Beşinci Beş Yıllık Kalkınma Planı Dönemine Girilirken Eğitim Sektöründe Planlama Sorunları

Beşinci Beş Yıllık Plan dönemi arifesinde (1) Türkiye’de istihdam piyasası hiç de iç açıcı bir görünüm vermemektedir. Dünya ülkeleri işsizlik sıralamasında Türkiye en yüksek işsizlik oranına sahip ülkeler arasında yer almakta ve yaklaşık her beş kişiden biri işsiz gezmektedir (2). İşsizlik oranı 1983 yılı için % 9,7 olarak hedeflenmişken, bu oran yaklaşık % 19,3 gibi çok yüksek bir değere ulaşmıştır. Ekonomik ve sosyal sonuçları itibariyle düşünüldüğünde, işsizliğin toplumumuz açısından ne denli ağır bir problem olduğu ortaya çıkar. Çizelge 1, 1978-1983 yıllarında Türkiye’de emek piyasasının durumunu göstermektedir

Comorbidities, social impact, and quality of life in tourette syndrome

Tourette syndrome (TS) is more than having motor and vocal tics, and this review will examine the varied comorbidities as well as the social impact and quality of life (QoL) in individuals with TS. The relationship between any individual and his/her environment is complex, and this is further exaggerated in the case of a person with TS. For example, tics may play a significant role in shaping the person's experiences, perceptions, and interactions with the environment. Furthermore, associated clinical features, comorbidities, and coexisting psychopathologies may compound or alter this relationship. In this regard, the common comorbidities include attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and disruptive behaviors, obsessive compulsive disorder, and autism spectrum disorder, and coexistent problems include anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem, which can all lead to poorer psychosocial functioning and QoL. Thus, the symptoms of TS and the associated comorbid conditions may interact to result in a vicious cycle or a downward spiraling of negative experiences and poor QoL. The stigma and social maladjustment in TS and the social exclusion, bullying, and discrimination are considered to be caused in large part by misperceptions of the disorder by teachers, peers, and the wider community. Improved community and professional awareness about TS and related comorbidities and other psychopathologies as well as the provision of multidisciplinary services to meet the complex needs of this clinical population are critical. Future research to inform the risk and resilience factors for successful long-term outcomes is also warranted

The effects of Gilles de la Tourette syndrome and other chronic tic disorders on quality of life across the lifespan:a systematic review

Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (GTS) and other chronic tic disorders are neurodevelopmental conditions characterized by the presence of tics and associated behavioral problems. Whilst converging evidence indicates that these conditions can affect patients' quality of life (QoL), the extent of this impairment across the lifespan is not well understood. We conducted a systematic literature review of published QoL studies in GTS and other chronic tic disorders to comprehensively assess the effects of these conditions on QoL in different age groups. We found that QoL can be perceived differently by child and adult patients, especially with regard to the reciprocal contributions of tics and behavioral problems to the different domains of QoL. Specifically, QoL profiles in children often reflect the impact of co-morbid attention-deficit and hyperactivity symptoms, which tend to improve with age, whereas adults' perception of QoL seems to be more strongly affected by the presence of depression and anxiety. Management strategies should take into account differences in age-related QoL needs between children and adults with GTS or other chronic tic disorders
