    Online counseling has been increasingly becoming widespread. Nevertheless, the number of studies investigating counselees' online counseling experience in-depth is scarce, especially in Turkey, despite the proliferation of the service. Therefore, this phenomenological study aims to understand the experiences of participants who received online counseling regarding satisfaction and therapeutic alliance. For this purpose, semi-structured interviews were conducted with six participants. Thematic analysis was applied to explore their satisfaction with online counseling and therapeutic alliance. The results showed that three themes emerged for satisfaction with online counseling; improvements in the symptoms, the flexibility of the online counseling, and limitations of online counseling. Thematic analysis of therapeutic alliance revealed the themes; goals, tasks, and bond. As a result, the participants reported high satisfaction with the online sessions, and they were able to establish a therapeutic alliance with their counselor in setting goals, seeking solutions to problems, and bonding. Overall, most of the participants reported positive experiences with online counseling in terms of improvement in their situation and establishing significant relationships with their counselor over the Internet.

    (Hacettepe Univ, 2024) Baskurt, Bilgesu; Zeren, Serife Gonca
    Perfectionism is a personality trait that includes high standards and aims for excellence. The university period is a period in which the individual experiences many changes, gains independence, develops new skills, increases social relations, improves academically and experiences intense emotions, such as adaptation problems, anxiety, mental fatigue and hopelessness. In this study, the aim is to investigate to what extent the fear of negative evaluation and feelings of inferiority experienced by university students during this period predict their perfectionism. A total of 466 students, determined by the cluster sampling method, comprising 246 females and 220 males, participated in the study. The Frost Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale, the Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale, and the Inferiority Feelings Scale were used to collect the data. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the data. As a result of the study, it is concluded that negative evaluation fears and inferiority feelings predict perfectionism, while feelings of inferiority are a significant predictor of perfectionism and make the most important contribution. Keywords: Perfectionism, fear of negative evaluation, feelings of inferiority

    Predicting the Altruism of Counsellor Candidates in Terms of Cultural Sensitivity, Social Desirability and Emotional İntelligence
    (Wiley, 2025) Sakar, Gozde; Zeren, Serife Gonca
    IntroductionAltruism, which is the subject of this research, generally means helping someone else without expecting anything in return. Counsellors assist other people as part of their jobs. This study examined the altruism of counsellor candidates in the context of cultural sensitivity, social desirability and emotional intelligence.MethodThe research included a total of 542 undergraduate students, 416 women and 126 men, studying in the Guidance and Psychological Counselling Department at foundation and state universities in Istanbul. The data for the study were collected with the Altruism Scale, Intercultural Sensitivity Scale, Good Impression Scale and Emotional Intelligence Trait Scale-Short Form. Multiple linear regression analysis, hierarchical regression analysis and structural equation modelling mediation analysis were used to analyse the data.ResultsThe research concluded that the variables of cultural sensitivity, social desirability and emotional intelligence predicted the altruism of counsellor candidates. It was understood that the variance in altruism was explained most by cultural sensitivity, followed by social desirability and least by emotional intelligence. Psychological and social factors, particularly cultural sensitivity and social desirability, were found to be more effective than demographic variables in explaining altruism. Additionally, the SEM analysis indicated that cultural sensitivity mediated the relationship between emotional intelligence and altruism, while social desirability had a strong direct effect on altruism.ConclusionIn line with the results of research, it is recommended to increase the number and amount of content of courses in which students will have more comprehensive knowledge about cultural infrastructure related to their awareness, empathy levels, realistic perspectives and interactions with different individuals. It is suggested that social responsibility projects, club activities and Erasmus opportunities that will support the aims mentioned, in addition to course achievements, are supported by both lecturers and the university administration.
