The Moderating Role of Organizational Identification on the Relationship between Perceived Organizational Career Management and Intention to Leave
No full textThe available literature suggests that perceived organizational career management is seen as an antecedent of intention to leave and organizational identification is considered to be superior in predicting employees’ turnover intentions. Thus, this study aims at investigating the effect of perceived organizational career management on intention to leave and to determine the moderating role of organizational identification in this relation. The data was collected from 256 employees from the banking sector in the city of Istanbul, Turkey. Hierarchical regression analysis was employed to the gathered data to test the hypotheses developed for the study. The results indicated that perceived organizational career management correlated negatively with intention to leave. It was also found out that organizational identification served as a moderator for the relationship between POCM and intention to leave. Thus, the results point out that the effect of employees’ perceived organizational career management on their intention to leave varies when they identify themselves with their organizations.</jats:p
Diverticulum With Papillae: Does Position of Papilla Affect Technical Success?
No full textBasis and Purpose:The presence of peripapillary diverticulum (PPD) can cause some biliary diseases, especially common bile duct stones, and also, literally, can change the technique of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and affect the complication ratio of this procedure. In this study, we investigate the effect of localization and position of the papilla according to the diverticulum on the success of therapeutic ERCP procedures.Materials and Methods:The study was conducted prospectively in the patients with naive papillae, who underwent ERCP for a period of 16 months. In all patients, the position of papillae according to the diverticulum (the periphery of the diverticulum is thought as the clock circumference, and the position of papillae is defined as the dials of clock), the success rate of biliary cannulation, total procedure time, overall treatment success rate of ERCP, and the complications are investigated.Results:During this period, 222 (18.5%) of the 1205 enrolled patients who underwent ERCP had PPD. Of the patients with PPD, 123 (55.4%) were female and 99 (44.6%) were male, and the median age was 68.910.1 years. According to the position of the papilla by the diverticulum, 90 (40.5%) patients have it on 7 o'clock position, 64 (28.8%) patients have on 6 o'clock position, 63 (28.3%) patients have on 5 o'clock position, and 5 (2.3%) patients have on 1 o'clock position. In the cases of the papilla on 1 o'clock position according to the diverticulum, cannulation procedures were found to be more difficult than other patients (P<0.05). The presence of the diverticulum did not affect the success of therapeutic procedures and did not increase the ratio of complications.Conclusions:In the presence of PPD, additional cannulation techniques may be required for the procedure. Particularly, the aid of percutaneous techniques may be needed for the papilla on 1 o'clock position

THE INFLUENCE OF SPORTS HOTEL EMPLOYEES'POLITICAL SKILL ON ROLE STRESS: THE MODERATING ROLE OF SELF-EFFICACY
Get PDFPolitical skill is one of the most important personal resources that employees have. The presence of political skill can cause employees to manage situations such as conflict, ambiguity and overload caused by their roles more effectively. In addition, depending on whether self-efficacy is high or low, the strength of the influence between the relevant variables may increase or decrease. In this context, the study's main purpose is to investigate the moderating role of self-efficacy in the effect of political skill on employees' role stress. The study population of the study consists of those working in sports tourism hotels. The data obtained from 308 sports tourism hotel employees were analyzed with the help of SPSS and Smart PLS programs. According to the findings, it was determined that political skill did not significantly negatively affect role stress and its sub-dimensions, such as role conflict, role overload and role ambiguity. However, when the analysis was made on the moderating role variable, it was revealed that self-efficacy had a moderating role in the effect of political skill on role conflict and role overload among the sub-dimensions of role stress. The findings were discussed in the last part of the study, and suggestions for future research were presented

An unsaturated-soils approach to the bearing capacity of foundation structures
Get PDFUnsaturated soils are maintaining their importance for researchers and there is still much need to investigate the many engineering aspects of these soils. A new technique is proposed here to predict the variation of the bearing capacity of unsaturated soils with matric suction. The proposed method is an extension of conventional bearing-capacity theories and conceptually based on the logarithmic model of the shear strength of unsaturated soils, which only include one unknown, unsaturated parameter (the airentry value, AEV). The possibility of predicting the unsaturated bearing capacity of soils is shown by the saturated effective shear-strength parameters c\u27 and Ø\u27 and the AEV from the soil-water retention curve (SWRC). Considering the necessity of validating new methods with other researchers’ data, the proposed equation is tested using the published unsaturated experimental study by the author, in addition to some reported experimental studies on the shear strength for unsaturated soils and also a model footing loading on unsaturated sand under controlled suction conditions. The results of the study indicate that there is a good comparison between the “unsaturated bearing capacities” obtained via predicted and measured unsaturated strength parameters (ctotal , Ø) and also between the measured/ calculated bearing values of a model footing loading. Consequently, it is shown that, without needing complex unsaturated testing facilities, the proposed equation is capable of predicting the unsaturated bearing capacity for both fine-grained and sandy soils, requiring only one unsaturated parameter, which can be obtained from the SWRC or predicted using the basic soil-index properties

The Effect of the Harmony between Organizational Culture and Values on Job Satisfaction
No full textIn this study, the effect of the harmony between organizational culture and values on job satisfaction is examined. Hierarchical regression analysis was applied to the data, which was obtained from the study conducted on 181 employees working in a private hospital in Istanbul. The result of the analysis shows that value-culture variation in which employees will have the highest job satisfaction is the traditionalist/conservative values-clan culture. The second most successful value-culture variation on job satisfaction is the impulsive/hedonistic values-adhocracy culture. In other words, it is predicted that job satisfaction will be high when an employee with traditionalist/conservative values works in an organization where clan culture is important, and an employee with impulsive/hedonistic values works in an organization where adhocracy culture is important. The most negative impacts on job satisfaction are impulsive/hedonistic values-clan culture and precautionary values-market culture. In other words, it can be said that an employee with impulsive/hedonistic values will be unhappy in clan culture, and an employee with precautionary values will be unhappy in market culture.</jats:p
Primerjava ocenjene telesne maščobe z dvema različnima metodama pri mladih rokoborcih
Get PDFThe purpose of the study was to compare the estimation of body fatness with two different equations, using skinfold and body neck and waist circumference in young wrestlers. One hundred and ten wrestlers (age:14.5 ± 1.2 years) voluntarily participated in the study and were divided into two categories based on body weight percentile scores (thin and heavy). Body composition analyses were determined by using two field methods, one of these was the skinfold method including the abdomen, subscapular, and triceps regions, and the other method was the indirect body composition determination using waist, and neck circumferences using the equations. The results showed that there were significant differences between the calculation results of equations for both the thin group and also heavy group. However, while the rate of error difference in the calculations of the two equations obtained from skinfold and body circumference measurements was low in the heavy group (Standard estimation mistake (SEM) Range;2.6 %BF – Difference 16.5%), it was significantly higher in the thin group (SEM Range; 4.7 %BF - Difference 51.6%). The Skinfold equation was significantly underestimated for both groups when compared to the circumferential equation results. The findings showed that the field methods used in this study could be insufficient and, misleading to determine the body composition of young candidate wrestlers.Namen študije je bil primerjati oceno telesne maščobe pri mladih rokoborcih z dvema različnima enačbama z uporabo kožne gube ter obsega vratu. V študiji je prostovoljno sodelovalo 110 rokoborcev (starost: 14.5 ± 1.2 leta), ki so bili glede na percentilne ocene telesne teže razdeljeni v dve kategoriji (vitki in težki). Analize telesne sestave so bile določene z uporabo dveh terenskih metod, od katerih je bila ena metoda kožnih gub, ki je vključevala področje trebuha, hrbta (subscapularis) in nadlahti, druga metoda pa je bila posredno določanje telesne sestave s pomočjo obsega pasu in vratu z uporabo enačb. Rezultati so pokazali, da so obstajale pomembne razlike med rezultati izračunov z enačbami tako za vitko kot tudi za težko skupino rokoborcev. Medtem ko je bila stopnja razlike napak pri izračunih obeh enačb, pridobljenih z meritvami kožnih gub in telesnih obsegov, pri težki skupini nizka (standardna napaka srednje vrednosti (SEM) razpon; 2.6 % BF - razlika 16.5 %), pa je bila pri vitki skupini bistveno večja (SEM razpon; 4.7 % BF - razlika 51.6 %). V primerjavi z rezultati enačbe obsegov je bila enačba kožnih gub pri obeh skupinah bistveno podcenjena. Ugotovitve so pokazale, da so lahko terenske metode, uporabljene v tej študiji, nezadostne in zavajajoče za določanje telesne sestave mladih kandidatov za rokoborce
