Book Part Adoption Factors of Electronic Health Record Systems(Springer, 2016) Kök,O.M.; Başoğlu, Ahmet Nuri; Daim,T.U.Today’s rapidly changing regulations, increasing healthcare costs, and most importantly globalization have made health record keeping an important issue. Electronic health record systems are rising as a crucial and unavoidable way of record keeping for healthcare. However, as other information technology implementations, electronic health records also have their own adoption processes and diffusion factors. The main goal of this study is to define a model to analyze the adoption process of electronic health record systems and to understand the diffusion factors. © 2016, Springer International Publishing Switzerland.Article A Cluster of Surprise Egg Toys as Designed Objects at the Intersection of Design and Culture(Common Ground Research Networks, 2022) Talu, NilüferThis study examines the cultural context of a cluster of surprise egg toys. The cluster contains 167 toys, collected between the years 1993 and 2015. The study methodology consisted of content analysis involving both qualitative interpretation and quantitative techniques. The interpretation is initiated with the toys’ physical materiality. Analysis is then developed on the compositional modalities of each toy, the place of each in the cluster, and the cluster as a whole. Qualitative interpretation and theoretical analysis of detailed descriptions and groupings of the cluster highlight the central themes found at the intersection of design and culture. Analysis of the cluster reveals that it carries the duality, or the tension, between modern and postmodern cultures with one elevating functionality and the other using storytelling as a means of creativity. They are designed objects and design things blending the two cultures in their physical content, and can be seen as artifacts that contribute to the value of design in everyday life within the context of mass culture. © Common Ground Research Networks, Nilüfer Talu, All Rights Reserved.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Assessment of Human-Robot Interaction Between Householders and Robotic Vacuum Cleaners(IEEE, 2022) Yapıcı, Nur Beril; Tuğlular, Tuğkan; Başoğlu, Ahmet NuriThe study presented in this paper investigates the application of the Hybrid Model, which is the combination of the two strategies of the Built-to-Order Model and the Dynamic Eco-strategy Explorer Model, to robotic vacuum cleaners. The Hybrid Model aims to switch the market power from seller-driven perception to buyer-driven one by creating an individual perspective from the eye of users rather than traditional customer segmentation. The human-centered approach established theoretically has been tested with a determined procedure that includes prototyping, testing, and evaluating the proposed customization system for robotic vacuum cleaners to increase the interaction degree with purchasers. In this case, robotic vacuum cleaners have been chosen to implement and assess the hypothesis. Firstly, the successful prototyping of the Hybrid Model requires well customer analysis and habits determination to build well-constructed and coherent interaction between the purchaser and the robot. We utilized a content analysis of robotic vacuum cleaners and elaborative, conventional interviews with early adopters and early majority of this technology in Turkey to establish credible scenarios and product options during the phases of the Hybrid Model practice. The results of the interview were discussed, and the evaluations have been reported.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Application of Human-Robot Interaction Features To Design and Purchase Processes of Home Robots(Springer, 2021) Yapıcı, Nur Beril; Tuğlular, Tuğkan; Başoğlu, Ahmet NuriProduction of home robots, such as robotic vacuum cleaners, currently focuses more on the technology and its engineering than the needs of people and their interaction with robots. An observation supporting this view is that the home robots are not customizable. In other words, buyers cannot select the features and built their home robots to order. Stemmed from this observation, the paper proposes an approach that starts with a classification of features of home robots. This classification concerns robot interaction with humans and the environment, a home in our case. Following the classification, the proposed approach utilizes a new hybrid model based on a built-to-order model and dynamic eco-strategy explorer model, enabling designers to develop a production line and buyers to customize their home robots with the classified features. Finally, we applied the proposed approach to robotic vacuum cleaners. We developed a feature model for robotic vacuum cleaners, from which we formed a common uses scenario model.Article Türkiye'de Endüstri Ürünleri Tasarımcısında Aranan Niteliklerin Lisans Eğitim Programları ve Kariyer Siteleri Üzerinden Karşılaştırmalı Analizi(Anadolu Üniversitesi, 2011) Erkarslan, Önder; Kaya, N. Aslı; Dilek, ÖzgünEndüstriyel tasarımcı bilinen bir meslek ünvanı olmasına rağmen, sektördeki uygulamalar göz önüne alındığında, mesleğin iş tanımı hala belirsizdir. Endüstri Ürünleri Tasarımı (EÜT) ve Endüstriyel Tasarım (ET) eğitimi veren kurumlar, mezunlarının sektöre yaptığı katkılarının yanında, piyasayı geliştirmek amacıyla kendilerini de sürekli gözden geçirmek, eksikliklerini gidermek; sanayinin beklentilerine cevap vermek durumundadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı Türkiye’deki Endüstri Ürünleri Tasarımı ve Endüstriyel Tasarım mezunlarının istihdamında sanayinin, endüstriyel tasarımcı kimliğini nasıl algıladığını, iş tanımları üstünden tespit edilmesini kapsar. Bu çalışma üç safhada yürütülmüştür: öncelikle derinlemesine bir literatür araştırmasının ardından, Türkiye’de Endüstri Ürünleri Tasarımı ve Endüstriyel Tasarım lisans eğitimi veren on üniversitenin mevcut ders programları ve içerikleri incelenmiş, Türkiye’deki yedi web portalındaki 2009 yılı son dört ayı içerisinde yayınlanmış iş ilanları taranıp incelenerek, sanayinin gözündeki endüstriyel tasarımcısının profili çıkarılmıştır. Bu çalışmanın sonucu, hem tasarım eğitimi ve mesleği hem de mezunların istihdamında endüstrinin talepleri ve beklentilerinin tatmini açısından önemlidir.Article A Re-Design Project: Correction of an Outdoor Fitness Equipment’s Design According To Its Users’s Anthropometric and Biomechanical Data(2018) Kaya, Nazife Aslı; Erkarslan, ÖnderThe aim of this study is to determine the anthropometric measurements of the users of outdoor fitness equipment and to re-design of an in-use outdoor fitness equipment according to these measurements. A total of 100 (50 male and 50 female) outdoor fitness equipment users, living in Eskisehir, Turkey, voluntarily participated in the study. Their ages ranged from 18 to 79 years and the mean of their ages were 31,2 (SD: 1,15277). The following human body dimensions were measured: stature, shoulder height, side-arm reach, fist (knuckle) height, forearm length, upper arm length, shoulder-fingertip length, knee height, malleolus height and hand length. The anthropometric measures of the adults and the outdoor fitness equipment’ dimensions were compared in order to identify any incompatibility between them. The data indicated a mismatch between the adults’ bodily dimensions and the outdoor fitness equipment available to them. Later on, in use fitness equipment’s motion output compared with biomechanical limits. Also, a mismatch was found between the motion output and biomechanical limits which might cause injuries. As these mismatches endanger public health, an outdoor fitness equipment, FE02 Stepper was re-designed according to its users’ anthropometric data and biomechanical limits as an example.Article The Turkish-German Affair in Films: a Dreamworld or a Netherworld?(Selçuk Üniversitesi, 2020) Tunç Cox, AyçaTurkish society’s perception of Germany has been going through a significant transformation. This is indisputably related with the crucial role Germany played by not taking sides with Turkey in its long-lasting attempts to access to the European Union. Through critical discourse analysis, this article explores how Turkish cinematic narratives have accounted for the thorny Turkish-German relations in the last two decades. The analyzed films, which are the products of the dynamic and heterogeneous new cinema of Turkey, have contributed to the knowledge produced about Germany, Germans and Turkish-Germans in the media. Therefore, focusing on these cinematic texts should reveal alternative modes of reading the enduring Turkish-German affair. As the close textual analysis has revealed, the films in question refuse the presumed label of “subaltern” for Turkey, and instead, provides a realistic and multifaceted account of said relationship.Article Reading Sociocultural Contexts Through Photographs: a Case Study of Women Photographs, Taken in the Early Republic Period of İzmir(2020) Yurt, Canberk; Türkmen, Doruk; Günduru, Beliz; Destici, Orkun; Aşıcı, BurçinThe individuals reflect the socio-cultural, economic and political changes in their society with their appearances, like a mirror. From the late Ottoman period, through the declaration of the Republic, several modernization steps have taken place in Turkish society. During that period, photography has taken a crucial role in society, both as a profession and social innovation instrument, by being a representative of the societal changes. Through that, regulations such as Dress Reform and Women’s Suffrage Code, and western fashion have influenced women’s image and re-defined their roles in modern Turkish society. These reforms provided more self-confıdence and freedom to modern Turkish women. By that, the way women express themselves via photographs has been changed. This study aims to analyze the socio-cultural contexts, from the perspective of five randomly selected women photographs from İpek Cabadak’s private collection, which is named “Photographs Entrusted to the Future”. As a research method, iconographic visual analysis has been conducted, by considering social, historical and cultural incidents at that era, with the guidance of İpek Cabadak. Visual analysis of the selected photographs has been made based on some fashion clues, pre-iconographic data and historical facts from the early republic period. The analysis provides useful information about the roles and positions of Turkish women, their interactions and positionings among the society, in order to define the time and place those photographs have been taken and links between socio-cultural incidents. According to this study, photography can be considered a beneficial and efficient tool for visual analysis in historic socio-cultural studies.Article Mismatch Between Classroom Furniture and Student Body Dimensions: Case of İzmir(2019) Kaya, Nazife Aslı; Erkarslan, ÖnderThe aim of the research is to determine the anthropometric measures of school children aged 12-13, who live in Izmir, Turkey, in order to propose anthropometrically appropriate school furniture (desk and chair), and to compare findings with the available classroom furniture produced according to Standards of Classroom Furniture, published by Republic Of Turkey General Directorate of Primary Education to determine potential mismatches. A total of twelve anthropometric data were collected by convenience sampling from 393 (207 male and 186 female) students.
