Aim: This study aimed to determine the correlation between spousal support, postpartum depression (PPD), and breastfeeding self-efficacy (BSES) in the postpartum period.Methods: This descriptive correlational study was performed on 300 postpartum women. Data collected with using The Perceived Spousal Support among Women in Early Postpartum Period Scale (PSSAWEPP), The Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS) and Postpartum Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form (BSES-SF).Results: There was a negative correlation between women's perceived level of spousal support and their postpartum depression (PPD) status (p, Giriş: Bu çalışmada doğum sonu dönemde dönemde eş desteği, postpartum depresyon ve emzirme öz-yeterliliği arasındaki ilişkinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.Gereç ve Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı korelasyonel tipte planlanan bu çalışma postpartum dönemdeki 300 kadın ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Veriler “Doğum Sonu Erken Dönemde Eş Destek Ölçeği (PSSAWEPP)”, “Edinburgh Postpartum Depresyon Ölçeği (EPDS)” ve “Postpartum Emzirme Öz-Yeterlilik Ölçeği-Kısa Formu (BSES-SF)” kullanılarak toplanmıştır.Bulgular: Kadınların algıladıkları eş desteği düzeyi ile doğum sonrası depresyon (PPD) durumları arasında negatif bir ilişki vardır (p

The progress in technological and scientific fields in the 20th century has transformed and shaped the lives of people remarkably. In healthcare, technology can be described as the application of the methods, systems, medicines, devices, vaccines and organized information to improve the quality of life by providing solutions for the needs of both professionals and patients. Besides its potential of reducing fragmentation and costs while increasing the safety, utilization of technology can be considered as the key to achieving a safe, sustainable, and person-centered healthcare environment. Virtual Reality (VR) is a computer-generated three-dimensional interactive environment that stimulates multiple sensory methods. Considering the fact that VR is one of the crucial technological trends of this century, it has the potential of affecting the health industry until 2025 extremely. It is a real-time graphic simulation that includes visual, auditory, and tactile experiences. In the field of health, VR is used for multiple purposes as training of medical students for critical surgeries, education of nursing candidates, and treatment of some diseases. As essential members of the healthcare team, nurses should be a strict follower of the rapidly evolving technology to provide efficient and quality care. The utilization of VR in nursing education has the advantage of decreasing faulty interventions, which enhances patient safety as well as the quality of the healthcare services in the future.

English language is now the most commonly used lingua franca all over the world and has become an international language. Consequently, learning English is an important objective in the education system in every country as well as the EU member countries. This status of English language results in some fundamental changes in the foreign language education and foreign language teacher education policies of almost every country globally. This paper addresses the question whether the European Profile for language teacher education affects the foreign language teacher education policies and reforms in Turkey. The study also focuses on the general European profile for foreign language teacher education on Turkey contexts as well as the influence of the European profile for language teacher education on the foreign language teacher education reforms in Turkey. Keywords: English language, foreign language education, language teacher education profile in Europe, language teacher education reform in Turkey

Translation studies and literary studies more broadly are increasingly informed by materialities-based approaches, yet remain heavily invested in hermeneutic sense. This essay critiques the...

Power transmitted from the engine to the final drive where useful work is applied through a system consisting of a gearbox, clutch, drive shaft and a differential in the rear-wheel-drive automobiles. It is well-known that the steel drive shaft is usually manufactured in two pieces to increase the fundamental bending natural frequency to ensure safe operation conditions. In this work, hybrid one-piece propeller shafts composed of carbon/epoxy and glass/epoxy composites have been designed for a rear wheel drive automobile satisfying three design specifications, such as static torque transmission capability, torsional buckling and the fundamental natural bending frequency. Hybridization of carbon and glass fibers is being studied to optimize the cost/performance requirements. Composites shaft materials with various fiber orientation angles and stacking sequences are being fabricated and analyzed using finite element analysis (FEA).

Ġnceleme alani, Colakli (ELAZIĞ) cevresinde yaklaĢik 130 km2’lik bir alani kapsamaktadir. CaliĢma alaninda yaĢlidan gence dogru Ust Kretase yaĢli Elazig Magmatitleri, Orta Eosen-Ust Oligosen yaĢli Kirkgecit Formasyonu, Ust Miyosen-Alt Pliyosen yaĢli Karabakir Formasyonu ve Pliyo-Kuvaterner yaĢli Palu Formasyonu yuzeylemektedir. Elazig Magmatitleri inceleme alaninda granit, granodiyorit, tonalit, diyorit ve kuvars diyorit gibi derinlik; mikrodiyorit ve aplit gibi yari derinlik kayaclariyla temsil olunmaktadir. Elazig Magmatitleri’ni uyumsuz olarak orten Kirkgecit Formasyonu; kumtaĢi ve marnlardan meydana gelmiĢtir. Kendisinden yaĢli birimleri uyumsuz olarak orten Karabakir Formasyonu, inceleme alaninda bazaltlardan oluĢmaktadir. Karasal konglomeralardan meydana gelen Palu Formasyonu ise caliĢma alaninin en genc birimidir. CaliĢma alanindaki asidik bileĢimli kayaclarda yapilan analiz sonuclarina gore; bu kayaclar magmatik seri olarak subalkalen karakterli ve I-tipi granitoyid ozelliginde olup, tektonik olarak ise, volkanik yay granitoyidleri (VAG) ve carpiĢmayla eĢ yaĢli granitoyidleri (Syn-COLG) alaninda yer almaktadir. Elazig Magmatitleri’ne ait olan Colakli (Elazig) cevresi plutonik kayaclari ada yaylarinda oluĢmuĢ yay magmatizmasi urunudurler.

This essay argues for the bodily, material, and performative dimensions of translation in Turkish-German author Emine Sevgi Ozdamar’s 2003 novel Strange Stars Stare to Earth , a semi-autobiographical work about a young Turkish actress who comes to Germany in 1976 in order to work at the People’s Theater in East Berlin. Ozdamar’s text continually renegotiates the spatial, monetary, linguistic, and scriptorial contours of divided Berlin in playful engagement with the concepts of exchange, equivalence, and translation. In this literary project, translation emerges not only as a semantic phenomenon, but as inseparable from the materiality, corporeality, and performativity of language as realized in writing. In addition, translation does not operate on a structure of equivalence but on unexpected transformations and transpositions of written material. Using Leslie A. Adelson’s concepts of Turkish-German “literature of migration” and “touching tales,” Venkat Mani’s and Azade Seyhan’s analyses of memory work in Ozdamar, as well as Yasemin Yildiz’s consideration of literal translation and trauma, this study draws critical attention to the productive dimensions of textual elements on the move rather than the recuperation of lost histories. Additionally, it places at its core a shift from translation as the reproduction of something familiar to the creation of something new.
