Measuring Involvement for Organic Food Products: Testing and Identifying the Variables Affecting Consumer Involvement in Selected Urban Dwellings of Gujarat
Authors: Joshi Ashwini , Ranadive Amol
Published: September 2021

The main aim of this research was to first design, test and validate a structured tool to measure the construct of consumer involvement for organic food products. To do this, three most populated urban dwellings in the state of Gujarat, India were surveyed. A total sample of 200 respondents was deemed appropriate in terms of the validity of results as well as resources at hand. The three urban dwellings covered under this study were Ahmedabad, Surat and Vadodara. Out of the total sample size, 80 valid responses were collected from Ahmedabad, 70 from Surat and 50 from Vadodara. Initially, a structured tool was developed keeping in mind four basic dimensions which were, Information Search, Affection, Importance and Purchase. The tool had twenty statements asking for respondents’ opinion on a five-point Likert scale ranging from ‘Strongly Agree’ to ‘Strongly Disagree’. Apart from this the questionnaire collected demographic data of the respondents. After collecting data, using factor analysis, four antecedents of involvement were validated since the Eigenvalues for each of them were above 1. Overall, these four antecedents or factors explained 65.71% of the total variance. After statistically validating the tool, consumer involvement was measured and results showed moderately higher involvement. Further analysis was carried out to understand the inter-relationship between the antecedents inter-alia and consumer involvement. Correlation analysis confirmed strong positive correlation between all the antecedents as well as between consumer involvement and its antecedents which further confirmed the validity of this tool. Since correlation was found to be highly positive and significant, it was considered appropriate to establish and test this construct using regression analysis. Regression analysis revealed that all the antecedents had more or less similar impact on consumer involvement for organic food products.
Development and evaluation of an active precoated microfiltration system
Authors:   , Persadh Pravesh Bekraj
Published: September 2021

Whilst microfiltration (MF) has numerous uses and advantages over conventional separation processes it does have certain limitations. MF membrane process can effectively remove turbidity but cannot sufficiently remove low molecular organics. For a sufficient removal of such particles adaptations and modifications to the membrane has to be made or additional removal processes (e.g. nanofiltration or reverse osmosis) has to be added. This project makes an attempt at addressing the former issue. In MF, a membrane on a support performs the filtration. There are various types of materials used as supports e.g. ceramics, porous steel tubes, polymers etc. These materials are usually rigid or semi-rigid and thus offer the advantage of maintaining their shape thus enabling operation at high pressures. This project will concentrate exclusively on woven fibre microfiltration (WFMF). This is a tubular cloth-like filter, which becomes rigid when feed flows into it.

Published: September 2021

Increased global competition is challenging manufacturing industries to bring competitively priced, well-designed and well-manufactured products into the marketplace as quickly as possible. Manufacturing companies are responding to these challenges in their industry by extending current internet trends to create virtual marketplaces where factories, suppliers, and customers are part of the solution. Pressing demands to reduce lead-time by providing a suitable manufacturing price for a product has become an important step in the current competition age. This thesis presents an approach for providing a quotation for a product via the web, automatically and autonomously.

Defining legitimate taste in Finland: Does mother tongue matter?
Authors: Heikkilä Riie , Kahma Nina
Published: September 2021

Finns are said to be homogenous when it comes to cultural taste. However, the division between the Finnish-speaking majority and the Swedish-speaking minority is often considered significant. Previous study shows that the Swedish-speakers are statistically better-off when it comes to issues such as income and health. The stereotype of the Swedish-speakers is that in cultural consumption they represent upper-class taste. Most contemporary theory claims that the notion of legitimacy itself is changing. The paper examines ideas of legitimate taste brought up in twenty focus groups. We shall compare the linguistic groups and form a picture of what type of culture is considered legitimate by which group. In the end we aim to answer the question of what legitimate taste in the Finnish context means. The paper is based on a focus group study that serves as a pilot research for the project Cultural Capital and Social Differentiation in Contemporary Finland.
Tourism consumption revisited - An empirical study of Finnish consumers
Authors: Antti Honkanen , Mustonen Pekka
Published: September 2021

According to postmodern theories, social divisions are based on identity and lifestyle rather than on sociodemographic background. In this paper, the effects of these both were examined. Tourism consumption was divided into two dimensions, tourism consumption and desire to travel more. Empirical analysis were based on two nation-wide surveys, Finland 1999 and Finland 2004. Sociodemographic factors were assumed to influence more on tourism consumption than on desire to travel more. The results were somewhat parallel with the hypothesis. However, both demographics and lifestyle determinants should be taken into account. The effects have remained quite stable regardless of the finding that desire to travel more has decreased while tourism consumption has increased.
Explaining temporal trends and regional variation in attitudes towards foreign workers: group conflict theory and Finland 1990–2013
Authors: Kilpi-Jakonen Elina
Published: September 2021

This article explores a dynamic version of group conflict theory as an explanation for developments over time as well as regional differences in attitudes towards foreign workers in Finland in the period 1990–2013. In particular, it is argued that recent changes in potential for conflict are more likely to affect attitudes than are their levels. The results confirm this as it is both change in the rate of growth of the foreign population and possibly change in unemployment that tend to have an effect on attitudes, whereas the size of the foreign population and the level of unemployment do not. These change measures tend to have an effect at the national rather than the regional level. On the other hand, regional differences are not explained by any of the contextual variables tested. The data used at the individual level is a pooled data set (N=28,135) of 13 EVA Surveys on Finnish Values and Attitudes.

Abstract. The Tibetan Plateau is generally considered to be a significantly clean area owing to its high altitude; however, the transport of atmospheric pollutants from the Indian subcontinent to the Tibetan Plateau has infected the Tibetan environments. Nyingchi is located at the end of an important water vapor channel. In this study, continuous monitoring of gaseous elemental mercury (GEM), gaseous oxidized mercury (GOM), and particle-bound mercury (PBM) was conducted in Nyingchi from March 30 to September 3, 2019, to study the influence of the Indian summer monsoon (ISM) on the origin, transport and behavior of mercury. The atmospheric Hg concentrations during the preceding Indian summer monsoon (PISM) period (1.20 ± 0.35 ng m−3, 13.5 ± 7.3 pg m−3, and 11.4 ± 4.8 pg m−3 for GEM, GOM, and PBM, respectively) were relatively higher than those during the ISM period (0.95 ± 0.21 ng m−3, 12.7 ± 14.3 pg m−3 and 8.8 ± 6.0 pg m−3). The average annual total gaseous mercury concentration in the Nyingchi region was obtained using a passive sampler as 1.12 ± 0.28 ng m−3. The GEM concentration showed that the sampling area was very clean. The GEM has several patterns of daily variation during different periods. Stable high GEM concentrations occur at night during PISM, which may be related to the nocturnal boundary layer. High values occurring in the late afternoon during the ISM may be related to long-range transport. The results of the trajectory model demonstrate that the sources of pollutants at Nyingchi are different under the control of different airflow fields. During westerly circulation, pollutants mainly originate from northeast India or Nepal. During the ISM period, the pollutants mainly originate from northeast India, or the Bay of Bengal, and the Indian Ocean. The strong precipitation and vegetation effects on Hg during the ISM resulted in low Hg concentrations transmitted to Nyingchi during this period. Further, principal component analysis showed that long-distance transport, local emissions, meteorological factors, and snowmelt factors are the main factors affecting the local Hg concentration in Nyingchi.

Published: September 2021

Abstract. Precipitation over the mid-latitudes originates mostly from the ice phase within mixed-phase clouds, signifying the importance of initial ice crystal formation. Primary ice crystals are formed on ice nucleating particles (INPs), which are sparsely populated in the troposphere. INPs are emitted by a large number of ground-based sources into the atmosphere, from where they can get lifted up to cloud heights. Therefore, it is vital to understand vertical INP transport mechanisms, which are particularly complex over orographic terrain. We investigate the vertical transport and mixing mechanisms of INPs over orographic terrain during cloudy conditions by simultaneous measurements of in situ INP concentration at a high valley and a mountaintop site in the Swiss Alps in late winter 2019. On the mountaintop, the INP concentrations were on average lower than in the high valley. However, a diurnal cycle in INP concentrations was observed at the mountaintop, which was absent in the high valley. The median mountaintop INP concentration equilibrated to the concentration found in the high valley towards the night. We found that in nearly 70 % of the observed cases INP-rich air masses were orographically lifted from low elevation upstream of the measurement site. In addition, we present evidence that over the course of the day air masses containing high INP concentrations were advected from the Swiss plateau towards the measurement sites, contributing to the diurnal cycle of INPs. Our results the local INP concentration enhancement over the Alps during cloud events.
Seasonal Analysis of Reduced and Oxidized Nitrogen-Containing Organic Compounds at a Coastal Site
Authors: Ditto Jenna C. , Machesky Jo , Gentner Drew R.
Published: September 2021

Abstract. Nitrogen-containing organic compounds, which may be directly emitted to the atmosphere or may form via reactions with prevalent reactive nitrogen species (e.g. NH3, NOx, NO3), have important but uncertain effects on climate and human health. Using gas and liquid chromatography with soft ionization and high-resolution mass spectrometry, we performed a molecular-level speciation of functionalized organic compounds at a coastal site on the Long Island Sound in summer (during the LISTOS 2018 campaign) and winter. This region often experiences poor air quality due to the emissions of reactive anthropogenic, biogenic, and marine-derived compounds and their chemical transformation products. Indeed, we observed a range of functionalized compounds containing oxygen, nitrogen, and/or sulfur atoms resulting from a mix of direct emissions and chemical transformations, including photochemical processing in summer and aqueous-phase processing in winter. In both summer and winter, nitrogen-containing organic aerosols dominated the observed distribution of functionalized particle-phase species ionized by our analytical techniques, with 85 % and 68 % of measured compound abundance containing a nitrogen atom, respectively. Nitrogen-containing particles included reduced nitrogen functional groups (e.g. amines, imines, azoles) and common NOz contributors (e.g. organonitrates). The prevalence of reduced nitrogen functional groups observed in the particle-phase, while frequently paired with oxygen-containing groups elsewhere on the molecule, often rivaled that of oxidized nitrogen groups detected by our methods. Supplemental gas-phase measurements, collected on adsorptive samplers and analyzed with a novel liquid chromatography-based method, suggest that gas-phase reduced nitrogen compounds are possible contributing precursors to the observed nitrogen-containing particles. Altogether, this work highlights the prevalence of reduced nitrogen-containing compounds in the less-studied Northeastern U.S., and potentially in other regions with similar anthropogenic, biogenic, and marine source signatures.

Abstract. Solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) is emitted during photosynthesis in plant leaves. It constitutes a small additional offset to reflected radiance and can be observed by sensitive instruments. The Chinese global carbon dioxide monitoring satellite (TanSat), as its mission, acquires greenhouse gas column density. The advanced technical characteristics of the hyper-spectrum grating spectrometer (ACGS) onboard TanSat enable SIF retrieval from space observations in the O2-A band. In this study, one-year SIF data was processed from Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) and TanSat using a physical-based algorithm. A comparison between the SIF retrieved from OCO-2 and its official product shows their strong linear relationship (R2 > 0.85) and suggests the reliability of the algorithm. The global distribution showed that the SIF retrieved from the two satellites shared the same spatial pattern for all seasons with the grided SIF difference less than 0.3 W m−2 μm−1 sr−1, and they also agreed with the official OCO-2 SIF product. The retrieval uncertainty of seasonal-grided TanSat SIF is less than 0.03 W m−2 μm−1 sr−1 whereas the uncertainty of each sounding ranges from 0.1 to 0.6 W m−2 μm−1 sr−1. The relationship between SIF and terrestrial gross primary productivity was also estimated for data quality testing. The spatiotemporal consistency between TanSat and OCO-2 and their comparable data quality make the comprehensive usage of the two mission products possible. Data supplemented by TanSat observations are expected to contribute to the development of global SIF maps with more spatiotemporal detail, which will advance global research on vegetation photosynthesis.
Islet: Interpolation semi-Lagrangian element-based transport
Authors: Bradley Andrew M. , Bosler Peter A. , Guba Oksana
Published: September 2021

Abstract. Advection of trace species (tracers), also called tracer transport, in models of the atmosphere and other physical domains is an important and potentially computationally expensive part of a model's dynamical core (dycore). Semi-Lagrangian (SL) advection methods are efficient because they permit a time step much larger than the advective stability limit for explicit Eulerian methods. Thus, to reduce the computational expense of tracer transport, dycores often use SL methods to advect passive tracers. The class of interpolation semi-Lagrangian (ISL) methods contains potentially extremely efficient SL methods. We describe a set of ISL bases for element-based transport, such as for use with atmosphere models discretized using the spectral element (SE) method. An ISL method that uses the natural polynomial interpolant on Gauss-Legendre-Lobatto (GLL) SE nodes of degree at least three is unstable on the test problem of periodic translational flow on a uniform element grid. We derive new alternative bases of up to order of accuracy nine that are stable on this test problem; we call these the Islet bases. Then we describe an atmosphere tracer transport method, the Islet method, that uses three grids that share an element grid: a dynamics grid supporting, for example, the GLL basis of degree three; a physics grid with a configurable number of finite-volume subcells per element; and a tracer grid supporting use of our Islet bases, with particular basis again configurable. This method provides extremely accurate tracer transport and excellent diagnostic values in a number of validation problems. We conclude with performance results that use up to 27,600 NVIDIA V100 GPUs on the Summit supercomputer.
Application of lithogeochemical and pyrite trace element data for the determination of vectors to ore in the Raja Au-Co prospect, northern Finland
Authors: Raič Sara , Molnár Ferenc , Cook Nick , O`Brien Hugh , Lahaye Yann
Published: September 2021

Abstract. Discovering ore deposits is becoming increasingly difficult, and this is particularly true in areas of glaciated terrains. As a new exploration tool for such terrains, we test the vectoring capacities of trace element and sulfur isotope characteristics of pyrite, combined with quantitative tools for whole-rock geochemical datasets. Our target is the Rajapalot gold-cobalt project in northern Finland, where metamorphosed Paleoproterozoic volcanic and-sedimentary rocks of the Peräpohja belt host recently discovered gold prospects, which also have significant cobalt enrichment. The focus is particularly put on a single gold-cobalt prospect, known as Raja, an excellent example of this unusual cobalt-enriched gold deposit, common in the metamorphosed terranes of northern Finland. The major lithologies at Rajapalot comprise variously altered and deformed calcsilicate rocks that alternate with albitized metasedimentary units, mafic volcanic rocks, mica schist and quartzite. Mineralization at Rajapalot prospects is characterized by an older Co-mineralizing event and a younger high-grade Au-mineralization with re-mobilization and re-deposition of Co. Detailed in situ laser ablation inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) is a powerful technique that produces the robust trace element and sulfur isotope databases from paragenetically and texturally well-characterized pyrite from the Raja prospect. The results are treated with appropriate log-ratio transformations and used for multivariate statistical data analysis, such as the computation of principal components. Application of these methods revealed that elements such as Co, Ni, Cu, Au, As, Ag, Mo, Bi, Te, Se, Sn, U, Tl and W have high vectoring capacities to discriminate between Co-only and Au-Co zones, as well as between mineralization stages. The systematic pyrite study suggests that homogenous sulfur isotopic characteristics (1.3 ‰ to +5.9 ‰.) and positive loadings of Co, Se, As, Te, Bi and Au onto PC1 are reflective of an early stage of Co-mineralization, while the opposing negative loadings of Mo, Ni, W, Tl, Cu and Ag along PC1 are associated with the Au-mineralizing event. The sulfur isotopic signature of the latter pyrite type is between −1.2 ‰ and +7.4 ‰. Subtle patterns recognized from the whole-rock geochemistry favor an As-Au-Se-Te-W-U signature along the positive axis of PC1 for the localization of high-grade Au-Co-zones, whereas the element group Ni, Cu, Co, Te, Se and As, which has negative loadings onto PC2, will predict Co-only zones. This study shows the efficiency of trace element geochemistry in mineral exploration targeting, which has the capacity to define future targets by  characterizing the metallogenic potential of a host rock, as well as distinguishing various stages of mineralization.
Mapping seasonal glacier melt across the Hindu Kush Himalaya with time series synthetic aperture radar (SAR)
Authors: Scher Corey , Steiner Nicholas C. , McDonald Kyle C.
Published: September 2021

Abstract. Current observational data on Hindu Kush Himalayas (HKH) glaciers
are sparse, and characterizations of seasonal melt dynamics are limited.
Time series synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery enables detection of
reach-scale glacier melt characteristics across continents. We analyze
C-band Sentinel-1 A/B SAR time series data, comprised of 32 741 Sentinel-1
A/B SAR images, and determine the duration of seasonal glacier melting for
105 432 mapped glaciers (83 102 km2 glacierized area, defined using
optical observations) in the HKH across the calendar years 2017–2019. Melt
onset and duration are recorded at 90 m spatial resolution and 12 d
temporal repeat. All glacier areas within the HKH exhibit some degree of
melt. Melt signals persist for over two-thirds of the year at elevations below
4000 m a.s.l. and for nearly half of the calendar year at elevations
exceeding 7000 m a.s.l. Retrievals of seasonal melting span all elevation
ranges of glacierized area in the HKH region, extending greater than 1 km
above the maximum elevation of an interpolated 0 ∘C summer
isotherm and at the top of Mount Everest, where in situ data and surface energy
balance models indicate that the Khumbu Glacier is melting at surface air
temperatures below −10 ∘C. Sentinel-1 melt retrievals
reflect broad-scale trends in glacier mass balance across the region, where
the duration of melt retrieved in the Karakoram is on
average 16 d less than in the eastern Himalaya sub-region. Furthermore,
percolation zones are apparent from meltwater retention indicated by delayed
refreeze. Time series SAR datasets are suitable to support operational
monitoring of glacier surface melt and the development and assessment of
surface energy balance models of melt-driven ablation across the global
cryosphere.
The Typographic Imagination: Reading and Writing in Japan’s Age of Modern Print Media
Authors: Abel Jonathan E.
Published: September 2021

A tension runs through Nathan Shockey’s well-researched book of essays on the topic of the medial transition to print culture; it is this: does the value of print material lie within its semantic content or within its market value? Although at several points the book refers to this as a dialectic as though each side of the tension were in equal balance, ultimately Shockey is more concerned with the latter notion of books and print as media objects in the world rather than as conveyors of meaning. This is evidenced by the preponderance of instances in which he highlights that reading does not matter and where writing (in the sense of the noun not the gerund) does or simply is matter.
The influence of varietal characteristics on the quality indicators of candied fruits from plum fruits
Authors: Prichko Tatiana , Droficheva Natalya
Published: September 2021

The influence of varietal characteristics of plum fruits on the physicochemical parameters of the drying process has been investigated. Revealed significant differences in the content of biologically active compounds on the example of varieties: Stanley, Big Stanley, Grossa di Felisio, President, Blue moon, August Delish, Kabardinskaya early. The consumption rates of raw materials for the production of candied fruits have been determined. The results of laboratory studies on the variation of the content of vitamins (C, P), anthocyanins in plum fruits, taking into account varietal characteristics, are presented. The drying process on a dryer with infrared rays led to a slight decrease in polyphenolic and mineral substances, and higher losses of vitamins in the finished candied fruit. The mathematical processing of the experimental data was carried out by the method of analysis of variance and descriptive statistics using the Microsoft Excel software package. In the production of candied plum fruits, optimal technological modes have been selected that contribute to a high yield of high-quality finished products, taking into account the varietal characteristics of the feedstock. According to biochemical and organoleptic indicators of the quality of candied fruits, Stanley and President varieties were distinguished, the energy value of which is 147.0 kcal with an organoleptic assessment of 4.9 points. The results of experimental biochemical and technological analyzes of fruits at individual technological stages of production made it possible to assess the intensity of complex processes that cause a qualitative transformation of raw materials.

In the world, the demand for quality and safe grain products is increasing. The need to preserve wheat in the event of a natural disaster requires the study of optimal storage times of grain without degrading technological indexes. The purpose of the work was to study the dynamics of technological properties of winter wheat grown after peas, clover, corn for silage and the industrial, ecological, biological growing systems during 1, 3, and 5 years of storage in the conditions of the ordinary granary. The absence of significant differences in the technological parameters of the grain of wheat grown at industrial and ecological systems, but significantly lower indicators at a biological growing system was found. The highest hectolitre weight obtained when wheat grain was grown after corn for silage, and vitreousness – after the clover. Significantly higher biochemical parameters of grain and alveographic properties of flour were for the cultivation of wheat after peas, which provided additional accumulation of protein substances. There are no significant changes in the indicator of hectolitre weight during the grain storage. Other indicators increased significantly after 1 year of storage (on average by 10 – 30%). For further storage, vitreousness growth was insignificant. After 5 years of storage, the falling number significantly increased (on 21% compared to the initial values and on 7% – after 3 years of storage). The content of protein, gluten in the grain, and alveographic properties of flour significantly decreased after 5 years of storage. The possibility of obtaining grain of wheat with high technological parameters for a more safe ecological growing system was established. It was also confirmed to need for grain storage up to 1 year to improve quality indicators and it was established that it safely stored for 3 years.

The topic provides an analysis of the current approach to healthy nutrition and represents a new functional fermented milk drink based on buttermilk containing natural prebiotics - a biologically valuable complex Spirulina platensis. The main tasks of the industry as a holistic system for the management and production of food ingredients and products are outlined. The work highlights the requirements for the quality and context of the functional product manufacture, the main criteria for the consumer choice, and positioning of products in the healthy lifestyle system. The topic covers the most common pro- and prebiotics, including strains. The unique food green microalgae Spirulina platensis as a source of biologically valuable components is proposed for industrial application. A technique for the production of the fermented milk drink based on buttermilk and spirulina as prebiotic was developed and scientifically substantiated. The protein contained in buttermilk is characterized by high nutritional value, exhibits functional properties and can significantly affect the quality of the drink. To confirm this, the possibility of using buttermilk with different protein content from 2.9 to 3.2 to improve the structure of the clot in the composition of the drink and the content of spirulina from 10 to 20% was studied.  As single criteria for optimizing the prescription composition of the drink at the different protein content of buttermilk used indicators of product quality - acidity, degree of syneresis, organoleptic parameters. The optimal values of the individual criteria are obtained in different ranges of protein content 3 times 1-2-2; sample 2-3.0; sample 3-3.2%, which allows you to get recommendations for the formulation of a new type of drink.

Objective: Various studies have reported that the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio in the serum (sNLR) may serve as a cost-effective and useful prognostic factor in patients with various cancer types. We investigated the clinical impact of NLR as a prognostic factor in malign pleural effusion (MPE) and sNLR on prognosis in MPE. Method: We retrospectively reviewed all of the patients who were diagnosed MPE. The relationship between sNLR and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio in the malign pleural effusion (mNLR) value, age, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG), histopathologic type, serum albumin and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) with survival were investigated. Results: A total of 222 patients with a mean age of 65.7±11.5 were included in the study. Patients with a mNLR value ≥0.42 and a serum NLR value ≥4.75 had a shorter survival (p: 0.000). Multivariate analysis, which showed that survival was significantly related mNLR value > 0.42 and/or sNLR value > 4.75 (Odds Ratio (OR): 2.66, %95 CI, 1,65-4,3 p: 0.001), serum LDH > 210 (OR = 1.8, %95 CI, 1,33-2,46 p: 0.001) and age > 65 (OR = 1.9, %95 CI, 1,41-2,55 p = 0.001). Conclusion: sNLR and mNLR may act as a simple, useful, and cost-effective prognostic factor in patients with MPE. Furthermore, these results may serve as the cornerstone of further research into the mNLR in the future. Although further studies are required to generalize our results, this information will benefit clinicians and patients in determining the most appropriate therapy for patients with MPE.

1,3-butadiene (1,3-BD) is a building block produced mainly as a byproduct of the ethylene steam cracking process. However, due to the growing interest in sustainable technologies, there is also growing interest in manufacturing 1,3-BD from ethanol. For this reason, taking into account that the ethanol-derived 1,3-BD can contain oxygenated contaminants that are difficult to remove, the present manuscript investigates for the first time how the presence of low concentrations of some oxygenates (acetaldehyde, crotonaldehyde, 3-hydroxybutyraldehyde, acetone, water, ethanol, 1,3-butanodiol, 3-buten2-ol, crotyl alcohol, and 1-butanol) in the 1,3-BD monomer can affect polymerization reactions performed with the neodymium versatate catalyst and modify the characteristics of the obtained polybutadiene products. It is shown that the presence of oxygenated compounds can cause inhibitory effects on the course of the polymerization and modify the molar mass distributions and flow properties of the final products, although all analyzed samples presented the characteristic high-cis character of polybutadienes produced with the neodymium versatate catalyst.

Araştırmanın amacı öğretmen adaylarının öğrenme ve ders çalışma stratejilerinin; öğrenme stillerine, fakülteye, bölüme ve cinsiyete göre değişme durumunu ortaya koymaktır. Araştırma nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden tarama modeli kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu bir devlet üniversitesinin iki farklı fakültesinde ikinci sınıfta öğrenim görmekte olan 389 öğretmen adayı oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada veriler “Öğrenme ve Ders Çalışma Stratejileri Envanteri” ile “Öğrenme Stili Envanteri” kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Araştırmadan elde edilen verilerin analizinde betimsel istatistik, tek yönlü varyans analizi ve bağımsız gruplar t testi kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda; ders çalışma ve öğrenme stratejilerinin alt boyutu olan tutum ile ayrıştıran öğrenme stilli arasında anlamlı ilişki görülmüştür. Öğrenme ve ders çalışma stratejilerinin alt boyutları ile öğretmen adaylarının fakülteleri, bölümleri ve cinsiyetleri arasında da anlamlı ilişki görülmüş ve bulgular yorumlanmıştır. Bulguların üniversitelerdeki öğrenme öğretme merkezlerine, fakülte kurullarına, öğretim üyelerine öğretim süreçlerini planlamada yardımcı olacağı düşünülmektedir.

Amaç- Samsun ilinde bulunan bir devlet hastanesinin ortopedi bölümünün tedavi sürecinde kullandığı medikal malzemelerin talebinin nicel tahmin yöntemleri ile analiz edilmesi ve en uygun tahmin yönteminin belirlenmesidir.

Yöntem- Araştırmada talep tahmini yöntemlerinden 3 Aylık Hareketli Ortalama Yöntemi, 5 Aylık Hareketli Ortalama Yöntemi, Tek Üstel Düzeltme Yöntemi, Holt’un Doğrusal Yöntemi, Çarpımsal Holt-Winters Yöntemi, Toplamsal Holt-Winters Yöntemi ve Basit Doğrusal Regresyon Yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Yöntemlerin karşılaştırılması ve en doğru tahmin yönteminin belirlenmesi maksadıyla Ortalama Mutlak Hata (OMH), Ortalama Mutlak Yüzde Hata (OMHY) ve Hata Kareleri Ortalaması (HKO) gibi hata ölçütleri dikkate alınmıştır.

Bulgular- Uygulama sonucunda her bir malzeme için en ideal talep tahmini yöntemi farklı olmakla birlikte genel olarak Basit Doğrusal Regresyon Yöntemi ve Toplamsal Holt-Winters Yöntemlerinin (0,2-0,2-0,2) en uygun talep tahmini yöntemleri olduğu belirlenmiştir.

Sonuç- Bu çalışma sonucunda, hastanenin satın alma departmanının tıbbi malzeme planlamalarını daha etkin yapabilmesi için uygun bir yöntem önerilmiştir. Böylece hastanede stok maliyetlerinin azaltılması ve israfların önlenmesi mümkün olabilecektir.
GÜRPINAR’IN, ROMAN ÜZERİNE DÜŞÜNEN TİYATROSU İSTİĞRAK-I SEHERÎ’DE GERÇEKÇİLİK ARAYIŞI VE KARİKATÜRİZASYONU
Authors: YILMAZTÜRK DAĞASLANI Nur
Published: September 2021

Hüseyin Rahmi Gürpınar, roman türünde olduğu gibi eleştiriler türünde de üretken bir yazardır. Çeşitli dergi ve gazetelere yazdığı yazılar, dilinin kıvraklığı ve akıcılığı sebebiyle oldukça ilgi çekicidir. Bunlardan biri de Menemenlizade Tahir’in Sergüzeşt romanının tefrika edilen bir bölümü için yazdığı İstiğrak-ı Seherî adlı eleştiri yazısıdır. Bu makalenin amacı, Gürpınar’ın İstiğrak-ı Seherî yazısı içerisindeki baskın unsurların değerlendirilmesi aracılığıyla, onun romantizme karşı realizmi savunmasındaki temel kıstasları tespit etmektir. Bu kıstasların tespiti için, Gürpınar’ın değerlendirmesinde izini sürebileceğimiz unsurlar olan gerçekçilik, orijinallik arayışı, tefrika roman, anlatıcı-yazar ayrımı, karikatürize etme ve karnaval atmosferi ele alınmıştır. Tüm bu unsurları incelemeye çalıştığımız yazımızın iddiası ise onun orijinallik arayışını ve eleştirdiği konular için asıl yıkıcı etkiyi oluşturan karikatürize etmesini gölgeleyen unsurun, gerçekliğe saplantılı diyebileceğimiz şekilde bağlı kalmak olduğudur.
