This research demonstrates that nurses feel pain because the pandemic process has separated them from their family and children. To examine the family relationship situation of nurses in the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. The research adopted a descriptive qualitative design. Participants were selected by the snowball method. An individual in-depth interview technique was used while the participants were away. In-depth interviews were made with a total of 27 nurses. Nine of these nurses were excluded from the study due to commu nication problems and device problems during the interview. This research showed that nurses suffered from family relationship breakdown and insufficiency in intrafamilial coping. The nurses stayed away from their families due to overtime and fear of COVID-19. They cannot meet the needs of their children and spouses for whom they are responsible, and they cannot spare time for them. They were living a tiring life with great responsibility and faced with mental problems such as burnout syndrome and depression. This study was conducted in three cities with a high number of COVID-19 cases in Turkey. We investigated three themes: Breakdown in continuity of intrafamilial relationship, ineffectiveness in role performance, and ineffective individual coping. The nurses suffer from conditions such as change in parent-infant/child relation and insufficiency in intrafamilial process coping.

Aim: We aimed to evaluate the relationship between digital game addiction tendency and depressive symptoms in children (36–72 months). Method: We conducted this research in a virtual environment with the mothers of 747 children (36–72 months). A predictive evaluation was performed using a simple regression analysis between the mean scores of the Digital Game Addiction Tendency Scale (DGATS) and the Child Depressive Symptoms Assessment Scale (CDSAS). Results: A total of 53.9% of children reported that they play games for 3–24 h a day. The average duration of children playing digital games was 2.86 ± 1.86 h per day. The total mean score of the CDSAS was 142.48 ± 27.36. The total mean score the children received from DGATS was 46.34 ± 17.28. In the regression analysis, it was determined that there was a strong positive correlation between the (DGATS) total score average and the (CDSAS) total score average (R = 0.52, R2 = 0.27, p < 0.05). Accordingly, digital game addiction tendency explains 27% of children’s depressive symptoms. Conclusions: When the standardized beta coefficient and t values are examined, it can be said that digital game addiction tendency is a significant predictor of children’s depressive symptoms.

Bu çalışma, bireylerde COVID-19 kontrolü algısı ile COVID-19 aşısına karşı tutum arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Tanımlayıcı tipte yapılan çalışmanın örneklemini 18-65 yaş arası bireyler oluştururken örneklemini kartopu örnekleme yöntemi kullanılarak 1-31 Mart 2021 tarihleri arasında araştırmaya katılan 1024 birey oluşturmuştur. Verilerin toplanmasında; kişisel bilgi formu, COVID-19 Aşısına Yönelik Tutumlar Ölçeği ve COVID-19’un Kontrolü Algısı Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde; SPSS 25.0 programı ile tanımlayıcı istatistikler ile Student t ya da Mann Whitney U testi, Tek yönlü anova ya da Kruskal-Wallis, Pearson ya da Spearman korelasyon analizi kullanılmıştır. Katılımcıların %53,7’sinin 18-23 yaş aralığında, %65,4’ünün kadın, %31,5’inin çiftçi, %68,9’unun bekar olduğu saptanmıştır. Katılımcıların %52,3’ünün COVID-19 aşısını olmayı düşündüğü, %34,1’inin aşının koruyuculuğuna güvenmediği için aşı olmayı düşünmediği ve %33,7’sinin toplumun kurallara uymasıyla COVID-19’un biteceğini düşündüğü bulunmuştur. COVID-19 Aşısına Yönelik Tutumlar Ölçeğinin toplam puan ortalaması 25,442±6,599’dur. COVID-19 aşısına yönelik olumlu tutumların yüksek düzeyde olduğu görülmektedir. COVID-19 Kontrolü Algısı Ölçeğinin Makro alt boyutunun toplam puan ortalaması 10,028±3,422’dir. Ulusal ve küresel düzeyde alınan tedbirlerin orta düzeyde yeterli olduğu bulunmuştur. Bireylerin COVID-19 aşısına yönelik olumlu tutumlarının yüksek düzeyde olduğu görülmektedir.

It is aimed to examine the reasons of Syrian migrant women getting married early. Universe selection has not been made. Participants were reached using the snowball sampling method. In this phenomenological qualitative study, 4 main themes were created with the method of description and examined. It has been determined that poverty, family coercion, love and the losses they suffered during the war are effective in the early marriage of Syrian migrant women. It has been investigated that most of the factors determined in the early marriage of Syrian migrant women are situations that develop against their will and that these women have to marry at an early age.
