Authors:   Global Convergence Research Academy, Lee Jee-Eun
Published: June 2024

In this study, we focused on empilically analyzing the factors that influence consumer intention to use and purchase behavior at the introduction and diffusion stages of the innovative technology, ChatGPT Plus, using the Extended Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT). Furthermore, we examined the moderating roles of education and monthly income in specific relationships. To summarize the research results, firstly, among the technology acceptance factors affecting Chinese consumers' use of the innovative ChatGPT Plus paid service, the performance expectancy, effort expectancy, facilitating conditions proposed in the basic UTAUT, and hedonic motivation, price value, and content quality proposed in the extended UTAUT were found to significantly influence the intention to purchase the ChatGPT Plus paid service. On the contrary, it was found that social influence and usage habits do not significantly influence the intention to purchase ChatGPT Plus paid service. Secondly, among the technology acceptance factors that influence the use of ChatGPT Plus paid service, performance expectancy, hedonic motivation, and content quality showed a significant impact on purchase intention through the moderating effect of education. Thirdly, in this study, the purchase intention of ChatGPT Plus paid service was confirmed to have a positive effect on purchase behavior. Through these research results, artificial intelligence-related companies can respond more effectively to consumers' intention to use and purchase behavior, and on this basis, they can improve the quality of artificial intelligence products and GPT Plus services.

Empirical analysis was can-ied out by distributing a questionnaire to Chinese consumers who had experienced or completed purchases on AR technology-incorporated Chinese fashion platforms such as Yoho! Now, POIZON, Plum, MoGuJie, Cdf, among others. The survey was carried out via WeChat from March 10th to April 20th, 2023, garnering a total of 283 responses. Upon excluding 18 insincere responses, 265 responses were utilized for the final analysis. The key findings of the research can be summarised as follows. Firstly, core characteristics of the AR-integrated fashion platforms - perceived realism, enjoyment, and ease of use - were found to exert a positive influence on user satisfaction. Consequently, Hypotheses 1, 3, and 4 were duly accepted. Secondly, it was observed that user satisfaction pertaining to the AR-integrated fashion platforms positively influenced the intent of continuous platform usage. 1his fmding led to the acceptance of Hypothesis 5. Lastly, Hypothesis 6, which posited that the impact of the principal characteristics of AR-integrated fashion platforms on user satisfaction could vary based on the type of product, was partially accepted. ln essence, these findings underscore the significance of understanding AR technology characteristics in enhancing customer satisfaction and encouraging sustained platform usage.
Adaptability of Burgers Rheological Model and its Improved Model to the Creep Properties of Glue Laminated Bamboo
Authors: DING Ke , XIAO Yanluo
Published: June 2024

The proportion of bamboo material used in industrial production has increased year by year. The glue laminated bamboo (GLB) is a kind of bamboo engineering material. GLB can be used in modern buildings, bridges, furniture and other fields. It is necessary to study its mechanical properties, especially its creep properties. In the paper, the short-term creep performance of GLB is studied at four stress levels. At first, the Burgers rheological model (BRM) and the improved Burgers rheological model (IBRM) are used to study the creep properties of GLB. The parameters of the two models are obtained by fitting the experimental data. The results show that BRM is only suitable for the elastic deformation part of the GLB material. But the nonlinear viscosity coefficient is introduced into IBRM, so it can better describe the creep characteristics of GLB. On this basis, IBRM and BRM are used to predict the long-term creep performance of GLB based on the obtained creep parameters. The results show that the prediction error of BRM is large, and the prediction result of IBRM is in good agreement with the experimental data. It shows that IBRM is more suitable to describe the creep characteristics of GLB.

Published: June 2024

The objectives were to evaluate changes in testicular characteristics of peripubertal rams and determine their association with breeding soundness examination (BSE) classifications. We hypothesized that testicular echotexture and blood flow assessed via ultrasonography with Doppler would predict subsequent BSE classifications. Ram lambs (n = 40) were examined on intake for performance testing in May. In May and June, scrotal circumference (SC) and scrotal skin temperature measurements were obtained. Additionally, ultrasonography with Doppler was used to calculate total testicular volume (TTV), assess pixel intensity, and measure resistive (RI) and pulsatility (PI) indices of the right testicular artery. Rams underwent BSE ~ 10 weeks after the initial evaluation and either passed or failed based on SC and sperm quality. SC, TTV, and pixel intensity increased between May and June, whereas RI and PI decreased (p < 0.01). SC and scrotal skin temperature were greater (p = 0.03) for rams with an ‘excellent’ BSE classification than those that failed. SC was also positively correlated (r = 0.53; p < 0.01) with percent normal sperm at BSE. Testicular pixel intensity, RI, and PI did not differ (p ≥ 0.28) based on BSE classification. Decreased (p = 0.01) heart rates on intake in May were reported in rams with ‘excellent’ BSE classifications and associated with greater percent normal sperm (r = 0.42; p = 0.01) at BSE. In conclusion, ultrasonography with Doppler can be useful for assessing peripubertal development in ram lambs but provided limited capability in predicting BSE classification.

Batılı Değerlerin Doğulu Temsilcisi: Mîrzâ Feth Ali Ahundzâde
Authors: Işık Bağrıaçık Yeşim
Published: June 2024

Azerbaycan realist yazınının öncü isimlerinin başında gelen Mîrzâ Fethali Ahundzâde batıda yaşanan fikri değişimin bir ürünü olan Aydınlanma felsefesi çerçevesinde düşüncelerine yön vermiş, Rusya tahakkümünde olan Tiflis’te yaşadığı süreçte edindiği bilgiler doğrultusunda klasik Fars edebiyatına ve geleneksel yaşam biçimine eleştirel bir yaklaşım sergilemiştir. Ahundzâde, dini inanç ve gelenekle yoğrulan klasik Fars edebiyatını dönemin gerçeklerini yansıtmadığı gerekçesi ile eleştirmiştir. Klasik mazmunları ve tasavvufi konuları içeren şiirlerin “gerçek şiir” olmadığını, insanlığa katkı sağlamadığını iddia etmiştir. Özelde Kaçar Hanedanı dönemindeki edebiyat anlayışına eleştirel yaklaşıyormuş gibi gözükse de eleştirilerinin genel olarak dini ve geleneksel yaşam ile şekillenen bütün dönemleri içerdiği söylenebilir. Babası Fars olan Ahundzâde, Türk kimliğinin yanı sıra, Fars kimliğini de benimsemiştir. Koşulsuz şartsız batılılaşmayı ön gören Ahundzâde Müslüman bir Fars toplumu yerine Fars milliyetçiliğinin merkeze alındığı bir toplum ön görmüştür. Bu şekilde Ahundzâde dini ve kültürel değerlerden sıyrılarak, gerçekçi ve maddeci bir dünya görüşü oluşturmaya gayret etmiş, kadim İran devletlerini ideal devlet olarak göstermeye çalışmıştır. Gerek makaleleri gerekse tiyatro eserleriyle düşüncelerini beyan eden düşünürün edebiyat ve tarih alanında yaptığı eleştirileri kendinden sonraki İranlı yazar ve şairleri etkilemiştir. Bu çalışmada Ahundzâde’nin Fars edebiyatına, kültürüne, toplumuna ve tarih yazıcılığına bakış açısı kendi eserleri üzerinden değerlendirilmiştir. Ahundzâde’nin fikirlerinin oluşmasında yaygın kanı olarak tarihi koşullar gerekçe gösterilse de onun Rus ideolojisinin ve Batı’da ortaya çıkan Aydınlanma felsefesinin etkisinde olması ihtimali üzerinde durulmuştur. Batılı anlamda gerçekçi bir anlayış ortaya koymaya çalışan düşünürün kendi toplumunun gerçeklerini göz ardı ettiği sonucuna varılmıştır.
Çeviriyi Yakmak: Raymond van den Broeck’un Eleştiri Modeliyle Fahrenheit 451’in Türkçe Çevirisinin Eleştirisi
Authors: Uzunköprü Barbaros
Published: June 2024

Bu çalışmada Ray Bradbury’nin distopik romanı Fahrenheit 451’in Zerrin Kayalıoğlu ve Korkut Kayalıoğlu tarafından yapılan 2014 tarihli Türkçe çevirisi incelenmektedir. Fahrenheit 451; 1971’de Reha Pınar, 1984’te Dilara Özman ve 2018’de Dost Körpe tarafından Türkçeye çevrilmesine karşın bu çalışmada söz konusu çevirinin seçilmesinin nedeni Kayalıoğlu çiftinin diğer çevirmenlerden farklı olarak kaynak dil/kültür odaklı bir yaklaşım benimsemesidir. Bu yaklaşımın detaylı olarak incelenebilmesi içinse karşılaştırmalı analizden ziyade tek bir çeviriye odaklanılmıştır. Raymond van den Broeck’in çeviri eleştirisi modeline dayanan bu incelemede temel gaye yazım hatalarını ve yanlış çevirileri tespit etmek değil, çevirmenlerin kaynak odaklı bilinçli tercihlerini analiz etmek ve edebiyat çevirisinde kaynak odaklı yaklaşımın sonuçlarını gözlemlemektir. Bu yaklaşımla çevirmen tercihlerinin Bradbury tarafından yaratılan karmaşık evreni ve Bradbury’nin biçemini erek kültüre yansıtmada etkili olup olmadıkları anlaşılabilmektedir. Yedi farklı kategoride seçilen örnek cümle, sözcük, sözcük öbeği ve ifadeler çevirmenlerin metne, dile ve esere yaklaşımlarında kategorik olarak bir tutarlılık olduğunu ancak kategoriler arasında kısmî zıtlıklar bulunulduğunu göstermektedir. Çevirmenler metnin genelinde kaynak dile ve kültüre fazlasıyla bağlı kalmışlar ve tercihlerinde çoğu zaman sözcüğü sözcüğüne çeviri yöntemine başvurmuşlardır. Bu durumun sonucunda erek metinde doğallıktan feragat edilmiş ve yer yer Türk okurun aşina olmadığı ifade ve cümle yapıları tercih edilmiştir. Buna karşın çevirmenlerin ikileme ve pekiştirmeler ile nidalar konusunda yaratıcı çözümlere başvurarak genel çeviri stratejilerinden farklı bir yaklaşım sergiledikleri görülür. Çevirmenler aynı zamanda yazarın özgün biçeminden farklı bir biçem ortaya koymakla yeniden yaratım yoluna gitmişlerdir. Nitekim bu eleştirel inceleme, Fahrenheit 451 özelinde distopya türünün çevirisine ilişkin zorlukların derinlemesine anlaşılmasına katkıda bulunmakta, edebiyat çevirisinde kaynak odaklı yaklaşımın yarattığı sonuçları gösteren bir örnek niteliği taşımaktadır.

The implication of this study shows that improving the quality and credibility of information on social media is very important for the effectiveness of the prevention of deviant sexual behaviour among adolescents.
Mitigating the Risk of Prosecutiontermination Based on Restorative Justice from Transactional Aspects
Authors: Ibnu Mazjah R. Muhamad
Published: June 2024

Restorative justice, as a manifestation of the Prosecutor's authority and discretion in controlling criminal cases, is vulnerable to abuse of authority if it is not supported by the principle of accountability and a robust supervision system. This research aims to strengthen the authority of prosecutors in applying restorative justice by strengthening regulations at the legal level and proposing stricter criteria for crimes that fall into this category. The research method used is normative legal research, which aims to find coherence between the Prosecutor's authority and legal norms, legal concepts, and legal principles through a legislative and conceptual approach. This study finds that implementing restorative justice by prosecutors requires strengthening regulations and a more muscular supervision system to prevent abuse of authority and ensure legal certainty and justice for all parties. This study implies the need for more transparent regulations and a strict monitoring system to avoid abuse of authority in the application of restorative justice by prosecutors, ensure an accountable law enforcement system, and protect human rights.
Integrating Embodied Ethos, Pathos, and Logos for Ethical Practices in Organizations
Authors: Küpers Wendelin , Mnisri Kamel ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: June 2024

As a response to the decoupling of the ‘talk’ and the ‘walk’ in organizations regarding claimed goodness and actions, this contribution explores the role of the rhetorical modes of ethos, pathos, and logos as a new form of wise communication to handle timely ethical and societal issues. We develop a criticism of one-sided, often logos-oriented and instrumentalizing, irresponsible and unresponsive approaches taken by organizations in their communication efforts, and then go on to propose a more balanced, proto-wise integration of the three modes as part of embodied practice. We differentiate and reintegrate these rhetorical forms, and discuss them in relation to embodied, ethical and aesthetic practices that are qualified as responsible, responsive, and reasonable in and beyond organizations. Finally, some implications and perspectives on organizing an embodied, living ethos of sustainability are suggested.

Unraveling the diversity and spatial distribution of Soil-borne Fungal Mycobiomes with response to environmental parameters, cropping schemes and cropping seasons
Authors: Arif Muhammad
Published: June 2024

The arid zones are vital agricultural areas, yet they encounter substantial obstacles due to destructive plant diseases caused by soil-borne fungal pathogens. Gaining knowledge about the structure and behavior of the fungus community in the soil and its connection to these ailments is crucial for developing efficient ways to manage the diseases. This study aimed to examine the fungal communities found in soil in areas with high temperatures and multiple cropping schemes. The main objectives of this study were to provide insight into the relationship between these fungal communities, environmental circumstances, and the occurrence of severe plant diseases. Soil samples were collected from agricultural fields exhibiting disease outbreaks, and the fungus diversity was analyzed using modern techniques. The results of this study revealed a diverse array of soil-dwelling fungi, encompassing both beneficial and detrimental species. The presence of pathogenic fungi, specifically basidiomycetes and ascomycetes, in soils where disease outbreaks occur frequently suggests that they play a substantial role in the development of these diseases. Temperature, moisture, and soil conditions also affected fungal community structure and disease dynamics. These findings highlight the importance of soil-borne fungus mycobiome in forecasting and managing plant diseases. To reduce severe plant diseases and preserve agricultural sustainability in these areas, integrated disease management must include the complex interactions between soil fungus, plant hosts, and environmental conditions. To understand fungal pathophysiology and develop targeted disease preventive and control measures, a comprehensive study is required.

Impregnation of Ch, ZnO and SnO2 nanoparticles increased the thermal stability of lignocellulosic materials, resulting in weight losses of 75.7-80.5% between 339-387°C. The binding of nanoparticles through impregnation also increased the water uptake rate, while silanization with HP increased hydrophobicity by 22.9-26.2%. The resulting wood was evaluated in terms of durability and performance as well as water and fire resistance, and it was predicted that it could be a sustainable approach to minimize the effects of adverse weather conditions on wood materials while reducing negative impacts on the environment and human health.

Artvin ilinde bulunan modern mimaride yapılan Şehitlik Köyü Camisine, tamamı mermer olan Amasya Mehmet Paşa minberi ve Trabzon Ortahisar Fatih Cami mihrabının mimari motifleri örnek alınarak ahşap işlemelerin uygulanması amaçlanmıştır. Ahşap süsleme tekniklerinin detaylı bir şekilde uygulandığı bu eserdeki işlemlerin çoğu bilgisayar destekli üretim ile yapılarak yapıdaki tüm ahşap işlemelerde masif paneller ve kereste kullanılmıştır. Kabartmalar, grift hatlar ve bitkisel motiflerin yoğun kullanıldığı bu yapıda, tarihi ve kültürel mimari motifler, analizler ve çizimler ayrıntılı biçimde incelenmiştir. Genel olarak Türk-islam kültüründen etkilenen cami anlayışı dönem dönem farklılıklar göstermiştir. Anadolu Selçuklu, erken-klasik-geç Osmanlı dönemi ve çağdaş dönem ile farklı çizgiler bulunmaktadır. O dönemdeki motifleri yaşatmak adına bilgisayar destekli üretimin önemli parçası olan CNC makinası ile çalışmalar yapılmıştır. Modern mimaride yapılan bu esere, tarihi kültürel değere sahip erken dönem Osmanlı motiflerini barındıran işlemeler uygulanmıştır. Ağaç türü olarak sapelli ve dişbudak ağacı kullanılarak taş ve mermerde uygulanan süsleme tekniklerine uygun işlemeler yapılmıştır.

Öğretimde öğrenmelerin kalıcılığını artıran önemli değişkenlerden biri de pekiştireçlerdir. Bu araştırmada Din Kültürü ve Ahlak Bilgisi (DKAB) öğretmenlerinin pekiştireç kullanım düzeylerini tespit etmek amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmanın çalışma evrenini; 2023-2024 eğitim-öğretim yılında Malatya ili merkez ilçelerindeki ilkokul ve ortaokullarda görev yapan 613 DKAB öğretmeni oluşturmaktadır. Çalışma evreni üzerinden tesadüfi örneklem seçimiyle belirlenmiş 323 DKAB öğretmeni ise, örneklem grubunu oluşturmaktadır. Nicel bir çalışma olan araştırmada genel tarama modeli kullanılmıştır. Veri toplama aracı olarak Özcan (1998) tarafından geliştirilen Pekiştireç Kullanmayla İlgili Tutum Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın bulgularına göre DKAB öğretmenlerinin pekiştireç kullanım düzeyleri yüksektir. DKAB öğretmenlerinin pekiştireç kullanım düzeylerinde cinsiyet değişkeni açısından kadın öğretmenlerin lehine anlamlı bir farklılık olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Pekiştireç kullanım düzeylerinde ‘medeni durum’, ‘hizmet süresi’ ve ‘eğitim durumu’ değişkenleri açısından anlamlı bir farklılık bulunmamıştır. Okul türü değişkenine göre ilkokul öğretmenlerinin pekiştireç kullanım düzeylerinin ortaokul öğretmenlerine göre daha yüksek olduğu tespit edilmiştir. ‘Yaş’ değişkeni açısından 41 yaş ve üzeri öğretmenlerin pekiştireç kullanım düzeylerinin daha yüksek olduğu görülmüştür.

Doğu Anadolu bölgesinde Elazığ ilinin dokuz km kuzeyinde yer alan ve temelleri M.Ö. 20. yüzyılda atılmış olan Harput, geçmişten günümüze kadar önemli bir ilim ve kültür merkezi olmuştur. Bulunduğu konum itibariyle birçok medeniyeti içinde barındıran Harput’un, Müslüman Türkler tarafından fethedilmesinden sonra kurulan camiler, medreseler, dârülkurrâ, dârülhadis, dârülhatt gibi müesseseler eğitim ve öğretim faaliyetlerini artırmış ve birçok ilim adamının yetişmesine vesile olmuştur. Tabakat kitapları, İslami ilimler ve Harput ile ilgili yazılan eserler tetkik edildiğinde bu ilim ehli arasında kıraat ilminde yetkinliğe sahip olmuş, bu alanda birçok öğrenci yetiştirerek onlara icazet vermiş ve kıraat ilmiyle ilgili önemli eserler telif etmiş birçok kurrâ bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmamızda Harput’ta doğup yetişen ve burada tahsil gören kıraat âlimleri tanıtılarak onların hayatları, telif ettikleri eserler incelenmiştir. Ayrıca bu kurrâların kıraat ilminde ders aldıkları hocaları ve hangi kitapları okudukları, kendilerinden eğitim gören öğrencileri ve onlara hangi kitapları okuttukları, ilim için gittikleri beldeler hakkında da bilgi verilmiştir. Böylece Harput’un İslam ve Medeniyet tarihinde kıraat alanında yetiştirdiği şahsiyetlerle ilim dünyasına sağladığı katkı ortaya konmaya çalışılmıştır.

The translation of the Qur'an into various languages is not only done by Muslims, but non-Muslims  (orientalists) also participate in translating it. There was a very long polemic during the translation of the Qur'an. The purpose of this research is to elaborate on the role and development of the Qur'an translation among orientalists that later gave birth to the characteristics (model) of translation. This research uses descriptive analytical method with library research. The data were obtained through books, articles, journals, and other writings related to the research theme. The results show that there are three characteristics of translation in the role and development of al-Qur'an translation by orientalists. First, the translation was aimed at undermining Islam. This lasted from the 12th century AD to the 17th century AD. Second, the translation of the Qur'an began to reduce the elements of hatred against Islam and they began to be open to the corpus of Muslim interpretations, although there were still few traces of their predecessors. This period lasted from the 17th century to the 19th century, and it should be noted that the 18th century became the starting point of the translation paradigm shift. Third, the translation of the Qur'an that has begun to be objective. Third, the translation of the Qur'an that has been friendly and objective. The 9th century until now is a bright spot for orientalists who translate the Qur'an. Many of the orientalists began to be open and gentle in explaining Islam, they also often use Muslim interpretations as a reference. In fact, some of them when explaining Islam there are trying to defend Islam from the attacks of previous orientalists.
