    Milli mücadele konulu roman ve hikâyelerde kahramanların yaşadığı psikolojik değişim ve dönüşüm

    No full text
    Milli Mücadele yılları, Türk tarihinde her zaman önemini koruyacak bir devredir. Bu dönem,tarihsel önemi ve sunduğu kurgusal malzeme dolayısıyla Türk edebiyatında da önemli bir yazın alanı açmıştır. Gerçek yaşamda olduğu gibi edebiyat anlatılarında da bu tarihsel süreç;fedakârlıkları, travmaları ve maruz kaldıkları acılar sebebiyle bireylerde psikolojik anlamda değişimlere neden olmuştur. Bu travmatik yaşantılar bazen olumlu bazen de olumsuz dönüşümleri tetiklemiştir. Benzer bir dönüşüm toplum düzeyinde de sosyal, siyasi ve ekonomik değerlerin değişimiyle gerçekleşmiştir. Kahramanların yaşadıkları travmatik durumlar çoğunlukla travma sonrası stres bozukluğuna yol açmıştır. Bazen de akut stres bozukluğu veya travma sonrası hayata küsme bozukluğu biçiminde seyretmiştir. Travma sonrası stres bozukluğu belirtileri gösteren karakterlerde psikoloji biliminde olduğu gibi genellikle depresyon ve yorgunluk da görülmüştür. Benzer yaşantılar bireylerde her zaman aynı sonuçları doğurmadığı için bazı bireylerde psikolojide olduğu gibi travma sonrası gelişim yaşanmış, bazı bireylerde ise travma oluşmamıştır. Toplumu etkileyen savaş, göç, soykırım, doğal afet gibi felaketler toplumsal travmaya neden olabilmektedir. Korku, kaygı ve panik hali, ahlâki çöküş, depresyon ve sosyal değerlerin yitimi ile karakterize olan toplumsal travma; roman ve hikâyelerde de oldukça benzer biçimde görülmektedir. Tezde roman ve hikâyelerde tespit edilen travmatik unsurlar, kahramanlarda ve toplumda yarattığı değişimle birlikte verilmiştir.The years of the War of Independence is a period that will always remain important in Turkish history. This period has opened an important literary field in Turkish literature due to its historical importance and the fictional material it offers. In literary narratives, as in real life, this historical process caused psychological changes in individuals due to their sacrifices, traumas and the pain they were exposed to. These traumatic experiences have sometimes triggered positive and sometimes negative transformations. A similar transformation has taken place at the level of society through changes in social, political and economic values. The traumatic experiences of the protagonists often led to post-traumatic stres disorder. Sometimes it took the form of acute stres disorderor post-traumatic resignation disorder. Characters who showed symptoms of post-traumatic stres disorder often also suffered from depression and fatigue, as in psychology. Since similar experiences do not always produce the same results in individuals, some individuals have experienced post-traumatic development, as in psychology, while others have not been traumatized. Disasters such as war, migration, genocide, natural disasters affecting the society can cause social trauma. Social trauma, which is characterized by fear, anxiety and panic, moral collapse, depression and loss of social values, is seen in novels and stories in a very similar way. The traumatic elements identified in the thesis and the changes they cause in the protagonists and society

    Uluslararası Liderlik Çalışmaları Dergisi: Kuram ve UygulamaInternational Journal of Leadership Studies : Theory and PracticeCovid-19 salgını ile birlikte uzaktan çalışma modellerinin yaygınlaşmasıyla sanal örgüt sayılarının sürekli artması bilgi teknolojileri ile yönetim bilişim sistemlerinin iş süreçlerinde etkin bir şekilde kullanılmasını sağlamıştır. Bu durum, günümüzde dijital dönüşüm sürecinin öncüsü olan dijital liderliği bilimsel yayınlarda sıklıkla incelenen bir kavram haline getirmiştir. Bu araştırmanın amacı, 2004-2022 yılları arasında “dijital liderlik” kavramına yönelik yapılan bilimsel yayınların içerik analizini yaparak ilgili literatüre holistik bir bakış açısı sunmaktır. Bu doğrultuda, araştırmada öncelikle Web of Science veri tabanı kullanılarak dijital liderlik konusunda yapılan 134 bilimsel yayın bibliyometrik analiz yöntemi ile irdelenmiş, ardından elde edilen veriler VOSviewer yazılım programı kullanılarak görselleştirilmiştir. Bibliyometrik analizler sonucunda, bibliyometrik liderlik konusunda en çok makale türünde yayına ulaşılmış ve özellikle 2019 yılından sonra yapılan yayınlarda artış olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Yayınların ağırlıklı olarak yönetim alanında yapıldığı belirlenen araştırma sonuçlarında; en üretken ülkenin Almanya, en çok atıf alan yazarın El Sawy, Kraemmergaard, Amsinck ve Vinther (2016), en çok kullanılan anahtar kelimenin ise dijital dönüşüm olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır. Analiz neticesinde ulaşılan sonuçların araştırma konusuna dair gelecekteki çalışmalara kaynak sağlayacağı ve dijital liderlik konusunda yayınlanmış çalışmalar ile yakın gelecekte araştırma faaliyetlerinin odağı olmaya aday konulara yönelik araştırmacılara katkı sağlayacağı düşünülmektedir.With the Covid-19 epidemic's spread of remote working models, the continuous rise in the number of virtual organisations has enabled the effective use of information technologies and management information systems in business processes. Because to this circumstance, the idea of digital leadership—which is the forerunner of the digital transformation process—is widely discussed in academic papers. The goal of this study is to present a comprehensive view of the relevant literature by analysing the content of scientific publications on the concept of digital leadership published between 2004 and 2022. In this direction, 134 scientific publications on digital leadership were examined with the bibliometric analysis method using the Web of Science database, and the results were visualised using the VOSviewer software programme. According to bibliometric analyses, the most publications in the form of articles on bibliometric leadership were discovered, and there was an increase in publications, particularly after 2019. The research found that the majority of publications were in the field of management; Germany was the most productive country, El Sawy, Kraemmergaard, Amsinck, and Vinther (2016) was the most cited author, and digital transformation was the most used keyword. It is expected that the findings of the analysis will serve as a foundation for future research on the subject and will inform researchers about topics that are likely to be the focus of research activities in the near future, based on the published studies on digital leadership

    Bu çalışma, Beyza Ertem’in Prof. Dr. Ali Şükrü Çoruk danışmanlığında yürütülmüş olan yüksek lisans tezinden üretilmiştir. -- İstanbul Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü Türk Dili ve Edebiyatı Anabilim Dalı Doktora Öğrencisi, [email protected], https://orchid.org/ 0000-0002-5511-668XGerçeklik, bir kavram olarak, tarih boyunca felsefenin ve sanatın temel meselelerinden biri olmuştur. Dolayısıyla, edebi metinleri şekillendiren unsurlardan biri de yazarın gerçeğe yaklaşım tarzıdır. Çağımızın önde gelen yazarlarından biri olan Hasan Ali Toptaş’ın romanlarında yer alan meselelerin birçoğu doğrudan gerçeklik algısıyla ilişkilidir. Bu nedenle bu metinler, gerçeklik odağında farklı yaklaşımlara açık metinlerdir. Toptaş’ın romanlarında yer alan gerçeklik algısının incelendiği bu çalışmada, yazarın yedi romanı üzerine, karşılaştırma metodu kullanılarak değerlendirmeler yapılmıştır. Gerçeklik kavramı söz konusu olduğunda, metinlerde yer alan tüm meseleler bir şekilde çalışmanın konusu olmaktadır. Bu nedenle bu çalışmada, metinlerde ortak bir şekilde yer alan ve tekrar eden meseleler esas alınmıştır. Kurmaca ile gerçeklik ilişkisi irdelenirken sanat ve edebiyat tarihinde gerçeklik ve gerçekçilik hakkındaki türlü yönelimler göz önünde tutulmuştur. Her roman, kendi muhtevasına ve yapısına uygun bir sistemle ele alınmıştır. Elde edilen veriler ışığında, yazarın romanlarında yer alan gerçeklik algısıyla ilişkili meseleler, üç ana başlık belirlenerek ve bu başlıklar altında yazarın romanlarından öne çıkan örnekler verilerek özetlenmiştir. Yapılan değerlendirmelerin akabinde, Hasan Ali Toptaş’ın romanlarında kurmaca ile gerçeklik arasındaki ilişki ağının okurun zihninde çözmesi gereken bir mesele/bir bilmece olarak yer aldığı, yazarın metinlerarasılık, üstkurmaca, oyun gibi ögeleri gerçeklik algısıyla ilişkili bir biçimde metinlerinde sıklıkla kullandığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Ayrıca belirsizliğin, yazarın birçok romanında doğrudan kurguyu şekillendirdiği saptanmıştır. Sonuç kısmında, elde edilen verilerin analizi yapılmış ve yazarın romanları hakkında çalışma yapmak isteyen araştırmacılara önerilerde bulunulmuştur.During history, reality as a concept has been the fundamental issue of philosophy and art. Therefore, one of the elements that shape literary texts is the author's approach to reality. Many of the issues in the novels of Hasan Ali Toptaş, one of the leading writers of our time, are directly related to the perception of reality. Hence, these texts are open to different approaches in the context of reality. In this study, which examined the perception of reality in Toptaş's novels, have been assessed the seven novels of the author using the method of comparison. When it mentioned to the concept of reality, all the issues in the texts are somehow the subject of study. For this reason, in this study, recurring issues that are common in the texts were handled. While determining the relationship between fiction and reality, various approaches about reality and realism in the history of art and literature were taken into consideration. Each novel was handled with a system that is convenient for its content and structure. In the light of the information obtained, the issues related to the perception of reality in the novels of the author were summarized by identifying three main titles and giving examples that stand out from the novels of the author under these titles. Following the assessments, it has been concluded that the network of the relationship between fiction and reality in Hasan Ali Toptaş's novels is an issue /a riddle that should be solved in the mind of the reader, and the author frequently uses elements such as intertextuality, metafiction, play in relation to the perception of reality. In addition, uncertainty has been found to directly shape fiction in many of the author's novels. In the conclusion part, the analysis of the information obtained was made and suggestions were made to the researchers who wanted to study the author's novels

    Kullanıcıların iç mekânı kullanırken o mekândan aldıkları veya algıladıkları değerler önemli yer tutar. Bu değerler mekândaki tasarım ve yüzeyler sayesinde gerçekleşir. İç mimarlık ve mekân kavramının temel unsurunu oluşturan malzeme ve çeşitlerinin kullanım değerlerinin bilinmesi gerekmektedir. Yapı konstrüksiyon malzemesi ve tasarım ögesi ahşap, doğadan direk elde edilebilen, çok rahatlıkla işlenebilen, sürdürülebilir özelliği taşıyan, mekânda sıcak ve karakteristik algı yaratarak mekâna değer kazandıran, en küçük ağaç temelli malzemelerin bir araya getirilmesiyle bile ahşap kökenli farklı bir malzeme çeşidini sunabilen, kullanım değeri yüksek bir malzemedir. Ahşap; akustik değeri olan, iletken olmayışı, rengi-kokusu ve dokusuyla diğer malzemelerden ayrılan özel bir malzeme olması, estetik açıdan zenginlik kazandırması, kullanıldığı alana maddi anlamda kalite yaratması, sıcak ve renkli görüntüsüyle psikolojik etkileri olan algı değeri taşıyan bir malzeme olması, sağlık açısından kaygı gerektirmeyen doğal yapısı, zamanla çeşitlenmiş olsa da daima özünü koruyabilmiş ve zamansız bir malzeme olarak kullanım değerini kaybetmemiştir, tüm bu değerlerin vurgulanması ve ortaya konması gereken son derece kıymetli bir malzemedir. Ahşap tek başına yapının kendisini oluşturan donanım elamanı, yüzey kaplaması, kullanım nesnesi, mobilya ve aksesuar olabilmekte ve tüm bu ihtiyaçlara cevap verebilmektedir. Diğer malzemelerin üzerinde çok sayıda fayda sağlayabilmektedir. Bu tez çalışmasında literatür taraması, kütüphane araştırması, gözlem ve görüşme yöntemleri kullanılmıştır. Yapılan araştırmaların neticesinde, tez içeriğinde İç Mimarlık temelinde mekânın tanımlanması ve iç mekândaki malzemelerden doğal ahşap, tez yazarı Beyza Hanedar tarafından “İç Mekânda Ahşap Malzeme Kullanımı ve Örnekler Üzerinden İncelenmesi” başlığıyla ele alınmıştır. Ahşabın geniş yelpazeye sahip olması göz önüne alınarak tüm çeşitlerine değinilmiş ve doğal ahşap ile sınırlandırılmıştır. İç Mimarlık temelinde ele alınan ahşabın; İç mekândaki uygulama alanları, fiziksel-psikolojik ve kimyasal özellikleri, kullanım değeri, kullanış biçimlerinin detayları ve günümüzde ahşap malzemeye verilmesi gereken değerin artırılması önerisi tez içeriğinde işlenmiştir. Örnek olarak düşünülmüş ve çağdaş kullanım kapsamında olan Karadeniz Türk evi tezin özgün kısmında yer almaktadır. İki Karadeniz Türk evlerinde yaşayan kullanıcıların düşünceleri, yaşam tarzlarındaki kullanma yoğunlukları ve önerileri dikkate alınarak sorular hazırlanmış ve cevaplar alınmıştır. Elde edilmiş olan cevaplar üç grup teşkil edecek şekilde, sabit, hareketli, aksesuarlar(yardımcı donanımlar) temelinde değerlendirilmek üzere matris içinde analiz edilmiş ve yorumlanmıştır. Elde edilen bilgiler bulgular ve sonuçlara yansıtılmıştır.Values that users receive or perceive from a space while using it plays an important role. These values are materialized by the design and surface of the space. Therefore, it is important to know the use values of materials which constitute the basic element of the concept of space. Wood, a building construction material and design element, is a high value material which can be obtained directly from nature and easily processed. It is a sustainable material and creates a cozy and characteristic perception of the space. Wood, as a timeless material, has not lost its use value with its qualities such as being acoustic, non-conductive material. It is very special by its texture, color, smell and it is highly aesthetic with its warm and colorful appearance creating quality within the space it is used. It also has good impact on human health. Wood, by its own, can be a hardware element, surface coating, object of use, furniture material and an accessory; therefore it can meet all needs and it provide numerous benefits on other materials. In this thesis study, literature review, library research, observation and survey methods were used. As a result of the research, the definition of the space on the basis of interior design and natural wood, within the materials of interior, are discussed by the author Beyza Hanedar, with the title of “Use Of Wood Materials In The Interior And Examination Of Sample”. Considering the wide range of wood materials, all types of wood varieties were mentioned in the study. Application areas of wood in interior, physical-psychological and chemical properties, use value, details of usage patterns are subjected in this study and an increase in the use of wood in the interiors is suggested by the author. The black sea Turkish hause, wich has been concidened as an example and is within the scope of modern use is located in the original part of the thesis. Questions prepared and answers were taken based on the thoughts of users living in the Black Sea Turkish houses, the intensity of use and recommendations in their lifestyle. The answers obtained were analyzed and interpreted in the matrix to be evaluated on the basis of fixed, moving, accessories (auxiliary equipments) to form three groups. The informations obtained are reflected in the findings and results

    Goal-setting dialogue for physical activity with a virtual coach

    No full text
    Lack of physical activity is one of the main risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases. Although most people are aware of the risks of this poor health behavior, they have a hard time improving this behavior. Goal-setting is an effective step in the process of changing behavior. It can motivate a person and help them to remain focused on the desired outcome, which increases the chance of successfully achieving a goal. In this thesis, we studied the design of a goal-setting dialogue for a virtual coach to motivate people in the context of physical activity. The dialogue was designed to support people in setting SMART goals and to raise their self-efficacy. Part of the design was vicarious experiences in the form of examples of people who successfully achieved a physical activity goal. We gathered these examples and fit a model to predict which examples to show to a user during the conversation with the virtual coach. An experiment was conducted to evaluate whether there was an increase in users' self-efficacy after the conversation with the virtual coach, how motivating the given examples were, and users' attitudes towards the virtual coach. The results indicated that users' self-efficacy was lower after the interaction with the virtual coach. However, we found that people considered the given examples motivating and had a positive attitude toward the virtual coach.Computer Scienc

    Morphosyntactic Variation in Spoken English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) : Revisiting linguistic variety

    No full text
    It is now well-known that in ELF settings, we have complex language contact situations with high linguistic heterogeneity. The linguistic diversity present in ELF settings naturally manifests itself in several areas, including variation in morphosyntactic use. While the conventional wisdom has been that non-standardness is associated with a speaker’s L1, ELF research has shown repeatedly that this variation is not (solely) due to speakers’ L1 backgrounds (e.g. author, 2013a and 2013b; Ranta, 2013), and that there are too many non-standard forms shared by a wide spectrum of L1s that may be considered commonalities. ELF research has revealed several processes of syntactic variation in ELF usage, such as reducing redundancy (e.g. ‘not marking the plural on the noun’, author 2013a), and creating extra explicitness (e.g. ‘unraised negation’ in author 2013a; see Schneider, 2012 for an overview of the processes of variation). When it comes to morphology, similar trends have been observed (author, 2013a), namely non-standard word forms with semantic transparency (e.g. discriminization, levelize), analytic comparatives (e.g. more narrow), and non-standard plurals (e.g. how many energy). The present paper focuses on morphosyntactic variation in 15 hours of naturally-occurring speech from a Swedish higher education setting and reports research conducted by the author (2013a, b and in preparation) where s/he approaches variation in ELF with reference to the World Englishes (WE) paradigm, Second Language Acquisition (SLA) and creole studies. Included in the discussion are other ELF studies on grammatical variation (e.g. Ranta, 2013). Following major studies that problematize variation and variability in ELF usage (e.g. Ferguson, 2009; Schneider, 2012; Seidlhofer, 2009), the present paper aims to offer new perspectives on the theoretical construct of ‘variety’. The paper also argues that WE and ELF paradigms have much to gain from each other (see Seidlhofer, 2009) while addressing the sociolinguistic realities of the world today.</p

    PhD supervision meetings in an English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) setting: linguistic competence and content knowledge as neutralizers of institutional and academic power

    No full text
    Abstract The present paper investigates PhD supervision meetings, using material from naturally occurring speech of ten hours by PhD supervisors and students who all use English as a lingua franca (ELF) for research purposes. The recordings have been transcribed in their entirety, with conversation analytical procedures and additional ethnographic interviews with the PhD supervisors. The present paper is a follow-up to the two previous studies by the author (in European Journal for Applied Linguistics 3[2], 2015, and The Routledge Handbook of English for Academic Purposes, 2016) and focuses on linguistic competence and content knowledge as factors possibly mitigating the power asymmetry present in the interactions. The findings show no observable power asymmetries manifested in the interactions or in the interview responses by the supervisors. The analyses showed that the supervisors’ and the students’ level of linguistic competence seemed very similar, which was further supported by the supervisors’ self-reports of their own English and their informal evaluations of their students’ levels of proficiency. When it comes to content knowledge, the students overall showed very good command of their subjects, disciplinary conventions and their projects in general, further supported by their supervisors’ evaluations in the interview data. Based on these findings, it is suggested here that in ELF interactions of this particular type where the speakers have similar levels of linguistic competence and content knowledge, power asymmetries become less visible.</jats:p

    The Production Guide for the Zarqaliyya (Universal Astrolabe) in the Work of Abu al-Hasan al-Marrakushi

    No full text
    One of the greatest astronomers of the 13th century, Abū ʿAlī al-Ḥasan al-Marrākushī is the author of Jāmiʿ al-mabādī’ wa-l-ghāyāt fī ʿilm al-mīqāt (An A to Z of Astronomical Timekeeping) which includes the production and operation guides for many astronomical instruments. This study translates the production guide Zarqāliyya, examines the working principle of this instrument, and presents a mathematical interpretation for current readers. A standard astrolabe provides measurements by means of disks produced separately for the different latitudes. The particular disk we examine in this article was developed by the Andalusian astronomer al-Zarqālī (d. 493/1100), is named zarqāliyya, and is known as ṣafīḥa in the West. This disk is peculiar to Islamic astronomy and enables measurement for any latitude. At present, this astrolabe is qualified as universal for being operational independent of latitude. Marrākushī’s discussion of this universal disk zarqāliyya in his time is an epitome for the understanding of the transmission and circulation of knowledge in the scientific environment of Islam, and the current article evaluates this aspect. This article includes the subject and importance of Marrākushī’s monumental work, its modern presentations, and the mathematical explanations of the universal astrolabe’s stereographic projection. It additionally provides the formulations necessary for constructing this astrolabe and presents drawings based on these relations using the Paris edition of the manuscript registered as Or. No.2507-2508 in the National Library of France. The stars and coptic months engraved on the instruments are presented as tables. Lastly, this study includes an annotated translation by comparing the different editions of the manuscript
