The phenomenon of place attachment refers to the emotional bonds people have with the places they live. This concept is a multidimensional and complex one as it includes variables such as feelings, understanding, perception and behavior patterns Lewicka (2011, p.223) states that although the studies on the place attachment should include "people, processes and places", the majority of the research focuses only on the psychological and sociological dimensions of the subject. In this framework, she underlines that a 'Place Theory' examining 'Place' has not yet been formed and there are few studies examining the relationships between place attachment and 'place' properties. This article aims to reveal the relationships between the existence of green areas and the phenomenon of place attachment, as part of a comprehensive research that investigates the place attachment theory and the characteristics of places. The study area is Kuzguncuk neighborhood, one of the old Bosphorus villages on the Asian side of Istanbul. The neighborhood is located between Beylerbeyi, another old Bosphorus village, in the north, and the historical city center of Üsküdar in the south. One of the most important urban image elements of the Kuzguncuk neighborhood is the vegetable garden (Bostan), formerly known as "Ilya's Garden". For Kuzguncuk residents, Bostan is both a frequently used green area and a place of collective memory of the neighborhood. For this reason, the Bostan area in the neighborhood, which started to become in attractive since the-mid 1980s, has been tried to be opened to development many times. However, this threat was eliminated each time with the efforts of the residents of the neighborhood. In the research, the results of the survey conducted in Kuzguncuk in June 2016 with the participation of 400 people will be shared. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The individual and social effects of the problems that develop due to the misuse of addictive substance are getting deeper. The greatest danger that awaits people using these substances is the risk of addiction to the substance used over time. Studies on substance addiction show that the extent of the danger is not limited to users and that non-users are also affected by this problem in different ways. The fact that larger masses are affected negatively increases the importance of studies aimed at understanding the nature and development of addiction. The aim of this study is to reveal the addiction typologies of adolescents who live in neighborhoods shaped by migration and who have made substance use an indispensable part of their life using an in-depth interview method. In order to reveal these typologies, 13 cases of substance use in adolescence who dropped out from school were interviewed, and how individuals interpreted the individual and environmental factors influencing their use of stuff in their own worlds were examined and the results obtained were evaluated within the frame of Bowlby’s attachment theory.. The meanings attributed to the concept of addiction and the communication expressions they use among the cases were determined as one of the focal points of the study. As a result of the research, it was seen that individuals identify the substance they depend on with the most indispensable values in their lives while defining addiction. In addition, it was understood that they attribute different meanings to some idioms and expressions that are also used in the folk language in order to communicate among themselves and thus develop a special terminology specific to the addiction subculture. Furthermore, in this study, four main addiction typologies were determined that direct adolescents to substance use, namely Family, Peer, Family-Peer, Relationship. It is expected that the detection of these typologies will give a new perspective to protective and preventive studies carried out within the framework of the effective struggle against the problem of addiction.

This paper is an attemp to applied translation criticism of the Islamic sources. The selected book for the application is al-Shâmî's Siyer book "Subulu 'l-hudâ va 'r-rashâdfî sîreti khayri 'l- 'ibâd". The Turkish translation of this book is named as "Peygamber Külliyatı". Debugging the books on Islamic sciences from rare mistakes is to contribute on making translation critisizm with specific methods and with a scientific aim. This approach is named as "Attachment Theory". In this approach, previously, the conceptual analysis of translation and translation critisizm and the examination of the historical development process have been done. In this context, the reliability of the applied approach is exper-inced through the scientific, artistic and ethical samples. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Attachment which is defined as strong emotional bond people develop for significant others have been investigated by researchers for long years. Attachment theory proposes that attachment patterns developed in the first stages of life are carried onto next stages of life with internal working models. Additionally it is also proposed that attachment patterns are important to determine individual's social-emotional competence. This study aims to review how attachment patterns differ according to life stages, continuity/discontiniuty of attachment patterns developed in the first stages of life and evaluate the relations between attachment patterns and social-emotional competence. The basic features of social relations model, relationship between attachment patterns and identity development, and risk taking behavior in adolescence have also been investigated in this review.

The type of attachment defined in the early stages of life and thought to be continuous, is a phenomenon that shapes the pattern of how a person makes contact with others. The clinical appearance of every type of attachment is different and each one has prospective and retrospective phenomenological reflections. In all stages of life and in close relationships, it can be observed if a person gets in close contact with someone else and if this relation bears supportive and protective qualities. According to attachment theorists, once it is defined as safe or unsafe during nursing period, it shows little change. Starting from Bowlby's work, unsafe attachment type is considered as the determining factor of psychopathology in the later periods of life, while safe attachment is considered as in relation with healthy processes. The nature's original model is safe attachment. Anxious/indecisive attachment, an unsafe attachment type, is associated with anxiety disorders and depressive disorder, while avoidant attachment is associated with behavior disorder and other extroverted pathologies. Disorganized/disoriented attachment is considered to be together with dissociative disorder. The aim of this paper is to review attachment theory and the relation between attachment and psychopathology. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
