Karademir, Aysenur
This study aims to discover the history of Akbaba village, which is located in the Beykoz district of Istanbul. It was named after Mehmed Efendi, who was a dervish ghazi from Mehmed the Conqueror's anny. He built a dervish lodge, tekke, worshipped there until the rest of his life, and was then buried near it. Mehmed Efendi was known as Akbaba Sultan among the public, and his tomb has been a sacred place visited by Muslims since then. Canfeda Khatun, a ketkhuda wormy: of Sultan Murad M.'s harem, established a mosque and other main buildings there as part of her pious foundation, waif, and a village arose around them at the end of the sixteenth century. That was the way the land became a residential area during the Ottoman period. However, the waqf accounting registers reveal that there was more on Canted& Khatun's mind as the tekke's followers were janissaries in Akbaba. The village stayed as the way it was until 1826 when Sultan Mahmud II abolished the ocak of Janissaries, ending all their tekkes, including the one in Akbaba. As its followers were exiled, Canfeda's waqf lost its importance in the village. It seems that nobody remembers the significance of her waqf at Akbaba today besides the name of Canted& Khatun. This work explores the roots of the village through the help of archival documents, especially from the waqf accounting registers.

Demir, Sertac Timur
This article interrogates the human crisis of the modern age with a comparative and synthesist approach. Indeed, in the hands of techno-scientific progressivism that has been accelerated since the industrial revolution and the nostalgic-developmentalism that is provoked by the progressivism, the central issue in crisis is not humanity; but man himself. Moreover, this crisis, which encircles daily life entirely, is not merely epistemological, also ontological. Perhaps the most valid question of the day for the modern individual who is torn between techno-scientific progressivism that glorifies speed, technique, method, invention and externality, and the doctrines of nostalgicaldevelopmentalism that prioritise the past, memory, mystical orientation and internality, is perhaps to remain human. While Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), one of the two philosophical films subject to analysis in the article, refers to such a progressivism; and Andrei Tarkovsky's Solaris (1972) visualises developmentalism. Beyond a science-fiction analysis, this study, which approaches both positions critically, aims to focus on the crucial questions that become evident in the films with the answers of significant thinkers such as Paul Chesterton, Gaston Bachelard, Gunther Anders, Ivan Illich, Lewis Mumford, Zygmunt Bauman and Y. Noah Harari. Besides, as a proposition, it can be stated that today sci-fi movies -even the most extraordinary ones- have ironically turned into one of the most authentic projectors in making sense of the fantastic world we live in.

Yelboga, Alim; Özdemir, Hakan
Using data from the World Values Survey (2017-2021), this study examines the impact of factors such as ethical values, social norms, and perceived corruption on tax compliance, employing an ordered logistic regression analysis. The findings indicate that individuals' ethical values are the strongest determinant of tax compliance, whereas perceived corruption has a statistically significant but comparatively weaker effect. While a significant portion of the findings are consistent with existing literature, the study's clearer demonstration of the relative impact of ethical values compared to other factors constitutes a complementary contribution to the literature. Overall, the results confirm that tax compliance is shaped not only by economic incentives but also by individuals' values and perceptions. The findings demonstrate the importance of strengthening ethical values and social trust in enhancing voluntary tax compliance.

Karakurt, Birol; Sentürk, Suat Hayri; Sahingöz, Burak
Internal and external threats to Turkey lead her to have its military expenditures at a high level. The relationship between military expenditures and macroeconomic variables has been of great interest to a number of studies. However, there is no common view about the relationship between military expenditures and the inflation. In this study, the relationship between military expenditures and the inflation in Turkey is aimed to be analysed for the period 1966-2016. The length of the study period requires considering structural breaks. Therefore, according to the results of our study that benefits from a Maki cointegration test with structural breaks and Toda-Yamamoto causality test, a unidirectional positive causality between military expenditures and the inflation has been found both in the short-and the long-run.

Merdan, Kurtulus
The increase in the world population recently has also increased the need for agricultural products. The need for food products has made it necessary to obtain more products per unit area. At this point, producers have focussed on the use of hormones, chemicals, and fertilisers to increase productivity and meet the demand for cheap food, and the process that increases production in the short term has become a threat to human health in the long term. Over time, the negative effects of chemicals on humans and the environment were observed, forcing producers to seek new methods. This process has led to independent studies on organic agriculture in every country. In this study, the effects of organic agriculture on some economic variables were revealed. In this context, the analyses focus now the variables of area allocated to organic agriculture on a regional basis, production amount and number of producers affected GDP per capita, economic growth, and unemployment in Turkey between 2003 and 2021. The scientific dimension of the study was prepared using data obtained from domestic and foreign literature and the electronic database of the Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Livestock. In this study, in which panel data analysis was used, EViews 12 programme was employed. For the variables used in the study, the geographical region cross-section dependence was determined, and the stationarity of the series was examined with the CIPS (Cross-Sectionally Augmented IPS) unit root test. As a result of the study, it was determined that organic production amount, number of organic farmers, and organic production area did not have a significant effect on economic growth and unemployment. Organic production area and the number of organic farmers had a positive and significant effect on GDP per capita, but the amount of organic production did not have a significant relationship

Tüzen, Muhammed Ahmet
Adorno, who has critical thoughts on the positivist perspective that is the core of the philosophy of Enlightenment and the mental comprehension to which positivism depends, states that Kant's notion of freedom, which puts strictly adhesion to the law in the center, is an abstract, disconnected from experience, compelling/oppressive nature. Accordingly, Kant, who activates the mind against the blind power of nature, explains the free action as to act according to the pure mind. In Kant, which approaches moral laws as freedom laws, freedom is considered as the law that both is to use of the mind in an absolute manner and must be obeyed and treated accordingly. In this context, Adorno implies that Kant's moral philosophy is structured in such a way as not to allow it to act otherwise, although it does not have authoritarian thoughts. This study which is based on Adorno's thoughts aims to evaluate Kant's understanding of freedom in four parts within the above-mentioned framework: (i) Freedom as a balancing force against the causality of nature, (ii) freedom disconnected from experience and spiritualized, (iii) freedom to express action by centering the law, (iv) freedom intertwined with bourgeois work ethic.

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.

Çelik, Meryem; Ilyasoglu, Huri
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of black lentil flour (BLF) on the quality of wheat bread. The control bread with wheat flour and BLF-supplemented breads (2, 6 and 10 %, respectively) were prepared and analyzed in terms of proximate composition, physicochemical and sensorial properties, total phenolic content (TPC), and antioxidant activity. The BLF-supplemented breads provided significantly higher protein compared to the control bread (p < 0.05). Moreover, it improved significantly TPC and antioxidant capacity (p < 0.05). However, the addition of BLF reduced significantly the specific volume of the bread, L* and b* values of both crumb and crust (p < 0.05). The BLF had no influence overall acceptability. Our findings revealed that the BLF may a have potential use to enhance the quality of wheat bread.

Bayrakdaroglu, Serdar; Tekin, Ali
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder is a significant problem in children. Primarily pharmacological, educational, cognitive-behavioural and multi-model intervention techniques are used to treat this disorder. The success level differs with advantages and disadvantages of each technique and any single technique is not sufficient. In recent years, the positive aspects of physical exercise used in treatment alone or in combination with other techniques has made the different types of physical exercise worthy of investigation. This review aims to summarize the scientific evidence obtained through literature on the effects of defense sports in the treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder in children. The results showed that the most beneficial sports are Taekwondo, Karate, Judo and Tai Chi. There are studies supporting the positive effect of the use of defense sports in treatment with few exceptions, but it is quantitatively insufficient. Therefore, new studies are needed to test the effect of different defense sports on a sufficient number of different samples representing the related population.

Technological developments play an important role in economic growth and development and form the basis in the convergence of socioeconomic factors between developed and developing countries, especially income. At the same time, developing countries aim to catch up with the leading countries by improving their technological capabilities, and examining the technological convergence between countries, especially developing countries, is essential at this stage. This study aims to examine whether technological convergence occurs in 10 emerging economies. For this purpose, the study analyzes technological convergence over the variables of number of patents, labor productivity, and total factor productivity using Pesaran's (2007) cross-sectionally augmented Dickey-Fuller (CADF) and seemingly unrelated regression augmented Dickey-Fuller (SURADF) unit root tests. According to the results of the analysis, although there is convergence in some countries, it does not confirm in general technological convergence among the countries.

The goal of the study is determining the relationship with football players' positive thinking skills and sportsmanship orientations. The study consisted of a total of 690 football players in 30 teams competing in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd groups of the 4th region of the regional amateur league organized by the Turkish Football Federation in 2021-2022, and the sample consisted of 149 athletes voluntarily participating in this universe. Personal information, positive thinking and sportsmanship orientation scales were used collecting data. Statistical analysis was performed on a computer environment. Pearson moment product correlation analysis (r) was applied. As a result, it was determined that the positive thinking skills and sportsmanship orientations of the regional amateur footballers were at a level that could be considered high. A positively moderate correlation was seen between positive thinking skills and sportsmanship orientations sub-dimensions and total scores. Athletes competing in this league, which is the last stage of the transition from amateur to professional, are considered to be semi-professional and it is thought that their ability to resist various pressures such as psychological and physiological in challenging competitions is due to their sportive experience and abilities.

Sari, Mahmut; Öztürk, Serkan
In this study, Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) technique was used for the detection of i) the reasons of deformations which occur in the field ground of Gumushane University Sport Complex (GUSC), and ii) the congestion in flow pipe of Gumushane University, Engineering and Natural Sciences Faculty (GUENSF). GPR data was collected by using the RAMAC CU II device and a shielded antenna with a 500 MHz center frequency. The wave fields for GUSC were examined by 2D and 3D processing. The large-scaled hyperbolic reflections are in corresponds to the areas where the field ground has deformations. It is considered that these anomaly areas may include a gap or a padding having a large gap and suggested that these damaged areas must be full with hard materials. The large-scaled hyperbolic reflections approximately starts in one-meter depth and reaches three-meters. For GUENSF, the measurements were conducted on the route where the main flow pipe crosses. In GPR sections, hyperbolas with high amplitudes were observed in the zones where flow pipe passes. Information on slope of flow pipe was provided by examining the association of these hyperbolas with the depth, and the clogged zones were detected. It is stated that unclogging the clogged zones of the flow pipe will not fully contribute to the resolution of the problem. Therefore, it is suggested to provide necessary slope to the flow pipe by completely removing and mounting back. These results show that GPR technique is an effective tool to provide a good image and solution for the complex ground problems.

Okcu, Melih; Karabulut, Besim
Mankind caused a lot of harm to their environment unintentionally during agriculture. Thus nowadays production techniques that are compatible with nature, making the right use of the resources, targeting sustainable development, looking after animal welfare are beginning to spread throughout the world. Especially organic agriculture among those techniques gained a seat as it depends on customer preference. Organic agriculture that has the following five fundamental features: compatibility to nature, self sufficiency, sustainability, welfare, traceability began with the production of dried grape, dried figs, dried apricots and nuts in our country during the 1980s with the contractual agriculture system intending to export. During the following years, hardshell and dried fruits, frozen fruits and vegetables, fresh fruits and vegetables, spices and legumes followed the previous ones in export. Also, production and exportation of rose water, rose oil, olive oil, cotton and textile products increased considerably. In our country where there is a wide variety of products for organic agriculture, in eastern black sea region tea and nuts are the most cultivated products. Organic agriculture is carried out in every province of the region, the contribution of provinces in percentage as follows: Rize 42%, Ordu 25%, Artvin 13%, Trabzon 10%, Gumushane and Giresun 5%. Organic stock raising is done only in Gumushane and Ordu. Gumushane has the most promising potential for organic stock raising.

Maraslioglu, Serife Ericek
Earthquakes, as natural disasters, are stressful life events characterized by frustration, uncertainty, and psychological burden. In fact, disappointment intolerance - the inability to tolerate distressing or obstructive experiences - has been shown to predict both life satisfaction and depressive symptoms. The present study aims to examine the mediating role of proactive personality in the relationship between disappointment intolerance beliefs and mental health, as well as the moderating role of religious attitudes in this relationship among earthquake victims living in container cities after the 6 February earthquakes. The participants were survivors residing in the region's most severely affected materially and morally by the earthquake centered in Kahramanmara & scedil;, T & uuml;rkiye. Data were collected from 354 individuals 18 months after the earthquake using the Demographic Information Form, Frustration Discomfort Scale, Proactive Personality Scale, Religious Attitude Scale, and Mental Health Scale. Pearson correlation, mediation, and moderation analyses were conducted. The findings indicated that higher levels of frustration intolerance were associated with increased levels of depression, anxiety, and stress. Furthermore, proactive personality was found to mediate the effect of disappointment intolerance subdimensions (entitlement, achievement, emotional intolerance, and discomfort intolerance) on mental health outcomes. However, religious attitudes did not moderate the negative impact of disappointment intolerance on depression, anxiety, and stress. The results are discussed considering existing literature, and implications for future research and intervention strategies are offered.
