Women's Shelters in Turkey: A Qualitative Study on Shortcomings of Policy Making and Implementation
(Sage Publications Inc, 2013)
Despite a long history of women's movements and policy-making efforts to ameliorate women's status in Turkey, the number and quality of women's shelters are far from sufficient. This article aims to reveal the shortcomings ...
A MATHEMATICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE CRITICAL POINT IN PHASE TRANSITIONS
(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2013)
Let y(x) be a smooth sigmoidal curve, y((n)) be its nth derivative and {x(m,i)} and {x(a,i)}, i = 1, 2, ... , be the set of points where respectively the derivatives of odd and even order reach their extreme values. We ...
Cultural differences in performance on Eriksen's flanker task
(Springer, 2020)
Eriksen's zoom model of attention implies a trade-off between the breadth and resolution of representations of information. Following this perspective, we used Eriksen's flanker task to investigate culture's influence on ...

Responses to replica (vs. genuine) touristic experiences
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science, 2020)
A growing trend in tourism is the use of replica experiences. Yet, consumers' responses to replica (vs. genuine) touristic experiences are mostly overlooked in the literature. In this paper, we propose that consumers' ...
R&D Activity and Financing Constraints: Evidence from Turkey
(Savez Ekonomista Vojvodine, 2020)
We analyze the relationship between financing constraints and firms' R&D activity using a rich and comprehensive firm-level balance sheet and income statement data set of manufacturing firms in Turkey for the period 1996 ...
Frustrated Potts model: Multiplicity eliminates chaos via reentrance
(Amer Physical Soc, 2020)
The frustrated q-state Potts model is solved exactly on a hierarchical lattice, yielding chaos under rescaling, namely, the signature of a spin-glass phase, as previously seen for the Ising (q = 2) model. However, the ...
Loan loss provisioning of US banks: Economic policy uncertainty and discretionary behavior
(Elsevier Inc, 2021)
This paper examines the effect of economic policy uncertainty (EPU) on loan loss provisions (LLP). Using a sample of 6384 US banks and yearly data from 2009 to 2019 and addressing endogeneity (GMM and IV estimations), the ...
Large Eddy Simulation of Wind Flow over A Realistic Urban Area
(MDPI, 2020)
A high-resolution large eddy simulation (LES) of wind flow over the Oklahoma City downtown area was performed to explain the effect of the building height on wind flow over the city. Wind flow over cities is vital for ...
Physical-Layer Security With Optical Generalized Space Shift Keying
(Ieee-Inst Electrıcal Electronıcs Engıneers Inc, 2020)
Spatial modulation (SM) is a promising technique that reduces inter-channel interference while providing high power efficiency and detection simplicity. In order to ensure the secrecy of SM, precoding and friendly jamming ...
