Yücel, İbrahim; Türkkan, Tuğba; Yoldaş, Nergiz; Duman, Münevver
This study aimed to find out the experiences and coping styles of young adults affected by the Kahramanmaraş-centered earthquakes that took place on 6 February 2023, during and after the earthquake. Qualitative research method and phenomenological approach were used in the study. In-depth interviews were conducted with 33 young adults who were selected using the purposive sampling technique. The interviews with earthquake survivors were conducted approximately two months after the earthquake and took place in the temporary housing facilities to which they had been relocated. The research findings showed that many young people experienced the night of the earthquake as an unforgettable night. It was also found that the support provided after the earthquake was inadequate to meet the needs of survivors. Certain changes occurred in the family relations and personality traits of survivors after the earthquake. Young adults experienced some difficulties after the earthquake and developed a series of coping mechanisms to overcome such difficulties. At the end of the research, recommendations are made for field workers and policy makers from a psychological perspective.

Çelebi, Gülin Yazıcı
Suicide is a significant public health problem worldwide. The aim of this study is to examine the potential effects of levels of vulnerable narcissism and grudge on the likelihood of suicide. In addition to these variables, the potential effects of some demographic variables (gender, marital status, age, socioeconomic status, education level, perceived religiosity, number of siblings) were also investigated. A convenience sampling method was used to determine the study group. The study group consisted of a total of 500 individuals; 368 (73.6%) were women and 132 (26.4%) were men. The mean age of women was 26.31 (SD = 9.60, min-max = 18–64), the mean age of men was 29.01 (SD = 10.76, min-max = 18–55), and the mean age of the entire sample was 26.84 (SD = 9.88, min-max = 18–64). The Suicide Probability Scale, Vulnerable Narcissism Scale, Grudge Scale, and Personal Information Form were used as data collection tools in the study. Pearson correlation coefficient was used to examine the relationships between variables in the analysis of the data. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to examine the extent to which vulnerable narcissism, grudge, and sociodemographic characteristics are associated with suicide probability. The regression model showed that the independent variables significantly predicted the probability of suicide. According to the results obtained, the independent variables explained 38% of the variation in the probability of suicide {[R = 0.619, R2 = 0.383, F(8, 499)= 38.12, p < 0.0001]}, and vulnerable narcissism and grudge are positive predictors of the probability of suicide. Vulnerable narcissism (β = 0.34, p < 0.001) and grudge (β = 0.22, p < 0.001) are positive predictors of the probability of suicide. Age (β = −0.23, p < 0.001), education level (β = −0.08, p = 0.003), and SEL (β = −0.19, p < 0.001) are significant variables that negatively predict the probability of suicide. Based on the results, it can be said individuals with high levels of narcissism and grudge have a higher probability of suicide, and that some socio-demographic characteristics may influence these relationships. The findings are discussed in light of the literature.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationships between weight self-stigma, weight bias internalization, eating attitudes, and body appreciation in young adults, and to ascertain the distinct impact of these variables on body appreciation. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out including young adults aged 19 to 35 years, comprising 69.6% females and 30.4% males. Participants completed a questionnaire evaluating weight self-stigma, internalization of weight bias, eating attitudes, and body appreciation. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses were used to assess the additional impacts of weight-related stigma and eating attitudes on body appreciation, while adjusting for demographic and anthropometric factors. Results: Weight self-stigma, particularly the internalization of weight bias, showed a significant negative association with body appreciation. Weight self-stigma and its subdimensions (self-devaluation and fear of enacted stigma) had substantial negative correlations with body appreciation. These correlations encompassed the subdimensions of body appreciation, specifically general body appreciation and body image investment. While eating attitudes did not show a significant correlation with body appreciation at the bivariate level, they became a significant predictor in the hierarchical regression model, suggesting a conditional (suppression) effect after accounting for weight-related stigma and BMI. Conclusion: The findings emphasize the important function of weight-related stigma in diminishing body appreciation among young adults and stress the necessity of examining eating attitudes in conjunction with stigma-related factors. Interventions designed to enhance positive body image should focus on both internalized weight stigma and maladaptive eating-related attitudes.

Doğan, Gökcen; Tokaç Er, Nida; Öztürk, Meryem Elif; Meriç, Çağdaş Salih; Yilmaz, Hacı Ömer; Yabanci Ayhan, Nurcan
Aim: The aims of this study were to evaluate hand grip strength in young adults, to examine its relationship with anthropometric values, and to determine which values are predictive. Subject and methods: This prospective, cross-sectional study was conducted with 913 healthy young adults aged 18–30 years. A questionnaire form was administered in face-to-face interviews, and anthropometric measurements including height, body weight, waist circumference (WC), hip circumference (HC), mid-upper arm circumference (MAC), neck circumference (NC), triceps skinfold thickness (TSF), and hand grip strength (kg) were performed for each participant. Results: Hand grip strength was significantly higher for men than for women (p < 0.001), and was also higher in obese and overweight people compared to underweight participants (p < 0.001). Hand grip strength was correlated with weight, height, body mass index, MAC, TSF, WC, and NC (p < 0.001). The predictive ability of anthropometric measurements in estimating hand grip strength was thus demonstrated in a large population of healthy young adults. Significant regression was found, with an R2 value of 0.556. Hand grip strength increased by 0.282 kg for each centimeter of height and by 0.135 kg for each centimeter of MAC. The hand grip strength of male participants was 0.424 kg greater than that of females. Height, MAC, TSF, and sex were significant predictors of hand grip strength. Conclusion: According to our results, variability in hand grip strength among healthy subjects can be explained by height, MAC, TSF, WC, HC, age, and sex. The estimation of hand grip strength could be established based on these demographic and anthropometric variables.

Yılmaz, Hacı Ömer; Zemzemoglu, Tuba Eda Arpa
Background: Obesity is a serious health problem that threatens public health. There are limited researches exploring the relationship between obesity and eating disorder risk and intuitive eating. The purpose of this study was to determine the rate of eating disorder risk and obesity, and identify the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and eating disorder risk and intuitive eating among young adults. Methods: This cross-sectional study enrolled 1216 young adults. The data were obtained through a questionnaire consisted of three sections of socio-demographic information in the first part, Intuitive Eating Scale-2 (IES-2) in second part and Eating Attitudes Test-26 (EAT-26) in third part. Weight, height, and BMI of participants were also measured by researchers. Results: The overall overweight/obesity rate of the participants was 16% (male=25.9%; female=10.9%). The rate of eating disorders risk was 24.3% in general (male=21.5%; female=25.4%). Overweight/obese had higher eating disorders risk than normal and underweight (26.7%, 23.8%, 21.6%, respectively). IES-2 score of underweight was significantly higher than overweight/obese (3.33±0.35, 3.20±0.37, respectively). Conclusion: This is the first study to examine the relationship between BMI and EAT-26 subscale showing that BMI was positively correlated with EAT-26 and negatively was correlated with IES-2 score. Therefore, BMI may be affected by eating behaviors and intuitive eating. Also, intuitive eating can be a new method of eating, and weight control and management.
