    Incivility, Mobbing, and Abusive Supervision: a Tripartite Scale Development Study
    (Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2024) Sumer, H. Canan; Goncu-Kose, Asli; Toker-Gultas, Yonca; Acar, F. Pinar; Karanfil, Derya; Ok, A. Basak
    Using qualitative and quantitative methodologies, in three consecutive studies with employed samples, we developed measures of workplace incivility, mobbing, and abusive supervision sensitive to the nuances of a non-Western context (i.e., Turkiye). In Study 1, we first conducted 15 focus groups (N = 149), identified culture-specific and universal themes underlying the focal mistreatment types, and developed the initial scales. We then pilot-tested (N = 427) and refined the scales using exploratory factor analytic procedures. In Study 2, confirmatory factor analyses (N range = 456-524) and associations between the new scales and their widely used counterparts (N = 353) yielded evidence for the construct validity of the scales. Study 2 also involved the development of short forms of relatively long incivility and abusive supervision scales. In Study 3 (N = 482), we first examined the extent to which the three scales were operationally distinct. Second, we examined the scales' ability to predict burnout and organizational commitment. Results supported operational distinctiveness as well as the criterion-related validity of the scales. A dominance analysis revealed that the three scales had equivalent contributions in explaining the two outcome variables, further justifying their distinctiveness. We argue that the use of present scales is not necessarily restricted to the Turkish context and may prove useful more broadly in other neo-traditional contexts.

    Attention Mediates the Effect of Emotional Arousal on Learning Outcomes in Multimedia Learning: an Eye-Tracking Study
    (Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2023) Ozcelik, Erol; Aksaray, Sevgi Genc; Genc Aksaray, Sevgi
    Recent findings from psychological studies have shown that emotional arousal improves human memory. However, more evidence is necessary if these results are generalisable to multimedia learning environments. Considering these needs, the study has the goal to examine the effect of emotional arousal on multimedia learning. Fifty-seven participants were presented with instructional materials with either high- or low-arousing words and pictures in an experimental study. The eye movements of participants were recorded while they studied the instructional materials to examine the online processes during learning. The results suggest that emotional arousal enhanced recall and transfer scores. The eye-tracking results demonstrate that emotional arousal attracted attention. The results of the mediation analysis suggest that fixation time on emotional pictures as an indicator of attention mediated the relationship between emotional arousal and learning outcomes. The findings show the importance of the guidance of attention by emotional multimedia elements for learning.

    Antecedents of Problematic Social Media Use and Cyberbullying Among Adolescents: Attachment, the Dark Triad and Rejection Sensitivity
    (Springer, 2023) Demircioglu, Zeynep Isil; Goncu-Kose, Asli
    With the acceleration of internet use, problematic social media use (PSMU) is included in our lives. When looking at the antecedents of PSMU, being young has been found to be a risk factor for PSMU. In addition to the benefits of technological advances in education and training, rapid technological developments may also result in problematic behaviors, especially among children and young. Recently, possibilities brought by technology and more widespread use of technology by young people have created a new concept, namely, cyberbullying. The present study aims to examine the effects of attachment anxiety and avoidance on PSMU and cyberbullying as with the partial mediating effects of the Dark Triad personality traits, angry rejection sensitivity, and anxious rejection sensitivity among adolescents. In general, the findings supported the proposed theoretical model. The results are discussed in terms of theoretical and practical implications along with suggestions for future research.

    Relationships of Domestic Violence With Bullying, Silencing-The Resilience, and Self-Efficacy: Moderating Roles of Stress-Coping Strategies
    (Springer, 2023) Karakus, Cansu; Goncu-Kose, Asli
    The present study aimed to investigate the relationships of Child Exposure to Domestic Violence (CEDV) with bullying, silencing-the-self (STS) behaviors, resilience, and self-efficacy. In addition, moderating effects of stress-coping strategies in the relationships of CEDV with the outcome variables were examined. Data were collected from 569 adolescents aged between 14 and 17. The findings showed that CEDV was positively related to bullying and STS and it was negatively associated with resilience, overall self-efficacy, academic and emotional self-efficacy. Optimistic style and seeking social support moderated the relationship between CEDV and resilience. Also, the self-confident style, seeking social support, and optimistic style moderated the associations between CEDV and self-efficacy. Findings are discussed in terms of theoretical and practical contributions as well as directions for future research.

    Mediating Processes in the Relationships of Abusive Supervision With Instigated Incivility, Cwbs, Ocbs, and Multidimensional Work Motivation
    (Springer, 2023) Onaran, Sami Okan; Goncu-Kose, Asli
    We examined how abusive supervision (AS) affected instigated workplace incivility, counterproductive work behaviors (CWBs), organizational citizenship behaviors (OCBs), and multidimensional work motivations (MWMs), in line with the Job Demands-Resources Model and Social Exchange Theory. We suggested that employees' identification with their workgroup moderates the link between AS and instigated incivility toward coworkers and that organizational identification partially mediates the association of AS with CWBs and OCBs. Furthermore, we hypothesized positive correlations between AS and external regulation as well as amotivation, consistent with the Self-Determination Theory. Finally, we predicted that job-related affective well-being would fully mediate the link between AS and autonomous work motivations while only partially mediating the link between AS and amotivation. Online surveys were used to collect data from 519 white-collar workers. The data revealed that AS was linked to a higher level of incivility toward coworkers. Furthermore, it was linked to both CWBs and OCBs, both directly and indirectly through organizational identification. Organizational identification mediated the associations between AS and MWMs as well. Finally, job-related affective well-being mediated the links of AS with external regulation, amotivation, and autonomous work motivations. Theoretical and practical implications of the findings are discussed as well as suggestions for future research.

    Psychometric Adaption of the Impulsive Driver Behavior Scale in a Chinese Sample
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2020) Qu, Weina; Zhou, Mu; Ozkan, Turker; Bicaksiz, Pinar; Zhang, Kan; Ge, Yan
    Impulsivity plays an important role in aberrant driving behavior and crash involvement. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reliability and validity of the Impulsive Driver Behavior Scale (IDBS, Bicaksiz & Ozkan, 2016a) with a Chinese sample. Two hundred and ninety-nine drivers completed the Chinese version of the Impulsive Driver Behavior Scale, the Driver Behavior Questionnaire, the Big Five Inventory and some social-demographic and traffic violation items. A confirmatory factor analysis indicated that a four-factor solution with 20 items yielded a better fit to the data than other solutions. The reduced IDBS showed good reliability and a stable structure. Drivers' functional impulsivity was positively correlated with positive driver behavior and some ordinary violations. Meanwhile, the other three dimensions of dysfunctional impulsivity showed negative correlations with positive driver behavior and positive associations with aberrant driving behavior and penalty points and fines. Impulsive driver behavior is also associated with agreeableness and conscientiousness. These results provide evidence supporting the IDBS as a reliable and valuable instrument for measuring driving impulsivity in the Chinese traffic environment. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd.

    Mindfulness as a Moderator in the Relation Among Core Belief Disruption, Rumination, Posttraumatic Symptoms, and Growth
    (Springer, 2021) Haspolat, Ayperi; Cirakoglu, Okan Cem
    Objectives In the present study, we tested moderated mediation models where the moderator role of mindfulness and its subscales has an indirect effect of core belief disruption (CBD) on posttraumatic symptoms (PTS) and posttraumatic growth (PTG) through intrusive (IR) and deliberate (DR) ruminations. Methods Two hundred forty-six individuals, ages ranging between 19 and 77, with traumatic experiences participated in the study. The data were collected by Traumatic Experience Screening List, Core Beliefs Inventory (CBI), Impact of Event Scale-Revised Form (IES-R), Event-Related Rumination Inventory, Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI), and Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ). Results The moderator role of mindfulness was supported both for PTS and PTG. The analysis indicated that the indirect effect of CBD on PTS only through IR was moderated by mindfulness total score (MF-T) and nonreactivity (NR) subscales. The analysis revealed that the MF-T x IR interaction effect was statistically significant. The interaction effect was significant for only low and medium levels of MF-T. When the model was analyzed for PTG, it was observed that the indirect effect of CBD on PTG through IR and DR was moderated significantly only for describing (DES) subscale of mindfulness. In addition, the DES x IR interaction effect was significant only for medium and higher levels of DES. It was also observed that the DES x DR interaction effect was significant only for medium and high levels of DES. Conclusions Mindfulness and its components should be taken into consideration when assessing posttraumatic symptoms and growth.

    Does Perceived Social Support Buffer the Negative Effects of Type C Personality on Quality of Life of Breast Cancer Patients
    (Springer, 2014) Tathan, Ece; Yilmaz, Tugba; Bozo, Ozlem
    The present study investigated possible Type C personality-quality of life (QOL) relationship, and the moderating role of perceived social support in this relation among 101 postoperative breast cancer patients. Participants were from different cities in Turkey but receiving treatment in the capital, Ankara. Obtained data were analyzed by moderated regression analysis. According to the results, Type C personality was not related to the QOL of participants, however, higher perceived social support was associated with better QOL in patients. Also, perceived social support moderated Type C personality-QOL relation. Accordingly, patients high on Type C personality and perceived social support had the highest QOL. In contrast, patients high on Type C personality and low on perceived social support had the lowest QOL. Findings, as well as the strengths and limitations of the study, were discussed in the light of the relevant literature. As a possible clinical implication, enhancement of social support networks of the patients were suggested.

    Pain Perception, Distress Tolerance and Self-Compassion in Turkish Young Adults With and Without a History of Non-Suicidal Self-Injury
    (Springer, 2021) Tuna, Ezgi; Gencoz, Tulin
    Individuals with a history of non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) tend to have altered pain perception and difficulty in regulating their emotions. Previous work on NSSI has relied heavily on retrospective self-report data and clinical Western samples. The present study explored pain perception, emotional reactivity, distress tolerance and self-compassion in a sample of non-clinical Turkish young adults with and without a history of self-injury by employing a multi-method, laboratory-based design. Participants were 70 Turkish young adults (34 with a history of NSSI and 36 controls). Pain was induced by the cold pressor test before and after a distressing card-sorting task. Skin conductance was recorded throughout the entire procedure. Measures of NSSI, emotion dysregulation and self-compassion were also administered. Although the groups were comparable in pain threshold and physiological reactivity to pain, participants with NSSI had increased pain tolerance and reported more subjective distress during the distressing task. Pain perception did not change as a function of distress and both groups were similar in physiological reactivity to distressing stimuli. Participants who self-injure reported less self-compassion and more difficulty in regulating emotions than controls. These findings illustrate that participants with a history of NSSI have altered pain perception and experience more subjective distress during a stressful task. Individuals who self-injure may benefit from interventions targeting emotion regulation and self-compassion.

    Attentional Control Is Partially Impaired in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome
    (Wiley, 2013) Atalay, Nart Bedin; Kanat, Fikret; Suerdem, Mecit; Tulek, Baykal
    Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is associated with executive cognitive impairment. An important question is whether impairment in executive functioning in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is independent of dysfunction in attention. Attentional control is a subcomponent of executive functioning that is mediated by frontal lobe processing. In the current study, we investigated whether attentional control is deficient in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. Attentional control processes were investigated through conflict adaptation and conflict frequency paradigms. These neuropsychological paradigms were assessed by using the Simon, Flanker and Stroop tasks. We additionally analysed post-error slowing data within these tasks. Error processing is another index of cognitive control that is mediated by frontal lobe functioning. Our sample consisted of 14 healthy adults and 24 patients with untreated moderate-severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. Results indicated that attentional control is partially dysfunctional among patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. Attentional control processes were deficient when focal attention (Flanker task) processes were involved, but were intact when observed using the Simon and Stroop tasks. A non-significant trend in post-error slowing data suggested that error processing, assessed with the Flanker task, was diminished among patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. These results support the view that obstructive sleep apnea syndrome leads to some amount of frontal lobe dysfunction, and that attentional control and error processing might be particularly affected by obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.
