Yapılan araştırmada ilişki doyumunun, geçmiş çalışmaların aksine mükemmeliyetçilik ve obsesif kompulsif belirtiler ve belirsizliğe tahammülsüzlük ile de anlamlı bir ilişkiye rastlanmamıştır. Yaş ve ilişki süresinin ise ilişki doyumunu yordadığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.This thesis aims to evaluate the relationship between relationship satisfaction and intolerance of uncertainty, perfectionism, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms, in order to better understand the relationships among these variables and determine the factors that influence individuals' satisfaction levels in their relationships. Additionally, one of the objectives of this study is to examine whether there is a significant difference based on sociodemographic characteristics such as relationship duration, having children, gender, etc., which are believed to be associated with these variables. In addition to making sense of relationships, this thesis study aims to contribute to psychological support and therapy processes by examining the complex relationships between relationship satisfaction and intolerance of uncertainty, perfectionism, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms, and to identify issues that need to be addressed in preventive efforts. The study was conducted with the voluntary participation of men and women aged 18-40 living in various parts of Turkey. The participants of the study consisted of 441 individuals from three different groups: those without a relationship, those with a boyfriend/girlfriend, and those who were married. The participants were reached through online platforms via Google Forms. The thesis study was carried out using quantitative research methods. As part of the research, after informed consent forms were provided for information purposes, data were collected through the Relationship Satisfaction Scale, Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale, Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale, Maudsley Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory, and a demographic information form. After cleaning the invalid data, the collected data were evaluated using appropriate statistical analysis techniques, and the findings were interpreted. In the conducted research, no significant relationship was found between relationship satisfaction and perfectionism, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, and intolerance of uncertainty, contrary to previous studies. However, it was concluded that age and relationship duration predict relationship satisfaction.No sponso
A study on the cross-section data of 43,44m,46,47Sc isotopes via (d,x) reactions on natural abundance targets under the effects of deuteron optical models
No full textMany studies have investigated the influence of theoretical models and factors involved in the acquisition of cross-section data of a nuclear reaction. The implications of different models of various variables such as level density, gamma strength function, and optical potentials on cross-section calculations whether used solo or jointly are investigated in a significant portion of the works conducted in this perspective. The aim of this particular study is to investigate the influence of different optical models on the cross-section calculations in production of several scandium isotopes, known for various medical uses, from several targets with natural abundances by (d,x) reactions. For this purpose, the cross-section calculations using five available deuteron optical models of TALYS code in natTi(d,x)43Sc, natTi(d,x)44mSc, natTi(d,x)46Sc, natTi(d,x)47Sc, natV(d,x)47Sc and natCr(d,x)47Sc reactions were performed and the obtained calculation results were compared with the experimental cross-section data gathered from the literature. To understand whether there is a significant and consistent relationship between the experimental data and the calculation results, both have been plotted together and analyzed with the naked-eye. In addition, the calculations of the mean standardized deviation, the mean relative deviation, the mean ratio and the mean square logarithmic deviation were performed in order to evaluate the results numerically.No sponso
Use of MicroRNAs as biomarkers in the early diagnosis of prostate cancer
Get PDFIntroduction: Prostate cancer (PCa) is a common type of cancer in western countries and prominent cause of mortality in men. The aim of the study was to evaluate miRNAs as biomarkers in PCa in healthy individuals and prostate cancer with patients, and examined the effect of miRNA levels on tumour mass. Material and methods: Twenty prostate cases, age (mean and range) 61,4±12.1 (45-73), and twenty healthy men, age 59,3±11.2 (44-70) were included to the study. Seven miRNAs including two internal controls (Let7c, miR125b, miR141, miR145, miR 155, miR181 ve miR192) were evaluated in two groups. Results: The mean and range of prostate spesific antigen (PSA) in cancer cases and healthy individuals were 6.79±2.84 ng/ml (2.25-14.7) and 3.8±2.2 ng/ml (1.3-7.8) respectively. The level of miR141 was significantly lower in PCa cases than healthy individuals (p=0,004), and miR155 was significantly higher (p=0,005) in PCa cases. Both miRNAs were explored sensitive and specific in the ROC analysis. Tumour mass were found to be associated with the level of miR-125b and miR-145. Conclusion: validation studies are required in wider patient groups in the subject of tumor effect and miRNA biomarkers in prostate cancerThe current study was funded by Republic

Temperature dependence of the emission cross-section and fluorescence lifetime in Cr:LiCAF, Cr:LiSAF, and Cr:LiSGaF between 78 K and 618 K
No full textCr:Colquiriites (Cr:LiCAF, Cr:LiSAF, and Cr:LiSGaF) are well-known for their broad emission bands in the near-infrared region. Unfortunately, due to their relatively weak thermomechanical strength, average powers from Cr:Colquiriite lasers have been so far limited to sub-5 W level in continuous-wave operation at room temperature. In this study, the promise of cryogenic operation, which shows significant power scalability in Yb-based systems, is investigated in detail for Cr-doped Colquiriite crystals in terms of the temperature dependence of the fluorescence lifetime and emission cross-section (σe) in the 78-618 K range. The lifetime measurements showed that the fluorescence, as well as the radiative lifetimes of Cr:Colquiriites are temperature dependent. The emission cross-section measurements revealed that while cooling the crystals from 300 K to 78 K, the peak σe in E||c polarization increases moderately for all crystals: from around 1.3 × 10−20 cm2 to 1.6 × 10−20 cm2 in Cr:LiCAF, from around 4.5 × 10−20 cm2 to 6.3 × 10−20 cm2 in Cr:LiSAF and from around 3.1 × 10−20 cm2 to 3.95 × 10−20 cm2 in Cr:LiSGaF. We provide analytical formulas describing the measured temperature dependence of all relevant quantities such as fluorescence/radiative lifetime, peak emission wavelength, peak emission cross-section, and emission full-width at half-maximum. Overall, the reported results constitute a solid basis for the modeling of Cr:Colquiriite-based laser and amplifier systems, especially for the assessment of their potential at cryogenic temperaturesNo sponso
Business analytics capabilities and decision quality: the mediating roles of decision speed and comprehensiveness
No full textThis paper examines the nexus between business analytics and strategic decision facets using the resource-based theory. Analysis with partial least squares demonstrate that decision comprehensiveness and speed mediate the relationship between business analytics and decision quality. While fuzzy sets analysis demonstrates that business analytics, decision comprehensiveness, and speed are sufficient (but not necessary) conditions for decision quality. When firms utilize business analytics, decision speed and comprehensiveness are mutually inclusive. Theoretical and practical implications are offered.No sponso

Exploring the role of destination familiarity on flow experience
No full textInternational Cappadocia Scientific Research Congress (4. : 2023 : Nevşehir, Türkiye)People can obtain a variety of information that will familiarize them with a destination. This research aims to explore the link between destination familiarity and flow experience. For this purpose, the data were collected from Turkish people who had a vacation during the summer of 2022. Convenience sampling technique was used to collect 208 data between
November 2022 to February 2023. The survey included three parts. The first part includes 16 items for 4 dimensions of flow experience. The second part includes five familiarity items.
The last part covers demographic (e.g. age) and travel characteristics (e.g. travel partner) of participants. The items in the questionnaire were scored from 1 (totally disagree) to 5 (totally agree). The SPSS was preferred for the descriptive statistics. About %70 of respondents were female. Regarding age, close to half of participants (%45.7) were 25 years old or below. In
terms of travel companions, the majority of the participants (%49) traveled with family members. The PLS-SEM was conducted for the analysis. The results show that destination familiarity significantly impacts flow experience. In other words, the causal relationship between destination familiarity and flow experience was proved. This research broadens
practitioners’ perspectives in developing marketing strategies. For example, online marketing tools should include cultural aspects of daily life at the destination. The current research has some limitations. First, future studies should consider using the number of previous visits as a moderator variable. Also, other studies could include the influence of destination type (resort, island etc.) on connection between familiarity and flow.No sponso
