Pozitif Psikolojinin Farklı Perspektiflerinin İkinci Dil Öğrenimi Üzerindeki Etkileri
Authors: CANER-YILDIRIM Sonay
Published: September 2023

Son yıllarda, pozitif psikoloji, ikinci dil öğrenimi (İDÖ) alanını giderek daha fazla etkilemektedir. İDÖ'deki pozitif psikoloji ile ilgili iki farklı yaklaşım bulunmaktadır: biri, negatif duygulardan ayrılarak yalnızca pozitif duygulara odaklanan; diğeri ise bu duyguları birbirinden ayırmadan eşlik eden olarak ele alan. Bu bağlamda, hem pozitif hem de negatif duyguları bir arada değerlendiren "zihinsel karşılaştırma ve uygulama planları" (ZKUP) adlı öz-düzenleme stratejisi ve sadece pozitif duygulara odaklanan "olumlu düşünme" (OD) stratejisi kullanılarak yarı-deneysel bir çalışma yürütülmüştür. Bu stratejilerin beşinci sınıf öğrencilerinin İngilizce dersindeki okul motivasyonu ve akademik başarısı üzerindeki etkileri incelenmiştir. Müdahaleden sonra, gruplar arasında öz bildirime dayalı okul motivasyonunda anlamlı bir fark bulunmamıştır. Bununla birlikte, hem pozitif hem de negatif duygulara odaklanan ZKUP stratejisi uygulanan grubun akademik başarısı, yalnızca pozitif duygulara odaklanan pozitif düşünme stratejisi uygulanan gruba göre anlamlı derecede daha yüksektir. Sonuçlara göre, pozitif psikolojide yalnızca olumlu duygulara odaklanmak yerine olumsuz duygulara da gereken önemi vermek, insanların dil öğrenme hedeflerine başarıyla ulaşmalarına yardımcı olmak için daha etkili olabilir. Akademik performansı artırmadaki etkinliği nedeniyle, uygulayıcılar, öğrencilerin akademik hedeflerine ulaşmalarına yardımcı olmak için öğrencilerin sınıf seviyelerine göre ZKUP formları oluşturabilir ve kullanabilirler.
Öğretmen Görüşleri Doğrultusunda Değer Aktarımının Gerçekleşmeme Nedenleri
Authors: EKİCİ Özcan
Published: September 2023

Değerler toplumun geneli tarafından kabul edilen, bireyin davranışları üzerinde etkili olan ve toplumsal bütünlüğü sağlayan özelliklerdir. Toplumlar fertleri arasında uyumun sağlanabilmesi ve toplumsal düzenin devamı için değerlerini aynı zamanda yeni nesillere aktarmak isterler. Çünkü değerlerin aktarılmaması durumunda toplumda birçok sosyal sorun ortaya çıkar. Günümüzde birçok sosyal sorunun ortaya çıkması nedeniyle, bu araştırmanın amacı ‘ değer aktarımının gerçekleşmemesinin nedenlerini’ öğretmen görüşleri doğrultusunda belirleyebilmektir. Araştırmanın amacı doğrultusunda bu çalışma temel nitel araştırmaya uygun olarak gerçekleşmiştir. Bu araştırmanın çalışma grubunu Diyarbakır il merkezinde ortaokullarda görev yapan toplam 51 Sosyal Bilgiler öğretmeni oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada verilerin elde edilebilmesi için araştırmacı tarafından uzman görüşlerine başvurularak geliştirilen yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu kullanılmıştır. Görüşme sonunda elde edilen veriler içerik analizi ile çözümlenmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda değer aktarımının medyadaki olumsuz örnekler, toplumsal yapıdaki değişimler, teknolojik gelişmelere uyum sağlayamama, ebeveynlerin çalışma hayatında yer alması, bilgilerin davranışa dönüşmemesi, değerlere önem verilmemesi, okulda verilen eğitimin yetersizliği ve kültürel asimilasyonun etkisiyle gerçekleşmediği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Bununla birlikte değer aktarımının gerçekleşmesi durumunda bireyler arasında eşitlik, toplumsal hayatta huzur, fertler arası işbirliği, suç oranının azalması, farklılıklara hoşgörü, sorumluluk duygusunda artma, toplumsal sorunlarda azalma ve barış ortamının oluşacağı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Ayrıca değer aktarımının edebi eserler, toplumsal yaşam, dijital oyunlarla öğrenme, aile içi rol model olma, iletişim platformları, okuldaki eğitim yoluyla, sosyal çevreden etkilenme ve kitle iletişim araçları yoluyla gerçekleşebileceği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

Öğretmenlerin mesleki gelişimleri, sınıf içi uygulamaları, çocuklarla etkileşimleri ve erken çocukluk eğitiminde kaliteye olan etkisi öğretmenlerle ilgili temel araştırma alanlarını içermektedir. Ayrıca araştırma sonuçları erken çocukluk öğretmen eğitimi alanındaki araştırma konularının güncel ve teknolojik gelişmelere paralel olduğunu göstermektedir. Erken çocukluk eğitimini ulusal düzeyde öncelikli politika konusu yapmak kanıt temelli uygulamaların geliştirilmesi için araştırma odağını güçlendirecektir.
Türk ve Fransız Öğrencilerin Tarihsel Bilgi Algısı
Authors: TOPÇU Ersin
Published: September 2023

Tarih geçmişten günümüze her daim yeni nesillerin istenilen düşünce yapısına sahip olabilmesi için önemle üzerinde durulan bir alan olmuştur. Bu amaç aynı zamanda devletlerin kendi çıkarlarına ters düşen herhangi bir konuyu kendi nesillerine farklı şekilde öğretmelerine sebep olabilmektedir. Bu nedenle yeni nesilleri temsil eden öğrencilerin, kendilerine tarih adı altında doğru diye anlatılan olayların ötesinde hepsini içine alan tarihsel bilgi kavramına nasıl yaklaştıklarının tespiti son derece önemlidir. Bu araştırmada da çoğunlukla düşmanlıklarla dolu ortak tarihe sahip iki toplum olan Türk ve Fransız öğrencilerin tarihe bakış açılarının tespit edilerek tarihsel temeli olan problemlerin çözümlenmesine yardımcı olmak ya da ileride olması muhtemel problemlere şimdiden engel olmak adına sürece katkı sağlamak amaçlanmaktadır. Tarama yönteminin kullanıldığı ve 76 Türk, 71 Fransız olmak üzere toplamda 147 7. sınıf öğrencisinin çalışma grubu olarak belirlendiği araştırmadan elde edilen veriler betimsel analiz yöntemiyle çözümlenmiştir. Elde edilen bulgulara baktığımızda Türk ve Fransız öğrencilerin genel olarak tarihsel bilgiye dolayısıyla tarihe bakış açılarında önemli farklılıkların olduğu söylenebilir. Türk tarih eğitiminin Fransız eğitimine kıyasla öğrencilere, kendisini kabul ettirmekte zorlandığı, araştırılan boyutlar dikkate alındığında Fransız öğrencilerin Türklere kıyasla tarihsel bilgiye çok daha fazla güvendikleri araştırmadan elde edilen önemli sonuçlardandır. Araştırma sonucunda karşılaştırmalı olarak birinci el tarihsel kaynakların derslerde çok daha fazla kullanılmasının öğrencilerde tarihsel bilgiye olan bakış açısını olumlu yönde değiştireceği önerilmektedir.
The Trends in Entrepreneurship and STEM Education Studies: A Bibliometric Study
Authors: KAYA-CAPOCCI Sıla
Published: September 2023

STEM education and entrepreneurship have gained increasing attention with the advancement of technology and globalization. Various research has shown the importance of STEM education and entrepreneurship separately, but a growing number of studies is now to point to their connection due to the utmost importance of innovation in STEM. The results of a non-systematic literature review, however, indicate that although there is review research on STEM education and entrepreneurship separately, there is no research on their relationship. This study examines the relationship between STEM education and entrepreneurship using bibliometric and co-occurrence analyses to identify trends and suggest future research directions. Using the Web of Science database, 2865 publications were identified on the topic. Following the selection and eligibility process, the study was conducted with remaining 61 publications. The Vosviewer and HistCite software were used for the analysis. The analysis focused on the distribution of the research categories according to the number of publications, distribution of publications according to the yearly citations, countries, and authors, the trending keywords, and the analysis of the journals. The results showed that the topic is becoming more popular between education and educational research as well as business and management. There was significant increase in the studies published in 2020, which may be the result of government documents published in this year. This study shows the need for further research on entrepreneurship and STEM and recommends future research to focus more on the importance of sustainability and gender issues in entrepreneurship and STEM integration.

Analysis of the results showed that the original structure of the scale was preserved. Confirmatory factor analysis results, it was concluded that the scale structure had good or acceptable fit indexes. In addition, the t-values for the comparison of the item-total correlation coefficients and the 27% lower/upper group averages also provide data on the scale structure. Regarding reliability, Cronbach Alpha and Spearman-Brown two-half test reliability coefficients showed that the scale had a reliable structure. Result of analysis, sufficient evidence was obtained that the scale, which was adapted into Turkish, has a valid and reliable structure.
Algunas claves para salir del laberinto de la gestación por sustitución en el ordenamiento jurídico español
Authors: Salazar Benítez Octavio
Published: September 2023

Los contratos de gestación por sustitución son nulos de pleno derecho en nuestro ordenamiento jurídico. Al mismo tiempo, en nuestro país es posible el reconocimiento de los hijos nacidos mediante esta práctica en países donde estos contratos son legales. De esta manera, nos encontramos ante un perverso laberinto jurídico que, desde una perspectiva de género y feminista, no tendría más salida que la prohibición de una práctica que lesiona la dignidad de las mujeres y de los menores de edad. Una práctica que hay que situar en el contexto de una lógica neoliberal que mercantiliza e instrumentaliza de manera singular los cuerpos y capacidades de las mujeres

Background

Sarcopenic dysphagia is characterized by difficulty swallowing due to loss of whole‐body skeletal and swallowing muscle mass and function. Despite multiple reports regarding sarcopenic dysphagia, no verified diagnostic methods exist. The purpose of this study was to develop a diagnostic algorithm for sarcopenic dysphagia and verify its reliability and validity.

Methods

First, our research group, the Working Group on Sarcopenic Dysphagia, developed a diagnostic algorithm for sarcopenic dysphagia. Patients 65 years and older who could follow commands were eligible for assessment using the algorithm. Patients without whole‐body sarcopenia, with normal swallowing function, and with a disease that was an obvious cause of their dysphagia were considered not to have sarcopenic dysphagia. Then, swallowing muscle strength was assessed by tongue pressure. Those with poor swallowing muscle strength were deemed to be at probable risk for sarcopenic dysphagia and those with normal swallowing muscle strength to be at possible risk for sarcopenic dysphagia. Second, we applied the algorithm to inpatients 65 years and older and investigated their characteristics, muscle mass, muscle strength, motor function, swallowing muscle strength, swallowing function, and nutritional status. We investigated the reliability of the algorithm by analyzing intra‐ and inter‐class correlation coefficients using kappa statistics. Third, we investigated the validity of the algorithm by analyzing the difference in the proportion of patients with sarcopenic dysphagia between the no malnutrition and malnutrition groups and investigated the risk factors for sarcopenic dysphagia using logistic regression analysis.

Results

A total of 119 patients participated in this study. Their mean age was 86.1 years, and 55 (46%) were men. Among the 119 patients, 32 were categorized as having possible sarcopenic dysphagia, 18 probable sarcopenic dysphagia, and 69 no sarcopenic dysphagia. The intra‐class coefficient for the algorithm was 0.87 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.73‐1.01), and the inter‐class coefficient was 0.98 (95% CI: 0.92‐1.02), indicating high intra‐ and inter‐rater reliabilities. In the investigation of the algorithm's validity, 67 patients were analyzed. The proportion of patients with sarcopenic dysphagia was significantly higher in the malnutrition than in the no malnutrition group (P = 0.028). Malnutrition and age were independently associated with sarcopenic dysphagia (P = 0.013 and 0.003, respectively).

Conclusions

A diagnostic algorithm for sarcopenic dysphagia was developed, and its reliability and validity were verified. All older patients with sarcopenia or dysphagia should be assessed for sarcopenic dysphagia, which requires treatment involving not only rehabilitation for dysphagia but also nutritional improvement.
Quando Ser e Conviver é a única Resposta: Direitos Humanos como Possibilidade Educativa
Authors: Cavalcanti Vanessa Ribeiro Simon
Published: September 2023

Drawing inspiration from Judith Butler’s thought-provoking statement, “the Other is there as a being to be sought,” this article explores the pressing need for academic research and institutions involved in migrant reception to gather information, share best practices, and foster the three Is: insertion, inclusion, and integration. This is particularly relevant in light of recent migration movements towards Europe. The call is clear – we must actively seek out the experiences of migrants and affirm respect and recognition for their humanity. The fundamental question posed is, “Who needs human rights?” The answer lies with those individuals who possess the inherent virtue of their humanity and should not be reliant on documents, walls, or exclusionary practices. Boaventura de Sousa Santos, Cecília MacDowell Santos, and Bruno Sena Martins (2019) challenge us to consider the sufferings that remain unseen by the dominant legal and political discourse on human rights.
Conceptualización jurídica en tanto mediación ética: el caso del derecho a la muerte digna en Colombia
Authors: Corzo Laverde Herwin Andrés , Chaves Gómez Sara , Jaramillo Manzano Juan David , Caicedo Ardila Nathally , Cerón Arboleda Paula
Published: September 2023

This text arises in response to the following question: what is the role of legal concepts in relation to ethical debates that intersect with the use of law? To address this, the right to a dignified death in the Colombian legal context will be taken as a case study. Through a textual analysis of legal norms and documents with theoretical-legal claims, it will be shown that the exercises of conceptual definition in the field of law respond to the operationalization from ethical assessments towards legal instruments. Subsequently, this will be exemplified through the specific utilization of this phenomenon by an ethical standpoint, decidedly committed to the right to a dignified death within the Colombian constitutional framework. To achieve this, examples of authors and corporations that uphold a negative view on euthanasia will be presented. Thus, it will be shown that it is necessary to assume the mediation of legal concepts regarding value judgments and to operationalize the legal contents so that they correspond to the ethics of autonomy and dignified death.

Published: September 2023

La presente investigación titulada El desarollo del componente léxico-semántico en escolares con discapacidad intelectual, responde a la necesidad de fundamentar las bases anatomofisiológicas del retraso secundario del lenguaje como parten de los criterios y enfoques de diferentes autores con respecto al desarrollo del retraso secundario del lenguaje específicamente en escolares con diagnóstico de discapacidad intelectual, que tienen una edad de lenguaje inferior a su edad mental donde los aspectos que más condicionan el nivel de perturbación del lenguaje de estos son las dificultades en la conceptualización y en el descubrimiento de las estructuras lingüísticas. Con la aplicación de diferentes métodos de nivel teórico y empírico, permitió constatar que los escolares objeto de estudio presenta marcadas dificultades en el desarrollo del componente léxico-semántico, caracterizado por limitaciones en el empleo de sustantivos, adjetivos y verbos, que afectan el lenguaje impresivo y expresivo. Para dar respuesta a estas necesidades se propone una multimedia educativa conformada por módulos, según diferentes ejes temáticos, estos se componen de videos didácticos organizados en forma creciente de dificultad y complementados por láminas, fotografías, canciones juegos y ejercicios que permiten el refuerzo y la sistematización de los objetivos propuestos. Por lo que se declara como el objetivo general: proponer una multimedia educativa que contribuya al desarrollo del componente léxico-semántico en escolares con retraso secundario del lenguaje asociado a una discapacidadintelectual.

Refuerzo Positivo para Afrontar la Separación de Pareja: Estudio de Caso, Chiclayo 2021
Authors: Fernández Díaz Edulgerio
Published: September 2023

Objetivo: Determinar los efectos del refuerzo positivo en el afrontamiento de la separación de pareja: Estudio de caso, Chiclayo 2021. Método: Se realizó una investigación experimental, con un diseño tipo caso único intrasujeto; Se utilizaron reforzadores positivos con el fin de cambiar permanentemente las conductas negativas generadas por el maltrato psicológico y la separación de la pareja. Para conocer las estrategias de afrontamiento utilizadas por los pacientes se utilizó el Inventario de Estrategias de Afrontamiento (CSI), el cual se aplicó como pretest y postest. Resultados: Se observó que la evaluada utiliza con mayor frecuencia la estrategia de expresión emocional con un percentil de 85, lo que significa que centra su atención en sus emociones, las cuales la desbordan y no le permiten centrar su atención en la reestructuración cognitiva para resolver sus problemas. Tras la aplicación del programa a través de reforzadores positivos como extinción de conductas aversivas, recompensa social, autoimagen y autoconcepto positivos, diálogo con familiares y amigos, interacción social, retroalimentación informativa y cambios estratégicos de pensamiento y acción, se ha posible avanzar de manera significativa, en la medida en que la atención se ha centrado en la solución del problema. Conclusiones: Se ha logrado empoderar a la paciente en la medida en que ha dejado de criticarse y verse como una mujer con poder y con ganas de hacerse cargo de sí misma; la dependencia emocional y económica ha dejado de ser una constante; la evasión de problemas la ha transformado en potencialidades afectivas, maternas y laborales: mentalmente se siente fortalecida al poder enfrentarse a su expareja para dialogar y decidir sobre el futuro de los hijos; ha llegado a concebir que la autorrealización depende de ella y que ser feliz no es una idea, sino una decisión personal.

Addiction, albeit some disbelievers like Mark Lewis [1], is a chronic, relapsing brain disease, resulting in unwanted loss of control over both substance and non- substance behavioral addictions leading to serious adverse consequences [2]. Addiction scientists and clinicians face an incredible challenge in combatting the current opioid and alcohol use disorder (AUD) pandemic throughout the world. Provisional data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) shows that from July 2021-2022, over 100,000 individuals living in the United States (US) died from a drug overdose, and 77,237 of those deaths were related to opioid use [3]. This number is expected to rise, and according to the US Surgeon General it is highly conceivable that by 2025 approximately 165,000 Americans will die from an opioid overdose. Alcohol abuse, according to data from the World Health Organization (WHO), results in 3 million deaths worldwide every year, which represents 5.3% of all deaths globally [4].

Was Dionysus a Music Therapist?
Authors: Hosie Kiara
Published: September 2023

In the Ancient Greco-Roman world, Dionysus was the deity to call upon for all things relating to intoxication, ritual madness, and religious ecstasy. Living firmly in the realm of festivity and celebration, he appears to be a one-dimensional pleasure deity. But what if Dionysus was more than simply the god of parties? I propose the potential therapeutic value of Dionysian (ecstatic) music by applying both ancient and modern interpretations to close readings of Ancient Greco-Roman mythological texts. In section one, I define Dionysian music against its more demonstrably therapeutic Apollonian counterpart, drawing from a variety of Ancient writers including Homer, Euripides, and Ovid. While this section emphasizes negative psychological effects of Dionysian music, section two argues that the mythical hero-musician, Orpheus, links Apollo to Dionysus and thus suggests the therapeutic potential of Dionysian music. I further this argument in section three through a discussion of how Dionysian music can be interpreted by Plato, Aristotle, and modern psychologists as therapeutic due to its ability to both express and regulate emotions. I conclude that although Dionysus does not belong amongst modern music therapists, his presence is certainly at home in modern theories of music therapy.
Attending to the Full Moral Landscape
Authors: Sanford Beck Christopher
Published: September 2023

This article explores the potential of recognizing ethical obligations to the other-than-human world. In particular, I emphasize how emotional responses to other-than-human beings reflect a proper apprehension of the moral landscape, which then allows ethical insights into our obligations towards others. Although this article overlaps with other work in environmental ethics, I specifically relate Margaret O. Little’s moral epistemology to our emotional experiences with the other-than-human to illustrate how a gestalt shift from “humans as apart from” to “humans as embedded within” complicates the moral picture of how we live with and in this world. I argue that when humans attend to our experiences with nature in an open and caring way, we can more easily and accurately ascertain the moral significance of the other-than-human parts of nature. Affective responses reveal important details of the moral landscape. Recognizing a reality of deep interrelatedness with the other-than-human world, our emotional responses to other-than-human beings enable us to appreciate moral obligations to care for the rest of nature and consider our relationality with the other-than-human world as a moral issue.
"We are very proud and very tempted and determined to make this food"
Authors: Nawar Rodyna Saraf
Published: September 2023

Food plays a critical role in an individual’s maintenance of cultural identity and social connection. The process of preparing, sharing, and consuming cultural food (i.e., cultural foodways) serves to connect immigrants to their families, communities, and cultures—especially when experiencing a new way of living in an unfamiliar environment. Limited access to cultural food resources can contribute to feelings of isolation or a loss of culture; therefore, continual engagement in cultural food practices is crucial for migrants to maintain their identity and well-being. This study explores the relationship between cultural foodways, identity maintenance, and well-being among immigrant Muslim women. Through semi-structured interviews conducted with two immigrant Muslim women and through personal self-reflection, the intersections between gender, religion, and culture reveal the complexity of immigrant lives in relation to food. Participants describe their experiences navigating cultural food accessibility and identify how cultural food practices, especially the sharing of cultural food, affirm their cultural identity and contribute to their well-being. By engaging in cultural foodways, the participants situate their identities in the present, connect to their cultural histories, and imagine opportunities for the continued transfer of food knowledge.
Rap and Realism
Authors: Ekkel Nadia
Published: September 2023

Over a century and a half since his passing, scholars remember Gustave Courbet (1819–1877) as a French painter who expanded the boundaries of art through his rejection of traditionally imposed artistic conventions and cultivation of a larger-than-life persona. As a master of self-promotion and image creation, Courbet’s unique self-positioning and performance of identity are frequently explored within contemporary scholarship. However, extant literature has yet to consider the similarities between Courbet’s performance of identity and that of influential contemporary rap artists. Looking to artistic themes employed by the painter and his self-presentation, I argue that Courbet tailored his identity performance so that audiences conflated his artistic output with his public image, both of which drew upon his rural background to suggest a disadvantaged socioeconomic status—a background lauded by his supporters as providing Courbet with the authenticity required for artistic legitimacy. Furthermore, I argue that contemporary rap artists perform their identity in much of the same manner. Like Courbet, contemporary rap artists  continuously enact qualities associated with a low socioeconomic status and reference this social standing in their music to fuse their personal reputation and musical output, which affords these artists the authenticity required for success.

This article describes community formed within the grassroots mutual aid organization Community Food Support (CFS) located on lək̓ʷəŋən territory (“Victoria, B.C.”) and explores how components of mutual aid frameworks are employed within CFS Delivery Program’s sorting space to support the building of this community. An experiential study was constructed using a feminist activist ethnographic approach to outline the crucial role of storytelling in the CFS community. Through a thematic analysis of the data, stories of place and care addressed the research questions and pointed to the importance of connection, relationships, education, sharing, and play in establishing a collective identity and sustaining the organizing space. These findings were connected to civic muscle and creative placemaking, which highlight the capacity for mutual aid efforts to promote change and actively shape social, political, and geographic space through creative and relational means.

Katrina Trask: The Gilded Age of Philanthropy
Authors: Lute Khristeena
Published: September 2023

Katrina Trask (1853-1922) is best known for founding—both financially and idealistically—Yaddo, the artist retreat located in Saratoga Springs, New York. Spencer and Katrina Trask’s sense of service and philanthropy was informed by her love for Arthurian legends and the medieval notion of patronage, wherein the wealthy fund and support artists and writers. Trask devoted her life to serving, so much so that her own literary career has become a footnote to her charity. She began her writing career after the loss of her four young children, and over the span of her lifetime wrote essays, plays, poetry, and novels—in addition to being a prolific chronicler of events. Historical and scholarly attention on Trask should be extended beyond references to her wealth to include her literary accomplishments, not as a mere footnote but rather as an independent aspect of her life worthy of its own critical attention. In this essay, I argue that the legends of King Arthur and Faust and the ethics associated therewith directly inform Katrina Trask’s literary works and the larger notion of service throughout her lifetime.

Published: September 2023

Background and Aim:  One of the effects of having a disabled child on the parents is   the experience of anxiety. Parents, especially mothers, blame themselves for their child’s problems and disabilities, and this anxiety can endanger the child’s mental health. The  aim of this research was to investigate the effectiveness of compassion-focused therapy  on the anxiety levels of mothers with hearing-impaired children.
Methods: This study was a quasi-experimental study with a pretest/post-test design using a control group. The study population consists of all mothers with hearing-impaired children aged 30–40 years studying at Naghme School for  the  hearing-impaired  in  Yazd,  Iran. A total of 30 mothers were selected using a purposive sampling technique   and were randomly assigned into groups of control (n=15) and intervention (n=15). The intervention group received eight 90-minute sessions of compassion therapy, while the control group received no treatment. The Cattle Anxiety Questionnaire (CAQ) was used  to collect data. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics.
Results: The mean and standard deviation of the pretest CAQ score was 63.25±7.70 for the intervention group. After the treatment, the mean and standard deviation of CAQ  score was 44.02±6.32 for the intervention group. The results of ANCOVA showed an improvement in the cattle anxiety questionnaire scores of adolescents after intervention (p<0.001).
Conclusion: Compassion-focused therapy can improve the anxiety levels of parents with hearing-impaired children. Therefore, the use of this treatment method is recommended   to specialists in this field.
Keywords: Hearing-impaired; anxiety; compassion-focused therapy
Tinnitus in Traditional Persian Medicine, a Historical Perspective
Authors: Arabi Maryam , Amirian Tahereh , Jokar Assie , Heydari Mojtaba
Published: September 2023

Background and Aim: Tinnitus is a common disorder of the auditory system with a rich history dating back to ancient times. This review aims to provide a historical perspective on tinnitus in Traditional Persian Medicine (TPM) by summarizing the views of TPM scholars on its etiology and treatment.
Methods: A qualitative research (summative content analysis) was conducted, utilizing TPM texts to identify the historical perspectives of TPM scholars on tinnitus. The analysis focused on their understanding of tinnitus, its causes, and recommended treatments.
Results: In TPM, tinnitus was referred to as Tanin and Davi. The accumulation of phlegm and internal gases in the head or ears was considered as the main cause of tinnitus, with sudden movement or ripple of these vapors leading to auditory nerve stimulation and resulting in tinnitus. TPM scholars recommended addressing the sources of these vapors, such as gastrointestinal issues, and promoting humeral balance through temperament modification and the use of medicinal herbs for treatment.
Conclusion: The TPM view on tinnitus was similar to the Greco-Roman understanding  of the disease, with Persian scholars expanding on its details. TPM scholars believed in addressing the underlying causes of tinnitus and promoting humeral balance to alleviate symptoms. These historical perspectives provide insight into traditional medical systems and their approaches to the management of health conditions.

The Effect of Weighted Contact Lens on Physiological Nystagmus in Young Healthy Subjects
Authors: Ashrafi Majid , Ramin Shahrokh , Baghban Alireza Akbarzadeh
Published: September 2023

Background and Aim:  Contact lenses correct the visual functioning of patients with   low vision due to congenital nystagmus. This research presents a new method to reduce nystagmus using contact lenses in healthy subjects.
Methods: Thirty-three normal people (13 women, 20 men) aged 18 to 25 with an average age of 23.3 years participated in this study. In the studied subjects, nystagmus was evoked by an optokinetic stimulus. Then, it was measured and recorded. Next, the Conventional Contact Lens (CCL) and a special lens that was designed and made heavier than the conventional lenses were placed in the eyes of the participants. Once again, nystagmus was recorded with the optokinetic stimulus while the contact lens was placed in the participant’s eyes.
Results: No significant difference was observed for the Slow Phase Velocity (SPV) and gain of nystagmus with and without CCL (p>0.05), but this parameter had a significant difference with and without Weighted Contact Lenses (WCL) (p<0.05). Also, the comparison between the two lenses demonstrated a significant difference (p<0.05), which indicates the positive effect of the WCL in reducing the SPV and gain of nystagmus.
Conclusion: Using weighted contact lenses can significantly reduce the SPV and gain     of optokinetic nystagmus in healthy subjects. Investigating the effect of this lens in inhibiting pathological nystagmus is recommended in future research.
Keywords: Nystagmus; optokinetic nystagmus; weighted contact  lens
Correlation between Aural/Oral Performance and Fit-to-Target Gain among Children with Moderate-to- Profound Hearing Loss Aged 5–10 Years

Published: September 2023

Background and Aim: Real-Ear Measurement (REM) enables proper fitting of the hear- ing aids to achieve the required level of amplification. This study aims to investigate the relationship between aural/oral performance and fit-to-target gain of hearing aids in chil- dren with moderate-to-profound hearing loss.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 30 children with moderate-to-pro- found hearing loss aged 5–10 years. First, the parents’ evaluation of aural/oral perfor- mance of children (PEACH) questioanire was completed. Then, REM was performed using digital speech at 50, 65, 80, and 90 dB SPL at 250–8000 Hz to obtain the fit to the desired sensation level, version 5 (DSL v5) target gain.
Results: A significant negative correlation was found between the total score of the PEACH (51.66) and the fit-to-target gain at high frequencies (r=–0.482, p=0.01). The maximum fit-to-target gain was 77.5 dB for 65 dB SPL at 6000 Hz. Most of the cases (75%) failed to come within ±5 dB of the target gain. There was a significant difference  in the fit-to-target gain between low and high frequencies and between high frequencies with similar input levels.
Conclusion: A negative correlation between aural/oral performance of children with moderate-to-profound hearing loss and fit-to-target gain of their hearing aids may indicate that a low fit-to-target gain can improve their aural/oral performance. Regular use of REM is recommended in prescribing hearing aids to these children.
