Declining fertility trends: a cause for concern
Authors: Lyngdoh Tanica , Kandpal Vani , Shukla Vikas , Priyanka Kuruba Y. , Mukherjee Reema , Kulkarni Bharati
Published: December 2024

Declining fertility, forecasted to reach 1.8 by 2100, has become a major concern in developed as well as developing countries. Low fertility rates have serious consequences in long run, posing a threat to social structures and economic stability along with creating burden on work force resulting in lack of labour and societal challenges. In various nations, fertility rates have fallen much below replacement levels, causing governments to fear adverse economic consequences. Concerned with shrinking population, governments throughout the world have responded to this by funding pronatalist policies like paid parental leave, tax breaks, and baby bonuses. Immigration policies have also been adopted by developed countries. However, the success of these initiatives is debatable, with research indicating impact to some extent on reversing the fertility reduction. It is important to recognize this as a complex phenomenon and impact of the pronatalist policies must be interpreted in light of the factors that underlie the wide-ranging and multifaceted disparities and influencing factors interacting among themselves. Strategies considering prevailing social norms, gender equality, women force participation and other contextual factors may lead to substantial improvement in increasing total fertility rate (TFR).
Moringa oleifera: a review on nutritive significance and its medicinal application for children
Authors: Sundaram Devisri , Babu Naziya K.
Published: December 2024

Although native to the Indian subcontinent, the drought-resistant Moringa oleifera has gained significant attention in recent years due to its extraordinary nutritional and medicinal properties. In developing countries, malnutrition still threatens public health and demands integrated approaches to improve the nutritional status, especially among children. In this regard, Moringa oleifera is a powerful tool for enhancing children's nutritional status due to its remarkable amino acid and vitamin, particularly in areas with restricted access to a wide variety of nutrient-dense foods. It is also rich in iron content and other essential nutrients needed for iron metabolism; thus, Moringa trees have been employed in developing tropical countries to alleviate malnutrition and treat childhood diseases such as iron deficiency anaemia. This review highlights the nutritional value of Moringa oleifera and its therapeutic uses for children.

On Measuring Psalm Similarity: A Case for Word-Level n-Grams
Authors: Wójcik Jerzy
Published: December 2024

The article offers a comparison between Tesserae (a text-reuse detection tool) and cosine similarity (used here as a measure of similarity between texts) and assesses their applicability to tracking textual affinities of different versions of historical texts on the basis of Early Modern English versions of Psalm 6 found in publications printed between 1530 and 1557. It is shown that cosine similarity is a better tool for the task of identifying and measuring the level of similarity between texts. At the same time, the article argues that cosine similarity measurements should be performed on texts represented as feature vectors consisting of n-grams.

Published: December 2024

Background. Global trends of increasing life expectancy against the background of a decrease in the average age of natural menopause highlight the problem of qualified management of this contingent of women. The menopausal period can be associated with many clinical signs, such as vasomotor symptoms, genitourinary problems and additional psychological disorders (anxiety, mood swings and sleep disorders). Ignoring the first symptoms of age-related changes can lead to a decrease in the quality of life, workforce productivity and general health deterioration. Objective of the review: to analyze modern approaches to the management of patients with menopausal disorders in risk groups; to study the possibilities and benefits of transdermal estrogen.Analysis of literary data. The key link in the pathogenesis of menopausal disorders is objectively considered to be a decrease in estrogen synthesis in the ovaries, which leads to the development of clinical symptoms of menopause and a significant increase in the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases, obesity, diabetes, bone loss, osteoporosis, etc. Timely administration of menopausal hormone therapy is currently considered the most effective method of treating vasomotor symptoms, genitourinary syndrome, sleep disorders and emotional changes in women. The management of this women contingent requires the mandatory consideration of absolute and relative contraindications to the appointment of hormonal therapy. The general management strategy of women with menopausal disorders, including genitourinary menopausal syndrome, involves a comprehensive approach to diagnosis and treatment. Its important component is the use of menopausal hormone therapy, taking into account contraindications in women at risk of developing cardiovascular, thrombotic, and metabolic complications. Educating health care professionals about the benefits of hormone therapy, including transdermal estrogens potential, will optimize menopausal management and reduce the various risks and adverse effects of oral administration. In this context, the use of the transdermal form of 17β-estradiol (Estrogel) and the original micronized progesterone medication (Utrozhestan) in menopausal disorder management regimens, given their proven efficacy, is gaining clinical significance for the correction of estrogen deficiency and its symptoms, particularly in risk groups. Conclusions. Management of patients with menopausal disorders is a matter of a personalized approach to choosing the optimal treatment regimen with adherence to the principles: timely, effective and as safe as possible.

Authors: Paula Eduardo da Silva , Bueno Paranhos Darlisson , Martins Junior Adijalme , Moraes Fernanda Regina de
Published: December 2024

Objetivo: caracterizar o estado funcional de pacientes admitidos em uma enfermaria de clínica médica e comparar as variáveis clínicas conforme o nível funcional e verificar se um baixo nível funcional estava associado a piores desfechos clínicos. Método: estudo transversal, descritivo e quantitativo, realizado com pacientes adultos internados em um hospital universitário de maio a julho de 2019.  A avaliação da independência funcional foi realizada pelo Índice de Barthel. Os pacientes foram agrupados de acordo com a pontuação no Índice de Barthel: dependência severa (<60 pontos), dependência moderada (entre 60 e 80 pontos) e independente (>85).  As variáveis entre os grupos foram analisadas pelo teste de Qui-quadrado e Anova. A análise das variáveis associadas ao tempo de internação hospitalar foi realizada através da regressão linear múltipla. Resultados: foram incluídos 97 pacientes. Destes, 52,5% eram do sexo feminino, com idade média de 63,3(17,7) anos e 86 (88,7%) apresentavam comorbidades. A maioria dos pacientes (85,6%) encaminhados da UPA. Doenças respiratórias foram as principais causas de internação (33%). Apenas 19,1% eram funcionalmente independentes. Pacientes com dependência funcional moderada a grave apresentaram maior necessidade de readmissão hospitalar (p=0,040). Tempo de internação até encaminhamento para hospital referência (p=0,011) foi um fator independente associado a um maior tempo de internação hospitalar. Conclusão: verificou-se que os pacientes internados na enfermaria nas primeiras 24 horas apresentaram um baixo nível funcional. Pacientes com dependência funcional, quando comparados aos independentes, apresentaram uma maior taxa de readmissão.

Authors: Oliveira Costa Leonardo , Adams Fernanda Welter , Maria Tavares Nunes Simara
Published: December 2024

Desde 2012 são realizadas as Feiras de Ciências da Universidade Federal de Catalão (UFCAT), evento de extensão voltado para alunos da Educação Básica. Os licenciandos envolvidos como monitores do projeto, ao fazer parte desta ação de extensão, tem a oportunidade de entrar em contato com alunos e professores da Educação Básica através do oferecimento de oficinas de elaboração de projetos e a oportunidade de monitorar/auxiliar os alunos na elaboração e desenvolvimento de seus trabalhos, tendo a oportunidade de vivência da docência. Neste sentido, neste trabalho, se buscou identificar aspectos que pudessem subsidiar discussões sobre a contribuição da articulação de atividades de Extensão, Ensino e Pesquisa na formação inicial crítico-reflexiva de licenciandos envolvidos como monitores das Feiras de Ciências da UFCAT. Sendo assim, foi realizada uma pesquisa qualitativa, tendo questionários como instrumentos de coleta de dados que foram respondidos pelos licenciandos envolvidos nas oito edições do evento. Nos questionários, os ex monitores foram chamados a refletir sobre sua experiência formativa ao atuar no evento, relatando sobre qual a contribuição desse tipo de atividade de extensão para sua formação inicial docente. Os dados coletados a partir dos questionários foram tratados através da metodologia da Análise Textual Discursiva, tendo sido criadas quatro categorias. Acredita-se que a participação em ações de extensão como as Feiras de Ciências da UFCAT auxilia na formação de profissionais com uma visão muito mais reflexiva sobre a prática docente, sendo que boa parte dessa reflexão se dá quando o licenciando tem contato com uma vasta gama de possibilidades que vão além dos livros e teorias, partindo de cenas que o façam protagonista.

Authors: Nogueira Pedro Henrique Silvestre , Souza Symon Tiago Brandão de , Ferreira Heraldo Simões
Published: December 2024

Esta investigação tem por objeto analisar como o trabalho pedagógico centrado nas estratégias utilizadas pelos professores vem sendo desenvolvido nas aulas de Educação Física do município de Aracati-CE. Participaram do estudo dez professores da rede municipal de ensino. Possui como instrumento de coleta de dados um questionário eletrônico do tipo survey, composto de quatro distintas seções. Como principais resultados constatou-se o desejo por mais momentos formativos. Já a compreensão sobre inclusão girou em torno das categorias da adaptação, igualdade de aprendizagem e igualdade de oportunidades. 90% dos professores relatam não se sentirem preparados para o trabalho com alunos com deficiência, sobretudo porque as dificuldades para desenvolver uma perspectiva inclusiva são caracterizadas pela falta de recursos materiais e de estrutura física adequada, assim como a falta de incentivo à formação continuada também se sobressaiu como um sério impedimento. Por sua vez, as atividades adaptadas surgiram como o principal recurso pedagógico utilizado pelos professores. Concluímos que a Educação Física escolar é essencial no processo de formação dos alunos, pois favorece a interação social, a autonomia, a autoconfiança, dentre outros. A proposta de inclusão escolar requer inúmeras implicações aos sistemas educacionais e aponta a necessidade de transformações no campo político, administrativo e pedagógico.

Underdetermination problem in methodology of economics
Authors: Luty Damian , Iwański Rafał
Published: December 2024

This paper explores the Duhem-Quine (DQ) problem and its impact on economic methodology, focusing on how the reliance on auxiliary assumptions complicates the testing and validation of theories. The DQ problem shows that no hypothesis is tested in isolation, as it depends on additional assumptions and background knowledge, making it challenging to pinpoint where errors lie. This issue is particularly relevant in economics, where complex models and assumptions about human behavior play a significant role, and in finance, where the robustness of models is critical for decision-making under uncertainty.
The paper highlights two key gaps: (i) the limited discussion of the DQ problem in economic methodology, and (ii) the lack of alternative approaches to ensure rational methods in light of DQ. To address these issues, it proposes a multi-criterial framework for evaluating theories, emphasizing consistency, diverse data, localized testing, comparing models, and varying assumptions systematically.
Using examples like housing market models and the Ultimatum Game, the paper illustrates how addressing the DQ problem involves avoiding arbitrary changes to assumptions while adopting clear, rational strategies. By providing a stronger methodological foundation, this approach enhances the reliability of economic and financial theories, improving their influence on policy-making and practical applications.

Authors: Miller John , Croft Chris , Stokowski Sarah
Published: December 2024

Being able to call on students during class increases the likelihood of instructor immediacy. As a result, due to a decrease of distance between students and the instructor which may increase the likelihood of creating an inclusive environment. An inclusive pedagogical strategy that has been shown to be effective in knowing student names is the use of name tents. The results of this study revealed that through the use of name tents, students felt vested and valued by other students and the instructors, which are critical in building relationships in an inclusive atmosphere. Furthermore, the results indicated that recognizing the different social identities listed on the name tents was effective in creating an inclusive environment in as well as outside of the classroom.
Ekran pod strzechą. Specyfika oraz estetyka ograniczonej modernizacji i mediatyzacji podhalańskich domostw na podstawie "Zapisu socjologicznego" Zofii Rydet

W niniejszym artykule teza o zmianie funkcji i symboliki domów pod wpływem rewolucji informacyjnej, jaką zaproponował w 1990 r. filozof mediów Vilém Flusser w eseju Architektura przyszłości, zostaje skonfrontowana z fotografiami autorstwa Zofii Rydet z cyklu Zapis socjologiczny. W tekście analizowane są – stanowiące najliczniejszy zbiór – fotografie mieszkańców i domostw podhalańskich wsi z lat 1978–1990, jako dokument ukazujący przebiegający w nich proces przejścia od domu rozumianego jako schronienie umożliwiające spojrzenie w głąb siebie i na najbliższą okolicę, do domu jako miejsca umożliwiającego obserwację i interakcję z rozszerzonym obrazem świata prezentowanym przez media. W pracy analizowana jest estetyka fotografowanych domostw, w których w specyficzny sposób łączy się ludowa wrażliwość estetyczna, produkty uprzemysłowionej gospodarki i kulturowe „samoróbki”.

Financialization and Level of Happiness in the Context of Sustainable Development. The Case of Central and Eastern European Countries
Authors: Ostrowska Aleksandra , Włodarczyk Bogdan
Published: December 2024

The purpose of the article. The article aims to identify and assess the impact of the financialization process on the level of happiness as an effect of sustainable development in selected Central and Eastern European countries in 2012–2022.
Methodology. The research used panel models. The World Happiness Index (WHI) was adopted as the dependent variable, taking into account social aspects of sustainable development. Financialization measures included the Financial Development Index (FDI) published by the International Monetary Fund and credit to the private sector (as a % of GDP). The models were estimated using OLS, fixed-effects and random-effects estimators. Macroeconomic variables were included in the set of explanatory variables. The most effective estimator was selected using Wald, Breusch-Pagan and Hausman tests. Robust standard errors were imposed on the models.
Results of the research. In the estimated models, the significance of parameters in the case of financialization varied depending on the estimator used. The Financial Development Index was an insignificant variable in all models. Clear significance was observed in relation to credit to the private sector (as % of GDP). Regardless of the financialization measure adopted and the estimator used, the obtained parameters for financialization indicators were negative. Although financialization may be an instrument for financing sustainable development, it does not have a positive impact on the level of happiness that results from it. The basic reasons may lie in the too low scale of financing activities related to sustainable development or in the inadequate structure of this financing. Changes in financing are needed and its redirection to activities aimed at achieving sustainable development and happiness. Future research should use other measures of financiakization and happiness that take into account aspects of sustainable development and include other countries to make a comparison.
Effects of 2, 4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic Acid and Silver Nitrate (AgNO3) on Haploid Embryo Induction in Triticale (x Triticosecale) Following Wide Hybridization with Maize (Zea mays L.)
Authors: Subedi Mamata , Paudel Pratikshya , Kumar Rajneesh , Sandal Sanjeet Singh , Bashir Iram , Sharma Divya , Tripathi Tanvi
Published: December 2024

Background: Wide hybridization, also known as intergeneric hybridization, has demonstrated encouraging promise for the generation of haploid embryos in triticale when crossed with maize. This strategy makes use of haploid induction, which eliminates the genetic material of maize from the hybrid embryo to produce haploid triticale embryos. Methods: The study was conducted at the LPU, School of Agriculture, Phagwara, Punjab, during the Rabi season of 2023-2024. The experimental materials included selected maize genotype (PMH 10) as pollen parent and Six triticale genotypes were used as female parents (IC 642724, IC 642662, IC 642661, EC 490146, EC 490148 and EC 490150) obtained from the NBPGR (New Delhi). The study investigates the effects of 2, 4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and silver nitrate on Haploid Embryo Induction in Triticale Following Wide Hybridization with Maize. Four treatment combinations of 2, 4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2, 4-D) and silver nitrate (AgNO3) were evaluated for their impact on haploid embryo induction. Result: The results showed that T4 (2, 4-D + AgNO3, 100 mg/l + 80 mg/l) followed by T3 (2, 4-D + AgNO3, 100 mg/l + 60 mg/l) was significant in inducing the formation of haploid embryos, suggesting the synergistic effect of 2, 4-D and AgNO3 in promoting haploid induction. However, no significant effect of individual triticale or maize genotypes was observed on the efficiency of haploid embryo induction. The findings contribute to a better understanding of the factors influencing haploid embryo induction in triticale through wide hybridization with maize and provide valuable insights for optimizing this technique.

Authors: Dyukarev E. A. , Veretennikova E. E. , Sabrekov A. F. , Kulik A. A. , Zarov E. A.
Published: December 2024

Aim: To study the dynamics of specific greenhouse gas (CO2 and CH4) fluxes in a ridge-and-moss oligotrophic bog complex in the middle taiga subzone of Western Siberia taking into account their spatial heterogeneity under the influence of environmental factors, to reveal the degree of influence of meteorological parameters on greenhouse gas fluxes, and to establish quantitative relationships between the observed fluxes of carbon dioxide and methane.
Methods: Greenhouse gas fluxes were measured using the chamber automatic monitoring system with eight transparent chambers and CO₂, CH₄ and H₂O gas analyzer.
Results: The mean values of CO2 and CH4 fluxes from bog surface were obtained; differences in the functioning of the ridge and the hollow are shown: median values of CO2 fluxes indicate a greater uptake on the ridge (-74.4 mgCO2/m2/h) than on the hollow (-52.7 mgCO2/m2/h); methane fluxes on the ridge (0.08 mgCH4/m2/h) are on average 20 times lower than on the hollow (2.76 mgCH4/m2/h). Correlation of greenhouse gas fluxes with environmental factors were revealed: the highest correlations were found with the intensity of incoming solar (r = -0.84 ÷ -0.91) and photosynthetically active radiation (r = -0.85 ÷ -0.92), air temperature (r = -0.51 ÷ -0.63) and relative air humidity (r = +0.56 ÷ +0.62).
Conclusions: Correlations between specific greenhouse gas fluxes were studied based on spatial and temporal flux variability data. Correlations between greenhouse gas fluxes are different at night and daytime, which is directly related to environmental factors.
Typology of Khānqāh Space in the Architecture of the Islamic Period of Īrān Until the Qājār Period
Authors: Nassiri Nigar , Hosseini Akram
Published: December 2024

The current study aims to investigate the typology of Īrānian Khānqāhs and to identify the architectural patterns of these spaces. Qualitative research methods and comparative analysis were employed. Numerous Khānqāhs of Īrān are currently either abandoned, destroyed, or located outside the borders of Īrān's political geography. In this study, all Īrānian Khānqāhs constructed up to the end of the Safavid period, which are located within the current political geography of the country, were examined. Either their structures or their architectural documents are still available. Due to the variety of types of Khānqāhs of the later period (Qajar), this study does not include them. The results show that their plans were more introverted than extroverted, with residential and devotional uses. They were classified into five types: 1) Khānqāh in Urban complex (Arsin), 2) Urban Khānqāh-Mosque, 3) Khānqāh-Tomb (Boqʿih), 4) Suburban Khānqāh-Zāwīyih and 5) Khānqāh-Village, based on scale and settlement quality in residential complexes. Their spatial patterns are also analyzed. The results showed that the architecture of the Khānqāhs follows three patterns including, Chāhār_Ṣoffih (four-platform), a dome, and a central courtyard. In this study, a general comparison was conducted between the architecture of Iranian Khanqahs and the secluded spaces in Christian architecture. Before the arrival of the Mongols in Iran, the common patterns in the architecture of mosques, mosque schools, tombs, or rabats of Iran were also used in the architecture of Khānqāhs. The prevalence of building churches in the Azerbaijan region of Iran, following the plurality and religious freedom of the Il-khānid period, caused the model of a small number of Khānqāhs to follow the model of Byzantine churches. The Khānqāh's architectural evolution reflects a deep respect for tradition, intricately weaving influences from diverse cultures. It plays a positive and harmonizing role as a unifying space for various religions.
Place Meaning in Malang City Peripheral Muslim Settlements: The Unexpected Role of Built Environment Aesthetics
Authors: Nazaruddin Farid , Setijanti Purwanita , Hayati Arina
Published: December 2024

Does the deep religiosity of Muslims significantly shape a neighborhood's meaning, or is it overshadowed by the visual appeal of the built environment? This question becomes relevant when the buildings' aesthetics do not embody the neighborhood's religiosity. To delve into this, research was carried out in the outlying settlements of Malang City, Indonesia, utilizing a mixed-method approach that blends qualitative methods such as observation and interviews with quantitative surveys. The qualitative approach validates the disconnection between the Islamic neighborhood religiosity and the built environment. Additionally, it identifies eight key factors influencing place meaning, encompassing neighborhood religiosity, the aesthetics of the built environment, social connections, and economic opportunities. Factor analysis highlighted that architectural features and qualities of the built environment had a more significant impact on residents' place meaning than the community's religious culture. Therefore, the aesthetic appeal of buildings plays a significantly more significant role in shaping residents' sense of belonging than the Islamic neighborhood religiosity. This unexpected finding challenges traditional assumptions about the strength of Muslim demography and Islamic religiosity in shaping place meaning. It urges urban planners, legislators, and architects to prioritize the aesthetic quality of the built environment when fostering vibrant and meaningful communities for Muslim residents.
Islamic Contemporary Architecture as an Approach for Social Sustainability in the Urban Parks Development
Authors: Abowardah Eman S.
Published: December 2024

Reviving Islamic urban heritage while enhancing contemporary identity is an important goal in all Islamic countries. Historical places can be an important part of society instead of being a burden, and they can be redeemed as cultural assets that can be used for their original function. Accordingly, this study focuses on the Al-Azhar Park project, considered one of the pioneering sustainable urban development projects recently opened in Cairo, Egypt. It is a promising restoration attempt to establish public parks by improving the cultural, social, and economic aspects of the adjacent Islamic historical area. Hence, this study aims to highlight a potential approach for designing sustainable parks by documenting one of the leading Islamic contemporary urban development projects. The study follows a descriptive and analytical research method by analyzing the integrity between architectural features in Al-Azhar Islamic Park and the historic Islamic urban around it. The aim is to show how landscape design can be used as a tool to enhance behavioral responses and activities. The results show that the bottom-up development method is the most effective strategy that prioritizes the local community's needs while restoring the Islamic historical sites and creating new functions suitable to generate the necessary income for the buildings and respond to the local community needs.

Published: December 2024

This research aims to answer three questions: how Islamic and positive law view interfaith marriage, what factors underlie the occurrence of interfaith marriages in Indonesia, and the reasons behind the issuance of Supreme Court Circular (SEMA) Number 2 of 2023. This study employs a normative or doctrinal legal research method, which examines documents and written regulations. The approaches used are the statutory approach and the conceptual approach. The research findings indicate that both Islamic law and positive law in Indonesia share a similar stance, which is to prohibit interfaith marriages as well as marriages with individuals who have no religion. The underlying factors for interfaith marriages in Indonesia include globalization, the modernization of values, family dynamics, socio-economic changes, and religious tolerance. As for the reasons behind the issuance of SEMA Number 2 of 2023, they are driven by the increasing number of interfaith marriage cases in Indonesia, the lack of clarity in existing regulations, alignment with human rights principles, the need to provide legal certainty, reducing the burden on courts, and harmonization with international law

Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemahaman dan praktik cadar di kalangan mahasiswi sangat bervariasi. Beberapa mahasiswi yang telah mengenakan cadar sebelum kuliah dipengaruhi oleh latar belakang keluarga dan pendidikan di pondok pesantren, sedangkan yang memutuskan untuk memakai cadar setelah kuliah dipengaruhi oleh interaksi dengan teman dan lingkungan kampus. Kesimpulan penelitian ini menegaskan bahwa meskipun ada perbedaan dalam pemahaman dan penerapan, penggunaan cadar di kalangan mahasiswi mencerminkan usaha mereka untuk menjalankan ajaran agama sesuai dengan interpretasi pribadi dan konteks sosial mereka.

This study analyzed parents’ satisfaction towards the facilities, child care service, and environment of hospital- affiliated Preschools in Taiwan. Suggestions were provided for hospital-affiliated Preschools to improve the service satisfaction. The research questionnaires for this study were distributed from September to November 2023, as the questionnaire survey method was adopted to study the service satisfaction of eight hospital-affiliated Preschools in Taiwan. A total of 1183 questionnaires were sent out, and 736 valid questionnaires were retrieved. The questionnaire was reviewed and revised by three experts. The overall Cronbach's Alpha was 0.968, and the data were statistically analyzed by SPSS.The results of the study revealed the following. There were no significant differences in all dimensions in terms of the demographic variables of age and occupation, while there were significant differences in the educational level for all dimensions.In terms of hospital location, it was found that the hospitals in the northern part of Taiwan were better than those in the southern part of Taiwan. The correlations between all the dimensions were found to be highly significant and positive in the analysis. The education and care dimension had the highest impact on the child care services. Parents attached the highest importance to the education and care dimension of child care services, so Preschools should do their best in terms of teacher qualifications, teaching methods, teaching materials and teaching aids in order to gain parents' trust. In addition, all dimensions were interlocked, so as long as one of the dimensions can be effectively improved, the other dimensions would also improve. It is suggested that all dimensions should be paid attention to and developed, so that not only the parents can see them, but also the children can grow up safely and happily, and service satisfaction could be greatly improved.
Havayolu Sektöründeki Stratejik Eğilimler: Bibliyometrik Bir İnceleme (Strategic Trends in the Airline Industry: A Bibliometric Review)
Authors: Durak Mehmet Şahin
Published: December 2024

Amaç –Artan rekabet, yapısal değişimler, teknolojik gelişmeler ve müşteri ihtiyaç ve beklentilerindeki değişimler havayollarını, zaman içinde yeni stratejiler geliştirmek zorunda bırakmıştır. Bu nedenle havayolu stratejileri bilimsel açıdan büyük ilgi görmüştür.Ancak mevcut literatürde havayolu stratejileri evrimini derinlemesine araştıran görselleştirilmiş bir bibliyometrik çalışma bulunmamaktadır. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, havayolu sektöründeki stratejik eğilimleri belirlemek ve bu eğilimlerin zaman içindeki değişimini anlamaktır.Yöntem –Bu çalışma, 1991 –2022 yılları arasında Web of Science (WoS) veri tabanında bulunan, havayolu stratejileri ile ilgili yapılan çalışmaların bibliyometrik bir analizini sunmaktadır. Analiz, Web of Science veri tabanından toplanan 471 çalışmayı kapsamaktadır. Havayolu stratejileri konusundaki literatürdeki yayın eğilimleri, en çok atıf alan makaleler, yayın yapan dergiler, en etkili yazarlar, ortak yazarlık ilişkileri ve anahtar kelimeler üzerinden detaylı bir değerlendirme sunulmuştur. Bu bağlamda VOSviewer programı ile ağ ve yoğunluk haritaları oluşturulmuştur. Bulgular –Sonuçlar, havayolu stratejileri üzerine yapılan çalışmaların özellikle son birkaç yılda arttığını ve atıf sayılarına göre en etkili makaleler arasında "Attention as the mediator between top management team characteristics and strategic change: The case of airline deregulation" başlıklı çalışmanın ön plana çıktığını göstermektedir. Yazar atıf analizi sonuçlarına göre ise, Theresa Cho, Donald Hambrick ve James Liou'nun havayolu stratejileri literatüründeki önemli çalışmalarını vurgulamaktadır.Tartışma –Literatür taraması, havayolu sektöründe stratejik yönetimin giderek daha fazla önem kazandığını ve araştırmacıların bu konuya olan ilgisinin arttığını göstermektedir. Bu çalışmanın, havayolu stratejileri literatürüne ilgi duyan akademisyenler ve uygulayıcılar için değerli bir kaynak olacağı ve gelecekte yapılacak araştırmalara rehberlik edeceği düşünülmektedir.
Döngüsel Tüketim Ölçeği Geliştirme Çalışması (Circular Consumption Scale Development Study)
Authors: Aydın Kanlıtepe Melek , Özgül Engin
Published: December 2024

Amaç–Döngüsel ekonomiye tüketici kabulü açısından bakan çalışmalar literatürde sınırlı sayıdadır. Ancak sürdürülemez olan doğrusal ekonominin gerektirdiği dönüşümün gerçekleşmesinde tüketici davranışları önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, döngüsel ekonomide tüketici davranışlarını inceleyerek oluşturulan madde havuzunun keşfedici faktör analizi ve doğrulayıcı faktör analizleriyle sınanarak geçerliği ve güvenirliği ortaya konulmuş bir döngüsel tüketim ölçeği geliştirmektir.Yöntem–İki farklı örneklemde Keşfedici Faktör Analizi (KFA) ile yeni bir örneklemde Doğrulayıcı Faktör Analizi (DFA) gerçekleştirilmiştir. Analizlerde KFA için SPSS ve DFA için AMOS programları kullanılmıştır.Bulgular–Araştırma kapsamında geliştirilen döngüsel tüketim tanımı; kaynak kullanımını optimize etmeyi hedefleyen, dolaşımdaki mevcut ürünlerin kullanım yoğunluğunu arttırmaya yönelik alternatiflere odaklanan ve kullanım ömrü dolan ürünleri dönüştürerek yeniden döngüye katacak davranışlar göstermek şeklindedir. Analizler sonucunda altı boyutlu 25 maddeli bir yapı ortaya konulmuştur. Bu kapsamda döngüsel tüketim davranışları; tüketimi azaltma, çevreci tüketim tercihi, bakım ve koruma davranışı, ihtiyacın ürünlerin kullanım yoğunluğunu arttıracak çözümlerle giderilmesi, geri dönüşüm ve ileri dönüşüm olmak üzere altı davranıştan oluşmaktadır. Tartışma–Literatürde döngüsel ekonomideki tüketici davranışları özelinde bir ölçek bulunmamaktadır. Bununla beraber araştırmanın bulguları, literatürde keşifsel nitelik taşıyan çalışmalarla uyumlu olmakla birlikte (Balıkçıoğlu ve Kanlıtepe, 2022; Maitre-Ekern veDalhammar, 2019) bir boyut olarak öngörülen döngüyü sürdürme boyutu geri dönüşüm ve ileri dönüşüm şeklinde iki ayrı boyut olarak ortaya çıkmıştır.

Authors: Yakışır Cebrail
Published: December 2024

Amaç –Bu çalışma, okul müdürlerinin karizmatik liderlik nitelikleri ile öğretmenlerin okula bağlılık düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemeyi hedeflemektedir. Yöntem –Bu araştırmada, nicel analiz yöntemleri kullanılarak ilişkisel tarama yöntemiyle değişkenler arasındaki ilişkiler incelenmiştir. Veri toplama sürecinde Ankara ilindeki devlet okullarında görev yapan 391 öğretmene rastgele örnekleme yöntemiyle ulaşılmıştır.Anketler Google Forms aracılığıyla çevrimiçi olarak dağıtılmıştır. Araştırmanın temel amacı, öğretmenlerin örgütsel bağlılık düzeylerini ve liderlerinin karizmatik liderlik özelliklerini belirlemektir.Bulgular –Bulgular, karizmatik liderlik ile öğretmenlerin okula bağlılığı arasında pozitif ve anlamlı bir ilişki olduğunu göstermektedir. Ayrıca, öğretmenlerin cinsiyet, yaş ve meslekte çalışma süresi gibi demografik özelliklerinin de karizmatik liderlik algıları veokula bağlılıkları üzerinde etkili olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Kadın öğretmenlerde değişime açıklık görülse de örgütsel bağlılık düzeyleri erkeklerden düşüktür. Genç ve az deneyimli öğretmenlerde değişime daha yatkınlık vurgulanmıştır. Eğitim seviyesi ve okul kademesi liderlik ve bağlılık üzerinde etkili değildir. Karizmatik liderlik ile öğretmenlerin bağlılık düzeyleri arasında pozitif ilişki belirtilmiştir. Sonuçlar, yöneticilerin liderlik becerilerini güçlendirmeleri ve değişime açık kültürlerin teşvik edilmesi gerektiğini ortaya koymaktadır. Tartışma –Araştırma bulgularına dayanarak, okul müdürleri için karizmatik liderlik eğitimleri düzenlenmeli, yenilikçi bir okul kültürü teşvik edilmelidir. Genç öğretmenlere mentorluk sağlanmalıdır. Kadın öğretmenler için iş-yaşam dengesini destekleyici esnek çalışma saatleri sunulmalıdır. Bu öneriler, öğretmenlerin bağlılığını ve eğitim kalitesini artırabilir.
