Yayın The dynamic relationship between technological change and employment: a comparison of youth and total employment using panel VAR approach and causality analysis(Sosyoekonomi Derneği, 2022-10) Görkey, SeldaThis study empirically examines the relationship and causality between technological change and employment by comparing youth and total employment. It covers data from 16 OECD economies from 1985 to 2018 and uses multifactor productivity (MFP) as a proxy for technological change. The findings from the general method of moments panel vector autoregression (GMM Panel-VAR) approach indicate significant and positive effects of MFP on youth and total employment, and a significant yet negative impact of youth employment on MFP. According to Panel-VAR-Granger- Causality analysis results, there is a two-way causality between MFP and youth employment and a one-way causality from MFP to total employment. Thus, this study empirically confirms the jobcreation effect of technology and finds out that the technological change and employment nexus differs for youth employment compared to that for total employment.Yayın Employment intensity of economic growth in Southern Europe: evidence from multidimensional panel data(2023-06-26) Görkey, Selda; Şen Taşbaşı, AslıThis paper examines the employment intensity of economic growth in Southern Europe during the so-called “post-crisis” recovery years. A labor demand estimation model based on multidimensional panel data from 2010 to 2019 was utilized. Findings from our macroeconomic analysis of eight different industries refute the predictions of neoclassical labor theory in the region. The results further indicate the presence of jobless growth in the areas of overall employment, fulltime employment, and overall employees. They also signal that economic growth may have created job opportunities in part-time and youth employment, and among temporary employees, rather than full-time jobs. The paper links these findings to particular characteristics of the regional labor market, discusses their.Yayın Unemployment and homeownership in Turkey: a preliminary analysis(Işık Üniversitesi Yayınları, 2023-04-10) Susanlı, Zehra BilgenUsing individual-level data, this paper aims to explore the link between homeownership and unemployment in Turkey. The Oswald hypothesis states that high homeownership is detrimental to labor market outcomes by restricting the geographical mobility of job searchers. Micro-evidence, however, indicates that homeowners have relatively favorable labor market outcomes. In contrast with the existing micro literature, the findings of this study are in favor of the Oswald hypothesis for the positive link between homeownership and unemployment probability.Yayın Technological change and unemployment nexus from a gender perspective: empirical evidence from a panel cointegration approach(Routledge, 2022-06-27) Görkey, SeldaThis study investigates the long-run relationship between technological change and unemployment, focusing on a gender perspective in developed economies. Considering the obstacles women face in accessing labor markets, this study aims to empirically combine the technological change and unemployment nexus with a gender perspective in 20 OECD economies from 1985 to 2019 by using multifactor productivity (MFP) as a proxy for technological change. The findings from Westerlund Panel Cointegration Test and Pedroni's Panel-Dynamic Ordinary Least-Squares (PDOLS) estimator indicate the presence of a long-run relationship between MFP and unemployment rate with diversified gender effects. Even though MFP affects total and male unemployment significantly and negatively in the long run, there is no significant effect on female unemployment for the whole panel. However, the findings by economies are diversified and they indicate the presence of technological unemployment for women in some economies. Thus, the empirical results clearly show that the long-run relationship between MFP and unemployment is affected by gender differences.Yayın Government expenditure and economic growth in Central and Eastern European economies: a panel ARDL approach(İstanbul Okan Üniversitesi, 2023-03) Görkey, SeldaThis study investigates the relationship between government expenditure and economic growth with a primary concern of focusing on the long-run effects. It uses the panel ARDL-PMG approach as an econometric methodology for 11 Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) economies from 1995 to 2019. The findings from the empirical analysis indicate a significant long-run relationship between the two macroeconomic variables; however, the relevant relationship is estimated negatively. The findings for the short-run effects for the whole panel and country-specific estimations also confirm that higher government expenditure results in a statistically significant decline in real GDP per capita. Thus, the findings of this study do not empirically validate the Keynesian theory for 11 CEE economies covered in the research over the 1995-2019 period.Yayın Causal links between patents and economic growth: empirical evidence from OECD countries(Universidade Nove de Julho-UNINOVE, 2024-08) Özkan Yıldız, Öznur; Görkey, SeldaObjective of the Study: This paper empirically investigates the reciprocal relationship and causality between patents and economic growth. Methodology/Approach: Utilizing the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) Panel Vector Autoregression (PVAR) and panel VAR-Granger Causality frameworks, the study concentrates on Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) economies where a high fraction of global innovative activities take place. Originality/Relevance: The relationship and causality between patents and economic growth are investigated and evaluated by distinguishing the former variable into patent applications and grants. Main Results: The findings from the GMM panel VAR approach indicate that patent applications and grants significantly affect economic growth, whereas economic activities do not influence patent-related variables. The estimations from the panel VAR-Granger approach confirm these findings by presenting a unidirectional causality from patent applications and grants to economic growth. The impulse-response functions (IRFs) exhibit parallel findings, and further checks validate the stability of the findings obtained. The outcomes of this study point out two crucial implications. First, the impacts of patent applications and grants affect economic growth similarly while the impact of patent grants lasts longer. Second, while patents cause higher economic activity, the latter does not induce innovative activity through patents in the OECD. Theoretical/Methodological Contributions: It would be useful to conduct separate analyses for a selected product, sector, or country by including research and development (R&D) expenditures for different periods, country groups, and analysis methods. Social/Management Contributions: Countries should prioritize the establishment of an effective patent management system that will increase the pace of innovation and the implementation of incentive policies for the development of high-value-added technology products.Yayın Renewable electricity consumption and economic growth: a cross-income panel ARDL analysis with implications for energy transition(İstanbul Okan Üniversitesi, 2025-06-02) Brown, Mustapha Abekah; Taşbaşı, AslıThe transition to renewable energy and the corresponding use of electricity generated from renewable sources is an inevitable solution that must be adopted to mitigate the effects of the climate crisis. The extant literature on the energy-economic growth nexus present mixed findings – some studies suggest the existence of a relationship while others find no significant relationship. Nevertheless, a growing number of recent studies provide evidence of an existing relationship. This study employs the panel ARDL techniques PMG, MG and DFE to investigate the short-run and long-run dynamics between renewable electricty consumption (RELC) and economic growth over the period 2000-2022 across 48 countries classified by income level. The results clearly indicate that the use of green electricity has a positive effect on economic growth across all income levels, albeit with varying magnitudes. Findings of the study provide particularly encouraging empirical evidence for a green transition in developing countries, underscoring the need for more attention to the unique challenges and opportunities faced by these economies.Yayın Female labor force and economic growth: empirical evidence from G5 economies(Ekin Yayınevi, 2023-03) Görkey, Selda; Karabulut, Şahin[No abstract available]Yayın Gain sensitivity and cheating: the role of psychological entitlement(Hogrefe AG-Hogrefe AG Suisse, 2023-10) Peker, Müjde; Koloğlugil, Serhat; Şahin, Türkay; Demircan, Nilhan; Koloğlugil, Serhat[No abstract available]Yayın Knowledge economy and the emergence of less-hierarchical organizational structures: an institutionalist approach(Işık Üniversitesi Yayınları, 2023-10-25) Koloğlugil, Serhat; Koloğlugil, SerhatRecent years have witnessed the proliferation of horizontal and less-hierarchical governance structures in organizations. The present paper argues that this development can be read as an institutional transition, within organizations themselves, in response to the rise of knowledge economy. Drawing also upon the related literature on hunter and gatherers, the paper shows that asset-based production is generally related with hierarchical social relations, whereas knowledge-based economic activity tends to generate relatively horizontal and egalitarian structures. It is argued in the paper that a similar dynamic is at work in today’s knowledge-based organizations, and that the institutional approach has the conceptual tools to study this transformation. In this regard, the paper aims to open up a theoretical space where the tools of institutional theory can be used, not only in the study of macro social-structures, but also in that of organizations and their transformations. Some further theoretical and practical implications of this approach are discussed in the final section.
