Knowledge, attitude, and practice towards COVID-19: Research to develop a measuring instrument
(Ediciones Doyma S A, 2022-06-28) Göktaş, Olgun; Ersoy, Canan; Göktaş, Olgun; ERSOY, CANAN; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/İç Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Aile Sağlığı Merkezi; AAH-8861-2021; JHW-6055-2023
Objective: To evaluate the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of individuals about COVID-19 and to develop a valid and reliable scale that can measure these items about COVID-19 and other similar pandemic processes. Design: Methodological scale study with a quantitative approach. Participants: 415 individuals in the first phase and 367 in the retest phase. Interventions: Carried out between March 1, 2021, and April 30, 2021. Main measurements: Reliability and factor analyses were performed and validity was evaluated. In factor analysis, a scale with 4 factors and 30 questions was obtained. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was applied to the factor scores of the scale. Factors were named AGeneral Culture, B-Mask, Distance and Cleanliness, C-Mental Status, and D-Way of Information. A 3-point Likert-type scoring system was created for the responses. Results: Cronbach???s alpha value was 0.894. In factor modeling, 3 of the confirmatory factor analysis fit indices were good and 4 of them were acceptable, so our model was found to be appropriate. The scale was highly reliable, according to internal and external consistency coefficients. The scale was named the Turkey COVID-19 Attitude Scale. p values < 0.05 were considered statistically significant. Conclusions: The valid and reliable Turkey COVID-19 Attitude Scale, which we developed to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of individuals about COVID-19, can be used to guide research during COVID-19 and future pandemics. ?? 2022 The Author(s).

Enhanced source memory for cheaters with higher resemblance to own-culture typical faces
(Springer, 2022-09-20) Burhan, Pınar; Alıcı, Tevfik; ALICI, TEVFİK; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Psikoloji Bölümü; GSJ-7626-2022
Recent evidence suggests that culture-specific face typicality has an impact on making trait judgments. Additionally, facial resemblance to one's culture-typical faces causes them to be perceived as reliable, less dangerous, and more accurately recognized. When judging persons from other cultural origins, one's own culture's face standards might shape inferences, behavior, and memory. In this study, the partners' facial resemblance to participants' culturally typical faces was manipulated using target faces, considered to be higher or lower, similar to people living in the participants' hometown. Participants were asked to invest in a company together with partners who have a higher and lower resemblance to their own-culture typical faces in a cooperation game. The results showed that facial resemblance to own-culture typical faces affected investment preferences. Partners with a higher resemblance to own-culture typical faces were more correctly distinguished in the old-new recognition memory task. The study found that partners with a higher resemblance to own-culture typical faces had a source memory advantage for cheating behaviors. These results confirmed that a higher resemblance to own-culture typical faces provide an advantage in cross-cultural interactions, allowing them to become better recognized. Additionally, enhanced source memory for cheaters with higher resemblance to own-culture typical faces may indicate a flexible cognitive system that is sensitive to information that violates social expectations.
Performance analysis of cross-layer design for internet of underwater things
(IEEE, 2022-08-01) Cicioğlu, Murtaza; Calhan, Ali; CİCİOĞLU, MURTAZA; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Bilgisayar Mühendisliği Bölümü; 0000-0002-5657-7402; AAL-5004-2020
Underwater communication is a diverse and complex environment and has many problems. There are many problems in modeling and operating underwater networks. Physical and data link layer specifications for underwater networking should be taken into account in terms of quality of service metrics. In this study, we construct an underwater simulation environment as a cross-layer design consisting of physical and data link layers for the Internet of Underwater Things (IoUT) Network. The IoUT network has sensors with various priorities, a central node as a hub and a gateway as a buoy. The underwater sensors communicate with CSMA/ CA-based IEEE 802.15.6 protocol on low frequencies. For a more realistic communication channel, all the features of the acoustic channel are designed and performance analyzes are discussed. In addition, the proposed IoUT is compared with terrestrial network results in terms of bit error rate, signal-to-noise ratio, packet loss ratio, end-to-end delay, radio receiver utilization, and throughput. We claim that we have made a realistic IoUT network, especially for divers, autonomous underwater vehicles with specific sensors, or for similar purposes.
Buckling analysis of perforated nano/microbeams with deformable boundary conditions via nonlocal strain gradient elasticity
(Techno-Press, 2023-10-01) Kafkas, Uğur; Ünal, Yunus; Yayli, M. Özgür; Uzun, Büşra; Ünal, Yunus; YAYLI, MUSTAFA ÖZGÜR; UZUN, BÜŞRA; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Mühendislik Fakültesi/İnşaat Mühendisliği Bölümü.; 0000-0002-7636-7170; ABE-6914-2020; JTF-6675-2023; JTS-2032-2023
This work aims to present a solution for the buckling behavior of perforated nano/microbeams with deformable boundary conditions using nonlocal strain gradient theory (NLSGT). For the first time, a solution that can provide buckling loads based on the non-local and strain gradient effects of perforated nanostructures on an elastic foundation, while taking into account both deformable and rigid boundary conditions. Stokes' transformation and Fourier series are used to realize this aim and determine the buckling loads under various boundary conditions. We employ the NLSGT to account for size-dependent effects and utilize the Winkler model to formulate the elastic foundation. The buckling behavior of the perforated nano/microbeams restrained with lateral springs at both ends is studied for various parameters such as the number of holes, the length and filling ratio of the perforated beam, the internal length, the nonlocal parameter and the dimensionless foundation parameter. Our results indicate that the number of holes and filling ratio significantly affect the buckling response of perforated nano/microbeams. Increasing the filling ratio increases buckling loads, while increasing the number of holes decreases buckling loads. The effects of the non-local and internal length parameters on the buckling behavior of the perforated nano/microbeams are also discussed. These material length parameters have opposite effects on the variation of buckling loads. This study presents an effective eigenvalue solution based on Stokes' transformation and Fourier series of the restrained nano/microbeams under the effects of elastic medium, perforation parameters, deformable boundaries and nonlocal strain gradient elasticity for the first time.
Towards an understanding of resource room teaching practices: A case study of a middle school in Turkey
(Routledge Journals, 2023-06-09) Yazcayır, Gülcihan; Gürgür, Hasan; YAZÇAYIR, GÜLCİHAN; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Eğitim Fakültesi/Özel Eğitim Bölümü.; 0000-0001-5094-1237; IUZ-1737-2023
This research aims to examine how Resource Room practice is utilised for students with special education needs (SEN) at a general education middle school where inclusive education is implemented. Accordingly, an embedded single case has been opted for the research design. The research participants include two students with SEN, five teachers, one school counsellor, and one school administrator. Data triangulation has been established through using interviews, observations, video recordings, student documents, and the researcher's diary. All the collected research data has been analysed via an inductive approach, revealing two challenges: the development of Individual Education Programs and time management in the resource room courses. Furthermore, the results have also revealed that the resource room practice lacks assessment procedures, instructional methods, and materials tailored to the needs of students with SEN. Additionally, the levels of teamwork and cooperation have been identified to be less than needed.
