In its simplest definition, obesity is an increase in excessive fat accumulation in the body in a way that impairs health. If the energy taken with food is more than the energy spent, the excess energy is stored as fat in the body and causes obesity. Obesity has negative effects on all systems and psychological states in the body, and these effects cause many health problems. Childhood obesity is a serious medical condition that affects children and adolescents. Being healthy is not limited to the physical well-being of the child. At the same time, the child's psychological well-being is a condition that creates a whole with the development of a positive self-perception about himself. Preventing obesity is crucial to the health and well-being of children. Prevention of obesity in children can achieve with parents' conscious and active participation.</p> <p>In this study, childhood obesity and its precautions were compiled by researching various publications.</p>2022-09-01T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2022 International Scientific Journal Visionhttps://visionjournal.edu.mk/social/index.php/1/article/view/114ANXIETY DISORDER AND PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS IN ADOLESCENTS2022-12-09T11:10:10+01:00Müedin Kahvecimuhittin.kahveci@vizyon.edu.mkTuna Tünertuna.tuner@vizyon.edu.mk<p>Adolescence is when the individual develops and changes physically and spiritually, which begins after childhood. The individual started forming his ideas and thoughts and tried establishing his independence and identity in this period. In this process, the individual grows physically with her biological development and tries to understand her sexist identity with her sexual story. Because she has passed into the abstract period, she also forms her cognitive development.In adolescence, the period when all these developments are experienced, the individual is to gain and create his own identity. With the psychological effect of changes, adolescents are in stress and anxiety. As the state of anxiety causes positive situations in adolescents, this anxiety in which the physical and mental balance cannot establish causes psychological-based disorders. Anxiety disorder is one of them. Anxiety disorder occurs due to genetics, drugs, stress, and chemical substance use. It is a mental and physical disorder that the individual shapes without any relation to reality, has consequences on the adolescent, and affects the development and life functioning of the adolescent. These are panic attack disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and separation anxiety disorder. Conditions such as the adolescent's not continuing his education, his family's attitude, and the adolescent's personality traits affect this situation.</p>2022-09-01T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2022 International Scientific Journal Visionhttps://visionjournal.edu.mk/social/index.php/1/article/view/115THE CONCEPT OF GENDER AND RELATED THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK2022-12-09T11:15:14+01:00Sehida Rizvance Masansehida.rizvancemasan@vizyon.edu.mk<p> Considering the fact that society treats women and men differently by assigning different characteristics, roles and responsibilities, the increasing number of studies on the causes of these differences has drawn attention to the concepts of "sex" and "gender".</p> <p>The concept of gender can be named as the stereotypes, judgments and prejudices acquired by the individual regarding gender during the socialization process, unlike the biological sex of the person.

In another word, the power to enact decrees, appoint bureaucrats and judicial officials into offices, and the power to dissolve a parliament belongs solely to the president. As strong presidency fuse with disciplined party system as well as concurrent elections and 10 percent electoral threshold, the president possibly poses a great danger to the separation of powers. Additionally, with regards to the presidential term, the president constitutionally holds the power to be elected only for two terms in Turkey. However, Erdoğan and his supporters believe that the 2017 constitutional amendments that changed the system of government has reset the agenda. Thus, the 2017 amendments offered Erdoğan a secret opportunity to join the presidential election race for a third, and even a fourth term.</p>2022-09-01T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2022 International Scientific Journal Visionhttps://visionjournal.edu.mk/social/index.php/1/article/view/117VOCABULARY LEARNING AND VOCABULARY LEARNING STRATEGIES 2022-12-09T12:09:22+01:00Arafat Useinarafat.husein@vizyon.edu.mk<p> Vocabulary learning is an important component in language learning and of critical importance to the typical language learner. It is a basic constituent of learning a language. If students lack vocabulary they will be unable to function in any particular communication. Also, the grammar or the structure of a language is also important. But if we wish to express ourselves effectively we need enough vocabulary. The more words we know, the better we understand what we read and listen to. Unfortunately, the importance of vocabulary teaching is being neglected by most of the language teachers. They assume that their students will learn words incidentally. It is thought that vocabulary expansion will happen through the practice of other language skills. Teachers need to be aware of and expand vocabulary teaching techniques. Furthermore, the language teacher needs to have a deep knowledge on Vocabulary Language Strategies, thus find systematic ways of helping learners in building vocabulary. This paper deals with some of the ways vocabulary is taught by pointing out the Vocabulary Learning, Learning Strategies and Vocabulary Learning Strategies.</p>2022-09-01T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2022 International Scientific Journal Visionhttps://visionjournal.edu.mk/social/index.php/1/article/view/118INTEGRATION OF JURAN'S TRILOGY, DEMING'S QUALITY CYCLE AND DMAIC METHODOLOGY IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF MANAGEMENT WITH QUALITY COST METHODOLOGY2022-12-09T12:18:42+01:00Cvetanka Velkoskacvetanka.velkoska@vizyon.edu.mk<p>This paper presents systematized approach to introducing and implementing a management system with quality costs, with a development of a management methodology using quality costs which, in a structured and systematic manner includes all relevant procedures (algorithms), with a view fully expressing the benefits and usefulness of the quality costs. The methodological approach includes the algorithm for introducing and implementing the management system with quality costs, the algorithm for the selection of a relevant quality costs approach and model, the quality costs identification and categorization algorithm, the quality costs measuring algorithm, as well as the quality costs management algorithm and the algorithm for management with quality costs. The scientific contribution of this paper involves the integration of the three known methodologies used in quality management: Juran's trilogy, Deming's quality cycle – PDCA, and the DMAIC methodology, in the development of the methodology for quality management with quality costs, aimed at improving the effectiveness of the management system with quality costs and the sustainability of the company.</p>2022-09-01T00:00:00+02:00Copyright (c) 2022 International Scientific Journal Vision
