Araştırmanın amacı okul psikolojik danışmanlarının mesleklerine, sorumluluklarına ve sınırlarına ilişkin algılarını saptamaktır. Araştırma nitel bir çalışmadır ve veriler içerik analizi ile incelenmiştir. Çalışmaya katılan Ankara'ya bağlı bir ilçede görevli okul psikolojik danışmanlarından (n=66) okul psikolojik danışmanı metaforu için "Okul psikolojik danışmanı....gibidir, çünkü…..." cümlesini tamamlaması; okul psikolojik danışmanının sınır ve sorumluluklarına ilişkin algıları için de "okul psikolojik danışmanının en önemli sorumluluğu….. dur, çünkü……", ve "okul psikolojik danışmanı… karışmamalıdır, çünkü..." cümlelerini tamamlamaları istenmiştir. Katılımcılar okul psikolojik danışmanı kavramına ilişkin olarak toplam 51 adet geçerli metafor, sorumluluğuna ilişkin 53 adet tanımlama üretilmiştir. Katılımcılar okul psikolojik danışmanının sınırlarının ne olduğu ile ilgili 40 tanımlama yapmıştır. Bulgular, kategoriler ve mesleğin gelişim süreci bağlamında tartışılmıştır. Üretilen metaforlarda tablo bir bütün olarak ele alındığında okul psikolojik danışmanlarının kendilerine dair mesleki algıları ile okulda kendilerine yüklenen görevler arasında kaldıkları görülmektedir. Araştırmanın diğer bulguları değerlendirildiğinde psikolojik danışma alanının en önemli ilkeleri arasında olan öğrenci merkezlilik ve gizliliğin okul psikolojik danışmanları tarafından önemli ölçüde içselleştirildiği görülmektedir.

Abstract. Results of the behavioral studies suggest that attachment styles may have an enduring effect upon theory of mind (ToM). However biological underpinnings of this relationship are unclear. Here, we compared securely and insecurely attached first grade university students ( N = 56) in terms of cortical activity measured by 52 channel Functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) during the Reading the Mind from the Eyes Test (RMET). The control condition involved gender identification via the same stimuli. We found that the ToM condition evoked higher activity than the control condition particularly in the right hemisphere. We observed higher activity during the ToM condition relative to the control condition in the secure group (SG), whereas the overall cortical activity evoked by the two conditions was indistinguishable in the insecure group (ISG). Higher activity was observed in channels corresponding to right superior temporal and adjacent parietal cortices in the SG relative to the ISG during the ToM condition. Dismissive attachment scores were negatively correlated with activity in channels that correspond to right superior temporal cortex. These results suggest that attachment styles do have an effect on representation of ToM in terms of cortical activity in late adolescence. Particularly, dismissive attachment is represented by lower activity in the right superior temporal cortex during ToM, which might be related to weaker social need and habitual unwillingness for closeness among this group of adolescents.

ABSTRACT. The aim of the study is to determine the basic educational problems of the children of seasonal agricultural workers who were at the age of primary education in accordance with the related public policies and the parent's, teacher's, school counsellor's, and related manager's opinions. Data were collected through semistructured interviews and observation forms. Results indicate that despite the prohibitive and supportive regulations for educational attendance, child labour in agriculture still continues. It is also found that mechanisms to determine and monitor the educational problems were not functioning effectively; thus interruption in education prevents children from cumulative and advancing learning experiences and lastly, the efforts to tolerate the educational deficiencies were in sufficient. It is concluded that the solution should not be simplified as a "pedagogical problem" and should be wholistic and in association with social conditions.

Obviously, the educational problems of children of seasonal migrant workers differ from other disadvantaged social groups. Despite the recent policies and approaches that acknowledge the problem and aim to provide education to children who had to stay off school, the problem still seems to exist and attracts attention to the processes related to the implementation of policies and the obstacles in application. Current study is important, since it presents the viewpoints of those who are having the problems as well as of those who are in the position of the enforcing those policies.
