In the late-stage idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IDP), comorbid conditions such as depression and drug-induced psychosis may be observed. A patient with Parkinson disease, major depression, and paranoid psychosis who developed neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) as the result of the sudden termination of high-dose (1200 mg/d) levodopa treatment is presented in this report. Because the patient did not respond to other treatment modalities, electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) was applied, and a rapid improvement was observed both in the patient's NMS and also in Parkinson's and psychiatric symptoms, with no additional side effects other than transient post-ictal confusions. The application of ECT allowed the patient to remain stable for a 5-year period with a quite low dose of levodopa (300 mg/d). Later, the patient had two episodes of depressive and psychotic symptoms, which were again successfully treated with the ECT. We suggest that ECT might be an effective and life-saving therapy in patients with severe, drug-resistant NMS.

This study aims to examine the opinions of people who have divorced because of their spouses' relationships on social network, and who stated that they were deceived by their spouses on internet.

Ters yüz sınıf modeli, sınıf içinde geçen zamanı verimli hale getirmeyi hedefleyen pedagojik bir modeldir. Bu modelde öğrenenler, bilgi edinme gibi temel düzeyde beceri gerektiren görevleri okul dışında gerçekleştirirler. Uygulama, problem çözme, yaratıcılık gibi üst düzey becerileri gerektiren görevleri ise sınıfta, öğretmen rehberliğinde gerçekleştirirler. Bu çalışma kapsamında, ters yüz sınıf modelinin odak alındığı, 2011-2015 yılları arasında çeşitli veri tabanları üzerinde taranan çalışmalar, içerik analizi yöntemi ile incelenmiştir. Bu bağlamda 29 adet tez, 61 adet makale araştırmacılar tarafından belirlenen 7 kategori altında analiz edilmiştir. Bu kategoriler; kuramsal boyut, örneklem, disiplin, araştırma yöntemi, uygulama sürecinde kullanılan araçlar, değişkenler ve pedagojik çıktılar şeklindedir. Analiz sonucunda ters yüz sınıf modeline yönelik çalışmaların en çok yapılandırmacı yaklaşımı temel aldığı belirlenmiştir. Çalışmaların en çok üniversite öğrencileri ile matematik ve yabancıl dil eğitimi disiplinlerinde gerçekleştikleri görülmüştür. İncelenen çalışmalarda ağırlıklı olarak nitel araştırma yöntemlerinin tercih edildiği belirlenmiştir. Çalışmalarda akademik başarı, öğrenci katılımı, öğrenci/öğretmen görüşleri değişkenlerinin sıklıkla incelendiği görülmüştür. Ayrıca, modelin en çok akademik başarı, öğrenci katılımı, motivasyon, öz yeterlilik algısı gibi pedagojik çıktılarının olduğu görülürken modelin üst düzey becerilere etkisine ilişkin yeterince kanıt bulunamamıştır. Çalışmadan elde edilen bulguların, ters yüz sınıf modelini temel alan çalışmalara çeşitli boyutlarda ışık tutması beklenmektedir.Anahtar Kelimeler: Ters yüz sınıf modeli; içerik analizi; pedagojik çıktılar *Bu çalışma 10. Bilgisayar ve Öğretim Teknolojileri Sempozyumunda (ICITS2016) özet bildiri olarak sunulmuştur.

Internet can be used in a maladaptive way to escape from or compensate perceived inadequacies or the problems experiencing in daily life. In relation to this, in this study the relationship of meaning in life, self-efficacy and self-esteem to problematic Internet use was examined. Furthermore, the role of meaning in life, self-efficacy and self-esteem in predicting problematic Internet use was investigated. The study was carried out 410 university students (280 females and 130 males) attending the different grades of various departments in a school of education in Rize, Turkey. In the study, Sociodemographic Data Form, Problematic Internet Use Scale, Meaning in Life Questionnaire, General Self-Efficacy Scale and Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale were used as data collection instruments. The data were analyzed through SPSS 15.0 version and descriptive statistics, Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient and multiple linear regression analysis were utilized in the analysis. Results showed that presence of meaning in life (r=-.26, p<.01), selfefficacy (r=-.36, p<.01) and self-esteem (r=-.30, p<.01) are negatively and significantly correlated to problematic Internet use, on the contrary, search for meaning's relationship was found in a positive way (r=.21, p<.01). Besides, presence of meaning in life, search for meaning in life and self-efficacy emerged as significant predictors of problematic Internet use. By discussing these results in line with the relevant literature, directions were given for further studies.

Mock trial is an activity commonly used both in and out of the class in citizenship education. Mock trial is a simulation technique rooted in experiential learning. This study aimed to evaluate the Mock trial method used by a primary school teacher in Turkey to solve the problems faced during lessons. Research Methods: This research is designed as an intrinsic case study, which involves the use of Mock trials to solve the classroom problems. Participants were a classroom teacher and 20 fourth grade students attending her class. Research data were analyzed using inductive thematic analysis. Findings: Mock trial procedure was conducted during the last 15 minutes of the lessons at one-totwo-month intervals. The problem to be handled in the Mock trial is decided by the consensus of the
