    Intentions to Return and Migrate to the Third Countries: A Socio-Demographic Investigation Among Syrians in Turkey
    (SpringerLink, 2023) Ergün, Naif; Zafer Özkan, Ayberk Eryılmaz, Naif Ergün
    Turkey hosts the highest number of Syrians in the world. While some of them intend to migrate to Western countries, others intend to return to their homeland. In a cross-sectional study, we examined several socio-demographic associates with their migration intentions (N=358). Results revealed that their intentions to migrate were related to factors such as gender, living in the East or West in the host country, employment status, the language spoken at home, owning a property in the host country, accommodation conditions (living in a camp, staying with relatives, e.g.), and education level. Moreover, the strongest correlates of intention to return were years spent in Turkey, perceived threat in Syria, the number of children, and age. Finally, the strongest correlates for intentions to migrate to Western countries were Turkish speaking level, the number of children, and family income. We discuss the fndings in relation to the integration paradox hypothesis.

    Social Media Addiction and Poor Mental Health: Examining the Mediating Roles of Internet Addiction and Phubbing
    (Sage Journals, 2023) Ergün, Naif; Özkan, Zafer; Griffiths, Mark D.
    Many researchers have examined the potential detrimental role of problematic social media use (often referred as ‘social media addiction’) on mental health. The present study investigated how social media addiction is associated with three components of mental health: depression, anxiety, and stress. In addition, structural equation modeling was used to test the mediating roles of internet addiction and phubbing among a sample of young adults (N = 603). Results showed that social media addiction was associated with poorer mental health via internet addiction and phubbing. More specifically, associations between social media addiction and stress, and social media addiction and anxiety were explained by both internet addiction and phubbing. The association between social media addiction and depression was explained by internet addiction only. These results remained consistent after controlling for gender, age, frequency of internet use, frequency of social media use, and frequency of smartphone use. These findings extend the extant literature by providing evidence for the dual roles of internet addiction and phubbing in explaining the relationship between social media addiction and poor mental health. Social media addiction did not directly influence poorer mental health but did via internet addiction and phubbing. Therefore, greater awareness of the inter-relationships between technology-based behaviors and their impact on mental health is needed among a wide range of stakeholders, and these inter-relationships need considering in the prevention and treatment of technology-based disorders.
