Publication Metadata only Validity and Reliability of the Child Feeding Questionnaire in School-Aged Children(AVES PRESS LTD, 2017) ERGÜN, AYŞE; Erdim, Leyla; Ergun, Ayse; Kuguoglu, SemaObjective: The aim of this study was to test the reliability and validity of the Turkish version of the Child Feeding Questionnaire (CFQ), which was revised by Birch et al. in 2001. Methods: The study sample included parents of 495 students who were studying in the third, fourth, and fifth grades of three public elementary schools located in Fatih district of Istanbul. Data were collected using CFQ, which was developed for measuring families' beliefs, approaches, and practice regarding child nutrition. The questionnaire includes seven sub-dimensions and 31 items. For reliability analysis, the internal consistency coefficients of the CFQ sub-dimensions, test-retest coefficient, and the item-total correlation coefficient were calculated. Content and construct validity were also tested. Results: The internal consistency of sub-dimensions was between 0.59 and 0.81, while the test-retest reliability was between 0.41 and 0.64 and item-total correlation coefficients were between 0.39 and 0.70. It was determined that expert opinions regarding the items were consistent. Construct validity of the 30-item CFQ, which included seven sub-dimensions, was tested using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Fit indices obtained from the initial CFA were not satisfactory. After modifying the error variance between items 8-9, 21-22, and 23-24, CFA was repeated, and satisfactory fit indices were found. Factor loadings of all items were between 0.31 and 0.84. Conclusion: The internal consistency, test-retest reliability, item analysis, content validity, and DFA results indicated that CFQ is valid and reliable and can be used for measuring parents' perceptions and worries regarding their children's obesity predisposition and nutrition practices.Publication Metadata only The Family Management of Childhood Chronic Conditions: Measurement in a Turkish Sample(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2019) ERGÜN, AYŞE; Ergun, Ayse; Sisman, Fatma Nevin; Erol, Saime; Gur, Kamer; Kolac, Nurcan; Kadioglu, HasibePurpose: The principal aim of this study was to adapt the FaMM into the Turkish language and test its validity and reliability. Design and methods: Data were collected from a total of 395 parents of children with chronic disease. The FaMM was translated using the translation and back-translation method. The reliability analysis of the FaMM was performed using Cronbach alpha coefficients, item-total correlations and test-retest correlations. Construct validity for the scale was assessed with confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and exploratory factor analysis (EFA). Results: The overall content validity index was 95%, signifying that the FaMM has good content validity. The CFA of the Turkish version of the FaMM did not confirm the original factorial structure. The model of three subscales for the Turkish FaMM was validated using EFA. The values of >= 0.70 for the Cronbach alpha coefficient, >0.25 for the item-total correlations and >0.40 for the test-retest application correlations for 2 weeks were found to be acceptable levels for the instruments and its subscales. Conclusions: The FaMM was found to be valid, reliable and appropriate for Turkish culture and psychometric characteristics were satisfactory. Practice implications: The FaMM can be used in evaluating the management of illness in families with children with chronic disease. (C) 2019 Elsevier Inc.

Method: This descriptive research was conducted with 525 university students. The data were collected with an identifier form, eating attitude test (EAT-40) and self-efficacy scale. In order to evaluate data, descriptive statistics, chi-square analysis, Mann-Whitney U test, Spearman correlation analysis and logistic regression analysis were used. Results: The mean score of the EAT-40 was 17.91 +/- 11.10. There was a statistically significant difference (z=-2.39, p=0.01) between the mean EAT-40 score of female students (18.67 +/- 11.30) and male students (16.79 +/- 10.73). The rate of students with EAT-40 score over 30 were found as 7.1% in the 18-19 age group, 10.9% in the 20-21 age group and 17.6%in the 22-24 age group (x(2) = 7.732; p<0.05). The eating disorder risk of the over weight and obese students was two times more than the students with normal weight, while the eating disorder risk of the weak students was 2.9 times lower than the students with normal weight. There was no difference between the mean self-efficacy score of the ones whose EAT40 score was over 30 and under 30. Conclusions: The students being overweight and obese, being not happy about their weights, being on a diet and stating that their nutrition would be affected in case of stress were found at risk in terms of the eating disorder.Publication Open Access Validity and Reliability of the Sleep and Lifestyle Questionnaire(GALENOS YAYINCILIK, 2019-09-01) ERGÜN, AYŞE; Bay, Tuba; Ergun, AyseObjective: The aim of this study was to investigate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Sleep and Lifestyle Questionnaire for adolescents. Materials and Methods: The Sleep and Lifestyle Questionnaire consists of 12 questions developed to assess sleep, television, and computer habits of adolescents. The questionnaire was applied to a total of 1.476 students, and 112 students were retested four weeks later. The content validity of the questionnaire was evaluated by opinions from 10 experts, construct validity was evaluated by chi-square analysis. The test-retest was performed for the reliability of the questions in the questionnaire and kappa for the categorical variable, Spearman's correlation analysis for ordinal data, and the percentage of agreement for continuous variables were calculated. Results: Content validity index of Sleep and Lifestyle Questionnaire was found as 0.99. The chi-square analysis of the construct validity demonstrated that the students whose sleep time was less than the median has a statistically significant higher rate of falling asleep, difficulty in awakening, and being sleepy at school. In the Sleep and Lifestyle QuestionnairePublication Open Access The effect of the transtheoretical model-based healthy youth program on sexual health knowledge and behavior of college women(2023-01-01) ERGÜN, AYŞE; EROL, SAİME; Karatana O., ERGÜN A., EROL S.College women are at more risk in terms of sexual behavior than male students. This study was carried out to determine the effect of the transtheoretical model-based Healthy Youth Program on college women\"s sexual health knowledge and behaviors. The sample of the study, which was conducted with a one-group pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design, consisted of 207 first-year college women. It was determined that the Healthy Youth Program was effective in improving the sexual health knowledge and behaviors of college women. It can be used as a guide in sexual health education in colleges.Publication Open Access Reliability and Validity of the Turkish Version of Children's Somatization Inventory(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2012-03) ERGÜN, AYŞE; Kadioglu, Hasibe; Sismari, Fatma Nevin; Ergun, AyePurpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of the Children's Somatization Inventory (CSI) in Turkish schoolchildren and adolescents. Methods: The CSI was translated using translation and back-translation. The participants were 813 schoolchildren, adolescents and their parents (n = 453). Content and construct validity were assessed to test the validity of the CSI-24. Internal consistency reliability, interrater reliability (child-parent agreement) and test-retest reliability were assessed to test the reliability of the CSI-24. Results: Psychometric analyses of the Turkish version of the CSI-24 indicate high reliability and good content and construct validity. Conclusion: The Turkish version of the CSI-24 is a useful instrument for measuring self-reported somatic complaints in Turkish schoolchildren and adolescents between the ages of 9 and 15.
