The Analysis of The Relationship Between The Cultural Intelligence and The Feeling of Compassion in The Health Staff
(Yuzuncu Yil Universitesi Tip Fakultesi, 2022) Güner, Ş.I.; Karaaslan, S.; Güner, S.; Orhun, R.; Ulay, G.
In this study, we aim to analyze the relationship between the cultural intelligence and the feeling of compassion in the health staff. The universe of the research is composed of the health staff who service in a university hospital (n=925). The data of the research was collected with “Personal Information Form”, “The Cultural Intelligence Scale” and “The Compassion Scale”. Mann-Whitney U Test, Kruskal-Wallis Test and Spearman Correlation Analysis were used for the statistical analysis. The Cronbach’s alpha internal consistency coefficient was found to be 0.895 for the cultural intelligence scale and to be 0.876 for the compassion scale, respectively. Based on the study, it was determined that the age average of the health staff was 31.15±6.99 and the average service period was 7.83±6.06. It was found that among the health staff 83% performed their job with enjoyed, 65.4% considered their performance effective and 93.4% perceived themselves compassionate. 80.2% of the health staff believes that they had cultural intelligence. According to the cultural intelligence scale, the average score of the health staff was calculated to be 96.54±18.43. This number was found to be 88.61±14.96 in the compassion scale. It was determined that there was a strong positive relationship (r=0.74) between the cultural intelligence and the feeling of compassion in the health staff. We believe that the health staff that has a cultural intelligence would evaluate the patients considering cultural para meters and thus be less judgmental and show more compassion. © 2022, Yuzuncu Yil Universitesi Tip Fakultesi.

The Effects of Artificial Weathering on the Pendulum Hardness of Chestnut Wood Applied With Polyurethane Varnish After Heat Treatment
(DergiPark, 2023) Ulay, G.; Ayata, Ü.
The effects of artificial weathering (576 h) on the pendulum hardness values of Anatolian chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.) wood applied with polyurethane varnish (PU) after heat treatment at 190°C for 1.5 h and at 212°C for 2 h were investigated. The results revealed that heat treatment, weathering period, and interaction were significant. The hardness values of the heat-treated materials were higher than those of the non-heat-treated test samples. The highest hardness value was determined in the un-weathered group of the test samples that were heat-treated at 190°C for 1.5 h while the lowest value was determined in the group that was heat-treated at 190°C for 1.5 h and weathered for 432 h. The highest reduction rates after weathering were obtained on samples that were heat-treated at 190°C for 1.5 h, followed by heat-treated at 212°C for 2 h and non-heat-treated. It was observed that the heat treatment application caused different pendulum hardness values in chestnut wood samples covered with polyurethane varnish. © 2023, DergiPark. All rights reserved.
