This study examined familial patterns of attitudes toward lesbians (AT-Lesbians) and toward gay men (ATGay) by using Herek's (1998) short-form of AT-Lesbian and AT-Gay scales. The participants were 116 college students (47 males, 69 females) and their parents (116 mothers, 116 fathers) located in the West Anatolian region of Turkey. Results point to significant differences between parents and their daughters, but not between parents and their sons. Fathers expressed relatively negative attitudes toward gay men, whereas mothers' expressed similar attitudes toward gay men and lesbians. Sons' attitudes did not differ significantly across attitude targets, whereas daughters expressed relatively negative attitudes toward lesbians. Maternal attitudes appeared to be the most effective predictor for young childrens' attitudes toward lesbians and gay men.

Resumo: A finalidade principal do estudo era ganhar a consciência melhor de como os pais turkish percebem o jogo. Os participantes eram 340 mães que responderam a dois questionários que têm a caracterís-tica de se terminar para uma de suas crianças quatro e cinco anos velhas. As respostas dadas por mães para cada pergunta jogo-relacionada foram avaliadas usando freqüências e porcentagens. Os resultados mostraram que os pais turkish são playmates diretivos e controladores, e a maioria refletiu a opinião tradicional de que o jogo é para a criança não para adultos e de que os adultos podem se envolver como mestres. Os resultados, quando feito exame conjunto, mostram um retrato interessante de que as mães saibam o que fazer, mas de algum modo eram incapazes e saber como fazê-lo. Isto é provavelmente por causa das atitudes dos pais frente ao jogo.Palavras-chave: jogo intergenerational; jogo; percepção do pai. PERCEPTION OF PLAY IN TURKISH CULTURE Abstract:The main purpose of the study was to gain better awareness of how Turkish parents perceive the play. Participants were 340 mothers of the nursery children who responded to two questionnaires, which have the feature of completing each other, for one of their children aged between four and five. The responses given by mothers for each play-related question were evaluated by using frequencies and percentages. Results showed that Turkish parents are directive and controlling playmates, and majority reflected traditional belief that play is for child not for adults and adults may involve in as a master. The results, when taken into account with together, made an interesting picture that mothers know what to do but somehow they are incapable how to do so. This is mostly because of the attitudes of parents toward play.

Performed as "a case study", which is one of qualitative research approaches, this study was participated by a total of 20 parents and 40 students in the beginning of the 2017-2018 academic year. The findings demonstrate that both the parents and the students mostly used the expression of Turkish School for the course of Turkish Language and Culture. The findings obtained from the opinions of the parents indicate that the course of Turkish Language and Culture improved the speaking, writing and reading skills of the students, that the students reviewed the activities performed in the course of Turkish Language and Culture at home and in their daily life, and that after they participated in the course, their interest in Turkish and the course increased. The study concluded that the students attended the course of Turkish Language and Culture due to various reasons such as learning Turkish, fulfilling the wish of their families for enrolling in the course, having friends who attend the course, speaking Turkish well and effectively during their travel to Turkey, seeking to obtain the certificate of participation for the course, and being eligible to take part in the National Sovereignty and Children's Day program. In the study, the parents and the students stated that they speak Turkish at home, use the media tools in Turkish, read Turkish books at home and spend their holiday in Turkey and that the course enables them to improve their Turkish skills.
