Autobiographical memory may be constructed to reflect individual’s needs, goals, and motives at the time of encoding and retrieval (Conway &amp; Pleydell-Pearce, 2000). This memory may enable individuals to obtain information about the self by remembering previous experiences and to develop and maintain self-concept (Bluck et al., 2005; Brewer, 1986). Selfconcept, which is closely related to autobiographical memory, contains various information, such as age, gender, physical characteristics, goals, attitudes, beliefs, and values, including social roles (Borden &amp; Horowitz, 2008). By definition, social roles are norms that determine the behavior of an individual within certain contexts according to one’s social position (Hare, 2003; Sarbin &amp; Allen, 1968). An individual may play many social roles throughout life such as being a friend, student, employer, sibling, or parent. However, these roles may differ in terms of goals and the direction to which these goals direct an individual (Sheldon &amp; Elliot, 2000). As a part of the self, social roles determine the expected behavior of individuals in specific contexts according to social position (e.g., student and friend). For example, researchers find that the friendship role is inherently rewarding and associated with intrinsic motivation, while external rewards, such as grades and academic achievement, frequently motivate the student role (Sheldon &amp; Elliot, 2000). Given that social roles are associated with different goals and motivations, and autobiographical memory is recalled in line with such goals and motivations, this study expects that potential links exist between social roles and the recall of autobiographical memory.To the best of our knowledge, very few studies to date address the effects of social roles on autobiographical memory, and these studies mainly highlight memory themes (Nakash et al., 2001). Moreover, no research investigates whether or not and how social roles impact the retrieval of autobiographical memory. For this reason, the current study aims to explore the potential effects of social roles (i.e., being a student and a friend) on the contents, functions, phenomenological characteristics, and centrality of autobiographical memory.MethodData were collected using an online questionnaire. The participants were undergraduate students (n = 106; M(age) = 20.90, SD(age) = 3.33) who reported two memories related to thefriendship (friend memory) and studentship (student memory) roles, respectively. They then evaluated each memory in terms of function using the Thinking About Life Experiences scale,of phenomenological characteristics using the Autobiographical Memory Questionnaire, and of centrality to oneself and life using the Centrality of Events Scale. To control for the order effect, half of the participants were first assigned under the friend-role memory condition, while the other half were first assigned under the student-role memory condition. The study coded the contents of the memories by referring to the “Coding Guide for Self-Defining Events” by Thorne and McLean (2001). Thus, the study coded memory narrativesaccording to contents and categorized under the following themes: life-threatening events, recreation, relationships, achievement/mastery, and guilt/shame (Thorne &amp; McLean, 2001).ResultsThe results demonstrated that friend and student memories differed in terms of theme, function, and emotional valence. Relational themes were more frequent in the friend (71.7%) than in the student (4.7%; p &lt; .001) memories. However, achievement themes were more pronounced in the student (32%) than in the friend (9%; p &lt; .001) memories.Memories of friend and student roles also differed in function. The participants rated friend-role memories higher than they did the student-role memories in the self-related functions (t(105) = −2.40, p =.018, d = .23) as well as social functions (t(105) = −6.30, p = .000, d = .61), but they did not differ in terms of directive functions [t(105) = −.73, p =.46, d = .07].Regarding the phenomenological properties, the participants rated friend-role memories higher than they did student-role memories in positive emotions (t(105) = −2.50, p = .014, d = .28) and in the representation of the current self (t(105) = −4.50, p &lt;.001, d = .54). The study noted no other differences between the two types of memories regarding phenomenological characteristics (all p values &gt; .05).Moreover, the study found differences in the centrality of an event in life. The participants rated the friend-role memories higher than they did the student-role memories as a reference point for other events (t(105) = −2.03, p = .044, d = .20) and a perception of the event as a central component of personal identity (t(105) = −3.30, p = .001, d = .32). In addition, the study observed no difference between memory types in viewing the event as a turning point in one’s life story (p = .68).DiscussionThese findings demonstrate that the friend- and student-role memories differ from each other in terms of theme, emotional valence, function, and centrality to the self. Furthermore, these findings imply that the characteristics of autobiographical memory may differ according to the social roles that triggered the memory. One focus of this study is whether or not the context of a social role triggers a particular memory theme. If specific goals are associated with a social role, then the study expects that memories triggered within this role context will frequently contain themes in line with these goals. Sheldon and Elliot (2000) reveal that goals, such as establishing social relationships and having a pleasant time, intrinsically motivate the friendship role, while goals, such as academic achievement, extrinsically motivate the student role. In line with this finding, the majority of the friendshiprole memories revealed in the current study contain relational themes. In addition, the study observes success/failure themes more frequently in student-role memories compared with other themes. This theme is also noted more frequently in student- than friend-role memories. These findings highlight that the themes of memories may be a reflection of the goals and motivations that underlie different social roles.The findings also illustrate that friend-role memories carried more positive emotions than did student-role memories. The friend role, which is more intrinsically motivated (e.g., having pleasure), may have led the participants to memories with relational themes, while the student role, which is more extrinsically motivated (e.g., having high grades), may have directed the participants toward achievement themes. Given that intrinsic motivation is more related to positive emotions than extrinsic motivation (Ernst et al., 2018; Ryan &amp; Deci, 2000), the difference in the positive emotions of these memories may also be due to variances in motivations that underlies these two types of social roles.The evaluation of memories related to the friendship role as memories that fulfill functions related to the self may be a reflection of the contribution of friendship relationships in the self-formation and socialization processes of individuals to autobiographical memory. The shaping of the self and identity is a process that becomes evident from adolescence and continues throughout life. The relationships that come to the fore in this process include peers and friends instead of family members (Arnett, 2000). Empirical evidence widely supports and accepts the view that friendship relationships are highly effective in the construction of the self (e.g., McNamara Barry et al., 2014). In the current study, the fact that memories in the context of the friend role were mostly recalled to fulfill self-related functions, such as self-regulation and self-continuity, supports this view.Furthermore, the study observes that memories recalled in the context of the friend role served social functions, such as meeting new people, strengthening existing relationships, developing close and deep relationships, establishing social bonds, and creating empathy more than did student-role memories. In early adulthood, scholars posit that friendships fulfill individual and social needs (Zarbatany et al., 2004). Previous studies find that memories related to close relationships, such as romantic ones, serve strong social functions (Alea &amp; Bluck, 2007). Consistent with these findings, the current study reveals that memories related to friendship, which is another form of a close relationship, serve social functions.Finally, memories related to the role of friends lie at the center of the identity of an individual and are viewed as a reference point for various events in life. This finding may point to the long-term effects of experiences gained from friendship relationships.When interpreting the findings, considering certain limitations is important. One of them may be that the sample consists only of university students in their early adulthood and of predominantly female students. In the future, testing the variables by using different samples and by considering demographic variables, such as age and gender, may enrich the findings in this field. Another limitation may be the online collection of data. In this case, the participants may have continued without communicating with the researcher when question arise about the scale items. To minimize this possibility, the researchers conducted a pilot study prior to the actual data collection phase. With guidance from data and feedback obtained from the pilot study, the statements used in the questionnaires were presented to be as clear, precise, and understandable as possible.As part of the effort to elucidate memory processes by considering social and cultural contexts, this study examined autobiographical memories in the context of student and friend roles. In future studies, examining the effect of the association of social roles to different goals and motivations on the processes of remembering the past may help in enhancing the understanding of the relationship among social role, identity, and memory process.

Narrative competence plays a crucial role in the development of children’s linguistic and cognitive skills in many respects. Therefore, investigating children’s narrative skills provides enriched information in both domains. Narrative competence involves an integration of multiple systems of language as it requires the simultaneous planning of a meaningful content in terms of a coherent structure, a cohesive language use and a concern for the listeners’ informational needs (Johnston, 2008).&nbsp;Producing narratives requires a coherent organization of the events making up the story around a goal in a way that renders them meaningful in terms of the intentional states of the characters and to express them by use of complex syntactic structures and appropriate lexical items. (Berman &amp; Slobin, 1994; Johnston, 2008). Research on bilingual children’s narrative development is often limited to specific language-pairings (i.e. Spanish/English) and minority contexts where low-socioeconomic status (SES) is another variable playing a key role (Miller et al., 2006).&nbsp;The present study aimed to investigate the effects of L2 (L2: Second language, English) on L1 (L1: Mother tongue, Turkish) and language competence reflected in narratives, both in structural and linguistic aspects. To investigate these questions, narrative skills task was performed with monolingual and bilingual children utilizing the wordless Frog, Where are you? (Mayer, 1969).&nbsp;Method One hundred and twelve five- and seven-year-old monolingual (N = 61) and bilingual (N = 51) children participated in the study. Narrative skills were evaluated only for Turkish for monolingual children, whereas bilingual children were tested in English as well, the latter test taking place on a separate day. In order to assess vocabulary competence for L1 and L2 Türkçe İfade Edici ve Alıcı Dil Testi (TIFALDI, Kazak-Berument &amp; Güven, 2013) and Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test-4 (PPVT-4, Dunn &amp; Dunn, 2012) were administered. In order to assess executive functioning – working memory, the backward digit span task of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children- R (WISC-R, Wechsler, 1974) was used.ResultsNarratives were transcribed and narrative quality was evaluated using Pearson (2002) coding scheme. Narratives were coded on four dimensions: Frog story elements, which refers to the episodic components of the story, sequence, which refers to overall plotline of the story, perspective-and-affect, which refers to referencing and internal states, and engagement, which corresponds to effort for listener engagement (Pearson, 2002). For each dimension 2 (Age: 5-and 7-year-olds) x 2 (Language group: monolingual and bilingual) factorial ANOVAs were conducted. For frog story elements, monolinguals (M = 6.13, SD = 2.81) performed better than bilinguals (M = 4.25, SD = 2.91) for both age groups, F(1, 107) = 12.18, p &lt; .001, η p 2 = .10. For sequence, monolinguals (M = 7.73, SD = 2.59) again performed better than bilinguals (M = 5.35, SD = 2.36), F(1, 107) = 27.39, p &lt; .001, η p 2 = .20. For perspective and affect, monolinguals was a main effect of language group (F(1, 107) = 23.87, p &lt; .001, η p 2 = .18) as well as language and age interaction (F(1, 107) = 30.08, p &lt; .001, η p 2 = .02). Post-hoc t-test showed that five-year-old monolinguals and bilinguals did not differ in their performance, (t(51) = 0.36, p = .72), whereas seven-year-old monolinguals (M = 7.36, SD = 1.45) were better than bilinguals (M = 2.60, SD = 2.63), t(56) = 8.79, p &lt; .001. Finally, for engagement, monolinguals was a main effect of language group (F(1, 107) = 40.48, p &lt; .001, η p 2 = .27) as well as language and age interaction (F(1, 107) = 15.04, p &lt; .001, η p 2 = .12). Post-hoc t-tests indicate that there was no difference between five-year-old bilingals and monolinguals, t(51) = 1.78, p = .08. Seven-year-old monolinguals (M = 5.85, SD = 0.91) were better than bilinguals (M = 3.00, SD = 2.04), t(56) = 7.16, p &lt; .001. Monolingual children (M = .50, SD = .15) were better at incorporating more complex linguistic structures into their narratives compared to bilinguals (M = .36, SD = .19), F(1, 107) = 16.99, p &lt; .001 η p 2 = .14.&nbsp;&nbsp;DiscussionOverall, the present study made it possible to see the effects of early and intense L2 exposure on L1 by utilizing narratives elicited in both L1 and L2. Narratives of bilingual&nbsp;children have been studied more often in societies where L1 is not the dominant language (e.g., Akinci, Jisa, &amp; Kern, 2001; Kaufman, 2001; Kupersmitt &amp; Berman, 2001; Viberg, 2001), with a focus on the development of L2 and often with no data for L1 monolinguals that match the minority’s L1, with some exceptions (e.g., Verhoeven &amp; Boeschoten, 1986). In this respect the results of the current study are important as they provide information on bilingual narrative development in an L1 dominant, high-SES context. Findings raise questions regarding how early immersion schooling should start and how it should be designed to enhance both L1 and L2.

In current study, it was aimed to systematically review studies examining the effectiveness of forgiveness interventions for children and adolescents.Method This study was a systematic review. The literature review was conducted for 2010-2019 years, in the databases of Wiley Online Library, Taylor and Francis, Springer Link, Scopus, Science Direct, Sage Journals, EBSCOhost and TR Index, between November 2018 and March 2019. The terms of “forgiveness intervention”, “forgiveness group”, “forgiveness therapy”, “forgiveness education” and “forgiveness program” were used for the search. The following selection criteria were identified: (a) studies involving forgiveness group intervention for children and adolescents, (b) studies involving information about the content of intervention programs, (c) studies showing the effects of applied programs by using statistical data. The exclusion criteria were as follows: (a) studies not writing in Turkish or English, (b) studies with only an abstract, (c) studies not using group intervention, (d) review studies, and (e) descriptive studies. A total of 529 research articles were reached and 6 articles have been selected for inclusion within the scope of the study.Results In terms of research group and study design, obtained results are following: Park, et al. (2013) conducted the study with female adolescents (N = 48, Mage = 15.79). This study was based on 3 (pre-test, post-test, follow up test) x 3 (experimental, control, and placebo group) mixed design. Enright, et al. (2014) conducted the study with 8th grade students (N = 132, Mage = 13.48). This study was based on 3 (experimental group) x 2 (pre-test, post-test) mixed design. Taysi and Vural (2016) carried out their study with 4th grade students (N = 122, Mage = 10.00). Their study was based on 3 (pre-test, post-test, follow up test) x 2 (experimental and control group) mixed design. In the study of Vassilopoulos, et.al (2018), the participants were 6th grade students (N = 42, Mage = 11.14). This study was based on mixed design including qualitative and quantitative methods. Quantitative dimension was based on 2 (pre-test and post-test) x 2 (experimental and control group) mixed design. Freedman (2018) conducted the study with high school students (N = 21, Mage = 17.3). Research design was mixed design including qualitative and quantitative methods. Quantitative dimension was based on 2 (pre- and post-test) x 2 (experimental and control group) mixed design. Finally, Rahman, et al. (2018) conducted the study with female early adolescents (N = 8, age range: 11-12). Research design was 3 (pre-test, post-test, follow up test) x 2 (experimental and control group) mixed design.&nbsp;When the studies examined in terms of features of applied programs, following results were obtained. Park et al. (2013) applied “Forgiveness Program for Aggressive Victims”. Enright et al. (2014) applied a class guidance program based on process model. Program focuses importance of forgiveness, aims to gain forgiveness understanding and decrease anger. Taysi and Vural (2016) applied a class guidance program based on process model. Program is “Joyful Forgiveness” for 9-11 age children. Vassilopoulos et al. (2018) applied a class guidance program. Program includes recognition and expression of emotions, relations among emotions, thoughts and behaviors, value of love, forgiveness, developing an act plan for applying forgiveness. Freedman (2018) applied a small group guidance program based on process model. Program includes offence, anger, commitment to forgive, reframing, empathy, compassion and absorption of pain. Rahman et al. (2018) applied forgiveness therapy based on process model. The first 16 sessions were applied as individual therapy; the latter 16 sessions were applied as group therapy.&nbsp;When the studies examined in terms of results, following results were obtained. In the study of Park et al. (2013), after intervention forgiveness, empathy and grades increased, anger, hostile attribution, aggression and delinquency decreased in experimental group. In the study of Enright et al. (2014); after intervention, forgiveness, and willingness to forgive&nbsp;increased, and prejudice decreased in all groups. In the study of Taysi and Vural (2016), forgiveness and hope scores of experimental group increased at post-test. Anger scores of experimental group increased at follow up test. In the study of Vassilopoulos et al. (2018), at post-test, forgiveness and life satisfaction increased, anger decreased in favor of experimental group. In the study of Freedman (2018), a significant difference in favor of experimental group was found in terms of forgiveness, anxiety, depression and hope; however, there wasn’t significant difference between groups in terms of self-esteem. In the study of Rahman et al. (2018), after intervention, forgiveness increased and anger decreased in experimental group.&nbsp;Discussion According to obtained results, forgiveness group interventions for children and adolescents are effective on enhancing of information and skills about forgiveness and development of positive attitudes towards forgiveness. Besides, forgiveness interventions help children and adolescents to cope anger, to decrease depression and to increase hope, and so positively affect mental health.

In recent years, different methods for controlling the emotional effects caused by the demands in work place began to attract attention. The job demands-resources model is a functional model for assessing the well-being of the employee (Demerouti &amp; Bakker, 2011). Schaufeli and Bakker (2004), pointed out that it should be more effective to decrease the job demands rather than to increase job resources. From this point of view, it is considered that it is important to prevent a negative job-related affective well-being perception in order to enhance the factors related to quality of work life. Humor is an important phenomenon that can have a positive effect on the individual’s perception of well-being. It may decrease the negative job-related affective well-being perception. Based on this idea, this study aims to investigate the moderating role of occupational humorous coping on the relationship between job demands and a negative perception job-related affective wellbeing.MethodThe sample of this research constitutes 319 employees from various cities of Turkey working in the education and health sectors. For measuring job demands, a scale (Xanthopoulou, Bakker, Demerouti, &amp; Schaufeli, 2007) with four sub-scales including workload (4 items), emotional demands (6 items), emotional dissonance (5 items) and organizational changes (7 items); for measuring the negative job-related affective wellbeing perception, 10 items measuring negative job-related affective well-being perception of the Job-related Affective Well-being Scale (Van Katwyk, Fox, Spector, &amp; Kelloway, 2000) and for measuring occupational humorous coping, the Occupational Humorous Coping Scale (23 items), which was developed by Doosje, De Goede, Van Doornen and Goldstein (2010), was used.Results For testing the hypotheses, hierarchical regression and simple slope analyses were conducted. According to the hierarchical regression results, in the first model, job demands have a positive effect on the negative job-related affective well-being perception (B = 0.45, SH = 0.06; R2 = .19, p &lt; .001). In the second model, when occupational humorous coping was added to the equation, the explanatory strength of the model increased (ΔR2 = .18, p &lt; .001) and it was revealed that occupational humorous coping has a negative effect on the negative job-related affective well-being perception (B = -0.44, SH = 0.05). In the third model, the interaction of job demands and occupational humorous coping has an effect (B = -0.15, SH = 0.05) on the negative job-related affective well-being perception (ΔR2 = .02, p &lt; .001). Occupational humorous coping has a moderating effect on the relationship between job demands and the negative job-related affective well-being perception. Thereafter, simple slope analysis and a test for difference in simple slopes revealed that high occupational humorous coping weakens the positive relationship between job demands and the negative job-related affective well-being perception (for high occupational humorous coping: b = .24, t = 3.816, p &lt; .001; for low occupational humorous coping: b = .41, t = 9.171, p &lt; .001; for difference in simple slopes t(604) = 2.096, p &lt; .05). According to this, as the occupational humorous coping tendency increases, the positive relationship between job demands and the negative job-related affective well-being perception decreases.&nbsp;DiscussionThe results of this study showed that employees who have a low ability of occupational humorous coping are at a disadvantage when compared to employees who have a high ability of occupational humorous coping in the context of a negative job-related affective well-being perception against job demands. According to this, it can be said that the occupational humorous coping skills are not only important for the health of employees, but also important for responding to job demands. People are more sensitive to negative stimuli than to positive stimuli (Garcia, Rosenberg, Erlandsson, &amp; Siddiqui, 2010), and the increase in negative feelings in the workplace lead to increasing counterproductive behavior (Fox, Spector, &amp; Miles, 2001). In this context, this study examined the negative jobrelated affective well-being perception. Turkey is a high power distance country (Kabasakal &amp; Dastmalchian, 2001), which means that the status differences in organizations are important. It is thought that high power distance can be a restrictive factor for using humor in the workplace. From this point of view, there can be a greater need for an encouraging organizational climate. The negative and positive affective well-being perceptions can be examined separately. The decrease in negative affective well-being perception does not mean an increase in positive affective well-being perception. Therefore, in future studies, it will be useful to examine the positive job-related affective well-being perception in relation to job demands and also the effects of occupational humorous coping in the context of these relationships.
