(Sage Publications inc, 2024) Ergun, Duygu; Takan, Savas; Katipoglu, Gokmen; 01. Atılım University
Emotions play an important role in the process of media messages transforming the audience. In our study, starting from the question of what might be the dominant emotions in old age-themed cinema texts, it is aimed to obtain clues about how old age is constructed in cinema through these emotions and what kind of emotional structure about old age is imposed on the audience. In this direction, emotion analysis was applied to the dialogues of 379 old age-themed films shot in a period of 100 years to determine what kind of emotional structure is constructed in all old age-themed cinema texts. As a result, it was found that the most dominant emotion was anger and disgust. The findings were categorized according to three different periods (1920-1969, 1970-1999, 2000-2020) and interpreted in a descriptive approach in a historical perspective and within the framework of the cinemas of the in addition to the EU, Germany, France, the UK, and Japan, Turkish cinema to make a comparison, where the most old age films were made. It is expected that our study will set an example for text mining research in cinema and offer an alternative perspective to the discussions on the phenomenon of aging in cinema.

Fair-News: Digital Journalism Model To Prevent Information Pollution and Manipulation
(Tech Science Press, 2023) Takan, Savas; Ergun, Duygu; Katipoglu, Gokmen; 01. Atılım University
As digital data circulation increases, information pollution and manipulation in journalism have become more prevalent. In this study, a new digital journalism model is designed to contribute to the solution of the main current problems, such as information pollution, manipulation, and account-ability in digital journalism. The model uses blockchain technology due to its transparency, immutability, and traceability. However, it is tough to provide the mechanisms necessary for journalism, such as updating one piece of information, instantly updating all other information affected by the updated information, establishing logical relationships between news, making quick comparisons, sorting and indexing news, and keeping the changing informa-tion about the news in the system, with the blockchain data structure. For this reason, in our study, we have developed a new data structure that provides both the immutability, transparency and traceability properties of the blockchain and can support the communication mechanisms necessary for journalism. The functionality of our proposed data structure is demonstrated in terms of communication mechanisms such as mutability, context, consistency, and reliability through example scenarios. Additionally, our data structure is compared with the data structure of blockchain technology in terms of time, space, and maintenance costs. Accordingly, while the model size increases linearly in blockchain, the model's size remains approximately constant since the structure we developed is data-independent. In this way, maintenance costs are reduced. Since our model also has an indexing mechanism, it reduces the linear time search complexity to logarithmic time. As a result, the data structure we developed is found to have higher performance than blockchain in the journalism concept. In future studies, it is planned to test all aspects of the model with a pilot application, eliminate its shortcomings, and develop a holistic approach to the root causes of the problems in the journalism focus.
