Bingöl, Orhan; Çelebi, Gülin Yazıcı; Kaya, Feridun
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of tolerance on social appearance anxiety and to test the roles of emotion regulation and self-compassion as mediating psychological mechanisms in this relationship. The sample of the study consists of 647 adolescent individuals living in Turkey. The Personal Information Form, Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire, Tolerance Scale, Self-Compassion Scale – Short Form, and Social Appearance Anxiety Scale were used in the study. Data were collected online using convenience sampling methods. Pearson correlation analysis was used to determine the relationships between the variables in the study, while regression-based mediation analysis (Process macro model 81) was used to test the mediation model examined in the study. Upon examining the findings, tolerance was positively correlated with self-compassion (r =.323, p <.001) and adaptive cognitive emotion regulation (r =.200, p <.001); while tolerance was negatively and statistically significantly related to maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation (r = -.250, p <.001) and social appearance anxiety (r = -.229, p <.001). Additionally, a positive correlation was found between self-compassion and adaptive cognitive emotion regulation (r =.358, p <.001); and negative and statistically significant relationships between self-compassion and maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation (r = -.576, p <.001) and social appearance anxiety (r = -.530, p <.001). Finally, a statistically significant negative relationship was found between social appearance anxiety and adaptive cognitive emotion regulation (r = -.219, p <.001); and a statistically significant positive relationship was found between social appearance anxiety and maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation (r =.484, p <.001). The mediation analysis, tested with 10,000 bootstrap samples at a 95% confidence interval, revealed that emotion regulation dimensions and self-compassion have a full mediating effect. The findings indicate that the tolerance factor reduces social appearance anxiety not only directly but also indirectly through emotion regulation and self-compassion. In line with these findings, it was concluded that individuals with high tolerance levels need to be supported not only through mindfulness programs but also through emotion regulation and self-compassion levels.

The factors such as global warming, wild irrigation, and synthetic fertilisers pollute the soil and increase salinity. The salinity is defined as salt stress for plants, and plants have developed various tolerance mechanisms to survive under salt stress conditions. Therefore, efforts to increase the tolerance of salt sensitive plants such as beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) are considered important. Additionally, considering problems that appear depending on global warming, understanding the tolerance mechanisms, and activating them by using natural and sustainable solutions are important for plant growth and preventing lower agricultural productivity. In this study, the effect of biofertiliser obtained from a small-scale bioreactor on a plant exposed to salt stress on the development of morphological, physiological, and biochemical properties of the model plant, Phaseolus vulgaris L. var. ellipticus Mart (Pve) were investigated. The biofertiliser application increased the amount of chlorophyll, flavonoids, anthocyanin, and proline while the amount of hydrogen peroxide and lipid peroxidation decreased in the plant. This change enhanced the enzyme activities of catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) and the plant formed tolerance to the salt stress. As a result, the biofertiliser application to the plant may activate the tolerance mechanism against salt stress.
