    Predicted current and future distribution of the fire salamander, Salamandra infraimmaculata in Turkey

    Kurnaz, Muammer

    Although the fire salamander, Salamandra infraimmaculata, is relatively distributed in a broad area in the Middle East, it lives in a narrow area in southeast and south Anatolia in Turkey. The habitats of the species have been downgraded day by day, and its IUCN category is listed as "NT, and the population trend is decreasing. Within the scope of this study, a model was created with the existing locality records of the species using ecological niche modeling. As a result of this model, the current and future distribution of the species were compared. The results obtained from the analyzes made within the scope of this study showed that the current probable distribution of the species coincides with the existing locality records. However, for possible climate change scenarios, the possible future distribution of the species will be thought to be negatively affected by the increase in the greenhouse gas effect, the change in the amount of carbon dioxide, and the increase of many harmful gas concentrations in the atmosphere. If all four climate scenarios proposed in this study in the future occur sequentially, the species will have to limit or change its range, and even become will be extinct in some areas. Species conservation action plans should be initiated, and local governments should take necessary measures to prevent this from happening.

    Revisiting Slotted ALOHA: Density Adaptation in FANETs

    Eroğlu, Alperen; Onur, Ertan

    Unmanned aerial vehicles have been widely used in many areas of life. They communicate with each other or infrastructure to provide ubiquitous coverage or assist cellular and sensor networks. They construct flying ad hoc networks. One of the most significant problems in such networks is communication among them over a shared medium. Using random channel access techniques is a useful solution. Another important problem is that the variations in the density of these networks impact the quality of service and introduce many challenges. This paper presents a novel density-aware technique for flying ad hoc networks. We propose Density-aware Slotted ALOHA Protocol that utilizes slotted ALOHA with a dynamic random access probability determined using network density in a distributed fashion. Compared to the literature, this paper concentrates on proposing a three-dimensional, easily traceable model and stabilize the channel utilization performance of slotted ALOHA with an optimized channel access probability to its maximum theoretical level, 1/e, where e is the Euler’s number. Monte-Carlo simulation results validate the proposed approach leveraging aggregate interference density estimator under the simple path-loss model. We compare our protocol with two existing protocols, which are Slotted ALOHA and Stabilized Slotted ALOHA. Comparison results show that the proposed protocol has 36.78% channel utilization performance; on the other hand, the other protocols have 24.74% and 30.32% channel utilization performances, respectively. Considering the stable results and accuracy, this model is practicable in highly dynamic networks even if the network is sparse or dense under higher mobility and reasonable non-uniform deployments.

    The Effects of Income, Occupation and Education on Household Cigarette Consumption in Turkey; [Türkiye’de Gelir, Meslek ve Eğitimin Hanehalkı Sigara Tüketimi Üzerindeki Etkisi]

    Yilmaz-Uğur, Candan; Saruç, Naci Tolga

    This study aims to determine the variables affecting the cigarette consumption of households by employing logistic regression analysis based on the data of the Turkish Statistical Institute (TUIK) 2017 Household Budget Survey (HBA). In this model, the variables that affect cigarette consumption, namely, gender, age, education level, marital status, occupation, and the total disposable income earned by the household head in a year, are used. The results of this study indicate that variables of income, occupation and education of the household head affect cigarette consumption in Turkey. In this context, it is expected that focusing on young people, low educated and income groups in the fight against smoking will increase the success of the policies implemented.

    Pursuing Legal Harmony: Indonesianization of Islamic Law Concept and Its Impact on National Law

    Karimullah, Suud Sarim

    This study responds to a polemic on Indonesia’s formalization of Islamic law, which is inseparable from the dynamics of political authority and the internal views of Muslims. It seeks to describe, explore, construct, and analyze the Indonesianization of Islamic law, as proposed by Kamsi, an Islamic law professor at Sunan Kalijaga State Islamic University of Yogyakarta, as one of the efforts to make Islamic law become the national law. The Indonesianization of Islamic law, namely by legislating or codifying Islamic law through the state system so that it is enforceable in Indonesia. This study is conceptual research using a legal philosophy approach to comprehend an Islamic legal thought from a sharia scholar using the content analysis method. The results of this study show that the concept of Indonesianisation of Islamic Law uses a modern knowledge system as the paradigm. This effort seeks to nationally legalize Islamic law through Indonesian legal instruments that can give birth to inclusiveness and tolerance coupled with pluralism with differentiation in unification. Its theoretical implication emphasizes a need for epistemological and axiological adjustments to realize the concept of Indonesianization of Islamic law. The idea should also apply nationally within the framework of Pancasila (the Indonesian state’s ideology) as a democratic country.

    Investigation of Factors That May Affect the Commitment of Healthcare Professionals to Their Works During the COVID-19 Pandemic Period

    Akyüz, Ahmet Mutlu; Durmuş, İbrahim

    The environment of uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic period has caused difficulties especially for healthcare professionals in their work activities. The purpose of this research is to find out which variables might affect the commitment of healthcare professionals to their works during this COVID-19 period. Based on the data announced by the Ministry of Health during the pandemic in the first quarter of 2021, it was decided to conduct a research on doctors, nurses, caregivers, and medical secretaries working in hospitals in the cities of the Eastern Black Sea Region of Turkey which generally show high risk. In the developed research model, satisfactory conditions (SC), emotional commitment to change (ECC), and psychological ownership (PO) as variables that may directly or indirectly affect the commitment of healthcare professionals to their works (CW) were used. The Smart PLS program was used in the analysis of the research model and hypothesis. It was seen that the ECC of healthcare professionals has a positive and significant (.694; p <.000) effect on SC. It was understood that the PO of healthcare professionals has positive and significant effects on their CW (.394; p <.000). It was also observed that the presence of SC has positive and significant effects on the PO of the healthcare professionals in the current situation (.796; p <.000). It was observed that only the effect of ECC of healthcare professionals on their CW is insignificant (.097; p >.086). Looking at the indirect (intermediary) effects obtained as a result of the research, it was seen that all of the hypotheses consist of positive coefficients. This situation reveals that the mediating variables have complementary effects on the obtained results.

    Would You like to Work More Hours?—An Investigation on South Africa

    Popescu, Cristina Raluca Gh.; Karapınar Kocağ, Esra

    To begin with, Sustainable Development Goals are of tremendous importance in all areas, being seen as vital aims in all domains, which makes them indispensable when it comes to addressing the particularities of the labour market these days. Subsequently, human resources occupy a distinctive and unique position when referring to the implications derived from targeting Sustainable Development Goals, especially in the context represented by the period specific to the COVID-19 pandemic and the international events that followed immediately after that. This study investigates the work motivation of individuals, and whether they would be willing to work more hours if they are paid. Motivation and attitudes towards working more hours might be affected by several factors, and they are important contributors to business performance. Not only business performance is to be affected, but this is also a part of Sustainable Development Goals where labour market conditions and productivity concerns are addressed, along with several other factors. Using the Quarterly Labour Force Survey from 2017 to 2022 that is conducted by Statistics South Africa, this study attempts to shed light on individual preferences for working more hours in the case of South Africa. Considering the dichotomous dependent variable, a binary response model is utilised to explore the determinants of such behaviour. Findings of the probit model reveal that socio-demographic factors such as gender, marital status, education level, and work experience are important indicators to explain this preference. More precisely, being female increases the likelihood of willingness to work more hours if paid by 1.1 percentage points, and being never married increases that probability by 2.7 percentage points. Within education categories, the highest coefficient in magnitude, having tertiary education decreases the probability of willingness to work more hours by 8.2 percentage points. As an important labour market indicator, one more year to commence working increases the probability of willingness to work more hours by 0.4 percentage points.

    Ozcan, Handan; Savci, Hamit; Canik, Muhammed; Ayan, Mahsun; Bas, Cağla Firdevs

    Purpose: This study aimed to determine the relationship between the symptoms of anger and loneliness among women in the menopausal period. Design and Methods: A total of 200 women in the menopausal period were interviewed within the scope of this study. Descriptive Information Form, UCLA Loneliness Scale, Trait Anger and Anger Expression Scale and Menopause-Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire were used to collect data. Findings: The mean score of the UCLA Loneliness Scale was found as 53.61 ± 7.68 and it was observed that the participants had high traits of anger and a high-level of loneliness. Loneliness and anger increase when menopausal symptoms increase in women. Practice Implications: Menopause is generally perceived by women as a troublesome period instead of being a normal life process. In order for women to spend this period at a more comfortable and desirable level, it is important to know cultural characteristics, social support systems, coping mechanisms.

    Optimization of three-element tuned mass damper based on minimization of the acceleration transfer function for seismically excited structures

    Araz, Onur

    The three-element tuned mass damper (T-TMD) is an effective passive control device for single-degree of freedom structures due to harmonic external force. Unlike previous studies, this study aims at proposing a methodology for optimization of T-TMD positioned at the top floor of multi-degree of freedom structures under seismic loads. The equations of motion for a multi-story building controlled by a T-TMD are derived, and the T-TMD is then optimized using an advanced firefly algorithm (AFA) in the frequency domain. The aim of the optimization is to minimize the amplitude of the acceleration transfer function of the top floor of the building. The proposed methodology is implemented in two different shear buildings, and the optimum parameters are then verified by using benchmark earthquakes with different frequency components. The comparisons with the available works illustrate the availability of the AFA. The effect of the mass ratio on the optimum parameters of the T-TMD is also discussed in detail. Numerical results show that the use of the optimum T-TMD is an effective strategy to minimize the maximum structural responses of the multi-story buildings under seismic excitations. In particular, the optimum T-TMD is very effective when the maximum story responses (i.e., displacement and acceleration) occur at the top floor of the building.

    Effect of front, lateral and back dead layer thicknesses of a HPGe detector on full energy peak efficiency

    Kaya, Selim; Çeli̇k, Necati; Bayram, Tuncay

    As well known, High Purity Germanium (HPGe) detectors have a wide range of applications in every area where radiation detection and measurements are involved. One of the most important parameters in this respect is the determination of the full energy peak (FEP) efficiency. There are certain parameters affecting the so-called FEP efficiency. Perhaps the most important one is the thickness of dead layers of the crystal itself. In the current study, we investigated the effects of the thickness of front, lateral and back dead layer thicknesses of the detector crystal on the FEP efficiencies for the energy range 30 keV–5 MeV using EGS4 Monte Carlo simulation package. It was shown that the change in the thickness of the front dead layer has significant effect on the efficiency values for the energy interval 30–400 keV. The change in the thickness of the lateral and back dead layer was shown to have significant effects on the efficiencies for the energy intervals 2–3 MeV and 3–5 MeV, respectively. The results were checked using GEANT4 and a good agreement was observed.

    Innovative polygon trend analyses with star graph for rainfall and temperature data in agricultural regions of Turkey

    Acar, Emine; Kankal, Murat; Akçay, Fatma; Şan, Murat

    Agriculture is affected by climate change, such as extreme increases or decreases rainfall and temperature patterns. It is possible to research that effect by using trend analysis methodologies. This paper investigates trends of monthly total rainfall and mean temperature data of nine selected stations from agricultural regions of Turkey between 1969 and 2020. To the end, the classical Mann–Kendall, Innovative Trend Significance Test (ITST), and Innovative Polygon Trend Analysis (IPTA) with Star Graph methods providing the opportunity to examine seasonal behavior were used for trend analysis. The analysis reveals that about 96% of all monthly rainfall in the Mann-Kendall test has no trend. However, nearly all stations tend to decrease (increase) in November (September) in both innovative approaches. For temperature, it is seen that increasing trend or no trend dominated in general. There were increasing trends in the innovative approaches throughout the year except for April. Temperatures have increased significantly throughout the year in all regions over the last decades. With the help of IPTA, it was also concluded that the seasonal internal variability of rainfall over the entire time and in the last 30 years is quite complex and persists in all agricultural regions. The results show that irregular changes in rainfall and rising temperatures in all stations negatively affected crop yield and/or required more irrigation. In addition, according to the results obtained by comparing trend methods, innovative approaches are very insistent on determining of trend and provide additional information through a visual review of trend behaviors.

    Evaluation of the in vitro antioxidant, antidiabetic and anticholinergic properties of rosmarinic acid from rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.)

    Topal, Meryem; Gulcin, İlhami

    In this study, antidiabetic, anticholinergic, and antioxidant abilities of rosmarinic acid were evaluated and compared to standards. To determine its antioxidant activity different in vitro bioanalytical methods, including total antioxidant activity (TAA), ABTS•+ scavenging activity, O2•- scavenging activity, DPPH· scavenging activity, DMPD•+ scavenging activity, potassium ferric cyanide reduction ability, cupric ion (Cu2+) reduction capacity, H2O2 scavenging activity, and ferrous ions (Fe2+) binding activities were separately performed. Also, butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), Trolox, α-tocopherol, and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) were used as the reference antioxidants. Rosmarinic acid inhibited the linoleic acid emulsion peroxidation by 89.2% while BHA, BHT, Trolox and α-tocopherol inhibited as 87.3, 97.6, 90.3 and 75.3%, respectively, at the same concentration (30 μg/mL). When these results are evaluated, rosmarinic acid had effective TAA than BHA and α-tocopherol and close to BHT and Trolox. In addition, rosmarinic acid exhibited Kİ values of 9.67 ± 0.81 nM towards acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and 33.56 ± 2.96 nM against α-glycosidase enzymes.

    Financial Literacy in Micro-Scale Enterprises Operating in Forest Products Sector: Sample of Gumushane, Turkey; [Financijska pismenost u mikropoduzećima sektora prerade drva: provincija Gumushane, Turska]

    Top, Yener; Özbek, Adem

    Enterprises are one of the main components of the economic system and they are indispensable for maintaining the sustainability of economic activities. The majority of these enterprises are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Sustainability of SMEs depends on their good financial management. Inadequate financial literacy causes SMEs’ owners to make inaccurate financial decisions. The forest products sector is mostly composed of micro-scale enterprises in which financial problems are common. Therefore, this study aims to reveal the financial literacy status of the owners of micro-scale and wood-processing enterprises. For this purpose, 78 enterprises were selected as study population. Data were collected by applying a structured questionnaire to 43 of these companies by the face-to-face interview method. The structured questionnaire consisted of multiple-choice and open-ended questions and statements prepared on the Five Likert scales. Data were analysed by using the Independent-Sample T-Test, Mann-Whitney U-Test and correlation test. The reliability coefficient of the data was found to be 0.791. Of the enterprises, 58 % produced in the furniture sub-sector and 42 % in the wood products sub-sector. This study provides evidence that there was no statistically significant difference between the knowledge means of economics and financial behaviour of the furniture and wood products sectors. However, the enter-prise owners’ knowledge of financial analysis positively affected their financial literacy and financial behaviour.

    Insights into brewed tea waste as a green and low-priced adsorbent for solid-phase extraction of Cd(II) ions: isotherm, kinetic, and artificial neural network approach

    Ozdes, Duygu; Tilki, Nida; Seker, Serdal; Duran, Celal

    In the present research, brewed tea waste (BTW) was utilized as a green, low-priced, and abundant adsorbent for separation/preconcentration of Cd(II) ions through solid-phase extraction method from water and foods for the first time. BTW was applied as a natural adsorbent, without using any chelating agent to bind Cd(II) ions or any chemical reagent for its modification. A three-layer artificial neural network model using backpropagation algorithm was utilized to explicate a prediction model for the extraction performance of Cd(II) ions by selecting the input parameters as solution pH, quantity of BTW, sample volume, eluent concentration and volume, and equilibrium time for desorption. The preconcentration factor, relative standard deviation, and detection limit were attained as 100, 3.03%, and 0.56 µg L−1, respectively. It was decided that the Langmuir isotherm model is acceptable to characterize the retention of Cd(II) ions on BTW. This result pointed out that the active binding sites on the BTW surface are homogeneously distributed. Adsorption capacity of BTW was achieved as 41.5 mg g−1 which is higher than several expensive and difficult-to-prepare adsorbents. Adsorption kinetics was elucidated by pseudo-second order kinetic model. After confirmed the accuracy of the method with spike/recovery studies, it was employed for Cd(II) determination in water (stream and sea water) and food (eggplant, lettuce, parsley, apple, and apricot) samples with high accuracy. The inferences of the study proved that the BTW offers a magnificent application prospect in the extraction of Cd(II) ions.

    Flaxseed and Cornelian cherry: Development of a functional cookie using response surface methodology

    İlyasoğlu, Huri; Arslan Burnaz, Nesibe; Arpa Zemzemoğlu, Tuba Eda

    Consumers' demand for healthy foods has been increased. The aim of this study was to develop a functional cookie from wheat flour with flaxseed (FS) and Cornelian cherry (CC). The effects of the levels of FS flour (10–30 g for 100 g composite flour) and CC powder (2–10 g for 100 g composite flour) in the cookie formulation on the cookie properties were investigated by using response surface methodology. The lightness of the cookies was decreased with the addition of the FS and CC. The incorporation of the FS into the formulation enhanced the content of omega-3 fatty acids. Both FS and CC enhanced the total phenolic contents (TPCs) and antioxidant capacity of the cookies. Moreover, they did not have effects on the hardness and overall acceptability. The developed cookie contained FS (23.6 g 100 g−1) and CC (10 g 100 g−1) that provided α-linolenic acid (16.5 g 100 g−1), TPC (340.2 mg GAE 100 g−1), and antioxidant capacity (996.6 μmol TEAC 100 g−1). Our study indicated that the combination of wheat flour with FS with CC can have the potential to enhance the nutritional and functional values of the cookies. Novelty impact statement: The combination of wheat flour with flaxseed and Cornelian cherry in the cookie formulation enhanced the contents of omega-3 fatty acids, total phenolic content, and antioxidant capacity of the cookies. The developed cookie may be an alternative product for consumers who look for healthy bakery products.

    Kabakuş Aykut, Memnune; Bilici, Saniye

    Purpose: This study was carried out to evaluate the relation between meal patterns and the risk of eating disorders in university students. Methods: The study was conducted on a total of 331 volunteer students with a mean age of 22.08 ± 1.80 years, 56.5% female. Participants’ sociodemographic characteristics, health information and eating habits like meal skipping and dieting were questioned. Sick, Control, One stone, Fat, Food (SCOFF) Eating Disorders Scale and Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (EDE-Q) were used to determine eating behavior disorders, with face to face interviews by the researches. Results: A significant correlation was found between dieting and skipping meals and the risk of eating disorders in both genders (p < 0.05). In addition, when the reasons for skipping meals were questioned, a significant relationship was detected between skipping meals and eating behaviour disorders by 3.285 times (p = 0.000). Also, every unit of increase in body mass index (BMI) values of individuals who participated to the study led to an increase in eating disorders by a factor of 1.262 (p = 0.000). Conclusions: Our findings support concerns about the negative health effects of increasing overweight among university students in accordance with the data that the increase in BMI values led to an increase in eating disorders. Notably a significant correlation was found between dieting, skipping meals and the risk of eating disorders in both genders it is highlighting the need for monitoring and early diagnosis of eating disorders in youth with simple scales like SCOFF. Level of evidence: Level V, cross-sectional descriptive study.

    Closing the Loop in Photovoltaic Solar and Wind Power Supply Chains: An investigation in Turkey through Neutrosphopic-DELPHI-based Force Field Analysis and Neutrosphopic-DEMATEL

    Erol, Ismail; Peker, Iskender; Turan, İsmet; Benli, Tolga

    Since solar panels and wind turbines have limited lifespans, solar photovoltaic energy supply chain (SPvESC) and wind energy supply chain (WESC) in Turkey needs a paradigm shift to improve the efficiency and recyclability of solar panel and wind turbine components. The circular economy (CE) is a viable strategy for reducing the negative effects of linear supply chains in the SPvESC and WESC. However, despite the several drivers of implementing CE in the SPvESC and WESC, there are also barriers to CE initiatives. It is argued that further studies are needed to explore the drivers and challenges for CE adoption in different industries of developing and developed countries. Hence, the goal of this research is to explore the driving and restraining forces for CE adoption in Turkey's SPvESC and WESC through a decision framework that includes Neutrosphopic DELPHI-based Force Field Analysis, Neutrosphopic-DEMATEL, and Nominal Group Technique. The findings of this research suggested that because the total score of restraining forces is higher than that of driving forces in force field analysis, it is critical to investigate the relationships among the restraining forces. Our findings also suggested that nonexistence of effective incentives and regulations proved to be the most prominent restraining force.
