Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Gender Differences in Cyber Dating Violence Among Adolescents and Young Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis(Wiley, 2025-12-01) Erbicer, Eyup Sabir; Metin, Ahmet; Zencir, Tolga; Boranli, Ece Nur; Demirtas, Ezgi Toplu; Sen, SedatDespite the growing body of research on cyber dating violence, a comprehensive understanding of gender differences in cyber-violent behaviors across developmental stages remains limited. The main purpose of this meta-analytic review was to estimate the direction and magnitude of gender differences in cyber dating violence perpetration and victimization by synthesizing results from various studies. The second purpose of this study was to examine the effect of potential moderators (i.e., continent, age, grade level, time frame, method of survey administration, the metric of the outcome, study design, publication status, and publication year) on these differences. Various databases were used to identify relevant studies, including PubMed, Web of Science (WoS), Scopus, PsycINFO, ERIC, and ProQuest. Eighty-one individual studies with a total sample of 70,233 participants, ranging in age from 10 to 30 years (M = 18.94), were included based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria in the present study. Most studies were conducted in North America and Europe with the largest proportions from the United States and Spain. Results indicated that there were no statistically significant gender differences (women vs. men; girls vs. boys) in perpetration and victimization of cyber dating violence. Moderator analyses showed that grade level and sample age were statistically significant moderators of gender differences in cyber dating violence victimization. However, other moderators (continent, time frame, method of survey administration, the metric of the outcome, study design, publication status, and publication year) were not statistically significant. This study contributes to understanding gender differences in cyber-violent behaviors during adolescence and emerging adulthood and highlights the importance of some moderators when developing targeted prevention and intervention strategies.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Determining the Effect of Video Information on the Dental Anxiety Levels of the Endodontic Patients: a Randomised Clinical Trial(Wiley, 2025-06-12) Anatürk, Şule; Dönmez Özkan, Hicran; Saral, İlkim Pınar; Çakar, Tuna; Ozkan, Hicran DonmezObjective The present study assessed the effectiveness of pretreatment education in the form of Visual Video Information (VVI) on the anxiety levels of patients during endodontic treatment steps. Methods Patients (n = 120) having single-rooted teeth with a single root canal diagnosed with asymptomatic irreversible pulpitis and/or pre-prosthetic root canal treatment were included in this study. After completing anxiety scales and a sociodemographic/dental habits survey, the patients were randomly divided into two groups. Just before the endodontic treatment, VVI was given to the video group patients, while the control group patients received routine information verbally. In both groups, a galvanic skin response (GSR) device was placed on the patients' wrists to record the stress levels during the endodontic treatment process. Anxiety scales and a feedback-satisfaction survey were administered to all patients after the treatment process. Then, statistical analysis was performed (alpha = 0.05). Results This study performed 60 endodontic treatments on 60 patients (30 females and 30 males). Sociodemographic characteristics and dental treatment habits of the patients significantly affected dental anxiety scale scores (p < 0.05). VVI resulted in a significant decrease in the mean scores of anxiety before and after the treatment, but this decrease was not significant between the groups (p > 0.05). Similarly, VVI did not impact the GSR readings between the groups during treatment (p > 0.05). Conclusions The educational VVI is effective for reducing anxiety in patients undergoing endodontic treatment. In addition, the electrodermal activity method is a promising alternative for objectively assessing anxiety levels.
