STRONGLY HYPERBOLIC TYPE CONVEXITY AND SOME NEW INEQUALITIES
No full textIn this study, we introduce and study the concept of strongly hyperbolic type convexity functions and their some algebraic properties. We obtain Hermite-Hadamard type inequalities for the strongly hyperbolic type convex functions. After that, by using an identity, we get some inequalities for strongly hyperbolic type convex functions. In addition, we compare the results obtained with both Holder, Holder-Iscan inequalities and power-mean, improved power-mean integral inequalities

Ayrıca toplumlarda sağlıklı ve kaliteli beslenme bilincinin oluşması tarımsal üretimin beklentilerini de değiştirmiş ve organik tarım, iyi tarım uygulamalarının yasal zeminin de oluşmasına sebep olmuştur. Araştırmada bölgenin organik tarıma bakış açısının ve tüketicilerin sağlıklı, kaliteli beslenme açısından davranışlarının belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Nicel araştırma yöntemi kullanılarak yürütülen çalışmada veri toplama aracı olarak anket yönteminden yararlanılmıştır. Erzurum ili genelinde ikamet edip çalışamaya katılımı kabul eden 401 örneklemden faydalanılmıştır. Anket ifadeleri daha önce benzer çalışmalar incelenerek araştırmacı tarafından oluşturulmuştur. Anket çalışmasında Demografik ve betimsel sorular, tüketici tutum ölçeğinden yararlanılmıştır. Anket formundan elde edilen bilgiler SPSS 25 paket programından yararlanılarak analizler elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen analizlerde bağımsız örneklem t testi ve tek yönlü varyans analizi yanı sıra tamamlayıcı istatistikler kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın popülasyonu, Erzurum ilinde gıda alışverişi yapan hane halkları arasından kolayda örneklem yöntemiyle seçilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular üzerinde kapsamlı bir tartışma yapılarak, çıkan sonuçlar rapor olarak düzenlenmiştir. Hipotez sınamalarının, araştırmaya katılan tüketicilerin kimyasal girdi kullanımlarına olumsuz bakmadığı, bazı hipotez sınamalarında ise organik ürünlerin tüketiciler tarafından tercih edildikleri ve satın alındıkları sonuçlarına varılmıştır. Böylelikle elde edilen bilgiler ışığında öneriler sunulmuştur.The production efficiency rate per unit area in agriculture has been gradually increased with the development of science and technology and it is aimed to meet the food needs of the increasing world population. Additionally, the awareness of healthy and high quality nutrition in societies has also changed the expectations of agricultural production and organic agriculture has led to the formation of the legal basis of good agricultural practices. In the research study, it is aimed to determine the perspective of the region on organic agriculture and the behaviors of consumers in terms of healthy and quality nutrition. In this study carried out using the quantitative research method, the survey method was utilised as a data collection tool. It was benefited from 400 samples residing in Erzurum province and accepting participation in the study. Questionnaire statements were created by the researcher by examining similar studies performed before. Demographic questions, descriptive questions and consumer attitude scale were utilised in the survey.

The Future of Export-Based Growth Policies in the Turkish Economy: An Econometric Simulation Approach
No full textThe failure of the import substitution industrialization policies implemented in the Turkish economy between 1960 and 1980 led to the adopting of export-oriented policies for economic growth. In 1980, radical transformations were experienced in economic policies. Since 1980, exports have been attributed important meanings for sustainable economic growth. Therefore, this study analyzes the long-run and short-run relationship between exports and economic growth in the Turkish economy by using the ARDL bounds test approach with annual data sets for the period 1987-2021 and forecasts Turkey's GDP per capita for the period 2022-2032 by econometric simulation method. The ARDL model estimation results show that exports have a statistically significant and positive effect on economic growth in the short and long run. According to the forecast analysis, it has been determined that the per capita GDP in 2032 will be 17327 in the low-export scenario, and nearly double to $25157 in the high-export scenario. These results show that it is possible for the GDP per capita to nearly double in the next ten years in the Turkish economy. Still, policy components are needed to increase exports by an average of 13.86% annually to reach these figures
Determining the Effect of Foreign Trade On Employment in Turkey with Spatial Panel Data Analysis
No full textIn this study, which examines the relationship between foreign trade and employment, which is directly proportional to economic growth, the aim is to investigate the effect of import and export on employment by including neighborhood relations. In the study, while the number of insured 4a, 4b and 4c in Turkey's 81 provinces is considered as employment variable, annual import, export and population values are also considered as independent variables and the period of 2009-2020 is examined. Using the spatial econometrics application, which also includes the effect of neighborhood relations, remarkable results were obtained in the study, which was examined under three headings: spatial Durbin, spatial autoregressive and spatial error model. Models were estimated using the Maximum Likelihood (ML) method. In the study, Moran's I index was calculated to examine the convergence in employment rates between provinces. According to the model results, it was determined that there is a significant inverse relationship between exports and employment. Population variable, on the other hand, was found to have a significant relationship in the same direction with employment. A significant effect of the import variable could not be determined. When the variables of neighboring provinces were examined, it was concluded that the variables of import and employment were significant

The purpose of this research is to analyze the Religious Culture and Moral Knowledge Lesson (DKAB) questions asked in the High School Entrance System (LGS) and the related acquisitions in the curriculum in Revised Bloom's Taxonomy (YBT). While analyzing the data, document analysis, one of the qualitative research types, was preferred. The data sources of this study are the DKAB questions asked in the LGS exam between the academic years 2017- 2018, 2018-2019, 2019- 2020, 2020- 2021 and 2021-2022, the 8th grade achievements in the DKAB program published in 2010 and the new teaching for 2018. 8th grade attainments in the program.In the study, 50 DKAB questions and 25 related acquisitions were analyzed in YBT. As a result of the research; It has been concluded that the LGS exams held between 2017-2022 coincide with the achievements in the DKAB curriculum, some achievements are asked every year, while some achievements are not measured in the questions, in some years two questions are asked from one achievement, and in some years the questions asked measure two achievements. When the questions were examined in terms of knowledge dimension, it was concluded that the questions were generally at the understanding level (33 questions) in terms of cognitive process, in which it generally measured conceptual knowledge (39 questions). When the acquisitions are examined in terms of knowledge, it is generally found that they are in the conceptual knowledge dimension (18 acquisitions), and when they are examined in terms of cognitive process, they are generally in the understanding level (16 acquisitions).Therefore, when the questions and achievements are evaluated in general, it is concluded that when the conceptual knowledge and cognitive process steps of the SCT are examined in the knowledge dimension, the questions and acquisitions that are piled in the understanding level do not show a balanced distribution to the steps
The determinants of non-family employees' turnover intentions in family firms
No full textWhile research on the organisational behaviour and HRM (i.e., organisational identification, justice, commitment, and turnover intentions) in family business contexts has been advancing, the empirical investigation of non-family employees' perceptions is still scarce. Drawing upon family business-influenced literature and organisational identification, justice, and commitment theories, we explore the determinants of non-family employees' turnover intentions. Specifically, we examine the impact of non-family employees' family firm identification and perceived justice on family firm commitment, in turn affecting turnover intentions. Furthermore, we examine the moderation effects of perceived family influence on these links. Our findings demonstrate that non-family employees' family firm identification and perceived justice positively affect their family firm commitment, which in turn lowers turnover intentions. While family firm commitment mediates the relationship between family firm identification and turnover intentions, perceived family influence moderates the mediation effects of family firm commitment between family firm identification and turnover intentions

The study population comprised 400 patients with coronavirus disease 2019 who were presented to emergency departments at Ataturk University Research Hospital and Erzurum City Hospital and who agreed to participate in the study. The data were collected by the researcher via face-to-face interviews. Personal Information Form, Fagerstrom Test for Nicotine Dependence, Insomnia Severity Index, and McGill Pain Scale Short Form were used to collect the data. Descriptive statistics were presented as number, percentage, mean, and standard deviation. Parametric and nonparametric methods (t-test, Kruskal-Wallis Variance, Mann-Whitney U test, and analysis of variance were used to compare variables between the groups. Ethical approval was obtained from the relevant authority prior to data collection and oral consent was obtained from all patients. RESULTS: It was determined that 52.5% of the patients were smokers; 24% of the smokers reported a decrease in smoking after being diagnosed with coronavirus disease 2019. Nicotine addiction was found to be higher in men, tradesmen, and patients aged 55-64 years. McGill pain scale emotional sub-dimension scores were higher in women, whereas the sensory sub-dimension scores were higher in married patients. McGill pain scale total scores were higher in women, unemployed patients, and those with chronic diseases. The Insomnia Severity Index was higher in women, smokers, and patients in the age group of 65-75 years. CONCLUSION: According to the results of the present study, pain, smoking, and sleep disorders in patients diagnosed with coronavirus disease 2019 were affected by sociodemographic characteristics
Türkçe Artı İki Mümkün mü? Almanya’da Yaşayan Türk Gençlerinin Çok Dilliği
No full textKüreselleşme süreçleriyle birlikte çok dillilik tüm gelişmiş toplumlarda bir değer olarak yükselmektedir. Göç ve karşılıklı bağımlılıklar gibi nedenlerle kendileri de çok dilli olan uluslar, vatandaşlarına ana dillerinin yanına en az iki dili daha koyma çağrısında bulunarak onları bu yönde desteklemektedirler. Özellikle uluslararası göç, insanlara çok dilli olmak için önemli bir fırsat sunmaktadır. Çalışmanın nesnesi olan Almanya’da yaşayan Türk gençleri de bu ayrıcalıklı durumu yaşamaktadırlar. Onlar ebeveynlerinden aldıkları ilk dillerinin yanında, geldikleri toplumun diline ömür boyu maruz kalarak ve buna ek olarak okullarda öğretilen yabancı dillerden birini daha edinerek çok dilli olma potansiyeline sahiptirler. Bu potansiyel dilin kimlikle olan ilişkisi ile birlikte düşünüldüğünde, Türk gençleri ideal olarak kültürel benliklerini kazanmış, çok kültürlü anlayışta ulus-ötesi nitelikli bireylere dönüşebilmektedirler. Çalışmanın amacı, Almanya’da ikinci, üçüncü ve dördüncü kuşak Türk gençlerinin göçün bireylere sunduğu çok dillilik potansiyelini ne ölçüde değerlendirebildiklerini tespit etmektir. Bu doğrultuda ilgili literatür ve çok dillilik kuramları ışığında Türk gençlerinin “Türkçe artı iki” şeklinde çok dilli olma durumları değerlendirilmiştir. Alan yazını şimdiye kadar bu gurubu daha çok iki dillilik bağlamında ele alarak genelde dilin doğru kullanımı ile ilgili eksikliklere odaklanmaktadır. Bu eğilim, Türk gençlerinin dil becerilerinin toplumda negatif algılanmasına ve kimliklerinin dışlanmasına neden olmaktadır. Çalışmada elde edilen sonuçlara göre Türk gençleri, genel olarak anadilini koruma ve gelinen toplumdaki dillere açılarak kimliğini çok dilli olarak kurgulama motivasyonuna sahiptir. Ancak göç şartları ve Alman dil politikaları onları bu yönde desteklememektedir. Buna göre Türk gençleri, referans olarak seçilen çok dillilik yaklaşımlarından hiç birine göre “Türkçe artı iki” modeline göre çok dilli değildirler. Özellikle dördüncü kuşaktakiler Almanca tek dilliliğine ya da Türkçeden arındırılmış Almanca İngilizce iki dilliliğine geçiş yapmış bulunmaktadır. Diğer kuşaklar ise göçün ürettiği “yaşam dünyasal çok dillilik” tanımına göre çok dillidirler. Ancak bu çok dillilik, standart dilin dışında, resmî olarak onaylanmayan ve dolayısıyla sosyal değeri düşük bir çok dilliliktir
Investigating the impact of ICT-trade nexus on competitiveness in Eastern and Western European countries
No full textPurpose Since competitiveness is crucial in international trade, this paper contributes to the literature by interrogating the information and communication technology (ICT)-trade nexus on competitiveness in Eastern and Western European countries. Does ICT usage promote or hinder the impact of trade openness on competitiveness? This study attempts to answer two questions: (1) is the interaction of trade and ICT significant in promoting competitiveness? (2) Is the effect significantly different by European classification? Design/methodology/approach With data on 17 European countries from 2007 to 2020 and using mobile phones and fixed telephone usage as ICT indicators, the study engages the bootstrapped ordinary least squares (BOLS) and method of moments quantile regression (MM-QR) techniques to probe the discourse. Findings The empirical findings reveal that (1) the interaction of trade and ICT boost competitiveness; (2) the effect of mobile phone is consistent across the full, East, and West European samples; (3) the interaction effect is also significant across the conditional distribution of competitiveness and (4) mobile phones and fixed broadband usage reveal leapfrog effect across the quantiles. Overall, the study submits that ICT usage will enhance the impact of trade, and thus, ICT is a critical enabler of competitiveness in Europe; policy recommendations were discussed. Originality/value To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first study examining the interaction effect of trade openness and ICT usage on competitiveness in Europe. In other words, the authors attempt to analyze how ICT usage influences trade-competitiveness dynamics. To fill the gap in the literature, the authors' use a sample of 17 European countries from 2007 to 2020. The variables of interest are the competitiveness index, trade openness, and four ICT indicators (mobile phone, fixed telephone subscriptions, fixed telephone subscriptions, and Internet users)
Isothiocyanates as drug candidates in cancer prevention and treatment
No full textCancer is the second most common cause of death worldwide. Many methods such as surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, etc. are being used for treatment. Most patients have a combination treatment with chemotherapy along with surgery or radiotherapy or both. Chemotherapy kills cancer cells by preventing them from reproducing, growing, and spreading in the body. Recently, safer alternatives to chemotherapy have been discovered and developed, as most of the drugs used in cancer treatment have side effects and a serious impact on patient comfort. As an alternative, the phytochemicals found in daily consumed plants are attractive candidates for clinical/pre-clinical evaluation because of their higher safety. In this context, certain degradation products of glucosinolates (isothiocyanates) are promising agents for cancer prevention and treatment. © 2023, IGI Global. All rights reserved
