Yayın Religious solidarity, historical mission and moral superiority: construction of external and internal "others' in AKP's discourses on Syrian refugees in Turkey(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2018-10-20) Karakaya Polat, RabiaTurkey hosts the world's largest community of displaced Syrians. According to UNHCR, there are more than 3 million registered Syrians in Turkey as of 2018. Since the beginning of the conflict in Syria in 2011, Turkey's ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) has followed an open-door policy, which was accompanied by a discourse emphasizing religious solidarity and humanitarian values. However, the arrival of Syrian refugees has become entangled with the existing identity debates and conflicts in Turkish politics. The AKP's discourse on Syrian refugees has become intertwined with its positive self-representation as the defender of all oppressed people (mazlum) and its attempts to reconstruct the Turkish nation along more Islamic lines. The article analyses parliamentary debates and presidential speeches in order to unravel AKP discourses on Syrian refugees. Drawing upon the Discourse Historical Approach in Critical Discourse Analysis, the article puts forward two arguments. First, the refugee issue has become a constitutive component of AKP identity and a discursive tool to reconstruct the nation along more Islamic lines. Second, Turkey's refugee policy has become a source of pride and enabled the AKP to claim moral superiority both vis-a-vis the West and its political opponents at home.Yayın Europe, Turkey and the Middle East: Is harmonisation possible?(H.W. Wilson - Social Science Abstracts, 2006-09) Aras, Bülent; Bıçakcı, Ahmet SalihThe possibility of Turkey joining the European Union (EU) has generated much debate in both the EU and the Middle East--interest that Turkey has interpreted as a clear signal that it could be a powerful regional player. Indeed, Turkey's new ruling elite is sure that it can hold an active peacemaking role in the Middle East. Together, the EU and Turkey will be much stronger in the Middle East than either could be alone. Without the EU, Turkey would face the disadvantage of dealing with Middle East insecurity and instability by itself; the EU would miss the chance to embrace a democratic, Muslim country that already takes a pro-European stance in Middle East affairs. Therefore, harmonization of Turkish and EU policies is not only possible but, to a certain extent, necessary.Yayın Optical stimulated luminescence dating study of eolianite on the Island of Bozcaada, Turkey: Preliminary results(The Coastal Education and Research Foundation, 2010-07) Güneç Kıyak, Nafiye; Erginal, Ahmet EvrenIn the present paper, eolianite exposed on the south coast of the semiarid island of Bozcaada, Turkey, was investigated on the basis of geomorphologic and petrographic data, and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating results. The eolianite is lithic arenite in composition and contains abundant quartz, calcite, and various lithoclasts amalgamated with micritic calcite, sparitic calcite, and meniscus cements. Within the youngest layers standing at 1-2 m above sea level, the rock contains rhizoliths with or without carbonaceous fills. The OSL ages obtained ranged between 24.21 +/- 1.53 ka and 16.18 +/- 1.70 ka, suggesting that eolianite constitutes an example of low stand deposits coinciding with oxygen isotope stage 2 (OIS-2).Yayın Measurement of perceived psychological safety: integration, review and evidences for the scale in the context of Turkiye(İstanbul Üniversitesi Yayınevi, 2022-06-22) Bülbül, Seçil; İşiaçık, Serin; Aytaç, SerpilPsychological safety can predict many positive individual and organizational outcomes at work, and previous research addressed how psychological safety contributes to positive work attitudes and behaviors. In Turkey, there is quite an amount of research showing the contributing role of psychological safety perception on employees' positive performance behaviors and organizational effectiveness and innovativeness. However, previous research in Turkey does not adequately show the reliability and validity of the psychological safety scale, which was developed by Edmondson (1999). Based on the suggested requirement this study aimed to investigate the psychological safety perceptions of individuals who work in various sectors in Turkey. The adapted version of the psychological safety scale was used to gain evidence for the reliability and validity of the instrument in Turkey. In total, 585 individuals working in various industries and from various occupational groups participated in the research. Both exploratory factor analysis and the confirmatory factor analysis showed that Turkish adapted version of the psychological safety scale was valid and reliable.Yayın An automatic calibration procedure of driving behaviour parameters in the presence of high bus volume(Faculty of Transport and Traffic Engineering, 2019-11) Dadashzadeh, Nima; Ergün, Murat; Kesten, Ali Sercan; Zura, MarijanMost of the microscopic traffic simulation programs used today incorporate car-following and lane-change models to simulate driving behaviour across a given area. The main goal of this study has been to develop an automatic calibration process for the parameters of driving behaviour models using metaheuristic algorithms. Genetic Algorithm (GA), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and a combination of GA and PSO (i.e. hybrid GAPSO and hybrid PSOGA) were used during the optimization stage. In order to verify our proposed methodology, a suitable study area with high bus volume on-ramp from the 0-1 Highway in Istanbul has been modelled in VISSIM. Traffic data have been gathered through detectors. The calibration procedure has been coded using MATLAB and implemented via the VISSIM-MATLAB COM interface. Using the proposed methodology, the results of the calibrated model showed that hybrid GAPSO and hybrid PSOGA techniques outperformed the GA-only and PSO-only techniques during the calibration process. Thus, both are recommended for use in the calibration of microsimulation traffic models, rather than GA-only and PSO-only techniques.Yayın On the origin and age of the Ariburnu Beachrock, Gelibolu Peninsula, Turkey(Scientific Technical Research Council Turkey-TUBITAK, 2008-03-13) Erginal, Ahmet Evren; Güneç Kıyak, Nafiye; Bozcu, Mustafa; Ertek, Topçu Ahmet; Güngüneş, Hakan; Sungur, Ali; Türker, GülenThe beachrock formation on the Ariburnu coast situated in the Gelibolu Peninsula has been studied by field observation, thin-section interpretation, physicochemical analyses including ICP-AES and SEM/EDS, and OSL dating. These analyses reveal the presence of different amounts of major (Si, Ca, Mg, K, Fe, Al and Na) and trace elements within the beachrock cement with Si (36.2%) and Ca (32.68%) dominating the overall composition. Beachrocks composed of highly-fractured and friable beds reach a total thickness of 80 cm extending from + 60 cm at the uppermost level down to-1 m at their most seaward extent and grade from conglomerate to lithic arkose in vertical section. The total amount of CaCO(3) ranges between 59.08% and 36% and the cement consists of high-Mg calcite based on EDS analysis. From SEM examination, four main morphologies were identified in cement material: (1) micritic coatings, (2) cryptocrystalline pore-filling cement, (3) meniscus cement and (4) microbial cement and suggest the presence of marine phreatic conditions with the exception of meniscus bridges, which imply that cementation may have been dominated by carbonate-rich meteoric waters at any successive stage of cementation. Five buried beachrock samples under unconsolidated beach sand were sampled for Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) dating and show that the minimum and maximum ages of beachrock are 1.42 +/- 0.20 ka and 2.28 +/- 0.28 ka BP, respectively.Yayın First note on marine-like cementation of Late Holocene beachrock, Iznik Lake (Turkey)(Versita, 2012-03) Erginal, Ahmet Evren; Güneç Kıyak, Nafiye; Öztürk, Muhammed Zeynel; Yiğitbaş, Erdinç; Bozcu, Mustafa; Avcıoğlu, Mustafa; Öztürk, BeyhanMicro-fabric characteristics and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating results are presented to discuss the controlling agents and timing of beachrock cementation on the fresh-water Iznik Lake shoreline. The beachrocks are made up of grain-supported polygenic conglomerate containing 20.42% carbonate with encrusted grains, basically as micrite coatings, isopachous aragonite rims, cryptocrystalline void fills and meniscus bridges. The optical ages of twelve samples yielded ages that range from 4.226 +/- 0.569 ka on the lowermost beds to 0.706 +/- 0.081 on the uppermost. This is the first report of precipitation of marine-like cements in Iznik Lake. The abundant aragonite-dominated cement is likely indicative of precipitation-prone dry evaporative conditions from the climatic optimum to the last millennia.Yayın Etnik ve ulusal kimlikler ile dış grup tutumları ilişkisinde çatışma algısı ve dış gruba sorumluluk yükleme(Turkish Psychological Association, 2017-12) Bağcı Hemşinlioğlu, Sabahat Çiğdem; Çelebi, ElifBu araştırmada etnik ve ulusal kimliklerle özdeşim ile dış grup tutumları arasındaki ilişki, algılanan çatışma düzeyi ve dış gruba sorumluluk yükleme değişkenlerinin aracı rolü incelenerek değerlendirilmiştir. Sosyal kimlik teorisi ışığında, etnik kimliklerin olumlu dış grup tutumlarıyla negatif yönde ilişkili olacağı ve bu ilişkinin artan çatışma algısı ve dış gruba sorumluluk yükleme seviyeleri ile açıklanacağı; ortak iç grup kimlik teorisi ışığında ise ulusal kimliklerin olumlu dış grup tutumlarıyla pozitif yönde ilişkili olacağı ve bu ilişkinin azalan çatışma algısı ve dış gruba sorumluluk yükleme seviyeleri ile açıklanacağı öne sürülmüştür. Veriler Türkiye'nin değişik illerindeki üniversite kampüslerinde toplanmış, toplamda 320 Türk ve 153 Kürt üniversite öğrencisi arasında sınanmıştır. Yol analizleri sonuçlarına göre, her iki kimlikle özdeşim dış grup tutumlarıyla önerilen yönlerde ilişkili iken, algılanan çatışma seviyesi ve dış grup sorumluluk yükleme seviyesi bu ilişkilerde kısmi aracılar olarak rol almıştır. Ayrıca, Türk ve Kürt gruplar arasında dış grup tutumları ve algılanan çatışma seviyeleri arasında anlamlı farklılıklar gözlenmiştir. Türklerle karşılaştırıldığında Kürtler daha yüksek çatışma algısı ve dış gruba sorumluluk yükleme seviyeleri belirtmiştir. Aynı şekilde, Kürtler Türklere göre dış gruba karşı daha negatif tutumlar sergilemiştir. Türkiye'deki Türk-Kürt etnik gruplar arasındaki ilişkiler sosyal kimlik ve ortak iç grup kimlik teorileri göz önüne alınarak tartışılmıştır.Yayın Foreign direct investment in Turkey: Historical constraints and the AKP success story(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis LTD, 2008-01) Grigoriadis, Ioannis N.; Kamaras, AntonisEconomic development on an unambiguously national basis was one of the foundational principles of republican Turkey. Indeed, until very recently, foreign direct investment (FDI) was scant and had a marginal presence in the Turkish economy. Since Turkey's Justice and Development Party (Adalet ve Kalkinma Partisi-AKP) came into power in 2002, however, Turkey has generated more FDI than in the previous 20 years. Here, Grigoriadis and Kamaras examine closely this development.Yayın The odd tango of the islamic right and Kurdish left in Turkey: a peripheral alliance to redesign the centre?(Taylor & Francis, 2012-02-24) Demiralp, Seda[No abstract available]
