    (Journal Neurological Sciences, 2011) Ozbas, Ayfer; Kucuk, Leyla; Cavdar, Ikbal; Findik, Ummu; Yildiz, Serpil; Yildiz, Julide; Akyuz, Nuray
    Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the levels of depressive symptoms and self esteem in patients practicing clean intermittent catheterization for neurogenic bladder caused by spinal cord injury. Materials and Methods: Thirty-four patients who were on CIC for spinal cord injury, were included in this descriptive, cross-sectional study. The questionnaire prepared by the researchers was used for the determination of the demographic characteristics of the patients. The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) was used to determine the levels of depressive symptoms and the Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventory to assess the self-esteem of the patients. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 12.0. The obtained data were analyzed using %, x, t and Mann Whitney U test. Results: In this study, it was found that 55,9% of the patients showed no depressive symptoms, 11,8% low levels of depressive symptoms and 8,8% high levels of depressive symptoms. Additionally 61,8 % of the patients had low self-esteem. There were no statistically significant differences between depressive symptoms and gender, cause of trauma, level of injury, and the duration of catheterization (p >= 0.05); whereas there was a statistically significant difference between the levels of depression and the patient's age, occupational status and ability to perform self-catheterization (p <= 0.05). Conclusion: The results of this study demonstrated the importance of emotional problems and of psychosocial diagnosis and support in increasing life satisfaction in this group of patients.

Methods: This study was conducted between October 2015 and April 2016 using a descriptive, cross-sectional and comparative design. The sample of this study consisted of 96 infertile and 96 fertile women. The data were collected using an information form, the Beck Depression Inventory and the Index of Female Sexual Function. The data were analyzed The Mann-Whitney U test, chi-square test, and Spearman's correlation analysis. Results: The rate of sexual dysfunction (87.5% vs. 69.8%) and the Index of Female Sexual Function total score (31.8 +/- 7.8 vs 35.7 +/- 6.3) were significantly higher in infertile women than fertile women (p=0.003, p<0.001, respectively). The sexual satisfaction and discomfort during sexual intercourse subscales of the Index of Female Sexual Function were significantly lower among infertile women than fertile women (p<0.001 for all); however, no significant difference was observed in the sexual intercourse/libido score of the Index of Female Sexual Function between infertile and fertile women (p=0.590). The correlation coefficients between the Beck Depression Inventory total score and the total and subscale scores of the IFSF did not significantly differ between infertile and fertile women (p>0.05 for all). Conclusion: The sexual dysfunction rate among infertile women was higher than that among fertile women. Sexual functions decreased when depressive symptoms increased for both infertile and fertile women.

    (Wiley, 2012) Kutlu, Yasemin; Kucuk, Leyla; Findik, Ummu Yildiz
    In this study, the reliability, validity, and psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Fraboni Scale of Ageism were assessed. The psychometric properties of the scale were studied through a descriptive and correlational design. The study sample consisted of 231 healthy people living in the Marmara region of Turkey. In order to obtain three sets of data, a questionnaire was designed containing demographic questions and the Scale. The content validity index for the full scale was 0.98. The a coefficient for 25 items was 0.84, and the split-half reliability of the Fraboni Scale of Ageism was 0.81. The three factors represented 38.31% of the variance. In this study, we concluded that the Turkish version of the Fraboni Scale of Ageism is a suitable instrument for measuring ageism in the Turkish population.
