclusion, internalizing and externalizing disorders, and executive functions in children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Cognitive Disengagement Syndrome (CDS) and compare with ADHD, and ADHD+ Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD). Method: This study included 842 children aged 8–12 years. The subjects were categorized according to DSM-V as ADHD (n = 246), ADHD + ODD (n = 212), ADHD + CDS (n = 176), and Control group (n = 207). The solitude and social exclusion, difficulties in emotion dysregulation and Barkley SCT scales, Child Behavior Checklist, family assessment device, and Central Vital Signs (CNSVS) test were used. Results: According to the study, children with ADHD + CDS had higher rates of internalizing disorders. They also preferred being alone and experienced more difficulty communicating with their parents and solving problems within the family. Additionally, these children had difficulty recognizing and understanding the emotional reactions of others. The ADHD + ODD group presented a poorer performance on CNSVS domain tests except for the psychomotor speed test than other groups. Also, ADHD + CDS children had the lowest psychomotor speed scores and lower scores on reaction time and cognitive flexibility than pure ADHD children. Conclusion: This study will contribute to the etiology, treatment, and clinical discrimination of ADHD + CDS.Yayın “Can we use a biomarker detection algorithm to measure the effectiveness of 14-channel neurofeedback in dyslexia?”(Routledge, 2025-10-01) Eroğlu, Günet; Harb, Raja AbouDyslexia, one of children’s most common neurological diversities, primarily manifests as a reduced reading ability. Genetic factors contribute to dyslexia, with contemporary theories attributing it to a delay in left hemispheric lateralization that reduces effective reading and writing skills. To assist dyslexic children, smartphone application, Auto Train Brain, has been developed to enhance reading comprehension and speed. Previously, the efficacy of the mobile application’s training program was assessed using psychometric tests; however, our study employed a biomarker detection software to evaluate the neurofeedback’s impact. Machine learning (ML) techniques have recently gained traction in differentiating between dyslexia and typically developing children (TDC). The dataset of this study consists of 100 sessions of 2-minute resting-state eyes-open 14-channel Quantitative Electroencephalography (QEEG) data from 100 children with dyslexia and 100 TDC. Therefore, the dyslexia biomarker detection software assessed the efficacy of the 14-channel neurofeedback administered via Auto Train Brain. Results showed significant improvement in electrophysiological normalization, increasing from 30% in the first 20 sessions to 61% by the end of the training. A two-proportion Z-test confirmed this improvement was statistically significant (Z = −3.96, p = 0.00007), particularly between the 1–20 and 1–60 session intervals (Z = −2.66, p = 0.0079).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.Yayın Theta and Beta1 frequency band values predict dyslexia classification(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2025-12-29) Eroğlu, Günet; Harb, Mhd Raja AbouDyslexia, impacting children's reading skills, prompts families to seek cost-effective neurofeedback therapy solutions. Utilising machine learning, we identified predictive factors for dyslexia classification. Employing advanced techniques, we gathered 14-channel Quantitative Electroencephalography (QEEG) data from 200 participants, achieving 99.6% dyslexic classification accuracy through cross-validation. During validation, 48% of dyslexic children's sessions were consistently classified as normal, with a 95% confidence interval of 47.31 to 48.68. Focusing on individuals consistently diagnosed with dyslexia during therapy, we found that dyslexic individuals exhibited higher theta values and lower beta1 values compared to typically developing children. This study pioneers machine learning in predicting dyslexia classification factors, offering valuable insights for families considering neurofeedback therapy investment.Yayın Child domestic labour and mothers' employment in Turkey(Taylor and Francis, 2016-01-01) Susanlı, Zehra Bilgen; İnanç Tunçer, Özlem; Koloğlugil, Serhat; Koloğlugil, SerhatThis paper takes an initial step in studying the determinants of child domestic labour and its relationship with mothers' employment in Turkey. We focus on children that are responsible for performing the domestic chores in their households. Using household level data from Demographic and Health Survey (2003), we find that the probability of child domestic labour is greater if the oldest child in the household is female; and this is stronger in rural areas. We also find that the likelihood of child domestic labour decreases with parental education. Our findings also suggest that the unobservable factors that increase the probability that a mother works increases the probability of child domestic labour in urban areas, but the opposite is true for rural areas.
