In this article we describe an instructional program that focuses on applying causal reasoning and related principles of the scientific method to problems faced in daily life. In a highly interactive classroom setting, the instructor gives students repeated opportunities to apply methodological reasoning to real-world scenarios for the purpose of making informed decisions. In addition to describing the program, we report the findings of a capstone exercise that examined changes in students' beliefs toward legalization of marijuana after reading persuasive communications. Students who experienced the instructional program exhibited less bias in evaluating information and less attitude polarization than students in a comparison group. We discuss the implications of these findings for developing and evaluating instructional programs in methodological reasoning in psychology.

<p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>The examination of daily life presents us the most objective information from point of sociology. Therefore, a general outlook on social relationship in life from religious point of view can contribute us to understand Islam accurately. Objectivity is basic principle in scientific method. In order to obtain theoretical generalizations, we should act from one by one objective event or fact. It can be claimed that obtaining any theory through generalizing is a safer way. There are some approaches that advice us to follow the same way to create sociological theories. They are called as “small scale approaches.” Rather than analyzing sociological theories, this article examines the possibility of adaptation of sociological approaches, regarding evaluation of daily life, to religious aspects. Eventually, it was concluded that it is possible to compare our daily life activities with those of Prophet Muhammad’s time. Shortly, the sociological examination of daily life from point of religion indicates that the main reason of collapse of the world of Turk-Islam even the whole humanity is the lack of faith-practice or essence-function in terms of educating people. The examination of daily life from point of religion can contribute to this matter of obtaining more sound mentality.</p><p><strong>Öz</strong></p><p>Gündelik hayatın tahlili bize sosyolojik açıdan birçok nesnel veri sunmaktadır. Bu sebeple, gündelik hayattaki sosyal ilişkilere dini perspektiften yaklaşmak, İslam’ın da daha doğru anlaşılması noktasında katkı sağlayabilir. Bilimsel yöntemde nesnellik esastır. Yani kuramsal genellemelere varmak için tek tek nesnel olay ve olgulardan hareket etmek gerekmektedir. Tek tek nesnel verilerin benzer sonuçlarını genelleştirerek kuramlara varmak daha isabetli bir yol olmaktadır. Sosyolojik kuramları da oluştururken benzer yolu izlemeyi tavsiye eden yaklaşımlar vardır. Bunlara küçük ölçekli yaklaşımlar adı verilmektedir. Bu yaklaşımlar gündelik hayattaki insanlar arası etkileşimden hareketle sosyolojik kuram oluşturmanın daha bilimsel bir tutum olacağını iddia etmektedirler. Makalede sosyolojik kuramların değerlendirilmesi üzerinde değil; gündelik hayatın sosyolojik tahlilinde başvurulan kategorik yöntemin dini hayata uyarlanmasının imkânı üzerinde durulmaya gayret edilmiştir. Neticede, günümüzdeki gündelik etkileşimlerimizin, Hz. Peygamber dönemindeki gündelik etkileşimlerle kıyaslanmasının mümkün olduğu kanaatine varılmıştır. Bu bağlamda makalemiz, sözel ve sözel olmayan iletişim kanalları üzerinden günlük hayattaki iletişimleri Hz. Peygamberin hadisleri doğrultusunda incelemektedir. Kısaca, gündelik hayatın dini açıdan sosyolojik tahlili bize, Türk-İslam dünyasının ve hatta tüm insanlığın çöküşünün esas nedeninin iman-amel veya öz-işlev arasındaki ilişkinin tamamlamacı niteliğinin bireylere benimsetilememesi olduğunu göstermektedir. Gündelik hayatın dini açıdan tahlili bu konuda daha sağlam bir zihniyete kavuşma zemininin oluşumunda önemli katkılar sunabilir.</p>

Counseling Adolescents

Abstract Audiologists have a responsibility to counsel patients with auditory concerns on methods to manage the inherent challenges associated with hearing loss at every point in the process: evaluation, hearing aid fitting, and follow-up visits. Adolescents with hearing loss struggle with the typical developmental challenges along with communicative challenges that can erode one's self-esteem and self-worth. The feeling of “not being connected” to peers can result in feelings of isolation and depression. This article advocates the use of a Narrative Therapy approach to counseling adolescents with hearing loss. Adolescents with hearing loss often have problem-saturated narratives regarding various components of their daily life, friendships, amplification, academics, etc. Audiologists can work with adolescents with hearing loss to deconstruct the problem-saturated narratives and rebuild the narratives into a more empowering message. As the adolescent retells their positive narrative, they are likely to experience increased self-esteem and self-worth.
