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.

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 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.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 14Informal Payments in Health Systems: Purpose and Occurrences in Turkey(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2015) Tengilimoglu, Dilaver; Guzel, Alper; Toygar, Anil; Akinci, Fevzi; Dziegielewski, Sophia F.Informal payments constitute a significant portion of out-of-pocket payments in health systems, especially in developing countries. This study examined the current status of informal payments in Turkey and the opinions, attitudes, and behavior of individuals toward informal payments. To examine this concept, 1,033 residents in Ankara, the capital city of Turkey, were surveyed. The 28-item questionnaire used in data collection was developed based on previous research and expert opinions. The data analysis revealed that approximately 29% of the study participants made informal payments in return for the medical service they received. Three out of 4 people who made informal payments were from a low-income group. Informal payments were made in the form of cash prior to medical procedures and also as gifts following the procedures. Future recommendations for health policymakers include designing a new patient copay mechanism where informal payments can be effectively incorporated into the formal payment system, assistance to low-income individuals, and improvement in current medical staff salaries that would discourage taking such payments.Article Citation - WoS: 3Evaluation of Students' Opinions Regarding Distance Learning Practices in Turkish Universities During the Covid-19 Pandemic(Tuba-turkish Acad Sciences, 2021) Isik, Oguz; Tengilimoglu, Dilaver; Tekin, Perihan Senel; Tosun, Nurperihan; Zekioglu, AysuThe purpose of this study is to identify hether students at Turkish universities are having difficulties in the distance learning process and to reveal their opinions regarding the system. Using a cross-cultural survey design, data were collected from 5052 students. Based on the collected data, 58.5% of the students have asynchronous distance learning classes in their universities. Access to distance learning classes is one of the problems, and it is attributed to computers, internet, and connectivity issues as well as with starting the lessons too early or late. A majority of participants (73.7%) found class materials uploaded by lecturers to distance learning systems to be sufficient or partially sufficient, and 36.7% stated that they had problems accessing resources regarding their homework. Students' satisfaction level with the distance learning system scored 4.4 out of 10. According to the evaluation regarding whether the level of satisfaction of participants varied across the type of university, the satisfaction level of students in public universities is generally low (score of 4.3 out of 10) compared to satisfaction in foundation universities (4.9 out of 10).Article Citation - WoS: 40Citation - Scopus: 53Impacts of Covid-19 Pandemic Period on Depression, Anxiety and Stress Levels of the Healthcare Employees in Turkey(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2021) Tengilimoglu, Dilaver; Zekioglu, Aysu; Tosun, Nurperihan; Isik, Oguz; Tengilimoglu, OnurThe COVID-19 pandemic has turned into a public health issue since December 2019 and has risen in all countries in the world. The healthcare employees taking part in the pandemic will eventually be affected by the process. The aim of the study is to determine the levels of the anxiety, depression, and stress of the healthcare employees during the COVID-19 pandemic in Turkey. As the data collection tool, an e-survey was used. In the first section, Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21) was used. In the second section of the survey, the problems experienced by the healthcare employees during the pandemic and their working media were aimed to be defined. In the last section, the socio-demographic features of the employees were investigated. 2076 healthcare employees participated in the study. The results showed that the major cause of the anxiety or stress among healthcare employees comes from the fear to contaminate the COVID-19 virus to their families (86.9%). It was observed that the levels of depression, anxiety and stress of female employees are higher than that of male employees (p < 0.003). The highest depression, anxiety and stress levels of healthcare employees come from the pandemic, emergency, and internal services (p < 0.001). Health managers and policymakers need to make a move immediately to find solutions for the physical and psychological needs of the health employees. On the other hand, in order to minimize the risk, preparation of the work power plans beforehand and inclusion of obligatory referral chain into health services can be suggested.
