Article Citation - Scopus: 4Attitude of Mobile Telecommunication Subscribers Towards Sim Card Registration in Lagos State, Southwestern Nigeria(Springer india, 2019) Oyediran, O.; Omoshule, A.; Misra, Sanjay; Maskeliunas, Rytis; Damasevicius, RobertasDespite the concerted effort of the Nigeria Communication Commission (NCC) to ensure that Nigeria mobile phone subscribers register their SIM cards, there has been some level of apathy on the part of the mobile phone subscribers. This study investigated the attitude of mobile telecommunication subscribers towards SIM card registration in Lagos Metropolis, Nigeria. The theories of planned behaviour and reasoned action were adapted for the study because they provide the necessary constructs that help to investigate the attitudes of telecommunication subscribers. The purposive sampling technique was adopted in selecting five local government areas within Lagos. Random sampling method was used to select 300 mobile phone subscribers. In total, 290 responses were collected and were found usable. Data analysis was performed using statistical methods, and Spearman's correlation analysis was used to test relationship between the variables of interest. The results of the study revealed that SIM card users have positive attitude towards SIM card registration. Perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use significantly influenced subscribers attitude towards SIM card registration with both of them having negative significant relationship with attitude towards registration (r = -.116, r = -.132, p < 0.05) respectively.Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 10The Effect of Knowledge Levels of Intensive Care Nurses About Pressure Injuries on Their Attitude Toward Preventing Pressure Injuries(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2023) Korkmaz, Serap; Sönmez, Münevver; Sonmez, Munevver; Kisacik, Oznur Gurlek; Sönmez, Münevver; Nursing; NursingABS T R A C T Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the current knowledge levels of intensive care nurses about pressure injuries and their attitudes toward preventing pressure injuries, and to reveal the relationship between these variables. Materials and methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted with 152 nurses, working in the Adult Intensive Care Units of a Training and Research Hospital. Data were collected between 10.08.2021 and 31.11.2021 with the Patient Information Form, Modified Pieper Pressure Ulcer Knowledge Test and Attitude toward Pressure Injury Prevention Scale. Frequency analysis, descriptive statistics, multiple logistic regression analysis and the structural equation modeling technique were used in the analysis of the study data. Results: The mean age of the nurses was 25.82 & PLUSMN; 3.42 years, 86.2% of them were female and 67.1% of them had a bachelor's degree. Total mean score of the Modified Pieper Pressure Ulcer Knowledge Test of the intensive care nurses was found to be 32.58 & PLUSMN; 6.58. The knowledge score of 113 out of 152 nurses was & GE;60% or above. The total mean score of the Attitude toward Pressure Injury Prevention Scale was 42.00 & PLUSMN; 5.70 and a total of 76.97% (117 participants) of them were found to score 75% or above on the scale. The results of the regression analysis showed that educational degree, and status of having training about pressure injuries did not affect the total mean score of the Knowledge Test and the Attitude Scale. However, it revealed that the frequency of encoun-tering a patient with pressure injuries in the unit where they work has affected the total mean score of the scales significantly (p < 0.05). As per the results of the structural equation model, the Modified Pieper Pressure Ulcer Knowledge Test scores of the nurses were found to have a statistically significant effect on the scores of the Attitude toward Pressure Injury Prevention Scale (p < 0.05). Conclusion: This study revealed that intensive care unit nurses had a positive attitude toward Pressure Injury Prevention and their knowledge was sufficient and that as the Modified Pieper Pressure Ulcer Knowledge Test scores increase, their positive attitude toward Pressure Injury Prevention also increases.Article Citation - WoS: 1How Attitudes Towards E-Learning Affected the Academic Achievement During the Covid-19 Pandemic: an Example of a Nursing Skills Teaching(Anadolu Univ, 2023) Gurlek Kisacik, Oznur; Sonmez, Munevver; Ozdas, AzizeIt is known that the students' attitudes toward e-learning are an important factor in achieving the targeted learning achievement. The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between attitudes toward e-learning and the academic achievements. This cross-sectional and correlational study was conducted with a total of 135 first-year nursing students. Data were collected via Student Information Form, General Attitudes toward E-Learning Scale, Vital Signs Skills Laboratory Practice Assessment Videos. Two-Way ANOVA, Pearson correlation analysis, multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze the data. The total mean score of the first-year NSs' general attitude scale toward e-learning was found to be 52.58 +/- 15.93. A statistically negative correlation was found between the "avoidance of e-learning" factor and the NSs' vital signs skills general achievement scores (r= -0.185; p= .035). Gender (beta 1= 5.399, p= 0.001), receiving adequate counseling and help on using the e-learning platform (beta 1= 4.895, p= 0.022) and avoidance of e-learning (beta 1= -0.222 p= 0.046) explained 20.9% of the variance in vital signs overall achievement score. The results showed that negative attitudes and negative satisfaction with e-learning may lead to a decrease in e-learning academic achievement.Article Consumer Behavior and Sustainability: What Role Does Eco-Friendly Packaging Play in Emerging Markets(Emerald Publishing, 2025) Güngördü Belbağ, A.Purpose – This study aims to offer a systematic review of eco-friendly packaged products from the consumer perspective in emerging markets. Design/methodology/approach – This study analyzed 47 Web of Science and SCOPUS articles using the PRISMA and theory-context-characteristics-methodology (TCCM) framework. Findings – This systematic review shows that prior research was mainly quantitative and relied heavily on the theory of planned behavior. This study categorized the articles by personal, product, price, place, promotion and external factors. Research primarily focused on personal factors, especially values and attitudes. Place-related factors were the least studied. Few studies explored mediators and moderators of purchase intention. Originality/value – This study shifts the focus of eco-friendly packaging research toward the consumer perspective, which was underexplored in the existing literature, particularly in emerging markets. While prior studies have primarily centered on manufacturers, this review synthesizes prior research showing that consumer behavior, knowledge and perception play a critical role in advancing sustainability and circular economy goals. This systematic review is the first to address this gap in emerging markets and offers implications for policymakers and businesses aiming to promote sustainable consumption in diverse socioeconomic settings. © 2025 Emerald Publishing Limited
