Ease in accessibility of social media brought criminals to the online world and facilitated the opportunities to do crimes in the cyber world. As the internet and social media are becoming inseparable parts of human life, it is important to make these environments safe for everyone, especially youth who are driven by social media the most. Understanding the prevalence of cyberstalking will help in finding ways to combat it and also to make a safer cyber environment. Aim: The study aims to examine the prevalence level of cyberstalking in university students between the ages of 18-30. This study will also assess the difference of cyber stalking prevalence between men and women. Materials and Methods: A preliminary investigation was made on the prevalence level of cyber stalking in university students between the age of 18-30. Cyber Obsessive Stalking Scale (Siber Obsesif Takip Ölçeği (SOTÖ)) was used to examine the stalking behaviours that people are exposed to while using electrical devices. While examining research participants, their age, gender, their anxiety about cyberstalking and if they had experienced cyberstalking or seen this behaviour in people around them were taken into account. Conclusion: Developing technology has caused criminals to move to the online world. The severity of the situation will be brought to light by revealing the prevalence of victimization through studies. The prevalence level can direct researchers and technology developers to create safer online environments.

Children abuse cases' detection and the lack of necessary interventions during childhood years cause significant physical and psychological problems until adulthood years and the future. Parents, educators, health workers, lawyers, social workers, and many professional groups should be made aware of child sexual abuse and the necessary level of knowledge should be provided. Especially, it is critically important to recognize cases of abuse against child patients in hospitals, to make necessary interventions, and to apply judicial authority. In this study, it was aimed to determine the level of knowledge, attitudes, behaviors, and intervention steps in cases of child abuse. All participants (n %100) stated that there was no poster with instructions, templates, and awareness related to child abuse and neglect, %62 of

Ataerkil ve geleneksel bir toplum yapısına sahip olan Türkiye'de uzun yıllardır devam eden bu gelenek, çocukluk çağından başlayarak kız çocuklarının ailelerinin zoruyla evlendirilmesine ve yeterli olgunluğa erişmeden anne olmalarına sebep olmaktadır. Erken yaşta evliliklerin devam etmesinde etkili olan başlıca sebeplerden biri toplumsal sorun olarak görülmeyip aksine, ailelerin yaşadığı ekonomik problemlere çözüm ve toplumsal bir gelenek olarak görülmesidir. Ebeveynlerin tutumu, yaşanan ekonomik sıkıntılar, eğitim kurumlarına erişim ve erken evliliği önlemeye yönelik programların kısıtlılığı gibi etmenler sorunun çözümünü zorlaştırmaktadır. Bu yazının amacı olgu analiz çalışması ile erken yaşta evliliğin sebeplerini ve kadınlar üzerinde olan etkilerini ortaya koymaktır. Makalemizde ele aldığımız örnek olgu çalışması ile erken yaşta evliliğin uzun ve kısa vadeli yıkıcı etkilerini gözlemlemek mümkündür. Ayrıca bu etkiler ömür boyu da sürebilmektedir. Erken yaşta evliliğin evlenmeye zorlanan çocukları, özellikle de kız çocuklarının temel hak ve özgürlüklerinden olan eğitim hakkını kısıtlayan fizyolojik ve psikolojik gelişimini olumsuz yönde etkileyerek şiddet ve istismar açısından yüksek risk altına sokmaktadır. Erken yaşta evliliğin sonlandırılması için toplumun tüm kesimleri ve yetkili kuruluşlar işbirliği içinde çalışması, başta ebeveynler olmak üzere toplumsal farkındalık arttırılmalı ve ataerkil yapıyla mücadeleye devam edilmelidir.

The group representing the "academic group" of the sample comprised a total of randomly selected 804(71.5%) participants, including senior and/or graduate students in the field of psychology and university graduates in the field of psychology or health. Regardless of the field of psychology and health, 320 participants (28.5%) were working in other fields, representing the sample’s group of "those working in other fields other than the academic group." Study’s results showed that being interested in mental illnesses plays a more significant role in awareness of both the causes and symptoms of bipolar disorder than being educated and working in the field.The participants who did research to obtain information in the field of psychology/psychiatry knew that the disorder was hereditary and didn’t a...

Manipulation differs from its purpose. Harmful manipulation has features such as suppressing the person by manipulating the person, restricting free will and showing implicit aggression. At the same time, the manipulator's motives are hidden and the goal is to benefit the manipulator.
