“…Psychological trauma caused by a profound experience of threat, such as sexual abuse, has been reported to lead to a longer-lasting syndrome called post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which has been defined and validated in the clinical literature and is often associated with devastating functional impairment (Chang et al 2018). Studies concluded that exposure to childhood sexual abuse is associated with psychiatric problems such as depression, anxiety, anti-social behaviors, suicide (Hailes et al 2013) and substance abuse (Odacı et al 2021), mental health and adjustment problems. Childhood sexual abuse victims were also associated with higher rates of sexual dysfunctions and related problems (Pulverman et al 2018).…”

Child sexual abuse is a traumatic life event that has social, psychological, political and cultural dimensions which is observed in many societies. Sexual abused children are at risk of developing behavioral, emotional, cognitive and physical health problems throughout their lives, and are especially vulnerable when their current condition is combined with other risk factors, such as poverty. In the relevant literature, it is reported that these children have a greater risk of having psychological problems and require treatment. There is evidence that psychotherapeutic treatments have beneficial effects, including ensuring the physical and emotional safety of victims, helping to relieve trauma symptoms, improving quality and functioning of life, and preventing recurrence of abuse. In this review, some of the most common treatment issues for sexual abused children are presented. The appropriateness of the treatment issues and proposed interventions addressed may vary for each victim. These treatment issues and interventions are designed not only to remedy any harm that may have occurred, but also to minimize the negative consequences of experiences of child abuse and prevent future recurrence of maltreatment.

“…EI is positively associated with the Cognitive Styles of Construction Professionals Cognitive Styles and Job Performance Studies have shown that a person's cognitive style can significantly impact their job performance, especially in leadership positions. Cognitive inflexibility can lead to an unyielding approach that can adversely affect personal and professional life (Odacı et al, 2021). Similarly, there is empirical evidence that cognitive styles influence creativity, interpersonal relationships, national culture, decision-making, management, and learning and information processing, all of which are critical components for productive performance (Armstrong et al, 2012).…”

Over the years, construction scholars have identified the essence of professionals' cognitive styles and emotional intelligence in project delivery. This study contributes to the ongoing discussion on the construction stakeholders' job performance by identifying the direct and indirect influence of cognitive styles (knowing, planning, and creating styles) and underlying emotional intelligence dimensions (self-emotional appraisal, use of emotion, regulation of emotion and other's emotional appraisal) on construction professionals' job performance. Using survey data from Sarawak construction consultants, the population stood at 311, while 180 were sampled for this study. Structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to confirm the underpinning cognitive-motivational relational theory (CMRT) and the role of cognitive styles in emotional intelligence and job performance link. The findings demonstrated the mediating role of cognitive styles on the emotional intelligence and job performance relationship. The limitations and future research directions are also discussed.

“…There may be some reasons for this apparent relationship. For example, individuals exposed to negative experiences in the early stages of life are more likely to show decreased cognitive flexibility later in life (Kalia & Knauft, 2020; Odacı et al, 2021). Since individuals with low cognitive flexibility cannot stay in the moment (Moore & Malinowski, 2009), this may negatively affect the academic motivation of adolescents.…”

Studies showed that fear of negative evaluation of students may affect their academic motivation. However, which variables mediate between academic motivation and fear of negative evaluation is unclear. This study aims to explore the mediating role of cognitive flexibility and critical thinking in the relationship between academic motivation and fear of negative evaluation in adolescents. A correlational design was used to examine this relationship. A total of 2085 adolescents ages 13–14 (65% female) participated in this study. The data were collected via self‐report screening tools, including a personal information form, Academic Motivation Scale, Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale, Cognitive Flexibility Scale, and Critical Thinking Scale. The findings revealed a moderate negative correlation between academic motivation and fear of negative evaluation (r = −.49), and cognitive flexibility and critical thinking also partially mediate. This model explains approximately 41% of the total variance. Despite some limitations, our study provides partial evidence of the mediating effect of cognitive flexibility and critical thinking between academic motivation and fear of negative evaluation. More research is needed to develop the model.
