We examined health risk behaviors and self-esteem of 1,361 adolescents in Adiyaman, Turkey. The data were obtained using the Health Risk Behaviors Scale (HRBS; Çimen & Savaşer, 2003) and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (SES; Rosenberg, 1965). The most frequent predictor of risky behavior in adolescents was physical activity. Nutrition, psychosocial, hygiene, and substance abuse issues were also significant predictors of risky behavior. The results indicated that age, year at school (grade), gender, self-esteem, and school performance all had a strong impact on health risk behaviors. Adolescents must be made aware of health risk issues associated with physical activity, nutrition, hygiene, and substance abuse.

A Theoretical Overview On The Relationship Between Unemployment And Crime
ABSTRACT
Many macroeconomic variables such as unemployment, wage, inflation, income per capita and inequity in income distribution have an impact on crime. In this study, it is aimed to determine the effect of unemployment on crime which is one of the most important problems for the Turkish economy, through the evaluation of the studies related to the topic.In the study, primarily, economic models for the crime which were created by Becker in 1968 and developed by Ehrlich (1973), Heineke (1978) and Schmidt and Witte (1984)
Although the fertility rate in Turkey has decreased in recent years, it continues to differ according to the regions. For this reason in the study, it is aimed to determine the socioeconomic factors that affect the probability of fertility behavior in regions with a fertility rate above the average. In this context, the socioeconomic dimension of fertility behavior was investigated by logistic panel regression analysis using the second level (26 subregions of Turkey) Nomenclature Of Units For Territorial Statistics (NUTS2) data of the Turkish Statistical Institute (TSI) for the period 2009-2020. According to the results of the analysis, women's employment rate, per capita gross domestic product, inflation rate and the number of high school graduate women have a negative effect on the probability of fertility behavior in regions with a fertility rate above the average. While the number of women who graduated from college and faculties and the rate of urbanization have a positive effect on the probability of fertility behavior in these regions, the average age at first marriage of women has no effect.
Bireylerin yaşamlarında istedikleri hedeflere ulaşmaları sonucunda beklentilerinin karşılanması durumunu ifade eden yaşam memnuniyeti, bireylerin yaşamlarındaki nihai amaçları olan mutluluklarının sağlanmasında en önemli etkendir. Bu nedenle bireylerin yaşam memnuniyetini etkileyen sosyoekonomik faktörlerin belirlenmesi önem arz etmektedir. Çalışmada Ekonomik Kalkınma ve İşbirliği Örgütü üyesi 25 ülkede bireylerin yaşam memnuniyetine sosyoekonomik faktörlerin etkisi 2013-2018 dönemi için Sistem Genelleştirilmiş Momentler Yöntemiyle araştırılmıştır. Bu ülkeler ve dönem analizde kullanılan değişkenlerin veri setine göre belirlenmiştir. Ekonomik Kalkınma ve İşbirliği Örgütü üyesi 25 ülkede bireylerin yaşam memnuniyetini etkileyen sosyoekonomik faktörler ise ekonomik koşullar, eğitim ve güvenlik kapsamında belirlenmiştir. Sistem Genelleştirilmiş Momentler Yöntemi sonucu ağırlıklı olarak ekonomik faktörlerin yaşam memnuniyeti üzerinde etkisi olduğunu göstermektedir. Buna göre bireylerin yaşam memnuniyetini işsizlik ve gini negatif yönde etkilerken, kişi başına gayri safi yurt içi hasıla ve yükseköğretim mezunları pozitif yönde etkilemektedir. Sosyal harcamalar ve şiddet suçlarının yaşam memnuniyetine etkisi bulunmamaktadır.
