Individual Differences in the Relationship Between Attachment and Nomophobia Among College Students: The Mediating Role of Mindfulness
Arpaci, Ibrahim; Baloğlu, Mustafa; Kozan, Hatice Irem Ozteke; Kesici, Sahin (JMIR Publications Inc., 2017-12-01)
Background: There is a growing interest in nomophobia, which is defined as the fear of being out of cellular phone contact, or "feelings of discomfort or anxiety experienced by individuals when they are unable to use their mobile phones or utilize the affordances these devices provide". However, only limited research can be found in terms of its determinants at present. Contemporary literature suggests that the relationships among attachment styles, mindfulness, and nomophobia have not been investigated.

Individual differences in performance on perceptual multiple cue probability learning tasks
Bayındır, Mustafa; Çağıltay, Kürşat; Bolger, Fergus; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2013)
What makes an individual, or as the initial motivation of this study, a pilot, perform above the average in a complex task where speed is the primary concern? The answer of this question is closely related to the task and the individual in the task environment. It is plausible to model such a task by mapping it to responding to several stimuli (cues) that are related to a environmental variable (criterion). This model actually corresponds to a judgment analysis paradigm, studied extensively in the literatur...
Individual variation in the spatial reference and working memory assessed under allothetic and idiothetic orientation cues in rat
Jakubowska-Dogru, E; Gumusbas, U; Kara, F (2003-01-01)
The present study was designed to examine which kind of memory: reference or working, better correlates with individual variation in rats' spatial learning abilities. To answer this question two groups of rats were trained to an arbitrary criterion in a partially baited 12-arm radial maze under two different experimental conditions: with or without allothetic cues. After 10 days break, rats were examined under the same conditions for memory retention. Within- and between-group variation in the length of tra...
Individual Differences as Predictors of Illicit Drug Use Among Turkish College Students
Ayvasik, H. Belgin; Sümer, Hayriye Canan (2010-01-01)
Although the prevalence of drug use in the young adult population in Turkey is still far below the figures reported for most European Union countries and the United States, there seems to be a noteworthy increase in drug use, especially among high school and college students. The purpose of the present study was to examine the extent of drug use among college students in Turkey and to identify some of the individual-difference variables associated with drug use. Participants were 781 college students. A sur...
