Yayın An investigation of moral foundations theory in Turkey using different measures(Springer New York LLC, 2019-04-15) Yalçındağ, Bilge; Özkan, Türker; Cesur, Sevim; Yılmaz, Onurcan; Tepe, Beyza; Piyale, Zeynep Ecem; Biten, Ali Furkan; Sunar, Diane G.Claims of universality for Moral Foundations Theory (MFT) require extensive cross-cultural validation. The present study aims to (1) develop Turkish versions of three instruments used to research MFT (MFQ, MFQL, MSQ); (2) assess the psychometric properties of the Turkish instruments; (3) test the assumptions of the theory against findings from the instruments in Turkish culture. Three independently translated versions of the MFQ were administered to three samples totaling 1432 respondents. Results were consistent across samples. Internal reliability was satisfactory. CFA indicated a best fit for a 5-factor solution despite low fit indices and high error coefficients. EFA yielded a 3-factor solution, which did not replicate the 2-factor “individualizing” and “binding” factors found in U.S. samples. CFA and EFA with the MSQ produced 2-factor solutions which also did not align with the individualizing-binding dichotomy. Meaningful relations between the moral foundations and scores on political orientation and religiosity supported the validity of the measures in Turkish culture.Yayın Competency approach to human resources management: Outcomes and contributions in a Turkish cultural context(Sage Publications, 2006-03) Özçelik, Gaye; Ferman, Ali MuratThis article examines the competency approach to human resources management (HRM) in organizations through a review of literature and theories on the competency perspective. Building on previous theory and some empirical evidence, a new competency framework is developed. The main purpose of the article is to examine the effectiveness of the competency approach as a human resources strategy for promoting expected roles, skills, and behaviors in organizations. The article also examines potential challenges to implementing a competency approach to HRM in a special cultural context. This is provided by a case study in a multinational, fast-moving, consumer goods company in Turkey. One of the findings of the study is that there are challenges to implementing the competency approach due to the cultural differences between home and host countries. If properly designed, however, the competency approach can enhance selection, development, promotion, and reward processes to meet both individual and organizational needs.Yayın Der zusammenhang zwischen selbstkonzept und psychischer belastung bei Türkischen und Deutschen frauen mit depression: implikationen für die psychotherapeutische arbeit mit Türkischen Migranten(Georg Thieme Verlag KG, 2013-04) Balkır Neftçi, Nazlı; Arens, Elisabeth A.; Wolff, Carolin; Barnow, SvenAnliegen: Die Untersuchung kultureller Unterschiede im Zusammenhang zwischen Selbstkonzept und psychischer Belastung. Methode: Insgesamt wurden 56 türkische und deutsche stationäre Patientinnen mit Depression untersucht. Ergebnisse: Bei türkischen Frauen war ein interdependentes Selbstkonzept mit einer niedrigeren, bei deutschen Frauen mit einer höheren psychischen Belastung assoziiert. Schlussfolgerung: In der psychotherapeutischen Arbeit mit türkischen Migranten spielen kulturell bedingte Unterschiede im Selbstkonzept eine wichtige Rolle für die Ableitung von Therapiezielen und Interventionen.Yayın The use of Facebook by Turkish mothers: its reasons and outcomes(Springer, 2020-03-01) Ögel Balaban, Hale; Altan, ŞebnemObjectives: Parents use social network sites for reasons related to bridging and bonding social capital, and entertainment. The aim of the present study was to examine whether the use of Facebook by Turkish mothers and its reasons are related to mothers’ demographic characteristics, anxiety level and perceived social support. It also examined whether mothers’ Facebook use contributes to their perception of their parental role. Methods: Three hundred thirty-two middle-class Turkish mothers who reported to use Facebook completed the demographic information questionnaire, the use of social media questionnaire, the anxiety inventory, the perceived social support scale and the self-perception of parental role questionnaire. Results: Results indicated that Turkish mothers use Facebook more for reasons related to bridging social capital than reasons related to bonding social capital and entertainment. The frequency of using Facebook and the length of time having an account predicted the use of Facebook for reasons related to bridging and bonding social capital. Anxiety level predicted the use of Facebook for reasons related to entertainment. Mothers’ Facebook use was found not to be related to their self-perceived parental competence. Conclusions: The discussion of these findings in terms of Turkish culture implied the need for cross-cultural studies for a better understanding of parents’ use of social network sites.Yayın Protective and risk factors associated with involved fatherhood in a traditional culture(John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2023-02) Kisbu, Yasemin; Akçinar Yayla, Berna; Kuşcul, Gönül Hilal; Bozok, Mehmet; Turunç, Gamze; Fişek, GülerObjective: Consistent with ecological systems theory and the heuristic model of parental behavior dynamics, the current study is focused on both individual and contextual factors that determine fatherhood involvement in the context of a traditional patriarchal culture. Background: Father–child interaction during the early childhood period is a salient factor in predicting later child outcomes. However, studies on antecedents of involved fatherhood are scarce, mostly concentrated on one aspect of fathering behavior, and limited to few cultural contexts. Method: Data were collected from a representative urban sample of fathers of preschoolers in Turkey (N = 1,070). Different components of fatherhood involvement were assessed to project three distinct paternal behavior dimensions as care, affection, and control. Results: Father role satisfaction, psychological value attributed to the child, and perceived family support were positively associated with involved fatherhood and higher parental warmth. Working hours per day was negatively associated with involved fatherhood, as expected. Higher life satisfaction was associated with higher positive parenting. Patriarchal views of masculinity were found to be the main predictor of parental physical punishment, controlling for all other predictors in the model. Conclusion: Study findings emphasized the importance of factors other than parenting skills that contribute to fathers' parental effectiveness. Implications: Our study's findings have implications for family practices and policies. For example, besides parenting skills, father support programs should also focus on other factors such as developing awareness of traditional masculinity norms and gender role prescriptions that can harm democratic family environments and childcare practices.Yayın Scenes from the mind of an artist (M Train)(Bentham Science Publishers, 2023-11-12) Özdem, GökçePatti Smith's M Train resembles a mental train that stops at any station, at any time interval. With ambition and inspiration, Smith takes the reader on a journey between dreams and reality, past and present, books and country. Smith's whole life can be considered a work of art. She is an unconventional artist who reveals herself in her relation to space. In an intertwined experience of time and space, we find Smith reminiscing on life, loss, and pains of creation. Smith's analogy of a clock with no hands refers to a frozen time, a memory where the past and the present coexist. This memory also contains the ties that a person establishes with their physical environment. The subjectivity of experience creates differences in the perception of a space. But how is it possible to resist time in our age of speed? This is what Smith presents to her readers: an infinite present. Smith's memory resists its loss, just as architecture resists time. Architecture witnesses personal and social tragedies and freezes them in time. In this sense, architecture turns into a memory remnant, a trace, and survives by creating a bridge between the past, present, and even the future. Smith's experience of the past in the present also makes it possible to interpret the relationship between architecture and experiential time. In this context, architecture reveals memory space and becomes an important factor in the reproduction of memory. Moreover, it can help revive and maintain memory by constructing new forms of expression. In this regard, personal and social memory emerges as a subject that should be emphasized in architectural research.
