Bu sınırlılığa istinaden, bu çalışmada iş-aile çatışmasının önemli bireysel öncülleri olarak belirlenen, beş faktör kişilik özellikleri ve duygusal zekanın iş-aile çatışması üzerindeki etkilerine odaklanılmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemi, kamu kurumlarında çalışan ve Covid-19 pandemi koşulları nedeniyle iş yaşamlarında ilk defa evden çalışma deneyimi yaşayan 220 çalışanı kapsamaktadır. Araştırmanın bulguları, sorumluluk kişilik özelliği yüksek olan çalışanların daha az iş-aile çatışması yaşadıklarını gösterirken; duygusal dengesizlik kişilik özelliği yüksek olan çalışanların daha fazla iş-aile çatışması yaşadıklarını ortaya çıkarmıştır. Bununla birlikte, duygusal zekanın iş-aile çatışması üzerindeki etkisinin anlamlı olmadığı belirlenmiştir. Araştırma ile ilgili sınırlılıklar, katkılar ve öneriler ilaveten tartışılmıştır.Article Göç Yönetiminde Lojistik Konum Seçimi: Ege Bölgesi Üzerine Bir Inceleme(2021) Ergor, Zeynep Birce; Tas, Aysegul; Yılmaz, LeventTürkiye coğrafi konumu gereği önemli göç rotaları üzerinde bulunan bir ülkedir. Özellikle son yıllarda artan göç eden insan sayısındaki yoğunluk, Türkiye’deki göç olgusunun farklı yönlerden ele alınarak etkin bir şekilde yönetilmesini gerekli kılmıştır.

The aim of this exploratory research study is to explore specific factors/criteria that Turkish students consider during the process of selecting a graduate degree program at a university in the USA and to contribute to the limited research in the area of university branding. The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), which is a structured technique for analyzing complex, multi-criteria decisions, has been used for this research. Surveys were applied to students in order to discover specific factors/criteria that Turkish students employ during the process of selecting a graduate degree program at a university in the USA. In this study, there are many decision-criterias that need to be taken into consideration and each criterion must be analyzed with respect to a specific university. The in-depth interviews with professors/education counselors, student survey applications, and the analysis of previous stream of related research has led to identification of criterias to be used in the study. Following the pairwise comparisons, a survey has been designed to assess the relative superiority of the 12-criteria in the model. The most prominent criteria during the process of selecting a graduate degree program was reported as “Post Graduation Job and Career Prospects”. The findings of this study can be used to support those who have the intention to develop a successful university brand.Article Institutions‟ And Initiatives‟ Role In Turkey‟s National Innovation System(2011) Sakarya, Arif OrçunIn Turkey, increasing focus to the concept of innovation underlined the importance of the related institutions’ role in the economic agenda.

Can Dual-indexed Mortgages be a Remedy?(2007) Alp, AliA market-oriented housing finance system has been under discussion in Turkey recently. In this article we analyze different types of mortgages that have been used in developed and developing countries to select the one that is most appropriate for Turkey-one which minimizes risks for both lenders and borrowers. Each type of mortgage presents different risks to borrowers and lenders. After taking into consideration the economic history of Turkey, we conclude that the most appropriate mortgage for Turkey that minimizes risk is the dual-indexed mortgage model. We test this model by using data from the most volatile period of the Turkish economy, applying historical simulation and Monte-Carlo simulation. We find that, using this model; the total loan is paid off in a reasonable period without causing substantial difficulty for lenders and borrowers. Analyses confirm that borrowers and lenders are exposed to minimum risk if this type of mortgage is originated in Turkey.Article How Do Enterprises Communicate Their Innovation Strategies?
