This article examines the effect of the multiple performance criteria usage on Just in Time Production (JIT) and Total Quality Management (TQM) implementation levels. Earlier studies have highlighted that JIT and TQM implementation levels play a major role in the success of organizational performance. Therefore the aim of this study was to determine the significant Balanced Scorecard (BSC) perspectives that may affect JIT and TQM using Logit regression analysis. The analysis process was executed on a sample of 117 industrial organizations from the top 500 large-scale industrial organizations of Turkey for 2004. Binary logistic regression models were estimated for the stated sample. Regression estimates showed that the two perspectives of “internal business” and “customer” enhanced the JIT implementation level in organizations. In addition, four perspectives, “innovation and learning”, “customer”, “sales” and “financial”, were found to be significant in influencing the TQM implementation level in organizations. Finally, to the best of our knowledge, this study is the first empirical study that investigates the relationships between JIT, TQM and multiple performance measurement concepts.

The effects of positive core self and external evaluations on performance appraisals
Güven, Lale; Sümer, Canan H; Department of Industrial and Organizational Psychology (2007)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of core self-evaluations (CSEs) and core external-evaluations (CEEs) on performance evaluations. It was hypothesized that people with higher levels of CSEs and CEEs would be more lenient in their performance ratings, when rating neutral performance. The second hypothesis of the study was that people with higher and lower CSEs would engage more in halo when rating neutral performance compared to people with average levels of CSEs. It was further hypoth...
Comparison of the resource allocation cababilities of project management software packages in resource constrained project scheduling problems
Hekimoğlu, Özge; Serpil, Canan; Department of Industrial Engineering (2007)
In this study, results of a comparison on benchmark test problems are presented to investigate the performance of Primavera V.4.1 with its two resource allocation priority rules and MS Project 2003. Resource allocation capabilities of the packages are measured in terms of deviation from the upper bound of the minimum makespan. Resource constrained project scheduling problem instances are taken from PSPLIB which are generated under a factorial design from ProGen. Statistical tests are applied to the results ...
The inhibitory effects and removal of dieldrin continuous upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactors
Bayramoğlu, Tuba Hande; DEMİRER, GÖKSEL NİYAZİ (Elsevier BV, 2003-09-01)
The inhibitory effects and removal efficiency of dieldrin (DLD) in anaerobic reactors were investigated. Anaerobic toxicity assay (ATA) experiments conducted in batch reactors revealed that 30 mg/l DLD had inhibitory effects on the unacclimated mixed anaerobic cultures. Continuous reactor experiments performed in a lab-scale two-stage upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor system which was fed with ethanol as the sole carbon source, indicated that anaerobic granular cultures could be successfully ac...
A balanced scorecard model for the performance measurement of enterprise resource planning imlementation
Arık, Ayşe Gül; Onay, Lamia Zeynep; Department of Business Administration (2006)
In this study, the applicability of the Balanced Scorecard Framework, developed by Robert S. Kaplan and David P. Norton in 1992 for measuring performance at the organizational level or the business unit level, to performance measurement during the implementation phase of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems is investigated. A model based on the Balanced Scorecard Framework is presented with sample indicators for each of the four perspectives -Financial Perspective, Customer Perspective, Internal Busin...
The Effect of Stake Size in Experimental Bargaining and Distribution Games: A Survey
KARAGÖZOĞLU, EMİN; Urhan, Umit Baris (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2017-03-01)
We review the literature on bargaining and distribution experiments to investigate whether changes in stake size have significant effects on behaviour in laboratory/field settings. We conclude that experiments in this field do not lead to clear/common results. The joint presence of opposing factors (e.g., increasing relative risk aversion and increasing cost of fairness) might be one reason contributing to this. Moreover, we argue that variables such as subjects' financial conditions, cognitive abilities, r...
