“…As the fear of exams, quizzes, and other assignments used to evaluate performance of students (Wu, 2010), test anxiety may play a painful role in learning a foreign language (Horwitz, Horwitz, & Cope, 1986;MacIntyre & Gardner 1991). High school students in Turkey are faced with many examinations in the education process starting from primary school (Sarı, Bilek, & Çelik, 2018), resulting in considerable test anxiety (Arslan & Aksekioğlu, 2017). Since the research literature reports a strong positive correlation between test anxiety and FLL anxiety (Salehi & Marefat, 2014), test anxiety can be suggested to be one of the reasons provoking FLL anxiety of high school students, other than university students.…”

This research aimed to identify the differences in foreign language learning (FLL) anxiety levels between high school and university students based on some variables such as gender, current educational status, parents' (father and mother) educational status, and monthly income of families. The survey model was adopted in the research. The research included high school (n = 333) and university (n = 341) students from Nigde and Afyonkarahisar provinces. In the research, "Foreign Language Learning Anxiety Scale" (FLLAS) was used in order to collect data. For the analyses of the data, independent samples t-test and one-way ANOVA were performed. The results of the research indicated that gender, fathers' educational status and monthly income of family variables did not have a significant impact on foreign language anxiety levels of high school and university students. It was also found that students' educational status as well as their mothers' educational status variables influenced their FLL anxiety significantly.

“…It is portrayed by uneasiness, dread, misery, and expectations of disappointment (Zeidner, 1998;Sieber, 1980; as cited in Sarı, Bilek and Çelik, 2018). Typically, it happens as a built up set of reactions to boosts, based upon the student's past encounters in testing circumstances (Sieber, 1980; as cited in Sarı et al, 2018). Students with test anxiety regularly encounter ruminating musings about potential disappointment joined by passionate pain and physiological excitement that is often translated as debilitating and risky.…”

Background: The term "depression" is often misused as the term "distress" without knowing that the term "depression" is a clinical term and a person cannot be in a depressed state unless diagnosed by a doctor or a psychiatrist. This study will enable the general public to know and notice the indications being displayed by the distressed subjects, and may be able to prevent anything drastic from happening. Methods: The study makes use of the qualitative phenomenological research design, wherein it focused on an individual's experiences, beliefs, and perceptions. The study is based on the central question: "How do SHS students cope with their distress on certain situations?". The data was collected through the process of a semistructured interview containing twenty-five developmental questions. Findings: Findings show the participants' various situations that caused them distress, triggered by unwanted and disappointing or frustrating events. Conclusions: Fisher (2015) cited that adolescence is a complex developmental stage where individuals develop an increasingly sophisticated conceptual framework for their own emotional experiences. Recommendations: This paper suggests a more broadened research on this topic and must refrain from medical-based research and more of emotional and psychological approach on this matter, wherein it is understood by readers of a wider knowledge background.

Bu çalışmada sağlık teknikerliği öğrencilerinin benlik saygısı düzeyinin belirlenmesi ve benlik saygısı düzeyinin öğrencilerin sosyodemografik özellikleri, okudukları programa yönelik algı ve tutumları ile ilişkisinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Kesitsel tipteki bu araştırmanın evreni Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi Sağlık Hizmetleri Meslek Yüksekokulu'nda öğrenim gören öğrencilerden oluşmaktadır. Veriler, literatürden yararlanılarak oluşturulan bir anket ve Rosenberg Benlik Saygısı Ölçeği'yle toplanmıştır. Veriler ki-kare analizi ile değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Araştırmaya katılan öğrencilerin %54,6'sının benlik saygısı düzeyi yüksektir. Öğrencilerin cinsiyeti, babasının öğrenim düzeyi, çocuklukta yaşanan yer, ailesinin ekonomik durumu algısı, öğrencinin gelir algısı ve yaşam kalitesi algısı ile yüksek benlik saygısı arasında anlamlı ilişki bulunmuştur (p<0,05). Okuduğu bölümü isteyerek seçen, kaydını yaptırmadan önce bölümle ilgili ön araştırma yapan, kendini bu mesleğe uygun bulan, mesleğiyle ilgili görev tanımını bilen öğrencilerin benlik saygısı düzeyi daha yüksek bulunmuştur (p<0,05). Mezuniyet sonrası yapacağı mesleğe yönelik kaygısı olmayan öğrencilerin benlik saygısı düzeyi daha yüksektir (p<0,05). Hastalarla iletişimden korkmayanların, mesleği yapabileceğini düşünenlerin ve ağır koşullarda çalışma kaygısı olmayanların benlik saygısı düzeyi daha yüksek bulunmuştur (p<0,01). Sonuç: Öğrencilerin sosyodemografik özellikleri, ekonomik durum ve yaşam kalitesi algısı, okudukları programı tercih nedenleri ve programa yönelik olumlu görüşleri ve mesleğe yönelik kaygıları ile yüksek benlik saygısı düzeyi arasında ilişki bulunmuştur. Öğrencilerin benlik saygısının artırılması için ailesel ve eğitsel kökenli ruh sağlığını etkileyen faktörlerin saptanarak koruyucu hizmetlerin bütüncül olarak sunulması önerilir.
