    When the Human Firewall Fails: Techno-Strain as the Hidden Link Between Technostress and Information Security Policy Violations

    Demirbağ, Orkun; Kaymak, Halil İbrahim; Alan, Hale; Akdeniz, Ferhan

    In today’s dynamic business environment, organizations are increasingly investing in strategies to protect themselves against information system violations. While these technologies offer remarkable benefits—boosting efficiency, productivity, and overall performance—they also bring significant risks, particularly regarding information security breaches. This study delves into the critical connections between technostress, techno-strain, and the violation of information security policies. Our research aims to shed light on how technostress, which is commonly experienced by engineers working in technology-intensive environments within the IT sector, drives information security violations. Importantly, we will also explore how techno-strain mediates this relationship. By focusing on engineers who are consistently engaged with advanced technology, we seek to answer essential questions about their experiences. It is worth noting that the requirements for information security technology can widely vary based on factors such as industry type, organizational structure, departmental roles, and cultural norms. Therefore, this study examines how technostress increases the likelihood of information security policy violations and how techno-strain mediates this relationship. Looking ahead, future research should consider both the broader institutional contexts and the individual characteristics that may shape the relationship between information security violations and technostress. Furthermore, understanding the repercussions of information security violations—stemming from technostress—on a company’s financial health is vital for organizations aiming to safeguard their assets and maintain a competitive edge. Emphasizing these insights can lead to more effective strategies for managing both technology and talent in the workplace.

    [Policing the Postcolonial Family: Rethinking Hanif Kureishi’s “My Son the Fanatic” through F. Fanon and D. Bigo]

    Yalçın, Elif Güvendi

    [Abstract] This article offers a critical re-evaluation of Hanif Kureishi’s short story “My Son the Fanatic” at the intersection of Frantz Fanon’s postcolonial psychoanalysis and Didier Bigo’s security studies. Moving beyond conventional readings that center generational conflict, religious radicalism, or immigrant assimilation, the study foregrounds surveillance as a constitutive force shaping postcolonial subjectivity within diasporic family dynamics. It is argued that Kureishi’s narrative dramatizes the internalization of state logics of suspicion and control, whereby the immigrant father, Parvez, becomes both the subject and the agent of a dispersed surveillance apparatus. Drawing on Bigo’s concept of the ban-opticon and its emphasis on anticipatory governance and affective regulation, the article examines how fear of deviance displaces paternal care with a mode of domestic policing. Simultaneously, Fanon’s notion of epidermalization elucidates how the colonized subject internalizes visibility as a site of control, resulting in a fractured self constantly navigating racialized gazes and cultural expectations.

    Validation of the Turkish Fear of War Scale (FOWARS): Psychometric Evidence and Associations with Tolerance of Uncontrollability, Psychological Symptoms, and Personality Traits

    Kaya, Feridun; Türkkan, Tuğba

    Growing geopolitical instability has led to increasing concerns about the psychological impact of war beyond directly affected populations, highlighting the need for culturally appropriate instruments to assess fear of war. In this study, we evaluate the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Fear of War Scale (FOWARS) and examine its associations with sociodemographic characteristics and personality traits. A total of 643 adults across two independent samples (sample 1 = 360; sample 2 = 283) completed the FOWARS, the Tolerance of Uncontrollability Questionnaire, the Next Big Five Inventory (BFI-2), the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21), and a sociodemographic information form. Confirmatory factor analysis supported the original two-factor structure of the FOWARS, with the Turkish version demonstrating satisfactory structural validity, convergent validity, discriminant validity, criterion-related validity, strong internal consistency, and measurement invariance across gender. Fear of war was negatively associated with tolerance of uncontrollability and positively associated with depression, anxiety, and stress. In addition, fear of war was significantly associated with gender, socioeconomic status, agreeableness, neuroticism, and conscientiousness. These findings expand the understanding of the individual determinants of fear of war, underscoring the importance of developing targeted interventions for vulnerable populations.

    Exposure to Violence and Therapeutic Communication in Nursing Students

    Erol, Ahmet; Tuncer, Metin

    Background: – Workplace violence negatively affects the professional development of nursing students. Objectives: – To investigate nursing students’ exposure to violence, violence-management competence, and therapeutic communication during clinical practice. Methods: – A descriptive, cross-sectional, correlational study involves 530 nursing students. Data were collected between September 2024 and February 2025 using a Sociodemographic Form, the Workplace Violence Competence Scale, and the Therapeutic Communication Skills Scale. Results: – Violence was reported by 32.8% of students, mainly verbal (60.9%) and psychological (47.1%), often by patients or relatives. Communication skills correlated positively with violence management competence, explaining 18.1% of the variance. Higher self-confidence, problem-solving, voluntary choice of profession, and prior education were associated with better outcomes. Conclusions: – Nursing students are at substantial risk of violence during clinical practice, and their ability to manage it is enhanced by therapeutic communication and supportive factors, underscoring the need to strengthen curricula and faculty preparation.

    Children's voices in disaster recovery: Lessons from the 2023 Turkey-Syria earthquake

    Yildiz, Ayse; Simsek, Nurcan; Boluk, Aysegul

    Disasters have a devastating impact on populations, with children being one of the most at-risk groups. Although their vulnerability in disasters is widely recognised, children's own voices are still largely missing from disaster recovery research and planning. This study aims to address that gap by listening directly to the experiences and perspectives of children aged 11 to 14 in Nurdağı, Gaziantep, one of the hardest-hit areas in Türkiye, on disaster relief and recovery. Using a qualitative, child-centred approach, grounded in a socio-ecological, rights-based framework, we conducted interviews with 58 children, alongside 47 additional interviews with parents, teachers, and first responders, to understand how young people coped with life after the earthquake, what challenges they faced, and what they believe would support recovery. The findings show that children struggled with difficult living conditions, trauma, disrupted education, and changing social relationships, but they also demonstrated remarkable insight, emotional intelligence, and a desire to be involved in rebuilding their communities. Many children questioned the fairness of aid distribution and called for more attention to mental health and safer schools. Rather than portraying children as passive victims, the study highlights their capacity to reflect, adapt, and contribute. It calls for more inclusive, responsive recovery strategies that treat children as active participants in disaster planning and post-disaster rebuilding. The study offers actionable recommendations for policymakers, educators, and humanitarian practitioners to better integrate children's perspectives into long-term recovery planning and resilience-building initiatives.

    Does Training Make a Difference? Evaluating a Targeted Child Abuse and Neglect Education Program on Teachers’ Awareness

    Türkkan, Tuğba; Odacı, Hatice

    This study examined the effect of a psycho-education program on the awareness levels of teachers regarding child abuse and neglect. The study was conducted with teachers working in regions characterized by the presence of at-risk groups. Within the scope of the study, 18 teachers were assigned to the experimental group and 18 teachers to the control group. The experimental group participated in a structured psycho-education program on child abuse and neglect, while no intervention was implemented for the control group. Prior to the intervention, pre-test measurements were conducted using the Child Abuse Awareness Scale for both groups. The psycho-education program consisted of 10 weekly online sessions, each lasting approximately 100–120 min. The findings revealed a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test scores of the experimental group compared with the control group, indicating the effectiveness of the psycho-education program in increasing teachers’ awareness levels. The results suggest that such training programs may play an important role in enhancing teachers’ knowledge and awareness of child abuse and neglect, particularly in recognizing signs of abuse and understanding reporting procedures.

    Towards Sustainable Environment in OECD Nations: The Moderator Role of Renewable Energy in Uncovering the Hidden Link Between Military Expenditure and Ecological Footprint

    Ayaydın, Hasan; Ergün, Tolga; Ergün, Hilal Ok; Barut, Abdulkadir; Pilatin, Abdulmuttalip

    This study examines the relationships among military spending, renewable energy (RNW), globalisation, economic growth, and ecological footprint in 35 OECD member countries, using data covering 1990–2022. Specifically, this study contributes to this discussion by presenting empirical evidence on the link between military expenditure and ecological footprint, while accounting for the moderating role of RNW in OECD countries. The analysis utilised Kao, Pedroni, and Westerlund cointegration tests, Driscoll-Kraay robust standard error tests, Dumitrescu-Hurlin causality tests, and FMOLS and DOLS techniques for robustness verification. Empirical results show that military spending in OECD countries increases the ecological footprint, leading to environmental degradation. Furthermore, the combined effect of military expenditure and RNW reduces the ecological footprint and contributes to environmental sustainability. The results contribute to the existing literature by underlining the role RNW plays in reducing the ecological footprint of military expenditures and by offering policy recommendations for environmental sustainability. From a managerial and policy perspective, the findings suggest that defense-related institutions and policymakers should integrate environmental sustainability criteria into military planning and procurement strategies. Increasing the use of renewable energy in military infrastructure, logistics, and defense technologies may significantly reduce the ecological footprint associated with military expenditure. Therefore, the transition toward renewable energy supported defense systems can serve as a strategic tool for aligning national security objectives with sustainable development goals.

    The Influence of the Anglo-American Alliance on Shaping Iranian Foreign Policy

    Topal, Coşkun; Bülbül, Berke; Maden, Nafiz

    Since the 19thcentury, Britishoilinterests and geopoliticalbalancing against Russia positionedIran as a criticalbuffer zone. The Anglo-American-backed1953Operation Ajax generateda traumatic collective memory that formedthe ideological foundation of Iranian foreign policy after the 1979 Revolution. In the post-revolutionary era, Tehran transitioned into a security-oriented state, adopting severe anti-imperialist rhetoric against US and UK. Confronting US economic sanctions, “rogue state” labeling, andnuclearcounter-pressures, Iranbuiltasymmetricresistancemechanisms through the “Shia Crescent” and regional proxy networks. Meanwhile, diplomatic crises with UK, such as the Salman Rushdie affair, further hardened this defensive stance. This study examines how Iran transforms Anglo-American threat perceptions into a source of regime legitimacy and strategic autonomy.

    Beyond reactive displacement: anticipatory mobility, climate governance, and the climate passport

    Limon, Onur; Gürdal Limon, Elif

    This article examines how existing mobility governance frameworks can be re-theorized to better align with the temporal dynamics of climate risk and the conditions shaping mobility decision-making. The analysis demonstrates that current mobility regimes systematically privilege discretionary, event-based protection while offering limited legal predictability or rights-based recognition for anticipatory and incremental mobility. Building on this analysis, the article develops the Climate Passport as a diagnostic framework rather than an operational policy instrument. The framework specifies three governance criteria that any adequate anticipatory mobility regime would need to satisfy: early recognition of climate risk before displacement becomes unavoidable, rights-based and legally predictable status for those facing slow-onset environmental harm, and institutional coherence across the currently fragmented domains of migration, refugee protection, and climate adaptation governance. Informed by the historical Nansen Passport and grounded in human rights and climate justice scholarship, the framework offers a systematic lens for examining how institutional architectures structure the timing, legitimacy, and accessibility of mobility under climate change. By reframing climate-related mobility as a structurally embedded component of adaptation rather than an exceptional failure of in situ resilience, the article contributes to interdisciplinary debates on migration, adaptation, and global justice.

    Privacy, Fairness, and Model Risk Governance in Sustainable People Analytics

    Şimşek, Tuğçe; Şimşek, Ahmet Bahadır

    Whilst sustainability targets are driving organisations to make more intensive use of human data, this trend is transforming HR analytics from a reporting tool into a component of decision-making architecture. This transformation is expanding the scope of data collection, increasing the visibility of employees, and intertwining privacy, fairness, perceptions of surveillance, and model risk within the same process. This study addresses the question of how this interplay can be managed at the project level. A literature review has been combined with an analysis of publicly available corporate documents, from which a compact toolkit for sustainable HR analytics has been derived. The toolkit is structured around defining project boundaries, documenting data and model assumptions, matching risks with controls, and ensuring transparency and human oversight. In this way, the chapter provides a practical framework that ensures analytical capacity is considered alongside organisational legitimacy and employee trust.

    Digital cultivation of violence: a mixed-methods analysis of content and sentiment in YouTube comments on popular Turkish TV series

    Olgun, Oğuzhan; Demirel, Çağatay; Demirel, Uğur

    This study examines the contemporary manifestations of George Gerbner’s Cultivation Theory within the Turkish media landscape by analyzing the relationship between televised representations of violence and digital audience reception. Adopting a mixed-methods research design, the study first conducts a structured qualitative content analysis of 15 selected episodes from three popular Turkish TV series (Camdaki Kız, Sadakatsiz, and Son Yaz) to categorize and quantify various forms of violence. Subsequently, a large-scale computational emotion analysis is performed on 74,478 YouTube comments associated with these episodes using two transformer-based Turkish language models (KUBI and TREMO). The content analysis findings reveal a high prevalence of emotional and psychological violence (61.3%) across all series, followed by physical violence (29.9%), suggesting that mediated harm is increasingly represented through relational and verbal conflict. The computational analysis suggests that these narrative patterns are associated with a high-arousal and largely negative emotional environment in audience discourse, especially around anger and sadness. Notably, while traditional cultivation research emphasizes fear as a primary outcome (Mean World Syndrome), this study finds that digital reception is characterized more by outward-facing anger and moral disgust than by internalized apprehension. The results are consistent with the interpretation that the “seeds” of television cultivation continue to circulate within networked media ecologies, where televised conflict is publicly interpreted and emotionally negotiated through collective digital interaction. By bridging the gap between screen reality and platformed discourse, the research provides a comprehensive framework for understanding the long-term affective impact of Turkish television narratives in the digital age.

    From underground economy to surface tensions: Stakeholders’ perspectives on mine closures in Gümüşhane

    Pınarbaşı, Işıl Esra; Demirbağ, Orkun; Örs, Şerife

    Mine closures are not merely the end of an economic cycle but complex processes that produce long-term social, environmental, and psychosocial consequences. Despite the growing recognition of the importance of Social Impact Assessment (SIA), studies often underemphasize the closure phase and its social repercussions. This study investigates those social impacts in Gümüşhane, Türkiye, a historically mining-dependent region, through the lens of stakeholder theory and a qualitative fieldwork approach. Drawing on in-depth interviews with 21 participants including mine workers, company representatives, public officials, NGOs, media, and local community members, the study identifies significant transformations in six domains: economy, employment and education, land use, demographics, environment and health, and human rights. Findings reveal that mine closures led to income loss, unemployment, migration, weakening of social cohesion, environmental degradation, and violations of labor and participation rights. The exclusion of local stakeholders from closure planning exacerbated distrust and social fragmentation. Providing a nuanced understanding of the social dynamics surrounding mine closure, study contributes to the growing literature calling for more inclusive, just, and sustainable closure processes, and emphasizes the urgency of incorporating SIA as a mandatory and comprehensive practice including not only the opening but also the closure and post-closure stages of mining.

    Institutional Determinants of Regional Poverty in Turkey: Evidence from Advanced Causality Analysis

    Çiçen, Yıldırım Beyazıt

    Poverty continues to be one of the major issues in Turkey, as in many other countries, with a large portion of the population – especially in rural areas – living below the poverty line. Those living in poverty have limited access to key public services such as education, healthcare and housing, which consequently exacerbates social and economic inequalities within society. The gap between wealthy and impoverished groups within society is continually expanding, primarily due to institutional factors that perpetuate this inequality. Drawing on data from 2009 to 2019, this study offers an empirical analysis of the role of institutions in shaping poverty in Turkey. The study applies the panel causality test developed by Juodis et al. (2021) to assess the influence of institutional structures on regional disparities. Infant mortality rates, the number of associate and bachelor’s degree graduates and the number of convicts are considered key indicators of institutional performance. The statistical analysis reveals a significant correlation between these variables and the 50% poverty rate. The findings suggest that strengthening the institutional framework is essential for addressing regional poverty in Turkey.

    Arctic governance through discourse: Arctic and Arctic council observer states

    Limon, Onur; Gürdal Limon, Elif

    This article examines how Arctic governance is discursively constituted through national Arctic policy and strategy documents and how these discursive constructions differentiate governance roles between Arctic states and Arctic Council observer states. Rather than treating national strategies as neutral policy instruments, the study conceptualizes them as political texts that articulate authority, responsibility, and legitimacy within an asymmetrical governance system. Methodologically, the article employs qualitative discourse analysis of the most recent official Arctic strategies of eight Arctic states and twelve observer states. Using MAXQDA (version 24), the analysis is organized around six thematic domains: security policy; climate change and environment; international cooperation; resource management; Indigenous peoples and rights; and economic development and sustainability. The findings reveal a high degree of discursive convergence across both actor groups, particularly around climate change, sustainability, environmental protection, and cooperation. However, this convergence does not indicate substantive policy alignment or egalitarian governance. Arctic states frame governance through narratives of sovereignty, stewardship, and regulatory responsibility, while observer states construct legitimacy through scientific contribution, multilateralism, and normative alignment. The article argues that discursive convergence can function as a kind of governance infrastructure that enables participation while tending to stabilize asymmetrical authority.

    Polar science diplomacy of Türkiye: the Second International Polar Year case

    Limon, Onur; Gurdal Limon, Elif; Caymaz, Ebru; Demirayak, Ozgur; Dal, Adnan; Özsoy, Burcu

    This article examines T & uuml;rkiye's participation in the Second International Polar Year (IPY-II, 1932-1933) as a historically grounded and underexplored case of early science diplomacy. IPY-II coordinated interdisciplinary polar research across forty-four countries, and T & uuml;rkiye's involvement during the early Republican period offers fresh insight into interwar scientific cooperation. The article documents T & uuml;rkiye's scientific and institutional contributions and analyses them through the reciprocal framework of science impacting diplomacy and diplomacy impacting science. Drawing on archival documents, official correspondence, parliamentary records, and contemporary newspapers, supplemented by expert interviews, it assesses the case against an explicit definition of science diplomacy. T & uuml;rkiye's meteorological data, later incorporated into the synoptic weather maps of the Northern Hemisphere, were scientifically significant, institutionally coordinated, and internationally recognised, yet shaped by asymmetrical hierarchies. The case enriches the historical understanding of science diplomacy by non-hegemonic states.

    Instagram’da Bireysel Direniş Taktikleri: Filistin Yanlısı Paylaşımlar Üzerinden Nitel İçerik Analizi

    Okur, Hatice Duran

    Sosyal medya platformlarının bireyin gündelik hayatına her geçen gün daha fazla nüfuz etmesi, bu mecraların algoritmik denetim mekanizmalarıyla bireyler üzerinde çeşitli etkilere sahip olması, onun bir “güç”, “otorite” olarak değerlendirilmesine neden olmuştur. Sosyal medya platformlarının algoritma düzeni karşısında kullanıcılarının konumu nedir? Bu güç karşısında kullanıcılarının direniş pratikleri nelerdir? Çalışma bu soruların cevabını, gündelik hayat içinde otoritenin karşısında duran, sıradan bireyin yaratıcı pratiklerine odaklanan Michel de Certeau’nun kavramlarından yola çıkarak, Instagram kullanıcılarının algoritmalara karşı geliştirdikleri yaratıcı taktiklerini, Instagram’da Filistin’i destekleyen içerikler üzerinden anlama ve taktiklerin bir repertuvarını oluşturma amacını taşımaktadır. Nitel araştırmayla desenlenen çalışmada veriler 18-24 Temmuz 2024 tarihlerinde Instagram’da herkese açık paylaşım yapan 20 hesabın hikâye paylaşımlarından elde edilmiştir. Veriler nitel içerik analiziyle, tümevarımsal ve tümdengelimsel metodların birlikte kullanılmasıyla çözümlenmiştir. Instagram’ın Filistin yanlısı içeriklere uyguladığı algoritmik denetleme stratejilerine karşı kullanıcıların “içeriği güçlendirme”, “algoritmadan saklanma” ve “algoritmayı ele geçirme” gibi bireysel direniş taktiklerinin olduğu görülmüştür. Sonuç olarak sanal alan günümüzde bireye özgürlük alanı olarak sunulsa da otoritenin denetim ve gözetim mekanizmalarını farklı boyutlara taşımakla birlikte, diğer yandan bireyin de otoriteye direnişini farklılaştırmaktadır.

    İnsansız deniz araçları çağı: rusya-ukrayna savaşı’ndan alınan dersler kapsamında bir değerlendirme

    Özgen, Cenk; Tutak, Eda

    Yüksek teknolojili sistemlerin gelişmesiyle birlikte modern hayatın her alanında yaşanan dönüşüm savunma ve güvenlik alanında da kendini göstermiş, insansız platformların aktif biçimde kullanımı askerî düzlemde yeni bir dönemin kapılarını aralamıştır. İnsansız deniz araçları, bu dönüşümün önemli bir parçasını ve deniz harbinin geleceği açısından bir kırılma noktasını oluşturmaktadır. İleri teknolojinin çarpıcı çıktılarından biri olan insansız deniz araçları, devletlere denizlerde daha özerk ve risksiz hareket etme olanağı sağlarken, bir kuvvet çarpanı olarak deniz harekâtının taktik ve operatif seviyedeki icrasında önemli avantajlar da sunmaktadır. Rusya-Ukrayna Savaşı ise insansız deniz araçlarının devletlere sunduğu imkânların açıkça sahnelendiği ve bu araçların yoğun biçimde kullanıldığı ilk devletlerarası çatışma olarak tarihe geçmiştir. Bu çalışmanın amacı Rusya-Ukrayna Savaşı’ndan yansıyan verileri dikkate alarak modern deniz harbinin yeni oyuncuları olarak görülen insansız deniz araçlarını incelemektir. Bu amaç kapsamında çalışmada öncelikle teknolojik gelişmelerin deniz harekât ortamına etkileri üzerinde durulmuş ve ardından insansız deniz araçları farklı boyutlarıyla ele alınmıştır. Daha sonra insansız deniz araçlarının kullanım konseptleri Rusya-Ukrayna Savaşı özelinde değerlendirilmiş ve Ukrayna’nın bu kapsamdaki uygulamalarına yer verilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonucunda, insansız deniz araçlarının deniz harbinin geleceğini etkileyen asli muharebe unsurları arasında yer aldığı ve dünya donanmalarındaki sayısının hızla artacağı vurgulanmaktadır

    Filistin-İsrail savaşı, on yıllardır devam eden, karmaşık ve çok boyutlu bir sorundur. 7 Ekim 2023’te yeniden alevlenen şiddet olayları, dünya genelinde büyük yankı uyandırmıştır. Bu çalışmada, savaşın ilk beş gününde manşet ve alt başlıklarda Filistin-İsrail savaşına dair hangi çerçevelerin kullanıldığı ve bu çerçevelerin gazetelerin yayın politikalarıyla nasıl ilişkili olduğu incelenmiştir. Bu bağlamda ABD, İngiltere, Türkiye ve Almanya'da yayın yapan The New York Times, The Guardian, Hürriyet ve Taz gazetelerinin bu döneme ait erişilebilen sayıları analiz edilmiştir. Analiz sonucunda, Türkiye’yi temsil eden Hürriyet gazetesinin savaşın ilk günlerinde tarafsızlığı pekiştiren çerçeveler kullandığı tespit edilmiştir. Buna karşılık, The New York Times, The Guardian ve Taz gazetelerinin manşet ve alt başlıklarında genellikle İsrail’i destekleyen çerçeveler kullandığı gözlemlenmiştir. Genel anlamda, Hürriyet ve diğer örneklem dâhilindeki gazetelerin, gazetecilik ilkeleri çerçevesinde haberleri tam anlamıyla tarafsız ve nesnel bir şekilde sunmadıkları ortaya çıkmıştır.
