The Effect of Sports Science Students’ Social Media Addictions on Redundant Purchasing Behavior

The aim of this research is to determine the causes of redundant purchasing behavior of university students and the effects of social media usage on redundant purchasing behavior. Quantitative research method is used in the research and relational screening model is preferred. "Social media addiction" and "sustainable consumption behavior scale" were used in the research. The research group consists of 221 men and 181 women in total, 402 students who studying at Ankara University Faculty of Sport Sciences. In the research, the pre-control of the data was provided and the distribution of normality was examined primarily. From the parametric tests to the data that appear to provide normal distribution; t-Test, One-Way Anova and Correlation tests were applied. According to the findings, it was found that women had a high redundant purchase behavior compared to men. It has been determined that the use of credit cards increases redundant purchases in students and affects daily life. It was observed that unrestrained shopping perception is high among students who are not licensed athletes. As the high income students' redundant purchasing behavior is high, as the time spent on social media increases, social media addiction and redundant purchasing behavior also increase. As a conclusion, it is observed that consumption behaviors are closely related to social media addiction and sustainable consumption behaviors. The suggestions of the findings obtained were tried to be given in the research, including future research

Investigation of Psycho-Social Variables Affecting the Professional Life of Persons after the Coaching Education

The aim of this research is to examine the effects of the coaches’ emotional labor behavior on emotional burnout and turnover intention. The research group consists of 201 coaches actively working in various sports centers in Ankara province. Personal information form consisting of demographic questions, “Emotional Labor Scale”, “Burnout Scale” and “Turnover Intention Scale” were used as data collection tools. In the research, after the normality test; Spearman Correlation and Multiple Regression analysis were performed on the data. The demographic information of the group participating in the study is given as a percentage table. According to the findings, as the knowledge and skill of the coach increases, emotional burnout, surface acting and turnover intention show decrease. At the same time, the increase of Professional success of the coaches causes emotional burnout, desensitization, surface acting and the turnover intention. It has been observed that the role of coaches, whose professional achievements have increased, has increased natural acting levels, but it has been determined that the role of deep acting has no effect on the turnover intention. As a conclusion, it was observed that burnout and turnover intention may decrease as the level of knowledge and skill increases in coaches. In addition, it was determined that surface acting behavior was not preferred by experienced coaches and mostly natural emotions were used

Investigation of Attitudes of University Students towards Turkish Language Course and Distance Education

Turkish language course in Turkish higher education is compulsory for all programs. Being taught for two semesters, this course has started to be given in many universities through distance education in recent years. This new situation brings about the problem as to whether there is a relationship between attitude towards distance education and attitude towards Turkish language lesson. It was aimed in this study to examine and compare the attitudes of university students who take Turkish Language courses through distance education towards this course and distance education system in terms of various variables. In this descriptive research, a survey model was used to obtain data. The study group consists of the 181 freshmen attending a state university located in the south of Turkey and taking Turkish language lessons in the 2018-2019 academic year. Data were collected with attitude scales whose validity and reliability was tested. Difference tests between means were performed in data analysis. It was concluded in the study that the attitude of undergraduate freshman students towards Turkish Language course and distance education is above average, but not very high. It can also be foreseen according to findings of this study that university students' attitudes towards Turkish language course will improve as their attitudes towards distance education increase

The Effect of the Web Based Digital Story Applications on the Digital Literacy Levels of Turkish Teacher Candidates

The technological developments that have directed 21st century skills have brought new content and dimension to narrative by integrating story narration, one of the earliest verbal narrative skills of mankind, with digital technology. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of web-based digital story preparation on the literacy self-efficacy perceptions of Turkish teacher candidates in the digital media using pre-test, posttest, experimental-control group and semi-experimental design. A total of 60 teacher candidates, including 30 experimental groups and 30 control groups attending to the Teaching Principles and Methods Course in Mersin University Education Faculty Turkish Education Department participated in the study in 2016-2017 academic year. The research data were collected by the "Digital Media-Oriented Literacy Self-efficacy Scale" developed by the researchers. As a result of the study, Digital Media-Oriented Literacy Self-efficacy levels were observed to increased in both groups. However, a statistically significant difference was found only between pre-test and post-test scores of the self-efficacy perceptions of the Turkish teacher candidates who prepared a web-based digital story in the cooperative learning approach. It is suggested regarding the results of the study that in other studies, digital storytelling approach can be utilized by taking into consideration the content of both field and cultural courses, and also that researchers can investigate the effects of digital storytelling in terms of various variables

The evaluation of physical activity and physical fitness levels of the adolescents staying in the orphanage

In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the physical activity and physical fitness levels of the adolescents who have stayed in the orphanage, to comment on the current situation of the playfields in which adolescents have participated the sport and recreational activities and to support the legislative regulations about the administration of the orphanages. The sample of the study was 83 adolescents (n=32 girls, n=51 boys and age=15.67±1.27) from Konya Orphanage. The physical activity levels of the subjects were evaluated by Physical Activity Questionnaire for Children (CFAO) adapted to Turkish from the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Older Children (PAQ-C) developed by Crocker et al (1997). Fitnessgram Test Battery was also used for the physical fitness levels of the subjects. According to gender, it was seen that there were some statistically significant differences in favor of boys in the anthropometric and physiological features (height, weight, BMI, VO2max). As it was understood that there were no significant differences in the push-up and sit-up test scores between the boys and girls, there were significant differences in the flexibility test scores in favor of girls. According to age and gender, 18,1% (n=15) of the subjects took part in the Needs Improvement-Health Risk (NI-HR), 19,3% (n=16) of them took part in the Needs Improvement (NI), 62,7% (n=52) of them took part in the Healthy Fitness Zone (HFZ) in aerobic capacity parameter (VO2max ml/kg/min); besides in Body Mass Index (BMI) parameter 13,3% (n=11) of the subjects took part in the Needs Improvement-Health Risk (NI-HR), 15,7% (n=13) of them took part in the Needs Improvement (NI), 71,1% (n=59) of them took part in the Healthy Fitness Zone (HFZ). It was also understood that 53% (n=44) of the subjects were inactive, 32,5% (n=27) of them were mid-active, 14,5% (n=12) of them were active. As a conclusion, it was seen that the adolescents who participated in the study were healthy according to the body composition, aerobic capacity and physical fitness standards determined by The Cooper Institute (2010). However, according to the classification which was applied in view of the reference values by Tanır (2013), it was concluded that most of the adolescents were inactive or mid-active in terms of physical activity. Even though the playfields in the orphanages were efficient, it has been thought that the legislative regulations for the reformation and diversification of the current playfields and organizing the recreational activities will not only support the maintenance and improvement of the current physical fitness levels of adolescents and also cause to enhancement in their physical activity levels

Use of PET in Head and Neck Cancers

Head and neck cancer imaging is especially necessary for staging. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are the techniques frequently used for this purpose. These methods are valuable for displaying detailed anatomical structures; however, they may be inadequate for making the distinction between recurrence, residual tumor, fibrosis, and normal tissues with an altered anatomy after treatments such as surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy and for the detection of metastases. From this point, positron emission tomography may be a promising imaging method. Scanning the entire body with a single method is an important advantage of positron emission tomography. It may be useful in the detection of synchronous tumors, which are a serious problem in head and neck cancers. Positron emission tomography may provide additional contribution for neck metastases, where the primary site is unknown and is undetectable by other imaging techniques

Ekmeklik ve Makarnalık Buğdaylara Uygulanan Çinko Dozlarının Kadmiyum Alımına Etkisi

Bu çalışmanın amacı, yüksek Cd konsantrasyonuna sahip toprağa çinko (Zn) uygulamaları ile ekmeklik ve makarnalık buğdayın Cd alımına olan etkisini araştırmaktır. Çalışma sera koşullarında Zn noksanlığına sahip kireç içeriği yüksek bir toprakta tesadüf blokları deneme desenine göre dört tekerrürlü olarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Denemede Cd uygulamaları 0 (Cd 0) ve 10 (Cd10) mg kg-1 Cd dozlarında uygulanmıştır. Çinko uygulamaları ise topraktan 0 (Zn 0) ve 10 (Zn 10) mg kg-1 Zn ile toprak + yapraktan (Zn10+3Y; Zn10+8Y) olacak şekilde yapılmıştır. Yapraktan Zn uygulamalarına sapa kalkma döneminde başlanmış ve haftada 1 defa olmak üzere 3 ve 8 defa yapraktan %0,1 dozunda ZnSO4.7H2O uygulaması yapılmıştır. Bitkiler tane olgunluk döneminde hasat edilmiş ve tanelerde Zn ve Cd konsantrasyonları belirlenmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlardan topraktan ve toprak+yapraktan Zn uygulamaları ile ekmeklik ve makarnalık buğdayların tane Zn konsantrasyonlarında önemli artışların olduğu görülmüştür. Toprağa Cd uygulaması ile Karacadağ çeşidine göre Harran-95 çeşidinin tanesinde daha fazla Cd birikimi olduğu görülmüştür. Karacadağ çeşidinin kontrol koşullarında 31 μg kg-1 olan Cd konsantrasyonu, Cd 10 koşullarında 3.616 μg kg-1’e, Harran çeşidinin ise 70 μg kg-1 tane Cd konsantrasyonu Cd10 koşullarında 8.434 μg kg-1’e yükseldiği görülmüştür. Bununla birlikte, toprak, toprak + yapraktan Zn uygulamaları, makarnalık buğday çeşitlerinin tane Cd konsantrasyonlarını önemli ölçüde azaltmıştır. Haran-95 çeşidinin Cd 10 koşullarında 8.434 μg kg-1 olan tane Cd konsantrasyonu, Zn10 koşullarında 6.464 μg kg-1’a, Zn10+3Y koşullarında 7.932 μg kg-1’a, Zn10+8Y koşullarında ise 6.745 μg kg-1’a düşmüştür. Sonuçlardan makarnalık buğday çeşidinin ekmeklik buğday çeşidine göre topraktan daha fazla Cd aldığı görülmüştür. Bunun yanında topraktan ve yapraktan Zn uygulamaları ile makarnalık buğday çeşidinin Cd alımında daha fazla azalma olduğu görülmüştür

Effects of Different Forms and Doses of Sulphur Application on Wheat

Deficiency of sulphur (S) is an important limiting factor of plant growth for sustainable agricultural production. The decline in sulphur dioxide emission, decrease in S-containing fertilizer consumption due to the high cost of S-fertilizers, breeding of new high yielding species are the well known causes of S-deficiency. A greenhouse experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of several doses of K2SO4-S, CaSO4-S and elemental-S applied on growth, shoot dry matter yield, S and N concentrations of wheat cultivar. The experiments were conducted in three soils differed from available S concentrations. Effects of different S-treatments (0, 25, 50 and 100 mg S kg-1) and S-forms had significant effects on shoot dry matter yields of plants. Sulphur from different S-sources did not increase shoot S-concentrations in Eskisehir and Konya soils, but increase was significant obtained in the Harran soil. Shoot S-concentration in Harran soil for zero K2SO4 treatment was 0.09%, the values were 0.22, 0.26 and 0.27% respectively for 25, 50 and 100 mg kg-1 treatments. The results indicated significant effects of S-treatments on plant growth and yield mostly based on soil properties, especially the available S-level
