Design Research Methods--Applied Theory and Studio
Authors: Fischer Ole
Published: March 2022

Today, the curriculum at schools of architecture is generally subdivided into design studio (practice) and the adjacent scientific or scholarly subjects ranging from natural sciences to technology to humanities, often with their own separate faculty, degrees, and institutional structures. This separation is widely experienced as a fragmentation of a discipline that claims to be integrative and wholistic. This essay provides a sketch for an alternative pedagogical format of integrated design research methods and studio at the graduate level, which could help bridge these perceived institutional gaps, but also offer a research agenda of its own kind. Design Research Methods is framed here as an applied theory, since exemplary design approaches themselves are selected, analyzed, comparatively discussed, and serve as a primer in the studio environment, while in turn the studio tests various theoretical concepts, design approaches, tools, and methods, and provides feedback to theory. This applied theory is not meant to replace traditional forms of critical inquiry, reading, and writing but should serve as a complementary addition that empowers students to define their own research and design agenda for their thesis year and beyond.

Developing Intent and Application Through Virtual Design-Build
Authors: Beach David
Published: March 2022

The process of design-build links intention and application within a curriculum that is difficult to replicate in a traditional educational studio. While most effective in the analogue world, design-build can be simulated within a classroom by leveraging virtual reality as a curriculum connecting client, spatial immersion, precedent study, construction, fabrication, and a digital design toolset. This paper and presentation will outline a course curriculum for second-year design students at the Hammons School of Architecture that leverages the pedagogy of design-build within a virtual process. The project connects specific intent for our client by crafting spatial experiences for the CHIL (Children’s Hospital Innovation Lab) Zone, a pediatric care unit of Montefiore Medical Center in New York that brings technology to their patients. Leveraging tools like AR (alternate reality), VR (virtual reality), and 3D fabrication, patients in the CHIL Zone are moved virtually beyond the confines of rooms when their medical limitations often reduce their opportunities for exploration. Approaching the process in a parallel modality to a design-build curriculum, student application happens through the construction of virtual versions of a precedent design study, including site, phasing, construction methods, details, and basic communication of the spatial concepts for their clients (kids from twelve to eighteen in a pediatric care unit). The process happens within the immersive qualities of virtual reality, creating a narrative about the architectural design that each student must communicate. Each project is resolved by finalizing a VR “docummersion” film that includes the precedent study and specific spatial elements of their own design. This process is directly generating new understandings of the design-build process. It is developing considerations of architecture and design thinking, including spatial exploration as a form of rehabilitation and health care, architectural design intended solely for use in virtual reality, and the connection of virtual reality and cognitive spatial awareness for design education.

Putting Participation into Practice: Strategies for Evolving Architecture
Authors: Dubyoski Jodi
Published: March 2022

For decades, schools of architecture have included hands-on education in their curricula in the form of design-build studios; often these studio experiences are guided by a social mission and employ participatory methods. In other cases, university community design centers provide opportunities for students to engage with community members on real-world projects. My own academic experience (which was far from unusual) involved the former, beginning with a summer studio focused on asset-based community development and participatory engagement framed within a design-build experience that launched me on a career-long path. Being confronted with a profession that conducts business as usual while academia is grooming a generation of socially responsible architects is jarring for new graduates . Today’s professionals approaching mid-career are unsatisfied with outdated business models that do not address contemporary concerns about social impact. Barriers to participatory engagement in practice include hourly billing that discourages clients from commissioning non-mandatory stakeholder engagement, as well as a culture of pro-bono work that ultimately accelerates burnout and devalues professional services. New ways of thinking require new ways of doing business. Today’s practitioners are seeking more sustainable methods of integrating the participatory strategies they employed in academia into contemporary practice. Drawing on extensive research conducted on the history of community design during my Master of Architecture, and using illustrations from my own path—from a student during the post-Katrina era to owning a community design practice—I propose strategies for challenging current models of practice. Specifically, I demonstrate how my current work with private landowners and nonprofit economic development groups incorporates participatory methods learned during my academic experience, borrowing from an interdisciplinary range of sources, including anthropology, sociology, and planning, as well as others who are disrupting the status quo of delivering creative services.
The Stranger in the Architectural Project on the City
Authors: Macken Jared
Published: March 2022

This paper presents the project “Two Strangers Meet in a Parking Lot” and associated research studios as a case study of decolonized architecture pedagogy. The project conceptualizes the stranger as an alternative architectural user, creating a dialectical conversation with the users and architectural visions from architectural history. This dialogue encourages new pedagogical research methodologies related to the topic of city design. The case study uses these methodologies to recuperate lost cultural histories of Tennessee Town, an overlooked neighborhood in Topeka, Kansas, with an important connection to the Harlem Renaissance. According to Kwame Anthony Appiah, strangers transgress and challenge cultural boundaries by creating conversations at the edges of these borders, yet strangers counterintuitively utilize the environments in the city that are initially foreign to them to produce alternative cultural knowledge. This interaction between stranger and entities in the city provides a model for how disciplines can communicate across their own boundaries. The strangers’ conversation, when transferred to the architectural studio setting, becomes what Mark Linder calls “transdisciplinary” discourse, which occurs at the borders of adjacent disciplines. The resulting knowledge intentionally highlights overlooked and misinterpreted cultural moments in the city while creating an alternative to traditional interdisciplinary modes of working, which the philosopher Homi Bhabha says is essential if disciplinary fields are to progress with the global city. The “Two Strangers” case study consists of built structures that were designed, first, to transform people into strangers and, then, to instigate conversations between them. As a result, strangers become acquaintances and exchange new knowledge. The architectural studio course explored this idea further by taking students outside of the classroom where they engaged with the community through conversations with city archivists, community leaders, city council persons, urban planners, and museum directors.
Doing the Right Things
Authors: Ra Seung
Published: March 2022

In John Tabita’s essay "Doing Things Right versus Doing the Right Things," he discusses two different approaches in the business management world: tactical thinking and strategic thinking. This opens up an interesting debate between creating the vision and implementing the vision. He offers a fair argument for both approaches. They are beneficial to tackling a problem and fundamental to success in business. Yet there is a critical tension between a tactical thinker who tends to "do things right" and a strategic thinker who is inclined to "do the right things." "If you do something 'right,' but it is the wrong thing to do, your efforts will be futile. Conversely, if you do the 'right thing,' but you do it wrong, you will also fail miserably" (Tabita 2011, n.p.). How can we apply this inquiry to architectural pedagogy? The current model of architectural program curricula is based on the tactical approach, predominantly skill-based design education. Therefore, the measure of success in architectural pedagogy of NAAB-accredited programs tends to be solutions for tackling a design problem. While the tactical thinking process is needed and essential, how can we implement the strategic thinking process into our current architecture curricula to promote the idea of "Doing the Right Things"? The research paper is rooted in an upper-division special topics course, Data-Driven Research Methods, and will showcase two projects. The first, Spatial Network Analysis for Oklahoma City Streetcar, is focused on the infrastructure of the streetcar and its effects on the urban environment. The second project, Interactive Podium, uses embedded computing technology to create a visual platform for interaction between users. By developing diverse perspectives of the research process, the architecture curricula can nurture an effective decision-making process and proactively seek the "right things."

Toward Autonomous Learning: Exploring the Impact of Participating in an Online Second Language Learning Course
Authors:   Facultad de Comunicaciones, Universidad de Las Américas, Sede Providencia, Manuel Montt 948, Santiago, Chile, Cárcamo Benjamín , Pérez Cristian
Published: March 2022

As online education programs increase their numbers, autonomous learning becomes more necessary to achieve academic success. The present research determines the impact that participating in an online course has on students’ language learner autonomy. To quantify this impact the Measuring Instrument for Language Learner Autonomy was applied in the second and last week of the course. By means of a paired samples t-test, it was confirmed that the students participating in the course increased their language learner autonomy. Additionally, the specific behaviors that changed were revealed to be associated with self-regulated learning. Therefore, it can be asserted that participation in the online learning course led to an increase of the level of autonomy of the students by means of increasing the frequency of behaviors related to taking charge of their own learning process.

Published: March 2022

The concept of financial literacy is gaining importance across the globe to achieve financial wellbeing. The governments worldwide are involved in finding effective approaches to enhance the financial literacy level for reducing poverty and sustainable development. The review of literature clearly depicts a lower level of financial literacy across the globe is low. Further, the demographics factors influence the level of financial literacy of an individual. Hence, an attempt has been made to study the impact of demographic factors like age, gender, caste, marital status, education level, profession, income level, saving percentage, family size and number of dependants on financial literacy has been analysed using Chi-square test. A sample of 385 is collected using Multistage Random Sampling Method from north part of Karnataka, India to achieve the objectives of the study. It is concluded that the demographic factors like education level, profession, income level, saving percentage, family size have an association with the level of financial literacy.
Does FDI Generate Employment? An Empirical Study of Indian Service Sector
Authors: Aarif Mohammad , Tarique Md.
Published: March 2022

Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) considered as a component of investment is needed by India to accomplish the ambition behind economic reforms and speed up the growth of the economy. The inflow of FDI in India initially was low due to regulatory policy framework but there is a sharp rise in investment flows from 2005 onwards as the new policy has broadened. The purpose of this paper is to look for evidence regarding the precise relationship between FDI inflows and employment in service sector of India. The used Auto-Regressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model explains long run and short run relationship between FDI inflows and employment in service sector. The empirical results confirm that though negative relationship exists between FDI and employment in service sector but it is not statistically significant. According to the findings, FDI introduces skilled skewed technical changes to the host country, increasing demand for highly skilled employees. Because India’s labour force is relatively unskilled, FDI in the service sector fails to provide jobs for the country’s rising labour force. The ARDL results also confirm the existence of the long run co-integration between FDI and employment in service sector. The finding shows that the stock of the FDI is a significant factor for Indian service sector.
Determinants of Financial Inclusion of Urban Women: Evidence from Ahmedabad, India
Authors: Trivedi Anjali
Published: March 2022

One of the utmost active practices is to adopt an inclusive growth policy to achieve economic growth. An inclusive growth means include the excluded population into all benefits. Financial inclusion is a financial upliftment process, to help poor, slum, backward and women to come out from the poverty trap. Financial inclusion means inclusion of excluded population to access formal financial services like savings, borrowings, insurance and pension from formal financial institutions. For constructing strong financial system, it is very necessary to know first that whether sources of financial services are actually reaching to the unreached people; the awareness among people for the formal financial services i.e., financial literacy and inclusion of the excluded population by providing banking services. Among socio-economic problems in India, gender inequality is one of the major affecting problems. A noteworthy access gap has taken place between male and female regardless of significant development in broadening access to formal financial products in the country. The main objectives of this research are to examine nature and extent of accessing major financial inclusion services including Government financial inclusion programs by urban women and to analyze the determinants of financial inclusion for urban women of Ahmedabad district (having highest urban female population in Gujarat). Primary data collection method is used through semi-structured questionnaire. Probit model is constructed to analyze the financial inclusion determinants of urban women of Ahmedabad district. Considered major financial inclusion services are opening bank account, savings, borrowings and insurance. Major finding of this study is that poor urban women are being considered as less benefitted from financial inclusion services, where in-migration, financial literacy and borrowings were found to significantly influence the participation of urban women in financial inclusion programs.
A Critical Evaluation of Employability Skills of Postgraduates and its Impact on their Job Prospects
Authors: Nirmala Catherine , Dsouza Sabina Joan
Published: March 2022

Employability skills have become the need of the hour. Many postgraduates are lacking the necessary skills to be employable. This paper explores different kinds of employability skills as perceived by employers. The objective of this study was to examine the extent to which the academic curriculum and extra-curricular activities of Higher Educational Institutions meet this urgent need to make the Postgraduates more employable and bridge the gap between industry requirements and college fresher’s. The data was analysed using the Descriptive Analysis technique, Friedman’s Test, Chi-Square analysis, and Correlation Analysis. The major findings of the study are that Campus recruitment features at the top mode of recruitment as the recruiter’s preference for the right candidate to find the right job. Though the hardcore subjects in the curriculum are designed to make the Postgraduate student industry ready, many are not able to pass through the technical skills round, aptitude, general knowledge skills, communication skills test rounds conducted during Campus recruitment drives. There seems to be a disconnect in the minds of the students who are not able to apply theoretical concepts learnt in their curriculum to the practical challenges in business and industry. Postgraduates need to acquire soft skills along with their curriculum. This study has serious implications in that Universities and Colleges have to develop a curriculum framework that includes training the students in aptitude building and ensuring that skill development becomes the most vital part of higher education so as to make the student industry-ready.
A Review on Research Perspectives on Social Entrepreneurial Intention Formation
Authors: M. Savitha , Lakkol Savitha G.
Published: March 2022

Social Entrepreneurship (SE) has gained booming interest among both researchers as well as practitioners. Researchers have defined SE in various forms of businesses. This study briefly reviewed various studies defining Social Entrepreneurship by several authors that helped to arrive at a comprehensive understanding of the terms, ‘social enterprise’ or ‘social venture’, ‘social entrepreneur’ and ‘social entrepreneurship’. Through the initial review the paper attempts to define the social enterprise/entrepreneur/entrepreneurship. All the three concepts emphasise that social enterprise neither entirely belongs to ‘for-profit’ nor ‘not-for-profit’ enterprises. Hence, social enterprises can be positioned along a continuum between enterprises pursuing purely social goals and strictly backed by economic goals. The next section of the study reviews different kinds of ascendants of social entrepreneurial intentions found in the literary studies. The study revolves around the most common factors influencing the social entrepreneurial intentions by reviewing the relevance of selected studies considering the unit of analysis. The social entrepreneurial intention is found to be influenced by empathy, moral judgment, self-efficacy, social support, prior experience in facing and addressing the social problems. These antecedents were commonly found in those studies in which the responses were sought from the social entrepreneur as well as from students. Through the review, it is clear that there is a call to put through an extensive exploratory as well as empirical research to support the stated antecedents of social entrepreneurial intention in the existing literature.

Published: March 2022

In numerous aspects of digital marketing usage, India is among the top two countries in the world. Almost all businesses currently use digital marketing. Thousands of start-up businesses with new ideas strive to break into the corporate sector every year. Unless they have a good marketing plan, start-ups and SMEs will be unable to compete with established and lucrative organisations. One of the leading causes of business failure is a lack of a comprehensive digital marketing strategy. However, not all of the tools available to a digital marketer are equally productive. The barrier between the “haves” and the “have nots” is narrowing as technology interventions become more widely available. Some digital marketing methods succeed, while others fail. In view of the importance of digital marketing usage in India, this paper provides a framework based on Diffusion of Innovation (DOI). It also makes use of Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) theory for obtaining conceptual framework. Two constructs are used by the researcher to frame the conceptual framework: technical and environmental. The current study employs an exploratory research design in which the study attempts to investigate the level of awareness of digital marketing tools as well as the factors influencing the adoption of digital marketing by start-ups and Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) using a positivist research philosophical stand. For statistical interpretation, the study used the SPSS tool and Smart PLS. The current study’s population consists of owners and managers of manufacturing and service-based start-ups and SMEs operating in Karnataka’s North Karnataka area. To collect answers from the audience, this study employs a mixed methodological technique. Smart PLS - Structural Equational Modelling (SEM) is used to validate relevant hypotheses. For factor grouping and identification, the SPSS programme was employed. To obtain the SEM model, the discovered components were iterated using Smart PLS software.
Gender Bias in Financial Planning for Retirement

Published: March 2022

Socio-economic factor, family structure has impact on the various facets of economy as well as individual’s life, specifically after retirement. In the past, primarily India had joint family structure or a compound family structure, which was a great source of support after retirement. Today India’s population is growing but average family size is reducing. This phenomenon translates into more retired people per working individual. If pretired individuals are financially secure, their hardships of old age can be reduced to a large extent. Per capita income today, is far greater as compared to past with many more investment avenues to suit ones requirement. Financial plan is required to satisfy financial needs at various stages of life. Income after retirement is consequence of the investments made during work life, which is the result of the financial plan for retirement. The census data indicates life expectancy for women is higher than men. Hence, it is important that women make financial planning for their financial needs after retirement. Financial literacy, savings and clarity of objectives are positively related to financial planning by the individuals. The data for the study is collected using Google Forms from the individuals employed in ITES sector in the city of Bengaluru. Logistic regression model is used to evaluate variance in the financial planning for retirement due to explanatory factors, ‘clarity of financial goal’, ‘attitude towards savings’ and ‘financial literacy’ on ‘financial planning for retirement. Independent t test is used to evaluate difference between men and women. The study revealed that explanatory variables had influence on the financial planning for retirement and t test revealed that men and women do not differ in their behavior.
Reimaging Talent Management through Adaptive Performance in the Next Normal
Authors: Luthia Mahesh
Published: March 2022

Developing and retaining employees who are adaptable and demonstrate resilience is one of the major talent management challenges leaders are facing. In the Next normal when Organisations are dealing with new challenges post the pandemic there is a need to revisit how employee performance would be assessed. While the traditional approach has been to focus on task performance, in the current dynamic environment there is a need to develop and retain a workforce who are more adaptable and demonstrate resilience. Based on the need to deal with challenges and changes associated with Talent Management in the current, the study suggests the need to integrate adaptive measures of performance to be competent to perform in the future. The study draws attention to the importance of focusing on a performance management system as a talent management strategy to realize business value and reward the individual contribution of employees. Drawing on existing literature through a systematic review of existing studies the research identifies dimensions of adaptive performance and interventions by transformational leaders that can facilitate these behaviours and performance. The interventions are aimed at developing collaboration among employees, learning, adaptability and dealing with uncertain and complex situations. These interventions can support leaders to develop themselves as leaders to help Organisations to prepare for change. The managerial implications of the interventions are discussed and future areas of research are identified.

La quinua (Chenopodium quinoa Willd) es consumida a nivel mundial  debido a su composición nutricional. Es importante conocer las características agronómicas que se ven influenciadas por las condiciones edafoclimáticas y evaluar el comportamiento agronómico de 81 genotipos de quinua del Instituto Nacional de Innovación Agraria (INIA) sembradas en las localidades de Cusco, Puno, Ayacucho y Junín, bajo un diseño experimental de bloques completos al azar, con tres repeticiones. Se evaluaron las variables: altura de planta, diámetro de panoja, longitud de panoja, rendimiento, severidad de infección de mildiu (Peronospora farinosa) e índice de selección (IS), en siembras del 2017 y 2018. La comparación de medias se realizó mediante la prueba de Tukey, análisis de conglomerados, componentes principales, correlación de Pearson y la evaluación del índice de selección para identificar la adaptación de los genotipos. Los resultados mostraron que la siembra del 2018 tuvo los mayores rendimientos. El análisis de conglomerados encontró la formación de tres grupos, donde el grupo tres mostró las mejores características en rendimiento, altura de planta, diámetro y longitud de panoja. El análisis de componentes principales mostró correlaciones positivas entre variables altura de planta, diámetro y longitud de panoja. Más del 45% de los tratamientos mostraron un índice de selección mayor a uno y se identificaron 16 genotipos con nivel bajo de severidad de infección a mildiu. Las localidades de Cusco y Puno reportaron el mejor comportamiento agronómico para los 81 genotipos.

La apicultura genera divisas para México, sin embargo, Tabasco ocupa el 25vo lugar en producción a nivel nacional. El municipio de Comalcalco, posee recursos agroecológicos con potencial apícola. Con el objetivo de analizar los aspectos socioeconómicos y técnicos de la apicultura, se entrevistaron 11 apicultores, clasificándolos en cuatro estratos. Los apiarios fueron georreferenciados para geoprocesamiento. Se determinó la africanización mediante ADNmt en zánganos. La edad promedio de los apicultores fue 48 años, con 8 años de experiencia, detectando que la apicultura no es su principal actividad económica. El rendimiento de miel fue de 46.2 kg Colonia−1 mayor al promedio estatal (37 kg Colonia−1). El análisis del ADNmt identificó 100% de africanización, posiblemente debido a que el cambio anual de abejas reinas de origen europeo no se realiza. Se identificaron cuatro agroecosistemas contrastantes. Los resultados encontrados indican que se requiere implementar estrategias para el aprovechamiento sustentable del germoplasma apícola y generacional en la entidad.

Durante un periodo de siete meses de monitoreo, se usaron redes de niebla para la captura de murciélagos, colocadas en cuatro unidades de muestreo (UM) con distinta condición de perturbación; la diversidad de murciélagos se describió con base en el número efectivo de especies y sus respectivas comparaciones entre UM, también los murciélagos fueron clasificados a nivel de especie, por gremio trófico y por su respuesta a la condición de perturbación en cada UM. Se registraron 561 individuos de 26 especies de murciélagos, que no mostraron diferencias en el número efectivo de especies por UM. El gremio frugívoro estuvo representado por el 38% de las especies de murciélagos y el 50% de las especies registradas tuvieron una respuesta vulnerable ante la condición de perturbación. La diversidad de murciélagos observada es un bioindicador de que a pesar de la fragmentación y perturbación del BMM, las especies se han adaptado a las condiciones actuales del paisaje.

İletişim teknolojilerinin gelişmesiyle dijitalleşen dünyada çevrimiçi etkileşimi sağlayan en önemli tüketim ürünlerinden olan dijital oyunlara, özellikle gençler ve çocuklar, boş zamanlarını geçirmek ve eğlenmek için çok fazla rağbet göstermektedir. Egemen ideoloji olan ataerkil kapitalizm, verilmek istenen hegemonik kodları dijital oyunlar aracılığıyla açık veya örtük mesajlarla hedef kitleye ulaştırmaktadır. Ataerkil kapitalist ideolojinin, hegemonik erkekliğin inşasında tıpkı geleneksel medya içeriklerini olduğu gibi dijital oyunları da kullandığı varsayımından yola çıkan bu çalışmada, Red Dead Redemption II adlı oyun incelenmiştir. Oyunun içeriğinin nitel betimsel analiz ile çözümlenmesi aracılığıyla hegemonik erkeklik ideolojisine ilişkin kodların irdelenmesi çalışmanın temel amacını oluşturmaktadır. Analiz sonucunda oyunun, hegemonik erkeklik kodlarını barındıran ve etkileşime oldukça izin veren yapısıyla oyuncuların kendini kaptırma ve oyunla özdeşleşmesinde etkili olabilecek bir içerik olduğu ortaya konmuştur. Oyun içerisindeki söylemler ve göstergeler, toplumsal, kültürel ve tarihsel koşulların ürünüdür ve hegemonik erkekliğin yeniden üretildiği çok etkili bir toplumsal inşa aracı olarak değerlendirilebilir

Özçekim, modern bir otoportre şeklidir. Özçekimle ilgili benliğin sunumu; narsisizm, eğlence, sosyal etkileşim, lüks tüketim, cinsiyet, özsaygı, tüketim kültürü, sosyal medya bağımlılığı ve kimlik oluşumuyla ilgili disiplinlerarası araştırmalar bulunmaktadır. Bu araştırmanın amacı, teknolojik belirlenimci yaklaşımı benimseyerek dijital yerlilerin ve dijital göçmenlerin sosyal medyada özçekim paylaşım tutumlarını incelemektir. Gerçekleştirilen bu çalışmanın, veri toplama yöntemi anket tekniği olarak belirlenmiştir. Balakrishnan ve Griffiths (2018) tarafından geliştirilen ölçek kullanılmıştır. Araştırma evrenini, sosyal medyada en az bir defa özçekim paylaşımı yapmış olan 1980 öncesi ve 1980 sonrası doğumlu sosyal medya kullanıcıları oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmanın örneklemi, amaçlı örneklem tekniğiyle belirlenmiş ve sosyal medyada özçekim paylaşımı yapan 429’u dijital yerli, 423’ü dijital göçmen kategorisinde, toplamda 852 katılımcıdan meydan gelmektedir. Katılımcılara çevrimiçi anket yöntemiyle ulaşılmıştır. Araştırmayla dijital yerlilerin çevre geliştirmek, sosyal rekabeti arttırmak, ilgi görmek, ruh halini değiştirmek, özgüvenini arttırmak ve kendisini bir gruba ait hissedebilmek için dijital göçmenlere kıyasla daha yoğun bir şekilde sosyal medyada özçekim paylaşımları yaptıkları sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

Toplumun etkileşim sağladığı ve yaşananlardan haberdar olduğu kitle iletişim araçları, teknolojik yeniliklere bağlı olarak gelişme göstermektedir. İletişim teknolojilerinin gelişmesi ile haber verisinin elde edilmesi, haberin üretimi ve dağıtımı değişmiştir. 2000’li yıllardan itibaren internet ve diğer dijital teknolojilerin habercilik alanında kullanılmaya başlamasıyla yeni habercilik pratikleri ortaya çıkmıştır. Teknoloji odaklı habercilik pratiklerinin incelenmesi, haberciliğin mevcut ve gelecekteki durumuna dair tespitler yapmada önem taşımaktadır. Bu bağlamda, çalışmada teknoloji odaklı habercilik pratiklerinin ele alınması amaçlanmakta ve bu habercilik türlerinin uygulanma biçimleri aktarılmaktadır. Alanyazın taraması yöntemi ile ele alınan bu çalışmada drone, veri, mobil, podcast, robot habercilik ile sanal gerçeklik, sosyal medya gibi teknoloji odaklı habercilik türleri incelenmektedir. Çalışma neticesinde, teknolojinin haberciliğe getirdiği yeni pratiklerin hız, kolaylık, estetik ve maliyet avantajı ile birlikte, demokratik topluma katkı sunan bir yapıda olduğu saptanmaktadır. Bu özelliklerinin yanı sıra habercilik pratiklerinin güvenlik, etik gibi konularda sorunlara yol açabilecek durumları da barındırdığı gözlenmektedir

çalışma kapitalizmin “dışlama biçimleri” üzerinden toplumsal hiyerarşiyi kurduğunu ve asimetrik güç ilişkileriyle kendini sürdürdüğünü Türkiye’nin 1970’li yıllarında toplumsal sınıfların gündelik yaşamını konu edinerek ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır. Dil dolayımı ile maddileşen bir söylem pratiği üzerinden siyasal ve ekonomik koşulların ne derece gündelik hayatı belirlediği sorunsalı araştırma sürecinin esas noktasıdır. Zeki Ökten tarafından yönetilen ve Umur Bugay tarafından yazılan 1976 yapımı Kapıcılar Kralı filmi konu ve amaç ekseninde araştırmanın inceleme nesnesidir. Zamansal ve mekânsal tutarlılık arz etmesi ve Türkiye’nin 1970’li yıllarına ilişkin bağlam bilgisini içermesi açısından araştırmanın sorunsalına dair cevaplar aranmaktadır. Çalışmada ilk olarak günümüz perspektifinden Türkiye’nin 1970’li yıllarının incelenebildiği bir metin olarak gündelik hayat ve sinema arasındaki bağ kurulmaktadır. Ardından kapitalizmin tüketim ve meta unsurlarının sınıf üzerinden Türkiye özelinde tarihsel durumu açıklanmaktadır. Son olarak bireyin arzu boşluğunun giderilmesinin veya giderilememesinin üretim ve tüketim sürecindeki yerini belirdiği; dışlama biçimlerinin dil dolayımıyla maddileşerek sınıfsal konumları sabitlediği ortaya koyulmaktadır. Araştırmanın temel bulguları arasında döneme ilişkin olarak kamusal ve özel alana göre imgeleri barındıran tüketim unsurları yer almaktadır. Bu bulgular arasında ideolojik konumu işaret eden gazeteler, toplumsal statüyü gösteren kıyafetler, ekonomik gelir durumuna göre ulaşılabilir olan ev içi gıda ürünleri, içkiler, sigaralar yer almaktadır. Araştırma süreci nihayetinde çalışmada, tespit edilen bulguların toplumsal sınıflara göre dağılım gösterdiği ve her bir tüketim nesnesinin Türkiye’nin 1970’li yıllarındaki siyasi ve ekonomik konjonktüründen etkilendiği sonucuna ulaşılmaktadır. Bireylerin toplumsal sınıfına göre aralarındaki kaçınılmaz (apartman) ilişkileri hiyerarşik ve asimetrik güç ilişkileriyle donatıldığı sınanmaktadır.

Günümüz pazarlama konseptleri arasında önemli bir yere sahip olan Lovemark kavramı; gizem, duyusallık ve samimiyeti harekete geçirebilme olarak ifade edilmektedir. Tüketicinin markaya yönelik dikkatini, ilgisini, arzusunu ve isteğini satın alma davranışına dönüştürmesi Lovemark olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Markaların, Lovemark oluşum sürecinde tüketicilerin sevgisini, saygısını, ilgisini ve güvenini kazanarak marka imajını ve markaya olan tüketici bağlılığını artırmaları önem arz etmektedir. Bu doğrultuda çalışmanın amacı; Lovemark oluşum sürecinde marka imajı ve marka bağlılığı arasındaki ilişkiyi Z nesli özelinde incelemektir. Araştırma kapsamında Z neslinin tamamına ulaşmak zaman kısıtı ve örnekleme ulaşım zorluğu nedeniyle mümkün olmadığı için araştırma olasılığa dayalı olmayan örnekleme türlerinden amaçlı örnekleme yöntemi kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmada, Lovemark oluşum sürecinde marka imajı ve marka bağlılığı ölçekleri Starbucks markası üzerinden kurgulanmıştır. Araştırma, online olarak gerçekleştirilmiş olup araştırmaya katılan n=310 katılımcıya ait veriler üzerinden değişkenler arasındaki ilişkiler test edilmiş ve belirlenen araştırma sorularına cevap aranmıştır. Verilerin analizinde istatistiksel paket programı kullanılarak, betimleyici istatistikler, t-testi ve korelasyon analizi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre Lovemark oluşum sürecinde marka imajı ve marka bağlılığı gözlenen değişkenlerinin tanımlayıcı istatistikleri incelendiğinde, katılımcıların ilgili markayı başarılı, güçlü, canlı vb. bulurken, marka bağlılığı gözlenen değişkenlerinin ortalamalarının düşük olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Öte yandan marka imajı alt boyutlarından samimiyet (r=689; p=,000) ve yeterlilik/coşku (r=,355; p=,000) değişkenleri ile marka bağlılığı arasında anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu belirlenmiştir. T-testi sonuçları incelendiğinde ise cinsiyet değişkenine göre marka imajı ve marka bağlılığı gözlenen değişkenlerine yönelik grup ortalamalarının kadınların lehine olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
