The objective of this study was to identify the determinants of personal norm and to measure the effect of personal norm on green purchasing behavior as well as a possible mediating role of consumer LOHAS orientation in the effect of personal norm on green purchasing behavior in the hospitality context. A field study was designed to measure the hypothesized effects, and 418 consumers who regularly purchase summer holidays in hotels were included in the survey. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was employed in order to test the proposed hypotheses. The results confirm that social norm, the ascription of responsibility, and the attitude towards green purchasing behavior are the determinants of personal norm. Personal norm is found to affect both the green purchasing behavior and the LOHAS orientation of consumers. The results of the study also confirmed that LOHAS orientation does not mediate the effect of personal norm on green purchasing behavior due to the dominance of personal norm’s effect on LOHAS orientation. Academic as well as managerial implications are provided in the Discussion. The Conclusion provides the most important academic and practical contributions of the study, limitations related to the generalizability of the findings, and recommendations for future studies.

In this study the relationship between job satisfaction and organizational commitment in female employees has been examined. The structural equation modelling technique was used to analyze complex models with both direct and indirect relationships. Quantitative data was gathered by utilizing questionnaires. To demonstrate convergence validity, confirmatory factor analysis was used. Composite reliability and AVE scores were calculated to assess the scales' reliability and discriminant validity. The AMOS statistical program's structural equation model method was used to test the hypotheses. Out of six hypotheses, two of them were supported. It has been empirically proven that Internal Job Satisfaction has a direct effect on Affective Commitment and Normative Commitment, where External Job Satisfaction does not have a direct effect on any sub-dimensions of organizational commitment. Although job satisfaction and organizational commitment have been examined individually in many studies, this research focused on female employees working in the service sector while evaluating the relationship between the two concepts in the light of current data.

This research aims to comprehend the the mediating roles of perceived organizational support and work engagement in the effect of leader-member exchange on employees’ job satisfaction. Namely, the main purpose is to contribute to this gap in the current knowledge. Structural equation modelling method (SEM) method has been used to analyse multiple variable complex models including direct and indirect relationships. Five-point Likert scale quantitative data was collected. Confirmatory factor analyses have been conducted to verify the convergent validity. Composite reliability has been used to testify reliability and AVE values indicated discriminant validity of the scales. The hypotheses have been tested by means of SEM. Consequently, it has been empirically proven that leader-member exchange has a positive impact on job satisfaction. Furthermore, both perceived organizational support and work engagement play mediating role in the relationship between leader-member exchange and job satisfaction. These findings are in accordance with the extant literature. This study attempts clarify the mechanism behind the relationship between leader-member exchange and job satisfaction by examining the role of perceived organizational support and work engagement concurrently.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of organisational cynicism on job satisfaction among retail sales employees. Organisational cynicism is related to an employee's negative attitude towards the organisation. Due to its potential detrimental impact on individuals, it is presumed that organisational cynicism might affect job satisfaction. Questionnaires gather research data. The validity of the scales is ensured using principal component analysis. To assess reliability, Cronbach's alpha values are calculated. Multiple regression analysis is executed to test the hypotheses. Research findings demonstrate that the affective and cognitive dimensions of organisational cynicism affect job satisfaction, whereas the behavioural dimension does not exert any significant effect. This research extends the existing literature by analysing the potential impact of organisational cynicism on job satisfaction within the retail sales workforce. The results of the study emphasise the importance of additional management efforts to reduce the formation of employee cynicism and to increase job satisfaction within organisations.

İktisat, diğer sosyal bilimlerle yakından ilişkilidir. Ekonomi genellikle insan davranış kalıplarından etkilenmektedir. Ekonomik düşüncenin geçmişi ekonomik modeller bazında Antik Yunan’a kadar uzanmaktadır. İnsanın sosyal davranışını inceleyen sosyoloji, ekonominin uygulanması üzerinde birçok yönden ölçülebilir etkiye sahiptir. Örneğin borsa fiyatları, gerçek somut verilerden ziyade yatırımcıların ve hissedarların algılarından çok daha fazla etkilenir. İnsan davranışını neyin yönlendirdiğini anlamak, daha iyi hazırlanmış bir ekonomik modele yol açabilir ve ayrıca pazarların belirli davranış kalıplarına göre şekillendirilebileceği anlamına gelebilir. Politika ile ekonomi görünür bir şekilde birbirine bağlıdır. İlginç bir şekilde, ekonomik modelleri etkilemek ve değiştirmek için genellikle uzun zaman ölçekleri gerektiğinden, ekonomistlerin politik ekonomik kararlarla uzlaşma düzeyi hakkında çok fazla tartışma vardır.
