Childhood trauma, dissociative experiences and ADHD symptoms in youth
(Elsevier, 2026) Songül, Derin; Ergün, Ahmet Faruk; Selman Adıyaman, Saliha Büşra; Yanık, Medaim; İnsan ve Toplum Bilimleri Fakültesi, Psikoloji Bölümü
Background: Trauma exposure and dissociative experiences can resemble attentiondeficit/ hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms in adolescence, but it is unclear whether dissociation explains trauma-related attentional symptoms by diagnostic status. Methods: We enrolled 108 youth aged 12-18 years (54 with ADHD; 54 controls) from a child and adolescent psychiatry outpatient service in Türkiye. Youth completed the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ) and Adolescent Dissociative Experiences Scale (A-DES); parents completed the Conners Parent Rating Scale-Revised Short Form (CPRS-RS). We estimated a multigroup path model (ADHD vs control) testing CTQ→A-DES (path a), A-DES→CPRSRS (path b), and CTQ→CPRS-RS (path c′), with 1000-draw bootstrap confidence intervals, adjusting for sex, internalizing symptoms, socioeconomic status, and number of children in the household. Indirect effects were interpreted as associational. Results: In controls, higher trauma was associated with higher dissociative experiences (a=0.529, p=0.005), and higher dissociative experiences were associated with ADHD-like symptoms (b=0.292, p<0.001). The indirect effect was significant (a×b=0.155, 95% CI 0.035-0.306; p=0.019). In the ADHD group, path a (0.163, p=0.153), path b (0.107, p=0.230), and the indirect effect (0.017, 95% CI -0.022 to 0.061; p=0.380) were not significant. Indirect effects differed between groups (Wald χ²(1)=4.54, p=0.033). Conclusions: Dissociative experiences were associated with trauma-related ADHD-like symptoms in adolescents without ADHD, but this pathway was not statistically supported in diagnosed ADHD, supporting trauma-informed assessment when attentional complaints arise without confirmed ADHD.
Mental health needs, stressors and coping resources of internally displaced children in post-conflict Syria: A qualitative study with NGO staff
(Cambridge University Press, 2026) Çakır Mete, Betül; Ergün, Ahmet Faruk; Şafak, Ayşe; İnsan ve Toplum Bilimleri Fakültesi, Psikoloji Bölümü
Although the needs of conflict-affected children are well-documented, research on the post-conflict period is limited, particularly in Syria, where the fall of the Assad regime has created a rapidly evolving environment for internally displaced children. This study explores how key informants perceive the mental health needs, daily stressors and coping strategies of internally displaced children during the post-regime period. Online semi-structured interviews were conducted with 10 staff members from a non-governmental organization working in psychosocial support in the Syria camps. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis. Five major themes emerged: (1) stressors in the current camp environment, (2) challenges related to return, (3) observed emotional and behavioral difficulties, (4) children's psychological resources and (5) needs and gaps in support services. Findings highlight the inseparability of children's mental health from basic needs, the role of place-based attachments in return processes and the importance of a holistic approach that considers context-specific stressors and resources in this unique period.
Autoethnography in TESOL teacher education: A methodological synthesis
(John Wiley & Sons, 20026) Ghanbar, Hessameddin; Kamali, Jaber; Rektörlük, Yabancı Diller Okulu
In recent years, autoethnography has gained prominence as a research methodology in TESOL teacher education (TTE). Despite its growing popularity, no comprehensive methodological synthesis has been conducted to examine how this qualitative approach has been utilized in the field. Addressing this gap, we performed a systematic database search, identifying 145 studies that employed autoethnography in TTE. These studies were analyzed across a diverse range of dimensions, including inter alia, research foci, methodological designs, and other pertinent aspects. Our findings revealed that the majority of autoethnographies focused on teacher identity and agency, with critical and social justice theories serving as the predominant theoretical frameworks. Additionally, a typical autoethnography in this context was characterized by its longitudinal and collaborative nature, conducted in the United States within university settings, primarily involving in-service teachers and utilizing multiple data sources. Based on these findings, we provide evidence-based recommendations to strengthen the methodological rigor of future TESOL autoethnography.
Archaeology of de-democratization: Mobilizing the Pharaonic Past in post-2013 counterrevolutionary Egypt
(İBER Akademi Yayınları, 2026) Seyit, Rahime
In December 2010, the spark for Tunisia’s demonstrations was ignited when Bouazizi set himself on fire in protest against injustice and oppression. Bouazizi, a street vendor, was constantly harassed by the police and state authorities, who frequently confiscated his goods and disrupted his livelihood. After the state seized his merchandise, Bouazizi set himself on fire in front of a governmental headquarters, an act that sparked the Tunisian revolution and the Arab Spring uprisings.1 Within approximately four weeks, as the flames of the Tunisian revolution subsided following the escape of its dictator, Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, another spark—like Bouazizi—ignited to signal the start of the Egyptian revolution: Khaled Said2 . 3 A young man in his twenties, Said was brutally tortured to death by Alexandria police officers without any clear charge against him. He was merely a victim of a corrupt, oppressive, and brutal police system. To absolve themselves of any role for Said’s killing, the police fabricated a charge, accusing him of possessing drugs. Images of Khaled Said’s tortured body spread online like wildfire, leading to intensified calls for protests on January 25, the official Police Day holiday, to denounce the police brutality, expose their violence, and prevent future victims like Khaled Said. As expected, the police violently suppressed the demonstrations. This violence only fueled the protesters’ determination to stand against the regime and insist on their demands for a dignified life free of state terror, oppression, and injustice. However, these demands don’t seem to be materialized if we look at today’s Egyptian socio-political-economic situation...
