The main objective of this dissertation is to examine the factors contributing to the development and maintenance of general obsessive-compulsive symptomatology (OCS) in a community sample. On the basis of cognitive models (Salkovskis, 1985; Rachman, 1997; Clark, 2004), Guidano and Liotti‟s model of selfambivalence, and Gross‟ (1999) process model of emotion regulation, the present study aimed to investigate the role of perceived parental styles, self-ambivalence, maladaptive appraisals, and emotion regulation strategies in predicting both overall OCS and subtypes of OCD. In line with these purposes, firstly, the SelfAmbivalence Measure (SAM; Bhar & Kyrios, 2007) was translated into Turkish and a pilot study was conducted in order to evaluate the psychometric properties of the instrument. Main study included 877 adults from different regions of Turkey. The factor analysis of the SAM revealed a three-factor solution, labeled as self-worth ambivalence, moral ambivalence, and public-self acceptability. v Additionally, the analyses showed that Turkish SAM had satisfactory psychometric properties. Regression analyses indicated that paternal overprotection, maternal rejection, self-worth ambivalence, public selfacceptability, OCD-related beliefs, and suppression were associated with the overall obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Finally, the results of model-testing analyses showed the mediator roles of self-ambivalence, obsessive appraisals, and suppression as an emotion regulation strategy between parental attitudes and OCS. The results of the current study were discussed in the light of the literature; and clinical implications, limitations, and directions for the future studies were presented.

Perceived parental rearing behaviors, responsibility attitudes and life events as predictors of obsessive compulsive symptomatology: test of a cognitive model Hacıömeroğlu, A. Bikem; Karancı, Ayşe Nuray; Department of Psychology (2008) The main objective of this study was to examine the vulnerability factors of Obsessive Compulsive Symptomatology (OCS) in a non-clinical sample. On the basis of Salkovskis’ cognitive model of OCD, the present study aimed to investigate the role of perceived parental rearing behaviors, responsibility attitudes, and life events in predicting OCS. Furthermore, the mediator role of responsibility attitudes in the relationship between perceived parental rearing behaviors and OCS was examined. Finally, the specif...

Comparative analysis of variability modelling approaches in component models Suloglu, Selma; Kaya, Muhammed Çağrı; Karamanlıoğlu, Alper; Entekhabi, Sina; Nikoo, Mahdi Saeedi; Tekinerdogan, Bedir; Doğru, Ali Hikmet (2018-12-01) The results of a systematic literature review conducted for variability modelling in software component models are analysed and presented here. A well-planned protocol guided the screening of 3230 papers that resulted in the identification of 55 papers. Reviewing these papers, 23 of them were considered as primary studies related to our research questions. A comparison framework is introduced to further understand, assess, and compare those selected papers. Observations about the important aspects of compon...
