How does Parental Media Mediation Regulate the Association between Digital Parental Awareness and the Parent-Child Relationship?
No full textThe parent-child relationship is evolving due to the influence of technology in the digital age. Traditional family dynamics are changing, prompting parents to rethink their approach to children's development and learn how to interact effectively in digital environments. In light of these considerations, this study aims to examine the role of parental media mediation in the relationship between digital parental awareness and the parent-child relationship. The research was conducted as a cross-sectional survey study based on a quantitative research method. The sample consisted of 291 parents with preschool-age children. Data collection tools included the Demographic Information Form, Digital Parental Awareness Scale, Parental Media Mediation Scale, and Child-Parent Relationship Scale. GLM Mediation Model was performed for data analysis. The analysis revealed that parental mediation behaviors partially mediate the parent-child relationship across all dimensions of digital parental awareness, including being a negative role model, digital negligence, efficient usage, and protection from risks.Pdagogische Hochschule Heidelberg (3123
μ+μ--Pair Production at Very Low Transverse Momentum in Ultra-Peripheral Heavy-Ion Collisions
No full textIn recent works that are done at the STAR Collaboration, at small transverse momentum (p(perpendicular to)<150MeV/c) region, an excess e(+)e(-)-pair production has been observed in the peripheral collisions of gold-gold and uranium-uranium. Moreover, the ALICE Collaboration reported at low p perpendicular to a similar excess production of mu(+)mu(-)-pairs in the peripheral collisions of lead-lead. From the experiments for e(+)e(-)- and mu(+)mu(-)-pair productions at very low p(perpendicular to) that were done at the STAR and ALICE Collaborations, it is pointed out the coherent photon-photon interactions in ultra-peripheral hadronic heavy-ion collisions. In this study, we observed that muon pairs are mostly created in the transverse momentum domain of less than 0.15-GeV/c transverse momentum region like the electron-positron pairs in ultra-peripheral heavy-ion collisions. For this purpose, the impact parameter-dependent probability equations have been calculated for the STAR experiment Au+Au collisions and for the ALICE experiment Pb+Pb collisions at first. Then, we have calculated the mu(+)mu(-)-pair production cross-sections for those ions by using the Monte Carlo methods. Also, we showed the differential cross-sections for the Au+Au and Pb+Pb collisions as functions of transverse momentum p(perpendicular to), energy p(0) and invariant mass M of the produced mu(+)mu(-)-pairs for the given energy levels
Gender-Based Digital Divide and Discrimination: A Time Use Analysis in Türkiye
No full textAccess to information and communication technologies (ICTs) offers significant advantages globally. The Internet, enabling real-time interaction, is a key part of ICT. Improved access helps reduce inequalities in digital technology access between countries or groups. Examining the digital divide through gender highlights the disadvantages women face in accessing and using ICTs, potentially leading to digital discrimination. This not only contradicts the goal of ending discrimination against women but also hinders their participation in political, economic, and social spheres. In Türkiye, women have lower computer and Internet usage rates compared to men. Teaching digital skills to women could enhance their competitiveness in the labor market. This study investigates the gender-based digital divide and digital discrimination in Turkey through the Time Use Survey conducted by the Turkish Statistical Institute (Turkstat). By analyzing data on ‘computer use and programming’, ‘information acquisition via computer’, ‘communication via computer’, and ‘computer and video games’, the research explores daily time usage patterns to highlight the differences between men and women in accessing and utilizing digital technology, categorized by age groups, income levels, and education levels. Results show that, almost in all computer-related activities analyzed, men spend more time than women. 2026 selection and editorial matter, Muharrem Kılıç and Sezer Bozkuş Kahyaoğlu; individual chapters, the contributors
Endocrine Disruptors Attitude Scale: A Scale Development Study
No full textObjective: Endocrine disruptors are substances and mixtures that cause health problems in individuals and generations by affecting the endocrine system. There is no measurement tool for the assessment of people’s attitudes toward endocrine disruptors. The development of a valid and reliable measurement tool for the measurement of the attitudes of adult individuals toward endocrine disruptors is the aim of this study. Methods: This study with a methodological design was conducted with 366 participants who were at least 18 years old and literate in Turkish between December 01, 2021, and March 01, 2022, in İstanbul and Famagusta. To collect data, the “Participant Introduction Form” and “Endocrine Disruptors Attitude Scale” were used. Data were evaluated with descriptive statistics, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, dependent samples t-test, Cronbach’s α internal consistency coefficient, and Pearson correlation analysis. Results: When the item–total score correlations of 35 items in the draft scale were examined, 14 items with less than 0.30 and negative values were excluded from the scale. The correlation coefficient of all the remaining items was positive and significant (P < .001). The difference between test and retest mean scores was not statistically significant (P > .05). Cronbach’s α reliability coefficient was determined as α = 0.81 for the Consumer behavior sub-dimension, α = 0.80 for Nutrition and hygiene, and α = 0.85 for the whole scale. Conclusion: The scale is concluded to be a reliable and valid tool and can be utilized for determining the determination of attitudes of adults toward endocrine disruptors
