In this study, it was aimed to examine the sustainable agriculture perceptions of paddy farmers using factor analysis. The main material of the study consisted of primary data obtained through a survey method from 89 paddy farmers operating in the İpsala district of Edirne province, located in the Thrace part of the Marmara Region of Türkiye. In order to determine the factors affecting the sustainable agriculture perceptions of paddy farmers, 60 propositions were presented to the farmers and the degree of agreement with each proposition was determined using a likert scale. As a result of the preliminary analysis, factor analysis was conducted with 30 propositions with factor loadings greater than 0.50. According to the results of the factor analysis, it has been determined that the eigenvalues for 9 factors are greater than 1 among the eigenvalues of 30 variables. For this reason, factor analysis results were examined taking into account 9 factors. These 9 factors explain % 72.35 of the total variance. These factors and their total variance explanation ratios were determined as; Factor1 "Environmental sensitivity factor (15.97%)", Factor2 "Education and awareness factor (11.64%)", Factor3 "Paddy production and women factor (8.47%)", Factor4 "Seed preference and risk management factor (7.01%)", Factor5 "Use of financial resources obtained for agricultural purposes in paddy production factor (6.60%)", Factor6 "Cooperation and environmental improvement factor (6.44%)", Factor7 "Environmental degradation and productivity factor (6.08%)", Factor8 "Health factor (5.38%)", Factor9 "Productivity factor (4.77%)", respectively. These results obtained from the study indicate that in order to ensure sustainability in paddy production; It provides important data for policy makers and decision makers regarding the promotion of environmentally friendly sustainable agricultural techniques by the government and the training of farmers on sustainable agricultural techniques.

This research was conducted to determine the effect of critical thinking education on students' nursing diagnosis identification, perception and critical thinking motivation. The research is quasi-experimental with a single-group pre-test post-test design. Sample; It consisted of 35 second-year students who took the elective 'Critical Thinking' course in the spring term of the 2020-2021 academic year in the nursing department of a faculty located in the Central Black Sea Region. Personal Information Form, Nursing Diagnosis Perception Scale and Critical Thinking Motivation Scale were used to collect data. Descriptive statistics and correlation analysis were used in the analysis of the data. According to the results of the research, 71.4% of the students are women and 94.3% have not received critical thinking training before. While the mean score of the Critical Thinking Motivation Scale was 82.00±10.76 before the training, it was 86.05±12.43 after the training. While the mean score of the Perception of Nursing Diagnoses Scale was 68.08±19.84 before the education, it was 66.91±16.18 after the education. After the training, the mistakes made by the students while determining the nursing diagnoses decreased. According to the results of the research, it has been determined that the education provided contributes to the increase in the students' use of critical thinking skills while determining the nursing diagnosis and in determining the diagnoses correctly.

Algılama süreci bir objeyi, durumu veya mekânı duyularımız aracılığıyla içselleştirip yorumlayarak kavramayı kapsamaktadır. Sinestezi ise bir duyu kipinin uyarılmasının başka bir duyu kipinde bir duyuma yol açması olgusunu ifade etmektedir ve birleşik duyu olarak da adlandırılmaktadır. Algılama, duyumsama, atmosfer kavramı ve çok duyulu deneyimler konusunda fikir üreten teorisyenlerin çalışmalarıyla da konu gündeme taşınmıştır. Sanallaşma, akıllı sistemler, yapay zekâ kavramlarıyla birlikte; mekânı algılama, deneyimleme ve duyumsama biçimlerimiz de değişmekte ve dönüşmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, çoklu duyusal deneyim mekânlarının teknolojik gelişmelerle birlikte ortaya çıkardığı durumu tartışmaktır. Çalışmanın yöntemi, teknolojik imkânlarla oluşturulan farklı çoklu duyusal mekân örnekleri üzerinden bir çözümleme yapmak olarak belirlenmiştir. “Çoklu duyusal mekân deneyimi” “sinestezi’’ ve “sinestezik mekân” anahtar kelimelerinin en çok tekrar ettiği altı adet çalışma seçilmiştir. Örneklerin içerikleri analiz edildiğinde dijital teknolojilerin kullanılmasının ve algının manipüle edilmesinin zaman-mekân duyumu üzerinde etkili olduğu görülmüştür. Ayrıca, sinestezik yaklaşımların yeni algılama ve deneyimleme biçimleri ortaya çıkarabilme potansiyeli olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

Bu çalışma erken çocukluk dönemi çocuklarının çeşitli değer kavramlarını nasıl algıladıklarını ve tanımladıklarını araştırmak amacıyla yapılmıştır. Çalışmada nitel araştırma desenlerinden fenomenolojik yaklaşım kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu okul öncesi eğitime devam eden 5 yaşındaki 20 çocuk oluşturmuştur. Çocuklar belirlenirken, amaçlı örnekleme yöntemlerinden tipik durum örneklemesi kullanılmıştır. Örneklemin tamamının aynı sosyo-ekonomik düzeyde ve daha önce formal değerler eğitimi almamış olmasına dikkat edilmiştir. Çocuklara araştırmacılar tarafından seçilen 7 değer kavramını içeren açık uçlu sorulardan (sorumluluk, paylaşma, yardımseverlik, arkadaşlık, saygı, dürüstlük ve nezaket) oluşan veri toplama aracı yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme tekniğiyle uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler içerik analizi tekniği ile değerlendirilmiştir. Katılımcıların değer kavramlarıyla ilgili sorulara verdiği cevaplardan elde edilen veriler kodlanmış ve temalar oluşturularak tablolaştırılmıştır. Bulguların tanımlanıp yorumlanmasıyla elde edilen sonuçlarda çocukların sorumluluk, paylaşma, yardımseverlik ve saygı değerleri ile ilgili algılama ve tanımlamalarının birbirine benzer olduğu görülmüştür. Sorumluluk değerini tanımlarken çocukların genellikle evde kendilerine telkin edilen görevler üzerinden tanımlamalar yapmaya çalıştığı; paylaşma ve yardımseverlik değerlerine yönelik tanımlamalarda daha önce yaşamış oldukları paylaşma ve yardımlaşma deneyimlerinden etkilendikleri; saygı değerine ilişkin tanımlamalarında ise çevresindeki yetişkinlerin davranış ve öğretilerinden etkilendikleri görülmektedir. Arkadaşlık değerini ise paylaşma ve yardımseverlik değerleri üzerinden açıklamaya çalıştıkları saptanmıştır. Dürüstlük ve nezaket kavramlarının ise çoğunlukla algılanamayan ve tanımlanamayan kavramlar olduğu tespit edilmiştir.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the effect of birth type on parenting behaviors, infant perception and maternal attachment. Materials and Methods: This descriptive and comparative study was conducted with 77 primipara mothers (vaginal birth: 48, cesarean section: 29). The data were collected in three follow-ups using the Individual Presentation Form, Postpartum Parenting Behavior Scale (PPBS), Neonatal Perception Scale (NPS) and Maternal Attachment Scale (MAS). The first follow-up was performed by observation in the birth room/operating room, and the second follow-up was carried out by face to face interview in the obstetrics clinic 24 hours after the birth and the third follow-up was conducted as reaching by telephone one month after the birth. Results: In the study, no statistically meaningful difference was found between the mean scores of PPBS, MAS and infant perception regarding the birth type. No correlation was found between the PPBS and MAS mean scores in both groups, and no difference between the mean scores of PPBS and MAS was found regarding their infant perception. Conclusion: As the cesarean delivery rates increases, nursing care given to women that give cesarean section increases. Some mothers may be anxious and upset about maternal attachment, parenting, and newborn because of cesarean delivery. Therefore, nurses should support these mothers by expressing that there is no difference between parental behavior, maternal attachment levels and newborn perception according to the type of delivery in addition to standard care.

Objective: The relationship between the mother and the infant begin on the first day of birth and that affects the future life of the infant. Thus, the aim of the present study was to compare the mother-infant relationship between women who had vaginal birth and those who had cesarean section. Methods: This prospective descriptive study was conducted on 300 primiparous women after obtaining the necessary permission. The study sample was categorized into 3 groups: vaginal delivery (VD; n=100), emergency cesarean section (EmCS; n=100), and elective cesarean section (ElCS; n=100). The Descriptive Characteristics Form, Maternal Attachment Scale (MAS), Neonatal Perception Inventory (NPI), and Postpartum Parenting Behavior Scale (PPBS) were used as the data collection tools. Results: The mean MAS score of the mothers was 96.6±5.58; 83.7% of the mothers perceived their babies as positive and 16.3% as negative (according to the NPI). No statistically significant relationship was noted among the MAS, NPI, and the mode of delivery (p>0.05). The mean PPBS score of the mothers was 3.24±1.59 (mean PPBS score by groups; VD =3.62±1.57, EmCS =2.84±1.52, ElCS =3.28±1.60). Mothers who had VD showed higher mean PPBS scores than those who had EmCS (p=0.001). Conclusion: Our results suggest that the mode of delivery affects the parenting behavior during the early postpartum period. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Ali Smith’s How to Be Both (2014) provides the reader with a unique reading experience through two interconnected narratives. The novel has two separate editions with the same words and the same cover; the only difference between these editions is the order of the sections it contains. Hence, the text challenges the reader’s comprehension and perception. Fluidity and simultaneity, which are indicated in the title of the novel is the focal point of this study. Throughout the novel, fiction and non-fiction, past and present, art and life, living human beings and ghosts, creation and destruction, eyes and camera intertwine. The aim of this article is to examine the narrative devices employed in this novel, whilst displaying the presentation of the characters in these interwoven stories. While discussing the structure of the novel as well as the relationship between the main characters (one of which is a Renaissance painter, whereas the other is a modern adolescent girl), theories on seeing, gaze, visibility and perception - with reference to Michel Foucault, Maurice Merleau-Ponty and John Berger - are employed. This study examines the relationship between seeing and the mind, the communication between perception and prejudice, and the reflection of concepts such as point of view and perspective in visual arts and literature. The analysis of certain incidents, characters and notions via close reading of the text makes it possible to consider concepts such as seeing, comprehension and point of view in light of both Renaissance and contemporary theories.

Today, it is important that brands add many different elements to the brand communication process in order to convince consumers. Perception is a psychological factor that drives consumer behavior. In addition, it includes how individuals understand and interpret many stimuli they encounter in the environment they live in. It can also be said that the perception has a significant impact on the shaping of the advertising content as it is a consumer-oriented element. In this respect, the correct orientation of the perception, based on the consumer expectations, is the determining factor in the success of the brand. In this research, nine advertising images which have received awards in 2017 Kristal Elma Press Category, are examined in terms of perception characteristics. In this respect, the images added to the sample were analyzed semiotic. In the results obtained, it was determined that visual studies and message contents were shaped by a certain structural integrity. At the same time, it is seen that advertising attractions, such as fear and humor, are frequently preferred to arouse the interest of the consumer. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Uluslararası sistemin incelenmesi esnasında ve günlük yaşamda sıkça kullanılan temel kavramlardan birisi olan küreselleşme kavramının nasıl bir tanımlama ve algılama yarattığının incelenmesi bu çalışmanın amacını oluşturmaktadır. Çalışma, temel görüşler çerçevesinde ele alınmakta ve tanımlama ve algılamalara ilişkin kaynaklar çalışmanın sınırlarını oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmada, soyut bir kavramın günlük yaşamda ve uluslararası ilişkilerde somutlaşmasında öncü rol oynayan uluslararası aktörlerin önemli rolünün olduğu görülmektedir. Ancak, günlük yaşamda sıkça duyulan küreselleşmenin farklı algılanması bir gerçek olduğu gibi, yine küreselleşmenin uluslararası sistemde bir güç unsuru olarak uluslararası aktörler tarafından bir rekabet ve güç gösterisi olarak kullanıldığı sonucuna varılmaktadır. Şüphesiz küreselleşmenin algılanmasının yarattığı farklılıklar ile küreselleşmenin sömürü aracı şeklinde mi? yoksa küreselcilik adı altında günümüz insanının hizmetine mi? sunulduğu muğlâk bir algılama yaratmaktadır.

Business ethics has not yet taken its place among the “defined” and “clear” concepts in the literature despite the numerous researches made in the last two decades. Gender difference is one the main reasons of this ambivalence.The increased participation of women in the work force is an important trend and this trend has generated research interest in "ethical decision making". For the majority of researchers, men and women differ in how they solve moral dilemmas. As a general result, men are likely to consider moral issues in terms of justice, rules and individual rights. Women, on the other hand, tend to consider such issues in terms of relationship, caring and compassion.In this article, the results of some researches made on this issue are shared and compared. These researches’ results generally show that both perceptions and behaviors of female employees differ from males’. But also, there are some limitations, which force us to think that these differences between genders may change as of cultural and sectoral differences.

Material-Methods: Universe of the descriptively-designed study consisted of nursing students of a university (N=620). No sample was selected, 342 students who accepted to participate in the study were included. Data was collected with questionnaire form and Caring Assessment Questionnaire. Frequencies, percentage distribution, mean, standard deviation, independent samples t test, and one-way variance analysis were used for data analysis. Results: The mean age of students was 20.33 ± 1.5, 91.2% of the students were female, 94.4% of them were single and 59.1% of them chose nursing willingly. The students' mean score of Caring Assessment Questionnaire was 5.23±0.9. The students who chose the nursing profession willingly, who stated that caring is the primary duty of nurses and who experienced caring and being cared had higher Caring Assessment Questionnaire scores (p<0.05). Conclusion: It was determined that nursing students' perceptions of caring behaviors were good; choosing the profession willingly and having experiences such as caring and being cared influenced their perceptions towards caring behaviors. In the line of these results; providing students to choose the profession willingly, providing practices regarding continuity of positive caring behaviors of the students during nursing education are recommended.

Perception is a wide-ranging process that researchers try to explain with different theories and different approaches, examine the formation on an individual and also related with interpreting stimulus within this framework, individual needs to perceive the work of art to interpret the work which faces to visuality as the works of artists in Art Education. Not only perception but also visual perception plays on important role in perceiving and interpreting the works. The basic feature of Op Art which provides the formation of works creating perception, visual perpection and illusions on viewers is interpreting with an unreal movement and generally with a composition geometric shopes that have lines and contrast colours, in the research, the works and the formation process and also perceptions, visual perception and illusion are examined separately in Modern Art Consideration. With this research; it is aimed to examine the Works of Victoria Vasarely who is the most important procurator of Op Art Furthermore, it is meant to how these works create perception, visual perception and illusion on viewers in the Art education of students and how perception and visual perception in Op Art turns into conscious perception illusions. On the back of examining perception, visual perception, illusions and Op Art; these concepts are combined with the works of Op Art procurator, Victoria Vasarely. As a result the data that gathered with the research- Perception, Visual Perception and Illusion in Art Education: An Examination in the Works of Victoria Vasarely-is considered to contribute in person’ s sight since there is a difference between “to see” and “to sight” in Art education.

Europe has faced with a huge immigration crisis due to a mass immigration flow from war-torn countries of the Middle East and North Africa recent years. Migration flow from mostly Muslim countries not only led to the discussions on the necessity of a real common migration policy for the EU with appropriate tools to regulate the flow of immigrants among countries including visa quotas distributed among EU states, a willingness to share responsibility for the settlement of refugees, acceptance of refugee claims but also re-opened the debate of the integration of immigrants in their societies. Moreover, recruitment of Islamic State (ISIL) jihadists from among young European Muslims in European states has raised doubts about the re-securitization of migration in Europe. I used the term "re-securitization" because migration was already securitized after the 9/11 terror attacks in the United States (2001) and the following Al-Qaeda bombings in Madrid (2004) and London (2005). This article evaluates the perceived image of Muslim immigrants by examining three different eras: the post-Cold War era, the post 9/11 era and the post-Arab Spring era and its evolution from "cultural threat" to "terror threat". It analyzes the far-right parties' discourse and speech acts in Europe, which have affected mainstream parties' construction of the Muslim immigrants as an existential threat and legitimized their extraordinary measures to contain it. Finally, it focuses on the possible impact of the ISIL threat on the resecuritization of migration in Europe. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objectives: This study was undertaken in order to test the validity and reliability of Turkish forms of three scales developed to determine the type and degree of stress perceived by nursing undergraduates during clinical practices, their bio-psycho-social responses to stress, and their behaviours for overcoming stress. Methods: This study was composed of undergraduate nursing students. Following the Turkish adaptation of perceived stress scale, bio-psycho-social response, and coping behaviours of stress scales, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was used for validity, and consistency analysis was used for reliability. Results: Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin measures of the perceived stress scale, biopsycho- social response, and coping behaviours of stress scales were determined as 0.94, 0.93, and 0.87, respectively. For perceived stress scale, biopsycho- social response, and coping behaviours of stress scales, chi-square values obtained by Bartlett's test were significant. While Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficients of the perceived stress scale and bio-psycho-social response ranged from 0.67-0.93, Cronbach's alpha coefficients of the two subdimensions of the Scale Regarding Behavior for Overcoming Stress were found as 0.04-0.40. Conclusion: Turkish adaptations of perceived stress scale, bio-psycho-social response, and coping behaviours of stress scales are valid and reliable tools, which may be used to determine the stress encountered by undergraduate nursing students during clinical practices, their response against stress, and the means by which they overcome it.

Okuyucularının her gün, dünyadan ve yaşadıkları coğrafyadan haberdar olmalarını sağlayan gazeteler, sundukları haber ve enformasyonun içeriği kadar bu içeriğin nasıl sunacaklarıyla da ilgilidirler. Gazetedeki haberlerin, fotoğrafların veya bilgilerin okuyucunun, söz konusu bilgiyi kolayca okuyabileceği ve anlayabileceği bir şekilde yerleştirilmesi, haberin okunma olasılığını da kuşkusuz artıracaktır. Özellikle, bilgisayar teknolojisinin gazete mizanpajında kullanılmaya başlamasından sonra gazeteler, tasarımlarıyla da birbiriyle yarışır hale gelmeye başlamışlardır. Gazeteler neredeyse, sadece tasarımlarıyla bile birbirlerinden ayırt edilebilmektedirler. Gazete tasarımının böylesi önem kazanmaya başladığı bir dönemde, bu alanda yapılacak araştırmaların sayısının da artacağı beklenmektedir. Bu makalede, gazete tasarımında uygulanan temel ilke ve prensipler araştırılmaya çalışılmıştır. Bu ilke ve prensipler, tasarımda katı bir doktrin olarak değil, alanda çalışan ve alanı araştıran kişilerin deneyim ve bilgilerinden yola çıkılarak sunulmuştur. Makalede ayrıca, gazete tasarımında kullanılan materyallerin (başlık, foto, gövde metni gibi) nasıl yerleştirileceğiyle de ilgili hususlar da ele alınmıştır.

Koklama, tatma, işitme, dokunma ve görme gibi insanın sahip olduğu 5 duyunun mümkün olduğukadar çoğuna seslenen markalar, hedef kitlelerine deneyimleyecekleri geniş bir alan yaratmaktave marka ile yakın temas kurulmasını sağlayarak, kurum hatta marka kimliklerini hedefkitlelerin akıllarında daha net ve sağlam olarak yerleştirebilmektedirler. Duyusal markalama olaraktanımlanan bu yeni yaklaşımın etkisini görmüş olan birçok işletme markalarına özgü koku,dokunma ve görsel kimliklerin yanı sıra ürünlerini tanımlayan ses kimliklerini de özel olarak tasarlatmaktave pazarlama uygulamalarında kimlik çalışmaları içine bu konuları da dahil etmektedirler.Birçok duyuya hitap eden mesajların etkisinin ve gücünün daha fazla olduğu yargısındanhareketle biçimlendirilen, markalama konusunda duyular ile kurulacak duygusal bağın öneminidile getiren bir yaklaşım olarak “Aşkla Yaratılan Markalar (Lovemarks)” anlayışı, Saatchi& SaatchiReklam Ajansı'nın yaratıcı direktörü olan Kevin Roberts'ın ortaya attığı bir stratejik bakışaçısıdır. Bu çalışmada söz konusu yaklaşım temelinde, duyuların özellikle kurumsal markalamaüzerindeki etkisi ve duyusal pazarlama olgusu, markaların örnek uygulamaları bağlamında aktarılmaktadır.
