Psychology \ 3-3
The Change Agenda is not an agenda to advise, advise, or incite. Psychotherapy is not! However, while we were preparing this agenda, we took the basic knowledge of psychology and psychotherapy theories as a basis. We aimed to contribute to your reasoning and emotion regulation skills and increase your level of psychological flexibility without overwhelming you with theoretical knowledge, especially by acting on the axis of schools such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapies, Emotion-Focused Therapy, Positive Psychology and Mindfulness.
We have designed the Exchange Agenda, which can be used by students who are busy with the exam, regardless of their group, from secondary education to university, so that you can use it throughout the year. Although our main aim is to provide guidance and support to students who are anxious during exam and performance processes, there are many exercises in this agenda to improve their ability to regulate thoughts, behaviors and emotions.
While working with this agenda, you will be able to improve your skills of "making worry useful" and "increasing tolerance to worry" as well as "reducing anxiety". Therefore, in the Change A genda, you will find sections where you can discover the causes of problems, recognize the factors that trigger negative emotions in your inner and outer world, and develop appropriate strategies for how to regulate them. Come on, come with us to increase your self-confidence and focus on unlocking your true potential!

Social phobia or social anxiety disorder is one of the most common mental problems. It usually starts before adolescence and severely restricts the individual's life for many years if left untreated. This book aims to be a guide that individuals with social anxiety problems can apply on their own or in the presence of a therapist, based on many scientific researches and theories developed on social phobia. In the first part of the book, information about the origins, symptoms and treatment options of social phobia is given, while in the second part, various techniques and applications that can be used to overcome social anxiety are presented. We hope that the book, written using a simple and understandable language, will be a useful resource for individuals suffering from social anxiety, as well as for mental health professionals and students.
It is estimated that nearly half of the world's population, which is approaching 8 billion, uses social media. The current stop of the journey of using communication technologies, which started with the telegraph, is seen as social media. In an increasingly digitalizing world, social media undoubtedly affects people in every aspect of their lives. Consumer, customer, parent, business person, lover, voter… Regardless of identity, people are more or less in contact with social media, they affect someone more or less on social media, and they are also more or less influenced by others on social media.
This book presents a selection of theoretical and empirical studies on the role of social media in human and mass psychology.

Schizophrenia is a psychiatric disorder whose treatment is mostly limited to medical applications. Due to false beliefs that have existed since ancient times, it was thought that patients with schizophrenia would not benefit much from psychological treatments. Perhaps for this reason, few studies have been conducted on the psychological treatment of schizophrenia in our country. In the West, interest in this field has increased over the years and the effectiveness of Cognitive Behavioral Therapies, which are used in the treatment of many different mental problems, has also been proven in the treatment of schizophrenia.
This book contains the research and applications of the authors in this field for more than 10 years and was written with the belief that it will be a guide on psychosocial treatment for clinicians working with individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia. In this guide, the causes of schizophrenia, its main features, the main measurement tools necessary to evaluate these features, and different techniques used in psychosocial treatment, as well as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) are especially emphasized. By presenting information on the application of CBT techniques in a group setting, a therapy program created by the authors and tested by scientific research is explained in detail. Finally, the questions frequently encountered by clinicians working in this field and the answers that can help these questions are also included.
We hope it will be useful to everyone working in the field…

Our elderly world has also started to age demographically. Although the phenomenon of aging is mostly accepted as a problem of developed countries, it is now an issue that should be emphasized as much as developed countries. Since the beginning of the twentieth century, there has been a significant increase in the number and proportion of the elderly as a result of the improvement of health conditions, decrease in fertility and increase in quality of life with the effect of industrialization. This increase; It has caused rapid and important changes in family and community life, changed social institutions, behavior and values, and affected the status and functions of the elderly. In this process, while the family structure and social structure changed, the readiness of the family and the institutions did not change in the same direction. While the improvement of living conditions ensures longevity, the economic, social and health-related problems of longevity are generally ignored.
This book will be useful for individuals to equip themselves with basic information about aging and to develop an attitude towards solving problems. It is a source book especially for academicians working in health and social fields, students studying in the field and those who are interested in the subject.

TAKE CARE OF YOUR BRAIN. BE YOUR OWN CURE.
Cognitive decline can mean many things and it can take on many shapes. Most of us, for instance, are at least vaguely familiar with diseases such as dementia. The effects and consequences of these diseases have already been heavily codified in our collective consciousness. We see it in movies. Maybe we've heard about it from our friends and relatives. Some of us may even have direct experience caring for a loved one suffering from the effects of dementia. But regardless of whether or not we've had direct experience with someone with cognitive impairment, we know that it can wreak havoc on not just the individuals, but also their families and communities.
However, cognitive decline can also mean something much less drastic. It can look like something as innocuous as forgetting certain words, or names, or places, or dates, or forgetting where you put your keys, or what you went to the grocery store for. It can look like depression or withdrawal. It can look like a lack of focus or attention. Whether or not you're concerned about having dementia in the future, the fact of the matter is that, after a certain point in our lives, all of our brains and their cognitive functions are going to get worse. It's just a matter of when and how severe. But there are things we can do to combat this, to stave off the inevitable. By taking control of your lifestyle, you can take control of your cognitive health. You can be your own cure for dementia.

This book has been written to shed light on the traumas that are an integral part of our lives. It aimed to illuminate and raise awareness about many traumatic experiences from infancy to adulthood, from natural disasters to torture, from sexual harassment to terrorism, from mobbing to Coronavirus.
In addition, the lives of famous actors we watch in TV series and movies, musicians whose songs we listen to, political figures, athletes or writers whose books we read with admiration are examined. How these people, each of whom experienced deprivation, desperation, disappointment, harassment, abuse, and rape, cling to life, struggle, and how they reached the top from scratch are covered. For example, in all these lives, those who had a difficult childhood, who did not trust themselves, who felt inadequate, who had fear of failure, said, “I wonder! Can I do it one day too! Can I do it!” I hope it will be instructive, motivating and encouraging for everyone who thinks so.

Trauma; it is defined as the whole of the effects that arouse feelings of extreme fear, horror, and helplessness, often caused by extraordinary and unexpected events. Adaptation problems after these traumatic events are inevitable, but in some people these problems can go from being short-term and last for months or even years.
In this book, how trauma is defined in different periods, explanatory models, risk and protective factors are compiled. In addition, Cognitive Processing Therapy, which has been proven to be the most effective treatment plan in the light of the effectiveness studies of psychological interventions, is introduced and different study modules of this approach are presented. This intervention plan, which is a branch of Cognitive-Behavioral therapies, focuses on the differentiation of trauma memory and post-traumatic growth processes rather than coping with trauma. In the case study presented at the end of the book, these focal points of the intervention plan and the treatment plan are exemplified.

When we consider that traumas as old as human history first took place in the Epic of Gilgamesh, and that traumatic symptoms seen in soldiers are mentioned in the works of Homer, it is clear that traumatic events and their consequences are phenomena that constantly evolve. This book aims to reveal this disorder, whose scientific information is constantly changing due to its dynamic structure and obscurity, within the framework of the latest scientific data we have. The book explains in detail the history of post-traumatic stress disorder, clinical diagnosis conditions, the dialectical structure and biochemistry of trauma, and introduces approaches that will enable victims to control and manage and reduce this disorder and its symptoms. Another feature of the book is that it contains the necessary question lists, questionnaires and individual tables so that the information given in it can be applied in practice.
This book deals with social influence, attitude change and persuasion, which are among the most popular topics in social psychology, political science, marketing and communication sciences.
"Social influence and persuasion", which is an extremely important issue in terms of both public relations, advertising and mass communication studies, is also of great importance in terms of efforts to cope with social problems such as smoking and substance abuse, inequalities in education, and non-compliance with traffic rules.
Persuasion has a special place in daily life as well. We are constantly trying to persuade family members, friends, the opposite sex, and our employers.
This subject, which has both individual, social and global importance, is covered in this book by defining basic concepts in detail, examining traditional and contemporary theoretical approaches, and giving practical clues in line with current research findings.

The book is a work that includes the scientific studies of academics from many different disciplines on femicide, and in this sense, it is the first study in its field in Turkey. In the book, femicide has been discussed from various aspects, and the subject has been tried to be examined from perspectives such as social work, sociology, psychology, forensic sciences and religious sciences. Of course, we are aware that it is difficult to explain a very important issue such as femicide in a book with all its aspects, but we have done this study hoping that this work will be a start in order to increase the number of studies in this direction.
The book is dedicated to all women in Turkey, whose names are unknown and who fell victim to male terror for various reasons, along with symbolic names such as Emine Yılmaz, Özgecan Aslan, Güldunya Ceremony and Ayşe Paşalı. We hope that this book will be useful to all people working in the field, especially decision makers, and thus contribute to the prevention of femicide.

Applied Social Psychology book, as far as we know, has the feature of being the first systematic resource written in this field in Turkey. Applied social psychology goes beyond the traditional application areas of psychology and presents the theoretical and empirical accumulation of (social) psychology within the framework of a holistic approach to the interventions and practices applied in order to solve social problems and increase social welfare. This book, which highlights the application areas rather than the basic scientific approach, integrates approaches from different disciplines of psychology with social psychological approaches.
Due to the wide variety of topics, this book is grouped into four main groups: The chapters in the first part focus on the basic principles and theoretical basis of applied social psychology and aim to lay the groundwork for applications. The second part of the book; It focuses on intervention programs developed to solve social problems such as migration, poverty, inequalities, conflict, consumption and social security. Third part; It includes chapters that highlight the role of social psychology in developing practice in areas such as health, education, business, law, politics, environment, sports and traffic. The last part consists of sections dealing with the cooperation between clinical psychology approaches, which is the traditional application area of psychology, and social psychology approaches.

This book; It covers family theories and case examples that have an important place in family counseling.
The book provides information about the theoretical background of the concept of family counseling for its readers. In the first part of the book, family counseling based on people's emotional functions and behaviors, called “Murray Bowen's Family Systems Theory” or “Bowen Therapy”, is described. “Imago Spouse” is chosen by the individual to treat unresolved problems and “Marriage is a kind of cure.” "Imago Therapy", as a family therapy theory developed by Hendrix and his wife, is also covered in the second chapter. In the third chapter, Satir's theory, which defines parents as “the conscious or unconscious working architects of their existing families by bringing together what they have learned from their root families” is discussed. The theory and techniques of "Systemic Family Therapy", also known as the Milan group, are also discussed in the fourth chapter.

Creative brain is creative thinking towards innovation.
In this book, we will first start with the medical structure and functioning of the brain, and then we will touch on how it works and how it reacts cognitively.
We will analyze issues such as how managers' minds should work, how they should make decisions, and what are the obstacles to correct thinking with examples.
We will continue with the connection of the brain with thought, behavior and happiness.
Then we will consider how we can nurture the mind to develop creative thinking, how the brain can focus on more creative ideas, and what activities will lead the mind to innovative ideas.
Items such as the Brain-Computer interface, the transformation of visual data in the brain into meaningful data with various tools and techniques, data mining, human-machine communication, how the thoughts of individuals with cognitive disabilities can turn into data will also be included as a section.
Finally, we will be researching and interpreting how the brains of world-famous visionaries, entrepreneurs, inventors, business people, revolutionaries and geniuses work, how they manage business, and their behavioral models with examples.
In summary, our aim in this book is to guide the society in activities that develop creative or, if possible, unique thinking, by trying to research and discover the miraculous working system of the brain from an informatics point of view.

Individual; it is an entity that is constantly developing, affecting its environment, being affected by the environment and changing. This development and change process of the individual can bring along adaptation problems. In order to understand the possible incompatibilities experienced by the individual with himself, others and the society, and to carry out studies to increase harmony, it is necessary to know what harmony and incompatibility are, what types of adjustment problems exist, what factors affect adjustment problems, and what can be done to prevent and intervene in adjustment problems. For this reason, this book, which deals with all development periods of the individual from birth to death and possible adaptation problems that he may experience, is a resource for experts and students working in the field.
In the twenty-first century, demographic change is taking place that has never happened in world history, and no country is outside this scope. While increasing life expectancy and lowering birth rates are considered great achievements in modern science and health care, their significant impact on future generations is underrated. No matter how long we live, it becomes necessary for every country to rethink and restructure its social and economic institutions in order to ensure the well-being of individuals when working life ends. The aging of societies can affect economic growth and the sustainability of families, the ability of states and societies to provide resources for older people, and many other issues, including international relations. Despite scientific evidence, the importance and global implications of population aging are not yet fully understood. There is a need to raise awareness not only of global aging issues, but also of the importance of rigorous international scientific research and policy dialogue to help us respond to the challenges and opportunities of an aging world.
This book paints a picture of the impact of the aging population on the economy, society, family and environment. We hope this book, consisting of twenty chapters and contributed by 32 authors, will encourage you to identify the best ways to address dialogue, international studies, and the universal human experience about work, economics, family, communication, landscaping, and behavioral issues. We believe that scientists and every member of the society will be inspired by these suggestions and experiences in planning our own future, the aging and aging policies of the world societies and our country.
