The COVID-19 pandemic has increased negative emotions and decreased positive emotions globally. Left unchecked, these emotional changes might have a wide array of adverse impacts. To reduce negative emotions and increase positive emotions, we tested the effectiveness of reappraisal, an emotion-regulation strategy that modifies how one thinks about a situation. Participants from 87 countries and regions (n = 21,644) were randomly assigned to one of two brief reappraisal interventions (reconstrual or repurposing) or one of two control conditions (active or passive). Results revealed that both reappraisal interventions (vesus both control conditions) consistently reduced negative emotions and increased positive emotions across different measures. Reconstrual and repurposing interventions had similar effects. Importantly, planned exploratory analyses indicated that reappraisal interventions did not reduce intentions to practice preventive health behaviours. The findings demonstrate the viability of creating scalable, low-cost interventions for use around the world.

Family Functioning and Mental Health Among Turkish University Students

Asil Ali Özdoğru and Melahat Özge Şimşek

OBJECTIVE: Interactions between family members are quite important for individuals’ mental health characteristics. Family adaptation and cohesion were found to promote positive mental health outcomes. On the other hand, problematic family relationships can lead to emotional and behavioral problems among family members. This study aims to explore the relationships between family functioning and mental health conditions of Turkish university students. METHODS: The participants of the study were 263 psychology undergraduate students (33 males and 230 females) at a foundation university in İstanbul. Students completed Turkish versions of the Family Adaptability and Cohesion Scale (FACES-IV) and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). FACES-IV is a 42-item measure that assesses adaptability and cohesion dimensions of family dynamics on a 5-point Likert scale that include six subscales of balanced cohesion, balanced flexibility, disengaged, enmeshed, rigid, and chaotic. SDQ is a 25-item scale that assesses broad strengths and weaknesses regarding emotional and interpersonal adjustment on a 3 point Likert scale that include subscales of emotional symptoms, conduct problems, hyperactivity, peer problems, prosocial behavior, and also a total difficulty score. RESULTS: Correlation analyses showed that there were statistically significant relationships between FACES-IV and SDQ subscale scores. SDQ difficulty scores were negatively correlated with cohesion, flexibility, communication, and satisfaction but positively correlated with disengagement, rigidity, and chaotic. SDQ prosocial behavior scores were positively correlated with cohesion, flexibility, communication, and satisfaction but negatively correlated with disengagement and chaotic. CONCLUSIONS: Findings showed that family functioning has a meaningful relationship with mental health characteristics of Turkish university students. Mental health was positively related to family cohesion, flexibility, communication, and satisfaction, on the other hand, had a negative relationship with disengaged, rigid, and chaotic family functioning. These results add support to earlier findings on the relationship between family interactions and mental health and offer new questions for future studies.

Multicultural Attitudes of Turkish Teachers and Their Attitudes Towards Refugee Students

Asil Ali Özdoğru, Fatma Nur Dolu, Ayşenur Akan, and Sena Aldemir

Objective: The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between teachers’ multicultural attitudes, their attitudes towards refugee students, and sociodemographic characteristics of teachers. Methods: The participants of this study consisted of 135 teachers working in different educational levels in Turkey that were reached through snowball sampling. Ages of the participants ranged from 23 to 62 (M=38.70, SD=7.97) and 55 of them were female (41%) and 79 male (59%). Participants completed an online survey including demographic questions, the Teacher Multicultural Attitude Survey (TMAS), and the Refugee Student Attitude Scale (RSAS). Results: Correlation analysis revealed a statistically significant correlation between the TMAS and RSAS total scale scores [r(124)= 0.23, p<.05]. TMAS total scores were also significantly correlated with RSAS communication subscale scores [r(125)=0.28, p<.01] and the RSAS competency subscale scores [r(128)=0.18, p<.05]. The scale scores did not differ significantly for the variables of gender, traveling abroad, multicultural experience, presence of refugee students in the class, and professional training about refugees. However, there was a significant effect of city size on teachers’ TMAS scores [F(3, 127)=4.09, p<.05]. Teachers who have spent most of their lives in a metropolis (M=73.89, SD=9.73) had higher TMAS scores than those have lived in cities (M=78.21, SD=6.03). Conclusions: There was a positive relationship between teachers’ multicultural attitudes and their attitudes towards refugee students. Teachers who had higher levels of multiculturalism had more positive attitudes in communication and competency with refugee students as well as overall attitudes toward refugee students. Multiculturalism was also found to be positively influenced by living in a metropolis. Implementations and policies that aim to improve teachers’ attitudes towards refugee students should support teachers’ multicultural attitudes.

Work by Flavell, Beach, and Chinsky indicated a change in the spontaneous production of overt verbalization behaviors when comparing young children (age 5) with older children (age 10). Despite the critical role that this evidence of a change in verbalization behaviors plays in modern theories of cognitive development and working memory, there has been only one other published near replication of this work. In this Registered Replication Report, we relied on researchers from 17 labs who contributed their results to a larger and more comprehensive sample of children. We assessed memory performance and the presence or absence of verbalization behaviors of young children at different ages and determined that the original pattern of findings was largely upheld: Older children were more likely to verbalize, and their memory spans improved. We confirmed that 5- and 6-year-old children who verbalized recalled more than children who did not verbalize. However, unlike Flavell et al., substantial proportions of our 5- and 6-year-old samples overtly verbalized at least sometimes during the picture memory task. In addition, continuous increase in overt verbalization from 7 to 10 years old was not consistently evident in our samples. These robust findings should be weighed when considering theories of cognitive development, particularly theories concerning when verbal rehearsal emerges and relations between speech and memory.

Sağlıklı Bireyler ve Depresyon Hastalarında Bedenlenmiş Biliş

Asil Ali Özdoğru, Fatma Duygu Kaya Yertutanol, Elif Kocapehlivan ve Arife Buse Kement

AMAÇ: Bedenlenmiş biliş kuramına göre insandaki bilişsel süreçler bedensel ve davranışsal süreçlere bağlıdır ve bedenle ilgili özellikler tarafından şekillenmektedir. Örneğin sağlak insanlar pozitif değerliği olan kelimeleri sağ yön ile ilişkilendirirken solak insanlar sol yönü tercih etmektedir. Bu çalışmada sağlıklı bireyler ile yeğin depresyon bozukluğuna sahip bireylerin yatay ve dikey düzlemde duygu kelimelerini konumlandırmasına bakılarak bedenlenmiş bilişsel süreçlerinin karşılaştırılması amaçlanmıştır. YÖNTEM: Deneysel yönteme sahip araştırmada kontrol grubunda 3 sağlıklı, deney grubunda 3 depresyon hastası sağlak kadınla çalışılmıştır. Yaş ortalamaları kontrol grubu için 25,00 (SS=1,73), deney grubu için 38,33’tür (SS=7,51). Katılımcıların tanıları bir psikiyatrist tarafından MINI 5.0 kullanılarak tespit edilmiştir. Katılımcılardan kendilerine verilen 20 duygu kelimesini hem yatay hem de dikey koordinat düzleminde bir kâğıda yerleştirmeleri istenmiştir. Kelimelerin değerlik ve uyarıcılık düzeyleri önceden yapılan bir pilot çalışmayla belirlenmiştir (n=40). SONUÇ: Yatay düzlemde deney grubu kontrol grubuna göre tüm kelimeleri yukarı-sağa, pozitif kelimeleri yukarı, negatif kelimeleri sağa, pozitif-uyarıcılığı yüksek kelimeleri yukarı yerleştirmiştir. Dikey düzlemde ise deney grubu kontrol grubuna göre pozitif kelimeleri yukarı-sola, negatif kelimeleri yukarı, uyarıcılığı yüksek kelimeleri yukarı, uyarıcılığı düşük kelimeleri yukarı-sola, pozitif-uyarıcılığı düşük kelimeleri yukarı-sola, negatif-uyarıcılığı düşük kelimeleri yukarı yerleştirmiştir. Kelimelerin değerlik ve uyarıcılık düzeylerine göre yerleşiminde anlamlı fark bulunmamıştır. Ortalamalar karşılaştırıldığında kontrol grubu dikey düzlemde kelimeleri daha yukarı-sağa, yatay düzlemde aşağı-sağa konumlandırmıştır. TARTIŞMA: Hasta ve sağlıklı gruplar karşılaştırıldığında kelime yerleştirme koordinatları yatay ve dikey düzlem arasında fark gösterdiği gibi sağ-sol ve aşağı-yukarı yönler açısından da farklılık göstermektedir.

The COVID-19 International Student Well-being Study

Sarah Van de Velde, Veerle Buffel, Piet Bracke, Guido Van Hal, Nikolett M. Somogyi, Barbara Willems, Edwin Wouters, and for the C19 ISWS Consortium

As a large international consortium of 26 countries and 110 higher-education institutions (HEIs), we successfully developed and executed an online student survey during or directly after the initial peak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 International Student Well-being Study (C19 ISWS) is a cross-sectional multicountry study that collected data on higher-education students during the COVID-19 outbreak in the spring of 2020. The dataset allows description of: (1) living conditions, financial conditions, and academic workload before and during the COVID-19 outbreak; (2) the current level of mental well-being and effects on healthy lifestyles; (3) perceived stressors; (4) resources (e.g., social support and economic capital); (5) knowledge related to COVID-19; and (6) attitudes toward COVID-19 measures implemented by the government and relevant HEI. The dataset additionally includes information about COVID-19 measures taken by the government and HEI that were in place during the period of data collection. The collected data provide a comprehensive and comparative dataset on student well-being. In this article, we present the rationale for this study, the development and content of the survey, the methodology of data collection and sampling, and the limitations of the study. In addition, we highlight the opportunities that the dataset provides for advancing social science research on student well-being during the COVID-19 pandemic in varying policy contexts. Thus far, this is, to our knowledge, the first cross-country student well-being survey during the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in a unique dataset that enables high-priority socially relevant research.
