Article Citation - WoS: 19Citation - Scopus: 20The consumers' social media use in choosing physicians and hospitals: the case study of the province of Izmir(Wiley, 2017) Tengilimoglu, Dilaver; Sarp, Nilgn; Yar, Cemre Eda; Bektas, Meral; Hidir, Mehmet Nil; Korkmaz, EsinManifested as a reflection of the Internet technology progress, web 2.0 has transformed communication among people to different dimensions while increasing the social use of Internet. Thus, the concept of social media has entered our lives. Blogs, forums, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube applications are but few of the social media platforms with active users exceeding millions. As in many other subjects, these and others are also environments where people share information and their positive or negative experiential views with respect to healthcare issues and services. Hence, the social media communication and exchange of information are deemed influential on the process of receiving health services. In the present study that aims to determine social media use of individuals in their choice of physicians, dentists and hospitals, a survey, as a data collection instrument, has been carried out to 947 residents of the province of Izmir. Individuals participating in the study have stated that they have used social media in choosing a physician (41.9% of the participants), dentist (34.1% of the participants) and hospitals (41.7% of the participants). The study has revealed that individuals are affected by social media in their healthcare choices.

Özellikle sürüş konforu ve araç içi deneyimi geliştirmeye yönelik çabaların yanı sıra, enerji tasarrufu ve çevre koruma hedefleri doğrultusunda otomobil üreticilerine rekabet avantajı sağlayan iki teknoloji öne çıkmaktadır: elektrikli araçlar ve otonom araçlar. Elektrikli araçlar tamamen yeni bir teknoloji olmamakla birlikte, günümüzde çevresel kaygıların artması bu araçların daha iyi performans, fiyat ve ulaşılabilirlik ile yeniden popülerlik kazanmasına yol açmıştır. Bu çalışmada, yeni sayılabilecek bu iki araç türü için tüketicilerin satın alma niyetleri ve bu niyetleri etkileyebilecek faktörler belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Araştırma, Ankara ilinde yaşayan 18 yaş ve üzeri 384 kişi üzerinde çevrimiçi anket uygulanarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda katılımcıların %85,7'sinin halihazırda otomobile sahip olduğu, ancak sadece %1'inin elektrikli araca sahip olduğu, %51'inin elektrikli araçlar hakkında, %34,3'ünün ise otonom araçlar hakkında orta ve iyi düzeyde bilgi sahibi olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Araç tercihinde en fazla önem verdikleri konuların başında aracın güvenliği gelirken, bunu aracın fiyatı ve yakıt tüketimi izlemektedir. Katılımcıların büyük çoğunluğu gelecekte elektrikli araç satın almayı düşündüğünü ifade etmiştir. Elektrikli araçlarda en dezavantajlı konu olarak menzillerinin sınırlı olması, otonom araçlarda ise aracın olumsuz hava koşullarından etkilenme endişesi belirtilmiştir.Article Yapay Zekâ Benimsenmesi ile Marka Sermayesi Arasındaki Karşılıklı Etkileşim: Türkiye Üzerine Ampirik Bir İnceleme(2025) Tengilimoglu, Dilaver; Bas, Mehmet; Dikici, İlkeGünümüzün dijitalleşen iş dünyasında, Yapay Zekâ (YZ) teknolojilerinin benimsenmesi, iç marka yönetimi açısından işletmeler için stratejik bir unsur haline gelmiştir. Bu araştırmanın amacı, çalışan algısı temelinde YZ Benimsenmesinin (YZB), Çalışan Temelli Marka Sermayesi (ÇTMS) üzerindeki etkisini incelemek ve bu iki değişken arasındaki karşılıklı ilişkiyi değerlendirmektir. Araştırma, nicel yönteme dayalı olarak nedensel (ilişkisel) tarama deseniyle yürütülmüştür. Veriler, kolayda örnekleme yöntemiyle belirlenen ve Türkiye’de YZ teknolojilerini aktif biçimde kullanan işletmelerde görev yapan 398 çalışandan çevrim içi anket yoluyla elde edilmiştir. Veri toplama aracında, Türkiye’de müşteri temelli geliştirilen marka sermayesi ölçeği çalışanlara uyarlanmış; uyarlamanın geçerliliği ön analiz ve pilot çalışmayla test edilmiştir. Analiz sürecinde IBM SPSS for Windows v.22’de faktör yapısı incelenmiş, ardından IBM SPSS AMOS v.24 ile yapısal eşitlik modellemesi gerçekleştirilerek model doğrulanmış ve test edilmiştir. Bulgular, YZB’nin ÇTMS’yi, ÇTMS’nin de YZB’yi anlamlı ve pozitif yönde etkilediğini göstermiş; değişkenler arasında çift yönlü bir ilişki olduğu saptanmıştır. Bu etkiler, YZB için Kaynak Tabanlı Görüş ve Dinamik Yetenekler Kuramı; ÇTMS için ise Örgütsel Kimlik ve Sosyal Değişim Kuramı çerçevesinde açıklanmaktadır. Sonuçlar, YZ teknolojilerinin çalışan temelli marka değeri ve rekabet avantajı açısından kritik rol oynadığını ortaya koymaktadır.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 10Evaluating the Current Situation of Oral and Dental Healthcare Services in Turkey and Recommending Solutions(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2017) Ekici, Omer; Tengilimoglu, Dilaver; Isik, OguzObjectives: To identify issues with Turkeys oral and dental healthcare services and develop recommendations for their effective resolution. Methods: This study analyzes Turkey's oral and dental healthcare system and its problematic issues and surveys other systems and reform strategies being implemented worldwide. The questionnaire-based field survey asked 560 dentists and 84 managers working in public oral and dental healthcare centers in 12 different regions and 52 central and chamber directors affiliated with the Turkish Dental Association about dental health issues and potential restructuring in dental healthcare in Turkey. The survey comprised four sections that, in addition to gathering participant information, inquired into the current overall condition of the Turkish dental healthcare system, the problems necessitating system restructuring, and recommendations to resolve these problems. Results: Participants agree that there are structural and functional problems in Turkey's dental healthcare system. Although there is an overall consensus in regard to the recommendations for resolving the problems, priorities differ among participant groups. However, participants do agree that preventive services in Turkey are insufficient and require improvement. Conclusions: This study exposed issues in oral and dental healthcare services in Turkey that fall into four categories: management and organization, service delivery, human resources, and financing. Based on the results, we propose a new organization model for oral and dental healthcare in Turkey that is integrated within the healthcare system using a public health approach and that prioritizes preventive healthcare services.

This study also gathers both Turkish and Palestinian citizens' beliefs and attitudes towards health determinants. To assess and compare citizens' attitudes toward health care and health determinants a total of 4,100 questionnaires were distributed, whereas 2,600 were distributed in Turkey, and another 1,500 questionnaires in the Palestine. According to the research, the individuals surveyed in Turkey noted that smoking, stress, and getting access to a medical institution were noted as the most influential determinants which affect their health; whereas, the people of Palestine thought that income status, and educational levels were the most influential factors in health. In addition, it was found that there were some statistically significant differences between participants' responses in Turkey and Palestine; however, what both samples shared was that economic factors were an important factor affecting health beliefs and attitudes, regardless of where a participant lived. Finally, comparisons and future recommendations are made to improve health-related beliefs, attitudes and behaviors in both countries.Article Factors Affecting Dentists' Intention To Adopt Artificial Intelligence: An Extension of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) Model(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2025) Alqaifi, Faten; Tengilimoglu, DilaverPurposeAdvancements in science and technology have integrated artificial intelligence (AI) into dentistry, improving treatment processes, operational efficiency, and clinical outcomes. However, AI adoption among dentists remains underexplored, hindering progress in oral healthcare. This study aims to identify key barriers to AI adoption and examine factors influencing dentists' intention to use AI.Design/methodology/approachA quantitative cross-sectional approach was employed, utilizing self-administered questionnaires distributed online and across various dental clinics and hospitals in Ankara, Turkey. A total of 440 dentists participated in the study. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS and SmartPLS.FindingsThe study found that AI-anxiety negatively affects the intention to adopt AI in dentistry, showing a medium (almost large) effect that is stronger than other UTAUT factors such as performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and social influence, which demonstrated only small effects. Dentists with higher anxiety about learning and sociotechnical blindness are less likely to adopt AI, while concerns about job replacement and AI-configuration have less but still significant impact.Research limitations/implicationsThese results contribute to the growing body of knowledge on technology adoption in oral healthcare and provide practical implications for technology developers, policymakers, and other stakeholders seeking to facilitate AI integration in dentistry.Originality/valueThis study provides novel insights into AI adoption in dentistry, offering guidance for future development and integration, and addressing a critical research gap in a growing field-particularly in Turkey, where implementation is still in its early stages.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 10Convergence of Economic Growth and Health Expenditures in Oecd Countries: Evidence From Non-Linear Unit Root Tests(Frontiers Media Sa, 2023) Celik, Esref Ugur; Omay, Tolga; Tengilimoglu, DilaverIntroductionThe relationship between human capital, health spending, and economic growth is frequently neglected in the literature. However, one of the main determinants of human capital is health expenditures, where human capital is one of the driving forces of growth. Consequently, health expenditures affect growth through this link. MethodsIn the study, these findings have been attempted to be empirically tested. Along this axis, health expenditure per qualified worker was chosen as an indicator of health expenditure, and output per qualified worker was chosen as an indicator of economic growth. The variables were treated with the convergence hypothesis. Due to the non-linear nature of the variables, the convergence hypothesis was carried out with non-linear unit root tests. ResultsThe analysis of 22 OECD countries from 1976 to 2020 showed that health expenditure converged for all countries, and there was a significant degree of growth convergence (except for two countries). These findings show that health expenditure convergence has significantly contributed to growth convergence. DiscussionPolicymakers should consider the inclusiveness and effectiveness of health policies while making their economic policies, as health expenditure convergence can significantly impact growth convergence. Further research is needed to understand the mechanisms behind this relationship and identify specific health policies most effective in promoting economic growth.Article Citation - WoS: 34Citation - Scopus: 33Effect of Organisational Trust, Job Satisfaction, Individual Variables on the Organisational Commitment in Healthcare Services(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2017) Tekingunduz, Sabahattin; Top, Mehmet; Tengilimoglu, Dilaver; Karabulut, ErdemThe purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of the organisational trust dimensions, job satisfaction dimensions, and several personal characteristics (age, education status, gender, the department that is worked at, duration of work, income, and marital status) on the organisational commitment. In this study, all staff working at a public hospital in Bingol, Turkey, have been taken into consideration. A total of 516 questionnaires were taken into consideration for data analysis in this study. In the study, organisational trust dimensions, job satisfaction dimensions, and personal variables were found to explain affective commitment variable in the proportion of 37.5%; continuance commitment variable in the proportion of 27.2%; and normative commitment variable in the proportion of 39.8%. This study revealed that cognitive trust, managers, communication, the structure of work, gender, and the department worked (laboratory or surgery room) were the significant predictors of affective commitment. Income, cognitive trust, education status, emotional trust, and the structure of work and additional opportunities have been found to have a meaningful effect on continuance commitment. Cognitive trust, promotion, managers, the structure of work, education status, emotional trust, and the structure of work, gender, and emotional trust had a meaningful effect on normative commitment. This study could have potential practical implications in healthcare management.Article Sağlık İşletmelerinin Kurumsal Yönetim ve Sürdürülebilirlik İlkelerine Uyum Düzeyleri Hisse Senetlerinin Fiyat Dalgalanmasını Azaltıyor Mu? Borsa İstanbul Örneği(2025) Tengilimoglu, Dilaver; Sayar, Ali Rıza Zafer; Tümer, TolgaSağlık işletmeleri hem bireylerin sağlığına hem de ülkelerin ekonomilerine çok büyük katkılar sunmaktadır. Sağlık işletmelerinin- diğer tüm işletmeler için de geçerli olduğu üzere- finansal piyasalardan yeterli düzeyde fon toplayabilmesi büyük önem taşımaktadır. Kurumsal yönetim ve sürdürülebilirlik ilkelerine yüksek düzeyde uyumun, yatırımcı talebini ve güvenini artırarak işletmelerin hisse senedi fiyat dalgalanmasını azaltması beklenmektedir. Böylelikle, işletmelerin finansal piyasalardan daha kolay ve daha fazla fon temin edebilmesi mümkün olabilir. Bu çalışmada; Türkiye'de halka açık sağlık işletmelerinin kurumsal yönetim ve sürdürülebilirlik ilkelerine uyum düzeylerinin, hisse senedi fiyat dalgalanması üzerindeki etkisi ampirik olarak araştırılmıştır. Araştırmanın bulguları, sağlık işletmelerinin kurumsal yönetim ilkelerine uyum düzeylerinin hisse senedi fiyat dalgalanmasını azalttığını, ancak bu etkinin istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olmadığını göstermektedir. Ayrıca, sağlık işletmelerinin sürdürülebilirlik ilkelerine uyum düzeylerinin hisse senedi fiyat dalgalanması üzerinde azaltıcı bir etkisi olmadığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Bu durum, kurumsal yönetim ve sürdürülebilirlik alanlarının ve ilgili raporlamaların Türkiye’de hâlen görece yeni olmasıyla açıklanabilir.
