    (Cumhuriyet Univ Tip Fak Psikiyatri Anabilim Dali, 2012) Ozturk, Ulkem Angin; Atasoy, Nuray; Kurcer, Mehmet Ali; Karaahmet, Elif; Saracli, Ozge
    Objective: Although the sexual problems are commonly observed in Turkey, the community studies about the prevalence of sexual problems are rare. The objective of this study is to assess the prevalence and risk factors of female sexual dysfunction in Turkish women population in Zonguldak province. Methods: The study group consisted of 517 married women 15 to 49 years old living in Zonguldak province. The participants were administered to GRISS and sociodemographical questionnaires for the evaluation of Female Sexual Dysfunction. Findings: The mean age of participants was 36.5 +/- 7.87. According to GRISS, 45.5% of women had female sexual dysfunction. The most frequent sexual dysfunctions were vaginismus (67.3%) and sexual frequency problems (60.3%). Sexual non-sensuality problem (54.5%), sexual non-communication (54.7%), sexual avoidance (54.5%) and anorgasmia (23.8%) were among other prevalent problems. Conclusion: As a result of our study, the inadequate sexual knowledge of women, restriction of sexual talk at home and information exchange with friends being the most common method of sexual knowledge indicated that sexuality is still a taboo in our community. Also, nearly all women lacked pre-marriage sexual experience, which showed the continuing significance of virginity. (Anatolian Journal of Psychiatry 2012; 13:191-197)

    (W B Saunders Co-Elsevier Inc, 2013) Karaahmet, Elif; Konuk, Numan; Dalkilic, Alican; Saracli, Ozge; Atasoy, Nuray; Kurcer, Mehmet A.; Atik, Levent
    Objective: High comorbidity ratio of bipolar mood disorder (BMD) with Axis I and Axis II diagnoses is reported in the literature. The possible relationship between BMD and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in all age groups has been attracting more attention of researchers due to highly overlapping symptoms such as excessive talking, attention deficit, and increased motor activity. In this study, we aimed to investigate the prevalence of ADHD cornorbidity in BMD patients and the clinical features of these patients. Methods: Of 142 patients, who presented to the Bipolar Disorder Unit of Zonguldak Karaelmas University Research and Application Hospital between the dates of August 1, 2008 and June 31, 2009 and diagnosed with BMD according to DSM-IV criteria consecutively, 118 patients signed informed consent and 90 of them completed the study. They all were in euthymic phase during the study evaluations. A sociodemographical data form, Wender-Utah Rating Scale (WURS), ADD/ADHD Diagnostic and Evaluation Inventory for Adults, and Structural Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis I Disorders, Clinical Version (SCID-I) were applied to all participating patients. Results: A total of 23.3% of all patients met the criteria for A-ADHD diagnosis along BMD. No difference was detected regarding sociodemographical features between the BMD+A-ADHD and the BMD without A-ADHD groups. The BMD+A-ADHD group had at least one extra educational year repetition than the other group and the difference was statistically significant. The BMD starting age in the BMD+A-ADHD group was significantly earlier (p=0.044) and the number of manic episodes was more frequent in the BMD+A-ADHD group (p=0.026) than the BMD without ADHD group. Panic disorder in the BMD+A-ADHD group (p=0.019) and obsessive-compulsive disorder in the BMD+C-ADHD group (p=0.001) were most frequent comorbidities. Conclusions: A-ADHD is a frequent comorbidity in BMD. It is associated with early starting age of BMD, higher number of manic episodes during the course of BMD, and more comorbid Axis I diagnoses.

    (Cumhuriyet Univ Tip Fak Psikiyatri Anabilim Dali, 2013) Karaahmet, Elif; Kiran, Sibel; Atik, Levent; Atasoy, Nuray; Saracli, Ozge; Ankarali, Handan; Konuk, Numan
    Objective: The exposure to negative acts at work is one of the main issues highlighted adverse health effects within the scope of work life's psychosocial dimension. Mobbing is defined as both the most common one among the causes of stress being at work, and also more devastating and damaging than the other stressors of the work. The aim of the present study was to examine the reliability of the Turkish version of the Negative Act Questionnaire (NAQ-TR). Methods: The questionnaire was first translated into Turkish and then back translated into English and the equivalence of both versions was determined. An expert group analyzed the formulation of the translated items and they redrafted some of them according to agreedon criteria. Subsequently, it was administered to 456 workers from 11 different workplaces. The factor structure and internal consistency of the NAQ-TR was examined. Result: The instrument showed satisfactory internal consistency with an overall Cronbach a of 0.912. The factor analysis, as opposed to the original scale, yielded four factor solution (Personal bullying and isolation, Work-related bullying, destabilization and excessive workload). We found that NAQ-TR has high internal consistency. Conclusions: The Turkish version of NAQ was found to be reliable for mobbing in workplace. It can be used in epidemylogic trials.
