The aim of the current study is represented in three main aspects. Firstly, it is aimed to check the fit of "the risk perception model" developed by Deery (1999) among young male non-professional and taxi driver samples. Secondly, it is aimed to analyze the effect of driving as a profession on risk perception and risk-taking behaviors of drivers. Thirdly, it is aimed to facilitate driving simulation in order to measure driver behaviors by comparing the results with self-reported driver behaviors. 40 young male taxi drivers and 40 young male non-professional drivers, aged between 18-25 years old, participated in the study. In this purpose, Vision Test regarding Traffic (TIGT); Turkish versions of Risk Perception Inventory (Rosenbloom, Shahar, Elharar, & Danino, 2008), Arnett’s Inventory of Sensation Seeking (Arnett, 1994), Driver Skill Inventory (Lajunen & Summala, 1995) and Driver Behavior Questionnaire with positive driver behaviors (Özkan, & Lajunen, 2005) were used to measure participants’ hazard perceptions, risk perceptions, selfassessed driving skills, risk acceptance levels and self-reported driving behaviors, respectively. Additionally, the driving simulator was included in the study to measure participants’ simulated driving behaviors. Results revealed that young male taxi drivers and non-professional drivers significantly differed in novel sensations and average speeds in the driving simulator. Moreover, hierarchical regression analyses revealed that both self-reported and simulated driving behaviors were predicted by participants’ risk perceptions, self-assessed driving skills and sensation seeking attitudes. Finally, self-reported driving behaviors were found to predict both speeding behaviors and driver mistakes of both driver groups.

Risk perception and driving performance comparisons between young male non-professional drivers and taxi drivers
Erkuş, Uğur Uygar; Özkan, Türker; Department of Occupational Health and Safety (2017)
The aim of the current study is represented in three main aspects. Firstly, it is aimed to check the fit of "the risk perception model" developed by Deery (1999) among young male non-professional and taxi driver samples. Secondly, it is aimed to analyze the effect of driving as a profession on risk perception and risk-taking behaviors of drivers. Thirdly, it is aimed to facilitate driving simulation in order to measure driver behaviors by comparing the results with self-reported driver behaviors. 40 young m...
Diffusion of sustainable production approach into Turkish manufacturing industry : pilot applications and sectoral assessments
Alkaya, Emrah; Demirer, Göksel Niyazi; Department of Environmental Engineering (2013)
The main aim of this study was (i) to investigate the applicability of various sustainable production measures in different industrial sectors and (ii) to conduct a sectoral assessment study for a selected sector in order to contribute to the diffusion of sustainable production approach into Turkish manufacturing industry. As a result of the environmental performance evaluations, objectives were set for six companies from six different sectors in order to decrease the negative environmental impacts and prod...
Modelling Energy Consumption of the Republic of Serbia using Linear Regression and Artificial Neural Network Technique
Protic, Milan; Fathurrahman, Fahman; Raos, Miomir (Mechanical Engineering Faculty in Slavonski Brod, 2019-02-01)
The objectives of the study are twofold. First, we aim to examine the most influential socio-economic indicators to explain energy consumption in Republic of Serbia. The second objective is to develop models that are able to predict the future energy consumption in the Republic of Serbia. This could be the first important step towards proper energy management in the country. Several potential socio-economic indicators are selected to be the independent variables. Regression analysis is conducted to select t...
Hybrid ranking approaches based on data envelopment analysis and outranking relations
Eryılmaz, Utkan; Karasakal, Esra; Department of Industrial Engineering (2006)
In this study two different hybrid ranking approaches based on data envelopment analysis and outranking relations for ranking alternatives are proposed. Outranking relations are widely used in Multicriteria Decision Making (MCDM) for ranking the alternatives and appropriate in situations when we have limited information on the preference structure of the decision maker. Yet to apply these methods DM should provide exact values for method parameters (weights, thresholds etc.) as well as basic information suc...
Effectivness of a security portal for improving students knowledge and skills in IT security
Pancar, Nilay; Delialioğlu, Ömer; Department of Computer Education and Instructional Technology (2014)
The aim of the current study was to explore (i) the initial perceived knowledge and skill level of high school students, and teachers in IT security; (ii) the effect of a developed Security Portal (SP) on perceived knowledge and skill level of the high school students in IT security, and (iii) students’ satisfaction with the SP. In line with the current study aims, descriptive research design and survey method was employed. As the data collection instrument, two different versions of the Perceived Knowledge...
