PurposeOne of the most important factors affecting individuals’ financial well-being is the financial behaviors of individuals as mentioned in the related studies. The risk propensity is defined as the risk taking tendencies of indivudials in the literature. In the studies conducted, it is seen that as individuals prefer risky investment instruments, risk propensity increase; financialbehaviors affect financial well-being level, while rational financial behaviors increase ones level of financial well-being whereas mismanaged financial processes leave someone with short and long term problems. This study aims to determine the impact of risk propensity on financial well-being. MethodologyA face-to-face survey was conducted with the employees of the banks located in the Gulf region of Balıkesir Province during the implementation phase of the workshop. The risk propensity scale from the study of Hunjra and Qureshi (2017) and the financial well-being scale developed by Norvilitis, Szablicki and Wilson (2003) used in this study. The data obtained from the questionnaire were subjected to statistical analysis and the results were interpreted. FindingsA negative relationship between the risk propensity and the future financial situation expectation which is one of the sub-dimension of financial wellbeing, was determined in the study. A positive relationship between the present financial situation and the future financial situation expectation which are the sub-dimensions of financial well-being, was also detected. It has been determined that the risk propensity is negatively and low-level influencing the future financial condition expectation which is the sub-dimension of financial well-being. ConclusionAs a result of the study, it was determined that the risk propensity has a negative and low-level effect on the future financial situation expectation dimension of financial well-being. This situation can be explained that the higher risk propensity increases financial expectations and in terms of future financial situation the individuals see inadequate themselves compared to the higher expectations formed, conversely with lower risk propensity individuals see adequate themselves in terms of future financial situation because of not the higher financial expectation.

Total 315 teacher candidates studying at first, second, third and fourth grade at the Department of Science Education have participated in the research. An awareness test that comprises of 5 open-ended questions has been implemented to the teacher candidates. It has been determined that the teacher candidates heard about the concept of recycling mostly through school, media and their families. It has also been determined that the teacher candidates are evaluating the recyclable material within the scope of packaging wastes. It has also been determined that despite almost all teacher candidates have the sufficient awareness concerning the meaning, necessity, purpose of recycling, they do not have the sufficient awareness about the recyclable materials. However, it is striking that the teacher candidates have not mentioned metal and composite packaging wastes. Yet, a few teacher candidate is aware of the meanings of the signs besides recycling and recovery signs that are on the packages. It is believed that the reasons behind the limited recycling awareness are lack of knowledge and interest and lack of importance about recycling on media and in education theoretically and practically.Ahmet Hamdi Tanpinar is a writer attached also to Impressionism one of the image stream as to Symbolism.

The struggle that seen as a societal collision based on religious difference has solemn economic and regional causes. CAR holds rich diamond, gold, uranium and petroleum reserves. The contention for procuring these reserves between the Western actors (France in particular) and the global/regional actors like China and South Africa should be seen as the most significant determinant that affects the political functioning and the ongoing societal collision. It’s possible to catch the reflections of this struggle behind the ongoing civil war. On top of that, the bloody civil war that continues in CAR most likely will affect the neighboring countries which are politically inconsistent.Inovasyonun odak noktasi ekonomik refah yaratmaktir.

By taken into account of the revealed period, starting from relationship between sira and revelation, context of the related verse has been tried to be determined. Therefore, the historical backround has been briefly explained in the proportion of the relationship to the verse. In order to demonstrate of the importance of the prohibition time in terms of the Quran, it has been overly focused on Battle of Hunayn and Tabuk. The context of Mascid-i Haram and Mushrik has been stated through the classical books in the field. Considering of the discussions raised in the framework of the starting time of the prohibition, context of the verse has been tried to be introduced. In our work, it has been understood that making expansion upon scope of the prohibited area does not match for meaning in accordance with the verse and spirit of the Quran. In addition, it has been concluded that if the related verse is interpreted apart from the context, then it is able to cause the radical consequences, create problems at inter-communal relations and prepare a criticism ground for people having malicious approach against the Quran.Bu arastirmanin amaci, performans uygulamalarinin temelini olusturan ek odemelerin, calisan memnuniyetine etkilerini arastirmak ve bu cercevede; calisanlarin memnuniyetlerini etkileyen faktorlerin neler oldugunu tespit etmektir.

Gobeklitepe (Şanliurfa), Catalhoyuk (Konya), Ivriz (Konya), ve Alacahoyuk (Corum)’deki kazilarda bulunan bugday daneleri bu tarihi gorusleri desteklemistir. On birinci yuzyilda Anadolu’ya varan Turkler, Orta Asya’daki hasat tecrubelerini de beraberlerinde getirdiler. Turkcedeki diyalektler bugday kulturunden fazlaca etkilenmis olmak ve Derleme Sozlugunde yer almis olmakla beraber bu konu yeterince incelenmemistir. Dahasi, degisik diyalekteler icinde yer alan sozlu formlar ve kulturel iliskili sozcukler tam olarak derlenmemistir. Bu nedenle; anilan bu konularin coklu disiplinler tarafindan detayli bir sekilde calisilmasi gerekmektedir. Burada; tarihsel yapisi icerisinde bugday tarimi, bugday hasadi ve bugday kulturu diyalektler ve iliskili sozcuk gruplari bakimindan incelenecektir.The aim of this study is to examine the effect of family medicine system on the quality of health services provided by doctors.

Hence their tendency toward familism or individualism is one of the major indicators of such a dual transition. The aim of this study is to find an answer to the question whether Turkish university students (n=165) display any tendency toward familism or individualism, or they reconcile both as a strategy to emancipate from the enmeshment of family. The findings revealed that there is a coexistence of familistic and individualistic tendencies in terms of intrafamilial relationships. The findings also evidently show that students who are female, relatively younger, from rural origins and children of parents with lower educational level are more subjected to familistic values. Keywords: Familism, Individualism, Social Change, Turkish University Students.
