The study of the relationship between the self esteem, body mass ındex and life quality of adolescents<p>Ergen bireylerin benlik saygısı, beden kitle indeksi ve yaşam kalitesi ilişkisinin incelenmesi

The aim of this research is to study the relationship between the body mass index and life quality of ninth grade students after controlling their self esteem values. In the research Self-Esteem Scale was used to determine the points for self-esteem and Kiddo-Kindl-Adolescent Form was used for the perceptions of life quality. The students in the study group consists of 327 (45.3%) girls and 395 (54.7%) boys, It consists of a total of 722 students, and the average age is 15.2. When analyzed in terms of body mass index it was found out that of the students 16.8% are low weight, 70.9% are moderate and 12.3% are owerweight. When the results obtained by the research was examined it was observed that there are meaningful relationships between body mass index (BMI) values and self-esteem and life quality and between self-esteem and life quality. However, when the self-esteem values of the adolescent individuals were excluded within the scope of the research, the relationship between BMI and life quality points which previously show meaningful level positive relationship is almost non-existent. According to these findings the life quality of the adolescent obese may be low only if his/her self-esteem is low. The findings which obtained with this research were argued within the frames of existing research findings. ÖzetBu araştırmanın amacı, dokuzuncu sınıf öğrencilerinin benlik saygıları kontrol altına alındıktan sonra beden kitle indeksi ve yaşam kalitesi arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir. Araştırmada benlik saygısı puanlarını belirlemek için Kendine Saygı Ölçeği, yaşam kalitesi algıları için Kiddo-Kindl-Ergen Formu kullanılmıştır. Çalışma grubunda bulunan öğrencilerin 327'si (%45.3) kız ve 395'i (%54.7) erkek, toplam 722 öğrenciden oluşmuştur ve yaş ortalaması 15.2'dir. Beden kitle indeksleri bakımından incelendiğinde öğrencilerin %16,8'inin düşük kilolu, % 70.9’ unun orta ve %12.3' ünün obez olduğu bulunmuştur. Araştırma sonucunda elde edilen bulgular incelendiğinde, öğrencilerin Beden Kitle İndeksi (BKİ) değerleri ile benlik saygısı ve yaşam kalitesi arasında ve benlik saygısı ile yaşam kalitesi arasında anlamlı ilişkiler olduğu görülmektedir. Ancak, araştırma kapsamında ergen bireylerin benlik saygısı değerleri dışta tutulduğunda, daha önce anlamlı düzeyde olumlu ilişki gösteren BKİ ve yaşam kalitesi puanları arasındaki ilişki neredeyse ortadan kalkmaktadır. Elde edilen bu bulguya göre ergen obez, ancak eğer benlik saygısı düşükse, yaşam kalitesinin de düşük olabileceğini göstermektedir. Araştırmada elde edilen bulgular var olan araştırma bulguları çerçevesinde tartışılmıştır.

Gender differences related to parental role of the youths’ moral and emotional intelligence development&lt;p&gt;Gençlerin ahlak ve duygusal zekâ gelişiminde ebeveyn rolüne yönelik toplumsal cinsiyet farklılıkları

Morality is related to differentiation between ‘good (may be right)’ or ‘bad (may be wrong)’. It usually includes a range of rules that individuals what they should do or should not do in their society. Morality is a kind of specific cognitive concept that involves conscious judgment and making decision on issues related to rightfulness, injustice, right-wrong, good-bad and behave in parallel with these decisions and judgments. Emotional intelligence has a moral dimension as well. Goleman clarifies concept of emotional intelligence, and he underlines emotions’ role on human behaviour and their close relationships. According to Goleman, the emotional intelligence is the ability to identify, assess, and control the emotions of one self, others, and groups. The study group consists of eight undergraduate students were studying at Eskisehir Osmangazi University Faculty of Education in the academic year 2013-2014. Students were selected from 183 university students among their results from Emotional Intelligence Scale (Ergin, Ismen and Ozabacı, 1999) and Determination of Value Test (Rest, 1979) was applied with 183 undergraduate students with the method of standards sampling with the help of the minimum and maximum scores was selected from individuals (Yildirim and Simsek, 2008). The data were collected by a semi-structured interview form that was prepared by the researchers. The development of form was created for the purpose of considering the questions of the study. Data were collected by interview and qualitative data collection techniques. During the interviews, audio recording was used with the data were analysed the collected recordings with the descriptive analysis. After the categorization of data, the Cappa coefficient was calculated for the consistency between categories. The majority of the participants explained themselves as fair, honest, and emotional. ÖzetAhlak, bireyin doğru ile yanlışı ayırt edebilmesini sağlayan ilkeler ve değerler bütünüdür. Ahlak gelişimi toplumun tüm değerlerine kayıtsız şartsız edilgin bir uyma değil, topluma etkin bir uyum sağlamak için değerler sistemi oluşturma süreci olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Duygusal zekâ, kişinin kendisinin ve başkalarının hislerini tanıma, kendisini motive etme, içindeki ve ilişkilerindeki duyguları yönetme yetisidir.

The review of crimes against foreign tourists: The case of Marmaris&lt;p&gt;Yabancı turistlere yönelik işlenen suçların incelenmesi: Marmaris Örneği

The relationship between tourism and crime has long been interested by researchers from various points of views. The present study addresses the crimes committed against tourists from overseas and aims to investigate based on the questions prepared with regard to the relevant literature. Study data, on the special permission issued by the Marmaris Chief Public Prosecutor Office, was collected in Marmaris County through document review method. Collected research data includes crimes committed against tourists in the period between 2011 and 2014. According to research findings covering tourists visiting Marmaris County from foreign countries, it was determined that females, 25-59 age group, employed ones, singles, and Britons were in higher risk group compared with other classification groups. Moreover, whereas these findings suggest that the most frequently crimes committed against tourists are robbery, injury, violation of immunity of residence and sexual assault, they are mostly experienced in June, July, August, and September months. The relationship between number of crimes committed against tourists and number of incoming tourists was investigated. It is expected that study results will be beneficent for destination managers and marketing professionals. Finally, theoretical and practical consequences of findings obtained in the study were discussed.

İntratorasik lenfadenopatilerin tanısında transbronşiyal iğne aspirasyonu yöntemi ile elde edilen aspirata sitopatolojik yaklaşım

Transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) is an effective, safe and cost-effective technique that allows for sampling of the mediastinal lymph node and peribronchial lesions. It is used in bronchogenic carcinoma staging, peribronchial and submucosal lesions, diagnosis of sarcoidosis and tuberculosis, differentiating submucosal invasion, and in diagnosing mediastinal masses. From our experience at the University of Abant Izzet Baysal and from a review of the literature, we discuss the adequacy and the differential diagnosis of aspiration material obtained by TBNA and cytopathological-histopathological evaluation in intrathoracic lymphadenopathies to increase the success rate of the TBNA method.

After the earthquake measuring a magnitude of 7.2 and 5.6 in the province 644 people died, 283 people survived the wreck; about 28 thousand houses became uninhabitable. Because of the devastation and horror caused by the earthquake, thousands abandoned their habitable settings in a short time due to fear of earthquake in Van; people were forced to migrate to other provinces. One of the most affected social sections in the city affectef by the earthquake in Van has been Afghanistan and Iranian asylum seekers who were waiting to be resettled to third countries. Their number approximated to 1,700 before the earthquake, then with the occurrence of the earthquake and the emigration of the population of the city this number was reduced to 400 people. Some of the asylum seekers who had no homes or whose homes were earthquake-damaged were in miserable conditions for days stayed out all night (in open space) and were forced to live out-doors.Those who could not go to another city in the subsequent weeks, or did not want to go, that is to say, the majority of asylum seekers, were forced to live in their damaged buildings or tents distributed by the relief agencies. In this study, pre- and post-earthquake challenges faced by refugees and earthquake processes which deteriorated the living conditions in the city have been investigated.In order to determine the impact of the earthquake on refugees, asylum seekers, the investigation was partly based on surveys and interviews made after the earthquake in the city. The study partly dwelled upon survey and observation findings obtained from various other studies in literature using information technology and various other methodologies for interpretational analysis.

Comparative Analyses of Immune -Suppressive Characteristics of Bone-Marrow, Wharton’s Jelly a nd Adipose-Tissue Derived Human MSCs

Objective:Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which possess immunosuppressive characteristics on induced T-cells, were shown to be applicable in prevention and treatment of graft-versus-host disease. However, knowledge of effective cell sources is still limited. In this study, MSCs from different human tissues, i.e. bone marrow (BM), Wharton’s jelly (WJ), and adipose tissue, were isolated, and the immune suppression of stimulated T cells was analyzed comparatively.Materials and Methods:MSCs were co-cultured with phytohemagglutinin-induced T-cells with co-culture techniques with and without cell-to-cell contact. After co-culture for 24 and 96 h, the proliferation rate of T cells was estimated by carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester and apoptosis by annexin V/PI methods. Both T cells and MSCs were analyzed with respect to gene expressions by real-time polymerase chain reaction and their specific protein levels by ELISA.Results:The results showed that all three MSC lines significantly suppressed T-cell proliferation; BM-MSCs were most effective. Similarly, T-cell apoptosis was induced most strongly by BM-MSCs in indirect culture. In T cells, the genes in NFkB and tumor necrosis factor pathways were silenced and the caspase pathway was induced after co-culture. These results were confirmed with the measurement of protein levels, like transforming growth factor β1, IL-6, interferon-γ, interleukin (IL)-2, and tumor necrosis factor-α. Additionally, IL-17A was detected in high levels in WJ-MSC co-cultures. We showed that IL-17A-producing Tregs are the key mediators in the treatment of graft-versus-host disease.Conclusion:BM-MSCs, which have been used in clinical applications for a while, showed the greatest immunosuppressive effect compared to other MSCs. However, a promising cell source could also be WJ, which is also effective in suppression with fewer ethical concerns. We described the molecular mechanism of WJ-MSCs in allogenic transplants for the first time.
