Traditional Folklore Forms in Temasa-I Dunya Ve Cefakar U Cefakes
(Milli Folklor Dergisi, 2016) Şişmanoğlu Şimşek, Şehnaz
Temasa-i Dunya ve Cefakar u Cefakes written by Evangelinos Misailidis in 1871-1872 has widely been considered to be an adaptation of the Greek novel O Polipathis (1839) and its originality has not been adequately emphasized in past studies. This article suggests that Temasa-i Dunya should be considered an original novel since it incorporates traditional folklore forms peculiar to Ottoman literature which are absent in Polipathis. This study first of all describes the variety and the origins of the traditional folklore forms in Temasa-i Dunya and delineates the literary tools by the help of which they were included in the text. Furthermore it analyzes how these elements affect the narrative discourse and the author's purposes in employing them. The analysis demonstrates that in Temasa-i Dunya oral and print culture materials of both Muslim and non-Muslim origins are embedded in the text primarily in the form of narrative digressions and digressions from the frame story. These digressions carry the marks of the traditional story teller both in terms of functionality and at the discursive level. In other words Misailidis' narrator being an active subject similar to the story teller in the oral culture chooses and manipulates the appropriate traditional story in accordance with the messages he conveys to the Karamanli readership. It can also be said that unrealistic features of traditional stories are eliminated and the stories are presented in a realistic style and content. Moreover the aforementioned narratives help to overcome the limited perspective of the first person narrative and to portray a variety of experiences. Temasa-i Dunya also presents a folkloric panorama of 19th century Istanbul through numerous idioms and proverbs.

Judgments of Capability and Conformity as Distinct Forms of Social Judgments, and the Way They Interact To Shape Evaluator Decisions
(Wiley, 2020) Topaler, Başak; Küp, Eyuep Tolunay
Objective Social judgments are evaluators' opinions about the social properties of a set of actors. Different types of judgments rendered by the evaluators and potential interactions between them may have major consequences for the actors who are evaluated. In this article, we distinguish between judgments of capability and conformity, and examine their concurrent and interdependent effects on evaluator impressions. Methods We investigate these dynamics in the context of authors competing for the best paper award at the Academy of Management (AoM) conference. Results Findings of our empirical analyses demonstrate interdependent effects of capability and conformity judgments on the committee members' decisions. We demonstrate that evaluators expect greater conformity to their ideal template from more capable actors who have greater potential to contribute to these ideals. Conclusion Our study advances the literature on social judgments by showing that congruence (or incongruence) among distinct types of judgment shape evaluators' decisions, beyond their independent effects.

Determinants of Corporate Cash Holdings: Firm Level Evidence From Emerging Markets
(Springer, 2017) Akben Selçuk, Elif; Altiok-Yilmaz, Ayse
The objective of this chapter is to investigate the factors affecting corporate cash holdings in five emerging markets namely Brazil Indonesia Mexico Russia and Turkey. The sample consists of 1991 firms listed on the major stock exchange of their countries and covers the period between 2009 and 2015. The model is estimated by Arellano–Bond dynamic generalized method of moments. Results show that firms which use higher leverage in their capital structure hold more cash. More profitable firms are shown to have higher levels of cash holdings. Another variable which has a positive effect on the level of cash holdings in any given period is the level of cash holdings in the previous period as shown by the positive and significant coefficient of the lagged dependent variable in the model. Liquidity and firm size have a negative and statistically significant impact on the level of corporate cash holdings. Firms with higher level of capital expenditures are also shown to hold less cash. Finally growth opportunities do not have a significant impact on the level of cash holdings for the firms in the emerging markets analyzed. © Springer International Publishing AG 2017.

Customer Participation Variation and Its Impact on Customer Service Performance: Underlying Process and Boundary Condition
(Sage Publications, 2020) Mengüç, Bülent; Auh, Seigyoung; Wang, Fatima
Drawing on the customer participation (CP) literature, this research proposes that CP variation is the degree to which employees perceive variability across customers with regard to customers sharing information, time, and effort and making suggestions to enhance the service delivery process and outcome. Drawing on the job demands-resources model, this research explicates the mediating process by which CP variation affects customer service performance and its boundary conditions. Study 1 uses data from a field study in the banking industry to show that CP variation negatively influences customer service performance through greater customer-related burnout. The authors show that this mediation process is moderated by contingencies that mitigate or exacerbate the indirect relationship. Study 2 further validates the CP variation construct by testing for discriminant validity against similar and related constructs, such as CP quality, in more diverse service industries (insurance, legal consulting, travel and tourism, health care, and physical fitness). Finally, an examination of the moderating role of CP quality provides a more nuanced picture of the intricacies between CP variation and CP quality. This article concludes with a discussion of the theoretical and practical implications for CP variation research.
Faize Dayalı Swap Sözleşmeleri ve Muhasebeleştirilmesi
(Kenan ÇELİK, 2016) Tuncay Emir, Ferhan; Cengiz, Hülya
Vadeli işlem sözleşmeleri, işletmelerin maruz kaldığı riskleri en aza indirmek amacıyla kullanılan finansal araçlardır. Vadeli işlem sözleşmelerinde en çok kullanılanlardan biri faize dayalı swap sözleşmeleridir. Faize dayalı swap sözleşmelerinde taraflar, belirli bir süre boyunca belirli miktarlarda ödeme yükümlülüklerini birbirleriyle takas ederler. Faize dayalı swap sözleşmeleri riskten korunma veya spekülatif amaçlı gerçekleştirilmektedir. Sözleşmeye hangi amaçla taraf olunuyorsa, buna göre bu işlemlerden sağlanan kazanç ya da kaybın muhasebeleştirilmesi ve raporlanması da farklılık gösterecektir. Swap sözleşmesin amacı riskten korunma ise bu durumun finansal tablolara da yansıtılması gerekir. Bu çalışma kapsamında faize dayalı swap işlemlerinin muhasebeleştirilmesi Uluslararası Muhasebe Standartları (IAS)/Uluslararası Finansal Raporlama Standartları (IFRS) çerçevesinde ele alınmıştır. Vadeli işlemlerin muhasebeleştirilmesi, uluslararası standartlarda riskten korunma temeline dayanır. Bu nedenle, bu çalışmada riskten korunma amaçlı bir swap örneği verilip, süreç içindeki yapılması gereken işlemler ve dönem sonunda mali tabloların nasıl etkilendiği anlatılmıştır.

How Does Self-Concept Clarity Influence Happiness in Social Settings? the Role of Strangers Versus Friends
(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019) Merdin-Uygur, Ezgi; Sarial-Abi, Gulen; Gurhan-Canli, Zeynep; Hesapci, Ozlem
Self-concept clarity (SCC) defined as the extent to which the content of an individual's self-beliefs is clearly and confidently defined and internally consistent influences experiences in social relationships. This paper extends the previous literature on SCC by proposing and demonstrating that high-SCC individuals anticipate and experience more happiness than low-SCC individuals when they share a social setting with friends and anticipate and experience less happiness than low-SCC individuals when they share a social setting with strangers and that this is because of perceived interpersonal distance. A series of four studies including both online studies and a field study support these predictions. Alternative explanations of self-esteem and self-efficacy are also ruled out. The findings yield both theoretical contributions and practical implications.

Family Involvement, Corporate Governance and Dividends in Turkey
(Emerald Group Publishing Limited, 2019) Sener, Pinar; Akben Selçuk, Elif
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationship between dividends and family involvement as well as corporate governance characteristics among Turkish public firms. Design/methodology/approach: Using panel data on Turkish firms listed on the Borsa Istanbul 100 index for 2006–2014 three models are estimated. For the first two models where the dependent variables are the dividend payout ratio and dividend yield respectively tobit regressions are run. The last model which employs a dividend dummy as the dependent variable is estimated with logistic regression. Findings: There is a positive and concave relationship between family ownership and dividends. The existence of a family chairman reduces dividends. There is a positive association between board size and dividends and this relationship is weaker for firms with higher levels of family ownership. Finally the ratio of independent directors on the board is negatively associated with dividends. Practical implications: The findings imply that firms with substantial family ownership and active family participation in management are more likely to send a negative signal to minority shareholders by paying lower dividends. In addition minority shareholders should pay attention to the board structure of firms in which they invest. Originality/value: This study is one of the few to analyze the nonlinear relationship between family ownership and dividend payments as well as the role of family management in a developing country. Second it investigates the role of board characteristics in explaining dividend payment decisions. © 2019 Emerald Publishing Limited.
"türkiye'de Bireysel Emeklilik Sistemine Katılım Kararını Etkileyen Faktörler"
(İstanbul Okan Üniversitesi, 2017) Aydın, Aslı Elif; Akben Selçuk, Elif
Bu çalışmanın amacı, Türkiye’de bireysel emeklilik sistemine giriş ve otomatik katılımdan cayma kararını etkileyen faktörleri ortaya koymaktır. 130 kişiden kolayda örnekleme ile elde edilen verinin lojistik regresyon yöntemiyle analiz edilmesi sonucu şu bulgulara ulaşılmıştır: Öncelikle, yaş ve gelir düzeyi arttıkça bir bireysel emeklilik planına dahil olma ihtmali artmaktadır. Şimdiki zaman odaklı olan bireylerin bir bireysel emeklilik planına dahil olma ihtimali daha düşük bulunmuştur. Ayrıca, iç kontrol odağına sahip kişilerin bireysel emeklilik planına dahil olma ihtimalleri daha yülsek bulunmuştur. Son olarak, kaçınmacı odak ve bireysel emeklilk sistemine dahil olma ihtimali arasında pozitif ve anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu görülmektedir. Otomatik katılımlı sistemde kalma ihtimalini tahmin eden lojistik regresyon modelinde ise sadece iki değişken anlamlı sonuç vermiştir. Şimdiki zaman odaklı bireylerin cayma ihtimalinin daha yüksek olduğu görülmektedir. Ayrıca hali hazırda isteğe bağlı bir bireysel emeklilik planı sahibi olan bireylerin sistemde kalma ihtimali diğerlerine göre 2.9 kat daha fazla bulunmuştur.

Frontline Employee Feedback-Seeking Behavior: How Is It Formed and When Does It Matter?
(Sage Publications Inc, 2019) Auh, Seigyoung; Mengüç, Bülent; İmer, Havva Pınar; Uslu, Aypar
This research comprises two studies that extend the literature on the proactive behavior of feedback seeking. Study 1 uses cross-sectional data from frontline employees across 51 apparel stores to examine how feedback seeking is formed and under what conditions. The results suggest that the development of feedback-seeking behavior is contingent on a feedback-seeking climate and the relationship between an employee and his or her supervisor. Study 2 uses longitudinal data collected across three time periods from multiple respondents (i.e. frontline employees and managers) not only to replicate the findings from Study 1 but also to explore when feedback seeking matters. The findings reveal that managers should target employees who are less (vs. more) satisfied with their jobs because such employees perceive more instrumental value from feedback as a means to improve customer service and sales performance. The findings from this research provide insights that managers can use to increase feedback-seeking behavior from employees and effectively identify and manage the conditions under which feedback seeking will occur to greater or lesser degrees.
Markaların Sosyal Medya Yardım Masası Hesaplarına Yapılan Şikayetlerin Analizi: Yüksek Teknoloji Ürünleri Üzerine Bir Çalışma
(Melih Topaloğlu, 2018) Önden, Abdullah; Kiygi Calli, Meltem
Bu araştırmada marka müşterilerinin satın alıp kullandıkları ürünlerle ilgili istek ve şikayetlerini ilettikleri çevrimiçi yardım masalarıyla olan etkileşimi incelenerek markaların şikayetlere nasıl yanıt verdikleri ve uyguladıkları şikayet yönetiminin müşterilerin duygularındaki değişimi nasıl etkilediği araştırılmış ve sosyal medya ağlarından elde edilen veriler duygu analizi yöntemiyle analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmada müşterilerin istek ve şikayetlerini ilettikleri paylaşımlarındaki tutumlarının duygusal değerinin ne olduğu, çevrimiçi yardım masasının konuyu nasıl ele aldığı ve çevrimiçi yardım masası ile olan etkileşimin uzunluğunun (soru ve cevap iletişiminin sayısı) tutum ve duygusal değeri nasıl etkilediği incelenmiştir. Araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre çalışmada ele alınan markaların kendilerine çevrimiçi yardım masaları üzerinden iletilen talep ve şikayetleri ivedilikle çözdükleri belirlenmiştir. Büyük markalar hizmet telafisi paradoksu teorisine göre hareket edip ürünleri hakkında sorun yaşamış ve ürün hakkında şikayette bulunmuş müşterilerini mutlu etmektelerdir. Böylece bu müşterilerin sadık müşterilere dönüştükleri sonucuna varılmaktadır.

The Limitations of Turkey's New Foreign Policy Activism in the Caucasian Regional Security Complexity
(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2011) İşeri, Emre; Dilek, Oğuz
A panoramic outlook on the present global system shows that the US has been failing to preserve its global preponderance against the rise of new contenders from Asia. Turkey's new foreign policy demeanor under the AKP government reflects this shift of global power from the West to the East leaning on both of these two poles (especially Russia and the US) thereby aims at creating a 'zero-problem' situation with the neighboring Caucasian states. Yet this strategy has not achieved its goal mainly due to the ongoing debates not only between Moscow and Washington but also between Azerbaijan and Armenia in the Caucasian Regional Security Complexity. This work tries to read all these developments by applying insights from the neoclassical realist standing and argues that there are two main hindrances to the plan's success: the dynamics of the current global system and the security complexity of the Caucasus region.

Meat Substitutes in Sustainability Context: a Content Analysis of Consumer Attitudes
(Routledge, 2020) Tosun, Petek; Yanar, Merve; Sezgin, Selime; Uray, Nimet
Food consumption affects the environment because it requires the usage of water, land, and oil resources. In particular, the consumption of red meat is associated with sustainability issues. Replacing meat with plant-based meat substitutes offers a useful way of reducing the burden that meat consumption places on the environment and dealing with issues regarding animal welfare. However, consumer acceptance of such products is low in some countries. The purpose of this paper is to clarify consumer attitudes toward meat substitutes and discuss them from a marketing perspective. The findings of this study, which are based on content analyses of web forums in Turkey, indicate that negative consumer perceptions can be categorized into three main dimensions: unhealthy, unusual, and tasteless. A marketing perceptive is used to discuss the findings.

Delineating the Concept of Corporate Social Innovation: Toward a Multidimensional Model
(Inderscience Publishers, 2019) Esen, Ayla; Maden-Eyiusta, Ceyda
Business organisations are facing increasing pressure over their role in society. Social innovation is a relatively new concept used to define efforts to develop novel and innovative solutions to social challenges. The aim of this study is to conceptualise a novel form of social innovation, namely, ‘corporate social innovation’, by focusing on social innovation efforts initiated by private sector organisations. This study also aims to provide insight into: 1) the definition of corporate social innovation; 2) the key dimensions underlying the social innovation capability of business organisations. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with 20 experts who play an active role in various social innovation projects in their respective organisations and/or adopt social innovation as an academic field of interest. The interview results extend our conceptual understanding of the corporate social innovation phenomenon by providing a comprehensive definition of the concept and describing a six-factor model of corporate social innovation capability.

The Role of Climate: Implications for Service Employee Engagement and Customer Service Performance
(Springer, 2017) Mengüç, Bülent; Auh, Seigyoung; Yeniaras, Volkan; Katsikeas, Constantine S.
This research attempts to challenge the resource-engagement and engagement-performance linkage of the job demands-resources model by testing these links under the moderating role of two climates: performance-focused and service failure recovery. Two studies test a model on the boundary conditions of the linkages across four service industries. The results suggest that whether a resource (i.e. self-efficacy and job autonomy) positively or negatively affects engagement depends on whether (1) a climate is appraised as a challenge or hindrance demand and (2) a climate is deemed a complementary or compensatory resource. Using multi-respondent data from customer service employees and their supervisors in the health care industry Study 1 conceptualizes climate as organizational climate and finds that performance-focused climate strengthens (weakens) the positive effect of self-efficacy (job autonomy) on engagement while service failure recovery climate weakens the positive impact of self-efficacy on engagement. Study 2 generalizes the findings from Study 1 and provides broad support by testing the model using psychological climate in the financial services tourism and hospitality and retailing industries. This study closes with a configuration approach to climate research by discussing when multiple climates can co-exist under different types of resources.

Alone but Together Autonomous but Related: Self-Construal Effects on Happiness in Social Experiences
(Wiley, 2018) Merdin-Uygur, Ezgi; Hesapci, Ozlem
Communal tables and open workspaces have become popular servicescapes that is contemporary spaces for experiencing dining or working alone but together. Previous research demonstrates that experiencing with close others (e.g. with friends or family) increases happiness and satisfaction but experiences shared with strangers in contexts such as communal tables or workshops have not yet been thoroughly analyzed. Addressing this research gap from a social-psychological perspective we suggest that even though individuals are generally happier when they share experiences with loved ones self-construal plays a moderating role in the relationship. Individuals with high autonomy and high relatedness do not anticipate greater happiness from experiences shared with friends than with those shared with strangers. Three experimental studies (two online and one field) demonstrate this effect using different operationalizations of autonomy relatedness. Managerial implications are discussed and suggestions are made for future research.
