The aim of this study was to determine the predictive effects of impulsivity levels and distinct personality traits (neuroticism, extraversion and psychoticism) on metacognitive thoughts across a healthy population. The study was carried out with 60 female and 9 male students whose ages ranged between 18 and 28. Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ), MCQ-30 Metacognition Scale (MCQ-30), Barratt Impulsiveness Scale-Short Form (BIS) were used to assess personality traits, metacognitive thoughts and impulsivity levels respectively. Regression analyses were used for data analysis. Statistical findings revealed a significant positive effect of neuroticism on overall metacognitive thoughts. According to statistical analysis, there was a predictive effect of non-planning subscale scores of impulsivity on cognitive awareness subscale scores of metacognition. Furthermore, there was statistically significant predictive effect of attention subscale scores of impulsivity on cognitive confidence subscale scores of metacognition scale. The results were discussed in accordance with the findings of the previous studies, and limitations of the present study and suggestions were provided for future studies.
The aim of this study is to determine the moderator effect of using social media between the relationship of recognition and distinguish skills of emotional facial expressions and social anxiety. The study was carried out on 187 university students who were selected randomly (in the range of 18-27 ages; female 134, male 53). Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale (LSAS), Facial Emotion Identification and Discrimination tests (FID, FDSC) and demographical information form were used for data collection. In addition, participants were asked how many hours per day they use social communication and social media networks. Test of One Way Anova and analysis of multi-regression were used in analysis of data. The findings reveal that there wasn't statistically significant relationship between recognition skills of emotional facial expressions and social anxiety of university students. There was statistically significant relationship between distinguish skills of emotional facial expressions and social anxiety of university students. There was a meaningful effect of using social media as a moderator between distinguish skills of emotional facial expressions and social anxiety of university students. The results were discussed according to the limitations of the study and the suggestions were provided for future studies.
Bu araştırmanın amacı "Çok Boyutlu Varoluşsal Pişmanlık Ölçeği (ÇBVPÖ)'nin Türk popülasyonunda geçerlik ve güvenilirlik analizini yapmaktır. Uyarlama çalışması 19-61 yaşları arasındaki kişilere uygulanmıştır. Açımlayıcı Faktör Analizi (AFA), Doğrulayıcı Faktör Analizi (DFA) ve test tekrar test güvenilirlik analizleri için iki ayrı örneklem üzerinden toplam 343 kişi ile çalışma yürütülmüştür. AFA sonucunda varyansın % 55.93'ünü açıklayan 34 madde ve içsel çatışma, kendine ilişkin pişmanlık, diğer kişilere ilişkin pişmanlık, kabullenme, duygusallık olarak 5 boyuttan oluşan bir yapı elde edilmiştir. DFA sonucuna göre maddelerin faktör yüklerinin .34 ile .88 arasında değiştiği görülmektedir. DFA sonucunda uyum indeksi değerleri; RMSEA .070; GFI .803; AGFI .861; CFI .850; χ2 ise 2.573 (p<.001) olarak bulunmuştur. Bu değerler modelin kabul edilebilir uyum düzeyinde olduğunu göstermektedir. Ölçeğin tümü için elde edilen iç tutarlılık katsayısı .94 olarak belirlenmiştir. Ölçeğin madde toplam korelasyonlarının .34 ile .74 arasında değiştiği görülmüştür. Araştırmadan elde edilen bulgular Çok Boyutlu Varoluşsal Pişmanlık Ölçeğinin psikoloji alanında kullanılabilecek geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçme aracı olduğunu göstermektedir.
