    Afet Yönetimi Sürecinde Risk Algısı Çalışmalarının Katkısı

    Mizrak, Sefa

    Afetleri önlemek ve afetlerin zararlarını azaltmak için birçok yapısal ve yapısal olmayan çalışma yürütülmektedir. Özellikle afetler ve afetlerin olası sonuçları hakkında insanların düşüncelerini anlamak afet risk azaltma çalışmaları için önemlidir. Çünkü, insanların düşünceleri afetlere karşı koruyucu önlem alma davranışlarını etkilemektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, afetlerle ilgili yürütülen bilimsel risk algısı çalışmalarının afet yönetimi açısından önemini ortaya çıkarmaktır. Çalışma literatür taraması olarak yapılandırılmıştır. Bilim insanları farklı afet türlerine karşı insanların risk algılarını ve risk algısını etkileyen faktörleri yaygın bir şekilde araştırmışlardır. İnsanların afet risk algıları afetler ile ilgili algıladıkları korku, endişe, depresyon, anksiyete, maddi veya bireysel zarar görme olasılığı, bilgi, müdahale kapasitesine güven, afetin şiddeti, sıklığı ve etkisinin büyüklüğüne göre belirlenmiştir. Sosyo-demografik değişkenler arasından yaş, eğitim, ekonomik durum, afet tecrübesi ve afet risk algısı ilişkisi yaygın olarak araştırılmıştır. Afet risk algısı çalışmaları afet öncesi ve afet sonrası yönetim süreçlerinin daha iyi planlanması için gereklidir. Bu nedenle bilim insanları ve afet yönetiminden sorumlu kişiler toplumun afet risk algısını bütün afetler için kapsamlı bir şekilde araştırmalıdır.

    Türk Bankacilik Sektöründeki Getiri ve Risk Oranları ile Doğrudan Yabancı Sermaye Yatırımları İlişkisi

    Akyol, Hikmet

    Bu araştırmada Türk bankacılık sektörü hisse senedi getirileri ve sistematik risklerinin doğrudan yabancı sermaye yatırımları (DYSY) ile olan ilişkisi incelenmiştir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda 2006-2009 arasındaki dönem Kao (1999) ve Pedroni (1999, 2004) eşbütünleşme testleri kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Uzun dönem katsayıları ise Havuzlanmış Ortalama Grup (PMG) ve Dinamik En Küçük Kareler (DFE) tahmincileri kullanılarak incelenmiştir. Sonuçlar, DYSY’lerin hisse senedi getirileri ve banka betaları üzerinde negatif yönlü ve anlamlı bir etkiye sahip olduğunu göstermiştir. Buna göre, Türkiye’ye yapılan yabancı sabit sermaye yatırımları arttıkça banka getirileri ve sistematik riskler düşmektedir. Bu bulgu, Türk bankacılık sektörü özelinde Türk finans sisteminin uluslararası sermaye akımlarına karşı son derece duyarlı olduğunu göstermektedir. Özellikle DYSY’leri teşvik edecek politikaların uygulanması, bankaların portföy çeşitlendirmesi yaparak ortadan kaldıramadığı piyasa risklerinin düşürülmesine önemli katkı sağlayacaktır. Bu politikalar aynı zamanda bankacılık sektörünün istikrarına ve kurumsal sağlamlığına olumlu etki edecektir. Araştırmada değişkenler arasındaki nedensellik ilişkisi Emirmahmutoğlu ve Köse (2011) nedensellik analizi kullanılarak incelenmiştir. Uygulanan nedensellik test sonuçları, DYSY’den sadece Garanti Bankasının hisse senedi getirilerine doğru nedensellik ilişkisi bulunduğunu göstermiştir. Benzer şekilde sadece Vakıfbank’tan DYSY’ye doğru nedenselliğin olduğu tespit edilmiştir. DYSY ve banka betaları arasındaki nedensellik incelendiğinde sadece DYSY’den Denizbank’a doğru olduğu, aynı zamanda Halkbank betalarından DYSY’ye doğru nedensellik ilişkisi olduğu gözlenmiştir.

    Avcı, İbrahim; Yildiz, Emel

    İlk olarak Çin’de ortaya çıkan ve daha sonra tüm dünyaya yayılan Covid-19 pandemisi birçok sektörü etkilediği gibi eğitim sektörünü de etkilemiştir. Pandeminin hızla yayılmasını engellemek için alınan ilk önlem sosyal mesafe olmuş ve insanlararası temasın fazla olduğu iş yeri, avm, sinema gibi alanlar kapatılmıştır. Kapatılan alanların içerisine eğitim-öğretim faaliyetlerinin yürütüldüğü tüm kurumlar da dahil edilmiş ve eğitim-öğretim faaliyetlerinin uzaktan eğitim şeklinde yürütülmesine karar verilmiştir. Gerek eğitim alan gerek eğitim veren kişiler uzaktan eğitim sistemini kullanmaya başlamıştır. Dolayısı ile araştırmanın temel amacı Teknoloji Kabul Modeli çerçevesinde uzaktan eğitim sisteminin kullanımına yönelik tüm öğrencilerin memnuniyet ve davranışsal niyetlerini belirlemektir. Bu kapsamda veriler hazırlanan online anket formu ile toplanmış ve elde edilen veriler Spss ve Amos programları ile analiz edilmiştir. Verilerin pandemi nedeniyle online anket ile toplanması, araştırmanın önemli kısıtıdır. Analiz sonuçlarında algılanan fayda ve performans beklentisinin memnuniyet ve davranışsal niyet üzerinde; memnuniyetin ise davranışsal niyet üzerinde anlamlı etkisinin olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

    Bireysel Yatırım Kararlarında Davranışsal Eğilimlerin Ölçülmesi: Gümüşhane İlinde Bir Araştırma

    Çam, Alper Veli; Hırka, Emre

    Geleneksel finans modelleri, bireysel yatırımcıların yatırım kararlarını verirken rasyonel olduklarını, yüksek getiriyi hedeflediklerini, piyasaların etkin olduğunu, tüm yatırımcıların aynı beklentilere sahip olduğunu ve menkul kıymet fiyatlarının tesadüfi oluştuğunu varsaymaktadır. Ancak, bu ve benzeri teoriler piyasada meydana gelen birçok olayı açıklamakta yetersiz kaldığı yönünde eleştirilmiştir. Bu durum davranışsal finans denilen yeni bir yaklaşımın ortaya çıkmasına neden olmuştur. Davranışsal finans teorisi, duyguların bireylerin davranışlarını etkilediğini ve bu nedenle bireylerin rasyonel karar veremediğini varsaymaktadır. Literatürde, davranışsal finans konusunun çoğunlukla bireysel menkul kıymet yatırımcıları üzerinde durduğu gözlemlenmiştir. Altın yatırımcıları finansal piyasaların önemli oyuncularından biridir. Yapılan literatür taramasında finansal piyasaların önemli oyuncularından olan altın yatırımcıları ile ilgili davranışsal finans çalışmalarına çok nadir rastlanmıştır. Bu doğrultuda çalışma, altın yatırımcılarının davranışlarını araştırmak amacıyla hazırlanmıştır. Çalışma kapsamına Gümüşhane’de yaşayan ve altın yatırımda bulunan bireysel altın yatırımcıları alınmıştır. Çalışmada, altın yatırımcılarına yönelik anket uygulanmıştır. Uygulamada 405 yatırımcının verileri SPSS 24 programında analiz edilmiştir. Analiz yöntemleri olarak frekans analizi, geçerlilik analizi ve varyans analizi kullanılmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda test edilen tüm hipotezler kabul edilmiştir.

    Durmuş, İbrahim; Akyüz, Ahmet Mutlu

    Bu araştırmada akademisyenlerin kariyer memnuniyeti düzeyine etki edebilecek faktörlerin belirlenmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Araştırmada alanyazında eksikliği hissedilen "çalışma ortamından memnuniyet", "organizasyona güven" ve "kişisel gelişim" değişkenlerinin, akademisyenlerin kariyer memnuniyet düzeyleri üzerindeki doğrudan ve dolaylı etkilerine odaklanılmıştır. Araştırmaya ilişkin veriler dört devlet üniversitesinden toplam 587 akademisyenden elektronik anket yöntemi ile elde edilmiştir. Geliştirilen hipotezler, Kısmi En Küçük Kareler (Partial Least Squares-PLS) algoritması kullanılarak "yapısal eşitlik modellemesi" ile test edilmiştir. Araştırma sonuçları doğrudan ve toplam etkiler açısından değerlendirilmiştir. Buna göre, akademisyenin çalışma ortamı memnuniyetinin, kişisel gelişim ve kariyer memnuniyeti düzeyini artırdığı gözlemlenmiştir. Ayrıca akademisyenin kişisel gelişimi de kariyer memnuniyeti düzeyini artırmıştır. Araştırmada akademisyenin organizasyonuna olan güveni, kişisel gelişim üzerinde anlamsız bir etki oluşturmaktadır. Ayrıca akademisyenin organizasyona güveni, kariyer memnuniyeti düzeyini de artırmaktadır. Araştırma modelindeki dolaylı etkiler incelendiğinde; çalışma ortamı memnuniyetinin kariyer memnuniyeti üzerindeki etkisinde, kişisel gelişim değişkeni aracı bir etkiye sahiptir. Bununla birlikte organizasyona güven değişkeninin kariyer memnuniyeti değişkeni üzerindeki etkisinde, kişisel gelişim değişkeninin aracı etkisi olmadığı gözlemlenmiştir.

    Current Status of Forage Crops Cultivation and Strategies for the Future in Turkey: A Review

    Tan, Mustafa; Yolcu, Halil

    Forage crops cultivation area in Turkey is 2.312 million ha in 2020. The rate of forage cultivation in the total agricultural area is 6.1%, and its rate in the field land is 12.3%. Lucerne, silage corn, oat, vetch, and sainfoin are main forage crops in Turkey. The amount of produced is 16.8 million tons of hay and 48.8 thousand tons of seeds. The forage crop cultivation areas have increased by 206% since the beginning of the 2000s due to the government subsidies. However, shortage of quality roughage is still a big problem for animal husbandry of the country. For this reason, new strategies should be developed to increase forage cultivation areas by considering global warming, drought, and climate change. In order to meet the need for roughage, it is necessary to expand the cultivation area of forage crops as winter catch crops and second crops. In addition, some of the fallow fields should be utilized by growing drought-resistant forage species. The fields abandoned due to different problems should be used for the cultivation of suitable forage crops.

    The Impact of Environmental Technological Innovations on CO2 Emissions: The Case of OECD Countries

    Akyol, Mehmet; Mete, Emrullah

    Global warming and climate change, caused by greenhouse gas emissions, have compelled all countries to reconsider their production factors. Developing technologies to reduce emission volumes has been one of the priority targets for countries. This study investigated the impact of environmental technological innovations on CO2 emissions in 18 OECD members. The panel generalized method of moments (GMM)was employed in the study to produce estimates for the period between 2005 and 2018. Energy consumption, economic growth (GDP), and technological innovation data were used as independent variables in the study, CO2 emissions were used as dependent variable, whereas the number of patents preventing climate change was used as a technological innovation indicator. The analysis results showed that a 1% increase in patent applications for preventing climate change reduced CO2 emissions by 0.02%. However, a 1% increase in energy consumption caused an increase of 0.56% in CO2 emissions. Finally, the 1% increase in the GDP growth rate caused an increase of 0.002% in CO2 emissions.

    An Analysis of the Pictures in Physics Textbooks in Terms of Gender Roles

    Takaoglu, Zeynep Baskan

    Education is one of the fundamental needs of individuals. However, sometimes undesirable attitudes such as gender discrimination can be taught through textbooks or other resources in educational activities. This study aimed to explore the images in textbooks in terms of gender roles. Physics textbooks were analyzed considering the use of images of men and women, the professions they belong to, and the people, places, and actions in which they are shown together. Physics textbooks used in the 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grades in Gumushane in the 2018-2019 academic year were examined. In this research, conducted in a qualitative research design, the document analysis technique was used for the data collection. The data were analyzed with the content analysis technique. The results showed that the images in physics textbooks include more male images, and the male gender is more often represented in professional professions and artists, and men are often depicted alone or as public actors, with professional staff, and outdoors. Female figures, on the other hand, are shown less in the textbooks, and they have taken on the duties assigned to women by the society, which are mostly inside the house. Based on this, the results reveal that Physics textbooks show a favorable position for men and that and the representation of gender roles is applied unequally. Moreover, it is also observed that traditional gender roles are displayed in textbooks through hidden curricula.

    Evaluation of the process for acquisition of land property in the implementation of power transmission line projects

    Döner, Fatih; Kaya, Erhan

    While preparing PTL (Power Transmission Line) projects, the land where the PTL is crossing is determined by considering criteria such as economy, environment and security. The realization of PTL projects is possible after acquisition of property of these lands. In this study, the process of acquisition land property in the implementation of PTL projects is evaluated. When data are examined, it is seen that the number of lawsuits filed against the PTL in past year was 15759 and rate of non-court settlement with land owners in the five-year period was 13%. The main factor for the high number of lawsuits and low settlement rate is real estate valuation studies in determining the price to be paid for land to which the PTL will be established. As land value determined as a result of valuation methods, criteria and rates referenced does not reflect real value in most cases, no agreement can be reached with the land owners. It is considered that most ideal solution from a legal point of view is to prepare a holistic valuation law that regulates real estate valuation activities, from an organizational point of view is to set a connection between cadastre and real estate valuation and from a technical point of view is to set-up a database which enables managing properties of real estates and their up-to-date values.

    Külekçi, Gokhan; Çullu, Mustafa

    Various studies on the disposal or storage of the wastes generated due to mining activities have been carried out until today. With the developing technology, the use of alternative products instead of aggregates in Composite and the effect of fiber addition were investigated. The most common of these studies is the bending strength tests on the beam sample. In this study, solid wastes generated by mining operations were used instead of aggregate used in Composite. Beam samples were poured with the dimensions of 40x40x160 mm by adding 4-6 kg/m(3) polypropylene fiber to the mixture obtained by using these solid wastes; then, its effects on ultrasonic pulse velocity test, tensile test, and compressive strength tests were conducted. According to the results of these tests, it was found that the fibers had a positive effect on compressive strength and bending strength. Also, it was found that water absorption rates and densities did not have an effect, while the ultrasonic pulse velocity decreased with increasing fiber content.

    Spatial Data Model for Rural Planning and Land Management in Turkey

    Inan, Halil Ibrahim

    In Turkey, in the areas of rural planning and land management, problems regarding data retrieval, data quality, implementation scenario and legal base (law or regulation) have long been experienced. In this study, in order to contribute to resolving such problems, a conceptual/semantic data model was designed which focuses on the definition of required data, determination of their basic qualities and also their relations. As the preparation step for the model development, interviews, and discussions with authorized people were carried out. In addition, for the definitions of the data in the model, the Land Parcel Identification System and Infrastructure for Spatial Information in the European Community (INSPIRE) are considered. For the model design, an object-oriented modelling method with the Unified Modelling Language (UML) notation was used. In the model, planning activities were focused on. It is envisaged that the model will guide work for the preparation of a technical regulation which may enable a standardized implementation throughout Turkey. It has also the potential to be an example for the implementation of laws related to spatial data both in Turkey and also worldwide.

    Investigation the Different Extraction Temperature Effect of Artvin Savsat Region Propolis PBS Extracts on Antioxidant Properties and Eryhrocyte Hemolysis Inhibition

    Canbolat, Deniz; Turan, Ibrahim; Küpeli, Yunus Emre; Kilinç, Sedanur; Piliç, Sevim

    Propolis, which has been used in traditional medicine for hundreds of years all over the world, is a resinous natural product with a complex content obtained by honey bees by mixing the buds of plants and pollen grains with enzymes they secrete. Propolis may have different contents due to the gathering region, plant source, bee variety and climate of the place where it is collected. Although there are many studies related to different regions, so far the propolis of the Savsat region in Artvin have not been studied yet. The aim of this study is to determine the antioxidant properties (determination of iron reducing power, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, total phenolic and total flavonoid content) of propolis extracts of Artvin Savsat region prepared with phosphate buffer salt solution (PBS) prepared at different temperatures (45 and 60 degrees C) and to determine the erythrocyte hemolysis inhibition properties of the extracts. Total phenolic (11.91 +/- 0.5-24.14 +/- 1.38 mg gallic acid equivalent to g propolis) and total flavonoid (1.79 +/- 0.03-2.13 +/- 0.07 mg quercetin equivalent to g propolis) content of PBS extracts, iron power determination (12.80 +/- 0.36-27.15 +/- 0.12 mg ascorbic acid equivalent to g propolis), 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrilhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity (%22.86 +/- 0.5-31.24 +/- 1.33) and erythrocyte hemolysis inhibition (%55.58 +/- 0.57-96.37 +/- 0.02) were determined using spectrophotometric methods. As a result of the experiments, it was determined that the extract with PBS obtained at a temperature of 60 degrees C was higher than the extract obtained at 45 degrees C, in terms of antioxidant properties and erythrocyte hemolysis inhibition ratio. Further studies are required to identify molecules that inhibit erythrocyte hemolysis in extracts and have antioxidant properties.

    A Research on The Relationship Between Social Media Disorder, Religiosity and Moral Disengagement In Adolescents

    Hacikelesoglu, Hizir

    Moral disengagement is a phenomenon that is at the centre of life in terms of being frequently referred to in social life. The fact that young people (as moral agents) are at the centre of criticism on moral issues makes it necessary to examine the areas in which young people are engaged and affected during this period. In this context, the present study aims to examine the relationship between social media addiction, religiosity and moral disengagement on a sample group of individuals aged 13-18. For this purpose, the research was designed according to the relational screening model, one of the quantitative research methods. The research data were collected through a sample group consisting of 415 people selected by the convenience sampling method. In the analysis of the obtained data, correlation and regression analyzes were performed by using SPSS 21. As a result of the research, there is a positive relationship between social media addiction and moral disengagement. On the other hand, a negative relationship was found between religiousness and moral disengagement. It has been determined that social media addiction and religiousness predict moral disengagement in opposite directions. In addition, it has been observed that religiosity is not a determining factor on social media addiction.

    Financial Stress and Buffer Effects of Trust in Policies in Business Life During the COVID-19 Pandemic

    Günay, Hamdi Furkan

    This study aimed to investigate the determinants of financial stress experienced in working life during the COVID-19 pandemic process in Turkey, and also the role of the confidence placed for the government pandemic action policies in reducing financial stress. For this purpose, online survey data obtained from 414 employees were analyzed with multivariate statistical methods. As a result of the analysis, the significant effect of job insecurity and pay satisfaction on financial stress was determined. Although it was found that trust in the policies against pandemics was effective in reducing financial stress, a significant moderating effect of trust in policies was not found in the relationship of other factors with financial stress. It is recommended to prevent practices that may cause revenue and employment losses in businesses and closely monitor the steps taken to inhibit abuse in this area accordingly.

    A Sociological Criticism of the Global Health Discourse: The Pandemic as a Metaphor of Contemporary Culture

    Demir, Sertac Timur

    This article argues that a clear correlation exists between disease and the prevailing social functioning. In this respect, every disease can be seen as a metaphor for the age and society in which it emerges. In other words, every period carries a form of disease that bears traces of the dominant lifestyle. This study approaches the epidemic as a kind of sociological projection in the context of studying modern culture and continues the discussion along the lines critically opened by Susan Sontag (2005). lust as Sontag examined disease as a metaphor, this article debates the discourses on masks, social distancing, and hygiene within the scope of COVID-19 along a specific sociological axis around the concepts of speed, control, information, hyper-medicalization, and death as the dominant indicators of contemporary culture. For this purpose, the study seeks answers to the following questions through the leading social theorists of the field such as Bauman, Baudrillard, Turner, Furedi and Chul-Han: How does the global epidemic and the current health discourse embodied in it appear within the sociological context? What thoughts and tendencies emerge when examining the pandemic portrait as a social metaphor? For example, what kind of relationship exists between hygiene and cultural fears; among distance, social isolation, and avoidance; and between masks and the superficial idea of death concealed behind quantification? Undoubtedly, the pandemic is a critical breaking point in the history of modern medicine and has forced not only global health practices but also many value judgments to both paradoxically be accepted and questioned.
