Defeat, entrapment and suicidal ideation in a Turkish community sample of young adults: an examination of the Integrated Motivational-Volitional (IMV) model of suicidal behaviour

The present study examines the relationships between defeat, entrapment, suicidal ideation, thwarted belongingness, and perceived burdensomeness through the Integrated Motivational-Volitional (IMV) Model of Suicidal Behaviour in a sample of Turkish young adults. The sample consisted of 451 individuals (72.5% females, Mage= 25.20). The correlation analyses revealed significant relationships between defeat, entrapment, suicidal ideation, thwarted belongingness, perceived burdensomeness in the expected directions. Mediation and moderation analyses partly confirmed the assumptions of the motivational phase of the IMV model; entrapment played a mediating role between defeat and suicidal ideation, and thwarted belongingness (but not perceived burdensomeness) had a moderating role in the pathway between entrapment and suicidal ideation. These findings add a new dimension to the understanding of suicide risk and potential protective factors through the IMV model, which was tested for the first time in the Turkish population. It is anticipated that this study will contribute to suicide prevention intervention strategies, especially for young adults, at-risk group for suicide in Turkey

Is CONUT score a prognostic index in patients with diffuse large cell lymphoma?

Background/aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score on the prognosis in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Materials and methods: The present study was a retrospective study. The CONUT score was calculated based on serum albumin, total cholesterol and lymphocyte levels. This study included a total of 266 patients, 131 (49.2%) were female and 135 (50.8%) were male. The median follow-up period was 51 months (range: 1-190). Results: The median age was 64 years. The cut off CONUT was 1.5. There was a significant difference between patients with high (>_ 2) or low (_ 65 years (HR = 1.80, p = 0.028), Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) > 1 (HR = 2.04, p = 0.006), stage IIIA-IVB disease (HR = 2.75, p = 0.001) and the CONUT score (HR = 1.15, p = 0.003) were found statistically significant. In the multivariate analysis for PFS, age >_ 65 years (HR = 2.02, p = 0.007), stage IIIA-IVB disease (HR = 2.42, p = 0.002) and the CONUT score (HR = 1.19, p = 0.001) were found to be significant parameters. Conclusion: High CONUT score reduces OS and PFS in DLBCL. CONUT score is an independent, strong prognostic index in patients with DLBCL

Popüler dizi-filmlerin lise öğrencilerinin rol model alma davranışı üzerindeki etkisi: onun gibi olsam

Günümüzde dizi-filmler hemen hemen her yaş grubu insan tarafından takip edilmekte ve bireyler üzerinde özünü rol-model alma olarak tanımlayabileceğimiz olumlu-olumsuz birçok etki barındırmaktadır. Bu çalışmada popüler televizyon ve internet dizi-filmlerinin lise öğrencilerinin rol-model alma davranışı üzerindeki etkileri ile ilgili görüşlerinin incelenmesi amaçlandı. Bu kapsamda nitel araştırma deseni uygulanarak nitel çalışmalarda kullanılan amaçlı örnekleme yöntemi kullanıldı. Çalışmanın örneklemini Siirt ilinde üç farklı okulda öğrenim gören ve dizi-film izleyen 11 ile 12.sınıf öğrencilerinden 15 erkek ve 15 kız olmak üzere toplamda 30 lise öğrencisi oluşturmaktadır. Görüşme formu kullanılarak öğrencilerle 8-15 dakika arası süren yüz yüze görüşmeler yapılıp veriler toplandı. Nvivo10 programında içerik analizi yapılarak elde edilen bulgulara göre öğrencilerin dizi-film karakterlerine öykünerek onlar gibi olmak istedikleri görüldü. Bu öykünmelerin kariyer edinme, fiziksel görünüm ve kıyafet, konuşma tarzı, vatan sevgisi, motivasyon sağlama ve kişiler arası ilişkiler gibi farklı noktalarda duygu, düşünce ve davranış değişikliğine yol açtığı görüldü

The study was carried out on a total of 307 university students, 208 (68%) female and 99 (32%) male. The easy-to-reach sampling method was used in the study. According to the results of the research, significant relationships were found between loneliness, resilience, hope and meaningful life. Preloading results showed that hope and meaningful life had a partial mediating effect on the relationship between loneliness and resilience.The pandemic has also revealed the quarantine processes.
