Researchers have developed a computational model using BERTurk to analyze coping styles in Turkish-language tweets following the 2023 Turkiye earthquake. The model successfully identified three coping styles—problem-focused, emotion-focused, and meaning-making—achieving a macro F1 score of 0.693. Analysis of over one million tweets revealed distinct temporal patterns in coping mechanisms, with problem-focused coping prevalent in the immediate aftermath and meaning-making increasing over time. The study suggests that anger is strongly correlated with meaning-making, potentially serving as a catalyst for blame attribution. AI
