In the assessment of the internal consistency of the scales, the present study considered the Cronbachs alphas coefficient. This study aims (1) to provide a practical sample size guide based on Cronbachs alpha for medical researchers; (2) to investigate the factors related to the determination of the sample size needed for a correct estimation of Cronbachs alpha. Method: The calculation steps of the two sample size approaches (desired precision and desired power) proposed by Bonett are detailed and the sample size tables of these approaches are tabulated. Results: Findings indicate that as the number of items in the scale increases, the sample size decreases to a certain level but reaches a plateau when the number of items is about 30. Furthermore, it is claimed that the sample size should be at least 45 (and more) in order to calculate a meaningful internal consistency coefficient. Conclusions: In the present study, we extracted detailed information about the key components of sample size calculation for Cronbachs alpha and provided an easy and practical tables, which will enable clinicians to determine the appropriate sample size for their internal consistency studies.","PeriodicalId":74168,"journal":{"name":"MedPress psychiatry and behavioral sciences","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77473072","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: An online survey was conducted with 652 healthcare professionals in May 2020 to assess their perceptions of obsession and related factors. Sociodemographic data form, COVID-19 Disease Perception Scale, COVID-19 Avoidance Attitudes Scale, Maudsley Obsessive Compulsive Questionnaire and Eysenck Personality Questionnaire were used in the study. Results: Significant predictors of COVID-19-related contagiousness perception were young age (β=-0.235, p<0.001), low psychoticism (β=-0.091, p=0.018), and high cleansing obsessions (β=0.127, p=0.004). It has been found that individuals with high extroverted personality traits (β=0.123, p=0.002) and more intense ruminative thoughts (β=0.117, p=0.003) have more cognitive avoidance from COVID-19, and those in the young age group (β=-0.184, p<0.001) with high education level (β=0.128, p=0.001) and intensive cleaning obsessions (β=0.090, p=0.030) have a behavioral avoidance attitude from COVID-19. Conclusion: In the course of the COVID 19 pandemic, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) symptoms may be a response to protecting yourself and others from the virus. Our data support the suggestion that public health advice during pandemics should include mental health campaigns aimed at reducing the psychological effects of pandemics.","PeriodicalId":74168,"journal":{"name":"MedPress psychiatry and behavioral sciences","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77172451","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Second aim is to investigate the effects of electronic media use on quality of life (QoL) in both groups. Methods: Ninety-nine individuals aged between 6 and 18, diagnosed with ADHD after psychiatric examination, were investigated with regard to electronic media usage duration and QoL and compared with control group. Results: No significant difference was found between groups regarding average daily electronic media usage (ADHD group 5.42±4.08 hours, control group 5.60±4.68 hours; z=0.30, p=0.762) except for tablet use which was higher in the control group. Adolescents used computers and cell phones significantly more than pre-adolescent children. Tablet usage duration is found to have a negative relationship with school QoL (r=-0.399, p<0.001) in ADHD group and computer use duration has a negative relationship with physical QoL (r=-0.339, p<0.001) in the control group. Conclusion: Excessive electronic media usage may have different detrimental effects on QoL both for healthy children and children with ADHD. Taking preventive measures against excessive electronic media usage may be crucial for the healthy development and improved QoL among children instead of clinical diagnosis.","PeriodicalId":74168,"journal":{"name":"MedPress psychiatry and behavioral sciences","volume":"50 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83250274","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: 40 active (26 mania and14 depression episodes) and 40 euthymic state of disease of the 80 patients with BD and 48 healthy volunteers were included to the study. Measurement of the levels of serum total antioxidant (TAS) and serum total oxidant (TOS), Oxidative Stress Index (OSI), and 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) levels were calculated and evaluated. Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D), Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS) and Clinical Global Impression Scale (CGI) were administered. Results: In patients with BD, TAS, TOS, OSI, and 8-OHdG levels were significantly higher than controls (all p<0.001). TOS level significantly higher in female than men in BD (p=0.016). A significantly positive weak correlation was detected between the TAS level and CGI score (p=0.031, r=0.241), HAM-D score (p=0.040, r=0.231) in BD. When patients in the active and euthymic state were compared with the control group separately, in both groups TAS, TOS, OSI, and 8-OHdG levels were significantly higher than controls (all p<0.001). However, there was no significant difference in TOS, OSI, and 8-OHdG levels between patients in the active or euthymic state of disease. Conclusion: Oxidants and DNA damage are high in patient with BD. No difference of the oxidants and DNA damage between the active and euthymic state of disease reveals that oxidative stress damages on the body although the symptoms of the disease to quiet down.
