Optimism in Positive Psychology

2024, 6th International Conference on Global Practice of Multidisciplinary Scientific Studies

Optimism is one of the most important concepts in positive psychology. The benefits of being an optimist seem to outweigh the disadvantages by far. Most of the research supports this idea, and this is also how the general public thinks. By being an optimist, we expect good things to happen in the future, and we believe we can achieve our goals. On the contrary, if we are a pessimist, we tend to believe that things will not go our way. Consequently, we will have less motivation to act. In this article, we take a closer look at optimism in positive psychology, which is the kind of psychology that approaches the human psyche not from the aspect of psychopathology, but human thriving. Optimism is not as simple as it sometimes may sound. In this article, we examine its strong impact on well-being, life satisfaction, and even perceived pain management. But since optimism is not without any disadvantages, we also examined how some types of optimism, such as being too optimistic, can be not that good. Likewise, we talked about how some types of pessimism such as defensive pessimism can be beneficial in some cases. The most important point we find is that, the context is crucial when it comes to what kind of psychological attitude we should take, in terms of optimism or pessimism.

Zirai alanda yetiştirilen birçok tür, çelik yöntemiyle başarıyla üretilebilir ve uygulaması kolaydır, ancak bu tekniğin başarısı, çeliğin adventif kök oluşturma yeteneğine bağlıdır. Adventif köklenme aynı zamanda vejetatif yolla üreyen bitkiler için de önemlidir. Hormonların adventif köklenme üzerinde önemli etkileri olduğu bilinmektedir. Çelikle bitki üretiminde IBA ve IAA hormonları yaygın olarak kullanılan hormonlardır. IBA’ ın etkisini IAA’e dönüşerek gösterdiği düşünülmektedir. Bu nedenle IBA-IAA dönüşümü, adventif kök oluşumunda kilit bir rol oynamaktadır. HB24 geninin Arabidopsis türünde köklenme sürecinde görev aldığı ve IBAIAA dönüşümünü kontrol ettiği bilinmektedir, buna rağmen adventif köklenme üzerindeki etkileri tam olarak araştırılmamıştır. Bu çalışma HB24 geninin adventif köklenme üzerindeki etkilerini araştırmayı amaçlamıştır. Bu amaçla HB24 geninin insersiyonel TDNA mutant hatlarında adventif kök gelişimi yabanıl tip bitkilerle karşılaştırmalı olarak analiz edilmiştir. Çimlenme sonrası kökler uzaklaştırılarak, hipokotil kısımları medyaya temas edecek şekilde yeni bir medyaya aktarılmıştır. Bitkilerin adventif kök oluşumu 7. gün sonunda gözlenmiştir. Mutant bitkilerde yabanıl tip bitkiler ile karşılaştırıldığında adventif köklenmenin azaldığı gözlemlenmiştir. Bu etkinin bir transkripsiyon faktörü olan HB24’ün IBA-IAA dönüşümünü gerçekleştiren genlerin anlatımlarını kontrol ederek gerçekleştirdiği düşünülmektedir. Bu çalışma ile elde edilen sonuçlar adventif köklenmenin daha iyi anlaşılabilmesi adına önemli veriler ortaya çıkarmıştır. 2210-A burs programı için TÜBİTAK'a ve bu araştırmayı finanse ettiği için Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart Üniversitesi BAP'a (Zeytin HB24 geninin karakterizasyonu ve Fonksiyonel Analizi - FBA-2022-3917) teşekkür ederim.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS OF HB24 GENE AND ITS ROLE IN ADVENTITIOUS ROOTING IN ARABIDOPSIS THALIANA ABSTRACT Adventitious rooting is the rooting of plants from a tissue rather than the root tissue. Many cultivated agricultural species can be successfully propagated by the cutting method and are easy to implement, but the success of this technique depends on the ability of the cutting to form adventitious roots. Adventitious rooting is also important for plants that reproduce vegetatively. It is known that hormones have important effects on adventitious rooting. IBA and IAA hormones are hormones widely used in the cutting method. It is thought that IBA shows its effect by turning into IAA. Therefore, IBA-IAA conversion plays a key role in adventitious root formation. It is known that the HB24 gene is involved in the rooting process and controls the IBA-IAA conversion in Arabidopsis species, but its effects on adventitious rooting have not been fully investigated. This study aimed to investigate the effects of the HB24 gene on adventitious rooting. For this purpose, adventitious root development in insertion TDNA mutant lines of the HB24 gene has been analyzed comparatively with wild-type plants. Following germination, roots were removed, and hypocotyl portions were transferred to new media in a manner that they would come into contact with the media. Adventitious root formation in plants was observed after 7 days. It was observed that, compared to wild-type plants, adventitious rooting decreased in mutant plants. This effect is thought to be mediated by HB24, a transcription factor, regulating the expressions of genes involved in IBA-IAA conversion. The results obtained from this study have provided important data for a better understanding of adventitious rooting. I would like to thank TÜBİTAK for 2210-A scholarship program and Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University BAP (Characterization and Functional Analysis of the olive HB24 gene - FBA-2022-3917) for funding this research.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal PROVERBS EXPRESSION WITH KINETIC TYPOGRAPHYABSTRACT Leman ÜSTÜNDAĞ (ORCID: 0000-0002-4858-4960) Bandirma Onyedi Eylul University, Gonen Vocational School, Design, Balikesir, Turkey. Email:lustundag@bandirma.edu.tr ABSTRACT Introduction and Purpose: Communication is our most basic need. Language is the most important tool for people to communicate with each other. Language consists of words and defines verbal communication, which is the most effective form of communication. The need for communication has constantly changed in the historical process and gained new forms. Technology has developed, changed and new communication channels have been formed with the need to reproduce information and deliver it to more masses. With the development of technology, which is one of the most important parts of this change, people's communication styles, their understanding of entertainment, and their social environment interactions have been reshaped. Each language has proverbs that describe its own values. Proverbs are a concise, pleasing, stereotyped expression tool that shows the moral and cultural values, lifestyle and thought structure of nations. In the simplest terms, kinetic typography is expressed as an animation application that conveys emotions and thoughts while using movement and writing together. Today, the widespread use of digital environments, smart devices, etc. and the need to access and comprehend information quickly have expanded the usage areas of kinetic typography. This research is about the expression of a proverb selected to transfer proverbs from the past to the present with kinetic typography. Due to the insufficiency of the number of previous studies on this subject, the aim of this research is to create an experimental example.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ON THE EXISTENCE OF CONCIRCULAR TRANSFORMATION ON NONRIEMANNIAN MANIFOLDS ABSTRACT Weyl spaces were introduced by Hermann Weyl in 1918 to formulate the unified field theory in physics. Although Weyl's work was not accepted at first, Weyl manifolds have been of interest to both physicists and mathematicians. The metric expressed by the coordinate function is of great importance in determining the structure of our tensor space. In this study, first, Riemannian manifolds, geometric quantities of the space belonging to these manifolds, curvature and curvature related properties of these quantities; then Weyl manifolds, properties related to the structure of these manifolds; in addition to these, Weyl manifolds on which the semisymmetric recurrent metric connection is defined and the curvatures of these manifolds, the related properties and quantities are mentioned. Thus, it is observed how the components in the transformations of Weyl space defined by different metrics change. The existence of a circle preserving (concircular) map on Weyl manifolds is analyzed and proved. In addition, the structure of the curvature with a semisymmetric recurrent metric conformation, symmetry properties under this transformation, and Bianchi identity are proved and introduced to the literature. The necessary and sufficient condition for a concircular curvature to be gradient under conformal curvature is proved and shown. Keywords: Weyl Manifolds, Riemannian Manifolds, Concircular Transformation 5 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION DECISIONS IN THE CONDITIONS OF MILITARY AND HUMANITARIAN CRISES Yashchenko GANNA (ORCID:0009-0003-0378-4031) Doctor of Philosophy program student in the specialty "Public Management and Administration", National Forestry University of Ukraine Email: yashenko.gan@gmail.com ABSTRACT Crisis situations, whether military or humanitarian in nature, present complex challenges for decision-makers. The decisions made during such crises can have significant impacts on human life, safety, and well-being. This makes it essential that public administrators take a thoughtful and informed approach to decision-making in such situations. This essay will explore the role of public administration in navigating military and humanitarian crises. It will argue that decisions made during crisis situations should prioritize the protection of human life and safety, be transparent and accountable, and involve international cooperation and coordination. However, it will also consider counter-arguments that suggest decisions may need to prioritize national security interests, be made quickly and without full information, and may be difficult to achieve international cooperation and coordination. During crisis situations, decisions must prioritize the protection of human life and safety. Such decisions should be based on the principles of human rights and humanitarian law. This means that the needs of vulnerable populations, such as refugees and internally displaced persons, should be taken into account. Decision-makers should also consider the potential long-term consequences of their actions. For example, decisions made during military crises may have lasting impacts on the political and social stability of affected areas. Therefore, public administrators must take a comprehensive approach to decision-making during crises, which prioritizes the needs of affected communities. In addition to prioritizing human life and safety, decisions made during crisis situations should be transparent and accountable. This means that decisions should be communicated clearly to the public, and based on evidence and expert analysis. Decisionmakers must be accountable for their actions and decisions, and should be willing to answer questions and justify their choices. Transparency and accountability are essential for maintaining public trust and ensuring that decisions made during crisis situations are effective and just. International cooperation and coordination are also essential for effective decisionmaking during crisis situations. Decisions should be made in consultation with other governments and international organizations, taking into account international norms and standards. Collaboration with non-governmental organizations and civil society groups can help ensure decisions are informed by the needs of affected communities. Effective international cooperation and coordination can help ensure that decisions made during crisis situations are effective, just, and responsive to the needs of affected communities.

Dr. İslam Safa KAYA Kırıkkale Üniversitesi Email:islamsafakaya@kku.edu.tr ÖZET Devletler, kendi egemenlikleri dahilinde olan iç sular ve karasuları ile yetinmemiş, kendi lehlerine hak ve yetkiler barındıran bitişik bölge, münhasır ekonomik bölge ve kıta sahanlığı alanlarında da egemenliklerini kullanmıştır. Tüm bu deniz alanları dışında kalan ve herhangi bir devletin egemenliğinin söz konusu olmadığı deniz alanı ise ‘açık deniz’ olarak adlandırılmaktadır. Tüm devletlerin ortak kullanımına tabi olan açık denizde, serbestlik ilkesi temel ilkedir. Açık deniz, hiçbir devletin egemenliği altında olmadığından açık denizde bir devletin yargı yetkisinin doğrudan uygulanması söz konusu olmamaktadır. Açık denizde işlenen suçlarda yargı yetkisi tartışmalı olduğu için bu alanda uluslararası işbirliği ve yapılan uluslararası andlaşmalar oldukça önem arz etmektedir. Ceza yetkisi belirlenirken belirli ilkeler ve uluslararası andlaşmalar göz önünde bulundurulmaktadır. Örneğin, 1982 tarihli Birleşmiş Milletler Deniz Hukuku Sözleşmesi, açık denizde işlenen suçlarla mücadele edebilmek için önemli düzenlemeler içermektedir. Ceza yetkisinin belirlendiği ilkelerden biri ‘bayrak yasası’ ilkesidir. Bu ilke gereğince devletler, kendi bayraklarını taşıyan gemiler üzerinde münhasır yetkiye sahip olmaktadır. Dolayısıyla, geminin bayrağını taşıdığı devlet, gemide işlenmiş olan suçlarda ceza yetkisine sahip olabilmekte ve yargılama yapabilmektedir. Açık denizde suç işleyen kişinin, vatandaşı olduğu devlet de, kendi vatandaşı için ceza yetkisine sahip olabilmekte ve yargı yetkisini kullanabilmektedir. Bazı suçların ise, tüm uluslararası toplumun ortak menfaatlerine karşı işlendiği kabul edilmektedir. Söz konusu bu suçlar işlendiğinde evrensel yargı yetkisi dediğimiz ilke devreye girmektedir. Bu suçları işleyen kişiler, herhangi bir devlet tarafından yargılanabilmektedir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Açık deniz, uluslararası suçlar, ceza yetkisi, bayrak yasası, evrensel yargı yetkisi 7 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal CRIMINAL AUTHORITY FOR INTERNATIONAL CRIMES COMMITTED ON THE HIGH SEA ABSTRACT States were not satisfied with the internal waters and territorial waters within their sovereignty. They have also exercised their sovereignty in the contiguous zone, exclusive economic zone and continental shelf areas, which contain rights and powers in their favor. The sea area outside of all these sea areas, where the sovereignty of any state is not in question, is called the 'high sea'. In the high seas, which are subject to the common use of all states, the principle of freedom is fundamental. The high seas are not under the sovereignty of any state. Therefore, there is no direct application of a State's jurisdiction on the high seas. Since jurisdiction over crimes committed on the high seas is controversial, international cooperation and international agreements in this field are of great importance. Specific principles and international agreements are taken into account when determining criminal jurisdiction. For instance, the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea contains important provisions to combat crimes committed on the high seas. One of the principles on which criminal jurisdiction is determined is the principle of 'flag law'. According to this principle, states have exclusive jurisdiction over ships flying their flags. Therefore, the state whose flag the ship flies may have criminal jurisdiction and prosecute crimes committed on board the ship. The state of nationality of the person who commits a crime on the high seas may also have criminal jurisdiction and can exercise jurisdiction over its own nationals. Some crimes are recognized as being committed against the common interests of the entire international community. When such crimes are committed, the principle of universal jurisdiction comes into play. People who have committed such crimes can be prosecuted by any state.

Özellikle 1. ve 2. Dünya Savaşları öncesi dönemde devletler savaşı meşru bir hak olarak gördüğü için bu dönemde savaş tarihin bir parçası haline gelmiştir. Gelişen teknolojik imkanlar, insan nüfusundaki artış ve küresel anlaşmazlıklar sebebiyle 1. ve 2. Dünya savaşları büyük bir insani felakete sebep olmuştur. Dünya kamuoyu artık bu duruma sessiz kalmamayı tercih etmiş ve savaşı meşru bir hak olarak gören geleneği terk ederek savaşı sadece zorunlu durumlarda ve sınırlı bir şekilde uygulanabileceği hukuki bir zemine oturtmaya çalışmıştır. Bunu yaparken savaş suçlarını ve yasaklarını uluslararası sözleşmelerle belirlemiş, bu suç ve yasakların ceza ve yaptırımlarını da belirleyerek bunlara aykırı eylemlerin yargılanacağı yargı organları tesis etmiştir. Bu hukuki reform küresel savaşları engellemiş görünse de bölgesel savaşları engellemede yeterli olamamıştır. Özellikle Bosna’da yaşanan Srebrenitsa Katliamı, ABD’nin Irak’ı İşgali ve Rusya-Ukrayna Savaşı gibi birçok bölgesel savaş gerçekleşmiştir. Savaş suçlarının tespiti ve bu suçların faillerinin yargılanarak cezalandırılması da uygulamada tam anlamıyla etkili olamamaktadır. Bu kapsamda uluslararası savaş hukukunu inceleyip, bu hukuk sisteminin eksik ve aksayan yönlerini tespit ederek çözüm ve öneriler sunmaya çalışacağız.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal APPLICATION OF THE INTERNATIONAL LAW OF WAR ABSTRACT War is unfortunately a reality that has caused countless deaths, destruction and pain throughout history. Especially in the period before the 1st and 2nd World Wars, war became a part of history as states considered war as a legitimate right. Due to developing technological opportunities, increase in human population and global conflicts, the First and Second World Wars caused a great humanitarian disaster. The world public opinion has chosen not to remain silent to this stuation and has abandoned the tradition that considered war as a legitimate right and has tried to place war on a legal basis where it can only be implemented in cases of necessity and in a limited way. While doing this, it determined war crimes and prohibitions with international agreements, determined the penalties and sanctions of these crimes and prohibitions, and established judicial bodies where actions contrary to them would be tried. Although this legal reform seemed to prevent global wars, but it was not sufficient to prevent regional wars. Many regional wars took place, especially the Srebrenica Massacre in Bosnia, the US Occupation of Iraq and the Russia-Ukraine War. The most important reason for this i the detection of war crimes and the prosecution and punishment of the perpetrators of these crimes are not fully effective in practice. In this context, we will examine the international law of war, identify the deficiencies and defects of this legal system and try to offer solutions and suggestions.

Her bir kuşağın kendine özgü karakteristik yapısı vardır ve birbirinden farklıdır. Aynı zamanda çalışma hayatında yer alan kuşakların çalışmadan beklentileri ve çalışmaya yükledikleri anlam da birbirinden farklıdır. Bu farklılıkların bilinmesi çalışma ortamında oldukça önem arz etmektedir. İş gücü piyasasının büyük bir kısmı X, Y ve Z kuşaklarından oluşmaktadır. Her bir kuşağın farklılaşan bireysel değerleri ve bunun etkisi çalışma hayatında da kendini göstermektedir. Bireysel değerler ve çalışma değerlerinde ortaya çıkan bu farklılıklar çatışmalara neden olmaktadır. Her kuşağın birbirini anlaması ve farklılıklarının ne olduğunu bilmesi kuşak çatışmalarını azaltacaktır. Ulusal literatürde, kuşak sınıflandırmaları ve kuşakların karakteristik özelliklerinin ele alınışı uluslararası literatürle benzer şekildedir. Her ülkenin, kültürü, değerleri, inançları gelenek ve görenekleri birbirinden farklıdır. Bu farklılıklar toplumun şekillenmesinde ve onların karakteristik yapısında etkili olmaktadır. Her kuşak bulunduğu dönem içinde kendine özgü siyasal, sosyal ve kültürel olarak bir kimlik oluşturmakta ve bulunduğu dönemin koşullarını yansıtmaktadır. Bu nedenle bu çalışmada kuşak konusu Türkiye özelinde ele alınacaktır. Türkiye’deki ekonomik, tarihsel, ve sosyo-kültürel olaylar dönemsel olarak incelenecek ve kuşaklar üzerindeki etkileri belirlenecektir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GENERATIONS IN THE WORKPLACE AND CHANGING WORK VALUES ABSTRACT Today's working life consists of different generations. These generations are referred to in the literature as the Silent Generation (1925-1945), the Baby Boomers (1946-1964), Generation X (1965-1979), Generation Y (1980-1995), and Generation Z (1995-2010). Each generation has its own unique characteristic structure and differs from one another. At the same time, the expectations from work and the significance attributed to work vary among the generations present in the workforce. The awareness of these differences is highly significant in the work environment. The majority of the workforce consists of Generation X, Y, and Z. The evolving individual values of each generation have an impact on the working life as well. The differences arising in individual values and work values lead to conflicts. Each generation understanding one another and knowing their differences will reduce intergenerational conflicts. In national literature, the classification of generations and the examination of their characteristic features are similarly approached to the international literature. Each country has its own culture, values, beliefs, traditions, and customs that differ from one another. These differences are effective in shaping the society and its characteristic structure. Each generation forms its unique political, social, and cultural identity within the period it exists and reflects the conditions of that period. Therefore, this study will focus on the issue of generations specifically in Türkiye. Economic, historical, and socio-cultural events in Türkiye will be examined periodically, and their effects on generations will be determined. Additionally, the changing work values of generations will be detailedly examined. Keywords: Generation, Work Value, Work 12 VI.

Şüphesiz ki dili kullanan tüm canlı cansız varlıklar arasında en gelişmiş dilsel iletişim sistemine insanoğlu sahiptir. Canlı bir varlık olarak insan nasıl ki yaşamı boyunca karşılaştığı iyi ya da kötü deneyimlere bağlı olarak farklı psikolojik süreçler geçirebiliyor ve bu duygudurum dönemlerine bağlı olarak davranışları değişkenlik gösterebiliyorsa, yaşadığı psikolojik değişikliklere bağlı olarak diğer insanlarla iletişimde kullandığı dilsel eğilimler de farklılaşabilmektedir. Önde gelen birçok ünlü dilbilimci, insan iletişiminin temelinde kullanılan dilsel yapıların insanın maruz kaldığı çevrenin bilişsel algısı ile yakından ilişkili olduğunu savunmaktadır. İnsan iletişim sistemi beyindeki Broca, Wernicke ve Angular Girus gibi dominant dil merkezleri ve dilsel üretimi mükemmel kılmak için sahip olduğumuz dil, dudak, damak, diş, gırtlak ve yutak gibi artikülasyon organlarının varlığı sebebiyle son derece fizyolojik bir yapı barındırmakla beraber aynı zamanda da dil üretimini sağlayabilmek için psikolojik bir alt yapıya sahiptir. Bu açıdan dilin kognitif süreçlerini inceleyen ve dilbilim ile psikolojinin kesişiminde bulunan psikodilbilim alanı, bireylerin psikolojik özelliklerine bağlı olarak gelişen dilsel üretimler üzerinde de durmaktadır. Bu araştırmada, kişilerin maruz kaldıkları çevresel faktörlerin onların psikolojik durumlarına etkileri ve bu etki sonucu bireylerin dil kullanım eğilimlerinin ne şekilde etkilendiği ve ne yönde değiştiği ele alınmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular, bireylerin günlük hayatta yaşadıkları deneyimlerin onların dili linguistikal çerçevede ne şekilde kurguladıkları ve sosyal iletişimde ne şekilde kullandıklarını ortaya çıkarmaktadır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal THE EFFECT OF INDIVIDUALS EMOTIONAL STATES ON LANGUAGE USAGE IN RELATION TO ENVIRONMENTAL INFLUENCES ABSTRACT Communication is a crucial system utilized by living species such as humans and animals, as well as non-living entities like artificial intelligence that has emerged with the advancement of technology. Undoubtedly, among all living and non-living entities using language, humans possess the most advanced linguistic communication system. As living beings, individuals can undergo various psychological processes based on the positive or negative experiences they encounter throughout their lives. The behaviors of individuals can vary depending on these emotional states. Linguistic tendencies used in communication by individuals may differ based on the mood swings related to these emotional states. Many prominent linguists argue that the linguistic structures at the core of human communication are closely linked to the cognitive perception of the environment the individual is exposed to. The human communication system encompasses highly physiological structures such as dominant language centers in the brain like Broca, Wernicke, and Angular Gyrus, as well as articulation organs like the tongue, lips, palate, teeth, larynx, and pharynx, which contribute to perfecting linguistic production. Additionally, it possesses a psychological infrastructure to enable language production. In this regard, the field of psycholinguistics, which examines the cognitive processes of language and intersects with linguistics and psychology, also focuses on linguistic productions that develop based on individuals' psychological characteristics. This study explores the impact of environmental factors on individuals' psychological states and how individuals' language usage tendencies are affected and altered as a result of this influence. The findings reveal how individuals construct their language in a linguistic framework and utilize it in social communication based on their daily experiences.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INFLUENCE OF FOLIAR APPLICATIONS OF CALCIUM ON YIELD AND QUALITY OF HEAD LETTUCE (Lactuca sativa L. var capitata) ABSTRACT Foliar fertilization plays an important role in the development, yield, and quality characteristics of leafy vegetables. This study investigated the effects of foliar-applied calcium nitrate and calcium chloride fertilizers on the yield and quality of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L. var capitata) under greenhouse conditions. Calcium nitrate and calcium chloride fertilizers (at concentrations of 50 ppm, 100 ppm, and 150 ppm) were sprayed on the leaves in three different doses and at three distinct periods. Applications began 15 days after transplanting and were repeated at 10day intervals using a rechargeable back sprayer until the leaves were thoroughly wetted. The study were laid out a randomized complete block design with four replicates. The results shawed that foliar application of calcium nitrate and calcium chloride fertilizers had a positive influence by increasing average head weight, color, pH, and yield. Calcium nitrate fertilizer significantly increased yield at all three doses compared to the control treatment. Similarly, color values improved with foliar application of both fertilizers. However, the effects on TSS, wet weight, and dry weight were not statistically significant. In conclusion, this study suggests that foliar spraying with calcium nitrate and calcium chloride fertilizers can be an effective strategy to enhance the yield and quality of head lettuce.

Etiyoloji ve patogenezi iyi bilinmemekle birlikte FMS’nin oksidatif stres, mitokondriyal fonksiyon bozukluğu, multivitamin eksiklikleri ve oksidanlar/ antioksidanlar arasındaki orantısızlığın bu sendroma sebep olduğu düşünülmektedir. Hastalık başlangıç ve devamı, hastalığın seyrini ve yaşam kalitesini olumsuz yönde etkileyen genetik/biyolojik ve psikososyal faktörler ile yakından ilişkilidir. Ayrıca FMS, kronik yorgunluk sendromu, irritabl bağırsak sendromu, fonksiyonel dispepsi, miyojenik temporomandibular bozukluk, gerilim baş ağrısı, miyofasiyal ağrı sendromu, huzursuz bacak sendromu, interstisyel sistit, mesane ağrısı sendromu, travma sonrası stres bozukluğu ile de ilişkili olan karmaşık bir sendromdur. Hastalık tanısına ilişkin herhangi bir objektif test veya biyobelirteç tanımlanmamış olmakla birlikte bu hastalarda tek başına farmakolojik tedavi yetersizdir. Ağrıya neden olan farklı mekanizmalar göz önüne alındığında, kronik ağrının periferik, merkezi, bilişsel-duygusal ve kişilerarası nedenlerini hedef alan multidisipliner programlar ile tedavi edilmesi uygun olmaktadır. Bu popülasyondaki duygusal semptomların tedavi edilmesi ile, bilişsel durumdaki bozulma devam etse bile, dikkat süreçlerindeki iyileşmenin artacağı gösterilmiştir. FMS’li hastalarda aerobik ve dirençli egzersizler, elektroterapi yöntemleri, hidroterapi, balneoterapi, manipülasyon, kayropraktik yöntemler, biofeedback, hipnoz, duyusal tedaviler, magnetoterapi, masaj, bilişsel davranışçı terapi, farmakolojik ajanlar, akupunktur, zihin beden tedavileri, hiper barik oksijen tedavisi, optik sinir stimülasyonu, lidokain infüzyonu, melatonin, koenzim Q10, D ve E vitaminleri takviyesi ile palmitoiletanolamid uygulanması gibi çok çeşitli tedavi yaklaşımları hastalık semptomlarında iyileşmeye neden olacağı bilinmektedir. Bu bağlamda FMS’nin tedavisinde multidisipliner bir bakış açısıyla interdisipliner bir yaklaşım hastalık semptomları azaltmakta etkili olacaktır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal CURRENT TREATMENT APPROACHES IN FIBROMYALGIA SYNDROME ABSTRACT Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is a common chronic, idiopathic condition clinically characterized by musculoskeletal pain, decreased muscle strength and endurance, general deconditioning, loss of joint range of motion, soft tissue tenderness, stiffness, general fatigue and sleep disorders. Although the etiology and pathogenesis of FMS are not well known, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, multivitamin deficiencies and disproportion between oxidants / antioxidants are thought to cause this syndrome. The onset and continuation of the disease are closely related to genetic/biological and psychosocial factors that negatively affect the course of the disease and quality of life. In addition, FMS, chronic fatigue syndrome, irritable bowel syndrome, functional dyspepsia, myogenic temporomandibular disorder, tension headache, myofascial pain syndrome, irritable It is a complex syndrome that is also associated with leg syndrome, interstitial cystitis, bladder pain syndrome, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Although no objective test or biomarker has been defined for the diagnosis of the disease, pharmacological treatment alone is inadequate in these patients. Considering the different mechanisms that cause pain, it is appropriate to treat chronic pain with multidisciplinary programs targeting peripheral, central, cognitive-emotional and interpersonal causes. It has been shown that by treating emotional symptoms in this population, improvement in attentional processes will increase, even if impairment in cognitive status persists. In patients with FMS, aerobic and resistant exercises, electrotherapy methods, hydrotherapy, balneotherapy, manipulation, chiropractic methods, biofeedback, hypnosis, sensory treatments, magnetotherapy, massage, cognitive behavioral therapy, pharmacological agents, acupuncture, mind-body treatments, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, It is known that a wide variety of treatment approaches, such as optic nerve stimulation, lidocaine infusion, melatonin, coenzyme Q10, vitamins D and E supplementation, and administration of palmitoylethanolamide, will lead to improvement in disease symptoms. In this context, an interdisciplinary approach from a multidisciplinary perspective in the treatment of FMS will be effective in reducing disease symptoms.

Çocukluk çağında egzersiz yapma alışkanlığı bilişsel, duygusal, fiziksel ve psikolojik gelişime, yetişkinlik çağında yapılan egzersize göre daha çok etkilidir. Bunun sebebi, bireylerin hareket ve yaşam tarzı gelişimi ve öğrenmenin çocukluk çağlarında daha kolay olmasıdır. Günümüz teknolojik olanakların hızla gelişmesi, beden gücüyle gerçekleştirilen birçok eylemin artık tamamen teknolojik olanaklar kullanılarak kolaylıkla yapılması ve sedanter yaşamın yaygınlaşması çocukluk çağlarında bile obezite, diyabet, inme, yüksek tansiyon, osteoporoz ve koroner hastalıkların görülme sıklığında artışa sebep olmuştur. Dünya Sağlık Örgütü verilerine göre kronik hastalıklardaki artışın risk faktörleri coğrafyalara göre değişmekle birlikte, yüksek gelirli ülkelerdeki en büyük risk faktörü fiziksel inaktivite ve yüksek kolesteroldür. Egzersiz ve yüksek fiziksel aktivite düzeyi ile diyabet, koroner kalp hastalığı, inme, yüksek tansiyon, osteoporoz, kolon kanseri riski, depresyon, kaygı ve aşırı stres bulguları azalmaktadır. Düzenli fiziksel aktivite ve spor yapan çocuklarda olumlu benlik saygısı, beden imgesi değerlendirmesi, kendilik algısı ve mental dayanıklılığın gelişmesinin kolaylaştığı bilinmektedir. Ayrıca sigara, alkol, uyuşturucu madde ve ilaç kullanım sıklıkları daha düşük, birine zarar verme ve bir şeyleri kırıp dökme isteklerinin daha az, ders çalışma, kitap gazete okuma ve akademik performans oranlarının daha yüksek olduğu gözlenmektedir. Amerikan Pediatri Akademisi, 2 yaşın altındaki çocuklar için ekran başında zaman geçirilmemesini, 2 yaşın üzerinde ise bu sürenin 1-2 saat ile kısıtlanmasını önermektedir. Bunların dışında özellikle sosyal çevrede çocuklar için aerobik egzersize uygun alanlar oluşturulması için belediyelerle iş birliği içinde olunmalı ve ilgili birimler bu konularda teşvik edilmelidir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal BENEFITS OF EXERCISE FOR CHILDREN ABSTRACT Exercise can be defined as regular physical activities that result in energy expenditure using muscle and joint movements. The habit of exercising in childhood is more effective on cognitive, emotional, physical and psychological development than exercise in adulthood. The reason for this is that individuals' movement and lifestyle development and learning are easier in childhood. The rapid development of today's technological opportunities, the fact that many actions performed with physical strength are now easily performed using technological facilities, and the spread of sedentary life has led to an increase in the incidence of obesity, diabetes, stroke, high blood pressure, osteoporosis and coronary diseases, even in childhood. According to World Health Organization data, although the risk factors for the increase in chronic diseases vary by geography, the biggest risk factors in high-income countries are physical inactivity and high cholesterol. With exercise and high physical activity levels, diabetes, coronary heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, osteoporosis, colon cancer risk, depression, anxiety and excessive stress symptoms decrease. It is known that the development of positive self-esteem, body image evaluation, self-perception and mental endurance is facilitated in children who engage in regular physical activity and sports. In addition, it is observed that the frequency of cigarette, alcohol, drug and medication use is lower, the desire to harm someone and break things is less, and the rates of studying, reading books and newspapers and academic performance are higher. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children under the age of 2 not spend time in front of the screen, and for children over the age of 2, this time should be limited to 1-2 hours. Apart from these, cooperation should be made with municipalities to create areas suitable for aerobic exercise for children, especially in the social environment, and relevant units should be encouraged on these issues.

Buğday, önemli besin maddeleri içeren, özellikle de karbonhidrat, protein, lif, vitaminler ve mineraller bakımından zengin bir üründür. Yeterli buğday üretimi, bir ülkenin kendi nüfusunu besleyebilmesi ve dışa bağımlılığın azaltılması bakımından önemlidir. Dünya buğday üretiminin ülkelere göre dağılışındaki farklılıklar, birçok etkenin bir araya gelmesi sonucunda ortaya çıkar. İklim, toprak özellikleri, tarım politikaları, teknolojik kapasite, sulama sistemleri, ticaret politikaları ve ekonomik koşullar bu faktörler arasında yer almaktadır. Bu sebeple, dünya genelinde buğday üretimi belirli bölgelerde yoğunlaşabilir veya azalabilir. Buğday üretiminin dağılımındaki farklılıkları anlamak, hem yerel hem de küresel gıda güvenliği stratejileri için önemlidir. Bu çalışmada, OECD (Ekonomik İşbirliği ve Kalkınma Örgütü), ülkelerindeki buğday üretimi ve söz konusu ülkelerin buğday üretiminde kendine yeterlilik seviyeleri araştırılmıştır. OECD, dünya genelinde ekonomik işbirliği ve kalkınma konularında bir araya gelen 38 ülkeden oluşmaktadır. Araştırmanın ana materyalini Birleşmiş Milletler Gıda ve Tarım Örgütünün (FAO) 2020 yılına ilişkin buğday verileri oluşturmaktadır. 38 OECD ülkesinden İzlanda ve Kosta Rika ülkeleri için belirtilen dönemde FAO’da veri bulunmadığı için veriler 36 ülke üzerinden analiz edilmiştir. Belirtilen dönemde üretim miktarında ABD, ithalat miktarında Türkiye, ihracat miktarında Kanada, hektara buğday veriminde Yeni Zelanda’nın ilk sırada yer aldığı belirlenmiştir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal WHEAT PRODUCTION AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY LEVELS OF OECD COUNTRIES ABSTRACT Wheat production is important for global food security, economic development and agricultural sustainability. Wheat is an important source of nutrients, in particular carbohydrates, protein, fibre, vitamins and minerals. Adequate wheat production is important for a country's ability to feed its own population and can be a factor in the reduction of external dependence. Many factors combine to determine how wheat is produced in different parts of the world. These factors include climate, soil characteristics, agricultural policy, technological capabilities, irrigation schemes, trade policy and economic conditions. When these factors come together, the world's wheat production can be concentrated in certain regions or can be reduced. It is important for both local and global food security strategies to understand differences in the distribution of wheat production. This study looked at wheat production in OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) countries. It also looked at the degree of selfsufficiency in wheat production in these countries. The OECD consists of 38 countries that work together on economic cooperation and development issues around the world. The main material used in the research is the wheat data for the year 2020 from the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO). Out of the 38 OECD countries, data for Iceland and Costa Rica were analysed for 36 countries, as the FAO did not have any data for the period in question. Over the period, the United States was the first country in terms of production, Turkey was the first in terms of imports, Canada was the first in terms of exports and New Zealand was the first in terms of wheat yield per hectare. The countries with the highest degree of selfsufficiency in wheat production were Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia, which have small populations. Colombia, South Korea and Portugal were the countries with the lowest level of self-sufficiency in wheat. The results of this study are intended to help the countries concerned to make more effective decisions in the formulation of agricultural policies and extension strategies related to wheat, the optimisation and sustainability of agricultural practices and the implementation of trade and marketing plans.

It provides employment opportunities in many areas from the production stage until it is ready for consumption. Since it is such an economically important product, it is tried to be grown in every area where it can be cultivated. In recent years, there has been a rapid increase in production areas in Şırnak province and its districts. In parallel with this increase in area, problems related to plant protection arise. Plant protection problems that may arise in pistachio fields should be combated in a timely and technically appropriate manner. In many scientific studies conducted in pistachio fields, it has been reported that Pistachio Psyllid [Agonoscena pistaciae Burck. and Laut.) is one of the most common and intensive pests. The pest, which does its main damage by sucking plant sap during the nymph stage, also causes fumagin formation. With its damage, it causes early and dense fall of leaves and prevents the fruits from filling. Especially in the pistachio fields located in Şırnak Center, Güçlükonak, İdil and Silopi districts, pistachio trees should be controlled from mid-April when pistachio trees start to leaf out and when 20-30 nymphs per compound leaf are seen, it is necessary to decide to fight against A. Pistaciae and spraying should be done. Determination of the prevalence, damage status and contamination rate of A. pistaciae, which is a potential main pest for pistachio orchards established and to be established in Şırnak province and its districts, will form the basis for the Integrated Pistachio Control studies to be carried out in this province.

Ushinsky", Odessa, Ukraine Alexander PLAKIDA State Institution «Ukrainian Research Institute of Medical Rehabilitation and Resort Therapy of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine», Odessa, Ukraine ABSTRACT Robotic systems usage in the rehabilitation of gunshot and mine-explosive wounds of the upper limb is an evidence-based method that improves function and quality of life. Polytrauma, including traumas of extremities, occupies first place in the structure of primary permeable wounds. Injuries of the upper extremities are often accompanied by damage to peripheral nerves. Such injuries significantly increase the duration of rehabilitation and lead to further disability and decreasing in quality of life.We reviewed a clinical case of long-term staged rehabilitation after a mine explosion wound of the left upper limb, complicated by posttraumatic neuritis of the left radial, ulnar and median nerves and significant loss of limb function (loss of function of left hand, flexion contracture of the left elbow joint etc.) in 45 years old man with a diagnosis of gunshot fragmentation wound of the lower third of the left shoulder with a gunshot multi-fragment intra-articular fracture of the distal epimetaphysis of the left humerus. The examination revealed a significant decrease in muscle strength of the left upper limb up to 1-2 points, pain during movements up to 6-7 points due to VAS, almost complete limitation of movements in the left elbow and wrist joints, limitation of movements in the left shoulder joint, impaired sensitivity, and edema syndrome in the lower third of the forearm, impaired grasping function. Outpatient rehabilitation was carried out, and the volume of rehabilitation assistance was high. Rehabilitation was carried out in three courses of 18–21 days with breaks of 1–2 weeks over a long period. Rehabilitation includes: physical therapy, ergotherapy, physical modalities (laser, ultrasound, electrotherapy), and medicines to reduce pain, edema and inflammation. During the 1st rehabilitation course, a robotic Smart glove was used, and in the 2nd and 3rd courses, Uрреr Limb Intelligent Feedback and Training System was additionally used.

Email: psi.sh@rmkec.ac.in ABSTRACT Modern flight control systems rely heavily on linear algebra for real-time decision making. These systems model the complex dynamics of an aircraft using systems of linear equations. Each equation relates the aircraft's state, including position, velocity, and orientation, to the control inputs like movements of ailerons, elevators, and rudders. Solving these systems in realtime allows the control system to predict how the aircraft will respond to pilot commands or external disturbances. By analyzing these equations, engineers can design control laws that ensure stability and efficient flight paths. Linear algebra's ability to represent relationships between flight parameters and efficiently solve complex systems makes it a cornerstone of modern flight control technology, contributing to safe and smooth air travel.

SALAH Department of Mathematics, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University, Aurangabad (M.S.), India.” ABSTRACT The authors have proposed a new mathematical model to analyze the effects of stem cell transplantation on HIV-1-infected patients. The model employs a system of first-order nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The equations represent five main populations: stem cells, free HIV viral particles, productively infected T cells (actively producing new virus), infected T cells in the eclipse phase (infected but not yet producing virus), and uninfected T cells. This mathematical modelling approach can be utilized to study the interactions between transplanted stem cells and the dynamics of HIV infection within the patient’s T cell population. By developing these novel differential equations, the authors aim to gain insights into how stem cell transplantation may impact disease progression in individualspositive for HIV-1. In this study, the conformable fractional derivative (CFD) of order ϱin conjunction with the LC operator of order ρ is employed to develop the model. Fixed-point theorems were utilized to prove the existence and uniqueness of the solutions to this model. The study discusses the stability of the mathematical model and equilibrium points. Adam Moulton’s method was used to find an approximate solution to the given model. The study also examined the effects of changing the ϱ and ρ values. The study found that there is convergence in solution curves when altering ϱ while maintaining a constant ρ value, in contrast to what it observed when changing the value of ρ and preserving the ϱ value constant. Keywords: Conformable derivative; Fixed point theorem; Adams-Moulton approach. 36 VI.

The Bengal Partition of 1947 carved the region into East Bengal, a part of Pakistan, and West Bengal, which remained a part of India. This division based on religious lines led to immense communal violence and mass migrations. The Namasudra Dalits, primarily residing in East Bengal, were profoundly affected by this partition. Many were forced to leave their ancestral lands, facing displacement, violence, and a loss of identity. The Bangladesh Partition of 1971 was another pivotal moment, resulting in the formation of the independent nation of Bangladesh. This partition, arising from the Bangladesh Liberation War, brought further turmoil to the Namasudra Dalit community. The conflict and subsequent partition led to widespread violence, displacement, and an erosion of their socio-economic standing. These partitions had a lasting impact on the lives of the Namasudra Dalit community. Displaced from their homes and facing discrimination in both East and West Bengal, they struggled to rebuild their lives. The loss of land and livelihoods exacerbated their already marginalized status, pushing many into poverty and vulnerability. In his autobiography ‘Interrogating My Chandal Life,’ Manoranjan Byapari offers a poignant account of these partition shadows and the Dalit identity crisis. Byapari, a Namasudra Dalit himself, vividly portrays the struggles, discrimination, and resilience of his community amidst the chaos of partition. Through his personal narrative, he sheds light on the profound impacts of these historical events on the lives of the Namasudra Dalits, highlighting their quest for identity and dignity.

Atmosferde bitkilerin yararlanamayacağı formda oldukça yüksek düzeylerde azot bulunmasına rağmen, topraklarda bitkilerin yararlanabileceği formdaki azotun miktarı genel olarak çok düşüktür. Atmosferde bulunan azottan canlıların büyük bir bölümü doğrudan doğruya yararlanamazlar. Organizmaların büyük bir bölümü azotu ancak suda erimiş nitrat veya amonyum iyonları halinde topraktan alabilmektedir. Doğada oldukça hareketli olan azot, toprak ile atmosfer arasında canlı organizmalar (biyolojik yolla); endüstriyel faaliyetler, şimşek çakma, yıldırım düşme gibi atmosferik olaylarla sürekli bir dolanım halindedir. Biyolojik yolla yarayışlı azotun toprağa bağlanmasında etkili olan mikroorganizmaların başlıcaları; toprakta serbest yaşayan aktinomisetler, mavi-yeşil algler, clostridiumlar ve baklagil köklerinde ortak yaşayan(simbiyoz) Rhizobium türü bakterilerdir. Bunların en önemlileri, konak seçici Rhizobium bakterileri olup, Leguminosae (Baklagiller) familyasındaki bitkilerle birlikte bulunur ve bu bitkilerin köklerinde nodüller oluşturarak atmosfer azotunu toprağa fikse ederler. Bu gruba giren baklagillerin simbiyotik yaşam sürdükleri bitkiler ve bu bitkilere özgü bakteri türleri birbirlerinden belirgin olarak farklıdır. Bu nedenle yeni baklagil ekilen bir alanda, ürün artışını önemli derecede sağlayan uygun bakteri ile aşılama yapılması önerilmektedir. Pek çok toprakta nodül bakterilerinin sayısı veya kalitesi yeterli olmamaktadır. Bu koşullarda toprak veya tohumun etkinliği yüksek olan Rhizobium kültürleriyle aşılanması gereklidir. Aşılama: Azot tespit etmek yönünden baklagil bitkilerinin köklerinde yumrucuk meydana getirebilecek etkili bakteri suş veya suşlarının toprağa/tohuma verilmesidir. Her baklagil bitkisi için özel bakteri grubu olduğu gibi, her grup içerisinde de azot tespit etme yönünden etkili veya etkisiz suşlar bulunmaktadır. Etkisiz suşlar, yumrucuk meydana getirmelerine karşılık azot tespit etme güçleri çok düşüktür. Bu nedenle, çeşitli bitkiler için etkili suşların bulunup üretilmesi zorunludur. Anahtar Kelimeler: Bakteri aşılama, Biyolojik azot fiksasyonu, İnokülasyon, Rhizobium bakterisi. 59 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INOCULATION SEQUENCE IN SOIL AND SEED ABSTRACT Nitrogen has an important place in living life because it combines with carbon-containing substances in cell composition to form various organic compounds such as amino acids, amides, proteins, vitamins and hormones. Although there are quite high levels of nitrogen in the atmosphere in the form that plants cannot utilise, the amount of nitrogen in the form that plants can utilise in soils is generally very low. Most of the living organisms cannot directly utilise the nitrogen in the atmosphere. Most of the organisms can only take nitrogen from the soil in the form of nitrate or ammonium ions dissolved in water. Nitrogen, which is highly mobile in nature, is in a continuous circulation between the soil and the atmosphere by living organisms (biologically) and atmospheric events such as industrial activities, lightning strikes and lightning strikes. The main microorganisms that are effective in the binding of biologically useful nitrogen to the soil are actinomycetes, blue-green algae, clostridium and Rhizobium bacteria that live freely in the soil and symbiosis in legume roots. The most important of these are host-selective Rhizobium bacteria, which coexist with plants of the Leguminosae family and fix atmospheric nitrogen into the soil by forming nodules on the roots of these plants.The plants with which the legumes in this group live symbiotically and the bacterial species specific to these plants are distinctly different from each other. For this reason, it is recommended to inoculate a newly planted legume area with the appropriate bacteria, which significantly increases the yield. In many soils, the number or quality of nodule bacteria is not sufficient. Under these conditions, it is necessary to inoculate the soil or seed with highly effective Rhizobium cultures. Inoculation: In terms of nitrogen fixation, it is the introduction of effective bacterial strains or strains that can form nodules in the roots of legume plants into the soil/seed. As there is a special group of bacteria for each legume plant, there are effective or ineffective strains within each group in terms of nitrogen fixation. Although ineffective strains form nodules, their nitrogen fixing power is very low. Therefore, it is necessary to find and produce effective strains for various plants.

SANDEEP Department of Mathematics, School of Physical Sciences, Central University of Karnataka, Kalaburagi-585367, India Email:nsandeep@cuk.ac.in ABSTRACT In thermal power and manufacturing processes, solar energy has grown extensively utilized. This work investigates the heat diffusion characteristics of an Unsteady Oldroyd B hybrid nano liquid across an expanding cylinder to improve the Parabolic Trough Solar Collector (PTSC) heat transfer efficiency. A stable magnetic field is used in the radial path in the appearance of radiant heating and general generating or absorbing heat with the Cattaneo-Christov (CC) heat flow model. A hybrid nano liquid composed of two distinct nanoparticles, CoFe2O4 and Fe3O4, embedded in ethylene glycol as the primary fluid, is used to formulate the mathematical model. The mathematical model is then reconstructed into a nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) system, utilizing the proper likeness transformation. The MATLAB software function bvp5c is employed to arrive at a numerical solution to the posed problem. We observed the fluctuations in the flow and thermal area, as well as the local Nusselt number, impacted by the pertinent dimensionless characteristics. The findings are addressed graphically and tabularly for several nanoparticle shapes (spherical, brick, and platelet). It has been discovered that spherical shapes have a faster heat conduction rate than brick and platelet nanoparticle shapes. While unsteadiness parameters tend to increase the temperature field, the augmentation of the temperature relaxation factor reduces the energy profile.

We delve into the associated fixed point problem arising from this innovative generalized system of extended nonlinear variational inequalities. To address this problem, we propose explicit iterative methods with k steps, incorporating projection operators. Leveraging the equivalent fixed point problem, we advocate the utilization of k-steps Gauss-Seidel-type iterative algorithms to derive an approximate solution for the system under consideration. Convergence results for these newly introduced k-step explicit iterative methods are established. Additionally, the paper explores specific instances of the extended variational inequalities system as special cases.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INFLUENCING FACTORS ON THE ORIGIN OF MUSICAL SOUNDS AND VOWELS Dr. Serenenen ALTAN-UYA Citi University, 14190 Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia Email: Altanuya68@gmail.com ABSTRACT The creation of Mother Nature is the conscious man. In connection with the birth of this perfect human being, the first forms of interaction between nature and human sounds were formed, and the first cultural forms such as dance, music, and writing developed over thousands of years. Human and natural sounds are the sources of factors that influence the formation of musical sounds. Sound is a physical phenomenon that humans and animals hear, and is a wave that vibrates through solids, liquids, and gases. Humans are capable of hearing sounds in the range of 20-20,000 Hertz, and the process of human sound has evolved over 20,000-30,000 years through the stages of family, tribe, and ethnicity. As early humans communicated with each other through sound, intelligence developed and language emerged. The famous English scientist Charles Darwin wrote in his book &quot; On the Origin of Species & quot; 150 years ago that &quot;the sounds of birds are somewhat similar to human sounds.&quot; Darwin&#39;s theory was supported by Shiner Miyagawa, a scientist from Japan, who noted that & quot;it seems that ancient people imitated the chirping of birds and made various sounds. International linguists agree that &quot; Language is a whole system of gestures, rules, signs, pronunciations, and words that communicate with each other that convey common human understanding, ideas, and meanings.&quot; As language developed, so did the need for people to write down what they were thinking and what they wanted to say. Human history has survived to this day thanks to the origins of literacy, but it has often flourished and perished. Linguists divide the origin of ancient writing into the following periods: sign language, gestural signs, pictorial signs, semantic signs, phonetic signs, perfect signs, conventional signs, pronouns, etc. Influenced by these factors, modern music led to the historical stage of vowel marking. Keywords: human, sounds, talk, letters, musical sounds 63 VI.

Email: mateus.finco@academico.ufpb.br ABSTRACT What does made someone get up early and feel good with themselves? The motivation. For many tasks, the brain needs to produce what moves us. In the university, there is a natural competition to be better than our classmates. The students are involved in projects beyond the classroom with the aim of getting better opportunities at university. However, it is important to note that this motivation can be an important factor in the job market that students may face in the future. It is for this reason that it is essential to prepare for competition in the job market right from university. Cognitive maturation requires students to take responsibility when it comes to participating in university projects. Making compromises during this period is the first step towards understanding the rules of coexistence and ensuring a better working environment. The objective of this study is to examine how motivated students are when they join and actively participate in extracurricular activities offered at their educational institution - seeing that gaining this experience can prevent the frustration and anxiety that the demands of a job can bring, and what impact the experience has on the job market. The first step to analyze these impacts will be to interview students from different courses. Interviewing those who participate, those who do not participate and questioning them how experience in acquiring this previous knowledge can help them in the job market. Those who do not participate tend to have difficulties in finding better opportunities and, consequently, those who participate will have more opportunities due to the contacts that are made during the participation in these projects. In the end, it is expected to understand the results of an experience acquired at the university, before entering the job market. Aiming to improve the quality of life of students, avoiding anxiety and promoting motivation in the execution of tasks. In addition to promoting the extracurricular opportunities that the university environment provides to students the various benefits of participating in projects.

Email:tsehili@yahoo.fr ABSTRACT This study consisted of a comparative study of the photocatalytic performance of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) synthesized through two distinct green methods: hydrothermal synthesis and co-precipitation in the presence of Retama (RT) plant extract. The hydrothermal method involved the use of water-based solvents and controlled temperature-pressure conditions, while the co-precipitation method utilized aqueous solutions form RT-ZnO NPs. The nanoparticles were characterized using various analytical techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), and the point of zero charge (PZC). Subsequently, the synthesized RT-ZnO nanoparticles were tested for their photocatalytic efficiency, specifically their ability to degrade the herbicide Linuron (LNR) in pure water using UV light under various conditions. The kinetics of LNR photodegradation were also studied. RT-ZnO NPs synthesized via hydrothermal synthesis and co-precipitation demonstrated an effective degradation rate of approximately 90% and 100% for LNR (2 x 105 M) at neutral pH (pH=7.21) under UV light, respectively. These results highlighted variations in photocatalytic activity between the ZnO nanoparticles produced using the two different green synthesis routes. The findings revealed that RT-ZnO nanoparticles prepared through the hydrothermal method exhibited superior photocatalytic efficiency compared to those synthesized by co-precipitation. The study suggests that the synthesis method significantly affects the photocatalytic performance of ZnO, offering insights into optimizing eco-friendly approaches for producing highly efficient photocatalysts for environmental remediation applications. This comparative analysis sheds light on the potential and limitations of different green synthesis methods in achieving enhanced photocatalytic efficiency in ZnO nanoparticles to be used in the treatment of wastewater.

Email:tsehili@yahoo.fr ABSTRACT The presence of emerging contaminants such as pharmaceuticals in natural waters has raised increasing concern due to their frequent appearance and persistence in the aquatic ecosystem and the threat to health and safety of aquatic life, even at trace concentrations. Subsequently, it is essential to develop new technologies that can efficiently eliminate such contaminants from the wastewater. Photocatalytic degradation in the presence of light is one of the most advanced and efficient technologies for wastewater decontamination due to simple, economical, and ecofriendly process. Many photocatalysts such as metal oxides, sulfides, and other semiconductors are used for wastewater treatment. Recently, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) possess fascinating photocatalytic applications with their unique properties of ultra-high surface area, high porosity, and controllable chemical properties and strong stability Iron based metal organic framework using a di-carboxylate linker succinic acid (Fe-SA MOF), was synthesized using co-precipitation method and characterized by the point of zero charge (PZC) it was examined for the photocatalytic degradation of a pharmaceutical polluant namely Ibuprofen (IBP) via photo-Fenton process.Fe-SA MOF exhibited highest degradation of 75% in 150 min at natural pH (4.5) in the presence of 0.25 g L-1 of the synthesized catalysts under UV-Visible is light. The as-prepared Fe-SA MOF was applied for photo-Fenton oxidation of Ibuprofene (IBP).It exhibited efficient photo-Fenton catalytic degradation upon visible light irradiation . The IBP (5.10-5 M) was completely degraded within 150 min under UV-visible light with the aid of FeSA MOF (0.25 g/L) and H2O2 (10-3 M) in aqueous solution (pH = 4.5).

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INFLUENCE OF DIRECTORS COMPENSATION ON EARNINGS MANAGEMENT PRACTICES IN THE NIGERIAN BANKING SECTOR Muinat Wuraola SALAWU Department of Accounting, Faculty of Management Sciences, University of Lagos Moruff Adeyemi SALAWU Department of Accounting Education, School of Business Education, Federal College of Education (Technical), Akoka ABSTRACT The study evaluated the influence of director compensation on earnings management (EM) practices within the Nigerian banking sector. This stems from the fact that, while compensation contracts have been proposed as one tool for ensuring that both executive directors and nonexecutive directors (NEDs) effectively monitor the organization's affairs, they may induce EM practices due to being tied to accounting earnings (e.g. bonuses) or stock prices (e.g. stock based compensation). The adjusted population of eleven listed commercial banks was used as the census sampling method was employed. Anchored on the agency theory, the study measured directors compensation using a mix of executive directors and NEDs compensation while EM practices was proxied by discretionary provision for loan loss (DPLLs) measured using the Beaver and Engel (1996) model. Using the Ordinary least square regression, all forms of directors compensation except executive compensation were found to have positive effect on EM practices of the studied banks which shows that regulating compensation of directors should be a focus for regulatory agencies. Although only NEDs fees and allowances was found to significantly affect EM practices while other compensation variables has an insignificant effect on EM practices. The study thus recommended a shift of focus from just Chairmans compensation to include the totality of NEDs compensation and an institution of guidelines for mandatory disclosure of directors compensation.

It is particularly important to study barriers to establishing emotional connections during adolescence. Understanding the relationship between locus of control and emotional contact may contribute to the development of effective youth psychological support strategies. The research aims to elucidate the features of barriers to establishing emotional contacts in adolescents with different loci of control. The sample consists of 96 adolescents, including 49 females (51%) and 47 males (49%). The average age of respondents is 20 years old. In the majority of surveyed adolescents, namely 90.6%, an external locus of control prevails, while 9.4% of young men exhibit an internal locus. When considering internality in spheres such as failures, family relations, work relationships, health, and illness, externality predominates critically, whereas in the spheres of achievements and interpersonal relationships, the values of externality and internality are approximately balanced. The indicators of barriers to establishing emotional contacts in adolescents are at a fairly high level. Half of the study participants have a high level of barriers to establishing emotional contacts in interpersonal communication, significantly deteriorating the quality of communication with their environment. One-quarter of respondents have an average level of barriers, and another quarter is distributed across moderate and low levels of barriers to establishing emotional contacts. Regarding the relationship between internality level and barriers to establishing emotional contacts in adolescents, the following features were identified: 1) among young men with an external locus of control, a high level of barriers to establishing emotional contacts prevails; 2) among young men with an internal locus of control, the average level of these barriers predominates. A reverse relationship between internality and the level of barriers to establishing emotional contacts in adolescents was established. That is, as the level of internality increases, the level of barriers decreases. Keywords: emotional contact, locus of control, externality, internality. 68 VI.

The results show that crude kieselguhr is formed of several components and in particular silica, alumina and calcium carbonates occupying time the surface of the pores of the material in question. To this end we have made of chemical and thermal treatments on natural porous diatomite to improve the quality and valued these materials, the chemical activation was performed with sulfuric acid and nitric acid. Another thermal activation was conducted at two temperatures, 800 ° C and 1000 ° C. The results showed that this activation has a significant effect on the average pore diameter. This was presumably attributed to the elimination of carbonates which leads to the improvement of the porous structure of the diatomite. These characterizations prepared and processed materials were performed in different laboratories. Particular attention was paid to the identification of the effect of the activation of the diatomite on these features by linking with the adsorbent properties in perspective prepared materials will be used in the water treatment field.

Four varieties of diatomite were distinguished, characterized, and successfully used to adsorb methylene blue dye in aqueous medium. Several properties and characteristics of diatomite have been outlined using analytical methods such as X-ray fluorescence spectrometry, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), N2 adsorption–desorption (BET), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), as well as other complementary analysis tests. Results showed that silica and calcium carbonates were the main constituents of the diatomite samples (ranging between 32.8 and 61.5% for SiO2; and 13.8–25.9% for CaO), with a slight difference in chemical composition between selected samples. Typical for all diatomite samples, the XRD analysis suggests a high mass quantity of amorphous phase (Opal); high content of crystal phase was also registered. FTIR allowed determining the basic characteristic silica bands regarding diatomite samples. While the BET and SEM investigations revealed that the studied diatomite material has a highly porous structure and was very rich in diatoms. The maximum adsorption capacity of methylene blue that was calculated from the Langmuir isotherm model was 116.59 mg/g. The diatomite deposit may find promising applications as low-cost adsorbent for dyes removal from water. Keywords: diatomite; Characterization; Adsorption, Mechanism. 70 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INFLUENCE OF CORTISOL ON THE FIBRIL FORMATION KINETICS OF A 42 PEPTIDE: A MULTI-TECHNICAL APPROACH Marilena CARBONE University or Rome Tor Vergata, Department of Chemical Science and Technologies, Rome, Italy. Email:carbone@uniroma2.it ABSTRACT Amyloidpeptide (A ) aggregates are known to be correlated with pathological neurodegenerative diseases. The fibril formation process of such peptides in solution is influenced by several factors, such as the ionic strength of the buffer, concentration, pH, and presence of other molecules, just to mention a few. In this paper, we report a detailed analysis of in vitro A 42 fibril formation in the presence of cortisol at different relative concentrations. The thioflavin T fluorescence assay allowed us to monitor the fibril formation kinetics, while a morphological characterization of theaggregates was obtained by atomic force microscopy. Moreover, infrared absorption spectroscopy was exploited to investigate the secondary structure changes along the fibril formation path. Molecular dynamics calculations allowed us to understand the intermolecular interactions with cortisol. The combined results demonstrated the influence of cortisol on the fibril formation process: indeed, at cortisol-A 42 concentration ratio ( ) close to 0.1 a faster organization of A 42 fragments into fibrils is promoted, while for = 1 the formation of fibrils is completely inhibited.

The research reveals the zwitterionic (zw-type) nature of these reactions, unveiling a one-step mechanism with activation enthalpies ranging from 8.80 to 14.37 kcal mol−1 in acetonitrile and ethanol solvents. The reaction with (4b) produces two regioisomeric pathways leading to products P1,5-4b and P1,4-4b, while reactions with (5b) and (6b) result in the formation of a single product. Topological analysis categorizes the nitrone as a zwitterionic three-atom component (TAC), and conceptual density functional theory (CDFT) indices classify the 32CA reactions as forward electron density flux (FEDF) reactions. Further insights from Bond Evolution Theory (BET) indicate that the formation of new C-C and C-O covalent bonds does not initiate in the transition states but occurs in intermediate stages, displaying pseudoradical centers of atoms already engaged in bonding.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal A COMPARITIVE ANALYSIS OF ENFORCEMENT OF INVESTMENT ARBITRATION AWARDS IN INDIA, UK AND USA Ananya LAMBA Symbiosis International University Email:ananya.lamba@symlaw.edu.in Adwita MANOCHA Symbiosis International University Email:adwita.manocha@symlaw.edu.in Sanidhya MUKUND Symbiosis International University Email:sanidhya.merc@gmail.com ABSTRACT This research paper aims to compare different mechanisms associated with the recognition and enforcement of international investment awards under distinct jurisdictions, specifically focusing on the legal landscapes of India, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Principally, India has not participated in the ICSID Convention, thereby absolving it from any obligation to attend to investment arbitral awards on par with domestic court judgements as stated under Article 54. In addition to this, India has referred to the commercial reservation provision of Article I(3) within the Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards, that is the “New York Convention”. Subsequently, there is a restriction on the application of New York Convention in India solely to foreign awards arising from commercial relationships under the Indian law as elucidated by Section 44 of the Act. This paper aims to branch out and delve into how Indian courts interpret this provision, thereby acknowledging its applicability and potentially excluding investment arbitral awards from its scope at the same time.Unlike India, the regime in the United States of America is oriented towards a proenforcement stance, as far as investment arbitration awards under ICSID are concerned. The enforcement of such awards is governed by the provisions of the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) and the New York convention. The FAA lays down a framework for the enforcement of arbitration agreements and awards, encompassing both, domestic as well as international awards. Section 207 of this act deals particularly with ICSID awards, giving them the same status as final judgments of a U.S court as far as enforcement and recognition are concerned. The country is also a party to the New York Convention. Chapter-2 of the FAA ensures that it is implemented. As enshrined in Article-III of the convention, the US enforces and recognizes ICSID awards. Enforcement of ICSID awards however can be refused if one of the grounds mentioned in Article-V, such as a breach of public policy or procedural irregularities are found. The United Kingdom member of the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) and is a signatory to the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards. Further, the United Kingdom adheres to the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) Model Law on International Commercial Arbitration.The enforcement of an award depends on the country in which the seat of arbitration is situated and is governed by the rules followed in that country. In the UK, arbitration awards can be enforced by invoking the Arbitration Act 1996, the New York Convention, the Geneva Convention 1927, the Administration of Justice Act 1920, the Foreign Judgments (Reciprocal Enforcement) Act 1933, and Common Law. 78 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal There are two procedures to enforce an arbitral award. The first method is to seek the leave of the Court to enforce the award, and the second is to seek the same relief from the national Courts as set out in the arbitral award. The enforcement of the award can be challenged on the limited grounds laid down in the New York convention. The National Court can refuse to enforce the award if the Court opines that enforcement of the award would violate public policy. Arbitral proceedings dealing with complex issues of law can be appealed to the Supreme Court; this process can take approximately two years. There is a specified time limit in which the award is to be enforced. Non-compliance with an award is considered a violation of the arbitration agreement.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal MULTI-SENSOR-BASED INTERFACE DESIGN FOR BIOMOLLECULE DIAGNOSIS ABSTRACT Biomolecular diagnosis is the information obtained through research techniques used in clinical applications such as early diagnosis of diseases and monitoring of treatment processes. Electrochemical measurements performed in biosensor technologies and electrochemical cell designs are used to understand biomolecular interactions and cellular events. Devices commonly used in biomolecular diagnostics in this context are potentiostat devices, but current potentiostat devices generally measure only a single electrode, limiting the benefits of using multiple electrodes. Additionally, existing multi-channel potentiostat devices are expensive.In this context, this study is the design of an interface connected to a single-channel potentiostat to improve the more effective use of potentiostat devices for biomolecular diagnostic applications. The interface design here can perform sequential measurements of multiple electrodes from a single channel with microprocessor software and special circuit design. This feature provides advantages such as analytical flexibility, rapid data collection and practical measurement when multiple electrodes are used. It also reduces the need for expensive multichannel potentiostat device. In addition, measurements can be transferred as data to the computer software of the potentiostat device with the microprocessor software. These data can be converted into graphical data with potentiostat software and comments can be made on these data. Since a circuit topology different from the existing circuit topology is used and software support is added, analytical scanning and measurements can be carried out automatically in specified periods by making individual measurements or time entry. This study aims to provide convenience to sectors requiring measurement such as medicine, analytical chemistry and pharmacy by developing electrochemical measurements in the field of biomolecular diagnostics. It will contribute to making experiments more practical and faster. Keywords: Biosensor technologies, analytical chemistry, pharmacy 86 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EXAMINING THE ROLE OF MIDDLE SCHOOL SOCIAL STUDIES COURSEBOOKS IN ACQUIRING ENTREPRENEURSHIP SKILL BASED ON STUDENTS' VIEWS ABSTRACT Social studies is a course that organizes the information compiled from many social science disciplines such as history, geography, sociology, psychology and anthropology in accordance with the readiness of primary and middle school students and aims to provide students with knowledge, values and skills that they can use in their daily lives. One of the skills that the social studies course aims to provide students with is entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurship is a skill focused on improving the quality of individuals' lives by making the best use of the opportunities they encounter. Entrepreneurship can be focused on providing individual benefit or it can be related to the development of social conditions. Therefore, there are many types of entrepreneurship in terms of the areas it covers. Coursebooks are one of the most important materials used in the social studies course to provide students with entrepreneurship skills. Considering the importance of coursebooks in this context, it is expected that the content related to acquiring entrepreneurship skills should be adequate and designed in accordance with the purpose of acquiring entrepreneurship skill. This study examined how students view the role of social studies coursebooks in acquiring entrepreneurship skill. Basic qualitative design, was used in the study. A total of 13 participants, four 5th grade, five 6th grade and four 7th grade students from three middle schools in Ağrı province, were included in the participant group which was formed by convenience sampling method. The data were collected through a semistructured interview form and analyzed through descriptive analysis. In the study, it was determined that middle school students saw social studies coursebooks as materials that have a major role in acquiring entrepreneurship skills but are insufficient in terms of content. In the study, it was also concluded that students thought that the content of social studies coursebooks in the context of entrepreneurship should be improved and in class activities should be carried out in order to acquire entrepreneurship skill.

Bireylerin ülkelerinde ki savaş, iç çatışmalar, daha iyi eğitim ve yaşam koşulları gibi gerekçelerle yapmış olduğu dış göç, yerleşme düşüncesinde olunan ülkeyi siyasi, ekonomik, kültürel ve psikolojik olarak etkilemektedir. Türkiye’de merkezi idare adına göç sürecini Göç İdaresi Genel Müdürlüğü yönetmekte olup, kentler de il temsilcilikleri vasıtasıyla denetim ve kontrolleri gerçekleşmektedir. Kentlerin belediye yönetimleri de merkezi idareyle birlikte bu sürece zorunlu olarak dâhil olmaktadır. Yabancı göçüyle gelen insanların barınma, ulaşım, eğitim, güvenlik ve alt yapı sorunlarının doğrudan muhatabı, merkezi yönetime ilaveten belediyeler olmaktadır. Belediyeler, yabancı göçüyle ortaya çıkan sorunlara yönelik olarak kısıtlı bütçeleriyle çözüm üretmeye çalışmaktadırlar. 6458 sayılı Yabancılar ve Uluslararası Koruma Kanunu, 5216 ile 6360 sayılı Büyükşehir Belediyesi Kanunları ve 5393 Sayılı Belediye Kanunu göçmen ve sığınmacı süreciyle olarak belediyeleri yetkilendirmiş bulunsa da, önemli olan özellikle yoğun yabancı göçü alan belediyelerin bütçelerine, bütün süreci zorlanmadan yürütebileceği ve gerekli alt yapı yatırımlarını oluşturabileceği bütçeyi aktarmaktır. TÜİK verilerine göre, Türkiye’ye 2022 yılında gelen yabancı uyruklu nüfus %25 ile Rusya Federasyonu, %8,1 ile Ukrayna, %6,5 ile İran, %5,4 ile Afganistan ve %4,8 ile Irak vatandaşlarıdır. Türkiye'de hâlihazırda çok sayıda Suriyeli ve Afganistanlı göçmen ve sığınmacıların bulunduğu da göz önünde bulundurulursa, göçmen nüfusunun hızla artmış olduğu değerlendirilmektedir. Çalışmanın amacı; belediyelerin karşı karşıya kaldığı yabancı göçüyle nasıl mücadele edebileceğini değerlendirmek, ortaya çıkan problemlerin çözüm yollarını irdeleyerek incelemektir. Yabancı göç sürecinin belediyeleri ciddi kaynak sıkıntısı içerisine ittiğinin ve hizmet sunumunda problemler yarattığının anlaşılması bakımından alana katkısı olacaktır. Çalışmada belediyelerce göç sürecinin yönetilmesine ilişkin kanunlar, ilgili mevzuatlar, konuya ilişkin yazılı eserler, internet kaynakları irdelenerek, literatür taraması uygulanmıştır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EFFECTS OF FOREIGN MIGRATION ON SERVICE PROVISION OF MUNICIPALITIES ABSTRACT Foreign migration is a dynamic process that needs to be solved on a global scale and carried out in a controlled manner, forcing the central government and municipalities to implement seriously multifaceted programs in the cities where immigrants reside. Emigration by individuals due to reasons such as war, internal conflicts, better education and living conditions in their country affects the country where they intend to settle politically, economically, culturally and psychologically. In Turkey, the General Directorate of Migration Management manages the migration process on behalf of the central administration, and inspections and controls are carried out in cities through provincial representatives. Municipal administrations of cities are also necessarily involved in this process together with the central administration. In addition to the central government, municipalities are the direct addressees of the housing, transportation, education, security and infrastructure problems of people who come with foreign migration. Municipalities are trying to find solutions to the problems arising from foreign immigration with their limited budgets. Although the Law on Foreigners and International Protection No. 6458, the Metropolitan Municipality Laws No. 5216 and 6360 and the Municipality Law No. 5393 have authorized municipalities with regard to the immigrant and refugee process, the important thing is that the municipalities, especially those receiving intense foreign immigration, have access to their budgets so that they can carry out the whole process without difficulty and create the necessary infrastructure investments. is to transfer the budget. According to TÜİK data, the foreign national population coming to Turkey in 2022 are citizens of the Russian Federation with 25%, Ukraine with 8.1%, Iran with 6.5%, Afghanistan with 5.4% and Iraq with 4.8%. Considering that there are already many Syrian and Afghan immigrants and refugees in Turkey, it is considered that the immigrant population has increased rapidly. Purpose of the study; The aim is to evaluate how municipalities can combat the foreign migration they face and to examine the solutions to the problems that arise. It will contribute to the field in terms of understanding that the foreign migration process pushes municipalities into serious resource shortages and creates problems in service delivery. In the study, a literature review was conducted by examining the laws regarding the management of the migration process by municipalities, relevant legislation, written works and internet resources on the subject.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal AVRUPA BİRLİĞİ'NİN COVİD-19 PANDEMİSİNE MÜDAHALELERİ: KÜRESEL KRİZLERDE AKTÖRLÜĞÜN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ Dr. Büşra KILIÇ (ORCID:0000-0002-3335-106) Independent Researcher Email: kilic_busra@windowslive.com ÖZET Bu araştırma, COVID-19 pandemisi sürecinde Avrupa Birliği'nin (AB) sergilediği politik eylemler ve reaksiyonlar üzerine odaklanarak, aktörlük teorisi bağlamında kapsamlı bir analiz sunmaktadır. François Duchêne tarafından 1972 yılında ileri sürülen "Sivil Güç" paradigması temel alınarak, AB'nin "aktör olarak doğası"na yönelik tartışmalar, Ian Manners'ın 2000'lerde geliştirdiği "Normatif Güç" kavramı ile derinleşerek yeni bir boyut kazanmıştır. COVID-19 pandemisi, AB'nin dayanıklılığını, işbirliğine dayalı politika oluşturma yeteneğini ve genel kriz yönetim kapasitesini kritik bir şekilde test etmiştir. Bu bağlamda, üye devletlerin sınırlarını kapatma ve bağımsız yardım arayışlarına girişmeleri, özellikle İtalya'nın uluslararası alanda geniş yankı bulan ve karşılıksız kalan yardım talepleri dikkat çekici olmuştur. Pandemiye bağlı ekonomik sıkıntılara karşılık olarak, AB liderleri, büyük bir kurtarma fonunun kurulması da dahil olmak üzere, geniş kapsamlı bir toparlanma stratejisine yönelik taahhütlerde bulunmuşlardır. AB'nin COVID-19 pandemisine yanıtları, “hastalığın yayılmasını sınırlama, ulusal sağlık sistemlerini destekleme, sosyo-ekonomik etkileriyle mücadele ve aşıların adil dağıtımını sağlama” konularında kapsamlı bir yaklaşımı içermektedir. Bu çalışma, aktörlük teorisinin çerçevesi içinde AB'nin COVID-19 pandemisi süresince dış politika sahnesindeki performansını değerlendirir. Araştırma, özellikle dayanışma, güven oluşturma ve komşu ülkelere mali yardım sağlama gibi kritik faktörlere odaklanarak, AB'nin beklenmedik küresel durumlar karşısındaki rolünün evrimine yönelik derinlemesine bir perspektif sunmayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu bağlamda, Birliğin öngörülemeyen zorluklara nasıl tepki verdiğine dair kapsamlı bir inceleme gerçekleştirilecektir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal THE EUROPEAN UNION'S RESPONSE TO THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC: EVALUATING ACTORNESS IN GLOBAL CRISES ABSTRACT This research focuses on the political actions and reactions exhibited by the European Union (EU) during the COVID-19 pandemic, offering a comprehensive analysis within the context of actorness theory. Starting with François Duchêne's "Civilian Power" paradigm proposed in 1972, discussions on the EU's "nature as an actor" have deepened and gained a new dimension through Ian Manners' "Normative Power" concept developed in the 2000s. The COVID-19 pandemic critically tested the EU's resilience, capacity for collaborative policy-making, and overall crisis management capabilities. In this context, the closing of borders by member states and their independent efforts to seek aid, particularly Italy's widely echoed and unmet requests for assistance, have been noteworthy. In response to the economic difficulties caused by the pandemic, EU leaders have committed to a broad recovery strategy, including the establishment of a significant recovery fund. The EU’s responses to the COVID-19 pandemic encompass a comprehensive approach addressing "limiting the spread of the disease, supporting national health systems, combating the socio-economic impacts, and ensuring the equitable distribution of vaccines." This study evaluates the EU's performance on the foreign policy stage during the COVID-19 pandemic through the lens of actorness theory. The research aims to provide a deep perspective on the EU's evolving role in the face of unexpected global situations, focusing specifically on critical factors such as solidarity, trust-building, and providing financial assistance to neighboring countries. In this regard, a comprehensive examination of how the Union has responded to unforeseen challenges will be conducted. Keywords: EU Foreign Policy, COVID-19, EU as an Actor, Global Crises 92 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal DOES FOOD INFLATION AFFECT NUTRITIONAL HABITS? ABSTRACT The study aimed to determine the effect of food inflation on eating habits of adult individuals. The study was conducted with academic/administrative staff aged between 19-64 working in faculties and colleges affiliated to Ankara University who shop for food through a questionnaire form. Of the individuals, 61.1% were female and 38.9% were male. The mean age of women was 32.9±8.26 and 35.1±9.65 years for men(t=-2.017, p=0.045). The total monthly household income of the participants is 29.5% 60.001₺ and above, 14.9% 50.001-60.000₺, 16.7% 40.00150.000₺, 17.5% 30.001-40.000₺, 15.6% 20.001-30.000₺, 4.4% 12.001-20.000₺. The research, individuals were asked about the recent changes in their eating habits due to food inflation, and 69.8% of the individuals stated that food inflation has changed their eating habits. Among these individuals, 49.5% stated that they started to prefer more affordable foods, 22.4% stated that they reduced food variety, and 13.0% stated that they reduced the amount of food. Due to food inflation, 27.3% of the individuals stated that they had to skip main meals, and it was observed that the main meal that was not consumed was lunch (58.7%) and then breakfast(28%). The rate of decrease in snack consumption due to food inflation was higher in men than in women and this difference was statistically significant(p=0.034). 36.7% of the individuals stated that the amount of food consumed at main/intermediate meals decreased due to food inflation. Income level is a factor that significantly affects the dietary habits of individuals. It is understood that the dietary habits of individuals at low income levels are more affected by food inflation. It is observed that food inflation resulting from rising food prices affects the dietary habits of individuals. It is thought that these results are an important data source for policy makers and should be taken into consideration when making necessary arrangements.

Süt sığırcılığı faaliyetlerinin başarılı bir şekilde yürütülebilmesi için, hayvan bakımı, yönetimi, uygun hayvan seçimi ve barınak gibi faktörlerin yanı sıra yeterli ve kaliteli yem ile etkili bir besleme programının uygulanması gerekmektedir. Günümüzde süt sığırcılığı genellikle entansif koşullarda büyük kapasiteli işletmelerde yapılmaktadır, Bu tip işletmelerde verim kontrolü ve hayvanların doğal davranışlarını sergileyebilmeleri için gerekli düzenlemeler yapılması ve hayvan refahının korunması büyük bir önem taşımaktadır. Hayvan refahı, bir hayvanın yaşadığı koşulların, sağlık durumunun, yaşam kalitesinin ve mutluluğunun bir yansıması olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Bir hayvanın refah içinde olduğu kabul edilebilmesi için, bu hayvanın sağlıklı, rahat, iyi beslenmiş, güvende, türünün doğal davranışlarını sergileyebilir, korkusuzca yaşayabilir, ağrı veya stresten muzdarip olmadığı kabul edilmektedir. Hayvan refahıyla ilgili olarak, farklı ülkelerde çok sayıda yasa ve yönetmelik düzenlenmiştir. İklimsel ve çevresel koşulların dikkatlice yönetilmesi, süt sığırları işletmesinin başarısı için kritik bir rol oynamaktadır. Hayvan refahının sağlanabilmesi değişik faktörlere bağlıdır. Bunlardan bazıları, İşletmenin konumlandırılacağı bölgenin iklimsel faktörleri ve işletme içi iklim şartları olarak sıralamak mümkündür. İklim koşulları, belirli bir bölgenin sıcaklık, nem, rüzgâr ve yağış gibi faktörlerini içermektedir. Bu koşulların istenilen sınırların altında veya üstünde olması, özellikle süt sığırlarının verimliliğini olumlu ya da olumsuz yönde etkileyebilmektedir. Süt sığırlarının yaşadığı iklim koşulları, süt üretimi, sağlık ve genel refahlarını etkileyebilir. Süt sığırları için en uygun sıcaklık genellikle 5-25°C arasındadır; ancak 10-20°C arasındaki sıcaklıklar süt sığırları için en ideal olanlardır. Yüksek sıcaklık, düşük sıcaklığa göre süt sığırları üzerinde daha fazla olumsuz etki yaratabilir. Ayrıca, nem seviyeleri de önemlidir. Süt sığırları için en uygun nem seviyeleri genellikle %50-70 arasında bulunur. Yüksek sıcaklık ve yüksek nem koşulları altında, süt sığırları verimlerini kaybedebilir ve stres yaşayabilirler. Hayvanların refahını artırmak için bulundukları işletmelerde farklı uygulamalar yapılmaktadır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ANIMAL WELFARE PRACTICES IN DAIRY FARMING ABSTRACT Dairy cattle farming constitutes an important part of cattle farming. To carry out dairy cattle activities successfully, it is necessary to implement an effective feeding program with sufficient and high-quality feed as well as factors such as animal care, management, appropriate animal selection, and shelter. Nowadays, dairy cattle farming is generally carried out in large-capacity enterprises under intensive conditions. In such enterprises, it is of great importance to make the necessary arrangements for yield control so that animals can exhibit their natural behaviors and to protect animal welfare. Animal welfare is defined as a reflection of an animal's living conditions, health, quality of life, and happiness. For an animal to be considered to be in welfare, it must be healthy, comfortable, well-fed, safe, able to exhibit the natural behaviors of its species, able to live without fear, and not suffering from pain or stress. Animal welfare is regulated by numerous laws and regulations in different countries. Careful management of climatic and environmental conditions plays a critical role in the success of the dairy cattle enterprise. Ensuring animal welfare depends on different factors. Some of these factors can be listed as climatic factors of the region where the enterprise will be located and climatic conditions within the enterprise. Climatic conditions include factors such as temperature, humidity, wind, and precipitation in a particular region. The fact that these conditions are below or above the desired limits can affect the productivity of dairy cattle positively or negatively. The climatic conditions in which dairy cattle live can affect their milk production, health, and general welfare. The optimum temperature for dairy cattle is usually between 5-25°C; however, temperatures between 10-20°C are the most ideal for dairy cattle. High temperatures can have more negative effects on dairy cattle than low temperatures. Humidity levels are also important. Optimal humidity levels for dairy cattle are usually found between 50-70%. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity, dairy cattle can lose productivity and experience stress. To improve the welfare of animals, different practices are carried out on the farms where they are located. These practices both increase animal welfare and have a positive impact on business profitability. Keywords: Dairy cattle, Animal Welfare, Stress, Temperature. 96 VI.

Ülkemizde ise süt üretiminin yaklaşık % 90’nı ve kırmızı et üretiminin yaklaşık olarak % 80’i sığırlardan karşılanmaktadır. Bu değerli hayvanların beslenmesi de büyük önem arzetmektedir. Bu beslemenin de ekonomik olarak yapılması gerekmektedir. Bunun için, hazırlanan rasyonların dengeli olması ve hayvanın tüm günlük ihtiyaçlarını karşılaması gerekmektedir. Hayvanın ihtiyaçlarını karşılamada ise, farklı yem hammaddelerinde yararlanılmaktadır. Bu yem hammddeleri içerisinde de silaj önemli bir yer tutmaktadır.Silaj, günümüzde tüm hayvancılık işletmelerinde gelişmekte olan düvelerin, besi danalarının, kurudaki ve laktasyondaki ineklerin yemlenmesinde yoğun bir şekilde kullanılmaktadır. Silajının veriliş miktarı, hayvanların yaşına ve verim düzeyine bağlı olarak değişim göstermektedir. Silajı kısaca tanımlayacak olursak; su içeriği yüksek yeşil yem bitkilerinin, küçük parçacıklara ayrılarak, havasız bir ortamda süt asidi bakterilerinin fermantasyonuna uğratılmaları yoluyla elde edilmektedir. Silaj; bir çeşit hayvan turşusu olarak ta adlandırılabilir. Silaj, yeterli düzeyde şeker içerdiğinden herhangi bir katkı maddesi kullanmaya gerek duyulmadan değerlendirilebilecek bir yem kaynağıdır. Silaj; birim alandan fazla miktarda sindirilebilir besin maddesi sağlayan, lezzetli ve besleme değeri yüksek bir yemdir. Silaj; uzun süre saklanabilen ve kış mevsiminde taze ve sulu yem olarak tüketilebilen ideal bir besin maddesidir. Silaj yapımında birbiri ile ilişkili üç etken bulunmaktadır. Bunlar; silajı yapılacak yem materyali, silaj yapım yönetimi ve fermantasyon işlemidir. Kaliteli bir silaj elde edebilmek için tüm bu etkenlerin üzerinde özenle durulması gerekmektedir. Silo yemleri hem süt inekleri tarafından severek tüketilmekte hem rumen faaliyetlerinin düzenlenmesine yardımcı olmaktadır. Ayrıca süt verimini arttırmaktadır. Bu açıdan, rasyona katılım ve hayvanlar tarafından tüketim miktarının arttırılma yollarına gidilmesi gerekmektedir. Süt ineklerinin beslenmesinde rasyonlarında günlük 15 – 30 kg kadar kullanılmaktadır. Silaj kullanımı sırasında kesif yem ve kaliteli kuru ot ile desteklenmesi gerekmektedir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal THE IMPORTANCE OF INCREASING SILAGE CONSUMPTION IN DAIRY COWS ABSTRACT In the world, 85% of milk production and nearly 20% of meat production is obtained from cattle. In our country, approximately 90% of milk production and 80% of red meat production is made from cattle. Feeding these valuable animals is also of great importance. This feeding should also be done economically. For this, the rations prepared must be balanced and meet all the daily needs of the animal. Different feed raw materials are used to meet the needs of the animal. Silage has an important place among these feed raw materials. Silage is used intensively in all livestock farms today for feeding developing heifers, fattening calves, and dry and lactating cows. The amount of silage fed varies depending on the age and efficiency level of the animals. If we define silage briefly; It is obtained by separating green fodder plants with high water content into small particles and fermentation of milk acid bacteria in an airless environment. Silage can also be called a kind of animal pickle. Silage is a feed source that can be evaluated without the need to use any additives since it contains sufficient sugar. Silage is a feed that provides a large amount of digestible nutrients per unit area, is delicious, and has high nutritional value. Silage is an ideal nutrient that can be stored for a long time and can be consumed as fresh and juicy feed during the winter season. There are three interrelated factors in silage production. These are; forage material to be silaged, silage production management, and fermentation process. All these factors should be carefully emphasized to obtain a quality silage. Silo feeds are both consumed fondly by dairy cows and help to regulate rumen activities. It also increases milk yield. In this respect, it is necessary to increase the amount of inclusion in the ration and consumption by animals. It is used in the rations of dairy cows at a daily rate of 15 - 30 kg. During the use of silage, it should be supported with concentrated feed and quality dry grass. Keywords: Silage, Feed Consumption, Ruminant, Feeding, Milk Yield 98 VI.

Ancak 2016 yılından sonra başlayan ve 2021 yılında ‘’yeni ekonomi politikası‘’ ile adlandırılan politika geleneksel olmayan geleneksel ekonomi politikalarından oluşan farklı bir model arayışı dönemidir. 1990-2016 yılları arası ekonomi politikası liberalleşme politikaları temeline dayalı dışa açılma ve finansal liberalizasyon politikalarını içermektedir. 2016 yılından sonra ise serbest piyasa ekonomisi kural ve kurumlarını işletirken, enerji ve ara mallardaki dış bağımlılığın düşürülmesi hedeflenmiştir. 2020 yılındaki küresel pandemi süreci sonrası ise cari fazla vermeyi ve rekabetçi kurlarla üretimdeki ve dünya ticaretindeki payını artırma amacıyla ‘’geleneksel ekonomi politikalarına aykırı düşük faiz politikası’’ ile ekonomik yapısını bağımlılığı yüksek bir yapıdan, ileri teknoloji ve ithal girdi bağımlılığı düşük bir yapıya dönüştürmeyi hedeflemiştir (Buluş; 2023,23). Ancak uygulanan bu politikanın enflasyon üzerinde yarattığı baskı, Türkiye ekonomisinde yeniden yüksek enflasyonun yaşanması politika değişikliğini de beraberinde getirmiştir. Türkiye ekonomisi 2023 yılında 191 ülke arasında en yüksek enflasyona sahip altıncı ülke olmuştur. Bu durum ekonomi politikası yapımcılarını “Ekonomide Rasyonel Dönüşüm Programı” olarak adlandırılan tekrar geleneksel politikalara dönmesine neden olmuştur. Ekonomide rasyonel dönüşüm programı toplumsal refahın artması için rasyonel politikaların uygulanmasını temel almıştır. Toplumsal refah hedefine ulaşmak için şeffaflık, sürdürülebilir yüksek büyüme için mali disiplinin tesis edilmesi ve fiyat istikrarı temel hedef olarak belirlenmiştir. Özellikle orta vadede enflasyonun yeniden tek haneli rakamlara düşürülmesi risk ve belirsizliğin azaltılarak her alanda öngörülebilirliğin artırıldığı, güvenilirliğinin sağlandığı makro ekonomik yapının sağlanması için etkin ekonomi politikalarının uygulanması gerekliliği vurgulanmıştır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal APPLICATION OF RATIONAL TRANSFORMATION PROGRAMS IN TURKISH ECONOMY AND ITS EFFECTS ABSTRACT Depending on the changes and developments in the world economy, the Turkish economy has tried to ensure macroeconomic stability through the implementation of traditional economic policies. However, the policy that started after 2016 and is called the "new economic policy" in 2021 is a period of searching for a different model consisting of non-traditional traditional economic policies. Economic policy between 1990 and 2016 includes opening up and financial liberalization policies based on liberalization policies. After 2016, it was aimed to reduce external dependence on energy and intermediate goods while operating the free market economy rules and institutions. After the global pandemic process in 2020, it aimed to transform its economic structure from a highly dependent structure to a structure with low dependence on advanced technology and imported inputs, with a "low interest policy contrary to traditional economic policies" in order to achieve a current account surplus and increase its share in production and world trade with competitive exchange rates. (Invention; 2023,23). However, the pressure created by this policy on inflation and the re-experiencing high inflation in the Turkish economy brought about a policy change. In 2023, the Turkish economy was the sixth country with the highest inflation among 191 countries. This situation has caused economic policy makers to return to traditional policies, which is called the "Rational Transformation Program in the Economy". The rational transformation program in the economy is based on the implementation of rational policies to increase social welfare. In order to achieve the goal of social welfare, transparency, establishment of fiscal discipline for sustainable high growth and price stability have been determined as the main objectives.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal THE IMPACTS OF GREEN ECONOMY ON RESOURCE UTILIZATION BY SECTORS ABSTRACT After the scarcity of natural resources and the understanding of the environmental damages of unconscious use of natural resources, new concepts were needed. A green economy, also known as a low carbon emission economy, has emerged here. The green economy is an understanding of the economy that aims to reduce environmental risks and ecological shortages in today's age of increasing environmental problems and supports sustainable development while maintaining these goals. The effects of a green economy on resource utilization are very important both environmentally and economically. Resource utilization is environmentally important for the effective use of natural resources, reduction of environmental pollution, prevention of climate change, and protection of natural life. In economic terms, it supports long-term sustainable growth with factors such as more efficient use of resources, reducing the costs of enterprises, and increasing competitiveness. Taking resource use to new dimensions, encouraging more efficient use of energy, water, and raw materials, preventing waste, and encouraging the use of environmentally friendly resources lie at the foundations of the green economy model. For the green economy to be adopted comprehensively, the policies established by the countries should encourage the companies operating in the sectors to transition to a green economy and provide support to the companies implementing the green economy. In this framework, the study aims to first discuss the green economy concept in general terms and then to reveal the negative and positive effects on the resources spent on a sectoral basis in tourism, energy, construction, agriculture, and food sectors respectively.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal THE EFFECTIVENESS OF MONETARY POLICY IN THE LEARNING ECONOMY: AN EVALUATION ON THE TURKISH ECONOMY ABSTRACT One of the most important political tools that affects the dynamics of change in the world economy is monetary policy. Because today's rapidly changing and developing markets are financial markets. These developments have imposed important duties on central banks and monetary policy practices in order to ensure the regular functioning of the financial system. Monetary policy is the set of policies followed by the government to control the money supply. The institution that carries out the monetary policy of the countries is the central bank. The central bank of every country is a type of specialized public economic institution. Central banks take into account the speed of circulation of money when implementing monetary policies and determining money supplies. Learning is the responsibility required to adapt to knowledge and new change. The responsibility of the central bank in an environment of innovation and change is to ensure efficiency, security and effective monetary control at the same time. Central banks will fulfill these responsibilities through the monetary policy they implement by keeping the markets under surveillance. However, innovation and change make it increasingly difficult for central banks to ensure the healthy functioning of the financial system and to achieve a sustainable growth rate in an inflation-free environment. Because changes and developments in financial innovations have begun to change the definition of money. In parallel with structural changes and financial innovations, it has become difficult to predict a monetary relationship that could be the basis for determining a policy in advance. This situation also made integrated economic policies unsuccessful, and the failure of integrated policies also affected monetary policies. Because it is money and money-related issues that decision-making units learn the most about, flow information to, and are directly affected by in achieving their objective function.Therefore, in financial markets where change occurs at a dizzying pace, monetary policy and the central bank must have a dynamic structure.

Email:psi.sh@rmkec.in ABSTRACT Online shopping platforms have been attracting many customers since they were introduced in the last decade of the 20th century. Using online shopping platforms, customers can purchase any merchandise anywhere and anytime without the need to physically go from store to store to find a product or wait in lines to check out. Despite their advantages in comparison with instore shopping, customers often have concerns when they shop for products that require measurements estimation such as furniture and clothes. Choosing the wrong clothing size, in particular, is a common issue experienced by many online shoppers. Therefore, in this research, a model is proposed that utilizes computer vision and machine learning to estimate upper body measurements of humans. The process involves using a portable camera to capture an image, enhancing its quality, isolating the human body, calibrating, extracting body features, marking the image, and generating accurate results. This method, using a single RGB camera, holds great potential for the fashion industry. We have also introduced ellipse-like approximations to minimize the difference between manual and software measurements. Our approach has shown better results than the current state-of-the-art, with an average difference of ± 1cm compared to traditional manual tape measurements. Artificial intelligence is being applied to predict body dimensions in the apparel industry, leading to cost reduction and improved efficiency. We proposed a back propagation artificial neural network (BP-ANN) model to predict pattern making-related body dimensions using key human body measurements. The model was trained using anthropometric data from 120 young females in northeastern China, demonstrating that the BP-ANN model is more accurate and stable than the linear regression (LR) model. This method can be valuable in creating garment patterns for form-fitting clothing, and its precision can be further enhanced with a larger learning dataset in the future. There is a growing interest in deep learning-based recommender systems, particularly for outfit recommendation. Deep neural networks can identify important product features from images and text descriptions, and represent them as semantic vectors. This is especially relevant in the fashion domain, where various product features contribute to creating outfits. In our study, we compare different fusion methods for outfit recommendation that combine product features extracted from visual and textual data into multimodal item representations. We evaluate traditional fusion methods against attention-based fusion methods, which are designed to capture the interdependencies between different modalities more effectively.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal A COMPLEMENTARY APPROACH TO TREATING PETS - BACH FLOWER DROPS Natasa ANTIC (ORCID:0009-0000-6589-6563) Beka Vet Veterinary Pharmacy, Belgrade, Serbia Email: natasa.antic119@gmail.com ABSTRACT Bach's flower essences result from the research of Dr. Edward Bach, a British doctor. Learning from nature and living beings, and from his personal experience with the disease, led him to hypotheses about the influence of emotional imbalance on the disease manifestation. He divided emotional states into seven groups: fear, insecurity, lack of interest (absence of spirit), loneliness, and hypersensitivity to the influence and ideas of others, depression and despair, and excessive concern for the well-being of others and treated them with thirty eight flower essences. Pets also may express personality, awareness, emotions, and may get into an emotional imbalance. Such conditions alters behavior of the pet, and may lead to psychosomatic diseases (diarrhea due to fear). In addition to allopathic treatment, inclusion of Bach drops shortens the recovery time, which is a kind of blessing for both the pet and the owner. Bach's flower essences, are natural and do not have contraindications. No antagonism, no synergism with other medicines has been demonstrated, nor can they be overdosed. These are the reasons why they can be used for a wide range of animal behavioral problems. They are safe and gently and subtly restore balance and reduce flaws, while enhancing virtues. Treatment with Bach essences is carried out through individual therapy. Five to a maximum of seven flower essences in water solution can be combined in the so-called utility bottle. The length of therapy is usually three weeks. Bach drops may help in situations such are; stress from relocation (animals are territorial); fear from loud noises, new things, people, etc.; aggression; dominant behavior; lack of self-confidence; depression; traumatic past, and many other conditions.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal COCCIDIOSIS OF PARTRIDGES (PERDIX PERDIX) IN SERBIA Prof. Dr. Ivan PAVLOVIC (ORCID: 0000-0003-4751-6760) Scientific Institute of Veterinary Medicine of Serbia, Belgrade, Serbia Email: Dripavlovic58@gmail.com ABSTRACT Partridge or field partridge (Perdix perdix) is a species of bird from the pheasant family (Phasianidae). It inhabits areas with a moderate climate, but it can rarely be found on mountain plains and higher altitudes. It lives in Europe and the western part of Asia, and it has been successfully settled in North America as a hunting bird. Diseases of parasitic etiology represent a major health problem for partridges. Among them is coccidiosis. Coccidiosis is considered the single most common disease in gamebird production; this intestinal parasite is transmitted in faeces by single celled organisms called oocysts. The production and spread of this parasite is very fast, one oocyst can reproduce resulting in millions of oocysts. If left undetected coccidia can cause waves of very ill birds and numerous deaths. When oocysts are within the faeces or environment moisture and warmth causes them to sporulate making them “infective”. The birds then ingest these oocysts and the cycle within the intestinal tract starts, multiplying and causing illness. The most common coccidia species found in partridges reared in the Serbia are: Eimeria kofoidi, Eimeria caucasica and Eimeria legionesis. Most abundant species are E. kofoidi. E.kofoidi invades duodenum and jejunum, however heavy infections cause the parasite to spread to the ileum. White spots can be seen from the outside of the intestine, the duodenum contains think mucus and white streaks, thick green or yellow mucus is found in the upper intestine. E.caucasica invades the duodenum and and the lesions spotted from the outside of the intestine are pinkish/reddish spots. E.legionesis mainly invades the caecae. Petechial hemorrhaging is common inside the folds of the caecae with no normal caecal contents present, instead there are cheesy white cores sometimes in fragments but with heavy infections it is seen as one whole core.

The results of studies describing the determinants and the rate of BMD loss in people after SCI are inconclusive. The study covered 50 young Caucasian men after spinal cord injuries. Forearm bone mineral density (BMD), bone mineral content (BMC) and T-score in distal (dis) and proximal (prox) part was measured by densitometry. Somatic measurements and body composition measurements were taken. To assess smoking, the following were used on the Global Adult Tobacco Survey questionnaire. Muscle strength was measured using a Jamar dynamometer. Active male smokers after SCI had significantly lower BMD dis, BMC dis and prox male non-smokers after SCI. Physical activity was a significant positive predictor for BMC prox. Predictor of interactions of physical activity and fat mass was significant for BMC dis (positive direction). It was also found that the predictor of interactions of four variables: physical activity, fat mass, hand grip strength (positive direction), and years of active smoking (negative direction) was significant for BMD dis. The predictor of interactions of age at injury (additive direction) and the number of cigarettes smoked per day (negative direction) was significant for T-score prox. Non-smoking physically active men after SCI had the most advantageous values of mean forearm BMD. Active smoking may reduce the protective role of physical activity for bone health in young men after SCI.

Waves of immigration to western countries started in the last months of the war and continued with intensity immediately after its termination. Anti-Communism immigration was nationwide almost from all regions of the country,but in terms of political Albania, the largest groups of immigrants were from North and South Albania. While political emigration from Central Albania was relatively low. This expansion was related to the intensity and extent of the armed conflict among Albanians in these areas. The political immigration was established as consequence of various reasons:First, as a result of the establishment of the communist dictatorship in Albania. This was the main reason, which not only did not create opportunities and chances for national reconciliation after conflict dramatic developments that Albanians had among themselves during World War II, but the establishment of the communist dictatorship was a source of deepening hostilities. Secondly, the political emigration of a large number of Albanians was a result of the Civil War that took place in Albania from autumn 1943 to November 1944.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal THE IMPACT OF POLITICAL PRESSURE ON JUDICIAL INDEPENDENCE: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF INDIA AND THE UK Dr Rida Zulfiqar University of Szeged ABSTRACT The concept of judicial independence is very important for keeping the rule of law, democracy, and the protection of human rights. This paper aims to study how political pressure affects judicial independence, with a focus on India and the UK. For our study, we use a qualitative method. This includes looking at case studies, legal documents, times when politics interfered with the courts, and talking to or getting opinions from experts in law. In India, we see political pressure in several ways. For example, the government might change laws that affect how judges are chosen or speak against judges in public. This can make it hard for judges to make decisions freely. In the UK, there are systems meant to protect judges from such pressures. For instance, the Judicial Appointments Commission helps in choosing judges without political influence. However, even with these systems, there are still challenges that need attention. When we compare India and the UK, we notice both differences and similarities in how they keep their courts free from political pressure. Each country has its own way of dealing with this issue, influenced by its culture, laws, and history. Some methods work well in protecting judges, while others may not. From our study, we learn how important it is to keep the judiciary independent in democracies. Political pressures can threaten this independence, but there are ways to protect it. We suggest some ideas for making sure judges can work without fear of political interference. In conclusion, our paper shows how political pressure can challenge the independence of the judiciary in both India and the UK. It's crucial for democratic societies to keep an eye on this issue and take steps to protect the freedom of their courts. This way, judges can make fair decisions, which is important for everyone's rights and for democracy itself. Keywords: India, UK, protection of human rights 127 VI.

This paper investigates the significance of microstructure in determining the performance of CVD coatings applied to cemented carbide cutting tools. The microstructure, influenced by the C/(C + N) ratio, plays essential role in the coating's characteristics and performance during cutting operations.Many studies have proved that the combination of elements like B or Si into the coating composition can enhance both hardness and microstructure, thereby improving cutting performance. The CVD process involves thermally-induced chemical reactions conducted at elevated temperatures in an atmosphere-controlled reactor. Thin-film coatings are formed through reactions between gaseous phases and the heated substrate surface. Different gases injected into the reactor lead to the formation of these thin film layers of the coatings. For instance, TiN and titanium carbide (TiC) are formed through specific chemical reactions involving precursor gases such as TiCl 4, N2, CH4, and H2. The resulting coatings exhibit a hard, wear-resistant with strong bonds to the substrate. Understanding and optimizing the microstructure of CVD coatings offer a promising way for enhancing the performance and durability of cemented carbide cutting tools in machining applications. This current paper aims to extreme-understand of CVD coating technology and its applications in improving the efficiency and increase lifetime of cutting tools in machining processes.

Yeşil ekonomi, çevresel riskleri ve ekolojik kıtlıkların azaltılmasını desteklemektedir. Sürdürülebilir büyüme ise, gelir eşitsizliğinin azaltılması ile birlikte ekonomik istikrar ve refahı korumaktadır. Ekonomik büyüme, bir ekonomide mal ve hizmet üretimi miktarında olan artıştır. Dünyada nüfusun hızla artması ve artan nüfusla birlikte hızla artan üretim ile birlikte daha hızlı bir tüketim eğiliminin oluşmasına neden olmuştur. Çevrenin ve ekolojik düzenin korunması için “yeşil ekonomi” yaklaşımı daha yaygın hale gelmeye başlamıştır. Uluslararası düzeyde belirli politikalar üretilmeye başlanmıştır. Yeşil ekonomi; açık yeşil ekonomi, orta yeşil ekonomi ve ileri yeşil ekonomi olarak üçe ayrılmaktadır. Açık yeşil ekonomi, devlete karşı çıkmışlardır. Orta yeşil ekonomi, devlet müdahalesini savunmaktadır. İleri yeşil ekonomi ise, devlet müdahalesini rolü azdır. Yeşil ekonominin amacı, eşitlik ve adalet, refah ve kalkınmadır. Solow’un neoklasik büyüme modeli üç önemli iddia ortaya atmaktadır. Birincisi, teknolojik gelişmeler olmadığında, daha az kaynak ve üretim mümkün kılacaktır. İkincisi, ekonominin kilit kaynağı yatırım ve tasarruftur. Üçüncüsü ise, daha az gelişmiş ekonomiler sermaye miktarını istikrarlı hale getirene kadar gelişmiş ekonomilerden daha hızlı büyüyecektir. Sonuç olarak ise, uygulanan politikaların uzun dönemde büyüme ve yeşil ekonomi arasında pozitif ve olumlu bir ilişki olduğu görülmüştür. Artan teknolojik ilerleme ve uzmanlaşma ile kısa dönemde de sürdürülebilir büyüme üzerinde pozitif sonuçların ortaya çıkacağı kaçınılmaz olarak görülmektedir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GREEN ECONOMY AND SUSTAINABLE GROWTH ABSTRACT The purpose of this article is to analyze the impact of the transition towards the rapidly rising "Green Economy" on sustainable growth. The green economy supports the reduction of environmental risks and ecological scarcities. Sustainable growth, on the other hand, aims to maintain economic stability and welfare while reducing income inequality. Economic growth refers to an increase in the quantity of goods and services produced in an economy. The rapid increase in population worldwide, coupled with increasing production, has led to a faster trend in consumption. The approach of "green economy" has become more widespread to preserve the environment and ecological balance. Certain policies have begun to be formulated at the international level. The green economy is divided into three categories: open green economy, middle green economy, and advanced green economy. The open green economy opposes government intervention. The middle green economy advocates for government intervention. The advanced green economy minimizes the role of government intervention. The aim of the green economy is equality and justice, welfare, and development. Solow's neoclassical growth model makes three important claims. First, technological advancements will make it possible to produce more with fewer resources. Second, the key sources of the economy are investment and savings. Third, less developed economies will grow faster than developed economies until they stabilize the capital stock. As a result, it has been observed that the policies implemented have a positive and beneficial relationship between growth and the green economy in the long run. It is inevitable that with increasing technological progress and specialization, positive outcomes will emerge for sustainable growth in the short term as well.

Yönetmenliğini Mel Gibson’ın yaptığı, 2006 yılında gösterime giren film Apocalypto, Maya uygarlığının 7. yüzyıldaki çöküş dönemine odaklanmasıyla birlikte, uygarlık hakkında siyasi, kültürel ve dini bilgilerde sunar. Kolomb öncesi Amerikan uygarlıklarından biri olan Maya uygarlığı, binlerce yıl boyunca Meksika’nın güneydoğusundan, Honduras, El Salvador ve Guatemala’ya kadar uzanan Mezoamerika bölgesinde hüküm sürmüştür ve bu yüzden film, Meksi’da Veracruz’un güneyindeki Catemaco ve Los Tuxtlas çevresinde çekilmiştir. Apocalypto filminde Yukatek Mayacası kullanılmış ve tüm gösterime girdiği ülkelerde dublaj yasaklanmış, sadece İngilizce altyazı ile gösterilmektedir. Film, köylerinde mutlu bir şekilde yaşayan Maya halkının hayatlarından kesitlilerle başlar ve köye gelen bir grup asker köyü yağmalar ve kadınları köle, erkekleri ise Maya geleneğine göre kurban etmek üzere esir alırlar. Sonrasında esir yerli halkı zorlu ve sonunun ne olduğunu bilmedikleri bir yolculuk bekler ve filmin yaklaşık kırk dakikalık bölümünü içeren ve seyirciyi de merak içinde bırakan bu yolculuk sonrası zigguratları ve insan kurbanı ayinleri ile ünlü Maya başkentine ulaşırlar. Kuraklığın problem olduğu bölgede kurban törenleri yapılmakta ve esir alınan köy halkını da bu akıbet beklemektedir. Filmin yayınlamasıyla birlikte tarih eleştirmenleri, tarihsel çelişkilerle dolu olduğu ve gerçeği yansıtmadığı gerekçesiyle Maya uygarlığının diğer mezoamerikan uygarlıkları Mayalar İnkalara Azteklerle birbirine karıştırıldığı ve taraflı bir bakış sunduğunu iddia etmişlerdir. Tüm bu eleştirilere rağmen Apocalypto filmi kurgusal tasvirleriyle Maya medeniyetinin çöküşünün yakın olduğu bir dönemde, çöküşün getirdiği çaresizlik ve beraberinde yaygınlaşan zulüm, kabileler arası iç savaş, salgın hastalıklar, yabancıların istilası gibi konulara apokaliptik bir bakış açısıyla bir dönemim en görkemli medeniyetinin yok oluşunu anlatır.

Directed by Mel Gibson and released in 2006, Apocalypto centers on the collapse of the Mayan civilization in the 7th century and provides political, cultural, and religious information about the civilization. The Mayan civilization, an ancient American culture that existed for thousands of years, exerted control over the Mesoamerican region, spanning from southeastern Mexico to Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala. Therefore, the movie was filmed in the vicinity of Catemaco and Los Tuxtlas, located south of Veracruz in Mexico. The movie Apocalypto, which was shot with Yukatek Mayaca, was banned from dubbing in all countries where it was released and was released only with English subtitles. The movie opens by depicting the lives of the Mayan populace, who reside contentedly in their community. Upon the troops' arrival in the village, they engage in looting and seize the women as slaves, while capturing the men to be sacrificed in conformity with the Mayan tradition. The captive locals then embark on a challenging and unpredictable journey to the Mayan capital, famous for its ziggurats and human sacrifice rituals, which lasts for about forty minutes of the movie and leaves the audience in suspense. In the drought-stricken region, sacrifice ceremonies are executed, and the captured people anxiously await their inevitable destiny. Following the premiere, historians criticized it for including several historical discrepancies and failing to accurately depict reality, arguing that the movie gave a skewed perspective of the Mayan civilization, often conflating it with other Mesoamerican civilizations such as the Incas and Aztecs. Despite all these criticisms, the movie Apocalypto narrates the downfall of the Maya civilization during a period when its collapse was imminent, depicting the desperation brought by the collapse, the widespread oppression that followed, inter-tribal warfare, epidemic diseases, and the invasion of foreigners, all from an apocalyptic perspective, portraying the demise of one of the most magnificent civilizations of its time. Keywords: Meseoamerican Civilizations, Sacrificial Ritual, Apocalyptic Period 135 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal OBESITY PREDICTION MODEL PROPOSAL USING MACHINE LEARNING TECHNIQUES ABSTRACT Obesity is an increasingly prevalent health issue worldwide, and research on its effects is of great importance. In the study, the performance comparison of different machine learning techniques is carried out with the data presented in the Palechor and Manotas (2019) research, along with a different synthetic data generation technique. Unlike the technique employed by Palechor and Manotas (2019), this study applies the SMOTE-NC (Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique for Nominal and Continuous) data generation method under different conditions. SMOTE-NC technique is used to eliminate the problem of unbalanced data in this data set, which is obtained to determine the risk of obesity by using various features such as age, gender, eating habits and physical activity. This method mitigates imbalance by synthetically increasing samples of minority classes, leading to a more balanced and reliable model performance. Additionally, unlike the SMOTE technique, SMOTE-NC is recommended for datasets containing both continuous and categorical variables. The study presents a comparison of classification algorithms including Naive Bayes, Logistic Regression, Random Forest, Decision Trees, K-Nearest Neighbors Algorithm, and Support Vector Machines (SVM) on both raw and augmented data. Conducted using Python programming, the performance of algorithms is evaluated based on metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score. Moreover, this study, which highlights the commonly encountered issue of imbalanced data in health data, is supported by TUBITAK (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey).

Bu nedenle ulu önder Türkiye Cumhuriyeti’ni kurarken emin adımlarla bazı inkılaplar yapma yoluna gitmiştir. Laiklik, halifelik makamını da elinde tutan bir egemen güçten sonra belki de en önemli ve gerçekleştirilmesi en zor olan inkılap olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Temelsiz bir zemine dayanmadan gerçekleşmeyecek laiklik için belli adımların atılması gerekiyordu. Öncelikle saltanatın kaldırılması ve halifenin değişiminden sonra herhangi bir siyasi gücü ve önemi kalmayan halifelik makamı 3 Mart 1924’te kaldırıldı. Böylece laik devlet için en önemli adım atıldı. Bu önemli iki adımdan sonra eğitim, hukuk ve askeri alanlarda da değişimler yaşandı ve dinin etkisi bu kurumlarından üzerinden kaldırıldı. Tevhit-i Tedrisat kanunu ile eğitimde ikilikler ortadan kalkmış ve dinin etkisinden ayrılmıştır. Seriye ve Evkaf Vekâleti ve Erkan-ı Harbiye-i Umumiye Vekâletlerinin Kaldırılması da vakıflar ve askeriyenin laikleşme çalışmalarından biri olmuştur. Bu bahsettiğimiz aşamalardan sonra en son olarak Laiklik anayasaya girmiş ve Türkiye Cumhuriyeti laik devlet olarak anayasada yer almıştır. Cumhuriyet’i kuran kadro ve özellikle Atatürk, yönü Batı olan bir ulus devleti için çabalamıştır. Hem Batı’ya ayak uyduran hem de milliyetçilik bilincinde olan yeni bir devletin var olabilmesi ve ayakta kalabilmesi için laiklik çok önemlidir. Eğer laiklik ilkesine sadece din ve siyaset perspektifinden bakarsak hem kuruluş felsefesini anlayamayız hem de devletimiz ve milletimiz için laikliğin anlamı eksik kalmış olur. Orta Asya steplerinden beri dine dayalı bir yönetim anlayışına sahip olan bir millet için alışması, kabullenmesi zor olan laiklik günümüzde bile en çok tartışılan konuların başında gelmektedir. Bu çalışmamızda laiklik kavramı anayasaya girene kadar hangi aşamalardan geçildi, hangi adımlar atıldı ve bu yapılanlara karşı gösterilen tepkiler neler oldu sorularının cevapları irdelenmiştir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EVALUATIONS ON SECULARISM IN THE EARLY REPUBLICAN PERIOD ABSTRACT For centuries, the concentration of sovereignty in a single person, especially the combination of this office with the caliphate, has become a problem that poses an obstacle to modernity. For this reason, the great leader took firm steps towards making some reforms while establishing the Republic of Turkey. Secularism appears as perhaps the most important and most difficult revolution to realize after a sovereign power that also holds the office of caliphate. Certain steps had to be taken for secularism, which could not be achieved without being based on a baseless basis. First of all, the office of caliphate, which no longer had any political power or importance after the abolition of the sultanate and the change of the caliph, was abolished on March 3, 1924. Thus, the most important step for the secular state was taken. After these two important steps, changes also took place in the fields of education, law and military, and the influence of religion was removed from these institutions. With the Tevhit-i Tedrisat law, dualities in education were eliminated and separated from the influence of religion. The abolition of the Ministry of Seriye and Foundations and the Ministry of Erkan-ı Harbiye-i Umumiye was also one of the secularization efforts of the foundations and the military. After the stages we mentioned, secularism was finally included in the constitution and the Republic of Turkey was included in the constitution as a secular state. The team that founded the Republic, and especially Ataturk, strived for a nation-state whose orientation was Western. Secularism is very important for the existence and survival of a new state that keeps pace with the West and is nationalist-conscious. If we look at the principle of secularism only from the perspective of religion and politics, we cannot understand the founding philosophy and the meaning of secularism for our state and nation will be missing. Secularism, which is difficult to get used to and accept for a nation that has had a religion-based management approach since the Central Asian steppes, is one of the most discussed topics even today. In this study, the answers to the questions of what stages were passed until the concept of secularism was included in the constitution, what steps were taken and what were the reactions to these actions were examined. Keywords: Secularism, Change, Consciousness, Caliphate 141 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal MINIMALIST APPROACH IN PATRICK CAULFIELD ILLUSTRATIONS ABSTRACT One of the 20th century's leading painters, Patrick Caulfield is considered a minimalist artist. In his works, he uses vector illustration, one of the fields of graphic design. In Cauldfield's works, the integration of illustration and interior space is seen. Although linear forms and colors are used in the integration of space, his works have a two-dimensional and three dimensional effect. The figures and forms created linearly are formed with simple geometric shapes that provide continuity in space. Caulfield's design approach is minimalism, a movement formed in opposition to ABSTRACT expressionism. Minimalism style aims for simple expression by using a plain language. The movement started to become popular in the 1960s and progressed in an ABSTRACT expression. In the approach of the minimalism movement, it is observed that geometric figures, ABSTRACTed forms are conveyed with simple, simple and sharp lines. In Patrick Caulfield's design approach; it is seen that there is a majority of vector-based illustrative applications that deal with British art through a minimalist approach. Within the scope of this research, the minimalist attitude in Caulfield's vector-based illustrative applications will be examined. In the research, the descriptive survey model, one of the qualitative research methods, will be used and it will be tried to reveal how Patrick Caulfield's minimalist approaches play a role in British art under the field of vector illustration, one of the graphic design fields.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal CONSONANTS IN TWO LANGUAGES OF THE SAME LANGUAGE FAMILY WITHIN COMPARATIVE STUDY ABSTARCT If two or more languages have common features in their grammatical structure and lexical composition, these languages are genetically related languages and they are descended from one common source, conventionally called the “root language”. The object of our research is the consonant sounds of the Persian and Pashto languages belonging to the Iranian group of the Indo-European language family.Widespread in the East with classical works written on it the Persian language which has an ancient history, belongs to the Iranian group of the IndoEuropean language family. This language is the official state language of the Islamic Republic of Iran.The Pashto language, which belongs to the Iranian group of Indo-European languages, as the mother tongue of the Pashtuns, is mainly spread throughout southern and southeastern Afghanistan, as well as in northwestern and western Pakistan. It is the official state language in Afghanistan along with Dari language. By using the Arabic alphabet in writing, both languages have added different letters and diacritical marks to the existing letters of the Arabic alphabet. The Persians added 4 graphic samples to the Arabic alphabet: the Pashtuns added 18 and improved their alphabet according to their pronunciation.Although Pashto and Persian belong to the same language group, they differ significantly in terms of the number of consonants and vowels. In Persian there are 23 consonants, 6 monophthong vowels and 1 diphthong; while Pashto has 30 consonants, 9 vowels and 7 monophthong vowel sounds. Thus, if the letters of the Persian language are identified in the form of only 30 graphic patterns, the total number of letters in the Pashto language is 46. This happens mainly due to the presence of many monophthongs and diphthongs in Pashtun pronunciation, as well as the nasalization of many vowels and consonants (nasal vowel; nasal consonant) and the presence of special consonants of this language. Keywords: Indo-European language group, Iranian languages, Pashto language, vowel sounds, consonant sounds. 154 VI.

ABSTRACT The basic precaution that is taken after experiencing a little symptom of abnormal actions in our body is medicine. These medicines are used for precautionary purposes or to tackle abnormal activities inside the host. The usage of medication creates a complex experience for the patients and the doctors, as the medicines are valid for a certain period of time (i.e., the expiration date), and the identification of various classifications of the same kind of medicine makes the task more vigorous. The medicines in the form of pills are available in the same shape with different components, so the knowledge of differentiating between those medicines is only available to professionals. Since the medicines are being used by people who do not have knowledge of them, the identification of these medicines is made much simpler by adding a certain Quick Response (QR) code that specifies the expiry date, type of medicine, nearest available medical stores, and caution along with the medicine for side effects and allergy identification. Some existing applications with these features lack proof along with the medication recommendation. A survey emphasizes that people get afraid of wrong information from some unknown application regarding a life-related recommendation, so valid proof is required for people to follow such recommendations. Hence, this idea is aimed at providing the necessary real-time possible outcomes of those medicines so as to avoid fear. This method of identification is possible only when the manufacturing of these medicines is done in a fashion so as to regulate certain codes for certain pills. This method makes the task of identification much easier. Along with precautions and side effects information about those medicines, people taking medications place a strong faith in the search results provided.

Email: psi.sh@rmkec.ac.in ABSTRACT Mathematics forms the cornerstone of image processing, providing a robust framework for analyzing, manipulating, and interpreting digital images across various domains. This ABSTRACT delves into the multifaceted applications of mathematics in image processing, elucidating its pivotal role in transforming raw pixel data into actionable insights. At the core of image processing lies linear algebra, facilitating operations such as image transformation, enhancement, and compression. Matrices and vectors represent images, while linear transformations enable geometric alterations such as rotation, scaling, and translation. Additionally, Fourier analysis harnesses the power of mathematics to decompose images into frequency components, enabling techniques such as Fourier filtering and edge detection. Convolution, a fundamental operation in image processing, utilizes mathematical kernels to perform tasks such as blurring, sharpening, and edge detection. Moreover, mathematical morphology facilitates shape-based analysis and object extraction, while histogram analysis offers insights into pixel intensity distributions for contrast enhancement and segmentation. The advent of advanced mathematical concepts has revolutionized image processing. Wavelet transforms provide a multi-resolution analysis framework, enabling compression, denoising, and feature extraction. Partial differential equations play a crucial role in image restoration and inpainting, preserving image structures while suppressing noise and artifacts. In recent years, machine learning and deep learning techniques have leveraged mathematical principles to achieve state-of-the-art performance in image processing tasks. Neural networks, convolutional architectures, and optimization algorithms harness mathematical optimization and statistical methods for tasks such as image classification, object detection, and image generation. In essence, mathematics serves as the bedrock of image processing, empowering engineers and researchers to unravel the intricacies of digital images and unlock their full potential across diverse applications, from medical diagnostics and remote sensing to computer vision and digital art.

Email: Op.dr.mustafasahin@gmail.com ABSTRACT Introductıon: Neuroendocrine tumors, formerly called "Carcinoid Tumor", which can be seen in areas where neuroendocrine cells are present, are most commonly seen in the appendix. However, it is the most common tumor of the appendix. Its incidence in other organs is 23% in the ileum, 13% in the rectum and 11.5% in the bronchi. Although it is most often seen between the ages of 30-40, it can also be seen in children. 71% of them are located at the tip of the appendix, and 70% are smaller than 1 cm. The rate of carcinoid tumors in patients with appendectomy is 0.3-0.9%. In our study, a patient diagnosed with carcinoid tumor after appendectomy is presented. CASE: A 22-year-old female patient admitted to the emergency department with severe abdominal pain. In the physical examination, abdominal guarding and rebound tenderness were present and in the blood tests, the WBC was 17,000. The patient's computed tomography was reported as "appendix diameter is 12 mm, its surroundings are dirty and there is appendicolith in the lumen". The patient was taken into operation with the preliminary diagnosis of acute appendicitis. The patient underwent laparoscopic appendectomy. There were no problems in the follow-up of the patient and the patient was discharged in full recovery on the first postoperative day. The patient then came to the outpatient clinic with the pathology result. The patient's pathology result was "appendix carcinoid tumor". According to the report, the tumor was at the tip of the appendix and the distance of the tumor to the root of the appendix was 4 cm. Since the tumor was at the tip of the appendix, the medical oncology department was contacted and the patient was followed up. No problems requiring reintervention were encountered during follow-up. Conclusıon: Carcinoid tumours of the appendix often occur with the clinical picture of acute appendicitis. In most cases, they are found incidentally during appendectomies and the diagnosis of carcinoid tumor is rarely suspected before histopathological diagnosis. Although life expectancy is good, imaging should be emphasised in the close follow-up of this group of patients because of the high rate of concomitant colorectal tumours.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal MIRIZZI SYNDROME AND CHOLEDOC INJURY ENCOUNTERED DURING CHOLECYSTECTOMY OPERATION Fatih TURKOGLU (ORCID: 0000-0001-5128-4419) Selcuk University, Faculty of Medicine, Department of General Surgery, Konya, Türkiye. Email: drfatihturkoglu@hotmail.com Dr. Mustafa ŞAHİN (ORCID: 0000-0003-4757-4493) Health Sciences University, Konya Beyhekim Training and Research Hospital, Department of General Surgery, Konya, Türkiye. Email: Op.dr.mustafasahin@gmail.com ABSTRACT Introduction: Cholecystectomy is one of the most frequently performed operations in general surgery clinics all over the world. Complications that may occur after cholecystectomy are the nightmares of general surgeons due to the difficulty of management and the need for experience and knowledge. In particular, bile duct injuries can lead to serious problems that can lead to loss of life if not recognised during the operation. In our study, the case management of biliary tract injury caused by Mirizzi Syndrome during the cholecystectomy operation performed on a patient diagnosed with chronic cholecystitis is presented. CASE: It was learned that a 44-yearold female patient was admitted to a Tertiary Health Facility and received medical treatment as a result of an acute cholecystitis attack approximately 12 years ago. When the patient's medical records were examined, the hepatobiliary ultrasound performed on the patient revealed many calculus in the gallbladder, increased wall thickness and increased pericholecystic fluid. After the patient recovered with medical treatment and his pain disappeared, he was discharged and invited for surgery 6 weeks later. However, it was learned that the patient avoided the operation due to fear of surgery. The patient had 4 more attacks in a 12-year period and received treatment at various health centers. After medical treatment, the operation was planned for the patient who was admitted to our hospital during his last attack, and the patient was prepared for the operation under elective conditions. The operation was started laparoscopically and it was observed that the patient's omentum and transverse colon were rigidly adherent to the gallbladder. The gallbladder was opened in a controlled manner and it was seen that the gallbladder was attached to the bile duct. After controlled dissections, it was understood that the gallbladder was fistulized into the bile duct (Mirizzi type 4). Since the adhesions were severe, it was decided to continue the operation with laparotomy. In this case, the gallbladder was separated from the bile duct and cholecystectomy was completed. A T-tube was placed in the bile duct, and the integrity of the bile ducts was seen in the subsequent choledochography. The procedure was terminated by placing a drain. The patient's T-tube was removed after 20 days, and the patient was discharged in full recovery, as there was no problem in the postoperative follow-up. Conclusion: Biliary tract injuries are one of the most feared complications of cholecystectomy operations and are a headache for surgeons due to the difficulty of management and the problems that may develop afterwards. The most important process is to recognize this situation at the time of the surgery and make a decision about what to do. Keywords: Mirizzi Syndrome, Cholecystectomy, Complication 169 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal HEIDEGGER’İN TEKNİK KAVRAMI ÜZERİNDEN METROPOLİS FİLMİNİN BİR ANALİZİ Arş.

Gökçe SARI (ORCID: 0000-0001-7760-3828) Süleyman Demirel University, Faculty of Human and Social Sciences, Department of Philosophy, Isparta-Türkiye Email: gokcebaskesen@sdu.edu.tr ÖZET Bu çalışmada Fritz Lang'ın 1927 yapımı "Metropolis" adlı sinema filminde işlenen temalar hakkında detaylı bir analiz sunulmaktadır. Filmde teknolojik gelişmelerin hayata nasıl yansıdığı, insanların kapitalist ve proletarya olarak adlandırabileceğimiz şekliyle iki sınıfa ayrılması, yer altı ve yer üstü şehirleri arasındaki ayrım, düşünmeyi kışkırtan unsurlar, teknolojinin hayat üzerindeki olumsuz ve yıkıcı etkileri gibi konular ele alınmaktadır. Tüm bu işlenen konular Heidegger’in teknik kavramına yüklemiş olduğu anlamı akıllara getirmektedir. Heidegger’ın teknik kavramına yönelttiği eleştirileri göz önünde bulundurduğumuzda film, onun düşünme kavramıyla da bize bir şeyler söylemektedir. Heidegger, teknik sözcüğünün kökenini araştırdığında Grekçe Tekhnikon yani tekhne’ye ait olan anlamına geldiğini görür. Buradan hareketle teknik ve tekhne arasında bağ kurmaya başlar. Tekhne hem el becerisi el sanatları anlamında hem de zihinsel sanatlar anlamında kullanılmaktadır. Bu durumda tekhnede asıl olan şey poiesis’tir, yani öne çıkarmadır. Ona göre amaç ve araç, açığa çıkmanın alanına girer ve araç olan tekniğin özüne inmeye çalıştığımız zamanda gizini açma ile karşı karşıya kalırız. Bu durumda teknik sadece bir araç değildir, gizini açmanın ve hakikatin alanına da girmektedir. Bu anlamda Heidegger, düşünmeyi de tekniğe ulaşmada önemli görür. Çünkü bir şeyi görünüşe getirmenin dibinde kök salan şey “düşünmedir”. Heidegger, modern insanın doğaya ve varlığa bakışını eleştirmekte ve bunun teknikle bağlantısı olduğunu düşünmektedir. Ona göre tekniğin yanlış yorumlanması insanın doğayla olan ilişkisini bozmakta ve onu doğanın bir parçası olarak görmek yerine onu kontrol etmeye çalışan bir varlık haline getirmektedir. Heidegger’in teknik konusundaki eleştirileri ve asıl anlamda tekniğin özünün düşünme olduğunun unutulması bakış açısıyla filmdeki karakterlerin düşünme süreçleri, teknolojinin insanlar üzerindeki etkileri çalışmamızda detaylı bir şekilde incelenmektedir. Ayrıca filmdeki hakikat arayışı, düşünme eyleminin önemi, teknolojinin gizemli yönleri ve insanın bu süreçteki rolü gibi konulara odaklanıldığı zaman tüm bunlarda Heidegger’in izlerini bulmak mümkündür. Sonuç olarak bu çalışmada Heidegger’in teknik kavramı aracılığıyla Metropolis filmindeki teknolojinin yıkıcı boyutları, karakterlerin yaşadığı deneyimler, düşünme süreçleri ve hakikat arayışlarının bir analizi sunulmuştur.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal AN ANALYSIS OF THE MOVIE METROPOLIS THROUGH HEIDEGGER'S TECHNICAL CONCEPT ABSTRACT In this study, a detailed analysis is presented about the themes in Fritz Lang's 1927 movie "Metropolis". The film deals with topics such as how technological developments are reflected in life, the division of people into two classes that we can call capitalist and proletariat, the distinction between underground and aboveground cities, elements that provoke thought, and the negative and destructive effects of technology on life. All these topics bring to mind the meaning Heidegger gave to the concept of technique. Considering Heidegger's criticisms of the concept of technique, the film also tells us something with his concept of “thinking”. When Heidegger investigates the origin of the word technique, he sees that it comes from the Greek word Technikon, meaning belonging to tekhne. From this point on, he begins to establish a connection between technique and techne. Tekhne is used both in the sense of manual dexterity and in the sense of mental arts. In this case, the main thing in techne is poiesis, that is, bringing to the fore. According to him, the purpose and the means enter the field of revelation, and when we try to get to the essence of the technique, which is the tool, we are faced with revealing the secret. In this case, technology is not just a tool, it also enters the field of revealing and truth. In this sense, Heidegger sees thinking as important in achieving technique. Because what is rooted at the bottom of bringing something into appearance is "thinking". Heidegger criticizes modern man's view of nature and existence and thinks that this has a connection with technology. According to him, misinterpretation of technique disrupts man's relationship with nature and turns him into an entity that tries to control nature rather than seeing it as a part of nature. In our study, the thinking processes of the characters in the film and the effects of technology on people are examined in detail from the perspective of Heidegger's criticisms of technology and forgetting that the essence of technique is thinking. In addition, when the film focuses on topics such as the search for truth, the importance of the act of thinking, the mysterious aspects of technology and the role of humans in this process, it is possible to find traces of Heidegger in all of these. As a result, in this study, an analysis of the destructive dimensions of technology, the experiences of the characters, their thinking processes and their search for truth in the movie Metropolis is presented through Heidegger's technical concept.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal FACTORS AFFECTING THE SUCCESS OF PORCELAIN LAMINATE VENEER RESTORATIONS ABSTRACT The increasing aesthetic expectations of patients in dental treatments lead dentists to use more aesthetic materials and perform more precise applications. Porcelain laminate veneer applications have become one of the preferred treatment methods for addressing patients' aesthetic concerns. Porcelain laminate veneers (PLVs) have become increasingly popular in recent years as a treatment option for rehabilitating poor aesthetics in teeth with positional or shape abnormalities, discoloration, fractures due to trauma, or wear. These restorations are frequently used today due to their fracture resistance in marginal regions, long-term color stability, and resistance to wear. Porcelain laminate veneers, whether applied with minimal preparation or no-preparation have become a commonly used treatment in dentistry while also preserving healthy dental tissue. The diagnostic wax-up method in these restorations allows for planning the final stage before preparation and the preparation of temporary restorations. One of the important success factors for porcelain laminate veneers is the clinician's experience and controlled removal of dental tissue. Preparation completed in enamel enhances the bond strength of resin cement, while restoration completed in dentin creates microleakage. Materials used for laminate veneers today include feldspathic ceramics produced by the powder-liquid firing method, glass ceramics, oxide ceramics, and ceramics cad-cam manufacturing method. Factors influencing the long-term success of porcelain laminate veneers include the structure of the tooth surface, depth of preparation, type and thickness of porcelain, type of resin cement and dental adhesive, tooth morphology, and functional and parafunctional jaw movements. The most significant causes of failure in these restorations are fracture, microleakage, and debonding from the tooth surface. The purpose of this review is to evaluate current fabrication techniques, materials, and clinical success parameters used in porcelain laminate veneers.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal DEVELOPMENT OF CRISPR-Cas9 TECHNOLOGY Jenifer Alat STEPHEN (ORCID:0009-0000-6585-542X) Faculty of General Medicine, Tashkent Medical Academy, Tashkent, Uzbekistan Email:jeniferalatstephen@gmail.com ABSTRACT CRISPR-Cas9 technology has emerged as a powerful tool for precise gene editing and has significantly advanced the field of genetic engineering. The development of this technology began with the discovery of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and the associated Cas9 protein in bacteria. These CRISPR sequences were found to play a role in the bacterial immune system by recognizing and cleaving foreign DNA. The CRISPR-Cas9 system consists of two main components: the guide RNA (gRNA) and the Cas9 protein. The gRNA is designed to specifically bind to the target DNA sequence of interest, while the Cas9 protein acts as a molecular scissor, cutting the DNA at the targeted location. The simplicity and versatility of the CRISPR-Cas9 system have revolutionized genetic engineering. Compared to previous gene editing techniques, such as zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs) and transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs), CRISPR-Cas9 is more efficient, cost-effective, and easier to implement. It allows scientists to precisely modify DNA sequences by either introducing specific changes or deleting and inserting genetic material. The applications of CRISPR-Cas9 technology are vast and span across various fields. In biomedicine, CRISPRCas9 holds great promise for the treatment of genetic disorders. By correcting disease-causing mutations, researchers aim to develop novel therapies for conditions such as cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, and muscular dystrophy. Additionally, CRISPR-Cas9 has been used to engineer immune cells for cancer immunotherapy, enhancing their ability to target and eliminate cancer cells. In agriculture, CRISPR-Cas9 offers opportunities for developing crops with improved traits, such as resistance to pests, diseases, and environmental stresses. This technology can also be used to enhance crop yield and nutritional content, contributing to global food security. Furthermore, CRISPR-Cas9 has revolutionized basic scientific research, allowing scientists to study gene function and understand the underlying mechanisms of diseases. By selectively modifying genes in model organisms, researchers can gain insights into the roles of specific genes and their impact on biological processes. Despite its immense potential, there are still challenges associated with CRISPR-Cas9 technology. Off-target effects, where Cas9 mistakenly edits unintended DNA sequences, are a concern and efforts are being made to improve the specificity of the system. Ethical considerations regarding the use of CRISPR-Cas9 in human germline editing and potential unintended consequences also need to be carefully addressed. In conclusion, the development of CRISPR-Cas9 technology has opened up new possibilities in genetic engineering and biotechnology. Its simplicity, efficiency, and versatility have paved the way for advancements in medicine, agriculture, and scientific research.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal FROM TRADITION TO TRENDS: THE EMERGENCE OF FOLK ART INNOVATION BY RURAL ENTREPRENEURS OF UTTAR DINAJPUR Ripom Paul (ORCID:0000-0002-9020-4300) Raiganj University, Department of Sociology, Raiganj, Uttar Dinajpur District, West Bengal, India. Email:ripompaulgrp@gmail.com ABSTRACT Rural entrepreneurship initiates transformative change in villages through innovative activities aimed at achieving economic gains. In the era of globalization, Indian villages are becoming increasingly interconnected with the global world. The traditional characteristics of Indian villages are rapidly evolving because of various local and global factors. Technological and communication advances, including mobile phones, the Internet, roads, and transportation, serve as connective mechanisms linking each village to the global landscape. The study states that the culture of folk art or pottery in the rural areas of North Dinajpur is experiencing revival and coexistence with global culture rather than decline. The research employs ethnography as a methodological paradigm for a deeper understanding of entrepreneurial activities, emphasizing field data collected through methods such as observation, in-depth unstructured interviews, and case studies. Two villages in the district were selected purposively and studied rigorously to understand the context of the study. Theoretically, Howard E. Aldrich aligns with the three main sociological concerns of entrepreneurship. First, "entrepreneurs can both reproduce and challenge existing social orders." Second, "Entrepreneurship ensures the reproduction of existing organizational populations and creates a basis for the creation of new populations depending on the diverse perspectives and skills of the founders, as well as the socio-political context in which it is created." Third, "entrepreneurs influence the level of stratification and inequality in society by shaping the life chances of founders and their employees." The findings highlight that social forces such as modernization and globalization have brought about radical changes in the craft, upending the status of traditional potters. Folk art coexists with the larger global culture, creating cultural hybrids to revitalize it. Through adaptations such as online marketing and payment modes, traditional artisans are being integrated into the larger capitalist system. Field observations reveal a diverse division of labor involving members of other races, technologies, and communication facilities. Various social processes act as driving factors, bringing about changes in the means of production, inspiring new marketing strategies, and creating employment opportunities for rural dwellers.

The presence of iron in ferrites also makes them effective catalysts for the oxidation of various organic pollutants, including dyes. Ferrites are iron oxide materials that contain iron (Fe) and other metallic cations such as nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), and others. There are several methods used to synthesize ferrites, including Sol-gel, co-precipitation, solid state, hydrothermal, and microemulsion. In the proposed study, the sol-gel technique will be adopted to synthesize the Cobalt Nickel ferrites. The suggested method involves the hydrolysis of metal alkoxides to form a gel-like precursor, which will then be heated to form ferrite particles. Synthesized ferrites were characterized by using SEM, XRD, VSM FTIR, and UV-visible spectroscopy. The synthesized ferrites were then tested for the photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange MO and methylene blue MB under Visible light irradiation.

In recent years, a particularly popular approach includes the application of contemporary computational methods for the quantification of changes in resolution unit values and the use of the obtained features to train and test deep learning models. The features can be quantified using fractal analysis, by calculating fractal dimension and lacunarity, as well as through textural analysis. When quantifying texture, one can use approaches based on the gray-level cooccurrence matrix or run-length matrix, as well as the discrete wavelet transform. All of these quantifiers can be applied as input data for the development of complex artificial neural networks. The output data of the networks may include the state of the patient, the diagnosis, prognosis, or a status of a cell or tissue. Such deep learning models, based on multilayer perceptrons or convolutional neural networks, may in some cases achieve relatively high classification accuracy and other performance indicators. Here, we present our recent data on yeast cell models related to the creation of machine learning algorithms for the classification of sublethal cell damage induced by various chemical stimuli. We suggest that it may be possible to create a useful and affordable model that can be applied in future cell physiology, pathophysiology, and pathology research.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal UNDERSTANDING THE RISING THREAT OF CYBERCRIME AGAINST WOMEN IN INDIA PRABHU DAS (ORCID: 0000-0002-8964-6785) Birsa Munda College, State Aided College Teacher, Department of Sociology, Siliguri, Darjeeling, West Bengal, India. Pin- 734010 Email:prabhudas681@gmail.com ABSTRACT: Cybercrime is recognized as a global problem, with a substantial number of people falling victim to it. However, the severity of this issue is predominantly experiencing by women, posing a threat to their social lives. This research has delved into the intricate relationship between gender in cyberspace and the state, with a specific focus on gender identity that shapes the nature of cybercrime against women in the patriarchal social structure in India. Methodologically, the study focuses on secondary data, including various committee reports published by the Government of India, particularly those from the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB), as well as books, journal articles, publications, national and international research papers, newspapers, and magazines. These sources were utilized to investigate the intersectionality of these phenomena. The study employed intersectionality as a theoretical paradigm to understand how different identities of women in terms of age, religion, caste, and class, contribute to vulnerable situations to them in the cyber world. The theory also have been used to understand the experiences of women who suffer from different kinds of cyber-attacks. The study classifies various forms of cybercrimes against women in its recent trend. İt tries to analyse the effectivity of cyber laws and law enforcement processes that projects a different scenario of women’s status in cyber landscape. The study also highlights the patriarchal influences, gender socialization, gender inequality, and societal discrimination against women that lead to more cyberattacks, especially targeting minor girls. In addition to this, numerous other factors, such as the dynamics of power inequalities in every sphere of life, inherent evils of social structure, gender stereotypes, rigid masculinity, patriarchal social structure, and control over women’s sexuality, are also responsible for cyber-attacks against women in India. However, it emphasizes that women, particularly in the cyber world, are vulnerable and bear a significant burden of cyberattacks. Keywords: Cybercrime, Cyberlaws, Women, Identity, Patriarchy 185 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal IMMUNOTHERAPY FOR CANCER USING CHIMERIC ANTIGEN RECEPTORS (CARS) Soham BINDU Department of Biotechnology SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Kattankulathur, Tamil NAdu 603203 Email:sohambindu23@gmail.com Koustav SARKAR (ORCID:0000-0002-0696-6688) Department of Biotechnology SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Kattankulathur, Tamil NAdu 603203 Email: koustavsarkar@gmail.com ABSTRACT Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) are designed receptors that target cancer cells by combining an immune cell with a novel specialization. These immune cells could be either natural killer (NK) cells or T lymphocytes. Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) have proven to be an effective way to amplify and reroute the natural characteristics of both CD8+ and CD4+ T lymphocyte subsets, based on the efficacy of targeting CD19 in B cell malignancies. Dual-signalling CARs allow for the quick production of tumor-specific drugs for each individual cancer patient by reprogramming T cells' effector, metabolic, and survival capabilities in addition to redirecting and activating them. Cell-based therapy has undergone a significant change as a result of this strategy. Rather than relying on the discovery and growth of uncommon naturally occurring T cells with therapeutic potential, it now produces optimal T cell products through genetic engineering. An important part of the immune system, NK cells are essential for innate immunity. For CAR engineering, NK cells provide an alternative to T-cells. NK-cells have the potential to be a source of allogeneic "off-the-shelf" cellular therapy because they do not induce GVHD or other alloimmune or autoimmune toxicities. They can mediate significant anti-tumor effects without causing potentially fatal alloreactivity like GVHD. Researchers are currently investigating the use of CAR-engineered NK cells for the treatment of various haematological and non-haematological malignancies due to the several distinct benefits of NK cells. NK-cells, on the other hand, are only authorized for preclinical studies, in contrast to CAR-Tcells.

Email:sakmub828@gmail.com ABSTRACT There are many different cognitive effects of screen use, both good and bad. It may enhance young children's abilities and capacity for creative thought in the same way that it can enhance schooling and learning. Reading electronic books and using learning-to-read apps can help kids become more proficient readers and thinkers. But screen timing should be the only thing it does. Excessive screen usage can impact cognitive domains like executive functioning, sensory motor development, and academic performance. Additionally, it negatively impacts social, cognitive, physical, spoken language, and social development. A child's language development is impacted by the reduction of screen time in quality time and interaction with parents, caregivers, teachers, and elders. It detracts from psychological health. Metabolic syndrome is also a result of excessive screen time (MetS). The term "Mets" refers to a group of conditions that include obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, various chronic illnesses, and early mortality. Features including abdominal obesity, elevated blood pressure, elevated fasting glucose, elevated triglycerides, and low HDL cholesterol may be considered clinical criteria for Metabolic Syndrome. It increases obesity and decreases physical activity. it increasing higher energy intake like sugar-sweetened beverages and high fat dietary intake cause increased secretion of insulin, and increases the amount of fat stores in the body which can lead to obesity. A child's body is less sensitive to insulin than an adult's, which causes insulin resistance and insulin-insensitive tissues, also known as type 2 diabetes mellitus. Parents or other caregivers should pay close attention to the timing of screen time because it might cause additional conditions that are detrimental to a child's development.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal A COMPARITIVE ANALYSIS OF ENFORCEMENT OF INVESTMENT ARBITRATION AWARDS IN INDIA, UK AND USA: Ananya LAMBA Symbiosis International University Adwita MANOCHA Symbiosis International University Sanidhya MUKUND Symbiosis International University ABSTRACT This research paper aims to compare different mechanisms associated with the recognition and enforcement of international investment awards under distinct jurisdictions, specifically focusing on the legal landscapes of India, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Principally, India has not participated in the ICSID Convention, thereby absolving it from any obligation to attend to investment arbitral awards on par with domestic court judgements as stated under Article 54. In addition to this, India has referred to the commercial reservation provision of Article I(3) within the Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards, that is the “New York Convention”. Subsequently, there is a restriction on the application of New York Convention in India solely to foreign awards arising from commercial relationships under the Indian law as elucidated by Section 44 of the Act. This paper aims to branch out and delve into how Indian courts interpret this provision, thereby acknowledging its applicability and potentially excluding investment arbitral awards from its scope at the same time. Unlike India, the regime in the United States of America is oriented towards a proenforcement stance, as far as investment arbitration awards under ICSID are concerned. The enforcement of such awards is governed by the provisions of the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) and the New York convention. The FAA lays down a framework for the enforcement of arbitration agreements and awards, encompassing both, domestic as well as international awards. Section 207 of this act deals particularly with ICSID awards, giving them the same status as final judgments of a U.S court as far as enforcement and recognition are concerned. The country is also a party to the New York Convention. Chapter-2 of the FAA ensures that it is implemented. As enshrined in Article-III of the convention, the US enforces and recognizes ICSID awards. Enforcement of ICSID awards however can be refused if one of the grounds mentioned in Article-V, such as a breach of public policy or procedural irregularities are found. The United Kingdom member of the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) and is a signatory to the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards. Further, the United Kingdom adheres to the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) Model Law on International Commercial Arbitration. The enforcement of an award depends on the country in which the seat of arbitration is situated and is governed by the rules followed in that country. In the UK, arbitration awards can be enforced by invoking the Arbitration Act 1996, the New York Convention, the Geneva Convention 1927, the Administration of Justice Act 1920, the Foreign Judgments (Reciprocal Enforcement) Act 1933, and Common Law. There are two procedures to enforce an arbitral award. The first method is to seek the leave of the Court to enforce the award, and the second is to seek the same relief from the national Courts as set out in the arbitral 192 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal award. The enforcement of the award can be challenged on the limited grounds laid down in the New York convention. The National Court can refuse to enforce the award if the Court opines that enforcement of the award would violate public policy. Arbitral proceedings dealing with complex issues of law can be appealed to the Supreme Court; this process can take approximately two years. There is a specified time limit in which the award is to be enforced. Non-compliance with an award is considered a violation of the arbitration agreement.

The aim of this study was to experiment with various geometries of silver, copper, and gold nanostructures, such as nanorods, spheres, and ellipses, to incorporate into hyperthermia-based medical treatment of cancerous tumors. In order to induce the destruction of malignant cells, the ambient temperature of these metal nanostructures was raised from 42 to 46 ℃, and the time taken for them to reach this temperature was calculated. In the spherical zone of malignant tissue, metallic nanostructures were analyzed using COMSOL Multiphysics heat transport module. The thermal responses of metallic nanostructures were assessed in various ways. In order to reach optimal treatment temperatures, different geometries showed varying degrees of heating over time. In contrast to other forms, nanorods specifically, silver nanorods coated in gold exhibited quick temperature attainment. Anticipating future uses in cancer treatment, this study offers important new insights into the role of metallic nanoparticles in hyperthermia.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal AWARENESS OF ERGONOMICS AMONG OIL PALM OFFICE WORKERS Nur Syazwani Binti Mohd Nawi School of Technology Management & Logistics, College of Business, Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM), 06010, Sintok, Kedah, Malaysia Nur Ezza Fitrani Binti Muhammad Fitri School of Technology Management & Logistics, College of Business, Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM), 06010, Sintok, Kedah, Malaysia ABSTRACT Ergonomics in the workplace is the science of adapting tasks and work environments to workers. It reviews how well employee tasks can be completed without straining their body and without risking long-term health. As a result, ergonomic principles play an essential role in ensuring employee's safety, health, comfort, effectiveness, quality, and well-being in their work environment. However, public awareness on this matter is still at a low level. This situation has led to an increase in the statistics of accidents and injuries occurring in the workplace. Thus, this study aims to investigate ergonomics awareness in a company in Lahad Datu, Sabah. A qualitative research method was used to obtain information from the respondents. This study gathered 12 respondents using interviews and observation. The interview questionnaire structure consisting of several questions such as demographics, ergonomics awareness amongst oil palm office workers, office furniture and workstation, office environment, posture adjustment, office arrangement and the best way to create awareness in employees to practice ergonomics in the office. Hence, the observation was using Nordic Body Map (NBM) and Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA). The study's findings show that the respondents still lack awareness of the importance of ergonomics implementation. As for the performance, it can be concluded that it is still in the unfavourable stage. Therefore, the need for improvement is required by the proposed improvement of implementation of ergonomics programs.

ABSTRACT Datura, a genus of medicinal herbs from the Solanaceae family, has both toxic and medicinal properties. Different plant parts of the Datura plant, especially D. stramonium L., commonly known as Datura or jimson weed, exhibit potent analgesic, antiviral, antidiarrheal and antiinflammatory activities, due to its wide range of bioactive components. With these pharmacological activities, D. stramonium can potentially be used to treat many human diseases, including ulcers, infections, wounds, rheumatism, gout, bruises, swellings, sciatica, fever, toothache, asthma, and bronchitis. Preliminary phytochemical studies on the plant extract of Datura revealed alkaloids, carbohydrates, cardiac glycosides, tannins, flavonoids, amino acids, and phenolic compounds. It also contains toxic tropane alkaloids, including atropine, scopolamine, and hyoscamine. Although some studies on D. stramonium have reported possible pharmacological effects, information about toxicity remains almost entirely uncertain. Furthermore, frequent use of D. stramonium for recreational purposes has resulted in toxic syndromes. Therefore, it becomes necessary to be aware of the toxic aspects and potential risks associated with its use. The present review aims to summarize the phytochemical composition, pharmacological and toxicological aspects of Datura plant.

Bu bağlamda çalışmada 1963-2023 yılları arasındaki kalkınma planlarında, çevre sorunları, çevre kirliliği, çevre yönetimi, kentleşme ve konut politikası, insan sağlığı, sürdürülebilir kalkınma ve ekonomik politikalar çevre ile ilişkisi bağlamında ele alınarak çevre politikası değerlendirmeye alınmıştır. Çevre sorunlarının çözümü için uygulanan bu politikalar hem Avrupa Birliği hem de uluslararası standartlar çerçevesinde egemen politik-yönetsel bir anlayışın hakim olduğu görülmektedir. Ayrıca kalkınma planlarında ortaya konan hedefler ve ilkeler doğrultusunda ilk aşamada “çevreyi dışlamayan kalkınma” anlayışı hakim olurken daha sonra “sürekli ve dengeli (sürüdürlebilir) kalkınma” anlaşıyışının hakim olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır. Çevrenin korunması açısından etkili sonuçlar elde edilebilmesi için çevre politkalarının tutarlı ve kararlı şekilde benimsenip uygulanması çevre-kalkınma ilişkisinin etkinliğini de artırmaktadır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EVALUATION OF THE ENVIRONMENT-DEVELOPMENT RELATIONSHIP IN DEVELOPMENT PLANS ABSTRACT Countries around the world, which have been exposed to significant environmental problems since the 1970s, have established various institutions, enacted laws and prepared plans to solve the problems. A series of development plans have been created to target socially, culturally and economically balanced growth and rapid development, and to use the country's resources more efficiently. As a matter of fact, development plans prepared every five years are an important determinant in guiding environmental policies and containing environmental regulations. As a matter of fact, the effectiveness of environmental policy is directly related to society's relationship with the environment. Therefore, environmental policy is the development of activities aimed at protecting and improving the environment in line with the targets determined to regulate society's relationship with the environment. In this context, in the study, environmental problems, environmental pollution, environmental management, urbanization and housing policy, human health, sustainable development and economic policies were evaluated in the context of their relationship with the environment in the development plans between 1963 and 2023. These policies implemented for the solution of environmental problems seem to be dominated by a dominant political-administrative approach within the framework of both the European Union and international standards. In addition, in line with the targets and principles set out in the development plans, it was concluded that while the understanding of "development that does not exclude the environment" dominated in the first stage, the understanding of "continuous and balanced (sustainable) development" dominated later on. In order to achieve effective results in terms of environmental protection, the consistent and determined adoption and implementation of environmental policies also increases the effectiveness of the environment-development relationship. .Keywords: Environmental Problems, Environmental Policies, Development Plans 198 VI.

Bu ölümlerin nedenleri, ülkelerin gelişmişlik durumlarına bağlı olarak belirgin şekilde değişmekte olup büyük kısmının önlenebilir nedenlere bağlı olarak geliştiği görülmektedir. Sağlık Bakanlığı tarafından yayınlanan raporda 2015-2019 yılları arasında gerçekleşen anne ölümlerinin %45’inin önlenebilir nedenlerden kaynaklandığı belirtilmektedir. Bu önlenebilir nedenler incelendiğinde, enfeksiyonun anne ölüm oranında önemli bir paya sahip olduğu tespit edilmektedir. Prekonsepsiyonel dönemde gelişen riskli davranışlar ve enfeksiyon etkenlerine maruziyet durumundan kaynaklı olarak gebelikte görülen maternal ve perinatal enfeksiyonlar, hem anne hem de fetüs için ciddi morbidite ve mortaliteye neden olmaktadır. Bu enfeksiyonlar gebelikte abortusa, intrauterin ölüme, fetusta konjenital anomaliye ve neonatal enfeksiyona neden olmaktadır. Maternal ve perinatal enfeksiyonlar sadece gebeliği etkilemekle kalmayıp aynı zamanda doğum sonu neonatal süreçte malformasyonlara da neden olabilmekte hatta asemptomatik olan yenidoğanlarda belirti ve bulgular ile yaşamın ilerleyen sürecinde de etkileri görülebilmektedir. Amerikan Obstetri ve Jinekoloji Birliği (ACOG-American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology), Kanada Obstetri ve Jinekoloji Birliği (SOGC-Society of Obstetricians and Gynocologists of Canada) ve Hastalık Önleme ve Kontrol Merkezi (CDCP-Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) maternal perinatal enfeksiyonların tespiti için tüm gebelerden 35-37. gebelik haftasında tarama amacıyla vajinorektal kültür alınmasını önermektedir. Oldukça önemli bir halk sağlığı sorunu olan bu enfeksiyonların gelişmesinin önüne geçme ve etkilerinin önlenebilmesi için gerekli bakım ve danışmanlığın sağlanması elzemdir. Doğum öncesi bakım ve danışmanlıkta amaç enfeksiyon etkenlerine karşı kişileri korumak ve olası problemlere karşı önlem almaktır. Bu bakım ve danışmanlık multidisipliner olarak sağlık profesyonellerince verilmekte olup ebeler ve hemşirelerin rollerinin oldukça önemli olduğu bilinmektedir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal CARE AND COUNSELING IN MATERNAL-PERINATAL INFECTIONS ABSTRACT Today, it is known that maternal deaths are an important public health problem worldwide. The causes of these deaths vary significantly depending on the development level of the countries, and most of them appear to be due to preventable causes. The report published by the Ministry of Health states that 45% of maternal deaths between 2015 and 2019 were due to preventable causes. When these preventable causes are examined, it is determined that infection has a significant share in the maternal mortality rate. Maternal and perinatal infections during pregnancy, caused by risky behaviors and exposure to infectious agents during the preconception period, cause serious morbidity and mortality for both the mother and the fetus. These infections cause abortion during pregnancy, intrauterine death, congenital anomalies in the fetus, and neonatal infection. Maternal and perinatal infections not only affect pregnancy, but also can cause malformations in the postpartum neonatal period, and their effects can even be seen in asymptomatic newborns with signs and symptoms later in life. American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG), Canadian Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology (SOGC) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDCP) maternal perinatal 35-37th week of all pregnant women to detect infections. recommends taking a vaginorectal culture for screening purposes during the gestational week. It is essential to provide the necessary care and consultancy to prevent the development of these infections, which are a very important public health problem, and to prevent their effects. The aim of prenatal care and counseling is to protect people against infectious agents and take precautions against possible problems. This care and consultancy is provided by multidisciplinary health professionals, and it is known that the roles of midwives and nurses are very important.

Dictatorships, in particular, tend to manipulate the media for their own purposes. Such authoritarian regimes have used the media to maintain control over society and consolidate their power. This paper aims to find the role of media in dictator propaganda and its effects on nation. Dictators have become adept at spreading their propaganda through the media. They have manipulated public perception by controlling statesponsored media outlets, producing content praising their leadership, and suppressing dissenting voices. This serves to present leaders in a sacred image and legitimize dictatorships. Censorship and repression aremethods frequently used by dictatorships to consolidate their control over the media. With practices such as closing down independent media outlets, putting pressure on journalists, and even imprisoning them, dictators have silenced opposing voices while ensuring the dissemination of the information they want. This situation has led to distortion of facts, misinformation and society’s alienation from reality. As seen in many examples throughout history, dictators such as Stalin, Mussolini, and Hitler manipulated the media for their own interests. These leaders used the media to support their ideologies and policies, shaping society’s mindset and suppressing dissenting voices. As a result, the role of the media in dictatorships has a huge impact on shaping society’s perception, controlling the flow of information and restricting freedom of thought. In this context, protecting media freedom and diversity is of critical importance for strengthening democratic values. Keywords: Dictator, Media, Politics 201 VI.

Bu sorunun çözümüne yönelik olarak, suyun yağsı kirleticilerden etkin bir şekilde arındırılması için bir dizi çalışma yapılmaktadır. Bu çalışmaların bir kısmı, polimerik üç boyutlu sorbentlerin hazırlanması ve yüzey modifikasyonu üzerinedir. Özellikle, yüzey modifikasyonu kullanılarak malzeme yüzeyinin pürüzlülük ve yüzey enerjisi parametreleri ele alınıp su temas açısının 90 ila 150°’nin üzerine çıkarılması ile hidrofobik/süperhidrofobik malzemeler elde edilmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Yaptığımız çalışmanın odak noktası, gelişmiş malzemelerin tasarımı ve uygulaması için etkin bir yaklaşım olan yüzey modifikasyonudur. Bu amaç doğrultusunda, dopaminin alkali sulu ortamda oksidatif polimerizasyonu ile oluşan polidopamin (PDA) ticari melamin sünger üzerine eş zamanlı kaplanmıştır. Oluşturulan PDA esaslı yüzeyde malzemeye ileri modifikasyonlara olanak tanıyan fonksiyonel gruplar da kazandırılmıştır. Bununla birlikte, dopaminin polimerizasyonuyla ilgili olarak substrat yüzeyinde birikimde sıklıkla karşılaşılan sorunlar ele alınmıştır. Bu sorunların başında, uzun birikim-reaksiyon süresi ve kaplamanın zayıf stabilitesi gelmektedir. Bu problemlerin üstesinden gelinebilmesi için polimerizasyon ortamında reaktif oksijen türleri üretebilecek bir katalizör sisteminden yararlanılmıştır. İlk olarak polimerizasyon süresine katalizör etkisinin incelenmesi için CuSO4, H2O2 ve farklı molar oranlarda CuSO4 ve H2O2 karışımı reaksiyon ortamına eklenmiştir. Çözeltilerin renk değişimleri ve UV-Vis absorbansları takip edilerek elde edilen sonuçlara göre ortamdaki H2O2 miktarı arttıkça PDA için karakteristik olan pikin absorbans değeri artmıştır. Daha sonra, değişen Cu2+/H2O2 katalizör oranlarında sentezlenen PDA ile kaplanmış melamin süngerler hazırlanmıştır ve katalizör oranının mekanik özellikler üzerindeki etkisi incelenmiştir. Bu çalışmanın sonucunda elde edilen ürün, yapısal olarak kararlı bir ara ürün olarak değerlendirilmiş ve ileri modifikasyonlara uygun olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu bulgu, su kirliliği sorununa etkili bir çözüm sunma amacıyla literatüre bir katkı yapmayı hedeflemektedir. Anahtar Kelimeler: dopamin, melamin, katalizör sistemi, mekanik davranış 202 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INVESTIGATION OF CATALYST EFFECT IN THE PREPARATION OF PDA BASED MELAMINE SPONGES ABSTRACT Water pollution from various sources, such as industrial, commercial and domestic activities, containing pollutants such as crude oil, oil and organic solvents, adversely affects all living organisms and the environment. In order to address this problem, a number of studies have been carried out to effectively purify water from oily pollutants. Some of these studies focus on the preparation of three-dimensional polymeric sorbents and surface modification. Specifically, the aim is to achieve hydrophobic/superhydrophobic materials by controlling parameters such as surface roughness and surface energy through surface modification, resulting in a water contact angle of 90 to 150° or higher. The focus of our study is on surface modification, which is an effective approach for the design and application of advanced materials. For this purpose, polydopamine (PDA) formed by oxidative polymerisation of dopamine in an alkaline aqueous medium was simultaneously coated onto a commercial melamine sponge. Functional groups were also introduced onto the PDA-based surface to allow further modification of the material. However, the problems often encountered in the deposition on the substrate surface related to the polymerisation of dopamine have been addressed. The main problems are the long deposition-reaction time and the poor stability of the coating. In order to overcome these problems, a catalyst system capable of generating reactive oxygen species in the polymerisation environment was used. Firstly, CuSO4, H2O2 and a mixture of CuSO4 and H2O2 at different molar ratios were added to the reaction medium to investigate the effect of the catalyst on the polymerisation time. According to the results obtained by monitoring the colour changes and UV-Vis absorbance of the solutions, the absorbance value of the peak characteristic for PDA increased with the increased amount of H2O2. Subsequently, melamine sponges coated with PDA synthesised at different Cu2+/H2O2 catalyst ratios were prepared and the effect of the catalyst ratio on the mechanical properties was studied. The product obtained as a result of this study was evaluated as a structurally stable intermediate and found to be suitable for further modifications. This finding is expected to make a contribution to the literature in order to provide an effective solution to the problem of water pollution.

Voriconazole belongs to the triazole class of antifungal drugs and, by its chemical structure, aims to control infections by inhibiting the growth and proliferation of fungal cells. Voriconazole is commonly used to treat serious fungal infections, especially aspergillosis. It is also effective in treating invasive candidiasis and other fungal infections. Voriconazole may also be used in the prophylactic treatment of patients with immunodeficiency conditions. In the literature review, studies on the quantity determination of voriconazole in pharmaceutical preparations were found. Changing industry technologies and quality control needs increase the need for faster, reliable and repeatable analytical methods in the analysis of pharmaceutical active ingredients. The aim of this study is to develop methods different from the methods in the literature for the quantification of the active ingredient Voriconazole in pharmaceutical preparations, to validate them, and at the same time to show that these methods can be applied by making quantification in pharmaceutical preparations containing the active ingredient Voriconazole.This study aims to analyze voriconazole in pharmaceutical preparations using the assisted UV-visible spectrophotometry method. Voriconazole is a triazole antifungal agent effective in the treatment of invasive fungal infections. This study aims to develop an analytical technique that will allow voriconazole to be measured in a simple and cost-effective manner. The method is based on the reduction of voriconazole by reaction with thionine under alkaline conditions.

Data from the West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil prices and the National Stock Exchange (NSE) of India are carefully examined over a ten-year period that includes both shortterm volatility and long-term trends. Finding the direction of causation between these factors and assessing the effect of changes in the price of crude oil on the Indian stock market are the main goals. To determine if variations in the price of crude oil cause subsequent movements in the Indian stock market, or vice versa, Granger Causality tests are employed. Regression analysis is also used to measure the strength and importance of this relationship. This study attempts to provide light on the complex dynamics underlying the interaction between global crude oil prices and the Indian stock market by analysing the data at both macro and local levels. These findings provide useful information for politicians devising economic policies, investors navigating the Indian market, and scholars delving further into the complex relationships between the global oil markets and the Indian economy. The study emphasizes how important it is to take the volatility of oil prices into account when making investments and formulating economic policies.

This is because the world is searching for new types of bio-materials for storing renewable energy and compost is easily available for its bio-circular economy, in which bio-waste can be easily converted into compost. Despite the complexity of compost this work has used a symmetric two electrode device to explore both faradic and non-faradic processes. These studies are done with different type of compost and current collectors using distilled water as an aqueous media. Generally three main techniques namely Galvanostatic chargedischarge studies (GCD), Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) are used to evaluate parameters such as charging and discharging time, specific capacitance, specific capacity etc. In addition, chrono-amperometery studies are done to study the stability of the device. Also the efficiency has been significantly affected by electrode material (compost) and electrolytes. The results demonstrate the charge storage's multifunctional behavior in compost as a bio-media. These researches provide the groundwork for novel, environmentally friendly bio-media that can be used to store charge. Keywords: Compost, Charge Storage, Non-Faradic, Faradic, Stability, 209 VI.

Shifting the mother's center of gravity to the back of the legs causes the body to experience progressive lordosis, and not infrequently, there is an increase in mobility of the sacroiliac and sacrococcygeal joints, which can cause lower back pain. One relaxation technique to facilitate labor is using a birth ball, which is also commonly known in Pilates exercises as using a birthing ball. This research uses a quasi-experimental design with a pretestposttest group design approach. A pretest was carried out in the intervention group and control group regarding self-efficacy before carrying out Pilates exercises, and the posttest was carried out for 1 hour. This study also measures the perception of low back pain in the third trimester of pregnancy and will compare the intervention group and the control group. A comparison of the degree of pain before and after the intervention given to the intervention group showed that there was a significant difference (p<0.05). After the intervention was given, the degree of selfefficacy showed that there was a significant difference (p<0.05) in the intervention group, which was classified as high self-efficacy at 94%. It needs to be promoted as an alternative to pregnancy exercise in midwifery service units, especially in basic-level service units, so that complaints of persistent musculoskeletal pain can be prevented and all pregnant women can make maximum use of basic-level services.

Concrete's main quality is its excellent compressive strength, but its main drawback is its low tensile strength. Most structures have been, are and will be for a long time built using concrete as their main constituent, but concrete is a relatively fragile material, so concrete constructions experience several problems in their life cycle, which can have a detrimental effect on the construction. A number of steps are required to make good use of the structure, with rehabilitation and reinforcement methods differing according to the nature of the problem. A significant percentage of structures require reinforcement or repair to ensure user safety before they reach the end of their useful life The strengthening of existing structures, adapted to additional operating constraintsInvolves the development of new and innovative methods, including the addition of traditional or composite bonded reinforcements. The present article deals with the behavior of a beam strengthened by the addition of bonded composite reinforcements.

Recently, the ability of bioactive compounds to regulate oxidative stress and apoptosis has received much attention. This study 212 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal investigates the intestinal-damaging effect of DON and the potential shielding effects of icariin in mice. In this regard, forty-eight mice were randomly assigned into four groups (n = 10): 1) Control (CON), 2) 100 mg/kg BW icariin (ICA), 3) 3 mg/kg BW DON (DON), 4) 3 mg/kg DON + 100 mg/kg BW icariin (DON + ICA). The experimental groups were treated with DON or ICA for 11 days. The results showed that DON significantly reduced average daily feed intake, average daily gain and triggered intestinal damage and barrier dysfunction as reflected by decreased TEER and increased DAO activity, as well as down-regulated tight junction proteins (claudin-1 and occludin). However, oral administration of ICA significantly attenuated these changes. ICA significantly alleviated DON-induced oxidative stress by scavenging ROS and MDA generation and increasing the antioxidant enzyme activities (T-SOD, CAT, and GSH-Px). Moreover, ICA markedly up-regulated mRNA and protein expression of Nrf2 and its downstream genes induced by DON. Taken together, ICA may serve as a potential mitigator against DON-induced intestinal injury and could be helpful for the development of novel treatments to combat gut diseases in humans and/or animals.

Email:sakmub828@gmail.com ABSTRACT There has been growing research to investigate the proportional relationship between higher workload and pregnancy complications. It is hypothesised that occupational stressors that hamper physical and psychological health have detrimental effects on fertility and pregnancy. Over the years evaluation in various female-dominated professions for associated high-risk pregnancies have revealed disturbances in ovulation and complications such as 1. Premenstrual syndrome, 2. Dysmenorrhea, 3. Preeclampsia, 4. Low birth weight, 5. Early pregnancy loss and 6.Hyperemesis gravidarum. In general female workers are more sensitive to stressors such as noise, heat, dust and vibrations in workstations. Exposure to Whole-Body or Hand-Arm vibration (WBV) has been reported to cause abnormal uterus positioning and anomalies in foetal position. Workstations like law firms, nursing assistants etc. that require long-standing, repetitive work result in risks of miscarriage and preterm labour due to restriction in movements. Asynchrony in circadian rhythm is faced by expecting women working in fixed night shifts often resulting in spontaneous abortions. Shockingly evaluation of female employees working in factories formulating oral contraceptives revealed experiencing symptoms associated with hyperestrogenism and episode of intermenstrual bleeding due to elevated levels of plasma ethinyl estradiol , following it occupational exposure of teratogens such as carbon-based organic solvents in workplaces like pharmaceuticals and dry cleaning industry increase the risk for stillbirth and “specific birth defects.”Subsequently pregnancy complications are higher in physicians due to chronic stress, exposure to anaesthetic gases and antineoplastic drugs. Although a number of publications indicate that occupational irritants adversely affect stages of pregnancy, more studies are needed to establish their mechanisms and how work stress should be decreased or eliminated during preconception and early pregnancy.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal PRODUCTION OF BIO-PLASTIC AND ITS CHARACTERIZATION USING BANANA PEEL Hafsa NAEEM Department of Biochemistry, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad. Email: ayesha.batool@outlook.com ABSTRACT At present the chemical industry is searching for substitute to decrease usage of petroleumbased non-degradable conventional plastics. In spite of their many uses and attractive properties, petroleum based conventional plastics have also many disadvantages such as production problems, landfill disposal, incineration, plastic recycling, and their adverse effect on biodiversity. Bioplastic are plastics derived from renewable biomass sources, composed of cellulose, starches, biopolymers, and a variety of other materials. In this research a starch based substrate banana peel was used and subjected to alkali and acid hydrolysis to convert it into bioplastic film. Synthesis of bioplastic was carried out in two phases. In first stage the process parameters pH and hydrolysis time was changed over a range of values. In this stage the pH of neutral range gave the best results for tensile strength analysis 0.552N/mm2 with optimum residence time (10 minutes). In the second stage, commonly available plasticizer like glycerin, sorbitol and urea was added and compared. The sorbitol, gave maximum tensile strength (34.310 N/mm2) with 41.434 N loads in this comparison. EDS analysis shows that C K was the highest element (6.73%) with 5.32 App conc and 0.7918 intensity concentration present in the biopolymer film.

Therefore, to break this chain, it is crucial to have an effective reprocessing of reusable medical devices (RMD. From this perspective, this study aimed to evaluate the steps of reprocessing RMD in Habib Bourguiba University Hospital (HBUH) as part of a quality improvement project and establish recommendations. This was an exhaustive cross-sectional study conducted during the period between July and September 2023 in all units involved in the sterilization process in HBUH Sfax Southern Tunisia. We used an observational checklist to evaluate the practice of different steps of reprocessing of RMD. We conducted one audit pass for each enrolled unit. This study included 10 operating units and a sterilization unit. The median value of the global conformity score (GCS) was 48/100 (IQR=[43.6-56]). We noted that 7 operating units (70%) had a poor level of conformity and 3 (30%) had a fair level of conformity. For the reprocessing environment evaluation, the median GCS was 30/100 (IQR= [20 – 50]). Seven units (70%) had a poor level of conformity. As for of pre-disinfection, the median GCS was 40/100 (IQR=[40 – 60]). We noted that 7 operating units had a fair level of conformity (70%). The median conformity score of cleaning was 90/100 (IQR= [70 – 92]). All operating units had a high conformity score for the section of cleaning. We noted that the median GCS of HLD was 50/100 (IQR= [45.83 – 75]). The median of GCS of sterilization was 66.6/100 (IQR= [16.6-100]). This audit has highlighted the majority of poor conformance scores that indicate significant flaws in the HBUH 's reprocessing of MD. It has become imperative to implement corrective measures, plan the centralization of the sterilizing unit. 216 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal STUDENTS' KNOWLEDGE OF THE HEALTHCARE ASSOCIATED INFECTION PREVENTION CLIMATE IN THE PRACTICE Souhir Chelly Infection prevention and control department, University Hospital of Farhat Hached, Sousse, Tunisia Boutheina Trabelsi Wercheni Infection prevention and control department, University Hospital of Farhat Hached, Sousse, Tunisia Asma Ammar Infection prevention and control department, University Hospital of Farhat Hached, Sousse, Tunisia Olfa Ezzi Infection prevention and control department, University Hospital of Farhat Hached, Sousse, Tunisia Mansour Njah Infection prevention and control department, University Hospital of Farhat Hached, Sousse, Tunisia Mohamed Mahjoub Infection prevention and control department, University Hospital of Farhat Hached, Sousse, Tunisia ABSTRACT Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) are the most common complications in the healthcare delivery process, and they have emerged as a significant public health problem due to their impact on patients and the healthcare system. Our study aimed to investigate the knowledge of nursing students regarding the climate for HAI prevention. We conducted a descriptive study among students from higher nursing institutes between February and March 2021. A preestablished self-administered questionnaire in French language was used for data collection. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 25 software. A total of 150 students responded to the questionnaire. The majority (57.3%) defined HAI as a hospital-acquired infection occurring after at least 48 hours. Only 40% of the students were aware of the different types of HAIs. The most commonly identified type was urinary tract infection (68.3%), and more than half (58.8%) identified staphylococcus as the most frequently implicated pathogen. Almost all students (94%) recognized poor asepsis as a leading cause of HAI development. The main mode of transmission identified was through materials and instruments (46%). The majority of students (90.7%) emphasized the importance of taking preventive measures while handling infected patients, and they acknowledged that standard precautions should be followed for all patient care (66.7%). A minority (12%) reported receiving hygiene training at their institute. The majority (83.3%) and nearly half (47.3%) acknowledged the effectiveness of hand hygiene in preventing HAIs. Additionally, most students were familiar with the types of handwashing and when to perform it. However, less than half (41.3%) indicated that hydro-alcohol friction could 217 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal replace simple handwashing. Nurses are required to take multiple precautions to prevent the occurrence and transmission of healthcare-associated infections. Therefore, enhancing their knowledge and skills is crucial in effectively preventing these infections. Keywords: Healthcare-associated infections, SPSS 218 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EVALUATION OF HEALTH PROFESSIONALS' KNOWLEDGE ON SEPTIC ISOLATION: RESULTS OF A QUASI-EXPERIMENTAL STUDY Bouthaina Trabelsi WERCHFENI Hygiene Department, Hedi Chaker University Hospital Houda Ben AYED Hygiene Department, Hedi Chaker University Hospital Mariem Ben HAMIDA Hygiene Department, Hedi Chaker University Hospital Mahdi KCHAW Hygiene Department, Hedi Chaker University Hospital Ons WALHA Hygiene Department, Hedi Chaker University Hospital Sourour YAICH Community Medicine and Epidemiology Department, Hedi Chaker University Hospital Jamel DAMAK Community Medicine and Epidemiology Department, Hedi Chaker University Hospital ABSTRACT The measures to be taken during septic isolation (SI) aim to avoid the transmission of a pathogenic germ or a multidrug-resistant one from one patient to another. This requires a good level of knowledge of isolation techniques. In this context, we conducted this study to assess the level of knowledge of healthcare professionals (HCP) on SI before and after a training cycle. We conducted a quasi-experimental study among HCP working at the Hedi Chaker University Hospital in Sfax. A self-questionnaire on SI knowledge was completed by the participants before and after a training cycle. Then, a knowledge score was calculated. A total of 106 HCP participated in the study. The participants were female in 50.9% of cases (n=54). The median professional seniority was 7 years (interquartile range (IQR)= [3-13.25]). Fifty-three participants were physicians (50%). Twenty-five health workers received training on septic isolation (23.6%). An isolation room was available in 55 cases (51.9%). The different types of isolation report were available according to the statements of 30 HCP (28.3%). Personal protective equipment was available in the medical departments in 60 cases (56.6%). The declaration of healthcare-associated infections was made in 38 cases (35.8%). According to the sections, 61 HCP thought that sterile gloves should not be worn in the event of contact with an infected patient (57.5%) and 35 HCP stated that a single room was not obligatory in the event of illness transmitted by contact (33%). The median knowledge score on the SI significantly improved after the training (60/100 (IIQ= [53.3-73.3]), versus 66.6/100 (IIQ= [46.6 -60 ]), p=10-3). This improvement was significantly clearer in men compared to women (7.6 (IIQ=[2.3-10.5]) versus 6.6 (IIQ=[0-13.3]), p=10- 3) and clearer among the paramedical staff compared to the medical staff (6.5 (IIQ=[3.5 – 7.8]) versus 4.4 (IIQ=[3.7- 5.9]), p =0.023). This study suggests a significant improvement in HCP knowledge through training. It is part of a 219 VI.

ABSTRACT This research investigated the therapeutic potential of Sareehn (Albizia lebbeck) seed extract in alleviating graphene nanosheets (GNS) toxicity in Cirrhinus mrigala and addressed concerns about GNS effects on aquatic organisms. For experimental purposes, fish were collected and kept in the lab with all standard aquatic parameters maintained. During Phase I of the experiment, mortality rates were observed after oral GNS doses ranging from 0, 250, 500, 750, 1000, 1250, and 1500 mg/L, monitored at 96-hour intervals, resulting in an LC50 value of 121.37 mg/L. Three fractions of LC50 were made, including Fraction 1 (121.37 mg/L), Fraction 2 (60.58 mg/L), and Fraction 3 (40.45 mg/L). The medium fraction was used in Phase II of the experiment. The experimental groups included the Control (A) group with no exposure to GNSs and plant extract, Test Group B exposed to 60.58 mg/L of GNSs with no extract, Test Group C with 60.58mg/L of GNSs + 25 mg/L extract, Test Group D with 60.58mg/L of GNSs + 50 mg/kg extract, and Test Group E with 60.58 mg/L of GNSs + 75 mg/kg extract, with each group observed for 96 hours. Fish organ histology was assessed to show GNS impact: the liver histopathological changes included Pyknotic nuclei or karyomegaly, Atrophy, Acute Cellular swelling, melanomacrophage centers (MMC), hepatic vacuolation, sinusoid dilation, Hydropic degeneration, Necrosis, Perivascular degeneration were observed. However, Intestinal histology shows changes such as intestinal damage (Id), Collapsed Epithelial layer (CL), intestinal interior architecture damage (Ad), atrophy (A), bigger intercellular gaps, and Degenerated Goblet cells (DG). D: shows bigger intercellular space (IS) and kidney histology shows tubular necrosis (Tn), Severe Congestion (SC), tubular dilatation, Bowman capsule dilution (DBS), Destroyed Intestinal Integrity, Glomerulopathy (G), Hemocytic Infiltration (HI), hematopoietic tissue degradation, Vasodilatio (WL), Constricted NT lumen (CL). The therapeutic effect of Albizia lebbeck was also noted in mitigating GNS toxicity. Highperformance liquid Chromatography (HPLC) analysis identified several bioactive components in Albizia lebbeck, including Ferulic acid, Chlorogenic acid, Gallic acid, P-coumaric acid, Quercetin, Caffeic acid, Sinapic acid, Kaempferol, oxalic acid, malic acid, Citric acid, Fumaric acid, Succinic acid, with Methylmalonic acid being the most abundant. The findings suggest that Albizia lebbeck seed extract offers protection against GNS toxicity in Cirrhinus mrigala, providing a potential solution for mitigating GNS-related environmental concerns.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal RESEARCH ON FACTORS AFFECTING THE DEVELOPMENT DIRECTION OF INDEPENDENT CLINICAL LABORATORIES IN CHINA IN THE POST EPIDEMIC ERA MENGXIANGJI * Faculty of Business, Hospitality, Accounting and Finance (FBHAF) MAHSA University, Malaysia Email: mxji@163.com Associate Professor Dr. RASHEEDUL HAQUE (ORCID:0000-0001-8170-5413) Faculty of Business, Hospitality, Accounting and Finance (FBHAF) MAHSA University, Malaysia Email: rasheedul@mahsa.edu.my ABSTRACT An independent clinical laboratory (or independent medical testing laboratory) refers to a medical institution with independent legal person qualifications that conducts medical testing on specimens from the human body for the purpose of providing relevant information for the diagnosis, management, prevention and treatment of human diseases, or health assessment (Humphries et al., 2023). Independent clinical laboratories started late in China, but during the new coronavirus pneumonia epidemic, independent clinical laboratories grew rapidly, filling the service gaps of public healthcare institutions with socialized professional strength (Reportlinker, 2019). China's independent clinical laboratories played an important role in early diagnosis, early isolation, early treatment and preventing the spread of the epidemic, and made significant contributions to the national epidemic prevention and control efforts (Chen et al., 2021). However, after entering the post-epidemic era, the amount of testing required by the epidemic has dropped significantly, and the development direction of a large number of independent clinical laboratories set up during the epidemic due to the need for prevention and control is faced with the decision of life and death (Rodgers et al., 2021). At the same time, due to reasons such as the speed of development and regional differences, there are great differences in the business model and profit level of individual laboratories (Andreini, Bettinelli, Foss, & Mismetti, 2021). During the large-scale development of independent clinical laboratories, general testing programs have reached the break-even point, despite the huge stock market of general testing programs in healthcare institutions and the large number of routine samples (Kaur et al., 2022). The low profitability of such testing programs, homogenized competition, and low prices for outsourced services have become common in the industry with weak profitability (Azhari et al., 2022). Despite better profit margins for specialized testing programs, such programs require more physical space, equipment and facilities in the laboratory and the level of testing personnel (Pathmanathan et al., 2022). There are still some problems in the development of independent clinical laboratories, such as "price wars" and other vicious competition, costs and other reasons, which increase the risk of declining service quality, and the lack of appropriate standards for long-distance specimen transportation, which expose clinical laboratories to new business risks (Ahmed et al., 2022). These three directions involve corporate profitability, new profit growth points, cost control, etc. And can play a vital role in the survival and development of independent clinical laboratories (Khalil et al., 2023). Therefore, it is very necessary to conduct comprehensive research on these important aspects of independent clinical laboratories (Rahim et al., 2023). In this paper, by reviewing the 228 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal academic information and research results of independent clinical laboratories at home and abroad, and by combining the perspectives of medical, sociological, and managerial disciplines, we adopt the literature research method, analytical modeling, and case study as the research methodology of this paper (Aveyard & Bradbury-Jones, 2019). Combined with the analysis of the development status and business models of representative medical laboratories at home and abroad, and the current situation of the institutional reform of domestic medical institutions under the epidemic, the influential factors affecting the development direction of independent clinical laboratories (ICLs) have been deeply excavated, and a suggested operation plan has been put forward (Ramdani, Binsaif, & Boukrami, 2019). This study contributes to advancing the knowledge and practice of ICL business model optimization and provides valuable insights for policy makers, ICL leaders, and stakeholders in the greater healthcare industry (Fei et al., 2024; Osman et al., 2024). It also contributes to the development of faster clinical diagnostics, precision and personalized medicine, and ultimately, to improving the prognosis of patients (Wang & Shi, 2021).

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal THE EXPERIENCE OF RAISING CHILDREN AS A SINGLE MOTHER: THE GOAT AND HER THREE CHILDREN FABLE Rabia Reyhan KISA (ORCID: 0009-0005-2381-743X) Marmara University, Faculty of Political Science, Department of Political Science and Public Administration (French), Istanbul-Türkiye Email: rreyhancakir@.gmail.com ABSTRACT This study analyses the gender representation in Victor Canache's horror movie, The Goat and Her Three Kids, which is based on the fable of Canache's film is based on Ion Creangă's fable of the same name. The fable discusses the importance of obedience in child education and the consequences of its absence. Ion Creangă, a Moldovan/Romanian writer, was a teacher who wrote this fable. The story has very few characters. The protagonist is the mother goat and her 3 little boys. The antagonist is the old wolf, the godfather of the kids. The only female character in the story is the mother who is trying to raise her 3 baby boys in her house in a desolate and secluded land. She is a widow and a lonely woman. While raising her children, she tries to protect them from outside dangers. The adult male character, the wolf, is the danger from outside. The godfather is traditionally supposed to protect the children, but the story shows the opposite. Canache's work is a direct adaptation of this fable. The goats and the wolf are replaced by humans. The story, which mainly deals with the importance of parental obedience with its frightening consequences, also presents a sharp gender representation. Keywords: Gender, Romanian Horror, Victor Canache, Ion Creangă 230 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal PLANTS AND HERBAL PRODUCTS FREQUENTLY USED IN THE TREATMENT OF RHEUMATIC DISEASES ABSTRACT Rheumatism is one of the chronic diseases that does not have a full curative treatment. Patients turn to alternative treatment methods due to reasons such as obvious and worsening symptoms such as pain, stiffness, and loss of function, the difficulty of making a definitive diagnosis, and the inadequacy of drug treatment. In addition to many alternative treatment methods such as hot and cold applications, acupuncture and spa, the most preferred method in Turkey is treatment with plants and herbal products. Many products for herbal treatment in this field are available on the market. In this study, the most commonly used products, the plants included in the products, and the effectiveness of these plants in the treatment of rheumatism were scientifically examined. Since the beginning of human life, plant species have been an important source of medicine. Various plants have been identified as a source for the novel development of therapeutic drugs. The scope of herbal medicines has increased significantly in recent years. Additionally, public interest and acceptance of medicinal plants has increased significantly in both developing and developed countries. According to the World Health Organization, approximately 80% of the world's population uses traditional medicines containing compounds derived from medicinal plant species for their basic health needs. Therefore, it is necessary to deepen research on these plants to gain better knowledge about their properties, safety and effectiveness. Medical treatment, physical therapy methods, exercise, etc. are used in the treatment of rheumatism. In addition to methods, herbal products can also be used as supportive treatment in appropriate doses and frequencies according to the type of rheumatism. In this study, we tried to mention plants commonly used in rheumatism. When these plants are examined, it is seen that species such as Capsicum annuum, Harpagophytum procumbens, Rosa canina, Nigella sativa, Equisetum arvense, Sesamum indicum, Silybum marianum, Brassica oleracea, Hypericum perforatum, Rosmarinus officinalis are used. More experimental and clinical research has been conducted on these plants. 43 plants were mentioned in this study. The plants examined generally belong to the Asteraceae family. These plants have often been used to relieve rheumatic, chronic inflammatory and musculoskeletal diseases. Different parts of plants are used for therapeutic purposes; Rhizomes, roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits, etc. Keywords: Rheumatism, treatment of rheumatism, herbal product, treatment with plants. 232 VI.

Köprüler uzun açıklıkları birbirlerine bağladığından ve ulaşımı kolaylaştırdıklarından uzun yıllar maruz kaldıkları dış etkenlere karşı dayanmaları amaçlanır. Deprem dayanımları açısından incelendiklerinde köprülerin deprem analizleri doğrudan bina deprem analizleri gibi yapılmaz. Köprüler binaların aksine yatay doğrultuda uzun açıklıklara sahip olacak şekilde tasarlanır. Köprülerin uzun açıklıklara sahip olması durumunda, ayaklarının bulunduğu zemin koşullarında değişkenlik gözükebilir. Yerel zemin koşulunun değişmesi, ayaklara gelen deprem ivmesinin de farklılaşacağı anlamına gelir. Yerel zemin koşulunun değişmesine bağlı olarak köprü ayaklarında oluşan deprem ivmelerinin farklı büyüklüklere sahip olmasına "değişken zemin etkisi" denir. Bu etkinin olduğu köprüler yapı analiz programlarında doğrudan mod birleştirme yöntemiyle çözülemezler ve daha detaylı analiz aşamları gerektirir. Analiz yöntemi olarak 3 farklı çözüm yöntemi kullanılabilir. İlk yöntemde değişken zemin etkisi göz önünde bulundurulmaz. Köprü boyunca bulunan yerel zemin sınıflarından en zayıf olanı seçilir ve üniform deprem yer hareketi kabulü yapılır. İkinci yöntemde zaman tanım alanında deplasman analizi yapılır. Belirli bir sayıda deprem yer kayıtları seçilir ve bu kayıtların oluşturduğu deplasmanlar köprünün ayaklarına tekil yükler olarak etki ettirilirler. Üçüncü yöntem olarak da, değişken zemin etkisi göz önünde bulundurularak mod birleştirme yapılır. Bu son yöntemde modal katkı çarpanları bulunurken köprü ayaklarına birim deplasmanlar etki ettirilerek hesap yapılması gerekmektedir. Her bir ayaktaki zemin sınıfı için tasarım tepki spektrumu çıkartılır ve analizde her bir tepki spektrumunun kullanılması gerekir. Dolayısıyla bu işlem doğrudan yapı analiz programlarında yapılmaz. Bu çalışma kapsamında 3 metod da incelenecek ve yapının elastomer mesnetlerinde meydana gelen deformasyonlar ile köprü ayaklarında meydana gelen kesme kuvveti-moment değerleri birbirleriyle karşılaştırılacaktır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal SEISMIC ANALYSIS OF BRIDGES WITH PIERS ON DIFFERENT LOCAL SOIL CLASSES ABSTRACT Bridges are structures that have been used throughout history and are typically used to cross lakes, valleys, or other obstacles. Bridges are designed to withstand external factors for many years as they connect long spans and facilitate transportation. When examined in terms of earthquake resistance, bridges are not analyzed directly like buildings. Unlike buildings, bridges are designed to have long spans horizontally. In cases where bridges have long spans, variability may appear in the ground conditions where the piers are located. The change in local ground conditions means that the earthquake accelerations at the piers will also vary. The varying earthquake accelerations at the bridge piers due to the change in local ground conditions are referred to as "variable ground effect". Three different solution methods can be used as analysis methods. In the first method, the variable ground effect is not considered. The weakest local ground class along the bridge is selected, and uniform earthquake ground motion is assumed. In the second method, displacement time history analysis is performed. A certain number of earthquake ground records are selected, and the displacements generated by these records are applied as unit loads on the bridge piers. As the third method, modal superposition is performed considering the variable ground effect. In this method, modal participation factors are found, and calculations must be made by applying unit displacements to the bridge piers. Design response spectra are produced for each soil class at each pier, and each response spectrum must be used in the analysis. Therefore, this process can not directly performed in structural analysis programs. Within the scope of this study, three methods will be examined, and the deformations occurring at the elastomeric bearings of the structure and the shear forcemoment values occurring at the bridge supports will be compared.

Initially, we considered a traditional Perturb and Observe (P&O) algorithm. Secondly, we integrated a Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) that utilizes fuzzy logic principles to enhance the traditional P&O algorithm. Both algorithms were integrated into a boost converter. The main aim of this paper is to study if an artificial intelligence (AI) based maximum power point tracking (MPPT) method can outperform a traditional MPPT method in terms of efficiency, stability, and adaptability under varying environmental conditions such as solar irradiation and temperature and also to analyze their behaviour in steady state conditions. The proposed FLC in this study demonstrated superior performance compared to the controller using the traditional P&O algorithm. This superiority can be attributed to the FLC adaptive step size, which enables it to quickly adapt the photovoltaic system to changing environmental conditions. As a result, the FLC can more rapidly identify the correct maximum power point (MPP) and achieve lower oscillations in steady state conditions. The simulations in this study were performed using MATLAB/Simulink.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal SYNTHESIS AND EVALUATION OF SILVER NANOPARTICLES FROM ETHANOLIC LEAF EXTRACT OF TRIDAX PROCUMBENS.L Prof. Dr. R. Saravanan Faculty of Pharmacy, Bharath Institute of Higher Education and Research, Chennai, India 600 073. ABSTRACT In recent science Nanotechnology is a burning field for the researchers. Nanotechnology deals with the Nanoparticles having a size of 1-100 nm in one dimension used significantly concerning medical chemistry, atomic physics, and all other known fields. Silver nanoparticles were synthesized using aqueous extract of Tridax procumbens leaves, and silver nitrate. XRD, SEM, FTIR, Optical absorption were measured and analyzed. The synthesized AgNps exhibits lowest energy absorption band at 400 nm. Synthesis of Nanoparticles may involve various routes including physical, chemical and biological approaches. Traditionally these are manufactured by wet chemical methods which require toxic and flammable chemicals. Nanoparticles thus formed are confirmed and characterized by using UV-Visible Spectroscopy, SEM, FTIR, Zeta Analysis, XRD measurements. Further, these green synthesized Nanoparticles showed bactericidal activity against multidrug-resistant human pathogenic bacteria. The AgNps formed were found to have enhanced antimicrobial properties and showed zone of inhibition against isolated bacteria (Escherichia coli) from garden soil sample. In totality, the AgNps prepared are safe to be discharged in the environment and possibly utilized in process of pollution remediation. AgNps may also be efficiently utilized in agricultural research to obtain better health of crop plants as shown by our study.

Jl Bandung Sumedang km 21. Jatinangor. Sumedang. West Java. Indonesia Email: farhan,syk@gmail.com ABSTRACT Very ripening bananas are unsuitable for fresh eating; they are usually thrown away. Even though overripe bananas can still be used and consumed again if they are processed by drying in the sun to become Sale-Pisang sweetened banana chips, apart from reuse, Sale-Pisang has a high shelf life. It will last even longer and become a delicious and nutritious snack if it is further processed, such as frying it in flour. Over-ripe bananas experience an increase in glucose when dried in the sun, so they taste sweeter than fresh bananas. This research was conducted to provide information on the added value of over-ripe banana waste if it is processed into SalePisang (banana sunlight drying) in Tasikmalaya Regency. This quantitative study uses the Hayami Method Added Value analysis of the wet and dry sale-banana production process (wet sale-bananas fried in flour). This research aims to determine the added value of over-ripe banana waste to produce soggy bananas. This research showed that 3,333 kg of overripe bananas cost IDR 2,000 to 1 kg Sale-Pisang, and the price per kilogram is IDR 60,000. Conversion factor 0.3. The added value ratio is 87.44% for the Ambon (Cavendish) banana type. The output value is 18,000 per kg, and the added value is 15,739.25. The rate benefit level is 82.21%. The margin of benefit is IDR 16,000. This result showed that banana sale products provide very significant benefits. From the added value ratio, it can be seen from these two products that the banana sales business is relatively high because the resulting ratio is more excellent than 50%. Processing over-ripe bananas can create business opportunities, increase income and welfare, and resolve environmental problems by reducing banana waste.

Iron homeostasis is regulated and maintained by iron metabolism. Thus, iron metabolic homeostasis is required for the optimal functioning of fundamental physiological processes. Iron homeostasis in humans is regulated by balancing iron uptake with intracellular utilization and storage. Dietary iron is absorbed by duodenal enterocytes and binds to transferrin in the plasma. Transferrin limits the production of toxic free radicals and is responsible for ferric-ion delivery into cells. The iron homeostasis system maintains transferrin saturation at physiological levels.

Teacher Mammadov Shahmar AJDAR Azerbaijan Medical University, Department of Normal Physiology, Asst.Senior Lecturer ABSTRACT Thymic hyperplasia could be true thymic or lymphoid hyperplasia. It is usually found incidentally or could present with compressive symptoms or systemic symptoms due to autoimmune disease like myasthenia gravis. The diagnosis is made through a chest CT or MRI. Treatment for symptomatic patients is mostly thymectomy. This activity describes pathophysiology, evaluation, and management of thymic hyperplasia and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in the evaluation and treatment of patients with thymic hyperplasia. The production of functional T-cell is choreographed by thymic epithelial cells that guide them in proliferation, maturation, and survival. The thymic epithelial cells are compartmentalized into two main populations medullary thymic epithelial cells and cortical thymic epithelial cells. These populations are further segregated into distinct subpopulations having specific molecular and functional roles. There are two major etiologies of thymic hyperplasia. It could be congenital or acquired. The congenital thymic hyperplasia can be hypo functioning or hyperfunctioning and is found to be the result of neuroendocrine disturbances, usually within the hypothalamic-hypophyseal system. Thymic hyperplasia with hypo functioning thymus would lead to immune deficiency. Hyperfunctioning thymic hyperplasia could lead to autoimmune diseases, most commonly myasthenia gravis, but the relationship has also been found with graves' disease and collagen vascular disorders. Acquired thymic hyperplasia can also result in hypo functioning or hyperfunctioning thymus. Keywords: Thymus gland, Persistent hyperplasia, Physiological changes, Diagnosis 239 VI.

White adipose tissue (WAT) has a crucial role in regulating systemic energy homeostasis. Adipose tissue expands by a combination of an increase in adipocyte size (hypertrophy) and number (hyperplasia). The recruitment and differentiation of adipose precursor cells in the subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), rather than merely inflating the cells, would be protective from the obesity-associated metabolic complications. In metabolically unhealthy obesity, the storage capacity of SAT, the largest WAT depot, is limited, and further caloric overload leads to the fat accumulation in ectopic tissues (e.g., liver, skeletal muscle, and heart) and in the visceral adipose depots, an event commonly defined as lipotoxicity. Excessive ectopic lipid accumulation leads to local inflammation and insulin resistance (IR). Indeed, overnutrition triggers uncontrolled inflammatory responses in WAT, leading to chronic lowgrade inflammation, therefore fostering the progression of IR. Severe obesity is associated with elevated risks of adverse health consequences. The prevalence of obesity is rising worldwide, and if the trend continues, global prevalence will reach 18% in men and 21% in women by 2025 . A positive energy balance between energy intake and energy expenditure results in weight gain and obesity . Many factors, including genetics, epigenetics, and lifestyle factors, have been 240 VI.

To develop them, it is important to add high-quality additives to base oils that can protect transmission systems from wear, increasing their durability. Such additives include compounds containing sulfur, nitrogen, phosphorus and other elements. The authors of this work synthesized 1,3-isopropylxanthate sulfophenol as an extreme pressure additive for transmission oils. The compound was obtained by reacting phenol bissulfonyl chloride with potassium isopropyl xanthate: The reaction was carried out in an aqueous medium or isopropyl alcohol at a temperature of 50600C. The starting compounds for the synthesis of 1,3-isopropylxanthate sulfophenol were obtained by the authors of this work according to the following schemes using a well-known method [1]: 242 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal The structure of the synthesized compound was proven by studying the elemental composition and using IR spectroscopy. Extreme pressure properties were studied on a four-ball friction machine (FFM-1). The evaluation of extreme pressure properties was carried out according to the load wear index (LWI), according to the critical load (CL) and according to the welding load (WL). The studies were carried out in comparison with the structurally similar compound 5-methyl-2-phenylcarbonylmethyl ester of diisopropylxanthogenic acid [2] and the well-known extreme pressure additive ethylene bisisopropyl xanthate (Lz-23k) [3]. As follows from the results of the study, 1,3-bisisopropylxanthate sulfophenol surpasses known compounds in extreme pressure properties. As a result, it can be used as an extreme pressure additive for transmission oils. Keywords: xanthates, extreme pressure properties, transmission oil. 243 VI.

Many of these hormones have to do with how the body responds to stress, and some are vital to existence. Both parts of the adrenal glands the adrenal cortex and the adrenal medulla perform distinct and separate functions. Cortisol is a glucocorticoid hormone produced by the zona fasciculata that plays several important roles in the body. It helps control the body’s use of fats, proteins and carbohydrates; suppresses inflammation; regulates blood pressure; increases blood sugar; and can also decrease bone formation. This hormone also controls the sleep/wake cycle. It is released during times of stress to help your body get an energy boost and better handle an emergency situation. Adrenal glands produce hormones in response to signals from the pituitary gland in the brain, which reacts to signaling from the hypothalamus, also located in the brain. This is referred to as the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis. As an example, for the adrenal gland to produce cortisol, the following occurs: The hypothalamus produces corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) that stimulates the pituitary gland to secrete adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH). ACTH then stimulates the adrenal glands to make and release cortisol hormones into the blood. Normally, both the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland can sense whether the blood has the appropriate amount of cortisol circulating. If there is too much or too little cortisol, these glands respectively change the amount of CRH and ACTH that gets released. This is referred to as a negative feedback loop. Excess cortisol production can occur from nodules in the adrenal gland or excess production of ACTH from a tumor in the pituitary gland or other source.

It regulates the body’s adaptive response to stress. Stress is a huge factor as it can mess up every single hormone. In particular progesterone, one of the most important hormones for fertility and pregnancy, is not only produced by the corpus luteum of the ovary, but is also produced by the adrenal glands. This means that if you are under a lot of stress then your adrenal glands may have shut down your production of progesterone in favour of stress hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline. I really believe this was a huge factor in my fertility journey and is likely to be a major factor with a lot of women in this day and age. When we are under stress our body tends to shut down our reproductive hormones as getting pregnant is not essential for our survival. The stress response serves to prioritise survival over less essential physiological functions, inclusion growth, and reproduction. Keywords: Pregnancy, Adrenal glands, Stress, Pathology 245 VI.

This study aims to explore the ecological and medicinal benefits of dill compared to Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis). By examining the ecological effects of dill in natural habitats, the plant's impact on habitat diversity and ecosystem health In addition, focusing on the medical potential of dill, its pharmacological effects such as antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties were investigated. The possible benefits and therapeutic potential of these effects on human health were evaluated. Compared with Spirulina, the nutritional content and biological properties of dill were analyzed. The use of dill as a potential alternative for human health has been examined, with particular emphasis on its effects on digestive health and metabolic balance. This comprehensive comparative study makes an important contribution to understanding dill's potential for both ecological balance and human health. However, it should be noted that the medicinal use of dill needs further research and clinical studies. In conclusion, this study investigating the potential advantages of Anethum graveolens as an alternative source is an important step to promote and evaluate the versatile use of the plant. Dill presents numerous advantages over spirulina. Primarily, dill is widely accessible and can be easily grown in diverse climates, rendering it more sustainable and attainable for widespread utilization. Additionally, dill boasts abundant essential oils such as carvone and limonene, renowned for their antimicrobial attributes and supportive role in digestive wellness. Moreover, dill is a notable source of vitamin C, pivotal for immune function and collagen synthesis, an attribute absent in spirulina. Furthermore, dill's culinary adaptability facilitates its integration into an extensive array of dishes, enriching both taste and aroma, unlike spirulina, which may be limited in culinary applications due to its pronounced taste and scent. Lastly, dill holds a longstanding tradition as a medicinal herb in various cultures, offering potential therapeutic advantages that extend beyond its nutritional composition. In the comparison between dill and spirulina, it is seen that dill is economically more suitable. In addition, the ecological effects of dill have been determined to be more sustainable and less harmful to nature. Medically, dill's traditional uses and health benefits are similar to spirulina.

Although the different plant seedlings germinated in water are differed in the amount of oxygen absorption, the kinetics were similar and were characterized by a single-phase curve. Oxygen absorption was also studied in plants germinated in different concentration salt solutions. It turned out that during the long-term exposure to salts, the weakening of oxygen absorption by roots occurs already at low concentrations (25 мM), and oxygen absorption decreases more sharply in sulfate salinity than in chloride salinity.The studies revealed that the reducing activity in the roots of wheat sprouts was higher than that of barley sprouts, and with the increase in the salt concentration, the reduction activity decreased sharply. According to the reducing activity and the amount of oxygen absorption, plants can be arranged in the following order: Gobustan > Layagatli > Dayanatli > Garabagh-22.An inverse correlative relationship was determined between salt resistance of plants and respiration intensity and reducing activity.If 247 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal to compare the effect of isocationic salts on respiration intensity and reducing activity, the negative effect of SO4-2 ion was higher than that of Cl-.It was found out that the stability of the studied plant genotypes is in the Garabagh-22 > Dayanatli > Layagatli > Gobustan sequence and Garabagh-22 and Dayanatli barley genotypes can be planted in weak saline soils.Based on the obtained result, the method of determination of the reducing activity of the root system can be recommended to be used as an express biological test to determine the sale tolerance of the plants.

The main task of the immune system is to protect the body from allergens, bacteria and virus attacks. At this time, the immune system kills the mutated cells and protects health. 250 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal The main manifestations of immune activation during COVID-19 are characterized by an increase in the concentration of neutrophils, IL-6 and C-reactive protein in the blood serum, and a decrease in the concentration of lymphocytes. Our goal is to share our achievements by studying the role of immune system biomarkers in Covid-19 infection. According to the extract epicrisis of the medical history we investigated, on 21.05.2020 (MediClub Hospital, M/h No. pc-110457), during the computer tomographic examination of the patient who was admitted to the hospital with the diagnosis "Viral pneumonia of the lungs. Lung respiratory distress syndrome. 80% damage of lung parenchyma, "frosted glass" was found. Looking at the immunological laboratory indicators, it was found that lymphocyte-14%; CRP-461.99 mg/l; IL-6 was 539.0 pg/ml. Concentration of immune system biomarkers in 2 stages: Stage I - when entering the Intensive Care Department; Stage II, was studied on the 5th-7th days of the disease.C-reactive protein, an "acute phase" protein that increases to high concentrations and stimulates the body's immune responses, activates defence systems, has been studied in both phases. Although CRP was 461.99 mg/l in stage I, this indicator decreased sharply by 4.85 times (p<0.01) in stage II but remained 19.1 times higher than the norm. The main protective biomarker of the immune system is lymphocytes, some of which are involved in the synthesis of antibodies, others fight against infection, and some prevent its spread. The last moment enables the formation of an immune response. The concentration of lymphocytes was 11.2±0.5% in stage I, and in stage II this indicator increased 1.64 times (p<0.01) and reached the lower limit of the norm and is statistically honest. Assessment of cytokine production in COVID-19 disease, particularly interleukin-6 concentrations as a pro-inflammatory cytokine that enhances the immune response, has also been studied. In stage I, IL-6 was high, 4.28 times (p<0.01) more than the control group. In the II stage, this indicator decreased by 7.51 times (p<0.001) to the level of the control group, the normal range. In the II group, it was very high in the I stage, it was 12.95 times more than the control group, and 3.03 times more than the I group (p<0.01). Although it was 2.8 times more compared to the control group in the II stages, it decreased by 4.63 times (p<0.05) compared to the I stage, but it was 4.91 times more (p<0.001) compared to the I group and it is statistically honest.Even if a person's body overcomes the coronavirus disease, the body is still highly susceptible to various types of infections. This is associated with the weakening of the immune system in the human body. 83% of the patients diagnosed with coronavirus were found to have lymphopenia in the literature we researched. Assessment of cytokine production in COVID-19, particularly interleukin 6 as a pro-inflammatory cytokine that enhances the immune response, was studied, with IL-6 at 10 pg/ml as the norm. In stage I, IL-6 was high - 539 pg/ml, 54 times higher than normal. In stage II, Actemra 8 mg/kg was infused iv to patients and this indicator decreased by 4.63 times (p<0.05); however, it remained 12 times more than the norm (p<0.001) and is statistically honest.According to our results, it is appropriate to use high doses of immunoglobulins to limit the effect of antibodies, determining the severity of the disease based on the concentration of interleukin-6 in the blood of COVID-19 patients. Thus, Anakinra, which has an immunosuppressive activity that blocks interleukin-1 receptors, has a high effect during the use of IVIG drugs during Postcovid syndrome. IL-6 concentration decreased dynamically. Thus, when we compare our results with the research conducted by world scientists, it is known that IL-6 concentration of all immune system biomarkers increased dramatically during COVID-19 disease and lymphopenia was detected. Based on the concentration of these markers, certain considerations can be made about the severity of the disease, the principles of treatment, and the percentage of lethality.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal THE PROBLEM OF COMPETITION FOR CLEAN AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS AND SOLUTION FOR AN INTEGRATED VALUE-ADDED MODEL FOR CLEAN AGRICULTURE IN KHANH HOA, VIETNAM Le Thi Hong NHUNG Nha Trang University, Vietnam Email:nhunglth@ntu.edu.vn ABSTRACT Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries sector accounts for almost 12% of the Vietnamese economic structure in 2023 (General Statistics Office of Vietnam, 2023). The agricultural sector of Khanh Hoa in particular and Vietnam in general is facing several challenges due to the pollution of the production environment as well as serious deterioration of farmers' health due to the heavy use of chemical pesticides, herbicides and other toxicity in the farming process (World Bank, 2023). The number of clean, sustainable agro production farms is still very low. Surprisingly, despite the fact that organic produces have superior safety and quality, there is a heartbreaking reality: the prices of these clean agricultural products in Vietnam in general and Khanh Hoa in particular are still very cheap, compared to those made by counterparts in Thailand, China, etc. This has led to decreasing income and unstable livelihood of clean production farmers (Khanh Hoa Farmers’ Association, 2023).Along with that worsening production situation, Vietnamese consumers’ confidence has also seriously declined as agro produces are chemically grown everywhere, causing increasing health risks from alarming food safety issues (Vietnam’s Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, 2023). This article analyzes the root causes of this whole scenario and proposes solutions by using a clean agriculture model that incorporates service agriculture thinking to create added value for Vietnamese agricultural products, and regain the trust from Vietnamese consumers, thereby promoting clean agro products nationwide and proceeding to exportation.

Therefore, a trend in recent years is that many university graduates are unemployed, while businesses are always having headaches finding quality labor. In addition, society's production and business activities are creating countless serious consequences for the environment, ecosystem and sustainable development of society. This article proposes an experiential education model through projects that create social impact at the local level to solve the above problems, contributing to creating a generation of graduates who actually do what they say, do it effectively and sustainably.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INSIGHTS INTO THE CORROSION INHIBITION PERFORMANCE OF THREE NATURAL HETEROCYCLIC DIAZEPINES FOR CARBON STEEL EL IN 1M HCL MEDIUM Prof. Dr. Laila AFIA* (ORCID:0009-0003-6324-8396) Ibnou Zohr University, Faculty of Sciences, Department of chemisrty, Laboratory of Materials and Environment (LME) Email:l.afia@uiz.ac.ma Prof. Dr. Rachid SALGHI (ORCID:0000-0003-4845-8849) Ibnou Zohr University, National School of Applied Sciences, Team of applied chemistry and Environment Agadir-Morocco ABSTRACT Despite of its susceptibility to corrosion, carbon steel (CS) is widely used in industry and machinery. It has excellent mechanical properties as well as good physical and chemical characteristics. During the process of steel manufacturing, steel may get into contact with an aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid, causing it to corrode. One effective process for protecting steel from corrosion with hydrochloric acid is by using organic compounds as inhibitors. Large numbers of organic compounds were studied and are being studied to investigate here corrosion inhibition potential. Generally, the inhibitor which possesses many heteroatoms, such as O, S and N atoms, always exhibits better inhibition performance than those that possesses individual O, S or N atoms. But, most of them are highly toxic to human beings and has the potential to degrade the environment. The known hazardous effects of most synthetic organic inhibitors and restrictive environmental regulations have compelled and motivated researchers to focus on the need to develop cheap, non-toxic and environmentally benign natural products as corrosion inhibitors.Three new heterocyclic diazepines (CC–diCl, CC–Cl and CC–F) were synthesized for the first time from the natural product curcumin and evaluated as non-toxic corrosion inhibitors for carbon steel (CS) in 1 M HCl. Polarization curves showed that the three compounds behave as mixed-type inhibitors. EIS spectra exhibit one capacitive loop and confirm the inhibitive ability. A complete thermodynamic study was also performed on the diazepine with the highest efficiency CC–diCl to gain a better understanding of the inhibition process. The adsorption of the diazepines onto CS surface obeyed a Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Keywords: Corrosion, Steel, Inhibitors, Diazepines, Langmuir. 254 VI.

The inorganic acids are widely used in many processes such as pickling, cleaning and descaling; therefore corrosion prevention has critical importance. The use of inhibitors is the most practical methods of protection against corrosion, especially in acidic solutions. Large numbers of organic compounds were studied and are being studied to investigate here corrosion inhibition potential. Generally, the inhibitor which possesses many heteroatoms, such as O, S and N atoms, always exhibits better inhibition performance than those that possesses individual O, S or N atoms. Consequently, the 2-hydroxy-1-(2-hydroxy-4sulfo-1-naphthylazo)-3-naphthoic acid (HHSNNA) is an ordinary organic compound containing O, S and N atoms. In addition it possesses four aromatic rings and multiple bonds, which probably meet certain desirable characteristics of corrosion inhibitors.The corrosion inhibition properties of HHSNNA for C38 steel in HCl 1 M solution were analyzed by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization. Polarization curves showed that the HHSNNA behave as mixed-type inhibitors. EIS spectra exhibit one capacitive loop and confirm the inhibitive ability. The effect of concentration for the inhibitor on the corrosion behavior of carbon steel in 1M HCl was also studied and a Langmuir adsorption isotherm was found. It was found that the presence of HHSNNA hugely decreases the corrosion rate, while its inhibition efficiency (E%) increases with concentration to attain 93.8 % at 10-3 M.

This research explores the challenges, opportunities, and policy implications of sustainable urban development in Pakistani cities, focusing on key themes such as population growth, infrastructure development, socio-economic dynamics, and environmental sustainability.The findings reveal that Pakistani cities face significant challenges related to environmental degradation, inadequate infrastructure, and social inequalities, which hinder the progress of sustainable urban development initiatives. Rapid population growth and urban expansion strain existing infrastructure, leading to traffic congestion, air pollution, and inadequate access to basic services such as housing and utilities. Moreover, socio-economic disparities exacerbate social inequalities, limiting access to education, healthcare, and employment opportunities for marginalized communities.Despite these challenges, the research identifies several opportunities for promoting sustainable urban development in Pakistani cities. Policy interventions, such as integrated urban planning and renewable energy initiatives, can enhance the resilience and sustainability of urban infrastructure. Community engagement and participatory development approaches empower local communities and promote inclusive decision-making processes, ensuring that development initiatives are responsive to their needs and priorities.Drawing lessons from successful case studies in Pakistani cities and international best practices, the research provides valuable insights into effective strategies and approaches for sustainable urban development. It emphasizes the importance of adopting holistic, inclusive, and environmentally sustainable approaches to urban planning and development, prioritizing the well-being of urban residents and the long-term sustainability of Pakistani cities.In conclusion, this research contributes to the growing body of knowledge on sustainable urban development and provides practical recommendations for policymakers, urban planners, and stakeholders to promote sustainability in Pakistani cities. By addressing the challenges, leveraging opportunities, and integrating sustainability principles into practice, Pakistani cities can strive towards achieving resilient, inclusive, and sustainable urban futures for all residents.

ABSTRACT Plastic waste has emerged as a serious environmental problem, prompting the creation of novel technologies for its effective management and transformation into valuable resources. Using microwave pyrolysis, this work investigated the in situ catalytic conversion of mixed-density plastics into combustible fuel, providing a feasible method for valuing plastic waste and generating energy. Different mixed-density plastics werepyrolyzed with different catalysts, temperatures, and residence times to yield liquid fuel, syngas, and structured carbon residue.The effect of inputs on the product type, yield and compositions was statistically evaluated using ANOVA, which showed an F value of 4.108 and a p-value of 0.098 (>1.00). FTIR and GC-MS revealed that the oil product consisted of C13+ fractions in the form of alkanes, alkenes, and aromatics. The microscopic analysis of the residue confirmed the formation of carbon nanotubes along with other amorphous products. The presence of impurities in the solid product was further analyzed through XRD analysis. The pyrolytic liquid fuel revealed the presence of conjugated aromatic structure and carbonyl group in their concentration. In the gaseous product, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and hydrocarbons up to C4 such as methane, ethane, ethene, propane, propene, butane, and butene were the most common hydrocarbon gases observed. This research demonstrated that the conversion of mixed-density plastics using sodium zeolite, aluminum oxide, and nickel oxide catalysts yields 84% valuable products confirming wasted plastics as a lucrative energy feedstock for the production of hydrogen and high-value carbon compounds.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal IMMUNOTHERAPY FOR CANCER USING CHIMERIC ANTIGEN RECEPTORS (CARS) Soham BINDU Department of Biotechnology SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Kattankulathur, Tamil NAdu 603203 Email:sohambindu23@gmail.com Koustav SARKAR (ORCID:0000-0002-0696-6688) Department of Biotechnology SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Kattankulathur, Tamil NAdu 603203 Email:koustavsarkar@gmail.com ABSTRACT Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) are designed receptors that target cancer cells by combining an immune cell with a novel specialization. These immune cells could be either natural killer (NK) cells or T lymphocytes. Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) have proven to be an effective way to amplify and reroute the natural characteristics of both CD8+ and CD4+ T lymphocyte subsets, based on the efficacy of targeting CD19 in B cell malignancies. Dual-signalling CARs allow for the quick production of tumor-specific drugs for each individual cancer patient by reprogramming T cells' effector, metabolic, and survival capabilities in addition to redirecting and activating them. Cell-based therapy has undergone a significant change as a result of this strategy. Rather than relying on the discovery and growth of uncommon naturally occurring T cells with therapeutic potential, it now produces optimal T cell products through genetic engineering. An important part of the immune system, NK cells are essential for innate immunity. For CAR engineering, NK cells provide an alternative to T-cells. NK-cells have the potential to be a source of allogeneic "off-the-shelf" cellular therapy because they do not induce GVHD or other alloimmune or autoimmune toxicities. They can mediate significant anti-tumor effects without causing potentially fatal alloreactivity like GVHD. Researchers are currently investigating the use of CAR-engineered NK cells for the treatment of various haematological and non-haematological malignancies due to the several distinct benefits of NK cells. NK-cells, on the other hand, are only authorized for preclinical studies, in contrast to CAR-Tcells. Keywords: Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs), Cancer, Immunotherapy, Natural killer (NK) cells, T lymphocytes 263 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal IMPACT OF THE DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION IN MEDICAL LABORATORIES MSc. Bertina HOXHA LAMI Sports University of Tirana MSc. Denada RADA (AHMETI) Logos University College ABSTRACT Medical laboratories are transformed by digital revolution as the others sectors of science and business. This article shows the advantages, challenges, and opportunities presented by the digital revolution as they relate to medical laboratories. In laboratory medicine, artificial intelligence is being used to improve and optimize diagnostic processes, support clinical judgment, and boost accuracy and efficacy. Automated algorithms examine extensive datasets comprising patient information, test results, clinical outcomes, and result logs to pinpoint risk factors, forecast the progression of a disease, and inform personalized therapy choices. The aim of this study is to look at how medical laboratories are affected by the digital transformation. For this literature review we have searched databases including PubMed, Research Gate, Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar. We collected data from digital transformation in medical laboratories. Automated algorithms examine extensive datasets comprising patient information, test results, clinical outcomes, and result logs to pinpoint risk factors, forecast the progression of a disease, and inform personalized therapy choices. The paper examines the effects of digital transformation on medical laboratories by an extensive analysis of the literature, case studies, and expert perspectives. Automation algorithms to improve the efficiency and accuracy of diagnosis analyze large datasets, such as patient information and test results. Digital systems must have compliance mechanisms in place since medical laboratories are subject to strict rules on the usage and storage of patient data. Digital platforms offer realtime analytics that facilitate ongoing quality improvement programs, stimulating creativity, and streamlining laboratory procedures. Medical laboratories have been profoundly impacted by the digital revolution, which has brought forth a number of benefits, difficulties, and opportunities. In laboratory medicine, artificial intelligence (AI) has become a potent instrument that can help with diagnosis procedures, support for clinical judgment, and general accuracy and efficacy. AI systems use large-scale datasets, including test results, clinical outcomes, and patient data, to identify risk factors, forecast the course of a disease, and guide individualized therapy choices. Furthermore, a large infrastructure investment and continual training for laboratory personnel are necessary due to the complexity of deploying and maintaining digital systems. The digital revolution has created opportunities for increased production and efficiency through the automation of repetitive operations, better patient outcomes through diagnosis that is more precise and individualized treatment regimens, and the possibility of cost reductions in the delivery of healthcare. The results indicate that the digital transformation has led to numerous benefits in medical laboratories, including improved efficiency, accuracy, and accessibility of diagnostic services. With the aid of extensive data sets that include clinical outcomes, patient records, and laboratory results, it is able to predict patient trajectories and provide tailored treatment plans. Ultimately, the study emphasizes the potential benefits of digital transformation, including improved teamwork, customized healthcare, and anticipatory diagnosis. While it offers unprecedented potential to revolutionize healthcare delivery and improve patient outcomes, careful consideration must be given to the integration 271 VI.

ABSTRACT Climate change can be referred as long-term changes in temperature and weather. These fluctuations may be caused by significant volcanic eruptions or variations in the sun's activity. However, human activity has been the primary cause of climate change since the 1800s, mostly as a result of the combustion of fossil fuels like coal, oil, and gas. Most discussions about climate change focus on the dangers it poses to people and the planet, rather on the benefits it could bring to the economy. Proactive methods to mitigate and adapt to climate change, according to this study, can lead to economic development through encouraging innovation, producing new jobs, and opening up new markets. A fundamental component of this strategy is shifting to renewable energy sources like wind and solar power, which may significantly cut down on emissions of greenhouse gases while simultaneously fostering innovation and job growth in the rapidly expanding green economy. To further demonstrate the economic benefits of climate action, investments in green infrastructure and sustainable urban development improve energy efficiency, resilience, and quality of life. This, in turn, attracts more investment and reduces costs associated with climate-related disasters. Additional economic benefits arise from the optimization of resource usage and the generation of new business models brought about by the transition to a circular economy, which prioritizes waste reduction, recycling, and product lifespan. Importantly, this shift has the potential to bring about substantial societal advantages, such as better public health due to less air pollution, which can lead to lower healthcare expenses and higher productivity. The economic benefits from these programs can be more equitably distributed, helping disadvantaged populations, if climate policy takes an inclusive stance. In light of this, the ABSTRACT maintains that combating climate change is not just a moral but also a financial necessity for a more just and sustainable future. Keywords: Climate Change, Economic Development, Social Advantages. 273 VI.

A meticulous examination of the stability of the ferromagnetic state in ZnTe-based DMSs is conducted, accompanied by a proposed materials design strategy for achieving ferromagnetic DMSs. The investigation reveals that V- and Cr-doped systems exhibit half-metallic ferromagnetism, while Mn-doped systems display a spin-glass state. Furthermore, the inquiry into carrier-induced ferromagnetism in ZnTe-based DMSs establishes that their magnetic states can be manipulated by adjusting the carrier density. The analysis of the calculated density of states contributes to a discussion on the mechanism responsible for stabilizing the ferromagnetic state in DMSs. Notably, these findings align with the anticipated characteristics crucial for the advancement of spintronics.

The objective of this study is the preparation of activated carbons from jujube kernels in order to remove textile dyes by adsorption in aqueous media. In the laboratory, chemical activation was carried out using phosphoric acid as an impregnating agent followed by a carbonization step. The choice of chemical activation makes it possible to achieve good quality coals with a very large specific surface area. To arrive at our results, several adsorption tests of two dyes (methylene blue and orange methyl) were carried out taking into consideration the influence of some operating parameters. The results showed that under appropriate conditions, the reduction rate is greater than 95% for each of the two dyes. The kinetics modelling follows the pseudo-second-order model and the Langmuir model correctly describes adsorption isotherms. The activated carbons obtained have interesting properties in terms of adsorption in the liquid phase that will allow a new valorization of jujube kernels.

In this step the employee is given the activities he/she needs to perform and is told about his/her duties. Again, according to (Ayra, & Kosterelioglu, 2015), it is a period of supervised work, where you'll have the opportunity to experience working in a specific role with a company. Teachers do well in the right placement. School placements are an integral element in teacher education and commonly, both students and teachers consider placements a critical aspect of initial teacher education. Within this context, the contemporary nature of placements and their success in meeting professional development needs, was investigated. The findings of this research indicate that students and teachers share many views and consequently several key experiences and opportunities emerge. Different priorities are, however, also highlighted. Overall perceptions suggest that school placements must be orientated towards a social constructivist paradigm. Given that they are a significant component of initial teacher education, it is imperative that the purpose and benefit of placements is clearly understood and articulated and that the characteristics and elements of successful placements are known and considered. During the last fifty years, several paradigms for teacher education have been developed and promoted. These can be viewed independently of one another, but there are points of contact and overlap. In practice no one paradigm addresses all aspects of teacher education.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal CULTURAL JOURNEY IN THE KITCHEN: ETHIOPIAN CULINARY CULTURE ABSTRACT The food culture of a region is shaped by factors such as the geographical characteristics of the region, climatic conditions, agricultural products grown and food cultures of different regions. Food cultures undergo changes due to reasons such as migrations, communication and interaction with other cuisines in the historical process. Today, human mobility due to wars, disasters and economic reasons in the world has introduced people to different cultures and food cultures. Ethiopian cuisine has also gained a rich variety of products as a result of various cultural interactions over time. However, due to insufficient promotion of local flavors, these local products may be forgotten over time and face the risk of being lost. In this direction, the aim of the study is to obtain information about Ethiopian culinary culture, food and special cooking methods, the tools and utensils they use, food and beverage rituals, and the way their food and beverages are served and to reflect the Ethiopian culinary culture in detail. The qualitative research method was adopted and semi-structured interview technique was used in the study. The data obtained by snowball sampling method were analyzed by descriptive analysis method. The most important finding obtained as a result of the research is that Ethiopian culinary culture is not sufficiently promoted. However, most of the dishes consumed in Europe and America are thought to originate from Ethiopia. Among the other results of the study is that in order to preserve the Ethiopian culinary culture, it should be transferred to future generations in the right way. It is thought that this study will contribute to the promotion of Ethiopian culinary culture. Keywords: Culinary Culture, East African Culinary Culture, Ethiopian Cuisine 294 VI.

A Department of Agricultural Economics and Extension, Faculty of Agriculture, Federal University, Lafia, Nasarawa State, Nigeria. ABSTRACT This study examined the effects of interest rate on credit accessed by maize farmers in Kuje Area Council of Abuja, Nigeria. Two-stage procedure was used to select 84 respondents into maize farming in the study area. Primary data were collected using structured questionnaire complemented with an interview schedule. Data collected were analyzed with descriptive statistics (frequency count, percentages and mean) and inferential statistics (Cobb-Douglas regression). Findings from the study showed that most (72.6%) of the respondents were male and the predominant age bracket was 31– 40 years with a mean of 39 years. This implies that the maize farmers were young which could influence their desire to access loan credit for farming. Also, most (71.4%) of the respondents were married with a mean household size of 8 people. The respondents were experienced farmers with a mean farming experience of 9 years, but has a mean farm size of about one hectare representing small farm holdings. Only few (28.6%) of the respondents had contact with extension agents, while most (65.5%) of them were member of cooperative society. In terms of access to credit, majority (96.4%) of the respondents had access to credit. Sources of credit and mean volume of credit accessed as indicated by the respondents was from microfinance banks (30.9%; ₦266,538) with an interest rate of 7.32%, family and friend (30.9%; ₦266,538) with an interest rate of 3.97% and money lenders (28.6%; ₦266,538) with an interest rate of 11.96% among others. The mean volume of credit obtained by the respondents was ₦298,095. Meanwhile, variables such as household size (0.1612; p<0.10), farm size (0.1785; p<0.01), farm income (0.4705; p<0.01), credit awareness (0.2164; p<0.01) and collateral provision (0.0474; p<0.10) had positive and significant effects on the volume of credit accessed by the respondents. The interest rate (-0.1196; p<0.05) had negative and significant effects on the volume of credit accessed by the respondents. This shows that as the interest rate increases, the volume of credit accessed will decreases. The study recommends that financial institutions especially Bank of Agriculture (BOA) should be adequately funded by the Government to provide credit loans to farmers at low interest rate in order to ensure greater production that will guarantee food security.

Email: azimi.mena@gmail.com ÖZET Kalsiyum, insan vücudunda en çok bulunan mineral olup Plazma kalsiyum homeostazı, iskeletin sürdürülmesi, hormonal sekresyonun düzenlenmesi, sinir impulslarının iletilmesi ve vasküler faaliyetler gibi insan yaşamının sürdürülmesinde hayati bir rol oynar. Prebiyotiklerin kalsiyum emilimine etkisi ise alt bağırsağa ulaşan birkaç tür prebiyotik bitki lifi, kısa zincirli yağ asitlerinin üretimi yoluyla bağırsak mikrobiyomunun değişmesine neden olur. Ortaya çıkan düşük pH ortamının, kalsiyum fosfat oluşumu gibi minerallerin kompleksleşmesini azalttır ve böylece, kemik birikimini veya tutulmasını desteklemek için daha fazla kalsiyum emilecektir. Çalışmalara göre probiyotiklerin kemik koruyucu etkisi barsak geçirgenliğini azaltır, kısa zincirli yağ asitlerini arttırır, barsaktaki inflamasyonu azaltır, kemikteki proinflamatuar sitokinlerin seviyesini düşürür ve osteoklastik kemik rezorpsiyonunu azaltır. Bağırsak mikrobiyotasının kemik sağlığını önemli ölçüde etkiler bağırsak mikrobiyotasi Ca emilimini artırabilir ve kemik hücreleriyle etkileşime girdiğine ve kemik metabolizmasını düzenlediğine bağırsak serotonin üretimini module edebilir.Bağırsak mikrobiyomu, konak genetiği, diyet, yaş, coğrafya, konakçı bağışıklık durumu, seyahet bazı ilaçların kullanımı gibi birçok faktörden etkilenen yaşamın ilk aşamasından itibaren insan vücudu ile etkileşime girer.Lif fermantasyonundan SCFA üretimini arttırdığı bilinen cinslerde bağırsak mikrobiyomunda prebiyotik beslemenin neden olduğu değişiklikler, artan fraksiyonel kalsiyum emilimi (insan ve hayvan modelleri) ve kemik yoğunluğu ve gücü (hayvan modelleri) ile önemli ölçüde ilişkilidir osteoporoz riskini potansiyel olarak azaltmak için anlamlı olduğu kar kabul edilen diyet stratejileridir. Probiyotiklerin mineral emilimi üzerindeki olumlu etkisi, bağırsak mikrobiyomunun bileşimi ve metabolizması ile ilgili olarak umut vericidir. Tahılların fermantasyonu ve mahsullerin ıslatılması ve çimlenmesi, hem insan bağırsağı mikrobiyomunu hem de genel sağlığı sürdürebilen uygun doğal mineral takviyeleri sağlama potansiyeline sahiptir. Fermente gıdalar ve içecekler, çözünür ve biyoyararlı mikro besinlerin seviyelerini artırmada yardımcı olabilir ve "besin takviyesi" görevi görebilir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal THE ROLE OF PROBIOTIC AND PREBIOTICS IN CALCIUM BIOAVAILABILITY ABSTRACT Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the human body and plays a vital role in maintaining human life in such areas as plasma calcium homeostasis, maintenance of the skeleton, regulation of hormonal secretion, transmission of nerve impulses, and vascular activities. The effect of prebiotics on calcium absorption is that several types of prebiotic plant fibers reaching the lower intestine cause changes in the intestinal microbiome through the production of shortchain fatty acids. The resulting low pH environment reduces the complexation of minerals, such as calcium phosphate formation, and thus more calcium will be absorbed to promote bone deposition or retention. According to studies, the bone-protective effect of probiotics reduces intestinal permeability, increases short-chain fatty acids, reduces inflammation in the intestine, reduces the level of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the bone, and reduces osteoclastic bone resorption. The intestinal microbiota significantly affects bone health. The intestinal microbiota can increase Ca absorption and modulate intestinal serotonin production, where it interacts with bone cells and regulates bone metabolism. The intestinal microbiome is affected by many factors, such as host genetics, diet, age, geography, host immune status, travel, and the use of certain medications. interacts with the human body from the first stage of life. Changes caused by prebiotic feeding in the gut microbiome in genera known to increase SCFA production from fiber fermentation are significantly associated with increased fractional calcium absorption (human and animal models) and bone density and strength (animal models) in osteoporosis. Dietary strategies that are considered meaningful can potentially reduce the risk of The positive effect of probiotics on mineral absorption is promising regarding the composition and metabolism of the gut microbiome. Fermentation of grains and soaking and germination of crops have the potential to provide suitable natural mineral supplements that can sustain both the human gut microbiome and overall health. Fermented foods and beverages can help increase levels of soluble and bioavailable micronutrients and act as a “nutritional supplement.” Keywords: probiotics, prebiotics, calcium bioavailability 298 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal KALILA AND DIMNA” AS A SOURCE OF MORAL-DIDACTIC MOTIVES Fidan NASIROVA (ORCID: 0000-0001-8178-7287) Azərbaycan Milli Elmlər Akademiyası, Z.M.Bünyadov adına Şərqşünaslıq İnstitutu, Bakı, Azərbaycan Email: nasirova1975@list.ru ABSTRACT Present research studies the idea-thematic features of the immortal monument of Eastern literature “Kalila and Dimna” and its didactic-educational motives, which were analyzed in the context of moral values. “Kalila and Dimna”, also called “Karataka, Damanaka” in Sanskrit, which is considered as one of the ultimate examples of the semi-didactic-semi-fictional “genre of literature” containing a complex set of humanitarian knowledge of its time, is a written form of stories and narratives that was orally passed down in India from generation to generation. The origin of “Kalila and Dimna” is closely related to “Panchatantra” (five wisdoms, five laws) originating from Indian folklore. However, as it is seen from the name of Panchatantra, there are only five chapters, while “Kalila and Dimna” was extended to 17-18 chapters as a result of the additions by various translators. Compiled by “the head of the Brahmins”, the philosopher Beydaba for the Indian king Dabshalim this work is an invaluable source in terms of reflecting the historical reality, literary norms, and artistic-aesthetic principles of the period in which it was created, in addition to its deep meaning, content, spiritual and humanistic ideas that it preached. The main characters of the work are symbolically two jackals - Kalila, who serves good, and Dimna, who represents evil. The praise of such human qualities as friendship, faithfulness, loyalty, justice, courage and truthfulness, and the exposure of negative aspects such as betrayal, lies, malice constitute the main theme of the work. This work, rich in moral and didactic motives, is read with great interest, “where fun, humor, seriousness, wisdom and philosophy are combined, a vast space for the philosopher, a training ground for the mind, an unforgettable memory for lovers of words, a beautiful book for those who understand the meaning of these all, is a treasure of lessons”. Motifs and plots of “Kalila and Dimna” widely spread in the Muslim East, went through a complex evolutionary path and penetrated the European and world literature. Nowadays it is hard to find a fable, an allegorical story where the parallels with this work are not observed in one form or another. Keywords: “Kalila and Dimna”, “Panchatantra”, ancient Indian legend, literary genre. 299 VI.

Email: ahmetcelik@adiyaman.edu.tr Özet Dünyamızı hızla kirletmemiz nedeniyle meydana gelen atıklar için yeni tavsiyeler ve projelerin ihtiyaç olduğu artık herkes tarafından bilinmektedir. Bu projelerden biri de toprak ve bitki kalite ve randımanının arttırılmasına yönelik solucan dışkılarının yani solucan gübrelerinin kullanılmasıdır. Solucan gübresi; özel diye tabir ettiğimiz solucanların toprakta bulunan veya toprağa sonradan katılan organik maddelerin bitkilere faydalı olabilecek formlara değişimini sağlama işlemi neticesinde oluşan ürünlerdir. Solucanlar; toprak strüktürünü, randımanını ve ürün verimini ciddi şekilde pozitif yönde olacak şekilde tesir edebilmektedirler. Bir başka deyişle söyleyebiliriz ki, vermikompost bitki köklerinin gelişim sağlamasını destekler, kök hastalıklarını önemli bir şekilde sayıca düşürdükleri, çayır ve tarla bitkilerinin randımanını ve bilhassa tahıl kalitesini (örn. protein içeriği) artırdıkları hem laboratuvarda hem de arazide ispatlanmıştır. Sürdürülebilir tarım uygulamaları bilindiği üzere topraklardaki organik maddenin varlığı, kullanımı ve stabilitesi ile doğru orantılı bir şekilde gelişmektedir. Bu sebepten dolayıdır ki toprağın randımanını yükseltmek adına toprağa çeşitli organik gübrelerin ilavesinin sağlanması gerekmektedir. Ancak gübreleme programları genellikle kimyasal gübreler ile yapılmakta ve organik gübreler neredeyse hiç kaile alınmamaktadır. Netice itibariyle, gittikçe çorak hale gelen topraklar geri dönülmez bir kısır döngünün içerisinde canlılıklarını devam ettirmeye çalışmaktadırlar. Öyle ki; Türkiye’de 2022 yılında kullanılan kimyasal gübre miktarı hektar başına 561 kg olarak hesaplanması ve organik gübre ile kıyaslandığında miktar olarak oldukça üst seviyelerde olması, bahsi geçen durumun ne kadar ciddi olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu hususta dikkat edilmeyen bir başka husus ise rakamsal anlamda yüksek olan kimyasal gübrelerin çevre kirliliğine sebep olması ve yüksek azot miktarları nedeniyle yeraltı sularının kirlenmeye başlamasıdır. Buradaki önemli husus, solucanların organik atıkların geri dönüşümü ile ilgili olarak atık yönetiminde yer aldığının bilinmesidir. Tarımsal alanlarda organik madde miktarının yeterli gelmemesi sebebiyle tüketilen kimyasal gübreler toplumun ihtiyacını karşılamakta zorlanmakta dolayısıyla bu gübrelerin bilinçsizce ve hunharca büyük miktarlarda kullanımı yapılan faaliyetin ekonomik olma durumundan çıkmaktadır. Bu bağlamda; organik gübre programlarının düzenlenmesi ihtiyacı doğacağı için söz konusu kimyasalların topraktaki sarfiyat rakamlarını azaltacak ve bitkilerin gübrelerden faydalanma düzeyini yükselterek ekonomik gübreleme yapılmış olacaktır. Hem bitki ile toprak sağlığı hem de halk sağlığı açısından değerlendirildiğinde organik gübreleme çalışmalarının akılcı olduğu sonucuna varılmaktadır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ORGANIC MATTER IN SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE AND TH RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN EARTHWORMS AND SOIL HEALTH Abstract It is now well known that new recommendations and projects are needed for the waste generated by the rapid pollution of our world. One of these projects is the use of vermicomposts, i.e., vermicomposts, to increase soil and plant quality and efficiency. Vermicomposts are the products that are formed as a result of the process of transforming the organic substances in the soil or added to the soil into forms that can be beneficial to plants. Earthworms are able to affect the soil structure, yield and crop yield in a seriously positive way. In other words, vermicompost promotes the growth of plant roots, significantly reduces the number of root diseases, improves the yields of meadow and field crops and especially the quality of cereals (e.g. protein content), which has been proven both in the laboratory and in the field. Sustainable agricultural practices are known to be directly proportional to the presence, utilization and stability of organic matter in soils. For this reason, it is necessary to ensure the addition of various organic fertilizers to the soil in order to increase soil fertility. However, fertilization programs are usually carried out with chemical fertilizers and organic fertilizers are almost ignored. As a result, increasingly barren soils continue their vitality in an irreversible vicious circle. In fact, the fact that the number of chemical fertilizers used in Turkey in 2022 is calculated as 561 kg per hectare and is quite high compared to organic fertilizers shows how serious the situation is. Another issue that is not taken into consideration in this regard is that chemical fertilizers, which are high in terms of numbers, cause environmental pollution and groundwater starts to be polluted due to high nitrogen amounts. The important point here is to know that earthworms are involved in waste management regarding the recycling of organic wastes. Chemical fertilizers consumed due to the insufficient amount of organic matter in agricultural areas have difficulty in meeting the needs of the society, so the unconscious and brutal use of these fertilizers in large quantities makes the activity uneconomical. In this context; since the need to organize organic fertilizer programs will arise, it will reduce the consumption figures of these chemicals in the soil and economic fertilization will be made by increasing the level of utilization of fertilizers by plants. When evaluated in terms of both plant and soil health and public health, it is concluded that organic fertilization studies are rational.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 1.Giriş Yaşadığımız dünyayı hızla kirletiyoruz. Atıklar için yeni öneri ve projelerin gerekliliği tartışılmaz biçimde açığa çıkmıştır. Pazar atıklarını ve evlerimizde meydana gelen meyve-sebze atıkları gibi organik kökenli atıkları artık çöpe atmak yerine vermikompost teknolojisi ile dönüştürmek mümkündür. Solucan gübresini basit bir dille ifade etmek gerekirse, kırmızı Kaliforniya Solucanlarının bitkisel ve hayvansal atıklarını işlemesi sonucu meydana gelen solucan dışkısıdır. Solucan gübresi; mikro florlar ve özel solucanların organik maddeleri hümik maddelere dönüştürme işlemi sonucunda meydana gelen bir üründür. Görünüş olarak siyah toprağa benzer ve itici bir kokusu yoktur. Kırmızı solucanlar namı değer Eisenia fetida gübre üretimi için en iyi solucanlardır. Sıradan toprak solucanlarına göre iç içe ve kalabalık bir nüfus yoğunluğunda yaşamayı sevmektedirler ve ayrıca da saklanmazlar. Doğada hemen hemen her toprağın derinliklerine yönelmiş bir kırmızı solucan bulamazsınız (Anonim, 2014). Sürdürülebilir tarım uygulamaları büyük ölçüde topraklardaki organik madde dengesine bağlıdır (Dostal, 2002). Son zamanlarda, yüksek kaliteli tarım ürünleri elde etmek ve çevreyi tarımsal uygulamalardan korumak amacıyla organik tarımsal atıkların bitkisel üretimde kullanılmasına ilgi artmaktadır (Vavoulidou ve ark., 2004). Bitki büyümesi, çevresel filtreleme, su düzenleme ve depolama gibi çeşitli işlevlerdeki toprakların performansı, bunların kalitesinin göstergesidir (Larson ve Pierce, 1991). Tarımda toprağın kalitesi ve verimliliği önemli faktörlerdir. Başarılı bir ürün yetiştirme sisteminin zorluklarını hafifletmek için yeterli toprak organik maddesine sahip olmak önemlidir; bu nedenle toprağın verimliliğini artırmak için çeşitli organik gübreler tavsiye edilmektedir (Petkova, 2002). Türkiye'nin gayri safi üretiminin büyük bir kısmı tarımsal faaliyetlerden kaynaklanmaktadır. Bilindiği üzere; tarım sektöründe buğday, arpa, tütün ve pamuk ürünleri üretimi önemli miktarda tarımsal atık oluşmasına neden olmaktadır. Normalde bu atıklar ya yakılmakta ya da çürümeye bırakılmaktadır. Atıkların çevre üzerinde önemli bir etkisi vardır ve her iki durumda da söz konusu atıklar kullanılabilir kaynakların yok olmasına neden olmaktadır (Başçetinçelik ve ark., 2005). Mineral gübre ve böcek ilacı gibi kimyasal maddelerin kullanılmadığı tarım ve organik maddelerin kullanımını içeren organik üretim, "organik tarımın" temel ilkesidir. Yeşil gübre kullanımı, organik tarımda bitki besin gereksinimlerini karşılamak için organik gübrelerin uygulanmasıyla birlikte şiddetle tavsiye edilen bir yöntemdir. Organik gübreler ve yeşil gübreleme topraktaki biyolojik aktiviteyi artıran uygulamalardır (Çengel ve ark., 2009). İnsan ihtiyaçlarının karşılanmasında ön sıralarda yer alan tarıma dayalı gıda sanayi, son yıllarda yaşanan ekonomik krizlerden, toprağın analiz edilmeden kaynaklanan yanlış gübre 302 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal uygulanmasından ve dolayısıyla bu gübre uygulamasının sebep olduğu toprağın tuzlanması ve asitlenmesi gibi tarımsal faaliyetlerden ve kısmen de olsa artık tüm gerçekliyle kabul edilen iklim değişikliğinin olumsuz etkilerini fark ettirmektedir. Tüm bu hatalar nedeniyle tarımsal arazilerimizin verimliliği maalesef gittikçe azalmaktadır (Bellitürk, 2010). Tarımsal alanlarımızdaki toprakların organik madde bakımından fakir olduğu herkes tarafından bilinmektedir. Ancak potasyum açısından yeterli, fosfor açısından ise kısmen yeterli olan toprağın nadasa bırakılmamasından ve işlenen ürün tarafından kaldırılması nedeniyle üretim yapılan toprakta zamanla fosfor, potasyum ve organik madde bakımından fakirleşme durumunun yaşanabileceği göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır. Ülkemizde birçok tarım ürününde üretimden tüketime kadar çeşitli sıkıntılar ile karşılaşılmaktadır. Gübreleme programlarının seçiminde sadece çiftçilerinin gözlemlerinin değerlendirilmesi dolayısıyla gübreleme faaliyetlerinin toprak ve yaprak analizine göre yapılmaması da bu sorunlardan biri sayılmaktadır. Özellikle gübre girdilerinin maliyeti dengeli gübreleme programının uygulanması ile kısmen de azaltılabileceği bilinmelidir. Bunu yapmanın tek yolu vardır; o da ekim yapılması planlanan tarım alanının çiftçi tarafından çok iyi tanınmasıdır. Tanınma işlemi, toprağın kimlik kartını çıkartmak gibidir. İçerisinde ne var ne yok bilinmesidir (Bellitürk, 2009). Türkiye İstatistik Kurumu’nun düzenli olarak yaptığı veri toplama çalışmalarında, 2022 yılı için Türkiye çapında toplam tarım alanı, 238.639.481 dekar olup bunun 165.096.258 dekarı ekilen alan olarak bildirilmiştir. Yine aynı şekilde, toplam tarım alanı 38.482 bin hektar olarak söz konusu kurum tarafından hesaplanmış olup 20.194 bin hektar alan ise toplam işlenen tarım alanı sınıfına girmektedir. Tekirdağ bazında değerlendirildiğinde; işlenen tarım alanı ise 4.153.674 dekar olarak kayıtlara geçmiştir. 2022 yılında çiftçiler tarafından kullanılan kimyasal gübre miktarı toplamda 11.332.709 ton, bunun azotlu olanı, 7.520.871 ton, fosforlu olanı, 3.550.343 ton ve potaslı olanı ise 261.495 ton olarak bulunmuştur. Dolayısıyla; Türkiye’nin 2022 yılı nüfusu da göz önüne alınarak tüm bu veriler değerlendirildiğinde; kişi başına düşen ekilebilir (işlenebilir) tarım alanı 0,24 ha/kişi olduğu görülür. Diğer bir veri ise; hektar başına kullanılan kimyasal gübre miktarı, 561 kg’dır. Bu oldukça yüksek miktar olup tarım sektöründe organik gübre miktarının da en az kimyasal kadar kullanılması gerektiği fikri bilimsel otoriteler tarafından kabul görmeye başlamıştır (TÜİK, 2022). Verimliliği arttırıcı tarım yöntemleri arasında kimyasal gübre kullanımı oldukça önemli bir yer tutmaktadır. Ancak hem dünyada hem de ülkemizde verimliliği artırmak amacıyla yaygın ve oldukça fazla miktarda kullanılan bir gübre türü, kimyasal gübreler olarak adlandırılmaktadır. 303 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Özellikle bilinçsiz ve ihtiyaçtan fazlası olacak şekilde uygulanan gübreleme programlarının ekonomik kayıplara yol açması yetmiyormuş gibi aynı zamanda çevre kirliliğine de yol açmaktadır. Bu sebepten azot kirliliği gibi önemli bir çevre kirliliği unsurunun önlenmesi için azotlu gübrenin sızmasını ve birikmesini önleyecek gerekli teknik önlemlerle yani kısacası araziye bilinçli bir şekilde tatbik edilmesi gerekmektedir. Mineral gübrelerin hiç kullanılmaması ya da kullanımının sınırlandırılması tarımsal üretime negatif bir yönde tesir edeceğinden bu gübrelerin hem doğru miktarlarda hem de aşırıya kaçmadan dengeli bir şekilde tüketilmesi ile birlikte bahsedilen problemin çözülmesi sağlanacaktır (Bellitürk, 2004). Bilindiği üzere, toprakta yeterli derecede bulunmayan bitki besin elementlerinin kültür bitkileri tarafından daha iyi absorplanması için çeşitli gübreleme programlarının uygulanması gerekir. Yine aynı şekilde, bitki besin elementlerinin toprağa katılması organik ve inorganik kökenli gübrelerin kullanılması ile gerçekleşmektedir. Bu bağlamda; tarımda kullanılan inorganik gübrelerden kaynaklanan çevre kirliliğinin ve bu kirliliğin insan ve halk sağlığı üzerindeki negatif tesirleri son yıllarda oldukça fazla gündeme gelmektedir (Bellitürk, 2005). FAO'nun yapmış olduğu açıklamaya göre; Avrupa'da sıkı (kil yapısı büyük bir çoğunlukta olan) ve derin yapılı tarım topraklarında buğday yetiştirmekten elde edilen gelirin 1/7'si gübreleme maliyetini temsil ederken, benzer karakteristik özelliklere sahip Trakya Bölgesi'nde ise gübreleme maliyetinin 1/4'ü karşılanmaktadır. Yani, buğday ekiminden elde edilen toplam gelir, buğday ekiminden elde edilen gelirin 4/4'ü kadar olup, bunun 1'i gübreleme maliyetini temsil etmektedir. Sebebi ise Trakya'da organik gübrelerin kullanılmaması, ülkemizde ise sadece kimyasal gübrelerin kullanılması olduğu söylenmektedir (FAO, 2019). Bu çalışmayla, sürdürülebilir tarımda organik madde ve solucanların toprak sağlığı ile ilişkisinin tarım ve çevre dostu uygulamalar açısından önemi ortaya konmuştur. 2. Toprak Organik Maddesine Faydası Olmayan Tarımsal Uygulamalar Topraklarda organik maddenin düşük olması yanında, pH değerinin de nötrün çok altında veya üzerinde olması durumlarında bazı ekstrem (örneğin çay bitkisi asit karakterli topraklarda iyi yetişir) bitkilerin dışında birçok bitki sağlıklı olarak yetişememektedir. Ayrıca toprak organik maddesinin %1 ve altında olması durumunda, özellikle bu tip topraklara uygulanan kimyasal gübrelerdeki N’un yarısı, P’un %70-85’i ve K’un %30 civarı çeşitli sebeplerle bitkiler tarafından alınamamaktadır. Buna ilişkin şekil 1’de verilmiştir. 304 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 1. Organik madde düzeyi düşük olan topraklardaki N, P, K elementlerinin alınabilir oranları Çay gibi özel bitkilerin dışında, tarımsal amaç için yetiştirilen bitkiler nötr değerinin altında veya üzerinde olan toprak pH’ları varlığında genellikle verim düşüklüğü ortaya çıkartırlar. Bu tip pH bakımından uygun olmayan aynı zamanda düşük organik maddeye sahip tarım topraklarının mutlaka ıslah edilmesi gerekmektedir. Toprak pH değerine göre elde edilen verim oranlarını gösteren örnek Çizelge 1’de sunulmuştur (Halliday ve ark., 1992). Çizelge 1. Bazı tarla bitkileri ile toprak pH değeri arasındaki ilişki (Halliday ve ark., 1992). Ürün 4.7 Mısır Buğday Soya fasulyesi Yulaf Arpa Yonca Çayır otu 34 68 65 77 0 2 31 Buğday 34 pH 5.0 5.7 6.8 Ortalama Verim (En iyi: 100; En kötü: 0) (%) 73 83 100 78 89 100 79 80 100 93 99 98 23 80 95 9 42 100 47 66 100 73 83 100 7.5 85 99 93 100 100 100 95 85 Çizelge 1’den de görüldüğü gibi, örneğin buğday bitkisinden %100 verim alınabilmesi için en uygun pH değerinin 6,8 olduğu görülmektedir. Şekil 2’te organik gübrelerin bitkileri besleme görevinin yanında toprakları ıslah ettiği görülmektedir. Buna karşın kimyasal gübreler, sadece bitki ile ilgilenmekte toprak canlılığına herhangi bir katkıları bulunmamaktadır. Toprak içerisinde organik madde artışı dolaylı yoldan topraktaki makro ve mikro elementlerinin de 305 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal miktar olarak yükselmesini sağlamaktadır. İlaveten topraktaki faydalı mikroorganizmaların popülasyonu da artmış olmaktadır. Bitki köklerinin beslenmesi faaliyeti her iki gübrenin temel fonksiyonun arasında bulunmakta ancak faydalanma mekanizması açısından değerlendirildiğinde, organik gübrenin daha kapsamlı bir işlevi olduğu görülmekte ve kimyasal gübreye nazaran toprağa çeşitli avantajlar sunmaktadır. Şekil 2. Organik gübre ve kimyasal gübre arasındaki farklar. 3. Toprak Organik Maddesine Faydası Olan Tarımsal Uygulamalar Solucanlar; toprak yapısını, verimliliğini ve ürün verimini ciddi şekilde etkileyebilmektedirler. Besleyici özellikleri ve galeri açıcı fonksiyonları sayesinde genel toprak yapısını olumlu yönde iyileştirebilmekte, su sızmasını artırabilmekte, yüzeye uygulanan organik madde, kireç ve gübrelerin toprağa karışmasını (nüfuz etmesini) hızlandırabilmekte ve toprağın gözenekli yapısını artırabilmektedirler. Ayrıca bitki köklerinin gelişimini destekledikleri, kök hastalıkları sayısını önemli ölçüde azalttıkları, çayır ve tarla bitkilerinin verimini ve özellikle tahıl kalitesini (örn. protein içeriği) artırdıkları hem laboratuvarda hem de arazide kanıtlanmıştır. Bundan başka solucanlar, metabolizmalarının nitrojen (N) içeren ürünlerini ölü dokudaki protein, atık ürünler (idrar) ve epidermal bezler tarafından salgılanan mukoprotein şeklinde toprağa geri döndürdükleri için toprağın nitrojen döngüsünde önemli bir rol oynadıkları da bilimsel otoriteler tarafından bilinmektedir. Pek çok ülkede toprak asitliği dikkate alınması gereken ciddi bir sorundur. Alınmadığı taktirde tarımsal üretimin devamı söz konusu olamamaktadır. Amonyum temelli azotlu gübrelerin kullanımı ve azot bağlayan legüminozlar toprak asitleşmesini önemli bir seviyede arttırdığı kayıt altına alınmıştır. Asitlenmeyi dengelemek için toprak yüzeyine kireç uygulanır. Ancak bu kirecin ihtiyaç duyulan kök bölgesine nüfuzu 306 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal genellikle çok yavaştır. Bazı araştırmalara göre, Yeni Zelanda ve Avustralya gibi ülkelerde, bazı solucan türlerinin kirecin toprağa nüfuzunu ve dolaylı olarak pH'ını artırabildiği bildirilmiştir (Mısırlıoğlu, 2017). (a) (b) Şekil 3. (a)’da kimyasal gübre (b)’de ise solucan gübresi. Şekil 3 (a)’da bir taban kimyasal gübresi olan DAP (Diamonyum Fosfat) ve Şekil 3 (b)’de organik gübre olan solucan gübresi gösterilmiştir. DAP gübresi, içerdiği fosforun %90’ından fazlası suda eriyebildiğinden, toprağa verildikten hemen sonra toprak içerisinde gerekli nem sağlanırsa bitkilerin yararlanabileceği forma dönüşür. Ayrıca içerisinde bulunan azot, bitkilerin erken olgunluğa ulaşmasını sağlamaktadır. Ancak, toprağı beslememektedir. Halbuki, organik gübreler tam anlamıyla toprak canlandırıcı aşı gibi davranmaktadır. Solucanlar, toprağın yapısını, randımanını ve bitki üretimini önemli seviyede tesir etmektedirler. Beslenmeleri ve galeri açma faaliyetleri yöntemiyle toprağın stabilitesini olumlu yönde değiştirebilmektedirler. Suyun toprağın içine sızmasını ve toprağın suyun emme kapasitesini yükseltebilirler, toprağın üst kısmına tatbik edilen doğal malzeme, kireç ve gübrelerin toprakla karışımını hızlandırabilirler, toprağın porozitesinin artmasını sağlayabilmektedirler. Bunun yanı sıra bitki kök gelişimini destekledikleri, kök rahatsızlıkları oranını önemli seviyede azalttıkları, çayır ve ürün rekoltesi ile tahıl standardını üst seviyelere çıkarttıkları gerek laboratuvar gerekse arazi şartlarında oluşturulan çalışmalarla ispatlanmıştır. Pek çok ülkede, topraklara solucanlar enjekte edilmesinin, çayır randımanını %10 ila %75 içinde değişen oranlarda, tahıl bitkilerinin gelişimini %39, tohum rekoltesini %35, tohumun azot içeriğini %12 nispetinde yükselttiği bildirilmiştir. İlaveten oluşturulan sera çalışmalarında, 307 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal bitki randımanını bariz biçimde etkiledikleri, bunun yanı sıra buğday ve yonca standart seviyesini yükselttikleri ispatlanmıştır. Mesela Aporrectodea caliginosa`nın tahıl ve yonca bitkisi biyokütlesini, sırasıyla %39 ve %21 oranında artırdığı görülmüştür. Yine bu tür solucanın tohum rekoltesini %35, tohum azot içeriğini %14 oranında yükselttiği ispatlanmıştır. Bir başka konu ise, toprak solucanlarının topraktaki azot çevriminde önemli rol oynadıkları bilinmektedir (Mısırlıoğlu, 2011; Tomati, 1995). Arancon ve ark. (2005)`na bakılırsa az oranda toprağa katıldıklarında bile bitkilerin gelişmelerini önemli seviyede yükselten vermikompost hem çiçekçilikte hem de meyve ile sebze yetiştiriciliğinde faal bir biçimde çiftçiler tarafından kullanılmaktadır. Vermikompostun toprak yapısına kazanılmasının sağladığı bitki besin elementleriyle bitkilerin sadece sağlıklı, kaliteli ve bereketli olmalarını sağlamakla kalmaz, hümik asit ve gelişme hormonlarıyla büyümelerini de düzenli hale getirmektedir. Ayrıca, mikrobiyal aktivite ve mikrobiyal biyokütle seviyelerini de yükselterek toprak randıman ve kalite standardının yükselmesini sağlamaktadır. Bundan başka toprak kaynaklı hastalıkların ve zararlıların hasarlarını da engellemektedir. Vermikompost bitkilerin gelişmeleri için toprakta olması ihtiyaç duyulan bitki besin elementlerini tedarik etmesi ve toprağı daha da verimli hale getirmesiyle birlikte pH, EC, havalanma, su tutma kapasitesi, partikül büyüklüğü, agregatlaşma şeklinde fizyolojik ve kimyasal niteliklerini düzenli hale getirmektedir (Bryan ve Lance, 1991; Gallagher ve Wollenhaupt, 1997; Gouin, 1998). Bilinmektedir ki; vermikompost, solucanların kendi öz salgıları ile kazanılmış olduğu özellikler vasıtasıyla bitkilerin gelişmesinde önemli rol oynamaktadır (Shobha, 2008). Yürütülen bir araştırmada vermikompost gübresi tatbik edilmiş topraklarda azotu sabitleyen bakteriler, mikorizal mantarlar ve aktinomisetlerin popülasyonunda bir artma görüldüğü, dolayısıyla topraktaki azot miktarının artışa geçtiği bildirilmiştir (Kale, 1992). Atiyeh ve ark. (2000a), domates ve marul tohumlarının vermikompost gübresi tatbik edilerek çimlendirilmesi ile alakalı araştırma faaliyetlerinde, büyükbaş hayvan gübresi ile vermikompost mukayese edilmiştir. Netice itibariyle; vermikompostun bitki büyümesi ile ilgili olumlu etkileri sayesinde büyükbaş hayvan gübresi ile mukayese edildiğinde çok daha iyi sonuç alındığı gözlemlenmiştir. 308 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 4. Vermikompost ve Toprak Sağlığı Vermikompostlama, toprak solucanlarının organik madde parçalanması için çok yönlü doğal biyoreaktörler olarak kullanılmasını içeren etkili bir besin geri dönüşüm sürecidir. Solucan gübreleri toprak verimliliğini arttırır, bitki büyümesini arttırır ve besin zenginliği ve mikrobiyal faaliyetler yoluyla bitki patojenlerinin ve haşere popülasyonlarının çoğalmasını önler. Toprak solucanları mikro ve makro besin maddeleri ve mikrobiyal enzimler açısından oldukça verimli bir kaynak olarak değerlendirilebilir (Lavelle ve Martin, 1992).Toprak solucanları bağırsaklarındaki mikroorganizma miktarını beş kata kadar (Edwards ve Lofty, 1977) ve bağırsaklarından geçerken yutulan materyalde bulunan bakteri ve 'aktinomiset' miktarını 1.000 kata kadar artırmıştır (Edwards ve Fletcher, 1988). Benzer bir artış, toprak solucanlarının bağırsaklarından geçerken toplam bakteri, proteolitik bakteri ve aktinomisetlerin plaka sayımlarında da gözlenmiştir (Parle, 1963; Daniel ve Anderson, 1992; Pedersen ve Hendriksen, 1993; Devliegher ve Verstraete, 1995).Mikrobiyal popülasyondaki artışın, toprak solucanının sindirim sisteminde mikropların gelişimi için uygun koşulları ve enerjiyi sağlayan besin maddeleri açısından oldukça verimli olan ve aynı zamanda mikroorganizmaların gelişimi için bir molekülün reaksiyona girmiş hali olarak hizmet eden organik atıkların yutulması nedeniyle mümkün olduğu bildirilmiştir (Tiwari ve ark., 1989).Vermikompost ilavesinin toprak pH'ını, mikrobiyal popülasyonu ve toprak enzim aktivitelerini olumlu yönde etkilediği (Maheswarappa ve ark., 1999) ve ayrıca olası çevre kirliliğine neden olan suda çözünebilir kimyasalların miktarını önemli ölçüde azalttığı bilimsel otoriteler tarafından onaylanmıştır (Mitchell ve Edwards, 1997). Vermikompost ilavesi 50-500 μm arasında değişen makro gözenek alanını genişletmekte, topraktaki hava-su ilişkisini iyileştirmekte ve bitki gelişimini olumlu yönde etkilemektedir (Marinari ve ark., 2000).Ayrıca solucan faaliyetleri toprak yapısını daha iyi bir seviyeye getirmekte ve bu nedenle kimyasalların yüzey sularına akışı azalmaktadır. Solucan kalıntıları yaşlandıkça stabil hale gelir, böylece erozyon riski büyük ölçüde azalmaktadır. Bu bağlamda toprak solucanlarının toprak sağlığı açısından toprak fonksiyonunu olumlu yönde etkilediği anlaşılmaktadır. Onlar sağlıklı, düzgün işleyen bir toprağın işaretleridir (Farenhorst ve ark., 2000). Toprak solucanlarının organik atık kalıntılarını parçalayarak mikrobiyal bozulmayı teşvik etmek, toprak verimliliğini daha yüksek seviyelere çıkarmak ve toprak agregasyonu gibi toprağın fiziksel niteliklerini iyileştirmek suretiyle toprak kalitesine fayda sağladığı ve yağmur veya sulama suyunun toprak profili boyunca yerçekimi etkisiyle yüzeyden aşağıya doğru 309 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal hareketini kolaylaştırdığı kanıtlanmıştır. Ancak, toprak solucanlarının popülasyonunu sınırlayan en önemli faktör gıdanın bulunabilirliğidir. Ürün artıkları ve örtü bitkileri yoluyla gıda üretmek ve bunları korumalı toprak işleme uygulamaları yoluyla toprak yüzeyinde bırakmak, toprak solucanlarının miktarını artırmak için iyi bir alternatiftir (Donahue, 2001) Dünyanın artan nüfusu, kapsamlı ve yoğun bir tarımsal üretimin ve daha yüksek verimlilik sunan bir ekim sisteminin benimsenmesi ihtiyacını ortaya koymaktadır (Sadowski ve BaerNawrocka, 2018). Bu durum, tarımsal kimyasalların yoğun kullanımını zorunlu kılmakta ve sürdürülebilir olmayan uygulamalara ve tahrip olmuş bir çevreye neden olmaktadır (Chou, 2010). Kimyasal gübrelerin aşırı kullanımı, sürdürülebilir üretim için büyük bir tehdit olan toprak toksisitesine ve besin dengesizliğine neden olmuştur. Son olarak, besin zincirindeki bu mevcut dengesizlikten (Rojas ve ark., 2016) çiftlik hayvanlarının yanı sıra insanların da aynı düzeyde (gıda ürünlerindeki tarımsal kimyasal kalıntılarından etkilendiği tespit edilmiştir (Pimental ve ark., 2018; Rasmussen ve ark., 2016). Küresel olarak, hayvancılık, insan ve bitki faaliyetlerinden kaynaklanan toplam organik katı atık miktarı 38 milyar m3 'ten fazladır (Diacono ve ark., 2019).Büyük miktarlarda üretilen ve hayvanlar için yetersiz yem olan pirinç samanı, yüksek silika ve lingo-selüloz içeriğine sahiptir; yönetilmesi veya tamamen ortadan kaldırılması oldukça zordur (El-Dewany ve ark., 2018). Çoğu çiftçi, bu atıkları tarlada ateşle yok ederek duman gibi hava kirliliğine neden olduklarının farkında olamamaktadırlar (Pimonsree ve ark., 2018).Endüstriler ve eğitim kurumları maksimum miktarlarda kâğıt atık üretmekte ve bu atıklar genellikle düzenli depolama sahalarında bertaraf edilmektedir. Uygun tarımsal ve endüstriyel atıkların geri dönüşümü, toprak sağlığının daha da yüksek seviyelere çıkarılmasında önemli bir rol oynayabilmektedir. Ilıman bölgelerdeki topraklarda organik madde katkısı düşüktür, bu nedenle organik madde katkısı toprak niteliklerinin iyileştirilmesi ve verimliliğin korunması için önemli bir bileşen haline gelmiştir (Hijbeek ve ark., 2017). Vermikompostlama için etkili bir yönetim stratejisi olarak düşünüldüğünde pirinç samanı, inek gübresi ve kâğıt atıkları potansiyel bir substrat olabilir (Sharma ve Garg, 2018). Solucan gübrelemesi, organik katı atıkların yönetimi ve solucanlar ile mikroorganizmalar vasıtasıyla organik maddenin stabilizasyonu için olası bir alternatif olduğu düşünülmektedir (Thomas ve ark., 2019). Solucan gübresi genellikle ortalama %1,5-2,2 N, %1,8-2,2 P ve %1,0-1,5 K değerlerine sahiptir. Organik karbon %9,15 ile %17,98 arasında değişebilmekte ve mikro besin maddelerini içerebilmektedir (Adhikary, 2012). Bitki besin maddelerinin organik kökenlerinin solucanlar tarafından solucan kompostuna dönüştürülmesiyle (çiftlik gübresi (FYM), ürün artıkları, evsel çöpler ve kâğıt atıkları vb) bitki besin kökenlerinin entegre kullanımı 310 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal sağlanmakta, böylece sürdürülebilir tarım yani sürdürülebilir bitkisel üretim açısından büyük ilgi görmektedir (Timsina, 2018). 5. Vermikompostun Bitki Gelişimi Üzerine Etkileri Vermikompost ismi, farklı toprak derinliklerinde yaşayan ve organik atıkları işleyen solucan gübrelerinin organik atık yığınlarını habitatları haline getiren ve gübreleri organik madde bakımından çok daha zengin olan solucan türlerinin yetiştirilmesinden (kültüre alınmasından) ileri gelmektedir. Başka bir deyişle vermikompost, ortamda bulunan solucanların sindirim sisteminden geçişleri sırasında organik maddelerin (bitki ve hayvan artıkları ve atıklar) hızlandırılmış hümifikasyon, detoksifikasyon ve dezenfeksiyon işleminden kaynaklanan solucan dışkısıdır. Solucan kompostunun toprağa eklenmesiyle tarımsal üretim, verimlilik ve toprak sağlığı açısından oldukça önemli olan organik maddeler zenginleştirilmiş toprağa taşınmakta, besin maddelerinin miktarının ve bitkilere alınabilirliğinin artması gibi faydalar sağlanmaktadır. Bitkiler, bitki büyüme düzenleyicileri ile birlikte bitki hastalıklarını önleyici tedbirler ve mikrobiyolojik tedbirler alırlar. Toprak organik maddesi sadece toprak bitkileri için besin kaynağı olmayıp, aynı zamanda toprağın fizikokimyasal ve biyolojik özelliklerini etkileyen son derece etkili bir maddedir.Toprak organik maddesi, toprakta bulunan veya dışarıdan toprağa giren tüm organik maddelerin mikroorganizmaların faaliyeti sonucu ayrışması ve değişim ürünlerinin toprağa karışması sonucu doğal koşullar altında oluşmaktadır. Tüm toprak süreçlerinde olduğu gibi toprağın organik maddesi ile diğer tüm toprak özellikleri arasında birbirine bağlı bir döngü vardır. Toprakta organik madde içeriğinin artması biyolojik süreçleri doğrudan etkileyip yoğunlaştırırken, mikroorganizma popülasyonunun ve aktivitesinin artması da organik maddenin ayrışmasını hızlandırır. Topraktaki organik madde içeriği mikroorganizmaların sayısını ve türünü etkilemektedir. Tarımsal kullanımın yoğun olduğu alanlarda bulunan topraklardaki organik madde miktarı hızla azalmakta, ilave edilmediği takdirde toprağın verimliliği ve sağlığı kaybolmaktadır. Bu kayıplar toprağın biyolojik, kimyasal ve fiziksel yapısını bozarak toprakta aşındırıcı koşulların oluşmasına zemin hazırlamaktadır. Ülkemiz gibi toprak organik maddesinin çok az olduğu tarım alanlarında, organik maddece fakir topraklara organik madde ilavesi yapılmalı, verimliliğin sürekli olarak artması ve toprak sağlığının sağlanması açısından vazgeçilmez ve önemi yadsınamaz bir öneme sahiptir. Topraktaki organik madde miktarının dikkate alınması tarımsal üretimle uğraşanların sorumluluğundadır. Aynı zamanda ülkemizde çiftçilere kimyasal gübre önerilerinin yanı sıra devletin de organik gübre önerileri yöneltilmeli ve kullanımı teşvik edilmelidir (Türkay, 2016). 311 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 6. Vermikompostun Toprağın Fiziksel, Biyolojik ve Kimyasal Özellikleri Üzerindeki Faydalı Etkisi Toprak solucanları karbon döngüsünde, toprak oluşumunda, selüloz ayrışmasında ve humus depolanmasında önemli bir faktör olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Toprak solucanı faaliyetleri ve çalışmaları toprağın fiziksel, kimyasal ve biyolojik niteliklerini derinden etkilemektedir. Toprak solucanları organik atıkların doymak bilmez besleyicileridir ve gelişimleri için bu atıkların sadece küçük bir kısmını alırlar ve bu atıkların çoğunu yarı sindirilmiş bir şekilde vücutlarından atarlar (Edwards ve Lofty, 1977; Kale ve Bano, 1986; Jambhekar, 1992). Organik madde solucanın taşlığından geçerken ince bir toza dönüştürülür, ardından sindirim enzimleri, mikroorganizmalar ve bağırsakta ayrışmasına yardımcı olan diğer fermente edici maddeler ve son olarak solucan bağırsağıyla ilişkili mikroplar tarafından küfler olgun bir ürün olan "vermikompost "a dönüştürülerek dış ortama salınırlar (Dominguez ve Edwards, 2004). Toprak solucanı bağırsağı; yükselen organik karbon, toplam organik karbon ve azot ve nem içeriği, hareketli olmayan mikropların aktivitesi ve endosporların çimlenmesi vb. toprak solucanlarının sindirim sisteminden amilaz, selüloz, proteaz, lipaz, kitinaz ve üreaz gibi çok çeşitli sindirim enzimleri için en uygun habitatı sağlamaktadır. Bağırsak mikroplarının selüloz ve mannoz aktivitelerinden sorumlu olduğu bildirilmiştir (Munnoli ve ark., 2010).Toprak solucanları, toprağın alt tabakasını ayrıştırarak mikrobiyal bozulma için yüzey alanını artırır ve böylece solucan kompostunun aktif aşaması başlamış olur. Bu ezilmiş organik madde; bağırsak geçişi sırasında bağırsak mikropları ve sindirim enzimleriyle karışır ve en sonunda kısmen sindirilmiş, ancak tamamen sindirilmemiş bir formda "kalıplar" olarak ortaya çıkar ve bu mikroplar daha sonra evrim aşamasında ek ayrışma sürecini üstlenmektedir (Lazcano ve ark., 2008). Toprak solucanlarının mikroplarla olan bağlantısının karmaşık olduğu kanıtlanmıştır. Bazı mikrop topluluklarının toprak solucanlarının beslenme programının bir parçası olduğu gösterilmiştir ve bu durum bazı mikropların toprak solucanlarının sindirim sisteminden geçerken yok olmasıyla kanıtlanmıştır. Bu bağlamda, çeşitli mayalar, protozoalar ve Fusarium oxysporum, Alternaria solani, Drawida calebi gibi bazı mantar toplulukları toprak solucanları tarafından sindirilmiştir (Edwards ve Fletcher, 1988). Toprak solucanlarının, toprak substratını oksijenlendirirken sıkıştırıp parçaladıkları ve böylece mikrobiyal aktiviteyi ve biyolojik bozunma potansiyelini büyük ölçüde değiştirdikleri için sürecin önemli itici güçleri olduğu vurgulanmaktadır (Fracchia ve ark., 2006; Lazcano ve ark., 2008). Vermikompostlamanın toprak pH'ı, elektriksel iletkenlik (EC), C:N oranı ve diğer besin maddeleri üzerindeki etkileri kanıtlanmıştır. Solucan aktivitesi gübredeki pH ve C:N oranını düşürmüştür (Gandhi ve ark., 312 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 1997; Atiyeh ve ark., 2000b). Kimyasal analizler sonucunda, solucan gübresinin ana materyale kıyasla daha düşük pH, EC, organik karbon (OC) (Nardi ve ark., 1983; Albanell ve ark., 1988; Mitchell, 1997), C:N oranına (Riffaldi ve Levi-Minzi, 1983; Albanell ve ark., 1988) ve daha yüksek miktarda azot, potasyum, toplam fosfor ve mikro besin maddelerine sahip olduğunu göstermiştir (Hashemimajd ve ark., 2004).Vermikompostun pH değerleri geleneksel komposta kıyasla biraz daha düşüktür, azot ve fosfor mineralizasyonu ve organik maddelerin mikrobiyal ayrışma yoluyla ara organik asitlere, fulvik asitlere ve hümik asitlere dönüşümü (Lazcano ve ark., 2008; Albanell ve ark., 1988; Chan ve Griffiths, 1988; Subler ve ark., 1998) ve buna eşlik eden CO2 üretimi gözlemlenmiştir (Elvira ve ark., 1998; Garg ve ark., 2006).Toprak solucanlarıyla ilgili bakterilerdeki çeşitliliğin faydaları düşünüldüğünde şunlar söylenebilir. Toprak solucanlarında bitki besin maddesi kullanılabilirliğini artırma yeteneğinin muhtemelen toprak solucanı bağırsak mikroflorasının aktivitesine bağlı olduğunu söyleyebiliriz. Toprak solucanları, toprak altlığını ayrışmaya tabi tutarak ve toprak mikroflorasının aktivitesini etkileyerek toprak kimyasal süreç dinamiklerini dolaylı olarak etkilemektedir (Petersen ve Luxton, 1982; Lee, 1985; Edwards ve Bohlen, 1996; Kılbacak ve ark., 2021). 7. Sürdürülebilir Tarımda Vermikompostun Ekonomik ve Çevresel Faydaları Maji ve ark. (2017) vermikomposttaki hümik asit zenginliğinin bitki boyunu, taze ağırlığı ve kuru ağırlığı miktar olarak artırdığını bildirmiştir. Ayrıca, kimyasal gübreye kıyasla maksimum mikrop (bakteri, mantar) miktarı ve yoğunluğu rapor edilmiştir. Vermikompost üretmek için farklı solucan türlerinin kullanıldığı bilinmektedir. Sürdürülebilir tarım için değerlendirildiğinde; vermikompost, konveksiyonel tarımdaki kimyasal gübre miktarının azaltılmasını sağlayan çok güçlü bir biyogübredir. Buradaki önemli faktör, solucanların organik atıkların geri dönüşümü ile ilgili olarak atık yönetiminde yer aldığının bilinmesidir (Bhat ve ark., 2017). Sequeira ve Chandrashekar (2015) evsel gıda, kâğıt, sebze ve bahçe atıkları (çim ve yapraklar) ile inek gübresinin Eudrilus sp. tarafından vermikomposta dönüştürülmesinin sağlandığını; kompostun yüksek verime ve bakteriler, mantarlar, aktinomisetler, Pseudomonadlar, PSolubilizatörler ve N2 Fiksatörlerinden oluşan faydalı mikrobiyal gruplara sahip olduğunu bildirmiştir. Sentetik kimyasalların gelişigüzel kullanımı tarımsal üretim sisteminde birçok soruna neden olmakta ve kullanım amacı dışında organizmalar üzerinde olumsuz etki yaratmaktadır. Vermikompost, organik atıkların solucanlar aracılığıyla, yararlı bakteri 313 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal popülasyonunu tehlikeye atmadan, besin maddeleri açısından oldukça verimli olan komposta dönüştürülmesinde kullanılan önemli bir yöntemdir. Son zamanlarda birçok araştırmacı sürdürülebilir tarım için vermikompost üzerine çalışmalarını sıklaştırmıştır. Bu bağlamda; organik atıkların vermikomposta dönüştürüldüğü ve söz konusu kompostun yüksek azot-fosforpotasyum, karbon-azot, faydalı mikroorganizma ve büyüme hormonu içeriğine sahip olduğu görülmüştür (Adhikary, 2012).Çiftlik hayvanlarının dışkıları vermikompost adı verilen sürdürülebilir bir yöntemle yönetilmeye başlanması çok yeni bir teknolojidir. Bu geri dönüşüm süreci uygulanmaya başlanmadan önce; geleneksel kompostlamadaki enerji ve kullanılan insan gücü sayısı israf edilebilmekteydi. Ancak solucan kullanımı devreye girdiğinde kompost çok hızlı bir şekilde ayrışmaya başlamakta olduğu görüldü ve geri dönüştürülebilir yüksek miktarda besin ve mikrobiyal biyokütleye sahip bir hammadde meydana geldiği de ispatlanmıştır (Nasiru ve ark., 2013). Vermikompostlama, hem solucanlara hem de ilgili mikroplara fayda sağlayan ve geleneksel termofilik kompostlamaya göre birçok avantajı olan uygun maliyetli ve çevre dostu bir atık yönetimi teknolojisidir. Vermikompost olarak adlandırılan organik materyaller, mükemmel biyogübre kaynaklarıdır ve bunların eklenmesi tarım toprağının fizyokimyasal ve biyolojik özelliklerini iyileştirmektedir (Koç ve ark., 2021). Mükemmel fiziko-kimyasal özelliklere ve tamponlama yeteneğine sahip olan ve tüm besin maddelerini bitkilerin kullanabileceği formlara getiren vermikompostlar, antagonistik ve bitki gelişimini destekleyen bakterilerle daha üretken hale gelmekte, aynı zamanda toprak ıslahı, toprak verimliliğinin artırılması, bitki gelişimi ve sürdürülebilir tarım için patojen mikroorganizmaları, zararlıları ve nematodları önlemektedirler. Tüm hastalıklar için tedavi görevi gören muhteşem organik materyallerdir (Pathama ve Sakthivel, 2012). Domates fideleri üzerinde 1. Çiğ süt gübresi ve tütün kalıntısı, 2. Bahçe yaprakları, 3. Arıtma çamuru + pirinç kabuğu, 4. Arıtma çamuru + bahçe yaprakları ve çiğ süt gübresinden elde edilen vermikompost ile bir sera denemesi yapılmıştır; Tüm denemeler tanığa göre anlamlı büyüme göstermiştir (Hasheminajs ve ark., 2006). Lim ve ark. (2014) soya fasulyesi kabuğu ve papaya atıklarının atık yönetimi için çeşitli oranlarda E. eugeniae ile çalışıldığını bildirmiştir. Çeşitli 1:1 oranlarının vermikompost için en iyi kombinasyon olduğu bildirilmiştir. Vermikompostun Petroselinum crispum üzerindeki etkinliği incelenmiş ve sonuçlar vermikompostun yaprak boyutunu, bitki boyunu ve verimi artırdığını göstermiştir (Peyvast ve ark., 2008).Kaouachi ve ark. (2013) zeytin atıklarının E. andrei solucanları kullanılarak vermikomposta dönüştürüldüğünü bildirmiştir. Elde edilen vermikompostun azot-fosfor-potasyum, kalsiyum, magnezyum, sodyum ve gerekli EC ve C/N oranını arttırdığı gözlemlenmiştir.Solucan gübresi suyu ile muamele edilen mısır fideleri 314 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal normal su ile karşılaştırıldığında, solucan gübresinde bitki büyümesine yol açan hormonların varlığına işaret eden, tüy uzunluğunda belirli bir değişiklik tespit edilmiştir (Nagavallemma ve ark., 2004).Solucan gübresi uygulamasında sorgum (Sorghum bicolor) (Patil ve Sheelavantar, 2000), ayçiçeği (Helianthus annuus) (Devi ve ark., 1998), domates (Lycopersicon esculentum) (Nagavallemma ve ark., 2004), patlıcan (Solanum melangona) (Guerrero ve Guerrero, 2006). Bamya (Abelmoschus esculentus) (Gupta ve ark., 2008), sümbül fasulyesi (Lablab purpureas) (Karmegam ve Daniel, 2008), üzüm (Buckerfield ve Webster, 1998) ve kiraz (Webster, 2005) yetiştiriciliğinde olumlu sonuçlar gözlemlenmiştir. Vermikompost gübresi ile karıştırılmış toprakta yetiştirilen kırmızı yonca ve salatalığın sürgün dokularında Ca, Mg, Cu, Mn ve Zn gibi mineral içeriklerinde artış gözlenmiştir (Sainz ve ark., 1998). Bunun gibi diğer çalışmalara baktığımızda, vermikompostlanmış ördek atıkları, işlenmemiş atıklara kıyasla domates, marul ve biberde daha iyi büyüme ve gelişme sağlamıştır (Wilson ve Carlile, 1989). P. brassicae'nin neden olduğu lahana çürüklüğü, lahana köklerinin kil ve vermikompost kokteyline daldırılmasıyla önlenmiştir (Szcech ve ark., 1993). Vermikompostlanmış inek gübresi marul ve domates bitkilerinin büyümesini teşvik ederken, işlenmemiş ana materyal bitki büyümesini teşvik etmemiştir (Atiyeh ve ark., 2000b). Sonuçlar ve Öneriler Tarım arazilerinde organik madde miktarının yetersiz olması nedeniyle kullanılan kimyasal gübreler ihtiyacı karşılayamamakta dolayısıyla kimyasal gübre kullanımı artışa geçmekte ve netice itibariyle ekonomik gübreleme mümkün olmamaktadır. Ancak organik gübre kullanımıyla toprağın organik maddesinin artması, kimyasal gübre kullanımını azaltacak, bitkilerin “gübre faydalanma oranını” daha da üst seviyelere çıkartacak ve ekonomik gübrelemeyi sağlayacaktır. Sadece ekonomik gübreleme sağlanmayacak, aynı zamanda kalite ve verim de artacak, dolayısıyla üreticilerin geliri de artacak, elbette güvenlik artacak ve toprak gelecek nesillere daha verimli ve temiz bir şekilde aktarılacaktır (Bellitürk ve Goldmann Benardete, 2020). Ülkemizde gübrelerin doğru ve sürdürülebilir kullanımını sağlamak için toprak, yaprak ve su analizlerinin yaygınlaştırılması ve kalitesinin iyileştirilmesi gerekmektedir. Bilinçli gübre kullanımının yaygınlaşması ülke ekonomisine önemli katkı sağlayacağı aşikardır. Tarım alanının arttırılmasının mümkün olmaması, nüfusun sürekli değişen ihtiyaçları ve kırsal kesimde yaşayanların sayısının azalması gibi nedenlerden dolayı tüketilen kimyasal gübrelerdeki artışın azaltılmasına yönelik çalışmaların yapılması ayrıca birim alandan daha fazla ürün elde edebilmek için doğru ve bilinçli gübre kullanımının 315 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yaygınlaştırılması gerekmektedir. Aksi halde zamanla kimyasal gübre ve tarım ilaçlarının aşırı ve dikkatsiz bir şekilde sarfiyatı yer altı ve yerüstü su kaynaklarının kirlenmesinde en büyük etken haline gelecektir. Söz konusu kirliliğin insan sağlığına oldukça zararlı olduğunu akıldan çıkartılmamalıdır. Buna göre ülkemizin her bölgesinde iklim ve toprak özelliklerinin farklı olduğu düşünülerek her bölge için bölgenin kendi özelliklerine has (spesifik) araştırmaların yapılmasının gübre kayıplarının ve çevre kirliliğinin önlenmesi açısından şüphesiz yararlı bir yaklaşım olacağı söylenebilir (Bellitürk, 2008).Organik gübrelerin mikro ve makro elementlerinin üzerindeki faydaları görülmektedir. Organik gübreler, toprakta mikrobiyolojik faaliyeti hızlandırarak strüktür, havalanma ve toprakta su tutma kapasitesinin arttırılması yanında makro ve mikro besin maddelerini sağlaması gibi toprağa çok yönlü olumlu katkıları vardır.Toprağın oluşması için geçen süre onun meydana gelmesindeki zorluğu gösterir ki yaşamın devamlılığı ve medeniyetin gelişimi için hayati önem taşıyan önemli bir doğal kaynak olmaya devam etmektedir. Ülkemizde “miktar olarak tarlaya ne kadar çok gübre atarsan, o denli randıman alırsın” mantığı ile gübreleme faaliyetleri gerçekleştirilmektedir. Bunun sonucunda çoğu kez topraklarda, yetiştirilen birçok üretimde ve çevrede istenmeyen problemler meydana gelmektedir.Tarımın asıl amacı, karmaşık bir sistem olan toprakta yüksek bereketli ve ekonomik bitki yetiştirmektir. Günümüzde tarımsal üretimde verimliliği çoğaltmak amacıyla kullanılan üretim girdileri kontrolsüz bir halde artmaktadır. Kullanılan kimyasal gübreler bir taraftan randımanın yükselmesini sağlarken, bir taraftan da çevre ve insan sağlığına da negatif açıdan tesir etmektedir. Örneğin toprağa atılan amonyum nitrat gübresinin fazlası, suda çözülerek mühim bir çevre kirleticisi olabilmektedir (Bellitürk, 2012).Ülkemizde toprak üretim randımanın muhafaza edilmesi ve üst seviyelere çıkartmak için acil bir şekilde yerine getirilmesi ihtiyaç duyulan unsurlar aşağıda sıralanmıştır. Bunlar; - Bilindiği üzere; ürün rotasyonunun (ekim nöbeti) kullanılması faaliyeti, toprak yorgunluğunun önlenmesinde esastır. Yani tarımsal uygulamalarda, ekim nöbeti faaliyetinin kullanılması, - Toprağın organik madde miktarının muhafaza edilmesi ve miktar olarak yükseltilmesi (zenginleştirilmesi), dolayısıyla kompost ve vermikompost gibi organik gübrelerin kullanımının yaygınlaştırılmasının sağlanması, - Topraktaki diğer önemli bitki besin maddelerinin korunması ve miktar olarak yükseltilmesi, 316 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal - Pek çok faydaları ile birlikte toprak erozyonunun da düşürülmesi maksadıyla organik gübre kullanımının teşvik edilmesi ve yaygın duruma getirilmesi, - Devirmeli toprak işlemenin terk edilmesi, - Bitki artıklarının yüzeye yakın bir yerde depolanması ve anızların yakılmaması, - Toprağı az sıkıştırma işlemi yapan tarım iş makineleri ve traktörlerden yararlanılması, - Aşırı kimyasal gübre sarfiyatına bağlı topraklardaki asitleşme ve tuzluluğun ortadan kaldırılması ile ilgili ıslah faaliyetlerinin gerçekleştirilmesi, - Asit karakterli topraklarda tarım kirecinden yararlandırılması, - Tarımda denetlenebilen ve çalışma sahasından elde edilen girdilerin uygulanması üzerinde stabil ve teknolojik yenileşim üzerine kurulu tarımsal politikalar gelişmesinin sağlanması, - Toprağa uygun üretme-ekme işleminin yapılması (asit topraklarda yaban mersini vb. alternatif ürünler gibi) ve bu üretime uygun gübreden yararlandırılması, - Problemli tarım alanlarının saptanması, bu problemlerin halledilmesine ilişkin ihtiyaç olan ıslah faaliyetlerinin gerçekleştirilmesi, - Bilgi kirliliğinin mâni olmak ve tarım işinde çalışanlara en doğru bilgilerin verilebilmesi amacıyla güncel ve bilimsel bir tarımsal veri tabanının şekillenmesine ilişkin faaliyetlerin gerçekleştirilmesi, - Modern tarım yöntemleri kullanılırken, profesyonellere danışılması, - Bitkilerin gübreden faydalanma oranlarının yükseltilebilmesi için; biyoteknolojinin kullanılması suretiyle bitki köklerince atılan gübredeki bitki besin maddesi emisyonunun yükseltilmesinin sağlanması gerekmektedir (Bellitürk, 2012). 317 VI.

Email: ahmetcelik@adiyaman.edu.tr Özet Bu araştırmada, bitkisel kökenli çerezlik ayçiçeği atığı (SW) ve hayvansal kökenli inek dışkısı (CM) atıkları belirli oranlarda karıştırılarak Eisenia fetida yardımıyla laboratuvar koşullarında vermikompost üretilmiştir. Bu amaçla Tekirdağ Namık Kemal Üniversitesi Ziraat Fakültesi Toprak Bilimi ve Bitki Besleme Bölümü’nde bulunan 3 Numaralı laboratuvarda 4 ay süren ve 2 tekerrürlü olarak düzenlenen söz konusu araştırma tamamıyla şansa bağlı deneme planına göre planlanarak yürütülmüştür. Denemede kapaklı özel kaplar kullanılarak 5 farklı uygulama (SW100CM0; SW75CM25; SW50CM50; SW25CM75; SW0CM100) ve her bir uygulama için de 20’şer adet Eisenia fetida cinsi solucanlar kullanılmış olup nemlendirme ihtiyacı için saf su kullanılmıştır. Deneme sonunda elde edilen 5 farklı vermikompost örneklerinde; pH, nem, organik madde, toplam N, P, K, Ca analizleri yapılmıştır. Denemenin sonunda aynı zamanda solucan sayıları da belirlenmiş ve geçen süredeki değişim değerlendirilmiştir. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre, ortalama en yüksek N, P, K, Ca, Mg ve Zn içerikleri sırasıyla %1.61; 136.0 mg/kg; 488.90 mg/kg; 515.65 mg/kg, 106.25 mg/kg ve 2.50 mg/kg değerleri ile çerezlik ayçiçeğinin en yüksek oranda olduğu SW100CM0 uygulamasında tespit edilmiştir. Ancak en yüksek Fe ve Cu içerikleri ise inek gübresinin en fazla olduğu (SW0CM100) vermikompost örneklerinde belirlenmiştir. Bütün parametreler göz önüne alındığında ortalama pH ve nem değerleri sırasıyla 8,58 µS/cm ve %57.73 olarak bulunmuştur. Bütün parametreler içerisinde ortalama en yüksek organik madde miktarı %85.08 ile SW75CM25 uygulamasında saptanmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre, araştırmanın son günündeki 2 tekerrürün ortalamasına göre solucan sayısı en fazla 74 adet solucan ile SW75CM25 uygulamasında belirlenmiş olup, başlangıca göre sadece 54 adet solucan artışı olduğu gözlemlenmiştir. Proje sonuçları hem tarımsal üretim yapan çiftçiler ve hem de vermikompost üreticileri için önemli bilgiler ortaya çıkarmıştır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal OBTAINING VERMICOMPOSTING FROM MIXTURE OF SNACK SUNFLOWER WASTE AND COW MANURE FOR ZERO WASTE AIM Abstract In this research, vermicompost was produced under laboratory conditions with the help of Eisenia fetida by mixing plant-based snack sunflower waste (SW) and animal-origin cow feces (CM) waste in certain proportions. For this aim, the research in question, which lasted 4 months and was organized with 2 replications, was planned and carried out completely according to the random trial plan in the laboratory No. 3 in the Soil Science and Plant Nutrition Department of Tekirdağ Namık Kemal University, Faculty of Agriculture. In the experiment, 5 different applications (SW100CM0; SW75CM25; SW50CM50; SW25CM75; SW0CM100) were used using special containers with lids, and 20 Eisenia fetida earthworms were used for each application, and pure water was used for humidification. In 5 different vermicompost samples obtained at the end of the experiment; pH, moisture, organic matter, total N, P, K, Ca analyzes were performed. At the end of the experiment, worm numbers were also determined and the change over time was evaluated. According to the research results, the highest average N, P, K, Ca, Mg and Zn contents were determined in the SW0CM100 application, where cow feces were at a high rate, with values of 1,61%; 136,0 mg/kg; 488,90 mg/kg; 515,65 mg/kg, 106,25 mg/kg ve 2,50 mg/kg respectively, where confectionery sunflower was at the highest rate. However, the highest Fe and Cu contents were determined in vermicompost samples (SW0CM100) where cow manure was the highest. Considering all parameters, average pH and moisture values were found to be 8,58 µS/cm and 57,73%, respectively. Among all parameters, the highest average organic matter amount was detected in the SW100CM0 application with 85,08%. According to the results obtained, according to the average of the 2 repetitions on the last day of the research, the number of worms was determined in the SW75CM25 application with the maximum number of 74 earthworms, and it was observed that there was only an increase of 54 number of earthworms compared to the beginning. The project results have revealed important information for both farmers engaged in agricultural production and vermicompost producers. Keywords: Cow manure, snack sunflower, Eisenia fetida, vermicompost, organic matter. 327 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 1.Giriş Hızla artan dünya nüfusunun besin ihtiyacını karşılamak için tarımsal üretimde de artışlar gerçekleştirilmelidir. Fakat bu artış zorunluluğu, daha fazla kimyasal gübre kullanımına sebep olur. Tarımsal uygulamalarda kullanılan kimyasal maddeler birçok riski de beraberinde getirir, bunun sonucunda toprak, çevre, gıda güvenliği ve insan sağlığı açısından sıkıntıların çıkmasına sebep olur. Toprak organik maddesini korumak ve artırmak, sera gazı emisyonlarını azaltmak ve toprak verimliliğinin sürdürülebilirliği için mineral ve kimyasal uygulamaların yanında, organik tarım uygulamalarına da yer verilmesi gerekmektedir.Ayçiçeği üretimi; Türkiye’de 2020/2021 sezonunda ayçiçeği üretim miktarı bir önceki sezona oranla %1.6 oranında azalarak 2 milyon ton olmuştur. Bunun 1.9 milyon tonu yağlık olarak üretilmiştir. 2020 yılı yağlık ayçiçeği üretiminde Tekirdağ (353 bin ton), Konya (278 bin ton), Adana (195 bin ton), Edirne (240 bin ton) ve Kırklareli (226 bin ton) ilk sıralarda yer almıştır. TÜİK verilerine göre 2021 yılı ayçiçeği üretiminin bir önceki yıla göre %14.7 oranında artarak 2.4 milyon ton olacağı tahmin edilmektedir (TEPGE, 2021) (Şekil 1).Ülkemizde olduğu gibi dünyada da çerezlik ayçiçeği, önemli oranda gelir getiren bir ürün olmasına rağmen, genelde dünya literatüründe yağlık ayçiçeği ile birlikte değerlendirilmektedir. Gerçek anlamda ülkesel bazda yağlık ve çerezlik olarak ayrı ayrı nitelendirilmesine rağmen, ülkelerarası tarım organizasyonlarında (OECD, FAO, ISA. vb.) çerezlik istatistiklerine pek yer verilmemektedir. Başlıca çerezlik ayçiçeği üreticisi ülkeler, ABD, Macaristan, Arjantin, İspanya, İsrail, Çin, Türkiye ve Moldovya gibi bazı Doğu Avrupa ülkelerdir. Bugün dünyada en fazla çerezlik ayçiçeği üreten ülke ABD’ dir. Bu ülkenin toplam ekim alanı 200 bin ha olup üretimi de 300 bin ton civarındadır. Dünyada başlıca çerezlik ayçiçeği alıcısı ülkeler, kabuksuz olarak Almanya, Danimarka, Hollanda, Kanada, Meksika, İngiltere ve Belçika, kabuklu olarak da İspanya, Çin, Türkiye, Ürdün, Kanada, Meksika, İsrail, Almanya ve Japonya’dır (Anonim, 2023b). Ancak çerezlik ayçiçeğinin atığının değerlendirilemediği bilinen acı bir gerçektir. Sıfır Atık Yönetmeliği’nde “hammadde ve doğal kaynakların etkin yönetimi ile sürdürülebilir kalkınma ilkeleri doğrultusunda atık yönetimi süreçlerinde çevre ve insan sağlığının ve tüm kaynakların korunmasını hedefleyen sıfır atık yönetim sisteminin kurulmasına, yaygınlaştırılmasına, geliştirilmesine, izlenmesine, finansmanına, kayıt altına alınarak belgelendirilmesine ilişkin genel ilke ve esasların belirlenmesidir” şeklinde ifade edildiğine göre, bu projenin ilgili yönetmeliği de güzel bir örnek olacağı düşünülmektedir (Anonim, 2023c).Dorrel ve Vick (1997)’e göre, diğer bitkilerde olduğu gibi, ayçiçeği kabuğu taneyi kaplar ve onu dış faktörlerden korur. Yağlık ayçiçeği tanesinin toplam ağırlığın yaklaşık %21-30'u kabuktur. 328 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Çerezlik çeşitlerde bu oran %36-50 arasında değişir. Bununla beraber çerezlik ve yağlık çeşitlerin kimyasal bileşimleri arasında, çerezliklerin biraz daha fazla lif içermesi hariç, çok önemli bir fark yoktur. Ayçiçeği bitkisinde tanedeki kabuk ve yağ oranı arasında ters bir korelasyon mevcuttur. Tanedeki yağ oranı arttıkça kabuk oranı düşer. İyi bir yağlık ayçiçeği hibrit çeşidin tanesindeki yağ oranı %50'nin üzerinde ve kabuk oranı ise, %20 civarında olmalıdır. Şekil 1. Türkiye’de 2020/2021 sezonunda illere göre ayçiçeği üretim yüzdeleri. Gerek yağlık gerekse çerezlik taneler, yüksek oranda lif (ham selüloz) ve düşük miktarlarda da ham yağ ile kül içerir. Kabuktaki selüloz, lignin, hemi-selüloz miktarları %74-90 olup, geriye kalan kısmı da lipit, protein ve mineral maddelerden ibarettir. Doty (1978) tarafından bildirildiği üzere, ayçiçeği gerek tanesinin tümü gerekse sadece kabuğu, herhangi bir kimyasal maddeyle işlem görmediği sürece, zararlı bir şey içermez. Ancak yakılma işlemi sırasında çıkardığı atmosfere karışan CO2 ve diğer gazlar, tıpkı diğer yakacak ürünlerinin kullanılmasında olduğu gibidir. Ancak bu ek ürün olarak ortaya çıkan kabuğun, alternatif kullanım alanları da mevcuttur. Ayrıca çerezlik ayçiçeğinde kabuksuz tüketimde ek madde olarak ortaya çıkar. Ancak bu tür tüketim ülkemizde çok yaygın değildir. Kabuk oranı çerezlik ayçiçeği çeşitlerinde yağlıklara nazaran daha fazladır. Yağlık ayçiçeği kabukları çerezlik tiplere nazaran daha yüksek oranda protein ve yağ içerdikleri için, hayvanlar açısından iyi bir yem kaynağı olabilir. Ayçiçeği kabukları büyükbaş hayvan yetiştiriciliğinde saman yerine altlık olarak da kullanılabilir. Çünkü saman ile aynı oranda sıvı emme kapasitesine sahiptir. Ayrıca bu kabuklar kereste endüstrisinde dolgu ve yalıtım maddesi, biyolojik yakıt elde edilmesinde 329 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ve paketleme materyali olarak da kullanımı mümkündür. Ayrıca, Kanada'da silindir şeklinde preslenerek çıra malzemesi ve Rusya'da da etil alkol ve boya malzemesi elde edilmesinde yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Yapılan bir proje çalışmasında kâğıt elde edilmesinde kullanılamayacak kadar iri olan parçalardan oluşan ayçiçeği kabuklarının kurşun içeren atık suları temizlemek için kullanıldığı bildirilmiştir (Anonim, 2023a). Görüldüğü gibi ayçiçeği kabuğu kerestecilik dahil çok çeşitli alanlarda kullanılabilmektedir. Ancak ülkemizde genellikle yakılarak yok edilme yöntemi uygulanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, ayçiçeği kabuğunun kompost ve/veya vermikompost değerinin olup olmaması da değerlendirilecektir.Yakın geçmişe kadar tarımsal üretimde en çok tercih edilen ahır gübresinin yabancı ot kontrolünde problemlere sebep olması ve hijyenik olmaması gibi problemlerin ortaya çıkmasıyla, 1970’li yıllardan itibaren bilim insanlarının uğraşlarıyla solucanlar kullanılarak ahır gübreleri özel işlemlerden geçirilmiş ve etkisi çok yönlü olan bir yandan bitki besin maddeleri içeren bir yandan toprak ıslah maddesi olarak kullanılan vermikompost ortaya çıkmıştır (Bellitürk, 2017). Kimyasal gübrelerin yerini almak veya kullanımını önemli ölçüde azaltmak için organik gübrelerin kullanılması, sürdürülebilir mahsul üretiminin kalitesinde ve performansında bir artışa yol açar. Vermikompost ve bitki gelişimini teşvik eden bakteriler gibi organik gübrelerin ve biyogübrelerin tarım alanlarında kullanılması, kimyasal gübre uygulamalarının azalmasına neden olmuş ve insan sağlığını tehdit eden kimyasallardan arınmış yüksek kaliteli ürünler elde edilmiştir (Darzi ve ark., 2015). Mevcut organik gübrelerle, kimyasal gübre kullanımı yapmadan, yüksek seviyede verim elde etmek çok zordur. Fakat toprağın sürdürülebilir kullanımı açısından, verimlilik ve devamlılığın organik gübreyle sağlanacağı göz ardı edilmemelidir. Toprağın dengesini bozmadan, durumunun iyileşmesini sağlayacak faktörlerden birisi de vermikompost olarak adlandırılan solucan gübresidir. Solucanlar, sindirim sistemlerinde üretmiş oldukları antibiyotik özellikli maddeleri, aminoasitleri ve vitaminleri dışkılarına karıştırırlar ve oluşan gübrenin biyolojik yapısını iyileştirmektedirler. Ayrıca bileşimlerinde humik ve fulvik asit gibi bitkilerin beslenmesi için önemli derecede etkili olan büyüme düzenleyici maddeler bulunmaktadır. Birçok bitki için faydalı bir materyal olan solucan gübresi, ayrıca değerli bir toprak düzenleyicidir. Solucan gübresinin, ticari gübre olarak üretimi yapılarak çiftçilerin hizmetine sunulması için özel üretim yerlerine ihtiyaç bulunmaktadır. Organik atıkların çürütülmesi veya çiftlik gübresi gibi organik 3 maddelerin kullanılmasıyla solucan gübresi elde edilmektedir (Demir ve ark., 2010; Sarıoğlu ve Doğan, 2018). 330 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Küresel ısınma gibi nedenlere bağlı doğanın ve iklimlerin değişmesi neticesinde, tarım toprakları, bitki büyümesindeki etkili olan bitki besin elementlerini tutamaz hale gelmiş ve verimsizleşme sürecine girmiştir. Toprakların bilinçsizce kullanımı sebebi ile toprak organik maddesinin gün geçtikçe azalması ile %1 seviyesinin altına inmiştir. Toprak organik maddesini artırmak için kimyasal gübre kullanımı tek başına yeterli değildir. Toprakta organik madde miktarını arttırmak için solucan gübresi, çöp kompostu, yarasa gübresi, yeşil gübre, termofilik kompost vb. gübrelerin takviyesi ile sürdürülebilir tarım yapmak mümkündür. Organik gübreler içinde ise yıldızı giderek parlayan vermikompostun iyi bilinmesi hem üretiminin hem de tarımda kullanımının yaygınlaştırılması gerekmektedir (Bellitürk, 2016). Genel bir kural olarak hayvansal ve bitkisel atıkların karışımıyla beslenen solucanlardan elde edilen vermikompostun daha iyi kaliteli bir organik gübre olduğu belirtilmektedir (Bellitürk, 2017). Bu araştırmada, çerezlik ayçiçeği kabuklarının farklı oranlarda inek gübresi ile karıştırılması neticesinde elde edilen materyalin Eisenia fetida cinsi solucanlara mama olarak yedirilmesi neticesinde organik gübre olarak bilinen vermikompost üretilmiştir. Üretilen bu vermikompostun bazı fiziksel ve kimyasal analizleri yapılarak, gübre değeri ile birlikte organik atıkların tarımsal amaçlı olarak geri dönüşümüne ilişkin bilimsel değerlendirmeler yapılmıştır. 1.1. Ayçiçeği Kabuğunun İçeriği ve Değerlendirilme Yöntemleri Ayçiçeği kabuğu bütün bitkilerde olduğu gibi taneyi kaplar ve çevresel etmenlerden korur. Yağlık ayçiçeği tanesinin ağırlığının yaklaşık %21-30'u kabuktan oluşmaktadır. Çerezlik çeşitlerde bu oran %36-50 arasında değişir. Kabuktaki selüloz, lignin, hemi-selüloz (çoğunluğu glucuronoxylan) miktarları %74-90 olup geriye kalan kısmı da lipit, protein ve mineral maddelerdir (Dorrel ve Vick, 1997). Çizelge 1. Ayçiçeği kabuğunun besin maddesi kapsamının yüzde değerleri (Park ve ark.,1997). Ayçiçeği Kabuğunun Besin Maddesi Kapsamı Kuru Madde % 85-92 Ham Protein % 3.5-9 Sindirilebilir Protein % 2-4 Sindirilebilir Besin Maddesi Toplamı % 35-45 Ham Selüloz % 40-50 Lignin % 13-16 Kül % 2-3 Yağ % 0.05-3 Ca % 0.37 Mg % 0.15-0.25 P % 0.12 331 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Yapılan araştırmalarda ülkemizde ayçiçeği işleyen bazı fabrikalarda kabuk tamamen küspe eldesinde kullanılırken bazı fabrikalarda da özellikle yüksek proteinli küspe elde edilmek istendiğinde, yaklaşık %7-12 aralığında bir ek ürün olarak çıkmakta, bu durumda da ısıtma kazanlarda enerji ihtiyacını karşılamak için kömür ile karıştırılarak yakılmaktadır (Kaya, 2024). Ayçiçeği gerek tanesinin hepsi gerekse yalnızca kabuğu, herhangi bir kimyasal maddeyle işlem yapılmadığı müddetçe, zararlı bir madde içermez. Ancak yakılma işlemi esnasında çıkardığı, atmosfere karışan karbondioksit ve diğer gazlar, aynen diğer yakacak ürünlerinin kullanılmasında olduğu gibidir. Ancak bu ek ürün olarak ortaya çıkan kabuğun, alternatif kullanım alanları da mevcuttur. Ayrıca çerezlik ayçiçeğinde kabuksuz tüketimde ek madde olarak ortaya çıkar. Fakat bu tür tüketim şekli ülkemizde çok yaygın değildir. Kabuk oranı çerezlik ayçiçeği çeşitlerinde yağlıklara göre daha fazla olmaktadır. Yağlık ayçiçeği kabukları çerezlik tiplere kıyasla daha yüksek oranda protein ve yağ içerdiklerinden dolayı hayvanlar için iyi bir yem maddesidir. Ayçiçeği kabukları sığır yetiştiriciliğinde saman yerine altlık olarak kullanılabilir. Çünkü saman ile aynı oranda sıvı absorbe kapasitesine sahiptir. Ayrıca bu kabuklar kereste endüstrisinde dolgu ve yalıtım maddesi, biyolojik yakıt eldesinde ve paketleme materyali olarak da kullanılmaktadır. Ayrıca, Kanada'da silindir şeklinde preslenerek çıra malzemesi ve Rusya'da da etil alkol ve boya malzemesi eldesinde kullanılır (Doty, 1978).Ayçiçeği kabuğunun bir diğer kullanım alanı da özellikle bazı türlerin kabuğunda içerdiği antociyanin olarak bilinen kırmızı boya maddesi sebebiyle gıdalarda doğal katkılı boya olarak kullanılmasıdır. Bilindiği üzere gıda sektöründe kullanılan sentetik renklendiricilerin yan etkileri üzerine, kırmızı ve pembe renk veren doğal antociyanin kaynakları oldukça önemli olmuştur. Yine yapılan araştırmalarda, dana ve sığır besiciliğinde %50’ye kadar ayçiçeği kabuğu içeren ancak en az %15 ham protein içeren rasyonlarda herhangi bir beslenme bozukluğu görülmemiştir. Ancak yine %50 ayçiçeği kabuğu, %50 üre katkılı mısır silajı ve 1,4 kg/baş arpa tanesi içeren rasyonlarda, hazım zorluğu sebebiyle beslenme periyodu boyunca meydana gelen bazı sığır ölümleri görülmüştür (Park ve ark.,1997). Bu nedenle aynı araştırıcılar, herhangi beslenme veya hazım problemi ile karşılaşmamak için besicilikte %30, süt besi rasyonlarında ise ayçiçeği kabuğu katkısının % 10'u geçmemesi gerektiğini belirtmişlerdir. Ayçiçeği kabuğu yüksek oranda selüloz içerir ancak düşük bir besin maddesi kapsamına sahiptir ve sindirimi zor ve tadı güzel değildir. Yine pelet haline getirilmiş ayçiçeği kabuğu briket haline getirilmiş saptan daha yüksek ısı içeriğine sahiptir. Ancak bu pelet haline getirilmiş kabuğun yanma sırasındaki aşırı ısınmayı ve fazla dumanı önleyen yeterli hava alım hızı düşüktür. Peletlerin ortalama yanma randımanı %62'dir. Kül oranı ve külün diğer 332 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal özellikleri odundan farklı değildir. Ancak sap briketinin kül oranı %10,8 iken kabuk peletlerinin ise %3,6'dır (Park ve ark., 1997). Yine ayçiçeği kabuğunun yakıt değeri 8300 - 8500 BTU / pound civarında değişmektedir. ABD’de ayçiçeği işleme tesisleri, okullar gibi bazı kuruluşlar, elde ettikleri bu kabukları fırınlarda yakacak olarak kullanmaktadır. Yine ayçiçeği kabuğundan yapılan briketlerin, ABD’de bazı yerlerde şöminelerde kömür yerine kullanımı oldukça yaygındır (Lilleboe, 1991). ABD’de, ayçiçeği işleyen fabrikaların nakliye maliyetlerinde ayçiçeği kabuğunun belirli bir boyut teşkil ettiğinden, genelde kabuğunun çıkartılması daha tasarruflu olmakta ve ayçiçeği kabuğu yakılarak ısı enerjisi elde edilmesi de tesislere artı bir değer getirmektedir. Ancak fırınlarda yakılması sırasında kabukların fazla miktarda kül bırakması olumsuz bir sonuçtur. Yine bu tür tesislerin yakınlarına kurulan tavukçuluk ve hayvancılık tesislerinde ayçiçeği kabukları hayvanların altlarına serilmektedir (Kaya, 2024). Ayçiçeği kabukları tonu 30$’a kadar alıcı bulmaktadır (Dorrel ve Vick, 1997). Ayçiçeği kabuğunun değerlendirilmesi konusunda birçok araştırmalar yapılmasına rağmen çok az bir kısmı uygulamaya sokulmuştur. Ligno-selülozik bir madde olarak ayçiçeği kabuğu, fermentasyon yoluyla şeker üretiminde, bazı kimyasallara ve değerli bileşiklere dönüşümde oldukça ekonomik bir kaynaktır. Örneğin ayçiçeği kabuğunun asit veya celulase enzimleriyle hidrolizi, kabukta şeker oranını arttırarak besi değerinin artmasına ve yine maya için gerekli maddelerin oluşumuna yol açmaktadır. Ayçiçeği kabuğunun hücre duvarlarında karbonhidratlarla birlikte bulunan lignin maddesi, enzimlerin bu karbonhidratları şekerlere dönüştürmesini sınırlandırmaktadır. Ancak kabukların sodyum hidroksit ile 1,5 saat 120 ºC de muamelesi lignin maddesinin %55 oranında azalmasına ve %39 oranına kadar polisakkaritlerin şekerlere dönüşmesine yol açmaktadır (Kaya, 2024).Ayçiçeği, altı kıtada yetiştirilen ve toplam üretimi 54,42 milyon ton olan bir bitkidir. Türkiye'de 728 bin hektar alanda 2 milyon ton ayçiçeği tohumu üretilmektedir (Anonim, 2024b). Ayçiçeği üretiminin %40-65'ini oluşturan ayçiçeği kabuğu, tarımsal bir yan üründür (Perea-Moreno ve ark., 2018). Ayçiçeği kabuğunun geri kazanımında başlıca yöntemler, yakıt amaçlı ayçiçeği kabuğundan pelet üretimi ve kıyılmış olarak samanın yerine hayvan yeminde kullanılması karşımıza çıkmaktadır (Binboğa, 2019; Bala-Litwiniak, 2020). 1.2.İnek Gübresi ile İlgili Yapılan Çalışmalar Köse (1998), 1996-1997 yıllarında mineral gübrelemeye alternatif olarak organik gübrelemenin (mikoriza, kompost ve ahır gübresi) biber bitkisinin besin elementi alımı üzerindeki etkilerini 333 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal araştırmak üzere, Çukurova Bölgesinde 2 yıl boyunca yaptığı çalışmasında her iki yılda da mikorizal inokülasyon, kompost ve ahır gübresi uygulamasının, mineral gübreleme ve kontrole göre yaklaşık 2 kat daha fazla artış sağladığını belirtmiş, biber veriminin ilk yılda kompost, ikinci yılda ise mikoriza parsellerinde yüksek olduğunu belirtmiştir. Besin elementi içerikleri yönünden ise kompost, mikoriza ve ahır gübresi uygulanmış parsellerde P, Mn, Cu, Fe ve Zn, içeriklerinin mineral gübre uygulamasına göre genelde daha yüksek olduğunu bulmuştur. Camberato ve ark. (1996) tarafından ahır gübresinin arazide uygulanması üzerine yapılan bir çalışmada, katı gübrenin gereken önlemler alınmadan ve yağmur suyu ile yıkanmaya maruz bırakılmış bir şekilde depolandığında, gübre içinde bulunan N ve K2O miktarının azalmasına neden olduğunu bulmuşlardır. Ayrıca yanlış depolanan gübreden N’in süzülmesinin yüzey ve yeraltı sularında kirliliğe sebep olduğunu, bundan dolayı işlenmek ve araziye uygulanmak üzere depolanan gübrenin gerekli önlemler alınarak korunması gerektiğini belirtmişlerdir. Karaman (2005), tarafından Tokat yöresinde hayvancılık işletmelerindeki barınaklardan kaynaklanan çevresel etkiler ve ilgili yapıların özelliklerini incelemek, yeterliklerini ve geliştirilebilme olanaklarını saptamak amacı ile farklı yapı ve teknik özelliklere sahip değişik kapasiteli ahırlara sahip 76 işletmede yapılan çalışmada, işletmelerin %87’sinde katı atıklar tarım alanlarına serilerek, %5’inde komşu çiftliklere verilerek, %7’inde satılarak değerlendirilmektedir. Gübreliği bulunmayan işletmelerin %98’inde gübre araziye yığılmaktadır. Gübre bu işletmelerin %3’ünde taş döşeme üzerine, diğerlerinde toprak zemine yığılmakta, iki işletmede ise doğrudan nehre boşaltılmaktadır. Elde edilen gübrenin değerlendirme şekli bakımından 1-5 baş hayvanı olan tesislerin %15 inde gübrenin tezek olarak kullanıldığı, %45’inin kendi arazisinde biriktirdiği, %28’inin sattığı, %12’sinin ise yol kenarları veya boş alanlara rastgele attığı, 6-10 baş hayvana sahip işletmelerde ise %45’inin sattığı, %33’ünün kendi arazisinde biriktirdiği, %2’sinin boş araziye attığı, 11 baş ve üstü işletmelerde ise %40’ının kendi arazisinde biriktirdiği, %60’ının sattığı saptanmıştır. Gübrenin bekletilme süresi ise tüm gruplarda 2 ay ile 1 yıl arasında olduğu belirlenmiştir.Son yıllarda hayvan gübresine uygulanan işlemlerle (havalandırma, biogaz üretimi, kompost yapma ve kurutma) çevreye daha az zarar vermesi ve tarlada organik gübre olarak daha etkin olması olanakları oluşturulmaktadır. Nitekim belirtilen işlemlerle çevreye yayılan pis koku azaltılmakta, hastalık etkenleri öldürülmekte, atık madde, hidrojen içeriği belirli düzeyde tutulmakta veya düşürülmekte, gübre ağırlığı ve hacmi bakımından anlamlı bir azalma sağlanmaktadır (Ergül, 1989). Hayvansal üretim hem insan beslenmesinin gereklerinden hem de tarımın vazgeçilmezlerindendir. Fakat yapılan her tarımsal faaliyet gibi hayvansal üretimde çevre kirliliğine neden olmaktadır. 334 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Hayvansal üretim sonucu ortaya çıkan gübre ve idrar atıkları, gaz, koku, toz, ölen hayvanların cesetleri, kesimhane atıkları çevreye ve insana zarar oluşturabilmektedir. Hayvansal üretim sonucu çevreye olumsuz etkisi olan başlıca etmenler aşağıda ifade edilmiştir. Hayvancılık faaliyetine bağlı olan çevre kirliliğinde başlıca atıklar hayvanlardan doğrudan kaynaklanan sıvı (idrar) ve katı (gübre) atıklardır. Bu atıklar işletmelerde kaldırılmalı, depolandıktan belli bir zaman sonra tarım arazilerinde kullanılmaktadır (Parlakay ve ark., 2015). 1.3. Kompost ve Vermikompost İle İlgili Yapılan Çalışmalar Geleneksel tarım yöntemi daha fazla ürün elde etme esasına dayanır. Yapılan çalışmalar göstermiştir ki; bu anlayışla gerek gübrelerin gerekse tarımsal ilaçların bilinçsizce kullanımı, bitkisel üretimde miktar artışının yanında kalitesiz ve insan sağlığını tehdit edecek ürünlerin ortaya çıkmasına neden olmaktadır. Sanayileşmeden kaynaklanan çevre kirliliğinin de etkisiyle soframıza gelen tarımsal ürünlerin doğallığı ve güvenilirliği neredeyse kalmamıştır. Son yıllarda günümüz tarımında kullanılan kimyasal ilaçların ve gübrelerin neden olduğu çevre kirliliği ve bu kirlenmenin insan sağlığı üzerindeki etkileri yoğun bir biçimde tartışılmaktadır (Bellitürk, 2005; Bellitürk, 2008; Bellitürk ve ark., 2015; Shrestha ve ark., 2019). Hızlı nüfus artışı, plansız kentleşme, plansız endüstrileşme, doğal kaynakların ölçüsüz kullanılması kirliliğin en önemli faktörleridir. Doğal çevreyi oluşturan toprak, su ve havanın kimyasal özelliklerinin canlıların hayati faaliyetlerini ve aktivitelerini olumsuz yönde etkileyecek biçimde bozulması “kimyasal kirlenme”dir. Çevremizde ne kadar çok kimyasal madde varsa sağlığımız o ölçüde tehlikeye girmektedir. Çeşitli fabrika katı ve sıvı atıklarının verimli tarım arazilerine veya akarsu ve nehirlere boşaltılması söz konusu tarım topraklarının, akarsu ve göllerinin zararlı ağır metallerle kirlenerek kimyasal kirlenmeye maruz kaldığını gösterir (Özsavaş, 2015). İnsan sağlığını etkileyen tüm ekosistem düşünüldüğünde çevre kirliliğinin hava, toprak ve su kirliliği olarak üçlü bir kombinasyonda ele alınarak yapılacak çalışmaların bu doğrultuda ele alınması gerekir (Çağlarırmak ve Hepçimen, 2010). Sürekli artan dünya nüfusu ile ters orantılı olarak tarım topraklarının azalması insanoğlunu açlık gibi büyük bir tehditle karşı karşıya getirmiştir. Artan besin ihtiyacımızı karşılamak amacıyla, tarımsal uygulamalarda bilinçsizce kullanılan kimyasal gübre ve kimyasal ilaçlar, tarım topraklarımızın sürdürülebilir verimliliğini olumsuz etkilemekle birlikte doğal dengeyi de bozmaya başlamıştır. Bu sorunlar karşısında tarımı sadece topraktan yararlanarak her türlü kimyasal gübre ve ilacı kullanarak üretim yapmak yerine, doğaya zarar vermeden, toprağın sürdürülebilir verimliliğini 335 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ve doğal dengeyi koruyarak, insan sağlığını tehdit etmeyen, çevreyle dost olan organik ürünlerin kullanımını hedefleyen tarımsal üretim sistemlerini uygulanmalıdır. Organik gübreler; hayvan atıklarından ve benzer doğal yollarla oluşan maddelerden üretilerek, hiçbir kimyasal madde ile etkileşim içerisinde olmadan elde edilir. Bunun en güzel örneklerinden birisi solucan gübresidir. Vermikompost, belirli bir solucan türü kullanılarak, organik atık ve artıkların kısa sürede elde edilen yüksek kaliteli bir biyoteknolojik kompost çeşitidir. Ticari ve ekolojik açıdan yüksek değere sahip ürünler elde ettiğimiz vermikompost tekniği yoğun olarak tüm dünyada uygulanmaktadır. Ürün kalitesi olarak termofilik kompost ürünlerine göre vermikompost ürünleri fiziksel, kimyasal ve biyolojik özellikleriyle daha üstün niteliktedir ve ekonomiktir. Son ürününde vermikompostun insan sağlığını tehdit edecek patojenler olmadığı için uygulayıcılar vermikomposta çıplak elle dokunabilir (Erşahin Yılmaz, 2007). Bellitürk ve ark. (2018)’nın bildirdiğine göre, Türkiye’de son yıllarda zeytin bahçelerinin gübrelenmesinde kullanılan kimyasal gübrelere ilaveten vermikompost, çöp kompostu, yosun gübresi gibi organik gübrelerin de ilave edilmesi, bu konuya verilen önemin farklı bir göstergesidir. Kimyasal gübrelerle yapılacak gübrelemenin etkinlik derecesi, diğer faktörlerin yanında toprağın organik madde içeriği ile pH değerine de bağlı bulunmaktadır. Zeytin yetiştiriciliğinde tam başarının sağlanabilmesi için belli esaslara dayalı olarak kimyasal gübrelerin organik gübreler ile desteklenmesi gerekmektedir (Bellitürk ve ark., 2015). Vermikompost tek başına iyi bir organik gübre olmasının yanında, kimyasal gübreler ile birlikte kullanıldığında hem kimyasal gübrenin etkinliğini artırmakta ve hem de miktarının azalmasına sebep olarak üretim maliyetlerinin azalmasına sebep olmaktadır. Bunun dışında vermikompost çevreyle dost ve üretilen ürünlerin kalitesinin artırılmasına büyük katkı sağlayan organik tarımda kullanımı kabul edilen iyi bir organik gübredir. Solucanların kullanılmasıyla kompost elde edilmesi, açık alanlarda basit yığınlarda, kasalarda ya da otomasyonlu kompleks kapalı sistemlerde gerçekleştirilmektedir (Edwards, 2004). Üretimde yararlanılan solucanların optimum koşullarda yaşatılması, vermikompost verimliliğini ve kalitesini etkileyen en önemli faktörlerdendir (Neuhauser ve ark., 1998). Üretim aşamasındaki vermikompost için pH, sıcaklık, ışık, koku, nem, karbondioksit, oksijen, yatakların derinliği gibi parametrelere dikkat edildiği durumda, kaliteli bir solucan gübresi elde edilebilir ve solucan kültürünün sürdürülebilirliği sağlanır (Li, 2011). 336 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 2. Solucanın morfolojik yapısı ve vücut anatomisi. Vermikompost için belirlenen kalite parametreleri yüksek tuz içeriği halinde bitkide toksik etkiye neden olur, besin değerinin belirlenmesi durumunda Ca, Mg, SveB elementlerinin önemli olduğu belirtilmektedir (Hepşen Türkay, 2016). Vermikompost içeriğinde bulunanbesin elementlerinin %97’ si ve özellikle N, P ve K gibi besin elementleri büyüme esnasında bitki tarafından doğrudan alnabilir formdadır (Barley, 1961). (Bellitürk ve ark., 2015; Bellitürk, 2018; Aslam ve ark., 2020; Aslam ve ark., 2021a; Aslam ve ark., 2021b; Kılbacak ve ark., 2021; Koç ve ark., 2021). Vermikompost üretiminde birçok bitkisel ve hayvansal atık kullanıldığı bilinmektedir (Bellitürk ve ark., 2014; Bellitürk, 2016). Çeşitli organik atıklar kullanarak vermikompostlar elde ederek solucanlara verilen besin maddesinin vermikompost içeriği üzerine etkisinin önemli olduğunu belirtmiştir. Solucanlara verilen besin maddesi haricinde, vermikompostun üretildiği ortam şartları ve solucan türü de önemli faktörler arasındadır (Bellitürk, 2016). Zaller (2007) yaptığı bir çalışmada, Eisenia fetida türü solucanlara pamuk ve yemek artıkları verilerek üretilmiş olan vermikompostu, torf ile %0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 (v/v) oranları ile karıştırmıştır. Sera koşullarında yapılan çalışmada, domates (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) tohumlarının çimlenmesine, büyüme ve biyokütleye olan etkisine, araziye aktarılmış olan fidelerin domates verimi ve kalitesi, domates çeşitleri arasındaki etkiler değerlendirilmiştir. Vermikompost etkisi, domates çeşitlerinin tamamında çimlenme ve fide gelişimini önemli derecede etkilemiştir. Amerika Birleşik Devletleri, Çek Cumhuriyeti ve Japonya gibi ülkelerde yapılan vermikompost uygulaması sonucunda buğday veriminde %1520, patates veriminde %50-80, yaprakları yenen pancar veriminde %15-20, mısır veriminde %30-50, hıyar, domates ve biber verimlerinde %20-30, üzüm ve şeftali verimlerinde %80-100, çilek veriminde %30-35 oranında artışlar olduğu tespit edilmiştir (Anonim, 2013). 337 VI.

Bu amaçla proje bütçesi ile alınan seyyar termometreler kullanılmıştır. Deneme süresince, kaplar içerisinde azalan nem oranı, %70 civarına getirilerek saf su ile tamamlanmıştır. 2.2. Yöntem 2.2.1. Yapılan Fiziksel ve Kimyasal Analiz Yöntemleri Deneme başlangıcında çerezlik ayçiçeği atığı (SW) ile inek gübresi (CM) numunelerinin ayrı ayrı olacak şekilde (fermente edildikten sonra) bazı analizleri (pH, organik madde, N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Zn, Cu) yapılmıştır. Projeye ilişkin deneme sonrasında elde edilen olan vermikompost örneklerinde yapılan analizlere ilişkin detaylı bilgiler aşağıdaki şekildedir: pH: TS 9104’e göre 3 g kompost örneği üzerine 50 ml saf su konularak yarım saat beklenir ve pH metre cihazı ile belirlenmiştir (TSE, 1991). Nem: Örnekler 60oC’de 24 h bekletilerek nem değerleri belirlenmiştir (Sağlam, 2012). Organik Madde: TS 9103’e göre 5 g kompost örneği kül fırınında 650 C°’de 4 saat yakılarak gravimetrik olarak belirlenmiştir (TSE, 1991). Toplam Azot: Makro Kjeldahl Metodu ile belirlenmiştir (Kacar ve İnal, 2008; Sağlam, 2012). Yarayışlı Diğer Makro (P, K, Ca, Mg) ve Mikro (Fe, Zn, Cu) Element Analizleri: Kompost örnekleri H2O2 + HNO3 ile mikro dalga yakma cihazında yakılıp elde edilen süzükte ICP-OES cihazı ile belirlenmiştir (Zarcinas ve ark., 1987). 3.

Dominguez ve Edwards (2011)’e göre ideal bir vermikompostun pH değerinin 5 ve 9 arasında olması gerekmektedir. Deneme sonunda elde edilen SW100CM0 haricindeki tüm örneklerin ortalama değerlerinin izin verilen değerler arasında olduğu görülmektedir. Organik gübrelerden özellikle vermikompost gübresinin pH değerinin 7.5 değerinin üzerinde olduğu bildirilmektedir (Edwards, 2004; Bellitürk, 2017). Bu projede pH değeri açısından 7.5 değerine en yakın sonuç “SW0CM100” uygulamasından elde edilmiştir.Deneme sonunda vermikompost örneklerinde, en yüksek ve en düşük tuz 344 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal değerlerinin sırası ile %0,83 ve %0.55 olarak ölçülmüştür. Tüm örneklerin ortalaması ise %0.66 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Vermikompost örneklerinin tuz içerikleri %1 değerinin altında bulunmuştur. Bellitürk ve Soytürk (2020) fındık kabuğu ve inek dışkısından elde ederek ürettiği vermikompost çalışmasında en düşük %0.02 ve en yüksek %0.3 tuz değerini elde etmişlerdir. Dolayısıyla yapılan bu çalışma ile vermikompost örneklerinin tuz içerikleri açısından benzerlik olduğu anlaşılmaktadır.Deneme sonunda vermikompost örneklerindeki tekerrür ortalamalarının değerleri dikkate alındığında en yüksek organik madde içeriği SW 75CM25 uygulamasında %85.08 olup en düşük organik madde içeriği ise SW0CM100 uygulamasında %79,30 olarak belirlenmiştir. Tarımda kullanılan organik ve mineral içerikli gübrelere dair yönetmelik taslağındaki değerlere göre vermikompostun en az %20 düzeyinde organik madde içermesi gerekmektedir (Anonim, 2024a). Bu durumda proje kapsamındaki denemeden elde edilen tüm vermikompost örneklerinin ilgili yönetmeliğe uygun olduğu görülmektedir. Bellitürk ve Soytürk (2020) tarafından fındık kabuğu ile yapılan benzer bir çalışmada en yüksek organik madde miktarı %41,11 olarak bulunmuştur. Dolayısıyla her iki çalışma karşılaştırıldığında, ayçiçeği atıklarının fındık kabuğu atıklarına göre vermikompostun organik madde içeriğini daha fazla artırdığı görülmüştür. Bu durumda vermikompost üreticileri solucanları beslemek için rahatlıkla ayçiçeği kabuğunu kullanabilir ve yüksek organik maddeli vermikompost üretebilirler.Çalışma sonucu elde edilen vermikompostlarda SW100CM0’nin nem oranı yaklaşık %35, diğer örneklerin ise %60-66 aralığında nem oranı çıkmıştır. Fakat Tarımda kullanılan organik ve mineral içerikli gübrelere dair yönetmelik taslağındaki değerlere göre vermikompostun nem değeri maksimum %35 olmalıdır (Anonim, 2024a). Bu sebeple ayçiçeği atıkları ile yapılan vermikompost çalışmalarından elde edilen ürünlerin nem miktarlarının ideal yüzdeye ulaşabilmesi için kurutulmaları gerektiği görülmüştür. Edwards (2004) tarafından bildirildiğine göre solucanların gübre üretirken en verimli olduğu nem değeri %70 civarında sabit tutulmalıdır. Ancak üretilen ve paketlenerek pazara gitmesi gereken organik gübrenin nem içeriği kurutma yöntemine göre düşürülmelidir. Bu projede üretilen gübre, pazarlanacak olsaydı nem içeriğinin düşürülmesi gerekirdi. Ancak bu derecede yüksek oranda nem içeriğine sahip vermikompost, satış amaçlı değil, araştırma amaçlıdır. Dolayısıyla araştırma sonucunda üretilen vermikompost, kurutma aşamasından geçmemiştir. 345 VI.

Üretilen vermikomposttaki pH, EC, nem ve organik madde içerikleri Elde edilen vermikompostlarda yapılan analizler sonucunda en yüksek azot içeriğinin %1,61 ortalama ile SW100CM0 uygulamasında, en düşük azot yüzdesinin ise %0,62 ortalama ile SW25CM75 uygulamasında olduğu görülmüştür. Bu sonuçlar, ayçiçeği atık oranı artıkça azot içeriğinin de arttığını göstermektedir Arancon ve Edwards (2011)’ın yaptığı bir çalışmaya göre inek gübresi vermikompostunun toplam %N değeri %1,9 olmalıdır. Organik atıklarla vermikompost üretiminde azot elementi hedef alındığında, bu atıkların başarılı bir şekilde kullanılabileceği görülmektedir. Bellitürk ve ark. (2015a) tarafından yapılan bir başka çalışmada kağıt atıkları ile inek gübresi karışımı kullanılmış olup, bu çalışmada 346 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal vermikompostun ortalama N değeri %1,11 olarak bulunmuştur. Lange (2005), gıda ve bahçe atıkları karışımı ile vermikompost üretmiş ve ortalama N değerini %1,81 olarak bulmuştur. Bu ve benzeri birçok çalışmada elde edilen vermikompost örneklerinin ortalama N düzeyi %1,0 civarında tespit edilmiş olup, bu değerin artmasının gübrenin kalitesini de artırdığı anlaşılmaktadır.

Deneme sonucunda elde edilen vermikompostların azot değerlerinin tümünün yönetmelikte geçen %0,5 oranını geçtiği görülmektedir. Bu da üretilen vermikompostların yönetmeliğe uygun olarak kullanıma uygun olduklarını göstermektedir. Yapılan vermikompost 347 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal çalışmasında elde edilen analiz sonuçlarına göre en yüksek fosfor miktarı ortalaması 136 mg/kg olarak SW100CM0 uygulamasında, en düşük fosfor miktarı ortalaması ise 63,25 mg/kg olarak SW75CM25 uygulamasında ölçülmüştür. Bellitürk ve Soytürk (2020) %90 fındık kabuğu+ %10 inek gübresi karışımından elde ettikleri karışımın vermikompostunda 126,28 mg/kg civarında bir P değeri elde etmişlerdir. Yani her iki çalışmanın da yüksek bitkisel atık+düşük miktarda hayvansal atık karışımlarına ait vermikompostta belirlenen P değeri açısından benzerlik taşıdığı görülmektedir. Vermikompost örneklerindeki Potasyum miktarları incelendiğinde; potasyum miktarı en yüksek olarak 488,90 mg/kg ortalama ile SW100CM0 uygulamasında, en düşük değer olarak da 133,15 mg/kg ortalama ile SW0CM100 uygulamasında bulunmuştur. Yapılan analiz sonuçları göz önüne alındığında vermikompost üretimimizdeki ayçiçek atık miktarı artıkça potasyum miktarı artmaktadır. Buradan da anlaşılacağı üzere ayçiçek atığı, vermikompost üretiminde potasyum miktarını artırmak için kullanılabilir. Lange (2005) tarafından yapılan benzer nitelikli başka bir çalışmada gıda+bahçe atığından elde edilen vermikompost örneklerindeki ortalama K miktarı %1,04 düzeyinde bulunmuştur. Arancon ve Edwards (2011) ise, inek gübresiyle besledikleri Eisenia fetida türü solucanların ürettiği vermikompostun K değerinin %1,4 civarında bulunduğunu ifade etmişlerdir. Bellitürk ve arkadaşları (2015a) tarafından kağıt+inek gübresi karışımından elde edilen atıklardan üretilen vermikompost örneklerinde elde edilen K değeri ise %0,32 düzeyinde bulunmuştur. Görüldüğü gibi atık türü değiştikçe elde edilen vermikompost örneklerindeki K değerindeki farklılık açık olarak göze çarpmaktadır. Analiz edilen vermikompost örneklerinin Ca ve Mg içerikleri incelendiğinde, en yüksek değerin K elementinde olduğu gibi SW100CM0 uygulamasında olduğu bulunmuştur. İnek gübresini solucanlara yem olarak veren Arancon ve Edwards (2011) tarafından yapılan benzer sayılabilecek nitelikteki bir çalışmadan elde edilen vermikompost örneklerinin Ca değeri 23,25 mg/kg, Mg değeri ise 5802 mg/kg olarak bulunmuştur. Ayçiçeği kabuğu+inek dışkısının yem olarak kullanıldığı bu çalışmadan elde edilen Ca ve Mg elementi için en yüksek değer sırasıyla “SW100CM0” uygulamasında 515,65 mg/kg ve 106,25 mg/kg olarak bulunmuştur. Mikro element içerikleri bakımından vermikompost örnekleri ele alındığında; yarayışlı Cu ve Fe içeriği söz konusu olduğunda en yüksek değerin SW0CM100 uygulamasında olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır. En yüksek yarayışlı Fe içeriği “SW0CM100” uygulamasında ve 30,10 mg/kg olarak bulunmuştur. Bu değere göre, ayçiçeği çekirdeği atığı, Fe içeriği üzerine fazla bir etki yapmamıştır. Lange (2005) tarafından yapılan başka bir çalışmada atık olarak gıda atıkları+bahçe atıkları karışımı kullanılmış olup, ortalama Fe değeri 1440 mg/kg olarak 348 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal bulunmuştur. Aynı çalışmada tespit edilen yarayışlı Zn değeri ise 387,2 mg/kg olup, Bellitürk ve ark. (2015a) tarafından kağıt atıkları+inek gübresi atıklarıyla beslenen solucanlardan elde edeline vermikompostun değeri 48,8 mg/kg olmuştur. Ayçiçeği atıklarının kullanıldığı bu çalışmadan elde edilen yarayışlı Zn için en yüksek değer SW100CM0 uygulamasında 2,50 mg/kg olarak tespit edilmiştir. Dolayısıyla burada inek gübresinden ziyade ayçiçeği atıklarının yarayışlı Zn üzerinde daha fazla etkili olduğu görülmektedir. Fındık kabukları ve inek dışkısının atık olarak kullanıldığı başka bir çalışmadan elde edilen ortalama yarayışlı Fe, Mn, Zn ve Cu içerikleri sırasıyla 482,71 mg/kg, 61,95 mg/kg, 40,41 mg/kg ve 19,73 mg/kg olarak bulunmuştur (Bellitürk ve Soytürk, 2020). Epigeic tür olan Eisenia fetida türü solucanların farkı organik atıkları yeme ve ürettiği vermikomposta elementel içerik açısından etki etme açısından gösterdiği tepkiler farklı olmakla birlikte, her koşulda bu atıkları rahatlıkla yedikleri görülmektedir (Lange, 2005; Bellitürk ve ark., 2015a; Arancon ve Edwards, 2011; Bellitürk ve Soytürk, 2020). Önemli olan sadece tek tip hayvansal veya sadece bitkisel atık değil, bu atıkları uygun oranlarda karıştırarak uygun koşul ve özellikteki yemler ile solucanları besleyerek vermikompost üretmektir (Bellitürk, 2016). Bu çalışmalar sayesinde hem organik atıklar solucan yemi olarak kullanılabilmekte ve hem de çeşitli makro ve mikro element ile organik madde düzeyine sahip topraklar üzerine olumlu etki etme özelliğinde vermikompost üretebilmektir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 3.2. Solucan ve Kokon Sayıları Deneme süresince kaplardaki solucanların firar ederek kaçması sorunu hiç yaşanmamış olup, solucanlar bu çalışmada kullanılan ayçiçeği atıklarını yeme konusunda pozitif davranış göstermişlerdir. Deneme sonrasında her kapta belirlenen solucan ve kokon sayıları Çizelge 4’te gösterilmiştir. Çizelge 4’ten de görüldüğü gibi başlangıçta (deneme kurulumunda) 20’şer adet Eisenia fetida cinsi solucanların deneme sonucundaki sayılarında her kapta farklılıklar olduğu görülmektedir. Genel bir değerlendirme ile en fazla solucan artışının 74 ortalama ile SW75CM25 uygulamasında (%75 ayçiçeği kabuğu+%25 inek dışkısı) olduğu görülmektedir. Solucanların ayçiçeği kabuğunu yemeleri ve sayıca artmaları, ayçiçeği kabuklarının ilerideki benzer nitelikli akademik çalışmalarda ve vermikompost (solucan gübresi) sektöründe atık olarak rahatlıkla kullanılabileceğini ortaya çıkarmıştır. Deneme sonundaki kokon (yumurta) sayısı açısından en fazla artışın SW100CM0 uygulamasında olduğu görülmektedir. Bu sonuçlar ile, ayçiçeği kabuğunun solucan sayısını artırmak için rahatlıkla kullanılabileceği ortaya çıkmıştır. Bellitürk ve Soytürk (2020) tarafından fındık kabuğu ile inek dışkısının kullanıldığı başka bir benzer çalışmada ise solucan sayılarında önemli bir değişiklik olmadığı bulunmuştur.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Bu solucanlar, atıklardan gübre üretme yanında, toprakları havalandırma görevleri açısından da önemli canlılardır. Özellikle killi ve su geçirgenliği düşük, yapışkan nitelikteki smektit türü killerce zengin topraklarda yaşanan havalanma problemi hem kök gelişmesini etkileyerek verim miktar ve kalitesini azalttığı için, bu tip topraklara nem sorunu yok ise solucan bırakılması oldukça faydalı çalışmalar sayılmaktadır. Bu çalışma sayesinde solucan üretme amacıyla ayçiçeği atıklarının solucanlara yem olarak verilebileceği ortaya çıkmıştır.

Deneme sonrasında belirlenen solucan ve kokon sayılarının grafik ile gösterimleri. 4. Sonuçlar ve Öneriler Ülkemizde bitkisel ve hayvansal kaynaklı olarak ortaya çıkan çok çeşitte ve yüksek miktarlarda organik atıklar bulunmaktadır. Ancak maalesef çoğunlukla bu organik atıklar, diğer atıklarla karışık olarak genellikle yerel yönetimler tarafından toplandığı için tam olarak geri dönüşüm açısından gübre niteliğinde değerlendirilememektedir. Bu projenin amaçları arasında, organik atıkların kompost veya vermikompost değerinin ortaya konulması yanında bu sektörde ticari faaliyet gösteren firmaların büyük sorunlarından bir tanesi olan solucan maması bulmalarına yardımcı olacak bilgileri üretmektir. Proje sonuçlarından da görüldüğü gibi özellikle çerezlik ayçiçeği atıklarının hem solucan sayısını artırmada hem de solucan maması olarak kullanılabilecek nitelikte olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır. Vermikompost üretiminde başarılı bir şekilde kullanılan Eisenia fetida türü solucanların sayılarının artırılması, vermikompost sektörüne yatırım yapan işletmeciler için oldukça önemlidir. Bunun dışında bu türdeki solucanların 351 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal çoğaltılıp ülkemizin nemli bölgelerindeki arazilerine bırakılması, toprak sağlığının korunması açısından da son derece önemlidir. Çerezlik ayçiçeği üreticileri bugüne kadar atıkları bazen hayvan yemi olarak kullanmakta ve bazen de yakacak olarak kullandıkları için tam olarak değerlendirememektedirler. Bu proje sayesinde bu atıkların kompost veya vermikompost yapımında kullanılabilirliğinin ortaya konulması, organik gübre üreticileri için önemli bir bilgi niteliğindedir. Çiftlik hayvanlarından inek dışkılarının da tam olarak kompost yapılamaması gibi sorunlar olduğu bilinmektedir. Ayrıca inek dışkıları doğru yöntemde kompost yapılmadan arazilere organik gübre olarak uygulandığında, yabancı ot problemleri ortaya çıkmaktadır. Bu proje ile inek dışkılarının vermikompost yapımında başarıyla kullanılabileceği bir kez daha ortaya konulmuş olup, çerezlik ayçiçeği atığı ile karıştırılarak kullanılması durumunda önemli avantajlar elde edildiği de ortaya konulmuştur. Organik atıkların değerlendirilmeleri ile ilgili önemli bilgilerin elde edildiği bu projelerin sayı ve nitelik olarak artırılması, döviz ile gübre girişi olan ülkemiz üreticilerinin “gübre girdi maliyetlerini” düşürerek tarımsal üretim yapmaları ve ayrıca kendi atıklarını gübreye dönüştürüp girdi maliyetlerini azaltmaları açısından da önem taşımaktadır. Daha önce zeytin budama atıkları, fındık kabuğu, saman, çim atıkları, üzüm çöpü, kâğıt atıkları, badem ve ceviz kabukları gibi bitkisel kökenli atıklarla yapılan benzer çalışmalarda da bitki besleme ve toprak bilimine katkı sağlayan bilgiler ortaya konulmuştur. Bu çalışma da önceki benzer çalışmalarda olduğu gibi çerezlik ayçiçeği atıklarının vermikomposta dönüştürülebileceğinin ortaya konulması açısından değerli bir kaynak olarak kullanılabilecek niteliktedir.

Üyesi Gül KADAN* (ORCID: 0000-0002-1430-8714) Çankırı Karatekin University, Faculty of Health Sciences Department of Child Development, Çankırı-Türkiye Email: gulkadan@gmail.com Özet Ölüm ve mutluluk birbirine hiç yakışmayacak iki kavram olarak değerlendirilebilir. Ancak her ne kadar durum bu yönde olsa da bazı durumlar ve şartlar ise bu iki kavramın birlikteliğini de beraberinde getirebilmektedir. Özellikle üniversitede öğrenim gören ve bir anlamda kendi hayatını şekillendirmeye çalışırken, diğer anlamda da bu duyguları yaşamış olan bireyler için bu durum daha karmaşık bir hal de alabilmektedir. Bu düşünceler altında araştırmada 6 Şubat’ta Türkiye’de yaşanan ve pek çok kişinin ölümü ile sonuçlanan Kahramanmaraş depremini yaşamış olan üniversite öğrencilerinin ölüm ve mutluluk algısının belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmada nitel ve nicel yöntemler birlikte kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın nicel boyutunda tarama yöntemi nitel boyutunda ise görüşme tekniği kullanılmıştır. Erzurum Atatürk Üniversitesi Fen Edebiyat Fakültesi bölümünde öğrenim gören ve Kahramanmaraş depreminde bölgede olan 300 üniversite öğrencisi ile çalışılmıştır. Araştırmada veriler “Genel Bilgi Formu”, “Yarı Yapılandırılmış Görüşme Formu” “Ölüm Algısı Ölçeği” ve “Mutluluğa Aşırı Değer Verme Ölçeği” ile toplanmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda, öğrencilerin depremden önce ve sonra ölüm ve mutluluk algılarında değişimler yaşandığı belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca ölümü direk olarak yaşayan öğrencilerde mutluluk algısının yok olduğu ve birtakım sorunların yaşandığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Araştırmada elde edilen bir diğer sonuç ise öğrencilerin depremde yakınlarını kaybetmemiş olsalar bile, ölümle ilgili eskiden düşündüklerinden daha farklı kavramlar elde ettikleridir. Araştırmadan elde edilen sonuçlara yönelik deprem gibi bir felaketi yaşayan ya da yaşamayan tüm öğrencilere psikososyal destek sağlanması ve bu öğrencilerin yakından takiplerinin gerçekleştirilmesi önerilebilir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Ölüm, Mutluluk, Üniversite öğrencisi, Deprem, Psikososyal destek Bu çalışmanın yapılmasında emeği olan ve aramızdan zamansız ve erken ayrılan Doç.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INVESTIGATION OF UNIVERSITY STUDENTS' PERCEPTIONS OF DEATH AND HAPPINESS AFTER KAHRAMANMARAŞ EARTHQUAKE Abstract Death and happiness can be considered as two concepts that do not suit each other at all. However, although this is the case, some situations and conditions may bring about the coexistence of these two concepts. This situation can become more complicated, especially for individuals who are studying at university and who, in one sense, are trying to shape their own lives and who, in another sense, have experienced these emotions. Under these considerations, the aim of the study was to determine the perception of death and happiness of university students who experienced the Kahramanmaraş earthquake in Turkey on February 6, which resulted in the death of many people. Qualitative and quantitative methods were used together in the research. Screening method was used in the quantitative dimension of the research and interview technique was used in the qualitative dimension. The study was conducted with 300 university students studying at Erzurum Atatürk University, Faculty of Arts and Sciences, and who were in the region during the Kahramanmaraş earthquake. In the research, data were collected with the "General Information Form", "Semi-structured Interview Form", "Death Perception Scale" and "Overvaluing Happiness Scale". As a result of the research, it was determined that there were changes in the students' perceptions of death and happiness before and after the earthquake. In addition, it was concluded that the perception of happiness disappeared in students who directly experienced death and some problems were experienced. Another result obtained in the research is that even if the students did not lose their relatives in the earthquake, they acquired different concepts about death than they used to think. Based on the results obtained from the research, it may be recommended to provide psychosocial support to all students, whether they have experienced a disaster such as an earthquake or not, and to closely monitor these students.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş İnsanoğlunun hayatı doğum ile başlayıp ölümle sona ermektedir. Ancak durum her ne kadar bu kadar basit bir şekilde ifade edilmeye çalışılsa da aslında durumun bu kadar basit olmadığı da görülmektedir. Genellikle yenidünyaya gelme eylemi olarak ifade edilen doğum mutluluğun başlangıcı olarak da ifade edilebilmektedir. Durumun bu boyutta olması ise insanın sürekli bir mutluluk ve üzüntü duygu durumlarını yaşamalarına da yol açabilmektedir. Üstelik bu duygu durumları sanıldığından daha da farklı bir boyut alabilmektedir. Ölüm ise herkesin uzak durmaya çalıştığı adı bile anıldığında kişileri mutsuz etmeye yetecek özellikleri bünyesinde barındırabilen bir duygu durumu olarak da ifade edilebilir (Alver, 2017; Çetin, 2017; Kim, 2013; Lee vd., 2015; Testoni vd., 2019; Türkdoğan ve Duru, 2012). Bu kapsamda ölüm ve mutluluk birbirinden uzak olsa da bir o kadar da günlük yaşamda karşılaşılabilecek olgular olarak ele alınabilir.Ölüm hayatın sonu olarak düşünüldüğünden ve bu yöndeki beklentilerden dolayı genellikle pek düşünülmeyen bir olgudur. Daha doğrusu belirli bir yaş grubuna ithaf edilen bir durum olarak görülmektedir. Aslında ölümün o kadar da uzak olmadığı da aşikârdır. Toplumlarda yaşanan birtakım olay ve olgular ölümle birlikteliği daha da erken gündeme getirebilmektedir. Üstelik insanın kendisi yaşamasa da etrafında karşılaşabileceği bu tür durumlar da benzer duygusal ifadelere yol açabilecektir (Arslan, 2019; Ayten, 2009; Byeon ve Park, 2017; Genç, 2018; Lee vd., 2019; Meffert vd., 2015; Şahin, 2018). Türkiye’de bu kapsamda son zamanlarda yaşanan ve asrın felaketi olarak ifade edilen pek çok kişinin ölümüyle sonuçlanan Kahramanmaraş merkez üslü olan deprem mutluluk ve ölüm kavramlarının bir arada yaşanmasıyla sonuçlanmıştır.6 Şubat 2023 tarihinde merkez üssü Kahramanmaraş olan depremde pek çok insan hayatını kaybetmiş ve pek çok insan da yaralanmıştır. Bu kayıpların yanında pek çok kişinin maddi kayıplara da uğradığı depremde sayısız hasarlar da beraberinde gelmiştir. Özellikle üniversitelerin kapalı olduğu dönemde, pek çok gencin ailesinin yanında olması sonucunda üniversitede öğrenim gören gençler de bu durumdan fazlasıyla etkilenebilmiştir. Pek çoğu akrabalarını, arkadaşlarını kaybetmiş, pek çoğunun geleceğe yönelik hedef ve planları sekteye uğramıştır. Elbette bu durum gencin içinde bulunduğu durumu daha da kötüleştirebilmiştir (İmik ve Aydoğdu, 2023; Sarıgül, 2023). Üniversitede öğrenim gören gençlerin ifade edilen deprem felaketinden etkilenmelerinde hem yaşadıkları kayıpların hem de içerisinde bulundukları dönemin özellikle etkili olduğu ifade edilebilir. Üniversitede öğrenim gören gençler normalde geleceklerine yönelik endişeleri de oldukça fazla taşıyan bireylerdir. Aldıkları eğitimle iyi bir iş sahibi olmak onların en büyük kaygıları arasındadır. Mezun olduktan sonra hayatlarını karşılayıp karşılamayacakları durumu 361 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal onlar için endişe ve stres kaynağı olabilmektedir. Özellikle ailelerinden ayrı yaşamaya başlayan, bağımsızlığını kazanan üniversite gençliğinin bu anlamda okulu bitirdikten sonra kendi hayatını kuramayacak durumda olması ya da bu durumla karşı karşıya kalma düşüncesi bile onları büyük bir kaosun ortasında bırakabilmektedir. İfade edilen bu duygu durumuna sahip olan üniversite gençliğinin, deprem felaketini yaşaması ve bu felakette maddi ya da manevi kayıplar yaşamaları ise onların daha fazla psikolojik ya da davranışsal sorunlar yaşamalarını da beraberinde getirebilecektir (Çakır vd., 2023; Telli ve Altun, 2023). Böyle bir durumda ise bu gençlerin tespit edilerek onlara psikososyal destek sağlanması gerekecektir. Psikososyal destek, bireyin baş edemediği ve baş etme mekanizmasının sınırlarının aşıldığı durumlarda bireylere sağlanan destek olarak tanımlanabilir (Aksoy ve Kabasakal, 2023; Türk ve Kaya, 2023). Bu kapsamda deprem felaketini yaşayan üniversite öğrencilerinin belirlenmesi ve psikososyal destek mekanizmalarının devreye alınması onların incinebilirliklerini de azaltabilecektir. Yapılan araştırmalarda üniversite gençliğine yönelik yaşanan deprem felaketinde hissettiklerine yönelik sınırlı sayıda araştırmaya rastlanmıştır (İmik ve Aydoğdu, 2023; Kaplan ve Taşar, 2023; Sarıgül, 2023; Yıldız ve Öztürk, 2023). Bu kapsamda araştırmada 6 Şubat Kahramanmaraş depremini yaşayan üniversite öğrencilerinin ölüm ve mutluluk özelinde hissettiklerini belirlemek amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem 6 Şubat Kahramanmaraş depreminden sonra üniversite öğrencilerinin mutluluk ve ölüm algılarını belirlemek amacıyla gerçekleştirilen araştırmanın modeli, çalışma grubu, veri toplama araçları, veri toplama yöntemi ve verilerin analizi kısımlarına bu bölümde yer verilmiştir. Araştırma Modeli Araştırmada nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden tarama modeli kullanılmıştır. Tarama modeli, geçerlik ve güvenirliği kanıtlanmış ölçme araçlarıyla geniş bir örneklem grubundan bilgi almayı sağlayan bir yöntemdir (Büyüköztürk vd., 2016). Araştırmada üniversite öğrencilerinin Kahramanmaraş depremine yönelik mutluluk ve ölüm algılarını belirlemek amacıyla tarama modeli kullanılmıştır. Çalışma Grubu Araştırma Erzurum Atatürk Üniversitesi Fen Edebiyat Bölümüne devam eden ve 6 Şubat Kahramanmaraş depreminde bu bölgede olan ve araştırmaya gönüllü olarak katılmayı kabul eden öğrencilerle gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmaya dâhil edilen öğrencilerin %82’si kadın, %18’i erkektir. Öğrencilerin %66’ı 18-21 yaş grubunda, %61’i il merkezinde yaşamakta, %88,3’ü ikinci sınıf öğrencisi, %90,7’sinin anne- babası hayatta, %54,3’ünün annesi, 362 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal %36,7’sinin babası ilköğretim mezunudur. Öğrencilerin %53,3’ü depremde birinci derece akrabalarını kaybetmiş, %46,7’si ise kaybetmemiştir. Veri Toplama Araçları Araştırmada veriler “Genel Bilgi Formu”, Demirci, Ekşi ve Ekşi (2018) tarafından Türkçeye uyarlanan “Mutluluğa Aşırı Değer Verme Ölçeği” ve Topuz (2013) tarafından Türkçeye uyarlanan “Ölüm Algısı Ölçeği” ile toplanmıştır. Genel Bilgi Formu: Araştırmada yer alacak öğrencilerin sosyodemografik özelliklerini belirlemek amacıyla geliştirilmiş olan formdur. Formda öğrencilerin cinsiyetleri, yaşları, annebaba hayatta olma durumu, anne-baba öğrenim durumu, Kahramanmaraş depreminde birinci derece yakınlarını kaybedip kaybetmediklerine yönelik sorular bulunmaktadır. Mutluluğa Aşırı Değer Verme Ölçeği: Mauss ve arkadaşları (2011) tarafından bireylerin mutluluğa yönelik algılarını belirlemek amacıyla geliştirilen ölçek, Demirci, Ekşi ve Ekşi (2018) tarafından Türkçeye uyarlanmıştır. 7 madde ve tek boyut olarak değerlendirilen ölçek 7’li likert tipindedir. Ölçeğin uyarlama çalışması sırasında Cronbach Alfa değeri .80 olarak bulunmuştur. Araştırma kapsamında Cronbach alfa değeri ise .70 olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Ölüm Algısı Ölçeği: Spilka ve arkadaşları (1977) tarafından geliştirilen ve bireylerin ölüm algılarını belirlemeyi amaçlayan ölçek, Topuz (2013) tarafından Türkçeye uyarlanmıştır. 24 madde dörtlü likert tipinden oluşan ölçek, beş alt boyuttan oluşmaktadır. Türkçeye uyarlama çalışmasında Cronbach Alfa değerleri, Ahirette Ödüllendirme alt boyutu için .82, Bakmakla Yükümlü Olduklarını Terk Etme alt boyutu için .72, Başarısızlık alt boyutu için .75, Cesaret alt boyutu için .69, Bilinmeyen alt boyutu için .67, Acı Çekme alt boyutu için .73 ve tüm ölçek için .81 olarak bulunmuştur. Araştırma kapsamında Cronbach alfa değerleri Ahirette ödüllendirme alt boyutu için .68, Bakmakla Yükümlü Olduklarını Terk Etmek alt boyutu için .75, Başarısızlık alt boyutu için .79, Cesaret alt boyutu için .70, Bilinmeyen alt boyutu için .64, Acı Çekme alt boyutu için .81 ve tüm ölçek için .72 olarak bulunmuştur. Veri Toplama Yöntemi Araştırmada Erzurum Atatürk Üniversitesi Fen Edebiyat Fakültesinde öğrenim gören öğrencilere araştırmanın amacı hakkında bilgi verilmiştir. Araştırmaya gönüllü olarak katılım sağlamak isteyen öğrencilere onam formu doldurulmuş ve veriler araştırmacı tarafından yüz yüze uygulanmıştır. Verilerin Analizi Araştırmada öğrencilerin verdikleri cevaplar SPSS 26.0 IBM istatistik programına aktarılmıştır. Öğrencilerin sosyodemografik özellikleri için betimsel istatistikler kullanılmıştır. Öğrencilerin 363 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ölçeklere vermiş oldukları cevapların normal dağılım gösterip göstermediğini belirlemek için örneklem sayısının 50 üstünde olmasından dolayı Kolmogorov Sminrnov test sonuçları ile Skewness ve Kurtosis değerleri incelenmiştir. Mutluluğa aşırı değer verme ölçeği ile ölüm algısı ölçeği ve alt boyutlarına ait normallik analiz dağılım sonuçlarında öğrencilerin vermiş oldukları cevapların normal dağılım göstermediği belirlenmiştir. Bu nedenle analizlerde Kruskal Wallis t Testi, Mann Whitney U testi ve Spearman Korelasyon analizi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular Kahramanmaraş depremini yaşayan üniversite öğrencilerinin mutluluk ve ölüm algılarını belirlemek amacıyla yapılan araştırmanın bulgularına aşağıda yer verilmiştir. Tablo 1’de üniversite öğrencilerinin cinsiyetlerine göre mutluluğa aşırı değer verme ölçeği ile ölüm algısı ölçeği ve alt boyutlarına ait ortalamalar ve Mann Whitney U test sonuçları görülmektedir. Tabloda da görüldüğü gibi öğrencilerin cinsiyetlerine göre ölüm algısı ölçeği alt boyutlarından cesaret (U=4972; p<.05) ve bilinmeyen alt boyutlarında (U=5394; p<.05) anlamlı farklılık bulunmuştur. Cesaret alt boyutunda erkek öğrencilerin sıra ortalaması (x=181,43), kız öğrencilerin sıra ortalamasından (x=143,71) yüksek bulunmuştur. Bir başka ifadeyle erkek öğrenciler ölüme yönelik daha fazla cesarete sahiptirler. Bilinmeyen alt boyutunda ise kız öğrencilerin sıra ortalaması (x=155,57) erkek öğrencilerin sıra ortalamasına (x=127,39) göre daha yüksektir. Yani kız öğrenciler erkek öğrencilere oranla ölüm hakkında daha fazla bilinmezlik taşımaktadırlar. Tablo 2’de üniversite öğrencilerinin yaşlarına göre mutluluğa aşırı değer verme ölçeği ile ölüm algısı ölçeği ve alt boyutlarına ait ortalamalar ve Mann Whitney U test sonuçları görülmektedir. Tabloda da görüldüğü gibi öğrencilerin yaşlarına göre ölüm algısı ölçeği alt boyutlarından ahirette ödüllendirilme (U=8312; p<.05) ve başarısızlık (U=8057,50; p<05) alt boyutları arasında anlamlı farklılık bulunmuştur. Ahirette ödüllendirilme alt boyutunda 22 ve üstü yaş grubunda olan öğrencilerin sıra ortalaması (x=168,01), 18-21 yaş grubunda olan öğrencilerin sıra ortalamasına göre (x=141,48) yüksek bulunmuştur. Yani 22 ve üstü yaş grubunda olan öğrenciler ahirette ödüllendirileceklerini düşünmektedir. Başarısızlık alt boyutunda 18-21 yaş grubunda olan öğrencilerin sıra ortalaması (x=160,81), 22 ve üstü yaş grubunda olan öğrencilerin sıra ortalamasına (x=130,50) göre yüksek bulunmuştur. Bir başka ifadeyle 18-21 yaş grubunda olan öğrenciler ölüm hakkında daha fazla başarısızlık hissetmektedir. Tablo 3’de üniversite öğrencilerinin doğum yerlerine göre mutluluğa aşırı değer verme ölçeği ile ölüm algısı ölçeği ve alt boyutlarına ait ortalamalar ve Kruskal Wallis test sonuçları görülmektedir. Tabloda da görüldüğü gibi öğrencilerin doğum yerlerine göre mutluluğa aşırı 364 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal değer verme ölçeği arasında anlamlı farklılık bulunmuştur (x2=46,32; p<05). Buna göre köyde dünyaya gelen öğrencilerin sıra ortalaması (x=270,39), ilçede (x=134,81) ve ilde (x=144,23) dünyaya gelen öğrencilerin sıra ortalamasına göre daha yüksektir. Bir başka ifadeyle köyde dünyaya gelen öğrenciler, ilçe ve ilde dünyaya gelen öğrencilere oranla daha mutludur. Öğrencilerin doğum yerlerine göre ölüm algısı ölçeği alt boyutlarından ahirette ödüllendirilme (x2=25,34; p<05), bakmakla yükümlü olduklarını terk etme (x2=17,69; p<.05) ve cesaret alt boyutlarında (x2=10,78; p<05) anlamlı farklılık bulunmuştur. Ahirette ödüllendirilme alt boyutunda ilçede dünyaya gelen öğrencilerin sıra ortalaması (x=185,52), köyde (x=107,86) ve ilde (x=137,45) dünyaya gelen öğrencilerin sıra ortalamasından daha yüksektir. Yani ilçede dünyaya gelen üniversite öğrencileri ahirette ödüllendirileceğine daha fazla inanmaktadır. Bakmakla yükümlü olduklarını terk etme alt boyutunda ilçede dünyaya gelen öğrencilerin sıra ortalaması (x=181,15), ilde dünyaya gelen öğrencilerin sıra ortalamasından (x=137,19) yüksek olarak bulunmuştur. Yani ilçede dünyaya gelen öğrenciler ölümle bakmakla yükümlü olduklarını terk edeceklerini düşünmektedirler. Cesaret alt boyutunda köyde dünyaya gelen öğrencilerin sıra ortalaması (x=197,91), ilçede (x=160,11) ve ilde (x=139,81) dünyaya gelen öğrencilerin sıra ortalamasına göre yüksek bulunmuştur. Yani köyde dünyaya gelen öğrenciler ölüm konusunda daha cesaretli oldukları söylenebilir. Tablo 4’de üniversite öğrencilerinin sınıf düzeylerine göre mutluluğa aşırı değer verme ölçeği ile ölüm algısı ölçeği ve alt boyutlarına ait ortalamalar ve Kruskal Wallis test sonuçları görülmektedir. Tabloda da görüldüğü gibi üniversite öğrencilerinin sınıf düzeyleri ile mutluluğa aşırı değer verme ölçeği arasında anlamlı farklılık bulunmuştur (x2=25,57; p<.05). Bu duruma göre birinci sınıfta bulunan öğrencilerin sıra ortalaması (x=48,50), ikinci sınıf (x=147,25), üçüncü sınıf (x=194,67) ve dördüncü sınıf (x=243,00) öğrencilerine göre düşük bulunmuştur. Yani birinci sınıf öğrencileri mutluluğa daha az değer vermektedir. Öğrencilerin sınıf düzeylerine göre ölüm algısı ölçeğinin tamamında (x2=24,77; p<.05), Ahirette ödüllendirilme alt boyutunda (x2=8,86; p<05); başarısızlık alt boyutunda (x2=25,68; p<.05), cesaret alt boyutunda (x2=13,77; p<.05), bilinmeyen alt boyutunda (x2=26,36; p<.05) ve acı çekme alt boyutunda (x2=13,77; p<.05) anlamlı farklılık bulunmuştur. Ölüm algısı ölçeğinin tamamında birinci sınıf öğrencilerinin sıra ortalaması (x=268), ikinci sınıf (x=148,36), üçüncü sınıf (x=173,33) ve dördüncü sınıf öğrencilerinin (x=45,50) sıra ortalamasından yüksek bulunmuş, ikinci sınıf öğrencilerinin sıra ortalaması (x=148,36), dördüncü sınıf öğrencilerinin sıra ortalamasından (x=45,50) yüksek bulunmuştur. Yani birinci ve ikinci sınıf öğrencileri daha fazla ölüm algısına sahiptir. Ahirette ödüllendirme alt boyutunda üçüncü sınıf öğrencilerinin sıra ortalaması (x=175,83), birinci sınıf öğrencilerinin 365 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal (x=207,50) ve dördüncü sınıf (x=207,50) öğrencilerinin sıra ortalamasından düşük bulunmuştur. Bir başka ifadeyle ikinci sınıf öğrencileri ahirette ödüllendirileceklerine daha az inanmaktadır. Başarısızlık alt boyutunda birinci sınıf öğrencilerinin sıra ortalaması (x=244,00), ikinci sınıf öğrencilerinin (x=153,87), üçüncü sınıf (x=117,17) ve dördüncü sınıf öğrencilerinin (x=29,50) sıra ortalamasından yüksek, dördüncü sınıf öğrencilerinin sıra ortalaması (x=29,50), ikinci sınıf öğrencilerinin (x=153,87) ve üçüncü sınıf öğrencilerinin (x=117,17) sıra ortalamasından düşük bulunmuştur. Yani birinci sınıf öğrencileri ölümde başarısızlık duygusunu daha fazla yaşamaktayken, dördüncü sınıf öğrencileri daha az oranda yaşamaktadır. Cesaret alt boyutunda birinci sınıf öğrencilerinin sıra ortalaması (x=258,00), ikinci sınıf (x=148,58), üçüncü sınıf (x=156) ve dördüncü sınıf (x=99) öğrencilerinin sıra ortalamalarından daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Yani ölüme karşı birinci sınıf öğrencileri daha fazla cesur davranmaktadır. Bilinmeyen alt boyutunda ise dördüncü sınıf öğrencilerinin sıra ortalaması (x=7,00), birinci sınıf (x=199,50), ikinci sınıf (x=155,82), üçüncü sınıf öğrencilerinin (x=114,83) sıra ortalamasından düşük; üçüncü sınıf öğrencilerinin sıra ortalaması (x=114,83), birinci sınıf öğrencilerinin (x=199,50) ve ikinci sınıf (x=155,82) öğrencilerinin sıra ortalamasından düşük bulunmuştur. Yani üçüncü ve dördüncü sınıf öğrencileri ölüm karşısında daha fazla bilinmezlik hissetmektedir. Acı çekme alt boyutunda ise birinci sınıf öğrencilerinin sıra ortalaması (x=215,00), ikinci sınıf öğrencilerinin sıra ortalamasından (x=144,11) ve dördüncü sınıf öğrencilerinin (x=169,50) sıra ortalamasından yüksek, üçüncü sınıf öğrencilerinin sıra ortalaması (x=203,33), ikinci sınıf öğrencilerinin (x=144,11) sıra ortalamasından yüksek olarak bulunmuştur. Bir başka ifadeyle birinci ve üçüncü sınıf öğrencileri ölümü daha fazla oranda acı çekme olarak düşünmektedirler. Tablo 5’de üniversite öğrencilerinin anne-baba hayatta olma durumuna göre mutluluğa aşırı değer verme ölçeği ile ölüm algısı ölçeği ve alt boyutlarına ait ortalamalar ve Mann Whitney U test sonuçları görülmektedir. Tabloda da görüldüğü gibi öğrencilerin anne-baba hayatta olma durumuna göre mutluluğa aşırı değer verme ölçeği arasında anlamlı farklılık bulunmuştur (U=2659,50; p<.05). Buna göre anne-babası hayatta olan öğrencilerin sıra ortalaması (x=154,72), anne-babası hayatta olmayan öğrencilerin (x=109,48) sıra ortalamasına göre yüksek bulunmuştur. Yani anne babası hayatta olan öğrenciler mutluluğa daha fazla değer vermektedir. Öğrencilerin annebaba hayatta olma durumuna göre ölüm algısı ölçeğinin tamamında (U=1975; p<.05), başarısızlık alt boyutunda (x=2418; p<.05), bilinmeyen alt boyutunda (x=2579; p<.05) ve acı çekme alt boyutlarında (x=1805,50; p<.05) anlamlı farklılık bulunmuştur. Ölüm algısı ölçeğinin tamamında anne-babası hayatta olmayan öğrencilerin sıra ortalaması (x=215,96), 366 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal anne-babası hayatta olan (x=143,76) öğrencilere oranla yüksek bulunmuştur. Yani anne-babası hayatta olmayan öğrenciler daha fazla ölüm algısı hissetmektedir. Başarısızlık alt boyutunda anne-babası hayatta olmayan öğrencilerin sıra ortalaması (x=200,14), anne-babası hayatta olan öğrencilerin sıra ortalamasına (x=145,39) göre, bilinmeyen alt boyutunda anne-babası hayatta olmayan öğrencilerin sıra ortalaması (x=194,39), anne-babası hayatta olan öğrencilerin sıra ortalamasına (x=145,98) ve acı çekme alt boyutunda anne-babası hayatta olmayan öğrencilerin sıra ortalaması (x=222,02), anne-babası hayatta olan öğrencilerin sıra ortalamasına (x=143,14) yüksek bulunmuştur. Bir başka ifadeyle anne-babası hayatta olmayan öğrenciler, anne-babası hayatta olan öğrencilere oranla ölümden sonra başarısızlık, bilinmeyen ve acı çekme duyguları yaşamaktadır. Tablo 6’da üniversite öğrencilerinin anne öğrenim durumuna göre mutluluğa aşırı değer verme ölçeği ile ölüm algısı ölçeği ve alt boyutlarına ait ortalamalar ve Kruskal Wallis test sonuçları görülmektedir. Tabloda da görüldüğü gibi öğrencilerin anne öğrenim durumlarına göre mutluluğa aşırı değer verme ölçeği arasında anlamlı farklılık bulunmuştur (x2=15,76; p<.05). Annesi ilköğretim mezunu olan öğrencilerin sıra ortalaması (x=167,89), annesi ortaokul (x=120,35) ve annesi lise mezunu olan (x=136,02) öğrencilerin sıra ortalamasından yüksektir. Yani annesi ilköğretim mezunu olan öğrenciler daha fazla mutluluk hissetmektedir. Öğrencilerin anne öğrenim durumlarına göre ölüm algısı ölçeğinin tamamı (x2=21,97; p<.05), ahirette ödüllendirilme alt boyutunda (x2=35,31; p<.05), bakmakla yükümlü olduklarını terk etme alt boyutunda (x2=18,62; p<.05), başarısızlık alt boyutunda (x2=27,05), cesaret alt boyutunda (x2=22,98; p<.05) ve acı çekme alt boyutunda (x2=13,99; p<.05) anlamlı farklılık bulunmuştur.

Yani babası ortaokul mezunu olan öğrenciler daha az oranda bilinmezlik hissetmektedir. Tablo 8’de üniversite öğrencilerinin Kahramanmaraş depreminde yakınını kaybetme durumuna göre mutluluğa aşırı değer verme ölçeği ile ölüm algısı ölçeği ve alt boyutlarına ait ortalamalar ve Mann Whitney U test sonuçları görülmektedir. Tabloda da görüldüğü gibi üniversite öğrencilerinin Kahramanmaraş depreminde yakınını kaybetme durumuna göre mutluluğa aşırı değer verme ölçeği ile ölüm algısı ölçeği ve alt boyutları arasında anlamlı farklılık bulunmamıştır (p>.05). Tablo 9’da mutluluğa aşırı değer verme ölçeği ile ölüm algısı ölçeği ve alt boyutlarına ait Spearman korelasyon analiz test sonuçları görülmektedir. Tabloda da görüldüğü gibi mutluluğa aşırı değer verme ölçeği ile ahirette ödüllendirme alt boyutu arasında negatif yönde zayıf (r=-.23; p<.05); başarısızlık alt boyutunda negatif yönde ve zayıf (r=-19; p<.05) anlamlı ilişki bulunmuştur. Yani mutluluğa aşırı değer verdikçe ahirette ödüllendirme ve başarısızlık duyguları azalmaktadır. Tartışma 6 Şubat Kahramanmaraş depreminden sonra üniversite öğrencilerinin mutluluk ve ölüm algılarını belirlemek amacıyla gerçekleştirilen araştırma sonucunda öğrencilerin cinsiyetlerine göre erkek öğrencilerin ölüme karşı daha fazla cesaret sergilerken, kız öğrencilerin bilinmezliğe sahip oldukları görülmektedir. Elde edilen bu sonucu kız ve erkek öğrencilerin yetiştirilme ve gelişimsel niteliklerine bağlanarak açıklamak mümkündür. Erkek öğrenciler toplumun kendine yüklediği misyon ve vizyona bağlı olarak genelde daha fazla risk alma potansiyeline sahiptir. Erkeklerin bu özelliğinden dolayı ölüme karşı da daha fazla cesaretli olmaları beklendik bir özellik olarak ele alınabilir. Nitekim erkeklerin güçlü olmak istemeleri ve ağlamalarının bile 369 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal uygun olarak görülmediği durumlarda elde edilen sonuca yönelik olarak da cesaretleri daha fazla olabilmektedir. Buna karşılık kızların daha fazla oranda empati duyguları ile yetişmesi de benzer şekilde bilinmezlik duygularının yoğunluğunu gerektirebilecektir. Çünkü ölüm algısı aslında bilinmezliklerle dolu bir durum olarak ifade edilebilir. (Ayten, 2009; Sezer ve Saya, 2009). Yapılan araştırmalarda da araştırma sonucuna benzer şekilde kız ve erkek öğrenciler arasında erkek öğrencilerin daha fazla cesarete sahip oldukları ve kızların daha bilinmezlik duygularıyla hareket etmelerine yönelik elde edilen bulgular araştırma sonucunda elde edilen bulguları desteklemektedir (Kutlu, Çavuşoğlu ve Uygun, 2018; Pinzon- Segura vd., 2022).Araştırma sonucunda 22 yaş ve üstünde olan öğrencilerin ahirette daha mutlu olduklarını düşündükleri ve 18-21 yaş arasındaki öğrencilerin ölüm karşısında daha fazla başarısız hissettikleri sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. 22 yaş ve üstünde bulunan öğrencilerin soyut anlamda olaylara daha farklı bir perspektifte bakabilme durumları ile 18-21 yaş arasındaki öğrencilerin henüz istediklerini elde edememe durumlarını yaşadıklarından dolayı sonucun bu yönde çıktığı düşünülmektedir. Çünkü 18-21 yaşında kişinin genelde istekleri ve beklentileri, geleceğini kurma, iyi bir işe sahip olma ve iyi bir şekilde yaşama şansı olarak özetlenebilir. Böyle bir durumda ise 18-21 yaş grubundaki öğrenciler henüz üniversite hayatının da başında olduklarından dolayı başarısızlık hissedebilirler. Öte yandan 22 yaşında genelde ifade edilenlerin elde edildiğini düşünmekle birlikte, öğrencilerin yaşayabilecekleri ve elde edemedikleri durumlar ise onların ahirette mutlu olacaklarını düşünmelerine neden olabilmektedir (Bolat ve Artan, 2022; Karakuş, Öztürk ve Tamam, 2012). Araştırma sonucunda köyde dünyaya gelen öğrencilerin, ilçe ve ilde dünyaya gelen öğrencilere göre daha mutlu oldukları bulunmuştur. Köyde yaşam genel anlamda insanların daha geniş aile topluluklarında yaşadıkları ve bir arada oldukları bir durum olarak ifade edilebilir. Böyle bir durumda öğrenciler stresten uzakta ve doğa ile iç içe bir yaşamla büyümektedir. Öğrencilerin köyde yaşamaları bir başka ifadeyle ilçe ve ilin sınırlarını ortadan kaldırarak çok erken yaşlardan itibaren psikolojik sağlamlığın da güçlü olmasını sağlayabilir. Böyle bir durum ise mutluluğa daha fazla değer verilmesini beraberinde getirebilir (Aksoy, Aytar ve Kaytez, 2018; Keleş, Keskin ve Ertek, 2018). İlçede dünyaya gelen öğrencilerin daha fazla oranda ahirette ödüllendirileceklerine inandıkları aynı zamanda bakmakla yükümlü olduklarını terk edeceklerini düşündükleri ve köyde dünyaya gelen öğrencilerin ölüm hakkında daha fazla cesarete sahip oldukları sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Bu durumu ilçe ve köyün sosyoekonomik yapısına bağlayarak açıklamak mümkündür. İlçe ve ilde genel anlamda ölüme verilen algı oldukça farklı olabilmektedir. Kırsal kesimde ölümle hayatın son bulmadığı ve bu dünyada 370 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yaptığı iyiliklerin karşılığını bir şekilde alacakları düşünülmektedir. Bu durum ise kişilerin ölüme yönelik daha cesaretli davranmalarını beraberinde getirebilmektedir (Alptekin, 2018; Coşkun, 2010; Çınar ve Akgümüş, 2023; Güven, 2019). Ancak buna karşılık olarak da bakmakla yükümlü olduklarını terk etme ve bundan dolayı da endişenin yoğun olarak yaşanması da söz konusu olabilmektedir (Dağ ve Alkar, 2022; Marti- Garcia vd., 2017). İfade edilen bu durumların ise araştırma bulgularını desteklediği düşünülmektedir. Araştırmada birinci sınıf öğrencilerinin mutluluğa daha az değer verdikleri bulunmuştur. Bu durumu üniversitenin başlangıcında öğrencilerin yaşayabilecekleri duygu durumuna bağlı olarak açıklamak mümkündür. Üniversitenin ilk dönemi genelde çevreye, derslere uyum sağlama çabalarıyla ilerlemektedir. Ancak öğrencilerin ilk senede genelde etrafa uyum sağlayamamaları, derslerin yoğunluğu ve sorumluluklarını daha fazla hissetmeleri onların mutsuz olmalarını da beraberinde getirebilmektedir (Özer ve Deniz, 2014; Sevinç ve Gizir, 2014). Ölüm algısı ve ölüme ait düşüncelerde sınıf düzeyine göre de farklılıklar bulunmuştur. Bu kapsamda sınıf düzeyi düştükçe, ölüme yönelik daha fazla korku, kaygı yaşama, ancak buna koşut olarak da daha fazla cesur davranışlar gösterdikleri bulunmuştur. Bu durumu yine birinci sınıf öğrencilerinin gelişimsel özelliklerine bağlayarak açıklamak mümkündür. Genelde üniversite birinci sınıf öğrencileri ergenlik döneminden yeni çıkmış ve çıkmakta olan bireylerdir. Ergenlerin ise genelde daha fazla risk alma davranışlarına sahip oldukları bilinmektedir. Bununla birlikte ergenler aynı zamanda ölümsüz olduklarını düşünmekte ve ölüme yönelik büyük oranda kaygı ve korku hissedebilmektedir. Böyle bir durum ise bu dönemdeki bireylerin daha cesur olmalarını beraberinde getirdiği gibi, aynı zamanda korku ve kaygı durumunu da beraberinde getirebilecektir (Çubuk, 2020; Sekiz Öz ve Kargın, 2021; Tatlılıoğlu, 2012). Araştırmada anne-babası hayatta olan öğrencilerin daha fazla mutlu oldukları, buna karşılık anne-babası hayatta olmayan öğrencilerin ölüm algılarının daha yüksek olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Anne-baba her yaşta bireyin en önemli sosyal sermayesidir. Sadece ekonomik anlamda değil, anne-baba çocuğuna da psikolojik destek veren önemli bir güçtür. Bu kapsamda anne-babanın hayatta olması, kişilerin mutlu olmasını da sağlamaktadır (Ekşi vd., 2020; Kumcağız, Orak ve Şahin, 2018; Yıldırım ve Sezer, 2018). Ancak anne ya da babadan birinin kaybı bireyin sadece mutsuz olmasını değil, bazı durumlarda anne-babaya kavuşma isteğini ortaya çıkarabilmekte, bazen de ölüme yönelik korku ve kaygıyı güçlendirebilmektedir (Annor vd., 2023). Böyle bir durum sonucunda ise öğrencilerin annebabalarının yaşaması onlar için bir mutluluk nesnesi olurken, olmaması ise ölüme yönelik araştırma sonuçlarının ortaya çıkmasını sağlayabilmektedir. 371 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Araştırma sonucunda annesi ilköğretim mezunu olan üniversite öğrencilerinin daha fazla mutluluk hissettikleri bulunmuştur. Annenin ilköğretim mezunu olması, çocuğuyla daha yakın ilişki kurmasını beraberinde getirebilir. Böyle bir durum anne-çocuk arasında kurulan kaliteli ilişkinin çok erken zamanlardan beri kurulacağını ve bunun sonucunda da çocukların yetişkin olduklarında da bu güven hissiyle mutlu olmalarını sağlayabilir (Arslanargun, Bozkurt ve Sarıoğlu, 2016; Şanlı ve Öztürk, 2012). Buna karşılık, annenin öğrenim düzeyinin yükselmesinin, öğrencilerin ahirette mutlu olacaklarını düşünmelerini, bakmakla yükümlü olduklarını terk etme, daha fazla başarısızlık yaşama ve acı çekme davranışlarını birlikte getirdiği yönünde sonuçlara ulaşılmıştır. Annenin öğrenim durumunun yükselmesi, çocuğuyla kuracağı iletişim ve etkileşimin daha farklı bir hal almasını da beraberinde getirebilir. Bir başka ifadeyle çocuğun sürekli ailesinin yanında olmasını isteme nedeni olabilir. Böyle bir duygu durumu ile bir arada büyümek ise ölüm karşısında daha fazla başarısızlık duygusunu beraberinde getirebileceği gibi, bu dünyada istediklerini alamadıkları için ahirette alacaklarını düşünmelerine de neden olabilir (Uslu ve Çağdaş, 2014; Zajac ve Boyatzis, 2021). Araştırma sonucunda babası üniversite ve ortaokul mezunu olan öğrencilerin mutluluğa daha az değer verdikleri, daha fazla ölüm algısı hissettikleri, babanın öğrenim düzeyinin artması ile ölüme yönelik farklı duyguların olduğu, bilinmezlik ve cesaret hissettikleri sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Babanın öğrenim düzeyinin yüksek olması, çocuğuyla olan iletişim ve etkileşimini sınırlandırabilmektedir. Bu kapsamda çocuğun babasıyla olan ilişkisinin istendik yönde olmaması sonucunda, yetişkinliğinde de anne öğrenim düzeyine benzer şekilde duygusal anlamda rahat edememe ve bu durumla bağlantılı olarak da mutsuzluğu beraberinde getirebilir (Gözübüyük ve Özbey, 2020; Mert ve Kahraman, 2018 ). Yine babanın öğrenim düzeyinin yükselmesi sonucunda babayla yaşanamayan ilişki ve etkileşimler, anne öğrenim düzeyinde olduğu gibi ölüm algısına aktarılabilir. Böyle bir durumun da araştırmada elde edilen bulguları desteklediği düşünülmektedir. Araştırma sonucunda, öğrencilerin Kahramanmaraş depreminde yakınlarını kaybetmeleri ile mutluluk durumu ve ölüm algıları arasında anlamlı farklılık bulunmamıştır. Ancak bununla birlikte yakınlarını kaybedenlerin mutluluk puanlarının düşük, ölüm algılarının ise yüksek olduğu bulunmuştur. Kahramanmaraş depremi gibi ani olarak gelişen, kestirilemeyen ve pek çok yıkımın yaşandığı durumlarda, bireylerin öncelikle şok yaşadıkları ve sonrasında gelişen duruma uyum sağlamaya çalıştıkları bir süreçten geçtikleri bilinmektedir. Böyle bir durum ise yakınını kaybeden ya da kaybetmeyen her bireyi derinden etkilemiştir. Özellikle medyada yer alan görüntüler ve insanların çaresizliği depremi deneyimlemeyen bireylerin bile depremi deneyimlemiş olarak algılamalarına yol açabilmiştir 372 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal (Gören, 2023; Koçyiğit, 2023; Şeker, 2023; Tüccar ve Yavuz, 2023; Yelboğa, 2023). Böyle bir durumun ise araştırma sonucunda olduğu gibi anlamlı farklılığı ortaya çıkarmadığı düşünülmektedir. Araştırma sonucunda ulaşılan son bulgu, mutluluğa aşırı değer verme ölçeği ile ahirette ödüllendirme ve başarısızlık alt boyutlarında negatif yönde ilişkinin olmasıdır. Mutluluk ve ölüm birbirine zıt iki kavram olarak değerlendirilebilir. Birinde daha pozitif duyguların olması, diğerinde daha negatif duyguların olmasını gerektirir (Akalın, 2020; Karakuş, Öztürk ve Tamam, 2012; Kurtulan ve Karaırmak, 2016). Bu kapsamda ele alındığında mutluluğun artması ile ölüm algısı arasında bir zıtlığın olması beklenen bir durum haline gelmektedir. Sonuç ve Öneriler Araştırmada elde edilen sonuçlara yönelik olarak aşağıdaki önerilerde bulunmak mümkündür. • Üniversite öğrencilerinin yaşadıkları ortama uyumu ve entegrasyonunu sağlayacak çalışmaların yapılması, • Öğrencilerin özellikle ölümle ilişkili algılarında farklı değişkenlerin ele alınarak inceleneceği çalışmaların planlanması, • Deprem ya da doğal bir afet yaşama durumunda psikososyal desteğin hemen sağlanması • Öğrencilerin görüşlerinin de ele alındığı karma yöntem çalışmalarının gerçekleştirilmesi önerilebilir. 373 VI.

Özellikle içinde bulunduğu bazı şartlar da çocuğun bocalamasına ve gelişim görevlerini yerine getirirken zorlanmasına neden olabilmektedir. Bunlardan biri ise Covid-19 pandemisi olarak ifade edilebilir. Covid-19 pandemisinde okulun eve taşınması çocuğun akademik becerileri kazanmasında, arkadaşlık becerilerinin sınırlanmasına yol açabilmiştir. Ancak böyle bir durum içinde bulunulan dönemin özellikleri ile bağlantılı olarak çocuklarda problemli davranışların da ortaya çıkmasına neden olabilmiştir. Bu düşüncelerden hareketle araştırmada Covid-19 pandemisinde ilkokul çocuklarının akran ilişkilerini destekleyerek, sosyal becerilerinin devamını sağlamak amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmada nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden yarı deneysel desen kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada örneklem seçimine gidilmemiştir. Türkiye’de ikamet etmekte olan ve 7-12 yaş arasındaki çocuklarla çalışılmıştır. Araştırmada araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen sosyal beceri eğitim programı online olarak uygulanmıştır. Çocukların sosyal becerilerini ve akran ilişkilerini belirlemek için Kaner (2000) tarafından geliştirilen “Akran İlişkileri Ölçeği” ve Sezgin ve Akman (2014) tarafından geliştirilen “6-12 yaş Türk çocukları için Sosyal Beceri ve Uyum Ölçeği” kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda çocukların ön testson test sonuçları arasında son test sonuçları lehine anlamlı düzeyde farklılık olduğu ve çocukların sosyal beceri uyumlarının arttığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Araştırmadan elde edilen verilere dayanarak, çocukların akran ilişkilerinin geliştirilmesi için daha uzun ve yüz yüze eğitimlerin yapılması gerektiği önerilebilir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECT OF THE SOCIAL SKILLS TRAINING PROGRAM PREPARED FOR PRIMARY SCHOOL CHILDREN DURING THE PANDEMIC PERIOD ON CHILDREN'S SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT AND FRIENDSHIP SKILLS Abstract During the primary school period, children face new responsibilities in their developmental tasks. Particularly, some conditions may cause the child to hesitate and have difficulty in fulfilling his/her developmental tasks. One of these can be expressed as the Covid-19 pandemic. Moving school to home during the Covid-19 pandemic may limit the child's ability to gain academic skills and limit their friendship skills. However, such a situation may also cause problematic behaviour in children, depending on the characteristics of the current period. Based on these thoughts, the research aimed to ensure the continuation of the social skills of primary school children by supporting their peer relationships during the Covid-19 pandemic. A quasiexperimental design, one of the quantitative research methods, was used in the research. No sample selection was made in the research. It was studied with children between the ages of 7 and 12 who reside in Turkey. Children were reached through the information given to schools. In this context, 50 children whose families gave consent constituted the study group of the research. In the study, the social skills training program developed by the researchers was applied online. To determine children's social skills and peer relationships, the "Peer Relations Scale" developed by Kaner (2000) and the "Social Skills and Adaptation Scale for 6–12-yearold Turkish children" developed by Sezgin and Akman (2014) were used. As a result of the research, it was concluded that there was a significant difference between the children's pre-test and post-test results in favor of the post-test results and that the children's social skill adaptation increased. Based on the data obtained from the research, it can be suggested that longer and face-to-face education should be provided to improve children's peer relationships.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş İlkokul dönemi, hayatın önemli ancak gizli kalmış bir dönemi olarak ifade edilebilir. Bu dönemde çocuğun gerçekleştirmek zorunda olduğu yeni gelişim görevleri ile karşı karşıya kalması, formal olarak okula başlaması, okul sorumluluklarını alması ve aynı zamanda etrafıyla uyumlu etkileşim içinde bulunması gerekmektedir. Çocuğun ilkokula başlaması ile artık çocuktan okuma-yazma ve matematik becerilerini kazanması istenmektedir. Çocuğun akranlarından geri kalması istenmemekte, bunun için daha çok çalışması ve bir an önce akademik olarak yetkinliğini elde etmesi istenmektedir. Bu dönemde çocuğun oyuncakları ve oyunları yasaklanmakta ve çocuk adeta yetişkin biri gibi sorumluluklarıyla karşı karşıya kalmaktadır. İlkokul döneminde çocuklar için ailesi hala oldukça önemli olsa da, okulu ve akranları ön plana geçmeye başlamaktadır (Malik ve Marhawa, 2018; Özen, 2018; Tatlılıoğlu ve Korkmaz, 2015; Tümkaya ve Türkmenoğlu, 2021). Adeta öğretmenin gözdesi olmak için çaba vermektedir. Akranlarıyla olan arkadaşlıkları ise onun yeni bir dünyaya açılmasında önemlidir. Çocuk için okulda başarılı olamaması, öğretmeni, akranları ve ailesinden olumsuz geri dönütler alması onun spor ya da sanat gibi alanlarda başarılı olma isteğini de beraberinde getirebilmektedir (Crisogen, 2016; Sopa, 2014; Theiman, 2016; Türker ve Erhan, 2021). Ancak bazı durumlarda böyle bir imkân da bulunmayabilmektedir. Günümüzde bu kapsamda yaşadığımız ve ilkokul dönemindeki çocuklar başta olmak üzere tüm bireyleri zorlayan bir etken Covid-19 pandemisi olmuştur.Covid-19, Çin’in Vuhan kentinde 2019 yılının sonlarında ortaya çıkan ve sadece bulunduğu bölgede değil, dünyanın büyük bir çoğunluğunda ölümlere yol açan ve bu nedenle de kısa bir süre sonra pandemi ilan edilmesine neden olan bir durumdur. Covid-19 pandemisinde yaşanan hızlı bulaşın engellenebilmesi için tüm Dünyada gereken önlemler alınmıştır. Alınan önlemler ise kısa bir süre sonra Türkiye’de de yaşanmaya başlanmıştır. Bu önlemler okulların kapatılması, sokağa çıkmanın yasaklanması, derslerin çevrim içi sürece evrilmesi olarak ifade edilebilir. Elbette böyle bir durum tüm bireyleri etkilediği gibi ilkokul dönemindeki çocukların da etkilenmesine neden olmuştur. Okulların kapanması ve derslerin çevrim içi yapılması sonucunda çocuklar eve kapanmışlardır. Ancak aynı zamanda bu durum birtakım eşitsizliklerin olmasına neden olmuştur (Duban ve Şen, 2020; Fauzi ve Khusuma, 2020; Nuraini vd., 2020; Okatan ve Tagay, 2021; Putri vd., 2020; Yavuz ve Toprakçı, 2021; Yıldız vd., 2020). Çevrim içi eğitim imkanına sahip olmayan ya da yeterli teknik bilgiye sahip olmayan çocuklar bu kapsamda oldukça zor bir süreci yaşamışlardır (İnci Kuzu, 2020; Rasmitadlia vd., 2020; Scarpelini vd., 2021). Dahası çocukların evden çıkmalarına getirilen kısıt çocukların hayatlarında çok önemli olan öğretmeni ve akranlarıyla olan 381 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ilişkilerini de sınırlandırabilmiştir (Demiryürek, 2022). Böyle bir durum sonucunda ise zaten oldukça zor şartları olan Covid-19 pandemisine bir de psikolojik problemler eklenebilmiştir (Anggraeni, Alpian ve Kodariah, 2021; Çalışkan, 2020; Siachpazidou vd., 2021).Çocukların içinde bulundukları durumdan kurtularak rahatlatılmaya çalışılması ise bu anlamda oldukça önemli bir toplum sorunu haline gelmiştir (Hamilton ve Gross, 2021). Bu nedenle farklı yaş gruplarında bulunan çocuklara yönelik birtakım programlar yine çevrim içi olarak hazırlanmaya ve uygulanmaya başlanmıştır. Ancak yapılan bu programların belirli bir kesime yönelik olduğu ve genelleşmesinde sorunların da olduğu görülmüştür (Aral vd., 2021; Gözeler ve Özbey, 2023; Lestari ve Sukmawati, 2022; Nurjanah vd., 2022). Yapılan literatür taramasında ilkokul dönemindeki çocuklara yönelik pandemi döneminde hazırlanan ve uygulanan sosyal becerilerini ve akran ilişkilerini desteklemeye yönelik sınırlı sayıda araştırmaya rastlanmıştır (Nur’Aini vd., 2022; Oliveria Major vd. 2023). Bu nedenle araştırmada ilkokul döneminde bulunan çocuklara yönelik olarak hazırlanan sosyal beceri eğitim programının çocukların sosyal beceri ve akran ilişkileri üzerindeki etkisinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem Bu bölümde, araştırma modeli, çalışma grubu, veri toplama araçları, veri toplama yöntemi ve verilerin toplanması bölümlerine yer verilmiştir. Araştırma Modeli Araştırmada nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden biri olan zayıf deneysel tek grup ön test- son test deneysel desen kullanılmıştır. Zayıf deneysel desenlerden tek grup ön test- son test deseninde deneysel işlem bir tek grup üzerinden gerçekleştirilmektedir (Büyüköztürk vd., 2016). Araştırmada kontrol grubu seçilmemiştir. Covid-19 pandemisinde çocukların yaşamış oldukları problemler göz önüne alınarak hazırlanan programın tüm gruplar üzerinde uygulanması ve tüm çocukların bu süreçten yararlanabilmesi için kontrol grubu seçilmemiştir. Ayrıca Türkiye’de yer alan tüm çocukların bu programa katılım sağlayabilmesi açısından eşleştirme gerçekleştirilmemiştir. Çalışma Grubu Araştırmanın çalışma grubu Türkiye’de ikamet etmekte olan 8-11 yaş arasındaki çocuklardan oluşmaktadır. Bu kapsamda Covid-19 pandemisinde üniversitelerin de uzaktan eğitime geçmeleri sonucunda, Türkiye’de farklı illerde memleketlerine giden üniversite öğrencilerinin ulaşabildikleri ilköğretim öğrencileri araştırmaya dâhil edilmiştir. Araştırmada 50 çocukla çalışılmıştır. Çocukların sosyodemografik özelliklerinin dağılımı Tablo 1’de verilmiştir. 382 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Tablo 1’de araştırmaya dâhil edilen çocukların sosyodemografik özelliklerinin dağılımı görülmektedir. Tabloda da görüldüğü gibi çocukların %54’ünün erkek, %46’sının kız olduğu, %32’sinin 10 yaş grubunda ve %46’sının 6. Sınıfa devam ettiği; çocukların annelerinin %44’ünün ilkokul, babalarının %48’inin üniversite mezunu olduğu ve çocukların %52’sinin ilçe, %48’inin ise ilde yaşadığı belirlenmiştir. Veri Toplama Araçları Araştırmada veriler, “Genel Bilgi Formu”, Sezgin ve Akman (2014) tarafından geliştirilen “612 Yaş Türk Çocukları için Sosyal Uyum ve Beceri Ölçeği” ve Kaner (2000) tarafından geliştirilen “Akran İlişkileri Ölçeği” ile toplanmıştır. Ayrıca araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen ve on hafta devam eden “Sosyal Beceri Eğitim Programı” uygulanmıştır. Genel Bilgi Formu: Araştırmaya dâhil edilen çocukların sosyodemografik özelliklerini belirlemek için araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen formdur. Formda, çocukların cinsiyeti, yaşı, devam ettikleri sınıf, anne ve baba öğrenim düzeyleri ve çocukların nerede yaşadıklarına yönelik sorular bulunmaktadır. 6-12 Yaş Türk Çocukları İçin Sosyal Uyum ve Beceri Ölçeği: Sezgin ve Akman (2014) tarafından annelerin çocuklarının sosyal uyumlarını değerlendirebilmeleri amacıyla geliştirilen ölçektir. Ölçek 59 madde ve 7 alt boyuttan oluşmaktadır. 3’lü likert tipinde değerlendirilen ölçekte ters kodlanan madde bulunmamaktadır. Ölçeğin geliştirilme aşamasında Cronbach Alfa değerleri, tüm ölçek için .94, Dürtüsellik alt boyutu için .83, Engellenme eşiği alt boyutu için .62, Dikkat/Hareketlilik alt boyutu için .74, Sosyal İlişki alt boyutu için .84, Duygu Durumu alt boyutu için .68, Onay İhtiyacı alt boyutu için .78 ve İçe Dönüklük alt boyutu için .67 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Araştırma kapsamında Cronbach Alfa değerleri ise tüm ölçek için .90, Dürtüsellik alt boyutu için .80, Engellenme eşiği alt boyutu için .69, Dikkat/Hareketlilik alt boyutu için .79, Sosyal İlişki alt boyutu için .80, Duygu Durumu alt boyutu için .75, Onay İhtiyacı alt boyutu için .78 ve İçe Dönüklük alt boyutu için .81 olarak belirlenmiştir. Ölçek değerlendirilirken, alt boyutlardan alınan puanların düşük olması gerekmektedir. Bir başka ifadeyle alt boyutlardan alınan düşük puanlar çocukların o becerilerde yetkin olduğunu göstermektedir. Akran İlişkileri Ölçeği: Çocukların akranlarıyla olan ilişkilerini belirlemek amacıyla Kaner (2000) tarafından geliştirilmiştir. 5’li likert tipi olarak değerlendirilen ölçek, 18 maddeden ve dört alt boyuttan oluşmaktadır. Ölçeğin geliştirilme aşamasında Cronbach Alfa değerleri tüm ölçek için .90, Bağlılık alt boyutu için .85, Güven ve Özdeşim alt boyutu için .87, kendini açma alt boyutu için .85 ve Sadakat alt boyutu için .88 olarak belirlenmiştir. Araştırma kapsamında 383 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Cronbach Alfa değerleri tüm ölçek için .85, Bağlılık alt boyutu için .80, Güven ve Özdeşim alt boyutu için .80, Kendini Açma alt boyutu için .82, Sadakat alt boyutu için .79 olarak belirlenmiştir. Boyutlardan alınacak yüksek puanlar çocukların arkadaşlık ilişkilerinde başarılı oldukları şeklinde değerlendirilmektedir. Sosyal Beceri Eğitim Programı: Araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen program 10 hafta devam etmiştir. Programda çocukların bireysel özelliklerinden yararlanılmıştır. Bu kapsamda program oluşturulurken felsefi yapısını pragmatizm ve yeniden kurmacılıktan, psikolojik temellerini ise Ralp Tayler’ın görüşlerinden almıştır. İfade edilen kuram ve yaklaşımlarda eğitim ortamına etkin katılımın sağlanmasının önemi üzerinde durulmakta ve küçük adımlarla çalışmanın öneminden bahsedilmektedir. Ayrıca bireyselliğin ön plana alınması gerektiğine vurgu da yapılmaktadır (Demirel, 2017). Bu düşünceler altında programda çocukların aktif yer alacakları etkinlikler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Ayrıca çocukların sevdikleri aktivitelerden yararlanılmıştır. Programda yer verilen oturumlar hafta sonu bir saat çevrim içi olarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Programda üniversite öğrencileri aktif rol almışlardır. Programlara ait bilgilere aşağıda yer verilmiştir. • 1. Oturum: Tanışma ve Program Tanıtımı: Oturumda amaçlanan çocuklarla ve ebeveynlerle tanışılmasıdır. Tanışma etkinliği gerçekleştikten sonra çocuklarla program hakkında konuşulmuştur. Programın neden gerçekleştirildiği, programla nelerin amaçlandığı ve bu süreçten çocuklardan beklentilerin neler olduğu üzerinde durulmuştur. Tanışma oturumunda ayrıca Covid-19 pandemisinin ne olduğu, virüsten nasıl korunulması gerektiğine yönelik bilgilendirmeler yapılmış ve animasyon filmler izlenmiştir. Çocuklarla birlikte programda parmak oyunları, kelime kartları oyunları oynanmıştır. 384 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal • 2. Oturum: Virüste Neymiş: Oturumun amacı, çocukların pandemi nedeniyle yaşamış oldukları kaygıları fark etmelerini sağlayarak, bu kaygıdan sağlıklı baş etme yöntemleri ile kurtulmalarının sağlanmasıdır. Bu kapsamda da nefes ve rahatlama egzersizlerine yönelik etkinlikler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Ayrıca çocuklarla dans edilmiş ve çocukların biriken enerjilerini boşaltmaları konusunda destek de sağlanmıştır. • 3. Oturum: Arkadaşlık Sadece Yakın Mesafe Değildir, Arkadaşlık Uzun Mesafelerde de Bir Olabilmektir: Oturumun amacı çocukların Türkiye’nin farklı bölgelerinde de olsalar bir arada olabileceklerini ve kendilerini üzen, mutlu eden anıları paylaşabileceklerini fark etmelerinin sağlanmasıdır. Bu kapsamda oturumda Türkiye’nin farklı bölgelerini tanıtmaya yönelik geziler sanal ortamda düzenlenmiş, birlikte halk oyunları oynanmış, o bölgede yaşayan çocukların kendilerinin de aktif olarak ev sahipliği yaptıkları programlar yedi bölgenin güzellikleri ve özellikleri boyutunda sürdürülmüştür. • 4. Oturum: Zenginliklerimizle Varız ve Var Olacağız: Oturumun amacı çocuklar arasındaki iletişim ve etkileşimin arttırılmasıdır. Birlikte nesi var oyunu oynanan oturumda origami etkinliklerine yer verilmiştir. Aynı zamanda çocukların yaşlarına ve gelişimlerine uygun olan bir kitap ekrana yansıtılmış ve çocuklarla birlikte etkileşimli kitap okuma etkinliği gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çocukların birbirlerine duygu ve düşüncelerini anlatmaları da sağlanmıştır. 385 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal • 5. Oturum: Duymazsak da Anlaşabiliriz: Oturumun amacı çocukların farklılıklara yönelik bakış açısı geliştirmelerinin sağlanmasıdır. Burada ilk olarak çocuklarla günlük sohbetler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çocukları üzen ya da mutlu eden günlük olaylar konusunda sohbetler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Daha sonra araştırmacılar tarafından sessiz sinema şeklinde bir animasyon getirilmiş ve bu filmde ne anlatıldığını anlayıp anlamadıkları sorulmuştur. Çocukların tamamının görüşleri alınmıştır. Ayrıca pandomim gösterisi sunulmuştur. Pandomim gösterisi hakkında sohbet edilmiştir. • 6. Oturum: Duygularımız Bizim Neyimizdir? Oturumun amacı, çocukların duygularını tanımalarını ve bunu uygun şekilde ifade edebilmelerinin sağlanmasıdır. Bu nedenle duygularımız oyunu oynanmıştır. Duygularımızı uygun şekilde ifade ettiğimizde ya da edemediğimizdeki durumlarla ilgili oyunlar oynanmıştır. Sonrasında ise çocuklarla beraber duygu ayraçları yapılmıştır. • 7. Oturum: Sihirli Güç, İşbirliği: Oturumun amacı çocukların işbirliğinin neden önemli olduğunu fark etmelerini sağlamaktır. Oturumda, “Bir elin nesi var, iki elin sesi var” adındaki hikaye canlandırmalarla işlenmiştir. Çocuklarla etkileşimli kitap okuma etkinliği 386 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal gerçekleştirilmiş ve çocuklara işbirliğinin neden önemli olduğuna yönelik sorular yöneltilmiştir. Oturum çocuklar tarafından çok sevilen hareketli şarkılarla devam etmiş ve çocukların oynaması ve dans etmesi sağlanmıştır. • 8. Oturum: Empati Becerisi Nedir? Oturumda amaçlanan empati becerisinin ne olduğunu çocukların algılaması ve empatik iletişim örnekleri sergilemelerinin sağlanmasıdır. Bu amaçla çocuklara farklı durumlar yansıtılmış ve çocuklar bu farklı durumlarda ne yapmalarının ya da ne yapmamalarının uygun olacağı üzerinde durmuşlardır. Empatinin neden önemli olduğuna yönelik çocuklara sorular yöneltilmiş ve çocukların kendini başkasının yerine nasıl koyabileceği üzerinde durulmuştur. • 9. Oturum: Siber Zorbalık ve Akran Zorbalığı: Oturumda amaçlanan siber zorbalığın ve akran zorbalığın ne olduğu üzerinde durulmasıdır. Bu kapsamda çocuklara siber zorbalığın ne olduğu ve nasıl karşılaşılabileceğine yönelik bilgiler verilmiş, böyle durumlarda ne yapılması gerektiği örnekler üzerinde anlatılmıştır. Siber zorba bir kuklanın başına gelenlere yönelik kuklanın ağzından düşünceleri alınmıştır. 387 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal • 10. Oturum: Neler Yaptık, Neler Yaşadık? Oturumun amacı on haftalık süreç içerisinde çocuklarla yapılan etkinliklerin gözden geçirilmesidir. Bu kapsamda yapılanlara yönelik hazırlanan slayt gösterisi çocuklarla birlikte izlenmiştir. Oturumun sonunda çocuklarla birlikte gevşeme teknikleri ve nefes egzersizleri çalışılmıştır. Veri Toplama Yöntemi Araştırma Covid-19 pandemi salgınından sonra üniversitelerin ve okulların kapatılması döneminde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu nedenlerle üniversiteden memleketlerine dönen öğrencilere, bulundukları illerde/ilçelerde yaşayan ve 8-11 yaş aralığında çocuğu olan ebeveynlere araştırma hakkında bilgi vermeleri istenmiştir. Öğrenciler aracılığıyla ailelere ulaşılmış ve araştırma hakkında araştırmacılar tarafından tekrar bilgilendirme yapılmıştır. Araştırmaya katılmayı kabul eden ebeveynlere aydınlatılmış onam formları yine öğrenciler aracılığıyla ulaştırılmıştır. Çocuklarla ve ailelerle çevrim içi bir araya gelinmiştir. Bu süreçte çocuklarla tanışılmış ve onların güveni kazanılmıştır. Ailelere “Google Form” aracılığıyla ölçme araçları gönderilmiş ve ön test uygulamaları tamamlanmıştır. Ön test uygulamalarının tamamlanmasından sonra on hafta sürecek eğitimlere başlanmıştır. Eğitimlerin tamamlanmasından sonra ailelere tekrar “Google Form” aracılığıyla ulaşılmış ve son test çalışmaları gerçekleştirilmiştir. Verilerin Analizi Araştırmada elde edilen veriler SPSS 26.0 IBM istatistik paket programına alınmıştır. Çocukların ve ailelerin sosyodemografik özelliklerine yönelik betimsel analizler uygulanmıştır. Ailelerin ölçme araçlarına vermiş oldukları cevaplara yönelik normallik analizleri gerçekleştirilmiştir. Örneklem sayısının 50 olması nedeniyle Shapiro Wilk test sonuçları ile Kurtosis ve Skewness değerleri incelenmiştir. Normallik testi sonuçları Tablo 2’de verilmiştir. Tablo 2’de araştırmaya dâhil olan ebeveynlerin çocuklarına ait Arkadaşlık ilişkileri Ölçeği ve 6-12 Yaş Türk Çocukları için Sosyal Beceri Uyum Ölçeğine verdikleri cevaplara yönelik normallik analiz sonuçları görülmektedir. Tabloda da görüldüğü gibi ebeveynlerin vermiş oldukları cevapların normal olmayan dağılım gösterdikleri belirlenmiştir. Bu nedenle çocukların ön test- son test sonuçlarını değerlendirmek için nonparametrik analizlerden Wilcoxan İşaretli Sıralar test sonuçları incelenmiştir. Bulgular Covid-19 pandemi döneminde ilköğretim çocuklarına yönelik uygulanan Sosyal beceri eğitiminin çocukların akran ilişkileri ve sosyal beceri uyumları üzerinde etkisinin olup olmadığını belirlemek amacıyla gerçekleştirilen araştırmanın bulgularına aşağıda yer verilmiştir.Tablo 3’de ilköğretim çocuklarının akran ilişkileri ölçeği alt boyutlarına ait ön test- 388 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal son test sonuçlarına ait ortalamalar ve Wilcoxan İşaretli Sıralar Test Sonuçları görülmektedir. Tabloda da görüldüğü gibi çocukların son test sonuçlarının bağlılık, güven ve özdeşim ve kendini açma alt boyutlarında anlamlı derecede yüksek olduğu ve ön test sonuçlarına oranla etki büyüklüğü Cohen (d) (1998) kriterlerine göre yüksek oranda arttığı görülmektedir. Bir başka ifadeyle çocuklara uygulanan sosyal beceri eğitim programının çocukların akran ilişkilerinde sadakat alt boyutu haricinde anlamlı etkide bulunduğu ifade edilebilir. Tablo 4’de ilköğretim çocuklarının sosyal beceri uyum ölçeği alt boyutlarına ait ön test- son test sonuçlarına ait ortalamalar ve Wilcoxan İşaretli Sıralar test sonuçları görülmektedir. Tabloda da görüldüğü gibi çocukların sosyal beceri uyum ölçeği alt boyutlarında son test puanları ön test puanlarına oranla Cohen d(1998) etki büyüklüğüne göre anlamlı oranda azalmıştır. Bir başka ifadeyle uygulanan sosyal beceri eğitim programı çocukların sosyal becerilerine etki etmiş ve çocuklarda istenen sosyal beceri özelliklerinin ortaya çıkmasına neden olmuştur. Tartışma Covid-19 pandemi döneminde ilköğretim dönemindeki çocuklara yönelik uygulanan sosyal beceri eğitim programının çocukların akran ilişkileri üzerinde sadakat alt boyutu haricinde anlamlı etki yaptığı belirlenmiştir. Bu durumu çocukların on hafta boyunca almış oldukları eğitime bağlayarak açıklamanın mümkün olduğu düşünülmektedir. Çocuklara uygulanan eğitimde farklılıklara saygı, empati ve arkadaşlık ilişkileri, üzerinde durulan konular arasındadır. Eğitimde çocukların aktif olarak yer alması ve problem durumlarına kendilerinin çözüm yolu bulması istenmiştir. Bu nedenle çocuklar farklılıklara saygı ve akran ilişkilerinin önemini yaparak yaşayarak öğrenmişlerdir. Bu durumun ise araştırma sonuçlarına yansıdığı görülmektedir. Nitekim çocukların akran ilişkilerini kazanmalarında önemli olan noktalardan biri, etrafındaki yetişkinlerin varlığıdır denilebilir. Çocuklar gelişimsel özellikleri nedeniyle özellikle bu dönemde kendisinden farklı olan akranlarına karşı acımasız davranışlar içerisine girebilmektedir. Böyle bir durumda çocukların doğru yönlendirilmesi ise bu durumların önlenmesine katkı sağlayabilmektedir (Calp, Karaman ve Çavuşoğlu, 2018; Carroll, 2011; Erol ve Erol, 2020; Hargreaves, Buchanan ve Quick, 2022). Özellikle içinde bulundukları ve sokağa çıkamadıkları bu dönemde çocuklara uygulanan eğitimle çocukların arkadaşlık ilişkilerinin de bu yönde gelişmesi beklenen bir sonuç olarak değerlendirilebilir. Ancak çocukların sadakat alt boyutunda anlamlı farklılık elde edememesini sadakatin daha üst düzey bilişsel ve sosyal becerilere dayanmasından olduğu düşünülmektedir. Sadakat karşıdaki kişiyle fiziksel teması gerektirebilen bir yetidir (Doğruyol ve Yetim, 2019; Erden ve Yılmaz, 2016) Çocuklar her ne 389 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal kadar çevrim içi ortamda bir araya gelmiş olsalar da bu sürenin yeterince uzun olmaması ve bağlantı sorunlarının yaşanması çocukların akranlarına dokunamamasına neden olmuştur. Böyle bir durum ise sadakat alt boyutunda farklılaşmayı engelleyebilmiştir. Araştırma sonucuna benzer şekilde çocuklarla yapılan sosyal beceri eğitimlerinin çocukların akran ilişkilerini desteklediğine (Battistich, 2003; Kabasakal ve Çelik, 2010; Roh vd., 2018; Samancı ve Uçan, 2017; Uz Baş, 2010) yönelik bulgular ise araştırma sonucunu desteklemektedir. Araştırmada uygulanan eğitim sonucunda çocukların sosyal becerilerinde istenen davranış özelliklerini kazandıkları bulunmuştur. Özellikle pandemi döneminde çocukların evde kalmak zorunda olmaları onlarda dürtüsellik, dikkatle ilgili problemlerin yaşanmasına neden olabilmiştir. Çocuklar bu dönemde gelişim alanlarındaki olgunlaşmamışlıkla paralel olarak engellenmelere karşı aşırı hassasiyet göstermişler ve bunun sonucunda duygusal ve davranışsal birtakım problemler de yaşanabilmiştir. Dahası bu çocukların pandemiden bağımsız olarak onay arama ihtiyaçları ise gelişimsel dönem özellikleri arasında yer almaktadır (Arısoy ve Özer, 2023; Buchanan, Hargreaves ve Quick, 2023; Contini vd., 2021; Dallalio vd., 2022; Duban ve Şen, 2020; Matiz vd., 2022; Stevanus ve Gita, 2022; Talu ve Kurt, 2022). Çocuklara uygulanan eğitim programında nefes egzersizlerine ve gevşeme tekniklerine yer verilmesinin, içinde bulunulan durumun çocuklara farklı örneklerle anlatılmasının, çocukların duygularını paylaşan başka akranlarını görmelerinin onlarda ifade edilen durumlara yönelik farklı bir bakış açısı getirdiği ve sonuçta da son test puanlarının istenen düzeyde çıkmasına neden olduğu düşünülmektedir. Çocuklarla gerçekleştirilen sosyal beceri eğitim programlarında çocukların dikkat ve dürtüsellik başta olmak üzere istenmeyen problem davranışlarının azalmasına yardımcı olduğuna yönelik sonuçlar (Beier, 2021; Kabasakal ve Çelik, 2010; Ni ve Jia, 2023; Uz Baş, 2010; Wardana vd., 2022) ise araştırmada ulaşılan sonuçları doğrulamaktadır. Sonuç ve Öneriler Covid-19 pandemi döneminde ilköğretim dönemindeki çocuklara uygulanan sosyal beceri eğitim programının çocuklarda akran ilişkilerini desteklediği ve sosyal becerilerinde de istenen yönde gelişim sağladığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Araştırmadan elde edilen sonuçlara dayanarak aşağıdaki önerilerde bulunmak mümkündür. • Araştırma ilköğretim dönemindeki çocuklarla uygulanmıştır. Farklı yaş ve gelişim özelliklerine sahip olan çocuklara da benzer programlar uygulanabilir. • Pandemi nedeniyle program 10 hafta devam etmiştir. Bu nedenle çalışmaların daha uzun soluklu gerçekleştirilmesi sağlanabilir. 390 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal • İlkokul dönemindeki çocuklara yönelik arkadaşlık ilişkileri ve sosyal becerilerini destekleyecek eğitim programları yüz yüze uygulanabilir. • Toplumda kriz durumlarına yönelik bu tarz eğitim programlarının taslaklarının hazırlanması ve uygulamaya hazır hale getirilmesi önerilebilir. Katkı ve Teşekkür Araştırmacıların her ikisinin de katkısı %50’dir. Araştırmada yer alan üniversite öğrencileri, çocuklar ve ebeveynlerine teşekkür ederiz. 391 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal MITIGATING GASTATIONAL DIABETES RISK: THE POSITIVEIMPACT OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY DURING PREGNANCY Dr. Alketa CAUSHI Department of Individual Sports, Faculty of Movement Science Dr. Valbona PUMA Department of Individual Sports, Faculty Recreation Email: golemi@ust.edu.al Msc Selim IBRAHIMI Medical Center Berxhite Tirane, Faculty of Medical Email: sibrahimi46@gmail.com Amelia IBRAHIMI Medical Center Berxhite Tirane, Faculty of Medical Email: aibrahimi@yahoo.com Abstract Previous studies have shown that physical activity may play a significant role in the management and control of gestational diabetes mellitus. However, few studies have been conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of a structured program of moderate physical activity in women with gestational diabetes. This pilot study aimed to determine the effectiveness of such a program in reducing glucose levels. The study emphasized a positive correlation between physical activity during pregnancy and a reduced risk of gestational diabetes. Pregnant women who engaged in regular exercise routines showed a lower likelihood of developing gestational diabetes compared to those with lower levels of physical activity. This finding indicates that physical activity during pregnancy plays a significant role in the management and prevention of gestational diabetes, a condition that can have serious consequences for both the mother and the fetus. Stabilizing blood sugar levels and the positive impact on metabolic control are potential mechanisms that explain this connection. For pregnant women, this discovery can be interpreted as an additional reason to incorporate physical activity into their daily routine, thereby creating a healthier environment for themselves and the well-being of their future offspring.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduksion Në këtë artikull, ne shqyrtojmë lidhjen midis aktivitetit fizik gjatë shtatzënisë dhe rrezikut të diabetit gestacional. Diabeti Gestacional është një problem shëndetësor serioz për shëndetin e nënës dhe të foshnjës dhe studimet tregojnë se aktiviteti fizik mund të ketë një ndikim pozitiv në parandalimin e tij. Studimet tregojne se egziston nje lidhje mes aktivitetit fizik stilit te jetes se gruas shtatzane dhe diabetit Gestacional.Ne fillim me një shqyrtim të literaturës për të identifikuar synimet kryesore dhe pastaj analizuam te dhenat e mbledhura ne qendrat e shendetit te gras .Kerkimi bazohet ne te dhena konkrtet te mbledhura ne fillim te javes se 28 te grave shtatzana kur dhe eshte risku per tu shfaqur ky lloj diabeti dhe matja e glicemise cdo jave me futjen e programit fizik dhe dietes ushqimore te pershtatshme. 2.2.1 Përkufizimi i diabetit gestacional Diabeti gestacional i referohet vetëm diabetit tek gratë që kurrë nuk kishin diabet më parë dhe zhvillojnë glukozë të lartë të gjakut gjatë shtatzënisë ( Ogden 2011) 2.2.2 Klasifikimi i diabetit në gestacional. Klasifikimi më i njohur dhe më i përdorur gjerësisht i diabetit në shtatzëni është klasifikimi i WHITE. Ky sistem bazohet në moshën e pacientit dhe kohëzgjatjen e sëmundjes. Nga pikëpamja e trajtimit është më e dobishme për të grupuar pacientët në tre grupe funksionale: 1. Diabeti Gestacional (pacientët që zhvillojnë diabet për herë të parë gjatë shtatzënisë) 2. Diabeti i paraprak pa pasoja diabetike (si varësia e insulinës ashtu edhe diabeti i pavarur nga insulina). 3. Diabeti paraprak me sëmundje serioze diabetike (nefropatia, retinopatia e avancuar neuropatia autonome ose sëmundja e arterieve koronare) (Mishell 1994). Figure 3. Klasifikimi i diabetit Gestacional (clinicalgate.com) 2.2.3 Diagnostifikimi i diabetit gestacional. Kriteret diagnostike të diabetit të shtatzënisë janë të shumta, por nuk ka konsuensus të plotë për këto kritere. Kriteret diagnostike: 9 -Diagnoza e diabetit vendoset nëse glicemia esëll në dy matje gjendet mbi 126 g/l (7.0mmol/l). Depistimi i parë mund të realizohet lehtë duke dhënë në çfarëdo moment të ditës 50 g glukozë nga goja pa marrë parasysh ushqimin e mëparshëm. Nëse glicemia 1 orë pas dhënies së glukozës është mbi 1.40 g/l duhet të realizohet prova e hiperglicemisë së provokuar orale (HGPO). Për HGPO përdoren dy metoda: kriteret e përcaktuara nga OBSH-ja dhe kriteret e propozuara nga O’Sullivan dhe Mahan. Përkufizimi i OBSH-së: Përkufizimi i intolerancës ndaj karbohidrateve te gruaja shtatzënë është i njejtë me atë të tolerancës jashtë shtatzënisë . Prova e HGPO bëhet me dhënien e 75 g glukozë. Ka intolerancë ndaj karbohidrateve nëse glicemia esëll është midis 1.20 g/l dhe 1.40 g/l, dhe glicemia 2 orë pas ngarkesës me glukozë midis 1.40 dhe 2.0 g/l. Kriteret e O’Sullivan dhe Mahan për diagnozën e diabetit të shtatzënisë: Prova e HGPO bëhet me 100 g glukozë nga goja, të dhënë në mëngjes pas 8 ose 14 orë esëll, pa kufizim paraprak të 398 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal glucideve. Gjaku venoz për glicemi të merret esëll, pastaj çdo 1, 2 dhe 3 orë pas marrjes së glukozës. (Ylli 2010). Dy glicemi të paktën duhet të jenë mbi vlerat e mëposhtme: Koha në orë: 1.05(5.8) 0 1.90 (10.6) 1 2 3 Glicemia në g/l Tek kush duhet kërkuar diabeti i shtatzënisë? 1.65(9.2) 1.40 (7.80). Nuk ka konsensus as për këtë çështje. Të gjitha gratë shtatzëna duhet të përfitonin nga depistimi midis javës 24 dhe 28 të shtatzënisë. Për këtë arsye praktike dhe ekonomike, depistimi në fillim të shtatzënisë u rezervohet vetëm grave me rrezik. Te këto gra, depistimi i dytë (nëse i pari ka qenë negativ) duhet të bëhet në mes të javës së 24-tët dhe 28-të të shtatzënisë. Në planin mjeko-ligjor glukozuria (edhe pse nuk ka të njejtën vlerë si jashtë shtatzënisë) është e detyrueshme të bëhet në çdo konsultim obstetrical kur ajo është pozitive, është e rëndësishme të bëhet glicemia esëll dhe 2 orë pas ngrënies. Faktorët e rrezikut për të zhvilluar diabet në shtatzëni: Obeziteti Diabeti Gestacional është një nga problemet më të zakonshme shëndetësore në shtatzëninë e vajzave. Ndërsa predispozicioni gjenetik luan një rol kyç në shfaqjen e tij, faktorë të tjerë si stili i jetesës dhe aktiviteti fizik gjithashtu kanë një ndikim të rëndësishëm. Në këtë artikull, ne kërkojmë të analizojmë lidhjen midis aktivitetit fizik gjatë shtatzënisë dhe rrezikut të diabetit gestacional.Studimi theksoi një ndërlidhje pozitive midis aktivitetit fizik në shtatzëni dhe zvogëlimit të rrezikut të diabetit gestacional. Gratë shtatëzënë që përfshiheshin në rutina të rregullta të ushtrimeve shfaqën një shans më të ulët për të zhvilluar diabet gestacional krahasuar me ato që kishin një nivel më të ulët të aktivitetit fizik.Kjo zbulim tregon se aktiviteti fizik në shtatzëni ka një rol të rëndësishëm në menaxhimin dhe parandalimin e diabetit gestacional, një gjendje që mund të ketë pasojat e rënda për nënën dhe fetusin. Stabilizimi i niveleve të sheqerit në gjak dhe ndikimi pozitiv në kontrollin metabolic janë mekanizma të mundshëm që shpjegojnë këtë lidhje.Për gratë shtatëzënë, ky zbulim mund të interpretohet si një arsye shtesë për të përfshirë aktivitetin fizik në rutinën e tyre të përditshme, duke krijuar kështu një mjedis shëndetësor më të favorshëm për veten dhe të ardhmen e tyre të re.Studimi ka për objekt të kryejë një analizë të thelluar mbi ndikimin e aktivitetit fizik në shëndetin e grave shtatëzënë, me një përqendrim të veçantë në zvogëlimin e rrezikut të diabetit gestacional. Për të arritur këtë objektiv, studimi përfshin një numër të madh të pjesëmarrësve shtatëzënë dhe regjistrime të rregullta të nivelit të aktivitetit fizik që ata kryejnë gjatë periudhës së shtatzënisë. 399 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Symimet e studimit përfshijnë: Analizën e të dhënave të Aktivitetit Fizik: Përmes pyetësorëve dhe regjistrimeve të aktivitetit fizik, do të analizohen nivelet dhe llojet e aktivitetit të kryer nga pjesëmarrësit në studim gjatë çdo trimestri të shtatzënisë.Vlerësimin e Shëndetit të Pjesëmarrësve: Symimet përfshijnë monitorimin e shëndetit të grave shtatëzënë, duke përfshirë kontrollin e peshës, tensionin arterial, dhe nivelin e sheqerit në gjak për të identifikuar ndonjë ndryshim apo rregullim në shëndetin e tyre.Identifikimin e Rasteve të Diabetit Gestacional: Duke analizuar të dhënat e rezultateve të testeve të glukozës, studimi synon identifikimin e rasteve të diabetit gestacional ndër pjesëmarrësit dhe krahasimin e tyre me nivelet e aktivitetit fizik.Krahasimin me Grupa Kontrolle: Pjesëmarrësit do të ndahen në grupe bazuar në nivelin e aktivitetit fizik, duke përfshirë një grup kontrol pa ndonjë ndërhyrje të veçantë, për të vlerësuar ndryshimet në rrezikun e diabetit gestacional sipas niveleve të aktivitetit.Ky plan i hulumtimit synon të ofrojë një kuptim më të thellë të lidhjes midis aktivitetit fizik në shtatzëni dhe shëndetit të grave, duke përqëndruar veçanërisht në rrezikun e diabetit gestacional.Metodologjia e këtij studimi është struktuar nëpërmjet një seri hapat e përcaktuara për të siguruar një analizë të saktë dhe të detajuar të ndikimit të aktivitetit fizik në shëndetin e grave shtatëzënë, duke thelluar përqendrimin në rrezikun e diabetit gestacional. Këtu janë hapat kryesorë të metodologjisë:Seleksioni i Pjesëmarrësve: Pjesëmarrësit janë zgjedhur në mënyrë që të përfaqësojnë një grup reprezentativ të grave shtatëzënë. Kriteret e përfshirë përfshijnë moshën, indeksin e masës trupore, dhe historinë e shëndetit shtatzanë.Krijimi i Pyetësorëve dhe Regjistrimeve të Aktivitetit Fizik: Është zhvilluar një pyetësor i strukturuar dhe një sistem regjistrimi për të matur nivelin dhe llojet e aktivitetit fizik të kryer nga pjesëmarrësit gjatë çdo trimestri të shtatzënisë.Monitorimi i Shëndetit të Pjesëmarrësve: Shëndeti i grave shtatëzënë është monitoruar duke përfshirë kontrollin e peshës, tensionin arterial, dhe nivelin e sheqerit në gjak në periudhën e përcaktuar gjatë shtatzënisë.Identifikimi i Rasteve të Diabetit Gestacional: Rezultatet e testeve të glukozës janë regjistruar dhe analizuar për të identifikuar rastet e diabetit gestacional midis pjesëmarrësve.Analiza e të Dhënave: Të dhënat janë analizuar duke përdorur mjetet statistikore të përshtatshme për të vlerësuar lidhjet dhe ndryshimet në nivelet e aktivitetit fizik dhe rrezikun e diabetit gestacional.Krahasimi me Grupa Kontrolle: Pjesëmarrësit janë ndarë në grupe bazuar në nivelin e aktivitetit fizik, duke përfshirë një grup kontrol, për të bërë krahasime dhe vlerësime më të saktë të ndikimit të aktivitetit fizik në rrezikun e diabetit gestacional.Kjo metodologji është projektuar për të siguruar një përcaktim të saktë të lidhjeve midis aktivitetit fizik në shtatzëni dhe shëndetit të grave, duke ofruar një bazë të qëndrueshme 400 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal për vlerësimin e rrezikut të diabetit gestacional.Objekti i këtij artikulli është të vlerësojë lidhjen midis aktivitetit fizik gjatë shtatzënisë dhe rrezikut të diabetit gestacional.Metodologjia e këtij studimi përfshin një shqyrtim sistematik të literaturës për të identifikuar studimet e rëndësishme dhe rezultatet e tyre në lidhje me aktivitetin fizik gjatë shtatzënisë dhe diabetin gestacional. Një analizë meta-sintetike është zhvilluar për të përpiluar dhe vlerësuar të dhënat nga këto studime të përfshira, duke përdorur metoda statistikore për të vlerësuar forcat dhe lidhjet e mundshme midis variablave të interesit. Në përfundim, synimet e këtij studimi janë të ofrojnë një kuptim më të thellë dhe të qëndrueshëm të ndikimit të aktivitetit fizik në rrezikun e diabetit gestacional dhe të kontribuojnë në literaturën ekzistuese për këtë temë Metodologjia Metodologjia jonë përfshin një shqyrtim sistematik të literaturës për të identifikuar studimet e rëndësishme të kryera në këtë fushë.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction: The recent Covid-19 pandemic has highlighted the crucial role of pharmacists in managing health emergencies (2). In this context, this scientific study specifically analyzes the responsibilities and contributions of pharmacists in the fight against the pandemic, delving into aspects of patient education, specialized counseling, and ensuring the availability of necessary medications (1). Pharmacists, as part of the healthcare workforce, are at the forefront of assistance for patients and the community during health crises (3). Their role in patient education is closely linked to the transmission of important information regarding preventive measures, symptoms, and medication usage (6).In this regard, pharmacists serve as significant sources of education, conveying current and reliable information to the community (7). Their specialized counseling helps patients manage illness and minimize health risks for themselves and others. Additionally, the role of pharmacists includes ensuring the availability of necessary medications. They are responsible for monitoring stock and ensuring that patients have continuous access to their treatment (5). In this way, pharmacists play an essential role in supporting the healthcare system and ensuring appropriate care for patients during emergency situations.This article aims to convey the pharmacist's intervention in pandemic management from a scientific perspective, identifying challenges and achievements, as well as suggesting possibilities for improving their preparedness and response in the future (3). By thoroughly analyzing the pharmacist's contribution during challenging health crises, we aim to assist in enhancing their role and awareness of their significance in global health (9). The objective of this study, in an inductive manner, is the readiness and educational role of the pharmacist in pandemic management. Specifically, the focus of this study is on the Educational Role of the Pharmacist: Counseling and Assistance for Patients: 100 questionnaires were distributed to 100 pharmacies, with 7 questions each. They were distributed through "Geca," and data were collected over a 2-month period.(8,9)The aim is to examine how pharmacists provide specialized advice and assistance to patients in managing symptoms, using medications, and generally treating them during health emergencies. Descriptive studies are part of a simple situation announcement and do not aim to uncover causes of events or establish causal relationships. This study provides a detailed description of reality at a specific moment in time, such as the entire pandemic period, aiding in understanding the context and characteristics of a specific phenomenon to achieve our goal.(7.)This was conducted indirectly through questionnaires. In this descriptive study, the aim is to present and describe solely their role in this unprecedented situation and the process of managing and supplying necessary medications.(5) In this specific case, a methodology and plan used to understand the situation 425 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal and ensure the preparation and distribution of medications in a specific period and context are described, using a questionnaire as a tool to gather necessary information. The study aims to analyze and focus on the role and contribution of pharmacists in the treatment and managerial aspect during the pandemic, including their specific responsibilities in patient education and counseling.Specifically, it aims to analyze the pharmacist's responsibility in ensuring the availability of necessary medications and managing stock during Covid-19. This includes monitoring the availability of essential medications and ensuring that patients have continuous access to those medications needed during the pandemic. Additionally, it aims to identify specific challenges that pharmacists may face during pandemics and draw lessons that can be used to improve their preparedness and response in the future. This includes assessing the problems and challenges pharmacists have faced during the Covid19 pandemic and proposing measures to address them in the future.Furthermore, it seeks to understand how pharmacists' activities in pandemic management impact public health and improve the healthcare system overall. This includes the pharmacist's role in educating the public about the pandemic, explaining preventive measures, symptoms, and health risks. In this way, it aims to understand how pharmacists are involved in enhancing public awareness and contribute to improving the overall response to the pandemic and healthcare system. Methodology: We reviewed and scheduled foreign and Albanian literature related to the pandemic, its consequences, and management. We identified the issues and developed questionnaires related to our hypothesis. We distributed the questionnaires to 10 pharmacies with the help of distributor GeC and allowed sufficient time to collect the data. We analyzed and reached respective conclusions regarding the focus of our study. Experiment: This study is a descriptive exploratory study, and we chose experimental forms of questionnaires to achieve our aim. The questionnaires were designed with a focus on our goal to highlight the role of the pharmacist in whether they were adequately educated or not during this unprecedented situation. The questionnaire was distributed to several pharmacies through distributor GeCa s one, and the distributor of medications or tools for the treatment or protection of patients with COVID-19 had their access. The subjects recruited were random without age or gender restrictions, all above 18 years old who completed the questionnaire anonymously and without our presence. Ideally, this questionnaire will be used as a tool to collect important information that will help in developing appropriate strategies and ensuring the necessary supply for the treatment of patients with COVID-19. 426 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Analysis and Discussion: The study described above, which deals with the use of a questionnaire to organize the preparation and distribution of medications related to the treatment of patients with COVID-19, appears to be more of a descriptive study. In a descriptive study, the aim is to present and describe the characteristics, features, and processes in a clear and suitable manner. In the specific case, a methodology and plan used to understand the situation and to ensure the preparation and distribution of medications in a specific period and context are described, using a questionnaire as a tool to collect important information.Descriptive studies are part of a simple announcement of the situation and do not aim to uncover the causes of events or establish causal relationships. They provide a detailed description of reality at a specific point in time and help in understanding the context and characteristics of a specific phenomenon.The study aims to examine the role of the pharmacist during health crisis periods, including pandemic management as a case study. In this analysis, questionnaires distributed to 100 pharmacies through distributor GeC were used to gather pharmacists' perspectives on their contribution during the pandemic.Regarding the pharmacist's educational role, the results show that the majority of pharmacists are involved in providing necessary information to patients regarding preventive measures and medication use. This involvement is valued as a key contribution to public awareness and minimizing infection risks. In terms of counseling and assistance for patients, pharmacists indicated they are available to offer their specialized advice on symptom treatment and medication use. This represents an important aspect of their engagement in improving healthcare during emergency situations.However, the analysis also indicates some challenges and opportunities for improvement in pharmacist preparation and role during the pandemic. The main challenge lies in medication availability and stock management, where some pharmacists reported issues in this aspect. This finding highlights the need for coordination and improvement of logistic processes to ensure continuous access to medications for patients.To enhance the pharmacist's role during the pandemic, it is important to address specific challenges identified through the analysis and propose concrete measures for improvement. The findings of this study can serve as a basis for recommendations and further research in the field of pharmacist preparation and role in managing health emergencies. 427 VI.

In this paper, we want to present the relevance of the popularization of STEM activities in the first cycle of compulsory education through the application of action research. Guided by contemporary recent literature, we will present: the role of teachers in improving teaching and extracurricular activities by applying action research with a focus on the popularization and implementation of the STEM concept in working with students. We will also present proposals for practical activities that teachers and parents can use in order to investigate natural phenomena and processes, as well as an example of good practice that shows us the positive effects and impacts that STEM activities have on children's engagement, curiosity and creativity. At the very end, we will present ideas for future action research that will unite teachers, students, and parents in the interest of popularizing STEM activities in the first cycle of primary education. Keywords: action research, STEM, reflective practice, partnership. 434 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INTRODUCTION One of the recommendations of modern educational work that would overcome the weaknesses of subject-class teaching is the integration of content that enables students to acquire better quality and long-lasting knowledge (Miletić, Golubović-Ilić & Cekić-Jovanović, 2020). In many educational systems, there are different strategies for the integration of teaching subjects, and one of the ,,most famous concepts applied in the American educational system is STEM” (Blagdanić & Banđur, 2018: 281). As the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) integrative educational concept is based on the study and connection of different teaching areas into one whole, which contributes to the development of cross-curricular competencies, in the paper we focus on the usefulness and relevance of action research in the function of popularizing the STEM learning concept . What makes this concept different from traditional teaching is that it includes ,,all educational activities during all developmental periods, in a formal but also informal sense” (Milošević, 2018: 180). Also, the STEM concept implies ,,acquiring knowledge about the functioning of natural, scientific and technical laws and rules and acquiring skills that involve solving problems, analytical way of thinking, developing and making logical conclusions and acquiring practical knowledge” (Ilić, Škorić & Subotin., 2020: 84) which represents an essential component of 21st century education. In order to apply the mentioned concept in the first cycle of basic education and upbringing, it is necessary for teachers to be motivated and competent, because most subject outcomes are achieved through the direct research activity of students with the continuous support of teachers (Pravilnik o programu nastave i učenja za prvi razred osnovnog obrazovanja i vaspitanja, 2018). Aggravating circumstances for the application of the STEM educational concept are ,,insufficiently flexible class schedule, formal teacher education - the concept of separate teaching methods for different subjects and the reluctance of a certain number of teachers to change their own methodological paradigms“ (Blagdanić & Banđur, 2018: 282). However, regardless of the aforementioned aggravating factors, research shows that teachers recognize the importance of the STEM concept and are ready for its implementation (Filipović, 2023). What teachers need, in order to apply the STEM concept in teaching in a better way, is professional development in the form of seminars, round tables or gatherings where examples of good practice will be exchanged. Since one of the goals of the Education Development Strategy in Serbia until 2030 is to improve the system of professional training that will contribute to the application of what has been learned in everyday work, improve the quality of teaching, and therefore the quality of student learning, one of the topics should also be the 435 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal possibilities and ways of applying STEM concept in the first cycle of basic education and upbringing. By representing the STEM concept, school practice can be improved, and the knowledge gained through this integrative model provides an opportunity for students to learn in an original and creative way. For this reason, in this work we point to the application of action research in the function of popularizing the STEM concept. ,,It is considered that action pedagogical research is the most effective, the most direct and the most natural way of simultaneously changing and improving (improving) educational practice“ (Knežević Florić & Ninković, 2012: 101). Accordingly, ,,the educator - action researcher, organizes activities, identifies the existing situation and problems that he strives to innovate, by introducing certain changes in the educational process and re-analyzes and evaluates the achieved results and the effects of the implemented changes“ (Dedaj, 2019: 88). Many researches based on implemented action research show positive outcomes (e.g. Osmanović & Mihajlović, 2014; Maksimović, Milanović & Osmanović Zajić, 2022; Milanović, 2023), which indicates the need for their more frequent representation in school practice in the context of its innovation, improvement and modernization. Research in the field of upbringing and education indicates the importance of involving parents (e.g. Polovina, 2011; Tokić, 2015; Milanović, 2021). ,,It is expected that the parent, as a partner in educational work, actively participates in various school activities“ (Kuveljić & Jović, 2013: 122), whereby parents can apply the STEM concept at home and actively participate in STEM activities at school. With this theoretical paper, we point to the practical application of action research in the aspect of popularizing the STEM concept and improving school practice through the active participation and engagement of parents and students. TEACHERS AND PARENTS IN THE WORLD OF STEM CONCEPTS Authors in our country and abroad (e.g. Elliot, 1991; Maksimović, 2010; Maksimović & Cenić, 2013; Laudonia, Mamlok-Naaman, Abels, & Eilks, 2018) present different and very interesting topics about action research. By focusing on that ,,conducting quality researches does not only inform teaching and learning but empowers teachers to become more reflective of their roles and responsibilities in the clasroom, and for schools to improve the delivery of quality education for the students” (Barcelona, 2020: 517). In this part, we will present some examples that can serve as an idea for modernizing school practice with action research through the popularization of the STEM concept of learning through the participation of parents.As most subject outcomes are realized through the research activity of children and the support of teachers, it is desirable, 436 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal whenever possible, to include interaction with parents, who, in accordance with their knowledge and capabilities, can contribute to the realization of teaching and extracurricular activities. According to the Law on Basic Education and Upbringing (2023), the school is obliged to implement extracurricular activities, and one of them is in the field of science in order to strengthen the educational activity of the school, encourage individual interests and inclinations of children, but also meaningful and purposeful use of free time. The law provides for a program of cooperation with the family, which represents the organization of an open school day every month, when parents can attend educational work and thus get involved in the realization of the STEM concept. Acquaintance and participation of parents in such activities will give them the opportunity to realize these activities with their children at home. As part of such activities, the students' parents would come and create STEM materials together, learn and collaborate. This gathering is also an opportunity for parents to present STEM activities, games and toys that they have realized and constructed with their children at home. Students, on the open day, can demonstrate certain experiments, point out their importance and present what they have learned, what knowledge and skills they have developed, and teachers can present new examples, games and toys for exploring some other natural phenomena and processes using of STEM concepts. Teachers can survey or interview parents and students about participation in activities and workshops, in order to get feedback on their impressions and opinions about the preparation of materials and the application of STEM learning concepts, because feedback and suggestions.Analysis of the Rulebook on the teaching and learning program for the first, second, third and fourth grade of primary education (Pravilnik o programu nastave i učenja za prvi razred osnovnog obrazovanja i vaspitanja, 2018; Pravilnik o programu nastave i učenja za drugi razred osnovnog obrazovanja i vaspitanja, 2018; Pravilnik o programu nastave i učenja za treći razred osnovnog obrazovanja i vaspitanja, 2019; Pravilnik o programu nastave i učenja za četvrti razred osnovnog obrazovanja i vaspitanja, 2019) it can be seen that there is a lot of power for the application of the STEM concept, because with the amendment of the Rulebook, the contents do not have the character of prescribed, but recommended contents, so it depends on the competence, motivation and creativity of the teacher whether and in what way they will apply the STEM concept in their work. In the paper, we specifically consider examples related to content about movement, magnetic and electrical properties of materials, after which concrete solutions will be offered for connecting related content as a whole, because the teacher's role is to enlighten students and create a complete picture, not to teach interprets the contents as biological, geographical, historical and other contents (Pravilnik o programu 437 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal nastave i učenja za prvi razred osnovnog obrazovanja i vaspitanja, 2018).The content on movement in the Teaching and Learning Programs for the first cycle of basic education and upbringing is viewed as a physical phenomenon about which students have significant knowledge, but the task of the teacher is to make experiential knowledge a function of a better understanding of the world that surrounds them (Pravilnik o programu nastave i učenja za prvi razred, 2018). As the contents of movement are studied in all four grades within the first cycle of basic education and upbringing, they are distributed and developed according to a spiralascending model, in accordance with the age characteristics of the children, which means that the same topic is expanded and deepened from grade to grade. Content about movement can be classified into three units: - basic determinants of movement as a phenomenon; - factors affecting body movement; - different forms of body movement (Blagdanić & Banđur, 2018: 181). All three units are suitable for the application of STEM learning concepts, but we will refer to some of them in the paper. In the realization of the STEM activity, in order for the students to explore different forms of movement of the body according to the path (straight and curvilinear), they used a base on which they poured salt and shaped the paths (picture 1) and thus observed rectilinear and curvilinear movement. They expanded the research by using objects of different shapes that they tried to move on the surface of the same name and examined which factors influence the movement of the body. In order to determine the direction and direction in which the movement takes place, as well as different ways to start and stop the body, they used a polygon with different obstacles (picture 2). Picture 1. Straight and curvilinear movement 438 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Picture 2. Determining the direction and direction in which the movement takes place In contrast to the content about movement, students examine the magnetic properties of materials (natural magnets, the possibility of magnetizing the body and the properties they then manifest) in the fourth grade of the first cycle of basic education and upbringing. As the understanding of these phenomena is demanding for students of this age, because they are not immediately accessible to the senses (Pravilnik o programu nastave i učenja za četvri razred, 2019) recommends that one should dwell on the manifestations of magnetism in everyday life through trials or experiments. At an early age, children gain experience in using magnetic toys and applying magnets in everyday life, but it is important that through research STEM activities, we point out to students the material error that magnets attract all metals (Blagdanić & Banđur, 2018). In order not to make such a generalization, students have different metals at their disposal in order to independently conclude that a magnet attracts objects made of only some metals (picture 3). One of the STEM activities that the students had was to create toys from the offered metals and magnets and in this way they also investigated what they could use to create a magnetic toy (picture 4). Also, in this way, they gained knowledge about other ways of applying magnets in everyday life. 439 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Picture 3. Objects made of which materials are attracted to a magnet? Picture 4. Constructing magnetic toys In order to investigate the effect of magnets through different substrates, the students had certain problem tasks (some of them are: how can you, using the given objects, move Santa Claus without touching him, how can you write a name or draw something on the substrate, and to 440 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal add salt...) and using substrates prepared from different materials, examined one of the properties of the magnet (picture 5). Picture 5. Through which materials does the magnet work?In order to investigate the poles of magnets and to observe that different poles attract, and those with the same name repel, we used magnetic sticks, a substrate that was compressed for researching content about movement, and magnetic cars - the students made using cars and magnets (picture 6). Picture 6. Magnet attraction and repulsion 441 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal In the first cycle of basic education and upbringing, students study and research the electrical properties of materials in the fourth grade. The recommendation of the Rulebook on the teaching and learning program for the fourth grade (2019) is to test the electrical conductivity of materials using a simple circuit with a battery and a light bulb, and in this way students gain knowledge about the flow of electric current, parts of the circuit (source, conductor, consumer electric currents) but also about the reasons why cables are made of metal and coated with plastic and/or rubber (conductors/insulators of electric current). In this way, students research and acquire knowledge about the electrical conductivity of materials that they can apply in everyday life, because it ,,represents the basis for understanding the safety risks of using electricity, using the examples of handling electrical appliances in the household” (Pravilnik o programu nastave i učenja za četvrti razred, 2019: 45). The pictures show examples that children, in cooperation with students, teachers, and parents, realized through STEM activities in order to examine the electrical properties of materials. Picture 7. Electrical conductivity of materials The teacher, depending on the outcome he wants to achieve, should encourage students to engage in various activities that involve individual senses or multiple senses at the same time. It needs to empower students to research and analyze natural phenomena and processes, which the STEM concept encourages. 442 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal The presented examples open opportunities for modern teachers to improve teaching in school practice by applying action research, cooperate with parents, improve the relationship and encourage active learning in children. CONCLUSION The presented topic opens up many ideas for further research that would focus on the practical application of action research in the field of popularizing the STEM concept through the participation of teachers, parents and students. Organizing workshops based on the STEM concept through the involvement of psychologists, pedagogues, school teachers, STEM subject teachers, parents and students opens another practical idea. Certainly, the volunteer participation of students, future educators and teachers can be of great benefit both to them in terms of empowerment and preparation for the professional role of a pedagogical worker, as well as to other participants. Action research, extracurricular activities, popularization of the STEM concept of learning and the involvement of parents is another idea that would improve school practice, bring interesting things, innovations and strengthen family-school relations. A very interesting paper points to the popularization of science and STEM concepts in the school library (Radovanović & Duković, 2020), which opens up the possibility of improving work in this aspect as well through action research. The development of teachers' professional competences, through the application of action research, the popularization of STEM learning and partnership with parents open up ideas for practitioners to implement activities in practice. Certainly, the improvement of the existing practice with the presented examples opens a window to modern practitioners for ideas that they can apply in their daily work and make the school a place of joy, happiness, fun - a place that children adore. 443 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal OPTIMIZATION OF EXHAUST EMISSIONS OF A DIESEL ENGINE USING DIFFERENT PROPORTIONS OF ALCOHOL DIESEL FUEL BLENDS ABSTRACT In today's world, the demand for and consumption of fossil fuels are increasing in line with the pace of countries' development. Diesel engines are widely used in many fields such as industry, agriculture, aviation, and railways due to their high efficiency and durability. Diesel engines are one of the main causes of exhaust emissions such as nitrogen oxides (NOx), hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), and smoke density. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of using blends of diesel and methanol in diesel engines as ternary mixtures (5%, 10%, 15%) on exhaust emissions and to obtain optimum values using Response Surface Methodology. Experiments were conducted on a 4-stroke 6-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine. The Response Surface Methodology (RSM) model was developed using experimental data. Methanol ratio and engine speed were selected as input parameters, while nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide, and hydrocarbon emissions were selected as response parameters. The optimum values of the input parameters were found to be 15% methanol ratio and 1667 rpm engine speed, respectively. The corresponding NOx, CO, and HC responses to these optimum values are 890.7 ppm, 77.21 ppm, and 20.4 ppm, respectively. It was found that the developed mathematical model can be effectively used to predict engine emissions. Keywords: Methanol, diesel engine, emissions, optimization, RSM 447 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Günümüzde taşımacılık, sanayi ve kentsel sektörlerdeki hızlı büyüme ile enerji ihtiyaçları küresel olarak aynı hızda artmaktadır (Dubey ve ark,2023). Fosil yakıtlar, dünyanın enerji taleplerini karşılamak için önemli kaynaklardır (Asokan ve ark, 2019). Sıkıştırmalı ateşlemeli (CI) motorlar, taşımacılık, tarım ve enerji üretimi uygulamalarında sürekli olarak kullanılmaktadır (Atmanlı ve Yılmaz 2021). Son dönemde artan küresel enerji talebi, azalan petrol rezervleri ve dünya politikasındaki istikrarsızlık, fosil yakıt piyasasını önemli ölçüde etkilemiştir. Fosil yakıtların içten yanmalı motorlarda yakılması, egzoz emisyonlarına bağlı olarak küresel ısınma, iklim değişiklikleri ve sera gazlarının etkileri gibi büyük olumsuzluklara neden olur (Baranitharan, 2019). Hidrokarbon (HC), azot oksit (NOx) ve karbon monoksit (CO) emisyonlarının salınımının çevreye olumsuz etkiler vardır (Shadrack ve ark. 2023). Bu faktörler, araştırmacıları ve motor üreticilerini çevre dostu, kolayca temin edilebilen ve stabil motor işletmesi sağlayan alternatif yakıtları aramaya yönlendirmiştir (Hasan ve ark., 2021).Biyokütle kaynaklarından biyokimyasal süreçlerle elde edilen alkoller, yenilenebilir ve temiz yanma özelliğine sahip karbon temelli yakıtlara doğru bir yol sunma potansiyeline sahiptir (At-manlı ve ark, 2015). Alkol yakıtları, bol miktarda üretim avantajına, yüksek oksijen içeriğine, atmosfer sıcaklığında ve basıncında sıvı halde bulunma özelliğine ve ekonomik avantajlara sahip olarak, en umut vaat eden alternatif yakıtlardan biri olarak kabul edilmiştir (Chen ve ark, 2022). Özellikle etanol ve metanol, uzun yıllardır alternatif yakıtlar olarak değerlendirilmektedir (Yao ve ark, 2010).Optimizasyon yöntemleri deneme sayısını azaltır, matematiksel optimizasyon modelleri geliştirir ve cevapları tahmin eder (Dubey ve ark. 2022). Yanıt yüzey metodolojisi pek çok alanda karmaşık süreçleri geliştirmek, iyileştirmek ve optimize etmek için kullanılır (Betiku ve ark, 2014). Yanıt yüzey metodu çok sayıda araştırmacı tarafından test sayısını azaltmak için seçilmiştir (Uslu, 2020). Bu çalışmayı yürütmek için, egzoz gazı emisyonları, Yanıt Yüzey Metodolojisi (RSM) kullanılarak modellenmiştir. Bu modelleme yöntemi, yeterli deneysel veri sağlandığında tercih edilen çıkış değişkenlerini değerlendirir. YYM, sayısal bir optimizasyon tekniği ve işlemleri ve ürün tasarımlarını optimize etmek için istatistiksel bir tasarımın bir seçkisidir (Patel ve ark. 2018)Giriş parametrelerini tasarlamak ve egzoz emisyonları ile ilgili analizleri yapmak için yüzey yanıt metodolojisi kullanılmıştır. Deney Tasarımı (DoE) kavramı, minimum deneme sayısıyla maksimum varyasyon aralığını değerlendirmek için sunulur.Literatür incelendiğinde, birçok araştırmacının dizel motorun egzoz emisyonları üzerinde alkol kullanımının etkilerini araştırdığı görülmektedir. Ancak, sadece birkaç araştırmacının, alkol ve yakıt karışımlarının 448 VI.

Bu çalışmanın amacı, metanol dizel yakıt karışımlarının Yüzey yanıt metodolojisine dayalı merkezi kompozit modeli kullanarak egzoz emisyonlarını (NOx, CO, HC) optimize etmek ve egzoz emisyonlarını minimize etmektir.

Sonuçlar Tablo 4'te gösterilmiştir. ANOVA analizine göre, model terimleri için p-değerleri 0.05'ten küçük olduğunda anlamlıdır. Belirleme katsayısı R², uyumlu modellerin kalitesini belirlemede kullanılmıştır. Memnuniyet verici bir model uyumu elde etmek için R²'nin 1.0'a yakın olması gerekmektedir (Singh ve ark. 2019). Ayrıca, modelin uygunluğu, regresyon katsayısı (R²), 451 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal düzeltilmiş regresyon katsayısı (Ayarlanmış R²) ve tahmin edilen çoklu belirleme katsayısı (Tahmini R²) kullanılarak test edilmiştir. NOx, CO ve HC emisyonları için R² değerleri Tablo 5’e göre sırasıyla 0.9996, 0.9999 ve 0.9992 olarak bulunmuştur. Modelin regresyon katsayısı R² değerlerinin oldukça yüksek olduğu gözlemlenmiştir. Bu, modelde kullanılan ikinci dereceden regresyonun deneysel tasarımdaki herhangi bir değişkendeki yanıt faktörlerini hesaplamak için uygun olabileceğini göstermiştir.

Metanol içeren dizel yakıt karışımlarında, saf dizel yakıta kıyasla azot oksit (NOx) emisyonlarında bir azalma görülmektedir. Bu azalma, karışımdaki alkol yüzdesi ile artmaktadır. Bu durumun, alkolün (daha düşük kalorifik değere sahip olması nedeniyle) sıcaklığı düşürme etkisinden kaynaklanabileceği düşünülmektedir. Bu etki, alkolün oksijen içeriği ve daha düşük setan sayısının (ve dolayısıyla daha uzun yanma gecikmesinin) karşıt etkisini neredeyse dengelemektedir. Bu da olası olarak, karışımın ön 452 VI.

Metanol karışım oranı ve motor hızı karşısında NOx emisyonları için 3 boyutlu yüzey grafiği CO Emisyonu Motor işletme değişkenlerinin CO emisyonu üzerindeki etkileri Şekil 3’te gösterilmektedir. Alkol karışımı yakıtların CO emisyon değerleri, saf dizel yakıtına kıyasla azalmıştır. CO emisyonun azalma sebebi, alkol yakıtlarının dizel yakıtına kıyasla daha yüksek oksijen içeriğine sahip olmalarıdır. Ayrıca, alkol-dizel yakıt karışımları, dizel yakıtına kıyasla daha düşük stokiyometrik A/F oranına sahiptir; karışımların stokiyometrik A/F oranları, dizel yakıtınınkinden daha düşüktür. Sonuç olarak, test edilen karışımlar daha düşük CO emisyonu vermektedir (Rakopoulos ve ark., 2008). Şekil 3.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal HC Emisyonu Alkol yakıtlarının HC emisyon değerleri, saf dizel yakıtına kıyasla artmıştır. Alkol eklenmesiyle HC emisyonlarında artışın nedeni, alkol karışımlarının daha yüksek buharlaşma ısısı nedeniyle buharlaşmanın daha yavaş olması ve bu nedenle daha yavaş ve daha kötü yakıthava karışımı sağlanması, artan sprey penetrasyonunun istenmeyen şekilde odacık duvarlarına yakıt çarpmasına (ve bu nedenle alevin sönmesine) ve halka boşluk bölgelerinde yumuşama ve yastıklanmaya neden olmasına bağlanabilir (Rakopoulos ve ark., 2008).

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INTRODUCTION Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is a multi-purpose legume crop widely cultivated in subSaharan Africa (SSA) (Abady et al., 2019). Groundnut otherwise known as Arachis hypogaea is regarded as one of the most important protein- rich and it occupies the fifth position as oilseed crop globally (El-Sayed et al., 2001). It is grown as annual crop on about 19 million hectares of land in tropical regions and the warmer areas of temperate regions of the world (Adejumo et al., 2005; Davies, 2009). Groundnut is cultivated on 26.4 million ha with production of 37.10 million metric tons worldwide. Developing countries constitute 97% of the global area and 94% of the global production of this crop (FAOSTAT, 2008). The manual processing of groundnut are time consuming and laborious, the condition prevalent at this level is generally unsanitary and inherent unhygienic conditions. The knowledge of physical and mechanical properties of groundnut like any other biomaterial is fundamental because it facilitates the design and development of equipment for harvesting, handling, conveying, cleaning, delivering, separation, packing, storing, drying, mechanical oil extraction and processing of agricultural products, their physical properties have to be known (Mohsenin, 1980; Aviara et al., 2013). Presently, the equipment used in processing groundnut have been generally designed without taken into cognizant the physical properties of groundnut which include the size, mass, bulk density, true density, sphericity, porosity, coefficient of static friction, angle of repose and resultant systems leads to reduction in working efficiency and increase in product losses (Manuwa and Afuye, 2004). Researchers around the world has published various results and findings with respect to groundnut. Although, some focused on the mechanical, some researched on aerodynamics properties while some emphasized the micro and macro nutrients to make it fit for storage purposes. According to Firouzi et al. (2009) who posits that physical properties of a material is proportional to the available moisture content of that biomaterials. He emphasized that the static friction, surface area, angle of repose and dimensions are all subjected to the moisture content of the material. The findings of Firouzi et al. (2009) are similar to that of Aydin (2007) but there was a disparity when comparing it to the works of Olajide and Igbeka (2003). Meanwhile, Bagheri et al. (2011), worked on the mechanical and rheological properties of groundnut. His research indicated that the rupture force has an upward trend from initial moisture content to a certain amount of moisture content, whereas after that moisture content the rupture force have a decent tendency after subjecting the groundnut to various stress and strain. He concluded that when the moisture content exceeds the moisture content value, the type of rupture converts to a doughy rupture progressively, for all of the tested varieties. 460 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal The result obtained was consistent with that of Braga et al. (1999) who also did same study on macadamia nut. In addition, the chemical properties of the groundnut were investigated by various researchers which include proximate analysis, physicochemical properties and mineral compositions. It was observed that the moisture content was 5.80%, ash content 3.08%, crude fibre 3.70%, crude protein 38.61%, fat content 47% and carbohydrate (by difference) 1.81%. The fat, protein and ash contents are similar to the reports of Nelson and Carlos (1995) which indicated the fat content among 29 cultivars range between 47.0%- 50.1%, protein 26.3%30.9%, and ash 2.4-2.7%. The moisture content and crude fibre content agreed with that of NAS (1980) of 5.0% and 3.0% respectively. Furthermore, the saponification value, of 193.20mgKOH/g agreed with Pearson’s (1981), 187-196mgKOH/g. The saponification value makes it useful in soap making. Iodine value 38.71g/100g indicates low degree of unsaturation and classified the oil as non-drying oil (80-100g/100g) as recorded for most edible oil Pearson (1981). Acid value of 5.99mgKOH/g which was close to Arachis (4.0mgKOH/g) by Pearson (1981) and Soyabean 4.279mgKOH/g (Akanni et al., 2005). The free fatty acid was 3.0mgKOH/g, this indicates some percentage of fatty acid present in the oil and that the oil may likely undergo oxidation.The basic engineering properties exhibited by agricultural materials which include mechanical, rheological, physical, thermal, electrical and electromagnetic properties. The ever-increasing importance of agricultural products together with the complexity of modern technology for their production, processing and storage need a better knowledge of their engineering properties so that machines, processes and handling operations can be designed for maximum efficiency and the highest quality of the final end products (Mohsenin, 1970). Adequate information is not available for the physical, mechanical and chemical properties of some varieties of groundnut kernel. This research aims to properly determine and evaluate the physical, chemical, proximate and mineral constituent of the groundnut for efficient designing of its processing materials by the Agricultural engineer and food processors. METHODOLOGY 2.1 Raw Materials, Equipment and Machine Used The material (groundnut kernel) was obtained from a local market in Akure, Ondo State, Nigeria, sub-Saharan Africa. The kernels were sorted visually for size, maturity level and physical damage. Aside from the bio-materials sourced, other items, equipment and machines used during the experiments includes: vernier calliper, measuring cylinder, electronic weighing 461 VI.

The percentage moisture was calculated using equation 1 as described by the Association of Official and Analytical Chemist (AOAC, 2005). Each sample of 5g was weighed using analytical balance into previously weighed Petri-dishes. The weighed sample in the petri dish was allowed to dry in an oven at 100- 105 0C for 3 hours. The sample was removed and cooled in desiccators to room temperature and the weight was noted, then it was returned into the oven at 105 0C for 30min until a constant weight was obtained for each sample. The differences in weight between each Petri-dish and dried residue was recorded as the percentage of the initial sample. 𝑚𝑐 = 𝑤1 −𝑤2 𝑤𝑠 𝑥100% (1) Where 𝑚𝑐 is the moisture content in %, 𝑤1 is the final weight of the crucible + sample in g, 𝑤2 is the initial weight of crucible + sample in g and 𝑤𝑠 is the weight of sample in g. 2.3.1.2 Determination of protein content The crude protein content was determined using Equations 2 and 3 as recommended by AOAC, 2005. A finely grounded sample of 0.5g was weighed into a digestion flask and kjeldahl catalyst tablet was added, 10 ml of concentrated. H2SO4 was added and digested for 4 hours until a clear solution was obtained (blue green color). The digest was cooled and transferred into 100 ml volumetric flask and made up to mark with distilled water. 20 ml of boric acid was dispensed into a conical flask and 5 drops of indicator and 75 ml of distilled water was added to it. 10 ml of the digest was dispensed into Kjedahl distillation flask, the conical and the distillation flask were fixed in place and 20 ml of 2% NaOH was added through the glass funnel into the digest. The steam exit was closed and timing started when the solution of the boric acid and indicator turned green. The distillation was done for 15 minutes and the distillate was titrated with 0.05NHCl solution till the appearance turned to pink colour. A blank was also run through all 463 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal steps as above. Therefore, the crude protein content was determined by multiplying percentage Nitrogen by a constant factor of 6.25. 𝑝𝑐 = 𝑛𝑥6.25 (2) Where, 𝑝𝑐 is the crude protein content in %, 𝑛 is the percentage total nitrogen 𝑛 = 𝑡𝑣 𝑥 𝑎𝑚𝑛 𝑥 𝑛𝐻𝑐𝑙 𝑥4 (3) Where, 𝑛 is the total nitrogen in %, 𝑎𝑚𝑛 is the atomic mass of nitrogen in g, 𝑛𝐻𝑐𝑙 is the normality of hydrochloric acid used in moles. 2.3.1.3 Determination of fat content Fat was determined by the ether extract method using the Soxhlet apparatus as described by the AOAC, 2005 (Equation 4). Fat was determined by ether extract method using Soxhlet apparatus. 1g of dried sample was weighed and wrapped in filter paper, placed in fat free thimble plugged lightly with cotton wool and extracted with petroleum ether (N-Hexane) in soxhlet apparatus set up for 5 hours. Water and heater were turned on to start extraction. After 4-6 siphoning, ether was allowed to evaporate and beaker was disconnected before the last siphoning. Extract was transferred into clean glass dish with ether washing and evaporated ether on water bath. The residue extract in dish was then placed in an oven at 105oC for 2 hours and cooled in a desiccator and weighed. 𝑓𝑐 = (𝑤𝑓𝑝 +𝑤𝑠 )−𝑤𝑟 𝑠𝑤 𝑥100% (4) Where, 𝑓𝑐 is the of fat content in %, 𝑤𝑓𝑝 is the weight of filter paper in g, 𝑤𝑠 is the weight of sample in g and 𝑠𝑤 is the sample weight in g. 2.3.1.4 Determination of ash content The percentage ash was calculated using (AOAC, 2005) as presented in Equation 5. Clean empty crucible was placed in a muffle furnace at 600oC for an hour, cooled in desiccator and weighed (𝑤1 ). One gram of each sample was weighed in crucible (𝑤2 ). The sample was ignited over a burner with the help of blowpipe until it is charred. Then the crucible was placed in a muffle furnace set at 550 0C and left for 12-24hrs. The appearances of gray white ash indicated complete oxidation of all organic matter in the sample. The crucible with the sample was cooled and weighed (𝑤3 ). 𝑎𝑐 = 𝑤3 −𝑤1 𝑤2 𝑥100% (5) 464 VI.

The sample 5g was accurately weighed into flask, 200 ml of running water and 1.25 ml H2SO4 was added. The mixture was heated under reflux for 30 minutes. The hot mixture was filtered through a fibre muslin cloth. The obtained filtrate was thrown off and the residue was returned to the fibre flask of which 200 ml of running water and 1.25g NaOH was added and heated for another 30 minutes. The residue was removed using N-hexane and ethanol and finally transferred into already weighed crucible. The crucible and the residue were oven dried at 105oC overnight to drive off the moisture. The oven dried crucible containing the residue was cooled in a desiccator and later weighed to obtain the W1. The crucible with W1 was transferred to the muffle furnace for ashing at 550 0C for 4 hours. 𝑐𝑓𝑐 = 𝑤1 −𝑤2 𝑤𝑠 𝑥100% (6) Where 𝑐𝑓𝑐 is the crude fibre content in %, 𝑤1is the oven dried crucible containing the residue in g, 𝑤2 is the crucible containing white or grey ash (Free of carbonaceous materials) in g and 𝑤𝑠 is the weight of sample in g. 2.3.1.6 Determination of carbohydrate content The total carbohydrate was determined by difference method using Equation 7 as described by AOAC, 2005. The sum of percentages moisture, ash, crude lipid, crude protein and crude fibre was subtracted from 100%. 𝐶𝑏ℎ = 100 − (𝑚𝑐 + 𝑝𝑐 + 𝑓𝑐 + 𝑎𝑐 + 𝑐𝑓𝑐) (7) Where 𝐶𝑏ℎ is the total carbohydrate in %, 𝑚𝑐 is the moisture content in %, 𝑝𝑐 is the protein content in %, 𝑓𝑐 is the fat content in %, 𝑎𝑐 is the ash content in %, and 𝑐𝑓𝑐 is the crude fibre content in %. 1.4 Determination of Physico-chemical characteristics The Physico-chemical characteristics such as free fatty acids, iodine value, peroxide value, and saponification value were determined according to the official method of analysis described by AOAC, 2005. 465 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 1.4.1 Determination of acid value or free fatty acids (FFA) The free fatty acid was determined by mixing twenty-five ml diethyl ether with twenty-five ml alcohol and 1ml phenolphthalein solution (1percent) and carefully neutralize with 0.1M KOH. The oil or melted fat of 1.10g was dissolved in the mixed neutral solvent and titrate with aqueous 0.1M KOH shaking constantly until a pink colour which persists for fifteen seconds is obtained 1.4.2 Determination of Iodine Value The iodine value was determined by pouring the oil into a small beaker. A small rod was added and weigh out a suitable quantity of the sample by difference into a dry glass stoppered bottle of about two 50ml capacity. The approximate weight in g of the oil to be taken was calculated by dividing 20 by the highest expected iodine value. Carbon tetrachloride of 10ml was added to the oil or melted fat and dissolve. 20ml of Wiji’s solution was added, the stopper was inserted (previously moistened with potassium iodine solution) and allow to stand in the dark for 30minutes. 15ml of potassium iodide solution (10percent) was added and 100ml water mixed and titrated with 0.1M thiosulphate solution using starch as indicator just before the end point. A blank was carried out at the same time commencing with 10ml of carbon tetrachloride. 1.4.3 Determination of peroxide value The peroxide value was determined by weighing out 1g of oil or fat into a clean dry boiling tube and while still liquid 1g powder of potassium iodide was added and 20ml of solvent mixture (2 vol. glacial acetic acid + 1 vol. chloroform). The tube was placed in boiling water so that the liquid boils within 30seconds and it was allowed to boil vigorously for not more than 30 seconds. The content was poured quickly into a flask containing 20ml of potassium iodide solution (five percent). The tube was washed twice with twenty-five ml of water and titrated with 0.002M sodium thiosulphate solution using starch. A blank was performed at the same time. 2.4.4 Determination of saponification value The saponification value was determined by weighing 2g of the oil or fat into a conical flask and adding exactly twenty-five ml of the potassium hydroxide solution. A reflux condenser was attached and heat the flask in boiling water for 30 seconds. 1ml of phenolphthalein (1percent) solution was added and titrated hot the excess alkali with 0.5M hydrochloric acid (titration). A blank was carried out at the same time (titration). 466 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 1.5 Mineral composition The mineral contents of the test samples were determined by the dry ash extraction method following each specific mineral element as described by AOAC (2000). 2g of the samples was burnt to ash on a muffle (as in ash determination and the resulting ash was dissolved in 20ml of dilute hydrochloric acid (1MHCl) and 20 ml of nitric acid, then diluted to 400ml volumetric flask using distilled water. The solution was used for the various analysis of mineral. 1.5.1 Determination of sodium content The sodium content of the samples was determined by photometric method. The instrument was set up according to the manufacture’s instruction. The equipment was switched on and allowed to stay for about 10min. The gas and air inlets were opened as the start knob was turned on. The equipment being self-igniting, the flame was adjusted to a non-luminous level until a blue colour was obtained. Meanwhile a standard Sodium solution was prepared and was diluted to concentrations of 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 ppm. Starting with the least concentration of 2 ppm, all the standard solution were sucked into the instrument and caused to spray over the non-luminous flame. The readings were recorded and later plotted into a standard curve and used to extrapolate to Sodium level in the sample. After the standard, the sample solutions were siphoned in turns into the instrument with their reading recorded. The concentration of the test mineral in the sample was calculated with reference to the curve and obtained with reference to Equation 8. 𝑚𝑔 𝑁𝑎100𝑔 = 100Vt 𝑋𝐷𝑊 (8) Where Na is the sodium content, Vt is the total extract volume, X is the concentration of Sodium from the graph, D is the dilution factor, and W is the weight of sample used. 2.5.2 Determination of magnesium, iron and calcium content Magnesium, iron and calcium were determined by Flame Atomic Absorption spectrophotometer, as described by AOAC, (2005). About 0.5ml of each sample was digested in 20 ml each of acid solution of HNO3, H2SO4. The corresponding solution was heated until white fumes appeared. The clear solution was diluted up to 50 ml with distilled water and filtered with Whatman filter paper no.1. The standard working solutions of elements of interest were prepared to make the standard calibration curve. Absorption for a sample solution uses the calibration curves to determine the concentration of particular element in that sample. Cathode lamps used as radiation source. Air acetylene gas was used for all the experiments. This method provides both sensitivity and selectivity since other elements in the sample will not generally 467 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal absorb the chosen wavelength and thus, will not interfere with the measurement. Triplicate experiments were performed for each sample. 2.6 Statistical Analysis The data obtained was analysed using the Microsoft Excel package 2019. The average value, standard deviation, minimum value and maximum value of the collected data were determined using the package. 3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The results obtained for groundnut kernel at 8.5% moisture content wet basis are presented in Tables 2, 3 and 4 respectively. 3.1 Physical Properties The measured parameters are average length, width, thickness. The derived parameters are geometric mean diameter, arithmetic mean diameter, surface area, aspect ratio, sphericity and porosity. At the moisture content level of 8.5%wb, Table 2 shows that the average length, width, thickness, geometric mean diameter and arithmetic mean diameter are (1.28 ± 0.18) cm, (0.81 ± 0.12) cm, (0.87 ± 0.12) cm, (0.96 ± 0.10) cm and (0.99 ± 0.09) cm respectively. The results are found to have a slight difference to that of Firouzi et al. (2009). The reliance on the three primary dimensions of length, width and thickness of the seed may be the cause of the increase in geometric property values. When assessing the projected area of a particle traveling through a turbulent or nearly turbulent region of an air stream, the geometric mean diameter is helpful. As a result, it is a helpful parameter to have when designing systems to separate seeds from other materials (Gharibzahedi et al., 2010). Olajide and Igbeka (2003) obtained the average groundnut kernel length, width, and thickness at 4.6% d.b., of 8.54, 3.55, and 6.93 mm, respectively. Corresponding values were 65.4, 41.3, and 13.7 mm for oilbean seeds (Oje and Ugbor, 1991) and 31.50, 23.70, and 22.00 mm for shear kernel (Olajide et al., 2000). As a result, groundnut kernels are smaller than shea kernels and oilbean seeds. Recently, Omobuwajo et al., 1999) emphasized the significance of these and other characteristic axial dimensions in determining aperture sizes and other parameters in machine design.When developing seed sizing, grading, and equipment for separating it from undesired materials (Ogunjimi et al., 2002), the values of these physical dimensions would be crucial factors to take into account.The results show that surface area, aspect ratio, sphericity and porosity are (2.92 ± 0.58) cm2, (0.64 ± 0.13) %, (0.76 ± 0.10) % and (45.42 ± 10.24) % respectively. The aspect ratio and sphericity of any grain or fruit determines its ability to roll or slide. The sphericity values indicate that the seed is almost spherical in shape and rolls easily on surfaces, particularly 468 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal in hoppers and dehulling machinery. Elevated sphericity and aspect ratio suggest that the seeds are heading toward a spherical form. These characteristics are helpful when designing equipment for dehulling. The true density of each kernel was derived from the ratio of true mass to true volume which constitute an important consideration for material selection, machine component design and design of groundnut processing machine. The result of sphericity obtained by Firouzi et al. (2009) is in contrary to that obtained from this finding. The average true mass and volume of groundnut kernel are (0.49 ± 0.12) g and (0.47± 0.13) cm3 while the true density is (1.08 ± 0.21) g/cm3. True density is useful in figuring out how to separate food products from unwanted ingredients because, as noted by Fellow (2000), leaning is a crucial step in the food processing process. Grain and kernel samples can be subjected to the sinking and floating method since the densities of all the food products (fruits, seeds, nuts, and kernels, among others) are higher than those of water. This is in contrary to the result obtained by Firouzi et al. (2009). The bulk mass and volume of the groundnut kernel are 41.27g and 72.50 cm3 while the bulk density is 0.569 g/cm3. The bulk density as reported by Firouzi et al. (2009) ranges from 0.539 g/cm3 to 0.435 g/cm3 which is slightly in contrary to result obtained from findings.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 3.2 Coefficient of Friction and Angle of Repose The average values of coefficient of static friction of groundnut kernel for different surfaces as shown in Table 3 as 0.29 ± 0.12 for wood,0.32 ± 0.15 for stainless steel, 0.37 ± 0.18 for mild steel and 0.32 ± 0.15 for glass. This information is useful in designing components such as the hopper, shaft etc and determination of machine performance evaluation parameters such as efficiency, throughput capacity, percentage broken seed etc. The angle of repose ranges from 4o to 33o. As reported by Bagheri et al. (2011) the result obtained from the coefficient of static friction of groundnut on different surfaces is in contrary to that obtained from findings. According to Olajide and Igbeka (2003), the average static coefficients of friction against plywood that had grain perpendicular to the direction of motion, galvanized steel, and both were 0.47, 0.54, and 0.57, respectively. The angle at which chutes must be positioned to achieve a consistent flow of material through the chute is determined using the static coefficient of friction.

The measured parameters are compressive force, toughness (strain energy) and Young’s modulus. The compressive force is needed to cause crop to rupture. The force required to rupture the groundnut kernel was about 11.28 ± 20.13 kN. Toughness or strain energy is defined as the energy absorbed by the groundnut kernel prior to the kernel rupture per unit volume (Burubai et al., 2008). Results showed toughness of the groundnut kernel as 20.99 ± 41.69 J. This is the measure of the stiffness and rigidity of the specimen. In other word it shows how easily the kernel surface can be deformed. The result obtained showed the value to be 531.56 ± 862.35 MPa. Comprehending the properties of agricultural materials in terms of stress, strain, and deformation is crucial for the development of equipment and 470 VI.

The measured parameters are the proximate composition, physico-chemical characteristics and mineral composition of groundnut kernel. 3.4.1 Proximate composition The mean values of the result obtained from proximate composition were as follows: Moisture Content (7.70 ± 0.01) %, Ash content (1.97 ± 0.02) %, Fat Content (42.69 ± 0.46) %, Crude fibre (3.90 ± 0.03) %, Crude protein (38.38 ± 0.18) %, and Carbohydrate content (5.37 ± 0.26) %. From the perspective of nutrition and textural quality, the total oil and protein content are significant. The prepared products' nutritional value and textural quality are crucial factors in determining their general acceptability (Sahadeva, 2014). The result for moisture content, crude fibre, crude protein and carbohydrate is slightly higher while the ash content and fat content is lower than that reported by Atasie et al. (2009).

The physico-chemical characteristics discussed by Atasie et al. (2009) differs from that in findings.

The result of mineral composition of groundnut obtained by Atasie et al. (2009) is in contrary to that obtained in findings. Zhao (2012) reported that each kilogram of shelled peanut kernels contained 35–45 g of peanut skin. A significant quantity of antioxidants found in peanut skins are beneficial to overall health. To reap the health benefits, the peanut skins are also added when making peanut butter. As a result, when the peanut butter with skins is prepared, the values in this study will aid in estimating the quantity of skins that may be present.

It is proposed that the effect of moisture content on the properties measured should be investigated. The engineering properties determined in this study constitute an important baseline data for the scientific design and development of various machines for handling and processing of the groundnut kernel. 473 VI.

Collaboration and coordination among nursing team members impact the quality of care provided in healthcare institutions. This review aimed to analyze and discuss the influence of nursing teamwork on the quality of care. It is an integrative review. The search for original articles of primary research was conducted in the second week of February 2024, in the Scopus database. The review was guided by the following question: “What is the literature’s perspective on the influence of nursing teamwork on the quality of care?” The terms used were: “nursing,” “teamwork,” and “care.” Original research articles published in English in scientific journals within the last 10 years, including nurses as participants, whose full texts were available online, and that met the review’s objectives were included. Initially, 14 articles were found, of which six were included in this review. The selected articles were assessed using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT). It was identified that the way nursing teams work varies according to the department; however, nursing teamwork always impacts the quality of care, regardless of the sector. It was also observed that role and function ambiguities, difficulties in adapting to changes, exhausting work schedules, poor communication, professional training failures, inadequate leadership styles and nursing shortages are among the obstacles to forming cohesive nursing teams. In conclusion, nursing professionals should receive education to work as a team. Additionally, nurse managers play fundamental roles in developing healthy work environments that promote the formation and maintenance of cohesive nursing teams. It is important to note that the leadership styles adopted by nurse managers guide the attitudes of other team members, as nurse managers are role models for their followers. Thus, collaboration, effective communication, and coordination among nursing team members are strongly influenced by nurse managers.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction Due to rapid population growth, extended life expectancy, increased public awareness of health, and the dissemination of advanced technologies in the field, the demand for healthcare services has gradually risen. Additionally, intense competition within the sector has heightened the importance of the concept of quality in healthcare, which is widely discussed nowadays (Alzoubi et al., 2023; García-Moyano et al., 2019). In the pursuit of quality in healthcare services, teamwork emerges as a fundamental element (Bhowmik, 2021; Monalisa et al., 2023). In this context, the role of the nursing team, which represents the largest professional group in healthcare institutions, holds a prominent position (Alzoubi et al., 2023; Bıyık & Türe, 2020; Sahputra et al., 2021).The quality in healthcare services goes beyond the mere execution of technical procedures; it is intrinsically linked to the ability to address not only the physical but also the psychosocial needs of patients and the community (Sahputra et al., 2021). Thus, quality nursing care is based on a holistic approach that recognizes the uniqueness of each individual. This approach encompasses empathy, effective communication, and attention to the cultural and emotional characteristics of individuals (Frisch & Rabinowitsch, 2019). As members of the nursing team are consistently close to patients, they play fundamental roles in ensuring the quality of healthcare in addition to acting as important links between other healthcare workers and patients (Supri et al., 2019; Yang et al., 2022).Nursing care is a complex process so in its quality assessment, various factors are involved. The analysis of health indicators is commonly used as a technique in evaluating nursing care. These indicators include infection rates, patient falls, pressure ulcers, incorrect medication administration, hospital readmissions, and patient satisfaction, among others (Bıyık & Türe, 2020). Additionally, the qualification and training of the nursing team, the availability of necessary resources and equipment, as well as the overall working environment conditions are considered (Sahputra et al., 2021; Vituri et al., 2015). It is understood, therefore, that adequate infrastructure is fundamental for the team to work cohesively and provide efficient and safe care (Bhowmik, 2021). The evaluation of nursing professionals, including factors related to teamwork, effective communication, and interprofessional cooperation, is essential to ensure a collaborative approach in healthcare institutions (Zhao et al., 2021).Nursing is a profession intrinsically linked to teamwork. Nursing team members work based on interdependence and collaboration. For the nursing team to provide comprehensive and effective care, they must share knowledge and experiences and have common goals (Campbell et al., 2020; Olsen et al., 2020). Thus, the attitudes of nursing managers and the leadership styles they adopt should be emphasized, as management plays a 478 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal crucial role in forming and maintaining cohesive and collaborative nursing teams (Bhowmik, 2021; Campbell et al., 2020).The interrelation between nursing teamwork and the quality of care is indisputable (Bhowmik, 2021; Campbell et al., 2020). Nursing team members, through collaboration and integrated efforts, enhance their ability to identify and address patient needs. The exchange of information among nurses through effective communication leads to wellinformed decisions, ensuring a more coordinated, productive, and effective workflow (Zhao et al., 2021). In this context, the importance of exploring the synergy between nursing teamwork and the delivery of quality care becomes evident. Thus, the objectives of this literature review were to analyze and discuss the influence of nursing teamwork on the quality of care. Materials and Methods This is an integrative review conducted based on the five stages proposed by Whittemore and Knafl (2005). Firstly, the research problem was formulated. Subsequently, searches were conducted to access relevant literature. The gathered information was then analyzed and evaluated in detail, and finally, the data were reported.The following question guided the review: “What is the literature perspective on the influence of nursing teamwork on the quality of care?” The search for articles took place during the second week of February 2024, using the Scopus database. Articles were sought based on their titles. The terms used were: “nursing,” “teamwork,” and “care”. Original research articles published in English in scientific journals within the last 10 years, including nurses as participants, whose full texts were available online, and that met the review’s objectives were included.A total of 14 articles were found. After initial analysis, three articles were excluded because they were not conducted with nurses, two others were discarded as they were not original research articles, and one article was excluded because the full text was not available online. After reading the full texts, two more articles were excluded for not meeting the review’s objectives. Following these exclusions, the remaining six articles underwent a methodological assessment using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT; Hong et al., 2018). It was observed that the articles had high methodological quality, and none of them were excluded after the assessment. However, in two studies, a reduced number of participants limited the representativeness of the studied population. The research flowchart is shown in Figure 1.After the methodological analysis, the information obtained from the included articles was organized and appropriately interpreted, allowing for critical considerations on the topic. Important characteristics of the included articles are presented in Table 1. Ethical standards followed the principles of accuracy of 479 VI.

Figure 1. Research flowchart Findings and Discussion Of the six articles included in the review, two are cross-sectional studies, two are qualitative research, one is a correlational study, and one is a mixed-methods study. The articles were published in five different journals between the years 2019 and 2023. The number of participating nurses ranged from 16 to 992. Two articles were conducted in Iran, one in the Netherlands, one in South Korea, one in Sweden, and one in the United Kingdom. 480 VI.

Synthetic compilation of the included articles All six articles pointed to the relevance of nursing teamwork for the effective and efficient delivery of care (Anderson et al., 2019; Baek et al., 2023; Beiboer et al., 2023; Ghezeljeh et al., 2021; Nobahar et al., 2023; Sandelin et al., 2019). Anderson et al.’s (2019) study emphasized the importance of the nursing team’s adaptability to different day-to-day situations, as variations in work processes and factors inherent to the external environment influence teamwork and, consequently, the quality of care. According to the study, in addition to nursing teamwork being threatened by communication failures and role ambiguities, issues related to adapting to changes are also challenges that hinder teamwork among nursing team members. Therefore, leadership and coordination are important for the team to work in harmony (Anderson et al., 2019).It was determined through the studies included in this review that when there is interaction and collaboration among nursing team members, including nurse managers, the team provides care more efficiently and effectively (Anderson et al., 2019; Sandelin et al., 2019). Various factors can challenge teamwork in nursing. A previously conducted systematic review highlighted similar points to those identified in this integrative literature review, emphasizing that lack of communication, human resource shortages, role conflicts, and leadership styles can be obstacles to nursing teamwork (Zhao et al., 2021). 481 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal The relevance of coordination and collaboration among nursing team members became even more evident in Beiboer et al.’s study (2023), where it was highlighted that the fact that some nurses work in pairs and others work individually impacts teamwork. In another study, it was determined that, in the case of operating room nurses, the best experiences of safe and efficient work were perceived when two colleagues collaborated during surgery, with one acting as the scrub nurse and the other as the circulating nurse. This underscores how teamwork impacts the quality of care (Sandelin et al., 2019). The influence of the number of members in the nursing team and the dynamics of teamwork on the quality of care, i.e., how nursing team members collaborate with each other, and its impact on patient outcomes were also identified in another literature review, reinforcing the results of the present review (Zhao et al., 2021). Therefore, it is evident that nursing teamwork is an important strategy in promoting patient-centered care (Baek et al., 2023). Studies conducted in different departments such as wards (Beiboer et al., 2023), emergency rooms (Ghezeljeh et al., 2021), and intensive care units (Nobahar et al., 2023) indicated a negative relationship between nursing teamwork and the occurrence of missed nursing care. In other words, the more cohesive the nursing team, the fewer the care omissions. Nursing teamwork is even more crucial in surgical centers, where effective dialogue is essential to ensure mutual understanding of intraoperative procedures. Therefore, the presence of committed managers on the front lines is also crucial (Sandelin et al., 2019). Consequently, clinical leadership is essential for the quality of nursing care (Beiboer et al., 2023). A previous integrative review highlighted the need for nursing management to implement measures to encourage the formation of productive and efficient nursing teams, thus avoiding errors and missing care (Campbell et al., 2020). A systematic review conducted in 2023 identified the importance of teamwork, with an emphasis on effective communication, to prevent the incidence of missing nursing care (Monalisa et al., 2023). Thus, it is understood that literature reviews conducted earlier support the current review, emphasizing the importance of leadership for nursing teamwork, and the relevance of collaboration among nursing professionals for the provision of quality care.There is a noticeable need to develop educational programs that address practical methods to promote constructive teamwork and the delivery of quality nursing care (Baek et al., 2023; Beiboer et al., 2023; Ghezeljeh et al., 2021). Furthermore, the commitment of healthcare institutions’ administrators, including nurse managers, in creating favorable work environments can facilitate the improvement of teamwork and, consequently, patient-centered care (Baek et al., 2023; Ghezeljeh et al., 2021). Among the efforts of health institutions’ managers to promote favorable work environments, strategies related to the 482 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal formation and maintenance of a skilled nursing team (Baek et al., 2023), establishment of appropriate work schedules (Baek et al., 2023; Ghezeljeh et al., 2021), allocation of welldefined roles and tasks, setting common goals (Anderson et al., 2019), implementation of appropriate regulations, facilitation of processes, improvement in interpersonal relationships, and development of activities that stimulate motivation (Ghezeljeh et al., 2021) should be present. It is evident that factors directly related to nursing management, such as coordination and leadership, are crucial for the maintenance of cohesive nursing teams (Campbell et al., 2020). Additionally, teamwork should be emphasized from graduation and reinforced through continuous education programs in healthcare institutions (Olsen et al., 2020; Zhao et al., 2021). Despite this literature review providing valuable insights into the studied theme, some limitations should be highlighted. The fact that articles were searched only by titles and in a single database is a significant weakness of the review. Another limitation to be considered is that only articles published in English were included, potentially excluding important studies published in other languages. Therefore, in future research, it is recommended that more comprehensive searches be conducted. Conclusion and Recommendations This review aimed to analyze and discuss the influence of nursing teamwork on the quality of care. It was identified that collaboration and coordination among members of nursing teams impact the quality of care. It was also observed that there are many obstacles to the formation of cohesive nursing teams, such as poor communication, role and function ambiguities, difficulties in adapting to changes, exhaustive work schedules, deficiencies in professional training, inappropriate leadership styles, and nursing shortages.Educators should pay attention to the development of practical teaching methods that encourage nursing teamwork from the first years of education of these professionals. The crucial role of nurse managers in creating healthy work environments that support the formation and maintenance of cohesive teams should also be emphasized. It is important to note that the leadership styles adopted by nurse managers will guide the attitudes of other team members since nurse managers act as role models for their followers. Thus, collaboration, effective communication, and coordination among the members of the nursing team are strongly influenced by nurse managers. 483 VI.

Afetler genellikle uyarı olmaksızın gerçekleşir ve ölüm, yaralanma, travmatik stres gibi önemli olumsuz etkilere neden olur. Coğrafi yapısı ve iklim özellikleri nedeniyle Türkiye, özellikle depremler olmak üzere çeşitli afet türlerinin sıkça yaşandığı bir konumda bulunmaktadır. Türkiye'deki afetlerden kaynaklanan can kaybının yaklaşık %60'ı depremlerden kaynaklanmış olup, can ve mal kaybına neden olan depremler ortalama olarak beş yılda bir meydana gelmektedir. Toplum düzeyinde felaketlere hazırlık, kişisel koruyucu davranışlar olarak tanımlanabilir ve bireyleri öngörülemeyen durumlardan korumayı amaçlar. Tüm felaket yönetimi modelleri, beklenmedik durumlar için hazırlıklı olmanın önemini vurgulamaktadır. Afetlere hazırlık konusundaki çoğu çalışma, fiziksel veya malzeme hazırlıkları içermektedir. Oysa ki afetler için psikolojik hazırlık da en az diğer hazırlıklar kadar önemlidir. Özellikle sağlık alanında eğitim gören öğrenciler, meslekleri gereği afet durumlarında önemli bir rol üstlenirler ve bu nedenle psikolojik olarak hazırlıklı olmaları gerekir. Söz konusu öğrencilerin meslekleri nedeniyle afet sırasında hızlı ve etkili bir şekilde müdahale etmek için gerekli becerilere ve kaynaklara sahip olmaları gerekmektedir. Psikolojik hazırlık, onlar için bu tür stresli ve travmatik durumlarla başa çıkmalarına yardımcı olabilir. Psikolojik hazırlık düzeylerinin belirlenmesi, bu öğrencilerin afet öncesi, sırası ve sonrasında yaşayabilecekleri duygusal ve psikolojik tepkileri anlamamıza ve bunlara uygun destek ve kaynakları sağlamamıza yardımcı olabilir. Sağlık alanında eğitim gören öğrenciler, çalışma hayatında afet sonrası toplumların rehabilite edilmesi ve sağlık hizmetlerinin yeniden sağlanması gibi kritik görevlerde yer alırlar. Bu nedenle, sağlık öğrencilerinin psikolojik olarak sağlam bir zeminde olmaları, etkili bir şekilde görevlerini yerine getirmelerine ve topluma destek olmalarına yardımcı olacaktır. Önerilen çalışma kapsamında İstanbul’da faaliyet gösteren bir devlet üniversitesinde öğrenim gören 3667 sağlık alanı öğrencisine afet tehdidi için psikolojik hazırlık ölçeği aracılığıyla sorular sorulmuş ve Kişinin Duygusal ve Psikolojik Tepkisinin Yönetimi, Sosyal Çevrenin Yönetimi, Dış Durumsal Çevre Bilgisi ve Yönetimi alt boyutları incelenmiştir. Bu alt boyutlardan Kişinin Duygusal ve Psikolojik Tepkisinin Yönetimi alt boyutunda cinsiyete göre farklılaşma tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca ölçeğin alt boyutları incelendiğinde öğrencilerin öğrenim gördükleri fakültelere göre sonuçların farklılaştığı tespit edilmiştir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EVALUATING THE PSYCHOLOGICAL PREPAREDNESS LEVELS FOR DISASTERS AMONG HEALTH FIELD STUDENTS Abstract Disaster is defined as an event that significantly disrupts the functionality of a society at any scale due to the interaction of exposure to hazardous events with conditions of vulnerability and capacity, leading to human, material, economic, and environmental losses. Disasters often occur without warning and result in significant negative impacts such as death, injury, and traumatic stress. Due to its geographical structure and climatic characteristics, Turkey is situated in a location where various types of disasters, especially earthquakes, frequently occur. Approximately 60% of the fatalities resulting from disasters in Turkey are due to earthquakes, and earthquakes that cause loss of life and property occur on average every five years. Preparedness for disasters at the societal level can be defined as personal protective behaviors aimed at protecting individuals from unforeseen circumstances. All disaster management models emphasize the importance of being prepared for unexpected situations. Most studies on disaster preparedness focus on physical or material preparations. However, psychological preparedness is equally important for disasters. Particularly, students undergoing education in the healthcare field play a significant role in disaster situations due to their professions and thus need to be psychologically prepared. These students must have the skills and resources necessary to intervene rapidly and effectively during disasters due to their professions. Psychological preparedness can help them cope with such stressful and traumatic situations. Determining the levels of psychological preparedness can help us understand the emotional and psychological responses these students may experience before, during, and after disasters, and provide appropriate support and resources accordingly. Students in healthcare education play critical roles in tasks such as rehabilitating post-disaster communities and re-establishing healthcare services in their professional lives. Therefore, ensuring that healthcare students are psychologically resilient will help them perform their duties effectively and support the community. In the presented paper, questions were asked to 3667 healthcare students studying at a state university in Istanbul using a psychological preparedness scale for disaster threats, and the sub-dimensions of Management of one’s Emotional and Psychological Response, Management of One’s Social Environment, Knowledge and Management of the External Situational Environment were examined. Differentiation was observed in the sub-dimension of Managing Emotional and Psychological Response by gender. Additionally, when the subdimensions of the scale were examined, it was found that the results varied according to the faculties in which the students were enrolled.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Afet, "Tehlikeli olayların maruziyet, savunmasızlık ve kapasite koşullarıyla etkileşime girdiği herhangi bir ölçekte bir toplumun veya bir toplumun işlevselliğinin ciddi bir şekilde bozulması, insan, malzeme, ekonomik ve çevresel kayıplara ve etkilere neden olan olay" olarak tanımlanmaktadır (AFAD,2018). Afetler genellikle uyarı olmaksızın gerçekleşir ve ölüm, yaralanma, travmatik stres gibi önemli olumsuz etkilere neden olur. Coğrafi, topoğrafik yapısı ve iklim özellikleri nedeniyle Türkiye, özellikle depremler olmak üzere çeşitli afet türlerinin sıkça yaşandığı bir konumda bulunmaktadır (AFAD,2020). Türkiye'deki afetlerden kaynaklanan can kaybının yaklaşık %60'ı depremlerden kaynaklanmış olup, can ve mal kaybına neden olan depremler ortalama olarak beş yılda bir meydana gelmektedir (Clode,2010). Toplum düzeyinde felaketlere hazırlık, kişisel koruyucu davranışlar olarak tanımlanabilir ve bireyleri beklenmedik, öngörülemeyen durumlardan korumayı amaçlar. Tüm felaket yönetimi çerçeveleri ve modelleri, beklenmedik durumlar için hazırlıklı olmanın önemini vurgular (Malkina ve Pykh,2015). Tarihsel olarak, müdahale kurumları insanları ve ailelerini ölümden veya yaralanmadan korumak, mali ve ekonomik kayıpları önlemek veya en aza indirmek için yapılması gereken fiziksel veya malzeme hazırlıklarına odaklanmışlardır (McLennan vd., 2022). Bu nedenle, felaketlere hazırlık konusundaki çoğu çalışma, bu tür fiziksel veya malzeme hazırlıkları içermektedir. Daha yakın zamanda, felaket araştırmacıları, fiziksel ve malzeme hazırlığın yanı sıra psikolojik veya zihinsel hazırlığın önemine de dikkat çekmişlerdir. Clode (2010); McLennan, Reynolds ve Trigg (2019); Malkina-Pykh ve Pykh (2013); Roudini vd. (2017); Suhaimi ve Marzuki (2016) gibi araştırmacılar, felaket tehdidine karşı psikolojik hazırlığın fiziksel/malzeme hazırlık kadar önemli olduğunu savunmuşlardır (McLennan,2020; Roudini,2017; Suhaimi ve Marzuki ,2016). Sağlık alanında eğitim gören öğrenciler, afet durumlarında önemli bir rol üstlenirler ve bu nedenle psikolojik olarak hazırlıklı olmaları gerekir. Öğrenciler, afet sırasında hızlı ve etkili bir şekilde müdahale etmek için gerekli becerilere ve kaynaklara sahip olmalıdır. Psikolojik hazırlık, bu tür stresli ve travmatik durumlarla başa çıkmalarına yardımcı olabilir. Psikolojik hazırlık düzeyleri, bu öğrencilerin afet öncesi, sırası ve sonrasında yaşayabilecekleri duygusal ve psikolojik tepkileri anlamamıza ve bunlara uygun destek ve kaynakları sağlamamıza yardımcı olabilir. Sağlık alanında eğitim gören öğrenciler, afet sonrası toplumların rehabilite edilmesi ve sağlık hizmetlerinin yeniden sağlanması gibi kritik görevlerde yer alırlar. Bu nedenle, psikolojik olarak sağlam bir zeminde olmaları, etkili bir şekilde görevlerini yerine getirmelerine ve topluma destek olmalarına yardımcı olabilir. Çalışmanın motivasyonu bu alanda derinlemesine bir araştırma 489 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal gerçekleştirmektir. Afet teriminin literatürde çeşitli kurumlar ve farklı kaynaklar tarafından yapılmış tanımlamaları mevcuttur. Uluslararası yayınlarda ve birçok kaynakta ortak tanım olarak UNISDR tarafından 2009 yılındaki raporda geçen tanım kullanılmaktadır. Söz konusu tanımlamada afet: “Maruz kalma, korumasızlık ve sığa koşullarıyla etkileşime giren ve tehlikeli olaylar nedeniyle herhangi bir ölçekte bir topluluğun veya toplumun işleyişinin ciddi şekilde bozulması: insan, malzeme, ekonomik ve çevresel kayıplar ve etkiler” olarak belirtilmiştir (UNDRR,2009). Ülkemizin Afet ve Acil Durum Yönetmeliği Başkanlığının (AFAD) verilerinde afet, toplumun genelini veya toplumun bir kesimi için ekonomik, fiziksel ve sosyal kayıplar ortaya çıkaran günlük hayat akışını ve çeşitli insan aktivitelerini devamlılığını engelleyen veya durduran, maruz kalan toplumun kaynaklarının yetemediği doğa, teknoloji veya insan merkezli olay olarak tanımlanmaktadır (AFAD,2014). Afet türleri en genel ayrım ile doğal afetler ve insan kaynaklı afetler olmak üzere ikiye ayrılmaktadır. Doğal afetler toplumlar ve yaşam alanlarında tahribata ve yıkıma neden olur. Afet sonucu ortaya çıkan kaos ortamı yaralanmalara, can kayıplarına, çeşitli salgınlara sebebiyet verir. Yerleşim yerlerine verdiği zarar sonucu bölge planlamasında ve yatırım planlarında gerileme gerçekleşir (Ergünay, 2000). Ülkemizde en sık görülen doğal afet depremdir. Heyelanlar ve su baskınları depremden sonra ülkemizde en sık görülen doğal afetlerdir (Ergünay, 2007). İnsan kaynaklı afetler ihmalkarlık ve art niyet sonucu insanlığı direkt veya direkt olmayan yollarla etkileyen afetlerdir. Terör eylemleri, biyolojik silahlar, siber saldırılar, kimyasal ve endüstriyel saldırılar, salgınlar, besin zehirlenmeleri, tehlikeli maddelerin taşınması sonucu meydana gelen kazalarda bu kategoride değerlendirilir (Altun, 2018).Afetler söz konusu olduğundan doğal olarak afet yönetimi kavramı ortaya çıkmaktadır. Afet yönetiminin amacı, afet sonucu meydana gelen olayların engellenmesi ve afet sonucu olaylarda ve durumlarda en az hasarı almak için afet öncesinde, afet anında ve afet sonrasında gereken faaliyetlerin gösterilmesi, afet sonucu zararı azaltmasıyla iyileştirme ve müdahale çalışmaları için gerekli düzenlemelerin yapılması ile yönlendirme faaliyetleriyle gerekli amaçlarla yönetilmesidir. Afet yönetimi dört basamaktan oluşmaktadır. Zararı azaltma, hazırlıklı olmak, müdahale ve iyileştirme çalışmalarıdır (Kadıoğlu ve Özdamar, 2008). Afet yönetimi döngüsünde zararı azaltmak ve hazırlık afet öncesi basamaklar iken müdahale ve iyileştirme afet sonrası basamaklardır.Zararı Azaltmak: Bu basamak, uzun vadede risk yaratacak durumları belirlemeyi ve bu tehlikelere karşı kaybın azaltılması için önceden önlem almayı içerir. Bu faaliyetler bölgesel yerleşim, bölge yapısının incelenmesi, afet sonrası yerleşkelerin belirlenmesini organize etmek ve risk durumlarını değerlendirmektir (Altay ve Green, 2005). 490 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Hazırlıklı Olmak: Bu basamak acil durum sırasında yetki ve görevlerin belirlenmesini, kaynakların organize edilmesini içerir. Acil durum sırası yüküm ve sorumlulukların belirlendiği, kaynak ve materyallerin önceden hazırlandığı basamaktır. Bu basamakta acil durum programları yapılmalı, yapılan programlarla ilgili çeşitli eğitimler verilmeli ve iletişim altyapıları geliştirilmelidir (Altıntaş ve ark. 2012).Müdahale: Afete sebebiyet veren olay ve buhran anında oluşan mal ve can kaybını engellemek veya en azda tutmak için yapılan çalışmalardır (kurtarma faaliyetleri). Görevli sağlık çalışanların psikolojisi ve emniyetinin sağlanması, ilk yardım ve travma bakımları, gıda güvenliği, salgınlar, cinsel ve üreme sağlığı ve ruhsal sağlık hizmetleri gibi ilk düzey sağlık hizmetleri afet tıbbının uygulamaları arasındadır (Copolla, 2007).İyileştirme: Bu basamak afetten etkilenen her türlü vatandaşların günlük hayatlarına yeniden entegre olmalarını içeren çalışmalar bütünüdür. Müdahale çalışmalarından sonra başlar ve afetin yarattığı etkinin büyüklüğün göre devam eder (Copolla,2007).Afetlerin insan yaşamında ve toplum içinde oluşturduğu felaket kaynaklı psikososyal tesirleri vardır. Bu tesirleri psikolojik açıdan konulara ayırmak anlaşılırlığı açısından önemlidir. Afet öncesi, anında ve sonrasında psikolojik etkileri birbirinden farklılık göstermektedir (Swanson ve Smith, 2013). Afetlerin psiko-sosyal olarak bireyleri etkilemesi afet öncesi hazırlığa yönelimi sağlar. Bireyler bu durumda olası afet korkularını arttıracağı fikriyle afete yakalanacağı düşüncesini görmezden gelmeye çalışarak yatışmaya çalışırlar (Çorbacıoğlu, 2005). Afetlere yönelik psikolojik hazırlığı bireyin afete dönük psikolojik ve duygu içerikli davranışlarını idare etme özelliği kazandırması ile ilişkilendirilmektedir (Boylan,2016). Roudini ve ark. (2017) bireylerinin büyük bir kısmının afetlerin bireylerde yarattığı negatif psikolojik etkilerinden habersiz olduğunu belirtmişlerdir. Afetlere hazırlıkta genellikle daha temel ve acil fiziksel ihtiyaçlar temin edilmekte, kişileri afetlere psikolojik yönden hazırlamak görmezden gelinmekte ve buna yönelik faaliyetler arka plana atılmaktadır (Roudini vd., 2017). Tam tersine afetlerin gerçekleşmesi kesin olmasa bile bireyler ve toplumlar afetlere psikolojik yönden hazır olmaları, olası afetler gerçekleştiğinde onları daha bilinçli davranmaya itecektir ve bunun sonucu kritik yaralanma ve ölümler azalacaktır. Bu nedenle olası afetlerden önce psikolojik yönden afetlere hazır olmayı arttıracak eğitimler ve bilgiler, bu alanda işlevselliğin devamı için önemlidir (Oflaz, 2008). Demirbilek ve Gökkaya’nın yaptığı (2022) acil yardım ve afet yönetimi öğrencilerinin afetlere hazırlık durumları ile psikolojik sağlamlık durumlarının ilişkisinin inceledikleri araştırma sonucu acil durum afet yönetimi lisans öğrencilerinin aldığı eğitimin öğrencilerde pozitif bir etkide olduğu öğrencilerde afete hazırlık ve öz yeterliliklerini geliştirdiği söylenmektedir. Bu veriler doğrultusunda diğer 491 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal bölümlerdeki öğrencilerin müfredatlarına afet eğitimi konulmasının öğrencilerin psikolojik sağlamlıklarına katkı sağlayabileceği ön görülmüştür (Demirbilek ve Gökkaya,2022). Karakış (2019) hemşirelerle yaptığı çalışmasında psikolojik sağlamlık arttıkça hemşirelerde afetlere karşı hazırlanma düzeyinin de arttığı tespit etmiştir (Karakış,2019). Afet eğitimlerinin hedefi, bireylerin afetlere karşı dayanıklılıklarını güçlendirmek ve onları afetlere hazırlayarak iyileşme süreçlerinin etkinliğini artırmaktır (Ronan ve Towers, 2014). Afet eğitimlerinin bir diğer hedefi de bireylerin, kurumların vb. doğru bilgiye erişmesi ve bunu uygun zamanlama ile etkili bir şekilde kullanmasını sağlamaktır (Mızrak, 2018). Dünyada yapılan afet eğitimlerine “acil durum eğitimi”, “karmaşık durumlarda eğitim”, “hassas durumlar ve eğitim”, “eğitim ve krizler”, “eğitim ve kriz sonrası geçiş” ve “eğitim ve doğal afetler” gibi isimleri kullanılmaktadır (Mangione vd., 2013). Afet eğitimlerinde öğrenme ve öğretme tekniklerini çeşitlendirmek; tahliye alanlarını, barınma yerlerini, afetlerde hayatlarını kaybedenlerin mezarlarını ziyaret etmek gibi etkinlikler afet risk azaltma çalışmalarında amaca hizmet edebilir ve bireylerin farkındalıklarını arttırabilir (Adiyoso ve Kanegae, 2012). Okulda, ailede ya da kendi çabalarıyla afet eğitimi almış bireylerin afet sırasında bilgi ve becerilerini kullanmada, afet sonrasında ise hayatta kalma davranışlarına bakılan çalışmalarda eğitimlerin hem teorik hem de pratik olarak uygulandığında daha etkili olduğu ortaya görülmektedir (Codreanu vd., 2014). Afet eğitimlerinin hedeflerine ulaşabilmesi için, uzman ve deneyimli eğitmenler tarafından gerekli olan doğru bilgi, uygun teknikler ve etkili uygulamalarla bireylere aktarılmalıdır. Aksi halde bireyler yanlış bilgiler öğrenebilirler ve konuya ilgilerini kaybedebilirler (Mızrak, 2018). Afetlere hazırlık aşamasında kullanılan yazılımlar çalışmaları verimli hale getirebilir. Eğitimlerde Sanal Gerçeklik (Virtual Reality/VR) ve Artırılmış Gerçeklik (Augmented Reality / AR) gibi uygulamaların kullanılması, gerçeğe yakın deneyim yaşatacağından, etkinliği geliştirebilir (Acar ve Çağdaş, 2019). MATERYAL VE YÖNTEM Afet tehditlerine karşı psikolojik olarak hazırlıklı olmak, insanların acil uyarı döneminin ve tehlikenin etkileriyle başa çıkabilme yeteneklerini artırabilir. Bu durum, insanların kendilerini daha güvende hissetmelerine, daha kontrollü davranmalarına ve daha iyi hayatta kalma kararları almalarına yardımcı olabilir. Ayrıca, bireyleri psikolojik olarak afetlerin etkilerine hazırlamak, ev halkını afet kaynaklı travmanın yol açabileceği zararlı psikolojik sıkıntılardan ve uzun vadeli ruh sağlığı sorunlarından koruyarak afetlerin olumsuz zihinsel etkilerini azaltabilir (Roudini ve ark., 2017; Zakur, 2023). Bu nedenle, kriz öncesi psikolojik hazırlık, insanların duygularını 492 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal öngörmelerine, tanımalarına ve kontrol etmelerine yardımcı olarak daha iyi başa çıkmalarını sağlayabilir. Belirli bir risk altındaki topluluklarda psikolojik hazırlığın bir parçası olarak değerlendirilmesi gereken unsurlar, o topluluğun karşılaşabileceği doğal tehlike tehditlerinin yanı sıra pratik ve maddi yerel ihtiyaçlarını ve mevcut kaynaklarını da göz önünde bulundurmalıdır. Bu unsurların tümü, kültürel olarak kabul edilebilir olmalıdır. Bu nedenle, belirli topluluklardaki bireylerin, karşılaşabilecekleri felaket türleriyle başa çıkmak için psikolojik olarak nasıl hazırlıklı olacaklarını belirlemek için araştırmalara ihtiyaç vardır.Önerilen çalışma kapsamında İstanbul’da faaliyet gösteren bir devlet üniversitesinde öğrenim gören 3667 sağlık alanı öğrencisine afet tehdidi için psikolojik hazırlık ölçeği aracılığıyla sorular sorulmuştur. Çalışmada Görgün vd. tarafından Türkçe versiyonunun geçerlik ve güvenirliği çalışılan 26 maddelik Avustralya Afet Tehditlerine Psikolojik Hazırlık Ölçeği kullanılmıştır (Görgün vd., 2023). Anket (soru onam formu) iki bölümden oluşmaktadır. 1.Sosyodemografik veri formu: Sosyodemografik veri formunun kullanım amacı uygulanan anketlere katkı sağlayan bireyler hakkında detaylı bilgi edinmektir. Anket ve belirli formları pekiştirmek, istenilen verileri tamamlamak üzere sorular oluşturulmuştur. Yaş, cinsiyet, gibi bilgilere bu şekilde ulaşılmaktadır.2. Afet Tehdidi İçin Psikolojik Hazırlık Ölçeği envanteri:Bu form Zulch tarafından 2019 yılında geliştirilmiştir. Örgün vd. tarafından 2023 yılında Türkçeye uyarlanmıştır. Ölçeğin orijinali 26 ifadeden oluşmaktadır ve cronbach alfa değeri 0,93 tür. Türkçe ’ye uyarlanması ise 21 sorudan oluşmakta ve cronbach alfa değeri 0,95’tir. Söz konusu değerler 0,6 üzerinde olduğundan ölçeğin güvenilir olduğu kabul edilmektedir. 493 VI.

Yapıların, yaşam alanlarının afetlere dayanıklı oluşturulması, şehir planlamaları, tatbikatlar, sigortalamalar vb. uygulamalar afetlere fiziksel hazırlıkları içermektedir. Oysa günümüzde afetlere karşı psikolojik hazırlık en az fiziksel hazırlık kadar önem arz etmektedir. Her türlü afetle mücadelede her aşamada etkin rol alacak sağlık profesyonellerinin afetlere karşı psikolojik hazırlık düzeylerinin belirlenmesi bu noktada oldukça önemli hale gelmektedir. Bir sağlık profesyoneli, insanlara sistematik bir şekilde önleyici, iyileştirici veya rehabilite edici sağlık hizmeti sunan kişi olduğundan bu kişilerin psikolojik dayanıklılık seviyeleri, beklenmedik olaylar karşısındaki tepkileri, kendilerini toparlama süreçleri ve gerek kendileri gerekse içinde bulundukları çevre için kriz yönetebilme kabiliyetleri afetlerin başarılı yönetimi hususunda önemlidir. Afetlerde aktif olarak görev alacak sağlık profesyonelleri, etkilenen nüfusun demografik özelliklerini bilen, sosyal becerileri gelişmiş, iletişim yetenekleri güçlü, afetin farklı evrelerini, yas süreçlerini ve stresin doğasını anlama becerisine sahip olmalıdır. Ayrıca, kendileri ve diğer çalışanlar için stres yönetimi tekniklerini bilmeleri gerekmektedir. Gerektiğinde topluluklara etkili bir şekilde hitap etmek, medya ile iş birliği yapmak, toplu bakım merkezlerinde yönetimi sürdürmek, toplum liderleriyle iletişim kurmak ve bu ilişkiyi sürdürmek, organizasyonun dinamiklerini ve politik süreçlerini anlamak da sağlık profesyonelleri için hayati önem taşımaktadır. İfade edilen gerekçelerden dolayı sağlık profesyonelleri için henüz mesleklerini öğrendikleri öğrencilik 497 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yıllarından itibaren afet yönetimi eğitimi hakkında teorik ve uygulamalı eğitimler almalarının faydalı olacağı düşünülmektedir. Sağlık profesyonellerinin öğrencilik döneminden itibaren afet yönetimi eğitimi almaları, onların afetlere karşı psikolojik hazırlık seviyelerini önemli ölçüde artıracaktır. Bu eğitimler, sağlık profesyonellerine afetlerin farklı evreleri, etkileri ve yönetimi konularında derinlemesine bilgi sağlar. Özellikle afetlerin psikososyal etkileri ve insan davranışları üzerine odaklanan eğitimler, sağlık profesyonellerinin afet sırasında daha etkili ve duyarlı bir şekilde hareket etmelerini sağlayabilir. Bu şekilde, sağlık profesyonelleri afet anında karşılaşabilecekleri stres, belirsizlik ve travma gibi durumlarla daha iyi başa çıkabilirler. Ayrıca, afet yönetimi eğitimi alan profesyoneller, toplumların afet öncesi, sırası ve sonrasında ihtiyaç duyduğu sağlık hizmetlerini daha etkin bir şekilde planlayabilir ve uygulayabilirler. Bu sayede, sağlık profesyonelleri için afetlerin insan sağlığı üzerindeki etkilerini en aza indirme ve toplumların daha hızlı bir şekilde iyileşmesine katkıda bulunma potansiyellerinin artacağı düşünülmektedir. 498 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EVALUATION OF EFFECTS OF HARPAGOPHYTUM PROCUMBENS ON WOUND HEALING: AN IN VITRO STUDY Abstract Plants can be used in traditional medicine for the treatment of diseases due to the drugs they contain. Today, drugs with proven treatment effectiveness in current modern medical practices generally include pure active substances purified from plant species rich in active substances or produced in the laboratory environment with biotechnological applications, but they require the use of new and effective agents or supportive detoxification agents due to the side effects that may be encountered during the treatment period. Due to the rich content of bioactive substances such as glycosides, triterpenoids, phytosterols, aromatic acids and flavonoids, Harpagophytum procumbens has been reported to be used in traditional medicine for the treatment of blood diseases, fever, dyspepsia, urinary tract infections, wound and burn healing and many skin diseases. In the literature, no study has yet been found that has investigated the potential effects of Harpagophytum procumbens on wound healing in fibroblast cells, whose protective effect on cell viability has been reported. In this study, the potential wound healing effect of Harpagophytum procumbens was evaluated using light microscopy technique in an in vitro wound model on mouse fibroblast cells (NIH/3T3). The study results have shown that this plant repairs the artificial scar area in concentration and time dependent manner. In this regard, further mechanistic studies and investigation of the triggering or facilitating effect of Harpagophytum procumbens plant on wound healing in in vivo wound models, to determine the target molecules with which the active substances of the extract interact in the cell when administered separately and combined in different concentrations, and to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of the relevant interactions are required. We think that it has high potential and we recommend the Harpagophytum procumbens plant for pharmaceutical and pharmacokinetic research on this subject. Keywords: Harpagophytum procumbens, wound healing, cell proliferation 503 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Bitkiler drog içerdiklerinden dolayı geleneksel tıpta tedavi amaçlı kullanılabilmektedir. Günümüzde kullanılan modern tıp uygulamalarında tedavi etkinliği gösterilmiş ilaçlar yer almaktadır. Bu ilaçlar genellikle aktif madde içeriği zengin olan bitki türlerinden saflaştırılarak ya da biyoteknolojik uygulamalarla laboratuvar ortamında üretilmiş saf etken maddelerden oluşmaktadır. Tedavi için kullanımları sırasında karşılaşılabilen yan etkiler nedeniyle yeni ve etkili maddelerin veya destekleyici tedavi ajanlarının kullanımına ihtiyaç doğmuştur. Susam familyasının (Pedaliaceae) bir üyesi olan Güney Afrika bitkisi Harpagophytum procumbens'in genel bilinen adı Şeytan pençesi’dir. Son zamanlarda H. procumbens ikincil kök ekstraktları, çoğunlukla Avrupa'da kronik hastalıklar olmak üzere çeşitli hastalıklara geleneksel bir ilaç potansiyeli sunmaktadır. Avrupa Fitoterapi Bilimsel Kooperatifi (ESCOP), ağrılı osteoartritin semptomatik tedavisinde, bel ağrısının, iştah kaybının ve hazımsızlığın hafifletilmesinde H. procumbens kullanımını önermiştir (Brendler, Gruenwald, Ulbricht, & Basch, 2006). Bitkisel Tıbbi Ürünler Komitesi (HMPC), geleneksel kullanıma dayalı olarak hafif eklem ağrısı ve hafif sindirim bozukluklarının tedavisine yönelik endikasyonlarda kullanıma yönelik tartışma taslağı yayınlamıştır (Brendler et al., 2006). Klinik çalışmalarda H. procumbens içeren ürünlerin bel ağrısı veya osteoartrit tedavisindeki etkinliği test edilmiştir (Brien, Lewith, & McGregor, 2006; Denner, 2007). Steroid olmayan antiinflamatuvar ilaçlar (NSAID) ile eşdeğerlik ve üstün tolere edilebilirlik de dahil olmak üzere etkinlik ve iyi tolere edilebilirlik kanıtları literatürde rapor edilmiştir (Chrubasik, 2004). Klinik çalışmalarda kullanılan farklı çözücüler ile hazırlanmış ekstraktların Vioxx® ve Voltaren® resinat ile benzer etkinliğe sahip olduğu, ancak bu standart ilaçlardan daha yüksek tolere edilebilirliğe sahip olduğu gösterilmiştir (Lienert, Ruetten, Kuhn, & Wartenberg-Demand, 2005). Başka bir çalışmada, bilek, dirsek, omuz, kalça, diz ve sırt ağrısı için ortalama ağrı skorlarında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı azalmalar olduğu ve yaşam kalitesi ölçümlerinin başlangıç çizgisine kıyasla anlamlı bir artış gösterdiği rapor edilmiştir. Bu ekstraktların kullanıldığı zamanlarda eş zamanlı ağrı kesici ilaçların kullanımının durdurulması rapor edilmiştir (Grant, McBean, Fyfe, & Warnock, 2007). Harpagophytum procumbens’in sekonder yumrularındaki zengin glikozid, triterpenoid, fitosteroller, aromatik asit ve flavonoidler gibi biyoaktif madde içeriğinden dolayı, geleneksel tıpta kan hastalıkları, ateş, idrar yolu enfeksiyonları, yara ve yanık iyileşmesi ve birçok deri hastalığının tedavisi için kullanımı bildirilmiştir (Anauate, Torres, & de Mello, 2010). Literatürde, hücre canlılığını koruyucu etkisi rapor edilmiş olan H. procumbens’in yara iyileşmesi üzerinde potansiyel etkilerini fibroblast hücrelerinde araştırmış bir çalışmaya henüz rastlanmamıştır. 504 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Figür 1. Harpagophytum procumbens kökleri (Stewart & Cole, 2005) Bu çalışmada fare fibroblast hücreleri (NIH/3T3) kullanılarak oluşturulmuş in vitro yara modelinde Harpagophytum procumbens’in yara iyileştirici potansiyelinin ışık mikroskopi tekniği kullanılarak değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Materyal ve Metod Hücre kültürü Çalışma kapsamında NIH/3T3 fare fibroblast hücreleri serum (%10, Fetal Bovine Serum/FBS) ve penisilin/streptomisin (%1) ile hazırlanmış Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) besi ortamında steril hücre kültürü inkübatöründe (37 °C, %5 CO2) çoğaltılmıştır. Her 3 günde hücreler pasajlanmış ve konfluent hücreler yara deneyi oluşturulmasında kullanılmıştır (Sahinturk, Kacar, Vejselova, & Kutlu, 2018). Yara iyileşmesi deneyi NIH/3T3 fare fibroblast hücreleri serum (%10, Fetal Bovine Serum/FBS) ve penisilin/streptomisin (%1) içeren Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM)’da standart şartlar altında (37°C, %5 CO2) uygun nem içeren inkübatörde 6 kuyulu flaskların içine ekilmiş ve taban hücreler tarafından kaplanana dek inkübasyon yapılmıştır. Konfluent hücrelerin üzerinden besi ortamı uzaklaştırılmış ve 100 µL’lik steril pipet ucu kullanılarak yara boşluğu oluşturulmuştur. Deney sıfırıncı saati olarak bu aşamada oluşturulan yara boşlukları ışık mikroskobunda görüntülenmiştir. Bunun ardından her bir kuyuya 200 µg/mL H. procumbens içeren besi yeri eklenerek plakalar 24, 48, 72 ve 96. saatlerde ışık mikroskobunda görüntülenmiştir (Rodriguez, Wu, & Guan, 2005). 505 VI.

Kontrol grubu (A) ve H. procumbens uygulanmış deney grubuna (B) ait 96. saat ışık mikroskobu görüntüleri (10X). Yara iyileşmesi sürecinin birçok farklı etmene bağlı olduğu literatürde belirtilmiştir. Anjiyogenez yara iyileşmesi, menstruasyon döngüsü gibi fizyolojik şartlarda katkı sağlarken, anjiyogenezin aksaması kalp krizi, ateroskleroz, kanser ve metastaz gibi sağlık sorunlarına neden olmaktadır (Devasagayam et al., 2004). H. procumbens köklerinden elde edilen tozun yara iyileştirici ajan olarak kullanımı literatürde bildirilmiştir (Von Koenen, 1996). H. procumbens ana bileşenlerinden harpagositin osteoblast hücrelerinde proliferasyonu tetiklediği rapor edilmiştir (Chung et al., 2016). H. procumbens ekstraktlarının sıçan aortunda 5 günlük uygulama süresinde anjiyogenezi anlamlı bir şekilde inhibe ettiği rapor edilmiştir (Abdulhussein, HattabMutlag, Khamees, Sahib, & Ghazi, 2018). Vasküler endotelyal faktör sentezlenmesinin serbest radikaller varlığı sebebiyle engellenmesi aynı zamanda da H. procumbens’in metanol ektrelerinde yer alan sekonder metabolitler tarafından da engellenebildiğinden anjiyogenezin baskılandığı rapor edilmiştir. Aynı çalışmada, H. 507 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal procumbens ekstraktlarında bulunan flavonoidler nedeniyle antioksidan özellik göstererek serbest radikalleri uzaklaştırdığı rapor edilmiştir (Abdulhussein et al., 2018). Başka bir çalışmada, H. procumbens etil asetat fraksiyonunun sıçan beyin korteksi parçalarında hücre canlılığını koruduğu ve bu hücre canlılığının antioksidan özelliğe bağlı olduğu belirtilmiştir (Schaffer et al., 2013). Bu çalışmada doza ve zamana bağlı olarak fibroblast hücre proliferasyonunun arttığı bulunmuştur. In vitro ortamda oluşturulan yara iyileşmesinin de proliferasyon artışının gözlemlendiği konsantrasyonlarda artmış olduğu saptanmıştır. Literatüre benzer olarak değerlendirildiğinde, bu proliferasyon artışının H. procumbens’in içeriğinde bulunan sekonder metabolitlerin antioksidan özelliğine bağlanabileceği aynı zamanda da farklı konsantrasyonlarda bu etkinin farklılık gösterebileceği yorumlanmıştır. Yapay skar alanının kapanması (yara iyileşmesi) ve hücre proliferasyonun artışının ayrıntılı moleküler mekanizmasının aydınlatılabilmesi için daha ileri farmakolojik ve farmakokinetik etkinliklerin ekstre içeriğindeki etken maddeler özelinde çalışmalar yapılması gerektiği kanaatindeyiz ve bu konuda H. procumbens’i önermekteyiz. Sonuç ve Öneriler Çalışma sonuçlarında H. procumbens’in yapay skar alanını konsantrasyon ve zamana bağlı olarak onardığı gösterilmiştir. Bu doğrultuda H. procumbens bitkisinin yara iyileşmesinin tetikleyici veya kolaylaştırıcı etkisinin daha ileri mekanistik çalışmalar ve in vivo yara modellerinde araştırılması, ekstre içerisinde bulunan etken maddelerin ayrı ayrı izole edilerek ve farklı konsantrasyonlar halinde kombinlenerek uygulandıklarında hücre içinde etkileştiği hedef moleküllerin saptanması, ilgili etkileşimlerin moleküler mekanizmalarının aydınlatılması için yüksek potansiyel taşıdığını düşünmekte ve bu konuda farmasötik ve farmakokinetik araştırmalar için Harpagophytum procumbens’i önermekteyiz. 508 VI.

En çok Güney Afrika’da yayılım gösteren Şeytan pençesi geleneksel tıpta toz halinde, çay şeklinde veya topikal uygulamalarda geniş uygulamalara sahiptir. Geleneksel tıpta antiromatizmal, ağrı kesici ve antiinflamatuvar etkinlikleri sebebiyle çokça kullanılan Şeytan pençesinin birçok deneysel çalışmada da antiinflamatuvar, antiromatizmal ve analjezik gibi farmasötik özellikleri Alzheimer, romatoid artrit, osteoporoz, diyabet gibi hastalıkla bağlantılı olarak rapor edilmiştir. Bununla birlikte anjiyojenezi inhibe ederek antikanser ve antimetastatik özellik gösterdiğinden dolayı alternative kanser tedavisinde kullanılabileceği ve kanser hücrelerinde sitotoksik etki gösterdiği bilinmektedir. Ayrıca, farklı hücrelerde gerçekleştirilen çalışmalarda antioksidan özelliği nedeniyle serbest radikalleri azaltarak hücre canlılığını koruma özelliğinin olduğu farklı Şeytan pençesi ekstresi formları için belirtilmiştir. Ancak, fibroblast hücrelerinde Şeytan pençesinin sitotoksisitesi veya proliferasyona etkisini gösteren bir çalışmaya henüz rastlanmamıştır. Bu nedenle bu çalışmada, fare fibroblast hücrelerinde (NIH/3T3) farklı konsantrasyonlar ve zaman aralıklarında Şeytan pençesi bitkisinin sitotoksisitesinin olup olmadığı MTT kolorimetrik testi kullanılarak araştırılmıştır. Elde edilen deney sonuçlarından Şeytan pençesi bitkisinin NIH/3T3 hücrelerinde sitotoksisiteye neden olmadığı aksine hücre proliferasyonunu zamana ve konsantrasyona bağlı olarak indüklediği saptanmıştır. Bu proliferasyon indükleyici özellik nedeniyle Şeytan pençesi bitkisini hücre canlılığını koruma potansiyelinin ve potansiyel hücre bölünmesini hızlandırıcı etkisinin ortaya moleküler mekanizmalarıyla birlikte konulması gerektiğini düşünmekte, proliferasyonu indükleyici mekanizması, hücre içerisinde etkileştiği hedef moleküller ve etkileşim şekilleri aydınlatılmak üzere daha ileri araştırmalar için önermekteyiz.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EVALUATION OF THE CYTOTOXICITY OF DEVIL'S CLAW PLANT ON MOUSE FIBROBLAST CELLS Abstract Devil's claw is a plant belonging to the Pedaliaceae family, containing many bioactive substances. Devil's claw, which is most common in South Africa, has wide applications in traditional medicine in powder form, tea form or topical applications. Devil's claw, which is widely used in traditional medicine due to its antirheumatic, analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities, has also been reported in many experimental studies in connection with diseases such as Alzheimer's, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis and diabetes. However, it is known that it can be used in alternative cancer treatment because it shows anticancer and antimetastatic properties by inhibiting angiogenesis and has a cytotoxic effect on cancer cells. Additionally, in studies conducted on different cells, it has been stated for different forms of Devil's claw extract that it has the ability to protect cell viability by reducing free radicals due to its antioxidant properties. However, no study has yet been found showing the cytotoxicity or proliferation effect of Devil's claw on fibroblast cells. Therefore, in this study, whether the Devil's claw plant has cytotoxicity in mouse fibroblast cells (NIH/3T3) at different concentrations and time intervals was investigated using the MTT colorimetric test. From the experimental results obtained, it was determined that Devil's claw plant did not cause cytotoxicity in NIH/3T3 cells, on the contrary, it induced cell proliferation depending on time and concentration. Due to this proliferationinducing feature, we think that the potential of the Devil's claw plant to protect cell viability and its potential cell division accelerating effect should be revealed together with its molecular mechanisms, and we recommend it for further research to elucidate its proliferation-inducing mechanism, the target molecules it interacts with in the cell and the interaction patterns.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Harpagophytum procumbens subsp. procumbens (Burch.) Pedaliaceae familyası üyesi, Güney Afrika'nın Kalahari bölgesinde yetişen önemli bir şifalı bitkidir. Kullanımı Güney Afrika'nın yerli San ve Khoi halkı arasında öne çıkmış olup daha geniş kitlelerce benimsenmiştir (Gxaba & Manganyi, 2022; Mncwangi, Chen, Vermaak, Viljoen, & Gericke, 2012). Etnobotanik kullanımlarından bazıları ateş, diyabet, ishal ve kan hastalığıdır. H. procumbens'in ikincil yumrularının ekstraktlarının dejeneratif romatoid artrit, osteoartrit, tendinit, böbrek iltihabı, kalp hastalığı, hazımsızlık, iştah kaybı ve yara iyileşmesinin tedavisinde etkili olduğunu göstermektedir (Clarkson, Campbell, & Smith, 2003; McGregor et al., 2005). H. zeyheri ve H. procumbens bitkileri Şeytan pençesi olarak bilinmektedir ve bu isimle kullanılmaktadır. H. zeyheri'de H. procumbens’e kıyasla daha düşük oranda biyolojik olarak aktif bileşen bulunmaktadır. H. procumbens genellikle tercih edilen ticari üründür ve katkı maddesi olarak ürünlere ilave edilmektedir (Georgiev, Alipieva, & Orhan, 2012; Ncube et al., 2021). Örneğin; H. procumbens, Nambiya’da ticari açıdan önemli bir bitki türü olup milli gelire yüksek katkı sağlamaktadır. Küresel satışlar değerlendirildiğinde ise yalnızca Almanya için yaklaşık 30 milyon Euro değerinde bir kümülatif satış hacmi rapor edilmiştir (Mncwangi et al., 2012; Soulimani, Younos, Mortier, & Derrieu, 1994). Figür 1. H. procumbens görüntüsü ve yayıldığı coğrafya (Mncwangi et al., 2012) 513 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şeytan pençesi geleneksel tıpta toz halinde, çay şeklinde veya topikal olarak (merhem olarak) geniş uygulamalara sahiptir. Geleneksel tıpta antiromatizmal, analjezik ve antiinflamatuvar etkinlikleri sebebiyle çokça kullanılan Şeytan pençesinin birçok deneysel çalışmada da antiinflamatuvar, antiromatizmal ve analjezik gibi farmasötik özellikleri Alzheimer, romatoid artrit, osteoporoz, diyabet gibi hastalıklarla bağlantılı olarak rapor edilmiştir. Şeytan pençesi anjiyojenezi inhibe ederek antikanser ve antimetastatik özellik gösterdiğinden dolayı alternatif kanser tedavisinde kullanılabileceği ve kanser hücrelerinde sitotoksik etki gösterdiği rapor edilmiştir. Farklı hücre hatları üzerinde gerçekleştirilen çalışmalarda antioksidan özelliği nedeniyle serbest radikalleri azaltarak hücre canlılığını koruma özelliğinin olduğu farklı Şeytan pençesi ekstresi formları için belirtilmiştir (Ahmed, Afifi, & Hamdy, 2005; Gyurkovska et al., 2011).Şeytan pençesinin iki ana bileşeni harpagosid ve iridoid glikozittir. Ayrıca, harpagit ve prokumbit de Şeytan pençesinin içeriğinde yer almaktadır. Köklerinde ise iridoid glikozitler (Qi et al., 2006), şekerler, triterpenoitler (oleanolik ve ursolik asit), fitosteroller, aromatik asitler ve flavonoitler (luteolin ve kamferol) gibi temel kimyasal bileşikler bulunmaktadır (Anauate, Torres, & de Mello, 2010). Figür 2. H. procumbens ana etken maddesi Harpagosit’in kimyasal yapısı (Peruru et al., 2020) Literatürde, Şeytan pençesinin biyolojik aktivitelerinin lenfosit ve makrofaj hücrelerinde araştırılıp konsantrasyon ve zamana bağlı sitotoksik etkilerinin olduğu gösterilmiştir (Gyurkovska et al., 2011; Ncube et al., 2021). Ancak, fibroblast hücrelerinde Şeytan pençesinin sitotoksisitesi veya proliferasyona etkisini gösteren bir çalışmaya henüz rastlanmamıştır. Bu nedenle, mevcut çalışmada, Şeytan pençesi bitkisinin sitotoksisitesinin farklı zaman 514 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal aralıklarında fare fibroblast (NIH/3T3) hücrelerinde farklı konsantrasyonlar denenerek MTT kolorimetrik testi ile araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Materyal ve Metod Hücre kültürü Bu çalışmada kullanılan NIH/3T3 fare fibroblast hücreleri %10 serum (Fetal Bovine Serum/FBS) ve %1 penisilin/streptomisin içeren Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) besi yerinde standart hücre kültürü şartlarında (37°C, 5% CO2) uygun nem içeren inkübatörde çoğaltılmıştır. Hücreler 3 günlük periyotlarla pasajlanmış ve tüm flaş tabanını kaplayan konfluent hücreler deneylerde kullanılmıştır (Sahinturk, Kacar, Vejselova, & Kutlu, 2018). MTT kolorimetrik testi NIH/3T3 hücreleri 96 kuyulu plakalara (5x103/kuyu) ekilmiştir. Şeytan pençesi DMSO’da çözülmüş ve 200 µg/mL konsantrasyondan seri dilüsyonu seyreltilerek kuyulara dağıtılmıştır. Plakalar standart hücre kültürü şartlarında 24, 48, 72 ve 96 saat süre ile inkübe edilmiştir. Süre sonunda kuyucuklara 20 μL MTT (5mg/mL) ilave edilerek, 37 oC’de 4 saat daha inkübe edilmiştir. İnkübasyon sonunda 200 μL/kuyu DMSO ilavesi yapılarak Synergy HTX (Bio-Tek, USA) plaka okuyucusunda 564 nm dalga boyunda absorbanslar okunmuştur. Elde edilen absorbans değerlerinden kontrol kuyusu absorbansına kıyasla yüzde canlılık değerleri hesaplanmıştır. Yüzde canlılık değerlerinden IC50 değerleri hesaplanmıştır (Sahinturk et al., 2018). İstatistiksel analiz Deneylerden elde edilen bulgular ortalama ± standart hata olarak belirtilmiştir. GraphPad 6.0 programı ile tek yönlü varyans analizi (ANOVA) kullanılarak değerlendirilmiş ve anlamlılık değerleri saptanmıştır. p<0.5 değerinin altında olanlar istatistiksel olarak anlamlı kabul edilmiştir. Bulgular ve Tartışma Farklı zaman dilimlerinde NIH/3T3 hücrelerine uygulanan farklı H. procumbens konsantrasyonlarının hücre canlılığına etkileri Figür 3-6’da gösterilmiştir. 515 VI.

In vitro çalışmalarda makrofaj hücrelerine uygulanan Şeytan pençesi bitkisinin su, etanol ve dietil asetat ekstrelerinin diklofenaka kıyasla farklı sitotoksik etki gösterdiği raporlanmıştır (Ncube et al., 2021). Literatürde Şeytan pençesinin TH1 (lenfosit) hücrelerinde konsantrasyona bağlı sitotoksisiteye neden olduğu belirtilmiştir (Hostanska, Melzer, Rostock, Suter, & Saller, 2014). Bu çalışmada, literatürde yer alan sitotoksisite bulgularının aksine, NIH/3T3 hücreleri üzerine H. procumbens’in proliferasyonu tetikleyici etkisinin konsantrasyona ve zamana bağlı olarak mevcut olduğu gösterilmiştir. Bu proliferasyonu indükleyici etkinin deneylerde kullanılan hücre türüne, konsantrasyon aralığına, H. procumbens türü ve ekstre elde edilen bitki kısmına bağlı olabileceği değerlendirilmiştir. 517 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Sonuç ve Öneriler Elde edilen deney sonuçlarından Şeytan pençesi bitkisinin NIH/3T3 hücrelerinde sitotoksisiteye neden olmadığı, aksine hücre proliferasyonunu zamana ve konsantrasyona bağlı olarak indüklediği saptanmıştır. Bu proliferasyon indükleyici özellik nedeniyle Şeytan pençesi bitkisini hücre canlılığını koruma potansiyelinin ve potansiyel hücre bölünmesini hızlandırıcı etkisinin ortaya moleküler mekanizmalarıyla birlikte konulması gerektiğini düşünmekte, proliferasyonu indükleyici mekanizması, hücre içerisinde etkileştiği hedef moleküller ve etkileşim şekilleri aydınlatılmak üzere daha ileri araştırmalar için önermekteyiz. 518 VI.

Hence, social sustainability of Osun festival in a UNESCO World heritage site, Nigeria was assessed to harness the host communities’ perceptions of tourism’s social sustainability. Fourteen host communities in Osogbo and Olorunda Local Government Area were selected for the study, three hundred and eighty-four (384) copies of questionnaires were administered to residents within ages 18 years and above. Data obtained were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Pearson's correlation. Findings from the study revealed that 54.5% of the respondents were male, 53.9% were married, Secondary School education was highest (50.8%) and 51.6% were self-employed. Overall, 57.3% of the respondents were actively involved in Osun festival while 37.0% were attendees. Perception that Osun festival is the most important event in the community was highest with mean value of 4.39, the festival contributes to communities cultural enrichment (mean = 4.38) and preservation of cultural heritage in the community is positively influenced by Osun festival had a mean value 4.25. Moreover, residents’ positive perception of tourism sustainability was enhanced by the economic benefits of the festival. Furthermore, the festival has been socially sustainable in the region because the preservation and promotion of local culture and traditions promotes tourism (mean=4.45), the empowerment program (4.37), and community participation in decision making improve tourism social sustainability (4.44). There is a significant relationship between the residents’ involvement in Osun festival and their year of residency, origin and religion (p<0.05). The study concluded that community residents' ideology and opinions are critical for promoting and improving tourism social sustainability and it is recommended that the management of the Osun Osogbo World Heritage site develop long-term collaborative initiatives with host communities and various stakeholders to foster commitment to the adoption of sustainability practices.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 1. INTRODUCTION Globally, tourism is regarded as an effective tool and contributor to reduce the rate of poverty in addition to aiding the economic development of some locals and communities around the world. Mondal & Samaddar (2021) revealed that the environment, local community and economy are the three pillars of sustainability, which are also the essential part of responsible tourism. Sustainable tourism encompasses the economic, social and environmental sustaining, which aligns with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Sustainable tourism plays an important role by promoting and increasing the economic growth of a tourism destination, which helps to attain economic sustainability. Within the process of developing a sustainable tourism sector, the local community is the key element, as it is directly affected by its evolution (Eshliki & Kaboudi, 2017). Della et al. (2019) observed that involvement of local businesses and communities whilst ensuring that the economic benefits is equally share among all stakeholders is one of the many roles and functions embedded and carried out in sustainable tourism.Therefore, the notion of social sustainability acknowledges the relevance of communities’ attitudes and support for tourist development in achieving long-term effects (Muresan et al., 2016). Social sustainability, a key element in sustainable tourism promote equitable development among the people, preservation of cultural heritage and improving the quality of life. Rastegar & Ruhanen (2021) provide an insight on the empowerment of the local communities and preservation of their cultural traditions and heritage through sustainable tourism with exchange of local knowledge. In alignment with SDGs 11, Sustainable tourism aims to enhance the quality of life for both residents and visitors. This is also achievable together with sustainable tourism practices within the destination (Ivars-Baidal et al., 2021). The substantive aspect of social sustainability is concerned with the needs, rights, and general well-being of the local community, whereas the procedural dimension is concerned with the means of achieving those substantive aspects, such as improving information access, decisionmaking roles, empowerment, and democratic governance. In this context, understanding residents’ perception of tourism social sustainability is crucial to Identify areas of concern and opportunities for improvement. For the sustainability of tourism destination and long term viability, responsible tourism practices and local community participation are essential for promoting equitable development among the people, preservation of cultural heritage and improving the quality of life are ways by which sustainable tourism helps to support social sustainability while it mitigates the negative impacts of tourism on the environment and also help to conserve the natural resources. 522 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Festivals are notable occasions set aside either annually or occasionally to commemorate significant events in people’s and communities lives and this include coronation, worship of god(s), rites of passage, history of origins, start of planting season, and many others (Ezenagu, 2016). Festivals have some benefits it contributes to tourism by attracting visitors, increasing local economies, and improving the overall tourist experience. However, festivals have a widespread economic impacts and can offer unique cultural experiences by allowing visitors to interact with local culture and immerse themselves in the host community's traditions and customs. In lieu of this, tourism stakeholders and investors must understand the significance of festivals and fully realize their potential for attracting tourists and contributing to long-term tourism growth.The Osun Festival is an annual cultural celebration that takes place in Osogbo, the capital city of Osun State in southwestern Nigeria. The festival is dedicated to Osun, the Yoruba goddess of fertility and water. It has deep historical and religious significance for the people of Osogbo and has been celebrated for centuries. The two weeks festival celebration takes place in August, begins, and ends in the town palace of Ataoja. On the 12th day, the entire Osogbo population undertakes a procession into the World Heritage Sacred Grove in Osogbo. The votary maid (Arugba), the Ataoja, leads the procession of devotees, supported by high chiefs, to the Osun courtyard, which is located around the first palace within the grove, the point of offering on the riverbank (NCMM, 2023).The Osun Festival is culturally significant which attracts tourists from different parts of the world, exposing them to the rich cultural heritage of the Yoruba people. It showcases various aspects of Yoruba cultural practices, including music, dance, art, and religion. Through participation in the festival, residents of Osogbo metropolis are able to reconnect with their cultural roots and maintain a sense of identity and belonging (Elizabeth, 2014). The residents are able to reinforce their cultural identity and strengthen their sense of belonging to the community. This connection to heritage is crucial for maintaining a cohesive and sustainable society (Olatumile, 2019). Exploring residents’ perceptions of the festival’s impact on their community and cultural identity will provide insights into the role of cultural festivals in enhancing social sustainability of tourism at the site. This study is based on three objectives: (i) to assess residents’ involvement in Osun Osogbo festival, (ii) assess the residents’ perception of the social impacts of Osun festival tourism on the local community and (iii) explore the factors influencing residents’ perceptions towards tourism social sustainability of Osun Osogbo festival. The study aims to analyze the residents' perception of tourism social sustainability of the Osun festival and recommend strategies for promoting socially sustainable tourism. Moreover, the research will fill gaps in the existing literature and contribute to the 523 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal broader discourse on social sustainability of tourism for promoting sustainable tourism practices and community engagement in tourism planning. 2. MATERIALS AND METHODS Study Area: The study was carried out in Osogbo. Osogbo is the capital of Osun State, Nigeria and it is located between 6º 55’ to 8º 15’N and 4º 10’ to 5º 10’E. Osogbo has a total area of 250 Km2. It is bound in the north by Olorunda Local Government Area, in the south by Ede North and Atakumosa Local Government Areas, in the east by Obokun and Boripe Local Government Areas, and in the west by Egbedore Local Government Area. Osun Osogbo Sacred Grove (OOSG) is 75 hectares of undisturbed rainforest and the World Heritage Site is located in Osogbo Local Government Council, State of Osun, Nigeria, at 7° 45' 20'' N /4° 33' 08''E and the main venue of Osun Osogbo festival (Procession to OOSG Plate 1). Osun State lies on a relatively flat plain of about 250 m above sea level within the western Nigeria plains. The climatic condition of Osogbo in Osun State, Nigeria, is characterized by a tropical climate, specifically falling under the Aw (Tropical savanna) climate classification according to the Köppen climate classification system. Osogbo falls within the lowland tropical rainforest vegetation characterized by multiple canopies and lianas, most of which have since been given to secondary forest and derived savannah due to intensive cultivation and bush burning for several years (Ogunfolakan et al., 2016).

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Plate 1: Procession into the Osun Osogbo World Heritage Sacred Grove 2.1 Data Collection The study adopted quantitative method of data collection. Data were obtained through administration of structured questionnaire with the residents of Osogbo to assess their perception of tourism social sustainability. Fourteen (14) host communities in Osogbo and Olorunda Local Government Areas were selected for the study. Krejcie and Morgan sample size table cited in Abdullateef & Olajide (2013) was used to determine a population sample size of three hundred and eighty-four (384). Likert scale questionnaire was administered to 384 residents within ages 18 years and above (201 respondents in Osogbo and 183 respondents in Olorunda Local Government areas). 2.2 Data Analysis The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics of frequencies, percentages, means and standard deviation, and inferential statistics. Inferential statistics tools used was Pearson’s correlation for hypothesis testing. The variables on residents' perceptions of tourism's social sustainability of Osun Osogbo festivals at the heritage site were measured using Sözen (2019) five-point Likert scale, anchored from 1 (Strongly Disagree) to 5 (Strongly Agree). The mean of each statement was determined and used to categorize the responses as SA (4.21 - 5.00), A (3.41 - 4.20), Neutral (2.61 - 3.40), D (1.81 - 2.60), and SD (1.0 - 1.80). 3. RESULT AND DISCUSSION The findings on the socio-demographics characteristics of the respondents revealed that 54.5% were male, 53.9% were married and 51.0% were between 26-45 years. This is in conformity with Adetola & Osanyinleye (2016) which had 55.0% as males and 59.5% married respondents in their study on tourism acceptability in the host communities of Osun Osogbo Sacred Groove. 525 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal In addition, 50.8% of the respondents had secondary school education and 48.7% practiced Christianity this compliments the work of Oladeji et al. (2021) with 48.3% as Christians in Osun Osogbo communities and contradicts Aleshinloye (2015) that had 36.8% of Secondary education in the study area.

This corroborates with the findings of Vu Hoang (2021) that there is a close relationship between the conservation and promotion of cultural heritage and tourism development. Also, Bozdaglar (2023) reported that Empowerment programs play a crucial role in promoting tourism social sustainability. This is also consistent with the findings of Bello (2021) that emphasized on the importance of empowerment programs 530 VI.

This is supported by the findings of the Wang et al., (2021) which emphasizes the influence of religious festival marketing on devout believers and tourists, highlighting the retention of religious rituals’ essence and spirit in festivals. Woosnam & Aleshinloye (2015) emphasized the role of the relationship between residents and tourists in explaining perceived impacts of festivals, indicating a potential connection to residents’ years of residency.

CONCLUSION The findings of this study add to the existing literature on social sustainability in tourism by investigating the social sustainability perception of the Osun Osogbo festival at Nigeria's World Heritage site. It was found out that Osun Festival is an important event in the communities, which encourage and promote the participation of the residents in the event. Perceptions of the festival's social impacts is high as it contribute to community cultural enrichment and encourage interaction between visitors, residents and management of the grove. The study further revealed that economic benefits and their level of involvement influenced the perception of the residents towards tourism social sustainability. To ensure that this is sustained, the benefits derived from tourism must improve the overall quality of life for residents and have positive economic impact. Preservation and promotion of local culture and traditions, capacity of residents, as well as enlightening them to actively participate more in and benefit from tourism activities can lead to more sustainable practices among residents and improve tourism’s social sustainability. 532 VI.

Bu araştırmanın amacı Türk sporunda spor tesisleri sorunun incelenmesidir. Araştırmada nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden doküman analizi yöntemi tercih edilmiştir. Araştırmada ilk olarak Türk sporunda spor tesisleri sorunu ile ilgili akademik makeleler, tezler, dergiler, gazeteler ve kitap dokümanlarına ulaşıldı ve orijinallikleri kontrol edildi. Daha sonra ayrıntılı inceleme yapılarak araştırma ile alakalı yayınlar belirlendi. Belirlenen dokümanlar okunarak yorumlanmıştır. Spor tesisleri, barındırdıkları yoğun aktivitelerden dolayı yüksek oranda aşınma ve yıpranma yaşamaktadır. Bununla birlikte aydınlatma, havalandırma, ısıtma, soğutma, yetersiz otopark alanları, spor tesislerininin tasarımı, personel yetersizliği ile tesislerin işletilmesinin doğru yapılmaması hem tesislere hem de sporculara ve seyircilere zarar verebilmektedir. İnsanlar spor tesislerini kullanırken hem spor hem de sağlık amaçlı tesislere yönelmektedirler. Ancak teknolojik gelişmelerin tesislerde istenilen şekilde yer almaması, tesislerin yerleşim yerlerinden uzak yapılması, spor tesislerindeki dağılımının adil bir şekilde olmaması, temizlik ve hijyen durumunun yetersiz olması, tesislerde kütüphane, kantin, ilk yardım odaları vb. olanaklarının yetersiz olduğu belirlenmiştir. Son yılarda ülkemizde devletimizin katkılarıyla önemli spor tesisleri yapılmış ve birçok sporcunun yetiştirilmesine katkı sağlanmıştır. Ancak, tesis sayısının artması, antrenör ve yönetici görevlendirilmesinin yapılmasına rağmen tesislerin planlanması, işletilmesi ve kullanılmasında istenilen seviyeye ulaşılamamıştır. Spor kulüpleri de tesisleşmede yetersiz kalmaktadır. Sonuç olarak; spor tesislerinin eksikliği bazı bölgelerdeki bireylerin spor aktivitelerine katılamaması, sportif becerilerinin geliştirilememesi ve bu bireylerin dezavantajlı duruma düşmeleri anlamına gelmektedir. Spor tesislerinin azlığı ve ayrılan bütçenin eksikliği bu alanda daha fazla devlet ve özel sektör yatırımına ihtiyaç olduğunu söyleyebiliriz. Anahtar Kelimeler: Spor, Tesis, Spor Tesisi 536 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal SPORTS FACILITIES PROBLEM IN TURKISH SPORTS Abstract We can define sports facilities as areas consisting of stadiums, gyms, swimming pools, tennis courts, billiard halls and places where individuals come together to exercise and watch sports competitions. The aim of this research is to examine the sports facilities problem in Turkish sports. Document analysis method, one of the qualitative research methods, was preferred in the research. In the research, firstly, academic articles, theses, magazines, newspapers and book documents related to the problem of sports facilities in Turkish sports were accessed and their originality was checked. Then, a detailed review was conducted and publications relevant to the research were identified. The specified documents were read and interpreted. Sports facilities experience high levels of wear and tear due to the intense activities they host. However, illumination, ventilation, heating, cooling, insufficient parking areas, design of sports facilities, lack of personnel and improper operation of the facilities can harm both the facilities, the athletes and the spectators. When people use sports facilities, they turn to facilities for both sports and health purposes. However, it was determined that technological developments were not included in the facilities as desired, the facilities were built far from residential areas, the distribution of the sports facilities was not fair, the cleaning and hygiene conditions were inadequate, and the facilities such as libraries, canteens, first aid rooms, etc. were insufficient. In recent years, important sports facilities have been built in our country with the contributions of our state and contributed to the training of many athletes. However, despite the increase in the number of facilities and the appointment of coaches and managers, the desired level has not been reached in the planning, operation and use of the facilities. Sports clubs are also inadequate in terms of facilities. In conclusion; The lack of sports facilities means that individuals in some regions cannot participate in sports activities, their sports skills cannot be developed, and these individuals become disadvantaged. We can say that there is a need for more state and private sector investments in this area due to the scarcity of sports facilities and the lack of allocated budget.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Spor ülkemizde milyonlarca vatandaşın hayatında önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Gerek spor salonlarında, stadyumlarda, okullarda gerekse televizyon kanallarında, gazetelerde ve sosyal medya aracılığı ile insanların önemli bir kısmı sporu takip etmekte ya da spor aktivitelerine katılım sağlamaktadır. İnsanların hem spor aktivitelerine katılım sağlaması hem de sporu takip etmeleri için spor tesislerine ihtiyaç vardır. Spor tesislerinin olmadığı yerlerde birçok spor aktivitesi yapılamamaktadır. Spor tesisleri bireylerin sağlıklı olması, fiziksel aktivitelere katılım sağlaması ve sosyalleşmesinde önem arz etmektedir. Sporda başarıyı etkileyen en önemli faktörlerden biride iyi şekilde yapılan spor tesisleridir. Spor ancak tesis, eğitim, donanım ve spor organizasyonundan oluşan temel faktörlerin bir arada bulunduğu bir ortamda var olur ve gelişir. Spor tesisi denilince akla sadece antrenman veya müsabakaların yapıldığı spor alanı gelmemelidir. Spor tesisi terimi; eğitim tesisleri, beslenme ve dinlenme sosyal tesisleri, yaralanma ve tedavilerde kullanılacak ilk yardım ve rehabilitasyon merkezleri ile eğitim için gerekli film, video, kütüphane gibi salonları da içerir. Diğer bir deyişle spor tesisi, her türlü spor ve gençlik faaliyetlerinin yapıldığı kapalı veya açık sosyal hizmet amaçlı yapılmış spor tesisi olarak anlaşılmalıdır. Ayrıca spor tesislerinin sporcular için yeterli ve uygun olması, daha fazla ve daha iyi spor tesislerinin yapılması, daha fazla aktivite ve gelişim anlamına gelir (İntegralgroup, 2022).Bir ülkenin sporda başarılı olması eğitim, bilim ve teknolojik gelişmelerin yanında toplumun gelişmişliği ve izlenen politikalarla da ilişkilidir. Bu nedenle ülkeler spora daha fazla eğilerek sporda başarılı olmak için gerekli tedbirleri almalıdır (Yaman Yılmaz ve Algün Doğu, 2021). Spor tesisleri ve yapımı teknolojinin ilerlemesine paralel olarak gelişip değişmektedir (Bilgin, 1990). Spor tesislerinin dünyada yayılması ile birlikte ihtiyaçların artması ve bunun doğal sonucu olarak çok amaçlı işletmelerin yapımı, verimli kullanım açısından kaçınılmaz olmuştur. İnsanlar hem spor hem de sağlık amaçlı tesislere yönelirken, aynı işletme içinde farklı bireysel ve toplumsal ihtiyaçların giderilmesi gereği ortaya çıkmaktadır (Ceyhun, 2008). Nacar (2011) ’a göre; sporun toplumda önem kazanması ve yayılması bununla birlikte devamlı başarıların elde edilmesinde sahip olunan tesislerin işletilmesi, nitelikleri, nicelikleri yeterlilik ve doğru politikalara da bağlıdır. Spor eğitimi veren kurumlar, spor tesislerinin planlanması ve kapasitelerinin artırılması, şüphesiz ki spor eğitim kalitesini artıracaktır. Spor eğitimi veren kurumlarda, spor tesislerinin varlığı o kurumun performansında önemli bir yer tutar. Ayrıca spor tesisleri bir kurumun toplum karşındaki imajını belirler. Bu nedenle tesisleşmenin kulüpler ve sporcular üzerindeki etkisinin büyük önem taşıdığı ve ülkelerin sporcu yetiştirmek için yaptığı yeniliklerin tesisleşme ile başladığı 538 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal sonucuna varılmaktadır.Günümüzde her ilde ve ilçede futbol sahaları bulunmaktadır. Bunların elbette ki kapasitesi ve kalitesi tartışılabilir. Ancak diğer spor dallarında bu kadar yaygın bir tesis yapılanması yoktur. Futboldaki tesis yapılanması konusunda ise kapasite ve kalite konusunda sorunlar bulunmaktadır. Avrupa’da çok büyük kapasiteli ve kaliteli stadyumlar bulunurken, Türkiye’deki kapasitesi yüksek ve kaliteli stadyumların sayısı bir elin parmaklarını geçmeyecek kadar azdır. Ancak onlarda da sorunlar yok değildir. Futbol tesislerinde devlet yardımları yapılmaktadır. Anadolu kulüpleri olarak tabir edilen küçük takımların spor tesislerinde devlet yardımı ile son yıllarda modern tesisleşmeye sağlanmaya başlanmıştır. Tesislerin kapasitesinin yüksek olması ve kalitelerinin iyi olması, futbol izleme keyfini artıracağı gibi güvenlik açısından ve şiddet olaylarının önlenmesi açısından da önemlidir. Dünya kupası müsabakalarına talip olan Türkiye’nin bu noktada nicelik ve nitelik olarak yetersiz olan başta stadyumları olmak üzere tüm spor dallarındaki tesislerin iyileştirilmesi gerekmektedir (Gürsoy, 2014). Bu araştırmanın amacı Türk sporunda spor tesisleri sorunun incelenmesidir. MATERYAL VE METOT Araştırmada nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden doküman analizi yöntemi tercih edilmiştir. Araştırmada ilk olarak Türk sporunda spor tesisleri sorunu ilgili akademik makeleler, tezler, dergiler, gazeteler ve kitap dokümanlarına ulaşıldı ve orijinallikleri kontrol edildi. Daha sonra ayrıntılı inceleme yapılarak araştırma ile alakalı yayınlar belirlendi. Belirlenen dokümanlar okunarak yorumlanmıştır. BULGULAR Bugün tesisleşme anlamında kulüpler önemli adımlar atmaktadırlar. Bir kulübün varlıkları açısından böylesine yatırımlar, uzun vadede önemli menfaatler sağlayacaktır. Sportif amaçlı komplekslerle ilgili olabileceği gibi (stadyum, spor sahası, antrenman sahası, kamp tesisleri vb.), sosyal ve idari amaçlı (dernek binaları, yönetim merkezleri, sosyal tesisler vb.) da olabilmekte. Ancak başta yeni stadyumların inşası ve renovasyonu olmak üzere uzun yıllara yayılan ve büyük bütçeler gerektiren bu tür projeler, beraberinde ciddi bir ek finansman ihtiyacını getirmektedir. Operasyonel gider bütçesinde iki yakası bir araya gelmeyen, faiz ve kur farkı gibi finansal giderlerin ağır yükünü taşıyan, gelir projeksiyonlarında işlerin sık sık beklendiği kadar rayında gitmeyebildiği bir ortam oluşturmaktadır (Sezgin, 2016). 539 VI.

(2012), araştırmalarında Türk spor yönetiminde yerel yönetimlerin spora tesis ve malzeme olarak katılımlarının oldukça az olduğu, sporu yaygınlaştırma çalışmaları için yeterli olanaklara sahip olunmadığı, Berkant ve Hekimoğlu (2021), araştırmalarında sporcu yetiştirilmemesinin en önemli nedenlerinin tesis yetersizliği ve malzeme eksikliği olduğunu, Özer ve Dikmen, (2020), araştırmalarında bireylerin tesislerden yeterince yaralanamadığını, Güler ve Ekinci (2021), spor tesislerinin temininde sorunlar yaşandığını, Tekin ve ark. (2020), tesislerin olmamasının fiziksel aktivitelere katılıma engel durumların olduğunu ifade etmişlerdir.Spor tesisleri ile ilgili bir diğer sorun ise Devletin mülkiyetindeki spor saha ve tesislerinin talepte bulunulması halinde isteyen yahut daha güçlü olan spor kulübüne tahsis edilmesi, kiralanması, kullanım hakkının uzun süreli devredilmesi, aynı spor branşında faaliyet gösteren diğer kulüpleri zor durumda bırakmaktadır. Zira kullanım hakkını eline geçiren kulüp diğer kulüplerin bu spor saha ve tesislerinden yararlanmasına izin vermemekte ya da işin ticaretini yaparak ve tesis bakımından tekelleşerek devletin belirlediği meblağdan daha yüksek kullanım bedeli istenmektedir (İmamoğlu ve ark., 2007). Bu durum ise spor tesisleri olmayan spor kulüplerini sıkıntıya sokabilmektedir.Ayrıca, farklı kamu kurumlarına ait spor tesislerinin ortak kullanımı ve mesai saatleri dışında hizmet verilmemesinde de sıkıntılar yaşanmaktadır. Bu nedenle, spor tesislerinin bölgesel ve branşlar bazında dengeli dağılımını ve etkin kullanımını sağlayacak tesis politikalarının geliştirilmesi ihtiyacı bulunmaktadır (T. C. Kalkınma Bakanlığı, 2014).Demiröz (2009), tesislerde yapılan sportif organizasyonların, işletmecilik boyutları ve yönetim fonksiyonları açısından, planlama, organize etme, yürütme, denetim ve kontrol süreçlerinin antrenör ve sporcuların beklenti ve ihtiyaçlarına cevap veremediği, spor tesislerinde aktivite yapılması için verilen sürenin ve kişilerin boş zamanlarında spor yapma isteği ile tesislerin gün içinde açık kalma ve uygun ortam oluşturabilme uyumunun yetersiz olduğunu belirlemiştir. Çiçek (2022), araştırmasında tesislerin kütüphane, internet, kantin, tv odası, yönetici, sağlık görevlisi, masör, sağlık kabini, ilk yardım odaları vb. olanaklarının ise yetersiz olduğunu belirlemiştir.Çelik (2018), araştırmasında temizlik ve hijyen durumunun, saha ve zeminin, spor malzemelerinin, sağlık kabini ve ilk yardım odalarının, sosyal aktivite alanlarının ve engelli sporculara yönelik tesislerin yeterliliğinin antrenör ve sporcuların beklenti ve ihtiyaçlarını karşılamadığı belirlenmiştir. 540 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal TARTIŞMA VE SONUÇ Sporu oluşturan bileşenlerden biri de spor tesisleridir. Topluma en iyi şekilde spor hizmeti verilmesinde spor tesislerinin niteliği önemli bir kriterdir. Sporun yaygınlaştırılmasında spor tesislerinin sayı ve çeşitliliğinin, toplumun spora ilişkin beklenti ve ihtiyaçlarının belli bir politika çerçevesinde ele alınması gerekmektedir (Karataş ve ark., 2011). Ülkemizde alt yapıdan sporcu yetişememesinin temel nedeni olarak tesisleşme yetersizliği olduğu görülmektedir. Antrenman yapılacak tesislerin azlığı, var olanların da yeterli düzeyde olmadığını söyleyebiliriz (Çevik ve Onağ, 2019). Halkın ilgi duyduğu halde spor yapmasına engel teşkil eden faktörlerin başında yeterli spor tesisinin olmamasının geldiği tespit edilmiştir (Karataş ve ark., 2011). Ünal (2001), Çanakkale’de yaptığı çalışmada, Şahin (2007), Karaman ilindeki yaptığı çalışmada, sporu yapmak istediğiniz halde spor yapmaya mani olan haller nelerdir sorusuna bölgede istenilen branşa ait tesisinin bulunmamasının neden olduğu cevabı verilmiştir. Yavaş ve ark. (2017); Günakan ve Ataçocuğu (2021), ülkemizdeki tesis sayısı ihtiyacı karşılamada yetersiz olduğunu belirlemişlerdir. Kubat ve Yildiz (2022), antrenörlerin kulüplerin tesislerine ilişkin tesisleşme ile ilgili problem yaşadıkları ve çözüm olarak fonksiyonel tesisler inşa edilmesini, tesislerde beslenme ve barınma imkânlarının sağlanmasını, tesislerin içinde sporcuların öğrenim görecekleri okulların açılmasını önermişlerdir. Spor tesisleri sayısının artması, planlı bir şekilde organize edilmesi ile sporcu sayılarında da artış olacaktır. Örnek olarak; Türkiye Tenis Federasyonu Başkanı Cengiz Durmuş lisanslı sporcu sayısı 2013'te 27 bin civarında iken 2023'te 102 bin 352'ye kadar yükseldiğini, Türkiye Tenis Federasyonu tarafından 600'u ulusal, 200'ün üzerinde turnuva düzenlenirken, ülke genelinde oteller, kulüpler, belediyelerin tesisleriyle amatör ve profesyonel olarak binlerce kort bulunduğunu belirtmiştir (Zeyrek, 2023).Ülkemizde sporun şimdiye kadar yeterince yaygınlaştırılamamasındaki faktörlerden birisi, spor tesislerindeki dağılım ve kalite eksikliği ile bunların optimal ölçülerde kullanılmamasıdır. Tesisler planlanırken bölgelerarası nüfus artışı, coğrafi konum, iklim ve demografik yapıyı dikkate alan ulusal düzeyde spor tesis politikaları oluşturulmadığından bölgesel ve spor branşları bazında dengesizlikler ortaya çıkmıştır (T. C. Kalkınma Bakanlığı, 2014). Sonuç olarak; ülkemizde Devletimizin katkılarıyla son zamanlarda önemli spor tesisler yapılmış ve birçok milli sporcu, profesyonel sporcu ve amatör sporcunun yetiştirilmesine katkı sağlanmıştır. Tesis sayısının artması ile birlikte vatandaşlarımızda bu tesislerde spor yapma imkânına kavuşmuştur. Tesis sayısının artması, antrenör ve yönetici görevlendirilmesi yapılmasına rağmen tesislerin planlanması, işletilmesi ve kullanılmasında 541 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal istenilen seviyeye ulaşılamamıştır.Tesisler inşa edilirken, tek tip projeler ile şehirlerin ihtiyaçları düşünülmeden tasarlanması, tesislerin yeterli donanıma sahip olmaması, teknolojik gelişmelerin tesislerde istenilen şekilde yer almaması, özellikle yerel yönetimlerin istekleri doğrultusunda yapılan tesislerin çoğunun doğru planlanmadığı (bölgede ihtiyaç olmamasına rağmen bir birine çok yakın yerlerde 3 tane yüzme havuzunun yapılması gibi), yapılan tesislerin yerleşim yerlerinden uzak yapılması, tesis yöneticilerinin çoğunluğunun spor eğitimi alanında uzman olmaması nedeni ile tesisleri kullanan vatandaşların memnuniyet düzeylerinin azalmasına ya da tesislerin kullanmamasına neden olmaktadır.Kamu kurumları, yerel yönetimler, spor kulüpleri, spor kuruluşları spor tesisleri planlamalarını yaparken birbirleriyle iletişim halende olmaları, projeler üzerinde fikir alıverişinde bulunmaları tesislerin kullanımı ve her vatandaşın spor faaliyetlerine katılım sağlamaları açısından önem arz etmektedir. 542 VI.

Kurumsallaşma, kulüplerin daha profesyonel bir yönetim anlayışı benimsemesini sağlar, kulüplerin işletme süreçlerini daha etkin bir şekilde yürütmesine ve daha etkili kararlar almasına olanak tanır. Bu araştırmanın amacı, ülkemiz futbol kulüplerindeki kurumsallaşmanın mevcut durumunun incelenmesidir. Araştırmada nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden doküman analizi yöntemi tercih edilmiştir. Araştırmada ilk olarak Türk futbolunda kurumsallaşma ile ilgili akademik makeleler, tezler, dergiler, gazeteler ve kitap dokümanlarına ulaşıldı ve orijinallikleri kontrol edildi. Daha sonra ayrıntılı inceleme yapılarak araştırma ile alakalı yayınlar belirlendi. Belirlenen dokümanlar okunarak yorumlanmıştır. Ülkemiz futbol kulüplerindeki kurumsallaşmanın mevcut durumu incelendiğinde, kulüp yönetimlerindeki kişilerin alanlarında uzmanlaşmamış, görev, yetki ve sorumluluk alanları ile ilgili bilgiye sahip olmadıkları, kişiye bağlı yönetimlerin yaygınlaştığı, hukuki, mali ve yönetsel sorunların olduğu, kulüplerin gelişimi için sistemli bir planlamanın olmadığı, altyapıya yeterli önemin verilmediği, Türkiye Futbol Federasyonu tarafından alınması gereken tedbirlerin zamanında alınmadığı, sorunların çözümünde futbolun tüm paydaşları ile fikir alış verişinde bulunulmadığı bu sebeplerden kaynaklı futbol kulüplerinin kurumsallaşma çabalarının ideal standartlarda olmadığı belirlenmiştir. Sonuç olarak, Türkiye’deki futbol kulüplerinin kurumsallaşma sürecinde başarılı oldukları söylenemez. Futbol kulüplerinin uzun vadede rakipleriyle mücadele etmesi ve güçlü bir kurumsal yapı için futbol kulüplerinde profesyonel bir yönetim anlayışının benimsenmesi gerekmektedir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INSTITUTIONALIZATION IN FOOTBALL CLUBS Abstract Sports clubs need institutionalization to ensure their sustainability and long-term success, to compete with other clubs and to make financial profits. Institutionalization enables clubs to adopt a more professional management approach, allowing clubs to carry out business processes more effectively and make more effective decisions. The purpose of this research is to examine the current status of institutionalization in football clubs in our country. Document analysis method, one of the qualitative research methods, was preferred in the research. In the research, firstly, academic articles, theses, magazines, newspapers and book documents related to institutionalization in Turkish football were accessed and their originality was checked. Then, a detailed review was conducted and publications relevant to the research were identified. The specified documents were read and interpreted. When the current state of institutionalization in football clubs in our country is examined, it can be seen that the people in club management are not specialized in their fields, do not have knowledge about their areas of duty, authority and responsibility, personal management has become widespread, there are legal, financial and managerial problems, there is no systematic planning for the development of the clubs, and sufficient importance is not given to infrastructure. It has been determined that the institutionalization efforts of football clubs are not at ideal standards due to these reasons, that the required measures are not taken by the Turkish Football Federation in a timely manner, that there is no exchange of ideas with all stakeholders of football in solving the problems. As a result, it cannot be said that football clubs in Turkey are successful in the institutionalization process. In order for football clubs to compete with their rivals in the long term and to have a strong corporate structure, a professional management approach must be adopted in football clubs.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Futbol, sosyal etkisi ve gençliğe aktardığı kayda değer katkıdan ötürü, bir oyundan daha fazla anlam taşımaktadır. Futbol milyonlarca kişinin ilgisini çekerken, futbol kulüplerinin yönetimleri ise, milyonları temsil etmektedir. Bu nedenle, futbol kulüplerini yönetenlerin, bu kulüpleri en yüksek standartlarda yönetme sorumluluğu bulunmaktadır. Özellikle 1990’lı yılların başından itibaren endüstriyel sürece doğru yönelen futbol, kulüpleri de sportif organizasyonların yanı sıra ekonomik organizasyonlara dönüştürmektedir. Futbolun bu değişen yapısı, kulüplerde ‘‘kurumsal yönetim’’ uygulamalarını zorunlu hale getirmiştir. Kurumsal yönetimin sağlanabilmesi ise; kurum içi hiyerarşisi doğrultusunda doğru planlama, doğru iş bölümü, çalışanlara sağlanacak rahat çalışma ortamı ve onlara verilecek değerle birlikte oluşacak örgüt kültürüne bağlıdır (Yıldız, 2017).Günümüzde futbol oyunu tüm dünyada herhangi bir ticari sektör gibi serbest pazar norm ve kurallarına tabi görülmektedir. Gelecek dönemlerde gerek yönetsel gerekse de ekonomik olarak ayakta kalabilir olmayan herhangi bir spor kulübü futbol dünyası içinde varlığını sürdürmekte güçlük çekecektir. Bu bağlamda, spor kulüpleri çağdaş işletmeciliğin başarı getiren yöntemlerini yürütmek ve kurumsal yönetimin gereklerini uygulamak konumundadırlar (Katırcı ve Uztuğ, 2009).Spor kulüpleri, başka kulüplerle rekabet düzeyinde var olabilmek ve kâr elde edebilmek için kurumsallaşmaya ihtiyaç duymaktadırlar. Kurumsallaşma, işletmelere, çevrede meydana gelen değişimlere uyum sağlamakta kolaylık sağlayabilmektedir. Aynı zamanda kurumsallaşma, işletmenin içyapısında yer alan faktörlere de etki edebilmektedir. Bu faktörler arasında örgütsel bağlılık, örgütsel performans ve iş tatmini de yer alabilmektedir (Kekül ve Genç, 2023). Kurumsallaşmayı sağlamak için gerek duyulan bazı temel ilkeler mevcuttur. Kurumsallaşmayı oluşturan unsurlar profesyonelleşme, formalleşme, otonomi, kültürel güç, saydamlık, sosyal sorumluluk ve tutarlılıktır (Apaydın, 2007).Kurumsallaşma, işletme yapısının belirli ilke ve standartlara göre yeniden yapılandırılması, yönetici ve çalışanların işin ehli kişilerden olması ve işletmenin bilgiye dayalı bir anlayış içinde çalışması demektir (Uzunçarşılı vd., 2000, akt, Şahman ve ark., 2008). Kurumsallaşmada kişilerden çok tüzel kişilik ön plana çıkmaktadır. Diğer bir ifadeyle amaç; bireylere göre bir işleyiş değil, tamamen bireylerden bağımsız olacak şekilde, modern yapıda bir iş ve işleyiş bilinciyle hareket etmek ve bu sistemli organizasyon yapısını; yönetim, tedarik, üretim, insan kaynakları, finans vb. işletmenin fonksiyonlarına yayarak, sistemin tüm organizasyona hâkim kılınmasını sağlamaktır (Taş ve Akdemir, 2005, akt. Kekül ve Genç, 2023). 548 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Spor kulüplerinin idari, mali ve hukuki pek çok sorunu olduğu düşünüldüğünde kulüp yönetiminde yönetişimin geliştirilmesi de bu sorunların çözülmesinde önemli bir yaklaşım olacaktır. Bu, aynı zamanda kulüplerin kurumsallaşması yönünde de atılmış önemli bir adım olacaktır. Kulüpte yönetişim ve kurumsal yönetim ilkelerinin uygulanması, kulüp idaresindeki aksaklıkların hemen tespitinin ve Yönetim Kurulunun harekete geçmesinin sağlanması yanında, oluşan zarar ve ziyanın belirlenmesi, kulübün pay sahiplerinin, paydaşlarla, taraftar/tüketiciyle olan ilişkilerinin koordine edilmesi, yönetim kurulu üyelerinin ve yöneticilerin performans değerlendirmesi, diğer kulüp çalışanlarının kariyer planlaması ve ödüllendirilmesi ile ilgili işlevlerin yerine getirilmesinde önemli sonuçlar doğuracaktır. (T.B.M.M., 2011). Bu araştırmanın amacı, ülkemiz futbol kulüplerindeki kurumsallaşmanın mevcut durumunun incelenmesidir. MATERYAL VE METOT Araştırmada nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden doküman analizi yöntemi tercih edilmiştir. Araştırmada ilk olarak ülkemiz futbol kulüplerindeki kurumsallaşmanın mevcut durumu ile ilgili akademik makeleler, tezler, dergiler, gazeteler ve kitap dokümanlarına ulaşıldı ve orijinallikleri kontrol edildi. Daha sonra ayrıntılı inceleme yapılarak araştırma ile alakalı yayınlar belirlendi. Belirlenen dokümanlar okunarak yorumlanmıştır. BULGULAR Spor kulüplerinin kuruluş statüleri, farklı üst yapılara karşı sorumluluklarının olması, yapısal ve yasal sorunlar, kulüpler arasında haksız rekabet ve gelir eşitsizliğinden kaynaklanan sorunlar, kurumsallaşma anlayışındaki sorunlar, kişiye bağlı yönetimden kaynaklı sorunlar, maddi gelir elde etmede yaşanan sorunlar ve sportif sonuçlara endeksli olmaktan kaynaklanan sorunlar gibi başlıca nedenlerden dolayı kurumsallaşma sürecinde bir takım sıkıntılar yaşadıkları ortaya çıkmaktadır. Ayrıca UEFA kriterlerinin uygulanması ile başlayan spor kulüplerinde yeniden yapılanma çalışmalarına spor kulüplerine özgü yasal ve kanuni düzenlemeler ile katkı sağlanması gerektiği, kurumsallaşmayı yasalara bağlayarak kulüpler için zorlayıcı bir özellik olarak oluşturulması, spor kulüplerinde görev alacak kişilerin alanlarında uzmanlaşmış, bilgi ve deneyim sahibi olması gerektiği ve başkan veya yönetim kurulunun maddi gücüne dayalı olan kulüp yönetim sistemi yerine sürdürülebilir bir yönetim sisteminin spor kulüplerinde var olması gerektiği görülmüştür (Sönmezoğlu, 2013). Çöten (2007), Türkiye Süper Lig kulüplerini örnek alarak profesyonel futbolun idari ve teknik yapılanmasını analiz 549 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ettiğinde Süper Lig kulüplerinin yönetim etkinliklerini ideal standartlarda olmadıklarını belirlemiştir. Kulüp idari ekibinde yer alan elemanların görev, yetki ve sorumluluk alanları ile ilgili bilgiye sahip olmamalarının örgütte iletişim güçlüklerine yol açtığı, sorumluluk alanlarının ve görev dağılımının açık şekilde belli olmaması sistemli bir işleyişin olmadığını, kulüplerin profesyonel yöneticiler tarafından idare edilmediğini, kulüplerin sistematik bir şekilde planlaması yapılmış amaçlar doğrultusunda hareket etmediğine, kulüp yöneticilerinin görev yaptığı alanlarda uzman olmadıklarını belirlemiştir Ülkemizde de spor kulüpleri kurumsallaşamama nedeniyle hukuki, mali ve yönetsel birçok sorunla karşı karşıya kalmıştır. Birçok spor branşında gelir kaynağı bulmakta sıkıntılar yaşanmakta, amatör düzeyde destek bulmakta zorluklar çekilmesi nedeniyle de halkın spora aktif katılımı sağlanamamaktadır. Bireysel yetkinlik ve kuruluş kalitesi dolayısıyla rekabet açısından eksiklikler ortaya çıkmakta bu nedenle de spor kulüpleri ciddi sıkıntılar yaşamaktadır (T.B.M.M., 2011) Türkiye profesyonel liglerinde yer alan futbol kulüplerinin yönetimsel, organizasyon, idari, teknik, sağlık, eğitim, destek kadroları yetersiz oldukları için çok ciddi sorunlar yaşamaktadırlar. Bu sorunlar ise işin nihayetinde sportif boyutta saha içine yansımakta ve başarısız sonuçlar ortaya çıkmaktadır (Öz, 2020).Avşar ve Kurtipek (2024), Galatasaray spor kulübü ile ilgili araştırmalarında başarı için kişilerin öne çıkarılmasından ziyade kurumsallaşmaya yönelik sistemin oluşması gerektiği, kulüp yönetiminde finansal ve yönetsel açıdan kurumsallaşmanın sağlanamadığı sonucuna ulaşmışlardır. Üye sayısının artmasıyla seçilecek bir yönetimin, sorumlulukları tüzükle belirlenmiş ve maaşları genel kurulda açıklanan profesyonel yöneticilerin ve kulüp öz kaynaklarından çıkacak sporcularla elde edilecek katma değeri yüksek sportif başarıların Galatasaray’ın kurumsallaşması için önemli görülmektedir (Avşar ve Kurtipek, 2024).Taştan (2021), araştırmasında profesyonel futbol kulüp yöneticilerinin sportif ve finansal başarısızlıklarının nedenleri ile ilgili yaptıkları açıklamalara ilişkin içerik analizi incelendiğinde katılımcılar, profesyonel futbol kulüplerinin sportif ve finansal başarısızlıklarının nedenlerini sırasıyla %26,52 ile kulüp yöneticilerini, %23,48 ile kulüplerin ekonomik yönetimlerini, %16,67 ile altyapı ihtiyacını ve altyapıdan oyuncu yetiştirmeyi, %14,39 ile Türkiye Futbol Federasyonu tarafından yapılması beklenen ekonomik tedbirleri ve kulüplerin mali denetimlerini, %12,12 ile transferler ile yaşlı ve pahalı transferleri, %5,30 ile sonuncu sırada devlet desteği olarak sıralanmıştır.Biçer ve ark. (2022), araştırmalarında profesyonel futbol kulüplerinin oyuncular, altyapı, menajerler, teknik direktörler, kulüpler ve taraftarlarla sorunlarının olduğu tespit etmişlerdir. Türkiye’deki futbol kulüp yöneticilerinin 550 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal başarılı olabilmeleri için sportif başarının yanında birçok unsuru göz önünde bulundurması ve futbolun tüm paydaşları ile sorunlarını en iyi şekilde çözmesi gerekmektedir. Kurumsallaşmanın ülkemizde ve dünyadaki önemine yapılan vurgu farklı sektörleri de içine alarak her geçen gün artmaktadır. Çünkü kurumsallaşma örgütlerin kendilerini geleceğe taşımalarında ve yer aldıkları sistem içerisinde kendilerini kabul ettirmede önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Örgütler kurumsallaşarak meşruluk, tahmin edilebilirlik ve istikrar kazanmakta, ayrıca işletme kaynaklarını artırarak çevreye uyum sağlamaktadırlar. Örgütlerin kurumsallaşma sürecinin temelinde, ‘biçimsel faaliyet yapısı’, ‘biçimsel organizasyon yapısı’, ‘profesyonelleşme’, ‘yetki devri’, ‘kültürel güç’, ‘kurumsal çevreye uyum’, ‘kurumsal sosyal sorumluluk’, ‘toplumsal değer ve normlara uyum’, ‘şeffaflık ve hesap verebilirlik’ ve ‘biçimsel yapıya uyum’ esasları bulunmaktadır. Tarım, sanayi, hizmet vb. sektörlerdeki örgütlerde çıktı; ürün, performans göstergesi; kâr ya da bir buluş, varlıklar; entelektüel sermaye, know-how, şerefiye gibi değerler olurken, spor sektöründe bu unsurlar nispeten farklılaşmaktadır. Sporda çıktı sportif başarıdır. Sportif başarı içinse finansal güç, varlığın sürdürülmesinde gerekli kaynakları elde etmek için faaliyetlerin kârlılıkla sonuçlanması, örgüte bağlı ve uzmanlık sahibi çalışan/yönetici ve sporcuların varlığı gereklidir (Dağlı Ekmekçi ve İrmiş, 2015). TARTIŞMA VE SONUÇ Kurumsal sürdürülebilirlikte, futbol kulüpleri sürdürülebilirlik performanslarının artırılması için sürdürülebilirliğin ekonomik, çevresel ve sosyal etkenlerinin tüm stratejik ve operasyonel süreç ve karar mekanizmalarına dâhil etmeleri gereklidir. Ancak, futbol kulüplerinin ekonomik, sosyal ve çevresel kaynakları nasıl kullandıklarını, ne kadar verimli kullandıklarını ya da olumsuz etkileri bertaraf etmek için ne gibi önlem aldıklarını söylemek mümkün değildir (Darama, 2021).Kulüpler, birbirlerine benzeme eğilimi göstererek kurumsallaştıklarını düşünmektedirler. Ancak kulüplerin kurumsallaştıklarını düşünmelerine rağmen finansal durumlarının zararda olması, kurumsallaşma ilkelerini yerine getirmedikleri sonucunu ortaya çıkarmaktadır. Kulüplerin finansal ve sportif başarısının arttırılması için bir iktisadi örgütün yapması gereken kurumsallaşma ilkelerini, kişisellikten uzak, profesyonel kurumsal yönetim anlayışı ile kararlılıkla uygulaması gerektiği değerlendirilmektedir (Taştan ve Donuk, 2021).Kurumsallaşabilen yapı, ortak aklın yönetim ve denetimine giren; sistematik yönetimin hâkim yönetim yapısı hâline geldiği; şeffaflığın, hesap verebilirliğin ve katılımcılığın ana ekseni olduğu yönetsel örgütlenmeyi tanımlamaktadır. Sporda kamu, federasyonlar, kulüpler, teknik direktörler, sporcular, hakemler, taraftarlar ve medya gibi pek çok aktör ve paydaş 551 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal bulunmaktadır. Bunların tamamının fikirlerini aktarabileceği bir üst yönetim mekanizması geliştirilmesi, bütün sorunların yansıtılması yanında; birlikte çözüm bulunması açısından da önem taşımaktadır (T.B.M.M., 2011). Kulüplerin kurumsal yönetim yapılarını bir an önce oluşturmaya başlamaları gerekir. Kurumsal yönetimin yerleşmesi bir süreçtir. Bu uygulama ile kulüplere etkinlik, şeffaflık, hesap verebilirlik, açıklık, devamlılık gelecektir. Kurumsallaşmanın yolu şirketleşmeden değil, yönetimde evrensel ilkelerin uygulanmasından geçmektedir. Futbol kulüplerinin arzulanan sportif ve mali başarısının elde edilebilmesinin temel şartı futbol kulüplerinin profesyonel yöneticiler tarafından yönetilmesi ve kulüplerin kurumsallaşmasıdır (Uluyol, 2014).Günümüz dünyasında en yaygın spor branşı olarak kabul edilen futbolun, geniş kitlelerin katılımıyla bu varlığını sürdüreceği tüm otoriteler tarafından kabul görmektedir. Futbol yönetim ve organizasyonlarının bilimsel metotlar ışığında, futbol yönetimi uzmanları ve kuruluşları ile birlikte, günümüz şartlarına uygun, geniş katılımlı ve paylaşımcı ortamlarda ele alınarak “Modern Futbol Yönetimine” uygun planlanıp değerlendirilmesi, futbolunun gelişerek, yaygınlaşmasının yanı sıra, uluslararası rekabet şansını artırarak, verimlilik esasına dayalı, istihdam ve katma değer yaratarak, kitlelere ulaştırılması gerekmektedir (Devecioğlu ve ark., 2014)Kulüpler, kurumsal değerlerini arttırmak, varlıklarının sürdürülebilirliği sağlamak ve endüstriyel futbolun sağladığı maddi ve manevi yararlardan uzun süreler yararlanabilmek için bu rekabetçi düzen içerisinde öncelikle organizasyon yapılarını sağlamlaştırmak ve rekabete uygun bir hale getirmek zorundadır. Bu nedenle kulüpler verimli ve etkin bir biçimde işleyen iç denetim mekanizmaları oluşturmak ve oluşturulan bu iç denetim mekanizmalarının sağlıklı, verimli ve etkin bir biçimde işletilmesini sağlamak zorundadırlar (Tanış, 2015). Sonuç olarak; Türkiye’deki futbol kulüplerinin kurumsallaşma sürecinde başarılı oldukları söylenemez. Ülkemizdeki futbol kulüplerinde spor yönetimini bilmeyen yöneticilerin çoğunlukta olması nedeniyle kulüp içi çatışmalar yaşanmakta kulüplerin kötü yönetilmesine, etkili kararların alınamamasına ve kurumsal yapılarının zayıflamasına neden olmaktadır. Türkiye'deki birçok futbol kulübü sağlıklı bir kurumsallaşma yapısı oluşturamaması nedeniyle gelir kaynaklarını çeşitlendirememekte ve mali açıdan sorunlar yaşamaktadırlar. Çoğu kulüp harcamalar hakkında üyelerini şeffaf bir şekilde bilgilendirmediği için kulübün imajı olumsuz etkilenmektedir. Kulüplerin altyapılarında sporcu yetişmemesi, hukuki sorunlar, kulüp tüzüklerinin güncelliğini yitirmesi ya da tüzük maddelerinin uygulanmaması, kulüp yöneticilerinin siyasilerin etkisinde kalması da futbol kulüplerinin kurumsallaşma sürecini olumsuz etkilemektedir. Futbol 552 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal kulüplerinin uzun vadede rakipleriyle mücadele etmesi ve güçlü bir kurumsal yapı için futbol kulüplerinde profesyonel bir yönetim anlayışının benimsenmesi, finansal denetimlerin ve altyapı yatırımlarının arttırılması gerekmektedir. 553 VI.

Bu sektörde, çalışan sayılarının çok yüksek olduğu büyük şirketlerle birlikte, çalışan sayılarının daha az olduğu orta ve düşük ölçekli firmalarda bulunmaktadır. Özellikle orta ve düşük ölçekli şirketler incelendiğinde, yönetim organizasyonlarında ve stok takiplerinde ajanda, not defteri veya excel gibi geleneksel sayılabilecek yöntemlerle yürüttükleri görülmektedir. Bu geleneksel yönetim yaklaşımı günümüzdeki bilişim teknoloji çözümlerinin çok uzağında kalmaktadır. Bu çalışma kapsamında literatür ve piyasadaki ürün olarak kullanılabilen uygulamalar incelenmiştir ve inşaat firmalarıyla ihtiyaç analizi için görüşmeler yapılmıştır. Mevcut kullanılan uygulamalar incelenirken depo stok takibinin tutulması için inşaatta kullanılan yüzlerce malzemenin sisteme tek tek elle tanımlanmasının oldukça zahmetli olduğu gözlemlenmesine rağmen bu problemi çözmek adına derin öğrenme destekli bir uygulamaya rastlanmamıştır. Bu çalışmada orta ve düşük ölçekli firmalar için herhangi bir sistem odası, sunucu gibi bir planlamaya ihtiyaç olmaksızın web uygulaması üzerinden hizmet alıp firmalarını yönetebilecekleri, ayrıca stok takibini derin öğrenme desteğiyle fotoğraf çekerek hızlı bir şekilde sisteme aktarabilecekleri bir uygulama geliştirilmiştir. Geliştirilen sistemde veri tabanı olarak Firebase kullanılmıştır. Ara yüz Bootstrap kütüphanesi kullanılarak kullanıcı dostu olarak geliştirilmiştir. Stok takibi için geliştirilen derin öğrenme modelinin eğitiminde Python programlama dili ve YOLO-V8 kütüphanesi kullanılmıştır. Web uygulaması fotoğraf eklendiğinde anlık olarak fotoğraftaki demirleri adet bilgisiyle birlikte veri tabanına işlemektedir. Bu sayede malzemelerin tek tek sayılma işlemi için gereken iş gücünün azaltılması sağlanmıştır. Anahtar Kelimeler: İnşaat Otomasyonu, Derin Öğrenme, YOLO-V8, Görüntü İşleme 556 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT AND IMAGE PROCESSING BASED INVENTORY TRACKING AUTOMATION Abstract InToday, the construction sector holds a significant volume worldwide, reaching trillions of dollars. Within this sector, there are large companies with high numbers of employees as well as medium and small-scale firms with fewer employees. Particularly when examining medium and small-scale companies, it is observed that they manage their management organizations and inventory tracking using methods that could be considered traditional, such as agendas, notebooks, or Excel. This traditional management approach falls far behind the current information technology solutions.In this study, applications that can be used as literature and in the market were examined, and discussions were held with construction companies for needs analysis. While examining the existing applications, it was observed that manually defining hundreds of materials used in construction for inventory tracking is quite laborious, yet no deep learning-supported application has been encountered to solve this problem.In this study, an application has been developed for medium and small-scale firms, where they can manage their businesses via a web application without the need for any infrastructure like a system room or server. Additionally, they can quickly transfer inventory tracking data to the system by taking photos with deep learning support. Firebase was used as the database in the developed system, and the interface was developed to be user-friendly using the Bootstrap library. Python programming language and the YOLO-V8 library were used for training the deep learning model developed for inventory tracking. When a photo is added to the web application, it instantly processes the rebars in the photo along with the quantity information into the database. This reduces the manpower required for counting materials individually. Keywords: Construction Automation, Deep Learning, YOLO-V8, Image Processing 557 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Endüstri 4.0 ilk olarak 2011 yılında Hannover fuarında ortaya atılmıştır. Bu tarihte n iki yıl sonra, 2013 yılında Almanya’da stratejik girişim alanı olarak belirlenmiştir(L. Da Xu vd., 2018). Dördüncü sanayi devrimi olarak adlandırılan bu gelişme ile endüstrinin farklı alanlarında Endüstri 4.0’a olan ilgi artmıştır. Endüstri 4.0 temel olarak bilişim teknolojileri ile endüstriyi bir araya getirmeye hedef almaktadır. Bu kapsamda 3d yazıcılar(Uygunoğlu vd., 2019), IOT cihazları(UYGUNOĞLU & TOPÇU, 2020), giyilebilir teknolojiler(Akçamete Güngör, 2018), arttırılmış gerçeklik(Shirazi & Behzadan, 2014), yapay zeka(Y. Xu vd., 2022), ve genel olarak yazılım teknolojilerinin endüstri içerisinde sektörüne uygun şekilde kullanılması, endüstrideki farklı sektörler ile bilişim sektörünü bir araya getirmektedir. Bu yenilikçi teknolojilerin kullanılmasıyla birlikte insan gücüne olan ihtiyacın azalması ve verimliliğin arttırılması amaçlanmaktadır(Maskuriy vd., 2019). Verimliliğin artırabilmek için ilk olarak endüstrinin dijital bir dönüşüme ihtiyacı olduğu görülmektedir. Günümüzde bazı sektörlerde bu dönüşüme hızlı bir şekilde adapte olabilirken özellikle inşaat sektörü gibi sektörler bu dönüşüme hızlı adapte olamamışlardır(Betül AKBAY vd., 2023). İnşaat sektörü içerisinde birbirini takip eden birçok alt iş sürecini barındıran yönetimsel anlamda takibinin yapılması oldukça karmaşık bir yapıya sahiptir[atıf]. Türkiye ekonomisinde önemli bir yere sahip olan inşaat sektörü gümüz dünyasındaki teknolojinin gerisinde kalmaktadır. Özellikle orta ve düşük ölçekli firmalar kağıt üzerinde veya excel tablolarında kayıt tutmak gibi geleneksel yöntemler kullanarak işletmelerini sürdürürken, etkin bir süreç yönetimi gerçekleştirememektedirler(Betül AKBAY vd., 2023). Etkin bir süreç yönetimi için sektöre ihtiyaçlarına uygun şekilde hazırlanmış otomasyon yazılımlar kullanılması, burada oluşan verimsizliğin önüne geçebilecektir. İnşaat sektöründe işletme süreçlerini etkin bir şekilde yönetebilmek için üretilmiş ücretli yazılımlar bulunmaktadır. Ürün olarak satılan PirCloud(Pir, t.y.), Yapıtaşı Erp(Yapıtaşı Bilgi CRM, t.y.), Imperium(Imperium - İnşaat Yönetim Yazılımı, t.y.), Tekprosis(İnşaat Yazılımı - Tekprosis, t.y.), İnşaat Erp(İnşaat ERP - Uyumsoft, t.y.) ve OPwire(Opwire App, t.y.) yazılımları incelenmiştir. Bu alan yapılmış birçok uygulama olmasının yanında reel sektörde kullanım oranın düşük olması, yapılan literatür araştırmalarında, adaptasyon zorlukları, teknolojik becerilerin zayıf olması, bilişim yatırımının düşük olması gibi sebeplerden kaynaklandığı öne sürülmüştür(Maskuriy vd., 2019). Bu durumda sektör çalışanlarındaki dijital beceri ve adaptasyonun artması için, inşaat sektörü için geliştirilecek uygulamaların kullanıcı dostu ara yüzler ve yapay zeka desteğiyle kullanım kolaylığı sağlaması gerekmektedir. Bu çalışma kapsamında inşaat sektörün ihtiyaçları ve 558 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal mevcut yazılımların zayıf olduğu yönleri tespit edilerek, kullanıcı dostu ara yüzlere sahip ve yapay zeka desteğiyle insan iş gücünü maliyetlerini düşürmeyi hedefleyen bir otomasyon yazılımı geliştirilmiştir. Geliştirilen yazılım projelerin gelişiminin raporlanması, ustaların performanslarının izlenmesi, maaşlar, sigorta bilgileri, bütçe yönetimi gibi tüm sürecinin takip edilmesini sağlamaktadır. Web uygulaması olarak geliştirilen bu yazılım NextJS, TypeScript, JavaScript HTML dillerini kullanmaktadır. Ayrıca stok takibi yapılırken gelen inşaat malzemelerinin tespit ve sayım işlemlerinin kayıt altına alınabilmesi için derin öğrenme yöntemleri kullanılmıştır. Günümüzde nesne tespiti için oldukça yaygın kullanılan YOLOv8 kütüphanesi prototip olarak demir bağları için eğitilmiş ve anlık olarak uygulama üzerinden bir fotoğraf yüklenmesiyle resimde bulunan demir bağlarının kaç tane olduğu bilgisini hesaplayıp uygulamadaki stoka ekleyebilmektedir(Hussain, 2023). Bu sayede şantiyeye gelene malzemelerin stok takibi sadece fotoğraf çekilerek hızlı bir şekilde yapılabilecektir. METOT Bu çalışmada sektörde faaliyet gösteren cedde inşaat firması ile görüşmelere yapılarak ihtiyaç analizi oluşturulmuştur. Belirlenen analiz ile stok takibi, isçi yönetimi, maaş avans işlemleri, sigorta işlemleri, günlük puantaj, proje yönetimi gereksinimlerinin olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu gereksinimleri karşılamak için bir web uygulama geliştirilmiştir. Web uygulaması geliştirilirken backend için NextJs programlama dili frontend için HTML, JavaScript, Css, BootStrap programlama dilleri ve kütüphaneleri kullanılmıştır. Stok takibi modülünde geliştirilen görüntü işleme işlemleri için Python dili ile YOLO v8 kütüphanesi kullanılmıştır. Geliştirilen uygulamanın mimarisi Şekil 1’de sunulmuştur. Şekil 1. Web uygulama mimarisi 559 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Web uygulamasını mimarisi incelendiğinde oluşturulan web sayfaları backend ile haberleşmektedir. Backend kısmında ise veri tabanı olarak firebase üzerinde veri depolama ve veri okuma işlemlerini gerçekleştirmektedir. Stok takibi modülünden görüntü işleme için bir resim yüklendiğinde, backend kısmından farklı bir port üzerinde python tabanlı çalışan flask uygulamasına resim verisini göndermektedir. Burada önceden eğitilmiş olan model resim üzerinde nesne tespiti yapıp, tespit ettiği nesneleri işaretleyip geri döndürmektedir. Geri dönen resimde tahmin yüzdesi 50’den büyük olanlar saydırılarak ekrana yazdırılmaktadır. Kullanıcı yapay zeka tarafından yapılan sayımı güncelleyebilmektedir. Görüntü işleme akış şeması aşağıdaki Şekil 2’de sunulmuştur. Şekil 2. Görüntü işleme süreç akışı Görüntü işleme için model eğitimini, web uygulamasında hariç olarak Google Colab platformu üzerinde YOLO V8 kütüphanesi kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Çalışmanın devam eden bölümünde sonuçlar ve gelecekte yapılabilecek çalışmalar için önerileriler verilmiştir. SONUÇ Bu çalışmada inşaat sektörüne özel günlük ve haftalık puantaj, proje yönetimi, stok takibi, ve şantiye yönetimi, işçi yönetimi için bir web uygulaması geliştirilmiştir. Uygulama sektörden alınan ihtiyaç analiziyle birlikte literatürdeki inşaat sektörünün dijital dönüşüme adaptasyonunun eksikleri değerlendirilmiştir. Sektör çalışanlarının geleneksel yöntemlerden vazgeçip dijital bir yönetim uygulama adapte olmalarını kolaylaştırmak için kullanıcı dostu bir ara yüz tasarımı gerçekleştirilirmiştir. Uygulama geliştirilirken NextJs, TypeScript, Html, JavaScript, Css teknolojileri ve veri tabanı olarak firebase kullanılmıştır. Şantiyede birçok çeşitte mal geldiği ve bu malların stok takibinin yapılması oldukça önemli bir adımdır. Gelen ürünlerin tek tek sayılması, gelen ürün sayısının çok fazla olduğu düşünüldüğünde zahmetli bir iş olmaktadır. Burada oluşan sayma işlemini hızlandırmak için yapay zekadan faydalanılmıştır. Demir bağları tespiti ve sayımı için bir veri seti oluşturulmuştur. Oluşturulan veri seti YOLO V8 ile eğitilmiş ve %99.4 başarım elde edilmiştir. Eğitilen modele web uygulaması üzerinden fotoğraf yüklenerek tahmin ve saydırma işlemi yapılabilmektedir. Sayılan demir adetleri kullanıcı onayı ile otomatik olarak veri tabanına yazılarak stok takip işlemini kolaylaştırmaktadır. Çalışmada prototip olarak oluşturulan veri seti sadece demir bağlarını kapsamaktadır. İnşaatta stok takibi yapılan birçok çeşitte ürün vardır. Bu sebeple stok takibi tüm ürünler için yapay zeka desteği sağlayamamaktadır. Gelecekte yapılacak çalışmalarda veri seti inşaatta kullanılan tüm ürünler için genişletilip YOLO ile tekrardan eğitilirse tüm stok takibi sürecinde yapay zekadan faydalanılabilir. Böylelikle stok sayımı için harcanan iş yükü maliyetleri düşürülebilir. 564 VI.

Dr. Latif Onur UĞUR (ORCID: 0000-0001-6428-9788) Düzce University, Faculty of Engineering, Department of Civil Engineering, Düzce-Türkiye Email: latifugur@duzce.edu.tr Özet Monte Carlo benzetimi, Çok sayıda tekrarlanan rastgele örneklemelerle, bir takım nümerik sonuçlar elde etmeye yarayan ve bilimin birçok alanında yaygın olarak kullanılan bir sayısal hesaplama algoritmaları sınıfıdır. Bilgisayar programları, geçmiş verileri analiz etmek ve bir eylem seçimine dayalı olarak bir dizi gelecekteki sonucu tahmin etmek için bu yöntemi kullanır. Yüksek Öğrenimde başarılı olmanın önemli kriterlerinden birisi final sınavlarında alınacak notların düzeyidir. Bu çalışmada Düzce Üniversitesi İnşaat Mühendisliği Bölümü’nü kazanan bir öğrencinin meslek derslerinden ne kadar başarılı olabileceği araştırılmıştır. Bu amaca yönelik olarak mezuniyet durumuna gelmiş 20 bölüm öğrencisine, 22 adet meslek dersleri final sınavlarından bekledikleri notlar ile aldıkları notlar arasındaki farkların yüzdeleri sorulmuştur. Alınan yanıtların (+) ve (-) olmak üzere ortalamalarını almıştır. Bu değerler beklenen değerlerden artı ve eksi yönlerde maksimum sapma oranlarına karşılık gelmektedir. Monte Carlo Yöntemi kullanarak Üçgen Dağılım için ayrı, PERT Dağılımı için ayrı olmak üzere iki ayrı simülasyon yapılmıştır. Böylece sınavlardan beklenen notlara ulaşmanın ne oranda mümkün olabileceği istatistiki olarak belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Buna ek olarak bir öğrencinin ilgili dersleri aldığında final sınavından beklediği puan tahminlerini tutturma ihtimalleri her bir ders ve dağılım için belirlenmiştir. Sonuç olarak beklenenden daha fazla sapma yaşanan derslere daha çok önem ve süre vererek çalışılması gerektiği, öngörülen sınav sonuçlarının hangi oranda gerçekleşebileceği değerlerine ulaşılmıştır. Benzer değerlendirmeler her bölüm ve ders için yapılabilir. Daha doğruya yakın değerlere ulaşabilmek için daha çok veri üzerinden çalışılması gerektiği açıktır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal A MODEL FOR DETERMINING THE ACHIEVEMENT LEVEL IN CIVIL ENGINEERING EDUCATION Abstract Monte Carlo simulation is a class of numerical computation algorithms that are widely used in many fields of science and are used to obtain a number of numerical results with a large number of repeated random samplings. Computer programs use this method to analyze past data and predict a set of future outcomes based on a choice of action. One of the important criteria of being successful in higher education is the level of grades to be taken in the final exams. In this study, it was investigated how successful a student from Düzce University Civil Engineering Department can be in vocational courses. For this purpose, 20 department students, who have graduated, were asked about the percentages of the differences between the grades they expected from the final exams of 22 vocational courses and the grades they received. The averages of the responses received were (+) and (-). These values correspond to the maximum deviation rates in the positive and negative directions from the expected values. Using Monte Carlo Method, two different simulations were made for the Triangular Distribution and separately for the PERT Distribution. Thus, it has been tried to determine statistically how much it is possible to reach the expected grades in the exams. In addition, the probability that a student will meet the score predictions expected from the final exam when he/she takes the relevant courses has been determined for each course and distribution. As a result, it has been reached the values that it is necessary to study by giving more importance and time to the courses with more deviations than expected, and at what rate the predicted exam results can be realized. Similar evaluations can be made for each department and course. It is clear that more data should be studied in order to reach more accurate values.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Bir üniversitenin temel görevleri; araştırma yapmak, bilim üretmek, üst düzeyde eğitim sağlamak, üretime, uygulamaya ve gelişen teknolojiye uyum sağlayabilecek insan gücünü hazırlamak şeklinde özetlenebilir. Ayrıca, evrensel ve ulusal kültürü ve insani değerleri özümseyen, uygar ve demokrat bireyleri yetiştirmek de bir üniversitenin görevleri arasındadır. Üniversitenin bu yöndeki eğitimi, yalnız günümüz koşullarına uymakla kalmayıp, gelecekteki ilerleme ve gelişmeleri de kapsayacak şekilde oluşturulmalıdır. Üniversiteler özgür düşünen, duyarlı, öğrenen, çağını yakalayıp aşmaya çalışan, üreten, değişime ve gelişmelere açık, uygar ve demokrat bireylerin ve meslek adamlarının yetiştirilmesini sağlamak durumundadırlar. [1] Mühendislik eğitiminde amaç, tasarım yeteneklerinin geliştirilmesi ve tasarım sorunlarının çözülmesidir. Mühendislik, analizden başlayarak toplumun ihtiyaçlarını karşılayan senteze uzanan bir yol olarak görülmelidir. Mühendislik eğitiminin temel ölçüsü, mühendislik kariyeri süresince sürekli üretken olabilen ve gelişmelere açık profesyonel mezunlar yetiştirebilmektir. Mühendislik eğitiminde ana hedef, toplumun ihtiyaçlarına çözüm oluşturabilecek niteliklere sahip elemanlar yetiştirmektir.[2]Mühendisliğin temeli, analiz edilen konunun incelenerek problem yapısının belirlenmesi ve gelişen teknoloji desteğiyle daha önce üzerinde inceleme yapılmamış özgün çalışmaların ortaya konması felsefesi üzerinedir.[3]Mühendislik eğitiminde ana prensip, mühendislik kariyeri boyunca sürekli üreten ve her türlü gelişime açık mezunlar yetiştirmektir. Mühendislik eğitimindeki amaç, toplumun ihtiyaçlarına çözüm oluşturabilecek niteliklere sahip mezunların topluma kazandırılmasıdır.[4]Modern mühendislik eğitiminde, öğrenciye dar kapsamlı teknik bilgi kazandırmak yeterli değildir. Değişen ve gelişen teknoloji toplumunun felsefesi; sadece teknik problemlere yönelip bu problemleri çözme yeteneğine sahip mühendisler yetiştirmek yerine, soruna bir bütün olarak bakabilen mühendisler yetiştirmeye doğru gitmektedir. Mühendislik eğitimi, öğrencinin ufkunu açmalı ve temel problemlerin ve çözüm metotlarının ortaya konmasını gerektirmektedir. Modern mühendislik eğitiminde hedeflenen mühendislik esaslarını ve bu esaslar dahilinde öğrenmeyi öğretmektir.[5]2002 yılında Avustralya’da, Queensland University of Technology’e başlayan öğrencilerin 2006 yılı sonunda akademik başarı durumlarını inceleyen araştırma sonuçları, öğrencilerin sadece % 20’sinin dört yıl sonunda mühendis olarak mezun olduklarını bulmuştur. Aynı gruptaki öğrencilerin % 60’ının ise mühendislik eğitimlerini yarım bıraktıkları ortaya çıkmıştır.[6] Bunun yanında İngiltere’de yapılan bir araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre; mühendislik öğrencilerinin %18’i üniversitedeki ilk yılın sonunda mühendislik eğitimini bırakmaktadırlar. Aynı araştırmada, mühendislik fakültesindeki öğretim üyelerinin %38’inin 569 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal mühendislik öğrencilerinin bu başarısızlıklarını, öğrencilerin yetersiz matematik bilgilerine bağladıkları bulunmuştur.[7]Özcan ve diğerleri, Kocaeli Üniversitesi Mühendislik Fakültesinden Bologna Süreci'ne dahil olarak mezun olmuş 3984 öğrencinin veriler üzerinden istatistiki analizler yapmışlardır. Elde edilen bulgulara göre mezunların fakülte ortak ders başarısı ve mezuniyet başarıları, ilişkili ve anlamlı derecede farklıdır. Bölümler arasında fakülte ortak derslerdeki başarı düzeyi farklılık göstermektedir. Mezunların genel mezuniyet başarısının her bölüm için bölüme giriş şekli, cinsiyet, öğretim türü, mezuniyet dönemi gibi değişkenlere bağlı olarak farklı olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.[8]Güner ve Çomak, Destek Vektör Makineleri yöntemini kullanarak riskli öğrencileri tahmin etmiştir. 2007 yılında Pamukkale Üniversitesi mühendislik fakültesine başlayan 434 öğrencinin üniversiteye giriş sınavı sonuçlarına ait verilerin kullanıldığı araştırma sonuçlarına göre; öğrencilerin matematik, fen bilimleri, Türkçe testlerinin sonuçları ile lise mezuniyet başarı puanlarının, matematik I dersindeki başarılarını tahminde önemli rol oynadığı bulunmuştur.[9]Hasan Burak Ağır ve arkadaşlarının yaptığı çalışmada, Kahramanmaraş Sütçü İmam Üniversitesi Ziraat Fakültesi öğrencilerinin öğrenim başarısını etkileyen faktörlerin belirlenmesi hedeflenmiştir. Öğrencilere yapılan anket çalışmasından elde edilen veriler değerlendirilip, lojistik regresyon analizi kullanılarak başarıyı etkileyen faktörler incelenmiştir. Yapılan incelemelerden elde edilen sonuçlara göre öğrencilerin başarısını etkileyen faktörlerin cinsiyet, mezun olunan lise türü, daha önce bitirilen yüksekokul programı ve annenin çalışma durumu olarak belirlenmiştir.[10] Günümüzde bilgisayar teknolojisinin ve programlarının gelişmesinin bir sonucu olarak, üniversite öğrencilerinin akademik başarılarını etkileyen parametreleri ve riskli öğrencileri belirleyebilmek için son yıllarda yapılan çalışmalarda, makine öğrenmesi yöntemi ve karar destek sistemleri oldukça yoğun olarak kullanılmıştır. Örneğin, iki farklı çalışmada Vandamme vd., [11] Belçika’da, Kovacic [12] Yeni Zellanda’daki üniversite öğrencilerinin akademik performanslarını tahminde belirleyici olan faktörleri “Veri Madenciliği” yöntemini, Chourdhury [13] ise “Çoklu Regresyon” yöntemini kullanarak belirlemeye çalışmışlardır. Affendey vd. [14], Bilgisayar Mühendisliği öğrencilerinin akademik performanslarının tahmininde “Naive Bayes” yöntemini kullanarak, ilk dönem alınan bilgisayar yazılım programı dersinin en belirleyici etmen olduğunu bulmuşlardır.Çağıltay ve Tokdemir, yaptıkları çalışmada, farklı öğrenme stillerine sahip kişilerin mühendislik eğitimindeki başarı durumlarını incelemişlerdir. Çalışmada Atılım Üniversitesi Bilgisayar Mühendisliği Bölümü birinci sınıf öğrencileri ile yapılan bir durum değerlendirmesi yapılmaktadır. Çalışmanın sonuçlarının mühendislik eğitimi veren birimlere, gerek eğitimlerinin genel başarısını artırıcı ve gerekse 570 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal öğrencilerin kişisel başarılarını artırıcı yönlendirici bilgiyi sağlaması hedeflenmiştir. Bu çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre, araştırmaya katılan öğrenciler içinde derste başarılı olanların büyük bir kısmının (% 85) David Kolb tarafından mühendislik alanındaki başarı oranının yüksek olduğu belirlenen iki öğrenme stilinden birisine sahip oldukları gözlenmiştir. Oysaki dersin genel başarı oranı % 43’dür. Bu durum David Kolb tarafından belirlenen öğrenme stilleri ile paralellik göstermektedir.[15]Bir kişinin kendi performansı hakkındaki algısını üstbiliş becerileri bağlamında açıklayan araştırmalarda “kalibrasyon” terminolojisinden yararlanılmıştır. Bir kişinin bir görevi tamamlarken performansına ilişkin başarı tahmini ile gerçekte ortaya koyduğu performans arasındaki uyum derecesi kalibrasyon olarak tanımlanmaktadır.[16-18]Monte Carlo simülasyonu, belirsiz bir olayın olası sonuçlarını öngören matematiksel bir tekniktir. Monte Carlo simülasyonu, tahmininde bir belirsizlik veya rastgelelik unsuru içerebilen olasılık temelli bir modeldir. Monte Carlo simülasyonu, her birinin olasılığı büyük bir rastgele veri örneği havuzundan gelecek şekilde birden fazla olası sonuç sunar. Belirleyici bir tahminden daha net bir resim sağlar. Makine öğrenimi (ML), girdi ve çıktı verileri arasındaki ilişkiyi anlamak üzere yazılımı eğitmek için büyük bir girdi ve çıktı (G/Ç) veri örneği kullanan bir bilgisayar teknolojisidir. Monte Carlo simülasyonu ise bir sistemde meydana gelen olası sonuçları tahmin etmek için girdi verisi örneklerini ve bilinen bir matematiksel modeli kullanır.[19] Amaç ve Yöntem Bu çalışmada Düzce Üniversitesi İnşaat Mühendisliği Bölümü’nü kazanan bir öğrencinin meslek derslerinden ne kadar başarılı olabileceği araştırılmıştır. Bu amaca yönelik olarak mezuniyet durumuna gelmiş 20 bölüm öğrencisine, 22 adet meslek dersleri final sınavlarından bekledikleri notlar ile aldıkları notlar arasındaki farkların yüzdeleri sorulmuştur.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal AN ACTION RESEARCH ON USING “OUTDOOR EXPERIMENTS” ON “PRESSURE” SUBJECT IN 8TH GRADE SCIENCE TEACHING Abstract It was aimed to solve the problem and provide a more efficient learning with outdoor experiments that would increase the interest and desire of the students on the subject of pressure. The study group consists of 9 eighth grade students in 8-A branch of Bozdoğan Halimoru Secondary School in Afyonkarahisar Halimoru central village in the first semester of the 2021-2022 academic year (n=9). Convenient sampling method was used. In this study, in which the participants were also active, the action research method, one of the qualitative research methods, was preferred due to its suitability for the situation. An action plan was prepared and implemented by one of the researchers, and the success of this action research was checked. This study has a mixed design structure that includes both quantitative and qualitative designs. Quantitative and qualitative tools were used while collecting data. In the quantitative part of the study, the multiple-choice pressure achievement test scale with 20 questions was applied as a pre-test and post-test. In the qualitative part, an interview form with five open-ended questions prepared by the researchers was used in the pre- and post-interview. And student diaries kept at the end of the application were used. The pressure achievement test was analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U Test, one of the nonparametric tests. Interview and diary data were interpreted as content and evaluated. In the study, there was no increase in the level of significance that would be of positive importance compared to the situation before the application. Due to the partial success of the study, new suggestions were made. Keywords: Outdoor Experiments, Outdoor Pressure, Solid Pressure, Liquid Pressure, POE Strategy 600 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction People are living in an era where there are constant changes and developments in many fields in terms of the production, utilization, and transmission of knowledge. Educators also strive to create conducive environments and make efforts to ensure more effective learning/teaching processes in order to actively engage today's students in the learning process. In this regard, various methods, techniques, environments, etc., are being explored from different perspectives, and continuous efforts are being made across a wide spectrum.The evolving technology and the pandemic conditions we are experiencing have led people to confine themselves within four walls, even isolating themselves from outdoor spaces. In this era of rapid scientific advancements and technological progress, the monotonous flow of life and lessons can appear dull to students, failing to capture their interest effectively. By enriching learning environments with diverse content, enhancing their quality, fostering children's curiosity, and preparing them for learning, we can make this process more productive.In our era of continuous change and development, teachers should aim to cultivate individuals who can research, analyze, and utilize scientific methods. Instead of directly imparting knowledge, they should equip students with the skills to access information. To achieve this, teachers must create learning environments where children can satisfy their curiosity, question, express their ideas, and establish cause-and-effect relationships. However, schools are typically designed with a focus on the idea that 'learning occurs within the classroom.' As a result, they often prioritize activities and resources within the classroom environment. Thus, the design of outdoor spaces in schools is often overlooked, and the potential of utilizing non-classroom areas as educational environments is neglected (Celep & Bacanak, 2013; Cited in: Civelek, Özyılmaz Akamca, 2017). However, outdoor spaces are equally important in education. Sometimes, teaching conducted in outdoor environments through hands-on experiences can be more engaging, effective, and stimulating, as it arouses curiosity. Children feel less constrained, which can directly or indirectly enhance teaching and learning. Teaching in outdoor environments is predominantly utilized in the literature within the scope of school gardens, excursion sites, and nature education settings. It can host important learning contexts while increasing motivation. Various definitions can be made about learning in outdoor environments. Ford (1986) defines it as the portion of the educational process that takes place outside the classroom, while according to Lewis (1975), it involves the utilization of all five senses in the learning process (Cited in: Brookes, 2004). Priest (1986) argues that in outdoor learning, all 601 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal senses are utilized, and experimental methods take precedence. The main characteristics of outdoor learning include education taking place outside the classroom, students being able to participate in activities, the use of real objects in education, the utilization of different senses in the learning process instead of rote memorization, and as a result, the activities capture students' interest (Tsai, 2006; Cited in: Tepe, Sarı & Ocak, 2020).Elliott and Davis (2009), in a study on activities conducted outdoors and in natural environments, expressed that students experienced a renewal and increase in their mental attention levels, as well as a decrease in stress levels and a sense of relaxation. They also noted that such activities fostered curiosity and a sense of inquiry (Cited in: Aynal Öztürk, 2013; Cited in: Tepe, Sarı & Ocak, 2020). Outdoor experiments can provide opportunities for students to actively participate and learn by doing, thereby facilitating experiential learning. The knowledge gained through outdoor experiments can be more meaningful and enduring in long-term memory. Outdoor experiments are often conducted with a focus on measuring interest and attitude, particularly with preschool students. Studies on science education, which include plenty of examples from daily life, have shown that students struggle with certain aspects. It can be said that there are difficulties, especially in teaching the relationship between pressure and force, and this situation also affects daily life (Çepni, 2012; Cited in: Akgün, Tokur, Özkara, 2013). It is a topic that students find interesting and directly witness in their lives (She, 2002; Cited in: Akgün, Tokur, Özkara, 2013). Mengi and Emrahoğlu (2012) stated that the level of complete transfer of eighth-grade students' science and technology topics to daily life context is quite low. It is particularly noticeable that students struggle with transferring knowledge, especially in the topic of "Pressure." The reason for this is seen as the insufficient concretization of the topic.There are numerous studies indicating that the best achievement in science education is achieved through experiential learning (Akdeniz, Çepni, & Azar, 1999; Aycan & Yumuşak, 2002; Demirci, 1993; Ergin, Şahin-Pekmez, & Öngel-Erdal, 2005; Gürdal & Yavru, 1998; Hofstein & Lunetta, 1982; Odubunni & Balagun, 1991; Önen, 2005; Cited in: Sadıç, 2016).Güven and Gürdal (2002), in their study examining the effects of experiments on learning in high school physics classes, found that quality science education in educational institutions is possible through conducting experiments in classes. They observed that students who actively engage in experiments during lessons enjoy the classes more and that learning is more enduring. The most distinctive features that set apart science lessons from other subjects are providing opportunities for experimentation, observation, exploration, and the development of cognitive thinking through 602 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal the use of scientific process skills (Taşkın, 2008). Sadıç (2016) mentions that the frequent use of abstract expressions in science lessons often leads to students having difficulty in comprehension. He suggests that making expressions more concrete with appropriate methods and techniques tailored to the lesson can simplify learning. Using the prediction-observationexplanation (POE) method in practical applications of science experiments provides students with the opportunity to apply what they have learned, enabling them to relate scientific knowledge to the natural phenomena they encounter in their daily lives (White & Gunstone, 1992; Cited in: Şahin & Çepni, 2012). In the prediction stage of POE, students are prompted to think about the causes of events, activating their prior knowledge (Şahin & Çepni, 2012). In the observation stage of POE, students are given the opportunity to make observations related to their predictions (Şahin & Çepni, 2012). In the explanation stage of TGA, students are asked to combine their observations with their predictions to provide explanations. This allows the underlying reasons behind students' thoughts to be uncovered (White & Gunstone, 1992; Cited in: Şahin & Çepni, 2012).Studies in science education have shown that hands-on learning through experimentation plays a significant role. Based on research in this field, it has been determined that students encounter difficulties in understanding the concept of pressure. In the literature review regarding the topic of pressure, various instructional approaches have been employed, including the 5E instructional model, STEM model, four-stage diagnostic tests, modeling activities, problem-solving tasks, review strategies supported by constructivist learning approach, prediction-observation-explanation (POE) activities, V diagrams, activities based on scientific argumentation, concept cartoons, and the development of tests aimed at measuring student understanding. Efforts have been made to identify and address students' misconceptions about the topic, their ability to relate it to daily life, their domain knowledge, and the errors they make in problem-solving. Studies in this field also address aspects such as the impact on achievement, attitudes, and higher-order cognitive skills development. Despite numerous studies conducted in the relevant area, it is observed that the problems have not been fully resolved and certain difficulties persist.This study is important in terms of contributing to students' more meaningful and enduring learning of the pressure topic. While outdoor experiments are mostly conducted with preschool students, conducting this study with middle school students is also important in that regard. Unlike previous studies on the topic of pressure, this study opted for an action research method using outdoor experiments. In this study, the difficulties encountered by 8th-grade students in learning the topic of pressure in science lessons have been taken into account. The aim is to address these issues by utilizing outdoor 603 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal experiments to increase students' interest and enthusiasm for the topic of pressure, thereby achieving more effective learning. In this context, the research problem statement is determined as "Does the use of outdoor experiments contribute to alleviating the learning difficulties experienced by 8th-grade students in the topic of pressure?" Sub-problems: 1-Is there a significant difference in the level of learning of the topic of pressure before and after the use of outdoor experiments among male and female students? 2-What are the students' opinions, interests, and enthusiasm regarding conducting experiments on the topic of pressure outdoors? Limitations The study is limited to conducting outdoor experiments on the topic of "3rd Unit: Pressure" within the scope of Science lessons with 9 eighth-grade students at Bozdoğan Halımoru Middle School in Halımoru Village, located in Afyonkarahisar province, during the first semester of the school year. Method The study employs a mixed-methods approach, incorporating both quantitative and qualitative research methods. Specifically, action research, a qualitative research method, is utilized to address the problem of increasing the interest and enthusiasm of 8th-grade students in the topic of pressure in Science lessons through outdoor experiments, aiming to achieve more effective learning. In action research, a group of individuals identifies a problem, takes action to address it, evaluates the effectiveness of their actions, and if the solution is deemed insufficient, they attempt to address the problem again (O’Brien, 2001). In the quantitative part of the study, a 20-item achievement test developed by Özcan, Koca, and Söğüt (2019) was used as both pretest and post-test measures. In the qualitative part of the study, pre- and post-interviews consisting of open-ended questions developed by the researchers, as well as student journals (Appendix-5), were included. Study Group The study group consisted of a total of 12 eighth-grade students enrolled in the 8-A class of Bozdoğan Halımoru Middle School, a state school located in a village in the central district of 604 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Afyonkarahisar province, during the first semester of the 2021-2022 academic year. However, 3 students who could not participate in all the activities were excluded from the study group, resulting in a revised study group of 9 students (n Total = 9). The study was conducted with a single group consisting of 6 female and 3 male students. The study group was selected using an appropriate sampling method, considering the study's structure, and was easily accessible in terms of opportunities, time, money, location, workforce, and other relevant factors. This selection method involved non-random sampling techniques tailored to the research design. Data Collection Tools In this study, a 20-item achievement test developed by Özcan, Koca, and Söğüt (2019) was used as a pre-test and post-test measure for teaching the topic of pressure. Additionally, a semistructured interview form consisting of 5 open-ended questions prepared by the researchers was used for both pre-interviews and post-interviews. Researchers and students also kept journals at the end of the lessons. Data Analysis The validity and reliability of the achievement test used as pre-test and post-test measures were tested using the KR-20 internal consistency analysis. Additionally, due to the sample size (n<30) and non-normal distribution of the data, the Mann-Whitney U Test, a non-parametric analysis method, was preferred to evaluate the data according to gender. Content analysis method was employed for analyzing the qualitative data of the study. The data obtained from semi-structured pre-interview and post-interview forms were analyzed by two separate individuals who are experts in the field. Student journals were interpreted and evaluated at the end of the study. Temporary Plan Draft of the Study: • The purpose, significance, methodology, problems, etc. of the research are determined. • First, students are informed about what will be done in the lesson at a level they can understand. For example, by bringing experiment materials to students and informing them that experiments will be conducted outdoors, attention is drawn to students' interest and curiosity about the study. • A semi-structured open-ended preliminary interview is conducted with students about the topic of pressure. This interview measures students' prior knowledge, preparedness, 605 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal perceptions, and approaches before the study. • A pre-test on the topic of pressure is administered to the students. • An experiment in the outdoor environment is conducted with the POE model, and data are recorded. • A semi-structured open-ended interview is conducted with students regarding the topic of pressure. • Students are administered the post-test on the topic of pressure. • The outdoor experiments focusing on the core topic of pressure are conducted appropriately within six class periods. • The acquired data is recorded. • The data is analyzed by experts in the field, discussed, and the results are interpreted. • At the end of each session, students maintain student diaries while researchers keep researcher diaries. Implementation Before the implementation, a preliminary semi-structured interview was conducted, and a pretest was administered using a validated and reliable pressure achievement test. The activities were conducted in an outdoor environment (within the school garden context) with 9 students, utilizing the POE (Predict, Observe, Explain) method. Six different pressure experiments were carried out within 2 class hours. In the initial stage of the activities, students were provided with necessary preliminary information. Predictions were obtained from each student individually and recorded. 606 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal The experiments were then conducted with the participation of students, and they were asked to interpret their predictions and observations based on the deductions made from their observations. Subsequently, researchers took notes. Necessary explanations were provided to the students within the framework of the activity. The students kept a daily journal. Researchers also kept a journal on each working day. The responses given by the students after the POE study were categorized into themes based on their proximity to each other. (NOT: Due to the melting snow on the day of the experiment, only raised soil and very lightly moistened mud were used in the first experiment with snow and soil.) After the application, a final semi-structured interview was conducted, and the post-test was administered using the validated and reliable pressure achievement test. Findings Pre-test and Post-test Findings In this study, the test developed by Özcan, Koca, and Söğüt (2019) titled 'A Study on Developing a Test to Measure Middle School Students' Understanding of the Concept of Pressure' was used as both the pre-test and post-test.

There is no significant difference between pre-test and post-test scores by gender (p > 0.05); however, it appears that females answered more questions correctly than males in both pre-test and post-test. When comparing the pre-test and post-test scores, it is observed that the number of correct answers in the post-test is higher than in the pre-test. Although significant results were not obtained, there are slightly productive outcomes. Pre-Interview and Post-Interview Findings 1- When asked about pressure, what comes to your mind? 610 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal In the pre-interview, students made definitions by associating pressure with concepts such as force and weight, indicating that they had some misconceptions about the topic, but they were able to indirectly describe pressure even if not directly. In the post-interview, students responded with descriptions such as "leaving a mark with a wheel on the ground, pricking a board with a pin, the pressure of a vertical force acting on a surface, the difference between stepping with one foot and two feet, pressure exerted on a surface, and the pressure exerted on the ground when sitting down." Although not all answers were entirely correct, they were able to describe what pressure is, even if indirectly. Compared to the pre-interview, they provided more accurate responses in the post-interview. 2- When asked about conducting experiments outdoors, what comes to your mind? In the pre-interview, students initially confused outdoor experiments with outdoor pressure and provided answers in that direction. They mentioned experiments that couldn't be done in a classroom setting, outdoor experiments, and weather-related experiments in the schoolyard. In the post-interview, students talked about the experiments they conducted in the schoolyard as part of this study. It is evident from their responses that they now have a better understanding of what outdoor experiments mean, as they began to talk about experiments they conducted in their own backyard or in the schoolyard. They mainly mentioned the balloon experiment. 3- In which topics of science would you like to conduct outdoor experiments? In the pre-interview, students provided answers related to pressure, acid-base reactions, friction, mirrors, and light. They mainly thought about topics covered in the eighth grade. In the postinterview, students gave more diverse responses compared to the pre-interview, mentioning topics such as recycling, movements of the sun-earth-moon system, shadows, sound, climate and weather, locating elements on the periodic table, meiosis-mitosis, speed, and parachute experiments. 4- Have you ever conducted experiments outdoors before? If so, what do you remember? In the pre-interview, students mostly mentioned the vinegar-baking soda experiment and the recycling experiment with bottles that they had done with their teachers before. In the postinterview, students mentioned experiments related to pressure, balloon-spaghetti, recycling for a cat's nest, vinegar-baking soda, angles of sunlight, friction, and parachute experiments. It is evident that students remember what they learned better through conducting experiments. 5- How does conducting experiments outdoors make you feel? In the pre-interview, students confused outdoor experiments with outdoor pressure, but in the post-interview, they mentioned feeling better because they got fresh air, understood 611 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal better, and had fun outside, making them happy. So, it can be understood that there are positive effects. Findings of the pressure concept's TGA experiments conducted in outdoor environments: Experiment 1: “Traces on Snow and Soil” Prediction Stage: What changes might occur on the surface of the soil when you throw the same flat stone vertically onto the ground, first on its side and then upright? (What changes might occur on the surface of the soil when you drop the same water-filled bottle vertically onto the ground, first on its side and then upright?) Student Predictions: “The side with a larger surface area will leave less of a mark because as the surface area increases, the pressure decreases.” “The side with a smaller surface area will sink more, but I don't know why.” “The side with the cap will leave more of a mark because the weight is concentrated there, but I don't know why.” “Since the weights are the same, there won't be any change.” Student Observations: When asked about their observations, the most common responses from students were: "The side with the larger surface area sank less" and "The side with the smaller surface area sank deeper." Comparison of Student Predictions and Observations: “I correctly predicted the outcome of the experiment and its reason.” “I correctly predicted the outcome of the experiment but did not know that it was due to pressure.” “I correctly predicted the outcome of the experiment, but I did not know that pressure changes according to the surface area.” “I thought there would be no change because the weights were the same, but pressure varies according to the surface area.” 612 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Experiment 2: "How Many Cardboard Cups Can You Carry?" Prediction stage: If there are 3 cardboard cups on one side and 17 cardboard cups on the other side, and we step on them with a board placed on top, do you think these cups will carry us? What changes do you expect in the cups? What are your predictions? Student predictions: “Fewer cups will be more crushed and broken.” “Cardboard cups won't carry us, and the cups on both sides will be equally crushed. There won't be any difference in crushing because they are all cardboard cups.” “The cups on the side with more cardboard will gradually crush.” Student observations: When asked about their observations, the most common responses from students were: "The cups on the side with fewer cardboard cups immediately crushed and didn't carry us, but the cups on the side with more cardboard cups didn't crush and carried us." and "On the side with more cups, since the surface area is greater, less pressure was applied, and it carried us." Comparison of Student Predictions and Observations: “I correctly predicted the outcome of the experiment.” “I correctly predicted the outcome of the experiment, but I didn't know that the reason was pressure.” “I correctly predicted the outcome of the experiment, but I didn't know that pressure changes according to surface area.” “I thought there wouldn't be any changes in the experiment, but it turns out that pressure varies according to surface area.” 613 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Experiment 3: "Spaghetti - Balloon" Prediction Stage: Does the number of spaghetti noodles affect the bursting time of the balloon? Prediction stage: There are two setups with one placed on a styrofoam base and the other with 25 spaghetti noodles inserted into styrofoam. There are two identical balloons inflated to the same degree. When you gently press the balloons on these setups sequentially, do you think these balloons will burst? If they burst, which setup do you think the balloon will burst more easily in? Why? What are your predictions? Student predictions: “The balloon will burst more quickly on the side with fewer spaghetti noodles. But I don't know why.” “Increasing the number of spaghetti noodles will increase the surface area, applying less pressure to the balloon and causing it to burst more slowly.” “In the setup with many spaghetti noodles, the balloon will burst more quickly because it is pierced on all sides.” “Both setups will cause the balloons to burst immediately because the spaghetti noodles have sharp ends.” Student observations: When asked about their observations, students mostly responded with: "On the side with more spaghetti noodles, the surface area increased, causing the pressure to decrease and the balloon to burst more slowly." Comparison of student predictions and observations: “My prediction and observation for the experiment matched.” “I correctly predicted the outcome of the experiment but didn't know the reason behind it.” “I thought there would be no difference in the experiment, but it turns out that pressure varies according to surface area.” 614 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Experiment 4: “The Depth-Distance Relationship” Prediction stage: What would be the distance sequence of the water coming out from the points marked A, B, and C on the water bottle when pierced with a thumbtack? Why? What are your predictions? Student predictions: “The water coming out of point C will travel the longest distance, followed by B, and the shortest distance will be from point A because the pressure is higher at the bottom.” “The water coming out of point C will travel the longest distance, followed by B, and the shortest distance will be from point A, but I don't know why.” “The water coming out of point A will travel the longest distance, followed by B, and the shortest distance will be from point C because the pressure is higher at the top.” Student observations: When asked about their observations, the most common responses from students were: "The water from point C travels the longest distance, followed by point B, and the shortest distance is from point A. This is because the pressure is greater at depth." Comparison of student predictions and observations: “My prediction and observation from the experiment matched.” “I correctly predicted the outcome of the experiment but didn't know the reason.1” “I incorrectly predicted the outcome of the experiment; it turns out pressure is directly proportional to depth.” Experiment 5: "Water Depth and Balloon Inflation" 615 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Prediction Stage: What changes do you anticipate in the balloons when one end of the syringe tube, which has a balloon at each end, is immersed in a bucket of water filled with water? What are your predictions? Student Predictions: “The balloon pressed into the water-filled bucket will shrink because there is more pressure at depth.” “The balloon outside will inflate, but I don't know why.” “There won't be any change in the inflation of the balloons because there is air inside them.” “I have no idea, I don't know.” Student Observations: When asked about their observations, the most common response from the students was: "The balloon pressed into the water-filled bucket shrinks because there is more pressure at depth." Comparison of student predictions with observations: “I correctly predicted the outcome of the experiment.” “I correctly predicted the outcome of the experiment but did not know the reason.” “I thought there would be no change in the experiment, but the pressure changes according to the depth of the water. Would you like me to help with anything else?” Experiment 6: “Cherry Juice in the Bottle” 616 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Prediction stage: There is a jar containing some cherry juice with a candle placed inside. When we close the jar with the candle inside so it remains in the jar, what change will occur? What would happen if we light the candle and close the jar so it remains inside? What are your predictions? Student predictions: “When the bottle is closed over the burning candle, the candle inside the bottle may extinguish. I don't have any other ideas.” “The level of cherry juice remains the same, unchanged. I don't have any other ideas.” “I have no idea, I don't know.” Student observations: When asked about their observations, the most common responses from the students were: "When the bottle was closed over the burning candle, the cherry juice rose and filled the bottle." and "The candle inside the bottle extinguished when the air inside ran out." Comparison of student predictions with observations: “I correctly predicted that the candle would extinguish, but I did not know that the cherry juice would rise. This experiment is very interesting and fascinating.” “I incorrectly predicted the outcome; I did not know that the cherry juice would rise. This experiment is very interesting and fascinating.” “I couldn't predict the outcome. The liquid rose inside the bottle when the air inside was consumed by the candle. I didn't know this beforehand. This experiment is very interesting and fascinating.” Findings from Student Journals Upon examining the student journals, it was evident that they were particularly surprised by the lack of crushing even when there were many cardboard cups stacked, as well as by the rising of the cherry juice even though they understood the experiments well and had a lot of fun 617 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal conducting them. They also mentioned feeling a bit chilly due to the cold weather. The majority of students recounted the experiments conducted during the session individually and reflected on the enjoyable time they had. Overall, it can be understood that students comprehended the experiments correctly, and they could be memorable and effective. Discussion and Conclusion In this study, a single-group pretest-posttest design was analyzed and interpreted using the SPSS 25 software package. In this study, due to the sample size being less than 30 and the distribution not being normal, as well as the need to evaluate the data according to gender, the nonparametric analysis method of Mann-Whitney U Test was preferred. As seen in Table 5, there is no significant difference between pre-test and post-test scores according to gender (p > 0.05). However, it appears that girls answered more questions correctly than boys in both pretest and post-test. When comparing the pre-test and post-test, it is observed that there are more correct answers given in the post-test compared to the pre-test. Although significant results were not obtained, some productive outcomes have been achieved. Therefore, it can be said that the study was moderately successful. In interviews conducted with students using five openended questions, it was observed that students were able to express themselves more accurately and logically in the final interview compared to the initial one. The study has yielded positive differences. Students have become familiar with and enjoyed outdoor experiments. It can be said that the study has been productive. Upon reviewing the student journals, it is evident that the experiments have captured the students' interest and attention, and they have learned while having fun. The students have provided positive feedback in their journals. In this study, aimed at addressing the difficulties 8th grade students face in learning the pressure topic in Science class and enhancing their interest and enthusiasm in the subject through outdoor experiments, the study has been partially successful. The absence of significant differences in quantitative data does not necessarily indicate that the study is entirely neutral; small but desired differences can still be observed. Conducting experiments using the POE method in an outdoor environment has proven to be beneficial in learning about pressure. The research has provided answers to its sub-problems. Aşkar (2002) mentions the effectiveness of outdoor activities in the evaluation of preschool education program materials in parallel with this study. The study by Uludağ and Erkan (2020), which examines the impact of a science education program containing activities in out-of-school learning environments on the scientific process skills of 60-72-month-old children, indicates a positive effect on cognitive process skills. The effectiveness of using outdoor environments parallels our study. 618 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal This study could be conducted over a longer period, with the learning environment and materials enriched, and interest and attitude scales could be used to make it more comprehensive. Conducting studies on other topics in outdoor environments could facilitate students' learning. Exploring the topic of pressure in outdoor settings using different methods could also be attempted. It would be beneficial to compare at least two different methods of studying pressure in outdoor environments with at least two groups. In future studies, having a larger number of participants in the study group and conducting the study with both experimental and control groups could provide more reliable and meaningful results. More emphasis should be placed on conducting outdoor activities with middle school students. 619 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INTRODUCTION Positron emission tomography (PET) is a molecular imaging method used in the diagnosis, staging, evaluation of response to treatment, radiotherapy planning and prognosis determination of various malignancies. PET/CT applications, which are created by combining images obtained from computerized tomography (CT) with PET scanners, have become significantly widespread. Its working principle is based on the formation of gamma anhylation photons with an energy of 511 keV. Before the PET scan, radiopharmaceuticals, which are a source of β+ (positron) rays, are given to the body. Radioactive elements 18F (Fluorine) and 68Ga (Gallium) are commonly used. 18 F, which is most commonly used in PET/CT imaging of oncological studies, has a half-life of 109.8 minutes. Glucose metabolism appears to be increased in tumor cells compared to healthy cells. The tumor imaging technique of (18F) labeled Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) is based on this. Thus, using (18F)-FDG, most malignant tumors can be imaged noninvasively by increasing glucose metabolism (Kısaarslan, 2022). The structural formula of (18F)-FDG is written as C6H11O5F18. Maximum effective dose equivalent: 0.11 rem/mCi (0.019 mSv/MBq) (Moltek, 2016).When a substance is subjected to EMR, some parameters that characterize the interaction of photons with the substance need to be determined. The mass attenuation coefficient (μρ) is an important parameter that characterizes the penetration effect of ionizing EMR into the substance. The values of µ ρ are used to derive other EMR interactions parameters namely effective atomic number (Zeff) and electron densities (Nel). Zeff and Nel are impotant coefficients used to determine the EMR penetration of a multielement substance in medical radiation dosimetry. Zeff provide correct information about the substance which exposed to EMR and Zeff values of multi-element substance are used to calculate the absorbed dose for radiotherapy. (Aktas et. al., 2019).A lot of research has been done on the radioprotective effect of chemical substances. Isikli and Oto (2017) calculated some EMR shielding parameters such as mass attenuation coefficient (μρ), effective atomic number (Zeff), electron density (Nel) for different antioxidants. More et al. (2016) investigated the effective atomic number (Zeff), the effective electron densities (Neff), the total atomic crosssection and the total electronic cross-section for some amino acids. Kacal et al., (2017) investigated the μρ, Zeff and Nel of different enzyme inhibitors in the photon energy range from 1 keV up to 100 GeV. Kumar (2016) computed the effective Zeff and Nel of nucleobases in DNA for the total and partial photon interaction processes in the energy range of 1 keV–100 GeV. Sayyed et al., (2017) studied the radioprotective effects of different analgesic and antiinflammatory drugs for total photon interaction in the energy range of 1 keV–100 MeV using 626 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal WinXCom. Oto et al., (2020) investigated the interaction of gamma radiation with drugs used in cholinergic medicationsIn the present research, we calculated some important EMR interaction parameters namely µρ, Zeff, Nel of C6H11FO5. To perform these calculations, the data obtained from WinXCom computer program were used. WinXCom program calculates photon interaction cross-sections and attenuation coefficients for any element, compound or mixture, at energies from 1 keV to 100 GeV (Gerward et al., 2001). MATERIALS AND METHODS The attenuation of EMR passing through a substance could be determined theoretically utulizing WinXCom code. This code is based on the mixture rule (Gerward et al., 2004), 𝜇𝜌 = ∑ 𝑤𝑖 (𝜇𝜌 ) 𝑖 (1) where (μ)i is the mass attenuation coefficient and wi is the fractional weight of the ith constituent element. The mass attenuation coefficient (μρ) is a measure of penetration of EMR for a substance. The obtained μ values were used to computed the effective atomic numbers and electron density of the investigated materials. Effective atomic number (Zeff) is an benefical parameter in determining interaction of EMR with a substance. The effective atomic number (Zeff) for total photon interaction is given by (Manohara et al, 2008): 𝑍𝑒𝑓𝑓 = ∑𝑖 𝑓𝑖 𝐴𝑖 (𝜇⁄𝜌) ∑𝑗 𝑓𝑗 𝑖 𝐴𝑗 𝜇 ( ⁄𝜌) 𝑍𝑗 𝑗 (2) where fi is the mole fraction, Zi is the atomic number, Ai atomic mass and (μ/ρ)i is the mass attenuation coefficient of the ith element in the substance. Electron density, Nel (the number of electrons per unit mass, electron/g) could be derived from (Manohara et al, 2008): 1 𝑁𝑒𝑙 = 𝑁𝐴 𝑍𝑒𝑓𝑓 〈𝐴〉 (3) where <A> is the mean atomic mass of the substance. RESULT AND DISCUSSION In the present work, the mass attenuation coefficients of C6H11FO5 were calculated using WinXCom computer program and the outcomes were presented in Fig.1. 627 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Fig. 1. The mass attenuation coefficients versus gamma energy. There are three energy zones: i) low energy zone (0.001 MeV-0.1 MeV), ii) intermediate energy zone (0.1 MeV-10 MeV), iii) high energy zone (10 MeV and beyond). It has been observed that mass attenuation coefficients have large values in the low energy region, where the probability of photoelectric effect occurring is high. The reason of this result is that the cross section of photoelectric absorbing effect depends on atomic number as Z4-5.It can be seen that in the medium energy region, the values of the mass attenuation coefficients decrease due to the linear dependence between the cross-section of Compton scattering and the atomic number Z. The probability of pair production effect increases in the high energy zone, and since the cross section is proportional to Z2 the mass attenuation coefficient also increases. The effective atomic numbers (Zeff) and the electron densities (Nel) were derived using the mass attenuation coefficients computed from WinXCom computer program. The variations of Zeff and Nel with EMR energy for C6H11FO5 are demonstrated in Figs. 2-3. It can be seen from the drawn figures that the highest values of Zeff and Nel are found at low energies, and the Z4-5 dependence of the photoelectric effect cross-section contributes greatly to the values of Zeff of the examined compound. The lowest Zeff and Nel values are observed at intermediate energies where Compton scattering is dominant. It was observed that as the EMR energy increased towards higher energies, the effective atomic number values also increased. This may be due to the Z2 dependence of pair production. 628 VI.

CONCLUSIONS The current study, the EMR interaction parameters of the compound C6H11FO5 were examined theoretically. μρ values in the energy range of 1 keV – 100 GeV were calculated using the WinXCom computer program. Zeff and eNel parameters of the compound were derived with the use of the values of μρ. It was observed how the radiation interaction parameters of the radiopharmaceutical changed with the energy values. 629 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal IMPROVING THE APPROACH TO SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION OF AUTOMATED CONTROL SYSTEMS USING EXPERIMENTAL-STATIC MODELS. Ph.D Nazila RAGIMOVA Azerbaijan State Oil and Industry University Email:nazila.rahimova@asoiu.edu.az Almammadova MEHRİBAN (ORCID:0000-0001-8324-3697) Ukrainian State University of Railway Transport Email:almamedovamehriban@gmail.com Kamenieva NİNA Email:kamenevanina9@gmail.com ABSTRACT The purpose of the article is to improve the approach to software configuration of automated control systems. The subject of the study is experimental-static models used in this process. The work was carried out using the theory of relations, graphs and matrices. As a result, a universal method for machine synthesis of corresponding models was obtained. The algorithm implemented on its basis allows you to automate the process of configuring control systems for distributed technological objects.The development of modern metallurgical production is accompanied by the intensive introduction of automated process control systems (APCS) in all its areas. A special class of tasks is represented by the automation of centralized control of distributed technological objects (mainly on a territorial basis). Such facilities include both main production units (sinter plants, converter shops, mines, etc.) and industrial energy, telecommunications and transport systems and networks. The latter play an important role in the technological cycle of metallurgical, mining and coke-chemical enterprises [1 – 3].The basis for the functioning of automated process control systems are mathematical models of production facilities and processes. Most modern automated process control systems are based on program logic, which determines the unity of the basic core software (software) of the systems themselves and experimental models for their research. However, complex distributed automation objects of a single series are characterized by different configurations of specific technical solutions. In this regard, it is necessary to adapt the software to a specific technical project, which is a separate stage in the design of the system itself [1, 4].Traditionally, this task is solved using configuration files created in xml, txt, cfg, dll, ini, etc. format. Their direct compilation requires highly qualified designers, incl. certain knowledge and skills in the field of programming. To simplify and speed up this procedure, multiple tools and computer-aided design (CAD) systems have been developed for such files, which are based on experimentalstatic models (ESM) of the corresponding objects [1, 4 – 6].However, a significant drawback of most of these CAD systems is the lack of their unification in relation to heterogeneous process control systems. Another disadvantage is the limitation of the dimensions of the designed objects due to the limited capabilities of the visualization tools for the user interface, the accumulation of analyzed information, etc.The goal of this work is to develop universal methods for synthesizing input ESMs for process control systems of large-dimensional objects on a computer. Keywords: software configuration, automated control system, experimental-static model, machine synthesis, algorithm, distributed technological object. 631 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INTRODUCTION A distributed technological object can be characterized by a set, where A, U and Z are, respectively, subsets of local management and control objects, their functional properties and logical connections between them. This set can be constructed in such a way that each element corresponds to a single element that connects it with the element, as well as a subset that specifies its properties that reproduce its functions. Based on this, each of the subsets of Y defines relations on its other subsets or external sets [7]: A  Z  Z  U U ( аi  А) → ( ! zi,i +1  Z) : аi (zi,i +1 )аi +1  → U  A  F  (  а  А) → (  {u }  U) : а (u ){f } i ij i ij ijl  Z  A  A  where F={fijl} is the set of functions of the element ai, specified by its properties {uij} U. The set F is a characteristic of the dynamic component of the process control system or its test model and is uniquely determined by the set U onto which it is bijectively mapped (F↔U). The relationship in formula (1), which must be embedded in the source code of the application software, connects the input ESM with the system itself. Therefore, the input model may not include the set F. Based on expression (1), the set Y can be uniquely displayed by a connected, mixed and weighted p×q graph for which , where ΔU is an additional subset of the proper properties of vertices vi and edges ej in the graph GY to identify its elements. The correspondence GY↔Y is reproduced in one of the following ways: A V   Z  E U = U G /ΔU  A  E   Z  V U = U G /U   A  V  A  GT p  A  GYTh 1 2 Y  1   Z  V  E Z  V  E U = U G /U U = U G /U   where are the trees of the graph GY; – subsets reproduced by the vertices and trees of the graph GY ( , ), respectively. The relation in formula (2) determines the incidence between the corresponding vertices and edges of the graph GY. Given that graph trees are always limited to vertices, matching is impossible [7]. Linking ESM with application software requires an analytical interpretation of the GY graph. An approach based on the direct use of topological matrices is not acceptable in this case for large-dimensional objects. The solution to this problem was found in the initial formation of 632 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ordinary blocks of a matrix of vector elements, which reproduces both topological and parametric (weight) properties of the graphical model. Such a matrix is called a complex topological matrix (CTM). Blocks are created on the basis of components formed by cuts and adjacent to the reference vertices: . Each component must have structural completeness, which consists of maintaining the integrity of each element when it is reproduced by trees. The developed procedure for forming CFT blocks is as follows [7, 8]: 1. Determining the direction of analysis of the graph GY=(V, E) and numbering its elements in such a way that any of its components, obtained by an arbitrary cut, has a continuous (continuous) end-to-end numbering of vertices and edges. 2. Unification of the powers of sets specified by vectors ( , ), by supplementing them with zero elements to the power of the most powerful vector: 3. Defining a set of ordered subsets of support vertices V'={V't} for partitioning the graph into components as follows: - numbering of t sets is performed in the direction of graph analysis; - each subset must form, according to the principle of contiguity with respect to its elements (vertices), two simple cuts E't and E''t; - provided or supporting vertices are selected in such a way that they enclose the corresponding trees. 4. Determination of cuts E'={e'i} and E''={e''i}, the corresponding elements e'i, e''i of which are adjacent relative to the vertices v'i according to the following principles: - for support vertices of sets with odd numbers, edges e''i, incident to the vertices, are assigned first in the direction of analyzing the graph relative to the support vertices, and edges e'i second; - for support vertices of sets with even numbers - on the contrary, edges e'i are assigned first in the direction of graph analysis relative to the corresponding support vertices, and edges e''i are assigned second. The above rules can be expressed by the following relations f±1, φ1,2±1: f 1 ( E 't , E ' 't ) = f −1 ( E 't , E ' 't ) = (e'i  E 't )  (e' 'i  E ' 't )  v'i V 't  (e'i  E 't )  (v'i V 't ), если t = x (e'i  E 't )  (v'i V 't ), если t = y 11 (V 't ) = 1−1 ( E 't ) =  (e' 'i  E ' 't )  (v'i V 't ), если t = x (e' 'i  E ' 't )  (v'i V 't ), если t = y 21 (V 't ) = 2−1 ( E ' 't ) =  633 VI.

Partitioning the graph into two ordered sets of components {GE'k} and {GE''k}, the elements of which have properties (3). The number k is assigned to them in the order in which the graph is analyzed, starting from one. 6. Compilation of CFT blocks for components GE'u and GE''w, where u and w are even and odd values of index k, respectively: M ктм_k m11k m12k k m k m22 = 21 ... ... k md 1 mdk 2 ... m1kc i = 1, c, p  r ... m2kc j = 1, d , d  r ... ... k e v ... mdck mij = ne , nv , u , u , θ where are topological-parametric vectors; , are the numbers, respectively, of the edges and vertices of the complete CFT, which correspond to the row and column in which the element is located; , – weight parameters for the corresponding element of the edge and vertex (indices χ and ψ determine the numbers of these elements in the weight vectors); θ is a topological property of the corresponding edge and vertex element. The values of the elements are assigned according to the following rule: u1v , если i = 1 + rs h = 0, 1, ...,  c  , u1e , если j = 1 + rh  r   v  e u , если i = 2 + rs u , если j = 2 + r h   , ue =  2 , uv =  2 .......... .......... .......... ... .......... .......... .......... ...   d  e u v , если i = r + rs s = 0, 1, ...,   , u , если j = r + rh  r  r r  Based on formula (5), the minimum dimension of each matrix in formula (4), ensuring coverage of all vector elements for each vertex and edge of the graph, should be r×r: cmin=r, dmin=r. The topological property θ = 0 ±1 is determined by the type of matrices and corresponds to direct or indirect relationships between the elements of the graph. The most obvious way is to use the incidence property. 634 VI.

Functional diagram of machine synthesis of ESM CONCLUSION The proposed method of ESM synthesis has the following advantages: universality of application for process control systems of any distributed objects, ease of implementation from the position of qualified designer (who has sufficient knowledge of the operating technology of the control object and its properties, encoded in the form of weight vectors), the ability to localize spatial areas of the object at different stages design, the ability to form test models only for a certain part of a large object. At the same time, the main disadvantage of the method should be considered the presence of a minimum threshold for the dimension of CFT blocks, which, in the presence of multiple properties in the elements of a technological object, can lead to an excessive size of individual local areas. This drawback can be eliminated by superposition of local and global objects, which can be interpreted by the nested and outer matrices, respectively. The implementation of this approach requires additional research in this direction. 635 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal THE HERMITE-BELL-BASED APOSTOL-BERNOULLI POLYNOMIALS Abstract Recently, Duran et al. (Axioms 2021, 10(1), 29; https://doi.org/10.3390/axioms10010029) considered Bell-based Stirling polynomials of the second kind and derived some useful relations and properties including some summation formulas related to the Bell polynomials and the Stirling numbers of the second kind. Then, they introduced Bell-based Bernoulli polynomials of higher order and investigated multifarious correlations and formulas including some summation formulas and derivative properties. Moreover, the authors attained several interesting formulas of Bell-based Bernoulli polynomials of higher order arising from usual umbral calculus. Then, Hermite-Bell-based Stirling polynomials of the second kind and Hermite-Bell-based Bernoulli polynomials of order α were defined and some of their properties were investigated.Motivated and inspired by the above work, in this study, we consider Hermite-Bell-based Apostol-Stirling polynomials of the second kind and derive some useful relations and properties including some summation formulas related to the Bell polynomials, the Hermite polynomials, and Stirling number of the second kind. Then, we introduce HermiteBell-based Apostol-Bernoulli polynomials of order α and investigate multifarious correlations and formulas including some summation formulas and derivative properties.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction Special polynomials and numbers possess much importance in multifarious areas of sciences, such as physics, mathematics, applied sciences, engineering, and other related research fields covering, differential equations, number theory, functional analysis, quantum mechanics, mathematical analysis, mathematical physics, so on, cf. [1-14] and see also each of the references cited therein. Some of the most significant polynomials in the theory of special polynomials are the Bell, Euler, Bernoulli, Hermite, and Genocchi polynomials. Recently, the aforesaid polynomials and their diverse generalizations have been densely considered and investigated by many physicists and mathematicians, cf. [1-14] and see also the references cited therein.In this study, we consider Hermite-Bell-based Apostol-Stirling polynomials of the second kind and derive some useful relations and properties including some summation formulas related to the Bell polynomials and Stirling number of the second kind. Then, we introduce Hermite-Bell-based Apostol-Bernoulli polynomials of order  and investigate multifarious correlations and formulas including some summation formulas and derivative properties. Also, we acquire diverse implicit summation formulas and a symmetric identity for Hermite-Bell-based Apostol-Bernoulli polynomials of order  . Moreover, we analyze some special cases of the results.Throughout this paper, the familiar symbols C , R , Z , N and N 0 are referred to the set of all complex numbers, the set of all real numbers, the set of all integers, the set of all natural numbers, and the set of all non-negative integers, respectively. The Stirling polynomials S 2 ( n, k : x ) and numbers S2 ( n, k ) of the second kind are given by the following exponential generating functions (cf. [1-3,6-11]): t t  t n ( e − 1) tx t n ( e − 1) S2 ( n, k : x ) = e and S2 ( n, k ) = .  n! k! n! k! n =0 n =0  k k (1.1) In combinatorics, Stirling number of the second kind S2 ( n, k ) counts the number of ways in which distinguishable objects can be partitioned into k indistinguishable subsets when each subset has to contain at least one object. The Stirling numbers of the second kind can also be derived by the following recurrence relation for   N 0 (cf. [2,4,9,14,16]): n x n = S2 ( n, k )( x )k , k =0 where ( x )n = x( x − 1)( x − 2) ( x − ( n − 1)) for nN with ( x )0 = 1 (see [1-3,6-11]). 639 (1.2) VI.

Since the first consideration of the Bell polynomials, these polynomials have been intensely investigated and studied by several mathematicians, cf. [25,8-11] and see also the references cited therein. The usual Bell polynomials and Stirling numbers of the second kind satisfy the following relation n Beln ( y ) = S2 ( n, m ) y m .

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction Throughout this paper, the familiar symbols C , R , Z , N and N 0 are referred to the set of all complex numbers, the set of all real numbers, the set of all integers, the set of all natural numbers and the set of all non-negative integers, respectively. The truncated exponential polynomials en ( x ) are the first ( n + 1) terms of the Mac Laurin series for the function e x (cf. [2-4,6,12]), that is xk . k =0 k! n en ( x ) =  (1.1) This polynomial has the following integral representation: x k ( n − k )! 1   n =  e ( x +  ) d . 0 n! k =0 k!

[24,6,12])  en ( x ) t n = n =0 etx . 1− t (1.3) Using the aforesaid generating function, one can easily get the following derivative relations:  x  d  en +1 = 1 + 1 −   en ( x )  n + 1  dx   (1.4) and en −1 ( x ) = d en ( x ) . dx (1.5) For more detailed information about the truncated exponential polynomials, see [2-4,6,7,12-14] and also the references cited therein. The traditional Pochhammer symbol ( x )n (sometimes called the descending factorial, falling sequential product, falling factorial, or lower factorial) is defined by (see [1,5,8-11])  x( x − 1)( x − 2) 1 ( x )n,1 := ( x )n =  ( x − (n − 1)), n  N . n = 0. (1.6) The  -extension of the usual Pochhammer symbol ( x )n , is given by (see [1,5,8-11])  x( x −  )( x − 2 ) 1 ( x ) n , =  Note that ( x )n ,1 := ( x )n . 653 ( x − (n − 1) ), n  N n = 0.

The degenerate exponential function ex ( t ) is defined by (cf. [1,5,8-11]) x ex ( t ) = (1 + t )  and e1 ( t ) = e ( t ) . (1.10) It is readily seen that lim  →0ex ( t ) = e xt . From (1.10), we obtain the following relation  e ( t ) =  ( x )n, x n =0 tn , n! (1.11) which satisfies the following difference rule   ex ( t ) = tex ( t ) .

In the family of special polynomials, in recent years, the truncated forms for polynomials have been worked on and investigated by various mathematicians cf. [2-9,11-14], and see also the references cited therein. Dattoli et al.

While the truncated exponential polynomials en ( x ) (1.1) are the first ( n + 1) terms of the Mac Laurin series for usual exponential function e x , the truncated degenerate exponential polynomials are introduced as the first ( n + 1) terms of the Mac Laurin series expansion of the degenerate exponential function e ( t ) in (1.11) as follows: Definition 1 The truncated degenerate exponential polynomials (the Detr -exponential polynomials) are introduced as the first ( n + 1) terms of the Taylor series expansion of e ( t ) in (1.11) at t = 0 : n en , ( t ) =  (1)k , k =0 tk . k!

Main Results In this chapter, we define the 2-variable truncated degenerate exponential polynomials of order  and then investigate some of their properties. We now consider the 2-variable truncated degenerate exponential polynomials of order  , therefore we give the following definition. Definition 2 The 2-variable truncated degenerate exponential polynomials of order  are 655 VI.

We now examine a special case of the aforementioned polynomials as follows. Remark 2 When  = 1 , the 2VTD -exponential polynomials en( ,) ( x, y ) (2.1) reduce to the 2 variable truncated degenerate exponential polynomials en , ( x, y ) , which are the new extension of the exponential polynomials in (1.1), given by n en, ( x, y ) =  ( x )n−k , k =0 yk .

Remark 7 When y =  = x = 1 , the 2VTD -exponential polynomials en( ,) ( x, y ) (2.1) reduce to  the degenerate truncated exponential polynomials en , ( t ) in (1.13). Remark 8 When y =  = x = 1 and  → 0 , the 2VTD -exponential polynomials en( ,) ( x, y )  (2.1) reduce to the truncated exponential polynomials en ( t ) in (1.1). The classical generating function of the 2VTD -exponential polynomials is given by the following theorem. Theorem 1 For t <  1 , we have y ex ( t ) en, ( x, y ) t = .  1 − yt  n =0  ( ) (2.6) n Proof.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal We remark that using (2.6), the classical generating function of the polynomials in (2.2), (2.3), (2.4) and (2.5), respectively, can be given as follows: ex ( t ) en , ( x, y ) t = ,  1 − yt n =0  n  en(,) ( x ) t n = n =0  e() (1, y ) t n n, = n =0  en, ( x ) t n = n =0 ex ( t ) , 1 − t e ( t ) , 1 − yt  ex ( t ) . 1− t Theorem 2 The following difference operator rule holds:   ; x en(,) ( x, y ) = en(−1,)  ( x, y ) .

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal SEMANTIC AND FUNCTIONAL CHANGE OF SHOPPING AND FASHION IN THE AGE OF CONSUMER CULTURE Prof. Dr. Celalettin VATANDAŞ* (ORCID: 0000-0003-1431-3553) Tekirdağ Namık Kemal Üniversitesi Fen-Edebiyat Fakültesi Sosyoloji Bölümü, TekirdağTürkiye Email: cvatandas@nku.edu.tr Doç.

Towards the end of the 19th century, when production was prioritised, consumption became the main paradigm, and practices that encourage consumption and create new needs became widespread. The culture industry, which has become dominant thanks to mass media, has prioritised the creation of new needs, and this has led to the formation of a sector called fashion. Fashion, which was previously only in a narrow framework and for those with high socio-economic opportunities, has become a phenomenon that shapes and directs the consumption behaviour of the masses through mass media. The most characteristic feature of fashion, which determines the creation of new needs and the way these needs are met, is change. Change is a value glorified by today's dominant mentality. Clothes, automobiles, houses, mobile phones, white goods, furniture, physical appearance and even people, friendships, values, emotions, beliefs, which are indicators of an individual's tastes and material power, are the objects of change. Therefore, fashion is about everything. In the context of all these, fashion, in the shortest terms, is what is temporary. Something becomes fashionable only for a certain/limited period of time and then quickly becomes obsolete. Essentially, the process of becoming obsolete begins with something becoming fashionable. The idea of obsolescence is what enables something to be fashionable and unfashionable, that is, the rapid change that takes place in this process, in other words, the fashion trend to start the next trend. With this research, the semantic change, formation and functioning of the concept of fashion will be discussed. Keywords: Fashion, Obsolescence, Obsolescence, Consumption. 661 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction Capitalism, culture industry, consumer culture, fashion, advertising... all these are situations and phenomena that have a direct and strong relationship with each other. They have enveloped individual and collective mentalities and all areas of individual and social life. Capitalism represents the most dominant phenomenon among them all. The others fulfil their functions under the influence and control of capitalism in a cause-and-effect relationship or in support of each other. To make a statement on fashion, the subject of this chapter, fashion cannot exist in its present meaning and function without capitalist mentality and practices. The culture industry, which is a sub-element of capitalism, makes use of advertising while creating and popularising fashion. The ultimate goal of all these is the culture of consumption. Consumption culture motivates capitalist mentality and practices. Fashion And Consumption Now we can ask our main question: What is fashion? There is no standard defınition of fashion that is accepted by everyone. Because it can have different defınitions according to its scope and function. For this reason, many defınitions have been made. New defınitions continue to be made. The meaning and function of fashion may differ in different social structures according to the dominant mentality and lifestyles there. For example, socioeconomic status and situations can significantly change the meaning and function attributed to fashion. Similarly, changes in the acceptance and understanding of "consumption" can lead to changes in the meaning and function of fashion. Nevertheless, by taking into account the common features and commonly accepted meanings of the definitions, some determinations can be made about what fashion is, even in a general sense. Fashion, in the most general sense, refers to what is accepted and/or used by a certain group of people at a certain time and in a certain place. For this reason, the definition of style and form in force in dictionaries is meaningful. The determination of the rule that temporarily regulates the use and shapes of ornaments, clothing, furniture, etc. expressed by another definition expresses one of the common views on the scope of fashion. Many more definitions can be expressed based on different dictionaries and encyclopaedias. The origin of the word fashion can be seen as the right starting point to determine the meaning of fashion in order to reach the result in a short way without wandering between definitions. According to the common opinion, the origin of fashion is mod, which is a statistical term. Mode refers to the most repeated number among the numbers in a certain sequence. Therefore, fashion refers to the most repeated thing, the common thing. It is important 662 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal that fashion expresses the state of "prevalence". While a work, behaviour or appearance that is done by a person or a few people in a society and is out of the ordinary may be considered strange, the fact that that thing becomes widespread and is done/adopted by many people can lead to the normalisation of that thing. This situation points to fashion. Of course, there are some important criteria that shape the transformation of something from being considered strange to being liked and widely adopted. Personalities who are respected by the society/mass and therefore are models are the most important tools of this transformation. For this reason, the culture industry, since it is the shortest and easiest way to include a product in the consumption process, first of all produces model personalities or "star" individuals with popular nomenclature, and through these, it puts its products on the consumption market. The product is easily accepted through "stars". There are significant differences between being a person respected by society in the traditional sense and being a "star", which is a phenomenon of modern times. In traditional society, reputation is a requirement of being an exceptional personality that is appreciated and admired by the members of the society in line with the value judgements of the society. For example, a person can be a respected artist of the society with his/her long-standing and outstanding achievements. In the traditional mentality and society, being an artist is a characteristic that is a combination of special talent, great labour and outstanding achievement. Today, however, being a "star" does not require special talent, labour and success. When mass media advertise a person as a "star", it is possible to become a "star". In fact, most of the time, a person with no special talent, labour and achievement can suddenly be remembered as a "musician", "singer", "voice artist", "model", "mannequin" .... However, this in no way means that the "artist" or other titles of that person will have a long-lasting continuity. A person can shine in one moment and fade away in the next. For example, a person chosen by the culture industry can become a "star" with a song and then disappear after fulfilling the functions expected of him/her by the culture industry. As no one knew before, no one remembers him/her after he/she fades out. This "star's" being remembered and continuing his/her "stardom" is related to and limited to what the culture industry expects from him/her. There is a linear relationship between the role of the culture industry in producing "stars" and fashion, which is the most important motivational tool of consumption that capitalism wants to make uninterrupted. Because there is a strong relationship between fashion and being widespread. However, although the fact that something is preferred by many people is important for it to be fashionable, this feature may not be enough to ensure that what is desired 663 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal to be widely consumed is fashionable. An example of this is the torn/worn jeans that are in fashion today. When the blouse was first invented in the USA, it was used by mine workers. The blousins used by the workers and worn out during long periods of hard labour were not considered fashionable in any way. Moreover, despite the fact that they were worn by a large mass of workers. However, as relatively high status groups, especially young people, began to dress more widely, the torn jeans became fashionable. This was done through "star" personalities who were modelled. Through them, young people and even non-young people started to wear torn/worn jeans and this became a widespread consumption behaviour. People could be directed to the desire of owning torn/worn jeans by paying more for them than for the good ones. A similar situation can be said for "old" clothes. In the old times, the torn, worn, partially dismantled clothes that the poor had to wear were not fashionable although they were worn by the poor on a mass level. This condition of those items was a result of unfavourable economic conditions. Today, however, torn, frayed and partially dismantled clothes have become fashionable through role models and individuals with high socio-economic conditions have been made to wear torn and dismantled clothes. Perhaps patched clothes will soon face a similar situation. Of course, if the people or businesses who decide what is fashionable decide to do so.If one of the important references in determining the meaning of fashion is "mod", the other is modus, which means "unformed border" in Latin. Modus contributes to understanding the meaning of fashion as well as its function. As it is known, fashion is something that changes easily and does not remain fixed/the same in any way. In the shortest terms, fashion is something that is temporary. Something becomes fashionab/e only for a certain/limited period of time and then quickly becomes obso/ete. In fact, when something becomes fashionable, the process of becoming obsolete also begins. The idea of obso/escence is what enables a thing to become fashionable and unfashionable, that is, the rapid change that takes place in this process, in other words, the fashion trend to start the next trend. For example, objects physically wear out over time depending on their qualities and usage. This is an expected and familiar situation. However, the traditional mentality and the modern mentality's understanding of obso/escence do not refer to the same meaning. From the point of view of the traditional mentality, the obsolescence of an object is due to the fact that it is physically unable to fulfil its basic function and deteriorates. However, from the point of view of this mentality, the obsolescence of an item does not require that the item be immediately thrown away or considered as "rubbish". The old item can be repaired and used again and again. Understandings that control consumption, such as waste and saving with the limited means available, can contribute to transforming the worn- 664 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal out item and maintaining its functionality, even if it has completed its actual useful life. In this respect, some familiar examples are clothes that are patched and worn, furniture that is repaired and sweaters that are dismantled and put back into use by mopping. It is understandable for elderly individuals with a traditional mentality to continue to keep any item that has lost its function with the understanding that "it will be needed one day". Because from the point of view of this mentality, throwing away items that can be repaired or throwing away objects that have economic value is considered as "rubbish" and is considered as waste. Waste is a behaviour that should be avoided. Therefore, according to this view, every item, even if it is old, has a use value. This is the requirement of the mentality in which consumption is not a value, instead saving is recognised as a value.On the other hand, the meaning attributed to "obsolescence" by the modern mentality, which represents the transition from the old to the new and makes change a fundamental value in this context, is completely different from the meaning attributed by the traditional mentality. In the modern mentality, it is not the case that things lose their physical function, wear out and become unusable. The meaning attributed to obsolescence by the modern mentality is directly related to the course of development of the capitalist mentality. In the early 20th century, as a result of the replacement of the principle of production with the principle of consumption, "spending" rather than "saving" or "preserving" was encouraged, while values such as "frugality" began to be perceived as stinginess. The thrifty, wasteful individuals of the past have been replaced by individuals with the mentality of "I consume, therefore Iexist" and the masses formed by these individuals. Instead of stability, permanence and order, transience and change have become the basic principle. The idea of impermanence and disposability has been developed and reinforced through adverts that manifest themselves at every corner of daily life with calls to bring the old and take the new. Being "disposable" and "discontinuous", which comes with the idea of obsolescence, has become a feature that reveals itself in its full form not only in clothes, household appliances, cars, accessories, furniture and houses, but also in human relations and preferences. The minds are now dominated by a distinction between what is appropriate and inappropriate for the times and conditions. When this idea is engraved in the consciousness with the concepts of "new" and "change", individuals who are motivated by the discourses of infinite freedom of choice can, for a small reason, remove friends, people or relationships that they do not like or that are no longer useful from their agenda and minds, and continue their lives as if they had never happened by opening a new page. As in the Greek philosopher Heraclitus' statement that the 665 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal only thing that does not change is change itself, change/abandonment is at the centre of the mentality of today's individuals and life in today's societies. Fashion And Change Change is a value glorified by today's dominant mentality. Clothes, automobiles, houses, mobile phones, white goods, furniture, physical appearance and even people, friendships, values, emotions, beliefs, which are indicators of the individual's tastes and material power, are objects of change. For today's individual, none of these have the importance and meaning to deserve to stay for a long time. Fashion is an important motivational tool that manages the process. Fashion keeps the desire for change alive through the understanding of obsolescence in a way that can be called continuous. Sociologist Roland Robertson (1938-2022) considered the adoption and spread of fashion as a five-stage process supported by social motivations. These stages consist of the following: 1) The adoption of what will become fashionable by agents, i.e. change leaders, 2) Social visibility and communicability, 3) Harmony within and between social systems, 4) Social cohesion and the market, 5) Becoming obsolete with the emergence of new fashion alternatives. In addition, fashion represents the logic of planned obsolescence. Fashion is not only a necessity for the survival of the capitalist market, but also an important tool for the expansion of capital. Werner Sombart (1863-1941), who analysed the economic dimension of fashion within the capitalist system, defined fashion as the favourite child of capitalism in his work Economy and Fashion (Wirthschaft und Mode) published in 1902. According to him, fashion is a necessity to offer new fields and products to the capitalist market. It is a highly functional mechanism for making profit by making things, ideas, values, lifestyles, attitudes and behaviours, personalities, identities... constantly "obsolete". Within the scope of all these, the main characteristics of the fashion sector can be expressed under fıve headings: Being short-lived: Fashion products are generally short-lived. The life of a fashion product is expressed in weeks or months. Fashion is recognised as a temporary and cyclical phenomenon. For this reason, it is known that the life curve of fashion clothing products is shorter than other 666 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal industries.High variability: The demand trend for fashion products is rarely constant or linear. Fashion products can be affected by seasons, famous people, trends.Lowpredictability: Due to the variability of demand, it is difficult to make sales and demand projections.Highly motivated buying tendency: Most of the purchasing decisions of consumers are made at the point of purchase. When the consumer encounters the product, he/she is encouraged to buy it.Being similarising: Today, although the fashion industry is multidimensional, multicultural, multicoloured and multivocal, as a result of globalisation, clothing and fashion culture has evolved into a similar structure among countries. In this respect, brands such as Zara, Berschka, Pull&Bear, H&M, Stradivarius, Mango, Vero Moda, TopShop, Koton and Batik function as actors of similarity of appearance.Attitudes and behaviours, preferences and tendencies that can be considered within the scope of fashion have been one of the unchanging features of social life. In all societies, senior executives and the people around them, especially family members, members of the socio- economically high class, and especially women have had different and variable preferences from the majority of the society. Fashion is a sociological phenomenon related to power holders and rich people before the 19th century. In the first quarter of the 20th century, it gained a mass character with a form and scope unprecedented in history. Class fashion has been replaced by consumer fashion. Instead of a single type of fashion determined by the upper classes, a fashion understanding that tends to include all layers of society has emerged. In the 20th century, developments in mass communication technologies led fashion to become widespread and prestigious in a way never seen in any period of history. In the 20th century, the phenomenon of dressing has covered the whole social life in a way that goes beyond culture and has become a part of the material and spiritual dimension of consumer culture. Through mass media, it has become an element that mobilises social change as well as a mirror of social life. However, in addition to fashion shows, fashion blogs and fashion magazines, other channels that are as effective as them have emerged in the dissemination of fashion. One of these channels is fashion magazines. In addition, the internet and social media platforms have assumed important functions in terms of the opportunity to spread fashion trends rapidly and to deliver visual images to wider audiences. Fashion influencers and celebrities who are effective on platforms such as Instagram, YouTube and TikTok popularise a certain body type, clothing style and beauty standards in a short time and have a strong influence on their followers to adopt these idealised images. 667 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Scope of Fashion The most basic expression of fashion is recognised as clothing, dress and ornamentation. Clothes are the most classic and basic product of fashion. Being a manifestation of people's personality and character, clothes are an observable form of behaviour. However, although clothes are the most visible form of fashion, fashion is a broader phenomenon. It is related to many different material and non-material contexts. The most important tool and even lever of fashion is advertising. Every day people are bombarded by visual advertisements that encourage them to buy certain products or services, which in turn creates and popularises fashion. However, these images also function as factors that influence attitudes, values, beliefs and behaviour. Fashion is inherently related to material contexts (furniture, architecture and automobiles, etc.) as well as non-material contexts (child-rearing techniques, art appreciation, etc.). In essence, fashion is not only concerned with the appearance of a person's body, but also with their behaviour, thoughts, feelings, emotions, knowledge, speech, agenda, interests... in short, the way they present themselves. For example, making personality analyses based on horoscopes, using slang words or gesticulating while speaking under the influence of some TV series and films can be things that are encountered as fashion elements. In this respect, the words of the famous fashion designer Coco Chanel (1883-1971) are important in terms of expressing the scope of fashion: Fashion is not something that exists only in clothes, fashion is something in the air we breathe. It is a wind, you feel it coming, you smell it. Fashion is about ideas, lifestyles, what is happening. The basis of fashion culture is capitalism, which is driven by an unlimited and irresponsible drive for material profit. The rulers of the capitalist mentality, who deliberately declare the contents of existing wardrobes obsolete and outdated, have succeeded in turning people into slaves dependent on themselves through fashion; they have first and foremost influenced young people and women. Nowadays, even young people who do not have enough money for a bagel to fill their bellies consider following fashion as an indispensable condition and try to follow fashion as much as possible. Young people with no economic means walk around hungry, they feel cold because they have no clothes to protect themselves from the cold, but they try to have something fashionable; sometimes it is perfume, sometimes it is a branded clothing, and lately most of the time it is a mobile phone. Because it is through these that the young person feels his/her existence and makes his/her peers feel it. The modern mentality and lifestyle has placed the human being as the "subject" at the centre of the "God-centred" existence and lifestyle of the previous, traditional period. This subject, on 668 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal the other hand, manifests the things constructed and characterised by the culture industry in all the units of the system at the centre of which it sits. For this reason, the mass society and its individuals value fragmentation instead of unity and harmony, pleasure and desire instead of reason. In addition, modernity prefers not the sacred but the profane embodied in itself. In this respect, while entering into a conflict with the sacred, it also presents itself as a taboo. This presentation manifests itself most clearly in fashion rituals. For example, the fact that fashion shows are presented in a ritual/ritual atmosphere, that fashion provides its followers with a belonging with transcendental references, that the members of this belonging display the appearance of a "faith community", that they think, dress and live in the same style... points to fashion's effort to create a sacred space around itself. Through fashion, the profane is given a sacred spirit and appearance. For this reason, Barnard's definition that fashionable clothing and clothing items are the most fetishproductsproducedandconsumedin capitalist society is very meaningful. According to Andrew Greeley, an American clergyman, it is enough to visit any car fair today to watch a religious ritual. When one goes to the place where automobiles are exhibited, it will be seen that fashion presenters are treated as people with immunity like clergymen, and the products are treated as aesthetically and ethically indisputable taboos. Conclusion In addition to all these, the following should also be stated: The planned rapid obsolescence of consumer goods through fashion provides capitalist capital with billions of dollars every year. This makes capitalism always strong and effective. It is possible to clearly see how this process works in the individuals of the consumer society who see consumption as the only way of expressing themselves and use the brands they use instead of their identity. It would be misleading to see this as merely a situation that enables consumers to prefer the products they need. This operates through an idea/value that is embedded in the consciousness of consumers in their human relations and perspectives on life, and is reflected in their behaviour. The philosophy of carpe diem, which invites individuals to cut their ties with the past, not to take the future into account and to turn towards the present moment, and to enjoy the moment, drags consumers to further stages and contributes to the establishment of the disposable logic from products to human relations, from nature to working life. 669 VI.

These places have become places where the heart of urban life beats with their multifaceted functionality such as shopping, entertainment, eating and drinking, worshipping, doing sports, leisure time, watching movies in the cinema, spending time with friends, spending the weekend with the family, window shopping, socialising, following fashion with their units such as shops, cinema, bank, restaurant, patisserie, cafeteria, hairdresser, pharmacy, place of worship, entertainment or sports venue, playground. With these multifaceted functions, they appeal to all segments of the society from the highest income level to the lowest income level and attract everyone's attention. In this respect, they are micro spaces of daily life. With this research, the meaning and functions of shopping centres, which represent the last stage of the change process of shopping spaces, in the context of consumption culture will be discussed and evaluations will be made regarding the process.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction The Industrial Revolution has an important place in the formation of the modern mentality and lifestyle, to put it in terms of shaping the process, disregarding the philosophical and scientific heritage of several centuries. The Industrial Revolution, which led to many changes in people's mentality and in their individual and social lives, and the urban life that accelerated and intensified thanks to it, significantly changed the production-consumption relations and caused these relations to be reflected in other areas of individual and social life, rather than being limited to the economic fıeld as before. Changes in working life, the emergence of the traffıc problem, new meanings attributed to consumption, the emergence of the concept of "leisure time" and proposals and initiatives regarding its content, the search for alternative spaces for the needs shaped by the new mentality and lifestyle... have been the determinants of radical changes and innovations in the course of humanity. Emergence of Shopping Centres Before the Industrial Revolution, among the places where people's shopping activities were shaped, the agora of Ancient Greece, the market area of the Middle Ages or the city squares are important in terms of the functions they fulfil. In addition to being places where commercial activities were carried out and shopping was carried out to meet needs, they were also places where political or cultural activities were carried out and where individuals socialised extensively. They were the heart of social life. In fact, this situation has never completely ended, and especially city squares, with their increasingly narrower and shallower functions, have maintained their features inherited from history until today, albeit in a diminishing form. However, with the Industrial Revolution, the first signs of change began to be seen in the primary space of production-consumption relations. In the fırst stage, department stores, which can be considered as the pioneers of shopping centres, started to be seen. These stores fulfilled important functions for a while as places where comfortable shopping could be done, where the products offered for sale were offered to the consumer under favourable conditions and exhibited to encourage consumption. The growth of cities, the increase and intensification of the population, the emergence of the traffic problem, the emergence of the concept of leisure time in general and holidays in particular due to the regulations in working life, the emergence of the need to engage in as many activities as possible in limited free time... all these have led to the inadequacy of city centres and the search for alternative spaces has emerged. Although the spaces that were the product of these searches responded to the needs, albeit with difficulty, 672 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal until the 1950s, this was not found sufficient. Victor Gruen (1903-1980) was the planner of the first shopping centre with its present form and function in the United States based on the existing problems and demands. According to him, there was a need for a place of escape for people who were overwhelmed by the traffic problem and the boredom of daily life. Due to the fact that the city centres had lost their functions to a great extent with the division of life and spatial construction into different activity areas in cities, he thought that there was a need for places where new social activities were concentrated and designed the first shopping mall. In 1954, he designed the first suburban open-air shopping facility called Northland Mall. In addition to shops, it was designed as a complex of apartment blocks, schools and health facilities, with its own large park and lake. This complex was never completed, but the idea of this complex space design was original. Victor Gruen continued to design new spaces with some additions and subtractions. The second mall Gruen designed was the Southdale Shopping Centre in Minnesota. He designed it as an enclosed space for both vendors and consumers, where social activities were carried out together, going beyond mere shopping activities. Others followed. By the mid-1970s he had designed more than fifty shopping centres in the USA. Each space was planned in more detail than the previous ones. Thus, he reached the shopping centre design that brings together the functions that the busy and complex lifestyle of today's modern city makes individuals feel the need or desired to feel in their daily lives under a single homogeneous roof. Structural Features of Shopping Centres As of today, shopping malls, which have become centres of attraction with their many elements, are living centres that host many of the activities that individuals and masses need or feel the need for. These places have become places where the heart of urban life beats with their multifaceted functionality such as shopping, entertainment, eating and drinking, worshipping, doing sports, leisure time, watching movies in the cinema, spending time with friends, spending the weekend with the family, window shopping, socialising, following fashion with their units such as shops, cinema, bank, restaurant, patisserie, cafeteria, hairdresser, pharmacy, place of worship, entertainment or sports venue, playground. With these multifaceted functions, they appeal to all segments of the society from the highest income level to the lowest income level and attract everyone's attention. In this respect, they are micro spaces of daily life. The main factor that is often unrecognised in the functioning of shopping malls is the phenomenon of leisure time, which is a product of the Industrial Revolution. Whileproduction 673 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal and work were at the forefront in the early days of the Industrial Revolution, leisure time based on consumption was built as an important living space in the following period. Following the Industrial Revolution, working time and rest time were completely separated from each other as two separate living spaces. However, in traditional life, working life and rest time were intertwined; there was no such separation. With this separation, the social structure based on production and work was replaced by a new social structure based on consumption and leisure time. Capitalism, which is the subject of the process, while reshaping production and consumption through its own paradigm, has designed that individuals who use their time for production should also have private time for consumption. Non-working time, which is created through regulations on working life, is designed as a fıeld of activity based on consumption. For this reason, leisure time activities have been commodifıed and functioned as a tool of hegemonic planning rather than being seen as a time to spend leisure time resting. Consumption became the main activity of the process. In this respect, thanks to the institution of leisure time built under the conditions of the Industrial Revolution, consumption has ceased to be a means of sustaining life and has become an end in itself. This has functioned as an important means of dominating the understanding that people should live to consume rather than consume to live. Today, the act of shopping and consumption has social and symbolic contents such as having fun, leisure time, acquiring status, achieving an idealised lifestyle and obtaining prestige. In terms of the modern mentality, consumption has emphasised the meanings attributed to products rather than their properties and functions, and in some cases even completely. The "mass society", which is constructed with the help of mass media and is open to all kinds of manipulation, and whose sociality is questionable in every respect, has been transformed into a society of consumption. The consumer society, which is constructed with the desires of large companies engaged in mass production and through the advertising-fashion tools of mass media, gains meaning as the name of an extremely shallow and largely formal structure compared to the natural/real social structure. This structure is a structure whose main function is to consume, where not only consumption commodities but also identities, spaces, lifestyles, cultural elements, images, meanings, values, time and almost everything else are perceived as objects of consumption. Consumption has ceased to be the result of an act of shopping to satisfy mostly physiological needs and has become a phenomenon that is supported and directed through fashion and advertisements in line with the aims of the capitalist economy, and in which 674 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal consumed objects are used as identity and status indicators. Both the constructor and the supporter of this phenomenon is the capitalist mentality. Just as every society has a culture, a culture has been invented for the consumption society, and unlimited consumption tendencies to obtain the symbols dressed in consumption objects, and the lifestyle shaped around consumption behaviours that diversify every day have formed the basis of this culture. The modern urban individual has become the ideal type of consumption society and consumption culture. This individual consumes in order to have the sense of identity offered to him/her and to live according to who he/she wants to be perceived as. Consumption culture is a necessity of not seeing consumption activity only as the consumption of commodities. Consumption culture refers to a mentality and lifestyle related to the purpose and manner of obtaining the commodities consumed, the way they are used and the norms and value system emerging in this process. The use of an object because of its ability to satisfy a need and being found valuable in this respect is a very normal and routine feature in terms of human behaviour. Here, the subject is the human and the object is the product consumed. However, consumer culture gains meaning as the name of a situation that disrupts this hierarchy. In this case, people become objectified and things become subjectifıed. Karl Marx's (1818-1883) conceptualisations of alienation and fetishism are important as one of the first to recognise this situation. Another social scientist György Lukacs (1885-1971) made a similar evaluation while reaching the concept of reification through what Marx expressed with alienation and fetishism. Whatever the conceptualisations expressing the subversion of the hierarchy in question, what is expressed expresses the differentiation of the connection that should be in the relationship between man and things. In other words, while the thing produced for use becomes the basic reference of a system of values, the human being, who should be the subject, becomes objectified and ordinary. However, the thing that becomes subjective in consumer culture is essentially the thing produced by human beings for human beings. To give an example of how this happens; when a person sees a state-of-the-art technological product, if he starts to see that technological product as a value in itself, as a basic reference that will increase his own value if he owns it, rather than the feature related to the function of that product, this is a problematic relationship and corresponds to the culture of consumption. In Marx's conceptualisation, the person in this situation becomes "alienated" from his/her own essence/humanity, and the object that enables this alienation gains the quality of a fetish. In the same way, the fact that money, which is an intermediary in the purchase of commodities, 675 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal becomes a measure of value is shaped according to the functioning of the process envisaged by the consumption culture. At this stage, it is meaningful that Ivan Illich (1926-2002) defines consumer society as a type of society in which life is organised around commodities and social progress is measured by the power of access to these commodities, or Zygmunt Bauman considers consumer culture as a type of society in which the exchange value of commodities disappears and the function of commodities as indicators comes to the fore instead of their utility function. Consumption Culture and Shopping Centres For the modern and therefore urban individual, being different from everyone else, and demonstrating this difference with his appearance, especially in terms of clothing and attire, eating and drinking places, the tools and equipment he uses, and the social environment he is in contact with, constitutes one of the targeted goals of the idealised lifestyle. He strives to be different from those around him with the visible brand name of his clothing, the neighbourhood of his residence, the brand and model of his car, the country and region he goes on holiday, the popularity of the food he eats, the subjects he is interested in, his circle of "friends", the way he speaks... This situation leads to an endless struggle to be recognisable, and all their efforts are shaped on the axis of being different and staying different. As a result of the increased accessibility of consumption commodities and the tendency to spread to all segments of the society, the current situation of the socioeconomically upper segments has become questionable, which has necessitated the continuous reconstruction of differentiation tendencies through fashion, which triggers and accelerates being different. The widespread access to all kinds of clothes as a stage of this situation has pushed the privileged segments who tend to be different to expose themselves with a nudity in which only the genitals are covered, or to exhibit behaviours that reveal their differences through appearing in such art activities. The paradox of differentiation and sameness leads to an endless consumption motivation. In this respect, shopping malls function as spaces of the capitalist commodity system cycle that both segregates and replicates.As places where an ostentatious lifestyle is embodied in all its dimensions in accordance with the requirements of the consumption culture, shopping malls make life easier for the members of the consumption culture by offering all the products required by ostentatious symbolic consumption as well as products that will meet all the needs that can be considered as compulsory such as food and clothing. Offering a wide variety of products in different stores that meet all kinds of needs together allows people to shop in accordance with their lifestyles, 676 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal identities and status. Special security personnel, devices and inspections create a safe environment and provide protection from external factors that may harm individuals. People have the understanding and confidence that they breathe in a highly controlled and disciplined life during their stay there. In shopping centres, it is clear where to enter and exit and what to do. These are dictated to individuals in the form of unwritten rules. In these places where individuals stay as long as they can, showcases create a visual space that they cannot break away from. The perception that the individual can spend his whole life if he wants is successfully dictated. There is something for everyone. People's interests, feelings of pleasure and desires are constantly provoked. In addition to these, the fact that shopping malls offer colourful brands and different lives causes people to be psychologically affected; shopping malls function as a means to get away from external problems. Individuals numb their problems or take a break by visiting the colourful showcases in the shopping malls. In shopping centres, there is virtually "nothing to find", all stores and "needs" are waiting for their customers in magical boxes. Shopping Centres and Religious Rituals The fact that shopping malls have become a centre of attraction of consumption that constantly renews itself and does not lose anything from its attractiveness in this respect has been possible thanks to planning carried out in a highly rational manner. Among the objective, emotional and functional elements that make shopping malls the centres of attraction of consumption culture, the fact that they are gigantic and easily accessible places, their eye- catching showcases that stimulate feelings of need, the fact that they are offered with opportunities to meet many different needs at the same time, and the use of credit card shopping facilities that facilitate spending and transfer payments to the future are important attraction features. In a sense, the roads in shopping centres, which have the appearance and function of a micro city, constantly direct people to the stores depending on the architectural tricks that highlight the showcases of the stores and present them to the attention of the consumer. The arrangement of the space is realised in such a way that the individual will increase the time he/she will spend in the shopping mall and thus, he/she will feel the need by seeing what he/she does not need. The internal flow in the space is realised through labyrinth-like circulation areas, enabling consumers to encounter the maximum number of products and shopping opportunities. The escalators, which are located in the same direction but not end-to-end and used for vertical connection, are planned to allow people to walk around and thus see more stores. What is more important and 677 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal interesting is that consumption is not directly presented in these spaces. Entertaining activities and shows are attached before and next to the consumption activity, and campaigns presented as special opportunities successfully fulfil the functions of directing consumption. Shopping in shopping centres is no longer just an act of purchasing. Entertainment, aesthetics, image and belonging have become effective elements of purchasing. With the addition of entertainment to the meaning of shopping, the distinction between shopping and entertainment has almost disappeared. Thus, consumption is transformed into an act of pleasure, a recreational activity. With the establishment of shopping centres, shopping has become an effective element of purchases such as entertainment, aesthetics, image and belonging. With the addition of entertainment to the meaning of shopping, the distinction between shopping and entertainment has almost disappeared.A lifestyle is offered to individuals in shopping centres. This is a lifestyle envisaged by capitalism and designed by the culture industry. The masses are directed towards the modern mentality and lifestyle through these places, the relations and transactions in these places. These spaces of production-consumption relations, which seem to put the human being at the centre, but where the intellectuals and representatives of the consumer culture are the subjects and the masses are the objects, are places where rationalism, hedonism, change, individualism, materialism, secularism... appear in accordance with the requirements of modernity. With these characteristics, they are concrete and functional examples of modernity's function of being an "anti-religion religion". Modernity, which is built on anti-religion (Catholicism/Church) and presents itself as a religion in many respects by taking its "enemy" as a model, transforms itself into a "religion of science" in educational institutions, a "religion of pleasure/entertainment" in daily life, or a belief/religion system of "sexuality", "violence", "physical power" ... in different places and environments. In this respect, Ivan Illich was one of the first and important figures to draw attention to the functions of shopping centres outside the production-consumption relationship. While defining the consumer society as a type of society in which life is organised around commodities and social progress is measured by the ability to access these commodities, he emphasised the "slavery of consumption", although the implication of "religion" is also quite strong in this determination. The American sociologist George Ritzer, on the other hand, used the term "religion" directly. As Ritzer expressed in his book Enchanting the Disenchanted World, shopping centres are the "cathedrals" of the "religion of consumption". He had no difficulty in finding traces of the forms and worship of the Abrahamic religions (Judaism- Christianity-Islam) in shopping centres. He likened shopping centres to places of pilgrimage. To extend his metaphor a bit; shopping malls function as the 678 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal place of worship of the modern/secular individual. In the standardised rituals here, it is possible to find traces of the weekly prayers and pilgrimages of the three Abrahamic religions. Individuals who are believers of the religion of consumption have a feeling of spiritual emptiness if they do not visit the shopping centre one day a week, similar to the worship of Jews on Saturday, Christians on Sunday and Muslims on Friday. Due to the conditions of working life, this is usually at the weekend. This situation is important in terms of giving the shopping centre "visit" the form of weekly worship. However, the similarity in question is by no means due to the fact that the visit in question is made once a week, but due to the meaning and function attributed to that "visit". The modern/secular individual, who is restless when he/she does not perform his/her "weekly worshipM, returns home after his/her "worship" in a state of "peace of mind". The relationship of the modern individual with shopping centres is also reminiscent of the pilgrimage rituals of the three Abrahamic religions. In the pilgrimage worship of all three religions, there are rituals such as walking around (tawaf) the object/place of pilgrimage (e.g. the Kaaba), venerating a certain building or object in the centre of the pilgrimage site with respect and love (contemplation/zikr), anointing the building or object in the centre of the pilgrimage site (Hajar al-Aswad) .... The modern individual also walks around the shops in shopping centres, which are the "cathedrals" of the "religion of consumption", admires the shop windows/items (reverence), anoints the objects (touching them, trying them on...) and leaves the place in a "purified" way. Conclusion Shopping centres are the magical places of today. It represents an association in which "magic", which is thrown out of life due to rationality and secularism, the basic principle of modernism, is also activated where necessary. Those who look into its "eyes" fall under its influence and follow it unconsciously. For this reason, George Ritzer (b.1940) likened being in places of consumption such as shopping malls to the situation of a child who imagines himself in a place where everything is made of sugar and can easily reach those candies, and emphasised the fascinating aspect of shopping malls. However, there is also a negative side to this; just like the spooky things, ghosts and witches in the child's imaginary space, there are things in this space that have the potential to turn beautiful dreams into nightmares. These are personal impossibilities that exceed the means and power of purchase and therefore can only be watched, which in turn leads to the destruction of the integrity of the psyche. This castle of dreams, where 679 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal almost every product and service of the world of consumption can be accessed, represents the realm of nightmares with its unaffordability as well as its accessibility. 680 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal AN EVALUATION ON DETERMINING COMMON SUCCESS FACTORS OF HIGHPERFORMANCE INSURANCE AGENCIES Abstract The main purpose of this study is to make an assessment of what the common critical success characteristics of high-performance insurance agencies might be. In many countries of the world, the insurance sector is implemented within the limits legally determined by the state. All processes, from the establishment of insurance companies to their liquidation, from the distribution of insurance products to damage transactions, are determined by laws, regulations, tariffs and instructions, circulars and implementation communiqués. Although all business and transactions of insurance agencies, from their establishment to their liquidation, are legally defined and cover equal conditions for all insurance agencies, how come some of the insurance agencies can be very successful, while others can be on the verge of bankruptcy? Where do the difference(s) arise? In this context, the main research question is “What are the common critical success factors of high-performance insurance agencies and how will they be in the future?” It was determined as. In the study, empirical and theoretical secondary data in the literature were used by using qualitative research method. The common characteristics of successful insurance agencies were examined according to the results of selected research on the subject in the relevant literature, conducted in the world and in Turkey. According to the results of the study, common factors that distinguish successful insurance agencies from others in the insurance industry have been identified. Among these common factors, it has been determined that factors also known as AMO (Ability, Motivation and Opportunity) theory play an important role in the human resources management practices of insurance agencies. In other words, it has been found that insurance agency employees play a critical role in the success of the insurance agency when they have the necessary skills, are sufficiently motivated and have the opportunity to participate in their work atmosphere, and perform well.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Bu çalışma yüksek performanslı sigorta acentelerinin ortak kritik başarı faktörlerinin neler olabileceğine odaklanmıştır. Diğer bütün şirketlerde olduğu gibi sigorta şirketlerinin de başarısının temelini oluşturan faktörler her şirket için farklılık arz etmektedir. Bir başka ifadeyle her şirketin tüm alanlarında ve faaliyetlerinde başarısını garantileyen ortak bir başarı kriterleri seti mevcut değildir. Her şirketin faaliyet göstermiş olduğu alanlarda geçerli olabilecek performans göstergeleri farklı olabilir. Şirketler önceden belirlenmiş olan bu performans kriterlerine göre faaliyetlerini sürdürürken ortaya koyacakları çaba onların başarı veya başarısızlıklarını belirleyecektir. Bu sebeplerden dolayı ortak kritik başarı faktörleri hakkında genelleme yapmak çok zordur. Şimdiye kadar yapılan araştırma ve çalışmalarda kritik başarı faktörlerini analiz etme ve tanımlama girişimlerinde, her bir alanın spesifik özellikleri, örneğin, üretim ve hizmetler, faaliyette bulunulan sektör, pazar ve bu pazardaki rekabet ilişkileri son kullanıcıların gereksinimleri ve tercihleri, teknolojik başarı ve başarısızlıklar gibi bir çok etken ve unsurun belirleyici rol oynadığı tespit edilmiştir (Selimović, 2020). Diğer yandan her ne kadar günümüze değin yapılan araştırmalarda ortak başarı faktörleri belirlenmiş olsa da covid 19 pandemisi ve sonrasında yaşanan gelişmeler daha önceden tespit edilmiş ortak kritik başarı faktörlerinin değişmiş olabileceği varsayımını da gündeme getirmektedir. Çünkü pandemi ile birlikte tüm sektörler de olduğu gibi sigortacılıkta da iş yapma biçimleri değişmekle birlikte acentelerin o dönemde (covid-19) ayakta kalma stratejileri henüz tam olarak akademik çalışmalara yeterince yansımamıştır. Bu sebeplerden ötürü günümüzde yüksek performanslı sigorta acentelerinin ortak kritik başarı faktörlerinin neler olabileceğinin belirlenmesi ayrı bir önem kazanmaktadır. Zira, böyle bir çalışma hali hazırda sigorta acenteleri için bir kılavuz görevi görmesinin yanında onların daha uzun süre hayatta kalmalarına zemin hazırlayabilecektir. Bilindiği üzere, günümüzde sigorta sektöründe faaliyette bulunan tüm aktör ve paydaşların her türlü süreç ve faaliyetleri devletin kontrolü ve müdahalesi altındadır. Bir başka ifadeyle sigorta şirketleri ve sigorta acentelerinin kuruluşundan, tasfiyesine kadar, sigorta ürünlerinin üretilip dağıtımından risk gerçekleşmesi sonucu hasar işlemlerine kadar tüm süreçler kanun, yönetmelik, tarife ve talimatlar, genel şartlar, genelgeler ve uygulama tebliğleri ile belirlenmektedir. Hal böyle olunca, söz konusu mevzuat ve düzenlemeler tüm sigorta acenteleri için eşit koşulları kapsamasına rağmen nasıl oluyor da sigorta acentelerinin bazıları çok başarılı olabilirken, bazıları ise iflasın eşiğine gelebilmektedir? Aradaki fark/farklar nerelerden kaynaklanmaktadır? Bu belirlenmiş olan araştırma sorusu çerçevesinde şimdiye kadar yapılan çalışmalara göre, yüksek performanslı sigorta acentelerinin ortak kritik başarı 684 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal faktörleri ve günümüzde ve gelecekte de geçerli olabilecek nitelikteki faktörlerin değerlendirilmesi, çalışmanın temel içeriğini oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmada, nitel araştırma yöntemi ile kavramsal ve teorik incelemeler yapılmıştır. Sistematik ve kapsamlı bir literatür araştırması ile ampirik ve teorik ikincil verilerden yararlanılmıştır. İlgili literatürde dünyada ve Türkiye’de yapılmış konuyla ilgili seçilmiş araştırma sonuçlarına göre başarılı sigorta acentelerinin ortak özellikleri incelenmiştir. Ayrıca yönetim ve danışmanlık firmalarının, sektörlerin geleceğine yönelik hazırlamış oldukları raporlardan yararlanılarak bugün ve gelecekte sözkonusu ortak başarı faktörlerine hangilerinin eklenebileceği konusundan çıkarımlar yapılmaya çalışılmıştır. Çalışmada elde edilen sonuçlara göre, yüksek performanslı sigorta acentelerinin ortak olabilecek özelliklerine yönelik bir değerlendirme yapılmıştır. Buna göre, acentelerin mevcut insan kaynakları yapısı, yetenekleri, bilgi düzeyleri, faaliyet bölgelerindeki fırsatları görme ve değerlendirme kabiliyetleri ön plana çıkmıştır. Yapılan tespitlerde günümüzde insan kaynakları yönetim uygulamalarında AMO (Ability-MotivationOpportunity/Yetenek, Motivasyon ve Fırsat) teorisi olarak da bilinen faktörlerin sigorta acentelerinin yüksek performanslı olmalarında en önemli unsurlardan biri olduğu tespit edilmiştir. 2.Çalışma Alanı 2.1.Sigorta, Sigorta Şirketleri ve Sigorta Acenteleri Bilindiği üzere, sigorta sektöründe faaliyette bulunan şirketler, olası risklerin gerçekleşmesi sonucu meydana gelebilecek ekonomik kayıpların telafi edilmesinde önemli rol oynayan kurumlardır. Sigorta şirketleri gerek kendileri gerekse sigorta aracıları üzerinden müşterilerine sigorta sözleşmesi (Poliçe) düzenleyip satarak prim geliri elde ederler. Toplanan bu primlerle büyük fonlar oluşturulmakta ve riskler gerçekleştiğinde meydana gelen ekonomik kayıplar poliçe şartları gereğince hak sahiplerine ödenmektedir. Risk yönetim tekniklerinden biri olan sigortacılık dünyanın birçok ülkesinde devletin yasal olarak belirlemiş olduğu sınırlar çerçevesinde uygulanmaktadır. Sigorta hizmetleri, sigorta endüstrisi için ayırt edici olan diğer bazı hizmetlerin yanı sıra, herhangi bir hizmetin tipik özelliklerine sahiptir. Aslında sigorta hizmeti, sigortalı kişinin potansiyelin sigorta şirketine duyduğu güvene dayanmaktadır (Selimović, 2020). Sigorta, birey veya kurumların ileride meydana gelebilecek (sözleşme süresi içinde) muhtemel çeşitli risklerin neden olabileceği ekonomik kayıpların karşılanmasını sağlayan bir sistemdir (Dalkılıç, 2010; Gupta, 2011; Rejda, 2005). Bu sistemde, riski bir prim karşılığında üzerine alan tarafa “sigortacı”, belli bir prim karşılığında riski sigortacıya devreden tarafa “sigortalı veya sigorta ettiren”, sigortacı ile sigortalı/sigorta ettiren arasında yapılan 685 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal anlaşmanın yazılı haline ise “sigorta poliçesi” denilmektedir (Cesur, 2023). Bu sistemde sigorta şirketleri poliçeleri isterlerse kendileri direkt olarak müşterilere satabilecekleri gibi çeşitli sigorta aracıları vasıtasıyla da satabilmektedirler. Bu aracılardan biri de sigorta acenteleridir. Sigorta şirketlerinin nam ve hesabına sigorta poliçelerinin hazırlanması ve satışına aracılık eden “Sigorta acenteleri” sigorta sözleşmelerinin hazırlanması ve satışını belli bir komisyon karşılığında yapan gerçek veya tüzel kişilerdir (Cesur, 2023).Günümüzde tüm sektörlerde oyunun kurallarının değiştiği söylenebilir. Özellikle covid-19 pandemisi ve sonrasındaki yaşanan değişimler diğer alanlarda olduğu gibi, sigortacılık sektöründe de önemli değişimlerin yaşanmasına neden olmakta ve bu değişim halen tüm hızıyla devam etmektedir. Pandemi öncesi ve sonrası olarak bakıldığında başta müşteriler olmak üzere, pazarlardaki tüm paydaşların istek ve beklentileri, iş yapma yöntem ve usülleri gibi şirketlerin başarı performanslarını etkileyecek gelişmeler yaşanmaktadır. “Artık hiçbir şey eskisi gibi olmayacak” şeklinde klişeleşmiş bir deyim olan bu ifade neredeyse tam da bu durumu özetlemektedir. 2.2.Kritik Başarı Faktörleri Kavramı Kritik başarı faktörleri kavramı ilk olarak 20. yüzyılın ikinci yarısında yazılan makalelerde tanımlanmış ve “birey, departman veya organizasyon için tatmin edici sonuçların başarılı rekabet performansını garanti edeceği sınırlı sayıda alan” olarak tanımlanmıştır (Selimović, 2020). Kritik başarı faktörleri, işin gelişmesi ve yöneticinin hedeflerine ulaşması için işlerin yolunda gitmesi gereken birkaç temel alandan biridir. Boynton ve Zmud (1984) kritik başarı faktörlerinin “önemli/yüksek performansın elde edilmesini sağlayacak şekilde özel ve sürekli ilgiyi hak eden yönetsel veya organizasyonel faktörler” olduğunu belirtmektedir. Bunlar, mevcut faaliyetlerin başarısının yanı sıra gelecekte de başarıya ulaşmanın önemli temelidir. Diğer bir ifadeyle bu faktörler bir kuruluşun başarılı olabilmesi için odaklanması gereken faktörlerdir. Sanvido ve ark. (1992) kritik başarı faktörlerini “başarıyı gösteren hedeflere ulaşmak ve yönetmek için işin kritik/kaçınılmaz olarak tanımlanan yönleri” olarak tanımlamaktadır. Selimoviç (2020) bu faktörlerin genellikle üretim süreçleri, çalışanların organizasyonel ve kişisel becerileri gibi alanlarda bulunduğunu ileri sürmektedir. 2.3.AMO Yaklaşımı AMO yaklaşımı (Ability-Motivation-Opportunity/Yetenek, Motivasyon ve Fırsat), yüksek performanslı insan kaynakları yönetimi için “bir firmanın sürdürülebilir rekabet avantajı elde etmesini sağlamak için çalışanların becerilerini, motivasyonunu ve katılımını teşvik etmek için tasarlanmış bir İKY uygulamaları paketi” olarak açıklanmaktadır (Kremmydas ve Austen, 2020). Bu yaklaşım modeli çalışan performansını belirleyen değişkenleri temel almaktadır. 686 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Konuyla ilgili çalışma yapan araştırmacılar, yetenek, motivasyon ve fırsatın birbiriyle ilişkili olduğu ileri sürülmektedirler (Blumberg ve Pringle, 1982). AMO modelinin kökenleri, endüstriyel psikoloji perspektifinden gelmektedir (Beltrán-Martín ve Bou-Llusar, 2018; Kremmydas ve Austen, 2020; Lawshe, 1945). Bu modele göre, yetenek (A-Ability) ve performansın aynı zamanda çalışan motivasyonuna (M-Motivation) bağlı olduğu ve fırsatların (O-Opportunity) bu yüksek performansın ortaya çıkarılmasında önemli olduğu vurgulanmaktadır (Beltrán-Martín ve Bou-Llusar, 2018; Kremmydas ve Austen, 2020). AMO yaklaşımının, “A” boyutu, çalışanların işlerini yürütme yeteneklerini ifade ettiği, yani, bireysel çalışanların sahip olduğu bilgi, beceri ve yetenekler olarak tanımlandığını ve çalışanların değerlendirmesi olarak ifade edilen mesleki öz-yeterlik yapısıyla yakından bağlantılı olduğu vurgulanmaktadır. “M” boyutunun ise çalışanların işyerinde çaba harcama istekliliğini yansıtan bir dizi çalışan tutumunu ve etkisini yani motivasyonunu içerdiğini bir başka ifadeyle “davranışı yönlendiren, harekete geçiren ve sürdüren gözlemlenemeyen bir güç” olduğu ifade edilmektedir. AMO yaklaşımının, “O” boyutunun ise “çalışanların yeteneklerinin ve çabalarının sonuçlara dönüştürülebileceği araçları yansıttığını” belirtilmektedir (Beltrán-Martín ve diğ., 2017; Kremmydas ve Austen, 2020). Sonuç olarak AMO yaklaşımı, “A” bileşeninin çalışanların katkıda bulunma yeteneklerini, “M” bileşeninin bu yetenekleri ne ölçüde kullanmaya istekli olduklarını ve “O” bileşenin de bireysel düzeydeki fırsat boyutu, genel anlamda becerilerini işlerinde kullanma ve firmanın başarısına katkıda bulunma şanslarını yansıtan özerkliği, görevin önemini ve çalışanların işte algıladıkları etkiyi içerdiğini ifade etmektedir (Beltrán-Martín ve Bou-Llusar, 2018; Kremmydas ve Austen, 2020). 2.4.Sigortacılıkta Kritik Başarı Faktörleri Farokhain ve Sadeghi, (2011) de çalışmalarında günümüze kadar sigortacının başarısının kritik faktörleri arasında sunulan hizmetin kalitesi, müşterilerin memnuniyet derecesi ve müşterilerin sadakatinin yer aldığını, ancak, günümüzde pazardaki tüm değişiklikler dikkate alındığında yakın gelecekte sadakatin yerini, sunulan hizmetin müşteriye uygun olup olmadığına ilişkin değerlendirmelerin yer alacağını iddia etmektedir. Zealley ve diğ., (2018) da sigorta şirketlerinin önemli kritik başarı faktörleri olarak, motive edilmiş nitelikli insan gücü, beceriler, bilgi ve kaynaklar olduğunu belirtmiştir. Kulkarni, (2015) çalışmasında “her pazarlama faaliyetinin müşteriyle başlayıp ve müşteriyle bittiğini” belirterek, müşterilerin bir pazarlamacı için nihai hedef olduğunu vurgulamıştır. Bir şirketin pazarlama çabalarının başarısının, dağıtım ağına hakimiyetine bağlı olduğunu belirten yazar, pazarlama kanallarının, bir ürün veya hizmetin kullanıma veya tüketime hazır hale getirilmesi sürecine katılan birbirine bağlı 687 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal kuruluşlar kümesi olduğunu ileri sürmüştür. Yazar çalışmasında telekomünikasyon ve bilgisayar teknolojisindeki gelişmelerin, hizmet sunumunda birçok yeni yaklaşımı teşvik etttiğini sigorta sektörünün de bundan yakından etkilendiğini, sigorta şirketlerinden müşterilere uzanan dağıtım kanalındaki sigorta acentelerinin kendilerini yenileyerek yeni başarı ölçütlerine sahip olmaları gerektiğini savunmuştur.Akpınar (2018) çalışmasında sigorta sektöründe MİY’in önemli konuma gelmesiyle birlikte şirketlerin müşterileri hakkında daha fazla bilgiye ihtiyaçları olduğunu ve müşterilerini iyi tanıyan ve müşterilerini iyi analiz eden şirketlerin MİY uygulamalarında da oldukça başarılı olacakları ifade etmiştir. Bunun yeni ekonomide işletmelerin rekabet avantajı sağlayacağı ideal bir yönetim yaklaşımı olduğunu açıklayan yazar, günümüz koşullarında müşterilerini tanıyan, onlara özel kişiselleştirilmiş ürün veya hizmet sunabilen, onları bir değer olarak işletmenin merkezine koyan ve süreçlerini bu doğrultuda oluşturan sigorta şirketleri müşterileri için daha fazla değer sunarak sadakat yaratmakta ve uzun dönemli karlılık elde edecekleri vurgulamaktadır. KPMG’nin raporuna (2019) göre, Insurtech’in sigorta sektöründe yenilikleri tetikleyerek, çevrimiçi sigortanın hızlı gelişimini sağladığı vurgulanmaktdır. Diğer yandan yaşanan bu değişimlerle fiyatlandırma ve sigortalamadan dağıtım ve hak taleplerine kadar çeşitli iş süreçlerinde yeni uygulamalar gelişmekte ve sektörün yenilikçi yeteneklerinin yeni boyutlara ulaşmakta olduğu ifade edilmektedir. Bu durumda sigorta acentelerinin de yeni teknikleri benimseyerek, kendi performanslarını arttırmaları için yeni kapıların açıldığı ifade edilmektedir.Kaesler ve diğ., (2020) çalışmalarında, covid-19 pandemisinin, birçok sektörlerde ve coğrafyalarda insanların birbirleriyle etkileşimini derinden etkilediğini belirterek, sigortacılıkta birçok işlemin dijital ve uzaktan kanallara kaydığını ifade etmişlerdir. Yazarlar çalışmalarında günümüzde sigorta acentelerin, eskisinden farklı yeni yol ve yöntemler bulmasının zorunluluğuna dikkat çekmiştir. Yazarlar çalışmalarında Nisan 2020’de Alman sigorta acenteleri arasında yapılan (tecritten dört hafta sonra gerçekleştirilen) bir anket sonuçlarına göre, sigorta acentelerinin yaklaşık yarısının yeni işlerde yüzde 40’tan fazla düşüş yaşadığını, Mayıs 2020’de ABD bir grup sigorta acenteleri arasında yapılan bir ankete göre de benzer bir etkilerin çıktığını ifade etmişlerdir. Yapılan araştırmaya göre, acentelerin neredeyse yüzde 50’si, uzaktan yeni müşteri ilişkileri kurmanın covid-19 sırasındaki en büyük zorluk olduğunu belirtmişlerdir. Yazarlar çalışmalarında önceden yüksek performans gösteren sigorta acentelerinin pandemi sonrasında işlerinin azalmasına işaret ederek, yeni normalde farklı başarı kriterlerinin ortaya çıktığını belirtmişlerdir.Selimović, (2020) çalışmasında, sigorta şirketinin performansını etkileyen unsurları araştırmıştır. Yazar çalışmasında, sigorta şirketinin büyüklüğü, geleneği ve imajı, yani 688 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal itibarı, pazardaki konumu ve başarısı, yönetimin kalitesi ve yeteneği, modern yönetim yöntemlerinin kullanımı, değişim yönetimi, bilgi yönetimi ve risk yönetimini tanıtma ihtiyacının şirketin performansını yakından etkilediğini belirtmiştir. Yazar ayrıca, çalışmasında, satış gücünün özellikleri, yani motivasyonları özelleştirme ve müşteri odaklı süreçlere yani süreç kişiselleştirme ve iyi iletişim odaklı olarak sunulan hizmetlerin kalitesi, sayısı ve farklılığı gibi özelliklerin de şirket performansı için önemli olduğunu açıklamıştır. Bu bağlamda sigorta şirketlerinin kritik başarı faktörleri olarak, müşterilerin ihtiyaç duyduğu hizmetin sağlanması için gerekli olan tüm faktörlerin, yani şirketin finansal performansıyla ölçülebilen başarısını etkileyebilecek tüm değişkenler olduğunu tespit etmiştir. Śmietanka ve diğ., (2021) çalışmalarında, günümüzde yaşanmakta olan dijital değişimlerin, sigortacılıkta yapay zeka tabanlı analizlerin, sigorta şirketlerinin sigorta ürünlerini kişiselleştirmelerine ve mevcut müşterilerin ihtiyaçlarına daha iyi yanıt vermelerine olanak tanıdığını belirtmişlerdir. Yazarlar çalışmalarında sigorta şirketlerinin yeni işler yapmalarına yardımcı olacağını ileri sürerek, sigorta sektöründe makine öğrenimi tekniklerinden yararlanmanın fırsatlarını açıklamışlardır. Yazarlar çalışmalarında yaşanacak bu teknolijik yenilikler ile sigorta acentelerinin de müşteri çekme ve elde tutma konusunda etkili stratejiler geliştirmelerinin önemine değinmişlerdir. Bunun için de yeni dönemde yeni normal için yeni performans yeteneklerinin kazanılması gerektiğini savunmuşlardır.Svoboda (2021) çalışmasında, pandemi ve sonrasında gündeme gelen dijitalleşme ile birlikte, özellikle de hizmet sektöründe büyük değişiklikler ve geçişlerle birlikte çevrimiçi satın alma ve işlemlerin, dijital platformlar aracılığıyla yapılamaya başlandığını vurgulamıştır. Yazar çalışmasında temel bulgu olarak, sigorta acenteleri için böyle bir duruma kendilerini dijital süreçlere adapte etmelerinin rakiplerine göre farklar oluşturacağını ileri sürmektedir. Ayrıca yazar çalışmasında araştırmasının sonuçlarına göre, pandemi sonrasında oluşan yeni normalde sigorta acentelerinin farklı ekosistemlerde faaliyet göstermek zorunda olacaklarından dolayı diğer acenteler ile ortaklıklar kurmaya odaklanmalarını, acentelerin ekip olarak çalışmaya teşvik edilmelerinin ve hibrit veya çok kanallı bir dağıtım modeli oluşturmaları durumunda yüksek performanslı konuma geçebileceklerini ifade etmektedir.HBW Leads ekibinden kıdemli bir satış temsilcisi olan Bondaug-Win (2021), başarılı sigorta acentelerinin sahip olduğu on alışkanlığı, nasıl çalıştıklarını ve bunları profesyonel yaşamda nasıl uygulanabileği konusunda şunları belirtmektedir: 689 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Günlük Rutin Oluşturulması: Günlük bir rutine sahip olmak, başarılı sigorta acentelerinin zamanlarını yönetmelerine ve fırsatlar ortaya çıktığında esnek olmalarına olanak tanıyan bir yapı sağlar. İyi Bir Satış Temsilcisi: Birçok sigorta acentesi her şeyi kendi başına halletme alışkanlığını edinir. Oysa başarılı sigorta acenteleri görevlerinin çoğunu asistanlara ve meslektaşlarına devretmektedir. Stres Yönetimi: Sağlıklı stres yönetimi başarılı sigorta acenteleri için önemli bir alışkanlıktır. İhtiyaçlarına uygun bir iş-yaşam dengesi geliştirmeye çalışmak, “Çalışma” saatleri ile “ev” saatlerinin ayrılması gibi. Hedefleri Belirleyin ve Takip Edin: Kişisel, profesyonel ve ekip hedeflerini belirlemek, büyümeye yardımcı olacak değerlendirme araçları oluşturmak, acente performansını önemli oranda artırabilecektir. Başarılı İnsanlarla İletişim İçinde Olmak: Başarılı acenteler ister kişisel olarak ister sosyal medyadan takip ettiğiniz kişiler olsun, hep çevrsindeki başarılı kişileri takip ederler. Başarılı acenteler başarılı meslektaşlarıyla güçlü ilişkiler kurarlar. Tavsiye ve Rehberlik: Bazı acenteler için rehberlik istemek yenilgiyi kabul etmek anlamına gelmektedir. Esasen bu yanlış bir düşüncedir. Her Yerde İlişkiler Kurmaya Özen Göstermek: Bir sigorta acentesi olarak ağ kurmak yalnızca konferanslara ve çalıştaylara gitmek ve diğer sigorta acenteleriyle konuşmaktan ibaret değildir. Öğrenmeye Devam Etmek: Neredeyse her kaynağın parmaklarınızın ucunda olduğu bir zamanda, kendi eğitiminize yatırım yapmaya devam etmek önemlidir. Sosyal Becerilere İnce Ayar Yapılması: İletişim, problem çözme, organizasyon ve eleştirel düşünme gibi sosyal becerilerinizi yeniden gözden geçirin. Bir takımda çalışıyorsanız iletişim ve problem çözme egzersizleri yapma fırsatı olabilir. Teknolojiyi Kucaklamak: Başarılı sigorta acentelerini ve diğer uzmanları takip ederek rutinlerine hangi araç ve yazılımları uyguladıklarını öğrenin. Sizin için anlamlı olanları benimseyin. Kalıpların dışında düşünün ve diğer sektörleri ve kullandıkları yazılımları inceleyin. Cesur (2023) çalışmasında, sigorta acenteleri üzerinde yapmış olduğu saha araştırmalarından elde edilen verileri tematik analiz yöntemiyle değerlendirerek, sigorta acentelerinin hayatta kalma becerilerini belirlemeye çalışmıştır. Yazar, çalışmasında yüksek performanslı en başarılı sigorta acentelerinin ortak özelliklerinin, acente-şirket arası ilişkiler, adaptasyon, bilgi düzeyi 690 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ve paylaşımı, sorun çözme kabiliyeti, müşteri memnuniyeti ve kanıksanmışlık olarak açıklamıştır. Cesur, çalışmasında başarılı ve uzun ömürlü sigorta acentelerinin ortak özelliklerinden en göze çarpanlarının ise sorun çözme kabiliyetine sahip, değişimlere hızlı cevap verebilen, sürekli kendilerini geliştiren nitelikli kadroların işin başında olduğu acenteleri işaret etmiştir. Uluslararası Sigorta Denetçileri Birliği tarafından yayınlanan direktiflere göre (Insurance Authority, 2024). Sigorta acenlerinin yasalara uygun bir şekilde faaliyet gösterebilmeleri için aşağıda belirlenmiş olan kriterlere dikkat etmelerini önermişlerdir. Bir anlamda yetkili bir sigorta acentelerinin ortak başarı kriterleri olarak tanımlanabilecek bu faktörler şunlardır: • Yetkili bir sigorta acentesi, dürüst, etik ve doğrulukla hareket etmelidir. • Müşterilerine her zaman adil davranmalı ve onların çıkarlarına en uygun şekilde hareket etmelidir. • Özen, beceri ve titizlikle hareket etmelidir. • Uygun düzeyde mesleki bilgi ve deneyime sahip olmalı ve yalnızca acentenin gerekli yetkinliğe sahip olduğu düzenlenmiş faaliyetleri yürütmelidir. • Müşterilere bilinçli kararlar verebilmeleri için doğru ve yeterli bilgi sağlamalıdır. • Düzenlenmiş tavsiyesi, müşterinin koşulları dikkate alınarak müşteriye uygun olmalıdır. • Çıkar çatışmalarını önlemek için en iyi çabayı göstermeli ve bu tür çatışmalar önlenemediğinde, acente, müşterilere her zaman adil davranılmasını sağlamak için bunları uygun açıklamalarla yönetmelidir. • Acente tarafından alınan veya acentenin mülkiyetinde olan müşteri varlıklarını korumak için yeterli güvenlik önlemlerine sahip olmalıdır. Accenture tarafından hazırlanan rapora (2024) göre, yüksek performanslı sigorta acentelerinin yapması gereken iş ve eylemler şu şekilde sıralanmıştır: • Yeni nesil sigorta müşterilerinin değişen davranış ve beklentilerine uyum sağlamak. • Zorlu pazar ortamında müşterileri elde tutmaya odaklanmak. • Çapraz satış ve üst satış yaparak müşterilerin “Gümüş” ten “Platin” e yükseltmek. • Temsilcileri yeni müşteri türüne uygun hale getirmeye odaklanmak. • Temsilcilerin uygun pazar segmentine odaklanmasını sağlamak. • Yaşlanan müşteri popülasyonu için bir geçiş stratejisi geliştirmek. • Hedef pazarlara ilişkin bilgi edinmek. 691 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal • Müşterileri doğru kanallara yönlendirmek. • Müşterileri doğru ürünlere yönlendirmek. • Temsilcileri doğru ürün için, doğru pazardaki doğru müşteriye yönlendirmek. Slayton Search Partners’in (2024) hazırlamış olduğu rapora göre, sigorta sektöründe dijital dönüşüm, sigortacı ve müşteri çıkarlarının birleşmesi için yeni fırsatlar sunmaktadır. Sigorta şirketleri, araç telematik cihazları, kondisyon takip cihazları, elektrokardiyogram (EKG) monitörleri gibi yeni veri toplama araçlarından da yararlanarak poliçelerini hazırlayıp uygulamaya koyabilmektedirler. 3.Materyal ve Yöntem Çalışmada, nitel araştırma yöntemi ile kavramsal ve teorik incelemeler yapılmıştır. Nitel veri analizi, dilsel (veya görsel) materyalin araştırmanın amacı doğrultusunda yorumlanması ve sınıflandırılmasıdır (Flick, 2022; Kara, 2015). Yazar araştırmasında sistematik ve kapsamlı bir literatür araştırması ile ampirik ve teorik ikincil verilerden yararlanılmıştır. Bilindiği üzere, literatür taraması belirli amaçları gerçekleştirmek veya konunun doğası ve nasıl ele alınması gerektiği hakkında belirli görüşleri ifade etmek için belirli bir bakış açısıyla yazılmış bilgi, fikir, veri ve kanıt içeren, konuyla ilgili mevcut belgelerin seçimi, incelenmesi ve bu belgelerin önerilen araştırmayla ilişkili olarak etkin bir şekilde değerlendirilmesi sürecidir (Bowen 2009; Kara, 2015). Araştırmacı çalışmanın amacı doğrultusunda ilgili literatürde dünyada ve Türkiye’de yapılmış konuyla ilgili seçilmiş araştırma sonuçlarına göre başarılı sigorta acentelerinin ortak özellikleri incelemiştir. Ayrıca yönetim ve danışmanlık firmalarının sektörlerin geleceğine yönelik hazırlamış oldukları raporlardan yararlanılarak bugün ve gelecekte sözkonusu ortak başarı faktörlerine hangilerinin eklenebileceği konusudan çıkarımlar yapmaya çalışılmıştır. Bilindiği üzere ikincil verilerin analizi, birincil verilerin analizi kadar yaratıcı olabilir ve araştırmacının analitik hayal gücünün akıllıca kullanılmasını destekleyerek sonuçlara ulaşmasını sağlayabilir (James 2012; Kara, 2015). 4.Bulgular ve Tartışma Çalışmanın kavramsal çerçevesinde de belirtildiği üzere, sigorta acentelerinin esas yaptıkları iş, faaliyet bölgelerinde sigorta şirketlerinin nam ve hesabına sigorta poliçelerin tanıtımı, pazarlanması ve satışı ile ilgili çalışmalar yapmaktır. Yani bir tür hizmet pazarlamasına ait iş ve işlemleri yürütmektedir. Bu acentelerin bir kısmı faaliyet bölgelerinde başarılı olup yüksek cirolar ve satış komisyon gelirleri elde ederken, diğerleri ise benzer başarıyı göstermekten 692 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yoksun kalmaktadırlar. Bu aradaki farkların hangi faktörlerden kaynaklandığının araştırıldığı bu çalışmada cevabını aradığımız temel araştırma sorularından biri “yüksek performanslı sigorta acentelerinin ortak kritik başarı faktörleri nelerdir?” şeklinde belirlenmiştir. Bir diğer araştırma sorusu ise bugün ve geleceğe yönelik, yani “bundan sonra yüksek performanslı sigorta acentelerinin ortak kritik başarı faktörleri neler olacaktır?” şeklinde belirlenmiştir. Yapılan inceleme ve araştırmalardan elde edilen tespitler Tablo 1’de yer almaktadır. Yine çalışmanın kavramsal çervesinde belirtildiği üzere belirlenmiş olan bu sözkonusu kritik başarı faktörlerinin tüm sigorta acenteleri için mutlak geçerli olacağını ileri sürmek mümkün değildir. Zira her acentenin içinde bulunduğu faaliyet bölgesi, kendi iç yapısı, çalışanlarının ve müşterilerinin demografik, ekonomik ve sosyolojik özellikleri gibi birçok farklılıklar söz konusudur. Elde edilen bulguların bu çerçevede değerlendirilmesi önem arz etmektedir. 693 VI.

Dağıtım ağına, telekomünikasyon ve bilgisayar teknolojisindeki gelişmelere hakim olmak. Beceriler, bilgi ve kaynaklar, nitelikli ve motive edilmiş insan gücü. MİY uygulamalarına özen göstermek, müşterilerini iyi analiz etmek, müşterilerine kişiselleştirilmiş ürün veya hizmet sunabilmek, sadık müşteri oluşturmak. Insurtech, yapay zeka ve yeni teknikleri benimsemek, personelin dijital becerilerle donatılması, yenilikçi yeteneklerin şirkete kazandırılması. Dijital ve uzaktan çalışma kanallara adapte olmak, eskisinden farklı yeni yol ve yöntemler bulmak, dijital becerilere sahip personele sahip olmak. Şirketinin büyüklüğü, geleneği ve imajı, itibarı, pazardaki konumu ve başarısı, yönetimin kalitesi ve yeteneği, modern yönetim yöntemlerinin kullanımı, değişim yönetimi, bilgi yönetimi ve risk yönetimini tanıtma, satış gücünün özellikleri, yani motivasyonları özelleştirme ve müşteri odaklı süreçlere yani süreç kişiselleştirme ve iyi iletişim odaklı olarak sunulan hizmetlerin kalitesi, sayısı ve farklılığı. Yapay zeka ve makine öğrenimi tekniklerinden yararlanmak, müşteri çekme ve elde tutma konusunda etkili stratejiler geliştirmek, çalışanlara yeni normal için yeni performans yetenekleri kazandırmak. Dijital süreçlere adapte olmak, diğer acenteler ile ortaklıklar kurmaya odaklanmak, acentelerin ekip olarak çalışmaya teşvik edilmesi ve hibrit veya çok kanallı bir dağıtım modeli oluşturmalarını sağlamak. Acentelerde günlük rutinlerin oluşturulması, iyi bir satış temsilcisi/temsilcilerine sahip olması, stres yönetimi ve uygulamalarına hakim olması, hedeflerin belirlenmesi ve takip edilmesi, acente sahibini ve çalışanlarının başarılı insanlarla iletişim içinde olması, müşteriye tavsiye ve rehberlik konusunda destek ve kılavuz olmak, acente sahibi ve çalışanlarının her yerde sosyal ve iş ilişkileri kurmaya özen göstermesi, acentede görevli herkesin öğrenmeye ve kendini geliştirmesine devam etmesi, sosyal becerilere sahip olmak, acentedeki tüm çalışanların Insurtech gibi teknolojilere hakim olması. Acente-şirket arası ilişkilere özen göstermek, adaptasyon konusunda acente sahibi ve çalışanlarının her türlü yasal, teknolojik, ekonomik ve sosyal değişimlere hızlı ve etkili uyum sağlaması, bilgi düzeyi ve paylaşımı konusunda duyarlı olmak, karşılaşılan sorunlar karşısında hızlı ve etkili sorun çözme kabiliyetine sahip olmak, müşteri memnuniyetine azami ve sürekli olarak özen göstermek ve müşteriler nezdinde işini iyi yapan bir acente olarak kanıksanmış olmak. Yetkili bir sigorta acentesi, dürüst, etik ve doğrulukla hareket etmelidir. Müşterilerine her zaman adil davranmalı ve onların çıkarlarına en uygun şekilde hareket etmelidir. Özen, beceri ve titizlikle hareket etmelidir. Uygun düzeyde mesleki bilgi ve deneyime sahip olmalı ve yalnızca acentenin gerekli yetkinliğe sahip olduğu düzenlenmiş faaliyetleri yürütmelidir. Müşterilere bilinçli kararlar verebilmeleri için doğru ve yeterli bilgi sağlamalıdır. Düzenlenmiş tavsiyesi, müşterinin koşulları dikkate alınarak müşteriye uygun olmalıdır. Çıkar çatışmalarını önlemek için en iyi çabayı göstermeli ve bu tür çatışmalar önlenemediğinde, acente, müşterilere her zaman adil davranılmasını sağlamak için bunları uygun açıklamalarla yönetmelidir. Acente tarafından alınan veya acentenin mülkiyetinde olan müşteri varlıklarını korumak için yeterli güvenlik önlemlerine sahip olmalıdır. Yeni nesil sigorta müşterilerinin değişen davranış ve beklentilerine uyum sağlamak. Zorlu pazar ortamında müşterileri elde tutmaya odaklanmak. Çapraz satış ve üst satış yaparak müşterilerin “Gümüş”ten “Platin”e yükseltmek. Temsilcileri yeni müşteri türüne uygun hale getirmeye odaklanmak.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 5.Sonuçlar Araştırmadan elde edilen bulgulara göre, yüksek performanslı sigorta acentelerinin müşterileri anlamak konusunda hünerli olduklarını söylemek pek yanlış olmayacaktır. Başarılı sigorta acentelerinin müşterilerden hangilerinden en büyük karı elde edeceğini, hangilerinin üst ve çapraz satışa uygun olduğunu, bu müşterilerin hangilerinin en sadık ve hangilerinin en büyük kaçış riskiyle karşı karşıya olduğunu anlamakta yetenekli oldukları ön plana çıkmıştır. Bir başka ifadeyle, sigortacı, bir müşterinin elde tutulup tutulmayacağına, buna değer olup olmadığını ve en değerli müşterileri kazanmak ve elde tutmak için nasıl bir yol izleyeceğini konusunda bilgi ve yetenek sahibidir.Elde edilen bir diğer bulgu ise, yüksek performanslı sigorta acentelerinin doğru pazarları hedefleyerek kendi performansları üzerinde pozitif bir etki yapacak şekilde çalışmalarıdır. Bir başka ifade ile bu sigorta acenteleri bu tür belirli müşterilere ve segmentlere göre uyarlanmış büyüme stratejileri ile belirli bir bölgenin potansiyeline göre iş yapmaktadırlar. Bir anlamda bu sigorta acenteleri, bir bölgedeki hangi müşteri segmentlerine hangi ürünlerin sunulması gerektiğinin yanı sıra pazarlama kaynaklarının en iyi şekilde nasıl tahsis edilebileceğini belirlemekte yeteneklidirler. Şüphesiz bu durum acentenin satışlarında yüksek performansa ulaşmalarını kolaylaştırmaktadır.Araştırma sonucuna göre, elde edilen bir diğer bulgu ise, sigorta acentelerinin doğru sigorta satış temsilcilerini işe alma ve onları doğru bir şekilde görevlendirmelerdir. Acente performansını artırabilecek yüksek performanslı satış gücüne sahip olan sigorta acenteleri diğerlerine karşı önemli bir avantaj yakalamaktadır. Özellikle de acentenin istikrarlı, deneyimli yetenek havuzuna erişmesi ve en son teknoloji ve araçlarından yararlanmayı bilen işgücü onu diğer acentelerin önünde yer almasında önemli rol oynamaktadır. Elde edilen bulgular bir bütün olarak değerlendirildiğinde tespit edilen hususların en ortak özelliği ise, AMO yaklaşımı olarak da bilinen İK uygulamalarının yüksek performanslı sigorta acentelerinde çok önemli olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Çalışmanın kavramsal çerçevesinde de açıklandığı üzere, söz konusu bu yaklaşımında, çalışanların işlerini yürütme yeteneklerinin, yani, bireysel çalışanların sahip olduğu bilgi, beceri ve yetenekleri şirket performansını yakından etkilemektedir. Diğer yandan çalışanların işyerinde çaba harcama istekliliği, motivasyonu ve en önemlisi, bütün bunları değerlendirebileceği fırsatların acente performansını diğer unsurlardan daha fazla etkilediği tespit edilmiştir.Araştırma kapsamında cevabı aranan bir diğer soru ise, “bundan sonra yüksek performanslı sigorta acentelerinin ortak kritik başarı faktörleri neler olacaktır?” şeklinde belirlenmişti. Yapılan incelemeler sonucunda bugün ve gelecekte sigorta acentelerinin her şeyden önce sağlam bir kurumsal yapıya sahip olup, dijital çağın gerektirdiği tüm aksiyonları hızlı bir şekilde bünyesine adapte etme 695 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal kabiliyetine haiz olması gerekmektedir. Şüphesiz Cesur’un (2023) da belirttiği gibi, acenteşirket arsındaki ilişkiler acentenin yüksek performans göstermesinde ilk sırada yer almaktadır. Acente sahibi ve çalışanlarının değişimlere hızlı uyumu ve bu değişimlere etkili cevap verebilme yetenekleri ikinci derecede önem arz etmektedir. Üçüncü sırada da acente personelinin AMO yaklaşımı çerçevesinde çalışanların bilgi, beceri ve yeteneklerinin sürekli geliştirilmesinin yanında, motivasyonlarının yüksek tutulması ve son olarak da ortaya çıkacak fırsatları değerlendirme kapasiteleri yer almaktadır.Sigorta acentelerinin başarılı olanları hakkında yapılan çalışmaların çoğu pandemi öncesine dayanmaktadır. Günümüzde (pandemi sonrası) başarılı sigorta acentelerinin ortak özelliklerini açıklayan bir çalışmaya yapılan literatür çalışmalarında rastlanmamıştır. O yüzden konu hakkında yeni araştırmalara ihtiyaç olduğu söylenebilir. Bu çalışma böyle bir ihtiyacın giderilmesine katkı sağlayabilir. Bir başka ifade ile bu çalışma diğer araştırmacılar için bir davet anlamı taşımaktadır. 696 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Gayrimenkul sektörü, ülkelerin ekonomik koşullarından oldukça etkilenen ve ekonomiye duyarlılığı yüksek olan bir sektördür. Dolayısıyla bu sektörün durumu ülke ekonomisini istihdam, işsizlik vb. göstergeler açısından ilgilendirmektedir. Türkiye için ise bu ilgi daha çok gayrimenkul faaliyetleriyle doğrudan ilişkili olan inşaat sektörünün durumuna bağlıdır. Gayrimenkul, hukuki açıdan bir sermeye niteliğine sahiptir. Çünkü gayrimenkul tanımında da ifade edildiği üzere; bireylerin veya kurumların barınabilmek veya yatırım yapmak amacıyla sahip oldukları taşınmaz maldır (Parasız, 2015). Gayrimenkuller literatürde farklı şekillerde sınıflandırılsa da genellikle arazi ve arsalar, binalar ve projeler olarak üç ana başlık altında toplanmaktadır (Akbulut, 2023). Gayrimenkulleri finanse etmek için kullanılan yöntemler farklılık göstermekte ve ülkelerin ekonomik ve sosyal yapılarına göre şekillenmektedir (Yalçıner, 2006). Bu yöntemler; doğrudan finansman, mevduat finansmanı, mortgage kredileri, menkul kıymetleştirme ve yapı tasarruf sandığı olarak gruplara ayrılmaktadır (Akbulut, 2023).Türkiye’de faaliyet gösteren firmaları oluşturan gayrimenkul sektörü ise nüfus, kentleşme ve göç, kentsel dönüşüm, yabancı ülke vatandaşlarına satış ve ekonomiden etkilenmektedir (Akbulut, 2023).Nüfusa bakıldığında; Türkiye’nin genç ve dinamik bir nüfusuyla birlikte hayat standardındaki yükselmenin getirdiği yaşam kalitesi artışı gayrimenkule olan talebi doğrudan etkilemektedir. Yaş ortalamasındaki artış, çalışan nüfusun orta ve uzun vadede gayrimenkul ihtiyacının artacağını göstermektedir (Özdemir, 2018). Türkiye’de kentleşme ve göç birbirinden bağımsız olarak düşünülemez. Bu iki kavram iç içedir. Kentleşme, göçün etkisiyle hızlanmıştır. Türkiye’de 2011 yılına kadar iç göç yoğunluğu olsa da ilerleyen yıllarda dış göç de hızlanmıştır. Orta Doğu’daki gelişmelerle birlikte 2022 yılı itibariyle yaklaşık 4 milyon yabancı uyruklu vatandaş Türkiye’de ikamet etmektedir. Bu değişimle beraber konut talebi ve üretimi hızla artış göstermiştir (Akbulut, 2023).Yabancı ülke vatandaşlarına satışta; mütekabiliyet ilkesinin kaldırılması ve yabancı ülke vatandaşlarına vatandaşlık verilmesiyle beraber gayrimenkul satışları hızlanmış ve gayrimenkul sektörüne pozitif etki yapmıştır (Akbulut, 2023).Kentsel dönüşüm; çarpık yapıların, eski, altyapısı yetersiz, yapılaşmanın yoğun fakat afet riskine duyarlı mülklerin yeni imar planı verilerine göre düzenlemesidir (Ülger & Ülger, 2015). Kentsel dönüşüm Türkiye için özellikle deprem riskleriyle beraber sürekli gündemde yer almakta ve konut piyasasını etkilemektedir. Ekonomi kavramı ise birçok göstergeyi içinde barındırmaktadır. Bu göstergeler içerisinde yer alan kişi başı milli gelir, satın alma gücü, enflasyon, faiz oranı ve istihdam gibi faktörler 702 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal gayrimenkul sektörünü direkt olarak etkilemektedir (Akbulut, 2023).Gayrimenkul sektörüyle ilgili literatürdeki çalışmaların bazıları incelenmiş ve kronolojik olarak özetlenmiştir.Şeker (2023) çalışmasında; Türkiye Gayrimenkul Piyasaları Bileşik Endeksi hazırlamıştır. 2010 yılını baz alarak veri seti yapılmıştır. Sonuç olarak; endeksteki en güçlü 3 değişken saptanmıştır. İlk sırada konut kredisi faizleri, ikinci sırada ihraç edilen gayrimenkule dayalı finansal araçların ihraç tutarları, üçüncü olarak ise gayrimenkul değerleme uzmanı sayısı değişkenlerinin ön planda oldukları ortaya konmuştur.Çubukcu vd. (2023) tarafından yapılan araştırmada; Türkiye genelinde 2023 depremlerinden sonra gayrimenkul sektöründeki yatırımcı davranışlarını ölçmektir. Deprem öncesi ve sonrası yatırımcı davranışlarının oldukça farklılaştığı görülmüştür. Depremden sonra yapılan yatırımlarda deprem yönetmeliğine uygun olup olmamasının tasarım, fiyat vb. özelliklerin önüne geçtiğini göstermektedir. İlave olarak müstakil veya az katlı yapılan tercih edildikleri ortaya çıkarılmıştır.Zoghayyer (2022) yapmış olduğu yayınında; Covid-19’un Türkiye Emlak Piyasası üzerindeki makroekonomik etkilerini incelemiştir. Kullanılan değişkenler; konut faiz oranı ve gayrimenkul konut satışlarındaki toplam ihracattır. Veri seti Ocak 2018 – Eylül 2021 arasındaki aylık verilerden oluşmaktadır. Covid-19 öncesi ve sonrası iki regresyon modeli kurulmuştur. Ampirik bulgulara göre; ihracat hem Covid-19 öncesi hem de sonrasında konut satışlarını olumlu etkilemektedir. Faiz, konut satışlarını negatif etkilemektedir. Covid-19 döneminde ihracatın konut satışlarındaki olumlu etkisi azalırken, reel faiz oranlarının olumsuz etkisinin arttığı tespit edilmiştir. 2. MATERYAL VE YÖNTEM Araştırma 2018-2022 yılları arasını kapsayan 5 yıllık veri setinden oluşmaktadır. Araştırmaya ait verilere Kamuyu Aydınlatma Platformu (KAP) internet sitesinden erişim sağlanmıştır. Dolayısıyla ikincil verilerden oluşmaktadır. Araştırmada kullanılan örneklem Borsa İstanbul Gayrimenkul Faaliyetleri Sektörü’ne kayıtlı 3 işletmeden oluşmaktadır. Bu işletmeler; Adese Gayrimenkul, İhlas Gayrimenkul ve Sönmez Filament firmalarıdır. İşletmelere ait nakit, borçlanma ve kârlılık durumları finansal rasyolar aracılığıyla ölçülmüştür. Nakit durumunu ölçmek için likidite rasyoları kullanılmıştır. Kullanılan likidite rasyoları; cari oran, asit-test oranı ve nakit orandır. Borçlanma durumunu ölçerken finansal yapı oranlarından faydalanılmıştır. Kullanılan finansal yapı oranları; finansal kaldıraç oranı, genel ödeme gücü oranı, özkaynaklar / aktif toplamı, kısa vadeli borç / özkaynak toplamı, borçlanma katsayısıdır. Kârlılık durumu için ise kârlılık rasyoları kullanılmış ve bunlar; brüt kâr marjı, net kâr marjı, özsermaye kârlılığı ve aktif kârlılığıdır. 703 VI.

SONUÇ ve ÖNERİLER İnşaat sektörünün önderliğinde faaliyetlerini sürdüren gayrimenkul sektörü yaşanılan olaylara ve koşullara göre şekillenmektedir. Dünyada yaşanan pandemi döneminde gayrimenkul sektöründeki talep daha çok sessiz, sakin ve doğayla iç içe alanlara yapılan konutlar iken, Türkiye’de yaşanan deprem sonrası, bu kez konutların depreme dayanıklılığı birinci öncelik hâline gelmiştir. Hatta Covid-19 dönemindeki gibi az katlı binalara talep artış göstermeye başlamıştır. Gayrimenkul sektöründe başarıyı sürdürebilir kılmak için hedef kitleyi doğru tespit ederek hedef kitlenin istek ve ihtiyaçlarına hitap edebilmek son derece önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışmada Borsa İstanbul Gayrimenkul Faaliyetleri Sektörü’ne kayıtlı 3 işletmenin nakit, borçlanma ve kârlılık oranları hesaplanmıştır. Ayrıca bu işletmelerin piyasa değerleri de 711 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal bulunmuştur. Hesaplamalar 2018-2022 yılları arası 5 yılı kapsamaktadır.Elde edilen bulgular ışığında; nakit, borçlanma ve kârlılık oranları ile piyasa değerleri yorumlanmıştır. Likidite oranlarına bakıldığında; 5 yılda nakit durumu en iyi olan işletmeler farklılaşsa da genellikle 3 işletmenin de likidite oranları pozitif ve nakit durumlarının yeterli düzeyde olduğu görülmüştür. Borçlanma oranlarına göre; 3 işletmenin de yıl bazlı farklılık gösterse de ödeme güçlerinin iyi ve yeterli olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Kârlılık oranları incelendiğinde ise; net kâr marjının en çok önem verilen kârlılık oranı olduğu fakat bazı yıllarda işletmelerin zarar etmesinden dolayı net kâr marjının negatif olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Piyasa değerlerine göre genellikle 5 yıl içerisinde Sönmez Filament işletmesinin piyasa değerinin en yüksek olduğu saptanmıştır.Bu yorumlar doğrultusunda; Türkiye’de gayrimenkul sektöründe faaliyet gösteren işletmelerin pandemi gibi istisnai dönemler dışında mali durumlarının yeterli düzeyde olduğu görülmüştür. İşletmelerin mali açıdan sürdürülebilirliğini sağlamak için hedef kitlenin arz ve talebine cevap vermeleri ve sürekli yenilenmeye açık olmaları gereklidir. Gayrimenkul yatırımlarının uzun vadeli ve finansal açıdan yüksek değerli oldukları için müşteri istek ve ihtiyaçlarına cevap verebilecek şekilde kendilerini iyileştirmeleri hem firmaların geleceği hem ülke ekonomilerine katkıları için oldukça önemlidir. 712 VI.

Email:toni@projekt55.hr Tomislav ROŽIĆ (ORCID:0000-0001-8725-2427) University of Zagreb, Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences Email:trozic@fpz.unizg.hr ABSTRACT Public transport plays a vital role in people's day-to-day migrations in all modern countries around the world. High quality public transport systems are the right tool for satisfying transportation demand in most global cities. Demand for bus, rail, underground and tram transport systems is varied, and safety is the key factor of its effectiveness. Adequate operation of the public transport system has economic effects, where many urban areas focus on tackling three main problems: safety, congestion and pollution. Alongside the demand for public transport, the need for higher-level safety regulations in the public transport system is growing as well. With continuous development of technology and innovations, the human factor remains the most common cause of traffic accidents. Those commuters who trust the accountable institutions for transportation safety are prone to use the services more often. In addition, vice versa, those who have issues regarding the public transport are more inclined to use private vehicles. The behaviour of the commuters is guided by their safety transportation awareness and is also influenced by individual factors and the environment. In this paper, based on extend literature review, it will be emphasized the most important characteristics for the establishment of safe public transport. This research was motivated by the need to better understand, address, and optimize safety, behaviour, and economic aspects related to public transportation, while emphasizing the role of technology and considering socioeconomic factors. The scientific contribution of this paper lies in the recognition of the multifaceted relationship between public transport, safety, and individual behaviour, and the intention to provide insights based on a literature review to enhance the safety and efficiency of public transportation systems in urban areas. Keywords: expenses for transport, safety, safety awareness, public transport. 714 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INTRODUCTION In most of the world's metropolises, transport demand is met precisely through high-quality public transport systems (Schmöcker, Bell & Lam, 2010). The lack of transportation is an obstacle to accessibility and social inclusion in modern society. Thus, in rural and sparsely populated areas, access to public transport, compared to urban areas, is often poor, which leads to fewer opportunities for rural residents to participate in various activities (Berg & Ihlström, 2019). The development of transport services is a very important factor for the quality of life, and the availability of public transport plays a key role in the evaluation and design of transport systems in terms of mobility and sustainability (Saif, Zefreh & Torok, 2019). Considering that the public transport system enables the transportation of passengers to school, public health institutions and to work, it is extremely important to take care of examining the competitiveness of it (Poliak et al., 2017). Taking into account the undoubted importance of this system, there is a lot of research that focused on the functioning of the same. Thus, the findings of earlier research, among others, confirmed that the key factor for the efficient functioning of the public transport system is safety (Marusin, Marusin & Danilov, 2018; Schmöcker, Bell & Lam, 2010). Passengers show a greater preference for using public transport systems when they believe in the safety of the same (Jain et al., 2014). As the demand for the use of public transport grows, so does the need to establish a higher level of security in the public transport system (Wang et al., 2020). Public transport represents a greater risk for safety because, as a rule, the means of transport in this system in most cases contain a large number of passengers. The problem of establishing a safe public transport system is even more pronounced in developing countries due to the lack of appropriate and integrated approaches (Joewono & Kubota, 2006). Taking into account the crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, it can be seen that now is the right time to rebuild trust in public transport and to give it the attention that deserves through politics and investment decisions (United Nations Habitat, 2021).According to the above, the purpose of this paper is to conduct a systematic literature review of the studies that have analysed the public transportation with special emphasis on those which have put focus on the establishment of the safe public transportation. The expected results of the research are likely to include a comprehensive overview of the state of public transportation safety, identification of key challenges and best practices, and potential recommendations for policymakers and urban planners to improve safety and accessibility in public transportation systems. After the introduction section, in the second chapter it will be analysed the significance and specifics of public transportation. In the third chapter, the focus is on crucial aspects for the establishment 715 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal of safe public transport. Discussion is provided in the fourth chapter, while conclusion remarks are presented in the fourth chapter. 2. SIGNIFANCE AND SPECIFICS OF PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION Public transport plays a key role in the daily migration of people in all modern countries of the world (Tirachini & Cats, 2020). Transport systems are complex and dynamic systems that include people, vehicles, infrastructure and the environment; and eventual deficiencies of this system can very easily cause a traffic accident (Feng et al., 2021). Requirements for bus, railway, subway and tram systems are diverse, and the key factor for their efficient functioning is safety (Marusin, Marusin & Danilov, 2018). Most of the developed countries are making efforts to increase the share of public transportation, and in the period from 2017 to 2021, city authorities around the world implemented numerous projects to improve the operation of the public transportation system (McKinsey & Company, July 2021). Adequate functioning of the public transport system has economic effects, whereby many urban areas solve three main problems: safety, congestion and pollution (Schmöcker, Bell and Lam, 2010). Traditional public transport, operated by heavily subsidized public bodies using separate modes, was fragmented in terms of timetables, ticketing, and customer service alignment. This approach, while asset-focused, often hindered citizens; journey options across transit systems, with agencies adopting a monopoly mindset. But today, new market players are improving last-mile transportation with enhanced services and convenience. Emerging disruptive transport technologies and the seamless service interactions in other sectors have raised customer expectations for public transport. The future of mature transport systems lies in integrated services, effortless payments, and enhanced customer experiences (KPMG, November 2022)Not only is public transport important when it comes to providing the workforce with the means to travel to work and generally across a given region; it allows for a better distribution of congestion levels across different modes of transport, which usually contribute to reduced carbon dioxide emissions, for example if individuals opt for public transport instead of driving a car (Burgueño Salas, 28.11.2022). Along with the growing demand for public transport, the need for establishment a higher level of security in the public transport system also grows stronger (Wang et al., 2020). There is continuous development of technology and innovative solutions, and the human factor remains the most common cause of traffic accidents (Feng et al., 2021).The specificity of social dialogue in public transport in many countries of Central and Eastern Europe is characterized by a high degree of decentralization with a lack of sectoral or 716 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal national organizations. Thus, social dialogue in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe is organized mainly within the framework of national social and economic councils that make decisions on various topics at the state or company level (Bordogna, 2018). An important contribution to the social dialogue in the public transport segment in Europe is made by the European social partners for public transport: The International Association of Public Transport (UITP) and The European Transport Workers' Federation Federation (ETF)) (Europäische Akademie für umweltorientierten Verkehr gGmbH, May 2019). Rundmo et al. (2011) emphasize that there is a significant relationship between trust in accountable institutions and the use of public transport. People who trust the institutions in charge of transport safety use public transport more often. Consequently, people with less trust in accountable institutions will be more inclined to use privately owned means of transport (Rundmo et al., 2011).For many regional journeys, walking and cycling are not viable options, meaning that public transport is often the only alternative to the car for such journeys. People in rural areas are at risk of being excluded from participating in normal relationships and activities if they do not have a driver's license or access to a car (Lucas, 2012). The quality of regional public transport services affects the independent movement of this group, especially children and adolescents (Berg & Ihlstrom, 2019). The availability of public transport has a significant impact on life satisfaction in the form of perceived accessibility (Saif, Zefreh & Torok, 2019). Although public transport represents a financial burden for public budgets, it must not be forgotten that it ensures the mobility of passengers that usual dispose with less financial means (pensioners, students, etc.) (Poliak et al, 2017). An efficient public transport system, including its management, plays a significant role in economic development (Madejski, Amushila & Kulatau, 2014). The concluding remarks serve to encapsulate the significance and multifaceted impact of public transport, underlining its role in enhancing safety, environmental sustainability, social inclusion, and economic development. 3. CRUCIAL ASPECTS FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF SAFE PUBLIC TRANSPORT Passengers in public transport have high demands from service providers expecting safety, comfort, regularity, frequency, speed and economics (Hussain, Zefreh & Torok, 2018). The most important requirement of passengers in public transport is safety (Vuletić, Horak & Jurčević, 2021: 63; Jain et al., 2014). The behaviour of road users is driven by their transportation safety awareness (Feng et al., 2021), which is influenced by individual factors and the environment (Feng et al., 2021; Tao, Zhang & Qu, 2017). When a person thinks about safety, he is motivated 717 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal to find countermeasures to avoid accidents or at least reduce their consequences. Fear of crime is an important issue affecting passengers' perception of public transport safety. Especially when it comes to younger people who often avoid using public transport services due to prejudice (Currie, Delbosc & Mahmoud, 2013). Potential security threats in the public transport system relate to injuries caused by infrastructure (eg escalators), violent crime (eg sexual offences, stabbings, terrorism), non-violent crime (eg vandalism, drug use, trespassing, drunkenness), or viruses (Friman, Lättman & Olsson, 2020).The level of transportation safety awareness determines the participation of individuals in the traffic activities of public and private transport (Liu, 2007) and affects the level of expenditure of individuals for transport needs. Expenditures for transportation represent an important part of an individual's budget, and at the same time there are large variations in consumption due to belonging to a particular socio-economic group. On average, individuals with the highest income spend 1.8 times more on transportation than individuals from the lowest income group (Kauppila, 2015). The share of transport expenses in personal consumption increases with income, and most often as a result of buying a personal car (European Environment Agency, 2012). Transport policies aimed at sustainability, i.e. those that promote public transport and the reduction of cars, reduce the impact of the crisis on the amount of personal expenditure on transport (Cascajo et al., 2018). For people with higher incomes, public transportation represents an inferior good, and their transportation expenditures are relatively higher for public and private transportation (Burguillo, Romero-Jordan & SanzSanz, 2017). Due to the growing awareness of public transport safety among people with higher incomes, the demand for public transport services is increasing (Gandelman, Serebrisky & Suárez-Alemán, 2019).The behaviour of traffic users is guided by their transportation safety (Feng et al., 2021). Transportation safety awareness implies continuous adjustment of the individual's activities and behaviour (Liu, 2007). An individual's transportation safety awareness is associated with a safe way of participating in transportation (Liu, 2007). Factors affecting transportation safety awareness are divided into individual factors and environmental factors. Gender, age, level of education, occupation, income and mode of travel have a significant impact on the way public transport services are used (Zhu et al., 2014). Men are more prone to less safe behaviour in transport, so for example a larger proportion of them do not use a seat belt (Ghadban et al., 2017). Personality traits imply a recognizable pattern of feelings, thoughts and behaviour of individuals (McCrae & Costa, 2021), and are significantly related to the risky behaviour of road users. Personality traits contribute to indirect effects on crash risk driven by road users' unsafe behaviour (Tao, Zhang & Qu, 2017). In addition to 718 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal individual factors, environmental factors have an important influence on safety awareness (education about traffic safety, records of traffic violations, approval of violations of traffic regulations and traffic culture (Feng et al., 2021). Education about transportation safety, especially for children, significantly improves their safety knowledge, but also their transportation safety awareness (Rosenbloom et al., 2008). Safety awareness in the context of public transport refers to the safety knowledge of passengers that enables the protection of persons (individuals and others), as well as influencing others to behave safely in public transport (Wang et al., 2020). Individuals are more likely to develop safety awareness if they perceive the behaviour of people around them and if their friends and family follow certain safety regulations (Chang & Liao, 2010; Chan et al., 2005). Also, normative encouragement from important people has a positive effect on the development of an individual's consciousness (Asif et al., 2018). The role of the interpersonal environment is emphasized when studying an individual's transportation safety awareness. Family and friends can be the basis of emotional support in developing safety awareness. If a larger share of close people does not approve the violation of regulations on transportation safety, the individual's awareness of it is higher (Feng et al., 2021). Transport safety culture includes all factors related to drivers, vehicles and infrastructure (Leviäkangs, 1998) and therefore has a strong influence on an individual's safety awareness. Gehlert et al. (2014) emphasize how it unites the thoughts and feelings of the participants about transportation in the environment as well as the possible intentions of the participants regarding behaviour. Chen et al (2023) research the impact of the neighborhood and working environment on green commuting from a health perspective. Authors conclude that good working environment and relationships will significantly encourage the sub-healthy group to choose active commuting.Individuals with a positive attitude toward safe passenger behaviour seek important safety information and become more aware of the importance of safe transportation behaviour (Wang et al., 2020). The safe behaviour of passengers in public transport implies the actions shown by passengers to reduce the probability of occurrence of unwanted events when traveling by public transport (Wang et al., 2020). The state of traffic safety in an area is inseparable from the transportation safety awareness of the local public. Therefore, in order to improve the transport safety, that is, public transport, it is crucial to improve the transportation safety awareness (Rong, 2008). Safe behaviour in transport refers to all behaviours that the public shows when participating in public transport, which enable them to comply with regulations and protect themselves and other people in case of danger (Feng et al., 2021).Safety awareness implies the passenger's safety knowledge that enables him to 719 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal consciously protect himself and others, as well as influence others for the purpose of safe behaviour in public transport (Wang et al., 2020). The level of transportation safety awareness determines the participation of individuals in transportation activities, whether public or private (Liu, 2007) and affects the level of personal expenditures for transportation needs. Among people with a higher income, due to the increase in safety awareness of the public transport, the share of public transport use increases (Gandelman, Serebrisky & Suárez-Alemán, 2019). Expenditures for transportation represent an important part of an individual's budget, and there are large variations in consumption depending on belonging to a particular socio-economic group (Kauppila, 2015). Personal expenses for transportation refer to the cost of buying a private car, the cost of fuel and the cost of usage of public transportation (Köhler, Luhmann & Wadeskog, 2004). A person's position along the rural-urban continuum significantly affects transportation expenditures as well as the perceived severity of problems related to a particular type of transportation. People with disabilities and the elderly have similar spending patterns for transportation, as well as the interdependence of the same with safety awareness of a particular type of transportation (Venter, 2011).The establishment of an adequate and safe public transport system is an urban necessity. In order to establish a more sustainable transport system, it is necessary to provide all citizens access to the public transport system and, if necessary, to work on its expansion (United Nations Habitat, 2021). A safe public transport system is of primary importance for any economic system. Therefore, one of the roles of the European Commission is to respond to these expectations by ensuring satisfactory standards throughout the Union for safety in all modes of transport, especially the public transport system (European Commission, 2022). Through provisions such as the EU Road Safety Policy Framework 2021-2030 (European Commission, 2019) and White Paper 2011 Mobility and Transport (European Commission, 2011)), the European Commission strives to standardize and improve the level of safety of the public transport system at the level of the Union. It was the recent crisis periods (coronavirus pandemic and Russia's invasion of Ukraine) that confirmed that public transport is an important backbone for the functioning of highly urbanized areas.In essence, the concluding remarks reinforce the importance of public transport safe-ty, its influence on behaviour and expenditures, and its role in urban and economic con-texts. As well it is also emphasize the efforts made by organizations like the European Commission to ensure and enhance safety standards in public transport. 4. DISCUSSION 720 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Based on the analyzed research that have observed or highlighted the signifance and specifics of public transportation, it is evident that public transport is recognized as playing a crucial role in the daily lives of people in modern countries, facilitating their mobility and daily activities (Pichardo-Muñiz, 2011; Mononen & Leviäkangas, 2016). Safety is identified as a fundamental factor in the efficient functioning of public transport systems. The text underscores that deficiencies in these systems can lead to traffic accidents, emphasizing the need for safety measures. Public transport systems are noted to have economic effects, addressing issues like safety, congestion, and pollution in urban areas (Singh, 2012; Pojani & Stead, 2017; Allbalate & Fageda, 2019; Almatar, 2024). They contribute to a better distribution of congestion levels and reduced carbon dioxide emissions (Kramberger, Dragan & Prah, 2014; Newman & Kenworthy, 2015; Liu, Yu & He, 2022; Al-Jabir & Isaifan, 2024) highlighting their positive environmental impact.The ongoing development of technology and the persistent role of human behaviour in traffic accidents are acknowledged, reinforcing the need for evolving safety measures and technology in public transport. The role of social dialogue and trust in accountable institutions is discussed, pointing out that trust in these institutions is linked to increased use of public transport. Lack of trust may lead to a preference for private means of transportation (Maroun et al., 2024; Nasrin & Bunker, 2024). Public transport is considered essential, particularly in rural areas (Šťastná & Vaishar, 2017; Porru et al, 2020) to prevent the exclusion of individuals from participating in normal activities due to a lack of personal transportation options. It is essential for independent movement, especially for children and adolescents. The availability of public transport is connected to life satisfaction, particularly regarding perceived accessibility. Public transport is highlighted as a critical option for individuals with limited financial means. Passengers in public transport have high expectations, with safety being the most critical requirement. Safety is paramount for passenger satisfaction (Mouwen, 2015). The behaviour of road users is strongly influenced by their transportation safety awareness, which is shaped by both individual and environmental factors. Fear of crime, particularly among younger individuals, affects passengers' perception of public transport safety and can deter them from using these services.Transportation expenses represent a significant portion of an individual's budget (Kapatsila, Collins & Grise, 2024). The level of transportation safety awareness affects personal transportation choices and expenditures. There are notable variations in transportation expenditures based on socio-economic status. People with higher incomes tend to spend more on transportation, and safety awareness in public transport can lead to increased usage among this group. Transport safety culture, which 721 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal encompasses drivers, vehicles, and infrastructure, plays a crucial role in influencing individuals' safety awareness.A positive attitude toward safe passenger behaviour leads individuals to seek safety information and become more aware of the importance of safe transportation behaviour. Transportation safety awareness enables passengers to consciously protect themselves and others while influencing safe behaviour in public transport. Establishing an adequate and safe public transport system is a necessity for urban areas. A safe public transport system is essential for economic stability. The European Commission is mentioned as an entity working to ensure satisfactory safety standards in all modes of transport, including public transport, at the European Union level. In the previous chapter it is also under-scored the resilience of public transport during recent crisis periods, such as the corona-virus pandemic and geopolitical events, highlighting its importance in urbanized areas.For better understanding the relationship between safety awareness and public transport usage, future research could delve into behavioural studies. These studies might explore how individuals' perceptions of safety influence their choices and behaviours in public transport systems. As well it could be conducted comparative analysis which can be valuable to understand how different cities or regions have successfully improved safety in their public transport systems. Research can identify best practices, policies, and strategies for enhancing safety. 5. CONCLUSION Safety in public transport is extremely important considering that public transport is closely connected with human lives, and because of fact that in most situation a large number of people participate in it at the same time. It is not disputed that public transport plays an important role in the functioning of economic systems, given that it enables people to be transported to schools, faculties and work. But in order to ensure an even greater role of public transport in the functioning of individual cities, as well as a role in the establishment of a more sustainable transport system, it is necessary to continuously work on the establishment of a higher level of safety. It should not be overlooked that the establishment of an adequate and safe public transport system is an urban necessity.An important factor influencing people's attitudes towards the use of the public transport system is precisely their transportation safety awareness, which is influenced by individual and environmental factors. Thus, the level of transportation safety awareness actually determines whether individuals can participate in the public transport system in a safe manner and in compliance with regulations, and it also affects the level of personal consumption for transport needs. When people perceive the public transport system as 722 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal safer, then they are more willing to use its services more often. Accountable institutions should allocate more financial resources to safety education, because through it both the knowledge of individuals and the transportation safety awareness can be significantly improved.In order to establish a safe public transport system, in addition to the adoption of an adequate development transport policy, it is necessary to influence the growth of transportation safety awareness by taking appropriate measures. A public transport system that does not use its capacity represents only financial damage to society, and therefore it is extremely important not only to take care of the technical aspects of establishing more safety, but above all to restore or create people's trust in the safety of the public transport system. 723 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal THERAPY FOR TUBERCULOSIS AND MEDICATION SCHEDULES: A COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW MK VIJAYALAKSHMI Associate Professor, Bharath Institute of Higher Education and Research, Faculty of Pharmacy. NADHIYA Final year student, Bharath Institute of Higher Education and Research, Faculty of Pharmacy. SNEGA Final year student, Bharath Institute of Higher Education and Research, Faculty of Pharmacy. Email:nadhiyajayaraman1@gmail.com ABSTRACT Multimodal therapy regimens are used to treat tuberculosis, an infectious disease spread through the air. Maintaining an appropriate blood medication level during long-term antituberculosis therapy requires strict adherence. Inadequate patient care is a major factor in the emergence and dissemination of strains that are resistant to Mycobacterium TB. Because there are costly, ineffective, and hazardous substitutes for first-line medications, treating tuberculosis that has developed drug resistance is a laborious process. In recent years, health government officials have approved two new antituberculosis medications: bedaquiline and delamanid. However, these drugs cannot serve as the only treatment for tuberculosis that has developed drug-resistant forms; this is especially true in settings with intermediate economies, like China, India, and the collapsed Soviet republics, where resistance to medications is common. There is an urgent need for new research and development initiatives. It is necessary for public health policies to protect both novel and traditional therapy alternatives. Combination treatment is used in the treatment of tuberculosis. Although there are new medications currently being researched and licenced (such as bedaquiline), the leadership of tuberculosis has become more difficult due to the rise in drug-resistant forms of the illness. A key element in the leadership and oversight of tuberculosis is the use of medical treatment in conjunction with accurate diagnosis. From a clinical and public health standpoint, it matters because tuberculosis is a dangerously contagious illness that may spread through the air. Keywords: Anti tuberculosis, Bedaquiline, Combination treatment . 730 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INTRODUCTION One of the most serious infectious illnesses in the world, tuberculosis, has a major effect on public health. Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a bacteria that causes tuberculosis, mostly affects the lungs, though it can also damage the kidneys, spine, and brain. It is extremely contagious because it spreads via the air when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks. Clinical manifestations of tuberculosis vary, encompassing latent infection, in which individuals harbour the bacteria without exhibiting symptoms or disseminating the disease, and active tuberculosis disease, which is marked by symptoms like fever, cough, weight loss, and exhaustion. Tuberculosis can be lethal or extremely debilitating if left untreated. Poverty, overcrowding, malnutrition, and weaker immune systems particularly in those with HIV/AIDS are factors that contribute to the persistence of tuberculosis[1]. Additionally, a major obstacle to international tuberculosis control efforts is the growth of drug-resistant forms of the disease. A multimodal strategy is used to fight tuberculosis, involving early detection, suitable treatment, infection control practices, and public health initiatives. A combination of clinical assessment, imaging techniques (like chest X-rays), and laboratory testing (like sputum microscopy and culture) are usually used to make the diagnosis[2]. To properly eradicate the germs and stop the emergence of drug resistance, treatment for tuberculosis usually entails a combination of antibiotics administered over a period of many months. A popular tactic to guarantee treatment adherence and enhance results is Directly Observed Therapy, in which a medical professional watches patients take their medications. Even with improvements in tuberculosis diagnosis and treatment, societal stigma surrounding the illness, a lacklustre healthcare system, and restricted access to treatments all continue to impede the fight against tuberculosis. To reach the aim of eliminating tuberculosis as a worldwide health issue, governments, healthcare providers, researchers, and communities must work together in harmony[3]. PHARMACOLOGICAL TREATMENT FOR TUBERCULOSIS : Anti-tuberculosis medications are a class of antibiotics used in combination to treat tuberculosis. The purpose of these medications is to eradicate the tuberculosis causing germs and stop antibiotic resistance from growing. The most widely used anti tubercular medications are as follows: 731 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Isoniazid (INH): An important first-line medication for tuberculosis treatment, isoniazid acts by preventing the bacterial cell wall’s ability to synthesise mycolic acids, which eventually results in the death of the bacteria. Rifampicin (RIF): Rifampicin is another first-line medication that kills bacteria by preventing them from synthesising RNA. It is frequently taken in addition to other medications to treat tuberculosis. Pyrazinamide (PZA): In acidic settings, like those present inside macrophages, pyrazinamide is effective against bacteria that are actively multiplying. It is essential for reducing the length of time that tuberculosis lasts[4]. Ethambutol (EMB): Ethambutol helps to kill off mycobacteria by preventing the synthesis of certain cell wall components. When treating tuberculosis, it is frequently used in conjunction with other medications, especially to stop the emergence of drug resistance. Streptomycin: This injectable antibiotic is mostly used for drug-resistant tuberculosis cases or in situations where other first-line medications are intolerable. Drug-resistant strains of tuberculosis may also be treated with second-line medications in addition to these first-line medications. These medications include injectable antibiotics like kanamycin and amikacin, as well as fluoroquinolones like levofloxacin and moxifloxacin. Drug susceptibility test findings, the existence of comorbidities, and the patient’s clinical presentation all play a role in the selection of medications and treatment plans[5]. MULTI DRUG THERAPY The mainstay of treatment for tuberculosis (TB) is multi-drug therapy (MDT), particularly in cases where the tuberculosis bacteria is caused by drug-sensitive strains. To minimise the possibility of drug resistance and target distinct stages of the bacterial life cycle, multiple antibiotics are used simultaneously in a method known as multidrug resistance. Eliminating the tuberculosis germs from the body and avoiding relapse is the main goal of MDT[6]. It usually entails a mix of first-line anti-tubercular medications, which are quite successful in treating the majority of TB strains. For drug-sensitive tuberculosis, the most often prescribed combination regimen consists of isoniazid (INH), rifampicin (RIF), pyrazinamide (PZA), and ethambutol (EMB) [7]. Together, these medications suppress the manufacture of proteins, RNA, and cell walls, among other methods that the bacteria use to survive. MDT lessens the possibility of 732 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal drug-resistant strains emerging by focusing on several facets of bacterial growth and replication, assisting in the effective destruction of all germs[8]. Depending on variables like the patient’s reaction to treatment and the extent of the illness, the multi drug therapy usually lasts six to nine months. Patients must closely follow the recommended treatment plan throughout this time in order to get positive results. Multi drug therapy is frequently given as part of directly observed therapy (DOT), in which a medical professional or other qualified observer makes sure patients take their prescriptions as directed. This strategy lowers the chance of treatment failure and relapse while also enhancing treatment adherence[9]. Second-line therapies, which are effective against TB strains resistant to first-line medications, may be added to the multidisciplinary treatment plan (MDT) in cases of drug-resistant tuberculosis. Drug-resistant tuberculosis, on the other hand, is more difficult to treat and may need longer periods of therapy with a variety of antibiotics, including injectable ones. In general, MDT is essential to the treatment of tuberculosis (TB) since it aids in the infection’s cure, stops its spread, and lessens the burden of medication resistance. On the other hand, prompt diagnosis, wise treatment choices, and rigorous commitment to the recommended course of action are necessary for good results[10]. DRUG RESISTANT TUBERCULOSIS AND TREATMENT CHALLENGES Global attempts to eliminate tuberculosis (TB) are severely hampered by drug-resistant TB. It happens when the tuberculosis-causing germs become resistant to one or more of the medications prescribed to treat the illness. Two primary forms of drug-resistant tuberculosis exist: Multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB): This type of TB is resistant to isoniazid and rifampicin, two of the most effective first-line anti-TB medications. Extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB): This is a more severe type of tuberculosis that is resistant to intravenous second-line treatments such as amikacin, kanamycin, or capreomycin, as well as to at least one fluoroquinolone, isoniazid, and rifampicin[11]. Because there are fewer treatment options, longer treatment periods, more potent second-line medications, and greater treatment costs for drug-resistant TB, treating this type of TB is far more complicated and difficult than treating drug-sensitive TB. The following are some of the main obstacles to treating drug-resistant tuberculosis: 733 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Restricted Treatment Options: Compared to drug-sensitive TB, drug-resistant TB is treated with fewer potent medications. Second-line medications are frequently more costly, more hazardous, and less successful for treating drug-resistant tuberculosis. Extended Treatment Period: Compared to drug-sensitive TB, which usually only needs 6 to 9 months of medication, treatment for drug-resistant TB usually takes a longer period of time, ranging from 9 to 24 months or more. The chance of side effects, relapse, and treatment failure rises with extended ttreatment[12]. Increased Toxicity: When second-line medications are used to treat drug-resistant tuberculosis, there is a greater chance of side effects, such as peripheral neuropathy, renal damage, hearing loss, and mental health issues. Handling these side effects calls for careful observation and can call for modifying the prescribed course of action. High Cost: Treating drug-resistant TB is far more expensive than treating drug-sensitive TB because it requires longer treatment periods, more costly medications, and specialised monitoring and care. Treatment Adherence: For drug-resistant tuberculosis treatment to be effective, patients must adhere to the recommended treatment plan. Adherence, however, may be more difficult for patients due to the extended length of therapy, the higher pill burden, and the intensity of unpleasant effects[13]. MANAGEMENT OF SIDE EFFECTS Effective control of side effects during tuberculosis (TB) treatment is essential to good treatment outcomes, patient adherence, and reduced treatment interruptions. Medication for tuberculosis (TB), especially second-line treatments for drug-resistant TB, can have a number of adverse effects, such as: Gastrointestinal Symptoms: Many TB drugs can cause nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain as adverse effects, particularly if taken empty. To lessen stomach discomfort, patients may be encouraged to take their prescriptions with meals. Hepatic toxicity: Isoniazid and rifampicin are two examples of TB medications that can harm the liver and result in hepatitis, increased liver enzymes, or even cirrhosis of the liver. Clients should be advised to report any symptoms of jaundice, stomach pain, or dark urine at least once. Liver function test monitoring is crucial[14]. 734 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Peripheral Neuropathy: Some TB medications, such as isoniazid and ethambutol, can harm peripheral nerves, leading to symptoms including tingling, numbness, or weakness in the hands and feet. Peripheral neuropathy may be prevented or treated using vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) supplements. Ototoxicity: Injectable TB medications, including capreomycin, kanamycin, and amikacin, might result in balance issues or hearing loss. Patients should receive counselling with the warning signals of ototoxicity, and audiometric monitoring is required to detect any changes in hearing[15]. Nephropathy Toxicity: Aminoglycosides (kanamycin, amikacin, etc.) and capreomycin are examples of aminoglycosides that can harm the kidneys. Moisturising may be advised to reduce the risk of kidney toxicity, and monitoring renal function tests is crucial. Visual Disability: An optic neuritis that results from ethambutol, a regularly used TB medicine, can cause visual abnormalities or possibly irreversible vision loss. Patients should report any changes in vision as soon as they occur, and regular vision testing is essential[16]. Adjusting dosages, temporarily stopping problematic medications, or switching to other medications are some methods of managing adverse effects. Supportive treatments such as topical medications for skin responses, analgesics for stomach discomfort, and antiemetics for nausea may occasionally be recommended to treat symptoms. Throughout the duration of TB therapy, healthcare providers are essential in keeping an eye out for side effects, informing patients about possible adverse responses, and offering support and guidance. To maximise treatment success and reduce the risk of side effects, close communication between patients and healthcare providers is necessary[17]. CONCLUSION Tuberculosis (TB) remains a significant global health challenge, with drug-resistant strains posing an increasingly formidable threat. The management of TB requires a comprehensive approach that encompasses early diagnosis, appropriate treatment, infection control measures, and patient support. Pharmacological treatments, including multi-drug therapy (MDT), are essential for effectively treating TB and preventing the development of drug resistance. However, the emergence of drug-resistant TB presents unique challenges, including limited treatment options, prolonged treatment durations, increased toxicity, and higher costs. 735 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Managing side effects is crucial for ensuring patient adherence and treatment success. Healthcare providers play a vital role in monitoring for side effects, educating patients about potential adverse reactions, and providing support throughout the treatment process. At the local, national, and international levels, coordinated efforts are required to solve the problems caused by tuberculosis. This entails bolstering medical systems, boosting financing for tuberculosis research and control initiatives, enhancing infection control practices, and increasing access to diagnoses and treatment. Ultimately, governments, medical professionals, researchers, civil society organisations, and impacted communities must work together to coordinate and persistently eradicate tuberculosis as a global health issue. Together, we can accomplish the aim of eliminating tuberculosis from the world. 736 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal OPINIONS OF EDUCATION ADMINISTRATORS ON EFFECTIVE SCHOOL DEVELOPMENT: A CASE STUDY Doç. Dr. Süleyman KARATAŞ Akdeniz University Özlem Güngören PAZZANESE Akdeniz University ABSTRACT In this study, it was aimed to reveal the opinions of the education administrators working in Antalya city Muratpaşa district official public schools in the context of their opinions about effective school and to determine their views on effective school development. In the study, one of the qualitative research designs, the holistic multi-case design based on the case study was used. The data collection technique of the research is individual interview. The interviews were made using the semi-structured interview form developed by the researcher, and the descriptive analysis technique was used in the data analysis. As a result of the research, it was determined that most of the education administrators had knowledge about the concept of effectiveness, but it was determined that they perceive the concept as a social activity in terms of the concept of activity. According to the views of the administrators, the ideas that the characteristics of effective schools should primarily provide the school's education-training service in the best way, the school should attach importance to the relationship between the school and the environment, and the school climate and culture are noteworthy.It was emphasized that education administrators think that each school has its own mission and vision, that being effective and efficient can only be achieved with a vision and mission determined according to needs, and that physical needs, maintenance of classes and materials should be completed in cooperation with all stakeholders in order for schools to be effective. Participants emphasized that discipline, punishment and reward should be intertwined with a flexible educational environment in an effective school, and emphasized the importance of the concepts of school climate and corporate culture, and mentioned a need-oriented planning.Finally, in this study, the importance of breaking out of routine behaviors of effective schools, providing students with different educational environments, and doing extra studies was mentioned, and it was concluded that students' change in the desired direction and their self-actualization depend on these differences. It was emphasized that motivation is important while meeting the different expectations and needs of the stakeholders of an effective school, but positive reinforcement can be achieved with positive communication and cooperation. It was mentioned that random goals are not achieved in effective schools, and that clear and clear criteria are required according to the structure and mission-vision of the schools. It has been concluded that effective schools must focus on the necessity and indispensability of change and adapt to changes in order to be effective. According to the educational administrators, the lack of control in educational organizations has once again emerged, and the fact that the greatest deficiency in becoming an effective school originates from this gap has been emphasized with precision. 739 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INTRODUCTION The biggest task of schools is to help students achieve the set goals. Schools that provide students with targeted behaviors in the desired direction are effective and successful schools. The aim is that all schools should be effective, and the studies and recommendations made in order for schools to be effective schools will make it easier for schools to move along this path. The aim of this study is to define an effective school based on the opinions of school administrators working in Muratpaşa district of Antalya province and to reveal what needs to be done in developing an effective school. For this purpose, the answers to the following questions were sought in the research. 1- What do the concepts of effectiveness and effectiveness mean for managers? 2- What does effective school mean according to administrators? Why? 3- How should the structuring process of effective schools be? Why? 4- According to the administrators, what is seen and applied in effective schools? 5- According to managers, what are the duties of stakeholders in effective schools? RESEARCH AND FINDINGS In this study, the qualitative research design was used. The focus of qualitative research is to understand, explain, examine, explore and clarify the situations, feelings, perceptions, attitudes, values, beliefs and experiences of a group of individuals (Çokluk & Şekercioğlu, 2014). Since the research was conducted with education administrators who voluntarily participated in the research working in different official public schools in Muratpasa district of Antalya Province, a holistic multi-situation design related to case study, one of the qualitative research patterns, was used in this study. The data collection technique of the research is individual interview. The data were recorded and notes were taken during the interview. First of all, the records were handled and written down. The written data were recorded after the individual interviews were completed. In the data analysis, inductive descriptive analysis method was used. The themes created after analyzing the literature and data tools were categorized in the form expressed in the research method and these themes were listed as: effectiveness and effectiveness, effective school, 740 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal effective school configuration, effective school practices, stakeholder tasks, models designed to improve effective school. CONCLUSION The participants think that each school has its own unique mission and vision, that being effective and efficient can only be achieved with a vision and mission determined according to needs, and that involving parents and other stakeholders in this process will increase the impact, overlap in this respect and sufficiently demonstrate the necessity of the vision and mission. One of the results of this research is student-centered activities. The prerequisite for these activities is that the trust and physical conditions are made suitable for students. For an effective education system, it is necessary to provide a certain level of minimum resources and facilities. Schools with effective education systems should provide facilities and equipment that meet the basic health and safety needs of all students (Kemal & Karip, 1996). From this point of view, the participants support this idea by expressing that physical needs, classroom maintenance and materials should be completed with TAF, stakeholders and cooperation in order for schools to be effective, emphasizing the importance of meeting basic needs by talking about corporate culture and school climate. If the school administrator can create an effective culture and an effective school climate, he can contribute to the development of a healthy school personality by increasing the motivation of teachers (Çelik, 2002). In this context, it has been emphasized in this research that motivation is important when meeting the different expectations and needs of stakeholders of an effective school, but positive reinforcement can be achieved through positive communication and cooperation. Also, the lack of supervision in organizations in Turkey has once again emerged in this study, and the fact that the biggest deficiency in becoming an effective school is born from this gap has been emphasized by school administrators. 741 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal DECOLONISATION AND ITS AFTERMATH: PESSIMISM AND OPTIMISM’S DESCRIPTION OF NIGERIAN SPACE, 1980S-2015 Olufemi Timothy OGUNBODE Department of History, Faculty of Arts, Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso, Oyo State. Email:olufemitimothyogunbode@gmail.com Abstract The thoughts of being pessimistic and optimistic about the remote and contemporary issues of Nigeria after independence have birth political thoughts in the dimensions of hope and ruin in the building of Nigerian nationhood. It is evidently true that, the large proportion of decolonisation activities were of the 20th-century in Africa. This does not position the critical thinking about it to be limited to the above mentioned century, but did flow into the 21st-century experiences of Africa. Hence, Africa as a continent recognised 1950s and 1975 as the landmark periodisation of the phenomenon of decolonisation in history. In light of this fact, the political thoughts of pessimism and optimism have become a strong instrument in the definition of Nigeria as a state of hope or ruin after breaking lose from the grip of the colonial masters in 1960. These thoughts will guide this discourse with reference to Nigeria because it created unprecedented platforms to host critical thinking about her existence since independence. More so, agitations of Nigerians who were brought together in 1914 with Nigerian Council Constitution cannot be under emphasised in this discourse. Thereafter, the agitators found errors in the constitution formation and started with constitutional reforms and better life for her people till independence in 1960. Consequently, the constitutional reforms and agitations led into two political thoughts of pessimism and optimism in the Nigerian space from 1980s to 2015. Keywords: Pessimism, Optimism, Decolonisation, Nigeria and Constitution 744 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction This study explores 35 years’ experience of Nigerian State existence after independence between 1980 and 2015. Nigerian State has been searching for her nationhood since 1980s and this explains the trajectory of the thoughts of pessimism and optimism in its growth and development in the period under review. This search for nationhood has generated the national question phenomenon in the building of Nigerian State. As a result of these agitations, Nigeria has been confronted with series of agitations such as Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB), Niger Delta People’s Volunteer Force (NDPVF), Oodua’s People’s Congress (OPC) and Boko Haram insurgence and banditry, among others questioning the hope or ruin notion for Nigerian State.1 From the perspective of constitution making in the country since the earliest experience in 1914 up to the most recent in 1999, questions bordering on Nigeria’s existence or otherwise have continued to generate controversial strands of thoughts. With this understanding, Babatunde and Morakinyo opine that the constitutional trajectory in Nigeria can be broadly examined under three different historical epochs, viz: the period of colonial autocracy and absolutism; the era of constitutional democracy and the period of Presidentialism.2 Hence, this study explores a historical route into the discourse on the attitudinal framework of Nigerians' political thoughts in the postcolonial Nigeria. This is with regards to its developmental stages and progresses in the last 35 years between 1980 and 2015. This study captures the activities of the military and democratic rules as the major leadership in the period under study with emphasis on the second and fourth Republican system of government in Nigeria under the watch of these political parties viz: National Party of Nigeria (NPN), Shehu Shagari (1979-1983) and Peoples' Democratic Party (PDP), Olusegun Obasanjo (1999-2007), Umar Musa Yar'Adua (2007-2010) and Goodluck Jonathan (2007-2015).3 Akin Alao and Adetunji Ojo Ogunyemi, ‘Introduction’, Akin Alao and Adetunji Ojo Ogunyemi (eds.), Contemporary Issues on Nigeria’s Development Trajectory Since 1914 (IleIfe: Obafemi Awolowo University Press, 2020), xiii- xv; B.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal This research examines the pessimists and the optimists' political thoughts in Nigeria between 1980 and 2015 exploring significant individuals within their scope of thought in the areas of the divide and how these thoughts have initiated a divided mindset and attitude in Nigerians in the describing doom and hope. What kept the thoughts afloat or alive in Nigerian space is analysed within the philosophy of these divides in the postcolonial Nigeria as aftermath of decolonisation process. The study employed secondary source of data. The secondary source included books, journal articles and the Internet. The collected data were analysed from a historical perspective. The results showed in the study that there were historical awareness and indications in the Nigerian's space of the thoughts of pessimism and optimism in describing the entity called Nigeria between 1980 and 2015. The study concluded that the postcolonial Nigeria is a description of pessimism and optimism and that this argument will continue to engage each other until an ideal Nigerian's space is achieved in the postcolonial epoch. Conceptual Clarifications Nigerian’s Space Nigerian’s space dates antiquity as far back as 3 million years ago when human evidence was found in Africa with the fact of its evidence at Iwo Eleru in present Ondo State which dated the 9th millennium BC. Nigeria is a formation with more than 200 ethnic societies which came under the British colonial hegemony as an amalgamated entity in 1914.4 Hence, she is a republican state situated in the West Africa and it is bordered to the West by Republics of Ghana and Benin, to the East by Republics of Cameroon and Chad, to the North by Republic of Niger and to the South Gulf of Guinea. She lies between the latitudes 40 North and 140 North and Alao and Ogunyemi, ‘Introduction’, xiii; Adetunji Ojo Ogunyemi, ‘Nigeria: A Review of its History since the Precolonial Times’, Akin Alao and Adetunji Ojo Ogunyemi (eds.), Contemporary Issues on Nigeria’s Development Trajectory Since 1914 (Ile-Ife: Obafemi Awolowo University Press, 2020), 4 4 746 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal longitude 30 and 160 East of the meridian. This implies that Nigeria approximately is 923,000 square kilometers or about 356,000 square miles. The population of Nigeria is about 206 million with a Federal Capital Territory at Abuja, 36 State and 774 sub-components parts.5 Decolonisation Decolonisation is the dimension of political economy activities embarked upon by the colonial powers after the World War II to free her colonies and reabsorbed them into her political hegemony in order to save herself from the severe economic crisis and to acquire economic recovery and development in the postwar era. It is also the process of making efforts for the survival of the colonial masters. It explains the competition for economic space between Africa and the metropolises. Decolonisation represents negotiation about control of the postcolonial political economy. It is a phenomenon in salvaging the primary interest of colonialism of the colonial powers. It is an expensive programme but not with major restructuring or initiative for the colonies.6 Pessimism It is a thought pattern that see worst aspect of a thing and believe that the worst will happen, in this context that Nigeria will collapse and will not hold. In other words, it is an attitude that Nigerian state is not a working entity, it is a dead system on arrival. It is a thought of evil will prevail over good. It is negativity, hopelessness and gloom mindset. Ibid.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Optimism It is an attitude of confidence that all will be well about the future of a system like Nigeria even in the face of threats to her existence when things seems not working. In addition, it is positivism of thought that Nigeria is the best of all best states in the world. The aftermath of Decolonisation in the Description of Nigerian Space: Pessimism and Optimism, 1980s-2015 Taking a leave from 1979 the opening date into the second Republic in postcolonial Nigeria between 1979 and 1983 which gave hope to Nigerian's space after the decades of military rule between 1966 and 1979. Olusegun Obasanjo in 1979 ignited the fire of optimism which ran into the 80s of the last century. Obasanjo was endorsed as the first African military head of State to hand over power to a democratically elected government under the watch of Shehu Shagari. While by 1983 the hope began to dim and the pessimists’ ideology came with the return to the military rule in successions of Muhammad Buhari (1983-1985) and Ibrahim Babangida (1985-1993) and Chinua Achebe's thesis on the ruin description of Nigerian's space surfaced with his work titled, The Trouble with Nigeria. Thereafter, the discourse of ruin and hope kept engaging each other for 35 years as observed in this study. The appearance of Olusegun Obasanjo in 1999 in the journey of the fourth Republic further contested the position of the pessimists' description of Nigerian State. This actions, reactions and counteractions of attitude of Nigerians formed the background to the positive and negative sides to the description of Nigeria in the postcolonial era in this study.7 Alao and Ogunyemi, ‘Introduction’, xiii; Ogunyemi, ‘Nigeria: A Review of its History since the Precolonial Times’, 4; Tunde Babawale, Good Governance, Democracy and Democratic “Best Practices”: Prescription for Nigeria (Lagos: Centre for Black and African Arts and Civilisation, 2007), 11, 14, 19. 7 748 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Pessimism’s Description of Nigerian Space The remote factor into the contemporary idea of pessimism in Nigeria is dated to 1967. This was during the regime of General Yakubu Gowon when the Eastern Region was established as an administrative convenience system and later turned to be an opened wall in the building of the nationhood of Nigeria through the machinery of Colonel Odumegwu Ojukwu. This was in an effort to react to some maladies in the institutional framework of Nigerian State system in the period then. To resolve the problem, the creation of Biafra State was seen as a remedy to the poor leadership and negative stereotypes of Nigeria to her major stakeholders. This agitation by the east was as a result of the political economy situation of Nigeria which gave no hope to the whole but, few individuals who exploited the masses for their own capitalist gains. 8 This opinion of pessimism was further reinstated with Chinua Achebe in 1983 in his work titled, The Trouble with Nigeria barely 13 years after the first movement in the dimension of no hope for Nigerian State because most of the leaders are like old wine in new bottles. He drew the attention of the masses to the pessimistic atmosphere of Nigerian state as a result of maladministration and mismanagement of economic resources of the State by Shehu Shagari’s government. This notion was further reechoed in 2012 by Chinua Achebe in another work titled, There was a Country: A Personal History of Biafra, when Goodluck Jonathan was the President. By 1986, Chu S. P Okongwu observed that Nigeria has huge external debt and he alerted the people of Nigeria as a pessimist in his article, The Nigerian Economy: Being an Anatomy of a Traumatised Economy with some Proposal for Stabilisation, he made a way forward for Nigerian State if the instruction would be followed. This call came during the reign of Ibrahim Babangida. Thus, Obafemi Awolowo’s opinion serves as a bridge to the above opinions, he emphasised political and legal crisis of governance as a catalyst to misrule and 8 Ibid. Ogunyemi, ‘Nigeria: A Review of its History since the Precolonial Times’, 23 749 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal lack of accountability. This opinion is found in his work title, The Travails of Democracy and the Rule of Law in 1987. This still falls under the regime of Ibrahim Babangida.9 The Federal Office of Statistics explains further the pessimism of the socio-economy structure of Nigerian state from 1987 to the middle 1990s by expressing a disturbing picture of Nigerian federation criticising the government’s economy reform programme called the Structural Adjustment Programme (SAP), creation of States and Local Governments Areas to manage the fiscal crisis in Nigeria.10 By 2014, John A. A. Ayoade, Adeoye Akinsanya and Olatunde Ojo opine that Nigeria has no hope in their work titled, Nigerian: Descent into Anarchy and Collapse?11 The above pessimists’ thought in the political arena of Nigeria revealed selfishness through party deflections with no agenda for the masses except for themselves. The leadership in Nigeria has not gotten it right and cannot lead Nigeria anywhere. In substantiating their notion of pessimism these factors below were used as argument in favour and to further enriched the hopelessness of the Nigerian state because of its relationship and understanding of the political economy consciousness in the contemporary times. The arguments include:Constitutional power has always been from the centre rather than from the components between 1980 and 2015. This has not given an inclusive consciousness to Nigerians as major stakeholder in their state affairs. These components made decisions which ought to be recognised but such recommendations were just for sighting not for the real business of doing the needful among the citizens of Nigeria. Therefore, individuals with opinion that no hope for Nigeria used this as a base for argument which replicates itself in different movements such as MASSOB, NDPVF, OPC, Boko Haram and deadly politics through vote buying and coercion among others.12 In addition, Alao and Ogunyemi, ‘Introduction’, xv, xvii Ibid.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal the economic factor has been one of the propelling factors in decisions making as regards amalgamation of Nigerian space since 1861 for the exploitation of the people colonised and for the balanced budget which has shown injustice in the administration of the protectorates and division to the level of regions and State creations. The driving force has been economy, with the understanding of robbing the south to feed the north, and there was no efforts to plow back such contributions’ profit into the south, the people felt it is better Nigeria seize to exist and the south is at peace.13Administrative convenience as a unitary and centralised state was in operation from 1914 to 1939. This structure made the northern protectorate to be an entity with 12 provinces and the southern protectorate was divided into two; western and eastern with 11 provinces. By 1943, it was further divided into administrative divisions 39 and 44 respectively and by 1946 there exist 23 provinces and 83 divisions. By 1953 the provinces were grouped into Northern, Western and Eastern regions with an addition of Mid-west region in 1963. This structure ran with little modification till 1967. This administrative convenience revealed the inequality in the Nigerian State and encouraged the attitude of pessimism in the period under review.14 Dissolution of regional system structure by Gowon in 1967 and the creation of 12 State was a check against ruin of Nigerian space. Northern region was fragmented into 10 states of 41 divisions while eastern, western and mid-west regions were split into three states with 55 divisions. This is an unequal arrangement which strengthened the hopelessness in Nigerian State.15 General Murtala Muhammed in 1976 created an additional 7 states and collapsed the 96 division into 301 Local Government Areas structure and the north benefited more from this decisions while the south were at the receiving end.16 The regime of General Ibrahim Babangida Ogunyemi, ‘Nigeria: A Review of its History since the Precolonial Times’, 16-17, 21, 26 Ibid.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal between 1985 and 1991 had the highest creation of States and Local Government Areas in Nigerian space in the period under review from 1980s and 2015: 1987-1990 3 States, 1991 9 States. By 1996, General Sanni Abacha created additional 5 states making total of 36 States and 769 Local Government Areas with 774 sub-component part including 5 area councils at Abuja. All these administrative convenience were like adding salt to injury, as the problem of injustice in the distribution of the state resources were not solved the national questions were not treated clinically by the political actors.17 Nigeria has not stopped practicing colonial legacies consciously or unconsciously. Nigeria has not been able to look inward and find solution to her own problem in all spheres of life ranging from politics to social life.18 Most of the promulgated laws were not working in sustaining the Nigerian State as it affects waste management, pollution, oil spills and oil pipeline vandalisation, deforestation, erosion and flood, among others. For instance, the supervising agency for environmental protection, Nigerian Environmental Standard Regulation Agency (NESRES) has not done the needful in knitting Nigerian's space as an entity of hope in the period under review.19 Olanisebe and Lateju opine that Ariri-Chidomere describes Nigeria as an artificial creation, by implication, it is not meant to last. It will soon disintegrate and the marriage will fall and members of the union will divorce one another. According to the duo, marriage by convenience is not providing hope for Nigerian State. Corroborating the above Isiramen avers that Nigerian State is a volatile mix which some day must fail.20The religious factor has put Nigerian state on a divide rather than unity, the pessimists see this as a signal for Nigerian ruin. Ariri-Chidomere observes that the marriage of Ibid. Ogunyemi, ‘Nigeria: A Review of its History since the Precolonial Times’, 25.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Christianity and Islam is not a good match for Nigerian State. For example when the Sharia law was agitated for between 1976 and 1978 which finally had a headway in 1979 with the inclusion of Sharia Court in the fourth Republic's constitution. This gave an explanation that the postcolonial Nigeria situation encouraged loyalty of individuals first to religion and ethnic divides at the expense of the whole State. Hence, religion has been used to further polarised Nigerian people. The inclusion of Nigeria into the Organisation of Islamic Countries (OIC) has also tolled the route of ruin for Nigerian State which was perfected by Ibrahim Babangida regime although initiated by Yakkubu Gowon's regime.21 This action has continued to generate heat and violence between 1980 and 2015 viz: Kano (1980), Maiduguri and Kaduna (1982), Yola (1984), Gombe (1985), Funtua (1993), Kafanchan-Kaduna (1987), Zaria (1988), Bauchi (1991), Kano (1991), Zagonkataf-Kaduna (1992), Kastina (2000), Jos (2001 and 2004), Onitsha (2006), Jos (2008), Bauchi (2009) and Boko Haram insurgencies (2009-2015).22 It is pretty clear that at independent with the application of 1960 constitution and first Republic constitution no mention of the word God not until 1979 and 1999 constitutions that birth the second and fourth Republic respectively, these constitutions made provisions for the mention of the word God. This has also been replicated in the National Anthem and Pledge. This religiopolitics phenomenon has since 1914 being there. This religious factor made Wole Soyinka to observe that Religion is the enemy of Nation building because it drives exclusion and not inclusion.23 Optimism’s Description of Nigerian Space At the inauguration on the 29th May, 2007, President, Umar Musa Yar’Adua encourages Nigerian to march with him into the age of restoration by working together to restore the lost Ibid.

The admonition of the optimist is that Nigerians should have positive mindset and they should work for the benefit of the State by moving amass to taking her on the path of greatness through revolutionary change activities. Nigerian efforts in the larger world revealed an atmosphere of optimism because of Nigerians’ contributions to creativity and innovations in the global economy which is top notch, if applied in Nigeria with the right attitude then she would be bettered for it. Olusegun Obasanjo is one of the optimists who sees hope in Nigerian State way back in 1989 when others saw ruin, he suggested integration of Nigerian people for political inclusion and economic development. He understood the effect of the political economy on the attitude of Nigerians which at all times stares at the existence of Nigerian State as a political entity in the communities of nation as an existence. Hence, the likes of Hyacinth Ajaeghu, B.J. St. Mathew-Daniels, Okon Edet Uya, A.B.

This factor has helped strengthened the optimists thought in the description of Nigerian State between 1980 and 2015.27 Education is another factor recommended by the optimist that seeking knowledge always is power and by this the mental capacity of Nigerians are equipped and strengthened for the kind of change Nigerians want by critically analysing issues and situations as it appear.28Participatory democracy is used here to argue further the hope for Nigeria, Nigerian should come out and do the needful, enough of putting the ball in the court of bad leaders only. Nigerian should stop complaining and being lackadaisical, Nigerians should keep a watch on the politics and stop seeing politics as a dirty game which has been used to deprive Nigerians of their benefits between 1980s and 2015. This participation is to be rooted in the family system not by queuing behind the politicians and individuals who want to use and drop them but mobilise for a better Nigeria.29 Resilience and Consistence is the power to giving Nigeria hope even when Nigerians leaders failed in their efforts in changing thing because the system is saturated with bad people. Nigerian should keep at it and forge ahead with the attitude of Nigeria must be rescued from the bad leadership by contributing to its maintenance as structural functional system.30Doing it right is another instrument in making Nigeria to live as a sovereign state in the committee of nations.

Learn the art of good leadership and lead right and through this there would be positive outcomes for the overall benefits of Nigerians. Adding to the above the optimists believe that it is a prepared leader that can do it and a transformational leadership is what Nigeria needs, this has been the thought since 1980 to 2015. The optimists are of the opinion that Nigerian are creative and are self-made because of their level of creativity and innovations. With this creativity Nigerians can achieve more in order for Nigeria to exist and perform maximally. Therefore, Nigerian should keep at being creative always as she forges ahead with rays of hope.31 Conclusion This paper has revealed two major sects of Nigerians based on the political thoughts of pessimism and optimism. In other words, those who are negative and disintegrative and those who are positive and integrative as a balanced description of Nigerian State in the period under review. The discourse on the pessimists and optimists thinking in Nigerian’s space has revealed the two sides of a coin which cannot be separated from each other. These two perspectives serve as a correctional and checkmating mechanism to putting Nigeria on the right footing as a corporate existence. The thoughts are good for Nigerian system to survive. Those with the thought that Nigeria is done for and those who see Nigeria coming strong are both striving directly or indirectly for a better and strong Nigeria. The study has observed that when the maladies are well taken care of the pessimists will become optimist automatically because the system will be inclusive and everyone will be integrated pragmatically into a Nigeria with nationhood although diversified with cultures and orientations. 31 Babawale, Good Governance, Democracy and Democratic “Best Practices”, 12. 756 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction This study attempts to explore the trajectory of human condition and knowledge in the Baptist Medical Centre Ogbomoso by reviewing selected individuals with the incident of the idea ‘first’ in their existence in the Baptist Mission’s medical evangelism in Ogbomoso between 1907 and 1997.32 Hence, four selected individuals who possessed both material and spiritual human condition and knowledge are examined in this paper using phenomena: appearance as they were and noumena; things in themselves (self-consciousness). The human situation and information about them is not devoid of God (religion) consequently, man and religion walk together in existence.33 In addition, human experience is the ultimate source and justification of all forms knowledge. This implies that, every man is different from another due to the way he thinks and behaves in his environment based on time and space factors.34 Therefore, these selected individuals are cultures on their own though of different backgrounds and orientations but with a common being, human condition and knowledge of ‘first’ in their distinct cultures in the activities of the Baptist Medical Centre Ogbomoso (BMCO) between 1907and 1997.35 Human existence is germane to historical reconstruction of any kind be it political, social, economic and medical, among others. In the light of human existence in a space which is time bound with historical evidences, this research attempt considering the existence of selected individuals who have showcased themselves as ‘first’ in the history of Baptist Medical Centre Ogbomoso (BMCO) between 1907 and 1997.36 Daniel Adedosu Gbadero, ‘Ogbomoso: The Citadel of Baptist Medical Mission in Nigeria’ in Daniel Folorunso Oroniran (ed.)

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal This study explores these significant individuals within the medical mission of the Baptists exposing their biographical experiences and contributions to humanity as a form of knowledge which is buried in human memories. The study employed both primary and secondary sources of data. The primary source included oral interviews with purposively selected informants and archival materials like Baptist papers, memoirs and diaries, annual reports, magazines and other relevant records collected from Baptist repositories in Ogbomoso. The four selected individuals in Baptist Medical Centre Ogbomoso in this study are: George Green, Ruth May Kersey, Adeoye Adeniyi and Peter Olusola Elemile. This selection is based on the fact that these individuals were Baptist Mission’s medical missionaries who were first in their respective culture and played significant roles in the growth and development of the Baptist medical facilities in Ogbomoso between 1907 and 1997. The secondary source included books, journal articles and the Internet. The collected data were analysed from a historical perspective. The results showed in the study that there were historical consciousness and suggestions in the Baptist Medical Centre Ogbomoso between 1907 and 1997. The study concluded that the colonial and postcolonial experiences and memories of these selected individuals cannot be underemphasised in the routes to human condition and knowledge in the Baptist Mission’s enterprise in Ogbomoso. Conceptual Clarifications First The concept the ‘First’ in this article is a form of human condition and knowledge which is termed phenomena; things as they appeared in human space. In other words, it is a common set of circumstantial appearance of man as a historical existence in space-time.37 Hence, the appearance of the idea ‘First’ at different times in the history of man most especially in the history of the Baptist Medical Centre Ogbomoso (BMCO) was a systematic reality in existence as it explains these dimensions viz.: Horizontal Auto-Transcendence38 and Vertical AutoTranscendence.39 This human condition and knowledge is applied in this research as a result of the appearance of significant individuals in history with distinct and unique impact on humanity in the medical space. Therefore, first as a condition and knowledge is the coming before all J.V.L. Casserly, ‘Some Contemporary Beliefs’ I.

On this justification of the ‘first’ as human condition and knowledge; statement of understanding, accepted saying, definition and assumption is the Baptist Medical Centre Ogbomoso (BMCO) examined. By implication, the ‘first’ have carved a niche which was ‘formally accepted human condition and assumption’ about the being of appearance and consciousness in the activities of the Baptist Medical facility in Ogbomoso in the period under review.44 Baptist Medical Centre Ogbomoso (BMCO) Baptist Medical Centre Ogbomoso is an idea explaining the contributions of the nationals to growth and development of medical mission in Ogbomoso. It is also an expansion in services delivery and the amalgamation of three (3) initial independent medical institutions in Ogbomoso viz.: Baptist Hospital Ogbomoso (1907), Kersey Children Home (1926) and Leprosy Camp (Health Service) (1930s) which were coordinated differently until the introduction BMCO as a coordinating entity of the Baptist Mission’s medical facilities in Ogbomoso in 1980s.45 However, the idea of the Baptist Medical Centre Ogbomoso has since expanded by incorporating other facilities viz.: School of Nursing, Educational services and financial institution, among others.46 40 Definition of First by Dictionary.com Definition of First by Merriam Webster 42 It denotes foremost, pioneer, highest, introductory, primary, beginning, opening and principal. 43 Ibid.

Hence, appearances, memories and experiences are the universal judgment for human relational activities to space, time and action as it was engaged and interrogated in the Baptist Medical Centre Ogbomoso in the 20thcentury.47 George Green: The First Baptist Medical Missionary and Medical Superintendent, 1907-1944 It is worthy to note that George Green was born in London on the 26th July, 1872 by George Green and Charlotte Steadman Green. He encounter Christ at the age of 12 at a revival meeting held on the 4th November, 1884 when he became born again. This corroborates the statement of Socrates that one must aspire to know oneself. According to Socrates he who knows himself knows his Lord. This attitude led George Green to be baptised into full membership of the Upton Baptist Chapel in 1885 at age 13. In addition, he was inflicted with influenza in 1895 which made him to be admitted in the Montreal General Hospital. He was cared and treated by the Reeds, member of Upton Baptist Chapel and got recuperated in the home of another church family member. This compassionate care he received from these kind people planted the seed of medical mission which got germinated when he was enrolled into the world of medical missions as a Medical Doctor. This medical mission assignment made him in 1906 to complete his 18 months non-remunerative internship training at St. Vincent de Paul’s Hospital, Norfolk.48 He was ordained into the gospel ministry of Christ on the 26th November, 1906. He and his wife, Lydia were married at Park Avenue Baptist Church, Norfolk, on the 9th January, 1907. This newly wedded couple went directly from the church to the wharf to board the steamer from Norfolk to Richmond. They left Richmond for New York on the 17th January, 1907.

They arrived in Lagos on the 4th March, 1907 and finally in Ogbomoso on 18th March, 1907.49 Consequently, his rebirth and spiritual encounter and the medical training further led to unprecedented action of his movement to Africa, West Africa, Nigeria and Ogbomoso respectively. The Foreign Mission Board (FMB) of the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) appointed him, the first medical missionary and superintendent to Africa and by extension Ogbomoso. His arrival in Ogbomoso made him to encounter his first patient, a little girl (Aina) who spurred the chain reactions that led to creation and establishment of the Baptist Hospital Ogbomoso 1907 and Baptist Medical Centre Ogbomoso years after. Aina was about four years old, when the Greens arrived in Ogbomoso. She had severe burns and burns contractures that had caused significant deformity to one of her legs. The fame of George Green and his new hospital in Ogbomoso soon spread far and wide in the existence of Baptist Medical Centre Ogbomoso (BMCO) in the 20th century. The Baptist Hospital Ogbomoso grew in leaps and bounds and George Green, the first Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) medical missionary to Nigeria, reported to the Foreign Mission Board (FMB) that, ‘Our work in Ogbomoso has been three-fold in character; Evangelistic, Educational, and Medical.’ In other words, it included the work of the Churches, Schools and Dispensaries.50 The people he worked with as the first medical missionary and superintendent in the Baptist Mission’s medical facility in Ogbomoso included Lydia William Green, Basil Lee Lockett, Mary Ellen Caver, Mary Reeks McCormick,51 Ruth Mary McCormick, S.G.

Before she had the encounter that further shaped her life’s work in Ogbomoso in 1926. Mrs Green was quoted in an article published by the Women’s Missionary Union (WMU): ‘Ruth had lived in our home when she first came to Nigeria and I could almost tell what she was thinking as she looked at the little black baby whose mother had died and at the father with such pleading in his eyes. Somehow he had managed to keep the baby alive for nearly two weeks and the loving heart of the missionary was touched. She told the father to leave the baby and she would do what she could. The Africans knew nothing about artificial feeding and she knew the baby would die and she reached out her arms for the child….’64 The statement above from Mrs Green summarised the contribution and the creation of a single lady in search for authentic life as a being there in the Baptist Medical Centre Ogbomoso.

The aforementioned were not directly related to medicine, his career as Medical Doctor started with the Baptist Hospital, Ogbomoso January, 1963 and withdrew his service for further study in September, 1966.76 The reason for his withdrawal of service was because of the commonwealth award he got in 1966 to study Paediatrics at the Post-Graduate level in the United Kingdom. This opportunity drew him into the Post-Graduate research studies at Sheffield University and the Institute of Child Health, Great Ormond Street, London. He received the Doctor of Medicine (MD) of University of London, 1972. He became research fellow, University of London and University of Ibadan, 1967-1972.

He worked at Ile Abiye Hospital in Ondo State between 1976 and 1978. He left for the United Kingdom in 1978 and returned in 1983 and continued his career in the Baptist Mission’s medical service at the Baptist Hospital, Ogbomoso till 1997 when he retired from active service. He was the first indigenous medical superintendent in the Baptist Medical Centre between 1984 and 1997.84The people he worked with medical superintendent in the Baptist Medical Centre Ogbomoso included Jack Eldon Tolar, Bill Norman, Martha Jordan Gililand, William Carter Garventer, William Jackson Williams, Howard Douglas Mcamey, Margret Richardson, Daniel Adedosu Gbadero, Grace A.

George Green was a medical doctor of the Foreign Mission Board (FMB) of the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) to Ogbomoso. This opportunity given to him by the SBC helped him in a way to create his being, consequently historicising himself as the 82 Ibid.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal pioneer medical missionary and superintendent to of the Baptist Hospital Ogbomoso through the evidence of the establishment of the hospital in Ogbomso in 1907. This experience had outlived him in the whole world especially in Africa and Ogbomoso to be precise he was seen as the first embodiment of medical mission in Nigeria.87 Another contribution and creation by George Green was that he was declared the father of the Baptist Medical Ministry in Nigeria which picked its root from the activities at Baptist Hospital Ogbomoso. This was because every other activity picked it activities from him as far Nigeria and Baptist medical evangelism was concerned in Africa.88In addition, Ruth May Kersey contributed and created the Kersey Children’s Home (KCH) through the help of the Foreign Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention, USA, in 1926. Hence, the historical fact about the establishment of the kersey Home was rather dramatic. Motherless Children Home, Ogbomoso was founded 1926 by a missionary nurse Ruth May Kersey, six years after her commissioning to Ogbomoso.89 It began in 1926 following the admission of the first motherless child, a girl (Emma), into the Baptist Hospital, Ogbomoso. The father had arrived at the facility carrying a set of twins who had been born in a distant village, the mother of the babies had died soon after delivery of the twins. The father carried the two babies to the hospital in a calabash tray. One of the twins died soon after their arrival at the hospital. With adequate healthcare and treatment given to the set of twins, one of them, a girl survived the crisis. The prominent nurse who played the role in caring for the twins was Ruth May Kersey. Thereafter, many more motherless children were brought to the hospital. The primary responsibility of caring for these children fell squarely on the shoulder of Ruth May Kersey.90 Motherless and malnourished babies’ care programmes through the use of artificial milk got from plant (Soya) have been in continuum since the founding of it in 1926.91 KCH building was constructed next to the Baptist Hospital, Ogbomoso and it housed 87 Interview, Solomon Ademola Ishola, former General Secretary of the Nigerian Baptist Convention and Senior Lecturer, Nigerian Baptist Theological Seminary, Ogbomoso, 19th October, 2017. 88 Interview, S.

In other words, he merged all the components facilities of the Baptist Mission’s medical services in Ogbomoso into one for easy administration in 1980s when he was the Medical Superintendent. This was further consolidated to be managed by single Board of Trustees as against three board committees as it was presented by Adeniyi Adeoye in a report to the Nigerian Baptist Convention (NBC) during Convention-in-session in the 1960s.94 Another contribution and creation was in the achieving of quality service these individuals applied the Principle of Non-Maleficence which implies ‘Do no harm.’ It also means that they will willingly refrain from doing any injury or wrong.’ All these selected people refrained from doing harm to anybody who came their way for treatment or healthcare services.95 Health challenges recorded in Ogbomoso viz: Influenza pandemic of 1918, 1957 and 1968, recurrent Yellow Fever, Cholera 1971 and 1979, Measles, Meningitis and Smallpox among others revealed the creation by selected individuals to see to it that the people prosper both in health and in mind.96 Corroborating the above it was noted that George Green treated over 5,000 patients during his stay in Ogbomoso, record has it that, in his first year he treated over 2,000 patients in Ogbomoso97 More so, he initiated the construction of water well system in Ogbomoso in 1907, when he discovered the town had no good water system to enhance the health of the people. This became a strong contribution towards the health of the people since Salevan, ‘Altruism in Action: The Southern Baptist Nurse Missionary in Nigeria, MidTwentieth Century’, 23-25. 93 Ibid.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 1907 to 1997.98 Many people were healed of their diseases due to the health facility introduced by the Greens in 1907. By 1923 thousands upon thousands had benefitted from the facility and it was one of the contributions and creation of the Greens to healthcare system in Ogbomoso. Also, quality service came to light by sourcing for fund to build a big hospital that could accommodate increasing patients in the Baptist Hospital, Ogbomoso. The sum of Seven Thousand pounds was raised for that purpose in 1910, by 1917, Three Thousand five hundred dollars was raised for expansion of the health facility. By 1919, Seventy Five Thousand dollars was raised for the same purpose. By 1923, the facility was set for commissioning and the dream of the Greens came through.99 He left indelible footprint in the three continents; Europe his place of birth continent, America his adopted continent and Africa his home continent.100 George was part of the medical committee of the Christian Council of Nigeria (CCN) which advised the colonial government periodically on medical programmes and policies that guided the transformation of the people’s health.101 He trained nurses to help reduced the burden of the work on him at least till when Ruth May Kersey emerged in 1920s.102 Elemile initiated and started Midwifery services at the centre and made part of the school of nursing course of study to include Midwifery for good enhancement of the beauty of the centre in 1993.103Also, improvement on the take home package of the staff was another contribution and creation by Elemile. Nationals who were indigenous staff were not included in the payroll by the FMB and this arrangement was not too good for sustainability of the integrity of the centre as upheld by the missionaries due to quality staff. To achieve this, Elemile had to increase the pay of the staff a little to measure up with what was obtained with other medical facilities in town.104 To sustain this welfare package, Randa Community Bank in 1995 was initiated by Elemile, now Randalpha Microfinance Bank to generate Pension Fund. Trading company was established in 1995, it was named GORAH.105 It was to generate income for the centre for smooth running of 98 Ibid.

This in a way was a contribution and creation that Nigerian would access salvation in Christ through the instrumentality of Baptist Medical Centre Ogbomoso (BMCO). George Green pursued this creativity vigorously and vehemently. 107 In his report to Foreign Mission Board (FMB), he stated, ‘our work in Ogbomoso had been of three fold in character (Evangelistic, Educational and Medicals).’ It was the medicals, he gave his life to between 1907 and 1944.108 His proficiency in medicine and surgery created and enhanced the value of his services and multiply his usefulness as a soul winner in Africa. This explained the power of his skill as a factor for a creating being. Also, Kersey had considered foreign mission work every import ever since she was a small child and felt that it was a life work. As she wrote in one of her notes, Christ said, ‘Go into the world and preach the gospel to every creature…I believe that was meant for me.’ Jesus also said, ‘Heal the Sick’ When asked if she preferred a special field, she wrote, Africa…I have always felt that it is the least desirable from a personal viewpoint. She also noted that she would desire medical missionary service and wrote again of her three (3) years of nurse’s training at the Retreat for the Sick.109 More so, Adeoye corroborated the above statement concerning creating Christian community that, health ministry was a call to serve Jesus Christ who went about doing good and part of his good deeds was this healing of a thing and resolved to do good to humanity and most especially Ogbomoso people. This statement corroborated Adeniyi’s contribution to as the first Nigerian medical doctor at the Baptist Hospital, Ogbomoso between 1963 and 1966. He served only for short time but labored ‘creditably, maintaining the high standard of work, diligence and honesty which the missionary doctors have consistently maintained.’110 Finally, they all contributed and created a historic human relationship within the medical and community space which cannot be under emphasised in this discourse. This level of human relation out lived them in the Baptist included; G for George Green, O for Olatunde Olawoyin, R for Ruth Mary Kersey, Adeoye Adeniyi and Hezel Moor 106 Interview, Amao 2nd June, 2018; Interview, Gabriel Akanmu, Account Officer, Bowen University Teaching Hospital, Ogbomoso, 27th May, 2018. 107 Ibid.

Çünkü Türkiye transit göçün değişmeyen coğrafyası olmayı sürdürmeye devam etmekte. Ancak 2011 yılından bu yana eksilmeyen hatta artan mülteci sayısı bize geçici göçmenlerin zamanla kalıcı göçmenler haline geldiğini gösteriyor. TUİK’in son verilerine göre gelen göçmenlerin büyük kısmını çocuk ve gençler oluşturuyor. Bu nedenle Türkiye ilk başta göçmen eğitim politikasını da ilk sırıya koymalıdır. Çünkü gelen göçmenlerin entegrasyon olabilmeleri için göçmenlere uygun hem eğitim planı şart. Bu sebeple çalışmamızda göçmen eğitim politikasına değindik ve örnek olarak Afgan göçmenleri aldık. Çünkü son on yıldır Türkiye’de Suriyeli göçmenler fazla ilgi gösterilmesiyle azınlık olarak algılanan ancak son iki yılda gelen Afgan göçmenleri sayı olarak Suriyelileri geçmiş durumda. Bu çalışmada Afganistan’ının göç sorununu ve Türkiye’de Afgan göçmenlere karşı uygulanan göçmen eğitim politikasını ele aldık.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal MIGRATION POLICIES IN EDUCATION, IMMIGRANT, ASYLUM SEEKER AND REFUGEE PROBLEMS: THE CASE OF AFGHAN IMMIGRANTS Abstract In recent years, the issue of migration has been considered one of the important issues in Turkey. Because Turkey continues to be the unchanging geography of transit migration. However, the number of refugees, which has not decreased or even increased since 2011, shows us that temporary migrants have become permanent migrants over time. According to the latest data of TUIK, most of the incoming migrants are children and young people. For this reason, Turkey should also put its migrant education policy first. Because for incoming immigrants to be integrated, an education plan suitable for immigrants is necessary. For this reason, we touched upon the immigrant education policy in our study and took Afghan immigrants as an example. Because Syrian immigrants have been perceived as a minority in Turkey for the last ten years with a lot of attention, but Afghan immigrants who have arrived in the last two years have surpassed Syrians in number. In this study, we discussed the migration problem of Afghanistan and the immigrant education policy applied against Afghan immigrants in Turkey. Keywords: Afghanistan, Turkey, Afghan Refugees, Migration, Migrants. 774 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Göç Kavramı Göç teriminin kavramına literatürde birçok tanım bulunmaktadır. Onların biri Durugönül’e (Durugönül,1997) göre yaşanan coğrafi ve sosyal-kültürel çevreden ayrılıp başka coğrafi ve sosyal-kültürel çevreye yerleşmesidir. Burada yerleşmek kalıcı süreklilik anlamını taşımaktadır. Göç, çok boyutlu bir olaydır. Yasal, eğitsel, kültürel ve psikolojik sorunları da beraberinde getirir (Tezcan, 2000). Göç, Türk Dil Kurumuna göre; “ekonomik, toplumsal, siyasi sebeplerle bireylerin veya toplulukların bir ülkeden başka bir ülkeye, bir yerleşim yerinden başka bir yerleşim yerine gitme işi, taşınma, hicret, muhaceret” olarak tanımlanmıştır. (Erişim, TDK 2020, https://sozluk.gov.tr). Göç kavramının kökeni ise 19. yüzyılına dayanmaktadır ve günümüzde literatüre geçen göç tanımları Avrupa’dan Amerika’ya doğru gerçekleşen göç sürecini tanımlama ve analiz etme sonucunda ortaya çıkmıştır (Öner vd., 2012). Göç Türleri Birçok çalışmada göç ile ilgili farklı sınıflandırmalar bulunmaktadır. Örneğin William Peterson, gücü 5 başlığa ayırırken, Fichter ise göç türlerini sadece ikiye ayırmıştır. William Peterson’a göre: Göç İlkel göç Kontrollü göç Serbest göç Zorunlu göç Yönetilmiş göç Fichter’e göre: Göç Zorunlu Göçler Gönüllü Göçler Bunların dışında iç göç, dış göç, beyin göçü, işçi göçü, kitlesel göç ve doğal afetler nedeniyle oluşan geçici göç gibi olayların çeşitliğine göre göç türleri farklılık gösterebilir. İç Göçler Ülke sınırlarında gerçekleşen göçlere iç göç denilmektedir (Sağlam, 2006) ve kendi içinde de farklılık göstermektedir. Onlar, kırdan kente, kentten kıra, kırdan kıra, kentten kente olarak bilinmektedir. Türkiye’de iç göç, hızla gelişen sanayileşme süreciyle birlikte daha kırdan kentte olarak seyredilmektedir. Buna Türkiye’nin birçok boşaltılmış yani nüfusu tamamen göç etmiş köyler örnek olabilir. Ancak son zamanda büyük ilgi gören organik yaşam akımı nedeniyle birçok insan büyük şehirler yerine köyleri, kırları tercih etmeyi başlaması boş kalmış köyler 775 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal için tekrardan yaşam katmaktadır. Bir diğer etken olarak da ulusal ve küresel ekonomik krizler nedeniyle son yıllarda büyük şehirlerde seyredilen barınma sorunları kentlerden kırsala ya da İstanbul, Ankara, İzmir ve Antalya gibi şehirlerden başka şehirlere iç göç gözlemlenmektedir. Dış Göçler Bireylerin/toplumların sürekli ikamet ettiği ülkeden siyasi, dini, ekonomik ya da savaş̧, iç çatışma gibi nedenler ile ayrılarak kalıcı/ geçici süreyle yeni bir ikamet oluşturmak amacıyla gerçekleştirdikleri göç̧ faaliyetlerine dış̧ göç̧ denmektedir (Günay vd., 2017). Bir ülkenin gelişmesinde nitelikli insan gücü̈ önemlidir. Ülkelerin gelişme surecinde çeşitli alanlarda uzmanlaşmış̧ bireylere ihtiyaç̧ duyulmaktadır, bu alanlarının uzmanı olan nitelikli insanların göç̧ ülkeleri için büyük bir kayıptır (Başaran, 1972). Türkiye dış göç olarak sadece göç alan değil göç veren ülkelerden biridir ve aynı zamanda geçici olarak Türkiye’ye yerleşen ve daha sonra başka ülkeye göç eden göçmen sayısı da çoktur. Bu açıdan göçmenler için Türkiye transit ülke olarak görülmektedir. Zorunlu Göç Zorunlu göç kavramın karşılığını birçok araştırmacı ele almıştır ve genel olarak zorunlu göç dediğimizde nedeni ne olursa olsun insanların isteği olmadan bir yerden ikinci yere taşınmasıdır diyebiliriz. Bu nedenlerin çeşitlerine göre de zorunlu göçü sınıflandırabiliriz. Doğal afetler, beklenmedik savaşlar, terör, eğitim, sosyal entegrasyon, sağlık, iç siyaset gibi nedenler zorunlu göçün en büyük nedenidir. Bunlara itici ve zorlayıcı nedenler diyebiliriz. Türkiye’de kendi sınırlarında olsun ya da sınır dışından olsun bu tür gölere fazla maruz kalmıştır. Özellikle 2000’li yıllardan itibaren zaman zaman işsizlik, yoksulluk, terör, doğal afetler nedeniyle zorunlu iç göçler yaşanmaktadır. Örneğin 6 Şubat 2023’te Kahramanmaraş merkezli Türkiye’nin Hatay, Gaziantep, Malatya, Diyarbakır, Kilis, Şanlıurfa, Adıyaman, Osmaniye, Adana ve Elâzığ bölgesinde Türkiye Cumhuriyeti’nin en büyük depremi yaşanmıştır. Açıklanmış resmi rakamlara göre 50 783 kişi hayatını kaybederken 115 353 kişi yaralanmıştır. Belirtilen bölgelerde olağanüstü hâl ilan edilerek yaklaşık 2,8 milyon insan zorunlu göç etmiştir. Deprem bölgesinin büyüklüğü nedeniyle yaklaşık 13 milyon insan etkilendiği belirtilmekte. Zorunlu bir şekilde deprem bölgelerinden geçici ve kalıcı olarak Türkiye’nin güvenli bölgelerine göç yaşanmıştır. Türkiye’de deprem nedeniyle yaşanan zorunlu göçün bir kısmını geçici göç olarak değerlendirebiliriz. Çünkü deprem sonrası alınan kakarlar niteliğinde deprem bölgesindeki vatandaşları güvenli bölgelere, depremden etkilenmeyen bölgelere taşıma yapıldı. Depremzedeler sadece yakınların bulundukları bölgelere değil hükümetin belirlemiş oldukları illere yerleştirildi. Olağanüstü hâl ilan edilerek güvenli bölgelerdeki KYK yurtlarına 776 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yerleştirildi. Deprem sonrası deprem bölgelerine konteynerlerin hazırlanması bittikten sonra geçici olarak KYK yurtlarında kalan vatandaşlar deprem bölgelerine geri döndü. Böylece, geçici göç yaşandı. Uluslararası boyutta ise dünya siyasi gündemler nedeniyle özellikle Suriye’de ve Irak’ta yaşanan ve yaşanmakta olan iç savaş nedeniyle zorunlu göç alan konumuna geçmiştir ve son yıllarda Afganistan’dan ve İran’dan da çok diyecek kadar göç almaya başladığını belirtebiliriz. Afganistan’ın Yakın Tarih Göç Sorunu Afganistan’ın iç göç sorunu en çok XX yüzyılın 70 yıllarında 2 yıl süren kuraklık nedeniyle çıkmıştır. Özellikle bu dönemde köylüler zor zamanlar geçirmişlerdir, kuraklık tarların yanmasına ve hasattın azalmasına hatta sıfıra inmesine neden olmuştur. Hasat azalınca, ülke çapında hayvan besleme ve yetiştirme yok olmaya başlamıştır. Özellikle Kuzey-Batı Afganistan (Gerat, Badgis, Maymana, Gor) ve Kuzey-Doğu Afganistan (Badaşan) gibi bölgeleri çok zarar görerek halk arasında açlık başlamıştır. Böylece yüz binlerce köylü tarlalarını ucuz satarak büyük şehirlere göç etmiş (Слинкин М.Ф., 2001). Uluslararası boyutta ise Birleşmiş Milletler Mülteciler Yüksek Komiserliği (UNHCR) verilerine göre Afganistan dünyadaki en büyük göç veren beş ülkeden biridir. Hatta Suriye’de iç savaş çıkmadan önce mülteci sayısıyla ilk sırada yer alıyordu. Çünkü Afganistan’daki göç sorununun temeli, özellikle uluslararası boyutta XVIII yüzyılların başlarına kadar dayanıyor. Kayıtlara göre Afganlar en çok İran’a ve Pakistan’a göç etmiştir. Nedenlerin biri coğrafi yakınlık, etnik-kültürel bağlar ve dini benzerlikler olmuştur (Abbasi-Shavaz M. J vd., 2015). En büyük dış göçlerin biri 1973 yılında gerçekleşen darbe sonrasıdır. Bu darbe sonrası ülke büyük ölçüde beyin göçü vermiştir. Onlar, üst düzey askeri rütbeliler, yüksek ve orta düzey makamlı devlet memurları. İlk gidenler (1973 yılında) Avrupa ülkelerine ve ABD’ye kaçmıştır. İkinci grup gidenler (1975-1978) ağırlıklı Pakistan’a ve İran’a göç etmiştir. Böylece, ülkede daha iç savaş çıkmadan mülteci ve göçmen sayısı yükselmiştir. 1978 yılında gerçekleşen ve Afganistan’ın tüm illerini iç savaştan sonra ise iç göç ve dış göç inanılmaz derecede artarak ülkede en büyük ulusal ve sosyal-kültürel sorun haline gelmiştir. İç göç sayısının belirlemek zor olmuştur. Çünkü 1980 ve 1990 yılları arasındaki iç göçün yönü sürekli değiştiği kayıt tutmak imkânsız kalmış. Örneğin ilk başlarda insanlar güvenlik açısından orduya yakın olmak amaçlı köylerden büyük şehirlere akın etmiştir. Ancak büyük şehirlerde farklı siyasi görüşlere sahip grupların çatışmaları göç yönünü tersine şehirlerden kırsala yönlendirmiştir. Birleşmiş Milletler Örgütünün verilerine göre 1987 yılında iç göç sayısı yaklaşık 2 milyon insandı. Özellikle başkentte göçmen sayısı çok yüksekti. Resmi verilere göre 777 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 1978 yılı başkent sınırları içinde 650 000 kişi ederken, 1979 yılında 931 418 insan, 1980 yılında 992 286, 1981 yılında 1 057 124 insan, 1982 yılında 1 126 205 insan ve seksenlerin sonlarında ise 1,5 milyon insana kadar yükselmiştir. Başkent Kabil’in nüfusu 1978 yıldan seksenlerin sonlarına kadar üçe katlanmıştır (Porahov, 1978). Daha sonrasında 1985 yılında Mücahitler bir araya gelerek Afganistan’daki Demokratik Halk Partisi’nin perçem kanadından Bebrek Kemal’ı destekleyen Sovyet askerlerine karşı ittifak kurdular. Bu tarihe geldiğinde Afgan halkının yarısı göç etmiş durumdaydı (Afganistan’ın yakın tarihi, 2009) ve doksanlarda Mücahitler Kabil’i aldıklarına sadece 200 binden fazla kişi şahit olabilmiştir. Çünkü ilk başlarda köylüler ve kırsal bölgelerde yaşayanlar başkent onlara daha güvenli yaşam sağlayacak düşüncesiyle göç etmiştir. Ancak Mücahitlerin ve diğer siyasi ve dini gruplar başkenti kanlı çatışma merkezine çevirmiştir. Böylece birçok insan ve aile çaresiz ülkeyi tamamen terk ederek komşu ülkelere gitmeyi tercih etmiştir. Özellikle Afganlar o dönemler Pakistan’a akın etmiştir. Pakistan’a göç edenlerin sayısı birden yükselince Pakistan Hükümeti tarafından Afgan göçmenleri kontrol etmek amaçlı özel ulusal komite kurulmuştur. Aynı şekilde İran’da Afgan göçmenlerin akın etmesiyle özel komiteler oluşturulmuştur. Ancak Afganların en çok tercih ettikleri ülke Pakistan olmuştur. Bunu Nisan !978 yılından Kasım 1982 yılına kadar raporlanmış tabloya bakarak görebiliriz (Collins J.J., 1982). 778 VI.

BM örgütün verilerine göre 1990 yılında Pakistan’da ve İran’da Afgan göçmenler sayısı toplam yaklaşık 6,2 milyon insana ulaşmıştır (Сикоев Р.Р.,1999). Türkiye’de Mülteci Hakları Uluslararası düzeyde mültecilerin hakları ilk defa 1951 yılında Birleşmiş Miletler Sözleşmesinde belirtilmiştir. Sözleşmenin 1. Maddesine göre, “1 Ocak 1951 ́den önce meydana gelen olaylar sonucunda ve ırkı, dini, tabiiyeti, belli bir toplumsal gruba mensubiyeti veya siyasi düşünceleri yüzünden, zulme uğrayacağından haklı sebeplerle korktuğu için vatandaşı olduğu ülkenin dışında bulunan ve bu ülkenin korumasından yararlanamayan, ya da söz konusu korku nedeniyle yararlanmak istemeyen; yahut tabiiyeti yoksa ve bu tür olaylar sonucu önceden yasadığı ikamet ülkesinin dışında bulunan, oraya dönemeyen veya söz konusu korku nedeniyle dönmek istemeyen şahıs” olarak tanımlanmıştır. Bu sözleşmenin nedeni ikinci Dünya 779 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Savaşında dünyada sayısızca insanın mülteci konumuna düşmesi olmuştur. Türkiye’de ise ilk olarak mülteci hakları ilgili hukuki düzenlemeler, Ortadoğu’daki 1980’lerin sonlarında başlayan ve 1990’ların başlarına kadar uzanan iç savaşlar yüzünden Türkiye’ye mültecilerin akın etmeye başlaması nedeniyle başlamıştır. Böylece 1994 yılında “Türkiye’ye İltica Eden veya Başka Bir Ülkeye İltica Etmek Üzere Türkiye’den İkamet İzni Talep Eden Münferit Yabancılar ile Topluca Sığınma Amacıyla Sınırlarımıza Gelen Yabancılara ve Olabilecek Nüfus Hareketlerine Uygulanacak Usul ve Esaslar Hakkında Yönetmelik” yayınlanmıştır. Daha sonra mevcut yönetmenliğe değişikler getirilerek 2006 yılında “Türkiye’ye İltica Eden veya Başka Bir Ülkeye İltica Etmek Üzere Türkiye’den İkamet İzni Talep Eden Münferit Yabancılar ile Topluca Sığınma Amacıyla Sınırlarımıza Gelen Yabancılara ve Olabilecek Nüfus Hareketlerine Uygulanacak Usul ve Esaslar Hakkında Yönetmelikte Değişiklik Yapılmasına Dair Yönetmelik” olarak yeni yönetmenlik resmi gazetede yayınlanmıştır. Türkiye’de göçmen hakları en başta Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Anayasasında 10. Maddesinde belirtilmiştir: “Temel hak ve özgürlükler, yabancılar için milletlerarası hukuka uygun olarak kanunla sınırlanabilir”. Türkiye’nin göç politikasının önemli dönüm noktalarının biri 1999 yılında Avrupa Birliğine kabul edilmiş olup önündeki en önemli engel “göç” politikası olmasıdır. Bu sebeple hükümet bu konuda kapsamlı araştırmalar yürüterek göç yönetimini nasıl yönetilebilir soruna cevap alabilmek amaçlı çalışmalar yapılmıştır ve 2001 yılında Türkiye ile Avrupa Konseyi arasında imzalanan ortaklık belgesinde göç yönetimi konusunda Türkiye hedeflerini şu şekilde belirtmiştir. 1. “Yasal olmayan göçü̈ önlemek için, göç̧ (kabul, tekrar kabul, sınır dışı etme) konusundaki AB Mevzuatı ve uygulamalarının benimsenmesi ve uygulanması.” 2. “Müktesebatın benimsenmesi, uygulanması ve idare edilmesi için kamu yönetiminin kapasitesinin özellikle eğitim ile yasal olmayan göç̧ ve yasal olmayan insan ve uyuşturucu kaçakçılığını önlemek için etkin sınır kontrollerinin geliştirilmesi dahil olmak üzere, bakanlıklar arasında uygun eşgüdüm sağlanmak suretiyle, iyileştirilmesi.” Türkiye’de son on sene değişen göç akımı nedeniyle “1994 Yönetmenliği” ve diğer hukuki düzenlemeler yetersiz kaldığı için 2 Şubat 2013’te 6458 sayılı Yabancılar ve Uluslararası Koruma Kanunu (YUKK) düzenlenerek 11 Nisan 2014 yürürlüğe girmiştir. Yabancılar ve Uluslararası Koruma Kanunu’nun (YUKK) getirdiği önemli değişiklik, 1951 Mülteci Sözleşmesi ve !994 Yönetmenliğinde yer alan “sığınmacı” kavramına son vererek “mülteci, şartlı mülteci, ikincil koruma” gibi tanımlara vererek değişikler getirmiştir. 780 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Mülteci: Avrupa ülkelerinde meydana gelen olaylar nedeniyle; ırkı, dini, tabiiyeti, belli bir toplumsal gruba mensubiyeti veya siyasi düşüncelerinden dolayı zulme uğrayacağından haklı sebeplerle korktuğu için vatandaşı olduğu ülkenin dışında bulunan ve bu ülkenin korumasından yararlanamayan ya da söz konusu korku nedeniyle yararlanmak istemeyen yabancıya veya bu tür olaylar sonucu önceden yaşadığı ikamet ülkesinin dışında bulunan, oraya dönemeyen veya söz konusu korku nedeniyle dönmek istemeyen vatansız kişiye statü belirleme işlemleri sonrasında mülteci statüsü verilir (Yabancılar ve Uluslararası Koruma Kanunu (YUKK)-Md. 61). Şartlı Mülteci: Avrupa ülkeleri dışında meydana gelen olaylar sebebiyle; ırkı, dini, tabiiyeti, belli bir toplumsal gruba mensubiyeti veya siyasi düşüncelerinden dolayı zulme uğrayacağından haklı sebeplerle korktuğu için vatandaşı olduğu ülkenin dışında bulunan ve bu ülkenin korumasından yararlanamayan, ya da söz konusu korku nedeniyle yararlanmak istemeyen yabancıya veya bu tür olaylar sonucu önceden yaşadığı ikamet ülkesinin dışında bulunan, oraya dönemeyen veya söz konusu korku nedeniyle dönmek istemeyen vatansız kişiye statü belirleme işlemleri sonrasında şartlı mülteci statüsü verilir. Üçüncü ülkeye yerleştirilinceye kadar, şartlı mültecinin Türkiye‟de kalmasına izin verilir (YUKK-Md. 62) İkincil Koruma: Mülteci veya şartlı mülteci olarak nitelendirilemeyen, ancak menşe ülkesine veya ikamet ülkesine geri gönderildiği takdirde; a) Ölüm cezasına mahkûm olacak veya ölüm cezası infaz edilecek, b) İşkenceye, insanlık dışı ya da onur kırıcı ceza veya muameleye maruz kalacak, c) Uluslararası veya ülke genelindeki silahlı çatışma durumlarında, ayrım gözetmeyen şiddet hareketleri nedeniyle şahsına yönelik ciddi tehditle karşılaşacak, olması nedeniyle menşe ülkesinin veya ikamet ülkesinin korumasından yararlanamayan veya söz konusu tehdit nedeniyle yararlanmak istemeyen yabancı ya da vatansız kişiye, statü belirleme işlemleri sonrasında ikincil koruma statüsü verilir (YUKK-Md. 63). Geçici Koruma: “1-Ülkesinden ayrılmaya zorlanmış, ayrıldığı ülkeye geri dönemeyen, acil ve geçici koruma bulmak amacıyla kitlesel olarak sınırlarımıza gelen veya sınırlarımızı geçen yabancılara geçici koruma sağlanabilir.” “2-Bu kişilerin Türkiye‟ye kabulü, Türkiye‟de kalışı, hak ve yükümlülükleri, Türkiye‟den çıkışlarında yapılacak işlemler, kitlesel hareketlere karşı alınacak tedbirlerle ulusal ve uluslararası kurum ve kuruluşlar arasındaki iş birliği ve koordinasyon, merkez ve taşrada görev alacak kurum ve kuruluşların görev ve yetkilerinin belirlenmesi, Bakanlar Kurulu tarafından çıkarılacak yönetmelikle düzenlenir (YUKK-Md. 62).Geçici Koruma Dair Yönetmenliğine 2016 yılında değişilik yapılarak “20 Mart 2016 781 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal tarihinden sonra ülkemiz üzerinden düzensiz yollarla Ege adalarına geçmiş olan Suriye Arap Cumhuriyeti vatandaşlarından, ülkemize geri kabul edilenlere koruma talep etmeleri halinde bu Yönetmelik kapsamında geçici koruma sağlanabilir” fıkrası eklenmiş olup, söz konusu Yönetmelik halen yürürlükte bulunmaktadır. Türkiye’de Afgan Göçmenlerin Eğitim Sorunu Milli Eğitim Bakanlığının 23 Eylül 2014 tarih ve 2014/21 sayılı “Yabancılara Yönelik EğitimÖğretim Hizmetleri” konulu genelgeyle mülteci ve sığınmacı çocuklar da dahil olmak üzere ülke sınırları içerisindeki zorunlu eğitim çağındaki tüm çocukların eğitim-öğretim hizmetlerine erişimleri ile ilgili birtakım standartlar oluşturulmuştur. Söz konusu genelgeyle ülke sınırları içerisindeki yabancı uyruklu öğrencilerin eğitim öğretim hizmetleri ile ilgili işlemlerin Bakanlık ve İl Komisyonlarınca yerine getirilmesi esasa bağlanmıştır. Aynı genelgeyle mülteci ve sığınmacıların sadece Geçici Eğitim Merkezlerinde değil, MEB’e bağlı devlet okullarında da eğitimlerine devam etmeleri sağlanırken, öncesinde kayıtta istenen “ikamet izni” yerine artık “yabancı tanıtma belgesi” ile en yakın bir devlet okuluna kaydolabilmelerinin önü açılmıştır. TUİK’in verilerine göre Afganlar Türkiye’de son 3 yılda fazla göçmen sayısıyla üçüncü sırada gelmektedir ve sayı olarak Suriyeli göçmenlerden önde gelmektedir. UNHCR’in verilerine göre Afgan göçmenlerin yaklaşık %60 gençler ve çocuklar oluşturmakta. Kayıtsız ikamet edenlerin sayısı da çok fazladır. Afganların en çok bulunduğu iller Adana, Konya, Erzurum, Van, İzmir ve İstanbul. Maddi Sorunlar: Afgan çocukların ve gençlerin Türkiye’de eğitim almalarında en büyük sorun sosyal-ekonomik sorunlardır. Ailelerin büyük kısmı daimî gelire sahip değil. Devlet tarafından da belirli yardım ya da program belirlenmemektedir. Bu konuda İl Milli Eğitim Müdürlükler, Belediyeler ve sivil Toplum Örgütler iş birliği içerisinde birçok program düzenleyerek yardımcı gelişme sağlamaya çalışsa da uygulamada sorunlar hala devam etmektedir. Dil Sorunu: Son yapılan araştırmalara göre Afgan çocukların önemli sorunların biri dil olmaktadır. Bu nedenle çoğu göçmen çocukları Türkiye Cumhuriyeti tarafından onlara tanınan tüm devlet okullarında eğitim alma haklarını kullanamıyorlar. Türkçe bilmedikleri için devlet okullarında diğer çocuklarla entegre olmaları nerdeyse imkânsız oluyor ve aynı zamanda akademik başarılarını etkilemektedir Sürekli Yer Değiştirme: Afgan çocukların diğer sorunlarının biri ailelerin sürekli yer değiştirmeleridir. Türkiye’ye gelen Afgan ailelerin en büyük sorunların biri de sabit iş bulamama. Gelen göçmenlerin büyük kısmı günlük işlerde çalışıyorlar. Bu nedenle yurt dışına kadar yol alan istihdam arayışı Türkiye’de de son bulmuyor ve Türkiye sınırları içerisinde de 782 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal göç haraketlilikleri devam ediyor. Bu nedenle Afgan çocukların kaydoldukları okullardaki eğitimleri yarım kalıyor ve sürekli okul değiştirme sonucunda çocuğun hem akademik başarısı olumsuz etkilenerek ve okuldaki diğer öğrencilerle uyum sorunu yaşanıyor. Düzensiz Göçmenler: Afgan çocukların eğitimden uzak kalmalarının bir başka sorunu Afgan ailelerin Türkiye’ye kaçak yollarla gelmeleridir. Son yılların verilerine göre Türkiye sınırını kanun dışı yollarla geçenler listesinde Afganlar ilk sırada gelmektedir. UNESCO Uluslararası Göç Kürsüsü Yürütücüsü Doç. Dr. Ayselin Yıldız, Türkiye’de yakalanan göçmenlerin %40 Afgan göçmenler olduğunu belirtti ve son yıllarda ilk sırada Suriyeliler değil Afganlar olması her sene Afganistan’dan gelen göçmenlerin arttığını göstergesidir. Düzensiz gelen Afgan göçmenlerin kaçak çalışarak ilgili kurumlara kayıt yaptırmıyorlar. Çocukları ise haliyle okula kaydolamıyorlar. Sonuç ve Öneriler Göç ve göçmenler geçmişten günümüzde kadar tüm ülkelerde önemli yere sahip olmuştur. Birçok ülkede göçmenler ülkenin siyasi ve ekonomik gelişmelerini etkileyen en büyük faktörlerin biridir. Örneğin yakın tarihe bakacak olursak, en güzel örnek olarak Sovyet Sosyalist Cumhuriyetler Birliğini (SSCB) gösterebiliriz. Çünkü 1922’de kurulan ve on beş ülkeden oluşan Sovyet Birliği, bu ülkelerin birleşmesiyle ülkeler arası göçün sayısı artacağın farkına varmıştır. Özellikle gelişmeyen ve ekonomik olarak daha zayıf kalan ülkelerden merkeze (Moskova) ve başka büyük kentlere göç akını olabileceğini öngörmüşlerdir. Olası büyük göçler sonucu farklı kültürlerin büyük çatışması da kaçınılmaz olabilirdi. Bu nedenle hükümet bu konuda kapsamlı göç politikası ve entegrasyon programı düzenlemiştir. Bu programın en büyük önem gösterilen nokta eğitim olmuştur. Yapılan düzenlemeler sonucunda on beş ülkeyi Kiril alfabesine geçirerek aynı eğitim sistemi uygulanmaya başlanmıştır. Orta Asya ülkelerinde yaşayanlar göçebe hayat sürdükleri için ve belirli sabit yaşam alanları olmadıkları için çocuklarına düzenli eğitim vermek çok zor olmasına rağmen hükümet çocukları kelimenin tam anlamıyla dağdan taştan toplayarak yatılı okullarda eğitim vermeye çalışmıştır. Aynı zamanda kadın erkek eşitliğini getirerek cinsiyet ayırmaksızın tüm çocuklar eğitim almaya hak kazanmıştır. Çocuğunu okula yollamak istemeyene hükümet caydırıcı hatta hapis cezası bile uygulamıştır. Böylece, 1940’lara gelince halkın nerdeyse tamamının okuma yazma sorununu çözülmüştür. Bununla birlikte entegrasyondan ekonomiğe kadar en büyük sorunlar ortadan kalkarak bu topraklarda göze görülür derecede ciddi sosyal-ekonomik gelişmeler başlamıştır. Bu nedenle göç kontrolünde eğitim politikası en başta gelen ve en önemli adım. 783 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Türkiye’de son zamanlarda görülen göçmen sayısı, acil yeni göçmen eğitim politikasına ihtiyacımız olduğunu gösteriyor. Çünkü yukarıdaki verdiğimiz SSCB örneğinden eğitimin ne kadar önemli yere sahip olduğunu görebiliriz. Çünkü Türkiye’ye gelen göçmenlerin büyük kısmı mülteci statüsündeki göçmenler ve gelen göçmen çocukların çoğu kendi ülkelerinde de eğitime ulaşamayanlardandır. Bu nedenle öncellikle kapsamlı bir eğitim politikasının düzenlenmesi şart. Yukarıda belirtiğimiz gibi Afgan göçmenlerin %40 illegal yollarla Türkiye’ye gelmekteler. Bazıları kilometrelerce, günlerce yürüyerek ve birçok zorlukları atlatarak geliyor. Büyüklerle birlikte çocuklar da büyük psikolojik travma ile sınırları geçmekte. Göçmen eğitim politikasında en çok bu konuda çalışmalar yürütmemiz gerekir ve oluşturacağımız göçmen eğitim sistemi adım adım ilerlemeli: 1. Gelen göçmen çocuklara psikolojik destek sağlamak ve bunu zorunlu hale getirmek. 2. Zorunlu Türkçe dil hazırlığıyla birlikte, Türk kültürü dersi (Göçmen çocuklara özel Türkiye’yi tanıtan, Türk kültürünü anlatan ders içeriği oluşturmak). 3. Çocuklarını okutamayan bunun için maddi ve fiziki durumu müsaade etmeyen göçmen aile çocukları için yatılı okulları açılabilir (bunun için projeler geliştirerek uluslararası yardım kurumlardan maddi destek alınabilir). 4. Devlet okullarına yerleştirmek. Böylece, göçmen çocukları daha kolay bir şekilde entegre edebiliriz. Onların eğitim alması, yerli sosyal-kültürel değerlere sahip olması Türkiye’nin yarınları için büyük bir katkı olacaktır. Çünkü göçmenler arasındaki yoksulluk, eğitimsizlik, entegrasyon sorunu ilerde Türkiye’nin iç güvenliği ve refahı için tehdit oluşturabilir. Araştırmamızda belki de son yılların en çok konuşulan konuyu ele aldık ama güncel duruma baktığımızda somut adımlar atılmayan bir konu olduğunu vurgulamak istedik. Çünkü gittikçe artan Afgan göçmen sayısı ve diğer göçmenler ileride ülkemizin nülüsünün bir parçası olabilir. Bu nedenle durum daha karmaşık hale gelmeden eğitim konusunda belirli bir politika izlememiz şart. Unutmayalım ki “Ağaç yaş iken eğilir”, bugün bizim değil dediğim ağaç yarın bize belki meyve verir, gölge olur korur… 784 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal İKLİM VERİLERİNDEN FAYDALANARAK SİİRT ZİVZİK NARININ BİTKİ SU TÜKETİMİNİN BELİRLENMESİ Doç. Dr. Ali Beyhan UÇAK (ORCID: 0000000343442848) Siirt Universitesi, Ziraat Fakültesi, Biyosistem Mühendisliği Bölümü Siirt /Turkiye Email:abucak@siirt.edu.tr ÖZET Bu çalışmanın amacı iklim parametrelerinden yararlanarak bitki su tüketimini tahmin etmeye yarayan Penman Monteith eşitliği (ETo miktarına bağlı olarak çeşitli bitkilerin ET miktarlarının tahmin edilmesinde kullanılan yöntem) FAO 56 modifikasyonu yöntemini kullanarak Siirt zivzik narının Siirt iklim koşullarında bitki su tüketimini belirlemektir. Araştırmada bitki materyali olarak Siirt zivzik narı kullanılmıştır. Çalışma 2017 yılı narın yetişme sezonu boyunca yürütülmüştür. Erken vejetatif dönemde Penman Monteith eşitliği ile saptanan referans bitki su tüketimi günlük ETa değeri 5,5 mm gün-1 arasında değişirken, çiçeklenme öncesinde ve çiçeklenme döneminde 10-10,5 mm gün-1 olarak belirlenmiştir. Aylık (Temmuz) olarak ise, Penman Monteith eşitliğine göre 288.50 mm ay-1 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Penman Monteith FAO 56 modifikasyonu eşitliğine göre ise sezonluk ETo miktarı 808.0 mm/yıl olarak tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak çalışmada gerçek su tüketimi ile hesaplanan (kıyas) su tüketimi arasındaki farkın önemsiz olduğu ve daha fazla meteorolojik veri kullanarak bitki su tüketim tahminlerinde daha gerçekçi sonuçlara ulaşan bir yöntem olan Penman-Monteith eşitliği kullanılarak zivzik narının yarı kurak iklim koşullarında sulama programının hazırlanmasında kullanılabileceği söylenebilir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Plant water consumption, Climate data, Zivzik pomegranate 787 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal BENEFITTING FROM CLIMATE DATA, SİİRT ZİVZİK PARI DETERMINATION OF PLANT WATER CONSUMPTION ABSTRACT The aim of this study is to determine the plant water consumption of Siirt zivzik pomegranate in Siirt climatic conditions by using the FAO 56 modification method of the Penman Monteith equation (the method used to estimate the ET amounts of various plants depending on the amount of ETo), which is used to estimate plant water consumption by using climate parameters. Siirt zivzik pomegranate was used as plant material in the research. The study was conducted during the 2017 pomegranate growing season. While the reference plant water consumption daily ETa value determined by the Penman Monteith equation in the early vegetative period varied between 5.5 mm day-1, it was determined as 10-10.5 mm day-1 before flowering and during the flowering period. In monthly (July) terms, it was calculated as 288.50 mm month-1 according to the Penman Monteith equation. According to the Penman Monteith FAO 56 modification equation, the seasonal ETo amount was determined as 808.0 mm/year. As a result, it can be said that the difference between the actual water consumption and the calculated (comparison) water consumption in the study is insignificant and that it can be used in the preparation of the irrigation program of zivzik pomegranate in semi-arid climate conditions by using the Penman-Monteith equation, which is a method that reaches more realistic results in plant water consumption estimates by using more meteorological data.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Zivzik Narı, Siirt yöresinin önemli tarımsal ürünleri arasında yer almaktadır. Botan Çayı Vadisi etekleri boyunca yerleşim gösteren, Şirvan ilçesine bağlı Kapılı, Sarıdana, Pirinçli ve Zivzik (Dişlinar) köylerinde kapama bahçelerde yaygın olarak yetiştiriciliği yapılan bir meyve türüdür. Tad, aroma ve lezzet bakımından son derece iyi bir çeşit olan Zivzik, adından da anlaşılacağı gibi orta-sert yapıda bir çekirdeğe sahip olması nedeniyle sofralık tüketimden çok meyve suyu elde edilmesine uygundur. Mayhoş bir tada sahiptir. Bu çeşidin en önemli bir diğer özelliği de kontrollü atmosferli koşullarda altı aya kadar depolanabilme özelliğine sahip olmasıdır. 2008 yılında Gaziantep Fıstık Araştırma Enstitüsü tarafından tescil ettirilmiş bir çeşit olan Zivzik Narı üzerinde şimdiye kadar çeşitli konularda farklı araştırmalar yapılmıştır (Pakyürek ve ark., 2020; Al-Jabbari ve ark., 2020; Pakyürek ve ark., 2019; Aydın ve ark., 2017). Damla sulama yöntemi, tarımsal üretimde hem suyun ekonomik kullanımı sağlamakta hem de yabancı otları baskılayarak su kaybını azaltabilmektedir (Hill ve Keller, 1980). Nar yetiştiriciliğinde uygulanan sulama suyu miktarı ile verim ve meyve kalitesi arasında önemli ilişki olduğu bildirilmektedir. Uygulanan sulama suyu arttıkça meyve veriminin de buna paralel olarak arttığı ancak meyve kabuğunda oluşacak çatlaklar olmak üzere bazı kalite özelliklerinde azalmalar olabildiği bildirilmektedir (Khattab ve ark., 2011). Galindo ve ark. (2014), tarafından yapılan bir çalışmada kısıtlı su uygulamasının (0.33) verimde azalmaya, olgunlaşma süresinde kısalmaya, toplam fenolik madde miktarında az da olsa artışa, antosiyanin içeriğinde ise herhangi bir değişime neden olmadığı belirlenmiştir. Pena-Estevez ve ark. (2016), tarafından Mollar de Elche nar çeşidinde kontrol olarak tam sulama (1.00) ve kontrole göre %78 oranında azaltılmış sulama olmak üzere iki farklı sulama seviyesinin meyve kalitesi üzerine etkisi araştırılmıştır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre hasat edilen taze meyvelerde toplam fenolik madde ve antosiyanin içeriğinin kontrol konusuna kıyasla daha yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir. Mellisho ve ark. (2012) tarafından narda farklı sulama düzeylerinin meyvenin renk, mineral madde, suda çözünür kuru madde, asitlik gibi bazı kalite özellikleri üzerine olan etkisi araştırılmıştır. Sulama programı oluşturulmasında ve bitki su tüketiminin saptanmasında alternatif metotlardan birisi de, toprak suyunun ölçülmesi (gravimetrik) yöntemdir (Pardossi et al., 2009). Bitki su tüketimi ve sulama suyu ihtiyacı bitki, toprak ve iklim özelliklerine bağlı olarak değişkenlik göstermektedir. Tarımsal sulamada su kaynaklarının optimum bir randımanla kullanımı, bitki su tüketimini esas alan sulama programları hazırlanarak, bitkinin suya ihtiyacı olduğu zamanlarda sulama yapılması ve her sulamada bitkiye ihtiyacı kadar su verilmesi ile sağlanabilmektedir (Jensen ve Allen, 2016). Bitki su tüketim yöntemleri direkt olarak veya 789 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal indirekt olarak iklim parametrelerine bağlı olarak birçok yöntemle tespit edilebilmektedir. Direkt yöntemler uzun bir zaman dilimi ve fazla miktarda iş gücü gerektirirken, indirekt yöntemler daha basit ve daha hızlı uygulanabilmektedir (Kaya 2011). ETo’ı belirleyen etmenler iklim parametreleri ve hava verileridir. Örneğin belirlenmesinde FAO56 Penman-Monteith yöntemi değerlendirildiği bölgede çayır bitkileri ETo değeriyle oldukça sıkı şekilde benzerlik gösterdiği için, fiziksel olarak, fizyolojik ve aerodinamik parametrelerin her ikisini de açıkça birleştirmiş bir yöntem olması sebebiyle tek yöntem olarak tavsiye edilmektedir. Yöntemin ilk aşamasında birçok iklim verisi formüle dâhil olduğu için zorluklar yaşanmasına karşın araştırmadaki ilerlemeler ve bitkiler kıyas ürünlerini içeren geçerli tahminleri ile büyük çapta aşılmıştır (Jensen ve Allen, 2016). Bu çalışmanın amacı iklim parametrelerinden yararlanarak bitki su tüketimini tahmin etmeye yarayan Penman Monteith eşitliği (ETo miktarına bağlı olarak çeşitli bitkilerin ET miktarlarının tahmin edilmesinde kullanılan yöntem) FAO 56 modifikasyonu yöntemini kullanarak tatlı zivzik narının Siirt iklim koşullarında bitki su tüketimini belirlemektir. 2.

Bulgular ve Tartışma Erken vejetatif dönemde Penman Monteith eşitliği ile saptanan günlük ETa değeri 5,5 mm gün1 arasında değişirken, çiçeklenme öncesinde ve çiçeklenme döneminde 10-10,5 mm gün-1 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Aylık olarak ise Penman Monteith eşitliğine göre 288,5 mm ay-1 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Araştırmanın yürütüldüğü yıl mevsimlik bitki su tüketimi (Penman Monteith FAO 56) modifikasyonu eşitliğine göre ise ETo miktarı 808,0 mm olarak tespit edilmiştir. 4. Sonuç Son zamanlarda küresel ısınmaya bağlı olarak ciddi bir tehdit olarak karşımıza çıkan ani iklimsel değişim, ülkemizdeki kısıtlı olan su kaynaklarının tükenmesine yol açmakta önemli bir oynamaktadır. Bunun yanında zivzik narı bitkisi yetiştiriciliği alanında daha fazla teşvik edilmesi için yapılan çalışmada gerçek su tüketimi ile hesaplanan referans su tüketimi arasında farkın önemsiz olduğu belirlenmiştir. Öte yandan su tüketiminin en yoğun olarak kullanıldığı alanların sulama amaçlı olduğu düşünüldüğünde sulama projelerinin gerçekçi olarak iklim verilerine bağlı, uzun ya da kısa dönemlere ilişkin bitkilerin kullanacakları su miktarının belirlenmesi gereklidir. Sonuç olarak bitki su tüketiminin saptanmasında daha fazla meteorolojik veri kullanarak bitki su tüketim tahminlerinde daha gerçekçi sonuçlara ulaşan bir yöntem olan Penman-Monteith eşitliği kullanılarak zivzik narı bitkisinin sulama programı hazırlanmasında önerilebilir. Araştırmadan elde edilen sonuçlar diğer araştırıcılar tarafından da test edilebilir. 793 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal SUNFLOWER LINES USING CLIMATE DATA DETERMINATION OF PLANT WATER CONSUMPTION ABSTRACT The aim of this study is to determine the water balance equation method, which is used to directly determine plant water consumption, and the Penman Monteith equation, which is used to estimate plant water consumption by using climate parameters (the method used to estimate the ET amounts of various plants depending on the amount of ETo) and the FAO 56 modification method, to determine the results of sunflower lines in Siirt climatic conditions. To determine plant water consumption. Sunflower line was used as plant material in the research. The study was carried out in the trial field of Siirt University Faculty of Agriculture during the growing season of sunflower lines in 2016. According to the water balance equation in the early vegetative period, the daily ETa value varied between 4.5 mm day-1, while it was determined as 9,510 mm day-1 before flowering and during the flowering period. The reference plant water consumption determined by the Penman Monteith equation was calculated as 9.0 mm day-1. On a monthly basis (July), it was calculated as 270.0 mm month-1 according to the water balance equation and 262.22 mm month-1 according to the Penman Monteith equation. In the year the research was conducted, the amount of irrigation water applied to sunflower lines was 637.00 mm, and according to the water balance equation method, seasonal plant water consumption (ETa) was determined as 724.0 mm, and according to the Penman Monteith FAO 56 modification equation, the amount of ETo was determined as 738.0 mm. As a result, it can be said that the difference between the actual water consumption and the calculated (comparison) water consumption in the study is insignificant and that it can be used in the preparation of the irrigation program of the corn plant in semi-arid climate conditions by using the Penman-Monteith equation, which is a method that reaches more realistic results in plant water consumption estimates by using more meteorological data.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Ülkemizde insan beslenmesinde çoğunlukla ayçiçeği yağının tercih edilmesi ve artan yağ açığımız nedeniyle en önemli yağ bitkilerinden birisi ayçiçeğidir. Hemen her şeyin mekanize olması, düşük işgücü kullanımı, geniş alanlarda ekim potansiyeline sahip olmasına rağmen, ayçiçeği ekim alanlarında istenen artış sağlanamamıştır. Bunun en önemli nedenlerinden birisi; ülkemizin hemen her bölgesinde ayçiçeği kuru ziraat şeklinde (yağışa bağlı olarak sulanmadan) üretildiğinden, gelişme dönemindeki kuraklıkların tane verimini olumsuz yönde etkilemesiyle üretiminin yıllar bazında değişiklik göstermesidir. Tarımsal anlamda iklim değişikliğinin en ciddi sonucu olan su stresi veya kuraklık konusunda alınabilecek önlemlerden biride ülkemizde önemli bir ekim alanına sahip olan ayçiçeğinin, su stresi koşullarında yetiştirilebilecek yeni ayçiçeği çeşitlerinin su stresine olası tepkilerinin belirlenmesi ve her yöreye uygun bitki su tüketimlerinin saptanması sürdürülebilir tarımın devamlılığı açısından büyük önem arz etmektedir (Anonim, 2022).Türkiye sahip olduğu toprak ve su kaynakları ile çok değişik iklim koşulları yönünden dünyada tarımsal potansiyeli yüksek olan sayılı ülkeler arasında bulunmaktadır. Ülkemizde işlenen arazi 28,5 milyon hektardır. Yapılan etütlere göre, mevcut su potansiyeli ile teknik ve ekonomik olarak sulanabilecek arazi miktarı 8,5 milyon hektar olarak hesaplanmıştır. Sulanan alan ise 6,7 milyon ha’dır (Anonim, 2021). Kırnak, ve Gençoğlan (2001), yaptıkları çalışmada Akdeniz ülkeleri için suyun kısıntılı bir kaynak olduğunu, kişi başına gerekli toplam su miktarının ise yaklaşık 1700 m3/kişi/yıl olduğunu bildirmişlerdir. Ancak, çoğu Batı Asya ülkelerinde bu rakam 500 m3/kişi/yıl’dan daha azdır. Bu durum gelecekte artan nüfus için çok olumsuz bir durumdur. Tarım %70 kullanım oranı ile suyu en fazla tüketen sektördür. Ülkemizin nüfusu yaklaşık olarak 82 milyona ulaşmış bulunmaktadır. Hâlbuki tarım arazilerini daha fazla arttırma olanağı bulunmamaktadır. Bu durumda artan nüfusumuzun beslenmesi, sanayimize hammadde sağlaması ve dış ödemeler dengesinde katkıda bulunması için tarımsal üretimin arttırılması gerekmektedir. Bu husus ülke çapında iyi bir üretim planlaması ve günün modern tekniklerinin uygulanmasıyla sağlanabilir. Günümüzde bitkilerin sulanmasında yüzey sulama yöntemleri yetersiz kalmakta ve uygulanan sulama suyunun yalnızca 1/3’ü bitkiler tarafından terleme (transpirasyon) yoluyla kullanılmaktadır. Bu nedenle, sulama yöntemlerinin geliştirilmesine şiddetle ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Bu bağlamda, Türkiye’nin de dâhil olduğu Akdeniz ülkelerinde yapılan çalışmaların sonucuna göre; damla sulamanın, ortalama %42 su tasarrufu sağladığı, fertigasyonun geleneksel gübrelemeye göre verimi %42 arttırdığı, sulama suyu kullanma etkinliği ise %79 oranında daha yüksek olduğu belirtilmiştir. Özellikle yağmurlama ve damla 798 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal sulama sistemlerine uygun sulama programları hazırlayıp, bu programları sulama otomasyonu ile birlikte uygulayarak su kullanım etkinliği daha da arttırılabilir. Plastik sanayinin hızla gelişimi, sulama sistemi ve donanımındaki gelişmeler, basınçlı sulama sistemi kullanımının artmasında itici bir güç oluşturmuştur. Bunun sonucu olarak son yıllarda birçok bitkinin sulanmasında yağmurlama ve damla sulama uygulamaları başlamıştır. Ülkemizde de bu konudaki araştırma çalışmaları yakın geçmişten (son 20-25 yıl) beri yapılmaktadır. Ayrıca, yüzey sulamadan damla sulama sistemlerine geçişte %30-60 arasında değişen oranda bir su tasarrufu sağlanabilmektedir (Anonim, 2003). Bitkilerin sulanması amacıyla, sulama programlarının oluşturulmasında son zamanlarda sulama otomasyonu kullanılmaya başlanmıştır. Sulama otomasyonu sulama programı ile birlikte kullanıldığında, daha hassas olmakta, su ve gübre kullanım etkinliğini arttırmakta, işçilik ve enerji giderlerini azaltmakta, verimi ve kaliteyi arttırmakta, insan hatasını en aza indirmekte, sık ve düşük hacimli sulama yapma imkânı sağlamaktadır. Günümüzde bitkilerin sulanmasında yüzey sulama yöntemleri yetersiz kalmakta ve uygulanan sulama suyunun yalnızca 1/3’ü bitkiler tarafından terleme (transpirasyon) yoluyla kullanılmaktadır. Bu nedenle, bitkilerin her yöre ve her bitki için bitki su tüketimlerinin geliştirilmesine yönelik çalışmaların yapılmasına gereksinim duyulmaktadır. Ulusal ve uluslararası kaynaklarda ‘Evapotranspirasyon’ olarak adlandırılan ve ETa simgesiyle gösterilen terimin Türkçe’ deki karşılığı ‘Bitki Su Tüketimi’ olarak tanımlanmaktadır (Bayramoğlu, 2013; Uçak ve ark., 20216). Bitki su tüketiminin (Evapotranspirasyon, ETa) saptanması; su kaynaklarının işletilmesi, sulama sistemlerinin planlanması ve sulama programlarının yapılabilmesi için temel bir ihtiyaçtır. Bitkisel üretimde bitki su tüketiminin dikkate alınması ve suyun ölçülü kullanılması, hem verim hem de toprak-su kaynaklarının korunması açısından büyük önem taşımaktadır (Abtew ve Obeysekera, 1995; Güngör et al., 2004; Demir ve Meral, 2016). Günümüzde sulama programlarının oluşturulmasında dikkate alınan en önemli parametrelerden biriside bitki su tüketimidir. Bitki su tüketimi lizimetre sistemleri, tarla deneme parselleri ve bitki kök bölgesindeki nem azalmasının denetimi gibi metotlardan faydalanarak doğrudan hesaplanabilmektedir (Şarlak ve Bağçacı, 2020; Kırnak ve Gençoğlan, 2001). Sulama uygulamalarında bitki su tüketimin dikkate alınmadığı ve homojen bir su dağılımının yapılamadığı, salma sulama yönteminin kullanılması durumunda, bitki gelişiminde büyük bir öneme sahip olan demir mineralinin topraktan yıkanarak etkili kök bölgesi altında sızmasına sebep olmaktadır (Fulton, 2013; Jarvis Shean et al., 2018). Uygulamada sulama programı, genellikle yetiştirici deneyimlerine veya toprak su dengesi (iklim temelli yöntem) belirlenmesine dayanmaktadır. Sulama programı oluşturulmasında ve 799 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal bitki su tüketiminin saptanmasında alternatif metotlardan birisi de, toprak suyunun ölçülmesi (gravimetrik) yöntemdir (Pardossi et al., 2009). Bitki su tüketimi ve sulama suyu ihtiyacı bitki, toprak ve iklim özelliklerine bağlı olarak değişkenlik göstermektedir. Tarımsal sulamada su kaynaklarının optimum bir randımanla kullanımı, bitki su tüketimini esas alan sulama programları hazırlanarak, bitkinin suya ihtiyacı olduğu zamanlarda sulama yapılması ve her sulamada bitkiye ihtiyacı kadar su verilmesi ile sağlanabilmektedir (Jensen ve Allen, 2016). Bitki su tüketim yöntemleri direkt olarak veya indirekt olarak iklim parametrelerine bağlı olarak birçok yöntemle tespit edilebilmektedir. Direkt yöntemler uzun bir zaman dilimi ve fazla miktarda iş gücü gerektirirken, indirekt yöntemler daha basit ve daha hızlı uygulanabilmektedir (Kaya 2011). ETo’ı belirleyen etmenler iklim parametreleri ve hava verileridir. Örneğin belirlenmesinde FAO56 Penman-Monteith yöntemi değerlendirildiği bölgede çayır bitkileri ETo değeriyle oldukça sıkı şekilde benzerlik gösterdiği için, fiziksel olarak, fizyolojik ve aerodinamik parametrelerin her ikisini de açıkça birleştirmiş bir yöntem olması sebebiyle tek yöntem olarak tavsiye edilmektedir. Yöntemin ilk aşamasında birçok iklim verisi formüle dâhil olduğu için zorluklar yaşanmasına karşın araştırmadaki ilerlemeler ve bitkiler kıyas ürünlerini içeren geçerli tahminleri ile büyük çapta aşılmıştır (Allen et al., 1998). Bu çalışmanın amacı doğrudan bitki su tüketimini belirlemeye yarayan su dengesi eşitliği ve iklim parametrelerinden yararlanarak bitki su tüketimini tahmin etmeye yarayan Penman Monteith eşitliği (ETo miktarına bağlı olarak çeşitli bitkilerin ET miktarlarının tahmin edilmesinde kullanılan yöntem) FAO 56 modifikasyonu yöntemini kullanarak ayçiçeği hatlarının Siirt iklim koşullarında bitki su tüketimini belirlemektir. 2. Gereç ve Yöntem 2.1. Deneysel Çalışmalar Damlama sulama yönteminin kullanıldığı deneme parsellerinde su dağıtımı, 4 atm çalışma basıncı ve 16 mm dış çapa sahip yumuşak PE lateral boru hatları kullanılarak sağlanmıştır. Araştırma alanının toprakları ağırdır ve 7 mm h-1 infiltrasyon oranına sahiptir. Her lateralde, sıralı tip basınç düzenleyicisi ve 1 atm çalışma basıncında 4 L h-1 akış hızına sahip damlatıcılar kullanıldı ve aralarında 0.33 m boşluk kaldı. Bu nedenle, bitki damla sulama yöntemi ile sulama suyu sadece doğru miktarda uygulanmıştır. Herhangi bir sızma veya yüzey akışı meydana gelmesine izin verilmemiştir. Sırta ekilecek tohum yatağı hazırlanmıştır. Her parsel, sıra arasında 70 cm boşluk, sıra üzeri 20 cm boşluk, parsellerin boyutları 6 m uzunluğunda ve 2,8 m genişliğinde (parsel yüzeyi = 16,8 m2) olmak üzere 4 çizgiye sahip olacak şekilde tasarlanmıştır. Tohumun 4-5 cm derinlikte ekildiğinden emin olmak için 4 hatlı pnömatik 800 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal tohum makinası kullanılmıştır. Sulama konuları ve tekrarlar arasındaki etkileşimleri önlemek için 2 m tampon bölge oluşturulmuştur. Çalışmada, etkili kök derinliğinin (90 cm) nem içeriği her sulamadan önce gravimetrik yöntem kullanılarak tespit edilmiştir. Her tür için tam sulama (I100)ile kontrol parselinde 90 cm toprak derinliğinde eksik nem getirmek için sulama suyu miktarı, her bir konu için uygulanacak sulama suyu miktarını belirlemek için kullanılmıştır. Bu amaçla, sulama öncesi her sulama derinliği için 90 cm'lik toprak profilinin 0-30, 30-60 ve 6090 cm'lik tabakalarından alınan toprak numuneleri toplanmış ve kuru toprak ağırlık yüzdesi (%Pw) olarak belirlenmiştir. Her katman için belirlenen nem içeriği, denklem 1 kullanılarak derinlemesine nem içeriğine dönüştürülmüştür. d=(Pw-PwAW)*As*D/100.................

Bitkinin su tüketiminin hesaplanmasında aşağıdaki su dengesi denklemi kullanılmıştır (Eq. (4)) (Zeleke ve Wade 2012). ETa= P + I – Rf – Dp ± ΔS .................(Eq. (5).

Çalışmada tercih edilen damla akış hızı toprağın sızma hızından daha düşük olduğundan, yüzey akışı oluşmamıştır. Sulama suyu miktarı mevcut nemi saha kapasitesine getirmek için yeterli olduğu için derin bir sızma meydana gelmediği varsayılmıştır.

Bulgular ve Tartışma Erken vejetatif dönemde su dengesi eşitliğine göre günlük ETa değeri 4,5 mm gün-1 arasında değişirken, çiçeklenme öncesinde ve çiçeklenme döneminde 9,5-10 mm gün-1 olarak belirlenmiş olup, Penman Monteith eşitliği ile saptanan referans bitki su tüketimi ise 9.0 mm gün-1 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Aylık olarak ise su dengesi eşitliğine göre 270 mm ay-1, Penman Monteith eşitliğine göre 262,3 mm ay-1 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Araştırmanın yürütüldüğü yıl ayçiçeği hattına uygulanan sulama suyu miktarı 637.00 mm olup su dengesi eşitliği yöntemine göre mevsimlik bitki su tüketimi (ETa) 724 mm, Penman Monteith FAO 56 modifikasyonu eşitliğine göre ise ETo miktarı 738.40 mm olarak tespit edilmiştir. 4. Sonuç Son zamanlarda küresel ısınmaya bağlı olarak ciddi bir tehdit olarak karşımıza çıkan ani iklimsel değişim, ülkemizdeki kısıtlı olan su kaynaklarının tükenmesine yol açmakta önemli bir oynamaktadır. Bunun yanında ayçiçeği bitkisi yetiştiriciliği alanında daha fazla teşvik edilmesi için yapılan çalışmada gerçek su tüketimi ile hesaplanan referans su tüketimi arasında farkın önemsiz olduğu belirlenmiştir. Öte yandan su tüketiminin en yoğun olarak kullanıldığı alanların 804 VI.

This study explores the application of the Space Syntax method as a powerful tool in understanding and designing urban spaces that promote efficient movement, social integration, and improved quality of life.The Space Syntax method, rooted in architecture and urban planning, focuses on mapping and analyzing the spatial layout and connectivity of cities, districts, or individual buildings. By utilizing graph theory and mathematical models, this approach allows researchers and practitioners to unveil patterns of movement, accessibility, and social interaction within built environments.This study provides an overview of the theoretical framework and the various techniques employed in Space Syntax analysis. It discusses the significance of axial and visibility analysis, which capture the movement potential and visibility relationships of different spatial configurations. Furthermore, it delves into tools such as integration analysis, which quantifies the interconnectedness of spaces, and configurational analysis, which measures the complexity and intelligibility of spatial layouts.The study further highlights the invaluable insights provided by Space Syntax analysis in the planning and design of cities and buildings. By understanding how spatial layouts influence human behavior, decision-makers can optimize urban environments to foster social cohesion, pedestrian movement, and accessibility. This method has the potential to inform crucial decisions related to urban regeneration, transportation planning, and the design of public spaces.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction In the intricate weave of urban landscapes and architectural design lies a profound understanding of space and its influence on human behavior. At the heart of this understanding is the concept of space syntax—a powerful analytical tool that unveils the underlying patterns and relationships within built environments. As cities grow denser and design becomes more complex, the application of space syntax offers a compelling lens through which architects and urban planners can decipher the dynamics of space.Urban planning is a complex and multifaceted process that requires careful consideration of numerous factors to create functional and livable cities. One approach gaining traction in recent years is the use of space syntax. Space syntax is a method that analyzes spatial configurations and their relationships to human behavior. By mapping the accessibility and connectivity of urban spaces, planners can better understand how people navigate and interact with the built environment. This information can inform decisions on transportation, land use, and urban design to create more efficient, inclusive, and sustainable cities. As urban populations continue to grow, the need for strategic planning becomes increasingly crucial. Through the use of space syntax, planners can gain valuable insights into the spatial dynamics of cities, ultimately leading to more effective and responsive urban planning strategies.This study delves into the fundamental principles and practical applications of space syntax, exploring its transformative impact on architectural theory and urban planning strategies. From its theoretical origins to its contemporary use in shaping vibrant, functional spaces, we embark on a journey to uncover how space syntax enriches our comprehension of spatial organization and human interaction. Understanding Space Syntax Understanding space syntax is crucial for effective urban planning as it offers a comprehensive framework that integrates physical structures with social, economic, and cultural considerations. Building on the principles of space syntax theory, urban designers can gain deeper insights into the spatial configurations of urban environments and their impact on human interactions and activities. The use of advanced methodologies, such as drone oblique photography and clustering algorithms, as demonstrated in (Ran Zhang et al., 2023), allows for a nuanced analysis of spatial patterns, emergence of informal spaces, and their determinants within communities. By leveraging space syntax tools like Depthmap, designers can decipher the intrinsic relationships between architectural layouts, traffic patterns, and the formation of various spatial typologies, as exemplified in the case study of Jilin City (Kayvan Karimi, 2023). This in-depth understanding of urban morphology enables planners to develop evidence-based 809 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal designs and predictive models that address the evolving needs of urban populations while fostering sustainable and balanced urban environments. Ultimately, the integration of space syntax in urban planning practices holds the potential to reshape future urban settings by harmonizing physical structures with human existence.Space syntax emerged in the 1970s, pioneered by a group of researchers at the Bartlett School of Architecture and Planning under the leadership of Bill Hillier and Julienne Hanson. This group developed a theoretical and practical methodology aimed at providing a mathematical definition of space and testing its spatial potentials with foresight. This methodology, developed to predict human behaviors at both building and urban scales, came to be known as space syntax. Space syntax studies are not limited to urban scales but also encompass architectural scales. Over time, the most important concept encapsulated within space syntax is the notion of spatial configuration (Hillier, 2007). Hillier and Hanson (1984) assert that the spaces within buildings reflect the relationships within society. As expressed by Penn (2003), space syntax enables the comparative reading of spaces with different functional organizations and configurations. Space Syntax With the Scope of Urban Planning Historical Development of Space Syntax in Urban Planning The historical development of Space Syntax in urban planning has been a subject of significant evolution and application, as evidenced by the studies on urban agglomeration patterns and topological analyses of cities like Colombo and Irkutsk. Research (Nilantha Randeniya et al., 2023) highlights the interconnectedness of cities within urban agglomerations, emphasizing the spatial formations and population integration crucial in urban design. This perspective underscores the importance of understanding historical urbanization patterns, such as Colombo's nuclear style urbanization prior to 1970 and subsequent suburban expansion post1990, shaping the city over time. Additionally, the study on Irkutsk (Timur A. Dashiev, 2021) showcases the practical implications of Space Syntax through the analysis of axial maps and city integration dynamics. Drawing insights from these studies, the historical development of Space Syntax reveals its relevance in enhancing urban functional zoning, improving social efficiency, and guiding spatial development strategies for sustainable urban planning practices. Principles of Space Syntax Analysis In understanding the principles of Space Syntax Analysis within the realm of urban planning, it is essential to delve into the intricate dynamics of public spaces and their impact on social interactions, particularly among the elderly population. Research has shown that close social interactions, such as those facilitated through blind-dating activities in urban areas, play a vital 810 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal role in enhancing the well-being and social connections of the elderly. This emphasis on social behavior highlights the importance of designing urban spaces that not only cater to physical needs but also foster opportunities for meaningful social engagement. Additionally, the recognition of spatial hierarchy within architectural structures, as observed in mosques, sheds light on the significance of spatial organization in creating inclusive and accessible environments for community interaction. By integrating the principles of Space Syntax Analysis with a focus on encouraging social interactions and hierarchies within public spaces, urban planners can enhance the quality of city living, promote community cohesion, and contribute to the overall well-being of residents. Applications of Space Syntax in Urban Planning The application of Space Syntax in urban planning offers significant benefits in enhancing the design and functionality of urban spaces. By incorporating principles of Space Syntax, urban planners can analyze the spatial configurations of cities to optimize connectivity, integration, and choice within the urban fabric. Utilizing a combination of Space Syntax analysis and clustering techniques, as proposed in the study by (C. Pezzica et al., 2021), can further facilitate the evaluation of temporary housing sites post-disaster, aiding in the formulation of effective urban design strategies for resilient recovery. Additionally, the theoretical foundations of Space Syntax, as expounded in (A. Refaat, 2019), provide a framework for understanding the tangible aspects of urban design, translating intangible urban values such as legibility and accessibility into quantifiable measures. This comprehensive approach empowers urban planners to create more inclusive, navigable, and user-friendly urban environments through informed spatial design decisions. Case Studies Utilizing Space Syntax In exploring the utilization of space syntax in urban planning through case studies, it becomes evident that the integration of digital technologies and data analysis plays a crucial role in understanding spatial patterns and their implications on social behavior and economic growth. As evidenced by the research presented in (Tara Azad Rauof, 2023), there exists a mathematical relationship between connectivity values and urban spatial layouts, highlighting the importance of analyzing such relationships to enhance urban design efficiency. Moreover, the findings from (Yunfeng Huang et al., 2023) shed light on the spatial advantages of commercial layouts in traditional villages, emphasizing the significance of strategic placement for optimal commercial success. By critically analyzing these case studies, planners and architects can glean valuable insights into how space syntax principles can be effectively applied to enhance urban 811 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal configurations, promote economic development, and improve overall urban planning strategies for sustainable and efficient city design. Criticisms and Limitations of Space Syntax The use of space syntax in urban planning has garnered significant attention for its ability to analyze spatial configurations and their impact on human behavior and movement patterns. However, criticisms and limitations of space syntax must be acknowledged to ensure its effective application in urban design. One major criticism relates to the challenge of state-space explosion, which can hinder the scalability and complexity of space syntax models. Symmetry reduction techniques, as discussed in (Shamim Ripon et al., 2011), offer a potential solution to alleviate this issue by addressing the effects of identical components within systems. Moreover, the notion of generalizing mechanical translation procedures based on thesaurus principles, as explored in (M. Masterman et al., 2011), could inspire a broader perspective on addressing the complexities of spatial analysis in urban planning through innovative methodologies. By recognizing and addressing these criticisms and limitations, urban planners can enhance the applicability and robustness of space syntax in shaping sustainable and efficient urban environments. Integration of Space Syntax with Other Urban Planning Approaches The integration of space syntax with other urban planning approaches presents a valuable opportunity to enhance the sustainable development and functionality of urban areas. This synergy allows for a comprehensive analysis of urban morphology, connectivity, and mixed land use, as seen in studies focusing on neighborhoods in Erbil and Latin American cities. By incorporating space syntax analysis alongside qualitative and quantitative methods, urban planners can gain deeper insights into the relationships between street networks, neighborhood connectivity, and residents' satisfaction. The research on neighborhood planning in Erbil demonstrates that non-gated neighborhoods tend to exhibit higher levels of connectivity and mixed land use, emphasizing the need for interventions in gated communities to align with sustainable urban design principles. Similarly, the study on the expansion areas in Latin American cities underscores the importance of integrating new development with already established urban areas to promote urban inclusion and functionality. Integrating space syntax with other planning approaches can guide decision-making processes in urban development to create more integrated, sustainable, and functional urban environments. 812 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Future Directions in Space Syntax Research In contemplating the future directions of space syntax research within the realm of urban planning, it is crucial to acknowledge the evolving trends and challenges that shape the field. As highlighted by bibliometric analysis (Abdelbaseer A. Mohamed et al., 2023), there exists a gap in understanding the main characteristics and tendencies of space syntax studies, emphasizing the need to delve deeper into publication trends, collaboration networks, and research frontiers to chart a course for future exploration. Furthermore, the comparative analysis of medical research facilities (Z. Zamani, 2023) sheds light on the importance of optimizing spatial allocations and design to foster collaboration, productivity, and efficiency—a lesson that can be extended to the urban planning domain. Moving forward, future research endeavors should capitalize on empirical data and longitudinal studies to address current limitations and ensure that space syntax methodologies continue to enrich urban planning practices by enhancing connectivity, flexibility, and safety within built environments. Impacts of Space Syntax on Urban Design and Policy The integration of space syntax in urban design and policy has had a significant impact on the way cities are planned and developed. By analyzing the relationship between spatial configuration and human behavior, space syntax enables planners to create more efficient and pedestrian-friendly urban environments. This approach considers how the layout of streets and buildings influences movement patterns, social interactions, and accessibility within a city. Through the use of space syntax analysis, planners can identify areas that may be underutilized or congested, leading to targeted interventions that improve the overall functionality of a city. Additionally, space syntax has been used to inform policy decisions related to transportation, land use, and public space design, promoting sustainability and equity in urban development (Akkelies van Nes et al., 2021-07-31). Overall, the application of space syntax in urban planning has proven to be a valuable tool in creating more livable and vibrant cities for residents and visitors alike. Challenges and Opportunities in Implementing Space Syntax The integration of space syntax into urban planning presents both challenges and opportunities that warrant careful consideration. Focusing on the implementation of space syntax in this context reveals complexities related to data collection, analysis, and interpretation, as well as the need for interdisciplinary collaboration between urban planners, architects, and data scientists. Leveraging modern data science practices, such as artificial intelligence and machine learning, as suggested by (Travis A. Meyer et al., 2022), offers the potential to enhance the 813 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal efficiency and effectiveness of space syntax analysis in urban planning. Moreover, the incorporation of computational visual programming, as discussed in (R. Schroeder et al., 2019), can facilitate interactive design tools and real-time collaboration, critically influencing design methodologies in the architectural and urban planning realms. Embracing these technological advancements may revolutionize the way urban planners approach spatial analysis, leading to more informed decision-making processes and innovative urban design solutions that prioritize functionality and aesthetic appeal while effectively addressing societal needs. Space Syntax With the Scope of Architecture Historical Development of Space Syntax in Architecture 1. Early Influences (1960s-1970s): In the 1960s and 1970s, seminal works by urban theorists such as Kevin Lynch and historical geographers like M. R. G. Conzen laid the groundwork for understanding the significance of spatial configuration in urban environments. Lynch's book “The Image of the City” (1960) explored how people perceive and navigate urban spaces, while Conzen's research on townplan analysis, such as “Alnwick, Northumberland: A Study in Town-Plan Analysis” (1960), highlighted the importance of historical spatial arrangements in shaping urban form. 2. Formation of Space Syntax Theory (1980s): Space syntax theory emerged in the 1980s through the pioneering work of architects Bill Hillier and Julienne Hanson. Their influential book “The Social Logic of Space” (1984) laid the foundation for understanding how spatial configurations influence human behavior and social interactions within built environments. This work introduced concepts such as visibility, accessibility, and integration, which became central to space syntax analysis. 3. Theoretical Refinement (1990s): Throughout the 1990s, Hillier, Hanson, and their colleagues further refined space syntax theory and developed analytical techniques to quantify spatial configurations. The book “Space is the Machine: A Configurational Theory of Architecture” (1996) provided a comprehensive overview of space syntax theory and its applications. Additionally, scholars like Alan Penn contributed to the theoretical advancement of space syntax, exploring topics such as spatial cognition and the relationship between space syntax and architectural design. 4. Widespread Adoption (2000s): In the early 2000s, space syntax gained popularity among architects, urban designers, and researchers worldwide. Researchers such as Michael Marshall and A. Turner explored the application of space syntax in architectural design and urban planning. Space syntax analysis 814 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal became increasingly integrated into architectural and urban design practices, influencing projects ranging from individual buildings to entire cities. 5. Continued Research and Applications (2010s-present): In recent years, space syntax research has expanded to encompass a wide range of topics, including sustainability, accessibility, and pedestrian movement. Scholars like Bin Jiang and Jie Yin have applied space syntax analysis to study urban street networks and pedestrian flow patterns. The continued research and application of space syntax continue to contribute to our understanding of how spatial configuration shapes human behavior and the built environment. These references provide a comprehensive overview of the historical development of space syntax theory in architecture, from its theoretical foundations to its widespread adoption and ongoing research applications. Applications of Space Syntax in Architecture Designing in the field of architecture is a learning process acquired through doing and experiencing. Architects, while engaged in design, generate multiple problems and ask questions within the fieldwork. These questions aid in defining the field and executing the design, contributing to a comprehensive understanding of architectural knowledge. Architectural knowledge is a synthesis of practice and theory (Vitruvius, 1990). During the design process, architects must reconcile abstract-concrete, mystery-certainty, intuitionscience, and practice-research concepts. Thus, focusing on the configurational theory (space syntax) of space and incorporating this process into design becomes an integral part of the design. The Usage Areas of Syntax in Architecture Space syntax analysis is often used in architectural design to understand how spatial layouts influence movement patterns, visibility, and social interactions within buildings. Architects use space syntax techniques to evaluate different design options and optimize spatial configurations for functionality and user experience (Turner, A., Penn, A., 2003).Space syntax analysis helps architects and urban designers create more navigable environments by understanding how spatial configurations affect wayfinding. By analyzing the spatial connectivity and accessibility of different paths and spaces, designers can improve navigation efficiency and user experience (Dalton, R.C., 2008).Space syntax analysis is used to assess and improve the accessibility of buildings and urban environments for people with disabilities. By identifying barriers to movement and circulation, designers can implement solutions to enhance accessibility and inclusivity (Kim, Y. H., & Steinfeld, E. 2012). 815 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Conclusion In conclusion, the use of space syntax in urban planning has proven to be a valuable tool for analyzing and understanding the spatial configurations of cities. By applying this methodology, planners can identify patterns of movement, connectivity, and accessibility within urban environments, allowing for more informed decision-making in the design and development of urban spaces. The integration of space syntax into planning processes has the potential to optimize the functionality and efficiency of cities, creating more pedestrian-friendly environments, improving traffic flow, and enhancing overall urban livability. Additionally, space syntax analysis can help identify potential barriers to social inclusion and accessibility, guiding efforts to create more equitable and inclusive urban spaces. As cities continue to grow and evolve, the application of space syntax in urban planning will play a crucial role in shaping the future of sustainable and people-centered urban development.Commonalities and differences have been observed between the disciplines of architecture and urban regional planning in the concept of spatial sequence. In both architecture and urban planning, spatial sequence provides an analytical analysis of spatial structures. This analytical approach helps to understand spatial relationships and interactions and to support design decisions. In addition, in both fields, spatial sequencing focuses on improving design by taking into account human behaviour and interactions. By analysing the way users perceive, move and interact with spaces, spatial sequencing contributes to more user-oriented and functional designs.While spatial organization in architecture analyses the functional arrangements within buildings, spatial organization in urban planning generally examines the spatial structures of urban areas at a large scale. Therefore, in urban planning, the spatial sequence is analysed at a macro scale to understand urban morphology and social interactions, whereas in architecture, this scale remains at a micro level. On the other hand, while spatial organisation in architecture is used in the design process of individual projects, spatial organisation in urban planning is used in the development of broader urban strategies such as urban development policies, infrastructure planning and the elimination of social inequalities.In conclusion, the use of the Space Syntax method in architecture and urban planning presents a paradigm shift in understanding and designing built environments. By analyzing the spatial configuration and connectivity of cities and buildings, this approach offers valuable insights into the relationship between space, movement, and social interactions. Ultimately, this knowledge allows for the creation of urban environments that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also efficient, inclusive, and sustainable. 816 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 2,4-DIHYDRO-1H-CYCLOPENTA[B]INDOL-3-ONE: FRONTIER MOLECULAR ORBBITAL ANALYSIS Abstract In molecular orbital theory, the idea of frontier molecular orbitals (FMO) is crucial for comprehending the reactivity of molecules in organic chemistry. The Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital (HOMO) and the Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital (LUMO) are the two fundamental frontier molecular orbitals. In a chemical process, one electron is extracted from the HOMO orbital. In a reaction, it stands for the orbital that is donating. On the other hand, the orbital that acquires an electron during a chemical reaction is known as the LUMO. In a reaction, it stands for the accepting orbital. In this study, the frontier orbital analysis of molecule 2,4-dihydro-1H-cyclopenta[b]indol-3-one was performed with DFT/B3LYP theory/functional and 6-311++G(d,p) basis set using Gaussian 09W software package. From the results obtained, it was investigated whether the molecule we worked on could be a new organic corrosion inhibitor. Keywords: Corrosion Inhibitors, Frontier Orbitals, DFT 820 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction Inhibitors of organic corrosion are essential for preventing corrosion in metal materials. Because of their advantageous qualities, which include good metal adsorption, low oxidation resistance, thermal stability, and environmental friendliness, these compounds are frequently employed for surface anti-corrosion (Zhao et al., 2023). The ability to comprehend the molecular behavior of organic corrosion inhibitors by quantum theoretical modeling is an intriguing feature of these compounds (Brycki, Kowalczyk, Szulc, Kaczerewska, & Pakiet, 2018; Popoola, 2019). Computational techniques are used in quantum theoretical modeling to forecast the electronic structure and characteristics of molecules. Density functional theory (DFT) computations are used by researchers to investigate different factors in the context of organic corrosion inhibitors. In other words, we can put it as follows: We can investigate the atomic-level electrical structure and reactivity of molecules using quantum chemistry techniques. We can forecast the efficacy of organic compounds employed as corrosion inhibitors by using these methodologies, eliminating the need for expensive and timeconsuming trials. Within the fields of materials research and corrosion prevention, this prediction capacity is extremely significant. Quantum chemical simulations shed light on the interactions between corrosion inhibitors and metal surfaces in terms of mechanism. The energy bandgap, the energy of the lowest occupied molecular orbital (ELUMO), and the energy of the highest occupied molecular orbital (EHOMO) are among the factors that we can examine. These characteristics aid in our comprehension of how inhibitors attach themselves to metal surfaces and impede the corrosion process. In this study, the frontier orbital analysis of 2,4-dihydro-1H-cyclopenta[b]indole-3-one molecule (Fig. 1) was calculated for the first time with DFT/B3LYP theory/functional and 6311++G(d,p) basis set using Gaussian 09W package (Frisch et al., 2009) and Gauss View 5. 0 (Dennington, Keith, & Millam, 2009) interface softwares. Based on the results obtained, it was investigated whether the molecule we studied could be a potential new organic corrosion inhibitor. Figure 1. Unoptimized version of the molecule (https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/). 821 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Materials and Methods Our molecule was quantum chemically optimized using the Gaussian 09W software (Frisch et al., 2009) and Gauss View 5.0 (Dennington et al., 2009) interface tools. Gaussian 09W software (Frisch et al., 2009) is used in many different fields by researchers, such as organic chemistry, materials science, and biochemistry. It is essential to comprehending molecular characteristics and making behavioral predictions. In addition, this program includes molecular mechanics, semi-empirical and ab initio methods. The program allows for extensive customization, offering multiple theory and basis set options for each method. GaussView 5.0 (Dennington et al., 2009) is a powerful graphical interface designed to work seamlessly with Gaussian computational chemistry software. In summary, GaussView 5.0 also simplifies the workflow for computational chemists and physicists, allowing them to work efficiently with large molecular systems. With the use of the 6-311++G(d,p) basis set and DFT/B3LYP theory/functional, the molecule was optimized. Findings and Discussion Utilizing the DFT/B3LYP theory/functional and 6-311++G(d,p) basis set, 2,4-dihidro-1Hsiklopenta[b]indol-3-one molecule was optimized and the symmetry state of the molecule was determined as Cs (mirror symmetry). The optimized structure and the horizontal position of the molecule were shown in Fig. 2. Figure 2. Optimized (a) and horizontal position (b) version of the molecule. In the previous section, we have explained the importance of quantum chemical calculations before testing organic corrosion inhibitors in the experimental environment, both in terms of time and financially. Although there are many methods to quantum chemically predict whether a molecule can be an organic corrosion inhibitor (Albo Hay Allah, Balakit, Salman, Abdulridha, & Sert, 2023; Obot, Macdonald, & Gasem, 2015; Özlem, Gümüş, Yusuf, İrfan, & Atıf, 2022; 822 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Saha, Hens, Murmu, & Banerjee, 2016), the most common of these is to determine the proton affinity points on the molecule, to calculate the proton affinity points on the molecule, to analyze the frontier orbital of the molecule and to decide by looking at the symmetry state. At this stage, it should be emphasized that in order for a molecule to be a corrosion inhibitor, it should generally have the following properties, which directly require frontier molecular orbital analysis for the molecule. a) Cs must be close to symmetry, b) Excess in the ring, c) EHOMO value must be large, d) ELUMO value must be small, e) ΔE value must be small, f) Chemical softness value must be large, g) Chemical hardness value must be small, h) Electronegativity value must be small. In the first two stages, the symmetry of the molecule being mirror symmetry, i.e. Cs, is very good in terms of adhesion to the surface to be applied and the number of rings in the molecule is a positive start. The calculations required for the other parameters mentioned above were carried out with DFT/B3LYP theory/functional and 6-311++G(d,p) basis set using chk* file over the optimized structure. Table 1 presented the results that were obtained. Table 1. Some global reactivity descriptors the computed for the title compound. Parameters (eV) Values ELUMO -1.821 EHOMO -6.218 Energy bandgap |EHOMO ELUMO| 4.397 Ionization potential (I = 6.218 EHOMO) Electron affinity (A = ELUMO) 1.821 Chemical hardness ( = (I A)/2) 2.199 Chemical softness ( = 1/2 ) 0.227 Electronegativity (χ = (I+A)/2) 4.020 Chemical potential (μ = -4.020 Electrophilicity index (I+A)/2) = μ2/2 3.674 Maximum charge transfer index (ΔNmax. 1.828 = μ/ ) Fig. 3 also provided the molecule's HOMO and LOMO distributions. As can be seen from Fig. 3, the HOMO and LUMO clouds are concentrated on indole and cyclopenta rings, i.e. there is almost no electron flow from HOMO to LUMO. 823 VI.

Conclusion and Recommendations We can emphasize the outcomes with the following remarks in the section on Conclusion and recommendations: • Computational modeling helps evaluate the effectiveness of organic compounds as corrosion inhibitors. Therefore, the optimization and symmetry state of the 2,4-dihydro- 824 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 1H-cyclopenta[b]indole-3-one molecule, which is considered to be a potential corrosion inhibitor, was modelled quantum chemically with Gaussian 09W program. • The frontier orbitals of the molecule and the global indicators calculated based on these values were calculated using the optimized structure. Based on the results obtained, it was predicted that the molecule could be an alternative corrosion inhibitor. • When ΔN is less than 3.6eV, the inhibitor's ability to donate electrons to the surface of the material increases, leading to an increase in inhibition efficiency. • Although the theoretical results obtained are promising, the proton affinity points will be determined by using advanced computational techniques under the conditions considered for a real experimental environment and the values will be repeated more precisely. The calculations performed in this study were carried out in the gas phase.

Additionally, it is used in conjunction with dexamethasone to individuals suffering from multiple myeloma, a blood malignancy. Thalidomide reduces inflammation by influencing the immune system. It also prevents multiple myeloma cells from proliferating, which ultimately leads to their body's destruction. Thalidomide is a leprostatic agent and an antineoplastic (drug for cancer). This work involved a thorough investigation and detailed analysis of the molecular docking of 2-(2,6dioxopiperidin-3-yl)-5-fluoroisoindoline-1,3-dione with PDB-4TZ4 protein. In addition, electron-rich and electron-deficient regions of the molecule we studied were investigated by MEP analysis. Molecular docking studies were performed with Autodock Vina and MEP (Molecular Electrostatic Potential) analysis was performed with Gaussian 09W package program.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction The antiangiogenic and anti-immunoinflammatory properties of thalidomide and its analogs have increased its clinical usage in the treatment of multiple myeloma, various malignancies, and Hansen's disease despite its teratogenic hazard (Aragon-Ching, Li, Gardner, & Figg, 2007; Millrine & Kishimoto, 2017; Sherbet, 2015). Consequently, great efforts are being made to increase thalidomide's efficacy while lowering its toxicity. Due to its wide range of biological effects, including reduced TNF-α production, destabilized or decreased COX-2 expression, downregulated VEGF and FGF, NF-κB inhibition (possibly via suppression of IκB kinase), inhibition of prostaglandin E2 secretion, and α1-acid glycoprotein binding, thalidomide was initially thought to be a multitarget drug (Lepper, Smith, Cox, Scripture, & Figg, 2006; Paravar & Lee, 2008). But in 2010, a thalidomide-linked magnetic nanoparticle test for affinity purification revealed cereblon to be the exclusive target of thalidomide binding (Ito et al., 2010). The component of a DDB1-CUL4-RBX1 E3 ubiquitin ligase complex that recognizes substrates is called cereblon. The current theory explaining the bioactivity of thalidomide and analogues is that binding to the cereblon itself causes all downstream effects by inducing the degradation of substrates for the E3 complex by ubiquitin-dependent proteasomal enzymes (Ito & Handa, 2016; Krönke et al., 2015; Matyskiela et al., 2018). One of the products of glutamic acid is thalidomide. With the structural formula C13H10N2O4, it is a crystalline solid that dissolves readily in water. The general chemical behaviour of the structure is as follows (Fig. 1): Figure 1. The chemical structure of thalidomide molecule (Peach et al., 2020).Another name of the molecule which we are working on is thalidomide 5-fluoride. So it's a thalidomide-based molecule. 829 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal This study provides a comprehensive investigation of the molecular docking of the 2-(2,6Dioxopiperidin-3-yl)-5-fluoroisoindoline-1,3-dione molecule with the PDB-4TZ4 protein and the molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) analysis of the molecule was analysed for the first time. Materials and Methods Quantum chemical calculations of our ligand molecule were performed with Gaussian 09W package (Frisch et al., 2009) and Gauss View 5.0 (Dennington, Keith, & Millam, 2009) interface programs and docking calculations of the molecule to the related protein were performed with Autodock Vina (Trott & Olson, 2010). A popular software for determining the geometries and energy levels of molecular structures is Gaussian 09W (Frisch et al., 2009). An interface tool for modifying and viewing molecular structures is called Gauss View 5.0 (Dennington et al., 2009). This tool allows you to study the molecule's shape and assess its many characteristics. The optimization of the used ligand was performed with the help of DFT/B3LYP theory/functional and 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. Docking calculations of the ligand molecule to the related protein were performed using Autodock Vina (Trott & Olson, 2010). Autodock Vina is a molecular modeling tool used to predict protein-ligand interactions. Findings and Discussion The results obtained at this stage of the study can be analysed in two ways: molecular docking and MEP analysis results. When evaluated in terms of molecular docking, the following results were obtained. The molecule 2-(2,6-Dioxopiperidin-3-yl)-5-fluoroisoindoline-1,3-dione was optimized as mentioned above (Fig. 2) and subjected to molecular docking calculations with the PDB-4TZ4 protein. Calculations were performed with the Autodock Vina program. Although the protein we are working on has two chains, A and C, only the A chain was considered in the calculations. For more efficient results, the active residues of the C chain were determined as follows: PHE402, TRP400, CYS394, CYS391, TRP386, TRP380, SER379, HIS378, PRO352, ASN351, CYS326 and CYS323. Therefore, the selected grid parameters were also chosen to keep these active residues within and the obtained calculation results were presented in Table 1 (molecular docking energy scores, rmsd l.b. and rmsd u.b. values). Table 1 shows that the optimal binding energy in the first mode was determined to be -7.2 (kcal/mol). Furthermore, employing the exp(ΔG/RT) equation ''(G: binding energy, R: gas constant= 1.987203610-3 kcal/mol, and T: room temperature= 298.15K)'', the inhibition constant was discovered to be 5.27669 μM. 830 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal In addition, we can easily see which point of the protein the ligand is attached to as a result of the interaction in Fig. 4. Figure 4. The placement of the title molecule in active site of PDB: 4TZ4 (C chain) protein. In the second stage of the findings, the MEP analysis of the molecule was analysed. For MEP analysis of the molecule, the chk* file generated from the optimized structure was used. Again, as mentioned above, the calculation was performed on the same theory, functional and basis set. The MEP surface of the molecule and the scale obtained as a result of the calculation were presented in Fig. 5. Finding out a compound's reactivity and potential sites of interaction can be aided by MEP analysis, therefore it is very important (Palafox et al., 2015; Ramalingam, Periandy, Karabacak, & Karthikeyan, 2013). 832 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal The positive moiety on the MEP diagram represents the nucleophilic sites (blue dots), whereas the negative region represents the electrophilic sites (red points). Ultimately, the title chemical's MEP scale covered a range of -4.526e-2 to 4.526e-2. Conclusion and Recommendations In the Conclusion and Recommendations section, we can highlight the results obtained with the following points: • Molecular docking analysis between ligand and 4TZ4 (C chain) protein was performed with Autodock Vina. According to the scores obtained, 2-(2,6-dioxopiperidin-3-yl)-5fluoroisoindoline-1,3-dione molecule can be considered as a good potential inhibitor for related target. • Using MEP analysis, the molecule's nucleophilic (on hydrogen atoms) and electrophilic (over oxygen atoms like O2, O3, O4, and O5) sites were identified. Thus, it was roughly determined at which atoms the molecule would be inserted into the protein. Quantum chemical calculations of the molecule were performed with Gaussian 09W package programme.

Prof. Dr. F. Gül KOÇSOY*(ORCID: 0000-0002-7813-8961) Firat University, Faculty of Humane and Social Sciences, Department of English Language and Literature, Elazığ-Türkiye Email: fgulkocsoy@firat.edu.tr Abstract In the gothic works the dark, abandoned and decaying places often take place and there is a heavy reliance on symbolism. The characters, settings, and objects are closely related to symbolic meanings. Supernatural characters/beings such as vampires, monsters, demons, ghosts, witches, and supernatural objects are employed. H. P. Lovecraft in his “The Transition of Juan Romero” (1944) renders some strange occurrences at an extremely deep mine, including the rhythmic throbbing from the depths and the inexplicable sealing of the abyss. All these hint the supernatural forces at work. Romero who has an uncanny interest in the narrator’s Hindoo ring succumbs to the abyss, while the narrator experiences a moment of oblivion. In John Cheever’s “The Enormous Radio” (1947) a newly bought, enormous, and expensive radio, representing uncanny technology, violating the happiness and privacy of the family by broadcasting the private conversations of the neighbors is a supernatural intrusion, a common trope in gothic literature, and it isolates its owners from their environment. In the two American short stories the gothic clichés are used both to constitute gothic atmosphere and to convey symbolic meanings. The stories reflect the anxiety about and the fear of the unknown, including the developing technology and old lore. Keywords: Gothic, Uncanny, “The Enormous Radio”, John Cheever, “The Transition of Juan Romero”, H. P. Lovecraft 836 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction Gothic architecture is associated with churches, cathedrals, ribbed vaults, pointed arches, and flying buttresses. As a genre, the gothic dates back to the eighteenth century when The Castle of Otranto by Horace Walpole (1717-1797) was published in 1764. Moreover, the dark, abandoned, decaying places frequently take place in gothic works. Besides, there is a heavy reliance on symbolism in gothic works, characters, settings, and objects are engaged with symbolic meanings. The reader encounters supernatural characters such as vampires, monsters, demons, ghosts, witches, and supernatural objects like the ring in “The Transition of Juan Romero” by H. P. Lovecraft (1890-1937), and the radio in “The Enormous Radio” by John Cheever (1912-1982). There are also supernatural events in gothic fiction. The anti-hero figure or the gothic protagonist portrayed as flawed, isolated, or a marginalized outcast are common. “The Transition of Juan Romero” by Howard Phillips Lovecraft is a short story about the unsettling past experiences of the unnamed narrator with the enigmatic Mexican miner Juan Romero in the Norton Mine in 1894. This experience was fraught with horror and ominous incidents. From the beginning, the introduction of Juan Romero creates an eerie atmosphere. Lovecraft’s use of gothic descriptions, vivid imagery, and the desolate setting lead to a sense of unease and dread throughout the mysterious story. The story includes the common features of gothic literature but most importantly there is a gothic object in the story, the narrator’s Hindoo ring with strange writing on it which attracts the attention of Juan Romero.“The Enormous Radio” by John Cheever, published in the New Yorker Magazine in 1947 narrates the story of a nine-years married couple with two children. They have an “average of income, endeavour and respectability” (Cheever, 2024) in an apartment near Sutton Place. Their relationship with the newly bought gothic-like, enormous, and expensive radio violates privacy by broadcasting the private conversations of their neighbours. Jim and Irene Wescott are fond of serious music unlike their environment, and they frequently go to the cinema, listen to music on the radio, and go to concerts. That is why, music has a crucial role in their lives. In the beginning, the couple and their way of living with their two children seem normal, yet towards the end of the story, the reader understands that they are not acting ethically like their neighbours whose conversations they hear on the radio. This radio is interesting because the family can hear the voices in the apartment through it. 837 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Discussion The narrator of “The Transition of Juan Romero” by Howard Phillips Lovecraft is nameless since according to him a man who “suddenly migrates to the States or the Colonies, … leaves his past behind him” (Lovecraft, 2024). However, he always tells about a character named Juan Romero with his name at every turn. He states that not so long after his arrival at the Norton Mine, Juan Romero comes. He describes Romero as a noble Aztec, and states that “Juan differed little from his fellows” (Lovecraft, 2024). Nonetheless, there is a communication problem between the narrator and Juan Romero because Romero knows a few words of English, and the narrator is not acquainted with Oxonian Spanish. His past experiences with Juan Romero take place in a desolate setting, at a mine. There is an eerie setting throughout the story. The use of words such as ‘uncanny’ and ‘eerie’ in the story again attracts the reader’s attention. The narrator’s Hindoo ring attracts Juan Romero’s attention. Everything related to the ring is mysterious. The narrator does not know how he got the ring. Juan Romero a native sees it and he is fascinated and becomes like a slave a narrator. Maybe the ring evokes something for him or he feels that he should be a slave to the owner of the ring. Juan lives the ring’ s magic and sacred power. It reminds him of Aztec religion. “The attachment which Romero manifested toward me was undoubtedly commenced through the quaint and ancient Hindoo ring which I wore when not engaged in active labour” (Lovecraft, 2024). The narrator is also aware of this; “... my ring had affected him peculiarly...” (Lovecraft, 2024). These foreshadow the importance of the gothic object, the ring. The narrator does not even desire to talk about the incidents: “in the last years of my life, scenes and happenings fraught with a terror doubly acute because I cannot wholly define it” (Lovecraft, 2024), but there is an urge to narrate what happened on October eighteenth and nineteenth, 1894 at the Norton Mine. The narrator wants to explain the transition of Juan Romero since the narrator desires everyone to know this supernatural and mysterious story even though it is hard to explain it for him.Lovecraft's use of atmospheric descriptions creates a sense of unease and dread as Romero's fascination with the ancient ring leads to their descent into a supernatural abyss beneath the mine. The bizarre and otherworldly events that unfold challenge the narrator's understanding of reality, culminating in Romero's disappearance and the narrator's struggle to make sense of the inexplicable horrors he has witnessed. The narrator’s ring appears as a gothic object in the story. After they discover the abyss, they try to understand what is going on. It is as if the abyss calls them and invites them. Then the narrator realizes: “... the ancient ring on my finger was glowing with eerie 838 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal radiance, diffusing a pallid lustre through the damp, heavy air around” (Lovecraft, 2024). At first, the narrator points out that they hear a noise and then go investigation. In a night the narrator hears a strange howling and pulsing sounds of ‘a creature’. The colour of the ring changes and Juan goes to the place where these sounds come. They realize “a new abyss yawned indefinitely below the seat of the blast; an abyss so monstrous that no handy line might fathom it, nor any lamp illuminate it” (Lovecraft, 2024). With Juan Romero, the narrator goes to “the infinite void” (Lovecraft, 2024) and Juan Romero is the leading one. Suddenly, Juan Romero shouts at him with dread and terror "Madre de Dios! - el sonido - ese sonido - oiga Vd! - lo oye Vd? - señor, THAT SOUND!" (Lovecraft, 2024). However, the narrator does not understand anything. Then the supernatural effect of the ring is explained by the narrator: “I realized that the ancient ring on my finger was glowing with eerie radiance, diffusing a pallid lustre through the damp, heavy air around” (Lovecraft, 2024). The reader understands that there is a strange relationship between the abyss and the ring.At the climax of the story, “the light from my ring was extinguished, and I saw a new light glimmering from lower space but a few yards ahead of me” (Lovecraft, 2024). When the light of the ring is extinguished, the narrator understands that Juan Romero is swallowed by the infinite void and the ring is lost. ‘God! I dare not tell you what I saw! … Some power from heaven, coming to my aid, obliterated both sights and sounds in such a crash as may be heard when two universes collide in space. Chaos supervened, and I knew the peace of oblivion. I hardly know how to continue, since conditions so singular are involved; but I will do my best, not even trying to differentiate betwixt the real and the apparent’ (Lovecraft, 2024)Juan goes into the abyss and disappears in the fire. The ring that guided with its light announces the death of Juan Romero when its shine faded. Even though the narrator narrates the incidents that happen at the Norton Mine, later he explains that these happenings are experienced only by him. All the other people are not aware of what he has undergone. Thus it is obvious that there is a supernatural event has occurred. The narrator at the end of the story thinks that everything was a dream.‘When I awakened, I was safe in my bunk and the red glow of dawn was visible at the window. Some distance away the lifeless body of Juan Romero lay upon a table, surrounded by a group of men, including the camp doctor. The men were discussing the strange death of the Mexican as he lay asleep; a death seemingly connected in some way with the terrible bolt of lightning which had struck and shaken the mountain. No direct cause was evident, and an autopsy failed to show any reason why Romero should not be living. Snatches of conversation indicated beyond a doubt that neither Romero nor I had left 839 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal the bunk-house during the night; that neither of us had been awake during the frightful storm which had passed over the Cactus range’ (Lovecraft, 2024) It is seen that all the events, all the screams, and all the fear are not perceived by the others. It is like a nightmare. All these events are inexplicable by mere reason.Through this tale of cosmic horror, and the use of the ring as a gothic object, Lovecraft explores the limits of human understanding and the fragility of the human psyche in the face of the unknown. The characters of Cheever’s short story, Jim and Irene Wescott live in an apartment building with their two children in New York. It is an upper-middle class family. At the beginning of “The Enormous Radio,” there is an old radio appearing as a gothic element in the way Cheveer describes it: ‘old instrument, sensitive, unpredictable, and beyond repair’ (Cheever, 2024). Neither Jim nor Irene understands the mechanics of the old radio, and when it falters, the only thing Jim can do is to strike the side of the cabinet with his hand. Sometimes this works out, sometimes not. That is why, in order to make his wife happy, after the old radio breaks down, Jim buys a new one because they are fond of listening to classical music as a couple and the radio is essential for Irene.The newly purchased radio is not as functional as expected. Jim purchases it to entertain his wife but at the end of the story, it is seen that it overthrows Irene. As soon as the radio enters the scene, there is a gradual change in mood and atmosphere. The scene suggests the presence of sinister influences disturbing the reader and exposing the feeling of discomfort. That is why, the new one is a gothic object. When the radio takes its place in the living room, Irene is disturbed by the presence of “the physical ugliness of the large gumwood cabinet” (Cheever, 2024) spoiling the harmony of the furniture since it does not blend with the living room's colours, which is crucial for Irene. Irene even chooses her clothes colour according to the furniture’s colour because she desires to be in harmony with her house. She is an obsessive woman. She hides radio behind the armchair. That is why, it is perceived as “an aggressive intruder” by her. Besides, when she switches it, an ornament falls from the table into the floor due to the “noise” that it produces. It creates noise, it is not a radio for listening to classical music or even any type of music. The sounds are an unpredictable producing a gothic atmosphere. The radio fails to give Irene a good first impression.On the second try, Irene listens to Mozart's quintet. Despite initially enjoying the quintet, she soon encounters interference, including crackling sounds in addition to other noises. Despite her attempts, she could not fix the problem, and the instrument is depicted as “powerful and ugly” (Cheever, 2024). It is like Irene feels the uncomfortable side of the radio even when she sees it for the first time. When Jim comes and tries to switch the radio, he has the same experience as Irene. "A man was 840 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal speaking on the station Jim had chosen, and his voice swung instantly from the distance into a force so powerful that it shook the apartment" (Cheever, 2024). It is not desirable to listen to music via the radio. It appears unbearable not only for Irene but also for Jim. They find it out of order, abnormal and uncanny; thus, they try to make it repaired. Furthermore, the radio is a supernatural element, representing the uncanny technology. It is “a radio whose ‘enormous’ power is its ability to broadcast not the standard range of programs available at normal frequencies, but instead, the private dramas enacted in each of the apartments in the Wescotts' building.” (Gerlach, 2024, p. 146-147) While Irene listens to Chopin, she hears a man's voice speaking to a woman. While the man and the woman are speaking obscenely, the couple continues to listen to them. Irene continues to listen to the conversations of the neighbours whenever she has time. They are afraid of the possibility of being heard by the others. Although listening to their neighbours’ conversations is not a problem for the couple, being heard by them is a problem. They do not have the feeling of guilt. They do not have moral dilemmas but they act amorally by listening to these private conversations. They wonder about the other people’s personal lives. Irene spends all of her spare time in front of the radio. She only listens to the radio. The radio represents uncanny technology by violating the privacies of the neighbours and revealing their secrets and troubles. It transmits the neighbours’ conversations to the Wescotts leading to an unpleasant atmosphere later. It becomes a supernatural intrusion, a common trope in gothic literature.After making sure no one heard them, they continue listening to the radio. Irene becomes curious about the lives of the other people’s, and so obsessed with the radio that at the end her husband points out that listening to the radio is like voyeurism and she should give it up. The radio isolates Irene from her environment because she does not desire to meet her friends and relatives. It causes obsession and isolation which are common themes in gothic literature. Through the conversations on the radio, the moral decay of the urban people is perceived because there is infidelity, addiction, mental illness, and lies. As Irene continues to listen to these conversations, she begins to experience psychological turmoil. She wants Jim to interfere because Mr. Osborn is beating his wife. She wants her husband to interfere in the lives of the people she is eavesdropping on. After that point the couple starts to argue; Irene asks Jim not to argue with her because she desires to be different from their unethical and unhappy neighbours. Irene differentiates his relationship with Jim by stating:“Don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t quarrel with me, ... All the others have been quarreling all day. Everybody’s been quarreling. They’re all worried about money. Mrs. Hutchinson’s mother is dying of cancer in Florida and they don’t have enough money to send her to the Mayo Clinic. At least, Mr. Hutchinson says 841 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal they don’t have enough money. And some woman in this building is having an affair with the handyman- with that hideous handyman. It’s too disgusting. And Mrs. Melville has heart trouble, and Mr. Hendricks is going to lose his job in April and Mrs. Hendricks is horrid about the whole thing and that girl that plays the ‘Missouri Waltz’ is a whore, a common whore, and the elevator man has tuberculosis and Mr. Osborn has been beating his wife. ... Life is too terrible, too sordid and awful. But we’ve never been like that, have we, darling? Have we? I mean, we’ve always been good and decent and loving to one another, haven’t we? And we have two children, two beautiful children. Our lives aren’t sordid, are they, darling? Are they? ... We’re happy, aren’t we, darling? We are happy, aren’t we?” (Cheever, 2024)She is aware of the fact that their neighbours are not proper people, yet according to Irene, she and Jim are normal because they are not cheating on each other, they do not quarrel, and the only thing that is important for them is not money, they are ethical people. As Gerlach states: “’Normal’ is compartmentalizing suffering or corruption so that we can consider ourselves above them; ‘normal’ is our desire to seek out the worst in others, to know the worst that can happen to them, while maintaining that we ourselves are different, untouched by what we are most curious to learn” (Gerlach, 2024, p. 148). In the story, Irene closes her eyes to their problems, she only talks about the problems of their neighbours. This is how she normalizes her relationship with her husband. Nonetheless, Jim is aware of their situation and does not place them above the others. He states that she is not an ethical person as well since she spends the money entitled to her sister. On the other hand, Jim is concerned about the money and he complains about the expenses of both the old radio and the new one. In fact, the couple is also concerned about the money like their neighbours. That is why, it is obvious that there is a lack of communication between Irene and Jim: “You’ve got to learn to handle the money I give you a little more intelligently, Irene ... You’ve got to understand that we don’t have as much money this year as we had last. I had a very sobering talk with Mitchell today. No one is buying anything. We’re spending all of our time promoting new issues, and you know how long that takes. I’m not getting any younger you know. I’m thirty-seven. My hair will be gray next year. I haven’t done as well as I hoped to do. And I don’t suppose things will get any better.” (Cheever, 2024) Jim emphasizes the fact that he is not young anymore and he will not be productive as he was before. There are also some economic problems. He pours out his heart, tells things he hasn't told his wife before and paints a pessimistic picture, and complains about Irene's spending too much. That is why, the radio serves as a turning point in their marriage, causing the man to reveal the things he keeps inside. She sees that her family has the same problems like the 842 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal neighbours. And her innocence is lost. It's as if Irene wakes up from a dream and encounters reality. And she undergoes an awareness; financial and family problems. Thus, the radio's ugliness symbolizes people's ugly lives.However, instead of taking into account what her husband says, becomes afraid of the fact that the other people will hear their conversation because this is how the radio works. If you do not hear others’ conversations, most probably the others hear your conversations. She has anxiety due to the radio, and even in her own house she does not feel safe and she has suspicions that she is being eavesdropped because this is what she does. It can be said that the radio as a gothic object creates a displeasing atmosphere, violates the privacy of the neighbours and leads Jim and Irene to quarrel. Conclusion From the Middle Ages, gothic has been associated with depressing, scary themes. Besides, the representation of dark, abandoned, and decaying places often takes place and there is a heavy reliance on symbolism. The characters, settings, and objects are closely related to symbolic meanings. Supernatural characters/beings such as vampires, monsters, demons, ghosts, witches, and supernatural objects are employed to highlight the dark atmosphere. H. P. Lovecraft in his “The Transition of Juan Romero” (2024) renders some strange occurrences at an intense mine, including the rhythmic throbbing from the depths and the inexplicable sealing of the abyss. All these hint at the supernatural forces at work. Romero who has an uncanny interest in the narrator’s Hindoo ring succumbs to the abyss, while the narrator experiences a moment of oblivion. The ring is a gothic object in the story.On the other hand, in John Cheever’s “The Enormous Radio” (2024) a newly bought, enormous, and expensive radio, representing uncanny technology, violating the happiness and privacy of the family by broadcasting the private conversations of the neighbours is a supernatural intrusion, a common trope in gothic literature, and it isolates its owners from their environment. In the two American short stories, the gothic clichés are used both to create a gothic atmosphere and to convey symbolic meanings. The stories reflect the anxiety about and the fear of the unknown, including the developing technology and old lore. 843 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal CONSERVATION OF VERNACULAR HOUSING IN RURAL SETTLEMENTS WITH TOURISM: NORTHERN CYPRUS CASE Abstract Vernacular housing architecture refers to buildings that are shaped by geographical location, climate, family structure, culture, and production-consumption patterns, and are built through experience. Vernacular houses are unique to the region they are located in, carrying forward past construction and living experiences to the present day. They are also ecological and sustainable structures with solutions that are appropriate to environmental, cultural, and economic conditions.In vernacular housing architecture concept is fundamental to typological approaches, revealing the spatial and formal configuration of the dwelling. The vernacular housing phenomenon defines traditional housing in a specific location outside of cities, arguing that the structures in that location are designed and organized with similar approaches.Vernacular housing architecture, which has the character of cultural heritage, establishes a link between the past and present of a society; it identifies the society; it is a value that is local and universal and it is a value that is worth conserving. The focus on cultural heritage should not only be on traditional and monumental architectural heritage at the urban scale, but also on vernacular architecture in rural settlement with a similar sensitivity.It is difficult to determine when settlement on the island of Cyprus first occurred. However, the earliest human remains found indicate that the first settlements on the island date back to the Neolithic period. Having hosted many civilizations since then, the island of Cyprus has a rich cultural heritage in both its cities and rural areas. The vernacular housing heritage is one of the most important of these valuable heritages.Vernacular housing heritage is highly valuable for cultural tourism. This study focuses on the conservation of this heritage on the island of Cyprus, based on the “ICOMOS Principles for the Analysis, Conservation and Structural Restoration of Architectural Heritage” adopted at the 14th ICOMOS General Assembly in 2003 and the “ICOMOS Charter for Cultural Tourism” adopted in 1999. The study also discuss the necessity and methods of protecting vernacular housing structures in Cyprus based on a literature review. Rural settlements in Northern Cyprus have been selected as the study area. Keywords: Cultural heritage, conservation, cultural tourism, rural settlements, vernacular housing. 846 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction The concept of locality can be said to encompass both the tangible and intangible aspects of a place, including its physical attributes and characteristics as well as its abstract and concrete values. Understanding and evaluating the concept of locality requires consideration of its historical, social, and cultural dimensions, as well as its political and psychological implications.The changing world order driven by rapid production and consumption relationships Post-Industrial Revolution has directly impacted the local / vernacular. Particularly, the concept of locality has been increasingly questioned and examined with the onset of the modernist movement, especially Post-Industrial Revolution. As the presentation of the 'modern' in place of traditional and local spread, every aspect of the local became subject to debate. Especially since the latter half of the 20th century, evaluations, activities, and action plans have been put forth to ensure that locality under the pressure of modernization is not lost. Vernacular housing architecture is shaped by geographical location, climate, family structure, culture, and production-consumption patterns (Günçe &at al., 2008). At the same time, these houses are developed and built through experience. Local housing carries the uniqueness of the region, bringing forward past building and living experiences to the present. These houses are referred to as ecological and sustainable structures due to their solutions suitable for environmental, cultural, and economic conditions.Vernacular housing, which carries the characteristic of cultural heritage, is significant in bridging a society's past and present. These houses, possessing both local and universal 'value' that identifies the community, are structures that need preservation. Just as awareness, care, importance, and sensitivity are required for traditional and monumental architectural heritage structures at the urban scale, the same should be extended to local architectural heritage.The island of Cyprus, with its rich cultural history, has hosted many civilizations (Günçe & Mısırlısoy, 2019). Therefore, the island has a rich cultural heritage in both its cities and rural settlements. Vernacular housing heritage is one of the most important components of this valuable heritage and should be preserved and sustained. Materials and Methods The transmission of vernacular housing heritage to future generations is necessary for the cultural continuity on the island. Conservation and perpetuation of this heritage are inevitable for it to be passed on to future generations. Alongside necessary restoration efforts, it is essential to revitalize these aging structures with new functions. Vernacular housing heritage represents structures with high potential for cultural tourism. Repurposing rural settlements and vernacular structures with cultural tourism functions is an important approach to sustain them. 847 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Vernacular houses, one of the most important components of architectural heritage in rural settlements, have significant potential for tourism purposes, especially for accommodation. Proper analysis of these houses is necessary to utilize this potential. Preserving authentic structures without compromising their integrity and repurposing them for cultural tourism is one way forward. Thus, tourists will not only experience rural settlements in various dimensions but also have the opportunity to stay in the authentic vernacular houses.A comprehensive literature review was conducted on locality, rural life, vernacular architecture, vernacular housing, cultural heritage preservation, and cultural tourism. Additionally, visits were made to rural settlements in Northern Cyprus. These visits involved detailed examinations of both the region and vernacular architectural heritage. Photographs of these heritages, sketches, and historical information were gathered, especially focusing on the houses.In-depth research was conducted to preserve this heritage, guided by the principles established in the ‘ICOMOS Principles for the Analysis, Conservation, and Structural Restoration of Architectural Heritage’ from the 14th General Assembly in 2003 (URL 01), and the ‘ICOMOS Charter on Cultural Tourism Principles’ defined in 1999 (URL 02) for the sustainable management of cultural tourism. In this study, rural settlements in Northern Cyprus were chosen as the research area, and the necessity and methods of preserving Cyprus' vernacular housing were discussed based on ICOMOS guidelines. Vernacular Housing Phenomenon From the very existence of humans until today, there has been a tendency to shape living environments according to needs, in other words, to create organized environments. The most straightforward observation of this can be made in local built environments. Described by various terms such as civil architecture, folk architecture, traditional architecture, architecture without architects, spontaneous, indigenous, primitive, ethnic, folkloric, anonymous, and regional architecture, "vernacular architecture" conveys the unique architectural language of a region (Paköz, 2017), reflecting its socio-cultural structure and natural-physical environment (Figure 1).One of the most important building blocks of vernacular architecture is undoubtedly the house, which is the spiral of human life. Originally arising from the need for shelter, this construct later became an indispensable part of life. The concept of vernacular housing has matured over the years through continuous and diverse experiences, adapting to local conditions and evolving through integration with the past. Concerning vernacular housing, the integration of ‘meeting human needs with simple solutions’, ‘utilizing existing local resources’ and 848 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ‘considering environmentally respectful design principles’ together contribute to the sustainable identity of such structures. Factors Determining Housing Form Environmental Factors Climate, Topography, Materials and technology available in nearest surroundings. Socio-Cultural Factors Working area and welfare level of the society, Familial structure (kinship) and neighbourliness, Religion, Way of living and behaviours. Figure 1. Factors Determining Housing Form - Developed based on Rapoport (Rapoport, 1969) Vernacular housing architecture is shaped by geographical location, climate, family structure, culture, and production-consumption patterns, and constructed through experiential knowledge. Vernacular housing not only carry the uniqueness of the region they are located in, preserving previous building and living experiences to the present day, but also provide ecological and sustainable solutions tailored to environmental, cultural, and economic conditions. The concept of locality in housing architecture forms the basis of typological approaches, revealing the shaping of the dwelling's space and form. While defining the vernacular housing dwelling in a specific location outside urban areas, local housing also suggests that structures in that area are similarly organized and constructed with comparable approaches.Vernacular housing, often situated in rural settlements and also referred to as vernacular homes, is characterized by being produced not by trained architect designers, but by experienced human hands, and organized in a natural manner. The significant role of local masters in the formation of vernacular housing, also described as architecture without architects, is emphasized (Rudofsky, 1964; Aran, 2000; Bektaş, 2001; Kozak, Evren, Çakır, 2013). The structure language (shape grammar) utilized by these masters and the norms they conceptualize are among the most critical elements of local housing. Besides being based on traditions, vernacular housing architecture in rural settlement is shaped by Environmental Factors and Socio-Cultural Factors (Figure 1). 849 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Assessment of Vernacular Housing as Cultural Heritage Culture encompasses the tangible and intangible elements shared by a society, including beliefs, values, and objects passed down to future generations, serving as a bridge between the past, present, and future. Cultural values tend to persist more strongly in rural life compared to urban areas, making rural settlements valuable sources of traditional values and significant cultural heritage.Not everything left by past generations constitutes 'heritage'. Objects reflecting tangible culture (such as structures, monuments, architectural works, archival materials, books, artworks, among others) and intangible culture (folklore, oral history, traditions, customs, cuisine, depictions, ceremonies, language, and knowledge) and believed to possess universal values are considered cultural heritage (URL 03).In the dynamic and advancing global landscape, dynamism and evolution persist as enduring characteristics. Urban areas undergo rapid changes, whereas rural communities undergo slower transformations, largely owing to their inherently conservative disposition. Rural settlements, along with their rich socio-cultural structure, undergo changes in demographic, economic, environmental, and spatial diversity over time, leading to the evolution of locality. Consequently, the definitions of 'rural settlements' and 'locality' change and evolve. This evolution inevitably affects the phenomenon of vernacular housing in rural settlements.Examining vernacular housing architecture within the historical and cultural context, the significance of the culture-space relationship and heritage values in the formation and organization of these structures is highlighted (Turgut 1989, Çahantimur 1997, Muşkara 2017). Vernacular housing architecture, with its documentary, historical, architectural, aesthetic, economic, and utilitarian values, constitutes an essential building block of our cultural heritage. However, this cultural heritage is at risk due to the changes in the life cycle of rural settlements in which they are located.The cultural heritage values outlined above underscore the importance of preserving this heritage. Cultural heritage possesses documentary value due to the information it contains and transmits to contemporary society. Through vernacular housing, it is possible to interpret and learn about various aspects of society, including its social, cultural, political, and economic characteristics, technical levels, trends, aesthetic approaches, lifestyles, rituals, and social norms (Ahunbay 1994, Kuban 1995). In a rapidly globalizing world increasingly tending towards uniformity, preserving the sustainability of societal identities and environmental characteristics is crucial. Vernacular housing architecture, as a significant cultural heritage transmitting values to future generations, encompasses both sustainability aspects. 850 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Especially in rural settlements, traditional housing heritage, when preserved alongside the geography and history, culture, and traditions of the local population, can maintain its original value holistically. Addressing the Relationship between Cultural Heritage and Tourism The acceleration of social and economic, or class-based, disparities among people, alongside changes, transformations, and developments in human rights; the widespread expansion of transportation, communication, and production; the emergence of tourism as a humanitarian need; have led to the emergence of 'Modern Tourism Paradigms' (Urry, 2002; Goeldner, Ritchie & McIntosh, 2000). The importance of tourism-related activities has rapidly increased in today's world, making tourism one of the prominent sectors.As a result of globalization, people's needs related to tourism have diversified, and new quests have gained momentum. These developments have led to a diversification and intensification of research on tourism (Urry, 2002; Stylianou-Lambert, 2011). It is observed that alongside the classical tourism known as sun, sand, and sea tourism, there is an increasing demand for alternative forms of tourism among individuals or groups participating in tourism activities. Among these types, 'Cultural Heritage Tourism' stands out. With the prominence of cultural tourism, the concept of 'culture' has become more debated. Thus, the value of 'Cultural Heritage Tourism' has increased, depending on both tangible and intangible values (Turok, 2009).Especially from the late 20th century to the beginning of the 21st century, tourism has evolved into a multi-dimensional phenomenon of significant ecological, economic, political, social, and cultural importance worldwide. The World Tourism Organization defines cultural tourism as the movement of individuals motivated by cultural factors such as participating in education, art, festivals, and events; visiting monuments and sites; exploring nature or folklore; and engaging in religious visits. The most significant difference that sets cultural tourism apart from other forms of tourism is its educational function. Culture encompasses what people think (attitudes, beliefs, ideas, and values), what they do (behaviours and ways of life), and what they create (architecture, artworks, handicrafts, and other cultural products). From this perspective, cultural tourism is not just about visiting places and monuments but also about learning about the way of life in the visited area.The Charter on the Management of Tourism in Cultural Heritage Areas, endorsed by ICOMOS in October 1999 during the 12th General Assembly in Mexico, highlights that heritage, encompassing both natural and cultural environments, belongs to all humanity, and understanding, appreciating, and protecting its universal values is the right and responsibility of every individual. It emphasizes: “Heritage is a broad concept that includes 851 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal landscapes, historic areas, sites, and built environments, as well as biological diversity, collections, ongoing and past cultural practices, knowledge, and life experiences. It narrates and records long historical development processes that form the basis of various national, regional, indigenous, and local identities and is an integral part of contemporary life. It is a dynamic reference point for growth and change, a positive tool. Cultural heritage and collective memory of every place and community are invaluable treasures, forming an essential basis for current and future developments."Especially towards the end of the 20th century, developments in world tourism have turned cultural heritage into a revenue-generating phenomenon. With an awareness of the necessity of preserving cultural heritage, indirect economic contributions should be made through tourism without commodifying cultural heritage. In this regard, principles have been established by ICOMOS (1999) for the healthy sustainability of cultural tourism. ‘The Principles of the Charter on Cultural Tourism' are listed as follows (URL 01): Principles of the Cultural Tourism Charter (URL 01) • Principle 1 - Since domestic and international tourism is among the foremost vehicles for cultural exchange, conservation should provide responsible and well managed opportunities for members of the host community and visitors to experience and understand that community's heritage and culture at first hand. • Principle 2 - The relationship between Heritage Places and Tourism is dynamic and may involve conflicting values. It should be managed in a sustainable way for present and future generations. • Principle 3 - Conservation and Tourism Planning for Heritage Places should ensure that the Visitor Experience will be worthwhile, satisfying and enjoyable. • Principle 4 - Host communities and indigenous peoples should be involved in planning for conservation and tourism. • Principle 5 - Tourism and conservation activities should benefit the host community. • Principle 6 - Tourism promotion programmes should protect and enhance Natural and Cultural Heritage characteristics. The Objectives of the International Cultural Tourism Charter are (URL 01): • To facilitate and encourage those involved with heritage conservation and management to make the significance of that heritage accessible to the host community and visitors. 852 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal • To facilitate and encourage the tourism industry to promote and manage tourism in ways that respect and enhance the heritage and living cultures of host communities. • To facilitate and encourage a dialogue between conservation interests and the tourism industry about the importance and fragile nature of heritage places, collections and living cultures, including the need to achieve a sustainable future for them. • To encourage those formulating plans and policies to develop detailed, measurable goals and strategies relating to the presentation and interpretation of heritage places and cultural activities, in the context of their preservation and conservation. In addition, • The Charter supports wider initiatives by ICOMOS, other international bodies and the tourism industry in maintaining the integrity of heritage management and conservation. • The Charter encourages the involvement of all those with relevant or at times conflicting interests, responsibilities and obligations to join in achieving its objectives. • The Charter encourages the formulation of detailed guidelines by interested parties, facilitating the implementation of the Principles to their specific circumstances or the requirements of particular organisations and communities. In light of these principles and ‘ICOMOS Principles for the Analysis, Conservation and Structural Restoration of Architectural Heritage’ adopted at the 14th ICOMOS General Assembly in 2003 (URL 02), must be conserved and kept alive. Only in the light of these approaches is it possible to convey this cultural heritage to future generations. Cultural assets attract the interest of people from different communities due to the values they carry. These works, which contain many experiences within their historical context, are important as objects of value for tourism. Despite their unique values and aging physical conditions, cultural heritage structures strive to stand upright and attract people from different parts of the world for various purposes. Therefore, these assets make significant contributions to tourism.Rural tourism can be defined as the totality of tourist activities conducted in a geography other than sea and mountain areas. Rural tourism is a type of tourism that is integrated with rural culture, natural environment, and agriculture, and can also be easily integrated with other types of tourism. Therefore, rural tourism, enriched with various local, 853 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal national, and international initiatives, can attract both local and foreign people to rural settlements for holidays (Soykan, 1999). In rural tourism, the rural world is presented to the tourist in all its aspects. During the tourist's stay, besides resting, it is possible to watch, participate, learn, and engage in various activities. The applicability of rural tourism in all four seasons increases the variety of activities. Moreover, the rural geographical environment is a unique place where many recreational activities based on outdoor activities can be carried out. Rural culture, on the other hand, encompasses different activities, all of which are specific to the region, and even if similarities are found, it is difficult to encounter the same elsewhere (Stojanović, & Denadić, 2020). Since tourists of sea tourism are tired of the same architecture and animations in all coastal facilities, they look for locality at least in food and music in the countries they visit. Rural tourism is the one that will provide them with authenticity (Soykan, 2003). An overview of the Vernacular Housing Phenomenon in Cyprus Due to its significant historical background, the island of Cyprus has hosted many communities with differences in religion, language, race, and thus their civilizations. Therefore, the island of Cyprus possesses a rich cultural heritage. A mobilization should be declared to preserve our country's rich cultural heritage.

On the island, traces of the Lusignan, Venetian, Ottoman, and British periods are still frequently encountered today. The richness of this multiculturalism has increased with each new period, akin to a ‘palimpsest’. 1- Room, 2-Depot, 3- Porch, 4-Kitchen, 5- Courtyard, 6- Animal Shelter, 7WC, 8- Oven Figure 3. An important example of the typology illustrating the vernacular housing scheme (Christou & et al., 1995). Figure 4. Vernacular Housing Examples from Rural Northern Cyprus. (Photo by K. Günçe) Based on the findings of numerous studies conducted on traditional Cypriot housing, it is evident that the ‘courtyard’, where many activities take place and where a significant portion of daily life unfolds, holds an important place in this typology. Thus, the courtyard, as a large open space, has emerged as a result of the subdivision into smaller enclosed spaces such as residential units. There are two main enclosed spaces: one is the living room, carefully 855 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal constructed to accommodate various functions and designed to protect against the short but harsh winters and scorching summers, and the other is the storage room, where seasonal food needs essential for life can be stored. Positioned between the open and enclosed spaces is a semi-open area, known as the canopy, which serves as a sun control element (Günçe, K. & at al., 2008). Rural settlements in Cyprus and the vernacular architectural examples produced here can be classified geographically into three categories: ‘Seaside - Coastal settlements’, ‘Mountain slopes - Hillside settlements’ and ‘Plains - Plain settlements’.In light of the research conducted by UNHCR, as depicted in Figure 3. (Christou & et al., 1995), the identified vernacular Cypriot housing layout constitutes a holistic structure from south to north, comprising open, semi-open, and enclosed spaces. The semi-open canopy space, referred to as the ‘canopy’, is situated between the open space termed the ‘courtyard’ and the enclosed space referred to as the ‘multi-purpose room’, ‘storage’ and ‘kitchen’. Consistent with the principles advocated by Altman, Sommer, and Zeisel, the concept of multifunctionality, implying the ability of designs to serve multiple purposes within the same space, has been effectively applied in traditional Cypriot housing (Altman, 1975; Sommer, 1969; Zeısel, 1984). The multi-purpose room accommodates various activities such as sitting, receiving guests, cooking, dining, and sleeping. One of the significant rooms in the east-west oriented house is the ‘storage’ room, where seasonal food and agricultural tools are stored. Adjacent to the storage is a small room called the ‘kitchen’, where food preparation and dishwashing tasks are performed, and utensils are stored. Additionally, in many houses, this room also serves as a ‘bathroom’ where water is heated for bathing. All these rooms open onto the south-facing canopy, establishing an indirect relationship between the rooms and the street. The courtyard, where a significant part of life unfolds, hosts various activities such as vegetable cultivation, food preparation for winter storage, annual cheese (halloumi) production, relaxation, cooking, dining, laundry, and other daily household chores. Furthermore, the courtyard houses shelters for pets, a toilet (also used as a bathroom), and an oven used for baking bread. When examining the typological characteristics of vernacular Cypriot housing, we encounter striking features that underscore the determining role of ‘Environmental Factors’ and ‘Socio-Cultural Factors’ (Günçe, K. & at al., 2008). 856 VI.

Günçe) Strategies for Conserving Vernacular Architecture in Rural Northern Cyprus through Tourism Preservation of cultural heritage is a multidimensional issue that requires knowledge and experience. The question of "what, why, and how should we preserve?" is the starting point of a nuanced debate with no single answer. These discussions, which remain relevant in many countries worldwide, lead to different outcomes in practice. However, the preservation of cultural heritage should not be about merely 'concealing' it but rather ensuring its continued existence and sustainability by allowing it to thrive and be passed down. Especially, the reuse and revitalization of many architectural heritage structures should be pursued.One of the most crucial components of cultural heritage is undoubtedly vernacular cultural heritage. Integrating vernacular cultural heritage with contemporary life is a significant factor in ensuring the cultural continuity of societies. The significant destruction experienced by many European cities after World War II was a crucial factor in the development of the concept of conservation. The "Conference on the Conservation of the Identity and Attractiveness of Settlements and Natural Environment Settings," organized by UNESCO in 1962, was an early measure concerning the preservation of rural and associated natural environments (Eres, 2013; Muşkara, 2017). The Venice Charter, published in 1964, established principles that are still accepted today, particularly regarding architectural reconstruction, restoration, and repair (ICOMOS, 1964). In the 1980s, with the expansion of the concept of conservation, approaches to the preservation of vernacular architectural heritage also broadened. By the 1990s, rural architectural heritage began to be evaluated as a whole with its surrounding natural environment, shaping the concept of cultural heritage (Eres, 2013; Muşkara, 2017). In 2003, during the 14th General Assembly of ICOMOS, 857 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal the Principles for the Analysis, Conservation, and Structural Restoration of Architectural Heritage were adopted (URL 04). This document holds significant importance in the realm of architectural heritage and addresses the challenges posed by structures with historical and material significance.In order to ensure the conservation of the unique values of rural settlements in Northern Cyprus and their transfer to the future, the planning process of protection must be carried out with the participatory approaches of all stakeholders. In this context, rapid steps need to be taken to establish a sustainable relationship between cultural tourism and conservation. It is emphasized that the areas to be protected are different for each conservation area, as stated in the European Charter for Sustainable Tourism in Protected Areas by the EUROPARC Federation. Therefore, it is emphasized that this should be addressed at the local level (URL 05).In line with these conclusions, the general principles for the conservation of rural vernacular dwellings and other cultural heritage in rural settlements are (URL 05): ‘preservation and enhancement of natural and cultural heritage’, ‘improvement of the quality of the tourism experience’, ‘increasing community awareness’, ‘development of area-specific tourism activities’, ‘organization of information and education programs for all stakeholders’, ‘support and preservation of the quality of life of the local population’, ‘promotion of social and economic development at the local level’ and ‘control of tourist numbers’.In addition to these principles, the conservation process for vernacular housing heritage in rural North Cyprus should encompass research, documentation, diagnosis, analysis, interpretation, determination of conservation approaches, definition of intervention measures, implementation, and monitoring activities. These activities should be based on the principles outlined in the ICOMOS (1999) ‘The Principles of the Charter on Cultural Tourism’ (URL 01). Therefore, conservation efforts for vernacular housing heritage in North Cyprus should be redeveloped to serve cultural tourism.ICOMOS conduct numerous studies on the preservation, sustainability, and development of vernacular structures in rural settlements for tourism purposes. Within the framework of the ‘World Heritage and Sustainable Tourism Program’, ICOMOS has introduced a new approach that integrates tourism and heritage management planning at the destination level, values and protects natural and cultural assets, develops sustainable tourism, and represents a new approach based on dialogue and stakeholder collaboration. Studies demonstrate that 'cultural tourism' is one of the suitable models for rural settlements in Cyprus, given the richness of cultural heritage. In this context, within the framework established by ICOMOS, determining the shape and implementation methods of 'cultural tourism' is inevitable, but it should be done without forgetting local values. 858 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Conclusion The concept of cultural tourism transcends merely socio-economic value, representing a national asset capable of facilitating socio-cultural interaction with the people constituting rural culture, while also serving as a prime means for representing a nation's inherent values. These values, coupled with a serene ambiance, attract the interest of not only urban populations but also foreigners desiring to acquaint themselves with authentic and unique cultural values and local livelihoods. Cultural heritage and tourism are intricately intertwined, necessitating the preservation and enhancement of both natural and architectural assets for the continuity of tourism (Kiper & et al., 2006; Kalaycı & Özçatalbaş, 2021). Consequently, sustainability, creativity, locality, and authenticity emerge as indispensable concepts to be concurrently upheld in rural tourism.While globalization endeavors to foster a ubiquitous popular culture across all spheres, there exist domains where its influence has yet to reach, preserving original values. Among these, rural settlements that uphold societal values and coexist with these values assume paramount importance. Vernacular housing architectural spaces, reflecting rural life, serve as vital reservoirs for the preservation of traditional values and their transmission to future generations.Vernacular housing, as manifestations of rural life, symbolize a period and way of life with their local and regional architectures. Concurrently, the vernacular architectural heritage in rural areas symbolizes various cultural, social, economic, and political phenomena. Thus, the preservation and perpetuation of cultural values and vernacular architectural heritage are pivotal for sustaining the memory of Cyprus.To safeguard the vernacular architectural heritage in rural Cyprus, ‘cultural tourism’ should increasingly be perceived as a positive force. In alignment with the principles and approaches delineated by ICOMOS, the primary objective should entail the preservation, sustenance, and transmission of the unique values of every settlement in rural Cyprus to the future. In this regard, the evaluation of 'Cultural Tourism' as a tool necessitates the implementation of participatory approaches in the conservation planning process. Urgent steps must be taken to establish the nexus between sustainable tourism, cultural heritage, and conservation. Accordingly, traditional structures constructed using conventional methods to fulfill spatial needs should cease their physical deterioration and be imbued with new functions to foster continued vitality.

Bu anlamda okul öncesi eğitim kurumlarında çocukların motivasyonu, verimliliği, fiziksel ve bilişsel gelişimi açısından fiziksel koşullar önem arz etmektedir. Okul öncesi eğitim kurumlarındaki sınıflar ve eğlence alanları, çocukların etkinlik, grup çalışmaları, sunu, gösteri gibi birçok faklı eylem alanlarını oluşturmalıdır. Bu sebeple okul öncesi eğitim kurumlarındaki ders ve etkinlik alanlarındaki kullanılan mobilyaların kullanım açısından esneklik arz etmektedir. Ayrıca mekanın fiziksel ortam öğeleri olan mobilyaların, öğrencilerin verimliliği, konsantrasyonu ve sağlığı açısından optimum konfor koşullarında olması önemlidir.Okul öncesi eğitim kurumlarındaki eğitim ve eğlence mekânları ergonomik tasarım prensiplerine uygun olarak tasarlanması gerekmektedir. Okul öncesi eğitim kurumlarındaki kullanılan mobilyaların ergonomik tasarım prensiplerine uygunluğunu analiz etmeyi ve bulgulara bağlı olarak iç mekân tasarımından dikkat edilmesi gereken tasarım prensiplerine ilişkin öneriler sunmayı amaçlayan bu çalışma kapsamında İstanbul ilinde bulunan iki okul öncesi eğitim kurumlarında inceleme çalışması yapılmıştır. Çalışma neticesinde İstanbul ilinde mevcut biri özel biri kurumsal olmak üzere iki farklı okul öncesi eğitim kurumlarında kullanılan mobilyaların ergonomik açıdan çok önemli farklılar olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Özel kurumda kullanılan malzemeler ile kurumsal olan mekândaki boyutsal anlamda farklılar bulunmaktadır. Kurumsal olan eğitim kurumunda kullanılan mobilyalar ve malzemeler okul öncesi eğitim kurumunda eğitim gören çocuklar için uygun standartlarda olmadığı, bu sebeple kurumdaki çocukların eğitim ve eğlence açısından olumsuzluklar barındırdığı görülmüştür.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INVESTIGATION OF CHILDREN'S EDUCATIONAL PLACE FURNITURE IN TERMS OF ERGONOMICS Abstract Preschool education institutions, which are the first step of institutional education, are places where children spend a significant part of their time. In this sense, physical conditions are important in terms of children's motivation, efficiency, physical and cognitive development in pre-school education institutions. Classrooms and entertainment areas in pre-school education institutions should create many different action areas for children, such as activities, group work, presentations and demonstrations. For this reason, the furniture used in lesson and activity areas in pre-school education institutions is flexible in terms of usage. In addition, it is important that furniture, which is the physical environment elements of the space, be in optimum comfort conditions for students' productivity, concentration and health.Education and entertainment spaces in pre-school education institutions should be designed in accordance with ergonomic design principles. Within the scope of this study, which aims to analyze the compliance of the furniture used in pre-school education institutions with ergonomic design principles and to offer suggestions regarding the design principles that should be taken into consideration in interior design, depending on the findings, an examination study was carried out in two pre-school education institutions in Istanbul.As a result of the study, it was determined that the furniture used in two different pre-school education institutions in Istanbul, one private and one institutional, had significant differences in terms of ergonomics. There are dimensional differences between the materials used in private institutions and corporate spaces. It has been observed that the furniture and materials used in the institutional educational institution are not of appropriate standards for children studying in the pre-school education institution, and therefore have negative effects on the education and entertainment of the children in the institution.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Hayatın vazgeçilmez bir parçası olan eğitim, bireyin ilk eğitimi bebeklik döneminde ailesi ile başlar, daha sonra eğitmenler vasıtasıyla eğitim kurumlarında devam eder. Çocuklar toplumların geleceğe uzanan merdiven basamaklarıdır. Geleceğin teminatı olan çocuklarımızın iyi bir eğitim alması için gerekli şartların oluşturulması tüm toplumun sorumluluğundadır. Eğitim-öğretim hayatı belirli yaş grubuna gelindiğinde devlet tarafından verilmektedir. Türkiye’de ilk eğitim devlet tarafından zorunlu bir şekilde verilmektedir. Devlet kontrolünde gerçekleşen eğitimin sağlanması ve silsile şeklinde teşkilatlanması adına eğitim-öğretim, devletin Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı’nca ilgili kanun ve yönetmelikler çerçevesinde sağlanmaktadır. Türkiye’de Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı tarafından belirlenen zorunlu eğitim belirli kriterlerle yaş gruplarının belirlenmesi, öğrencilerin yaş grubuna göre sınıflandırılması ve aynı ortamda eşit eğitim alabilmesi standartlar belirlenmiştir. Türkiye’de MEB tarafından eğitimin başlama tarihi olarak eylül ayı referans alınırken, yaş olarak 57 haftalık olan çocuklar anaokulu veya okul öncesi eğitim kurumlarında eğitim-öğretime başlamaktadır. Ancak gerekli şartların sağlanması ve ailenin isteği doğrultusunda 36 haftalık iken de okul öncesi eğitim-öğretime başlanabilmektedir (Resmi Gazete 2019. Erişim Tarihi: 25.04.2024 18.00).Çocuğun güven içerisinde olduğu ev ortamından ayrılıp günün önemli bir kısmını geçirdiği mekânların başında okul öncesi eğitim kurumları gelmektedir. Okul öncesi eğitim kurumları genellikle 3-6 yaş aralığındaki yaş grubuna yönelik eğitim-öğretim sunmak amacıyla hizmet vermektedir. Burada önemli olan mesele çocukların 0-6 yaş dönemin diğer yaş dönemlerine göre ayrıcalık göstermesidir. Erken çocukluk dönemi olarak tanımlanan bu dönemde bilişsel, fiziksel, duygusal ve sosyal gelişim kişinin sonraki hayatındaki gelişimi için temel teşkil etmektedir (Kepekçi Yetkin, 2021).Birey karakter, ilgi ve isteklerin gelişmesi de bu dönemde gerçekleşmektedir. Birey için hayatının şekillendiği bu dönemde verilmesi gereken eğitimin niteliği ve önemini daha da arttırmaktadır. Bireyin gelişiminde eğitimin kalitesi, kurgulanan eğitim sistemine bağlı olduğu kadar bu kurgunun doğru ve etkili bir şekilde hayata geçirilmesini sağlayacak ortamların, mekânların tasarlanması ve ortaya konulmasına bağlıdır. Bir eylem gerçekleştirilirken eylemin gerçekleştiği mekan, mekanın kullanıcı ile ilişkisi ve kullanıcıya verdiği destek ve sağladığı konfor koşulları eylemin kalitesini, elde edilen sonuç ürünü, dolayısıyla da kullanıcı memnuniyetini doğrudan etkilemektedir (Bilgiç ve Surur, 2016).Okul öncesi eğitim kurumları; ilgili bakanlıkların belirlediği tip projeler kapsamında il müdürlüklerince uygun görülen alanlara inşa edilmektedir. Okul öncesi eğitim kurumlarının fizyolojik ve psikolojik yeterlilikleri, ergonomik özellikleri, bulunması gereken mekanlar, 865 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal kullanıcıların tercihlerine göre nasıl şekillenmesi gerektiği, mekanlardaki alan yeterlilikleri, kullanıcı ve mekan ilişkisi, kullanıcının talepleri ve bu taleplerin mekanlara nasıl uygulanabileceği gibi konuların araştırılması ve incelenmesi önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışmada da çocuk eğitim mekanları mobilyalarının ergonomik açıdan incelenmesi üzerine gerçekleşmiştir. Ergonomi Tanımı Ergonomi kavramı anlam olarak en temel haliyle uygunluk anlamında gelmektedir. Kavram köken olarak Yunanca olup “ergo” ve “nomos” kelimelerin birleşmesiyle oluşan ergonomi sözcüğünde; “ergo” kelimesi iş kavramı, “nomos” kelimesi ise yasa kavramını karşılamaktadır (Tokat, 2018). Temel anlamda iş yasası olarak kelime karşılığı bulunan ergonomi kavramının Türkiye’deki karşılığı ise iş bilimidir (İsmailoğlu, 2016). Bunların yanında Türkçede ergonomik kavramının karşılığı kullanışlı ve elverişli olarak geçmektedir (Türk Dil Kurumu TDK, Erişim Tarihi: 28.04.2024).Çeşitli bilim dallarından edinilen veriler doğrultusunda insan yapısının ergonomisi belirlenmiş, bu kurallar çerçevesinde belirli kategorilere ayrılmıştır. Ergonominin al dalları anatomi, fizyolojik, psikolojik, antropoloji, nöroloji ve davranış bilimleri olarak sınıflandırılır (Doğan, 2007). fizyoloji nöroloji psikoloji anatomi davranış bilimi antropoloji Ergonomi Çizim 1. Ergonomi ve diğer bilim dallarıyla ilişkileri (Doğan, 2007). Her şeyden önce ergonomi, incelemelerden elde edilen verileri derleyip sonuç elde eden bir yöntemdir. Teknolojik ve yaşambilimsel verileri içermektedir. İş metotlarının, araç gereçlerin ve geniş anlamda çevrenin, insanın yapısına, işlev ve yetilerine göre tasarlanmasına yardımcı olmaktadır. İnsan değiş çevreyi değiştirir (Doğan, 2007).Ergonomik veriler doğrultusunda belirlenen tasarım ilkeleri, yapılacak olan tasarımın “insan için tasarım” ilkesinden hareketle benimsendiğini göstermektedir. Tasarımlarda, evrensel ergonomik faktörlerin dışında, bireysel özellikler de yer almaktadır. Kişiden kişiye farklılık gösteren bu özellikler, mekan 866 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal kullanıcılarının kendilerine yönelik tasarımlarla mekanı şekillendirmesine sebep olmaktadır. Burada önemli olan her kullanıcının kendi mekanında kendi kurallarının yer almasıdır. Bu da evrensellik genellemesinde bizi yeni boyutlar, estetik kaygılar çıkmaktadır (Albayrak, 2012). Ergonomide temel yaklaşım, insanın fizyolojik ve psikolojik özelliklerine ilişkin veri ve bilgilerin, toplanmasıdır. Bu bilgilerin toplanmasındaki amaç, daha sonra çeşitli eşya, araç, gereç, donanım ve fiziki çevre tasarımında, kişilerin rahatını, sağlığını ve üretkenliklerini arttıracak şekilde kullanılmasıdır (Aykal ve Günyel 2010).Ergonomi araştırmaları gerçekleştirilirken gerekli parametreler incelenmektedir. Bunlar antropometri, çalışma ortamı ve fiziksel çevre, iş ve işyeri düzenleme, ergonomik tasarım ve ergonomik yaklaşım olarak sıralanabilir (Eryılmaz, 2015). Tasarlanan mekanların ölçüleri, aydınlatması, havalandırılması, tefrişleri, konumları gibi özelliklerin tasarlanması ve ergonomide erişebilirlik ve kullanılabilirlik açısından değerlendirilmesi yapılırken, insan ölçeği referans alınmaktadır. İnsan ölçeğinden kasıt mekanların ve tasarımların kullanıcıları olan bireylerin antropometrik değerleridir (Kepekçi Yetkin, 2021). Ergonominin Amacı Bireylerin erkek-kadın, çocuk-yaşlı, üretici-tüketici, sakat-sağlam olmalarına göre farklı özellikleri bulunmaktadır. İnsanlar doğumları ile birlikte Çevre koşulları ve dış dünyadaki birçok durum ve araçla etkileşim ve ilişki içerisine girmektedirler. Ergonomi tasarımda insan merkeze alan bir bilim dalıdır. Temelde hayatın insana uygun hale getirilmesini amaçlamıştır (Shapanis, 1983). Ergonominin iki temel amacı bulunmaktadır: Tablo 1. Ergonominin Temel Amaçları 1. Yürütülen işin etkililiğini ve etkinliğini artırmaktır: Kişi ile makineler arasındaki temel fark insanların hata yapmasıdır. Kişilerin hata nedenleri incelenecek olursa hatalar azaltılabilir. Bu yolla sistemin verim ve etkinliği yükselmektedir. 2. Çalışanların refahının artırılmasıdır: Güvenliğin ve teknoloji kullanım rahatlığının artırılması, operatörün yorgunluğunu azaltmakta ve kişilerin yaşam kalitesini yükseltici etki yapmaktadır. Kaynak: Güler, 2012. Ergonomi Biliminin Gelişimi İnsanın araç-gereç ve donanımların kullanımını daha kolay ve faydalı hale dönüştürmek üzere asırlardır değişiklikler ve yeni eklemeler yapılmaktadır. Örneğin taş devrinde taştan daha sonra 867 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal hayvan kemiklerinden yapılan ara-gereçler ele tutulur bir şekilde biçimlendirilmiştir. Yine endüstri devriminde işlerin daha verimli ve kolay yapılabilmesi için birçok yeni icatlar, araç ve makinalar geliştirilmiştir. Lakin tüm bunlar “ergonomi denilebilecek bir bilimsel disiplin yaklaşımı içinde gerçeklememiştir (Bridger, 1995)İş sağlığı konusunda işçilerin yanı sıra işyeri ve çevresinin de değerlendirilmesi gerektiğini ileri süren ilk kişi Ramazanni’dir. Ramazanni işçi sağlığı ile ilgili hastalıkları ve olası zararları araştırırken günümüzde ergonominin yaptığı benzer yöntem ve yaklaşımlar kullanmıştır. Kullandığı sistematik yaklaşımlar arasında her işin teknik analizinin yapılması, hastalık patolojisinin klinik yönlerinin değerlendirilmesi, kaynak taramsı, iş yeri ile ilgili düzenlemeler ve iyileştirmeler yer almaktadır (Tunçez, 2017).Ergonomi kavramı ilk olarak Polonyalı Profesör W. B. Jastrezebowski tarafından 1857’de yayımlanan bir makale ile bilim dünyasına tanıtılmıştır. Frederick Taylor 1900’lü yılların başında “Taylorism” olarak bilinen yaklaşımıyla endüstri işçilerinin seçimine yoğunlaşırken aynı zamanda insan kaynakları ve yöneylem yöneticilerince günümüzde de kullanılan çalışma yöntem ve standartlarına da ağırlık vermiştir. İşin talebine göre insan kısıtlılıklarını ve yeteneklerini de değerlendirmiştir. 1939-1945 yılları arasında ergonomi bir disiplin ve meslek haline gelme sürecini tamamlamıştır (Güler 2012).1952 yılında İngiltere’de “Ergonomic Society”, 1957 yılında ise ABD’de “Human Factor Society” kurulmuştur. Daha sonra çeşitli ülkelerde ergonomi dernekleri kurulmaya devam etmiştir. 1990’lı yıllara gelindiğinde İngiltere’de “elle yük kaldırılmasına yönelik minimum güvenlik ve sağlık gereksinimleri” ile “ekranlı araçlarda çalışmanın minimum güvenlik ve sağlık gereksinimleri” direktifleri yayınlanmıştır (Tekbaş 2004). Ülkemizde ise 4857 sayılı iş yasası 2003 yılında yürürlüğe girmiştir. Yine “Ekranlı araçlarla çalışmalarda sağlık ve güvenlik önlemleri hakkında yönetmelik”, “Elle taşıma işleri yönetmeliği” ve “İş sağlığı ve güvenliği yönetmeliği” gibi yönetmeliklerle ergonomi sözcüğü ilk kez yasada yer almış ve bu alanda çeşitli düzenlemeler yapılmıştır (Esmaeılzadeh 2008). Ergonominin Sınıflandırılması Ergonomi, geniş bir perspektife sahip olan ve çalışma ortamlarındaki etkileşimleri inceleyen bir disiplindir. Bu disiplin, genellikle fiziksel, bilişsel ve örgütsel olmak üzere 3 ana kategoriye ayrılır (Saygı, 2019): 1. Fiziksel ergonomi: Fiziksel ergonomi, çalışanların fiziksel çevreleriyle etkileşimlerini inceleyen bir alt dal olarak kabul edilir (Saygı, 2019). Bu kategori, işyerindeki ekipmanlar, araçlar ve çalışma ortamının tasarımını kapsar (Doğan vd., 2022). Bu şekilde, ergonomik mobilyalar, doğru yükseklikte masa ve sandalyeler gibi fiziksel unsurların optimal düzenlemesi sağlanarak çalışanların konforu ve performansı artırılır. 868 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 2. Bilişsel ergonomi: Bilişsel ergonomi, çalışanların zihinsel süreçleri, bilişsel işlevleri ve bilgi işleme kapasitelerini inceleyen bir alanı temsil eder. Bu kategori, görev karmaşıklığı, bilgi işleme hızı, öğrenme süreçleri gibi zihinsel faktörleri ele alır. Bu bağlamda, kullanıcı arayüzlerinin anlaşılır ve kullanıcı dostu olması, bilgi akışının düzenli ve etkili olması bilişsel ergonominin odak noktalarındandır (Doğan vd., 2022). 3. Örgütsel (Organizasyonel) ergonomi: Örgütsel ergonomi, işyerindeki örgüt yapısını, liderlik tarzlarını, iletişim ve iş düzenlemelerini inceleyen bir alanı ifade eder (Saygı, 2019). Bu kategori, çalışanların işyerindeki ilişkilerini, iş bölümünü, motivasyonu ve örgüt kültürünü değerlendirir. Bu şekilde, bir organizasyonun verimliliği, çalışan memnuniyeti ve iş süreçlerinin düzenliliği üzerinde etki sağlanır (Saygı, 2019). Bu üç ana kategori, ergonominin geniş kapsamını anlamamıza yardımcı olarak, çalışma ortamlarının daha etkili, güvenli ve verimli olması için çeşitli faktörleri ele almaktadır. Ergonomi İç Mimarlık İlişkisi Mekan, algıya bağlı bir deneyimdir; sayısız farklı biçimde algılanabilir. Her deneyim ise farklı olsa da temelde ortak bir noktası bulunur. Bu nokta da “ilişkisel varoluş”tur. Denetim sürekli oluşmaktadır. Çünkü canlı varlık ile çevresel koşulların etkileşimi “denetim” sürecinde var olmaktadır. Mekanın algılanmasında kişisel denetim ve beceriler ile gözlem yapma, algılama, ayrıntıyı fark etme ve hayal gücünü kullanma gibi temel gereksinimler bulunmaktadır. bu gereksinimler ile mekana dair bilgiler, algılayan bireyin biriktirdiği her türlü deneyim ile bilişsel bir süreçte işlenerek anlamlandırılır (Nayeb ve Ark., 2021.; Asar, 2013).Ergonomi, insanlar arasındaki etkileşim ve sistemin diğer ögelerini anlama ile ilişkili bilimsel disiplin, kişilerin mutluluğunu ve tüm sistemin performansını en iyi hale getirmek için teori, ilke, veri ve metotlar uygulayan bir meslektir (Dul ve Weerdmeester, 2003).Bir mekânın ergonomik olması, kullanıcıların o mekanı sağlıklı bir şekilde kullanmasını sağlamaktadır. İç mekanı şekillendiren donatı ve mobilyaların ergonomik tassarımda kullanıcının antropometrik boyutları önem taşımaktadır. Bu da antropometrik ölçüleri, en çok kullanılan ergonomik verilen haline getirmektedir. (Kayış ve Özok, 1991). Mimari tasarım kullanıcısı “insandır.” Bir mekanın boyutu; içinde bulunacak insan sayısına, eşyalra, kullanış amacına ve içinde yapılacak eylem türüne göre, eylemin gerçekleştirilmesi için gerekli eşya, donatı ve makinalar gibi sabit ya da hareketli eşyanın boyutlarına, bunların bakım ve işletilmesi için gerekli alanlara, çalışma koşullarının gerektirdiği cihaz ve tesisat için gerekli olan ve hacimlere ve benzer gereksinimlerin gerektirdiği genişlik, uzunluk ve yüksekliklere bağlı olarak saptanır. Tüm bu 869 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal unsurlar saptanmasındaki temel kaynak ortalama insan ölçüleridir (Nayeb ve Ark., 2021). Bu bilgiler ışığında iç mimarlık ve ergonomi tasarımın tam anlamıyla insan için olması için önemli kriterlerdir. Eğitim Mekanlarında Ergonomi Ergonomi kavramı uyumu, uygunluğu simgelediği gibi okul öncesi eğitim mekanlarında da ergonomi okul ve kullanıcılar arasındaki uyumu ifade etmektedir. Okulda verilen eğitim öğretim faaliyetleri öğrencilerin özelliklerine uygun şekilde tasarlanan yapılarda verilmesi gerekmektedir. Yani yapının ergonomik olması verilen eğitimin kalitesini artırmakta ve öğrencinin eğitim-öğretim sürecine önemli katkılar sağlamaktadır. Yine okul öncesi eğitim kurumlarındaki öğrencilerin, yapıdaki mekanlarda geçirdiği zamanın kalitesi ve memnuniyeti, yapıdaki ergonomik tasarımlarla doğru orantılıdır. Okul öncesi verilen eğitim ve öğretimde, gerçek hayatın taşıdığı önemi ve yaklaşımın temel ilkelerinin, çocuk ergonomisine uygun olarak eğitim mekanlarına nasıl yansıtılacağı konusu, mimari disiplini yakından ilgilendirmektedir. Sınıf ortamında ortak kullanım alanlarına, hatta okulun bir bütün olarak tasarlanmasında iç-dış mekan iletişimin oluşturulmasında, mekanlardaki öğrenci-öğretmen iletişimini destekleyici donatıların tasarlanmasında mimari disiplininin varlığı gerekmektedir (Kelpekçi Yetkin, 2021).Okul öncesi eğitim kurumlarında ergonomi bilimi, kullanıcılarının fiziksel ve ruhsal açıdan problemlerini belirlemek ve çözüm getirmek amacıyla da kullanılmaktadır. Bir öğrenme ortamı planlandığında fiziksel çevre koşullarının göz önünde bulundurulması ergonominin bir gerekliliğidir. Öğrencilerin başarısına doğrudan etki eden fiziki ortamları; mekanın büyüklüğü, öğrenci sayısı, mekandaki donatıların örgütlenme biçimi, esnek kullanım imkanın olup olmaması, öğrencilerin kullandıkları mobilyaların onların antropometrik boyutlarına uygunlu, görsel, işitsel ve ısısal konfor koşulları, renk ve doku özellikleri, ortamın temizliği gibi birçok faktör göz önüne alınarak okul öncesi eğitim kurumlarında ergonomi kapsamında değerlendirilmektedir (İsmailoğlu, 2016.; Kepekçi Yetkin, 2021). Materyal ve Metot Çalışmanın bu bölümünde materyal ve metot hakkında bilgi verilmiştir. Materyal kısmında çalışma alanının genel tanıtımı verilmiştir. Metot kısmında ise çalışmada uygulanan bilimsel araştırma teknikleri anlatılmıştır. 870 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Materyal Çalışmada değerlendirmelerin yapıldığı mekanlarda bulunan mobilyaların tanıtımı yapılmıştır. Çalışma kapsamında değerlendirilen mekanlar, İstanbul ilinde bulunmaktadır. İstanbul Türkiye’nin Marmara bölgesinde bulunan önemli bir şehirdir. İstanbul ilinde kamu ve özel yüzlerce okul öncesi eğitim kurumu bulunmaktadır. Çalışmamızda İstanbul ilinde bulunan okul öncesi eğitim mekanlarından iki tanesi örnek seçilmiştir.Bunlardan ilki Özel Başakşehir Final Okulları Anaokulu Hakkında okuludur.Özel Başakşehir Final Okulları Anaokulu Özel Başakşehir Final Okulları Anaokulu, çağdaş ve modern eğitim imkanlarının sağlandığı bir kurum olarak İstanbul’da hizmet vermektedir. Öğrencilerin keşfedilmeyi bekleyen ayrı bireyler olduğunu benimseyen, toplumsal ve duyusal gelişimleri destekleyen, keşfetmeye dayalı bir eğitim modeli yürütülmektedir. Öğrencilerin ilkokula adaptasyonunu hızlandıracak okul öncesi etkinlikler yapılmaktadır. Öğrenciler; beden eğitimi, görsel sanatlar, drama, müzik, satranç, dans, seramik gibi uygulamalı dersler sayesinde ilgi ve yetenekleri dahilinde kendilerini geliştirme imkanı bulmaktadır. Uygulamalı dersler sayesinde öğrencilerin dayanıklılık, koordinasyon, iletişim, yaratıcılık, takım çalışması ve gözlem yeteneği gelişmektedir. 871 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Özel Başakşehir Final Okulları Anaokulu, “FinaLingual” adı verilen çift dilli eğitim programı ile İngilizce yabancı dil eğitimi vermektedir. İngilizce derslerini, yabancı ve Türk öğretmenler beraber yürütmektedir. Bu program sayesinde öğrenciler; oyunlar oynayarak, yaparak, yaşayarak, sürekli tekrar ederek ve maruz kalarak erken yaşta yabancı dil edinmektedir. Kurumda; sanat, sosyal bilimler, fen, tasarım, matematik gibi derslere ait kavram ve terimler de İngilizce dilinde öğretilmektedir. İngilizce okuma, dinleme, yazma ve konuşma becerilerinin ana dil düzeyinde olması hedeflenmektedir. Özel Başakşehir Final Okulları Anaokulu; “FinalMaker” programı dahilinde, öğrencilerin gereksinim duyduğu becerileri oyun temelli bir modelleme ile sunmaktadır. Öğrenciler; adım adım problem çözme ve algoritmik düşünme yetenekleri edinmektedir. Öğrenciler küçük yaşta kodlama dünyası ile tanışmakta, küçük yaştan itibaren dijital dünyaya hazırlanmaktadır. Bunlardan ikincisi İvat Turhan Anaokulu okuludur. İvat Turhan Anaokulu İvat Turhan Anaokulu İstanbul İli Sultangazi İlçesinde bulunan İvat Turhan İlkokulu ile aynı binada yer almaktadır. Çocukların gelişim düzeyleri, ilgi alanları ve ihtiyaçlarına göre hazırlanan eğitim programı, bilimsel bilgiyi ön plana çıkaran, sanatsal ve kültürel etkinliklere önem veren, yaratıcılığı destekleyen eğitim anlayışı ve aile katılımına olan desteği ile ulusal ve uluslararası düzeyde bilinen ve tercih edilen bir kurum olmaktır. İvat Turhan Anaokulu’nda, öğrenciler, bilgiyi ezbere dayalı olarak değil, araştırarak, sorgulayarak, yaparak ve yaşayarak edinirler. Çocuklar, özdisiplini ve benlik saygısı gelişmiş, toplumda birey olarak yer aldığının farkında olan, paylaşımcı, kendini ifade edebilen, sorumluluk sahibi, kendi haklarını korurken başkalarının haklarına saygı gösteren, gelenek ve göreneklerimize karşı duyarlı, doğayı koruyan ve Atatürk ilke ve devrimlerine bağlı bireyler olmak üzere eğitim alırlar. 872 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Metot Çalışma kapsamında öncelikle konuyla alakalı literatür taraması yapılmıştır. Yapılan araştırmada elde edilen bilgilere göre belirlenen; ergonomi, iç mimarlık ergonomi ilişkisi, eğitim mekanlarında bulunan mobilyaların ergonomik açıdan incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma alanı olarak belirlenen İstanbul İlinde bulunan okul öncesi eğitim kurumlarda yapılan gözlemler sonucunda Okullarda uygulanan plan şemalarının benzerlikleri göz önüne alınarak iki farklı plan şemasına sahip biri özel diğeri kamuya bağlı okul seçilmiştir. Belirlenen okulların, mekan tasarımında kullanılan mobilyaların ergonomik tasarımları incelenmiş ve analiz edilmiştir. Yapılan araştırmalar, gözlemler, incelemeler ve ölçümler sonucunda elde edilen veriler sistematik bir şekilde çalışmada yer almıştır. Çalışma kapsamında ortaya konulan sonuçlar doğrultusunda değerlendirmeler yapılarak, seçilen okul öncesi eğitim mekanlarındaki mobilyalarda belirlenen olumlu ve olumsuz uygulamalar ifade edilmiş, olması gereken kriterlerin yürürlükteki mevcut tasarım kriterlerine nasıl entegre edileceği konusunda değerlendirilmelerde bulunulmuştur. Bulgular ve Tartışma Sınıflar Araştırma kapsamında incelediğimiz Özel Başakşehir Final Okulları Anaokulu bünyesinde bir İngilizce sınıfı, bir ilkokul hazırlık sınıfı ve iki anasınıf olmak üzere toplam dört sınıf bulunmaktadır.

Mobilyaların Ergonomik Açıdan İncelenmesi Masalar ve Sandalyeler Her iki okul içerisinde farklı modellerde ve farklı sayılarda masa ve sandalyeler bulunmaktadır. 873 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 1. Özel Başakşehir Final Okulları Anaokulu masa (Akbayır, arşiv 2024). Şekil 2. Sultangazi İvat Turhan Anaokulu masa. Yapılan ölçümler ve incelemeler doğrultusunda Final anaokulundaki sıra/masanın boyutları yuvarlak olarak dizayn edilmiş yapı itibari ile masanın çapı 78 cm’dir. Ayrıca 52 cm yüksekliğe sahiptir (Şekil 1). Ergonomik açıdan bakıldığında 4-5 yaş grubu öğrencilerinin oturma göğüs hizası olan 41-9-54.3 cm aralığı ölçülerine uygun olduğu görülmektedir. Ahşap malzemeden yapılmış olan yuvarlak masa çeşitli etkilerde öğrencilerin ortak çalışma yapmaları için elverişli olduğu görülmüştür. Yapılan ölçümler ve incelemeler neticesinde İvat Turhan anaokulundaki sıra/masanın boyutları 4 kişilik olarak dizayn edilmiş, yapı itibari ile kullanım alanı 0,72 cm2’dir. Ayrıca yerden yüksekliği 58 cm yüksekliğe sahiptir (Şekil 2). Ergonomik açıdan bakıldığında 4-5 yaş grubu öğrencilerinin oturma göğüs hizası olan 41,9-54,3 cm aralığı ölçülerine uygun olmadığı görülmektedir. Ancak mevcut sıra/masa öğrencinin kullanımına yeterlidir. Bunun yanında sıra/masanın 4 kişilik olduğu göz önünde bulundurulduğunda 0,18 cm2 alan düşmektedir. Bu da her etkinlik için uygun bir alan olmadığını göstermektedir. Ayrıca sıra/masının yerden yüksekliği de ergonomik açıdan gerekli üst sınır olan 54,3 cm’nin üzerindedir. Bu da öğrencinin masa kullanımı açısından antropetrik ölçümler açısından uygun değildir (Tablo 1). 874 VI.

Şekil 3. İvat Turhan Anaokulu sandalye Yapılan ölçümler ve incelemeler doğrultusunda Final anaokulundaki sandalyelerin ölçüleri oturma alanı 0,0841 m2’dir. Ahşap malzemeden yapılmış sandalyeler antropometrik açıdan standart oturma bacak boyu ölçüsü26,2-32,5 cm ölçülerine uygun olduğu görülmüştür. Yapılan ölçümler ve incelemeler doğrultusunda İvat Turhan anaokulundaki sandalyelerin ölçüleri oturma yüksekliği 30 cm, oturma alanı ise 25*25 cm/ 0,0625 m2’dir. Plastik malzemeden yapılmış sandalye antropometrik açıdan standart oturma bacak boyu ölçüsü 26,2-32,5 cm 875 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ölçülerine uygun olduğu görülmüştür. Her iki okulda da kullanılan sandalyeler ergonomik açıdan birbirine yakın olup, Final okullarındaki ahşap sandalyelerin oturma alanları daha geniştir. Buna karşın İvat Turhan anaokulundaki plastik sandalyelerin tasarımı daha vücut yapısına göre daha rahat bir oturma sağlamaktadır. Dolaplar Sınıf içerisinde bulunan dolaplar öğrencilerin eğitim sürecinde farklı zaman dilimlerinde kullanabilecekleri malzemelerin saklandığı, kişisel eşyalarının konulduğu genel olarak sınıfın duvarlarının olduğu bölümlere yerleştirilmiş mobilyalardır. Ergonomik açıdan antropometrik ölçüler göz önüne alındığında bu dolapların tasarımları çocuklara özel hazırlanmalıdır. Her iki okulda da farklı boyutlarda birçok dolaplar bulunmaktadır. Bu dolapların bazıları kapaklı bazıları ise kapaksız şekilde dizayn edilmiştir. Her bir öğrencinin kendisine ait bir dolap kullanım alanı mevcuttur. Şekil 4. Final Anaokulu Öğrenci Dolapları Şekil 5. İvat Turhan Anaokulu Yapılan inceleme ve ölçümler sonucunda Final Anaokullarında bulunan sınıf içerisindeki dolaplar 62 cm yüksekliğe 122 cm genişliğe ve 37 cm derinliğe sahiptir. Dolaplar genel olarak 24 yüksekliğinde ve 48 cm en genişliğine sahiptir. Her öğrenciye ait dolap fotoğraf ve isimlik ile belirlenmiştir. Dolaplar kapaksız şekilde tasarlanmıştır. Dolaplar ergonomik açıdan incelendiğinde 4-6 yaş grubundaki çocukların boy ölçüsü olan 92-114 cm’nin biraz altında olduğu görülmektedir. Nitekim bu boy aralığında olan çocuklarındaki eşyalarını alacakları 876 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal zaman dolabın içerisini görmeleri için eğilerek bakmaları gerekmektedir. Bunun yanında dolapların ahşap malzemeden yapılmıştır. Her dolap bulunduğu duvara sabitlenerek gerçekleşebilecek kazaların önüne geçilmiştir. Yapılan inceleme ve ölçümler neticesinde İvar Turhan Anaokulu’ndaki dolapların yüksekliği 120 cm, 30 cm genişliğe ve 35 cm derinliğe sahiptir. Dolaplar genel olarak 30*30 cm kullanım alanına sahiptir. Her öğrenciye ait dolaplar kapakların üzerine resim ve isimlik şeklinde etiketlenmiştir. Dolaplar ergonomik açıdan incelendiğinde 4-6 yaş grubundaki çocukların boy ölçüsü olan 92-114 cm uygun bir tasarım olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Aynı zamanda 4-6 yaş grubundaki çocukların ayakta el uzama mesafesi 110,4-136,8 cm ölçülerine göre kullanımı uygundur. Her iki okuldaki dolap tasarımları birbirinden farklı olarak tasarlanmıştır. İncelenen dolaplardan Final Anaokulunda bulunan ahşap dolaplar, İvat Turan Anaokulu’daki MDF malzemeden yapılan dolaplara göre daha az kullanışlı olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Sınıflar Her iki anaokulu mevcut ilkokul binasının giriş katında yer almaktadır. Final Ana Okulu’nda 4 adet ana sınıfı, İvat Turhan Ana Okulu’nda 3 adet sınıf bulunmaktadır. Her iki okulda da sınıflar çok amaçlı salon olarak kullanım özelliğine sahiptir. Her iki okulunda bulunan sınıflar doğal havalandırma ve aydınlatma sağlayan pencerelere sahiptir. Şekil 6. Final Anaokulu Sınıf Ölçüleri 877 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 7. İvat Turhan Anakulu sınıf ölçüleri Yapılan inceleme ve ölçümler neticesinde Final Anaokulu’nda sınıf ölçüleri ortalama 10 m2 ölçülerindedir (Şekil 6). MEB tarafından belirlenen standartlar incelendiğinde anaokullarında sınıflar ortalama 15 m2 ve kişi başına 1,5 m2 düşecek şekilde tasarlanması uygun görülmüştür. Final okullarındaki mevcut sınıflar 10 m2 olup sınıflar 20 kişiliktir. Bu da standartların aşıldığını göstermektedir. Sınıfların mevcut yükseklikleri ise 3.8 m’dir. Standartlara uygundur. Ayrıca sınıfta doğal aydınlatma ve havalandırmayı sağlayan 2.163 cm x 1.852 cm ölçülere sahip iki tane pencere bulunmaktadır (Şekil, 8). Şekil 8. Final Anaokulu sınıf pencereleri Yapılan inceleme ve ölçümler neticesinde İvat Turab Anaokulu sınıf ölçüleri ortalama 13 m2 ölçülerindedir (Şekil 7). MEB tarafından belirlenen standartlar incelendiğinde anaokullarında sınıflar ortalama 15 m2 ve kişi başına 1,5 m2 düşecek şekilde tasarlanması uygun görülmüştür. Sınıfın tacan yüksekliği 3.7 m olup standartlara uygundur. İvat Turhan Anaokulundaki mevcut sınıflar ortalama 13 m2 olup sınıflar 12 kişiliktir. Bu da standartların uygun olduğunu göstermektedir. Ayrıca sınıfta doğal aydınlatma ve havalandırmayı sağlayan 100 cm x 200 cm 878 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ölçülere sahip dört tane pencere bulunmaktadır (Şekil, 9).Yapılan incelemeler doğrultusunda Final anaokulunun sınıfları öğrenci sayısına göre uygun değilken, İvat Turhan anaokulunda bu oran öğrenci sayısına göre daha uygundur. Ayrıca her iki kurumdaki sınıfların tavan yükseklikleri 3 m’nin üzerindedir. SONUÇ Çocuklar, insanlığın geleceğinin teminatıdır. Onların yetişmesinde ve eğitilmesinde tüm insanlık için büyük önem taşımaktadır. Eğitim hayatlarının bir kısmını okul kurumlarında geçiren çocukların, en uygun şartlarda eğitim almasını sağlamak yetişkinlerin temel görevleri arasındadır. Uygun koşulların sağlanması çocukların aldığı, alacağı eğitim kalitesi ve verimi açısından çok değerlidir. Çalışma kapsamında İstanbul ilinde bulunan Bahçeşehir Final Anakolu ve Sultangazi Avit Turhan Anaokulu sınıfları ve mobilyaları ergonomik açıdan incelenmiştir. Çalışmanın sınırlılığı kapsamında biri özel diğeri devlet olmak üzere farklı özelliklere sahip iki anaokulu yapısı incelenmesinde; çocukların kullandıkları sınıflar, masa, sandalye ve dolaplar ergonomik açıdan ele alınmıştır.Çalışma kapsamında iki anaokulu sınıfları ve mobilyaları incelenerek ölçümleri yapılmıştır. Elde edilen veriler verilere ve literatür taraması sonucunda ulaşılan; olması gereken standartlara, çalışmanın içerisinde sistematik bir şekilde yer verilmiştir.Her iki okulda yapılan incelemeler sonucu sınıfların boyutları standartlara uygun olmadığı tespit edilmiştir. Ancak İvat Turhan Anaokulunda bu denge öğrenci sayısının az tutulması ile ideal kullanım sağlanmıştır. Final anaokulunda ise standartlara göre daha küçük olan sınıf öğrenci sayısının 20 olması ile daha az kullanım alanı sunmaktadır.Her iki okulda da kullanılan masa, sandalye ve dolaplar antropometrik açıdan incelendiğinde 4-6 yaş grubundaki çocuklara uygun tasarlandığı, ancak Final Anaokulunda kullanılan dolapların standartların altında bir yüksekliğe sahip olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu bağlamda, yapılan araştırmalar ve çalışmalar sonucunda, anaokulu yapılarının tasarımında; çocukların ergonomik konforunun önemsenerek yapılmasının bir zorunluluk olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Ancak çocuklara yönelik ergonomik konforun önemsenerek tasarım yapılmasının yetkili merciler tarafından zorunlu tutulmadığı tespit edilmiştir.Çalışma sonucunda; yapılan araştırmalar ve incelemeler ışığında, anaokulu yapıları için kullanıcı memnuniyeti ve ergonomik kriterler gözetilerek yapılan tasarımlarda olması gereken, eksikliğinin ise yaptırım sonucunu beraberinde getirmesi gereken tasarım kriterleri önerilmiştir. *Plan tasarımlarında tek katlı yapılar tercih edilmeli, çok katlı yapıların çözümünde kullanılan merdivenler çocukların antropometrik özelliklerine göre tasarlanmalıdır. 879 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal *Mekânların büyüklükleri okulun en üst düzey öğrenci kapasitesine hizmet verecek şekilde planlanmalıdır. *Plan şemaları doğal aydınlatmadan en üst seviyede yararlanacak şekilde tasarlanmalıdır. *Yapıların tefriş elemanları çocukların antropometrik özelliklerine uygun seçilmedir. *Tasarımlar bölgenin coğrafi ve kültürel şartları gözetilerek yapılmalıdır. *Yapıların tasarım aşamasından önce o bölgede bulunan örnek okullar incelenmeli, kullanıcılarla görüşmeler yapılarak mevcut durumlarda meydana gelen sıkıntılar saptanmalı ve tekrarlanmamasına önem verilmelidir. 880 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal CONCEPT CARTOON DEVELOPMENT PROCESS of TEACHER CANDIDATES Abstract Concept cartoons are instruments that articulate scientific events derived from daily life through different perspectives and visual support. They serve the purpose of eliciting students’ thoughts on a given concept, fostering discussions, identifying cognitive uncertainties, detecting misconceptions, and revealing diverse perspectives and ideas. Concept cartoons can be developed through conventional methods such as pen and paper, as well as with the aid of web 2.0 tools designed to assist in creating concept cartoons in a digital environment. The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of a computer-supported concept cartoon development training program provided to prospective science teachers as part of the Tübitak 2237 Training Project. A total of 24 prospective teachers from 13 different universities in Türkiye actively participated in this online training, which lasted a total of 24 hours. In the scope of the training, computer-supported concept cartoons in the field of science education were created using two different web 2.0 tools and an application: storyboardthat, pixton, and cartoon animator. Throughout the development process, guidance was provided by experts in science education and educational technologies, and the products were subsequently evaluated by these field experts at the end of the process. The data collection tool employed in the research was the “Concept Cartoon Evaluation Form,” comprising indicators for “adequate,” “partially adequate,” or “inadequate” levels. Research results were scrutinized in terms of the areas and competencies in which concept cartoons were developed. Based on this evaluation, recommendations were formulated for future training programs.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction During primary school, students are introduced to concepts related to science and technology for the first time in science classes. This period is important for the attitude that students will develop towards science, the profession they will choose in the future, their interest in science, self-confidence and motivation. Accordingly, one of the teaching materials that will make science and technology lessons more fun and interesting are concept cartoons (Eroğlu, 2010, Şenocak, 2018). Concept cartoons are tools that can convey a scientific event taken from daily life, from different perspectives, with various visuals (Atasoy, 2017; Kara, 2017).These tools can be used to reveal students’ thoughts about a concept, to encourage discussion, to detect ambiguities and misunderstandings in their minds, and to enable different views and thoughts to emerge (Balım et al., 2015; Erdoğan and Özsevgeç, 2012). Visuals in concept cartoons increase students’ interest in the course and helps create a comfortable learning environment for them to express themselves more easily. Concept cartoons related to science teaching can be prepared in three ways: with pen and paper in hand, by rearranging ready-made images and with computer aid. The fact that hand drawings require skill and the ethical issues in the use of ready-made images are difficulties in creating such concept cartoons. On the other hand, it is said that computer-aided cartoons offer richer content (Pınarkaya,2017). While preparing computer-aided concept cartoons, web 2.0 technologies and animation creation applications are frequently used (Aydın, 2015; Can and Usta, 2021; Kruit and Bredeweg, 2020; Tatlı et al., 2016). It is known that the use of Web 2.0 and its tools increases students’ interest and motivation in the course, positively affects course achievement, and contributes to the development of 21st century skills and the elimination of misconceptions (Akbaba and Ertaş Kılıç, 2022, Arslan and Yıldırım, 2021; Can, 2021; Gürleroğlu and Yıldırm, 2022; Karakuzu, B., Saraçoğlu and Bektas, 2023; Urooj, and Farooq, 2023). For this reason, web 2.0 tools appear as an effective alternative in the development of concept cartoons. These tools, which do not require much technical infrastructure in the computer environment, can be used for educational purposes and have a user-friendly interface (Arıcı, 2023). Content prepared with these tools, which help to easily create concept cartoons online without drawing skills, can be easily turned into a material and shared (Lornsen, 2010; Gürsoy and Göksun, 2019).Science teacher candidates will be able to prepare concept cartoons of their choice whenever needed, using web 2.0 tools. This will contribute to the development of their professional competence and selfconfidence (Timur et al., 2021). 884 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal In this study, the process of developing computer-aided concept cartoons using web 2.0 tools is explained. The purpose of the study is to share the computer-aided concept cartoon development process given to science teacher candidates within the scope of Tübitak 2237 training and to evaluate the products that emerged as the results of the training program. Method In this study, the concept cartoon development process of science teacher candidates is presented in detail. Additionally, the data collection tool and data analysis process used to evaluate the products resulting from the training are explained. Process The “Computer-aided concept cartoon development course for science teacher candidates”, which was offered within the scope of the research and supported within the scope of Tübitak 2237 activities, was held online. During the event, which lasted a total of three days, a total of 24 hours of training was provided, eight hours each day. Operation of the training program is shown in Figure 1. Figure 1. Operation of the training program As seen in Figure 1, the training was carried out online via a videoconference application. Education was carried out in a single room for group events where all participants were in the same environment, and in lower rooms for events to be held in groups. The planned activity consists of 4 basic stages. The aim of the first stage was to create a theoretical infrastructure on information technologies basic competencies, misconceptions in science education and concept cartoons. In the second stage, web 2.0 tools for assessment purposes determined within the scope of the project will be introduced by CEIT field experts in the environment where all participants are present simultaneously. At this stage, CEIT field experts will provide 885 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal introductions to the relevant tools through interfaces, purpose of use and sample applications. In the third stage, using web 2.0 tools introduced by CEIT field experts, participants will be asked to develop content that can be used in assessment specific to their fields. At this stage, participants will be sent to four sub-rooms on the Zoom platform. Each subroom will include two science education experts and two CEIT field experts. In this process, a total of 4 experts working in 4 sub-rooms will carry out the process. In the fourth and final stage, the contents produced will be evaluated by relevant field experts and the contents will be improved by providing feedback to the participants.On the first day of the event, after the opening ceremony and project introduction, the teacher candidates were introduced to the program accompanied by creative drama. Then, prospective teachers were instructed about digital competence and finally, sessions were held on concepts, misconceptions and concept cartoons in science. At the end of the first day, the participants were divided into groups and each group was given misconceptions to work on by experts in the field.On the second day of the event, StoryboardThat and Pixton, web 2.0 tools used to create two-dimensional concept cartoons, were introduced, respectively. First, the StoryboardThat tool was introduced by CEIT field expert. After the interface, elements, and product creation features were explained, the participants were sent to the previously determined sub-rooms with their groups. Each subroom can be considered as independent virtual workspaces. In these subrooms, groups developed concept cartoons using StoryboardThat on the identified misconceptions. During this process, the participants were accompanied by both IT field experts and science field experts. Afterwards, the same process was completed for the Padlet tool. At the end of the day, a free time activity was created for the participants to complete their work, and the completed concept cartoons were shared with the whole group at the end of the day and evaluated by field experts. On the third day of the event, Cartoon Animator software, which can be used to prepare concept cartoons based on animation, was introduced to the participants, followed by sound editing software for voice-over. The process of developing concept cartoons took longer with this software, which is more complex than Web 2.0 tools. Participants working in the sub-rooms completed their concept cartoons during free time activities and the products were shared with the whole group. As on the second day, the developed products were evaluated by field experts. At the end of the training, each group developed concept cartoons with StoryboardThat, Pixton and Cartoon Animator. A total of eighteen concept cartoons were created. 886 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Participants In this study, where six Computer and Instructional Technologies (CEIT) field experts and five Science (FB) field experts participated as instructors, 24 volunteer teacher candidates received training.

It is noteworthy that the cartoon scores, which are partially adequate, are 2.2 or 2.3.When evaluated in terms of web 2.0 tools and application used four of the concept cartoons prepared with the Cartoon Animator application were in the “adequate” category, two in the “partially adequate” category, four of the concept cartoons prepared with the StoryboardThat tool are in the “adequate” category, two in the “partially adequate” category, and two of the concept cartoons prepared with the Pixton tool are in the “partially adequate” category.When examined in terms of the scores received, it is seen that the concept cartoons prepared with the Cartoon Animator application received the highest scores. The second group, in particular, received a full score of 3.0 from five field experts. This group is followed by the third (x=2.5), fourth (x=2.5) and first (x=2.4) groups, respectively, with sufficient scores. The screenshot of the concept cartoon prepared by the second group is presented in Figure 2. 889 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Figure 2. Screenshot of the concept cartoon prepared with the Cartooon Animator application In this research, it is seen that animated concept cartoons received higher scores. This may be because the participants enjoyed preparing a material containing animation more. In their study with pre-service teachers (2019), Gürsoy and Göksun stated that web 2.0 tools with animations are more liked by pre-service teachers. Tatlı et al. (2016) also found similar findings. The fifth group (x = 2.5) received the highest score in concept cartoons prepared with the Pixton tool. This group is followed by the fourth group (x=2.4). Figure 3 shows the concept cartoon prepared by the fifth group with this tool. Figure 3. Concept cartoon made with Pixton tool Concept cartoons made by the participants with the Pixton tool were the cartoons that received the lowest scores. 890 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal During the development of these cartoons, it was observed that the participants had difficulty in placing the characters and speech bubbles. This may have caused them to reflect the problem situation and experience negativities in the visual design. Research in the literature indicates that the process of concept cartoons developed using the Pixton tool is entertaining and motivational (Yağcı, 2019; Bay&Bademci, 2022). The second group received the highest score in the concept cartoons prepared by the participants using the StoryboardThat tool (x = 2.8). This group was followed by the third group (x=2.5), the first and fifth groups (x=2.4), respectively. The concept cartoon prepared by the second group is presented in Figure 4. Figure 4. Concept cartoon made with StoryboardThat tool In general, it can be considered as an important success that the concept cartoons prepared received scores in the "sufficient" and "partially sufficient" categories. Because the participants developed all the cartoons in a few hours on an online platform with group friends they had never met before. In cartoons with low scores, participants may not have been able to create the backgrounds or characters they wanted in this short time. Additionally, they may have had difficulty reflecting the problem situation presented in the concept cartoon.It is known that computer-aided concept cartoons attract students’ attention and motivate them (Göksu, 2014; Yamık, 2015; Yürekli, 2020). Preparing computer-aided concept cartoons was a new experience for the participants. It is possible that teacher candidates with this experience will benefit from these materials in their professional lives. 891 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Conclusion and Recommendations This study was carried out within the scope of Tübitak 2237 Training. A total of 24 science teacher candidates working in the groups of four took part in the training. Trainings were given online by science field experts and other field experts. While the introduction of theoretical sections and applications in educational planning was carried out in a single virtual classroom, the concept cartoon development process took place in six sub-rooms under the guidance of field experts. Concept cartoons were made on the second and third days of the training. Using the tools introduced in this process, each group developed a concept cartoon. At the end of the training, a total of 18 concept cartoons were prepared for science achievements.These developed concept cartoons were evaluated by four science and three field experts. It was observed that the computer-aided concept cartoons developed by the participants in a short time were at an "adequate" level.The training is limited to 3 days. Concept cartoons were prepared during the training. By preparing with a longer-term training, the time for participants to develop computer-aided concept cartoons can also be increased. These concept cartoons can be evaluated. Trainings can be restructured by taking participants’ opinions and suggestions regarding the process. It was observed that the prepared computer-aided concept cartoons received low scores in the problem presentation dimension. This issue can be emphasized more in theoretical presentations.It has been observed that the Cartoon Animator application has a complex structure. In the trainings animated concept cartoons can be created with another easier-to-use tool and evaluated. 892 VI.

Bu kapsamda ulusal düzeyde son 10 yılda yapılmış çalışmalar incelenmiştir. Araştırmamız derleme bir çalışma olup, google akademik, pubmed ve web of science veri tabanlarında yayınlanmış tam metnine ulaşılabilen çalışmalar dahil edilmiştir. Bireysel spor davranışı çağdaş tarihsel bir perspektiften inceleyerek, sporda öne sürülen gelişmelerin sporla uğraşanların mikro düzeyinde ne ölçüde gözlemlenebileceğini incelemektedir. Takım sporları karmaşık spor disiplinlerine aittir ve karmaşıklıkları, hareketlerin ve durumların zorlu yapısında, antrenman ve müsabaka sırasında başarılı olabilmek için oyuncuların sahip olması gereken birçok özellikte kendini göstermektedir. Bireysel ve takım sporlarında kuvvet antrenmanının yetişkinler için güvenli ve etkili bir kondisyon yöntemi olduğu kanıtlanmıştır ve artık giderek daha fazla sayıda çocuk ve ergenin de sağlıklarını, kondisyonlarını ve spor performanslarını geliştirmek için antrenman yaptıkları görülmektedir. Kuvvet antrenmanı vücut kütlesini arttırmak, yumuşak doku yaralanma riskini azaltmak ve core stabilitesini geliştirmek amacıyla potansiyel olarak faydalıdır. Kuvvet antrenmanı, koşmaya dayalı aktivitelere göre atlama hareketlerinde daha fazla performans artışı sağlar ve bu başarılar motor göreve göre değişiklik gösterir. Uygun antrenman kuralları takip edilirse, gençlere yönelik kuvvet antrenmanı programına düzenli katılım, kemik mineral yoğunluğunu artırma, motor performans becerilerini geliştirme, spor performansını geliştirme ve genç sporcularımızı antrenman ve rekabet taleplerine daha iyi hazırlama potansiyeline sahiptir. Literatüre bakıldığında bireysel ve takım sporlarında kuvvet ölçüm testleri en fazla el pençe kuvveti, dikey sıçrama, mekik, şınav, sırt kuvveti, bacak kuvveti, durarak uzun atlama gibi ölçümler yapılarak ölçülmüştür.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal STRENGTH MEASUREMENT TESTS IN INDIVIDUAL AND TEAM SPORTS Abstract The purpose of this research is to examine strength measurement tests in individual and team sports. In this context, studies conducted at the national level in the last 10 years were examined. Our research is a compilation study, and studies with full text published in Google Scholar, Pubmed and Web of Science databases are included. By examining individual sports behavior from a contemporary historical perspective, it examines to what extent the proposed developments in sports can be observed at the micro level of those involved in sports. Team sports belong to complex sports disciplines, and their complexity is reflected in the challenging nature of movements and situations, as well as in the many characteristics that players must possess in order to be successful during training and competition. Strength training in individual and team sports has proven to be a safe and effective form of conditioning for adults, and more and more children and adolescents are now also training to improve their health, fitness and sports performance. Strength training is potentially beneficial for increasing body mass, reducing the risk of soft tissue injury, and improving core stability. Strength training provides greater performance improvements in jumping movements than in running-based activities, and these achievements vary by motor task. If proper training guidelines are followed, regular participation in a youth strength training program has the potential to increase bone mineral density, improve motor performance skills, enhance sports performance and better prepare our young athletes for the demands of training and competition. When we look at the literature, strength measurement tests in individual and team sports are mostly measured by measuring hand claw strength, vertical jump, sit-ups, push-ups, back strength, leg strength, standing long jump.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Çoğu spor dalında başarı, kuvvet ve güç dahil olmak üzere fiziksel uygunluk özelliklerine büyük ölçüde bağlıdır. Antrenman programlarını tasarlarken, uygularken ve izlerken hangi mekanik değişkenlerin performansı belirlediğini tespit etmek de önemlidir. Gençleri fiziksel olarak aktif olmaya teşvik etmek önemlidir. Yaşamın erken dönemlerinde hareketsiz bir yaşam tarzının yetişkinliğe kadar uzandığı görülmekle birlikte, çocukluk ve ergenlik döneminde fiziksel olarak aktif bir yaşam tarzı, yaşamın ilerleyen dönemlerinde bazı kronik hastalıkların önlenmesine de yardımcı olabilir. Çocuk ve ergenlerin oyun, spor, iş, ulaşım, rekreasyon, beden eğitimi veya planlı egzersizin bir parçası olarak haftanın tüm günlerinde veya çoğu günlerinde fiziksel olarak aktif olmaları önerilmektedir (1, 2). Bireysel spor müsabakalarında fizyolojik izlemenin uygulanmasına büyük değer verilmektedir. Fizyolojik izleme, egzersiz dozu-yanıt, egzersiz yoğunluğu ve egzersiz performansı hakkında geri bildirim sağlar. Sporcular genellikle uygun antrenman yükünü tahmin etmek, aşırı antrenmanı taramak ve antrenörlerin antrenmanı sporun fizyolojik talepleriyle eşleştirmesini sağlamak için çeşitli fizyolojik ve performans izleme yöntemleri kullanılarak değerlendirilir (3-5). Yaş, ırk, cinsiyet ve kondisyon düzeyindeki benzerliklere rağmen, bireyler aynı antrenman veya müsabakaya farklı tepkiler verebilir. Bu nedenle, antrenman ve müsabakaların bireysel olarak izlenmesi çok önemlidir (6). Takım sporları karmaşık spor disiplinleri arasında yer alır ve karmaşıklığı, hareketlerin ve durumların zorlu doğasına ve oyuncuların antrenman ve müsabaka sırasında başarılı olmak için sahip olması gereken birçok özelliğe yansır. Dahası, tüm bu özellikler oyuncuların rekabetçi verimliliklerinden sorumlu olan bütünsel hazırlıklarının bir parçası olmalıdır. Takımın sahada daha etkili olabilmesi ve olumlu sportif sonuçlar elde edebilmesi için takımdaki tüm bireylerin birbiriyle uyum içinde olması gerekir. Bu temel nedenlerden dolayı takım sporlarında spora hazırlık sistemi son derece karmaşık ve zahmetlidir (7). Literatürü değerlendirdiğimizde birçok bilim insanının kuvvet kavramını aynı anlama gelen farklı ifadelerle tanımladığı görülmektedir. Fizyolojik yaklaşım açısından kuvvet, kas kasılması sırasında meydana gelen gerilimi ifade etmektedir. Kuvvet kavramı fizikte cisimlerin konumunu, hareketini ve şeklini değiştiren etki olarak tanımlanırken, biyomekanikte hareket ve dengeyi sağlayan etkiler olarak tanımlanmaktadır (8, 9). 2. Materyal Yöntem Derleme çalışmamızda; Google akademik veri tabanından 2014-2024 yılları arasında yapılan çalışmalar, el pençe kuvveti, bacak kuvveti testi, mekik, şınav, dikey sıçrama, durarak uzun atlama, sırt kuvveti, relatif kol kuvveti, relatif bacak kuvveti, takım sporları, bireysel sporlar, 898 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal spor, fizyolojik ve motorik özellikler anahtar kelimeleri ile ulaşılan ulusal çalışmalar incelenerek gerçekleştirilmiştir. 3. Bireysel ve Takım Sporlarında Kuvvet Ölçüm Yöntemleri Literatür incelendiğinde, el pençe kuvveti, dikey sıçrama, mekik, şınav, sırt kuvveti, bacak kuvveti, durarak uzun atlama, 1RM metodu, sırt kuvveti, relatif kuvvet gibi birçok testin sıklıkla kullanıldığı görülmektedir. 3.1. Kuvvet Ölçüm Yöntemlerinde Sık Kullanılan Yöntemler 3.1.1. El Pençe Kuvveti El kavrama kuvveti olarakta bilinen el pençe kuvveti hem ayakta hem de oturarak yapılabilen bir testtir. El dinomametresi kullanılarak yapılan bu ölçüm de dinamometre deneğin el ölçüsüne göre ayarlanır. Deneğin kolu düz ve omuzdan 10-15 derecelik bir açı yaparak yan tarafta öncelikle sağ elden maksimum pençe kuvveti ölçümü yapılır. Test, çalışma grubunda dönüşümlü olarak her iki el ile 4 tekrar yapılacak şekilde tekrarlanır. Her denemeden sonra ibre sıfırlanır. Deneme sonuçları kaydedilir ve en iyi dereceleri karşılaştırma yapmak için sonuçlar kısmına dahil edilir (10-26). 3.1.2. Dikey Sıçrama Testi Dikey sıçrama testleri kalça, diz ve kalça ekstansör kaslarının gücünü veya patlayıcı kuvvetini ölçmek için kullanılır. Seçilen düz bir duvar üzerinde santimetre cinsinden bir işaretleme yapılır. Ayaklar omuz genişliğinde açılır ve gövde işaretli duvara yan olacak şekilde durarak uzanabildikleri mesafe işaretlenir. Ardından deneğe aynı pozisyonda üç deneme hakkı verilerek bunların en iyisi değerlendirmeye alınır. Deneğin ayakta uzanabildiği mesafe ile zıplayıp dokunduğu mesafe arası metre cinsinden belirlenir (11-13, 15, 27-35). 3.1.3. Mekik Hareketi Testi (Curl Up) Karın kaslarının kuvvet gelişimini sağlamak için abdominal bölgede bulunan kasları çalıştıran en iyi egzersiz şekli mekik hareketidir. Bu hareket sırt üstü yatar pozisyonda gerçekleştirilir. Mindere uzanan sporcu ellerini arkada birleştirir ve dizleri bükülü ayağını yerden kaldırmadan egzersize başlar. Karın fleksiyonu yaparken dirsekleri dizlere kadar gelir ve tekrar sırt üstü uzanır. Egzersiz sırasında ayakların yerle temasının kesilmesi hata olarak değerlendirilir. Kontrol amaçlı egzersizin üç defa yapılmasına izin verilir. Sporcuların tükenme noktasına ulaşana kadar yapabildikleri mekik sayısı kaydedilir (11, 12, 14, 27, 36-41). 3.1.4. Şınav Testi Bu testin amacı sporcuların üst ekstremite kas grubunun dayanıklılığını belirlemektir. Düz bir yüzeye bir mat yerleştirilir. Eller omuz genişliğinde açık ve gergin olacak şekilde matın üzerine 899 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yüz üstü uzanılır. Dirsekler 90 derece açıda olacak şekilde vücut yere yaklaştırılır. Kollar gergin bir şekilde başlangıç pozisyonuna geri dönülür. Şınav hareketine dinlenmeden devam edilir ve 1 dk da kaç tekrar yapıldığı kaydedilir (11, 24, 27, 36, 41, 42). 3.1.5. Bacak Kuvveti Testi Bu testin amacı sporcularda elastik bacak kuvvetinin gelişimini takip etmektir. Bir çizgi üzerinde 2 koni ile 25 metrelik bir alan belirlenir. Sporcu başlama çizgisinin 10-15 m gerisinde başlar. Uyarı sesiyle birlikte sporcu koşmaya başlar, sporcu ilk koniden dominant bacağı üzerinde sıçrayarak başlar. İki koni arasındaki sıçramada geçen süre kaydedilir. Bu test daha sonra diğer bacak ile tekrar edilir. Sonuçlar önceki testlerin sonuçları ile karşılaştırılarak analiz edilir. Her iki test arasındaki uygun antrenman analizin iyileştiğini göstermesi beklenir (20, 21, 33, 43, 44).İzokinetik Kuvvet: İzokinetik kuvvetin belirlenmesinde, dinamometre, deneğin ayak uzunluğuna göre ayarlanır, ardından denekler dizleri bükülü, kolları gergin, sırtı düz ve gövdesi hafifçe öne eğik olarak ayaklarını dinamometre sehpasına yerleştirir ve elleriyle kavradıkları dinamometre çubuğunu bacaklarını kullanarak maksimum hızda dikey olarak yukarı çekerler. Denekler tarafından iki deneme sonucunda elde edilen en iyi sonuç en yüksek değer olarak kabul edilir (12, 14, 15, 17, 20, 21, 30, 31, 33, 40, 44-47). 3.1.6. Durarak Uzun Atlama Bu testin amacı, atletlerin elastik bacak kuvvetinin gelişimini göstermektedir. Herhangi bir ekipman gerektirmeyen basit ve zaman kazandıran bir uygulama olması nedeniyle birçok spor dalının antrenörleri tarafından yetenek seçimi ve potansiyel tahmini için rutin olarak kullanılmaktadır. Bu testte sporcu sporcu yere çizilen bir çizginin arkasında hazır pozisyonda durur. Bacaklarının omuz genişliğinde açık olması istenir. Kollarının yardımı ile sallanarak sıçramayı gerçekleştirir. Yere yapıştırılan metre ile sporcunun ilk düştüğü yer topuk kısmından ölçülmek şartıyla ölçüm alınır (29, 30, 35-39, 48). 3.2. Kuvvet Ölçüm Yöntemlerinde Az Kullanılan Yöntemler 3.2.1. 1RM (1 Maksimal Tekrar) Dinamik yöntemle kas gücünü ölçmek için 1-maksimum tekrar yöntemi kullanılır. Tek tekrarlı maksimum (1RM) testi, laboratuvar dışı durumlarda kas kuvvetinin değerlendirilmesinde altın standart olarak kabul edilir. Bu yöntem ağırlık kaldırma egzersiz sırasında, bir seferde kaldırılan maksimum ağırlık performansıdır. Herhangi bir kas grubunda (ön el fleksörü, ayak ekstansörleri ya da omuz gibi) deneğin maksimum kaldırma kapasitesine yakın, ancak altında olan uygun bir başlangıç ağırlığı seçilerek yapılır. İlk tekrar yapıldıktan sonra maksimum kaldırma kuvvetine erişene kadar ağırlık eklenir. Ağırlık artırılması genellikle 5.2 ve 1 kg’dır. 900 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 1 RM tekniği genellikle barbell ya da dambıl kullanılarak gerçekleştirilir (14, 15, 34, 40, 4951). 3.2.2. Sırt Kuvveti Sırt kuvveti bir sırt dinamometresi kullanılarak gerçekleştirilir. Sporcular dizleri gergin olacak şekilde ayaklarını dinamometre sehpasına yerleştirir. Kollar gergin, sırt düz ve gövde hafifçe öne eğikken, elleri ile kavradıkları dinamometre çubuğunu dikey olarak yukarı doğru maksimum ölçüde çekerler. Çekme işlemi üç kez tekrarlanır ve en iyi sonuç kaydedilir (15, 30, 44, 52). 3.2.3. Relatif Kuvvet "Relatif kuvvet" terimi, bir kişinin vücut ağırlığına göre kuvvetinin ölçüldüğü bir kavramı ifade eder. Bu terim, bir sporcu veya bireyin, vücut ağırlığına göre ne kadar kuvvetli olduğunu belirlemek için kullanılır. Örneğin, bir kişinin kendi vücut ağırlığını kaldırma yeteneği, relatif kuvvetinin bir ölçüsü olabilir. Bu, sporcunun veya bireyin vücut kütlesi göz önüne alındığında ne kadar güçlü olduğunu gösterir (22, 53). 3.3. Son Yıllarda Kullanılmaya Başlayan Yeni Yöntemler 3.3.1. Relatif Kol Kuvvetinin Belirlenmesi Kol (üst kol, alt kol ve el) ölçülür. Kol kütle hesaplama programında kol kütle toplamı hesaplanır. El pençe kuvveti ölçülür. El pençe kuvveti (kg) hesaplanan kolun toplam kütlesine (kg) bölünerek kolun relatif kuvveti tespit edilir (23). 3.3.2. Relatif Bacak Kuvvetinin Belirlenmesi Bacak hacim ve kütlesi uyluk, baldır ve ayaktan ölçümler alınarak yapılır. Uyluk hacim belirlemesinde inguinal nokta ile tibial nokta arası ölçülür. Deneğin baldır hacmi için, tibial nokta ile medial malleolus noktası arasındaki mesafe belirlenir. Bu mesafeler %10 aralıklarla belirlendikten sonra önce %10 aralıklarla alınan parçaların hacimleri daha sonra tüm parçaların hacimleri Frustum işaret modeli yöntemine göre mesura ile ölçülerek kaydedilir (54). 4. Sonuç Literatür incelendiğinde, el pençe kuvveti, dikey sıçrama, mekik, şınav, sırt kuvveti, bacak kuvveti, durarak uzun atlama, 1RM metodu, sırt kuvveti, relatif kuvvet gibi birçok testin sıklıkla kullanıldığı görülmektedir. Yapılan araştırmalar sonucunda literatüre yeni eklenen ölçüm yöntemleri olan relatif kol kuvveti ölçümü, relatif bacak kuvveti ölçümü gibi yöntemlerin son yıllarda kullanılmaya başlandığı görülmüştür. 901 VI.

Bu kapsamda son on yılda yapılmış ulusal ve uluslararası çalışmalar incelenmiştir. Araştırmamız derleme bir çalışma olup Google Akademik veri tabanında yayınlanmış tam metnine ulaşılabilen çalışmalar dahil edilmiştir. Maksimal oksijen tüketimi (MaxVO2), vücut ağırlığının kilogramı başına dakikada tükettiği maksimum oksijen miktarını ifade eder. Maksimum oksijen tüketimi kardiyorespiratuar gelişimin bir kriteri olan maksimal aerobik kapasitenin tayini için kullanılan en güvenilir testtir. Kişinin birim zamanda kullanabildiği oksijen miktarı ne kadar fazla ise kişinin aerobik kapasitesi de o oranda yüksek demektir. Aerobik güç dayanıklılık sporlarında performansa etkili en önemli faktördür. Maksimum oksijen tüketimi aerobik kapasitenin en iyi, kolay uygulanabilir ve güvenilir bir göstergesidir. Aerobik kapasite sadece antrenman için değil, toparlanmayı kolaylaştırmak ve hızlandırmak için de önem taşır. MaxVO2, hala kardiyovasküler direnç azalmasını ölçen en önemli test olarak kabul edilmektedir. MaxVO2, aerobik kapasite ölçümü için altın standart olarak kabul edilmektedir. Literatür incelendiğinde aerobik kapasitenin belirlenmesinde direkt ve indirekt olmak üzere birçok yöntem kullanılmaktadır. Aerobik kapasitenin direkt ölçülmesi oldukça güvenilir sonuçlar verir fakat pahalı, ulaşımı kolay olmayan ekipmanların kullanımı ve bu yöntemlerin tecrübeli kişilerce uygulanması gerektiğinden uygulanması sınırlı yöntemlerdir. Bu nedenle indirekt yöntemler olan; bisiklet testleri, koşu bandı testleri, basamak testleri ve saha testleri daha sık kullanılmaktadır. Bu indirekt yöntemler kendi içerisinde incelendiğinde ise Astrand Ryhming Bisiklet Testi, Bruce Protokolü, Balke Testi, Cooper Testi, 20m. Mekik Testi, Yo-Yo Testi gibi testlerin sık kullanıldığı göze çarpmaktadır. Ayrıca sporcuların aerobik kapasitelerinin belirlenmesinde saha testlerinin, bisiklet testleri, koşu bandı testleri ve basamak testlerine göre daha sık kullanıldığı tespit edilmiştir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal FREQUENTLY USED METHODS IN DETERMINING THE AEROBIC CAPACITIES OF ATHLETES Abstract The aim of this study was to examine the commonly used methods in determining the aerobic capacity of athletes. In this context, national and international studies conducted in the last decade were analyzed. Our research is a review study and the studies published in the Google Scholar database, the full text of which can be accessed, were included. Maximal oxygen consumption (MaxVO2) refers to the maximum amount of oxygen consumed per minute per kilogram of body weight. Maximal oxygen consumption is the most reliable test used to determine maximal aerobic capacity, a criterion of cardiorespiratory development. The more oxygen a person can use per unit time, the higher the aerobic capacity of the person. Aerobic power is the most important factor affecting performance in endurance sports. Maximum oxygen consumption is the best, easily applicable and reliable indicator of aerobic capacity. Aerobic capacity is important not only for training but also for facilitating and accelerating recovery. MaxVO2 is still recognized as the most important test to measure cardiovascular resistance reduction. MaxVO2 is considered the gold standard for measuring aerobic capacity. In the literature, many direct and indirect methods are used to determine aerobic capacity. Direct measurement of aerobic capacity gives very reliable results, but they are limited methods because they require the use of expensive, inaccessible equipment and these methods should be applied by experienced people. For this reason, indirect methods such as bicycle tests, treadmill tests, step tests and field tests are used more frequently. When these indirect methods are examined within themselves, Astrand Ryhming Bicycle Test, Bruce Protocol, Balke Test, Cooper Test, 20m. Shuttle Test, Yo-yo Test are used frequently. In addition, it was detected more frequently in the field than in field tests, bicycle tests, treadmill tests and step tests in determining the aerobic capacities of athletes.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Kuvvet, dayanıklılık, sürat, hareketlilik ve beceri gibi kavramlar insan yaşamını işlevsel hale getiren temel motorik özelliklerdir (1). Kişinin özellikle yoğun tempolu sportif faaliyetlere uzun süre karşı koyabilme yeteneği ve bu faaliyetlerde yorgunluğa karşı gösterdiği direnç dayanıklılık olarak adlandırılmaktadır (2). Dayanıklılığın en önemli fizyolojik ölçütü Maksimal Oksijen Tüketimi (MaxVO2) yani aerobik kapasitedir. Maksimal oksijen tüketimi (MaxVO2), vücut ağırlığının kilogramı başına dakikada tükettiği maksimum oksijen miktarını ifade eder. Maksimum oksijen tüketimi kardiyorespiratuar gelişimin bir kriteri olan maksimal aerobik kapasitenin tayini için kullanılan en güvenilir testtir. Kişinin birim zamanda kullanabildiği oksijen miktarı ne kadar fazla ise kişinin aerobik kapasitesi de o oranda yüksek demektir. Aerobik kapasite, dayanıklılık sporlarında bireyin performansına etki eden en önemli faktördür. Maksimum oksijen tüketimi aerobik kapasitenin en iyi, kolay uygulanabilir ve güvenilir bir göstergesidir. Aerobik kapasite sadece antrenman için değil aynı zamanda toparlanmayı kolaylaştırmak ve hızlandırmak için de önem taşır. MaxVO2, hala kardiyovasküler direnç azalmasını ölçen en önemli test olarak kabul edilmektedir. MaxVO2, aerobik kapasite ölçümü için altın standart olarak kabul edilmektedir (44). Aerobik kapasite, egzersiz test protokolüne bağlı kalarak gerçekleştirilen birtakım egzersizler ile kişinin oksijen tüketiminin en yüksek değeri olarak tanımlanabilmektedir. Bu egzersiz testleri kademeli bir şekilde artırılarak uygulanmaktadır. Egzersiz testleri sırasında yapılan kademeli yükleme, kişi adına maksimum noktaya ulaştığında kişinin aerobik kapasitesi (MaxVO2) değeri elde edilmektedir (4). MaxVO2 değerinin yüksek olması kişinin iş yapabilme kapasitesinin daha fazla olması ya da yapılan egzersizin uzun soluklu ve yorgunluk hissiyatına daha geç ulaşması anlamına gelir (3). Aerobik kapasitenin belirlenmesinde direkt ve indirekt olmak üzere maksimal veya submaksimal yöntemler kullanılarak tespit edilebilir. Aerobik kapasitenin direkt ölçülmesi oldukça güvenilir sonuçlar verir fakat pahalı, ulaşımı kolay olmayan ekipmanların kullanımı ve bu yöntemlerin tecrübeli kişilerce uygulanması gerektiğinden kesin sonuçlar vermese de indirekt yöntemlerin kullanıldığını daha sık görürüz (8). Aerobik kapasitenin belirlenmesinde kullanılan egzersiz şiddeti kademeli olarak artarken ortaya çıkan sonuçlara göre kişinin oksijen kullanım eğilimi lineer bir grafik çizmektedir. Oksijen kullanımındaki bu lineer artış belirli bir noktadan sonra stady state olarak adlandırılan ve oksijen seviyesinin sabit noktada devam ettiği bölgeye ulaşmaktadır. Bu nokta maksimum oksijen tüketiminin gerçekleştiği değerdir ve iş yükü artmaya devam ederken oksijen kullanımı sabit bir şekilde devam etmektedir (7). Elit sporcularda MaxVO2 değerinin, 70-85 ml/kg/dk olduğu ifade edilmektedir. Bu MaxVO2 909 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal değerinin kadın sporcularda yaklaşık %10 daha az olduğu belirtilmektedir. Bunun nedeni ise kadınların vücut yağ yüzdelerinin erkeklere göre daha yüksek olması ve kadınların hemoglobin yoğunluklarının yine erkeklere göre daha düşük düzeylerde olmasından kaynaklandığı ifade edilmektedir (5). Genellikle yüksek düzeydeki MaxVO2 değeri yaş, maksimum kalp hacmi, solunum sisteminin katkısı, oksijeni taşıma kapasitesi ve iskelet kası ile ilişkilidir (6). 2. Materyal ve Yöntem Çalışmamız derleme bir çalışmadır. Bu çalışma; Google akademik veri tabanından (dayanıklılık, aerobik, aerobik kapasite, VO2max, Aerobik kapasite ölçüm testleri) anahtar kelimeler kullanılarak son on yıl içerisinde yayınlanmış ulusal ve uluslararası çalışmalar incelenerek yapılmıştır. 3. Aerobik Kapasitenin Belirlenme Yöntemleri MaxVO2, Egzersiz Test Protokolleri kapsamında kademeleri yoğunluk artışları ile gerçekleştirilen direkt ve indirekt yöntemlerle ölçülmektedir. (4). 3.1. Direkt Yöntem Laboratuvar şartlarında maksimal yüklenme sırasında ekspirasyondaki O 2 ve CO2 miktarının gaz analizörleriyle tespit edildiği yöntemdir. Douglas torbaları ve Breath by Breath yöntemleri direkt yöntemlere örnek olarak gösterilebilmektedir (9). MaxVO2’nin direkt ölçüm yöntemi son derece geçerli ve güvenilir bir yöntemdir fakat pahalı, ulaşımı kolay olmayan ekipmanların kullanımı ve bu yöntemlerin tecrübeli kişilerce uygulanması gerektiğinden kullanımı sınırlıdır (8). 3.1.1.Breath by Breath Her nefes alışverişteki gaz miktarının ölçümüdür. Ölçümlerde tüm gazların yoğunluğunu belirlemek amacıyla kullanılan kütle spektrometreler ve gazların ayrı ayrı belirlenmesini sağlayan analizörlerin bulunduğu sistemler olarak iki farklı sistem kullanılmaktadır. Maksimum egzersiz testi esnasında açık devre spirometri kullanımı, anaerobik eşiğin belirlenmesinde daha doğru sonuçlar elde edilmesini sağlamaktadır MaxVO2 ve VO2 zirve değerinin direkt ölçümünü sağlar. 3.1.2.Douglas Torbaları Ekspirasyondaki solunum gazlarının belirli süre torbada toplanmasıyla ölçüm yapılır. Ölçümdeki hata payının yüksek olması nedeniyle günümüzde pek kullanılmamaktadır (19). 3.2. İndirekt Yöntem İndirekt yöntemlerde ekspirasyondaki O2 ve CO2 miktarının gaz analizörleriyle belirlenmesi yerine kalp atım hızı kullanılmaktadır. Kalp atım hızı ile oksijen tüketimi arasında doğrusal bir 910 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ilişki vardır ilkesinden yola çıkılarak maksimal veya submaksimal egzersiz protokolleriyle aerobik kapasite tahmin edilebilir (42). Aerobik Kapasite Ölçüm Testleri incelendiğinde bisiklet ergometresi testleri, koşu bandı testleri, saha ve basamak testleri olarak gruplandırıldığını görmekteyiz (Tablo 1) (43,11). Bu testlerin içinden de en sık kullanılan testler aşağıda açıklanmıştır. Tablo 3. Aerobik Kapasite Ölçüm Testleri Bisiklet Ergometresi Koşu Bandı Testleri Saha Testleri Basamak Testleri Bruce Yöntemi 20m Mekik Testi Hardvard Basamak Testi Balke Protokolü Yo-Yo Test Queens Kolej Basamak Testleri Astrand Rhyming Bisiklet Testi Ex-10 Test Testi Fox Denklemi Bonen Koşu Bandı Testi Cooper Test Astrand Basamak Testi 3 Basamak Test Submaksimal Balke Testi McArdle Basamak Testi Koşu Bandı Testi PWC170 Test 1 mil Koş/Yürü Test Giessen Test Rockport Yürüyüş Testi YMCA 3.2.1. Bisiklet Metotları Bisiklet testleri, genellikle tanı testi olarak kullanılan, özellikle Avrupa’da kullanılan bir test yöntemidir. Submaksimal veya maksimal testler şeklinde uygulanması mümkündür (31). 3.2.1.1. Astrand Rhyming Bisiklet Testi Astrand Test uygun klinik ortamlarda en yaygın olarak kullanılan submaksimal bisiklet ergometri testlerinden biridir (22, 24). Yaygın olarak kullanılan tek etaplı bu test Astrand ve Rhyming tarafından geliştirilmiştir. Astrand-Rhyming test sporcuların submaksimal performansıyla MaxVO2 değerlerinin tahmin edilmesi için geliştirilmiştir. Bu testin uygulanışında öncelikle oturma yüksekliği her bir sporcu için ayarlanır. Sporcuların ısınması için iş yükü olmaksızın pedalı 50rpm hızla çevirmesi istenir. Testin başlangıcında aktif bireyler için iş yükü 100-150 watt sedanterler için ise iş yükü 75 watt olarak belirlenmiştir. İş yükü 6 dakika boyunca devam ettirilir. Testin 5. ve 6. dakikalarının sonunda sporcuların kalp atım sayıları not edilir. Eğer 5. Ve 6. Dakikanın sonunda oluşan kalp atım sayısı farkı 5 veya daha fazla değilse ve ortalama 130-170 KAS arasında ise test sonlandırılır. Eğer kalp atım sayısı 911 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 130’un altındaysa iş yükü 50-100watt artırılarak devam edilir. Eğer 5.ve 6. Dakikalar arasındaki kalp atım sayısı farkı 5 ten fazla ise test birbirini izleyen iki dakika arasında kalp atım sayısı 5 ten az oluncaya kadar devam ettirilir. Test sonlandığında ise direnç azaltılarak venöz birikimi önlemek amacıyla pedalın 3-5 dakika çevirilmesi istenir (10). Astrand-Ryhming Test (26): VO2max = (0.00212 × W + 0.299) / (0.769 × HRmax - 48.5) × 100 Bisiklet ergometresi testleri incelendiğinde Astrand Rhyming Bisiklet Testi’nin diğerlerine göre daha sık kullanıldığı görülmektedir (45-57,33,34) 3.2.2. Koşu Bandı Metotları 3.2.2.1. Bruce Yöntemi Koroner kalp rahatsızlığının tanısında sık kullanılan bir yöntemdir. Aynı zamanda maksimal performanstan MaxVO2’nin belirlenmesinde, diğer yöntemlerle karşılaştırıldığında geçerliliği en yüksek yöntem olarak kabul edilmektedir (58-70, 21, 33, 36). Bruce yöntemi başlangıçta düşük seviyelerde ve kişinin ısınması için zaman tanınarak uygulanmaktadır. Bu yöntemde iş yükü artışı diğer yöntemlere göre fazladır bu yüzden test çabucak tamamlanır (10). Test, 2.7 km/s hızla ve %10 eğim ile başlamaktadır. Koşu bandı hızı ve eğimi her üç dakikada bir arttırılır. Kişi tükenene kadar teste devam eder (11). Aktif ve sedanter erkeklerde hesaplama; (13) MaxVO2 = 14,8- (1,379 x T) + (0,451 x T2) – (0,012 x T3) Aktif ve sedanter kadınlarda hesaplama; (12) MaxVO2 = 4,38 x T – 3,9 “T”: Testin toplam zamanıdır (11). 3.2.2.2.Balke Protokolü Bu test tıp ve fizyoloji laboratuvarında yapılan işin kapasitesini belirlemede veya maksimum oksijen tüketiminin belirlenmesinde yaygın bir şekilde kullanılmaktadır ve geçerliliği kabul görmektedir (71-76, 33,). Koşu bandında eğim %0, hız ise erkeklerde 5,5km hızda kadınlarda ise 4,8km hızda yürümeye başlarlar. Test boyunca hız sabit kalır. Koşu bandı ilk dakikadan sonra %2 seviyesine getirilir ve ondan sonra geçen her bir dakikada %1 artırılır. Her dakikanın son 15 saniyesinde kalp atım sayısı kontrol edilir kalp dakikada 180 atıma ulaşıncaya kadar test devam ettirilir (11). Aktif ve sedanter erkeklerde hesaplama; (14) MaxVO2 = 1,444 x T+14,99 R= 0,92, SEE=2,50ml/kg/dk Aktif ve sedanter kadınlarda hesaplama; (12) 912 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal MaxVO2 = 1,38xT+5,22 R=0,94, SEE=2,20 ml/kg/dk 3.2.3. Basamak Testleri Basamak testleri zamanın kısıtlı olduğu, laboratuvar ekipmanı olmadığı veya yoğunluğu yüksek olan egzersizlerin güvenliği olmadığı durumlarda uygulanan submaksimal testlerdir. MaxVO2’nin tahmin edilmesinde kullanılan bu testlerin uygulanması kolay, ucuz, taşınabilirdir. Aynı zamanda yaygın olarak da kullanılır (77-88, 27). 3.2.3.1.Queens College Steps Test McArddle ve arkadaşları aerobik kapasiteyi belirlemek için 3 dakikalık adım testini geliştirdiler. Deneğe platforma nasıl inip çıkacağı gösterilir. Daha sonra denek eğer kadınsa platforma dakikada 22, eğer denek erkekse platforma 24 inme ve çıkma yapacak şekilde testi 3 dakika boyunca sürdürür. Test sonlandığında denek ayaktayken 5. ve 20. saniyeler arasında 15 saniye boyunca sayılan kalp atım sayısı ölçülüp not edilir. Not edilen değer dakika değerine çevrilir (4xKAS) (10). Kadınlarda; MaxVO2 = 65,81- (0,1847 x KAS) Erkeklerde; MaxVO2 = 111,3- (0,42 x KAS) (10). 3.2.3.2.Harvard Basamak Testi Bu teste deneklerin maksimal performansını tahmin edebilmek için egzersizden sonraki toparlanma kalp atım sayısı kullanılmaktadır (28). Denekler belirli yükseklikteki platforma iniş ve çıkış yaparlar. Bu platformun yüksekliği erkek denekler için 50 cm kadın denekler için 40 cmdir. Denekler dakikada 30 iniş çıkış yaparlar (29). Bu iniş çıkışlar 5 dakika süreyle veya tükeninceye kadar devam eder. İniş çıkışların düzenli yapılması için metronom kullanılabilir ve 120 vuruşa ayarlanabilir. Test sırasında düzenli inip çıkmanın yapılabilmesi için dakikada 120 vuruşa ayarlanmış bir metronom kullanılabilir. Deneğin dinlenme sırasındaki kalp atım sayısı 1-1.5, 2-2.5 ve 3-3.5 dakikalar arası baz alınarak sayılır. Baz alınan süreler 30 saniyedir ve bu süreler içerisinde nabız değerleri not edilir (30). MaxVO2 = (100 x test süresi (sn)) / 2 x (toparlanmadaki sayılan toplam kalp atımların toplamı) (11). 913 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 3.2.4. Saha Testleri 3.2.4.1. 20 metre mekik testi (Shuttle Run) Leger ve Lambert tarafından (1982) geliştirilen bu test ortaya çıkmasından bu yana yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Shuttle Run testi 20 metre uzunluğunda bir parkur içerisinde gerçekleştirilir. Kişi hızını her dakika 0,5 km/saat olacak şekilde düzenli olarak artırır. 23 bölümden oluşan bu testin uygulamasında dinlenme zamanı bulunmamaktadır. Testin uygulamasında sporcular 20 metre uzunluğundaki parkuru uçtan uca gidip gelmektedirler. Hız kontrolü ortama verilen sinyal sesi ile kontrol edilmektedir. Bu sinyal sesi 20 metrelik parkurun başında ve sonunda bulunmayı hedefler. Sporcular sinyal sesi her çalındığında 20 metrelik mesafeyi tamamlamalıdır. Eğer sporcu sinyal sesinden önce 20 metrelik koşusunu tamamlamışsa bir sonraki sinyal sesini beklemeli ve sinyalden sonra koşuya devam etmelidir. Sporcu, çalınan sinyal sesi ile 20m mesafeyi üst üste üç sefer tamamlayamazsa sporcunun testi sonlandırılır ve sporcu diskalifiye edilir. Testin sonucu, sporcunun geldiği seviye kullanılarak aşağıdaki bağıntılar yardımıyla hesaplanmaktadır. (16).MaxVo2(ml.kg-1.dk-1) = 31.025+3.238X-3.248A+0.1536AX X= koşu hızı (km.sa-1), A= yaş (yıl) (15).Saha testi olan 20 metre mekik testi “Shuttle Run” aerobik kapasitenin belirlenmesinde sıkça kullanıldığı görülmektedir (89-108). 3.2.4.2. Yo-Yo Aralıklı Toparlanma Testi IRT1 MaxVO2’nin belirlenmesinde Bangsbo tarafından geliştirilmiş en sık kullanılan saha testidir (9). Bu testin iki farklı biçimi vardır ve her ikisinin uygulanışı da shuttle run testine benzemektedir. Yoyo testi 20 metrelik (20m x 2) başlama, dönüş ve bitirme çizgilerinin bulunduğu toplamda 40 metrelik bir alanda uygulanmaktadır. Test sinyal sesiyle ve belirtilen çizgiler arasında sporcuların 10 km/s hızda koşmasıyla başlar. Koşu hızının aşamalı olarak artırıldığı bu test birbirini takip eden tekrarlı testlerden oluşur. Bu testte her bir tur yani 40 metrelik koşu tamamlandığında sporcular 2x5 metreden oluşan 10 saniyelik aktif toparlanma yaparlar. Test 10-13km/s’de 4 koşu, 13,5-14 km/s’de 7 koşu ve sonrasında her 8 turdan sonra hız 0,5 km/s artırılarak devam eder. 12 ve13 km/s’ hızla birer tur, 13.5 km/s hızla 3 tur, 14 km/s hızla 4 tur, 14.5 km/s hızla 8 tur ve ardından 0.5 km/s hız artışları ile 19.5 km/s hıza kadar sekizer tur şeklinde uygulanmaktadır. Sporcu bitkin düştüğünde veya art arda üç sinyal sesini kaçırdığında Yo-Yo testi sonlandırılır (18).Yo-Yo Aralıklı Toparlanma Testi Seviye 1: MaxVO2 (ml/kg/dk) = IR1 mesafe (m) × 0,0084 + 36,4 şeklinde formüle edilmiştir. (18). Saha testlerinden Yo-YoIR1 testi aerobik kapasitenin belirlenmesinde sıkça kullanıldığı görülmektedir (109-124). 914 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 3.2.4.3. Cooper Test Cooper testi, Kenneth Cooper tarafından geliştirilen ve aerobik kapasitenin belirlenmesinde kullanılan testler arasında en yaygın kullanılan testlerden biridir. Cooper testi Amerika Birleşik Devletleri’ne bağlı askeri faaliyetlerinde, askerlerin aerobik kapasitesinin belirlemek amacıyla düzenli olarak uygulanmaktadır. Cooper testi iki farklı versiyon olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Bunlardan biri 1.5 mil mesafe baz alınarak gerçekleştirilen ölçümdür. Bir diğer versiyonu ise 12 dakikalık koşudan oluşmaktadır. Testin popülaritesi ölçümün pratik ve maliyetinin düşük olmasına dayanmaktadır. Cooper’ın koşu testi 12 dakika sürmektedir. Kat edilen mesafenin belirlenmesi için bir belirlenirken;VO2maks: ölçüm bandı (Katedilen gerekmektedir. mesafe (m) Cooper -504,9) testi / ile VO2max 44,73 bağıntısı kullanılmaktadır.Aerobik kapasitenin Cooper’ın koşu testi ile arasındaki korelasyon ilişkisi r=0,9 olarak belirtilmiştir (20, 21).Saha testlerinden Cooper testinin aerobik kapasiteyi belirlemede sıkça kullanıldığı görülmektedir (125-133, 23,47). 3.2.4.4. Bir Mil Koşma/Yürüme Testi Bir mil koşma/yürüme testi uygulanabilirliği kolay, araç, gereci ucuz ve çok sayıda çocuğun aynı anda ölçülmesine olanak sağlayan bir yöntemdir. Bu nedenle bu test birçok okulun bataryasında yer almaktadır (10).Bir mil koşma/yürüme testi çocuğa uygulanırken ilk olarak gerekli açıklamalar yapılır. Çocuktan tüm mesafe yani 1mil (1,609 km) koşması istenir. Eğer çocuk bu mesafeyi koşarak tamamlayamıyorsa yürümesi istenir. Testin sonunda koşulan süre kayıt altına alınır. Test bitirildiğinde çocukların soğuması için 3-5 dakika yavaş tempoda yürümesi unutulmamalıdır. Bu test için literatürde yer alan fitnesgram ve AAHPERD (American Alliance For Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance) standartları tavsiye edilmektedir (10). 3.2.5. Maksimal Kol Ergometresi Hareket etme yeteneği olmayan ve bacaklarını egzersizde kullanamayan kişilerin MaxVO2 lerinin belirlenmesi için çok uygun bir yöntemdir. Bu ergometrede denek bacaklarını uzatarak oturtulmalı ve krankın orta noktası omuz genişliğine göre ayarlanmalıdır. Denek kollarını bu ergometrede maksimal şekilde germelidir. Başlangıç yükü 75-150 kgm ve artışta 75-150 kgm olacak şekilde bacak ergometresindeki yöntem devam ettirilir. Denek bu artışlara yetişemediğinde test sonlandırılır (10, 41).MaxVO2 = kgm/dk x 3ml/kgm + (3,5ml/kg.dk x ağırlık) 915 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 4.Sonuç Sonuç olarak literatür incelendiğinde aerobik kapasitenin belirlenmesinde direkt ve indirekt olmak üzere birçok yöntem kullanılmaktadır. Aerobik kapasitenin direkt ölçülmesi oldukça güvenilir sonuçlar verir fakat pahalı, ulaşımı kolay olmayan ekipmanların kullanımı ve bu yöntemlerin tecrübeli kişilerce uygulanması gerektiğinden uygulanması sınırlı yöntemlerdir. Bu nedenle indirekt yöntemler olan; bisiklet testleri, koşu bandı testleri, basamak testleri ve saha testleri daha sık kullanılmaktadır. Bu indirekt yöntemler kendi içerisinde incelendiğinde ise Astrand Ryhming Bisiklet Testi, Bruce Protokolü, Balke Testi, Cooper Testi, 20 metre Mekik Testi, Yo-Yo Testi gibi testlerin sık kullanıldığı göze çarpmaktadır. Ayrıca sporcuların aerobik kapasitelerinin belirlenmesinde saha testlerinin, bisiklet testleri, koşu bandı testleri ve basamak testlerine göre daha sık kullanıldığı tespit edilmiştir. 916 VI.

Bu görsel kimlik sistemi, markanın birliğini ve zamansal süreçteki profesyonel olarak ilerlemesini sağlar. Tüketici ve rakip markalar arasında marka algısının yapılandırılmasına katkıda bulunur. Kurumun benliğini, vizyon ve misyonunu, hedeflerini, özgün kişiliğini yansıtan bir marka kimliği ve görsel çözümlemesini oluşturmak için tasarlanır. Tıpkı her bireyin farklı benliğinin olması gibi, her markanın da kurumsal kimlik tasarımının görsel betimlemesi karakteristik olarak marka hakkında bilgi verir.Kurumsal kimlik tasarımı; logo tasarımı, ambalaj tasarımı, web sitesi tasarımı, tipografi, görsel iletişim, kurumsal dokümanlar, renk paleti unsurlarını içerebilir. Kurumsal kimliğin ana üretim kanallarının dışında birçok tanıtıcı malzemeler vardır ve bu kanallardan biri de promosyon ürünleridir. Promosyon ürünleri, markanın kurumsal kimliğinin bir taşıyıcısı olarak; markanın bilinirliğini artırma, itibar ve güven inşası, pazarlama ve tanıtım, rekabet üstünlüğünü sağlama açısından büyük bir öneme sahiptir. Promosyon ürünü olarak tasarlanan, tarihsel süreçte geçmişten günümüze kadar uygulama alanlarından biri de kibrit kutusu tasarımlarıdır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal MATCH BOX PACKAGING DESIGNS PRODUCED AS CORPORATE IDENTITY CARRIER REFLECTIONS OF 20TH CENTURY ART MOVEMENTS Abstract Corporate identity design is a graphic and visual identity system created to determine how a brand wants to exist in the market, how it wants to be perceived and what features and values it wants to promote. This visual identity system ensures the unity of the brand and its professional progress in the temporal process. It contributes to the structuring of brand perception among consumers and competing brands. It is designed to create a brand identity and visual analysis that reflects the organization's identity, vision and mission, goals and unique personality. Just as each individual has a different self, the visual description of the corporate identity design of each brand characteristically provides information about the brand. Corporate identity design can include logo design, packaging design, website design, typography, visual communication, corporate documents, color palette. There are many promotional materials outside the main production channels of corporate identity and one of these channels is promotional products. Promotional products, as a carrier of the brand's corporate identity, have a great importance in terms of increasing brand awareness, building reputation and trust, marketing and promotion, and ensuring competitive advantage. Matchbox designs are one of the application areas that have been designed as promotional products from the past to the present. The aim of this research is to reveal the reflections of 20th century art movements in matchbox designs that exist as a carrier of corporate identity designs. In the research, it will be examined how matchboxes carry reflections from the imaginary trace of the popular culture of the period in which they are located. In this study, in which the descriptive survey model, one of the qualitative research methods, is used; the formal and design development and change of matchbox packaging designs over time will be examined.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Benlik kavramı, var olmanın başlıca konularından biridir. Bu kavram ile birlikte, insanların yaşam biçimlerinin şekillenmesi gibi kurumların da görsel kimliği şekillenmektedir. Bu nitelikle insanlar benliklerini kimlik algısıyla tarif edebilirler. “Değerlerin oluşumunun kaynağı nedir?”, “Temsil edilen ve yansıtılan özellikler nelerdir?” gibi sorular kimlik algısının oluşumuna katkı sağlar. Kimlik algısı, kurumlarda vizyon-misyonu, değer, anlam ve hedeflerini yansıtmaktadır. Kimlik kavramı kendi içinde bireysel, kolektif ve kurumsal kimlik olmak üzere üç şekilde oluşabilir.Literatürde gelmiş geçmiş ilk ve en büyük endüstriyel tasarımcı ve kurumsal kimlik olgusunun duayeni sayılan Peter Behrens, “Tasarım, işlevsel formları dekore etmek değildir; nesnenin karakterine uygun ve yeni teknolojileri avantajlı gösteren formlar yaratmaktır” diyerek kimlik kavramının, kurumsal kimlik çerçevesinde markalar için tasarlanırken, tıpkı bireylerde gelişen benlik kavramında olduğu gibi, spesifik olarak tasarlanması gerektiğine atıfta bulunmuştur (Georgia Cheirchanteri, 2016). Behrens’in, endüstri alanında bütünleştirici düzeyde yaptığı; markanın algı standartlarını yükseltmenin ancak tasarımla sağlanabileceğine dair olan çalışmaları geçmişten günümüze, kimlik kavramının gelişmesine ve ilerlemesine ışık tutmuştur.Her marka, kendi benliğini ifade etmek ve rekabet avantajı elde etmek için özel bir kurumsal kimlik tasarımına ihtiyaç duyar. Kurumsal kimlik tasarımı, genellikle logo tasarımı, ambalaj tasarımı, web sitesi tasarımı, tipografi, renk paleti, görsel iletişim ve kurumsal dokümanlar gibi farklı öğeleri içerir. Bunlar, markanın tutarlı bir şekilde tanıtılmasını ve tüketiciye güçlü bir marka izlenimi sunmasını sağlar. Ayrıca, promosyon ürünleri gibi farklı kanallarda da markanın kimliğini taşır. Promosyon ürünleri, markanın bilinirliğini artırma, itibar oluşturma, pazarlama ve rekabet üstünlüğü sağlama amacıyla kullanılır. Kibrit kutusu tasarımları da bu promosyon ürünlerinin örneklerindendir. Bu araştırmanın amacı, 20. yüzyıl sanat akımlarının kibrit kutusu tasarımlarına nasıl yansıdığını incelemektir. Promosyon ürünlerinden biri olan kibrit kutusu tasarımlarının; süslemeden oldukça uzakta, yalın bir görsel üslupta illüstre edilerek tasarlanmasının nedeni; işlevin güzellik kavramı ile kolektif çalışmasıdır. Kibrit kutuları, içerdikleri dönemin popüler kültürünü ve görsel unsurlarını yansıtarak tarihsel bir iz bırakır. Bu çalışma, kibrit kutusu ambalajlarının biçimsel ve tasarımsal evrimini ve dönemsel değişimlerini detaylı bir şekilde ele alarak bu yansımaları analiz edecektir. 931 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 1. KURUMSAL KİMLİK TASARIMI “Kimlik” kelimesi, “bir ‘kişi’ ya da ‘şey’i tanıtan tekil karakteristikler” şeklinde bütünsel olarak tanımlanmıştır. Bu çerçeveden bakılınca kimlik olgusu, diğerinden farklılaştıran özellikler ile bireyselliğe atıfta bulunur. Kurumsal kimlik için tanımlanmış evrensel bir tanım bulunmamakla birlikte literatürde kurumsal kimlik kavramının geniş ve dar yelpazede tanımları vardır. Kurumsal kimliğin temasta bulunduğu multidisipliner yapı sebebiyle tanımı ile ilgili tarihsel süreçte değişkenlik göstermiştir (Collins English Dictionary, 2002, s.482). Tüm bu süreçteki en nihai bulgu; bir markanın tanımında ifade biçimi olarak tercih edilen üslup, iletişim yöntemi olarak kurgulanan ifade öbekleridir. Kimlik olgusu, genel olarak bir bireyin benzersiz özelliklerini, karakterini ve tanımlayıcı unsurlarını ifade eder (Erikson, 1959, s.18-26). Bu kavram, bir kişinin kendini tanımlama, aidiyet duygusu, kim olduğunu anlama ve diğer insanlarla ilişkiler kurma sürecini içerir. Kimlik, sosyal, kültürel, cinsel, etnik, dini ve kişisel faktörlerin bir kombinasyonu olarak ortaya çıkabilir (Keyman, 2007, s.217-230). “Guichaoua’ya göre (1998); “Bütün diğer toplumsal olgular gibi etnik, dini, kültürel vd. kimlikler de mevcut ve kabul gören değil, kurulan, inşa edilen olgulardır.”” (Günay, 2010, s.144) Kimlik, bireyin sahip olduğu özelliklerle şekillenir ve genellikle şu unsurları içerir: kişisel kimlik, sosyal kimlik, kültürel kimlik, cinsel kimlik ve etik kimlik. Aynı zamanda kimlik olgusunda, bireyin içsel algısıyla dış dünyadaki algılar arasında farklılıklar olabilir. Bu açıdan bakılınca kimlik, kişinin kendisini ve başkalarını anlaması, kabul etmesi ve iletişimde denge yaratması açısından önemlidir. Markanın görsel kimliğinde öncelikle kimlik olgusunun inşası kurulur; hangi duyguyu vereceği ve eylem ayağının nasıl ön planda oluşacağı gibi sorular çerçevesinde şekillenir. 19. Yüzyılın başlarında sadece logo tasarımı ile kurulmaya başlanan kimlik inşası, 1970’lerden itibaren kimlik üzerine markayı kurgulamak daha bilinçli bir şekilde ele alınmıştır (Karsak, 2008).Kurumsal kimlik, iletişim kanalında markanın benzersiz ve tanınabilir bir karaktere sahip olmasını sağlayan görsel ve sözlü unsurların bütünüdür. Bu unsurlar arasında logo, renk paleti, tipografi, dil ve iletişim tarzı, kurumsal misyon ve vizyon gibi öğeler bulunur. Kurumsal kimlik, bir şirketin hedef kitlesi ile iletişim kurmasını, güvenilir bir imaj oluşturmasını ve marka değerini artırmasını amaçlar. Bu durumda kurumsal iletişim, kurumsal dil, mesajlar, ton ve tarz gibi unsurların bir bütünüdür ve böylece kurumun hedef kitlesiyle nasıl iletişim kuracağını belirler. Alman sanatçı, mimar ve endüstriyel tasarımcı Peter Behrens; endüstri alanında, Alman Jugendstil ve Alman Ekspresyonist akımlarında önemli ve öncü bir figürdür. Behrens; 19. Yüzyılın başında, Alman sanayi devi olarak görülen AEG (Allgemeine Elektricitäts-Gesellschaft) isimli firmada genel sanat yönetmeni olarak aktif rol 932 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal aldığı periyotta, mimarlık ve tasarım dünyasında büyük izler bırakmıştır. Behrens, kurumsal kimlik tasarımı sürecinde; toplum ve sanatın birleşimi, kurumsal kimliğin bütünselliği, özgün ve tanınabilir tasarımlar gibi özellikleri prensip olarak ele almıştır. Bu sebeple, AEG markası için tasarlamak için giriştiği logo ve ürün tasarımları, markanın güçlü bir kimlik oluşturmasını sağlamıştır. (Anderson, 2002). Peter Behrens'in tasarımları ve kurumsal kimlik anlayışı, modern endüstriyel tasarım ve kurumsal kimlik oluşturma süreçlerine önemli adımlar olmuştur. Bu dönemde; Walter Gropius gibi, Behrens ile birlikte çalışan bazı genç yetenekler, Bauhaus’un öğrenci ve öğretmenleri olacak isimlerdir. En nihai sonuç olarak; Gropius’un disiplininde Behrens’in etkisi olarak, sanat ve endüstriyi birleştirme vizyonu görülmektedir. Bauhaus'un en baş prensiplerinden biri, sanatı ve zanaatı bir bütün olarak ele alıp, endüstriyel tasarımı öne çıkarmaktır (Droste,1994, s.22-34). Bu prensipler, Behrens'in öncüsü olduğu endüstriyel tasarım ekolünün etkisi altında kalmış olabilir. Bu açıdan bakılınca, Behrens ile Bauhaus disiplini arasındaki köklü bağ, tasarım tarihindeki önemli bir geçiş dönemine ve modern tasarımın evrimine ışık tutan bir etkileşim örneği olarak görülebilir.19. Yüzyılın birinci yarısının erken döneminde, kurumsal kimliği tasarlanmak üzere profesyonel süreçten geçen ilk marka, Bass Ale olmuştur. 1876'da İngiltere merkezli bir bira üreticisi olan Bass & Company, firmanın birası olan Bass Ale için dünyada tanınan bir marka oluşturma amacıyla, kırmızı üçgen şeklindeki logo ve diğer marka öğelerini kullanmaya başlamıştır (Bass&Company, 2001). Bu, marka ve ürün arasında bir bağlantı yaratmak ve tüketicilerin zihinlerinde markanın kalıcı bir imajını oluşturmak amacıyla yapılan erken bir girişimdir. Ancak, kurumsal kimliğin tam anlamıyla tasarlanması ve yönetilmesi konsepti daha sonraki yıllarda gelişmiştir. Modern anlamda kurumsal kimlik tasarımı, markanın görsel öğeleri, mesajları ve diğer unsurlarıyla bütünlüğünü sürdürme çabalarından gelmektedir. 19.Yüzyıl sonlarında, birinci sanayi devrimi ile birlikte; tüketim toplumu oluşmuş, seri üretim ve markalaşmada rekabetin artması nedeniyle kurumsal kimlik yapılaşmaya başlamıştır. Bu çağda endüstrileşme ve ticaretin artmasıyla birlikte şirketlerin rekabeti artmış, bu da kurumsal kimliğin önemini ortaya çıkarmıştır. İlk başlarda, kurumsal kimlik unsurları sadece logoları içermiş, ancak zamanla bu unsurlar da gelişmiştir. 1920’ler ve 1930’lar, marka kimliği ve tasarım alanında önemli gelişmelerin yaşandığı dönemlerdir. Bu aralıkta, şirketler alıcı ile bağ kurmak ve ürünlerini diğerlerinden ayırmak için markalaşma ve kurumsal kimlik unsurlarını kullanma eğilimine girmiştir. 1950'ler ve 1960'lar, kurumsal kimlik alanında daha fazla standardizasyon ve bilinçli strateji dönemleridir. Öyle ki bu dönemde, renk seçimi, tipografi ve logoların kullanımı daha bilinçli bir şekilde ele alınmıştır. 1970'lerde kurumsal kimlik alanında; tasarım ve tasarlamak bilincinin 933 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal gelişmesiyle birlikte, kurumsal düzeydeki bir tasarım sorunu olarak yoğunlaşmıştır (Meral, 2011). Bu var olma durumu, kurumsal kimliğin sistematik düzende stratejik bir kazanım ve rakip markalar arasında avantaj niteliğinde bir adım olarak görülmesidir. Kurumsal kimlik tasarımı markaların, itibarının artırması ile birlikte kurumsal paydaşlarının yatırım planlarını ve marka ürünlerinin tercih edilmesini önemli ölçüde etkilediği izlenilmektedir. Bununla birlikte, çalışanların kurumsal aidiyetinde kimlik olgusunun gelişmesi, vizyon ve misyonunu benimsemesi; yaratılan kimlik olgusuna daha duyarlı olmalarını sağlamış ve entegrasyonunu pratik hale getirmiştir. Geçmişten günümüze etkileri çığ gibi büyüyen markalaşma hali, marka yönetimi stratejilerinin ayrılmaz bir parçası olmuştur ve markaların başarı adımlarında önemli bir rol oynamıştır.David Aaker, kurumsal kimlik konusunda önemli katkılarda bulunan akademisyen ve yazarlardan biridir. Aaker, “Building Strong Brands” (Güçlü Markalar İnşa Etmek) adlı kitabında, marka yönetimi ve kurumsal kimlik konularına değinerek bu alanda öncü bir figür olarak kabul edilmiştir. Bu alandaki diğer önemli figürler arasında Wally Olins, Paul Rand, Saul Bass gibi isimler de bulunmaktadır. Ancak, kurumsal kimlik kavramının evrimi birçok farklı faktör ve etkenle şekillendiği için, tek bir öncü belirlemek oldukça güçtür. Bu sebeple öncü isimleri dönemsel olarak, gelişen ve genişleyen unsurlar çerçevesinde incelemekte fayda vardır. (Aaker, 1996 s.41).Kurumsal kimlik tasarımı, bir şirketin veya kurumun görsel olarak temsil edildiği ve tanındığı bir dizi grafik öğeyi içerir. Bu öğeler, kurumsal kimlik tasarımının yapısal ve biçimsel özelliklerini oluşturur. Bu sebeple kurumsal kimlik tasarımı; kurumun değerlerini, kültürünü ve kimliğini yansıtarak genel bir birlik ve tanıma sağlar. Tarihsel süreç içindeki bu olgunun gelişimi, hem kimlik algısının tam olarak oturması hem de tasarım çözümlemesi açısından çeşitlenmesi ile farklı üsluplar ve yeniliklerle evrimleşmiştir. Bu evrim, kurumsal kimlik tasarımının yapısında biçimsel değişikliklere yol açmıştır. Bu noktada, yapısal ve biçimsel özelliklerin neler olduğunu açıklığa kavuşturmadan önce; bu değişimin, araştırmanın doğru bir şekilde iletilmesi ve anlaşılabilirliğinin artması açısından önemini vurgulamak gerekmektedir. 2. KURUMSAL KİMLİK TASARIMININ YAPISAL VE BİÇİMSEL ÖZELLİKLERİ Görsel kimlik tasarımının inşasında; kurumsal kimliğin iletişimsel, işlevsel ve etken yönlerinin belirlenmesi, paydaşlar ve alıcılar arasında algı gücünü arttırmaktadır. Bu sebeple; kurumsal kimlik tasarımının yapısal ve biçimsel özellikleri belirlenirken; markanın karakter oluşumunu, vizyon-misyonunu ve tanımlayıcı unsurlarını kapsar. Bu unsurlar sayesinde kurumsal kimlik tasarımının en temel oluşum özellikleri şekillenir. Logo, renk paleti, tipografi, illüstrasyon, fotoğraf, görsel iletişim kuralları, kurumsal belge şablonları, kurumsal iletişim stili; slogan ve 934 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal iletişim tonu, ambalaj tasarımı ile promosyon ürünleri bu unsurları oluşturur ve görsel kimliği belirler (Olins, 1989, s.464-467). Bir markanın kaliteli ve prestijli duruş sergileyebilmesi için kimlik olgusu üzerine bir görsel çözümleme oluşturması gerekmektedir. Bu görsel çözümleme de yapısal ve biçimsel özelliklerinin tespit edilip, bu üslupta inşa edilmesi ile mümkün olmaktadır. Biçimsel özellikler, kurumsal kimliği oluşturan öğelerin formunu, ergonomik biçimini kapsar. Yapısal özellikler ise antetli kağıt, kartvizit, afiş, flyer, zarf ve dosya çeşitleri, bigilendirme grafikleri, isimlikler vb. ürünleri kapsamaktadır. Bu ürünlerin yanında da promosyon ürünleri olarak belirlenen kurumsal kimliğin en belirgin taşıyıcı ürünleri vardır. Kurumsal kimlik ürünlerinin aynı üsluba ait bir şekilde mutabık kalarak tasarlanması; markanın akılda kalıcılığını ve bu sayede bilinirliliğini arttırır. Tercih edilen renk skalası, markanın karakteristik olarak oluşturulan kimlik inşasının duygu ve atmosferini yansıtarak tüketiciyle duygusal bağ kurmasını elverişli kılar. Renk paletinin tutarlı kullanımı da marka algısının güçlenmesine fayda sağlar. Bununla birlikte, markanın kimlik olgusuyla bütünleşen yazı karakterleri ve tipografi tercihleri; markanın yazılı iletişiminin bütününü oluşturur. Tasarlanan tipografik görselleştirme, markanın profesyonel ve güvenilir bir imaj sergilemesini destekler. Tipografi unsurunun güçlü ifadesi; fotoğraf ve imgelere senkronize bir şekilde, görsel kimliğin genel estetiğini belirler. Bir diğer unsurlardan biri de markanın reklam sloganı ve iletişim kanalını oluşturan iletişim tonudur. İletişim tonu; markanın kişiliği ile birlikte sesini ifade eder. Bu sebeple; bir üslubu biçimsel olarak marka ile eşleştirmek, markanın tutarlı bir duruşa sahip olmasına katkı sağlar. Bunun yanında, kurumsal kimlik oluşumu için tasarlanan promosyon ürünleri ve diğer iletişim araçları üzerinde kullanılan kurumsal belirteçler, markanın yekpare bir üslupta algılanmasına katkıda bulunur. Promosyon ürünleri: Kimliğin taşıyıcı rolünü üstlenmesi ile birlikte tüketiciyle en yaygın ve pratik şekilde etkileşim kuran grafik ürünlerdir. Promosyon ürünlerine kimlik algısını aktaran tipografi, imge, renk, fotoğraf, illüstrasyon gibi unsurlar; logo ile birlikte nokta, çizgi, renk, biçim, yön, ölçü, aralık ve doku gibi tasarım prensiplerinin çerçevesinde kurgulanır. Kurumsal kimlik tasarımının, tasarım prensiplerinin kullanım kolaylığının ve birliğinin sağlanması açısından kılavuzları oluşturulur. Oluşturulan kılavuzlarda; grafik ürünlerin kullanım kuralları ve standartları mevcuttur. Bu standartlar, materyallerin ve iletişim araçlarının bir bütünlük içinde olmasını, iletinin net ve etkili bir şekilde aktarılmasını sağlar.Başarılı bir tasarım ortaya çıkabilmesi için kurumun kimliğini yansıtan yapısal ve biçimsel özelliklerin ön planda olması gerekmektedir. Örneğin; kullanılan kırmızı renginin tonu, fontun sans veya serifli tercih edilmesi, minimal çizgilerin görsel öğelere eşlikçi olması, imgenin güçlü ifadesi ve kimlik olgusuyla şekillenen illüstratif çözümleme gibi 935 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yapıların spesifik oluşu; tarihte birçok markanın ikonik hale gelmesine katkı sağlayan unsurlara örnektir. Bu yapısal ve biçimsel özelliklerin şekillenmesi ilk olarak Bauhaus öğretisi ile başlamıştır.1920’li yıllarda Almanya'da kurulan Bauhaus okulu, estetik olgusu ile tasarımın işlevselliğini birleştiren bir ekol ile eğitim vermiştir. Kurumsal kimliğin babası olarak anılan Behrens’in öğretilerinin etkisinde olan Bauhaus disiplini, modern kurumsal kimlik tasarımının temellerine katkıda bulunan minimalist ve fonksiyonel tasarım prensiplerini benimsemiştir (Chakraborty and Forgas, 1997, s.15-30). Kurumsal kimlik tasarımının yapısal ve biçimsel özellikleri tarihsel süreçte, birçok markanın gelişimi ve pazar lideri oluşumu nedeniyle evrilerek günümüze kadar aktarılmıştır. IBM (International Business Machines) markası, bu süreç içerisindeki önemli bir örnektir. IBM, 1950’li yıllardan beri kurumsal kimlik tasarımı alanında öncü markalardan biri olmuştur. 1956'da Paul Rand, 1956 yılında ünlü “IBM” logosunu tasarlamıştır (Rand, 1993, s.113). Bu logonun tasarım tercihi olarak, sade ve modern oluşu ile döneme damga vurmuş, dikkat çekmiştir. Minimal yapısıyla öncü olan bu logo, mavi renk kullanımı ile markanın güvenilirliliğine atıfta bulunarak profesyonelliğine vurgu yapmış ve ikonik hale gelmiştir. Geniş ürün yelpazesi ile karmaşık bir teknoloji markası olmasına tezat, yalın ve açıklayıcı bir dil ile inşa edilmiş kurumsal kimlik tasarımı onu döneminde spesifik kılmıştır.Bu kronolojik düzende aktarılan ve döneminde elde ettiği başarı ile kalıcı olan örnekler, kurumsal kimlik tasarımının zaman kavramı ile nasıl evrildiğini ve tasarımsal prensipleri nasıl benimsediğini göstermektedir. Her örnek, döneminin sosyo-kültürel ve tasarım trendlerine uygun bir şekilde, markanın kimlik inşasına göre nasıl oluştuğunu; yapısal ve biçimsel özelliklerinin belirleyici unsurlarını yansıtmaktadır. Kurumsal kimlik tasarımının; marka logosu, renk paleti, tipografi, ambalaj tasarımı gibi unsurları, promosyon ürünlerinde kimliğin taşıyıcısı olarak rol üstlenmektedir. Promosyon ürünleri; bir markanın değerlerini, kalitesini yansıtarak hedef kitlesine tutarlı ve bütünsel bir izlenim sunar. Günümüzde, dijital pazarlama ve sosyal medya gibi faktörlerin etkisiyle kurumsal kimlik tasarımı daha da önemli hale gelmiş ve bu sayede markaların sektörlerinde rekabet avantajı kazanmalarını sağlamıştır. Böylece kurumsal kimlik tasarımı sadece bir estetik tercih değil, aynı zamanda stratejik bir iletişim aracı haline gelmiştir. 3. KURUMSAL KİMLİK TAŞIYISI OLARAK PROMOSYON ÜRÜNLERİ Kurumsal kimlik taşıyıcısı olarak tasarlanan promosyon ürünleri, bir markanın veya kurumun pazarda pozitif algısını desteklemek için kullanılan etkili bir stratejik araçtır. Promosyon ürünleri; fiziksel olarak temsil edilen, markanın kimlik olgusunu doğrudan aktaran ve bir taşıyıcı olarak genellikle logonun öne çıktığı tasarımlarla şekillenmektedir. Tanınabilirlik ve 936 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal marka imajı, müşteri sadakati ve memnuniyeti, reklam ve pazarlama etkisi, çeşitlilik ve kişiselleştirme, etkileşim ve iletişim promosyon ürünlerinin etki alanlarıdır (Mullin, 2010, s.3543).Promosyon ürünleri, kurumun kimliğini oluşturan görsel elemanlardan; logo, renk paleti, illüstrasyon, fotoğraf, tipografi, gibi özgün unsurlarını içerdiği için markanın bilinirliğini arttıran en önemli taşıyıcılardır. Promosyon ürünlerinin aktarımı ile paydaşlar, alıcılar ve marka çalışanları aidiyet duygusu ile güçlü bir bağ kurar ve bu marka imajına olumlu şekilde yansır (Airey, 2019, s. 14-19). Ücretsiz olarak verilen veya uygun fiyatlı satılan promosyon ürünleri, alıcılar için değerli bir hediyeyi temsil eder. Bu durum, paydaşlara kıyasla memnuniyet yaratır ve marka sadakatini kazandırır. Promosyon ürünleri, taşıyıcısı olduğu marka üslubunu farklı kategorilerdeki küçük ürünler ile alıcılara sürekli bir hatırlatma sağlar. Özellikle günlük kullanımda bu ürünler, rutinlerinde markanın varlığını sürekli kılar, böylece çok etkili bir reklam ve organik kanallarla iletilen bir pazarlama aracı haline gelir. Promosyon ürünlerinin geniş bir yelpazesi vardır. Bu çeşitlilik, markanın hedef kitlesine uygun olarak seçilebilir. Ürünlerin çeşitliliği arttırılabilir ve potansiyel taşıyan alıcılara veya hedef gruplara istinaden özeleştirilmesi mümkündür. Promosyon ürünleri, marka ile potansiyel alıcılar arasında doğrudan bir etkileşim kanalıdır. Etkin bir promosyon stratejisi planlanırsa, alıcı ile marka arasında iletişim doğru bir şekilde kurulabilir, güçlendirilebilir ve böylece markanın geniş kitlelere ulaşmasını sağlanabilir.Kurumsal kimliğin taşıyıcısı olarak kullanılan promosyon ürünleri: kalem, defter, ajanda, bardak, termos anahtarlık, rozet; şapka, tişört, çorap, havlu, önlük ve kanvas çanta gibi tekstil ürünleri; usb bellek ve teknoloji ürünleri, fuar stand ürünleri ile kristal ürünler gibi geniş bir ürün yelpazesine sahiptir. Markanın sektörüne göre de spesifik olarak çeşitlilik gösterebilir (Airey, 2019, s.235-240). Markayı taşıyan etkili iletişim araçları, promosyon ürünleri, fiziksel nesneler aracılığıyla marka mesajını iletmek ve alıcı ile doğrudan etkileşim kurmak amacıyla kullanılan güçlü bir aracıdır. İyi planlanmış bir promosyon ürün stratejisi, markanın tanınabilirliğini arttırıp, hedef kitleyle güçlü bir bağ kurabilir. Bu nedenle, işletmelerin promosyon ürünlerini etkili bir şekilde kullanmaları, marka yönetimi ve pazarlama stratejilerini destekleyerek prestij sağlar ve başarıya giden yolda önemli bir adımdır. Kibrit kutusu tasarımı da promosyon ürünleri içerisinde görsel üslubu ve işlevselliği bir arada yansıtarak marka imajını güçlendirebilecek önemli bir üründür.Markanın kimliğini yansıtan bir tasarım, kibrit kutusunu sadece bir tasarım çözümü olarak değil, aynı zamanda markanın özünü yansıtan bir taşıyıcı haline getirir. Örneğin, kibrit kutusunun ambalaj tasarımında; yumuşak tonlarda bir yüzey üzerine yerleştirilmiş marka logosu, markanın öne çıkan renklerini ve sembollerini vurgular. Aynı zamanda, kutunun üzerindeki minimalist tasarım veya çizim ile 937 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal tercih edilen yazı karakterleri, modern ve sofistike bir imaj yaratır. Kibrit kutusunun tasarımı kadar formu da markanın bir taşıyıcısı olarak kabul edilir. Genellikle dikdörtgen formda kullanılan biçim, markanın tasarım üslubuna göre; kare, iki kanatlı, çekmeceli, diyagonal açılı sağ-sol bitişli gibi farklı fonksiyonellikte tasarlanabilir. Böylece, kullanıcılar günlük hayatta kibritleri kullanırken markayı hatırlayacak ve marka sadakati oluşturacaktır. Kibrit kutusu tasarımı, küçük boyutuna rağmen marka etkileşimini ve tanıtımını maksimum seviyeye çıkarmak için güçlü bir araçtır. 4. KİBRİT KUTUSU TASARIMI Kibrit kutusu tasarımı, kibritin icadından başlayarak zaman içindeki evrimi ve tasarımındaki değişiklikleri içerir. Kibritin İcadı, Kimyager John Walker tarafından 1826'da tesadüfen kibritin ilk formülünü keşfedilmiştir (Stone, 2014). Ancak, bu kibritler zamanla güvenlik sorunlarına neden olduğu için pek popüler olmamıştır. 1830 yılında ise fosforlu kibrit icat edilmiştir. İsveçli kimyager Jöns Jakob Berzelius ve İngiliz mucit Charles Sauria, güvenli ve kullanışlı bir kibrit formülü olarak bu kibriti geliştirmişlerdir. Bu yeni kibrit türü, sülfür ve fosfor içeren başlığı sayesinde sürtüşmeyle ateşlenmektedir. 1836 yılında üretilen kibritlerin kullanımının fonksiyonel olması açısından İngiliz kâğıt üreticisi olan Joshua Pusey, ilk pratik kibrit kutusunu tasarlamıştır (Jones, 2004, s.7-12.) Bu tasarım, günümüzdeki en yaygın kullanımı olan; kibritleri içeren bir kutunun yan tarafındaki sürtüşme yüzeyi ile kibritleri ateşleme prensibine dayanmaktadır. 19. yüzyılın sonlarına doğru gelişen ve değişen kibrit kutusu tasarımları; materyal ve yüzey kullanımı açısından da zenginleşmiştir. O dönemlerde metal, karton, tahta dokularında üretilen kutular, çeşitli konulardaki illüstratif anlatımlarla oluşturulmuştur. 20. yüzyılda kibrit kutusu tasarımları, marka tanıtımı ve pazarlaması amacıyla promosyon ürünü olarak kullanılmaya başlanmıştır. Reklam ve marka bilincini kazandırmak amacıyla 20. yüzyıl sanat akımlarının izleriyle renkli baskı teknolojisinin de gelişimi ile birlikte dikkat çekici illüstrasyon ve tipografi kullanımları kibrit kutularına entegre edilmiştir.20. yüzyıl ortalarında, 1930-1960’lı yıllar arasında; ikinci Dünya Savaşı sonrasında, Amerika ve Avrupa’da Midcentury tasarım öne çıkan bir stil olmuştur. Bu dönemde tasarımcılar, modernlik ve işlevselliği ön planda tutmuşlardır. Savaş sonras döneminin adaptasyonunu kolaylaştırmak için modern tasarımcılar, yeni bir kimlik oluşturma yolunda ilerlerken; güzellik kavramına basitlik, rahatlık ve konfor katmak için tamamen yenilikçiliğe yönelmiştir. 1980’ler sonrası post modernizmin hakimiyeti ile birlikte karmaşıklığı, ironiyi, parodi ve referansları içeren bir renkli bir estetik ile bilinir. Nonkonformist yaklaşımlar ve sembolizm ile öne çıkan Postmodernizm dönemi; grafik tasarımın ve reklam stratejilerinin yükselişte olması sebebiyle, kibrit kutusu 938 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal tasarımlarının da daha çeşitli ve çarpıcı olmasına olanak tanımıştır (Antmen, 2003, s.30-33s.112) 2000’ler ve daha sonrası: Diğer ambalaj tasarımlarında olduğu gibi, kibrit kutusu ambalaj tasarımlarında da çevre dostu materyaller ile yenilikçi tasarımlar daha çok ön planda tutulmuştur. Son yıllarda, geri dönüşüm bilincinin de artmasıyla birlikte; çevre dostu malzemelerin ve sıfır atık ambalajlarının önem kazanması, kibrit kutusu tasarımlarında da çevreci tasarımsal tercihler odak haline gelmiştir. Bu doğa dostu tasarımlar ve geri dönüştürülebilir materyaller, tüketicilerin dikkatini çekmeye başladı. Bugün, kibrit kutusu ambalaj tasarımları, markanın kimlik olgusu, hedef kitle beklentileri ve çevresel farkındalık gibi faktörlerle paralel olarak çeşitli ve özgün tasarlanabilmektedir. Estetik, ergonomik tasarım ve popüler tüketim kaygılarıyla kurumsal kimliğin bir taşıyıcısı olarak tasarlanan kibrit kutusu tasarımlarının her biri, kendi içinde benzersiz özelliklere sahip ve farklı hedef kitleler üzerine etki etmektedir. Kurumsal kimlik tasarımının yapısal ve biçimsel özellikleri bölümünde bahsedilen, marka sloganı ve ileti tonu da tasarımların dönemsel olarak etkisindeki önemli bir unsur olmuştur. 5. 20.YÜZYIL SANAT AKIMLARI ÇERÇEVESİNDE KİBRİT KUTUSU TASARIMLARININ İLLÜSTRATİF ÇÖZÜMLEMESİ 20. yüzyıl sanat akımlarının geniş yelpazesinde; promosyon ürünlerinden biri olan, kurumsal kimlik taşıyıcısı kibrit kutusu tasarımları, dönemine ait birçok farklı estetik üslubun ve tasarım anlayışının izlerini taşımaktadır. 20. Yüzyıl sanat akımlarının etkisiyle kibrit kutusu ambalaj tasarımlarında görülen illüstratif betimlemelerin, etkisinin görüldüğü bazı sanat akımları arasında; Bauhaus, Art Deco, Pop Art, Minimalizm ve Postmodernizm vardır (Denvir, 1992). Bu akımların kibrit kutusu tasarımlarındaki kurumsal kimliğin olası etkilerini kronolojik olarak dönemine göre incelenmesi araştırmanın amacını oluşturmaktadır. Naftagas Promet isimli petrol markası Sırbistan'ın Voyvodina yerleşkesini mesken tutmuş, 19. Yüzyılın erken döneminin ilk yarısında kurulmuştur. Kibrit kutusu tasarımında, diagonal 939 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal kompozisyon ve dengeli dağılmış unsurlar kullanılmıştır. Bu özellikler, Bauhaus tarzının genel kurumsal kimlik özelliklerini yansıtmaktadır. 1933’te sanat okulu kapanmasına rağmen etkisini çok uzun yıllar farklı disiplinler üzerinde de gösteren Bauhaus ekolü; kibrit kutusu tasarımında da kullanılan display ve stencil fontun, Bauhaus dönemindeki Joost yazı biçimine atıfta bulunmaktadır. “Joost type adını, Bauhaus’ta eğitmen olan tipografi tasarımcısı Joost Schmidt’ten almıştır” (Akitera, 2019). José Manuel Urós, 1995’teki ilk tasarımlarında Schmidt’in “bauhaus im gewerbemuseum basel” posteri ve Bauhaus’un farklı stilleri üzerinden yazı biçimini geliştirmiştir. Bauhaus, 20. yüzyılın ilk döneminde, Almanya'da bir sanat okulu ve tasarım akımı olarak, fonksiyonelliği ve estetiği birleştiren bir tasarım anlayışını benimsemiştir (Grapius, 1997, s.231-237). Kibrit kutusu tasarımında bu etki; linear espaslar, geometrik formlar ve kullanım öncelikleriyle kendini göstermektedir. Bauhaus'un minimalizmi, kurumsal kimlik tasarımında sade ve işlevsel unsurların önemini vurgular. Bu dönemde kullanılan; kırmızı, mavi, sarı gibi canlı renkler yalın ve dengeli kullanımı ile öne çıkaran bir estetik, birçok kurumsal markanın kimlik tasarımında etkili olmuştur. Jupiter Markası: 1960’lı yıllarda etkisinin görüldüğü Minimalizm akımının etkisinde, kibrit kutusu tasarımlarında dönemini yansıtan kutu üzerinde basit geometrik desenler ve düz hatlar kullanmıştır. Renk paleti nötr tonlara ve belirgin kontrastlara odaklanmıştır. Logo ve marka adı, Bauhaus tarzında minimalist bir yazı tipiyle tasarlanmıştır. Minimalizm akımı (ABC sanatı), gereksiz detaylardan kaçınarak sadeliği vurgulamaktadır Kibrit kutusu tasarımında da bu yaklaşım; karmaşıklıktan uzak, yalın anlatım ve dengeli espas kullanımı ile işlevselliği ön plana çıkarmaktadır. Bu anlatım, sadelik, temizlik ve azaltılma prensibine dayanmaktadır. Bu marka, kutunun yüzeyinde tek bir renk tonu kullanarak bu anlatım dilini pekiştirmektedir. Marka logosu, display yazı karakteri ile light kullanımda tercih edimiş, küçük ve zarif bir şekilde boyutlandırılarak kutunun alt kısmında yer almış böylece illüstratif form ile bütünleşmiştir. 940 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Minimalizm’in en önemli belirleyici tasarım ilkesi; negatif-pozitif alan kullanımı ve dengesidir. Tasarlanan boşluklar, tasarımın odaklanılmasını ve anlaşılmasını kolaylaştırır. Aktarılan Kurumsal kimlik olgusu imge ile birlikte en yalın haliyle tasarımda yerini almıştır. Minimalist tasarımın bir diğer temel prensiplerinden biri de fonksiyonelliktir. Bu sebeple kibrit kutusu tasarımı, kullanıcıya pratik ve ergonomik bir kullanım sunacak şekilde tasarlanmıştır. Minimalist tasarım, tasarımın özüne odaklanmayı ve detaylardan kaçınmayı amaçlayan bir yaklaşım olduğu için kurumsal kimlikte de sadelik, şıklık ve anlaşılabilirlik öne çıkar. Bu prensipler ile tasarlanan kibrit kutusu tasarımı marka kimliğini güçlendirmiş ve tüketicilerle etkileşimini arttırmıştır. Mann Mobilia, Art Deco akımının etkisinde Alman asıllı bir endüstriyel ürün tasarımı markasıdır. 1920'lerin sonlarına doğru ortaya çıkan Art Deco akımı; kontrastı yüksek parlak renkler, geometrik desen ve formlar, lüks detaylar ve modernizmin etkilerini içermektedir. Bu akım, lüks ve süslemenin önemli olduğu bir stil olarak bilinir (Benton, 2015). Bu sebeple döneminde, özellikle de lüks markaların kimlik tasarımında etkili olmuştur. Kibrit kutusu tasarımında bu etki, detaylı desenler, parlak renkler ve simetrik düzenlemelerle ifade bulmuştur. Şık ve lüks bir üslup ile kullanılan geometrik desenler ve zarif süslemeler ve organik formların geometrik çözümlemesi ile kullanılmıştır. Art Deco'nun belirgin özelliklerinden biri, jeoformik (geometrik) desenlerin ve çizgilerin kullanımıdır. Kare, dikdörtgen, üçgenler gibi şekiller ile kullanılan tasarım unsurları akımın belirleyici özelliklerindendir. Kibrit kutusu tasarımlarında bu tarz öğeler, düzenli ve estetik bir görünüm sağlayabilir. Art Deco, simetriye ve dengeye önem veren bir tarzdır. Kibrit kutusu tasarımlarında simetrik düzenlemeler ve dengeli kompozisyonlar, kurumsal kimliğin düzenli ve profesyonel bir izlenim bırakmasına katkı sağlamaktadır. Art Deco, dekoratif unsurları vurgular; kibrit kutusu tasarımlarında zenginleştirilmiş detaylar, markanın dikkat çekici ve özgün bir görsel kimliği aktarmada rol 941 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal oynamıştır. Art Deco’nun, 1930'ların orta dönemlerine kadar uzanan dönemde, sandalye ve mobilya tasarımına belirgin bir yansıması görülmektedir. Bu akımın; geometrik desenler, simetrik hatlar ve lüks malzemelerin öne çıktığı bir estetikle özdeşleşmesi sebebiyle, sandalye tasarımlarında da sıklıkla görülen dikdörtgen hatlar, zarif süslemeler ve cilalı ahşap gibi öğeler Art Deco'nun imzası niteliğindedir (VAM, 2015). Canlı renk kontrastları, sürrealist motifler ve egzotik detaylar da bu tarzın mobilya tasarımına kattığı karakteristik özellikler arasındadır. Art Deco'nun mobilya tasarımına getirdiği modern ve çağının ötesindeki hatları, günümüzde bile popülerliğini koruyan şık ve çağdaş tasarımların ilham kaynağını oluşturmuştur. Bu akım, işlevsellik ve konforu kollektif bir şekilde kullanarak, mobilya dünyasında da estetik açıdan çarpıcı ve zamansız eserlere imza atmıştır. Mann Mobilia isimli marka, Art Deco tazrı mobilya tasarımlarını, kibrit kutusunun içinde konumlandırırken, canlı, kontrastı yüksek ve simetrik logo tasarımını kurumsal kimlik rengi olan “fire engine red” ile kibrit kutusunun ambalaj tasarımını kurgulamıştır. Pop Art, günlük tüketilen nesneleri ve tüketim kültürünü sanat ile yorumlayan bir akımdır. Kibrit kutusu tasarımında, kullanılan canlı renkler, büyük grafikler ve popüler kültürü referans eden unsurlar ile bu etki net bir şekilde görülmektedir. 1950'lerin sonlarından itibaren ortaya çıkan Pop Art, popüler kültürden beslenir ve sıkça solid parlak renkleri, grafik desenleri ve büyük ölçekli imgeler içerir. Pop Art'ın enerjik ve canlı görsel inşası, döneminde bazı markaların dinamik kurumsal kimlik tasarımlarına ilham olmuştur (Restany, 1997, s. 344-349). Bu sanat hareketi; basitletirilmiş, net, vurgulu ve kontürlü şekiller, desenler ve tekrarlanan öğeleri görselleştirir. Kibrit kutusu tasarımlarında, ikonik pop art öğeleri; şeritler, yıldızlar, noktalar kullanılmıştır. Pop art, mizah ve esprili unsurlarını görselletirmede kullanırken, dönemindeki tasarım ve sanatçılara esneklik kazandırmıştır. İllüstratif anlatımda, sıklıkla ünlü 942 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal kişilikleri, markaları ve simgeleri içermektedir. Pop art, enerji, dinamizm ve hareketi yansıtan bir stildir. Alman asıllı marka, Knalleinlagen; “Knalleinlagen für Zigaretten” isimli kampanyası için tasarladığı kibrit kutularını satışı olmadan, ücretsiz promosyon ürünü olarak ortaya çıkarmıştır. “Sigara dolu patlayan havaifişekler” mottosuyla pop art sanat hareketinin anlatım dilini benimsemişlerdir. Genellikle görselleştirilen kadın imgesi, ikonik olan patlangaç formu ile sigaraya vurgu yapar nitelikte illüstre edilmiştir. Tercih edilen parlak pembe tonu ile siyahbeyaz kontrastı nötr dengesini sağlamak için tasarlanmıştır. De Stijl hareketi, 20. yüzyılın erken döneminde Hollandalı sanatçı ve tasarımcıların bir araya gelerek oluşturduğu kollektif bir sanat ve tasarım akımıdır. Bu akım, soyut geometrik biçimleri ve temel renkleri, onların üst üste gelişinden oluşan katmanlı bir anlatımı vurgulayan estetik anlayışa sahiptir. De Stijl'in öncülerinden biri olan Theo Van Doesburg'un görselleştirdiği geometrik grid imgelemi, bu akımın en önemli temsillerini taşımaktadır. De Stijl prensipleri, geometrik yapılanmaya ve simetrik düzenlemeye büyük önem vermektedir (Doesburg, 1992, s. 270-281).Kibrit kutusu tasarımında da düzenli ve geometrik desenler, simetrik düzenlemeler ve net hatlar kullanılmıştır. De Stijl akımının temel temsil renkleri: kırmızı, sarı ve mavi vurgulardır. Genellikle düz beyaz veya kontrastı düşük zemin tercih edilir. Bu sayede tasarım, sade ve modern bir görünüme kavuşur. Kibrit kutusu tasarımında da sade ve minimalist bir 943 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yaklaşım izlenerek, fazla detaydan kaçınılmıştır. Die Einrichtung isimli marka; tasarladığı renk blokları ile tasarımın görsel ihtişamını arttırmış, tasarladığı modüler yapılar ile birimleri kullanılarak, bütünsel bir uyum ve denge sağlamıştır. Kibrit kutusu tasarımları alternatifli olarak üretilmiş fakat aynı üsluba mutabık kalınmıştır. Marka, kibrit kutularının formları farklı olsa bile kedni içerisinde De stijl akımının tasarım prensiplerini sürdürmüştür. Birinci kibrit kutusu tasarımında, gri solid bir yüzey üzerine beyaz lekeleri ve siyah yarım çerçevesi ile dinamik bir anlatıya sahip olan bir görselleştirme tercih edilmiştir. Logo, dönemin tipografik diline atıfta bulunan serifli ve kapalı espas yazı karakteri ile tasarlanmıştır. Kibrit kutusunun kurumsal kimlik tasarımı ile bütünsel olarak ele alındığı birinci kibritte; kutunun iç bölümünün arka yüzeyi daha parlak bir materyalden seçilirken, kibritlerin de kimlik inşasının bir parçası olarak o renklerde çeşitlenmesi promosyon ürünlerinin kurumsal kimliğin en başarılı ve işlevsel taşıyıcısı olduğuna örnek niteliğindedir. İkinci kibrit kutusu tasarımında, biçimsel olarak daha ergonomik bir form tercih edilmiştir. Katlanır yapısı ve inceliği sayesinde 20. Yüzyılın ikinci yarısında en çok tercih edilen kibrit kutusu formlarından biridir. Beyaz alanların denge kurduğu, logo kullanımı ve kimlik bilgilerinin büyük bir titizlikte; minimal bir estetikle tasarlandığı kibrit kutusunda da kibritlerin renk seçimi ve kırmızı fosfor, cam tozu ve bağlayıcı maddeden oluşan ateşleme yüzeyi tasarıma uygun, linear çizgiyi takip etmektedir. Sürrealizm; “rüya” kavramının uçsuz bucaksızlığı gibi soyut ve düşsel öğeler ile imgelerin oluştuğu bir sanat akımıdır. Bu akımın etkileri, dönemindeki bazı markaların kimlik olgularında yaratıcı ve çağrışımsal inşaların kurulumuna şekil vermiştir. Sürrealizm, temsili olan soyut desenler ve renklerle birlikte gerçeküstü duygusal bir anlatımda, rasyonel bir hayal gücünü vurgular. Tasarıma gerçeküstü öğelerin, hayali figürlerin, fantastik unsurların eklenmesi, canlı, kontrastlı ve sıra dışı renklerin kullanılması; gerçeküstü atmosferini vurgulamaktadır (Chirico, 944 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 1992, s.59-63). Sürrealist tarza uygun olarak, dışbükey ve içbükey formların kullanılması; şekillerin normalde beklenmeyen biçimlerde metamorfoz ve deforme oluşu ile birlikte absürd bir anlatım dili, kompozisyonlarda rüya gibi bir atmosfer yaratmak için soyut ve akışkan formların kullanılması ile ilintilidir. Sürrealist bakış açısı; sanatın “rüya” kavramındaki izdüşümüne, dünyanın yansıyan unsurlarına entegrasyonudur. Mekansal ilizyonlar, hava perspektifiyle oluşan derinlik algısını için kullanılan görsel teknikleri ve duygusal etkileri vurgular. Hereinspaziert isimli marka, tarihi1907 yıllarına dayanan köklü bir restaurant işletmesi ve bira üreticisir. “Gasthaus zum fischmeister” (balık ustasının misafirhanesi) mottosuyla, kurumsal kimliğinin bir taşıyıcısı olarak sürrealist tarzda illüstre edilmiş kibrit kutusunu tasarlamıştır. Balık formu, anlam bulanıklaştırmaya yönelik ele alındığı gerçeküstü bir anlatım ile görselleştirilmiştir. Döneminde, olağanüstü imgelemi ile kurumsal kimliği ilgi çekici hale getirmiş, alıcıya mesajı ve marka kimliğini pratik bir şekilde taşımıştır. Fütürizm, 20. yüzyılın erken dönenimde etkili olan bir sanat ve tasarım akımıdır. Bu akım, endüstrileşme dalgasının yaygınlaştığı ve teknolojinin hızlı bir ivmeyle yükselişe geçtiği dönemde varlığını sürdürmüştür. Fütürist tarzda üretilen tasarımlar; hareket, enerji, hız ve dinamizmi vurgular (Carra, 1997, s.97-100). Kimlik taşıyıcısı promosyon ürünlerinden biri olan kibrit kutusu tasarımında; akıcı çizgiler, hareket izlenimi veren desenler ve enerjiyi yansıtan grafik öğelerle bu akımın yansımaları görülmektedir. Fütürist tasarımlar genellikle keskin hatlar ile geometrik şekillerden oluşur. Bu oluşum, Fütürizm’in yapıtaşları olan dinamizm ve hareket kavramları ile birlikte görülmektedir. Kibrit kutusu tasarımında da bu özellikler, modern ve teknolojik bir üslupta ele alınmıştır. Kullanılan canlı ve kontrastlı renkler, Fütürizm tarzında üretilen tasarımların vazgeçilmez özelliklerindendir. Fütürist tarz, teknoloji ve endüstriyel 945 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal gelişmelere olan ilgiyi yansıtarak metalik yüzeyler, dişli çarklar, dijital öğeler gibi unsurları içerirerek akımın spesifik görsel inşasını kapsamaktadır. Bu unsurlar, Kroplın Schnelltaster markasının inovasyon ve moderniteye vurgu yapmasına yardımcı olmuştur. Kroplın Schnelltaster, “Pur schnelles messen” mottosu ile saf hızlı ölçüm vaadi veren bir ölçü ekipmanları markasıdır. Ölçüm cihazı, horoz figürünün başı ve gagası ile dijital ve soyut öğeler kullanılarakillüstre edilmiştir. Kullanılan renkler ve geometrik parçalanmaklar; soyut imgenin teknolojik ve dinamik üslup ile fütüristik bir algıda tasarlanması ile akımın temel prensiplerine gönderme yapmaktadır. Kullanılan tipografinin görsel öğe olarak diyagonal kompoze edilmesi, illüstrasyonun ölçüm cihazına atıfta bulunan formu ile paralellik göstermektedir. Tüm bu tasarım çözümlemesi ile marka, geleceğe yönelik bir bakış açısını yansıtarak inovasyonu vurgulamıştır (Marinetti, 1997, s.75-81). Dadaizm, diğer adıyla başkaldırı. 20. yüzyılın ilk yarısında, Edebiyat ve sanatta etkisini göstermiştir. Dadaizm akımı, folklorik sanat ve kültür normlarına karşı bir duruş sergileyerek; rasyonalite, mantık ve anlamın geleneksel nizama tezatlık olarak ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu akımın etkisi altında tasarlanan Ostmann kibrit kutusu tasarımı; absürd, ironik ve çelişki uyandıran imgelere sahiptir. Dadaizm, kaotik düzende rasgelelik nosyonuyla varolmuştur. Tasarımlar anlamın dışında, beklenmedik şekilde düzenlenmiş, rastgele öğeler içermektedir. Dadaist tasarımlar, geleneksel tasarım prensiplerine başkaldırı niteliğindedir. Bu sebeple; simetri, düzen ve diğer geleneksel tasarım ilkelerini bilinçli bir şekilde ihlal eder. Böylece Dadaizm, anlamsızlığa ve çelişkiye vurgu yapmaktadır. Bunun sonucunda Tasarımlar, birbiriyle çelişen öğelerin kombinasyonu ve zaman-mekan uyuşmazlığı çerçevesinde, anlamsız bağlantılar kurarak izleyiciyi düşündürmeyi amaçlar. Bu tasarımlar, toplumsal normlara, siyasi yapıya 946 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal veya sanatsal konvansiyonlara karşı bir eleştiri içerir (Dempsey, 2007). Dadaizm, yaratıcılığı teşvik eder ve geleneksel kalıplardan çıkarak yenilikçi ve özgün tasarımları destekler. Ostmann markası, çelişkisi ile ilgi çeken imgesel anlatımına eşlikçi olarak tasarladığı; diyagonal ve el yazısı ile özensizce oluşturulmuş, harf anatomisi ve üslup olmaksızın kurgulanan tipografisi ile “Vergessen sie nicht das gehackte dazu” (Doğranmış malzemeleri unutmayın) yazarak, imge ile tipografinin absürd algısına destek vermiştir. Kutunun arka yüzeyi, illüstratif imgenin lekesel değerine uygun; logoyu öne çıkaran nitelikte, daha solid yüzeylerle tasarlanmıştır. "Post izlenimcilik", 19. yüzyıl sonu, 20. yüzyıl ilk yıllarına doğru etkisini sürdüren bir sanat akımıdır. Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Post-İzlenimcilik akımının en önemli temsilcisidir. Paris'in gece hayatını konu alan eserlerinde; canlı ve cesur renkleri, dans sahnelerini, tiyatro ve kafe kültürünü kullanmıştır. Afiş tasarımlarını üstlendiği Moulin Rouge pavyonunun renkli sahnelerini büyük bir ihtişamla çalışmalarına yansıtmıştır. Bu tasarımlardaki tipografi kullanımı; büyük, dikkat çekici başlıklar ve elle yazılmış tarzda harf anatomileri ToulouseLautrec'in stili ile özdeşleşmiştir. Tasarımlardaki karakteristik duruşlar ve kompozisyonlar, dinamizm ve özgünlük döneminde üretilen bazı tasarımlara esneklik kazandırmıştır. Kibrit kutusu tasarımı, markanın kimliğini ve değerlerini yansıtmak için önemli bir araçtır. Paris merkezli, Stardust isimli Hotel ve Gasino markası; döneminde etkisini gösteren Post izlenimci akımın öncüsü, H. Toulouse -Lautrec’in kullanıdığı tipografi ile kontrastı yüksek, parlak renkler ve kadın imgesinin dans figürü olarak illüstre edilmesine atıfta bulunmaktadır. Kibrit kutusu tasarımı; ergonomik olarak kolay açılan ve inceliği yapısı ile taşınabilirliği pratik biçimde tercih edilmiş, kibritlerin renk seçimi logoya atıfta bulunan beyaz tonda oluşturulmuştur (Kolektif, 2005). 947 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Art Neuveau 6. SONUÇ Bu araştırma, kimlik olgusunun gelişimi ile birlikte kurumsal kimlik tasarımının taşıyıcısı kibrit kutusu tasarımlarının, 20. yüzyıl sanat akımlarının etkisiyle nasıl şekillendiği ve evrildiğini; bununla beraber markanın kimlik inşasını oluşturan unsurlarının da irdelenerek incelemesini amaçlamıştır. Markaların kimlik olgusunu güçlendirmek, algı oluşturmak ve hedef kitleye güçlü bir mesaj vermek amacıyla kullanılan kibrit kutusu tasarımları; sade ve işlevsel yapılarıyla birlikte dönemin sanat ve kültür akımlarını başarıyla yansıtırken estetik anlamda da birer zaman kapsülü gibidir. Her bir tasarımın içerdiği sanatsal öğeler ve dönemin estetik zevkleri, o döneme ait bir görsel dilin izlerini taşımaktadır. Kibrit kutusu tasarımlarının sadece günlük kullanım ürünleri olmanın ötesinde, aynı zamanda sanatsal ve kültürel birer ifade aracı olarak işlev gördüğü açığa kavuşturulmuştur. Araştırma aynı zamanda, kibrit kutusu tasarımlarının zaman içerisindeki değişimiyle beraber; teknolojik, toplumsal, sosyo-kültürel değişimleri ve sanatsal hareketlenmelerin tasarımları nasıl etkilediğini incelemiştir. Tasarımların evriminde, kurumsal kimlik tasarımındaki kimlik olgusunun adaptasyon kabiliyetini ve zamanla değişen kültürel etkileşimlere olan duyarlılığını vurgulamaktadır. Sonuç olarak, kibrit kutusu tasarımları üzerinden yapılan bu kapsamlı analiz, kurumsal kimlik tasarımının sadece marka tanıtımı değil, aynı zamanda kültürel ve sanatsal birer belge olarak nasıl değerlendirilebileceğini göstermektedir. Tasarımcılar, pazarlamacılar ve araştırmacılar için bu çalışma, kurumsal kimlik tasarımının geçmişten günümüze olan evrimini anlamak ve gelecekteki tasarım stratejilerini biçimlendirmek adına derinlemesine bir kaynak niteliği taşımaktadır. 948 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GÜNCEL BİR PROTEZ KAİDE MATERYALİ: POLİETERETERKETON (PEEK) Assoc. Prof. Fatma GÜR (ORCID: 0000-0001-5983-1472) Dentistry Services, Vocational School of Health Services Atatürk University, ErzurumTürkiye Email: fatmagur@atauni.edu.tr Abstract With the development of technology and the increasing interest in esthetic restorations, a high level of esthetics is sought in dentistry today. This situation is bringing new metal-free restorative materials to the fore every day in place of dentures with metal substructures. Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is preferred in dentistry as a denture base material, particularly because of its esthetic similarity to the natural tooth structure, its biocompatibility and its good physical and mechanical properties. PEEK belongs to the polyaryletherketone (PAEK) family and is widely used in dentistry due to its mechanical and thermal resistance, ease of sterilization, resistance to radiation, fatigue resistance and strong bond strength in restorations where it is used. PEEK is widely used as implant material, orthodontic wires, CAD/CAM (Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacturing) material, substructure in fixed prostheses, precision fittings in removable prostheses, hook and obturator prostheses. Due to their biocompatibility and excellent mechanical properties, these materials are ideal for rapid 3D design and prototyping of patient-specific implants and other specialty devices. Studies show that these materials are important in many clinical and biomedical applications such as orthopedics, oral and maxillofacial surgery, cardiovascular and cardiothoracic applications, dental applications and tissue engineering. However, there are important aspects to consider when working with these materials. First of all, exposure of PEEK to concentrated nitric acid and some halogen elements (such as chlorine and bromine) compromises its resistance to ionizing radiation and other important properties. Despite their desirable properties as an alternative to conventional metal compounds for use in drug delivery, clinical and surgical medicine, dentistry, etc., the use of materials such as PEEK in their pure form in surgical applications poses a challenge due to their suboptimal strength and stiffness or slight deviations from the elastic modulus of bone. This review describes how such observed drawbacks can be overcome with materials that are/can be doped into polymers (carbon fibers, other biocompatible polymers and nanotechnology products), thereby improving their mechanical and chemical properties and ultimately reducing the patient's immune response. Keywords: Biocompatible polymers, dental prosthesis, restoration material, biomedical application 951 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal A CURRENT DENTURE BASE MATERIALS: POLYETHERETHERKETONE (PEEK) Özet Gelişen teknoloji ile beraber günümüzde estetik restorasyonlara artan ilgi ile diş hekimliğinde yüksek seviyede estetik arayışına gidilmektedir. Bu durum gün geçtikçe metal alt yapılı protezlerin yerine metal içermeyen yeni restorasyon malzemelerini ön plana çıkarmaktadır. Özellikle estetik açıdan doğal diş yapısına benzerliği, biyouyumlu olması, fiziksel ve mekanik özelliklerinin iyi olması nedenleri ile polietereterketon (PEEK) protez kaide materyali olarak diş hekimliğinde tercih sebebi olmaktadır. PEEK materyali poliarileterketon (PAEK) ailesinin bir üyesidir ve bu özelliklerinin yanı sıra mekanik ve termal dayanıklılığı, sterilizasyon kolaylığı, ışınlara karşı dayanıklılığı, yorulma direnci, kullanıldığı restorasyonlarda bağlantı dayanıklılığının güçlü olması gibi özelliklerinden dolayı diş hekimliğinde geniş bir alanda kullanılmaktadır. İmplant materyali, ortodontik teller, CAD/CAM (Bilgisayar Destekli Tasarım/Bilgisayar Destekli Üretim) materyali, sabit protezlerde alt yapı, hareketli protezlerde hassas bağlantı parçası, kroşe ve obtüratör protez yapımında PEEK kullanımı yaygındır. Bu materyallerin biyouyumlu olması ve üstün mekanik özellikler göstermesi hasta özelinde implantların ve diğer özel cihazların hızlı 3D tasarımında prototiplenmesi için bu malzemeleri ideal hale getirmiştir. Yapılan çalışmalar bu malzemelerin ortopedi, ağız-çene-yüz ve kraniofasiyal cerrahi, kardiyovasküler ve kardiyotorasik uygulamalar, diş uygulamaları ve doku mühendisliği gibi daha birçok klinik ve biyomedikal uygulamalar için önemli uygulamaları olduğunu göstermektedir. Ancak bu malzemelerle çalışmalarda dikkat edilmesi gereken önemli başlıklar bulunmaktadır. Öncelikle PEEK’in konsantre nitrik asite ek olarak bazı halojen elementlere (klor ve brom gibi) maruziyeti iyonlaştırıcı radyasyon direncini ve diğer önemli özelliklerini bozmaktadır. İlaç dağıtımı, klinik ve cerrahi tıpta, diş hekimliğinde kullanım için geleneksel metalik bileşiklere alternatif istenen özelliklere rağmen PEEK gibi malzemelerin saf halde kullanımı optimal olmayan güç ve sertlik veya kemiğin elastik modülünden hafif sapmalar gibi özellikler gösterdiği için cerrahi uygulamalarda zorluklara neden olmaktadır. Bu derlemede gözlenen bu tür dezavantajların polimerlere katkılanan/katkılanabilecek materyallerle (karbon fiberler, diğer biyouyumlu polimerler ve nanoteknolojik ürünler) nasıl aşıldığı, mekanik özelliklerin ve kimyasal özelliklerinin iyileştirilmesi ve son olarak hasta bağışıklık sistemi tepkisinin nasıl azaltılabileceği açıklanmıştır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Biyouyumlu polimerler, diş protez, restorasyon malzemesi, biyomedikal uygulama 952 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Gelişen teknoloji ve endüstrideki hızlı değişim diş hekimliğinde kullanılan materyallerin de değişimine sebep olmuştur. Günümüzde tercih edilen protez materyaller için estetik özelliğinin yanı sıra kullanımda yüksek sıcaklık dayanımı (300 °C’yi aşan) ve kimyasal ve mekanik direncinin yüksek olması bakımından Poliarileterketon (PAEK) polimer ailesinin bir üyesi olan polietereterketon (PEEK) tercih edilmektedir (Chen et al., 2016).Mükemmel fiziksel özelliklere sahip bu organik polimerler üzerine yapılan araştırmalar 1960’lı yıllara dayanmaktadır (Hearle, 2001). Tarihçesi 1962 yılında Amerikalı bilim insanı Robert Bonner Polimer tarafından tanıtımının yapılması ile başlamış olan PEEK, ilk olarak 1978 yılında İngiliz bilim insanı tarafından polimer olarak geliştirilmiştir (Najeeb et al., 2016). 1980’li yıllardan itibaren ticari olarak endüstri, mühendislik ve askeri alanlarda kullanılmaya başlanmıştır (Mark et al., 1987). Elastikiyet modülünün kemiğe yakın olması, aşınma ve kırılma direncinin yüksek olması, cilalanabilir özelliği, şok absorbsiyonu ve metal restorasyonlara göre daha hafif bir materyal olması özellikleri sayesinde tıpta kullanımı özellikle travma ve ortopedi vakalarında son derece yaygın bir hal almış ve titanyum materyaliyle rekabet sürecine dahil olmuştur (Kurtz & Devine, 2007). Diş hekimliğinde metal altyapıyı gizlemek amacı ile metal alaşımlı kuronlar, köprüler ve hareketli protezlerde birçok katman içeren restorasyonlar yapılmaktaydı ancak metal alaşımların açık gri rengi tam olarak kompanse edilememekteydi (Najeeb et al., 2016). Bu nedenle metal altyapılı restorasyonlar zamanla yerini alternatif materyallere bırakmıştır. Özellikle estetik restorasyonlarda krom kobalt altyapılı protetik restorasyonlarla kıyaslandığında zirkonyumun yüksek maliyetli oluşu bilim insanlarını polimerler üstünde çalışmalar yapmaya itmiştir (Sereno et al., 2015).Teknolojik gelişmelerle konvansiyonel yöntem ile yapılan uygulamaların yerini PEEK ve PEKK materyalleri ile yapılan uygulamalar almaya başlamıştır. Firmaların da bu alandaki gelişimleriyle kuron ve köprü restorasyonların üretimi için freze makineleri geliştirilmiş ve yüksek performans polimer blokları üretilmiştir (Kewekordes et al., 2018).İnsan kemiğiyle benzer mekanik mukavemete ve elastik modüle sahip olması PEEK materyallere ilgiyi artırmaktadır. PAEK ailesinden olan PEEK’lerin bu özelliği metal bazlı implantlara uygun bir alternatif olmasını sağlamıştır. Üç boyutlu baskı yoluyla özel ve hızlı bir şekilde üretilebilme özellikleri dikkate alındığında biyomedikal ve malzeme mühendisliği alanlarına ek olarak medikal uygulamalarda PEEK ürünlerinin önemi artmakta ve bu alanda yapılacak olan çalışmalar önem arz edecektir (Sacks et al., 2024). Bu çalışma PEEK’in mekanik, fiziksel ve kimyasal özelliklerinin yanı sıra modern tıptaki çeşitli uygulamalarını özetlemektedir. Ayrıca PEEK uygulamalrında gözlenen dezavantajların 953 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal polimerlere katkılanan/katkılanabilecek materyallerle (karbon fiberler, diğer biyouyumlu polimerler ve nanoteknolojik ürünler) aşılabileceği, mekanik özelliklerin ve kimyasal özelliklerinin iyileştirilmesi de vurgulanmıştır. PEEK’in Genel Özellikleri Yüksek performanslı bir termoplastik polimer ailesinin üyesi olan polietereterketon (PEEK); yüksek mukavemet, aşınma ve yorulma direnci gibi özelliklerinden dolayı biyomedikal uygulamalar için ilgi görmektedir. Biyouyumluluğu ve üstün mekanik özellikleriyle son yıllarda dental uygulamalarda da kullanılmaktadır (Henriques et al., 2018). Şekil 1. PEEK’in kimyasal yapısı (Staniland et al., 1992) PEEK materyali birçok dental uygulamada abutmentler, implantlar, kroşeler, hareketli protezlerin alt yapıları ve sabit protezler dâhil alternatif materyal olarak kullanımı gün geçtikçe artmaktadır (Tekin et al., 2018). Şekil 2. Diş Hekimliğinde PEEK (Sarot et al., 2010) PEEK materyali yüksek ısıya karşı dirençlidir ve erime sıcaklığı 334 °C’dir. Ayrıca kendine özgü aromatik kimyasal yapısı nedeniyle tıbbi cihazları sterilize etmek için kullanılan gama ve elektron ışınları gibi bir çok sterilizasyon yöntemine uygundur. Termal özelliklerinden dolayı insan vücudunda stabil kalmaktadır (Tekin et al., 2018). Kimyasal olarak inert özelliktedir ve diğer materyallerle düşük reaksiyon gösterir ve birçok geleneksel çözeltilerde çözünmemektedir (Simsiriwong et al., 2015). Bu özelliklerinden dolayı metal içermeyen diş restorasyonlarında tercih edilmiştir ve metal alerjisine karşı da iyi bir alternatif olmaktadır 954 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal (Zoidis & Papathanasiou, 2016).PEEK çoğu dental uygulama için yeterli olan düşük bir yarı saydamlığa sahip olmasına rağmen diş hekimliğinde estetik gereklilikler için rezin materyaller ile kombine kullanılması önerilmektedir (Rosentritt et al., 2015). Bununla birlikte, opaklığı ve grimsi beyaz rengi, monolitik ve anatomik kontürlü restorasyonların üretiminde PEEK’in kullanımını sınırlandırmaktadır (Stawarczyk et al., 2013). Estetik görüntünün sağlanabilmesi için veneer kompozit rezinler kullanılmaktadır. Ancak PEEK’in mekanik ve kimyasal işlemlere olan direnci ve hidrofobik yapısından dolayı diş hekimliğindeki kullanımı kısıtlanmıştır (Adem et al., 2022). PEEK’in dental uygulamalarda etkin ve başarılı kullanımı için PEEK ve veneer kompozit rezinler arasındaki bağlantı dayanıklılığının sağlanmasına yönelik yöntemler geliştirilmelidir. PEEK ile beraber hem rezin simanların hem de kompozit rezinlerin diş hekimliğinde kullanılması için aralarındaki bağlanmanın biyomekanik kuvvetlere karşı dayanıklı olması gerekmektedir (Henriques et al., 2018). Bağlantı tipi kimyasal, (mikro) mekanik tutunma veya bunların bir birleşimi ile oluşturulabilir. Bu durum kullanılan malzemelerin bileşimine ve etkileşimine göre değişmektedir (Piwowarczyk et al., 2004).PEEK’in yüzey enerjisini değiştirmek ve hem rezin simanlar hem de kompozit rezinler ile olan bağlantısını geliştirmek için birçok teknik ve yüzey işlemleri üzerinde çalışmalar yapılmıştır. Araştırmalar herhangi bir yüzey işlemi yapılmayan inert PEEK yüzeyi ile rezin materyaller arasında bağlanmanın gerçekleşmediğini ortaya koymuştur. Bağlantının geliştirilmesi için ıslanabilirliğin ve yüzey alanının pürüzlendirilerek arttırılması kullanılan yöntemlerdendir. Asitle aşındırma, lazer, plazma teknikleri bunlardan bazılarıdır (Henriques et al., 2018). PEEK’in yüzey alanını modifiye etmek için %98 sülfürik asit (H2SO4) kullanımının gözenekli ve geçirgen bir yüzey oluşturduğu sonucuna varmıştır (Hallmann et al., 2012; Keul et al., 2014; Rosentritt et al., 2015). Bununla birlikte alüminyum oksit (Al2O3) ile kumlama, silika kaplama ve bunların kombine uygulanması PEEK yüzeyindeki pürüzlülükte artış sağlamıştır (Ates et al., 2018).Ultraviyole ışık (UV ) lazer uygulaması, polimer yüzeylerin temizlenmesi ve fonksiyonellik kazanması için kullanılan başka bir yöntemdir (Sham et al., 2009). Literatürde, %98 sülfürik asit ile pürüzlendirme (Hallmann et al., 2012; Keul et al., 2014; Rosentritt et al., 2015) Al2O3 ile kumlama (Fokas et al., 2019), adhesive uygulaması (Schmidlin et al., 2010), UV ışığa maruz bırakma (Shi et al., 2017) gibi işlemlerin PEEK’in bağlantı dayanımını artırdığı ile ilgili çalışmalar yer almaktadır. Ancak bu yöntemlerin birbirleriyle kombinasyonlu şekilde uygulandığı sınırlı sayıda çalışma vardır. Literatürde, UV ışık uygulamasından sonra bağlantı dayanımının ölçüldüğü sadece bir araştırma bulunmaktadır (Okawa et al., 2020). 955 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal PEEK’in Üretim Yöntemleri Laboratuvarlarda yüksek performans polimerleri kullanılarak protetik altyapı ve restorasyonlar üretmek için enjeksiyon kalıplama, bilgisayar destekli tasarım ve bilgisayar destekli üretim (CAD/CAM) ve 3 boyutlu yazıcı olmak üzere üç yöntem mevcuttur (Han et al., 2019). CAD/CAM ile Üretim Yöntemi CAD-CAM, bilgisayar destekli üretim/tasarım manasına gelmektedir (Palin & Burke, 2005). Üretim yolu CAD/CAM teknolojisidir. CAD/CAM sistemleri daha kısa sürede daha yüksek kalitede üretim yapılmasına olanak tanımaktadır. CAD/CAM sistemleri üç bileşenden oluşmaktadır:1. Dijital tarayıcı: Dental CAD/CAM sistemlerinin en önemli komponentlerinden biridir. Ağız içinde veya ağız dışında modellerden, prepare edilen dişlerin yapıların ve karşıt dişlerin üç boyutlu bilgisini toplayarak elde ettiği geometriyi bilgisayar tarafından işlenebilecek dijital verilere dönüştüren bir dijitalleştirme aracı/tarayıcı sistemidir. Elde edilen görüntülerin verileri, restorasyonların hasta başında üretiminde veya laboratuvara transferinde kullanılır (Beuer et al., 2009). Bu işlem esnasında ağız içi tarama kalitesini arttırmak için oksit tozu püskürtülmektedir. (Sakaguchi & Powers, 2011).2. Tasarım yazılımı: Verileri işleyen ve uygulamaya bağlı olarak, üretilecek ürün için bir veri seti üreten yazılım sistemidir. Tarama yöntemiyle elde edilen verinin görselleştirilmesi, dental restorasyonun üç boyutlu tasarımının ve planlamasının yapılabilmesi için yazılım programlarını kullanan bir bilgisayar birimidir (Fasbinder, 2012). Hareketli ve sabit protezler, veneer tasarımları ve implant cerrahisinde kullanılan stentler gibi çeşitli dental restorasyonların tasarımı yapılabilir (Beuer et al., 2009; Strub et al., 2006).3. Verileri istenilen restorasyona dönüştüren bir üretim teknolojisi CAD yazılımıyla elde edilen veriler, CAM süreci için freze cihazına aktarılır (Beuer et al., 2009). Seramik, kompozit ve metal gibi çeşitli prefabrike bloklar farklı eksenlerde freze edilerek istenilen restorasyon elde edilir (Sakaguchi & Powers, 2011).Bu üretim yolu, polimerin yeniden eritilmesi için enjeksiyon kalıplama yöntemindeki tüm riskleri ortadan kaldırır. Malzeme özellikleri stabil kalır ve altyapı üretimi, dijital bir iş akışı içerisinde gerçekleşeceği için kesinliğin artmasıyla beraber tekrarlanabilirlikten de yararlanılır. PAEK malzemeleri, frezlerde daha az aşınmaya neden olmalarıyla birlikte daha hızlı frezeleme süreleri olduğundan ve frezelemek için gerekli olan ekipmanının metal altyapıları frezelemek için kullanılan makineler kadar pahalı olmadığından, metal altyapıların verimliliklerini daha da artırır (Han et al., 2019). 956 frezelenmesine kıyasla CAD/CAM VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 3. CAD/CAM ile PEEK üretimi (Tipton, 2015) Enjeksiyon Kalıplama Yöntemi Endüstriyel enjeksiyon kalıplama makineleri; polimeri, diş laboratuvarlarında bulunan örneğin 10 bar basınç ile çalışan klasik tezgah üstü presleme makineleriyle kıyaslandığında çok daha yüksek basınç (1000 bar) ve hız altında işler. PAEK'in küçük ölçekli enjeksiyon kalıplaması, tasarım sınırlamaları nedeniyle zor bir işlemdir. Ayrıca PAEK'lerin yeniden eritilmesi, altyapı doğru bir şekilde soğutulmamış ve yeniden kristalleştirilmemişse, öngörülebilir olmayan; renk, kırılganlık ve esneklik gibi mekanik ve fiziksel özelliklerin bozulmasına sebep olabilir. Ayrıca, ekipmanın hatalı kullanıldığı ya da çok iyi kontrol edilemediği durumlarda, PAEK malzemelerinin yeniden eritilmesi de fenol oluşumuyla beraber polimerin bozulmasına yol açabilir. Bu nedenle, bu malzemelerin eritilerek işlemesi yalnızca yetkili bir laboratuvar tarafından ve tedarikçi tarafından önerilen ekipman kullanılarak yapılmalıdır (Tipton, 2015). Şekil 4. Enjeksiyon kalıplama yöntemiyle PEEK üretimi (Türkkal) Üç Boyutlu (3D) Yazıcı ile Üretim Yöntemi Düşük maliyet, kullanım kolaylığı, malzeme bozulması ve kontaminasyonunun minimuma indiği bir yöntem olan 3 boyutlu yazıcılar ile üretim son yıllarda PEEK polimer için de sıklıkla kullanılmaya başlanmıştır (Han et al., 2019). PEEK’in Kullanım Alanları Mekanik özelliklerinden dolayı PEEK, ortodontik teller, implant materyali, CAD/CAM materyali, dayanak materyali olarak ve protetik alanlarda kullanılmaktadır (Kaleli et al., 2018). 957 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal İmplant Materyali PEEK implant materyali olarak, bruksizm veya metallere karşı alerjik reaksiyonları olan hastalar için bir alternatif olarak ortaya çıkmıştır (Elawadly et al., 2017). Üstün mekanik özellikleri, biyouyumluluğu ve kemik benzeri sertliğe sahip yapısı ile ortopedik implant uygulamaları için umut verici bir biyomateryal haline gelmiştir (Mishra & Chowdhary, 2019). Bununla birlikte, PEEK tarafından üretilen dental implantlar, ortopedik implantlarla karşılaştırıldığında klinik kullanımda henüz yaygın değildir (Najeeb et al., 2016; Wang et al., 2019). Anguiano-Sanchez ve arkadaşlarının yaptığı bir çalışmada, PEEK malzemesinin düşük stres koruyucu etkilerinin implant ömrünü uzatmak için faydalı olduğunu gösterilmiştir (Anguiano-Sanchez et al., 2016).PEEK, son zamanlarda implant dayanak materyali olarak da kullanılmaya başlanmıştır (Sacks et al., 2024). Hahnel ve arkadaşlarının (2015), titanyum, zirkonyum ve PEEK implant dayanak materyallerinde biyofilm oluşumunu analiz ettikleri çalışmalarında; PEEK’in, titanyum ve zirkonyumdan üretilen geleneksel dayanak materyallerine göre yüzeyinde daha düşük biyofilm oluşumuna ve olumlu özelliklere sahip bir dayanak materyali olduğu bulunmuştur (Hahnel et al., 2015). Geçmiş çalışmalarda, termomekanik yaşlandırmanın ardından, güçlendirilmiş PEEK dayanaklar, zirkonya dayanaklara benzer kırılma direnci sergilemiştir (Atsü et al., 2019).Titanyumla güçlendirilmiş PEEK, mükemmel biyouyumluluğu göz önüne alındığında geleneksel dayanaklara etkili bir alternatif olmakla birlikte kemik yüksekliğini koruyabilir. PEEK Ortodontik Teller Hastaların estetik taleplerinin gün geçtikçe artması nedeniyle metalik olmayan ortodontik teller daha popüler hale gelmektedir. PEEK, metal alaşımlarına mükemmel bir alternatif olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Dental uygulamalar için PEEK, ağız ortamında korozyon, metal iyonlarının salınması, metal alerjileri ve estetik olmayan görünüm gibi metal alaşımlarının bazı temel eksikliklerini giderir (Shirakawa et al., 2018).PEEK tellerin yük-eğilme ve sürtünme özelliklerini değerlendirdiği bir çalışmada, PEEK tellerin ortodontik apareyler olarak kullanıma uygun olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır (Tada et al., 2017). Yük-eğilme eğrileri, test edilen teller arasında benzerlikler göstermiş bununla beraber, tüm malzemelerin kalıcı deformasyonu ve statik sürtünmesi arasındaki farklar önemsiz bulunmuştur.PEEK, nikel-titanyum (Ni-Ti) teller üzerinde korozyon direncini arttırmak ve mekanik özellikleri iyileştirmek için kaplama materyali olarak kullanılabilir (Rokaya et al., 2018). Bununla birlikte, uzun süreli oral kullanım, PEEK kaplamanın stabilitesinde bozulmaya neden olabilir (da Silva et al., 2013). 958 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal PEEK’in Protetik Kullanımı PEEK polimerinin, hareketli ve sabit protezlerde kullanımının yanı sıra implant destekli sabit ve hareketli bölümlü protezlerde kullanımı da giderek artmaktadır. Bu durum, elastik modülünün kemik ve dişe yakın olması, şok absorbe etme özelliği, üstün biyouyumluluğu, yüksek termal ve kimyasal direnci ve mekanik özelliklerinin iyi olması gibi avantajlarından kaynaklanmaktadır (Türksayar & Atsü, 2021). PEEK’in Hareketli Bölümlü Protezlerde Kullanımı Günümüzde diş eksikliği olan hastalar, implant restorasyonlarını seçme eğilimindedir. Bununla birlikte, sistemik durum, mevcut anatomik yapı, psikolojik veya finansal nedenlerle implant için uygun aday olmayan birçok hasta hala vardır. Bu hastalar, kaybedilen dişlerin restorasyonu için konservatif ve ucuz bir yaklaşım olan hareketli bölümlü protezleri (HBP) tercih ederler (Saeed et al., 2020). Harb ve arkadaşları (2019), Kennedy Sınıf I bölümlü protezin PEEK altyapısının CAD/CAM frezeleme teknolojisiyle üretilmesi ile ilgili klinik bir rapor yayınlamıştır (Harb et al., 2019). CAD/CAM veya geleneksel kayıp mum tekniği kullanılarak, PEEK ile üretilen protez altyapısı, geleneksel malzemelere alerjisi olan veya tat duyusu daha hassas olan hastalar için Co-Cr altyapının yerini alabilir (Zoidis & Papathanasiou, 2016). PEEK gibi elastik bir materyal, dayanak dişlerde devrilme kuvveti ve gerilimi azaltabileceğinden, dayanak dişlerin periodontal sağlığına faydalı olduğu gösterilmiştir (Negm et al., 2019). Bir başka klinik çalışma, PEEK altyapılar için ağız sağlığı ile ilgili yaşam kalitesi, hasta memnuniyeti ve periodontal sağlık gibi durumlar Co-Cr altyapılar ile karşılaştırıldığında benzer sonuçlar bulmuştur (Ali et al., 2020).Tannous ve arkadaşları (2012), PEEK ile üretilen kroşelerinin Co-Cr kroşelerden daha düşük retansiyon sergilediğini bulmuştur (Tannous et al., 2012). Ayrıca çıkarma esnasında undercut bölgesinde oluşan stresin PEEK’in dayanımından daha yüksek olması, kroşeler için uygun bir materyal olmadığı sonucunu ortaya koymuştur (Tribst et al., 2020). PEEK’in Sınırlılığı PEEK üstünde uzun dönem klinik takiplerin yetersiz olması ile birlikte yapılan araştırma ve geliştirme çalışmalarının sunduğu bazı bilgiler şu şekildedir: • PEEK artan klinik ilgisine rağmen, zayıf entegrasyonu ve biyolojik inertliğinden dolayı çevre kemik dokulara girmesi sorun olmaktadır. Bu özellikle bakteri enfeksiyonlu operasyon bölgelerinde yapılan PEEK implantlar uygulamaları için geçerlidir. Dolayısı ile enfeksiyon direncini ve osseintegrasyonu artırmak için daha fazla çalışmaya ihtiyaç vardır. 959 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal • PEEK implantların alternatif olarak kullanılması için klinik öncesi ve klinik vakalarda tatmin edici osseintegrasyon sonuçları göstermesi gereklidir • Düşük su emme kapasitesi, iyi sürtünme direnci ve kemiğe yakın mukavemet gücünden dolayı tercih edilen PEEK ‘e uzun vadeli oral maruz kalma sonucu zamanla PEEK kaplamaların stabilitesinde bozulmalar meydana geldiği gözlenmiştir. Bu nedenle PEEK kaplama stabilitesini değerlendirmek için yeterli klinik çalışmaya ihtiyaç vardır. Özellikle PEEK ortodontik telleri ile ilgili pral kavitedeki uzun vadeli maruz kalımı, yük dayanımı, statikkarakteristik sürtünmesi gibi kullanıma bağlı durum değerlendirici ve diş fırçalamadan, gıda renklenmeleri ve bu renklenmenin çıkarımı, yemek yeme alışkanlıklarından etkilenmesi ile ilgili yeterli klinik çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır. • Tannous ve arkadaşları PEEK kroşeler ile kobalt-krom kroşeleri karşılaştırmış ve PEEK kroşelerin yeterli retansiyonu göstermediğini öne sürmüştür. Bu nedenle klinik kullanımda PEEK kroşelerin retansiyon kuvvetinin değerlendirilmesi ile ilgili vaka analizlerine ihtiyaç vardır. İleri PEEK Çalışmalarına Yönelik Öneriler PEEK, diş hekimliğinde metal alaşımlara alternatif yüksek performans polimer materyal olarak görülmektedir. Dayanıklılığı, kırılma direnci, dentine ve kemiğe yakın elastikiyet modülü, şok absorbsiyon yeteneği ve biyouyumluluğu, korozyon direnci sayesinde diş hekimliğinde yaygın kullanım alanına sahip olmuştur. Ayrıca düşük ağırlığı ve estetiği kabul edilebilir oranda sağlayabildiği için kullanımı metallere oranla giderek artmaktadır. Özellikle protetik tedavide alt yapı materyali olarak kullanılmakla birlikte implanttoloji, ortodonti, endodonti, restoratif restorasyonlar gibi çeşitli diş hekimliği alanlarında da kullanılmaktadır. CAD-CAM teknoloji ile kullanılması sayesinde hızlı, kolay ve daha az hatalı restorasyonlar üretilebilmektedir. PEEK üstünde uzun dönem klinik çalışmaların yetersiz olmasından dolayı polimerlerin, diş hekimliğinde kullanımını kısıtlamaktadır.. Bu nedenle daha fazla vaka çalışmasına, randomize klinik çalışmalara ve in vitro çalışmalara ihtiyaç olduğu görülmektedir. PEEK polimeri gelecek vadetse de polimer esaslı materyallerin diş hekimliği ve protetik tedavide kullanımı için zamana ihtiyaç olduğu anlaşılmaktadır. Sonuç PEEK mekanik, fiziksel ve kimyasal özelliklerinin yanı sıra modern tıptaki çeşitli uygulamaları yönüyle büyük umut vaat etmektedir. Ortopedi uygulamalarında omurga füzyonu, disk artroplastisi, laminektomi, travma ve onkolojik cerrahi, eklem artroplastisi ve artroskopik cerrahi alanlarında popüler bir seçimdir. Ayrıca ağız-çene-yüz ve kraniyofasiyal cerrahide 960 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yörünge ve mandibular rekonstrüksiyonları, temporomandibular eklem değişimi ve kraniyoplasti uygulamalarında komplikasyon ve hasta memnuniyeti açısından olumlu rapor edilmiştir. Kardiyovasküler ve kardiyotorasik uygulamalar açısından değerlendirildiğinde ise kalp damar cerrahisine yönelik implantlar, kalp kapak protezleri ve yaprakçık kalp kapakçıkları oluşturmada, kemik fiksasyon etkinliği ve uygulama kolaylığı yönüyle PEEK uygulamaları önerilmektedir. Ameliyat sonrası antibiyotik verilmesi, antimikrobiyal uygulamalar ve kansere karşı ilaç dağıtımı sistemlerinde etkili bir şekilde kullanılmak üzere ilaç yüklü nanakapsül, nanopartikül veya misel sistemleri ile katkılanacak PEEK materyalleri geliştirilebilir. 961 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal HOT-PRESS COATING OF NI-HARD 4 ALLOY ON PURE IRON Abstract Ni-Hard 4 is well-known among the Ni-Hard alloys for its superior mechanical and electrochemical properties, mostly attributed to its higher chromium (Cr) and nickel (Ni) composition. Ni-Hard 4 alloy, also known as high-Cr white cast iron, is widely selected in many application areas, such as the coating of parts subject to wear and corrosion. In this work, unlike conventional coating methods, Ni-Hard 4 coating was applied on pure iron by pressure assisted sintering and its influence on surface features was examined. Sintering and coating processes were carried out simultaneously at 950 °C for 30 minutes. Characterization processes started with density measurement. With the influence of the production method, a high relative density of 97% was obtained in the Ni-Hard 4 alloy. Furthermore, the microstructural investigation showed strong bond formation between the substrate and the coating. In addition, Ni-Hard 4 coating led to an increase in hardness and wear properties of substrate. As a consequence of the production of Ni-Hard 4 coatings by hot pressing, improved surface properties were obtained. In this regard, the surface properties of pure iron were improved by Ni-Hard 4 coating and high performance coating was improved.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction Developing new methods and heat treatments for cast iron alloys allows new materials to show better mechanical properties and greater resistance to corrosion in various aggressive industrial environments (Abd El-Aziz et al., 2015; Banadkouki et al., 2018). High-alloyed cast irons are an important group of materials with an alloy content above 4%. High alloyed cast irons (450850 HB) have superior wear, heat and corrosion resistance properties compared to other unalloyed or low alloyed cast irons. The main alloying elements used in high-alloy cast irons are nickel, chromium, molybdenum, copper and vanadium (Wei & Xu, 2019; Barutcuoglu et al., 2024). These materials are called Ni-Hard, Cr-Hard, etc. according to their alloy content. Ni-Hard is the name of highly alloyed white cast iron with very high wear resistance (Yücel & Günay, 2013). Among the Ni-hard alloys, Ni-Hard 4 is known as the hardest and most corrosion resistant alloy due to its high Cr and Ni content. Ni-Hard 4 alloy, also known as high Cr white cast iron, is frequently preferred in various application areas, such as mechanical parts exposed to wear and parts that will work in corrosive environments. In this alloy, depending on their chemical composition, M23C6, M7C3, M6C, and M3C type carbides can be seen in the microstructure (Çöl et al., 2016; Ruangchai et al., 2021). These carbides increase the hardness and wear resistance of the structure, enabling the material to be used as coatings in industry to improve the performance and life of cutting and drilling tools. Current coating technologies include thin film PVD and CVD coating techniques and thick coating types such as thermal spray and laser coating techniques (Sathish et al., 2023). Although the coating thickness to be applied varies according to the need, each method has its own advantages and disadvantages. Research for the development of coating methods continues. At this point in pressure-assisted sintering methods, applying pressure simultaneously with temperature to the powder compound during sintering creates the driving force for high density and leads to an increase in density kinetics. The external pressure increases the densification rate, allowing material production at lower sintering temperatures and times (Yamanoglu, 2019). However, coatings of Ni-hard alloys can be used as final parts after sintering. Such advantages make the application of industrial coatings by hot pressing attractive. In light of all this information, in this study, NiHard 4 alloy was coated on pure Fe by pressure-assisted sintering technique. The surface properties of the coating and substrate materials were measured, and the applicability of the coating technique was evaluated. 970 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Materials and Methods In the study, pure Fe (10 µm) powder produced by chemical methods was used as the substrate, and Ni-Hard 4 alloy powder produced by gas atomization was used as the coating. The chemical composition of Ni-Hard 4 powder is also given in Table 1. The coating powders were produced using the gas atomization device in the Metallurgical and Materials Engineering Department of Kocaeli University. In our previous study (Muratal et al., 2024), we detailed the production and powder characterization of Ni-Hard 4 alloy powders. Table 1. Chemical composition of Ni-Hard 4 alloys Elements C Si Mn S Amounts 3.0- 0.3- 0.3- ≤ (wt. %) 3.6 0.5 0.7 0.15 P Ni Cr Mo Fe 7-11 ≤ 1.5 Rest 3.3≤ 0.3 4.8 First, the base powder was laid in the graphite die, and then the coating powders were added to the die. The prepared die was placed in a DIEX VS50 brand hot press device. The coating process was carried out at 950 °C for 30 minutes under a constant pressure of 50 MPa. In addition, the production chamber was kept under vacuum with a pressure of 10-4 mbar to avoid particle oxidation. Metallographic processing steps were performed before microstructural characterization. Firstly, the sample was sectioned using a METKON brand Microcut 150 precision cutting device. Then the cross-section surface was prepared by sanding and polishing. Finally, the samples were etched in 40 ml HCl and 20 ml HNO3 solution at 40°C. Optical microscope images were taken using an OLYMPUS BX41M-LED microscope. A JEOL JSM 6060 scanning electron microscope was used for SEM images. Hardness measurements were performed using a Zwick brand Roell ZHV model Vickers hardness tester with a 0.5 kgf loading for 10 s. A ball disc type TURKYUS POD/HT/WT brand abrasion device was used for the dry sliding wear test performed to evaluate the tribological properties of the samples. The wear tests were carried out at a 500 m distance, 20 N load, and 300 rpm rotational speed at room temperature using Si3N4 balls. Results and Discussion Microstructural Characterization Figure 1(a) shows the presence of tiny holes in both the Ni-Hard coating and the pure iron substrate. The pores were mostly localized at the interfaces between particles and exhibited a spherical morphology. Thus, these factors are not anticipated to provide significant drawbacks in terms of the material's strength. In Figure 1(b), the etched interfacial picture shows the production of pearlite in the interfacial area due to carbon diffusion. As it moved away from 971 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal the coating area, the ferrite phase became the dominant component in the microstructure. The optical images showed the presence of martensitic phase and the production of hard coarse M7C3 type carbide in the coating area. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) image shown in Figure 1(c) reveals the presence of diffusion in the interfacial area between the substrate and the Ni-Hard coating. Consequently, carbon diffusion led to forming a pearlitic structure in the interfacial area, which was distinct from the matrix. carbon diffusion unlike the matrix. Figure 1. Microstructure images of the sample: (a) polished, (b) etched, (c) SEM image Hardness Results The interface Vickers hardness result of the sample obtained in the study is given in Figure 2. As can be observed, hardness testing was carried out in 3 separate regions: the substrate, the interfacial area and the coating. When results are evaluated, it is discovered that the hardness value of Ni-Hard 4 coating is higher than pure iron. The hardness increase is related to the unique microstructure of high-alloy cast iron. The microstructure is generally formed of three parts and two supporting elements. The three ingredients are Fe, C and a significant amount of Cr. Fe is the matrix element and forms the martensite phase with C, strengthening the material. The Cr and C presence increases the hardness and wear resistance of the structure by producing 972 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal M7C3 carbides. However, the size of these carbides should be kept under control in case of coarsening. Coarse-grained carbides adversely affect the impact strength of the structure. For this reason, Ni and Mo reinforcements in the alloy developed fine-grained carbides, resulting in high hardness and high impact strength. Therefore, the formation of M7C3 carbide in Ni-Hard 4 coating and its uniform distribution in the structure led to a substantial hardness increase compared to the base material. Figure 2. Vickers hardness test results from surface to centre Wear Results The dry wear test results applied to the pure iron substrate and Ni-Hard 4 coating are given in Figure 3 in terms of wear rate. As can be observed, the Ni-Hard 4 alloy showed better wear resistance than pure iron. The increased wear performance was due to the significant hardness differences between the substrate and the coating. As a result of the improved hardness, the coating experienced a lower wear rate. The wear rate of Ni-Hard coating was measured at 0.185 mm3m-1.10-3 and that of pure iron at 0.803 mm3m-1.10-3. On the other hand, microstructural differences in the substrate and coating caused the two regions to show different wear mechanisms. The Ni-Hard 4 alloy exhibited high abrasive wear with carbides, which increase hardness. 973 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Figure 3. Wear rate values of materials High plastic deformation zones were identified on the worn surface of pure iron. Furthermore, the wear of pure iron began with adhesive signs, followed by severe oxide growth due to friction and temperature. The oxide layers produced under load fractured and left abrasive markings in the system. This situation resulted in massive material losses. On the other hand, Figure 4 shows the friction coefficient values obtained as a result of the wear test. As can be observed, the coefficient of friction of the Ni-Hard 4 alloy was lower than that of pure iron. The low coefficient of friction could be shown as one of several factors leading to reduced material loss in the coating.The strong carbide structure prevented the abrasive tip from being embedded in the matrix, and reducing the contact area led to a reduction in the friction coefficient. Figure 4. Friction coefficient graph of the materials 974 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Conclusion Powder metallurgical coatings are a solution against system responses like abrasion and corrosion, which negatively influence industry sustainability and raise company expenses. They are increasingly preferred because of their easy adaptability, wide range of materials, and application regions. This work aims to coat Ni-Hard 4 alloy, which stands out with its strong wear resistance and excellent corrosion resistance in its own material family, on iron using pressure-assisted sintering. This study was motivated by the limited research on the application of the hot press technique to a coating strategy. When the results were examined, superior wear performance was noticed with the Ni-Hard 4 alloy coating due to the enhanced hardness compared to pure iron. Furthermore, it was determined that there was a strong connection between the coating and the basic material. As a result, the findings obtained with pressureassisted sintering demonstrated that this method can be an alternative to common coating procedures used in industry. Thanks and Information Note The production of the powders used in this study and the coating of these powders on the substrates by powder metallurgy were realized with the support of the Kocaeli University Scientific Research Projects Unit (Project No: FBA-2021-2629). 975 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal FROM TRADITIONAL TO SMART: MANAGING CHANGE IN CITIES Abstract Smart cities offer significant opportunities for sustainability, efficiency and quality of life through the integration of information and communication technologies. This is achieved through the development and transformation of infrastructure and transportation, energy management, information and communication technologies, public services, environmental sustainability, social participation and data analytics and management. As this transformation process is complex and multidimensional, effective change management is required. This study examines the challenges, opportunities and change management strategies for the transition from traditional cities to smart cities. First, the definition, main characteristics and components of smart cities are explained. These components include infrastructure and transportation, energy management, public services, environmental sustainability, ICT, civic engagement and data analytics. Then, issues such as technological infrastructure, data management and security, which are important for the digital transformation of cities, are discussed. The impacts and opportunities of smart cities in areas such as sustainability, energy management, citizen engagement and public services are also discussed. Effective communication, cooperation and leadership between local governments, stakeholders and citizens play an important role in this change process. Change management strategies require effective use of resources and an approach based on the principle of sustainability. An effective change management strategy for the future of smart cities requires an approach that takes into account technological, social and institutional dimensions and is based on the principle of sustainability. In conclusion, this study provides a framework for understanding the challenges and success factors in the transformation of cities from traditional to smart.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction According to various definitions, change is a process that refers to the transition from one structure to another structure, which has no orientation and can take place in different directions. This process can occur suddenly or be initiated by people in a planned or unplanned manner. While the results of change can have positive effects when it occurs in the desired direction, negative results may occur when it occurs in an undesired way. In other words, change refers to a process of activities carried out to ensure that a situation is transformed into a new structure by differentiating over time. This process can take place in a planned or unplanned manner and can have positive or negative consequences (Helvacı, 2015).Today, organizations and formations are faced with the necessity of taking into account the changes that occur in order to achieve their goals. Because any change in environmental conditions directly affects the activities of organizations and forces them to change. For this reason, three main problems affecting change are emphasized meticulously: problems arising from the competitive market structure, problems arising from the workforce and problems arising from the social environment (Güçlü & Şehitoğlu, 2006).Smart cities are another structure affected by changes in the social and social environment. Smart cities are formations created mainly for data collection using various electronic methods and sensors in urban areas. This data collection process aims to utilize resources more efficiently and continuously improve the quality of services and operations. Data is collected from sources such as city dwellers, buildings, infrastructure and other amenities, and through the analysis of the collected data, it is used for purposes such as traffic and transportation systems, energy generation and distribution systems, public services, water supply, treatment and distribution systems, waste management, recycling and disposal, security and crime detection, monitoring and management of public spaces.Smart cities connect information technologies and various physical devices connected to the Internet of Things to improve the efficiency of services and operations and to interact with city residents. In this way, smart cities are able to dynamically monitor the state of the city by interacting with both city infrastructure and residents. The information obtained improves service quality, performance and interactivity, while at the same time reducing costs and resource consumption. In the following sections of the study, the concept of change and types of change, the aims and benefits of change, change management and strategies are examined, followed by information on smart cities, their characteristics and framework. Finally, the challenges faced with smart cities from a change management perspective are examined. 979 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal The Concept and Types of Change Change is a concept in which the economic, social, cultural and political factors interacted with in existential processes are constantly changing along with the external environment, competitors and customer base. Capturing change is therefore a difficult challenge. Organizations have to change continuously to compete with the external environment, time and competitors (Tokat, 2012). Change refers to the process of moving an entity or situation from one level to another. The change process of organizations takes place through differentiation at individual and organizational level, production and implementation of innovative ideas (Koçel, 2015; Erdoğan, 2015). Change involves changes in the internal dynamics of the organization, business processes, structural values, authorities and responsibilities, production techniques, environmental regulations, competition policies and managerial strategies (Sabuncuoğlu & Tüz, 2016).Organizations evaluate over time and space to decide whether change is necessary. External causes include political factors, technology, competitors, customers, financial conditions, economic conditions, social conditions, natural conditions, public opinion and suppliers. Internal causes, on the other hand, are factors internal to the organization and include factors that force the organization to change, such as organizational inefficiencies, downsizing policy, change in organizational values, alternative working methods, change of senior managers, growth policy and mergers (Sabuncuoğlu & Tüz, 2016). Identifying and analyzing these factors helps organizations develop strategies to implement change and ensures successful management of change.With the increasing demand for change, organizations have started to implement various types of change. These types of change are divided into various categories such as continuous-root, planned-unplanned, pre-emptive-reactive, large-scale-small-scale, active-passive, individual, group and organizational change. Continuous change is a process of adaptation, restructuring and experimentation that organizations use to adapt to environmental conditions. Fundamental change is a type in which fundamental and in-depth changes take place in the structure or objectives of the organization. Individual change refers to changes in an individual's thinking and behavior, while group change refers to changes in the structure and relationships within a group. Institutional change refers to changes in behaviors, structures, procedures or outputs of certain units within an organization (Helvacı, 2015). Planned change is a type of change in which the change process is planned and implemented in advance, while in unplanned change, the purpose and stages of change are not determined in advance. While pre-emptive change enables the organization to anticipate and prepare for environmental changes, reactive change is a type of change that occurs by reacting to environmental conditions 980 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal when they occur. While large-scale change affects the overall structure of the organization, small-scale change refers to changes related to a specific issue. In active change, the organization actively changes, while in passive change, it accepts change within itself to adapt to the environment (Koçel, 2015). Aims and Benefits of Change The main objective of change is to increase efficiency by combining the requirements of the work and the qualifications of the people doing the work, and to achieve more output using fewer resources. Thus, increasing efficiency is also an important goal of change. In addition, change also has goals such as increasing motivation, preparing for the future, developing trust and cooperation, finding solutions to problems, and improving communication (Sabuncuoğlu & Tüz, 2016). The rapid development and change in technology reveals the necessity for organizations to keep pace with change and follow technological innovations. In this context, change is directed towards the goal of organizations to provide innovation, and in certain cases, organizations may have goals that are compatible with their long-term plans and programs. In such cases, the purpose of change is to create a structure that makes it easier for organizations to enter new areas to achieve these goals (Tokat, 2012).While it is known that change is generally aimed at achieving these goals, there are also goals that prioritize human resources. Objectives such as developing the ability to establish empathy and humanistic relationships, increasing organizational knowledge and work performance, building mutual trust and support, developing behaviors that will ensure open communication, cooperation and independence, and gaining the ability to understand group work and group behavior reflect the human-oriented dimension of change (Tokat, 2012). These objectives focus on the development and effective use of human resources in organizations, thus aiming to improve the performance of employees by increasing their motivation.For organizations, change is both a necessity and an effective process that ensures the continuity and development of the organization. Beyond being a technical process, change also requires a change in mindset. New approaches should be adopted to solve problems instead of acting with old mindsets. In addition, change not only brings solutions to current problems, but also requires being prepared for potential problems that may be encountered in the future. Change supports the growth and development of organizations as well as ensuring the continuation of their activities. In addition, change shapes the future by creating a vision for the organization and provides many positive results and benefits (Güçlü & Şehitoğlu, 2006). 981 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Positive outcomes of change include creating excitement and vitality in the organization, enabling employees to focus, providing new opportunities, developing and satisfying employees. Groups formed with change add dynamism to the organization and ensure that routine activities are reviewed and organized (Erdoğan, 2015). However, if change is handled incorrectly, it can lead to negative consequences such as the risk of not achieving goals, increased costs, lost benefits, decreased motivation and negative attitudes of employees (Helvacı, 2015). Therefore, the change process should be managed carefully and strategies should be determined in accordance with the needs and priorities of the organization. Change Management and Strategies The fact that the environment is in a continuous process of change obliges organizations to change, whether they want to or not. Organizations that cannot adapt to change may lose their ability to compete and may even cease to exist. Therefore, organizations should be able to successfully manage change and exhibit a flexible attitude towards change.In order to manage change successfully, it is important to pay attention to the following factors. Creating a sense of urgency, building a strong guiding coalition, creating a vision, sharing the vision, empowering others to bring the vision to life, planning and creating short-term gains, consolidating progress and creating further change, institutionalizing new approaches play an important role in change management (Kotter, 1995).Change management involves a five-stage process. These stages are examining the factors that require change, diagnosing the change, creating a change program, implementation, and monitoring and evaluating the change. Effective use of factors such as leadership, communication, participation and training ensures the success of the change management process. In addition, dealing with resistance to change, increasing employee motivation and continuous improvement of the process are also important elements (Erdoğan, 2015).Different strategies are used for change management (Sabuncuoğlu & Tüz, 2016): Among these strategies are empirical-logical strategies. According to this strategy, people can be directed to change by persuading them with objective information. It is important for those who want to implement change to first convince the people who will be affected and benefit from the change about the advantages of change. By providing unbiased and solid information, people are made to understand the opportunities and improvements that change will bring. Use of force-coercion strategies are also an effective approach to change management. In this strategy, change is enforced through the use of political or economic sanctions and rules. While power strategies require people to be coerced if they do not dare to change, coercion strategies guide people to change through the incentives of power, law, reward 982 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal and punishment. These strategies aim to get individuals to respond to change out of fear of punishment or desire for reward rather than consent to change. Prescriptive-retraining strategies aim to support change by observing whether change occurs in behaviors, norms, relationships and skills. In this strategy, values and assumptions are clarified and based on participation. Power sharing is important to build consensus for change and foster collaboration. Prescriptiveretraining strategies take more time but allow for more internalization. In these strategies, individuals are encouraged to understand, accept and personally embrace change. In this way, different strategies for change management are used, aiming at effective management and acceptance of change. The choice of strategies may vary depending on the nature of the change, its objectives and the characteristics of the organization or community. What is important is that the strategies are carefully planned and implemented so that the change is successful and lasting. Smart Cities There are many different definitions of smart cities in the literature (Partigöç, 2023). Factors used to define smart cities include the application of various electronic and digital technologies, transforming life and work environments within the city through the use of ICTs, integrating ICT applications into government and public systems, and developing innovations and knowledge regionally through applications that bring ICTs and people together (Deakin, 2013). Different researchers have defined smart cities as a process of researching and identifying smart solutions to improve the quality of services provided to citizens, a city that provides economic growth and high quality of life in a sustainable way, and systems that support city development and improve urban services using communication technologies (Caragliu et al., 2011; Law & Lynch, 2019).For a better understanding of the smart city concept, it is important to identify its basic components. Technology factors consist of physical infrastructure, smart, mobile and virtual technologies and virtual networks. Human factors are related to human infrastructure and social capital, while institutional factors consist of governance, policy, regulation and directives (Nam & Pardo, 2011). Smart city technologies are especially manifested in applications in areas such as transportation, environmental sustainability, energy and natural resource conservation, health and education. These applications contribute to making cities more efficient, sustainable and people-oriented.The journey of smart cities started in the 1970s with the Los Angeles Cluster Analysis project. The first smart city concept emerged in Amsterdam in 1994. Smart city studies gained momentum in the 2000s with the initiatives of IBM and Cisco. Later, many countries supported the development of smart cities by 983 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal implementing similar projects (Verdict, 2020). In the last two decades, rapid developments in information technologies, advances in sensor technologies, and exponential growth in computing power have led to an increase and expansion of technology applications in cities. Smart cities utilize IoT networked devices, various software, user interfaces and communication networks to make life easier. IoT is a network of connected devices such as vehicles, household appliances, traffic lights, street lights, etc. that communicate with each other and exchange data. The data from these devices is stored in the cloud or on servers, enabling efficiency gains in both the public and private sectors and helping citizens realize economic benefits and improvements in quality of life.Smart cities have many features. First of all, smart cities are a concept based on the idea of utilizing technology and digital tools to increase the smartness of a city (Hollands, 2008). In this concept, information technologies are used to increase economic and political efficiency and to ensure social, cultural and urban development. Key components of smart cities include informed, educated and engaged citizens, as they play an important role in creating a high quality of life and civic space (Deakin, 2013). Moreover, supporting sustainable business initiatives is of great importance for strategic planning (Angelidou & Psaltoglou, 2017). Therefore, it is important to monitor and cooperate with neighboring cities (Angelidou, 2017). Privacy and security are considered critical issues in smart cities and relate to how data is used (Kitchin, 2015). Smart city strategies are also characterized by their ability to take into account local challenges, needs and opportunities (Paskaleva, 2011). Stakeholder involvement is also an important feature in the planning and implementation of smart city initiatives (Angelidou & Psaltoglou, 2017). They are large and costly projects that require ethical and political considerations and should be carried out with a planning approach that takes into account long-term community interests (Watson, 2014). For these initiatives to succeed, a clear strategic framework and an architecture that pays attention to complementarities are needed (Angelidou, 2014). Moreover, the development of smart cities should be a product of interdisciplinary planning, as it covers a broad spectrum of development and tackles pressing urban challenges (Burger et al., 2013). This development aims to integrate different dimensions of intelligence, such as information systems, human intelligence, collective intelligence and artificial intelligence (Deakin, 2013). The intelligence of smart cities is realized through the effective combination of communication lines, sensors and software (Manshanden & Lambooy, 2007). 984 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Smart City Framework Several frameworks should be used for the creation, consolidation and adoption of smart city capabilities (Govada et al., 2017). These frameworks can be divided into five key dimensions that include different categories related to smart city development (Sharifi, 2019):The technology framework includes the technological infrastructure and solutions used in smart cities. The effective use of technologies such as sensors, communication networks, artificial intelligence and automation are important elements of this framework. The people framework encompasses the residents, communities and users of smart cities. Factors such as humancentered design, participation, education and awareness form the basis of this framework. It is of great importance that smart cities are in line with the needs and expectations of people. The institutional structure dimension includes the institutions that manage and operate smart cities. The cooperation and coordination of public institutions, private sector companies, civil society organizations and other stakeholders form the basis of this framework. A good governance and policy framework ensures that smart cities operate in a sustainable and effective manner. The energy framework includes elements such as energy efficiency, renewable energy sources and smart energy management. Optimizing energy consumption and using sustainable energy sources is of utmost importance in smart cities. The data management framework includes the effective management and utilization of large amounts of data collected in smart cities. Issues such as data security, privacy, analysis and sharing are important components of this framework.These five key dimensions serve as guiding frameworks for the successful development and implementation of smart cities. Consideration of each dimension is crucial for smart cities to realize their full potential. Assessing the Challenges of Smart Cities from a Change Management Perspective In smart city initiatives, creating a roadmap is the first step. The key elements of this roadmap are community analysis, smart city policy development and community engagement with egovernment services and a strong city-wide Wi-Fi infrastructure. Research has identified common challenges of smart city initiatives. While budget constraints pose a key challenge to sustainability, social media and mobile communication technologies offer new opportunities for community engagement (Alawadhi et al., 2012). In addition, it has been stated that smart city applications change the organizational culture and increase the level of transparency and accountability through data-driven management.Integrating different technologies and existing infrastructure, ensuring data privacy and cybersecurity, promoting citizen participation and inclusion in decision-making, addressing the digital divide, managing sustainable and energy- 985 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal efficient practices, dealing with complex regulatory frameworks, securing adequate funding and investment, and developing flexible strategies to deal with potential disasters and emergencies are some of the challenges that need to be overcome in the process of implementing smart city initiatives. These challenges require collaborative efforts and innovative solutions and are important to achieve the goal of creating efficient, inclusive and sustainable urban environments in the future (Gupta, 2023).Organizations have to adapt to change in order to survive and adapt to environmental conditions. However, elements of resistance may emerge in the change process. Resistance is defined as forces that oppose change and prevent transformation. These elements of resistance may differ from organization to organization and may make it difficult for change to be successful. Therefore, it is important for organizations to remain robust, consistent and willing to change when faced with resistance to change. There are different reasons why people resist change. Work-related reasons include fear of technological unemployment, fear of increased workload, fear of lack of technical knowledge, fear of changes in the wage/reward relationship and high costs. Personal reasons include fear of the unknown, the need for security, the difficulty of giving up habits and the fear of failure, while social reasons include group norms and goals versus the goals of change, negative attitudes and mistrust towards change, unwillingness to give up existing social relationships and the perception that change is only in the interest of a particular group.Organizations use a variety of strategies to reduce or eliminate resistance to change. These strategies include participation, communication and education, negotiation, explicit or implicit coercion, manipulation and cooptation. Participation helps to reduce resistance by ensuring that those who are subject to or affected by the change are actively involved in the process. Communication and training are important for explaining the necessity of change, adopting new approaches and enabling individuals to adapt to change. Negotiation aims to gain the approval and support of those who will be affected by the change, while explicit or implicit coercion methods can be used to overcome resistance. Manipulation and cooptation can help reduce resistance by influencing those who are against change. However, if it is considered that the basic principles for change management can be applied to smart cities:Communication and Persuasion: Effective communication between stakeholders is crucial in the smart city transformation process. In this process, city residents need to be regularly and clearly informed about the reasons, benefits and process of change. In addition, transparent and participatory communication strategies should be used to gain public support. 986 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Leadership and Sponsorship: The role of leaders and influential sponsors is crucial in smart city transformation. Leaders should define and support the smart city vision and guide the process. Sponsors should assume responsibilities such as providing financial resources, participating in decision-making processes and removing barriers.Participation and Stakeholder Management: In smart city transformation, local communities, businesses, civil society organizations and other stakeholders should be actively involved in the process. This means understanding the expectations of the community, ensuring participation and taking into account the views of different stakeholders. Collaboration and partnership should be built to ensure stakeholder ownership and support.Vision and Goals of Change: A clear vision and goals should be set for smart city transformation. This vision should include smart city goals such as sustainability, quality of life, efficiency and innovation. The vision should provide a roadmap to bring all stakeholders together and guide the process.Planning and Resource Management: Smart city transformation requires comprehensive planning and resource management. This planning should meet the needs of technological infrastructure, data management, energy, transportation and other areas. Resources must be properly allocated to effectively meet the requirements, such as human, financial and technological resources.Dealing with Resistance: The smart city transformation process may encounter resistance. It is important to understand resistance, identify its source and deal with it with effective strategies. At this point, resistance should be reduced and public trust should be gained through methods such as education, information and transparency.Improvement and Learning: During the smart city transformation process, feedback should be continuously received and the process should be monitored. The experiences and learnings obtained in this way should be used to improve the process. In addition, the impacts and results of the change should be evaluated and lessons should be learned for future projects and initiatives. Conclusion These principles provide a basic framework for effectively managing change in smart cities. However, as each city has different needs and circumstances, change management strategies should be customized to local conditions. Key principles such as communication and persuasion, leadership and sponsorship, participation and stakeholder management, vision and goals of change, planning and resource management, dealing with resistance, improvement and learning are crucial for smart city transformation. These principles provide a framework for effectively managing change in smart cities and ensuring the active participation of society. The 987 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction The world's population has increased at an extraordinary rate throughout history, and much of this increase has taken place in cities. In the 21st century, the majority of the world's population now lives in urban areas and this trend is expected to continue. Rapid urbanization brings many opportunities as well as serious challenges. While cities offer attractive opportunities for economic growth, innovation, cultural diversity and social development, they also pose problems such as infrastructure deficiencies, environmental problems, traffic congestion and social inequalities. The solution to these problems and the future of urban areas are shaped around the concepts of urban transformation and smart cities (Komninos, 2008).Smart cities aim to make cities more efficient, sustainable and livable through the use of technology. Smart cities enable better management of cities through the use of various sensors, data analytics, internet connectivity and other digital technologies. These technologies support the development of cities in a range of areas, from optimizing transportation and reducing energy consumption to emergency management and environmental protection. Smart cities have the potential to transform not only physical infrastructure, but also community engagement and urban planning (Örselli & Can, 2019).Istanbul is the largest city in Turkey and is recognized worldwide for its historical and cultural heritage. As a bridge between the Anatolian and European continents, Istanbul is located at the junction of the Bosphorus and the Sea of Marmara. Thanks to this strategic location, Istanbul has been the center of many civilizations throughout history and has had a great influence in terms of trade, economy, culture and politics. In recent years, Istanbul has been undergoing a process of rapid urban development and change. The city is undergoing a major transformation due to factors such as population growth, economic growth and migration. High-rise housing, infrastructure projects, urban planning and social transformation efforts are changing the physical fabric and lifestyle of Istanbul. The steps taken and projects carried out by the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (IBB) within the scope of smart cities are among the determinants of this change and transformation.In the following sections of the study, information on smart cities is given first. Subsequently, IBB, as a local government, has provided information on the implementation of the Istanbul Smart City Strategic Plan and the activities carried out within the scope of the smart city perspective. Smart Cities The smart cities journey started in the 1970s with the Los Angeles Cluster Analysis project. Later, many countries supported the development of smart cities by implementing similar projects (Verdict, 2020). Factors used to define smart cities include the application of various 993 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal electronic and digital technologies, the use of ICTs to transform life and work environments within cities, the integration of ICT applications into government and public systems, and the regional development of innovation and knowledge through applications that bring ICTs and people together (Deakin, 2013).For a better understanding of the smart city concept, it is important to identify its basic components. Technology factors consist of physical infrastructure, smart, mobile and virtual technologies and virtual networks. Human factors are related to human infrastructure and social capital, while institutional factors consist of governance, policy, regulation and directives (Nam & Pardo, 2011).Smart cities are a concept based on the idea of utilizing technology and digital tools to increase the smartness of a city (Hollands, 2008). In this concept, information technologies are used to increase economic and political efficiency and to ensure social, cultural and urban development. Moreover, supporting sustainable business initiatives is of great importance for strategic planning (Angelidou & Psaltoglou, 2017). Therefore, it is important to observe and cooperate with neighboring cities (Angelidou, 2017). Moreover, for these initiatives to be successful, a clear strategic framework and an architecture that pays attention to complementarities are needed (Angelidou, 2014). Moreover, the development of smart cities should be a product of interdisciplinary planning, as it covers a broad spectrum of development and tackles pressing urban challenges (Burger et al., 2013). A variety of frameworks should be used for the creation, combination and adoption of smart city capabilities. Technology, people, organizational structure, energy and data management serve as guiding frameworks for the successful development and implementation of smart cities. Consideration of each dimension is crucial for smart cities to realize their full potential (Sharifi, 2019). Istanbul as a Smart City Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (IBB) has prepared the Smart City Strategic Plan, a strategy that aims to improve the quality of life of its residents and use resources effectively and efficiently by taking advantage of the opportunities brought by the information age. This plan aims to utilize data and technology-based solutions to meet the needs and expectations of all Istanbulites. The Istanbul Smart City Strategic Plan (2021-2030) summarizes the process of the project, explains the project management principles, presents the findings obtained during the progress of the project, and includes smart city strategies, strategic objectives, initiatives and projects specific to Istanbul. This is the first Smart City Strategic Plan prepared at the local government level in Turkey and has been developed in line with Turkey's National Smart Cities Strategy and Action Plan (İstanbul Akıllı Şehir Stratejik Planı, 2021). 994 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal A basic vision, main strategies, thematic area strategies, initiatives and approximately 180 project plans to develop the city have been identified to ensure that Istanbul achieves its Smart City goals. These project plans, which are in line with IBB's strategy, are born out of real needs, can be realized by stakeholders in harmony, are in line with global trends, can be developed with a sustainable vision, and have a clear and understandable quality that can add "smart" elements to other projects. With the Roadmap, which is the final stage for planning Istanbul's Smart City journey, all the data obtained from the previous stages were combined and the priorities, resource requirements, governance principles, communication plan and performance indicators of the projects gradually targeting the years 2023, 2025 and 2030 were clarified. The whole process brought together different expertise, with the project being implemented within IBB (İstanbul Akıllı Şehir Stratejik Planı, 2021).On the other hand, there are many studies on smart cities. According to the IESE 2024 study, the top 10 smart cities are London, New York, Paris, Tokyo, Berlin, Singapore, Oslo, Amsterdam, San Francisco and Chicago, while Istanbul ranks 93rd among 183 cities (IESE, 2024). Many studies are being carried out within the scope of smart smart cities in Istanbul. Studies carried out in Istanbul within the scope of Smart City Studies This section provides information on the activities carried out by the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality within the scope of the Istanbul Smart City Strategic Plan, the field strategies of these activities, the strategic goals and objectives in this direction, and the completed and not yet completed projects (Smart City Istanbul, 2024): Smart Mobility The Area Strategy envisages the use of dynamic and intelligent systems to ensure the most efficient use of available resources. Through these systems, the needs and demands of passengers will be identified and more comfortable, safe and environmentally friendly transportation services will continue to be provided. Istanbul stands out with its strengths in mobility. Factors such as the importance given to transportation by central and local governments and their openness to innovations, the implementation of many smart transportation systems in the city and the use of various modes of transportation support Istanbul's strengths in mobility. In addition, master plan studies and qualified human resources in the city also ensure that Istanbul has a strong position in terms of mobility.However, transportation demand has increased rapidly in recent years due to rapidly growing population and migration. However, despite accelerated transport investments after the 2000s, there are still infrastructure gaps and challenging expropriation processes for transport infrastructure in 995 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal urban planning. Moreover, the availability of different modes of transportation offers room for improvement in the integrated planning and operation of these modes.In the process of implementing the Area Strategy, a comfortable, safe, environmentally friendly, people-oriented and integrated transportation is targeted. An important step in this direction is to improve coordination and public transport, support sustainable modes of transport and make use of emerging information and communication technologies in the field of smart mobility to reduce traffic congestion. This strategy provides an important roadmap to find solutions to Istanbul's mobility problems and create a more sustainable transportation system in the future.Within the scope of Istanbul Smart City Strategic Plan, projects completed in the field of Smart Mobility include Public Transportation Control and Management Center Software, Dynamic Passenger Routing in Public Transportation, Real-Time Driver Analysis in Public Transportation and Real-Time Driver Analysis in IETT Vehicles. In addition, projects such as Artificial Intelligence Based Driver Behavior Analysis, Dynamic Asset Planning in Public Transport, Continuous Air Quality and Temperature Monitoring in Public Transport, Bicification, 34 Minutes Istanbul and Walk Be Istanbul have also been completed. However, projects such as Istanbul Transportation Management Control Center (IUYKM), Public Transportation for All, Smart Transportation Mobile Application (Transportation Assistant), Use of Istanbulkart in Minibuses, E-TUHİM Mobile Application, Dynamic Monitoring System in Public Transportation Vehicles, Electric Bicycle Sharing System, Smart Pedestrian Crossing System, Mobility Map, Urban Warehouse and Logistics Management System and many other projects have not yet been completed. Smart Environment In order to protect Istanbul's environmental resources, ensure sustainability and combat climate change, technological and environmental investments need to be realized in a timely and effective manner. In this direction, it is aimed to ensure that all organs and citizens of Istanbul are involved in the process so that the investments can be fully paid off. In addition, increasing environmental investments in public planning and the potential to cooperate with national and international organizations put Istanbul in a strong position in the field of environment. With the accumulation of knowledge in developed countries, the contribution of domestic researchers, financial support and increased environmental awareness, there are opportunities for progress in environmental issues. However, factors such as population growth, global economic contraction and consumption habits need to be taken into account. 996 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Strategic objectives have been identified to realize Istanbul's environmental goals. The first strategic objective is to use environmental resources consciously. To this end, initiatives such as water management, wastewater management, smart waste management and zero waste program aim to ensure efficient use of environmental resources. The second strategic objective is to increase the use of technology in agriculture. Environmentally sensitive agricultural activities are encouraged through sustainable agricultural practices. The third strategic objective is to manage sustainability and climate change.

Smart Energy Efforts are underway in line with Istanbul's strategic goals in the field of energy. In this context, it is aimed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase energy efficiency by supporting smart grids and renewable energy generation. Istanbul is advancing in the use of technological services such as air pollution monitoring systems, and projects fuel cell and Internet of Things technologies in cooperation with TÜBİTAK. It also stands out as a city with a high awareness of smart and renewable energy. While formulating energy strategies, practices in nearby geographies and the country's high energy potential were taken into account. However, challenges such as dependence on fossil fuels, inadequate renewable energy investment 997 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal strategy, lack of coordination and communication, weak electric vehicle incentives and infrastructure, and excessive external dependence were also taken into account. In this framework, Istanbul's energy strategy has been formulated taking into account factors such as climate change, depletion of natural resources, regional political uncertainties and population growth forcing infrastructure development.The strategic goals and objectives of Istanbul's energy strategy have also been identified. The first strategic objective is to use energy efficiently. For this purpose, it aims to achieve energy efficiency through initiatives such as energy efficiency in buildings, energy efficiency in lighting and raising awareness on energy efficiency. The second strategic objective is to use renewable energy. For this purpose, it is aimed to expand the use of renewable energy sources. The third strategic objective is to improve and develop energy infrastructure. This aims to strengthen energy infrastructure through initiatives such as electric vehicles and improving energy management infrastructure. These strategic objectives represent steps towards building a sustainable energy future for Istanbul. In the field of Smart Energy, projects completed under the Istanbul Smart City Strategic Plan include Smart Energy Management in IBB Buildings and Monitoring and Management of Smart Lighting Systems. In addition, a project to convert one bus in the IETT fleet into an electric vehicle has also been completed. However, projects such as Incentives for Renewable Energy Use, Dissemination of Electric Vehicle Use in Public Sector, Establishment of Istanbul Smart Energy Management Platform and Creation of Smart Natural Gas Meter Infrastructure have not yet been completed. Smart Governance Istanbul's spatial strategy aims to effectively manage the data collected from the city in order to adopt a holistic management approach and to include the urban ecosystem in the decisionmaking process. This will maximize the effectiveness of decision-making processes. Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality's establishment of the Smart City Branch Directorate and Smart City Governance structure, the existence of high awareness, the implementation of successful smart city initiatives, the current situation analysis, the existence of an e-Government initiative, a young population prone to technology, the support of competent universities, the existence of a technology startup ecosystem and the increase in the use of social media stand out as the points where Istanbul is advanced in governance. However, the lack of harmonization of legislation with the smart city, lack of a single e-service stop point, inadequate digital process management, difficulties in e-Government and smart city integration, institutional sensitivities regarding open data, lack of competent staff, management of smart city culture change, 998 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal immature smart city-oriented finance models, and low coordination and sharing in data collection and management represent the issues that Istanbul needs to improve in governance. Istanbul's strategic goals and objectives include increasing data-driven decision support mechanisms in city management and improving the effectiveness of city management through city governance modeling. The data-driven foresight initiative targets the use of data analytics and foresight models in city governance. The smart city management initiative aims to effectively manage and coordinate smart city applications. Improving citizen service quality initiative aims to provide more effective and faster solutions to citizens' needs. The initiative to bring participatory solutions to city needs aims to ensure the participation of city residents so that the city government can produce more democratic and diverse solutions. These strategic objectives reflect Istanbul's vision to create a smart city that is more advanced in governance. In the area of Smart Governance, projects completed under the Istanbul Smart City Strategic Plan include the Data Analytics Unit, Next Generation Data Driven Municipalism and IBB IT Enterprise Asset Management. In addition, projects such as Istanbul's Youth, Muhtardan Al Haberi and Söz Senin have also been completed. However, the Urban Management Center, eMahallem and many other projects are still pending. Smart Economy In the context of the spatial strategy, Istanbul's economic development potential is strengthened as a new commodity, "data", becomes available for every economic activity. This enables Istanbul to chart a new development scenario with a supported entrepreneurial spirit, a culture of collaboration, opportunities to attract investment and the productivity enabled by digitalized business processes. Istanbul's economic diversity, Turkey's largest urban economy, the presence of global companies' offices in Turkey, regional ICT R&D centers and technoparks in Istanbul, high municipal budget, entrepreneurial culture, dynamic workforce and young population represent Istanbul's economic strengths. However, the lack of open data, increasing demands for transparency, the negative impact of uncertainties in existing regulations on new initiatives, low per capita income compared to other competitive cities, exaggerated perception of risk and ecopolitical predictability represent areas where Istanbul's economy needs to improve.In the implementation of the strategies, Istanbul's young, competitive workforce, strategic location and logistics advantage should be utilized, brain drain should be taken into consideration and measures should be taken against the rapid development of rival cities. In line with the current situation analysis and the analyses conducted, it has been determined that creating a smart economy based on data and information, supported by open data and public- 999 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal private sector cooperation, is the most important development area for Istanbul. Accordingly, strategic goals and targets were identified. Supporting the public-private sector-academia cluster culture, developing public-private sector-academia collaborations and facilitating public procurement represent the first strategic objective. The second strategic objective focuses on increasing entrepreneurship and attractiveness. In order to achieve this objective, it is aimed to improve the business and investment environment and strengthen the entrepreneurship, productivity and innovation ecosystem. The third strategic objective is to increase employment and competence. In order to realize this objective, the initiative to increase human resources and competencies in the city stands out.In the field of Smart Economy, projects completed under the Istanbul Smart City Strategic Plan include the Internship Program in Public Sector (IstanbulSenin StajSenin), Istanbul Smart City Test Site and Take Action with IBB. In addition, the Vocational Competence School has also been completed. However, projects such as Istanbul Innovative City Platform Portal, Istanbul Business Clusters (Creative Industries Platform), IBB Public Market Project (E-Commerce Sales Project) and System Graduation have not yet been completed. Smart Living The area strategy aims to improve the quality of life through coordinated provision of technology-supported services and equal access for all. This strategy is supported by factors such as local governments taking life-oriented initiatives, integrating and coordinating the city's rich cultural and historical heritage with technology, and having a strong health and education infrastructure. In order to have a strong position in the living space, Istanbul aims to take advantage of opportunities such as increasing feedback mechanisms, conducting detailed feedback analyses, taking advantage of the conveniences provided by digital accessibility and evaluating active urban transformation projects. Strengthening the organizational structure, ensuring coordination and integration between units, improving emergency planning, improving data access infrastructure and focusing on innovation incentives are also among the strategic objectives.Within this framework, strategic goals and targets have been set. In order to ensure a high quality of life, various initiatives are planned to improve the urban experience, increase accessibility to services, provide integrated living spaces and ensure a healthy and barrier-free living environment. In order to expand smart applications in urban space management, initiatives to develop living spaces with smart technologies and to expand datadriven planning stand out. These strategic goals and targets support efforts to improve Istanbul's quality of life and urban space management.In the area of Smart Living, projects completed 1000 VI.

However, projects such as Suspended Invoice Kiosk, Wet Area Button, Project Design of Mobile Sales Units throughout Istanbul, Smart City Boards (DOOH), Creation of Digital Neighborhood Marketplace and City Digital Twin have not yet been completed. Smart Human The area strategy aims to achieve greater equality of opportunity in access to quality and modern educational opportunities and participation in urban life in Istanbul. Factors such as the widespread use of smart devices, the wide coverage of IBB Wi-Fi service, 12 years of compulsory education, government policies supporting asylum-seeking migrants and investments in knowledge-intensive sectors play an important role in achieving this goal. However, there is potential for improvement in areas such as increasing gender equality in education and business life, improving foreign language skills in the service sector, becoming a city preferred by foreign students, and increasing the number of university graduates in line with the young population. Factors such as the young population's openness to new technologies and the utilization of features such as mobile payments offered by smart devices, the presence of a migrant population, the persistence of economic difficulties, differences in digital literacy levels, and the low rate of university graduates should be taken into account when formulating a strategy.Within the framework of strategic goals and targets, it is aimed to develop individual competencies. In this regard, initiatives such as providing trainings tailored to the needs and aspirations of all segments and raising smart city awareness are among the prioritized targets. In addition, initiatives such as supporting participatory innovation to increase social inclusion and encouraging citizens' participation in urban life are also among the strategic objectives. These strategic goals and targets aim to identify the steps to be taken to increase the competencies of individuals and strengthen social inclusion in Istanbul.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Smart Security The area strategy aims to use smart solutions to quickly assess potential security risks and make communication and coordination more effective. In determining this strategy, the opportunity to make maximum use of advances in connectivity, sensors, data storage, image processing technologies and IoT security standards was considered. The areas where Istanbul needs to improve in the area of security include the lack of coordination between different law enforcement agencies, the operation of the electricity grid under high load, and improvements in data analysis and forecasting processes. Accordingly, it is important to focus on strengths such as establishing comprehensive monitoring systems, increasing security know-how, adopting people-oriented management approaches and improving earthquake studies.Improved coordination and integration between law enforcement agencies, along with increased data sharing, and the effective use of this data through advanced analysis and forecasting systems will contribute to a safer city life. Factors such as Istanbul's location on an active fault line, the increase in global terrorist incidents and threats of cyber-attacks pose significant security risks. In addition, population growth and political fluctuations in neighboring countries can also affect Istanbul's ability to defend itself. Within the framework of the strategic goals and objectives, important targets have been identified as increasing the effectiveness of security activities, strengthening security, enhancing cyber security and ensuring the maintenance of quality of life in emergencies. In order to achieve these goals, initiatives such as increasing security coordination, rapidly detecting security incidents, establishing warning and deterrent systems, increasing the safety of life and property, strengthening cyber security coordination, and effectively carrying out emergency and disaster management are important.Projects completed within the scope of the Istanbul Smart City Strategic Plan in the field of Smart Security include Artificial Intelligence Based Parking Management System, Security Pole, Fire Smoke Detection with Image Processing, Modernization of Disaster Coordination Center (AKOM), Flood / Flood Detection and Early Warning System with Image Processing, Earthquake Risk Detection of Buildings with Rapid Scanning Methods and Building Inspection with Building Health Systems.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Smart Organization and Human Resources One of the basic principles of the area strategy is that all stakeholders in the smart city ecosystem contribute to increasing the capacities of relevant institutions by cooperating in line with the common goals of Istanbul. Factors such as the realization of smart city investments in Istanbul with state support, the ownership of smart city projects by the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality and the establishment of the Smart City Branch Directorate show that Istanbul is strong in terms of organization and human resources. At this point, it is of utmost importance that all institutions adopt data sharing in line with the strategic goals, ensure coordination between units and increase interaction between the public-private sector and academia.Within the framework of strategic goals and targets, one of the primary objectives is to increase databased decision support mechanisms in city management. In this direction, initiatives to efficiently manage smart city projects and to train and acquire qualified human resources for smart city applications in Istanbul stand out. In order for Istanbul to be successful in the smart city field, the effective management and supervision of projects, the training of qualified human resources, and the presence of experts who are familiar with smart city technologies are of great importance. In this way, data-based decision support mechanisms will be strengthened and Istanbul's goal of becoming a sustainable and smart city will be supported.Within the scope of the Smart City Strategic Plan, no project has been completed in the field of Organization and Human Resources, while the Smart City Project Tracking Dashboard (My Project Smart City Project), Competent Human Resources for Innovative Istanbul and Smart City Employer Branding projects have not yet been completed. Smart Information and Communication Technologies For ICT applications to provide added value to services and for smart city solutions to be successfully implemented, it is important to adopt a holistic approach. This approach builds a structure that works together and enables integrated solutions by integrating the ICT perspective into investments and projects. Istanbul's strengths in the field of ICT include prioritization of ICT in the public sector, increased R&D support, increasing demand for ICT-based solutions from the young population, widespread ICT training, availability of cost-effective ICT human resources, strong mobile communication infrastructure and high public demand for ICT-based services.In line with the strategic goals and targets, the primary objectives are to anticipate and disseminate the benefits of emerging next generation technologies. In this context, the application of emerging next generation technologies to city services in Istanbul stands out as an initiative. In addition, in order to increase the level of smart city technology maturity and 1003 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ensure the sustainability of the city, initiatives such as the establishment of a smart city superstructure, the enrichment of smart city infrastructure and the establishment of a common communication backbone have been identified.

However, projects such as Blockchain - Digital Identity Management, ID Istanbul and API Istanbul have not yet been completed. Smart Finance In addition to public financing, smart city investments in Istanbul should focus on creative PPP models, private financing solutions and EU funds. Istanbul is in a strong financial position due to factors such as having a well-developed banking sector, being open to foreign direct investments, the central government's target to increase the R&D budget, the PPP model for large infrastructure projects, hosting the head offices of global and local companies, and the eGovernment system.In formulating the strategies, it was aimed to capitalize on EU funds, the increase in liquidity around the world, and the global flow of funds for technologies supporting smart cities. However, challenges such as slow and inflexible bureaucratic processes, insufficient support for innovative work, the informal economy, low levels of EU funding and limited venture capital are emerging as areas for improvement. In order for Istanbul to attract more FDI, it is important to change the perception of risk, to ensure macroeconomic stability, and to realize events and innovative practices in the city that will continuously raise the image of the city.In line with the strategic goals and targets, one of the primary objectives is to make smart city projects investable and manage them. In this context, making smart city projects eligible for alternative project financing and managing them effectively stands out as an initiative. By focusing on these strategic objectives, Istanbul aims to develop sustainable and profitable financing models for smart city projects. While there are no completed projects in the field of finance within the scope of the Istanbul Smart City Strategic Plan, projects such as Smart Fund Platform, Istanbul Our Fund and Smart City Project Finance are among the projects that have not yet been completed. 1004 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Conclusion Istanbul is recognized as an important metropolis with a large population and a dynamic economy. These characteristics of Istanbul have necessitated the launch of a series of projects within the scope of smart cities in order to find solutions to the city's various problems and ensure sustainable development. These projects aim to improve the city's physical infrastructure, services and quality of life. Smart cities aim to make cities more efficient, sustainable and livable through the use of technology and information systems. In this context, many smart city projects have been implemented in Istanbul. These projects include efforts to optimize transportation, reduce energy consumption, increase environmental sustainability and improve service quality. However, in addition to the projects that have been completed, there are many projects that have not yet been completed and are planned to take Istanbul further in the context of smart cities. These projects aim to further improve the city's infrastructure, utilize digital technologies more effectively and enhance quality of life. It is important to monitor the success of these projects during the implementation process and to conduct relevant audits and follow-ups. In this way, the effectiveness and efficiency of projects can be assessed and corrective measures can be taken where necessary. Further planning for Istanbul's smart city projects is also important. Areas that can be taken forward through the use of advanced technologies and innovative solutions should be identified and new projects should be developed accordingly. In addition, factors such as project financing, stakeholder collaboration and community involvement need to be considered. Istanbul's size, population and economic potential create a suitable ground for many projects within the scope of smart cities. Monitoring the success of these projects and conducting relevant audits and follow-ups are important steps for Istanbul to achieve maximum efficiency and transform into a sustainable smart city model. In addition, further planning and development of new projects in the future will enable Istanbul to move forward in the field of smart cities. 1005 VI.

Bu müdahalenin doğru zamanda, uygun endikasyon varlığında ve bireyselleştirilmiş yaklaşımlarla gerçekleştirilmesi son derece önemlidir. İndüksiyon yönteminin mevcut risk ve fayda dengesi göz önünde bulundurularak, ilerleyen teknoloji ve protokollerin rehberliğinde planlanması ve uygulanması, anne-bebek sağlığı açısından hayati öneme sahiptir. Günümüzde, doğum indüksiyonunda; farmakolojik, mekanik ve non-farmakolojik yöntemler olmak üzere çeşitli yaklaşımlar mevcuttur. Farmakolojik yöntemler arasında Prostaglandin E1 Analoğu- Misoprostol ve Prostaglandin E2Analoğu Dinoproston gibi ilaçlar bulunmaktadır. Mekanik yöntemler ise amniyotomi, transservikal foley kataterler ve higroskopik dilatörleri içerir. Non-farmakolojik yöntemler ise meme ucu stimülasyonu, uterus stimülasyonu, membranların sıyrılması ve cinsel etkileşim gibi doğal yöntemleri içerir. Hangi yöntemin tercih edileceği, hastanın ve hekimin tercihine bağlı olarak bütüncül bir yaklaşımla, gebe kadın ve ailesiyle iş birliği içinde planlanmalıdır. Gebe için en güvenli doğum sürecini; uygun tedavi basamakları ve kaliteli bakım hizmetleri ile sağlamak ebe ve doğum ekibi için temel sorumluluklar arasında yer almaktadır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal THE EFFECT OF CURRENT INDUCTION METHODS ON THE INTRAPARTUM PROCESS Abstract Inductions of labor are crucial interventions in pregnancy and childbirth, encompassing many factors that affect the health of both the mother and the baby. It is crucial that this intervention be performed at the right time, with appropriate indications, and through personalized approaches. Planning and implementing induction models in line with the existing balance of risks and benefits, guided by advancing technology and protocols, is one of the most critical steps for maternal and neonatal health. Today, the prevalence of labor inductions has increased, with various approaches available, including pharmacological, mechanical, and nonpharmacological methods. Among pharmacological methods are drugs such as Prostaglandin E1 Analog- Misoprostol and Prostaglandin E2 Analog- Dinoprostone. Mechanical methods include procedures like amniotomy, trans-cervical Foley catheters, and hygroscopic dilators. Non-pharmacological methods encompass natural techniques such as nipple stimulation, uterine stimulation, membrane stripping, and sexual intercourse. The choice of method should be based on the preferences of the patient and the physician, with a comprehensive approach involving collaboration with the pregnant woman and her family. Ensuring the safest childbirth process for the pregnant woman involves fundamental responsibilities for midwives and obstetric teams, including appropriate treatment steps and quality care services. This study evaluates the impact of current induction methods on the intrapartum process. Keywords: Midwifery, intrapartum, labour, induction 1009 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Tarihin her evresinde, kadın yaşamının doğal ve fizyolojik bir süreci olarak tanımlanan gebelik; son menstrual periyottan yaklaşık 38- 40 hafta sonra doğum eyleminin gerçekleşmesi ile tamamlanmaktadır. Bu süreç bireysel farklılıkların yanı sıra var olan risk katmanlarına göre çeşitli değişikliklere zemin hazırlamaktadır. Hedeflenen vajinal doğum eylemi; termde (38-42 hafta), tek ve canlı bir fetüs varlığıyla, kendiliğinden başlayan, verteks pozisyonda, baş- pelvis uyuşmazlığı olmadan sağlıklı bir fetüs ve annenin varlığı ile gerçekleşme sürecidir (Yılmaz ve Kaya, 2023). Bu sürecin kendiliğinden başlaması ve gereksiz müdahalelerden kaçınılarak gerçekleştirilmesi, Dünya Sağlık Örgütü (DSÖ) tarafından önerilen ve benimsenen kritik bir dönüşüm basamadığıdır (Baran ve ark, 2023). Dolayısıyla doğum eylemini başlatan temel mekanizmaların değerlendirilmesi, gebede meydana gelen değişikliklerin tespit edilmesi sağlık profesyonelleri tarafından birincil veri kaynağını oluşturmaktadır. Bu bağlamda; kemik pelvis uygunluğu, fetüsün pozisyon, prezantasyon ve duruşu, fetal baş çapları, serviks uygunluğu, uterin aktivasyon, myometrial bağlantılarda artış gibi birçok nesnel ölçüt bütüncül yaklaşımlar doğrultusunda değerlendirilmelidir (Yeşiltaş, 2023). 1. DOĞUM İNDÜKSİYON YÖNTEMLERİ Doğum indüksiyonu; eyleminin spontan başlamadığı veya ilerlemediği durumlarda farmakolojik, non- farmakolojik ve mekanik ajanlar yardımıyla servikal olgunlaşmanın ve düzenli uterin kasılmaların desteklenmesi için kullanılan indüksiyon yöntemleridir (Yorulmaz, 2022). Günümüzde kullanım sıklığının giderek arttığı düşünülse de indüksiyon uygulamalarının, hasta bazında bireyselleştirilmesi ve uygun tedavi protokollerinin uygulanması, maternal- fetal mortalite ve morbidite açısından kritik önem taşımaktadır. Doğum indüksiyon başarısını etkilen faktörler arasında birincil parametre; servikal olgunlaşmanın değerlendirildiği Bishop Skorlama Sistemidir. İndüksiyon uygulamaya başlamadan önce bu değerlendirmenin gerçekleştirilmesi uygulanacak indüksiyon yönteminin seçiminde ve başarı oranında uygulayıcıya yol göstermektedir (Yeşiltaş, 2023). 1010 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Tablo 1: Bishop Skoru, 1964 Yeşiltaş tarafından 2023 yılında yayınlanan bir çalışmada; Bishop Skorlama sisteminin uygulayan bireylere göre değişkenlik göstermesi, sonografik ve demografik özelliklerden yoksun olması ve çok az değişken içermesi nedeniyle nesnel bir ölçüm aracı olmadığı dolayısıyla güncel bir skorlama sistemine ihtiyaç duyulduğu belirtilmiştir. Çalışmacının tasarladığı Yeni Skorlama Sisteminde, Bishop Skorlama Sistemine ek olarak; yaş, vücut kitle indeksi, gravida, funneling varlığı ve genişliği, serviksin pozisyonu, servikal uzunluk, oksiput pozisyonu, fetal başın external osa uzaklığı, uteroservikal açı, servikal dilatasyon, tahmini fetal ağırlık gibi ölçüm ve sonografik bulgular yer almıştır (Yeşiltaş, 2023). Günümüzde kullanılan farmakolojik, mekanik ve non- farmakolojik doğum indüksiyon yöntemleri aşağıda yer almaktadır. Prostaglandin E1 Analoğu- Misoprostol: Misoprotol 1988’li yıllardan bu yana peptik ülser tedavisinde kullanılmakla birlikte günümüzde obstetrik ve jinekoloji alanında; Postpartum kanama tedavi ve cerrahisinde, abortusların tıbbi tahliyesinde, servikal olgunlaşma ve doğum indüksiyonu yöntemlerinde aktif olarak kullanılmaktadır (Karaca, 2020). Etkin maaliyet, kolay ulaşılabilir ve özel saklama koşulları gerektirmemesi avantajları arasında yer almaktadır (Yorulmaz, 2020). Misoprotol’un 100 ve 200 mikrogram tablet formları bulunmaktadır, Wing ve ark. tarafından hazırlanan çalışmada 25 mcg doz aralığının güvenilir doz aralığında olduğu ileri sürülmüştür (Wing ve ark, 1992). Prostaglandin E2- Analoğu Dinoproston: Gıda ve İlaç Dairesi (FDA) tarafından kullanılması önerilen ve 3 temel formda bulunan Dinoprostol; servikal olgunlaşma ve fundusta myometrial kontraksiyonların oluşumuna etki eden çeşitli mekanizmalara sahiptir. Jel, yavaş salınımlı vajinal ovül ve 10 mg’lık suppozatuar formları bulunmakla birlikte yan etkileri arasında; uterin hiperstimülasyon, fetal distres ve gastrointestinal etkiler arasında ise bulantı, kusma ve ateş yer almaktadır. Dolayısıyla uygulamanın sık gözlem ve takip altında gerçekleştirilmesi önerilmektedir (Yılmaz, 2020). 1011 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Benalcazar-Parra ve ark. tarafından 2019 yılında yayınlanan çalışmada Bishop Skoru 6 ve üzeri olan travay sürecindeki gebelere Misoprostol ve Dinoprostol indüksiyon uygulaması uygulanmıştır. Misoprostol uygulanan grupta uterin aktivite değişimlerinin 60. dakikadan sonra bazal değerden anlamlı derecede yüksek olduğu, Dinoprostol grubunda ise uterin kasılma süre ve sayısının 120. dakikadan sonra artış gösterdiği sonucu elde edilmiştir. Uygulanan iki doğum indüksiyon ajanının farklı farmakokinetik etkiye sahip olduğu ve farklı salınım süresine sahip olduğu düşünülebilmektedir (Benalcazar- Parra ve ark, 2019). Oksitosin: Doğum indüksiyon yöntemleri arasında en sık kullanılan farmakolojik bir ajan olarak yer almaktadır. Birçok alanda etkinliği kanıtlanan oksitosin; doğumun başlatılması ve sürdürülmesinde, postpartum dönemde, terapötik ve missed abortus tahliyesinde, laktasyonun arttırılmasında ve daha birçok alanda kullanılmaktadır (Yeşiltaş, 2023). 2-5-10 ünitelik ampüller şeklinde yer alır, yarılanma ömrü 3 ila 5 dakika arasında değişmektedir, etkinliği arasında myometrial aktivite ve hücreler arası bağlantının arttırılması, kontraksiyon oluşumunun desteklenmesi, şiddet, frekans, süre ve yoğunluğunun arttırılması yer almaktadır (Yeşiltaş, 2023). Tablo 2: Oksitosin Protokolleri Amniyotomi: Amniyon zarının ucu kancalı amnioper aracılığı ile rüptüre edilme işlemidir (Ekin, 2021). Her ne kadar doğum eylemini hızlandırdığı düşünülse de Dünya Sağlık Örgütü’nün 2018 yılında yayınladığı Pozitif Doğum Deneyim Rehberinde Amniyotominin tek başına indüksiyon yöntemi olarak kullanılmaması önerilmemektedir (WHO, 2018). Transservikal Foley ve Balon Kataterler: Her iki indüksiyon yöntemi de mekanik bir etki göstererek servikal olgunlaşma üzerine etki etmektedir. Foley Kataterler internal os üzerinde, Çift Balonlu Katater ise vajen ve serviks üzerinde gerginlik ve basınç etkisi oluşturarak endojen prostoglandin artışını arttırmaktadır (Yorulmaz, 2020). Higroskopik Dilatörler: Endoservikal alana yerleştirilen Higroskopik Dilatörler endoservikal alandaki sıvıyı absorbe ederek mekanik bir basınç ve gerginlik etkisi yaratmaktadır. Foley ve 1012 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Balon Kateterden farklı olarak bu indüksiyon yönteminde dışarıdan bir şişirilme işlemi uygulanmamaktadır (Yeşiltaş, 2023). Membranların Sıyrılması: Koryoamniyotik zarların alt uterin segmentten ayırılması işlemi olarak tanımlanmaktadır. İşaret ve orta parmağın internal ostan içeriye geçirilmesi ile sıyırılan memran miktarına paralel prostoglandin miktarında artış gözlemlenmektedir (Yorulmaz, 2022). Meme Ucu Stimülasyonu: Tüm yöntemler arasında uygulanması en basit, kolay ve hiçbir ek araca ihtiyaç duyulmadan gerçekleştirilebilecek olan meme ucu stimülasyonu; baş, işaret ve orta parmak kullanılarak meme ucu etrafında dairesel hareketlerle ve uca doğru nazikçe çekme eylemiyle uygulanabilmektedir (İbrahim ve ark, 2021). Uygulama esnasında hint yağı, ylan yağı gibi aromatik bileşenler kullanılabilmektedir.2021 yılında Mısırda benzer demografik özelliklere sahip 150 primipar gebe ile yürütülen çalışmada; meme ucu stimülasyonu, uterus stimülasyonu ve kontrol grubu ile uygulanan yöntemlerin etkinliği değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda müdahale gruplarında daha kısa aralıklı, daha uzun süren ve yüksek yoğunluktaki uterus kasılmaları ile ilişkili olduğu değerlendirilmiştir. Kontrol grubunda yer alan gebelerin yüksek oranda oksitosiklere ihtiyaç duyulduğu, C/S doğum oranını yükselttiği ve doğumun ilk evresinin müdahale grubuna kıyasla daha uzun sürdüğü kayıt altına alınmıştır. 2018 yılında Takahata ve ark. tarafından yayınlanan çalışmada bir ebe eşliğinde 16 gebeye meme ucu stimülasyonu uygulanmıştır. Müdahaleden 15 dakika öne ve müdahaleden 15-30-60-75-90 dakika sonra tükürük oksitosin seviyeleri 3 gün süresince immünsorbent tahlili ile ölçülmüştür. Çalışma sonucunda elde edilen verilerde meme ucu stimülasyonu ile 1. günde tükürük oksitosin düzeyinin artmadığı, 2. günde 15. dakikada artış göstermeye başladığı 3. Günde ise en yüksek tükürük oksitosin seviyesine meme ucu stimülasyonundan 30 dakika sonra ulaşıldığı bulgusu ortaya çıkmıştır (Takahata ve ark, 2018). 2. SONUÇ VE ÖNERİLER İndüksiyon uygulamaları, gebelik ve doğum sürecinde gebe ve fetüs için hayati öneme sahip uygulamalar arasındadır. Tedavinin bireyselleştirilmesi, sık gözlem ve takibin tedavinin her basamağında uygun önlem ve protokoller doğrultusunda gerçekleştirilmesi, gebenin psikososyal durumu ve tedaviye uyumu ile oryante edilmelidir. Her kadın, eşsiz bir gebelik ve doğum deneyimi için desteklenmeli, eşit koşullar ve hizmet kalitesi ile korunmalıdır. İndüksiyon uygulamalarının gerekliliği hekim ve sağlık profesyonelleri ile değerlendirilmeli, gebenin onamı alınmalı ve holikistik yaklaşımlar göz ardı edilmemelidir. 1013 VI.

Ortodontik tedavilerin mekanik yönleri yoğun bir şekilde araştırılmış ve geliştirilmiş olmasına rağmen, özellikle vitaminler gibi beslenme faktörlerinin ortodontik tedavi sonuçları üzerinde olası çok yönlü etkileri yeterince araştırılmamıştır. Bu sistematik derlemede, vitaminlerin ortodontik diş hareketleri, kök rezorbsiyonu, remodelling ve kemik turnover'ı üzerindeki etkilerini araştırmak amaçlanmıştır. Mevcut literatür vitaminler ve ortodontik tedavi arasındaki önemli ilişkiye ışık tutmaktadır. C vitamini, periodontal bağlar ve alveolar kemik bütünlüğünü destekleyerek, periodontal sağlığın korunmasına ve kök rezorbsiyonu riskinin azaltılmasına katkıda bulunabilir. Yeterli A vitamini seviyeleri, diş eti ve mukoza sağlığını iyileştirir ve periodontal dokuların ortodontik kuvvetlere yanıtını etkileyebilir. K vitamini, kemik metabolizmasına ve turnover'ına katkıda bulunur ve ortodontik tedavi sırasında diş hareketinin hızını ve alveolar kemiklerin yeniden şekillenmesini etkileyebilir. B6 (piridoksin), B12 (kobalamin) ve Folat (B9) gibi çeşitli B vitaminleri, enerji metabolizması, hücre çoğalması ve DNA sentezinde rol oynar. Ortodontiye özgü araştırmalar sınırlı olsa da, E vitamini, periodontal dokulardaki iltihabı ve oksidatif stresi azaltmada rol oynar ve böylece ortodontik tedaviye yanıtı etkileyebilir. Vitaminlerin ortodontik tedavi protokolleri üzerindeki etkisinin anlaşılması, hasta bakımını optimize etmek ve başarılı tedavi sonuçları elde etmek için önemlidir. Vitaminler ve metabolizma ilişkisiyle ilgili mevcut kanıtları sentezleyerek ve potansiyel etki mekanizmalarını keşfederek, vitaminlerin ortodontik tedavi açısından önemini açıklamayı ve bireysel beslenme ihtiyaçlarına uygun kişiselleştirilmiş ortodontik yaklaşımlara yönelik daha fazla araştırma teşvik edilmelidir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EFFECTS OF VITAMINS ON ORTHODONTIC TOOTH MOVEMENT Abstract Orthodontic treatment aims not only to improve aesthetics, phonetics, and function but also to enhance oral health. Although the mechanical aspects of orthodontic treatments have been extensively researched and developed, the potential multifaceted effects of nutritional factors such as vitamins on orthodontic treatment outcomes have not been adequately investigated. The purpose of this systematic review was to investigate the effects of vitamins on orthodontic tooth movements, root resorption, remodeling, and bone turnover.The literature illuminates the effects of vitamins on orthodontic treatment. Vitamin C may contribute to the maintaining periodontal health and potentially reducing the root resorption risk by supporting the integrity of periodontal ligaments and alveolar bones. Adequate levels of vitamin A improve gum and mucosal health and may affect the reaction of periodontal structures to orthodontic forces. Vitamin K contributes to bone metabolism and remodeling, and it might influence speed of tooth movement and reshaping of alveolar bones during orthodontic treatment. Various B vitamins, such as B6 (pyridoxine), B12 (cobalamin), and Folate (B9), are involved in energy metabolism, cell proliferation, and DNA synthesis. Although research specific to orthodontics is limited, vitamin E plays a role in reducing inflammation and oxidative stress in periodontal tissues, thus potentially influencing the response to orthodontic treatment.Understanding the effect of vitamins on orthodontic treatment protocols is important for optimizing patient care and achieving successful treatment outcomes. By synthesizing the existing evidence on the relationship between vitamins and metabolism and exploring potential mechanisms of action, elucidating the importance of vitamins in orthodontic treatment and encouraging further research towards personalized orthodontic approaches tailored to individual nutritional needs should be promoted.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction Orthodontic treatment involves a multifaceted and detailed procedure necessitating a deep comprehension of teeth migration within the alveolar bone and adjacent periodontal tissues. (Ong et al., 2002).The efficacy of this procedure hinges significantly on the integrity and quantity of the underlying bone support, which undergoes a complex remodeling process reacting to the exerted pressure (Becker et al., 2003; Topouzeliset al., 2012; Lopatieneet al., 2012). The bone remodeling process is governed by an array of factors, including genetics, age, and nutrition, which can capable of significantly impacting the outcome of orthodontic procedures. (Terao et al., 2012; Hartsfield et al., 2012).This literature review aims to explore the current literature evidence concerning the influence of vitamins on teeth repositioning during orthodontic treatment. By synthesizing findings from relevant studies, we aim to explore the potential mechanisms through which vitamins may influence orthodontic treatment outcomes and discuss their clinical implications for optimizing patient care.There are some hypotheses that certain vitamins might affect the effectiveness of orthodontic treatment such as vitamin C, vitamin A and vitamin D(Krishnan et al., 2021). Research has examined how vitamin A affects bone metabolism and tooth movement, but the findings are inconclusive. Further investigation is necessary to understand the potential mechanisms through which vitamin A influences movement of teeth (Shi et al., 2023).Through a comprehensive analysis in existing researches, this review seeks to elucidate the role of vitamins as modulators of orthodontic tooth movement, paving the way for future investigations and informing clinical practices aimed at enhancing treatment effectiveness and patient satisfaction. Materials and Methods Understanding the impact of vitamins on tooth movement in orthodontic treatment requires a systematic approach to reviewing the available literatures and synthesizing the findings. In this section, we outline the materials and methods employed in conducting this literature review. The materials utilized in this literature review include peer-reviewed articles, clinical trials, and observational studies retrieved from electronic databases such as Web of Science, Google Scholar and PubMed. The search strategy aimed to locate studies examining the effects of vitamins on movement of teeth, with a specific focus on their roles. The criteria for selecting studies varied but generally encompassed randomized controlled trials, peer-reviewed quantitative studies, non-randomized controlled trials, cross-sectional studies, comparative cohort studies, and case-control studies published in English. 1018 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal The outcome measures also varied across the studies and assessed different aspects of orthodontic treatment and movement of teeth such as bone metabolism, root resorbtion and tooth movement acceleration. Findings and Discussion In this section, we outline the discoveries from the literature review, organized by specific vitamins that have been studied in relation to movement of teeth.By systematically reviewing the literature on various vitamins and their impact on orthodontic movement, we aim to provide insights into potential strategies for optimizing treatment outcomes and enhancing patient care in orthodontic practice.While the existing body of literature provides valuable insights into the potential effects of vitamins on orthodontic tooth movement, several limitations and knowledge gaps remain.By addressing these gaps in knowledge, future research endeavors have the potential to advance our comprehension of the intricate interaction among vitamins and orthodontic tooth movement, ultimately contributing to the optimization of orthodontic treatment outcomes and patient care. Vitamin D: Vitamin D plays a crucial role in calcium regulation and skeletal growth, impacting bone restructuring. Its active form, 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol, enhances tooth movement by promoting bone resorption and modulating osteoclast activity. However, further research is needed to assess the safety and efficacy of vitamin D supplementation in promoting movement of teeth , particularly in orthodontic patients. (Krishnan et al., 2021; Khalaf et al., 2021). Additionally, a study by Kale et al. (2004) found that locally administered 1,25dihydroxycholecalciferol and prostaglandin E2 both increased movement of teeth significantly compared to a control group, with 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol showing superior effectiveness in regulating bone turnover during tooth movement due to its balanced effects on bone formation and resorption.The study by Kawakami and Takano-Yamamoto et al. (2004) explored how 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol affects alveolar bone formation during orthodontic tooth movement in rats. They found that repeated injections of this substance led to increased mineral apposition and osteoblast activity on the tension side of the periodontal ligament, suggesting that localized administration of calcitriol could promote the regeneration of dental supporting tissues, particularly the alveolar bone, after orthodontic tooth movement. 1019 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Vitamin C: Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, plays a vital role in collagen synthesis by aiding in the hydroxylation of proline and lysine residues within collagen molecules. This process enhances the stability and tensile strength of collagen fibers, which are major components of both the periodontal ligament and the alveolar bone. These structures are crucial for orthodontic tooth movement. One suggested mechanism is that Vitamin C's involvement in collagen synthesis is essential for the remodeling of the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone required during orthodontic tooth movement (Krishnan et al., 2021; Miresmaeili et al., 2015).Numerous studies involving both animals and humans have explored how Vitamin C affects movement of teeth. One randomized controlled trial conducted on humans found that daily administration of 500 mg of Vitamin C during orthodontic treatment caused significantly less root resorption than the group who taking a placebo (Miresmaeili et al., 2015). Another investigation carried out on male Wistar rats revealed that Vitamin C supplementation enhanced orthodontic tooth movement by promoting bone formation on the tension side and bone resorption on the pressure side during movement of teeth (Bolat et al., 2020). However, a review concluded that the evidence regarding the effects of Vitamin C on tooth movement is inconclusive, leaving uncertainty about whether Vitamin C supplementation effectively accelerates movement of teeth (Krishnan et al., 2021). Further research is necessary to determine the potential effects of Vitamin C supplementation on movement of teeth in humans. Vitamin K: Scarce studies have explored the correlation between vitamin K and orthodontic teeth repositioning. One study delved into the impacts of Vitamin K2 on bone reaction surrounding orthodontic mini-screw implants. The findings suggested that Vitamin K2 might activate various Vitamin K-dependent proteins and enhance bone formation around the implants that facilitate orthodontic tooth movement (Khazaal & Alzubaidi , 2019). Furthermore, further studies are needed to evaluate the possible impacts of Vitamin K supplementation or administration on the speed and effectiveness of orthodontic tooth movement. Vitamin A: Vitamin A is a crucial micronutrient that holds significance in numerous physiological processes, such as bone remodeling and growth.(Henning et al., 2015; Ribaya-Mercado et al., 2007). Research indicates that a deficiency in vitamin A can result in compromised bone formation, reduced bone density, and increased resorption of bone(Jackson et al., 2005; Crandall et al ., 2004). 1020 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Conversely, excessive intake of vitamin A can also detrimentally impact bone health and metabolism.Shi and colleagues (2023) conducted an experimental investigation to examine how vitamin A affects movement of teeth in male rats. The results showed that movement of teeth increased in a manner dependent on the dosage of vitamin A. However, the observed variances did not achieve statistical significance. There was also no significant difference in osteoclast numbers, lacunae presence, and root resorption between the study groups. The examination of serum alkaline phosphatase levels revealed no notable distinction among the groups receiving varying doses of vitamin A. In light of these results, it can be interferred that although vitamin A has a reported effect on bone metabolism and in this specific study, there was no elevation observed in alveolar bone restructuring and movement of teeth. Vitamin B: Research on the effects of Vitamin B on movement of teeth is still relatively limited. Vitamin B is a crucial nutrient involved in various bodily functions. Vogiatzoglou et al. (2009) found that consuming vitamin B-12 from dairy products led to the greatest rise in plasma vitamin B12 levels in the general population, highlighting the importance of sufficient intake of this vitamin.Vitamin B complex is essential for maintaining healthy bone metabolism and can indirectly impact orthodontic tooth movement. It is involved in various physiological processes, including the metabolism of important nutrients like calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus necessary for bone balance. Additionally, it may contribute to preserving the health and robustness of the bones, which are integral to orthodontic tooth movements.Hence, ensuring adequate levels of Vitamin B complex may be crucial for promoting optimal bone health and facilitating orthodontic tooth movements.In summary, Vitamin B complex may contribute to maintaining proper bone metabolism, which is essential for optimal tooth movement during orthodontic treatment. Conclusion and Recommendations The findings of this study add to the expanding body of knowledge in the literature investigating the relationship between vitamins and orthodontic tooth movements. However, the findings are not conclusive and further research, particularly through human experiments, is needed to elucidate the exact mechanisms that determine the effects of vitamins on movement of teeth. However, additional research is needed to determine the specific effects of Vitamins B and A on orthodontic tooth movements and their impact on orthodontic treatment outcomes. 1021 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Future studies could investigate the potential benefits of combining different vitamin supplements to enhance tooth movement during orthodontic treatment. Clinicians may need to consider alternative methods for accelerating tooth movement to improve treatment outcomes. In conclusion, the existing literature presents inconclusive findings regarding the effects of vitamins on movement of teeth, underscoring the necessity for additional research to delve deeper into the relationship between vitamins and movement of teeth. Maintaining a healthy, balanced diet, including sufficient vitamin and mineral intake, may be beneficial for optimal orthodontic outcomes. 1022 VI.

Doğal kaynakların tükenmesi ve ekosistemlerin zarar görmesi gibi sorunlar büyük bir endişe kaynağı oluşturmaktadır. Bu bağlamda, boyar maddelerin çevre kirliliği üzerindeki etkileri göz ardı edilmemelidir. Boyar maddeler çeşitli endüstriyel alanlarda kullanılan kimyasal bileşiklerdir. Tüketime sunulan tüm madde ve malzemelerin renklendirilmesinde, boyar maddeler yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Boyar maddeler üretimleri ve tüketimleri sürecinde toprak ve su kirliliği oluşturmaktadır. Boyar maddeler atık oluşturması dolayısıyla doğrudan veya dolaylı olarak ekolojik dengenin bozulmasına yol açmaktadır. Boyar maddelerin gideriminde adsorpsiyon, koagülasyon-flokülasyon, oksidasyon, ozonlama, filtrasyon, elektrokimyasal işlemler gibi çeşitli fiziksel ve kimyasal yöntemler kullanılmaktadır. Adsorpsiyon atık sudan boyar madde gideriminde yaygın olarak kullanılan bir prosestir. Bu çalışmada atık su arıtma tesisinden çıkan arıtma çamuru çeşitli kimyasal ajanlarla aktive edilerek aktif karbon üretilmiştir. Arıtma çamurundan aktif karbon üretimi atıkların geri dönüşümünde verimli, uygun maliyetli, sürdürülebilir çözüm sunmaktadır. Arıtma çamurunun kimyasal aktivasyonunda potasyum hidroksit (KOH), çinko klorür (ZnCl2 ) ve fosforik asit (H3 PO4 ) aktivasyon ajanı olarak kullanılmıştır. Arıtma çamuru kütlece 1:1 oranında (biyokütle/impregnant) aktivasyon ajanı ile aktive edilmiştir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INVESTIGATION OF ACTIVATED CARBON PRODUCTION AND DYESTATE REMOVAL FROM SURGERY SLUDGE Abstract Nowadays, the rapid development of industry has brought many problems, especially environmental pollution. The problems such as depletion of natural resources and ecosystem damage are of great concern. In this context, the effects of organic dyes on environmental pollution should not be ignored. The organic dyes are widely used chemical compounds used in various industrial fields coloring of materials. The organic dyes results environmental pollution in production and consumption processes. As a result of organic dye contamination in the environment, it leads to the disruption of the ecological balance, directly or indirectly. Various physical and chemical methods such as adsorption, coagulation-flocculation, oxidation, ozonation, filtration and electrochemical method are utilized in waste water treatment. Adsorption is a widely used process for the removal of dyes from wastewater. In this study, activated carbon was produced by chemical activation of sewage sludge, resulted from wastewater treatment process. Activated carbon production from sewage sludge offers an efficient, cost-effective and sustainable solution for recovery of wastes. Potassium hydroxide (KOH), zinc chloride (ZnCl2 ) and phosphoric acid (H3 PO4 ) were used for chemical activation of sewage sludge. The sewage sludge was activated with chemicals at a ratio of 1:1 (biomass/impregnant). The activated sewage sludge was carbonized at 6000 C for 1 hour in the presence of nitrogen gas. The methylene blue adsorption performance of as-obtained activated carbon samples was investigated. 30 mL of methylene blue solutions with a concentration of 20 mg L−1 were shaken with 0.01 g activated carbon at 140 rpm for 24 hours. The methylene blue removal rates of the activated carbons activated with potassium hydroxide (KOH), zinc chloride (ZnCl2 ) and phosphoric acid (H3 PO4 ) were obtained as 97.43%, 33.43% and 55.74%, respectively. Activated carbon prepared with potassium hydroxide (KOH) presented the highest removal performance. The activated carbons prepared in this study were synthesized successfully and shown high potential in methylene blue adsorption. Keywords: Sewage sludge, Actived carbon, Adsorption 1026 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Boyalar genellikle sentetik kökenlidir ve karmaşık aromatik moleküler yapılara sahiptir, bu da onları daha kararlı hale getirir ve biyolojik olarak parçalanmalarını daha zor hale getirir. Günümüzde ticari olarak 10.000'den fazla boya mevcuttur. (Gong vd., 2005) Boyama teknolojisi keşfedildiğinden beri, kauçuk, plastik, tekstil, kağıt, deri ve gıda gibi endüstriler için boya uygulamalarının sayısındaki artış, su ortamında bulunmalarına yol açmıştır. Bu atık su, bozunmaya karşı inatçı olan azo, metan, nitro ve karbonil dahil olmak üzere doğal ve sentetik boya karışımı içerir. Sadece estetik değeri etkilemez, aynı zamanda ışık nüfuzunu ve fotosentezi de azaltır. Ayrıca bazı boyalar ya toksik ya da mutajenik ve kanserojendir. (Gong vd., 2005) Metilen mavisi, renklendirici maddelerde, geçici saç renklendiricilerde, pamukluların, yünlerin boyanmasında, kağıt stoğu için kaplamada vb. yaygın olarak kullanılan yüksek hacimli üretim ticari boyasıdır. (Krı̇ stantı̇ ve Hadı̇ barata, 2016) Metilen mavinin toksisitesi ve düşük biyolojik olarak parçalanabilirliği yüksektir ve kusma, ishal, gastrit, göz yanıkları, baş ağrısı ve göğüs ağrısı gibi birçok olumsuz sağlık etkisi vardır. (Krı̇ stantı̇ ve Hadı̇ barata, 2016)Atık su içeren boyaların arıtılması için geleneksel yöntemler, flokülasyon, oksidasyon veya ozonlama, membran ayırma ve aktif karbon adsorpsiyonudur. (Gong vd., 2005) Ancak bu teknolojiler önemli bir etkinlik veya ekonomik avantaj göstermemektedir. (Gong vd., 2005) Çok sayıda araştırma, atıksudan adsorpsiyon prosesi ile boya giderimi işlemini ortaya koymuştur. Adsorpsiyon işlemi sırasında polimerik adsorbanlar, aktif karbon ve karbonlu adsorbanlar gibi üç yan ürün vardır. (Krı̇ stantı̇ ve Hadı̇ barata, 2016) Tüm alternatif adsorbanlardan, boyayı çıkarmak için yaygın olarak kullanılan uygulanabilir yöntem aktif karbondur. Bu nedenle, aktif karbon alternatifi olarak yeni adsorbanın taranmasına ihtiyaç vardır.Arıtma çamuru, yüksek organik içeriği ve tehlikeli maddeler salma kabiliyeti nedeniyle çevresel bir sorundur. (Gı̇ wa vd., 2023) Ayrıca atıksularda fiziksel ve kimyasal arıtma yöntemlerinin kullanılması önemli miktarda geri dönüştürülebilir organik maddelerin oluşmasına neden olmaktadır. Arıtma yöntemleri arasında depolama, ıslak oksidasyon, kompostlama, kurutma, stabilizasyon, yakma, piroliz, karbonizasyon, sıvılaştırma ve gazlaştırma yer alır. (Gı̇ wa vd., 2023) Bu arıtma çamuru arıtma yöntemlerinden bazıları ekosisteme zarar verir ve arıtma çamurunun potansiyel kaynak değerinin gereğinden az kullanılmasına neden olur. Bu çalışma arıtma çamurundan aktif karbon üreterek geri kazanılması ve metilen mavi giderimindeki rolünü araştırmayı amaçlamıştır. Metod Arıtma çamuru ilk olarak 110 0C etüvde kurutularak nemi giderilmiştir. Arıtma çamurunun kimyasal aktivasyonunda potasyum hidroksit (KOH), çinko klorür (ZnCl2 ) ve fosforik asit 1027 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal (H3 PO4 ) aktivasyon ajanı olarak kullanılmıştır. Arıtma çamuru kütlece 1:1 oranında (biyokütle/impregnant) aktivasyon ajanı ile aktive edilmiştir. Aktive edilen arıtma çamuru 6000 C’ de 1 saat süre ile azot gazı eşliğinde karbonizasyona tabii tutulmuştur. Aktif karbon numunesi sırası ile 1 M HCl , kaynar su ve saf su ile yıkanmıştır. Yıkanan aktif karbon numunesi 110 0C etüvde kurutulmuştur. Adsroban miktarının etkisini incelemek üzere 0,01 g aktif karbon numunelerinin üzerine 30 mL 20 mg L-1 konsantrasyonundaki metilen mavi çözeltisi eklenmiştir, 140 rpm’de 24 saat çalkalanmıştır. Adsorpsiyon sonrasındaki metilen mavi çözeltisi konsantrasyonları 665 nm’de UV-Vis spektrofotometre kullanılarak tayin edilmiştir. Şekil 1. Kurutulmuş arıtma çamuru Bulgular Arıtma çamuru kütlece 1:1 oranında (biyokütle/impregnant) aktivasyon ajanı ile aktive edilmiştir. Aktive edilen arıtma çamurundan üretilen aktif karbon numunelerinin adsropsiyon yüzdesi etkisine bakılmıştır. Sonuçlar Şekil 2 (a)’da sunulmuştur. En yüksek adsropsiyon giderim yüzdesi potasyum hidroksit (KOH) aktivasyon ajanı ile elde edilmiştir. Aktivasyon ajanı olarak potasyum hidroksit (KOH) belirlenmiştir. Deneysel izoterm sonuçları Şekil 1 (b)’ de verilmiştir. Deneysel olarak ulaşılabilen en yüksek adsorpsiyon kapasitesi 70,39 mg g-1 olarak elde edilmiştir. Deneysel izoterm sonuçlarına lineer Langmuir ve Freundlich izoterm denklemleri uygulanmış ve sonuçlar Şekil 1(c) ve Şekil 1(d)’ de verilmiştir. Langmuir denkleminden elde edilen R2 değeri 0,99, Freundlich denkleminden elde edilen R2 değeri 0,88 olarak bulunmuştur. Sonuçlardan gözlemlendiği üzere tek tabakalı adsorpsiyon profili olan Langmuir modeline uyumlu olduğu belirlenmiştir. Langmuir model denkleminden hesaplanan maksimum adsorpsiyon kapasitesi 72,46 mg g-1 olarak bulunmuştur. 1028 VI.

Adsropsiyon atık su içerisindeki yabancı maddelerin gideriminde düşük maliyet ve yüksek performans özellikleriyle en etkili yöntem olarak kullanılmaktadır. Çalışma kapsamında arıtma çamurunun aktivasyon ajanları ile aktive edilerek üretilen aktif karbonun metilen mavi adsorpsiyonundaki giderimi incelenmiştir. En uygun aktivasyon ajanı %97,43 adsorpsiyon giderim yüzdesi ile potasyum hidroksit(KOH) olarak belirlenmiştir. Metilen mavi adsorpsiyon izoterm modeli incelenmiştir. En uygun adsorban miktarının 72,46 mg g-1 olduğu ve tek tabakalı Langmuir izoterm modeline uyum sağladığı görülmüştür. Atık olarak değerlendirilen arıtma çamurundan aktive edilerek aktif karbon üretilmesi atık yönetimi ve çevresel sürdürülebilirlik açısından verimli bir alternatif olarak görülmüştür. 1029 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal PRODUCTION OF ACTIVATED HYDROCHAR BY HYDROTHERMAL CARBONIZATION METHOD AND ITS EVALUATION IN CRYSTAL VIOLET ADSORPTION Abstract Biomass is a natural or processed complex of organic or inorganic compounds derived from animal and plant source and widely used in various industrial processes and energy production. It is a renewable and alternative energy source such as wind, solar, water, and geothermal energy sources. Agricultural residues, forest industry residues, energy crops, all kinds of plant residues, household waste, animal waste, industrial waste, and forestry residues constitute biomass waste. Biomass resources can also be used for the production of valuable materials such as activated carbon. In this study, gilaburu pulp was hydrothermally activated Hydrothermal carbonization is a thermochemical process that occurs in water as carbonization media at low temperature and under spontaneous pressure. The gilaburu pulp is known as a plant grown in the Southeast Anatolia region and is used for various purposes in traditional medicine. In hydrothermal carbonization experiments, 3 g of gilaburu pulp was placed in a stainless steel autoclave reactor with 50 mL of H2O, mixed in the hydrothermal reactor, and hydrothermally treated for 24 hours at 210°C in an oven. The hydrochar obtained at the end of the reaction was filtered and dried at 105°C for 24 hours. The as-obtained hydrochar was impregnated with phosphoric acid (H3PO4) at a mass ratio of 1:2 (biomass/impregnant). The impregnated hydrochar was carbonized at 800°C for 1 hour under nitrogen gas flow. The crystal violet removal performance of the activated hydrochar sample produced by activation with phosphoric acid was investigated in a batch adsorption system. In the adsorption process, 30 mL of crystal violet solutions with a concentration of 20 mg L-1 were shaken with 0.01 g of activated hydrochar at 140 rpm for 24 hours. The removal efficiency of crystal violet obtained for the sample activated with phosphoric acid at a mass ratio of 1:2 was approximately 98%. The activated hydrochar prepared in this study was successfully synthesized and exhibited high performance in crystal violet adsorption.

Hidrotermal karbonizasyon süreci 20. Yüzyılın başlarında karbon açısından zengin katı yakıt üretmek için geliştirilen bir yöntemdir. (Evcı̇ l vd., 2020) Bu süreçte biyokütle, yüksek sıcaklık ve basınç altında birkaç saat boyunca karbon açısından zengin ürünlere dönüştürülür. (Evcı̇ l vd., 2020) Hidrotermal karbonizasyon prosesinde hidroliz, dehidrasyon, dekarboksilasyon, yoğunlaşma ve polimerizasyonu içeren bir dizi reaksiyon meydana gelir. (Salaudeen vd., 2021) Hidroçar olarak adlandırılan katı ürün, atık su kirliliğinin iyileştirilmesinde, kataliz, enerji depolama, adsorpsiyon gibi çok çeşitli uygulamalarda kullanılabilir. (Wang vd., 2018) Biyokütlelerin hidrotermal karbonizasyonu, çeşitli avantajlar içermektedir. Biyokütle olarak genellikle tarımsal atıklar, odun artıkları, selülozik materyaller ve diğer organik kaynakların kullanımını içermektedir.

Ham petrol, günümüzde enerji ihtiyacının büyük bir kısmını karşılayan ve önemli bir enerji kaynağıdır. Ham petroldeki kükürt giderimi (desülfürizasyon) geçmişte olduğu gibi günümüzde yapılmaya devam edilmektedir. Çünkü sülfür bileşikleri, yanma sırasında egzoz gazlarında kükürt dioksit oluşturarak hava kirliliğine ve asit yağmurlarına yol açabilir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal MODIFICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF CLINOPTHYLLOLINE FOR ADSORPTIVE DESULFURIZATION OF CRUDE OIL Abstract In today's world, the increasing global population and the rising energy demand have made it crucial to deplete and purify energy resources. Crude oil, a significant energy source that currently meets a large portion of the energy demand, requires sulfur removal (desulfurization) as it has been historically practiced and continues to be done so today. Sulfur compounds in crude oil can produce sulfur dioxide in exhaust gases during combustion, leading to air pollution and acid rain. Additionally, these sulfur compounds can shorten the lifespan of engines and catalysts. Therefore, it is important to remove sulfur compounds from crude oil and clean up the resulting products. Desulfurization is usually carried out during the refining stage and various methods can be used. While there are different methods for sulfur removal, this study utilizes the Adsorptive desulfurization technique. clinoptilolite has been chosen as the preferred adsorbent for this method. To enhance the selectivity of klinoptilolite, a volcanic aluminosilicate mineral, and to optimize adsorption processes, it has been modified with NaCl. The study involved processes with four different parameters: particle size, duration, rate, and dosing. Subsequently, through the analysis of crude oil states pre and post-desulfurization process using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), efficient results were obtained.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction Access to energy is crucial for a society's well-being, economic development and quality of life. Therefore, removing barriers to access to available energy can only be possible by increasing available energy. For this reason, researchers have increased their studies on energy in recent years and have made efforts to ensure that available energy resources do not harm the environment and human health (Kavak & Haspolat, 2022) Throughout history, energy systems have relied on fossil fuels (coal, oil and gas). The use of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, which are considered to be the main cause of global climate change. The combustion of fossil fuels produces large amounts of carbon monoxide; oxides of sulphur, SO2 and SO3 (represented as SOx); oxides of nitrogen, NO and NO2 (represented as NOx) and particulates, which have been proven to be harmful to human health and the environment (Sonel Aü Fen Fakültesi, 1997). Sulfur content in gasoline and diesel fuels has been limited, especially due to the harmful effects of SOx gases released as a result of combustion. Governments try to reduce the concentration of petroleum products such as gasoline and diesel below 15 ppm in accordance with existing rules.Adsorption desulfurization studies have recently gained importance due to their potential applications in desulfurization of various materials (Gupta et al., 2021; Salehi et al., 2020; Tuna et al., 2020). In this method, the sulfur and sulfur-containing compounds of the hydrocarbon adhere to the solid adsorbent surface. The effectiveness of the method is proportional to the effectiveness of the adsorbent (Blanco Brieva et al., 2010).History and formation of crude oil Petroleum is known as crude oil or crude oil. It is a dark liquid and has a color close to black. It has a pronounced viscosity and has an acceptable odor if it contains a low proportion of sulfur compounds. If it has high proportions of nitrogen compounds, or both, it has an unpleasant odor. Petroleum liquid is lighter than water and different types have different densities. It is also a flammable liquid. The most important sulfur compounds found in petroleum are (methylthio and thiophene compounds, as well as hydrogen sulfide gas H2S) and some sulfur compounds (Younis Muhammad Al-Hassan, 2019). Figure 1 (a) Tiyofen, (b)Mercaptan (Younis Muhammad Al-Hassan, 2019) 1039 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Production of Crude Oil Oil and gas production is the process of extracting hydrocarbons and separating the mixture of liquid hydrocarbons, gas, water and solids (Bahadori et al., 2013). Production facilities usually process crude oil from multiple wells. Oil is almost always processed at a refinery; natural gas may be processed to remove contaminants in the field or at a natural gas processing plant. Crude oil and natural gas are usually removed from the fields where they are produced and transported to refineries and gas processing plants, where they are either made into feedstock for another production process or processed into final products. Desulphurization Given regulatory limits, the sulfur compounds or sulfur content in liquid fuels must be controlled. These controls require the application of various methods for the effective removal of sulfur from liquid fuels. (Crandall et al., 2019) These methods are used in a wide range of applications, from industrial applications to laboratory research. Figure 1.1 shows a schematic representation of various desulfurization techniques. (Khodadadi Dizaji et al., 2019; Nath Prajapati & Verma, 2018; Prajapati & Verma, 2017) Figure 2 Desulfurization Methods 1040 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Adsorptive desulfurization (ADS) It is a relatively new technology for sulfur removal from fuel. It is quite popular among researchers due to its inexpensive nature and ease of adaptation to different fuel processors. It involves the process of contacting an activated/functionalized adsorbent to remove sulfur from fuel. The fact that it does not require hydrogen, operates under moderate temperature conditions (from room temperature to about 100°C) and adsorbent renewability make it an economical desulfurization method. To date, many different adsorbents have been focused and the process technology adapted for ultra-low desulfurization. Many of the reported materials and processes together with various mechanisms and process conditions will be extensively investigated. In the adsorption desulfurization technique, the active adsorbent is placed on a rough, non-reacting substrate providing a high surface area. Adsorption occurs when sulfur molecules adhere to the adsorbent and remain separated from the fuel. Different researchers have used this technique to remove sulfur from different types of fuel oils and model oils using various types of adsorbents (Hernández-Maldonado & Yang, 2004; Lee et al., 2002; Li et al., 2007; Ma, Sun, et al., 2002; Sano et al., 2005; Weitkamp et al., 1991; Yu et al., 2005). Effects of Process Parameters on Adsorptive Desulfurization Contact time Contact time has a great influence on the adsorption efficiency of any adsorbent. In general, with the increase in contact time, the adsorption capacity of an adsorbent increases until it reaches equilibrium. Adsorbent dosage In general, the percentage of adsorption or desulfurization increases with increasing adsorbent dosage due to the increased number of accessible active sites (Ganiyu et al., 2016; Saleh et al., 2017). Adsorption temperature Temperature is a critical process parameter in adsorption. It affects both the adsorption rate and the absorption capacity. With increasing temperature, the adsorption rate is expected to increase as sulfur compounds move faster through the pores of the adsorbents and overcome the activation energy barrier. The effect of temperature on adsorption capacity depends on whether the particular adsorption process is exothermic or endothermic. 1041 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Initial sulfur content of the feedstock The Langmuir (1) and Freundlich (2) isotherms describe monolayer adsorption and heterogeneous adsorption, respectively. These isotherms relate the sulfur uptake per unit weight of adsorbent (qe) to the equilibrium sulfur concentration (Ce) in the bulk liquid as shown below. Ce/qe=1/KQm+C/Qm (1)logqe = logKF +1/n logCe (2)Where Ce, K, Qm, KF and n stand for the sulfur concentration in the fuel at equilibrium, Langmuir isotherm constant, Freundlich isotherm constants related to maximum monolayer coverage capacities, adsorption capacity and adsorption intensity, respectively. Some Adsorbents Used in Adsorptive Desulfurization The selection of a suitable adsorbent is important for all adsorption processes including ADS. An efficient adsorbent should be porous, physically and chemically stable, environmentally friendly and suitable for recovery. ADS adsorbents are substances such as microporous EC, zeolites, alumina, mesoporous silica and recently MOFs, which are widely discussed in the literature. In this chapter, detailed descriptions of these adsorbents and various sulfur removal studies using these adsorbents are presented. Furthermore, (adsorptive) sulfur removal tests and the experimental conditions used in the tests are briefly presented. In the desulfurization process of sulfur-containing liquid fuels, conditions such as S exposure times of adsorbents, S concentrations, temperatures and durations are important factors to be taken into account when establishing recovery strategies. Zeolite-based adsorbents Zeolites are microporous crystalline aluminosilicates with high external surface area (150-500 m2/g) and three-dimensional structure. Due to their stable skeletal structure and ability to cation exchange, zeolites are more widely studied materials for ADS treatment. The adsorption capacity and selectivity of metal cation-exchanged zeolites towards sulfur compounds were found to be very high due to the presence of metal-based active sites on the surface (Dehghan & Anbia, 2017). Among different types of zeolites, Y-type zeolites such as Ag/Y, Cu/Y, Ce/Y, Na/Y, Ni/Y, La/Y are the most studied materials for ADS due to tunable porosity for sizeselective adsorption, high ion exchange capacity and good thermal stability. Like metal oxidetype adsorbents, adsorptive desulfidation with zeolites involves π complexation, sulfur-metal and Lewis acid-base interactions. Selective adsorption of sulfur compounds in the presence of aromatic and nitrogenous compounds is a challenging process as they have similar structures and adsorption energies (Song et al., 2013),(Zu et al., 2020),(Ma, Song, et al., 2002). 1042 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Scanning electron microscope (SEM) X-ray fluorescence (XRF) Characterization Methods of Clinoptilolite Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) Figure 2 Characterization Methods of Clinoptilolite Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) It is an extremely useful technique for confirming the identity of pure compounds, but of limited value when used for mixtures of compounds. The technique is based on the identification of functional groups within molecules, where these groups vibrate (stretch or bend in various ways) when irradiated with light of specific wavelengths (NicDaéid, 2019) Infrared spectroscopy is a field in which the electromagnetic field of matter interacts in the infrared radiation (IR) region as a function of photon frequency. First, a glowing blackbody light source emits a beam of infrared energy. Then, the infrared beam enters the interferometer, where it generates an interferogram signal. Next, the beam enters and passes through the sample chamber or reflects off the sample surface. When materials are exposed to infrared radiation, the sample molecules absorb certain wavelengths of radiation, causing a change in the dipole moment of the molecules. Some of the infrared radiation is transmitted by the sample, while some is absorbed. As a result, the vibrational energy levels of the sample molecules change from the ground state to the excited state. The resulting spectrum shows the transmission and absorption of the sample molecules and forms the molecular fingerprint of the sample. The absorption peak frequency determines the vibrational energy gap of the sample molecules and the absorption peak number corresponds to the vibrational freedom of the molecule. The absorption peak magnitude is a result of the probability of transition of energy levels and the 1043 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal variation of the dipole moment. Finally, the infrared beam enters the detector for the final measurement. The measured signal is digitized and sent to the computer for Fourier transformation. The final infrared spectrum is then presented to the user for interpretation and further manipulation (McNaught & Wilkinson, 1997). Materials and Methods The types of chemicals used in the thesis study and the purposes for which these chemicals were used are detailed in Table 3.1 of the study.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Modification of clinoptilolite further enhances the properties of naturally occurring clinoptilolite, allowing it to be used more effectively in various applications. In this thesis, NaCl solution is first prepared by following the steps below. Desulphurization of Crude Oil The desulphurization process of crude oil was carried out using NaCl modified clinoptilolite with different particle sizes. 50µ and 200 µ sized modified clinoptilolite was used at room temperature for two different times (20, 60), two different speeds (300, 500) and two different dosages. As a result of the processes, sulfur measurement and characterization analysis of a total of 16 samples were carried out. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) Structural analysis of petroleum-based products is carried out to obtain information on fraction identification, combustion characteristics and fuel efficiency as well as quality controls. It also affects the quality of marketable products derived from crude oil products. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy has the advantage of being able to record spectra for solid and liquid samples without any pre-treatment. This makes FT-IR/ATR particularly attractive for easy and rapid characterization of natural and synthetic products (Griffiths & De Haseth, 2007). In the thesis study, FTIR spectroscopic analysis of the crude oil sample was performed using a Perkin Elmer Spectrum 2 FTIR Spectrophotometer. Each spectrum was taken at wavenumbers of 4000-650 cmˉ¹ at a scan rate of 4 cmˉ¹ and the data were evaluated using the software. Conclusion and Recommendation This thesis study was carried out in two stages. In the first stage, it was aimed to increase the adsorption capacity by modifying clinoptilolite. In the second stage, desulfurization of untreated crude oil was carried out with the modified clinoptilolite. FT-IR device was used as a characterization method to analyze the samples before and after the desulfurization process. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) Crude oil samples were firstly identified before desulphurization and then 16 samples after desulphurization were identified in the instrument. As shown in Figure 4.1, alkanes and carbonyl groups were found in the sample at certain frequency ranges and various intensities. 1045 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal VİTAMİNİ B-12 VE İNSAN BAĞIRSAK MİKROBİYOMU İLİŞKİSİ Dyt. Mena AZİMİ Ondokuz Mayıs Üniversitesi, Lisanüstü Eğitim Enstitüsü, Beslenme Bilimleri, Samsun,Türkiye. Email:azimi.mena@gmail.com Doç. Dr. Mehtap ÜNLÜ SÖĞÜT Ondokuz Mayıs Üniversitesi, Lisanüstü Eğitim Enstitüsü, Beslenme Bilimleri, Samsun,Türkiye. Email:mehtap.sogut@omu.edu.tr Özet Vitamin B12, bazı besinlerde doğal olarak bulunan suda çözünebilen bir vitamindir. Kobalt minerali içeriğinden dolayı Vitamin B12 aktivitesine sahip bileşiklere topluca kobalamin adı verilmektedir. Vitamin B12 eksikliği insanları yaşam boyu etkileyen, hematolojik, nörolojik ve obstetrik sonuçları olan önemli bir halk sağlığı sorunudur. Yeni kanıtlar, Vitamin B12’nin bağırsak mikrobiyomunun bileşimi ve işlevi de dahil olmak üzere insan sağlığının diğer yönlerinde de önemli bir rol oynayabileceğini öne sürmektedir. Vitamin B12 bağırsakta pasif difüzyon ve reseptör aracılı endositoz yoluyla emilebilmektedir. Diyette hayvansal kaynaklı gıdaların tüketilmesiyle elde edilen Vitamin B12; yalnızca bakteriler tarafından sentezlemekte ve bağırsak emilimi bağırsak mikrobiyotasından etkilenebilmektedir. L.reuteri ve Enterococcus faecium gibi birçok bakterinin Vitamin B12 ürettiği rapor edilmiştir. Vitamin B12 üreten bakterilerin takviyesinin, gastrointestinal kanalda Vitamin B12’nin kullanımını artırabileceği varsayılmaktadır. Böyle bir hipotez, Vitamin B12 eksikliği olan diyetlerle beslenen farelerde kanıtlanmıştır. Vitamin B12 üreten bir suş olan L. reuteri CRL1098'in diyete eklenmesi ile Vitamin B12 eksikliği semptomlarının önlendiği ve bağırsak bakterilerinin Vitamin B12 eksikliğinde tedavi edici etkisi olduğu gösterilmiştir. Gastrointestinal sistem mikrobiyotasının yaklaşık %80'inin Vitamin B12 tüketicileri olduğu düşünülmektedir. Bu nedenle bakteriyel aşırı büyüme, eksojen Vitamin B12 için konakçıyla rekabet edebilir ve ardından biyoyararlanımı azaltabilir. İnce bağırsakta anaerobik bakteri çoğalmasının artması nedeniyle Vitamin B12 eksikliğinin ve buna bağlı semptomların ana nedenlerinden biri olduğu bilinmektedir. Bazı bağırsak bakterileri, bağırsak geçirgenliğini normalleştirerek Vitamin B12 emilimini arttırıcı ve inflamatuar bağırsak hastalığı üzerinde iyileştirici bir etki göstermiştir. Bazı çalışmalarda Vitamin B12; intestinal mikrobiyomun beta çeşitliliğindeki değişikliklerle ilişkilendirilmiş olup intestinal mikrobiyomunun bileşimini modüle edebileceğini öne sürmektedir. Bir veya daha fazla besin eksikliği nedeniyle tek karbon metabolizmasındaki değişiklikler, Vitamin B12 ile etkileşime girebilir ve intestinal mikrobiyomun kompozisyonunu ve işlevini etkileyebilir. İnsan intestinal mikrobiyomunun önerilen günlük Vitamin B12 alımının yaklaşık üçte birini üretebildiği tahmin edilmektedir. Vitamin B12 takviyesi, bağırsak mikrobiyomu ile etkileşimler yoluyla malabsorbsiyonun neden olduğu Vitamin B12 eksikliğini tedavi etmenin ötesinde gastrointestinal koşullar için faydalı olabilir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN VITAMIN B-12 AND THE HUMAN GUT MICROBIOME ABSTRACT Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin found naturally in some foods. Compounds with vitamin B12 activity due to their cobalt mineral content are collectively called cobalamin. Vitamin B12 deficiency is an important public health problem that affects people throughout life and has hematological, neurological, and obstetric consequences. New evidence suggests that vitamin B12 may also play an important role in other aspects of human health, including the composition and function of the gut microbiome. Vitamin B12 can be absorbed in the intestine by passive diffusion and receptor-mediated endocytosis. Vitamin B12 is obtained by consuming foods of animal origin in the diet. It is synthesized only by bacteria, and intestinal absorption can be affected by the intestinal microbiota. Many bacteria, such as L. reuteri and Enterococcus faecium, have been reported to produce vitamin B12. It is hypothesized that supplementation with vitamin B12-producing bacteria may increase the utilization of vitamin B12 in the gastrointestinal tract. Such a hypothesis has been proven in mice fed vitamin B12deficient diets. It has been shown that adding L. reuteri CRL1098, a vitamin B12-producing strain, to the diet prevents the symptoms of vitamin B12 deficiency and that intestinal bacteria have a therapeutic effect on vitamin B12 deficiency.Approximately 80% of the gastrointestinal tract microbiota is thought to be a consumer of vitamin B12. Therefore, bacterial overgrowth may compete with the host for exogenous vitamin B12 and subsequently reduce bioavailability. It is known to be one of the main causes of vitamin B12 deficiency and its associated symptoms due to increased anaerobic bacterial proliferation in the small intestine. Some intestinal bacteria have shown an ameliorating effect on vitamin B12 absorption and inflammatory bowel disease by normalizing intestinal permeability.In some studies, vitamin B12 has been associated with changes in the beta diversity of the intestinal microbiome, suggesting that it may modulate the composition of the intestinal microbiome. Changes in one-carbon metabolism due to one or more nutrient deficiencies may interact with vitamin B12 and affect the composition and function of the intestinal microbiome. It is estimated that the human intestinal microbiome can produce approximately one-third of the recommended daily intake of vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 supplementation may be beneficial for gastrointestinal conditions beyond treating vitamin B12 deficiency caused by malabsorption through interactions with the gut microbiome.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Vitaminler, vücudun fizyolojik işlevleri için gerekli olan, ancak vücut tarafından endojen olarak sentezlenmeyen ve bu nedenle diyetten alınması gereken bir grup organik bileşiklerdir. Toplamda insan vücudunun ihtiyaç duyduğu 13 adet vitamin bulunmaktadır. Bunların 4’ü yağda çözünen A,D,E ve K vitaminleriyken; 9’u suda çözünen C vitamini ve sekiz adet B vitamini grubunu içermektedir. B grubu vitaminleri arasında tiamin (B1) , riboflavin (B2), niasin (B3) , pantotenik asit (B5) , piridoksin (B6) , folat (B9) ve kobalamin (B12) vitaminleri yer almaktadır (1). B vitaminleri, çok sayıda enzim için vazgeçilmez kofaktörler olarak görev yapan veya konakçı metabolizmasına doğrudan katılan, hayati bir mikro besin grubunu temsil eder. Genel olarak, B vitaminleri tarafından üstlenilen çok sayıda fonksiyon genellikle enerji üretimine yol açan katabolik metabolizmadaki ve biyoaktif moleküllerin yapımı ve dönüşümüyle sonuçlanan anabolik metabolizmadaki rollerine bölünebilir (2). B 12 VİTAMİNİ B 12 vitamini vücuttaki tüm hücrelerin ihtiyaç duyduğu suda çözünebilen temel bir mikro besindir. Kobalamin, kırmızı kan hücrelerinin gelişimi, büyümesi ve sinir sistemleri için gereklidir. Günlük gereksinimler yaşa bağlıdır: yetişkinler ve bebekler için önerilen diyet miktarları sırasıyla 1,5 µg ve 0,4 µg'dır (3). B 12 vitamini terminal ileum da emilir. Bu emilim neredeyse tamamen mide mukozasında yer alan paryetal hücreler tarafından salgılanan bir glikoprotein olan intrinsik faktöre bağlıdır. İçsel faktör B 12 vitaminine bağlanır ve kompleks, transkobalamin adı verilen başka bir glikoproteine bağlı olarak hücre zarı boyunca taşınır. B 12 vitamini eksikliğinin en yaygın nedeni, mide kanseri riskini artıran bir durum olan otoimmün pernisiyöz anemidir. Pernisiyöz anemide parietal hücrelerin otoimmün yıkımından kaynaklanan intrinsik faktör eksikliği nedeniyle emilim bozulur. B 12 vitamini eksikliğinin diğer yaygın nedenleri arasında gastrektomi, ileal rezeksiyon, pankreas yetmezliği, Crohn hastalığı ve çölyak hastalığı dahil malabsorbsiyon sendromları yer alır. B 12 vitamini eksikliğinin daha az yaygın nedenleri arasında biguanidler (metformin), antiasitler (proton pompa inhibitörleri ve H2 reseptör antagonistleri), aminoglikozid, antibiyotikler ve kolşisinler gibi ilaçların kullanımı yer alır. Saf beslenme eksikliği nadirdir ve genellikle katı vegan beslenme şeklini benimsemiş kişilerde görülür (4). B 12 vitamini eksikliği kardiyovasküler hastalık için de bir risk faktörü olabilir (5). B 12 vitamini eksikliğinin tanısı temel olarak serum B 12 vitamini düzeyinin 200 pg/mL'den (148 pmol/L) düşük olduğu kan ölçümlerine dayanır ve metabolik göstergeler olan toplam homosistein ve metilmalonik asit düzeylerini içeren ikinci basamak testlerle tamamlanır (6). Dünya Sağlık Örgütü'ne (WHO) 1053 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal göre, yetişkinlerde B 12 vitamini durumu, mikro besin öğelerinin serum seviyeleri ile aşağıdaki kesme ve tanımlamalarla belirlenir: >221 pmol/L, “B 12 vitamini yeterliliğidir”; 148 ile 221 pmol/L arası "düşük B 12 vitamini seviyesi ", 148 pmol/L'den düşük ise "B 12 vitamini eksikliği"dir (7). B 12 vitamini yalnızca mikroorganizmalar tarafından sentezlenir ve et ve süt ürünleri de dahil olmak üzere hayvansal kaynaklı gıdaların tüketilmesi yoluyla diyetle elde edilir. Birçok çalışmada, kaynakların sınırlı olduğu ortamlarda, özellikle de diyette hayvansal ürün alımının düşük olduğu popülasyonlarda, B 12 vitamini seviyesinin düşük olduğunu belirtilmiştir (8). B 12 VİTAMİNİ METABOLİZMASI B 12 vitamini et, yumurta ve süt ürünleri gibi besin kaynaklarından elde edilir. Günlük yaklaşık 2,4 μg B 12 vitamini tüketiminde yalnızca %50-60'ı emilir. İnsan gastrointestinal (bağırsak) mikrobiyomunda bulunan bakteriler, B 12 vitaminini sentezler ve konakçıdan emilmemiş B 12 vitaminini kullanır ancak B 12 vitamininin bağırsak mikrobiyomu üzerindeki etkisi büyük ölçüde keşfedilmemiş durumdadır. İleumda 1 µg oral dozda B 12 vitamininin yaklaşık %50'si emilir ve artan dozla birlikte emilim oranı azalır. İleumda emilmeyen B 12 vitamini kalın bağırsağa ulaşabilir; burada bağırsak bakterileri metabolize olur ve B 12 vitamininin ~%80'ini B 12 vitamini analoglarına (yani bilinen B 12 vitamini aktivitesi olmayan kobamidlere) dönüştürürler. B 12 vitaminini (ve B 12 vitamini analoglarını) kullanma yeteneği, bazı bakteriler için rekabet avantajı olabilir. Ayrıca, bağırsak mikrobiyotasının bileşimi ve işlevi, B 12 vitamini açısından zengin olan ortamlarda, B 12 vitamininin yetersiz olduğu ortamlara göre farklılık gösterebilir (9). Diyetteki B 12 vitamini, gıda proteinleriyle birlikte bulunur ve ince bağırsakta emilimi kolaylaştırmak için mide lümeni içindeki düşük pH'a maruz kaldığında salınması gerekir. B 12 vitamini serbest kaldıktan sonra haptokorrin (transkobalamin I) ile bağlanır ve duodenumdaki kompleksin proteolitik bölünmesine kadar bağlı kalır. Burada mide mukozasının paryetal hücreleri tarafından sentezlenen ikinci bir taşıyıcı protein olan intrinsik faktörün (IF) bağlanması gerçekleşir. Terminal ileumda B 12 vitamininin alımı için IF gereklidir. Fırça kenarını geçerken B 12 vitamini IF'den ayrışır ve transkobalamin II veya haptokorrin'i bağlayacağı dolaşıma girer. Transkobalamin II ve haptokorrin, kobalaminin sırasıyla periferik dokulara ve karaciğere verilmesinden sorumludur. Emilimi takiben büyük miktarda B 12 vitamini karaciğerde depolanır; sonuç olarak B 12 vitamini alımındaki herhangi bir azalmanın klinik olarak kendini göstermesi 5-10 yılı bulabilir. Serbest B 12 vitamininin küçük bir kısmı (%1-5) bağırsaktan intrinsik faktörden (IF) bağımsız bir süreçte pasif difüzyonla emilir (10). 1054 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal BAĞIRSAK MİKROBİYOTASI Mikrobiyom, genellikle insan/hayvan vücudunda veya derisinde yaşayan/yaşayan çeşitli mikroorganizmaların topluluğunu ifade eden bir terimdir. Trilyonlarca komensal, simbiyotik ve hatta patojen mikroorganizmayı içeren karmaşık bir ekosistemi oluşturur. Mikrobiyom çeşitli bakterilerden, arkelerden, mantarlardan, protozoalardan ve hatta virüslerden meydana gelir. Sağlıklı insanların bağırsağından en az 800 farklı bakteri türü izole edilebilmiştir. Dış çevre, beslenme ve yaşam tarzı, mikrobiyomun kompozisyonunu ve canlılığını etkileyen başlıca belirleyicilerdir. Son araştırmalar mikrobiyomun sağlık ve hastalık üzerindeki muazzam etkisini göstermiştir. Sayıları, yapıları, çeşitleri ve yaşayabilirlikleri dinamiktir. Tüm bu unsurlar birçok sağlık bozukluğunun ortaya çıkmasından, gelişmesinden ve tedavisinden sorumludur. Kanser, metabolik bozukluklar, kalp-damar hastalıkları gibi ciddi hastalıklar ve hatta şizofreni gibi psikolojik bozukluklar da mikrobiyotadan doğrudan veya dolaylı olarak etkilenmektedir. Sağlığımıza etkileri ancak insan kaynaklı hücrelerin insan vücudundaki toplam canlı hücre sayısının yalnızca %10'unu oluşturduğunu bildiğimizde anlaşılabilir. Karşılaştırıldığında, mikrobiyota hücrelerin kalan %90'ını temsil eder. Benzer şekilde, vücudumuzdaki toplam benzersiz genlerin yalnızca %1'i insan kökenlidir ve geri kalan %99'u bağırsak ve ağız boşluğu mikrobiyotasına aittir. Bu nedenle insan mikrobiyomu ikinci genomumuz olarak kabul edilir. Mikrobiyota bağırsağın yanı sıra ağız boşluğu, burun delikleri, vajina, göğüs ve deride de kolonize olabilir. Bebeklerin GİS kanalının mikrobiyal içeriği, bifidobakterilerin hakim olduğu basit yapılı bir bileşime sahiptir. Çeşitli bakteri türlerinin bileşimi ve yaygınlığı, hamilelik sırasında annenin beslenmesi, doğum şekli (normal doğum vs. sezaryen) ve beslenme şekli (emzirme vs. süt ikameleri) gibi birçok faktörden etkilenir. Ancak mikrobiyomun bileşimi yaşla birlikte sürekli olarak değişmektedir. Mikrobiyal yapı, yaş, diyet, yaşam tarzı, obezite gibi metabolik hastalıklar ve çevresel etkileyici faktörlere bağlı olarak değişmektedir (11). BAĞIRSAK MİKROİYOTASI VE B 12 VİTAMİNİ Mikro besinler olarak adlandırılan vitaminler ve mineraller insan sağlığı için çok önemlidir. Mikro besinler, bağışıklık ve enerji fonksiyonlarının yanı sıra büyüme, kemik sağlığı, sıvı dengesi ve diğer biyolojik süreçler gibi temel biyosentetik hücresel reaksiyonların düzenleyicileridir. Mikro besin eksikliği, özellikle çocuklarda zayıf fiziksel veya zihinsel gelişime aynı zamanda patojen enfeksiyonlara, inflamatuar hastalıklara karşı duyarlılığın artmasına neden olan ciddi sağlık sorunlarıyla ilişkili olduğundan küresel bir sağlık sorunu olarak kabul edilmektedir (12). İnsanlar gerekli tüm mikro besinleri sentezleyemez; bu nedenle 1055 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal bunların (i) diyet bileşenleri, (ii) oral takviyeler veya (iii) ortak bağırsak bakterileri tarafından sentezi olmak üzere üç ana kaynaktan ekzojen olarak elde edilmesi gerekir. Nüfusun büyük bir yüzdesi önerilen mikro besin alımlarını karşılayamadığından, mikro besinlerin ağızdan takviyesi ve gıda takviye programları dünya çapında uygulanmıştır. Etkinliğine ve olumlu etkilerine rağmen, son zamanlarda önemli sayıda çalışma, bazı mikro besin takviyelerinin sağlık üzerindeki olumsuz sonuçlarına ilişkin ciddi kaygıları gündeme getirmiştir (13). Örneğin folik asit (B9 vitamini) takviyesi, bağırsakta emilimin bozulmasından kaynaklanan çinko eksikliği , B 12 (kobalamin) eksikliğinin belirtilerini maskelemedeki rolü nedeniyle nörolojik hasar ve kolorektal kanser riskinin artması gibi olumsuz sağlık sonuçlarıyla ilişkilendirilmiştir (14). Mikro besin biyoyararlılığı, vücutta kullanım ve depolama için mevcut olan bir mikro besin maddesinin fraksiyonudur. Mikro besinler çeşitli ve bazı durumlarda hem pasif hem de aktif olabilen spesifik emilim yolları ve mekanizmalarını kullanır. Örneğin, hem C vitamininin hem de B7 vitamininin (biyotin) emilimine Na+'ya bağımlı taşıyıcılar aracılık eder ve B9 vitamini (folat) folata özgü üç taşıyıcı kullanır (15). Kommensal bağırsak bakterileri, konakçılarına gerekli besin maddelerini sağlar ve mikro besin maddelerini elde etmek için en az araştırılan kaynaktır. Bağırsak mikrobiyotası, çeşitli bileşikleri faydalı veya zararlı metabolitlere dönüştüren, dolayısıyla bunların biyoyararlılığında önemli bir role sahip olan, insan bağırsak sisteminde etkili bir biyoreaktör olarak kabul edilir. Mikrobiyom araştırmalarındaki birçok çaba, mikrobiyomu sağlığı iyileştirmek amacıyla modüle etmek için etkili araçlar keşfetmeye yönelik olmasına rağmen, bağırsak mikroorganizmalarının mikro besinlerin biyosentezi , alımı, emilimi ve biyoyararlanımına katkısı daha az araştırılmıştır (16). Mikro besin-mikrobiyom ekseni çift yönlüdür. Bir yandan bağırsaktaki mikroorganizmalar, büyümeleri ve işleyişleri için mikro besinlerin tüketicileridir. Konakçının beslenmesi ve mikro besin takviyesi, bağırsak mikrobiyotasının kompozisyonunu ve fonksiyonunu büyük ölçüde etkiler. Özellikle A vitamini, C vitamini, B 12 vitamini ve D vitamini takviyesi Bifidobacterium'dan çeşitli faydalı türlerin kolonizasyonunu teşvik ederek bağırsak mikrobiyotasının bileşimindeki Lactobacillus ve Roseburia cinslerinde değişikliklere katkıda bulunur. Mineral eksikliğinin veya takviyesinin bağırsak mikrobiyotası üzerindeki etkisinin değerlendirilmesi yeni ortaya çıkan bir alandır (17). Öte yandan bağırsak mikrobiyotası, başta K vitamini ve B grubu vitaminleri olmak üzere çok çeşitli vitaminleri önemli miktarlarda üreterek demir, kalsiyum gibi minerallerin alımını ve emilimini kolaylaştırır (18). 1056 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Magnusdottir ve ark., sekiz B vitamini (biyotin, kobalamin, folat, niasin, pantotenat, piridoksin, riboflavin ve tiamin) için biyosentetik yolların varlığı açısından 256 yaygın bağırsak bakterisinin genomlarını sistematik olarak araştırmışlardır. Her bir vitaminin potansiyel üreticilerini içeren her filumun oranını tahmin etmeye olanak sağlayan bu çalışma sonucunda bazı genomların bu vitaminlerin tüm biyosentetik yollarını içerdiği, bazılarının ise hiçbirini içermediği belirlenmiştir. En yaygın olarak sentezlenen vitaminlerin riboflavin (166 potansiyel üretici) ve niasin (162 üretici) olduğu saptanmıştır. Riboflavin ve biyotin için, Bacteroidetes, Fusobacteria ve Proteobacteria filumlarındaki mikroorganizmaların neredeyse tamamı gerekli yolaklara sahipken Firmicutes ve Actinobacteria'ların ise çok daha küçük bir kısmının B vitamini biyosentezi potansiyeline sahip olduğu görülmüştür. B 12 vitamini örneğinde, tüm Fusobakterilerin, diğer dört filumun %10-50'sinin üretici olduğu tahmin edilmiştir. Genel olarak Bacteroidetes'in, en fazla B vitamini üreticisine sahip şube olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır (19). Bacteroides , Enterococcus ve Bifidobacterium türleri, K vitamini ve suda çözünen B vitaminlerinin çoğunu de novo olarak sentezleyebilir. İntestinal mikrobiyota bakterilerinin B vitamini üretimi için in silico biyosentetik kapasitesinin değerlendirildiği çalışmada bu vitaminlerin %40-65'inin incelenen intestinal mikroorganizmalar tarafından üretildiği gösterilmiştir. Bununla birlikte, konakçıya ulaşabilmek için, mikro besinlerin bakteriyel de novo sentezinin, kendilerine ayrılmış bağırsak emilim bölgesinin yukarısında gerçekleşmesi gerekmektedir. Örneğin, kobalamin yalnızca ileumda emildiğinden, B 12 üreten kolonik bakterilerin , kemirgenlerde ve insan olmayan primatlarda görülen koprofaji durumu dışında, bu vitaminin konakçı için biyoyararlanımını artırmaya katkıda bulunmaları olası değildir (20). Son in vivo çalışmalar ve klinik deneyler, mikrobiyotanın konakçının vitamin dengesindeki rolüne ışık tutmaktadır (Tablo 1). C. elegans kullanılarak Escherichia coli'nin, parçalanma ürününün (PABA-glu) alımı yoluyla ve tetrahidrofolatın de novo sentezi yoluyla biyoyararlılığını artırarak B9 vitamininin (folik asit) metabolizmasına yardımcı olduğu gösterilmiştir. Ek olarak E. coli, tonB siderofor yoluyla eksojen B 12 vitaminini (kobalamin) temizleyerek konakçı için vazgeçilmez bir B 12 vitamini kanalı görevi görebilir (21). 1057 VI.

(2018) ve B 12 TAKVİYESİ İLE ALFA – BETA ÇEŞİTLİLİĞİ VE BAKTERİ BOLLUĞU B 12 vitamin takviyesinin alfa ve beta çeşitliliğine etkisini araştıran in vitro çalışmalar Tablo 2 de gösterilmiştir. In vitro çalışmalardan elde edilen bulgular, B 12 vitamini takviyesinin alfa çeşitliliğini artırabileceğini ve sonuçların uygulanan kobalaminin formuna, dozuna ve ortak müdahalelere göre değiştiğini göstermektedir. Adenosilkobalaminin, siyanokobalamin ile karşılaştırıldığında alfa çeşitliliğinin artmasına neden olduğu, ancak her ikisi de alfalaktalbumin ile birleştirildiğinde çeşitliliğin daha düşük olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Aynı zamanda kolon modelinde kobalamin takviyesinin Firmicutes ve Bacteroidetes'in göreceli bolluğunu artırdığı, Proteobakteriler ve Pseudomonasi azalttığı belirtilmiştir (22). Peynir altı suyu proteinleri ile kombinasyon halinde siyanokobalamin veya adenosilkobalamin, tek başına betalaktoglobulin ile karşılaştırıldığında alfa çeşitliliğinin artmasına neden olmuş, ancak tek başına alfa-laktalbümin ile sonuçlanmamıştır. 7 günlük metilkobalamin takviyesinden sonra, Acinetobacter oranında artış ve Bacteroides, Enterobacteriaceae, Ruminococcaceae oranında azalma gözlemlenmiştir (23). Farklı bir çalışmada, metilkobalamin, siyanokobalamin ve kontrol gruplarıyla karşılaştırıldığında, Chao1'e (zenginliğin ölçümü) dayalı olarak daha düşük alfa çeşitliliğe, ancak Shannon indeksine (zenginlik ve düzgünlüğün ölçümü) dayalı olarak daha yüksek çeşitliliğe neden olduğu belirlenmiştir. Siyanokobalamin grubu, kontrol grubuyla karşılaştırıldığında ise benzer bir Chao1 indeksine ancak kontrol grubuyla karşılaştırıldığında Shannon indeksine göre daha yüksek çeşitliliğe sahip olduğu gözlemlenmiştir (24). Üç in vitro çalışmada beta çeşitliliğinde değişiklikler bildirilmiştir: bulgular B 12 vitamininin mikrobiyom 1058 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal kompozisyonunu değiştirdiği yönündedir. Peynir altı suyu proteini çalışmasında, temel bileşen analizleri (PCA) hiyerarşik kümelemeye dayalı olarak bu inceleme için ilgili verileri sağlamasa da, tek başına alfa-laktalbumin ve beta-laktoglobulin ile kombinasyon halinde siyanokobalamin alan grupların bir arada kümelendiği ortaya çıkmıştır. Başka bir çalışmada, düşük dozda siyanokobalamin takviyesi ve yüksek dozda siyanokobalaminle zenginleştirilmiş ıspanak alan grupların, PCA grafiklerine göre başlangıçtan ve diğer gruplardan daha uzakta kümelendiği görülmüştür (24). Aynı çalışmalarda B 12 vitamini takviyesi ile göreceli bakteri bolluğu arasındaki ilişkiler bildirilmiştir. Filum düzeyinde, tek başına adenosilkobalamin veya siyanokobalamin takviyesi, tek başına peynir altı suyu proteini veya B 12 vitamini ile kombinasyon halinde peynir altı suyu proteini alan çoğu grupla karşılaştırıldığında daha yüksek Bacteroidetes:Firmicutes oranlarıyla sonuçlanmış, ancak B 12 vitamininin 2 formu birinden önemli ölçüde farklı olmadığı belirlenmiştir. Peynir altı suyu proteini ile kombinasyon halinde siyanokobalamin veya adenosilkobalamin alan gruplardaki Bacteroidetes:Firmicutes oranının birbirinden veya tek başına peynir altı suyu proteininden farklı olmadığı bildirilmiştir. Başka bir çalışma, 3 ana şubenin göreceli bolluğunda grup içi değişiklikler olduğu; çoğu grupta siyanokobalamin takviyesi veya siyanokobalaminle zenginleştirilmiş ıspanağın Proteobakterileri artırdığı ve Firmicutes ve Bacteroidetes'i azalttığı belirtilmiştir. Ancak düşük doz siyanokobalamin ile zenginleştirilmiş ıspanak grubunda Proteobakterilerin azaldığı, Firmicutesin değişmediği ve yüksek doz siyanokobalamin ile zenginleştirilmiş ıspanak grubunda Bacteroidetesin değişmediği tespit edilmiştir (22, 23, 24).Hayvanlarda yapılan çalışmalarda alfa çeşitlilik açısından heterojen sonuçlar bildirilmiştir. Farelerde kontrol grubuyla karşılaştırıldığında siyanokobalamin alan grupta alfa çeşitliliğin (Chao1, Shannon indeksi, Simpson indeksi) önemli ölçüde farklı olmadığı bildirilmiştir (25). Farelerde yapılan başka bir çalışmada, Chao1 ve Shannon endekslerine dayalı alfa çeşitlilik, siyanokobalamin dozuna (yem peletlerinde 0 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg veya 200 mg/kg) göre önemli ölçüde farklılık göstermemiştir (26). Diğer bir çalışmada, istatistiksel anlamlılık bildirilmemesine rağmen, kontrol grubuyla karşılaştırıldığında siyanokobalamin ve metilkobalamin gruplarında alfa çeşitliliğinin (Chao1, Shannon indeksi) daha düşük olduğu rapor edilmiştir (27). Kazlar üzerinde yapılan çalışmada yüksek, orta ve düşük dozda B 12 takviyesine ek olarak yüksek ve düşük dozda folik asit takviyesi verilen iki grup karşılaştırılmıştır. B 12 vitamininin 0,018 mg/kg dozu ile kıyaslandığında, düşük (0,009 mg/kg) ila yüksek (0,036 mg/kg) B 12 vitamini dozları arasında Simpson ve Shannon endekslerine göre çeşitliliğin arttığı belirlenmiştir (28). Aynı çalışmalarda farelerdeki beta çeşitliliği de değerlendirilmiştir. Siyanokobalamin takviyesi 1059 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal öncesinde ve sonrasında cins düzeyinde ve siyanokobalamin ile kontrol grupları arasında önemli ölçüde fark saptanmıştır (25). Bunun tersine, farelerde yapılan diğer çalışmada beta çeşitliliğinde B 12 vitamini müdahalesiyle farklılık gözlenmemiştir (26). B 12 vitamini ve folik asit alan kazlar arasında, beta çeşitlilikte temel koordinat analizinde (PCoA) ve aritmetik ortalamalı ağırlıksız çift grup yönteminde (UPGMA), orta dozda B 12 vitamini alan grupların, gruplardan daha uzakta kümelendiği görülmüştür (28). Filum düzeyinde bakteri bolluğu değerlendirildiğinde, metilkobalamin ile karşılaştırıldığında siyanokobalamin alan farelerde Bacteroidetes ve Proteobacteria'nın göreceli bolluğunun daha yüksek, Firmicutesin ise daha düşük olduğu belirlenmiştir. Her iki kobalamin takviyesi alan grupta kontrol grubuyla karşılaştırıldığında daha düşük Bacteroidetes ve daha yüksek Firmicutes bolluğu gözlenmiştir (27). 1060 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Bağırsak mikrobiyotası bakterileri B 12 vitamininin ya üreticisi ya da tüketicisidir. Üstelik B 12 vitamininin bağırsaktan emilimi bağırsak mikrobiyotasından etkilenebilir. L. reuteri ve Enterococcus faecium gibi birçok bakterinin B 12 vitamini üreticisi olduğu rapor edilmiştir (29). B 12 vitamini üreten bakteri takviyesinin gastrointestinal kanalda B 12 vitamini kullanımını artırabileceği varsayılmaktadır. Böyle bir varsayım, B 12 vitamini eksikliği olan diyetlerle beslenen farelerde kanıtlanmıştır. B 12 vitamini üreten bir suş olan L. reuteri CRL1098'in takviyesinin, B 12 vitamini eksikliği belirtilerini önlediği, bu da bağırsak bakterilerinin B 12 vitamini eksikliğinde terapötik etkisini olabileceğini ortaya koymuştur (30). Bununla birlikte, bakteriler gerekli taşıyıcıların bulunmadığı kolonda kolonileşirse bu faydalı etkiler sınırlı olabilir. B 12 vitamini eksikliğine yönelik probiyotik tedavisi geliştirmek için bakteri kolonizasyonunun konumu dikkate alınmalıdır. Gastrointestinal sistemdeki mikrobiyotanın yaklaşık %80'inin B 12 vitamini tüketicileri olduğu düşünülmektedir (31). Bu nedenle, bakterilerin aşırı çoğalması, konakçıları ile eksojen B 12 vitamini ile rekabete girebilir ve ardından biyoyararlanımı azaltabilir. İnce bağırsakta bakteriyel aşırı çoğalmada, artan anaerobez nedeniyle B 12 vitamini tüketimi, B 12 vitamini eksikliği semptomlarının önemli bir nedeni olarak kabul edilmektedir. B 12 vitamini tüketen bakterilerin bolluğunun azaltılması, B 12 vitamini eksikliğine fayda sağlar. Örneğin, Lactobacillus'un günlük probiyotik tedavisi, hem bakteriyel aşırı çoğalma hem de B 12 vitamini emilimi üzerinde faydalı bir etki göstermiştir. Dolayısıyla bu probiyotik tedavisinin, B 12 vitamini tüketen bakterilerin aşırı çoğalmasını engelleyerek B 12 vitamini eksikliğini iyileştirebileceği düşünülmektedir (32). B 12 vitamininin üretimi veya tüketiminin yanı sıra bağırsak mikrobiyotası, emilimle ilişkili fizyolojik faktörler üzerinde etki yaparak B 12 vitamininin biyoyararlanımını dolaylı olarak değiştirebilir. Asit salgısının veya enzim içeriğinin azalmasıyla ilişkili gastrointestinal hastalıklar, B 12 vitamininin gıdalardan salınmasını veya B 12 vitamininin içsel faktörlere çevrilmesini engelleyebilir. Anormal bağırsak geçirgenliği ile karakterize edilen İnflamatuar bağırsak hastalığında (IBD) B 12 vitamini emiliminde azalma da gözlenir (33). Bir probiyotik olarak Lacidofil tedavisi, H. pylori ile enfekte olmuş Moğol gerbillerinde mide asidi salgısını önemli ölçüde iyileştirmiş ve bu da gıdalardan B 12 vitamininin salınmasına yol açmıştır (34). Bazı bağırsak bakterileri ayrıca bağırsak geçirgenliğini normalleştirerek B 12 vitamininin emilimini artırarak IBD üzerinde remisyon etkisi de göstermiştir. Ayrıca bağırsak mikrobiyotası ile konakçı arasındaki aşırı rekabet, B 12 vitamininin biyoyararlılığına müdahale edebilir. Örneğin Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron , BtuG adı verilen, B 12 vitamini taşınması için yüzeye maruz kalan temel bir lipoproteini eksprese eder. BtuG'nin daha yüksek bağlanma 1064 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal afinitesi, B 12 vitaminini içsel faktörlerden uzaklaştırabilir ve B 12 vitamini emilimini azaltabilir (35). B 12 vitamini, nükleotid sentezi, amino asit metabolizması, karbon ve nitrojen metabolizması ve ikincil metabolit sentezi için insan bağırsak mikroorganizmalarındaki çeşitli enzimlerin kritik bir kofaktörü olarak görev yapar. B 12 vitamininin biyosentezi yaklaşık 30 enzim aracılı adımı içerir ve bakterilerin yalnızca küçük bir kısmı bu vitamini üretebilir. Bağırsak bakterilerinin çoğu, ileumdaki emilimden kaçan ve kalın bağırsağa ulaşan B 12 vitaminini kullanır. B 12 vitamininin bağırsak mikrobiyotasındaki rekabeti bunların büyümesini, kolonizasyonunu ve metabolik süreçlerini etkileyebilir (36). Kolon modeli üzerinde yapılan in vitro çalışma, B 12 vitamini takviyesinin α çeşitliliği artırabileceğini, ancak sonuçların uygulanan kobalaminin formuna ve dozuna bağlı olduğunu öne sürülmüştür. Başka bir in vitro çalışmada, metilkobalamin takviyesi sonrasında α çeşitliliği azalırken, siyanokobalamin tedavi grubunda bu azalma gözlenmemiştir (37). Bir çalışmada, siyanokobalamin takviyesinin α çeşitliliğinde bir artışa neden olduğunu ve cins düzeyinde β çeşitliliğinde önemli bir farklılık ortaya çıkardığı öne sürülmüştür (38). Ancak bu sonucu desteklemeyen çalışmalarda mevcuttur (39). Farelerde yapılan çalışmalarda, B 12 vitamini takviyesi ile göreceli bakteri bolluğu arasındaki ilişkiler de rapor edilmiştir (40). Metilkobalamin ile karşılaştırıldığında, siyanokobalamin tedavisinin farelerde daha yüksek Bacteroidetes ve Proteobakteri seviyeleri ve daha düşük Firmicutes seviyelerine yolaçtığı gözlenmiştir. İnsanlarda B 12 vitamini alımı Proteobakterilerin ve Verrucomicrobia'nın oranını artırabilir ve Bacteroidetes'in bolluğunu azaltabilir. Ancak bazı klinik çalışmalarda, B 12 vitamini alımının bakteri bolluğu üzerinde hiçbir etkisinin olmadığı da ileri sürülmektedir (41). SONUÇ B 12 vitamini insanlar için gerekli mikro besin maddeleri olarak işlev görür. Çoklu diyet B 12 vitamininin emilim süreci, genellikle ince bağırsakta meydana gelen birçok taşıyıcının yardımını gerektirir. Aynı zamanda bağırsak mikrobiyotası, bağırsaktaki B 12 vitamini takviyesini değiştirmek için yalnızca üretici ve/veya tüketici olarak hareket etmez fakat aynı zamanda gastrointestinal sistemin fizyolojik veya patolojik faktörlerini değiştirerek B 12 vitamininin emilimini de etkiler. Çoklu enzimlerin kofaktörleri olan B 12 vitamini takviyesi, bağırsak mikrobiyotasının çeşitliliğini, bolluğunu ve fonksiyonlarını değiştirebilir. B 12 vitamini ile bağırsak mikrobiyotası arasındaki etkileşimi anlamak, B 12 vitamini eksikliğini önlememize yardımcı olabilir ve daha da önemlisi probiyotiklerin insan sağlığı üzerindeki faydalı potansiyelini fark etmemizi sağlayabilir. 1065 VI.

Yüksek sıcaklıkta uzun sürede alaşımın yüzeyinde kimyasal bozunumun ve oksidasyonun ortaya çıkması alaşımın yapısal bütünlüğünü yitirerek erken ömürde hasarlanmasına neden olmaktadır. Geçmişten günümüze süperalaşımlara uygulanan yüzey işlemleri ile malzemenin oksidasyon direncinin arttırılması ve böylece malzemelerin daha uzun ömürde çalıştırılması mümkündür. Bu çalışmada, Inconel 625 alaşım yüzeyine 700°C sıcaklıkta farklı sürelerde (2, 4 ve 6 saat) termo-reaktif difüzyon kaplamalar yapılarak farklı kalınlıkta aluminid tabakalar elde edilmiştir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal METALLURGICAL AND MECHANICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF ALUMINIDE COATED INCONEL 625 ALLOY BY THERMO-REACTIVE DIFFUSION METHOD Abstract Nickel-based superalloys are preferably used in the manufacturing of many engine components due to their excellent corrosion resistance and strength at high temperatures. The occurrence of chemical decomposition and oxidation on the surface of the alloy at high temperatures over a long period of time causes the alloy to lose its structural integrity and be failed in early life. With the surface treatments applied to superalloys from past to present, it is possible to increase the oxidation resistance of the material and thus make the materials last longer. In this study, aluminide layers of different thicknesses are obtained by applying thermo-reactive diffusion coatings to the Inconel 625 alloy surface at 700°C for different periods of time (2, 4 and 6 h). The metallurgical formations occurring on the aluminide-coated superalloy surface and crosssection after the process are characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersion spectrometer and x-ray diffractometer. Metallurgical characterization studies show that (i) various Ni-Al phases (NiAl, Ni2Al3, NiAl3) can form on the processed alloy surface, (ii) these phases show a denser distribution on the surface with increasing process time, and (iii) the aluminide layer thickness increases depending on the increasing process time. With the aluminide layer, a higher hardness value is reached on the surface compared to the nickel-based alloy. The successful formation of a continuous, homogeneous thick and hard aluminide layer on the surface made it possible to obtain preliminary data for studies on high temperature oxidation of the alloy. Keywords: Inconel 625, thermo-reactive coating, characterization. 1071 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Geçmişten günümüze teknolojinin gelişimi ile yüksek sıcaklık malzemelerine ihtiyacın ortaya çıkması ile süperalaşımlar geliştirilmiştir. Türbin motorları, petro-kimya, ısı aktarım elemanları ve reaktörler söz konusu iken yüksek sıcaklık malzemeleri çoğunlukla kullanılmaktadır (Liu vd., 2023; De Oliveira vd., 2019). Kompozisyonel bir yaklaşımla süperalaşımları kobalt (Co), nikel (Ni) ve nikel-demir (Ni-Fe) esaslı olmak üzere üç ana gruba ayırmak mümkündür. Nikel esaslı süperalaşımların yapısı birçok alaşıma göre daha karmaşık olup, mikroyapısında gama prime (γ′), gama double prime (γ′′), eta (η), sigma (σ), mü (μ), R, Laves, TSP (topolojik sıkı paket) fazları ve çeşitli alaşım karbürleri bulunabilmektedir (Gencay, 2021; Campbell, 2006; Selvaraj vd., 2021).Çalışma koşullarında yüksek sıcaklığa maruz kalan malzemelerde zamanla oksidasyon, sülfürizasyon, sıcak korozyon, erozyonlu korozyon ve benzeri hasar mekanizmaları görülmektedir (Selvaraj vd., 2021, Jamnapara vd., 2016). Bu sebeple malzemelerin yüzey ve kimyasal özelliklerini geliştirmek için birçok konvansiyonel ve ileri yüzey modifikasyon yöntemleri geliştirilmiştir. Bu yöntemler arasında termo-reaktif difüzyon kaplama prosesi düşük maliyetle karmaşık geometrili parçaların kaplanmasına olanak sağlanmaktadır. Ayrıca bu yöntem ile kuvvetli adhezif kaplamalar elde edilebilmektedir (Adamniak vd., 2016; Tong vd., 2010). Termo-reaktif difüzyon kaplama yönteminde altlık malzemenin yüzeyine aluminid kaplanabilmekte ve özellikle nikel esaslı süperalaşımların yüzeylerinde aluminyumca zengin Ni-Al fazları (NiAl, Ni2Al3, NiAl3) oluşmaktadır (Tong vd., 2010; Goward vd., 1988; Zielińska vd., 2011). Yapılan çalışmalar, nikel esaslı malzeme yüzeyinde oluşturulan aluminid tabakanın altlık malzemeye kıyasla yüksek sıcaklık oksidasyon direncini, aşınma direncini ve sertlik değerini arttırdığını göstermiştir (Atapek vd., 2023; Khalid vd., 2002; Bölükbaşı vd., 2023). Döleker ve arkadaşları, kutu sementasyon yöntemi ile 600°C ve 700°C sıcaklıkta, 3 ve 5 saat süre boyunca Inconel 718 altlık malzeme üzerine aluminid kaplama yaparak 700 °C sıcaklıkta ve 5 saat süre boyunca yapılan kaplama prosesi sonucunda altlık malzemenin sertlik değerini (260 HV) yüzeyde 900 HV seviyesine kadar arttırabilmiştir. Ayrıca aluminid kaplanmış numunenin işlem görmemiş numuneye kıyasla oksidasyon ve aşınma direncinin de eş zamanlı arttırılabildiği raporlanmıştır (Döleker vd., 2021).Bu çalışmada kutu sementasyon yöntemi ile nikel esaslı Inconel 625 alaşımı üzerine 700°C sıcaklıkta 2, 4 ve 6 saat boyunca termo-reaktif difüzyon kaplama gerçekleştirilmiştir. Proseslenen numunelerin kesit ve yüzeylerinde metalurjik analizler yapılarak yüzey sertliğinde prosese özgü değişimler izlenmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular homojen kaplamalar ile altlık malzemeye kıyasla daha sert tabakaların başarılı bir şekilde oluşabildiğini ortaya koymuştur. 1072 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Materyal ve Metod Bu çalışmada, normalize edilmiş Inconel 625 alaşımına (21.24 Cr, 9.38 Mo, 3.56 Nb+Ta, ağ.%) farklı sürelerde termo-reaktif difüzyon koşullarının sağlanması ile aluminid kaplama işlemi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu işlem için öncelikle, plaka halinde bulunan Inconel 625 alaşımından hassas kesme (Mikrotest Multicut Sense) ile 10x10x2 mm boyutlarında numuneler elde edilmiştir. Numuneler 320, 600, 1000 ve 2500, 4000 mesh’lik zımparalar ile kaba zımparalanmıştır. Sonrasında 3 μm ve 1 μm elmas solüsyon ile parlatma işlemi yapılarak yüzey pürüzlülüğü indirgenmiştir. Metalografik işlem sonrası numunelerin ağırlıkları hassas terazi ile tartılıp kaplama öncesi ve sonrası ağırlıklar takip edilmiştir. Aluminid kaplanma işleminde, aluminyum kaynağı olarak saf Al (40-45 μm), inert malzeme olarak alumina (< 1 μm) ve aktivatör olarak NH4Cl tozları kullanılmıştır. Kaplama işleminde öncelikle toz karışımı (40 Al + 10 NH4Cl + 50 Al2O3 ağ.-%) hazırlanmış olup mini rotor ile 2 saat mekanik olarak karıştırılmıştır. Toz karışımı hazırlandıktan sonra numuneler karışımın içine gömülerek 700°C sıcaklıkta 2, 4 ve 6 saat sürelerde proseslenmiştir. Yüzeyleri aluminid kaplanmış numunelerin yüzeyleri ve kesitleri, ışık mikroskobu (IM, Olympus BX41M-LED), taramaları elektron mikroskobu (SEM, Jeol JSM 6060), enerji dağılımlı x-ışın spektrometresi (EDS, IXRF) ve xışını difraktometresi (XRD, Rigaku Ultima+) ile karakterize edilmiştir. XRD analizi için CuKα radyasyonu kullanılmış ve tarama hızı 1.0 °/dak. olarak seçilmiştir. Kaplamalar sonrasında yüzey sertliğinde oluşan değişim ise Vickers sertlik cihazı (EmcoTest Durascan-70 G5) kullanılarak 10 g yüklenme koşulunda takip edilmiştir. Bulgular ve Tartışma Inconel 625 alaşımına 700°C sıcaklıkta 2, 4 ve 6 saat süreyle uygulanmış olan aluminid kaplama prosesi sonrası kaplama kesitleri IM ile incelenmiş ve tabaka kalınlıkları ölçülerek Şekil 1’de verilmiştir. Kaplama süresinin artışına bağlı olarak tabaka kalınlıkları artış göstermiş, 2 saat süreyle yapılan proses sonrası 52.26±2.56 µm kalınlık elde edilirken, 4 saat proseslenmiş numunede 72.74±3.4 µm kalınlık değerine ulaşılmıştır. 4 saat ve 6 saat süreyle yapılan prosesler karşılaştırıldığında sürenin artması ile kaplama kalınlığı 1.2 kat artarak 88.42±4.2 µm kalınlığa ulaşmıştır. Artan proses süresi ile aluminyumun yüzeyden içeri doğru sürekli difüzyonu tabaka kalınlığında izlenebilir bir artışa neden olmuştur. Numunelerin kesitleri incelendiğinde, termo-reaktif difüzyon sonrası yüzeyde elde edilen aluminid tabakanın homojen, sürekli olduğu görülmektedir. Ayrıca numune yüzeyinden içeriye doğru herhangi bir oksit varlığı da tespit edilmemiştir. Bu durumda iç oksidasyon olmaksızın prosesin gerçekleştiği kabul edilmektedir. 1073 VI.

Kaplama sonrası alaşım yüzeylerinde SEM-EDS analizleri yapılmıştır ve elde edilen bulgular Şekil 2’de verilmiştir. EDS analizleri yüzeyde aluminyum ve nikel elementlerince zengin bir tabaka varlığına işaret etmektedir. Proses süresinin 2 saatten 4 saate arttırılması ile aluminyumun sürekli içeri difüzyonunda yeralan boşyerlerin doldurulduğu ve böylece yüzeydeki aluminyum miktarının ağırlıkça % 78.6 seviyesinden % 65.42 seviyesine azalarak içeri difüzyonun süreçle azaldığı tespit edilmiştir. Bu azalma trendi 6 saatlik işlem sonrası yüzey karakterizasyonunda da izlenmiştir. Şekil 2. Aluminid kaplama sonrası alaşımın kesitine ait SEM görüntüleri. Kaplama prosesi sonrası yüzeyde oluşan fazlar XRD ile analiz edilerek elde edilen spektralar Şekil 3’te verilmiştir. Proses öncesi inceleme yapılan altlık malzemede sadece nikel katı ergiyine ait belirgin pikler görülmüştür. 700°C sıcaklıkta yapılan aluminid kaplama sonrası yapılan XRD incelemelerinde ise yüzeyde literatürle uyumlu Ni-Al (NiAl, NiAl3, Ni2Al3, Ni5Al3) fazlarının oluştuğu ve sürenin artmasıyla beraber oluşan fazlara ait pik şiddetlerinin artış gösterdiği tespit edilmiştir (Atapek vd., 2023; Döleker vd., 2021). Ayrıca yüzeyde reaksiyona giremeyen Al2O3 toz varlığı da tespit edilmiştir. 1074 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 3. Aluminid kaplama sonrası alaşımın yüzeyine ait XRD datası. Altık malzeme ve farklı sürelerde aluminid kaplanmış yüzeylerin sertlikleri ölçülerek elde edilen bulgular Şekil 4’te verilmiştir. Kaplama öncesi altlık malzemeye ait sertlik değeri 355±22 HV iken 6 saat sürelik kaplama sonrası sertlik değeri 1315±30 HV değerine ulaşmıştır. Atapek ve arkadaşları kaba ve ince taneli aluminyum partikülleri kullanarak kutu sementasyon yöntemi ile Inconel 625 altlık malzeme yüzeyinde aluminid tabaka elde etmiş ve kaplama sonrası numune yüzey sertliğini 1369 ± 13.81 HV0.5 ölçmüştür (Atapek vd., 2023). Bu çalışmada da özellikle ince toz formu ile elde edilmiş kaplama sertlik değerine 6 saatlik bir prosesleme ile ulaşılabilmiştir. Şekil 4. Kaplanmış yüzeylere ait sertlik değerleri. Sonuç Aluminid kaplama çalışmaları sonrasında yapılan karakterizasyon çalışmalarda; (i) yüzeyde aluminyumca zengin NiAl, NiAl3, Ni2Al3 ve Ni5Al3 fazlarının oluştuğu, (ii) artan proses süresi ile kaplama kalınlığının arttığı tespit edilmiştir. Proses süresinin artması ile sertlik değerleri de artarak özellikle altık malzeme yüzey sertliğine kıyasla 6 saatlik bir prosesleme sonrasında 1075 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yüzey sertliği yaklaşık 4 kat arttırılarak 1315 HV sertlik değerine ulaşılmıştır.

Ancak alaşımın yüksek sıcaklıkta uzun sürede oksidasyona maruz kalması ve yapısal bütünlüğünü kaybetmesi alaşımın uzun ömürde kullanımını sınırlamaktadır. Alaşım üzerine yüzey mühendisliği uygulamaları ile çalışma koşullarına karşılık uzun ömür kazanımı sağlanabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, 700 °C sıcaklıkta termo-reaktif difüzyon kaplama ile Ti6Al4V alaşım yüzeyinde bir aluminid tabakasının oluşumu sağlanmış ve özellikle proses süresine bağlı olarak yüzey/yüzeyaltı metalurjik oluşumlar karakterize edilmiştir. Metalurjik karakterizasyon çalışmaları kaplama yapısında çeşitli Ti-Al fazlarının (TiAl, TiAl2 ve TiAl3) oluşabildiğine ve özellikle artan proses süresine bağlı olarak aluminid kaplama tabaka kalınlığında sürekli bir artışın meydana geldiğini ortaya koymuştur. Alaşım yüzeyinde yapılan sertlik taramaları ise çift faz (α+β) yapılı titanyum alaşımına kıyasla daha yüksek sertlik değerlerine ulaşılabildiğini göstermiştir. Yüzeyde sürekli, homojen kalınlıkta ve sert aluminid tabakasının başarılı bir şekilde oluşturulması alaşımın yüksek sıcaklık oksidasyonuna yönelik çalışmalara öncül data eldesini mümkün kılmıştır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal SURFACE MODIFICATION OF Ti6Al4V ALLOY BY THERMO-REACTIVE DIFFUSION COATINGS Abstract Ti6Al4V alloy, which has low density, superior corrosion resistance and high temperature mechanical stability, is an alloy used in the aviation and space industry. However, the alloy's exposure to oxidation at high temperatures over a long period of time and its loss of structural integrity limits the long-life use of the alloy. With surface engineering applications on the alloy, long life can be achieved in response to operating conditions. In this study, the formation of an aluminide layer on the Ti6Al4V alloy surface is achieved by thermo-reactive diffusion coating at 700 °C and the surface/subsurface metallurgical formations are characterized, especially depending on the process time. Metallurgical characterization studies have revealed that various Ti-Al phases (TiAl, TiAl2 and TiAl3) can be formed in the coating structure and there is a continuous increase in the aluminide coating layer thickness, especially due to increasing process time. Hardness scans performed on the alloy surface show that higher hardness values could be achieved compared to the dual phase (α+β) titanium alloy. The successful formation of a continuous, homogeneous thick and hard aluminide layer on the surface made it possible to obtain preliminary data for studies on high temperature oxidation of the alloy. Keywords: Ti6Al4V, aluminide coating, microstructure, characterization. 1080 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Yüksek sürünme direnci, üstün korozyon dayanımı ve düşük yoğunluk özelliklerinden dolayı titanyum alaşımları havacılık ve uzay uygulamalarında tercih edilmektedir. Titanyum alaşımlarının kullanımının %50’sini oluşturan Ti6Al4V alaşımı metalurjik olarak bir α+β alaşımıdır (Liu vd., 2021). Sahip olduğu fazlar sebebiyle yüksek mukavemet, tokluk, üstün korozyon direnci, şekillendirilebilme ve iyi sürünme direnci sergilemektedir (Donachie vd., 2000). Bütün bu kombinasyonlara rağmen Ti6Al4V alaşımı 420°C çalışma sıcaklığına kadar kullanılabilmektedir. Yüksek sıcaklık uygulamalarında titanyumun oksijene karşı yüksek afinitesinden dolayı yüzeyde koruyucu olmayan gevrek oksit tabakası oluşmaktadır (Zhang vd., 2012; McKee vd., 1993; Wang vd., 2021). Bu da uzun vadede yapısal bütünlüğün bozulup alaşımın erken ömürde hasarlanmasına neden olmaktadır. Alaşımın yüzey işlemleri ile yüksek sıcaklık oksidasyon direncini geliştirerek servis ömrünün artırılması sağlanabilmektedir (McKee vd., 1993). Titanyum esaslı altlık malzeme yüzeyinde Al2O3, Cr2O3 ve SiO2 gibi oksijen geçirgenliği düşük ince tabakaların oluşturulması ile malzemenin oksidasyon direncinin arttırılması mümkündür (McKee vd., 1993; Wang vd., 2021; Shafiri vd., 2019). Termal sprey, plazma sprey, sıcak daldırma, lazer kaplama ve kutu sementasyon yöntemleriyle yapılan yüzey modifikasyonları ile yüzeyde Ti-Al tabakası elde edilebilmektedir (Wang vd., 2021). Yüzey işlemleri arasında termo-reaktif difüzyon kaplama metodu pahalı ekipmanlara ihtiyaç duymadan kaplama ile altlık malzeme arayüzey bütünlüğünü sağlamasından dolayı tercih edilmektedir (Bianco vd., 1996). Bu tür bir yöntemin kullanımı ile özellikle titanyum alaşımı yüzeyine aluminid kaplamalarının yapılması ile alaşımın oksidasyon direncini önemli ölçüde arttırılabilmektedir (Ohnuma vd., 2000; Alam vd., 2009). Aluminyumun içeri difüzyonu sonrası numune yüzeyinde oluşan aluminid tabakada TiAl, TiAl2, TiAl3 ve Ti3Al esaslı fazlar oluşmaktadır (Deinq vd., 2005). Termo-reaktif difüzyon kaplamada kullanılan toz karışımının içeriğine ve proses sıcaklığına/zamanına bağlı olarak yüzeyde değişken metalurjik yapıda ve kalınlıkta difüzyon tabakası elde edilmektedir. Xiang ve arkadaşları tarafından yapılan bir çalışmada, yüzeyde oluşturulan aluminyumca zengin γ-TiAl aluminid tabakasının yüzeyde oksidasyon koşullarında koruyucu bir tabaka olarak görev alan Al2O3 tabakası oluşturabildiği izlenmiştir (Xiang vd., 2002). Yener ve arkadaşları, Ti6Al4V alaşımı yüzeyine kutu sementasyon yöntemi ile aluminid kaplayarak homojen, yoğun, porozite içermeyen ve yüzeye iyi tutunmuş γ-TiAl tabakasının alaşım yüzeyinde kristallenmesini sağlayarak yüzeyde altlık malzemeye göre sertliğin (~650 HV) artabildiğini ortaya koymuştur (Yener vd., 2023). Bu çalışmada, Ti6Al4V alaşımının kutu sementasyon metodu kullanılarak termo-reaktif difüzyon 1081 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal koşulları iletilerek yüzeyler aluminyum ile kaplanmıştır. Seçilen proseste sabit sıcaklıkta (700°C) değişken sürelere (2-6 saat) bağlı olarak elde edilen kaplanmanın metalurjik ve mekanik karakterizasyonu yapılmıştır. Malzeme ve Yöntem Döküm konumunda bulunan Ti6Al4V alaşımından (89.9Ti- 6.14Al-3.96 V, ağ.-%), hassas kesme cihazı (Mikrotest Multicut Sense) ile 10x10x10 mm boyutlarında numuneler alınmış ve yüzeyler metalografik olarak hazırlanmıştır. Metalografik hazırlık sürecinde numuneler 320, 600, 1000, 2500 ve 4000 mesh’lik SiC esaslı zımpara kağıtları ile zımparalanmış, 3µm ve 1µm elmas solüsyon ile parlatılmıştır. Metalografik işlem sonrası numunelerin ağırlıkları hassas terazi ile tartılarak kaplama öncesi ve sonrası ağırlıkları kayıt altına alınmıştır. Yüzeylerin aluminid kaplanmasında, aluminyum kaynağı olarak saf aluminyum tozu (40-45 µm), inert malzeme olarak alumina (< 1 µm) ve aktivatör olarak NH4Cl tozları kullanılmıştır. Kaplama işleminde 40 Al + 10 NH4Cl + 50 Al2O3 (ağ.-%) bileşimine sahip toz karışımı hazırlanarak tozların mini rotor ile 2 saat karıştırılması sağlanmıştır. Numuneler hazırlanan toz karışımı içerisine gömülerek 700°C sıcaklıkta, 2, 4 ve 6 saat süreyle aluminid kaplanmıştır. Kaplama işleminin ardından numunelerin yüzeylerinin karakterize edilmesi için ışık mikroskobu (IM, Olympus BX41M-LED), taramalı elektron mikroskobu (SEM, Jeol JSM 6060) ve enerji dağılımlı x-ışın spektrometresi (EDS, IXRF) kullanılmıştır. IM çalışmalarında, aydınlık alan kontrastı ile kaplama kalınlıkları çoklu olarak ölçülmüş olup, ortalama bir değer belirlenmiştir. Aluminid kaplamada oluşan fazların tayini X-ışın difraktometresi (XRD, Rigaku Ultima+) kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. XRD çalışmalarında Cu-Kα radyasyonu kullanılmış ve tarama hızı 1.0 °/dak. olarak seçilmiştir. Kaplama işlemleri sonrası numune yüzeylerine ait sertlik değerleri Vickers sertlik cihazı ile 10 g yük altında çoklu kez ölçülmüş ve ortalama değer hesaplanmıştır. Bulgular ve Tartışma 700℃ sıcaklıkta farklı sürelerde (2, 4 ve 6 saat) aluminid kaplanmış Ti6Al4V altlık malzemesinde birim alan başına birikim miktarı hesaplanmış ve elde edilen data Şekil 1’de verilmiştir. Aluminid kaplama süresi 2 saatten 4 saate çıkarıldığında yüzeydeki birikim miktarının 59x10-4 g/cm2 değerinden ~1.5 kat artarak 86x10-4 g/cm2 değerine yükseldiği ve kaplama süresinin 4 saatten 6 saate çıktığı proseste kaplama miktarının ~1.2 kat artarak 103x104 g/cm2 değerine ulaştığı görülmüştür. Artan süre ile birlikte yüzeyden içeri doğru aluminyum difüzyonu artmakta ve böylece daha fazla birikim sağlanabilmiştir. 1082 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 1. Kaplama süresine bağlı olarak yüzeydeki birikim miktarının değişimi. Farklı sürelerde termo-reaktif difüzyon kaplama uygulanmış atlık malzeme yüzeyinde oluşturulan aluminid tabaka kalınlığının zamana bağlı değişimini gösteren IM ve SEM kesit görüntüleri Şekil 2’de verilmiştir. Kaplama süresi 2 saatten 4 saate arttırılması ile aluminid tabaka kalınlığı 27.1±2.1 μm’den 42.6±3.2 μm değerine artarak 6 saatlik bir işlem ile tabaka kalınlığının 50.9±4.7 μm değerine ulaştığı tespit edilmiştir. Proses süresi arttıkça birikim miktarındaki artışa benzer bir trend ile kaplama kalınlığında zamanla artış izlenmiştir. SEMEDS çalışmaları ile elde edilen kesit görüntüleri tüm prosesler ile alaşım yüzeylerinde alüminyumca zengin homojen ve sürekli bir kaplama tabakasının oluştuğunu göstermiştir (Şekil 2). 1083 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 2. Kaplama sonrası alaşımın kesitine ait IM ve SEM görüntüleri. Aluminid kaplama sonrası alaşımın yüzeyinde oluşan fazlar XRD analizleri ile tespit edilmiştir. Şekil 3’te işlem görmemiş Ti6Al4V altlık malzemeye ait XRD spektraları incelendiğinde sadece α ve β fazlarının varlığı tespit edilmiştir. 700°C sıcaklıkta 2, 4 ve 6 saat boyunca termoreaktif difüzyon kaplamalar sonrasında altlık malzeme yüzeylerinde TiAl, TiAl2 ve TiAl3 ve fazlarının oluşabildiği gözlenmiştir. Yüzeyde aynı zamanda karışım tozunun bir bileşeni olan ve reaksiyona giremeyen Al2O3 toz varlığı da izlenmiştir. kaplama süresinin artmasına bağlı olarak Ti-Al fazlarına ait pik şiddeti daha da artmıştır. 1084 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 3. Aluminid kaplama sonrası alaşımın yüzeyine ait XRD datası. Aluminid kaplama işlemi uygulanmamış alaşımın ve farklı sürelerde kaplama işlemi uygulanmış alaşımların yüzeylerine ait sertlik değerleri Şekil 4’te verilmiştir. İşlem görmemiş alaşım 300±20 HV sertliğe sahipken yüzey işlemleri sonrasında proses süresinin fonksiyonu olarak alaşıma ait yüzey sertliğinde önemli bir artış tespit edilmiştir. Yapılan çalışmalar aluminid kaplama ile alaşım yüzeyinde oluşan TiAl, TiAl2 ve TiAl3 fazlarının yüzey sertlik artışında önemli bir etken olduğunu ortaya koymuştur (Yılmaz vd., 2022; Patel vd., 2020). Şekil 4. Kaplanmış alaşımların yüzey sertlik datası. 1085 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Sonuç Kaplamalar üzerine yapılan metalurjik ve mekanik karakterizasyon çalışmalar; (i) termo-reaktif difüzyon ile titanyum esaslı malzeme yüzeyinde alüminyumun içeri difüzyonu sağlanarak sürekli, homojen Ti-Al içerikli fazlarının (TiAl, TiAl2 ve TiAl3) başarılı bir şekilde oluşturulabildiğini, (ii) proses süresine bağlı olarak Ti-Al tabakasında sürekli bir artışın sağlanabildiği ve 6 saat prosesleme ile yüzeyde ~ 50 µm tabaka kalınlığına ulaşılabildiğini, (iii) kaplama ile birlikte altlık malzeme yüzeyinde 660 HV gibi bir yüksek sertlik değerine ulaşılabileceğini ve altlık malzemeye (300±20 HV) kıyasla yaklaşık 2 kat sertliğin arttırılabildiğini göstermiştir. 1086 VI.

Sütün raf ömrünü uzatmanın birçok yolu olup bunlardan birisi de peynir üretimidir. Peynir üretimi ısıtma (pastörizasyon), kültürleme, doğrudan asitleştirme, dehidrasyon, soğutma ve paketleme gibi çeşitli teknikler yardımıyla yapılmaktadır. Doğal peynirler, sütün pıhtılaşmasıyla, genellikle kimozinin pıhtılaştırıcı bir çözelti içindeki enzimatik etkisiyle veya bazı durumlarda laktik asit bakteri kültürlerinin etkisiyle veya doğrudan asit ilavesiyle kazeinlerin izoelektrik çökelmesi yoluyla üretilir. Peynirlerde genellikle Lactococcus, Lactobacillus, Enterococcus, Streptococcus ve Leuconostoc cinslerine ait Laktik asit bakterilerine (LAB) rastlanmaktadır. Son dönemlerde bir mikro alg olan Spirulina platensis (S. platensis) diyet takviyesi olarak yaygın bir şekilde kullanılmaktadır. Alglerin özellikle S. platensis’in gıda endüstrisindeki uygulamalarından biri biyoaktif bileşikler sağlamak için fermente süt ürünlerine eklenmesidir. Bu nedenle peynir gibi fermente ürünlerin zenginleştirilmesinde S. platensis kullanılması durumunda starter kültürlere herhangi bir antimikrobiyal etkisinin olup olmadığı sorgulanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, laktik asit bakterilerinin büyümesini teşvik edici yanını gösteren çalışmaların aksine S. platensis’in kuru ve metanol ekstraktlarının farklı konsantrasyonlarının (2.5 mg/ml, 5 mg/ml, 7.5 mg/ml ve 10 mg/ml) peynir üretiminde starter kültür olarak kullanılan laktik asit bakterileri (Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris, Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis -R-704) üzerine herhangi bir antimikrobiyal etkisinin olup olmadığının araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Bu çalışmada kullanılan S. platensis Çukurova Üniversitesi Su Ürünleri fakültesinden kuru olarak sağlanırken, starter kültür suşları Ch. Hansen’s firmasından temin edilmiştir. Antimikrobiyal etkinin incelenmesinde Agar Difüzyon yöntemi kullanılmıştır. In vitro koşullarda 5 tekrarlı gerçekleştirilmiş bu çalışmada, peynir starter bakterileri üzerine S. platensis’in tüm çalışılan konsantrasyonlarında herhangi bir antibakteriyel etki tespit edilememiştir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EFFECT OF Spırulina platensis ON LACTIC ACID BACTERIA USED AS STARTER CULTURE IN CHEESE PRODUCTION Abstract Milk is a food product with low acidity and high water activity. There are many ways to extend the shelf life of milk, and one of them is cheese production. Cheese production is done with the help of various techniques such as heating (pasteurization), culturing, direct acidification, dehydration, cooling and packaging. Natural cheeses are produced by coagulation of milk, usually by the enzymatic action of chymosin in a coagulant solution, or in some cases by isoelectric precipitation of caseins by the action of lactic acid bacterial cultures or by direct addition of acid. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) belonging to the genera Lactococcus, Lactobacillus, Enterococcus, Streptococcus and Leuconostoc are generally found in cheese. Recently, Spirulina platensis (S. platensis), a microalgae, has been widely used as a dietary supplement. One of the applications of algae, especially S. platensis, in the food industry is the addition to fermented dairy products to provide bioactive compounds. Therefore, it is questioned whether S. platensis has any antimicrobial effect on starter cultures when used in the enrichment of fermented products such as cheese. In this study, it was aimed to investigate whether different concentrations (2.5 mg/ml, 5 mg/ml, 7.5 mg/ml ve 10 mg/ml) of dry and methanol extracts of S. platensis have any antimicrobial effects on lactic acid bacteria used as starter culture (Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris, Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis -R-704) in cheese production, contrary to studies showing its ability to promote the growth of lactic acid bacteria. While S. platensis used in this study was provided dry from Çukurova University Faculty of Fisheries, these strains used as starter cultures were obtained from Ch. Hansen's company. Agar Diffusion method was used to examine the antimicrobial effect. In this study, which was carried out with 5 replicates under in vitro conditions, no antibacterial effect was detected on cheese starter bacteria at all studied concentrations of S. platensis.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Milyonlarca insanın beslenme gereksinimlerini karşılamak için dünya çapında yaygın olarak tüketilen bir gıda olan süt, sağladığı önemli makro ve mikro besinler dolayısıyla oldukça önemlidir. Ayrıca, süt ve süt ürünleri, çeşitli gıda ürünlerinin üretiminde önemli bir bileşen olarak da kullanılmaktadır. Süt, protein, kalsiyum, fosfor, B vitaminleri ve diğer önemli besin öğelerini içermektedir (Park, 2009). Sütün raf ömrünü uzatmak için üretilen yoğurt, kefir ve peynir gibi fermente süt ürünleri binlerce yıldır tüketilmektedir. Fermente süt ürünleri, sütte bulunan doğal bakterilerin ve mayaların fermantasyon süreciyle oluşur (Zamfira vd., 2006; Visioli ve Strata, 2014). Bu süreç, sütteki karbonhidratların (genellikle laktoz) bakteriler veya mayalar tarafından fermantasyonu ve bunun sonucunda laktik asit gibi organik asitlerin oluşmasıyla gerçekleşir. Oluşan laktik asit, sütün pH'ını düşürerek asidik bir ortam yaratır (Zamfira vd., 2006). Asidik ortam, zararlı mikroorganizmaların büyümesini engellerken, üretilen laktik asit ve düşük pH, sütün dayanıklılığını artırır ve bozulmasını önler. Fermente sütlerde bulunan laktik asit bakterileri (LAB) çeşitli türlerden oluşur ve genellikle Lactobacillus, Lactococcus, Leuconostoc, Pediococcus, Streptococcus ve Bifidobacterium cinslerine ait bakterileri içerir. Bu bakterilerin her biri fermente süt ürünlerinin oluşumunda farklı roller üstlenir ve ürünlerin besleyici değerini artırırken, tat, koku ve doku özelliklerini belirleyebilirler. Fermentasyon sürecinde, laktik asit bakterilerinin metabolizması çeşitli aroma bileşenleri ve organik asitlerin oluşumuna yol açabilir. Bu bileşenler, fermente süt ürünlerinin karakteristik tat, koku ve dokusunu belirler. Bazı laktik asit bakterileri B vitaminleri gibi önemli besleyici bileşenleri de sentezleyebilir (Panesar, 2011).Süt, düşük asitli ve yüksek su aktivitesine sahip bir gıda ürünüdür. Sütün raf ömrünü uzatmanın birçok yolu olup bunlardan birisi de peynir üretimidir. Bir fermente süt ürünü olan peynir; Türk Gıda Kodeksi’nde "Hammaddenin uygun bir pıhtılaştırıcı kullanılarak pıhtılaştırılması ve pıhtıdan peyniraltı suyunun ayrılmasıyla ya da sütün permeatının ayrılmasından sonra pıhtılaştırılmasıyla elde edilen, farklı sertliklerde ve yağ içeriklerinde, salamura ile ya da kuru tuzlama ile tuzlanarak ya da tuzlanmadan, starter kültür kullanarak ya da kullanmadan, telemesi haşlanarak ya da haşlanmadan, çeşnili ya da çeşnisiz olarak, tekniğine uygun olarak üretilen, olgunlaştırılmadan ya da olgunlaştırıldıktan sonra tüketilen, çeşidine özgü karakteristik özellikleri gösteren süt ürünleri” şeklinde tanımlanmaktadır (Anonymous, 2015). Peynir birçok çeşidi olan ve en fazla tanınan süt ürünüdür. Dünyada 4000’den fazla, Türkiye’de 200’den fazla peynir çeşidi bulunmaktadır. Bu peynirlerin yapımında ortak işlemler olarak, süt temini, standardizasyon, pastörizasyon, starter kültür ilavesi, mayalama, oluşan pıhtının işlenmesi aşamalarını içerir. 1091 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Peynirler, sütün pıhtılaşmasıyla, genellikle kimozinin pıhtılaştırıcı bir çözelti içindeki enzimatik etkisiyle veya bazı durumlarda LAB kültürlerinin etkisiyle veya doğrudan asit ilavesiyle kazeinlerin izoelektrik çökelmesi yoluyla üretilir (Park, 2009). Peynirlerde genellikle Lactococcus, Lactobacillus, Enterococcus, Streptococcus ve Leuconostoc cinslerine ait LAB’lere rastlanır. Laktik asit bakterilerinin (LAB) mikrobiyal metabolizması, süt bileşenlerini, özellikle karbonhidratları ve proteinleri, diğer mikroorganizmaların büyümesi ve metabolizması için bir substrat olarak kullanılabilecek ikincil ürünlere dönüştürür (Tilocca vd, 2020). Peynir üretimi süt, peynir mayası ve bakteriler arasında karmaşık bir etkileşim içerir. Sütün bakteriyolojik kalitesi önemli ölçüde değiştiğinden, çoğu peynir pastörize süt kullanılarak yapılır. Bu pastörizasyon işlemi, spontan asitlenme sağlayabilen LAB dahil olmak üzere sütte bulunan patojen ve saprofit bakterilerin %99'undan fazlasını ortadan kaldırır. Bu nedenle istenilen özelliklere sahip bir peynir yapmak için süte starter kültürler eklenmektedir. Starter kültürü, peynir yapımının tüm aşamalarında ve olgunlaşma sürecinde çok önemli bir rol oynar (Høier vd, 2010). Fermantasyon süreçlerinde merkezi bir rol oynayan LAB’lar, fermente yiyecek ve içeceklerin üretiminde uzun ve güvenli üretim ve tüketim geçmişine sahiptir. Peynir üretimi sırasında starter kültür olarak kullanılan laktik asit bakterileri laktozu laktik aside metabolize edebilmekte, olgunlaşma sırasında peynir lezzetinin gelişmesine katkıda bulunmakta ve oluşturdukları metabolitleri ile istenmeyen mikroorganizmaların inhibisyonunu sağlamaktadır. Başta laktik asit olmak üzere organik asitlerin üretimi yoluyla hammaddenin hızla asitlenmesine neden olurlar. Ayrıca, asetik asit, etanol, aroma bileşikleri, bakteriyosinler, ekzopolisakkaritler ve çeşitli enzimlerin LAB tarafından üretimi önemlidir. Bu şekilde fermente ürünün raf ömrünü ve mikrobiyal güvenliğini arttırır, dokuyu iyileştirir ve son ürünün hoş duyusal profiline katkıda bulunurlar (Leroy ve Vuyst, 2004). Peynir yapımı için başlangıç kültürünün iki ana işlevi vardır: Peynir yapımı sırasında asit üretmek ve peynirin olgunlaşmasına yardımcı olmaktır. Kültürlerin ürettiği asit, peynir yapımında önemli bir adım olan asitle pıhtılaşmış peynirlerde süt pıhtılaşmasına yol açar. Peynir mayası ise pıhtılaşmış peynirlerde asit gelişimi ile pıhtılaşmayı hızlandırır. Birçok peynirin üretimi, asitlik gelişimi Lactococcus lactis alt türleri lactis ve cremoris'e bağlıdır.Ticari starter kültürlerinde esas olarak Lactococcus, Lactobacillus, Streptococcus ve Bifidobacterium suşları kullanılmaktadır. İyi asit üretici oldukları için en yaygın kullanılan mezofilik starter kültür lactis ve cremoris alt türlerini içeren Lactococcus lactis'tir. Karışık mezofilik kültürler genellikle %90 asit üreticisi ve %10 aroma üreticisidir. Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis ve L. lactis subsp. cremoris süt endüstrisinde büyük öneme sahiptir (Başaran vd, 2001). 1092 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Lactococcus cinsinin üyeleri Gram pozitif koklar, büyüme koşullarına bağlı olarak oval görünebilen ve tipik olarak 0.5-1.5 μm boyutlarındadır. Spor oluşturmayan, hareketli olmayan ve fakültatif anaerob bakterilerdir. Laktokok türleri çiftler veya kısa zincirler halinde büyümektedir ve streptokok cinsinin birçok üyesinden farklı olarak bu organizmalar uzun zincirler halinde gelişmezler. Laktokoklar, pH 6.3-6.9 değerleri arasında ve optimum sıcaklık genellikle 30 °C'ye yakın olsa da 12 ila 40 °C arasında büyüyebilmektedir. L. lactis subsp. cremoris lezzet bileşiği olarak taze peynir üretiminde esastır. L. lactis subsp. lactis ve L. lactis subsp. cremoris kombinasyonunun, beyaz salamura peynirdeki lezzet ve aroma söz konusu olduğunda en iyi kombinasyon olduğu kabul edilmektedir. Yumuşak, olgunlaşmış, kaşar ve taze peynirler gibi peynir çeşitlerinde kullanılmaktadır. Karışık laktokok kültürü (L. lactis subsp. lactis ve L. lactis subsp. cremoris) kullanılarak yapılan pıhtısı haşlanmamış beyaz salamura peynirlerde (Türk beyaz peyniri, feta, teleme vb.) olgunlaşma, mezofilik ve termofilik karışımı kültürlerle (L. lactis subsp. lactis ve Streptococcus thermophilus) yapılan peynirlerden daha hızlı gelişmektedir. L. lactis subsp. lactis ve L. lactis subsp. cremoris yüksek tuz konsantrasyonlarına tolerans göstermemekte ve genellikle %6.5 'in üzerinde büyüyememektedir (Ivy ve Wiedmann, 2014; Büyükyörük, 2007). Laktik aside ilaveten, termofilik starter kültürler karakteristik olarak asetaldehit üretir. Peynir yapımında zaman zaman peynirin türüne göre özel işlevi olan ikincil kültürler kullanılır. Örneğin, Propionibacterium freudenreichii subsp. shermanii İsviçre peyniri çeşitlerinde peynirin (gözlerin) iç kısmında büyük delikler oluşturarak CO2 üretir. Diğer kültürler olgunlaşmaya yardımcı olarak kullanılır. Başlangıç kültürlerine ilave olarak eklenirler. Bu bağlamda, peynir olgunlaşması sırasında büyüyen ve olgunlaşma enzimleri üreten bazı Lactobacilli ve Pediococci bakterileri de kullanılır. Sonuç olarak, bir peynirin temel karakteri starter türü, bileşimi, büyümesi ve metabolik özelliklerine göre yönetilir (Ivy ve Wiedmann, 2014).Fermente süt ürünlerine mikroalglerin eklenmesi, biyoaktif bileşiklerin sağlanmasını hedefleyen daha sağlıklı süt ürünleri oluşturmanın bir aracı olarak benimsenmektedir. Bu amaçla, Arthrospira (Spirullina) spp. ve Chlorella vulgaris gibi mikroalg türleri, fermente gıda takviyesi için yaygın olarak kullanılan iki ana türdür. Mikroalgler, mikroskobik canlılar olup çapı 2 µm’den küçük, siyanobakteriler (Chloroxybacteria) gibi prokaryot veya yeşil algler (Chlorophyta) gibi ökaryotik olabilmektedir (Sasa vd, 2020). Yaklaşık 50.000 türe sahip fotosentez yapabilen, tatlı ve tuzlu su ortamlarında yaşayabilen canlılar olup, hücre yapılarına, pigmentlerine ve yaşam döngülerine göre farklılık göstermektedir. Yeşil algler (Chlorophyceae), mavi-yeşil algler (cyanopyta), diatomlar (Bacillariophyceae) en önemli 1093 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal mikroalglerdendir (Suna, 2020). Mikroalg zengin bir karbon kaynağıdır ve bu biyoyakıtlarda, sağlık takviyelerinde, ilaçlarda ve kozmetiklerde kullanılabilmektedir (Alam vd, 2020). Mikroalgler, protein, karbonhidrat (özellikle β glukan), lipit, esansiyel amino asit, çoklu doymamış yağ asitleri, vitamin, mineral ve kalorisiz diyet lifi gibi yüksek besin değerli bileşenleri sentezleme yetenekleri ile bilinmektedir (Sasa vd, 2020). Bunların nispi bileşimi türlere ve büyüme koşullarına bağlıdır. Kuru biyokütle ağırlıklarına göre ise %9-50 protein ve %7-50 karbonhidrat, %7-50 yağ içerebilmektedir. En önemli mikroalg türleri Isochrysis, Dunaliella, Chaetoceros, Chlorella ve Spirulina’dır (Nale, 2021). Chlorella vulgaris, Arthrospira platensis, Haematococcus pluvialis ve Dunaliella salina gibi bazı mikroalgler esas olarak gıda, yem ve nutrasötik sektörlerinde pazarlanmaktadır. Protein, karotenoidler, özellikle omega-6 ve omega-3 lipitleri üretme potansiyellerine dayanarak, hayvan yemi ve su ürünleri yetiştiriciliği, protein ve kozmetik gibi birçok pazarda yer alabilirler (Molino vd, 2018). C. vulgaris ve A. platensis gibi türler, US FDA (Food and Drug Administration) ve EFSA (European Food Safety Authority) tarafından güvenli olarak kabul edilmiştir. C. vulgaris ve A. platensis, vitamin, esansiyel amino asit ve çoklu doymamış yağ asitleri içeriği nedeniyle nutrasötik sektörde en yaygın olarak bilinen ve kullanılan mikroalglerdir. Ayrıca sakız, şeker ve bazı ürünlerde boya maddesi olarak kullanılmaktadır. Spiruluna piyasada hap, tablet, kapsül, toz ve jel formlarında bulunduğu gibi Spiruluna sirkesi, sandoloz sakızı olarak da ticari olarak satışa sunulmaktadır. Aynı zamanda S. platensis’in unlu mamuller, süt ürünleri, emülsiyon et ürünleri ve tatlılar gibi gıda sanayinin birçok dalında kullanılma potansiyeli de mevcuttur (Güler vd, 2021). Bunların yanı sıra Kozmetik sektöründe yaygın olarak kullanılan mikroalgler’den C. vulgaris, yaşlanma karşıtı özelliklere sahip bir ajan olarak kolajen sentezi için kullanılırken, karotenoid içerikleri nedeniyle renklendirici maddeler olarak ve UV koruması için D. salina ve H. pluvialis tercih edilmektedir (Molino vd, 2018).Uzun yıllardır bir mikro alg olan Spirulina platensis (S. platensis) diyet takviyesi olarak yaygın bir şekilde kullanılmaktadır (Kapoor ve Mehta, 1993). S. platensis, filamentli bir siyanobakteridir ve çok hücreli ipliksi yapısı ile bilinmektedir. Bu organizmanın özelliklerinden biri de art arda sıralanmış silindirik trikomların heliks şeklinde dizilmesidir. S. platensis, yüksek oranda vitamin, mineral ve diğer besin bileşenlerini sağlamaktadır. Bu organizma, insanlarda metabolik aktiviteyi artırıcı etkilerinin yanı sıra, yüksek oranda protein içeriğine sahiptir ve yapısındaki proteinlerin %95'i sindirilebilir özelliktedir ve özellikle lizin, valin ve izolösin gibi esansiyel amino asitleri içerir (Suna, 2020; Akça, 2020). Spirulina, toksisite riski taşımayan ve anemi, tümör büyümesi ve yetersiz beslenme gibi durumlarda mükemmel bir gıda kaynağı 1094 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal olarak da değerlendirilmektedir (Saranraj ve Sivasakthi, 2014). Son zamanlarda, Spirulina'nın terapötik etkileri daha fazla önem kazanmıştır. Özellikle ağır metallerin neden olduğu kolesterol ve nefrotoksisitenin azaltılması, antikanser özellikleri, radyasyona karşı koruma sağlama ve bağışıklık sisteminin güçlendirilmesi gibi yönleri üzerinde araştırmalar yoğunlaşmıştır. Bununla birlikte, Spirulina'nın antiviral, antibakteriyel, antifungal ve antiparaziter aktiviteler gibi çeşitli biyolojik fonksiyonlara da sahip olduğu belirtilmektedir (El-Baz vd., 2013). Tüm bu yararlı etkilerinden dolayı gıda endüstrisinde de değerlendirilmesi mümkün olabilmekte ve farklı ürün gruplarına yönelik çalışmalar sürdürülmektedir.S. platensis'in gıda endüstrisindeki uygulamalarından biri olarak, biyoaktif bileşikler sağlamak amacıyla peynir gibi fermente ürünlerin zenginleştirilmesinde kullanılması söz konusu olabilmektedir. Bu durumda starter kültürlerin S. platensis’in antimikrobiyal etkisine karşın nasıl bir tavır gösterdikleri sorgulanması gereken bir husus olarak ön plana çıkmaktadır.Bu çalışmada, laktik asit bakterilerinin (LAB) büyümesini teşvik eden etkilerinin aksine, Spirulina platensis'in kuru ve metanol ekstraktlarının farklı konsantrasyonlarının (2.5 mg/ml, 5 mg/ml, 7.5 mg/ml ve 10 mg/ml) peynir üretiminde kullanılan starter kültürler (Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris, Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis -R-704) üzerindeki antimikrobiyal etkisinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. 1. ARAŞTIRMA ve BULGULAR 1.1. MATERYAL Bu çalışmada kullanılan Spirulina platensis, Çukurova Üniversitesi Su Ürünleri Fakültesi'nden kuru olarak sağlanırken, starter kültür olarak kullanılan Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris, Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis -R-704 suşları Ch. Hansen’s firmasından temin edilmiştir. Ayrıca, çalışmada pozitif kontrol olarak kullanılan antibakteriyel kanamisin Çukurova Üniversitesi Gıda Mühendisliği bölümü mikrobiyoloji laboratuvarından temin edilmiştir. 1.2. YÖNTEM Spirulina platensis'in kuru formu ve metanol ekstraktının 4 farklı konsantrasyonu (2.5 mg/ml, 5 mg/ml, 7.5 mg/ml ve 10 mg/ml) L. lactis subsp. cremoris ve L. lactis subsp. lactis üzerindeki antimikrobiyal etkisinin araştırılmasında kullanılmış ve kuyucuk agar difüzyon yöntemi ile çalışılmıştır. 1.2.1. Starter Kültürün Laktik Asit Bakterilerinin Aktive Edilmesi Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris ve Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis (R-704) suşları 121oC’de 15 dakika sterilize edilen Tryptic Soy Broth besiyerine steril koşullarda ilave edilmiş ve 48 saat 30ºC’de inkübe edilmiştir. 1095 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 1.2.2. Spirulina platensis Preparatlarının ve Ekstraklarının Hazırlanması Spirulina platensis’in farklı konsantrasyonları (2.5 mg/ml, 5 mg/ml, 7.5 mg/ml ve 10 mg/ml) %75 metanol içinde çözülmüş ve oda sıcaklığında karanlık ortamda 24 saat bekletilmiştir. Elde edilen preparatların (metanol + S. platensis) pH değerleri saptanmıştır. 7 g kurutulmuş S. platensis 105 ml çözücü (%85 metanol) içinde karıştırılarak oda sıcaklığında 5 saat bekletilmiş ve 15 dakika sonikasyon işlemi uygulanarak hazırlanmıştır. Daha sonra Whatman filtre kağıdından süzülmüştür. Solüsyon içerisindeki çözücü, basınç altında Rotary Evaporatör ile buharlaştırılmış ve elde edilen kalıntı (ham ekstrakt) hava geçirmez şişelerde -20° C'de saklanmıştır. Elde edilen ekstraktlar (2.5 mg/ml, 5 mg/ml, 7.5 mg/ml ve 10 mg/ml) farklı konsantrasyonlarda metanol içinde çözülmüştür ve pH değerleri ölçülerek kullanılmıştır. Agar Difüzyon Yöntemi ile Spirulina platensis’in Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis ve Lactococcus lactis ssp. cremoris Üzerine Etkinliğinin İncelenmesi M17 Agar besiyeri kalınlığı 4mm olacak şekilde 90 mm çaplı plastik petrilerde hazırlanmıştır. Daha sonra canlandırılan starter kültürlerden 0.5 McFarland‘a (yaklaşık 108 süspansiyon/ml) ayarlanmış bakteri süspansiyonlarından 100 µL petriye eklenmiş ve yayma ekim yöntemi ile ekimleri yapılmıştır. Agar yüzeyi kuruduktan sonra hazırlanmış petrilere 3 kuyucuk olacak şekilde agar delici (corkborer) ile 6 mm çaplı standart kuyucuklar açılmıştır. Her bir kuyucuğa 50 μl steril su (Negatif kontrol), antibakteriyel (0/015mg/ml kanamycin;Pozitif kontrol) ve S. platensis’in hem metanol solüsyonu hem de kuru formundaki farklı konsantrasyonda hazırlanmış preparatları koyulmuştur. Daha sonra ekim yapılan petriler aerobik koşullar altında 48 saat boyunca 37 ° C'de inkübe edilmiştir. BULGULAR Araştırmada kullanılan S. platensis kuru ve metanol ekstrakt çözeltilerinin dört farklı konsantrasyonda, test mikroorganizması olarak kullanılan laktik asit bakterileri (L. lactis subsp. cremoris ve L. lactis subsp. lactis) üzerine antimikrobiyal etkisinin 5 tekerrürlü çalışmasının ortalama sonuçları Çizelge 1 ve 2’de verilmiştir. 1096 VI.

Kumar vd. (2011) tarafından yapılan çalışmada, S. platensis'in metanol ve aseton ekstraktlarının Staphylococcus aureus ve Salmonella Typhimurium’a karşı antibakteriyel etkisi incelenmiştir. 1097 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Çalışma sonunda, farklı konsantrasyonlarda (250 ppm'den 7000 ppm'e kadar) çalışılan ekstraktların bakterilerin üremesini inhibe ettiğini göstermişler. Ayrıca, S. platensis ekstraktlarının antibakteriyel ajan olarak kullanılabilecek aktif maddeleri ve kimyasal bileşimini belirlemek amacıyla gaz kromatografi kütle spektrometresi (GC-MS) kullanarak yaptıkları analizlerde, mevcut maksimum bileşik miktarının %42.11'lik oranda Eikosan adlı bir yağ asidi olduğu belirlenmiş ve bu yağ asidinin de antibakteriyel aktiviteden sorumlu olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Mazinani vd. (2015) tarafından yapılan çalışmada, soğutulmuş depolama sırasında Lactobacillus acidophilus içeren peynir üzerinde toz halindeki S. platensis’in etkisi incelenmiştir. Çalışma sonunda, peynirlerin depolanması sırasında S. platensis'in L. acidophilus'un gelişimini stimüle ettiği gösterilmiştir.Abd El-Monem vd. (2018) tarafında yapılan çalışmada, S. platensis'in antimikrobiyal aktivitesi %70'lik metanol, etanol ve aseton içerisinde farklı pH değerlerinde (8.0, 9.0, 10.0, 11.0 ve 12.0) hazırlanarak bazı patojen bakterilere karşı test edilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre, Staphylococcus aureus NCTC7447'nin maksimum inhibisyonu aseton ekstraktında pH 8 ve 10'da gözlenirken, E. coli NCTC10418 için pH 8'de olduğu gösterilmiştir. Metanol ekstresi S. aureus NCTC-7447 üzerine pH 8’de maksimum 20.0 mm inhibisyon gösterirken, pH 8'de etanol ekstresi ile 17.00 mm olarak rapor edilmiştir. SONUÇ Yapılan çalışmalara bakıldığında; Spirulina platensis'in farklı miktarlarda çeşitli alkol ekstraktları ve pH’larda patojen bazı bakteriler üzerine antibakteriyel etkileri gösterilmiş fakat starter kültür üzerine etkileri ya kültür bakterilerini stimüle ettiği ya da herhangi bir pozitif ve negatif etkiyle karşılaşılmadıkları şeklinde sonuçlarla karşılaşılmıştır. Bu çalışmada, kuru formda S. platensis ile metanol ekstraktlarının çalışılan tüm konsantrasyonlarında test edilen peynir starterleri üzerinde etkili bir antibakteriyel aktivite göstermediği belirlenmiştir. Dolayısıyla, özellikle mikroalglerden biri olan S. platensis'in, fermente süt ürünlerinde biyoaktif bileşikler sağlamak amacıyla kullanılabileceği görülmüştür. 1098 VI.

Bu sektörde çalışanların el hijyeninin yetersiz olması, potansiyel gıda kaynaklı hastalıkların yayılmasına ve müşteri güveninin zedelenmesine neden olabilir. Günümüzde gelişmiş endüstrilerden biri olan catering sektörü ve bu firmaların sunduğu yemek hizmetinin geniş kitlelere ulaşması, gıda hijyeninin özenle ele alınmasını gerektirmektedir. Ancak, tüketici sayısının arttığı ve servis süresinin kısıtlı olduğu durumlarda, catering firmaları gıda hijyenini göz ardı edebilmektedir. Her ne kadar catering çalışanları, gıda hijyeni konusunda uzmanlardan eğitim almış olsalar da catering sektöründeki gıda zehirlenmesi vakalarının çoğu personelin el hijyeni hataları ile ilişkilendirilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, Adana'da faaliyet gösteren bir catering firmasının çalışanlarının el hijyeni uygulamaları değerlendirilmiştir. Bu değerlendirmede, catering çalışanlarının eldivenli ve çıplak ellerinden alınan örneklerin mikrobiyal florası incelenmiştir. Bu amaçla, çalışmada, rastgele seçilen 2 catering çalışanının eldivenli ve çıplak ellerinden sürüntü yöntemiyle örnekler alınmıştır. Bu örnekler, toplam aerobik mezofilik bakteri yükü, koliform ve E. coli ile Salmonella spp., Staphylococcus aureus ve Listeria spp. açısından değerlendirilmiştir. Sonuç olarak, eldivenli elin aerobik mezofilik bakteri yükü (82x104 kob/cm2), çıplak elin aerobik mezofilik bakteri yükünden (50x103 kob/cm2) daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Koliform ve E. coli açısından incelendiğinde, eldivenli elin yüksek kontaminasyon gösterdiği (>1100 EMS/cm2), çıplak elin ise düşük kontaminasyonda olduğu (<3 EMS/cm2) belirlenmiştir. Örneklerin hiçbirinde Salmonella spp., Staphylococcus aureus ve Listeria spp. izole edilememiştir. Catering sektöründe çalışanların el hijyeninin değerlendirildiği bu çalışmada el hijyenindeki yetersizliğin, beklenenin aksine özellikle eldivenli ellerde daha belirgin olduğu görülmüş, bu da hijyen açısından eldiven kullanımının daha dikkat edilmesi gereken bir husus olduğunu göstermiştir. Sonuç olarak, eldiven kullanımı 1101 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EVALUATION OF EMPLOYEES IN A CATERING COMPANY IN TERMS OF HAND HYGIENE Abstract Hand hygiene is of vital importance, especially for companies operating in the food industry. Inadequate hand hygiene of employees in this sector can lead to the spread of potential foodborne diseases and damage customer confidence. The catering industry, which is one of the developed industries today, and the fact that the food services offered by these industries reach large masses requires that food hygiene be handled carefully. However, in cases where the number of consumers increases and service time is limited, catering industries could ignore food hygiene. Even though catering employees receive training in food hygiene from hygiene experts, most cases of food poisoning in the catering sector are associated with personal hand hygiene errors. In this study, hand hygiene practices of employees of a catering company operating in Adana were evaluated. In this evaluation, the microbial flora of samples taken from the gloved and bare hands of catering employees were examined. For this purpose, in the study, samples were taken by swab method from the gloved and bare hands of 2 randomly selected catering employees. These samples were evaluated for total aerobic mesophilic bacterial load, coliform and E. coli, as well as Salmonella spp., Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria spp. As a result, the microbial load of gloved hands (82x104 cfu/cm2) was found to be higher than that of bare hands (50x103 cfu/cm2). When examined for coliforms and E. coli, it was determined that gloved hands showed high contamination (>1100 MPN/cm2), while bare hands had low contamination (<3 MPN/cm2). Salmonella spp, Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria spp could not be isolated in any of the samples. In this study evaluating hand hygiene among personnel in the catering industry, it was observed that inadequacies in hand hygiene were more pronounced, contrary to expectations, particularly in gloved hands. This indicates that the use of gloves requires more attention in terms of hygiene. Consequently, in the absence of controlled glove usage, the potential risk of microbial contamination is likely to increase further.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Sanayileşme ile beraber ev dışında yemek yeme zorunluluğu son yıllarda artış göstermektedir. Artan taleple birlikte, toplu yiyecek hizmeti veren “catering” işletmelerinin sayısı ve verdikleri hizmet alanı da genişlemektedir (Bilgin ve Erkan, 2008). Köken itibari ile yabancı bir sözcük olan “catering”, yiyecek içecek hazırlama ve sunumu anlamına gelmektedir. Türk Dil Kurumu Yabancı Kelimeler Kurulu’nun “catering” sözcüğüne önerdiği Türkçe karşılık ise “yemek hizmeti’dir. Catering işletmeleri, sosyal amaçlı (evlilik törenleri, yıl dönümleri, doğum günleri, mezuniyet partileri gibi), iş amaçlı (toplantı ve kongreler, açılış törenleri ve kokteyller gibi) organizasyonları, endüstriyel tesisler, okul, hastane ve ulaşım birimlerinde talebe bağlı olarak toplu yemek hizmeti sunan ve ziyafet organizasyonlarını düzenleyen işletmelerdir (Altun Karadeniz ve Çetin, 2007). Dünyada catering sisteminin kökü milattan 4 bin yıl öncesine, Çin’e kadar uzanmaktadır. Catering sisteminin, Çin’in yanı sıra Antik Roma, Yunanistan ve Mısır’da da askerler için ve ticaret yollarında kullanıldığı görülmektedir. Orta Çağ’da catering sadece askerler ve ticaretle uğraşanlar için değil ayrıca maddi yönden varlıklı insanlar için eğlence sektöründe de kullanılmaya başlanmıştır. Almanya’nın belirli kurallar koyarak oluşturduğu catering sistemi 14. ve 15. Yüzyıllarda tüm Avrupa’da popülerleşmeye başlamıştır (Burgess, 2013). Ülkemizde ise hazır yemek sektörü ilk kez Osmanlı saray mutfaklarından yeniçeri ocağına devşirilmiştir. Son 20 yılda önce fabrika ve işyerlerine, sonra yemek sektörüne geçiş yapmıştır. 1960’lı yıllarda büyük şehirlerdeki fabrikaların yemekhane kurması, 1970-80’lerde tabldot firmalarının açılması ve 1990’larda yabancı sermaye yatırımlarıyla büyüyen hazır yemek sektörü, ülke ekonomisi ve turizmi açısından büyük bir öneme sahip olmuştur (Öndoğan, 2010). Tüketicinin sağlığının korunması açısından, çok sayıda insanın beslenme ihtiyacının karşılandığı toplu beslenme sistemleri hijyenik olmak zorundadır (Dündar vd., 2000). Gıda hijyeninin amacı gıdaların kalitesini olumsuz yönde etkileyecek faktörlerin ortadan kaldırılması ya da en aza indirilmesidir (Elverir ve Gönülalan, 2010). Gıda, üretimden tüketiciye ulaşana kadar olan süreçte, çeşitli kaynaklardan bulaşan mikroorganizmalarla kirlenebilmekte ve uygun koşullarda bu mikroorganizmalar hızla çoğalarak duyusal kalitenin bozulmasına, ekonomik kayıplara ve gıda kaynaklı hastalıkların ortaya çıkmasına neden olabilmektedir. Bulaşma kaynakları arasında, gıdaların işlenmesinde kullanılan kesme tahtaları, dilimleyici, karıştırıcı ve öğütücüler, işletme suyu, ortam havası, uygun olmayan koşullarda bekletilen çöpler, haşereler, kemiriciler ve hayvanların yer aldığı birçok faktör yer almaktadır (Bilici, 2008). Mikroorganizmaların gıdalara bulaşma yolları Şekil 1’de gösterilmiştir. 1104 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 9. Mikroorganizmaların Gıdalara Bulaşma Yolları (Van Schothorst, 1999). Bulaşı kaynaklarının en tehlikeli olanları patojen mikroorganizmalardır. Patojenler, gıdalara bulaştıktan sonraki uygun koşul ve sürelerde üreyerek ya da gıdada çoğalmadan bulunmaları halinde bile hastalık yapmaktadırlar (Bilici, 2008). Salmonella, E. coli, L. monocytogenes ve Staphylococcus aureus gibi bakteriler en sık karşılaşılan gıda zehirlenmesine neden olan bakteriler arasında yer alırlar (Anonymous, 2011-a). Mikroorganizmaların kontaminasyonu ve yayılması ile bunların olumsuz etkilerinin önlenmesinde temizlik ve dezenfeksiyonun büyük bir rolü bulunmaktadır (Şener ve Temiz, 2004). Temizlik, bir yüzey üzerinde mekanik ya da kimyasal etki gösteren ve estetik yönden görünümü bozan her türlü kirin ortadan uzaklaştırılmasıdır (Bilici, 2008). Dezenfeksiyon ise; temizlik aşamasından sonra ortamdaki ürüne kontaminasyon kaynağı olabilecek mikroorganizmaların tümünün öldürülmesi ya da en düşük düzeye indirilmesidir. Bu işlemde kullanılan maddelere dezenfektan denilmektedir (Anonymous, 2011-b). Mutfak, araç-gereç ve çalışma yüzeyleri yeterli derecede temiz olmadığında, gıdalar patojenlerle tekrar kontamine olabilmektedir. Riski minimuma indirmek için yüksek riskli gruplardaki araç-gereç (yiyeceklerle direk teması olan araç-gereç ve yüzeyler) ve çalışma yüzeylerinin temizliğinde sıcak su, deterjan ve dezenfektanların kullanılması gerekirken, düşük riskli gruplardaki (yiyeceklerle direk temas etmeyen duvar, raf vb. yüzeyler) araç-gereç ve yüzey temizliğinde ise sıcak su ve deterjan kullanılması yeterli olabilmektedir (Göbel, 2008). Ama bazı işletmelerde gıda ile temas eden yüksek riskli araç-gereç ve yüksek riskli yüzey temizliğinde genellikle düşük riskli gruplardaki araç-gereç ve yüzey temizliğinde kullanılan sıvı deterjanların kullanıldığı saptanmıştır (Çalışkan, 2006, Çelik ve Var, 2017). 1105 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Hatalı dezenfeksiyonun ve birçok gıda zehirlenmesinin ana nedeni, personelin dikkatsizliği ve bu konuda bilgi yetersizliğidir (Demirel, 2009). Hijyen uygulamaları konusundaki eğitimler; gıda bulaşmalarının önlenmesi için personelin gıda işletmelerindeki rolünün önemini anlamaları ve sorumluluklarının farkına varmaları açısından son derece önemlidir (Akbulut, 2010). İnsanın boğaz, burun, el, deri, bağırsak ve dışkısı bakterilerle yüklüdür (Bilici vd. 2006). Bu kaynağın bulaşma aracı olan en önemli organı ellerdir. El temizliği kişisel hijyenin en önemli adımlarından birisi olup, bulaşmış ellerle gıdaların ve servis malzemesinin kirletilmesi, gıda zehirlenmelerinin en önemli nedenini oluşturmaktadır (Demirel, 2009).Gıda kaynaklı hastalıkların bulaşmasında en fazla katkıda bulunan faktörler; çıplak elle temas, işleme ve hazırlama ekipmanlarının yetersiz temizlenmesi, enfekte veya asemptomatik kişiler tarafından gıdaların işlenmesidir. Gıdaların ellerle kontaminasyonu, salgın araştırmalarında belirlenen en önemli faktördür (CDC, 2006). Ellerde çok sayıda bulunabilen düşük enfektif dozlara sahip gıda kaynaklı patojenler gıdalara ve gıda dışındaki temas yüzeylerine kolayca aktarılabilmektedir (Todd vd., 2008a; Todd vd., 2008b, Todd vd., 2010). Eller kontamine veya kirli olduğunda, geçici patojenlerin elden tüketime hazır gıdalara bulaşmasını önlemek için etkili el hijyeni uygulamalarının yeterli olmayacağı Amerika Birleşik Devletleri Gıda ve İlaç Dairesi tarafından bildirilmektedir (FDA, 2017). Özellikle tüketime hazır gıdalara çıplak elle temasın önlenmesi ve bu gıda maddelerini kullanırken uygun mutfak eşyaları, bezler, tek kullanımlık eldivenler veya maşa gibi ekipmanların kullanılması gerektiği önerilmektedir (FDA, 2017). Gıda işletmelerinde eldiven kullanılmasının amacı, gıdanın fiziksel, kimyasal ve mikrobiyolojik kontaminasyonunu en aza indirmektir (Green vd., 2007). Çalışanlar eğitilmediğinde ve eldiven kullanımı uygun şekilde denetlenmediğinde hem gıda çalışanları hem de gıda güvenliği yöneticileri için yanlış bir güvenlik hissi sunmakta ve çapraz kontaminasyona yol açarak daha yüksek riskli durumlara neden olmaktadır (Todd vd., 2010; Valero vd., 2016). Gıda işletmelerinde el yıkama ve eldiven kullanımının yaygınlığı üzerine yapılan araştırmalarda, el hijyeni uygulamalarının gerektiği kadar sık gerçekleşmediği bildirilmektedir. Örneğin, personellerin gerektiğinde ellerini yıkamadıkları ve/veya gerektiğinde eldiven giymedikleri, çiğ ete dokunduktan sonra her zaman ellerini yıkamadıkları ve çiğ ete dokunduktan sonra her zaman eldivenlerini değiştirmedikleri saptanmıştır (Clayton vd. 2002; Green ve Selman, 2005). Uygun eldiven kullanımı, patojenlerin elden gıdaya transferini azalttığı, ancak eldiven kullanımının yanlış bir hijyen hissi yaratarak daha az el yıkama uygulamalarına yol açabildiği de bildirilmiştir (Green vd., 2007). 1106 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Bu çalışma; Adana'da catering hizmeti veren bir firmanın, halk sağlığını tehdit eden gıda kaynaklı mikroorganizmalara karşı, çalışan personelin el hijyeni uygulamalarını incelemek amacıyla kurgulanmıştır. 2. ARAŞTIRMA ve BULGULAR 2.1. MATERYAL Bu çalışmada, Adana'da faaliyet gösteren bir catering firmasının çalışanlarının el hijyeni uygulamalarını değerlendirmek amacıyla, rastgele seçilen 2 catering çalışanının eldivenli ve çıplak ellerinden sürüntü yöntemiyle alınan örnekler materyali oluşturmuştur. 2.2. YÖNTEM 2.2.1. Çalışanların Ellerinden Sürüntü Yöntemiyle Numune Alınması Bu çalışmada catering firmasından rastgele seçilen 2 personelin eldivenli ve çıplak elinden örnek almak için sürüntü yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Bu yöntemde, steril eküvyon çubuğu aseptik koşullarda tüpünden çıkarılarak uçtaki pamuk kısma değişik eğimler verdirilerek çalışanların eldivenli ve eldivensiz ellerine kuvvetlice bastırılmıştır. Bu sayede ellerdeki mikroorganizmaların pamuk ucunun tamamına geçmesi sağlanmıştır. Eküvyon çubuğu daha sonra hiçbir yere temas ettirilmeden içinde 5 ml dilüsyon sıvısı içeren tüpe yerleştirilerek tüp hızla laboratuvara ekim için götürülmüştür. Daha sonra aranan toplam aerobik mezofilik bakteri için Nutrient Agar, E. coli ve Koliform için Fluorocult® Lauryl Sulfate Broth, Salmonella spp. için Selenite Cystine Broth, Rappaport Vassiliadis Broth, Hektoen Enteric Agar, Xylose Lysine Deoxycholate Agar, Staphylococcus aureus için Egg Yolk Tellurite Emulsion içeren Baird Parker Agar, Listeria spp. için Buffered Listeria Enrichment Broth ve Palcam Agar besiyerleri kullanılarak ekim işlemleri gerçekleştirilmiştir (Anonymous, 2011-c). 2.3. BULGULAR Rastgele seçilen 2 çalışanın eldivenli ve çıplak ellerinden sürüntü yöntemiyle alınan örnekler, toplam aerobik mezofilik bakteri yükü, koliform ve E. coli ile Salmonella spp., Staphylococcus aureus ve Listeria spp. açısından değerlendirilmiştir. Sonuç olarak, örneklerin hiçbirinde Salmonella spp., Staphylococcus aureus ve Listeria spp. izole edilememiştir.Aerobik mezofilik bakteri yükü açısından değerlendirildiğinde, iki çalışanın eldivenli elinin aerobik mezofilik bakteri yükünün ortalaması (82x104 kob/cm2), çıplak elin aerobik mezofilik bakteri yükünün ortalamasından (50x103 kob/cm2) daha yüksek bulunmuştur (Çizelge 1).Koliform ve E. coli açısından incelendiğinde, eldivenli ellerin yüksek kontaminasyon gösterdiği (>1100 EMS/cm2), çıplak ellerin ise düşük kontaminasyonda olduğu (<3 EMS/cm2) belirlenmiştir (Çizelge 1). 1107 VI.

Bu nedenle işletmelerde uygulanan hijyen gerekliliklerinin sorgulanması olası riskleri ortaya koyabilecektir. Hijyen gerekliliklerinden en önemlilerden birisi de personel ve daha da önemlisi el hijyenidir. El hijyeninde dikkat edilmesi gereken koşullardan biri ellerin uygun yöntemle yıkanmasıysa diğeri de yıkamanın yetersiz kalabileceği durumlarda eldiven kullanımıdır. Ancak yapılan çalışmalar eldiven kullanımındaki hataların gıda güvenliğini daha çok tehdit edebildiğini göstermektedir. Valero vd. (2016), bu konuyla ilgili yaptıkları çalışmada eldiven kullanmamanın, eldivenlerin düzensiz değişimi ve yanlış kullanımının çapraz kontaminasyonu artırabileceğini ve gıda zehirlenmesinin ana nedenlerinden biri olabileceğini bildirmişlerdir.Erdoğan ve Pamuk (2020) tarafından yapılan bir çalışmada, gıda endüstrisinde çalışanların eldivensiz elleri ve yüzeylerde yapılan mikrobiyolojik analizler, Staphylococcus spp. ve Enterobacteriaceae bakterileri ile kontaminasyonun yaygın olduğunu göstermektedir. İzolat sayıları dikkate alındığında, %52 oranda en yüksek kontaminasyonun gıda çalışanlarının ellerine ait olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Eldiven kullanımının etkinliğini artırmak için eldiven değişiminden önce ve sonra ellerin yıkanmasının önemi de vurgulanmaktadır (Michaels vd., 2004). Yapılan bir çalışmada, Paulson (1996), eldiven takmadan önce eller yıkanmadığında E. coli sayısının arttığını (1 ve 3 saat sonra belirlendiğinde), ancak eller eldiven giymeden önce yıkandığında ise, 3 saatlik devamlı eldiven kullanımından sonra, mikroorganizma sayısında anlamlı bir artış olmadığını gözlemlemiştir. 1108 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Bu nedenle eldiven kullanımında, eldivenleri çıkardıktan sonra ve her eldiven değişiminde eldiven giymeden önce el yıkama işleminin gerçekleştirilmesi gerektiği vurgulanmaktadır. Eldiven kullanımında eldivenlerin bütünlüğünün korunması gerekliliği de oldukça önemlidir. Yapay tırnaklar ve takılar gibi faktörlerin eldivenlerin bütünlüğünü bozabileceği eldivenlerin yırtılmasına veya delinmesine yol açabileceği ve kontaminasyon kaynağı olabileceği belirtilmektedir (Gürel ve Taşçı, 2020). Tırnaklar ile ilgili yapılan bir çalışmada Dagnew vd. (2013), tırnaklarda antibiyotiklere dirençli S. aureus (%16) ve koagülaz negatif stafilokoklar (%33) tespit etmişler. Valero vd. (2016) yaptıkları çalışmada, eldivenlerin düzenli olarak değiştirilmesi gerektiğini ve kirli veya deforme olmuş eldivenlerin çıplak ellerden daha fazla kontaminasyon riski taşıdığını belirtmişlerdir.Perez-Rodriguez vd. (2006) yaptığı bir çalışmada, farklı gıdaların işlenmesi sırasında uzun süreli aynı eldiveni kullanmanın patojenlerin transfer riskini artırdığı bulunmuştur. Özellikle, L. monocytogenes gibi patojenlerin çiğ tavuktan pişmiş ete aktarılma riskinin bu şekilde arttığı tespit edilmiştir. Ancak, eldivenlerin düzenli olarak değiştirilmesinin ve kullanımının doğru şekilde yapılmasının bu riski azaltabileceği vurgulanmıştır.Birçok eldiven materyali aşırı nem birikmesine yol açmaktadır ve uzun süreli eldiven kullanımı da deride nem ve sıcaklık artışına neden olmaktadır. Bunun sonucu olarak da tırnakların içerisinde mikroorganizmaların birikmesine yol açarak mikrobiyal çoğalmayı teşvik edebileceği ve bu durumun çapraz kontaminasyon riskini artırabileceği vurgulanmaktadır. Bu durum aynı zamanda eldiven değiştirme işlemi sırasında da sorun yaratabilecek ve yine çapraz kontaminasyon riski söz konusu olabilecektir (Gürel ve Taşçı, 2020). Aynı zamanda eldiven kullanımının yanlış bir güvenlik duygusu yaratması ve çalışanların yeterince eğitilmemesi çapraz kontaminasyona sebep olabilecek daha yüksek riskli durumlara da yol açabilecektir (Todd vd., 2010).Bizim çalışmamızda da iki çalışanın elleri aerobik mezofilik bakteri, E. coli ve koliform bakteri açısından değerlendirildiğinde eldivenli ellerin yüksek kontaminasyon gösterdiği, çıplak ellerin ise düşük kontaminasyonda olduğu belirlenmiştir. Bu bağlamda, eldiven kullanımının gıda güvenliği üzerindeki etkilerini artırmak için çalışanların eldiven kullanımı konusunda yeterince eğitilmeleri ve bu önlemlerin doğru şekilde uygulanması, çapraz kontaminasyon riskini en aza indirmek için kritik öneme sahiptir. 3. SONUÇ Catering sektöründe çalışanların el hijyeninin değerlendirildiği bu çalışmada el hijyenindeki yetersizliğin, beklenenin aksine özellikle eldivenli ellerde daha belirgin olduğu görülmüş, bu da eldiven kullanımına daha dikkat edilmesi gereken bir husus olduğunu göstermiştir. Sonuç olarak, eldiven kullanımı kontrol edilmediği takdirde potansiyel mikrobiyal kontaminasyon 1109 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal riskinin artmasına neden olabilecektir. Bir üretim yerinde her türlü hijyen gereklilikleri yerine getirilse bile bir personeldeki hijyen eksikliği üretimi riske sokabilecektir. Bu açıdan araştırma yapılan catering firmasında gıda kaynaklı halk sağlığını tehdit eden mikrobiyal kontaminasyon riski değerlendirildiğinde, özellikle el hijyeni açısından işletmenin yetersiz olduğu gözlenmiştir. 1110 VI.

Dijitalleşmenin, müşterilerin satın alma davranışları (Kaya ve Okur, 2021), işletmelerin müşteri tercihleri, iş performansları üzerindeki etkileri (Uzkurt vd. 2022) ve işletmelerin iç süreçleri ve davranışları özellikle finansal açıdan nasıl etkilediği araştırılırken, insan kaynakları ile ilgili süreçlerin dijitalleşmesi ve bunun dijital pazarlama yönetimi ile olan ilişkisi çok fazla incelenmemiştir. İşletmelerin, dijitalleşmenin tüm kazanımlarından en iyi biçimde faydalanabilmeleri için tüm fonksiyonlarının bütünsel olarak dijitalleşmesi gerekmektedir. Pazarlamanın tarihsel gelişiminde müşteri odaklılığın modern dönemde oluşmaya başladığı görülmektedir. Modern pazarlama döneminde dijitalleşme ekonomik yapı üzerinde doğrudan etkiliyken, pazarlama üzerinde dolaylı olarak etkili olmuştur. Fakat internet teknolojilerinin gelişmesiyle günümüz dünyasında dijitalleşmenin doğrudan pazarlama üzerinde de etkili olduğu görülmektedir (Şengül, 2019). Dijital pazarlama literatürü incelendiğinde dijital pazarlama kanallarının müşteri ilişkileri, halkla ilişkiler ve insan kaynakları gibi departmanlarda kullanımının işletmeye sağlanacak toplam faydayı arttıracağı yönünde yaklaşımlar göze çarpmaktadır (Rocha vd., 2013). Dijital pazarlama tekniklerinin insan kaynakları alanında kullanımı, işe alım fonksiyonunda eylem alanının genişlemesine ve farklı kanalların kullanılmasına, dış müşteri ve iç müşteri etkileşiminin dijital kanallar aracılığıyla artmasına, çalışan performans ölçümünde daha etkin ve objektif dijital teknolojilerin kullanılmasına, marka yönetimi teknikleriyle işveren markası kavramının oluşturulmasına olanak tanımıştır (Mihalcea, 2017). Müşteri odaklı yaklaşımın içsel pazarlama anlayışı ile örgüt içinde benimsenmesi örgütsel bağlılık üzerinde olumlu katkılar sağlamıştır (Collins ve Payne, 1991). Bu bağlamda bu araştırmanın amacı dijitalleşmenin pazarlama yönetimi ve insan kaynakları yönetimi üzerindeki etkisini yenilikçi ve bütünsel bir yaklaşımla ele alarak literature teorik bir katkı sağlamaktır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal DIGITAL HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGEMENT AND DIGITAL MARKETING MANAGEMENT; INNOVATIVE COOPERATION Abstract Businesses are highly affected by digitalization, and these effects are directly related to all processes involving internal and external stakeholders in a business (Bajer, 2017). While investigating how digitalization affects customers' purchasing behavior (Kaya and Okur, 2021), businesses' customer preferences, its effects on business performance (Uzkurt vd., 2022), and how it affects an organization's internal processes and behaviors, especially financially, human resources The digitalization of processes related to digital marketing and its relationship with digital marketing management have not been examined much. To make the most of all the gains of digitalization, businesses must start dealing with the holistic digitalization of the entire business. It is seen that customer focus, one of the most important issues in the historical development of marketing, began to emerge in the modern period. In the modern marketing era, while digitalization has a direct impact on the economic structure, it has an indirect impact on marketing. However, with the development of internet technologies, it is seen that digitalization is also effective on direct marketing in today's world (Şengül, 2019). When the digital marketing literature is examined, approaches stand out that the use of digital marketing channels in departments such as customer relations, public relations and human resources will increase the total benefit to the business (Rocha et al., 2013). The use of digital marketing techniques in the field of human resources has enabled the expansion of the field of action and the use of different channels in the recruitment function, the increase of external and internal customer interaction through digital channels, the use of more effective and objective digital technologies in employee performance measurement, and the creation of the employer brand concept with brand management techniques. (Mihalcea, 2017). Adoption of the customeroriented approach within the organization with the internal marketing approach has made positive contributions to organizational commitment (Collins and Payne, 1991). In this context, the aim of this research is to make a theoretical contribution to the literature by addressing the impact of digitalization on marketing management and human resources management with an innovative and holistic approach.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ İşletmelerin dijitalleşmesi, günümüz rekabetçi iş ortamında avantaj sağlamak ve başarılı olabilmeleri için kaçınılmaz bir gerekliliktir. Başka bir deyişle, günümüz işletmeleri için dijitalleşme bir seçenekten ziyade hayati bir gereklilik haline gelmiştir. Dijitalleşme, işletmelerin geleneksel iş modellerini, süreçlerini ve yönetim yaklaşımlarını dijital teknolojilerle dönüştürerek daha verimli, esnek ve müşteri odaklı bir yapıya geçiş yapmalarını ifade etmektedir. Özellikle günümüzde hızla değişen iş ortamlarında, dijitalleşme sayesinde işletmeler daha hızlı kararlar alabilir, müşteri taleplerine daha çabuk yanıt verebilir ve pazardaki trendlere daha çabuk adapte olabilirler. Ayrıca dijitalleşme, işletmelerin veri analitiği ve yapay zekâ gibi alanlardan da faydalanarak daha stratejik alanlarda bilgiye dayalı kararlar almasını sağlar. Bu nedenle, işletmelerin dijitalleşme sürecine yatırım yapmaları ve bu alanda sürekli olarak kendilerini güncellemeleri başarılı olabilmeleri için kritik önem kazanmaktadır. Dijitalleşme sürecinde işletmelerin önemli fonksiyonlarından olan pazarlama yönetimi ve insan kaynakları yönetimini bütünsel olarak ele alması gerekmektedir. Bu çalışmada bu iki fonksiyonunun dijitalleşmeden nasıl etkilendikleri ve yenilikçi, işbirlikçi yaklaşımları teorik olarak ele alınmıştır. 1. DİJİTAL İNSAN KAYNAKLARI YÖNETİMİ İnsan kaynakları yönetimi, işletmelerin hedeflerine ulaşabilmesi için gerekli olan faaliyetleri gerçekleştirecek yeterli sayıda, kalifiye elemanın işe alımı, eğitimi, geliştirilmesi, motivasyonu ve değerlendirilmesi sürecidir (Aytaç, 1997). Başka bir tanıma göre, işletmeye çalışan tedariği sağlamasının (Bingöl, 2003) yanında işe alınan çalışanın eğitimi, geliştirilmesi, değerlendirilmesi ve işletmenin hedeflerine ulaşma doğrultusunda çalışanların yasalara da uyularak, etkin yönetilmesini sağlayan işlev ve çalışmaların tümüdür. Bu tanımlamalardan da anlaşılacağı üzere insan kaynakları yönetiminin başlıca fonksiyonu olarak işe alım gösterilirken, çalışanların değişen dünyaya uyum sağlayabilmeleri adına gerçekleştirilen diğer faaliyetler de insan kaynakları yönetiminin altında ele alınmaktadır. Dolayısıyla sürekli dijitalleşen ve teknolojinin önem kazandığı günümüz iş ortamında insan kaynaklarının dijitalleşmesi ve bu alana yatırım yapılması bir zorunluluk haline gelmiştir. İnsan kaynakları yönetiminin dijitalleşmesi süreci, adayın başvuru sürecinden başlamakta ve işletmedeki diğer çalışanların elde tutulmasına kadar giden birçok farklı alanda karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Özellikle de başvuran aday sayısının oldukça yüksek olduğu işletmelerde bu tür yeniliklerin kullanılması süreçlerin etkin ve verimli bir şekilde ilerlemesine katkı sağlamaktadır (Nivlouei, 2014). İnsan kaynakları yönetim süreçlerinin dijitalleştirilmesi, işletmelerin daha rekabetçi olmaları, çalışan 1116 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal deneyimlerinin iyileştirilmesi ve işletme performansını artması beklenmektedir. Ancak bu süreçte güvenliğin ve gizliliğin korunması da önemlidir, bu yüzden dijitalleşme adımları dikkatlice planlanmalı ve uygulanmalıdır. - Alım ve İşe Yerleştirme: Dijitalleşme, işe alım süreçlerini hızlandırır ve daha etkin hale getirir. Online başvuru formları, dijital CV değerlendirme sistemleri, video mülakatları gibi araçlar kullanılarak adaylar daha hızlı ve verimli bir şekilde değerlendirilebilir. - Eğitim ve Gelişim: Dijital platformlar aracılığıyla çalışanlara çevrimiçi eğitimler sunulabilir. Bu eğitimler, çalışanların kariyerlerini geliştirmelerine ve yeni beceriler kazanmalarına olanak tanır. - Performans Değerlendirme: Dijitalleşme, performans yönetimi süreçlerini otomatikleştirerek geri bildirimleri ve performans değerlendirmelerini daha objektif ve etkili hale getirir. Performans verileri, dijital platformlarda tutularak daha kolay erişilebilir hale gelir. - Çalışan İlişkileri ve İletişim: İç iletişim araçları ve dijital platformlar, çalışanların birbirleriyle etkileşimini artırır ve şirket kültürünü güçlendirir. Ayrıca, uzaktan çalışma gibi esnek çalışma modellerini destekleyerek çalışan memnuniyetini artırabilir. - İş Süreçlerinde Verimlilik: Otomatikleştirilmiş işlemler ve dijital platformlar, iş süreçlerinin daha verimli ve hatasız yürütülmesini sağlar. Bu da insan kaynakları departmanının daha stratejik görevlere odaklanmasına olanak tanır. Elbette ki rekabet avantajı elde etmek isteyen işletmeler için yalnızca insan kaynakları yönetim alanının dijitalleşmesi yeterli olmayacaktır. İnsan kaynakları yönetimine ek olarak, işletmenin diğer fonksiyonlarının da özellikle pazarlama alanının bu değişime uyum sağlaması ve bu yönde stratejiler oluşturulması çok daha doğru olacaktır. 2. DİJİTAL PAZARLAMA YÖNETİMİ Dijitalleşme, bilgi, belge ve dokümanların tümünün bilgi işlem teknolojileri kullanılarak dijital ortamlara aktarılması sürecini ifade eder. Bu yeni ortamlar, dijital olarak adlandırılır ve bilgilerin daha kolay erişilebilir ve işlenebilir hale gelmesini sağlar (Erkan, 2020). Teknolojinin hızla ilerlemesiyle birlikte dijitalleşme sürekli olarak artmaktadır. Bu dijital dönüşüm, işletmelerin pazarlama faaliyetleri aracılığıyla hedef kitlelerini etkileme ve onlara daha hızlı erişim sağlama kapasitesini artırmaktadır. Dijital pazarlama, işletmelerin belirledikleri hedeflerine internet, sosyal medya, web siteleri, e-postalar gibi iletişim araçlarını kullanarak ulaşmalarını sağlayan bir pazarlama stratejisidir (Karahasan, 2012). Çevrimiçi platformlarda 1117 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal uygulanan dijital pazarlama işletmenin diğer fonksiyonlarıyla bütünsel olarak ele alındığında ilişki pazarlaması, işletme yönetimi ve insan kaynakları yönetimine katkı sağlamaktadır. Dijital pazarlama işletmelerle tüketicilerin etkileşimlerine de önemli katkılar sağlamıştır. Bunların en önemlileri şöyle sıralanabilir (Bala, 2018): • İşletme ve müşteriler arası artık çift yönlü ilişki kurulabilmektedir. • Müşterilerin 7/24 hizmet alabilme ve pek çok ürünü karşılaştırabilme imkanı bulunmaktadır. • Tüketicilerin ürünlerle ilgili kendi aralarında çevrimiçi bilgi paylaşma imkanı bulunmaktadır. • Tüketiciler ürünlere daha kolay ulaşmakta ve daha hızlı satın alabilmektedirler. Pazarlamanın dijitalleşmeden yoğun şekilde etkilenmesi işletmelerde yeni çalışan rollerinin de ortaya çıkmasına neden olmaktadır. İçerik sorumlusu, veri bilimcisi, çok kanallı pazarlama sorumlusu bu rollerden sadece bir kaçıdır. Oluşan yeni roller, insan kaynakları yönetiminin işe alım, eğitim ve performans ölçümü gibi fonksiyonlarıyla da yakından ilgili olduğundan, insan kaynakları yönetiminin de dijitalleşmeye uyum sağlaması beklenmektedir. Dolayısıyla işletmelerin dijitalleşme fırsatlarından faydalanmak için tüm fonksiyonlarının özellikle pazarlama ve insan kaynakları fonksiyonlarının bütünsel olarak ele alınması bir zorunluluk haline gelmiştir (Çetin, 2018). 3. DİJİTAL İNSAN KAYNAKLARI YÖNETİMİ VE DİJİTAL PAZARLAMA YÖNETİMİ Eskiden işletmeler rekabet avantajı sağlamak için belirli bir alanı dijitalleştirmeye odaklanabilirlerken, günümüzde bu durum değişmiştir. Artık işletmelerin sadece bir fonksiyonunun dijitalleştirilmesi yeterli değildir; tüm işletme fonksiyonlarının dijitalleştirilmesi gerekmektedir. Bunun başlıca sebepleri (Collins ve Payne, 1991). - İşletme fonksiyonları arasında entegrasyon, verimlilik açısından kritiktir. Bir fonksiyon dijitalleştirilirken, diğerleriyle uyumlu olmalıdır. Tüm fonksiyonların dijitalleştirilmesi, süreçlerin daha iyi entegre edilmesine ve verimliliğin artmasına yardımcı olur. - Veri Akışı ve Analitik Yetenekler: İşletmelerin başarısı giderek daha fazla veriye dayanmaktadır. Tüm fonksiyonların dijitalleştirilmesi, veri akışını sağlamakta ve işletmeye kritik kararlar için gerekli olan analitik yetenekleri sağlamaktadır. - Operasyonel Esneklik ve Kriz Yönetimi: Dijitalleşmiş işletmeler, operasyonel esneklikleri sayesinde kriz zamanlarında daha iyi adapte olabilmektedirler. Uzaktan 1118 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal çalışma, çevrimiçi satış ve diğer dijital süreçler, işletmelerin iş sürekliliğini sağlamalarına yardımcı olmaktadır. - Müşteri Deneyimi ve Rekabet Gücü: Tüketici beklentileri hızla değişmekte ve müşteri deneyimi rekabet avantajı sağlamanın anahtarı haline gelmektedir. Sadece pazarlama veya satış değil, tüm işletme fonksiyonlarının dijitalleştirilmesi iç ve dış müşteri deneyimini geliştirmeye ve rekabet gücünü artırmaya yardımcı olmaktadır. Dijital pazarlama stratejileri ve kanalları insan kaynakları yönetimi alanında da etkin araçlar olarak kullanılmaya başlanmıştır. Dijital pazarlama uygulamalarının insan kaynakları yönetiminde de kullanılabilmesi işe alım konusunda alanların genişlemesine, iç müşteri uygulamalarıyla çalışan bağlılıklarının ve performanslarının artmasına, iç ve dış müşteri etkileşiminin artmasına olanak sağlamıştır. 4. SONUÇ İnternet teknolojilerinin gelişmesi ve kullanımının yaygınlaşması pek çok alanda etkili olduğu gibi pazarlama yönetimi ve insan kaynakları yönetimi alanında da etkili olmuştur. İşletmelerin sürdürülebilir rekabet avantajı sağlayabilmeleri için dijitalleşme stratejilerini pazarlama yönetimi ve insan kaynakları yönetimi alanında bütünsel olarak yürütmeleri gerekmektedir. Dijital pazarlama stratejilerinin insan kaynakları alanında da kullanılabilmesi, işe alım performans yönetimi, çalışan etkileşimi, dış müşteri etkileşimi ve iş veren markası yaratma gibi konularda etkinliğin ve verimliliğin artmasına olanak tanımıştır. Özellikle iç müşteri tarafından çalışılmak istenen bir işletme olmak, yüksek çalışan aidiyetlerinin yaratılması konusunda personel adaylarına doğru mesajı vermek konusunda da doğru dijital pazarlama stratejilerinin oluşturulması önem taşımaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı dijitalleşmenin pazarlama yönetimi ve insan kaynakları yönetimine etkisinde işbirlikçi bir yaklaşım olduğunu teorik olarak ortaya koymak ve bu alanda kısıtlı çalışma olduğundan literatüre katkı sağlayabilmektir. 1119 VI.

Bu teknolojiye ayak uydurmak için insan gücü ve üniversal tezgâhlardan uzaklaşılarak yerine bilgisayar kontrollü sistemler zorunlu hale gelmiştir. Cnc plazma tezgahları da bu teknolojide yer edinmiştir. Plazma kesim teknolojisi ile kesme işlemi yaparken kesim kalitesini maksimum seviyeye ulaştırmak için malzemenin kalınlığına göre uygun hız ve amper verilmesi gerekmektedir. Uygun amper ve hız verilmediğinde malzemenin arka yüzeyinde çapaklar meydana gelmekte ve istenilen ölçüde kesim elde edilememektedir. Bu çalışmada 1500x3000 mm kesme alanıne sahip 120 Amper güç kanağı kullanılarak hava ile 1-15 mm arasındaki malzemelerin istenilen ölçüde kesme işlemi için hız ve amper parametreleri oluşturulmuştur. Deneysel çalışmalar sonucunda malzemenin kalınlığı arttıkça kesme hızı azalırken kesme amperinin arttığı tespit edilmiştir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Cnc Plazma Kesim, Kesme Amperi, Kesme Hızı 1122 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal DETERMINATION OF SPEED AND AMPERAGE PARAMETERS IN CNC PLASMA AIR CUTTING PROCESSES Abstract In today's technology, competition in manufacturing has increased considering factors such as low cost, fast production and precision. In order to keep up with this technology, manpower and universal machines have been moved away from computer-controlled systems instead. Cnc plasma machines have also gained a place in this technology. When cutting with plasma cutting technology, the appropriate speed and amperage must be given according to the thickness of the material in order to maximize the cutting quality. When the appropriate amperage and speed are not given, burrs appear on the back surface of the material and the desired cut cannot be achieved. In this study, speed and amperage parameters were created for cutting materials between 1-15 mm with air to the desired size by using a 120 Ampere power supply with a cutting area of 1500x3000 mm. As a result of experimental studies, it was determined that as the thickness of the material increases, the cutting speed decreases and the cutting amperage increases. Keywords: Cnc Plasma Cutting, Cutting Amperage, Cutting Speed 1123 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Computer Numerical Control (CNC), basit Numerical Control (NC) fonksiyonlarını sağlayarak bünyesinde bilgisayar sistemi bulunduran, parça programlarının tanımlanarak malzemelerin işlenmesinde kullanılan mekanik bir sistemdir. CNC plazma teknolojisi ise üç eksende malzemeye temas etmeden belli bir yükseklikte gerçekleşen metal kesme işlemidir.CNC işleme; otomotiv, havacılık, inşaat ve tarım da dâhil olmak üzere çok çeşitli endüstrilere uygun olan otomobil çerçeveleri, cerrahi ekipmanlar, uçak motorları, dişliler, el ve bahçe gibi çeşitli ürünler üretebilen bir üretim sürecidir. Süreç, özel olarak tasarlanmış bir parça veya ürün üretmek için iş parçasından gerekli malzemeyi çıkaran, mekanik, kimyasal, elektrik ve termal süreçler de dâhil olmak üzere, birkaç farklı bilgisayar kontrollü işleme operasyonunu kapsar (Mamadjanov vd, 2021) Elektriksel olarak iletken hale gelen plazma, arkla ısıtılmış en azından kısmen iyonize olan bir gazdır. Plazma herhangi bir elektrik arkında oluşurken, plazma arkı bir torc sayesinde daraltılan bir yoğunlaşma etkisiyle oluşan patlamadır. Genel olarak malzemelerin kesiminde kullanılan geleneksel plazma sistemleri, yaygın olarak 20-150 mm kalınlık mesafesinde kesimi gerçekleştirmektedir. Günümüz hassas plazma sistemleri ise Hassas olarak kesim işlemini yerine getiren lazer kesim sistemleri, 1-12 mm kalınlığı mesafesindeki malzemeleri keserken; günümüzde kullanılan hassas plazma sistemleri lazer sistemlerine yaklaşık hassasiyette kesim yapabilme konusunda geliştirilmektedirler (Apay ve Egelioğlu, 2018).İmalat ve sanayide yaygın olarak kullanım alanına sahip olan plazma ile kesim, otomasyon uygunluğu ile üretim hattı sahasına, düşük maliyet ile verimli yatırım oranlarına, kesim hızının yüksek oluşu ve kesim kalitesinin sürekli olarak iyileştirilmesi ile olanaklar sunmaktadır. İş makineleri, gemi inşası, basınçlı kapların üretimi, vagon yapımı gibi imalat sektöründe yoğun olarak plazma kesim metodu ile karşılaşılmaktadır (Kutlu vd, 2005).Kesim işlemi yapılacak iş parçası üzerinde lokal bir bölgenin eritilerek yok edilmesi, daraltılarak yoğunlaştırılan bir ark sayesinde gerçekleştirilir. Buna plazma arkı ile kesim işlemi adı verilir. Torc ağzından yüksek hızlarda çıkan iyonize gazlar tarafından yüksek sıcaklığa maruz kalmış ve hal değiştiren metal, kesim bölgesinden uzaklaştırılır. 10000 ve 14000 °C sıcaklıkta çalışan plazma arkı, iyonize hale gelen gazın dönüşümüdür (Karkın, 2006; Akşahin, 2009).Plazma ile kesmede önemli parametreler gaz, güç kaynağı ve kesme hızıdır. Şekil 1’de görüldüğü gibi torcun yüksekliği de önemlidir. Parametreler arasındaki ilişkiler kesmede elde edilecek kaliteyi tanımlar. 1124 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Gaz parametreleri; Plazma ile kesme işleminde 6-8 bar basıncında gaz kullanılmaktadır. Kesme işleminde kullanılan gazlar hava, karbon, hidrojen gibi gazlardır. Bu gazlara bağlı olarak kesme kalitesi değişim göstermektedir. (Kutlu, 2005) Şekil 1. Plazma ile kesim parametreleri (Kutlu vd,2005) Materyal ve Metot Tokat Niksar sanayi bölgesinde 1500x3000 mm kesim alanına sahip üç eksenli CNC plazma kesim tezgâhı kullanılarak farklı kalınlıktaki metal malzemelerin kesim işleminde minimum deformeler ile yüksek kalitede işlenmesi için uygun hız ve amper parametreleri belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. 1500x3000 mm işleme alanına sahip tezgâhlarda hava ile 15 mm kalınlığına kadar metal malzeme kesebilmesi için 120 amper güç kaynağı kullanmak gerekmektedir. Hız ve amper parametrelerinin belirlenmesinde kullanılan Şekil 2’deki CNC plazma kesim tezgâhı 120 amper güç kaynağına sahiptir. Şekil 2. St37 malzemesinin kesim işleminde kullanılan CNC plazma tezgâhı 1125 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Hız ve amper ayarı kesimin kalitesini belirleyen en önemli parametrelerdir. CNC plazma kesim tezgâhlarının en zor kestiği form daire şeklindeki çizimlerdir. Farklı çaplarda daireler keserek uygun kesme hızı-amper ayarı parametresi elde edilmiştir. Şekil 3’te görüldüğü gibi malzemenin kalınlığına göre düzgün amper ve hız belirlenmemesinden dolayı hatalı kesim işlemi olmuştur. Şekil 4’teki uygulamada hız 750 mm/dk, amper ayarı 85 amper olarak verilmiştir. Şekil 3. Hız ve amper ayarının hatalı belirlenmesi CNC plazma kesim tezgâhının imalatından sonra farklı kalınlıklarda malzemeler kesilerek en düzgün kesim kalitesini elde edilebilecek parametreler Tablo 1’de verilmiştir. Kesim işlemi malzeme türüne göre örneğin çelik, alüminyum ve St37 gibi malzemeler de hız-amper ayarı değişkenlik göstermektedir. Endüstriyel uygulamalarda yaygın olarak St37 malzemesi kullanılmaktadır. Bu nedenle deneysel çalışmada St37 malzemesi kullanılarak kesme parametresi oluşturulmuştur. Tablo 1 CNC Plazma kesim tezgâhının kesme parametresi Malzeme Kalınlığı (mm) Amper (A) Kesme Hızı (mm/dk) 1-2 65 2700 2,5-3-4 75 2200 5-6-7 80 1600 8-9-10 90 1000 11-12-13 95 750 14-15 100 500 1126 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Kesimin kalitesi sadece malzeme türüne, ampere ve kesme hızına bağlı değildir. Kesim esnasında oluşan titreşimler de kesim kalitesini etkilemektedir. Bu titreşimleri en aza indirmek için kutu profil yerine alüminyum ağır sigma profil kullanılmıştır. 15 mm kalınlığındaki parametre kullanılarak Şekil 4’teki kesim elde edilmiştir. Kesim işlemi tamamlandıktan sonra kesilen malzemenin ön ve arka yüzeyi kumpas ile ölçülmüştür. Ön yüzeyinde kesim istenilen ölçüdedir ancak arka yüzeyin ölçülerinin 1,5 mm az olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Şekil 4. Hız ve amper ayarının doğru belirlenmesi Bulgular ve Tartışma CNC plazma kesim tezgâhında farklı kalınlığa sahip ve kullanım alanları farklı olan malzemeler kesilerek sonuçları gözlemlenmiştir. CNC plazma kesim tezgâhlarında görülen en büyük hatalardan biri de kesilen malzemenin arka yüzeyinde çapak oluşmasıdır. Kesim işlemi sonrasında 2-15 mm kalınlığa sahip malzemelerin arka yüzeylerinde çapak oluşumu olmadığı tespit edilmiştir.Kesilen malzemeler 65 amper ve 2700 mm/dk’da kesilmiştir. Malzemelerin kesme işlemini yaparken, kesim kalitesini ölçmek için basınç ayarları değiştirilmiştir. Şekil 5’te görüldüğü gibi lazer kesime yakın çapaksız temiz bir kesim elde edilmiştir. 1127 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 5. 2 mm kalınlığındaki St37 malzemenin kesim işlemi 4 mm kalınlığındaki St37 malzemesinden kesilen iş parçası Şekil 6’da verilmiştir. Kesilen iş parçası, 75 amper ve 2200 mm/dk’da kesilmiştir. Kesim esnasında malzemenin ısınmasından dolayı sacda esnemeler meydana gelmiştir. Bu esnemelerden kaynaklı, malzemenin arka yüzeyinde az miktarda çapak kaldığı gözlemlenmiştir. Şekil 6. 4 mm kalınlığındaki St37 malzemenin kesim işlemi 1128 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 5 mm kalınlığındaki St37 malzemesinden kesilen iş parçası Şekil 7’de verilmiştir. Seçilen iş parçası, 80 amper ve 1600 mm/dk’da kesilmiştir. Kesim herhangi bir hata olmadan başarılı bir şekilde tamamlanmıştır. Şekil 7. 5 mm kalınlığındaki St37 malzemenin kesim işlemi 6 mm kalınlığındaki St37 malzemesinden kesilen iş parçası Şekil 8’de verilmiştir. Şekil 8’de verilen iş parçası, 80 amper ve 1600 mm/dk’da kesilmiştir. Kesme işlemi sonucunda, malzeme kumpas ile ölçüldüğünde arka yüzeyinde istenilen ölçüden 0,5 mm az olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Şekil 8. 6 mm kalınlığındaki St37 malzemenin kesim işlemi 8 mm kalınlığındaki St37 malzemesinden kesilen iş parçası Şekil 9’da verilmiştir. Şekil 9’da verilen iş parçası, 90 amper ve 1000 mm/dk’da kesilmiştir. Kesme işlemi sonucunda, malzeme kumpas ile ölçüldüğünde arka yüzeyinde istenilen ölçüden 1 mm az olduğu tespit edilmiştir. 1129 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 9. 8 mm kalınlığındaki St37 malzemenin kesim işlemi 10 mm kalınlığındaki St37 malzemesinden kesilen iş parçası Şekil 10’da verilmiştir. Şekil 10’da verilen iş parçası, 90 amper ve 1000 mm/dk’da kesilmiştir. Torcun kesime başladığı yerde iz kaldığı tespit edilmiştir. Şekil 10. 10 mm kalınlığındaki St37 malzemenin kesim işlemi Deneysel çalışmalar sonucunda malzemenin kalınlığı arttıkça plazmadaki güç kaynağı amperin arttığı elde edilmiştir. Şekil 11’de görüldüğü gibi amper değerleri 60-100 amper arasında değişim göstermektedir. Dolayısıyla malzeme kalınlığı ile amper arasında doğru orantılı bir ilişki vardır. 1130 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 11. Malzeme kalınlığı-amper ilişkisi Elde edilen diğer bir deneysel sonuçta ise malzeme kalınlığı arttıkça kesme hızının azaldığı tespit edilmiştir. Şekil 12’de görüldüğü gibi hız değerleri 500-2700 mm/dk arasında değişim göstermektedir. Sonuç olarak malzeme kalınlığı ile hız arasında ters orantılı bir ilişki vardır. Şekil 12. Malzeme kalınlığı-hız ilişkisi Sonuç ve Öneriler Sonuç olarak malzeme kalınlığına bağlı olarak amper miktarı arttıkça kesme hızının azaldığı gözlemlenmiştir.1-5 mm kalınlık arasında kesilen St37 malzemelerde kesimler istenilen ölçü ve kalitede gerçekleştirilmiştir. 6 mm kalınlığındaki St37 malzemenin kesme işlemi sonucunda, kumpas ile gerçekleştirilen ölçümler neticesinde arka yüzeyinde istenilen ölçüden yaklaşık olarak 0,5 mm daha az olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Aynı şekilde 8 mm, 10 mm ve 15 mm kalınlığındaki St37 malzemelerin kesme işlemi sonucunda, tekrar ölçümler yapıldığında 1131 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal malzeme arka yüzeylerindeki ölçümlerin istenilen ölçüden sırasıyla 1 mm, 1,2 mm ve 1,5 mm daha olduğu gözlemlenmiştir Bulunan kesme hızı ve amper parametreleri, literatürde yapılan benzer çalışmalar ile uyumlu olduğu da tespit edilmiştir. Yapılan kesme işlemlerinde gaz olarak kuru hava kullanılmıştır. Hidrojen-argon veya Azot-Hava gibi karışım gazlar kullanılarak farklı değerler gözlemlenebilir. Belirlenen kesme hızı ve amper parametrelerinde kesilen farklı kalınlıktaki malzemelerin başka çalışmalarda yüzey pürüzlülük değerleri de çalışılabilir. 1132 VI.

Doğadan ilham alma, esinlenme anlamına gelen Biyomimikri kavramı farklı çalışma alanlarına katkı sağlamasının yanında çocuk ve doğa arasında köprü kurmaktadır. Dijitalleşen dünya gittikçe doğa yoksunluğuna sebep olmakta, modern yaşamın çıktıları çocukları doğal yaşamdan uzaklaştırmaktadır. Bu durumun bir sonucu olarak buluş yoluyla öğrenme, yaparak-yaşayarak öğrenme süreci olumsuz yönde etkilenen çocuklar, doğayla sınırlı etkileşimle gelişimlerini sürdürmektedirler. Rousaeau, Frobel, Dewey, Montessori’ye göre doğa çocuk için etkin bir öğrenme ortamı sunarak onu destekler. Çocuk için en basit ve en etkin kaynakları içinde barındıran doğa; çocukların becerilerini fark etmesini sağlayarak aktivite temelli uygulamaları gerçekleştirerek flora ve fauna türlerine ilişkin bilgi ve beceri edinmesine katkı sağlar. Ayrıca canlıları keşfetmesi, gözlem yapabilmesi, doğal çevre ile bağlantı kurması, doğadan ilham alması, farklı ürünler ortaya koyması, doğayı taklit etmesi, çıkarımlar yaparak gelişimlerinin desteklenmesi noktasında önemlidir. Çocuğun doğal öğrenme akışı içerisinde biyomimikri stratejisinin kavranılması güç olmakla birlikte eğitimcilerin bu alandaki yetkinliği, çocukların yaş ve gelişim düzeylerine uygun etkinliklerin hazırlanması, uygulanması kavramın anlaşılmasını kolaylaştıracaktır.

The concept of biomimicry, which means inspiration and inspiration from nature, contributes to different fields of study and builds a bridge between child and nature. The digitalizing world is increasingly causing nature deprivation, the outputs of modern life are distracting children from natural life. As a result of this situation, children who are adversely affected by the process of learning by invention, learning by doing and living, continue to develop with limited interaction with nature. According to Rousaeau, Frobel, Dewey, Montessori, nature supports it by providing an effective learning environment for the child. Nature, which contains the simplest and most effective resources for the child; it enables children to realize their skills and contributes to the knowledge and skills of the flora and fauna species by performing activity-based practices. In addition, it is important to explore living things, to be able to observe, to connect with the natural environment, to be inspired by nature, to produce different products, to imitate nature, to support their development by making inferences. While it is difficult to understand the biomimicry strategy in the natural learning flow of the child, the competence of educators in this field will facilitate the understanding of the concept of preparing and implementing activities appropriate to the age and development levels of children. In the light of these reasons, our work, which is a compilation, will include examples of activities related to biomimicry strategy. Keyword: Biomimicry, Nature, Child Development 1135 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Doğa, yüzyıllardır teknolojik gelişmelere ilham vererek hedeflenen amaçlar için taklit edilmiştir (Avcı, 2019). Doğa ile bütüncül bir iç içelik insanların yaşamını biçimlendirmiş, yeni ürünler, teknolojiler ortaya çıkarmasına da zemin hazırlamıştır. Böylece doğanın döngülerini ve sistemlerini merkeze alan aynı zamanda süreçleri, formlarını dikkate alarak doğanın kendi çözümlerini de gözlemleyen insanoğlu; doğanın sunduğu eşsiz olanaklardan beslenme fırsatı yakalamamıştır (Pekşen Akça& Arslan, 2022). Doğadaki canlılar karşılaştıkları problemlere ilişkin çeşitli çözümler üreterek pek çok bilim insanı ve tasarımcıya da ilham verip onları doğayı taklit etmeye yönlendirmiştir (Yıldız, 2012). Bu durum da yaşam, doğa, hayat anlamına gelen “ biyo” ile taklit anlamına gelen “mimikri” kelimelerinin doğmasına (Shimomura, 2010) ve doğadan öğrenme hareketliliği olarak tanımlanan biyomimikri kavramını geliştirilmesine neden olmuştur (Van der Hout, 2016).Doğadan öğrenme çocuk için yaşamsal deneyimler sunarak onu biliş, duygusal gelişim olarak deneyimsel açıdan geliştirir ve öğrenmede entelektüel kökler oluşturarak, doğayı kapsamlı şekilde açıklamasını sağlar. Çocuk için harika bir deneyim sağlayan bu durum birkaç yineleme yoluyla daha nitelikli öğrenme deneyimlerine dönüşür. Kendi öğrenme kapasitesi ve hızı doğrultusunda öğrenmeyi gerçekleştiren, merak ettikleri konularda derinlemesine araştırma imkânı yakalayarak bilginin kalıcılığını arttıran çocuk öğrenme motivasyonunu da bu sayede artırır (Bakioğlu ve Karamustafaoğlu, 2020; Arslan, 2022).Çocukları, yenilikçi çözümler yaratmada doğadan ilham alan bir yaklaşım olan biyomimikri ile tanıştırmak, iş birliği ve problem çözmeye teşvik etmek adına önemlidir (Williams, Dolenc, Barber ve Lai,2016). Durum ve olayları somutlaştırarak deneyimleme fırsatı bulmasının sağlanması enek öğrenme olanakları sunulmasının yanında çocuğun çeşitli permütasyonları sınama fırsatı bulabilmesini de sağlar (Pekşen Akça, 2022). Dahası sanatsal açıdan da farklı bakış açıları geliştirerek görsel tasarım ürünlerine ilham vermek ve doğanın tamamlayıcılarını inceleme fırsatı yakalamak çocuk için destekleyicidir. Doğa güzel olduğu kadar işlevseldir, bu yönünün çocuklar tarafından keşfedilmesi, incelenmesi, yaşama dair bazı problemlere de çözümler bulmalarını da kolaylaştırır, çocuğu soru sormaya, araştırmaya, üretmeye, buluş yapmaya, ilgilerini ortaya koyabilme noktasında da destekler (Yıldırım, 2019). Biyomimikri Etkinlik Örneği Doğadan ilham alarak biyomimikri’yi eğitim stratejisi olarak kullanmak çocukların yeni tasarımsal fikirler ortaya koymaları, doğada yer alan farklı türlere ait detaylı bilgi edinmelerini sağlar. Okul dışı öğrenme ortamlarında saha gözlemi yapma fırsatı yakalayan çocuk doğanın problem durumlarına ilişkin buldukları çözümleri detaylandırarak hayal gücünü de besler. 1136 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Mevcut uygulama örnekleri okul dışı ortamlarda doğa ile bütünleşerek gerçekleştirilebileceği gibi sınıf ortamında da biyomimikri temelli uygulamalarının yapılması mümkündür. Aşağıda sınıf ortamında biyomimikri uygulama sürecine ilişkin bir etkinlik örneği sunulmuştur. Süre: Zaman sınırlaması yoktur. Etkinliğin Amacı: ✓ Çocukların doğanın kendi problem durumlarına ilişkin bulduğu çözüm yollarını gözlemleyerek bir nesne tasarlamasını sağlamak (şemdiye, gözlük vb.) ✓ Canlı organizmaları tasarım ilhamı olarak görebilmek, ✓ Problem durumlarına ilişkin birden fazla çözüm geliştirmelerini sağlamak, Çocuklar için; ✓ Biyomimikri’yi örneklendirerek somutlaştırın ✓ Biyomimikri çalışmalarını konu alan fotoğraf ve video görsellerinden yararlanarak onlara örnekler gösterin ✓ Bir türün özelliklerinin, türün hayatta kalması için nasıl avantaj ve dezavantaj sağlayabileceğini hakkında bilgi verin. Etkinlik: Çocukları küçük gruplar haline ayırın ve kara- deniz hayvanlarının yer aldığı afişleri sınıftaki masalar üzerinde bırakın. Bu afişlerde yer alan canlıları yakından gözlemleyebilmeleri için sınıf ortamına bunları getirin. Örneğin solucan, tırtıl, karınca, kelebek ya da hamsi, Japon balığı vb. gibi. Çocuklarla canlıları incelemesi ve kendi aralarında afişlerdeki görselleri ile farklılıkların ve benzerliklerinin olup olmadığı hakkında konuşmalarını sağlayın. Sonrasında bu canlıları konu alan bazı sorular sorarak süreci oyunla destekleyin. Örneğin ben hem bir fanusta hem de denizde yaşarım, yüzgeçlerim ve solungaçlarım vardır? Sizce ben bir solucan olabilir miyim? Çocukları bu süreçte gözlemleyin ve çocuklara ipuçları verin. Beklenmedik ifadeler olduğunda gerekli açıklamaları yaparak başka açıdan bir ilişki varsa çocuğun yakalamasını sağlayın. Çocuklara afişte/ortamda yer alan canlıları incelemeleri, doğaya nasıl bir katkı sağladıklarını düşünerek ilham aldıkları yönlerini belirtmelerini isteyin. Çocukları herhangi bir canlıyı yapı ve işlev olarak incelemesini, iki/üç boyutlu bir ürün ortaya koymaları noktasında destekleyin. Bunun için farklı özelliklerde boyalar, artık materyaller, 3D yazıcıları kullanabilirsiniz. Etkinlik Çıktıları: ✓ Sizi şaşırtan söylemler oldu mu? 1137 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ✓ Çocuklarla doğadan ilham almanın yararlarının neler olacağı hakkında düşünmelerini sağlayın? ✓ Bilim insanlarının doğadan ilham alarak tasarladıkları nesneler var mı? ✓ Doğanın bir ilham kaynağı olarak görülmesi bizim için neden önemlidir? Değerlendirme: Çocuklar yaptıkları ürünleri ilişkin paylaşım yaparak doğadan ilham alarak hazırladıkları ürün ile organizma arasında nasıl bir bağ kurdular, tasarlamak istedikleri başka bir ürün var mı? Bu konu hakkında paylaşım yapılacaktır. SONUÇ Çocukların doğa ile doğrudan etkileşim içerisinde olmalarını sağlayacak biyomimikri etkinlikleri ile desteklenmeleri, eğlenceli bir öğrenme ortamı olmasının yanında farklı olay ve durumları deneyimleme olasılığı taşıdığı için çocuk için oldukça destekleyicidir. Doğanın işlevsel yönünün çocuklar tarafından keşfedilmesini, incelenmesini sağlayacak, çocuğun yaşama ilişkin problem durumlarına yönelik çözümler bulmasını kolaylaştıracak çalışmalarının yapılması çocuğun çeşitli konularda bilgi ve beceri edinmesi olanağı da yakalar. Biyomimikri çocuklarda yirmi birinci yüzyıl becerilerinden; yaratıcılık, eleştirel düşünme, problem çözme ve işbirlikçi olmayı desteklemektedir (Williams, Dolenc, Barber ve Lai,2016). Bu nedenle biyomimikri kavramı eğitimin her aşamasına entegre edilerek çocuklara sunulabilir, bir eğitim stratejisine dönüştürülebilir. Çocukların yaş ve gelişim düzeylerine uygun etkinliklerin alan uzmanlarınca planlanması, bireysel ve grup olarak canlıları anlamaları kolaylaştırır. Doğanın zarafetinden esinlenen, doğa ile güçlü bir ilişki kuran ve buluş yoluyla öğrenme fırsatı yakalayan çocuk sunacaktır. Doğanın kendi döngüsünün gözlemlenmesi, bir atığın başka bir canlı için kaynak olduğunun keşfedilmesi, sürdürülebilirlik, verimlilik, dengeyi yeniden sağlayabilme gibi konularda çocukların bilgi ve becerileri geliştirmesini sağlayacaktır. Kısacası doğaya karşı duyarlılığı gelişmiş çocukların yetişmesine zemin hazırlayacaktır. 1138 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ECONOMIC ANALYSIS OF OPEN VEGETABLE PRODUCTION IN BATMAN PROVINCE Abstract In this research, an economic analysis of openly produced vegetable products in Batman province was carried out for the 2022-2023 production period. In the research, data from Batman Provincial Directorate of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry was used. Within the scope of economic analysis, production costs related to vegetable production, gross production values obtained, gross profits, net profits and relative profits were determined. According to the results obtained from the research, it was determined that the average real production cost was highest in green pepper production (3646.83 TL/da) and lowest in melon production (427.54 TL/da). Average gross profit is 3528.17 TL/da in bell pepper production, 2306.72 TL/da in green pepper production, 1949.72 TL/da in tomato production, 3397.62 TL/da in cucumber production, 2481.17 TL/da in zucchini production, 2072.12 TL/da in watermelon production, 986.27 TL/da in melon production. TL/da is calculated as 1526.65 TL/da in white cabbage production, 1977.29 TL/da in lettuce production, and 3327.68 TL/da in eggplant production. It was determined that the highest value in terms of average net profit was obtained in eggplant production (2813.48 TL/da) and the lowest value in melon production (888.92 TL/da). When the relative profits in open field vegetable production in Batman province were examined, it was found that the highest relative profit was in watermelon production (4.98) and the lowest relative profit was in tomato production (1.33).

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Tarımda bitkisel üretim içerisinde önemli konumda bulunan sebzeler, bitkinin kendisinin veya meyvesinin pişmiş veya çiğ olarak tüketilebildiği gıda ürünleri olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Sebzeler insan ve hayvan beslenmesinde temel besin ürünleri olarak tüketilen kalori değeri yüksek gıdalardır. Bu nedenle Dünya çapında sebze üretimine önem verilmekte; ülkelerin ihracatında önemli bir yer almaktadır (Pirinç ve Akalp, 2023).Dengeli bir beslenme için vazgeçilmez bir gereklilik olan sebze üretiminde, kaynakların etkin kullanımının sağlanabilmesi hem tüketici hem üreticiler açısından önemlidir. Tarımsal verimliliği artırmak ve/veya girdi kullanımının optimizasyonu için kaynakların ne derece etkin kullanıldığının belirlenmesi gerekmektedir. Bu konuda yapılması gereken en önemli çalışmalardan biri ise, bölgelere göre üretim maliyetlerinin ve kârlılıklarının ortaya konulmasıdır (Hayran ve Gül, 2020). İşletmelerin üretimden sağlayacakları faydaya karşı oluşacak maliyetleri göz önünde bulundurmaları ve yönetim kararları alırken bu stratejik karşılaştırmaları hesaplamaları gerekmektedir. İşletmelerde etkin yönetimin sağlayabilmek için maliyetlerin doğru şekilde hesaplanmasına ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır (Bayramoğlu ve ark., 2021).Bugüne kadar birçok çalışmada ürünlerin maliyetleri hesaplanmıştır (Kadanalı ve ark., 2008; Bayraktar ve Saner, 2010; Engindeniz ve ark., 2010; Ağır ve Saner, 2014; Semerci ve Çelik, 2019; Örük ve Engindeniz, 2019). Literatürde ürünlerin üretim maliyetleri sıklıkla hesaplanmış olup üretim maliyetleri girdi maliyetleri ile ilişkili olarak sürekli değişmektedir. Bu nedenle çalışmaların zaman içinde tekrarlanarak tarımsal üretim maliyetlerinin hesaplanmasına ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Bu çalışmada Batman’da yaygın olarak üretimi yapılan biber (dolmalık), biber (sivri), domates, hıyar, kabak, karpuz, kavun, lahana, marul, patlıcanın üretim maliyetleri hesaplanmıştır. 2.MATERYAL VE YÖNTEM Çalışmanın materyalini ikincil nitelikli veriler oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmada Batman Tarım ve Orman İl Müdürlüğü Brifing Raporları, konu ile ilgili daha önce yapılmış tez, makale, kongre bildirileri, Türkiye İstatistik Kurumu (TÜİK) tarafından yayınlanmış kaynaklar ve istatistiksel kayıtlardan yararlanılmıştır.Çalışmada sebze üretim faaliyetinin karlılık durumunu ortaya koyabilmek için brüt kar, net kar ve nispi kar analizi yapılmıştır. Brüt karın hesaplanmasında, brüt üretim değerinden değişken masraflar çıkartılmıştır. Net karın hesaplanmasında brüt üretim değerinden üretim masrafları (değişken masraflar + sabit masraflar) çıkartılmıştır. Nispi kar ise brüt üretim değerinin üretim masraflarına bölünmesiyle hesaplanmıştır. 1142 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Çalışmada değişken masraflar: materyal masraflarını oluşturan fide/ tohum, gübre, zirai mücadele ilaçcı, elektrik (sulama) masrafları, işgücü masrafları ve diğer masraflar ile döner sermaye faiz karşılığından oluşmaktadır. Çalışmada sabit masraflar ise arazi kirası ve yönetim payından oluşmaktadır. Genel yönetim giderleri toplam değişken masrafların %3’ü olarak hesaplanmıştır. 3.ARAŞTIRMA BULGULARI Batman ilinde üretimi yapılan sebzelerin 2013 yılı itibariyle ekilen alan miktarları incelendiğinde, en yüksek ekilen alan büyüklüğü ve üretim miktarının karpuz ürününe ait olduğu belirlenmiştir. Karpuzun yıllar itibariyle ekilen alan miktarında meydana gelen değişim incelendiğinde ekilen alan miktarının 2019 yılından 2023 yılana gelindiğinde artış gösterdiği, 11690 da’dan 12224 da’a ulaştığı ortaya çıkmıştır.

Batman ili açıkta sebze üretiminde nispi karlar incelendiğinde en yüksek nispi karın karpuz üretiminde (4.98), en düşük nispi karın ise domates üretiminde (1.33) olduğu bulunmuştur.Bölgede ve Türkiye genelinde maliyet ve kârlılık analizlerinin uygun üretim faaliyetleri arasında seçim yapmak ve kaynakları etkin kullanmak için yol gösterici olacağı düşünülmektedir. Ele alınan ürünlerin üretiminin plansız bir şekilde artması halinde ciddi fiyat dalgalanmaları yaşanabilir. Bu ürünlerin, üretim miktarlarının artırılmasına ve bu ürünlerin yetiştiriciliğinin yaygınlaştırılmasına yönelik alınacak önlemlerde, piyasa talebindeki olası değişiklikler, ilgili tarımsal ve gıda sanayinin durumu ve ihracat olanakları göz önüne alınmalıdır. Enflasyon ve ithalattan kaynaklı tarımsal girdi fiyatlarındaki değişikliklerden dolayı ürün maliyet ve kâr düzeyleri değişeceğinden akademik açıdan benzer çalışmaların yapılmasına devam edilmesi gerekmektedir. 1148 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Tarım insanoğlunun yaşayabilmesi için vazgeçilmez bir faaliyet alanıdır. Dünya tarımına yön veren ve dünya tarımsal üretiminde rol alan ülkelerin ulaştıkları etkinlik tarımın profesyonel bir sektör olduğunu göstermektedir. Tarımın temel amacı 8 milyara yaklaşan dünya nüfusunun beslenme, barınma, giyinme ve tedavi ihtiyaçlarını karşılamaktır. Tarla bitkileri içerisinde yer alan özellikle tahıllardan buğday, mısır ve çeltik dünya nüfusunun beslenmesi açısından stratejik ürünlerdir. Ülkemizde kişi başına buğday tüketimi Gıda ve Tarım Örgütü (FAO, 2022) beslenme verilerine göre gelişmiş ülkelerin ortalama 1.5-2 katına yakındır. Arpa ve mısır yem sanayiinin temel girdilerini oluşturmakla birlikte, mısır aynı zamanda katma değeri yüksek endüstriyel ürünlere dönüşür (Kıymaz 2023). Bahsi geçen ürünlerin hepsinde dönem dönem iç talep ya da işlenmiş ürün ihracatına da bağlı olarak ithalat artma eğilimindedir (Bursa Ticaret Borsası[BTB], 2021). Dünyada sürdürülebilir gıda güvenirliliğinin sağlanmasında ve açlığın önlenmesinde bu ürünlerin talebi karşılayacak miktarda üretilmesi önemlidir (Bağcı ve ark., 2020). Küreselleşme ve rekabet koşullarındaki değişim ile, işletmelerin üretimden sağlayacakları faydaya karşı oluşacak maliyetleri göz önünde bulundurmaları ve maliyetlerin doğru şekilde hesaplanmasına ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır (Bayramoğlu ve ark., 2021).Bugüne kadar birçok çalışmada tarla bitkilerinin üretim maliyetleri hesaplanmıştır. Özellikle buğday (Gündoğmuş, 1998; Karadaş, 2016), silajlık mısır (Tuvanç ve Dağdemir, 2009), pamuk (Yılmaz ve Gül, 2015), mercimek (Karadaş ve ark., 2018), nohut (Acar ve ark., 2009) gibi ürünlerin üretim maliyetlerini hesaplayan çalışmalar yapılmıştır. Bu çalışmada Batman ilinde tarla bitkilerinin üretimine yönelik ekonomik analizin yapılması ve maliyeti etkileyen faktörlerin tespiti amaçlanmaktadır. 2.MATERYAL VE YÖNTEM Çalışmanın materyalini ikincil nitelikli veriler oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmada Batman Tarım ve Orman İl Müdürlüğü Brifing Raporları, konu ile ilgili daha önce yapılmış tez, makale, kongre bildirileri, Türkiye İstatistik Kurumu (TÜİK) tarafından yayınlanmış kaynaklar ve istatistiksel kayıtlardan yararlanılmıştır.Çalışmada tarla bitkileri üretim faaliyetinin karlılık durumunu ortaya koyabilmek için brüt kar, net kar ve nispi kar analizi yapılmıştır. Brüt karın hesaplanmasında, brüt üretim değerinden değişken masraflar çıkartılmıştır. Net karın hesaplanmasında brüt üretim değerinden üretim masrafları (değişken masraflar + sabit masraflar) çıkartılmıştır. Nispi kar ise brüt üretim değerinin üretim masraflarına bölünmesiyle hesaplanmıştır. 1153 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Çalışmada değişken masraflar: materyal masraflarını oluşturan tohum, gübre, zirai mücadele ilaçcı, su masrafları ve işgücü masrafları ile döner sermaye faiz karşılığından oluşmaktadır. Çalışmada sabit masraflar ise arazi kirası ve yönetim payından oluşmaktadır. Genel yönetim giderleri toplam değişken masrafların %3’ü olarak hesaplanmıştır. 3.ARAŞTIRMA BULGULARI 2023 yılı Batman ili tarla bitkileri ürünlerinin ekilen alan miktarları incelendiğinde, en yüksek ekilen alan büyüklüğü ve üretim miktarının buğday ürününe ait olduğu belirlenmiştir. Buğday ürününün yıllar itibariyle ekilen alan miktarında meydana gelen değişim incelendiğinde ekilen alan miktarının 2019 yılından 2023 yılana gelindiğinde azalış gösterdiği, 485391 da’dan 377752 da’a gerilediği ortaya çıkmıştır. 2023 yılı itibariyle ekilen alan miktarı bakımından ikinci sırada yer alan ürün 157830 da ile kırmızı mercimek olurken, onu sırasıyla 71212 da alan ile arpa, 58160 da ile mısır, 11335 da ile pamuk, 6340 da ile silajlık mısır, 1973 da ile nohut izlemektedir (Çizelge 1).2023 yılı itibarıyla Batman ili tarla bitkileri üretim miktarı bakımından ikinci sırada yer alan ürün 65099 ton ile mısır olurken, onu sırasıyla, 29279 ton ile kırmızı mercimek, 28530 ton ile silajlık mısır, 21154 ton ile arpa, 5212 ton ile pamuk, 338 ton ile nohut izlemektedir (Çizelge 1).Türkiye genelinde 2019 yılından 2023 yılına gelindiğinde nohut ve pamuğun ekim alanları ile üretim miktarının azaldığı, buğday ekim alanlarının azalırken üretim miktarlarının arttığı, arpa, kırmızı mercimek, mısır ve silajlık mısırın üretim alanlarının artarken üretim miktarının da arttığı, belirlenmiştir (Çizelge 1). 1154 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EVALUATION OF THE CONCEPT OF URBAN HEAT ISLAND IN TERMS OF URBAN SINK AREAS Abstract Urban heat island (UHI) effect has become a pressing issue due to rapid urbanization and climate change. In recent years, the phenomenon has intensified in urban sink areas, where heat is trapped by high-density buildings, concrete surfaces, and lack of vegetation. This spatial variation in UHI intensity has raised concerns about its impacts on human health, energy consumption, and the urban environment. To address this issue, it is crucial to evaluate the extent and variability of UHI in urban sink areas and identify strategies to mitigate its effects. This research aims to provide a comprehensive assessment of UHI in urban sink areas through remote sensing, field measurements, and modeling techniques. By understanding the factors contributing to the UHI effect in these areas, urban planners and policymakers can implement effective measures to create more sustainable and resilient cities. Keywords: Urban Heat Island, Urban Sink Areas, Climate Change 1162 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction Urban Heat Island (UHI) is a growing concern in many developed and developing countries. The heat island is defined as a built-up area that is hotter than its rural surroundings. The annual mean air temperature of a city with 1 million people or more can be 1.8° - 5.4°F (1° - 3°C) warmer than its surroundings. On a clear, calm summer evening, the temperature difference can be as much as 22°F (12°C). Heat islands can affect communities by increasing summertime peak energy demand, air conditioning costs, air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, heatrelated illness and mortality, and water quality. They also have an impact on the environment, disrupting ecosystems and wildlife. This rise in air temperature is mainly due to the replacement of vegetative and soil surfaces with those of concrete, asphalt, buildings, and other infrastructure, as well as the waste heat generated by energy usage in the process. UHI is a complex phenomenon that is not only dependent on environmental and meteorological conditions but also influenced by land usage and management. UHI has been shown to increase the production of secondary pollutants, ground-level ozone, and smog. In many cities, peak air pollution due to UHI has public health implications. High air temperatures in UHI areas, particularly during the summer, can increase the concentration of air pollutants, including ground-level ozone, a harmful substance to people and the environment. This increased concentration of pollutants has many implications for public health. The urban heat island and the adverse effects associated with it may be offset through urban planning policy aimed at reducing UHI effects and cooling the microclimate. The hydrological cycle and energy balance of UHI areas can be mitigated by implementing 'cool' roofs and roadways, and increasing planted vegetation and trees. In order to reduce air temperatures and the energy usage associated with space conditioning in UHI areas, it is up to local and national government and policymakers to institute these mitigation measures through regulation and incentive. Understanding Urban Heat Island Phenomenon Urbanization in rapidly growing urban areas like Chennai Metropolitan Area (CMA) and the National Capital Region of India has intensified the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect, significantly impacting local climate and sustainability. Research studies have highlighted the crucial role of urban vegetation in mitigating UHI through shading, carbon sequestration, and temperature regulation. The analysis of Land Surface Temperature (LST) and Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) dynamics using satellite imagery reveals the seasonal relationship between green cover and temperature fluctuations. It is evident that areas with high vegetation cover exhibit lower LST values, indicating their potential in moderating UHI in 1163 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal urban sink areas. Moreover, empirical evidence establishes a correlation between city size and UHI intensity, suggesting that strategic urban planning and vegetation interventions can effectively alleviate the heat island effect and enhance outdoor comfort zones in densely populated urban environments.The importance of urban sink areas in the context of the urban heat island cannot be understated, as they are responsible for a multitude of effects that typify the urban heat island. Since urban sink areas are locales which have a lower temperature than the surrounding urban area, they can take many forms and can be classified by their causative factors. The simplest form of an urban sink area is a green space, which through shading and evapotranspiration from vegetation can remain significantly cooler than the urban area surrounding it. Vegetation has the potential to reduce local temperatures by 2-9°C through shading and evapotranspiration. Other forms of urban sink areas include bodies of water, airconditioned buildings, and excavations. The latter forms, being anthropogenic in nature, are usually the result of land use change and are widespread in the urban environment. Any form of urban sink area is a valuable commodity in highly urbanized areas, as they provide a refuge from the heat of the surrounding urban area and thus can have a significant effect on the health and well-being of city residents. Factors Contributing to Urban Heat Island in Urban Sink Areas Urban heat island (UHI) refers to the phenomenon where cities experience higher temperatures compared to the surrounding rural areas. It is a result of the dense concentration of buildings, materials, and human activities that contribute to increased heat storage and limited cooling opportunities (Oke, 1982). However, recent research has suggested that the concept of UHI can be further evaluated by considering the role of urban sink areas. Urban sink areas are defined as locations within cities that have a higher capacity to absorb and store heat. These are typically areas with high levels of impervious surfaces, such as parking lots, highways, and industrial areas. The presence of these urban sink areas can significantly impact the formation and intensity of UHI, as they act as heat sinks during the day and release stored heat during the night (Santamouris, 2015). To evaluate the concept of UHI in terms of urban sink areas, several key considerations need to be examined: 1. Spatial Distribution: Analyzing the spatial distribution of urban sink areas within a city can provide insights into their contribution to UHI (Hebbert & Scott, 2003). Highresolution satellite imagery and thermal mapping techniques can assist in identifying 1164 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal and quantifying these areas. By understanding where and how urban sink areas are distributed, urban planners can devise strategies to mitigate their heat-absorbing effects. 2. Microclimate Monitoring: Monitoring microclimates within urban sink areas can help in understanding their thermal behavior (Wong et al., 2015). Installing weather stations and sensors at different locations can provide data on temperature variations and help assess the magnitude of UHI. This information is essential for planners to identify areas with the highest heat absorption and plan for appropriate interventions. 3. Green Infrastructure Interventions: Incorporating green infrastructure, such as green roofs, parks, and trees, within urban sink areas can help mitigate UHI effects (Santamouris, 2015). Vegetation provides shade, evaporative cooling, and can reduce the overall heat storage capacity in these areas. Evaluating the effectiveness of various green infrastructure interventions in reducing UHI within urban sink areas is crucial for urban planners. 4. Urban Design and Land Use Planning: Urban design and land use planning play a significant role in the formation and intensity of UHI (Hebbert & Scott, 2003). Evaluating the design guidelines and regulations that influence the development of urban sink areas can help identify areas for improvement. Measures like encouraging mixed land use, reducing impervious surfaces, and promoting sustainable materials can help in reducing UHI. 5. Social Equity Considerations: Evaluating UHI in terms of urban sink areas necessitates a focus on social equity (Chakraborty et al., 2014). Certain neighborhoods and communities may be disproportionately affected by the heat island effect due to the presence of more urban sink areas. Identifying such vulnerable communities and implementing targeted interventions can ensure a fair and just approach in addressing UHI. Factors contributing to the urban heat island effect in urban sink areas are multifaceted and dynamic, as evidenced by recent research on urbanization and its impacts on local climates. Remote-sensing studies, as highlighted in the cited literature, have underscored the importance of factors such as urban geometry, proximity to water bodies, and changes in land cover, including vegetation and impervious surfaces. Urban growth patterns, particularly the rate and form of expansion, have been linked to intensified urban heat sinks during the daytime, with variations in albedo, specific heat capacity of materials, and urban geometry playing crucial roles. Moreover, the interaction between urbanization and natural ecosystems, such as forests, 1165 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal has revealed significant alterations in surface energy balance and temperature gradients, emphasizing the need for comprehensive assessments of land use changes and their implications for urban heat islands. This insight aligns with the broader context of evaluating urban heat islands in urban sink areas, highlighting the complex interplay between urban development, environmental factors, and climate dynamics. Impacts of Urban Heat Island in Urban Sink Areas The impacts of Urban Heat Island (UHI) in urban sink areas are multifaceted and crucially affect the thermal dynamics of urban environments. Research findings from (Amit Kumar et al., 2023) demonstrate a significant increase in land surface temperature (LST) in urban and peri-urban regions due to rapid urbanization and land use changes, leading to the formation of urban heat islands. The study emphasizes the role of impervious surfaces, vegetation degradation, and environmental factors in exacerbating UHI effects. Furthermore, insights from (M. Kreitmair et al., 2020) highlight the underground heat island effect in densely populated city centers, underscoring the importance of understanding subsurface heat transfer for efficient heating and cooling of underground structures. This evidence underscores the urgent need for holistic approaches to mitigate UHI impacts in urban sink areas through nature-based solutions, sustainable land use practices, and enhanced geothermal assessments, ultimately contributing to the evaluation and management of UHI in urban settings. Mitigation Strategies for Urban Heat Island in Urban Sink Areas Mitigation strategies for urban heat islands in urban sink areas are pivotal for sustainable urban development. Leveraging insights from studies on landscape patterns and land surface temperature, such as those in Haikou and Sichuan Basin, China, can inform effective interventions. By understanding the spatial distribution of heat islands and the contributing factors like land cover types and topographic features, tailored strategies can be devised. The identification of "sinking heat islands" near mountainous regions underscores the need for localized solutions. Factors like biophysical parameters, climate conditions, and human activities play significant roles in influencing land surface temperature, highlighting the multifaceted nature of urban heat islands. As interactions between these factors vary seasonally, mitigation efforts must adapt accordingly. Incorporating a regional landscape systems approach, informed by geospatial analysis and the relationship between drivers of heat islands, can guide the formulation of targeted and sustainable mitigation strategies for urban sink areas. 1166 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Conclusion and Recommendations In conclusion, the evaluation of urban heat islands in urban sink areas reveals the complex interplay between various factors that contribute to the phenomenon. Through a detailed analysis of land use, population density, building materials, and green spaces, it is evident that these factors play a significant role in exacerbating heat accumulation in these areas. This research underscores the importance of implementing sustainable urban planning strategies to mitigate the effects of urban heat islands. By incorporating green infrastructure, prioritizing the use of reflective materials, promoting vegetation cover, and enhancing natural ventilation systems, cities can effectively reduce the urban heat island effect and enhance the overall quality of life for residents in urban sink areas. Moving forward, continued research and implementation of innovative solutions will be essential in addressing this pressing environmental and public health concern. Considering urban sink areas when evaluating UHI provides a more comprehensive understanding of the factors contributing to the heat island effect in cities. Analyzing the spatial distribution, monitoring microclimates, implementing green infrastructure interventions, reviewing urban design and land use planning regulations, and considering social equity aspects can guide the development of effective strategies to mitigate UHI. By implementing these strategies, cities can create more sustainable, livable urban environments that are resilient to the adverse effects of UHI. By considering the concept of urban sink areas when evaluating UHI, urban planners can gain a more comprehensive understanding of the factors contributing to heat island effects within cities. This knowledge can guide the development of effective strategies and interventions to mitigate UHI and create more sustainable, livable urban environments. In conclusion, evaluating the concept of UHI in terms of urban sink areas provides a deeper understanding of the factors contributing to heat island effects in cities. By analyzing the spatial distribution, monitoring microclimates, implementing green infrastructure interventions, reviewing urban design and land use planning regulations, and considering social equity, urban planners can develop effective strategies to mitigate UHI and create more sustainable, livable urban environments. By addressing UHI and its relation to urban sink areas, cities can work towards reducing the adverse effects of heat islands and improve the well-being of their residents. 1167 VI.

It was concluded that the academicians who counseled the most in the studies had the title of associate professor with 34.89%. 48.14% of the study group of theses were teachers, and the quantitative method was mostly used in the studies. According to the results of the post graduate theses, the opinions, attitudes, and self-efficacy perceptions of most prospective teachers and undergraduate students of the faculty of education regarding multicultural education are high and the perceptions of teachers about multiculturalism and multicultural education are positive. It has been concluded that they are not very aware of multicultural education practices and that they have responsibility consciousness when it comes to multicultural education.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Çok kültürlülük; ırk, dil, din, sosyal sınıf, eğitim, yaş, etnik grup ve kültürel farklılıkların birlik içerisinde olmasına dayanan bir kavram ve toplumlara ait farklılık ve çeşitlilikleri önyargı olmadan kabul etmeyi ve huzur içinde yaşamayı hedefleyen bir kavramdır (American Psychological Association (APA), 2002). Çok kültürlülük, ilk olarak farklı etnik topluluğa ait bireylerin kendi etnik kimliklerini korumak amacıyla ortaya çıkardıkları bir kavramdır (Vatandaş, 2002). İnsanlar, dünyada yalnızca kendi kültürlerine odaklanır ve sadece kendi bakış açılarıyla bakarlarsa diğer insanların tecrübelerinden yoksun kalırlar. Bu bağlamda kültürel anlamda sınırlanırlar. Birey farklı kültüre ait bireylerle iletişim halinde olduğu sürece farklı bakış açılarına sahip olabilir (Banks, 2013). Çok kültürlülük kavramının toplum tarafından kabulünün en önemli araçlarından biri eğitimdir. Okullar toplumun küçük bir parçası olduğu için çok kültürlü özellik göstermektedir. Bundan dolayı çok kültürlü eğitim kavramı gelişmiştir. Kavram olarak çok kültürlü eğitim ele alındığında özgürlük, hak, eşitlik, adalet gibi terimler üzerine inşa edilmiştir (Grant, 1994; National Association of Multicultural Education (NAME), 2018). Çok kültürlü eğitim, öğrencilere eşit haklar sunularak bir eğitim ortamının sağlanmasını savunur (Banks, 2015). Çok kültürlü eğitim öğrencilere farklı bakış açılarını edindirerek kendi kültürlerini ve diğer kültürleri tanımalarına olanak sağlar. Farklı kültürden bireylerin kültürleriyle karşılaşan çocuklar kendi kültürleriyle karşılaştırma olanağı bulur ve böylece kendi kültürlerini daha iyi tanıma fırsatı bulurlar (Banks, 2015). Çok kültürlü eğitim, öğrenciler arasında bulunan çeşitliliklere sahip çocukların kendilerini bulundukları eğitim ortamına ait hissetmeleri ve eşit bir biçimde verilen eğitimden yaralanmasını sağlar (Banks, 2013). Çok kültürlü eğitim kapsamında öğrencilerin nesnel bir biçimde kararlar alabilmek, çeşitliliği bulunan bireylere saygı duymalarını sağlamak (Parekh, 2002), farklı kültürlerin varlığının kabul edilip kültürlerin tanınmasına yardımcı olmak ve farklı kültürel alt yapıya sahip bireylerin biraraya gelerek verimli çalışmayı amaçlayan bir süreç olarak tanımlanmaktadır (UNESCO, 2006). Çok kültürlü eğitim, farklı etnik gruptan, cinsiyetten, dinden, dilden, ırktan vs. gelen bireylerin birarada eğitim almasını sağlamak ve öğrencilerin farklı etnik çeşitliliğe sahip bireyleri saygıyla karşılayabilmeleri için öğrenme ortamlarının çeşitlendirilmesi temeline dayanmaktadır (Cırık, 2008). Çok kültürlü eğitim sınıflarında öğretmenlerin, farklı özelliklere sahip öğrencilere karşı ayrımcılığı, önyargıları ortadan kaldırmalı ve eğitimde eşitliği sağlayabilecek, farklılıkları kabul edebilecek bir sınıf ortamı sağlamalıdır (Polat, 2009). Farklı kültürlere saygı Birleşmiş Milletler tarafından önem arz edilen konular arasında yer alırken (Başbay ve Bektaş, 2009) Wilson (2008)’a göre çok kültürlü eğitimi sınıf iklimine dahil etmek 1172 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal amaçlanmalıdır.Çok kültürlü eğitim temel hedeflerinden bir anlamak ve anlamlandırmaktır. Bu süreçlerden sonra ise saygı duymak gelmektedir. Bu yolla çok kültürlü eğitimin bir diğer amacı olan iletişim kurmak gerçekleşmektedir. İletişim kuran çocuklar yerel ve evrensel açıdan bilgi, beceri ve olumlu yaklaşımlar edinebilir. Çocukları kültürel açıdan önyargılarını önlemek, akademik gelişimlerini sağlamak, kültürel duyarlılıklarını geliştirmek ise çok kültürlü eğitimin diğer amaçlarından biridir (Bozkurt & Alcı, 2013). Dunn (1997) ve Gay (1994) ise çok kültürlü eğitimin amaçlarını şu şekilde ortaya koymuştur; tutum ve değerleri görünür hale getirme, temel olan yeteneklerin edindirilmesi, çok kültürlü okur-yazarlığın geliştirilmesi, eğitim noktasında eşitliği sağlanmasıdır.Çok kültürlü eğitimin amaçları beraberinde çok kültürlü eğitimin boyutlarını da getirmektedir. Çok kültürlü eğitimi uygulama, çok kültürlü eğitimi iyi hale getirme açısından uygulayıcılar çok kültürlü eğitimin boyutlarını kendilerini yol gösterici olarak kabul etmektedir (Banks, 2019). Parks (1999)’a göre çok kültürlü eğitimin boyutları şu şekildedir; ahlak eğitimi, barış eğitimi, akran arası çatışmaları çözme, karakter eğitimi, hizmet öğretimi, eleştirel düşünme, küresel eğitim ve duygusal zekâ eğitimidir. Ahlak eğitimi; herkese saygılı olmayı savunur. Barış eğitimi; insanlar arasında oluşan ayrıştırmacılığın/ayrımcılığın önlenmesini savunur. Akran arası çatışmaları çözme; açık veya örtük olarak yapılan ırkçılığı önler. Karakter eğitimi; iyi insan olmayı öğütler. Hizmet öğretimi; farklılıklara sahip bireylerin uyumunu sağlar. Eleştirel düşünme; farklı bakış açıların kabul edilmesini savunur. Küresel eğitim; ırkçılığı sorun olarak görür. Duygusal zekâ eğitimi; farklı kültüre ait bireyin korku veya üzüntüsünün kontrolünü sağlar. Eğitim bu boyutlarını edindirme ve farklı bakış açılarını edindirme noktasında okullar devreye girmektedir (Toprak, 2008). Erdem (2017) ele aldığı çalışmasında eğitim ve öğretim sürecinde en önemli sorun olarak dilin görüldüğünü, öğretmenlerin farklı dilleri konuşan/milletten olan çocuklar için içerik düzenlemesi yapmadığı ve öğrencileri değerlendirirken nesnel bir biçimde değerlendirme sürecini tamamlamadıkları sonucuna ulaşmıştır. Yıldırım & Muyo Yıldırım’ın Kosova’da 2019 yılında yapmış oldukları çalışmada öğretmenlerin çok kültürlü eğitim uygulamalarının farklı değişkenlere göre durumları incelenmiştir. Araştırmanın sonucuna göre ise seviye, anadil ve branşın öğretmenlerin uygulamaları üzerinde etkili olduklarını ortaya koymuştur.Ng, Chai, Chan & Chung’un 2021 yılında yapmış oldukları çalışmaya göre azınlık okul öncesi kurumlarında görev yapan öğretmenlerin kültürel olarak duyarlı bir öğretim sağlayıp sağlayamadıklarını ortaya koymayı amaçlamıştır. Azınlık okullarında görev yapan öğretmenlerin öğretim yöntemlerini uyarlama noktasında yeterli oldukları ancak çok kültürlü eğitim programları tasarlama ve materyalleri 1173 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal eğitim sürecine dahil etme noktasında yetersiz kaldıkları sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.Çok kültürlülük bağlamında alanyazın incelendiğinde çok kültürlülüğün bireyler üzerindeki ve eğitim üzerindeki önemi ele alınmıştır. Bu açıdan bakıldığından çok kültürlülüğün bireylerin topluma uyum sürecinde ne denli önemli olduğu sonucuna varılabilir. Bunu bireylere anlatmanın en etkili yollarından biri olan eğitim devreye girmektedir. Eğitim yoluyla bireyler toplumda farklılıklara ve çeşitliliklere sahip bireylere karşı nasıl davranacaklarını, ön yargısız nasıl kabul edebileceklerini vs. öğrenirler ve farklılıklara sahip bireylerin birarada bulunduğu okullar da bunları öğretmek için en uygun ortam olarak görülebilir. Bu doğrultuda yapılan çalışmalar incelendiğinde; yurtdışı çalışmalarında genellikle öğretmen ve öğretmen adaylarıyla ilgili yapılan çalışmalar yoğunluk göstermekte (Kaya & Söyleme, 2014; Taştekin, Bozkurt-Yükçü, İzoğlu, Güngör, Işık-Uslu & Demircioğlu, 2016; Aslan, 2017; Aslan & Kozikoğlu, 2017; Sezer & Kahraman, 2017; Kervan, 2017; Güngör, Buyruk & Özdemir; 2018; Kimzan & Arıkan, 2018; Ateş, 2021; Çoban, Güney Karaman & Doğan, 2010; Demircioğlu & Özdemir, 2014; Engin & Genç, 2015; Polat, 2009; Kimzan & Arıkan, 2018; Tortop, 2014; Yıldırım, 2022). Ders kitaplarıyla/doküman incelemesi ile ilgili yapılan çalışmalara (Bektaş, 2023a; Bektaş, 2023b, Doğan, 2019) ve öğrencilerle ilgili yapılan çalışmalara da az da olsa yer verilmiştir (Şimşek, 2022). Öte yandan çok kültürlülük bağlamında yurt dışında yapılan çalışmalar da oldukça fazlalık göstermektedir. Bu çalışmalar uygulamaya yönelik, öğretmenlere yönelik, öğrencilere yönelik, doküman incelemesine yönelik çalışmalardan oluşmaktadır (Samuels, 1994; JaeKyung, 2000; Walters, 2007; Yenlin Miranda, 2008; Park, 2010; Phoon, Abdullah & Abdullah, 2013; Bartelo, 2014; Park, 2014; Huh, Choi & Jun, 2015; Vittrup, 2016; Guo, 2017; Abdullah & Abdullah, 2018; Aragona-Young & Sawyer, 2018; Pourdavood & Yan, 2020; Zain, Basir & Mustafa, 2020; Ng, Chai, Chan & Chung, 2021). Ancak yapılan literatür taraması neticesinde çok kültürlü eğitim ile ilgili yapılan lisansüstü tezlerin içerik analizini ortaya koyan herhangi bir çalışmaya yer verilmediği görülmüştür. Bu açıdan çok kültürlü eğitimle ilgili çalışmaların sınırlı sayıda olması, alana katkı sağlaması, ailelere, eğitimcilere, öğrencilere vs. katkı sağlaması konusunda 144 lisansüstü tezin toplu bir biçimde tek bir çalışmanın çatısı altında sunulması noktasında önem taşımaktadır. Ayrıca çok kültürlü eğitim ile ilgili yapılan lisansüstü tezlerin içerik analizi noktasında ilk çalışma olması da çalışmanın önemini ortaya koymaktadır. AMAÇ Bu çalışma, eğitim ve öğretim konusunda çok kültürlü/çokkültürlülüğü ele alan Yüksek Öğretim Kurumu Ulusal Tez Merkezinde indekslenen yüksek lisans ve doktora tezlerinin farklı değişkenler açısından sistemli bir şekilde incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. 1174 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal YÖNTEM Bu araştırmada çok kültürlü/çokkültürlü eğitim ile ilgili yapılan lisansüstü tezler incelenirken nitel araştırma yöntemleri kullanılmıştır. Nitel çalışmalar, araştırmacıya direkt olarak veri kaynağına erişebilme imkânı sunar. Durum ve olayların ayrıntılı bir şekilde anlaşılmasını sağlayacak betimlemeler yaparak elde edilen bilgiler ışığında genellemeler yapılmasını sağlar (Büyüköztürk, 2023). Bu araştırma, nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden doküman incelemesi yöntemiyle desenlenmiştir. Nitel araştırma modeli olarak verilerin elde edilerek yorumlanması aşamasında doküman incelemesi yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Doküman incelemesi yönteminde basılı ve web tabanlı bilgilerin sistematik bir biçimde ele alınmasıdır (Bowen, 2009). Bu araştırmada incelemesi yapılan dokümanlar çok kültürlü/çokkültürlü eğitim kapsamında yapılan yüksek lisans ve doktora tezleridir. Evren ve Örneklem Çalışmada lisansüstü tezlerin elde edilmesinde “YÖK Ulusal Tez Merkezi” kullanılmıştır. Araştırma 1998-2023 tarihleri arasında çok kültürlü/çokkültürlü eğitim konusunda eğitim bilimleri alanında yer alan 144 tane doktora ve yüksek lisans tezlerinden oluşmaktadır. Aralık 2023 tarihinde “çok kültürlü eğitim” ve “çokkültürlü eğitim” kavramına yönelik yapılan aramada “çok kültürlü eğitim” kelimesi taratılınca 113, “çokkültürlü eğitim” kelime taratılınca 202 tane doktora ve yüksek lisans tezine ulaşılmıştır. Konu alanı eğitim bilimleri dışında olan ve erişime kapalı olan tezler (Hamurabi Sözen, 2005; Kahyaoğlu, 1998; Öztürk, 1998; Altaş, 2001) araştırma kapsamı dışında bırakılmıştır. Geriye kalan 144 çalışma, eğitim bilimleri alanında ve erişime açık “çok kültürlü eğitim” ve “çokkültürlü eğitim” konularını kapsayan yüksek lisans ve doktora tezlerinden oluşmaktadır. Verilerin Toplanması ve Analizi Çalışmanın örneklemi dahiline 144 doktora ve yüksek lisans tezi dahil edilmiştir. Bu çalışmaların veri toplama sürecinde araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen “İçerik Analiz Formu” kullanılmıştır. İçerik analiz formu toplamda dokuz sorudan oluşmaktadır. Bu soruların her biri içerik analiz yönergesi için birer tema olarak ele alınmıştır. Çalışmaların geçerlik ve güvenirlikleri için üç hafta sonra tekrar “YÖK Ulusal Tez Merkezi”nden “çok kültürlü eğitim” ve “çokkültürlü eğitim” konuları taratılmış ve uzmanların görüşleri doğrultusunda içerik analiz formu için Miles & Huberman (1994)’nın uyuşum yüzdeliği (görüş birliği/(görüş ayrılığı+görüş birliği)x100)) formülü kullanılmıştır. Üç hafta sonra “YÖK Ulusal Tez Merkezi”nden “çok kültürlü eğitim” ve “çokkültürlü eğitim” konuları taratıldığında aynı sonuçlara ulaşılmıştır. Ayrıca içerik analiz formu için uyuşum yüzdeliğine bakıldığında %90 1175 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal olarak hesaplanmıştır. Miles & Huberman (1994) uyuşum yüzdeliğinin %70’i geçmesi durumunda güvenilir olduğunu savunmuştur. İçerik analiz formu dahilinde hazırlanan sorular şunlardır: 1. Çok kültürlü/çokkültürlü eğitimi konu alan tezlerin yıllara göre dağılımı nasıldır? 2. Çok kültürlü/çokkültürlü eğitimi konu alan tezlerin yazarlarının üniversitelere göre dağılımı nasıldır? 3. Çok kültürlü/çokkültürlü eğitimi konu alan tezlerin enstitülerine göre dağılımı nasıldır? 4. Çok kültürlü/çokkültürlü eğitimi konu alan tezlerin anabilim dallarına göre dağılımı nasıldır? 5. Çok kültürlü/çokkültürlü eğitimi konu alan tezlerin tez türüne göre dağılımı nasıldır? 6. Çok kültürlü/çokkültürlü eğitimi konu alan tezlerin danışmanlarının unvanlarına göre dağılımı nasıldır? 7. Çok kültürlü/çokkültürlü eğitimi konu alan tezlerin çalışma grubuna göre dağılımı nasıldır? 8. Çok kültürlü/çokkültürlü eğitimi konu alan tezlerin araştırma yöntemine göre dağılımı nasıldır? 9. Çok kültürlü/çokkültürlü eğitimi konu alan tezlerin sonuçları nasıldır? Verilerin Kodlanması ve Çözümlenmesi Veriler, çok kültürlü/çokkültürlü eğitim ile ilgili yapılan 144 yüksek lisans ve doktora çalışmasının analiz formunda yer alan 10 soru çerçevesinde kodlanmıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda sorulan sorular “tema” ve “alt temalar” şeklinde belirlenmiş ve frekans ve yüzdelikleri hesaplanmıştır (Örneğin; 4. sorudaki “tema” için toplamda 6 “alt tema” belirlenmiştir). Kodlanan veriler betimsel istatistikler ile frekans (f) ve yüzde (%) şeklinde ifade edilmiştir. ARAŞTIRMA VE BULGULAR Yüksek Lisans ve Doktora Tezlerinin Yıllara Göre Dağılımı Tablo 1’de doküman analizi yapılan 148 lisansüstü tezin yıllara göre dağılımları verilmiştir. 1176 VI.

Buna göre lisansüstü tezlerin sonuçlarına göre en çok ulaşılan sonuçlar şu şekildedir; öğretmenlerin çok kültürlülük ve çok kültürlü eğitim konusunda algıları olumlu, çok kültürlü eğitim uygulamalarından pek fazla haberdar olmadıkları ve çok kültürlü eğitim konu olunca sorumluluk bilinçlerinin olduğu sonucu elde edilmiştir. Diğer sonuçlara bakıldığında öğretmen adaylarının/eğitim fakültesi lisans öğrencilerinin çok kültürlü eğitim ile ilgili görüşleri, tutumları ve öz yeterlik algıları yüksek 1188 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal düzeyde bulunmuştur. Okul öncesi öğretmenlerinin yeterlilik algılarına bakıldığında farklı değişkenler doğrultusunda (yaş, eğitim durumu, etnik köken, görev yaptığı okulun bulunduğu yerleşim yeri vs.) farklılıklar gösterdiği sonucuna varılmıştır. Öğretmenlerin farklı toplum anlayışını kabul etmekte ve farklılıklara karşı faklı tutumları bulunmaktadır. Öğretmenler, öğretmenlik mesleğini yerine getiren bireylerin önyargılı olduklarını ancak kendilerinin önyargılı olmadıklarını ifade etmektedirler. Sosyal bilgiler öğretmenlerinin çok kültürlülüğe ait olumlu görüşlere sahip olduğu, eğitim sisteminde çok kültürlülüğe ait eksiklerin olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Çok kültürlü yeterliliğin en önemli iki unsurunun motivasyon ve üst biliş olduğu ve çok kültürlü eğitim tutumlarının kişilik özellikleriyle ilişkili olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Öğretmenlerin çok kültürlülüğe ilişkin tutumları görev yaptıkları okulun türüne, sahip oldukları branşlara, cinsiyetlerine, kariyer basamaklarına göre farklılık göstermekte ayrıca çok kültürlü sınıf ortamlarında sınıf yönetim becerileri cinsiyete göre farklılık gösterirken mezuniyet durumu, kıdem yılı, ana dili, yaş gibi durumlara göre farklılık göstermemektedir ayrıca öğretmenlerin çok kültürlü eğitim ve çok kültürlülük kavramına ilişkin bilgi, tutum ve becerilerinin yüksek derecededir. Sosyal bilgiler ders kitapları incelendiğinde beş, altı ve yedinci sınıfların bazı ünitelerinde çok kültürlülük bağlamında kazanımlara yer verildiği ancak yeteri düzeyde çok kültürlüğe yer verilmediği ve sosyal bilgiler ders kitaplarında çok kültürlülüğün yansımalarına değinildiği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Öğretmenlerin, farklı kültüre ait veliler ve çocuklarla iletişim problemi yaşaması, verdikleri eğitimin yeterince karşılıklarını alamamaları, farklı kültüre sahip çocukların çatışmalar yaşadıkları ile ilgili problemler öğretmenlerin çok kültürlü eğitime olan görüşlerini olumsuz etkilemekte ve öğretmenlerin çok kültürlü eğitim algıları ve sınıf yönetim becerileri düşük düzeyde ve negatif yönlü bir ilişki içerisinde olduğu görülmektedir. Psikolojik danışmanların Suriyeli bireyler ile kurulan ilişkinin/temasın miktar ve düzey olarak okul dışında düşük seviyede olduğu ve psikolojik danışanların çok kültürlülük algılarının yüksek olmasına rağmen Suriyeli bireyler hakkında pek bilgiye sahip olmadığı ya da eksik ve yanlış bilgiye sahip oldukları sonucuna varılmıştır. Göçmen çocuklarla çalışan öğretmenlerin çok kültürlülüğe ait tutumları, iş doyumları ve yaşam doyumlarının yüksek olduğu, sınıf öğretmenlerinin kültürel sermaye yeterlik düzeylerinin yüksek olduğu ve kültürel sermaye yeterlik düzeylerinin anne eğitim düzeyi, yaş ve meslekte geçirilen yıla göre anlamlı farklılık gösterdiği ve öz duyarlılıkla çok kültürlülük yeterlik algıları arasında pozitif bir ilişki bulunduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Çok kültülrülük kavramının; zenginlik, çeşitlilik, süreklilik, hoşgörü, tahammül gibi kavramları çağrıştırdığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Çok kültürlü kişilik özelliklerinin çok kültürlü eğitime karşı 1189 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal olan tutumlarda herhangi bir belirleyicilik göstermediği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Farklılıklara saygı ve çok kültürlülük arasında olumlu ilişkiler bulunmaktadır. Açık görüşlülük, empati, esnekliğin arttığı durumlarda farklılıklara saygının da arttığı görülmüştür. Öğretmen yetiştirme programlarında en fazla katıda bulunan dersin çok kültürlü eğitim uygulaması ile birleştirilmiş olan sınıf yönetimi dersi olduğu sonucu elde edilmiştir. Okul öncesi öğretmenlerinin çok kültürlü kişilik özellikleri ve çok kültürlü eğitime olan tutumları okul öncesi öğretmen adaylarına göre daha yüksek düzeydedir. Okul yöneticilerinin ve öğretmenlerin çok kültürlü eğitime yönelik tutumlarının olumlu olduğu sonucu elde edilmiştir. Öğretmen ve öğrenci görüşlerinin incelendiği çalışmada vatandaşlık eğitiminin yetersiz kaldığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Türk ve yabancı öğrencilerin çok kültürlü eğitim ortamına bakışının olumlu olduğu ve kültürel zekanın çok kültürlü eğitim üzerinde pek bir etkiye sahip olmadığı, bir diğer çalışma da ise kültürel zekâ ve çok kültürlü eğitim tutumu ve kültürler arası tutarlılık arasında pozitif bir ilişki olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Öğretmenlere göre kültürel konuların yüz yüze eğitimle iletilmesinin daha etkili olduğu ancak farklılıklara saygı ve çok kültürlülük uygulamalarının bazı noktalarda ilişkilendiremedikleri sonucuna varılmıştır. Beden eğitimi öğretmenlerinin daha büyük yaş grubundaki bireylerle çalışanlar çok kültürlü farkındalık düzeyleri diğerlerine göre daha yüksek olduğu ve ayrıca öğretmenlerin öğrenim durumları yükseldikçe çok kültürlülük algı bilgi düzeylerinin arttığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Sosyal bilgiler öğretmenleri İngilizce öğretmenlerine göre daha yüksek çok kültürlü tutum sergilemektedir. Okulun bulunduğu yer, fiziki şartları, sosyo-ekonomik durum ve verilen eğitimin kalitesinin çok kültürlü eğitimi etkilediği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. SONUÇ Bu çalışmada çok kültürlü eğitim ile ilgili yapılan lisansüstü tezler incelenmiştir. Yapılan araştırma kapsamında ele alınan sonuçlar tartışılmış ve sunulmuştur. Çok kültürlü eğitim alanında yapılmış olan çalışmalarda yıllara göre dağılım incelendiğinde; 1998 yılında 2 tez, 2001 yılında 1 tez, 2005 yılında 1 tez, 2006 yılında 1 tez, 2008 yılında 2 tez, 2009 yılında 2 tez, 2010 yılında 1 tez, 2011 yılında 1 tez, 2012 yılında 2 tez, 2013 yılında 9 tez, 2014 yılında 11 tez, 2015 yılında 5 tez, 2016 yılında 8 tez, 2017 yılında 8 tez, 2018 yılında 10 tez, 2019 yılında 28 tez, 2020 yılında 10 tez, 2021 yılında 16 tez, 2022 yılında 20 tez ve 2023 yılında 10 tez yayınlanmıştır. Hazırlanmış olan tezlerin yıllara göre dağılımı incelendiğinde yıllar arasında dalgalanmaların olduğu görülmektedir. Ancak son yıllarda yazılmış olan tezlerin sayısında bir artış olduğu ve çok kültürlü eğitim konusunda son yıllarda verilen önemin arttığı yorumu yapılabilir. 1190 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Çok kültürlü eğitim alanında yapılmış olan çalışmaların yazarlarının üniversitelerine göre dağılımı incelendiğinde; Marmara Üniversitesi’nde 14 tez, Hacette Üniversitesi’nde 8 tez, Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi’nde 7 tez, Abant İzzet Baysal Üniversitesi’nde 6 tez, Çukurova Üniversitesi’nde 5 tez, Trakya Üniversitesi’nde 4 tez, Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi’nde 4 tez, Van Yüzüncü Yıl Üniversitesi’nde 4 tez, Dumlupınar Üniversitesi’nde 4 tez, Çanakkale On Sekiz Mart Üniversitesi’nde 4 tez, Akdeniz Üniversitesi’nde 4 tez, Ege Üniversitesi’nde 4 tez, İstanbul Aydın Üniversitesi’nde 3 tez, Ankara Üniversitesi’nde 3 tez, Uludağ Üniversitesi’nde 3 tez, Sakarya Üniversitesi’nde 3 tez, Anadolu Üniversitesi’nde 3 tez, Gaziantep Üniversitesi’nde 3 tez, Çağ Üniversitesi’nde 2 tez, Necmettin Erbakan Üniversitesi’nde 2 tez, İnönü Üniversitesi’nde 2 tez, Bahçeşehir Üniversitesi’nde 2 tez, Gazi Osman Paşa Üniversitesi’nde 2 tez, Balıkesir Üniversitesi’nde 2 tez, İstanbul Üniversitesi-Cerrahpaşa Üniversitesi’nde 2 tez, On Dokuz Mayıs Üniversitesi’nde 2 tez, Gazi Üniversitesi’nde 2 tez, Boğaziçi Üniversitesi’nde 2 tez, Fırat Üniversitesi’nde 2 tez, Zonguldak Bülent Ecevit Üniversitesi’nde 2 tez, Kastamonu Üniversitesi’nde 2 tez, Hacı Bektaş Veli Üniversitesi’nde 2 tez, Erciyes Üniversitesi’nde 2 tez, Pamukkale Üniversitesi’nde 2 tez ve diğer üniversitelerde toplamda 23 lisansüstü tez yazılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgulara göre çok kültürlü/çokkültürlü eğitim konusunda en fazla lisansüstü tez Marmara (%9.72) ve Hacettepe (%5.5) üniversitelerinde yazılmıştır. Öte yandan birçok üniversitenin farklı sayılarda çok kültürlü eğitim alanında tez hazırlamış olduğunu ve birçok üniversitenin çok kültürlü eğitim konusuna önem verdiği yorumu yapılabilir. Çok kültürlü eğitim alanında yazılmış olan tezlerin enstitülerine göre dağılımına bakıldığında; 75 tezin Eğitim Bilimleri Enstitüsü’nde, 52 tezin Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü’nde, 15 tezin Lisansüstü Enstitüsü’nde, 1 tezin Sağlık Bilimleri Enstitüsü’nde ve 1 tezin de Yurtdışı Enstitüsü’nde yazıldığı sonucu elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgulara göre lisansüstü tezler en fazla Eğitim Bilimleri Enstitüleri (%52.08) kapsamında yazılmıştır. Bunun sebebi olarak konu alanının eğitim olarak sınırlandırılmış olması yorumu yapılabilir. Çok kültürlü eğitim alanında yazılmış olan tezlerin anabilim dallarına göre dağılımına bakıldığında; Eğitim Bilimleri Anabilim Dalı 49 tez, Türkçe ve Sosyal Bilimler Anabilim Dalı 19 tez, İlköğretim Anabilim Dalı 17 tez, Eğitim Programları ve Öğretimi Anabilim Dalı 8 tez, Temel Eğitim Anabilim Dalı 7 tez ve diğer anabilim dallarında 44 lisansüstü tez yayınlanmıştır. Bu bulgulara göre en fazla lisansüstü tez yayınlayan anabilim dalının Eğitim Bilimleri Anabilim Dalı (%34.02) olduğuna ve farklı anabilim dallarına eğitimlerini tamamlamış lisansüstü öğrencilerinin çok kültürlü eğitim konularına önem verdiği yorumu yapılabilir. Çok kültürlü eğitim alanında yazılmış olan 1191 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal tezlerin tez türlerine göre dağılımına bakıldığında; 114 yüksek lisans tezi ve 30 doktora tezi yayınlanmıştır. Verilere göre yüksek lisans tezlerinin oranı (%79.16) doktora tezlerinin oranından (%20.83) oldukça fazla olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. bu sonuca göre yüksek lisans programlarının doktora programlarından sayıca fazla olması, doktora programlarının yeterli olmayışı, yüksek lisans öğrencilerinin doktora öğrencilerine oranla çok kültürlü eğitime ilgisinin daha yüksek olabileceği yorumları yapılabilir.Çok kültürlü eğitim alanında yazılmış olan tezlerin danışmanlarının unvanlarına göre dağılımına bakıldığında; 47 profesör, 52 doçent, 49 doktor öğretim üyesi/yardımcı doçent ve 1 doktor unvanına sahip danışmanın yer aldığı toplamda 144 tane lisansüstü tez yayınlanmıştır. Tezlerin frekans toplamının 149 olmasının sebebi ise bazı çalışmaların iki danışmana (Toprak, 2008; Sarıkaya Serdaroğlu, 2023; Arslan, 2014; Şahin Bektaş, 2022; Kılıçoğlu, 2014) sahip olmasından kaynaklanmaktadır. Ayrıca farklı unvanlara sahip akademisyenlerin veya bu akademisyenlerinin öğrencilerinin çok kültürlü eğitim konusuna önem verdikleri/ilgi duydukları yorumu yapılabilir. Çok kültürlü eğitim alanında yazılmış olan tezlerin çalışma gruplarına göre dağılımına bakıldığında; 78 çalışmada öğretmene, 26 çalışmada öğretmen adayına, 20 çalışmada öğrenciye, 18 çalışmada ders kitabı/dokümantasyona, 8 çalışmada öğretim görevlisi/elemanına, 7 çalışmada okul yöneticisi/personeline ve 5 diğer (program, ebeveyn, farklı etnik grup katılımcıları) grubuna yer verilmiştir. Araştırmalarda çalışma grubu olarak öğretmenlerin oran (%48.14) olarak en fazla tercih edildiği sonucu elde edilmiştir. Çalışmalarda en fazla öğretmenlere yer verilmesinin sebebinin kolay ulaşılabilir olması, çok kültürlülük konusuna olumlu algılara sahip olmaları (Karadeniz, 2019; Teymur, 2020; Sağlam, 2016; Kaya, 2013; Polat, 2013) yorumları yapılabilir.Çok kültürlü eğitim alanında yazılmış olan tezlerin araştırma yöntemlerine göre dağılımına bakıldığında; 46 çalışma nitel, 79 çalışma nicel ve 19 çalışma karma yöntemle hazırlanmıştır. Karma ve nitel çalışmaların sayılarının artması durumda çok kültürlü eğitim ile ilgili farklı verilere ve sonuçlara ulaşılabilir.Çok kültürlü eğitim alanında yazılmış olan tezlerin sonuçları incelendiğinde en çok ulaşılan sonuçlar şu şekildedir; öğretmenlerin çok kültürlülük ve çok kültürlü eğitim konusunda algıları olumlu, çok kültürlü eğitim uygulamalarından pek fazla haberdar olmadıkları ve çok kültürlü eğitim konu olunca sorumluluk bilinçlerinin olduğu, öğretmen adaylarının/eğitim fakültesi lisans öğrencilerinin çok kültürlü eğitim ile ilgili görüşleri, tutumları ve öz yeterlik algıları yüksek düzeyde olduğu ve okul öncesi öğretmenlerinin yeterlilik algılarına bakıldığında farklı değişkenler doğrultusunda (yaş, eğitim durumu, etnik köken, görev yaptığı okulun bulunduğu yerleşim yeri vs.) farklılıklar gösterdiği sonucuna varılmıştır. 1192 VI.

Prof. Alamettin BAYAV (ORCID: 0000-0002-8093-2988) Isparta University of Applied Sciences, Faculty of Agriculture, Department of Agricultural Economics, Isparta-Türkiye Email: alamettinbayav@hotmail.com Özet Buğday Türkiye’de birçok çiftçinin gelir kaynağı olup yoğun olarak üretilmektedir. Ayrıca temel gıda maddesi olması buğdayın önemini daha da artırmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, buğdayın dünya ve Türkiye’de ekim alanı, üretimi ve dış ticaretinin gelişiminin ortaya konulması amaçlanmıştır. Ayrıca Türkiye’de farklı illerde buğday üretiminin ekonomik analizinin yapıldığı çalışmalardan faydalanarak buğday üreten işletmelerin bazı teknik ve ekonomik özellikleri incelenmiştir. Çalışmanın ana materyalini ilgili istatistikler (Türkiye İstatistik Kurumu, Birleşmiş Milletler Gıda ve Tarım Örgütü) ve literatürde konuyla ilgili yapılmış olan ulusal ve uluslararası bilimsel çalışmalar oluşturmuştur. Dünya ve Türkiye’de buğday üretimindeki ve dış ticaretindeki gelişmeler basit ve zincirleme indeks hesabı yapılarak yıllar itibariyle değişimleri incelenmiştir. İncelenen çalışmalarda buğday üretiminde sabit masrafların oranı ortalama %25,80 ve değişen masrafların oranı ortalama %74,11 olarak tespit edilmiştir. Buğday üretiminde nispi kâr ise 1,28 olarak belirlenmiştir. Yani işletmeler 1 birimlik masraf karşılığında 1,28 birimlik gelir elde etmekte olup bunun 0,28 birimi kârdır. İşletmelerin ortalama işletme arazisi genişlikleri 244,7 dekar, buğday ekim alanlarının ortalama genişliği 124,2 dekar, buğday verimi ise 351,76 kg/da olarak tespit edilmiştir. 2022 yılı itibariyle Türkiye buğday üretiminde dünyada 12. sırada yer almaktadır. Buğday ihracatında dünyada 30. sırada, buğday ithalatında ise 3. sırada yer almaktadır. Türkiye hem miktar bakımından hem değer bakımından buğday dış ticaretinde açık vermektedir. Buğday dış ticaret açığı 8 milyon 512 bin ton ve 3 milyar 187 milyon dolardır. Türkiye önemli bir buğday ithalatçısı ülke olmakla birlikte ithal edilen buğdayı tarıma dayalı sanayi kollarında (un sanayi, makarna sanayi vb.) işleyerek katma değer kazandırmakta ve ihraç etmektedir. Her ne kadar ithal edilen buğday tarıma dayalı sanayinde kullanılsa da Türkiye’de yıllar itibariyle buğday ekim alanlarının azalması ve dış ticaret açığının artması üzerinde durulması gereken önemli bir konudur.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS OF WHEAT PRODUCTION: Türkiye EXAMPLE Abstract Wheat is the source of income for numerous farmers in Türkiye and is produced in large areas. In addition, the fact that it is a staple food increases the importance of wheat even more. This study aimed to reveal the development of wheat cultivation areas, production, and foreign trade in the world and Türkiye. In addition, some technical and economic characteristics of wheatproducing farms were examined by utilizing the studies in which economic analysis of wheat production in different provinces in Türkiye. The main material of the study consisted of relevant statistics (Turkish Statistical Institute, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations) and national and international scientific studies in the literature. Wheat production and foreign trade developments in the world and Türkiye were analyzed using simple and chain indexes. In the analyzed studies, the ratio of fixed costs in wheat production was 25.80%, and the ratio of variable costs was 74.11 % on average. The relative profit in wheat production was determined as 1.28. In other words, farms earn 1.28 units of income for 1 unit of expenditure, of which 0.28 units is profit. The average size of the farms was 244.7 decares, the average size of the wheat cultivation area was 124.2 decares, and the wheat yield was 351.76 kg/da. As of 2022, Türkiye ranked 12th in the world in wheat production. It ranks 30th globally in wheat exports and 3rd in wheat imports. Türkiye has a wheat foreign trade deficit in terms of quantity and value. The wheat foreign trade deficit was 8 million 512 thousand tons and 3 billion 187 million dollars. Although Türkiye is an important wheat-importing country, it processes the imported wheat in agriculture-based industries (flour industry, pasta industry, etc.) and exports it. Although imported wheat is used in agriculture-based industries, the decrease in wheat cultivation areas and the increase in the foreign trade deficit in Türkiye over the years are important issues that should be emphasized.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Toplumların yaşamlarının devamı için önemli bir gıda maddesi olan buğday üretimden tüketime kadar tüm aşamalarda ekonominin önemli bir konusudur (Önkal, 1991). Öyle ki buğday üreminin azalması tarım sektörünün büyümesini azaltacak ve ülkelerin gıda güvenliğini etkileyecektir (Chandio vd. 2021). Üretimdeki arz ve tüketimdeki talep değişmeleri gıdada kendine yeterlilik kavramını ön plana çıkarmaktadır. Türkiye 2000’li yılların başından beri buğday ithalatının artmasına karşın buğday üretiminde kendine yeterlilik ortalaması 101,26’dır. Türkiye ithal ettiği buğdayı un sanayi, makarna sanayi vb. gibi sanayi kollarında işleyerek ürüne katma değer kazandırmakta ve ihracat geliri elde etmektedir. Bu sayede tarıma dayalı sanayi işletmelerinin atıl durumda bekleyen kapasite kullanım oranları da artmaktadır.Türkiye’de toplam işlenen tarım arazilerinin %28,54’ünde, toplam tahıl ekim alanlarının ise %40,89’unda buğday üretilmektedir (TÜİK, 2024a). Bu bakımdan birçok çiftçinin temel gelir kaynağı buğdaydır.Bu çalışmada, dünya ve Türkiye’de buğday ekim alanları ve üretimindeki gelişmeler, dış ticaretteki durum değerlendirilmeye çalışılmıştır. Dünyada buğday üretiminin ülkelere göre, Türkiye’de ise illere göre dağılımı incelenmiştir. Dünya buğday üretimi ve dış ticaretinde Türkiye’nin yeri ve önemi ortaya konulmuştur. Ayrıca Türkiye’nin farklı illerinde buğday üretiminin ekonomik analizini ele alan çalışmalarından yararlanılarak buğday üreten işletmelerin bazı özellikleri incelenmiştir. Materyal ve Metot Çalışmanın ana materyalini ikincil veriler oluşturmaktadır. İkincil veriler; Türkiye İstatistik Kurumu (TÜİK), Birleşmiş Milletler Gıda ve Tarım Örgütü (FAO), ulusal ve uluslararası literatürdeki konuyla ilgili bilimsel yayınlardan elde edilmiştir. Dünya ve Türkiye’de buğday üretimine ilişkin verilere basit ve zincirleme indeks hesabı yapılarak yıllar itibariyle değişim incelenmiştir. İndeks hesabında temel amaç nispi artış veya azalışları ortaya koymaktır. Basit indekste her yıl temel alınan yıla oranlanarak hesaplanırken, zincirleme indekste her yıl bir önceki yıla oranlanarak hesaplanmaktadır. Araştırma Bulguları ve Tartışma Dünya buğday ekim alanı 2000-2022 yılları arasında 213-220 milyon hektar arasında değişmektedir. 2000-2004 yılları ortalamasında 213 milyon 536 bin hektar olan buğday ekim alanı 2022 yılında %2,63 artarak 219 milyon 154 bin hektara çıkmıştır. Aynı tarihler itibariyle dünya buğday üretimi ise 590-810 milyon ton arasında değişmektedir. 2000-2004 yılları ortalamasına göre 590 milyon 516 bin ton olan buğday üretimi %36,90 artarak 2022 yılında 808 milyon 442 bin tona yükselmiştir. Bir önceki döneme göre üretimdeki değişim 1210 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal incelendiğinde en fazla artış %8,96 ile 2015-2019 yılları ortalamasında gerçekleşmiştir. Dünya buğday ekim alanlarında çok fazla bir değişim olmamasına rağmen üretim miktarı her geçen yıl artmaktadır. Dünya buğday verimi 2000-2004 yılları ortalamasında hektara 2.764 kg iken 2022 yılında %33,44 artarak hektara 3.689 kg olarak gerçekleşmiştir (Çizelge 1). Dünya buğday verimi incelenen yıllar itibariyle artış eğilimindedir. Dünya buğday ekim alanlarının çok fazla değişmemesine karşın üretim miktarının artmasının sebebi olarak verimdeki artışlar gösterilebilir. Çizelge 1.

Araştırmaların farklı yıllarda yapılması sebebi ile buğday üretiminin maliyet ve kârlılık göstergeleri oransal olarak incelenmiştir. İncelenen çalışmalarda buğday üretiminde sabit masrafların oranı %11,92 ile %43,91 arasında değişmekte olup ortalama %25,80 olarak belirlenmiştir. Değişen masraflar ise %56,09 ile %88,08 arasında değişmekte olup ortalama %74,11 olarak tespit edilmiştir. Buğday üretiminde nispi kâr Ağrı’da 0,88, Erzurum’da 0,81’dir. Bu illerdeki işletmeler buğday üretimi için yaptıkları masrafları dahi karşılayamamakta olup zarar etmektedirler. Kırıkkale’nin Çelebi ilçesinde yapılan çalışmada buğday üretimi için nispi kâr 1,97 olarak hesaplanmış olup en kârlı bölge olmuştur. Genel olarak ise buğday üretimde nispi kâr 1,28 olarak belirlenmiş ve buğday üretiminden elde edilen gelirin masrafları karşıladığı ve işletmelerin kâr ettikleri tespit edilmiştir. Araştırmalarda buğday verimi ise dekara 102,22 kg ile 506,29 kg arasında değişmekte olup ortalama 351,76 kg olarak belirlenmiştir (Çizelge 10). 1220 VI.

Sonuç ve Öneriler Bu çalışmada dünyada ve Türkiye’deki buğday üretimi ve dış ticaretinin seyri, Türkiye’deki buğday üretiminin yapısal analizi üzerine bir inceleme yapılmıştır. Buğday üretimi Türkiye’nin tarım sektöründe ve ülke ekonomisi için önemli bir yere sahiptir. Bu öneme rağmen buğday üretiminde nispi kârın düşük olması, dış ticaretteki dengesizlikler ve verim düşüklüğü gibi faktörler işletmelerin karşılaştıkları zorluklardır. Türkiye, dünya buğday üretim sıralamasında yüksek bir konumda olmasına rağmen, dış ticaret açığının sürekli artması ve ekim alanlarının daralması, buğday üretiminin geleceği için endişe vericidir. Bu nedenle, buğday ekim alanlarını, üretimini ve verimini artıracak destekleme politikalarına ve buğday üretimindeki yapısal sorunlara çözüm bulmaya odaklanılması gerekmektedir. Ayrıca, tarıma dayalı sanayi kollarında işlenen buğdayın katma değerinin artırılarak ihraç edilmesi, sektörün sürdürülebilirliği açısından önemlidir. 1221 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal HEAVY METALS POLLUTED SOIL TREATMENT BY PHYTOREMEDIATION IN VIETNAM – A REVIEW Nguyen Thi Kim PHUOC (ORCID:0000-0002-8714-9080) Kien Giang University, Faculty of Natural Resources – Environment, Kien Giang Province, Vietnam Email: ntkphuoc@vnkgu.edu.vn Le Tran Thanh LIEM (ORCID: 0000-0002-9395-9346) Can Tho University, College of Rural Development, Can Tho City, Vietnam Email: lttliem@ctu.edu.vn Abstract Heavy metals play an essential role in living organisms because they participate in the structure of enzymes, proteins, biochemical processes, etc. However, many heavy metals are toxic to human health and the environment, with different levels of impact depending on the type of heavy metal. Four heavy metals have the most significant effect on living organisms: As (in the form of organic As), Hg (in the form of Methylmercury), Pb (Pb2+), and Cd (Cd2+). The effects of heavy metals on human health often manifest through the accumulation of heavy metals in food, mainly from crop products. Plants are intermediaries that absorb, accumulate, and transport heavy metals from soil, water, and air to human and animal bodies. Therefore, to minimize the effects of heavy metals on human and animal health, pay attention to the existence and absorption of heavy metals in the soil and the ability of plants to absorb heavy metals, especially in areas at risk of heavy metal pollution. Using plants to treat pollution in general and heavy metals, in particular, is commonly called “Phytoremediation.” Phytoremediation is one of the methods many countries choose to treat heavy metal contamination in soil because of its high feasibility, financial savings, and environmental landscape improvement. As a developing country, Vietnam has limited financial resources for ecological restoration, so phytoremediation is an entirely suitable choice. Studies in Vietnam show that Lantana camara L., Vetiveria zizanioides, Pteris vittata, Pityrogramma calomelanos, and Eleusine indica are lead (Pb) hyperaccumulators. Arsenic (As) can be effectively treated by Pteris vittata, Eleusine indica, and Bidens pilosa L. Plants that have sound potential at absorbing Cadmium (Cd) include Solanum nigrum L., Helianthus annuus, Phragmıtes Australis and Eleusine indica. Pteris vittata, Jussiaea fissendocarpa Haines, and Saccharum Arundinaceum can accumulate high Zinc (Zn) levels in their biomass. In Vietnam, Vetiveria zizanioides, Phragmites Australis, and other plants of the Polypodiaceae family are commonly researched and applied to treat heavy metals in soil. In addition, some scientists also focus on researching native plant species that grow on lands with high heavy metal content to find more plant species that super absorb heavy metals. However, studies on treating plant biomass after using them to absorb heavy metals have not received much attention. Therefore, scientists in Vietnam need to focus on researching this issue in the future to support phytoremediation technology better. Keywords: heavy metals, hyperaccumulator, phytoremediation, polluted soil. 1224 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INTRODUCTION Soil is a non-renewable natural resource that plays a significant role in all human activities. When soil is polluted, the ecosystem is damaged and causes many severe diseases in humans and animals through the food chain. In industrialization and modernization, there are more and more factories and areas. Concentrated industries were built and put into operation, creating a volume of industrial products accounting for a high proportion of the entire product of the national economy. Besides, industrial production also causes many adverse effects on the environment, especially the soil environment. Not only Vietnam but also countries worldwide are facing enormous challenges with the problem of soil environmental pollution because it threatens the habitat of many types of organisms (Hoang, 2021).One of the leading agents that pollute the soil environment that scientists are concerned about is heavy metals. Heavy metal elements in the soil environment exist in many different forms. Existence forms of heavy metals depend on environmental conditions in the soil and soil properties. Heavy metals play an essential role in living organisms because they participate in the structure of enzymes, proteins, biochemical processes, etc. However, many heavy metals are toxic to human health and the environment, with different levels of impact depending on the type of heavy metal. Many causes of soil heavy metal pollution include industrial waste, battery industry, mining activities, mechanical engineering, traffic, precipitation, domestic waste, and fertilizers ( Khoa et al., 2012). Studies conducted in Vietnam have shown that heavy metal pollution occurs in most types of soil, such as urban soil (Binh et al., 2020), soil in craft villages (Pho et al., 2022), agricultural land (Huong et al., 2012; Na and Bai, 2019; Na et al., 2023; Tuyen, 2024), landfill soil (Ha, 2018; Thang and Viet, 2022), industrial park soil (Binh and Hoang, 2020), mineral mining areas (Hoai and Khanh, 2021).Biological systems require the presence of certain metals, including Cu and Zn, which have a specific concentration range and become hazardous at higher levels (Garbisu and Alkorta, 2003). Four heavy metals have the most significant effect on living organisms: As (in the form of organic As), Hg (in the form of Methylmercury), Pb (Pb2+), and Cd (Cd2+) (Sharma and Agrawal, 2005). The effected of heavy metals to human health is often manifest through the accumulation of heavy metals in food, mainly from crop products. Treatment is necessary for soil concentrations of heavy metals that have surpassed safe limits (Baker et al., 1994). Various approaches, such as chemical, physical, and biological, accomplish soil remediation. While chemical treatments utilize powerful acids and chelators to cleanse polluted soils, physical treatments entail removal from contaminated places (soil excavation), deep burial (landfilling), and capping. Plants are intermediaries that absorb, 1225 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal accumulate, and transport heavy metals from soil, water, and air to human and animal bodies (Zwolak et al., 2019). Therefore, to minimize the effects of heavy metals on human and animal health, pay attention to the existence and absorption of heavy metals in the soil and the ability of plants to absorb heavy metals, especially in areas at risk of heavy metal pollution. Using plants to treat pollution in general and heavy metals, in particular, is commonly called “Phytoremediation.” Phytoremediation is one of the methods many countries choose to treat heavy metal contamination in soil because of its high feasibility, financial efficiency, and environmental landscape improvement (Ansari et al., 2016). Finding suitable plant species has been the focus of numerous research efforts in Vietnam on applying plants to treat heavy metals on various soil types. This review article summarizes recent research and applications related to phytoremediation of heavy metal-contaminated soils in Vietnam, including the investigation and selection of plant species that hyperaccumulating arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn); introducing plant species commonly used to treat heavy metals in soil; Survey and evaluate the ability of native plant species to treat with heavy metals-contaminated soil increases efficiency and reduces processing costs; presenting methods for treating plant biomass after adsorbing heavy metals. 2. RESEARCH RESULTS ON THE ABILITY OF PLANTS TO HYPERACCUMULATE SOME HEAVY METALS IN SOIL. Hyperaccumulation is the uptake, translocation, and accumulation of heavy metals at concentrations higher than the surroundings in different plant parts (Maestri et al., 2010). Three primary characteristics set hyperaccumulators apart from non-hyperaccumulating plants and are necessary for hyperaccumulation: 1) a significantly higher capacity to absorb heavy metals from the soil, 2) improved metal ion translocation from the root to the shoot, and 3) a significantly higher capability to detoxify and sequester incredibly enormous levels of heavy metals in the shoots (Rascio and Navari-Izzo, 2011). Plants that are hyperaccumulators can accumulate heavy metals in their aboveground organs at concentrations that are 100 – 1000 times higher than those of nonhyperaccumulators, all without showing any overt signs of cytotoxicity (Jabeen et al., 2009; Grobelak et al., 2010; Rascio and Navari-Izzo, 2011). This review paper will discuss four typical soil metals-Cd, As, Pb, and Zn-that plants in Vietnam hyperaccumulate. 2.1 Lead (Pb) Hanh and Zarli (2007) conducted experimental planting of Lantana camara L. on soil samples taken at some locations at risk of Pb pollution in Ho Chi Minh City. The results showed that, 1226 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal when growing Lantana camara L. in control soil without Pb, the Pb content in the roots was only 0.4 mg.kg−1; But when the Pb content in the soil increases to 1  103 mg.kg−1, plants can absorb up to 0.4  103 mg.kg−1 of Pb on a dry weight basis without harm to growth and development. When growing plants in a soil environment that is periodically treated every two weeks, each time with a Pb content of 1  103 mg.kg−1, after seven times of treatment, the accumulated Pb content in the soil is up to 7  103 mg.kg−1, plants can accumulate up to 1.7  103 mg.kg−1 of Pb in roots, without significant growth differences compared to plants grown in Pb-free environments. Lantana camara L. can increase from an initial dry weight of 7.87 g; after 105 days of planting, the dry biomass rises about 15 times. Lantana camara L. can absorb up to 1% of Pb, on a dry weight basis, in its root system. This physiological characteristic makes it possible for the plant to be used as a plant to decontaminate Pb in soil.Research results of Phuong et al. (2023) showed that Vetiver grass (Vetiveria zizanioides) can grow in Pbcontaminated farmland. With a Pb content in the soil of about 2,500 mg.kg−1, after three months from planting, the ability to accumulate Pb in the leaves and roots of Vetiver plants reaches the highest threshold (corresponding to 908.83 mg.kg-1). At the same time, the ability of Vetiver grass to remove Pb from the soil is also the highest (14.23 mg.kg−1). According to Son et al. (2018), when growing Vetiver grass on soil around the lead and zinc mine with an initial Pb content of 1,670 mg.kg-1, the accumulation in their leaves and roots reached 641.41 mg.kg−1 after three months of the experiment. However, this accumulation ability gradually decreases after three months of planting. Studies show that the ability to accumulate in the roots of Vetiver grass is many times higher than in its leaves and that the Pb accumulation rate in biomass accounts for 36 − 38% of the Pb content in the soil. Two species of Polypodiaceae family, including Pityrogramma calomelanos L. and Pteris vittata, are also plants that can grow well on soils with high Pb content (<1,000 mg.kg−1). After 45 days of planting, Pityrogramma calomelanos L. absorbed and accumulated the highest Pb content in the stem of 1,342 mg.kg−1 and in the roots of 1,956 mg.kg−1 (Dung et al., 2022 ), Meanwhile, Pteris vittata, accumulates the highest Pb content of 147.34 mg.kg−1 in shoots and 3,267.86 mg.kg−1 in roots (Tua et al., 2011).Eleusine indica is also highly appreciated by scientists for its ability to accumulate Pb. According to Phuong et al. (2018), the Pb content in soil is about 1,500 − 3,000 mg.kg−1, and the ability to accumulate Pb in stems and leaves reaches 149.25 to 189.60 mg.kg-1 and in roots reaches 1,332.65 to 2,754.6 mg.kg−1, the ability of plants to remove Pb from soil is high, reaching 14.01 - 14.36 mg.tree−1 after three months of 1227 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal experimental planting. During the same period of experimental planting, research by Son et al. (2018) showed that the accumulated Pb content in roots was 121.08 mg.kg−1, the accumulated Pb content in leaf stems was 17.97 mg.kg−1 with the initial Pb content in soil being 1,671.01 mg.kg−1. Research results show that Eleusine indica can achieve a high cumulative effect after three months (90 days) of planting. Pb accumulation in roots is always much higher than in stems and leaves.

In the study of Anh (2016), Pteris vittata contains more than 0.1% in the aboveground part of the plant. After 16 weeks of growing Pteris vittata on soil with an initial As content of 1,420 mg.kg−1, the accumulated As content in the biomass of Pteris vittata reached 4,789 mg.kg−1 in shoot and 818.9 mg.kg−1 in the roots. Anh et al. (2010) studied the effects of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) on the ability to grow and accumulate As of Pteris vittata. This study also showed that the concentration accumulated in the aboveground part of Pteris vittata is always much higher than in the roots. This is a massive advantage of this fern when applied to environmental treatment. The ability to grow and accumulate As of Pteris vittata is positively influenced by the P and N content added to the experiment. The growth and As accumulation of Pteris vittata is highest when N is added at 100 ppm − 200 ppm and P is added at a concentration of 800 ppm. When 1228 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal growing both of these fern species on As-polluted soil with the addition of organic and inorganic fertilizers, their ability to accumulate As will increase from 2 times (Pityrogramma calomelanos) to 6 times (Pteris vittata) (Anh, 2014).A study by Nghiem et al. (2016) showed that Bidens pilosa L grew usually, and yield did not change much when increasing As in soil from 0 ppm to 500 ppm. But when it reached 1,000 ppm, productivity showed signs of decreasing. The As content in the roots of Bidens pilosa L also increased as the As concentration in the soil increased and reached a maximum of 240.70 mg.kg-1 biomass at 3,000 ppm As. However, at 3,000 ppm, some Bidens pilosa L died, growth ability is much poorer, and the total amount of As absorbed by the plant will certainly be low. Ha et al. (2019) also concluded that Bidens pilosa L. has excellent potential in phytostabilizing As and heavy metal-contaminated mined soils due to its significant contribution to reducing As content in soil by accumulating in their biomass. Eleusine indica L. is also a plant that absorbs As well when the accumulated content in the shoot is 499 mg.kg-1 and in the root is 791.8 mg.kg−1 after 16 weeks of planting in soil with an initial As content of 1,420 mg.kg−1 (Anh, 2016). In addition to the above plants, some plants in nature also have the potential to accumulate As in biomass, such as Phragmites australis (Linh and Canh, 2018), Vetiveria zizanioides (Danh et al., 2012).

S. nigrum grows, develops, and produces suitable biomass in normal farming conditions. This is an advantage of choosing this object when using plants to treat polluted soil. S. nigrum can live and grow in soil contaminated with Cd from 0 − 200 mg.kg−1, in soil contaminated with Cd from 10 − 25 mg.kg−1, growing S. nigrum effectively treats the highest Cd storage. Aboveground biomass 1229 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal (stems, leaves, flowers, shoots) accumulates more Cd than belowground biomass (roots). The total Cd content can accumulate up to 914.2 mg.kg−1 (dry biomass) (Hung, 2016). In an experiment by Phuong et al. (2016), with a Cd content in the soil of about 50 mg.kg−1, the biomass of the tree reaches 22.30 mg.tree−1, the accumulated Cd content in the leaf stem is 152.52 mg.kg−1, in the roots, is 745.45 mg.kg−1 and the highest ability to remove Cd from the soil, reaching 5.21 mg.tree−1.Helianthus annuus is evaluated for its potential to control the spread of Cd in the ecosystem as a plant that can survive in high metal concentrations. Many scientific reports show that H. annuus can absorb and accumulate heavy metals in roots but rarely in shoots and branches (Saxena et al., 1999; Lin et al., 1999; Lin et al., 2003). Research by Thao and Hien (2017) pointed out that the range of Cd concentration in soil reaching the threshold of 50 mg.kg−1) can be considered a reference value for devising a metal detoxification strategy in polluted areas.Phragmites australis is also a species that accumulates high Cd in its biomass. P. australis can absorb and accumulate Cd in stems and leaves more than in roots (Minh and Hai, 2016; Linh and Canh, 2018). The accumulated Cd content in P. australıs after eight months of planting increased 41.17 times compared to the initial content. Research by Van et al. (2013) showed that P. Australis can grow well on polluted soils after ore mining, with the highest Cd content in the soil up to 37.14 mg.kg−1The highest accumulated Cd content was 33.38 mg.kg−1 in roots and 8.89 mg.kg−1 in shoots.Eleusine indica L. can grow and develop in Cd-polluted farmland. With a Cd content in soil of about 50 − 200 mg.kg−1, the accumulated Cd content in the leaf stem of E. indica reaches 75.61 mg.kg−1 to 195.21 mg.kg−1, and in the roots of E. indica reached 365.09 mg.kg−1 to 482.08 mg.kg−1. The ability of plants to remove Cd from the soil is relatively high, reaching 2,883 − 2,973 mg.tree−1 (Phuong et al., 2018). If appropriate N, P, and K are supplemented, after 16 weeks of planting, E.indica can absorb Cd with a content of 41.2 mg.kg−1 in shoots and 160.7 mg.kg−1 in roots from soil containing the initial Cd content is 200 mg.kg−1 (Anh, 2016). 1230 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Table 3. Cd concentration in soil (before the experiment) and in plant biomass (after the experiment) Plant Cd Concentration (mg.kg−1) Soil 50 Shoots 152.52 References Roots 745.45 Biomass 897.97 Solanum nigrum 50 Phragmıtes australıs 37,14 Eleusine indica Phuong et al., 2016 914.2 Hung, 2016 Van et al., 2013 8,89 33,38 42,27 50-200 75.61 - 195.21 365.09 - 482.08 440.7 – 677.29 200 41.2 160.7 201.9 Phuong et al., 2018 Anh, 2016 2.4 Zinc (Zn) Pteris vittata’s ability to accumulate Zn in the stems and roots of the plant increases when the Zn content in the soil increases. However, the increase is not linearly proportional to the Zn concentration in the soil. When the Zn concentration in the soil rises from 300 − 1,500 mg.kg−1, the plant’s ability to accumulate Zn only increases from 345.46 − 580.09 mg.kg−1 for the stem and from 3,430.70 − 5,380.17 mg.kg−1 for the stem and roots. Like with the Pb tolerance experiment, when considering the Zn accumulation rate between the roots and shoots of Pteris vittata in the experimental concentrations, this number does not fluctuate much (in the range of 8.5 − 10.5). This proves that the Zn concentration in the soil does not significantly affect the ratio of Zn concentration in parts of Pteris vittata. Thus, Pteris vittata can withstand Zn concentrations up to 1500 mg.kg−1 in soil. However, the best tolerance and removal of Zn is at a concentration of 300 mg.kg−1 (Tua et al., 2011). After growing Pteris vittata for 16 weeks on soil (with an initial Zn content of 3,267 mg.kg−1) taken from mining sites, analysis results showed that Pteris vittata can accumulate Zn about 810.2 mg.kg−1 in shoots and 1,298.8 mg.kg−1 in roots (Anh, 2016).Jussiaea fissendocarpa haines have been proven by many domestic and foreign authors to have the capacity to accumulate great quantities of heavy metals in the body. However, combining microbial strains can help increase the heavy metal content accumulated in plant parts, shortening the pollution treatment time (Hung et al.,2010). The absorption of heavy metals (Cu, Zn, Pb) of J.F.haines plants in the roots increased with the amount of inoculant applied to the soil and was significantly higher than the control. In the formula of fertilizing inoculant/kg dry soil, the highest absorption of heavy metals was 124.51 mg.kg−1 Zn; 41.44 mg.kg−1 Pb; 20.57 mg.kg−1 Cu, respectively (Hung et al., 2010). Research 1231 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal by Kieu et al. (2011) also showed that growing J.F.haines in soil supplemented with microbial strains will increase the efficiency of Zn accumulation in biomass by 2.5 times compared to without supplemented with microbial strains (increased from 44.9 mg.kg−1 to 113.18 mg.kg−1).Saccharum arundinaceum: The amount of Zn accumulated in the tree after planting is higher than that of the original tree. After four months of planting, the accumulated Zn content in some plants was 30.3 mg.kg−1 (in stems and leaves) and 50.39 mg.kg−1 (in roots). The Zn content in S.arundinaceum roots is absorbed 1.66 times more than in the leaves. After eight months of planting S.arundinaceum, the Zn content accumulated in plants is very high: Zn content in leaves and stems is 79.87 mg.kg−1. Accumulation in roots is 111.44 mg.kg−1. The Zn content in S.arundinaceum roots is absorbed 1.4 times more than in the leaves (Hoa et al., 2022). Table 3.

SURVEY OF NATIVE PLANT SPECIES CAPABLE OF ACCUMULATING SOIL HEAVY METALS Related to this content, in Vietnam, there have been studies on surveying, screening, and evaluating the ability of native plants to accumulate and process heavy metals in soil. These species live on soil contaminated with very high levels of heavy metals. Hung and Tra (2021) focused on screening native plant species with the ability to absorb the heavy metal Chromium (Cr) to treat contaminated soil in Long Khanh City, Dong Nai province. Forty-eight plant species with their outer morphology specific to heavy metal hyperaccumulators were collected. After examining scientific names and making a checklist of plant species, the results presented that there were 16 orders, 21 families, and 37 genera capable of accumulating heavy metals. Among them, four plant species survived in Cr-contaminated soil 1232 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal from 150 − 350 mg.kg−1 dried soil, concluding: (1) Cyperus rotundus L., (2) Cynodon dactylon (L) Pers., (3) Amaranthus spinosus L., and (4) Solanum nigrum L. The results of the assessment of Lead (Pb) accumulation in native plants growing on coal mine sites in Northeastern Vietnam showed that all three species of plants could grow and welldevelop in the environment with the concentrations of Pb. The average Pb accumulated was the highest in Lantana camara at 3.38 mg.kg−1, followed by Eleusine indica and Aglaonema muntifolium at 1.67 mg.kg−1 and 1.37 mg.kg−1, respectively. Based on the enrichment coefficients for stem, leaves and root values, the plant was separated into two groups, including hyperaccumulator (A.muntifolium) and photo stabilizer (L.camara and E.indica) (Dung et al., 2022). Fifteen native plant species grow in a Pb recycling zone of Dong Mai village, Hung Yen province, Vietnam. Hymenachne acutigluma (Steud.) Gilliland, a potential hyperaccumulator of Pb (1,160 mg.kg−1-DW), is considered the best candidate for phytoremediation of Pbcontaminated soil (Ha et al., 2019). Ha et al. (2019) evaluated the phytoextraction and phytostabilization potential, two standard techniques of phytoremediation, of 21 plant species growing logically at the largest tungsten (W) mine in Vietnam−the second largest production of W in the world. The results indicated that hyperaccumulation levels (mg.kg−1-DW) were obtained for only As in Pityrogramma calomelanos (2400) and Pteris vittata L. (1860). Based on the recorded hyperaccumulation levels, translocation and accumulation factors, biomass, and fast growth of these plants, P. calomelanos and P. vittata were considered promising native plants for the phytoextraction of As contaminated soils. Bidens pilosa L. also has excellent potential for phytostabilization of mining soils contaminated with As and heavy metals.The research of Hung et al. (2018) was conducted for two years in northern Tan Uyen, Binh Duong province, Vietnam, to screen native plant species capable of absorbing the heavy metal Cd. The results showed that only 9 per 52 plant species studied were able to live in soil contaminated with Cd with concentrations from 25 to 50 mg.kg-1, of which Solanum nigrum L. and Physalis angulata, BF above 10, were considered to be Cd super accumulation.Anh et al. (2011) determined the heavy metal uptake into shoots and roots of 33 indigenous plant species in Thai Nguyen Province, Vietnam. Two species of the plants investigated, Pteris vittata L. and Pityrogramma calomelanos L. were hyperaccumulators, containing more than 0.1% heavy metals in their shoots. Eleusine indica L., Cynodon dactylon L., Cyperus rotundus L., and Equisetum ramosissimumaccumulate very high Pb (0.15−0.65%) and Zn (0.22−1.56%) concentration in their roots. 1233 VI.

TREATMENT OF PLANT BIOMASS AFTER THEIR HEAVY METAL ABSORPTION Recently, many research projects worldwide have been treating or utilizing accumulated plant biomass rich in metals, such as Keller et al. (2005) investigated whether thermal treatment could be a practicable option for evaporatively separating metals from the plant residues. This study uses a laboratory reactor scale designed to simulate the volatilization performance of heavy metals in a grate furnace. Hao et al. (2018) reported a greener and more effective process of hydrothermal change of rice straw (Cd low accumulated crop) and Elsholtzia splendens (Cu accumulated plant) to improve the metals and simultaneously produce biofuel for harmless treatment and resource reuse. In the research of Zhi et al. (2020), for the initial time, a mesoporous carbon-supported nano CdS (CdS@C) photocatalyst was gained by in situ upcycling of Cd-enriched Sedum plumbizincicola biomass through a mixture of pyrolysis carbonization and hydrothermal reaction. In the study of Haiwei et al. (2022), CaO/Ca(ClO)2 was used to promotion As retrieval in hydrothermal liquefaction of As-enriched Pteris vittata L. Anaerobic digestion (AD) approach a guarantee to covert phytoremediation biomass into renewable energy (biogass) and control soil contamination. Accumulation of heavy metals in digestive substrates affects the enzymatic activities of methanogenic bacteria in AD (Aman et al., 2022). In general, research worldwide focuses mainly on treating hyperaccumulated plant biomass, recovering heavy metals, and recycling biomass to create fuel. The thermal method is commonly used to treat heavy metal hyperaccumulator plant biomass.However, The number of studies on treating plant biomass after heavy metal absorption is still minimal. In 2014, Minh and Hai studied the treatment of fern and vetiver biomass adsorbing heavy metals (Pb, Cd, As) after planting on post-mining land using the ashing method. Fresh biomass of Ferns and Vetiver is collected and dried, and after ashing, it is further treated with lime to reduce the content of mobile heavy metals. Research results show that after ashing the tree, biomass decreased significantly, only 5−6% compared to the original. Using lime mixed with ash for two months has dramatically reduced the amount of mobile heavy metals in the soil. The total heavy metals content in the ash before and after the experiment did not change much. However, the mobile heavy metals content in the ash after treatment with lime has changed clearly. This is very meaningful in limiting the harmful effects of heavy metals in soil. 1234 VI.

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION 5.1 Conclusion Research related to the field of plant application for heavy metal treatment in Vietnam has produced several valuable results, including: 1. Researching about Hyperaccumulators: - Pb: Lantana camara L., Vetiveria zizanioides, Pityrogramma calomelanos, Pteris vittata, and Eleusine indica - As: Pteris vittata, Eleusine indica, and Bidens pilosa L. - Cd: Solanum nigrum L., Helianthus annuus, Phragmıtes Australis and Eleusine indica. - Zn: Pteris vittata, Jussiaea fissendocarpa Haines, and Saccharum Arundinaceum . 2. In Vietnam, Vetiveria zizanioides, Phragmites Australis, and other plants of the Polypodiaceae family are commonly researched and applied to treat heavy metals in soil 3. Some scientists also research native plant species that grow on lands with high heavy metal content to find more plant species that super absorb heavy metals. 4. The number of studies on treating plant biomass after heavy metal absorption is still very limited in Vietnam. 5.1 Recommendation: - Scientists in Vietnam need to focus on researching this issue in the future to support phytoremediation technology better. - The above research is mainly carried out in the laboratory. Therefore, in the future, it is necessary to turn these research results into applied research. 1235 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal IDENTIFICATION OF ARTICHOKE (Cynara scolymus) ON SEEDLINGS WITH THE HELP OF DEEP LEARNING METHOD Abstract Deep learning is an effective artificial intelligence method used in many fields today. Ideal for dealing with large data sets and complex problems, deep learning is used in various fields such as image processing, medicine, agriculture, etc. Deep learning applications in agriculture have become popular today. Some of these applications are plant detection, object recognition, yield prediction, disease control, intelligent irrigation systems, etc. Labor costs are a major problem in harvesting the artichoke selected for the study. Manpower plays a major role in the entire growing process and harvesting of artichokes. Reducing the labor cost will directly contribute to the artichoke production process. The aim of this study is to determine the head size of artichoke on seedlings using deep learning method. Artichoke harvesting is realized by collecting the plant at the right time and in the right way, and head size is the most important factor determining the artichoke harvest. According to the results of the comparative analysis, the YOLOv8 algorithm has better object detection performance compared to YOLOv7. In particular, the YOLOv8l (large) model outperformed the other algorithms with high F1 scores and mAP@0.5:0.95 values. These findings suggest that YOLOv8l (large) can be preferred in real-time robotic harvesting applications as an advanced option for object detection. The advantages of the YOLOv8l (large) model will help farmers to optimize the artichoke harvesting process, increase efficiency and use resources more effectively.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Derin öğrenme, yapay sinir ağları kullanarak karmaşık ve soyut verileri anlamlandırma ve örüntülerini çıkarma sürecidir. Bu yöntem, makine öğrenmesinin bir alt dalıdır.Geleneksel makine öğrenmesi yöntemlerinde, verilerin elle seçilmiş bir dizi öznitelik veya nitelik ile temsil edilmesi gerekmektedir. Ancak derin öğrenme yaklaşımında ise, algoritma, girdi verilerini otomatik olarak analiz ederek önemli özellikleri kendisi belirler.Derin öğrenme algoritmaları genellikle çok katmanlı sinir ağı mimarilerinden oluşur. Bu katmanlar arasında birbirleriyle bağlantılı olan yapay sinir hücreleri yer alır ve bu hücrelerden her biri girdi sinyallerini işleyerek çıktı üretir.Derin öğrenmenin uygulama alanları oldukça geniş kapsamlıdır. Görüntü tanıma, doğal dil işleme, ses tanıma ve oyun stratejisi gibi pek çok alanda kullanılabilir. Derin öğrenme teknolojisi kullanarak yüz tanıma sistemleri geliştirilebilir veya anlamını anlayabilen konuşan robotlar oluşturulabilir.YOLOv8, YOLO (You Only Look Once) nesne algılama algoritmaları serisinde önemli bir gelişmedir. Orijinal YOLO'dan YOLOv8, YOLO-NAS ve dönüştürücülü YOLO'ya doğru bir evrimi temsil etmektedir. YOLOv8 çeşitli alanlarda uygulanarak çok yönlülüğünü ve etkinliğini ortaya koymuştur.YOLOv8, kendi başına bir derin öğrenme modelidir ve çeşitli yapay sinir ağı katmanlarından oluşur. Girdi olarak RGB görüntülerini alır ve bu görüntüler üzerinde tespit etmek istediğimiz nesneleri bulmaya çalışır. Derin öğrenme alanında YOLOv8 gibi modeller, nesne algılama problemini çözmek için yaygın olarak kullanılır. Bu modeller, otonom araçlar, güvenlik sistemleri, video analizi gibi birçok alanda kullanılabilir ve insanları ya da diğer nesneleri algılamak için büyük bir potansiyele sahiptir.Bu nedenle birçok alanda kullanılmaktadır.Pediatrik bilek travması X-ışını görüntülerinde kırık tespiti Ju ve ark.(2023), çelik yüzey kusur tespiti (Xie ve ark., 2024), otomotiv ABS fren ana silindiri kusur tespiti (Liu ve ark., 2024), termal görüntülemeye dayalı cerrahi kesi iyileşme değerlendirmesi, düşük irtifa hava görüntülerinde nesne tespiti (Zhao ve ark., 2024) ve rüzgar türbini kanadı kusurlarının tespitinde (Yang ve ark., 2024) kullanılmıştır. Ayrıca YOLOv8, çöp sınıflandırma ve algılama, uzaktan algılama görüntülerinden kırsal yerleşim alanı çıkarma (Rui ve ark., 2023), izolatör hedef tespiti (Hu ve ark., 2023) ve manyetik rezonans anjiyografide beyin arteriyovenöz malformasyon tespiti gibi uygulamalarda kullanılmıştır. Algoritmanın yetenekleri, veri toplama ve analiz için araçlar ve paketler geliştirilerek genişletilmiş, böylece çeşitli araştırma ve pratik bağlamlarda daha erişilebilir ve uygulanabilir hale getirilmiştir.Derin öğrenme, tarımsal hasatta çeşitli uygulamalarda kullanılan etkili bir yapay zeka yöntemidir. Özellikle bitki stres fenotipleme, bitki hastalıklarının sınıflandırılması ve tarımsal üretimde verimliliğin arttırılması gibi alanlarda 1244 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal derin öğrenme yöntemleri başarıyla kullanılmaktadır. Singh ve ark.(2018) bitki stres fenotipleme konusunda derin öğrenme araçlarının diğer mevcut tekniklere göre karar doğruluğu, veri boyutu gereksinimi ve çeşitli senaryolardaki uygulanabilirlik açısından karşılaştırmalı bir değerlendirmesini sunmuşlardır. Derin öğrenme ayrıca hyperspectral görüntü sınıflandırması gibi tarımsal uygulamalarda da kullanılmaktadır. Fırat ve ark.(2022) hyperspectral görüntü sınıflandırması için derin öğrenmeye dayalı bir mimari önermişlerdir. Bu tür uygulamalar, tarımsal alanlarda bitki örtüsü analizi ve tarım alanlarının izlenmesi için önemli bir araç haline gelmektedir. Ayrıca, tarımsal üretimde makine öğrenimi ve derin öğrenme tekniklerinin kullanımı, örneğin bitki hastalıklarının tespiti, mahsul verimliliğinin arttırılması ve tarımsal üretim süreçlerinin otomasyonu gibi konularda mavi yaban mersini meyvelerinin hasat edilebilirlik ve verimle ilişkilendirilen özelliklerinin belirlenmesi için derin öğrenme görüntü segmentasyonu ve çıkarma yöntemlerini kullanmıştır (Ni ve ark.,2020). Kim ve ark.(2021) otonom bir biçerdöver için zayıf denetimli mahsul alanı segmentasyonu konusunda çalışmış ve modelin küçük veri ölçeği ile kolayca uygulanabilir olduğunu göstermiştir. Li ve ark.(2023) yaptıkları çalışmada yüksek kaliteli çay toplama robotu için derin öğrenme ile tanımlama sistemi gerçekleştirmişlerdir.

Bu bağlamda, derin öğrenme yöntemlerinin tarımsal hasatta kullanımı, bitki hastalıklarının tespiti, bitki stres fenotipleme, mahsul sınıflandırması ve tarımsal verimlilik analizi gibi alanlarda önemli bir araştırma ve uygulama alanı oluşturmaktadır. Bu tekniklerin tarımsal üretimdeki rolü, gelecekteki tarımsal 1245 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal uygulamaların geliştirilmesinde ve tarımsal verimliliğin artırılmasında önemli bir rol oynayacaktır. 2.Materyal ve Yöntem 2.1.Materyal Enginar (Cynara scolymus) potansiyel sağlık faydaları ve besin değeri ile bilinen bir bitkidir. Araştırmalar enginar yaprağı ekstraktlarının anti-mikrobiyal, anti-alerjik, anti-enflamatuar ve antikanser etkiler gösteren dikafeoilkinik asitler, klorojenik asit, luteolin glukozit ve apigenin glukozit gibi antioksidan fenolik bileşikler içerdiğini göstermiştir (Tang ve ark., 2017). Ayrıca enginar brakteleri diyet lifi, fenolik içerik ve antioksidan aktivite açısından zengindir, bu da onları gıda ürünlerinde değerli bir fonksiyonel bileşen haline getirir (Dadalı, 2023). Enginarın karaciğer hasarına karşı potansiyel koruyucu etkileri ve kolesterol biyosentezi üzerindeki inhibitör etkileri vardır. (Gebhardt, 2002). Bu bulgular ışığında enginarın sağlığı geliştirici çeşitli özelliklere sahip fonksiyonel bir gıdadır. Enginar hasadı, enginar üretiminin çok önemli bir yönüdür. Çok yıllık bitkilerin en yoğun üretimi Mart-Nisan ayları arasında gerçekleşir ve bu dönem enginar hasadı için en uygun dönemdir (Smith ve ark., 2008). Hasat zamanının seçimi enginarın polifenol profilini önemli ölçüde etkilemektedir ve bu da hasat zamanının istenen polifenol içeriğine sahip enginar elde etmek için gerekli olduğunu göstermektedir (Pandino ve ark., 2013). Organik ve geleneksel olarak yetiştirilen enginarların karşılaştırıldığı bir çalışmada, enginarın organik yetiştiricilik için en uygun bitkilerden biri olduğu tespit edilmiş, bu da organik yöntemlerin enginar hasadı için etkili bir şekilde kullanılabileceğini düşündürmüştür (Yıldırım ve ark., 2020). Enginar çeşitlerinin farklı gübre rejimlerine ve gibberellik asit uygulaması gibi uygulamalara verdiği nutrasötik tepkinin hasadın kalitesini ve verimini etkileyebileceğini göstermiştir (Lombardo ve ark., 2015; Lombardo ve ark., 2022). İstenen kalite ve verim için enginar hasadını optimize etmek amacıyla hasat zamanlamasının, yetiştirme yöntemlerinin ve uygulamaların dikkate alınması gerekmektedir. 2.2.Yöntem Veri Setinin Hazırlanması: Enginar bitkisinin veri setinin hazırlanmasında Tekirdağ Naip Köyü üretici tarlarında çekilmiş hasat fotoğrafları ve videoları kullanılmıştır. Şekil 1’de örnek fotoğraflar verilmiştir. Eğitim seti ve test seti için 150 adet enginar bitkisi görseli çalışmada kullanılmıştır.Her bir fide üzerinde birden fazla enginar bulunmaktadır.Şekil 1’de veri setinde kullanılan görsellere örnek gösterilmiştir. 1246 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 1.Naip Köyü üretici tarlasından alınmış görüntüler Etiketleme ve Eğitim Seti Bir nesne tespiti modelinin, bir veri seti üzerinde eğitim gerçekleştirebilmesi için, tespit edilmesi hedeflenen nesnelerin eğitileceği veri setinde etiketlenmiş/ imzalanmış olması gerekmektedir. Bu sebeple eğitim seti için 100 görselin her birinde enginar görüntüsünü içeren kısımların sınırlayıcı kutu alanı ile işaretlenmesi yapılmıştır. 50 görsel ise test setinde kullanılmıştır.Görsel etiketlemesi yapmak için, açık kaynak topluluklarında çok sayıda program, internet sitesi ve yardımcı araç bulunmaktadır. Şekil 2 ‘de etiketleme ekranı görüntüsü gösterilmiştir. Şekil 2.Etiketleme ekranı Bu araçlardan bir tanesi ise, nesne tespiti projelerinde sıklıkla kullanılan, popüler bir web sitesi olan Roboflow’dur. Roboflow, ham görüntüleri özel olarak eğitilmiş bir bilgisayar görme modeline dönüştürmek ve onu uygulamalarda kullanmak üzere dağıtmak için gereken tüm araçları sağlayan; görüntüler üzerinde alan seçimleri, işaretlemeleri ve sınıf etiketlemeleri yapılmasını sağlayan bir web sitesidir. Bu işaretleme ve etiketleme işlemi, sitenin sahip olduğu grafiksel kullanıcı arayüzü aracılığıyla kolaylıkla yapılmaktadır. Eğitim Model Seçimi Yapmış olduğumuz projede, CNN yöntemiyle geliştirilmiş YOLO model ailesinin açık kaynak olarak geliştirilen en son versiyonu olan YOLOv8 tercih edilmiştir. RCNN benzeri iki aşamalı ağ kullanan modellere göre oldukça avantaja sahip olan YOLO model ailesinin YOLOv8 modeli, kendisinden önce geliştirilmiş sürümlere doğruluk değerleri ve hız oranı açısından avantaj sağladığı için tercih edilmiştir. 1247 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Enginarın fide üzerinde tespiti yapacak olan modelin eğitiminin başlatılması için, YOLOv8 modelinin bilgisayardaki konumuna gidilerek Python çalıştırıcı editör açıldı. Ana dizinde bulunan ve YOLOv8 eğitimini sağlayan train.py programı, çalıştırılmak üzere kontrol edildi. Bu Python programının çalıştırılması, çeşitli parametreler ile özelleştirilebilmektedir. Çalışma dahilinde, enginar için aşağıda yazılı olan kod içerisindeki parametreler ve düzenlemeler tercih edildi.  !yolo task=detect mode=train model=yolov8n.pt data={dataset.location}/data.yaml epochs=80 imgsz=640 plots=True  !yolo task=detect mode=train model=yolov8s.pt data={dataset.location}/data.yaml epochs=80 imgsz=640 plots=True  !yolo task=detect mode=train model=yolov8m.pt data={dataset.location}/data.yaml epochs=80 imgsz=640 plots=True  !yolo task=detect mode=train model=yolov8l.pt data={dataset.location}/data.yaml epochs=80 imgsz=640 plots=True task: Eğitimin hangi görevi gerçekleştireceğini belirler. “detect” nesne tespiti görevini ifade eder. mode: Modelin eğitim modunda çalıştırılacağını belirtir. YOLO, farklı modlarda çalıştırılabilir örneğin “train” eğitim için, “test” test etme veya doğrulama için kullanılabilir. model: Eğitim sırasında kullanılacak modelin yolunu ve adını belirtir. imgsz: Eğitimi yapılacak görsellerin YOLOv8 modeli tarafından düşürüleceği piksel boyutudur. --plots: Eğitim sırasında oluşturulan grafik çizimlerini ifade eder. Bu grafikler, modelin performansını izlemek için kullanılır. 3.Araştırma Sonuçları Yapılan çalışmada, nesne tanıma görevleri için özelleştirilmiş dört farklı YOLOv8 modelinin (Nano, Small, Medium, Large) performansları incelenmiştir. Analizler her bir modelin eğitim süresince kaydettiği ilerleme ile başlangıç ve bitiş epochlarında elde edilen metrik değerler üzerinden gerçekleştirilmiştir.YOLOv8s ‘un başlangıçtaki performansı, düşük bir mAP50-95 oranı ile (%2.505) olduğu görülmüştür. Ancak, model hızla olgunlaşmış ve 5. epoch itibarıyla %75.079'luk bir mAP50-95 değerine ulaşarak kayda değer bir gelişme göstermiştir.Modelin eğitimi sırasında, epoch 6'da gözlenen hafif bir kayıp artışına rağmen, model stabil bir ilerleme kaydetmiş ve mAP50-95 değerlerinde tutarlı bir yükseliş göstermiştir. Özellikle epoch 18'de %71.237'lik bir mAP50 değeri ile modelin doğru pozitif tanımlamalarda başarılı olduğu 1248 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal görülmüştür. Modelin eğitimi boyunca kayıp değerlerinde (loss values) genel bir düşüş trendi ve metriklerde (precision, recall, mAP50, mAP50-95) sürekli bir iyileşme izlenmiştir. Modelin son epoch'larına baktığımızda, YOLOv8s ‘in mAP50-95 değeri %87.825 ile en yüksek seviyeye ulaşmıştır. YOLOv8n ve YOLOv8m son epochlarda yüksek performans göstermiş olmasına karşın YOLOv8s 'in gösterdiği istikrar ve yüksek performans seviyelerine ulaşamamışlardır. YOLOv8l, özellikle başlangıç epochlarında düşük performans sergilemiş ve son epochlarda performansında sınırlı bir iyileşme gözlemlenmiştir.Ayrıca Medium ve Large modellerinin eğitimlerinin 52 ve 53. epochlarda kesilmesi, erken durdurma (early stopping) mekanizması nedeniyle gerçekleşmiştir. Erken durdurma, modelin aşırı uyuma (overfitting) gitmesini önlemek ve eğitim sürecinde kaynak kullanımını optimize etmek için tasarlanmış bir yöntemdir. Bu durum, her iki modelde de belirlenen performans eşiği altında ilerleme kaydedilmemesi sonucunda devreye girmiştir. Özellikle, bu modellerin son epochlarında doğrulama kaybında (validation loss) ve metriklerinde önemli bir iyileşme olmaması, sistem tarafından eğitimin otomatik olarak durdurulmasına yol açmıştır.Tablo 1,Tablo 2 ve Tablo 3’ de analizi sonuçları verilmiştir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Nano ve Small modeller hız açısından avantaj sağlarken, Medium ve Large modeller doğrulukta daha iyi performans göstermiştir. YOLOv8 algoritmalarının sonuçlarının hata matrisi metriklerine göre incelenmesi: F1 Score Analizi Yapılan F1 analizi ile modelin precision ve recall değerlerinin harmonik ortalaması hesaplanmakta ve modelin genel performansını ölçmekte kullanılmaktadır.Grafikte F1 Score değerlerinin başta en yüksek değeri gördüğü ve benzer değerlerde kaldığı görülmektedir. Bu durum, modelin daha ilk epochlardan iyi performans gösterdiğini ve nesneleri daha doğru bir şekilde tespit etmeye başladığını göstermektedir.Şekil 3’de F1 score analizi grafiği verilmiştir. Size: 640x640, Epoch: 80, Algorithm: Epoch: 80, Algorithm: Epoch: 80, Algorithm: Epoch: 80, Algorithm: YOLOv8n Size: 640x640, YOLOv8s Size: 640x640, YOLOv8m Size: 640x640, YOLOv8l Şekil 3.F1 score analizi grafiği Şekil 3’dek F1 score analizi grafiği verilerine göre, YOLOv8l modelin F1 puanı düşük güven eşiklerinde başlangıçta düşükken, eşik değer arttıkça F1 puanının arttığı gözlemlenmiştir. F1 1250 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal puanının artışı, yaklaşık 0.7 güven eşiğinde belirgin bir şekilde yükselmiş ve maksimum F1 puanına ulaşmıştır. YOLOv8l modelin belirli bir güven eşiği üzerinde maksimum F1 puanına ulaşabileceğini gösterir. Burada 0.72 güven eşiğinde 1.0 F1 puanına ulaşıldığı görülmektedir. YOLOv8l modelin bu eşikte tespitleri maksimum hassasiyet ve duyarlılık ile gerçekleştirdiğini işaret etmektedir. Ancak, F1 puanının 0.8'den 1.0'a kadar olan güven eşiği aralığında hafif bir düşüş göstermesi, YOLOv8l modelin en yüksek güvenlik düzeylerinde yanlış negatifleri artırabileceğini ve bu da toplam F1 puanını azaltabileceğini göstermektedir. Bu, modelin güven eşiğinin hassas bir şekilde ayarlanmasının gerekliliğini vurgulamaktadır. Precision Analizi Precision, modelin yanlış pozitifleri minimize ederek doğru pozitif tahminlerini ne kadar başarılı bir şekilde gerçekleştirdiğini ölçer. Precision grafiğinde, farklı sınıflar için elde edilen precision değerlerini gözlemlemekteyiz. Precision değeri, doğru pozitif tahminlerin toplam tahmin sayısına oranını ifade eder ve yanlış pozitiflerin minimize edilmesini hedefler. Yüksek bir precision değeri, modelin yanlış pozitifler yapma olasılığının düşük olduğunu gösterir. Şekil 4’de precision(hassasiyet) analizi grafiği verilmiştir. 1251 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Size: 640x640, Epoch: 80, Algorithm: YOLOv8n Size: 640x640, Epoch: 80, Algorithm: YOLOv8s Size: 640x640, Epoch: 80, Algorithm: YOLOv8m Size: 640x640, Epoch: 80, Algorithm: YOLOv8l Şekil 4.Precision (hassasiyet) analizi grafiği Şekil 4’deki Presicision (hassasiyet) eğrisi, farklı güven eşiklerinde YOLOv8l modelin hassasiyet değerlerinin nasıl değiştiğini ortaya koymaktadır. Grafikteki eğri, YOLOv8l modelin düşük güven eşiklerindeki hassasiyetinin oldukça düşük olduğunu, ancak güven eşiği yükseldikçe hassasiyetin belirgin bir şekilde arttığını göstermektedir. Özellikle, yaklaşık 0.68 1252 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal güven eşiği değerinde hassasiyetin 1.0'a ulaştığı görülmektedir. Bu değer YOLOv8l modelin yüksek güvenlilikle tespit yapabildiği durumları ifade etmektedir. Recall Analizi Recall, gerçek pozitiflerin ne kadar başarılı bir şekilde tahmin edildiğini ölçer ve yanlış negatifleri minimize etmeyi hedefler. Recall grafiğinde, farklı sınıflar için elde edilen Recall değerlerini gözlemlemekteyiz. Recall değeri, gerçek pozitif tahminlerin gerçek pozitiflerin toplam sayısına oranını ifade eder ve yanlış negatifleri minimize etmeyi hedefler. Şekil 5’de Recall(duyarlılık) analizi grafiği verilmiştir. Size: 640x640, Epoch: 80, Algorithm: YOLOv8n Size: 640x640, Epoch: 80, Algorithm: YOLOv8s Size: 640x640, Epoch: 80, Algorithm: YOLOv8m Size: 640x640, Epoch: 80, Algorithm: YOLOv8l Şekil 5.Recall(duyarlılık) analizi grafiği 1253 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 5’teki Recall(duyarlılık) analizi grafiğinde, YOLOv8l modeli güven eşiğinin çok düşük olduğu noktalarda neredeyse tam duyarlılık sergilediği görülmektedir. YOLOv8l modelinin mevcut tüm pozitif örnekleri tespit etme eğiliminde olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu noktada, hatta sıfır güven eşiğinde, YOLOv8l modelinin tüm pozitifleri yakalama eğiliminde olduğu anlaşılmaktadır. Ancak bu yaklaşımın yanlış pozitiflerin sayısını da artırabileceği anlamına gelmektedir. Precision-Recall Analizi Precision, modelin yanlış pozitifleri minimize ederek doğru pozitif tahminlerini ne kadar başarılı bir şekilde gerçekleştirdiğini ölçerken, Recall, gerçek pozitifleri ne kadar başarılı bir şekilde tahmin ettiğini ölçer. Precision-Recall grafiğinde, farklı sınıflar için elde edilen Precision ve Recall değerlerini gözlemlemekteyiz. Precision, doğru pozitif tahminlerin toplam tahmin sayısına oranını ifade ederken, Recall gerçek pozitiflerin tahmin edilen pozitiflerin toplam sayısına oranını ifade eder. Şekil 6’de Precision-Recall(hassasiyet-duyarlılık) analizi grafiği verilmiştir. 1254 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Size: 640x640, Epoch: 80, Algorithm: YOLOv8n Size: 640x640, Epoch: 80, Algorithm: YOLOv8s Size: 640x640, Epoch: 80, Algorithm: YOLOv8m Size: 640x640, Epoch: 80, Algorithm: YOLOv8l Şekil 6.Precision-Recall(hassasiyet-duyarlılık) analizi grafiği 1255 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 6’da Precision-Recall(hassasiyet-duyarlılık) analizi grafiğinde, yüksek duyarlılık seviyelerinde YOLOV8l modelin hassasiyetinin belirli bir düşüş gösterdiği görülmektedir. YOLOv8l modelin neredeyse tüm pozitif örnekleri tespit etme eğiliminde olduğu anlaşılmaktadır.Ancak bunun yanlış pozitif sayısında artışa yol açtığı anlamına gelmektedir. Özellikle, 0.725 mAP@0.5 değeri, modelin bu belirli duyarlılık düzeyinde ulaştığı hassasiyeti göstermektedir.Eğrinin başında gözlemlenen yüksek hassasiyet seviyesi, YOLOv8l modelin güçlü tespit kabiliyetine işaret ederken, duyarlılık değerleri düşükken hassasiyetin neredeyse mükemmel olduğunu belirtir. Duyarlılık arttıkça hassasiyetin düştüğü alanlar, YOLOv8l modelin doğru pozitif tahminler yapma kapasitesinin belirli bir duyarlılık seviyesinde sınırlı olduğunu gösterir. Bu eğri aynı zamanda, modelin doğru pozitif ve yanlış pozitifler arasında dengeli bir performans sergileme potansiyeline sahip olduğunu gösterir. Loss Function Analizi Loss Function, modelin tahminlerinin gerçek değerlerden ne kadar uzak olduğunu ölçer ve eğitim sürecinde kullanılarak modelin optimize edilmesini sağlar.Loss Function tablosunda, YOLOv8 modelinin eğitim sürecinde elde edilen Loss Function değerlerini gözlemlemekteyiz. Loss Function değeri, modelin tahminlerinin gerçek değerlerden ne kadar uzak olduğunu ölçer ve bu değerin minimize edilmesi hedeflenir. Şekil 7’de Loss Function analiz grafiği verilmiştir. 1256 VI.

Şekil 7’de Loss Function analiz grafiğinde değerlere göz attığımızda, eğitim süreci boyunca Loss Function değerlerinin genellikle 1257 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal azaldığını görüyoruz. Bu, modelin doğru tahminler yapma yeteneğinin arttığını ve tahmin hatalarının azaldığını gösterir. Şekil 8 ‘de test sonucu ekran görüntüleri verilmiştir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal YOLOv8m YOLOv8l Yukarıda verilen değerler göre analiz sonuçları şu şekildedir; ➢ YOLO Nano, hız açısından diğer modellere üstünlük sağlarken, tespit doğruluğu daha düşük seviyelerde kalmıştır. Bu, düşük güç tüketimi gerektiren uygulamalar için uygun olduğunu göstermektedir. ➢ YOLO Small, dengeli bir performans sergileyerek, ışık ve arka plan değişkenliğinde iyi sonuçlar elde etmiştir. ➢ YOLO Medium, çeşitlilik ve zorluğu daha yüksek olan veri setlerinde bile etkili bir performans göstererek, genelleştirme kabiliyeti açısından öne çıkmıştır. ➢ YOLO Large, en karmaşık sınıflandırma görevlerinde bile mükemmel doğruluk sunarak, model serisinin en güçlüsü olarak belirlenmiştir. 4.Sonuç Yapılan çalışma ile YOLOv8 modeli ve hazırlanan veri seti ile yapılan örnek eğitim ve doğrulama görsellerindeki nesne tespiti doğruluk oranları incelenmiştir. Modellerin nesne tespit başarılarını belirten metrik verileri ve doğruluk tahmin oranları incelenmesi sonucunda modelin eğitim sonucunun başarılı olduğu görülmüş ve doğrulanmıştır. İlk epochlar boyunca, eğitim ve doğrulama kayıpları hızlı bir şekilde azaldığı ve metriklerde de belirgin bir gelişme olduğu görülmüştür. Analiz sonuçlarına göre Precision, recall ve mAP değerlerinin daha yüksek seviyelerde başladığı ve sürekli olarak değişkenlik gösterdiği görülmüştür. YOLOv8l(large) modelinin iyi bir başlangıç performansı sergilediği anlaşılmıştır. Son epochlar boyunca, eğitim kaybı ve doğrulama kaybı sürekli olarak azalmış ve en düşük seviyelere ulaşmıştır. Metriklerdeki gelişme de devam etmiştir. Analiz ve doğruluk sonuçlarına göre YOLOv8l(large) modelinin en iyi eğitim modeli olduğu anlaşılmıştır. 1259 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal QUEER SİNEMADA ÖTEKİLEŞTİRME BAĞLAMINDA: YOUR NAME ENGRAVED HEREİN FİLM ANALİZİ Azra NAMUSLU Atatürk Üniversitesi, Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü, Radyo, Televizyon ve Sinema Anabilim Dalı, Erzurum- Türkiye Email: knamusluu@gmail.com Özet İnsan çağlar boyunca kimlik edinme içgüdüsüyle kendi ötekilerini yaratır. Bu kimliğin ihtiyaç duyduğu aidiyet hissidir. Tarih pek çok dönemde toplumdan belli bir kesimi dışlama, yargılama ve damgalama gibi olgulara tanık olmuştur. Bu çalışma eşcinsel bireyin öteki olma hikâyesini analiz eder ve bunu bir sinema dili haline getiren queer kavramının ortaya çıkış sürecini ele alır. Araştırmanın amacı eşcinsel imgesinin olumlu-olumsuz temsilleri üzerine queer sinemadaki filmleri analiz etmek ve bununla birlikte kavramın ortaya çıkışındaki tarihsel süreci, nasıl/neden sahiplenilerek sinema dili haline getirildiğini araştırmaktır. Aynı zamanda karşıtı olan Ana akım sinemanın tutucu tavrının sebeplerini ve örneklerini yapıtlar üzerinden içerik analizi yöntemiyle çözümlemektir. Araştırma amacına yönelik ise kuir teori çerçevesinde, muhafazakâr toplumları (din, aile ve sosyal kurumlar gibi) araştırmanın evreni ve örneklemi odağına oturtarak Yönetmenliğini Patrick Kuang Hui-Liu’nun yaptığı 2020 yapımı Tayvan yapımı Your Name Engraved Herein (Adın Buraya Kazınmış,2020) filmi ele alınmıştır. Film, sıkıyönetimin bahsedildiği 1986 yılında iki eşcinsel erkeğin öteki olma hikâyesini konu etmesi bakımında araştırmayla doğrudan örtüşür. Analiz edildiği üzere öteki olan, toplumda muhafazakâr yapı içerisinde kendi varlığını kabul ettirmekte zorluk çekmiş, toplumun her sosyal kurumunda hatta sanat olan sinema da bile hor görülmüş, fakat mücadelesini bırakmayarak kendi evrenini oluşturmuştur. Araştırmanın sonucuna göre tam anlamıyla sorun olmaktan çıkamayan eşcinsellerle ilgili olumsuz temsiller düşük bir yüzdeye sahip olsa dahi düşmüştür. Bu da sinemanın giderek daha olumlu temsiller çıkarması için önündeki engelleri aşmaya hevesli olduğu kanısını ortaya çıkarır. Mücadelesini sürdüreceğini gösterir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal IN THE CONTEXT OF OTHERALIZATION IN QUEER CINEMA: MOVIE ANALYSIS OF YOUR NAME ENGRAVED HERE Abstract Throughout the ages, humans create their own others with the instinct of gaining identity. This is the feeling of belonging that identity needs. History has witnessed phenomena such as exclusion, judgment and stigmatization of certain segments of society in many periods. This study analyzes the homosexual individual's story of being the other and discusses the emergence of the concept of queer, which turns this into a cinema language. The aim of the research is to analyze films in queer cinema on positive and negative representations of the homosexual image, and to investigate the historical process of the emergence of the concept and how/why it was appropriated and turned into a cinema language. At the same time, it is to analyze the reasons and examples of the conservative attitude of mainstream cinema, which is its opposite, through the works by content analysis method. For the purpose of the research, within the framework of queer theory, the 2020 Taiwanese film Your Name Engraved Herein (2020), directed by Patrick Kuang Hui-Liu, focuses on conservative societies (such as religion, family and social institutions) as the universe and sample of the research. It is discussed. The film directly coincides with the research in that it tells the story of two gay men becoming the other in 1986, when martial law was mentioned. As analyzed, the other had difficulty in accepting its existence within the conservative structure of society, was despised in every social institution of the society, even in cinema, which is an art, but it did not give up its struggle and created its own universe. According to the results of the research, negative representations about homosexuals, who cannot completely cease to be a problem, have decreased, even if they are at a low percentage. This suggests that cinema is eager to overcome its obstacles to produce increasingly positive representations. It shows that he will continue his struggle.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ İnsan etrafında ötekiler yaratarak yaşamı şekillendirir ve böylece dogmalar kurar, kurduğu bu dogmalardan da güç alır. Tüm bu dogmalar içinde de yaşamın sınırlı ve düzenli olmasıyla aidiyet hissine kapılır. Aidiyet hissi, ötekinin var olmasıyla yeterince harmanlanınca da yaşam daha anlamlı bir hale gelir. Toplumun özellikle eril bir yapıya sahip olması ve bu eril zihniyetin, zayıf, güçsüz ve farklı cinsel tercihlere olan gruplara karşı değişmez kurallar koyması, toplumun bir noktada ayrışmasına ve ötekilerin nihayetinde var olmasına sebep olur. Bu öteki bir çingene, Yahudi, siyahi, kadın ya da eşcinsel olabilir. Çalışmada öteki olarak karşımıza çıkan “eşcinsel” birey araştırılmıştır. Queer kavramı ile birlikte zaman içinde nasıl algılandığına, özellikle sinema gibi güçlü bir sanatın içinde nasıl tasvir edildiğine bakılmıştır.1990’larda AIDS hastalığının yaygınlaşması ve bu hastalığın yalnızca eşcinsel bireylerden bulaştığı iddiasının ortaya atılması kavramın, LGBTİ+ aktivistleri tarafından bilinçli ve stratejik olarak sahiplenilmesine sebep olmuştur. Queer birey tarihin pek çok kesiminde kavramın kendisi gibi öteki, iğreti, tuhaf ve acayip olmuştur. Fakat bugün queer’in anlamına baktığımızda “öteki” olandan çok tek tip kimliği dayatanlara, bunu sınırlayanlara ve cinsel yönelimleri görmezden gelenlere karşı; din, aile, ırk, hukuk gibi güçlü sosyal yapılara meydan okuduğunu söylemek yanlış olmaz. Tüm bunlar neticesinde kavramın yaratılan olumsuz anlamdan çıkartılması ve dayatılan tüm normlara başkaldırması queer olan için önemli bir adımdır. Queer her ne kadar ötekileştirilse de sosyoloji gibi bilimlerin içerisinde sınırlı kalmayıp sinemanın da sorunu haline gelmiştir.Araştırmanın amacına yönelik Tayvan yapımı Your Name Engraved Herein filminde “öteki/ötekileştirilen” bireyin tarih boyunca nasıl/neden ve ne şekilde var olduğuna, değişimin nelerle ve ne sebeple başladığına bakılmıştır. Aynı zamanda kavramın evrimleşerek sinemaya kadar uzanışına ve tüm bu süreçlerle birlikte yapılan filmlerin Ana akım sinemanın yarattığı cinsiyetçi ideolojiye karşı farklı bir alternatif oluşturabilmesi üzerinde durulmuştur. Sonucunda ise olumlu temsillerin çok az olduğu fakat eskiye nazaran sinemanın bunun için çabaladığı kanısına varılmıştır. QUEER NEDİR? Queer ve ya Kuir, 90’lı yıllardan önce “Tuhaf, acayip, iğreti, dengesiz, kötü ve değersiz” gibi anlamlarla ifade edilirdi. Batı’da uzun bir sürede eşcinselleri aşağılamak için kullanıldı ve sonrasında bilinçli ve stratejik olarak karşıt bir ifade oluşturacak şekilde sahiplenildi. Queer bugün bir kimlik modeli olmaktan çok, kimlikleri birbirine bağlayan, kimliği gözetmeksizin herkesin homofobi ile kavga ettiği ve bir araya geldiği bir kavram olarak karşımıza çıkar. 1265 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Queer, feminizm çalışmalarında değinilen, Ana Akım’ın kadınları bir kanon içine sokmaya çalışan ve onları sindirmeyi amaçlayan ideolojik tutumun içinde gelişir ve mücadelesini yine toplumsal cinsiyet normlarını yıkma gayesi üzerine kurar. Toplumsal cinsiyet nedir, nasıl ve yeniden üretilir, imkânları nelerdir sorusuna Butler: “Toplumsal cinsiyet normları içerisinde neyin idrak edilebilir bir biçimde insan olup neyin olmayacağına, neyin "gerçek" kabul edilip neyin edilmeyeceğini belirler, bedenlerin meşru ifade kazanabilecekleri ontolojik alanı oluştururlar.” (Butler, 2005) diye cevap verir.Queer’i bu denli ötekileştiren, heteronormatif toplumun öncü olduğu düşüncesi ve bu sistemin devamlılığının sağlanması gayesidir. Ayrıca cinsel yönelim, tercih ve kimlikleriyle hayattan başka türlü haz alanlara, başka türlü âşık olanlara henüz alışılmış bir bakış açışının kazandırılmamış olmasıdır. Açıkça toplumun Queer bireyi neden ötekileştirdiği sorusuna aile kurumunun önemi ve din faktörünün maddi gerçekliği şeklinde de cevap verilebilir.Günümüzde Tek tanrılı dinler olan Musevilik, Hıristiyanlık ve İslam’ın eşcinselliğe yaklaşımları görece bellidir ve toplumu bu sebeple etkilediği görülür. (Nil, 2013) Eşcinsellik ve din arasındaki bu tartışmaları Nurten Şahin şöyle açıklar: ”İnsanlar kadın ve erkek olarak beden yapısına uygun olan bir ruh yapısı ile birlikte dünyaya gelmektedir. Bu nedenle insanın doğuştan gelen özelliklerine müdahale, kişinin sadece kendisinin değil gelecek nesillerin de, yaratılan temiz fıtratının değişmesi ile sonuçlanır.” (Şahin, 2015, s. 514) İmparatorluklardan ulus-devletlerine kadar aile kurmak, ulusal varoluşun temel taşlarından biri olmuştur. Eşcinsel birey bu noktada aile ve akrabalık bağlarına zarar veren, toplumun temel yapı taşlarını zedeleyen bir konumda addedilir. Dünya küreselleşip, çok kültürlü bir yapıya sahip olsa bile Heteronormative kimlikler, ataerkil toplum normları, homoseksüel ilişkiye olan bakış açışı ne yazık ki çok az değişmiş hatta Queer birey için; hasta, sapkın, günahkâr, terörist ve gayri insanı gibi sıfatlar bile türemiştir. Çünkü din, insani duygulardan çok normal görünme ve davranma yani topluma uyumlu olma ve topluma uygunluğun sosyal yapıdaki karşılığını arar. Michael Warner 90’lı yılların başında “Heteronormativitenin bütün toplumsal kurum ve ideolojilere sirayet ettiğini, dolayısıyla heteronormatif cinsel düzene itiraz etmenin er ya da geç bizzat bu kurum ve ideolojilere itiraz etmek anlamına geleceğini” (Çakırlar & Delice, 2012, s. 17) söyleyerek durumun ehemmiyetinden söz eder. Tarihi kayıtlar göz önüne alındığında eşcinselin yeni bir olgu olmadığı kanısına varmak mümkündür. Örneğin M.Ö. 1400’lerdeki yasaların yazılı olduğu bir tablette Hititlilerde iki erkek arasında evliliğe izin verildiği görülür. (Nil, 2013, s. 7) Benzeri bir şekilde Hristiyanlığın ilk beş yüz yılı içerisinde de hoş karşılandığı fakat sonra ki yüzyıllarda yasaklandığı görülür. Eşcinsel ilişkiye yönelik açık ve şiddetli düşmanlık geleneği 12.yüzyılda başlar ve bugün hala sürmeye devam eder. (Şahin, 2015, s. 1266 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 511)1970 yılında Amerikan Psikiyatri Birliği, Hooker’in çalışmasına dayanarak cinsiyet yönelimleri için hastalık, psikolojik rahatsızlık, anormal davranış tanımını kaldırmıştır. (Şahin, 2015, s. 511) Neticesinde eşcinselliğin insan cinselliğinin olağan çeşitliliğinin bir görünümü olduğu bilimsel alanda kabul görmüştür. Türkiye’de ise queer teoriye ilişkin köklü bir araştırma henüz geliştirilememiştir.Queer’in tüm bu zorlu süreçler içerisinde istikrarlı ve kendinden emin tavrı nihayetinde medyanın da ilgisini çeker. Sinema, LGBTİ+ bireylerin hikâyesi için en güçlü silahlarından biri haline gelir. Tüm bu söylemler ve çatışmalar sonucunda bugün queer teorinin cinsel yönelimlere, kimliklerin merkezileşmesine, kimliği tek tipleştirip üreten, bunu onaylayan ve heteroseksist düzenin ötelediği eşcinselleri öne çıkarmakla kalmayan; din, dil, ırk, devlet, kültür şeklindeki sınıflandırmaların hepsini aynı çatı altında toplamayı amaçlayan şemsiye bir kavram olarak ele alındığını görürüz. QUEER SİNEMA? 1990’lı yılların başında ABD’de “Yeni Queer Sinema” akımı sözünü ettiğimiz gibi tamamen stratejik ve politik sebeplerle var olmaya başlar. Bir zamanlar eşcinselleri aşağılarken bu gün sinemada yarattığı imgelerle eşcinselin hikâyesine odaklanır. Eşcinselliğin konu edildiği ilk film The Gay Brothers diğer adıyla Dickson Deneysel Ses Filmi, (Gey Kardeşler, William Kennedy Dickson, 1895) filmidir. Filmde 17 saniye boyunca yalnızca keman eşliğinde vals yapan iki genç erkek görünür.Eşcinselliği konu eden bir diğer önemli film Diğerlerinden Farklı (Anders Als Die Anderen, Richard Oswald, 1919) filmidir. Film, seyirciler tarafından oldukça sarsıcı bulunur. Konusu sebebiyle itirazlara maruz kalmasına karşın Almanya’da gişe rekorları kırarak ve seks filmi olma özelliğiyle dönemin furyasını oldukça etkilemiştir. Oswald, eşcinsel algısına meydan okumuş olsa dahi film de eşcinsel karaktere iyi bir son yazmaz ve karakter finalde intihar eder. Ulusay: Birkaç temsil dışında, filmlerde eşcinsel karakterlerin çoğunun, öldürüldüğü ya da intihar ettiği veyahut başkalarına zarar veren kişiler olarak tasvir edildiğini söyler. (Ulusay, 2011) Queer Sinemanın köklü bir geçmişinin olmayışı Ana Akım sinemanın patriarkal düzene olan bağlılığıdır. Ana Akım Sinema, tercihlerini toplumsal faydalar üzerine kurar. Çünkü neyin nasıl ve kimin yararına gerçekleşeceğine dair izlediği yol sayesinde kitle kazanır. Sinema her ne kadar bir eğlence aracı, haz verici veyahut bir zaman etkinliği olsa da toplumun yansımasıdır ve sorumlu bir amaç edinir. Bu sebeple eşcinsel birey bu muhalif sinemanın kırmızıçizgisidir ve bu sebeple tarih boyunca öteki olarak atfedilir. Fakat Queer Sinema iyi bir izler kitle kazanınca bugün festivallerin gözdesi haline gelmiş aynı zamanda bağımsız sinema içerisinde büyük ses uyandıran bir türe dönüşmüştür. 1267 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 1940’lı ve 50’li yıllar sansürün etkisiyle eşcinsel bireylerin filmlerde gizli anlamlar altında yaratıldığı dönem olur. 50’lilerin sonunda filmlerde karşımıza sık sık homofobi çıkar. 60’lar da ise yetişkin konularının perdeye aktarılması ve buna bağlı olarak eşcinselinde ele alınmasına izin verilmesi eşcinsel karakterlerin olumsuz tasvir edilmesinin önüne geçemez. Buna en iyi örneği Pscyho (Sapık, Alfred Hitchcock 1960) filmini göstermek yanlış olmaz. Yüksek ihtimalle sinemada gördüğünüz bu tip eşcinseller patolojik rahatsızlığı olan, sapkın, sapık, gülünç ya da uzak durulması gereken temsillerdir. Psycho filminde bir Motel sahibi olan Norman Bates, annesinin kıyafetlerini giyen kişilik bozukluğuna sahip bir katildir. Kuzuların Sessizliğinde ise Buffalo Bill karakteri kendini kadın zanneden ve onların kıyafetlerini giyen bir seri katildir. Bu bağlamda modern toplumlara rağmen eşcinsel temsiller sinema için oldukça yeni ve alışılmışın dışındadır. Çünkü muhalif sinema toplumda ikincil konumda olan eşcinsel bireyin müdahale edilmesi gereken bir cinsel tercih olduğu kanısındadır. Eşcinsel birey aile, üreme, kültürel kodlara ve kadın ve erkek fıtratına ters düştüğü müddetçe ötekidir. Eşcinsel bireyi beyaz perdeye aktarmak yalnızca ötekinin bakış açısıyla mümkündür.“Ancak 1960’lar, aynı zamanda, eşcinselliğin bir insan hakları konusu olduğuna ilişkin farkındalığın da artmaya başladığı yıllardır.” (Ulusay, 2011, s. 5) “Durumun bu şekilde anlaşılmasında, şüphesiz, 1960’ların sonuna doğru ABD ve Avrupa ülkelerinde öğrencilerin, kadınların ve siyahların sürdürdükleri özgürlük, eşitlik ve demokrasi mücadelesinin büyük katkısı bulunmaktadır.” (Ulusay, 2011, s. 5) 28 Haziran 1969’da Amerikan’ın New York eyaletinde Stonewall Inn adında bir bara polis baskını gerçekleşir. Bu baskının gerçekleşmesinin hemen ardından eşcinsel harekâtları ve bir dizi direniş eylemleri başlar. Stonewall ayaklanması olarak bilinen bu olay eşcinsel mücadelesinin başlangıcı olarak bilinir.Türkiye de 1962 yılında Aydın Arakon’un yönettiği “Ver Elini İstanbul“ ilk Lezbiyen film örneği olarak karşımıza çıkar. Filmde Leyla Sayar ve Mualla Kavur’un öpüşmesi Sansür Kurumu tarafından yayınlanması uygun bulunsa da sonrasında kaldırılır. 1960’lı yıllar Türk Sinemasında birçok LGBT temalı filmin yayınlandığı dönem olur. Fakat çoğunluğu seks filmleri olarak adlandırılır.70’ler döneminin sineması eşcinsellerin hem olumsuz kalıplardan çıkarıldığı hem de hala geçmişte ki tiplemelerinin devam ettiği bir dönem olur. Bu dönemde queer sinemanın önemli isimlerinden biri olan ve ulus, ırk, sınıf, göçmenlik ve eşcinsellik gibi konuları tartışan Alman yönetmen Rainer Werner Fassbinder karşımıza çıkar. “Fassbinder, 40’ın üzerinde film yapmış ve eşcinsellikle ilgili ilk olarak Fox ve Arkadaşları’nı (Faustrecht der Freiheit, 1975) filminin çekmiştir.” (Ulusay, 2011, s. 6) Devamında Britanyalı yönetmen Derek Jarman, İspanyol yönetmen Pedro Almodovar queeri temsil eden birçok filme imza atmışlardır. Türk Sinemasında 70’ler transların gizlice gösterildikleri bir dönem olur. 50-80’li yıllar arasında lezbiyen aşk veya erotik sahneler açık bir şekilde sergilenmese de iyi bir izleyicinin sezebileceği kapalılıkta 1268 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal gösterilir.1980’ler queer‘in AIDS sorunuyla karşı karşıya olduğu önemli bir dönemdir. Homofobi toplumda öyle köklü bir hale gelir ki AIDS’in eşcinsel ilişkiden bulaştığına dair bir inanış başlar. İlk kez 1981 yılında ortaya çıkan bu hastalık milyonlarca insanın ölümüyle sonuçlanır. Queer Sinemanın gelişimindeki en sarsıcı faktör budur. Böylece 80’ler dönemin filmlerine de konu olur. Burada ölüme meydan okuyan pek çok queer filme rastlamak mümkündür. Örneğin, Zero Patience (Sıfır Sabır, John Greyson, 1993) adlı Kanada yapımı film, bu hastalığa yakalanan bir pilotun hikâyesini konu eder. Tüm bunlara rağmen 80’ler queer için hala tartışmalı bir konumdadır. Eşcinsel için kriz hala devam etmektedir. Türkiye de eşcinsel karakterler uzun bir süre lezbiyenler üzerinden işlenir. Erkek eşcinselliği içeren filmler lezbiyen filmlere oranla daha az ve geç çevrilir.90’lar Queer’in mücadelesinin daha görünür olduğu ve karşılığını aldığı yıllar olur. Her ne kadar önemli yapımlar da olumsuz temsiller yaratılmaya devam etse de öteki olduğu gerçeği sık sık seyirciye dikte edilir. Böylece izler kitle de farkındalık sağlanması amaçlanır. Örneğin Ve Orkestra Çalmaya Devam Ediyor (1993) filminde AIDS virüsünün ortaya çıktığı yılları ve bu hastalığın bir gey laneti olduğuna ilişkin bilim ve politika arasındaki tartışma konu edinir. Nihayetinde filmde verilmek istenen mesaj öteki olunma ihtimalinin kaçılmaz olabileceğidir. Böylece izler kitlenin yalnızca yargılayan değil, önyargılarını birer empatiye dönüştürmesi amaçlanır. Eşcinsel harekâtın bir başlangıcı olarak bilinen Stonewall Ayaklanması 1995 yapımı Stonewall adlı komedi-dram filmine uyarlanır. Amaç yine eşcinselin vermiş olduğu mücadeleyi sinema aracıyla dile getirmektir. 1991 ve 1992 yıllarında Sundance Film Festivali’nde gösterilen Paris Is Burning (Jennie Livingston), Poison (Todd Hayness), Swoon (Tom Kalin) gibi filmler ötekinin hikâyesini işlemesi sebebiyle dikkat çeker. AIDS’in etkisi, homofobinin politik bir mesele haline gelmesi artık yalnızca aktivistlerin değil sinemanın da bir sorunudur. Türkiye’de 90’larda Düş Gezginleri(1992), Dönersen Islık Çal (1992), Atıf Yılmaz’ın yönettiği Gece, Melek ve Bizim Çocuklar (1993) Kutlu Ataman, Lola and Bilidikid (1998) ve Atilla İlhan’ın yazdığı Sokaktaki Adam (1995) filmleri çekilir. Tüm bu yapımlar içinde queer birey açıkça gösterilmese de hissettirilir.“Yeni Queer Sinema” 1992 yılında Amerikalı akademisyen B.Ruby Rich’in Sight&Sound dergisinde yayınladığı bir makale sayesinde görünür olur ve pek çok akademisyen tarafından kullanılmaya başlar. Artık bu sinema bağımsız gey ve lezbiyen film ve videoları için bir prestijdir. Paul Verhoeven'in Temel İçgüdü (1992) ve Derek Jarman'ın Edward II (1991) filmleri New York'ta gösterime girmesinin üzerine Prestijli Yeni Yönetmenler/Yeni Filmler Festivali birkaç gün içinde dört yeni "queer" filmin gösterisini yapar. San Francisco Gay ve Lezbiyen Film Festivali on altı yıllık tarihindeki en başarılı yılını geçirir; katılım 1991'den bu yana iki katına çıkar. Fakat tüm bunlara rağmen filmler festivaller dışında dağıtım şansı bulamaz. “Bu dönemde, özellikle sağ kanat politikacıların queer filmlere yönelttiği baskıcı tutum da bir şekilde filmlerin 1269 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal duyulmasına katkı sağlıyordu. Böylece özellikle film festivalleri üzerinde yoğunlaşan ve hem türü hem de izleyicileri, dağıtımcıları ve mekânları kapsayan bir sektör meydana gelmişti.” (Candemir, 2016, s. 54)Bugün Queer kuramın sınırlı bir kavrayışa meydan okuduğunu söylemek yanlış olmaz. Kuram yalnızca cinsel kimlikleri değil bunu kategorize eden sınırlayan tüm kimliklere karşı çıkar. Dönemin önemli filmleri şöyleydi Mulholland Çıkmazı (2001) Blue is the Warmest Colour (Mavi En Sıcak Renktir, 2013), Pride (2014), Moonlight (2015), The Holding Man (2015). Carol (2015), Call Me By Your Name (Beni Adınla Çağır, 2017), Portrait of a Lady on Fire (Alev Almış Bir Kızın Portresi 2019) ve Your Name Egraved Herein (Adın Buraya Kazınmış, 2020) gibi olumlu temsillerin olduğu filmlerdir. Fakat tüm bu yapımlar aynı zamanda eşcinselin hali hazırda ötekileştirildiği dünyada acı çektiği ve mücadele ettiği melodram ve biyografik filmlerdir. Türkiye ‘de 2000 sonrasında İki Genç Kız (Kutluğ Ataman, 2005) Yaşamın Kıyısında (Fatih Akın, 2007), Zenne (Binay, Alper 2008) Güneşi Gördüm (Mahsun Kırmızıgül, 2009), Nar (Ümit Ünal, 2011) ve Şahane Misafir (Ferzan Özpetek, 2012) filmleri dışında çok fazla örnek yoktur. Bu filmlerde ise eşcinseller yine heteronormative dünyanın kurbanlarıdır. Ayrıca çoğu için Queer film örnekleri olduğunu söylemek güçtür. ÖTEKİLEŞTİRME Kavramsal bağlamda öteki, sözü edilenden ayrı, öbürü, bilinenden uzak gibi anlamların karşılığıdır. Bu sebeple insanın varlık gösterdiği tüm tarihsel süreçlerde pek çok farklı sebepten ötekiye rastlanır. Örneğin Siyahiler, Yahudiler, kadınlar, eşcinseller, çingeneler, göçmenler, mülteciler gibi. Kendilerini bir şekilde kategorize eden insanlar belli bir gruba ait hissetmekten güven duyarlar. Çünkü bu parçası olduğu grupla özdeşleşmek tatmin edicidir. Öteki olmak özellikle modern toplumlarda birer sorun olarak nitelendirilir. Öteki demek kendinden olmayanı, aşağı olanı tasnif eder ve sosyal dışlanma, dışarı da kalma, çoğunluk olamama hissi kişi de birer öteki algısı oluşturur. Bu bağlamda ötekiye olan ihtiyaç bireyin kendi kimliğini inşa etmesine katkıda bulunur. Kimlik “kim” sözcüğünden türeyen aidiyeti, aynı olmayı veyahut kim olduğuna, nereye ait olduğuna ilişkin olan soruların cevabıdır. Ayriyeten kimlik, bir toplumda insanlar veya gruplar arasında ki farklı olanı yaratan temel değişkenlerden biridir. Çünkü 'öteki'nin farkı olmadan kimliğin çok az anlamı vardır. Bu sebeple ötekiye olan ilgi ve motivasyonun yüzyıllarca vazgeçilebilecek bir yönelim olmadığı aksine bir takım grupların kendi kimlikleri için önemli olduğunu söylemek yanlış olmaz. Bu noktada öteki’den söz ederken temel problemin “ben” ve “biz” kutuplaşması olduğu görülür. Biz olan önceden formüle edilmiş konumlar, kişinin doğduğu toplumun ilkeleri, insanın inanç ve yargılarının belli bir grupla tutarlı olması gibi öteki olanın belirli olduğu gruptur. “Ben” ise biz’in yarattığı bu evrenin dışında kalan, farklı olan ve bilinmezliğiyle biz için tehdit oluşturan gruptur. 1270 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Biz olma duygusu zaman içinde kişinin bilinç dışı taraf olma motivasyonunu geliştirir. Bu sebeple “biz” olanın kendi anlayışlarının dışında kalan birey ve grupları ötekileştirerek, yok sayma, dışlama, yaşamsal haklarına müdahale etme, nefret söylemleri ve suçlarına uzanan istenmeyen tutum ve davranışları geliştirdiklerini ifade etmek mümkündür. Derrida; “Ancak ötekinin bizim kurallarımıza, yaşam tarzımıza, hatta dilimize, kültürümüze, siyasal sistemimize vb uyması koşuluyla konukseverlik gösteririz.” der. (Borradori, 2003, s. 160). Fakat yine Derrida’nın kendisi şöyle der: “Saf ve koşulsuz konukseverlik, konukseverliğin kendisi, ne beklenen ne de davet edilen, mutlak anlamda yabancı bir konuk olarak, yeni gelen olarak ulaşan herkese, tanımlanamaz ve öngörülemez olana, kısacası bütünüyle öteki olana kapıların açılmasıdır.” (Borradori, 2003, s. 160) Kimlik olgusu politik, ekonomik, etnik ve kültürel sebeplerle oluşmaya devam eder. Bir diğeri ise biyolojik sebeplerdir. Bununla birlikte ötekileştirme başladığında cinsel kimlik tartışmalarını görmezden gelmek mümkün değildir. 3.1 Cinsel Kimlik Cinsel kimlik, bireyin biyolojik olarak kendisinin kız ya da erkek cinsiyetinden hangisi olduğunu anlaması ve bununla özdeşleştiğini hissetmesidir. Bireyler doğduğu andan itibaren 2-3 yaşlarına kadar cinselliğin ne olduğuna ilişkin fikir geliştiremezler. 3 yaşından sonra çocuğun kendi cinsel kimliğine dair anlamlar aradığı ve keşfettiği yaşlar olur. Fakat cinsel yönelimin hangi yaşlarda başladığı bilinmez. (Özsungur, 2010) Cinsel yönelim, kişinin duyguları ve arzularıyla hangi cinsiyete ilgi duyduğu ile alakalıdır. Freud’un psiko-seksüel kuramında fallik dönem (3-6 yaş) ile birlikte bireyler cinsiyet farklılıklarının ve vücudundaki haz bölgelerini keşfeder. Latent/Gizil (6-12 yaş) ve Genital(12-18 yaş) dönemde ise libido etkilerinin görüldüğü ve bireyin cinselliğe dair ilgi ve motivasyonunun giderek arttığı görülür. (Celiloğlu, 2022) Tüm bu dönemler içerisinde bireyin doğru cinsel eğitim alması cinsel yönelimi için oldukça önemlidir. Bu eğitim neticesinde birey kendini bedenini tanır. Kendi cinsel kimliğine veyahut başkalarının cinsel kimliklerine dair davranış tutumlarını geliştirir. Fakat günümüz toplumunda cinselliğin ne olduğuna ilişkin konuşmak zordur. Toplumlar cinsellik üzerine konuşmayı genellikle ayıp olarak görür. Bir ebeveynin çocuğu ile bu konu hakkında konuşmaması ya da konuşulduğu takdir de suçluluk hissi uyandırması da beraberinde gelir. Fakat cinsellik, ilişki kurmanın dinamiklerinden biri olmaya devam ettiği müddetçe görünmez olması mümkün değildir.Toplumlar yalnızca iki cinsel kimlik üzerinden cinsiyetleri sınırlar. Bu sebeple kadın ve erkekten giyim, görünüş, davranış ve beden özelliklerinin dışavurumunu dair uygunluk bekler. Cinsel kimlikleri bu şekilde belirginleştirmek ve nesneleştirmek toplumun dinamiklerinden biridir. Bunun dışında ki çeşitli cinsel kimliklerden olan: gey, lezbiyen, biseksüel, transları ayrıştırmaya yönelir. Bu tarz farklı cinsel kimliklerin toplumdan 1271 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ayrışması ve ötekileştirilmesi yeni bir olgu değildir. Cinselliği üreme odaklı konumlandıran toplumlar görece kadın ve erkek arasındaki ilişki dışındaki birliktelikleri meşru kılmaz. Bireyden buna ilişkin birliktelikler kurmasını bekler. Bunun dışındaki ilişkileri doğal ve yahut normal kabul etmez. Farklı cinsel kimliklere ilişkin toplumun bu tutumu cinsel kimlik temelli nefret söylemini ve homofobiyi beraberinde getirir. 3.2 Homofobik “Öteki” “Fobi” sözcüğü bugün belirli nesneler ya da durumlar karşısında duyulan, kaygı, endişe veyahut tehdit oluşturmayan şeylere karşı abartı boyutunda ki korkuya verilen addır. “Homo” eş, benzer, denk anlamlarında kullanılagelen bir önek olduğu için, ne ile ilgili bir korkunun ifadesi olduğunu anlamak kolay değildir.” (Başar, Homofobi, 2013) “Homofobi” 1960’larda ilk kullanıldığında eşcinsellerin (homoseksüellerin) yakınında, çevresinde bulunmayla ilgili korkuyu ifade etmek için, yine bu korkuyu duyan kişiler tarafından ortaya atılmıştır.” (Başar, Homofobi, 2013, s. 60) Fakat bugün kavramın eşcinsel bireyden korkmaktan çok onu aşağıya çeken, ötekileştiren hatta tiksinme, nefret gibi eylemleri doğuran bir kavrama tekabül ettiğini söylemek yanlış olmaz. İnsanlık tarihi boyunca bireyler kendi cinsiyetinden insanlara karşı bir yakınlık duymuş veyahut duygular beslemiştir. Fakat çoğunluğun heteroseksüel olduğu bu toplumda bu yakınlık kabul görülmemiştir. 17 Mayıs 1990 yılında eşcinsellik bilim içerisinde normal kabul edilmesine karşın politika ve din içerisinde tartışmalara sebebiyet vermeye devam etmiştir. Çünkü toplum bugün hala kendi değerler sistemin dışına çıkan bu bireyleri kabul etmeme konusunda ısrarcıdır. Bu nedenle eşcinsellik heteronormative hayatın günlük pratiklerinden biri olamamış aksine toplumun homofobik söylemlerine maruz kalmıştır.Heteroseksüel düşünce dünyasında eşcinselliğin sağlıksız ve insan doğasına aykırı olduğu savının öne sürülmesi özellikle aile gibi önemli bir kurumun korunmasına yönelik bir önlemdir. Siyasi otorite bugün ahlaki değerleri koruma ideolojisiyle oluşturduğu yasalarla, otoritesini de kullanarak eşcinseli sistem içerisinde bastırır. Nitekim üremeye yönelik olmayan bu cinsel yönelimin toplumun düzenini bozacağına dair bir gerekçe sunulur. Tek tipleştirme, çoğunluk olamama, cinselliği kurallara bağlama, çekirdek aile kurma, tüm bunlar toplumun alışmış olduğu düzendir. Bu sebeple homofobik tutumlar, azınlık olanı dışlama ve ötekileştirme misyonuna bireye doğar doğmaz bahşeder. Bugün tek tanrılı dinlere baktığımızda eşcinsel bireyin günahkâr olduğu vurgulanır. Çünkü yaratana karşı kadın ve erkek fıtratının dışına çıkan bu cinsel tercihlerin birer başkaldırış, düzeni bozan bir olgu olduğu görüşü hâkimdir. Bazı Asya ve Avrupa ülkeleri eşcinselliği uluslararası haklara sahip, normal görülen ve evliliklerinin yasallaştığı konumlara kadar yükseltmiştir. Fakat pek çok ülke bu haklar bir yana eşcinselliği idamla 1272 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal cezalandırmaya, günahkâr ilan etmeye devam etmiştir. Küreselleşmeyle birlikte kültürel değerlerin yavaş yavaş aşınmaya başladığı bu yüzyılda bile eşcinsellik henüz meşru değildir. FİLMİN ÇÖZÜMLEMESİ Bu çalışma kapsamında, Patrick Huang Hui-Liu’nin Tayvan yapımı “Your Name Engraved Herein” filmi, ötekileştirme olgusuyla bağlantılı olarak ve nitel içerik analizi yöntemiyle ele alınmaktadır. İçerik analizi yöntemi sosyal gerçekliğin içinde gizli kalanın keşfedilmesi ve yeniden yorumlanmasını içeren bir tekniktir. Araştırma da amaç incelenen materyalde ötekileştirmeye dair sosyal yapıya ait çıkarımlarda bulunmaktır. İncelenen filmde göstergeler ve metinsel anlatımların ötekileştirme kavramıyla bağlantılı olan eşcinsel imgesini nasıl işlendiğine odaklanılmıştır. Tematik olarak filmdeki ötekiler, ötekileştirme, eşcinsellik, homofobi, toplum gibi kavramlar incelenip metinsel bağlamda açıklanmıştır. 4.1.Filmin Künyesi ve Konusu: Yönetmen: Patrick Kuang Hui-Liu Yapımcı: Yu Ning Chu, Danielle Yen, Liu Zhi-Syuan Senarist: Yu Ning Chu, Jie Zhan, Alcatel Wu Müzik: Chris Hou, Jason Huang Türü: Tarih, Dram,Romantik Yapım Yılı: 2020 Gösterim Süresi: 114 Dakika Konusu: Film, 14 Temmuz 1987 yılında sıkı rejimin kaldırıldığı fakat etkisinin hala sürdüğü 1988 yılında, Katolik lisesinde okuyan iki genç erkeğin aşkını anlatır. Yönetmenin ilk uzun metrajlı ve Tayvan’ın ilk LGBT temalı filmi olma özelliğine de sahiptir. Ayriyeten Tayvan, Asya’nın ilk LGBT evliliğini resmileştiren ve Asya tarihinin 100 milyon gişesiyle en yüksek hasılatını yapan ülkedir. Tayvan'da arka arkaya diktatörlüğün olduğu insanların özgürlüklerinin kısıtlandığı, hükümet karşıtı protestoların başladığı ve propaganda medyasının ürettiği her şeyin engellendiği ve hükümetin muhalefeti bastırmaya başladığı bir dönem söz konusudur. Bu dönem Beyaz Terör Katliam’ının başlangıcı olan 1947 yılında birçok Tayvanlının ölmesiyle sonuçlanan, halkın ayaklanmasıyla bağımsızlık hareketini bastırabilmek için hükümetin, 1949-1987 yıllarında işleyen sıkıyönetimi ilan ettiği dönemdir. Fakat 1987 yılında sıkıyönetim kaldırılması siyasal ve devrim sonrası karışıklıkların ortaya çıkmasına sebep olur. Yönetmen tam da bu tarihi Tayvan atmosferinde Erkek Katolik Lisesinde olan Jia-Han (Edward Chen) ve Wang-Po Te (Birdy) (Jing-Hua Tseng) aşkını işlemeye başlar. Başkarakterlerden biri olan Chang Jia-Han Katolik bir aile ve despot bir babayla yetiştirilen bir gençtir. Hayali müzisyen 1273 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal olmaktır. Abisinin başarısının gölgesinde “kaybedenler için olan” sosyal bilgiler bölümünü seçtiği için evde küçük düşürülür. Wang Po-te (Birdy) karakterimiz askeri geçmişi olan bir babanın 4 kızından tek erkek çocuktur. Ayriyeten Birdy’nin diyaloglarından da anlaşılacağı üzere babası tarafından sıklıkla hor görülür. Homofobinin kol gezdiği, ötekinin sosyal yapının her yerinde yaratıldığı bu çağda eşcinsel olmak zor bir seçimdir. Hikâyede Peder Oliver (Fabio Grangeon) üçüncü bir ana karakter olarak karşımıza çıkar. Eşcinsel kimliğini reddeden, kendini Tanrı’ya adayan ve erkek lisesinde öğrencilere birçok derste liderlik eden bir temsildir. 4.2. “Ötekileştirme” Üzerine Filmin İçerik Analizi Filmde neredeyse birçok sahne de bize ötekinin kim olduğu söylenir. Açılış sekansında Peder ve JiaHan’ın arasındaki bir konuşma da Peder, Jia-Han’ın yaralı suratına bakar ve –bir kız yüzünden kavga ettiğini düşünerek- “Kız hangi sınıfta?” diye sorar. Daha ilk sahneyle birlikte eşcinsel bireyin ne kadar görünür –öteki- olduğu tartışması başlar. Filmde bahis edildiği gibi eşcinselliğin cinsiyet rolleri arasında normal sayılması henüz mümkün değildir. Bu sebeple eşcinsel olmak toplumun alışık olmadığı ve müstehcen gördüğü bir anormalliktir. Haneke; "İster cinsellik, ister şiddetle ya da başka bir tabuyla alakalı olsun, normu bozan her şey müstehcendir. “ der (Savaş, 2019, s. 26) Böylece müstehcen demek, toplum tarafından dayatılan, belletilen, öğretilen normların dışında kalan her şey demektir. Toplumun %90’ının heteroseksüel olduğu düşünüldüğünde azınlıkta olan eşcinsellerin öteki olması bu noktada kaçınılmazdır.İlk sekanslarda heteroseksüel olan Horn karakterinin arkadaşlarıyla birlikte gey olan Xie Zhen’ın zorbalık yaptığı görülür. Şiddetin alenen gösterildiği bu sahnede homofobik söylemler karakterlerin ağzından dökülür. Horn, elindeki çakmakla Xie Zhen’ın cinsel organını yakmak ister ve ondan uzak durulması gerektiğini, hastalıklı olduğunu, onlara bulaştırabileceğini söyler. Bu sahne, AIDS’in 1980’lerde yarattığı etkiye bir atıftır ve eşcinselin ötekileştirilmesinde gerekçelerinden biri olarak karşımıza çıkar. Horn’un ”Onu direğe geçirelim” cümlesi ise Katolik inancındaki çarmıha germe düşüncesiyle özdeşleşen eşcinselin günahkâr olduğu vurgusudur. Horn’un öğrenilmiş zorbalığı ile birlikte heteronormative dünya da eşcinselin ötekileştirilmesinin adeta bir norma dönüştüğünü söylemek yanlış olmaz. Anlaşıldığı üzere eşcinsellik hem kadın ve erkek fıtratına, hem dini olgular için uygunsuz ve öteki olandır. Heteroseksüel kimliklerin homoseksüel kimliklere karşı tutunduğu bu tavır homofobinin sürdürülmesine de katkı sağlamıştır. Jia-Han’ın şahit olduğu bu tavırlar şüphe ve korkuyu beraberinden getirir ve nihayetinde karakterde kimlik kaygısı oluşmaya başlar.İlerleyen sekanslarda öteki olmanın daha da zorlaştığı anlarda Jia-Han’ın kimlik kavgası yerini aşka bırakır. Artık eşcinsel olmak Jia-Han için öteki olmaktan daha kolaydır. Birdy ise güvenli alandan çıkmama konusunda ısrarcıdır. Jia-Han’ı koruduğunu düşünerek bir kızla ilgilenmeye başlar. Toplumun dayattığı yaşamı 1274 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal tercih ederek 33 yıllık bir pişmanlığın içine sürükleneceğinden habersizdir. Dahası eşcinsel kimliğini reddeden, böyle davranarak düzenin parçası olmayı sevgiden daha cesurca gören bir karaktere dönüşür. Böylece yönetmen, toplumun genç bir çocuğu “öteki terörü” altında gerçeği yaşamaktan nasıl alıkoyduğunu gözler önüne sermiştir.Bir video stüdyosunda ikili, Birdy filmini izlerler. Jia-han Birdy’i öpmek için eğildiğinde oda servisi onları camdan gözlemler. Eşcinselin sık sık gözlemlenmesi ve bunun suç olduğuna ilişkin argümanların sıklıkla söylenmesi adeta toplumun eşcinseller üzerindeki tahakkümünü gözler önüne serer. Bu baskı her yapının içinde belirgindir. Kimi zaman bir arkadaş, aile, okul müdürü ve çoğunlukla dindir. Filmde izleyiciye ötekinin kim olduğu ve neden olduğuna ilişkin pek çok sahne verilir. Amaç eşcinsel ilişkiye dair farklı bir perspektiften alternatifler sunmaktır.Film ile birlikte eşcinselliğin niçin ötekileştirildiği sorusu şöyle cevap bulur. Muhalif toplumlar din, aile, kültür, ulusal değerler gibi toplumsal normları bozan her türlü eyleme karşıdır. Çünkü amaç var olanı korumak ve sürdürmektir. Normu bozduğu iddiasıyla bu noktada eşcinselin öteki olması da kaçınılmazdır. Üreme odaklı olmayan, yalnızca haz merkezli ilişkilerin meşru kılınması hiçbir toplumda kabul görülmemiştir. Özellikle Hristiyanlık, Yahudilik, Müslümanlık gibi tek tanrılı inançlar da eşcinsel olmak günahkâr olmaktır. Çünkü beden eğer böyle yaratılmış ise bedene yapılan tüm müdahale tanrıya karşı bir başkaldırıdır. Bu sebeple eşcinselin tanrıyla arasının açık olduğu inancı baskın görülmüştür. Fakat yönetmen, her sahnesinden dua eden, tanrıya inandığını ve onu sevdiğini söyleyen queer-tanrı ilişkisini daha da güçlendirip yeni bir bakış açısı yaratmaya çalışır. Zhen Xie ve Jia-Han’ın konuştuğu bir sekansta arka fonda güvercin sembollü bir cam vardır. “Güvercin Katolik inancında saflığı, barışı, yeniden doğuşu ve kutsal ruhu ifade eder.” (Alp, 2015, s. 202) “Ahit’te ki bu hikâyede güvercin Tanrı’nın insanlarla barış yaptığını ve yeni başlayacak hayatı haber veren bir görev üstlendiğini belirtmiştir.” (Alp, 2015, s. 202) Yönetmen bu kadraj da göstergelerle iki eşcinsel karakterin saflığını ve yeni bir başlangıç yapmak istediklerini vurgulamıştır. Toplumun eşcinseli ötekileştirme gayretine karşı yeni alternatifler sunmuştur.Din ile alakalı başka bir sekansta Jia-han ve Pederin sohbet etkileri bir mekânın kutsal tablolar ve tanrıyla örülü olduğu görülür. Yüzleri İsa’ya dönük olan karakterlerimizle Yönetmen queer-tanrı ilişkisini göstergelerle derinleştirerek burada eşcinselin günahkâr olmadığını, inançla yüzünü Tanrı’ya dönebileceğini yeniden hatırlatır. Bunu filmin pek çok sahnesinde yapar. Yapar ki seyirci alenen eşcinsellikle ilgili olan tüm kalıplarına alternatif cevaplar bulabilmiş olsun. Peder ve Jia-Han’ın arasındaki diyaloglarda da bunu vurgulamaya devam eder. Jia-Han; “Tanrı: İstersen elde edersin. Arayan bulur. Kapılar, ona çalana açılır. dedi. Kapıyı son gücümle çalıyorum. Neden duymuyor? “ diye karaktere soru sordurarak seyircinin kafasındaki soruları da cevaplar. Yönetmen, eşcinselin öteki olma sorununa her perspektiften bakarak çözüme ulaştırmayı amaçlar. 1275 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Tarih boyunca eşcinsel ilişkinin sorun olduğu diğer bir yer aile kurumudur. Ataerkil sistem de ebeveynlerin erkek çocuklardan bekledikleri, iyi, ahlaklı, gerçek bir mesleği olan ve evlenip çocuk sahibi olmalarıdır. Kadın ve erkek birlikteliğinin aile kavramı için ideal olduğu görüşü bu bağlamda kabul edilir. Buna değinmek isteyecek olmalı ki yönetmen “Aile varsa çocuk olmalıdır.”, “Normal olan heteroseksüel ilişkidir” gibi söylemlerle konuyu gün yüzüne çıkarır. Böylece karşı bir söylem yaratarak da üreme üzerine yapılan bir konuşma da dünya nüfusunun yeterince arttığını, büyüyünce çocuk yapmak istemediklerini iki karakterimize söyletir. Başka bir sahne de Jia-Han’ın babasıyla tartışması üzerine annesiyle yaptığı konuşma da eşcinselin aile kavramına olan bakışının altını çizer. Jia-Han annesine babasıyla neden evlendiğini sorduğunda aşk için cevabını alamaz ve böylece neden üremek amaçlı birlikte olduklarını anlayamadığını söyler. Olumlu eşcinsel temsili mümkün müdür sorusunu sorduğumuzda karşımıza üç ana karakterimiz çıkar. Jia-Han yalnızca aşkının karşılığını almak isteyen, eşcinsel olduğunu kabul etse dahi sık sık tanrıya dua eden bir gençtir. Wang-Po-Te karakteri asi, haylaz ve umursamaz görünse de, eğlenceli, düşünceli ve cesurdur. Peder Oliver saygılı bir din adamı ve yol göstericidir. Finalde onunda eşcinsel olduğu görülür. Yönetmen böyle olumlu ve ahlaklı eşcinsel temsiller yaratarak seyircinin öteki anlayışını sorgular ve soyut bir yüzleşme gerçekleştirir. Olumlu eşcinsel temsiller mümkün müdür sorusuna ise iki genç karakterimizin, dönemin Devlet Başkan’ının ölümü için çıktıkları gezide “Evlilik insan hakkıdır. Eşcinsellik hastalık değildir.” tabelası taşıyan bir erkek aktivisti göstererek cevaplar. Aktivist, 1986’dan beri ulusal televizyon yayınlarında Tayvan’da ilk eşcinsel haklarını savunan Chi Chia-Wei‘nin bir tasviridir. Yönetmen böyle önemli ve gerçek bir karakteri es geçmeyerek tarihe yine saygı duruşunda bulunur ve film boyunca yalnızca queer bireyin öteki sorununu değil güçlü yanlarını da gösterir. Sonuç olarak yönetmen, duyguların kasten soyutlaştırılmasının güç yanlarını göstererek gerçeğin eninde sonunda yaşanacağını somutlaştırır. Peder Oliver’in filmin sonunda aşığına geri dönmesi ise bunu kanıtlar niteliktedir. Karakterlerimiz 33 yıl birbirlerini göremedikleri bir ayrılıkla birlikte gerçeklerle yüzleşirler. Jia-han daha sonra Birdy'nin eski karısı ve çocuklarının annesi olan Ban Wu ile temasa geçer. Boşandıklarını, Birdy’nin gerçekte kim olduğunu asla kabul etmeyerek hayatlarını mahvettiği gerçeğini anlatır. Ban Wu’nun eşcinselliğin kişinin doğasında olduğunu kabul etmesi ve Jia-Han ile Birdy’nin karşılaştıkları barın önünde iki erkeğin arkada öpüşmesi ülkenin 33 yıl sonra “eşcinsel/öteki” olana bakışının ne denli değiştiğini gösterir. Final de Birdy’nin Jia-han'ı gerçekten sevdiğini rahatça söylemesi ve bunu kabul edemediğini itiraf etmesi ise dönem farkını gözler önüne serer. Patrick Kuang Hui-Liu her sahnesinde eşcinseli olumlarken onun güç yanlarını göstermeyi 1276 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ihmal de etmez. Ötekileştirmenin yalnızca cinsellik sorunuyla sınırlı olmadığı heteronormative düzende her türlü yapının içerisinde ötekiler yaratıldığının altını çizer. SONUÇ Çalışmamızda kişilerin sosyal yaşamlarında neden ötekileştirmeye yöneldiği sorusu sorulmuştur. Ötekinin kim olduğuna, ötekileştirme pratiklerine, heteronormative dünyanın bu argümana neden ihtiyaç duyduğuna ilişkin görüşler analiz edilmiştir. Kimliğin inşasında ötekinin konumuna, queer kavramının ne olduğuna, öteki ve queer ilişkisine, queer’in tarih içerisindeki kavramsal değişimine, bir sinema akımı olarak karşımıza çıktığı sürece kadar olan kronolojik değişimine bakılmıştır. Queer kavramının uzun süre olumsuz anlamlarda kullanıldığı fakat sonrasında eşcinseller de dâhil olmak üzere öteki statüsüne düşürülmüş her kesim tarafından sahiplenildiği tespit edilmiştir. Queer Sinema da ilk temsillerden bu yana eşcinselliğin görece daha kabul edilebilir olduğuna fakat bugün henüz bir sorun olmaktan çıkamadığı kanaatine varılmıştır. Sinema içerisindeki yapımların heteroseksüel ilişkiye dair tutumlarının eşcinsel temsiler için çok yeni olduğu görüşü bu bağlamda kabul edilmiştir. İncelenen filmlerle de bu desteklenmiştir. Homofobik tutumların heteronormative dünyanın davranış kalıplarından biri olduğu kanaatine varılmış ayriyeten toplumun kimlik edinme içgüdüsüyle ötekileştirmeyi birer ihtiyaca dönüştürdüğü de gözlemlenmiştir. Cinsel kimliklerin sınırlılıklarına müsaade edilmediği, görece erkek ve kadının kendisinden bedenen bekleneni yapması istenildiği analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmanın amacına uygun olarak Tayvan yapımı Your Name Engraved Herein (Adın Buraya Kazınmış, 2020) filmi seçilmiş. Filmde eşcinselin maruz kaldığı ötekileştirme pratiklerine karşı alternatifler sunulmuş, öteki olmasına dair yeni bir bakış açısı kazandırılmaya çalışılmıştır. Yönetmen, seyircinin sevebileceği, empati kurabileceği hatta onlar için üzülebileceği olumlu eşcinsel temsiller yaratmış böylece eşcinsele olan ayrıştırıcı tutumlara karşı alternatifler sunmuştur. Sonuç olarak ötekiye dair tüm algıların değiştirilebileceğine, bugün eşcinsel bireyin cinsel yöneliminin hastalık ve ya haz merkezli olmadığına, kimlik edinme sürecindeki tüm sorunların çözümsüz olmayacağına ilişkin farklı bir bakış açısı kazandırılmaya çalışılmıştır. Eşcinselliğin meşrulaştırılması üzerinden argümanlar oluşturmaya çalışılmıştır. 1277 VI.

Özellikle iklim değişikliği ile dünyadaki kaynakların tükenir hale gelmesi gelecek için endişeleri kayda değer şekilde artırmıştır. Bugün özellikle kaynakların sürdürülebilirliği konusunda işletmelerin stratejik eylem planlarında sürdürülebilirlik olsa da, bu yaşam kaynaklarının yok olmasında da işletmelerin duruma sebebiyet vermesi düşündürücü bir durum olarak değerlendirilmektedir. Özellikle daha çok tüketimi teşvik eden bir mekanizmanın “tüketmeme”, “az tüketim”, “ikinci el tüketim” ya da “yavaş tüketim” kavramlarını referans alması sürdürülebilirlik konusundaki yaklaşımlarına güvenin ve bu konudaki samimiyetlerinin tartışılmasına sebep olmaktadır. Tüketimin devamlılığının iş yaşantısı için önemli olduğu dikkate alındığında ise “lüks ürünlerin” tüketiminin devamlılığının kolayda ya da hızlı tüketim ürünlerinde olduğu kadar önemli olduğu görülmektedir. Özellikle Pandemi döneminde “ikinci el lüks” uygulamalarının görülmesi ise bu alanda sürdürülebilir çalışmaların yapılmasında öncülük etmiştir denilebilir. Diğer taraftan tüketim edimlerinde “sürdürülebilir uygulamalar” açısından hassas olan ve ayrıca “lüks ürünlere” karşı zaafı olan kuşakların göreli olarak Y ve Z kuşağı olması dikkat çekmektedir. Demografik faktörlerden cinsiyet ve gelir durumu ise satın alma niyeti ve davranışı üzerinde etkili olan önemli iki faktördür. Bu kapsamda çalışmada Türkiye’deki Y ve Z kuşaklarını temsil eden tesadüfi olmayan örnekleme yöntemiyle seçilmiş 424 tüketiciye çevrimiçi anket yöntemi uygulanmış olup, çalışma sonucunda gelir durumuna göre tüketicilerin gelir durumu ile Marka Tercihleri Sürdürülebilirlik ve alt boyutları Ekonomik sürdürülebilirlik, Sosyal sürdürülebilirlik ve Çevresel sürdürülebilirlik, Satın alma Niyeti arasında anlamlı bir fark vardır. Ayrıca analiz sonucuna göre tüketicilerin cinsiyet durumu ile Marka Tercihleri Sürdürülebilirlik ve alt boyutları Ekonomik sürdürülebilirlik, Sosyal sürdürülebilirlik ve Çevresel sürdürülebilirlik, Satın alma Niyeti arasında da anlamlı bir fark olduğu görülmüştür. Anahtar Kelimeler: Lüks Marka, Sürdürülebilirlik, Y ve Z Kuşağı, Tüketici Davranışı Sürdürülebilir Yeni Lüks Markaların Y ve Z Kuşaklarında Tüketici Algıları ve Satın Alma Niyetleri Üzerindeki Etkisi tez çalışmasından üretilmiştir. 1 1281 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ANALYSIS OF THE IMPACT OF SUSTAINABLE NEW LUXURY BRANDS ON GENERATION Y AND Z’S PURCHASE INTENTIONS AND CONSUMER BEHAVIOR IN TERMS OF GENDER AND INCOME STATUS2 ABSTRACT The human-centered marketing approach of today has brought along the concept of "sustainability." Especially, concerns about the future have significantly increased with climate change and the depletion of resources worldwide. While sustainability is present in the strategic action plans of businesses, the role of businesses in the depletion of life resources is considered alarming. Particularly, when a mechanism that largely promotes consumption references concepts such as "non-consumption," "minimal consumption," "second-hand consumption," or "slow consumption," trust in sustainability approaches and the sincerity of businesses in this regard are questioned. Considering the importance of continuity of consumption for business life, it is seen that the continuity of consumption of "luxury products" is as crucial as in fastmoving consumer goods. Especially, the emergence of "second-hand luxury" practices during the pandemic period has led the way in sustainable practices in this field. On the other hand, the Y and Z generations, who are relatively sensitive to "sustainable practices" in consumption behaviors and also have a weakness for "luxury products," stand out. Gender and income status, among demographic factors, are two important factors that influence purchase intention and behavior. Within this scope, an online survey method was applied to 424 consumers selected through non-random sampling representing the Y and Z generations in Turkey. As a result of the study, it was found that there is a significant difference between consumers' income status and brand preferences, Sustainability, and its sub-dimensions Economic sustainability, Social sustainability, Environmental sustainability, and Purchase Intention. Furthermore, according to the analysis results, there is a significant difference between consumers' gender and brand preferences, Sustainability, and its sub-dimensions Economic sustainability, Social sustainability, Environmental sustainability, and Purchase Intention. Keywords: Luxury brand, Sustainability, Generation Y and Z, Consumer Behavior 2 The impact of Sustainable New Luxury Brands on Consumer Perceptions and Buying Intentions in the Y and Z Generations is based on a thesis. 1282 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Bu çalışmada, sürdürülebilir yeni lüks markaların, Y ve Z kuşaklarının tüketici algıları ve satın alma niyetlerinin, cinsiyet ve gelir durumu bakımından etkisi araştırılmıştır. Öncelikle kavramsal çerçevede lüks marka, sürdürülebilirlik, Y ve Z kuşakları ve tüketici davranışı ve lüks markaların sürdürülebilirliği açıklanmış, diğer bölümlerde markaların satışlarını arttıran sürdürülebilirlik felsefesini benimseyip ya da benimsemeyen lüks markaların tüketici davranışlarına etkileri cinsiyet ve gelir durumu çerçevesinde incelenmiştir. Araştırmanın bu konuda sınırlı olması önemini arttırmaktadır. LÜKS MARKA Lüks, genel olarak yüksek kaliteli, özel ve genellikle yüksek fiyat etiketine sahip olan ürünleri, deneyimleri veya hizmetleri ifade eder. Lüks mallar ve hizmetler, genellikle işçilik, tasarım, malzeme ve genel deneyim açısından standart karşıtlarına göre üstün olarak kabul edilir. Ayrıca, lüks ürünler genellikle sahiplerine özgünlük, nadirlik ve sahip oldukları statü ile karakterizedir.Lüks marka sınıflandırması ilk kez Alleres (1990) tarafından yapılmıştır. Alleres’e göre lüks marka sınıflandırması sosyo-ekonomik boyut perspektifinden, tüketicinin lüks markaya ulaşılabilirliği üzerinden açıklanmıştır. Şekil 1’de gösterilmektedir. Şekil 1: Lüks Marka Sınıflandırması Kaynak: Alleres, D. (1990). “Luxe - Strategies Marketing”, Economica, 1(1). Allers’in piramidine göre, piramidin en alt tabanını oluşturan ulaşılabilir lüks kısmı (Seviye 3) orta sınıfın ulaşabileceği lüks ürünleri içermektedir. Bu grubun satın aldığı lüks ürünler, statülerini arttırmaktadır. Bir sonraki seviye olan Orta Lüks (Seviye 2), profesyonel sosyoekonomik sınıf tarafından elde edilebilen ürünleri içermektedir. En üst seviye olan ulaşılamayan 1283 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal lüks ise, elit olarak nitelendirilen sosyo-ekonomik kesim tarafından alınabilen ürünleri içermektedir. Bu seviyedeki ürünler, çok yüksek fiyatlı olup, kullanıcısına çok farklı bir sosyal prestij sağlamaktadır. Bu piramide göre lüks ürüne ulaşılabilirliğin derecesi, sosyal sınıf seviyesini yansıtmaktadır. “Lüks kavramı, şüphesiz yıllar içinde değişmektedir. Ekonomik ve teknolojik sebepler nedeniyle lüks artık çok daha farklı bir kavramı temsil ediyor. Özellikle son 10 yılda lüks kavramı kişiselleştirme ve deneyimle birlikte anılıyor. Kalite, işçilik, tasarım ve dayanıklılık gibi konular zaten lüks markaların sunduğu değerler iken yeni lüks kavramı ile beraber, bambaşka parametreler ortaya çıktı. Artık insanlar satın alma kararı alırken aldıkları ürünün hikayesiyle, onlara yaşattığı deneyimle, kendileri için ne kadar kişiselleştirilmiş olduğu ile ilgileniyor. (https://www.platinonline.com/2017)Lüks markalar; prestij sahibi markaların en üstünde yer alan, içinde fiziksel ve psikolojik değerleri bulunduran markalardır. (Wiedmann, vd., 2007: 126). Lüks tüketim, bireyin fizyolojik ihtiyaçlarının ötesinde psikolojik ihtiyaçlarına hizmet eden bir araçtır. Her birey temel ihtiyaçlarını rahatlıkla karşılayabildiğinde, psikolojik ihtiyaçlarına yönelir.Twitchell ‘Gereksizi Gerensinmek: Lüksün Demokratikleşmesi’ adlı kitabında lüksü şu şekilde tanımlamıştır: ‘‘Lüks; eğer zor ele geçirilen ve sahip olamadıklarımızın karşılığı ise, lüks ihtiyaçlar bireye, topluma ve zamana göre değişiklik gösterebilmektedir. Örneğin, Akdeniz kıyılarında tatil yapmak ya da dizüstü bilgisayara sahip olmak birileri için lüks iken, birileri için zorunlu olabilecektir. Lüks olarak adlandırılan ihtiyaçlar tatmin edildiğinde, yeni bir lüks ihtiyacının ortaya çıkacağı çok aşikârdır. Renksiz televizyona sahip olunduğunda, renklisi lüks olarak kabul edilebilirken, renkliye sahip olunduğunda her türlü iletişim olanağı sağlayabilecek dijital ve etkileşimli televizyonlar şimdilik lüks sayılabilmektedir. Günümüzde ne satın aldığınız, ne yaptığınızdan daha önemli hale geldiği için, lüks bir amaç değildir; artık birçok kişi için lüks mutlu azınlık için olmanın ötesinde, bir gereksinimdir diyen Florida Üniversitesi öğretim üyesi Twitchell’e göre; belki de daha az lüks istemek yerine, tam tersini -çelişkili olsa da, herkes için lüksü- toplumsal amaca uygun bulabiliriz.’’ (Twitchell, J.B. 2004, Aktaran; Odabaşı, 2013:23-24). SÜRDÜRÜLEBİLİRLİK Sürdürülebilirlik, üretimin ve çeşitliliğin devamı sağlanırken insanlık yaşamının daimi kılınabilmesidir. En iyi anlamıyla kendi ihtiyaçlarımızı karşılarken gelecek kuşakların ihtiyaçlarından ödün vermeden karşılayabilmektir. Bir kavramın ya da şeyin sürdürülebilir olması o şeyin şuan ki durumunu devam ettirebiliyor olması gerekir. Aynı zamanda kendini yenileyebiliyor olması gerekmektedir. Buradan yola çıkarak bu kavram; gelecek kuşaklara 1284 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ekonomik, ekolojik ve aynı zamanda sosyal koşulları devam ettirilebilen bir dünya bırakmak için kullanılır. (https://www.iienstitu.com/, 2019) Sürdürülebilir kalkınmanın ekonomik, çevresel ve sosyal boyut olmak üzere üç boyutundan söz edilmektedir. İdeal ve sürdürülebilir bir ekonomi, en az miktarda kaynak kullanımı ve çevresel zarar ile en yüksek miktarda genel refahı sağlayan ekonomidir. Ekonomik açıdan, gerçekten sürdürülebilir olmak için, doğal kaynaklara yönelik genel talep, doğanın yenilenebilir kaynak arzından daha az olmalıdır (https://econation.co.nz/, 2020). Çevresel sürdürülebilirlik, sürdürülebilir kalkınmanın ayrılmaz bir parçasıdır. Çevreye bağımlılıkları nedeniyle çalışanlar, müşteriler, hissedarlar ve toplum ile birlikte işletmeler için önemli bir paydaştır. Çevresel sürdürülebilirlik, insanların ve doğanın üretken bir uyum içinde var olabileceği ve gelecek kuşakların sosyal, ekonomik ve çevresel ihtiyaçlarının karşılanmasına izin veren koşulları yaratmak ve sürdürmek olarak tanımlanabilir (U.S Department of Energy, 2020). Eğitim, sağlık, mutluluk, güvenli bir yaşam, yaşam kalitesi vb. alanlarda toplumsal koşulların sürdürülebilirliği üzerine odaklanır. İnsanlar arasındaki ilişkilerin zenginleştirilmesinin yanında bireysel ve grupsal hedeflere ulaşılmasını sağlar. Ekonomik ve ekolojik değişimlerin sosyal koşullara yaratacağı etkiler tarafından etkilenebilir. (https://.iienstitu.com, 2019) Y KUŞAĞI X kuşağından hemen sonra gelen Y kuşağı 1980 ile 1989 yılları arasında doğan nesli kapsamaktadır. Mevcut iş gücüne giren son nüfusun teşkil ettiği gruptur. Bireyciliğin yüksek seyrettiği, esnek ve küreselleşmeyle değişmeye başlayan dünyanın çocukları biçiminde tanımlanan bu kuşak muhtemelen yakın tarihin en eğitimli, en çok iletişim gücüne sahip ve kendine güvenen kuşağını oluşturmaktadır. İş ortamında yer aldıkları gruplar içerisinde üretken ve kararlı bir örgüt kültürünün olmasını isterler ve bu konuda oldukça hassastırlar. İyimserlerdir ve çalışma ortamının eğlenceli olmasını isterler. Tıpkı X kuşağında olduğu gibi, yöneticileri tarafından takdir edilmek onlar için çok önemlidir (Aytaş vd., 2017: 36-37). Cep telefonları, kişisel bilgisayarlar ve internet doğduklarından itibaren hayatlarında olduğundan ve bu dijital aletlerle büyüdükleri için teknoloji ve dijitallik bu kuşak için birçok şeyin simgesi haline gelmiştir. İnternet sayesinde küresel bir köye dönüşen dünyada Y Kuşağı, işletmelerin bilişim teknolojilerini kullanarak yaşam biçimine kadar birçok alanı kontrol edebildiği veya etkileyebildiği bir çevrede yetişti ve halen de bu çevrede yaşamlarını sürdürmektedirler. Bu nedenle de X kuşağı ile karşılaştırıldığında teknolojik açıdan bir adım öndedirler (Mengi, 2016) 1285 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Pazarlama ve tüketici davranışları açısından ele alındığında Y Kuşağı, değişen çevre şartlarına kolay uyum sağlayabilen, dinamik bir pazarlama çevresinde hayatını sürdürmekte zorluk yaşamayan bir kuşaktır. Bu nedenle değişime dair sürekli bir beklenti içinde olan bir tüketim anlayışı sürdürmektedirler. Bu kuşağın bireyleri kullandıkları ürünlerin yeni versiyonlarının ya da uygulamalarının piyasaya çıkmasını bekler ve bunların gelişimini yakından takip etmektedirler. Dünyanın önde gelen stratejistlerinden biri olarak tanınan Michael McQueen, Y Kuşağı bireylerinin iddia edildiği gibi savurgan davranışlar sergilemediğini, bu kuşağın “hayattan zevk alma” anlayışı ile hareket ederek bunu tüketime yansıttığını ve bu açıdan bakıldığında da oldukça bilinçli tüketici özelliği gösterdiklerini belirtmektedir. (Yazıcı,2019. s88)……………………………. Z KUŞAĞI Z kuşağı dünyanın yeni kuşaklarından olan en son kuşaktır. Bu kuşağın mensuplarını 2000 yılı ve sonrasında doğanlar oluşturmaktadır. Z kuşağına farklı isimler verilmektedir. Bunlardan bazıları; Kristal çocuklar, I Kuşağı, Gelecek Kuşağı, iGen, Daima çevrimiçi, çocuklarının yanı sıra, bireysellik yanlısı olduklarından dolayı Strauss ve Howe ismi de verilmektedir (Çetin Aydın ve Başol, 2014, s. 6).Kristal kuşak olarak adlandırılan Z Kuşağı mensupları; teknoloji ile doğup büyüyen, bilgiye çok çabuk ulaşan, hırslı ve maddeci olarak değerlendirilmektedir. Ayrıca bu kitlenin daha dikkatsiz, hız tutkunu, bağımsız, özgüveni yüksek, yalnız, sabırsız, tatminsiz, güven arayan, zevkine düşkün, internette bol vakit geçiren, geleneklere bağlı olmayan ve içe dönük gibi çeşitli özellikler barındırdığı ifade edilmektedir. Bu özelliklerin diğer kuşaklardan önemli oranda ayrıştığı bilinmektedir. Bu kuşağın tüketim eğilimleri de diğer kuşaklarla önemli farklılıklar içermektedir. Bu kitle içerisinde kalite arayan, yenilik ve değişimden zevk alan, farklı kültürleri araştıran, plansız ve anlık satın alan, marka bağlılığı ve sadakati düşük, hobileri olan ve bu hobilerden kazanç elde etmek isteyen, çok hızlı tüketen, şekil ve sembollere bağlı, rol model arayan, interneti yoğun kullanan, araştıran ve karşılaştıran gibi çok sayıda tüketim eğilimi bulunmaktadır. (Beyaz,R. s;25) TÜKETİCİ DAVRANIŞI Tüketiciyi ve tüketicinin davranışlarını anlamak, pazarlama stratejilerinin geliştirilmesindeki en önemli safhadır, çünkü üretilen mal ve hizmetlerin, faaliyet gösterilen pazarda, kimler tarafından, ne şekilde, ne miktarda ve nasıl satın alınacağının tahminini yapmadan, stratejileri ve o stratejilere uygun planları tasarlamak mümkün olmayabilir. Amerikan Pazarlama Birliği‟nin (AMA, American Marketing Association), tanımlamasına göre, Tüketici Davranışları, ürün ve hizmetlerin yer aldığı pazardaki tüketici ve karar veren kullanıcıların 1286 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal davranışlarını inceleyen, anlamaya ve tanımlamaya çalışan disiplinler arası bir bilimsel çalışmadır. Tüketici davranışları üzerine çalışan araştırmacılar satın alma davranışları üzerinden ilerleyerek konuyla ilgili tanımlamaları oluşturmaya çalışmışlardır. Kotler (1989), tüketicinin satın alma sürecini etkileyen faktörleri kültürel, sosyal, kişisel ve psikolojik olarak sıralayarak bir model oluşturmuştur; Tablo 1.1: Tüketici davranışını etkileyen faktörler Kültürel Sosyal Kişisel Yaş Psikolojik ve Yaşam Kültür Referans Grupları Dönemi Güdüleme Alt Kültür Aile Meslek Algılama Sosyal Sınıf Rol ve Statüler Ekonomik Özellikler Öğrenme Yaşam Tarzı İnanç ve Tutumlar Kişilik Kaynak: Kotler, P. , Armstrong, G. (1989) Principles of Marketing. 4th Ed. Englewood Cliffs: Prentice Hall International, s.118.Y Kuşağı tüketimle anılan, asıl kimliğini kendi isteğiyle tüketici kimliğine dönüştüren ve aynı zamanda tüketim toplumunu da şekillendiren bir kuşaktır. İnternetin de büyük etkisiyle alışveriş tutkusuna sahip, karar verieken özgür davranan, tüketimi bir eğlence aracı olarak gören Y Kuşağı, hem kendisine hem de topluma yabancılaşan bir tüketim modeli oluşturmuştur.Z Kuşağı’na baktığımızda ise kendi kredi kartı olan çok az bir şanslı kesim dışında bu kuşak henüz tek başına tüketim yapan bir kuşak değildir. Tüketim davranışlarını belirleyen faktörlerden en önemlisi ailelerin kararı olduğu için şirketler ve aileler bu kuşağı çok daha fazla önemsemektedir. Z Kuşağı diğer kuşaklardan farklı olarak internetsiz dönemi bilmeyen ve bu nedenle bu konuda uzman olarak yetişen bir kuşaktır. Bu kuşak kendine has, kişiselleşmiş ve imaja öncelik veren bir tüketim eğilimi göstermekte ve tam bir tüketici olarak tanımlanabilecek bir profil çizmektedir. Diğer kuşaklarla kıyaslandığında doğdukları çağın da etkisiyle eğitim açısından daha donanımlı ve ekonomik açıdan da daha rahat büyüyen bir kuşaktır. Bu kuşak talep ettikleri ürün ve hizmetlere anında ulaşmak, anında tüketmek ve daha sonra yeni tüketim deneyimlerine sahip olmayı tercih etmektedirler. (Yazıcı,2019.s 99) 1287 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ARAŞTIRMA VE BULGULAR Araştırmanın Adı Sürdürülebilir yeni lüks markaların Y ve Z kuşaklarının satın alma niyetleri ve tüketici davranışları üzerine etkisinin cinsiyet ve gelir durumu açısından analizi Araştırmanın Önemi Araştırmanın ana kütlesini tüketiciler oluşturmaktadır. Ana kütlenin tamamına ulaşmak mümkün olmadığından örnekleme yoluna gidilmiş, Türkiye’de yaşayan 424 tüketicilerden veri anket yöntemi ile toplanmıştır. Araştırmanın zaman ve bütçe kısıtından dolayı, tesadüfi olmayan örnekleme yöntemlerinden kolayda örnekleme yönteminin kullanılması uygun görülmüştür. Kolayda örnekleme yöntemi, kısıtlar nedeniyle araştırmaya katılacak kişilerin ulaşılabilirliğine göre tercih edilir. Ayrıca, araştırmacılar tarafından sıklıkla kullanılan bu yöntem ile, tesadüfi yöntemlere göre daha iyi sonuçlar alınması olasıdır (Yükselen, 2008) Araştırmanın Örneklemi ve Yöntemi Bu araştırma ilişkisel tarama modelinde desenlenmiştir. İlişkisel model, bir ya da birden fazla değişken arasında ilişkinin belirlendiği modeldir (Fraenkel ve Wallen, 2005). Bu araştırma özelinde, tüketicilerin sürdürülebilirliklerinin(sürdürülebilirlik algılarının) marka tercihleri ve satın alma niyetlerine olan etkisi incelenmiştir.Veriler anket yöntemi kullanılarak toplanmış ve bu formun giriş bölümünde katılımcılara kişisel verilerinin gizlilik prensibine göre değerlendirileceği ifade edilerek sadece akademik bir araştırmada kullanılacağı belirtilmiştir. Katılımcılar tarafından cevaplanan anket dört bölümden oluşmaktadır. Birinci bölümde tüketicilerin kişisel özelliklerine ilişkin cinsiyet, yaş ve gelir durumu ile ilgili üç soruya verdikleri cevaplara yer verilmiştir.İkinci bölümde ise Kim ve diğerleri (2015) tarafından geliştirilen ölçeğe yer verilmiştir. Ölçek ekonomik sürdürülebilirlik, sosyal sürdürülebilirlik ve çevresel sürdürülebilirlik olmak üzere toplam 3 boyutu ölçmektedir. Ölçek, 5’li Likert ölçeğinde (5: kesinlikle katılıyorum, 1: kesinlikle katılmıyorum) üzenlenmiş toplam 14 ifade içermektedir. Ölçekte ekonomik sürdürülebilirlik boyutu altında 3 ifade yer almaktadır (Örnek ifade: “Marka mali açıdan hesap verebilir (şeffaf politikaları olan) bir markadır.”). Ölçekte yer alan sosyal sürdürülebilirlik boyutu toplam 6 ifadeden oluşurken (örnek ifadeler: “Marka, toplumsal katkı sağlayan bir markadır.”; “Marka, insan haklarını dikkate almaktadır.”); çevresel sürdürülebilirlik boyutu ise toplam 5 ifade içermektedir (örnek ifadeler: “Marka, çevre dostu ürünler üretmektedir.”; “Marka, çevre için yatırımda bulunmaktadır.”). Ölçekten alınan yüksek puan katılımcının ilgili boyutta olumlu bir değerlendirme yaptığını, düşük puan ise tam tersi bir 1288 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal durumu göstermektedir.Anket formunun üçüncü bölümünde tüketicilerin marka tercihlerini değerlendirmek amacıyla Sirgy ve diğerleri (1991) tarafından geliştirilen Davies, Veloutsou ve Costa (2006) tarafından uyarlanan Marka Tercihi ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Ölçek, 5’li Likert ölçeğinde (5: kesinlikle katılıyorum, 1: kesinlikle katılmıyorum) düzenlenmiş toplam 3 ifade içermektedir ). Dördüncü bölümde ise Satın alma niyetini değerlendirmek amacıyla Satınalma Niyeti ölçeği ise Wongpitch ve diğerlerinin 2016 yılında yapmış oldukları çalışmadan alınan Satınalma Niyeti ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Ölçek, 5’li Likert ölçeğinde (5: kesinlikle katılıyorum, 1: kesinlikle katılmıyorum) düzenlenmiş toplam 3 ifade içermektedir. Araştırma Soruları 1.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal SONUÇ VE ÖNERİLER Bu araştırmada sürdürülebilir yeni lüks markaların Y ve Z kuşaklarının satın alma niyetleri ve tüketici davranışları üzerinde etkisini cinsiyet ve gelir durumu açısından analiz edilmiştir. Demografik faktörlerden cinsiyet ve gelir durumu, satın alma niyeti ve davranışı üzerinde etkili olan önemli iki faktördür.Türkiye’deki Y ve Z kuşaklarını temsil eden tesadüfi olmayan örnekleme yöntemiyle seçilmiş 424 tüketiciden, kadın tüketicilerin erkek tüketicilere kıyasla, marka tercihleri, satın alma niyeti ve sürdürülebilirlik (ekonomik, çevresel, sosyal) anlamda istatiksel olarak daha yüksek olduğu saptanmıştır.Lüks markalar, toplum içinde prestij ve statü sembolleri olarak kabul edildiğinden, kadınlar lüks markaları tercih ederek sosyal çevrelerinde prestij kazanmayı amaçlamaktadırlar. Bireylerin kişisel tarzlarını ifade etmelerine yardımcı olabildikleri için, lüks ürünleri giyerek kendi benzersiz tarzlarını vurgulamak istemektedirler. Ayrıca lüks markalar genellikle yüksek kalite ve dayanıklılıkla ilişkilendirilir. Bu yüzden de kadınlar uzun süre kullanabilecekleri kaliteli ürünleri tercih etmektedirler. Lüks alışveriş, insanlara tatmin ve mutluluk hissi verdiğinden, kadınlar, lüks ürünleri satın alarak kendilerini ödüllendirmek istemektedirler.Demografik faktörlerden bir diğeri olan gelir düzeyine baktığımızda da, 17.501-22.500TL olan tüketicilerin marka tercihleri ve satın alma niyetleri diğer gelir durumlarına göre yüksektir. 11.403-17.500 gelir durumuna sahip tüketiciler, sürdürülebilirlik, ekonomik ve sosyal sürdürülebilirlik istatistiklerinde daha önemsedikleri ortaya çıkmaktadır. 11.402 ve altı gelir durumuna sahip tüketicilerin ise, çevresel sürdürülebilirlik istatistiklerinde daha hassas olduğu görülmektedir. Alıcıların kararlarında; alıcının yaşı, mesleği, ekonomik durumu, yaşam tarzı, kişiliği ve benlik kavramı gibi kişisel özelliklerin etkisi büyüktür. Bu nedenle satın alma davranışını etkileyen “kültürel faktörler”, “sosyal faktörler”, “psikolojik faktörler” ve “kişisel faktörler” üzerinde de gerekli çalışmalar yapılmalıdır. Gelecekte bu konu ile ilgili hem belirtilen faktörler değerlendirilmeli, hem de medeni hali ve eğitim durumu da değişkenlerin içinde olmalıdır. 1295 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal FLAT KARAKTER TASARIMI; JETGİLLER ÖRNEĞİ Selin ATİK (ORCID 0009-0000-8312-4292) İzmir Katip Çelebi University, Institute of Social Sciences, Department of Art and Design Studies, İzmir-Türkiye Email: selinndikmenoglu@gmail.com Özet Flat tasarımı ‘‘Düz Tasarım’’ sadeliğin ön planda olduğu minimalist bir tasarım stilidir. Modern, yalın ve temiz bir görünüm hedeflemektedir. Genellikle gölge ve kabartma gibi efektler yerine daha çok basit ve modern şekiller, düz renkler, keskin ve iki boyutlu tasarım dili kullanmaktadır. Üç boyuttan uzak bir yaklaşımı esas aldığı ve aynı zamanda geniş canlı renk skalası kullandığı gözlemlenmektedir. Teknolojinin gelişmesi ile birlikte günümüzde görsel tüketim hızı artmış, basılı ya da basılı olmayan grafik tasarım ürünlerinde, tablet ve telefonlardaki görsel imgelerde, arayüz sayfa tasarımlarında flat tasarım yaklaşımı görülmeye başlanmıştır. Günümüzde kullanım yaygınlığı devam eden bu tasarım yaklaşımının bugüne gelmesinde geçmiş dönem tasarım stillerinin etkisi de bulunmaktadır. İkinci Dünya Savaşı sonrası, 1940–1950’li yıllarda İsviçre’de modernist yaklaşımların görülmesi ve daha sonra popülerleşmesi, flat tasarım yaklaşımının ortaya çıkışı olarak kabul edilmektedir. Bu yaklaşım üzerinden yine aynı dönemlerde Hanna–Barbera yapım şirketi tarafından üretilen ve ABC kanalında (American Broadcasting Company) yayınlanan bir durum komedisi (sitcom) ve bilim kurgu aile çizgi dizisi olan Jetgiller’de de karakter ve mekân resimlemesinde flat tasarımı yaklaşımının uygulandığı gözlemlenmiştir. Bu çalışmada, flat karakter tasarımı yaklaşımı Jetgiller örneği üzerinden incelenecektir. Araştırmada nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden betimsel tarama modeli kullanılacak olup, flat tasarım anlayışının Jetgiller çizgi dizisindeki karakter tasarımlarına nasıl uygulandığı tasarım öğeleri üzerinden incelenecektir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal FLAT CHARACTER DESING; THE EXAMPLE OF THE JETSONS Abstract Flat design is a minimalist design style where simplicity is at the forefront. It aims for a modern, simple and clean look. It generally uses simple and modern shapes, solid colors, sharp and twodimensional design language instead of effects, such as shadow and relief. It is observed that it is based on an approach far from three dimensions and at the same time uses a wide range of vibrant colors. With the development of technology, the speed of visual consumption has increased, and flat design approach has started to be seen in printed or non-printed graphic design products, visual images on tablets phones and interface page designs. This design approach, which continues to be widely used today, has also influenced by the design styles of the past. The emergence and subsequent popularization of modernist approaches in Switzerland in the 1940s-1950s, after the Second World War, is accepted as the emergence of the flat design approach. Based on this approach, it was observed that flat design approach was applied in character and space illustrations in The Jetsons, a sitcom and science fiction family cartoon series produced by Hanna-Barbera production company and broadcast on ABC channel (American Broadcasting Company). In this study, flat character design approach will be analyzed through the example of The Jetsons. The descriptive survey model, one of the qualitative research methods, will be used in the study, and how the flat design approach is applied to the character designs in the Jetgiller cartoon series will be examined through design elements. Keywords: Graphic Design, Flat Design, Illustration, Character Design, Minimalism. 1299 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Grafik tasarım alanlarından biri olan illüstrasyon, görsel ifade dilini kullanarak bir metnin, düşüncenin ya da herhangi bir olayın izleyiciye ulaşmasını hedeflemektedir. Geçmişten günümüze teknolojinin gelişmesi ile birlikte resimleme olarak ta bilinen illüstrasyonun, çizim ve boyama teknikleri tablet ve bilgisayar ortamına taşınmıştır. Bununla birlikte dijital bağlamda illüstrasyon; çizgi diziler, animasyon filmleri, oyunlardaki mekân ve karakter tasarımları, üç boyutlu modellemeler üzerinde varlığını sürdürmektedir. İllüstrasyon temelli çizgi diziler, mekân ve karakter tasarımlarının yanı sıra ışık, gölge, doku, çizgi, açı, renk dinamiğinin sağladığı etkiler ile birlikte çocukların hayal dünyasını genişletmeyi amaçlamaktadır.Çocukların hayal dünyasının genişlemesi, iyi bir gözlemci olmaları üzerinden tanımlanabilir. ‘‘Görme konuşmadan önce gelmiştir. Çocuk konuşmaya başlamadan önce bakıp tanımayı öğrenir.’’ der sanat eleştirmeni ve yazar John Berger. Berger’in bu sözünden yola çıkarak çizgi dizilerde ki illüstratif öğelerin, çocuklara görsel etki yaratarak merak duygusunun gelişmesinde katkı saylayabileceği gibi eğitici ve öğretici olarak bilgi aktarım sürecinin de daha güçlü olabileceği söylenebilir. Günümüz çizgi dizilerinde olduğu gibi geçmiş dönem çizgi dizilerinde de bu unsurlar ön plana çıkmaktadır.Araştırmanın konusu olan Jetgiller çizgi dizisinin illüstratif anlatısal ifadesinde flat tasarım yaklaşımı olduğu gözlenmektedir. Jetgiller, 1962-63 yılları arasında yayınlanmış olsa da fütüristik anlatımı olan bir televizyon dizisidir ve aynı dönemlerde hayat bulmaya başlayan flat tasarımı yaklaşımı etkisi görülmektedir. Çalışmanın amacı, flat karakter tasarımı üzerinden Jetgiller örneği ile incelenip illüstratif dilde karakter resimlemesi hakkında bilgi vermektir. Araştırma, nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden betimsel tarama modeli ile internet ve kitap kaynaklarından elde edilen verilerle sınırlıdır. Çalışmanın konusu, görsel örnekler ile birlikte incelenmiş olup daha geniş bir biçimde bir araya getirilmeye çalışılmıştır. Elde edilen gözlem ve bulgular ışığında detaylıca incelenebilir. FLAT TASARIM Grafik sanatı, sanat tarihinde yerini almaya başladığından günümüze kadar çeşitli sanat akımlarından etkilenmiş farklı tarz ve tekniklerde karşımıza çıkmıştır. Tasarımcının yaşadığı dönemin sanat anlayışı ve toplumun kültürel yapısı yaptığı tasarımları da etkilemiştir (Becer, 2011, s.101). İngilizce kökenli olan flat kelimesinin Türkçe anlamı ‘‘düz’’ olarak söylenebilir. Düz kelimesini ise Türk Dil Kurumu (TDK) şöyle tanımlamıştır: ‘‘Yatay durumda olan, eğik ve dik olmayan, kıvrımlı olmayan; doğru, stabil. Yalın, sade, süssüz olan, desensiz’’(www.sozluk.gov.tr). Flat tasarım yaklaşımının tasarım dilinin bu tanımlamaya uygun olduğu söylenebilir. 1300 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Flat tasarım yaklaşımı günümüz tasarımlarında anlatı dili olarak popülerliğini koruyor olsa da aslında kökeni 1940-1950’li yıllara dayanmaktadır. Evrensel tasarım anlayışı olarak ‘‘Uluslararası Tipografik Üslup’’ veya ‘‘İsviçre Tasarımı’’ adı verilen stilin yansıması olduğu söylenebilir. Grafik tasarımın gelişmesinde ve grafik tasarım eğitiminin temelini oluşturan İsviçre stili, aktarılmak istenen mesajı matematiksel olarak çizilmiş kanava (grid) sistemi üzerinden net, sade, abartmalardan uzak, serifsiz yazı karakterleri ve basit geometrik şekillerle anlatmayı hedeflemiştir. İsviçre tasarım üslubunun görsel alfabesini oluşturan öğelerini, Becer (2020) ise şu şekilde açıklamıştır;“Matematiksel bir grid çizimi üzerinde asimetrik olarak düzenlenmiş tasarım unsurları ile oluşturulan görsel bütünlük, serifsiz yazı karakterleri kullanımı, genellikle soldan bloklanan, sağda serbest ve değişken satır uzunluklarına dayalı bir tipografik kompozisyon anlayışı, sözel ve görsel bilgileri açık ve berrak bir tasarım anlayışıyla ileten nesnel metin ve fotoğraflar, ticari reklamcılık ve propagandanın abartılı dilinden uzak, bağımsız bir tasarım anlayışı” (Becer, 2020, s. 264). Flat tasarım yaklaşımının kökeninde etkilendiği bir diğer sanat akımı ise minimalizm olduğu söylenebilir. Minimalizmin, grafik tasarım alanında ki etkisini İsviçre’de doğan uluslararası tipografik stil döneminde bulabiliriz. Minimalizm 1950’lerin sonlarında ortaya çıkarak netliği, saflığı ve sadeliği vurgulamıştır. Bu sanat akımının anlatı dili; detaylardan arındırılmış, illüzyon ve efektlerden uzak, anlaşılır olmasıdır. Dönemin modernist mimarlarından “Fakirlik, yoksunluk, eksiklik değildir. Minimalizm; aksine bilinçli bir tercihtir, zor olanı seçmektir, azla çok yapmaktır.” sözleriyle açıkladığı Minimalizm felsefesini ünlü “Less is more” sözüyle “Az çoktur” ifadesini kullanarak özetlemiştir (Islakoğlu, 2006, 4’ten akt. Döl ve Avşar, 2013).Bu ifadeden yola çıkarak flat tasarım yaklaşımı üzerinde minimalizm sanat akımının etkileri olduğu tespit edilebilir. Kökeninde minimalizm sanat akımını barındıran flat tasarım yaklaşımı minimalizme göre kullanım alanları çok daha esnektir; web siteleri, kurumsal kimlik tasarımları, mobil ara yüzler, oyun tasarımları, animasyonlar ve çizgi diziler gibi birçok alanda yetkinliğini sürdürmektedir. Flat tasarım yaklaşımı üç boyut hissiyatını oluşturma kaygısına sahip değildir. Bu nedenle efektlerden, abartılardan, süslemelerden uzak ve basit anlatımı benimsediği görülebilir. Bu tasarım yaklaşımı illüstratif anlatımlar üzerinden güncel uygulamalarda ve geçmiş uygulamalarda çok yaygın olarak kullanılmıştır. Bu uygulama alanlarından biriside karakter tasarımıdır. KARAKTER TASARIMI Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary (Oxford Gelişmiş Öğrenci Sözlüğü) karakter kelimesini: ‘‘Bir kişiyi diğerlerinden farklı kılan tüm nitelikler ve özellikler’’ olarak 1301 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal tanımlamıştır(https://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/definition/english/character?q=cha racter). Tasarım kelimesinin birçok anlamı olsa da tasarım yapmak, sonucu görmek ve ona ulaşmak konusunda hayal gücüyle ortaya konulan biçim, zihinde hayal etmek veya canlandırmak üzerinden tanımlanabilir. Geçmişten günümüze kadar teknolojinin de gelişmesi ile birlikte çizgi romanlar, animasyon filmleri, çizgi diziler, oyunlar, çocuk kitapları gibi birçok mecrada karakter tasarımı olduğu gözlemlenebilir. Karakterler sosyolojik, psikolojik ve fizyolojik açıdan topluma ve bireylere dair olgular barındırsa da uygulanan doğru karakter tasarımı izleyici tarafından kabul görünüp benimsenmesine olanak sağlayabilir. Bu süreçte çizerler, toplumda gözlemlemiş olduğu insan, nesne, mekân, hayvan gibi unsurlar üzerinden pek çok karaktere ait davranış biçimi yükleyebilir.Karakter tasarımının öncelikli olarak canlandırma sanatçıları ile ortaya çıktığı söylenebilir. Winsor McCay, Frank Moser, Early Hurd, Émile Cohl gibi sanatçılar ilk canlandırma sanatçıları olarak görülebilir. Bu sanatçılar tasarlamış olduğu karakterlerle birlikte yeni oluşturulacak olan karakter tasarımları için de hem ilham kaynağı hem de bir yol gösterici niteliğini taşımaktadır. Bir örnek olarak Winsor Zenic McCay (1869-1934) gazete karikatüristi olarak bilinmektedir. McCay’in çalışması olan Dinozor Gertie (Gertie the Dinosaur (1914)) ile izleyicilere çizgi film karakterlerinin çizim aşamalarını göstermektedir (bkz Görsel 1). Bu çalışma, zoomorfizm olgusunun çizgi karakterler üzerinde ki ilk örneği olarak görülmektedir. Gertie karakterinin verilen komutlara yanıt vermesi ve mamut karakterine alınganlık yaparak ağlaması, dans etmesi üzerinden dinazora karakter tasarımında insana özgü kavramlar yüklendiği görülmektedir. Görsel 1: Winsor McCay, Dinozor Gertie, 1914.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal karakterin ve öykünün anlamlı bağlantısı üzerine olan ilgi filmin izlenme olanağını arttırabilmektedir. Karakter tasarımı, günümüzde gelişen teknoloji ile birlikte birçok oyun, çizgi dizi, animasyon gibi alanları ilgilendiren sektörleri kapsamaktadır. Bu alanlar ile ilgilenen sektörler izleyicilerin veya oyuncuların bir ya da birden fazla kurgusal karakterlerin bulunduğu mecralarda hikâye anlatımı üzerinden karakterlerin farklılaşması için karakter tasarımına ihtiyaç duymaktadır. KARAKTER TASARIM ÖĞELERİ Karakterlerin birbirlerinden farklılaşabilmesi için ise tasarlanan karakterin form ve renk üzerinden oluşturulabilmesi olduğu söylenebilir. Karakterin kişiliğini sağlayan form ise tasarım kurallarına uygun olarak anatomik oranlar içerisinde verilmesi gerekmektedir. Form, karakterin kolaylıkla ayırt edilebilecek bir siluete sahip olmaları açısından önemli sayılabilecek bir unsur olarakta görülebilir. Tasarlanan karaktere uyum sağlayacak olan kostüm ve aksesuarlar ise karakter tasarımında temel konuların içerisinde yer almaktadır. Karakter tasarımında form, genel hatlarıyla birlikte kabaca geometrik şekillerden oluşmaktadır. Bu geometrik şekiller tasarlanan karakterin kişiliği hakkında ön bilgi niteliği taşıyabilir. Bu yüzden yaratılmak istenen karakter için tasarlanacak olan formun özellikleri de önemlidir. Üçgen formlar sivri tavrıyla hareket, hız, gerilim ve tehlike, yuvarlak formlar sevimlilik, cana yakınlık, mutluluk ve rahatlık, kare formlar ise öfke, güven, inatçılık, dayanıklılık gibi çağrışımlar yaratmaktadır. Karakterin tasarlanan formu onu özgün kılan ilk unsur olarak görülebilir fakat formun yanı sıra karakterin kolaylıkla tanınmasında yardımcı olan bir diğer nokta ise siluettir. Siluet, forma bağlı kalınarak oluşturulmuş olan gölge eş zamanlı olarakta karakterin sahip olduğu özgün bir detay olarak belirtilebilir. Form ve siluet birleştiğinde izleyicinin ya da okuyucunun görsel algısına hitap ederek karakteri ayırt edebilmesini sağlamaktadır. Bir çizer tasarladığı karakterin silueti ile karakterin formu, saçının şekli, kostüm ve aksesuarları vb. görsel unsurları algılamasını kolaylaştırabilir. Bu sayede çizerin iyi bir şekilde tasarladığı siluet, karakterin görsel kimliğinin bir parçası haline gelebilir. Çizerin tasarlamış olduğu form ve siluetin tasarım kurallarına uygun anatomik oran ve denge içerisinde olması da önemli bir unsurdur.Karakterin yapısı tasarlanacak olan form üzerinden belirli ölçü ve oran dahilinde olmalıdır. Karakterdeki anatomik yapısı ve bu yapıyı oluşturan parçalar; ağırlık, yaş ve boy onun fiziksel kapasitesi üzerinden bir sınırlılık yaratabilir. Karakterlerin birbirleri arasında oluşan farklılık ise oran-orantıyla ilgilidir. Tasarlanmak istenen karaktere ait farklılıkları vurgulamak ve daha anlaşılır olması için oran orantı ilişkisiyle birlikte denge unsurundan yararlanılır. Zafer Özden ve Çağdaş Ülgen (2015), karakterin kendi içerinde ki oranlarını şu şekilde açıklamışlardır: 1303 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ‘‘Beden oranları saptanırken, ölçüt olarak baş kullanılmaktadır. Beden tasarlanırken beden başa oranla oluşturulmaktadır. Canlandırma filmlerinde karakter tasarımları, genellikle karakterlerin özelliklerine bağlı olarak iki baş ile dokuz baş arasında bir ölçü değeri içinde yapılmaktadır’’Normal bir desen üzerinden değerlendirilecek olunursa bir insanın vücuduna oranı yedi-sekiz baş uzunluğu arasında değişmektedir. Bir çizer karakteri tasarlarken karakterin kişilik yapısıyla anatomik yapısının birbirleriyle uyumlu ve denge içerisinde olacak şekilde tasarlamaktadır. Sevimli bir karakterin formu yuvarlak olarak tasarlansa da bazen anatomik yapısı dengede olacak şekilde baş büyük, beden küçük olarak karşımıza çıkabilmektedir ya da baş küçük beden büyük olarak tasarlanan karakterler güçlü biri yenilmez bir karakter olarakta tanımlanabilmektedir. Karakterin kişilik özelliklerini belirleyen bir diğer unsur ise karakterde ki renk kullanımıdır.Renk, iletişimin doğal bir öğesi olarak sayılsa da insanlar için psikolojik etkileri olduğu gözlenmektedir. Bir bilgi yazılı olmasa dahi renkler aracılığı ile iletilmek istenen mesaj psikolojik bağlamda ve bilinçaltının etkisiyle insanların zihninde canlanabilmektedir. Renkler sıcak (sarı, kırımızı, turuncu) ve soğuk (mavi, yeşil, mor) olarak ikiye ayrılmaktadır. Genellikle sıcak renklerin insanları harekete geçirdiği ve canlılık uyandırdığı gözlenmektedir. Soğuk renklerin ise insanlarda sakinlik, güven ve rahatlık uyandırdığı söylenebilir. Algılama ve yorumlama üzerine renklerin döneme ve kültüre ait anlamlarının değişmesinden dolayı her bir rengin psikolojik etkisinin evrenselliğinden ve sürekliliğinden bahsetmek olumlu olmayabilir. Karakter tasarımında doğru renk dağılımının yapılması önemli bir unsurdur. Karakterlerin hareketlerinin rahatlıkla okunabilmesi, öykü ile birlikte karakterin kişilik özelliklerine ait renklerin seçilmesi ve karakterlerin bir araya geldiğinde anlamlı bir bütün oluşturabilmesi adına renkler karakter tasarımında önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Karakter tasarımında renk kullanımının yanı sıra kostüm ve aksesuarlarda karaktere ayrıcalık kazandırabilmektedir.Karakter tasarımında kostüm ve aksesuar karakterin kişilik özelliklerini, bedensel özelliklerini, yaşadığı dönemi, içerisinde bulunduğu kültürü ve mesleği üzerine bilgi verme niteliği taşımaktadır. Karakter tasarımı yapılırken kostüm ve aksesuar (pelerin, şapka, baston, kılıç, çanta, vb.) karakterin formunu ve siluetini etkilediği gözlemlenmektedir. Bu nedenle karakterin kostüm ve aksesuar detayları tasarlanırken karakterin kişiliğine uyum sağlayacak ve bedensel görünümünü dikkate alınacak şekilde tasarlanması gerekmektedir. Karakter, hareket ve aksiyon yüklü ise tasarlanan kostüm ve aksesuarda izleyicide hareket uyandıracak nitelikte kıvrımlı çizgilere sahip olabilmektedir. Tam tersi karakter durağan bir kişiliğe sahip ise karakterin kostüm ve aksesuar tasarımında kullanılan çizgilerde sade, kıvrımdan uzak bir şekilde tasarlanabilmektedir. Karakter tasarımında form, siluet, anatomik 1304 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yapı, renk, kostüm ve aksesuar gibi karakter tasarım öğelerinin dışında karakterin dış görünüşünü, tarzını ve kişiliğini etkileyebilecek olan üslup öğelerinin olduğu söylenebilir. Türk Dil Kurumu (TDK) üslup sözcüğünü şu şekilde tanımlamıştır: ‘‘Sanatçının görüş, duyuş ve anlayışındaki kendine özgü anlatış biçimi; biçem, hava, stil’’(www.sozluk.gov.tr). Üslup, karakter tasarımında karakterin tarzını ve kişiliğini yansıtmasında önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Karakter tasarımında üslup, diğer tasarım öğelerinde olduğu gibi bütünlüğü etkileyebilmektedir. Karakter tasarım öğeleri, kullanılacak olan üsluba bağlı kalınacak ve uyumlu olunacak şekilde oluşturulmalıdır. Üslup aynı zamanda hedef kitleyi de oluşturabilmektedir. Karakter tasarımında kullanılan üslup basit ve sevimli ise çocuklar için tasarlanmış veya karmaşık detaylara yer veren gerçekçi bir üslup kullanılıyorsa yetişkinlere yönelik tasarlanmış olabilmektedir. Bu yaklaşımdan yola çıkılacak olursa bir çizerin tercih ettiği üsluba göre karakterlerin tasarımları da değişiklik gösterdiği söylenebilir. Bu araştırma kapsamında illüstrasyon alanı üzerinden karakter tasarım öğeleri ele alınarak Jetgiller çizgi dizisinin George, Jane, Judy, Elroy ve Astro karakterlerine günümüz tasarım üslubu olan flat yaklaşımının yansımaları incelenecektir. FLAT TASARIM YAKLAŞIMINDA JETGİLLER KARAKTER TASARIM ÖRNEĞİ Jetgillerin yaratıcısı olan yapım ve yönetmen ekibi William Hanna ve Joseph Barbera olduğu bilinmektedir. 1950’lerin sonu ile 1960’ların ortası, Hanna ve Barbera’nın en yaratıcı dönemi olduğu söylenebilir. Hanna-Barbera Taş Devri, Ayı Yogi ve Jetgiller animasyon karakterleri ile ön plana çıkmaktadır. Jetgiller ilk olarak 1962-1963’e kadar eğlence kuşağı olarakta bilinen prime time’da yayınlanmış olup daha sonra 1985-87 arasında yeni bölümleri tekrar üretilip gösterime sunulmuştur (Matt Novak, 2012). Jetgiller çizgi dizisinin ilk gösterime sunulduğu tarihten önce ki dönemlerde flat üslubunun başlangıcı olarak kabul görüldüğü söylenebilir. Jetgiller çizgi dizisinin tasarım üslubunda flat yaklaşımının izleri olduğu görülmektedir. İncelenecek olan karakterlerden ilki George Jetson’ dır.George, jetgiller çizgi dizisinin kurgusal bir karakteri olup aynı zamanda Jetgiller ailesinde baba rolünü üstlenmektedir. Düzenli olarak işine gidip gelen bir çalışan olarak bilinmektedir. George karakterinin tasarımında kullanılan form yapısı, geometrik bir yapı olup sade şekliyle ön plana çıkmaktadır. Karakterin formunda ki hatlar kontur çizgileri ile desteklenmektedir. Karakterde gölge kullanılmamış olup aynı zamanda anatomik yapısının üç boyutluluktan uzak yalın bir şekilde ve iki boyutlu olarak tasarlandığı görülmektedir. Karakterde tasarlanan kostüm, mavi pantolon, yeşil kemer, beyaz gömlek ve ayakkabıdan oluşmaktadır. Karakterin beyaz ayakkabısının üzerinde birbirine paralel konumlanan çember şeklinde bir çeşit sade aksesuar bulunmaktadır (bkz. Görsel 2). 1305 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Jetgiler ailesinde incelenecek olan bir diğer karakter Judy Jetson’dır. Judy, George ve Jane’nin kızlarıdır. Jane daha çok fütüristik zevklere sahip olan bir kız olarak bilinmektedir. Karakterde kullanılan form yapısı sade bir geometrik şekle sahiptir. Judy karakterinin form yapısı kontur çizgileri kullanılarak desteklenmektedir. Karakterde gölge kullanılmamış olup iki boyutlu bir yapıya sahip olduğu gözlemlenmektedir. Judy karakterinin kostümü sade bir t-shirt, etek, çorap ve ayakkabıdan oluşmaktadır. Karakterin kostüm ayrıntıları fuşya renginin farklı tonları ile belirtilmektedir. Karakterde kullanılan toka aksesuarı sade, yalın, düz ve siyah renkli olduğu gözlemlenmektedir (bkz. Görsel 4). Görsel 4: Judy Jetson Kaynak:https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/rockin-with-judyjetson/umc.cmc.6vb9xrmitrldndso0km1280xa Jetson çizgi dizisinde incelenecek olan bir diğer karakter ise Elroy Jetson’ dır. Elroy, Jetgiller ailesinin en küçük çocuğu olup George ve Jane’nin oğlu aynı zamanda Judy’nin erkek kardeşi olarak bilinmektedir. Elroy, oldukça zeki bir çocuk aynı zamanda uzay bilimlerine meraklı olmasıyla ön plana çıkmaktadır. Karakter için kullanılan form yalın geometrik şekillerden oluşmaktadır. Gölge kullanılmamış olup detaylar kontur çizgileri ile ele alınmış, yapısı iki boyutlu olarak ön plana çıkmaktadır. Karakterin kostüm tasarımında yeşil sade bahçıvan kıyafeti, basit beyaz t-shirt ve birbirine paralel olarak sade bir anlatımla tasarlanmış olan çember detaylı şapka kullanıldığı gözlemlenmektedir (bkz. Görsel 5). 1307 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal SONUÇ İllüstrasyon alanında gerçekleştirilen uygulamaların çocuk ve yetişkin yönünden her yaşa hitap ettiği söylenebilir. Bununla birlikte resimlemenin eğlence sektöründe oyun, animasyon ve çizgi dizi gibi benzer birçok alanda farklı tasarım yaklaşımları ile ele alındığı gözlemlenebilmektedir. Günümüz teknolojisinin gelişmesiyle birlikte artan tüketim hızının tasarım yaklaşımlarına yansıması sade, net, abartılardan ve görsel efektlerden uzak okunabilirliği kolay ve akıcı olması yönünden flat tasarımı günümüz tasarımlarında güçlü bir anlatım tekniği olarak kullanılmaktadır. Bu yaklaşım türü hala popülerliğini koruyor olsa da geçmiş dönemlerin tasarım anlayışlarında da izleri görülmektedir.Araştırma kapsamında incelenen Jetgiller çizgi dizisinin, flat tasarım yaklaşımı ile ele alındığı saptanmıştır. Bu yaklaşımın yapısı ve var olan anlatım dili geçmiş dönem tasarım anlayışlarında var olduğu görülmüştür. Araştırma üzerinden sunulan örnekler, karakter tasarımları ve tasarım öğeleri açısından incelendiğinde günümüz flat tasarımının bir yansıması olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. 1309 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EVALUATION OF GERTRUDE STEIN'S STUDIO IN THE CONTEXT OF POSTMODERN MUSEUM PRACTICES Kemal Barış İLBI Ankara University Ceren Güner ÖZ Ankara University ABSTRACT Today, museums are trying to adapt their exhibition and presentation techniques, approaches and practices to the environments in which new art is produced. In the definition of contemporary museum prepared by the International Council of Museums, it is emphasized that the museum is a non-profit, permanent institution that researches, collects, preserves, interprets, exhibits and is at the service of the society. Along with updating its functions with its new definition, the museum has become responsible for promoting diversity and sustainability as public, accessible and inclusive institutions. To provide a variety of experiences for education, entertainment and knowledge sharing; working ethically, professionally and with the participation of communities, as well as communicating with visitors and audiences, has been added to the definition as the functions that museums assume responsibility for. In this context, with the changing definition, important changes have started to occur in the content of museum visits and in the expectations of visitors. Museum visits, which have started to become individual journeys, become experiences that support lifelong learning with exhibitions that are created in accordance with this expectation that came to the fore with the new definition, and where principles such as "inclusivity", "learning by sharing", which are postmodern museum criteria, are focused and presented. In this study, the art studio of the American writer Gertrude Stein, which is described as “the first museum of modern art", is discussed through the concept of contemporary micro-museum. In this context, examples of museums that are open to diversity, encouraging intercultural communication, organized around Gertrude Stein's "salonstudio model" have been assessed in Turkey. The Adam Michiewicz Museum, Doğançay Museum, Orhan Kemal Museum and Ara Güler Museum in Istanbul, which are thought to be suitable for the salon-studio model in terms of content, were examined. it has also been discussed how the dissemination of the salon-studio model will contribute to the concept of postmodern museum and contemporary micro-museum practices. Keywords: museum, museum studies, micromuseum, studio museum, Gertrude Stein 1311 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal POSTMODERNISM, DIVERSITY, AND EVOLVING MUSEUMS Micro Museums In contrast to larger museums whose missions and ideals are acknowledged by the public, smaller museums that aim to give visitors a sense of the local and indigenous cultures have started to open in many nations throughout the world in the last century. These museums, which Candlin (2016) calls "Micro museums", generally concentrate on famous people who lived in different parts of the world and added value to the national or international community with their productions, courage or heroism, create exhibitions by displaying the objects these wellknown individuals used when they were alive to celebrate their lives and commemorate their memories. The museums mentioned above, the majority of which are small-scale, focus on a single subject or theme outside of academic fields, are independent, and often employ more than ten paid staff members (Candlin, 2016, Hibbins, 2022). The micro museums have sparked a significant shift in the way that museums and museology are conceptualized and have made reformative advancements possible in the area. These spaces hosted exhibitions that were typically centered around the life of a particular artist or a specific theme. The context of any chosen subject served as the foundation for the development of the interaction between the shown objects and the audience. Since opening their doors to the public, particularly in rural areas, micro museums have concentrated on telling local and regional stories and have begun to host exhibitions with original artifacts and genuine local details to draw tourists to these areas (Hibbins, 2022, Vella, Cutajar, 2014). Micro museums, some of which have more flexible administrative structures, are not under the direct control of any national, regional, or local government agency or body. In other words, managerial interventions in the processes of exhibition formation and creation are less usual, according to Candlin (2016), therefore, micro museums are now the ones creating artistic production environments where multifaceted communication takes place by refocusing attention and concentration from culturally dominant formations to extraordinary ones. This is claimed to be the best way to demonstrate diversity and inclusivity, which is one of the key tenets of postmodern museums. «Lost Generation» and Gertrude Stein’s Salon Many thinkers and artists of the early 20th century attempted to combat the negative consequences of the depressing, conservative, and oppressive social codes, facts, and conventions of the preceding century, particularly just before World Wars I and II. The startling results of the economic downturns and crises that industrialized nations had through during that period forced society to reevaluate the social norms they had up until that point. Getrude Stein, 1312 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal a writer and art collector who was a key architect of the social change and transformation movement, was born into a Jewish American family in Allegheny, Pennsylvania, on February 3, 1874. Before moving back to the United States in 1880, Stein—who would later travel to Europe with her family—lived in two separate European cities: Vienna and Paris. The family moved back to America and lived in San Francisco. (Greelane, 2021). After his brother Leo Stein moved to Paris in the early 1900s, Gertrude Stein traveled to France in 1903. In the meantime, some American artists settled in Paris who would later lead new art movements, be a pioneer in social shifts, and have significant roles in the growth of that era's art world. The phrase "lost generation" was coined to characterize this group of people who had lived through the devastation caused by World War I, had witnessed its effects firsthand, had their lives completely upended, and had the guts to speak out against the judgmental, stereotyped values and oppressive lifestyles of the previous generation (Jaracz, 2021). F. Scott Fitzgerald, Gertrude Stein, Ernest Hemingway, and T.S. Eliot were among the writers and poets of this century and generation who relocated to Paris to breathe and immerse themselves in the inventive setting and reap the rewards of this vibrant and progressive milieu (Longley, 2020). In the same years, Gertrude Stein, who started to gain recognition as an authority and specialist on literature and art, welcomed Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Sinclair, Cezanné, Henri Matissé, Pablo Picasso at her art hall, number 27, on Fleurus Street, according to Özsezgin (2015). In short, Gertrude Stein created this space; the studio hall at 27 Fleurus Street where she hosted writers and painters who were considered "extraordinary" at the time but are now recognized as the most prominent artists and intellectuals of the 20th century. The space evolved into a micro art museum and collective production area where dynamic discussions took place to spark the development of modern art concepts and criteria. As an interdisciplinary interaction space and a shared cluster, Stein's Hall can be regarded as a place where one of the indispensable merits is valued in postmodern museum criteria, given its direct impact on the art creative processes across many fields. Gertrude Stein's 'Salon’ also fostered the artistic understanding of the era and established a liberating and queer atmosphere; It evolved into a location that not only meets but also exceeds the requirements of many postmodern and modern museums, helping to shape some of them. In addition, given the content of the collection in the hall and the diversity of the audience and participants, Gertrude Stein's "Studio" was a platform that united various groups and visits which would trigger the creation, sharing, intercultural and interdisciplinary learning processes that individuals were happy with. 1313 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Method and Scope This study was designed as descriptive research in the document scanning model. The screening model is a research model that aims to detect a past and present situation as it exists. In the study, a literature review was conducted, accompanied by written and visual texts, about Gertrude Stein's artist identity, her works, her studies and the salon-studio museum model she created; documents and examples related to micro museums were examined, and the findings were edited and shared as they existed. The document of this study is four Studio - Art and Artist Museums: Adam Michiewicz Museum, Doğançay Museum, Orhan Kemal Museum and Ara Güler Museum, which serve in Turkey and have the status of private museums within the framework of Gertrude Stein's "Salon - Studio museum" example. These museums were first identified and examined as micro museum examples, examples of art museums or studio museums. Secondly, web pages and publications related to the identified museums were searched; they were visited by the researcher between 2021 and 2023, and the collected data was compiled into a report and presented as suggestions. The data of the research were collected with structured interview forms and researcher observation notes. The researcher asked the following questions to the experts working in relevant museums: 1. Does the museum have an information brochure/booklet prepared in different languages using universal intercultural elements? 2. Does the museum have object labels, touch screens that introduce objects, etc.? Have the items been prepared in different languages in a way that can attract the attention of different age groups? 3. Have exhibitions been prepared and presentations focused on audience participation in the museum? 4. Are the physical conditions and facilities of the museum (education room, recreation areas, cafe, etc.) arranged in a way where "vulnerable and disadvantaged" groups can come together and share their impressions about the museum? 5. Are there activities in the museum that will support the co-creation and sharing process for the participation of different groups? 6. Are interactive methods centered on advanced technology that will support active and lifelong learning used in the museum? 7. Are social media accounts used to introduce museum exhibitions? 1314 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Findings and Interpretation Numerous small-scale museums featuring individuals and artists can be found across Turkey's cities. To assess if these museums are near an inclusive museum model open to cultural diversity that can be created based on Gertrude Stein's "Salon - Studio," it is necessary to determine whether their management styles adhere to contemporary postmodern museum understanding and criteria, whether the exhibitions organized are constructed by applying postmodern presentation methods, and so on. While carrying out this research, four of the “artist-important person” museums that met the micro museum criteria that were open to visitors in Istanbul were selected and visited by the researcher between 2021 and 2023. Before these research trips, an evaluation form containing postmodern micro museum criteria was prepared and the museums visited were examined in line with these criteria. MICRO ART MUSEUMS IN THE RESEARCH Adam Mickiewicz Museum Adam Mickiewicz Museum, located in the center of Istanbul as an artist museum, was converted from a residence to a museum in 1955. The museum building is important because it is the house where Adam Mickiewicz lived until 1855 (Bektaş and Yalçınkaya, 2020). Mickiewicz is a poet, patriot and the most important representative of Romanticism in Polish literature, the author of the Polish national epic, who is equated with names such as George Byron and Johann Wolfgang Goethe. The Adam Mickiewicz Museum has a comprehensive booklet on Mickiewicz published by the Polish Consulate General. This booklet consists of articles full of biographical elements such as the poet's personal history, why and when he came to Istanbul, examples of his poems, and articles about the history of the museum. The museum booklet is prepared only in Turkish. Since this booklet is an example prepared using encyclopaedic information about the poet, the museum, the street and the district (Pera) where it is located, rather than a museum brochure that will appeal to different communities or age groups, the intended audience is limited to a certain intellectual group. Since Mickiewicz is a national poet of Poland, these articles, which center on the historical, social, and cultural ties between the two nations, were penned by highly qualified experts and academics; however, audiences from different age groups and social classes will find them uninteresting. The audience can be drawn in by the "history strip" prepared and hung on the museum walls in three languages (Turkish, English, and Polish). It was made with historical details from both cultures, the poet's personal effects, and the hallways brimming with details and artifacts unique to the local Polish culture. Although the identity cards of the objects on display are meticulously 1315 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal created, there is not enough information or explanation to spark interest across various age and cultural groups. The museum's digital presentations give visitors detailed information on the subject matter. The "poem tree" artwork on the third level, which is constructed out of tiny book pages, is one of the exhibitions important tools that emphasizes audience engagement and is thought to be an application to boost visitor contact. These little sheets of the poet's many poems are available for readers to read. If they'd like, they can even tear off a branch from one of the pages and carry it with them as a tangible reminder of their trip to the museum. In the threestorey museum building, an infrastructure system has not been created to allow disabled visitors to access the museum floors. While the well-designed seating areas placed on each floor of the museum enable the audience to rest and evaluate the objects they see, yet the terrace on the top floor of the building is not actively used. There are no activities in the museum that will enable the participation of different groups, and there is no museum educator who can communicate with the audience.Therefore, as emphasized by Taylor and Neill (2008), it is not possible for educational activities, which are considered the strongest aspect of contemporary museums in the context of social studies, to be carried out with a planned educator. Furthermore, the museum lacks a social media presence on any platform that could promote more interpersonal communication. The Adam Michiewicz Museum is described on the Ministry's website /museumkart website in both Turkish and English, along with a few images and a brief description, like other museums under the Ministry of Culture and Tourism. Doğançay Museum Turkey's first museum dedicated to modern art; Doğançay Museum opened its doors to the public in 2004 (Doğançay Museum, 2023). With collections curated from artist Burhan Doğançay's works from the past to the present, the museum provides an opportunity to explore the artist's evolving understanding of art throughout time as well as look at his paintings. Burhan Doğançay's works exhibited in the museum include his figurative works; In the cities where he lived during his maturity period, he produced works inspired by the walls, which he saw as the most important sharing environments of the post-modern city and depicted as platforms where all the myths and stories about the city could be solved, etc. (Doğançay Museum, 2023). The museum also gives visitors the chance to compare the works produced by the Doğançays, and therefore to follow the differences in both style and content in the art perceptions and approaches of the Doğançays, father and son, and the traces left by the social movements and art movements of the historical periods in which they lived. The museum visitor guide booklet is meant to serve as a reference book for art enthusiasts of all ages and backgrounds, as it 1316 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal provides extensive information about the painter's life, artwork, and museum exhibits. This contrasts with the brochures and promotional booklets, which lack the comprehensiveness necessary to appeal to various audiences, communities, or age groups. The five-storey Doğançay Museum's well-designed display galleries and lighting system allow it to present the works of Burhan and Adil Doğançay in a spectacular fashion by placing them within their respective historical artistic periods. Audiences from a variety of age groups and cultural backgrounds can enjoy visiting the museum because the bilingual tags of the works are placed in convenient locations, are readable without complicating the presentation of the works, and allow users to download the necessary information to their smartphones via the QR codes prepared for each work. Furthermore, information regarding the time periods in which the works were produced can be accessed by scanning the QR codes that have been placed next to the artwork. One can also create a personal connection with the artist by traveling to the historical process and setting in which the artists created their works through listening to the significant music of the era. Although more interactive and audience-oriented technological methods such as touch screens are not used, the use of important musical works of the period as another art that could trigger the production of painting enable the audience to establish a personal relationship with the exhibited works and make the museum experience more permanent. The museum offers services such as teahouses and elevators designed to facilitate the travels of both general visitors and disadvantaged groups and provide them with a respite. Therefore, a visitor who wants to visit the museum in a wheelchair can go to the upper floors by elevator. Important steps taken to ensure the continuity of the museum include not ignoring this issue, which is crucial for audience inclusion, and fostering an atmosphere where guests from various groups can congregate and discuss their thoughts about the works, thanks to the free tea hours held at specific times in the ground floor teahouse. The museum hosts a few lectures and activities that are open to participation from various organizations. For instance: Since September 2021, the museum's culture and art center has hosted the "Beyond Borders" event, which has facilitated discussions between professionals and academics and young people. The series of seminars called “Beyond Borders” is the first of the Doğançay Museum online seminars. Orhan Kemal Museum Orhan Kemal Museum was established in 2000 with the contributions of the Orhan Kemal Culture and Arts Coordination Office on the ground floor of a five-storey building in Beyoğlu, with the aim of keeping the memory of the writer Orhan Kemal alive. In the museum, objects 1317 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal used by Orhan Kemal in certain periods of his life (his glasses, his typewriter, which was one of the most important objects in the construction and shaping of a writer's production area during his lifetime, etc.), his private belongings, private correspondence, family photographs and photographs taken by the famous photographer Ara Güler are exhibited (Hürriyet, 2023). All works in the museum are exhibited with "object-oriented" classical presentation techniques and lighting system. The works were not presented with more technologically advanced applications like touch displays or Barco vision, which may draw in audiences of all ages. The preparation of item tags, which are primarily date tags, is limited to Turkish, making it difficult for audiences and visitors from other countries or cultures to comprehend and relate to the significance of the objects, their histories, and general background. Audience interaction is not feasible because all the museum's works are exhibited using "object-oriented" display systems and lighting processes. Stated differently, the museum does not employ strategies that would boost attendance by endorsing the technology-driven education-entertainment model. Other than leaving notes in the "memory book" located at the museum's entry, there isn't any activity in which the audience can actively participate. The rooms housing the exhibits on display are the only areas of the museum, which is housed in a tiny flat. The Orhan Kemal Museum draws interest from both domestic and foreign tourists due to its status as an artist-museum named after a significant and well-known writer, as well as the writer's and his works' significant influence in both Turkey and the global literary community. To put it succinctly, the museum's display of its artifacts lacks interactivity, and its planned programs play little part in drawing in people from diverse cultural backgrounds. Ara Güler Museum A micromuseum with a similar concept, Ara Güler Museum, converted the old Bomonti Beer Factory into a cultural socializing platform in the city's centre, making it one of the public collective production spaces. In honour of renowned photographer Ara Güler, one of Istanbul's most significant memory collectors, the museum opened its doors in 2018. The museum strives to fulfil these objectives and missions. It was founded to preserve the images that Ara Güler took over the years and present them to the younger generations. It also aims to create both temporary and permanent exhibitions using selected frames from its archive and to make them accessible to audiences interested in photography from a variety of social backgrounds. The 2018 opening of the Ara Güler Museum in Bomontiada and its exhibitions have become a significant link in the formation of ties between various social classes because of the imprints they leave on the city's cultural memory and the interactive and transitional dialogue they foster 1318 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal within people. The "A Handful of Beautiful People" exhibition welcomes guests into the museum's rooms, which are exceptionally well-designed for a photography museum, maintaining the exhibitions' genuine appearance and meticulous preparation, from the presentations to the well-chosen photos. Books about Ara Güler and his work, which are compiled from his archive, are available for purchase on the museum store's shelves, but no brochure regarding the museum's founding or the current show is available for viewing. Examining the works is made easier by the efficient lighting system that illuminates the panel dividers made of the walls. The fact that date strips and object tags are generated in both Turkish and English gives viewers from other cultures or countries an advantage in terms of information accessibility. The effect created by exhibition presentations made inside the texture of a historical place allows visitors to feel as though they are a part of the works and the historical processes in which they were produced. Because of this genuine environment, the museum has grown to be a significant hub for public acculturation as well as a gathering place and sociability hub for visitors. Specifically, the museum's interior architecture is showcased through its design, which includes exhibition spaces and seating arrangements tailored to suit various audience demographics. While speaking with museum authorities, it was learned that a few workshops and events had been planned for the participation of various organizations; however, no formal program or informational brochure had been prepared for these events. Because it is an artist-museum named after a significant and well-known artist, like Doğançay and Orhan Kemal Museum, and because Ara Güler's works are well-known in Turkey and throughout the world of art, the museum draws both domestic and foreign visitors. The Ara Güler Museum has also active social media profiles in addition to a webpage with basic information about the institution. Conclusion Museums are communal centers of acculturation and socialization that seek to build bridges between the past, present and future, offer meaningful experiences to communities and individuals while striving to achieve this purpose and mission, and aim to strengthen communication between societies and cultures by eliminating prejudices. (Anonymous cited by Yılmaz, Er, 2020: 171). Today, technology is used to create spaces where unlimited communication takes place seamlessly in such an addictive manner, and where our emotions and feelings become a commodity for consumption. Although these socializing environments are spaces created to encourage the strengthening of people's bonds with each other and to support the dialogue 1319 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal between cultures and different communities, these channels are created to provide instant information exchange and flow rather than to reinforce the communication between individuals. As a result of the excessive and unnecessary use of these spaces, the life arteries of many individuals are blocked, the functional abilities they need to use in daily life are restricted, and it is observed that they become identities with serious problems of focusing. The atmosphere created by these "sharing spaces" aims to make individuals visible instead of creating common grounds upon which they might share and exchange ideas with one another. Owing to the controversial phenomenon and practice of radical democracy imposed by global capitalism, in which all our personal data is systematically stored and stocked, and which has been simply developed by being placed in the centre of the concept of "deconstruction", one of the postmodern philosophical approaches defined by Derrida (2012), different communities living in the world are forced to live in their own bubbles. In short, modern human, far beyond meeting in common spaces, communities, together with the groups they are characterized by, live their lives in ghettos where they affirm their existence by constantly "otherizing" the others through the social networks they have established with only those who are like them in the safe cocoons created. Despite opinions to the contrary, it is a first-hand reality of our times that there are significant differences between making an identity or a group visible or being aware of the existence of such an identity or group, and encouraging and promoting the creation of spaces where different communities can build social and cultural bridges with each other. "Homes", which in the past were spaces characterized by the connotations of a "warm" word like "nest" and where individuals with certain common values and habits led their lives together, are now defined in completely different terms. It is no coincidence that the concept of "living space" is defined as an area with the facilities of shopping malls, where you can establish ties and be valued only as long as you consume and spend, or that it evolves into a quality to create such a perception. As one of the compasses of sociocultural change, it is impossible for contemporary museums to remain indifferent to the waves of sociocultural transformation. For this reason, like the evolution of the concept of "home", the concept of museum has been defined with many different qualities and characteristics attributed by governments and societies throughout the course of history. Today, principles such as "inclusiveness and diversity" or "creating common spaces that foster communication between communities and cultures" which are often underlined and emphasized as being parts of the criteria and trends of contemporary museums, have found their way among the constituents of the up-to-date standards of museums especially because of the reformist 1320 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal social and cultural movements of the previous century. These concepts have been included in the contemporary museum definition because of difficult processes, painful social resistances and fractions, and have changed the traditional understanding and concept of the museum from scratch, thus becoming phenomena that has diverted and shaped postmodern museum practices. As a result of the imposition of today's lifestyle, museums, which are now identified with the concept of "shopping mall museum", are managed with an institutional structure like the administrative organization of international "fast food" restaurant chains. For this reason, most of the above-mentioned contemporary museum criteria which are of great importance for the creation of an environment of social harmony and tolerance remain on paper without being put into practice, or processes during which the speed and duration of an activity during these applications prevent the continuity of learning can be experienced. Moreover, in some largescale museums, the use of technology has become more of the goal itself than a means to an end, resulting in the satisfaction of individual’s own curiosity being elevated to the top of the list of museum experiences. Thus, the audience becomes more interested in the technological device that is supposed to make the presentation interactive than in creating bonds with the objects on display.For this reason, this study, which makes it possible to thoroughly examine the periods and spaces at which social movements and civil rights struggles changing the history of the world and becoming a touchstone by transforming the traditional understanding of art and the concept of the museum, focuses on evaluating the approaches of postmodern museums in the perspective of a micro-scale art museum. In addition to this, this research aims to answer the questions about how today's museums can benefit from the structure of these formations by being fascinated by the common spaces created organically in different art circles, without prescribed programs or calendars. Therefore, while examining one of the best examples of these spaces, the famous studio of Gertrude Stein who was recognized as an art expert in Parisian art circles in the beginning of the last century, this study had the chance to evaluate both the concept of contemporary museum through the definitions of micro-scale museums and the single artist museums in Turkey in the context of the mentioned criteria.Moreover, in this study, microscale museums are in focus since there are many examples and experiences showing that postmodern museum trends and practices, as explained in detail with examples above, sometimes lose their functionality in large-scale and international museums and are presented as part of their institutional identity for the sake of "political correctness". In line with this focus, it has been determined that Doğançay Museum, which is only one of the four single artist museums visited in Istanbul, organizes exhibitions and presentations with an awareness of 1321 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal contemporary museum trends, and tries to apply postmodern museum criteria within the limits of possibilities. On the other hand, the Adam Michiewicz Museum and the Ara Güler Museum generally emphasize postmodern presentation practices, while the Orhan Kemal Museum, by using traditional presentation techniques, displays an approach which is far from inclusiveness. During this study, another small-scale museum, the "Museum of Innocence" of the famous novelist Orhan Pamuk, which received the European Museum of the Year Award in 2014, was also visited. Although the Museum of Innocence did not become one of the subjects of this study due to its being based on fictional characters and plot, the important role of this museum in the development of new generation small-scale museums, especially in Turkey, is undeniable, both in terms of the originality of its collection and the presentation of objects. However, although the interior design of the museum building was impressively created in a way that emphasizes the presentation of objects with details that deepen the museum experience, the Museum of Innocence, like the other small-scale museums in the scope of the research, except the Doğançay Museum, is weak in terms of audience inclusiveness. Due to the architecture of the building, an elevator cannot be installed, so a viewer in a wheelchair can only visit the first floor, while the limited space of the museum is an obstacle to the creation of an interactive environment where intercultural exchange is encouraged, and any museum education can take place. While today's technology (film projectors, audio guides, etc.) is used only to add dimension to the presentation techniques and exhibition methods, the museum does not organize any activities that visitors can participate in and turn their museum visit into a personal experience, except for the copies of Orhan Pamuk's Museum of Innocence in various languages, the novel from which the museum’s fictional display was adapted, placed in the resting areas for the visitors to be able to read the sections where the objects on display are mentioned. To sum up, even the "Museum of Innocence", a small-scale museum with international recognition and relatively more opportunities, connections and importance, has difficulty in creating a contemporary perception of a "queer" museum that is interculturally and internationally dynamic and transitional, which the Steins created in the early 1900s by centring the energy of inclusive artistic production.Except for the "poetry tree" activity at the Adam Michiewicz Museum, none of the museums visited had any interactive activities that would involve the audience in one-on-one participation and thus support hands-on learning. In short, only one of these museums has tried to make the audience a part of the visit by designing only one activity. The fact that the Ara Güler Museum does not have an information brochure or booklet that can be understood by different national and international communities in different 1322 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal languages, using universal intercultural elements, certainly shows that it is one step behind the other museums in terms of inclusiveness. The fact that only Doğançay Museum has a welldeveloped website that is open to social interaction, and that it organizes educational activities and workshops makes it clear that the other three museums are not in active interaction with the audience.During these visits, it was found that micro-scale organizations, such as single artist museums in Istanbul, primarily lack sufficient financial resources and supporters. This is the primary reason preventing micro-scale museums from organizing more inclusive exhibitions and reaching different audiences. Nevertheless, setting up social media accounts that can be used effectively is an effortless, fast and cost-effective process nowadays. The need for large financial powers or powerful sponsoring companies to feed the social interaction created by these platforms with marketing strategies targeting different age groups and cultural communities, and thus to reach museum audiences, has considerably decreased. Therefore, these financial difficulties, which are also cited as the reason for the lack of audience interest in single artist museums, can actually be overcome in a quicker way with a properly utilized workforce and energy, thanks to the online establishment of connections and social networks similar to those that the Steins established in the first quarter of the 1900s by visiting art salons and various exhibitions in Paris.In short, the first step for today's micro-scale single artist museums to become places where the inclusive, diverse, cross-cultural, interdisciplinary and open atmosphere of Gertrude Stein's salon can be experienced will be the effective use of the right social media tools. Increasing interaction between individuals and communities using targeted marketing techniques and advertising methods will be the second important step, as it will lead to the recognition of the names, images and logos of these museums in different online groups. Gertrude Stein's studio became a common space of freedom across borders, where the art of the period was passed through communities, and where artistic and intellectual production was constantly nourished both individually and collectively. The fact that Gertrude Stein, the owner of the salon, the creator and supporter of this "queer" environment, who was seen as an authority on art and literature at the time, shared social and artistic developments, movements and changes with those who visited her studio and created discussions aligns with the definition of the contemporary museum educator. Therefore, one of the steps that today's micro-scale single artist museums can take to create the aforementioned dynamic and transitional environment is to work with a well-equipped museum educator to ensure that the audience transforms their museum visit into a meaningful experience. Gertrude Stein also opened the modest and homely walls of her studio, which she covered from one side to the other with 1323 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal original and the most widely discussed paintings of the period, to every viewer interested in art, even though it is now considered a traditional, object-oriented display technique. The fact that these valuable works of art were taken from the familiar exhibition halls and started to be exhibited in an authentic house-workshop with a composition focusing mainly on the "modern art theme" coincides with the logic of contemporary exhibition display that today's curators strive to create. It is a fact that the "walls" of the studio are the most advanced technological tool that could be used at the time for the display of the works; however, the fact that an authentic atmosphere where one-on-one discussions could be held with the artists who created the works in front of these walls was presented to the audience with a thematic exhibition display makes Stein's studio one of the pioneering spaces where the educational activities of contemporary museums are taking place. At this point, if today's micro-scale single artist museums adopt a similar vision and organize face-to-face or online "edu-tainment" oriented events using today's technology, they will provide an information flow that will strengthen the audience's bond with the objects exhibited, and thus, these museums will have taken a step to support the phenomenon of lifelong learning.To summarize, considering the suggestions above, the modeling and dissemination of the inclusive, diverse, intercultural, interdisciplinary atmosphere of Gertrude Stein's salon as a micro-museum is considered as a valuable effort for the postmodern museum concept. Moreover, the implementation of such a modeling is thought to contribute both to the cultural and artistic exchange that will take place in a more organic way and to the sustainability of micro-scale and large-scale museum practices in the long term, especially in the post-Covid period. Following the formation and development processes of micro-museums and supporting them with research will create spaces for sharing stories that are trapped in between due to dominant policies by supporting to open out the door to the diversity and polyphony of cultural exchange within national and international areas. 1324 VI.

Fitokimyasallar bitkilere rengini, lezzetini ve kokusunu veren bileşiklerdir. Bu bileşiklerin şifalı bitkilerin tıbbi özelliklerinden ve sağlık yararlarından büyük ölçüde sorumlu olduğu düşünülmektedir. Bununla birlikte fitokimyasallar aynı zamanda zehirli ve toksik kimyasalları da içermektedir. Bitki kaynaklı metabolitler ve şifalı bitkiler dünya çapında tüm kültürler tarafından uygulanmış ve birçok tıbbi ve farmakolojik amaç ile terapötik değerleri tarihsel olarak kanıtlanmıştır. Iğdır ilinde yaşayanların çoğu kırsal alanda yaşadığı için doğal bitkiler ile yakın ilişkide olup şifalı bitkileri gıda veya tıbbi amaçla kullanmaktadır. Geleneksel olarak kullanılan bitkilerin yan etkilerinin az olması veya hiç olmaması ve doğada çok fazla bulunması nedeniyle alternatif tedavi olarak kullanılmaktadır. Bitkisel ekstraktlar, köklerinden, yapraklarından veya çiçeklerinden elde edilenlerin yara iyileşmesini hızlandırıcı etkilere sahip olduğu bilimsel çalışmalarca gösterilmiştir. Bu ekstraktlar, antibakteriyel etkileriyle birlikte kollajen sentezini arttırma, yara iyileşmesinin proliferasyon fazını uyarıcı, fibroblastları stimüle edici, antimikrobiyal ve antioksidan özellikler sergilemektedir. Tıbbi bitkiler genellikle iyileşme sürecinin en az bir fazını etkilemekte ve yara iyileşmesi için uygun bir ortam olan nemli bir alan sağlamaktadırlar.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal PHYTOTHERAPEUTIC PLANTS COMMONLY USED IN WOUND CARE IN IĞDIR PROVINCE Abstract Traditionally since ancient times, parts of plants such as stems, leaves, roots, fruits, flowers and purified phytochemical compounds have been available for the treatment of various medical conditions. Phytochemicals are compounds that give plants their colour, flavour and smell. These compounds are thought to be largely responsible for the medicinal properties and health benefits of medicinal plants. However, phytochemicals also contain poisonous and toxic chemicals. Plant-derived metabolites and medicinal plants have been applied by all cultures worldwide and have historically proven their therapeutic value for many medicinal and pharmacological purposes. Since most of the people living in Iğdır province live in rural areas, they are in close contact with natural plants and use medicinal plants for food or medicinal purposes. Traditionally used plants are used as alternative treatment because they have few or no side effects and are abundant in nature. Herbal extracts, obtained from roots, leaves or flowers, have been shown by scientific studies to have accelerating effects on wound healing. These extracts exhibit antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, increasing collagen synthesis, stimulating the proliferation phase of wound healing, stimulating fibroblasts, along with antibacterial effects. Medicinal plants usually influence at least one phase of the healing process and provide a moist area, which is a favourable environment for wound healing. It was stated that herbal products such as Belhevis, Buğa tikanı, Camışgulağı, Gılıçotu, Horoz pipiği, Kötangoparan, Kuş eppeği and Öküzguyruğu can be effective and used for wound treatment among the people in Iğdır province. This study was written to give information about the properties of phytotherapeutic plants commonly used in wound care in Iğdır province. Keywords: Phytotherapeutıc, Wound Care, Iğdır 1329 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction Medicinal plants have been practised by all cultures worldwide and have historically proven their therapeutic value for many medicinal and pharmacological purposes (Kadri, 2023). Phytochemical compounds derived from medicinal plants are reported to achieve maximum efficacy with proven therapeutic potential in the treatment of recently emerging and chronic diseases (Kadri, 2023). Phytochemicals are compounds that give plants their colour, flavour and smell. Phytochemicals are compounds that give plants their colour, flavour and smell (Kong et al., 2021). Traditionally since ancient times, parts of plants such as stems, leaves, roots, fruits, flowers and purified phytochemical compounds have been available for the treatment of various medical conditions (Parthasarathy & Evan Prince, 2021). Phytochemicals are essential components of plants that reduce necrotic cell death, restore the antioxidant defence mechanism, limit oxidative stress and prevent tissue inflammation and mitochondrial dysfunction (Parthasarathy & Evan Prince, 2021). In contemporary society, there is an increasing trend towards the use of natural products and medicinal plants for the prevention and treatment of diseases. However, it is important to remember that not all natural products are harmless and their effectiveness must be evaluated through scientific research (Vardar, Mollahaliloğlu, & Öztaş, 2018). Since most of the people living in Iğdır province live in rural areas, they are in close contact with natural plants and use medicinal plants for food or medicinal purposes. Traditionally used plants are used as alternative therapies because they have few or no side effects and are widely available in natüre (Altundağ, 2009). Phytochemical compounds obtained from the roots, leaves or flowers of plants have been shown by scientific studies to have wound healing accelerating effects (Bedir & Turgut, 2021). Due to their positive effects on wound healing, plants are often used in holistic medicine (Sürme & Çürük, 2020). Wound Healing Wound healing is a complex physiological process involving highly organized cellular, humoral and molecular mechanisms (Tsourdi, Barthel, Rietzsch, Reichel, & Bornstein, 2013). Delayed wound healing represents a major challenge not only for the patient but also for the healthcare system in general. One of the many ways to overcome this challenge is to use herbal remedies and developments that have been widely used in folk medicine for centuries (Rajput, 2022). During the wound healing process, cells, growth factors and cytokines interact with each other to close the lesion (Parlar Köprülü, Mutlu, İpekçi, & Okur, 2022). This interaction process consists of haemostasis, inflammation, proliferative and remodelling stages as shown in Figure 1. (Miraj et al., 2023). The first stage is haemostasis, in which the coagulation cascade is 1330 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal activated and blood loss is prevented by the formation of a fibrin clot (Kavıyalakshmı & Mekala, 2021; Parlar Köprülü et al., 2022). The second phase is the inflammation phase, which begins after the injury has occurred and can last up to 6 days (Tsourdi et al., 2013). The onset of the inflammatory phase occurs with the secretion of proteolytic enzymes and proinflammatory cytokines from immune cells at the wound site (Varghese & Shinde, 2021). Inflammatory cells produce reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are found at higher levels in chronic wounds and burns. ROS prevent the entry of microorganisms and bacteria. In addition, foreign particles and tissue debris are removed by macrophages and neutrophils during the inflammatory phase (Mirhaj, Labbaf, Tavakoli, & Seifalian, 2022). The next phase is proliferation, which starts 4 days after injury and can last up to 14 days. In this phase, reepithelialisation and granulation tissue formation occurs (Varghese & Shinde, 2021). The final stage of wound healing is the remodelling (maturation) stage in which type III collagen is replaced by type I collagen (Park, Hwang, & Yoon, 2017; Ribatti & Crivellato, 2012). Figure 1. Shows the wound healing process schematically. (Mirhaj et al., 2022) Faz 1: Haemostasis, Faz 2: Inflammation, Faz 3: Proliferative, Faz 4: Remodelling For the treatment and management of wounds, some medicinal plants have been shown to be effective wound healers (Jarić et al., 2018). For example, Terminalia arjuna, a member of the Combretaceae family, commonly known as Arjuna in India, is a common plant that can be found all over India. It is used for healing wounds (Rajput, 2022). It is also a member of the Salvia officinalis (Lamiaceae) family, which grows widely in Iran and is popularly known as sage. It is stated to be effective in wound healing (Farahpour, Pirkhezr, Ashrafian, & Sonboli, 2020). In addition, the Aloe vera plant, which belongs to the Liliaceae family, has been used in many countries such as Greece, China and Mexico since B.C. It has been used traditionally since 1500. Showed that it can improve the wound healing process and reduce inflammation (Hekmatpou, Mehrabi, Rahzani, & Aminiyan, 2019). Many herbs are used as wound healing agents in Turkey (Fatma & Afife, 2019). In Iğdır province of Turkey, it is stated that herbal 1331 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal products such as Belhavıs, Buğa tikanı, Camışgulağı, Gılıçotu, Horoz pipiği, Kötangoparan, Kuş eppeği and Öküzguyruğu are effective and can be used for wound treatment (Table 1.).

Bağa yaprağı, Belhevis Plantago major, commonly known as Bağa yaprağı or Belhavis, is a widely used medicinal plant from the Plantaginaceae family (Altundağ, 2009; Najafian, Hamedi, Farshchi, & Feyzabadi, 2018; Bayrakdar & Keleş, 2024). Plantago major is a herbaceous perennial plant with leaves that grow in rosettes, are elliptic-oval in shape and have between 5 and 9 veins. The plant usually grows up to 15 cm in height, but can vary in size depending on the growing environment (Akbaş, 2019). Plantago major is a plant native to a large area of Europe and Asia, as well as North Africa and North America. Although Plantago species are widely recognised 1332 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal as weeds, they have been used as medicinal plants for centuries (Gonçalves & Romano, 2016). Plantago majör contains many active compounds such as flavonoids, polysaccharides, terpenoids, lipids, iridoid glycosides and caffeic acid derivatives and is used in the treatment of various diseases such as constipation, cough, wounds, infection, fever, bleeding and inflammation (Gonçalves & Romano, 2016). Plantago major has long been used as an immune modulating, anti-infective, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antiulcerogenic, antimicrobial, anticancer and antioxidant agent and has also been applied for wound healing purposes (Gonçalves & Romano, 2016; Nikaeen, Yousefinejad, Rahmdel, Samari, & Mahdavinia, 2020). It is stated by many studies that Plantago major leaves have long promoted wound healing and are still used in traditional medicine (Ghanadian et al., 2022; Gonçalves & Romano, 2016; Najafian et al., 2018; Nikaeen et al., 2020; Sırrı & Sırrı, 2020). In Iğdır province, the leaves are used externally in the treatment of boils, and also on acute and chronic wounds, green and fresh leaves are applied topically on the wound after slightly crushed and used as a wound healer. 2. Boğa dikeni, Buğa tikanı, Demir tikanı Eryngium billardieri Delar, popularly known as Boğa dikeni, Buğa tikanı and Demir tikanı, is a medicinal plant in the Apiaceae family. Eryngium billardieri Delar is a perennial plant and its stem can be more than one. It usually grows on rocky slopes, steppes and fallow fields. The parts of the plant used include the stem and above-ground parts. In Iğdır, the root is used for conditions such as haemorrhoids, sinusitis, colds, boils, snake bites and wound treatment, while the stem can be peeled and eaten as food and used as a wound healer in powder form (Altundağ, 2009). It is an important plant that grows worldwide, especially in Asia, Europe, Australia, North Africa and North and South America (Allafchian, Balali, Vahabi, & Jalali, 2022). Flavonoids, phytosterols, triterpenoid saponins, ecdysteroids, coumarin derivatives, polyacetylenes, phenolic acids and essential oils are the main phytonutrient components of Eryngium (Hajian-Maleki & Shams-Bakhsh, 2023; Heidari et al., 2023). Furthermore, the extract of this plant has demonstrated in the laboratory several biological activities against different cell lines of human tumours, including anti-inflammatory, antihyperglycaemic, antimicrobial, antifungal, and antioxidant effects (Allafchian et al., 2022). Extracts from the roots and above-ground parts of various Eryngium (Apiaceae) species are used worldwide as folk remedies for the treatment of various inflammatory diseases, scorpion bites, rheumatism, urinary tract infections, wound healing and sinusitis (Allafchian et al., 2022; Khani et al., 2021; Küpeli, Kartal, Aslan, & Yesilada, 2006; SIRRI & SIRRI, 2020). 1333 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 3. Camışgulağı Sedum telephium L., locally known as Camışgulağı, is a medicinal plant in the Crassulaceae family. It usually grows in stony, dry places and larch forests. In Turkey, it is also known as Camuskulağı, Manda kulağı, Yaraotu and çıban çiçeği. In Turkey, the leaves of the plant are generally used as a wound healer, in burns, in the treatment of boils and haemorrhoids. It is also used as food in the treatment of constipation.r (Altundağ, 2009). The Camışgulağı plant was widely used in ancient times in the treatment of many inflammatory skin diseases. The leaves (without the outer cuticle) were often applied topically to painful wounds, burns and eczema to speed healing and reduce inflammation and pain (Bonina et al., 2000; Cavero, Akerreta, & Calvo, 2013). Also in traditional medicine the leaves of this plant are known for their widespread use in the treatment of skin diseases (anti-inflammatory, keratolytic and analgesic activity). Moreover, it has been stated to heal burns, acne and wounds (Jovanović et al., 2017; Karunakaran, Jagathambal, Kumar, & Kolesnikov, 2020). In Iğdır province, the leaves are crushed and left on the wound and used as a wound healing agent. 4. Gılıçotu, Kılıçotu Plantago lanceolata, commonly known as Gılıçotu or Kılıçotu in Iğdır, is a plant belonging to the Plantaginaceae family. It is commonly found in roadside grasslands, meadows, pastures and green areas (Drava, Cornara, Giordani, & Minganti, 2019; Pol, Schmidtke, & Lewandowska, 2021). In Turkey, it is known by many different names such as nerve herb, sinirli herb, vein herb, veined herb, cut herb, wound herb, snakandili, snakanotu and vineyard leaf (Altundağ, 2009). The leaves of the plant are used in many countries for medicinal purposes in the treatment of diseases such as wound healing, inflammation, cancer, respiratory system disorder, blood circulation, reproductive system and digestive organs (Abate, Bachheti, Tadesse, & Bachheti, 2022; Drava et al., 2019; Pol et al., 2021). It is also used against insect and snake bites, toothache or as an immune enhancer (Bahadori et al., 2020; Pol et al., 2021).

It is found naturally in Western, Northern, Eastern, Southern and Central Anatolia regions of Turkey in the altitude range of 0-2100 m. (Kosa & Karaguzel, 2020). In Turkey it is also called Silene compacta, Kanlıbasıra grass, densely flowered weed, sticky plant (Çimen & Ekici, 2023; Külekçi & Bulut, 2016). The roots and 1334 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal above-ground parts of the plant have been used as infusion in diseases of the urinary bladder and biliary tract (Akdeniz, 2022; Boğa, 2017). In Iğdır, the leaves are crushed and applied externally as a wound healer. 6. Kötangoparan Centaurea glastifolia, popularly known as Kötangoparan, is a member of the Asteraceae family. Since the root of the plant is very hard and deep, it often breaks the tip of the sickle (sickle) when the herbs are mown, so the plant was named as Kötangoparan or kotankıran in the region. In addition, although it is generally known as prophet's herb in Turkey; it is also known by different local names such as Zerdali thorn, Shepherd's thor, Gökbaş, etc. The plant grows in meadows, rocky slopes, at altitudes between 1500-2500 m. It is distributed in Central and Eastern Anatolia (Altundağ, 2009; Altundağ, Altundağ, & Gürdal, 2009). Fresh flowers are known to be used against peptic ulcer in Turkey (Aksoy & Gönüz, 2007). In Iğdır, the leaves are crushed and applied externally to cuts as a blood stopper and to wounds as a wound healer. 7. Kuş eppeği Capsella bursa-pastoris, which is widespread worldwide, is a plant belonging to the Brassicaceae family. In our country, it is generally known as 'shepherd's purse' (Cha et al., 2017). It is also known among the people with names such as jingle grass, shepherd's bag, birdbird grass (Altundağ, 2009).

In Iğdır, the above-ground parts are crushed and applied externally to bleeding wounds as a blood stopper. 8. Öküzguyruğu Leonurus glaucescens, known as Öküzguyruğu herb, is a plant belonging to the Lamiaceae family. The plant has a long history of use in Asian, European and American folk medicine (Zhang et al., 2018). Grows on mountain slopes, from coastal slopes to riverbanks, on cliffs, along houses and roads (Kirillov et al., 2018). Traditionally, since ancient times, folk medicine has used a decoction of the above-ground part of the plant in the treatment of diseases of the heart, stomach and nervous system. In addition, tea and infusion of the plant are also used in the treatment of nervous system disorders, hypertension, epilepsy, tachycardia, gastrointestinal diseases, as a sleep aid, diaphoretic, laxative and anti-inflammatory agent (Sermukhamedova, 1335 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Sakipova, Ternynko, & Gemedzhieva, 2017). It is used in folk medicine in the Eastern Anatolia region of Turkey for cardiotonic and burn wounds (Kirillov et al., 2018). It is also used in East Asia for anti-gynaecological disorders and in Europe as a sedative (Zhang et al., 2018). In Iğdır, the root is boiled medicinally, and dough is made from the juice obtained and applied externally to inflamed wounds. Conclusıon In the literature, it is seen that there are many studies with phytotherapeutic plants related to wound care. In our research, it was observed that the phytotherapeutic plants that are traditionally widely used in wound care in Iğdır province are Belhavıs, Buğa tikanı, Camışgulağı, Gılıçotu, Horoz pipiği, Kötangoparan, Kuş eppeği and Öküzguyrğu. These plants are used in Iğdır as well as in other parts of Turkey and in many countries of the world. Although the part of the plants used and the way of use varies, it has been shown in the literature that these plants are used in wound healing. Studies on phytotherapeutic plants traditionally used in wound care in Iğdır are not sufficient. In this context, we believe that in vivo and invitro studies on these plants should be carried out and used in preclinical studies. 1336 VI.

It offers unprecedented processing power to tackle problems intractable for classical computers. At the core of this revolution is the quantum bit, or qubit.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INTRODUCTION Quantum computing is a groundbreaking field of technology that harnesses the laws of quantum mechanics to solve problems too complex for traditional computers. Unlike classical computers, which use bits as the smallest unit of data represented as either 0 or 1, quantum computers use quantum bits, or qubits, which can exist simultaneously in multiple states due to the principle of superposition (Cho et al., 2021; Gill et al., 2022). This capability, along with quantum entanglement and quantum interference, enables quantum computers to perform vast numbers of calculations at once, offering potential breakthroughs in fields such as cryptography, drug discovery, and complex system optimization. As this technology develops, it promises not only to speed up certain types of calculations dramatically but also to tackle challenges that are currently beyond our reach (Gill et al., 2022; Ozdenizci Kose et al., 2024). Developing applications that utilize quantum computing is not straightforward due to its complex nature. Quantum computing combines elements of quantum physics, mathematics, computer science, and engineering, and makes it a field that requires a broad range of expertise. The hardware used in quantum computing is particularly complex and sensitive to even small environmental changes, which means it requires careful control and specific strategies to manage errors and perform calculations accurately (Hevia et al., 2022; García de la Barrera et al., 2023; Dwivedi et al., 2024).Furthermore, developing software for quantum computers is not like creaing traditional software. It involves learning new programming languages and approaches specifically designed for quantum computing. Programmers also need to create special algorithms that can work with the quantum properties of the hardware. Currently, the available quantum computers, known as Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) devices, are still in the early stages of development (Weder et al., 2020; Sodhi et al., 2021; Weder et al., 2022; Serrano et al., 2022). They have limited capabilities and can make more errors than older, non-quantum computers.These challenges highlight the need for a well-organized and systematic approach to developing quantum software. Such an approach needs to be flexible enough to adapt as new advancements in quantum computing technology are made, ensuring that developers can continue to create effective and reliable quantum software as the field evolves. This structured development process is essential for overcoming the current limitations and fully tapping into the potential of quantum computing in the future (Weder et al., 2020; Weder et al., 2022; Dwivedi et al., 2024).The emerging field of Quantum Software Engineering seeks to address these challenges by establishing a lifecycle for the development of quantum applications. This lifecycle aims to provide a structured framework that guides the development 1343 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal process from conception to deployment, incorporating best practices, tools, and methodologies suited to the quantum domain. It encompasses everything from initial requirement analysis and design through to implementation, testing, deployment, and maintenance, considering the unique aspects of quantum computing. By formalizing these processes, the goal is to facilitate the creation of high-quality, efficient, and robust quantum software, enabling researchers, developers, and organizations to more effectively harness the power of quantum computing and contribute to its advancement.This paper aims to explore the Quantum Software Development Lifecycle (QSDLC), a framework that adapts and extends traditional software development methodologies to address the unique challenges and opportunities of quantum computing. Through an examination of each phase of the QSDLC, from analysis through to maintenance, this study highlights the differences, challenges, and innovative solutions inherent to quantum software development. By comparing classical and quantum software development practices, the paper sheds light on the need for new programming paradigms, tools, and techniques to fully leverage quantum computing's potential. Through an investigation of emerging tools and platforms, this work also provides insights into the current state and future directions of quantum computing applications. UNDERSTANDING QUANTUM SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT LIFECYCLE The QSDLC is structured into several distinct phases, each critical for the successful development of hybrid quantum applications (Weder et al., 2020; Weder et al., 2022; Dwivedi et al., 2024). These phases facilitate a systematic approach that spans from conceptualization to deployment and beyond. This section provides a conceptual description of each phase within the QSDLC, outlining their respective roles and importance in the lifecycle. (1) Conceptualization: This first stage focuses on problem identification and feasibility study. The development team idenntifies specific challenges that quantum computing could address, given its superior capability for certain computations over classical systems. A feasibility study then follows to evaluate the practicality of using quantum solutions, including the evaluation of current quantum technology and determining if quantum advantages can be realized.(2) Quantum Software Analysis: This phase involves gathering and analyzing the requirements for the quantum application. It includes collecting detailed specifications of what the quantum software needs to achieve, including both functional (i.e., what the software should do) and non-functional requirements (i.e., how the software should perform). Quantum Algorithm Mapping is also crucial at this stage in order to align identified requirements with suitable 1344 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal quantum algorithms or frameworks, or to identify the need for developing new quantum algorithms. (3) Quantum Software Design: In this phase, developers decide which parts of the application are best suited for quantum computing and which should rely on classical computing methods. Quantum-Classical Splitting is critical for optimizing performance and leveraging the unique advantages of quantum computing. The decision-making process is informed by the application's requirements and the current state of quantum hardware capabilities. Once the quantum-classical split is performed, the next step is to design the overall architecture of the application. This includes specifying the high-level structure, defining the components and their interactions, and outlining the data flow between quantum and classical parts. This includes outlining the quantum circuit designs, qubit allocations, and gate operations. Afterwards, the design stage advances into a more granular focus with low-level design that focus on the detailed implementation of quantum circuits, including specific gates, error correction techniques, and optimization for quantum hardware constraints. The design phase aims to create a blueprint that ensures the application is scalable, maintainable, and meets the defined requirements.(4) Quantum Coding: During implementation stage, the generated design blueprints are translated into executable code. This involves coding both the quantum algorithms and the classical software components. Quantum Coding is carried out using specialized Quantum Programming Languages. Alongside, classical integration is executed, wherein the classical components -designed to interact with or support the quantum operationsare developed and refined. This step is crucial to ensure a seamless integration between classical and quantum processing, and enables them to function together as a cohesive unit.(5) Quantum Software Testing: Testing in the QSDLC involves verifying both the individual quantum and classical components and their integration. This includes unit testing, integration testing, and end-to-end system testing. The goal is to ensure the application behaves as expected, performs efficiently, and is free from defects. Unit Testing is concerned with the smallest parts of the quantum application. It ensures that each individual quantum component, such as a specific gate or subroutine, operates correctly in isolation. This is vital in quantum computing, where the functionality of basic elements can have significant impacts on the overall system due to the entangled nature of quantum states. Integration Testing focus on how quantum and classical components interact with each other. Integration testing verifies that these diverse elements work together harmoniously under a variety of conditions. It is a critical step for hybrid systems where quantum and classical computing coexist and must interact without errors. System 1345 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Testing evaluates the system's performance, functionality, and behavior, not just in isolated parts or during interactions but as an entire operational unit. This testing can take place on actual quantum hardware, which provides the most realistic environment, or on high-fidelity simulators.(6) Deployment: This stage in quantum software development involves several crucial steps to ensure the application is ready for real-world operations. Initially, deployment planning focuses on where considerations such as the availability of quantum hardware and the specific operational environment are addressed. This preparation is essential for ensuring that all necessary resources are aligned and the software is optimized for the conditions it will face. Following this, the deployment execution phase begins, where the software is rolled out to its intended platform. Depending on the application's requirements, this could mean deploying to a cloud-based quantum computing service for scalability and accessibility, or directly to dedicated quantum hardware for enhanced security and performance. This comprehensive approach ensures that the transition from development to active use is seamless, allowing the software to start delivering practical value effectively.(7) Maintenance: This phase is a crucial part of the QSDLC which focuses on ensuring the application performs reliably over time. It involves constant monitoring of the application's performance and the health of the quantum environment. The software is regularly checked for issues, with logs and alerts set up to flag any problems. Maintenance also means updating and scaling the software to incorporate new advances in quantum algorithms and hardware, ensuring that the application remains up-to-date and can handle increased demands as quantum technology progresses.These phases are not strictly linear and may overlap or require iteration, reflecting the adaptive and exploratory nature of quantum application development. The QSDLC provides a structured framework that guides teams through the complexities of creating applications that leverage both quantum and classical computing. RECENT TOOLS AND PLATFORMS IN QUANTUM SOFTWARE ENGINEERING The quantum computing field includes a variety of tools and platforms that are popular among researchers, practitioners and developers. These tools focus on the different aspects of quantum computing, including algorithm development, simulation, and hardware interaction.

The landscape is rapidly evolving, with new tools and features being regularly introduced to advance quantum computing technology. 1347 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal CONCLUSION This study examined the fundamentals of QSDLC, as a comprehensive roadmap for crafting software for the emergent paradigm of quantum computing. Quantum computers have the potential to solve certain problems much quicker than today’s classical computers. The QSDLC offers a step-by-step framework that guides practitioners from the initial conception of a quantum software application through to its deployment and maintenance. It combines the new ways of quantum computing with the familiar methods of classical computing, and ensures that software is made in a careful and planned way.Future research in the QSDLC is expected to advance quantum computing significantly. Developing sophisticated quantum error correction methods, enhancing fault tolerance, and refining the interfaces between quantum and classical systems stand as pivotal challenges. Moreover, scaling quantum systems, advancing the design of quantum programming languages, and creating more intuitive software development kits (SDKs) will be essential for realizing the full spectrum of quantum computing's capabilities. These developments are anticipated to enhance the robustness of quantum computers and also facilitate their broader application across disciplines that could benefit from quantum computational power, such as cryptography, optimization, and complex system modeling. 1348 VI.

Prof. Dr. Busra OZDENIZCI KOSE (ORCID: 0000-0002-8414-5252) Gebze Technical University, Department of Management Information Systems Email:busraozdenizci@gtu.edu.tr Abstract Quantum computing stands on the threshold of a new era and promises to revolutionize our approach to computation and problem solving. At this point, the development of quantum software is so critical that it presents unique challenges and opportunities, particularly in the realms of testing and validation. Traditional software testing methodologies fall short when applied to quantum software due to its inherently probabilistic nature, the complexity of quantum states, and the entanglement phenomenon. These characteristics necessitate innovative approaches to ensure the reliability, correctness, and efficiency of quantum software. This paper aims to explore the multifaceted challenges associated with testing and validating quantum software. It focuses on the distinctive aspects of quantum computing that complicate standard testing practices, such as the no-cloning theorem and quantum decoherence. Furthermore, the paper sheds light on the current methodologies and tools developed specifically for quantum software testing, from quantum circuit simulators and error correction techniques to the testing frameworks that accommodate the probabilistic outcomes of quantum computations. Through an examination of these innovations, this paper contributes to a deeper understanding of the evolving field of quantum software development. It underscores the need for ongoing innovation in robust testing and validation practices to realize the potential of quantum computing technology. Keywords: quantum computing, quantum software testing, validation techniques, quantum algorithms, quantum error correction, software development challenges 1350 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INTRODUCTION Today, quantum computing represents a significant advancement that harnesses the principles of quantum mechanics to solve problems that are currently beyond the reach of classical computers. This advanced computing technology utilizes quantum bits or qubits, which unlike classical bits, can exist in multiple states simultaneously through superposition, and are interconnected through entanglement (Cho et al., 2021; Gill et al., 2022). This allows quantum computers to perform complex calculations at incredibly high speeds and with greater efficiency. The development of software for such complex systems is structured through the Quantum Software Development Lifecycle (QSDLC), which adapts traditional software development methodologies to meet the unique demands of quantum technology. The QSDLC guides developers from conceptualization through to deployment and maintenance, and addresses the specific challenges posed by quantum computing along the way (Weder et al., 2020; Weder et al., 2022; Dwivedi et al., 2024).Testing and validation play crucial roles for the development of any software, ensuring that the final product functions as intended and is free from defects. In the realm of quantum software development, these processes take on even greater significance due to the inherently complex and revolutionary nature of quantum computing (Ali & Yue, 2023; García de la Barrera et al., 2023). As quantum computing seeks to leverage the principles of quantum mechanics -such as superposition, entanglement, and quantum interference- the tasks of testing and validation become markedly more challenging. These principles enable quantum computers to perform calculations at unprecedented speeds and manage tasks that are infeasible for classical computers. However, they also introduce a unique set of challenges that traditional software testing methodologies are not designed to handle.The challenges in testing and validation for quantum software stem from several quantum-specific characteristics. This paper aims to examine the unique challenges that arise in the testing and validation of quantum software, driven by the inherent properties of quantum computing such as the no-cloning theorem and the phenomenon of quantum decoherence. These quantum-specific characteristics disrupt traditional testing methodologies, and requires a shift in how software validation is approached. The investigation extends to the current state of the art in quantum software testing methodologies and tools. By providing a comprehensive overview of these developments, the paper deepens the understanding of the current landscape of quantum software development and emphasize the critical role of continuous innovation in testing and validation strategies. This focus is essential for advancing the reliability and 1351 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal efficiency of quantum software and also for unlocking the transformative potential of quantum computing technologies. CHALLENGES IN TESTING AND VALIDATION OF QUANTUM SOFTWARE Testing and validation of quantum software introduce a set of unique challenges that stem from the foundational principles of quantum mechanics, significantly diverging from the established practices in classical software testing (Weder et al., 2020; Weder et al., 2022; Ali & Yue, 2023; García de la Barrera et al., 2023). These challenges include:(*) No-Cloning Theorem: This fundamental principle of quantum mechanics stipulates that it is impossible to create an identical copy of an unknown quantum state. In practical terms, this prohibits replicating exact testing conditions for quantum states, a method often used in classical software testing for identifying and fixing errors.(*) Quantum Decoherence: Decoherence occurs when quantum systems, highly sensitive to their surroundings, lose their quantum properties after interacting with their environment. This instability creates a challenge for testing, as it becomes difficult to maintain stable conditions for repeatable tests, which can impact the consistency and reliability of the results.(*) Measurement Disturbance: Measuring a quantum state inevitably alters that state. This phenomenon presents a significant challenge for quantum software testing, as the act of observing or measuring can change the software's behavior, complicating the processes of validation and debugging that rely on stable test conditions.(*) Probabilistic Nature of Quantum Computing: Quantum computing operates on probabilities, not certainties, which contrasts with the deterministic nature of classical computing. Since the outcomes of quantum algorithms are probabilistic, testing these algorithms involves statistical analysis rather than straightforward pass/fail checks. This means a large number of tests must be conducted to ensure the behavior of the software is correct with statistical confidence.(*) Error Rates and Fault Tolerance: The current generation of quantum hardware is prone to errors at a rate higher than that of classical hardware. Creating tests that can accurately identify and separate errors from correct quantum behavior is difficult. Furthermore, integrating quantum error correction into these tests introduces additional complexity and requires more resources. (*) Limited Availability of Quantum Hardware: There is a scarcity of accessible quantum computers, leading many developers to rely on simulators that can not always mimic the exact behavior of actual quantum hardware. This limitation poses a significant challenge in testing and validating quantum software to perform reliably under real-world operational conditions. (*) Complexity of Quantum Algorithms: Quantum algorithms are often highly complex, and incorporates advanced mathematics and logic that can be challenging to grasp and implement 1352 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal accurately. Testing these algorithms demands an extensive understanding of both quantum mechanics and computational principles, which can be an obstacle for testers who do not have a strong background in these specialized areas.(*) Lack of Standardized Testing Frameworks: Quantum computing is a rapidly evolving field, and there is a lack of established testing frameworks and methodologies specifically designed for quantum computing. Without these standards, developers might face inconsistencies in testing methods, and makes it hard to ensure the correctness and reliability of quantum programs. Developing these tools is crucial for advancing the field but requires overcoming the unique challenges mentioned above.These challenges highlight the need for innovative approaches to testing and validation in quantum software development. Addressing these issues is crucial for ensuring the reliability, correctness, and efficiency of quantum software, paving the way for the realization of quantum computing's full potential. METHODOLOGIES AND TOOLS FOR QUANTUM SOFTWARE TESTING To guarantee the reliability and accuracy of quantum software, a range of advanced testing methodologies is being developed (Nilsen, 2007; Merkel et al., 2013; Keith et al., 2018; Bantysh et al., 2021; García de la Barrera et al., 2023). These methodologies are designed to address the unique challenges presented by quantum computing:(*) Quantum State Tomography: This technique is utilized to deduce the exact state of a quantum system. By conducting a series of measurements on a collection of identically prepared quantum systems, researchers can infer the quantum state, even though it cannot be measured directly. This method provides a comprehensive understanding of the quantum state but can be resourceintensive and challenging to implement as the number of qubits increases.(*) Randomized Benchmarking: This technique offers a practical alternative by evaluating the overall fidelity of quantum gates without needing to identify every potential error. Through the application of random sequences of gates, this method estimates the average error rate across the entire system. It is particularly useful because it reflects how errors accumulate in a realistic computational setting with noise.(*) Quantum Process Tomography: Extending beyond state tomography, Quantum Process Tomography aims to characterize the full quantum process. Rather than just the final state, this technique aims to map out the transformation that the quantum state undergoes through the computational process. It is an extensive method that can provide deep insights into the behavior of quantum algorithms and the effects of quantum operations. 1353 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal (*) Monte Carlo Simulations: Traditionally used in fields like statistical physics and finance, Monte Carlo Simulations are a powerful tool for modeling the probabilistic nature of quantum systems. They use random sampling to predict how a quantum system might respond under various scenarios, helping to understand the influence of errors and environmental noise on a quantum system's behavior.Recent developments in testing tools have introduced innovative solutions that assist in the practical application of these methodologies, described as follows: • Integrated Quantum Development Environments (IDEs): These comprehensive software platforms merge the processes of writing, executing, and testing quantum code. They often feature visualization tools for quantum states and operations, which help in interpreting test outcomes. • Quantum Circuit Simulators: Simulators enable the testing of quantum circuit behavior on classical computers and offer developers a way to predict how their quantum algorithms will perform, even without direct access to quantum hardware. • Automated Testing Frameworks: These frameworks streamline the quantum software testing process. They utilize advanced algorithms to explore the extensive potential outcomes of quantum states, pinpoint possible errors and suggest optimizations. • Quantum Hardware Emulators: Emulators replicate the functionality of quantum processors, and provide a crucial testing tool for developers to see how their software would run on different quantum hardware setups. • Quantum Error Analysis Tools: With error rates being a critical factor in quantum computing, these tools are essential for examining the nature and frequency of errors in quantum operations. The insights gained are invaluable for refining algorithm design and enhancing software performance. In the advancing field of quantum computing, a range of specialized tools have been developed to facilitate the design, testing, and deployment of quantum software. For instance, IBM's Qiskit [https://qiskit.org] provides an extensive toolkit for analyzing and visualizing quantum circuits, as well as simulating them on classical hardware to anticipate their performance on actual quantum processors. Google's Cirq [https://quantumai.google/cirq] offers features for noise modeling and simulation, key for evaluating how quantum algorithms will fare in the noisy environments typical of today's quantum hardware. Microsoft has contributed with its Quantum Development Kit [https://docs.microsoft.com/quantum], which boasts full-state simulators capable of handling up to 30 qubits on standard servers, all while integrating seamlessly with 1354 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal the Visual Studio environment for testing and debugging.Rigetti's Forest [https://www.rigetti.com/forest] platform delivers a comprehensive set of tools, including noise and error modeling simulators, creating a testbed that mirrors the conditions quantum programs will encounter on real quantum hardware. Open-source software framework ProjectQ facilitates the running of quantum circuits on both simulators and actual quantum processors, emphasizing circuit optimization and error emulation. Lastly, Quantum++ [https://github.com/vsoftco/qpp] offers a C++ library dedicated to quantum computing and simulations, perfect for crafting and trialing novel quantum algorithms and exploring the realms of quantum computation. Each of these tools plays a vital role in the quantum software development ecosystem, and provides developers with the resources needed to navigate the complexities of quantum programming. CONCLUSION This study explored the complexities and unique challenges of testing and validating quantum software. By focusing on methodologies like Quantum State Tomography, Randomized Benchmarking, and Monte Carlo Simulations, alongside innovative tools such as Quantum Circuit Simulators and Quantum Development Environments, this study has illuminated the current landscape of quantum software testing. These approaches are crucial for addressing the unique properties of quantum mechanics, such as the no-cloning theorem, quantum decoherence, and the inherently probabilistic nature of quantum computing. The study underscored how traditional testing methods are inadequate without significant adaptations to accommodate the revolutionary characteristics of quantum computing.Future research should focus on enhancing the precision and efficiency of existing quantum testing methodologies and developing new tools to better accommodate the rapid advancements in quantum hardware. There is an increasing need for more robust quantum error correction techniques, improved frameworks for simulating quantum noise, and more accessible testing environments. Additionally, a deeper integration between theoretical quantum mechanics and practical software engineering practices will be essential for the next generation of quantum software developers. 1355 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EXAMINATION OF ADVANCED BREAD WHEAT GENOTYPES (Triticum aestivum L.) IN TERMS OF YIELD AND SOME TECHNOLOGICAL QUALITY CHARACTERISTICS ABSTRACT Wheat maintains its strategic importance because it is the basic food in human nutrition and its high adaptability in in different environments. The aim of the study was to identify lines that were superior to standard varieties in terms of grain yield and/or quality characteristics and to contribute to wheat breeding programs. The research was conducted in three replications according to the randomized block experiment design with 25 genotypes under the rainfed conditions of Diyarbakır province in the 2014-2015 production season. It was observed that there was statistically significant significance between genotypes at the p≤0.01 or p≤0.05 level in all examined characteristics. Heading time 170-184 days, plant height 85-120 cm, grain yield 499.3-748.1 kg.da-1, test weight 71.4-80.8 kg.hl-1 and thousand grain weight 29.9-40.4 g were varied. In the research; it was observed that G9, G13, G14 and G24 advanced stage lines were the earliest spiked genotypes under Diyarbakır province conditions. While G19 gave the highest grain yield per unit area, G1, G6, G9 and G13 lines attracted attention with their high grain yield. In technological quality features; it was determined that G1, G6, G8, G9, Pehlivan, G14, G19, G23, G24 and Adana-99 genotypes were prominent. Considering that bread wheat will be exposed to heat stress during the generative period in Diyarbakır province, the G9 and G13 advanced stage lines, which are found to be early and also highly productive, should be protected and the breeding processes should be continued. Additionally, it was concluded that G9, G14 and Pehlivan genotypes, which are at the forefront in terms of technological quality characteristics, can be used as genitors in bread wheat breeding programs.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Buğdayın kalitesi birçok faktörün etkisi altında şekillenmektedir. Kalite tarıma dayalı sanayinin ve tüketicinin arzu ettiği özelliklerin bütünü olarak değerlendirilmekte (Dziki and Laskowski, 2005) ve kullanım amacına bağlı olarak buğdaya geniş bir anlam yüklemektedir. Teknolojik kalite parametreleri olarak değerlendirilen hektolitre ve bin tane ağırlığı genel kalite kriterleri içerisinde önem arz etmektedir (Kün, 1996; Elgün ve ark., 2002; Ulucan & Atak, 2020). Dünyada ve ülkemizde tarla bitkileri içerisinde buğday stratejik bir öneme sahiptir. Ülke nüfusumuzun artışına paralel olarak üretimin artması için ıslah çalışmaları hızla devam etmektedir. Geçmişten günümüze başta ekmek olmak üzere buğday ürünleri Türk halkının ana besin kaynaklarından biri olmakla birlikte yıllık kişi başı>200 kg buğday tüketimi ile ülkemiz dünyada ön sıralarda yer almaktadır (Morgounov ve ark., 2016; Atak ve ark., 2021).

Bu çalışmada amaç, ileri kademe ekmeklik buğday hatlarını teknolojik kalite özellikleri yönüyle standart çeşitler ile kıyaslamak, üstün vasıflara sahip olanları belirlemek ve ıslah süreçlerini devam ettirmekti. 1359 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal MATERYAL VE METOT Araştırma, Diyarbakır merkez lokasyonunda yağışa dayalı şartlarda yürütülmüştür. Deneme materyalini 20 ileri kademe ekmeklik buğday hattı ve 5 standart çeşit oluşturmuştur. Tesadüf blokları deneme desenine göre tasarlanan deneme 3 tekerrürlü olarak kurulmuştur. Deneme parselleri; 6 sıra, sıra arası 20 cm, 6 m uzunluğunda ve ekim normu 450 tohum.m-2 yoğunluğunda tasarlanmıştır. Ekim sırasında 7.2 m2 olarak dizayn edilen parseller kardeşlenme dönemi sonunda başından ve sonundan 0.5 m kesilerek net 6 m2 bırakılmıştır. Tablo 2.

Fakat, yağışın aylar bazında dağılımı incelendiğinde düzensiz bir yağış dağılımı olduğu görülmektedir. Özellikle Eylül, Kasım ve Mart aylarında uzun yıllar ortalamasının çok üzerinde yağış gerçekleşmiştir (Tablo 3). Sıcaklık verileri incelendiğinde Kasım, Ocak, Mart ve Haziran hariç diğer aylarda sıcaklık değerlerinin uzun yıllar ortalamasının üzerinde olduğu belirlenmiştir. Özellikle haziran ayının serin geçmesi tane dolum döneminin uzamasına katkı sağladığı düşünülmektedir (Tablo 3). 1360 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Çalışmada, başaklanma süresi için ekim tarihinden her parselin 2/3’ü başaklanıncaya kadar geçen süre gün olarak belirlenmiştir. Bitki boyu için her parselden 10 bitki seçilmiş ve toprak seviyesinden en üst başakçığa kadar olan mesafe ölçülerek cm cinsinden tespit edilmiştir. Tane verimi için her parselde hasat ve harman işlemi tamamlandıktan sonra elde edilen ürün 0.001 g düzeyde hassas terazide tartıldıktan sonra elde edilen değer kg.da-1’a dönüştürülmüştür. Hektolitre ağırlığı için NID IM 550 cihazında tanede okuma yapılarak kg.hl-1 cinsinden belirlenmiştir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ortalamasının ise 175 gün olduğu belirlenmiştir. Mevcut materyalde G9, G13, G14 ve G24 genotipleri 170 gün süre ile en erkenci, Cemre (184 gün) çeşidi ise en geçci genotip olarak kayıt altına alınmıştır (Tablo 4). Başaklanma süresini Kendal ve ark. (2012) 108.5-114.5 gün, Abbas (2017) 110.90-146.65 gün, Koç & Aydoğan Çifci (2022) 142.25-149.75 gün olduğunu bildirmiştir. Çalışmamızda, daha uzun başaklanma sürelerinin gözlenmesi çevre koşullarının etkisine bağlanabilir.Ekmeklik buğday genotiplerine ilişkin bitki boylarının 85-120 cm arasında değiştiği ve deneme ortalamasının 105.1 cm olduğu belirlenmiştir. Çalışmada, Sagitario (85.0 cm) ekmeklik buğday çeşidinin en kısa ve Nurkent (120 cm) çeşidinin ise en uzun boylu olduğu gözlenmiştir (Tablo 4). Bitki boyu ile ilgili farklı çevrelerde yapılan çalışmalarda Aktaş (2010) 72.63-114.43 cm, Çifci & Doğan (2013) 83.15 ile 85.01 cm, Bozkurt ve ark., (2022) 56.6076.25 cm, Koç & Aydoğan Çifci (2022) 68.50-86.50 cm olduğu belirlenmiştir. Çalışmamızda elde edilen sonuçlar Aktaş ve ark., (2010)’nın sonuçlarına benzerdir.Çalışmada, tane veriminin 499.3-748.1 kg.da-1 arasında değiştiği, deneme ortalamasının 627.6 kg.da-1 olduğu tespit edilmiştir. G19 (748.1 kg.da-1) en yüksek verimli ve G21 (499.3 kg.da-1) en düşük verimli genotip olarak kayda alınmıştır (Tablo 4). Buğdayda birim alan tane verimini artırmanın yolunun farklı ıslah teknikleriyle genetik kapasiteyi genişletmenin yanı sıra verimi kısıtlayan unsurları minimum düzeye indirmeyle ilişkili olduğu vurgulanmıştır (Roth ve ark., 1984; Erdem & Sakin, 2023). Maksimum verime ulaşmanın yüksek verimli çeşitlerin tercih edilmesine ve doğru agronomik uygulamalara bağlı olduğu bildirilmiştir (Kaya ve ark., 2015; Erdem & Sakin, 2023).Hektolitre ağırlığı, un randımanını önemli seviyede etkileyen teknolojik kalite parametrelerinden biridir. İlaveten, tanenin şekline, boyutuna ve saydamlığına bağlı olarak farklılık göstermektedir. Mevcut materyalde hektolitre ağırlığının 71.4-80.8 kg.hl-1 arasında değişim gösterdiği ve deneme ortalamasının 76.3 kg.hl-1 olduğu belirlenmiştir (Tablo 4). Çalışmada, G9 (80.8 kg.hl-1) en yüksek ve G2 (71.4 kg.hl-1) en düşük hektolitre ağırlığını vermiştir. Bu bağlamda, G9 ekmeklik buğday genotipinde un randımanının daha yüksek olması beklenebilir. Hektolitre ağırlığına ilişkin olarak Aktaş ve ark., (2017) 78.0-85.1 kg.hl-1, Karaman (2020a) 75.0-80.2 kg.hl-1 arasında değişim gösterdiğini bildirmiştir.Bin tane ağırlığı, genetik yapının yanı sıra önemli düzeyde çevre faktörlerinin etkisi altındadır. İlaveten, bin tane ağırlığı da un randımanını etkilemektedir. Bin tane ağırlığının 29.9-40.4 g arasında farklılık gösterdiği ve deneme ortalamasının 34.4 g olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Pehlivan (40.4 g) ekmeklik buğday çeşidi en yüksek bin tane ağırlığına sahip olurken, G8 (29.9 g) en düşük bin tane ağırlığını vermiştir (Tablo 4). Bin tane ağırlığı kalıtım ve ekolojinin etkisi altında farklılık göstermekle ile beraber bin tane ağırlığının Aydın ve ark. (2007) 32.4- 43.2 g, Metin (2019) 1362 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 37.28-37.29 g, Bozkurt ve ark., (2022) 30.60-41.55 g, Koç & Aydoğan Çifci (2022) 26.9636.25 g farklılık gösterdiğini tespit etmiştir. 3.1.GGE Biplot Tekniğinde Genotip-Özellik İlişkisinin Vektörler İle Yorumlanması Araştırmada; PC1 %35.98, PC2 %29.76 ve PC1+PC2 %65.74 oranında incelenen özellikler yönünden genotipler arasındaki varyasyonu açıklamıştır (Şekil 1). Biplot analizinin vektörler ile yorumlanmasında özellikleri temsil eden vektörlerin yönü, aralarındaki açı ve uzunluğu dikkate alınarak özellikler arasındaki ilişki ve genotipler arasındaki varyasyon açıklanabilir (Yan & Tinker, 2006; Karaman, 2020b). Bu bağlamda, tane verimi ile bin tane ve hektolitre ağırlığı arasında güçlü pozitif korelasyon olduğu belirlenmiştir. Başaklanma süresi ile bitki boyu arasında pozitif korelasyon olduğu gözlenmiş olmakla beraber tane verimi ve hektolitre ağırlığı ile negatif korelasyon olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Şekil 1. Genotip-özellik ilişkisinin vektörler ile sunumu Ayrıca, başaklana süresi ve bitki boyu yönünden genotipler arasındaki varyasyon yüksek, bin tane ve hektolitre ağırlığında varyasyonun düşük olduğu söylenebilir (Şekil 1). Başaklanma süresi uzadıkça tane veriminin ve hektolitre ağırlığının düşmesi Diyarbakır ili koşullarında sıcaklık stresine maruz kalma ile açıklanabilir. G1, G6, G13, G14, G19 tane veriminde, G1, G6, G9, G14 ve G23 bin tane ağırlığında, G9, Pehlivan, G14 ve G23 hektolitre ağırlığında öne çıkan genotipler olmuştur (Şekil 1).Korelasyon analizi sonuçlarına göre tane verimi ile hektolitre (r=0.2945*) ve bin tane ağırlığı (0.2383*) arasında pozitif korelasyon olduğu belirlenmiştir. 1363 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal İlaveten, bin tane ağırlığı ile hektolitre ağırlığı (0.2304*) arasında pozitif korelasyon olduğu tespit edilmiştir (Tablo 5).

SONUÇLAR Çalışmada, erkenci ve aynı zamanda tane verimi ve/veya kalite bakımından kontrol çeşitlerden daha üstün olan birçok ileri kademe hattın olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Üstün nitelikli olduğu belirlenen ileri kademe bu hatların aynı zamanda ortalama bir bitki boyuna (95-110 cm) sahip olması saman verimi açısından da kıymetlidir. Bu bağlamda; G1, G6, G9, G13, G14, G23 ve G24 ileri kademe hatlarının geleceğe dönük ümit var hatlar olabileceği, aynı zamanda bu hatların ıslah programlarında ebeveyn olarak kullanılabileceği sonucuna varılmıştır. 1364 VI.

Nohut tanesinin besin içeriği bakımından zengin olması insan beslenmesinde büyük önem arz etmektedir. Çalışmada amaç, bazı nohut genotiplerini tane verimi, morfolojik ve fizyolojik özellikler bakımından incelemekti. Deneme, Muş ilinin yağışa dayalı koşullarında tesadüf blokları deneme desenine göre beş tekrarlamalı olarak yürütüldü. İncelenen özelliklerden ana dal sayısı hariç kalan tüm özelliklerde genotipler arasında p≤0.01 veya p≤0.05 düzeyinde önemli farklılıklar olduğu belirlendi. Çalışmada, tane verimi 100.2-149.2 kg.da-1, bitki boyu 25.0-30.9 cm, ilk bakla yüksekliği 8.9-11.8 cm, bakla sayısı 17.3-27.6 adet.bitki-1, çiçeklenme süresi 50.0-53.2 gün, bitki örtüsü sıcaklığı 33.1-34.1 oC, normalize edilmiş vejetasyon farklılık indeksi 0.446-0.632 arasında farklılık gösterdi. Zuhal nohut çeşidi en yüksek tane verimine sahip olmakla beraber en düşük bitki örtüsü sıcaklığı ve en yüksek normalize edilmiş vejetasyon indeksi değerini verdi. Bitki örtüsünü serin tutan ve aynı zamanda iyi biyomasa sahip genotiplerin yüksek tane verimi verdiği gözlenmiştir. Korelasyon analizi sonuçlarına göre tane verimi ile bitki boyu (r=0.5675**), bakla sayısı (r=0.8213**) ve normalize edilmiş vejatasyon farklılık indeksi (0.9344**) arasında pozitif ve önemli ilişki olduğu belirlendi. Zuhal nohut çeşidinin ebeveyn, bitki örtüsü sıcaklığı ve normalize edilmiş vejatasyon indeksinin seleksiyon kriteri olarak ıslah programlarında kullanılması faydalı olacaktır. İlaveten, çalışmanın birkaç yıl ve/veya lokasyonda tekrar edilmesinin ise sonuçların kesinliği yönünden ihtiyaç olduğu düşünülmektedir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Nohut, verim, morfoloji, fizyoloji 1367 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EVALUATION OF SOME CHICKPEA VARIETIES IN TERMS OF MORPHOLOGICAL AND PHYSIOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS ABSTRACT Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) ranks among the edible legumes in the world and in Türkiye in terms of cultivation area and production amount in front of row. The rich nutritional content of chickpeas is of great importance in human nutrition. The aim of the study was to examine some chickpea genotypes in terms of grain yield, morphological and physiological characteristics. The experiment was carried out with five replications according to the randomized experiment blok design based of rainfed conditions in Muş province. It was determined that there were significant differences between genotypes at the level of p≤0.01 or p≤0.05 in all characteristics examined, except for the number of major branches. In the study, grain yield 100.2-149.2 kg.da1 , plant height 25.0-30.9 cm, first pod height 8.9-11.8 cm, number of pods 17.3-27.6 pcs.plant1 , flowering time 50.0-53.2 days, canopy temperature 33.1-1. 34.1 oC, normalized difference vegetation index 0.446-0.632 between were changed. Zuhal chickpea variety was the highest grain yield, but also the lowest canopy temperature and the highest normalized difference vegetation index value. It has been observed that genotypes that keep the vegetation cool and also have good biomass give high grain yield. According to the correlation analysis results, it was determined that there were a positive and significant relationship between grain yield and plant height (r=0.5675**), number of pods (r=0.8213**) and normalized difference vegetation index (0.9344**). It would be useful to use the parent, canopy temperature and normalized difference vegetation index of the Zuhal chickpea variety as selection criteria in breeding programs. Additionally, it is thought that it is necessary to repeat the study in several years and/or locations in order to ensure the accuracy of the results.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Nohut (Cicer arietinum L.), dünya genelinde insan ve hayvan beslenmesinde kullanılan önemli yemekli tane baklagillerden biridir. Türkiye’de nohut ekim alanı 518 bin hektar, üretimi 630 bin ton ve tane verimi ise 122 kg/da’dır. Bu veriler doğrultusunda nohut Türkiye’de en önemli yemeklik tane baklagillerden biri olma potansiyelini korumaktadır (FAO, 2021). Nohutta tane besin değeri yönünden %16.4-31.2 protein, %1.5-6.8 yağ, %38.1-73.3 karbonhidrat ve %1.69.0 selüloz içermektedir. Protein kapsamına bakıldığında insan beslenmesinde kıymetli olan amino asitlerce (lysine, isoleucine ve leucine) zengin olduğu söylenebilir. Fakat, methionine, cystine ve tryptophan bakımından fakirdir (Şehirali, 1988; Doğan ve ark., 2015). Nohutta bitki boyu, bitkide dal sayısı ve bitkide bakla sayısı gibi özellikler birim alan tane verimi üzerinde etkili olan faktörlerdir (Tosun ve Eser, 1975; Açıkgöz ve Kıtıkı, 1994; Düzdemir ve ark., 2007). Tarla bitkilerinin yetiştiriciliğinde toprakta su miktarı azaldıkça stomaların kapanmasına bağlı olarak yaprak sıcaklığının arttığı ve hava sıcaklığından daha yüksek sıcaklıkların görülebileceği, bu bağlamda bitki örtüsü sıcaklığının bitkilerin tarlada yetiştirilme performansıyla doğrudan ilişkili olduğu vurgulanmıştır (Reynolds ve ark., 1994; Başdemir ve Yıldırım). Bitki örtüsü ile ilgili sıcaklık ölçümlerinin verimle en güçlü korelasyonu yüksek sıcaklık problemi olmakla birlikte su kısıtlılığının olmadığı şartlarda verdiği bildirilmiştir (Reynolds ve ark., 1994; Başdemir ve Yıldırım). Çalışmanın amacı; tane verimi ile bazı verim komponentleri, morfolojik ve fizyolojik özellikler arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemektir. 2.MATERYAL VE METOT Araştırma, Muş ilinin yağışa dayalı koşullarında 2022 yılı nohut yetiştirme sezonunda yazlık ekim koşullarında yürütülmüştür. Araştırma materyalini Aksu (Orijini: Doğu Akdeniz Geçit Kuşağı Tarımsal Araştırma Enstitüsü Müdürlüğü), Aslanbey (Orijini: Doğu Akdeniz Geçit Kuşağı Tarımsal Araştırma Enstitüsü Müdürlüğü) ve Zuhal (Orijini: Karadeniz Tarımsal Araştırma Enstitüsü Müdürlüğü) çeşitleri ile 1 yerel (Orijini: Muş ili) nohut çeşidi oluşturmuştur. Denemede; her parsel 4 sıra, sıra arası 30 cm, parsel uzunluğu 4 metre uzunluğunda ve ekim normu 50 tohum.m-2 yoğunluğunda ve deneme deseni tesadüf blokları deneme desenine göre 5 tekerrürlü olarak tasarlanmıştır. Yabancı otlar ile mücadele ihtiyaç dahilinde el ile sökülerek temizlik yapılmıştır. Ekimde toplam 4.8 m2 olan parselin sağından, solundan birer sıra ve başından, sonundan 0.5 m kesildikten sonra geriye kalan 1.8 m2 üzerinden hasat yapılmıştır. Hasat işlemi 8 Ağustos 2022 yılında, harmanlama ise 09-30 Ağustos 2024’te tamamlanmıştır. 1369 VI.

Eksik olan bitki besin elementi ihtiyacını tamamlamak için ekim ile beraber saf madde üzerinden 6 kg fosfor (P2O5) ve 2.5 azot (N) verilmiştir. Çalışmada, üst gübre uygulaması yapılmamıştır. Şekil 1. Muş İlinin 2022 nohut yetiştirme sezonu ve uzun yıllar yağış miktarı (mm) Muş ilinde gerçekleşen yağış miktarı incelendiğinde, 2022 nohut yetiştirme sezonunda Mayıs ayı hariç diğer aylarda uzun yıllar ortalamasının altında yağış olduğu gözlenmektedir. Mayıs ayında daha yüksek yağış olması nohut çıkışlarının homojen olmasına katkı sağladığı düşünülmektedir (Şekil 1).Sıcaklık değerlerine bakıldığında Mayıs ayı hariç geriye kalan tüm aylarda daha yüksek sıcaklıkların yaşandığı anlaşılmaktadır. Bu durum, vejetasyon süresinin kısalmasına bağlı olarak tane dolum süresinin beklenenden daha kısa sürmesine sebep olmuş ve nohutta birim alan tane verimini olumsuz etkilediği düşünülmektedir (Şekil 2). 1370 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 2. Muş İlinin 2022 nohut yetiştirme sezonu ve uzun yıllar sıcaklık değerleri (oC) 2022 yılı nohut yetiştirme sezonu yağış ve sıcaklık ekseninde değerlendirildiğinde olağan olmayan bir sezonun yaşandığı söylenebilir.Araştırmada, tane verimini belirlemek için parsel bazında kenar tesirleri devre dışı bırakıldıktan sonra kalan kısım hasat edilmiş ve 0.001 seviyede hassas terazide tartılarak elde edilen değer kg.da-1’a dönüştürülmüştür. Bitki boyu, ilk bakla yüksekliği, ana dal sayısı ve bakla sayısı hasat öncesinde her parselde 10 bitki üzerinde alınan gözlemlerin ortalaması alınarak belirlenmiştir. Çiçeklenme süresi için ekimden her parselin %50’si çiçekleninceye kadar geçen süre gün olarak hesaplanmıştır. Bitki örtüsü sıcaklığı ve normalize edilmiş vejetasyon farklılık indeksi için gözlemler parsel bazında %50 bakla bağlama döneminde alınmıştır. 3.ARAŞTIRMA VE BULGULAR Araştırmada, bitkideki ana dal sayısı (ADS) hariç tüm özelliklerde genotipler arasında önemli düzeyde varyasyon olduğu belirlenmiştir (Tablo 2). Çalışmada tane verimi 100.2-149.2 kg.da1 arasında değişim göstermiş ve deneme ortalamasının 129.5 kg.da-1 olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Zuhal (149.2 kg.da-1) nohut çeşidi en yüksek birim alan tane verimi ile ilk sırada yer almıştır (Tablo 2). Birim alan tane verimi ile ilgili farklı çevrelerde yapılan çalışmalarda Biçer ve Anlarsal (2004) 121.5-166.6 kg.da-1, Düzdemir ve ark. (2007) 94.9-153.1 kg.da-1, Mart ve ark.

Ortalama: genel ortalama, ad.bit-1: adet.bitki-1Bitki boyunun 25.0-30.9 cm arasında farklılık gösterdiği ve bitki boyuna ilişkin deneme ortalamasının 29.1 cm olduğu gözlenmiştir. Zuhal (29.6 cm) nohut çeşidinin en uzun, yerel (25.0 cm) çeşidin ise en kısa boylu olduğu görülmüştür (Tablo 2). Bitki boyunu; Düzdemir ve ark. (2007) 35.7-44.3 cm, Yalçın ve ark. (2018) 38.2-41.9 cm, Ercan ve ark. (2019) 30.5-47.4 cm, Demirci ve Bildirici (2020) 39.0-48.3 cm olduğunu belirlemiştir. Çalışmada, çeşitlere ait bitki boylarının genel olarak kısa kalmasının yazlık ekim sebebiyle vejetasyon süresinin kısa olmasından kaynaklandığı düşünülmektedir.İlk bakla yüksekliğinin 8.9-11.8 cm arasında değiştiği, yerel çeşit hariç tüm çeşitlerin aynı grupta yer alarak benzer değerler verdiği belirlenmiştir. İlk bakla yüksekliği dikkate alındığında yerel çeşit hariç tüm çeşitlerin makinalı tarıma uygun olduğu söylenebilir (Tablo 2). İlk bakla yüksekliğinin Karakan Kaya (2014) 24.4-35.1 cm, Dinç (2014) 19.1-25.3 cm, Demirci ve Bildirici (2020) 28.8-38.8 cm arasında değişim gösterdiğini belirlemiştir.Bitkide ana dal sayısının 2.4-2.6 adet arasında değiştiği, çeşitler bazında elde edilen değerlerin benzer olduğu ve istatistiki açıdan fark olmadığı tespit edilmiştir (Tablo 2). Ana dal sayısı ile ilgili Kaçar ve ark.

(2004) 6.5-18.4 adet.bitki-1, Dinç (2014) 5.5-8.3 adet.bitki-1, Demirci ve Bildirici (2020) 6.9-13.0 adet.bitki-1 olduğunu tespit etmiştir (Tablo 2).Çiçeklenme süresinin 50.0-53.2 gün ve 1372 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal deneme ortalamasının 51.7 gün olduğu gözlenmiştir. Çalışma, yazlık ekim koşullarında yürütüldüğünden dolayı çiçeklenme süreleri kısa olmakla beraber yerel çeşit en erken ve Zuhal çeşidi ise en geç çiçeklenen nohut çeşidi olmuştur. Çiçeklenme süresinin Uzun ve ark. (2012), 57.5- 65.5 gün, Demirci ve Bildirici (2020) 47.3-53.6 gün olduğunu vurgulamıştır (Tablo 2). Bitki örtüsü sıcaklığı yönünden nohut çeşitleri arasında istatistiki açıdan önemli farklılıklar olduğu belirlenmiştir. Denemede, bitki örtüsü sıcaklığının 33.1-34.1 oC aralığında ve deneme ortalamasının ise 33.5 oC olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Çalışmada, Aksu çeşidi (33.1 oC) bitki örtüsünü en serin tutan çeşit olmuştur (Tablo 2). Bitki örtüsünü serin tutan genotiplerin kuraklık stresinin yaşandığı koşullara daha toleranslı olduğu, su stresine ve kuraklığa karşı tolerant genotip geliştirmede bitki örtüsü sıcaklığının seleksiyon unsuru olabileceği bildirilmiştir (Blum ve ark., 1989).Birim alandaki yeşil aksamın yoğunluğu hakkında fikir veren normalize edilmiş vejatasyon indeksi (NDVI) değerinin 0.446-0.632 aralığında ve deneme ortalamasının 0.573 olduğu gözlenmiştir (Tablo 2). Çalışmada tane verimi sıralaması ile NDVI sıralamasının aynı olduğu belirlenmiştir. Bu durum NDVI ile tane verimi arasında önemli bir ilişki olduğunu göstermektedir. Geçit Kuşağı Tarımsal Araştırma Enstitüsü Müdürlüğü deneme alanında nohutun tane doldurma döneminde yapılan NDVI ölçümlerinde 0.60-0.71 arasında değerler elde edilmiştir (Alkan, 2024). Çalışmamızda daha düşük değerlerin elde edilmesinin çeşit ve ekolojik faktörlerden kaynaklandığı düşünülmektedir. Tablo 3.

Ayrıca, NDVI’nın BS (0.8456**) ve ÇS (0.496*) ile pozitif ilişkili olduğu tespit edilmiştir (Tablo 3). NDVI’nın BS ile pozitif ilişkili olması nohut ıslahında tane verimi odaklı yapılacak olan seleksiyonlarda önem arz etmektedir. 1373 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 4. SONUÇLAR Araştırmada, tane verimi ile morfolojik ve fizyolojik özellikler arasında pozitif ilişki olduğu belirlenmiştir. Bitki örtüsünü serin tutan genotiplerin yüksek normalize edilmiş vejetasyon farklılık indeksi değeri verdiği ve aynı genotiplerin tane verimi bakımından öne çıktığı tespit edilmiştir. Korelasyon analizi sonuçlarına göre tane verimi ile verim komponentlerinden bakla sayısı, morfolojik özelliklerden bitki boyu ve fizyolojik özelliklerden normalize edilmiş vejetasyon farklılık indeksi arasında olumlu ilişki olduğu belirlenmiştir. Zuhal nohut çeşidinin incelenen özellikler yönünden ideal çeşit olması sebebiyle ıslah programlarında genitor olarak, normalize edilmiş vejetasyon farklılık indeksi ve bitki örtüsü sıcaklığı özelliklerinin seleksiyon kriteri olarak kullanılabileceği sonucuna varılmıştır. 1374 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal PRODUCTION OF CARBON-BASED MATERIALS FROM WALNUT AND PEANUT BIOMASS Abstract The research and development of biomass-based carbon materials is extremely important for environmental sustainability and the exploration of renewable energy sources. In particular, waste biomass sources have great potential for the production of carbon-based materials from natural resources such as walnut hulls and peanut shells. Crop wastes such as walnut hulls and peanut shells can often cause environmental problems before they are utilized. However, these waste sources can be converted into carbon-based materials through appropriate processes and used in various industrial applications and environmental remediation projects. Carbon-based materials offer potential in many fields due to their high surface area, excellent adsorption properties and thermal conductivity. In this study, the potential for the production of carbonbased materials from biomass sources such as walnut shells and peanut shells was investigated. First of all, dry walnut and peanut shell biomasses were collected, crushed and sieved to a size of less than 75 μm after grinding. The reduced and sieved biomasses were subjected to carbonization process in the presence of iron-containing catalyst in a muffle furnace at the specified temperature and time. Carbonized samples were cooled and collected. The carbonbased materials obtained at the end of the carbonization process were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometry (FTIR) and Raman analysis. The results of XRD, FTIR and Raman analyses reveal that the carbonization process of the lignocellulosic biomass was successful. These analyses show in detail the structural changes of the feedstock and the progress of carbonization. This research demonstrates the potential of recycling waste biomass resources such as walnut shells and peanut shells for the production of carbon-based materials. The production process of these materials represents an environmentally sustainable and economically efficient approach, while at the same time responding to various industrial needs. Therefore, the research and development of biomassbased carbon materials is expected to make a significant contribution to the development of future green and sustainable technologies.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction Biomass is a renewable, abundant and cheap resource and its conversion into fuel, chemical and material precursors is of great importance to alleviate the energy crisis by reducing overreliance on fossil resources, reduce environmental pollution and promote sustainable development (Baweja & Jeet, 2019). Recently, there is a high proportion of agricultural waste generated globally that is inefficiently used and cannot be recycled. These wastes can be considered as a viable resource that can impact environmental management. Furthermore, the utilization of biomass resources is thought to enable the use of less toxic reagents during the production phase, as well as adding value to agricultural by-products and reducing global dependence on petroleum-based feedstocks (Çavuş at al., 2022).In this study, it was aimed to investigate the potential of producing carbon-based materials from walnut shell and peanut shell, which are waste biomass sources. The obtained carbon-based materials were characterized by XRD, FTIR and Raman analysis. Materials and Methods Dried walnut shells were obtained from Çorum region and dried peanut shells were obtained from Osmaniye region Dried walnut and peanut shell biomasses were collected, crushed, ground and sieved to a size of less than 75 μm. The sieved biomasses were subjected to carbonization in the presence of iron-containing catalyst in a muffle furnace at 350°C. Carbonized samples were cooled and collected. The carbonized products obtained from dry walnut and peanut shell biomasses were named CC1 and CF1, respectively. Findings and Discussion The synthesized samples were characterized by XRD, FTIR and RAMAN analysis. The phases of the biomasses and carbonized samples were observed by XRD patterns (Figure 1). Compared to the biomasses, the characteristic peaks of the prepared CC1 and CF1 carbonized products become more pronounced, indicating that the carbonization process only consumes impurities, but does not destroy the “core” structure of the biomasses. XRD spectra obtained from the crystal phase models of biochar (Figure 1) showed the presence of a peak indicating the formation of the intact structure of carbonaceous materials (Assirey & Altamimi, 2021). As shown in Figure 1, the XRD pattern of the prepared CC1 and CF1 exhibited a diffraction peak (2θ=14°), indicating that the prepared carbon-based material has an amorphous carbon composed of aromatic carbon layers. This result clearly shows that under the process condition of carbonization and activation, it gives a carbonaceous structure composed of aromatic carbon layers (Wang, at al., 2020). After the carbonization process, it is seen that the peak at 2θ= 16.3° 1380 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal shifted to 2θ= 14° and sharpened and also the peak between 2θ= 21.9-22° broadened and a new peak was formed around 2θ= 25°. Figure 1. XRD diffractograms of biomass wastes and carbon-based materials obtained from these wastes FT-IR analysis of walnut and peanut wastes and carbon-based materials obtained from these biomasses is shown in Figure 2. It is seen that the broadband absorption peak is at 3700-3000 cm-1, indicating the presence of hydroxyl group (OH). This peak was found to be broadened in CC1 and CF1 samples while it was strong and narrow in biomasses. The absorption peak observed at 2923 cm-1 in biomasses indicates the presence of aliphatic C-H vibration peaks originating from sp3-hybridized carbon atoms. It is observed that the intensity of this peak completely disappears in CC1 and CF1 samples (Melese at al., 2020). The bands at 1040 cm-1 attributed to aromatic C-O almost disappeared, while the C=C peak at 1610 cm-1 and the C=O peak at 1708 cm-1 appeared. All of these observations point to carbonization of lignocellulosic biomass (Wang at al., 2020). 1381 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Figure 2. FT-IR spectra of biomass wastes and carbon-based materials obtained from these wastes Figure 3 shows the Raman spectra of the respective G and D bands of carbon-based materials derived from various biomass wastes. One of the leading indicators of carbon-based material formation is the characteristic peaks seen in Raman spectroscopy. Raman spectra of carbon-based materials are regularly characterized by two characteristic bands, the D-band and the G-band. The D peak is usually located around ~1350 cm-1 and arises due to point defects in the planar structure. This band corresponds to sp3 carbon atoms of disordered or defective carbons. The G band corresponds to the in-plane stretching vibration of sp2 hybridized C atoms in a two-dimensional hexagonal lattice and appears around ~ 1580 cm-1 (Li at al., 2016). On the other hand, XRD diffractograms support the Raman analysis by showing the formation of partially turbostratic structures with assigned peaks. In our study, when all samples are evaluated within themselves, it is seen that only D and G bands belonging to carbon-based material-like structures appear. 1382 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Figure 3. Raman spectra of biomass wastes and carbon-based materials obtained from these wastes Conclusion and Recommendations Carbon-based materials were successfully obtained from walnut shell and peanut shell biomasses. XRD diffractograms, Raman and FTIR spectra of the prepared biomasses and carbon-based materials were taken. It was determined that the carbon-based materials produced have a carbonaceous structure consisting of aromatic carbon layers. This research has demonstrated the potential of recycling waste biomass resources such as walnut shells and peanut shells for the production of carbon-based materials. The production process of these materials represents an environmentally sustainable and economically efficient approach, while at the same time responding to various industrial needs. As a result, the research and development of biomass-based carbon materials is expected to make a significant contribution to the development of future green and sustainable technologies.

Chromium, which poses a danger to the health of humans and other living organisms, can cause many diseases ranging from respiratory diseases to cancer. In contrast, the solubility and toxic effect of trivalent Cr(III) ions in water is very low. Recently, adsorption technique has attracted attention for the treatment of wastewater containing Cr(VI). Based on the aim of transforming wastes into value-added products, the removal of Cr(VI) ions with thermal power plant waste was investigated. It was aimed to convert highly toxic Cr(VI) species into Cr(III) species and remove the ions by adsorbing. In this context, the study parameters were optimized using Taguchi experimental design method. pH, concentration, dose, time and temperature were selected as controllable variables. In Taguchi optimization study, L16 Taguchi factorial experimental design was performed by selecting 5 different factors and 4 different levels for each parameter. After the completion of the experiments, Cr (VI) removal percentages (%) were calculated and it was determined by Taguchi method that the optimum experimental working conditions were initial pH 2, concentration 80 ppm, dose 20 g/L, time 3 hours and temperature 25 oC and 99.43% Cr (VI) removal was successfully achieved under the specified conditions. FT-IR, SEM-EDX, pHZPC, TGA and XRD analyses were performed to determine the surface morphology and chemistry of the thermal power plant waste. Langmuir, Freundlich, Tempkin and Dubinin-Radushkevich models will be used to determine the adsorption capacity of the waste. For the purpose of performance evaluation, a comparative evaluation study was carried out on Cr(VI) removal of CaSO4-containing thermal power plant waste and magnetic activated carbon synthesized by co-pyrolysis technique.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction In recent years, the decrease in water resources due to the rapid increase in population, urbanization and industrialization has become an important problem. As a result of the increasing production activities with the effect of the increase in industrial demands, the levels of pollutants entering the water also increase. This situation causes water resources to be polluted and limited. Water pollutants such as antibiotics, dyestuffs and heavy metals are serious pollutants due to their toxicity levels. Heavy metals, one of the pollutants, are an important area that needs to be studied to remove them from water because they have a high toxic effect on living organisms, especially humans (Wang et al., 2024). Heavy metals are among the most harmful contaminants in water. Heavy metals (e.g. Pb, As, Hg, Cd, Zn, Ag, Cu, Fe, Cr, Ni, Pd and Pt) are mainly transition metals, elements from the lower left of the periodic table and some metalloids. They are highly concentrated elements and are toxic even at ppb levels (Abu Shmeis, 2022).Among heavy metals, chromium (Cr) is highly mobile and therefore highly toxic. As a result of the activities of industries such as plating, metallurgy, tannery and leather production, it is mixed into wastewater and discharged into the environment (Gu et al., 2023). It occurs in nature as oxyanions and is frequently found in hexavalent (Cr(VI)) and trivalent (Cr(III)) forms. Chromium, which enters surface and groundwater through wastewater discharged as a result of industrial activities, can also penetrate the soil and enter the food chain through agricultural products (Ren et al., 2020).The Cr(VI) form has extremely high toxicity, while the Cr(III) form is known to be 500-1000 times less biotoxic (Ren et al., 2020). At the same time, chromium in this form is a necessary ion at limited levels for some metabolic activities such as blood sugar regulation. In contrast, the Cr(VI) form can cause many diseases such as skin irritation, organ failure and even cancer. Since the trivalent form of chromium is less toxic, it is possible to reduce the toxic effect by converting Cr(VI) to Cr(III) (Lathe & Palve, 2023).Recently, adsorption technique for the treatment of Cr(VI) containing wastewater has attracted attention. A study was conducted to investigate the removal of Cr(VI) ions using thermal power plant flue gas desulfurization (FCD) effluents as a way to convert wastes into value-added products. FCD wastes are produced in FCD systems of thermal power plant flue gases. The FGD flue gas desulfurization process used in Çanakkale Çan Thermal Power Plant is schematically shown in Figure 1. The flue gas is fed to the column from zone 1. Lime slurry is fed downwards from the top of the column. The CaSO4 containing waste material generated in the system is collected from the bottom of the column and stored in the fields (Shanthakumar et al., 2008). 1388 VI.

FCD flue gas treatment system flow chart Clean Gas 7 3 Cyclone Calcite Washer 2 5 FCD 8 FCD Waste 6 Flue Gas 1 Gypsum Bulamaç 4 Oxygen Air The clean gas formed after the purification process is released from the upper part of the column.There is no previous study in which thermal power plant flue gas treatment waste was used. In this study, it was aimed to utilize flue gas treatment waste for the first time and to use it as an adsorbent for the removal of heavy metals in wastewater. By using this waste containing CaSO4, Cr(VI) species in wastewater will be converted into Cr(III) species and ions will be removed by adsorbing. Materials and Methods Thermal power plant flue gas treatment waste was obtained from Çanakkale Çan Thermal Power Plant. SEM-EDX (Scanning electron microscopy/Energy dispersive spectroscopy), FTIR (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy), XRD (X-Ray diffraction), XRF (X-Ray fluorescence), TGA techniques were applied for the characterization of surface morphology, particle size, determination of functional groups and elemental composition of the waste.The waste obtained from Çanakkale Çan Thermal Power Plant was dried at 80oC for 24 hours and then the dried material was sieved through a 100-mesh sieve.Stock chromium solution was prepared to determine the Cr(VI) ion adsorption capacity of the waste. For this purpose, 2.808 g of 99% pure Na2Cr2O7 (Merck) was weighed. It was placed in a 1 L balloon jug, some distilled 1389 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal water was added to dissolve it, and a stock solution of 1000 mg/l was prepared by adding distilled water up to the line of the balloon jug. 6N H2SO4 was prepared from 95-98% (d = 1.84 g/cm3) H2SO4 (Merck) solution to be used in the experiments.Experimental parameters were optimized using MINITAB software. Factors affecting the adsorption process such as pH, concentration, dose, time and temperature were determined as study parameters. These 5 factors were determined as controllable variables and 4 levels were determined for each of them and 5 factor 4 level L16 Taguchi factorial experimental design was applied.The pH values were chosen as 1.5, 2, 3, 4, concentration values as 20, 40, 60, 80 ppm, dosages as 5, 10, 20, 40 g/L, time as 1, 3, 6, 12 hours and temperature as 25, 35, 45, 55 oC. 16 experimental sets were determined by Taguchi method and the experimental sets are given in Table 1.

Chromium solutions with concentrations ranging from 0.1-1.0 mg/L were prepared. Diphenyl carbazide solution was prepared by dissolving 0.5 g 1,5-diphenyl carbazide in 100 ml acetone solution. Additions were made to the solutions according to the procedure and the colors were allowed to stabilize. Absorbance values were measured at 540 nm wavelength with L7 Double Beam UV Spectrophotometer visible region spectrophotometer to generate standard calibration 1390 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal curve.The solutions formed as a result of Cr(VI) removal processes were diluted considering the color differences and diphenyl carbazide method was applied. Absorbance values were measured by adding 2 ml 6N H2SO4, 1 ml 1,5-diphenyl carbazide solution to the solutions. The concentrations of Cr(VI) ions in the solutions were determined using the standard calibration curve equation. The percentage of chromium removal is expressed in Table 1. The optimum experimental operating parameters were determined by Taguchi method. The optimum experimental operating parameters were determined as initial pH 2, concentration 80 ppm, dose 20 g/L, time 3 hours and temperature 25 oC. Upon testing the reusability of the adsorbent, 3 sets of experiments were repeated with the same adsorbent under optimum conditions. Findings and Discussion Elemental analysis, BET, TGA, XRD, FT-IR, SEM-EDX, XRD, FT-IR, SEM-EDX, FT-IR analyses were carried out to determine the physicochemical properties of thermal power plant flue gas treatment waste. Adsorption isotherms and kinetics were also studied to investigate the Cr(VI) removal and mechanism of the material. Figure 1 shows the FTIR results of the FCD waste. The characteristic vibration bands of sulfates around 1085 cm-1 confirmed the presence of calcium sulfate in the structure. Figure 2a shows the EDX result after drying of FCD waste. Figure 2b shows the EDX result of the adsorbent after chromium removal. CaSO4 content in the structure was observed in both graphs. Cr(VI) ions adsorbed on the structure are seen in the EDX result. Figure 3a shows the SEM images of the FCD waste. The pore structure on the surface was visualized by SEM analysis. Furthermore, BET analysis of the effluent shows that it has a surface area of 11.936 m2/g. Despite exhibiting a low surface area, a high level of removal was achieved. The mapping image in Figure 3b shows the Cr adsorbed on the structure. 1391 VI.

(a) SEM images of thermal power plant waste, (b) Mapping image of the waste after chromium removal process Conclusion and Recommendations By Taguchi method, initial pH 2, concentration 80 ppm, dose 20 g/L, time 3 hours and temperature 25 oC were determined as optimum adsorption experimental conditions and 99.43% Cr(VI) removal was successfully achieved under these conditions. The experiment was repeated 3 times with the same adsorbent under optimum conditions and the reusability of the waste was investigated. It was found to be reusable. Considering the color changes during the adsorption process, it was observed that Cr(VI) ions were reduced to Cr(III) form and adsorbed by 99.43% under optimum conditions. When the experiment sets were analyzed, chromium removal could not be achieved in the 9th experiment and after. This shows the effect of pH. At low pH values (1.5-2), chromium removal could be realized effectively. In order to evaluate the adsorption performance of thermal power plant flue gas treatment waste, a comparative evaluation study was carried out with magnetic activated carbon (MAC) synthesized by copyrolysis technique. Chromium removal experiments of MAC synthesized from red sludge and sugar beet pulp by slow pyrolysis technique at 800oC were carried out. In this way, the adsorption capacity of FCD waste was compared with a different type of adsorbent.

CP'nin iki aktif metabolitinden fosforamid mustard antineoplastik etkilerinden sorumlu olurken diğer aktif metaboliti olan akrolein ise CP'nin toksik etkileri ile ilişkilidir. Bu aktif metabolit doku antioksidan savunma sisteminde yüksek oranda oksijensiz radikal oluşumuna neden olur ve memeli hücreleri için mutajeniktir. CP’nin bu metaboliti ve CP'nin aktivasyonu sırasında oluşan reaktif oksijen türlerinin (ROS) hücre redoks dengesinde değişikliklere neden olarak oksidatif strese yol açar. Bu durum CP kaynaklı kanserleşme ve sağlıklı hücre hasarının nedeni olabilir. Selenyum (Se), memelilerde antioksidan işlevi ve immünomodülasyon fonksiyonlarına sahip temel bir eser elementtir. Se’un antioksidan ve antikanser etkinliği insanlarda çeşitli biyolojik fonksiyonlara sahip selenoproteinlerin yapısına dâhil olması ile gerçekleşir. CP metabolizmasına bağlı artan ROS apoptozda önemli bir kontrol noktası olan mitokondriyal lipit peroksidasyonunu indükleyebilir ve bu durum membran potansiyelini etkileyebilir. Bcl-2 protein ailesi apoptozda mitokondriyal porasyonu kontrol eder. Bu çalışmanın amacı CP’nin neden olduğu karaciğer hasarında mitokondriyal fonksiyon bozukluğunu kontrol eden Bcl-2 ve Bax proteinlerinin Se ile etkileşimlerinin in silico olarak araştırılmasıdır. Se’nin CP kaynaklı hasara karşı koruyucu etkisinin mekanizmasının açıklanmasıdır. Bu amaçla AutoDockTools (1.5.6) yazılım programı kullanılarak ilgilenilen proteinlerin üç boyutlu kristal yapıları ile Se, CP ve Se+CP kombinasyonları dikkate alınarak moleküler yerleştirme çalışmaları gerçekleştirilmiştir. Se ve CP uygulama kombinasyonlarına bağlı olarak elde edilen Se@Bcl-2, CP@Bcl-2, Se/C@Bcl2, Se@Bax, CP@Bax ve Se/CP@Bax komplekslerinde Se’un ve CP’nin makromoleküllerin aktif bölge amino asit kalıntıları ile ve diğer amino asitlerle olan etkileşimleri başta konvensiyonel hidrojen bağ ve Pi-Alkyl türleri olmak üzere değerlendirilmiştir. Bu etkileşimler sonucunda hesaplanan Gibbs Serbest Enerji değişimi (∆G) değerleri protein-ligand etkileşimi dikkate alınarak proteinin liganda olan bağlanma afinitesi kapsamında değerlendirilmiştir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INTERACTION OF SELENIUM WITH APOPTOTIC MARKERS IN CHEMOTHERAPEUTIC AGENT-INDUCED LIVER INJURY: IN SILICO EVALUATION Abstract Cyclophosphamide (CP), a metronomic chemotherapeutic agent, is a cancer drug that is effective in various tumor types, including mucinous and epithelial ovarian cancer, sarcoma, and lung and prostate cancer. Of the two active metabolites of CP, phosphoramide mustard is responsible for the antineoplastic effects of CP. In contrast, the other active metabolite, acrolein, is associated with the toxic effects of CP. This active metabolite causes a high rate of oxygenfree radical formation in the tissue antioxidant defense system and is mutagenic to mammalian cells. This metabolite of CP and the reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated during CP activation cause changes in the cell redox balance of cells leading to oxidative stress. This could be the cause of CP-induced carcinogenesis and damage to healthy cells. Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element with antioxidant and immunomodulatory functions in mammals. The antioxidant and anticancer effects of Se is realized by its incorporation into the structure of selenoproteins with various biological functions in humans. Increased ROS due to CP metabolism can induce mitochondrial lipid peroxidation, an important checkpoint in apoptosis, which can impair membrane potential. The Bcl-2 protein family controls mitochondrial porosity during apoptosis. The aim of this study was to investigate in silico the interactions of Bcl-2 and Bax proteins, which control mitochondrial dysfunction in CP-induced liver injury, with Se. To clarify the mechanism of the protective effect of Se against CP-induced damage. To this end, molecular docking studies were performed using the software program AutoDockTools (1.5.6), taking into account the three-dimensional crystal structures of the proteins of interest and the combinations of Se, CP, and Se+CP. In Se@Bcl-2, CP@Bcl-2, Se/C@Bcl-2, Se/C@Bcl-2, Se@Bax, CP@Bax and Se/CP@Bax complexes obtained as a function of the Se and CP application combinations, the interactions of Se and CP with the active site amino acid residues of the macromolecules and with other amino acids were evaluated, mainly conventional hydrogen bonds and Pi-alkyl species. The Gibbs free energy change values (∆G) calculated as a result of these interactions were evaluated in the context of the binding affinity of the protein to the ligand, considering the protein-ligand interaction. The results obtained were also evaluated for in vivo application results. Keywords: Cyclophosphamide, selenium, cell death, mitochondrial lipid peroxidation, reactive oxygen species 1396 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Metronomik kemoterapi, geleneksel kemoterapide olduğu gibi yüksek dozlarda ve aralarla verilen döngüler yerine, düşük dozlarda anti-kanser ilaçlarının sürekli olarak veya düzenli aralıklarla uygulanmasını içeren yeni bir kemoterapi yaklaşımıdır (Cazzaniga et al., 2022). Bu kemoterapik yaklaşımın azaltılmış yan etkiler, daha iyi tolere edilebilirlik ve doğrudan kanserli hücrenin apoptoza uğratılmasının ötesinde anti-tümör etki potansiyeli gibi avantajları vardır. Metronomik tedavide ilaç dozu konvensiyonel tedaviye kıyasla daha düşük olduğu için, metronomik tedavi tipik olarak geleneksel kemoterapiye göre daha az ve daha az şiddetli yan etkiler beklenmektedir. Bu özellik azaltılmış yan etkiler olarak tanımlanmaktadır (Gür & Cengiz, 2023; Kieran et al., 2005). Bu, özellikle yüksek doz kemoterapinin olumsuz yan etkilerini tolere edemeyen hastalar için faydalı olabilir. Metronomik tedavinin daha düşük dozları ve sürekli programı, hastaların tedaviyi tolere etmesini kolaylaştırabilir ve yaşam kalitelerini artırabilir. Bu yönü metronomik tedavinin daha iyi tolere edilebilirlik açısından avantajlarını ortaya koymaktadır (Mir et al., 2024). Metronomik tedavi, anjiyogenez (tümörlerin büyümek için ihtiyaç duyduğu yeni kan damarlarının oluşumu), metastaz (kanser hücrelerinin vücudun diğer bölgelerine yayılması) ve bağışıklık sistemi dâhil olmak üzere birden fazla tümör büyüme ve ilerleme mekanizmasını hedef almaktadır. Bu yönüyle de metronomik tedavi doğrudan kanserli hücrenin apoptoza uğratılmasının ötesinde anti-tümör etki potansiyeli gibi avantajlar sağlamaktadır (Kareva, 2017; Kim & Kim, 2019).Düşük dozda kemoterapötik ajanların sürekli uygulanması olarak tanımlanan metronomik kanser tedavisi (MKT), etkilerini immünomodülasyon, anti-anjiyogenez ve doğrudan sitotoksik etkiler yoluyla ortaya koyan bir tedavi olarak kabul edilmektedir. Bu ilaçlar tipik olarak ağızdan verilir, bu da tedaviyi hastalar için daha uygun hale getirebilir. MKT'nin ağızdan uygulanması güvenlidir, kullanımı kolaydır ve esnek ilaç dozajına izin verir. Tolere edilemeyen yan etkilerle ilişkili doz birikimleri nadir olduğundan ilaç daha uzun süre uygulanabilir (Krajnak et al., 2022; Muraro et al., 2023). Tedavi sonrası yeniden tümör oluşumunu önlemeye yardımcı olabilir (Kong et al., 2010). Diğer kanser tedavileri ile birlikte iyi sonuç verebilir (Hadjicharalambous et al., 2022). Tolere edilemeyen yan etkilerle ilişkili doz birikimleri nadir olduğundan ilaç daha uzun süre uygulanabilir.MKT halen araştırılmaktadır, ancak tek başına veya diğer tedavilerle kombinasyon halinde çeşitli kanserler için bir tedavi olarak umut vaat etmektedir. En yaygın kullanılan metronomik kemoteropotik ajanlardan bazıları siklofosfamid (CP), metotreksat, kapesitabin, ve vinorelbine’dir (De Lorenzo et al., 2018; Estevinho et al., 2022; Hamm et al., 2009; Soriano et al., 2011). 1397 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal CP, Dünya Sağlık Örgütünün (WHO) temel ilaçlar model listesinde yer alan metronomik kemoterapötik bir ajan olarak müsinöz ve epitelyal yumurtalık kanserleri, sarkom, akciğer ve prostat kanserleri de dâhil olmak üzere çeşitli tümör tiplerinde etkinlik gösteren antikanser ilaçlardandır. Yaygın kullanım alanına sahip ilaçlardan olan CP hem geleneksel hem de metronomik kanser tedavisinde yaygın olarak kullanılan bir kemoterapi ilacıdır. Metronomik tedavide CP, geleneksel yüksek doz kemoterapi rejimlerine kıyasla genellikle daha düşük dozlarda ve daha sık aralıklarla uygulanır. CP, alkilleyici ajanlar olarak bilinen ve kanser hücrelerinin DNA'sına müdahale ederek sonuçta ölümlerine yol açan bir kemoterapi ilacıdır (Penel et al., 2012). Genel olarak, CP, anti-anjiyogenez ve immünomodülasyon dahil olmak üzere çoklu mekanizmalar yoluyla kanser hücrelerini hedefleyebilen çok yönlü bir kemoterapi ilacı olarak metronomik kanser tedavisinde önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Metronomik tedavide, CP anti-anjiyogenik özellikleri için kullanılabilir, yani tümörler içinde yeni kan damarlarının büyümesini engellemeye yardımcı olabilir, böylece kan akışını kısıtlayabilir ve büyümelerini yavaşlatabilir. Anti-anjiyogenik etkilerine ek olarak CP, vücudun kanser hücrelerine karşı bağışıklık tepkisini artırabilen immünomodülatör özelliklere de sahiptir. Bu özellik, ilacın doğrudan sitotoksik etkilerini tamamlayabildiği için metronomik tedavide özellikle önemlidir (Kerbel & Kamen, 2004; Lopes-Coelho et al., 2021).MKT’de CP kullanımının önemli avantajları ve dikkate alınması gereken dezavantajları bulunmaktadır. Yüksek doz kemoterapiyi kaldıramayan hastalar için çok önemli olabilecek azaltılmış doz uygulaması sonucu gelişmiş tolere edilebilirlik özelliğine sahiptir. MKT tedavisinde CP, kanser hücrelerini doğrudan öldürmenin ötesinde tümör büyümesini ve yayılmasını engelleyerek anti-tümör etki potansiyeli gösterir. CP ayrıca metronomik yaklaşıma uygunluğu nedeni ile dirençli kanserlere karşı daha iyi etkinlik gösterebilir (Carraher Jr et al., 2014; Elaziz et al., 2024; Lopes-Coelho et al., 2021; Yuan et al., 2021).Öte yandan CP’nin bilinen bu olumlu etkilerine ilaveten bazı dezavantajlı yönleri de literatürde bildirilmiştir. MKT’de düşük doz uygulamaları nedeni ile agresif kanserler için geleneksel kanser tedavisine kıyasla daha zayıf bir doğrudan hücre öldürme etkisi gösterebilirler. Sürekli düşük doz uygulamaları nedeni ile uzun süre kullanımına bağlı olarak kemik iliği baskılanması ve ikincil kanser riskinde artış gibi potansiyel komplikasyonlar önemli araştırma konularıdır. CP’nin dezavantajlarına ilişkin ana endişe konusu mesane ve gonadal toksisite olmuştur. Ayrıca CP’nin sperm morfolojisi, testis histolojisi ve kan oksidan-antioksidan dengesi üzerindeki toksik etkisi de bildirilmiştir (Çeribaşi et al., 2010). CP’nin önemli diğer toksik etkileri hepatotoksisite ve kardiyotoksisitedir. 1398 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal CP’nin metabolik aktivasyonu, nükleik asitler ve proteinler gibi duyarlı moleküllerin elektron bakımından zengin bölgeleriyle reaksiyona giren yüksek oranda reaktif karbonyum iyonları üreten sitotoksik bir alkilleyici ajandır ve karaciğerde aktif formuna dönüştürülür (Elrashdy et al., 2022). CP’nin bu metabolik dönüşümü iki sitotoksik metabolitin, fosforamid mustard ve akroleinin oluşumuna yol açar. Fosforamid mustard antineoplastik aktiviteye sahiptir ve DNA üzerinden hücre bölünmesine engel olur. Aynı zamanda CP'nin immünosupresif ve antitümör etkilerine aracılık ettiği de bildirilmiştir. Bununla birlikte CP'nin toksik etkileri ise diğer aktif metaboliti olan akroleine atfedilmektedir. Akrolein, biyolojik yarı ömrü kısa olan oldukça reaktif bir metabolittir ve bu durum CP’nin neden olduğu karaciğer hasarından sorumlu olabileceği anlamına gelir. Akrolein yüksek oranda oksijensiz radikal oluşumuna neden olur ve memeli hücreleri için mutajeniktir (Gür & Cengiz, 2023; Hales, 1982; Panigrahy et al., 2011; Senthilkumar et al., 2006).Reaktif oksijen türleri (ROS) hücrelerdeki en yaygın oksidanlardan bazılarıdır. ROS, moleküler oksijenin süperoksit (O2−·), hidrojen peroksit (H2O2), lipid peroksitler (ROOH) veya bunlara karşılık gelen hidroksil (HO·) ve peroksil radikallerine (ROO·) kısmi indirgenmesiyle oluşur (Collin, 2019; Liu et al., 2012).CP’nin neden olduğu oksidatif stres ROS malondialdehit (MDA), süperoksit dismutaz (SOD), katalaz (CAT), glutatyon (GSH), glutatyon peroksidaz (GPx) ve glutatyon redüktaz (GR) belirteçleri ile değerlendirilir. Ayrıca CP metabolizmasına bağlı artan ROS apoptozda önemli bir kontrol noktası olan mitokondriyal lipit peroksidasyonunu da indükleyebilir ve bu durum membran potansiyelini etkileyebilir.Bcl-2 protein ailesi apoptozda mitokondriyal poroziteyi kontrol eder. Bu protein ailesinden Bcl-2 proapoptotik bir belirteçtir ve sağlıklı hücrede var olması istenmektedir, aksine azalması durumu apoptozu göstermektedir. Aynı protein ailesinden Bax ise antiapoptotik bir belirteçtir ve sağlıklı hücrede Bax miktarının artışı hücre apoptoza uğruyor anlamına gelir (Cengiz, Ayhanci, et al., 2022; Edlich, 2018).Selenoprotein, selenosistein amino asit kalıntısı içeren bir proteindir. Selenosistein amino asidi, glutatyon peroksidaz, thioredoksin redüktaz gibi enzimlerin yapısında yer alır. Selenoproteinler adı verilen çeşitli enzim ve proteinlerin bir bileşeni olan selenyum, DNA yapımında rol alır, üreme ve tiroid sağlığını destekler, metabolizmanın sağlıklı çalışmasına yardımcı olur ve oksidatif hücre hasarının yanı sıra enfeksiyonlara karşı vücudu korur. Selenyum (Se), memelilerde antioksidan işlevi ve immünomodülasyon fonksiyonlarına sahip temel bir eser elementtir (Fernández-Lázaro et al., 2020; Ye et al., 2021).Bu çalışmanın amacı CP’nin neden olduğu karaciğer hasarında mitokondriyal fonksiyon bozukluğunun bir belirteci olan Bcl-2 ve Bax proteinlerinin Se ile etkileşimlerinin in silico çalışmalarla araştırılmasıdır. 1399 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Materyal ve Metot Se’nin CP kaynaklı hasara karşı koruyucu etkisinin mekanizmasının açıklanması amacıyla AutoDockTools (1.5.6) yazılım programı kullanılmıştır. Bağlanma dinamiklerini analiz etmek ve görselleştirmek amacıyla da Discovery Studio 3.0 programı kullanılmıştır. Çalışılan proteinlerin (Bcl-2 ve Bax) üç boyutlu kristal yapıları ile Se, CP ve Se+CP kombinasyonları dikkate alınarak moleküler yerleştirme çalışmaları gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu amaçla Bcl-2 (PDB ID: 2O2F) ve Bax (PDB ID: 1F16) hedef proteinlerinin 3D kristal yapıları RCSB protein veri tabanından indirildi (Bruncko et al., 2007; Suzuki et al., 2000). CP'nin ve Se’nin moleküler modelleri SDF formatında sırasıyla Structure2D_CID_2907 ve Structure2D_COMPOUND_CID_15103 kodlarıyla PubChem veri tabanından indirildi. AutoDockTools yazılımı (1.5.6) kullanılarak yapılan moleküler yerleştirme işleminden önce protein yapısından su molekülleri uzaklaştırıldı, hidrojen atomları eklendi, polar olmayan hidrojen atomları birleştirildi ve son olarak Kollman yükleri eklenerek protein yapıları hazırlanmıştır. CP ve Se'nin Bcl-2 ve Bax proteinlerine moleküler docking çalışması PyRx programı kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir (Gür, 2020; Gür, Cengiz, et al., 2021; Trott & Olson, 2010). Enerji minimizasyonu ve diğer parametreler önceki çalışmalarımızda yapıldığı gibi ayarlandı (Gür, Cengiz, & Gür, 2021; Gür et al., 2020).PyRx programı ile CP ve Selenomethionine moleküllerinin Bcl-2 ve Bax'ın hangi kalıntılarına bağlanma eğiliminde olduğunu bulmak için dokuz farklı bağlanma modu seçildi ve bunun üzerine hem CP hem de Selenomethionine molekülleri ligand olarak kullanılmak üzere Discovery Studio 3.0 programına uyumlu olacak şekilde ayarlandı. Daha sonra Bcl-2 ve Bax makromoleküllerinin CP ve Selenomethionine molekülleri ile etkileşimleri 2D ve 3D etkileşim modları kullanılarak ortaya çıkarılmıştır. Negatif bağlanma enerjisi parametreleri ise en düşük Gibbs serbest enerji değişimi (ΔG) değerleri dikkate alınarak belirlenmiştir. Se ve CP uygulama kombinasyonlarına bağlı olarak elde edilen komplekslerde Se’un ve CP’nin, makromoleküllerin aktif bölge amino asit kalıntıları ile ve diğer amino asitlerle olan etkileşimleri başta konvensiyonel hidrojen bağ (CHB) ve Pi-Alkyl türleri olmak üzere değerlendirilmiştir. Moleküler yerleştirme çalışmalarında öncelikle Bcl-2 ve Bax proteinlerine CP’nin ligand olarak bağlanma dinamikleri araştırılmış ve bu amaçla CP@Bcl-2 ve CP@Bax kompleksleri elde edilmiştir. Daha sonra Se ve CP’nin birlikte kenetlenme işlemleri yapılarak ayrı ayrı Se/CP@Bcl-2 ve Se/CP@Bax kompleksleri elde edilmiştir. Çalışmada kullanılan CP ve Selenomethionine moleküllerinin kimyasal yapıları Şekil 1’de gösterilmiştir. 1400 VI.

Tablo 1 dikkate alındığında CP’nin Bcl-2 ile iki önemli hidrojen bağ etkileşimi ve üç tane de alkil ve Pi-alkil etkileşimi yaptığı anlaşılmıştır. CP@Bcl2 kompleks oluşumuna ait ΔG değeri -4.94 kcal/mol olarak hesaplanmıştır. Ancak Se ilavesiyle 1402 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal tüm bu etkileşimlerin gerçekleşmediği sadece CP ile aktif bölge amino asit kalıntılarından ASP108 arasında bir elektrostatik etkileşim olduğu tespit edilmiştir. CP’nin aksine Se ilavesi sonucunda Se ve Bcl-2 arasında önemli CHB etkileşimlerine ek olarak alkil, Pi-alkil ve Pisülfür etkileşimleri meydana gelmiştir. Bu etkileşimler sonucunda Se/CP@Bcl-2 kompleks oluşumuna ait ΔG değeri -3.89 kcal/mol’e yükselmiştir.In silico çalışmalarımız, CP ve Se kombinasyonunda CP'nin Bcl-2’nin katalitik amino asit kalıntıları ile etkileşiminin Se ilavesine bağlı olarak bloklandığını ve dolayısıyla CP nedenli Bcl-2 inhibisyonunun önlendiğini göstermiştir (Cengiz, Ayhanci, et al., 2022; Cengiz, Kutlu, et al., 2022). Se ilavesine bağlı olarak ortaya çıkan önemli bir etkileşim de Pi-sülfür etkileşimleri olmuştur. Şekil 3 ve Tablo 1 dikkate alındığında Se’un Bcl-2’nin aktif bölge çevresinde bulunan PHE101, PHE109 ve PHE150 amino asitleri ile Pi-sülfür etkileşimleri yaptığı anlaşılmıştır. Bu etkileşimler Bcl-2 proteininde kararlılık ve aktivite gibi iki temel özelliği etkileyerek enzim aktivitesinde önemli katkılar sağlamış olabilir (Ringer et al., 2007). Se ile etkileşim sonucu oluşan Pi-sülfür bağlarına bağlı ortaya çıkan stabilite Bcl-2’nin aktif bölge içinde katalize dâhil olan amino asit kalıntılarının doğru konumlandırılmasının sağlanmasında katkıda bulunmuş olabilir (Dubey et al., 2019). Ayrıca metiyonin gibi kükürt içeren yan zincirler yakındaki amino asitlerdeki aromatik halkalarla zayıf bağlar oluşturarak enzimin substrat bağlanması ve kataliz için en uygun şeklini korumasına yardımcı olmuş olabilir (Brosnan & Brosnan, 2006). Ayrıca meydana gelen bu Pi-sülfür etkileşimleri Bcl-2’nin katalitik mekanizmasına doğrudan dâhil olabilir. Bu etkileşim, katalize katılan amino asitlerin elektronik özelliklerini etkileyerek potansiyel olarak onları daha reaktif hale getirmiş veya kataliz için daha iyi konumlanmış hale getirebilir (Dubey et al., 2019). CP@Bax ve Se/CP@Bax kompleks oluşum sonuçları CP ile Bax proteini arasında meydana gelen etkileşimlere bağlı olarak ortaya çıkan bağlanmalar Şekil 4'te gösterilmiştir. 1403 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 4. CP ile Bax etkileşimine bağlı moleküler docking sonuçları; a) CP'nin Bax’ın amino asit kalıntılarıyla etkileşimini gösteren 2D görünüm, b) CP’nin Bax ile etkileşimlerini gösteren 3D görünüm (Çubuk yapı) CP molekülünün Bax'ın bağlanma bölgesine yerleştirilmesinin ardından, Şekil 4'te gösterildiği gibi bir CP@Bax kompleksi elde edilmiştir. CP’nin Bax’ın amino asitleri ile etkileşimi ve dolayısı ile CP’nin Bax aktivasyonuna etkisinin selenyum katkısı ile nasıl değiştiğinin değerlendirilmesi amacıyla CP ve Se’un Bax ile birlikte moleküler docking çalışmaları yapılmış ve sonuçlar Şekil 5'de verilmiştir.

Tablo 2 dikkate alındığında CP’nin Bax ile dört önemli hidrojen bağ etkileşimi ve dört tane de alkil etkileşimi yaptığı ve kompleks oluşumuna ait ΔG değerinin -3.82 kcal/mol olduğu anlaşılmıştır. Se ilavesiyle Se/CP@Bax kompleksinde ARG134’e ait hidrojen bağ uzunluklarının kısaldığı belirlenmiş ve bu durum oluşan kompleksin kararlılığının arttığını düşündürmüştür. Bcl-2 ile CP ve Se kompleks özelliklerinin aksine Se varlığında Se/CP@Bax kompleksinde aktif bölge ile olan etkileşimler hem CP için hem de Se için daha fazla olmuştur. Bunun sonucunda ΔG değerinde daha da azalma olmuştur. Se ve Bax’ın amino asit kalıntıları arasında önemli hidrojen ve alkil, pi-alkil bağlanmalarına ilave olarak bir tane pi-sülfür etkileşimi de meydana gelmiştir. Bu etkileşimler Bax proteinini daha da kararlı hale getirmiş ve özellikle Pi-sülfür etkileşimine bağlı olarak inhibe etmiş olabilir (Gao et al., 2020; Gür et al., 2023; Sami et al., 2022).CP kaynaklı apoptoza karşı selenyumun koruyucu etkisinin olup olmadığının in silico olarak araştırıldığı bu çalışmada karaciğerde lipit peroksidasyonu ve buna bağlı olarak ortaya çıkan mitokondriyal fonksiyon bozukluğu sonucunda önemli proapoptotoik ve antiapoptotoik belirteçler üzerinde Se katkısının etkisi değerlendirilmiştir. Bu değerlendirme Şema 1’de özetlenmiştir. 1405 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Bcl-2 Bax Şema 1. Se ve CP’nin Bcl-2 ve Bax proteinleri üzerine etkisi (Petros et al., 2001; Regina, 2020; Suzuki et al., 2000) Sonuç ve Öneriler In silico sonuçlara dayanarak, Se’nin CP ile indüklenen apoptoza karşı koruyucu etkilerinin Bcl-2 inhibisyonunun önlenmesi ile artması ve kararlı Bax komplekleri oluşturarak azalması yoluyla ortaya çıkabileceğini ve bu amaçla kullanılabilecek bir aday olduğu düşünülebilir. Sonuç olarak Se’un CP ve benzeri alkilleyici ajanların kullanımını gerektiren kanser hastalarında klinik uygulamadan önce daha iyi değerlendirilmesini sağlayabileceğine inanıyoruz. 1406 VI.

İlk olarak, gıdaların hangi mesafeler boyunca taşındığı ve bu taşımanın ne kadar enerji gerektirdiği gibi konulara odaklanan araştırmalar, gıda mili kavramının gelişmesine katkı sağlamıştır. Gıda mili kavramı, gıda sistemlerinin ve küresel ticaretin evrimiyle birlikte ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu kavram, tüketicilerin gıda alımlarını daha sürdürülebilir bir şekilde yönlendirmelerine yardımcı olmak için önemli bir araç haline gelmiştir. Gıda mili kavramı, bir gıdanın üretildiği yerden tüketicilere ulaşana kadar kat ettiği mesafeyi ölçmektedir. Gıda mili tarımsal ürünlerin taşınma sürecindeki çevresel etkileri, tüketiciye ulaşmadan önceki süreyi ve ürünlerin tazeliğini etkilemektedir. Daha uzun gıda mili, daha fazla enerji tüketimi ve çevresel etkiye yol açtığı gibi, ürünlerin tazeliğini ve besleyiciliğini de olumsuz etkilemektedir. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı tarımsal ürünlerdeki gıda millerine yönelik bir değerlendirme yapmaktır. Bu çalışma dört bölümden oluşmaktadır. Birinci bölümde gıda milinin tarımda neden önemli olduğu açıklanmıştır. İkinci bölümde gıda milinin nasıl ölçüldüğüne yönelik bilgiler verilmiştir. Üçüncü bölümde tarımsal ürünlerdeki gıda millerine yönelik bir değerlendirme yapılmıştır. Bu kapsamda çeşitli tarımsal ürünlerden örnekler sunulmuştur. Dördüncü bölümde ise, tarım ürünleri ticaretinde gıda mili ile ilgili karşılaşın temel sorunlar belirtilerek öneriler getirilmiştir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal FOOD MILES: AN ASSESSMENT OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS Abstract The development of industrial agriculture has led to more widespread consumption of foods from remote areas and a recognition of the environmental impacts associated with transporting these foods. Firstly, research focusing on the distances food is transported and how much energy this transportation requires contributed to developing the food mile concept. The concept of the food mile emerged with the evolution of food systems and global trade. This concept has become an important tool to help consumers direct their food purchases more sustainably. The food mile measures the distance a food travels from where it is produced to reach consumers. Food mileage affects the environmental impacts of agricultural products during the transportation process, the time before they reach the consumer and the freshness of the products. Longer food miles not only lead to greater energy consumption and environmental impact but also negatively affect the freshness and nutrition of products. The primary purpose of this study is to make an evaluation of food miles in agricultural products. This study consists of four parts. The first part explains why the food mile is essential in agriculture. The second section gives information on how food miles are measured. In the third section, an evaluation was made regarding food miles for agricultural products. In this context, examples from various agricultural products are presented. In the fourth chapter, the main problems encountered regarding food miles in the trade of agricultural products are stated and suggestions are made. Keywords: Food Miles, Agriculture, Agricultural Products, Sustainability 1413 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Yirminci yüzyılın sonunda gıda ürünlerine yönelik değerlendirmeler küresel sürdürülebilirlik veya sürdürülebilir üretim kavramları ile düşünülmektedir. Öncelikle Rachel Carson’un 1962’de yayınladığı Sessiz Bahar eserinde gıda ürünleri üretiminin çevresel etkileri olduğu açıklanmıştır. Bu kavramlar üzerinde yapılan araştırmalar, genellikle gıda ürünlerinin çiftlik ve çatal arası mesafelerini incelemektedir. Bu değerlendirmeler neticesinde yerel ürün tüketmek ve yerel gıda depoları oluşturmak sürdürülebilir tarımın ihtiyaç duyduğu bir anlayış olmuştur. Gıda üretiminin çevre ve insanlar üzerinde etkileri alanındaki araştırmaların devamı ile gıdanın ulaşım mesafesine tüketicilerin ilgi düzeyleri artmıştır. Gıda mili olarak literatüre kazandırılmış olan bu kavram, gıdanın üretildiği yerden tüketicilere ulaştığı yere kadarki mesafedir (Mcwilliams, 2013). 1990 yıllardan günümüze kadar bu ana akım konu hakkında çeşitli çalışmalar yapılmıştır (Grant, 2007; Goleman, 2009). Bu çalışmalarda Avrupa ve Kuzey Amerika ön plana çıkmıştır. Gıda üretiminin ve seçimlerinin çevre üzerindeki etkileri fark edilmiştir. Tüketilen gıdanın güvenliği ve menşei diğer girdi maliyetlerin yükselmesine neden olduğu için yönetimler tarafından da takip edilmeye başlanmıştır.İklim değişikliği veya iklim krizi konusundaki son zamanlarda yapılmakta olan araştırmalar sera gazı ve emisyon kelimelerini çok sık kullanmaktadır. Sürdürülebilir üretim ve tüketim alanının genişlemesi ile gıda ürünlerinin üretim ve tüketiminin çevresel ve iklim üzerindeki etkileri gösterilmeye başlanmıştır (Hertwich, 2005; Weber and Matthews, 2008; Tukker and Jansen, 2006). Tüketicilerin gıda ürünleri tercihlerinde çevresel sürdürülebilirlikle bağlantılı günümüzde birçok trend oluşmuştur. ABD ve Avrupa’da yerel ve organik üretilen ürünlerin miktarındaki artışlar, tüketicilerin tükettikleri gıdaların nereden ve nasıl üretildiği kriterlerine dikkat ettiğini göstermektedir. Bu alanda 1995 yılında Birleşik Krallık’ta ortaya çıkmış olan gıda mili kavramı ise gıda sürdürülebilirliği konusundaki araştırmalara yön vermiştir (Paxton, 1994; Canals et al, 2007). Uluslararası ticaretin günümüzde gelişmesi ile gıda mili kavramına odaklanılmış ve çeşitli araştırmalar yapılmıştır. Bu araştırmaların etkisi nedeni ile çoğu çevre aktivistleri tarafından küresel tedarik zincirinin yerelleşmesi gerektiği savunulmaktadır (Jones, 2002). Bu görüşün aksine farklı bölgelerdeki üretim uygulamaları yapanlar ve depolama-taşımacılık işletmeleri ise bu isteğin haklı ve doğru olup olmadığını sorgulamışlar ve açıklamışlardır. Hayvansal ürün üretiminin ve tüketiminin çevresel etkilerini gösteren çoğu araştırmacılar gıda tercihlerinde genel olarak bitkisel ürünlerin olması gerektiğini açıklamışlardır (Eshel and Martin, 2006).Gıda ürünleri, birçok çevresel sorunlara neden kabul edildiği için yaşam döngüsü değerlendirmesi (LCA) araştırmalarında önemli bir yere sahiptir (Jungbluth et al, 2000). 1414 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Tüketilen gıda ürünlerinin sayısı nedeni ile analizlerin çoğu az sayıda gıda ürünü ile ilgili çalışmalarla sınırlı kalmıştır. Sınırlı gıda ürünleri üzerinde ise çok ayrıntılı analizler yapılmıştır (Carlsson et al, 2003). Literatürdeki gıda mili ve gıda taşımacılığına olan yüksek ilgiye rağmen, sera gazı emisyonları için önemli olabilecek çiftlik ekipmanları ve malzemelerin çiftliklere taşınması gibi konulardaki araştırmalar sınırlı kalmıştır.Bu çalışmanın temel amacı tarımsal ürünlerdeki gıda millerine yönelik bir değerlendirme yapmaktır. Bu çalışma dört bölümden oluşmaktadır. Birinci bölümde gıda milinin tarımda neden önemli olduğu açıklanmıştır. İkinci bölümde gıda milinin nasıl ölçüldüğüne yönelik bilgiler verilmiştir. Üçüncü bölümde tarımsal ürünlerdeki gıda millerine yönelik bir değerlendirme yapılmıştır. Bu kapsamda çeşitli tarımsal ürünlerden örnekler sunulmuştur. Dördüncü bölümde ise, tarım ürünleri ticaretinde gıda mili ile ilgili karşılaşın temel sorunlar belirtilerek öneriler getirilmiştir. Materyal ve Yöntem Bu araştırmanın verileri ikincil veri kaynaklarına dayanmaktadır. Konu ile ilişkili ulusal ve uluslararası makaleler, kitaplar, tezler, kurumların yayınladığı raporlar ve web siteleri başlıca ikincil veri kaynaklarını oluşturmaktadır. Gıda Mili Kavramı ve Önemi Gıda mili kavramı, Birleşik Krallık’ta 1990 yılında ortaya çıkmıştır. Prof. Dr. Lang tarafından ‘Gıda Milleri Raporu: Uzun Mesafe Gıda Taşımacılığının Tehlikeleri’ yayınında açıklanmıştır. Lang bir sözünde, ‘ölümün kimse tarafından hatırlanmaz ancak, kitabemde gıda milini icat eden bilim insanı olarak yazması önemlidir’ demiştir. Bu durum Angela Paxton tarafından da yazıya geçirilmiştir (Lang 2006; Paxton 1994; Iles, 2005).1994 yılında gıda mili kavramı ayrıntılı olarak açıklanmış ve kamuoyunda konu hakkında tartışmalar başlamıştır. 1995 yılında Birleşik Krallık Çevre Bakanlığı tarafından finanse edilmiş Tüketici Bilgilendirme Projesinin yapıldığı, aynı yılda ‘Çok Uzak Bir Ziyafetin Hesabı: Tüketicilerin Endişeleri’ isimli bir başka araştırma gerçekleştirildiği görülmektedir. 1996 yılında ise Gıda Milleri Eylemi paketi (yerel gıda ekonomisi stratejileri) hazırlanmıştır. 1997 yılında gıda mili konusunda ekmek, patates ve çilek ürünlerinde ilk Food Facts (Gıda Gerçekleri) araştırması yapılmıştır. 1998 yılında portakal, bitkisel yağ, tavuk eti, marul, bira, soya, havuç, armut, elma, süt ve sığır eti ürünlerinde Food Facts araştırmaları yapılmış ve broşür-materyaller piyasaya dağıtılmıştır. 1999 yılında 5 yılı kapsayan gıda mili güncelleme çalışması yapılmıştır (Sustain, 1999). 2007 yılında yapılan gıda mili üzerindeki araştırmalar ile ‘Locavore’ kelimesi literatüre kazandırılmıştır. Locavore; ürün üretilme aşamasında çevreye olan etkilerin göz önünde bulundurulmasıdır (Anonim, 2024b).Gıda mili, üretim yerinden tüketildiği yere kadarki mesafede gıda taşınmasının üretmiş 1415 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal olduğu emisyon miktarını ve çevresel etkilerini incelemektedir. Gıdanın uzaklığı, karbon ayak izi ve çevresel etkileri bu kapsamda ayrıntılı ele alınmaktadır (Engelhaupt, 2008; Kissinger, 2012). Gıda mili araştırmalarında et, meyve ve sebze ürünleri incelenmektedir (Andersson et al, 1998; Marletto and Sillig, 2014; Wiedemann et al, 2015; Meisterling et al, 2009). Bu kavramın Birleşik Krallıkta çıkmasının ve ilgi görmesinin iki nedeni vardır. Bu da Birleşik Krallıkta tüketilen sebzelerin %50’sinin ve meyvelerin %95’inin ithal olarak karşılanmasıdır (Stacey, 2008).Gıda mili, gıda ürünlerinin tüketicilere ulaşmadan önceki kat etmiş olduğu coğrafi mesafeyi ifade etmektedir. Üretimden tüketime olan mesafenin kısa olması hem insanlar hem de çevre için faydalı olduğu açıklanmaktadır. Ürünlerin işlenmesi ve taşınmasında fosil yakıtlar kullanılmakta ve miktarları değişmektedir. Kullanılan yakıt miktarlarının en önemli sonuçları ise iklim değişikliği ve ürün fiyatlarındaki artışlardır. Ne kadar çok gıda taşıması ve kilometresi olursa o kadar emisyon üretilir ve iklim değişikliği de o ölçüde etkilenmektedir (Anonim, 2024a). ABD’de et endüstrisinin %80’nini dört işletmenin kontrol ettiği (üretim ve satış aşamaları) bulunmuştur (USDA, 1998). Küresel firmaların üretimi ve taşımacılığı sonucu ürünlerin büyük üreticiler, işleyiciler, nakliyeciler, distribütörler ve perakendeler aracılığıyla ulaştırıldığı ortaya çıkmıştır (Brian, 2006). Bu tedarik zinciri nedeni ile ABD’nin ürünlerinin ortalama gıda mili 1500 mil olarak bulunmuştur (Foodwise, 2024).Gıda mili kavramı sürdürülebilir ve küresel gıda sanayisinin ayak izinin hesaplanmasında ve yerel kaynakların verimli kullanılmasına önemli katkı sağlanmıştır. Fazla mile sahip gıdalar taşıma ve depolama aşamalarında besin değerini ve tazeliğini kaybetmektedir. Yerel ürünlerin tazelik, yüksek besin değerli ürünler, istihdama olan katkısı ve yerel üreticilerin desteklenmesi gibi olumlu katkıları bulunmaktadır (Commons, 2024). Geleneksel gıda ürünlerinin yerel ürünlere göre tüketiciye ulaşmasında 4-17 (arası) kat daha fazla yakıt tükettiği bulunmuştur. Bu yakıt tüketimi aynı oranda emisyon üretimi olarak da anlaşılmaktadır (Deweert, 2009). ABD’de Time dergisinde yayınlanan ‘Yerel Gıda Hareketi: 100 Mil Diyeti’ makalesiyle yerel gıdanı teşvik edilmiş ve gıda milinin azaltılması için önemli bir adım olmuştur (Roosevelt, 2006). ABD’de çalışmalar neticesinde üretici pazarı sayısında artışlar tespit edilmiştir. ABD’de aktif üretici pazarı sayısı 2000 yılında 2863’den 2012 yılına kadar 7864’e yükselmiştir. Üretici pazarı sayısında ortalama 3 katı artış olduğu bulunmuştur. Diğer bir araştırmaya göre, üretici pazarı müşterilerinin %64’ünün yerel ürün için geldikleri tespit edilmiştir (Wolf et al, 2005).Ürünlerin suyolu, demiryolu, karayolu ve havayolu sıralamasında emisyon miktarının artış gösterdiği bulunmuştur. Uçakla taşınan gıda ürünleri, karayolu ile taşınan ürünlere göre 10 kat fazla emisyona neden olduğu bulunmuştur. Gıdanın 1416 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal uçakla taşınması, su yolu ile taşınmasına göre %50 daha çok emisyon üretmektedir (Harris, 2022). İngiltere’de mevsim dışı olan ve uçakla taşınan yüksek değerli ürünler Birleşik Krallığın gıda taşımacılığı emisyonunun %11’ni oluşturmaktadır. DEFRA araştırmasında, Birleşik Krallık’ta yapılan taşımacılığın %25’ini gıda ürünleri taşımacılığı oluşturduğu bulunmuştur. Birleşik Krallık ve çevresinde gıda ürünü taşımacılığında yılda 19 milyon ton CO2 üretilmektedir ve bu da yaklaşık 5,5 milyon normal araca karşılık gelmektedir (DEFRA, 2020).Gıda mili ve emisyon konusuna en yakın tarım sektörü bulunmaktadır. Tarım sektörü; üretim, işleme, taşıma, depolama ve perakende aşamalarında emisyon üretmektedir. Gıda mili araştırmalarında önemli yere sahip olan tarım sektörünün öneminin anlaşılması için dünyanın tarım ihracat ve ithalat miktarlarının incelenmesi gerekmektedir. Küresel tarım ürünleri ihracatı 2022 yılında yaklaşık 2 trilyon dolar olarak bulunmuştur. Küresel tarım ürünleri ihracatı içindeki ürünler (en çok ihraç edilen ürünler) incelendiğinde, hayvansal ve bitkisel yağlar %8.5 (171.1 milyar dolar), hububat %8.3 (166.7 milyar dolar), et ve et ürünleri %8.0 (162.6 milyar dolar), yağlı tohumlar %7.5 (151.4 milyar dolar) ve meşrubat, alkollü içecekler ve sirke %7.2 (146.4 milyar dolar) oranlarında pay almaktadır (Trademap, 2022).Tarım ürünlerinde üretim miktarı, dağıtım kanalı seçenekleri ve tüketicilerin bulunma noktası gıda mili hesaplamalarında farklılıklara neden olmaktadır. Tarımsal faaliyetler ve gıda üretimi gıda milinde artışa ve çevre sorunlarına yol açabilmektedir. Gıda Milinin Ölçülmesi Gıda millerini hesaplamak için bir dizi formül geliştirilmiş ve genel olarak kabul görmüştür. Bir gıda ürününün kat ettiği mesafeyi hesaplamanın karmaşıklığı, ürünün tek bir bileşenden mi yoksa birden çok malzemeden mi oluştuğuna ve ürünü taşımak için kullanılan nakliye yöntemine bağlı olarak değişmektedir. Ağırlıklı Ortalama Kaynak Mesafesi (WASD) formülü, 1997 yılında Annika Carlsson-Kanyama tarafından geliştirildi ve taşınan gıda miktarını ve üretim yerinden satış yerine kadar kat ettiği mesafeyi hesaba katmaktadır. Sadece bir bileşenden oluşan meyve ve sebzeler ve diğer ürünlerde gıda millerini hesaplamak için WASD formülü kullanılmaktadır. Ağırlıklı Toplam Kaynak Mesafesi (WTSD) formülü, Leopold Sürdürülebilir Tarım Merkezi tarafından geliştirilmiştir ve her bir bileşen için kat edilen mesafeyi ve ağırlığı hesaplayarak çok bileşenli gıdaları açıklamaktadır. Aromalı yoğurt, ekmek ve diğer işlenmiş gıdalar gibi gıdalarda, gıda millerini hesaplamak için WTSD formülü kullanılmaktadır. Hem WASD hem de WTSD, üretici ile tüketici arasında gıdanın kat ettiği mesafeye ilişkin hesaplama yaparken, hiçbir formül kat edilen bu mesafeyle ilişkili sera gazı emisyonlarını ele almamaktadır. Ağırlıklı Ortalama Emisyon Oranı (WAER) formülünde, farklı ulaşım 1417 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yöntemleri için hem mesafe hem de ilişkili sera gazı emisyonları hesaba dahil edilmektedir Bu formül, 2004 yılında kar amacı gütmeyen kuruluş LifeCycles tarafından geliştirilmiştir.Çevresel etkinin ölçülmesinde sadece seyahat miktarının ele alınması doğru değildir. Gıda milinin önemli belirleyicisi olan yakıtın verimliliği üzerinde eğitim, araç cinsi ve lojistik de önemlidir. Gıda ürünlerinin nakliyesinde sera gazı üretimini etkileyen unsurlar incelendiğinde; - Taşıma yöntemi, - Yakıt cinsi, - Taşıma esnasındaki hava koşulları, - Yük faktörü, - Gıda ürünlerinin ortam sıcaklığı ve soğutulması durumu, - Taşıma için gerekli olan diğer faktörler ve depolama ihtiyacı bulunmaktadır. Ağırlıklı ortalama kaynak mesafesi (km) aşağıdaki şekilde hesaplanmaktadır (Aras ve Uğurluoğlu, 2018): AOKM = m k .d(k)/ m(k) k = Üretim noktası m = Her üretim noktasından tüketiciye ulaştırılan ürünün miktarı (ton) d = Üretim noktasından tüketim noktasına olan mesafe (km) Ağırlıklı ortalama emisyon oranı (CO2 eşd./ton) aşağıdaki şekilde hesaplanmaktadır. AOEMO = m k . d k . e(k)/ m(k) k = Farklı üretim noktaları m = Her üretim noktasından tüketiciye ulaştırılan ürünün miktarı (ton) d = Üretim noktasından tüketim noktasına olan mesafe (km) e= Sera gazı emisyonu miktarı (CO2 eşd./ton.km) Gıdanın üretim yerinden tüketiciye taşınması esnasında açığa çıkan ton cinsinden CO2 eşdeğeri olarak sera gazı miktarı ise aşağıdaki formül ile hesaplanmaktadır. SGM = AOEMO. c. i c= Belirlenen bölgede gıdanın toplam tüketimi (ton) i= Tüketimin ithalattan gerçekleşme yüzdesi (%) olarak ifade edilmektedir. Ağırlıklı ortalama enerji oranı (MJ/ton), gıda maddesinin üretim yerinden tüketiciye ulaştırılması esnasında birim ağırlık başına harcanan enerji olarak tanımlanmakta olup, aşağıdaki formül yardımıyla hesaplanmaktadır. AOENO = m k .q k .d(k)/ m k 1418 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal k = Farklı üretim noktaları m = Her üretim noktasından tüketiciye ulaştırılan ürünün miktarı (Ton) d = Üretim noktasından tüketim noktasına olan mesafe (km) q= Birim nakliyat başına enerji tüketimi (MJ/Ton.km) Gıda mili hesaplanmasında yapılmış farklı araştırmalar bulunmaktadır. Iowa’da komisyoncu ve toptancıların Chicago Terminal pazarına satın aldıkları ürünlerin ve Ferry Plaza çiftliği ürünlerinin tüketiciye ulaştığı miller hesaplanmıştır ve karşılaştırılmıştır. Terminal Pazarı ve Ferry Plaza Çiftçi Pazarı ürünleri için sırasıyla; elmaların 1.555 mil ve 77 mil, domateslerin 1.369 mil ve 117 mil, üzümlerin 3.543 mil ve 134 mil, fasulyelerin 766 mil ve 101 mil, şeftalilerin 1.674 mil ve 173 mil, kış kabağının 781 mil ve 98 mil, yeşillerin 889 mil ve 99 mil, marulların 2.055 mil ve 102 mil yol kat ettiği bulunmuştur (Foodwise, 2024).Gıda ürünleri tedarik zinciri içerisinde (ABD’de) yapılmış bir araştırmaya göre, ortalama 1640-6760 km içerisinde sera gazı oluştuğu tespit edilmiştir. Oluşan emisyon miktarı ABD’nin 8.1 ton CO2 emisyonunun %83’ü olduğu bulunmuştur. Gıda ürünleri içerisinde özellikle kırmızı et, tavuk eti ve balık ürünleri emisyon üretiminde başlıca ürünler olarak bulunmuştur. Bu sonuçlar göz önüne alındığında gıda milinin önemli ölçüde azaltılması için yerel ürün satın almak yerine öncelikle et ürünlerinin tüketiminin azaltılması gerektiği bulunmuştur (Weber and Matthews, 2008).ABD’de Leopold Sürdürülebilir Tarım Merkezi, yerel ürünlerin gıda millerini hesaplamıştır. Gıda milleri üzümde 2143 mil, brokolide 2095 mil, kuşkonmazda 1671 mil, elmada 1555 mil mısırda 813 mil ve bal kabağında 233 mil olarak bulunmuştur (LCSA, 1998). Diğer ürünlerle birlikte ortalama mesafe ise 1518 olarak bulunmuştur. Diğer bir çalışmada ise, yoğun bir şekilde tüketilen 58 ithal ürünün gıda mili hesaplanmıştır. Gıda ürünlerinin ortalaması 4497 kilometre ve 2811 mil mesafe kat ettiği belirlenmiştir. Yıllık bu ürünlerin 51 709 ton sera gazı ürettikleri bulunmuştur (Xuereb, 2005).ABD’de yapılmış bir araştırmada, dünyanın çeşitli bölgelerinden gelen ürünlerin gıda milleri hesaplanmıştır. Karpuzun 1886 mil Meksika’dan, kivinin 5015 mil Şili’den, domatesin 456 mil Kanada’dan, Muzun 2048 mil Panama’dan, armutun 5216 mil Arjantin’den ve ananasın 2048 mil Kosta Rika’dan geldiği bulunmuştur. Bu millerin uzun olmasını başlıca nedeni olarak yakıtlara ulaşılabilir olması ve gelişmiş taşımacılık sistemleri gösterilmiştir (Yee, 2012).Gıda mili hesaplamasında üretim faktörüne dikkat edilmesi gerekmektedir. Yeni Zelanda’dan Londra’ya gönderilen kuzuların, İngiltere’nin kendi kırsallarında üretilmiş kuzulardan dört kat daha fazla enerjide verimli olduğu tespit edilmiştir (Barber et al, 2006). Burada önemli olan kuzu üretiminde kuzunun hangi mesafe veya nereden geldiği değil, nasıl üretildiğidir. Brezilyadan ithal edilerek alınan Alman elma suyunda yerel 1419 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal üretim ve işlemeye göre daha az enerji kullanıldığı bulunmuştur. Almanya’da elmaların enerji yoğun seralarda yetiştirilmesinin gıda mili mesafesini artırdığı saptanmıştır. İthal edilebilecek elma ürünlerinin daha az mile sahip olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır (Blanke and Burdick, 2005).Yüksek gıda miline sahip gıda ürünlerine şüphe ile yaklaşan araştırmacılara göre gıdanın yerelleşmesi veya sadece yerel gıda tüketiminin sonuçları araştırılmıştır. ABD’de yerel ürünlerin talebi karşılayamayacağı, tropik ürünlerin tüketicilere ulaştırılamayacağı ve toplumların sağlık durumunda ciddi etkilerinin olabileceği bulunmuştur (Wilkins, 2009). Gıdanın yerelleşmesi ile küçük üretici birimlerinin oluşmasının, kirlilik, koku, atıkların imhası ve çevresel diğer sorunlara neden olabileceği tahmin edilmiştir (Jones et al, 2004). Bu çalışmalara göre, ihtiyaçlar doğrultusunda farklı bölgelerde yetiştirilen bazı yüksek gıda miline sahip ürünlerin ithalatı ve tüketiminin yapılmasının doğru olduğu bulunmuştur.Tarımsal Ürünlerde Gıda Milleri: Çeşitli Tarımsal Ürünlerden Örnekler ABD’nin gıda endüstrisi tüm fosil yakıt tüketiminin %10’unu oluşturmaktadır. Gıda sisteminin tükettiği enerjinin %21’inin üretim, %14’ünün taşımacılık, %16’sının ürün işleme, %7’sinin paketleme, %4’ünün gıda perakende, %7’sinin restoran-kafe ve %31’inin konut ısıtma için kullanıldığı bulunmuştur. ABD küresel olarak %23’lük emisyon miktarı ile dünyada en büyük emisyon üreticisidir. ABD gıda sisteminin yıllık kullandığı enerji miktarı Fransa’nın yıllık enerji miktarına karşılık gelmektedir (Tablo 1) (Murray, 2005). Tablo 1 ABD Gıda Sisteminin Enerji Kullanımı Alanlar Kullanım Miktarı Üretim %21 Taşımacılık %14 Ürün işleme %16 Paketleme %7 Gıda perakende %4 Restoran ve Kafe %7 Konut ısıtma %31 Toplam %100 Birleşik Krallıkta ürünlerin gıda mili hesaplanması dört ulaşım yöntemine göre incelenmiştir. Gıda milleri 423 ton-km suyolu, 677 ton-km demiryolu, 2890 ton-km karayolu ve 15839 tonkm havayolu olarak bulunmuştur. Hava taşımacılığı, gıda ve diğer malların taşınmasında çok fazla enerji yoğun bir ulaşım yöntemi olarak belirlenmiştir. Hava taşımacılığı, Birleşik Krallıkta 1420 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal %1’lik yer kaplamasına rağmen, ülkede %11’lik bir emisyon ürettiği tespit edilmiştir. Bunun yanı sıra; gürültü, kazalar ve trafik sorunları gibi diğer problemlerle gıda taşımacılığının ekonomik ve sosyal maliyetinin yıllık 9 milyar sterlin veya 18 milyar doları geçtiği saptanmıştır (Tablo 2) (Smith et al, 2005).

ABD-Iowa bölgesinde yapılan araştırmada, yerel ve geleneksel gıda ürünlerinin gıda milleri karşılaştırılmıştır. Yerel gıda ürünlerinin gıda mili toplamı 716 mil ve geleneksel gıda ürünlerinin gıda mili toplamı 25 301 mil olarak bulunmuştur (Tablo 3). Geleneksel gıdaların yerel gıdalara göre 4-17 kat daha fazla yakıt kullandığı ve 5-17 kat daha fazla emisyon ürettiği saptanmıştır (Tablo 4). Bu araştırma ile bölgede fazla enerji için yakıt kullanıldığı da tespit edilmiştir. Taşıma yöntemi göz önüne alındığında bölgesel ürün taşıması için küçük araçlar ve kamyonlar kullanılmaktadır. Küçük kapasiteli araç kullanılmasının fazla sefer, fazla yol ve fazla emisyona neden olduğu da tespit edilmiştir. Gıda taşımacılığında araç türlerine göre verimliliğin değişebileceği belirtilmektedir. 1421 VI.

Çin’de tüketilen bir etin üretimi için dünyanın çeşitli bölgelerindeki üretim materyallerine ihtiyaç duymaktadır. Şekil 1’de baloncuklar gıda üretimi emisyonlarını ve oklar ise gıda kilometresini göstermektedir. Çin’deki et talebini karşılamak için girdiler çeşitli ülkelerden ithal edilmektedir. ABD’de meyve-sebze ve Brezilya’da soya fasulyesi üretimi için karayolu kullanılarak Kanada’dan kimyasallar ithal edilmektedir. Almanya’dan makine ve Avustralya-Endonezya’dan kömür ithal edilmektedir. 1422 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Ülkeler arası bu gıda tedarik zinciri et üretimini sağlamak ve Çin’deki et talebini karşılamak içindir. Üretimin gıda milini artırdığı hipotezinin doğruluğu anlaşılmaktadır. Şekil 1 Çin'de Kırmızı Et Tüketimine İlişkin Tedarik Zinciri Emisyonu (Li et al, 2022) Küresel tedarik zincirinde gıda sisteminin emisyon miktarları hesaplanmıştır. Avrupa ve Çin merkezli ticaret noktaları vurgulanmıştır. Afrika kıtasında önemli bir ticaret miktarının olmadığı da bulunmuştur. Gıda emisyonlarını önemli ölçüde zengin ülkelerin arttırdığı tespit edilmiştir. Düşük gelirli ülkelerin (kişi başı 3000 ABD doları altında) uluslararası gıda kilometrelerinin %12’sini ve emisyonların ise %20’sinden sorumlu oldukları ortaya çıkmıştır. Okyanusya, Kuzey Amerika ve Avrupa dahil zengin ülkelerin gıda kilometreleri ve emisyon miktarları diğer bölgelerden 2.7-2.8 kat daha fazla olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Mt CO2e cinsinden uluslararası gıda mili emisyonlarının ilk 100 ikili akışı (üstte) ve kişi başına kgCO2e cinsinden uluslararası gıda mili emisyonlarının ilk 100 ikili akışı (altta) gösterilmektedir.

Gıda millerinin artması ve emisyon miktarının artmasındaki ana neden havayollarının kullanılması ve kısa mesafede defalarca sefer yapılması olarak bulunmuştur. Gıda ürünlerini ideal gıda mili ve emisyon miktarları ile taşımak için uzun mesafeli denizyolu kullanımının uygun olacağı belirlenmiştir (Tablo 5). 1424 VI.

Ulaştırmada fazla faktörün bulunmasının gıda milini ve emisyon miktarını artırdığı bulunmuştur. Yerel üretilen ve pazarlanan ürünler için ise üç aşamada (üretim ve pazarlama) tamamlanmaktadır. Yerel ürünlerde fazla fosil yakıt, araç, yol ve insan kullanımı olmadığı için gıda mili ve emisyon üretim miktarı düşük kalmaktadır (Tablo 6).

Gıda mili fazla olan ithal elmaların emisyon üretim miktarının da yüksek olduğu bulunmuştur (Şekil 4). 1428 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 4 Almanya’ya İthal Edilen Elmaların Akışı(Taşımacılık ve Gıda Zinciri) (Blanke, 2006) Sonuç ve Öneriler Literatüre belli süre önce (1990-1995) girmiş olan gıda mili kavramı üzerinde çeşitli ve ayrıntılı araştırmalar yapılmıştır. Araştırmalar öncelikle ABD ve Avrupa ülkelerinde ithal edilen ürünler incelenerek devam etmiştir. Gıda mili kavramı sadece mesafe ile ilgilenmektedir. Son gelişmeler ile üretim, işleme, dağıtım, perakende ve tüketim aşamaları da dahil edilerek çevresel, sosyal ve ekonomik maliyetlerde bir bütün olarak ele alınmaktadır. Gıda mili ne kadar yüksek olursa o kadar çevreye olumsuz etkisinin var olduğu bulunmuştur. Ancak bazı ürünlerde yerel ürünlerin gıda mili (üretim emisyon değeri nedeni ile yüksek olması) ithal ürünlerden yüksek olmaktadır. İspanya’nın domates, Almanya’nın elma ve Birleşik Krallığın kuzu örnekleri bu konuda örnek gösterilebilmektedir. Gıda mili konusunda karşılaşılan sorunlar; küresel gıda üreten firmaların sayısının artması, fosil yakıtın ulaşılabilir olması ve aşırı kullanımı, ulaşım sistemlerinin gelişmiş olması ve fazla araç ile seferlerin yapılması, yerel firmaların ürün pazarlamada yetersiz kalması ve pazarda küresel firmaların etkin rol oynaması, üretici ve tüketici açısından öncelikli ilkenin ürün miktarı ve kazanç payı olması, her bölgede her ürünün yetişememesi veya ithalatın zorunlu olması, bazı ürünlerin ithalatının yetiştirilmesine göre düşük mil içermesi (Almanya, İspanya, İngiltere) şeklinde belirtilebilir.Ürünlerde gıda mili miktarını azaltmak için çeşitli öneriler bulunmaktadır. Bunların belli ölçüde uygulanması bile gıda mili ve çevresel etkileri azaltmak konusunda fayda sağlayabilecektir. Bu kapsamda yerel ürün ve üretici pazarlarının tercih edilmesi, mevsimsel yiyeceklerin tüketilmesi, hayvansal ürünlerden et ve süt ürünleri tüketim miktarının azaltılması, genellikle az işlenmiş ve paketlenmiş ürünlerin tercih edilmesi, yerel ve organik ürünlerin tüketimi ve pazarlamasının artırılması söz konusu önerilerden bazılarıdır. 1429 VI.

Bu yöntemler, farmasötik üretim ve kalite kontrolünün farklı yönlerinde yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Önemli uygulamalardan biri, farmasötik ürünlerin etkinliğini ve güvenliğini sağlamak için çok önemli olan tabletlerdeki aktif bileşen içeriğinin tahmin edilmesidir. Kemometrik yöntemler ayrıca üretim hatalarının tespit edilmesinde ve farmasötik ürünlerin genel kalitesinin korunmasında da rol oynar. Çeşitli uygulama alanları arasında, temel bileşen regresyonu (PCR) ve kısmi en küçük kareler regresyonu (PLS) gibi kemometrik yaklaşımlar, farmasötik formülasyonların kantitatif analizinde büyük başarı göstermiştir. Bu derlemede, endüstriyel antibiyotik üretimi ve analizi bağlamında kemometrik yöntemlerin potansiyeline odaklanacağız. Antibiyotikler sağlık hizmetlerinde büyük önem taşımaktadır ve kalite ve etkinliklerinin sağlanması çok önemlidir. Kemometrik yöntemler kullanılarak, üretim sürecini gerçek zamanlı olarak izlemek ve kontrol etmek mümkündür, bu da verimliliğin ve güvenilirliğin artmasına yol açar. Özellikle eritromisin, vankomisin, penisilin, sefalosporin ve amoksisilin gibi antibiyotikler kemometrik analizden büyük ölçüde faydalanabilir. Bir mikro bilgisayar kontrol sistemi, fermantasyon süreçlerinin gerçek zamanlı olarak izlenmesini kolaylaştırarak anormalliklerin ve beklenen modellerden sapmaların erken tespit edilmesini sağlayabilir. Örneğin, eritromisin üretiminde kemometrik yöntemler verimliliği artırabilir ve biyoteknolojik metabolizmada yer alan karmaşık fermantasyon sürecini optimize edebilir. Ayrıca kemometrik teknikler, fermantasyon sırasında istenen ölçüm prosedürlerinin oluşturulmasına olanak tanır. Bu, farmasötik dozaj formlarının belirlenmesine ve tutarlı kalite kontrolünün sürdürülmesine yardımcı olur. Kemometrik yöntemler, fermantasyon sırasındaki hataları anında tespit edip düzelterek antibiyotik üretiminin genel güvenilirliğine ve güvenliğine büyük ölçüde katkıda bulunur.Sonuç olarak, bu derleme, kemometrik yöntemlerin endüstriyel antibiyotik üretimi ve analizindeki pratik uygulamalarına ışık tutmayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu gelişmiş analitik tekniklerin kullanılması, ilaç üreticilerinin süreçlerini kolaylaştırmalarına, ürün kalitesini artırmalarına ve nihayetinde sağlık hizmetlerinin iyileştirilmesine önemli katkılarda bulunmalarına olanak tanır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal STUDIES ON THE USE OF CHEMOMETRIC METHODS IN THE BIOTECHNOLOGICAL PRODUCTION AND ANALYSIS OF ANTIBIOTICS Abstract Chemometric methods have become extremely valuable tools in the pharmaceutical industry, particularly in the past couple of decades. These methods are widely used in different aspects of pharmaceutical manufacturing and quality control. One important application is estimating the active ingredient content in tablets, which is crucial for ensuring the efficacy and safety of pharmaceutical products. Chemometric methods also play a role in detecting production errors and maintaining the overall quality of pharmaceutical products. Chemometric methods such as baseline regression (PCR) and partial least squares regression (PLS) have become established in pharmaceutical content analysis. In this review, we will focus on the potential of chemometric methods in the context of industrial antibiotic production and analysis. Antibiotics are of utmost importance in healthcare, and it is crucial to ensure their quality and effectiveness. By utilizing chemometric methods, it is possible to monitor and control the production process in real time, leading to increased efficiency and reliability. Specifically, antibiotics like erythromycin, vancomycin, penicillin, cephalosporin, and amoxicillin can greatly benefit from chemometric analysis. A microcomputer control system can facilitate the real-time monitoring of fermentation processes, enabling the early detection of anomalies and deviations from expected patterns. For instance, in erythromycin production, chemometric methods can improve efficiency and optimize the complex fermentation process involved in biotechnological metabolism. Additionally, chemometric techniques allow the establishment of desired measurement procedures during fermentation. This aids in determining pharmaceutical dosage forms and maintaining consistent quality control. By promptly identifying and rectifying errors during fermentation, chemometric methods greatly contribute to the overall reliability and safety of antibiotic production. In conclusion, this overview will shed light on the practical applications of chemometric methods in industrial antibiotic production and analysis. The utilization of these advanced analytical techniques allows pharmaceutical manufacturers to streamline their processes, enhance product quality, and ultimately make significant contributions to improved healthcare.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction Chemometrics encompasses a variety of concepts and applications related to data processing. These include descriptive and descriptive statistics, signal processing, experimental design, modeling, calibration, optimization, structure recognition, classification, artificial intelligence methods, image processing, and information and systems theory (Heyden, and Massart 2001). High-throughput experimental studies are based on experimental design and quantitative evaluation methods. These studies are usually conducted using mathematical models or designs. Especially for complex nonlinear systems, artificial intelligence methods, such as artificial neural networks, are widely preferred (Chen 2022). In the field of chemistry, solving industrial and scientific practical problems is very important. In chemistry, values that cannot be measured directly can be determined indirectly. Chemists have developed special techniques and instruments for such measurements. Any data obtained in this way can be converted into information, such as how much of a substance is in a mixture. With modern analytical methods, this data can be collected in large quantities and with high precision (Wang and Xu 2023). Chemometrics has a wide range of applications. In quantitative research, experimental design has a useful structure that encompasses many concepts and applications that can be discussed under the name of optimization and calibration.High-throughput experimental studies are based on experimental design and quantitative evaluation methods (Assubaie, Alnajjar and Naheid 2013). Such studies can be realized by mathematical models or designs. Especially for complex non-linear systems, artificial neural networks are often used as methods of artificial intelligence. In the field of chemistry, the solution of practical problems that arise in industrial and scientific fields is of crucial importance. With modern analytical methods, this data can be collected in large quantities and with high precision (Engel, Buydens, Blanchet 2017). Biotechnological processes are usually characterized by a variety of inputs, outputs and complex correlations between them, including operational and performance parameters. A biotechnological application consists of 15 to 30 steps. These parameters can influence the performance of the application and the product quality (Roggo, Chalus, Maurer, LemaMartinez, Edmond, Jent 2007).Chemometrics offers an effective approach to understanding processes based on complex data sets. The increased use of this approach supports the progressive acceptance of quality through advanced design and process analytical technology in the regulatory and biotechnology industries. 1436 VI.

Applications of chemometrics in industry Application of Chemometric Methods to Antibiotic Production “Erythromycin, Vancomycin, Penicillin, Cephalosporin.” and Their Analysis The analysis of scientific processes and components requires the analysis and understanding of components and processes. In particular, it is essential to identify and monitor the components of complex mixtures. Techniques such as chromatography and spectroscopy are often used for this purpose. Chemometrics is particularly used to analyze complex mixtures and generates large amounts of data using spectroscopic techniques to identify components of biological origin. Chemometrics helps to analyze this data and convert it into meaningful information. Chemometrics also reduces the complexity of the data through data processing and modeling and develops appropriate models for analysis that highlight important information (Yuk 1992). Figure 2: Chemometric Modelling of Biotechnological Processes 1437 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Erythromycin Erythromycin is a macrolide antibiotic discovered in 1952 (Zhang and Qin 2010). Macrolides are a group of antibiotics that prevent bacteria from synthesizing proteins. Erythromycin is useful in the treatment of respiratory diseases, including bronchitis, pneumonia, Legionnaires' disease (a type of lung disease) and diseases caused by conditions such as whooping cough (pertussis; a serious illness that can cause severe coughing), recurrent rheumatic fever (Guay 1996). Its mechanism of action is to stop the growth of bacteria. Erythromycin, which is effective against gramme-positive bacteria, has also been shown to be effective against some gramme-negative bacteria and some other organisms. Figure 3: Molecular Structure of Erythromycin Penicillin Penicillin is the most important antimicrobial agent and dates back to the 1920s. In terms of their mechanism of action, penicillin belongs to the group of inhibitors of cell wall synthesis (Usleber and Märtlbauer 1998). Some types of penicillin are: Amoxicillin, Ampicillin, Cloxacillin, Dicloxacillin, Methicillin, Nafcillin, Oxacillin, Penicillin G, Penicillin V, Ticarcillin, Piperacillin (Rocco, Moloney, O’Beirne, Earley, Berendsen, Furey, and Danaher 2017). Penicillins are used to treat diseases such as ear, throat and sinus infections and to prevent dental infections. These antibiotics can be effective against bacterial infections and play an important role in the treatment of many diseases. Figure 4: Molecular Structure of Penicillin 1438 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Cephalosporins: Cephalosporins are antibiotics from the group of β-lactams and have a bactericidal effect, i.e. they kill bacteria (Bush and Macielag 2010). These properties play an important role in fighting infections. Cephalosporins have a broad spectrum against grammenegative and gramme-positive bacteria. The first and second generation cephalosporins are generally effective against gramme-positive bacteria, while the third generation cephalosporins are more effective against gramme-negative bacteria (García-Rodríguez, Bellido and Sánchez, 1995). Due to their chemical structure, they are similar to penicillins. Their effect is to destroy the bacteria by stopping the synthesis of the bacterial cell wall. Cephalosporins are used for treatment purposes in a variety of areas, from the respiratory tract to the world, from subcutaneous sugar to bone and muscle diseases. They are also effective in treating infections affecting the brain and nervous system, bacterial infections spread through the bloodstream and sexually transmitted diseases such as gonorrhea. Cephalosporins protect against many different bacteria and have become a very popular treatment option in the health sector. Figure 5: Molecular Structure of Cephalosporin Vancomycin: Vancomycin, one of the first bactericidal antibiotics, is synthesized by Amycolatopsis orientalis (Yarlagadda, Sarkar, Manjunath, and Haldar 2015). This microorganism first produces vancomycin A and then synthesizes vancomycin B, which contains gyrocytisin. Vancomycin is a high molecular weight glycopeptide antibiotic. It shows its antibacterial properties by inhibiting the formation of the bacterial cell wall (Lian, Liu, Wang, Xu, Cui, and Bai 2013). It is particularly active against gram-positive bacteria and is effective against organisms such as staphylococci, streptococci, aerobic and anaerobic bacilli and Corynebacterium. Vancomycin achieves its bactericidal effect by interrupting the formation of the N-acetylmuramic acid pentaglycan chain, one of the cell wall components (Guthei 2021). Vancomycin is an important antibiotic that can cure serious and life-threatening infections. It is effective for infections of the pericardium, lungs, meninges and enterobacteria, as well as conditions such as sepsis caused by resistant bacteria (Martin, Alaya, Mallet, Viviand, Ennabli, Said, and De Micco 1994). 1439 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Figure 6: Molecular Structure of Vancomycin Application of chemometric methods to the production and analysis of erythromycin, penicillin, cephalosporin, vancomycin antibiotic species Biotechnological production of erythromycin Erythromycin is produced by the bacterium Streptomyces erythraeus. It is important for biotechnological production. The steps of biotechnological production include the selection of suitable microorganisms, fermentation, optimization of conditions, extraction of the product, purification and production of the final product. This process can be more efficient than that obtained from natural sources and better results can be achieved by genetically modifying the microorganisms. In a study on erythromycin biotechnology (Zeng and LI 2010), Saccharopolyspora erythraea strains were found to control the amount of enzymes that enable the biotransformation of erythromycin D to Er-A (Liu 2008). The main objective of this study was to use metabolic engineering approaches to increase the production of Er-A and improve its purity in the experiments, it was determined that adding corn sump liquor to the 50-litre fermenter increased Er-A production, and furthermore, the maximum Er-A production was 8.196 U/mL by 191-fold. This value is 81.8% higher than the control group (control class 184 times 4.507 U/mL) (Zeng and LI 2010). It was also observed that Er-B impurities were completely eliminated and Er-C impurities were reduced. Chemometric Studies on Erythromycin Erythromycin estolate was characterized by thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry. Compatibility tests were carried out with four different incompatibilities such as magnesium stearate, sodium starch glycolate, povidone and mannitol and possible 1440 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal incompatibilities were analyzed (Daniel and Trevisan 2021). Potential thermal mismatches were identified using Pearson correlation coefficients and simulated and experimental thermogravimetric curves were compared. An r(2) Table 1 value of about 0.91 for mixtures of magnesium stearate and mannitol shows that there is communication. Dynamic thermal FT-IR spectroscopy and MCR-ALS analysis of atomic particles to allow separation of chemical classes without the mass loss observed in thermogravimetric analysis. These techniques have successfully detected incompatibilities between erythromycin and magnesium stearate and mannitol, as well as between povidone and sodium starch glycolate. Eksipiyans Magnesium stearat and Mannitol 2 Pearson correlation coefficient (r ) ~ 0,91 Table 1: Value of Eksipiyans for Mixtures. An analytical method developed for the analysis of mixtures of antibacterial drugs was investigated. The UV absorption spectra of mixtures containing norfloxacin, tinidazole, erythromycin and trimethoprim show a clear spectral overlap. Chemometric techniques such as first derivative of zero crossing (D-1), classical least squares (CLS) regression analysis and principal component regression (PCR) can be used for quantitative analysis of drugs, including norfloxacin-tinidazole mixtures and trimethoprim-tinidazole mixtures (Mohamed, Abdelmageed, and Refaat 2007). The methods developed are in agreement with the results of the chemometric and colorimetric methods and show that the investigated drugs can be accurately determined in binary mixtures and commercial dosage forms. These methods are recognized as an effective tool for the analysis of antibacterial drug mixtures.Ren's 2008 study used near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy to quantify the amounts of active ingredients in drug samples. In this block, four different GA-RBF network models are developed using genetic diseases for the diversity of RBF networks. GA-RBF networks achieve the best results according to SNV. The same structures were used in the quantitative analysis of erythromycin ethyl succinate powder samples. Thanks to the global search capabilities of GA, the risk of jamming at local minima was reduced. It was experimentally demonstrated that GA-RBF networks performed better compared to conventional RBF networks. It has been shown that SNV spectra have the lowest AIC value of GA-RBF network and SNV correction can achieve satisfactory results for the application of GA-RBF network.Marcello and Trevisan (2020) investigated the compatibility between ERY and excipients by thermal analysis. TG curves were important to identify potential interactions. Chemical incompatibilities were investigated by FT-IR on the hotplate, but PCA did not confirm the incompatibilities. MCR-ALS confirmed 1441 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal the presence of five major components. No new degradation products were detected in the mixture of erythromycin and mannitol, but the deconvolution method confirmed the change in erythromycin concentration. The low correlation between ERY and magnesium stearate indicated incompatibility ERY + magnesium stearate ΔHfusion/J g-1 39.1 ± 0.9c (Silva, Trevisan, and Garcia 2020).An easy-to-use and reliable reversed-phase liquid chromatography (LC) spectrophotometric method was developed for the detection of erythromycin stearate (Elkady 2011). The method involved analyses using spectrophotometry, spectrofluorometry, nearinfrared spectroscopy and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Two spectrophotometric methods were used to examine the colored product formed when erythromycin stearate (12 M) reacts with perchloric acid.The spectrophotometric method was used for simultaneous and inverse quantification. Other spectrophotometric methods used consist of three separate chemometric techniques: classical least squares (CLS), inverse least squares (ILS), principal component regression (PCR) and partial least squares (PLS). It is also used to separate and analyze strongly overlapping spectra.In addition, the absorbance values of zero degree and derivative spectra were measured at many points in the lymphatic path, spectral interferences between erythromycin and its colored product, spectral interferences between erythromycin and its colored product, in the first spectrophometric method or spectrometric techniques, namely classical least squares, principal component regression and partial least squares regression. The most common methods for solving spectral interference between other components ERS are classical least squares, inverse least squares, principal component regression and partial least squares. Optimal Control of Erythromycin Fermentation Processes The fermentation process used in the production of erythromycin was developed by a special pattern optimization method. This method was effectively utilized in erythromycin production units in a pharmaceutical manufacturing plant (Zhu, Lu, and Xu 1998). The effects of important factors such as temperature, pressure, pH value and air flow during the production process were analyzed in detail. The dissolved oxygen content and the condition of the fermenters were also measured using appropriate sensors. The temperature and pH values were intermittently adjusted according to the fermentation status using a CS-91 programmable digital controller. The microcomputerised feeding system has shown that computerized feeding can improve the fermentation process compared to manual feeding. This control system lays a solid foundation for optimizing the erythromycin fermentation process through pattern recognition. Various pattern recognition methods were used to create a pattern space that can well represent the 1442 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal process. The resulting process data was processed with an artificial neural network (ANN) and used as input for this system (Mei, Yang, Shu, Jiang, Liu, and Liao 2016).The PLS method shows how the samples are represented in a two-dimensional pattern space as a result of analyzing the pre-processed data. As can be seen in the figure, the samples are almost completely separated thanks to the developed method. The PLS method shows that the erythromycin fermentation process is a suitable modeling method for pattern recognition. The arrow in the figure indicates the direction of optimization. This means that the top right region corresponds to high chemical activity. The two points on the plane (i.e. points A and B) are chosen intentionally. Penicillin Biotechnological production of penicillin. Penicillin is an antibiotic that is used to treat bacterial infections. The biotechnological production process usually involves the fermentation of fungi such as Penicillium chrysogenum. In this process, the microorganisms are grown in suitable culture media and fermentation takes place under strict control (Srirangan, Orr, Akawi, Westbrook, Moo-Young, and Chou 2013). Once produced, penicillin is collected, purified and processed into various medicines. Once produced, penicillin is collected, purified and processed into various medicines. After penicillin production, this valuable antibiotic is collected, purified and integrated into various drug formulations. Biotechnological methods of production can offer higher efficiency than conventional methods, and genetic engineering techniques can further increase the production capacity of penicillin. The study “Integrated Condition Monitoring and Control of Feed Batch Fermentation Processes” shows how important the use of DCS models is in such fermentation processes (Zhang and Lennox 2004). This modeling allows for more effective control of production plants by accurately assessing the factors affecting the quality of the fermentation process. Moreover, the inclusion of predictive control mechanisms contributes to a more effective diagnosis of control systems, improving error analysis. Chemometric Studies on Penicillin The study focused on the combination of chemometrics and laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) to determine the conditions of penicillin production (Wang 2022). The aim was to monitor quality differences in the production of the same type of drugs by different manufacturers. By proposing a LIBS-based method, it was highlighted as an important step to identify problems that may affect drug quality and identify production. The study examined three different penicillin strains produced by 10 different manufacturers. The LIBS spectra were 1443 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal used to identify the characteristic lines of the penicillin species. Three different classification methods were used to identify the different producers of the penicillin species. The best classification result was obtained with the RF-ANN model with an accuracy of 100%.The results show that the LIBS technique can be used for product quality control in the manufacture of penicillin. An FIA system with factorial design was investigated for penicillin determination. In this method, penicillinase [E.C.] was deposited on silica gel in the reactor where production took place. 3.5.2.6], the enzyme was immobilized and analyzed (Lima and Lins 1997). A potentiometric FIA system with a statistical experimental design was developed and evaluated based on the effects of certain parameters on the signal response and the number of measurements per hour.In the study, using the three-factor factorization technique, parameters such as reactor length, carrier flow rate and sample volume were investigated in two stages to determine the best operating conditions. The pure measurement error was estimated using unequal replicates. The balance between the best response signal and the number of detections per hour and the ideal operating conditions were determined when the reactor length was 1.5 cm, the carrier flow rate was 2.2 mL/min and the sample volume was 150 µL. It was determined that a shorter reactor length and a lower flow rate led to an increase in the reaction signal (reference). It was found that the sample volume had no effect on the reaction. An interaction between the reactor length and the flow rate of the carrier was observed, and it was determined that the interaction was greater for relatively short reactor lengths.Due to the stability of the immobile silica surface of the enzyme, approximately 45 samples per hour could be analyzed. The system was tested for 73 days with a total of 800 measurements. It was found that the environmental conditions applied caused a decrease in activity of 8.9 and a recovery of 98% (Kubota 1997).The detection of penicillin G salts in pharmaceutical mixtures was carried out using FT-IR spectroscopy with a chemometric approach. Due to the complexity of the content, partial least squares (PLS) and radial basis function-partial least squares (RBF-PLS) methods were used and orthogenic signal correction (OSC) was pre-processed. The results showed that OSC is an effective preprocessing method for both linear (PLS) and nonlinear (RBF-PLS) models. Optimal Control of Penicillin Fermentation Processes The combination of PyMS and ANN was used to measure the penicillin content in Penicillium chrysogenum strains and the ampicillin content in Escherichia coli samples (Goodacre 1995). Four P. chrysogenum strains were analyzed with PyMS. Data obtained using the standard backpropagation algorithm were subjected to sigmoidal squashing. Linear regression methods did 1444 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal not provide accurate predictions.ANNs are highly capable of predicting ampicillin quantities and were accurate for values beyond the concentration data for which they were trained. Principal component analysis was effective in distinguishing between P. chrysogenum strains and identifying phenotypic differences in their growth stages. Sampling with homogenized agar plugs was found to speed up the analysis process. Cephalosporin Biotechnological production of cephalosporin The production process of cephalosporin antibiotics is carried out with the fungus Cephalosporium. This process involves a number of steps, starting with the selection of the appropriate microorganism, creating the necessary environment for fermentation, carrying out the fermentation process, extracting and purifying the resulting product, and finally bringing it into drug form (Wilhelm 1991). The improvement of microorganisms through genetic engineering methods allows the production of cephalosporins with higher yields and new properties, thus improving the production processes in the pharmaceutical industry.Sometimes chromatography is used to determine the composition and purity of a substance. Nonlinear regression analysis can generate process parameter effects to determine optimum values. Multivariate calibration techniques can represent and optimize relationships between multiple process variables. Chemometric methods used in the production of cephalosporins from Cephalosporium fungi are important for monitoring, controlling and optimizing the production process. These methods can be used to determine product quality, improve process efficiency and reduce production costs (Cruz, Pan, Giordano, Araujo, and Hokka 2004). Spectroscopic analysis, for example, evaluates product quality by quickly determining the chemical structures and components of samples.These approaches foster efficiency, stability and better quality of cephalosporin production processes. Also, if there are continuous monitoring systems set up with controls on them as well, then any potential problems may get caught earlier on in the production process so that it doesn’t stop all together. Chemometric Studies on Cephalosporins pH-sensitive Bio-FETs have been developed for the analysis of glucose, urea and cephalosporin C and have been used in various biological systems For example, GOD-FETs for glucose analysis have been integrated into the EVA system and used to monitor glucose concentration in microbial cultivation processes. Urease-FET-FIA has been used to monitor urea concentration and in combination with GOD-FET-FIA to monitor urea and glucose concentration in the cultivation of S. cerevisiae. These sensors are suitable for online 1445 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal monitoring and control of media component concentrations. However, experiments are required to determine the optimal conditions in different biological systems, as pH and buffer capacity vary and high substrate concentrations may require dilution (Brand 1991). Optimal Control of Cephalosporin Fermentation Processes Cephalosporin C biosynthesis was investigated by Cephalosporium acremonium. Higher productivity was achieved in continuous stirred tank bioreactors compared to batch reactors. The pH control increased cephalosporin C production. Experiments were performed with free cells and the typical time course of the bioprocess was determined. During the high growth rate, glucose is preferred, while sucrose is metabolized more slowly (Hokka 2001). In this phase, growth is somewhat inhibited, while a higher production rate is achieved. The kinetic model was elaborated using linear and non-linear regression analysis. The effective diffusivity of oxygen was determined and compared with values from the literature. The remaining kinetic constants were determined by solving non-linear differential equations. This method allowed the determination of the process behavior together with the concentration profiles of the components in the bioparticles.Industrial cephalosporin batch fermentation has some advantages for a "normal operating conditions" (NOC) model with fewer prediction parameters, requiring little memory and representing multidimensional data at the same time. A total of 20 groups of normal cephalosporin fermentations were used to develop the NOC models (Yuan 2009). Chemometric Studies on Cephalosporin Three common cephalosporin solutions, such as ceftriaxone, cefotaxime sodium and cefazolin sodium, were analyzed for quantification using Raman spectroscopy and chemometric methods (Lin 2013). Partial least-squares regression models were created on the basis of pre-processed spectral data. High correlation coefficients and low prediction errors indicate that Raman spectroscopy is a suitable method for the quantification of cephalosporin solutions. Preprocessed partial least squares (OSC) PLS models gave positive results in determining the concentrations of mixed triplet cephalosporin solutions. This study demonstrates that by combining Raman spectroscopy with the PLS regression technique, the concentrations of the components of cephalosporin mixtures can be accurately and rapidly determined.A borondoped diamond electrode was used for the first time for the sensitive and selective analysis of cefixime, a third-generation cephalosporin, using the square-wave voltammetry technique (Keskin 2019). The effect of electrode pretreatment on the current response was investigated. The best signals were obtained by anodic and cathodic electrochemical pretreatment of the 1446 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal electrode and subsequent polishing with a polishing pad. In a 0.1 mol dm-3 H2SO4 supporting electrolyte, Cefixime showed an irreversible and diffusion-controlled oxidation peak at +1.25 V (Ag/AgCl vs. 3 mol dm-3 NaCl). With the best instrumental conditions and pretreatment procedure, the linear calibration curve ranged between 2.2 × 10-6 mol dm-3 to 1.3 × 10-4 mol dm-3 having a detection limit of 5.9 × 10-7 mol dm-3. This method can also be used for analyzing cefixime from pharmaceutical formulations when other methods fail because it gives consistent results and is ecofriendly in nature.Cephalosporins are the most commonly prescribed β-lactam antibiotics (Elbashir 2015). Spectrophotometry is probably the most suitable analytical technique for routine analysis as it is simple, inexpensive and widely used in quality control laboratories. In recent years, several papers have been presented on the development and validation of spectrophotometric methods for the analysis of cephalosporins in pharmaceutical formulations. Most of the methods reported are visible spectrophotometric methods. These methods are based on the formation of a colored product due to charge transfer and reaction of cephalosporins with oxidant reagents or ion pair formation. The methods have been used for the quantitative determination of the drug in pure form and in commercial preparations. Common excipients do not interfere with the determination. VANCOMYCIN Biotechnological production of Vancomycin To produce vancomycin an effective antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections through biotechnology, various procedures should be followed. Initially, it is necessary to choose a proper strain of Streptomyces orientalis and create the right environment for fermentation. It is essential to check closely and control strictly the growth of bacteria as well as the amount of produced vancomycin in each stage during fermentation so that they will remain at their best condition always until fermentation completes. Once done with fermenting, purify collected vancomycins until forms pure enough are achieved. Therefore, different pharmaceutical preparations like tablets or injectable solutions can be made from them (Koller, Hesse, Salerno, Reiterer and Braunegg 2011).Biotechnology can make more of vancomycin than any natural method. Furthermore, genetic engineering may alter microorganisms so that they produce vancomycin more effectively or make the drug acquire novel characteristics. This is a key step in making pharmaceutical-grade vancomycin. Chemometric Studies on Vancomycin Streptomyces species are ubiquitous organisms of nature and can produce many different bioactive compounds. Among them, of great interest, are the glycopeptides, which form the 1447 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal basis of drugs like vancomycin, effective to treat antibiotic-resistant staphylococcal infections. Vancomycin is vital in the fight against common and difficult-to-treat infections in hospitals. Vancomycin is usually produced by bacteria such as Amycolatopsis orientalis. To determine the optimal production conditions, various factors are evaluated and the interaction of these factors is studied by statistical analysis. For example, factors such as pH, temperature, size of the inoculum, agitation speed and aeration influence the efficiency of vancomycin production (Aly and Tolba 2021).By determining optimal production conditions, a valuable antibiotic such as vancomycin can be produced more efficiently. This is important to meet demand and reduce costs. However, given the complexity of the process and the naturally occurring diversity, continuous research and development is required to improve production efficiency (de Castro and Sanches 2017). Genetic engineering and improved culture media could yield antibiotics such as vancomycin more cheaply. Such developments pave the way to develop new ways of fighting against resistant bacteria, thus enabling more production and distribution of the lifesaving drugs. Improved access to treatment will therefore be more easily acquired by patients treated for resistant infections.The study focused on the optimization of culture conditions for vancomycin production of strain Amycolatopsis orientalis KCCM-10836P. It was noted that pH and dissolved oxygen tension (DOT), which were established as most critical factors, was identified. It was determined that the production of vancomycin reached its maximum under the conditions of pH control at 7.0 and under DOT in the range of 20-30%. Using various carbon and nitrogen sources, different sources of carbon and nitrogen were tested. The highest production of vancomycin was achieved with the use of dextrin as the source of carbon. The nitrogen sources, in turn, shown a strong influence on the specific vancomycin content. The production of red metabolite was detected under low oxygen tension conditions. It was found that red metabolite production slowed down vancomycin production when DOT was below 20%. Ultimately, vancomycin production has been successfully transferred from a laboratory to pilot and plant scale. Thus, the strain A. orientalis KCCM-10836P has huge potential for commercial production of vancomycin. Further optimization of culture conditions and the choice of highly productive strains may bring increased productivity and efficiency in industrial vancomycin production (Oh and Lee 2007). Chemometric Studies on Vancomycin HPLC/UHPLC studies in this field are very limited. HPLC methods coupled with mass spectrometry or tandem mass spectrometry detectors are generally used for the detection of vancomycin in biological fluids or tissues. There is a method for the quantification of 1448 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal vancomycin and ceftazidime in cerebrospinal fluid using an internal standard called thienol. This method gave detection times of 7 minutes and 11 minutes for vancomycin and ceftazidime, respectively. Quantification methods for vancomycin, imipenem and cefepime in human plasma were also developed.The primary standard used was cefuroxime and the analysis time was spread over 30 minutes. Theoretical plate numbers and symmetry factor values were measured for three solutes (benzoic acid, N,N-dimethylaniline and vancomycin) in chromatographic systems (using different stationary phases and mobile phase compositions). These measurements were performed to classify the systems and to investigate the possible variations of the columns and eluent compositions.The mobile phases consisted of acetonitrile or methanol as exchanger and K H2PO4-H3PO4 or triethylamine-H3PO4 as aqueous buffer. The organic content of the mobile phases was adjusted so that the log rf (logarithm of the retention factor) of the tested compounds was between 0.1 and 1.3 for all chromatographic systems and test compounds (Heberger 2005). The plate numbers and symmetry factors were analyzed by principal component analysis (PCA). The input data were organized into 13 x 28 data matrices for the plate numbers and symmetry factors separately for all compositions. Two principal components accounting for at least 98% of the total variance were retained in the model. This analysis showed which chromatographic systems (stationary and mobile phases) gave the same or similar chromatographic parameters (De Zan 2017).PCA provides a way to switch chromatographic systems and columns. Monofunctional test compounds provide only approximate information on the usefulness, classification and replacement of HPLC systems when multifunctional solutes are to be separated. Using PCA, it is possible to determine the potential trade-offs between chromatographic systems and columns. PCA shows which chromatographic systems (column and mobile phases) give the same or similar chromatographic parameters using three different types of test compounds.Characterization of Nonribosomal Peptide Antibiotic Solid Dispersion Formulation with Process Analytical Technology Sensors", the focus of the research was to characterize and evaluate the variability of an amorphous vancomycin (VCM) solid dispersion (SD) using a crystalline polyethylene glycol (PEG-6000) carrier (Khan 2013). For this purpose, it was aimed to determine the percentage values of the compositions using the non-destructive method of process analytical sensors (PAT). SD was prepared using heat fusion method and characterized in terms of physicochemical and spectral properties. Improved dissolution was observed in these formulations, while the crystallinity of PEG-6000 decreased, indicating that the drug is present in dissolved and dispersed form in the polymer. The homogeneity of the SD formulations was 1449 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal also confirmed by chemical NIR imaging data. Principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least squares (PLS) methods were applied to the NIR and PXRD data to quantify the drug and carrier. The PLS models developed for both data sets had high correlation coefficients (>0.9934) and low mean square error and standard deviation values, indicating good predictive ability. The model based on NIR and PXRD was able to predict the amount of PEG-6000 two times more accurately than the VCM. In summary, the resolution of drug from SD increased with decreasing crystallinity of PEG-6000 and the chemometric models showed that the PAT sensor was suitable for simultaneous estimation of VCM and PEG-600 content."A method for the determination of two antibiotics prescribed for the treatment of nosocomial infections, linezolid and meropenem, in plasma and urine", using micellar liquid chromatography. This innovative method for determining the concentrations of linezolid and meropenem in plasma and urine uses crystalline polyethylene glycol (PEG-6000) as a carrier.The biological fluids, plasma and urine, were diluted in the mobile phase, filtered and injected directly without an extraction step (Heberger 2005). Both antibiotics were eluted in <15 minutes using a C18 column and a phosphate-buffered mobile phase in isocratic mode. Absorption was detected at 255 nm for linezolid and 310 nm for meropenem. Using chemometric techniques, an analysis was performed to study the effect of the concentrations of sodium dodecyl sulfate and methanol on the retention times of these two chemicals in the chromatography.The method was highlighted as it requires only small amounts of toxic and volatile solvents and can be perform quickly. Consequently, this method can be used for the rapid and efficient determination of antimicrobial drugs in plasma and urine. The results of accuracy and precision were at an acceptable level and the method is suitable for routine analysis in a clinical laboratory CONCLUSION The quantitative and statistical aspects of all the investigated methods in the production and preparation of antibiotic species have the advantages of simplicity, precision, accuracy and ease of use and therefore the proposed methods can be used for quality control in the laboratories of production and dosage forms of all the mentioned antibiotic species. It has been shown that the chemometric procedures performed for all fermentation processes can be easily implemented in a comparative simulation and that the procedure can provide an accurate inference of quality variables such as biomass concentration, which is difficult to measure with online sensors. The relevant results of pattern recognition and refinement process optimization tests have shown that the optimal target, chemical efficiency, can be significantly increased by adapted 1450 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal techniques. All the proposed methods have the advantages of simplicity, precision, accuracy and convenience for separation and quantification and can be used to study their dosage forms. Therefore, the proposed methods can be used for quality control of the indicated drugs in normal laboratories. 1451 VI.

Çalışma, Mayıs 2022Temmuz 2022 tarihlerinde çalışmaya katılmayı gönüllü kabul etmiş, 18-25 yaşlarında 134 üniversite öğrencisi üzerinde yürütülmüştür. Çalışmaya dahil edilen tüm öğrencilere bir anket formu, 24 saatlik besin tüketim kaydı ve fiziksel aktivite formu uygulanmıştır. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde SPSS 27.0 programı kullanılmıştır. Araştırmaya yaş ortalaması 21,7±2,5 olan 22 erkek ve 112 kız öğrenci olmak üzere toplamda 134 kişi katılmıştır. Katılımcıların %44’ü dördüncü sınıf öğrencilerinden oluşmaktadır. Beslenme için aylık ortalama bütçe değerlendirildiğinde %55,2’sinin 300-1000 TL cevabını verdiği görülmüştür. Öğrencilerin %71,6’sının üç ana öğün tükettiği, %40,3’ünün öğle öğününü atladığı, %42,5’inin hafta 1-3 kez dışarda yemek yediği, %47’sinin doğru beslenme bilgilerinin davranış durumlarını sıklıkla etkilediği, %42,5’inin etiket okuma alışkanlığının bazen olduğu belirlenmiştir. Öğrencilerin günlük ortalama su tüketimlerinin 1,8±0,7 litre olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Öğrencilerin %7,5’i fiziksel olarak aktif olmayanlardan, %63,4’ü fiziksel aktivite düzeyi düşük olanlardan ve %29,1’i fiziksel aktivite düzeyi yeterli olanlardan oluşmaktadır. Toplam fiziksel aktivite düzeyi ise 2546,2±2159,8 MET-dk/haftadır. Öğrencilerin enerji ve besin ögesi alım miktarları ile fiziksel aktivite düzeyleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ilişki saptanmamasına rağmen (p>0.05) posa, A vitamini, E vitamini, B1, B2, B6, folat, C vitamini, potasyum, kalsiyum, magnezyum ve demir alımının fiziksel olarak aktif olmayan öğrencilerde daha düşük düzeylerde olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak bu kesitsel çalışmada yer alan beslenme ve diyetetik öğrencilerinin çoğunluğunun düşük fiziksel aktivite düzeyine olduğu sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca beslenme durumları dikkate alındığında, öğün atlama, yeterli miktarda su içmeme, ev/yurt dışında besin tercih etme gibi bazı yanlış alışkanlıklara sahip oldukları saptanmıştır. Bu sonuçlar yeterli ve dengeli beslenme ile düzenli fiziksel aktiviteyi kapsayan sağlıklı yaşam tarzı konusunda bireylerin daha çok bilinçlendirilmesi gerektiğini göstermektedir. Ülkemizde özellikle beslenme ve sağlık alanında eğitim gören öğrencilerin yaşam tarzlarını değerlendirecek ve bu anlamda hatalı davranışların değişimi için müdahaleler planlayacak kapsamlı çalışmalara ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EVALUATION OF NUTRITIONAL STATUS AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY LEVELS IN NUTRITION AND DIETETICS DEPARTMENT STUDENTS Abstract This study aimed to evaluate relationship between nutritional status and physical activity levels in nutrition and dietetics department students. Study was conducted on 134 university students aged 18-25, who voluntarily agreed to participate between May and July 2022. A survey form, 24-hour food consumption record and physical activity form were applied. SPSS 27.0 program was used to evaluate data. A total of 134 people, 22 male and 112 female students, with an average age of 21.7±2.5, participated in research. 44% of participants are fourth grade students. 55.2% answered 300-1000 TL for average monthly budget for nutrition, 71.6% of the students consume three main meals, 40.3% skip lunch, 42.5% eat out 1-3 times a week, 47% say that correct nutrition information often affects their behavior and 42.5% of them sometimes had the habit of reading labels. Students' average daily water consumption was 1.8±0.7 liters. 7.5% of students are physically inactive, 63.4% are those with low physical activity levels, and 29.1% are those with sufficient physical activity levels. Total physical activity level is 2546.2±2159.8 MET-min/week. Intake of fiber, vitamin A, vitamin E, B1, B2, B6, folate, vitamin C, potassium, calcium, magnesium and iron was significantly higher (p>0.05). It was found to be at lower levels in students who were not physically active. As a result, majority of nutrition and dietetics students in this cross-sectional study had low physical activity levels. In addition, they have some wrong habits such as skipping meals, not drinking enough water, and choosing to eat outside of home/dormitory. Individuals should be made more aware of a healthy lifestyle that includes adequate and balanced nutrition and regular physical activity. Comprehensive studies are needed to evaluate lifestyles of students, especially those studying in field of nutrition and health, and to plan interventions to change erroneous behaviors in this sense. Keywords: Healthy life, nutritional status, physical activity level, university students 1458 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Üniversite dönemi ergenliğin son dönemleri ile yetişkinliğin ilk döneminin başladığı bir geçiş dönemidir. Gençler aile ortamından ayrıldıklarında stres düzeyleri artmakta ve buna bağlı olarak beslenme durumları da değişmektedir. Dış etkenlerden daha fazla etkilenerek, kendi özgür seçimlerini ön plana çıkarmaya başlamaktadır (Akdevelioğlu & Yörüsün, 2019). Bu dönemde öğrencilerin yeni bir disipline uyum sağlamalarının yanı sıra, daha hızlı yaşam temposu da sağlıksız ve düzensiz beslenme davranışlarını artırmaktadır (Kartal ve ark., 2017). Bu bakımdan üniversite yaşamı, beslenme ve yaşam tarzı alışkanlıklarının oluştuğu önemli bir dönem olup, obezite ve buna bağlı kronik hastalıkların gelişiminde uzun vadeli sonuçlar doğurabilmektedir (Mahfouz ve ark., 2016; Kapinos ve ark., 2014 ). Üniversite döneminde öğrencilerin beslenme alışkanlıkları ve fiziksel aktiviteleri olumsuz etkilenebilmektedir (Calestine ve ark., 2017; Beaudry ve ark., 2019). Öğrenciler genellikle besinlerini kantinlerden, yemekhaneden ya da dışarıda bir restorandan temin etmektedirler. Kantinde bulunan yiyecekler genellikle hijyenik olmayan koşullarda pişirilmekte, pişirme işlemi sırasında da temel besin maddelerinin çoğu yok olmakta ve dolayısıyla öğrencilerin besin ögesi gereksinimlerini karşılayamamaktadır (Priya ve Sinha, 2020). Bu nedenle öğrencilerin üniversite döneminde sağlıksız ve enerji açısından yoğun besin tüketimini arttırıp, sağlıklı ve besin değeri açısından zengin besin alımını azaltması beslenme kalitelerinde genel bir düşüşe neden olmaktadır (Beaudry ve ark., 2019). Birçok çalışma, üniversite öğrencilerinin büyük bir kısmının kötü beslenme ve fiziksel aktivite eksikliği gibi sağlıksız yaşam tarzı davranışları ile beslenme durumlarının kötü olduğunu vurgulamaktadır (Blake ve ark., 2017; Calamidas ve Crowell, 2018; Bernardo ve ark., 2016; Deliens ve ark., 2013; Pengpid ve ark., 2015). Üniversite öğrencilerinin yetersiz beslenme ve yetersiz fiziksel aktivite durumlarına katkıda bulunan ortak faktörler arasında stres, yoğun programlar, alışılmış davranışlar ve sosyal medya yer almaktadır (Calamidas & Crowell, 2018; Sogari ve ark., 2018). Zemzemoğlu ve ark. (2019), sağlık bilimleri fakültesi öğrencileri arasında yüksek düzeyde ana öğün atlama ve fazla atıştırmalık tüketimi bulmuşlardır. Ayrıca Arslan'ın (2016) çalışmasında bu öğrencilerin fiziksel olarak aktif olmadığı saptanmıştır. Ayrıca yeterli su içmeme ve hazır besin tercih etme gibi alışkanlıkların da bu dönemde arttığı belirlenmiştir (Arslan ve ark., 2016).Beslenme ve Diyetetik Bölümü gibi sağlık ve besin ile ilgili programlara kayıtlı üniversite öğrencilerinin, çalışma alanları ve aldıkları derslerin niteliği göz önüne alındığında, akranlarına göre daha iyi beslenme alışkanlıklarına sahip olmaları düşünülmektedir. (Rivera Medina ve ark., 2020). Dolayısıyla bu öğrencilerin öğrenimleri sırasında edindikleri bilgileri, beslenme alışkanlıklarını 1459 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ve yaşam tarzlarını iyileştirecek şekilde uygulayabilmeleri beklenmektedir. Ancak Rizo-Baeza ve ark. (2014) tarafından İspanya Alicante Üniversitesi Beslenme ve Diyetetik Bölümü üniversite öğrencileri arasında yürütülen bir çalışma, makro ve mikro besin ögelerinin tüketiminin beslenme kurallarına uymadığını, beslenmeyle ilgili bilginin varlığının sağlıklı beslenme ve yaşam tarzına ilişkin karar almayı etkilemediğini göstermiştir (Rizo-Baeza ve ark., 2014).Geleceğin sağlık profesyonelleri olmak üzere sağlık ile ilgili bölümlerde eğitim gören üniversite öğrencileri aynı zamanda toplumda sağlıklı davranışları eğitmek ve teşvik etmekle de görevlendirileceklerdir. Beslenme ile ilgili programlara kayıtlı öğrencilerin de bu bağlamda, beslenme kavramlarının edinilmesi ve öğrenilmesi açısından diğer çalışma alanlarına göre avantajlı olmaları ve akademik programlarının bu konuda yeterlikler sağlaması nedeniyle sağlıklı beslenme alışkanlıklarını uygulama konusunda daha iyi bir konumda olmaları beklenmektedir. Ancak geleceğin sağlık profesyoneli olma yolunda eğitim alan üniversite öğrencilerinin beslenme ve fiziksel aktivite davranışları hakkında çok az şey bilinmektedir. Bu nedenle bu çalışmanın amacı, Beslenme ve Diyetetik Bölümü öğrencilerinde beslenme durumu ve fiziksel aktivite düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkinin değerlendirilmesidir. Yöntem Araştırmanın Yeri, Zamanı ve Örneklem Seçimi Bu çalışma, Mayıs 2022-Temmuz 2022 tarihleri arasında Ankara Üniversitesi Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi, Beslenme ve Diyetetik Bölümü’nde eğitim almakta olan çalışmaya katılmayı gönüllü olarak kabul etmiş, 18-25 yaş arasındaki 134 öğrenci üzerinde yürütülmüştür. Çalışmaya gönüllü olmayan, 18 yaşının altında ve 25 yaşının üstünde, gebe ve emziklilik döneminde olan ve herhangi bir psikolojik hastalığı olup psikolojik ilaç kullanan bireyler dahil edilmemiştir. Verilerin Toplanması Çalışmaya dahil edilen tüm öğrencilere sosyo-demografik özelliklerini sorgulayan anket formu, günlük enerji ve besin ögesi alımını değerlendirmek için 24 saatlik geriye dönük besin tüketim kaydı, fiziksel aktivite düzeyini saptamak için Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Anketi Kısa Formu uygulanmıştır. Besin Tüketim Durumunun Saptanması Katılımcıların günlük enerji ve besin ögesi alımları 24 saatlik hatırlatma yöntemi kullanılmasıyla oluşturulan besin tüketim kayıtlarından değerlendirilmiştir. Besin tüketim kayıtlarına dair verilerin değerlendirilmesinde Türkiye’de uygulanan beslenme programı beslenme bilgi sistemleri paket programı (BEBİS) programı ile katılımcıların günlük ortalama makro ve mikro besin ögeleri değerleri hesaplanmıştır 1460 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Anketi Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Anketi (UFAA) 15-65 yaş aralığındaki katılımcıların fiziksel aktivite düzeylerini belirlemek amacıyla Craig ve ark. (2003) tarafından geliştirilmiştir (Craig, 2003). UFAA’nın Türkiye’de geçerlik ve güvenirlik çalışması Öztürk (2005) tarafından yapılmıştır. Bütün aktivitelerin değerlendirilmesinde her bir aktivitenin tek seferde en az 10 dk yapılıyor olması ölçüt alınmaktadır. Dakika, gün ve MET değeri çarpılarak “METdakika/hafta’’ olarak bir skor elde edilmektedir. Fiziksel aktivite düzeyleri, fiziksel olarak aktif olmayan (<600 MET- dk/hafta), fiziksel aktivite düzeyi düşük (600 – 3000 METdk/hafta) ve fiziksel aktivite düzeyi yeterli olan (sağlık açısından yararlı olan) (>3000 METdk/hafta) şeklinde sınıflandırılmıştır (Öztürk, 2005). Verilerin İstatistiksel Değerlendirilmesi Veriler SPSS 27.0 (Statistical Pack age for the Social Sciences 27.0) programı ile analiz edilmiştir. Değişkenlerin normallik dağılımı kontrolünden sonra fiziksel aktivite düzeyi ile besin ögeleri alımı arasında farklılık olup olmadığını belirlemek için Tek Yönlü ANOVA testi kullanılmıştır. Tüm testler için anlamlılık düzeyi (p<0,05) olarak belirlenmiştir. Bu çalışma Ankara Üniversitesi Girişimsel Olmayan Klinik Araştırmalar Etik Kurulu’nun 25.04.2022 tarih ve 08/80 sayılı Etik Kurul Onayı ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bulgular ve Tartışma Oğur ve ark.’nın (2015) Beslenme ve Diyetetik Bölümü öğrencileri ile yaptıkları çalışmada kadın öğrenci popülasyonu erkeklerden fazla görülmüştür (Oğur & ark., 2015). Benzer şekilde Beslenme ve Diyetetik öğrencilerinin de dahil olduğu bir diğer çalışmada da kadın öğrencilerin sayısı daha fazladır (Andızoğlu, 2022). Katılımcıların genel özellikleri Tablo 1’de özetlenmiştir. Bu çalışmada yer alan öğrencilerin %16,4’ü erkek, %83,6’sı kız olarak saptanmıştır. Sonuçlar benzerlik göstermektedir. Kadın öğrenci sayısının fazla olmasının nedeni Beslenme Diyetetik Bölümü’nü tercih edenlerin daha çok kadın öğrenciler olmasından kaynaklı olabilmektedir. Beslenme ve Diyetetik öğrencilerinin beslenme durumlarının incelendiği bir diğer çalışmada katılımcıların çoğu dördüncü sınıftaki öğrencilerden oluşmaktadır. Yine aynı çalışmada yaş ortalaması erkeklerde 21.2±1.5 yıl ve kadınlarda 21.1±0.7 yıl olarak belirlenmiştir (İspir, 2022). Bu çalışmada da paralel bir şekilde katılımcıların %44’ü dördüncü sınıf öğrencilerinden oluşmaktadır. Öğrencilerin yaş ortalaması da 21,7±2,5 olarak belirlenmiş ve benzer sonuç çıkmıştır. Sonuçların benzer olması üniversite dönemi öğrencilerinin yaş ortalamalarının yakın olduğunu göstermektedir. Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi öğrencilerinde yapılan bir çalışmada öğrencilerin beslenme için aylık bütçelerinin 1461 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yarısını ayırdıkları bildirilmiştir (Aydemir ve ark., 2023). Bu çalışmada Beslenme için aylık ortalama bütçe değerlendirildiğinde %55,2’sinin 300-1000 TL cevabını verdiği görülmüştür. Sonuçlardaki bu farklılık öğrencilerin öğrencilerin okudukları şehirlerinin ekonomik durum farklılığı ile bütçe olanaklarının kısıtlı olmasına bağlı olduğu düşünülebilir. Tablo 1.

Bireylerin 18-24 yaş aralığı, sıklıkla öğün atladıkları, yanlış ve sağlıksız beslenme alışkanları ile davranışa sahip olduğu yetişkinliğe geçiş dönemi olarak bilinmektedir (Horacek ve diğerleri, 2002; Rinaldi ve diğerleri, 2012). Tekirdağ’da Beslenme ve Diyetetik öğrencileriyle yapılan bir çalışmada 3 ana öğün tüketenlerin sayısının 2 ya da 1 ana öğün tüketenlere oranla daha fazla olduğu bildirilmiştir. Aynı çalışmada öğle ana öğünü atlayanların sayısı da kahvaltı ve akşam yemeği ana öğününü atlayanlardan fazla bulunmuştur (Torpil, 2021). Benzer şekilde Beslenme ve Diyetetik öğrencileriyle yapılan diğer çalışmalarda da en çok atlanılan ana öğün öğle öğünü olarak saptanmıştır (Smail, 2022; Özüpek & Arslan, 2021). Üniversite öğrencileri ile yürütülen başka bir çalışmada öğrencilerin 3 ana öğün tükettikleri görülmüştür (Sönmez 2021). Üniversite öğrencilerinde yapılan benzer bir çalışmada öğrencilerin çoğunluğu öğle öğününü atladığını bildirmişlerdir (Tözün ve ark., 2017). Katılımcıların sağlıklı yaşam biçimi alışkanlıkları Tablo 2’de gösterilmiştir. Bu çalışmada 1462 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal öğrencilerin %71,6’sının üç ana öğün tükettiği, %40,3’ünün öğle öğününü atladığı görülmüştür. Öğrencilerin öğle zaman aralığında daha çok dışarıda oldukları ve bu zamanın ders saatine denk gelmesiyle öğle öğünlerine yeterince özen gösteremedikleri bu sonuçlar ile ilişkilendirilebilir. Çiçekli’nin (2022) yaptığı çalışmada öğrenciler arasında haftada 1-3 kez dışarda yemek yiyenlerin sayısı daha fazla saptanmıştır (Çiçekli, 2022). Bu çalışmada da benzer şekilde %42,5’inin hafta 1-3 kez dışarda yemek yediği bulunmuştur. Çalışmanın sonuçları birbirine paralellik göstermektedir. Yapılan bir çalışmada Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi öğrencilerinde doğru beslenme bilgilerine erişildiğinde davranış değişikliği durumuna evet diyenlerin hayır diyenlere kıyasla daha fazla olarak bildirilmiştir (Smail, 2022). Bu çalışmada katılımcıların %47’sinin doğru beslenme bilgilerinin davranış durumlarını sıklıkla etkilediği belirlenmiştir. Kişilerin dahil oldukları toplumda beslenme bilgi düzeyleri ile alışkanlıklarının, etkileşimde oldukları kişilerin değerleri ve eğitim düzeyleri ile ilişkili olup bu parametrelerin kişilerin davranışlarını da etkilediği düşünülebilir. Üniversite öğrencileriyle yapılan bir çalışmada beslenme eğitimi dersi alanların besin etiketine her zaman okudukları bildirilmiştir (Ayaz ve ark., 2021). Beslenme ve Diyetetik Bölümü’nde okuyan kız öğrencilerle yapılan bir çalışmada da benzer şekilde besin etiketi okuyanların sayısının okumayanlara göre daha fazla olduğu saptanmıştır (Garipoğlu ve ark., 2019). Bu çalışmada da benzer çıkarımlar elde edilerek, katılımcıların %51,5’inin etiket okuma alışkanlığına evet cevabının verildiği görülmüştür. Beslenmeye dair ders veya eğitimi alma durumunun öğrencilerin motivasyonunu ve bilgi düzeylerini artırarak besin etiketi kullanımını geliştirerek bu konuda farkındalıklarını artırmış olabileceği düşünülebilir. Günlük su tüketim miktarı kişilerin yaşına, sahip oldukları fiziksel aktiviteye, bireysel sağlık durumlarına ve hava koşullarına göre değişmekle birlikte genelde 1,5-2 litre su tüketmek önerilmektedir (Akbulut, 2017; Bach-Faig 2011). Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi öğrencilerinde yapılan bir çalışmada öğrencilerin günlük su tüketimlerinin 1632.22±767.86 mililitre olduğu saptanmıştır. Beslenme ve diyetetik öğrencileriyle yapılan bir diğer çalışmada da günlük su tüketimi 1473,78±675,8 mililitre bulunmuştur (Çiçekli, 2022). Bu çalışmada günlük ortalama su tüketimlerinin 1,8±0,7 litre olduğu belirlenmiştir. Günlük su tüketimi belirtilen referans aralığında olup, sonuçlardaki farklılıklar öğrencilerin yaşadığı yere bağlı iklim koşulları ile öğrencilerin bireysel olarak su yerine tüketmeyi tercih ettikleri kahve, çay gibi diğer sıvı tüketimlerinden kaynaklı olabilir. 1463 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Tablo 2.

Ancak dünya çapında bu öneri uygulanamamakta ve fiziksel hareketsizlik tüm dünyada farklı yaş gruplarında artan sorun haline gelmektedir. Fiziksel aktivite ve buna bağlı olarak beslenme sorunlarının da olmasıyla birlikte obezite ve diğer hastalıkların oluşma riski artmaktadır. (Fagaras ve diğerleri, 2015). Beslenme ve Diyetetik öğrencileri ile yapılan bir çalışmada öğrencilerin %4,4’ü her gün, %52,5’i haftada 1 gün veya daha az sıklıkla fiziksel aktivite düzeyine sahip olduğu görülmüştür (Çiçekli, 2022). Yapılan prospektif bir kohort çalışmasında da fiziksel aktivitedeki en fazla azalmanın, üniversite yıllarında olduğu bildirilmiştir (Kwan ve ark., 2012). Beslenme ve Diyetetik öğrencileriyle yapılan bir diğer çalışmada öğrencilerinin %19.8’inin minimal oranda aktif olduğu saptanmıştır (İspir, 2022). Öğrencilerin Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Anketi’nden (UFAA) elde edilen fiziksel aktivite düzeyleri ve puanları Tablo 3’te belirtilmiştir. Öğrencilerin %7,5’i fiziksel olarak aktif olmayanlardan, %63,4’ü fiziksel aktivite düzeyi düşük olanlardan 1464 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ve %29,1’i fiziksel aktivite düzeyi yeterli olanlardan oluşmaktadır. Bu çalışma sonuçlarıyla paralel olarak Downes’in (2015), yaptığı çalışmada üniversite öğrencilerinin fiziksel aktivite düzeylerinin yetersiz olduğunu saptamıştır (Downes, 2015). Çalışmaların sonucu benzer çıkmış olup, üniversite öğrencilerinin yeteri düzeyde fiziksel aktivite yapmadığı ve sağlığı geliştirme bakımından fiziksel aktivite düzeylerinin yetersiz olduğu görülmüştür. Bunun nedeni olarak çalışmada sayıca fazla olan son sınıf öğrencilerinin iş yükü ve sorumluluklarının daha fazla olması ile çalışma saatlerinin artmış olması, fiziksel aktiviteye zaman ayıramama olarak gösterilebilir. Sağlık bilimleri öğrencilerinin fiziksel aktivite durumlarına bakılan bir çalışmada öğrencilerin %80.3’ünde önerilen 3000 MET-dk/hafta altında aktivite skoruna sahip olduğu görülmüştür. Bu çalışmada toplam fiziksel aktivite düzeyi ise 2546,2±2159,8 MET-dk/hafta olarak saptanmıştır. Benzer şekilde çıkan sonuçlar için öğrencilerin fiziksel aktivite ile ilgili farkındalıklarının az ve fiziksel aktivitenin sağlık üzerine etkisini gözardı ettikleri söylenebilir. Tablo 3.

Fiziksel aktivitenin enerji tüketimini artırma yönünde olumlu etkisi bulunmaktadır ancak beslenme alışkanlıklarında ve buna bağlı olarak besin ögesi alımlarında neden olduğu değişiklikler ile ilgili kesin kanıtlar bulunamamıştır (Amatori ve ark., 2020; Küçükcankurtaran, 2024). Üniversite öğrencilerinde beslenme durumu ve fiziksel aktivite düzeyinin incelendiği bir çalışmada fiziksel aktivite düzeyi ile sağlıklı beslenme arasında bir ilişki bulunamamıştır (Özen, 2019). Yapılan bir başka çalışmada günlük tüketilen sebze ve meyve ile orta düzeyde yapılan fiziksel aktivitenin birbiriyle doğru orantılı bir ilişki olduğu görülmüştür (Duan ve ark., 2017). Diğer çalışmalarda da tüketilen toplam yağ, protein, karbonhidrat ile fiziksel aktivite düzeyi arasında negatif bir ilişki saptanmıştır Matvienko ve ark., 2001; Laska ve ark., 2016; Heeren ve ark., 2018). Öğrencilerin besin ögeleri alımları ile 1465 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal fiziksel aktivite düzeyleri arasındaki ilişki Tablo 4’te belirtilmiştir. Öğrencilerin enerji ve besin ögesi alım miktarları ile fiziksel aktivite düzeyleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ilişki saptanmamasına rağmen (p>0.05) posa, A vitamini, E vitamini, B1, B2, B6, folat, C vitamini, potasyum, kalsiyum, magnezyum ve demir alımının fiziksel olarak aktif olmayan öğrencilerde daha düşük düzeylerde olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Üniversite öğrencilerinde bu konuda yapılan çalışamlarda bulunan farklılıkların nedeni öğrencilerin yeterli ve dengeli tüketim yapma imkânı bulamama ve fiziksel olarak aktif olabilecekleri sürenin kısıtlılığından kaynaklanabilir. Ayrıca çalışmaya katılan öğrencilerin özellikleri, besin tüketim kaydı ve fiziksel aktivite düzeyini saptamak için kullanılan yöntemlerin çeşitliliği de bu farklılığı oluşturabilir. Tablo 4.

Öğün atlama, ev/yurt dışında beslenme ve su tüketimleri de göz önüne alındığında, öğrencilerin beslenme durumlarının 1466 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yeterli olmadığı ve sağlıksız beslenme alışkanlıklarına sahip oldukları gözlemlenmiştir. Bu sonuçlar, dengeli ve sağlıklı beslenmeye daha fazla odaklanıldığı günümüzde, üniversite öğrencilerinin edindikleri bilgi ve alışkanlıklarının kendilerine doğru bir şekilde uygulayamadıklarını göstermektedir. Üniversite öğrencileri gibi genç ve iyi eğitimli grupların nispeten daha iyi sağlık davranışları sergilemesi beklenmektedir. Ülkemizde özellikle beslenme ve sağlık alanında eğitim gören öğrencilerin yaşam tarzlarını değerlendirecek ve bu anlamda hatalı davranışların değişimi için müdahaleler planlayacak kapsamlı çalışmalara ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. 1467 VI.

Bu çalışmada, badem, soya ve yulaf sütü esaslı fermente içeceklerin farklı depolama süreleri sonucunda duyusal özelliklerinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Fermantasyonda Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus delbrueckii, Lactobacillus acidophilus (NCFM®), Bifidobacterium lactis(HN019™) bakteri türleri kullanılmıştır. İnkübasyonu tamamlanan örnekler 21 gün süre boyunca 4±1°C’de depolanmıştır. Duyusal analiz aşaması için çalışmaya 10 kadın, 10 erkek olmak üzere 20 sağlıklı panelist katılmıştır. Ayrıca analiz öncesinde yoğurt, süt ürünleri ve bitki bazlı süt tüketim alışkanlıkları üzerine bir sıklık anketi ile besin neofobi ölçeği uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler SPSS27 programı kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Tat puanları değerlendirildiğinde, kadın bireylerin 1. günde fermente soya sütüne kıyasla fermente yulaf sütüne daha yüksek puan verdiği, 7.günde erkeklerin fermente badem ve yulaf sütüne kıyasla fermente soya sütüne daha düşük puan verdiği belirlenmiştir(p<0,05). Ayrıca 7. günde fermente inek ve soya sütünde kadınların erkeklere kıyasla önemli düzeyde daha yüksek puan verdiği saptanmıştır (p<0,05). Renk puanları değerlendirildiğinde, 7. günde kadınların fermente yulaf sütüne kıyasla fermente soya sütüne daha fazla puan verdiği, 14. günde kadınların fermente yulaf sütüne kıyasla fermente inek sütüne daha fazla puan verdiği belirlenmiştir(p<0,05). Koku puanları değerlendirildiğinde, erkeklerin 1. günde fermente inek ve yulaf sütüne kıyasla soya sütüne daha fazla puan verdiği, 7.günde fermente badem sütüne kıyasla fermenet inek ve soya sütüne daha fazla puan verdiği, 21.günde fermente yulaf sütüne kıyasla fermente soya sütüne daha fazla puan verdiği saptanmıştır(p<0,05). 14. günde ise fermente yulaf sütünde kadınların erkeklere kıyasla daha fazla puan verdiği belirlenmiştir(p<0,05). Asidik tat puanlarında 1. günde fermente yulaf sütünde kadınların erkeklere kıyasla daha fazla puan verdiği saptanırken, 7. günde fermente soya sütünde kadınların erkeklere kıyasla daha fazla puan verdiği belirlenmiştir(p<0,05). Fermente bitkisel bazlı içeceklerde aroma özelliklerinin kullanılmasının duyusal açıdan tercih edilebilirliği arttıracağı düşünülmektedir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EVALUATION OF THE SENSORY PROPERTIES OF PLANT-BASED FERMENTED BEVERAGES Abstract Plant milks are interest as vegan and vegetarian diets have become popular in recent years. This study aimed to evaluate sensory properties almond, soy and oat milk-based fermented beverages as a result of different storage periods. Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus delbrueckii, Lactobacillus acidophilus(NCFM®), Bifidobacterium lactis(HN019™) were used in fermentation. Incubated samples were stored at 4±1°C for 21 days. For sensory analysis 20 healthy panelists, 10 women and 10 men, participated in study. In addition, a frequency survey and a food neophobia scale were applied. Data obtained was analyzed using SPSS27 program. In taste scores, it was determined that females gave higher scores to fermented oat milk compared to fermented soy milk on 1st day, and men gave lower scores to fermented soy milk compared to fermented almond and oat milk on 7th day (p<0.05). Women gave significantly higher scores than men on fermented cow and soy milk on 7th day(p<0.05). In color scores, on 7th day, women gave more points to fermented soy milk than to fermented oat milk, and on 14th day, women gave more points to fermented cow's milk compared to fermented oat milk(p<0.05). In odor scores, men gave more points to soy milk compared to fermented cow and oat milk on the 1st day, more points to fermented cow and soy milk than fermented almond milk on the 7th day, and more points to fermented soy milk compared to fermented oat milk on the 21st day. (p<0.05). On 14th day, women gave higher scores to fermented oat milk than men(p<0.05). In acidic taste scores, women gave more points than men to fermented oat milk on 1st day, while women gave more points than men to fermented soy milk on 7th day(p<0.05). Aroma properties in fermented plant-based beverages can increase sensory preferability. Keywords: Food consumption frequency, neophobia scale, plant milks, sensory analysis. 1474 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Son yıllarda, küreselleşmenin artışıyla birlikte hayvansal besinlere talepte de hızlı bir artış meydana gelmiştir. Önümüzdeki on yılda küresel et proteini tüketimindeki büyümenin, büyük ölçüde gelir ve nüfus artışına bağlı olarak 2018-2020 ortalamasına kıyasla 2030 yılına kadar %14 oranında artması öngörülmektedir. Sığır eti, domuz eti, kümes hayvanları ve koyun etinden sağlanacak protein miktarının 2030 yılına kadar sırasıyla %5,9, %13,1, %17,8 ve %15,7 artacağı tahmin edilmektedir (OECD/FAO, 2021). Küresel ortalama kişi başına et talebinin ise 2020-2022 temel döneminden 2032'ye kadar %2 oranında artması beklenmektedir. Ayrıca 2032 yılına kadar kişi başı balık, et ve süt ürünleri tüketiminin sırasıyla %14, %12 ve %12 oranında artması beklenmektedir. Bu oranlar, tahıl tüketimindeki %0,5'in altındaki büyümeyle zıt şekilde ilerlemekte ve beslenme değişikliğinin ciddi boyutlarını vurgulamaktadır (OECD/FAO, 2023). Dünyamız bir yandan hayvansal besin tüketiminde artış ve bunun beraberinde getirdiği çevre, sağlık, ekonomik vb. birçok sorunla karşı karşıyayken bir yandan da besine ulaşılabilirlik, besin yoksunluğu, besin güvencesizliği gibi kavramlarla mücadele etmektedir. Diğer yandan gelişmiş ülkeler başta olmak üzere dünya genelinde hem sağlığın korunması hem de meydana gelebilecek olumsuz çevresel etkileri önlemek için hayvansal kaynaklı besinlerin üretimine yönelik taleplerde azalma gözlenmiştir. Tüm bunlar sonucunda hem üreticiler hem de tüketiciler sağlıklı ve sürdürülebilir alternatif besin üretimlerine yönelmiştir. Sağlıklı ve sürdürülebilir diyetler arasında vejetaryen ve vegan diyetleri de saymak mümkündür. Vejetaryen ve vegan beslenme günümüz post modern dünyasında ivme kazanmaya devam etmektedir. Bununla birlikte vejetaryen ve vegan besinlere talepler artış göstermekte ve besin sanayisinde de sağlıklı ve sürdürülebilir beslenmenin sağlanması için adımlar atılmaktadır (Henchion et al., 2017). Bu noktada özellikle sağlıklı beslenmenin sağlanması, hastalıkların önlenmesi ve vücudun iyilik halinin devam ettirilmesinde fonksiyonel besin kavramı ön plana çıkmaktadır. Fonksiyonel bileşiklerden probiyotiklerin fermente besin üretiminde kullanımı yeni değildir, ancak son zamanlarda besin sanayisindeki üretim amaçları hayvanların korunması, organoleptik iyileştirmeler ve sağlığın korunmasına doğru ilerlemiştir (Saad et al., 2013). Fonksiyonel besin örneklerinden bazıları ise yararlı etkiler sağlayan mikroorganizmaları içermesi nedeni ile insan mide-bağırsak sistemi ve insan sağlığı üzerinde olumlu etkiler yaratmaktadır. Şimdiye kadar, probiyotik ürünlerin en büyük kısmı hayvan sütünden yapılan fermente besinlerle tüketicilere sunulmaktadır (Mäkinen et al., 2016). Bitkisel bazlı fermente içecekler, süt ürünleri içermeyen alternatifler arasında önemli bir segmenti temsil etmekte ve hayvansal kaynaklı süt alerjileri ve etik kaygıları olan birçok tüketicinin ihtiyaçlarını 1475 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal karşılamaktadır (Phillips & Williams, 2011). Bu kapsamda son zamanlarda bitkisel süt endüstrileri önem kazanmıştır. Bitkisel sütler, beslenme ve sağlık yararlarının yanı sıra prebiyotik bileşikler içerdiğinden, bu sütler sinbiyotik ürünler üretmek için önemli kaynaktırlar (De Souza Oliveira et al., 2009). Bitkisel sütlerden elde edilen fermente içecekler genellikle farklı hammaddelerden (örn. kurubaklagiller, yağlı tohumlar, tahıllar veya pseudo tahıllar) elde edilen sulu özütlerin, bu malzemelerin parçalanması ve homojenleştirilmesinden kaynaklanan inek sütüne benzer görünüm ve kıvama sahip olacak şekilde fermente edilmesiyle elde edilmektedir (Sethi et al., 2016). Fermente içeceklerin üretiminde kullanılan bitkisel bazlı kaynaklar arasında soya fasulyesi, protein miktarı, kalitesi ve fonksiyonel özellikleri nedeniyle özellikle son yıllarda popüler hale gelmiştir. Ayrıca, soya sütünün fermente içecek yapımında yaygın olarak kullanılan laktik asit bakterilerinin (LAB) gelişimi için iyi bir substrat olduğu gösterilmiştir (Chou & Hou, 2000). Soya, bitki bazlı içecek üretiminde en yaygın kullanılan substrat olmasına rağmen, günümüzde hindistan cevizi, badem, kenevir ve çeşitli tahıllar (örneğin yulaf, karabuğday ve pirinç) bitki bazlı içeceklerin üretiminde kullanılmaktadır. Badem, tekli ve çoklu doymamış yağ asitleri, fitosteroller, polifenoller, proteinler, vitaminler ve mineraller ile diyet posası açısından zengin olup bu bileşiklerin çoğu antioksidan özelliklere sahiptir. Bu antioksidan özellikleri ile plazmada düşük dansiditeli lipoprotein (LDL) oksidasyonunu önleyerek lipid profili ve inflamatuvar süreçler üzerinde olumlu etkiler sağlamaktadır (Jones et al., 2011; Liu, 2012). Badem sütünün ve badem sütünden elde edilen fermente içeceklerin kardiyovasküler hastalıklar, tip 2 diyabet, obezite ve bazı kanser türleri gibi kronik hastalıkların gelişme riskini azalttığı öne sürülmektedir (Kamil & Chen, 2012). Yulaf ve diğer bitkisel sütlerin de sağlık üzerine olumlu etkileri bulunmaktadır (Paul et al., 2020). Tüm bu bilgiler ışığında yapılan çalışmada, badem, soya ve yulaf sütlerinin fermantasyonu ile elde edilen fermente içeceklerin farklı depolama süreleri sonucunda duyusal analizlerinin gerçekleştirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Materyal ve Metod Çalışmada kullanılacak bitkisel sütler çalışma öncesinde yapılan bir ön çalışma niteliğindeki araştırma ile belirlenmiştir. Bu kapsamda vegan ve vejetaryen bireylerin en sık tükettiği badem, soya ve yulaf sütü olmak üzere 3 bitkisel süt çeşidinin bu çalışmada kullanılmasına karar verilmiştir. Bu aşamadan sonra ise bu çalışmada aynı ticari markaya ait badem sütü, soya sütü ve yulaf sütü olmak üzere 3 çeşit bitkisel süt, kontrol grubu olarak aynı markanın olmadığı için farklı marka yarım yağlı inek sütü kullanılmıştır. Tüm sütlerin seçiminde son kullanma tarihinin birbirine benzer olmasına dikkat edilmiştir. Sütlerden fermente içecek üretimi ve 1476 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal kimyasal analizler Ankara Üniversitesi Ziraat Fakültesi Süt Teknolojisi laboratuvarında yapılmıştır. Çalışmanın duyusal analiz aşaması için Ankara Üniversitesi Rektörlüğü Etik Kurulu 25.04.2022 tarihli, 08 sayılı toplantı ve 87 sayılı karar sayısı sonucunda gerçekleştirilmesinin uygun olduğuna karar verilmiştir. Sütlere ilişkin etiket bilgileri Tablo 1’de belirtilmiştir. Tablo 1.

Kültür içeriği Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus delbrueckii (Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis) Lactobacillus acidophilus (NCFM®), Bifidobacterium lactis (HN019™) bakteri türlerinden oluşmaktadır. Örneklerin Hazırlanması ve Fermantasyon Marketten alınan sütler analize başlanacağı aşamada temin edilmiştir. Tüm sütlere ilk olarak 90 °C’de 10 dakika ısıl işlem uygulanmış ve pastörizasyon işlemi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Daha sonra fermantasyon için 43 °C’de aseptik koşullarda 100 ml süte 0,5 g oranında bakteri suşları eklenmiştir. Bu aşamadan sonra elde edilen karışımlar 100 ml’lik polietilen tabanlı sert plastik kaplara doldurulmuş ve örnekler pH değerleri 4,6 düzeyine gelene kadar inkübasyona bırakılmıştır (Mühlhansová et al., 2015). Fermente İçeceklerin Depolanması İnkübasyonu tamamlanmış örnekler 20±1°C oda sıcaklığında 30 dakika süre ile bekletilerek ön soğutma işlemine tabi tutulmuş ardından da 21 gün süresince 4±1°C’de buzdolabı koşullarında 1477 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal depolanmıştır. Buzdolabında 4±1°C sıcaklıktaki depolanmış örneklerin analiz işlemleri depolama aşamasının 1., 7., 14. ve 21. günlerinde yapılmıştır. Her bir depolama süresi sonrasında örnekler bekletilmeden direkt olarak analizleri gerçekleştirilmiştir. Duyusal Analiz Çalışmanın duyusal analiz aşaması Ankara Üniversitesi Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi Besin Kimyası laboratuvarında yürütülmüştür. Çalışmada duyusal analiz testleri için 18–50 yaş aralığında 10 kadın, 10 erkek olmak üzere toplam 20 sağlıklı, sigara içmeyen, gönüllü panelist seçilmiştir. Duyusal analizden önce panelistlere testin nasıl ve ne amaçla yapılacağı konusunda bilgi verilmiştir. Testlerin sessiz ve havalandırılabilir bir ortamda ve 10:30–11:30 saatleri arasında yapılmasına dikkat edilmiştir. Ayrıca bireylerin seçimi için acı, tatlı, tuzlu ve ekşi olmak üzere dört temel tada duyarlılıkları duyusal analiz testinden önce değerlendirilmiştir. Tat alımlarının değerlendirilmesinde duyusal analiz testi olarak görsel analog skala (VAS) kullanılmıştır. Testler sırasında panelistlere ağızlarını çalkalamaları için su ve ağız dokusunu değiştirmesi için çok şekerli ve tuzlu olmayan bir bisküvi verilmiştir. Daha sonra çalışmanın esas bölümüne geçilmiş olup bitkisel ve hayvansal sütlerden elde edilen fermente içecek örneklerinde duyusal analizi için örneklerin her biri üç basamaklı farklı sayılarla kodlanmış olarak panelistlere sunulmuştur. Örneklerin her biri 10 g’lık şeffaf kaplarda her bir oturumda 4 örnek (1.,7.,14.,21. gün süresince depolama işlemlerinden sonra elde edilen bitkisel ve hayvansal fermente içecek örnekleri) 4 oturum şeklinde panelistler tarafından değerlendirilmiştir. Panel üyeleri fermente içecekleri hedonik skala testine göre değerlendirmiş ve panelistlerden formda belirtilen toplam kabul edilebilirlik, renk, yapı, görünüş, tat, koku, asidik tat parametrelerinin her birini 1 “hiç beğenmedim” ile 9 “çok fazla beğendim” arasında olacak şekilde puanlandırmaları istenmiştir. Buna ek olarak duyusal analiz değerlendirmesine katılan panelistlere analiz öncesinde yoğurt, süt ürünleri ve/veya bitki bazlı süt tüketim alışkanlıkları üzerine bir sıklık anketi ve bir besin neofobi ölçeği uygulanmıştır. Besin neofobi ölçeğinin Türkçe geçerlilik ve güvenilirliği çalışması 2020 yılında Duman vd. tarafından yapılmıştır (Duman et al., 2020). Ölçeğin orjinali ise 1992 yılında Pliner ve Hobden tarafından besin neofobisini tanımlamak için psikometrik bir araç olarak geliştirilmiştir. Besin neofobi ölçeği, on maddeden oluşan 7 puanlı likert tipi ölçek, kesinlikle katılmıyorumdan (1 puan) kesinlikle katılıyoruma (7 puan) doğru her bir seçenekte 1’er puan artacak şekilde düzenlenmiş olup 10-70 puan aralığında değer almaktadır (1, 4, 6, 9 ve 10. sorular ters skorlanmaktadır). Yüksek puanlar yeni besin korkusunu, düşük puanlar yeni besinlerden hoşlanmayı göstermektedir (Pliner & Hobden, 1992). Yeni besin korkusu, bireylerin besin çeşitliliğinin 1478 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal azalmasına neden olmanın yanında yeni besinlere karşı tutum ve tat memnuniyeti üzerinde de önemli bir etmen olmaktadır. Bu nedenle bu çalışmada, besin neofobi ölçeği ve tüketim sıklığı anketi, duyusal analiz aşamasında bireylerin herhangi bir besini denemeye karşı fobisinin olup olmadığını belirlemek ve bunun yanında bireylerin hayvansal ve bitkisel süt ve ürünleri tüketim alışkanlıklarını değerlendirmek amacıyla uygulanmıştır. Duyusal analiz aşaması gerçekleştirilirken kullanılacak malzemelerin steril olmasına ve her katılımcıya özel olmasına özen gösterilmiştir. Ayrıca, katılımcıların kahvaltı yapmaları ne aç ne de tok olmamaları gerektiği vurgulanmış ve panelden önce bu ilkeler açısından sorgulanmıştır. Verilerin gizliliğinin onam formunda belirtildiği gibi tamamen gizli tutulacağı ve başka bir kişi ile paylaşılmayacağı beyan edilmiştir. İstatistiksel Analiz Çalışmada yürütülen tüm analizler iki tekrarlı olarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışmanın istatistiksel değerlendirmesinde ise kullanılacak örneklerin normallik dağılımları, örnek sayısına uygunluğu açısından Shapiro–Wilk Testi ile değerlendirilmiştir. Tüm grupların karşılaştırılmasında one-way ANOVA testi, ikili karşılaştırmalar arasındaki farklar için ise post hoc Tukey testi kullanılmıştır. Yapılan analizler sonucunda nicel değişkenler ortalama ve standart sapma (SS) değerleri ile gösterilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) 26 paket programı kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. İstatistiksel olarak p<0,05 değeri önemlilik düzeyini ifade etmektedir. Bulgular ve Tartışma Fermente süt örneklerinin 21 gün depolama süresince görünüş puanları Tablo 2’de gösterilmiştir.

Besin neofobi ölçeği sorularının dağılım yüzdelerinin değerlendirilmesi Duyusal analize katılan bireylerin besin neofobi ölçek puanları Şekil 2’de gösterilmiştir. Erkeklerin besin neofobi ölçek puan ortalaması 36,23±6,04 iken, kadınların besin neofobi ölçek puan ortalaması 33,61±8,95 puan olarak belirlenmiştir. Erkekler ve kadınların besin neofobi ölçek puanları arasında önemli farklılık belirlenmemiştir (p=0,392). Toplam besin neofobi ölçek puan ortalaması ise 34,92±7,60 olarak saptanmıştır. Elde edilen puanlar incelendiğinde duyusal analize katılan bireylerin besin neofobisinin düşük olduğu saptanmıştır.Duyusal ya da hedonik olarak da adlandırılan tüketici kabul edilebilirlik testleri, duyusal çekiciliğe dayalı olarak bir ürünün beğenilme derecesini değerlendirmek için kullanılan analizlerdir (Fiorentini et al., 2020). Soya sütünün fermasyonu ile duyusal analiz sonuçlarını değerlendiren çalışmalar incelendiğinde; yapılan bir çalışmada, soya sütünün fermantasyonu ve 15 günlük depolanması sonucunda duyusal analiz sonuçlarına göre en yüksek puanın yapı ve doku alanına verildiği 1485 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal belirlenirken, renk, koku, tat ve genel kabul edilebilirlik puanlarının düşük olduğu saptanmıştır. Ayrıca yapı ve doku puanları dışındaki puanlamalarda depolama süresiyle puanlarda azalmaların olduğu belirlenmiştir (p<0,05) (Almghawesh et al., 2022). Yapılan bir diğer çalışmada, ise soya sütüne ayrı ayrı olmak üzere %2’lik FOS ve %2’lik inülin ilavesi yapılmış ve yoğurt kültürü ile fermente edilerek 4 °C’de 1, 7, 21 ve 28 gün depo edilmiştir. Duyusal analiz sonuçlarına göre FOS takviyesi yapılan örnekler inülin takviyeli örneklerle karşılaştırıldığında önemli ölçüde daha gelişmiş duyusal özelliklerin sağlandığı belirtilmiştir. İnülin ilaveli örneklerde ise ST-LA ve ST-LR kombinasyonları kullanılarak yapılan örnekler maksimum duyusal puanı almıştır. İncelenen tüm örnekler arasında görünüm ve doku puanlarında önemli bir fark bulunmazken (p>0,05) FOS katkılı örneklerin, inülin katkılı örneklere kıyasla daha iyi görünüm ve tekstür skoruna sahip olduğu saptanmıştır (p<0,05) (Mishra & Mishra, 2018). Bir başka çalışmada, soya sütü ve hindistan cevizi sütü ilavesi ile yapılan kombinasyonlar sonucunda duyusal analiz sonuçları incelenmiş ve aroma, kıvam ve kabul edilebilirlik için en yüksek puanlar soya sütüne %30 hindistan cevizi sütü ilave edilen kombinasyonda saptanırken, renk ve tat için sade soya sütü daha yüksek puan almıştır (p<0,05) (Kolapo & Olubamiwa, 2012). Badem sütünün fermasyonu ile duyusal analiz sonuçlarını değerlendiren çalışmalar incelendiğinde; Türkiye’de yapılan bir çalışmada, badem sütünün S. thermophilus, Lb. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, L. acidophilus ve Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis bakterileri ile fermantasyonu gerçekleştirilmiş ve 4±1 °C’de 21 gün süresince depolanmıştır. Depolama günleri karşılaştırıldığında ise panelist değerlendirmelerinde genel olarak istatistiksel olarak önemli farklar saptanmamıştır (p>0,05) (Yilmaz-Ersan & Topcuoglu, 2022). İspanya’da yapılan bir çalışmada, badem sütü L. reuteri ve S. thermophilus ile fermente edilmiş ve 4 °C’de 28 gün boyunca depolanmıştır. Çalışmada numuneler ne kadar uzun süre depolanırsa o kadar asidik olacağı belirtilmesine rağmen duyusal analiz sonuçlarına göre panelistler, 1 gün boyunca saklanan numunelerin, 28 gün boyunca saklananlara göre önemli ölçüde daha asidik ve daha az tatlı olduğunu ifade etmişlerdir. Bu tartışmalı sonuç ise fermente ürünlere keskin ve asidik kokuları aktardığı görülen L. reuteri suşunun neden olduğu uçucu asetik asidin sentezi dikkate alınarak açıklanmıştır. Bu asit esas olarak fermantasyonun başlangıcında oluşmakta ve 28 gün depolamadan sonra, uçucu hale gelmesi nedeniyle asetik asidin olumsuz etkisi ortadan kalkmış olabilir şeklinde yorumlanmıştır. Depolama süreleri ve genel kabul edilebilirlik arasında önemli farklılık belirlenmemiştir (p>0,05) (Bernat et al., 2015). Türkiye’de yapılan bir çalışmada, fermente badem sütü portakal suyu ilaveleri ile kombine edilmiş ve duyusal analiz sonucuna göre %30 portakal suyu ilave edilen 1486 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal kombinasyona göre ilave yapılmayan fermente badem sütünün kıvam, renk, asitlik, aroma, genel kabul edilebilirlik puanları önemli düzeyde düşük olarak saptanmıştır (p<0,05) (Duran & Cevik, 2022). Yulaf sütünün fermasyonu ile duyusal analiz sonuçlarını değerlendiren çalışmalar incelendiğinde; yapılan bir çalışmada, Streptococcus salivarius sub sp. thermophilus, L. acidophilus ve Bifidobacterium bifidium suşlarıyla fermente edilen yulaf sütü 4 °C’de 21 gün boyunca depolanmıştır. Duyusal analiz sonuçlarına göre fermente yulaf ve inek sütünde renk ve görünüş açısından önemli farklılık belirlenmezken (p>0,05) fermente yulaf sütünde kıvam puanları inek sütüne kıyasla daha yüksek saptanmıştır (p<0,05). Ayrıca inek sütünün yulaf sütüne göre daha fazla tat, koku ve genel kabul edilebilirlik puanlarına sahip olduğu saptanmıştır (p<0,05). Depolama süresine göre ise inek ve yulaf sütünün genel duyusal kalitesinin ilk 7 gün artış gösterdiği daha sonrasında ise azaldığı belirtilmiştir (p<0,05) (ElBatawy et al., 2019). Yapılan bir başka çalışmada, deve sütüne yulaf sütü eklenmesiyle yapılan kombinasyonlarda S. thermophilus, L. acidophilus ve Bifidobacterium bifidum bakterileri ile fermantasyon gerçekleştirilmiş ve 4±1 °C’de 10 gün süresince depolanmıştır. Deve sütüne kıyasla %40 yulaf sütünün ilave edilmesi duyusal analiz sonuçlarını olumlu yönde etkileyerek daha yüksek puanların elde edilmesi ile sonuçlanmıştır (p<0,05) (Atwaa et al., 2020). Türkiye’de yapılan bir çalışmada, yulaf sütü ve inek sütü farklı kombinasyonlarda karıştırılarak Lactococcus spp ve Lactobacillus spp. bakterileri ile fermente edilmiş ve 4±1 °C’de 21 gün boyunca depolanmıştır. Depolama sonrası genel olarak değerlendirildiğinde %60 ile en fazla yulaf sütü oranı ile yapılan kombinasyonun diğer kombinasyonlara kıyasla tüm duyusal analiz değerlendirmelerinde daha düşük puana sahip olduğu saptanmıştır (p<0,05) (Dinkçi et al., 2015). İnek sütünün fermasyonu ile duyusal analiz sonuçlarını değerlendiren çalışmalar incelendiğinde; Yunanistan’da yapılan benzer bir çalışmada, S. thermophilus, Lb. delbrueckii ve Lactobacillus casei bakterileri ile fermente edilmiş ve 4 °C’de 28 gün depolama işlemi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Duyusal analiz sonuçlarına göre fermente inek sütünde en yüksek puan sırasıyla viskozite, genel kabul edilebilirlik ve renk alanlarına verilmiştir. Keçi sütüne göre yapılan kıyaslamada inek sütünün genel olarak daha düşük puanlar aldığı belirlenmiştir (p<0,05) (Dimitrellou et al., 2019). Kanada’da yapılan bir çalışmada, soya sütü ilaveli inek sütleri Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1 bakterisi ile fermente edilmiş ve 4 °C’de 30 gün depolama işlemi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Duyusal analiz sonuçlarına göre görünüş ve doku açısından soya ilavesiz fermente inek sütü en yüksek puanı alırken (p<0,05), lezzet ve kabul edilebilirlik açısından soya ilavesiz fermente inek sütü ve soya sütü ilaveli fermente inek sütleri benzer puanlar almışlardır (p>0,05) (Fatima & Hekmat, 2020). Yapılan bir başka çalışmada, 1487 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75 ve 0:100 oranlarında soya sütü ilaveli inek sütü L. acidophilus NCFM, B. lactis HN019 ve yoğurt bakterileri ile fermente edilmiş ve 4 °C’de 21 gün boyunca depolanmıştır. Örnek kombinasyonlarından 0:100 ve 100:0 (inek sütü:soya sütü) oranlarının, depolama süresine göre en düşük ve en yüksek toplam duyusal puana sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir. genel olarak ise her bir kültür kompozisyonu için 50:50 oranının kullanılması duyusal analiz açısından en uygun seçenek olarak kabul edilmiştir (Mohammadi et al., 2017). Bu çalışmada duyusal analiz değerlendirmesinden önce bireylerin hayvansal ve bitkisel bazlı ürünleri tüketimi ile bu ürünlere karşı neofobi durumlarının olup olmadığını belirlemedeki amaç ise Türk toplumunun damak tadına uzak olarak nitelendirilebilecek fermente bitkisel bazlı içeceklerin duyusal analiz sonuçlarında yanlış değerlendirilmelerin dışlanmasını sağlamaktır. Yapılan bu çalışmada, elde edilen puanlar incelendiğinde ise duyusal analize katılan bireylerin besin neofobisinin düşük olması çalışma tasarımı ile paralellik göstermiştir. Sonuç ve Öneriler Özellikle son yıllarda bitkisel süt tercihlerine yönelim ile bu bireyler evlerinde bitkisel sütlerden fermente içecek ve yoğurt üretimi gibi besinler elde etmektedirler. Bu bireyler bu yolla kendilerine alternatif fonksiyonel bir içecek ürettiklerini ifade etmektedirler. Bu çalışma sonuçlarına göre, duyusal analiz sonuçları ve panelist yorumlarına göre fermente bitkisel içecek üretiminde tüketici açısından aroma içeriğine sahip bakteri suşlarının kullanılmasının tüketici seçimi için daha iyi olacağı düşünülmektedir. Fermantasyon aşaması her ne kadar ürünün duyusal özelliğinde iyileşmeler sağlasa da bitkisel sütler Türk damak kültürüne temel olarak yabancı besinlerdir. Bu nedenle fermente bitkisel içecek elde edilirken aroma içeriğine sahip bakteri suşlarıyla fermantasyon işlemi gerçekleştirilebilir. Ayrıca bitkisel sütler birbirleri ile belirli oranlarda karıştırılarak duyusal açıdan daha iyi fermente içeceklerin üretimi sağlanabilir. Ayrıca depolama süresi ile fermente içeceklerde ekşimsi bir tat ve koku oluşumunun gerçekleşmesinden dolayı depolama süresinin çok uzun tutulmaması gerekmektedir. Ayıca bu çalışma yürütülürken ülkemizde toplumun kolayca ulaşabildiği market alanlarında fermente bitkisel içeceklerin bulunmadığı ve bunun yanında bitkisel süt çeşitlerinin de oldukça sınırlı olduğu görülmüştür. Toplumumuzda vegan ve vejetaryen bireylerin sayısı gün geçtikçe artmaktadır. Bu bireylerin besin ve besin ögesi açısından çoğunlukla yetersizlik durumları ile karşılaşmaları da göz önüne alınarak ticari olarak fermente bitkisel ürünlerin üretiminin yapılmasının hem bu bireyler hem de sanayide yeni bir sektör açısından faydalı olabileceği düşünülmektedir. Bu çalışmanın bu anlamda literatüre önemli bir katkı sağlayacağı düşünülmektedir. 1488 VI.

Beton, küresel konut ihtiyaçlarına yanıt veren temel bir yapı malzemesidir ve yıllık üretimi 10 milyar m3'ü aşmaktadır, suyun ardından en çok üretilen ve tüketilen ikinci madde konumundadır. Çimento, su, agrega ve çeşitli kimyasal katkı maddelerini içeren beton, hidratasyon reaksiyonları sonucunda zamanla katılaşır ve dayanıklılık kazanır. Taze betonun zorunluluğu, belirlenen yükleri karşılamak için optimum işlenebilirlik özelliklerine ve yeterli basınç dayanımına sahip olmasıdır. Bununla birlikte, geleneksel betonda birincil bağlayıcı malzeme olarak Portland Çimentosu'na (PC) yaygın olarak kullanılması, CO2 emisyonlarının artışına önemli ölçüde katkıda bulunarak çevre ve sağlık risklerinin meydana gelmesine sebep olur. Bu olumsuz etkinin azaltılması için çimento esaslı ürünlerde PC'lerin SCM'lerle değiştirilmesi ve sürdürülebilir uygulamalara doğru bir değişim gerekmektedir. Çeşitli endüstriyel işlemlerden elde edilen yüksek fırın cürufu (GBFS), silis dumanı (SF) ve uçucu kül (FA) gibi atık puzolanik malzemeler, PC üretiminin çevresel etkisinin azaltılmasında önemli bir rol oynar.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal SUSTAINABILITY IN CONCRETE: EXPLORING THE BENEFITS OF POZZOLANIC CEMENTITIOUS MATERIALS Abstract In concrete production, the use of pozzolanic materials (SCMs) instead of traditional Portland cement (PC) not only significantly reduces carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions but also contributes significantly to sustainability. Concrete, a fundamental building material addressing global housing needs, boasts an annual production exceeding 10 billion m3, positioning itself as the second most produced and consumed substance after water. Concrete, consisting of cement, water, aggregate, and various chemical additives, solidifies and gains strength over time through hydration reactions. The imperative for fresh concrete lies in possessing optimal workability properties and sufficient compressive strength to meet designated loads. However, the prevalent reliance on Portland Cement (PC) as the primary binding material in conventional concrete significantly contributes to heightened CO2 emissions, posing environmental and health risks. Mitigating such impact necessitates a shift towards sustainable practices, emphasizing the substitution of PCs with SCMs in concrete formulations. Critical pozzolanic materials like blast furnace slag (GBFS), silica fume (SF), and fly ash (FA), derived from various industrial processes, play a pivotal role in curbing the environmental impact of PC production. Integrating these waste materials into concrete mixtures is a critical stride towards fostering sustainability and environmental responsibility in the construction industry." Keywords: Concrete, carbon reduction, supplementary cementitious materials 1494 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction In accelerated industrialization and heightened energy demands, reliance on fossil fuels raises critical environmental concerns. Utilizing waste materials in various applications presents an avenue for achieving sustainable development, concurrently improving the quality of life by mitigating environmental pollution. Concrete, a ubiquitous construction material in structures ranging from residences and shopping malls to bridges and dams, underscores the need for a paradigm shift toward sustainability in the construction industry. Heightened societal emphasis on sustainable practices, escalating demands, decreasing resource availability, and the imperative to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, necessitates innovative approaches within the construction sector (Hasanbeigi et al. 2012; Yang et al. 2015; Gartner & Hirao 2015). The cement sector, contributing approximately 5% of global anthropogenic CO2 emissions, underscores the urgency to address sustainability issues arising from CO2 emissions in Portland cement (PC) production (Andrew 2018). The conventional use of fossil fuels in PC production results in the release of 1 ton of CO2 per ton of clinker produced, necessitating transformative measures (Justnes 2012). A compelling strategy involves replacing a portion of cement in concrete with mineral additives, such as ground granulated blast furnace slag (GBFS) or silica fume (SF), both possessing latent hydraulic properties. This approach significantly mitigates CO2 emissions from cement production, contributing to environmental preservation and sustainability (Saranya et al. 2018; Shin et al. 2016; Song et al. 2022). Globally, PC production reached approximately 4 billion tons in 2015, with Turkey contributing 75 million tons, resulting in an annual release of 60 million tons of CO2 (Özcan & Güngör 2019). Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCMs) are pivotal in concrete production, serving as secondary binders alongside PC. Implementing fly ash (FA) as a percentage replacement for PC influences various fresh and hardened concrete properties, including workability, hydration characteristics, and mechanical strength (Han et al. 2022; Wang 2019; Zhang et al. 2014). A schematic representation of the benefits of FA in concrete mixes is shown (Figure 1). 1495 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Figure 1. A shematic representation of the benefits of FA in concrete mixes Fly ash (FA) reacts with lime from cement hydration, forming an additional binding gel that enhances concrete compactness, reduces permeability, and augments durability (Nath & Sarker 2011; O’Brien et al. 2009). Moreover, Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCMs), including FA, significantly impact compressive strength, modulus of elasticity, and timedependent deformations in concrete, influencing properties such as creep and shrinkage (Johari et al. 2011). Durability aspects, including resistance to acids, sulfates, alkali-aggregate reaction, repeated freeze-thaw cycles, and reinforcement corrosion, are also profoundly influenced by SCMs, varying based on their type and pozzolanic activity (Limbachiya et al. 2012; Wang et al. 2021; Jiang et al. 2022). As an artificial pozzolan, FA consists of glassy, spherical granular particles that enhance concrete strength and durability through a hydration reaction with slaked lime (Ebrahimi et al. 2017; Diamond 1986). The integration of SCMs emerges as a transformative strategy, redefining the landscape of concrete production to align with sustainable principles and mitigate the environmental impact associated with traditional practices.The construction industry is undergoing a transformative shift towards sustainable practices, and a key player in this evolution is the strategic integration of supplemental cementitious materials (SCMs). These materials, including fly ash, slag, and silica fume, are gaining prominence for their significant contributions to environmental conservation and improved concrete performance. SCMs are valuable alternatives to traditional Portland cement (PC), the primary binder in concrete production. By incorporating these materials into concrete 1496 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal mixtures, the industry can address environmental concerns, particularly the high carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions associated with PC production. Reducing CO2 emissions aligns with global sustainability goals, marking a crucial step towards creating environmentally responsible structures.The importance of SCMs lies in their environmental benefits and their positive impact on concrete properties. Concrete blended with SCMs exhibits enhanced durability, reduced permeability, and improved resistance to harsh environmental conditions. These improvements contribute to the longevity and resilience of structures, reducing the need for frequent maintenance and repairs. Fly ash, a byproduct of coal combustion is a commonly used SCM. Its incorporation in concrete not only diverts waste from landfills but also enhances workability, mitigates the risk of alkali-silica reaction, and improves sulfate resistance. Similarly, ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS), a byproduct of iron production, contributes to concrete strength development, reduces heat of hydration, and enhances resistance to aggressive chemicals. Silica fume, an ultrafine byproduct of silicon and ferrosilicon alloy production, is another noteworthy SCM. Its addition to concrete enhances compressive strength, reduces permeability, and provides resistance to chloride ion penetration. Using silica fume is particularly advantageous in marine structures and environments with high chloride concentrations. In conclusion, adopting SCMs in the construction industry represents a significant stride towards sustainability and improved concrete performance. By reducing reliance on traditional binders like PCs and incorporating these innovative materials, the industry can meet the growing demand for environmentally responsible practices while ensuring the longevity and resilience of structures. As the construction sector prioritizes sustainability, SCMs emerge as indispensable elements in shaping an industry's greener and more robust future. Conclusion Concrete, a widely-used building material known for its strength and affordability, is facing serious challenges due to its reliance on Portland cement (PC). The production of PC is a major contributor to carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, harming the environment and increasing production costs. To address these issues, there's a recent push to reduce the use of PC in concrete and explore alternatives that are both environmentally friendly and cost-effective. Materials like ground granulated blast furnace slag (GBFS), fly ash (FA), and silica fume (SF) from industrial waste are gaining attention as potential substitutes for PC in concrete. This shift not only helps in reducing CO2 emissions but also opens up avenues for creating concrete that's more sustainable. Researchers, the construction industry, and end-users are actively involved 1497 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal in adopting these eco-friendly practices. It's essential to delve into the detailed properties, advantages, and potential challenges of using GBFS, FA, and SF in concrete to ensure environmentally conscious production. Beyond just mitigating environmental impact, the move towards sustainable concrete production could fundamentally change construction practices, aligning with global sustainability goals. Concrete mixes enriched with GBFS, FA, and SF not only meet rigorous standards but also offer superior qualities such as increased durability, strength, and resistance to environmental factors. These benefits extend beyond the construction site, making substantial contributions to reducing carbon footprints, lessening environmental harm, and enhancing overall well-being. As awareness grows and industry practices evolve, the momentum towards sustainable concrete production is poised to significantly impact the future of construction. Collaborative efforts involving researchers, industry players, and end-users are vital in driving this shift towards widely adopting environmentally friendly and economically viable concrete formulations. Embracing this change isn't just an option; it's a collective responsibility towards building a sustainable future for the construction industry and the planet. 1498 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ASSESSING THE ROLE AND SIGNIFICANCE OF COLORED CONCRETE IN MODERN CONSTRUCTION PRACTICES Abstract Colored concrete emerges from aesthetic applications employing pigments within the concrete matrix. Beyond providing a robust wear-resistant layer, it achieves a visually appealing surface. Generally, two methods are employed for concrete coloring. The first involves pressing concrete, where layers of colorants, typically powdered, are introduced to fresh concrete before employing texturing molds. The alternative method is directly integrating colorants into the conventional concrete mixture comprising stone aggregates, sand, cement, water, and additives. In contrast to stamped concrete, this technique necessitates powdered pigments, typically inorganic minerals such as iron and chromium oxides. Alternatively, the second approach allows for the use of pigments and colored cement varieties, deviating from the conventional gray cement in construction applications. Keywords: Colored concrete, pressing concrete, colorants, powdered pigments. 1502 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction Global surges in demand for construction projects have positioned concrete as the most extensively utilized building material (Shah et al., 2021; Li et al., 2022; Naik, 2020; Kishore & Gupta, 2020; Chyliński et al., 2022). Beyond its utilitarian applications, concrete serves as a prominent architectural material within the construction industry, demonstrating not only versatility but also aesthetic potential. Traditional concrete production incorporates gray cement, while the inclusion of white cement and pigments expands avenues for color customization. Colored concrete finds widespread applications in sculpture, surface reliefs, exterior facades, the manufacturing of interior architectural products, and the design of park and garden furniture (Karagüler, 2002; Karagüler, 2003; Özkul, 2005).The term 'architectural concrete' refers to the transparency of the produced concrete or reinforced concrete element on the outer surface without requiring an additional coating layer. This type of concrete, often referred to as 'exposed concrete,' is prominently visible on the outer shell of buildings. In specific construction applications, 'exposed concrete' is also utilized within the interior of buildings. The introduction of pigments to architectural concrete enables the creation of desired colors and textures (Sharifi & Sheibani, 2022; Utesena & Pernicova, 2022; Arruda Junior et al., 2022). In the production of colored concrete, aesthetic considerations become pivotal alongside conventional concrete's expected workability, strength, and durability properties. Various aspects, including the impact of pigments on cement setting, color stability, resistance to environmental conditions, effects on mechanical properties, and resilience against factors like heat and freezing-thawing, gain significance in colored concrete (Sharifi & Sheibani, 2022; Utesena & Pernicova, 2022). Beyond these properties, attention to the formwork system and mold release agents is crucial for achieving visually appealing colored concrete applications (Arruda Junior et al., 2022). Research in this domain has delved into the effects of mineral pigments on the compressive strength of colored concrete, with a focus on the role of an improved color palette in current urban environments (Sharifi & Sheibani, 2022). Another study explored the color stability of colored concrete over time, depending on the type of pigment used (Utesena & Pernicova, 2022). Additionally, a study investigated the use of red mud and kaolin waste in the production of a new building material, specifically a pozzolanic pigment for colored concrete and mortar (Arruda Junior et al., 2022). These academic endeavors collectively contribute valuable insights into the aesthetic and performance dimensions of colored concrete, reflecting its increasing popularity in the construction industry (Shah et al., 2021; Li et al., 2022; Naik, 2020; Kishore & Gupta, 2020; Chyliński et al., 2022; Karagüler, 1503 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 2002; Karagüler, 2003; Özkul, 2005; Sharifi & Sheibani, 2022; Utesena & Pernicova, 2022; Arruda Junior et al., 2022). Exploring Colored Concrete Applications: A Concise Overview Colored concrete has become a favored building material in contemporary architectural practices, attracting attention for its pronounced aesthetic potential. Integration of color pigments into the concrete mix expands the palette beyond conventional gray tones, offering a spectrum of colors that substantially enhance the visual appeal of architectural endeavors (Tau et al., 2023; de Sousa et al., 2020; Assaad et al., 2022). The resultant color intensity of cured concrete is intricately influenced by various factors inherent in the concrete mix production process, notably the type and color of the cement employed. Parameters such as the quantity of aggregate, water-to-cement ratio, mold absorption, release agent type, and, in the case of colored concrete, the pigment dosage and color tone play pivotal roles in determining the outcome (Golshan et al., 2023; Jinnai, 2020; Saade & Assaad, 2022). The dosage of added pigment is typically expressed in terms of the weight of the binder, emphasizing precision in weight rather than volume. Misinterpretations or deviations in the bulk density of the pigment used during the addition process can lead to undesirable fluctuations in the resulting color intensity, underscoring the importance of meticulous dosage control (Jinnai, 2020; Saade & Assaad, 2022). Furthermore, due to its chemical composition, an often-overlooked component profoundly influences the concrete hardening process, thereby impacting the ultimate state of the concrete (Mahmud & Abdulrehman, 2021). This intricate interplay of variables underscores the need for a comprehensive understanding and precise management of factors contributing to concrete coloration, ensuring optimal aesthetic outcomes in architectural applications. Conclusion In contemporary construction practices, there has been a substantial upsurge in using pigments to design concrete structural elements, enhancing conventional concrete's aesthetic appeal. Colored concretes derived from these pigments find extensive application, particularly in selfcompacting concretes, repair mortars, and paving and curb stones adorning parks and gardens. The prevalence of colored concrete, particularly in Arab and Gulf countries, is noteworthy in today's construction landscape, attributed to elevated living standards, cutting-edge construction techniques, and a growing preference for intricate works and decorative elements among end-users. Despite the evident advantages of colored concrete, scientific research in this domain remains relatively scarce compared to other engineering disciplines. Structural-colored concrete emerges as a material offering unique aesthetic qualities, disrupting the monotony of 1504 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal traditional buildings and proving more cost-effective as a finishing surface. The exploration of such specialized concretes is inherently innovative, given the need for more research, particularly concerning durability. The capacity to imbue concrete with hues spanning yellow, orange, red, blue, and green enhances structural attractiveness and presents captivating design opportunities. This study delves into various examples elucidating the evolving use and development of colored concrete in construction applications. By emphasizing the aesthetic and economic dimensions, it underscores the transformative impact of colored concrete in breaking traditional design paradigms and contributing to a more visually dynamic built environment.

In the course of historical development, leaders of mankind have emerged in different eras. This proves that they have a strong spirit of humanity, worldliness, and the spirit of convincing the people to follow their thoughts and views. Therefore, it is necessary to note that the great historical figures who left a significant mark in the history of the world have their place in the civilization of a certain era. Materials and Methods: It should also be noted that the life of historical figures in this process is complex, full of socio-political conflicts, and emerged in the background of contradictions. The place, knowledge, and potential of the historical figures of this period are leading in the structure of civilization, which prepares the ground for the analysis and interpretation of their skills in this process, which will be studied by the peoples of the world centuries later. Studying long-term historical processes, drawing analytical conclusions, analyzing the processes of creating the artistic image of the great historical figures of a certain nation, their recognition by the peoples of the world, and the ability to deeply understand their place in a certain historical situation are comparable. based on the example of analysis.Marcel Brion was considered a talented person who perfectly knew and understood not only French history and literature, but also world history, as well as the history of Turkic peoples. In the process of creating the image of historical figures who contributed to the creation of great history in their time, first of all, they study their history, activities, their place in social and political life, get acquainted with historical sources, and conduct long research. Along with the high assessment of the creator's research in the process of studying history and the activities of historical figures, it is shown in the example of analysis that Marcel Brion is one of the talented people who was able to reasonably and correctly assess the activities of people in world history. Starting from 1924, Marcel Brion published his first exercises in magazines such as Le Feu, L'Art vivant, Fortunio. In his early creations, the tradition of understanding man, reasonable interpretation of his psychology, analysis of unique qualities in the process of historical period and environment was leading. Together with his colleagues, he also founded the magazine Les Cahiers du Sud. There are reasons why this magazine is a leader not only in France, but also in world civilization. During the time of Marcel Brion, the magazine became famous not only in the West, but also in the world. The main reason for this is that it is also famous for expressing reasonable views, analyses, concepts, dialectic unity between life and man.The image of Amir Temur and his artistic expression are leading in the work of Marcel Brion. In the historical novels of the writer, the complex and conflicting characteristics of the era, the artistic expression of the concepts of governance and humanity are based on leadership. We tried to justify that the historical events, the life and complexities of the people of Shaqr were revived on the basis of very real events. At the core of the works of Marcel Brion's work, the artist's skill in creating an artistic expression of historical reality is based on the example of 1508 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal analysis. The talented master of Uzbek literature Muhammad Ali skill in creating the image of Amir Temur and the Timurids is comparatively analyzed on the example of the works of Marcel Brion. This allowed to analyze the poetic features of Uzbek literature, which is a component of world literature, based on the example of historical works. Key words: history, life, image, analiz, creativity. 1509 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction: In the history of Danya, the activities of great historical figures, their actions on the pages of history are represented not only by historical sources, but also by their interpretation in artistic and journalistic spheres. It is not for nothing that the artistic image of people who have taken an important place in the development of society is interpreted in epic works. The artistic image of figures from the history, together with the artistic reproduction of their various characteristics, became the basis for interpreting their spiritual world.In the interpretation of the figure of a historical figure and his artistic character, space and time, i.e., the historical function of the chronotope, also lead, because the historical figure also acts in a certain space and time. The artistic expression of this movement deepens in the chronotope. The artistic expression of the historical truth is embodied on the basis of the characteristics of the historical scene, and it requires a perfect study of the life of a person, his activity on the stage of history.In the novel "Menkim, Sahibqiron - Jahangir Temur" by the mature representative of French literature, it is based on the peculiarities of the artistic interpretations of the image of the historical figure, to show that Amir Temur's activity, his struggles, and his life full of hardships are interpreted. In the work, the understanding of a person in the series of historical events is to reveal the creative skill in the artistic expression of reality aimed at illuminating his character traits.The main feature arising from the article is to study, analyze, and draw reasonable conclusions about the expression of the image of great historical figures in world literature based on the artistic inkosi of historical reality in the artistic interpretations of the image of Amir Temur in the interpretation of Marcel Brion. The author's well-studied history of Movarounnahr and Khorasan, which is the basis for the artistic interpretation of the character of Amir Temur by the creator and historian, and the analysis of the basis for the incorporation of reasonable images into the artistic text. Review of literature: world novels, direct historical novels have their own views on the chronotope, its artistic function in the text, and world literary scholars have their own views. In particular, the theoretical views of world scientists such as H. Meyerhof [1], A. James, W. Heffernan [2], J. Guller [3], M. Atkins [4] should be noted. Also, theoretical views analyzing various artistic features of the chronotope have been noted. M. Vukanovicand, L. Grmusa [5] analyzed the dialectical unity of the chronotope, epic space and time in the novel, while N. Bemong, P. Scholars such as Borghart [6] noted the concepts of the role of space and time in the formation of the character of the historical Shavs. Russian scientists such as M.M.Bakhtin [7], E.Meletinsky [8], V.E.Khalizev [9] analyzed the characteristics of the poetics of the chronotope in the work of art, while Uzbek scientists U. Jurakulov's researches talk about the 1510 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal characteristics of the chronotope in the poetic interpretation of the creator. Yuritsa [10], and B. Toraeva analyzes the artistic functions of chronotope in modern novels [11]. A.N. Nasirov in his monograph "Artistic and vital reality" revealed the features of the chronotope in the artistic expression of historical reality [12; 13; 14]. Also, in historical novels, the individual characteristics of the artistic era [15], in the comparative-typological content [16; 17] analyzed poetic features consisting of forms, categories and methods of epic time [18; 19]. Based on the creative concept of the author of the historical novel and the general poetic concept of his work, he analyzed and made theoretical conclusions based on the role of the artistic era in the formation of the character of the hero of the work [20].It is possible to observe the unique interpretations of the character of the master Amir Temur, because in the interpretations of the novel "Jahongir Temur" by the French historian, scientist and writer Marcel Brion, the artistic expression of the truth of history is skillfully illuminated. It can be justified that the artistic expression of the interpretations in the writer's novel is skillfully interpreted [21]. The main part. It is a work covering the life and activities of our great grandfather Amir Temur from the history pages of the French historian, scientist, writer Marcel Brion. In the work, Amir interprets the period from Temur's childhood to the last moments of his life. In the novel, his mental and spiritual image is reasonably revealed. At the heart of this, it can be observed that the environment of the period in which the hero of the work lived is also interpreted very reasonably.In the novel, Marcel Brion, speaking of the birth of Amir Temur, his father's views on his child, it is not without reason that he pays serious attention to the specific customs and traditions of the peoples of the East: "My father's name is Turagai, the city of Kesh He was one of the owners. He was a person who gained special respect and attention among the residents of the city. He had a dream some time before I was born, in which an angel came to him and put a sword in his hand. My father took the sword and swung it over his head, and they woke up immediately" [21, p. 3]. As the work begins with these interpretations, one can observe the originality of its interpretations. From the first pages of the work, it is not for nothing that it begins with the centuries-old customs and principles of the people of Shaqr. Mahmud Tragai's dream also brought a unique artistry to the work. It is inextricably linked with the father's dream, the interpretation of its reasons, and the birth of Amir Temur more than a year later.Character centers the system of events and the components of the plot. The personality of the hero is formed according to the direction of the will. The meaning and content of the image achieves social status at the intersection of interests and needs. Therefore, human nature is such that he always feels helpless in the face of objective reality. The social essence determines the lifestyle 1511 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal and living space of each character. Rather, society's demands and requirements, or fate's judgment, play an important role in the formation of human character. The complete and fullblooded nature of the artistic character depends on the pathos of a number of aesthetic criteria. In our opinion, the poet's poetic skill is manifested in the impartial description of images on the border of possibility and impossibility, dream and dream, ideal and the most complicated situations of life.A serious development in the psyche of the hero goes back to defining characteristic points. A person who realizes his identity becomes a member of a progressive society. A writer infuses a simple observation with a profound and extraordinary generalization through the medium of description. It seems that the image of Shogosim, who is firm in his beliefs and life views, has become a criterion of spiritual maturity. His character acquires its own depth. It also becomes a defining feature of spiritual maturity. In fact, only a person who loves life with all his being will appreciate it and feel its value. Living life consciously prevents mistakes and defects.In the novel, Maresel Brion embodies his life ideas with the help of a clear human image. The author illuminates the very personal, unique inner world of his characters. It elevates the true expression of the spiritual world to the level of the main goal. While interpreting the youth period of Amir Temur, the artist reveals very reasonable factual images, which proves that Marcel Brion studied this period perfectly. Let's pay attention to the author's interpretations: "The idea to further strengthen the power, to further strengthen the power of the ruler of the land of Movarounnahr arose because of my passion for hunting. Autumn month of 757 AH. I am twenty one years old. We went hunting in the desert. I sent some of my soldiers and ordered them to make a circle across the desert and drive the wild birds towards the center. I, along with several military commanders, occupied the places where the birds fled. This place was north-west of Samarkand. I did not know that this place belongs to the "Kurultoy" tribe" [pages 21, 39].If we look at the images, we can see that based on Marcel Brion's forms of expression, the interpretations that serve to reveal the unique characteristics of Amir Temur are leading. Because the development of the next events in the novel is human I made it my goal to make plans for such military operations that would cover at least two or three years. So that I don't have to wait for spring to return to Movarounnahr in the winter season and go on a trip again... On the sixth day of my arrival in Samarkand, I went out into the desert. After building a camp, I began to prepare warriors for the military expedition to be carried out in the land of the Kipchaks" [21, page 165].In the interpretations of the novel, we can see that Amir Temur is a thoughtful person, in his views, he respects and protects the people around him, strictly controls every situation of the army, looks at their situation and gives them wider opportunities. 1512 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal We observe that he responds to a person with his human qualities.In the interpretations of Marcel Brion, along with humanity, the need to make very responsible decisions for military actions was very well and reasonably absorbed into the development of events. Amir Temur wanted to leave Iran in the late fall in order to fight against the Mongols, but at the same time, he understood very well how difficult it was to walk through the mountains and desert deserts with soldiers in cold weather. He orders to return to Samarkand. A week after arriving in Samarkand, he leaves for the desert to prepare for battle. The fact that he makes a firm decision in such situations, taking into account the opinions of the officials, shows his human qualities.Marcel Brion's poetic skill is shown in clearly and truthfully defining the roots of the vices that are forming in the nature of the hero. In the novel, the human existence and the spirit of the time are expressed consistently and deeply, holistically and completely. The novel reveals the mental world of the hero in detail, and also expresses a conscious creative attitude to reality. The integrity of the work is ensured by the combination of details with memories, the author's point of view is mixed with the speech of the hero, and the depth of the philosophical and journalistic scope. Reality brings the reader into the inner world of the hero and gradually guides him to the social essence. At first glance, the novel seems like a psychological work, because the interpretations, expressions, and experiences of Amir Temur are very reasonable. Conclusion: Marcel Brion illuminates the artistic character of the writer's character, the conflicts in his inner world through an internal monologue. This testifies to the poetic skill of the writer. Although we observe unique interpretations of the inner monologue in the prose, we can witness that the writer effectively used the inner monologue to describe the psyche of the hero in his time.Marcel Brion poetically interprets the social environment of the 14th century, the spirit of the era, based on artistic criteria, through the conflict and struggle of the characters in the plot of the work of art, the conflicts between the hero and the environment, and in his psyche. Through the spiritual world of the hero, he creates the image of the king and scientist Ulugbek, who is a part of history. By developing the spiritual and spiritual world of man, he summarizes the philosophical concepts of life, society and historical period. 1513 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal STUDENTS IN THE PROCESS OF INDEPENDENT EDUCATION FORMING KNOWLEDGE SKILLS Botirov Azizbek MIRZAKARIMOVICH Tashkent International University of Kimyo, Teacher of the Samarkand branch Abstract In the process of globalization, humanity's attitude to life and existence is formed and various features emerge. In this process, the activities of students, their role in the development of society, and the formation of knowledge skills are being expressed in different ways. Today, the formation and development of various pedagogical technologies in the modern education also supports these views. As education is based on the process of formation of knowledge and skills, it is noted that it is necessary not to forget the existence of strict responsibility of the student in this process.In addition to modern principles of teaching, international strategies, new approaches, the introduction of the global and international education system into the scientific methodology, the essence of taking national traditions into account has been revealed. Also, priority aspects of the use of the international concepts of the pedagogue, the researches and experiences being conducted on a global scale, and the formation of the principles of a reasonable approach were analyzed. Because the formation of changes in the educational process on the basis of international standards, together with the expansion of students' opportunities for learning, the process of self-control, the need for the formation of skills, is based on the experiences of world pedagogy. .The use of modern educational technologies, based on their characteristics, the pedagogical and psychological aspects of the specific principles in the tradition of application to the educational process were also analyzed. Along with increasing the responsibility of the pedagogue in the educational process, along with the manifestation of potential, knowledge and talent, the possibilities of independent work and research skills in the student are approached from the pedagogical point of view.Analytical approach is also given to the need to pay serious attention to the formation of the ability of the teacher to acquire knowledge in the students with the help of educational tools, and to develop the ability to independently study, conduct research and experiments on specific topics. . In addition to a deep understanding of life and changes in society, the student's activity is especially noted for the importance of correctly and reasonably understanding the innovations in the field of education, enriching his views on this with the theoretical views of world pedagogy.One of the main features of today's integration process is the formation of a selfmanagement system in the educational process, the development of skills in this regard, and the level of the acquired concepts at the level of international requirements. A student with selfcontrol skills develops higher knowledge and skills than those who are focused only on the results of teacher control. This gives a wide opportunity for the student to learn the essence of learning, to become a mature specialist in his field, and to become a staff at the level of international requirements. In this article, it is emphasized that the formation of the ability of students to learn, which gives them a reasonable opportunity to understand the possibility of independent education. Key words: pedagogue, motivation, skills, independent education. 1516 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Enter. Pupils and students will have the opportunity to form independent opinions, draw conclusions, and execute judgments. He will have a wider opportunity to perform independent work, to express his views in creative and analytical approaches, and to record his concepts in a reasonable manner. Each student should have a deep sense of responsibility, enrich their independent understanding of their views, and open a wide way to allow them to draw reasonable conclusions.The main activity of students in the process of completing independent educational tasks is to enable them to make independent conclusions, to express their concepts in a simple but reasonable way. It was based on the fact that it directly serves to ensure the student's activity and curiosity. To ensure that the student tries to record the concepts he will explain based on the speaking lesson.Literature review. In the main part of the literature on the topic, an attempt was made to pay serious attention to the processes of independent education, but the essence of this concept was not adequately explained. The characteristics of the art of oratory have been recorded since ancient times. In this work, attention is paid to the views about the specific principles of public speaking [1]. On the basis of the art of public speaking, the concept of recording is proved to be the embodiment of the concept of clear, expressive recording [2]. Approaching the views in the mentioned literature theoretically, we would like to note that it is necessary to be directly aware of the student's way of thinking, his oratory art [3]. In order to produce a highly qualified specialist, it is noted that it is necessary not only to train the student, but also to form the practice of independent work [4], familiarization with literature [5], drawing conclusions [6].Content. At the heart of today's changes in the field of education in the process of globalization, it is necessary to organize the independent work of the student into a certain system, to make him feel his activity at a high level. At the heart of any discovery is the fact that, together with the activity of a person, he has consciously decided that his independent research will lead him, which will give him a wide opportunity for fortunetelling.Serious reforms in Uzbekistan are becoming more visible in the field of education, which requires the persons who determine the development of the society directly to form the conscious and thinking of students, and also to form their sufficient knowledge and skills in such a process. Therefore, it is necessary to note the need to study the education system of France, England, the USA, Germany, Japan, which are the leading countries of the world, to introduce their most characteristic aspects in this field, to form cooperation with their leading experts, and it is necessary to note that today's development requires such aspects. . Reasonable thinking is necessary for the maturity of each person, for him to add his share to the development of society within the limits of his ability. 1517 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Education of young people is very important in the development of society. At the heart of this is the development of the future, the consistency and activity of the next generations, which is the basis for explaining the various features of the process. In addition to forming a logical consistency in all aspects of continuous education, which is the basis for ensuring the literacy of students, it is necessary to allow him to think independently. The main feature of this concept is the presence of advanced ideas in the student's views, regardless of the language he communicates.The main feature of the family education system in the Republic of Uzbekistan is to ensure the activity of each student, to comprehensively reveal the methods of independent analytical approaches in the study process. Because during the student's education, it is not limited to lectures, practicals, and seminars, but the most important of them is to take a serious look at their independent research, rulings and conclusions, while ensuring the logical consistency of each of the specified topics. The student's independent work, together with expanding the possibility of understanding the scope of the topics, allows him to enrich his thinking.Don't forget that independent education allows students to gain a deeper understanding of the activity of students and the effectiveness of their research on a given topic. It should not be forgotten that the goal is to give students a wider opportunity to think and make judgments. It is necessary to analyze the performance of daily activities on the basis of free concepts, and to pay serious attention to the main principles of their views when covering the specified topic. One of the criteria that determines the level of a student's adequate education requires a serious attitude to their independent research activities. It is one of the correct and sufficient methods of acquiring knowledge, together with determining the student's social activity, providing a basis for his independent views, research, familiarization with the text, analysis of the necessary topic, deep understanding of their characteristics and drawing conclusions based on the use of literature. It is also necessary for him to feel his responsibility.In addition to creating a wide opportunity for the student to get independent education, it is also important to create a wide opportunity for him, to constantly encourage his research in the way of creating knowledge and innovation. This, together with the expansion of the student's ability to think, creates conditions for an increase in self-confidence. Helping the student to be successful in his studies and research, making him confident in the knowledge he has received, will have a positive effect on his further work.A science teacher should not forget that every student is a person who provides the future, and should treat him from this point of view. This allows the student's respect for the teacher to increase, as well as his confidence in himself and his work in a dialectical unity. There is also a great content phenomenon in the communication between the 1518 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal student and the teacher. Because paying attention to the logicality of each student's reasoning, reasonable thinking, the consistency and sequence of concepts, encouraging them in this process, gives a wide opportunity to increase their confidence. It is necessary to consistently listen to the student's thoughts and ensure that he does not deviate from the topic. It is also possible to give a reasoned statement of the scope of the specified topic, sometimes orally, sometimes in writing. The combination of these two situations, together with his independent views, allows his literacy to grow. Summary. It is necessary to emphasize that every understanding of the student should be based on the textuality instilled in his views, and should also form the culture of communication. During the dialogue, it is necessary to pay serious attention to the student's eloquence, methods of conveying the scope of concepts, and not to forget to encourage them from time to time. Paying serious attention to how a student learns independent tasks in the field of science, expands his thinking as well as the ability to understand science and draw logical conclusions. It should not be forgotten that the eloquence formed in the student in this process gives a wide opportunity to form all the processes of oral and written presentation of the topic. Because educational processes focused on a person prepare the ground for the enrichment of his concepts and are the basis for the rise of self-confidence. 1519 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INFORMATION IN THE PROCESS OF ELECTRONIC EDUCATION METHODS OF ENSURING SECURITY Rakhimov Akmal AKBAROVICH Tashkent International University of Kimyo, Teacher of the Samarkand branch ABSTRACT In the following years, it became possible to generalize the reforms in the field of education in Uzbekistan with pedagogical achievements in the gradual development of world civilization, to understand the leading principles in a coherent manner, and to create an environment for the exchange of experiences. In this process, there is a need to establish concepts, news, their place in the information service in every field of education. It was specially noted that there is a need to further improve the continuous education system, to rapidly implement forms of education at the level of quality and meeting international standards. The essence of the reforms aimed at bringing out the educational process in harmony with the modern needs of the labor market is explained.Considering the essence of the changes in the world education system as the need to understand a person, the process of staffing preparation together with modern pedagogical technologies, with the understanding of its essence, is related to the process of formation. One of the unique principles of the effectiveness of the lesson was the generalization of the concepts arising from the conscious approach of the student.The changes in the basis of educational development show that non-traditional interactive teaching methods have also entered in organic unity with the traditional methodology. This, together with expanding the possibility of effective work of pedagogues, creates an opportunity for the introduction of the electronic education process. It is noted that the formation of attitudes towards the principles and principles of the national methodology, and the fact that it is changing based on the standards of education, made it possible to advance opinions based on analytical views on the basis of concepts in the field of global education.The benefits of the electronic education process require a deep understanding of its essence and justification of its methodological features. Analytical approach to situations such as the essence of views in the educational system of developed countries, a reasonable analysis of its methodological and educational features, drawing conclusions. In person-oriented education, emphasis is placed on increasing the attention of the teacher to the independent research of students, and the processes of providing remote evaluation based on the electronic system are also based on theoretical foundations and concepts. In this process, the principles of protection of information and its protection against attacks were expressed.It cannot be denied that the basis of information security in the elearning process is the evaluation of the student, the result of his aspirations for research. In the process of continuous education along with the change in the essence of the views, it was felt that there is also a demand to move towards world education standards and to have a reasonable approach to its leading principles. One of the most characteristic aspects of the period. Discussions about educating talented and potential cadres and ensuring the perfection of the information system in the main educational process were also discussed. Key words: training, characteristic, electronicization, trust, aspiration. 1521 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Enter. Long-term research shows that it cannot be denied that electronicization is the demand of the times, that it has its own principles. Because it is natural for a student who steps into a family educational institution to have great confidence and love for education. However, it is necessary to create an opportunity to further develop their activities, views, love for the image. Every student is looking for a scientific leader, a mentor who will try to open the knowledge and potential in him, and he is looking for him. It is necessary to take into account the unique talent of the student, his interest and love for his profession. This process also requires the meaningful grazing of every moment of the student. Because the views in the process of globalization, the integration system also bring about reforms in the current education system. In this regard, it should not be forgotten that a number of tasks such as the development and implementation of the electronic education system, its mechanism, strict control of information security have already formed as one of the global problems. Therefore, the merits of the electronic information system, the tradition of its formation on the basis of the established laws, and the exchange of experience with the developed educational system of the world are also required. Literature review. The development of the electronic information system makes it possible to form its features on the basis of a wide range of possibilities. In the textbook "Psychology", E.G. Ghaziyev noted how difficult a task it is to describe a person and explain his character, and he emphasized that the process of globalization manifests its various characteristics, and in the process of information [1] and dissemination, it affects the psychology of a person. focused on [2]. In the textbook "Preschool Pedagogy" by F.R. Kadirova and others, it was noted that the role of the information system is incomparable in the early formation of the child [3], and the concepts that allow him to think correctly and logically [4] are recognized. The materials of the conference "Global Education and Development of Methodology" also touched on such issues to a certain extent. attention was paid to primary information [5]. The main part. In the following years, at the heart of the reforms in the field of education in Uzbekistan, the desire to prepare personnel responding to the era of globalization has increased. Therefore, measures are being developed to further improve the educational system, increase its quality and efficiency. In the educational system, opening up the inner potential of students, giving them a wide opportunity to think and express independent concepts, adapting their activities to the modern spirit, and enabling them to become individuals and experts who respond to the processes of integration. required. They were required to work on new projects, 1522 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal to reveal the main features of the information system, to be able to justify its place in the process of globalization, and to be sure of its activity in this process. Student's activity and its characteristics are at the heart of the development of reforms in the educational system. In 2017-2021, in the "Strategy of Actions" according to the five priority areas of the development of the Republic of Uzbekistan, further improvement of the continuous education system, increasing the possibilities of quality education services, continuing the policy of training highly qualified personnel in line with the modern needs of the labor market it was not without reason that the notions of continuation were firmly established. On the basis of these concepts, together with reforms in the education system, a number of issues such as further improvement of research and innovation activities, implementation of scientific and innovation achievements into practice were put forward.Indeed, today's globalization process requires modernization of all sectors. Therefore, in recent years, the introduction of traditional interactive methods into the field of education, in order to ensure its gradual development, makes it possible to improve the conditions of giving and receiving information. Based on this, it should be noted that the principles and principles of the national methodology are closely related to the new innovative teaching methods. The basis of modern education is the electronic information system, its functions play a leading role, which is manifested in an integral unity with the development of this field.As the reforms in the field of education are implemented, the need for effective and reasonable use of international concepts of education and the results of research conducted at the world level has emerged, which has also created an opportunity to study and implement the leading principles in the field of education of developed countries. Together with the production of the research results, it also creates the possibility to continue in a logical consistency. Today, it is necessary to note that the development of world science is closely related to the achievements in education, therefore, the strengthening of the information system has also formed its own principles.Information security also allows keeping electronic documents and their necessary aspects secret. On the basis of the reforms in the field of education, distance learning of the student has formed the need to ensure the proper operation of various information systems. Because the results of research in the field of education and the content of the content are the basis for improving these theoretical views and paying serious attention to them. Summary. The excellence of any field of education is inextricably linked to its electronicization and demonstration of its security. It should not be forgotten that the concept of globalization is based on this concept. The development of human thinking, together with 1523 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal the embodiment of the features of any era, is in a dialectic unity with the criteria determining the development of society in their views, reforms. This, in turn, is reflected in the distribution and reception of information together with the improvement of the electronic system. In general, from the end of the 20th century to the first quarter of the 21st century, the rise of social reforms, the renewal of scientific networks allowed the updating of the characteristics of the information system. Each social reality sets specific goals and tasks for a certain science, which allows it to expand its features and express the uniqueness of its principles. 1524 VI.

According to the in vitro cytotoxic activity results, although the synthesized compound had antiproliferative activity against both cell lines, its effect was found to be lower than cisplatin. IC50 values of this Schiff base molecule were obtained as 61.62 and 45.22 µM in A549 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines, respectively. Keywords: Antiproliferative activity, Cancer, Thymol. 1526 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INTRODUCTION The incidence and mortality rates of cancer vary by region, country, and type. The most common types of cancers worldwide include lung, breast, colorectal, prostate, and stomach cancers. However, the incidence and mortality rates of specific types of cancer vary by region and population. The number of new cancer cases diagnosed annually continues to increase globally. This increase is partly due to factors such as population growth, aging, changes in lifestyle habits (such as smoking, diet, and physical activity), and improvements in cancer detection and diagnosis.One class of extensively used organic chemicals is Schiff bases, or imines, which have a wide range of applications in pharmaceutical, organic, analytical, and bioorganic chemistry, among other domains [1,2]. Numerous biological actions, including antifungal, antibacterial, antimicrobial, genotoxic, antiviral, antioxidant, and anticancer properties, have been widely recognized [3-8]. Schiff bases have potential applications in optical switching devices, nonlinear optical devices, security, and trace inspection devices, in addition to various biological functions [9]. Thymol, scientifically referred to as 2-isopropyl-5methylphenol is the predominant constituent found in thyme plants [10]. Thymol, a highly potent molecule, is as a fundamental synthetic precursor for the fabrication of a diverse array of pharmacologically active compounds [11]. Moreover, the substitution of a compound with an imine functional group greatly enhances the biologically active characteristics of Schiff bases, which are heavily reliant on their molecular configuration [9-11].In this study, a novel thymol-linked imino compound was synthesized by the reaction of 4-aminothymol and an appropriate aldehyde to determine its cytotoxic activity. Its structure was elucidated by FTIR, NMR, and elemental analysis. The antiproliferative activity of this compound was tested against two human cancer cell lines. EXPERIMENTAL Materials and Methods All chemical substances and solvents used in the production of the desired compounds and laboratory experiments were obtained from commercial vendors such as Merck, SigmaAldrich, Across Organics, and Thermo Fisher Scientific, and were employed without the need for supplementary purification. The melting points of the synthesized compound was determined utilizing a DMP-100 digital melting point apparatus. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) was conducted using a Perkin Elmer Spectrum 400 spectrometer. Attenuated total reflection (ATR), in combination with infrared spectrometry using a Fourier transform, was employed in the analyses. 1H NMR and 1527 13 C NMR spectra, were acquired in VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal DMSO-d6 solutions using a Bruker AVANCE III 400 MHz spectrometer. Tetramethylsilane served as an internal reference at frequencies of 400 MHz and 100 MHz for the 1H NMR and 13 C NMR spectra, respectively. Elemental analysis was conducted using a Thermo Scientific Flash 2000 elemental analyzer. Synthesis of 4-aminothymol 2-isopropyl-5-methylphenol (5.00 g) was dissolved in 25 mL EtOH, and 25 mL concentrated HCl was slowly added to the solution. After the mixture was cooled to 0 °C, NaNO2 (3.60 g) was added and the mixture was stirred for 2 h. To obtain 2-isopropyl-5-methyl-4-nitrosophenol, the product was filtered, cleaned with cold water, and dried in a vacuum oven after exposed to open air. 2-isopropyl-5-methyl-4-nitrosophenol (1.00) g) was dissolved in 8 mL NH4OH and 14 mL distilled water. C2H5NS (0.84 g) was then slowly added to the solution and stirred for 2 h at 25 °C. The product was filtered, washed with cold water, dried first in open air and then in a vacuum oven. Brown solid; yield: 72%; m.p. 180-181 °C (lit. [12] 177 °C). Synthesis of 4-((3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzylidene)amino)-2-isopropyl-5-methylphenol Isovanillin (0.1 mmol) dissolved in EtOH (5 mL) was added dropwise to a solution of 4aminothymol (0.1 mmol) dissolved in EtOH (5 mL). After refluxing the mixture for 6 h, the reaction was completed using TLC. The resulting solid was filtered, dried, and crystallized in ethanol.

Antiproliferative activity studies The antiproliferative activity studies were performed according to following the procedure of our previous studies [13, 14]. The human breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB-231; ATCC® HTB26TM) and the human lung cancer cell line (A549; ATCC® CCL-185TM) were purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, USA). Cancer cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium-high glucose (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and %1 glutamax. The cells were seeded at a density of 5 × 103 cells/well in sterile 96well plates. The MDA-MB-231 and A549 cells were exposed to different concentrations of compound (200, 100, 50, and 25 µM) for 72 h. The MTT solution was added to each well of the plates and incubated for another 2 h. Absorbance values were measured in the Elisa plate reader at 590 nm. IC50 values were calculated using GraphPad Prism Software 5. RESULT AND DISCUSSION Chemistry In this study, we synthesized a new thymol-linked imino compound by reacting the 4aminothymol compound synthesized in our previous study [10] with isovanillin in ethanol to investigate its antiproliferative activity. The synthesis of this compound is illustrated in Scheme 1. Thymol-linked imino compound underwent characterization through elemental analysis as well as spectroscopic techniques including FT-IR, 1H, and 13C NMR.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INTRODUCTION Lung cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the lungs. It is one of the most common types of cancer and a leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. There are two main types of lung cancer: non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Non-smallcell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for approximately85% of all lung cancer cases. It includes several subtypes such as adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and large cell carcinoma. Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is less common, but tends to grow and spread more aggressively than NSCLC.Hydrazone derivatives, a versatile class of organic compounds, are renowned as an essential compound class in organic chemistry and widely utilized in diverse domains within the field [1]. Hydrazones with the general chemical formula R1CO-NH-N=CR1(H)R2 have gained significant attention in recent times because of their effectiveness as reactive agents in the creation and production of novel compounds [2]. The compounds in question, which are produced through the reaction of hydrazine with aldehydes or ketones in appropriate organic solvents, sometimes in the presence of an acid catalyst, can be readily identified using elemental analysis and established spectral techniques. These compounds can function as both nucleophiles and electrophiles and can undergo various reductive and oxidative changes. [3]Recently, the attention of medicinal chemists has focused on hydrazones owing to their biological activities [4,5]. Their significance has increased in recent years because they are frequently utilized in the synthesis and discovery of biologically active molecules in medicinal chemistry [6]. Numerous studies have reported that these compounds possess a wide range of biological activities, including antioxidant, anti-bacterial, anticonvulsant, analgesic, antimicrobial, anti-HIV, anti-tubercular, anticancer, antidepressant, and so on [7-15]. In this study, a novel fluorine-containing hydrazone compound was synthesized via the reaction of 4-fluorobenzoic hydrazide with an appropriate aldehyde. The structure of the compound was elucidated using elemental analysis and spectroscopic methods such as FT-IR, 1H, and 13 C NMR. The cytotoxic activity of this molecule was investigated in a human lung cancer cell line in vitro for 72 h. EXPERIMENTAL Materials and Methods All starting materials (4-fluorobenzoic hydrazide (CAS No.: 456-06-4), 3-bromo-5chlorobenzaldehyde (CAS No.: 188813-05-0), and solvents employed in this investigation were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich and Merck. These were used without additional refinement for all the experiments. The progression of the reactions was observed using TLC plates, which 1537 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal were subjected to UV light (254 nm) for identification of the spots. The melting point of synthesized hydrazone compound was assessed using a DMP-100 digital melting point apparatus and were not corrected. FT-IR spectra were recorded on a Perkin Elmer Spectrum 400 spectrometer with ATR (Attenuated Total Reflectance). 1H and 13 C NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker Avance III 400 MHz spectrometer using DMSO-d6 as the solvent and tetramethylsilane as an internal standard at 400 MHz and 100 MHz, respectively. Elemental analyses (C, H, N) were performed using a Thermo Scientific Flash 2000 elemental analyzer. Synthesis of N’-(3-bromo-5-chlorobenzylidene)-4-fluorobenzohydrazide 3-Bromo-5-chlorobenzaldehyde (1 mmol) and 4-fluorobenzoic hydrazide (1 mmol) were dissolved in ethanol (10 mL). Following reflux of the reaction mixture for approximately 4 h under constant stirring, it was allowed to cool to ambient temperature. Subsequently, the resulting crude product was removed via filtration, meticulously rinsed multiple times with diethyl ether, and finally crystallized using ethanol to obtain the hydrazone derivative (Scheme 1).

Figure 3. 13C NMR spectra of hydrazone compound Cytotoxic Activity Studies The cytotoxic activity studies were performed according to the procedure described in our previous studies [16, 17]. The human lung cancer cell line (A549; ATCC® CCL-185TM) was purchased from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, USA). Cancer cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium-high glucose (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and %1 glutamax. The cells were seeded at a density of 5 × 103 cells/well in sterile 96-well plates. A549 cells were exposed to different concentrations of compound (200, 100, 50, and 25 µM) for 72 h. The MTT solution was added to each well of the plates and incubated for another 2 h. Absorbance values were measured in the Elisa plate reader at 590 nm. IC50 values were calculated using GraphPad Prism Software 5. 1540 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal RESULT AND DISCUSSION Chemistry In this study, a new hydrazone compound was obtained by the condensation of 3-bromo-5chlorobenzaldehyde with the corresponding 4-fluorobenzoic hydrazide (Scheme 2). The structure of thesynthesized compound was elucidation using FT-IR, 1H- and 13 C- NMR spectroscopic techniques, and elemental analyses (C, H, and N). Elemental analyses (C, H, and N) were suitable for the proposed structures of the synthesized target compounds. Scheme 2. Synthesis of new hydrazone compound Spectroscopic Analysis The FT-IR spectrum of the hydrazone compound exhibited a peak at 3169 cm-1, which can be attributed to the N-H stretching band. The presence of C=N absorption bands in the 1601 cm-1 region provides strong evidence for the formation of an azomethine group (–NH-N=CH–). Furthermore, the occurrence of a distinct and strong band in the 1660 cm-1 range, corresponding to C=O, confirms the hydrazone nature of the target compound (Figure 4). Figure 4. Display of important data for FT-IR on the structure of hydrazone compound In the 1H NMR spectrum of the hydrazone derivative, the proton belonging to the NH proton resonated as a singlet at 12.16 ppm. Another proof of the successful synthesis of hydrazone compound was the disappearance of the proton peaks of the free amino group of the hydrazide 1541 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal compound. The proton peaks belonging to –NH-N=CH–resonated at 8.32 ppm and singlet, as expected in the target compound. The aromatic protons of the benzene ring resonated between 7.38 and 8.00 ppm. The 13 C NMR spectrum of the target compound showed that the C=O carbon in the carbonyl group resonated at 165.97 ppm, and the aromatic carbons resonated in the range of 162.76-116.06 ppm. Resonance of the carbon atom of the –C=N group in the range of 144.97 ppm (Figure 5). Figure 5. 1H and 13C NMR demonstration on the structure of hydrazone compound Cytotoxic Activity Studies The cytotoxicity of hydrazone and cisplatin was evaluated at concentrations of 200, 100, 50, and 25 µM in a lung cancer cell line for 72 h using the MTT assay. The results are presented in Table 1. Table 1. IC50 results for compounds against human lung cancer cell line Compounds IC50 (µM) A549 IC50 Hydrazone compound 137.80 Cisplatin 13.22 (half maximal inhibitory concentration) refers to the concentration of a compound that inhibits biological processes or responses by 50%. This compound has a high IC50 value of 137.80 µM, indicating that relatively high concentrations are required to achieve 50% inhibition of the biological response. According to the results in the table above, cisplatin was almost ten times more effective against the A549 cell line than the hydrazone compound. CONCLUSION In this study, a novel fluorine-containing hydrazone compound was prepared from 4fluorobenzoic hydrazide and 3-bromo-5-chlorobenzaldehyde. 1542 This compound was VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INTRODUCTION Research, learning, and teaching are the needs of every society and they play a big role in spreading scientific services and improving society (Salehi & Ahanchian, 2012). The desire to solve social problems in a healthier way is one of the most important reasons for conducting scientific research (Aslan & Karagül, 2016). At universities, the Scientific Research Methods course is taught at undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctorate degreesStudents who take this course at the undergraduate level are worried about whether the gains they have gained from the course in business life will work for them (Murtonen et al., 2008). Undergraduate and graduate students think that they will encounter problems in many subjects such as being inadequate in the literature review, data collection, and data analysis. Scientific Research Methods course; The basic concepts of research include research types, research features, research methods, research processes, data collection and analysis methods, report writing, and interpretation of research results. Students who attend the Scientific Research Methods course generally acquire skills such as accessing information, determining the characteristics of the research, knowing the ways of accessing the data, and determining the research stages (Kurt et al, 2011). The main purpose of this research is to determine the self-efficacy levels of Afyonkarahisar Health Sciences University, Medical Faculty students concerning the Project Implementation course and to reveal the relationship between this course and the students' attitudes towards another course, namely, Scientific Research Methods. MATERİALS AND METHODS While Afyonkarahisar Health Sciences University, Faculty of Medicine students who are enrolled in their 4th, 5th, and 6th year comprise the population, the sample of this project consists of the students who take the Project Implementation course and want to participate in the studyThe Scientific Research self-efficacy scale developed by Tuncer et al. Was used to determine the students' self-efficacy levels in the Project Application Study course (Tuncer & Ozeren, 2012). This scale consists of 12 items in total. These 12 items include four subdimensions: 2 of them "Literature", 2 of them "Method", 3 of them "Discussion" and 5 of them "Suggestion and Reference". The scale of attitude towards the Scientific Research Methods course developed by Yaşar consists of 20 items in total. These 20 items include four subdimensions: 6 of them are the importance of scientific research, 5 of them are cognitive "Selfconfidence", 5 of them are positive attitude "Interest", and 4 of them are daily life-professional relationship "Occupational" (Yaşar, 2004). Student t-test, Mann-Whitney U test and Structural Equation Modeling were used to evaluate the data. Structural Equation Modeling is a frequently 1548 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal used statistical method in modeling causal relationships between variables. Especially in health sciences (medicine, nursing, psychiatry, etc.), economics, social sciences, behavioral sciences (sociology, psychology, education, management, marketing, etc.) and sports sciences, it is used in the analysis of causality in evaluating the relationships between variables and in testing theoretical models (Doğan, 2015). A value of p <0.05 was accepted for statistical significance. SPSS (version 20) package program and AMOS (21.0) were used to evaluate the data. FİNDİNGS AND DİSCUSSİON A total of 155 students (75 males, 80 females) with a mean age of 22.63 ± 1.5 years participated in the study. 33.5% of the students stated that their most important aim in this lesson was to conduct scientific research and 64.5% of them stated that the Scientific Research Methods course was beneficial for the Project Application Study course. Self-efficacy scores of students who think that the Scientific Research Methods course is beneficial are significantly higher than other students (p <0.05). As can be seen from Table 1, the students who think that the Scientific Research Methods course is beneficial for the Project Application Study course; The scores of the importance of scientific research, cognitive self-confidence (ability to succeed), positive attitude (research-oriented) and daily life-professional relationship sub-dimensions are significantly higher than the other students (p <0.05).

The Goodness of Fit values obtained as a result of the Confirmatory Factor Analysis performed on the attitude scale of the Scientific Research Methods course (CMIN / DF = 2.66, GFI =0.77, CFI =0.89, NFI =0.84, AGFI =0.71 and RMSEA =0.10) has been calculated. In addition, the goodness of 1549 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal fit values obtained as a result of the confirmatory factor analysis for the Scientific Research self-efficacy scale (CMIN / DF = 4.97, GFI =0.79, CFI =0.89, NFI =0.87, AGFI =0.66 and RMSEA =0.16 ) was calculated. According to the confirmatory factor analysis results regarding the validity of the scales; It can be said that the values of the goodness of fit indices of the model created are at an acceptable level (Meydan & Şeşen, 2011). As a result of these analyses, it can be said that the factor structures in the original form of the scales were also confirmed for this study, in other words, this scale has sufficient validity. The goodness of fit values obtained as a result of the structural equation modeling created to determine the effect of the attitude of the Scientific Research Methods course on the Project Application Study course was calculated as CMIN / DF = 2.28; GFI =0.71; CFI =0.87; NFI =0.79; AGFI =0.66; It was found that RMSEA =0.09. According to these results, it can be said that the values obtained are at an acceptable level.According to the results regarding the structural equation model, it was seen that the Project Application Study course was explained positively and significantly (β= 0.81, p <0.05) by the Scientific Research Methods course and these results were statistically significant. According to these results, it can be said that as the positive attitude towards the Scientific Research Methods course increases, the self-efficacy levels of the Project Application Study course increase.Many studies have been conducted in education, psychology, sociology and generally social sciences (Baloğlu, 2003; Çoğaltay, 2016; Lei, 2008; Baki, 2017; Boswell, 2013; Zeidner, 1991). However, no such study was found in Medical Faculties. In these studies, it was stated that students developed a negative attitude toward the scientific research course. In the study, 56.1% of the students participating in the study stated that they would not choose this course if the course was elective. This high rate of students shows their negative attitude towards this course. Lei stated that high-level research anxiety reduced the sense of selfefficacy and caused people to develop negative attitudes toward research (Lei, 2008). In the study conducted by Ravazi et al., They stated that there is a significant negative relationship between research anxiety and self-efficacy. They stated that research anxiety among graduate students may have a negative effect on their performance in different ways (Razavi et al., 2017). Research anxiety can reduce the quantity and quality of students 'scientific productivity and cause students' burnout and dissatisfaction, and anxiety towards research can affect personal life and even cause physical and mental health deterioration.According to the results, it was observed that as the positive attitude towards the Scientific Research Methods course increased, the self-efficacy levels of the Project Application Study course increased. In most studies, it is stated that taking research methods courses encourages individuals to do research and increases 1550 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal their research self-efficacy levels, and individuals with high research self-efficacy are very willing to participate in research in the future (Saraçoğlu et al., 2005). It has been observed that the students who are interested in the Scientific Research Methods course, who are aware of the importance of the research and have a positive view, have the power to succeed in this course and associate it with their daily life, have higher self-efficacy in the Project Application Study course. Therefore, it is thought that emphasizing the importance of the Scientific Research Methods course to students, will increase their interest in this course and contribute to the training of students who show a positive attitude towards scientific culture. Academic education should prepare students with an understanding of the skills they need in society and their future work life (Murtonen et al., 2008). CONCLUSİON AND RECOMMENDATİONS Considering the result regarding the structural equation model, it was observed that as the positive attitude towards the Scientific Research Methods course increased, the self-efficacy levels of the Project Implementation Study course increased. Based on the fact that the students develop positive attitudes towards the areas they are interested in and love, we think that this course will shed light on the relevant parties in order to determine the deficiencies, if any, and to make the necessary arrangements against these deficiencies in order to make this course more useful. For this reason, is thought that the faculty members' attitudes towards the Scientific Research Methods course and turn towards activities that increase positive attitudes towards the effect of their approach to this course on students will have positive contributions to students.

Araştırmada kullanılan veriler Türkiye istatistik Kurumu resmi internet sitesinde yer alan ölüm veri tabanından elde edildi. Yaşa özel mortalite oranlarının değerlendirilmesinde üç farklı yaş grubu (<15, 15-19, 20-24) dikkate alındı. Joinpoint Regresyon Analizi kullanılarak intihar mortalite trendleri tahmin edildi. Yıllık yüzde değişim ortalama yıllık yüzde değişim ve bunlara ait güven aralıkları verildi. 2009-2022 döneminde yaklaşık 47.000 kişi intihar nedeniyle hayatını kaybetti. Bunun dörtte biri <24 yaş grubundadır. Joinpoint Regresyon Analizi’ne göre, erkeklerde <15 yaş grubunda periyod boyunca istatistiksel olarak anlamlı azalma görülürken (p=0.013), 20-24 yaş grubunda ise periyod boyunca istatistiksel olarak anlamlı artış görüldü (p<0.001). Kadınlarda <15 yaş grubunda periyod boyunca istatistiksel olarak anlamlı azalma, 15-19 yaş grubunda ise 2020 yılına kadar anlamlı azalma (p=0.001) sonrasında ise anlamlı olmayan artış görüldü. Bu yaş grubunda intihar düşünceleri hızla gelişebilir ve bu nedenle kriz hizmetlerinin yaygın olarak mevcut olması gerekir. Anahtar kelimeler: Joinpoint Regresyon Analizi; intihar; mortalite 1554 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal SUICIDE MORTALITY TRENDS IN CHILDREN, ADOLESCENTS AND YOUNG ADULTS IN TURKEY Abstract This study aims to analyze the trend analysis of suicide-related mortality among children, adolescents, and young people in Turkey between 2009 and 2022 by gender and age groups. The data used in the study were obtained from the mortality database on the official website of the Turkish Statistical Institute. Three different age groups (<15, 15-19, 20-24) were considered in the evaluation of age-specific mortality rates. Suicide mortality trends were estimated using Joinpoint Regression Analysis. Annual percentage change, average annual percentage change, and their confidence intervals were given. Approximately 47,000 people died by suicide in the period 2009-2022. A quarter of these were in the <24 age group. According to the Joinpoint Regression Analysis, there was a statistically significant decrease in the <15 age group in males over the period (p=0.013), while there was a statistically significant increase in the 20-24 age group over the period (p<0.001). In females, there was a statistically significant decrease in the <15 age group throughout the period a significant decrease in the 15-19 age group until 2020 (p=0.001), and a non-significant increase thereafter. Suicidal thoughts can develop rapidly in this age group and therefore crisis services should be widely available. Keywords: Joinpoint Regression Analysis; suicide; mortality 1555 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ İntihar dünya çapında önemli bir halk sağlığı sorunu olarak kabul edildiğinden intihara ilişkin epidemiyolojik çalışmalar çok sayıdadır. Dünya genelinde her yıl 703.000 kişi intihar nedeniyle hayatını kaybetmektedir. Sadece yüksek gelirli ülkelerde değil, dünyanın tüm bölgelerinde görülen küresel bir olgudur. 2019 yılında küresel intiharların %77’den fazlası düşük ve orta gelirli ülkelerde meydana gelmiştir. İntihar, 15-29 yaş grubunda dördüncü önde gelen ölüm nedenidir (WHO, 2021). Çocuklar ve ergenler arasında intihar oranları artmaya devam etmektedir; Amerika Birleşik Devletleri'nde 15 ila 19 yaş arası ergenlerde ikinci önde gelen ölüm nedenidir (Benton ve ark., 2021). Garnett ve arkadaşları intihar oranlarının 15-24 yaş arası erkeklerde 2020 ile 2021 arasında önemli ölçüde arttığını ifade etmiştir (Garnett ve Curtin, 2023). Gerstener ve arkadaşları Ekvator’da 1990 ile 2017 yıllarını kapsayan çalışmalarında, 1014 yaş arası genç erkeklerde, kızlarda, ergen erkeklerde ve genç yetişkinlerde artış olduğunu bildirmişlerdir (Gerstener, 2019). Bosna’da 2010 ile 2020 yılları arasında en büyük artışların 15 ila 29 yaş arası gençler arasında meydana geldiği vurgulanmıştır (Cilovic-Lagarija ve ark., 2021). Milena ve Irena’nın 2022 yılında dünya genelinde yaptıkları çalışmada, dünyanın birçok ülkesinde intihar ölümlerinde azalma eğilimi gözlendiğini ama bazı ülkelerde de arttığını, erkeklerde 10-19 yaş grubundaki yaşa özel intihar ölüm oranlarının, tüm yaş gruplarında kadınlara göre iki ila üç kat daha yüksek olduğunu belirtmişlerdir (Ilic ve Ilic, 2022).Becker ve arkadaşları, ruhsal hastalığı olan çocuk ve ergenlerde intihar riski 3 ila 12 kat daha yüksek olduğunu, mobingin de intihar riskini artırdığını bildirmiştir. Ayrıca, çocuklara ve ergenlere antidepresan ilaçların uygulanmasının intihar eğilimini artırdığına dair kanıtlar olduğunu ifade etmiştir (Becker ve Correll, 2020).Depresyon, duygu durum bozukluğu gibi tıbbi bozuklukların geçmişi ve bilişsel bozulmanın intihar için önemli risk faktörleri olduğu belirlenmiştir, ancak sosyokültürel faktörlerin de intihar epidemiyolojisinde önemli bir rol oynadığı göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır (Pompili ve ark., 2015). Yüksek gelirli ülkelerde her kadın ölümü başına üç erkek ölümü, düşük gelirli ve orta gelirli ülkelerde ise her iki kadın ölümü başına üç erkek ölümü oranıyla, riskte önemli cinsiyet dengesizlikleri bulunmaktadır.Bu çalışmada, Türkiye’de 2009-2022 yılları arasındaki intihara bağlı mortalitenin cinsiyet ve yaş gruplarına göre trend analizlerinin yapılması amaçlandı. MATERYAL VE METOT Veriler Türkiye İstatistik Kurumu ölüm veri tabanından elde edildi (TÜİK,2022). Uluslararası Dünya Sağlık Örgütü Uluslararası Hastalık Sınıflandırması (ICD-10)’na (World Health Organization, 2004) göre X60-X84 (intihar ve kasıtlı kendine zarar verme) kodları dikkate 1556 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal alındı. Cinsiyete göre, farklı yaş grupları (<15, 15-19, 20-24) için yaşa özel oranlar hesaplandı. Yaşa özel oranlar 100,000 kişi başına ölüm olarak ifade edildi. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde Joinpoint Regresyon Analizi (JRA) kullanıldı. JRA, iki değişken arasındaki ilişkiyi, parçalı doğrusal bir regresyon aracılığıyla açıklayan istatistiksel bir modelleme tekniğidir. Bu teknik, epidemiyolojik çalışmalarda mortalite veya insidans serilerindeki trendleri modellemekte yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. JRA’da değişim noktası “joinpoint” olarak tanımlanmış ve 2000 yılında Kim ve arkadaşları bu değişim noktalarının bulunmasında Lerman tarafından önerilen Grid Serch metodu kullanılmıştır (Kim ve ark., 2000). İstatistiksel olarak anlamlı olan her bir değişim noktası için yıllık yüzde değişin (YYD), ortalama yıllık yüzde değişim (OYYD, tüm kırılma noktalarındaki YYD değerlerinin ortalamasıdır ) ve bunlara ait %95 güven aralıkları hesaplandı. Analizler, ABD Ulusal Kanser Enstitüsü tarafından hazırlanan Joinpoint Regresyon Programı (versiyon 4.9.1.0–2021) kullanılarak gerçekleştirildi (National Cancer Institute, 2021). P<0.05 değerini istatistiksel olarak anlamlı kabul edildi. BULGULAR Türkiye’de, 2009-2022 döneminde yaklaşık 47,000 kişi intihar nedeni ile hayatını kaybetmiştir. Bunların yaklaşık %75’i erkektir. Bu dönemde <25 yaş grubunda ise intihar mortalite sayısı 11,700 kişidir. Bu toplam intihar ölümlerinin dörtte birini oluşturmaktadır. Ülkemizde bu yaş grubunda intihar mortalite oranı erkeklerde kadınlardan yaklaşık olarak 2 kat daha fazladır (Tablo 1).Yaş gruplarına göre değerlendirildiğinde erkeklerde <15 yaş grubunda periyod boyunca istatistiksel olarak anlamlı düşüş gözlenirken (p=0.013), 20-24 yaş grubunda ise periyod boyunca istatistiksel olarak anlamlı artış gözlemlendi (p<0.001) (Şekil 1, Tablo 2). 1557 VI.

Erkeklerde intihar mortalite oranının kadınlardan yaklaşık iki kat daha fazla olduğu görüldü. 1559 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Ekvador'da 25 yaş altı nüfusta intihar önemli bir halk sağlığı sorunudur ve 1990 ile 2017 yılları arasında özellikle çocuklar ve 15-24 yaş arası erkekler arasında artış göstermiştir (Gerstner, 2019). Doğan ve arkadaşlarının 2015 yılında yapmış olduğu çalışmada, 15-24 yaş grubunda dönem boyunca kadınlarda ortalama yıllık %4.9’luk anlamlı düşüş, erkeklerde ise 1987-2005 yılları arasında yıllık %4.9’luk artış sonrasında ise yıllık %2.5’lik düşüş gözlenmiştir (Doğan ve Toprak, 2015). İntihar, çoğunlukla erkeklerde görülen önemli bir halk sağlığı sorunudur. Dünya çapında yaşa özel intihar oranı erkeklerde kadınlara göre 2,3 kat daha yüksekti. Erkek:Kadın intihar oranlarının 1'den büyük olması, intihar oranlarının erkeklerde kadınlara göre daha yüksek olduğunu göstermektedir (WHO, 2021). Ülkemizde ise bu yaş grubunda intihar mortalite oranı erkeklerde kadınlardan yaklaşık olarak iki kat fazladır ve benzer sonuçlar elde edilmiştir. Kadınlar toplamda erkeklere göre yaklaşık iki kat fazla intihar girişiminde bulunmakla birlikte ölümle sonuçlanan intiharlarda erkeklerin gerisinde kalmaktadır (Kırcı, 2017). Özellikle toplumsal baskılar nedeniyle kadının kendini ifade etmesinde sesini yükseltmesinde rahat olmadığı ülke ve topluluklarda intihar girişimi bir imdat çığlığı olarak öne çıkmaktadır. Erkekler, gerçekten ölmeye kararlı olarak girişimde bulunmakta, aynı zamanda ateşli silah, motorlu araç kullanma gibi intihar yollarına daha kolay ulaşmalarından erkeklerde kadınlardan iki kat fazla başarılı intihar görülmektedir. Geleneksel erkekliğin, erkek kırılganlığı için önemli bir risk faktörü olduğu ve duygusal dışavurum, yardım arama isteksizliği veya alkol kullanımı gibi uyumsuz başa çıkma stratejilerini teşvik ettiği gösterilmiştir. Bu temel erkek eğiliminin, farklı toplumsal koşullar nedeniyle psikososyal stresi artırdığı görülmüştür (Möller, 2002). Ekonomik durgunluğun uzun süreli etkisi işsizlik ve iş güvensizliği sorununu ortaya çıkarmaktadır. Durgunluk veya ekonomik kriz yaşayan ülkelerde, erkeklerde intihar oranları artma eğilimi göstermektedir. Bu faktörlerin doğrudan veya dolaylı olarak depresyon, anksiyete, aşırı içki gibi ruh sağlığı sorunlarına ve daha sonra intihar davranışına yol açabileceği ileri sürülmektedir (Haw ve ark., 2014). Kavaklı, yaptığı çalışmasında bölgesel farklılıkların intiharda önemli rol oynadığını, 15-19 yaş grubunda Güneydoğu Anadolu, 20-24 yaş grubunda ise İstanbul’da intihar olaylarının daha yüksek olduğunu ifade etmiştir (Kavaklı, 2023). Türkiye’de son yıllardan üniversitelerin artması, mezun sayılarında da bir artış meydana getirmiştir. Bu artışa rağmen yeterli istihdamın karşılanamaması, özellikle genç işsiz sayısında önemli bir yükseliş göstermiştir. Genç nüfusa sahip olan Türkiye’de bu durum genç işsizliğin artmasına ve bu yaştaki bireylerin hayat beklentilerinin düşmesiyle birlikte intihara yönelimi arttırmaktadır (Kavaklı, 2023).Batman’da 25 yaş ve altı bireylerle yürütülen bir çalışmada en önemli intihar nedenlerinden ilk iş hayatına 1560 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal erken yaşta katılmak (çocuk işçiliği), diğeri ise erken yaşta evlilikler neticesinde çocuk gelin problemi olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır (Komisyon, 2022). Duygusal ve davranışsal düzensizlik, teşhis grupları arasında tutarlı bir şekilde intihar davranışlarıyla ilişkilendirilmiştir ve akut ve kronik olarak bağımsız risk faktörleridir (Benton ve ark., 2022). İntihar eğilimi, altta yatan psikiyatrik bozuklukların varlığında daha sık ortaya çıksa da, akut stres tepkileri veya ergenlik krizlerinden de kaynaklanabilir (Becker ve Correll, 2020) SONUÇ Dünyanın birçok ülkesinde her iki cinsiyette de kaydedilen düşüş eğilimine rağmen, intihar nedeniyle ölüm oranları bazı popülasyonlarda artış eğilimi göstermektedir (Ilic ve Ilic, 2022). İntihardaki bu artışın önlenmesine yönelik daha etkili önlemler sağlamak amacıyla, daha fazla araştırma yapılarak bu olumsuz eğilimlerin nedenlerini açıklığa kavuşturmalıdır. İntihar, özellikle incelenen yaş grubunda ülkelerin gelecekteki üretken nüfusuna yönelik kayıplara yol açması nedeniyle önemi daha da artmaktadır. Bu yaş grubuna ilişkin alınması gereken tedbirlerin belirlenmesinde intiharın sosyal, kültürel, coğrafi ve yaşla ilgili değişkenleri olduğu unutulmamalıdır. Aile, eğitim, din, ekonomi, siyaset gibi toplumsal kurumların işlevselliklerini sağlamak, toplumsal değişim ve dönüşümlerde mevcudiyetlerini ve etkinliklerini muhafaza etmek, intiharları önlemek açısından değerlidir. 1561 VI.

Yüzey modifikasyonu ise alaşımların sertlik ve aşınma dayanımlarını geliştirmenin etkili bir yoludur. Bu doğrultuda, metal ve seramik içerikli kompozit ve fonksiyonel bir kaplama tabakasının çeşitli termal püskürtme yöntemleri ile yüzeye kaplanması uygulamanın tipine ve gerekliliklerine göre çeşitli avantajlar sağlayabilir. Yapılan çalışmada yüksek özgül mukavemeti ve endüstride sık kullanılması sebebi ile geliştirilmek üzere 7075 Al alaşımı numuneler tercih edilmiştir. Kaplama sırasında numunelerin ısıdan minimum etkilenmesini sağlamak için soğuk sprey yöntemi kullanılmış ve kaplama öncesi uygulanan yüzey işlemlerinin aşınma dayanımına sertlik ve morfolojiye etkisi değerlendirilmiştir. Yüzey işlemleri olarak cam bilye ve çelik bilye ile kumlama, zımparalama ve parlatma işlemleri kullanılmıştır. Kaplamalarda DYMET K714 kodlu Ni, Zn ve Al2O3 içerikli ticari tozlar kullanılmıştır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal THE EFFECT OF SURFACE TREATMENTS ON WEAR RESISTANCE IN COLD SPRAY COATING OF 7075 ALUMINUM ALLOYS Abstract Although aluminum alloys have the advantage of high specific strength, their use in some applications is limited due to low hardness, wear, and corrosion resistance. Surface modification is an effective way to enhance the hardness and wear resistance of alloys. In this context, coating the surface with a composite and functional coating layer containing metal and ceramic components using various thermal spray methods can provide various advantages depending on the application type and requirements. In the conducted study, 7075 Al alloy samples were chosen for improvement due to their high specific strength and frequent use in the industry. The cold spray method was employed during coating to minimize the heat impact on the samples, and the effect of pre-coating surface treatments on wear resistance, hardness, and morphology was evaluated. Surface treatments such as sandblasting with glass beads and steel beads, sanding, and polishing were used. Commercial powders with the code DYMET K714 containing Ni, Zn, and Al2O3 were used in the coatings. Post-coating sample morphologies were examined using a Nikon Clemex Vision PE microscope with dedicated software. Coating thickness measurements were also performed using the same software and microscope kit from images taken from cross-sections. Microhardness tests were conducted on transverse sections of the samples, including the substrate, interfaces, and coating layers. HCK404SXV Digital Micro Vickers hardness tester was used for hardness tests, and measurements were taken under a 500-gram load. Wear tests on the samples were carried out using a CSM tribometer ball-on-disk wear apparatus. For wear tests, Al2O3 abrasive balls were slid on the sample surface with a load of 10N and a sliding speed of 10cm/s. As a result of the study, it was observed that the sample coated after sanding had the highest hardness and maximum wear resistance Keywords: Aluminum, Cold spray, Surface treatments, Wear. 1565 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş - Introduction Alüminyum alaşımı 7075-T651, yüksek mukavemet, hafiflik ve nispeten düşük maliyet gibi çeşitli avantajlar sunar ve otomobil ve uçak imalat endüstrilerinde kritik bir yapısal malzeme olarak yaygın şekilde kullanılmaktadır (Chen et al., 2019; Dursun and Sourtis, 2014). Bununla birlikte, yüzey oksidasyonu ve zayıf aşınma direnci genellikle yüksek sürtünme katsayısına ve şiddetli aşınmaya yol açar (Peng et al., 2018).Alüminyum alaşımlarının aşınma dayanımlarının geliştirilmesinde bir çok yüzey modifikasyon yöntemi ve kaplama malzemesi kullanılmaktadır. Metalik, oksitli veya yüzeyin sonradan oksitlendirilmesine yönelik, seramik ve hatta kompozit kaplamalar yapılarak alüminyum alaşımları ortamın aşındırıcı etkilerinden korunmak istenmiştir (Li et al., 2022; Duan et al., 2021). Farklı yöntemler arasında altlık malzemenin ısınmasını minimuma indirebilecek ve dolayısıyla istenmeyen oksit oluşumunu engelleyebilecek son yıllarda popüler olan bir yöntem ise soğuk sprey kaplama yöntemidir (Kim et al., 2023).Soğuk sprey kaplama sistemleri özellikle düşük basınçlı sistemlerde temelde genellikle kompresöre bağlı bir gaz ısıtıcı, süpersonik bir nozül ve bu nozüle direk olarak bağlı bir toz besleme sisteminden oluşur. Isıtılan gazlar kullanılarak tozlar bu nozülden aktarılır ve altlık yüzeylerine püskürtülür (Vaz et al., 2023). Soğuk sprey kaplama sistemine ait şematik bir gösterim Şekil 1’de verilmiştir. Şekil 1. Soğuk sprey yöntemi şematik gösterimi (Vaz et al., 2023) Bu çalışmada, 7075 alüminyum alaşım yüzeylerine iki farklı tür bilye ile kumlama işlemi, zımparalama ve parlatma yüzey işlemleri uygulandıktan sonra aynı koşullar altında K714 tozları ile soğuk sprey kaplama yapılmıştır. Farklı yüzey işlemi olarak parlatma, çelik ve cam bilye ile kumlama ve zımparalama işlemleri seçilmiş ve kaplama sonrası numuneler morfolojik ve mekanik özellik bakımından birbirleriyle karşılaştırılmıştır. 1566 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Malzeme ve Metot - Materials and Methods 7075 alüminyum alaşımları altlık malzeme olarak kullanılmak üzere 10x3cm2 boyutlarında 5 mm kalınlıkta plakalar şeklinde kesilerek hazırlanmıştır. Alaşım yüzeylerine cam bilye püskürtme, çelik bilye ile kumlama, zımparalama ve parlatma işlemleri uygulanmış ve hazırlanan yüzeyler aynı şartlar altında kaplanmıştır. Kaplama yöntemi olarak soğuk sprey yöntemi tercih edilmiş ve kaplama işlemleri 500 ºC sıcaklıkta gerçekleştirilmiştir. Kaplama cihazı olarak DYMET 423 düşük basınçlı soğuk sprey ekipmanı kullanılmıştır. Kaplama işlemlerinde DYMET K714 kodlu Ni, Zn ve Al2O3 içerikli ticari tozlar kullanılmıştır. Tüm kaplama işlemlerinde toz besleme hızı 9 g/dk olarak belirlenmiştir.Kaplama sonrası numune morfolojileri Nikon marka Clemex Vision PE yazılımlı mikroskop kullanılarak 200X büyütmede incelenmiştir. Kaplama kalınlık ölçümleri yine aynı yazılım ve mikroskop kiti kullanılarak 50X büyütmede enine alınan kesitlerden gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yüzey pürüzlülük ölçümlerinde Mitutoyo Surftest SJ-310 kullanılmıştır. Mikrosertlik testleri numunelerin enine kesitlerinden, altlık, ara yüzeyler ve kaplama tabakası olacak şekilde farklı bölgelerden alınarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Sertlik testlerinde HCK-404SXV Dijital Mikro Vickers sertlik cihazı kullanılmış ve 500 gram yük altında ölçümler gerçekleştirilmiştir.Numunelerin aşınma testleri CSM tribometre ball-on disk aşınma cihazı kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Aşınma testleri için 6mm çapında Al2O3 bilye aşındırıcı eleman olarak tercih edilmiştir. Aşınma mesafesi olarak 200m belirlenmiş ve yük 10N olacak şekilde ayarlanmıştır. Aşınma yarıçapı 3,3 mm olacak şekilde hazneye yerleştirilen numuneler üzerinde bilye 10cm/s hız ile kaydırılmıştır. Bulgular ve Tartışma - Findings and Discussion Kaplama sonrası yapılan pürüzlülük ölçüm sonuçlarına göre, cam bilyelerle kumlanmış, zımparalanmış ve parlatıldıktan sonra kaplanmış numunelerin yüzey pürüzlülük değerleri benzerlik göstermektedir. Bu değerler sırasıyla cam bilye ile kumlanan numune için 5,97 μm, zımparalandıktan sonra kaplanan numune için 5,8 μm ve patlatıldıktan sonra kaplanan numune için ise 6,27 μm olarak ölçülmüştür. Numuneler arasında yüzey pürüzlülüğündeki belirgin farkla öne çıkan numune 6,94 μm pürüzlülük değeri ile kumlandıktan sonra kaplanan numune olmuştur. Kaplama tozları soğuk sprey yöntemi ile püskürtüldüğünde, diğer termal sprey yöntemlerindeki gibi tam ergime sağlanmadan kaplama işlemi gerçekleştirilir. Tozlar süpersonik olarak adlandırılan bir kritik hıza ulaştıktan sonra yüzeye çarptırılır ve bu hızın etkisiyle plastik deformasyona uğrar (Assadi et al., 2016; Vinay et al., 2022). Başlangıçtaki yüzeyin pürüzlü olması kaplama sonrası yüzeyin pürüzlülük oranını etkileyebilir. Fakat soğuk sprey yönteminde atomsal boyutta düzenli bir birleşme söz konusu olmadığı için pürüzsüz ve 1567 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal parlatılmış yüzeylerde dahi pürüzsüz bir kaplama yüzeyi elde etmek mümkün değildir. Daha yüksek hızla çarpan ve daha küresel şekle sahip olan, plastik deformasyonun daha kolay gerçekleşebileceği parçacıklar, kaplama sonrası daha yassı tanecikler olarak yapıda bulunacağından, pürüzlülüğü bir miktar azaltabilir (Gül et al., 2022). Vaz vd. (2023), çalışmalarında ise kumlanmış ve pürüzlendirilmiş yüzeylerde daha heterojen bir büyümeden söz edileceği için pürüzlülüğünde kaplama sonrası artmış olacağını vurgulamışlardır. Artan pürüzlülük ise daha efektif bir kaplama eldesini sağlayabilir Vaz vd., (2023). Kaplama sonrası yüzeylerden alınan mikroskop görüntüleri Şekil 2’de verilmiştir. Görüntüler alınan pürüzlülük ölçümlerini destekler niteliktedir. Şekil 2. Kaplanmış yüzeylerden alınan mikroskop görüntüleri a) cam, b) zımparalanmış, c) parlatılmış d) kumlanmış numune yüzeyleri (200X büyütme) Kaplanmış numunelerin kesitlerinden alınan kaplama kalınlık ölçümleri Şekil 3’te verilmiştir. Alınan ölçümlere göre ortalama kaplama kalınlıkları ortalamaları cam bilye ile kumlanan numune için 67,6 μm, parlatıldıktan sonra kaplanan numune için 72,52 μm ve kumlama sonrası kaplanan numune için 77,5 μm olarak ölçülmüştür. Numuneler arasında yüzey pürüzlülüğündeki belirgin farkla öne çıkan numune ise zımparalandıktan sonra kaplanan numune olmuştur ve kaplama kalınlığı ortalaması 175,9 μm olarak ölçülmüştür. Zımparalanmış numunede kaplama tabakasının altında oksit tabakası olduğu düşünülen ikinci bir tabakaya rastlanmıştır. Bu tabakanın kaplama kalınlığını destekler nitelikte olduğu düşünülmektedir. 1568 VI.

Kaplanmış numune kesitlerinden gerçekleştirilen kaplama kalınlık ölçümleri a) cam, b)zımp, c)parl d)kum numune yüzeyleri (50X büyütme) Kaplanmış numunelerin sertlik ölçümleri Şekil 4’te verilmiştir. Altlık WE43 Mg alaşımının sertliği 150 HV0,5 olarak ölçülmüştür ve tüm numunelerde ortalama bu değerdedir. Arayüzeylerden yapılan ölçümler ile de paralel olacak şekilde en yüksek sertlik zımparalanmış numunede gözlemlenmiş olup kaplama tabakası altında gözlemlenen oksit tabakası olduğu düşünülen tabakanın, ana kaplama yapısının sertliğini artırıcı nitelikte olmasıdır. Tüm kaplanmış numunelerin sertliği altlık malzemenin sertliğinden yüksek olmakla birlikte mikrosertlik ortalamaları cam bilye ile kumlanan numune için 320 HV0,5, parlatıldıktan sonra kaplanan numune için 270 HV0,5, kumlama sonrası kaplanan numune için 284 HV0,5 ve zımparalama sonrası kaplanan numune için 339 HV0,5 olarak ölçülmüştür. Şekil 4. Numunelerin mikrosertlik grafiği Aşınma testleri sonrası aşınma iz genişlik ölçümleri Şekil 5’te verilmiştir. Aşınma iz genişlikleri ortalamaları cam bilye ile kumlanan numune için 1191 μm, zımparalandıktan sonra 1569 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal kaplanan numune için 1328 μm , parlatıldıktan sonra kaplanan numune için 1656 μm ve kumlama sonrası kaplanan numune için 1780 μm olarak ölçülmüştür. Minimum aşınma iz genişliği cam bilye ile kumlandıktan sonra kaplanmış numunede ve zımparalama sonrası kaplanan numunede gözlemlenirken, maksimum iz genişliği kumlandıktan sonra kaplanan numunede gözlemlenmiştir. Şekil 5. Aşınma iz ölçümleri a) cam, b)zımp, c)parl d)kum numune Aşınma sırasında kaydedilen sürtünme katsayısı değerlerinin zamanla değişimini gösteren grafik Şekil 6’da verilmiştir. Sürtünme katsayısı maksimum değere çıkan ve zaman içinde de diğer numunelerden açık ara fark ile yüksekte seyreden numune zımparalandıktan sonra kaplama işlemi uygulanan numune olmuştur. Aşınma iz genişliğinin daha az olması bu durumu desteklemekte olup bu numunede kaplama kalınlığının maksimum değerde elde edilmesinin olumlu bir etkisinden söz edilebilir. Minimum sürtünme katsayısı parlatıldıktan sonra kaplanan numunede elde edilmiştir. Aynı zamanda parlatıldıktan sonra kaplanan numune için, aşınma izi genişliğinin de fazla ölçülmesi ile birlikte değerlendirildiğinde, en düşük aşınma dayanımını sergilediği söylenebilir. 1570 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 6. Sürtünme katsayısı grafiği Şekil 7. Aşınan alan grafikleri a) cam, b)zımp, c)parl d)kum numune yüzeyleri Şekil 7, numunelerin aşınma testleri sonrası aşınma izlerinden alınan profil ölçümlerini göstermektedir. Parlatma ve kumlama işlemleri sonrası numunelerde maksimum aşınma ile hacim kaybı gözlemlenmiştir. Aşınma profillerine göre minimum aşınmanın zımparalanmış numunede olduğu söylenebilir. Hesaplanan hacim kayıpları sırasıyla cam bilye ile kumlanan numune için 0.0264 mm3, zımparalandıktan sonra kaplanan numune için 0.0241 mm3, parlatıldıktan sonra kaplanan numune için 0.0371 mm3 ve kumlama sonrası kaplanan numune için 0.0446 mm3 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Yüzey pürüzlülüğünün maksimum olduğu çelik bilye 1571 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ile kumlanmış numune grubunda fazla pürüzlülüğün abraziv aşınmayı tetiklemesi nedeni ile (Liang et al., 2018) daha büyük parçaların koparak kaplama tabakasından ayrıldığı düşünülmektedir. Bu durum aşınma sonrası hacim kayıplarının daha büyük boyutta olmasına neden olmuş ve kumlanmış ve parlatılmış numunede minimum aşınma dayanımı gözlemlenmesine neden olmuştur. Sonuçlar ve Öneriler - Conclusion and Recommendations 7075 alüminyum alaşım plaka numuneler, DYMET K714 kodlu Ni, Zn ve Al2O3 içerikli ticari tozlar kullanılarak soğuk sprey yöntemi ile başarılı bir şekilde kaplanmıştır. Cam bilye ile kumlama, zımparalama, çelik bilye ile kumlama ve parlatma yüzey işlemleri sonrası aynı parametreler kullanılarak aynı ortam koşullarında kaplamalar gerçekleştirilmiş ve bu kaplamaların morfolojik özellikleri ve aşınma dayanımları arasındaki farklılıklar incelenmiştir. Gerçekleştirilen çalışma sonucunda en yüksek yüzey pürüzlülüğü çelik bilye ile kumlama sonrası kaplanan numunede gözlemlenmiştir. Tüm yüzeylerde homojen bir kaplama tabakası elde edilebilmiş olup zımparalama sonrası kaplanan numunede diğer numune gruplarına göre yaklaşık 2,5 kat kadar daha kalın bir kaplama tabakası elde edilebilmiştir. Yapılan tüm analizler sonrasında sertlik ve aşınma dayanımı en yüksek olan numune zımparaladıktan sonra kaplanan numune olmuştur. 1572 VI.

Bununla birlikte, bazı uygulamalar alüminyum alaşımlarının aşınma direncinin iyileştirilmesini gerektirmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, başlangıç yüzey koşullarının 2024 alüminyum alaşımı üzerindeki soğuk püskürtmeli kaplamaların aşınma direnci üzerindeki etkisini araştırmaktır. Farklı yüzey işlemleri uygulanmış (zımparalanmış, parlatılmış ve kumlanmış) parçaların üzerine ticari K-20-11 tozları 500 °C de püskürtülerek kaplanmıştır. Kaplamaların uygulanmasında N2 gazı kullanılmış ve kaplama öncesi yüzey işlemleri farklılık gösteren tüm bu numuneler aynı şartlar altında kaplanmıştır. Yüzey pürüzlülükleri kaplama öncesi ve sonrası olacak şekilde yüzey profilmetresi kullanılarak incelenmiştir. Kaplama kalınlıkları kesitlerden alınan mikroskop görüntüleri üzerinden ölçülmüş ve yüzey pürüzlülüğünün kaplama kalınlığına etkisi tartışılmıştır. Numunelere kuru kayma koşullarında ball-on disk aşınma testi uygulanmış ve aşınma sonrası tüm numunelerin aşınma profilleri oluşturulmuştur. Aşınma profilleri kullanılarak hacim kayıpları hesaplanmış ve sürtünme katsayısı değişiklikleri ve aşınma profilleri birlikte tartışılmıştır. Numunelerin kaplama kalınlıkları parlatılmış, zımparalanmış ve kumlanmış numunelerde sırasıyla ortalama 87 µm, 228 µm ve 147 µm olarak ölçülmüştür. Aşınma direnci en yüksek olan numune kumlama işlemi sonrası kaplanan numune olmuştur. Sonuç olarak soğuk sprey kaplama uygulaması ile Al, Zn ve Al2O3 içerikli K-2011 ticari kodlu kaplama uygulaması ile 2024 alüminyum alaşımlarının kuru kayma koşullarındaki aşınma direnci geliştirilmiştir. Kumlama sonrası kaplanmış numunelerde parlatılmış ve sonrasında kaplanmış numuneler ile karşılaştırma yapıldığında gözlemlenen yaklaşık %33’lük bir aşınma dayanımı artışı mevcuttur.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal EFFECTS OF SURFACE TREATMENTS PRIOR TO COLD SPRAY ON THE WEAR RESISTANCE OF 2024 ALLOYS Abstract Aluminum alloys are widely used in various industries due to their lightweight properties. However, certain applications require the improvement of the wear resistance of aluminum alloys. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of initial surface conditions on the wear resistance of cold-sprayed coatings on 2024 aluminum alloy. Parts with different surface treatments (sanded, polished, and shot-blasted) were coated with commercial K-20-11 powders at 500 °C using cold spraying. Nitrogen gas was used in the coating process, and all these samples with varying pre-coating surface treatments were coated under the same conditions. Surface roughness was examined using a surface profilometer before and after coating. Coating thicknesses were measured from microscope images of cross-sections, and the impact of surface roughness on coating thickness was discussed. Dry sliding ball-on-disk wear tests were conducted on the samples, and wear profiles of all samples were generated after the wear tests. Volume losses were calculated using the wear profiles, and changes in friction coefficients and wear profiles were discussed together. Coating thicknesses of the samples were measured as 87 µm, 228 µm, and 147 µm for polished, sanded, and shot-blasted samples, respectively. The sample with the highest wear resistance was the one coated after shot blasting. In conclusion, cold spray coating application with K-2011 commercial code, containing Al, Zn, and Al2O3, improved the wear resistance of 2024 aluminum alloys under dry sliding conditions. When compared to polished and subsequently coated samples, a significant increase of approximately 33% in wear resistance was observed in the samples coated after shot blasting.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş - Introduction Alüminyum alaşımlarının sahip olduğu düşük yoğunluk, yüksek şekillendirilebilme kolaylığı, yüksek korozyon dayanımı, fiziksel ve mekanik özelliklerinin iyileştirilebilmesi özellikleri sayesinde endüstride yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır (İpekoğlu, 2011). Tüm alüminyum alaşımları arasında Al/Cu (2XXX-serisi) alaşımları, uçak endüstrisinde sıklıkla gövde ve kapı kaplamaları, sırt yüzgeçleri ve pervaneler olarak kullanılan yüksek dayanımlı alaşımlardır. Ayrıca, alüminyum alaşımları, kuru sürtünme koşulları altında büyük sürtünme katsayılarına ve zayıf aşınma direncine yol açan adheziv aşınmaya eğilimlidir (Mehta et al., 2004). Hafiflik avantajı ve yüksek spesifik mukavemet özelliklerine karşın, gerçek koşullar altında, 2XXX serisi alüminyum alaşımlarının korozyon ve aşınma direnci düşük olarak nitelendirilmektedir (Long et al., 2017). Çeşitli yüzey işlemleri, alüminyum alaşımlarının yüzey özelliklerini iyileştirmenin etkili bir yoludur. Anotlama (Abdel-Gawad et al., 2019), fiziksel buhar biriktirme (PVD) (Bashir et al., 2017; Lu et al., 2018), elektrolitik biriktirme (Yin et al., 2016), sol-jel biriktirme (Yu et al., 2019), lazer kaplama (Ravnikar et al., 2013) ve plazma nitrürleme (da Silva Savonov et al., 2019) gibi teknikler kullanılarak Al alaşımları üzerinde koruyucu kaplamalar hazırlanmıştır.ğ Ancak bu yöntemlerin yüksek maliyet, karmaşık süreç, zayıf kontrol edilebilirlik ve uygulama zorluğu gibi çeşitli eksiklikleri vardır. Ayrıca çoğunda yüksek sıcaklıklar gerekir ve bu sıcaklıkların çoğu yapıda termal gerilmelere neden olmakta ve dikey ve yatay çatlak oluşumları nedeniyle kaplama-altlık ara-yüzeyini ve hatta kaplamanın kendisini negatif etkilemektedir.Soğuk sprey prosesi özellikle metalik toz parçacıkların çok yüksek hızla (süpersonik) ivmelendirilerek yüzeye çarpmaları sonucunda parçacıkların deformasyon kabiliyetine bağlı olarak yüzeyde birikmesine olanak sağlayan yeni bir kaplama prosesidir. Bu yüksek ivmelenme proses gazlarının (hava, azot, helyum ve karışım kombinasyonu) önce ısıtılması ve basınç altında sıkıştırılmasını takiben nozülden genleşerek çıkışı ile sağlanmaktadır (da Silva et al., 2017). Eklemeli imalat proseslerinden biri olarak da kabul edilen bu yöntem, diğer termal sprey kaplama yöntemlerine göre daha düşük sıcaklıklarda gerçekleştiği için zararlı termal etkilerin azaltılmasını sağlar. Kaplama tabakasını oluşturacak parçacıklar ve altlık malzeme arası arayüzlerdeki şiddetli plastik deformasyona atfedilen metalurjik bağlanma ve mekanik kilitleme, altlık üzerinde çökelme mekanizmaları ile gerçekleşir (Kim et al., 2023). Bu yöntemde diğer püskürtme yöntemlerinden farklı olarak yüksek kinetik enerji ve düşük termal enerji kullanılır. Böylece, kaplamalar daha kalın, termal gerilimler daha az olduğu için çatlaksız ve minimum oksidasyonla elde edilebilir. Püskürtme işlemi sırasında kullanılan sıcaklıklar, termal bozulmanın yanı sıra hammadde malzemesinin 1576 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal oksidasyonunu da önler; Böylece kaplamalar pratik olarak oksitsizdir ve yeni fazların oluşumuna yol açabilecek kimyasal reaksiyonlar oluşmaz (da Silva et al., 2017; Kim et al., 2023). Şekil 1’de soğuk sprey prosesi şematik olarak gösterilmiştir. Şekil 1. Soğuk Sprey Prosesi (da Silva et al., 2017) Soğuk sprey prosesinde kullanılan kaplama malzemeleri metal ve alaşımları, sermetler, kompozitler ve polimer esaslı malzemelerdir. Sistem üreticileri tarafından endüstriyel açıdan yaygın olarak kullanılan malzemeler: WC-Co, CrC-NiCr, Al, Cu, Al2O3, SiO2, SiC, Ni, Cr, Fe,B, C, Ti, Cr2O3, Zn, B2O, TiO2, WC, ZnB2, (Ti+Ni), (C, Co, Fe, W), (C, Cr, Ni), (Al, Ni), (Al,Hf, Fe, Mg, Si, Ti, Y, Zr), epoksi reçineler, poliüretan ve bir çok termoplastik malzemeler olup altlık malzeme olarak metal ve alaşımlar,seramikler, cam, kağıt ve polimerler kullanılabilmektedir (Üstel and Altuncu, 2017)Yapılan çalışmada 2024 alüminyum alaşımları yüzeylerine farklı yüzey işlemleri uygulandıktan sonra aynı şartlar altında Al, Zn ve Al 2O3 karışım tozları ile soğuk sprey kaplama işlemi uygulanmıştır. Yüzey işlemlerinin yüzey pürüzlülüğüne, kaplama kalınlıklarına ve numunelerin aşınma dayanımlarına etkileri incelenmiştir. Malzeme ve Metot - Materials and Methods Altlık numune olarak kimyasal bileşimi Tablo 1’de verilen 2024 alüminyum alaşımları kullanılmıştır. Alaşımlar 10x30 mm2 yüzey alanı ve 4 mm kalınlıkta numunelere kesildikten sonra üç farklı gruba ayrılmıştır. Yüzeyleri parlatma, zımparalama ve kumlama işlemleri her bir gruba sırasıyla uygulanmıştır. Parlatma işlemi uygulanan grup numuneleri 1200 gride kadar zımparalanmış ve 3 µm’ye kadar parlatılmıştır. Zımparalama işlemi uygulanan grup 120 gride kadar zımparalanmıştır. Tüm zımpara izlerinin paralel ve tek yönde olması sağlanmıştır. Kumlama işlemi uygulanan numuneler 0,5 MPa basınç ile S330 ticari kodlu çelik kumlama bilyeleri kullanılarak kumlanmıştır. En son tüm numuneler ultrasonik temizleyici kullanılarak etanol ile 20 dakika temizlenmiştir. 1577 VI.

Tüm numunelerin kaplanmasında içeriği ağ.%33- 37 Al, ağ.%38-42 Zn, ağ.%23-27Al2O3 olan K-20-11 ticari kodlu karışım tozlar kullanılmıştır. Sıcaklık 500 °C olarak ayarlanmış ve karışım toz besleme hızı dakikada 6g seçilmiştir. Kaplanmış numune yüzey ve kesitleri stereo mikroskopta incelenmiştir. Dikey kesitleri incelenen numunelerin kaplama kalınlıkları ölçülmüştür. Stereo mikroskop incelemelerinde Clemex yazılımlı Nikon optik mikroskop kullanılmıştır. Numunelerin kaplama öncesi ve sonrası yüzey pürüzlülükleri Mitutoyo Surftest SJ-310 kullanarak incelenmiştir. Numunelerin aşınma testleri CSM tribometre ball-on disk aşınma cihazı kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Aşındırıcı eleman olarak 6mm çapında Al2O3 bilyeler kullanılmıştır. Yük 2N ve mesafe 50 m olacak şekilde belirlenmiş ve bilye kayma hızı 10cm/s olarak ayarlanmıştır. İz çapı 5mm’dir. Aşınma testleri sonrası oluşan aşınma iz profilleri stereo mikroskop ve pürüzlülük ölçüm cihazı ile incelenmiştir. Hacim kayıpları hesaplamaları için aşınma yolu dik kesilecek şekilde ölçüm yapılmış ve hesaplanmıştır. Bulgular ve Tartışma - Findings and Discussion Kaplama işlemi sonrası numunelerin yüzey morfolojileri Şekil 2’deki gibidir. Tüm numune yüzeyleri homojen bir şekilde kaplanmış olup kumlama işlemi sonrasında kaplanan c numunesinde yükselti farkları nedeni ile oluşan bir kontrast farkı mevcuttur. Bu durum kaplama tabakasının daha pürüzlü elde edildiğinin bir göstergesi olarak düşünülebilir. Şekil 2. a)Parlatma b)Zımparalama c)Kumlama işlemleri sonrası kaplanan numunelerin yüzeyi Kaplama öncesi ve sonrası yüzey pürüzlülük ölçüm grafikleri Şekil 3’te verilmiş olup stereo mikroskop ile elde edilen bulguları destekler niteliktedir. Beklenen şekilde en düşük yüzey pürüzlülüğü parlatılmış numunede elde edilmiştir. En yüksek yüzey pürüzlülüğü ise kumlanmış 1578 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal numunededir. Kaplama işlemi sonrası yüzey pürüzlülükleri kaplama öncesine paralellik göstermektedir. Şekil 3. Yüzey pürüzlülüğü grafiği Numunelerin dikey kesitleri ve kaplama kalınlık ölçümleri Şekil 4’te verilmiştir. Kaplama kalınlıkları ortalaması grafiği ise Şekil 5’tedir. Parlatılmış numune arayüzeyi zımparalanmış ve kumlanmış numune ara yüzeylerine göre daha keskindir. Net bir geçiş bölgesi görülmemiştir. Yüzeyin parlatılmış olması sebebi ile yüzeyin kaplama parçacıklarına tutulumu diğer numunelere kıyasla daha az olmuş ve bu durum en düşük kaplama kalınlığının parlatılmış numunede gözlemlenmesine neden olmuştur. Yüzey pürüzlülüğünün en çok gözlemlendiği kumlama sonrası kaplanan numunelerde kalınlığı ortalama 33,5 µm olarak ölçülen bir geçiş bölgesi gözlemlenmiştir. Zımparalanmış ve kumlanmış numunelerin her ikisinde de altlık ve kaplama tabakası arasında keskin bir geçiş olmadığı ve bir geçiş bölgesi mevcut olduğu görülebilir. Bu durum metalurjik bağın daha kuvvetli olduğunun bir göstergesidir (Winnicki et al., 2015). Ayrıca uygulanan yüzey işlemleri kaplamaların yüzeye tutunabilirliğini kolaylaştırmış ve birikme verimliliğini de arttırarak kaplama kalınlığının parlatılmış numuneye göre daha fazla olmasını sağlamıştır. Parlatılmış numunedeki ortalama kaplama kalınlığı 83,9 µm olarak ölçülürken, zımparalanmış numune için bu değer 227,3 µm ve kumlanmış numune için 174,8 µm olarak ölçülmüştür. 1579 VI.

Kaplama kalınlıkları grafiği Aşınma sonrası numunelerin aşınma izleri profilometre ile ölçülmüş ve her bir yüzey işlemine ait numuneden üç farklı ölçüm alınarak aşınma izi profilleri çizilmiştir. Aşınma izi profil grafikleri Şekil 6’da verilmiştir. Aşınma iz derinliğinin en fazla gözlemlendiği profil parlatılmış ve kaplanmış numune yüzeyleri olmuştur. Aşınma iz genişlikleri de parlatılmış ve kaplanmış numunelerde daha fazla gözlemlenmiştir. Zımparalama ve kumlama yüzey işlemleri sonrası kaplanan numunelerde iz derinlik ve genişlikleri daha az gözlemlenmiştir. 1580 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 6. Aşınma profilleri Hacim kaybı hesaplamaları yapılmış ve Şekil 7’deki grafikte tüm numuneler için bir karşılaştırma yapılmıştır. Kaplama kalınlıklarının düşük olduğu gözlemlenen ve metalurjik bağın daha zayıf kurulduğu düşünülen parlatma sonrası kaplanmış numunelerde maksimum hacim kaybı gözlemlenmiştir. Her ne kadar kumlanmış numunelerin hacim kaybı hesaplamaları daha geniş bir aralıkta seyretse de, en az hacim kaybı ortalaması kumlanmış numunede ve sonrasında zımparalanmış numunede gözlemlenmiştir. Uygulanan yüzey işlemleri kaplamaların daha etkili olmasını sağlamış ve aşınma dayanımını arttırmıştır. Tek yönde yönlenmiş zımpara izlerinin aşınma dayanımına etkisine göre kumlama etkisi daha yüksek olmuş ve kumlama işlemi aşınmaya karşı daha dayanıklı kaplamaların elde edilmesini sağlamıştır. 1581 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 7. Hacim kaybı grafiği Aşınma sırasında ölçülen sürtünme katsayıları grafiği Şekil 8’de verilmiştir. Grafik incelendiğinde tüm aşınma sonuçları ile de uyumlu olacak şekilde parlatılmış ve kaplanmış numune aşınmaya karşı yeterli direnci gösterememiş ve diğer yüzey işlemlerine göre daha düşük sürtünme katsayısı eldesine neden olmuştur. Maksimum sürtünme katsayısı kumlama sonrasında kaplanmış numunede gözlemlenmiştir ve bu durumda maksimum dayanımı kumlanmış numunenin sergilediği söylenebilir. Şekil 8. Sürtünme katsayıları değişimi Sonuçlar ve Öneriler - Conclusion and Recommendations Gerçekleştirilen çalışma kapsamında zımparalama, parlatma ve kumlama yüzey işlemleri uygulanan 2024 Al alaşım numuneler üzerine Al, Zn ve Al2O3 içeren ticari K-20-11 karışım tozu 500 °C de soğuk sprey yöntemi kullanılarak kaplanmıştır. Kaplamaların yüzey pürüzlülüğü, kalınlığı ve aşınma direnci incelenmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda kumlama ve zımparalama sonrası kaplanan numunelerde sırasıyla 3 ve 4 kata kadar daha fazla kaplama kalınlığı elde edilmiş ve bu durum uygulanan yüzey işlemlerinin kaplamaların yüzeye tutunabilirliğini arttırması ile açıklanmıştır. Tüm numuneler içinde hem kaplama öncesi hem de kaplama sonrası maksimum yüzey pürüzlülüğü kumlanmış numunelerde elde edilmiştir. 1582 VI.

Sürtünme katsayısı değişimi de bunu desteklemektedir ve minimum sürtünme katsayısı parlatma sonrası kaplanan numunede gözlemlenirken maksimum sürtünme katsayısı kumlama işlemi sonrası kaplanan numunede gözlemlenmiştir. Tüm sonuçlar değerlendirildiğinde aşınma dayanımı en yüksek olan numune kumlandıktan sonra kaplanan numune olmuştur. 1583 VI.

In order to influence gene expression, estrogens attach to specialized receptors called estrogen receptors (ERs), which then trigger transcriptional processes and signaling events. These effects could be mediated by processes other than direct binding to DNA, such as the direct binding of estrogen receptor complexes to certain regions in gene promoters. In humans, estrogen receptors control a wide range of intricate physiological functions. Numerous conditions, such as those pertaining to reproduction, abnormalities of the bones, lung cancer, cardiovascular disease, gastrointestinal problems, urogenital tract diseases, neurological disorders, and cutaneous melanoma, can be brought on by aberrant ER signaling. The three most well-known ERs are ER alpha, ER beta, and novel G-protein coupled estrogen receptor 1. Differential expression of estrogen receptors in different cell lines, species differences, varied experimental methods, and indirect effects of estrogens can all account for the findings of experimental investigations. Estrogens have been linked to an increased risk of disease overall, elevated concerns around environmental estrogen exposure, and the pathophysiology of a number of malignancies. An overview of estrogen and its receptors is given in this text.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction One of the most significant female sex hormones is estrogen, a fat-soluble steroid hormone (Pepermans et al, 2021). It also affects a wide range of other physiological systems, such as the immunological, cardiovascular, and metabolic systems. It performs numerous vital physiological roles and is primarily produced by the adrenal cortex, testes, and ovaries. Since it has been established that estrogens and estrogen receptors contribute to the development and spread of several tumor types, including breast, ovarian, kidney, adrenal, prostate, testicular, lung, and colon cancers, interest in estrogens and estrogen receptors has grown (Aitken et al. 2004). In both sexes, the effects of estrogens and associated estrogenic compounds are intricate and varied.It is widely known to have a key part in the development of estrogen receptorexpressing breast cancers, but it also plays a significant role in a variety of other malignancies. It directly impacts tumor cells as well as the activity of other cells, including fibroblasts, in the tumor microenvironment. Numerous synthetic, natural, and medicinal compounds target the pathways that generate and react to estrogen (Arterburn and Prossnitz, 2024). In around 80% of cases of breast cancer, estrogen is also a major factor since it stimulates the growth of tumors, which is mostly estrogen-dependent (McDonnell et al, 2021; Haines et al, 2021). According to Soares et al. (2023), estrogens are also crucial in the occurrence and progression of several cancers, including ovarian, endometrial, and breast cancer. Estrogens and ERs Estrogen receptor α (ER-α) and estrogen receptor β (ER-β) are the two types of receptors that estrogens work on to carry out their physiological functions. Two distinct genes on separate chromosomes encode the proteins ER-α and ER-β (Ghodbane et al, 2013). The most prevalent estrogen receptor in the skin, ER-β is also present in the brain, colon, prostate, and other wellknown estrogen-sensitive tissues such the uterus and mammary glands (Aitken et al, 2004). The antiproliferative effects of ER-β activation seem to be counterbalanced by ER-α's opposite action. According to Caruntu et al. (2016), recent research has determined that the balance between ER-α and ER-β expression is the primary determinant of estrogen signaling. It is well recognized that certain malignancies, like breast cancer, are estrogen-dependent. Hormones including progesterone and estrogen are known to be crucial in the development of this cancer (Hilton et al, 2018). Melatonin has been shown to suppress breast cancer cell growth in vivo as well as in vitro (Laborda et al., 2023). Eventually, it was discovered that melatonin caused cancer cells to undergo programmed cell death, or apoptosis, and decreased the growth of breast cancer cells (Bushra et al, 2011). Melatonin is believed to have this impact because it can lower 1587 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal inflammation and oxidative stress, two things that are known to have a role in the development of cancer. A hormone with many oncostatin actions, melatonin is particularly useful in treating breast cancer (Gutic et al., 2023). By scavenging free radicals, it demonstrates antioxidant qualities and shields cells from oxidative damage caused by carcinogen-mediated deoxyribonucleic acid alterations. This delays the beginning of malignant transformation (Hilton et al, 2017). Melanoma incidence rates in females are comparable to those of breast cancer, indicating a potential involvement for female sex hormones in the development of melanoma in females (Ramadan et al, 2002). Simultaneously, a second study revealed that patients with melanoma were also at risk for breast cancer, and that women who had previously been diagnosed with breast cancer were more likely to develop melanoma (Hong et al, 2005). The association between ERs and melanoma is confirmed by the expression of ER-βs in several melanoma cell lines investigated (BLM, WM115, A375, WM1552) (Hamada et al., 2011). Estrogen Receptor Signaling Mechanisms Estrogen functions as a steroid hormone and has the ability to cross the plasma membrane to directly affect DNA sequences through interaction with intracellular ERα and ERβ. On the other hand, estrogen can work with GPER1, ERα, and ERβ to initiate intracellular signaling cascades. Because of differences in the cellular and molecular mechanisms that control gene expression, estrogen-mediated signaling events can be categorized as either genomic or non-genomic. Direct or indirect DNA binding can occur between estrogen-receptor complexes (Fuentes & Silveyla, 2019). Examples of genomic implications include the translocation of estrogenreceptor complexes into the cell nucleus and direct interaction with chromatin at specific DNA sequences known as estrogen response elements (EREs). More than one-third of human genes controlled by estrogen receptors have been reported to lack ERE sequence elements, despite the fact that EREs have been found in a variety of gene promoters and regulatory regions (O'Lone, Frith, Karlsson, & Hansen, 2004). Conversely, non-genomic impacts entail the indirect control of gene expression via a variety of intracellular signaling pathways. Estrogens and Their Effects on Carcinogenesis Over the world, 18.1 million new instances of cancer have been found; according to reports, breast cancer is the most common form to be identified, with more cases than colon cancer (2.3 million cases, 11.7%) (Hall and Filardo, 2023). The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) of the World Health Organization recorded 685,000 deaths from breast cancer in 2020 and projects that by 2040, there would be 1 million fatalities and 3 million new cases (Arnold et al., 2022). It is noteworthy that the number of instances of breast cancer is rising 1588 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal quickly in transitioning nations, despite the fact that the disease's death rate is still quite high (Abancens et al, 2020). The sharp rise in colon cancer, which has been linked to a significant hereditary component and a bias towards men, is equally worrisome (White et al, 2018). Although the exact causes of colon cancer in young adults are unknown, environmental factors such as inflammation, nutrition, and microbiome have been proposed (Sinicrope, 2022). The fact that this trend is in line with rising human exposure to environmental estrogens and rising rates of obesity in young people is equally worrisome (Newbold et al, 2009). Metabolic syndrome is linked to increased exposure to environmental estrogens (Agnoli et al, 2010; Zheng et al, 2023). A group of illnesses known as metabolic syndrome are known to have a role in the development of cancer, particularly malignancies of the breast and colon (Esposito et al., 2012; Chan et al., 2014). Estrogens have been linked to the pathogenesis of several cancers (Sun et al, 2018; Schouten et al, 2022), including colon and kidney cancer (Mori et al, 2021). They are effective against female reproductive cancer (Miyamoto and Shiozawa, 2019; Johansson et al., 2022), as well as lung (Chakraborty et al., 2010; Hsu et al., 2017), liver (Shi et al., 2014; Sukocheva, 2018; Carruba, 2021). Understanding the receptor-based processes by which endogenous and environmental estrogens promote their biochemical and biological effects is fundamentally required, regardless of the specific nature of the model underlying estrogeninduced carcinogenesis (Hall and Filardo, 2023). Effects of Estrogen-Induced Carcinogenesis through Exposure to Environmental Estrogens Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are substances found in our environment that mimic estrogen. These compounds are referred to as xenoestrogens. Foods, plastics, food containers, cosmetics, and skin care items are common sources of xenoestrogens (Lóránd et al, 2010). Dietary phytoestrogens like genistein and daidzein, artificial environmental contaminants like bisphenol A, and 4-hydroxytamoxifen are a few specific instances of xenoestrogens (Hall and Filardo, 2023). Although EDCs have long been linked to carcinogenesis, there is disagreement regarding how much of a role they play in cancer (Morgan et al, 2017; Gonzalez et al, 2019). Bisphenols are widely utilized in the manufacturing of dental sealants, thermal invoice sheets, polycarbonate plastics, and plasticized linings in packaged foods (Porras et al, 2014; Russo et al, 2017). Research has demonstrated that BPA seeps into the environment and is found in over 95% of the population, with newborns and children having the greatest quantities found (Calafat et al, 2005; Lehmler et al, 2018). According to experimental data from a number of lab investigations, BPA has a "provocative effect" on the development of breast cancer (Seachrist 1589 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal et al, 2016; Wang et al, 2017). Toxicologists' mechanistic hypotheses for monotonicity include the impact of high hormone concentrations on desensitized, weakened, or inactivated receptors. Conclusion Estrogens are important for both health and illness. There are sex hormones everywhere. Both sexes exhibit a balance of male and female hormones. It seems that estrogens have a significant impact on the growth and metastasis of many neoplasms. Many tumors contain estrogens, which are produced locally. The role of estrogen receptors in oncogenesis is not negligible. Hormones, receptors, and enzymes interact intricately in the complex process of estrogen activity; it is neither simple nor unidirectional. Numerous signaling channels are activated. Not just malignant tumors known to be hormone-dependent, such lung cancer, but also many other malignant tumors that are oncogenesis- and progression-related are influenced by sex hormones. The most often prescribed and successful cancer treatment is endocrine therapy. Additional reasons for the development of GPER-targeted cancer therapies include the rise in cancer cases worldwide, the known carcinogenic effect of environmental estrogens, their abundance in economically developed countries, and the significant role that GPER plays in metabolic syndrome, a health condition that promotes cancer. With great and exciting potential to offer a more comprehensive approach to endocrine therapy for breast cancer and other solid malignancies, GPER is still a "drug-free" therapeutic target in this field. Positive outcomes from these clinical trials should supplement current antiestrogen therapy techniques and maybe broaden our understanding of the patients who may benefit from it. 1590 VI.

Bu amaçla, Kamu Kurumları tarafından ihaleye çıkılmış ve sonuç ilanı yayınlanmış 96 adet okul binasına ait projeler Elektronik Kamu Alımları Platformu (EKAP)’tan sağlanmıştır. Bu projeler 81 adet eğitim, 15 adet test verisi olacak şekilde ayrılmıştır. Projeler üzerinden eğitim yapılarının inşaat maliyeti çıktı vektörlerini etkileyebilecek; “Derslik Sayısı, Yapım Süresi, Toplam Kat Sayısı, Kat Yüksekliği, Bina Yüksekliği, Bina Yükseklik Sınıfı (BYS), Bodrum Yüksekliği, Deprem Tasarım Sınıfı (DTS), Zemin Sınıfı, Zemin Emniyet Gerilmesi, Yatak Katsayısı, Beton Sınıfı, Asansör Sayısı, Islak Alan, Radye Temel Yüksekliği, Kat Alanı, Bodrum Alanı, Toplam Alan” parametreleri belirlenerek modelleme ve analizlerde kullanılmıştır. Analizler “SPSS Statistics 26” yazılımı ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu parametreler kullanılarak Regresyon Analizleri (RA) yapılmış ve eğitim yapılarının maliyetlerini tahmin etmek için denklemler geliştirilmiştir. Geliştirilen modellerle Yaklaşık Maliyetleri ve Sözleşme Bedelleri tahmin edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Oluşturulan denklemlerle tüm parametrelerin kullanıldığı model Yaklaşık Maliyet Bedeli için determinasyon katsayısı R²=0.900, Sözleşme Bedeli için ise R²=0.927 ile en iyi ilişki düzeyine sahip model olmuştur. Modelin kullanılması ile elde edilen yaklaşık maliyet tahminleri ve gerçek maliyetler arasında %17,5 düzeyinde hata oranı saptanmıştır. Tahmin edilen sözleşme bedelleri ile gerçek sözleşme bedelleri arasında ise %18,2 hata olduğu belirlenmiştir. Tahmin edilen sonuçlar ile gerçek sonuçlar arasındaki tutarlılığı kontrol etmek amacıyla Durbin-Watson kriteri kullanılmıştır. Sonuç olarak, farklı tip ve katsayılarına sahip okul yapılarının yaklaşık maliyetlerini ve sözleşme bedellerini %20’den düşük hata oranları ile tahmin edebilen bir yaklaşım oluşturulmuştur. Gerek kamu kuruluşları gerekse taahhütçü yapım firmaları bu modellemelerden istifade ederek zamansal tasarrufler sağlayarak gerçekçi maliyet tahminlerinde bulunabileceklerdir. Benzer çalışmaların veri adetleri arttırılarak yapılması, daha sonraki modellemelerde hata oranı minimizasyonu için bir çözüm olabilir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal A MODEL PROPOSAL FOR ESTIMATE THE APPROXIMATE COSTS AND CONTRACT FEES OF PUBLIC EDUCATION BUILDINGS (SCHOOL BUILDINGS) Abstract In this study, a method is proposed for the preliminary estimation of school building costs. For this purpose, the projects of 96 school buildings, which were put out to tender by public institutions and the result announcement was published, were provided from the Electronic Public Procurement Platform (EKAP). These projects are divided into 81 training data and 15 test data. The construction cost of educational buildings through projects may affect the output vectors; “Number of Classrooms, Construction Duration, Total Number of Floors, Floor Height, Building Height, Building Height Class (BYS), Basement Height, Earthquake Design Class (DTS), Floor Class, Ground Safety Stress, Bed Coefficient, Concrete Class, Number of Elevators, "Wet Area, Raft Foundation Height, Floor Area, Basement Area, Total Area" parameters were determined and used in modeling and analysis. Analyzes were carried out with “SPSS Statistics 26” software. Using these parameters, Regression Analyzes (RA) were performed and equations were developed to estimate the costs of educational structures. Approximate Costs and Contract Prices were tried to be estimated with the developed models. The model in which all parameters were used with the created equations was the model with the best correlation level, with the determination coefficient R²=0.900 for the Approximate Cost Price and R²=0.927 for the Contract Price. An error rate of 17.5% was found between the approximate cost estimates obtained using the model and the actual costs. It was determined that there was an 18.2% error between the estimated contract prices and the actual contract prices. The Durbin-Watson criterion was used to check the consistency between predicted results and actual results. As a result, an approach that can estimate the approximate costs and contract prices of school buildings of different types and coefficients with error rates lower than 20% has been created. Both public institutions and contracting construction companies will be able to make realistic cost estimates by benefiting from these modeling, providing time savings. Conducting similar studies by increasing the number of data may be a solution to minimize the error rate in subsequent modeling.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Maliyet, bir ürünün ortaya çıkması için yapılan harcamaların tümü olarak ifade edilmektedir. Yapı maliyeti ise, yapı ihtiyacının oluşmasından itibaren başlayan, yapımın inşa sürecindeki harcamaların toplamı olarak değerlendirilmektedir (Akınbingöl ve Gültekin, 2005).Maliyet tahminindeki en önemli amaç, kıt kaynakları en etkin şekilde kullanarak, değerlendirerek istenilen kalitede hizmet ya da ürünün sağlanması için gereken maliyeti belirleyebilmektir. Maksimum üretimin elde edilmesi ve projenin öngörülen kalitede tamamlanabilmesi için oluşacak harcamaların önceden doğru tahmin edilmesi ve aynı zamanda belirlenen maliyet limitleri içerisinde etkin bir maliyet kontrol sistemi ile denetlenmesi gereklidir (Kuruoğlu, Yönez, Topkaya ve Çelik, 2012). Yatırım kaynaklarının kısıtlı olduğu düşünüldüğünde, maliyet hesabının çok titiz çalışmalarla belirlenmesi, planlanması ve kontrol edilmesi gerekmektedir. Maliyet hesabının eksik ya da fazla tahmin edilmesi, bir inşaat projesinin uygulamasının maliyet açısından başarısız olmasına yol açabilir (Uğur,2007).İhale, birden çok istekli arasından bir hizmetin veya bir malın en uygun istekliye bırakma işlemidir. İşi oluşturan kalemlerin piyasa fiyatının tam olarak bilinmediği veya belirsiz olduğu durumlar için ihale, fiyat oluşturma sürecinde önemli bir rol oynamaktadır (Emek, 2002). Kamu ihalesi, devletin idari kurumlarının taleplerini karşılamak ve halkın ihtiyacını gidermek için mal, hizmet ve yapım işlerinin satın alınmasıdır. Bu ihaleler, ülkelerin ekonomilerini yakından ilgilendirdiği için ülkelerin geleceğinde önemli bir yer kaplamaktadır (Kömürcü, 2006). Türkiye’de, kamu hukukuna tâbi olan veya kamunun denetimi altında bulunan veya kamu kaynağı kullanan kamu kurum ve kuruluşlarının yapacakları ihaleler de uygulanacak esas ve usulleri belirlemek amacıyla 2002 yılında 4734 sayılı Kamu İhale Kanunu yürürlüğe girmiştir (www.ihale.gov.tr). 2.YAPI MALİYETİ HESAPLAMA YÖNTEMLERİ Yapının inşa sürecindeki her aşamada maliyet tahmini için kullanılan maliyet modelleri, kullanım amaçları doğrultusunda farklı sınıflara ayrılabilirler. İlk olarak 1950’li yıllarda, Avrupa’da konut ve kamu yapıları üzerinde basit bir planlama şeklinde ortaya çıkan model kavramı, 1970 ve 1980’li yıllardan sonra yapılan çalışmalar neticesinde sınıflandırılmaya başlanmıştır. Bunlar; geleneksel modeller, tanımlayıcı modeller, gerçekçi modeller, enformasyon sistemi yaklaşım modelleridir (Akınbingöl ve Gültekin, 2005). 2.1. Geleneksel modeller Geleneksel modeller; Analitik modeller, fonksiyonel elemanlara dayalı modeller, kaynaklara dayalı modeller, yapım birimlerine dayalı modeller olarak sıralanabilir (Akınbingöl ve Gültekin, 2005). 1597 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 2.1.1. Analitik modeller Yapı üretim sürecinde eldeki bilgilerin kapsamının çok düşük olduğu ilk çalışmalardan ön tasarıma kadar ki aşamalarda kullanılan modellerdir. Amaç, en hızlı şekilde en doğru maliyet hesaplaması yapılması ve kullanıcılara sunulmasıdır (Akınbingöl ve Gültekin, 2005). 2.1.2. Fonksiyonel elemanlara dayalı modeller Elemanlara dayalı maliyet hesabı, yapı üretim sürecinin tasarım evresinde, maliyet planlaması ve kontrolünün yapılabilmesi için kullanılan bir maliyet hesabı türüdür (Uğur,2007). 2.1.3. Kaynaklara dayalı maliyet modelleri Yapı üretim sürecinin yapım aşamasında kullanılan bu modeller yardımıyla şantiye organizasyonu sağlanarak, yapılan organizasyonlarla etkin bir şantiye yönetimi gerçekleştirilebilir. Modeller, yapılacak olan her bir işe ait işgücü, malzeme ve araç gereç listesinin oluşumunu belirleyerek bunların maliyetlerinin bulunmasını sağlamaktadır (Uğur,2007). 2.1.4. Yapım birimlerine dayalı modeller Yapı üretim sürecinin yapım evresinde yapıyı oluşturmak için gerekli olan üretim birimleri ve işlemler yapım birimlerini oluşturmaktadır. Yapım birimlerine dayalı maliyet modeli de yapım birimlerinin uygulama projesi üzerinden ölçülen miktarlarıyla her birim için daha önceden belirlenmiş olan birim fiyatlarının çarpılıp elde edilen sonuçların alt alta toplanması ile yapının toplam maliyetinin hesaplanması ilkesine dayanır (Uğur,2007). 2.2. Gerçekçi modeller Gerçekçi modellerin tahmin doğruluğunun miktarlara dayalı modellere göre daha azdır. Buna rağmen, miktarlara dayalı modeller gelişmelerini neredeyse tamamladıkları halde, gerçekçi modellerin gelişme potansiyellerinin çok yüksek olduğu ileri sürülmektedir (Akınbingöl ve Gültekin, 2005). 2. 3. Uzman sistemler Bu modeller ile maliyet tahmini yapabilmek için veri tabanı ve bilgisayardan yararlanılır. Maliyet tahmininde başarılı olabilmek için de bu sistemlerin mutlaka uzman kişiler tarafından yönlendirilmesi gerekir(Akınbingöl ve Gültekin, 2005). 2.4. Tanımlayıcı modeller Bu yaklaşım, maliyetleri miktarlar yerine tasarımın tanımlayıcı özelliklerine bağlamak fikrini temel alır. Tanımlayıcı modeller regresyon analizleri kullanılarak geliştirilmiştir. Regresyon analizini kullanma fikri, yapının maliyetini hem tasarım aşamasında belirlemek için hem de yüklenicinin yaklaşık maliyeti kestirebilmesi için geliştirilmiştir (Uğur,2007). 1598 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 2.4.1. Regresyon Analizi Regresyon; aralarında neden-sonuç ilişkisi olan iki veya daha çok sayıdaki değişkenin bir denklem yardımıyla ifade edilmesidir. Herhangi iki veya daha çok sayıda değişken arasındaki ilişkinin yönü veya büyüklüğü ise regresyon analizi ile belirlenir. Regresyon analizinde, kurulan regresyon denkleminin tahmini yapılarak modelde yer alan değişkenlere dair parametreler tahmin edilir ve bu şekilde bağımlı ve bağımsız değişkenler arasındaki ilişkiler matematiksel olarak ortaya konur. Burada bağımlı değişken bir tane olmasına karşın bağımsız değişkenlerin sayısı değişebilir. Tek bağımlı ve tek bağımsız değişkenden oluşan modellere basit regresyon modeli, tek bağımlı ve birden çok bağımsız değişkenin oluşturduğu modellere ise çoklu regresyon modeli adı verilir.Regresyon analizinde modeli oluşturan değişkenlere dair katsayılar tahmin edilir. Bu katsayılar ise bağımlı değişken ile bağımsız değişken arasındaki ilişkilerin yönünü ve büyüklüğünü gösterir. Regresyon analizi kısaca, aralarında neden-sonuç ilişkisi bulunan iki veya daha çok sayıda değişken arasındaki matematiksel ilişkileri ortaya koyan yöntemdir (Temurlenk ve Yıldız, 2020). 2.4.1.1. Doğrusal Regresyon Modeli Regresyon analizi, temel olarak bir değişkenin başka değişkenler tarafından açıklandığı varsayımına dayanır. Burada bir değişken, aralarında neden-sonuç ilişkisi bulunan diğer değişkenler ile birlikte matematiksel olarak modellenir ve bu modele regresyon modeli adı verilir. Regresyon modeli fonksiyonel formda şu şekilde ifade edilebilir: Y = β0 + β1X (1. 1) Eşitlik (1. 1)’de iki değişken arasındaki ilişkinin fonksiyonel formu gösterilmektedir. Bu değişkenler Y ve X değişkenleridir. Burada Y açıklanan veya bağımlı değişken olarak adlandırılırken X değişkeni açıklayıcı veya bağımsız değişken olarak isimlendirilmektedir. β0 sabit katsayısını, β1 ise Y ve X değişkeni arasındaki ilişkinin yönünü ve büyüklüğünü gösteren katsayısı temsil etmektedir (Temurlenk ve Yıldız, 2020). 2.4.1.1.1. Bağımlı ve Bağımsız Değişken Bağımlı değişken kısaca bağımsız değişkenlere bağlı olarak değişen yani bağımsız değişkenler tarafından açıklanan değişkendir. Bağımsız değişken ise bağımlı değişkeni açıklayan değişkendir ve değişimi herhangi bir değişkene bağlı değildir. Eşitlik (1. 1)’de yer alan Y ve X sırasıyla bağımlı ve bağımsız değişkenleri temsil etmektedir. Yani bağımlı değişken olan Y bağımsız değişken olan X tarafından açıklanmaktadır (Temurlenk ve Yıldız, 2020). 1599 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 2.4.1.1.2. β0 ve β1 Katsayıları Modelde yer alan β0 katsayısı sabit katsayıyı temsil etmektedir. Sabit katsayı temel olarak bağımsız değişkenin sıfır olduğu durumda bağımlı değişkenin alacağı değerdir. β0 katsayısı güçlü teorik gerekçeler bulunmadığı takdirde doğrusal regresyon modellerinde yaygın biçiminde yer almaktadır. Öte yandan modelde yer alan β1 katsayısı bağımsız değişken katsayısıdır ve bağımsız değişkendeki değişimin bağımlı değişkeni ne yönde ve ne düzeyde etkilediğini gösterir (Temurlenk ve Yıldız, 2020). 2.4.1.2. Çoklu Doğrusal Regresyon Modeli Doğrusal regresyon analizi bağımlı ve bağımsız değişken/değişkenlerden oluşur. Eğer tek bağımsız değişken var ise basit doğrusal regresyon, iki ya da daha fazla bağımsız değişken var ise çoklu doğrusal regresyon adı verilmektedir. Regresyon analizinde değişkenler arasındaki ilişkinin fonksiyonel olarak anlamlandırılması ve modellenmesi hedeflenmektedir (Narin, Doğan, Bande, ve Genç,2023). Değişkenlerden birini veya değişkenin kategorisini önceden belirlenmiş düzeylerde tutma ve diğer değişkenin o düzeye göre nasıl değiştiğini inceleme kuralına dayanır. Regresyon, modern istatistiklerde bilinen değerleri kullanarak bilinmeyen değerleri bulmak olarak da yorumlanmaktadır (Akış, 2013). Çoklu regresyon eşitliğinde 𝑦 bağımlı değişkeni, 𝑎 sabit katsayıyı, 𝑥1…𝑛 bağımsız değişkenleri ve 𝛽1…𝑛 her bağımsız değişkenin katsayısını ifade eder. 𝑦=𝑎+ 𝛽1𝑥1+ 𝛽2𝑥2 +⋯ +𝛽𝑛𝑥𝑛 (1. 2) 3.ARAŞTIRMA VE BULGULAR 3.1. Amaç ve Yöntem Bu çalışmanın amacı, Türkiye’deki kamu eğitim yapıları yapım ihalelerinde, mimari ve statik projelerden seçilen, belirli sayıdaki parametre ile yaklaşık maliyet ve sözleşme bedelini hızlı ve kolay tahmin eden bir regresyon denkleminin bulunması ve parametre seçiminin önemini araştırmaktır. Bu çalışma, yaklaşık maliyet ve sözleşme bedelinin gerçeğe yakın olarak tahmin edilmesi, uzun süren metraj yükünün hafifletilmesi konularında literatüre de katkı sağlayacaktır. Bu bağlamda bu çalışmanın yöntemi, iki adımdan oluşmaktadır ve aşağıda sıralanmıştır: 1. Birbirine benzer ve çok sayıda projelerin Elektronik Kamu Alımları Platformu (EKAP) üzerinden temin edilmesi. 2. Metraj çalışmalarının yapılması ve yaklaşık maliyet ve sözleşme bedellerinin güncellenmesi. a. 96 adet kamu eğitim projeleri üzerinden metraj çalışmalarının yapılması 1600 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal b. Projelerin yaklaşık maliyet bedellerinin ve sözleşme bedellerinin TÜİK verilerine göre güncellenmesi. 3. Çoklu doğrusal regresyon yöntemi ile yaklaşık maliyet bedeli ve sözleşme bedelinin tahmin denkleminin bulunması: a. Bağımsız değişkenlerin bir birleri ile olan ilişkilerinin korelasyon analizleri ile incelenmesi ve regresyon veri setlerinin belirlenmesi, b. Korelasyon analizi sonucunda elde edilen veri setleri ile yaklaşık maliyet bedelleri ve sözleşme bedellerinin regresyon analizi ile tahmin edilmesi. c. Korelasyon analizleri sonucunda farklı değişkenler seçimi ile maliyet tahmininde yaklaşık maliyet bedeli ve sözleşme bedeli tahminlerinin hata oranının incelenmesi. 3.2. Bulgular Türkiye’nin farklı illerinde Elektronik Kamu Alımları Platformu (EKAP) üzerinden temin edilen 2020 ile 2022 yılları arasında kamu kurumlarınca ihale edilmiş ve sözleşmesi imzalanmış 96 adet eğitim binası incelenmiştir. Yapılacak regresyon analizinde eğitim serisi olarak 81 adet proje, test amaçlı kullanılmak üzere 15 adet proje ayrılmıştır. Her yıl gerçekleşen birim fiyat değişikliklerinden dolayı ihalesi yapılmış projeler arasında zamana bağlı maliyet farkı oluşmaktadır. Bu çalışmada zamana bağlı farkın ortadan kaldırılması adına her yıl TÜİK tarafından yayınlanan ve Tablo 1. ’de gösterilen bina inşaatı maliyet endeksi ve değişim oranları değişim oranları tablosu kullanılmıştır.Tablo 1. ’e göre 2023 yılı Ocak ayı ortalama maliyet oranı referans alınarak 2020-2022 yılları arasındaki her ay için ayrı ayrı katsayılar belirlenmiştir. Veri setindeki bütün projeler yaklaşık maliyet ve sözleşme bedelleri ihale edildikleri yıl ve aya göre bu katsayılar kullanılarak güncellenmiştir. Bu projelerin ihale yapıldığı yıllardaki ve güncellenmiş yaklaşık maliyet ve sözleşme bedeli rakamları Tablo 2. ve Tablo 3.’ de gösterilmiştir. 1601 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Otokorelasyon, oluşturulan modeldeki hatalar arasında ilişki olması durumudur. Regresyon modelinde otokorelasyon olmamalı, oluşturulan modeldeki hatalar rastgele olmalıdır. Bu durum Durbin-Watson testi ile kontrol edilir. Durbin-Watson testi sonucunun 2 civarında çıkması modelde otokorelasyon problemi olmadığını göstermektedir. Yapılan inceleme sonucunda 1,523 olarak tespit edilen Durbin- Watson sonucuna göre oluşturduğumuz modelde otokorelasyon probleminin olmadığı görülmektedir. Modelde çoklu bağıntı problemi olup olmadığını ise değişkenlere ait VIF değerine bakılarak incelenmektedir. VIF değerinin 10’un üzerinde olmaması gerekmektedir. Modele alınan 18 bağımsız değişken içinde VIF değerinin 12 değişkenin 10’un altında kaldığı görülmektedir. Bu sonuca göre modele alınan değişkenler arasında 12 değişken için çoklu bağıntı problemi olmadığı söylenebilir. Toplam Kat Sayısı, Bina Yüksekliği, Bodrum Yüksekliği, Kat Alanı, Bodrum Alanı ve Toplam Alan değişkenlerinde çoklu bağıntı problemi olduğu görülmektedir. Tablo 13.

Regresyon modelinde otokorelasyon olmamalı, oluşturulan modeldeki hatalar rastgele olmalıdır. Bu durum Durbin-Watson testi ile kontrol edilir. Durbin-Watson testi sonucunun 2 civarında çıkması modelde otokorelasyon problemi olmadığını göstermektedir. Yapılan inceleme sonucunda 1,950 olarak tespit edilen Durbin- Watson sonucuna göre oluşturduğumuz modelde otokorelasyon probleminin olmadığı görülmektedir. Modelde çoklu bağıntı problemi olup olmadığını ise değişkenlere ait VIF değerine bakılarak incelenmektedir. VIF değerinin 10’un üzerinde olmaması gerekmektedir. Modele alınan 18 bağımsız değişken içinde VIF değerinin 12 değişkenin 10’un altında kaldığı görülmektedir. Bu sonuca göre modele alınan değişkenler arasında 12 değişken için çoklu bağıntı problemi olmadığı söylenebilir. Toplam Kat Sayısı, Bina Yüksekliği, Bodrum Yüksekliği, Kat Alanı, Bodrum Alanı ve Toplam Alan değişkenlerinde çoklu bağıntı problemi olduğu görülmektedir. 1620 VI.

Projeler 81 adet eğitim, 15 adet test verisi olacak şekilde ayrılmıştır. Yapım yılı maliyetleri TÜİK’ ten elde edilen Bina inşaatı maliyet endeksi ve değişim oranları tablosuna göre 2023 yılı Ocak ayına çevrilmiş Yaklaşık Maliyet Bedeli ve Sözleşme Bedeli güncellenmiştir. Projeler üzerinden eğitim yapısının inşaat maliyeti çıktı değişkenini etkilediği bilinen; Derslik Sayısı, Yapım Süresi, Toplam Kat Sayısı, Kat Yüksekliği, Bina Yüksekliği, Bina Yükseklik Sınıfı(BYS), Bodrum Yüksekliği, Deprem Tasarım Sınıfı(DTS), Zemin Sınıfı, Zemin Emniyet Gerilmesi, Yatak Katsayısı, Beton Sınıfı, Asansör Sayısı, Islak Alan, Radye Temel Yüksekliği, Kat Alanı, Bodrum Alanı, Toplam Alan parametreleri belirlenmiş ve regresyon analizinde kullanılmıştır. Regresyon analizi “SPSS Statistics 26” yazılımı ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu parametreler kullanılarak Regresyon Analizleri (RA) yapılmış ve eğitim yapılarının maliyetlerini tahmin etmek için formüller geliştirilmiştir. Geliştirilen formüllerle Sözleşme Bedeli ve Yaklaşık Maliyet Bedeli tahmin edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Elde edilen formüller ile test verisi olarak seçilen 15 eğitim projesinde hata oranları tespit edilmiştir. Geliştirilen 1621 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal formüllerden tüm parametrelerin kullanıldığı model Sözleşme Bedeli için R²=0.927, Yaklaşık Maliyet Bedeli için ise R²=0.900 katsayısı ile en iyi ilişki düzeyine sahip modeller oluşmuştur. Tahmin edilen sonuçlar ile gerçek sonuçlar arasındaki tutarlılığı kontrol etmek amacıyla Durbin-Watson kriteri kullanılmıştır.Çoklu regresyon analizi için verilerin normal dağılması koşulu sağlanmış, çoklu bağlantı ve otokorelasyon sorunları olmadığı tespit edilmiştir(p<0,05). Yaklaşık Maliyet Bedeli tahmini için yapılan regresyon modelinin sonucunda hesaplanan hata değeri ortalama % 17,50 hata oranı olarak bulunmuştur. Sözleşme Bedeli tahmini için yapılan regresyon modelinin sonucunda hesaplanan hata değeri ortalama % 18,20 hata oranı olarak bulunmuştur. Ancak farklılıkları da temsil edecek yeter sayıda örnekle çalışılması durumunda daha sağlıklı sonuç almak mümkündür.Sonuç olarak, farklı tip ve katsayılarına sahip okul yapılarının yaklaşık maliyetlerini ve sözleşme bedellerini %20’den düşük hata oranları ile tahmin edebilen bir yaklaşım oluşturulmuştur. Gerek kamu kuruluşları gerekse taahhüt eden yapım firmaları bu modellemelerden istifade ederek zamansal tasarruflar sağlayarak gerçekçi maliyet tahminlerinde bulunabileceklerdir. Benzer çalışmaların veri adetleri arttırılarak yapılması, daha sonraki modellemelerde hata oranı minimizasyonu için bir çözüm olabilir. 1622 VI.

Yaşlı bireylerin bağımsızlıklarını korumalarına, bilgiye kolayca erişmelerine ve sosyal çevreleri ile bağlantıda kalmalarına yardımcı olması, dijital teknolojiyi yaşlı bireylerin toplumsal hayata katılımı için güçlü bir kolaylaştırıcı kılmaktadır. Yaşlı bireylerin sosyal katılımını teşvik eden teknoloji, zihinsel uyarımı artırarak yaşlı bireylerin bilişsel becerilerini sürdürmesine destek olmaktadır. Bir başka ifadeyle teknolojiye adapte olmanın yaşlı bireylerde sağlığın farklı boyutları üzerinde iyileştirici etkisi bulunmaktadır. Her ne kadar dijital teknoloji, yaşlı bireylerin yaşam kalitesini artırarak toplumda daha aktif bir rol oynamalarına yardımcı olsa da yaşlılar yeni teknolojileri öğrenmede zorluklarla karşılaşmakta ve daha fazla eğitime ihtiyaç duyabilmektedir. Yaşlıların teknolojiye adaptasyonunun önündeki zorluklar yaşlanmayla ilişkilendirilen bir dizi fiziksel, bilişsel, algısal ve psikolojik sorunu içermektedir. Bu zorluklar, yaşlı bireylerin teknolojiye adaptasyonunu güçleştirmekte, bu durum ise dijital uçurumun büyümesine neden olmaktadır. Yeni teknolojiler aynı zamanda, kişiler arası iletişimde ileri yaştaki bireyler ile gençler arasındaki en büyük iletişim engelini oluşturmaktadır. Dijital teknolojilerin yaşlı bireyler için barındırdığı potensiyel ve teknolojiye adapte olamamanın beraberinde getirdiği olumsuzluklar göz önünde bulundurulduğunda dijital okuryazarlığın yaşlılar için önemli bir ihtiyaç olduğu aşikardır. Bu bağlamda çeşitli dijital okuryazarlık aktiviteleri ile yaşlı bireylerin teknolojiye adaptasyonun desteklenmesi ve teknoloji kullanımının teşvik edilmesi gerekmektedir. Bu derleme bildirinin amacı, literatürdeki çalışmalar ışığında yaşlı bireyler arasında teknoloji kullanım yaygınlığının, yaşlı bireylerde teknoloji kullanmanın fırsatlar ile zorluklarının incelenmesi ve yaşlılara yönelik dijital okuryazarlık aktivitelerinin tartışılmasıdır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Dijital okuryazarlık, yaşlılar, sosyal katılım, teknoloji kullanımı 1624 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal DIGITAL OLD AGE: DIGITAL LITERACY AND ADAPTATION TO TECHNOLOGY IN THE ELDERLY Abstract Ditijal technology has become an important component of participation in society today. Helping older adults maintain their independence, easily access information, and stay connected to their social environment makes digital technology a powerful facilitator for older adults' participation in social life. Technology that encourages the social participation of older adults helps them maintain their cognitive skills by increasing mental stimulation. In other words, adapting to technology has a healing effect on different dimensions of health in older adults. Although digital technology helps older adults play a more active role in society by improving their quality of life, older adults face difficulties in learning new technologies and may need more training. Challenges to older adults 's adaptation to technology include a number of physical, cognitive, perceptual and psychological problems associated with aging. These difficulties make it difficult for older adults to adapt to technology, which causes the digital divide to widen. New technologies also create the biggest communication barrier between older adults and young people in interpersonal communication. Considering the potential of digital technologies for older adults and the negativities brought about by not being able to adapt to technology, it is obvious that digital literacy is an important need for the elderly. In this context, it is necessary to support older adults’ adaptation to technology and encourage their use of technology through various digital literacy activities. The purpose of this review paper is to examine the prevalence of technology use among older adults, the opportunities and difficulties of using technology in older adults, and to discuss digital literacy activities for the elderly in the light of studies in the literature. Keywords: Digital literacy, elderly, social participation, technology use 1625 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Teknolojinin hızla gelişmesi toplumsal, ekonomik, kültürel ve sosyal dinamikleri etkilemiştir. Günümüzde birçok eylem dijital teknoloji kullanımına bağımlı hale gelmiştir. Bu durum, teknolojiyi bir ihtiyaçtan ziyade zorunluluk haline getirmiştir. Dünyanın demografik olarak yaşlandığı günümüzde, dijital teknoloji yaşlılık deneyimini dönüştürmekte ve yaşlı bireyler için birçok fırsat sunmaktadır. Sağlığın fiziksel, ruhsal ve sosyal boyutlarına sağladığı faydanın yanında dijital teknolojiler yaşlı bireylerin yaşam kalitesini artırmakta ve bağımsızlıklarını desteklemektedir. Diğer yandan teknoloji kullanımı yaşlılık döneminde bir zorluk olarak ortaya çıkmaktadır. Bu fırsatlar ve zorluklar ikileminde yaşlı bireylerin dijital teknolojiye adaptasyonu önemli bir araştırma ve tartışma konusu haline gelmektedir. Dijital Dönüşümün Yaşlılar Üzerindeki Etkisi Dijital teknoloji gelişimindeki baş döndürücü hız toplumun her kesimini etkilemektedir. Yaşlı nüfusun giderek artması, yaşlı bireylerin teknoloji ile etkileşimini ve dijital dönüşümün yaşlılar üzerindeki etkisini daha önemli hale getirmektedir. Yaşlanma ile azalan fiziksel ve bilişsel işlevlerin iyileştirilmesine yardımcı olmak, yaşlı bireylerin sosyal ilişkilerini sürdürmelerini sağlamak, bağımsız yaşamı desteklemek, bireylerin iyilik halini ve refahlarını korumak dijital teknolojinin yaşlanan dünya için barındırdığı fırsatlardandır. Yaşlı bireyleri dijital teknoloji kullanması, bireyin refahını iyileştirmekte, çevrimiçi etkinliklere katılma yaşlı bireylerin sosyal katılımını teşvik etmekte, böylelikle sosyal izolasyon ve yalnızlık duygusunu minimize etmektedir. Zira sosyal medya platformları ve video konferans ile görüşme uygulamaları yaşlı bireylerin aileleri, torunları, sosyal çevreleri ile etkileşim halinde olmalarını sağlamaktadır. Bilhassa bakım kurumunda kalan yaşlı bireyler aileleri ile daha az iletişimde kalma eğiliminde olabilmektedir. Bu noktada teknoloji, yaşlı bireylerin aileleri ile bağlantıda kalmaları için bir araç olabilmektedir. Yaşlı bireylerin sosyal izolasyonunu azaltarak aile bağlarını güçlendiren teknolojik ürün ve uygulamaları kullanmak, aynı zamanda yaşlı bireylerin teknolojiyi kullanma konusundaki özgüvenlerini artırabilmekte ve teknolojinin günlük yaşamın bir parçası olarak benimsenmesine katkı sunmaktadır. Dijital ortamda oyun oynanması yaşlıların motor becerilerini, algısal/bilişsel yeteneklerini ve duygusal/motivasyonel durumlarını geliştirmektedir (Nimrod, 2019; Szabo, Allen, Stephens, & Alpass, 2019; Wang, Hou, & Tsai, 2020). Bu fırsatlar göz önünde bulundurulduğunda dijital teknolojiyi kullanan yaşlı nüfusun katlanarak artması şaşırtıcı değildir (Anderson & Perrin, 2017). Türkiye İstatistik Kurumu tarafından gerçekleştirilen Hanehalkı Bilişim Teknolojileri Kullanım Araştırması verilerine göre 2017 yılında internet kullanan 65-74 yaş aralığındaki birey oranı %11,3 iken bu oran 2022 1626 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yılında %36,6’ya yükselmiştir (Türkiye İstatistik Kurumu, 2023). Her ne kadar yaşlılar arasında teknoloji kullanımı yaygınlaşsa da bu oran genç nüfusa kıyasla düşük kalmakta ve dijital bir uçuruma neden olmaktadır. Yaşlıların Teknolojiye Adaptasyonunda Engeller Yaşlı bireylerin teknoloji kullanımının önünde bir dizi güçlükler bulunmaktadır. Bunlardan ilki yaşa bağlı engellerdir. Yaşa bağlı engeller olarak nitelendirilebilecek olan görme problemleri, el becerisi ve hareketliliği ile ilişkili sorunlar, anlama güçlüğü, algılama sınırlılığı yaşlı bireyleri teknolojiyi kullanırken karşı karşıya kalabileceği engellerdendir. Bununla birlikte teknolojinin karmaşık olduğu algısı, teknik terimler, küçük yazılar bu engelleri artırabilmektedir. Bu engeller yaşlı bireyler ile teknoloji arasında bir bariyere neden olmaktayken diğer yandan teknoloji, yaşla ilişkili olan bu olumsuzlukların giderilmesinde önemli bir destek sunmaktadır. Yaşlı bireylerin güvenliğini ve bağımsız yaşamını kolaylaştıran teknoloji, yaşlı bireylerin sağlığını da desteklemektedir (Rogers, Stronge, & Fisk, 2005).Yaşlı bireylerin teknolojiye yönelik tutumları, bir diğer engeli oluşturmaktadır. Teknolojinin tehlikeli, güvensiz, pahalı, karmaşık, öğrenilmesi zor olarak algılanması yaşlı bireylerin teknolojiye adapte olma motivasyonunu düşürmektedir. Yaşlı bireylerin teknolojik ürünleri ve teknoloji kullanımı için eğitim almasına yönelik mali engeller, yeterli eğitim ve destek olanaklarının sınırlılığı yaşlı bireylerin teknolojiyi etkin bir biçimde kullanmalarının önündeki engellerden bir diğeridir. Ekonomik kısıtlılık nedeniyle teknolojik ürünlere erişememe, ekonomik engeller kapsamında değerlendirilebilmekte ve yaşlı bireylerde teknoloji kullanımını güçleştirmektedir (Özkan & Purutçuoğlu, 2010). İngiltere’de yapılan bir araştırmada 60-69 yaş aralığındaki bireylerin yarısında evde internet erişimi bulunurken bu oranın 70 yaş ve üstü kişilerde %17’ye düştüğü saptanmıştır. Yaşın artmasıyla birlikte evde internet erişim oranını düşüren tek unsur ekonomik maliyetler değildir. Yaşlı bireylerin bu tür dijital teknolojilerin kendileri ile ilgili olmadığı ve bu teknolojileri kullanarak herhangi bir kazanım sağlamayacaklarına yönelik algı ve tutumları da oranın düşmesi üzerinde etkilidir (Tuna Uysal, 2020). Yaşlıların Teknolojiyle İlişkisini Güçlendirme: Dijital Okuryazarlık Dijital okuryazarlık, teknolojiyi kullanmak için gerekli teknik bilginin ötesinde teknolojiye bilişsel, kültürel ve sosyal olarak uyum sağlamayı da içeren bir kavramdır. Kavramı ilk defa kullanan araştırmacı Paul Gilster, dijital okuryazarlığın sadece teknik becerilerle değil, aynı zamanda derinlemesine düşünme, eleştirel analiz yapma ve bilgiyi etkili bir şekilde kullanma yeteneğiyle ilişkili özel bir tür zihniyet olduğunu vurgulamıştır. Ona göre, dijital okuryazarlık sadece tuşlara basmayı öğrenmekle değil, aynı zamanda dijital ortamlarda bulunan bilgiyi 1627 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal değerlendirme, yorumlama ve sentezleme becerisini içeren bir düşünce tarzını ifade etmektedir (Gilster, 1997). Teknolojinin hızla geliştiği ve değiştiği günümüzde, bireylerin bu değişimlere uyum sağlamak amacıyla geliştirdiği beceriler dijital okuryazarlık olarak tanımlanmaktadır (Yıldırım, 2021). Dijital okuryazarlık becerileri, bireylerin teknolojiyi doğru ve faydalı bir biçimde kullanmalarını, böylelikle dijitalleşen dünyaya aktif bir şekilde katılmalarını olanaklı hale getirmektedir. Burada yola çıkarak dijital okuryazarlık, dijital çağda hayatta kalma becerisi olarak nitelendirilmektedir (Eshet-Alkalai, 2004). Yaşlı bireylerin teknolojinin faydalarından daha geniş anlamda yararlanabilmeleri ve dijital dünyaya entegre olabilmeleri için dijital okuryazarlık becerilerinin geliştirilmesi önemli bir önkoşuldur. Bu bağlamda öncelikli olarak yaşlı bireylerin temel teknoloji becerilerini öğrenmesi gerekmektedir. Telefon kullanma, bilgisayar kullanma, tablet kullanma temel düzeyde teknoloji becerilerini kapsamaktadır. Çevrimiçi güvenlik ve gizlilik ile ilgili konular da dijital okuryazarlık kapsamında yaşlı bireylere aktarılmalıdır. Yaşlı bireylerin aileleri ve sosyal çevreleri ile bağlantıda kalmasını sağlayan sosyal medya platformları, video konferans uygulamaları, çevrimiçi gruplar gibi araçların kullanılması da dijital okuryazarlık kapsamında desteklenmelidir. Sonuç ve Öneriler Yaşlı bireyler için teknolojiye adapte olmak ve buna olanak sağlayan dijital okuryazarlık, toplumların yaşlanma sürecinin beraberinde getirdiği zorluklarla başa çıkma ve yaşlı bireylerin refahını iyileştirme için kritik bir rol oynamaktadır. Yaşlı bireylerin dijital okuryazarlık becerilerinin geliştirilmesi için yaşlı bireylere özel, eğitim programları geliştirilmelidir. Bu eğitim programları ile birlikte yaşlı dostu teknolojik arayüzler geliştirilmelidir. Büyük yazı boyutunu, kolay okunabilir metin boşluklarını içeren bu arayüzler ile yaşlı bireylerin teknolojik uygulama ve ürünleri kullanmaları kolaylaşmaktadır. Yaşlı bireylere teknoloji kullanımı konusunda bireysel destek sunulmalıdır. Teknoloji ile ilgili soruları yanıtlamak, pratik becerilerin kazandırılmasına yardımcı olmak, güvenliğe ilişkin kazanımları sağlamak amacıyla bireysel destek sunulması önem arz etmektedir. Yaşlı bireylerin teknoloji kullanımına ilişkin araştırmalar oldukça kısıtlıdır. Dijital okuryazarlık ve teknoloji kullanımı ile ilgili araştırmalar ağırlıklı olarak genç popülasyon ile yürütülmektedir. Dünya nüfusunun hızla yaşlandığı ve teknolojinin yaşlanan nüfus için barındırdığı fırsatlar göz önünde bulundurulduğunda konunun yaşlı bireyler özelinde ele alınması gerekmektedir. 1628 VI.

Maddesine göre “herkesin kendisinin ve ailesinin sağlık ve refahı için beslenme, giyim, konut ve tıbbi bakım hakkı vardır.” Barınma hakkı, insan hakları kapsamında kabul gören temel bir haktır. Bu hak, her bireyin yaşam kalitesini artırmak ve insan onuruna yakışır bir yaşam sürmesini sağlamak için temel bir ihtiyaç olan barınma ve konut edinme hakkını içermektedir. Günümüzde uluslararası arenada konut hakkı bir adım öteye taşınmış olup elverişli konut hakkı söylemi ön plana çıkmaktadır. Elverişli konut hakkı, her birey için önemli olsa da güvenli, erişilebilir ve uygun konut koşullarına sahip olmak yaşlı bireylerin yaşam kalitesi için oldukça önemlidir. Zira yaşlılık döneminde, yaralanma ve düşmelerin ağırlıklı olarak evde meydana geldiği, yaşın ilerlemesiyle birlikte karşılaşılan sağlık sorunları ve fiziksel kısıtlamalar göz önünde bulundurulduğunda konut güvenliğini yaşlı bireyler için daha hayati hale getirmektedir. Yaşlıların, bihassa yalnız yaşayan yaşlıların yaşadığı konutların yaşlı bireylerin fiziksel, bilişsel ve zihinsel fonskiyonları dikkate alınarak düzenlenmesi gerekmektedir. Konutu güvenli hale getirmek, yalnızca fiziksel güvenliği sağlamakla kalmayıp aynı zamanda yaşlı bireyin psikolojik ve sosyal iyilik halini desteklemektedir. Bu bildirinin amacı elverişli konut hakkını yaşlı hakları perspektifinden ele almak ve konutları yaşlı bireyler için güvenli hale getirmek amacıyla yapılabilecek ev içi düzenlenmelere ilişkin öneriler sunmaktır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal SAFE. HOUSING FROM ELDERLY RIGHTS PERSPECTIVE Abstract According to Article 25 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, “everyone has the right to food, clothing, housing and medical care for the health and well-being of herself/himself and her/his family.” The right to shelter is a fundamental right accepted within the scope of human rights. This right includes the right to shelter and housing, which is a basic need to improve the quality of life of every individual and to enable them to live a life worthy of human dignity. Today, the right to housing has moved one step further in the international arena and the discourse of the right to adequate housing comes to the fore. Although the right to adequate housing is important for every individual, having safe, accessible and suitable housing conditions is very important for the quality of life of older adults. Considering that in old age, injuries and falls mainly occur at home, and the health problems and physical limitations encountered with advancing age, home security becomes more vital for older adults. The residences where the elderly, especially the elderly living alone, live should be arranged taking into account the physical, cognitive and mental functions of the older adults. Making the home safe not only ensures physical safety but also supports the psychological and social well-being of older adults. The aim of this paper is to discuss the right to adequate housing from the perspective of older adults’ rights and to offer suggestions on domestic arrangements that can be made to make homes safe for older adults. Keywords: Elderly rights, right to housing, housing security, accessible housing 1631 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Demografik dönüşümün yaşandığı günümüzde yaşlı nüfusu giderek artmaktadır. Artan yaşlı nüfusu ile birlikte yaşlı bireylerin yaşam kalitesini ve refahını iyileştirmek için müdahale edilmesi gereken temel alanlardan birisini konut oluşturmaktadır. Yaşlı bireylerin konutları, güvenliklerini, sağlıklarını ve refahlarını doğrudan etkileyen bir faktördür. Bu bağlamda ele alındığında, güvenli konutlar yaşlıların sağlıklı ve mutlu bir yaşlılık dönemi sürmeleri için vazgeçilmez bir gerekliliktir. Yaşlı bireyler için güvenli konut, fiziksel ve sosyal olarak yaşlı bireylerin ihtiyaçlarına uygun, erişilebilir bir yaşam alanını ifade etmektedir. Fiziksel, sosyal ve duygusal ihtiyaçları göz önünde bulundurularak tasarlanmış güvenli konutlar, yaşlı bireylerin bağımsızlıklarını korumalarını ve yaşam kalitelerini artırmalarını sağlamaktadır. Yaşlanan Dünya ve Konut Güvenliği Konut, yaşlı bireyler için yalnızca barınmanın gerçekleştiği mekân değil, aynı zamanda yaşlı bireyin alışkanlık sağladığı, güven duyulması ve rahat edilmesi gereken bir yerdir. Konutun kalitesi yaşlı bireye sağladığı bağımsızlık ve gizlilikle ölçülmektedir (Topgül, 2023). Bağımsızlık yaşlı bireylerde konut planlamasında dikkat edilmesi gereken en önemli unsurlardan biridir. Nitekim konut düzenlemesinde, yaşlı bireylerin fiziksel yetenekleri göz önünde bulundurulmadıkça geleneksel uygulamalar yaşlı bireyler için bağımsızlık sağlamaya yetmemektedir (Kalınkara, 2016). Yaşlı bireylerin ihtiyaçları gözetilerek yapılan evlerin, yaşlanma sürecini destekleyecek biçimde yapılması önem arz etmektedir. Konut, yaşlı bireyler için önemli bir alandır. Yaşlılık döneminde sık rastlanan fiziksel kısıtlılıklar, sosyal izolasyon bireylerin bu yaşam döneminde evde daha fazla vakit geçirmesine neden olmaktadır. Konutların, yaşlı bireylerin değişen koşullarına erişilebilirlik, güvenlik ve bağımsızlık konusunda cevap vermesi gerekmektedir. Ev içinde bulunan soğuk, rutubet gibi çevresel tehditler ve uygun olmayan barınma ortamı yaşlı bireylerin sağlığını daha da kötüleştirmektedir. Bununla birlikte yaşlıların işlevsel kısıtlamaları ile ev içinde günlük yaşamı sürdürmede güçlükler ortaya çıkmakta, bu durum bağımsız yaşamı engellemektedir. Konut içindeki fiziksel uygunsuzluklar yaşlı bireylerde ev kazaları ve yaralanma riskini de artırmaktadır. Yaşlı bireylerin ev içinde dolaşırken veya tuvalet ya da banyoda kayma, düşme, merdivenlerden inip çıkarken düşme, günlük yaşam aktivitelerini yerine getirirken kaza geçirme ihtimalleri artmaktadır. Bu ihtimaller yaşlı bireyin evde bakım ihtiyacını veya kurum bakımına taşınmasını beraberinde getirmektedir (Topgül, 2023; Braubach & Power, 2011). 1632 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Temel Bir Hak Olarak Elverişli Konut Hakkı Barınma hakkı, İnsan Hakları Evrensel Beyannamesi’nin 25. Maddesinde yer alan “yeterli yaşam standardı” hakkının bir bileşeni olarak tanınmıştır. İlgili maddede, herkesin kendisine ve ailesine sağlıklı ve yeterli bir yaşam standardını sağlayacak bir barınma hakkına sahip olduğunu belirtilmektedir. Barınma hakkı yalnızca barınacak bir yerin olması değil aynı zamanda konutun kalitesi, uygun maliyeti, erişilebilirliği, güvenliği gibi birçok unsuru içermektedir. Bireylerin barınma imkânı olsa bile eğer konut güvenli barınma imkanlarından yoksunsa bireyler ciddi sağlık sorunları başta olmak üzere çeşitli zorluklarla karşı karşıya kalmaktadır. Bu bağlamda elverişli konut hakkı, tüm ekonomik, sosyal ve kültürel haklardan yararlanılması için merkezi öneme sahiptir. Bir başka ifadeyle elverişli konut hakkı, çalışma, sağlık, sosyal güvenlik, oy kullanma, mahremiyet veya eğitim hakları da dahil olmak üzere çeşitli insan haklarından yararlanmanın bir önkoşulu olarak değerlendirilmektedir (Gutterman , 2023). Elverişli konut temel bir insan hakkı olmakla birlikte refahın önemli bir belirleyicisidir. Bu nedenle yaşlı bireylerin konut ve konut çevresinin iyileştirilmesi önemlidir. Konutun değerlendirilmesi ve yaşlı bireye uygun hale getirilmesi oldukça komplike bir durumdur. Zira bu değerlendirme ve düzenleme beklentilere, ihtiyaçlara ve ekonomik duruma göre farklılık göstermektedir. Yaşlı bireylerin birçoğunun uzun süre kendi evinde yaşamak istemesi nedeniyle, gerekli değerlendirme ve düzenlemelerin yapılarak konutun yaşlı bireye uygun hale getirilmesi gerekmektedir. Güvenli Konut: Yaşlı Dostu Evlerin Özellikleri Sağlıklı yaşlanma, ilerleyen yaşlarda bireyleri işlevselliklerini devam ettirmesi ile gerçekleşebilmektedir. Dünya Sağlık Örgütü tarafından yayınlanan Avrupa’da Yaş Dostu Ortamlar Politika Eylem Alanları El Kitabı’na göre yaş dostu ortamların üç bileşenin bir araya gelmesi ile oluşmaktadır. Bu bileşenler belediye hizmetleri, sosyal ortam ve fiziksel ortamdır. Topluluk, sağlık hizmetleri, iletişim ve bilgilendirme belediye hizmetlerinin kapsamına girerken; sivil katılım, istihdam, sosyal içerme, ayrımcılığın önlenmesi, sosyal katılım başlıkları sosyal ortam kapsamında değerlendirilmektedir. Fiziksel ortam ise dış ortamları, ulaşımı, hareketliliği, konutu kapsamaktadır (World Health Organization, 2017). Dezavantajlı bir grup olarak nitelendirilen yaşlı bireylerin işlevsel kapasitelerini desteklemek üzere tasarlanmış yaşlı dostu konutlar, yaşam alanlarının yaşlıların işlevsel kapasitelerini göz önünde bulundurarak ve yeterli ulaşım araçlarının sağlanması yoluyla hareketliliklerini ve iletişimlerini kolaylaştıracak şekilde dizayn edilmektedir. Ev içinde yapılabilecek basit 1633 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal düzenlemeler yaşlı bireylerin yerinde yaşlanma süresini uzatarak bağımsız yaşamını desteklemektedir (Rowles, 2018). Sonuç ve Öneriler Barınma hakkı, barınmayla eşit tutulan dar veya kısıtlayıcı bir anlamda yorumlanmamalıdır. Barınma hakkı, başını sokacak bir çatı ya da barınmayı yalnızca bir meta olarak görmek yerine bir yerde güvenlik, barış ve onur içinde yaşama hakkı olarak görülmelidir. Bu da konut değil aynı zamanda elverişli konut hakkına işaret etmektedir. Yaşlı dostu konutlar, yalnızca yaşlı bireylerin yerinde yaşlanmasını desteklemekle kalmayıp aynı zamanda yaşlı bireylerin ekonomik ve sosyal refahına katkı sunacaktır (Pynoos & Nishita, 2006). Yaşlıların mümkün olduğu kadar uzun süre kendi evlerinde yaşamaya devam etmelerine yardımcı olmak, bunun için gerekli konut düzenlemelerini yapmak, gerekli önlemleri almak, konutun yaşlıların işlevselliklerine uygun hale getirilmesi elverişli konut hakkına erişim için öncelikli eylem alanları olmalıdır. Yaşlı bireylerin sosyoekonomik durumları ve bağımsızlık derecelerine uygun çeşitli konut türlerinin geliştirilmesi amacıyla kamu finansmanı ve özel sektörle anlaşmalar sağlanmalıdır. 1634 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal SEMANTIC AND FUNCTIONAL CHANGE OF SHOPPING AND FASHION IN THE AGE OF CONSUMER CULTURE Prof. Dr. Celalettin VATANDAŞ* (ORCID: 0000-0003-1431-3553) Tekirdağ Namık Kemal Üniversitesi Fen-Edebiyat Fakültesi Sosyoloji Bölümü, TekirdağTürkiye Email: cvatandas@nku.edu.tr Doç. Dr. Saniye VATANDAŞ (ORCID: 0000-0001-9075-0152) Tekirdağ Namık Kemal Üniversitesi Fen-Edebiyat Fakültesi Sosyoloji Bölümü, TekirdağTürkiye Email: svatandas@nku.edu.tr Abstract The general course of consumption behaviour and shopping behaviour has undergone a significant change following the Industrial Revolution. Towards the end of the 19th century, when production was prioritised, consumption became the main paradigm, and practices that encourage consumption and create new needs became widespread. The culture industry, which has become dominant thanks to mass media, has prioritised the creation of new needs, and this has led to the formation of a sector called fashion. Fashion, which was previously only in a narrow framework and for those with high socio-economic opportunities, has become a phenomenon that shapes and directs the consumption behaviour of the masses through mass media. The most characteristic feature of fashion, which determines the creation of new needs and the way these needs are met, is change. Change is a value glorified by today's dominant mentality. Clothes, automobiles, houses, mobile phones, white goods, furniture, physical appearance and even people, friendships, values, emotions, beliefs, which are indicators of an individual's tastes and material power, are the objects of change. Therefore, fashion is about everything. In the context of all these, fashion, in the shortest terms, is what is temporary. Something becomes fashionable only for a certain/limited period of time and then quickly becomes obsolete. Essentially, the process of becoming obsolete begins with something becoming fashionable. The idea of obsolescence is what enables something to be fashionable and unfashionable, that is, the rapid change that takes place in this process, in other words, the fashion trend to start the next trend. With this research, the semantic change, formation and functioning of the concept of fashion will be discussed. Keywords: Fashion, Obsolescence, Obsolescence, Consumption. 1636 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction Capitalism, culture industry, consumer culture, fashion, advertising... all these are situations and phenomena that have a direct and strong relationship with each other. They have enveloped individual and collective mentalities and all areas of individual and social life. Capitalism represents the most dominant phenomenon among them all. The others fulfil their functions under the influence and control of capitalism in a cause-and-effect relationship or in support of each other. To make a statement on fashion, the subject of this chapter, fashion cannot exist in its present meaning and function without capitalist mentality and practices. The culture industry, which is a sub-element of capitalism, makes use of advertising while creating and popularising fashion. The ultimate goal of all these is the culture of consumption. Consumption culture motivates capitalist mentality and practices. Fashion And Consumption Now we can ask our main question: What is fashion? There is no standard defınition of fashion that is accepted by everyone. Because it can have different defınitions according to its scope and function. For this reason, many defınitions have been made. New defınitions continue to be made. The meaning and function of fashion may differ in different social structures according to the dominant mentality and lifestyles there. For example, socioeconomic status and situations can significantly change the meaning and function attributed to fashion. Similarly, changes in the acceptance and understanding of "consumption" can lead to changes in the meaning and function of fashion. Nevertheless, by taking into account the common features and commonly accepted meanings of the definitions, some determinations can be made about what fashion is, even in a general sense. Fashion, in the most general sense, refers to what is accepted and/or used by a certain group of people at a certain time and in a certain place. For this reason, the definition of style and form in force in dictionaries is meaningful. The determination of the rule that temporarily regulates the use and shapes of ornaments, clothing, furniture, etc. expressed by another definition expresses one of the common views on the scope of fashion. Many more definitions can be expressed based on different dictionaries and encyclopaedias. The origin of the word fashion can be seen as the right starting point to determine the meaning of fashion in order to reach the result in a short way without wandering between definitions. According to the common opinion, the origin of fashion is mod, which is a statistical term. Mode refers to the most repeated number among the numbers in a certain sequence. Therefore, fashion refers to the most repeated thing, the common thing. It is important that fashion expresses the state of "prevalence". While a work, behaviour or appearance that is 1637 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal done by a person or a few people in a society and is out of the ordinary may be considered strange, the fact that that thing becomes widespread and is done/adopted by many people can lead to the normalisation of that thing. This situation points to fashion. Of course, there are some important criteria that shape the transformation of something from being considered strange to being liked and widely adopted. Personalities who are respected by the society/mass and therefore are models are the most important tools of this transformation. For this reason, the culture industry, since it is the shortest and easiest way to include a product in the consumption process, first of all produces model personalities or "star" individuals with popular nomenclature, and through these, it puts its products on the consumption market. The product is easily accepted through "stars". There are significant differences between being a person respected by society in the traditional sense and being a "star", which is a phenomenon of modern times. In traditional society, reputation is a requirement of being an exceptional personality that is appreciated and admired by the members of the society in line with the value judgements of the society. For example, a person can be a respected artist of the society with his/her long-standing and outstanding achievements. In the traditional mentality and society, being an artist is a characteristic that is a combination of special talent, great labour and outstanding achievement. Today, however, being a "star" does not require special talent, labour and success. When mass media advertise a person as a "star", it is possible to become a "star". In fact, most of the time, a person with no special talent, labour and achievement can suddenly be remembered as a "musician", "singer", "voice artist", "model", "mannequin" .... However, this in no way means that the "artist" or other titles of that person will have a long-lasting continuity. A person can shine in one moment and fade away in the next. For example, a person chosen by the culture industry can become a "star" with a song and then disappear after fulfilling the functions expected of him/her by the culture industry. As no one knew before, no one remembers him/her after he/she fades out. This "star's" being remembered and continuing his/her "stardom" is related to and limited to what the culture industry expects from him/her. There is a linear relationship between the role of the culture industry in producing "stars" and fashion, which is the most important motivational tool of consumption that capitalism wants to make uninterrupted. Because there is a strong relationship between fashion and being widespread. However, although the fact that something is preferred by many people is important for it to be fashionable, this feature may not be enough to ensure that what is desired to be widely consumed is fashionable. An example of this is the torn/worn jeans that are in fashion today. When the blouse was first invented in the USA, it was used by mine workers. 1638 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal The blousins used by the workers and worn out during long periods of hard labour were not considered fashionable in any way. Moreover, despite the fact that they were worn by a large mass of workers. However, as relatively high status groups, especially young people, began to dress more widely, the torn jeans became fashionable. This was done through "star" personalities who were modelled. Through them, young people and even non-young people started to wear torn/worn jeans and this became a widespread consumption behaviour. People could be directed to the desire of owning torn/worn jeans by paying more for them than for the good ones. A similar situation can be said for "old" clothes. In the old times, the torn, worn, partially dismantled clothes that the poor had to wear were not fashionable although they were worn by the poor on a mass level. This condition of those items was a result of unfavourable economic conditions. Today, however, torn, frayed and partially dismantled clothes have become fashionable through role models and individuals with high socio-economic conditions have been made to wear torn and dismantled clothes. Perhaps patched clothes will soon face a similar situation. Of course, if the people or businesses who decide what is fashionable decide to do so.If one of the important references in determining the meaning of fashion is "mod", the other is modus, which means "unformed border" in Latin. Modus contributes to understanding the meaning of fashion as well as its function. As it is known, fashion is something that changes easily and does not remain fixed/the same in any way. In the shortest terms, fashion is something that is temporary. Something becomes fashionab/e only for a certain/limited period of time and then quickly becomes obso/ete. In fact, when something becomes fashionable, the process of becoming obsolete also begins. The idea of obso/escence is what enables a thing to become fashionable and unfashionable, that is, the rapid change that takes place in this process, in other words, the fashion trend to start the next trend. For example, objects physically wear out over time depending on their qualities and usage. This is an expected and familiar situation. However, the traditional mentality and the modern mentality's understanding of obso/escence do not refer to the same meaning. From the point of view of the traditional mentality, the obsolescence of an object is due to the fact that it is physically unable to fulfil its basic function and deteriorates. However, from the point of view of this mentality, the obsolescence of an item does not require that the item be immediately thrown away or considered as "rubbish". The old item can be repaired and used again and again. Understandings that control consumption, such as waste and saving with the limited means available, can contribute to transforming the wornout item and maintaining its functionality, even if it has completed its actual useful life. In this respect, some familiar examples are clothes that are patched and worn, furniture that is repaired 1639 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal and sweaters that are dismantled and put back into use by mopping. It is understandable for elderly individuals with a traditional mentality to continue to keep any item that has lost its function with the understanding that "it will be needed one day". Because from the point of view of this mentality, throwing away items that can be repaired or throwing away objects that have economic value is considered as "rubbish" and is considered as waste. Waste is a behaviour that should be avoided. Therefore, according to this view, every item, even if it is old, has a use value. This is the requirement of the mentality in which consumption is not a value, instead saving is recognised as a value.On the other hand, the meaning attributed to "obsolescence" by the modern mentality, which represents the transition from the old to the new and makes change a fundamental value in this context, is completely different from the meaning attributed by the traditional mentality. In the modern mentality, it is not the case that things lose their physical function, wear out and become unusable. The meaning attributed to obsolescence by the modern mentality is directly related to the course of development of the capitalist mentality. In the early 20th century, as a result of the replacement of the principle of production with the principle of consumption, "spending" rather than "saving" or "preserving" was encouraged, while values such as "frugality" began to be perceived as stinginess. The thrifty, wasteful individuals of the past have been replaced by individuals with the mentality of "I consume, therefore Iexist" and the masses formed by these individuals. Instead of stability, permanence and order, transience and change have become the basic principle. The idea of impermanence and disposability has been developed and reinforced through adverts that manifest themselves at every corner of daily life with calls to bring the old and take the new. Being "disposable" and "discontinuous", which comes with the idea of obsolescence, has become a feature that reveals itself in its full form not only in clothes, household appliances, cars, accessories, furniture and houses, but also in human relations and preferences. The minds are now dominated by a distinction between what is appropriate and inappropriate for the times and conditions. When this idea is engraved in the consciousness with the concepts of "new" and "change", individuals who are motivated by the discourses of infinite freedom of choice can, for a small reason, remove friends, people or relationships that they do not like or that are no longer useful from their agenda and minds, and continue their lives as if they had never happened by opening a new page. As in the Greek philosopher Heraclitus' statement that the only thing that does not change is change itself, change/abandonment is at the centre of the mentality of today's individuals and life in today's societies. 1640 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Fashion And Change Change is a value glorified by today's dominant mentality. Clothes, automobiles, houses, mobile phones, white goods, furniture, physical appearance and even people, friendships, values, emotions, beliefs, which are indicators of the individual's tastes and material power, are objects of change. For today's individual, none of these have the importance and meaning to deserve to stay for a long time. Fashion is an important motivational tool that manages the process. Fashion keeps the desire for change alive through the understanding of obsolescence in a way that can be called continuous. Sociologist Roland Robertson (1938-2022) considered the adoption and spread of fashion as a five-stage process supported by social motivations. These stages consist of the following: 1) The adoption of what will become fashionable by agents, i.e. change leaders, 2) Social visibility and communicability, 3) Harmony within and between social systems, 4) Social cohesion and the market, 5) Becoming obsolete with the emergence of new fashion alternatives. In addition, fashion represents the logic of planned obsolescence. Fashion is not only a necessity for the survival of the capitalist market, but also an important tool for the expansion of capital. Werner Sombart (1863-1941), who analysed the economic dimension of fashion within the capitalist system, defined fashion as the favourite child of capitalism in his work Economy and Fashion (Wirthschaft und Mode) published in 1902. According to him, fashion is a necessity to offer new fields and products to the capitalist market. It is a highly functional mechanism for making profit by making things, ideas, values, lifestyles, attitudes and behaviours, personalities, identities... constantly "obsolete". Within the scope of all these, the main characteristics of the fashion sector can be expressed under fıve headings:Being short-lived: Fashion products are generally short-lived. The life of a fashion product is expressed in weeks or months. Fashion is recognised as a temporary and cyclical phenomenon. For this reason, it is known that the life curve of fashion clothing products is shorter than other industries.High variability: The demand trend for fashion products is rarely constant or linear. Fashion products can be affected by seasons, famous people, trends.Lowpredictability: Due to the variability of demand, it is difficult to make sales and demand projections.Highly motivated buying tendency: Most of the purchasing decisions of consumers are made at the point of purchase. When the consumer encounters the product, he/she is encouraged to buy it.Being similarising: Today, although the fashion industry is multidimensional, multicultural, multicoloured and multivocal, as a result 1641 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal of globalisation, clothing and fashion culture has evolved into a similar structure among countries. In this respect, brands such as Zara, Berschka, Pull&Bear, H&M, Stradivarius, Mango, Vero Moda, TopShop, Koton and Batik function as actors of similarity of appearance.Attitudes and behaviours, preferences and tendencies that can be considered within the scope of fashion have been one of the unchanging features of social life. In all societies, senior executives and the people around them, especially family members, members of the socio- economically high class, and especially women have had different and variable preferences from the majority of the society. Fashion is a sociological phenomenon related to power holders and rich people before the 19th century. In the first quarter of the 20th century, it gained a mass character with a form and scope unprecedented in history. Class fashion has been replaced by consumer fashion. Instead of a single type of fashion determined by the upper classes, a fashion understanding that tends to include all layers of society has emerged. In the 20th century, developments in mass communication technologies led fashion to become widespread and prestigious in a way never seen in any period of history. In the 20th century, the phenomenon of dressing has covered the whole social life in a way that goes beyond culture and has become a part of the material and spiritual dimension of consumer culture. Through mass media, it has become an element that mobilises social change as well as a mirror of social life. However, in addition to fashion shows, fashion blogs and fashion magazines, other channels that are as effective as them have emerged in the dissemination of fashion. One of these channels is fashion magazines. In addition, the internet and social media platforms have assumed important functions in terms of the opportunity to spread fashion trends rapidly and to deliver visual images to wider audiences. Fashion influencers and celebrities who are effective on platforms such as Instagram, YouTube and TikTok popularise a certain body type, clothing style and beauty standards in a short time and have a strong influence on their followers to adopt these idealised images. Scope of Fashion The most basic expression of fashion is recognised as clothing, dress and ornamentation. Clothes are the most classic and basic product of fashion. Being a manifestation of people's personality and character, clothes are an observable form of behaviour. However, although clothes are the most visible form of fashion, fashion is a broader phenomenon. It is related to many different material and non-material contexts. The most important tool and even lever of fashion is advertising. Every day people are bombarded by visual advertisements that encourage them to buy certain products or services, which in turn creates and popularises fashion. 1642 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal However, these images also function as factors that influence attitudes, values, beliefs and behaviour. Fashion is inherently related to material contexts (furniture, architecture and automobiles, etc.) as well as non-material contexts (child-rearing techniques, art appreciation, etc.). In essence, fashion is not only concerned with the appearance of a person's body, but also with their behaviour, thoughts, feelings, emotions, knowledge, speech, agenda, interests... in short, the way they present themselves. For example, making personality analyses based on horoscopes, using slang words or gesticulating while speaking under the influence of some TV series and films can be things that are encountered as fashion elements. In this respect, the words of the famous fashion designer Coco Chanel (1883-1971) are important in terms of expressing the scope of fashion: Fashion is not something that exists only in clothes, fashion is something in the air we breathe. It is a wind, you feel it coming, you smell it. Fashion is about ideas, lifestyles, what is happening. The basis of fashion culture is capitalism, which is driven by an unlimited and irresponsible drive for material profit. The rulers of the capitalist mentality, who deliberately declare the contents of existing wardrobes obsolete and outdated, have succeeded in turning people into slaves dependent on themselves through fashion; they have first and foremost influenced young people and women. Nowadays, even young people who do not have enough money for a bagel to fill their bellies consider following fashion as an indispensable condition and try to follow fashion as much as possible. Young people with no economic means walk around hungry, they feel cold because they have no clothes to protect themselves from the cold, but they try to have something fashionable; sometimes it is perfume, sometimes it is a branded clothing, and lately most of the time it is a mobile phone. Because it is through these that the young person feels his/her existence and makes his/her peers feel it. The modern mentality and lifestyle has placed the human being as the "subject" at the centre of the "God-centred" existence and lifestyle of the previous, traditional period. This subject, on the other hand, manifests the things constructed and characterised by the culture industry in all the units of the system at the centre of which it sits. For this reason, the mass society and its individuals value fragmentation instead of unity and harmony, pleasure and desire instead of reason. In addition, modernity prefers not the sacred but the profane embodied in itself. In this respect, while entering into a conflict with the sacred, it also presents itself as a taboo. This presentation manifests itself most clearly in fashion rituals. For example, the fact that fashion shows are presented in a ritual/ritual atmosphere, that fashion provides its followers with a belonging with transcendental references, that the members of this belonging display the appearance of a "faith community", that they think, dress and live in the same style... points to 1643 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal fashion's effort to create a sacred space around itself. Through fashion, the profane is given a sacred spirit and appearance. For this reason, Barnard's definition that fashionable clothing and clothing items are the most fetishproductsproducedandconsumedin capitalist society is very meaningful. According to Andrew Greeley, an American clergyman, it is enough to visit any car fair today to watch a religious ritual. When one goes to the place where automobiles are exhibited, it will be seen that fashion presenters are treated as people with immunity like clergymen, and the products are treated as aesthetically and ethically indisputable taboos. Conclusion In addition to all these, the following should also be stated: The planned rapid obsolescence of consumer goods through fashion provides capitalist capital with billions of dollars every year. This makes capitalism always strong and effective. It is possible to clearly see how this process works in the individuals of the consumer society who see consumption as the only way of expressing themselves and use the brands they use instead of their identity. It would be misleading to see this as merely a situation that enables consumers to prefer the products they need. This operates through an idea/value that is embedded in the consciousness of consumers in their human relations and perspectives on life, and is reflected in their behaviour. The philosophy of carpe diem, which invites individuals to cut their ties with the past, not to take the future into account and to turn towards the present moment, and to enjoy the moment, drags consumers to further stages and contributes to the establishment of the disposable logic from products to human relations, from nature to working life. 1644 VI.

With these multifaceted functions, they appeal to all segments of the society from the highest income level to the lowest income level and attract everyone's attention. In this respect, they are micro spaces of daily life.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Introduction The Industrial Revolution has an important place in the formation of the modern mentality and lifestyle, to put it in terms of shaping the process, disregarding the philosophical and scientific heritage of several centuries. The Industrial Revolution, which led to many changes in people's mentality and in their individual and social lives, and the urban life that accelerated and intensified thanks to it, significantly changed the production-consumption relations and caused these relations to be reflected in other areas of individual and social life, rather than being limited to the economic fıeld as before. Changes in working life, the emergence of the traffıc problem, new meanings attributed to consumption, the emergence of the concept of "leisure time" and proposals and initiatives regarding its content, the search for alternative spaces for the needs shaped by the new mentality and lifestyle... have been the determinants of radical changes and innovations in the course of humanity. Emergence of Shopping Centres Before the Industrial Revolution, among the places where people's shopping activities were shaped, the agora of Ancient Greece, the market area of the Middle Ages or the city squares are important in terms of the functions they fulfil. In addition to being places where commercial activities were carried out and shopping was carried out to meet needs, they were also places where political or cultural activities were carried out and where individuals socialised extensively. They were the heart of social life. In fact, this situation has never completely ended, and especially city squares, with their increasingly narrower and shallower functions, have maintained their features inherited from history until today, albeit in a diminishing form. However, with the Industrial Revolution, the first signs of change began to be seen in the primary space of production-consumption relations. In the fırst stage, department stores, which can be considered as the pioneers of shopping centres, started to be seen. These stores fulfilled important functions for a while as places where comfortable shopping could be done, where the products offered for sale were offered to the consumer under favourable conditions and exhibited to encourage consumption. The growth of cities, the increase and intensification of the population, the emergence of the traffic problem, the emergence of the concept of leisure time in general and holidays in particular due to the regulations in working life, the emergence of the need to engage in as many activities as possible in limited free time... all these have led to the inadequacy of city centres and the search for alternative spaces has emerged. Although the spaces that were the product of these searches responded to the needs, albeit with difficulty, until the 1950s, this was not found sufficient. Victor Gruen (1903-1980) was the planner of the 1648 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal first shopping centre with its present form and function in the United States based on the existing problems and demands. According to him, there was a need for a place of escape for people who were overwhelmed by the traffic problem and the boredom of daily life. Due to the fact that the city centres had lost their functions to a great extent with the division of life and spatial construction into different activity areas in cities, he thought that there was a need for places where new social activities were concentrated and designed the first shopping mall. In 1954, he designed the first suburban open-air shopping facility called Northland Mall. In addition to shops, it was designed as a complex of apartment blocks, schools and health facilities, with its own large park and lake. This complex was never completed, but the idea of this complex space design was original. Victor Gruen continued to design new spaces with some additions and subtractions. The second mall Gruen designed was the Southdale Shopping Centre in Minnesota. He designed it as an enclosed space for both vendors and consumers, where social activities were carried out together, going beyond mere shopping activities. Others followed. By the mid-1970s he had designed more than fifty shopping centres in the USA. Each space was planned in more detail than the previous ones. Thus, he reached the shopping centre design that brings together the functions that the busy and complex lifestyle of today's modern city makes individuals feel the need or desired to feel in their daily lives under a single homogeneous roof. Structural Features of Shopping Centres As of today, shopping malls, which have become centres of attraction with their many elements, are living centres that host many of the activities that individuals and masses need or feel the need for. These places have become places where the heart of urban life beats with their multifaceted functionality such as shopping, entertainment, eating and drinking, worshipping, doing sports, leisure time, watching movies in the cinema, spending time with friends, spending the weekend with the family, window shopping, socialising, following fashion with their units such as shops, cinema, bank, restaurant, patisserie, cafeteria, hairdresser, pharmacy, place of worship, entertainment or sports venue, playground. With these multifaceted functions, they appeal to all segments of the society from the highest income level to the lowest income level and attract everyone's attention. In this respect, they are micro spaces of daily life.The main factor that is often unrecognised in the functioning of shopping malls is the phenomenon of leisure time, which is a product of the Industrial Revolution. Whileproduction and work were at the forefront in the early days of the Industrial Revolution, leisure time based on consumption was built as an important living space in the following period. Following the Industrial 1649 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Revolution, working time and rest time were completely separated from each other as two separate living spaces. However, in traditional life, working life and rest time were intertwined; there was no such separation. With this separation, the social structure based on production and work was replaced by a new social structure based on consumption and leisure time. Capitalism, which is the subject of the process, while reshaping production and consumption through its own paradigm, has designed that individuals who use their time for production should also have private time for consumption. Non-working time, which is created through regulations on working life, is designed as a fıeld of activity based on consumption. For this reason, leisure time activities have been commodifıed and functioned as a tool of hegemonic planning rather than being seen as a time to spend leisure time resting. Consumption became the main activity of the process. In this respect, thanks to the institution of leisure time built under the conditions of the Industrial Revolution, consumption has ceased to be a means of sustaining life and has become an end in itself. This has functioned as an important means of dominating the understanding that people should live to consume rather than consume to live.Today, the act of shopping and consumption has social and symbolic contents such as having fun, leisure time, acquiring status, achieving an idealised lifestyle and obtaining prestige. In terms of the modern mentality, consumption has emphasised the meanings attributed to products rather than their properties and functions, and in some cases even completely. The "mass society", which is constructed with the help of mass media and is open to all kinds of manipulation, and whose sociality is questionable in every respect, has been transformed into a society of consumption. The consumer society, which is constructed with the desires of large companies engaged in mass production and through the advertising-fashion tools of mass media, gains meaning as the name of an extremely shallow and largely formal structure compared to the natural/real social structure. This structure is a structure whose main function is to consume, where not only consumption commodities but also identities, spaces, lifestyles, cultural elements, images, meanings, values, time and almost everything else are perceived as objects of consumption. Consumption has ceased to be the result of an act of shopping to satisfy mostly physiological needs and has become a phenomenon that is supported and directed through fashion and advertisements in line with the aims of the capitalist economy, and in which consumed objects are used as identity and status indicators. Both the constructor and the supporter of this phenomenon is the capitalist mentality. Just as every society has a culture, a culture has been invented for the consumption society, and unlimited consumption tendencies to obtain the symbols dressed in consumption objects, and the lifestyle shaped around consumption 1650 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal behaviours that diversify every day have formed the basis of this culture. The modern urban individual has become the ideal type of consumption society and consumption culture. This individual consumes in order to have the sense of identity offered to him/her and to live according to who he/she wants to be perceived as.Consumption culture is a necessity of not seeing consumption activity only as the consumption of commodities. Consumption culture refers to a mentality and lifestyle related to the purpose and manner of obtaining the commodities consumed, the way they are used and the norms and value system emerging in this process. The use of an object because of its ability to satisfy a need and being found valuable in this respect is a very normal and routine feature in terms of human behaviour. Here, the subject is the human and the object is the product consumed. However, consumer culture gains meaning as the name of a situation that disrupts this hierarchy. In this case, people become objectified and things become subjectifıed. Karl Marx's (1818-1883) conceptualisations of alienation and fetishism are important as one of the first to recognise this situation. Another social scientist György Lukacs (1885-1971) made a similar evaluation while reaching the concept of reification through what Marx expressed with alienation and fetishism. Whatever the conceptualisations expressing the subversion of the hierarchy in question, what is expressed expresses the differentiation of the connection that should be in the relationship between man and things. In other words, while the thing produced for use becomes the basic reference of a system of values, the human being, who should be the subject, becomes objectified and ordinary. However, the thing that becomes subjective in consumer culture is essentially the thing produced by human beings for human beings. To give an example of how this happens; when a person sees a state-of-the-art technological product, if he starts to see that technological product as a value in itself, as a basic reference that will increase his own value if he owns it, rather than the feature related to the function of that product, this is a problematic relationship and corresponds to the culture of consumption. In Marx's conceptualisation, the person in this situation becomes "alienated" from his/her own essence/humanity, and the object that enables this alienation gains the quality of a fetish. In the same way, the fact that money, which is an intermediary in the purchase of commodities, becomes a measure of value is shaped according to the functioning of the process envisaged by the consumption culture. At this stage, it is meaningful that Ivan Illich (1926-2002) defines consumer society as a type of society in which life is organised around commodities and social progress is measured by the power of access to these commodities, or Zygmunt Bauman considers consumer culture as a type of society in 1651 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal which the exchange value of commodities disappears and the function of commodities as indicators comes to the fore instead of their utility function. Consumption Culture and Shopping Centres For the modern and therefore urban individual, being different from everyone else, and demonstrating this difference with his appearance, especially in terms of clothing and attire, eating and drinking places, the tools and equipment he uses, and the social environment he is in contact with, constitutes one of the targeted goals of the idealised lifestyle. He strives to be different from those around him with the visible brand name of his clothing, the neighbourhood of his residence, the brand and model of his car, the country and region he goes on holiday, the popularity of the food he eats, the subjects he is interested in, his circle of "friends", the way he speaks... This situation leads to an endless struggle to be recognisable, and all their efforts are shaped on the axis of being different and staying different. As a result of the increased accessibility of consumption commodities and the tendency to spread to all segments of the society, the current situation of the socioeconomically upper segments has become questionable, which has necessitated the continuous reconstruction of differentiation tendencies through fashion, which triggers and accelerates being different. The widespread access to all kinds of clothes as a stage of this situation has pushed the privileged segments who tend to be different to expose themselves with a nudity in which only the genitals are covered, or to exhibit behaviours that reveal their differences through appearing in such art activities. The paradox of differentiation and sameness leads to an endless consumption motivation. In this respect, shopping malls function as spaces of the capitalist commodity system cycle that both segregates and replicates.As places where an ostentatious lifestyle is embodied in all its dimensions in accordance with the requirements of the consumption culture, shopping malls make life easier for the members of the consumption culture by offering all the products required by ostentatious symbolic consumption as well as products that will meet all the needs that can be considered as compulsory such as food and clothing. Offering a wide variety of products in different stores that meet all kinds of needs together allows people to shop in accordance with their lifestyles, identities and status. Special security personnel, devices and inspections create a safe environment and provide protection from external factors that may harm individuals. People have the understanding and confidence that they breathe in a highly controlled and disciplined life during their stay there. In shopping centres, it is clear where to enter and exit and what to do. These are dictated to individuals in the form of unwritten rules. In these places where individuals stay as long as they can, showcases create a visual space that they cannot break 1652 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal away from. The perception that the individual can spend his whole life if he wants is successfully dictated. There is something for everyone. People's interests, feelings of pleasure and desires are constantly provoked. In addition to these, the fact that shopping malls offer colourful brands and different lives causes people to be psychologically affected; shopping malls function as a means to get away from external problems. Individuals numb their problems or take a break by visiting the colourful showcases in the shopping malls. In shopping centres, there is virtually "nothing to find", all stores and "needs" are waiting for their customers in magical boxes. Shopping Centres and Religious Rituals The fact that shopping malls have become a centre of attraction of consumption that constantly renews itself and does not lose anything from its attractiveness in this respect has been possible thanks to planning carried out in a highly rational manner. Among the objective, emotional and functional elements that make shopping malls the centres of attraction of consumption culture, the fact that they are gigantic and easily accessible places, their eye- catching showcases that stimulate feelings of need, the fact that they are offered with opportunities to meet many different needs at the same time, and the use of credit card shopping facilities that facilitate spending and transfer payments to the future are important attraction features. In a sense, the roads in shopping centres, which have the appearance and function of a micro city, constantly direct people to the stores depending on the architectural tricks that highlight the showcases of the stores and present them to the attention of the consumer. The arrangement of the space is realised in such a way that the individual will increase the time he/she will spend in the shopping mall and thus, he/she will feel the need by seeing what he/she does not need. The internal flow in the space is realised through labyrinth-like circulation areas, enabling consumers to encounter the maximum number of products and shopping opportunities. The escalators, which are located in the same direction but not end-to-end and used for vertical connection, are planned to allow people to walk around and thus see more stores. What is more important and interesting is that consumption is not directly presented in these spaces. Entertaining activities and shows are attached before and next to the consumption activity, and campaigns presented as special opportunities successfully fulfil the functions of directing consumption. Shopping in shopping centres is no longer just an act of purchasing. Entertainment, aesthetics, image and belonging have become effective elements of purchasing. With the addition of entertainment to the meaning of shopping, the distinction between shopping and entertainment has almost disappeared. Thus, consumption is transformed into an act of pleasure, a recreational activity. 1653 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal With the establishment of shopping centres, shopping has become an effective element of purchases such as entertainment, aesthetics, image and belonging. With the addition of entertainment to the meaning of shopping, the distinction between shopping and entertainment has almost disappeared. A lifestyle is offered to individuals in shopping centres. This is a lifestyle envisaged by capitalism and designed by the culture industry. The masses are directed towards the modern mentality and lifestyle through these places, the relations and transactions in these places. These spaces of production-consumption relations, which seem to put the human being at the centre, but where the intellectuals and representatives of the consumer culture are the subjects and the masses are the objects, are places where rationalism, hedonism, change, individualism, materialism, secularism... appear in accordance with the requirements of modernity. With these characteristics, they are concrete and functional examples of modernity's function of being an "anti-religion religion". Modernity, which is built on anti-religion (Catholicism/Church) and presents itself as a religion in many respects by taking its "enemy" as a model, transforms itself into a "religion of science" in educational institutions, a "religion of pleasure/entertainment" in daily life, or a belief/religion system of "sexuality", "violence", "physical power" ... in different places and environments. In this respect, Ivan Illich was one of the first and important figures to draw attention to the functions of shopping centres outside the production-consumption relationship. While defining the consumer society as a type of society in which life is organised around commodities and social progress is measured by the ability to access these commodities, he emphasised the "slavery of consumption", although the implication of "religion" is also quite strong in this determination. The American sociologist George Ritzer, on the other hand, used the term "religion" directly. As Ritzer expressed in his book Enchanting the Disenchanted World, shopping centres are the "cathedrals" of the "religion of consumption". He had no difficulty in finding traces of the forms and worship of the Abrahamic religions (JudaismChristianity-Islam) in shopping centres. He likened shopping centres to places of pilgrimage. To extend his metaphor a bit; shopping malls function as the place of worship of the modern/secular individual. In the standardised rituals here, it is possible to find traces of the weekly prayers and pilgrimages of the three Abrahamic religions. Individuals who are believers of the religion of consumption have a feeling of spiritual emptiness if they do not visit the shopping centre one day a week, similar to the worship of Jews on Saturday, Christians on Sunday and Muslims on Friday. Due to the conditions of working life, this is usually at the weekend. This situation is important in terms of giving the shopping centre "visit" the form of 1654 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal weekly worship. However, the similarity in question is by no means due to the fact that the visit in question is made once a week, but due to the meaning and function attributed to that "visit". The modern/secular individual, who is restless when he/she does not perform his/her "weekly worshipM, returns home after his/her "worship" in a state of "peace of mind". The relationship of the modern individual with shopping centres is also reminiscent of the pilgrimage rituals of the three Abrahamic religions. In the pilgrimage worship of all three religions, there are rituals such as walking around (tawaf) the object/place of pilgrimage (e.g. the Kaaba), venerating a certain building or object in the centre of the pilgrimage site with respect and love (contemplation/zikr), anointing the building or object in the centre of the pilgrimage site (Hajar al-Aswad) .... The modern individual also walks around the shops in shopping centres, which are the "cathedrals" of the "religion of consumption", admires the shop windows/items (reverence), anoints the objects (touching them, trying them on...) and leaves the place in a "purified" way. Conclusion Shopping centres are the magical places of today. It represents an association in which "magic", which is thrown out of life due to rationality and secularism, the basic principle of modernism, is also activated where necessary. Those who look into its "eyes" fall under its influence and follow it unconsciously. For this reason, George Ritzer (b.1940) likened being in places of consumption such as shopping malls to the situation of a child who imagines himself in a place where everything is made of sugar and can easily reach those candies, and emphasised the fascinating aspect of shopping malls. However, there is also a negative side to this; just like the spooky things, ghosts and witches in the child's imaginary space, there are things in this space that have the potential to turn beautiful dreams into nightmares. These are personal impossibilities that exceed the means and power of purchase and therefore can only be watched, which in turn leads to the destruction of the integrity of the psyche. This castle of dreams, where almost every product and service of the world of consumption can be accessed, represents the realm of nightmares with its unaffordability as well as its accessibility. 1655 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INVESTIGATION OF THE PH EFFECT ON APN POLYMER ABSTRACT The toxic properties of heavy metals necessitate their removal from wastewater for the protection of both the environment and human health. Various methods, including chemical precipitation, membrane filtration, ion exchange, and absorption, are employed for the removal of heavy metal ions in aqueous environments. Heavy metals in aquatic environments, which are a significant contributor to environmental pollution, are commonly found in wastewater from mining, metal, and chemical industries. It has been observed that the mixing of wastewater streams with natural water sources can disrupt the ecological balance and have harmful effects on living organisms. Among heavy metals, copper is a metal that has been extensively researched due to its toxic properties.In this study, a main stock solution was prepared using copper (II) nitrate trihydrate, which is also known as Cu(NO3)2.3(H2O). The stock solution was prepared at a concentration of 1000 ppm in 250 mL. The prepared stock solution was diluted and transferred into volumetric flasks, and calibration curves were prepared. The adsorption of Cu(II) was investigated using APN polymer. 0.01 g of APN polymer was weighed into 20 mL vials. Subsequently, 1000 ppm Cu2+ solution was added to the vials, and the solutions were left at room temperature for 24 hours. Measurements were taken at 312 nm using UV-VIS absorption spectroscopy. The results indicated that the optimal pH for APN polymer was 4. Key words: Heavy metals, Cu(II), APN polymer, Adsorption, UV-VIS spectroscopy, pH 1659 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Atık sularda tespit edilen her türlü madde kimi zaman eser miktarda kimi zaman da belirli bir derişim üzerinde sağlık için zararlıdır. Zehirlilik etkisine sahip maddeler düşük konsantrasyonlarda bulunmaları halinde bile insan sağlığına zarar vererek hastalıklara ve hatta ölümlere neden olabilirler. Eser miktarda bile riskli olan bu maddeler arasında en önemli grubu ağır metaller oluşturur. Cd, Cr, Cu, Co, Pb ve Zn elementleri ağır metallere örnek olarak verilebilir.Doğadaki su kaynaklarının ağır metal kirliliği; insanlara, çevredeki diğer hayvanlara ve bitkilere toksik etkisi nedeniyle zarar vermektedir. Ağır metal numunelerinin ana kaynakları genellikle madencilik, metal kaplama, tekstil, kimya, otomotiv ve elektrikli cihaz imalatı gibi birçok endüstriden gelmektedir (Zalloum ve ark., 2008). adsorpsiyon, kimyasal çökeltme, Şekil 1.1: Atık sularda bulunan ağır metaller Toksik metal iyonlarının uzaklaştırılmasında fitoekstraksiyon, ters ozmoz, ultrafiltrasyon, elektrodiyaliz, solvent ekstraksiyonu ve iyon değişimi gibi birçok yöntem kullanılmaktadır. Adsorpsiyon, atık suların arıtımında uygulanabilen yüksek verimliliği, uygun hızı ve çalışma kolaylığı nedeniyle ağır metallerin gideriminde en çok tercih edilen yöntemlerden biridir. Çalışmamızda, atık sularda sıkça karşılaşılan ağır metallerden biri olan Cu(II) iyonunun giderimi adsorpsiyon yöntemiyle gerçekleştirilmiştir.Cu(II) iyonları canlı organizmaların yapısında ve vücut fonksiyonlarında önemli yere sahiptir. Fakat fazla miktarda Cu(II) iyonuna maruz kalınması durumunda olumsuz etkiler gözlemlenir. Aşırı Cu(II) iyonu alımı olumsuz etkileri; hepatit, karaciğer sirozu, böbrek 1660 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal hastalığı, anemi, kemik bozuklukları ve parkinson gibi bir dizi hastalıkla ilişkilendirilir. USEPA tarafından belirlenen içme suyunda izin verilen maksimum limit 1,30 mg/L'dir. WHO'nun içme suyundaki Cu(II) iyonları için kısıtlaması ise 0,05 mg/L'dir. Bu nedenle Cu(II) iyonlarının tespiti ve uzaklaştırılması, su kalitesinin ve insan sağlığının kontrolünün sağlanması açısından önemlidir (ABD Çevre Koruma Ajansı Raporu, 2004). Atık su örneklerindeki Cu(II) iyonlarının incelenmesi ve adsorplanmasında uygulanabilecek yöntemlerin geliştirilmesi büyük önem taşımaktadır. Özellikle bu örneklerin spektrofotometrik yöntemler kullanılarak belirlenmesi; basitliği, kolay kullanımı ve düşük maliyetli teknolojilerin kullanılması nedeniyle pratik açıdan birçok avantaja sahiptir (Bereli ve ark., 2021). Tüm bunlar göz önüne alındığında sulardaki atık maddelerin temizlenmesi düşüncesi daha da yaygınlaşmaktadır. Çalışmamızda APN polimeri ile Cu+2 elementinin adsorpsiyonunu inceleyerek pH bağlı olarak nasıl çalıştığı gözlemlenmiştir. 2.ARAŞTIRMA VE BULGULAR 2.1.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INVESTIGATION OF THE TEMPERATURE EFFECT ON APN POLYMER ABSTRACT The issue of environmental pollution has become a significant global concern, particularly in relation to the need for a clean and healthy future. In the context of the industrial and technological era, a number of factors have contributed to the contamination of water sources, including existing production cycles, population density increases, unplanned urbanisation, and the destruction of natural areas. The growing needs of people and advancements in industrialisation have also led to an increase in the amount of wastewater, which in turn has placed a greater burden on the environment in terms of heavy metals. Mining, metal industry, petroleum refineries, leather industry, textile industry, and automotive industry are among the primary sources contributing to heavy metal pollution. Additionally, domestic wastewater, leachate from landfills, and acid rain also contribute to increased concentrations of heavy metals in wastewater. In this study, a main stock solution was prepared using copper (II) nitrate trihydrate solid. The copper(II) nitrate trihydrate (Cu(NO3)2·3(H2O)) was employed to prepare the stock solution, which was prepared at a concentration of 1000 ppm and a volume of 250 mL. Once the Cu(NO3)2·3(H2O) solid had been dissolved in a beaker, the pH 4 water prepared in a 250 mL volumetric flask was added. Subsequently, 0.01 grams of APN polymer were weighed into 20 mL vials, and 10 mL of the prepared stock solution was added to them. The performance of the APN polymer was evaluated over time at temperatures of 4°C, 25°C, 45°C, and 65°C. The results demonstrated that the APN polymer exhibited optimal performance at 25°C.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Son zamanlarda, atık su arıtma sistemleri, endüstriyel atıklardaki toksik ve kanserojen ağır metallerle ilişkili sağlık ve çevre risklerini azaltmak ve ortadan kaldırmak amacıyla geliştirilmiştir. Endüstriyel işlemler sonucunda ortaya çıkan atık suları temizlemek için en yaygın tercih edilen yöntem, yüksek etkinlik, düşük maliyetler ve kolay işletilebilirlik gibi özellikleri nedeniyle adsorpsiyon yöntemidir (Hamis ve ark., 2024). Endüstriyel atık sulardaki zehirli ağır metaller hem insan sağlığı hem de su ekosistemi için önemli bir tehdit oluşturabilir. Atık sular genellikle tekstil, kimya, petrol, kozmetik, plastik, gıda ve kâğıt imalatı gibi çeşitli endüstriler tarafından üretilmektedir (Lan ve ark., 2022). Polimer malzemeler (akıllı adsorbanlar) ağır metallerin sudan gideriminde önemli yere sahiptir. Bunlar sıcaklık, pH, ışık şiddeti, çözeltinin iyonik kuvveti ve manyetik alan gibi çeşitli çalışma koşullarına farklı tepki verir. Yoğunluğu 4,5 g/ cm3'ten fazla olan metaller (altın (Au), gümüş (Ag), bakır (Cu), cıva (Hg), kurşun (Pb), kadmiyum (Cd) vb.) ağır metal olarak adlandırılır. İnsan vücudunda her ne kadar Cu(II) gerekli bir iyon olsa da, vücuttaki fazla Cu(II) yavaş tepki, anemi, akciğer ödemi, halsizlik, sarılık ve ülser gibi semptomlara neden olabilir. Ağır metal iyonları insan vücudunda dolaşım sistemine girdikten sonra bazı proteinler, enzimler ve biyomoleküller ile etkileşime girerek bunların inaktivasyonuna neden olurlar (Ma ve ark., 2023). Ayrıca bazı organlarda zamanla birikebilir ve sonuçta insan vücudunda ağır metal iyonlarının kronik zehirlenmesine neden olabilir. Bu yüzden sulardaki atık maddelerin temizlenmesi düşüncesi daha da yaygınlaşmakta ve önem kazanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada APN polimeri ile Cu elementinin adsorpsiyonunu sıcaklığa bağlı olarak nasıl çalıştığı araştırılmıştır. 1669 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INVESTIGATION OF THE HTERT GENE MNS16A VNTR VARIANT IN LUNG, BREAST AND GASTROINTESTINAL CANCER PATIENTS Abstract Lung cancer (LC) is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. It is a malignant lung tumor, also known as lung carcinoma, characterized by uncontrolled cell growth in lung tissues originating from epithelial cells. Breast cancer (BC) is both the most common and the most common cause of cancer deaths among women, and its incidence and mortality increase with age. Approximately 5% to 10% of these cases are considered to be hereditary. Gastrointestinal system (GIS) cancers represent more than a quarter of global cancer cases and include tumors of the colon, rectum, stomach, pancreas, esophagus, anus, gall bladder, liver and bile duct. Telomerase reactivation and human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) gene expression are hallmarks of the unlimited proliferative potential of cancer cells. The hTERT gene is located in the 5p15.33 region and encodes a ribonucleoprotein enzyme that elongates chromosome ends that shorten during cell division. Mutations occurring in the coding regions of the hTERT gene have significant effects on telomerase activity and telomere length. This study aimed to determine whether the MNS16A variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) variant of the hTERT gene is associated with solid tumors (LC, BC and GIS cancers) in the Turkish population. A total of 264 volunteers, including 95 patients with LC, 36 BC, 48 patients diagnosed with GIS cancer, and 85 healthy controls, were included in the study. hTERTMNS16A-VNTR analysis was performed by PCR method and analyzed in agarose gel electrophoresis. When cancer patients diagnosed with LC, BC and GIS and healthy controls were compared in terms of genotype and allele frequencies, no statistically significant difference was detected in the genotype and allele frequency of the hTERT -MNS16A-VNTR variant. Our study is the first study in the literature to examine the hTERT-MNS16A-VNTR relationship in three different cancer types and shows that this variant may not be associated with LC, BC and GIS in the Turkish population. However, studies to be conducted in larger study groups and patient groups of different ethnicities will provide a more detailed elucidation of the relationship between cancer and hTERT-MNS16A-VNTR.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Akciğer kanseri (AK) dünya çapında kansere bağlı ölümlerin önde gelen nedenidir. AK için en önemli risk faktörü, akciğer kanserine bağlı ölümlerin %75-80'inden sorumlu olan sigaradır (Cersosimo R. J.,2002). Akciğer karsinomu olarak da bilinen ve epitelyal hücrelerden köken alarak akciğer dokularında kontrolsüz hücre büyümesi ile karakterize edilen kötü huylu bir akciğer tümörüdür. Küçük hücreli akciğer kanseri ve küçük hücreli dışı akciğer kanseri olmak üzere iki geniş kategoriye ayrılır. Küçük hücreli akciğer kanseri, nöroendokrin özellikler sergileyen hücrelerden türetilen oldukça kötü huylu bir tümördür ve akciğer kanseri vakalarının %15' ini oluşturur. Vakaların geri kalan %85' ini oluşturan küçük hücreli dışı akciğer kanseri, adenokarsinom, skuamöz hücreli karsinom ve büyük hücreli karsinom olmak üzere 3 ana patolojik alt tipe ayrılır. Adenokarsinom tek başına tüm akciğer kanseri vakalarının %38,5'ini oluşturmaktadır (Dela Cruz et al., 2011). Çevresel faktörler ve somatik olaylar, sporadik akciğer kanserinin gelişimine katkıda bulunan başlıca faktörlerdir. Ayrıca aile öyküsü ve genetik faktörlerde akciğer kanserinin gelişiminde rol oynamaktadır (Kanwal et al., 2017). Meme kanseri (MK), kadınlarda en sık görülen kanserdir ve küresel olarak kadınlar arasında kansere bağlı ölümlerin önde gelen nedenidir (Fisusi et al., 2019). MK genetik ve çevresel faktörlerin rol oynadığı heterojen bir hastalıktır (Barzaman et al., 2020). MK vakalarının çoğunluğu adenokarsinomlardır; adenokarsinom vakalarının %85'i göğüs kanallarından ve %15'i lobüler epitelden kaynaklanmaktadır (Katsura et al., 2022). MK vakalarının yaklaşık %510'u kalıtsal olarak kabul edilmekte ve bilinen meme kanseri genleri bunların %3-4'ünü oluşturmaktadır. Bilinen meme kanseri genlerinin yanı sıra, genom çapında ilişkilendirme çalışmaları (GWAS'ler) ile meme kanseri riskiyle ilişkili 170'den fazla genetik varyant tanımlamıştır (Huss et al., 2018). Gastrointestinal sistem (GİS) kanserleri tüm kanser teşhislerinin yaklaşık %20'sini oluşturur ve dünya çapında kanser ölümlerinin %22,5'inden sorumludur (Kuntz et al., 2021). GİS kanserleri kolon, rektum, mide, pankreas, yemek borusu, anüs, safra kesesi, karaciğer ve safra kanalı tümörlerini içermektedir. GİS kanserlerinin farklı türlerinin altında yatan nedenler farklılık göstermekle birlikte temel risk faktörlerinden bazıları arasında sigara içmek, aşırı alkol tüketimi, artan yaş, viral ve bakteriyel enfeksiyonlar, kronik pankreatit ve obezite yer almaktadır (Link et al., 2013). Bu kanserlerin çoğu sporadiktir. Ancak bazı hastalar ailede GİS kanser öyküsü olması nedeniyle yüksek risk altındadır (Malkani et al., 2023). Telomeraz reaktivasyonu ve insan telomeraz ters transkriptaz (hTERT) gen ekspresyonu kanser hücrelerinin sınırsız çoğalma potansiyelinin ayırt edici özelliğidir (Hofer et al., 2011). hTERT 1681 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal geni 5p15.33 bölgesinde bulunur ve hücre bölünmesiyle kısalan kromozom uçlarını uzatan bir ribonükleoprotein enzimini kodlar. hTERT geninin kodlama bölgelerinde meydana gelen mutasyonların telomeraz aktivitesi ve telomer uzunluğu üzerinde önemli etkileri vardır (Anwar et al., 2021). MNS16A gen varyantı, hTERT genindeki ekson 16'nın aşağısında bulunur ve bir transkripsiyon faktörü bağlama bölgesini barındıran CAT trinükleotidi ile ayrılan 23 bp'lik çekirdek tandem tekrarlarını oluşturur. VNTR alellerine göre MNS16A varyantları, farklı kanser türlerine sahip bireylerde incelenmiştir (Huda et al., 2021). Bu çalışmada hTERT geninin MNS16A değişken sayı tandem tekrarı (VNTR) varyantının Türk popülasyonundaki solid tümörlerde (AK, MK ve GİS Kanseri) bir ilişkisinin olup olmadığının belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Materyal ve Metod Çalışmaya 95 AK, 36 MK, 48 GİS Kanseri tanısı almış hasta ile 85 sağlıklı kontrol olmak üzere toplam 264 gönüllü birey dahil edilmiştir. Bireylerden alınan periferik kandan lökosit izolasyonu gerçekleştirilmiştir. Elde edilen lökositlerden ticari kit ile üreticinin yönergeleri doğrultusunda genomik DNA izolasyonu yapılmıştır. (ELK Biotech DNA izolasyon kiti). hTERT-MNS16A-VNTR analizi PCR yöntemiyle gerçekleştirilmiştir. Analiz edilecek olan bölge için uygun primerler kullanılarak uygun PCR koşullarında DNA örnekleri çoğaltılmıştır. Ardından örnekler jel elektroforezinde yürütülerek, UV ışık altında genotiplemeleri yapılmıştır. L alleli 302 bp ve 332 bp, S alleli ise 243 bp ve 272 bp uzunluklarında bantlar göstermiştir (Anwar et al., 2021). İstatistiksel analizler SPSS (versiyon 29.0) istatistiksel analiz yazılımı kullanılarak yapılmıştır. İncelenen varyantın genotip dağılımları, Hardy-Weinberg dengesi (HWE) açısından ve ki-kare testleri ile analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular AK, MK ve GİS kanseri tanısı almış hastalar ile sağlıklı kontroller genotip ve allel frekansları açısından karşılaştırıldığında hTERT-MNS16A-VNTR varyantının genotip ve allel frekansında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık saptanmamıştır. Bu varyant için hem hasta hem de sağlıklı kontrol grubunda HWE’den (Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium) sapma bulunmamaktadır. 1682 VI.

Hastalar ve sağlıklı kontroller genotip/allel frekansları açısından karşılaştırıldığında; hTERT-MNS16A-VNTR varyantının genotip ve allel frekansında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık olmadığı saptandı. Akciğer kanserinde yapılan bir çalışmada 53 akciğer kanseri hastası ve 72 sağlıklı kontrolde hTERT-MNS16A-VNTR varyantı değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışmada LL genotipi SS+LS genotipi ile karşılaştırıldığında yaş, cinsiyet, etnik köken ve sigara içme durumuna göre iki kattan fazla akciğer kanseri riskiyle ilişkilendirilmiş fakat genel olarak akciğer kanseri hastaları sağlıklı kontroller ile kıyaslandığında genotip frekansı açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmamıştır (Wang et al., 2003). Güneydoğu İran popülasyonunda 266 meme kanseri hastası ve 225 sağlıklı kontrolün dahil edildiği bir çalışmada ise LS genotipinin, LL ile karşılaştırıldığında meme kanseri riskini azalttığı gösterilmiştir. Ayrıca tümör evresi, tümör derecesi, östrojen ve progesteron reseptörleri, tümör boyutu ve insan büyüme faktörü reseptörü 2 dahil olmak üzere klinikopatolojik parametreler arasında anlamlı bir ilişki gözlenmemiştir (Hashemi et al., 2014). Hofer ve ark. Kafkas kökenli 1330 kolorektal kanser hastası ve 1822 sağlıklı kontrolü dahil ettikleri çalışmalarında SS alelini kolorektal kanser riski ile ilişkilendirmişlerdir. hTERT-MNS16A-VNTR SS alelinin kolorektal kanser riskinin değerlendirilmesi için potansiyel bir biyobelirteç olabileceğini belirtmişlerdir ( Hofer et al., 2011). Çalışmamız üç farklı kanser türünde hTERT-MNS16A-VNTR ilişkisinin incelendiği literatürdeki ilk çalışma olup bu varyantın Türk popülasyonunda AK, MK ve GİS kanseri ile ilişkili olmayabileceğini göstermektedir. Ancak, daha büyük çalışma grupları ve farklı etnik kökenli hasta gruplarında yapılacak çalışmalar kanser ile Htert-MNS16A-VNTR ilişkisinin daha ayrıntılı olarak aydınlatılmasını sağlayacaktır. 1684 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal MOLECULAR MECHANISMS OF PYROPTOSIS AND ITS RELATIONSHIP WITH DISEASES Abstract Pyroptosis; It is a newly learned type of programmed cell death due to its close relationship with immunity and disease. It consists of the words "pyro", which means fever caused by inflammation, and "ptosis", which means shedding/falling, as in other programmed cell deaths. Although it shows some similar characteristics with apoptosis, it differs from other programmed cell deaths with some morphological features. Pyroptosis depends on inflammatory caspases and is seen in cell death resulting from inflammatory diseases. Apart from inflammatory diseases, pyroptosis is a type of cell death used in cardiovascular diseases, central nervous system diseases and cancer. Considering the pyroptosis pathways, it is used by both innate and adaptive immune systems. As a result of studies on the functions of Gasdermin family members in different tissues, Gasdermin-D (GSDMD) was identified as the most important executor of pyroptosis. There are at least two pathways in the activation of pyroptosis -mechanisms. There are components that have inhibitory and activating effects on both canonical and non-canonical pathways in the execution of pyroptosis processes. In addition, the own negative feedback regulation mechanism of pyroptosis can prevent inflammation from occurring in time In the activation of pyroptosis, inflammatory cytokines are secreted from the pores formed in the cell membrane by the breakdown of GSDMD from the gasdermin family. In disorders of this mechanism, which also interacts with cell cycle control pathways, cell death cannot occur and progressive diseases such as inflammatory diseases and cancer may be triggered. Recent literature has shown that pyroptosis has a very important role in inflammatory conditions such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer, neurological diseases and metabolic diseases, suggesting that targeting cell death may be a potential intervention for treatment. In this study, the molecular mechanisms of pyroptosis and the latest developments in its relationship with various diseases will be reviewed. Keywords: Pyroptosis, Molecular Mechanism, Human Disease. 1688 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Piroptoz Piroptoz; inflamasyondan kaynaklanan ateş anlamına gelen “pyro” ve dökülme/düşme anlamına gelen “ptosis”’den oluşmaktadır. Piroptoz ve apoptoz arasında DNA hasarı ve kromatin yoğunlaşması gibi bazı benzerlikler vardır (Yu et al.,2021). Piroptoz, apoptoz ile benzer bazı karakteristik özellikler (DNA hasarı, nükleer yoğunlaşma ve kaspaz bağımsızlığı) göstermesine rağmen sahip olduğu bazı morfolojik özellikler ile diğer programlanmış hücre ölümlerinden ayrılmaktadır. Piroptotik hücrelerde, DNA parçalanması rastgele olurken çekirdek sağlam kalmaktadır (Fang et al.,2020). İnflamatuar programlanmış hücre ölümünün bir biçimi olarak piroptozun birincil özelliği, gasdermin protein ailesinin N-terminal alanlarına bağlı olan membran gözenek oluşumudur. Bu alanlar sıklıkla aktive edilmiş kaspaz ailesi tarafından bölünmekte, bu da hücre şişmesine, yırtılmaya ve IL-1β (interlökin-1β), IL-18 (interlökin-18) ve sitoplazmik içeriklerin dışarı akışına yol açmaktadır. Gasdermin ailesi üyelerinin farklı dokulardaki fonksiyonları üzerine yapılan çalışmalar sonucunda Gasdermin D (GSDMD) piroptozun en önemli yürütücüsü olarak tanımlanmıştır (You et al.,2022). Piroptoz Mekanizmaları Piroptoz yolakları hem doğal hem de adaptif bağışıklık sistemleri ile ilişkilidir. Piroptoz mekanizmalarının tetikleyicisi olarak görülen iki yolak vardır. Bunlar; Kaspaz-1’e bağımlı NLR (nükleotid oligomerizasyon alanı benzeri reseptör) aile üyelerinin katıldığı kanonik yolak ve Kaspaz-11/4/5’in aracılık ettiği kanonik olmayan yolaktır (Şekil 1) (Zheng et a.,2021). Şekil 1. Piroptozda kanonik ve kanonik olmayan yolak (Lin et al., 2020). 1689 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Kanonik Yolak Kaspaz-1'in aktivasyonu, klasik yolak olarak da bilinen kanonik yolağın özelliğidir. Kaspaz-1 aracılı piroptozun kanonik inflamatuar yolu, doğuştan gelen bağışıklık sisteminde kritik bir mekanizmayı temsil eder (Xu et al., 2022). Kaspaz-1, patojenik mikroorganizmaların enfeksiyonuna karşı bir savunma mekanizması olarak doğal bağışıklık sisteminin önemli bir parçasıdır. Kanonik piroptotik ölüm yolağına aktif kaspaz-1’in GSDMD’i bölmesi ve IL-1β ile IL-18 salınımının gerçekleşmesiyle oluşan inflamazom yapısı aracılık etmektedir. Kaspaz-1, çoklu kanonik inflamatuar ligandlar tarafından başlatılır ve piroptozu tetikler. İnflammasomlar, inflamatuar yanıtları düzenleyen ve konakçının antimikrobiyal savunmasını koordine eden çoklu protein sinyal platformlarıdır. Ek olarak, inflamatuarların mikrobiyal olmayan hastalıklarla da ilişkilendirildiği görülmüştür. Önemli kanıtlar, inflamatuar ve bununla ilişkili sitokinlerin, tümör oluşumunda proliferasyon, istila ve metastaz gibi kritik roller oynadığını göstermektedir. İnflamatuar düzenek, patojenle ilişkili moleküler modelleri (PAMP'ler) ve tehlikeyle ilişkili moleküler modelleri (DAMP'ler) tanıyan sitoplazmik model tanıma reseptörleri (PRR'ler) ile başlar (Pan et al., 2022). Kanonik Olmayan Yolak Gram-negatif bakterilerin çoğu kanonik olmayan inflamatuar yolu aktive eder. Klasik olmayan sinyal yoluna insanlarda kaspaz-4 ve kaspaz-5 ve farelerde kaspaz-11 aracılığı ile gerçekleşir. Bu kaspazlar doğrudan lipopolisakarite (LPS) bağlanarak aktive edilebilir. Aktive edilmiş kaspaz-4/5/11, piroptozu teşvik etmek için GSDMD'yi ayırır. Bununla birlikte kaspaz-4/5/11, pro-IL-18/pro-IL-1β'yı parçalayamaz ancak GSDMD'yi parçalayabilir, bu da K+ akışına ve NLRP3/kaspaz-1 yolu aktivasyonuna neden olabilir ve sonuçta olgunlaşmasına ve IL-18 ve IL1β salınmasına yol açabilir (Liu et al., 2024). Ek olarak, kanonik olmayan inflamatuarın NLRP3 inflamatuarını da aktive edebilmesi, kanonik olmayan yolun kanonik yolla ilişkili olduğunu düşündürmektedir (Huang et al., 2023). Piroptoz ve Hastalıklarla İlişkisi İnflamatuar hastalıklar dışında piroptoz; kardiyovasküler hastalıklar, merkezi sinir sistemi hastalıkları, metabolik hastalıklar ve tümörler ile de ilişkilendirilmiştir (Yu et al.,2021). Kardiyovasküler Hastalıklarda Piroptoz Yapılan çalışmalar, kardiyovasküler hastalıkların ortaya çıkmasının hücre ölümüyle yakından ilişkili olduğunu göstermiştir; bu da hücre ölümünü hedeflemenin kardiyovasküler hastalıkların tedavisi için etkili bir müdahale olduğunu düşündürmektedir. Piroptoz çoklu kardiyovasküler hastalıkların ortaya çıkmasını teşvik eder. Enflamatuar aracılı piroptoz, ateroskleroz, miyokard 1690 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal enfarktüsü, hipertansiyon ve kalp hipertrofisi dahil olmak üzere birçok kardiyovasküler hastalığın patogenez süreçlerinde rol oynar (Şekil 2) (Jin et al., 2023). Şekil 2. Piroptoz ve kardiyovasküler hastalıklar (Jin et al., 2023). 1.) Piroptoz ve Ateroskleroz Ateroskleroz, esas olarak endotel hasarını, lipid birikimini, makrofaj aktivasyonunu, fagositozu, inflamatuar yanıtı, köpük hücre oluşumunu, oksidatif modifikasyonları ve düz kas hücre göçünü içeren inflamatuar bir hastalıktır (Song et al., 2022). Aterosklerozun oluşması ve gelişmesi ve plakların yırtılması, endotel hücreleri, düz kas hücreleri ve makrofajlar dahil olmak üzere vasküler hücrelerin yaralanmasıyla ilişkilidir. Ateroskleroz gelişiminde birçok risk faktörü rol oynamaktadır, ancak mekanizmalar tam olarak anlaşılamamıştır. Son araştırmalar, endotelyal hücreler, makrofajlar ve düz kas hücreleri dahil olmak üzere aterosklerozla ilişkili hücrelerde piroptozu tetikleyen çoklu risk faktörlerinin olduğunu göstermiştir. (Lin et al., 2022). Çok sayıda çalışma piroptozun aterosklerozun gelişiminde ve ilerlemesinde rol oynadığını ve aterosklerozdaki üç temel hücrenin (vasküler endotel hücreleri, makrofajlar ve vasküler düz kas hücreleri) piroptozuyla yakından ilişkili olduğunu ortaya çıkarmıştır (Yu et al., 2021).Endotel hücreler kardiyovasküler homeostazın korunması için gereklidir ve piroptoz, endotel fonksiyon bozukluğuna ve bütünlük kaybına yol açarak ateroskleroz patogenezine katkıda bulunur. Kolesterol kristali, oksitlenmiş düşük yoğunluklu lipoprotein (ox-LDL) gibi aterosklerotikle ilişkili çok sayıda risk faktörünün endorel hücre piroptozuna neden olduğu 1691 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal bulunmuştur. Kolesterol kristalleri, aterosklerotik plak hassasiyetinin iyi bilinen önemli bir patolojik belirtecidir; çalışmalar, kolesterol kristalinin, endotel hücrelerde inflamasyonun aktivasyonunu ve ardından piroptozu indükleyerek aterosklerozu desteklediğini göstermiştir. Ox-LDL, hem ateroskleroz hem de piroptozda yer alan bir risk faktörüdür ve ateroskleroz ile piroptoz arasındaki ilişkiyi gösterir (Song et al., 2022). 2.) Piroptoz ve Miyokard Enfarktüsü Miyokard enfarktüsü, miyokard dokusunun ani iskemik ölümü olarak tanımlanır. Klinik bağlamda, miyokard enfarktüsü genellikle hassas bir plağın yırtılmasının neden olduğu koroner damarın trombotik tıkanmasından kaynaklanır (Frangogiannis, 2015). Çalışmalar piroptozun miyokard ölümüne katkıda bulunduğunu ve miyokard enfarktüsü patolojik sürecine dahil olduğunu göstermiştir (Liu et al., 2021). İnterferon düzenleyici faktör (IRF) 2, GSDMD) kaynaklı piroptoz için gerekli olan, IRF ailesine ait bir transkripsiyon faktörüdür. Miyokardiyal hücre piroptozunun azaltılması, miyokard enfarktüsünün neden olduğu kalp hasarına ve kalp fonksiyon bozukluğuna karşı koruma sağlar. GSDMD aracılı kardiyomiyositlerin ve kardiyak fibroblast piroptozunun miyokard enfarktüsü patogenezinde önemli bir rol oynamaktadır (Li et al., 2022). Kanserde Piroptoz Piroptoz, IL-1 ve IL-18 gibi inflamatuar sitokinlerin salınımını indükler; bu da tümör infiltrasyonunu arttırarak tümör oluşumu ve metastaz olasılığını teşvik ederek inflamatuar bir ortamı indükleyebilir (Xia et al.,2019). Ortaya çıkan kanıtlar piroptoz ve kanser arasında karmaşık bir ilişkiyi ortaya çıkarmıştır. Bir yandan inflamatuar hücre ölümü olarak piroptoz, tümörün çoğalması için rahat bir ortam sağlarken öte yandan piroptozun aşırı aktivasyonu, tümör hücrelerinin gelişimini engelleyebilir. Piroptoz hemen hemen tüm kanser türlerinde meydana gelir ve kanserlere karşı, tümör oluşumunu güçlendirebilen veya kısıtlayabilen etki gösterir (Wang et al., 2021). 1.) Piroptoz ve Kolorektal Kanser Kolorektal kanser, dünyadaki ikinci en ölümcül kanser ve üçüncü en kötü huylu tümördür (Liu et al., 2022). Kronik inflamasyonun kolorektal kanserin kritik patojenik faktörlerinden biri olduğu, yani bunun inflamatuar ile ilişkili bir tümör olduğu bilinmektedir. Yüksek inflamatuar belirteçlere sahip inflamatuar bağırsak hastalığı olan hastalarda kolorektal kanser riski önemli ölçüde artmaktadır (Tang et al., 2020). GSDMC' nin down regülasyonu, kolorektal kanser hücrelerinin proliferasyonunda ve kolorektal kanser hücrelerinde önemli azalmalara yol açarken, GSDMC aşırı ekspresyonu hücre proliferasyonunu teşvik etmektedir. Tümör oluşumu, 1692 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GSDMC' nin kolorektal kanserde umut verici bir terapötik hedef olabileceğini düşündürmektedir (Yang et al., 2023). GSDMD ise, karsinoma hücrelerinde down regüle edilirken, normal kolorektal epitelyal hücrelerde aşırı eksprese edilmiştir (You et al., 2021). 2.) Piroptoz ve Meme Kanseri Meme kanseri dünya çapında kadınlarda kanser morbidite ve mortalitesinin önde gelen nedenidir (Chen et al., 2023). Son çalışmalar, NLRP3 inflamatuar aracılı hücre ölümünün meme kanserinde meydana geldiğini göstermiştir. Tümör baskılayıcı DRD2' nin meme kanserinde piroptozu tetiklediği gösterilmiştir. Ayrıca Sisplatin gibi bazı yaygın kemoterapötik ajanların da meme kanserinde piroptozu indüklediği bulunmuştur (You et al., 2022). Meme kanserlerinde yüksek düzeyde GSDMB, tümörün ilerlemesi ile ilişkilidir ve GSDMB' nin aşırı ekspresyonu, HER-2 (epidermal büyüme faktörü reseptörü 2) 'nin hedefe yönelik tedavisine zayıf yanıtın göstergesidir. Bu, GSDMB' nin tümörler için yeni bir prognostik belirteç olabileceği anlamına gelmektedir (Gámez-Chiachi et al., 2022). Ayrıca yapılan başka çalışmalar ile yukarı regüle edilmiş GSDMC ekspresyonu, meme kanseri hastalarında genel sağkalımın kötü olmasıyla ilişkilendirilmiştir (Yang et al., 2023). 3.) Piroptoz ve Akciğer Kanseri Akciğer neoplazmaları dünya çapında kanser insidansı ve mortalitesinin önde gelen nedenidir (Thandra et al., 2021). Piroptoz sürecine katılan birçok molekül, akciğer kanserinin oluşumu ve gelişimi ile yakından ilişkilidir. Çalışmalar, küçük hücreli dışı akciğer kanserinde GSDMD' nin ekspresyon seviyesinin çevredeki akciğer dokularından önemli ölçüde daha yüksek olduğunu göstermiştir. Ayrıca, GSDMD ekspresyonu tümör boyutu, metastaz evresi ve yüksek agresif özelliklerle ilişkilidir. GSDMD' nin akciğer adenokarsinomunun bağımsız bir prognostik belirteci olduğu düşünülmektedir (Liu et al., 2023). Ayrıca GSDMD' nin susturulması, küçük hücreli dışı akciğer kanserinde EGFR/Akt sinyal yolunu zayıflatarak tümör proliferasyonunu inhibe etmektedir (Gao et al., 2018). 4.) Piroptoz ve Mide Kanseri Mide kanseri, dünya çapında en sık görülen malignitelerden biridir ve kansere bağlı ölümlerin dördüncü önde gelen nedenidir. Mide kanseri hem çevresel hem de genetik faktörlerin oluşumu ve gelişimi üzerinde etkili olabildiği çok faktörlü bir hastalıktır (Machlowska et al., 2020). Piroptoz, enfeksiyonun ve endojen tehlike sinyallerinin antagonize edilmesinde önemli bir rol oynar. H. pylori gibi patojenler veya kemoterapi ilaçları mide kanserli hastalarda piroptoza neden olabilir (Shao et al., 2021). Yapılan bir çalışmada GSDMA’ nın mide kanserinde tümör baskılayıcı bir gen olduğu, ancak GSDMB' nin bazı mide kanseri hücrelerinde aşırı eksprese 1693 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal edildiği ve bir onkogen görevi görebileceği gösterilmiştir. GSDMB, çoğu kanserli doku örneğinde yüksek düzeyde eksprese edilmektedir, ancak normal mide örneklerinin çoğunda eksprese edilmemiştir. Ayrıca GSDMC’ nin mide kanserinde down regüle edilmesi, bunun tümör önleyici bir faktör olarak işlev görebileceğini göstermektedir (Saeki et al., 2009). Nörodejeneratif Hastalıklarda Piroptoz Nörodejeneratif hastalıklar, nöronların dejeneratif dejenerasyonu ve işlevlerinin kaybıyla karakterize edilen bozukluklardır. Nörodejeneratif hastalıkların nöroinflamasyon ve nöron ölümünün önemli faktörler olduğu karmaşık bir patofizyolojisi vardır (Liao et al., 2023). Alzheimer hastalığı, Parkinson hastalığı, felç ve amyotrofik lateral skleroz gibi nörodejeneratif hastalıklarda NLRP3 inflamatuarının neden olduğu nöroinflamasyonun kanıtlandığı gösterilmiştir (Jin et al., 2023). 1.) Piroptoz ve Alzheimer Hastalığı Alzheimer hastalığı ana patolojik özellikleri arasında β-amiloid (Aβ) birikimi, Tau proteini hiperfosforilasyonu ve nöron kaybı yer almaktadır (Zhang et al., 2021). Yapılan çalışmalar, Alzheimer hastalığının patogenezinde inflamatuarların önemli bir rol oynadığını desteklemektedir (Liu et al., 2024). Alzheimer hastalığında Aβ peptidinin birikmesi, mikroglia'nın aktive edilmesinin aracılık ettiği bir serebral nöroinflamasyon spektrumunu başlatır. Aktive edilmiş mikroglia, çevredeki beyin dokusunu etkileyen IL-1β, IL-6 ve tümör nekroz faktörü-α (TNF-α) gibi proinflamatuar sitokinlerin ekspresyonunu ortaya çıkararak potansiyel olarak zararlı bir rol oynayabilir (Wang et al., 2015). Yapılan bir çalışma ile hafif unutkanlık ve Alzheimer hastalığı olan hastaların periferik kan mononükleer hücrelerinde GSDMD aracılı inflamatuarların ve piroptozun aktive edildiği gösterilmiştir (Ju et al., 2023). IL-18 mikroglia ve astrositlerde eksprese edilmiştir, mikrogliadan türetilmiş proinflamatuar sitokinlerin Alzheimer hastalığında rol oynadığı ve IL-1β ve IL-18'in hastalığı ağırlaştırdığı düşünülmektedir (Jin et al., 2023). Aβ, tau kaynaklı mikroglia piroptozu ve nöroinflamasyona yol açan polarizasyon, Alzheimer hastalığının patogenezinde önemli bir rol oynamaktadır (Huang et al., 2022). 2.) Piroptoz ve Parkinson Hastalığı Parkinson hastalığı, orta beyin dopamin nöronlarının ilerleyici kaybının, bazal ganglionlarda dopaminerjik nöronların dejenerasyonuyla sonuçlanan karakteristik semptomlara yol açan nörodejeneratif bir hastalıktır. Parkinson hastalığı gelişimine dopaminerjik nöronların kaybı ve görünümü eşlik eder (Alexander G. E., 2004). Enflamasyonun aktivasyonunun Parkinson hastalığında rol oynadığı gösterilmiştir (Pajares et al., 2020). Yapılan çalışmalar ile, IL-1β, IL- 1694 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 2, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-a, ve NLRP3 dahil olmak üzere çeşitli piroptoz proteinlerinin Parkinson hastalarında periferik inflamatuar biyobelirteçler olarak kullanılabileceğini göstermiştir. Ayrıca piroptoz oluşumunun engellenmesi ile davranış bozukluklarının iyileştirebilir, nigrostriatal dopaminerjik dejenerasyonu ve nöroinflamasyonun azaltabilir olduğu gösterilmiştir (Liang et al., 2024). 3.) Piroptoz ve Amyotrofik Lateral Skleroz Amyotrofik lateral skleroz (ALS), motor korteks, beyin sapı ve omurilikteki motor nöronların dejenerasyonu ile karakterizedir. ALS bir motor nöron hastalığı olarak görülse de nöroinflamasyon da önemli bir rol oynar. ALS hastalığı modellerindeki son kanıtlar, inflamatuar hücre ölümünün aktivasyonunu ve ardından inflamatuar bir hücre ölümü türü olan piroptozun başladığını göstermektedir (Van Schoor et al., 2022). ALS'nin geç evresinde GSDMD, NLRP3, aktif kaspaz-1 ve IL-1β esas olarak reaktif astrositler ve mikroglialarda eksprese edilir. NLRP3 inflamatuarının aktivasyonu, ALS hastalarında ventral boynuz nöronlarının piroptozuna yol açabilir ve bu durum ALS'de motor nöron dejenerasyonu ve hastalığın ilerlemesinde rol oynayabilir (Zhang et al., 2022). Metabolik Hastalıklarda Piroptoz Metabolik hastalıklara metabolik bozukluklar dahil olmak üzere metabolik problemler neden olmaktadır. Metabolik hastalıklar arasında başlıca diyabet, obezite ve gut yer alır (Jin et al., 2023). 1.)Piroptoz ve Diyabet Diyabet, hiperglisemi ve insülin direnci ile karakterize metabolik bir hastalıktır. Piroptoz vücudun homeostazisi için iki farklı etki göstermektedir. Bir yandan çok hücreli organizmaların bakteriyel enfeksiyonlardan korunmasına yardımcı olurken öte yandan aşırı piroptoz da kronik inflamasyona yol açabilir. Aşırı piroptozun, plazma zarının hızlı yırtılmasına ve TNF-a, IL-1β ve IL-6 gibi proinflamatuar sitokinlerin ve kemokinlerin aşırı salınmasına yol açtığı gösterilmiştir (Xu et al., 2021). Hiperglisemi, diyabetik periodontal hastalığın patogenezinde önemli bir rol oynayan makrofaj GSDMD aktivasyonunu ve piroptozunu indükleyebilir ve NLRC4 fosforilasyonu anahtar rol oynayabilir (Zhao et al., 2021). Piroptoz, diyabetin patogenezinde önemli bir araştırma perspektifi haline gelmiştir, ancak diyabette piroptozun mekanizması hala belirsizdir (Jin et al., 2023) 2.)Piroptoz ve Obezite Obezite, genetik ve yaşam tarzı etkileşimlerinden kaynaklanan heterojen bir durumdur ve önemli yansımaları olan çeşitli patolojik işlev bozukluklarıyla ilişkilidir (Zatterale et al., 2020). 1695 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Obezite sıklıkla birçok dokudaki metabolik infiltrasyonla ilişkilidir ve obez bireylerden alınan monositler sıklıkla yüksek inflamatuar kaspaz aktivitesi sergiler. Doymuş yağ asidi kaspaz-4/5 yoluyla monosit piroptozunu aktive edebilir, bu da inflamatuar mediatörlerin salınmasına ve inflamatuar aktivasyona yol açar. Bu kaspazlar, obezite ile ilişkili inflamasyonu azaltmaya yönelik potansiyel terapötik hedefler olabilir (Pillon et al., 2016). NLRP3 inflamatuarının, obezite ile ilişkili kaspaz-1 aktivasyonu indükleyicilerinin algılanmasında önemli bir rol oynadığı ve bu nedenle inflamasyonun büyüklüğünü ve bunun insülin sinyalleşmesi üzerindeki aşağı yönlü etkilerini düzenlediği gösterilmiştir (Vandanmagsar et al., 2011). Sonuç Piroptoz, inflamatuar kaspaz ve gasdermin proteinleri tarafından tetiklenen yeni bir inflamatuar programlı hücre ölümü türüdür. Son kanıtlar piroptozun hastalıkların ortaya çıkmasında önemli bir rol oynadığını ve hastalık gelişimiyle yakından ilişkili olduğunu doğrulamıştır. Birçok hastalığın patogenez süreçlerinde piroptozun bulunduğu gösterilmiştir. Bu durum da hücre ölümünü hedeflemenin tedavi için potansiyel bir müdahale olabileceği bildirilmiştir. 1696 VI.

Bu çalışma arıcılığın dünya ve Türkiye’deki durumunu yıllar itibariyle ortaya koymayı amaçlamıştır. Bu amaç için 2008-2022 yıllarını kapsayan verilerle son 15 yıllık değişimler incelenmiştir. Veriler arıcılık sektörü küresel üretim değerinin 9,2 milyar doları geçtiğini göstermektedir. 2020-2022 döneminde Çin, 1.800.089 ton olan dünya bal üretiminin %25,79’unu karşılayarak ilk sırada yer alırken, Türkiye 106.239 tonluk üretimiyle ikinci sırada yer almıştır. Türkiye’yi İran, Hindistan, Arjantin ve Rusya Federasyonu takip etmiştir. Koloni varlığı bakımından Hindistan, Çin ve Türkiye ilk üç sırayı paylaşmaktadır. Türkiye 12,31 kg ile 18,02 kg olan dünya kovan bal verimi ortalamasının altında bir verimliliğe sahiptir. Üretimde olduğu gibi ihracatta da Çin lider konumdadır. Türkiye 11.051 ton ihracatıyla dünya ihracat sıralamasında 11. sırada yer almıştır. Türkiye ihracatının %43,55’ini ABD’ye yaparken, ihracat yaptığı başlıca ülkeler ABD, İspanya, Almanya ve Suudi Arabistan’dır. ABD dünyada en fazla ithalat yapan ülkedir. ABD’yi Almanya, İngiltere, Japonya, Polonya ve Belçika takip etmektedir. Türkiye’de 81 ilde bal üretimi yapılabilmekle birlikte Ordu, Adana, Muğla, Sivas ve Kocaeli illeri üretimin en fazla yapıldığı illerdir. Farklı iklim ve coğrafi özelliklere sahip olması Türkiye’yi arıcılık açısından avantajlı konuma getirse de arıcılıktaki düşük verimlilik çözülmesi gereken en önemli sorun olarak değerlendirilmektedir. Bu konuda yapılacak Ar-Ge çalışmalarına öncelik verilerek gerekli destek sağlanmalıdır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Arıcılık sektörü, Bal, Biyoçeşitlilik, Tarım Ekonomisi 1701 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal A GLOBAL VIEW OF BEEKEEPING FROM TURKEY Abstract Beekeeping is an activity that, on the one hand, provides honey production, which has an important place in human nutrition, and on the other hand, it is an activity that makes significant contributions to biodiversity and productivity with the active role of bees in the pollination process in terms of the sustainability of agricultural production. This study aimed to reveal the status of beekeeping in the world and Türkiye. For this purpose, the changes in the last 15 years were analyzed with data from 2008-2022. The data showed that the global production value of the beekeeping sector exceeds 9.2 billion dollars. In the 2020-2022 period, China ranked first with 25.79% of the world's honey production of 1,800,089 tons, while Türkiye ranked second with 106,239 tons. Türkiye was followed by Iran, India, Argentina, and the Russian Federation. India, China, and Türkiye share the first three places regarding colony size. Türkiye has a productivity of 12.31 kg, which is below the world hive yield average of 18.02 kg. China is the leader in exports as in production. Türkiye ranked 11th in the world export ranking with 11,051 tons of exports. Türkiye exported 43.55% of its exports to the USA, while the main export destinations were the USA, Spain, Germany, and Saudi Arabia. The USA was the country that imports the most in the world. The USA was followed by Germany, the UK, Japan, Poland and Belgium. Although honey is produced in 81 provinces Türkiye, Ordu, Adana, Muğla, Sivas and Kocaeli are the provinces with the highest production. Although having different climatic and geographical characteristics makes Türkiye advantageous in terms of beekeeping, low productivity in beekeeping is considered the most important problem to be solved. R&D studies on this issue should be prioritized and necessary support should be provided. Keywords: Beekeeping Industry, Honey, Biodiversity, Agricultural Economics 1702 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Arılar, dünyada ekonomiler ve ekosistemler için vazgeçilmez unsurların başında gelmekte, bitkilerin tozlaşmasından, bal ve balmumu üretimine kadar birçok konuda önemli görevleri üslenmektedir. Arıcılığın tarımsal faaliyetler içinde ayrıcalıklı bir yere sahip olmasının en önemli nedenlerinin başında bitkisel üretimin devamlılığı açısından tozlaşmada oynadığı rol, yatırımın geri dönüş süresinin kısalığı, düşük sermaye ihtiyacı ve toprağa bağımlı olmaması gelmektedir (Uzundumlu vd., 2011; Ceyhan vd., 2016). Bu özellikleri ile arıcılık uğraşı MÖ’ye ait kanıtlarla insanlık tarihinde eski bir geçmişe sahiptir (Koday & Karadağ, 2020). Arıcılık sadece bal, polen, balmumu, propolis ve arı sütü gibi ürünler aracılığıyla gelir artışına katkıda bulunmamakta, aynı zamanda tarımsal ürünlerin verimini artırmakta, biyoçeşitliliği korumakta ve ekosistem hizmetlerine ekonomik değer katmaktadır (Gratzer vd., 2021; Vrabcová & Hájek, 2020). Üretilen ürünlerin hammadde kaynağının doğanın kendisi olması ve arıların yetiştirilme şekli dikkate alındığında arıcılık doğaya en fazla bağımlı ve ekstrem hava koşullarından en fazla etkilenen hayvancılık faaliyetidir (Ceyhan vd., 2016). Arıcılık küresel olarak değerlendirildiğinde milyonlarca insan için bir geçim kaynağıdır. Dünyada yaygın olarak yapılan arıcılık, genel yapısı itibarıyla küçük aile işletmesi olarak göze çarpmakta ve ana tarımsal faaliyetlerin yanında gelir getirici ikincil bir faaliyet olarak yapılmaktadır (Erdal & Tipi, 2022). Ayrıca, gelişmekte olan ülkelerin kırsal nüfusu için iş, gelir ve beslenme kaynağı olup ekonomiye önemli katkılar sunmaktadır (Uysal, 2022). Arıcılık Türkiye, İran ve Rusya Federasyonu gibi ülkede kırsal geliri artırıcı bir faaliyet iken, Çin, Yeni Zelenda, Arjantin ve Hindistan gibi ülkeler için de önemli bir gelir kaynağıdır. Arıcılık genel olarak değerlendirildiğinde; gelir desteği, ekolojik katkılar, sürdürülebilir kalkınma, yoksulluğun azaltılması ve koruma çabalarını kapsayan çok yönlü faydalarının olduğu önemli bir faaliyettir. Türkiye sahip olduğu farklı iklim koşulları, florası, kovan sayısı ve genetik olarak çeşitli bal arısı varlığı açısından önemli bir arıcılık potansiyeline sahiptir. Özellikle bal üretiminde hayati öneme sahip ballı bitki türlerinin büyük bir çoğunluğunun Türkiye’de mevcut olması ve bu bitkilerin farklı bölgelerde farklı zamanlarda çiçeklenmesi, Türkiye arıcılığının gelişimi için büyük bir şans olarak değerlendirilmektedir (Sıralı, 2010).Bu çalışma küresel bal üretimi ve ticaretinde söz sahibi ülkelerin mevcut durumundan hareketle Türkiye’nin bu sektördeki yerini belirlemeyi amaçlamıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda bal üretimi, bal verimi, koloni sayısı, ihracat ve ithalat değerlerinin 2008-2022 yıllarındaki değişimi incelenmiştir. 1703 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Materyal ve Metot Bu araştırmada bal üretim miktarı, koloni sayıları, ithalat ve ihracat değer ve miktarları materyal olarak kullanılmıştır. Analizler için kullanılan veriler Birleşmiş Milletler Tarım ve Gıda Örgütü (FAO) ve Türkiye İstatistik Kurumu (TÜİK) veri tabanından elde edilmiştir. Çalışmada bal üretiminin dünya ve Türkiye açısından potansiyeli genel olarak ele alınmış, bu çerçevede son 15 yıllık verilerin (2008-2022) üçer yıllık ortalamaları alınarak; üretim miktarları, koloni sayıları, verim, ihracat ve ithalat değerleri amaca uygun olarak düzenlenmiş, basit indeksler oluşturulmuş ve elde edilen bulgular yorumlanmıştır. Bulgular ve Tartışma Dünya Bal Üretimindeki Gelişmeler Binlerce yıl boyunca insanlar arıcılığın potansiyelini fark etmiş ve kullanmış, onu ilkel bir uygulamadan gelişmiş bir endüstriye dönüştürmüştür. Balın son yıllarda talep artışı ile birlikte yüksek fiyatlardan alıcı bulması, kolay depolanabilir olması ve diğer arı ürünlerinin (balmumu, polen, arı sütü, propolis ve arı zehiri) farklı amaçlarla kullanılıyor olması arıcılık faaliyetinin gelişmesinde rol oynayan en önemli faktörlerdir. 2020-2022 yılı ortalamasına göre dünya ortalama bal üretimi 1.800.089 ton olarak gerçekleşmiştir (Çizelge 1). Bu üretimin yaklaşık %48’i Asya kıtasında yapılmaktadır. Asya kıtasının iklimsel olarak uygunluğu ve dünyada en fazla bal üreten Çin’in kıtada bulunması bu sonucu doğurmuştur. Asya kıtasını %22,6’lık payla Avrupa ve %19,9’luk üretim payıyla Amerika takip etmiştir.Dünya bal üretimi son 15 yılda %18,41 artmış, bu artışın %22,6’sı Çin’deki, %11,9’u İran’daki ve %8,8’i Türkiye’deki üretim artışından kaynaklanmıştır. Ukrayna ve ABD hariç tutulduğunda dünyada en fazla bal üreten ilk on ülkenin üretimlerinin belli oranda artırdığı Çizelge 1’den görülmektedir. Özellikle İran, Türkiye ve Hindistan’daki üretim artış oranları dikkat çekicidir.Çin, Türkiye ve İran dünya bal üretiminde ilk üç sırayı paylaşırken Çin’in toplam üretimden aldığı pay %25,79’dur. Türkiye ortalama 106.239 tonluk üretimiyle %5,9’luk bir pay alarak dünyada en fazla bal üreten ikinci ülke konumundadır.

Koloni varlığı bakımından karşılaştırıldığında Hindistan en fazla arı kolonisine sahip ülkedir (Çizelge 2). Etiyopya, Tanzanya ve İspanya dünya bal üretiminde ilk on ülke arasında yer almamasına rağmen koloni varlığı bakımından ilk on ülke içinde olması dikkat çekicidir. Bu durum söz konusu ülkelerin verimliliğinin düşük olduğunun göstergesidir. Son 15 yıllık veriler ışığında koloni varlığında dünyada %27,11’lik artışın olduğunu söylemek mümkündür. Rusya Federasyonu’nda koloni sayısının azalmasına rağmen üretimin artması en önemli bulgulardan biridir. Türkiye’de ise koloni sayısının artış oranı üretim artış oranından daha yüksek gerçekleşmiştir. Son 15 yılda koloni sayısında 21 milyon adetten fazla bir artış söz konusudur. Bu artışın %15,75’i Türkiye’deki artıştan kaynaklanmıştır. 1705 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Çizelge 2.

Kovan başına bal verimi, çeşitli faktörlerden etkilenen kritik bir ölçüttür. Arı türleri, kovan yeri, nektar kaynakları, kovanın genel sağlık durumu ve arıcılık teknikleri gibi faktörler kovan başına bal veriminin belirlenmesinde önemli rol oynar (Akyol vd., 2014). Bal üretiminde önde gelen ülkelerin kovan başına bal verimleri Çizelge 3’te sunulmuştur. Dünya ortalamasına göre kovan başına yaklaşık 18 kg bal üretilmektedir. Çin verimlilikte başı çeken ülkedir. Bal üretiminde ilk ona giren ülkeler arasında kovan başına bal veriminde Hindistan, İran ve Türkiye dünya ortalamasının altında kalan ülkeler olmuştur. Türkiye’de zaten düşük olan kovan başı verim son 15 yılda %20’den fazla düşmüştür. Bu verim düşüklüğünün nedenlerini tespit etmek ve gerekli önlemleri almak arıcılık sektörünün gelişmesi açısından en önemli konulardır. 1706 VI.

Dünya Bal Ticaretindeki Gelişmeler Dış ticarete konu olan bal miktarının üretime oranı diğer hayvansal ürünlerle karşılaştırıldığında oldukça yüksektir. Son 15 yıllık veriler incelendiğinde yıldan yıla değişmekle beraber dünya bal üretiminin %28-42’si uluslararası ticarete konu olmuştur (FAO, 2024). Dünya bal ihracatında önde gelen ilk on ülke ve Türkiye’ye ait ihracat istatistikleri Çizelge 4’te verilmiştir. Bal üretiminde olduğu gibi ihracatında da Çin lider ülkedir. Dünya bal ihracat miktarı 2008-2010 döneminde 444.543 ton iken 2020-2022 döneminde %70,50 artarak 757.929 tona ulaşmıştır. İhracata konu olan bal miktarı bakımından Çin %19,10’luk pay alırken Çin’i sırasıyla %9,30’luk payla Hindistan, %8,85’lik payla Arjantin takip etmiştir. İhracatta ilk on ülkenin küresel ihracatın yaklaşık %70’ini gerçekleştirmiştir. Türkiye üretimdeki potansiyelini ihracata yansıtamamıştır. Türkiye’nin dünya bal ihracatındaki payı %1,46 olurken arzu edilen seviyede olmadığını belirtmek gerekir. Son 15 yıllık ihracat verilerine göre ihracat miktarını mutlak olarak en fazla artıran ülkeler Çin, Ukrayna ve Hindistan’dır. 1707 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Türkiye 2020-2022 döneminde ortalama 11.051 ton balı yaklaşık 34 milyon dolara ihraç etmiştir.

Sonuç ve Öneriler Arıcılık, insanlar için önemli bir gıda olan balın üretimi ve bitkisel üretimin sürekliliği açısından hayati öneme sahip bir sektördür. Bu çalışmada, dünya ve Türkiye bal üretim ve ticaretindeki son 15 yıldaki gelişmeler değerlendirilmiştir. Nitekim son 15 yıllık veriler değerlendirildiğinde bal üretim ve ticaretinde önemli gelişmelerin olduğunu söylemek mümkündür. Bu artış beraberinde küresel anlamda bal ticaretinin de gelişimini sağlamıştır.Türkiye iklimi ve coğrafi konumu nedeniyle önemli bir arıcılık potansiyeline sahip olmasına ve bal üretiminde dünya sıralamasında önemli bir konumda olmasına rağmen, sektörde önemli sorunlarla karşı karşıyadır. Özellikle bal üretimindeki düşük verimlilik en önemli sorundur. Verimliliğin artırılmasına yönelik eğitim, bilinçlendirme ve Ar-Ge çalışmalarına hız verilmeli, modern tekniklerin ve teknolojik yeniliklerin benimsenmesi teşvik edilmelidir. Türkiye potansiyelinin aksine küresel bal ticaretinde arzu edilen seviyede değildir. Bal ihraç ettiğimiz ülkelerin pazarından aldığımız pay çok düşük oranlarda kalmaktadır. Bunun en büyük nedenlerinden biri dış pazarın istediği kalitede bal üretimimizin olmamasıdır. Bu nedenle 1709 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal kaliteli bal üretiminin artırılmasına yönelik inisiyatiflerin harekete geçirilmesi, beraberinde coğrafi işaret ve kalite standartlarının devreye alınması, bal ihracatının değerini artırmada en önemli konular olarak değerlendirilmektedir. 1710 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal MEDICINAL AND AROMATIC PLANTS FROM PAST TO PRESENT ABSTRACT When medicinal and aromatic plants are mentioned, they cover a very large area in terms of plants, active ingredients and consumption areas. While medicinal plants are used in areas such as nutrition, cosmetics, body care, incense or religious ceremonies, aromatic plants are used to give pleasant smell and taste. Aromatic plants also have wide usage areas in the food, cosmetics and perfumery industries. The use of plants in treatment began with the history of humanity. Thousands of years ago, people recognized the therapeutic power of plants and used them to live a healthy life. Throughout human history, many diseases have been tried and are being treated using plants. According to the WHO (World Health Organization) report, approximately 21,000 of the 70,000 plants in the world are used in the pharmaceutical industry, and only about 1,000 of the species that grow in our country, most of which occur naturally, are used for medicinal purposes.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal INTRODUCTION All living and non-living entities on Earth maintain their existence as a product of an extraordinary balance. Perhaps the most significant among these entities are undoubtedly plants. So much so that plants have an indispensable place, especially for human and animal life. This indispensability has continued without losing its importance since the first day humans appeared on Earth. Throughout history, humans have benefited from plants in various ways, such as for shelter, clothing, nutrition, and treatment.The beginning of the relationship between plants and humans is considered to be the findings in a Neanderthal grave at Shanidar Cave in Northern Iraq, during excavations between 1957 and 1961. Dating back 60,000 years and believed to belong to a shaman, this grave contained types of plants like yarrow, canary grass, purple hyacinth, rose mallow, passionflower, and ephedra. In a society that had begun burying its dead, it is thought that these plants were placed in the grave with the idea that the deceased might use them upon returning to life. This might indicate the beginning of differentiating between edible and medicinal plants since these plant types are still important today, especially as medicinal plants (Lewin, 2000; Heinrich et al., 2004).The bond between humans and plants over the centuries has given rise to the field of ethnobotany, which is recognized and researched worldwide today (Koçyiğit, 2005). The knowledge of ethnobotany, gained through trial and error over a long period and transmitted from generation to generation, contributes significantly to the scientific evaluation of plants.In France, Chauvet Cave contains Paleolithic period archaeological findings and remnants from around 30,000 BCE, including fossil remnants of some medicinal plants used today. The well-preserved "Ice Man Ötzi," discovered accidentally in the Austrian Alps in the 1990s and dating back to 3,300 BCE, had plants with him that are thought to have been used for protective and medicinal purposes (Megep, 2010).Among the earliest written texts about the uses of plants are agricultural and medicinal recipes inscribed in cuneiform on clay tablets by the Sumerians around 3,500-3,000 BCE. It is claimed that the roots of traditional Chinese medicine originate from the legendary Chinese Emperor Shennong, who lived around 3,000-2,700 BCE. His writings on medicinal plants and agriculture have been handed down through the centuries. Around 1,700 BCE, Hammurabi, the king of Babylon, immortalized health-related laws and information about medicinal and aromatic plants on a monumental stone inscription. The Ebers Papyrus, believed to be written around 1,500 BCE and containing information from at least 1,000-1,500 years earlier, is one of the oldest and most important written sources on medicinal and aromatic plants (Bayramoğlu and Toksoy, 2008). 1714 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal The term "Phytotherapy," meaning treatment with medicinal plants, was first used by French physician Henri Leclerc (1870-1955) (Faydaoğlu and Sürücüoğlu, 2011). Throughout human history, many diseases such as diabetes, jaundice, and respiratory issues have been treated using plants. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 4 billion people (80% of the world's population) initially address health problems using herbal drugs. Additionally, about 25% of prescription medications in developed countries are made up of active ingredients derived from plants (Farnsworth et al., 1985). CONCLUSION Medicinal and aromatic plants have been an essential component of health since the existence of humanity. They continue to be a vital source of compounds capable of treating many diseases, even amidst modern medical advancements. Despite the development of medical drugs and treatment methods, the treatment with medicinal plants still retains its importance. Traditional treatment methods are preferred before medical treatment, especially during the fall and winter seasons when flu, colds, and respiratory diseases caused by viruses are more common. Additionally, people who want to strengthen their immune system or mitigate the symptoms of diseases often prioritize herbal treatments over medical drugs. Extensive studies have been conducted and continue to be necessary worldwide on the antimicrobial activities of extracts obtained from various plant species belonging to many families against various pathogens. 1715 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal CONTINOUS ASSURANCE AUDITING AND COMPUTER-ASSISTED ACCOUNTING AUDUTING PROCESSES Abstract Businesses have improved their accounting audit processes due to advances in the global economy and information technologies (IT). In fact, internal controls were also affected by this situation. Today, the integration of accounting and technology is higher than ever before and the momentum continues. The Covid-19 epidemic has accelerated this process even further. In this study, primarily the concept of Continuous Assurance Auditing (CAA) is explained and computer-aided accounting auditing processes are emphasized. At the same time, ComputerAssisted Audit Tools and Techniques (CAATs), which enable the implementation of the CAA and facilitate the process, were examined. The techniques in question are important tools in preventing accounting errors and frauds. In addition, they have the effect of reducing risk and increasing business performance. The research shows that CAA and computer-aided accounting auditing processes have a detailed and deep structure. At the same time, programs (software), programming languages and audit tool sets within the scope of auditing investigation and analysis tools also have diversity. Businesses must invest in big data analysis techniques and artificial intelligence (AI) applications to be used in accounting auditing. In addition, the reshaping of accounting, auditing and internal controls by breaking away from their traditional structures has made it necessary for businesses to invest in intellectual capital in general and human capital specifically. In future studies, the effects of robotics, machine learning or deep learning techniques on internal and external (independent) auditing can be examined. Current programs (software), programming languages and control tool sets can be taken into consideration. At the same time, the focus can be on applications and examples on businesses. Keywords: Accounting, Auditing, Technology, Continuous Assurance Auditing, ComputerAssisted Accounting Auditing Processes 1719 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Küreselleşme ve bilgi teknolojilerinde (informaton technologies - IT) yaşanan gelişmeler, klasik işletme kavramından dijital işletme kavramına geçişe yol açmıştır (Aksel ve diğ, 2013). Hiç şüphesiz, muhasebe ve denetim de tecrübe edilen bu değişimden etkilenmiştir. Muhasebe zaman içerisinde çok daha kapsayıcı bir karaktere sahip olmuş, paydaşlar nezdinde daha da önemli bir konuma yükselmiştir.Muhasebe, denetim ve iç kontrolde teknoloji ile entegrasyon hızlanmıştır. Covid-19 döneminin ise bu bağlamda katalizör görevi gördüğünü ifade etmek yanlış olmayacaktır. Covid-19 salgını, aslında muhasebe, denetim ve iç kontrolde gerçekleşmekte olan değişim ile yeniden şekillenmeleri daha erken bir tarihe çekmiştir.Bu çalışmada Giriş bölümünden sonra Sürekli Güvence Denetimi (Continuous Assurance Auditing - CAA) bölümü yer almıştır. Bu kısmı Bilgisayar Destekli Denetim Araç ve Teknikleri (Computer-Assisted Audit Tools - CAATs) bölümü takip etmiştir. Araştırma, Sonuç ve Öneriler bölümü ile noktalanmıştır. Sürekli Güvence Denetimi (Continuous Assurance Auditing - CAA) Sürekli güvence denetimi, kontrolle ilgili sistemlerin bilgi teknolojileri (information technologies - IT) içerisinde kurulmasıdır. Bu sistemler genellikle iç denetçi olmak üzere, denetçiye herhangi bir denetim limiti veya parametresinden sapma meydana gelirse denetimle ilgili mesaj veya uyarı gönderirler. Günümüzde, iç denetimin riskleri minimize etme ve fırsatlardan yararlanma hususlarındaki etkisi göz ardı edilemez (Deloitte, 2024). Teknoloji ise, sürekli denetimin uygulanmasını çok daha kolay bir hale getirmiştir (Moeller, 2016).Çağımızda işletmelerin, bilgi sistemleri veri tabanlarında depolanan her türlü operasyonel ve geçmişe yönelik bilgiyi saklamaya ihtiyacı vardır. Eğer bu depolanmış veri büyük, karmaşık ve birbirleri ile ilişkili veri tabanlarında saklanıyorsa bu kavram veri ambarı (data warehouse) olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Veri ambarı, veri madenciliği ve çevrimiçi analitik işlem araçları gibi, sürekli güvence denetimini uygulamak için gerekli bir unsurdur (Moeller, 2016).Bilgisayar destekli muhasebe denetim süreçlerinin etkin olarak işleyebilmesi için yeterli bilgiye sahip denetçiler istihdam edilmeli ve teknik altyapı oluşturulmalıdır (Gönen ve Rasgen, 2015). İşletmelerin, bilgisayar teknolojileri altyapılarının kurulmasına ve denetçilerin bu teknolojileri kullanmalarına yönelik eğitimlerine bütçelerinde pay ayırmaları önemli bir gerekliliktir. (Orhan ve Serçemeli, 2015). Denetimde kullanılan bilgi teknolojilerinin denetçilerin iş tatmini ve motivasyonlarını arttırdığı ve deneyimli denetçilerin riskli ile teknik konulara daha iyi odaklanabildikleri belirlenmiştir (Ertaş ve Güven, 2008). Bu noktada, günümüzde hem bir alt küme olarak insan sermayesine, hem de bu bağlamda insan sermayesini de kapsayan bir üst 1720 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal küme olarak entelektüel sermayeye değinilmelidir. Hiç şüphesiz, insan sermayesi ve genel anlamda entelektüel sermaye, işletmelerin gerçek değerlerinin farkına varıp bunları yansıtabilmeleri için kritik bir faktördür (Arslan ve Kızıl, 2019). Sürekli Güvence Denetiminin (Continuous Assurance Auditing - CAA) Özellikleri • Tekrarlanan yazılım denetim monitörleri (izleyici programlar) bilgi teknolojileri uygulamalarına yerleştirilmiştir. Örneğin, eğer işletmenin iç denetim departmanı, özellikle bir büyük defter (defteri kebir) hesabındaki belirli bir limitin üzerindeki finansal işlemlerle ilgileniyorsa, bu durumu karşılayan her aktiviteyi izleyecek bir yazılım değişikliğini sisteme yükleyebilir. • İşletmenin bir alanını gözden geçirmek için periyodik iç denetimler planlamak yerine, sürekli güvence denetimi (Continuous Assurance Auditing - CAA) iç denetimin dikkatini çekebilecek potansiyel ilgi alanlarını kaydeder. Daha sonra ise bunları takip etmek, iç denetimin sorumluluğundadır (Moeller, 2016). Şekil 1. Ödeme Sistemi Sürekli Denetim İzleme Örneği (Moeller, 2010) Şekil 1’de ödeme sistemi sürekli denetim izleme örneği yer almaktadır. Sürekli izleme uygulaması, tüm ödemeler işlem dosyasındaki faaliyetleri periyodik olarak izleyen, ayrı ve paralel yazılım setlerinden oluşmaktadır. Faaliyet özetleri periyodik olarak raporlanır ve herhangi bir olağandışı öge, bir sapma raporuyla e-posta şeklinde iletilir. Bu sistem birçok işletmede bulunan şifre güvenlik izleme sistemlerine çok benzerdir. Sapma faaliyeti düzenli aralıklarda rapor edilir, aynı zamanda herhangi bir kırmızı bayrak ihlali hemen dikkate alınacak şekilde denetçiye bildirilmektedir (Moeller, 2010).Sürekli İzleme (Continous Monitor - CM) ve Sürekli Güvence Denetimi (Continuous Assurance Auditing - CAA) kavramları benzerdir, 1721 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ancak amaçlarında farklılar mevcuttur. Bir bilişim teknolojileri denetçisi, sürekli izleme hakkında temel bir anlayışa ve sürekli güvence denetimi temel özellikleri hakkında bilgiye sahip olmalıdır. Sürekli izleme bir risk ve kontrol izleme sistemi iken, en temel tasarımında sürekli güvence denetimi diğer kritik uygulamaları izleyen bağımsız bir uygulamadır. CM uygulaması bir ödeme işlem dosyasındaki etkinliği, ayrı ve periyodik incelemeler yoluyla tüm ödeme faaliyetleri bazında izleyen paralel yazılım setidir. Faaliyet özetleri periyodik olarak raporlanmaktadır ve fark edilen olağandışı öğeler, bir e-posta aracılığıyla bir istisna raporunda vurgulanmaktadır (Moeller, 2010). Bilgisayar Destekli Denetim Araç ve Teknikleri (Computer-Assisted Audit Tools CAATs) Bilgisayar Destekli Denetim Araç ve Teknikleri, iç veya dış (bağımsız) denetçiler tarafından kullanılmaktadır ve bir işletmeninin bilgi sistemi içerisinde bulunan, denetim için önemli olan verinin işlenmesine yönelik denetim prosedürlerinin bir parçası olarak bilinmektedir. Denetçiler tarafından en çok kullanılan teknik ve araçlar literatürde, elektronik çalışma belgeleri, hile tespiti, bilgi toplama ve analiz için destekleyici görevi bulunan genel denetim yazılımı, ağ güvenlik testi, sürekli izleme, denetim raporlaması, denetim geçmişi veri tabanları, bilgisayar tabanlı eğitim, elektronik ticaret ve internet güvenliği olarak yer almaktadır (Mahzan ve Lymer, 2014). Denetimin konusunu ise artık sadece finansal veriler oluşturmamaktadır. Bahse konu olan değişim, denetim teknoloji ve metotlarında da değişime sebep olmuştur. Şekil 2’de bilgisayar destekli denetim teknikleri (teknolojileri), uygulama durumlarına göre sınıflandırılmıştır (Jiang, 2019). Şekil 2. Bilgisayar Destekli Denetim Tekniklerinin (Teknolojilerinin) Sınıflandırılması (Jiang, 2019)Bilgisayar destekli denetim teknikleri (teknolojileri) ile gerçekleştirilen bazı faaliyetler ise aşağıda sıralanmıştır: (Handoko, Lindawati ve Mustapha, 2020) 1722 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal • Denetim örneklemesinden bilgisayar parametrelerinin seçilmesinde, hesaplanmasında ve örnek sonuçlarının değerlendirilmesinde yararlanılması • Simülasyon ve yazılımların değerlendirilmesinde bilgisayar kullanımı • Test edilecek verinin toplanması • Denetim çalışma kağıtlarının hazırlanması • Verinin hesaplanması ve karşılaştırılması • Hesaplamaların analizi • Bütçe ve zaman takibi • Standart denetim yazışmaları • Verilerin eksiksizliğinin, tutarlılığının, tahsisinin ve doğruluğunun kontrolü • Formüllerin kontrolü • Veri bütünlüğünün karşılaştırılması • Veri analizi için genel gözden geçirme, sıralama, birleştirme, bölme ve oranlama • Gerçekleştirilen çeşitli denetim prosedürleri arasındaki verilerin karşılaştırılması Genelleştirilmiş denetim yazılımları (Generalized audit software - GAS) olarak bilinen ve kolayca erişilebilen, denetçinin bilgi teknolojileri konusunda uzmanlığımı gerektirmeyen bilgisayar denetim programları da sıkça kullanılmaktadır. Genelleştirilmiş denetim yazılımları, bilgisayar depolama ortamında tutulan verilere erişim elde etmek ve bunları değiştirmek için bir araç sunan tamamlanmış programlardır. Bu yazılımlar, matematiksel hesaplamalar, tabakalandırma, istatistiksel analiz, sıra denetimi, çift kontrol, yeniden hesaplamalar vb. tüm özelliklere sahiptir. Denetçiler, başvuru sistemleri tarafından üretilen ve tutulan kayıtların kalitesi hakkında doğrudan onay alabilirler. Buna karşılık, kayıtların kalitesine ilişkin vardıkları sonuçlar, bu kayıtları işleyen başvuru sisteminin kalitesi hakkında yargıda bulunmalarını da sağlayacaktır. Genelleştirilmiş denetim yazılımları (GAS), denetimi gerçekleştiremez. Fakat, müşterilerin gereksinimlerine göre bilgilerin seçilmesini ve işlenmesini kolaylaştırabilir. En sık kullanılan iki GAS ise, ACL (Audit Command Language) ve IDEA'dır (Interactive Data Extraction Analysis). ACL aslında bir programlama dili ve denetime yönelik araçlar setidir. IDEA ise aslında denetime yönelik bir veri analiz yazılımı ve teknolojisidir. Denetimde sorgulama ve analiz araçları örnekleri Tablo 1'de belirtilmiştir (Serpeninova, Makarenko, Litvinova, 2020). Hile denetiminde kullanılan yazılımlar ve programlama dillerine de örnek olarak ACL, IDEA ve Excel gösterilebilir. Yapılacak hile denetim testlerini ana başlıklara ayıracak olursak ticari alacaklar, ticari borçlar, büyük defter, maaş ve ödemeler ile satın alma 1723 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal emirleri yönetimi şeklinde sınıflandırmak mümkündür. Hiç şüphesiz, hile denetimi testlerinin aslında daha kapsamlı olduğunu da bu noktada vurgulamak gereklidir (Coderre, 2009).Genelleştirilmiş denetim yazılımlarının yanı sıra denetçiler, verilere erişmek ve bu verileri işlemek için bir programlama dili kullanabilirler. Özellikle birçok denetçi, sistem güvenilirliğine ilişkin kanıt toplamak için C, C++, JAVA, SQL, Pyton, PHP gibi programlama dillerini ve ACL ile IDEA’yı kullanmaktadır. Genel destek araçlarından bazıları ise şunlardır: MS Office, Oracle, Webmetrics 3.0, MS Access ve MS Excel (Serpeninova, Makarenko, Litvinova, 2020). Tablo 1. Denetimde Sorgulama ve Analiz Araçları Örnekleri (Serpeninova,Y., Makarenko, S., Litvinova, M., 2020) Program / Programlama Dili / Denetime Yönelik Araç Seti MS Access ACL MS Excel CA-Examine CA-Easytrieve C, C++, JAVA, SQL, Pyton, PHP SAS, SPSS Özellikler Veri seçimi, analizi ve raporlaması sağlayan Microsoft’a ait bir veri tabanı programı. Çoğu formattan (Örnek: EBCDIC, TXT) dosyaları okuyan ve veri seçimi, analizi ve raporlaması sağlayan programlama dili ile denetime yönelik araçlar seti. Analiz, hesaplama, grafik ve raporlama sağlayan Microsoft’a ait elektronik tablo yazılımı. Veri seçimi, analizi ve değerlendirmesi sağlayan interaktif bir yazılım. Veri seçimi, analizi ve değerlendirmesi sağlayan rapor oluşturma yazılımı. Veri seçimi, analizi ve değerlendirmesi sağlayan programlama dilleri. Veri seçimi, analizi ve değerlendirmesi sağlayan istatistik programları. Bilgisayar destekli denetim teknolojisi, ortaya çıkan bilgi sistemleri ve denetim risklerini azaltmak için önemli bir araçtır. Audit Command Language (ACL) gibi programlama dilleri ve denetime yönelik araç setlerinin kullanımı, işletmelerin performanslarını arttırmaktadır. İç Denetçiler Enstitüsü'ne (Institute of Internal Auditors - IIA) göre, bilgisayar destekli denetim yazılımları, birçok denetçinin denetim prosedürünü yürütmesi için bir araç haline gelmiştir (Chou, 2018). İç denetimde bilgisayar destekli denetim araçlarının kullanmanın ise, satın almadan ödemeye kadar olan işletme süreçlerinde yaşanabilecek hileli işlemlerin tespitinde çok önemli bir rolü bulunmaktadır (Samagaio ve Diogo, 2020). Bilgisayar destekli muhasebe denetim süreçlerinin, özellikle Covid-19 döneminde de ön plana çıktığını vurgulamak gerekir. Hatta, Covid-19 döneminde iç kontrol süreçleri dahi yeniden şekillenmiştir (Kızıl, Kızıl ve Dolaz, 2021). 1724 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Sonuç ve Öneriler Günümüzde muhasebe ve denetimin teknoloji ile entegrasyonu geçmiş yıllara göre çok daha hızlı bir şekilde devam etmektedir. Sürekli güvence denetimi ve bilgisayar destekli muhasebe denetim süreçleri ise, iç ve dış (bağımsız) denetim faaliyetleri sırasında işletmelerde olabilecek hata ile hilelerin belirlenip önlenmesinde büyük bir öneme sahiptir. Sürekli güvence denetimi ve bilgisayar destekli muhasebe denetim süreçleri, hataları ile hileleri sıfırlayamaz ve riskleri tamamen bertaraf edemez. Fakat, bu hususlarda büyük avantajlar sunmaktadır.Bilgisayar destekli muhasebe denetim süreçlerinin son yıllarda daha da işlerlik kazanarak uygulama sahasının genişlemesi, teknolojinin hızla gelişimi ile küreselleşmenin bir sonucudur. Covid-19 dönemi ise bu süreci hızlandırmıştır. Muhasebe ve denetimin yanında, iç kontrol de her geçen gün klasik kimliğinden uzaklaşarak yeniden şekillenmektedir. Muhasebe, denetim ve iç kontrol alanlarında yeni trendler gözlemlenmektedir.Son olarak, günümüzde işletmeler denetimde büyük veri analizine yönelik çalışmalara yatırım yapmak ve veri analistlerine istihdam sağlamak zorundadırlar. Gelecek çalışmalarda, yapay zeka uygulamalarının gelişmesi sebebi ile iç ve dış (bağımsız) denetimde robotik, makine öğrenmesi veya derin öğrenme tekniklerinin denetim kalitesi ile güvencesine etkileri incelenebilir. Güncel programlar (yazılımlar), programlama dilleri ve denetime yönelik araç setleri mercek altına alınabilir. Aynı zamanda, işletmeler üzerinde uygulama ve örneklere odaklanılabilir. 1725 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Kadınları etkileyen sağlık ile ilgili problemler sadece kadınları değil aile bireylerini ve içinde yaşadığı toplumu da yakından etkilemektedir. Jinekolojik kanserler tıpta bilimsel ilerlemeler olmasına rağmen dünyanın ve ülkemizin en önemli sağlık sorunlarından biri olup, insidans hızının artış göstermesi ile gündemdeki yerini korumaktadır (Sağlık İstatistikleri Yıllığı, 2020; THSK Kanser Daire Başkanlığı, 2021). Jinekolojik kanserler kadınların mortalite ve morbidite hızını etkilemektedir. Jinekolojik kanserler bireylerde sakatlıklara, ekstremite kayıplarına, ruhsal çöküntülere neden olmakta ve iş veriminin düşmesini etkilemektedir. Jinekolojik kanser tedavilerinin pahalı olması ve sürecin uzun sürmesi ise ülke ekonomisi açısından önemli bir sorun teşkil etmektedir (Erdem ve diğerleri, 2017; Ismail ve diğerleri, 2017). Jinekolojik kanserlerin prevalansının belirlenmesi, neden olan risk faktörlerinin bilinerek saptanması, korunma yolları ve uygun tedavi protokollerinin geliştirilmesinin önemi gün geçtikçe artmaktadır (Sağlık İstatistikleri Yıllığı, 2020; THSK Kanser Daire Başkanlığı, 2021; The Global Cancer Observatory, 2021).Dünyada jinekolojik kanser yükü giderek artmakta olup, orta ve düşük gelirli ülkeleri daha fazla etkilemektedir. Bu durumda orta ve düşük gelirli ülkelerde jinekolojik kanserlerin önüne geçmek daha da önemli hale gelmektedir (THSK Kanser Daire Başkanlığı, 2021). Uluslararası Kanser Araştırma Ajansı (IARC) tarafından yayınlanan Global Cancer Statistics (GLOBOCAN) 2020 verilerine göre dünyada kadınlarda jinekolojik kanserlerin görülme sıklığı en fazla serviks, uterus ve over kanseri şeklinde bulunmuştur (The Global Cancer Observatory, 2021). Ülkemizde beş yılda bir yayınlanan 2017 yılında yapılan “Türkiye Kanser İstatistikleri” verilerine göre kadınlarda jinekolojik kanserlerden uterus korpusu % 5,6 ile 5. sırada, over kanseri % 3,3 ile 7. sırada, serviks kanseri %2,3 ile 9. sırada yer almaktadır (Sağlık İstatistikleri Yıllığı, 2020). Jinekolojik kanserlerdeki risk faktörleri kanserin türüne ve kişiye göre farklılık gösterebilmektedir. Yaş, zararlı madde kullanımı (alkol, sigara vb.), hormonal, çevresel ve bireysel faktörler, kilolu olmak, aile öyküsü, sedanter (hareketsiz) yaşam, Human Papilloma Virüs (HPV) enfeksiyonu, onkolojik virüsler, sosyo-ekonomik düzey kişilerde jinekolojik kanserlere zemin hazırlamaktadır (Alp Dal ve Ertem, 2017; Aydoğdu ve Özsoy, 2018; Rieck ve Fiander, 2006). Yaş kontrol edilemeyecek bir risk faktörü iken diğer risklerden korunabilmek ise mümkündür (Alp Dal ve Ertem, 2017). Jinekolojik kanserlerin önlenmesinde birincil, ikincil ve üçüncül koruma yöntemleri dikkate alınmalıdır. Birincil korunmada jinekolojik kanserlere yönelik bireylere farkındalık kazandırmak önemlidir. Kanser kontrol programında ebeler jinekolojik kanserlerden korunmada, taramalarda, erken tanıda aktif rol oynamaktadır. Ebelerin birincil korumadaki 1730 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal görevi jinekolojik kanserlere yönelik farkındalık oluşturarak kadınlara davranış değişikliği kazandırmaktır (Dal ve diğerleri, 2020). Ebeler kadınlara farkındalık oluşturmak için eğitici, danışman, rahatlatıcı, bakım verici, araştırmacı rollerini aktif kullanmalıdır (Gedük, 2018). Bu rollerin ışığında ebeler gerekli eğitimleri planlayarak jinekolojik kanserlerden korunmak için neler yapılacağı, risk faktörleri, sağlıklı yaşam şekli, erken tanı ve tedavinin önemini vurgulamalıdır (Dal ve diğerleri, 2020; Eroğlu ve Koç, 2014).Jinekolojik kanserden korunmada, risk altındaki kadınların saptanması ve erken tanı önemlidir. Erken tanı, hastalığın klinik belirtileri görülmediği dönemde teşhis edilmesidir. Erken tanının amacı, hastalığın erken teşhisi ile vücutta yayılmanın önüne geçilerek, tedavinin başarılı olması için zaman kazanmayı sağlamaktadır. Ebeler risk altındaki kadınları daha dikkatli gözlemleyerek kendi sağlığı ile ilgili sorumluluk almasını, vücudundaki değişimleri erken fark etmesini sağlamalıdır (Açıkgöz ve diğerleri, 2011; Özçam ve diğerleri, 2014). Jinekolojik kanserlere yönelik risk faktörlerinin değiştirilebilenler (sağlıklı beslenmek, aile planlaması yöntemi kullanmak, HPV enfeksiyonu, sigara ve alkol kullanmamak) ve değiştirilemeyenler (yaş, genetik, aile geçmişi) üzerine odaklanmak farkındalık için önemlidir. Jinekolojik kanserden korumak için değiştirilebilen risk faktörlerine yönelik sağlık algısının arttırılması gereklidir. Değiştirilemeyecek risk faktörlerini bilmek jinekolojik kanserlerin erken tespitinde ve jinekolojik kanser taramalarında önemli yer tutmaktadır (Kaya ve diğerleri, 2021). Kadınların jinekolojik kanserlerden korunmalarının en etkin yolu erken tanı ve taramalarını zamanında yaptırmalarıdır. Literatürde, kadınların jinekolojik kanserlere yönelik farkındalıklarını etkileyen faktörler konusu ile ilgili sınırlı sayıda çalışma olduğu görülmüş ve yapılan çalışmaların çoğunlukla serviks kanseriyle ilgili çalışmalar olduğu dikkat çekmektedir. Kadınların jinekolojik kanserlere yönelik farkındalıklarının belirlenmesi ve farkındalıklarını artırmaya yönelik öneriler sunulmasını amaçlayan çalışmalara ihtiyaç olduğu saptanmış ve bu çalışmanın yapılmasına karar verilmiştir. Çalışmamızın sonucundaki verilerin bilime katkı sağlayarak ebelerin eğitici ve danışman rollerini tekrar gözden geçirmelerini ve sağlık kurumlarındaki yöneticilerin kararlarına yardımcı olabileceği düşünülmektedir. Gereç ve Yöntem Araştırmanın Tipi Araştırma analitik-kesitsel olarak yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın Evreni ve Örneklemi Araştırma evrenini, Denizli ili merkezinde yaşayan 20-65 yaşları arasındaki 199 877 kadın oluşturmuştur. Araştırmanın örneklemini ise evreni belirli örneklem yöntemine göre %99 1731 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal güven aralığında, kabul edilebilir hata 0,05 ve N=199877 evren sayısı ile hesaplandığında 540 bulunmuştur. Araştırma olası vaka kayıpları (yaklaşık %15) dikkate alınarak 650 kadın ile tamamlanmıştır.Araştırma Aralık 2020- Aralık 2021 tarihleri arasında, Denizli İl Sağlık Müdürlüğü’ne bağlı 65 adet Aile Sağlığı Merkezine (ASM) kayıtlı, 20-65 yaşları arasında, ilkokul ve daha fazla eğitimi olan 650 kadınla yürütülmüştür. Araştırmanın tüm Denizli il merkezini kapsaması bakımından her ASM’den 10’ar kadına ulaşılmıştır. Araştırma Verilerinin Toplanması Veri Toplama Araçları Araştırmada kadınların özelliklerini belirlemek için Tanıtıcı Bilgi Formu ve Jinekolojik Kanserlere Yönelik Farkındalık Ölçeği (JİKFÖ) kullanılmıştır. 1. Tanıtıcı Bilgi Formu Araştırmada konu ile ilgili literatürden faydalanılarak “Tanıtıcı Bilgi Formu” oluşturulmuştur. Bu form araştırmacı tarafından hazırlanmıştır. Formda kadınların sosyo-demografik özelliklerini içeren 8 soru, (yaş, eğitim durumu, çalışma durumu, mesleği, eşinin eğitim durumu, eşinin mesleği, gelir gider durumu, sosyal güvencesi) obstetrik öykülerini içeren 12 soru, (gebelik sayısı, doğum sayısı, kaçıncı evliliği, evlilik süresi, ilk evlenme yaşı, ilk cinsel ilişki yaşı, ilk adet yaşı, ilk gebelik yaşı, menopoz durumu, kullandığı aile planlaması yöntemi) kanserlere yönelik 11 soru olmak üzere toplam 39 sorudan oluşmaktadır (Dal ve Ertem, 2017; Şirin ve Kavlak, 2015; Taşkın, 2016). Bu form araştırmaya katılan kadınlarla yüz yüze görüşülerek araştırmacı tarafından doldurulmuştur. 2. Jinekolojik Kanserler Farkındalık Ölçeği Jinekolojik Kanserler Farkındalık Ölçeği (JİKFÖ) Dal ve Ertem (2017) tarafından 20-65 yaş arası evli kadınların jinekolojik kanserlere ilişkin farkındalıklarını değerlendirmek amacıyla geliştirilmiştir (Dal ve Ertem, 2017). Geçerli, güvenilir olduğu saptanan JİKFÖ 41 maddeden ve dört alt boyuttan oluşan 5’li likert tipte bir ölçektir. Ölçekte her soru maddesi için kadınların “Kesinlikle Katılmıyorum”, “Katılmıyorum”, “Kararsızım”, “Katılıyorum”, “Kesinlikle Katılıyorum” seçeneklerinden kendisine uygun olan seçeneği işaretlenmesi beklenmektedir. Ölçeğin alt boyutları ve ilgili maddeleri aşağıda verilmiştir: Jinekolojik Kanser Riskleri Farkındalığı: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11. Maddeleri Jinekolojik Kanserlerde Erken Tanı ve Bilgi Farkındalığı: 1, 2, 12, 13. Maddeleri Jinekolojik Kanserlerden Korunma Farkındalığı: 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19. maddeleri Jinekolojik Kanserlerde Rutin Kontrol ve Ciddi Hastalık Algısı Farkındalığı: 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41. maddeleri kapsamaktadır. 1732 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Ölçek değerlendirilirken en düşük puan 41, en yüksek puan 205’tir. Araştırmaya katılanların ölçek puanlarının yüksek olması farkındalık düzeylerinin de yüksek olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu ölçeğin bir kesme değeri bulunmamakta olup, kadınların JİKFÖ ‘inden aldıkları puan arttıkça farkındalıkları artmaktadır. Bu formu araştırmaya katılanların kadınların kendileri tarafından doldurmuştur. Dal (2017)’ın çalışmasında JİKFÖ’nin cronbach alpha değeri 0,944 olup, çalışmamızda 0,927, “Jinekolojik Kanser Riskleri Farkındalığı” alt boyutunun cronbach alpha değeri 0,843 iken, çalışmamızda 0,753, “Jinekolojik Kanserlerden Korunma Farkındalığı” alt boyutunun cronbach alpha değeri 0,778 çalışmamızda 0,551, “ Jinekolojik Kanserlerde Erken Tanı ve Bilgi Farkındalığı” alt boyutunun cronbach alpha değeri 0,708, çalışmamızda 0,676, “Jinekolojik Kanserlerde Rutin Kontrol ve Ciddi Hastalık Algısı Farkındalığı” alt boyutunun cronbach alpha değeri 0,979 çalışmamızda 0,939 olarak bulunmuştur (Dal ve Ertem, 2017). Verilerin Değerlendirilmesi Araştırmadan elde edilen veriler, SPSS paket programı (Statistical Package for Social Sciences; IBM SPSS Statistics for Macintosh, Armonk, NY) versiyon 25,0 kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmada tanımlayıcı analizler; kategorik verilerde sayı (n) ve yüzde (%) olarak, sürekli verilerde ise ortalama±standart sapma (ort±standart sapma) olarak gösterilmiştir. Sürekli değişkenlerin normal dağılıma uygunluğu Kolmogorov-Smirnov testi ile değerlendirilmiştir. Normal dağılmayan değişkenlerin iki grupta karşılaştırılmasında Mann Whitney U-testi kullanılmıştır. İkiden fazla grup karşılaştırılmasında parametrik değişkenlerde One Way ANOVA testi, nonparametrik değişkenlerde Kruskal Wallis testi kullanılmıştır. Birden fazla olan grup karşılaştırmalarında anlamlı farkın hangi gruptan kaynaklandığını belirlemek için Bonferroni testi kullanılmıştır. Analizlerde istatistiksel anlamlılık düzeyi p<0,05 olarak kabul edilmiştir. Araştırmanın Etik Yönü Araştırma Helsinki Deklarasyonu maddeleri dikkate alınarak yapılmıştır. Araştırma için Aydın Adnan Menderes Üniversitesi Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi Girişimsel Olmayan Klinik Araştırmalar Etik Kurulundan ön onay (Sayı: 03/03/2020-E.15229, Protokol No: 2020/012) alınmıştır. Araştırmanın Denizli İl Sağlık Müdürlüğüne bağlı Denizli merkezinde bulunan ASM’lerde yürütülebilmesi için yazılı izin alınmıştır. Araştırmada kullanılan JİKFÖ için Doç. Dr. Nursel Alp Dal’dan e-posta yoluyla iletişime geçilerek izin alınmıştır. Araştırmaya dahil edilen kadınlara çalışma ile ilgili bilgi verilmiş, sözlü ve yazılı onamları alınmıştır. 1733 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Araştırmanının Sınırlılıkları Araştırma araştırmaya katılan kadınları temsil etmektedir. Araştırmanın Güçlükleri Araştırmanın veri toplama süreci Covid-19 pandemisinden etkilenmiş ve poliklinik hizmetlerinde esnek mesaiye geçilmesi, formları doldururken ASM’lerin kalabalık olması, gürültü olması, sosyal mesafeyi koruyarak iletişim kurmaya çalışmak, poliklinik sırası gelenlerin formu doldurmak istememeleri sorulara cevap vermeyi zorlaştırmıştır. 1734 VI.

Yaş grupları açısından anlamlı farklılık saptanan gruplarda, farklılığın hangi gruplardan kaynaklandığını tespit etmek üzere post-hoc analiz yapılmıştır. Buna göre JİKFÖ toplam puanı için gruplar arası farklılık, 50-65 yaşları arasındaki kadınların aldıkları düşük puanlardan kaynaklanmıştır. Kadınların eğitim durumuna göre yapılan karşılaştırmada kadınların eğitim durumu ilkokuldan lisansüstü eğitime doğru arttıkça JİKFÖ toplam puanında anlamlı düzeyde artış görülmektedir (p= 0,001). Post-hoc analizi sonucunda farklılık nedeni eğitim durumu ilkokul olan gruptaki kadınların aldıkları düşük puanlardan kaynaklandığı görülmüştür. Çalışan gruptaki kadınların JİKFÖ toplam ve alt ölçek puanları anlamlı oranda daha yüksek olarak bulunmuştur. Sosyal güvencesi olan kadınların “Jinekolojik Kanserlerden Korunma Farkındalığı” alt ölçeği haricindeki bütün alt ölçekler ve JİKFÖ toplam puanlarının sosyal güvencesi olmayan kadınlara kıyasla anlamlı oranda daha yüksek bulunmuştur (sırasıyla p<0,001, p<0,001, p= 0,006 ve p<0,001). Gebelik sayısı arttıkça JİKFÖ toplam puanı, ilk iki alt ölçekte “Jinekolojik Kanserlerde Erken Tanı ve Bilgi Farkındalığı” ve “Jinekolojik Kanser Riskleri Farkındalığı” puanları anlamlı oranda azalmaktadır (p değerleri sırasıyla p= 0,001, p= 0,002, p= 0001). Post-hoc analizleri sonucunda farklılığın üç ve üzeri gebeliği olan kadınların puanlarının düşük olmasından kaynaklandığı saptanmıştır. Menopoza giren kadınların JİKFÖ toplam ölçek puanı, “Jinekolojik Kanserlerden Korunma Farkındalığı” ve “Jinekolojik Kanserlerde Rutin Kontrol ve Ciddi Hastalık Algısı Farkındalığı” alt ölçek puanları, menopoza girmemiş kadınlardan anlamlı oranda daha yüksektir (p değerleri sırasıyla p= 0,001, p= 0,013 ve p= 0,001). Kansere ilişkin bilgisi olan 1738 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal kadınların “Jinekolojik Kanserlerde Erken Tanı ve Bilgi Farkındalığı” alt ölçeği hariç tüm alt ölçek puanları ile JİKFÖ toplam ölçek puanı anlamlı olarak daha yüksek saptanmıştır. Kanserlere yönelik tarama testi yapıldığını bilen kadınların, “Jinekolojik Kanserlerde Erken Tanı ve Bilgi Farkındalığı” hariç tüm alt ölçekler ile JİKFÖ toplam puanı anlamlı olarak daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Kanser taraması yaptıran kadınların JİKFÖ puanları daha yüksektir. 4. Tartışma Kadınların jinekolojik kanserlere yönelik farkındalıkları arttırmak için kansere neden olan risk faktörlerini bilmeleri ve taramalara katılmaları önemlidir ((THSK Kanser Daire Başkanlığı, 2021). Yapılan çalışmada 40-49 yaşları arasındaki kadınların jinekolojik kanserlere yönelik farkındalık puanları yüksek bulunmuştur. Yapılan araştırmaların sonucunda kadınların jinekolojik kanserlere yönelik farkındalıklarının farklı yaş aralıklarında yüksek olduğu saptanmıştır (Atlas, 2020; Dal, 2022; Gözüyeşil ve diğerleri, 2020; Kaya Şenol ve diğerleri, 2021). Gözüyeşil ve diğerlerinin (2020) çalışmasında 30-39 yaş aralığındaki kadınların, Kaya Şenol ve diğerlerinin (2021) çalışmasında 36-50 yaşları arasındaki kadınların, Atlas ve Güneri (2022)’nin çalışmasında 18-29 yaşları arasındaki kadınların, Atlas (2020)’ın çalışmasında 29 yaşından küçük kadınların jinekolojik kanserlere yönelik farkındalık puanları yüksek olarak saptanmıştır. Teşkereci ve diğerlerinin (2021) çalışmasında jinekolojik kanserlere yönelik farkındalık puanlarının yaş ile birlikte arttığı sonucuna ulaşmışlardır. Fonnes ve diğerlerinin (2021) yaptığı çalışmada kadınların serviks kanserine yönelik farkındalık düzeylerinin 18-29 yaşları arasında en yüksek olduğu bulunmuştur. Yaşlar arasındaki jinekolojik kanserlere yönelik farkındalık puanlarındaki değişikliğin nedeni bölgesel kaynaklı olabilir. Karşılaştırılan çalışmalarda kadınların sosyo-demografik özelliklerinin farklı olması farklı yaş aralığındaki kadınların farkındalıklarının yüksek olduğunu göstermektedir. Yaptığımız çalışmada kadınların eğitim durumunun artması ile JİKFÖ puanlarının arttığı görülmektedir. Çelebi (2021)’nin ve Dal (2022)’ın çalışması çalışmamızla benzerlik göstermektedir. Öz (2021)’ün çalışmasında üniversite mezunu olan kadınların JİKFÖ ve alt ölçek puanları daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Yurtdışı çalışmalarında eğitim durumu ile serviks kanseri farkındalığı arasında anlamlı bir ilişki saptanmıştır (Gyamfua ve diğerleri, 2019; Mbachu, ve diğerleri, 2017; Moshi ve diğerleri, 2018). Nijerya’da yapılan çalışmada yüksek eğitim düzeyine sahip kadınların, yumurtalık kanseri risk faktörleri ve semptomları hakkında daha bilgili olduğu bulunmuştur (Okunowo ve Adaramoye, 2018). Eğitim düzeyi yüksek kadınların sağlıkla ilgili konuları daha fazla araştırarak doğru bilgilere ulaştığı ve ulaştığı bilgileri daha iyi anladığı söylenilebilir. 1739 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Çalışmamızdaki çalışan kadınların JİKFÖ toplam ve alt ölçek puanları anlamlı oranda yüksek bulunmuştur. Yapılan çalışmaların sonucu benzer olup, çalışma hayatı olan kadınların JİKFÖ toplam ve alt ölçek puanlarının yüksek olduğu saptanmıştır (Atlas ve Güneri, 2022; Kaya Şenol ve diğerleri, 2021; Öz, 2021). Nijerya’da yapılan çalışmada çalışan kadınların yumurtalık kanseri semptomları ve risk faktörleri konusunda daha fazla bilgi sahibi olduğu görülmüştür (Okunowo ve Adaramoye, 2018). İş ortamındaki kadınların iletişim içinde olmaları sağlık arayışlarını arttırarak jinekolojik kanserlere yönelik farkındalık konusunda birbirlerini olumlu yönde etkilediği düşünülebilir. Sosyo-demografik durumu iyi olan kadınların hastanelere veya özel kliniklere kolay gidebilecek olması farkındalığı arttırabilir. Çalışmamızda sosyal güvencesi olan kadınların JİKFÖ puanları yüksektir. Şahin (2009)’in çalışmasında sosyal güvencesi emekli sandığı olan bireylerin jinekolojik kanserlerle ilgili bilgi puanları yüksek bulunmuştur. Akkoyun (2020)’un çalışmasında sosyal güvencesi olan kadınların kadın üreme organları kanserlerinden korunmaya ilişkin bilgi düzeyleri sosyal güvencesi olmayanlardan yüksek bulunmuştur. Sosyal güvencesi olmayan kadınların ücret karşılığı muayene olması, herhangi bir semptom varlığında direkt doktora gitmeyi ertelemesine neden olarak farkındalığı etkileyebilir. Sosyo-ekonomik durum jinekolojik kanserlerde insidans ve sağ kalım hızını etkilemektedir. Sosyo-ekonomik durum, kadınların sağlık hizmetlerine ulaşımını, sağlık ve kanser hakkında farkındalığını, belirtileri zamanında çözümleyebilmesini, yaşam şeklini, ek hastalıklarını etkileyerek kanserler için risk faktörü oluşturmaktadır (Booth ve diğerleri, 2010). Avustralya’da 2001-2015 yılları arasında kansere yakalanan kadınların incelendiği bir çalışmada; kırsal kesimde yaşayan gelir durumu düşük olan kadınlarda yumurtalık, serviks, uterus kanserlerinden ölümlerin yüksek olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır (Afshar ve diğerleri, 2020). Amerika Birleşik Devletleri, Yeni Zelanda ve Danimarka'da yapılan çalışmalardan elde edilen bulgular Afshar ve diğerlerinin çalışması ile tutarlıdır (Dalton ve diğerleri, 2019; Singh ve Jemal, 2017; Soeberg ve diğerleri, 2015). Çalışmamızda çalışan ve sosyal güvencesi olan kadınların farkındalıkları daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Gelir durumu iyi olan kadınların finansal durum sağlık hizmetlerine erişimi attırması sebebiyle JKFÖ'nün yüksek olması ön görülen bir durumdur. Çalışmamızdaki toplam gebelik sayısı arttıkça JİKFÖ toplam puanı, “Jinekolojik Kanserlerde Erken Tanı ve Bilgi Farkındalığı” ve “Jinekolojik Kanser Riskleri Farkındalığı” alt ölçek puanları azalmaktadır. Atlas ve Güneri (2022)’nin çalışmasında gebelik sayısı 1-2 olan kadınların JİKFÖ puanları yüksek bulunmuştur (20). Dal (2022) ve Atlas (2020)’ın çalışmaları 1740 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal benzer olup; 2 ve altı gebeliği olan kadınların, 3 ve üstünde gebeliği bulunan kadınlara göre JİKFÖ puanları anlamlı olarak daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Gebelik sayısının fazla olması farkındalığı ters yönde etkilemektedir. Çalışmamızda JİKFÖ puanı menopoza girmemiş kadınlardan anlamlı oranda daha yüksektir. Yapılan bazı çalışmalar çalışmamızla benzerlikler göstermektedir (Atlas, 2020; Dal, 2022; Kaya Şenol ve diğerleri, 2021). Gözüyeşil (2020)’in çalışmasında menopozdaki kadınların puanları arasında fark bulunmamıştır. Öz (2021)’ün çalışmasında menopozda olan kadınların “Jinekolojik Kanser Riskleri Farkındalığı” alt ölçek puanu yüksek, Gökgöz ve Aktaş (2015)’ın çalışmasında menopozda olan kadınların serviks kanserine yönelik taramalar konusunda farkındalıklarının yüksek olduğu saptanmıştır. Öztürk ve diğerlerinin (2021) çalışmasında menopozal dönemdeki kadınların jinekolojik kanser farkındalığı yüksek olmasına rağmen yeterli bilgi sahibi olmadıkları, tarama ve korunma yöntemlerine uymadıkları ve sağlıklı yaşama yönelik alışkanlıkları orta düzeyde bulunmuştur. Çalışmalardaki farklılığın sebebi bölgesel kaynaklı ve sosyo-demoğrafik özelliklerinin farklılığından kaynaklı olabilir. Çalışmamızda kansere ilişkin bilgisi olan kadınların, Jinekolojik Kanserlerde Erken Tanı ve Bilgi Farkındalığı alt ölçeği hariç tüm alt ölçek puanları ile JİKFÖ puanı anlamlı olarak daha yüksek saptanmıştır. Çalışmamız Öz (2021)’ün çalışması ile benzerdir. Jinekolojik kanserlerden korunma yolları hakkında fikri olan kadınların farkındalıkları yüksek olarak bulunmuştur (Kaya Şenol ve diğerleri, 2021). Kadınların kansere ilişkin bilgisinin olması farkındalığı pozitif yönde etkileyebilir. Çalışmamızda hangi kanser türlerine yönelik tarama yapıldığını bilen kadınların “Jinekolojik Kanserlerde Erken Tanı ve Bilgi Farkındalığı” hariç tüm alt ölçekler ile JİKFÖ puanı anlamlı olarak daha yüksektir. Literatürde de kanserlere yönelik taramalar hakkında bilgisi bulunan kadınların jinekolojik kanserlere yönelik farkındalık puanları anlamlı şekilde yüksek saptanmıştır (Atlas, 2020; Çelebi, 2021; Dal, 2022). Kamboçya’da yapılan çalışmada pap smear testini bilen kadınların serviks kanserinden korunma konusunda bilgilerinin yüksek olduğu bulunmuştur ((Touch ve Kyoung Oh, 2018). Yapılan çalışmalardaki sonuçlar benzerdir. Çalışmamızdaki kanser taraması yaptıran kadınların puanları daha yüksek saptanmış olup, düzenli pap-smear taraması yaptıran kadınların, JİKFÖ toplam ve alt ölçek puanları istatistiksel olarak daha yüksek bulunmuştur (Atlas, 2020; Çelebi, 2021; Dal, 2022; Öz, 2021). Kamboçya’da yapılan bir çalışmada pap smear tarama testini bilen kadınların serviks kanseri konusunda farkındalık ve bilgi düzeylerinin yüksek olduğu görülmüştür (38). Kanser taraması 1741 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yaptıran kadınların sağlıklarına dikkat ederek (pap-smear taraması yaptırmak) farkındalıklarını davranışlara dönüştürdükleri düşünülebilir. Çalışmamızdaki kadınların “Jinekolojik Kanserler Farkındalık Ölçeği Ortalaması” 158,34±16,84 iken; Alp Dal ve Ertem (2017) çalışmasında 155,8±17,5, Atlas (2020)’ın çalışmasında 160,31±22,42’dir. Çelebi (2021)’nin çalışmasında 149,26±14,69, Öz (2021)’ün çalışmasında 156,3±13,81, Dal (2022)’ın çalışmasında 148±25,71’dir. Çalışmamızdaki JİKFÖ’nün, “Jinekolojik Kanser Riskleri Farkındalığı” alt ölçek puanı 29,97±4,93 diğer çalışmalarda 28,01±6,69, 29,25±5,16, 30,1±5,1, 30,76±6,59, 29,25±5,16 bulunmuştur. “Jinekolojik Kanserlerden Korunma Farkındalığı” alt ölçek puanı çalışmada 23,80±3,32 iken diğer çalışmalarda 19,40±4,79, 23,02±2,97, 22,0±3,9, 23,04±4,29, 23,02±2,97 bulunmuştur. “Jinekolojik Kanserlerde Erken Tanı ve Bilgi Farkındalığı” alt ölçek puanı 17,30± 2,09 iken, diğer çalışmalarda 15,87±2,97, 16,35±1,88, 16,4±1,9, 16,76±3,29, 16,35±1,88 arasındadır. “Jinekolojik Kanserlerde Rutin Kontrol ve Ciddi Hastalık Algısı Farkındalığı” alt ölçek puanı 87,28 ±12,10 iken diğer çalışmaların puanları 80,92±16,84, 87,67±7,98, 89,74±14,11, 91,1±12,6, 87,67±7,98 arasında değişmektedir. Çalışma bulgularımızla diğer çalışma bulguları benzerlik göstermektedir. 5. Sonuç ve Öneriler Kadınların jinekolojik kanserlere yönelik farkındalıklarını; yaş, eğitim durumu, çalışma durumu, gelir durumu, sosyal güvencesi, gebelik sayısı, ,menopoz durumu, kanserlere ilişkin bilgi sahibi olması, tarama testi yaptırma durumunun etkilediği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Kadınların sosyo ekonomik, eğitim ve sağlıklı yaşama yönelik davranışları jinekolojik kanserlere yönelik farkındalıklarını etkilediği sonucundan yola çıkarak; toplumdaki kadınların statüsünün artırılması ve sağlıklı yaşam biçimi davranışlarının kazandırılması önemlidir. Jinekolojik kanser risk faktörleri, semptomları, erken tanı yöntemleri, HPV aşısı, KKVM uygulaması, jinekolojik kanserlerden korunma konusunda eksiklikleri belirlenerek bunlara uygun eğitimlerin planlanması, bu eğitimlerin farklı görsel, işitsel ve yazınsal araçlarla desteklenmesi gereklidir. Kadınlara jinekolojik kanserlere yönelik farkındalık kazandırmak için sahada çalışan ebe ve hemşirelerin uzmanlaşarak eğitici ve danışman rolünü ön planda tutularak özellikle 50 yaş ve üzerindeki kadınlara eğitim ve danışmanlık hizmetinin sunulmalıdır. Kadınların jinekolojik kanserlere yönelik farkındalıklarının belirlenmesi üzerine yapılan çalışmalar yeterli düzeyde olmayıp, yeni çalışmaların yapılması önerilebilir. Çıkar çatışması Yazarlar herhangi bir çıkar çatışması olmadığını beyan etmişlerdir. 1742 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal THE IMPORTANCE OF DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES IN THE AREA OF HEALTH AND SAFETY AT WORK ABSTRACT Uncertainty about duties and responsibilities, among the sources of stress in the workplace, leads to role complexity. The study aims to highlight the concepts of duty and responsibility and to ensure that the issues are met and implemented by authorities within the framework of legislation. Through a literature review using the qualitative research method, attention was drawn to the importance of the concepts of duty and responsibility in occupational health and safety. The findings were interpreted and assessments were made on the role of duty and responsibility in occupational health and safety. Role ambiguity, which is defined as a person's lack of knowledge about the role expectations, i.e. incomplete information about what to do based on the role, and role conflict, which occurs when it is difficult to fulfill two or more role representations simultaneously and to adhere to another role representation. The importance of the concepts of duty and responsibility, which fall within the scope of safety and form the basis of sources of stress, is emphasized. Suggestions have been made in this study to ensure that the concepts of duty and responsibility, which may cause role confusion, are defined by the authorities in accordance with legislation, and a model form has been produced to provide guidance. In the context of occupational health and safety, duties and responsibilities must be carried out and documented according to the hazard class. It is therefore recommended that the duties and responsibilities are archived in personnel files with notification documents. Keywords: Role Inadequacy, Psychosocial Risk Factors, Duty and Responsibility, Role Conflict, Role Ambiguity 1749 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ Günümüzde çalışma hayatı; çalışma koşullarındaki olumsuz değişiklikler (rekabet koşulları, artan iş yükü ve çalışma temposu, uzun çalışma saatleri, azalan iş güvencesi ve olumsuz yönetim politikaları gibi) çalışanların sağlığını olumsuz etkilemektedir. Çalışanların sağlığını ve iş ortamındaki disiplin ortamını bozan temel nedenlerden biri olarak görev ve sorumluluk formlarının imzalatılmaması veya çalışanların bu hususta bilgilendirilmemesi ön görülebilir. Çalışma formları her bir çalışanın ne yapması gerektiğini ve işyerinde nasıl hareket etmesi gerektiğine dair rehberlik görevi görmektedir (URL 1).Görev, kişinin yerine getirmesi gereken bir yükümlülük iken sorumluluk, size verilen bir görevi kabul etme ve yerine getirme eylemidir. Görev; Yasal veya ahlaki bir zorunluluk olarak görülür. Gerçekleştirilmesi gereken bir görev olup genellikle çalışanın işinin bir parçasıdır. Yani çalışanın yapmak zorunda olduğu ve yapmaması durumunda tepki alabileceği hususların bir bütünüdür. Sorumluluk ise; birisi veya bir görev üzerinde kontrol sahibi olmayı, bir şeyle uğraşmayı içermektedir. Bir şeyden sorumlu olmak ve yetki altındaki süreçlere göre doğru kararların alınması anlamını taşımaktadır. Görev'in en yaygın kullanılan anlamı hukuki veya ahlaki yükümlülüktür. Sorumluluk aynı zamanda bir şey üzerinde kontrol sahibi olmayı veya bir şeyle uğraşma ihtiyacını da ifade eder (URL 2, URL 3).6331 sayılı İş Sağlığı ve Güvenliği Kanunu, işyerinde alınan koruyucu tedbirler konusunda işverenlere çeşitli sorumluluk ve yükümlülükler yüklemektedir. İş sağlığı ve güvenliği mevzuatı kapsamında işyerleri çalışan sayısına ve tehlike kategorilerine göre sınıflandırılmaktadır. Meri mevzuat, 50'den az çalışanı olan ve az tehlikeli olarak sınıflandırılan işyerleri için daha basit yükümlülükler tanımlarken, tehlike kategorisi veya çalışan sayısı arttıkça işyerlerinin benimsediği iş sağlığı ve güvenliği tedbirlerinin kapsamı ve detayı genişlemektedir. Yükümlülük ve sorumluluk biçimlerinin kapsamı da bu çerçevede belirlenmektedir (URL 1; URL 2, URL 3; Ceylan ve Ulutürk, 2006). Bu nedenle her bir çalışanın yapması gerekenler veya sahip olması gereken kriterlerin yer aldığı bu formların yetkililerce doldurulması ve imzalanması gerekmektedir. İmzalanan bu formlar çalışanın istihdam edildiği konumda çalıştığı müddetçe özlük dosyasında bulundurulması ve bir nüshasının da çalışanda bulundurulması sağlanmalıdır. Deneyim sonucu kariyer ilerlemesinden dolayı konumunun değiştirilmesi durumlarında yeni konuma uygun görev ve sorumluluk formlarının mevzuata uygun şekilde yeniden doldurtulup imzalatılması sağlanmalıdır. Bu çalışmada ileride yapılacak olan benzer çalışmalara öncülük etmek ve her bir işyerinde bulundurulması gerekliliğine dikkat çekmek amacıyla Ek-1’de yer alan form hazırlanmış ve ayrıca farklı iş türlerine göre geliştirilmesi önerilmiştir. Hazırlanan bu formun hem alan yazına 1750 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal kazandırılması hem de iş sağlığı ve güvenliği (İSG) uygulamaları kapsamında İSG profesyonellerine rehberlik etmesi hedeflenmiştir. Çünkü formda yer alan bilgiler işverenlere ve çalışanlara ilişkin tüm kural, düzenleme ve sorumlulukları içerebilir. İçerikler tehlike sınıfı veya işyerinin özelliklerine göre şekillenebilir veya sahaya özgü hazırlanabilir. İş kanunu ve ilgili diğer mevzuat hükümleri, çalışanların bilgi sahibi olması veya yetkililere başvurabilmesi için her işverenin bir kopyasını çalışana vermesi ve bir nüshasının da insan kaynakları biriminde özlük dosyasında bulundurmasını zorunlu kılmaktadır. Çalışanların İş Kanunu ve diğer istihdam mevzuatına uygun olarak faaliyet gösterebilmeleri için yürütülen uyum süreçlerinde iş sağlığı ve güvenliği gereklilikleri çoğu zaman ihmal edilmektedir (Ünsar ve Oğuzhan, 2009; Adıgüzel, 2012; Ertem Eray, T., 2017; Tepe, 2018; Sayğan Tunçay ve Çıraklar, 2020; Demirci, 2021; Çivilidağ ve Durmaz, 2022; Eren Bana ve Bekaroğlu, 2022; Altan ve ark. 2022).Görev ve sorumluluk formlarının hazırlanmaması durumunda çalışanların rollerinde psikososyal risklere sebebiyet verebileceği düşünülmektedir. Vardiya sisteminde sorunların yaşanabileceği, çalışanların rollerinde çatışmaların, yetersizliklerin veya belirsizliklerin yaşanabileceği ihtimalleri bulunmaktadır. Ulusal veya uluslararası literatürde bu terimlere sık sık değinilmiş ve açıklık kazandırılmaya çalışılmıştır. Bu yönde kullanılan ve literatür taramalarında kayda değer sayıda çalışmanın yürütüldüğü terimleri aşağıdaki gibi tarif etmek mümkündür.Rol belirsizliği, Çalışanların işteki rollerini tam olarak anlamadıkları ve hedefler, beklentiler, amaç ve sorumluluklar konusunda belirsizlik olduğu zaman ortaya çıkacağı ifade edilmiştir. İş doyumunun azalmasına, stresin artmasına ve işten ayrılma niyetlerinde artış olabileceği ele alınmıştır. Rol belirsizliği, kişinin rol beklentilerine ilişkin açık ve performans bilgi sahibi olmayışı, diğer bir ifadeyle rol sonucunun ne yapılması gerektiği konusunda eksik bilgi olarak tanımlanabilir (Pearce, 1981; King ve King, 1990; Bauer, ve Simmons, 2000; Eys ve Carron, 2001).Rol çatışması, Çalışanlardan kendi değerleriyle çatışan veya birbirleriyle uyumsuz roller üstlenmeleri istendiğinde ortaya çıkan bir durum olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Rol çatışmalarının artması sonucu iş tatmininin de azalacağı vurgulanmıştır. Rol çatışması, iki veya daha fazla rol temsilinden birinin aynı anda uyulması ve başka bir rol temsiline bağlı kalmanın zor olması durumlarında ortaya çıkacağı ifade edilmiştir. (Stouffer ve Toby, 1951; Getzels ve Guba, 1954; King ve King, 1990; Creary ve Gordon, 2016; Ürü Şimşek, 2022).Rol Yetersizliği, Bir kuruluşun çalışanlarının becerilerinden ve eğitiminden yararlanamaması durumunda ortaya çıkacağı ve iş tatminini azaltıp stresi artırdığı vurgulanmıştır ( Pestonjee ve Azeem, 2001; Kurt, 2010; Rohit, Singh, Sangeetha, ve Kumbhare, 2017; Yadav, 2017; Öztürk, ve Gezer, 2021).Yapılan işlerin sürekli olarak iş görülen ve bu nedenle birbirini takip eden postalar 1751 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal halinde çalışan çalıştıran, ya da nöbetleşe çalışan postaları ile tutulan işlemler olarak tanımlanan vardiyalı çalışmaların da görev ve sorumlulukların belirlenmemesi durumunda işlerinde hasassiyet gösterenlerde ağır iş yüküne sebebiyet verebileceği gibi hususlar değerlendirimiştir (Scott, 2000; Shields, 2002; Wright ve ark. 2013).Psikososyal risk etmenlerinin kapsamının geniş olmasından dolayı bu çalışmada sadece görev ve sorumlulukların neden olabileceği durumlar ele alınmaya çalışılmıştır. İşyerleri ile ilgili stres kaynakları içerisinde yer alan görev ve sorumlulukların belirsiz olması rol karmaşıklığa sebep olmaktadır. Çalışmanın amacı görev ve sorumluluk kavramlarına vurgu yaparak mevzuat kapsamında yer alan hususların sorumlularca yerine getirilmesi ve uygulanmasının sağlaması yönündedir. Nitel araştırma metodu kapsamında literatür taraması yapılarak iş sağlığı ve güvenliği kapsamında görev ve sorumluluk kavramlarının önemine dikkat çekilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular yorumlanarak görev ve sorumluluğun iş güvenliğindeki rolü üzerinde değerlendirmeler yapılmıştır. Görev ve sorumluluk kavramlarının belirlenmemesi durumunda rol belirsizliği, rol çatışması veya rol yetersizliği gibi stres kaynaklarına sebep olabileceği aşikârdır. Bu yüzden iş güvenliği çerçevesinde görev ve sorumluluklarının tehlike sınıfına uygun olarak yapılması ve belgelendirilmesi büyük önem arz etmektedir (Sabuncuoğlu, 2016; Adıgüzel ve Küçükoğlu, 2019; Gedik ve Çet, 2020; Öztürk ve Şeremet, 2021).Şekil 1’de görev ve sorumluluklarının belirlenmemesi durumunda neden olabileceği stres kaynaklarına görsellik kazandırılmıştır. Amaç bu çalışmaya bir bütün olarak bakmak ve stres kaynaklarının temelinde görev tanımlarının yapılmamış olmasıdır. Görev ve sorumlulukların belirlenmesi çok çalışkan personel(ler)in iş yükünü hafifletirken çalışmayan veya işini önemsemeyen personel(ler)e de sorumluluklar yüklemektir. Psikososyal risk etmenleri çerçevesinde stres kaynakları geniş bir yelpazeye sahip olmaktadır. Ayrıca stres kaynaklarında domino etkisini de görebiliriz. Yani bir stresin veya hastalığın kaynağı bir diğer stres kaynağına bağlanabilir. Örneğin fazla çalışmanın veya yoğun tempoda çalışılan bir ortamda personel sırt veya bel incinmeleri yaşayabileceği gibi sosyal aktivtite gibi olanaklardan da uzak kalacağı için kendisi sigara içme, alkol tüketme, uyuşturucu madde veya hap kullanma gibi zararlı maddeleri de tüketebilir. 1752 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 1. Görev ve Sorumlulukların Neden Olabileceği Psikososyal Nedenler Şekil 1’de görselleştirilen stres kaynaklarının iş örgütlenmesi ve yönetimi kapsamında kişisel özelliklerin esas tutulması sonucu tedbirlerin zamanında alınması ve işyerlerinin çalışma türüne özgü olarak kapsamının genişletilmesi gerekmektedir. İşyerinde görev ve sorumluluklarının etkili yönetimi için; problemlerin tespit edilmesi, alınması gereken tedbir ve eylemlere karar verilmesi, eylemlerin yerine getirilmesi ve yapılan faaliyetlerin kontrol edilmesi neticesinde olumlu sonuçların alınabileceği düşünülebilir. Liyakat esaslı görevlerin ve sorumlulukların belirlenmemesi durumunda Şekil 2’ de yer alan sorun ve olaylar netice verebilir. Sistematik olarak yapılan mobbing, iş vermemek ve aşırı iş vermek, diğer çalışanlara verilen haklardan eşit yararlanmamak gibi psikososyal baskılar çalışanları yalnızlaştırır ve meslek hastalığı, iş kazası, hukuki, idari ve cezai sorumluluklar gibi sonuçlara sebebiyet verebilir (URL 4). Bu yüzden hem çalışanların hem de işverenlerin bu hususta eğitim almalarının sağlanması gerekmektedir (Akşit ve Gür, 2022). İş sağlığı ve güvenliği çerçevesinde verilmesi gereken eğitimlerde görev ve sorumluluklar hakkında tarafların veya tüm paydaşların bilgilendirimesi gerekmektedir. İşlerin havalecilikten kurtulması ve görev karmaşıklığına son verilmesi için bu tarz bilgilendirmeler büyük önem arz etmektedir. Çalışanların kişisel ve sağlık özellikleri esas alınarak görev ve sorumluluklarının belirlenmemesi durumunda yetkililerin veya gerekli mevzuat hükümlerinin yerine getirilmesi durumunda görev ve sorumlulukları çerçevesinde hareket etmeyen çalışanlar hukuki, idari ve cezai yaptırımlarla karşılaşabilir. Bu yüzden tarafların bilgilendirilmesi ve belgelendirilmesi önemlidir. 1753 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 2. Kişisel özelliklere uygun görev ve sorumlulukların belirlenmemesi durumunda netice verebileceği sorunlar ARAŞTIRMA VE BULGULAR Nitel araştırma, algıları ve olayları doğal ortamda gerçekçi ve bütüncül bir şekilde ortaya çıkarmak için gözlem, görüşme, doküman analizi gibi nitel veri toplama yöntemlerini kullanan bir süreçtir. Sosyal bilimler bağımsızlaştıkça ve kendine özgü araştırma yöntemleri geliştikçe ve nicel araştırma yöntemleri toplumsal gerçekliği açıklamakta yetersiz kaldıkça, nicel araştırma yöntemlerinin sosyal bilimlerdeki etkinliği azalmaya başlıyor ve nitel araştırmanın önemi artıyor. Sosyal olgular, sosyal davranışı belirleyen genel kanunlar üretmek yerine, durumların spesifik boyutlarının araştırılmasıyla anlaşılabilir. Nitel veri analizi, insanların kendilerini ve çevrelerini nasıl algıladıklarını veya tanımladıklarını anlamayı amaçlayan kişi merkezli bir yaklaşımdır. Çalışan merkezli bu çalışmada da bu yüzden nitel araştırma metodu kullanılmıştır (Aydın, 2018; Yıldırım ve Şimşek, 2021).Nitel araştırma, çeşitli disiplinlere dayanan sağlam bir teorik temele sahiptir. Sosyoloji, antropoloji, psikoloji, felsefe, dilbilim, iş sağlığı ve güvenliği gibi disiplinlerin tümü nitel araştırmaya bakış açıları ve yöntemleri ile katkıda bulunur. Tüm bu disiplinlerin ortak amacı insan davranışını ve onun içinde bulunduğu çevresel durumu çok yönlü olarak anlamaya çalışmaktır. Nitel araştırma tasarımı, bir araştırma 1754 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yöntemini tanımlayan ve çeşitli aşamaların bu yöntem etrafında hizalanmasına rehberlik eden bir strateji olarak tanımlanabilir. Nitel araştırma tasarımı, araştırmacılara araştırma faaliyetlerini tutarlı ve amaçlı bir şekilde yürütme konusunda rehberlik eder (Yıldırım ve Şimşek, 2021).Bu çalışmada da ulusal ve uluslararası çalışmalarda yer alan görev ve sorumluluk ile ilgili çalışmalar araştırılmıştır. Ancak yapılan literatür taramasında görev ve sorumluluğun iş sağlığı ve güvenliği yönünden önemi hakkında yapılan her hangi bir çalışmaya rastlanmamıştır. Araştırma neticesinde çalışanların görev ve sorumlulukları ile ilgili çalışma bulunmazken psikososyal risk etmenlerinin temel unsurlarından sayılabilecek olan rol belirsizliği, rol çatışması, rol yetersizliği, vardiya çalışmaları, stres gibi hususlarda çalışmaların sıklıkla yapıldığı bulgularına rastlanmıştır. Kayda değer düzeyde yapılan bu tür çalışmalarda görev ve sorumluluklar hakkında araştırmalara ağırlık verilmemesinden dolayı literatürde bu yönde bir boşluk olduğu ortaya çıkmaktadır. Bu yüzden çalışanların çalışmalarını belli bir plan ve program çerçevesinde yapabilmesi için her mesleğe uygun olarak görev ve sorumluluk ile ilgili çalışmaların yapılması literatüre katkı sunacağı düşünülmektedir.Araştırma neticesinde mobbing veya stres’e neden olan hususlar hakkında elde edilen bulguları; çalışan(lar)ın işyerlerinde yalnızlaştırılması, iş yapma olanaklarının zorlaştırılması, çalışanın yok sayılması veya dikkate alınmaması, çalışan ile alay edilmesi, yaptığı işin küçümsenmesi veya aşağılanması, statüsünün küçümsenmesi, çalışma isteğinin kırılmaya çalışılması, sürekli suçlanması veya eleştirilmesi, arkasından konuşulması veya dedikodusunun normalleştirilmesi, işle ilgili olmayan olağandışı taleplerde bulunulması, kariyeri hakkında tehdit edilmesi ve çalışmamızın konusu olan görev tanımının dışında sorumluluklar veya işlerin verilmesi şeklinde sıralayabiliriz.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal MEASURES TO BE TAKEN WITHIN THE SCOPE OF OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY IN THE TEXTILE INDUSTRY ABSTRACT The textile or weaving sector includes various products generally obtained using animal, vegetable, or chemical fibers. This sector covers the complex process of producing fabrics and textile products by processing and assembling fibers. There were 172,445 occupational accidents recorded in the textile manufacturing sector in Turkey in the 2008-2021 period, and 5% of the occupational accidents in all sectors between these years occurred in the textile products manufacturing sector. In this context, the study aims to contribute to the literature in this field by focusing on occupational health and safety practices in the textile industry and to ensure that employers and employees are protected against work accidents and occupational diseases. In this regard, attention is drawn to the occupational health and safety measures implemented in the sector, and the importance of the measures that need to be taken is emphasized. Occupational safety measures in the environments where textile work is carried out are examined with information obtained from national and international sources. In the study, a comprehensive evaluation of the risks in textile workshops is made using the qualitative research method. Occupational health and safety risks are an important issue in the textile industry as in other sectors, but some risks come to the fore with the use of sector-specific materials and processes. Ergonomic, physical, chemical, biological, and psychosocial risks are the risk categories observed in the textile industry and appropriate measures should be taken against these risks. This study aims to contribute to promoting a more conscious approach to occupational health and safety in the textile industry by ensuring that risks in the workplace are comprehensively addressed. KeyWords: Risk, Textile, Weaving, Workshop, Occupational Health and Safety 1761 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Tekstil sektöründe çalışanlar, iş kazalarıyla fiziksel, kimyasal, biyolojik, psikososyal ve ergonomik risklere maruz kalabilirler. Daha sağlıklı ve güvenli bir iş ortamı sağlamak için, risklerin belirlenmesi ve ortadan kaldırılması için tedbirler alınması gerekmektedir.Çalışma hayatındaki öncelikler arasında iş sağlığı ve güvenliği, kritik bir öneme sahiptir. Bu tedbirlerin ihmal edilmesi, çalışanların hayatını tehlikeye atabilir veya ciddi yaralanmalara yol açabilir; bunun yanı sıra işverenler için önemli maddi kayıplara sebep olabilir. İş sağlığı ve güvenliği alanında, tedbirlerin alınması ve bunlara riayet edilmesi, öncelikle işverenin, ardından çalışanın sorumluluğundadır. Türkiye'de en fazla istihdamın gerçekleştiği sektörlerden biri olan tekstil endüstrisi, iş sağlığı ve güvenliği açısından bir dizi risk ve tehlikeyi içinde barındırmaktadır. Bu risklerle başa çıkabilmek için, tekstil sektöründe iş sağlığı ve güvenliği ile ilgili önlemlerin alınması gerekmekte olup, bu sayede sektördeki iş kazalarının ve meslek hastalıklarının büyük ölçüde önlenebileceği vurgulanmaktadır (Değirmenci ve Bozkurt, 2018).Ülkemizde, iş sağlığı ve güvenliği sorunlarının yaşandığı sektörlerden biri yoğun emek ve zaman gerektiren Tekstil sektörüdür. Bu sektörde, üretim verimliliğini artırmakla çalışanların refahını sağlamak arasında hassas bir denge bulunmaktadır ve her iki hedefi de başarıyla elde etmek zordur. Özellikle küçük işletmelerde, iş sağlığı ve güvenliği ile ilgili alınan önlemler maalesef yeterli seviyede değildir (Özbakır, 2023). 2008 ile 2021 yılları arasında ülkemizde tekstil imalat sektöründe toplamda 172.445 iş kazası kaydedilmiştir. Kaza geçirenler arasında kadın çalışanların sayısının diğer sektörlere kıyasla fazla olması, iş kazalarından etkilenen çalışanların %25'inin kadın olmasına neden olmuştur. Bu durum, diğer sektörlerde görülmeyen bir orandır. Söz konusu dönemde, tüm sektörlerde gerçekleşen iş kazalarının %5'i tekstil ürünleri imalat sektöründe meydana gelmiştir.İnsanoğlu giyim, süslenme, ev tekstili gibi pek çok alanda tekstil ürünlerine ihtiyaç duyduğundan dolayı bu alanlarda üretim yapmak zorundadır. Tekstil ürünlerine yönelik olarak özellikle son dönemlerde talebin artmış olmasından dolayı, tekstil ürünlerinin daha hızlı bir şekilde üretilmesi için çok sayıda makinenin yapılmasına neden olmuştur. Bu da, fabrikasyon üretim çağını başlatmış ve bu makineler de çalışanlar için, yangın, gürültü, tozlar, tehlikeli kimyasallar, hareketli aksamlar başta olmak üzere pek çok iş sağlığı ve güvenliği sorununu ortaya çıkarmıştır (Özbek, 2022). Yakın gelecekte, iş güvenliği alanında geniş bir bilgiye sahip olan ve her sektörde çalışabilecek uzmanların yanı sıra, her sektörde işe özgü uzmanların eğitimi daha da 1762 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal önemli hale gelecektir. Bu, sadece çok tehlikeli ve tehlikeli kategorilerde değil, her sektörde iş güvenliği standartlarının ve gereksinimlerinin karşılanmasını sağlamak için gereklidir (Kökten ve Avinç, 2014).Kişisel koruyucu ekipmanların yeterli düzeyde kullanıldığı, ramak kala, iş kazası ve meslek hastalıkları sayısının az olduğu, risk değerlendirmelerinin yapıldığı, çalışan temsilcilerinin belirlendiği ve gerekli kayıtların tutulduğu ve raporlamaların yapıldığı iş yerleri, iş sağlığı ve güvenliği tedbirlerinin üst düzeyde uygulandığı yerlerdir. Bireysel bilgi, beceri ve yargıya göre belirlenmenin yanında, iş sağlığı ve güvenliği kurallarına uygun hareket eden bir çalışanlar grubu oluşturulmalıdır. Kazalar önlenebilir olduğu için işverenlerin sorumluluk alması önem arz etmektedir (Ağırgan, 2020).Tekstil fabrikalarında makine fazlalığı ve ürün çeşitliliği farklı iş yönelimlerine yol açmaktadır. Ürünlerin ve üretim faktörlerinin çeşitliliği, işçiler üzerinde termal baskı oluşturur. Ortaya çıkan sıcaklık stresi uzun yıllar çalışan kişilerde meslek hastalıklarına da yol açmaktadır. İş sağlığı ve güvenliği önlemleri, mühendislik çalışmaları ve işgücü yönetimi sayesinde çalışanları iş kazalarından ve meslek hastalıklarından korumak mümkündür. Tekstil fabrikalarında yaz ve kış mevsiminde çalışma ortamındaki farklılıkları etkileyen memnuniyetsizlik düzeyinin belirlenmesi, meslek hastalıklarının ve sağlık sorunlarının azaltılmasına yönelik, önleyici tedbirlerin ve teknik testlerin uygulanması gerekli olacaktır. Termal konfor, mesleki hijyen önlemlerine, metabolik iş ayarlarına ve teknik standartlara göre kıyafet seçimi yapılarak düzenlenebilir (Öz ve ark., 2018).Tekstil sektöründe ergonomi, yoğun emek ve insana dayalı, sık sık tekrarlanan hareketlerin yer aldığı bir sektör olmasından ötürü büyük önem taşımaktadır. Oturarak çalışmada sandalye ve masa tasarımının özellikleri önemlidir. Sandalyelerin yüksekliğinin ve derinliğinin ayarlanabilir olması, yeterli sırt dayanağına sahip olması çalışanlar açısından faydalı olacaktır. Sandalyeler, tercihen nefes alabilen, kaymayan ve beş noktalı teması sağlayan yeterince yumuşak kumaşlardan yapılmış olmalıdır. Tekstil sektöründe, işlem yapılan veya incelenen/kontrol edilen nesne ile göz arasındaki mesafe yeterli olmalıdır. İşlem yapılan malzemenin bükülmesini ve esnemesini önlemek için kenarlıklar masalara yerleştirilebilir. Tekrarlayan hareketlerden kaçınmak için çeşitli aktiviteler kullanılabilir. Özellikle gürültü, aydınlatma, toz ve termal konfor açısından uygun olmayan bir çalışma ortamında, ölçümler yapılarak çalışanlar üzerinde olumsuz etki oluşturmaması için önlemler alınmalıdır (Aksüt ve ark., 2021). Çalışma ortamı koşulları; iş tatmini, işin verimliliği ve kalitesiyle bağlantılı bir kavramdır. Özellikle yoğun emek harcayan çalışanlar için ergonomik uyumun sağlanması, 1763 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal yapılan işe doğrudan etki etmektedir. Çalışma ve dinlenme sürelerine bakıldığında, çalışanların uzun saatler çalıştıkları, molalarda ise herhangi bir fiziksel aktivite yapmadıkları görülmektedir. Dolayısıyla çalışma koşulları, çalışanlar için tüm faktörler dikkate alınarak oluşturulmalıdır (Efe ve Efe, 2015). Hem çalışma alanında hem de dinlenme alanında ergonomik uyum önemlidir.Çalışanların iş güvenliği algıları, kişiden kişiye değişen ve birçok çevresel ve bireysel faktörden etkilenen değer yargılarını temsil etmektedir. Küreselleşme ve artan rekabet, değişen sosyo-ekonomik koşullara ayak uydurmak için yapısal değişikliklere uğrayan örgütlerde, asli personel dışında çalışanlara sunulan iş güvencesinin kaybolmasına yol açmıştır. Ayrıca ekonomik durgunluk ve kriz gibi durumlar işyerlerinin kapanmasına, işsizliğin artmasına, mevcut çalışanlar için statü ve maaş kaybına, performans baskısının ve işsizlik riskinin artmasına neden olmaktadır. Bütün bu değişiklikler; durum belirsizliğini artırmış ve iş güvencesizliği çalışanlar için önemli bir sorun haline gelmiştir (Derin ve Şimşek Ilkım, 2017). İş kazalarını önlemek veya azaltmak için, iş kazasına neden olan faktörlerin analiz ve değerlendirmelerle belirlenmesi, gerekli tüm önlemlerin hassasiyetle alınması ve önlemlerin etkin bir şekilde uygulanıp uygulanmadığının belirlenmesi için sıkı kontrollerin yapılması gerekmektedir (Kodaloğlu, 2024).Tekstil, kapsamı geniş olduğu kadar iş güvenliği kapsamından da riskleri de o kadar geniş bir yelpazeye sahiptir. İmalatından tasarımına mevcut olan riskler ile üretimden lojistik hizmetlerine veya tüketiciye erişim sürecine kadar yer alan riskler farklılık arz edebilmektedir. Bu çalışmada risklerin atölye kısmında bir bütün olarak görülebilmesi için şekil-2’deki görsel hazırlanmış ve mevcut süreçlerin yer alması için çalışmalar yürütülmüştür. Tüm kategoriler sığdırılamasa da risklerin bir bütün olarak görülmesi amaç edinilmiştir. Görselde tüm risklerin ana unsurlarını tespit edebilecek başlıkların görülmesine olanak tanıdığını söylemek mümkündür. Çalışamalarda kapsamın genişletilmesi, tehlike ve risklerin tanımlanması için rehberlik etmektedir. Bu yüzden benzer çalışmalarda da temsili görsellerin hazırlanması somutlaştırma adına büyük önem arz ettiği söylenebilir. 2. Çalışma Alanı: Tekstil sektöründe çalışanların karşılaştığı farklı tehlikeler bulunmaktadır. Çalışma ortamındaki tehlikelerin oluşmasından sorumlu olan farklı faktörler vardır. Tekstilde bunlar Fiziksel, Biyolojik, Kimyasal ve Ergonomik (kişisel) faktörlerdir. Vardiyalı çalışma, işyerinde sigara içme, iş yoğunluğu nedeniyle kişisel koruyucu ekipmanların uygun şekilde kullanılması gibi işyeri ortamında tehlikeler oluşturmaktan sorumlu olan birden fazla hususlar vardır. 1764 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Endüstride tehlikeli teknolojik cihazların kullanılmaya başlanması, meslek hastalıkları etkenleri ve sağlıksız çalışma ortamları gibi durumlar yüksek kaza oranlarıyla sonuçlanmıştır. Çoğu çalışan okuma yazma bilmediği için işlerinde ne gibi koruyucu önlemlerin gerekli olduğunu öğrenemiyor. İşgücünün büyük bir kısmı imalat ve endüstriyel süreçlerin oluşturduğu tehlikelerle başa çıkmaya hazır değil. Bu çalışma, tekstil endüstrisinde İş Sağlığı ve Güvenliği (İSG) konusunda tehlike kontrol önlemlerinin rolünü bilmek amacıyla tasarlanmıştır.Bu yüzden çalışma alanı olarak tekstil sektörü seçilmiştir. Tekstil sektörü üretim sürecinden tüketim sürecine kadar birçok işlem aşamasını içermektedir. Tasarım, kalıp hazırlama, elle kesim, elle serim, otomatik kesim ve makine ile serim, kesimhane, dikimhane, ütüleme, paketleme, sevkiyat, aksesuarlar gibi birden fazla süreci içermektedir. Her bir süreç kendisine özgü riskleri içermektedir. Tekstil sektöründe en sık rastlanan sırt ve bel ağrıları, kesme veya delinme, karpal tünel sendromu gibi şikayetlerdir. Tekstil sektöründe kullanılan iş ekipmanlarının çeşitliliği, risklerin de çeşidini artırmaktadır. Kullanılan bazı ekipmanları şu şekilde sıralamak mümkündür: harman hallaç makinesi, şerit birleştirme, vatka birleştirme, tarak, cer, penyöz, fitil, ring, bobinleme, yıkama kurutma makinesi, melanjör makinesi, eğirme makinesi, ikileme makinesi, finisör makinesi, elyaf yağlama makinesi, germe-çekme makinesi, fikse makinesi, tekstüre makinesi, kutlama büküm aktarma, basınçla boya kazanı, boya mikseri, örme makinesi, çözgü haşıllama, kasarlama makinesi, çözgü makinesi, haşıl sökme makinesi, merserizasyon makinesi, termofikse makinesi, yakma (gaze) makinesi, boya makinesi, rotasyon baskı, film baskı makinesi, rulu baskı makinesi, yaş apre halat açma makinesi, ramöz makinesi, hasırlı kurutma makinesi, sanfor makinesi, zımpara makinesi, makas-tıraş makinesi, şardon makinesi, kalandır makinesi vb. şeklinde sıralamak mümkündür (Yağımlı ve Erdoğan, 2021). Bu açıdan, tekstil sektöründe riskler kapsamı geniş olmanın yanında tedbir almanın da zorluklarından bahsetmek gerekmektedir. Bu zorluklar üretim-tüketim ve geri dönüşüm süreci çerçevesinde ele alınabilir. Çalışma alanının tekstil seçilme sebeplerini risklerinin yoğun olmasına bağlayabiliriz. 3. Materyal ve Yöntem Nitel araştırma metodu kapsamında ulusal ve uluslararası literatürden faydalanılmıştır. Materyal olarak görsel araçlar kullanılarak bir tekstil atölyesinin görseli hazırlanmıştır. Merdiven altı tekstil atölyeleri istisnadır. Yapılan çalışmada risklerin bir bütün olarak görsel üzerinde sağlanması ve elde edilen görselin çalışma sahalarında tüm çalışanlar tarafından 1765 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal görülmesi sağlanmalıdır. Çalışma alanına hitap edecek şekilde risklerin mevcut olduğu görseller, birimlere hitap edecek şekilde bir yöntem kullanılarak çalışanlar bilgilendirilebilir. Bu çalışmada tekstil sektöründe ilgili tehlikelerin türünü ve yaygınlığını, sektörürün iş gücü kayıplarını tanımlamak için literatür araştırmasına başvurulmuştur. 4. Bulgular ve Tartışma Yapılan çalışma kapsamında risklerin ortak olmasının yanında ergonomik risklerin ağırlık kazandığından bahsedilebilir. Karpal tünel sendromu ve monoton çalışma temposu sağlık açısından riskler oluşturmaktadır. Kesme-delme işlemlerinde de el kol yaralanmalarına sebebiyet verdiği söylenebilir. Bel-sırt ağrıları ve çalışma alanındaki ekipmanların uygun olmamasından dolayı ergonomik riskler ağırlık kazanmaktadır. Ancak iş temposu ve fazla mesai gibi hususların bulunmasından dolayı psikososyal risklerden de bahsedilebilir. İş yeri koşulları (özellikle ergonomik şartlar), kas-iskelet rahatsızlıklarına ve duruş bozukluklarına neden olmaktadır. Tekstil ürünlerinde meslek hastalıklarına karşı kimyasal risklere de (boya, toz, solvent vb.) tedbir alınmalıdır. Tekstil sektörü kimyasal ürünlerin yoğun kullanılması, aydınlatma ve termal konfor gibi fiziksel risklerin de yoğun olduğu bir sektördür. Hijyen ve kalabalık bir çalışma alanında çalışılmasından ötürü biyolojik risklerden de bahsedilebilir. Tekstil endrüstrisinde işitme kaybı gibi sağlık problemleri de dahil olmak üzere, sağlık açısından birçok tehlike barındırmaktadır. Tekstil sektöründe iş kazaları ve meslek hastalıklarının önlenmesi kapsamında alınacak tedbirler, çok büyük maddi harcamalara gerek kalmadan basit önlemlerle veya yöntemlerle (örneğin; maske kullanımı, korucu kıyafet-teçhizat kullanımı, uyarı ve ikaz işaretlerinin belirgin olması, denetim ve kontrol işlemleri, makine ve teçhizatların kullanım kılavuzlarının okunması, eğitim eksikliklerinin giderilmesi gibi) birçok iş kazasının-meslek hastalığının meydana gelmesi önlenebileceği bulgularına değinebiliriz.Hiremath ve ark. (2014) de, çalışanların çoğunun solunum problemleri, kas tonusunda artış, göz problemleri ve kas-iskelet sistemi sorunlarından etkilendiğini bulgularını elde etmişlerdir. Ayrıca iş güvencesinin veya düzenli çalışmanın, çalışanın uzun vadede vücut sağlığını da olumlu yönde etkilediğini gözlemlemişlerdir. Ancak, endüstriyel tesisler, çalışma ortamı ve iş sağlığı ve güvenliği yönergelerine ilişkin talimat ve prosedürleri içeren Hindistan Fabrikalar Yasası (OHSAS 18001/ ILO-OSH 2001) uyarınca önlemlerin benimsenmesi ve uygulanmasına yeterince sağlanmadığını ifade etmişlerdir. 1766 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Akşit ve Gür (2022)’ de iş sağlığı ve güvenliği çerçevesinde verilmesi gereken eğitimler üzerine yapmış oldukları çalışmada mesleklere özgü olan nitelikli eğitimlerin verilmesi gerektiği hususu öne çıkmaktadır. Yapılan çalışmada hazırlanan form işyerlerinin tehlike sınıfı ve üretim sürecini de dikkate almak gerektiği sonucuna erişilmektedir. Böylece sektör bazlı eğitimlerin verilmesi daha etkili olacağı bulgusu ortaya çıkmaktadır.Kumie ve ark. (2016) da, Mevcut hızlı ekonomik gelişmenin Etiyopya dahil gelişmekte olan ülkelerdeki işyerlerinde değişikliklere yol açtığına değinmişlerdir. Etiyopya'daki işyerlerinde iş sağlığı hizmetlerinin boşlukları ve ihtiyaçları hakkında sınırlı bilgi bulunduğunu, İş sağlığı ve güvenliği hizmetlerinin organizasyonu, sanayileşme bağlamında çalışan sağlığına yönelik artan talepleri karşılayacak kadar dayanıklı olmadığını ifade etmişlerdir.Khan ve ark. (2015), Solunum yolu hastalığı semptomlarının (ateş, nefes darlığı, göğüste sıkışma ve öksürük) yaygınlığı genellikle pamuk endüstrisinin dokuma bölümünde en yüksek olduğu ifade etmişlerdir. Pakistan'da pamuk endüstrisinde işçilerin farklı mesleki tehlikelere maruz kaldığı kötü çalışma koşulları hala mevcut olduğu ve küçük dokuma fabrikalarından (elektrikli tezgahlar) daha fazla sağlık belirtisinin olduğu bildirilmiştir. Bu endüstriyel sektörde iş sağlığı ve güvenliği konusunda, özellikle elektrikli tezgahlara odaklanılması konusunda ciddi iyileştirmelere ihtiyaç olduğuna değinilmiştir.Abraha ve ark. (2018) de, İşe bağlı kas-iskelet sistemi bozukluklarının görülme sıklığının %53,1 olduğu, bunun ise cinsiyet, yaş, hizmet yılı, fiziksel aktivite eksikliği, ayarlanabilir sandalyenin bulunmaması, iş yükü ve yetersiz ışık gibi sorunların sırt ağrısı riskinin artmasına neden olduğuyla ilişkilendirimiştir.Das ve Kathiresan, (2022) de, Hindistan'daki iplik eğirme endüstrileri, kırsal alanlardan vasıfsız işgücünü çekmede çok önemli olan, emek yoğun geleneksel endüstrilerdir. İplik sektörüyle ilgili tehlikeler ve riskler, daha az dikkat edilmesine rağmen diğer sektörlerle karşılaştırıldığında daha ciddidir. Kazaların büyük çoğunluğu hukuki sonuçlara yol açmıyor. İşçiler okuma yazma bilmedikleri için sağlık ve güvenlik prosedürlerinin gerekliliğinden habersizler. Ayrıca İSG'nin (iş sağlığı ve güvenliği) benimsenmesindeki zorluklar nedeniyle, yönetim bunu teşvik etmeye yüksek öncelik vermemektedir. İplik endüstrileri bir takım güvenlik ve sağlık sorunlarıyla ilgilenmektedir. Das ve Kathiresan, (2022) bu çalışmalarında Hindistan'daki iplik endüstrileriyle bağlantılı olarak bu zorlukların her birini ve bu zorluklara yönelik potansiyel çözümleri incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. 1767 VI.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GELENEKSEL YIĞMA TAŞ KİREÇ YAPILARIN ONARIMI Öğr. Gör. Dicle ÖZAVCI (ORCID:0000-0001-9614-3871) Siirt Üniversitesi, Güzel Sanatlar ve Tasarım Fakültesi, Mimarlık Yapı Bilgisi Anabilim Dalı, Siirt Email: dicle.ozavci@siirt.edu.tr Özet Dayanıklılığı ve ekonomikliği nedeniyle duvarcılık, antik çağlardan günümüze kadar sadece yapılarda değil, taş kuleler ve kaleler gibi birçok yapıda da kullanılmıştır. Tarihi ve geleneksel harçların çoğu kireçle yapılmıştır. Kireç harçları doğası ve işlevi gereği hava koşullarına maruz kalır ve değiştirilmesi gerekir. Portland çimentosunun geleneksel yapı malzemelerine karşı kimyasal ve fiziksel bağlayıcılığı düşüktür. Bu durum tarihi yapıların restorasyonunu ve doğal taşın kullanıldığı modern rustik mimariyi engellemektedir. Kireç bağlayıcı teknolojileri birçok bina koruma projesinde önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Bu tür bağlayıcılar, tarihi binalardaki çok çeşitli inşaat teknolojilerinde yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır ve bunlar arasında beton, harç, sıva, kireç ve harçlar yer almaktadır. Doğru bakım uygulamaları, yeniden oluşturulan bileşenlerin performansını garanti etmek ve iyi çalışan parçalara zarar gelmemesini sağlamak için güçlendirme malzemelerinin uygun şekilde kullanılmasını gerektirir. Tarihi binaların hassas onarımı, müdahale sonrasında daha yüksek düzeyde uyumluluk ve özgünlük sağlamak için her zaman, yapılarını oluşturan yerel malzemelerin anlaşılmasını gerektirir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal REPAIR OF TRADITIONAL MASONRY STONE LIME BUILDINGS Abstract Due to its durability and economy, masonry has been used not only in buildings from ancient times to the present day, but also in many structures such as stone towers and castles. Most historical and traditional mortars are made with lime. Lime mortars, by their nature and function, are subject to weathering and need to be replaced. Portland cement has low chemical and physical binding to traditional building materials. This situation prevents the restoration of historical buildings and modern rustic architecture using natural stone. Lime binding technologies play an important role in many building conservation projects. Such binders are widely used in a wide range of construction technologies in historic buildings and include concrete, mortar, plaster, lime and mortars. Proper maintenance practices require the proper use of retrofit materials to guarantee the performance of rebuilt components and to ensure no damage to well-functioning parts. Precision restoration of historic buildings always requires an understanding of the local materials that make up their structures, in order to ensure a higher level of compatibility and authenticity after intervention. Keywords: Traditional buildings, restoration, masonry stone, lime 1773 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Sürdürülebilir binalar bağlamında duvarcılık Herhangi bir yapının en etkili ve önemli bileşeni duvardır. Kolezyum, antik Yunan ve Roma'dan kalma binalar, Orta Amerika binaları ve Miken yapılarının tümü bu malzemeyi ana yapı unsurlarından biri olarak kullanmıştır. En eski biçim düzensiz şekilli taşlardan oluşan kuru duvarcılıktır. Masif duvarın çevresel kontrol kapasitesinin yanı sıra, çevre üzerinde düşük etkiye sahip bir onarıcı malzeme olarak duvar işçiliğinin ekolojik nitelikleri, sürdürülebilirlik konusundaki güncel kaygılar bağlamında, duvar işçiliğini sürdürülebilir bina mimarlığı için uygun bir malzeme olarak tekrar dikkatleri üzerine çekmektedir (Almssad ve ark., 2022).Duvar, birimlerden ve bağlantı noktalarından oluşan heterojen bir malzemedir. Birimleri tuğla, blok, kesme taş, kerpiç, düzensiz taşlar ve diğerleridir. Harç, kil, bitüm, tebeşir, kireç/çimento bazlı harç, yapıştırıcı veya başka bir madde olabilir. Birimlerin geometrisi, doğası ve düzeninin yanı sıra harçların özelliklerinden kaynaklanan çok sayıda olası kombinasyon, “kagir” teriminin doğruluğu konusunda şüpheler uyandırmaktadır. Bununla birlikte, farklı duvar türlerinin mekanik davranışı genel olarak ortak özelliklere sahiptir: yüksek özgül kütle, düşük çekme ve kesme mukavemetleri ve düşük süneklik (kırılgan davranış). Genel olarak antik yığma yapılar, depremlerin neden olduğu yüksek eylemsizlik yükleri dikkate alınmadan düşey statik yükler (basınç davranışı) için tasarlanmıştır (Lourenço ve ark., 2011).Teknik olarak "Duvarcılık", belirli bir düzende döşenen ve harçla birleştirilen duvar birimlerinin bir araya getirilmesidir. Donatılı duvar olarak kabul edilecek kadar yeterli takviye içermeyen bir duvar "donatısız duvar"dır. Çubukların veya ağın harç veya betona gömüldüğü ve böylece tüm malzemelerin etkilere karşı birlikte direnç gösterdiği duvarcılık "güçlendirilmiş duvarcılık"tır. "Öngerilmeli duvar", gerilmiş takviye ile kasıtlı olarak iç basınç gerilimlerinin oluşturulduğu bir duvardır. "Sınırlı yığma", dikey ve yatay yönde betonarme veya güçlendirilmiş yığma sınırlayıcı elemanlarla donatılmış bir duvardır. "Duvar bağı", ortak eylemi gerçekleştirmek için duvardaki birimlerin düzenli bir düzende yerleştirilmesidir. Bir "yığma birim", yığma inşaatta kullanılması amaçlanan, önceden oluşturulmuş bir bileşendir. "Duvar harcı", duvar işçiliğinin yataklanması, birleştirilmesi ve sivriltilmesi için bir veya daha fazla inorganik bağlayıcı, agrega ve su karışımı ve bazen ilaveler ve/veya katkılardır (AB Direktifi (2004). Harç, bina teknolojisi açısından temel öneme sahiptir. Duvar birimlerini birbirine bağlamak ve inşaat sürecini kolaylaştırmak için kullanılır. Harçların yapışkanlığı artırma ve sağlam yapılar oluşturma kapasitesinden yararlanmak için çeşitli inşaat teknikleri geliştirilmiştir. Alçı harçları, yapışma özellikleri ve çabuk sertleşmeleri nedeniyle çeşitli avantajlar sunar. Alçıtaşı açısından zengin bölgelerde yapısal bağlayıcı madde olarak kullanımları gelişmiş ve özellikle tonoz yapımında 1774 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal önemli olmuştur. Kireç harçları, özellikle mekanik direnç ve nemli koşullara dayanıklılık açısından alçı harçlara göre farklı avantajlar sunuyordu. Kireç harçlarının yoğun kullanımı antik Romalılar dönemine denk gelir ve en önemli bağlayıcı malzeme olarak yüzyıllar boyunca kullanılmıştır. Kullanımları, on dokuzuncu yüzyılda Portland çimento harçlarının piyasaya sürülmesine kadar devam etmiştir (Vitti, 2021). 2. Kireç harcı Kalsiyum karbonatın çökelmesi topraklarda (özellikle kurak bölgelerde) ve regolitlerde yaygındır. Kalkerli gözenekli kil aynı zamanda dünyanın kurak bölgelerinde de bulunur. Tuğla duvarlar genellikle yapıların dış duvarlarını, korkulukları, iç bölmeleri, bağımsız duvarları, istinat duvarlarını ve diğer dikey yapı elemanlarını oluşturmak için kullanılır. Duvar işçiliğini kısaca tuğlayla inşa etme sanatı olarak tanımlayabiliriz. Bu, biri tuğla olmak üzere iki tür duvar işçiliği olduğunu ima eder. Derzleri doldurmak ve duvar inşa etmek için kil ve çimentonun kullanıldığı kil işi ve çimento işi olarak daha alt kategorilere ayrılabilir. Duvarın gücü, üzerindeki yapısal elemanların uyguladığı yükü destekleme yeteneğidir. Buna karşılık yatay yükleme altında konumunu koruyabilmesine stabilite denir. Yüklerin duvarlara uygulanması iç gerilimlere ve deformasyonlara neden olur. Harç ve tuğlanın tipi, duvar malzemelerinin şekli ve boyutu, harç katmanlarının kalınlığı ve yoğunluğu birlikte duvar işçiliğinin gücünü belirler (Almssad ve ark., 2022).Kireç, çok sayıda kategori ve alt kategori olmasına rağmen, kalsiyum hidroksite verilen genel addır. Binalarda farklı uygulamalar için farklı türdeki kireçler kullanılabilir ve spesifik fiziksel özellikleri ve performans özelliklerine göre seçilirler. Kireç harcının özellikleri, onu üretmek için kullanılan kireç bağlayıcının doğasına ve ayrıca karışıma katılan katkı maddelerinin etkilerine bağlıdır (Snow ve Torney, 2014). Kireç harcı, bağlayıcı olarak kullanılan kireç ve agreganın (normalde nehir kumu ve su) bir karışımıdır. Kireç harçları çok eski çağlardan beri yapı malzemelerinde kullanılmaktadır. Bunların kullanımının ilk örnekleri Filistin ve Türkiye'de bulunmuş ve M.Ö. 12.000 yıllarına kadar uzanmaktadır. Daha sonra Antik Yunan ve Roma İmparatorluğu'nda rastlanılmaktadır (Degryse ve ark., 2002; Genestar & Pons, 2003; Maravelaki-Kalaitzaki ve ark., 2003).'Yağlı kireç' veya 'hidrolik olmayan kireç' olarak da adlandırılan havada sönmüş kireçler iki kategoriye ayrılabilir: kalsiyum kireci ve dolomitik kireç ve bunların spesifik kimyasal bileşimlerine ilişkin başka alt bölümler. Bu kireçler, 'saf' olduğu kabul edilen, yani herhangi bir silikat veya alüminat 'kirliliği' içermeyen kireçtaşının yakılmasıyla oluşan doğal kireçlerdir. Kalsiyum kireçtaşından oluşan kalsiyum kirecinin aksine, dolomitik kireç, kalsiyumun bir kısmının magnezyum ile değiştirildiği bir kireç taşı olan dolomitin (magnezyum kireçtaşı) yakılmasıyla oluşur. Bu tip 1775 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal kireçtaşı, kalsiyum kireçtaşından daha düşük bir yanma sıcaklığı gerektirir. Bunun dikkate alınmaması, aşırı yanmış sönmemiş kirecin oluşması riskini arttırır, bu da sönme ve olgunlaşma sürelerini uzatabilir. Sönmemiş kirecin gecikmiş hidrasyonu, harcın döşendikten sonra genleşmesine ve dolayısıyla başarısızlığa yol açabilir. Havada sönmüş kireç bir harç içinde kullanıldığında yalnızca karbonatlama ve kurutma yoluyla sertleşir. Bu reaksiyonun ilerlemesi için havadaki karbondioksit gereklidir. Az miktarda nem de gereklidir ki harçtaki ve havadaki nem genellikle yeterlidir. Havada sönmüş kireçler ıslak koşullarda sertleşemez ve duvarın kalıcı olarak doymuş kalması, uzun süre doygunluğa maruz kalması veya su altında kalması muhtemel durumlarında kullanılmamalıdır. Havada sönmüş kireç üç fiziksel formda mevcuttur: taş kireç, kuru sönmüş kireç tozu ve sulu kireç macunu. Sönmemiş kireç (topak kireç olarak da bilinir), kireçtaşının bir fırında yakılmasının ürünüdür. Sönmemiş kireç, diğer kireç türlerini (hidratlı kireç, kireç macunu) üretmek için gerçekleştirilebilecek sonraki değişiklikler/işlemlerden önce fırından çıkarılan malzemedir. Sönmemiş kireç, dikkatle kullanılması gereken oldukça reaktif bir malzemedir. Erken sönmeyi önlemek için kuru ve hava geçirmez kaplarda saklanmalıdır (Snow & Torney, 2014).Sönmüş kireç (aynı zamanda torbalı kireç, inşaat kireci veya kuru hidrat olarak da adlandırılır), kuru bir toz üretmek için sönmemiş kirecin yeterli suyla söndürülmesiyle üretilen bir kireçtir. Doğru şekilde saklanmadığı takdirde, havadaki karbondioksit ve nem nedeniyle sönmüş kireç hala torbanın içindeyken karbonatlaşmaya başlayabilir. Bu haldeki kireç kullanılmamalıdır. Sönmüş kireç, yine kuru toz formunda da temin edilen 'hidrolik kireç' ile karıştırılmamalıdır. Sönmüş kireç, malzemenin işlenebilirliğini arttırdığı için çimento harçlarında sıklıkla 'plastikleştirici' olarak kullanılır. Bir çimento karışımına sönmüş kirecin eklenmesi, ortaya çıkan ürünü bir 'kireç harcı' haline getirmez, bunun yerine kireçle işlenmiş bir çimento karışımı haline getirir (Snow ve Torney, 2014). Kireç macunu (yağlı kireç olarak da bilinir), sönmemiş kirecin aşırı su içinde söndürülmesiyle üretilir. Kireç macunu tamamen söndürülür ve genellikle kireç harcında kullanılmadan önce en az 48 saat "şişmesine" izin verilir. Macunun olgunlaşması veya "şişmesi" zamanla giderek daha ince kireç parçacıklarının oluşmasıyla sonuçlanır (Hansen ve ark., 2000).Macunu tüm kireç türleri arasında en yumuşak, geçirgen, esnek ve işlenebilir hale getiren de bu işlemdir. Macun genellikle kuru hidratlı kireçlere göre daha üstün bir ürün olarak kabul edilir. Kuru hidratın fazla su ile söndürülmesi yoluyla kireç macunu elde edilmesi uygulaması tavsiye edilmez. Bu, sönmemiş kireçten oluşan kireç macununa göre daha düşük özelliklere sahip bir malzemenin oluşmasıyla sonuçlanır. Tarihsel olarak inşaat işlerinde kullanılan harçlar ya sıcak kireç karışımları ya da kireç macun karışımları olarak hazırlanırdı. 1776 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Torbalanmış sönmüş kireç (toz halinde), öncelikle ölçülü çimento harçlarında plastikleştirici olarak kullanılan daha yeni bir üründür (Snow & Torney, 2014). Yığma duvarları değerlendirme testleri Duvarcılık, genellikle harç veya bloklar arasındaki sürtünme kuvvetleri aracılığıyla birbirine sağlam bir şekilde yerleştirilen ve birbirine bağlanan bireysel birimlerden oluşan yapıların inşasıdır. Betonun gelişmesinden önce, 19. yüzyıla kadar en dayanıklı mimari form duvarcılıktı. Ancak kullanılan malzemeler, işçiliğin kalitesi ve birimlerin yerleştirildiği desen, genel yığma yapının dayanıklılığını güçlü bir şekilde etkileyebilir. Duvar işçiliğinin direnciyle ilgili çok sayıda parametre vardır: bileşen malzemeleri, birimlerin az çok düzenli geometrisi, bunların yerleştirilme şekli, harç derzlerinin kalınlığı, duvar elemanının farklı yaprakları arasındaki bağlantı vb. (Garcia ve ark., 2012). Her bir tipolojinin tanımı, coğrafi konumuna, dönemine, orijinal amacına ve ekonomik gücüne dayanmaktadır. Bu nedenle, farklı yığma inşaat teknikleri, yapıyı güçlendiren veya zayıflatan çeşitli faktörler sunar. Düzensiz taş duvarcılık durumunda kesinlikle çok zor olan duvar işçiliğinin nihai mukavemetini ve deforme olabilirliğini tahmin etmeye yönelik tüm bu çabalara rağmen, daha kesin değerler yalnızca belirli bir duvar işçiliğinin önemli ve temsili hacimleri üzerinde yapılan, aynı düzen ve geometrik oranlarda yapılan testlerden elde edilebilir (Oliveira, 2003). Bu verileri elde etmek için tam boyutlu testler yapılabilir, ancak tam boyutlu test programları genellikle çok pahalıdır ve bazı durumlarda diğer sınırlamalar nedeniyle pratik değildir. Daha büyük boyutlu numunelerin çıkarılması genellikle çok zordur, hatta kültürel miras anıtları söz konusu olduğunda imkansızdır. Geçmişte prizma testinin uygun maliyetli olduğu ve tam boyutlu testlerle bir dereceye kadar korelasyon sağladığı kanıtlanmıştır (Garcia ve ark., 2012). Avrupa Standartları (Eurocode 6 - Yığma yapıların tasarımı - Bölüm 1-1: Güçlendirilmiş ve takviyesiz yığma yapılar için genel kurallar) ayrıca bu test yönteminin, duvar elemanının basınç dayanımını ve elastiklik modülünü yansıttığını da belirtir.Bütün yığma duvarların davranışının laboratuarda tahribatlı testler yoluyla değerlendirilmesinin çeşitli yolları vardır. Orijinal yapıdan kesilmiş büyük numuneler veya çekirdekler, yeniden oluşturulmuş duvarların numuneleri, yığın bağ prizmaları ve/veya laboratuvarda inşa edilen ölçekli duvarlar numune olarak kullanılmaktadır. Monotonik veya döngüsel yükler kullanılarak, eksenel yer değiştirme veya yük izlenerek ve farklı sınır koşulları uygulanarak bu tür numuneler üzerinde hem malzeme hem de yapısal testler yapılabilir. Tüm bu olasılıklar, duvar özellikleriyle birlikte bir hasar modunu tanımlayacaktır. Duvar prizmalarında basınç dayanımı deneyleri kolaylıkla yapılabilir. RILEM test numunesi (RILEM, 2004) gibi yığın bağ prizmaları, duvarın tek eksenli 1777 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal basınç dayanımını değerlendirmek için sıklıkla kullanılır. Tek eksenli sıkıştırma ile yüklenen istiflenmiş bir prizmada, harç, ilgili elastik özelliklerinden dolayı, taşa göre yanal olarak daha fazla genleşme eğilimindedir. Taş ve harç arasındaki uyum ve sürtünme ile sağlanan süreklilik, harcın yanal hapsolmasına yol açar. Sonuç olarak, harç-taş ara yüzeyinde kayma gerilmeleri gelişir ve harçta üç eksenli bir basınç gerilimi durumu ve taşta tek eksenli sıkışma ile birlikte iki taraflı gerilim meydana gelir. Sonuç olarak başarısızlık durumu genellikle taşlarda yükleme yönüne paralel çatlakların oluşması nedeniyle meydana gelir (Oliveira ve ark., 2006).Genestar & Pons, (2003) tarafından İspanya'da Palma de Mallorca'daki saray, manastır ve konaklardan alınan İslami, Gotik ve daha sonraki dönemleri içeren tarihi harçların analizi yapılmıştır. Enerji dağılımlı X-ışını spektrometresine (EDX) bağlı taramalı elektron mikroskobu (SEM), Fourier dönüşümü kızılötesi spektroskopisi (FTIR) ve X-ışını kırınımı (XRD) teknikleri, analiz edilen numunelerin morfolojisini ve analitik bileşimini karakterize etmek için kullanılmıştır. Genel olarak kaplama sıva harçlarının düşük oranda küçük boyutlu agrega içerdiği görülmüştür. İncelenen kaplama sıva harçlarının büyük çoğunluğu kireç harcı grubuna aittir. Karışık alçıkireç harçları arasında bulunan kalsit-alçıtaşı oranları, eski eserlerde belirtilen oranlarla iyi bir uyum içindedir. 11. yüzyıl analitik kompozisyonu ile 15. yüzyıl kireç harçlarının karşılaştırılmasında herhangi bir farklılık görülmemiştir. Alçı bakımından zengin harçların kalsit harçlarından çok daha sert ve kompakt olduğu bulunmuştur. Sonuçlar, karışık ve kireçli harçların kullanıldığını, dolayısıyla kullanılan harcın türü ile yaşı arasında bir ilişki kurmanın mümkün olmadığını göstermiştir. Boyalı harçlarda çok renklilik de incelenmiştir. Bulunabilen en yaygın pigmentler doğal topraklar olmuştur. Tarihi yığma yapı restorasyonu Dünyanın her yerindeki hem mimari anıtlarda hem de şehir merkezlerinde birçok tarihi yapıda duvar işçiliği kullanımı çok yaygındır. Bu duvarcılık genellikle farklı tipolojilerle karakterize edilen çeşitli ve çok zayıf malzemelerden yapılmıştır. Bu heterojen malzemenin kırılganlığı, günümüzde insan yaşamının korunmasına yönelik yapısal tasarımın güvenlik ilkelerini oluşturan enerji dağıtımına dayalı süneklik kriterleriyle çatışmaktadır (Angiollilli ve Gregori, 2020). Sismik hareketlerin yol açtığı felaketler, antik çağlardan modern çağa kadar takviyesiz duvarların kullanımını engellemiştir. Güçlendirme sistemlerinin benimsenmesinin, geleneksel depreme dayanıklı ahşap çerçeveler gibi ilkel uygarlıkla başladığını söylemek yeterli olacaktır (Aloisio ve ark., 2019).Yığma yapılar için kireç harçlarının seçimi, bir onarım veya yeni inşaat projesinin önemli bir bileşeni olabilir. Karar verme sürecinde dikkate alınması gereken değişkenlerin sayısı ve materyallerin algılanan doğal karmaşıklığı nedeniyle bu seçimin zor 1778 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal olduğu düşünülmektedir. Dayanıklılığa ilişkin nispeten yeni üretilmiş çeşitli veri setlerinin kullanılması, kireç harçlarının uygun seçimine yardımcı olabilir. Ancak bu belirleyicilerin, maruz kalma seviyelerinin, bina detaylarının ve nem tutma performansının geleneksel değerlendirmesiyle ilişkilendirilmesi gerekir. Bu harçların seçim sürecinin iyileştirilmesini sağlamak için mevcut yapının yapı durumu araştırması esastır (Forster ve Carter, 2011). 21. yüzyıla kadar inşaatlarda sürekli olarak kireç harçları kullanılmıştır. 19. yüzyılın ikinci yarısında Portland çimentosunun ortaya çıkışı, kireç harçlarının kullanımında önemli bir düşüşe yol açmıştır; çünkü çimento, hızlı prizlenme süresi ve yüksek mekanik direnç gibi bazı önemli avantajlar sunuyordu. Son yıllarda Portland çimentosunun bazı yetersiz özelliklere sahip olduğu ve pek çok doğal taşla uyumsuz olduğu keşfedilince, tarihi binaların restorasyonunda kireç harçlarının kullanımı yeniden canlanmıştır (Moropoulou ve ark., 2005). Kalsiyum sülfatlar ve sodyum tuzları gibi çözünür tuzlar bazen Portland çimentosunda bulunur ve zamanla sızabilir. Bu meydana gelirse, yakın çevresindeki malzemelere hızla zarar verebilir. Kireç harçlarıyla ilgili gelenek ve teknikler, sanayi devriminden sonra birçok batı ülkesinde neredeyse tamamen kaybolmuştur. Ayrıca, restorasyonlarda ve doğal taşın kullanıldığı modern mimaride çimento esaslı harçların kullanımının dezavantajlarına rağmen kireç harçlarının yeni kullanımları, Portland karışımlarıyla aynı şekilde işlendiğinden her zaman başarılı olmamıştır. Antik çağlarda ve aslında 19. yüzyıla kadar kirecin özelliklerini iyileştirmek ve değiştirmek için birçok farklı katkı maddesi karıştırılmıştır. İyileştirilmek istenen bu özellikler arasında sertleşme süresi, yapışma, geçirimsizlik ve sertlik sayılabilir. Bu karışımlar, kireç harçlarının modern "yeniden keşfi" sırasında tamamen kaybolmuş, reçineler ve sentetik organik malzemeler içeren ticari karışımlar ise eski tekniklerin geleneksel uygulamaları etrafında çokça "gürültülü" şekilde piyasaya çıkmıştır (Ventola ve ark., 2011).Hem kireç hem de çimento harçları uygun şekilde kullanıldığında iyi performans gösterebilir. Çoğu durumda, geleneksel olarak inşa edilmiş yığma yapıların onarımı için kireç harcı gerekli olacaktır. Uyumsuz harçların kullanılması duvar çürümesinin hızlanmasına ve nem sorunlarına yol açabilir. Uygun becerilere sahip bir bina danışmanı veya taş ustası, önlenebilir duvar çürümesinin ve ilgili sorunların önlenmesi amacıyla doğru malzemelerin kullanıldığından emin olmak için herhangi bir koruma çalışmasında erken bir aşamadan itibaren onarım malzemelerinin belirlenmesi sürecine dahil edilmelidir (Mitchell & Torney, 2015). 1779 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 1. Başarısız çimento kaplamasında kopmanın alttaki orijinal kireç harcını ortaya çıkarması durumu (Mitchell & Torney, 2015). Fiber bazlı güçlendirme sisteminin geliştirilmesi, beton malzemenin sünekliğini arttırmak için çelik fiberlerin eklenmesi potansiyelinin fark edildiği 1960'lı yıllarda başlamıştır. Ancak bu teknoloji, harç enjeksiyonu, güçlendirilmiş delme ve betonarme sıva gibi geleneksel sistemlere alternatif olarak ancak son on yılda yığma yapıların güçlendirilmesi için yaygın olarak benimsenmiştir. Gerçekten de, tarihi yapıların korunmasına ilişkin katı kurallar nedeniyle, koruma komiteleri genellikle tarihi yapıları korumak için yapısal olarak verimli ancak daha az müdahaleci teknikler talep etmektedir. Mevcut yapılara modern ve yenilikçi müdahale çözümleri arasında, Fiber Takviyeli Polimerler (FRP) veya Fiber Takviyeli Çimentolu Matris (FRCM) gibi kompozit malzemeler, Hem modern hem de tarihi yığma yapıların (binalar, köprüler, kuleler) ve yapısal bileşenlerin (duvarlar, kemerler ve tonozlar, sütunlar ve sütunlar) 1780 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal güçlendirilmesi ve onarımı için giderek daha fazla dikkate alınmaktadır. Bu teknolojiler, tek veya çift yönlü uzun liflerle karakterize edilen kompozit malzemenin kullanımından oluşur. Bu malzemelerin, yığma elemanların yük taşıma kapasitesinin arttırılmasında ve kritik gevrek kırılma modlarının azaltılması yoluyla yapısal davranışlarının iyileştirilmesinde etkili olduğu kanıtlanmıştır. En önemlisi, geleneksel olanlara (örneğin betonarme sıva) kıyasla, yapısal ağırlık artışının daha düşük olmasıyla mukavemet artışı elde edilir (Angiolilli ve ark., 2020). FRP teknolojisi laminat ve çubukların uygulanmasından oluşur. Laminatların kullanımı, önceden kumlama ve macunlama prosedürüyle hazırlanmış olan yığma panellerin yüzeyine fiber levhaların manuel olarak döşenmesi yoluyla uygulanmasını içerir. Elyaflar, sertleştikten sonra yeni oluşturulan laminatın güçlendirilmiş elemanın ayrılmaz bir parçası haline gelmesini sağlayan bir epoksi reçine ile emprenye edilir. Öte yandan, pultruzyon çubukların kullanımı, bunların güçlendirilecek elemanın yüzeyinde kesilen oluklara yerleştirilmesinden oluşur. Oluk, epoksi bazlı bir macunla doldurulur ve daha sonra çubuk oluğun içine yerleştirilir ve macunun çubuğun etrafında akmasını sağlamak için hafifçe bastırılır. Daha sonra oluk daha fazla macunla doldurularak yüzey düzeltilir (Tumialan ve ark., 2001).Tarihi yapıların restorasyonunda genellikle duvar harcının değiştirilmesi veya onarılması gerekir, ancak uygun harcın seçimi genellikle sorunludur. Uygunsuz bir seçim, restorasyon çalışmasının başarısız olmasına ve belki de daha fazla hasara yol açabilir. Bu nedenle, orijinal harç teknolojisinin tam olarak anlaşılması ve uygun yedek malzemelerin üretilmesi önemli araştırma hedefleridir. Duvar harçlarında yıllar içinde pek çok çeşit malzeme kullanılmış ve teknoloji, eski zamanların tek bileşenli harcından, çeşitli bileşenler içeren hibrit versiyonlara doğru yavaş yavaş gelişmiştir. Avrupa'da M.Ö. 2450'den itibaren kireç duvar harcı olarak kullanılmaya başlandı. Roma döneminde kireç harcına öğütülmüş volkanik kül, tuğla tozu ve seramik parçacıkları eklenerek performansı büyük ölçüde artırıldı. Üstün özellikleri nedeniyle bu hidrolik (yani su altında priz alabilen) harcın kullanımı tüm Avrupa'da ve Batı Asya'da yaygınlaşmış ve benimsenmiştir. Belki de antik Çin'de volkanik kül gibi doğal malzemelerin bulunmamasından dolayı hidrolik harç teknolojisi gelişmemişti. Ancak özel bir inorganik-organik kompozit yapı malzemesi olan yapışkan pirinç-kireç harcı geliştirilmiştir. Bu teknoloji, mezarlar gibi binalarda, kentsel inşaatlarda ve hatta su koruma tesislerinde yaygın olarak kullanılmıştır. Yapışkan pirinç-kireç harcı, dünyada yaygınlaşan ilk inorganik-organik kompozit harç teknolojisi haline gelebilir (Yang ve ark., 2010).Yeterli miktarda boşluk içeren çok parçalı taş yığma duvarlara harç enjeksiyonu, bu tür duvarların sismik güçlendirilmesi için etkili bir teknik olabilir. Çimento-kireç enjeksiyonu kombinasyonu kullanılarak yeterli düzeyde sismik direnç 1781 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal elde edilebilir, ancak çimento enjeksiyonu daha yüksek sismik direnç sağlayabilir (Uranjek ve ark., 2012). 1990 yılından bu yana, Roma kenti Sagalassos'ta (Türkiye'nin güneybatısı) Leuven Katolik Üniversitesi (Belçika) tarafından düzenli arkeolojik kazılar yapılmaktadır. Sagalassos topraklarında bulunan mineral hammaddelerin kaynağının araştırılması kapsamında, Sagalassos'taki kireç harçlarının mineralojisi ve petrografisi ayrıntılı olarak incelenmiştir. Uygun bir tamir harcı tasarlamak için numuneler ince kesitler üzerinde optik mikroskopla analiz edilmiş ve ardından XRD analizleri yapılmıştır. Bağlayıcı olarak kullanılan kireç yerel Triyas kireçtaşlarından yakılarak kuru söndürülerek hazırlanmıştır. Üç ana agrega türü tanımlanmıştır: yerel Mesozoyik kireçtaşlarından elde edilen kireçtaşı, yerel olarak üretilen kaba kırılmış seramikler ve yakındaki bir volkanik bölgeden gelen volkanik tüf. Kazıdan çıkan kalıntıları çok sert iklim koşullarında korumak için, restorasyon harcının deneysel karışımları, eski zamanlarda olduğu gibi benzer hammaddeler kullanılarak dayanıklılık ve dona dayanıklılık açısından test edilmiştir. Yerinde daha fazla koruma ve restorasyon için önerilen harç, Isparta bölgesinden gelen kırılmış volkanik kaya ile kireç karışımından oluşmaktadır. Bu bileşim orijinal Roma malzemesine çok benzerdir ve donma-çözülme testlerinde yüksek donma direnci göstermiştir (Degryse ve ark., 2002).Minos'tan günümüze kadar Girit'teki çeşitli dönemlere ait anıtlardan alınan harçlar, deniz ve nemli ortamda dayanıklılıklarını değerlendirmek amacıyla (mineralojik ve kimyasal bileşim, tane büyüklüğü dağılımı, hammaddeler, çekme mukavemeti açısından) Maravelaki-Kalaitzaki ve ark., (2003) tarafından incelenmiştir. Kireç teknolojisi ve hammaddeleri çeşitlidir: (a) kireç, (b) hidrolik kireç, (c) kırma tuğlalı kireç ve (d) puzolanikli kireç malzeme. Bunlar, %22 (puzolanik harçlar) ila %29 (kireç harçları) arasında değişen miktarlarda bağlayıcılar içerir. Kalsiyum silikat/alüminat hidratlar gibi hidrolik bileşikler ve çekme mukavemeti puzolanik harçlarda daha yüksek olup bunu kırılmış tuğla kireci, hidrolik kireç ve kireç harçları takip etmiştir. Kireç harçlarında tespit edilen suda çözünebilen tuzların yüksek miktarları bunların parçalanma riskini göstermiştir. Büyük olasılıkla, hava koşullarına bağlı olarak kalsitin sızması, düşük miktarlarda bağlayıcı malzemeyi açıklamaktadır. Harçların ölçülen çekme mukavemeti değerleri hidroliklik düzeyleriyle doğru orantılıdır. Kireç harçları yerel kalkerli tortul taşların kırılması veya deniz kumu kullanılmasıyla hazırlanmıştır. Bağlayıcılar tamamen karbonatlı, ince kristalize kalsittir. Bu harçlar, ince kumların kullanılmasıyla birlikte ortalama %30 oranında bağlayıcı malzeme sağlar. Ayrıca, bu harçların suda çözünen kısmında tespit edilen yüksek miktarlardaki Ca2+, Cl ve SO42, bunların bozulmaya karşı duyarlılığının yüksek olduğunu göstermektedir. Çalışma, tam kimyasal analiz 1782 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal sonuçlarının, harçların asitte çözünen/çözünmeyen fraksiyonunun kimyasal analizlerinin ve toplam harçla ilişkili olarak bağlayıcının ağırlık faktörüne ilişkin mineralojik veri bilgilerinin birleştirilerek elde edilebileceğine işaret etmektedir. 5. Sonuç Kireç, binlerce yıldır duvar harçlarında kullanılmaktadır ve çimentoyla karşılaştırıldığında düşük basınç dayanımına rağmen birçok eski bina, tamamen kireç teknolojisiyle bugün ayakta kalmaktadır. Modern yaklaşımlar, onarım döngülerini ve işçilik maliyetlerini en aza indirmek için daha güçlü ve daha dayanıklı malzemelere yöneliyor ancak bu, geleneksel binaların zararına oluyor. Tarihi duvarların onarımında kullanılan çimento bazlı harçlar, onlarca yıldır makul durumda olan eski binaların çürümesini hızlandırdı. Bu, koruma endüstrisinin kireç teknolojilerini masif yığma binalar için daha uyumlu bir çözüm olarak değerlendirmeye geri dönmesine neden oldu.Fiber bazlı güçlendirme sistemi teknolojisi, mirasın korunması için koruma komitelerinin gerektirdiği giderek daha katı kurallar nedeniyle duvarcılıkta yaygın olarak ancak son on yılda benimsenmiştir. Güçlendirme sisteminin verimliliği güçlendirme çözümünün düşük invazivliği ve orijinal yapılarla yüksek uyumluluk ile birlikte gereklidir. 1783 VI.

Bu amaçla, elektrookülografi zaman serisinden güç yasası üslerinin çoklu-fraktal spektrumunu belirleyebilen, çoklu-fraktal eğilimsiz dalgalanma analizi isimli yöntem kullanılmaktadır. Elektrookülografi, insan bilgisayar arayüzlerini geliştirmek için kullanılabilecek bir biyomedikal işarettir. Biyomedikal işaretlerin yapısal özellikleri genellikle görsel olarak belirgindir ancak bu yapısal özellikler sinyalin ortalama genliği gibi geleneksel ölçümlerle yakalanamaz. Biyomedikal bir işaret, işaretin alt aralıklarındaki yapılar kendini tekrarladığında ölçekten bağımsız değişmez bir yapıya sahiptir. Fraktal analiz, biyomedikal sinyalin belirli türde ölçekten bağımsız değişmez yapısını tanımlayan güç yasası üssünü tahmin eder. Fraktal analizler, biyomedikal işaret işlemede (EKG, EEG, MR ve X-ışını görüntülerinde) işaretin ölçekten bağımsız değişmez yapısını tanımlamak için sıklıkla kullanılır. Fraktal analiz, sinir hücrelerinin aksiyon potansiyelleri arasındaki aralığı, insan yürüyüşünün adımlar arası aralığı, insan solunumunun nefesler arası aralığı ve insan kalbinin atışlar arası aralıklarının ölçek değişmez yapılarını, sağlıklı ve patolojik durumlar arasında ayrım yapılabilmesine imkan sağlamaktadır. Bununla birlikte, biyomedikal işaretlerin ölçekle değişmeyen yapısında uzamsal ve zamansal farklılıklar sıklıkla ortaya çıkar. Bu uzamsal ve zamansal değişimler, biyomedikal işaretin, güç yasası üslerinin çoklu-fraktal spektrumu tarafından tanımlanan çoklu-fraktal bir yapısını gösterir. Biyomedikal işaretin tek-fraktal ve çoklu-fraktal yapıları, belirli bir ölçekte değişmez yapılardır. En yaygın olarak, biyomedikal sinyallerin tek-fraktal yapısı, tek bir kuvvet kanunu üssü ile tanımlanır ve ölçek değişmezliğinin zaman ve mekandan bağımsız olduğunu varsayar.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal MULTI-FRACTAL BEHAVIOR OF ELECTROOCULOGRAPHY SIGN Abstract The aim of this study is to examine the multi-fractal behavior of the electrooculography (EOG) signal, which is an eye movement recording technique based on electrical activity originating from the eyes. For this purpose, the method called multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis is used, which can determine the multi-fractal spectrum of power law exponents from the electrooculography time series. Electrooculography is a biomedical signal that can be used to improve human-computer interfaces. Structural features of biomedical signals are often visually evident, but these structural features cannot be captured by traditional measurements such as the average amplitude of the signal. A biomedical signal has a scale-invariant structure when structures in subranges of the signal repeat themselves. Fractal analysis estimates the power law exponent that describes certain types of scale-invariant structure of the biomedical signal. Fractal analyzes are frequently used in biomedical signal processing (ECG, EEG, MR and X-ray images) to define the scale-independent invariant structure of the signal. Fractal analysis enables the discrimination between healthy and pathological conditions by using the scale-invariant structures of the interval between action potentials of nerve cells, the interval between steps of human walking, the interval between breaths of human respiration and the intervals between beats of the human heart. However, spatial and temporal differences in the scale-invariant structure of biomedical signals often occur. These spatial and temporal variations indicate a multi-fractal structure of the biomedical signal defined by a multifractal spectrum of power law exponents. The monofractal and multifractal structures of the biomedical signal are invariant structures at a certain scale. Most commonly, the monofractal structure of biomedical signals is described by a single power-law exponent and assumes scale invariance to be independent of time and space. However, spatial and temporal differences in the scale-invariant structure of the biomedical signal often occur. These spatial and temporal variations indicate a structure of the biomedical signal defined by a multifractal spectrum of power law exponents. In this study, the EOG signal taken from human subjects is examined by the multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis method at various scales and the multifractal structure of the EOG signal is shown.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Giriş Çoklu-fraktal analiz, ölçekleme davranışlarında değişkenlik sergileyen daha karmaşık sistemleri tanımlamak için geleneksel fraktal analizin ötesine geçen bir matematiksel çerçevedir. Kökeni fizik ve matematik alanlarından gelen bu yaklaşım, meteoroloji, jeofizik, ekonomi gibi farklı disiplinlerde ve hatta insan fizyolojisinin analizinde geniş kapsamlı uygulamalar bulmuştur. Multifraktal analiz, özünde, bir sistem içinde mevcut olan heterojenliğin veya düzensizliğin derecesini ölçmeye, sistemin dinamik ve çoğunlukla kaotik doğasının özünü yakalamaya çalışır.Tek bir ölçeklendirme kuralı veya fraktal boyutla karakterize edilen basit fraktalların aksine, çoklu-fraktal sistemler, sistemin farklı bölümleriyle ilişkili ölçeklendirme davranışları spektrumuna sahiptir. Bu çok yönlü ölçeklendirme, sistem içinde mevcut olan ve tek bir üs veya boyutla yeterince tanımlanamayan karmaşık hiyerarşik yapıların ve değişen derecelerdeki kendi kendine benzerliğin göstergesidir. Bu nedenle, çoklufraktal analiz, karmaşık sistemlerin daha incelikli ve ayrıntılı bir karakterizasyonunu sağlayarak araştırmacıların, bir sistemi yöneten temel kalıpların veya dinamiklerin ortaya çıkarılmasına ve anlamasına olanak tanır.Fraktal analizler biyomedikal işaret işlemede EKG, EEG, MR ve Xışını resimlerinde ölçek değişmez yapısını tanımlamak için sıklıkla kullanılır (Lopes ve Betrouni, 2009). Fraktal analiz, sinir hücrelerinin aksiyon potansiyelleri arasındaki aralığı, insan yürüyüşünün adımlar arası aralığı, insan solunumunun nefesler arası aralığı ve insan kalbinin atışlar arası aralıklarının ölçek değişmez yapılarını, sağlıklı ve patolojik durumlar arasında ayrım yapılabilmesine imkan sağlamaktadır (Ivanov vd., 1999; Peng vd., 2002; Zheng vd., 2005; Hausdorff, 2007; Wang vd, 2007).Çoklu-fraktallar, fraktalların bir uzantısı olarak görülebilir. Biyomedikal işaretin tek-fraktal ve çoklu-fraktal yapıları, belirli bir ölçekte değişmez yapılardır. En yaygın olarak, biyomedikal işaretlerin tek-fraktal yapısı, tek bir kuvvet kanunu üssü ile tanımlanır ve ölçek değişmezliğinin zaman ve mekandan bağımsız olduğunu varsayar. Bununla birlikte, biyomedikal işaretin ölçekle değişmeyen yapısında uzaysal ve zamansal farklılıklar sıklıkla ortaya çıkar. Bu uzamsal ve zamansal varyasyonlar, biyomedikal işaretin, güç yasası üslerinin çoklu-fraktal spektrumu tarafından tanımlanan bir yapısını gösterir.Çoklu-fraktal analizler bu nedenle biyomedikal işaret işleme bilgisayar destekli bir araç olarak önemlidir. Son yıllarda eğilimsiz dalgalanma analizi (EDA) yöntemi (Peng vd, 1994; Ossadnik vd, 1994), bir zaman serisinin tek-fraktal ölçeklendirme özelliklerinin belirlenmesi ve gürültülü, durağan olmayan zaman serilerinde uzun dönemli korelasyonların tespiti için yaygın olarak kullanılan bir teknik haline gelmiştir (Kantelhardt vd, 2001; Hu vd, 2001). DNA dizileri (Peng vd, 1994; Ossadnik vd, 1994), kalp atış hızı dinamikleri (Ashkenazy vd, 2001), 1788 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal nöron ateşlemesi (Bahar vd, 2001) ve insan yürüyüşü (Hausdorff vd, 1997), gibi çeşitli alanlara başarıyla uygulanmıştır. EDA yöntemini kullanmanın bir nedeni, zaman serisindeki durağan olmayan durumların eseri olan korelasyonların sahte tespitini önlemektir.Çoğu zaman serisi, tek bir ölçeklendirme üssüyle açıklanabilecek basit bir tek-fraktal ölçeklendirme davranışı sergilemez. Bazı durumlarda, farklı ölçeklendirme üslerine sahip x zaman ölçekleri rejimleri mevcuttur (Kantelhardt vd, 2001; Hu vd, 2001). Örneğin, <<x için küçük ölçeklerde uzun dönemli korelasyonlar ve >>x için daha büyük ölçeklerde başka türde korelasyonlar veya ilişkisiz davranışlar gözlemlenebilir. Diğer durumlarda ölçeklendirme davranışı daha karmaşıktır ve serinin farklı bölümleri için farklı ölçeklendirme üsleri gerekir (Chen vd, 2002). Bu, örneğin, serinin ilk yarısındaki ölçekleme davranışının ikinci yarıdaki ölçekleme davranışından farklı olması durumunda meydana gelir. Daha da karmaşık durumlarda, zaman serisinin birçok iç içe geçmiş fraktal alt kümesi için bu tür farklı ölçeklendirme davranışı gözlemlenebilir. Bu durumda, ölçeklendirme davranışının tam bir açıklaması için çok sayıda ölçeklendirme üssü gereklidir ve çoklu-fraktal bir analiz uygulanmalıdır. EDA yönteminin genelleştirilmiş bir hali olan çoklu-fraktal eğilimsiz dalgalanma analizi (ÇF-EDA) çok sayıda ölçeklendirme üssü kullanarak, zaman serisinin çoklu-fraktal davranışını ortaya çıkararak daha doğru bir analizine imkan tanır (Kantelhardt vd, 2002).Göz tabanlı insan-bilgisayar arayüzünün gelişimi temel olarak, kullanıcının hareketlerini kaydetmek ve kullanıcının oküler durumunu tahmin etmek için bir kamera ve görüntü işleme algoritmalarının kullanımını içeren bir göz hareketi kayıt tekniği olan video okülografiye (VOG) dayanmaktadır. Bu teknik genellikle hesaplama açısından karmaşıktır ve diğer sınırlamaların yanı sıra değişen ortam aydınlatma koşullarına ve kullanıcı hareketlerine karşı hassastır. Hesaplama açısından daha kolay bir alternatif ise elektrookülografinin (EOG) kullanılmasıdır. Bu yöntem, insan gözünün ürettiği elektriksel aktiviteyi kaydeden bir göz hareketi kayıt tekniğidir (Miyashita vd, 2013). Bu çalışmada, gözlerden kaynaklı elektriksel aktiviteye dayanan bir göz hareketi kayıt tekniği olan elektrookülografi (EOG) işaretinin ÇF-EDA yöntemi ile çoklu-fraktal davranışı incelenmektedir. 1. Yöntem 1.1. Çoklu-fraktal Eğilimsiz Dalgalanma Analizi (ÇF-EDA) ÇF-EDA prosedürü beş adımdan oluşmaktadır (Kantelhardt vd, 2002). İlk üç adım aslında geleneksel EDA prosedürüyle aynıdır (Peng vd, 1994; Ossadnik vd, 1994). xk'nin N uzunluğunda bir zaman serisi ve bu serinin kompakt destekte olduğunu varsayılsın. Destek, 1789 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal sıfırdan farklı xk değerlerine sahip k endekslerinin kümesi olarak tanımlanır ve serinin yalnızca önemsiz bir kısmı için xk = 0 ise kompakttır. xk = 0 değeri bu k'da hiçbir değerin olmadığı şeklinde yorumlanır. Kantelhardt vd. (2002) tarafından geliştirilen ÇF-EDA prosedürünün adımları ve yönteme ilişkin detaylar aşağıda verilmektedir: • Birinci adım, zaman serisinin profilinin tanımlanmasını içerir ve bu aşağıdaki şekilde gösterilir. 𝑌(𝑖) = ∑𝑖𝑘=1[𝑥𝑘 − 〈𝑥〉], 𝑖 = 1, … , 𝑁 (1) Burada x ortalamayı göstermektedir. • İkinci adımda, Y(i) profili, Ns ≡ int(N/s) olan s eşit uzunluğunda örtüşmeyen parçalara bölünür. Serinin N uzunluğu, çoğu zaman dikkate alınan zaman ölçeğinin (veri boyunun) s katı olmadığından, profilin sonunda kısa bir veri kalabilir. Serinin bu kısmını atlamamak için aynı işlem karşı uçtan başlayarak tekrarlanır. Böylece toplam 2Ns parça elde edilmiş olur. • Üçüncü adımda, 2Ns 'lik bölümlerin her biri için yerel eğilim, söz konusu parçalara en küçük kareler yöntemiyle uydurulan m dereceli polinom yardımıyla hesaplanır ve daha sonra varyans belirlenir. 1 𝐹 2 (𝑣, 𝑠) ≡ 𝑠 ∑𝑠𝑖=1{𝑌[(𝑣 − 1)𝑠 + 𝑖] − 𝑦𝑣 (𝑖)}2 (2) (2) eşitliğinde her v parçası için v=1,...,Ns dir. v=Ns+1,...,2Ns için aşağıdaki şekildedir. 1 𝐹 2 (𝑣, 𝑠) ≡ 𝑠 ∑𝑠𝑖=1{𝑌[𝑁 − (𝑣 − 𝑁𝑠 )𝑠 + 𝑖] − 𝑦𝑣 (𝑖)}2 (3) Burada yv(i), v parçasındaki verilere uydurulan polinomdur. Eğri uydurma prosedüründe doğrusal, ikinci dereceden, kübik veya daha yüksek dereceli polinomlar kullanılabilir. Zaman serisini eğiliminden arındırma, uydurulan polinomların profilden çıkarılmasıyla yapıldığından, farklı dereceli (m) polinomlarla uygulanan EDA 'nın serideki trendleri ortadan kaldırma yetenekleri farklılık gösterir. Örneğin, ÇF-EDAm [m'inci dereceli ÇF-EDA] ile profildeki m dereceli eğilimler ortadan kaldırılmış olur. Bu nedenle, EDA'nın farklı dereceleri için sonuçların karşılaştırılması, zaman serisindeki polinom eğiliminin tipinin tahmin edilmesine olanak sağlar (Hu vd, 2001). • Dördüncü adımda, q'uncu dereceden dalgalanma fonksiyonunu elde etmek için tüm parçaların ortalaması aşağıdaki şekilde hesaplanır. 1/𝑞 1 2𝑁 𝐹𝑞 (𝑠) ≡ {2𝑁 ∑𝑣=1𝑠 [𝐹 2 (𝑣, 𝑠)]𝑞/2 } 𝑠 1790 (4) VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Burada, genel olarak, q değişkeni herhangi bir gerçek sayı olabilir. q = 2 durumu için standart EDA prosedürü elde edilmiş olunur. ÇF-EDA yönteminde ise genelleştirilmiş q 'ya bağlı Fq(s) dalgalanma fonksiyonlarının, q'nun farklı değerleri için zaman ölçeği s'ye nasıl bağlı olduğuyla ilgilenilmektedir. Bu nedenle, birkaç zaman ölçeği için 2'den 4'e kadar olan adımları tekrarlamak gerekmektedir. Artan s ile Fq(s)'nin artacağı açıktır. Elbette Fq(s), aynı zamanda m dereceli EDA 'ya da bağlıdır. Yapı itibariyle Fq(s) yalnızca s  m + 2 için tanımlanır. • Beşinci adımda, Her q değeri için s 'ye karşı çizilen Fq(s) log-log grafiği analiz edilerek dalgalanma fonksiyonlarının ölçeklendirme davranışı belirlenir. Eğer xi serisi uzun dönemli kuvvet kanunu ile korelasyonlu ise, Fq(s), büyük s değerleri için aşağıdaki kuvvet kanununa uyumlu olarak artar, 𝐹𝑞 (𝑠)~𝑠 ℎ(𝑞) (5) Çok büyük ölçekler için (s > N/4); Fq(s) istatistiksel olarak güvenilmez hale gelir çünkü 4. adımdaki ortalama prosedürü için Ns segmentlerinin sayısı çok küçük olur. Bu nedenle, h(q)'yu belirlemek için genellikle s > N/4 ölçekleri eğri uydurma prosedürünün dışında tutulur. Bunun yanı sıra, (5) denklemindeki ölçeklendirme davranışından sistematik sapmalar, çok küçük ölçekler için (s10) ortaya çıkar ve düzeltilebilirdir. Genel olarak (5) denklemindeki h(q) üssü q 'ya bağlıdır. Durağan zaman serileri için h(q=2), iyi bilinen Hurst üssü H ile aynıdır (Feder, 1988). Böylece h(q) fonksiyonuna genelleştirilmiş Hurst üssü adı verilir. q → 0 için h(q) limitine karşılık gelen h(0) değeri, ıraksak üs nedeniyle (4) denklemindeki ortalama alma prosedürü kullanılarak doğrudan belirlenemez. Bunun yerine (6) denklemiyle verilen logaritmik ortalama alma prosedürü kullanılır. 𝐹0 (𝑠) ≡ 𝑒𝑥𝑝 { 1 4𝑁𝑠 𝑠 2 ℎ(0) ∑2𝑁 𝑣=1 ln[𝐹 (𝑣, 𝑠)]} ~𝑠 (6) h(0)'ın fraktal destekli zaman serileri için tanımlanamayacağına dikkat edilmelidir. Burada h(q) q → 0 için ıraksar. Kompakt destekli tek-fraktal zaman serileri için h(q), q'dan bağımsızdır, çünkü F2(v,s) varyanslarının ölçeklendirme davranışı tüm v bölümleri için aynıdır ve (4) denklemindeki ortalama alma prosedürü q'nun tüm değerleri için tam olarak aynı ölçeklendirme davranışını verecektir. Ancak küçük ve büyük dalgalanmalar farklı ölçeklenirse, h(q)'nun q'ya önemli bir bağımlılığı olacaktır: Eğer q'nun pozitif değerleri dikkate alınırsa, büyük F2(v,s) varyansına sahip v parçaları (yani, karşılık gelen eğri uydurmadan kaynaklı büyük değişimler) ortalama Fq(s)'i büyük oranda etkiler. Dolayısıyla q'nun pozitif değerleri için; h(q), büyük dalgalanmalara sahip bölümlerin ölçeklenme davranışını açıklar. Tersine, q'nun negatif 1791 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal değerleri için, küçük F2(v,s) varyansına sahip v bölümleri ortalama Fq(s) üzerinde büyük etkiye sahip olacaktır. Dolayısıyla, q'nun negatif değerleri için h(q), küçük dalgalanmalara sahip bölümlerin ölçeklenme davranışını tanımlar.Genellikle büyük dalgalanmalar, çoklu-fraktal seriler için küçük dalgalanmalardan daha küçük h(q) ölçeklendirme üssü ile karakterize edilir. Maksimum ölçek s=N için dalgalanma fonksiyonu Fq(s) q'dan bağımsızdır, çünkü (4) denklemindeki toplam yalnızca iki özdeş bölüm üzerinden çalışır (Ns ≡ [N/s] = 1). Daha küçük ölçekler için (s<<N) ortalama alma prosedürü birkaç bölüm üzerinde uygulanır ve eğer q<0 ise, Fq(s) ortalama değeri, küçük dalgalanmalara sahip bölümlerden kaynaklı F2(v,s) tarafından etkilenecektir. Benzer şekilde, q>0 için, Fq(s) ortalama değeri, büyük dalgalanmalara sahip bölümlerden kaynaklı F2(v,s) tarafından etkilenir. Bu nedenle, s<<N için; q<0 olan Fq(s) değeri, q>0 olan Fq(s)'den daha küçük olacaktır. s=N için her ikisi de eşittir. Dolayısıyla, Fq(s)'nin (5) denklemini takiben homojen bir ölçeklendirme davranışı olduğunu varsayılırsa, q>0'a karşılık gelen s 'ye karşı çizilen Fq(s) log-log grafiğindeki h(q) eğimi, q>0 olan Fq(s)'nin karşılık gelen eğiminden daha büyük olmalıdır. Böylece, q<0 için h(q), genellikle q>0 için h(q)'dan daha büyük olacaktır. 1.2. Elektrookülografi (EOG) işareti İnsan gözünün, kornea ve retinanın sırasıyla pozitif ve negatif kutupları oluşturduğu bir elektriksel dipol gibi davrandığı düşünülebilir. Bu dipolün eksenleri gözün optik eksenlerine göre yönlendirilir ve dolayısıyla gözle birlikte döner. Aslında gözün ön ve arka bölgesi arasında korneo-retinal potansiyel adı verilen ve büyüklüğü 0,4-1,0 mV arasında değişen bir potansiyel farkı vardır. Bu, bir elektrik alanı yaratır ve bu alan tarafından üretilen elektriksel aktivite, gözlerin yakınına yerleştirilen elektrotlar kullanılarak invaziv olmayan bir şekilde yakalanır (Heide vd, 1999; Bulling vd, 2011).EOG işaretleri, taban çizgisi tipik olarak sabit olmadığından ve kaymaya maruz kaldığından, taban çizgisi gezinme etkisinden dolayı bozulmaktadır (Heide vd, 1999; Bulling vd, 2011).Özellikle, bu kayma, edinilen EOG işaretlerine müdahale eden ve esas olarak arka plan işaret girişiminin bir sonucu olan düşük frekanslı bir işaret olarak elektrot polarizasyonu, değişen elektrot temas basıncı ve terlemeye bağlı olarak cilt direncindeki değişiklikler şeklinde kendini gösterir (Heide vd, 1999; Bulling vd, 2011; Huda vd, 2015; Marandi vd, 2015).Bu çalışmada kullanılan EOG işareti Barbara ve arkadaşlarının kaydettikleri EOG verilerini temel almaktadır (Barbara vd, 2020). EOG işaretinin kaydedilmesi sırasında kullanılan elektrot yerleşimi Şekil 1 'de verilmektedir. 1792 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 1. EOG elektrot yerleşimi (Barbara vd, 2020). Şekil 1 ile verilen elektrot yerleşimi temel alınarak kaydedilen yatay ve dikey OEG işaretleri aşağıdaki şekilde tanımlanmaktadır. Şekil 1'de "G" ile gösterilen alın noktası işaret toprağı ve "R" ile gösterilen referans elektrodu sol kulağın arkasına takılıdır (Barbara vd, 2020). 𝐸𝑂𝐺ℎ (𝑡) = 𝑉3 (𝑡) − 𝑉4 (𝑡) (7) 𝐸𝑂𝐺𝑣 (𝑡) = 𝑉1 (𝑡) − 𝑉2 (𝑡) (8) (7) ve (8) nolu ifadelerde, V1(t), V2(t), V3(t) ve V4(t) EOG gerilimleri, Şekil 1 'deki sırasıyla 1, 2, 3 ve 4 numaralı noktalardan ölçülen gerilimlerdir. Yatay olarak yerleştirilen elektrotların farkı olan EOGh(t) gerilimi, yatay EOG işareti ve dikey olarak yerleştirilen elektrotların farkı olan EOGv(t) gerilimi dikey EOG işareti olarak adlandırılmaktadır. Söz konusu veri seti, 256 Hz örnekleme frekansına sahiptir. EOG verilerinin kaydı sırasında Barbara vd. (2020) deneklerden, bakış noktalarını ekranda vurgulanan bir işarete sabitlemelerini istemiştir. Buna göre, Şekil 2'de gösterildiği gibi bir dizi 4 saniyelik denemeler kaydedilmiştir; burada önce denekten ilk 1 saniyede ekranın ortasından rastgele bir hedef konuma doğru gözüyle bir seğirme yapması istenmiştir ("A" olayı). Bunu, sonraki 1 saniye içinde ekranın ortasına doğru karşılık gelen bir geri dönüş hareketi ("B" olayı) ve her denemenin son 2 saniyesinde bir göz kırpma ("C" olayı) izlemektedir. Her denek için üç ayrı oturumda bu tür toplam 300 deneme kaydedildiği raporlanmıştır (Barbara vd, 2020). 1793 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal “B” olayı “A” olayı “C” olayı Şekil 2. Deneklerden alınan EOG kayıtlarının açıklaması. "A" olayı : Ekranın ortasından bir hedef konuma doğru seğirme, "B" olayı : Ekranın ortasına doğru karşılık gelen bir geri dönüş hareketi, "C" olayı : Göz kırpma. 2. Sonuçlar ve Değerlendirme "A", "B" ve "C" olaylarına karşılık gelen EOG işaretlerinden rastgele seçilen bir örnek Şekil 3 'de verilmektedir. Şekil 3. "A", "B" ve "C" olaylarına karşılık gelen EOGh(t) ve EOGv(t) işaretlerinden bir örnek. EOG veri setinden rastgele seçilen ve Şekil 3'de görülen EOGh(t) ve EOGv(t) işaretlerinin Ns=1 için, (1) denklemi ile hesaplanan Y(i) profili Şekil 4 'de görülmektedir. Kaydedilen EOG işaretlerinin sayısının çokluğu nedeniyle, basitlik adına, bu noktadan itibaren "C" olayını içeren EOGh(t) işaretinin analizi yapılacaktır. Şekil 5 'den görüleceği üzere, (2) denklemi gereğince "C" olayını içeren EOGh(t) işaretine, s=40 için m=1, 2 ve 3. dereceden polinomlar uydurulmuştur. Farklı m dereceleri için varyansın değiştiği görülmektedir. Bu durum, ÇF-EDA yönteminin doğal bir sonucudur. 1794 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 4. Ns=1 için, (1) denklemi ile hesaplanan Y(i) profili. Şekil 5. s=40 için, her bir örtüşmeyen v parçasına 1, 2 ve 3. dereceden polinomlarla uydurulan yv(i) verisi (kırmızı noktalı çizgi) ile Y(i) profilindeki her bir parça için 1 F2(v,s) (kırmızı düz çizgi). "C" olayını içeren EOGh(t) işareti ile ilgili olarak, m=1dereceli polinom ve s=4, 8, 16, 32, 64 ve 128 parça boyutları için hesaplanan F2(v,s) değerlerinin değişimi Şekil 6 'da görülmektedir. Şekil 6 'da görüleceği üzere, F2(v,s) genliği küçülen s için azalmaktadır. 1795 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 6. "C" olayını içeren EOGh(t) işaretinin, m=1dereceli polinom ve s=4, 8, 16, 32, 64 ve 128 bölüm boyutları için hesaplanan F2(v,s) değerleri. Şekil 7. "C" olayını içeren EOGh(t) işareti ile ilgili olarak; q dereceli Fq(s) ve s=8-64 değerleri için log-log çizimi (noktalar) ve bunlara karşılık gelen doğrusal polinom regresyonu (düz çizgiler). Şekil 7'den görüleceği üzere, farklı s değerleri için hesaplanan q dereceli Fq(s) değerleri, loglog çiziminde, eğimleri birbirinden farklı olan doğrular üretmektedir. Bu sonuç, EOG işaretinin durağan olmayan doğası ve çoklu-fraktal yapısının bir göstergesi durumundadır. Bu sonuçları kullanarak elde edilen Hq(q) Hurst üstellerinin q 'ya bağlı grafiği Şekil 8 'de görülmektedir. 1796 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Şekil 8. "C" olayını içeren EOGh(t) işareti ile ilgili olarak; q=-5 ve 5 aralığı için Hq(q) Hurst üsteli. Şekil 8 ile verilen Hq(q) Hurst üsteli grafiği, q 'ya bağlı olarak Hurst üstellerinin sabit olmadığını ve azaldığını açık bir şekilde göstermektedir. Bu durum çoklu-fraktal yapıya sahip zaman serilerinin bir özelliğidir. Dolayısıyla, "C" olayını içeren EOGh(t) işareti üzerinden yapılan analiz, EOG işaretinin çoklu-fraktal davranışının bir delilidir. Tüm EOG işaretlerinin analizinde benzer sonuçlara ulaşılmıştır.Bu çalışmada, ÇF-EDA yöntemi kullanılarak, farklı veri ölçekleri için (s=4, 8, 16, 32, 64) EOG işareti eğiliminden arındırıldıktan sonra, q 'ya bağlı olarak Hq(q) Hurst üstelleri elde edilmiştir. Hurst üstelleri q'ya bağlı olarak değiştiğinden, EEG, EKG gibi EOG işaretinin de çoklu-fraktal bir davranışa sahip olduğu gösterilmiştir. 1797 VI.

NiO, ferromanyetik malzemeler, p-tipi şeffaf iletken film, elektrokromik görüntüleme cihazlarında ve kimyasal sensörlerde fonksiyonel bir sensör katmanı olarak uygulama alanı bulmaktadır. Saçtırma, ince film biriktirmek amacıyla kullanılan bir fiziksel buhar biriktirme (FBB) yöntemidir. Bu yöntem, malzemenin, biri kaynak olan bir "hedeften" cam gibi bir "alt katmana" saçtırılmasını içerir. Saçtırma, yarı iletken endüstrisinde, entegre devre işlemede çeşitli malzemelerin ince filmlerini biriktirmek için yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Optik uygulamalar için cam üzerine ince yansıma önleyici kaplamalar da saçtırma yoluyla biriktirilir. Saçtırma yönteminin en eski ticari uygulamalarından biri bilgisayar sabit disklerinin üretimidir. Kullanılan düşük alttaş sıcaklıkları nedeniyle saçtırma, ince film transistör üretiminde temas metallerini biriktirmek için ideal bir yöntemdir. Reaktif saçtırmada, hedef malzemeden saçtırılan parçacıklar (Ni), belirli bir alttaş üzerinde (cam) farklı bileşime sahip bir filmin biriktirilmesini amaçlayan kimyasal bir reaksiyona girer. Parçacıkların maruz kaldığı kimyasal reaksiyon, saçtırma odasına verilen oksijen gibi reaktif bir gazla gerçekleşerek oksit filmlerin üretilmesini sağlar. Yöntemde ilave bir unsurun, yani reaktif gazın eklenmesi, arzu edilen ince film birikmesi üzerinde önemli bir etkiye sahiptir ve ideal çalışma noktalarının bulunmasını zorlaştırır. Bu şekilde, reaktif bazlı saçtırma işlemlerinin büyük çoğunluğu, histerezis benzeri bir davranışla karakterize edilir, dolayısıyla ilgili ilave soygaz, basınç ve sıcaklık parametrelerinin uygun şekilde kontrol edilmesini gerektirir. Reaktif saçtırma yoluyla ince film birikimini kontrol eden birçok parametrenin varlığı, bunu karmaşık bir süreç haline getirir, ancak aynı zamanda oluşan ince filmin büyümesi ve mikro yapısı üzerinde büyük ölçüde kontrol sağlar. Bu çalışmada, hedef olarak yüksek saflıkta Ni hedef varlığında, Argon gazı ile farklı oranlarda karıştırılmış Oksijen (reaktif gaz), NiO ince film üretimi için kullanılmıştır. Basınç, sıcaklık ve plazmanın akım sınırı sabit tutularak üretilen NiO ince filmlerin karakterizasyonu, optik geçirgenlik, yansıma, kaplama kalınlığı ve iletkenlik ölçümleri yapılarak optimize edilmiştir.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal REACTIVE NiO THIN FILM COATING APPLICATION BY DC MAGNETRON SPOTTING METHOD Abstract This study is about the application of reactive NiO thin film coating on glass substrate by DC Magnetron Sputtering method. NiO finds application in ferromagnetic materials, p-type transparent conductive film, electrochromic imaging devices and chemical sensors as a functional sensor layer. Sputtering is a physical vapor deposition method used to deposit thin films. This method involves sputtering material from a “target” one of which is the source, onto a “substrate” such as glass. Sputtering is widely used in the semiconductor industry to deposit thin films of various materials in integrated circuit processing. For optical applications, thin anti-reflective coatings are also deposited on glass by sputtering. One of the oldest commercial applications of the sputtering method is in the production of computer hard disks. Due to the low substrate temperatures used, sputtering is an ideal method to deposit contact metals in thinfilm transistor fabrication. In reactive sputtering, particles sputtered from the target material (Ni) undergo a chemical reaction aimed at the deposition of a film of different composition on a specific substrate (glass). The chemical reaction that the particles are exposed to occurs with a reactive gas such as oxygen supplied to the sputtering chamber, resulting in the production of oxide films. The introduction of an additional element in the method, namely reactive gas, has a significant impact on the desired thin film deposition and makes it difficult to find ideal operating points. In this way, the vast majority of reactive sputtering processes are characterized by a hysteresis-like behavior, thus requiring appropriate control of the additional inert gas, pressure and temperature parameters involved. The existence of many parameters controlling thin film deposition by reactive sputtering makes this a complex process, but also provides a large degree of control over the growth and microstructure of the resulting thin film. In this study, Oxygen (reactive gas) mixed with Argon gas in different proportions was used to produce NiO thin film in the presence of high purity Ni target as the target. The characterization of NiO thin films produced by keeping the pressure, temperature and plasma current limit constant was optimized by measuring optical transmittance, reflectance, coating thickness and conductivity.

(Eds.), (2015).Reaktif saçtırma, hem saçtırılan hedef malzemeyle hem de hedef yüzeyle kütlesel reaksiyona giren kimyasal olarak reaktif gazların varlığında hedeflerin saçtırılması olarak tanımlanabilir. Reaktif saçtırma, oksitler, nitrürler, karbürler, florürler veya arsenitler (Graham vd., 1994) dahil olmak üzere çok çeşitli bileşik ve alaşım ince filmlerinin biriktirilmesi için günümüzün yeni malzeme özellikleri arayışında çok popüler bir teknik haline gelmiştir. Reaktif olmayan saçtırma yöntemi ile üretilen filmlerin gelişmiş özelliklerinin yanında, temel hedeflerden (yani tek bir öğeden oluşan bir hedeften) DC reaktif saçtırmanın popülaritesinin artması, birkaç faktöre atfedilebilir: (a) Endüstriyel ölçekte (Rizk vd., 1988; Vossen vd., 1991) yüksek biriktirme hızlarında ve kontrol edilebilir bileşime (Larsson vd., 1988) sahip ince bileşik filmler üretme kapasitesine sahiptir. (b) elementsel hedefler genellikle daha kolay saflaştırılır ve dolayısıyla yüksek saflıkta filmler üretilebilir (Okamoto ve Serikawa, 1986); (c) metalik hedefler elektriksel olarak iletken olduğundan RF sistemlerinin karmaşıklığı ve pahalılığına gerek kalmayabilir ve dolayısıyla DC güç uygulanabilir; (d) temel hedeflerin işlenmesi genellikle kolaydır; (e) metalik hedefler termal olarak iletkendir, bu da bu hedeflerin soğutulmasını daha verimli hale getirir. Böylece uygulanan gücün aralığı genişletilebilir; hedefte çatlama korkusu olmadan 50 W/cm2 ve üstüne kadar çıkılabilir; ve (f) ince filmler 300 C'nin altındaki sıcaklıklarda biriktirilebilir (Kadlec vd, 1986).Reaktif sıçratma kavramsal olarak basit olmasına rağmen aslında birbirine bağlı birçok parametreyi içeren karmaşık ve doğrusal olmayan bir süreçtir (Tsiogas ve Avaritsiotis, 1992). Hem katot yüzeyinde hem de alttaşta reaktif gazın varlığı, reaktif gazın yalnızca yoğunlaşan malzemeyle değil aynı zamanda katot yüzeyiyle de güçlü etkileşimlerine neden olur; buna "hedef zehirlenmesi" denir. Bu katot reaksiyonlarının, belirli bir reaktif gaz akışı hızında aniden arttığı görülmektedir. Reaktif gazın akışı kontrol altında tutulursa, bu tür reaksiyonlarda, plazmanın empedansında bir değişiklik, sistem basıncında veya daha kesin olarak reaktif gaz basıncında ani bir artış, biriktirme oranında ciddi bir düşüş ve filmde metal açısından zenginden 1802 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal gaz açısından zengine geçiş, yani stokiyometride bir değişiklik gözlenebilir. Bu nedenle, reaktif gazın sağlanmasıyla kontrol edilen reaktif saçtırma işlemleri oldukça karmaşık bir davranış sergiler (Glocker ve Shah, 2018).Bu çalışma, DC Magnetron Saçtırma yöntemi ile cam alttaş üzerine reaktif NiO ince film kaplama uygulamasını konu etmektedir. NiO, ferromanyetik malzemeler (Fujii vd., 1996), p-tipi şeffaf iletken film (Sato vd, 1993), elektrokromik görüntüleme cihazlarında (Yoshimura vd, 1995) ve kimyasal sensörlerde fonksiyonel bir sensör katmanı (Bögner vd., 1998) olarak uygulama alanı bulmaktadır. Reaktif saçtırma yoluyla ince film birikimini kontrol eden birçok parametrenin varlığı, bu yöntemi karmaşık bir süreç haline getirir, ancak aynı zamanda oluşan ince filmin büyümesi ve mikro yapısı üzerinde büyük ölçüde kontrol sağlar (Glocker ve Shah, 2018). Bu çalışmada, hedef olarak yüksek saflıkta Ni hedef varlığında, Argon gazı ile karıştırılmış Oksijen (reaktif gaz), reaktif NiO ince film üretimi için kullanılmıştır. 1. Yöntem 1.1. Reaktif Saçtırma Yöntemi Benzerliklere rağmen reaktif saçtırma işlemi, temel soygaz saçtırma işleminden önemli ölçüde farklı davranır. Davranıştaki bu büyük farklılığın temel nedeni, reaktif saçtırmaya dayalı biriktirme prosesinin, reaktif gazın kısmi basıncına son derece duyarlı olmasıdır. Bu kısmi basınç, hem katoda sağlanan elektrik gücünden hem de reaktif gazın beslenmesindeki değişikliklerden etkilenir. İlk bakışta bu çok büyük bir sorun gibi görünmeyebilir. Bununla birlikte, bu parametrelerin etkileşim şekli, reaktif saçtırma işleminin doğrusal olmayan bir şekilde davranmasına ve çoğu durumda histerezis etkileri sergilemesine neden olur (Glocker ve Shah, 2018).Reaktif saçtırmada, hedef malzemeden saçtırılan parçacıklar, belirli bir alttaş üzerinde farklı bileşime sahip bir filmin biriktirilmesini amaçlayan kimyasal bir reaksiyona girer. Parçacıkların maruz kaldığı kimyasal reaksiyon, saçtırma odasına verilen oksijen veya nitrojen gibi reaktif bir gazla gerçekleşir ve sırasıyla oksit ve nitrür filmlerin üretilmesini sağlar, Şekil 1. Proseste ilave bir unsurun, yani reaktif gazın eklenmesi, arzu edilen çökeltmeler üzerinde önemli bir etkiye sahiptir ve ideal çalışma noktalarının bulunmasını zorlaştırır. Bu şekilde, reaktif bazlı saçtırma işlemlerinin büyük çoğunluğu, histerezis benzeri bir davranışla karakterize edilir ve dolayısıyla ilgili parametrelerin uygun şekilde kontrol edilmesini gerektirir (Glocker ve Shah, 2018). 1803 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal DC Güç Hedef Ar Pompa Reaktif Gaz Alttaş Şekil 1. Reaktif saçtırma yönteminin şematik çizimi. 1.2 Reaktif Saçtırma Yöntemindeki Kararsızlıklar Şekil 2, reaktif saçtırma prosesi (işlem sırasında sabit akımla gerçekleştirilir) için saçtırma erozyon hızına karşı reaktif gaz beslemesine ilişkin tipik bir deneysel proses eğrisini göstermektedir. Bu eğrinin karakteristik özelliği histerezis etkisi sergilemesidir. Reaktif gazın beslenmesi ile birikme oranı aynı değerde azalmaz ve artmaz. Azalma ve artış arasındaki ayrım genişliği histerezis bölgesinin genişliğini belirtir (Glocker ve Shah, 2018). Şekil 2. Reaktif saçtırma işlemi için tipik bir deneysel eğri. Saçtırılmış metal atomlarından kaynaklanan optik emisyon (OE), saçtırma erozyon hızını temsil eder. Qtoplam, dakika başına standart santimetreküp (sccm) cinsinden ifade edilir. Kısmi basınç ile reaktif gazın besleme hızı arasındaki ilişki için de karşılık gelen bir histerezis etkisi gözlemlenir, Şekil 3. Bu şekil, reaktif gaz beslemesinin arttırılması ve azaltılması arasındaki farkı açıkça göstermektedir. Reaktif gaz beslemesinin artış dizisi sırasında reaktif gazın kısmi basıncı, histerezis genişliğinin üst sınır değerine ulaşana kadar çok düşük bir seviyede kalır. Reaktif gaz beslemesinin azalması sırasında kısmi basınç, histerezis bölgesinde gazın artması durumuna göre önemli ölçüde daha yüksek kalır. Bu, artış dizisi sırasında bileşik oluşumu için daha fazla gaz tüketildiğine işaret etmektedir. Bu, karşılık gelen diziler için saçtırma erozyon hızı eğrisinin karşılaştırılması yoluyla anlaşılabilir. Daha yüksek saçtırma erozyon oranı, bileşik kaplamalar oluşturmak için daha fazla reaktif gaza ihtiyaç duyar. 1804 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Histerezis etkisi reaktif saçtırma sistemlerinde en önemli sorunlardan biridir. (Glocker ve Shah, 2018). Şekil 3. Şekil 1'deki eğriye karşılık gelen reaktif gazın kısmi basıncı. Bu nedenlerle, reaktif saçtırma işleminin sonucunun tahmin edilebilmesi için güvenilir bir modele ihtiyaç vardır. 1.3 Reaktif Saçtırma Yönteminin Modellenmesi İlk kez 1987'de Uppsala Üniversitesi'nde Berg ve çalışma arkadaşları tarafından önerilen, 'Berg modeli' olarak adlandırılan temel reaktif saçtırma prosesi tanımlanmıştır ve aşağıda açıklanmaktadır (Berg vd., 1987). Bu model yoluyla; biriktirme oranındaki, biriktirilen filmin bileşimindeki, reaktif gazın kısmi basıncındaki, hedef yüzeyin reaktif gaz tarafından 'zehirlenmesini', histerezis bölgesinin genişliğini ve konumunun yanı sıra hedef yüzeydeki ciddi değişiklikleri tahmin etmek mümkündür. Şekil 4. Reaktif saçtırma işleminde saçtırılan malzemenin hedeften alttaşa taşınmasının gösterimi (Berg vd., 1987). Berg modeli Şekil 4 ile gösterilen ve aşağıda tanımlanan varsayımları içermektedir : • Hedef, elemental bir metal malzemedir (Ni, Al, Cu, Ti vb.). • Yalnızca soy gazdan gelen iyonlar hedefin saçtırma erozyonuna katkıda bulunur. Reaktif gazdan gelen iyonların saçtırma katkısı ihmal edilmiştir. 1805 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal • Hedef yüzeyden saçtırılan bileşik molekülleri, moleküller halinde biriktirilir. • Hedef akımı tamamen soy gazdaki iyonlar tarafından taşınır. Hedeften yayılan ikincil elektronların katkısı ihmal edilir. • Hedefteki iyon akımı hedef yüzeyine (At) eşit olarak dağılmıştır. • Hedef yüzeyden saçtırılarak aşındırılan malzemenin tümü, 'toplayan' As alttaş yüzeyinde eşit şekilde biriktirilmektedir. Bu 'toplayan' yüzey hem alttaş yüzeyini hem de vakum odasındaki tüm diğer alıcı yüzeyleri temsil eder. • İşlem sırasında, hedef metal yüzeyinin bir kısmı reaktif gazla reaksiyona girecek ve karşılık gelen metal bileşiğini oluşturacaktır. Bu bileşiğin kapsadığı hedefin kısmı t ile gösterilir. Şekil 4'de bu durum, At hedef alanının iki parçaya bölünmesiyle gösterilmektedir: metal bileşiğini içeren yüzey kısmı t ve reaksiyona girmemiş metalden oluşan yüzey bölümü (1 - t). • Aynı reaksiyon As biriktirme alanında da gerçekleşir. Bununla birlikte, bu yüzeydeki bileşik malzeme (reaksiyona giren hedef metal) tarafından kaplanan s bölümü, hedef yüzeydeki t bölümünden farklı olabilir. • Vakum odasına sağlanan reaktif gaz, oda içinde eşit olarak dağıtılan kısmi Pr basıncında yükselmeye sebep olur. Bu basınç, reaktif gaz moleküllerinin odadaki tüm yüzeylere r akışına neden olur. Pr ile r arasındaki ilişki aşağıdaki gibidir. Γ𝑟 = (1) denkleminde; m, 𝑃𝑟 √2𝜋𝑚𝑘𝑇 (1) reaktif gaz molekülünün kütlesi, k Boltzmann sabiti ve T mutlak sıcaklıktır. • Yapışma katsayısı, reaktif bir gaz molekülünün bir yüzeye çarptığında yüzeyde kalma olasılığı olarak tanımlanır. Bu olasılık, odanın bileşik kaplı kısımları ve hedef yüzeyleri için sıfır olarak alınmıştır. Yukarıdaki varsayımlara dayanarak, reaktif sıçratma biriktirme sürecini tanımlayan üç temel denge denklemini tanımlamak mümkündür. 1.3.1 At Hedef Alanındaki Şartlar Hedef yüzeyinde bileşik oluşumu yalnızca, reaktif gaz ve reaksiyona girmemiş hedef metali içeren ve (1-t) ile gösterilen hedef kısım arasındaki reaksiyonlar nedeniyle gerçekleşecektir. Hedefte bileşik oluşum hızı (birim zamandaki molekül sayısı) aşağıdaki şekilde yazılabilir: Γ𝑟 𝛼𝑡 (1 − Θ𝑡 )𝐴𝑡 𝑏 1806 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Burada t, reaktif gaz moleküllerinin metal yüzeyine yapışma katsayısıdır ve b, bir adet reaktif gaz molekülünün oluşturduğu bileşik moleküllerin sayısını tanımlayan bir faktördür. Bileşik moleküllerin hedef yüzeyden saçılma hızı şu şekilde yazılabilir: 𝐽 ( ) Θ𝑡 𝐴𝑡 𝛾𝑐 𝑞 Burada J hedef yüzeydeki iyon akım yoğunluğudur (normalde argon iyonları), q temel yüktür, tAt metal bileşik tarafından kaplanan hedef yüzey alanıdır ve c gelen enerjik iyon için bileşiğin saçtırma verimidir ve c iyonun enerjisine bağlıdır. Kararlı durumda bileşik oluşum hızı (metal hedef ile reaktif gaz arasındaki reaksiyonlardan dolayı), bileşik malzemenin hedeften saçtırma erozyon hızıyla aynı olmalıdır. Bu, t 'nin kararlı durum değerine ulaştığı anlamına gelir. Bu bize ilk temel denge denklemini verir: 𝐽 Γ𝑟 𝛼𝑡 (1 − Θ𝑡 )𝐴𝑡 𝑏 = (𝑞) Θ𝑡 𝐴𝑡 𝛾𝑐 (2) Denklemdeki diğer tüm parametreler kullanıcı tarafından tanımlanabildiğinden, (1) ve (2) denklemi yardımıyla herhangi bir Pr değeri için t 'yi hesaplamak mümkündür. Hedeften saçtırma toplam erozyon oranı R şu şekilde ifade edilebilir: 𝐽 𝑅 = (𝑞) [𝛾𝑐 Θ𝑡 + 𝛾𝑚 (1 − Θ𝑡 )]𝐴𝑡 (3) (3) denkleminde m, enerjik iyonlar aracılığı ile saçtırılma nedeniyle metal atomlarının saçtırma verimidir. Buradaki erozyon hızı saniye başına birim parçacık (metal atomları ve bileşik moleküller) cinsinden ifade edilir. 1.3.2 As Biriktirme Alanındaki Şartlar Hedefteki koşullar için olana benzer bir argüman, As biriktirme alanındaki koşulları tanımlamak için kullanılabilir. Kararlı durumda bileşik oluşum hızı, bu yüzeyden 'bileşik eliminasyon' hızıyla aynı olmalıdır. Ancak bu yüzeyde bileşik malzemenin saçtırma erozyonu meydana gelmez. Bunun yerine 'bileşik eliminasyonu', biriktirme yüzeyi As 'nin bileşik biriken kısmı (s) üzerinde toplanan ve hedeften saçtırılan metal atomları tarafından gerçekleştirilir. Bu nedenle, biriktirme yüzeyinin bileşik kaplı kısmının (s) üzerine bir miktar 'reaksiyona girmemiş metal' eklenir ve böylece bu, bir 'metal' yüzeye dönüştürülür. Bu etki, biriktirme yüzeyi kapsama değerinin (s) azalmasına neden olur. s 'deki bu azalmaya ilişkin ifade aşağıdaki şekilde elde edilebilir. 'Taze hedef metal atomlarının' toplam saçtırma erozyon hızı, Rm, şu şekilde yazılabilir: 𝐽 𝑅𝑚 = ( ) 𝛾𝑚 (1 − Θ𝑡 )𝐴𝑡 𝑞 1807 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Bu saçtırmayla aşındırılmış metal, biriktirme yüzeyi üzerinde düzgün bir Rm/As biriktirme oranına yol açar. Biriktirme yüzeyinin s bileşik kaplanmış bölümü üzerinde biriken Rm miktarı Rms dir. Bu terim, reaksiyona girmemiş metal atomlarının birikmesi nedeniyle s 'deki azalma oranını tanımlar. Rm, Rms ve Rm(1-s) terimleri Şekil 4'de oklarla gösterilmiştir. Biriktirme alanının metal kısmına (1-s) biriken saçtırılmış metalin tamamlayıcı kısmı Rm(1s), As biriktirme yüzeyindeki metal kısmını değiştirmeyecektir. Çünkü, metalin metal üzerine biriktirilmesi bu konumdaki bileşimi değiştirmez. Aynı durum, biriktirme yüzeyindeki s kısmı üzerinde saçtırılan bileşik malzemenin biriktirilmesi için de geçerlidir. Benzer bir şekilde, bileşik malzeme üzerine bileşik malzeme biriktirmek, Ass alanının bileşimini değiştirmez. Bileşik malzeme, biriktirme yüzeyinde iki farklı işlemle oluşturulabilir. Birincisi, biriktirme yüzeyinin taze metal kısmı (1-s) reaktif gazla reaksiyona girerek bu yüzey üzerinde bileşik malzeme oluşturabilir. Bu işlem için toplam bileşik oluşumu oranı aşağıdaki gibidir. Γ𝑟 𝛼𝑠 (1 − Θ𝑠 )𝐴𝑠 𝑏 Burada, s, reaktif gazın biriktirme yüzeyindeki metal yüzeye yapışma katsayısıdır ve (1-s)As, biriktirme yüzeyinin metal kısmıdır. Bileşik oluşumuna yol açabilecek ikinci işlem, biriktirme alanının (1-s) metal kısmı üzerinde saçtırılmış bileşik malzemenin birikmesidir. Hedeften bileşik malzemenin toplam saçtırma erozyon oranı Rc aşağıdaki gibi verilmektedir: 𝐽 𝑅𝑐 = ( ) 𝛾𝑐 Θ𝑡 𝐴𝑡 𝑞 Bu saçtırılmış bileşik malzeme, biriktirme alanı As üzerinde eşit olarak dağılmıştır. Biriktirme yüzeyinin (1-s) metal kısmı üzerinde biriken parça şu şekildedir: 𝑅𝑐 (1 − Θ𝑠 ) Bu terim, saçtırılan bileşik malzemenin biriktirme yüzeyinin taze metal kısmı üzerine birikmesi nedeniyle s 'deki artış oranını tanımlar. Şekil 4 'de, Rc, Rcs ve Rc(1-s) terimleri oklarla gösterilmiştir. Kararlı durumda, biriktirme yüzeyindeki bileşik oluşumuna katkıda bulunan iki terim, bu yüzeydeki bileşik eliminasyonunu tanımlayan terimi dengelemelidir. Bu, ikinci temel denge denklemini tanımlar. 𝑅𝑚 Θ𝑠 𝑅𝑐 (1 − Θ𝑠 ) + Γ𝑟 𝛼𝑠 (1 − Θ𝑠 )𝐴𝑠 𝑏 = ( 𝑑 ) (4) Burada d, bir adet bileşik molekülündeki metal atomlarının sayısını tanımlayan bir faktördür. (4) denklemin sağ tarafı, her iki tarafın da aynı birimde, yani zaman birimi başına bileşik 1808 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal molekül olarak ifade edilmesini sağlamak için d'ye bölünmüştür. t (2) denklemi kullanılarak hesaplandığında, (4) denkleminden s 'yi hesaplamak mümkündür. Genelde deney ekipmanları, işlem sırasında reaktif gazın kısmi basıncını izleyecek şekilde donatılmamıştır. Reaktif gaz normalde bir kütle akış kontrolörü aracılığıyla vakum odasına beslenir. Bir reaktif saçtırma işleminden bahsederken, normalde reaktif gaz beslemesinin bir girdi parametresi olarak kullanılmasının nedeni budur. Bu nedenle modelde reaktif gazın beslemesi için bir ifade bulmaya ihtiyaç olur. Yukarıda açıklandığı gibi reaktif gaz, hem hedefte hem de biriktirme yüzeylerinde 'taze metal yüzeyler' ile reaksiyona girecektir. Bu etki nedeniyle reaktif gaz molekülleri bu yüzeylerde giderilecektir (katı bileşik molekülleri oluşturularak gaz fazından çıkacaktır). Reaktif gazın belirli bir kısmi basıncında hedef yüzeydeki giderilme oranı Qt (birim zamandaki molekül sayısı) şu şekilde yazılabilir: 𝑄𝑡 = Γ𝑟 𝛼𝑡 (1 − Θ𝑡 )𝐴𝑡 (5) Biriktirme yüzeyinde karşılık gelen reaktif gaz giderme terimi Qs ise şu şekildedir: 𝑄𝑠 = Γ𝑟 𝛼𝑠 (1 − Θ𝑠 )𝐴𝑠 (6) Deney sisteminin vakum pompası, reaktif gazın Pr kısmi basıncında Qp'yi, yani birim zamandaki molekül sayısını, dışarı pompalayacaktır. 𝑄𝑝 = 𝑘1 𝑃𝑟 𝑆 (7) Burada S, vakum pompasının pompalama hızıdır ve k1, ifadeyi istenen birime dönüştüren bir faktördür. (5)-(7) denklemleri, vakum odasındaki reaktif gazın toplam tüketim oranını (Q) belirler. Kararlı durumda (5)-( 7) denklemlerinden elde edilen katkı, reaktif gazın toplam giriş akışı Q'yu dengelemelidir. Bu üçüncü temel denge denklemini tanımlar. 𝑄 = 𝑄𝑡 + 𝑄𝑠 + 𝑄𝑝 (8) r, t ve s , (1)-(4) denklemlerinden hesaplanabildiğinden, tüm Pr değerleri için, Q 'yu (8) denkleminden hesaplamak da mümkündür. (8) denklemi, reaktif gazın sabit kısmi basıncını korumak için (kararlı durum), (5)-(7) denklemleriyle tanımlanan üç gaz giderme mekanizması nedeniyle bu gazın toplam Q kaybını telafi etmek amacıyla reaktif gaz vakum odasına Q oranında sağlanması gerektiğini ifade etmektedir. 2. Sonuçlar ve Değerlendirme Cam alttaş üzerine reaktif NiO saçtırma işlemini yapabilmek için, yukarıda açıklanan ve (1)(8) denklemleri ile ifade edilen tüm optimizasyona işlemleri yapılarak optimal çalışma şartları elde edilmiştir.Buna göre, reaktif gaz olarak %70 O2 ve %30 Ar gaz karışımı şartları altında, 1809 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal vakum odasının optimal basıncı 25 mTorr olarak bulunmuş ve plazmanın akım sınırı 500 mA 'e ayarlanmıştır. NiO kaplamanın cam alttaş yüzeyi üzerinde eşit bir şekilde biriktirilmesi amacıyla, alttaş 15 rpm hızında döndürülmüştür. Sıcaklık, oda sıcaklığıdır ve bu şartlar altında, (3) denklemi gereğince hedeften saçtırma erozyon oranı ortalama olarak R=0.02 nm/s hızındadır. 25 mTorr olan vakum odası basıncında reaktif gaz O2 'in kısmi akışı 7.2 sccm dir. Elde edilen NiO reaktif saçtırma ince film örneği Şekil 5 'te görülmektedir. Şekil 6 'da Şekil 5 'de görülen örnek için yapılan reflektans ölçümünün grafiği verilmektedir. Şekil 5. 25.476.2 mm boyutlarında cam alttaş üzerine 50 nm kalınlığında reaktif NiO biriktirme. Şekil 6. 190-1100 nm dalgaboyu aralığı için 50 nm kalınlığında reaktif NiO reflektans grafiği. Bu çalışmada, reaktif saçtırma parametreleri optimize edilmiş ve kararlı çalışma koşulları elde edilerek cam alttaş üzerine reaktif saçtırma yöntemiyle NiO başarıyla biriktirilmiştir. 1810 VI.

Email: guneri@yildiz.edu.tr Özet: Sivil havacılık sektörü bir asrı geçen mazisi ve her geçen gün büyüyen ekonomisi ile günümüzün parlayan sektörlerindendir. Bu sektörde yer alan farklı disiplinlerdeki milyonlarca çalışan, sektörü ayakta tutmakta ve her yıl milyarlarca yolcunun emniyetli, güvenli ve zamanında bir yerden bir yere ulaşmasını sağlamak için tüm gayreti ve güler yüzü ile çalışmaktadır. Tüm bu çalışmalar süresince hiç kuşkusuz bir takım İş Sağlığı ve Güvenliği (İSG) riskleri doğmakta ve bu risklerin yönetilmesi gerekmektedir. Gerek yasal mevzuat gereklilikleri gerek ulusal ve uluslararası otoritelerin talimatları gerekse sivil havacılık firmaların inisiyatifleri ile pek çok çalışma yapılmaktadır. Yapılan bu çalışmaların temel odağı çalışma ortamlarının iyileştirilmesi ve geliştirilmesi olduğu için bunu çalışanın görüşünü almadan yapmak çok mümkün değildir. Özellikle yasal mevzuat gereği çalışanın görüşünün İSG bağlamında paylaşımı konusunda çalışan temsilcisi, destek elemanı gibi birtakım tanımlamalar yapılsa da sivil havacılık gibi çok büyük, dağınık ve özel bir sektörde bunlar yeterli olmamaktadır. Bu çalışmanın motivasyonu tespit edilen bu eksikliğin giderilmesi ve çalışan katkısının sağlanması adına ülkemizin bayrak taşıyıcı hava yolu firması olan Türk Hava Yolları Anonim Ortaklığında (THY) İSG Gönüllüsü Uçuş Ekibi (İSGGUE) olarak adlandırılan bir uygulamanın hayata geçirilmesidir. Uçuş ekibinin İSG risklerini, bu risklerin yönetimi ve İSG bağlamındaki tüm süreçlerin içerisinde olmasını, yapılan iyileştirmelerde ve saha uygulamalarında görüşlerini paylaşmasını ve alınacak kararlara bir fiil iştirak etmesini amaçlayan bu çalışma ile alana pozitif katkı sağlamak amaçlanmıştır.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ENGAGING FLIGHT CREW IN OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY RISK MANAGEMENT: AN IMPLEMENTATION OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY VOLUNTEER FLIGHT CREW Abstract The civil aviation sector, with its history spanning over a century and its ever-growing economy, stands as one of the shining industries of our time. The millions of professionals within this sector work tirelessly, with dedication and a smile, to keep the industry thriving and to ensure the safe, secure, and timely transportation of billions of passengers each year. Throughout all these efforts, undoubtedly, Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) risks arise and must be managed. Various efforts are made, driven by legal requirements, national and international regulations, as well as initiatives from civil aviation companies. However, given the fundamental focus of these efforts on improving and enhancing work environments, it is hardly feasible to do so without considering the perspectives of the employees. While designations such as employee representatives or support personnel are defined, especially as per legal requirements, within a vast, scattered, and specialized sector like civil aviation, these may not be sufficient. Motivated by the recognition of this inadequacy and aiming to harness employee contributions, a practice named the Occupational Health and Safety Volunteer Flight Team (OHSTVFT) is proposed to be implemented within our country's flagship carrier, Turkish Airlines Inc. (THY). This initiative seeks to involve the flight team in all aspects of OHS, including the identification and management of OHS risks, sharing their perspectives in improvements and field applications, and actively participating in decision-making processes. Through this initiative, the goal is to make a positive contribution to the field. Keywords: Occupational health, occupational safety, flight crew, risk, volunteer 1814 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal GİRİŞ 15. yy. da uçak kanatları ile ilgili çizimler yapan Leonardo Da Vinci ile ilk temelleri atılan havacılık sektörü, 17. yy. da Lagari Hasan Çelebi ve Hezarfen Ahmed Çelebi, 18. yy. da ise Montgolfier kardeşleri çalışmaları ile biraz daha şekillenmiştir. 20. yy. başlarında ise Henri Giffard’un kontrol edilebilir ilk hava gemisi olan zeplin ve Wright kardeşlerin ilk motorlu uçağı ile modern havacılığın temelleri atılmıştır (1). Günümüzde ise sadece Türkiye’de 2021 yılında +253.000 kişinin çalıştığı havacılık sektörü 2022 yılında yaklaşık 600 uçaklık toplam filo, 12.000 kişilik pilot, +180.000.000 toplam yolcuya hizmet verilen bir sektöre dönüşmüştür (2). ICAO’nun 2019 yılı verilerine göre Dünya’da tarifeli seferlerde taşınan toplam yolcu sayısı yaklaşık 4,5 milyar, sefer sayısı ise 38,3 milyona ulaşmıştır (3). Devasa büyüklüklere ulaşan havacılık sektörünün önemli dişlilerinden bir tanesi hava ulaştırma işletmeleridir. Hava araçlarıyla ticari amaçla, belirli hatlar üzerinde, ücret karşılığında yolcu veya yük veya yolcu ve yük taşıması yapan işletmeler ile ticari hava taşımacılığı kapsamında olmayan yolcu ve yük taşımacılığı ile ücret karşılığı olup olmadığına bakılmaksızın yapılacak hava işi ve eğitim faaliyetlerini yapan işletmeler hava taşıma işletmeleri olarak nitelendirilmektedir (4). Hava ulaştırma işletmelerinin Türkiye’deki en bilindik örnekleri ise Türk Hava Yolları (5), Pegasus (6) gibi şirketlerdir. Bu şirketlerin personel yapısına bakıldığında ise personelin yaklaşık %65’inin genel olarak Uçuş Ekibi olarak adlandırılan Kabin Memuru ve Pilotlardan oluştuğu görülmektedir (7). Yolcu taşımacılığı yapan hava araçlarında gerekli emniyet ve güvenlik önlemlerinin uygulanmasından ve yolcu konforundan sorumlu görevliler “kabin memuru” ya da “kabin görevlisi” olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Uçuşun emniyetli, güvenli ve konforlu bir şekilde gerçekleşmesi için hava aracının kabin bölümünde görev alan Kabin Memurları; Sivil Havacılık Genel Müdürlüğü tarafından yayımlanan ilgili mevzuatlarda belirtilen gereklilikleri sağlayarak eğitimlerini başarı ile tamamlayan ve bunun sonucunda “Kabin Memuru Sertifikası” almaya hak kazanmış kişilerdir (8). Pilot ise; hobi, hususi veya profesyonel olarak bir hava taşıtını kullanan, sevk ve idaresini üstlenen meslek grubunun genel adıdır. Hobi olarak uçmak için sadece bir hususi pilot lisansına sahip olmak yeterliyken meslek olarak pilotluğu seçmek istenmesi halinde hususi pilot lisanslarına yönelik uçuş eğitiminden veya sınavından ayrı olarak ticari seviyede bir lisansa sahip olmak gerekmektedir (9). 20/06/2012 tarihli ve 6331 sayılı İş Sağlığı ve Güvenliği (İSG) Kanununun 9 uncu maddesi uyarınca işyerlerinin iş sağlığı ve güvenliği açısından yer aldığı tehlike sınıfları Ek-1’de yer alan İşyeri Tehlike Sınıfları Listesine göre Tehlikeli Sınıfta almaktadır. Bu bağlamda 6331 sayılı Kanununun ilgili tüm hükümlerine 1815 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal ek olarak tüm uçuş ekipleri için aşağıda belirtilen bazı İSG süreç ve hizmetleri sağlanması gerekmektedir. • Her 500 uçuş ekibi için tam gün çalışacak en az bir iş güvenliği uzmanı ve kalan her bir çalışan için en az 20 dk. ek iş güvenliği uzmanlığı hizmeti verilmelidir. (10) • Her 1.000 uçuş ekibi için tam gün çalışacak en az bir işyeri hekimi ve kalan her bir çalışan için en az 10 dk. ek işyeri hekimliği hizmeti verilmelidir. (11) • Her uçuş personeli işe girişlerinde ve takiben her 3 yılda bir periyodik sağlık muayenesine tabi tutulmak zorundadır (11). • Her uçuş personeli işe girişlerinde ve tekraren her iki yılda bir 12 saatlik İSG Eğitimi almak zorundadır (12). • İSG risk analizleri en geç 4 yılda bir yenilenmelidir (13). • Her 2 ay da bir İSG kurulu toplanmalıdır (14). Uçuş Ekipleri özelinde İSG bağlamında 2016 ve 2023 yılları arasında tam zamanlı olarak iş güvenliği hizmeti verilmiştir. Bu hizmet süresince yapılan saha gözetimleri, risk analizleri, iş kazası araştırmaları gibi saha uygulamaları ile birlikte İSG eğitimleri, etkinlikler ve kurullar gibi platformlarda elde edilen bilgiler ışığında Uçuş Ekipleri ile alakalı en önemli İSG riskleri aşağıdaki gibi belirlenmiştir. • Hat Bazlı Riskler: Uçuş ekibinin gerçekleştirdiği uçuş hattı (rotası) farklılaştıkça riskleri de değişecektir. Yapılan aylık planlamalara göre bir hava yolu firması kaç farklı destinasyona uçuş gerçekleştiriyorsa bir uçuş ekibi de bu uçuşların tamamında görev alabilmektedir. Örneğin ülkemizde Türk Hava Yolları, dünyanın en çok ülkesine uçan havayolu şirketidir (15). Türk Hava Yollarının İstanbul- Ankara seferi ile İstanbul- Rio de Janeiro seferinin süresi, ikram konsepti, ekip sayısı vb. parametreler farklı olduğundan bu hatların İSG riskleri de birbirinden farklıdır. Temel olarak görev uçuş faaliyeti olsa da ilgili parametreler riskleri ve maruziyetleri farklı boyutlara taşıyacaktır. • Uçak Bazlı Riskler: Hava yolu firmalarının ihtiyaçları doğrultusunda farklı marka ve modellerdeki uçaklara sahip olduğu bilinmektedir (16). Her uçağın boyutu, uçak içi ekipmanları, taşıyacağı yolcu sayısı, içinde çalışacak ekip sayısı (17), (18) vb. her uçak tipi bazında farklı olacağı için uçuş ekibinin de maruz kalacağı İSG riskleri farklılaşmaktadır. Örneğin geniş gövde uçaklarda bulunan crew rest alanları dar gövde uçaklarda 1816 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal bulunmamaktadır. Bu alanlar uçuş ekibine oteldeki gibi dinlenme imkânı sağlar (19). Ancak bu alan diğer uçaklarda olmadığı için uçak bazlı İSG risklerini farklılaştırmaktadır. • Ekipman Bazlı Riskler: Uçak içinde uçuş ekiplerinin çeşitli sebeplerle kullandığı trolley (uçakta yiyecek ve içecek servisi için kullanılan tekerlekli araçlar), hot jug (çay ve kahve termosları), drower, (içeceklerin trolleylere yerleştirilmesinde kullanılan çekmeceler), fırın, kahve makinesi, su ısıtıcı, çeşitli tepsi, yemek takımları ve bardaklar gibi çok sayıda ekipman bulunmaktadır. Bu ekipmanların her birinin kendince İSG riskleri bulunmaktadır (20). • Servis Süreçleri Kaynaklı Riskler: Havayolu ikram sektörü, faaliyet alanı itibariyle havacılık ve gıda sektörünün kesiştiği bir noktada konumlanmaktadır. Uçaklarda, uçuş sırasında ikram edilen tüm gıda ürünlerinin belirlenen standartlara uygun olarak hazırlanması ve uçaklara sevk edilmesi en temel faaliyet alanıdır (21). Yapılan servis süreci hava yolu firmalar bağlamında da değişiklik göstermektedir. Bazı hava yolu firmaları low cost olarak daha çok ikramı ücret ile satarken diğer hava yolları ise sınırsız ikram sunmaktadır. Bu bağlamda servis yapan uçuş ekibi servis öncesi, sırası ve sonrasındaki süreçlerde başta yanık ve kesik olmak üzere herhangi bir restoranda çalışan servis elemanı ile hemen hemen aynı İSG risklerine sahiptir. • Uçuş Kaynaklı Riskler: Uçuş operasyonun ve uçak içerisinde çalışmanın İSG bağlamında özel bazı riskleri bulunmaktadır. Bu risklerin başında uçağın sürekli hareket halinde olması gerekmektedir. Özellikle kabin ekibi çalışırken üzerlerinde bulunan zemin sürekli çeşitli yönlere hareket etmektedir. Bu durum, bir nevi standart bir personelin çalıştığı ofisin sürekli küçük çaplı depremlere maruz kalmasına ve personelin bu depremlere rağmen çalışmasına bir şey yokmuş gibi devam etmesine benzetilebilir. Sarsıntıların şiddetlenmesi sonucu daha büyük risklere sebep olacak türbülans riski ile karşılaşılabilir. Uçuş ekibi zaman zaman jet yakıtı gazlarına maruz kalabilir. Bununla birlikte hava alma sistemi nedeniyle kabin havasına tehlikeli maddeler girebilir (22). Ayrıca kabin içerisindeki hava, kabin ekibini enfeksiyon riskine sokacak mikrop ve virüs içerebilir. Parazitlerin yanlışlıkla havayoluna yayılmasını azaltmak için bazı ülkelerin uçak kabinlerinin dezenfekte edilmesi gerekmektedir (23). Uçuş Ekibi çalışma süresi boyunca sürekli ayakta durmakta, malzeme taşımakta, indirip kaldırmakta ve çeşitli alanlara uzanmaktadır. Bu hususlarda yine İSG bağlamında özel riskler doğurmaktadır (24). Uçuş ekibi aynı zamanda hareketli uçaktan kaynaklanan gürültü ve titreşimlere de maruz kalır. Tüm vücut titreşimleri uçuş sırasında, özellikle iniş ve kalkışta veya türbülans sırasında meydana gelir. Uygun olmayan şok emilimi 1817 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal olan zayıf oturma, kas-iskelet sistemi rahatsızlıkları riskini arttırır. Basınçlı bir kabinde uzun saatler çalışmak, uçuş sırasında barotravmaya neden olabilir. Barotravma, en sık orta kulağı etkileyen, havacılıkta iniş ve çıkış sırasındaki basınç değişimleri ile indüklenir. Östaki borusu tıkalı ve bu nedenle orta kulaktaki hava basıncını dış kabin basıncı ile eşitleyemediğinde oluşur. Barotravma acı verebilir, uçuş ekibinin konsantrasyonunu ve çalışma kapasitesini ciddi şekilde etkileyebilir (25). Uçak motorlarından, yardımcı güç birimlerinden, kara taşıtlarından ve rampadaki ekipmandan kaynaklanan gürültü 85 desibeli geçebilir. 8 saat boyunca 85 desibel ve üzeri bir sese maruz kalmak kalıcı işitme hasarlarına sebep olabilmektedir (26). Uçuş ekibi hafta sonları ve resmî tatilleri de içeren, aile sorumluluklarını ve eğlence etkinliklerini olumsuz yönde etkileyen düzensiz çalışma saatlerine sahiptirler. Bu durum strese ve yorgunluğa neden olabilmektedir. Uzun mesafeli uçuşlarda uçan uçuş ekipleri saat değişikliklerine ve ardından sirkadiyen ritimdeki değişikliklere maruz kalır, bu da jet lag olarak bilinen belirtiye yol açar. Bu durum aşırı yorgunluğa ve performans düşüklüğüne sebep olabilir (27). • Yolcu Kaynaklı Riskler: Uçuş ekibi temel olarak yolcuların mutluluğu ve güvenliği için uçakta bulunmaktadır. Bu bağlamda yolcular ile temas halindeyken yolcunun istemeden teması sebebiyle çeşitli İSG riskleri ortaya çıkmakta ve ekip iş kazaları yaşayabilmektedir. İstemsiz temaslara ek olarak sivil havacılık sektöründe uçuş emniyeti ve güvenliğini tehdit eden kural dışı yolcu olayları, son yıllarda giderek artmakta ve sektör açısından birçok olumsuz sonucu beraberinde getirmektedir (28). Ayrıca kabin görevlileri saldırgan ya da sıkıntılı yolcularla da karşı karşıya kalabilmektedir. Bu yolcular emniyet ve güvenlik tehlikesi oluşturabilirler. ICAO’ya kural dışı yolcular kaba veya küfürlü konuşmak, uçuş ekibinin talimatları ve otoritesine karşı gelmek/uymamak, farklı ses tonu ya da yüz ifadeleri gibi nezaketsiz davranışlar yoluyla memnuniyetsizlik belirtmek, bir tartışmayı kışkırtarak sürdürmek, mantıksız taleplerde bulunmak veya reddedilen talebi devam ettirmek, şüpheli davranışlar (uyuşuk, tepkisiz, heyecanlı, mesafeli vb.), herhangi bir emniyet kuralının ihlalinde bulunabilir. Yolcular ayrıca uçuş ekibine açıktan veya saldırgan bir şekilde fiziksel temas veya saldırı, uçuş ekibine karşı müstehcen, cinsel içerikli ve ahlaka aykırı davranmak, uçuş ekibi veya yolcuları fiziksel şiddet uygulamakla tehdit etmek, uçaktaki herhangi bir acil durum ekipmanını kurcalamak ve gereksiz yere oynamak, uçaktaki herhangi bir ekipmana/parçaya ve mala kasıtlı olarak zarar vermek gibi davranışlarda da bulunabilir. Yolcular bu davranışlarını biraz daha arttırarak silah göstererek tehdit etmek veya silah kullanımı, yaralama niyeti ile yapılan fiziksel veya cinsel saldırı gibi ciddi hayati tehlike oluşturan davranışlarda 1818 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal bulunabilirken ayrıca kokpite girmeye teşebbüs etmek gibi çok ciddi sonuçları olan davranışlarda da bulunabilir (29). • Konaklama ve Lokasyon Bazlı Riskler: Uçuş operasyonun bir parçası olan konaklama süreci hava yolu firmalarının işletme ve hizmet tiplerine bağlı olsa da uçuş ekipleri için zaruri bir süreçtir. Uçuş planlamalarına uygun olarak iki uçuş arasında da uzun süreli görevlendirmelerde uçuş ekibi çok fazla otel kullanımı yapmaktadır. Gerek yurt içi gerekse de yurt dışındaki otellerde birçok riskin olduğu bilinmektedir (30). Genel oda içinden, kaygan zeminlere, banyo / wc kullanımından genel otel içi ıslak / kaygan zeminlere, otel restoranından ve otelin bahçe ve çevresine kadar pek çok faktör İSG bağlamında riskler barındırmaktadır. Uçuş ekipleri özellikle yurt dışı konaklamalarında otel risklerine bağlı olarak ilgili ülke, kıta, lokasyon vb. bazlı risklere de maruz kalmaktadır. Örneğin özellikle güney yarım kürede görülen sıtma hastalığı uçuş ekibi için ciddi anlamda İSG riski doğurmaktadır (31). Bunun yanı sıra uçuş ekiplerinin ana vatanı ile konakladıkları ülkelerdeki olası deprem, terör, yangın, sel gibi acil durumlar, meteorolojik, kültürel, siyasi, dini, sosyolojik ve trafiğin ters yönden aklaması bölgeye özgü farklılıklar aynı zamanda çeşitli İSG risklerini beraberinde getirmektedir. • Ulaşım Süreçleri Bazlı Riskler: Uçuş ekibi gerek evlerinden havalimanlarına ulaşmak gerek havalimanı içinde uçağa geçmek gerekse de konaklama yapakları lokasyonlarda havalimanları ile oteller arasında çeşitli araçlar ile ulaşımlarını sağlamaktadır. Bu ulaşımlar için kullanılan kara yolu araçların için pek çok İSG boyutu olduğu bilinmektedir (32). Bu araçlar içinde yaşanabilecek olası trafik kazaları, yol veya şoför kaynaklı sorunlar, ilgili lokasyona özgü trafik sorunları, ulaşım sağlandığı araca ait problemler gibi hususlar ilgili ulaşım sürecinin İSG boyutlarını etkilemektedir. • Havalimanları ve Ekip Odaları Bazlı Riskler: Uçuş ekipleri uçuğa geçmeden önce öncelikle kendilerine özgü ekip binaları /odaları ve havalimanlarını kullanmakta ve öncelikle bu alanları kullanıp bu alanlar üzerinden uçağa geçmeleri gerekmektedir. Bu alanlarda bulunan otopark, yürüme alanları ve kaygan yüzeyler, kullanılan merdiven, asansör, yürüme alanlarının kendilerine özgü İSG riskleri mevcuttur. Özellikle havalimanı kullanımlarındaki yolcu ile temas alanları ve kalabalık ortaklar ek riskler doğurmaktadır. Yine havacılık sektöründeki emniyete verilen önem gereği sürekli kullanılması gereken x-ray cihazları ve güvenlik aramaları da yine İSG bağlamında özel risklere sahiptir. 1819 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal • Kişi Kaynaklı Riskler: İşletmelerde yaşanan iş kazaları incelendiğinde kazalanmaların büyük bir kısmı kişisel hatalar olarak değerlendirilebilir (33). Uçuş ekibinin uymaları gereken kurallara uymamaları, yapmamaları gereken faaliyetleri icra etmeleri, kişisel koruyucu donanımlarını kullanmamaları ve anlık dikkatsizlerden kaynaklı çeşitli iş kazaları yaşayabilmekte ve bu kişisel faktörler gerek kendileri gerek ekip arkadaşları gerekse yolcular için İSG bağlamında çeşitli İSG risklerine sebep olmaktadır. • Zaman Kaynaklı Riskler: Sivil havacılık tamamıyla bir zaman çizelgesine oturtulmuş ve gecikmeye tahammülü olmayan bir sektördür. Uçağın zamanında hazırlanması, kapı kapatması, taxi’ye başlaması, kalkması ve inmesi gibi tüm parametreleri zamanında gerçekleşmesi temek performans göstergeleridir. Bu bağlamda bu operasyonun en büyük paydaşlarından biri olan uçuş ekibi içinde aynı hassasiyet geçerli olup uçuş ekibi kaynaklı herhangi bir gecikme olmamalı, tüm süreçler zamanında eksiksiz tamamlanmalı ve hem yolcu memnuniyeti hem de uçuş güvenliğinden taviz verilmemelidir. Bu bağlamda tüm hususların yerine getirilmesi için uçuş ekipleri büyük bir özveri ile çalışmakta ve ellerinden geldiğince hızlı hareket etmeye çalışmaktadır. Bu bağlamda işlerin hızlı yapılması ve dolayısıyla üzerlerindeki zaman baskısı zaman zaman İSG riski olarak karşımıza çıkabilmektedir. 1. METODOLOJİ 2.1. İSG RİSKLERİNİN YÖNETİMİNDE ÇALIŞANLARIN ROLÜ 6331 Sayılı İş Sağlığı ve Güvenliği Kanunu gereği İşveren, iş sağlığı ve güvenliği yönünden risk değerlendirmesi yapmak veya yaptırmakla yükümlüdür (34). Risk analizi öncesi risk analizi ekibi kurulmalı ve bu ekibin içinde işyeri çalışan temsilcileri ve destek elemanlarının bulunması gerekmektedir. Çalışan temsilcisi ve destek elemanına ek olarak risk değerlendirme işyerindeki bütün birimleri temsil edecek şekilde belirlenen ve işyerinde yürütülen çalışmalar, mevcut veya muhtemel tehlike kaynakları ile riskler konusunda bilgi sahibi çalışanlar da bulunmalıdır. İlgili yasal mevzuatımız gereği çalışan temsilcisi; iş sağlığı ve güvenliği ile ilgili çalışmalara katılma, çalışmaları izleme, tedbir alınmasını isteme, tekliflerde bulunma ve benzeri konularda çalışanları temsil etmeye yetkili çalışan olarak tanımlanırken destek elemanı ise asli görevinin yanında iş sağlığı ve güvenliği ile ilgili önleme, koruma, tahliye, yangınla mücadele, ilk yardım ve benzeri konularda özel olarak görevlendirilmiş uygun donanım ve yeterli eğitime sahip kişi olarak tanımlanmaktadır (34). Yerel mevzuata ek olarak Dünya’daki uygulamalara da bakıldığında çalışan temsilcisi ya da destek elemanı gibi kavramların İSG süreçlerine çok fazla dahil edildiğini görebiliriz. Avrupa Konseyi, Uluslararası Çalışma Örgütü, 1820 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Avrupa Birliği gibi birlikteliklere ek olarak başta Almanya, Fransa, İsveç başta olmak üzere çok sayıda ülkede benzer uygulamaların olduğu görülmektedir (35). 2.2. İSG GÖNÜLLÜSÜ ve ÇALIŞMA PRENSİPLERİ THY, ülkemizin bayrak taşıyıcı firması olarak önümüzdeki 10 yıl boyunca büyük bir atılım planlamaktadır. Bu bağlamda 2023 yılında 85 milyondan fazla taşıyan bayrak taşıyıcı firmamız bu rakamı 171 milyona, 435 olan uçak sayısını 813’e, yaklaşık 82 bin olan grup personel sayısını 150.000’e çıkarmayı planlarken uçuş ekibi sayısını yaklaşık 2,5 kat arttırmayı planlamaktadır (36). Personel sayısı ve operasyonel sayısındaki artışlar İSG süreçlerini de direk etkilemektedir. Bu bağlamda hali hazırda kendi bünyesindeki İş Güvenliği Uzmanları, İşyeri Hekimleri, İşyeri Hemşireleri, Çalışan Temsilcileri, Destek Elemanları bulunan şirket, uçuş ekiplerinin İSG süreçlerinin daha efektif yönetimi için İSG Gönüllüsü Uçuş Ekibi Projesini (İSGGUEP) başlatmıştır. İSGGUEP pilot çalışma olarak 2016 yılında başlatılmıştır. İlgili tarihte yapılacak olan İSG risk analizi çalışması için kurulacak olan İSG Risk Değerlendirme Ekibinde görev almak isteyen uçuş ekipleri için şirket içi bir duyuru yayınlanmış ve aktif C, B veya A sınıfı İSG Uzmanlığı belgesine sahip ya da eğitimini almış olup bu çalışmada gönüllü olarak görev yapmak isteyen uçuş ekibinin gönüllülük usulü ile projeye dahil olabileceği belirtilmiştir. İlgili duyuruya yapılan başvurular arasında beş kişi seçilmiş olup ilgili kişiler öncelikli olarak şirketin İSG Uzmanları tarafından detaylı bir eğitime tabi tutulmuşlardır. İlgili eğitim sonrası ayın yarısında İSG risk değerlendirme ekibi tarafından icra edilen risk analizi çalışmalarına katılmışlardır. İlgili personel, risk değerlendirme çalışmalarına pek çok katkı sağladığı görülmüş olup temelde operasyonel süreçlere çok hâkim olmaları, ilgili süreçlerin İSG bağlamındaki etkilerini çok iyi gözlemleyebilmeleri ve riski yaşıysan kişiler olarak riskin etkisinin azaltılabilmesi adına çok kaliteli ve etkin risk azaltıcı tedbir önerileri sunabilmeleri ile ön plana çıkmıştır. Risk analizi sürecinin bitmesi sonrası bu ekibin sağladığı katma değerin kaybedilmemesi adına süreç İSGGUEP’e evrilmiş ve bu bağlamda öncelikli olarak şirket içi prosedür oluşturulup süreç kayıt altına alınmıştır. İlgili prosedür bağlamında İSGGUE; Tercihen Çalışma ve Sosyal Güvenlik Bakanlığı’ndan onaylı A, B ya da C sınıfı İş Güvenliği Uzmanlığı Sertifikasına sahip ve İSG gönüllüsü olmak isteyen uçuş personeli olarak tanımlanmıştır. Akabinde İSG birimi tarafından şirket içi ilan yayınlanmış ve gönüllü olarak İSG süreçlerine destek vermeye hazır olan uçuş ekibinden bu ilana başvuru yapmaları talep edilmiştir. Başvuru süreci sonrası ilgili başvurular; kişinin CV’si ve geçmiş İSG performansı göz önüne alınarak ön değerlendirmeye tabi tutulmuş olup ön değerlendirmeden başarı ile geçenler ile bire bir mülakat yapılmış ve nihai olarak uygun 1821 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal görülen uçuş ekibi idari olarak da değerlendirildikten sonra İSGGUEP’e dahil edilmektedir. Bu projeye dahil olan İSGGUE, aktif olarak uçuş görevine sıradan bir uçuş ekibi gibi devam ederken aynı zamanda İSG birimi ile koordineli olarak İSG süreçlerine destek sağlamaktadır. İSGGUEP’e dahil olan uçuş ekibi detaylı bir eğitime tabi tutulmakta ve eğitim sürecini başarı ile tamamladıktan sonra aktif olarak göreve başlamaktadır. İlgili görev tamamıyla gönüllülük usulüne bağlı kalarak, şirketin İSG biriminin koordinasyonunda yürütülmektedir. Öncelikle İSGGUE’lere her ilk ayında detaylı bir İSG birimi tarafından İSG brifingi verilip ekibin İSG bağlamındaki eksikleri tamamlanmaktadır. Ayrıca ekibin yıllık ve aylık yapacağı temel faaliyetler yıl başlarında genel olarak ekip ile paylaşılırken yine her ayın başında ise aylık olarak yapılacak çalışmalar paylaşılmaktadır. Her ay sonu yaptığı faaliyetleri bireysel olarak İSG birimine raporlayan İSGGUEP üyelerinin aylık ve yıllık performans karneleri yine İSG birimi tarafından hazırlanmaktadır. İSGGUE, dilediği zaman projeden kendi isteği ile de ayrılıp faaliyetlerini sonlandırabilmektedir. İSGGUE, İSG performansını yüksek tutması gerekmekte olup aksi taktirde projedeki görevine son verilebilir. İSGGUE olarak minimum üç yıl görev almış ve İSG farkındalığı kazandırılmış ekibin yerine yeni İSGGUE kazandırmak üzere ekibin İSG Gönüllülük süreci sonlandırılabilir. Herhangi bir sebeple görev sonlanmaları sebebiyle projede aksaklık olmaması adına en geç iki yılda bir şirket içi İSGDUEP duyurusu güncellenmektedir. Hali hazırda 25 Kabin Ekibi ve 10 Kokpit Personelinin aktif olarak görev aldığı projede personel sayısının %0,2 – 0,5’i arasındaki personelin aktif olarak bulunması adına İSG birimi tarafından süreç takip edilmektedir. 2.3. İSG GÖNÜLLÜSÜ FAALİYETLERİ İSGGUE’nin, göreve başladıktan sonra dört temel sorumluluğu bulunmaktadır. Bunlar temel olarak; • Tespit ettiği tüm ramak kala ve İSG hususlarını İSG birimine raporlamak • Birlikte görev yaptığı uçuş ekibinin İSG farkındalığı ve kültürüne katkı sağlamak • Güncel İSG hususlarının sahada takip edilmesini sağlamak • İSG birimi tarafından yapılan İSG proje ve çalışmalarına iştirak etmek İSGGUE, çok sayıda çalışmaya imza atmıştır. Ekibin yürüttüğü faaliyetler Standart Çalışmalar ve Proje Bazlı Çalışmalar olarak iki başlık altında toplanabilir. 1822 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal 2.3.1. Standart Çalışmalar: Bu çalışmalar tüm İSGGUE tarafından tüm uçuş ve faaliyetlerinde gerçekleştirilmesi gereken çalışmalar olup detayları aşağıdaki gibidir. • Ramak kala Paylaşımları: İSGGUE, evden çıkıp tekrar eve gelene kadarki tüm süreçlerde tespit ettiği tüm ramak kalaları İSG birimi ile paylaşır. THY, Dünyada 274 noktasına uçak bir hava yolu firmasıdır (37). Buda binlerce THY uçuş ekibinin günün herhangi bir anında havada, Dünya’nın herhangi bir havalimanında, ekip araçlarında veya otellerde olduğunu göstermektedir. Özellikle İSG profesyonellerinin bulunmadığı bu alanlardaki İSGGUE’nin paylaşımları şirketin İSG kültürünün gelişmesine çok ciddi katma değer sağlamaktadır. o Ev – Havalimanı arası toplu ulaşım ve ekip araçları / servisler, ulaşım yolları, şoförler vb. o Havalimanları ve çevreleri, o Uçak içi süreçler ve yolcu davranışları, o Otel konaklamaları, otel transfer araçları, genel oda şartları, yemekler vb. Bu şekilde 2023 yılında 1.000’den fazla ramak kala paylaşımı yapılmıştır. • İSG Brifingleri: Uçuş ekibi her uçuş öncesi uçağın Kabin Amiri ve Kaptan Pilotu önderliğinde brifing yapmaktadır. İSG birimi tarafından İSGGUE içinde periyodik olarak İSG bağlamında içerik oluşturulmaktadır. İSGGUE, kendisine İSG birimi tarafından sağlanan bu içeriği ilgili brifinglerde tüm ekibi ile paylaşmakta ve bu paylaşım ekibin İSG farkındalığı ve kültürüne nihai olarak ise şirketin İSG kültürüne pozitif olarak yansımaktadır. Pandemi öncesi 2019 yılında yapılan brifing çalışmaları ile 12.000’den fazla uçuş ekibine ulaşılmıştır. • İSG İyileştirme Takibi: Şirket bünyesinde süreç içerisinde İSG ile alakalı pek çok iyileştirmeler yapılmaktadır. Bu iyileştirmeler periyodik olarak İSG birimi tarafından İSGGUE ile paylaşılmaktadır. Ekibimiz ise saha da ilgili hususları sürekli gözleyerek süreçlerdeki bir hata olup olmadığı, sürecin reel katkısı, sürekliliği ve yeni geliştirme önerileri ile İSG birimine geri dönüş sağlamaktadır. 2.3.2. Proje Bazlı Çalışmalar: Bu çalışmalar rutin çalışma olmayıp İSG ekibi tarafından yapılan proje bazlı çalışmalardır. “Riski en iyi işi yapan bilir” prensibi ile proje bağlamında İSG birimi tarafından İSGGUE’nin tamamı ya da bir kısmı proje ekibine dahil edip İSGGUE’nin ilgili konu ile alakalı görüşleri 1823 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal alınır ve proje bazlı saha uygulamasında desteği istenir. Bu prensip ile yürütülen çalışmaların bazılarının detayları aşağıdaki gibidir. • Risk Analizleri: Gerek İSG yasal mevzuatımız gereği (13) gerekse yaşanan iş kazaları, yeni süreçlerin gelişmesi vb. sebeplerle yapılan risk analizi revizyon süreçlerine destek verilmektedir. • Teknik Bilgi Paylaşımı: Uçuş ekibi işleri itibarı ile çok teknik bir iş icra etmektedirler. Yapılan bu işin teknik boyutunun İSG süreçleri ile eşleştirilmesinde İSGGUE’nin İSG birimine verdiği teknik destek çok ciddi önem arz etmektedir. Bu bağlamda İSG birimi tarafından aylık periyodik toplantılar ve özel çalışmalar icra edilip İSGGUE bu toplantılara davet edilmekte ve ilgili konunun İSG boyutu ile alakalı İSGGUE’nin görüşlerine başvurulmaktadır. • Hatların Analizi: İSG bağlamında riskli görülen hatlar vardır. Ayrıca yeni açılan hatlarında İSG bağlamında risklerinin tespit edilmesi gerekmektedir. Bu hatların değerlendirilmesi adına bir ekip oluşturulur. Ekip; hatta görevli uçuş ekibi (bu ekip tamamıyla İSGGUE üyelerinden seçilir), İSG Profesyoneli (İSG uzmanı ve işyeri hekimi) ve operasyonel birimlerden oluşan bir ekip ile o hatta aktif bir uçuş gerçekleştirilir. Bu uçuş şirket içerisinde İSG Uçuşu olarak adlandırılır ve uçuş sırası ve sonrasında hattın riskli bir hat olmasının sebepleri proje ekibi tarafından tespit edilmeye çalışılır. Bu aşamada o hatta sürekli uçuş gerçekleştiren çalışanlar olarak İSGGUE, proje ekibine geri dönüş ve teknik destek sağlayarak ilgili risklerin tespiti hususunda katma değer sağlamaktadır. • Uçakların Analizi: Uçaklar, uçuş ekiplerinin işyeri olup bu alanlarda çok fazla zaman geçirmektedirler. Bu bağlamda gerek mevcut gerekse de filoya yeni katılan uçakların İSG risk ve tehlikelerini uçuş ekibinden daha iyi kimse bilememekte ve yorumlayamamaktadır. İSG Uçuşlarında olduğu gibi uçakların İSG değerlendirme süreçlerinde de İSGGUE’nin destek, teknik bilgi ve yönlendirmelerine başvurulmaktadır. • Konaklama ve Otel İSG Çalışmaları: Dünya’nın en çok noktasına uçak hava yolu şirketlerinden biri olan THY’nin uçuş ekipleri yıllık milyon geceleri bulan konaklamalar yapmaktadır. Bu bağlamda Dünya’nın dört bir tarafında olan oteller ve otel – havalimanı arası transfer süreçleri de İSG bağlamında çok ciddi riskler içermektedir. Bu risklerin yönetimi konusunda İSGGUE çok ciddi rol almaktadır. 1824 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal Kendilerine İSG birimi tarafından sağlanan form ve yardımcı ekipmanlar ile otel ve ulaşım süreçlerinin İSG boyutunu adeta bir İSG profesyoneli gibi analiz eden İSGGUE konaklama sonrası İSG ekibine raporlama yaparak otelin İSG boyutunda İSG birimini ve şirketini haberdar etmektedir. • Farkındalık Çalışmaları: Uçuş ekiplerinin İSG farkındalığını arttırmak üzere THY bünyesinde çok çalışmalar icra edilmektedir. Bu çalışmalardan bazıları da İSG etkinlikleridir. İSG Etkinliklerinde İSGGUE’ne bu etkinliklerde rol verilmekte olup uçuş ekibinin İSG farkındalığının arttırılmasında kendilerinin de desteği alınmaktadır. SONUÇ İSG çalışmalarında çalışan desteği olmazsa olmazdır. Sivil havacılık sektörü ise endüstrileşmeye / makineleşmeye çok müsait olmayan, çok fazla regülasyon ve gerekliliği olan, emniyet – güvenlik ve yolcu memnuniyeti saç ayağı üzerine kurulu, hataya toleransı olmayan ve zaman temelli bir sektördür. Dolayısıyla çalışana diğer sektörlerden daha fazla yük binmekte ve çalışandan daha fazla beklenti söz konusu olmaktadır. Bu bağlamda mevcut İSG riskleri artmakta olup bu risklerin yönetiminde hali hazırdaki İSG profesyonellerinin tek başlarına çalışmasının yeterli olmadığı görülmüştür. Bu sebeple çalışanları İSG süreçlerinin içine çekebilmek adına İSGGUEP devreye alınmıştır. Bu proje ile THY uçuş ekibi İSG faaliyetlerinin içerisinde yer alarak İSG süreçlerinde söz sahibi olmuş ve sistematik bir şekilde görüşlerini paylaşmaya başlamıştır. Bu proje bağlamında İSGGUE, aşağıdaki beş başlık altında raporlanan hususlarda İSG birimine destek olmaktadır. • Öncelikli olarak risk analizi çalışmalarına dahil olup risklerin belirlenmesinde etkin rol oynayıp risklerin etkilerinin azaltılması ya da yok edilebilmesi için fikirlerini paylaşmıştır. • Herhangi bir zaman diliminde İSG profesyonellerinin orada bulunamayacağı Dünya’nın herhangi bir alanında uçak içi, otel, ekip araçları gibi alanlardaki tüm risk, tehlike ve ramak kalaları başta THY İSG birimi olmak üzere ilgililer ile paylaşıp sürecin çözümünde önemli rol oynamaktadır. • İSG birimi ile birlikte uçuş ekibinin İSG farkındalığının arttırılmasında adına ekibine yaptığı bilgilendirmeler ile ekibin İSG farkındalık ve kültürünün gelişmesinde destek sağlamaktadır. 1825 VI. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON GLOBAL PRACTICE OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES April 09-16, 2024 / Lisbon, Portugal • Havacılık sektörü gibi kompleks, büyük ve detayların yoğun olduğu bir sektörde İSG biriminin ihtiyaç duyduğu tüm teknik desteği sağlamaktadır. • İSG birimi tarafından yapılan büyük çaplı proje ve çalışmalarda İSG birimi ile birlikte çalışarak aynı zamanda çalışmanın kalite ve büyüklüğüne etki etmektedir. THY bünyesinde tamamıyla gönüllülük esasına dayanan bu proje ekibi, İSG birimi tarafından periyodik olarak yenilenmekte ve bilgi anlamında sürekli güncellenmektedir. Sürekli geliştirilen proje katılımcılarının sayıları personel sayısının %0,5’ini geçmeyecek şekilde sistematik olarak arttırılmaya çalışılmakla birlikte ekibin sürekli zinde tutulması sağlanmaktadır. Farklı sektör ve çalışma gruplarında için yine farklı formatlarla geliştirilebilecek olan bu projenin çalışanların İSG süreçlerine dahil edilebilmesi adına önemli bir proje olduğu gerek Sivil Havacılık Sektörüne gerekse THY bünyesinde İSG bağlamında çok önemli katma değerler sağladığı görülmektedir. 1826 VI.
