Published: December 2022

Tuberculosis is a world-wide disease, the chest affliction (pulmonary tuberculosis) being the commonest. Over 14 million persons are estimated to presently suffer from acute tuberculosis. Poverty apart, ignorance about origin, spread and prevention is a major factor in the large scale prevalence of the disease. It was therefore decided to assess the impact of health education among sputum-positive pulmonary tuberculosis patients and their caregivers on all aspects and also to evaluate their knowledge on day of allocation of treatment. Using a structured questionnaire with multiple choices regarding signs & symptoms, causes, transmission of tuberculosis, availability of treatment etc. on 56 patients and 62 care-givers. The study concludes that direct and indirect methods of health education significantly enhance the awareness about the nature, spread and prevention of tuberculosis.

Published: December 2022

Osmanlı İmparatorluğu tarihte benzeri çok az görülen ihtişamlı bir devlet yapılanmasıdır. Bu yapılanmanın siyasî ve askerî anlamda en görkemli dönemi hiç şüphesiz XVI. asırdır. Siyasî anlamda “altın çağ” olarak nitelendirilen bu dönemde; edebî hayatta da İslâm medeniyeti dairesine girilmesiyle doğal bir şekilde dâhil olunan kültürel yapının getirileri XVI. asırda sindirilmiş, acemilikler geride bırakılmıştır. Bir önceki asırda Arap ve Fars edebiyatının usta şairlerine gıptayla bakan Osmanlı şairi bu asırda eserlerine, doğulu örnekleriyle mukayese edecek kadar güvenmektedir. Adlarını tarihin sayfalarına altın harflerle yazdıran Hayâlî, Bâkî, Zâtî, Fuzûlî gibi usta şairlerin yanı sıra yazdığı “Heşt Behişt” isimli tezkiresiyle şöhret bulan Sehî Bey de XVI. asrın önemli simalarındandır. XV. asrın büyük şairlerinden Necâtî Bey’in yanında yetişen Sehî Bey’in divanında ustasının etkisini görmek mümkündür. Gündelik hayattan manzaralar, dönemin eğlence kültürü, atasözleri-deyimler, yerel halk söyleyişleri açısından zengin bir malzemeye sahip olan divan, dönemin kültür tarihi açısından da önemli bir kaynaktır. Bu çalışmada Sehî Bey Divanı sosyal hayatta önemli bir yere sahip olan âdetler ve inançlar bakımından incelenip değerlendirilmektedir.
Reşat Nuri’nin “Recm” Adlı Hikâyesinde Zihniyet Çatışması
Authors: KEKEÇ İsmail
Published: December 2022

Daha geriden başlatmak mümkün olmakla birlikte Osmanlı’daki modernleşme çabalarının ve girişimlerinin milat noktası on dokuzuncu asrın ilk yarısı olarak görülür. Gerek bu dönemde gerçekleştirilen Tanzimat ve Islahat hareketleri gerekse devamında ilan edilen Birinci ve İkinci Meşrutiyet, çağı yakalamada atılan önemli adımlar olarak öne çıkar. Yürürlüğe konulan bu hamlelerin etkileri idari ve siyasi alanlarla sınırlı kalmaz. Topluma da yayılması hedeflenir. Ancak doğası gereği toplumlar yenilikleri hemen benimsemez, direnç gösterirler. Bu direnç de beraberinde çatışmaları ortaya çıkarır. Yerleşik ve kökleşen değer yargıları ile çağdaş ve filizlenmeye çalışan değer yargılarının karşılaşması ise bir tür zihniyet çatışmasını doğurur. Bu zihniyet çatışmasının türlü görünümlerine yer veren eserlerin ve bunları işleyen yazarların ise özellikle İkinci Meşrutiyet döneminde arttığı fark edilecektir. Cumhuriyetimizin siyasi laboratuvarı olarak nitelendirilen bu dönemde edebiyat dünyasına adım atan Reşat Nuri’nin kaleme aldığı “Recm” hikâyesi de bir zihniyet çatışması etrafında kurgulanmıştır. 1919’da yayımlanan ve Reşat Nuri’nin ilk hikâye kitabı olan Recm, Gençlik ve Güzellik’te yer alan bu hikâyesinde genç ve idealist bir mektep hocasının hazin akıbeti ele alınır. Taassup ve cehaletin yol açabileceği trajik durumları işaret eden hikâyede Elmacık köyü ahalisi ile köylerine gelen genç bir İstanbullu öğretmenin değer yargıları ve yaşamı yorumlayış tarzları arasındaki karşıtlık vurgulanır. Cumhuriyet dönemi Türk edebiyatının da temel izleklerinden birini oluşturacak bu karşıtlık ve zihniyet çatışmasının öncüllerinden biri olan Recm hikayesinin çözümlenmesi çalışmanın temel amacıdır.
Três poemas da série versos avulsos
Authors: Casella Cesar Augusto de Oliveira
Published: December 2022

Os três poemas apresentados fazem parte de uma série de poemas, intitulada Versos Avulsos, escritos originalmente na década de 1990. Eles se caracterizam, tematicamente, pela busca da abordagem de uma única fração da percepção possível do mundo, como se o assunto tratado estivesse avulso, fosse banal, destacado de um todo inapreensível. Formalmente, os poemas procuram se estruturar em um ritmo melódico a partir de certas rimas, algo avulsas ou assistemáticas. Para integrar a estrutura dos versos e os temas tratados em uma dimensão espacial, os poemas se espalham pela página e a ocupam, como uns poemas volantes.
A performance na música e além da música
Authors: Gomes Juliana Araújo , Teixeira William
Published: December 2022

Este artigo se trata de uma análise - que busca extrapolar o universo musical - da canção Pedra Preta, de autoria da banda Teto Preto, grupo de música eletrônica que tem como fundadora e frontgirl a multiartista Laura Diaz. A análise foi realizada a partir de diversas entrevistas, em vídeo ou escritas, que Laura Diaz concedeu no ano de 2019 e através de seis vieses interpretativos distintos: letra; melodia e harmonia; vocais; percussão e ritmo; instrumentos, sonorização e ambiência; videoclipe. Nos vieses musicais, parâmetros analíticos tradicionais foram utilizados, mas não de forma desintegrada ao que realmente importa no caso da canção em questão: o contexto simbólico. Ao final da análise, algumas questões merecem destaque: a canção possui fortes influências da MPB que abrangem desde a harmonia até mesmo a voz de Laura Diaz; a canção é construída a partir de sonoridades numa lógica de camadas, onde um elemento sozinho, na maioria das vezes, perde seu sentido; a banda Teto Preto e, portanto, suas canções, são recheadas de significados. Sendo assim, não é possível compreender integralmente a proposta multiartística da banda sem ter a compreensão prévia de algumas coisas, como suas origens e pautas. Por fim, concluímos que a análise de canções como Pedra Preta exige um olhar transdisciplinar. que não exclui o aspecto musical, mas o elabora sistematicamente, já que a música é a coluna de sustentação de todos os outros pilares estruturais da canção em seu processo de significação.

Published: December 2022

Este artigo apresenta reflexões acerca da relação entre literatura e teatro inclusivo, por entendermos que além do potencial artístico e criador, o teatro é um recurso valioso para a expressão de sentimentos, ideias, bem como para promover o respeito às opiniões e à diversidade. Para a organização e execução da peça que teve como objetivo promover a inclusão cultural e dar visibilidade a questões linguísticas e culturais das pessoas surdas contamos com a participação de acadêmicos da Universidade Federal da Fronteira Sul- UFFS, campus de Realeza, PR, que compõem o grupo de teatro ‘Turma da Inventação”. A obra Marcelo, Marmelo, Martelo (2011) de Ruth Rocha serviu de inspiração para a peça de teatro. Neste estudo, temos como substrato teórico, autores como -Roland Barthes (1987, 2004); Haroldo de Campos (2006); Augusto Boal (1988); Maria Lucia Pupo (1991,1997); Karin Strobel (2008). A metodologia empregada foi a pesquisa-ação, por meio de oficinas de dramaturgia e reuniões de estudo acerca da expressão da arte pelo teatro e a relação com a cultura surda, incluiu-se também o ensino aprendizagem da Libras aos atores. O projeto de teatro inclusivo desenvolvido, possibilitou aos acadêmicos, a experiência com o texto cênico, como forma de expressão de sentimentos e discussão sobre conflitos do próprio contexto e contribuiu para a sensibilização da comunidade acadêmica e da comunidade externa para temas caros como a acessibilidade cultural.

Políticas e planejamento oficiais de manutenção da ideologia linguística colonial do déficit
Authors: Lima Hildomar José de , Rezende Tânia Ferreira
Published: December 2022

O Português Brasileiro é uma construção linguística na/da diversidade na interação, como qualquer língua, exceto aquelas cujos povos ainda se encontram isolados. Apesar disso, os estudos sobre políticas de contato linguístico empregam como ferramenta de análise, principalmente, as interferências entre as línguas, em geral, apontadoras de déficit. Uma dessas ferramentas é a noção ideológica da interlíngua, base do entendimento do que sejam as línguas crioulas, por exemplo. Como um pressuposto, a interlíngua tem sido empregada no ensino de línguas em situação de contato assimétrico entre línguas, desde a colonização do Brasil. Com a presente discussão, propomos uma reflexão crítica sobre os impactos da concepção teórica de interlíngua nas análises linguísticas das práticas escritas expressas em português pelas pessoas surdas na manutenção da ideologia colonial do déficit, por força das políticas e dos planejamentos linguísticos oficiais monolíngues homogeneizadores. No que se refere ao processo de aquisição/aprendizagem do português escrito pela pessoa surda, a língua emergente, denominada neste texto como interportuguês do(a) surdo(a), é considerada deficitária, uma vez que a interferência da libras no português distancia o sistema interlinguístico emergente do modelo de língua determinado para todos(as). Ideologicamente, a concepção de interportuguês sustenta a colonialidade da linguagem por meio da concepção de “erros”, discursivamente suavizada com eufemismos como “omissão”, “inadequação”, “falha”, “desvios”, “trocas” etc., mantida nas práticas de ensino, gerando violências epistêmicas. Da perspectiva da Sociolinguística Decolonial, consideramos urgente a necessidade de problematizar concepções linguísticas que sustentam violências epistêmicas por meio do ensino, especialmente em contextos de línguas e povos historicamente subalternizados.
Acessibilidade Linguística a estudantes indígenas da rede pública de ensino do Distrito Federal (Brasil): igualdade, equidade e competências interculturais
Authors: Gomes Dioney Moreira
Published: December 2022

O presente artigo trata da necessidade de promover acessibilidade linguística para estudantes indígenas nas escolas públicas do Distrito Federal (Brasília, Brasil). O DF registra cerca de 500 estudantes indígenas. O português não é a língua materna de boa parte desses estudantes, o que impacta em seu aprendizado específico e global, uma vez que essa é a língua usada pelos professores, direção, coordenação e pela quase totalidade dos alunos. O material didático também é quase todo em português. Além disso, há ainda aulas e materiais em inglês e em espanhol, duas outras línguas obrigatórias nas escolas do DF. A acessibilidade linguística pretendida dar-se-á no âmbito de produção de materiais didático-pedagógicos e metodologias de ensino-aprendizagem de línguas a serem usados por estudantes indígenas em escolas públicas do DF. O ponto de partida é o Centro Educacional Gisno, que acolherá os pesquisadores envolvidos durante o desenvolvimento da pesquisa e será o locus de projetos-piloto, passíveis de expansão para as demais escolas públicas da Secretaria de Estado de Educação do Distrito Federal (SEEDF), com vistas ao fomento de políticas públicas para os estudantes indígenas. O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar o contexto da pesquisa e sua justificativa, seus objetivos, o quadro teórico, o percurso metodológico inicial, os resultados iniciais, e a relevância e o impacto da pesquisa para o desenvolvimento científico, tecnológico ou de inovação.
Informed consent process: challenges in clinical practice
Authors: Chahal Aksh
Published: December 2022

The concept of informed consent dates back to nearly a century ago. It was instituted with the aim to safeguard a patient from unreasonable intrusion and abuse to their body integrity and to enrich patients with the ability of own choice for selecting the type of treatment as per their will. In other words, any action by a clinician, either for trial or practice purposes, involving an intrusion inside the patient’s body has to be conducted only after the approval of the patient (if conscious) or acceptance from family members, relatives, or friends of the patient (if unconscious). Application of informed consent prior to any procedure follows its implementation called ‘informed consent process’. In the present review article, the author focused on the challenge encountered by clinicians while implementing an informed consent process. Various databases were searched from inception to August 2020. Only English language articles were searched, with the following keywords: "Informed consent", "Informed consent process", and "Consent form", linked with Boolean words "AND", "OR", and "NOT". Informed consent process implementation should overcome various setbacks which have been experienced by clinicians working in government and private hospitals, nursing homes, clinics, old age homes, etc. These challenges were discussed in this review under various headings for proper identification, justifying the cause and measures to minimize their impacts.
Response of erectile dysfunction to extracorporeal shock wave therapy in type 2 diabetic men
Authors: Ali Ismail Ali Mohamed , Shaaban Abd El-Azeim Alshaymaa
Published: December 2022

Introduction

Erectile dysfunction is a major complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aimed to investigate the effect of active vs. sham low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave therapy (Li-ESWT) on erectile dysfunction in T2DM men.

Methods

Overall, 40 married T2DM men aged 40–50 years with erectile dysfunction were assigned to the study and the control group. Besides a 12-week daily administration of a 5-mg tablet of phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor (PDE5I) tadalafil in both groups, the control group (n = 20) received sham Li-ESWT, while the study group (n = 20) received 2 active Li-ESWT (on the penile shaft with 1800 pulses and intensity of 0.09 mJ/mm2) sessions weekly for 3 consecutive weeks; then, the procedure was repeated for another 3 consecutive weeks, with a 3-week rest between the 2 procedures. Erectile dysfunction was assessed by the 5-item version of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5). Baseline, 1-month follow-up, 3-month follow-up, and 6-month follow-up IIEF-5 scores were documented.

Results

After 1- and 3-month follow-up, there was a significant difference between the active and sham groups in favour of the active Li-ESWT group (p-value of 0.0001 and 0.01, respectively), but there was no significant difference between the groups at 6-month follow-up.

Conclusions

Li-ESWT can increase the long-term efficacy of PDE5I in T2DM men with erectile dysfunction.
THE UNIVERSITY’S ROLE AS AN INTERMEDIARY FOR EDUCATION FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT: THE CASE OF KONDO RAKYAT
Authors: Ariffin Nur Fatehah Raudhah , Mohamad Zeeda Fatimah
Published: December 2022

This paper discusses an effort carried out by the University of Malaya (UM) to engage with, facilitate and nurture sustainable development efforts in a neighbouring community. The Kondo Rakyat community in Pantai Dalam, Kuala Lumpur is five minutes away from the UM campus. It is a low-income urban community living in DBKL low-cost flats nestled within an upper middle-income neighbourhood of high-rise condominiums. Efforts were made to launch sustainability initiatives such as composting, the production of eco-enzymes, kitchen gardens and green bazaars with the hope that the community will be able to share the skills learnt and experience gained with other similar communities elsewhere. This paper will show that one of the most vital criteria in an effort such as this is the ability of the project leader to facilitate discussions between disparate collaborators so as to guide the project to some success.
CAMPUS SUSTAINABILITY: THE NEED FOR CHANGE
Authors: Hassan Norizah , Muhamad Noor Muhamad Faisal
Published: December 2022

Studies done on campus sustainability have received increased attention in recent years. According to Mostafa Nejati and Mehran Nejati (2012), â€œGiven the growing global interest on the universityâ€™s role towards promoting sustainability, an increasing number of universities are committing themselves to sustainability.â€ However despite numerous efforts on campus sustainability initiatives, a whole sustainable campus is yet to be achieved. Findings from current research in the local context show that most students are aware about sustainability efforts and activities on campus but there is a gap between their awareness and action with regard to sustainability. A case study was done at University of Malaya (UM) to find the correlation between these two factors. A survey questionnaires and an interview were conducted in order to investigate the relationship between the studentsâ€™ awareness and engagement. This study acknowledged the role of student as change agent. However this responsibility should not be shouldered by the students alone. In order to lead the change, there need to be a team effort from both the students and the university.Â  As suggested by Dunne and Zandstra (2011), there is a need to not only look at the studentsâ€™ action but also to listen to the studentâ€™s voice towards achieving campus sustainability. This paper aims to not only see the actions taken by the students but also take into consideration the limitations they faced. Students can only do so much, but in the end success and change can only be achieved through a synergy approach. Based on the findings of the study, this paper attempts to come up with a proposal on what actions could be taken by the university to empower the students to lead the change for a sustainable campus and a better future.Â

Authors: B. Balingasa Maria Lara , M. Salazar Artemio
Published: December 2022

A plant breederâ€™s success in executing any breeding program depends greatly in the presence and amount of genetic variation including the genetic repeatability of the traits of interest. Fifteen white maize populations available at the Institute of Plant Breeding (IPB), University of the Philippines Los BaÃ±os (UPLB) were grown and evaluated at the Central Mindanao University (CMU) and UPLB on July and December 2011 respectively, to assess the genetic repeatability and the estimates of genetic coefficient. Different maize characters such as yield, days to anthesis , days to silking, plant and ear height, stand count, number of ears, ear length, ear diameter and shelling percentage were studied. The results revealed that in terms of repeatability, yield (31%), plant height (34.88), ear height (41.84%), and shelling percentage (35.54%) obtained moderate values while the rest of the traits indicated low values. Estimates of phenotypic coefficient of variation (PCV) exhibited moderate values for yield, stand count and number of ears while low values were indicated by all of the traits for genotypic coefficient of variation (GCV). Low magnitude of GCV as well as moderate genetic repeatability for the traits being investigated suggests that these parameters were under the control of environmental effects.Â

Published: December 2022

Campus Organization Advisers play a vital role in the success of any student organizations. They are considered as motivational factors as they lead their organizations into the right track of student leadership. They can even break or make the whole performance of the student organization. In the Philippines, there is no existing relevant guidelines, many Campus Organization Advisers from different HEIs are confused on how they will do their role as Campus Student Organization Advisers. This study will help Campus Organization Advisers to be more effective and efficient by producing institutionalized principles and guidelines that are acceptable to the majority to the HEIs. In addition, the study will primarily focus on helping the Campus Organization Advisers understand their roles and responsibilities by coming up with suitable guidelines about Campus Advising. It targets majority of the Campus Advisers from the National Capital Region, from private and public universities and colleges. Still, some of the Campus Organization Advisers from different provinces will be the major respondents in order to have a comparative perspective on the set--up of Campus Advising in NCR and from provinces. Furthermore, this study will present different challenges and concerns facing all Campus Advisers in performing their responsibilities. Campus Advisers are confused on how they will perform their responsibilities as Advisers. It is also good to note that in the Philippines, private and public HEIs have different set--up in regards with Campus Organization Advising. While there are challenges, this study will also present the best practices on Campus Advising from different private and public HEIs in the National Capital Region and nearby provinces. To have a sustainable guidelines, it also best to benchmark from different national organizations focusing on developing the skills of Campus Organization Advisers. It plays an important role in having a different perspective about the major focus of the study. This action research will gather data based from the interview to some of the Student Leaders, Campus Organization Advisers, Student Affairs Practitioners and even the administrators from private and public universities and colleges in NCR and nearby provinces to know how Campus Organization Advisers failed or become productive and successful.

Published: December 2022

This paper investigated the photocatalytic degradation of Chloramphenicol using hydroxyapatite derived from eggshells via microwave--assisted synthesis. The photocatalytic degradation of Chloramphenicol was conducted under different parameters such as varying irradiation time for catalyst (10, 20 and 30 minutes), catalyst loading (0.4, 0.6 and 0.8 mg), and time exposure (0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 hours). Chicken and duck eggshells are composed of calcium carbonate that is synthesized into hydroxyapatite by mixing with diammonium phosphate, (NH4)2HPO4, under microwave irradiation. Characterizations confirmed that the properties of the synthesized product are in line with the properties that is generally known as HA, in accordance to the data of characterizing the said catalyst presented from other studies. Also, the comparison of the different parameters of photocatalytic degradation showed the use of initial pollutant concentration of 25 mg/L with a catalyst loading of 0.8 mg HA with irradiation time 20 minutes in microwave under UV lights for 2.5 hours gave the most promising result, giving a percent degradation of Chloramphenicol approximately 80.92%. Overall, this study provided insight on the possible use of a waste material, particularly eggshells, as a source of HA and possibly, a greener way of handling wastewater.

Lately, many young entrepreneurs have ventured into this kind of business and the competition is becoming tight. Furthermore, fashion trends are changing from time to time and the rise of RTWs has become a threat to the second-hand industry as RTWs are much more affordable compared to before. In connection, most of today's clothing is made of polyester or acrylic, both plastic forms and consumers are already consuming resources at an alarming rate. Using second-hand garments can avoid the overall process of making new clothes that can benefit the environment. In the wake of the new trade environment, second hand clothing markets emerged, adding new local jobs and making it easier for the population to afford quality clothing. Hence, it is imperative to focus on the variables that influence the buying of second-hand clothing since it is part of the growing businesses and has been proven to generate profit in the country. This study employs quantitative research design and utilized mean, t-test and statistical treatments. The researchers conducted a convenience sampling for 150 customers of second-hand clothing from different stores in Digos City. Results revealed that most of the customers that patronized second-hand clothes are female with the income bracket of ₱ 5,000- ₱ 10,000 and mostly in their early thirties. The difference in the level of customer preferences for second-hand clothing does not differ when it comes to age and monthly income except to sex which shows to have a difference. The relative importance between age and the attributes of customer preference in buying second-hand clothing measured by the following factors: brand, price, risk, and location have a low correlation. The study further recommended that second-hand stores should take significant consideration when it comes to different types of consumers and when choosing their store locations.

Hollanda ve Çağdaş İslam Araştırmaları: NISIS (Hollanda Üniversitelerarası İslam Araştırmaları Okulu)
Authors: Kayalık Murat
Published: December 2022

Bu çalışmada Hollanda’da, İslam Araştırmaları alanında son yirmi küsur yılda üretilmiş olan akademik müktesebat ele alınmıştır. Makalede Hollanda’da İslam Araştırmaları alanında faaliyet gösteren Netherlands Interuniversity School for Islamic Studies (Hollanda Üniversitelerarası İslam Araştırmaları Okulu) kurumu incelenmiştir. İslam ve Müslüman toplumlar hakkında araştırma yapan ve eğitim veren NISIS, 2010'da Hollanda’nın bu alandaki resmi ulusal araştırma okulu olarak kurulmuştur. NISIS, İslam araştırmaları alanına ciddi katkılar sunan dokuz üniversiteyi fakülteleri, doktora ve yüksek lisans öğrencileri ile birlikte bir araya getiren akademik bir platform olup bu yönüyle Hollanda akademik geleneği tarihinde (ve aslında bütün Avrupa’da) eşi benzeri olmayan bir iş birliğini temsil etmektedir. Araştırma okuluna ilk olarak her biri bir yönetim kurulu üyesi tarafından temsil edilen sekiz üniversite katıldı: Rotterdam Erasmus Üniversitesi, Leiden Üniversitesi, Radboud Üniversitesi, Tilburg Üniversitesi, Amsterdam Üniversitesi, Groningen Üniversitesi, Utrecht Üniversitesi ve VU Amsterdam Üniversitesi. Ortaklığa 2013 yılında Maastricht Üniversitesi’nin de katılmasıyla İslam Araştırmaları alanında akademik araştırma yapan ve/veya eğitim veren bütün Hollanda üniversiteleri bu akademik yapılanmaya katılmış oldu. NISIS, İslam ve Müslüman toplumlar hakkında araştırma yapan Hollanda ve Belçika’daki doktora ve yüksek lisans öğrencilerine: mevsimsel okullar, ağ günleri ve diğer eğitim faaliyetleri gibi imkânlar sunmaktadır. Uluslararası faaliyet alanını genişletmek amacıyla dünyadaki akademik kurumlarla mevcut bağlarını güçlendirmek için gayret eden NISIS, özellikle Endonezya, Fas ve Türkiye’ye odaklanmaktadır. Benelüks (Belçika, Hollanda ve Lüksemburg) bölgesinin İslam Araştırmaları ve Müslüman topluluklar hakkında araştırma yapan ve eğitim veren önemli kurumlardan birine dönüşen NISIS, Hollanda sınırlarını başarılı bir şekilde aşıp Belçika’dan KU Leuven ve Ghent Üniversitesi, Almanya’dan ise Ruhr Üniversitesi Bochum Ortadoğu ve İslam Araştırmaları Bölümü ile ortaklık kurdu. Uluslararası Çağdaş Dünyada İslam Araştırması Enstitüsü (ISIM) ve daha sonra NISIS, ‘’Hollanda’nın gerçek manada dengeli, çok kültürlü bir toplum geliştirebilmesi için buna katkıda bulunan kültürler ve toplumlar hakkında bilgi sahibi olmak elzemdir’’ düşüncesinden hareketle kurulmuştur. Çalışmamızda NISIS öncesi teşkilatlanma çabaları; sosyal bilimler ve beşerî bilimler açısından Müslüman dünyasında büyük toplumsal, siyasi ve kültürel öneme sahip çağdaş gelişmelerle ilgili daha fazla araştırma yapma ihtiyacına yanıt olarak kurulan ISIM, faaliyetleri ve yayınları etraflıca ele alınmıştır. Ayrıca NISIS’in kuruluşu, kuruluş amacı, hedefleri, eğitim programı, mevsimsel okulları, İslam Araştırmaları ağ günleri, diğer eğitim faaliyetleri, disiplinler arasılık prensibi, diğer kurumlar ile ilişkileri, Hollanda toplumunun çeşitli kesimlerine ulaşma çabası ve araştırma alanları ortaya konulmuştur.

Leader-member exchange and unethical pro-organizational behavior
Authors: Koçak Daimi
Published: December 2022

Purpose: In this study, drawing on social learning theory, a moderated mediation model was tested. This model examines organizational identification as the mediator and employee unethical tolerance as the moderator in relationships between leader-member exchange (LMX) and unethical pro-organizational behaviors (UPB). Methodology: The research sample is comprised of 432 full-time employees of a private company operating in the service sector in Turkey. Results: Consistent with the theoretical model, analysis results indicate that organizational identification mediated a positive relationship between LMX and UPB. Furthermore, results supported the moderated mediation model and showed that an indirect effect of LMX on UPB through organizational identification is stronger when EUT is high rather than low. Conclusion: This study contributes to LMX and UBP literature by integrating research on organizational identification and employee unethical tolerance.
