Published: December 2023

As the level of vehicle automation increases, drivers are more likely to engage in non-driving related tasks which take their hands, eyes, and/or mind away from the driving task. Consequently, there has been increased interest in creating Driver Monitoring Systems (DMS) that are valid and reliable for detecting elements of driver state. Workload is one element of driver state that has remained elusive within the literature. Whilst there has been promising work in estimating mental workload using gaze-based metrics, the literature has placed too much emphasis on point estimate differences. Whilst these are useful for establishing whether effects exist, they ignore the inherent variability within individuals and between different drivers. The current work builds on this by using a Bayesian distributional modelling approach to quantify the within and between participants variability in Information Theoretical gaze metrics. Drivers (N = 41) undertook two experimental drives in hands-off Level 2 automation with their hands and feet away from operational controls. During both drives, their priority was to monitor the road before a critical takeover. During one drive participants had to complete a secondary cognitive task (2-back) during the hands-off Level 2 automation. Changes in Stationary Gaze Entropy and Gaze Transition Entropy were assessed for conditions with and without the 2-back to investigate whether consistent differences between workload conditions could be found across the sample. Stationary Gaze Entropy proved a reliable indicator of mental workload; 92% of the population were predicted to show a decrease when completing 2-back during hands-off Level 2 automated driving. Conversely, Gaze Transition Entropy showed substantial heterogeneity; only 66% of the population were predicted to have similar decreases. Furthermore, age was a strong predictor of the heterogeneity of the average causal effect that high mental workload had on eye movements. These results indicate that, whilst certain elements of Information Theoretic metrics can be used to estimate mental workload by DMS, future research needs to focus on the heterogeneity of these processes. Understanding this heterogeneity has important implications toward the design of future DMS and thus the safety of drivers using automated vehicle functions. It must be ensured that metrics used to detect mental workload are valid (accurately detecting a particular driver state) as well as reliable (consistently detecting this driver state across a population).
‘I’m an upper caste myself, I have to say that’: caste identities in making claims about casteism
Authors: Sambaraju Rahul
Published: December 2023

In this paper I examine the construction caste-related identities in negotiating casteism. Much work in social psychology has examined inter-caste attitudes and the reasons for caste-prejudice. Little work however has examined how individuals construct, negotiate and challenge ascriptions of caste identities. In this study I take-up such a focus in the context of a protest about caste-based discrimination. This context made caste and related issues very salient and allowed for various formulations of caste identities. I conducted interviews with 20 participants at the site of the protest. Using discursive psychology, I focused on the constructions of caste identities and the actions accomplished in doing so. The findings show that, first, discussions about caste were routinely framed in relation to interviewees’ caste identity. This was not the case for those who were Dalits. Second, caste identities were treated as a resource in recognizing casteism in educational settings. Third, caste identities were constructed in ways to offer ostensible challenges to casteism. Overall findings suggest that caste identities are central means by which matters of caste and casteism are negotiated.
The effect of hippocampal subfield damage on rapid temporal integration through statistical learning and associative inference
Authors: Marlatte Hannah , Belchev Zorry , Fraser Madison , Gilboa Asaf
Published: December 2023

Introduction: The hippocampus (HPC) supports integration of information across time, often indexed by associative inference (AI) and statistical learning (SL) tasks. In AI, an indirect association between stimuli that never appeared together is inferred, whereas SL involves learning item relationships by extracting regularities across experiences. A recent model of hippocampal function (Schapiro et al., 2017) proposes that the HPC can support temporal integration in both paradigms through its two distinct pathways. Methods: We tested this models’ predictions in four patients with varying degrees of bilateral HPC damage and matched healthy controls, with two patients with complementary damage to either the monosynaptic or trisynaptic pathway. During AI, participants studied overlapping paired associates (AB, BC) and their memory was tested for premise pairs (AB) and for inferred pairs (AC). During SL, participants passively viewed a continuous picture sequence that contained an underlying structure of triplets that later had to be recognized. Results: Binomial distributions were used to calculate above chance performance at the individual level. For AI, patients with focal HPC damage were impaired at inference, but could correctly infer pairs above chance once premise pair acquisition was equated to controls. However, the patient with HPC and cortical damage showed severe impairment at recalling premise and inferred pairs, regardless of accounting for premise pair performance. For SL, none of the patients performed above chance, but notably neither did most controls. Conclusions: Associative inference of indirect relationships can be intact with HPC damage to either hippocampal pathways or the HPC more broadly, provided premise pairs can first be formed. Inference may remain intact through residual HPC tissue supporting premise pair acquisition, and/or through extra-hippocampal structures supporting inference at retrieval. Clear conclusions about hippocampal contributions to SL are precluded by low performance in controls, which we caution is not dissimilar to previous amnesic studies using the same task. This complicates interpretations, therefore common use of a reliable task is needed before conclusions can be drawn about the necessity of hippocampal contributions to SL.
Vegetarian, vegan, or plant-based? Comparing how different labels influence consumer evaluations of plant-based foods
Authors: Ruby Matthew , Graça João , Olli Eero
Published: December 2023

Market actors have a role to play in enabling sustainable food transitions. One challenge for these actors is how to promote plant-based foods in ways that appeal to a growing number of consumers. Here we test how different plant-based related labels affect consumer appraisals of a range of foods (cookies, sausages, cheese, chocolate, pasta). In two studies (pre-registered; NUSA=1148, NGermany=491), we examined the effects of a ‘vegetarian’, ‘vegan’, or ‘plant-based’ label (compared to no label) on five attributes (healthy, tasty, ethical, pure, environmentally friendly) related to the products. We also measured self-reported likelihood to purchase the products. Overall, the results indicated that the ‘plant-based’ label was slightly more appealing to participants than the ‘vegetarian’ and ‘vegan’ labels. However, contrary to our expectations, neither consumers’ information-seeking tendencies nor their pre-existing attitudes toward plant-based foods influenced (i.e., moderated) the effects of the labels. Anticipated taste was a strong and consistent predictor of purchase likelihood for all labelled products, but the ethical and pure attributes also accounted for unique variance in this outcome variable. Taken together, our findings and discussion provide insights into the role of labels and label terminology on consumer appraisals of plant-based foods.
Intergenerational Poverty Persistence in Europe - Is There a ‘Great Gatsby Curve’ for Poverty?
Authors: Bavaro Michele , Carranza Rafael , Nolan Brian
Published: December 2023

While the influence of poverty in childhood on adulthood outcomes has been extensively studied, little is known about how the strength of intergenerational persistence in poverty itself varies across countries. Here we examine the intergenerational persistence of poverty in a comparative analysis of 30 European countries using data from the 2019 ad hoc module of the EU-SILC dataset. We construct proxy measures of poverty in the parental household employing information on inability to meet basic needs and financial hardship when growing up, together with parental education and occupational social class. The strength of the association between current poverty based on the indicators at the core of the EU’s social inclusion process and these measures of parental poverty is assessed and compared across countries. The cross-country variation in poverty persistence is probed including with respect to its relationship with the current and past extent of poverty: persistence tends to be stronger where current or parental poverty are higher, analogous to the Great Gatsby Curve relating intergenerational income mobility to income inequality at country level. Mediation analysis highlights the role of own education as well as occupation in underpinning the observed relationship between current and parental poverty.

Authors: Jackson Christen G. , Carpenter Abigail , England Katie
Published: December 2023

The month of June is known as 'June Dairy Month' and therefore, the Iowa State University (ISU) Dairy Farm Open House took place on June 10th, 2022. The purpose of the ISU Dairy Farm Open House was to invite the public, free of charge, to come and visit the ISU Dairy Research and Teaching Unit in order to learn more about the dairy industry's commitment to animal care, to observe how a modern-day dairy operation functions on a daily basis, and to celebrate and learn about all things dairy. Hence, throughout the event, visitors were able to: consume a variety of safe, wholesome, and nutritious dairy products; learn about cow comfort and the various management practices that are in place on dairy farms to assure that all dairy animals are cared for with the utmost care, view a live milking parlor demonstration and learn about the proper steps dairy farms follow in order to harvest milk properly and safely from dairy cows, and participants received a driving tour of the dairy farm. Tours of the ISU Dairy Farm were provided by research faculty and graduate students who have a deep understanding of dairy production and management and therefore, they were able to further enlighten guests on common feeding strategies used for the dairy herd, discuss the dairy industry's commitment to sustainable farming practices, and environmental stewardship. At the end of the driving tour, guests were transported to the 'Ag Discovery Center' to learn more about agriculture throughout Iowa from a variety of commodity groups within the state. An optional, post-even survey (Table 1) was distributed to gauge visitor perception of the dairy industry. Of those who completed the survey (81 respondents), 94% of visitors indicated having a positive or very positive perception of the dairy industry. Also, 98% of respondents indicated they would attend this event in the future, and respondents unanimously indicated they would recommend this event to someone else. Thus, moving forward, there is a continued desire by the public for ISU to continue planning and hosting the ISU Dairy Farm Open House. Due in part because this event is an excellent opportunity for all in involved to continue educating and promoting dairy to the public in order to ensure a thriving dairy industry in the years to come.

An application of the biopsychosocial model for pain in Canadian Veterans Life After Service Studies 2019 survey
Authors: Reyes-Vélez Julián , Buchanan Erin , Pavlacic Jeffrey , Sweet Jill , Garland Baird Lisa
Published: December 2023

LAY SUMMARY

Chronic pain continues to be a highly prevalent condition among Canadian Veterans. This study applied the biopsychosocial framework to chronic pain, using different structural equation modelling solutions. This approach allowed for assessment of all factors simultaneously with a model with latent variables. One of the model solutions showed demographic variables do not predict chronic pain. However, these variables should be used to control the modelling process because of their statistical differences. Moreover, biological factors, such as an increased number of physical problems, increased the likelihood of having chronic pain. Psychosocial factors showed increased scores for not having chronic pain.
International experience in the use of alternative energy sources (within the European Union)

Published: December 2023

The relevance of the chosen subject is due to the problem of the lack of conventional energy resources in the global and Ukrainian energy sectors. This problem is caused by a combination of external factors (outdated technologies, lack of oil, coal, and gas reserves) and internal factors, such as Russia’s military aggression against Ukraine, and its manipulative policy towards other countries, which encourages the European community to look for other options to ensure energy security. This gave a new urgency to the issue of activating the development of alternative energy. The purpose of the study is to analyse international experience in the use of alternative (renewable) energy and formulate conceptual methods and approaches to solving global energy problems. A combination of general scientific methods was used, primarily dialectical, analytical, concrete-sociological, and from special legal methods – comparative legal. The results obtained indicate that the use of alternative energy sources in the European Union countries will continue to develop in the future. Based on data from Regulatory Indicators for Sustainable Energy, it is confirmed that Denmark, Germany, and the Republic of Poland are currently the leaders in the use of renewable energy sources in the EU countries. The study analyses the successful experience of these countries in the use of renewable energy sources. It is concluded that there is a dynamic in the development of alternative energy sources in European countries, but in order for alternative energy sources to fully compete with conventional energy sources, it is necessary to maintain and regulate incentives for increasing the use of renewable energy sources at the national level. The practical value of the study lies in the fact that its results can serve as recommendations for increasing the share of alternative energy sources in Ukraine

A Multi-Dimensional Analysis of a Modernist Work Composed in Captivity: Olivier Messiaen, "Quartet for the End of Time"
Authors: DERE Sercan , NURCAN Onur
Published: December 2023

French composer Olivier Messiaen, who joined the French army as a medic in the Second World War, was imprisoned by the Germans as a prisoner of war in Görlitz's Stalag VIII A camp in June 1940. Because he did not actively fight in the war as a medic, a German officer sympathized with Messiaen, secretly delivering him paper, pencils and erasers and even having a room in the rectory cleared for him to compose. Quatuor pour la fin du temps (Quartet for the End of Time) was composed in such an environment. The fact that the piece includes a non-standard instrumental combination consisting of piano, cello, violin, and clarinet as a quartet is a result of the existing instruments in the camp and the presence of competent musicians playing them. The structural design of the work includes both musical and mystical qualities on the axis of Messiaen's personal belief. The work, which consists of eight parts in total, symbolizes timelessness, that is, eternity, by depicting the seven days of creation and the eighth day when God rests, as represented in the Bible. The premiere of the work took place on January 15, 1941, in front of an audience of four thousand prisoners and guards. In this article, the non-musical motivations and the composition techniques used in the work titled Quatuor pour la fin du temps are examined in relation to each other. The main purpose of the research is to discover the determining effects of the non-musical motivation, which guides the compositional process of the work, on the musical elements of the work. In addition to some technical aspects such as Indian rhythms/Indian modes, Greek rhythms, medieval classical rhythmic principles, French organ music tradition, synthetic modes/synthetic rhythms, and total serialism, Quatuor pour la fin du temps is also analyzed in terms of phenomena and concepts such as Catholicism, ornithology, and synesthesia. In the Introduction chapter, Messiaen's life is summarized on the basis of his personality as a composer, the compositional process of the Quartet is reviewed in the historical framework, and the research purpose, including the research methods used in this article are explained. In the following chapters, all movements of the Quartet are analyzed one by one. The compositional techniques used by the composer are examined in detail through the written out (text) analysis of the musical passages detailing them with footnotes whenever necessary, and these prose analyses are supported by musical examples of the relevant musical passages quoted from the Quartet’s score. The Conclusion chapter consists of the inferences and evaluations made from the findings.

Authors: DEMİRİZ Serap , ENGİN Kübra
Published: December 2023

Öğrencilerin akademik hayatları boyunca derslere karşı benimsedikleri yaklaşımlar, ortaya koydukları davranış örüntüleri çeşitlilik göstermektedir. Bu çeşitlilik üzerinde etkili olan değişkenlerden bazıları da akademik erteleme ve akademik mükemmeliyetçilik durumlarıdır. Bu koşullar öğrencilerin derslere olan ilgileri, dersler verilen görevlere yönelik tutumları, görevleri yerine getirme şekil ve zamanları üzerinde etkilidir. Bu kapsamda bu araştırmanın amacı, okul öncesi eğitimi bölümü öğretmen adaylarının akademik erteleme davranışı düzeylerini saptamak ile akademik erteleme ve akademik mükemmeliyetçilik ile ilgili algılarını ve görüşlerini belirlemektir. Bu araştırma karma modellerden açımlayıcı sıralı desende tasarlanmıştır. Araştırmanın nicel aşamasında tarama modeli; nitel aşamasında temel nitel araştırma deseni kullanılmıştır. Araştırma kapsamında 2017-2018 yılı Gazi Üniversitesi Okul Öncesi Eğitimi bölümü 2. sınıf öğrencileri ile çalışılmıştır. Nicel aşamanın çalışma grubunu bu öğrencilerden uygun örnekleme yoluyla belirlenen (araştırmacıların yürüttüğü Özel Öğretim Yöntemleri dersine devam eden) 17 öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Çalışma grubundaki öğrencilerin 16’sı kadın 1’i erkektir. Araştırmanın nitel aşamasını ise amaçlı örnekleme yöntemlerinden aşırı ve aykırı durum örnekleme yöntemi ile bu öğrencilerin arasından belirlenen 10 öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak, Akademik Erteleme Davranışı Ölçeği, Öğrenci Değerlendirme Formu ve yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşme formu kullanılmıştır. Öğretmen adayları akademik mükemmeliyetçiliğin akademik başarılarına katkı sağlarken yıpratıcı bir özellik olduğunu; bu özelliğin sosyal yaşantılarını etkilediğini belirtmişlerdir. Özellikle akademik görevlerinin yoğun olması, bu görevleri anlayamamaları, yurtlarının kalabalık olması ve çalışacak alan bulamamaları gibi nedenler dolayısıyla erteleme davranışına daha çok yöneldiklerini ifade etmişlerdir. Katılımcılar akademik görevlerinin sosyal yaşantılarını etkilemediğini, sosyal yaşantıları nedeniyle akademik erteleme davranışı gösterdiklerini de belirtmişlerdir. Görüşmeler sonucunda, dersten sorumlu eğitimcilerin tutum ve davranışlarının akademik göreve karşı tutumlarında belirleyici olduğu, özellikle devam zorunluluğu ve ödev yoğunluğu olan derslere katılımlarının azaldığı, bu durumlarda yalnızca dersi geçmek amacında olduklarını ifade etmişlerdir.

Published: December 2023

Bu çalışmada 1990-2020 döneminde Türkiye’de hırsızlık, yağma ve dolandırıcılık suçlarından hapse giren mahkûmların coğrafi açıdan incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Nicel ve nitel araştırma yöntemleri kullanılan çalışmada çoklu bir doğrusal regresyon analizi de yapılmıştır. Belirtilen dönemde Türkiye’de sözü edilen suçlar sebebiyle 708.982 kişi hapse girmiştir. Buna göre 31 yıllık süreçte Türkiye’de hapse girenlerin %20,1’ini belirtilen suçlar sebebiyle mahkûm olanlar oluşturmaktadır. Özellikle 2011 yılı sonrasında belirtilen suçlardan hapse girenlerin oranında bir artış gözlemlenmektedir. Nitekim 2011’den sonraki 9 yıllık süreçte sözü edilen suçlar sebebiyle hapse girenlerin senelik ortalaması (46.972) neredeyse 2021 yılındaki Faroe Adaları’nın nüfusu kadardır. Belirtilen dönemde söz konusu suçlardan hapse giren hükümlülerin %95,38’i erkeklerden, %4,62’si ise kadınlardan oluşmuştur. Ayrıca çalışmada belirtilen suçlardan hapse girenlerin oranı ile üç tane bağımsız değişken (işsizlik oranı, il nüfuslarının ülke nüfusuna oranı, 2020 yılı itibarıyla ikamet edilen ile göre başka il nüfusuna kayıtlı olanların oranı) arasındaki ilişkiyi sorgulayan bir regresyon analizine de yer verilmiştir. Yapılan çoklu regresyon analizine göre başka il nüfusuna kayıtlı olanların oranı ile belirtilen suçlardan hapse girenler arasında çok yüksek düzeyde istatistiki açıdan anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmuştur. Buna göre il nüfusu içinde ne kadar başka il nüfusuna kayıtlı olanların oranı yükselirse o kadar belirtilen suçlardan hapse girenlerin oranının arttığını söylemek mümkündür. Bu da hırsızlık, yağma ve dolandırıcılık suçlarının en kolay kozmopolit illerde işlendiğini göstermektedir.
Osmanlı döneminde Gemlik, Gönen ve Manyas’ta nüfus ve tarımsal yapı: Merkezi devletin ürün talepleri çerçevesinde bir inceleme

Published: December 2023

Bu çalışmada, Osmanlı arşiv belgelerine dayalı olarak 19. yüzyıl ortalarında Gemlik, Gönen ve Manyas’ta tarımsal yapının temel özellikleri incelenmektedir. Bu üç kazaya ait aşar tahsil bilgilerinden hareketle ne tür ürünlerin yetiştirildiği belirlenmiş ve ayrıca aşar miktarlarının on katı alınarak toplam üretim rakamları tahmin edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Makalede tarımsal üretim miktarını doğrudan etkileyen bir faktör olması nedeniyle, üç kazada nüfusun yapısı üzerine kısa bir inceleme de yapılmaktadır. On dokuzuncu yüzyıl ortalarına ait verilere göre Gemlik’te 12.000, Gönen’de 7.700 ve Manyas’ta 3.700 civarında bir nüfusun yaşadığı anlaşılmaktadır. Gemlik’te Rum ve Ermenilerden müteşekkil kalabalık bir gayrimüslim nüfus da bulunmaktaydı. Gönen ve Manyas’ta ise az sayıda Rum nüfus yaşıyordu. Gemlik arazi yapısının etkisiyle bağcılık, zeytincilik ve meyve üretiminde öne çıkıyordu. Gönen ve Manyas’ta ise hububat üretimi daha yüksek miktarda gerçekleşmekteydi. Merkezi hükümet, ağırlaşan iaşe sorunlarının etkisiyle özellikle on sekizinci yüzyılın sonlarından itibaren hem ordunun hem de İstanbul halkının ihtiyaçlarını karşılamak için bu üç kazadan buğday, arpa, zeytin, kereste, orman ürünleri, saz, üzüm ve yaş meyve gibi mamuller talep ediyordu. Bu taleplerin, piyasa fiyatlarıyla yapılması ölçüsünde, bölgedeki tarımsal üretimi olumlu yönde etkilediği düşünülebilir.
Büyükbaş hayvanlarda amortisman işlemlerinin VUK ve TMS kapsamında karşılaştırmalı olarak incelenmesi ve taslak hesap planına göre muhasebe uygulamaları
Authors: ÖZULUCAN Abitter , MERDANE Şaban
Published: December 2023

Tüm dünyada olduğu gibi Türkiye’de de hem tarımsal faaliyetlerin bütünü hem de bu bütün içerisinde büyükbaş hayvan yetiştiriciliği, özellikle et ve süt üretimi açısından, insanlığın yaşamını idame ettirebilmesi ve ekonomik nedenlerle dikkate değer biçimde önem göstermektedir. Bu sebeple bu çalışmada tarımsal faaliyetler içerisinde büyükbaş hayvanlarda amortisman konusu ele alınmıştır. Çalışmada öncelikle büyükbaş hayvan yetiştiriciliği ve amortisman konusunda genel bilgiler verilmiş, daha sonra süt üretimi ve damızlık olarak işletmede yararlanılmak üzere bulundurulan büyükbaş hayvanlarda amortisman ve muhasebe işlemleri Vergi Usul Kanunu (VUK) ve Türkiye Muhasebe Standartları (TMS) açısından teorik ve uygulamalı olarak irdelenmiştir. Örneklerin seçiminde uygulamada karşılaşılan ve sıkça sorulan sorular dikkate alınmıştır. Çalışmanın ilerleyen bölümlerinde ise, maddi duran varlıklarda (dolayısıyla işletme faaliyetlerinde kullanılmak üzere tutulan büyükbaş hayvanlarda) amortisman işlemlerinin VUK ve TMS açısından karşılaştırılabilmesi için tablo düzenlenmiştir. Böylece her iki düzenlemenin amortisman konusuna bakış açısı, benzer ve farklı yönleri net olarak ifade edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışmanın son bölümünde ise, özellikle uygulama yapan kişilere örnek teşkil etmesi açısından büyükbaş hayvan yetiştiriciliği yapan bir tarım işletmesinde VUK ve TMS’ye göre örnek muhasebe uygulamalarına yönelik dönem içi ve dönem sonu muhasebe kayıtları yapılmıştır. Muhasebeleştirme işlemlerinde Tekdüzen Hesap Planı (THP)’nın birçok konuda olduğu gibi tarımsal faaliyetlerin muhasebeleştirilmesi (örneğin, canlı varlıkların kayıtlanması ve net gerçeğe uygun değerlemeye tabi tutulması durumunda ortaya çıkacak değerleme farklarının muhasebeleştirilmesinde uygun bir hesabın olmaması gibi) konusunda da yetersiz olması nedeniyle gelecekte ülkemizde uygulanması planlanan Finansal Raporlama Standartlarına Uygun Hesap Planı Taslağı’ndan yararlanılmıştır.
Kent araştırmalarında sosyolojik bir kavram olarak yeniden ölçeklenme: İstanbul kent-bölgesinin oluşumu ve Balıkesir’e etkisi
Authors: KIZILTEPE Betül
Published: December 2023

Ulus devletler, 1980 sonrası sermaye birikiminde avantajlı yeni mekânlar oluşturarak, küresel dinamiklerin merkezinde yer alan kentleri ve kent-bölgeleri birikim için öne çıkararak yeniden ölçeklenme sürecinin katalizörü hâline gelmiştir. Bu süreçte kentsel müdahaleler yoğunlaşırken bölgede eşitsiz gelişim ortaya çıkmıştır. Eşitsiz gelişimin ve beraberinde mekânsal patlamaların yaşandığı kent-bölgelerde bölge ayrıcalığının ve rekabet potansiyelinin korunması için mekânsal bir iş bölümü yaratılır. Yeni iş bölümünde kentlerin işlevleri farklılaşmaya başlar. Küresel ve yerel dinamikler birlikte hareket eder. Böylece yeni ölçeklenmeler yaratılır. Bu bağlamda Türkiye’deki kentlerin de küresel ve bölgesel ölçekli değişimlerden etkilendiği görülmektedir. Eleştirel kent teorisini odağına alan bu çalışma, Türkiye’deki kent-bölge oluşumunu, mekânsal strateji değişikliğini yeniden ölçeklenme bağlamında ele almaktadır. Türkiye’nin ekonomik belirleyiciliği olan İstanbul kent-bölgesinin oluşum süreci, Balıkesir’in bölgeye dâhil olması ve yeniden ölçeklenmesi analiz edilmektedir. Karma yöntemin kullanıldığı bu araştırmada, nicel ve nitel verilerden yararlanılarak yeniden ölçeklenme süreci çok yönlü bir şekilde irdelenmiştir. Nicel veri kapsamında istatistikî betimsel analizden ve ikincil veri kaynaklarından yararlanılmıştır. Nitel verilerin toplanmasında Balıkesir’in değişimine tanık, değişiminde etkin olan 33 aktörle mülakat yapılmıştır. Mülakat verileri deşifre edildikten sonra MAXQDA programında temalara ayrılarak kodlanmış, analiz edilmiştir. Toplanan veriler neticesinde Balıkesir’in yeniden ölçeklenmesinde İstanbul kent-bölgesinin, merkezî yönetimin aldığı üst ölçekli kararların, yerel düzeydeki kentsel müdahalelerin etkisi olduğu görülmüştür. Balıkesir’e özgü dinamiklerin ise kentin rekabet ve ittifak potansiyelini dönüştürdüğü, kent içi rekabetin yüksek olması nedeniyle kentin atılım gösteremediği gözlemlenmiştir.
AUTOMATED TESTING OF WEB PROJECT FUNCTIONALITY WITH USING OF ERROR PROPAGATION ANALYSIS
Authors: Zasornova Iryna , Fedula Mykola , Pavlova Olga , Kysil Tetiana
Published: December 2023

Automated testing is indispensable in the area of software engineering, particularly for web project functionality, as the complexity of software systems continues to surge. This paper delves into the pivotal role of automated testing and how the integration of error propagation analysis, grounded in chaos theory, can elevate its efficacy. The objective is to elucidate the significance of this methodology and its application in bolstering the reliability and performance of web projects. Automated testing automates the execution of predefined test cases, offering efficiency gains, reduced human error, and swift defect detection in software development. Various testing approaches, including unit testing, integration testing, and regression testing, cater to distinct facets of software functionality, ensuring seamless operation of all components. Web project functionality is integral to the user experience, encompassing navigation menus, forms, and search features. Testing this functionality is imperative to unearth inconsistencies or errors that could compromise user satisfaction and task completion.
This paper proposes a methodology for automated testing coupled with error propagation analysis, which involves scrutinizing how errors evolve through a system over time. Chaos theory, a branch of mathematics examining complex systems' behavior, is employed to understand how minor variations in initial conditions can precipitate substantial system behavior shifts.
Traditional error propagation analysis hinges on linear, deterministic models, but real-world systems often exhibit non-linear, chaotic characteristics, rendering such models inadequate. Chaos theory's non-linear dynamics model the intricate interactions between input variables and their effects on outputs, capturing the sensitivity of chaotic systems to initial conditions. This approach appreciates system complexity and intricate feedback loops, enhancing error analysis's robustness and accuracy.

The presented issue is relevant because it calls for a thorough analysis of both the theoretical and practical aspects of guaranteeing land's inviolability in order to identify the critical elements that must be taken into account when putting legislative measures into place to guarantee the inviolability of private property in the context of contemporary economic conditions. The aim of the research is to consider practical and theoretical aspects of ensuring the inviolability of land as an integral component of land ownership relations. The combination of systematic analysis of the features of legislative acts constructed in various countries, which determine various aspects of solving issues of protecting the inviolability of property, with an analytical investigation of the practical implementations of these provisions, forms the basis of the methodological approach to this study. The findings of the study indicate the importance of clear regulation of the protection of the inviolability of property by current legislative provisions and the need to implement these provisions in everyday practice when resolving disputes on determining the principles of inviolability of property and its protection in individual cases. The authors suggest supplementing the current legislation of Ukraine with a number of provisions for better regulation of land ownership relations. The results obtained in the study and the conclusions formulated on their basis are essential for establishing the key principles that determine the inviolability of property and can be used in planning changes to the current legislation on the specific features of ensuring the inviolability of property as well as determining the degree of punishment for its violation.

A jog fegyelmező ereje és ellenállási stratégiák : Lakhatási szegénységben élők és a jog
Authors: Tóth Fruzsina Rozina
Published: December 2023

Azokban az esetekben, amikor egy önkormányzati vagy állami bérlakásban, lakhatási szegénységben élő embert a kilakoltatás veszélye fenyeget, akkor egy olyan, hatalmi értelemben aszimmetrikus helyzetben találja magát, amiben a másik fél minden szempontból erősebb helyzetben van, a tét pedig nem kisebb, mint az egyik legelemibb egzisztenciális szükséglet, a lakhatás. A tanulmányban Michel Foucault hatalomelméletén, valamint a kritikai jogelméleten és kulturalista jogtudati megközelítéseken keresztül azt vizsgálom, hogy milyen hatalmi dinamikák jelennek meg a kilakoltatási jogi-hatalmi eljárásokban egy narratív életútinterjún keresztül. Az önkormányzati vagy állami bérlakásban élő emberek helyzete különösen kiszolgáltatott, a lakás elvesztése szinte egyenes utat jelent a hajléktalanságba. Annak megértése, hogy egy kilakoltatási, jogi eljárásban milyen módon jelenik meg a hatalom, milyen eszközökhöz nyúl, milyen stratégiát alkalmaz, illetve hogyan reagál erre az egyén, segíthet feltérképezni a magyar társadalom szövetét átszövő hatalmi dinamikákat. Célom nem az, hogy általános közvetkeztetéseket tudjak levonni, csupán annyi, hogy olyan irányokat vázoljak, amely segíthet megérteni a hatalom működését.
