Research on Leukocyte Recognition Method Based on Convolutional Neural Network
Authors: Bin Zhou
Published: March 2023

There are various types of leukocytes in blood cells, and various types of leukocytes play an important role in fighting fungal, bacterial, viral and other infections in the human body, so studying and classifying leukocyte types is an important task for medical researchers. Based on the low efficiency and accuracy of traditional methods for detecting leukocytes, an efficient processing of leukocyte images using convolutional neural networks is proposed, which can perform tasks such as classification and localization of leukocytes. The proposed method and previous detection networks were also compared in experiments, and the experimental results proved that the proposed Yolov5 convolutional neural network has the highest detection speed and accuracy, with mAP reaching 86.47%.
Research on AGV Path Planning based on Improved A* algorithm
Authors: Lin Wang Sen
Published: March 2023

Path planning is an important field for AGV, and A* algorithm is one of the fastest shortest path algorithms, which is often used in a variety of path planning methods. This paper proposes an improved A* algorithm based on path planning in grid map, aiming at the low efficiency of traditional A* algorithm in searching the map and the existence of many redundant points and turning points in the path. The algorithm uses the weighted Manhattan distance as the heuristic function, and the coefficient changes with the distance. In addition, a turning penalty mechanism is added to the heuristic function to reduce the occurrence of turning points. Finally, a reduction strategy is added to the search function based on the location of the current point and the end point to reduce the search of redundant points. The results of python simulation experiments show that this improved A* algorithm can effectively reduce the redundant points and turns in the search, and improve the search efficiency and the smoothness of the path in the path planning.

Published: March 2023

This study aims to identify policies and practices for developing human resource competencies in TNI (Indonesian National Armed Forces) organizations and Ministries/Non-Ministerial Government Agencies. This study uses a qualitative approach with a multiple case study design. The research subjects were two organizations, namely the TNI and Ministries/Non-Ministerial Government Agencies. Data collection was carried out through literature studies. The collected data were then analyzed using thematic analysis techniques. The results of the analysis show that the TNI organization and the Ministries/Non-Ministry Government Agencies show ideas about the concept of career planning that can solve the problem of stagnation of positions in order to make the TNI Transformation successful in the future. Therefore, TNI organizations and Ministries/Non-ministerial Government Agencies need to continue to develop appropriate policies and practices in developing human resource competencies, as well as considering the constraints that occur. In the context of globalization and increasingly fierce competition, developing human resource competencies in government organizations is very important to support the achievement of organizational goals and improve the quality of public services.

Published: March 2023

The relevance of the article is caused by the lack of due attention to the law of growing needs. The article aims to show that the law can have negative consequences and to determine ways to overcome them. In the process of realizing this goal, systematic and historical approaches, methods of analysis and synthesis, and expert evaluations available in the literature were used. The content of the law of growing needs is a constant process of development and expansion of existing and the emergence and multiplication of new needs, which occurs in the course of the development of production and men and their imagination, causes quantitative and qualitative changes in the structure of consumption, and advances production. It also improves the existing ways to satisfy the needs and generates new ones. The article shows that in the process of the law of growing needs implementation, there are some phenomena indicating that this process also leads to negative changes in the system of consumer needs, in particular, to a steady expansion of the range of irrational needs, a certain mental infantilization of consumers, excessive credit indebtedness of the population, growth of individual and social frustration, and the emergence of the phenomenon of "consumer alienation". The emergence of an orientation towards the paradigm of balanced consumption is the reaction to the mentioned and other negative consequences of the growth of needs. It corresponds to some models of consumer behaviour, the main of which include ethical consumption, the greening of consumption, joint consumption, dematerialization of consumption, and conscious participation of the population in the consumption restrictions. The contents of these models are revealed. The controversy of the opinion regarding the fact that the range of consumer behaviour models corresponding to the paradigm of balanced consumption includes the active participation of consumers in the production of goods is emphasized. The definition of state consumer policy is formulated as the state policy aimed at the creation of favourable conditions for the saturation of the consumer market with high-quality and safe goods (works, services), regulation of the size, structure, and development trends of consumption by individuals, households, social groups, and the whole society, and improvement of the levels of consumer education and protection of consumer rights, health, and safety.

Resource productivity is among the most significant indicators of sustainable development. The article analyzes the main program documents of the EU and OECD, which regulate the assessment of resource management productivity, and also highlights the main methodological approaches to measuring resource productivity in member countries. The analysis of the existing methods of calculating the productivity of resources in Ukraine is carried out, their shortcomings are identified, and a comparison with the current methods used in the EU and OECD is made. The dynamics of resource productivity in comparison with GDP and domestic material consumption in the EU in 2000-2021 is studied. The article analyzes the resource productivity in the EU in 2021 by member countries, leaders and outsiders are determined, and countries are grouped according to the level of the specified indicator by the Pearson correlation coefficient. In view of the potential accession of Ukraine to the EU and OECD and joining the existing accounting systems in the future, the approbation of the application of the methodology used in the above-mentioned organizations is carried out, namely the calculation of resource productivity in Ukraine in 2017-2020 based on existing statistical data. An analysis of the obtained results is carried out. The article offers recommendations regarding the adaptation of the global experience of resource productivity calculation for the use of current methods at the regional level.

МЕТОДИЧНЕ ЗАБЕЗПЕЧЕННЯ АНАЛІЗУ ТА ОЦІНКИ РОЗВИТКУ ЦИРКУЛЯРНОЇ ЕКОНОМІКИ В ЄС
Authors: Олександр Шубалий  , Віктор Хомицький  , Світлана Мощич
Published: March 2023

У статті вивчено особливості методичного забезпечення аналізу та оцінки розвитку циркулярної економіки в країнах ЄС, яке розроблене Євростатом. Основна мета статті полягає у вивченні методичних підходів та результатів їх використання для аналізу та оцінки розвитку циркулярної економіки в країнах Європейського Союзу з позицій можливості їх подальшого використання в статистичній практиці в Україні для прискорення процесу євроінтеграції. Актуальність вирішення цієї наукової проблеми полягає в тому, що для України дуже важливо прискорити процес гармонізації вітчизняного інституціонального середовища до стандартів ЄС. Методологічним інструментарієм проведення дослідження стало вивчення методології Євростату для аналізу та оцінки розвитку циркулярної економіки, яка містить 10 ключових індикаторів, які поділяються на чотири групи й охоплюють такі напрямки: виробництво і споживання, поводження з відходами, вторинна сировина, конкурентоспроможність та інноваційність. До основних показників моніторингу та оцінки віднесено: діаграму Sankey матеріальних потоків у країнах ЄС, а також коефіцієнт циркуляції (кругообігу) матеріалів, які переробляються і повертаються назад в економіку. Об’єктом дослідження є методичні підходи, які використовує Євростат для аналізу та оцінки розвитку циркулярної економіки. У статті вивчено досвід Євростату щодо використання інструменту для візуалізації діаграми Sankey та її аналізу за різними критеріями, зокрема за основними типами матеріальних потоків (біомаса, металеві руди, неметалеві мінерали, викопні носії/матеріали енергії), що значно розширює можливості аналітики та прийняття ефективних рішень у цій сфері. Зроблено висновок, що для України важливо адаптувати та гармонізувати вітчизняну статистику відповідно до методичних підходів, визначених Євростатом, виділивши окремий напрямок – статистика розвитку циркулярної економіки. Результати дослідження можуть бути корисними для органів держаної статистики в Україні для адаптації методичних підходів, прийнятих у країнах ЄС щодо аналізу та оцінки розвитку циркулярної економіки, а також органів державної влади для імплементації у вітчизняне інституціональне середовище європейських принципів, концепцій та нормативних актів щодо стимулювання переходу до сталого зростання та розвитку циркулярної економіки, що сприятиме прискоренню процесу набуття повноправного членства України в Європейському Союзі.

The use of cohesive soils improved with lime as an example of circular economy in earthworks
Authors: Gosk Wojciech
Published: March 2023

A common practice in civil engineering during earthworks is the usual replacement of cohesive soils (fine soils), excavated during earthworks, with non-cohesive soils (coarse soils). Until recently, such a procedure was dictated primarily by economic and technical reasons. From an economic point of view, the ease of access and therefore low cost of using such soils instead of cohesive soils was crucial. The technical reason is, above all, the ease of compacting fine soils (as opposed to cohesive soils) and well-developed and well-known engineering methods for controlling their compaction.

The situation changed radically when the new environmental regulations came into force and enforcement by the inspection authorities began. Currently, soil removed from a construction site according to regulations should be classified as waste. This fact has completely changed the approach of participants in the construction process to the use of local soils, especially cohesive soils (e.g. clays). Their use "on site" has stopped being an expensive option and has become a necessity.

This paper presents aspects of the use of lime-improved cohesive soils that can be successfully used on site as excavation backfill. Problems related to the proper preparation of soil-lime composites are described, as well as the results of compaction tests. The paper presents the author's own methodology for selecting the content of quicklime in the soil-lime composite.
Numerical analysis of a steel frame in a fire situation
Authors: SZCZECINA Michał , NOWAK Katarzyna
Published: March 2023

In the paper, the stages of modelling of a steel frame under fire conditions were discussed. Numerical computations were performed using SIMULIA Abaqus software. The way of defining and developing the computational model was described. In the numerical procedure adopted in the paper, much attention was paid to formulas related to various types of the model parameters that depend on the fire temperature. The results were shown in a graphic form. They were compared with the results obtained from the analysis, in which the impact of elevated temperatures was disregarded. Based on numerical simulation results, an attempt was made to assess the effect of fire on the steel frame components. The paper is exploratory in character and provides an introduction to the issues related to the modelling of steel structure fires. The numerical modelling of the structure fire described in the paper can have practical potential for structural engineers.
The role of public procurement in implementing the circular economy in construction
Authors: PLEBANKIEWICZ Edyta
Published: March 2023

The aim of this paper is to analyse how Polish procurers are taking advantage of the opportunities for the development of the circular economy offered by the tools available through public procurement. Appropriate regulations to support the implementation of circular concepts in construction do exist, an example being the regulation governing the determination of life-cycle costs of buildings. However, it is not used by contracting authorities. The reasons for this can probably be found in the range of data that must be prepared in the contract documents in order to correctly calculate the individual values. At the same time, the regulation leaves little room for action by contractors, who can only propose extended guarantee periods and lower energy consumption.
Halting climate change by achieving net-zero CO2 emissions with circular and renewable energy sources
Authors: STASZEWSKI Tomasz
Published: March 2023

This study analyses the role of the circular economy (CE) and renewable energy sources (RES) in bringing human activity to a climate-neutral state. At the same time, it was pointed out that achieving this neutrality allows to achieve a net-zero level of CO2 emissions, as well as significantly reduces the emission of other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. In order to more fully illustrate the issue of climate change inhibition adopted for analysis in this article, the basic concepts, characteristics of the essence of circular economy and individual types of RES were defined, and it was also shown that the use of these methods in broadly understood human activity is necessary to achieve zero net CO2 emissions, which creates opportunities to stop "extreme climate madness".

The purpose of this article is to present the role of circular economy and renewable energy sources in achieving climate neutrality of human activity, as well as the influence of Putin's imperial policy on the course of this process.
“FATALIST”: PREDETERMINATION AND FREEDOM OF WILL AS FACTORS OF THE TEXT STRUCTURE
Authors:   Kharkov V. N. Karazin National University, Zaslavskii O.B.
Published: March 2023

The author of the article proposes a structural analysis of Lermontov’s short story “The Fatalist”. The main structural principles on which the artistic world of the Fatalist is built are discussed. It artistically explores the question of the presence or absence of determinism. Related to this is the idea of life as a repetition, with slight variations of the previous already known pattern, which in turn goes back to the archetype. On the other hand, other structural principles opposite to determinism operate in the work. This is uncertainty, ambiguity of images, interpretations of events and ambiguity of the events. In situations with a clear but ambiguous choice, this is the possibility of unpredictable outcomes. This makes the numerical binary code artistically significant. In particular, this concerns the role of the card game. Thus, Vulich’s meeting with a Cossack and the tragic death of Vulich can be described as a structural analogue of the game of “Shtoss”, where the correct identification of the object is required. The work refutes determinism and unambiguity, but confirms the very fact of the presence of patterns and the naturalness of repetitions of key elements, without which life itself is impossible.
LONELINESS IN THE SONG FOLKLORE ON MATRIMONIAL THEMES (ON THE MATERIAL OF BREST REGION)
Authors:   Brest State A. S. Pushkin University, Shved I. A.
Published: March 2023

The article analyzes folklore-song interpretation of loneliness and accompanying feelings in the context of actualization of certain cultural imperatives and genre scenarios related to marriage and subsequent family life, which is considered mainly from the position of problematization of the young daughter-in-law inclusion in it. The main attention is paid to hymeneal songs, nonceremonial lyrics and ballads on matrimonial themes, which model the transformation process of the lyrical heroine (ceremonial character) with the help of such conceptual codes as action, locative, ornithological, as well as using symbols of isolation-fencing, metamorphosis and inclusion of neophyte into a new group. The considered folklore texts (in their semiotic meaning) act as a peculiar language, often the only one legitimized by tradition, through which in real communication situations its «bearers» articulate the state of solitude, isolation of a bridegirl and young married woman, as well as related social and psychological problems and such feelings or states as longing, despondency, destitution, desolation, fear, hopelessness, suffering.
LITERARY SOURCES OF THE NARRATIVE REPERTOIRE OF A.K. BARYSHNIKOVA
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Alpatov S. V.
Published: March 2023

The article examines the problem of the genesis of two variants of the plot “About a Soldier” (recorded in 1925 and 1936) by the Voronezh storyteller A. K. Baryshnikova. A comparison of the folklore narrative with a number of Russian translations and adaptaions of Defoe’s novel “Robinson Crusoe” demonstrates that the source of the tale was the “Robinson the Younger” by I. Campe in the retelling of the teacher A. P. Serdobolsky edited by L. N. Tolstoy (1862; reprinted 1874, 1933). The results open up the prospect of a comparative analysis of the established literary original and texts by A. K. Baryshnikova in the aspect of transforming the conceptual and stylistic pattern of the primary source in context of the genre and cultural stereotypes of the storyteller.

Published: March 2023

Суха післяспиртова барда, що є побічним продуктом виробництва етилового спирту і біоетанолу може покращити забезпечення сільськогосподарських тварин дефіцитним протеїновим кормом. Проведеними дослідженнями розглянуто вплив сухої післяспиртової барди із зерна кукурудзи та розробленої на її основі кормової добавки на показники молочної продуктивності корів. При незначному збільшенні надою молока за період досліду, кормова добавка «Жиромол» в порівнянні із сухою післяспиртовою бардою у складі раціону дійних корів, забезпечила підвищення вмісту жиру на 0,29%, що дало можливість додатково отримати в середньому від корови 58 г молочного жиру за добу. Встановлено, що завдяки підвищенню жирномолочності у корів дослідної групи, надій молока в перерахунку на молоко базисної жирності перевищував аналогічний показник контрольної групи на 9,7% або на 1,7 л молока жирністю 3,4% щодоби. Отже, кормова добавка для дійних корів «Жиромол», яка містить комплекс необхідних вітамінів та мінеральних речовин значно перевищує за якісними показниками біологічну повноцінність післяспиртової барди, сприяє збільшенню відсотка жиру в молоці, що сприяє вищій ефективності виробництва молока.

Evaluation of the Mangrove Ecosystem in Saudi Arabia
Authors: Baltiur Mohamed , Tawfik Rady , Elsebaei Momtaz
Published: March 2023

The sustainability of the mangrove ecosystem in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is an urgent need to conserve these natural treasures and their benefits and services. Two species of mangroves grow in the Kingdom: Avicennia marina and Rhizophora mucronata. This study aimed to evaluate the mangrove ecosystem in the Kingdom through a set of descriptive frameworks, in addition to using quantitative methods to estimate willingness to pay (WTP) to maintain the mangrove ecosystem’s benefits. The results showed that WTP averaged about 150 riyals ($40) per person. The most significant variables affecting WTP were monthly income, educational level, information about mangroves, previous visits to mangrove areas, and membership in an environmental society. This is consistent with economic logic regarding the positive relationships between these variables and WTP as a dependent variable. The study also found that gender, age, marital status, family size, and the nature of work were nonsignificant determinants of WTP. The study recommended that attention be paid to the economic valuation of the Kingdom’s ecosystem services through further research and studies to bridge this knowledge gap, which contributes to the protection of these ecosystems and raising awareness of their benefits and services.

The Wording of the Quran and Its Impact on Meanings
Authors: Alarfaj Manal
Published: March 2023

This study aims to know the structures of the words of the Quran and their impact on meaning in an applied study on the structures of the linguistic root falsehood “A F K,” namely: ('IIFK, 'AFFAK, MUTAFIKA, TUFAK, YAFIK, YUFAK, 'UFIK, TAFIK). The study followed the inductive analytical approach and comprises an introduction, two sections and a conclusion. The first section is the structures of the root falsehood “A F K” in the Quran, and the second section addresses the meaning of the root in the context of the sentence. The most important result is that the root used to express the most severe types of lies, slander and malicious falsehoods, is “'IIFK.” Therefore, the use of the term is appropriate in the case of rejecting conclusive scientific evidence with flimsy arguments, and in accusing others of an unsubstantiated charge. This meaning can be applied to all the root forms. The study recommends the creation of such a work of a comprehensive encyclopaedia of Quran words because knowing the central significance helps to know the meanings of all sentences where the linguistic root is used, no matter how diverse its morphological structures are.
KEYWORDS
Central significance, linguistic differences, morphological forms, morphological formulas, morphological meanings, Quran words

Published: March 2023

In addition to the rapidly c hanging digital environment, the need for digital literacy is increasing for all members of society today due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Earlier, digital literacy consisted of a level of simple understanding and utilization of computer-based digital texts, but recently it has developed into the ability to diagnose and solve problems based on ethical awareness. In particular, COVID-19 is considered a major inflection point in digital literacy research in that it has resulted in the transfer of most of its activities from offline to online. Therefore, in this study, changes in domestic and international digital literacy research starting in 2020, when COVID-19 started and spread, and the implications thereof were analyzed. Network analysis was conducted by dividing 797 papers on the subject of domestic and international digital literacy into two periods based on their publication date, and quantitative changes in research, keyword frequency, keyword connection centrality, and cluster maps were identified. Research related to digital literacy has steadily increased in all periods in Korea and (except for the first period) abroad, but especially in Korea, which showed an increase of 180% in the second period. In addition, an examination of the keywords appearing in the study confirmed that the average number increased during the second period more than 2.5 times as much as during the first period in both domestic and international research, and the clusters also became more diversified. In addition, it was confirmed that “education” and direct and indirect keywords appeared as key research areas of digital literacy throughout the entire period, and from the first to the second period, digital literacy expanded from the ability to use simple digital tools to diagnosing and solving problems.

Authors:   Korean Association for Literacy, Kang Youngran
Published: March 2023

This study aimed to examine the effect of foreign graduate students’ digital literacy competency on their performance of academic presentation strategies in a digital literacy environment. For digital literacy, Shin So-young and Lee Seung-hee’s (2019) “basic work utilization ability” measurement tool was used, and academic presentation strategy was measured by the internal consistency between the questions by modifying or supplementing the types and questions of Lee Da-heom and Kim Jihyun (2022). First, the digital literacy capacity of foreign graduate students is less sufficient than that of Korean graduate students. Second, foreign graduate students lack the ability to perform presentations using academic presentation strategies than Korean graduate students. Specifically, it was confirmed that foreign graduate student lacked the ability to perform presentations using strategies in the stage of presentation progress compared to Korean graduate students. Third, as the digital literacy of foreign graduate students improves, the academic presentation strategy can also improve. This study is meaningful in that the results confirmed that digital literacy is a necessary competency for successful academic presentations by foreign graduate students.
A case study on the video production of a single senior media creator in an aging society: Focusing on Flusser’s Creative Imagist Theory
Authors:   Korean Association for Literacy, Jang You Jeong
Published: March 2023

Recently, the 50s and 60s, mainly baby boomers, are emerging in our society under the name of the “new middle-aged.” Those who say that now is their heyday are the ‘Opal Generation.’ Here, ‘OPAL’ stands for ‘Old People with Active Lives’ and at the same time means ‘Opal’ born in 1958, which represents baby boomers. In this study, we paid attention to the cultural characteristics of single-person media among seniors, based on the Kommunikologie of Czech media philosopher Villem Flusser as a theoretical premise for this study. Flusser argues that communication in the telematic era is a networked relationship in which individuals realize themselves through conversations with others. In addition, a new ‘freedom’ that individuals can enjoy in a telematic society is proposed as a concept opposite to ‘inevitability’, and the user is defined as an active subject through a creative imagination. In short, through qualitative in-depth interviews, the video production activities of single senior media creators in an aging society were analyzed through qualitative indepth interviews to see if the senior generation could recover true communication as creative imaginators through the process of producing and composing media contents.
Analysis of Writing in General-Purpose Korean Textbooks: Focusing on the Current Status of Writing Genre Education
Authors:   Korean Association for Literacy, LI YAN
Published: March 2023

This study selected three Korean textbooks for general-purpose learners to analyze the current status of writing genre education by analyzing the writing syllabus, genre knowledge, and genre type by proficiency in these Korean textbooks. The results are as follows. The current status of writing genre education in textbooks A, B, and C was very different, and the information on writing genre provided in these textbooks was inadequate. However, the genre types in Korean textbooks in current use were more diverse than reported by Lee Mi-hye (2013). Moreover, genre types such as Internet bulletin boards, blogs, and text messages that are widely used in contemporary everyday life have also been presented in textbooks. Nevertheless, it was confirmed that the genre types were not systematically implemented in Korean textbooks according to proficiency. As a future task, deep discussions of how to present writing syllabus and genre knowledge in textbooks and arrange writing genre types by proficiency should be made first so that genre-oriented writing education can be effectively implemented in Korean textbooks for general-purpose learners.
The Expressions of Political Power in Panoramic and Grand Space in Ancient Roman Empire before A.D. 476
Authors: Zheng Hong
Published: March 2023

This article argues the occupation, penetration and radiation of political power in the panoramic space by explaining the typical public architecture and public space in the former Roman Empire. As the most important public space, squares are the places where emperors show their powers. So the political elites try to occupy it. In Colosseum the emperors’ supreme power is thoroughly and incisively expressed by the carefully designed space settings. The public baths with compound decorations and functions are the visual panoramic scene. In this entertaining public space political power penetrates the individual life. The grandness of public architectures in roman city are the result of powers’ ostentation. With the imperial structure the styles and functions of public architectures in roman city radiates the whole empire. With these three relations between power and space this article draws two conclusions. First the ostentatious power based on the competitive power system is the connector between the republic and early empire. The great achievements in public architecture are the fruits of it. Second the super grand territory is the result of the links between military and politics. This links lead to the competitive power system. It also explains why the roman empire is invaded by the barbarians in the west but it continues in the east.

Published: March 2023

Video klip kelompok musik Exo berjudul ‘Mama’ memberikan beragam persepsi di kalangan masyarakat terutama pecinta musik pop Korea mengenai simbol-simbol yang ada di dalamnya. Simbol adalah bagian dari komunikasi yang menuntut masyarakat menggunakan persepsi untuk dapat memahami makna yang terkandung di dalamnya. Metode yang digunakan penelitian ini adalah kualitatif deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan informan memberikan persepsi bahwa simbol yang ada dalam video musik Exo berjudul ‘Mama’ hanyalah sebuah seni dan sebagai pendukung sebuah cerita dalam video klip musik tersebut. Selain itu persepsi yang dimunculkan bahwa simbol yang ada dalam video klip musik Exo tersebut memiliki keterkaitan dengan suatu kepercayaan tertentu dalam hal ini menyerupai lambang dan simbol Illuminati. Kesimpulan penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa perbedaan persepsi tidak terjadi begitu saja, tidak hanya karena reseptor indra terhadap suatu objek yang ada tetapi hal ini juga dipengaruhi oleh beberapa faktor, diantaranya faktor internal dan eksternal. Penelitian ini mencoba mengungkapkan penggunaan simbol-simbol yang identik dengan Illuminati dimana tidak banyak penelitian sejenis yang mengkaji hal tersebut. Disarankan bagi penelitian selanjutnya bisa mencermati penggunaan simbol dalam tayangan video klip music dan berupaya mengungkapkan makna yang ada didalamnya sehingga dapat membantu masyarakat memberikan pemaknaan yang tepat.

Çevrimiçi İnternet Sayfalarında Paylaşılan Tatil Deneyiminin Etkilerini Belirlemeye Yönelik Belek/Antalya Bölgesinde Nitel Bir Araştırma
Authors: TUZCU Nilgün
Published: March 2023

Amaç: Turizm sektörünün insan odaklı yapısı gereği turistlerin tatil deneyimleri doğrudan misafirin davranışlarına yansımaktadır. Bu noktada turistler gerek sosyal medyada gerekse doğrudan iletişim kurdukları kişilere deneyimlerini aktarmasından dolayı otel işletmeleri açısından önemli bir pazarlama aracı olarak kullanılabilmektedir. Bu yaklaşımın otel işletmeleri tarafından ne ölçüde kullanabildiğini belirlemeye yönelik yapılan bu araştırmada turistlerin tatil deneyiminin otellerin pazarlama yaklaşımlarına etkisini araştırmak amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla beraber turistlerin tatil deneyimlerini ne derece ve hangi sitelerde paylaştıklarını araştırmak bir başka amaç olarak olarak ele alınmıştır.
Yöntem: Araştırma amacına bağlı olarak olgubilim deseninde nitel bir araştırma gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın çalışma grubu Antalya Belek Turizm Bölgesinde faaliyet gösteren 5 yıldızlı bir otel işletmesinde konaklayan 41 misafirden oluşmaktadır. Veriler araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu aracılığı ile elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler içerik analizi yoluyla çözümlenmiştir.
Bulgular: Araştırmada; turistlerin internet sitesindeki otel yorumlarını okudukları ancak büyük bir kısmının yorum yazmaktan kaçındıkları bulgulanmıştır. Katılımcıların misafir ilişkileri personeli tarafından yorum ve puan sayfalarına yönlendirildikleri taktirde yorum yazdıkları belirtilmiştir. Katılımcıların daha çok Etstur, Tripadvisor, Otelpuan, Booking.com gibi siteleri takip ettikleri görülmüştür. Araştırmada tatil sırasında olumsuz bir tecrübe yaşadıklarında öncelikle yetkili kişilerle veya misafir ilişkileri departmanı ile görüşerek sorunu halletmeye çalıştıkları bulgulanmıştır.
Tartışma:
Araştırmada internet sitelerinde yazılan yorumların ne derece doğru olduğuna yönelik tartışma yapılmıştır. Katılımcıların yorumlarının internette yazılanlarla karşılaştırıldığına yönelik tartışma da yapılmıştır. Ayrıca katılımcıların site yorumlarına ve tatil deneyiminlerine ilişkin yaptıkları değerlendirmeler tartışılmıştır.
