Authors: Kápolnainé Nagy-Göde Fruzsina , Horváth-Kálmán Eszter , Török Ákos
Published: October 2023

A meredek és instabil lejtők komoly műszaki problémákat okoznak, felszínmozgások miatt veszélyeztetnek településeket és infrastrukturális létesítményeket. A tanulmány egy kritikus régióban, a Balaton-part közelében elhelyezkedő magaspartok stabilitásának vizsgálatát foglalja össze. A bemutatott lejtő stabilitáselemzését különböző szoftverekkel – Plaxis, Geo5 és Slide2 – végeztük el, és összehasonlítottuk a kapott eredményeket állékonyság szempontjából. A modellezésből kiderült, hogy a magaspartok stabilitása nem éri el a szükséges biztonságot. Két fő azonosított tönkremeneteli módot lehetett elkülöníteni, melyek közül az egyik a talpponti, kissé alámetsző, összetettebb geometriával jellemezhető körcsúszólap, míg a másik a lejtő tetején az eróziós folyamatok miatt bekövetkező kisebb mozgás, lokális tönkremenetel. A számítások eredményeképpen a biztonság növelhető, megfelelően kialakított monitoring rendszerek segítségével.

Published: October 2023

The Electronic Throttle Valve (ETV) is the core part of automotive engines which are recently used in control-by-wire cars. The estimation of its states and uncertainty is instructive for control applications. This study presents the design of Extended State Observer (ESO) for estimating the states and uncertainties of Electronic Throttle Valve (ETV). Two versions of ESOs have been proposed for estimation: Linear ESO (LESO) and Nonlinear ESO (NESO). The model of ETV is firstly developed and extended in state variable form such that the extended state stands for the uncertainty in system parameters. The design of both structures of ESOs are developed and a comparison study has been conducted to show the effectiveness of the proposed observers. Numerical simulation has been conducted to assess the performance of observers in estimating the states and uncertainties of ETV. The simulated results showed that both full order and reduced order models of ETV have the same transient characteristics. Moreover, the effectiveness of two versions of observers has been examined based on Root Mean Square of Error (RMSE) indicator. The results showed that the NESO has less estimation errors for both states and uncertainties than LESO.

Published: October 2023

Film stands out as a compelling contemporary mass medium that has witnessed substantial growth. This progress has given rise to numerous film genres, intended to captivate audiences across generations, including the realm of animated cinema. Often, films convey messages depicting the dichotomy between good and bad characters in everyday life, typically portraying the vulnerable and kind-hearted individuals facing oppression from self-centered antagonists. However, in fictional works like "Incredibles 2," superheroes emerge as guardians, shielding society from menacing forces. This research aimed to provide a comprehensive elucidation of the interpretive process through the utilization of the triadic model. Furthermore, it endeavors to discern the facets of morality manifested through both linguistic and visual symbols within the semiotic framework of the movie "Incredibles 2." This was about semiotics which refers to Charles Sanders Peirce’s theory. This study used qualitative method as research design. Data in the study were signs appeared in the film. The findings section showed six kinds of sign that the writer founded in the Incredibles 2 film which are sinsign, qualisign, legisign, icon, indexes, and symbol that exists moralities signs. The findings on sign can divided into two parts, Language and Visual sign. Language sign can be utteranced by the speaker on the film from Mr. Incredible and a little boy. Visual sign could be shown by icon and symbol on the things in every capture. Keywords: semiotic, Pierce, moralities, Incridibles 2

Published: October 2023

Egri's three-dimensional theory (1923) was employed to examine the multifaceted aspects of Catherine Danielle Clark, the main character in Delia Owens' novel "Where the Crawdads Sing." This qualitative study utilized a narrative approach to gather and analyze data through inductive and deductive techniques. The findings revealed several three-dimensional aspects of Catherine Danielle Clark. Physically, she possessed beauty, long black hair, and a well-proportioned body with a deep-tanned complexion, which improved as she matured. Socially, she hailed from a lower-class American family, held various jobs as a seafood seller, book writer, and poet, and experienced discrimination and singledom. Her hobbies included reading books and collecting organisms from the marsh. Psychologically, she exhibited introversion, insecurity, sensitivity, irritability, selfishness, anxiety, and a reluctance to forgive. However, she also displayed independence, optimism, and a determined fighting spirit for survival, showcasing remarkable talent in painting and writing. Overall, the study found that the psychological dimension was more pronounced than the physiological and social dimensions. Keywords: main character, physiological dimension, psychological dimension, sociological dimension, three-dimensional aspects

Published: October 2023

The ambition of the article is to enrich and, in parallel, to transmit and disseminate knowledge on the essence of hermeneutic competence as specific abilities and skills to understand, interpret, read and shape oneself and the world as meaningful, con-stituted by the senses of the whole. Looking at hermeneutic competence from the point of view of conditions in the family, especially along the line and in the system of parents-in-law, sons-in-law and sons-in-law, seems to be a justified, inspiring and worthy of attention task, precisely because of the new, more complete than hitherto results of cognition. The text, therefore, raises and interlinks issues concerning her-meneutical competence, the condition of the modern family, values and relations in the family in order to answer the title problem.
Exotica and the Ethiopian of Acts 8:26–40: Toward a Different Fabula
Authors: Aymer Margaret
Published: October 2023

Scholarship on the Ethiopian eunuch focuses heavily on his foreign otherness, identifying him as the first gentile convert in the Acts of the Apostles. Such a reading tends not only to exoticize the Ethiopian but also to vilify the temple and, by extension, first-century Judaism, for their imagined rejection of this man. Using Saidiya Hartman’s work on “critical fabulation,” I propose instead that the Ethiopian be read as a Jew and, moreover, as an embodiment of the Jewish experiences of exile and enslavement to which his castrated body points. Such a reading supports the theme of the ingathering of dispersed Jews within the nascent Christian movement, which is central to Acts 1–8.
ENHANCING HYBRID MOTOR THRUST BY A HELICAL-PORT FUEL GRAIN
Authors: Dinisman Sagi , Eisen Nachum E. , Gany Alon
Published: October 2023

Hybrid rockets can be good propulsion alternatives to solid and liquid rockets due to their combined safety, controllability, and high energetic performance attributes. However, their characteristic low fuel regression rates, implying low thrust, may be a significant drawback in the application of hybrid rocket systems. In this research study, we experimentally investigated employing a fuel grain with a helical-shape port as a method to increase motor thrust. A series of static firing tests using gaseous oxygen as the oxidizer and polyester fuel grain with a helical port showed an increase up to 2.5-fold in the regression
rate compared to a regular straight cylindrical port. Moreover, the addition of 5% expandable graphite
(EG) to the fuel revealed a threefold increase in the regression rate. By relating the fuel consumption
solely to the gain size (length), an even further increase in the apparent regression rate was observed-up
to fourfold for plain polyester and sixfold for polyester with the 5% EG additive. The enhancement in the
regression rate along with the longer internal flow path implies a substantially higher fuel mass flow rate
from a given fuel grain, enabling a remarkable increase in the motor thrust or noticeable shortening of the fuel grain and motor, which results in a lighter and smaller rocket motor with improved performance.
Developing Global Interdependencies: Consulting Firms and Nordic Aid in Postcolonial Tanzania's Rural Economic Development
Authors: Lamberg Essi
Published: October 2023

The globalization of developmentalist architecture has become a major topic in architectural history, but less is known about the funding mechanisms and national development policies that supported consulting firms as they competed for contracts in the global South. This article examines the application of the integrated rural development (IRD) approach in postcolonial Tanzania, taking as its point of departure two IRD-based regional economic plans developed for the regions of Mtwara and Lindi that were financed by the Finnish development organization Finnida and prepared by two Finnish consulting firms, Finnplanco and Finconsult. While the Nordic countries actively promoted developmentalist intervention in the late 20th century, the role they played in this context has been overlooked. Attempts to implement these rural economic development plans are relevant to architectural history, even if the implementation failed, because they shed light on the modernization projects promoted by ‘global experts’ worldwide, drawing attention to the long-term dialogue between developmentalist forces and architectural state-making in the global South.
Computational study on the antioxidant activity of five plant food benzoic acid derivatives: dearomatization and stability of H abstraction radicals
Authors: Isamura B
Published: October 2023

In this study, we report a computational investigation of the antioxidant activity of five plant food benzoic acid derivatives, namely gallic acid (GA), para-hydroxybenzoic acid (PHBA), protocatechuic acid (PCA), syringic acid (SA), and vanillic acid (VA). Based on a series of computed thermodynamics parameters, we have developed a comparative debate regarding their free radical scavenging activity in the gas phase and polar solutions (considering water and methanol solvents). This discussion expands to the elucidation of both the most preferred mechanism and the order of antioxidant activity in each environment. Paradoxically, calculations using the harmonic oscillator model of aromaticity (HOMA) suggest that H abstraction radicals gain stability as the central benzene ring loses structural aromaticity. Finally, spin densities and Fukui function f0 appear to be good indicators of the local reactivity of the five antioxidants toward free radicals.
Revised Regional Maximum Flood (RMF) method and regionalisation
Authors: du Plessis J A , Masule S
Published: October 2023

South Africa receives an average annual rainfall of about 450 mm. Hydraulic structures are typically constructed to either store or manage the excess water resulting from runoff. These hydraulic structures are designed and evaluated to withstand a particular flood peak that can occur in its catchment area. Adequate flow or rainfall records may often not be available to enable a reliable flood estimation. In South Africa an empirical estimation method (the Regional Maximum Flood (RMF)) that utilises regional envelope curves to estimate the maximum observed flood peaks that can be expected in a region, is available. The RMF method adopted by Kovács in 1980, and revised in 1988, is robust and simple to use. The current research revisits the method as applicable to South Africa, and presents an update of the method, taking more than 30 years of additional data and a revised regionalisation approach into consideration. Numerous previous researchers evaluated the RMF method and concluded that the method needs to be updated. It was identified that recently observed flood peaks exceeded the existing RMF envelopes. It was further identified that the Kovács regionalisation process is inconsistent, and a revised regionalisation approach was proposed. The revised regionalisation resulted in 15 RMF K regions and their associated envelope curves. The new RMF K regions are smaller, with the highest K value equal to 5.8 and the lowest value 2.8. The recommended envelope curves were drawn 15% above the maximum observed flood peaks for each region, allowing for possible future climate impacts. The revised RMF envelope curves are considered to adequately represent the RMFs in South Africa and are therefore applicable for determining the expected maximum regional flood at any site in South Africa.

Scientific and Technological Development in the Juche Model of Socialism
Authors:   Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation, Yurevich Maksim A.
Published: October 2023

The increasing geopolitical fragmentation has emerged as a new reality in the global economy. International sanctions stand as the principal tool employed by the United States and its allies for political, economic, and technological discrimination. Faced with these circumstances, sanctioned nations are driven to seek fresh avenues for economic progress, pivoting towards strategies of widespread import substitution and technological autonomy. Anchored in the doctrine of "Juche" (self-reliance), North Korea has consistently accorded precedence to its domestic scientific and technological domain. Initially centered around national defense until 2013, this priority subsequently extended into the concurrent development of both the military and civilian sectors. Striking accomplishments within the military-industrial complex have garnered extensive public attention and provoked serious apprehensions among less-friendly nations. Despite grappling with challenges in modernizing its economy amid conditions bordering on technological isolation, North Korea has effectively secured noteworthy achievements in specific sectors. Particularly remarkable is North Korea's proficiency in instituting a robust framework for training programmers and other IT specialists. Additionally, apart from bolstering digital security, the country has, as per diverse evaluations, procured a considerable and stable albeit illicit source of budget augmentation
Research on teaching reform of petrochemical courses in universities in the context of carbon neutrality
Authors: Zhao Junchao
Published: October 2023

The increasing pollution caused by carbon emissions has led to a growing call for emission reduction. With China's current goal of carbon neutrality, how to innovate the petrochemical industry has become a hot issue. As a higher education institution that delivers talent for the petrochemical industry, it is in line with this trend to carry out teaching reforms of professional courses. In this paper, we collect data extensively for the evaluation of course attainment in the petrochemical industry and carry out the weight allocation of factors. Two classes of a university's 2018 class of petrochemical industry majors were used as the comparison objects. One of the classes was taught in a reformed manner while the other class was taught in a traditional manner. The results showed that the overall score of the class subjected to reformed instruction was 78.9, which was greater than the 74.6 score of the class taught using the traditional approach. In addition, when surveyed for feedback on course content, it was found that a whopping 92% of students showed identification with their major. Only 2% of the students felt that the new teaching style was a waste of their time.

Authors: Wang Jian , Wang Yuzhen
Published: October 2023

The background of the big data era makes enterprise tax management face many opportunities and challenges, in order to improve the management of enterprise capital operation risks and promote the enterprise to take the road of sustainable development. This paper firstly indexes risk names with the help of web crawler technology, establishes data sources, and then circulates the crawler to obtain the required information. Secondly, a hashing algorithm is applied to compress the massive data into a unique and extremely compact section of hash values by means of constant mapping. Then association rules are used to determine the set of frequent risk items, and the values of the two are continuously changed to derive the final predictive analysis. Finally, a capital operation risk prediction and analysis platform is built by combining the above processes. In this paper, the effectiveness of the proposed platform is verified, and the practical results show that the accuracy of the proposed platform for risk prediction discovery is as high as 97%, and the time spent for risk discovery is controlled within 30 minutes. The relevant data results verify that big data technology improves the accuracy of enterprise capital operation risk prediction and analysis while accelerating the speed of risk discovery.

Authors: Ozgeyik Mehmet , Yildirim Ozge Turgay , Ozgeyik Mufide Okay , Murat Bektas , Murat Selda
Published: October 2023

Aim    Early diagnosis and treatment is very important in acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Previous studies showed that not all non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) patients should be considered and treated in the same way. The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), which is an easily accessible, rapidly computed, and cost-effective parameter, was evaluated in this study to determine the optimal intervention time for NSTEMI.Material and methods    469 patients diagnosed with ACS were included to the study. STEMI and NSTEMI patients were compared according to their SII. Univariate and binary logistic regression analysis were performed to determine which parameters have a significant effect on the discrimination of types of myocardial infarction.Results    The mean age of the patients was 61.43±11.52 yrs, and 348 (74.2 %) were male. NSTEMI patients with an SII value higher than 768×109 / l may be assumed to be STEMI (p<0.001). Univariate analysis and binary logistic regression showed that only SII and hypertension had statistically impact on differentiation of STEMI and NSTEMI. In addition, SII value of 1105×109 / l was the cut-off point for discrimination of cardiovascular survival (p<0.001, AUC =0.741). This study was performed to find out which NSTEMI patients should be treated percutaneously immediately after first medical contact according to SII. It was found that, SII value of higher than 768×109 / l is related with STEMI.Conclusion    In conclusion, NSTEMI patients with a SII value higher than 768×109 / l may be considered as STEMI and treated with in 120 min after first contact. In addition, SII was found to be a cardiovascular mortality predictor after myocardial infarction, and this may be used for identifying high-risk patients after percutaneous coronary intervention.
Contraction blocking during wound healing of three injured organs leads to absence of scar and induction of regeneration
Authors: Yannas Ioannis
Published: October 2023

We report the central role of mechanical contraction in healing of wounds in animal models, as well as in humans. Our evidence has been collected from studies of excised skin wounds as well as with the transected peripheral neve and the excised conjunctiva. We have observed that, following blocking of contraction, wounds in our animal models close by regeneration of the injured tissues. We review the mechanism of contraction blocking and tissue regeneration when wounds are grafted with a highly porous Type I collagen scaffold, named dermis regeneration template (DRT) which is required for inducing regeneration.

Authors:   the School of Computer Engineering, Suranaree University of Technology, Thailand, Kerdprasop Kittisak , Kerdprasop Nittaya , Chuaybamroong Paradee
Published: October 2023

This paper present the study results of predicting energy consumption in the steel industry using modeling methods based on machine learning and deep learning techniques. Machine learning algorithms used in this work include artificial neural network (ANN), k-nearest neighbors (kNN), random forest (RF), and gradient boosting (GB). Deep learning technique is long short-term memory (LSTM). Linear regression, which is the statistical-based learning algorithm, is also applied to be the baseline of this comparative study. The modeling results reveal that among the statistical-based and machine learning-based techniques, GB and RF are the best two models to predict energy consumption, whereas ANN shows the predictive performance comparable to the linear regression model. Nevertheless, LSTM outperforms both statistical-based and machine learning-based algorithms in predicting industrial energy consumption.
Automated Segmentation of Cervical Cell Images Using IMBMDCR-Net
Authors:   School of Physics and Electronics, Shandong Normal University, Jinan, China, Ding Yanjing , Yue Weiwei , Li Qinghua
Published: October 2023

Early screening of cervical lesions is of great significance in pathological diagnosis. Owing to the complexity of cell morphological changes and the limitations of medical images, accurate segmentation of cervical cells is still a challenging task. In this paper, an isomorphic multi-branch modulation deformable convolution residual model is proposed to extract features for enhancing the segmentation of small cells and overlapping cytoplasmic boundaries. Then the regional feature extraction, boundary box recognition, and adding a single pixel-level mask at the last level are integrated and optimized based on the cascade regional convolution neural network (Cascade R-CNN) to complete the segmentation of cervical cells for getting better accuracy. The proposed framework was evaluated on the ISBI2014 cervical cell segmentation competition public dataset. Experimental results show that the average accuracy of the network model in cervical cell segmentation is 81.1%, and the accuracy of small targets is 77%. To some extent, it can assist pathologists in screening cervical cancer in the early phase.
Prevalence of elevated blood lead level in children with global developmental delay and its relation with parental and child attributes
Authors: Arif M. , Firdaus Uzma , Ali Syed Manazir , Mahdi Abbas Ali , Zubair M. Yasir
Published: October 2023

Background: Lead, a potential neurotoxin, is found in soil, water and air as a result of its non-biodegradable nature. Common sources of lead toxicity in children are household paints, leaded pipes for water supply, canned food, coloured toys, herbal/folk remedies and electronic wastes. Along with this, other child and parental attributes have been found to contribute to elevated blood lead level (EBLL). Objectives were to estimate the prevalence and risk factors of EBLL in children with global developmental delay (GDD).
Methods: This hospital based cross sectional study was conducted between October 2019 and October 2021 at department of paediatrics of JNMCH, AMU, Aligarh. Data regarding clinical and sociodemographic characteristics as well as parental attributes was collected and entered on pre-designed proforma.
Results: Among 94 children with GDD mean BLL was found to be 6.72±6.46 mcg/dl and in their mothers it was 6.74±6.46 mcg/dl (p=0.984). A high prevalence of EBLL (>5 mcg/dl) in children with GDD (53.20%) and their mothers (49.3%) was noted. Various child and parental attributes were identified as potential sources of exposure to lead.
Conclusions: A high prevalence of EBLL in children with GDD in our study area might also suggest higher exposure from environmental sources such as soil, water, electronic waste, lead acid batteries, etc. For countries like ours which is rapidly undergoing industrialisation, these potential sources need to be identified promptly and swift action in this regard is needed in addition to preventive measures at personal and family levels.

The teeth were then thermocycled between 5°C and 50°C and then treated with 50% silver nitrate stain for 60 minutes. Samples were placed under 150 watt flood lamp for 5 minutes to allow proper fixation of unfixed stain. Then they were embedded in clear acrylic resin and sectioned twice longitudinally. The sections were observed under the stereomicroscope and stain penetration were recorded at tooth cement interfaces. The readings were tabulated and analyzed statistically using Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis H test.

.Zinc phosphate cement showed significantly maximum microleakage as compared to glass ionomer cement and resin cement.

Resin cement showed significantly less microleakage as compared to glass ionomer cement and zinc phosphate cement. Glass ionomer cement showed more microleakage as compared to resin cement but less as compared to zinc phosphate cement

Published: October 2023

Esta nota técnica presenta un panorama de las estrategias empresariales utilizadas para reducir las brechas de género en Panamá, utilizando los datos provenientes de la Herramienta Empresarial de Género (conocida como herramienta WEPs), una Encuesta de Medidas de Cuidado (EMC), y las Buenas Prácticas para la Igualdad de Género que ha recolectado la Secretaría Técnica de la Iniciativa de Paridad de Género (IPG) de Panamá. Los resultados indican que las empresas panameñas analizadas reconocen su rol para promover la igualdad de género y tomar medidas concretas para introducir políticas y prácticas, pero todavía se encuentran en vías de lograr un enfoque estratégico para implementar su compromiso, así como para medir e informar sobre su avance. Asimismo, las empresas encuestadas reconocen los beneficios de incorporar acciones de promoción de cuidados para sus organizaciones y 30% de ellas afirman estar interesadas en implementar medidas de corresponsabilidad o cuidado en el corto plazo, y 60% en el largo plazo. Este documento recomienda medidas a ser implementadas por la IPG, las empresas y el Gobierno de Panamá para fortalecer el compromiso con la equidad y cerrar brechas.
Facilitating Data Flows through Data Collaboratives: A Practical Guide to Designing Valuable, Accessible, and Responsible Data Collaboratives
Authors: Kalkar Uma , González Alarcón Natalia
Published: October 2023

Data is an indispensable asset in today's society, but its production and sharing are subject to well-known market failures. Among these: neither economic nor academic markets efficiently reward costly data collection and quality assurance efforts; data providers cannot easily supervise the appropriate use of their data; and, correspondingly, users have weak incentives to pay for, acknowledge, and protect data that they receive from providers. Data collaboratives are a potential non-market solution to this problem, bringing together data providers and users to address these market failures. The governance frameworks for these collaboratives are varied and complex and their details are not widely known. This guide proposes a methodology and a set of common elements that facilitate experimentation and creation of collaborative environments. It offers guidance to governments on implementing effective data collaboratives as a means to promote data flows in Latin America and the Caribbean, harnessing their potential to design more effective services and improve public policies.

DISTRIBUCIÓN DE LA COMUNIDAD DE HERPETOFAUNA ASOCIADA A CUATRO ÁREAS CON DIFERENTE GRADO DE PERTURBACIÓN EN LA ISLA GORGONA, PACÍFICO COLOMBIANO
Authors: Urbina-C. José Nicolás , Londoño-M. María Cecilia
Published: October 2023

Un total de 1.840 individuos pertenecientes a 28 especies (19 de reptiles y 9 de anfibios) fueron encontrados en la Isla Gorgona entre junio y julio de 2001. A partir de 32 secciones ubicadas en cuatro áreas con diferente grado de perturbación antrópica (prisión, cultivos de palma, bosque secundario y bosque primario), se encontró que la riqueza de especies fue mayor en el bosque secundario. Las especies registradas entre los bosques secundario y primario presentaron alta similaridad, igual que las encontradas en la prisión y los cultivos. Un análisis de correspondencia canónica (CCA) indicó que las especies de reptiles Boa constrictor, Basiliscus galeritus, Ameiva bridgesii y de anfibios Epipedobates boulengeri se encontraron asociadas a áreas abiertas y su distribución estuvo fuertemente determinada por la temperatura del hábitat. Por otra parte, las especies asociadas a áreas boscosas, Eleutherodactylus gularis, Eleutherodactylus achatinus y Bothrops atrox se encontraron muy influidas por la cobertura de dosel sobre su microhábitat; mientras que la distribución de Atelopus elegans, Bufo typhonius, Micrurus mipartitus y Enyalioides heterolepis estuvo fuertemente determinada por la cobertura arbustiva.
SUPERVIVENCIA DE MASTODONTES, MEGATERIOS Y PRESENCIA DEL HOMBRE EN EL VALLE DEL MAGDALENA (COLOMBIA) ENTRE 6000 Y 5000 AP.
Authors: Correal U. Gonzalo , Van der Hammen Thomas
Published: October 2023

Un análisis de la estratigrafía y dataciones de carbono 14 de una excavación en el sitio El Totumo (Tocaima, Cundinamarca, Colombia) donde se encontraron huesos de Mastodontes y Megaterios en asociación con artefactos líticos de tipo Abriense, conduce a la conclusión de que el hombre y la megafauna convivieron aún entre 6000 y 5000 antes del presente. Una estatua de la época temprana de la Cultura de San Agustín (quizás del siglo noveno antes de Cristo) muestra una cara o máscara elefantoide que puede significar que tenían conocimiento de la existencia de mastodontes todavía en esta época o un recuerdo ancestral (tradición cultural) de épocas anteriores.

Sosyal medya fenomenleri olan influencerların verdikleri tavsiyeler ile aldıkları etkileşimler sonucunda influencer pazarlaması oldukça popüler bir pazarlama alanı haline gelmiştir. Teknolojik gelişmelerle beraber bu kavram da çok hızlı değişim yaşamaktadır. Metaverse kavramının hayatımıza girmesiyle beraber influencer pazarlaması da yeni bir ivme kazanmış, klasik influencerlar’a ek olarak “avatar” influencerlar ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı günümüzde ve önümüzdeki dönemlerde Türkiye için avatar influencerların satın almaya etkilerinin araştırılmasıdır. Çalışma kapsamında, online anket formuna araştırma modelinde yer alan kavramlara ek olarak, bu çalışma için özel olarak hazırlanmış avatar influencerların tanıtıldığı video linki de dahil edilmiştir. Bu doğrultuda veriler sosyal medya platformları (Telegram, Instagram, LinkedIn) ve kütüphane, okul gibi kurumlara gidilerek birebir olarak 644 kişiden toplanmıştır. Filtreleme soruları ile aktif influencer takip eden 390 katılımcının verisi analize dahil edilmiştir. Analiz sonucunda avatar influencerın -uzmanlık, benzerlik ve çekicilik- olarak belirlenen özelliklerinin hiçbirinin satın alma niyeti üzerinde anlamlı bir etkiye sahip olmadığı bulunmuştur. Ancak influencera karşı tutumun satın alma niyetini olumlu etkilediği ve satın alma niyetinin de sadakat aracılığı ile WOM’u pozitif olarak etkilediği saptanmıştır.
