Ulus kavramının getirdiği ortak vizyonu ve hayalleri sahnede temsil yoluyla somutlaştırarak kitleye bir çeşit alternatif evren yaratmış, duygularını su yüzüne çıkarmaya neden olmuştur. Giuseppe Verdi’nin Nabucco ile La Battaglia di Legnano operaları da henüz siyasi birliğini tamamlayamamış İtalyan halkın bağımsızlık için harekete geçmesine vesile olmuştur. Tarihçiler, operanın tarihi anlamada ne gibi bir rolü olduğu sorusuna eğilirken müzikologlar opera eserlerinin ve temsillerinin sosyal ve tarihsel çerçevenin doğrudan etkisi altında yazıldığı görüşündedirler. Sanatın siyasi tarihteki önemli rolünü çözümleyebilmek için tarihçiler ile müzikologların birlikte çalışması gereklidir. Disiplinler arası araştırmada bulunmak, müziğin, opera metninin nelerden etkilendiğini, izleyici tarafından ne kadar ve ne yönde kabul gördüğünü, nerelerde temsillerinin yapıldığını, dönemin yönetimi ve politik gayelerini ortaya koymak bu rolü çözümleyebilmek için esastır. Operanın biçimsel özellikleri ve sembolizm, aktivistlerin kültürel nesneleri siyasallaştırarak yorum inşası ve dayatması için kullandığı kaynaklardan biridir. Risorgimento süreci de bu şekilde ilerlemiştir. The art of opera turned into a mass communication media in the Romantic Period. It closed the gap between classes in social life by conducive to the coming together of all social classes. By embodying the common vision and dreams brought by the concept of nation through representation on the stage, the opera created an alternative universe for the audience, causing their feelings to stir. Giuseppe Verdi's Nabucco and La Battaglia di Legnano operas aided the Italian people metaphorically, who had not yet completed their political union, to take action for their independence. While historians address the question of what role opera plays in understanding history, musicologists are more intrigued in if opera works and performances were written under the direct influence of social and historical context. In order to analyse the important role of art in political history, historians and musicologists should cooperate with their studies. It is essential to make interdisciplinary research, to reveal in what way and how much the music and the text are influenced by, in what way they are accepted by the audience, where they are represented, and to reveal the governance and political goals of the period. The formal features and symbolism of the opera are two of the resources that activists use to construct and impose interpretation by politicizing cultural objects. This is also how the Risorgimento process proceeded.Item Regulation of anger by writing: Usage of expression, problem solving and distraction strategies(Başkent Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü, 2023) Şahin, İrem; Akın Sarı, BurçinThe main purpose of this study was to examine the effects on anger regulation of emotion regulation strategies applied through writing tasks. In this respect, a scenario that would trigger the emotion of anger was created to be used in the experimental phase. Levels of anger regulation were then evaluated by examining the effects of expression, problemsolving, and distraction strategies applied through writing tasks on positive affect, negative affect, valence, and arousal values of emotion. In addition, the levels of effectiveness of these emotion regulation strategies were compared with each other. The sample of the study consisted of 152 female university students. The Positive and Negative Affect Scale, Emotion and Arousal Assessment Form, and Emotional Valence Form were used as data collection tools and the dataset was analyzed with IBM SPSS Statistics in accordance with the research questions and hypotheses. It was found that all three emotion regulation strategies had significant effects on negative affect and arousal. The most effective strategy for negative affect was distraction, while the least effective was expression. Finally, the most effective strategies for arousal were distraction and expression with problem-solving, and there was no significant difference between the effectiveness of these two strategies, while the least effective strategy was expression. All findings are discussed in light of the relevant literature.Bu çalışmanın temel amacı yazı yazma aracılığıyla kullanılan duygu düzenleme stratejilerinin öfke duygusunu düzenleme üzerindeki etkisinin incelenmesidir. Bu doğrultuda öncelikle, deney aşamasında kullanılmak üzere öfke duygusunu tetikleyecek bir senaryo içeriği oluşturulmuştur. Ardından, yazı yazma aracılığıyla uygulanan ifade etme, ifade etmeyle beraber problem çözme ve dikkat dağıtma stratejilerinin pozitif duygulanım, negatif duygulanım, duygunun şiddeti ve hoşnutluk derecesi üzerindeki etkisi incelenerek öfke duygusunun düzenlenmesi değerlendirilmiştir. Ek olarak duygu düzenleme stratejilerinin etkililiği birbiriyle karşılaştırılmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemini üniversite öğrencisi olan 152 kadın katılımcı oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada veri toplama araçları olarak Pozitif ve Negatif Duygulanım Ölçeği, Duygu ve Şiddet Formu ve Duygunun Hoşnutluk Formu kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen veri seti, araştırma sorularına ve hipotezlere uygun olarak SPSS programı ile analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmanın bulgularına göre her üç duygu düzenleme stratejisinin de negatif duygulanım ve duygunun şiddeti üzerinde anlamlı bir etkisinin olduğu görülmüştür. Son olarak, duygunun şiddeti için en etkili stratejiler dikkat dağıtma ve problem çözme olmuştur ve bu iki stratejinin etkililiği arasında anlamlı fark yokken en az etkili olan stratejinin ise ifade etme stratejisi olduğu görülmüştür. Elde edilen tüm bulgular alanyazın ışığında ele alınarak tartışılmıştır.Item How patients perceive healthcare services: A case of Ayub Teaching Hospital, Abbottabad - Pakistan. SERV Service QUAL Quality(2018) Ali, MuhammadA field study was conducted in Ayub Teaching Hospital in the outpatient department, to evaluate the level of service quality offered by the healthcare services with a view to identifying the relationship between service quality dimensions and overall service quality. The researchers used the SERVQUAL instrument for the purpose of assessing the quality of the service offered by the healthcare workers at the outpatient department in Ayub Teaching Hospital. A sample of 246 patients in the outpatient department participated in the questionnaire survey. Descriptive statistics were used to find out mean values and variance between actual values from perceived values. To assess the strength of model regression, the aforementioned technique was adopted. The study results showed that there exists a gap between patients' expectation and actual services offered by the healthcare workers. There were five dimensions that were assessed: tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance and empathy. The results revealed that patients are dissatisfied with three dimensions (tangibles, reliability and assurance), but they are satisfied with the other two dimensions (responsiveness and empathy). This research adopts the marketing concept to measure the healthcare services. The SERVQUAL tool was modified as per need to meet the requirements in accordance with the nature and scope of the research. Patients' attitudes toward service quality dimensions were the concern of the research. To get a comprehensive evaluation of service quality, healthcare providers have to be considered in future research. Based on the findings of this study, Ayub Teaching Hospital's (ATH) management is in a position to recognize the patients' perceptions about the healthcare services and offer them service accordingly. Results can be used by management and government policymakers regarding healthcare to bring better and more effective services. Consequently, based on the results, new structure can be designed by adopting strategies that improve the quality of services in order to provide effective services and gain patients' satisfaction and propensity to further recommend the services of healthcare to other patients. This study investigates the healthcare quality in a small area in Pakistan. Pakistan is a developing country. Future research can adopt the SERVPREF technique, which is a more developed technique than SERVQUAL in order to measure service quality as it provides a two-factor solution for the dimensionality of health service quality.Item A Cross-Sectional Survey on Consequences of Nurses' Burnout: Moderating Role of Organizational Politics(2016) Basar, Ufuk; Basim, Nejat; 0000-0003-0008-5131; 26988276; ABD-9381-2021; J-2510-2016AimThe aim of the study was to assess whether perceptions of organizational politics (defined as self-serving behaviours at the expense of others) influence the prospective associations between nurses' burnout and its consequences, namely, intention to quit and neglect of work. BackgroundResearchers have previously investigated relationships between nurses' burnout, intention to quit, neglect of work and perceptions of organizational politics in different research models and from different perspectives. As far as we know, no studies have considered whether nurses' perceptions of organizational politics moderate the influence of burnout. DesignA cross-sectional survey using self-report questionnaires. MethodData were collected by questionnaire from a sample of 456 nurses from six private hospitals in Ankara, Turkey in March 2015. Four different previously designed scales were used to measure research variables (burnout, intention to quit, neglect of work and perceptions of organizational politics). Following confirmatory validity and reliability analyses of data collection instruments, descriptive statistics for each research variable were analysed. Structural regression models were created to assess relationships among variables. FindingsBurnout resulted in intention to quit and neglect. Intention to quit partially mediated the association between burnout and neglect. Burnout gave rise to intention to quit slightly more strongly in nurses who had greater perceptions of organizational politics. ConclusionThis study uncovers and emphasizes the moderating role of perceptions of organizational politics in consequences of burnout. This may help hospital managers and nurses to improve costs, efficiency, satisfaction and productivity.Item Twenty-Five Years Later, Change, Adaptation to Change and Resistance in the Dortdivan(2022) Gunaydin, JansetBu cozumleme arayislari, belirli sosyal olgular cevresinde gerceklestirilir.

The unlikely encounter between Solomon/Gabriel and Dorothy, a white Englishwoman, in a setting inhospitable to both of them opens up a narrative space to explore the imperial legacy that persists in contemporary racism in Britain. The novel achieves this through a mnemonic narrative strategy based on a fragmented structure with a narrative voice shifting back and forth in time and place. In doing so, the novel contests the idea of the homogeneous nation by drawing parallels between the Middle Passage and refugee flow from Africa. This study will, thus, demonstrate that the novel offers a transcultural perspective on memory and nation by illustrating the cross-border reach of memories that are ignored by national essentialism.Item The Blockade of the Dardanelles Strait and the Occupation of Bozcaada During the Tripoli and Balkan Wars, Through the Eyes of Telegrapher Ihsan (Pere) Bey(2022) Ozcan, HalilTripoli and Balkan Wars accelerated the process leading to the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. In these wars, the Dardanelles Strait and the islands near the strait were the common target chosen by Italy and Greece for the surrender of the Ottoman Empire. In both wars, Ihsan (Pere) Bey served as the telegraph officer of the British Eastern Cable Company in Bozcaada. The Tripoli War was continuing when Ihsan Bey, who had started his civil service as an officer of the Istanbul Beyoglu British Cable Company, was appointed as officer to Bozcaada for the second time. Ihsan Bey's witnessing in Bozcaada to the hot war of the Italian Navy and the Turkish Redoubts on April 18, 1912 and the detailed information he has given are important. In addition, the occupation of Bozcaada by Greece during the Balkan War is also included in detail in Ihsan Bey's memoirs. The originality of this study results from the fact that Ihsan Bey's memoirs when Italians reached to the entrance of the Dardanelles and regarding the occupation of Bozcaada are evaluated scientifically and published for the first time.Item Love is Not Blind: Investigating A Love-Hate Transition Among Luxury Fashion Brand Consumers(2021) Kashif, Muhammad; Devrani, Tulay Korkmaz; Rehman, Aisha; Samad, SarminahPurpose There is extensive research where consumer emotions of brand love and brand hate are investigated. However, the studies where a transition in consumer-brand emotions is explored are scant. This paper aims to investigate the mediating effect of brand jealousy in the relationship between brand love and brand hate among luxury fashion brand consumers. Also how value expressiveness moderates the relationship between brand hate and negative word of mouth (NWOM) is examined. Design/methodology/approach The study is based on a cross-sectional survey conducted among 273 luxury fashion consumers from Pakistan. The structural equation modeling (SEM) technique is employed to test the proposed hypotheses. Findings All the proposed hypotheses are supported. Brand jealousy mediates the relationship between brand love and brand hate. Furthermore, value expressiveness buffers the relationship between brand hate and NWOM. Practical implications The luxury fashion marketers should focus on strengthening the symbolic identity of a luxury fashion brand via advocating its visual elements. Moreover, there is a need to advertise luxury fashion brands as exclusive to individual customers. Finally, some rewards can be offered to consumers to generate positive word of mouth (WOM) about luxury fashion brands. Originality/value The study of an emotional transition among luxury brand customers via a mediating role of brand jealousy is a unique theoretical contribution. Moreover, the moderating role of the value-expressiveness function examining the hate-to-NWOM path is also unique to this study.Item Molecular Biology Inspired Mutual Authentication Schemes for Wireless Body Area Network(2021) Ozkoc, Esma Erguner; Mannion, MikeAs the use of Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) becomes widespread, concerns about the security of the data they produce and transmit are also increasing. One of the basic security requirement for WBAN communication include authentication. In this study, a certificate-less mutual authentication scheme is proposed. The scheme was developed using pseudo-DNA cryptography techniques (due to its features such as randomness and rule less, easily generated and accessible, similarity to the binary system and no need for high-tech laboratory conditions) in addition to modern cryptography techniques, to increases the level of security without adding additional computational costs to the system.
