In the changing and developing world order, the contribution of more practical and abstract thinking skills of professions to professionalization should not be denied. This review was created with the aim of creating and supporting the studies on chaos theory and nursing by considering the deficiency in the literature. The study and research is privatized nurse manager of a professional attitude to the science of perspective created by the size and shape new paradigms of classical physics theories formed work to bring chaos theory was investigated. Nursing is a profession that feeds on human relationships and health sciences. Considering the field of study, the technology and diseases used, it can be stated that the practice areas of nurse managers can be inspired by chaos theory.

Chaos theory has caused a huge perspective change in the world of physics and unsettled the Newtonian view which is based on the idea that the world and the universe have determinist characteristics working in a regular and predictable way. Chaos theory, while opposing to the idea of universe in classical science, is grounded on chaotic and dynamic systems in contrast to consistent and predictable structures. It cannot be expected not to see the effects of chaos theory, which has caused a huge change in our judgement of the world and the universe, on social sciences. As a matter of fact, within the mentioned context, it can be seen that lots of studies have been carried out in West to interpret literary texts from different aspects based on chaos theory. In this article, it is aimed to interpret Behçet Necatigil's, one of the important names of modern Turkish literature, "Karışık Tarife" (Mixed Tariff) which questions and unsettles understanding of the traditional poetry based on chaos theory. To this end, firstly, chaos theory is going to be explained and a model on how to benefit from this theory in literary works in general, and in poetry specifically is going to be proposed. Then, the mentioned poem is going to be evaluated through the means such as "order within disorder", "not being linear" and "dependence on initial conditions" presented by the perspective of chaos theory.

The BIST 100 index is used to evaluate the success of the highest 100 shares in terms of criteria such as free float rate, transaction volume and market value. In this paper, it is aimed to determine whether the BIST 100 returns have a chaotic structure and short term predictability. First of all, using BIST 100 price index data between 02.01.2008 and 02.01.2018, BIST 100 returns were obtained. Using the optimal delay time and embedding dimension, the phase space required for chaos analysis was reconstructed. Then, the correlation dimension of the chaotic attractor in the new phase space obtained for this return series was calculated. BDS (Brock, Dechert and Scheinkman) test was used to determine whether the BIST 100 structure was linear. However, the Hurst exponential coefficient was determined by the transformed width method to determine whether the series had long term memory. As a result of positive Lyapunov exponent of return series, it was determined whether this series showed chaotic behavior. Following the chaos analysis, BIST 100 index was estimated by ANN and ANFIS model. The outputs of the model with the lowest error value are transformed into return series, and the estimated values of the BIST 100 returns are obtained. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this study, the chaotic behavior of the T system is shown by analyzing Lyapunov exponents, Kaplan-Yorke dimension and equilibrium points. Also, the chaos control of T system showing chaotic behavior under certain parameters is investigated via linear feedback control. Routh- Hurwitz criterion is used to provide the condition of stability of the controlled system around the equilibrium points. The feedback gain is calculated to control the T chaotic system with single state feedback, then the same calculations repeated for the control of the system with two and three state feedback. The controller designed by calculating the feedback coefficients using the Routh-Hurwitz criterion is added to the T chaotic system. It is shown by phase portraits how the change of the feedback gains affects the control of the system. The design and implementation of the controller is quite simple. Due to the simple structure of the controller, the controller hardware is low and realized conveniently. Simulation results show that the controlled system with the application of feedback control converges to zero and other equilibrium points. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The concepts of chaos and order have been an important question for man. Philosophers have brought the processes of the universe and nature, which were initially associated with chaos, to a level that can be comprehended with reason and thought. Every innovation in both intellectual and scientific fields has created a state of chaos, a new order in every situation of chaos by forcing the existing order to change. The traditional administration understanding created by the Roman Church has been transformed with the Renaissance and Reform Movements. Subsequently, the Weberian Bureaucracy, which was based on a rational and legal basis around the Newtonian understanding of Physics, was born. By the 20th century, Newtonian Physics was corrected by Quantum Physics. This caused the emergence of Post Modern Public Administration understanding around the Quantum, Chaos and Complexity theories by affecting the Weberian Bureaucracy. With these changes, the understanding of management has entered into a continuous chaos process instead of scientific foundations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The chaos theory is trying to explain nature events with physics, chemistry and mathematic tests and firstly emerged in the nature sciences. Health care systems are complex in terms of patients, workers, illnesses, work environments and requires high technologies and this creates the theory an application area. Chaos theory is used to root causes for change, especially in explaining the behavior of complex systems. Chaos theory can be used in the planning of nursing practice because it contains complex and dynamic processes. This article aims to explain the chaos theory by questioning the usability, to discuss and facilitate understanding of theory via an example.

The existence of each organization is shaped around an aim. The organization will continue to exist as long as this aim is obtained, realized and is meaningful. The different sub-systems that make up the organization have to aim for it in a way that is compatible with some of them. The management system and its conception are the basic structures that ensure compatibility of these subsystems. There are different thoughts in the historical process regarding how the management system would be shaped and how it would be implemented. These different thoughts are often influenced by paradigms that shape the social system in their own historical processes. There have been significant changes in the interpretation and implementation of the concepts that constitute the foundations of the management understanding. Basically managing an organization and the tools used in management haven't been changed. The notes are the same as they are in music notes. However, the music played is now different. Today one of the important issues that affect the management approach is the concept of change. Change has gathered so much speed that organizations are trying to exist in a sea of chaos. In this study, the development of management and chaos theory are taken into consideration. For this purpose, in theoretical framework, it is aimed to examine the development of management concept in chaos theory and then to make suggestions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

İşörgütleri kısa zaman aralıklarıile değişiklik gösteren, yarının ne olacağının belli olmadığıve tahmin edilemediği bir kaotik kaosun yaşandığı ortamda faaliyette bulunmak zorundadırlar. İçinde faaliyette bulunulan ortamın sürekli ve hızlıbir biçimde değişiklikler göstermesi işörgütlerinin kaos ortamında yaşadıklarının bir göstergesidir. Bu kaotik ortamda ayakta kalabilen işorganizasyonlarıhem varlıklarınısürdürebilecekler hem de rekabetçi üstünlük sağlayabileceklerdir. Aksi takdirde sürekli değişen koşullara uyum sağlayamayarak yok olup gideceklerdir. Kaos anlamındaki düzensizlik, basit bir dağınıklık yada karmaşa değildir. Düzensizliği bu şekilde tanımlamak hem kaosu, hem de kaosun zıddıolan düzeni anlaşılmaz hale sokmaktan başka işe yaramayacaktır. Kaos kavramı, belirsizlik ve tahmin edilemez değişimle tanımlanmakta ve yeni bilimin önemli konularından sadece birini oluşturmaktadır.

Water is an indispensable requirement for health and quality of life. For this reason, the efficient use of water resources play a significant role. Water basins serve many purposes such as drinking water supply, irrigation and energy production. Considering all those purposes, accurate and effective management policies are needed for the efficiency of water resource usage. In particularly, the gauged data need good analysis, and accurate predictability. Beside, implementation of new developed methods is highly important to enhance the performance of predictability. This study is an implementation of chaotic analysis on hydrological series to determine the predictability of the system and observe the prediction performance. The daily discharge data of Çoruh basin with 33-years record was used. The length of the data is considered to be long enough for determining the system characteristics. In addition, wavelet approach is used to decompose data its component to ensure a more detailed analysis. The entropy concept which is a measure of the information carried by the system is taken into account to determine the appropriate level of decomposition. In the results, it is observed that the data of Çoruh river basin, is performed a chaotic character and responds with a good performance to the prediction method of local approximation under chaotic analysis. Beside all, the approximation component of wavelet decomposition exhibits a better performance to the original data set in local approximation prediction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Career counseling theories which are still in use have a basis of person, environment or vocations. Some theories keep supporting the opinions since Parsons which tries to gather the person and adequate vocation together. But all of these theories based on foresight of the adequate vocation for person and in the context of reason and result they act from the assumption that same reasons cause same results. However, most characteristic properties of person and his/her behaviors are contrary to this reason and result idea. To investigate this complex situation career counseling needs a viewpoint which has specific philosophy, concepts and intervention techniques. At this point, it is thought that "chaos theory" has strong basis to be investigated. The purpose of this study is investigating the chaos theory in the context of career counseling and evaluating the career counseling program which was developed with chaos theory in the context of a client. In this study, general structure, basic concepts and techniques of chaos theory were investigated due to literature review and a structured eight-session counseling program was developed. Then program was practiced with a client who experiences problems about her career development. Client's situation was analyzed in context of chaos theory based on case investigation method. At the end of the program change in client's decision making strategy was observed and she changed her existing career plan and put in to practice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Turkish financial crises 1994 and 2000-2001 are spaced some years apart, creating an illusion that "this time is different" among policymakers and investors. Suppose that the dynamics of the macroeconomy generates multiple values for the domestic interest rate premium : "bad" and "good." The sudden shifts in financial markets that characterize financial crises are then interpreted as a shift from good equilibrium to the bad one. In this paper, we specify a dynamic model in which debt default through inflation is possible, determine its closed-form solution and multiple equilibria. We estimate the model using the properties of chaos theory, against post-liberalization period (1989-2010) data for Turkey. The problem takes as given our model economy with multiple equilibria and asks whether the multiple equilibria can be verified by the data. To make progress on this problem we introduce phase-space portrait of the interest rates and identify path for debt dynamics moving from low and diverging through high interest levels. Second, we measure how the default episodes 1994 and 2000-2001 converge on phase-space, depending on the maximal Lyapunov exponent. Since the data show support for the multiple-equilibrium explanation of the serial defaults, we better understand the significance of domestic debt behind the high inflation, banking crises and currency crashes that Turkish economy frequently experienced in its post-liberalization period.

In Business Administration discipline there have been various views on leader's statue and role in strategy formation. Who is the strongest in the internal environment of the organization? Does the leader form the strategies or organizational dynamics do so? Does the organization follow the strategy, or vice versa? Is there control over chaos or chaos over control in the organization? The aim of this study is to examine the control-chaos paradox stated in Mintzberg's "Strategy Safari" book within the perspective of Entrepreneurial School, which is one of the ten schools of strategic management and to underline the initiative of the leader with his "entrepreneur-oriented character".
