    Ucan, Izzet; Ozan, Murat

    The aim of this study is to determine the speech anxiety levels of physical education and sports department students and to examine them in terms of different variables. The research was carried out with 202 students (66 female and 136 male) studying in different departments of Erzurum Ataturk University Faculty of Sports Sciences in 2108/2019 academic year. The data related to the study were collected by Speech Anxiety Scale developed by Yaman and Sofu (2013) and the Demographic Information Form determined by the researchers. Frequency distribution was used to determine the students' demographic characteristics, Independent Samples T-test was used to examine the differentiation between two independent variables and speech anxiety and One-Way ANOVA analysis was used to examine the differentiation between more than two variables and speech anxiety. All these tests were analyzed in SPSS 21 package program and the significance level was accepted as p <0.05. As a result of the research, it was determined that there was no significant difference between the students' demographic characteristics, sporting activities and speech anxiety levels. Although there was no significant difference, it was also observed that the male students' total score of speech anxiety was lower than that of female students numerically. It was observed that, regarding the students' family structure variable, those who had a fragmented family, who had a monthly personal income level of over 1501 TL, who studied in the department of management, did sports activities and performed both sports as regards their sports activity type, had numerically a low level of speaking anxiety when compared to other variable groups. In the light of these results, it is suggested that students should be encouraged to participate in sports activities and to engage in different social activities in order to reduce their speech anxiety levels. Apart from this study, it is recommended to investigate using different variables and to determine the variables that may have a positive or negative effect on speech anxiety.

    Self-Representation of the Romany Ethnicity in Social Media and Socio-Digital Compensation of the Otherness

    Güzel Korver, Semra; Keskin, Savas

    This study consists of a cultural analysis of social media usage as a platform for self-representation and socio-digital compensation of Roman users who are exposed to problems in terms of representation and recognition due to their position as a minority group in Turkey. The aim of the study, which examines the identity building of a group of Romany users organized on Facebook under the name of Romany Research Center, is to determine the functions, maneuvers and cultural aspects of the self-representation practices of the Romany ethnic identity under socio-digital conditions and to understand the ways in which digital building actions transform the relationship between identity and otherness in the context of Romany users. In the study, which focuses on representation of ethnicity and cultural identity, the netnography method, defined as social network ethnography, was used to analyze the cultural interfaces and shares on the page. Within the framework of the method, the shares on the community page were coded as cultural layers and identity generators, and a wide-ranging observation and document review process was undertaken. The cultural codes interpreted from a descriptive perspective show that the members who share the Romany identity think about the perception of being `We' together with the Turkish national identity and construct another identity known as Gaco (Non-Romany). The findings of the study reveal that the organization/composition of proving laundering and innocence is dominant instead of autonomous and positive constructs in the socio-digital construction process of the Romany ethnic identity. In this case, it may be argued that the community members continue to create an awareness of their problems by closing the information gap in a sense by freely displaying their positive identities that the media ignores.

    The Bolsheviks Attempt to Overthrow the Provisional Government: July Uprising 1917

    Sadigov, Ramin

    1917 was a turbulent year for Russia. Successive events in the country led to the collapse of the tsarist regime. The administration was taken over by a provisional government, but its actions did not satisfy the revolutionary organizations. Especially, the Bolshevik Party did not compromise with the government and acted against it. Moreover, accusing other parties on cooperating with the government they attempted riot in July, but failed. It is generally focused on October Revolution in studies about the activities of the Bolsheviks in Turkey. This is because they succeeded in the October revolution. But they are known to have attempted riot and wanted to overthrow the government even before October. However, it was identified that this issue did not take part in the studies. Therefore, in this study Bolsheviks' riot attempt in July was examined and focused on how they were prepared and how they organized their supporters. During the study, the role of the Bolsheviks in the riot was scrutinized in the light of the official and unofficial press of the period, the first period of Soviet resources and the recent researches.

    SARIKAMISH OPERATION ACCORDING TO RUSSIAN SOURCES

    Sadigov, Ramin

    On October 29, 1914, after the bombing of the Black Sea coast of Odessa, Sevastopol, Feodosia and Novorossiysk by two Ottoman naval vessels, the Russian government porclaimed that diplomatic relations with the Ottoman state had been cut off and immediately called the Russian embassy delegation in Istanbul back to the country. On November 2, Tsar Nikola issued a manifesto and declared war against the Ottoman Empire and ordered the Caucasus army to attack the Turkish army by crossing the border. Thus, the Ottoman Empire actually entered the First World War. After Russia declared war against Ottoman Empire , clashes between the two sides began in the Eastern Anatolia region. The main aim of Russia was the Capture of Erzurum which was also the base of the III. Corps of the Ottoman Empire . The Ottoman Empire, aware of this situation, prepared a plan. According to this plan, Russia will be firstly removed from the region and so Kars and Ardahan will be rescued. Later on, Baku will be recovered by moving to the South Caucasus and all Turkish-Islamic peoples living under Russian domination will be encouraged to rebel against Tsarism. In order to implement this plan, the Ottoman Empire decided to carry out a risky operation in December 1914. This operation, known in history as Sarikamis Operation, lasted for about 15 days and ended with great defeat for the Ottoman Empire. The information given by the Russian sources on the Sarikamis Operation, which still has great debate on today, is undoubtedly very important. In this study, wiew and aspects of Russian press and literature beyond archive sources towards Sarikamish Operation was examined.

    Do We Know Organic Food Consumers? The Personal and Social Determinants of Organic Food Consumption

    Ünal, Sevtap; Deveci, F. Gorgun; Yildiz, Tugba

    The main aim of this study is determining which consumption motives and personal and social factors affect organic food buying decisions. Ajzen's Planned Behavior Theory (TPB) is used to explain consumers' organic food selection behaviors. In addition, the moderating role of uncertainty about organic foods and the mediating role of the price of organic foods were tested. Data were gathered via a survey of consumers of organic foods in Turkey. The research model was tested by Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) via Smart PLS3. The findings showed that consumptions motives of healthiness, easiness, mood, and convenience-price of organic foods motivate consumers to buy organic foods. In addition, environmental concern and negative emotions influence on attitudes towards organic foods and purchase intentions. On the other hand, subjective norms and self-monitoring do not influence attitudes towards organic foods and subsequent purchase intentions. Uncertainty has a moderating effect on the relationship between attitudes and purchase intentions whereas price has no mediating effect on the relationship between attitudes and purchase intentions.

    Experimental and Theoretical Investigation of Short- and Long-Heel Cases of Cantilever Retaining Walls in Active State

    Kamiloglu, Hakan Alper; Sadoglu, Erol

    Failure surfaces are very effective in active lateral earth thrusts acting on cantilever retaining walls. The intersection of failure surface and cantilever retaining wall should be taken into account for determination of active earth thrust. Calculations of lateral earth thrusts vary for two different cases, short heel or long heel, based on the intersection of cantilever wall and failure surface. However, the common methods are devoted to a particular case (long heel or short heel). This study intended to suggest a new lateral earth thrust method that is applicable to cantilever walls with a short heel or long heel using the limit-equilibrium approach. For this purpose, an earth thrust-maximization algorithm was prepared and coded by using Matlab Environment to determine active earth thrust coefficients and failure surface inclination angles occurring behind a cantilever wall in an active case. Also, the failure surfaces occurring behind model cantilever walls and the failure cases were examined experimentally by using particle image velocimetry (PIV) analysis. Consequently, long-heel and short-heel cases and the effective parameters on the cases were investigated analytically and experimentally. (C) 2019 American Society of Civil Engineers.

    Effects of Some Stabilizers on the Textural Properties of Set-Type Yogurt

    Macit, Emine; Karaoglu, M. Murat; Bakirci, Ihsan

    This study was conducted to investigate the effect of various stabilizers on textural properties of set yogurt. Yogurt samples were prepared by using seven various stabilizers such as sodium caseinate, gelatin, carrageenan, xanthan gum, guar gum, locust bean gum and native corn starch. Control group samples were produced without using stabilizer. Textural analyzes were made with a TA-XT2i texture analyzer. As a result of the statistical analysis, it was determined that stabilizer and storage time had a significant effect (p<0.01) on all texture parameters of yogurt samples, the relaxation force values were not affected by only storage period (p>0.05). In conclusion, Nacaseinate was the most suitable stabilizer for yogurt texture compared to all stabilizers. These findings may contribute to the selection of stabilizer material or preparation of stabilizer mixtures that can be used in the production of set type yogurt for developing different textural parameters.

    Assessment of Alternative Segregation Test Methods for Self-Consolidating Heavyweight Concrete

    Gökçe, H. Suleyman; Aksan, Umut; Andiç-Çakir, Ozge

    This investigation is focused on the use of alternative segregation test methods on high-performance self-consolidating heavyweight concrete. Many segregation test methods have been developed by researchers up to now; however, the disadvantages of these methods, such as being time-consuming, the requirement of excessive labor, and the lack of precision, cannot ensure their worldwide prevalence. In the study, the segregation limitations stated in various test methods, that is, the column test, density variation method, and 3-compartment sieve test, were evaluated on self-consolidating heavyweight concrete produced with barite aggregate. For this purpose, in total, eight self-consolidating heavyweight concrete mixtures designed in two water/binder ratios were prepared by replacing viscosity modifier, silica fume, and fly ash with ordinary Portland cement in different amounts. The mixtures were constituted in satisfactory segregation grades, allowing researchers to evaluate the relationship between those methods. The segregation coefficient limits of the column test, density variation method, and 3-compartment sieve test are recommended as 7%, 1%, and 6.3% for the self-consolidating heavyweight concrete mixtures tested in the study.

    Heat transfer enhancement in cylindrical fins through longitudinal parabolic perforations

    Cuce, Erdem; Oztekin, Erman Kadir; Cuce, Pinar Mert

    In our previous works, it is clearly addressed that optimisation of fin profile is of vital importance in terms of the rate of heat transfer from a hot surface, and the optimisation procedure depends on several factors. Within the scope of this research, a longitudinal cylindrical fin profile is under interest for the optimisation research. The purpose is to investigate the effects of longitudinal parabolic perforations on the fin parameters such as temperature distribution, effectiveness and efficiency, in which the fin surface is cooled by natural convection and radiation. Different concavity levels are considered to form parabolic perforations. The rate of heat transfer from fin surface is numerically correlated with the fin mass with respect to different concavity levels. According to results, heat transfer from unit fin mass is enhanced with the new designs. The outcome of the study can be used to optimise the needs for particular applications by making a decision between heat loss and weight options. That is, the increase in the concavity level of the perforation results in a lighter and cheaper design, but yielding a lower heat loss. However, heat transfer from unit mass is still enhanced.
