Öğe Development and Psychometric Evaluation of the Epilepsy Self-Management Scale for Teachers(Wiley, 2025) Kos, Fulya Merve; Bektas, Murat; Ayar, DijleThis study was conducted to develop a measurement tool to achieve epilepsy self-management in teachers and examine its Turkish psychometric properties. This descriptive, comparative, correlational, and methodological study was conducted between May and August 2022 with 346 teachers between the ages of 24 and 67 working in public schools selected by simple random sampling method among the primary schools in the province where the research was conducted. In the descriptive data analysis, numbers, percentages, and averages were used in the psychometric analysis of the scale, content validity analysis, factor analysis, Cronbach's alpha, item-total correlation, and split-half method. The average age of the teachers included in the study was 31.14 + 2.27, of which 68% (n = 234) were women. In total, 90% of the teachers (n = 312) stated that they did not have the correct intervention information about epilepsy. The scale, which is a 5-point Likert type, consists of 23 items and three subdimensions. The scale's total Cronbach's alpha coefficient is 0.83, and the subdimension Cronbach's alpha values are, respectively, the first subdimension is 0.78, the second subdimension is 0.91, and the third subdimension is 0.65. Item-total score correlations ranged between 0.31 and 0.81 (p < 0.05). As a result of the exploratory factor analysis found that the three-dimensional scale explained 42% of the total variance, and the item factor loads varied between 0.38 and 0.89. As a result of the confirmatory factor analysis, the fit indices were > 0.90, and the RMSEA value was < 0.08. The primary purpose of this study is to develop the Epilepsy Self-Management Scale for Teachers.Öğe Development and psychometric evaluation of the Ketogenic Diet Management Scale for Children with Epilepsy-Parent Form(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2024) Ayar, Dijle; Bektas, Murat; Unalp, Aycan; Yilmaz, Uensal; Kos, Fulya Merve; Yavuz, Merve; Parlak, Ipek BurcuThis study was conducted to develop a measurement tool to achieve ketogenic diet management in parents of children with epilepsy and examine its Turkish psychometric properties. The study was conducted on 317 parents using a descriptive correlational method. Data analysis and evaluation were performed using factor analysis, Cronbach's alpha, and item - total score correlation. The scale consists of 20 items and unidimensional factor. As a result of the exploratory factor analysis, the total explained variance of the unidimensional factor was 63.809%. Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the scale was 0.971. The four-weeks test-retest reliability evaluated with intra-class correlation was 0.87. Confirmatory factor analysis indicated, the model fit index results were recorded as follows: 0.95 as the Goodness-of-Fit Index; comparative fit index, 0.96 and normed fit index, 0.94. The study determined that the Ketogenic Diet Management Scale for Children with Epilepsy-Parent Form is a measurement tool that can be used by health professionals and that is used to evaluate parents' ketogenic diet knowledge.Öğe Öğretmenlerin Epilepsiye Yönelik Bilgi ve Tutumlarına Eğitimsel Müdahalelerin Etkisi: Sistematik Derleme ve Meta Analiz(2026) Kos, Fulya Merve; Bektas, Murat; Ayar, DijleBu çalışma öğretmenlere uygulanan eğitimsel müdahalelerin öğretmenlerin epilepsiye yönelik bilgi ve tutumlarına etkisini değerlendirmek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Çalışma için Ocak 2000 ile Temmuz 2024 tarihleri arasında kapsamlı bir literatür taraması yapılmıştır (Cochrane, Pubmed, Science Direct, Web of science, EBSCOHost, Embase/Elsevier ve Google Scholar). Arama sürecinde “öğretmen”, “epilepsi”, “bilgi”, “tutum” ve “eğitim müdahaleleri” kelime kombinasyonları kullanılmıştır. Genel etki büyüklüğü, heterojenlik testleri, yayın yanlılığı ve duyarlılık analizleri rastgele etkiler modeli ile gerçekleştirilmiştir.

Homojenlik testi sonuçlarına göre bilgi için Q, I2 ve Tau değerleri sırasıyla 205,797- 98,056 ve 2,331, p<0.01, tutum için ise sırasıyla 36,001- 91,667 ve 0,193, p<0.01 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Yayın yanlılığı testi sonucu her iki değişken için de yayın yanlılığının olmadığı belirlenmiştir. Sonuçlara göre, %95 GA içindeki ortalama etki büyüklükleri dikkate alındığında öğretmenlere uygulanan eğitimsel müdahalelerin öğretmenlerin epilepsiye yönelik bilgi ve tutumlarına pozitif ve yüksek düzeyde bir etki büyüklüğüne sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir (p<0,05). Öğretmenlere yönelik uygulanan eğitimsel müdahalelerin öğretmenlerin epilepsiye yönelik bilgisini arttırdığına ve tutumunu olumlu yönde değiştirdiğine dair güçlü kanıtlar bulunmaktadır.Öğe Psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Epilepsy Disclosure Scale-Youth and Parent Versions(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2022) Ayar, Dijle; Unalp, Aycan; Yilmaz, Uensal; Bektas, Murat; Karaoglu, Pakize; Akcay, Ebru; Yanar, SalihaAim: Due to reactions, such as being ridiculed, blamed, or rejected, children with epilepsy and their families may consider epilepsy as something to be ashamed of, and therefore both the child and parents hide the disease from other people. No valid and reliable measurement in Turkish language that evaluates the level of this behavior, which will greatly affect the management of epilepsy, in both children and parents has been found in the literature. This study was carried out to test the validity and reliability of the Epilepsy Disclosure Scale (EDS) - Youth and Parent Versions in Turkey. Materials and method: A descriptive, comparative, correlational, and methodological design was used in the study. The study was carried out with 200 youth with epilepsy between the ages of 8 and 18, who were registered in the pediatric neurology outpatient clinic of a university hospital located in the western region of Turkey, and their parents. The study data were collected using a Descriptive Information Form and the Turkish version of the EDS-Y and the EDS-P. The data were evaluated using content validity index, explanatory and confirmatory factor analyses, Cronbach's alpha, split-half, and item-total score correlation.Findings: The total explained variance of the Turkish version of the EDS-Y consisting of one subdimension and six items was determined as 53.55%, and the total explained variance of the Turkish version of the EDS-P consisting of one sub-dimension and six items was determined as 59.39%. Cronbach's alpha values were 0.864 for the overall Turkish EDS-Y and 0.881 for the EDS-P. According to the confirmatory factor analysis, the model fit indices of both scales were found to be above 0.90 and the factor loads of all items were greater than 0.40.Conclusion: The Turkish versions of the EDS-Y and EDS-P scales have acceptable internal consistency reliability and content and construct validity and can be used by health professionals to evaluate the concealment of epilepsy from the perspectives of both young people and parents.(c) 2022 Elsevier Inc.

Design and methods: A quasi-experimental pretest-posttest control group design was employed. The study was conducted with 108 teachers (n = 54 intervention, n = 54 control) from four primary schools affiliated with a Provincial Directorate of National Education located in the western region of Turkey. While the control group continued with the standard curriculum, the intervention group received a 12-week web-based epilepsy education program. Data were collected at 3 and 6 months post-intervention using the Descriptive Information Form, the Knowledge and Attitudes Toward Epilepsy Among School Teachers Scale, and the Epilepsy Self-Management Scale for Teachers. Data analysis included one-way and multiple ANOVA, independent samples t-tests, and Bonferroni post hoc comparisons. Results: No significant differences were found between the intervention and control groups in terms of socio-demographic characteristics (p > 0.05). After the intervention, the intervention group showed significantly higher mean scores in epilepsy knowledge, attitudes, and self-management compared to the control group (p < 0.05). Within-group analyses also revealed statistically significant improvements in all three outcome measures among teachers in the intervention group over time (p < 0.05). Conclusions and implications for practice: The web-based epilepsy education program was found to be an effective, accessible, and user-friendly tool for improving teachers' knowledge and attitudes about epilepsy, as well as enhancing their self-management skills in responding to epilepsy-related situations. Integrating such programs into teacher training may contribute to safer school environments and improved care continuity for children with epilepsy.Öğe The effect of illness-related fears of parents of children with epilepsy during the COVID-19 period on their children ' s seizure self-ef fi cacy(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, 2024) Ayar, Dijle; Bektas, Murat; Unalp, Aycan; Yilmaz, Unsal; Kos, Fulya Merve; Okur, Tuncay Derya; Kirkgoz, Hatice HilalBackground: Seizure -related self -efficacy is the belief individuals have that they can perform the necessary actions to cope effectively with their seizures. Determining, developing, strengthening, and maintaining the perception of self -efficacy in children with epilepsy facilitates the child 's disease management and their ability to cope with it. This study aimed to assess the impact of epilepsy -related parental fears during the COVID19 period on the seizure self -efficacy of their children. Methods: A total of 321 children with epilepsy and their parents participated in this descriptive, correlational, and cross-sectional study. Data were collected through the Descriptive Information Form, the Seizure SelfEfficacy Scale for Children (SSES-C), and the Epilepsy -Related Fears in Parents Questionnaire (EFPQ). Descriptive statistics, including frequency, percentage, and mean scores, were used to analyze the characteristics of the children and their parents. The Shapiro -Wilk test was utilized to assess the normality of the scale data. Pearson correlation analysis examined the relationship between parents ' epilepsy -related fears and their children 's seizure self -efficacy, while multiple regression analysis determined the effect of parental fears on children 's seizure self -efficacy. Results: The mean age of children included in the study was 12.65 2.37 years. Analysis revealed a strong and significant negative correlation between parents ' epilepsy -related fears during the COVID-19 period and the seizure self -efficacy of their children. In the model created with regression analysis, The mean scores of parents on the short-term fears of parents about epilepsy of the EFPQ explained 85 % of children 's seizure self -efficacy. The mean scores of parents on the long-term fears of parents about epilepsy of the EFPQ explained 85 % of children 's seizure self -efficacy. It was determined that all of these variables together explained 85 % of the seizure self -efficacy of children with epilepsy. Conclusion: The findings of the study underscore the importance of addressing parents ' fears regarding epilepsy, emphasizing the need for healthcare professionals to be aware of and provide support for these concerns. Future studies should focus on interventions to enhance the seizure self -efficacy of children with epilepsy. (c) 2024 French Society of Pediatrics. Published by Elsevier Masson SAS.

The research was carried out with 270 nursing students who had already taken or were taking the child health and diseases nursing course. Data were collected using a Nursing Student Information Form, the Barnett Liking of Children Scale, the Nursing Students' Attitudes toward Clinical Practices Scale, and the Pediatric Nursing Student Clinical Comfort and Worry Assessment Tool. Mean values, percentage calculations, and linear regression analysis were used for the analysis of the research data. Participants' mean scores were 52.30 +/- 6.16 on the Barnett Liking of Children Scale, 103.72 +/- 19.35 on the Nursing Students' Attitudes toward Clinical Practices Scale, 15.61 +/- 3.74 on the comfort sub-dimension, and 11.63 +/- 4.32 on the worry sub-dimension of the Pediatric Nursing Student Clinical Comfort and Worry Assessment Tool. It was determined that the liking of children and attitudes toward clinical practice explained 43.6% of the clinical comfort level of pediatric nursing students in Model 1 and 45.2% of their clinical worry level in Model 2. It was determined that the liking of children and attitudes toward clinical practice significantly affected the comfort and worry levels of nursing students in the pediatric clinic.Öğe The effect of parental phubbing on adolescents' smartphone addiction and phubbing behavior(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2025) Kos, Fulya Merve; Akdeniz Kudubes, Asli; Ayar, Dijle; Kudubes, Ismet Emir; Bektas, MuratParental phubbing, defined as parents' tendency to ignore their children by focusing on smartphones, has emerged as a potential risk factor for adolescents' psychosocial development and technology-related behaviors. This descriptive, correlational and cross-sectional study examined the associations between parental phubbing, adolescents' smartphone addiction, and phubbing behavior. Participants were 561 adolescents aged 14-17 years and their parents, recruited from high schools between November 2024 and July 2025. Validated instruments assessed parental phubbing, adolescent phubbing, and smartphone usage patterns. Multiple linear regression analyses were conducted, adjusting for daily internet use and parental smartphone use. Findings indicated that parental phubbing significantly predicted adolescent phubbing (beta = 0.521, p < .001) and, to a lesser extent, smartphone addiction (beta = 0.093, p < .05). Daily internet usage emerged as a stronger predictor than parental smartphone use for both outcomes. The final models explained 27.9% of the variance in adolescent phubbing and 1.5% in smartphone addiction. These results highlight the reciprocal nature of digital behaviors within families, suggesting that adolescents may model their smartphone use after parental patterns. From a psychological perspective, the findings emphasize the importance of addressing family communication and parental technology habits. Family-focused psychoeducational programs and awareness initiatives may help reduce parental phubbing, enhance parent - child interactions, and support adolescents' psychological adjustment in the digital age.Öğe The Effect of Preclinical Empowerment Education in Pediatric Nursing on Clinical Comfort, Competency of the Course, and Self-Confidence and Anxiety in Clinical Decision-Making(2025) Bektas, İlknur; Bektas, Murat; Gerçeker, Gülçin Özalp; Ayar, Dijle; Kudubeş, Aslı Akdeniz; Özdemir, Emine Zahide; Çelik, İsaObjective: This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of pre-clinical structured empowerment education of intern nursing students on self-confidence and anxiety in clinical decision-making, pediatric clinical comfort and perceived anxiety, and perceived pediatric nursing competency. Material and Methods: A quasi-experimental study design was used. A total of 64 nursing students (experimental group = 32; comparison group = 32) participated in the study. Before the clinical practice, a program that consisted of six scenarios, whose learning goals were structured, and in which pediatric skills were supported, was applied to the intern students in the experimental group for two days. The data were collected using a Student Descriptive Information Form, the Nursing Anxiety and Self-Confidence with Clinical Decision-Making Scale, the Pediatric Nursing Competency Scale, and the Pediatric Nursing Student Clinical Comfort and Worry Assessment Tool, which were applied as a pretest and posttest. The mean pre-test and post-test scores of both groups were compared. Results: There was a difference in favor of the intervention group in the worry sub-dimension of the Pediatric Nursing Student Clinical Comfort and Worry Assessment Tool (p<0.05). There was no significant difference between the mean scores of experimental and control groups on the Pediatric Nursing Student Clinical Comfort and Worry Assessment Tool and the Nursing Anxiety and Self- Confidence with Clinical Decision-Making Scale (p>0.05). There was a significant difference between the mean scores of the experimental and control groups on the Pediatric Nursing Competency Scale in favor of the intervention group (p<0.05). Conclusion: Preclinical structured empowerment training; It was observed that it increased the pediatric nursing proficiency levels of the students, decreased the clinical anxiety of the students, and did not affect the self-confidence anxiety levels in clinical decision making.Öğe The level of nursing students' self-regulated learning and academic locus of control predicting self-confidence and anxiety in clinical decision-making(Churchill Livingstone, 2025) Bektas, Lknur lknur; Kudubes, Asli Akdeniz; Ayar, Dijle; Bektas, MuratAim: This study examined the extent to which nursing students' self-regulated learning and academic locus of control predict self-confidence and anxiety in clinical decision-making. Design: This study was a cross-sectional, descriptive, and correlational study. Methods: The study sample was 627 undergraduate nursing students. Data were collected with the Student Introductory Information Form, Self-Regulated Learning Scale for Clinical Nursing Practice, Academic Locus of Control Scale, and Nursing Anxiety and Self-Confidence with Clinical Decision-Making Scale (NASC-CDM). Multiple linear regression analysis evaluated the predictive level of the variables on the self-confidence and anxiety scale subscale scores in clinical decision-making. Results: The external locus of control and learning strategies significantly explain all sub-dimensions of the selfconfidence scale in clinical decision-making. The internal locus of control and learning strategies meaningfully explain the sub-dimensions of the anxiety scale in clinical decision-making using resources to obtain information, fully listening, and knowing and taking action. Conclusion: Self-regulated learning levels of nursing students affect clinical decision-making. It was determined that students with an internal locus of control had higher self-confidence in clinical decision-making and lower anxiety levels.Öğe The Prediction of Health Literacy of Parents Who Have Children with Cancer on Their Healthcare Satisfaction(2024) Kudubeş, Aslı Akdeniz; Bektas, İlknur; Ayar, Dijle; Bektas, MuratPurpose: This study was a descriptive and cross-sectional study to examined the prediction of health literacy of parents having children with cancer on the healthcare satisfaction. Methods: The descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted between January and May 2019 and included 207 parents who had children treated at the pediatric hematology-oncology unit of a university hospital. A parental information form, the Health Literacy Index, and the Pediatric Quality of Life (PedsQL) Inventory Healthcare Satisfaction Hematology/Oncology Module parental report was used to collect the data. Percentage calculations, mean values, Pearson’s correlation analysis, linear regression analysis, and multiple correlation analysis were used to analyze the data.

Study data were collected by using a Parent Information Form, the Chalder Fatigue Scale, the Epworth Sleepiness Scale, and the Family Management Measure. Mean scores, percentage calculations, Pearson correlation analysis, and linear regression analysis were used in the analysis of data. Three models were created according to the relationship between the variables in the multiple regression analysis. In Model 1, the first sub-dimension of the disease management scale explained 59.7% of the level of fatigue and sleepiness. In Model 2, the second sub-dimension of the disease management scale explained 69.4% of the level of fatigue and sleepiness. In Model 3, the third sub-dimension of the disease management scale explained 67.5% of the level of fatigue and sleepiness. Childhood cancer is a family disease that affects parents as well as children. This is an important study revealing the effect of chronic disease management on the fatigue and daytime sleepiness of parents with children with cancer. Considering the outcomes of this study, nurses should be aware of the possible effects of disease management on the level of fatigue and daytime sleepiness. Nurses should not forget that families who cannot manage chronic diseases effectively and successfully may have high levels of fatigue and sleepiness.
