Organizational trust perceptions of employees: A study on university employees
Bu çalışma, Gazi Üniversitesi, Eğitim Bilimleri Enstitü’sünde tamamlanan “Devlet ve Vakıf Üniversitlerinde Çalışan Personelin Örgütsel Güven Algıları: Ankara İli Örneği” başlıklı yüksek lisans tez çalışmasından üretilmiştir.Bu çalışmanın amacı devlet ve vakıf üniversitelerinde görev yapan idari işgörenlerin örgütsel güven düzeylerini belirlemek ve bu düzeylerin demografik değişkenlere göre farklılığını ortaya koymaktır. Araştırmanın örneklemini 772 idari hizmet veren işgören oluşturmaktadır. Araştırma bulguları; frekans, t testi ve tek yönlü varyans analizi kullanılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgulara göre, çalışılan üniversite türüne göre, örgütsel güveni oluşturan tüm alt boyutlarda vakıf üniversitelerinde çalışan idari işgörenlerin ortalama puanlarının daha yüksek olduğu ve istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık yarattığı tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca katılımcıların medeni durum değişkeni işgörenlerin örgütsel güven algılarında farklılaşmaya sebep olmazken, gelir durumu değişkeninin farklılaşmaya sebep olduğu belirlenmiştir. Araştırmada kadın, ilköğretim mezunu ve göreve yeni başlayan işgörenlerin lehine, yöneticiye güven ile örgütün kendine güven boyutlarında farklılık olduğu belirlenmiştir. Öte yandan örgütün kendine güven boyutunda yaş, görev yapılan birim değişkenlerinde farklılık ortaya çıkmıştır. Statü değişkenine göre ise sadece yöneticiye güven boyutunda istatistiksel açıdan anlamlı bir farklılık saptanmıştır.The purpose of this study is to determine the level of organizational trust of the administrative employee at state and foundation universities and to show whether these levels differ according to demographic variables. The sample of the study is composed of 772 administrative staff. The research findings were evaluated using frequency, t test and one way ANOVA. As a result of the research, according to university type, it is found that the mean scores of administrative personnel working in foundation universities are higher at all sub dimensions forming the organizational trust and create statistically significant difference. Also, the fact that while the marital status variable of the participants does not cause differentiation in organizational trust perceptions of the personnel, income status causes differentiation is determined. Significant difference at director trust dimension and organization’s self reliability dimension of the woman, primary school graduate and new personnel is determined. On the other side, a significant difference has arisen in age, work unit variables at organization’s self reliability dimension. According to status variance, on the other hand, a statistically significant difference is found only at director trust aspect
Comparison of the efficacy of broad-band targeted UVB phototherapy and topical psoralen with targeted UVA phototherapy in localized vitiligo
Aim of the study is to compare efficacy of targeted broad-band UVB phototherapy
and topical psoralen with targeted UVA phototherapy treatments in localized vitiligo for 3 months prospectively. The cases with symmetrical vitiligo lesions were
included in the study. Broad-band targeted UVB was applied on one side and
targeted UVA phototherapy with topical psoralen on the other side. Twenty-two
patients who were diagnosed with localized vitiligo were enrolled in this study.
These cases consisted of 6 (27.3%) females and 16 (72.7%) males aging between
17 and 69 (34.22 ± 14.15). Fifty-four lesions (27 left, 27 right) were compared for
treatments. After the first month of the treatments, the sides of the lesions were
compared in order to evaluate improvement. Percentages of success were 25% for
targeted broad-band UVB microphototherapy and 75% for topical psoralen with
targeted UVA microphototherapy. When the two treatment methods were com pared with each other, a significant difference was found in terms of treatment
response (P = .017). At the end of the third month, the success rates were 37.5%
for targeted broad-band UVB microphototherapy and 62.5% for topical psoralen
with targeted UVA microphototherapy, however a statistically significant differ ence was not determined between the two treatments (P > .05). Both targeted
broad-band UVB phototherapy and topical psoralen with targeted UVA phototherapy provided repigmentation for localized vitiligo at the end of the third month.
Our investigation shows that both treatments are safe and they provide
repigmentation with a limited response
Psychometric properties of sleep quality scale and sleep variables questionnaire in Turkish student sample
Sleep is a physiological need that affects physical and mental performances. However, the number of individuals who experience problems related directly or indirectly with sleep is increasing in many countries. Therefore, it is important to have a short, reliable and valid measure to assess both sleep quality and sleep related variables in school-age children. This study aims to carry out the validity and reliability studies for the Sleep Quality Scale and Sleep Variables Questionnaire (SQS-SVQ) used to determine sleep quality, parental control, total sleep time, mid-point of sleep and sleep efficiency and to adapt it into Turkish. The SQS-SVQ consists of seven scale items to measure sleep quality and eight questionnaire items. The validity and reliability studies of the instrument were carried out on data acquired from 4th-8th graders. Factorial validity for SQS and criterion related validity analyses were carried out for the validity of the SQS-SVQ and correlations ranged from 0.51 to 0.73. These analysis results put forth that the scale is a valid measurement tool. Internal consistency coefficient of the SQS was 0.72 and test-retest correlations of the SQS-SVQ ranged from 0.67 to 0.88. These acquired results indicated that the scale is reliable. Meanwhile, gender measurement invariance was tested for SQS and results indicated that gender measurement invariance was established. These results have shown that the SQS-SVQ can be used in social researches and especially in educational studies
Increased oxidative stress is associated with insulin resistance and infertility in polycystic ovary syndrome
Objectives: The present study aims to investigate the role of oxidant-antioxidant status in young women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).Material and methods: Seventy-one women with PCOS and 53 healthy controls are compared in aspect of demographic characteristics, biochemical data, hormones, and oxidant-antioxidant status.Results: The PCOS group had significantly lower zinc, higher malondialdehyde and gluthathione peroxidase and lower serum catalase levels than the control group (p = 0.016, p < 0.001, p = 0.043 and p = 0.025 respectively). The PCOS patients with IR had significantly higher malondialdehyde, lower catalase and serum zinc levels than the PCOS patients without IR (p = 0.015, p = 0.010, p = 0.001 respectively). The infertile PCOS patients had significantly higher malondialdehyde, lower catalase and serum zinc levels than the fertile PCOS patients (p = 0.022, p = 0.045,p = 0.001 respectively). There was a statistically significant and positive correlation between HOMA-IR and malondialdehyde values (r = 0.523, p = 0.001), between HOMA-IR and glutathione peroxidase values (r = 0.468, p = 0.001) and between HOMA-IR and zinc values (r = 0.601, p = 0.001). There was a statistically significant and negative correlation between HOMA-IR and catalase values (r = –0.493, p = 0.001).Conclusions: The patients with PCOS are under oxidative stress and this oxidative stress seems to be the highest in patients with IR and with infertility. Despite the prominent increase in the oxidative stress, there was a variation in the antioxidant response
