The present study examined the mediating role of motivation in the association between autonomy support and children's school attachment. The study participants consisted of 437 primary school students (232 girls and 205 boys) selected from six schools in a province located in Turkey's southeast region. A hypothesized model was developed and tested by structural equation modeling on cross-sectional data. The data were collected via The School Attachment Scale for Children and Adolescents, The Scale for Motivation in Education, and The Short Form of the Learning Climate Scale. The results indicated that autonomy support had an indirect effect on school attachment through internal motivation. Contrary to these findings, it has been determined that neither identified external motivation nor introjected external motivation affected attachment to the school's directly and indirectly. © 2021 The authors.

WOS: 000503273200018 Drug addiction plays an important role in the problems experienced by children and adolescents in developmental risk groups. The programs developed to prevent drug addiction seem to be more on knowledge level. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between drug addiction and life skills in adolescents. In this context, a qualitative research has been conducted in order to demonstrate the attitudes of young people and their families towards substance use/dependence, the motivations of considering and starting narratives. the reasons of starting to drug, the consequences of drug use and the importance of life skills in preventing drug addiction. The data were gathered from 10 separate interviews with a total of 87 people, consisting of parents; (45) and young people (42) with the focus group interviews. The data were analyzed with qualitative data analysis technique using MAXQDA program. As a result of the research, it is found that young people who use drugs have problems with their families, do not have good relations with their families and friends, and they have low school achievement and school loyalty. Among the life skills that young people believe to be effective in preventing drug use are social skills, communication and nurturing relationships in affective domain; , problem solving, resistance to substance and goal setting, health in the field of managing emotions and self-discipline are the most important ones in cognitive domain.

The aims of this study are to define studies that will be conducted for primary prevention within the framework of the struggle with addiction and to present inferences for evaluating and improving prevention programs. Addiction is generally defined as the progressive use of a substance for providing the addictive substance's desired effect or when a decrease effect occurs despite using the same amount of the substance. When reviewing the literature on addiction, forensic or medical interventions alone are unable to offer effective solutions to this problem. Suggestions for studies on preventing and improving life skills have been able to be provided. The primary objective of prevention studies is to raise individual awareness and provide reinforcement before the use of any substance is begun. These studies have attempted to prevent addiction by improving protective factors and decreasing risk factors. Recently, prevention studies that aim to improve life skills in order to prevent addiction have been observed at the forefront and have revealed effective results.

02.ÖZET Bu araştırmanın amacı, 17 Ağustos 1999 Marmara Depreminden sonra farklı meslek gruplarındaki bireylerde görülen stres bozuklukları ve başaçıkma davranışlarını belirlemektir. Araştırma grubu İzmit bölgesinden Merkez, Gölcük, Değirmendere, Derince ve Karamürsel de çalışan banka memuru, öğretmen ve hemşirelerden tesadüfen seçilmiş 442 kişidir. Araştırmada depremden üç ay sonrasında 157, 18 ay sonrasında ise 285 kişinin cevaplamaları üzerinde istatistiksel işlemler yapılmıştır. Bu araştırma nedensel karşılaştırma (Causal Comparative) ve korelasyonel yönteme dayalı bir çalışmadır. Araştırmanın veri toplama araçları, Özbay ve Şahin (1997) tarafından geliştirilen Stresle Başaçıkma Tutumları Envanteri, Derogatis ve diğ. (1997) tarafından geliştirilen Belirti Tarama Listesi ve araştırmacının hazırladığı bilgi toplama formlarıdır. Araştırmada elde edilen verilerin analizi SPSS WINDOWS programıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Deskriptif istatistik yanında, psikolojik belirtileri karşılaştırmalarda t testi, stresle başaçıkma tutumlarının zaman ve mesleğe bağlı etkileşimini incelemek üzere faktöriyel varyans analizi yapılmıştır. Başaçıkma tutumlarının psikolojik belirtilerle olan ilişkilerini incelemek üzere korelasyon tekniklere de yer verilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda psikolojik belirtilerin depremden 18 ay sonrasında obsesif kompulsif, depresyon, fobik anksiyete ve ek skalada istatistiksel olarak anlamlı düzeyde azaldığı belirlenmiştir. Başaçıkma seçimleri üzerinde zaman ve meslek etkileşim etkisine bağlı manidar istatistiksel sonuçlar elde edilmemiştir. Zamanın bir değişken olarak dine sığınma ve kabul (bilişsel yeniden yapılanma) başaçıkma seçimleri üzerinde anlamlı düzeyde etkisi olduğu bulunmuştur. Araştırmanın sonuçlan deprem sonrası stres bozukluklarına ilişkin önceki araştırma bulguları ve felaketlerden etkilenen insanlara sunulacak psikolojik hizmetler açısından tartışılmıştır.

Summary The aim of this study is to determine the stress disorders and coping behaviours that observed amongst the different occupational groups after the Marmara Earthquake, occurud in 17 August 1999. A total number of 442 people randomly selected as a sample from different occupational groups, namely, bank clerks, teachers, and nurses who have been working in İzmit, Gölcük, Değirmendere, Derince, and Karamürsel. The data was collected from 157 people three months after the earthquake and 285 people eighteen months after the earthquake. A causal-comparative and co-relational method have been used in the research. The data gathering means used in the study were namely, Coping Behaviour Inventory ( developed by Özbay and Şahin in 1997), Symptom Check List ( developed by Derogatis et al. in 1997), and information gathering forms (developed by the researcher). The data collected has been analysed by using a computer statistic programme called SPSS WINDOWS. In addition to the descriptive statistics, t-test to compare psychological symptoms, and factorial ANOVA to examine the interaction of the coping behaviours with respect to the relationship between time and occupation have been used. Correlation techniques have also been used in the research to find out the relationship between coping behaviours and psychological symptoms. The results showed that decrease in psychological symptoms, obsessive-compulsive, depression, phobic anxiety, and the additional scale symptoms, was statistically significant 1 8 months after the earthquake. The results also showed that the effects of time and occupation on coping strategy was not statistically significant. The effect of time variable on fatalism and acceptance (cognitive reconstruction) was found statistically significant. The results have been discussed in terms of stress disorders in relation to the previous research finding and psychological services that should be given people who affected from the earthquake.
