İş yaşamında gelecek zaman algısının demografik analizi: Artvin örneği
(Türk Kooperatifçilik Kurumu, 2025) Öztürk, Tayfun; Dinç, Ertan
Bu çalışma, İş Yaşamında Gelecek Zaman Algısı’nın (İGZA) demografik değişkenlere göre nasıl farklılık gösterdiğini analiz etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. İGZA, bireylerin iş yaşamlarında geleceğe dair kalan zamanlarına yönelik algılarını, bu algıların kariyer hedefleri, motivasyonları ve davranışları üzerindeki etkileriyle birlikte ele almaktadır. Araştırma, Artvin ilinde çeşitli sektörlerde çalışan 334 pazarlama ve satış personeliyle gerçekleştirilmiştir. Veriler, Zacher ve Frese (2009) tarafından geliştirilmiş ve Türkçe uyarlaması daha önceki bir çalışmada (Birincioğlu, 2024) yapılmış olan İGZA ölçeği ile toplanmış; bağımsız örneklem t-testi ve tek yönlü varyans analizi (ANOVA) yoluyla analiz edilmiştir. İGZA’nın üç alt boyutu olan fırsatlara odaklanma, kısıtlara odaklanma ve algılanan kalan süre, katılımcıların cinsiyet, yaş, medeni durum ve kıdem sürelerine göre incelenmiştir. Bulgular, yalnızca algılanan kalan süre boyutunda anlamlı farklılıklar ortaya koymuş; genç, bekâr ve kıdemsiz çalışanların iş yaşamında kendilerine daha uzun süre kaldığını düşündükleri belirlenmiştir. Buna karşılık, fırsatlara ve kısıtlara odaklanma boyutlarında demografik temelli anlamlı bir ayrışma gözlenmemiştir. Sonuçlar, kariyer planlamasında bireylerin zaman algılarının yaş, sosyal roller ve kurumsal deneyimle şekillendiğini göstermekte; insan kaynakları stratejilerinin bu değişkenleri dikkate alması gerektiğini ortaya koymaktadır.
The influence of exchange rate on performance of furniture industry: The case of Turkey
(University of Zagreb Faculty of Forestry and Wood Technology, 2025) Çayır, Mustafa; Ersen, Nadir
In this study, the effect of the effective exchange rate on the industrial production index, capacity utilization rate, import and export of the furniture products sector was investigated. The analysis covers the period from 2007 to 2023, and the data consists of month observations. Since some of the variables are non-linear and not stationary at the same level, nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag limit test (NARDL), which takes into account asymmetric effects, was used as a method. According to the results of the research, it has been determined that in the short term, downward movements in the effective exchange rate increase the capacity utilization rate of the furniture sector with a significance of 5 %, while upward movements in the effective exchange rate decrease the industrial production index of the furniture sector with a significance of 1 %. Additionally, the downward movements in the effective exchange rate negatively affect the export of furniture products in the long term, while it positively affects the import of furniture in the short term.
A qualitative research examining the impact of the earthquakes on financial reports within the scope of IAS 10
(MEHMET AKIF ERSOY UNIV, 2025) Onay, Ahmet; Güneş, Recep
Deeply affecting the Turkish economy, the earthquakes that struck Kahramanmara & scedil; on February 6, 2023, had an adverse effect on the operations of numerous companies. As of the occurrence date, these earthquakes have been reported in the financial statements of many publicly traded companies as events after the reporting period. The purpose of this study is to determine how events after the balance sheet date are reported in the financial statements of companies in T & uuml;rkiye in the post-earthquake period. In line with this objective, two sample groups were created from companies whose stock trading was suspended after the earthquake and those in the BIST-100 Index that continued trading. The financial statements of these sample groups, specifically regarding events after the reporting period, were separately examined. Qualitative methods were employed in the analysis, and word frequencies and word clouds were obtained using Maxqda Analytics Pro 24. The analyses confirmed that publicly traded companies report events after the reporting period in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. Additionally, the study qualitatively revealed the economic impacts of the earthquake disaster in T & uuml;rkiye, resulting in both material and non-material losses. This study has the potential to contribute to the limited domestic literature by addressing events after the reporting period through conceptual or theoretical examinations. Additionally, it stands to contribute to the broader international literature on the subject.
Work-family conflict and work alienation among seafarers: The mediating role of emotional exhaustion
(Elsevier Ltd, 2023) Toygar, Arda; Nart, Senem; Yıldırım, Umut
Working on ships in challenging conditions and with limited social contact, seafarers are separated from their families for much of the year. Moreover, the recent global crises have restricted seafarers’ connections with the shore. The necessity to work away from family can cause emotional exhaustion and work alienation among seafarers. Today, when the demand for maritime transportation has reached the highest levels, it is important to identify the factors that lead to the alienation of seafarers, who are the building blocks of the sector in the profession. Therefore, this study investigated the mediating role of emotional exhaustion in the association between work-family conflict and work alienation among seafarers. The participants of this study were 360 seafarers. The researchers used structural equation modeling to analyze the proposed hypotheses. The results of the mediation model indicated a significant and positive association between work-family conflict and work alienation, with emotional exhaustion partially mediating this association. Therefore, the study found that higher levels of work-family conflict were associated with higher levels of emotional exhaustion and work alienation. The results provide a different perspective on the challenges faced by seafarers and have practical implications.
The mediating role of psychological safety in the effect of organisational cynicism on whistleblowing
(Emerald, 2025) Filiz, Mustafa; Blenkinsopp, Hohn
Purpose – To determine the mediating role of psychological safety in the effect of organisational cynicism on whistleblowing intentions. Design/methodology/approach – About 519 healthcare workers were surveyed. Existing validated scales for organisational cynicism, whistleblowing intentions and psychological safety were used for data collection. Exploratory factor analysis was conducted on the scales, and path analysis was used to test the hypotheses of the study. Findings – The results showed organisational cynicism had significant effects on both whistleblowing and psychological safety, whilst psychological safety acted as a mediator but only for internal whistleblowing. Originality/value –By testing a relatively complex model involving multiple variables, we were able to identify a simpler model offering avenues for future research and practice implications.

(Artvin Çoruh Üniversitesi, 2024) Öztürk, Atakan; Filiz, Mustafa
Bu çalışmada bireylerin bitkisel ilaç/ürün kullanma ve satın alma davranışlarının belirlenmesi ve çeşitli demografik değişkenlere (yaş, cinsiyet, gelir, medeni durum vb.) göre bu davranışlardaki farklılıkların ortaya konulması amaçlanmaktadır. Çalışmada veriler, Artvin ilinde yaşayan 18 yaş üstü bireylerden yüz yüze ve online (çevrimiçi) anket yöntemiyle toplanmıştır. Bireylerin bitkisel ilaç/ürün kullanma ve satın alma davranışlarını belirlemek amacıyla ortalama değerler hesaplanmıştır. Ayrıca, bireylerin bitkisel ilaç/ürün kullanma ve satın alma davranışlarının demografik değişkenlere göre farklılıklarını belirlemek için t testi ve Anova testi uygulanmıştır. Katılımcıların %66.8'i bitkisel ilaç/ürün olarak bitki çayı tüketirken, %49.3'ü bitki çaylarını yan etkisi olmadığına inandıkları için tercih ettiklerini ve %48.6’sı da bitki çaylarından çoğu zaman beklenen sonucu (olumlu etkiyi) elde ettiklerini belirtmektedirler. Yine katılımcıların %75.7’si piyasada öne çıkan ve kendilerine sunulan başlıca dört bitkisel ürün markasını daha önce kullanmadıklarını ya da bu markaların ismini duymadıklarını belirtirken, %54.1'i ise bu ürünleri daha çok kış mevsiminde ve eczanelerden satın aldıklarını ifade etmektedirler. COVID-19 döneminde katılımcıların %45.5'i hastalık geçirmişken, bahse konu dönemde %32.2'si tedavi için bitkisel ürün kullanmış ve %21.2'sinin ise bitkisel ürünlere ayrılan bütçelerinde artış olmuştur. Genel olarak, araştırma sonuçları katılımcıların bitkisel ürünler konusunda hem olumlu hem de olumsuz görüşlere sahip olduğunu ve sağlık hizmetleri tercihlerinin doktorlar yönünde yoğunlaştığını ortaya koymaktadır. Ayrıca, araştırmayla COVID-19 pandemisinin bitkisel ürün kullanımını artırmış olabileceğine dair bulgular da elde edilmiştir. Bu sonuçlar, bitkisel ürünlerin sağlık yönetimindeki rolünü ve pandeminin bu alandaki etkilerini daha iyi anlamak için ileri düzeyde araştırmalara ihtiyaç duyulduğunu göstermektedir.

A swot analysis of the Türkiye healthcare system: A physicians' perspective
(İnönü Üniversitesi, 2024) Filiz, Mustafa
The aim of this study is to conduct a SWOT analysis of the Türkiye healthcare system from the viewpoint of physicians. The sample for this study consisted of 22 physicians who voluntarily participated. A qualitative research approach was employed, utilizing semi-structured interview forms for data collection. Data were gathered both face-to-face and online. The obtained data were coded, and similar codes were categorized and themed. This study incorporated both SWOT analysis and content analysis methods. When examining the findings, physicians highlighted easy access and availability as the strong aspects of the Türkiye healthcare system. However, the system's weaknesses were predominantly identified as issues concerning healthcare professionals. On the other hand, medical tourism was pointed out as the most significant opportunity awaiting the health system, whereas the escalating violence towards healthcare workers was perceived as the biggest threat. The Türkiye Healthcare System stands out with strengths such as ease of access and advanced technological infrastructure, as well as opportunities like medical tourism. However, it also harbors pressing challenges, including violence against healthcare workers and medication shortages. It is anticipated that many of these issues will be addressed when the balance between demand and supply is achieved.
The impact of individual health perception on cyberchondria behavior
(İstanbul Üniversitesi, 2024) Filiz, Mustafa; Karagöz, Yalçın
Objectives: The aim of this study is to determine the effect of individual health perception on cyberchondria tendency and to identify differences in individual health perception and cyberchondria tendency according to various demographic variables. Material and Methods: The sample of the study consists of 400 individuals over the age of 18, residing in Istanbul, Turkiye. The individual health perception scale and cyberchondria severity scale were used as data collection tools. The t-test and ANOVA tests for difference analyses, correlation analysis to examine the direction of the relationship and multiple connection problem between sub-dimensions of the scale, and multiple regression analysis were used to determine the effect of individual health perception on cyberchondria tendency. Results: The results indicate that participants exhibit sub-average tendencies towards cyberchondria but maintain favorable perceptions of their health. Upon examination, no significant variations in health perception were identified based on marital status, gender, age, income level, place of residence, healthcare facility type, or annual frequency of hospital visits (p>0.05). Notably, individuals with a bachelor's degree manifested more pronounced cyberchondria behaviors compared to those with associate degrees or high school diplomas (p<0.05). The data also underscores a significant correlation between individual health perceptions and the propensity towards cyberchondria (p<0.05). Conclusion: It was concluded that 49% of individuals' cyberchondria levels are explained by health perception. It was found that the education factor had a significant effect on individual health perception and cyberchondria tendency, but demographic factors such as gender, age, income, type of settlement, type of hospital, and annual hospital visit status did not have any effect. It is recommended to design customized informational campaigns or interventions aimed at specific educational groups to correct potential misunderstandings and improve health literacy.
Breaking barriers: How race shapes service expectations across actors and contexts
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2024) Elmadağ, Ayşe Banu; Okan, Mehmet; Yaoyuneyong, Gallayanee
This study investigates the impact of race on Customer Service Quality Expectations (SQE) using the Similarity-Attraction Perspective within the context of all interacting service actors, including customers, service providers, and other customers. A thorough literature review of racial effects in service environments is followed by a 2 (Service Actor Race: White vs. Black) × 2 (Service Actor Role: Service Provider vs. Other Customers) × 2 (Context: Experience vs. Credence) experimental study with Black and White customers. The study revealed that customer Perceptions of Service Actor Similarity (PSIM) mediate the influence of matching Customer Race and Service Actor Race on SQE. Results indicate: 1) that SQE is higher when customers are in the presence of other Service Actors perceived to be of their own race, and 2) that the effect varies by Service Actor Role and Service Type. This is an initial attempt to explore the impact of race on Experience and Credence services by adopting a Similarity-Attraction framework considering all participants in the service environment. The findings of this study hold important managerial implications, emphasizing that businesses should be mindful of the impact of race on SQE and consider fostering a diverse and inclusive service environment to enhance customer outcomes.
Selecting the ideal sustainable green strategy for logistics companies using a T-spherical fuzzy-based methodology
(Elsevier Ltd, 2024) Aytekin, Ahmet; Korucuk, Selçuk; Bedirhanoğlu, Şule Bayazit; Simic, Vladimir
Governments, institutions, and organizations focused on renewable and green energy problems have provided significant support and incentives for project development in recent years. Green transformation is fostered through environmentally friendly and clean energy practices, which are the key to a sustainable future for the entire world, and governments and enterprises shape their business and transactions within this framework. However, there are various challenges and obstacles in green energy applications, both in businesses and in government policies. The study, which focuses on green energy problems, seeks to connect energy with sustainable business strategies. Furthermore, because businesses are often concerned with social and environmental implications, it is believed that implementing a sustainable energy strategy will give long-term benefits to businesses. In this regard, this study aims to identify green energy problems in logistics companies and to select the best sustainable strategy. The hybrid T-spherical fuzzy (T-SF) methodology is introduced to solve the problem, including T–SF–subjective weighting, T–SF–criteria importance through intercriteria correlation (CRITIC), subjective and objective weight integrated approach (SOWIA), and T–SF–additive ratio assessment system (ARAS). According to the results, the most important green energy factor in logistics companies is determined as “energy security”. The best sustainable strategy is identified as the “socially beneficial services supply strategy”. The relevant results are critical for guiding companies, users, and stakeholders.
The moderating role of work experience in the effect of ethical culture on whistleblowing in healthcare professionals and the effect of organizational trust on whistleblowing
(Elsevier Espana S.L.U, 2024) Budak, Olkan; Filiz, Mustafa
Objective: This study aims to determine the moderator role of work experience in the impact of ethical culture perceptions of healthcare professionals on their whistleblowing tendencies. It is also to reveal the effect of organizational trust on whistleblowing. Methods: The population of the study consists of health personnel working in the public or private sector in Turkey. The sample of the study consists of 481 health workers who voluntarily participated in the survey. Data were collected using the convenience sampling technique. In collecting data, whistleblowing, organizational trust, and ethical culture scales were used. In the analysis of the data, descriptive statistics, factor analysis, correlation analysis, and path analysis in the structural equation model were performed. Results: The findings reveal that organizational trust has an impact on ethical culture and that some sub-components of organizational trust and ethical culture have an impact on whistleblowing. In addition, it has been determined that the group of health professionals with low work experience has a moderating role in the effect of applicability on internal whistleblowing. Conclusion: To handle the whistleblowing mechanism internally in health institutions, it is important to clearly show the ethical rules to the employees. On the other hand, it has been seen that the professional experiences of the employees can be used as a tool for whistleblowing to work.

(Dicle Üniversitesi, 2024) Filiz, Mustafa; Karagöz, Yalçın
The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of university students' individual health perceptions on the level of internet addiction. Additionally, the study aims to reveal differences in internet addiction and individual health perceptions among students based on various demographic variables. A total of 286 students from Düzce University participated in the study. The data collection tools used were the Internet Addiction Scale and Individual Health Perception Scales. It was found that the students' levels of internet addiction were low, while their individual health perceptions were at a moderate level. The average internet addiction scores were relatively higher for male students, those enrolled in formal education, and those with a moderate income level compared to other groups. It was observed that the level of health perception did not vary according to students' income status, gender, type of settlement, and type of education. A weak relationship was identified between university students' health perceptions and internet addiction. These findings contribute significantly to understanding the relationship between internet addiction and health perceptions among university students. However, it should be noted that further research is needed to better comprehend the complexity of this relationship. This study may serve as a foundation for future research aiming to develop effective intervention strategies against internet addiction.
