Published: September 2024

The preservation of the local culture of the Osing Banyuwangi tribe cannot be separated from the role of women, especially mothers, in transmitting cultural values through cultural literacy which is applied to the next generation. Apart from the role played by mothers, there is also the role of cultural studies which manage cultural literacy. One of them in Banyuwangi Regency is Sapu Jagad Studio located in Kemiren village which manages cultural literacy to maintain the local culture of the Osing tribe. Therefore, this research aims to analyze how to manage Osing ethnic cultural literacy for women and children in preserving local culture. The approach applied in conducting this research is a case study with qualitative methods. Data sources were obtained by applying data collection techniques in the form of interviews, observation, and documentation to studio managers, groups of women, and children involved in the Sapu Jagad studio. The analysis technique used is the Miles & Huberman model which is carried out through 3 stages, namely collection, reduction, presentation, and concluding the data that has been obtained. The results obtained from this research are the management process of the Sapu Jagad studio through the management stages of institutional management, the learning process, and the impact obtained from managing cultural literacy for women to preserving the local culture of the Osing tribe in Banyuwangi.
An Analytical Overview of Futuristic Strategies in the Practice of Interdisciplinary Architecture Education
Authors: Çakmak Bilgehan Yılmaz , Erdoğan Tuba Özdemir , Burkut Emine Banu
Published: September 2024

Architectural education is a universal discipline that requires an artistic, technical, and holistic perspective. It is a field of science and art that focuses on problem-solving and spatial creativity. As in all fields of science and art, the boundaries and scope of the field of architecture cannot be drawn. Its structure is so broad that it cannot be limited to a single discipline, and at the same time, it is flexible enough to make room for itself in every discipline. In this respect, even the concept of interdisciplinary is insufficient to coincide with the discipline of architecture as it describes a certain cross-section, and it becomes important what the disciplines that include architecture are and what the sentences of architecture can be in areas other than known disciplines. The headings that can be addressed separately are defined under the title "interdisciplinary," and the concept continues to exist as an unexamined area in the flexible and variable structure of architecture without being deepened enough. What is important is to define well which discipline influences to what extent and to define that all interdisciplinary subjects are areas that serve the main purpose of problem-solving and spatial creativity, to preserve the core balance of architecture without getting lost in the vast universe. The study aims to make an analytical look at architectural education, which is the environment where the concept of interdisciplinary in architectural practice is given and the boundaries are first taught. In this way, new expansions and questions are expected to arise in architectural education. From an analytical perspective, the issue of balancing architectural education and industry will be discussed using the PESTEL analysis method, which is a method used in strategic planning and especially in the field of business administration.

Published: September 2024

In this study, we compare institutional and foster care. The method chosen is a secondary analysis of statistical data. In the study, we seek to answer the question of how the number of places, the number of children, the age composition of children, the duration of placement and the type of placement vary in Hungary and in the Northern Great Plain region.  We analyse data for the years 2014, 2021 and 2023 in terms of deinstitutionalisation and present the current situation of child protection care alongside the trends in institutional restructuring in recent years. A further aim of our comparative analysis is to review the number of cases of runaways from care in recent years, assuming that they occur less frequently in foster care. For the analysis, we have primarily used data for the years 2014, 2021 and 2023. In some places, the year 2020 was analysed due to data availability.  We have used publicly available data series from the KSH, as well as data recorded on the basis of individual data requests according to the KSH OSAP Form 1208, which contains data provided by child protection centres based in the respective counties.

Published: September 2024

Imidacloprid, one of the neonicotinoid pesticides, is widely used in various types of farmlands globally, causing negative effects on beneficial insects. The stink bug Eocanthecona furcellata (Wolff) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) is an effective generalist predator that provides natural control of Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, and other insect pests. Walking behavior is crucial for these predators; however, the effects of imidacloprid on their walking, and thus searching, behavior remain unknown. We measured walking behavior by using a locomotion compensator to assess the effects of imidacloprid. Acute exposure to imidacloprid significantly reduced the mean walking speed of nymphs (30.6–51.9% depending on instar), adult females (52.0%), and adult males (40.5%). Walking time also was reduced by exposure to imidacloprid in nymphs (27.1–40.5%), adult females (48.2%), and adult males (36.0%), whereas walking distance was reduced in nymphs (8.4–19.8%), adult females (25.2%), and adult males (15.0%). These results reveal that imidacloprid impairs the walking behavior of stink bugs, emphasizing the need to consider the negative effects of neonicotinoid pesticides on the pest control efficacy of natural enemy insects.
CSR committees and their effect on green practices
Authors: Vuong Ngoc
Published: September 2024

This paper explores the relationship between the presence of corporate social responsibility (CSR) committees and the implementation of corporate green practices. Using data from 445 non-financial Japanese firms from 2010 to 2021, we find a positive impact of such sustainability committees on both integrated and three individual aspects of green initiatives, including internal pollution prevention, green supply chain management, and green product innovation. In addition, our evidence demonstrates a variation in the CSR committees—green practices nexus across diverse groups of firms, based on their exposures to environmental risks. Finally, we claim that CSR-linked compensation and CSR strategy can explain how CSR committees affect firms’ eco-friendly practices. Generally, our study confirms the crucial role of a governance mechanism—CSR committees—that business organisations and policymakers can exploit to promote sustainable behaviours.
Contradições entre os objetivos do Fundeb e da austeridade fiscal: o caso de Curitiba-PR (2017-2019)
Authors: Silva Marcus Quintanilha da
Published: September 2024

O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar as contradições entre os objetivos do Fundo de Manutenção e Desenvolvimento da Educação Básica e de Valorização dos Profissionais da Educação (Fundeb) e a adoção da política de austeridade fiscal no município de Curitiba entre 2017 e 2019. Apoiada analiticamente em uma abordagem qualitativa a partir de um estudo de caso, a revisão de literatura consistiu em compreender aspectos relacionados à austeridade fiscal, a dinâmica, os objetivos e um balanço sobre os resultados nacionais do Fundeb durante sua vigência. A compreensão das contradições entre os objetivos propostos do Fundeb e os efeitos das políticas de austeridade adotadas na administração municipal analisada utilizou como base as informações de execução orçamentária e de financiamento da educação provenientes do Sistema de Informações sobre Orçamentos Públicos em Educação, do Tribunal de Contas do Estado do Paraná e do portal da transparência do município analisado. Os resultados evidenciaram que os efeitos de contrações fiscais para as políticas educacionais, a redução de recursos e a deflação do poder de compra da classe trabalhadora se contrapõem aos objetivos da política de redistribuição de recursos supracitada, especialmente no que tange à valorização da remuneração dos profissionais do magistério.

Authors: Sousa Ana Paula Ribeiro de , Coimbra Leonardo José Pinho
Published: September 2024

Pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, de caráter exploratório, sobre o Documento Curricular do Território Maranhense: ensino médio (DCTM/EM), elaborado como decorrência da Lei 13.415/2017, a lei da reforma no ensino médio. Pretende-se analisar o referido documento problematizando a sua convergência com os fundamentos da reforma do ensino médio em geral. Esta análise se apoia no aporte teórico da Teoria Crítica da Sociedade e do Materialismo-histórico dialético. Destacam-se como aspectos nucleares da proposta curricular o caráter flexível da formação, a fragmentação do currículo, a formação de competências e habilidades e o “protagonismo” do estudante visando a formação de indivíduos empreendedores e socialmente responsáveis, com foco na gestão do seu próprio projeto de vida. Conclui-se que o escopo da formação empreendido pela reforma do ensino médio se coaduna ao processo de semiformação dos  indivíduos de forma cada vez mais subordinada à materialidade alienada.

Authors: Daigle Alaina
Published: September 2024

Background and Purpose:Evaluation of professionalism in nursing has proven challenging as no objective measurement tool exists. The purpose of this study was to develop and test the Professionalism in Nursing Scale (PNS) for reliability and validity, which will facilitate evaluation of the constructs of professionalism in nursing. Participants were senior nursing students and registered nurses with at least a baccalaureate degree and a minimum of 3 years of experience working either in academia at an accredited university or in a practice setting in a Magnet hospital.Methods:Methodological research was used to design an instrument that measures professionalism in nursing. Phase 1 included item development, scaling, and evaluation of the content validity index, using 10 content experts. Phase 2 included pilot and field testing using participants meeting the inclusion criteria. Questionnaires were sent electronically to evaluate the relevance of each attribute of professionalism using a Likert scale. Phase 3 was scale evaluation, including reliability and validity of the PNS.Results:Final results of exploratory factor analysis supported a 33-item five-factor model. The factors were named Ethics and Interprofessional Collaboration, Excellence, Professional Engagement, Caring, and Self-Awareness. The overall reliability rate of the PNS was 0.97. Findings demonstrated the reliability and validity of the PNS for measuring professionalism in academic and clinician nurses and nursing students.Conclusions:Measuring professionalism in nursing can assist driving improvement of patient care, accountability, and team collaboration. A discussion of the PNS within the context of academia and clinical practice, along with implications for research, practice, education, and policy will be presented.

Although prior studies have explored the barriers that transgender and nonbinary (TNB) adolescents experience in receiving gender-affirming medical care (GAMC), few have sought to understand how these barriers may differ among racial and ethnic minority groups. Accordingly, this study used data from a survey of TNB young adults (ages 18–20 years) to explore how barriers to GAMC during adolescence varied by race and ethnicity. Differences in the impact of 11 potential barriers when comparing the members of each racial and ethnic group with those who did not identify with that racial or ethnic group were evaluated usingttests. The results showed that Indigenous respondents indicated that parental unwillingness to consent for GAMC and attend a clinic visit and not being able to find a clinic contributed significantly more compared with those who did not identify as Indigenous. Black respondents indicated that not knowing it was possible to receive GAMC during adolescence and previous negative experiences in healthcare related to race or ethnicity contributed significantly more to their inability to receive GAMC during adolescence compared with those who did not identify as Black. Latine respondents indicated that parental unwillingness to consent for GAMC and attend a clinic visit, worries about cost, and previous negative experiences in healthcare due to race or ethnicity contributed significantly more compared with those who did not identify as Latine. Overall, the results suggest disproportionate barriers in access to GAMC during adolescence among Indigenous, Black, and Latine TNB individuals and illustrate a need for additional resources and interventions to promote more equitable access.
Predicting the Tendency to Re-Experience Abusive Relationships Based on Schema Modes and Self-Compassion: A Web-Based Cross-Sectional Study
Authors: Shafiei Rezvani Nejad Kosar , Mirpour Zinat sadat
Published: September 2024

Finding an intimate partner is an important step in adulthood that has a special effect on self-concept and mental health. The tendency to re-experience abusive relationships (TREAR) refers to a person’s inclination to repeatedly find themselves in abusive or unhealthy relationships. There are many factors for the TREAR. This study aimed to predict TREAR based on schema modes and self-compassion. The present study design was predictive correlational, with the statistical population consisting of adults over 18 who have experienced emotional relationships in Rasht, Iran. Finally, 190 participants entered the study. Due to COVID-19 quarantine circumstances, we used an internet-based convenience sampling method through the social media groups of students at Rasht’s universities. Participants completed the tendency to re-experience abusive relationships scale, schema modes, and self-compassion. Most of the participants were between age 23 and 32 years (44.2%) and female (81.6%). According to the findings, self-compassion was greatly associated with a lower TREAR. In contrast, the schema modes were significantly associated with a higher score of the TREAR (p< .05). The coefficient of determination (R2) was equal to 0.506, indicating that 50.6% of the change in re-experiencing abusive relationships was explained by demographic characteristics, schema modes, and self-compassion. The results showed that both schema modes and self-compassion were predictors of continuing the abusive relationship cycle. These findings could have important implications for future research, especially on the prevention and treatment of individuals involved in abusive relationships.
Se faire plaisir pour préserver son bien être au travail
Authors: Essiyedali Abdellah
Published: September 2024

Le monde de l’entreprise est un monde assez complexe. Plusieurs facteurs entrent en jeux et rendent le travail comme une source de souffrance et de mal-être. Ceci est visible au niveau des plaintes et protestations quotidiennes des travailleurs à l’égard de leur hiérarchie, leurs collègues voire à l’égard même de leur activité professionnelle. Un ressenti négatif s’accumule et alimente l’usure psychologique. Il s’agit de risques au travail qui sont en rapport étroit avec le fonctionnement de l’organisation appelés risques psychosociaux (RPS). Certes, l’entreprise a une responsabilité morale et juridique pour préserver le bien-être de ses salariés mais des manquements et des négligences font partie de la réalité même de ce monde professionnel. Nous nous sommes intéressés lors de cette étude à vérifier le rapport qui pourrait exister entre le fait qu’un salarié se fasse plaisir grâce à la pratique régulière d’une activité physique et sportive et sa perception et son adaptation aux situations de stress professionnel. Cette étude a concerné 149 managers. La méthodologie choisie fait appel à deux types d’études. Une étude exploratoire qualitative et une étude confirmatoire quantitative. Les résultats obtenus confirment l’apport bénéfique d’une pratique physique régulière sur le niveau de perception du stress professionnel et la nature même des stratégies de coping ce qui alimente par conséquent un état de bien-être au travail positif.
 
The business world is a complex one. Several factors come into play to make work a source of suffering and malaise. This can be seen in the daily complaints and protests from workers towards their superiors, their colleagues and even towards their professional activity itself. Negative feelings accumulate and fuel psychological wear and tear. These are workplace risks that are closely linked to the way the organisation functions, known as psychosocial risks (PSR). Of course, companies have a moral and legal responsibility to safeguard the well-being of their employees, but failings and negligence are part and parcel of the very reality of this professional world. In this study, we were interested in verifying the relationship that might exist between the fact that an employee takes pleasure in regular physical activity and sport and his or her perception of and adaptation to situations of work-related stress. The study involved 149 managers. The methodology used involved two types of study. A qualitative exploratory study and a quantitative confirmatory study. The results confirm the beneficial impact of regular physical exercise on the perception of work-related stress and the very nature of coping strategies, which in turn contributes to a positive state of well-being at work.

Introduction : La désarticulation de la hanche est un geste mutilant avec un impact psychologique non négligeable. Observation : nous rapportons le cas d’un élève de 19 ans admis pour une gangrène mixte secondaire à un traitement traditionnel chez qui une désarticulation de la hanche a été réalisée. La désarticulation est  souvent réalisée en chirurgie cancérologique lors des tumeurs siégeant à la partie proximale du fémur. En traumatologie, elle reste le dernier recours lorsque le pronostic vital du patient est engagé. Cet acte pose souvent un problème de couverture cutanée dans notre contexte lié à l’absence de banque de lambeau de jambe. La cicatrisation dirigée associée à une greffe de peau mince fait partie de l’arsenal thérapeutique en l’absence des lambeaux libres. Conclusion : L’éducation des tradipraticiens sur les limites de leur pratique et la sensibilisation de la population sur les complications liées au traitement traditionnel demeurent les meilleurs moyens.
Introduction: Hip disarticulation is a mutilating procedure with a significant psychological impact. Observation: we report the case of a 19-year-old student admitted for mixed gangrene secondary to traditional treatment in whom hip disarticulation was performed. Disarticulation is often performed in cancer surgery for tumors located in the proximal part of the femur. In traumatology, it remains the last resort when the patient's vital prognosis is in jeopardy. This procedure often poses a problem of skin coverage in our context linked to the absence of a leg flap bank. Directed healing associated with a thin skin graft is part of the therapeutic armamentarium in the absence of free flaps. Conclusion: Educating traditional practitioners on the limits of their practice and raising public awareness of the complications linked to traditional treatment remain the best means.
The key role of the most recent EU regulation – the “Digital Operational Resilence Act” in the legal system, contemporary challenges, and Georgian perspectives
Authors: Ositashvili Magda
Published: September 2024

The challenges of the modern world, such as globalization, digitalization, and other technological advances, have exposed all fields of science, including economics and law, to severe trials. The bold and visionary attempt of legislative bodies in various countries, to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of existing regulations and consider new ones was complemented by the development of methods and mechanisms to oversee, regulate, and incorporate the latest technological advancements into the legal framework. After ineffective efforts to deal with various objections, the European Union adopted a new regulation called the "Digital Operational Resilience Act." This regulation aims to address the challenges presented by the increasing cybersecurity threats, operational resilience, and digitalization in the financial sector, both ex-ante and ex-post. In this paper, you will learn about the role of “DORA” in the legal system, the economic analysis of the law, the challenges it faces in the European Union, and the perspectives of the Georgian reality. This paper will employ qualitative and theoretical research methods, focusing on the in-depth analysis of existing legal frameworks and expert perspectives. These methods will allow for a comprehensive understanding of DORA's implications in both the European Union and the Georgian context, offering valuable insights into its potential effectiveness and challenges.
Genetic Variability, Heritability, Genetic Advance, Path Coefficient Analysis, and Inter-Character Relationships in Colocynth (Citrullus colocynthis [L.] Schrad.) from Southeastern Villages of the Benin Republic
Authors: Zanklan A. Seraphin
Published: September 2024

Genetic improvement of crops for important traits requires reliable estimates of genetic variability. heritability and genetic advance of intending parent materials to identify traits useful in planning an efficient breeding program through selection. Hence, the effectiveness of genetic improvement of a crop depends on the variability in the morpho-agronomic traits of individual genotypes. Understanding the variation that exists will allow the breeder to determine strategies to be adopted in his breeding program. The objectives of the present study were to estimate the magnitude of genetic variability and advance, heritability and inter-character relationships by simple correlations and path coefficient analysis in 40 local colocynth genotypes from Southeastern Benin. The experiment was carried out in a randomized complete block design with three replications in three locations for three years. 34 morpho-agronomic traits were observed in each genotype. Analysis of variance revealed that effects of genotype, genotype by year or location and genotype by year by location interactions were significant (p ≤ 0.01 or 0.05) for all the characters. Phenotypic coefficients of variation (PCV) values were relatively greater than genotypic coefficients of variation (GCV) for all traits. High magnitude of phenotypic and genotypic coefficients of variation as well as high heritability along with high genetic advance were recorded particularly for qualitative traits. All yield components, except time to emergence, time to tailspins, leaf limb width, fruit number per plant, fruit width, seed length, seed tegument percentage and stem pubescence texture, had significant and positive correlations with yield attributes represented by thousand-seed weight (TSW) and seed number per plant (SNP). Path coefficient analysis indicated that all the characters (except leaf pubescence texture, stem pubescence texture, fruit design produced by secondary skin color and male flower size) had positive direct effects on TSW and partly SNP. Results suggested that most of the 34 quantitative and qualitative traits studied could be effectively used as selection criteria in the breeding program of Citrullus colocynthis varieties with high yield.

DIRECT GAZE OF THE ACTOR TOWARDS THE CAMERA IN CINEMA IN THE CONTEXT OF IDENTIFICATION AND ALIENATION: A DISCUSSION ON THE FILMS “THE BRAND NEW TESTAMENT” (2015) AND “FUNNY GAMES” (1997)
Authors: Yeğin Mustafa Oğuz
Published: September 2024

From its earliest days to the present, film language has evolved within various contexts, undergoing transformations and bringing forth diverse cinematic narrative possibilities in different forms and content. These narrative options predominantly exist within the classical Aristotelian structure, but with the adaptation of the Brechtian structure to cinema, they have also taken on different and alternative directions. This shift has resulted in various changes across screenplay, cinematography, acting, and other areas. The central issue of this study is built upon these differences, with a particular focus on the gaze in cinema. The primary aim is to analyze classical and contemporary narrative structures in the context of actors' direct gazes at the camera, interpreting the distinctions through Jaco Van Dormael's "The Brand New Testament" (2015) and Michael Haneke's "Funny Games" (1997). The study intends to address how actors' direct gazes in these two distinct films differ between classical and contemporary narrative structures, examining them under the lenses of identification and alienation respectively. In this context, the study concentrates on how these gazes differentiate within both narrative structures across the selected films.

NEW CINEPHILIA TASTE: A STUDY ON ACADEMICS’ TASTE IN THE CASE OF NETFLIX TÜRKİYE AND MUBI TÜRKİYE
Authors: Şahin Murat
Published: September 2024

This study examines the views of cinema academics, which can be called ‘new cinephiles’ and ‘masters of symbolic taste,’ on MUBI and Netflix streaming platforms. In the theoretical part of the study, the boundaries of taste are first emphasized in cultural consumption. Then, the views on the formation of boundaries formed by the consumption of cultural products were emphasized. Categorical boundaries play an important role in cultural consumption, dividing art as popular or elite and individuals as high or low culture. Bourdieu’s cultural capital theory emphasizes how individuals with high cultural capital create class distinctions. Previous studies have shown that upper-middle-class individuals or ‘cultural omnivores’ tend to appreciate high and popular culture. With the emergence of digital platforms, these boundaries are being reconsidered. Research suggests that algorithmic recommendation systems on these platforms shape users’ tastes and potentially reinforce existing social and cultural divisions. This study used qualitative research methods and a phenomenological design to investigate the impact of viewing preferences and digital platforms on class divisions. The findings reveal that while these platforms increase access to a wide range of content, they reinforce class-based viewing practices. Characteristics of new cinephiles: Participants show a deep attachment to films and use various digital devices to watch them, suggesting a nuanced interplay between technology, cultural consumption, and social stratification.

Müzakereci demokrasinin kavramsallaştırılmasına ilişkin Carolyn Hendriks; gayri resmi alanın (makro) aktörleri ile resmi alanın (mikro) aktörlerinin bütünleşerek daha geniş söylemsel alanları (karma) oluşturduğuna yönelik entegre/bütünleşik bir sistem öne sürmüştür. Ağ toplumunda dijital ortamların bu söylemsel alanları oluşturduğu varsayımına dayanarak, Habermas’ın Söylem Etiğinden hareketle Steenbergen ve ark.’nın müzakereci demokrasinin iletişimsel ilkeleri çalışmanın temelini oluşturmaktadır. Bu çerçevede çalışmada, dijital teknolojilerle dönüşüme uğrayan kamusal alanların ve beraberinde entegre/bütünleşik müzakereci sistemin normatif koşullarının, müzakereci demokrasinin iletişimsel ilkeleri açısından nasıl bir görünüm arz ettiğinin ortaya konulması amaçlanmıştır. Bu amacın ortaya konulması ve küresel müzakere kavramını karşılaması açısından durum örneklemesiyle Change.org üzerinden “Kudüs Filistin’in Başkentidir ve Öyle Kalmalı” kampanyası analiz edilmiştir. Kampanyada Türkçe, İngilizce, Fransızca, İspanyolca ve Arapça dillerinde yapılan paylaşımlar ekseninde inceleme gerçekleştirilmiştir. Sonuçlar platformun; dünyanın dört bir yanından insanları bir araya getirme noktasında evrensellik ilkesini karşıladığını ve eş zamansız iletişime dayalı yapısının yüksek oranda gerekçelendirme ilkesini sağladığını göstermiştir. Ancak gerekçe düzey ve içeriklerinde niteliksel verilerin azlığı sonucu olumsuz etkilemiş ve gerekçelerin söylemsel eşitlik ve saygı ilkelerini tam olarak karşılayamadığı görülmüştür. En nihayetinde, vatandaşların dijital ortamlarda güncel kamusal sorunları tartıştığı ancak entegre/bütünleşik müzakerenin iletişimsel ilkelerini sınırlı biçimde karşılayabildiği sonucuna varılmıştır.

Bu çalışma, hizmet kalitesi beklentisinin müşteri sadakati üzerine etkisinin araştırılması amacıyla yapılmıştır. Çalışmamanın evrenini Iğdır ili otel müşterilerinden oluşmaktadır. Anket yöntemine dayalı olarak yapılan çalışmada 147 otel müşterisinden toplana veriler, SPSS istatistiki analiz programıyla frekans, farklılık, normal dağılım, güvenirlik ve korelasyon analizleri, Amos programı ile doğrulayıcı faktör analizi ve yol analizler yapılmıştır. Çalışmanın modeline bağlı kalınarak oluşturulan ipotezler korelasyon ve yol analizleri ile test edilmiştir. Yapılan hipotez analizler sonucunda, müşteri sadakati üzerinde hizmet kalitesin genel boyutu ile alt boyutları olan somutluluk, güvenirlilik, isteklilik ve empatinin etkisi olduğu güvence boyutunun etkisi olmadığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Çalışmada ayrıca eğitim durumu ile hizmet kalite beklentisi ve alt boyutları arasında, yaş ile hizmet kalitesi beklentisi ve alt boyutları olan güvenirlik, heveslilik ve güvence arasında, otele gelme sayısı ile müşteri sadakati arasında ve otele tekrar gelme niyeti ile hizmet kalitesi beklentisi ve empati alt boyut haricindeki tüm alt boyutlar arasında ve müşteri sadakati arasında anlamlı farklıklar olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Çalışmada müşterilerin hizmet kalite beklenti düzeyleri %91,8, müşteri sadakat düzeyleri %75,6 olarak tespit edilmiştir.

Tüketim, modern toplumlarda sadece ekonomik bir faaliyet olarak değil, aynı zamanda bireylerin kimliklerini ve statülerini inşa ettikleri ve bunları ifade ettikleri bir alan olarak görülmektedir. Gezegenin her yerine yayılan ve akın eden tüketimci piyasanın hâkimi markalar, sahip oldukları güç ile toplumda ya da uluslararası sistemde egemen olmasını istediği değerleri çeşitli kurumlar ve aydınlar üzerinden aktararak kendilerine bağımlı kesimlerin zihinsel ve yapısal sınırları üzerinde tahakküm kurmaya çalışmaktadır. Elbette kapitalist üretim/dağıtım sisteminin yerinde durmak bilmeyen faaliyetlerini devam ettiren markalar için asıl amaç, kitlelerin gönüllü (rıza) olarak kendilerine itaat etmesini sağlayabilmek, mevcut kurulu düzene karşı isyanları en aza indirebilmek ve olası rakipleri bertaraf edebilmektir. Gerçekleştirilen nitel araştırmada, tüketim kültürünün inşasında markaların hegemonyası incelenmiş ve “tüketim kültürünün inşasında markaların hegemonyasını nasıl sağladığının ve markaların, tüketimi reklamlarda nasıl inşa ettiğinin ortaya koyulması amaçlanmaktadır. Bu amaç etrafında araştırma evrenini “Effie Awards” reklamları oluştururken araştırmanın örneklemini ise 2023 yılı “Effie Awards Türkiye”de farklı kategorilerde ödüle değer bulunan reklam filmleri oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmada markaların hegemonyalarını sağlarken güç unsuru içerisinde yer alan kültür ve bilgiyi ve rakip unsurlar içerisinde yer alan eşsizliği önemli ölçüde kullandığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Ayrıca markaların reklamlarda tüketim kültürünü, tüketimin sembolik boyutu, mutluluk-haz, çekicilik, kolaylık ve tarz temalarıyla inşa etme noktasında önemli bir rol oynadığı tespit edilmiştir.

Türkiye'de son yıllarda deizm olgusunun artışı, toplumda dini ve sosyolojik yapıları önemli ölçüde etkilemektedir. Bu durum, medyanın din algısını nasıl etkilediğini ve şekillendirdiğini sorgulamamızı gerekli kılıyor. Bu araştırma, yazılı medya söylemlerini inceleyerek medyanın deizm algısını ve genel olarak din algısını nasıl etkilediğini ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır. Deizm olgusu, toplumda gittikçe daha fazla yer edinmektedir. Bu durum, dini ve toplumsal yapıları derinden etkilemektedir. Araştırma, yazılı medya söylemlerini inceleyerek medyanın deizm algısını ve genel din algısını nasıl etkilediğini ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır Çalışma, nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden doküman incelemesi kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yazılı medya kaynaklarından toplanan makaleler, haberler ve köşe yazıları analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular, medyanın deizmi genellikle olumsuz bir çerçevede sunduğunu göstermektedir. Deizm ve deistler hakkında toplumda daha fazla bilgi ve farkındalık oluşturulması gerekmektedir. Medyanın deizm algısını ve genel din algısını nasıl etkilediğini anlamak, laiklik ilkesinin yorumlanması ve uygulanmasıyla ilgili tartışmalara katkıda bulunabilir. Medya, deizm hakkında doğru ve tarafsız bilgiler sunmalı ve bu konuda daha fazla tartışma ve diyalog ortamı oluşturmalıdır.

Roman ve tiyatro sinema tarihinin her döneminde yapımcı ve yönetmenlerin yararlandığı kaynaklar olmuştur. Birçok tiyatro oyunu ve edebi eser, sinemaya uyarlanmıştır. Türk sineması da ilk yıllarından itibaren bu aktarım yöntemini kullanmıştır. Orijinal metinden sinemaya uyarlanan filmlerin yanı sıra, uyarlama bir filmin de uyarlaması yapılabilir. Uyarlama filmler, zaten hazır olan senaryo, karakter, mekân, müzik ve diğer biçemsel unsurlar sayesinde uyarlama yapmak isteyen yönetmenler için bir şablon gibidir. Yapılan tek şey, kaynak filmdeki konunun tamamen veya kısmen alınması, karakterlerin, çevrenin, diyalogların ve müziğin Türkçeleştirilmesinden ibarettir. İçinden çıktığı topluma ait kültürel bir ürün olan filmlerin uyarlama yoluyla bir başka kültüre aktarılmasında değişen toplumsal ve kültürel farklılıkları ortaya koymayı amaçlayan bu çalışmada Oscar, Altın Küre, BAFTA gibi uluslararası film yarışmalarında ödül alan Some Like It Hot/Bazıları Sıcak Sever (1959) ile filmin Yeşilçam uyarlaması olan Fıstık Gibi Maşallah (1964) filmlerine odaklanılmıştır. Filmler, içerik analizi yöntemi ile incelenmiştir. İnceleme sonucunda her iki filmde ortaklaşan ve ayrışan noktalar tespit edilmiştir. Fıstık Gibi Maşallah, kaynak film ile aynı konuya, temaya, olay örgüsüne ve karakterizasyona sahiptir. Karakter isimleri, müzikler ve mekanların ise değiştirildiği görülmektedir. Film, bir uyarlama yöntemi olan Türkçeleştirme işlemine uğramıştır.

Background: The inclusion of neural networks in the work of healthcare institutions and medical education is an urgent problem in bioethics – a discipline that develops issues of personal choice between benefit and harm, between good and evil, between the volume and quality of information processing. The introduction of neural networks into the practice of healing is inevitable and is "the most commonly used analytical tool". The pros and cons of digitalization of medicine are described in detail in the literature, such as acquiring a digital assistant for diagnosis, determining optimal treatment plans and monitoring the health status of patients. Aim: to consid-er the possibility of improving clinical thinking in partnership with neural networks using the example of analyzing clinical situations.Materials and methods: An analytical review of the literature on the problem of integrating artificial intelligence into medical practice was carried out. The empirical base is represented by materials from qualitative sociological research (case study method). Results: Based on the analysis of cases, it is shown that the guidelines for writing out recipes for correcting errors are spelled out abstractly (the neural network is irresponsible, human intelligence must exceed the intelligence of the machine) and concretely (the initial answer of the neural network to the question posed is superficial and requires clarification using questions unexpected for the neural network spe-cific configuration of terms not recognized by artificial intelligence as keywords). The risks of introducing artificial intelligence into the work of medical institutions have been identified: on the one hand, with a high degree of compliance of doctors to the recommenda-tions of neural networks, the doctor is responsible for their errors, and the patient suffers, on the other hand, with a high degree of com-pliance of AI to user requests, training neural networks in dialogues is dangerous multiplication of dubious recommendations from un-differentiated/incompetent users. The doctor’s competence in dialogues training the neural network is invisible, unverified, and essen-tially virtual. Conclusion: Based on the conducted research, the possibility of improving neural networks through their adaptation to regional paradigms of healing, to value systems that are based on the archetypes of domestic healthcare is shown.
