The Real-Life-Based School Dictionary (RLBSD) is an innovative educational resource developed as an experimental, results-oriented teaching material for contemporary learning environments. It is a dictionary application designed in accordance with lexicographic principles and methods. The RLBSD is based on a special-purpose corpus consisting of natural language data that children aged 6–15 are likely to encounter in educational contexts. In lexic…
The Real-life-based School Dictionary for Turkish
This report aims to describe the development of a new, original, and monolingual dictionary as an educational resource named the Real-life-based School Dictionary (RLBSD). There is a general lack of corpus-based school dictionaries in the Turkish context. The existing dictionaries are based on native speaker intuitions and are far from being empirical, indicating the need for the development of a corpus-based dictionary. In this respect, the RLBS…
The Effects of Perceived Discrimination and Backlash on Iraqi Refugees’ Mental and Physical Health
The effects of discrimination and the post-9/11 backlash on Iraqi refugees have not yet been fully examined. The present study aimed to adapt a scale of the perceived backlash (BTS; a modified version of the Race Related Stressors Scale), and measure its relationships with Cumulative Trauma Dose (CTD), Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and health. The BTS was found to have high reliability; and construct, convergent, divergent, and predictiv…
The effects of post-retribution inter-group forgiveness
Research on forgiveness on the interpersonal level has found evidence of its positive health and mental health effects. However, there is no research on the health and mental health benefits of forgiveness in political conflicts. The removal of the dictator and the war in Iraq has provided researchers with opportunities to answer some questions about the effects of forgiveness in political conflicts. This study used a modified measure of forgiven…
The Physical and Mental Health Effects of Iraq War Media Exposure on Iraqi Refugees

We used measures of media exposure, families and friends killed in the war, cumulative trauma, torture, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), cumulative trauma disorders, and health. Data indicates media exposure to war news was highly predictive of PTSD and poor health aft…
Public space networks as a guide to sustainable urban development and social life
This study examines the possibility of designating and implementing a citywide public space network, constituted of randomly dispersed and not interrelated public spaces and greenways across the city of Muğla. Although Muğla is a major coastal province, with worldwide tourism districts, the city centre falls behind other settlements in terms of quality of social life, physical layout, economic investment and tourism revenue. In 2001, the local go…
The Mental Health Effects of Retributive Justice
The goal of this study was to examine whether the retributive justice enacted by the elimination of the oppressive regime in Iraq has positive mental health effects on Iraqi refugees. The study was conducted on a sample of 501 Iraqi refugees. Data was collected with measures for retributive justice, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), cumulative trauma disorder (CTD), cumulative trauma, futuristic orientation, sociocultural adjustment, post-tr…
