    The association of employees' perception of the manager's ambiguous behaviors with likelihood of conflict occurrence: A Cross-Cultural study
    (Negotiation and Conflict Management Research, 2024) Konuk, Hızır; Aydın Küçük, Burcu; Tınaztepe Çağlar, Cihan
    The research aims to provide evidence to explain the contradictive findings in the literature on the organizational conflict phenomenon and the relationship between conflict and culture, by focusing on the relationship between ambiguous behaviors and conflict. To achieve this goal, in the context of low-status compensation theory, the relationship between incivility, humor as ambiguous behaviors, and the likelihood of manager-subordinate conflict occurrence was investigated. To test the culture’s effect on this relationship, survey data were collected from 478 white-collar subordinates working in SMEs in Turkey and the UK. According to the results, the subordinate’s perception of the manager’s ambiguous behaviors affects the likelihood of relationship conflict and task conflict occurrence. In addition, the study reveals that culture is associated with the likelihood of relationship conflict occurrence but not task conflict. The study contributes to the literature by providing evidence for the relationship between humor, incivility, conflict, and culture.

    Strategic Financial Management for Small and Medium Sized Companies
    (Emerald Group Publishing Ltd., 2015) Karadağ, Hande
    Research shows the majority of small businesses fail in their early years due to poor financial management, turning the dreams of many business owners and novice entrepreneurs into nightmares. This book serves as a guide to prevent these financial disasters. In an applicable fashion, Karadag explains how financial management in an enterprise can be conducted strategically to attain significant improvement in business performance. Karadag takes the basic strategic management model of environmental scanning-planning-implementing-feedback as a framework, and approaches the core financial practices and instruments as elements of strategic financial management, which any small or medium sized enterprise can use as tools for sustainable organizational performance and growth. With its unique strategic outlook, this text is a vital reference for nonfinancier small or medium sized enterprise owners and individuals who aim to successfully establish and run their own businesses. © 2015 Emerald Group Publishing Limited.

    Consumer Responses Toward Smart Technology: a Systematic Review, Synthesis, and Future Research Agenda
    (Wiley, 2024-04-25) Köse, Şirin Gizem; Özer Çizer, Ece; Sağkaya Güngör, Ayşegül; Ozansoy Çadırcı, Tugce; Cadirci, Tugce Ozansoy; Gungor, Aysegul Sagkaya
    This article is a comprehensive review of the literature on smart technology in consumer studies from 1996 to 2023. While the paper provides information about the development of the field by identifying important publications and authors, it employs topic modeling to pinpoint key topics in papers published in marketing and business journals. These topics are then grouped into three research streams and evaluated concerning theoretical, contextual, and methodological perspectives. While doing so, specific gaps were identified. By revealing gaps in the literature, the study suggests promising avenues for further research. Finally, this article advances our comprehension of the smart technology literature in marketing and business journals and informs future inquiry in this rapidly evolving domain.

    The Timing Database: an Open-Access, Live Repository for Interval Timing Studies
    (Springer, 2023-01-03) Brochard, Renaud; Karşılar, Hakan; Akdoğan, Başak; De Corte, Benjamin; Aydoğan, Turaç; Baccarani, Alessia; Duyan, Yalçın Akın; Balci, Fuat
    Interval timing refers to the ability to perceive and remember intervals in the seconds to minutes range. Our contemporary understanding of interval timing is derived from relatively small-scale, isolated studies that investigate a limited range of intervals with a small sample size, usually based on a single task. Consequently, the conclusions drawn from individual studies are not readily generalizable to other tasks, conditions, and task parameters. The current paper presents a live database that presents raw data from interval timing studies (currently composed of 68 datasets from eight different tasks incorporating various interval and temporal order judgments) with an online graphical user interface to easily select, compile, and download the data organized in a standard format. The Timing Database aims to promote and cultivate key and novel analyses of our timing ability by making published and future datasets accessible as open-source resources for the entire research community. In the current paper, we showcase the use of the database by testing various core ideas based on data compiled across studies (i.e., temporal accuracy, scalar property, location of the point of subjective equality, malleability of timing precision). The Timing Database will serve as the repository for interval timing studies through the submission of new datasets.

    Prediction of Loan Decisions With Optical Neuroimaging (fnirs) and Machine Learning
    (IEEE, 2023-07-05) Girişken, Yener; Son Turan, Semen; Çakar, Tuna; Ertuğrul, Seyit; Sayar, Alperen; Son, Semen; Giriken, Yener
    The successful applications of neuroscientific methods and artificial learning approaches have increased in applied fields such as economics, marketing, and finance in the last decade. In this study, a prediction model was developed using the output of optical neuroimaging (fNIRS) measurements from the prefrontal brain regions while 40 participants made decisions for 35 credit offers. The aim was to predict participants' responses to credit offers using artificial learning methods based on four metrics obtained over time from the optical neuroimaging system. The findings of the study indicate that the first 6 seconds (prior to the response entry) are particularly critical. While the performance rate in the developed prediction models is found to be higher, especially in tree-based algorithms, this paper includes a performance comparison of 5 models specifically.

    The Antecedents of Career Change Intention in Middle-Level Managers: the Role of Job and Career Satisfaction
    (Personnel Review, 2022-10-21) Şahin, Faruk; Karadağ, Hande
    Purpose – This investigates the interrelationships between job and career satisfaction and career changeintention through the extension of the theory of planned behavior (TPB).Design/methodology/approach – The data for the study is collected from 219 top and middle-levelmanagers and analyzed through partial least squares path structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM).Findings – Findings indicate that job and career satisfaction have a significant and negative impact onpersonal attitude toward career change and subjective norms, whereas all three constructs of the TPB influence the intention to change career. In addition, the mediation of personal attitude and subjective norm pathways were found to be significant for both job and career satisfaction and career change intention relationships, while no mediation effect was identified for the perceived behavior control construct of the TPB.Research limitations/implications – The results suggest important theoretical and practical implications.First, a novel model of mediation between job and career satisfaction and the intention to turn away from an existing career is introduced between job and career satisfaction and career change intention associations for testing the full TPB framework.Practical implications – The findings imply that the impact of cognitive factors, including having a positiveopinion about the potential outcomes of switching to a new career, the level of pressure exerted by significant third parties about making a career change, and the self-belief about making this change happen should be closely investigated when examining the determinants of career change intention.Originality/value – To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first empirical research study that teststhe impact of the determinants of TPB on career change intention within a sample of professional managers from an emerging economy context.

    Minimum Cost Delivery of Multi-Item Orders in E-Commerce Logistics
    (Elsevier, 2022-02-01) Muter, İbrahim; Laportece, GilberT; Akyüz, M. Hakan; Erdoğan, Güneş; Laporte, Gilbert
    We solve a delivery problem arising in e-commerce logistics. We consider a retailer with an online store and a network of stores operating in an omni-channel strategy. The fulfillment decision for an online order, which contains a number of items, involves the allocation of these items to the stores where they are available and the selection of one store for consolidation of the items into the final package to be dispatched to the customer. The transportation between the stores and the customer is handled by a third-party logistic provider which uses a concave pricing policy based on the distance between the origin and the destination, as well as on the weight of the items. We present an online problem which is defined for a set of orders placed over time, and a mixed integer programming formulation defined for each order. The main characteristics of this problem are that the solution of the formulation for each order impacts those of the subsequent orders, and the problem must be solved in real time. For the solution of the formulation, we propose an iterative matheuristic based on the solution of the set covering model and local search. Computational results on randomly generated instances are provided, which demonstrate that our algorithm is capable of producing high-quality results.

    Social Media Marketing of Brands in the Covid-19 Pandemic: Exploring the Crisis-Related Content
    (IGI Global, 2022) Tosun, Petek
    This chapter explores the social media marketing communication of brands in the first days of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak within the theoretical framework provided by signaling theory. The social media content of six Turkish brands was examined by content analysis. The findings have shown that brands shared posts in four themes: brand promotion, brand's COVID-19 messages, product promotion, and special day posts. Brands integrated the COVID-19 agenda in their social media communication in two ways. First, they designed and shared posts that focused solely on the pandemic. These COVID-19-related posts constituted a separate category that did not include any direct relevance to the brands' promotion activities. Second, they added COVID-19-related points in their social media posts. This study provides valuable findings for marketing practitioners and academicians regarding social media communication in a global health crisis.

    Locus of Control, Need for Achievement, and Entrepreneurial Intention: a Moderated Mediation Model
    (Elsevier, 2022-07-01) Tuncer, Büşra; Uysal, Şenay Karakuş; Şahin, Faruk; Karadağ, Hande; Uysala, Senay Karakus
    Applying social cognitive career theory (Lent, Brown, & Hackett, 2002) to entrepreneurship, this paper addresses the effects of locus of control and need for achievement on entrepreneurial intentions, and whether the effects are mediated by entrepreneurial self-efficacy and vary according to sex. The participants were 111 students enrolled in the business administration program in Turkey. Using longitudinal survey data, the research model was tested with the moderated mediation procedure suggested by Hayes (2013). The findings showed that entrepreneurial self-efficacy mediated the relationship between locus of control and entrepreneurial intention, as well as the relationship between need for achievement and entrepreneurial intention. Moreover, the conditional indirect analysis showed that the effect of locus of control on entrepreneurial intention depended on sex, with the effect of locus of control being greater for men. By showing empirical evidence for the usefulness of social cognitive career theory to entrepreneurship, our research adds to current literature. Implications for practice and recommendations for future research are discussed.
