Psikolojik danışmanların işyeri arkadaşlığının yordayıcısı olarak iş doyumu ve işyeri mutluluğu

Workplace friendship is a unique type of relationship across all organizational levels between employees in the same or different departments and is an important factor in professional life. It has been suggested that school counselors need workplace friends, who are an important source of social support, to overcome the stress associated with the corporate environment and job conditions. Furthermore, workplace friendship fulfills several positive functions for both employees and institutions. Thus, the current study's first aim is to investigate psychological counselors' perceptions about workplace friendship based on various variables. The second aim is to determine the predictive role of job satisfaction and workplace well-being perceptions of psychological counselors in workplace friendship. The study sample included 339 school counselors, 232 female (68.4%) and 107 (31.6%) male and were in different provinces in Turkey. The study data were collected with the Workplace Friendship Scale, the Job Satisfaction Scale, the Workplace Well-Being Scale, and a Personal Demographics Form. T-test, ANOVA, and multiple regression analysis were employed to analyze the study data. The findings revealed significant correlations between workplace well-being, job satisfaction, and workplace friendship. Workplace well-being and job satisfaction explained 27% of the variation in workplace friendship. The study findings contributed to determining the factors that affect workplace relations of psychological counselors.İşyeri arkadaşlığı, benzer ya da farklı birimlerde çalışanlar arasında, kurumun her düzeyinde meydana gelen benzersiz bir ilişki türüdür ve iş yaşamında önemli bir konudur. Okul psikolojik danışmanlarının kurumsal ve işle ilgili yaşamış oldukları stresin üstesinden gelmelerinde önemli bir sosyal destek kaynağı olan işyeri arkadaşlarına ihtiyaç duydukları düşünülmektedir. Ayrıca hem çalışanlar hem de kurumlar için işyeri arkadaşlığının birçok olumlu işlevi bulunmaktadır. Bu bilgiler ışığında bu araştırmanın ilk amacı, psikolojik danışmanlarının işyeri arkadaşlık algılarının çeşitli değişkenlere göre incelenmesidir. İkinci amacı ise psikolojik danışmanların iş doyumu ve işyeri mutluluk algılarının, işyeri arkadaşlığını yordayıcı rolünü incelemektir. Araştırmanın örneklemini Türkiye’nin farklı illerinde çalışan, 232’si kadın (%68.4), 107’si erkek (%31.6) olmak üzere toplam 339 okul psikolojik danışmanı oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmanın verileri, İşyeri Arkadaşlığı Ölçeği, İş Doyum Ölçeği, İşyeri Mutluluğu Ölçeği ve Kişisel Bilgi Formu aracılığı ile toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde t testi, ANOVA ve çoklu regresyon analizi kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgulara göre işyeri mutluluğu ile iş doyumu değişkenleri, işyeri arkadaşlığı ile anlamlı bir ilişki sergilemiştir. İşyeri mutluluğu ile iş doyumu işyeri arkadaşlığı puanlarındaki değişimin %27’sini açıklamaktadır. Bu çalışmadan elde edilen bulgular psikolojik danışmanların işyeri ilişkilerini etkileyen faktörlerin anlaşılmasına katkı sunmaktadır

Host-sensitized phosphorescence of Mn4+, Eu3+, and Yb3+ in MgAl2Si2O8

Mn4+ doped and Eu3+, Yb3+ co-doped MgAl2 Si2O8-based phosphors were prepared by conventional solid state reaction at 1,300 C. They were characterized by thermogravimetry, differential thermal analysis, X-ray powder diffraction, photoluminescence, and scanning electron microscopy. The luminescence mechanism of the phosphors, which showed broad red emission bands in the range of 600–715 nm and had a different maximum intensity when activated by UV illumination, was discussed. Such a red emission can be attributed to the intrinsic 2E + 4A2 transitions of Mn4+

Oxide ionic conductivity properties of binary δ-(Bi2O3)1 - x (Yb2O3) x system

In this study, after doping ytterbium oxide (Yb2O3) to a-bismuth trioxide (a-Bi2O3) in the range of 9% n 20% in a series of different mole ratios, heat treatment was performed by applying a cascade temperature rise in the range of 700–790 C for 48 hours and new phases were obtained in the (Bi2O3)1 x(Yb2O3)x system. After 24 hours of heat treatment at 700 C and 750 C and 48 hours of heat treatment at 790 C, mixtures containing 9–20 mol% Yb2O3 formed a face-centered cubic phase. With the help of X-ray diffraction (XRD), the crystal systems and lattice parameters of the solid solutions were obtained and their characterization was carried out. The surfaces of the solid solutions were detected by a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Thermal measurements were made by using a simultaneous DTA/TGA (differential thermal analysis/thermogravimetric analysis) system. The total conductivity (sT) in the d-Bi2O3 doped with Yb2O3 system was measured using the four-probe DC method

1-Amino-5-(4-methyl­benzo­yl)-4-(4-methyl­phen­yl)pyrimidin-2(1H)-one

In the title compound, C19H17N3O2, the dihedral angles between the pyrimidine ring and the two benzene rings are 34.87 (12) (for the directly-bonded ring) and 69.57 (12)°. An intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond occurs. The crystal packing features inter­molecular N–H⋯O hydrogen bonds

The hepatoprotective effects of Hypericum perforatum L. on hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats

Little is known about the effective role of Hypericum perforatum on hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats. Hence, albino rats were subjected to 45 min of hepatic ischemia followed by 60 min of reperfusion period. Hypericum perforatum extract (HPE) at the dose of 50 mg/kg body weight (HPE50) was intraperitonally injected as a single dose, 15 min prior to ischemia. Rats were sacrificed at the end of reperfusion period and then, biochemical investigations were made in serum and liver tissue. Liver tissue homogenates were used for the measurement of malondialdehyde (MDA), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) levels. At the same time alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were assayed in serum samples and compared statistically. While the ALT, AST, LDH activities and MDA levels were significantly increased, CAT and GPx activities significantly decreased in only I/R-induced control rats compared to normal control rats (p < 0.05). Treatment with HPE50 significantly decreased the ALT, AST, LDH activities and MDA levels, and markedly increased activities of CAT and GPx in tissue homogenates compared to I/R-induced rats without treatment-control group (p < 0.05). In oxidative stress generated by hepatic ischemia-reperfusion, H. perforatum L. as an antioxidant agent contributes an alteration in the delicate balance between the scavenging capacity of antioxidant defence systems and free radicals in favour of the antioxidant defence systems in the body

Determination of macro and trace element levels of serum, tears, saliva, and hair samples in kilis goats with icp-ms

This study is focused on the evaluation of macro and trace elements concentration including sodium (Na), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), selenium (Se), nickel (Ni), titanium (Ti), manganese (Mn), cobalt (Co), and chromium (Cr) of the serum, saliva, tears, and hair samples in Kilis goats. The study involved 33 goats without clinical signs of disease. Individual serum, saliva, tears, and hair samples from each goat were collected for element quantifications through the inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) method after acid digestion in a microwave system. Element concentrations varied and depended on the sample type. The most predominant element in serum and saliva samples was Na (3559±55.2 and 3265±53.6 mg/L, respectively), followed by K>Ca>Mg. Potassium was the most abundant element analyzed in tears and hair samples (3506±305 and 4664±100.5 mg/L, respectively). The major trace element was Fe in all sample types except hair samples. Nickel was detected only in serum samples (83.9±6.35 μg/L) and Mn was detected only in hair samples (12903±3142 μg/L). In all samples, Co was below the detection limit. There was a significant correlation of some elements between serum and hair (Na, K, Mg, Cu), tears and hair (K, Mg, Fe), serum and tears (K) samples. Trace elements concentration did not pose a risk for deficiency or excess. It was concluded that tears and saliva are potential alternative materials for element analysis and simultaneous tears, saliva, and hair along with serum could be useful in predicting the inorganic metabolic status of goats
