    Subjective norms and behavioural intention of E-banking adoption: Mediating role of perceived usefulness

    Jermsittiparsert, Kittisak; Wongsuwan, Navaporn; Akkaya, Bülent

    The study was planned to examine the impact of subjective norms on the behavioural intentions of Thai e-banking users. Additionally, the study has also examined the mediating role of perceived usefulness of e-banking in the relationship between the subjective norms and e-banking adoption. The subjective norms construct in this study was decomposed into societal descriptive and injunctive norms, and personal descriptive and injunctive norms. It is clear from the literature review that highly inconsistent findings were reported between perceived usefulness and subjective norms because of the contradiction in the findings obtained by the researchers. This occurred may be because trivial attention was given to the relationship between subjective norm and perceived usefulness. In current research, it is argued that there are many advantages of e-banking adoption which includes mobility, convenience and 24-hour accessibility anywhere anytime with no physical limitation of location as required in old-styled e-commerce. For that reason, it is hypothesized that people who believe that these advantages would result in the improvement in their performance are expected to create a positive environment for technology adoption. In the latest quantitative research development, the partial least squares (PLS) path modelling is considered to be unsuitable in determining the validity of the model. For this purpose, a two-step process is implemented in current research. The results of the present study, argued that e-banking is adopted voluntarily and the existence of high social norms in collectivist culture greatly influences the potential adopters' attitude and behaviour by the opinions of their significant others particularly in Thai context.

    Kermeoğlu, Fatma; Sayıner, Serkan; Şehirli, Ahmet Özer; Savtekin, Gökçe; Aksoy, Umut

    The purpose of the study was to investigate the therapeutic effects of α-lipoic acid (ALA) on an induced-acute pulpitis model in rats. Twenty-four Wistar albino rats were randomly divided into three groups: control, induced-acute pulpitis (PULP) and PULP + ALA groups. In the PULP and PULP + ALA groups, the crowns of the maxillary left incisors were removed horizontally. All exposed pulp tissues were treated with 5 µL LPS solution. In the PULP + ALA group, the rats were treated intraperitoneally with a single dose of ALA (100 mg/kg). The rats were sacrificed 24 h after pulp injury, and the trunk blood and pulp samples were collected and then determined using ELISA assay kits. TNF-α, IL-1β, MMP-1 and MMP-2 levels in the serum and pulp tissues were considerably higher in the PULP group than the control group (p < 0.01–0.001). In the PULP + ALA group, TNF-α, IL-1β, MMP-1 and MMP-2 levels in the serum and pulp tissues decreased significantly compared to the PULP group (p < 0.05–0.001). ALA decreases pro-inflammatory mediators and proteolytic enzymes, which might relieve acute inflammation.

    HMK Madde 152 Kapsamında Soruların Belirlenmesi Bağlamında ABD Hukuku Soru Tarzına Genel Bir Bakış

    Sarısözen, Murat Serhat

    Hukuk Muhakemeleri Kanunumuza m.152 ile “(Doğrudan) Soru Yöneltme”nin girmesiyle birlikte artık taraf vekilleri tanıkları, bilirkişileri ve duruşmaya katılan diğer kişileri sorgulayabilecektir. Etkin bir sorgu sistemi, tarafların, ka- nunlarla güvence altına alınan ispat hakkının da tam olarak gerçekleşmesini sağlayacaktır. Doğrudan soru yöneltme imkanına sahip olan avukat, bunu ne şekilde kullanacağına yine kendisi karar verir. Bu sebeple HMK’daki doğrudan soru yöneltme düzenlemesinin, Anglo Amerikan Hukukundaki çapraz sorgu sistemine benzeyip benzemediği bu çalış- mada irdelenecektir. Aynı zamanda uzun bir mahkeme tecrübesiyle gelişen ve hukuk kurallarına da yansıyan ABD tarzı soru sorma pratiğinden, Türk Hukukunda faydalanıp faydalanılamayacağı da bu çalışmanın konusunu oluşturacaktır. Bu kapsamda doğrudan sorgu ve çapraz sorgunun nasıl yapıldığı; her iki sorguda da dikkat edilmesi gereken yönler ana hatlarıyla incelenecektir.

    The performance of the organizations needs to be measured. This study aimed to determine the relationship between openness, trust, leadership, team cohesion, and organizational performance. This study was cross-sectional, and survey questionnaires were used to collect data from participants. The questionnaire was distributed to employees of Thai organizations that manufacture sports goods. For this purpose, convenience sampling was used, and 75.78 percent of the responses were usable. For data analysis, PLS 3.3.2 was utilized. According to the study's findings, trust does not affect team cohesion. Additionally, team cohesion does not mediate between confidence and performance. However, the remaining relationships were deemed significant. The study's findings are beneficial for policymakers and academics.

    Moderating Effect of Ethical Climate between the Relationship of Coach Ethical Leadership and Affective Commitment: An Evidence from Thailand Nonprofessional Soccer Player

    Fahlevi, Mochammad; Jermsittiparsert, Kittisak; Wongsuwan, Navaporn; Aljuaid, Mohammed; Chankoson, Thitinan

    A multitude of ethical dilemmas perpetually besets non-professional soccer. It is believed that coaches can be beneficial in preventing unethical behavior. Therefore, this study examines the moderating effect of perceived ethical climate on the relationship between coach ethical leadership and the affective commitment of non-professional soccer players. A convenient sampling technique was utilized to collect data from 300 amateur Thai soccer players for this purpose. The Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) demonstrated that the direct effect of player-perceived coach ethical leadership and player-perceived ethical climate has a significant and positive relationship with affective commitment. The indirect impact of the critical findings indicates that players' perceptions of the ethical environment moderate the relationship between their perceptions of the ethical leadership of their coaches and their affective commitment. These findings suggest that ethical climate is integral because it significantly mediates exogenous and endogenous variables. Therefore, this moderating effect relationship is a significant contribution to the study. This study could assist athletes and clubs in understanding the significance of coaching ethical leadership and ethical climate in enhancing the affective commitment of non-professional athletes.

    Effects of Bioresonance Application in Mice with Depressive-Like Behavior

    Cabıoğlu, M.T.; Aslan, E.L.; Karabey, S.Z.; Derdinne, G.G.; Akyüz, Ö.

    We studied the effects of bioresonance application on mice with depressive-like behavior induced by stress. A chronic mild stress model was developed in mice to monitor the effects of bioresonance application. After that, behavioral tests were performed. In the forced swimming test, the animals of the long bioresonance therapy demonstrated shorter group immobility time in comparison with mice of the stress group and stress group without therapy (animals of this group were sacrificed at the same time point as therapy groups in order to reveal a possibility of spontaneously recover in animals after stress without therapy). In the tail suspension test, a decrease in immobility time was observed in the long bioresonance therapy group, stress group, and stress without therapy group. These changes in behavioral test results can indicate that the application of bioresonance in mice can be an effective method of treating depressive-like behavior, but these conclusions should be supported by additional experimental studies and the use of different frequencies.

    Yatırımcı-devlet tahkiminde devletlerin karşı davaları üzerinde saluka’nın etkisi

    İlhan, Hüseyin Afşın

    Devletlerin yabancı yatırım çekmek amacı ile yabancı yatırımcılara bazı teşvikler sunmaları gayet yaygındır. Bu teşviklerin bir parçası \rolarak genellikle devletler, yatırımcı ile aralarında doğabilecek uyuşmazlıkların uluslararası tahkimde görülmesine rıza göstermektedirler. \rEğer bu rıza, sadece yatırımcıya tahkime başvurmak hakkı verir şekilde \rdar kaleme alınmış bir tahkim şartında formüle edilmiş ise, devletlerin \ryatırımcı aleyhine tahkime başvurmaları ya da onlar tarafında açılmış \rdavalarda karşı dava açabilmeleri tehlikeye girmektedir. Diğer tarafından, bazı yazarlar devletlerin maruz kaldıkları bu durumu adaletsizlik \ryaratabileceği nedeni ile eleştirmektedir.
