Gender and circadian preferences influence emotions and motivation in secondary mathematics classrooms.

Many studies have reported poor school achievement in evening persons and general circadian fluctuations in cognition. The aim of this study was to analyze circadian fluctuations in a cross-sectional design and examine the effects of chronotype on situational emotions and intrinsic motivation. A cross-sectional survey study was conducted in three Turkish secondary schools with a total sample of 599 students (283 females and 316 males).

Relationship between burnout levels of nurses and their circadian preference, sleep quality, and personality traits.

Occupational stress and burnout are widely encountered among many healthcare professionals, including nurses and doctors, as well as among members of other professions. For example, nurses, who have disrupted circadian rhythms, are seen to have sleep problems. In addition, their personality traits are also considered to be related with burnout.

Assessment of Genomic and Metabolic Characteristics of Cholesterol-Reducing and GABA Producer Limosilactobacillus fermentum AGA52 Isolated from Lactic Acid Fermented Shalgam Based on "In Silico" and "In Vitro" Approaches.

This study aimed to characterize the genomic and metabolic properties of a novel Lb. fermentum strain AGA52 which was isolated from a lactic acid fermented beverage called "shalgam." The genome size of AGA52 was 2,001,184 bp, which is predicted to carry 2024 genes, including 50 tRNAs, 3 rRNAs, 3 ncRNAs, 15 CRISPR repeats, 14 CRISPR spacers, and 1 CRISPR array.

Digital distraction levels of university students in emergency remote teaching.

The main objective of this study is to investigate the relationships between digital distraction, perceived learning, and general satisfaction in emergency remote teaching. Correlational design, one of the quantitative research methods, was used for the study. The study sample consists of 1532 university students in a Turkish university during Covid-19.

Investigating the relationship between personality, chronotype, computer game addiction, and sleep quality of high school students: A structural equation modelling approach.

This study examines the relationship between high school students' age, gender, personality, computer game addiction, chronotype, and sleep quality using structural equation modelling. For this purpose, the study was planned according to the correlational research design, one of the most common quantitative research methods. The sample of the study consisted of 922 students who accepted to participate and completed the scales.

Adaptation of the Morningness-Eveningness Stability Scale improved (MESSi) into Turkish.

Morningness-eveningness is an individual difference that is related with various traits such as behavioral problems, personality, and health. The aim of the current study is to adopt the Morningness-Eveningness Stability Scale improved (MESSi) which is a novel assessment tool that consists of subscales of morning affect (MA), eveningness (EV), and distinctness (DI) into Turkish. Concurrent validity of the MESSi along with Big five inventory (BIG-5), Subjective alertness level, Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) were analyzed.

Smartphone addiction proneness in relation to sleep and morningness-eveningness in German adolescents.

Background Mobile phones are an important part of adolescents' life. In this study, the relationships among smartphone addiction, age, gender, and chronotype of German adolescents were examined. Materials and methods Two studies focused on two different measures of smartphone addiction.

Is problematic mobile phone use explained by chronotype and personality?

In this study, the relationships among problematic mobile phone use, age, gender, personality and chronotype of Turkish university students were examined. The study included 902 university students (73% female, 27% male) and their participation in the study was anonymous and voluntary. Data were collected from each participant by assessing a demographic questionnaire, Composite Scale of Morningness (CSM) as a measure of chronotype, the Big Five Inventory (BIG-5) for personality assessment and Mobile Phone Problem Usage Scale (MPPUS).

Morningness-eveningness and the environment hypothesis - A cross-cultural comparison of Turkish and German adolescents.

Individuals differ in morningness-eveningness, which is their preferred time for intellectual and physical activities. Although it is a basic human trait, cross-cultural comparisons are scarce but interesting because they help to determine the influence of exogenous factors, such as ambient temperature, climate and photoperiod. We here compare a large sample of German and Turkish adolescents (N = 26 465) by using the Composite Scale of Morningness and the Morning Affect Factor.

Psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Composite Scale of Morningness.

The Composite Scale of Morningness is widely used and translated into several languages. The aim of the study was to present psychometric properties of Turkish version of CSM based on a sample of high school and university students. A total of 543 high school and 650 university students have participated in to the study.
