Article Lessons in Business Recovery Following the 2023 Kahramanmaraş Earthquake Sequence, Türkiye Informed by Women Entrepreneurs(Sage Publications inc, 2025) Wein, Anne M.; Kroll, Cynthia A.; Fung, Juan F.; Orhan, EzgiOn 6 February 2023, Southern Türkiye was hit by devastating earthquakes, directly affecting over 14 million people in 11 cities, causing more than 50,000 deaths and the destruction of more than 800,000 buildings. This article goes beyond the physical damage imposed by the catastrophe to discuss the effects of the earthquakes on the operations of women-owned businesses. The mixed-method study with entrepreneurs belonging to a women's business association operating in a moderately disrupted part of the region explores their struggles and recovery expectations. Thirty-five questionnaires were analyzed to identify the reasons for business closure, challenges, and needs faced in the post-disaster period and their recovery strategies. In addition, 23 entrepreneurs participated in roundtable discussions to provide a broader context to their responses to survey topics as well as lessons learned. Across both the survey and roundtables, while many respondents reported minor physical damage to their building, they also experienced financial and personal challenges from disruption to equipment, infrastructure, services, supply chains, institutional decisions, employee well-being, and customer base. Many used their business resources and personal savings to assist employees and others in the community. The women entrepreneurs often felt their recovery needs were ignored by government and private relief organizations and encountered barriers to receiving assistance from public and private institutions. Organizing together as women in business, even informally, provided mutual support during the crisis and recovery periods and catalyzed their role in support of their communities. The results illuminate functional community recovery as a balance of recovery of built infrastructure functionality and recovery of the broader social and economic fabric of the community.Article Citation - Scopus: 1Timbre of the Place: a Deleuzoguattarian Inquiry To Assemble Music and Place(Sage Publications inc, 2025) Golgelioglu, Can; Ataov, AnliThis study explores the potentials of affects and music in terms of Deleuzoguattarian assemblage thinking. It adopts music as an emancipatory medium to comprehend the post-representative emergences and the togetherness of affective relationalities in place experiences. The study presents an experiential inquiry of composing the musical pieces of two contrasting places and deciphering the spatial stimuli of two contrasting musical pieces. The findings suggest that music, with its rich relational and affective qualities, can significantly contribute to the understanding of places as it transcends the traditional representational mediums, allowing for a deeper appreciation of urban environments' complexities and self-organizing nature.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 9Data Mining Applications in Risk Research: a Systematic Literature Review(Sage Publications inc, 2025) Sicakyuz, Cigdem; Edalatpanah, Seyyed Ahmad; Pamucar, Dragan; Sicakyuez, CigdemDespite the rising literature on data mining (DM) approaches, there is a lack of a complete literature review and categorization system within risk research. This paper presents the first recognized academic literature review on the application of data mining tools in risk research provides an up-to-date SCOPUS literature database. Based on bibliometric analysis, 5422 papers related torisk were identified from a total of 77,410 studies on data mining and thoroughly analyzed. Each of the selected 5422 papers was classified into four risk categories: global risk, public health risk, molecular and biomedical risk, and pharmaceutical risk. Each primary risk category was further subdivided to highlight the specific research focuses within each domain. Global risks encompass business, environmental, and social risks. Scholars have predominantly focused on the banking, market, and construction sectors within business risk, while environmental risk includes catastrophe-related risks. Social risks encompass areas such as education, traffic safety, and transportation concerns. Clinical data is usually employed in public health risk research, while various radiomic databases are utilized in genetic and molecular biology research. In pharmaceutical research, DM is primarily used to detect adverse drug effects. According to the findings of this review, the fields of computer science and medicine received the most significant research attention. The review also discusses limitations and provides a roadmap to guide future research, aiming to enhance knowledge development related to the application of data mining techniques in risk-related studies.Article Relationships of Transformational and Paternalistic Leadership Styles With Follower Needs, Multidimensional Work Motivations and Organizational Commitment: a Mediated Model(Sage Publications inc, 2024) Civit, Selinay; Goncu-Kose, AsliPaternalistic Leadership (PL) style is suggested to be an emic manifestation of Transformational Leadership (TL) in cultural contexts characterized by high power distance and collectivism. The present study investigated the effects of TL and PL behaviors on employees' multidimensional work motivation and organizational commitment and the mediating effects of satisfaction of psychological needs (needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness) in these relationships. Data were collected from 423 white-collar employees and analyzed by Structural Equation Modeling. The findings revealed that TL was significantly related to employees' autonomous and controlled work motivations as well as amotivation via its association with the satisfaction of employees' needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness. PL was associated with employees' autonomous work motivations and amotivation via satisfaction of employees' need for relatedness. Autonomous motivations were positively associated with affective commitment; whereas controlled motivations were positively related to normative commitment. Amotivation was negatively associated with all types of commitment. The findings are discussed in terms of theoretical and practical implications as well as suggestions for future research.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Psychotherapeutic Interventions Used in Psychological Treatment Studies With Syrian Refugees: a Systematic Review(Sage Publications inc, 2024) Yilmaz, Tugba; Karakus, CansuThe ongoing conflicts in the Middle East have led to a substantial influx of Syrian refugees, exposing them to severe traumatic experiences and contributing to a range of mental health issues. This systematic review examines psychotherapeutic interventions employed in psychological treatment studies with Syrian refugees, focusing on 22 articles identified across Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, and ScienceDirect. The review highlights the need for psychotherapeutic intervention for Syrian refugees due to the high prevalence of post-traumatic stress, depression, anxiety, grief, and loss which results from an increased risk of various forms of violence and exploitation. Psychotherapeutic interventions in the reviewed studies were Problem Management Plus (PM+), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), eye movement, desensitization and reprocessing therapy (EMDR), narrative therapy, dance and movement therapy, art therapy, psychosocial interventions, and online psychotherapy. In the studies conducted with young and child refugees, various psychotherapeutic interventions such as cognitive-behavioral skills therapy, EMDR group therapy, art, dance and movement therapy, and early adolescence skills for emotions were applied. In studies conducted with adult refugees, it is noteworthy that studies frequently applied the PM+ intervention. It is seen that PM+ was applied especially in the camp environment at the beginning of the refugee process. In most of the studies, group format and face-to-face psychotherapeutic intervention were preferred. The findings emphasize the importance of tailored interventions that account for the cultural backgrounds and experiences of Syrian refugees. By addressing these barriers and implementing culturally sensitive approaches, mental health professionals can better support the psychological recovery and integration of Syrian refugees in host countries.Article Citation - Scopus: 5Fused Filament Fabrication in Cad Education: a Closed-Loop Approach(Sage Publications inc, 2025) Totuk, Onat Halis; Selvi, Ozguen; Akar, SametIntegrating low-cost fused filament fabrication 3D printing as a foundation for learning 3D modelling is explored. This method blends traditional computer aided design (CAD) instruction with additive manufacturing possibilities. Experimental results demonstrate increased comprehension speed and reduced learning time. This hands-on approach empowers students by enabling direct engagement with the modelling process. Analogous to reverse engineering, the strategy instructs engineering students from final product to model creation, closing the gap between theory and practice. Incorporating 3D printing bridges this divide, enhancing understanding, creativity and problem-solving. The study underscores technology's influence on learning strategies, aligning with the surge of 3D printing in education. Results link advanced design technology usage to improved student performance, with 3D-printed materials yielding 45% higher grades and 30% faster task completion. This study advocates curricular advancement for design-focused careers through enhanced technology integration and favourable 3D printing model reception.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7Locus of Control as a Mediator of the Relationships Between Motivational Systems and Trait Anxiety(Sage Publications inc, 2024) Turan, Aysu; Demir, Yagmur; Kaynak, HandeThe Reinforcement Sensitivity Theory, first proposed by Gray and later revised, describes three motivational systems: Behavioral Inhibition System (BIS), Behavioral Activation System (BAS), and Fight-Flight-Freeze System (FFFS). Studies have shown that high BIS and FFFS activation are positively related to anxiety symptoms, yet the relationship between BAS and anxiety remains unclear. Research data have also suggested that anxiety symptoms occur with the loss of perceived control. Thus, although studies on the direct effect of locus of control (LOC) on trait anxiety have accumulated for many years, the issue of how LOC may mediate the relationship between BIS/BAS/FFFS sensitivity and anxiety has not been addressed. This study aimed to explore the mediating role of LOC orientation on trait anxiety among young adults in association with these three motivational systems. Cross-sectional data were obtained from 422 volunteers. The BIS/BAS Scale, Trait Anxiety Inventory, and Rotter's Internal-External LOC Scale were applied. A series of mediation analyses were performed to estimate total, indirect, and direct effects. The results showed that BIS and FFFS positively predicted trait anxiety. In addition, LOC positively predicted trait anxiety and BIS. The results of the mediation analyses indicated that LOC functioned as a partial mediator between BIS and trait anxiety. This finding revealed that a high BIS level, one of the motivational systems, was associated with external LOC, which in turn contributed to reporting high trait anxiety in young adults. Hence, BIS and external LOC orientation could be suggested as risk factors for trait anxiety. As the external LOC orientation of individuals with high punishment sensitivity increased, their trait anxiety levels also increased. Therefore, it was suggested that it might be useful to be aware that LOC orientations of individuals with BIS sensitivity may pose a risk for trait anxiety.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3A Feminist Reading of Turkish Foreign Policy and the S-400 Crisis(Sage Publications inc, 2021) Akca Atac, C.Hypermasculine hegemonic masculinities have become the norm to dominate the foreign policies all around the world. As the populist foreign-policy visions, the byproducts of androcentric norm-creation, undermine the established rules for peace, diplomacy and co-existence in the international system, other experiences have faded away from the narratives that have defined and contributed to foreign policies. The accelerating urgency of the national security agendas of the hypermasculine states seek to cancel feminist definitions, practices and theories for the sake of physical force and state control. Nevertheless, more than any other period in history, it is these conflicting times that necessitate Cynthia Enloe's 'curious feminist' questions the most. Turkish foreign policy of the last decade has become a quintessential example of hypermasculine hegemonic masculinity, especially within the context of the S-400 crisis with the US, NATO and Russia; its feminist critics are distressingly rare. This paper aims to offer an alternative reading of Turkey's S-400 saga from a feminist perspective to contribute a Turkish case to feminist International Relations. First a definition of feminist International Relations will be provided. Then, the hypermasculine character of the Turkish hegemonic masculinity and its reflection on the current Turkish foreign policy will be analyzed. Lastly, the S-400 crisis of Turkey's decision to buy Russian defense missiles as a NATO member will be examined.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 9Factors Influencing Children's Appraisals of Interparental Conflict: the Role of Parent-Child Relationship Quality(Sage Publications inc, 2020) Selcuk, S. Ule; Isanoglu, Zulal; Sayil, Melike; Sumer, Nebi; Berument, Sibel Kazak; İşcanoğlu, ZülalThe cognitive contextual model proposes that children's appraisals of interparental conflict (IPC) can influence their adjustment. In addition, previous research revealed that interparental disputes may reflect on parent-child relationship that is linked with children's self-blame and threat appraisals concerning IPC. However, there is a scarcity of research directly addressing the intervening role of the parent-child relationship on children's appraisals of IPC. Thus, we investigated the mediating role of different aspects of the parent-child relationship (i.e., psychological control, warmth, and attachment security) in the link between IPC and self-blame and threat appraisals. Participants were 1,309 children, their mothers, and their fathers. SEM analyses indicated that higher IPC was related to higher parental psychological control and lower child attachment security, which in turn was associated with higher self-blame or threat appraisals. The pattern of relationships was similar across child and parent gender.Article Citation - WoS: 23Citation - Scopus: 23Effect of Anchorage Number and Cfrp Strips Length on Behavior of Strengthened Glulam Timber Beam for Flexural Loading(Sage Publications inc, 2021) Isleyen, Ummu Karagoz; Ghoroubi, Rahim; Mercimek, Omer; Anil, Ozgur; Togay, Abdullah; Erdem, R. TugrulLaminated wooden beams are more preferred in the production of wooden structures than solid timber beams because they have a higher load-carrying capacity and allow larger openings to be used in the structure. The widespread use of wooden structures and the increasing size of the structures have revealed the need for strengthened laminated wooden beams and increase their ultimate load capacity. It has become necessary to develop reinforcement details to increase the ultimate load capacity of laminated wooden beams in wooden railroads or highway bridge beams, where the traffic load increases, especially in large wooden structures, in cases where large openings must be passed. Within the horizon of the study, the behavior and performance of three-layer glulam wooden beams strengthened with anchorage and non-anchorage CFRP strips with different bonding length under flexural loading were investigated experimentally. The three-point bending test was applied to glulam timber beam test specimens produced by laminating yellow pine wood material using the polyurethane adhesive. General load-displacement behaviors, ultimate load capacity, initial stiffness, displacement ductility ratios, and energy dissipation capacities were obtained. The increase in the bonding length of the CFRP strips used for strengthening in the glulam timber beam specimens and the use of CFRP fan type anchors at the strip ends increased the ultimate load capacity and initial stiffness values of the wooden beams, as well as the displacement ductility ratios and energy dissipation capacity values.
