Activating reflective thinking with decision justification and debiasing training
(Society for Judgment and Decision making, 2020)
Manipulations for activating reflective thinking, although regularly used in the literature, have not previously been systematically compared. There are growing concerns about the effectiveness of these methods as well as ...
Noise annoyance during COVID-19 lockdown: A research of public opinion before and during the pandemic
(Acoustical Society of America, 2020)
Strict lockdown strategies to stop the spread of COVID-19 have caused a decrease in environmental noise levels and introduced new noise conditions in dwellings. The present study has investigated the impact of the forced ...
Complete density calculations of q-state Potts and clock models: Reentrance of interface densities under symmetry breaking
(Amer Physical Soc, 2020)
All local bond-state densities are calculated for q-state Potts and clock models in three spatial dimensions, d = 3. The calculations are done by an exact renormalization group on a hierarchical lattice, including the ...
'Who wants left-wing policies? Economic preferences and political cleavages in Turkey'
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020)
We administer a survey of economic policy preferences to a representative sample of the Turkish voting-age population. We show that policy preferences are distributed in non-linear ways that are at odds with what could be ...
Heterogeneous effects of minimum wage on labor market outcomes: A case study from Turkey
(Walter de Gruyter, 2020)
We assess the effects of a sharp minimum wage increase on wages, informality, and employment in Turkey, a large developing economy with one of the highest minimum wage-to-average wage ratios among OECD countries and ...
'Just the way my generation reads the news': News consumption habits of youth in Turkey and the UK
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2020)
Audiences' media use and news consumption behaviour are constantly shifting. Some scholars note that the growing decline in youth's news consumption raises concerns about the future of democracy in various media systems. ...
Political Will, Political Skill, Network Resources and Personal Reputation: A Serial Two-Mediator Model

Do changes in threat salience predict the moral content of sermons? The case of Friday Khutbas in Turkey
(Wiley, 2020)
We analyzed the content of "Friday Khutbas" delivered in Turkish mosques between January 2001 and December 2018 to test the prediction of moral foundations theory (MFT) literature that threat salience would lead to an ...
Greasing the wheels: the Berlin-Baghdad railway and Ottoman oil, 1888?1907

In the 1880s, Germany cultivated an alliance with the Ottoman Empire that led to a concession to build one of history?s most storied, diplomatically contentious, and financially challenging infrastructure projects: the ...
Development of a parallel 3D navier–stokes solver for sediment transport calculations in channels
(MDPI AG, 2020)
We propose a method to parallelize a 3D incompressible Navier–Stokes solver that uses a fully implicit fractional-step method to simulate sediment transport in prismatic channels. The governing equations are transformed ...
