2023, 7(1), s:5-8

Rehabilitation includes the destruction of the behavioral patterns brought about by addiction and their replacement with new behavioral patterns, starting to establish relationships with other people in the environment in which they live and establishing new forms of relationships, and reorganizing family and environmental relations that have been disrupted during the period of substance use. Since alcohol and substance use disorder is a complex picture that causes many biopsychosocial problems, the treatment of individuals consists of medical treatment, psycho-social treatment and social rehabilitation programs. Social rehabilitation programs are very important in order to reintegrate individuals with alcohol and substance use disorders into society and to ensure their social functionality.

Sociology of Consumption: A Study on Technology Addiction

Aybüke Kaplan
2019, 3(1), s:31-41

Technological development and diversification of products offered to the consumer and make them attractive cause some problems. The main reason for these problems is the inability to control the product life. Uncontrolled use of technology leads to many behavioral addictions. Technology addiction, which is accepted as a sub-dimension in behavioral addiction, is a prominent problem in this process. It has been found that people’s increasing dependence on technology changes individuals identity and, moreover, their consumption preferences. In adolescence, more dominant individuals can express themselves while expressing materialist attitude. Therefore, it is thought that the way individuals express themselves in the community is indexed to the goods they consume. For example, the element that is the main determinant of many personal oriented preference perceptions, such as the preferred phone brand and the features of the computer, is focused on what the individual consumes or adopts.  In this article, the reason of the intense demand of individuals for the need created for media and communication tools and technological products is explained. In addition, technology dependence is examined from a sociological point of view in this context in which ostentatious consumption manifests itself today.
