    Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of childhood psychopathologies in Turkey. Method: A nation-wide, randomly selected, representative population of 5830 children (6–13 years-old) enrolled as a 2nd,3rd or 4th grade student in 30 cities were evaluated for presence of a psychiatric or mental disorder by a Sociodemographic Form, Kiddie Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School Age Children-Present and Lifetime Version (K-SADS-PL), and DSM-IV-Based Screening Scale for Disruptive Behavior Disorders in Children and Adolescents scales. Impairment criterion was assessed via a 3 point-Likert scale by the parent and the teacher independently. Results: Overall prevalence of any psychopathology was 37.6% without impairment criterion, and 17.1% with impairment criterion. Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder was the most frequent diagnosis, followed by anxiety (19.5% and 16.7% without impairment, 12.4% and 5.3% with impairment, respectively). Lower education level and presence of a physical or psychiatric problem of the parents were independent predictors of any psychopathology of the offspring. Conclusion: This is the largest and most comprehensive epidemiological study to determine the prevalence of psychopathologies in children and adolescents in Turkey. Our results partly higher than, and partly comparable to previous national and international studies. It also contributes to the literature by determining the independent predictors of psychopathologies in this age group. © 2019, © 2019 The Nordic Psychiatric Association.

    Reliability and validity of the Turkish version of the WHO-5, in adults and older adults for its use in primary care settings
    (NLM (Medline), 2019) Eser E.; Çevik C.; Baydur H.; Güneş S.; Esgin T.A.; Öztekin ÇS.; Eker E.; Gümüşsoy U.; Eser G.B.; Özyurt B.
    BACKGROUND: This study aims to determine the psychometric properties of the World Health Organization Well-Being Index (WHO-5) Turkish version in Turkish adults and older adults. METHODS: This is a multicenter cultural adaptation study carried out with 1752 participants. Internal consistency (by Cronbach's alpha); Construct validity (by known groups and confirmatory factor analysis-CFI) and discriminant validity are evaluated stratified by adults and older adults. Cohen's Effect Size is used in known groups and discriminant validity analyses. RESULTS: Distribution properties of the WHO-5 Turkish version are in acceptable limits. Alpha values are 0.81 for adults and 0.86 for older adults. The variances of the 58.5% of the adults sample and 63.9% of the older adults sample are explained in Exploratory FA. Model fits (CFI) are satisfactory ( > 0.95) in both samples; but RMSEA is poor in the older adults sample (0.166) whereas it is acceptable (0.073) in the adults sample. Known groups validity and discriminant analyses are satisfactory in both adults and older adults. CONCLUSION: The WHO-5 Turkish version has a good measurement capacity, internal consistency and good model fits in both samples. The error values in the older adults group suggest that the results when testing older adults should be interpreted with caution.

    Psychometric characteristics of turkish version of parental attitudes towards childhood vaccines (PACV) scale; [Ebeveynlerin çocukluk aşilarina yönelik tutumlari (PACV) ölçeğinin türkçe sürümünün psikometrik özellikleri]
    (Galenos Publishing House, 2020) Çevik C.; Güneş S.; Eser S.; Eser E.
    INTRODUCTION: Vaccination hesitation is an important public health problem that has increased in recent years. The aim of this study was to determine the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Parenting Attitudes towards Childhood Vaccines Scale (PACV). MATERIALS and METHODS: This methodological study was conducted between January-May 2019 with parents of 0-59 months old children (n = 211) who applied to Balıkesir University Health Application and Research Hospital Children's Polyclinic. PACV scale consists of 15 items in four dimensions: behavior, attitude, safety and effectiveness dimensions. Internal consistency (using Cronbach's alpha value) was used in reliability analyzes, structural validity (known groups and confirmatory factor analysis) and discriminant validity were used in validity analyzes. In the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), the Comparative Compliance Index (BSI-CFI) and RMSEA were used. In the analysis, SS SPSS version 21.0 for Windows program and Lisrel 8.54 statistical package programs were used. RESULTS: 68.2% of the parents were women, 85.3% had sufficient income perception and 68.7% had only one child. The mean age was 30.84±5.15 for parents and 3.24±1.63 for children. Floor and ceiling effects of the scale are within the desired limits. Cronbach's alpha value of the scale was 0.676. Test-retest results are good (ICC: 0.93, p: 0.001). In the explanatory factor analysis, KMO was 0.77 and the total explained variance was 57.41%. In the Confirmatory Factor Analysis, compliance indicators are good (X2 / sd: 1.87, RMSEA: 0.0652, CFI: 0.949, NFI: 0.90). The scale was found to be discriminant according to the validity of known groups. CONCLUSIONS: The PACV scale is a valid and reliable scale adapted to the Turkish population. Parents' Attitudes towards Childhood Vaccines Scale is sufficient and satisfactory in terms of distribution, measurement ability, internal consistency and model fit. Total correlation after overlap correction was found below 30 in questions 7 and 14 and the results must be interpreted with caution. © 2020, Galenos Yayincilik,. All rights reserved.
