Item The effects of job satisfaction and meaning of work on employee creativity: An investigation of EXPO 2016 exhibition employees(INST TOURISM, 2018) Akgündüz, Yılmaz; Kızılcalıoğlu, Gaye; Şanlı, Sabahat CeylinEnsuring customer satisfaction is essential for success in the service sector. To satisfy customers, employees should respond rapidly to their demands and display creative behaviours. This empirical study investigates the effect of job satisfaction and meaning of work on employee creativity for employees working at EXPO 2016 in Antalya, Turkey, through a questionnaire survey. The 266 completed questionnaires were analysed by hierarchical regression. It was found that both intrinsic job satisfaction (skill and opportunity) and meaning of work effect employee creativity directly. Recommendations are made to organization managers to benefit from employee creativity, particularly those working in facilities with an intense customer-employee relationship.Item Aestheticizing the downfall of industrial capitalism: Jim Jarmusch's tale of intellectual vampires in zombies' world(UNIV PITTSBURGH, UNIV LIBRARY SYSTEM, 2017) Pehlivan, Bahar Muratoğlu; Atalay, Gül EsraThis study aims to read Jim Jarmusch's movie Only Lovers Left Alive from the perspective of downfall of industrial capitalism and ecosocialist approach. The movie mainly takes place in Detroit Michigan, which is a symbol of the collapse of Fordism and industrialization. Ecosocialist critique of industrial capitalism has common notions with Jarmusch's tale. Thus, theoretical framework of this study has been established on ecosocialist paradigm. In the movie, Jarmusch represents vampires as intellectuals with a wide accumulation of culture and knowledge and places his critique of industrialization from their point of view. Multimodal Discourse Analysis was applied to the movie to find out how the movie did use visual and literal signifiers to establish its narrative.Item Happiness, job stress, job dedication and perceived organizational support: a mediating model(EMERALD GROUP PUBLISHING LTD, 2023) Akgündüz, Yılmaz; Bardakoğlu, Övünç; Kızılcalıoğlu, GayePurpose - Based on The Conservation of Resources Theory (COR), Spillover Theory and Social Exchange Theory (SET), this study investigates the mediating role of job dedication in the relationships between job stress, happiness and perceived organizational support (POS). Design/methodology/approach - Data were collected from 5-star resort hotel employees in Turkey. 362 valid questionnaires were collected. The research hypotheses were tested using Covariance-Based Structural Equation Modeling (CB-SEM). Findings - The analysis results show that POS is positively related to employee happiness and job dedication. Job stress is negatively related to employee happiness but positively related to job dedication. Job dedication partially mediates the relationships between job stress and happiness, and POS and happiness. Research limitations/implications - The study's findings could be used by hotel managers to improve employees' job dedication, which will lead to increased employee happiness. Together with qualitative and quantitative research methods, future research could be conducted on the predecessors of job dedication and comparatively on employee happiness for different country samples. Practical implications - In order to increase employee happiness, Turkish hotel managers may want to increase POS and decrease perceived job stress of their employees. Although it was found out in this study that job stress increases job dedication, it is also accepted that this unexpected situation arises due to special conditions. Therefore, by reducing job stress, hotel managers may prefer to increase the job dedication of their employees and their happiness indirectly. Originality/value - The current study contributes to the hospitality management literature by investigating the organizational factors behind employee happiness. In addition, it also explored in depth the mediating effect of job dedication on the relationships between POS, job stress and happiness.Item Incendies in the context of cinematic dialectics and hybrid narrative(ANKARA UNIV, FAC COMMUNICATION, 2022) Topçu, ÇiçekThis study offers a multilevel reading of Denis Villeneuve's film Incendies (2010) through the lens of its filmic framework and a deconstruction and reassembling of the film itself. It begins by using the film to provide a dia-lectical explanation of the main lines and intellectual features of the First, Second, and Third Cinema movements, which succeeded one another but are essentially mutually exclusive. It then connects the features of the film with the narrative features of each of these movements to arrive at a holistic and multi-perspective account of the film. Through a qualitative assessment of which of the film's features are associated with each of these differ-ent movements, the study concludes that the film Incendies has a hybrid structure that erodes the boundaries between different conventions. While underlining the conservatism of the narrative patterns of these three mutu-ally independent cinematic movements, Incendies nevertheless brings them together in way that highlights their dialectic harmony.Item Joining analysis of polypropylene parts in rotary friction welding process and developing of joints profile(GAZI UNIV, 2021) Maden, Hakan; Çetinkaya, KerimAim Development of the weld nozzle profile that will contain the semi-melt agglomeration that will occur in the interior after rotary friction welding of plastic parts. Design & Methodology Welding nozzle design is made in modules in ABAQUS program. The design was developed by the parameters entered and the interpretation of the analysis results made in the ABAQUS program. Originality The source mouth obtained as a result of the ABAQUS program reveals the originality of this study. In addition, with the rotary friction welding simulation, graphs such as temperature, stress and displacement occurred during welding were created. Findings With this study, a structure that will contain the semi-melt agglomeration has been obtained as a result of rotary friction welding. During welding, for a piece max. 166,2 degrees C, 1,9 mm displacement and max. the stress was found to be 4,9253MPa. Conclusion As a result of 3 different welding nozzle designs and analysis made to include semi-melt agglomeration, it was observed that the design number 3 imprisoned the melt agglomeration.Item Production of a design developed for the assembly filter parts, optimization of welding and field test(ASSOC MECHANICAL ENGINEERS TECHNICIANS SLOVENIA, 2022) Maden, Hakan; Çetinkaya, KerimFor the joining of non-removable plastic parts, methods such as friction welding, friction-stir welding, ultra-sonic welding, chemical joining, and hot-plate welding are used. Rotary friction welding is generally used for joining the filter parts of water treatment devices. After the rotating friction welding of the filter parts, semi-melted agglomerations are formed in the inner parts. To prevent semi-melted accumulation, a weld joint profile design was developed in the ABAQUS software in a previous study. In this study, injection moulds had been produced according to weld joint profile design. The taken plastic presses were welded with the friction welding machine and the joint was controlled and compared. It is seen that the semi-melted agglomeration was successfully confined. By performing Taguchi experimental method and ANOVA analysis on friction welding machine parameters, the optimum pressure conditions were determined in order to carry out static and dynamic tests according to NSF standards and field tests by producing 1500 pilot products, and it has been put into use. The lifetime of the developed filter depends on the material which was used in the manufacture. The next study is aimed to improve the lifetime of the developed filters.
