This study analyses the relationship between the e-government transformation success in Turkey and the eighteen success factors commonly assumed to be the causes of the success in the literature by using the data collected from four central and four local Turkish public institutions. It uses a quantitative methodology, which considers the e-government transformation success as the dependent variable and the eighteen success factors as the independent variables in a relational model. Apart from the similar studies in the literature, this study is a multidimensional quantitative one considering technical, social, organizational, economic, political and legal dimensions of the subject concurrently and it uses the data of not only external stakeholders (people using the e-government services) but also internal stakeholders (people working in the public institutions to provide the e-government services) while doing its analyses. The study collects more than 400 responses with a common survey from each stakeholder group and evaluates the possible relationships between the dependent variable and the independent variables by using the correlation, the regression and the factor analyses. The main results of these analyses show that even though there are significant and positive relationships between the probable success factors and the transformation success, these relationships are not cause and effect relationships as assumed in the other qualitative studies in the literature.

Straddling Two Continents: Social Policy and Welfare Politics in Turkey Aybars, Ayşe İdil (Wiley, 2010-12-01) There has been an increasing academic interest in understanding the dynamics of social policy in the Middle East and developing a conceptual 'model' to account for the particular characteristics of welfare arrangements in the countries of the region. While part of this framework, Turkey represents an exceptional case due to the Europeanization processes the country is undergoing in various policy areas, including social policy. The influence of the European Union on the shape of Turkish social policy, as il...
The determinants of portfolio investments to Turkey : from 1989 to 2008 Günayer, Elif; Küçükkaya, Halit Engin; Department of Business Administration (2009) This thesis analyzes the factors that determine the portfolio investments to Turkey in the period from 1989:04 to 2008:12. The factors that are examined are budget balance, current account balance, nominal exchange rate between the Turkish Lira and the US dollar, Turkish domestic interest rate, US 3-months Treasury Bill rate, annual inflation rate in Turkey and ISE 100 Index. A Vector Autoregressive Model is used for the purpose of examining the impacts of these variables on the level of portfolio investmen...
Analysis of success factors in e-government transformation in Turkey: are these factors really the causes of success? Iskender, Gokhan; Özkan Yıldırım, Sevgi (2015-09-01) This study analyses the relationship between the e-government transformation success in Turkey and the 18 success factors commonly assumed to be the causes of transformation success in the literature. The study uses a quantitative methodology previously developed by the same researchers, which considers transformation success as the dependent variable and the 18 success factors as the independent variables in a relational model and applies correlation, regression and factor analyses to the collected data to...
Building a methodology to assess the e-government transformation success Iskender, Gokhan; Özkan Yıldırım, Sevgi (null; 2012-12-01) This study develops a methodology to evaluate the weights of probable factors which might be effective in the success of egovernment transformation by using a sample obtained from two different stakeholder groups in four central and four local Turkish public institutions. One stakeholder group contains the citizens using the services provided by e-government (external stakeholders) while the other contains the workers of public institutions providing these services (internal stakeholders). The study develop...
A Meta-Synthesis Study Identifying the Landscapes of Pre- and In-service Math Teachers' Knowledge in the Turkish Context GULMEZ-DAG, Gulcin; Yıldırım, Ali (2016-01-01) This study aims to present a synthesis of empirical studies conducted in Turkey on pre- and in-service math teachers' knowledge and to recapitulate the existing conceptualization in this particular line of research in the local context. Considering the interwoven and sophisticated nature of teachers' knowledge (Seidel & Shavelson, 2007), it sets out to enhance the understanding on what constitutes and should constitute these math teachers' knowledge by discovering the frequently studied research strands in ...
