Coping skills in alcohol related issues are predicted to reduce vulnerability to relapse. It is important to adapt care to individual needs so as to prevent a return to the cycle of alcohol use. The Tidal Model focuses on providing support and services to people who need to live a constructive life. AIM: The aim of the randomized study was to determine the effect of the psychiatric nursing approach based on the Tidal Model on coping and self-esteem in people with alcohol dependency. METHOD: The study was semi-experimental in design with a control group, and was conducted on 36 individuals (18 experimental, 18 control). An experimental and a control group were formed by assigning persons to each group using the stratified randomization technique in the order in which they were admitted to hospital. The Coping Inventory (COPE) and the Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventory (CSEI) were used as measurement instruments. The measurement instruments were applied before the application and three months after the application. In addition to routine treatment and follow-up, the psychiatric nursing approach based on the Tidal Model was applied to the experimental group in the One-to-One Sessions. RESULTS: The psychiatric nursing approach based on the Tidal Model is an approach which is effective in increasing the scores of people with alcohol dependency in positive reinterpretation and growth, active coping, restraint, emotional social support and planning and reducing their scores in behavioral disengagement. It was seen that self-esteem rose, but the difference from the control group did not reach significance. DISCUSSION: The psychiatric nursing approach based on the Tidal Model has an effect on people with alcohol dependency in maintaining their abstinence. (C) 2017 Elsevier Inc.

The research was conducted in the Radiation Oncology Department of Ege University Medical Faculty Hospital and at Tulay Aktas Oncology Hospital in Turkey. There were 30 newly diagnosed breast cancer patients included in the sample. Emotional support-focused nursing interventions were administered in seven sessions individually with each patient. A total of 210 hours of meetings with the patients were conducted. Data were collected by administering a pre-test and post-test in two phases with the patients using a Descriptive Information Form and the Psychosocial Adjustment to Illness Scale - Self Report (PAIS-SR). The patients mean age was 44.5 (SD=6.38) years and the mean duration of illness was 6.46 (SD=1.99) months. In the comparison of the PAIS-SR pretest and post-test mean scores it was determined that there was a significant increase in patients adaptation to health care orientation (p=0.001), domestic environment (p<0.01), sexual relationships (p<0.05), extended family relationships (p<.001) and social environment (p<0.001), and a significant decrease in psychological distress (p<0.001). However there was no change in patients vocational adjustment (p>.05). According to these findings emotional support-focused nursing interventions had a part in increasing patients psychosocial adjustment.Öğe The Effects of Nursing Care Based on Watson's Theory of Human Caring on the Mental Health of Pregnant Women After a Pregnancy Loss(W B Saunders Co-Elsevier Inc, 2017) Tektas, Pinar; Cam, OlcayÖğe Health anxiety and cyberchondria among Ege University health science students(Churchill Livingstone, 2018) Bati, Ayse Hilal; Mandiracioglu, Aliye; Govsa, Figen; Cam, OlcayIt is common among health science students to incorrectly believe that they have contracted certain diseases they have recently studied. This can also be seen in the form of health anxiety and investigating health-related information via the internet. Health anxiety, cyberchondria and affecting factors are determined among health science students. The study was conducted at the faculties of Medicine, Pharmacy, Dentistry and Nursing in 2016-2017 with the participation of 874 students. The data were gathered using a questionnaire as well as health anxiety and cyberchondria severity scales. In the presence of a health problem, 14.2% of students seek health information via the intemet 83.7% use mobile phone to access the intemet, 1/4 of students conduct health scanning once a week or more. To 65.4%, intemet information is correct at medium and above level. No statistically significant difference was found with respect to students' gender, high school, places they lived before, parents' education and scales' scores. The cyberchondria scores of students with health problems are higher in the whole scale and in "distress and mistrust of medical professional" subscales. As the frequency of scanning on the intemet increases, the scores of cyberchondria also increase significantly. Medical students had significantly higher scores in "distress, excessiveness and reassurance" subscales. Male students' "mistrust of medical professional and compulsion" subscales scores were also higher. It was determined that the presence of the health problem was effective on the cyberchondria. Identification of somatoform problems like health anxiety and cyberchondria may help to regulate the education program.Öğe Investigation of women's styles of coping with stress in the prevention of cancer and their health beliefs(Cumhuriyet Univ Tip Fak Psikiyatri Anabilim Dali, 2008) Bilge, Ayseguel; Cam, OlcayObjective and Methods: Cancer is a serious, life-threatening disease. Stress is a risk factor for cancer. This is a descriptive study which aims to evaluate women's styles of coping with stress in the prevention of cancer and their health beliefs. Findings: According to the results of this study, 51% of women were within 36-59 age group, 63% did nothing to prevent cancer. 62% considered the stress as the most important cause of cancer. When the styles of coping with stress and traditional health beliefs of women were analyzed, women were found to have an approach of desperation in their coping with stress and had traditional health beliefs. Discussion: Though women knew that stress leads to cancer, their desperate approach in their style of coping with stress and their having traditional health beliefs constitute an additional risk for cancer. Thus they need to have educational support on this issue.Öğe Mental illness and recovery(Kare Publ, 2018) Cam, Olcay; Yalciner, NihanÖğe Nurses' Resilience and Effective Factors(Kare Publ, 2017) Cam, Olcay; Buyukbayram, AyseResilience can be described as the ability to recuperate after difficult life experiences or overcome change or disasters. In order to develop resilience, one has to encounter a stressor. Nurses encounter various traumatic situations particularly due to distressing and stressful work life. Therefore, it is important for nurses to strengthen their resilience in terms of coping with difficulties, adapting to new situations, having realistic and positive future expectations and protecting their work and daily life. If nurses have sufficient resilience, burnout and the rate of leaving work or resigning decrease, posttraumatic growth develops, and work satisfaction increases. In this review, we aim to emphasize the importance of the resilience for nurses, determine the factors which affect their resilience, and increase the resilience of nurses.Öğe RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN EARLY DIAGNOSIS ATTITUDES IN CERVICAL CANCER OF WOMEN AND LEVELS OF SELF-ESTEEM, BODY PERCEPTION AND HOPELESSNESS(Nobel Ilac, 2011) Gumus, Aysun Babacan; Cam, OlcayObjective: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between early diagnosis attitudes and levels of self-esteem, body perception and hopelessness in women with cervical cancer Material and Method: This research was conducted as a descriptive, cross-sectional study in an area covered by three neighborhood primary health care clinics in Bornova, Izmir The data were collected from 390 women over the 18 years of age who were selected using a stratified random sampling method.

This study was designed to analyze the relationship between psychosocial adjustment and hopelessness in a group of such women in Turkey. Method: The subjects were 90 women with breast cancer recruited at i Ege University School of Medicine Department of Radiation Oncology Nurse Counsellor Unit and Tulay Aktas Oncology Hospital Outpatient Chemotherapy Unit. Data were collected using an Introductory Information Form and Psychosocial Adjustment to the Illness Scale - Self-Report (PAIS-SR) and the Beck Hopelessness Scale (BHS) and analyzed by Pearson Correlation Analysis. Results: The mean age of the women was 49.4 +/- 11.0. It was found that the level of psychosocial adjustment of 63.3% of the women was "poor". A positive relationship was determined between PAIS-SR mean score and BHS mean score of the women with breast cancer (r=0.731, p<0.01). Conclusion: It was observed that as the psychosocial adjustment worsens, as the level of hopelessness of the women increases. In the light of this relationship, it was concluded that the attempts to increase hope and therefore the support for the psychosocial adjustment of patients should play a vital role in increasing their quality of life.Öğe The Results of Nurses' Increasing Emotional Intelligence and Resilience(Kare Publ, 2015) Cam, Olcay; Buyukbayram, AyseResilience is people's ability to pull themselves together before difficult life experiences or their ability to cope with crises or disasters successfully. It is particularly important for nurses to improve their resilience since they face many traumatic situations in their stressful professional lives. It is important to identify the risks that affect resilience to be able to improve it and be informed about protective factors. Resilience interacts with emotional intelligence, one of its protective factors. The results of this interaction are the improvement of professional nursing approaches and the profession itself, professional patient care and patient satisfaction, reduced burnout and resignations, and increased professional and life satisfaction. The improvement of emotional intelligence skills is important since it increases nurses' individual and social resilience and improves their professional and life outcomes. This literature review explains nurses' resilience and the importance of emotional intelligence skills in improving resilience, the interaction between emotional intelligence skills and resilience, the professional results of this interaction, emotional intelligence skills and the factors that affect resilience.Öğe Validity and Reliability Study of James Supportive Care Screening for Cancer Patients(Kare Publ, 2016) Demirkol, Hacer; Cam, OlcayOBJECTIVE The present study examined the validity and reliability of the James Supportive Care Screening (SCS), a tool to measure the distress of those diagnosed with cancer, for Turkish patients. METHODS After necessary approval was obtained from the oncology hospital, research was conducted with 280 chemotherapy outpatients. Content validity, construct validity, and criterion-related validity tests were used to evaluate validity of SCS use in Turkey, while internal consistency and test-retest reliability were measured to determine reliability. RESULTS Content validity index value based on ratings of experts on all items of SCS found on above 0.80. The Turkish version of the scale has 48 items based on 6 factors, and is similar to the original SCS measure. Confirmatory factor analysis. Cronbach's alpha value of scale was 0.918 and unchangeability against time was proven. CONCLUSION James Supportive Care Screening is a valid and reliable measurement tool for screening Turkish cancer patients.
