Öğe AGEIST ATTITUDES AND THEIR ASSOCIATION WITH BURNOUT AND JOB SATISFACTION AMONG NURSING STAFF: A DESCRIPTIVE STUDY(Gunes Kitabevi Ltd Sti, 2018) Pekcetin, SerkanIntroduction: The various factors affecting burnout and job satisfaction among nursing staff have yet to be clearly identified. Accordingly, this study examines one of those potential factors, ageist attitudes, and its relation with burnout and job satisfaction among nursing home employees. Materials and Method: This was a cross sectional multi-center study which was conducted in 2017. Ageism was evaluated using the Ageism Attitude Scale (subscales: restricting life of the elderly, positive ageism, and negative ageism); burnout level was evaluated using the Maslach Burnout Inventory (subscales: emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal satisfaction); and job satisfaction was evaluated using the Short-Form Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire. Correlation between variables were analyzed Spearman Correlation test. Results: Positive ageism was positively correlated with personal accomplishment and job satisfaction scores (p<.05) and negatively correlated with depersonalization (p<.05). Short-Form Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire scores were negatively correlated with emotional exhaustion and depersonalization and positively correlated with personal accomplishment variables (p<.05). Conclusion: Ageism negatively impacts not only elderly individuals but also the nursing staff who care for them. Educational programs to prevent ageism should be evaluated for efficiency and implemented if proven to be beneficial.Öğe The effect of one-night sleep deprivation on cognitive functions in healthy young adults(Brazilian Assoc Sleep, 2021) Pekcetin, Serkan; Ozturk, Gulnur; Cetin, Buse; Ozturk, LeventIntroduction: The effects of acute sleep deprivation on cognitive function have not been clearly elucidated. The purpose of this study was to evaluate changes in cognitive function in healthy adults after one night of sleep deprivation. Material and Methods: Twenty-one healthy young adults (aged 18-30 years) underwent assessment of cognitive functions before and after one night of total sleep deprivation and an age- and gender-matched control group was assessed before and after a normal night sleep. Cognitive functions were assessed using the Montreal cognitive assessment (MOCA) and trail making test (TMT) parts A and B. Results: General linear model repeated measures demonstrated an insignificant effect for time x group (sleep deprivation) interaction for MOCA, TMT Part A, and TMT Part B scores after one-night sleep deprivation (p>.05 for all). Conclusion: A single night of sleep deprivation, which can be inevitable in modern society, had no significant effect on cognitive performance in healthy adults.Öğe Effect of telephone-supported ergonomic education on pregnancy-related low back pain(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019) Pekcetin, Serkan; Ozdinc, Sevgi; Ata, Hilal; Can, Hilal Basak; Elter, KorayThis study investigated the effect of telephone-supported ergonomic education on pregnancy-related low back pain. This study was performed at Trakya University Hospital in Edirne, Turkey between December 15, 2016 and April 4, 2017. One hundred ten pregnant women were included in the study and randomly assigned to one of two groups. Sixty pregnant women received one face-to-face session of ergonomic education followed by three weekly sessions of telephone-supported ergonomic education (intervention group). Fifty pregnant women received only one session of standard face-to-face ergonomic education. Before and after the intervention, low back pain was evaluated using the Visual Analog Scale. Pain-related disability was evaluated with the Oswestry Disability Index, and health-related quality of life was evaluated with the SF-36. Telephone-supported ergonomic education was more effective than standard ergonomic education and can be used as an effective solution for pregnancy-related low back pain.Öğe The Efficiency of Sensory Integration Interventions in Preterm Infants(Sage Publications Inc, 2016) Pekcetin, Serkan; Aki, Esra; Ustunyurt, Zeynep; Kayihan, HulyaThis study aimed to explore the effects of individualized sensory integration interventions on the sensory processing functions of preterm infants. Thirty-four preterm infants (intervention group) at a corrected age of seven months and 34 term infants (control group) were included. The preterm infants underwent an eight-week sensory integration intervention. Before and after the intervention, the preterm infants' sensory processing functions were evaluated using the Test of Sensory Functions in Infants and compared with those of term infants. Preterm infants had significantly poorer sensory processing function preintervention when compared with term infants. There was a significant improvement in preterm infants' sensory processing functions after the sensory integration intervention. In conclusion, preterm infants should be evaluated for sensory processing disorders and individualized sensory integration interventions should be implemented.Öğe Perceived occupational competence and value among university students with premenstrual dysphoric disorder(Sage Publications Ltd, 2022) Pekcetin, Serkan; Ozdinc, Sevgi; Ata, Hilal; Can, Hilal Basak; Aydin, Nimet Sermenli; Durmus, Pelin Tas; Caliyurt, OkanIntroduction Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) is defined as a mental health issue and is assessed using DSM-V diagnostic criteria. Premenstrual dysphoric disorder comprises emotional, behavioral, and physical symptoms that occur in the premenstrual phase and resolve shortly after the start of menstruation. These symptoms and functional impairment may negatively affect occupational competence and value. This study investigated perceived occupational competence and value in university students with premenstrual dysphoric disorder. Methods This cross-sectional study was performed at a public university with 35 students with PMDD and 35 age-matched students without PMDD. Occupational competence and value were evaluated using the Occupational Self-Assessment (OSA). Results There was a significant difference between the groups in OSA competence score (p < 0.05), while there was no significant difference in OSA value score (p > 0.05). Conclusion This study demonstrated that university students with PMDD experience more occupational competence challenges than peers without PMDD. Further studies should be performed to determine the role of occupational therapy in the rehabilitation of PMDD.Öğe Psychometric Properties of the Turkish Health Enhancement Lifestyle Profile-Screener Questionnaire (T-Help-Screener)(Marmara Univ, Inst Health Sciences, 2022) Inal, Ozgu; Turan, Fatma Nesrin; Pekcetin, Serkan; Hwang, EricObjective: Healthy ageing is associated with a healthy lifestyle. The aim of this study was to evaluate the validity, reliability, and cultural adaptation of the Turkish version of the Health Enhancement Lifestyle Profile Screener (T-HELP-Screener). Methods: This study included 150 participants aged 65 years and above. Internal consistency of the T-HELP-Screener was measured using Kuder-Richardson. Test-retest reliability was performed with 66 of the 150 participants using intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Construct validity of the T-HELP-Screener was analyzed with the Healthy Lifestyle Behavior Scale-II (HLBS-II). Results: This study showed a substantially reliable level (Kuder-Richardson=0.72). The ICC for each of the T-HELP-Screener items ranged from 0.750 (95% CI = 0.590-0.847) to 0.965 (95% CI = 0.942-0.978) indicating acceptable to good test-retest reliability. There was a significant moderate correlation between the T-HELP-Screener and the HLBS-II (r s = 0.488; p =0.001). Conclusion: This study supports the psychometric properties of the T-HELP-Screener. This tool can help quickly identify older adults who need a more comprehensive assessment of their health risk behaviours. Future studies should develop and validate a Turkish version of the comprehensive 56-item Health Enhancement Lifestyle Profile (HELP).Öğe Time-use, occupational balance, and temporal life satisfaction of university students in Turkey during isolation period of COVID-19(Taylor & Francis Australia, 2022) Salar, Sinem; Pekcetin, Serkan; Gunal, Ayla; Akel, Burcu SeminPeople all over the world have needed to adapt to social distancing, movement restrictions, and change in life routines due to Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19). This study aimed to explore the relationships between time-use, occupational balance, and temporal life satisfaction of university students in Turkey during the social isolation period due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The study was conducted online in May 2020, with 128 university students of a Turkish university with the mean age of 20.27 +/- 1.49 years (Min. 18 - Max. 26 years old) from 37 cities. The measures used were the Occupational Balance Questionnaire (OBQ), the Temporal Satisfaction with Life Scale (TSWLS), and a customized question about the time-use of the students in specific occupational domains. The results indicated that individuals with lower occupational balance had less present life satisfaction (p < .001). While the time allocated to study lessons, socialization, and exercise had small positive correlations with OBQ (p <.01), watching TV had a negative correlation with OBQ (p <.05) and with 'present TSWLS' (p <.01). The mean value of 'present TSWLS' (15.45 +/- 7.54) was lower than 'past TSWLS' (21.57 +/- 6.27) and 'future TSWLS' (22.64 +/- 4.60). Evaluation of occupational balance and the time use patterns of university students during the isolation periods could be important due to its relationship with life satisfaction. This issue raises the potential need for preventive occupation-based interventions to address the mental health of the community.Öğe Validity and reliability of the Turkish Orebro musculoskeletal pain screening questionnaire-short form(Ios Press, 2022) Ozdinc, Sevgi; Pekcetin, Serkan; Can, Hilal; Ata, Hilal; Suslu, Buket; Birtane, MuratBACKGROUND: The Orebro Musculoskeletal Pain Screening Questionnaire (OMPSQ) is one of the most recognized and widely used instruments for identifying the risk of pain chronicity. OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to provide the reliability and validity of the Turkish OMPSQ-Short Form (OMPSQSF). METHODS: Fifty-seven acute and subacute low back pain patients were included in the study. OMPSQ short form and long form, Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), Central Sensitization Inventory (CSI), fear-avoidance beliefs questionnaires were applied simultaneously for validation. The OMPSQ-SF was re-applied after 7-10 days to determine test-retest reliability. The data were analyzed by the paired-samples t test, correlation analysis, Cronbach's alpha, intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and confirmatory factor analysis. RESULTS: The mean age of the participants was 39.05 +/- 15.68 years. Cronbach's alpha was 0.723, and the ICC was 0.84. There were moderate to strong correlation among the OMPSQ-SF and the ODI, CSI, OMPSQ-long form, Fear-Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire work subscale (r = 0.72, r = 0.353, r = 0.648, r = 0.457 respectively). CONCLUSION: The results show that the Turkish version of the OMPSQ-SF is a valid and reliable questionnaire and could be used in clinical and scientific studies.Öğe Validity of the Turkish Occupational Self Assessment for Elderly Individuals(Sage Publications Inc, 2018) Pekcetin, Serkan; Salar, Sinem; Inal, Ozgu; Kayihan, HulyaOccupational therapy practices in Turkey are increasing each year, but rehabilitation practitioners working in the occupational therapy field have limited instruments. The aim of this study was to analyze the validity of the Turkish version of the Occupational Self Assessment (OSA), which is based on the Model of Human Occupation. The data were analyzed using exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses to determine construct validity. The Turkish OSA was administered with the World Health Organization Quality of Life-Old (WHOQOL-OLD) and the Functional Autonomy Measurement System (SMAF) to 117 elderly individuals to determine convergent validity. The Turkish OSA has acceptable construct validity scores (exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses). SMAF and WHOQOL-OLD Scales showed a moderately significant relationship with OSA competence total scores (p < .01). The results indicate that the OSA is a valid instrument for determining occupational competence and values in elderly Turkish individuals.
