    The Mediating Role Of Anxiety In The Relationship Between Misophonia And Quality Of Life: Findings From The Validated Turkish Version Of Misoquest
    (Başkent Üniversitesi Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi, 2024-05-03) Ay, Ezgi; Huviyetli, Mert; Cakmak, Eda
    Introduction Misophonia is a disorder characterized by decreased tolerance to certain sounds or their associated stimuli, and many measurement tools have been developed for its diagnosis and evaluation. The aims of the current study were to develop the Turkish version of MisoQuest, a fully validated misophonia questionnaire, to evaluate the relationships between misophonia, anxiety, and quality of life, and to examine the mediating role of anxiety in the relationship between misophonia and quality of life.Methods The reliability of the Turkish version of MisoQuest was conducted using data from 548 participants (Mean age = 28.06 +/- 9.36). Then, the relationships between misophonia, anxiety, and quality of life were evaluated in a separate sample of 117 participants (Mean age = 25.50 +/- 6.31) using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and the Short Form 36 (SF-36) questionnaire.Results The results showed that the Turkish version of MisoQuest has good psychometric properties. Close-to-moderate positive correlations were found between misophonia and anxiety, and weak negative correlations were found between misophonia and quality of life. Anxiety mediated the relationships between misophonia and quality of life.Discussion These results emphasize that misophonia may be an important problem affecting people's quality of life and reveal the mediating role of anxiety on this effect.

    The Effect of Theory-Based Care on Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy, Anxiety and Breast Milk Release
    (Başkent Üniversitesi Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi, 2024-04-12) Gurel, Reyyan; Erenel, Ayten Senturk
    Objective: The effect of nursing care provided according to Dennis' breastfeeding self-efficacy theory on breastfeeding self-efficacy, anxiety, and breast milk secretion was evaluated. Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 60 mothers in the first week postpartum were examined. The mothers and their supporters in the Dennis Theory-Based Nursing Care group were trained. Before the training, mothers were given the personal information form and the breastfeeding diary form to be filled out for 15 days. The perception of breastfeeding self-efficacy of mothers was evaluated using the "Postpartum Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale". Their anxiety was determined using the "State Anxiety Scale", and breast milk release was assessed using the "Daily Form for Baby's Adequate Nutrition". The parameters were measured on the first day and 15 days after the training. Routine hospital standard nursing care was provided to the mothers in the control group. Results: The number of formulas given by mothers in the Dennis Theory-Based Nursing Care group to their babies was significantly lower than the number of formulas given by the mothers in the control group (Z=-0.90, p<.001). While the post-evaluation breastfeeding self-efficacy scores of the mothers in the experimental group were significantly higher (Z=-6.82, p<.001), the post-evaluation anxiety scores were significantly lower than those of the mothers in the control group (Z=-6.38, p<.001). Conclusion: We found that applying Dennis' Theory-Based Nursing Care increased the breastfeeding self-efficacy level of the mothers and decreased their level of anxiety and the number of formulas that the babies received.
