Öğe Are CBT-based interventions effective for pathologic technology use? A meta-analysis of experimental studies(Springer, 2023) Kurnaz, M. Furkan; Kocturk, NilueferPathologic Technology Use (PTU) has emerged as a prominent public health and educational concern due to the rapid global advancements in technology. Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) has been extensively studied as a primary approach to mitigate PTU. The objective of this study was to draw a comprehensive conclusion by conducting a systematic review and meta-analysis of experimental studies that utilized CBT for PTU, including conditions such as Internet addiction, internet use disorder, and game addiction. Through a literature search, we identified 15 relevant studies for inclusion in our meta-analysis, conducted using Comprehensive Meta-Analysis (CMA). A moderator analysis was performed to compare the impact of CBT on different types of PTU and to assess its effectiveness across various age groups. Our analysis revealed the presence of publication bias in the included studies, and we discussed potential reasons for this bias based on existing literature.Öğe Characteristics of counselors-in-training as a mediator between their values and counseling skills(Springer, 2023) Kurnaz, M. Furkan; Seki, Tolga; Dilmac, BulentResearch on counselors-in-training is necessary to improve the success of the counseling process. The counseling skills used by counselors are critical to managing this process. This paper aims to contribute to the existing body of knowledge in counseling pedagogy by examining the role of counselor characteristics as a mediator in the relationship between counselors-in-training values and counseling skills. In this study, we had 524 counselors-in-training from various universities in Turkey. The results showed that the values of counselors-in-training significantly predict their counselor characteristics. Specifically, the values of the counselors-in-training predict their counseling skills, with the mediating role of the counselor characteristics. Additionally, the counselor characteristics of the counselors-in-training significantly predicted their counseling skills. Various practices and methods can be applied to improve counseling skills. Given that the development of values allows counselors-in-training to acquire important counselor characteristics, value education is essential in the training of counselors. Individuals who acquire essential counselor characteristics can use their counseling skills effectively.Öğe Do we experience pandemic fatigue? current state, predictors, and prevention(Springer, 2022) Haktanir, Abdulkadir; Can, Nesime; Seki, Tolga; Kurnaz, M. Furkan; Dilmac, BulentThere is an emerging literature on the mental and physical exhaustion due to the COVID-19 related restrictions. Some individuals seem to exercise fewer precautions recently in comparison to the onset of the pandemic in preventing the spread of the COVID-19. This phenomenon is described as pandemic fatigue. Though acknowledged in conceptual articles and news reports, there is a lack of empirical evidence pertaining to pandemic fatigue. We collected data from 516 adult participants to investigate pandemic fatigue and its relations to fear of coronavirus, intolerance of uncertainty, apathy, and self-care. 34.40% of the participants reported that the level of COVID-19-related precautions they take have decreased in comparison to measures they took at the onset of the pandemic. Additionally, our model examining the role of fear of coronavirus, intolerance of uncertainty, and apathy as mediated by self-care predicting pandemic fatigue demonstrated acceptable to excellent goodness-of-fit indices. The fact that one in every three individuals is taking fewer precautions is not only a threat to the individuals' own health but also to the public. Given that individuals are experiencing pandemic fatigue, governments should consider paying more attention to the biopsychosocial nature of humans in ordering restrictions and planning necessary precautions.Öğe Examining the Relationships Between Fear of Coronavirus, State Anxiety, and Relationship Happiness Among Married Turkish Individuals During COVID-19(Sage Publications Inc, 2023) Dilmac, Bulent; Karababa, Ali; Seki, Tolga; Simsir, Zeynep; Kurnaz, M. FurkanThe present study aimed to investigate the mediating role of state anxiety in the relationship between the fear of COVID-19 and relationship happiness among married individuals. An additional aim of the study also tested the moderating role of joint family activities between state anxiety and relationship happiness. The study sample consisted of 1713 married individuals (1031 women and 682 men). The study findings showed both the significant direct associations among the studied variables and the mediating role of state anxiety in the relationship between fear of COVID-19 and relationship happiness. It also found that the path of state anxiety to relationship happiness among married individuals having family activities was significantly lower than those who did not. Directions for future research and application were discussed.
