“…In fact, it can be said that in the present circumstances today that the trainings done to increase the athletes' sporting capacities and resilience are insufficient in the increasing competitive environment. What is distinguishing for the performances of the athletes today is their psychological resilience because it is expected from an athlete with high psychological resilience to have high subjective well-being, self-esteem, stress threshold (Savi Çakar & Tagay, 2017;Akdoğan & Yalçın, 2018;Doğan & Eryılmaz, 2013;Kamya, 2000). Today, everyone is able to access to the best training methods, proper nutrition principles and physical facilities in sports.…”

The performances of the athletes can change from competition to competition under the pressure of heavy exercise and success anxiety during the season. The help obtained from sports psychology in order to minimize these fluctuations in the performance of the athlete is an important component in increasing the psychological resilience of the athlete. The aim of this study is to examine the psychological resilience of elite athletes in terms of various variables. This research is a descriptive survey model study in terms of defining psychological resilience levels of elite athletes. In this study, the Psychological Resilience Scale developed by Friborg et al. (2005) and adapted to Turkey by Basım and Çetin (2011), and the personal data form developed by the researcher for collecting personal information were used to determine the psychological resilience of elite athletes. The data of the research was collected from 147 national athletes in different branches, including 79 males and 68 females. SPSS 21.00 statistical package program was used in data analysis. Descriptive statistics, independent groups t-test, one-way variance analysis, correlation and regression analyses were used in data analysis. As a result of the study, it was found that the psychological resilience of elite athletes differed according to the athlete's gender, sports branch, their tendency to use doping, whether the athletes make self-talk or not, but did not differ according to the athlete's age, sports experience, and smoking and alcohol use.

“…Latest research has revealed that well-being of adoles-cents has been associated with life of meaning, social support, emotion regulation and psychological needs satisfaction (Li & Feng, 2018;Morrish, Rickard, Chin & Vella-Brodrick, 2018;Yang, Li, Fu & Kou, 2017;You, Lim & Kim, 2018). Furthermore, previous studies on Turkish adolescents have demonstrated the association of well-being with various variables such as optimism, self-esteem, interpersonal competence, social acceptance, social support and personality traits (Arslan, 2018;Baytemir, 2016;Çakar & Tagay;2015;Duy & Yıldız, 2017;Eryılmaz & Öğülmüş, 2010). These findings suggest that the research concerning the contributing factors on well-being has important outcomes in understanding the positive youth development.…”

Título: Flexibilidad cognitiva y bienestar mental en adolescentes turcos: El papel mediador de la autoeficacia académica, social y emocional. Resumen: La adolescencia es una etapa crítica de crecimiento y desarrollo en el ciclo de vida de un individuo. Debido a la importancia del éxito en el desarrollo durante esta etapa, con implicaciones del desarrollo adulto y la salud mental positiva, el presente estudio tiene como objetivo examinar los roles predictores de la flexibilidad cognitiva y la autoeficacia en el bienestar mental de los adolescentes turcos. Además, dado que se considera que la asociación entre la flexibilidad cognitiva y la autoeficacia tiene efectos cruciales en el bienestar mental de los adolescentes, se suponía que la autoeficacia académica, social y emocional podría mediar la relación entre la flexibilidad cognitiva y el bienestar mental. . Los participantes de la investigación están compuestos por 192 mujeres (49 %) y 200 hombres (51 %), Un total de 392 estudiantes de secundaria que asistían a cuatro escuelas secundarias diferentes se inscribieron en los grados 9-12, en una ciudad de Turquía. El Inventario de Flexibilidad Cognitiva, la Escala de Autoeficacia para Niños y la Escala de Bienestar Mental Warwick-Edinburgh se aplicaron en la recolección de datos. Los resultados mostraron que la flexibilidad cognitiva se correlacionó positivamente con las subdimensiones de autoeficacia y bienestar mental. Además, las subdimensiones de autoeficacia se correlacionan positivamente con el bienestar mental. Los resultados del modelo mediacional indicaron que la autoeficacia académica, social y emocional sirvió para mediar la relación entre la flexibilidad cognitiva y el bienestar mental. Los resultados de la investigación se discutieron a la luz de la literatura y se propusieron algunas sugerencias para expertos e investigadores en salud mental.

“…Perceived emotional support from parents and teachers has been noted to lead to various positive social, health, and academic outcomes for adolescents (Song, Bong, Lee, & Kim, 2015; Wentzel, Russell, & Baker, 2016). Adult support also has a significant negative effect on adolescent risky behaviors (Cakar & Tagay, 2017). Thus, it is necessary for adolescent care providers and adult stakeholders to build trust and rapport with adolescents to promote open and honest communication and encourage disclosure.…”

Cyberbullying is a pervasive public health issue, affecting 10% to 50% of adolescents and resulting in significant negative health outcomes. Due to the relative newness of cyberbullying, there are many elements of the phenomenon that are not understood. Fifteen adolescents and young adults who had experienced cyberbullying as adolescents, participated in one-on-one, semi-structured interviews. A grounded theory and model, Emerging From Cyberbullying, was constructed to describe the process of being a victim of cyberbullying. The process began by Being Targeted and a cycle of Being Cyberbullied, Losing Oneself, and Attempting to Cope followed. Once out of the cycle, victims could begin the process of Resolving and Finding Oneself. This theory can be used to inform cyberbullying prevention efforts and adolescent providers can utilize this theory to understand the process of being a victim of cyberbullying, promote open discussions with adolescents about cyberbullying, and offer suggestions for effective methods to cope.
