    (PSYCHOLOGY IN THE SCHOOLS, 2024-12) Araci-Iyiaydin, Aysegul; Cok, Figen; Altunay-Yilmaz, Hilal; Atay, Safak; Serttas, Sebnem Yagmur
    The present qualitative study aims to reveal the lived experiences of 20 Turkish university students (10 male, 10 female) regarding their stress factors and how they coped with challenges faced during the first 3 months of the lockdown period amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. The participants, aged between 19 and 24, were recruited from different state and private universities employing convenience and snowball sampling methods. Grounded in a descriptive phenomenological approach, inductive content analysis (ICS) was employed. The data were collected via in-depth interviews in May 2020, and analyzed by using Nvivo. The findings showed that the experiences of the participants gathered around five main themes namely, general impact on daily life, impact on various life domains, coping strategies, contributions, and post-pandemic future. Participants reported their concerns regarding disruptions in daily life and routines caused by precautionary measures, and their expectations as to post-pandemic life as well. Various adaptive also maladaptive coping strategies were adopted. Notably, participants appraised the pandemic process as an improving experience attributing this to having more spare time for themselves and an increase in their self-awareness. Findings are discussed in light of the available literature.

    (CURRENT PSYCHOLOGY, 2024) Bora, Hatice Turan; Seheryeli, Merve Yildirim; Altun, Sadegul Akbaba
    This research is a predictive correlational study aimed at examining the relationship between students' sense of school belonging, principals' perceptions of school discipline, and teachers' perceptions of school safety. In this research, Turkiye data of the fifth and eighth-grade students in TIMSS 2019 used. The study included 3991 fifth-grade students from 180 different schools and 4077 eight grade students from 181 schools. This study used HLM analysis to determine whether students' school belonging could be predicted by teachers' perceptions of school safety and principals' perceptions of school discipline using nested, hierarchical data. The first hypothesis of the study aims to examine whether students' school belonging differs within and among schools. According to the results of the study, the school belonging of fifth and eighth grade students differs among schools. The second hypothesis analyzed whether science and mathematics teachers' perceptions of school safety predicted student belonging levels. In the study, it was inferred that only eighth grade science teachers' perceptions of school safety significantly predicted their students' belonging levels. The third hypothesis analyzed whether principals' perceptions of school discipline predicted student belonging levels. It was observed that principals' perceptions of school discipline did not predict the belonging levels of students. In the last hypothesis of the study, it was examined whether science and mathematics teachers' perceptions of school safety and principals' perceptions of school discipline together predicted students' level of belonging to school. It was detected that science and mathematics teachers' perceptions of school safety and principals' perceptions of school discipline together did not predict students' level of belonging to school.
