Get PDFEğitim Bilimleri Enstitüsü, Türkçe ve Sosyal Bilimler Eğitimi Ana Bilim Dalı, Türkçe Eğitimi Bilim DalıBu araştırmada Türkçe öğretmenlerinin yaşantılarına zaman dizinsel bakış açısıyla odaklanarak onların sanatsal nitelikli uyaran kullanımlarının nasıl biçimlendiğini ortaya koymak amaçlanmıştır. Nitel araştırma desenlerinden anlatı araştırması kullanılarak yürütülen bu araştırmada Türkçe öğretmenlerinin sanatsal uyaran kullanıp kullanmama durumunu belirleyen etkenlere ve uyaranları kullanma biçimlerine yönelik deneyimlerine odaklanılmıştır. Çalışma grubunu belirlemek için maksimum çeşitliliği sağlamaya yönelik amaçlı örneklemeden yararlanılmıştır. Bu kapsamda Niğde, Tokat, Balıkesir, Ankara ve İstanbul'da görev yapan 12 Türkçe öğretmeni ile derinlemesine görüşmeler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu görüşmelerde yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formları kullanılarak anlatı araştırmasının çeşitlerinden hayat hikâyesi yaklaşımı çerçevesinde öğretmenlerin anlatılarının dönüşümü irdelenmiştir. İlk görüşmelerden sonra öğretmenlerden dört hafta boyunca öğretmenlikle ilgili her türlü bilgi ve deneyimlerini paylaşabilecekleri bir günlük tutmaları istenmiştir. Ardından ilk görüşmedeki anlatıların günlüklere yansımalarını değerlendirmek için öğretmenlerle ikinci görüşmeler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Görüşmeler ve günlüklerden elde edilen veriler MAXQDA 2022 nitel veri çözümleme programının yardımıyla analiz edilmiştir. Araştırma bulguları, kişisel hayatında sanata yer veren veya öğrenim yaşantısında sanatın Türkçe dersiyle ilişkisini kavrayan öğretmenlerin sanatsal uyaranlar kullanarak ders işlediğini ortaya koymuştur. Ayrıca puanla alınan nitelikli liselere öğrenci yerleştirme kaygısı, öğretmenlerin dilbilgisi konularına öncelik vererek Türkçe dersini işlemesine neden olduğu için sanatsal uyaran kullanımının ikinci planda kaldığı tespit edilmiştir. Bununla birlikte sanatsal nitelikli uyaran kullanan öğretmenlerin dahi Türkçe dersinde uyaranları alanyazında ele alındığı gibi kullanmadıkları, lisansüstü eğitim almalarına rağmen kendilerini bu konuda yetersiz hissettikleri ve sanatsal uyaranların odağında metin işleme süreci konusunda iyi uygulamalara ihtiyaç duydukları belirlenmiştir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Türkçe öğretimi, Türkçe öğretmenleri, sanatsal nitelikli uyaran, anlatı araştırması.In this research, by focusing on the experiences of Turkish language processing from a chronological perspective, it is revealed how their use of artistic simple stimuli is shaped. This research, which was conducted using narrative research, one of the qualitative research designs, focused on the factors that determine whether Turkish teachers use artistic stimuli or not and their experiences regarding the ways they use stimuli. To determine the study group, purposeful sampling was used to ensure maximum diversity. In this context, in-depth interviews were held with 12 Turkish teachers working in Niğde, Tokat, Balıkesir, Ankara and Istanbul. In these interviews, semi-structured interview forms were used to examine the transformation of teachers' narratives within the framework of the life story approach, one of the types of narrative research. After the first interviews, teachers were asked to keep a diary in which they could share all their knowledge and experiences about teaching for four weeks. Then, second interviews were held with the teachers to evaluate the reflections of the narratives in the first interview on the diaries. Data obtained from interviews and diaries were analyzed with the help of MAXQDA 2022 qualitative data analysis program. Research findings revealed that teachers who include art in their personal lives or who understand the relationship of art with Turkish lessons in their educational life teach using artistic stimuli. In addition, it has been determined that the use of artistic stimuli remains in the background because the anxiety of placing students in qualified high schools with scores causes teachers to teach Turkish lessons by giving priority to grammar subjects. However, it has been determined that even teachers who use artistic stimuli do not use stimuli in Turkish lessons as discussed in the literature, they feel inadequate in this regard despite receiving postgraduate education, and they need good practices in the text processing process in the focus of artistic stimuli. Key Words: Turkish education, Turkish teachers, artistic stimulus, narrative research
Effects of tape thickness on the fabrication and performance of microtubular solid oxide fuel cells manufactured by tape casting
Get PDFThe role of tape thickness in the fabrication of microtubular anode supports for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) by tape casting and isostatic pressing is investigated in this study. The anode support slurry of the same formulation is tape cast by varying the doctor blade gap (DBG) from 100 mu m to 700 mu m and the obtained tapes are wrapped at different lengths on a metal pin of 5 mm in diameter, while the appropriate tape length for each DBG is decided by considering anode support microtubes with a similar geometry for a reasonable comparison. The analyses reveal that the microstructure of the anode support microtube varies depending on DBG and in general delamination and crack formations occur in the supports at high DBGs. The resultant porosity and pore/grain sizes are also found to be different depending on DBG. Therefore, the supports and the cells with these supports show different mechanical and electrochemical performances. In this regard, DBG of 300 mu m provides microtubular anode supports without any microstructural problems. The microtubular cell built on this support also exhibits the highest peak performance of 0.313 Wcm(-2) at an operating temperature of 800 degrees C under 300 sccm hydrogen flow and open cathode condition.Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkiye (TUBITAK) [222M185]The equipment and material support of this research by The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkiye (TUBITAK) under a project number of 222M185 is gratefully acknowledged
Investigation of Phase Transformation and Fracture Pattern as a Result of Long-Term Chewing Simulation and Static Loading of Reduced-Diameter Zirconia Implants
Get PDFWhile zirconia implants exhibit osseointegration comparable to that of titanium, concerns arise regarding low-temperature degradation and its potential impact on fracture strength. This study investigated the phase transformation and fracture characteristics of zirconia dental implants after aging through chewing simulation and subsequent static loading. The experimental setup involved 48 one-piece monobloc zirconia implants with diameters of 3.0 mm and 3.7 mm that had straight or angled abutments, with crown restorations, which were divided into six groups based on intraoral regions. The specimens underwent chewing simulation equal to five years of oral service, which was followed by static loading. Statistical analyses were performed for the data obtained from the tests. After dynamic and static loadings, the fractured samples were investigated by Raman spectroscopy to analyze the phase composition and micro-CT to evaluate fracture surfaces and volume changes. According to the results, narrow-diameter zirconia implants have low mechanical durability. The fracture levels, fracture patterns, total porosity, and implant fracture volume values varied according to the implant diameter and phase transformation grade. It was concluded that phase transformation initially guides the propagation of microcracks in zirconia implants, enhancing fracture toughness up to a specific threshold; however, beyond that point, it leads to destructive consequences
Rheological properties of model emulsions containing oleosomes
Get PDFIn the presented research, oleosomes were obtained from unroasted hazelnuts in an aqueous environment with a pH of 9.5, adjusted using sodium bicarbonate. Model emulsions were then prepared to contain oleosomes in proportions of 15, 25, and 35%. Rheological and viscosity analyses were conducted on these model emulsions, focusing on elastic and viscous modulus values. The results of the analyses, which revealed that an increase in the oleosome content in the model emulsions correlated with a concurrent increase in emulsion viscosity as well as in the elastic (G') and viscous (G'') moduli, demonstrate the significant impact of oleosome concentration on the rheological properties of the emulsions. All samples exhibited a G' > G'' relationship, indicating their semi-solid nature. Moreover, an increase in the oleosome content was found to result in a higher consistency index for the product, while the flow index remained largely unchanged.Scientific Research Projects Unit of Nigde Omer Halisdemir University [TGT 2020/8-BAGEP]This study was supported by the Scientific Research Projects Unit of Nigde Omer Halisdemir University (Project No: TGT 2020/8-BAGEP)
Kanser Hastalarına Sunulan Psikososyal Hizmetler ve Hemşirelerin Psikososyal Değerlendirme ve Müdahalede Yaşadığı Zorluklar: Ülke Çapında Bir Araştırma
Get PDFObjective: The study mainly aims to determine the current state of psychosocial services offered to cancer patients and the views of nurses regarding the ways to meet patients' psychosocial needs. Other aims to evaluate barriers to meeting patients' psychosocial needs and measure nurses' difficulty level of psychosocial assessment and intervention practices. Methods: This multicenter, cross-sectional study was conducted with 1189 nurses providing direct care to adult cancer patients in 32 hospitals in 12 geographical regions of T & uuml;rkiye. The data were collected by a survey prepared in accordance with the aims of the study. Results: Three-quarters of the participants reported that their hospital has psychosocial support services while 67.7% stated that this service was provided by psychiatry consultation. Nearly half (49%) stated that all healthcare professionals are responsible for meeting patients' psychosocial needs, especially it is an integral part of their nursing duties. However, organizational conditions (48.2%-30.7%) are the most important barriers to meeting the psychosocial needs of the patients. Participants have difficulty mostly in assessing and intervening in psychosocial needs of patients mostly in sexual problems and rejection of treatment, and least in patients' reactions to illness. Also, the participants have more difficulty in assessing seven of the 19 psychosocial dimensions and intervening in five ( P< .05). Conclusion: This study may be contributed to better structuring of psychosocial services in T & uuml;rkiye. It can also guide the planning of psychosocial care training. Institutional barriers need to be overcome, especially the nurse-patient ratio, and the psychosocial care capacity of nurses should be improved.Vehbi Koc Foundation Nursing Fund, in Istanbul, Turkey [2016.2-2]This work was supported by the Vehbi Koc Foundation Nursing Fund, in Istanbul, Turkey [grant number 2016.2-2]

The evaluation of the Victory Party's refugee policy within the context of perception management
Get PDFSosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü, Avrasya Araştırmaları Ana Bilim DalıSiyasette algı yönetimi, son dönemde öne çıkan popüler konulardan biridir. Ancak popüler olması siyasal alandaki uygulanabilirliğinin kolay olduğu anlamına gelmemektedir. Türkiye'de Yargıtay kayıtlarına göre 130 siyasi parti olduğu düşünüldüğünde, 2002'den bu yana tek bir partinin seçim başarısı kazanması ve iktidarda olması, konunun uygulanması profesyonellik gerektiren yöntemleri olduğunu göstermektedir. Sığınmacı sorunu da son dönemde öne çıkan popüler konulardan biridir. Ancak popüler olması yine çözümünün kolay olduğu anlamına gelmemektedir. Türkiye Cumhuriyeti'nin 2010 yılı sonrasında tarihinde görülmemiş büyüklükte bir göç akınıyla karşılaşması siyasal, ekonomik ve sosyal yönden ciddi problemleri beraberinde getirmiştir. Bu durum, Türk siyasetinde göç karşıtlığını kurumsal düzeyde konumlandıran bir siyasal partinin doğmasına zemin hazırlamıştır. Zafer Partisi, bu anlamda Türk siyasetinde bir ilki temsil etmektedir. Zafer Partisi, sığınmacı sorunu üzerinden oluşturduğu politik bakış açısı sayesinde kısa sürede bir rüzgâr yakalamış, etkili bir kamuoyu oluşturmuştur. Bu doğrultuda ortaya konulan parti politikaları, 2023 seçimlerinin ikinci turunda muhalefet politikalarıyla özdeşlemiştir. Bu çalışmada Zafer Partisi'nin kamuoyunda etkili bir şekilde taban bulan sığınmacı politikası ve bu politikanın algı yönetimi bağlamında değerlendirilmesi yapılmaktadır. Zafer Partisi Genel Başkanı Ümit Özdağ'ın sığınmacılarla ilgili tweetleri ele alınmış bunlar üzerinden ortaya koyulan söylemlerin algı yönetimi niteliğine sahip olup olmadığı incelenmiştir. Bu doğrultuda yöntem olarak A. Teun van Dijk'in eleştirel söylem analizi yöntemi tercih edilmiş, twitlerin incelenme sürecinde ayrıca Zafer Partisi Genel Başkanı Prof. Dr. Ümit Özdağ ile yapılan yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme verileri de kullanılmıştır. Bir siyasal başarının ötesinde etkin bir algı yönetimi stratejisi izlendiği sonucuna ulaşılan çalışmada, Zafer Partisi'nin siyasetteki konumlanması da geniş bir perspektiften incelenmeye çalışılmıştır.

However, its popularity does not mean that its applicability in the political arena is easy. Considering that there are 130 political parties in Turkey according to the records of the Court of Cassation, the fact that a single party has won the elections and has been in power since 2002 shows that the subject requires professionalism to implement. The issue of asylum-seekers is another popular issue that has come to the fore recently. However, its popularity does not mean that it is easy to solve. After 2010, the Republic of Turkey faced an unprecedented influx of migrants, which brought with it serious political, economic and social problems. This situation paved the way for the emergence of a political party that positioned anti-immigration at the institutional level in Turkish politics. In this sense, Zafer Party represents a first in Turkish politics. Thanks to its political perspective on the asylum-seeker problem, Zafer Party has caught a wind in a short time and created an effective public opinion. The party policies put forward in this direction were identified with the opposition policies in the second round of 2023 elections. In this study, the asylum seeker policy of Zafer Party, which has an effective base in the public opinion, and the evaluation of this policy in the context of perception management are analyzed. The tweets of Zafer Party Chairman Ümit Özdağ on asylum seekers are analyzed and it is examined whether the discourses put forward through these tweets have the quality of perception management. In this direction, A. Teun van Dijk's critical discourse analysis method was preferred as a method, and semi-structured interview data with Zafer Party Chairman Prof. Dr. Ümit Özdağ was also used in the process of analyzing the tweets. In the study, which concludes that an effective perception management strategy was followed beyond a political success, the positioning of Zafer Party in politics was also analyzed from a broad perspective.

Impacto del uso de las redes sociales en la depresión en pacientes con espondilitis anquilosante: Resultados de un estudio transversal
Get PDFIntroduction: Social media is a powerful tool in providing information and support for patients with chronic diseases. The aim was to assess the link between using social media and depression in a sample population of Turkish ankylosing spondylitis (AS) patients. Materials and methods: The patients completed a self-administered questionnaire, which was designed by the authors. Their demographic data, educational status, diagnosis, and favorite social network were also recorded. The Beck Depression Inventory-IA amended (revised) (BDI-IA-Turkish) was used to screen the AS patients for depression. Results: A total of 155 AS patients were included in the study. The depression scores of the patients who used the Internet (12.18 ± 6.85) and social media (12.35 ± 6.90) were compared with those who did not (27.19 ± 10.51 vs. 25.20 ± 11.66) and a significant difference (p ? 0.001) was found. Smartphone users were in the majority (73.5%). WhatsApp was the preferred social network (66.5%), followed by Facebook (52.9%), Instagram (52.3%), Twitter (19.4%) and Pinterest (5.8%). Social media users and non-users were similar in age, gender, educational level and marital status. There were no significant differences in terms of the type and duration of social media use with depression score. Conclusion: The results of this cross-sectional study confirmed that using social media can help patients with AS to cope with or be less affected by depression. Finding the most appropriate and commonly used form of social media may be an important concept for stewardship in health policies. © 2022 Asociación Colombiana de Reumatologí
Editing of banana, apple, and grapevine genomes using the CRISPR-Cas9 system
Get PDFAmong horticultural crops, fruits have an essential place since they are key sources of nutrients such as essential vitamins and minerals, and fruit production is crucial for the economy since it has a large market globally. Apple, banana, and grapevine are highly demanded fruit crops for consumers and producers; therefore, it is no surprise that these fruits are also subjects of molecular studies. Following the publication of the apple, banana, and grapevine genomes, molecular studies in these fruits became more feasible via the utilization of next-generation sequencing (NGS), high-quality de novo assembly, transgenics, and finally, genome editing by CRISPR-Cas9. Currently, the application of advanced genome-editing techniques such as CRISPR-Cas systems pave the way for basic and applied research on apple, banana, and grapevine in a rapid and precise way. With the improvement of CRISPR technologies such as base editing, prime editing, and different types of Cas proteins, the development of new superior cultivars with desirable traits will be possible in the future. © 2024 Elsevier Inc.

Analysis of antibiotic resistance of KPC-2-positive Klebsiella pneumoniae strains isolated from blood cultures in Van, Turkey
Get PDFOBJECTIVE: Recently, Klebsiella pneumoniae strains causing bacteremia and showing significant antibiotic resistance have raised serious health concerns. Especially carbapenem-resistant K. pneumoniae has spread worldwide and caused an increase in mortality rates. In this study, we aimed to present information about KPC-2 carriage and molecular characteristics of K. pneumoniae strains showing multiple antibiotic resistance among patients in our hospital. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Blood samples were collected from patients hospitalized in the intensive care units (ICU) of Van Regional Training and Research Hospital between 2020-2021. Culture, biochemical tests, antibiotic susceptibility tests, and molecular tests were performed to identify K. pneumoniae strains isolated from blood culture samples. RESULTS: Two hundred and sixteen K. pneumoniae were isolated from patients with positive blood cultures. Twenty-seven of these isolates showed multidrug resistance. Carbapenem, ?-lactam, and quinolone resistance were particularly high. On the contrary, almost all of these isolates were susceptible to Amikacin (AK), Gentamicin (CN), Colistin (CT) and Tigecycline (TGC). Molecular analysis revealed that all of these isolates were KPC-2-positive and ST11 variants. CONCLUSIONS: It was observed that KPC-2positive K. pneumoniae strains with multi-drug resistance may pose a serious risk in patients hospitalized in ICU in our hospital. It was concluded that surveillance and personnel training regarding the hospital and community-acquired infections due to these isolates that show pandemic spread would be important. © 2024 Verduci Editore s.r.l.
