Job openings are getting scarce, as the number of applicants are increasing. Evaluation of job interviews is a serious burden for the human resource departments. Automatic evaluation of candidates applying for jobs is an important domain open for improvement. Evaluation of applicant videos from social signals is possible but may not be enough to determine candidates’ suitability for jobs that require social stress. The interview itself is a social stressor, as widely known from the Trier social stress test. In this study we aimed to aid the candidate evaluation process, based on physiological signals collected from the facial area. More specifically, we tried to determine the pleasantness of video strips of an applicant based on the EMG, SCR, pupil and HR signals. A simple binary kNN classifier was able to determine the pleasantness with an accuracy of 73%.

Developing a roadmap for knowledge management in construction industry Erkan, Ceyhun Selim; Nielsen, Yasemin; Department of Civil Engineering (2007) High turnover rate of employees in construction cause companies in the sector struggle against knowledge loss. Due to the high competition in the market, companies differentiate by keeping and increasing their intellectual capital generally acknowledged as the main source of competitive advantage. Knowledge Management (KM) is defined as any process or practice of creating, acquiring, capturing, sharing, and using knowledge, wherever it resides, to increase learning and performance by sustaining organisation...
Aiding culturally responsive assessment in schools in a globalising world Nortvedt, Guri A.; Wiese, Eline; Brown, Martin; Burns, Denise; McNamara, Gerry; O'Hara, Joe; Altrichter, Herbert; Fellner, Magdalena; Herzog-Punzenberger, Barbara; Nayir, Funda; Taneri, Pervin Oya (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-2-01) Across the world, teachers' classroom assessment tasks and responsibilities are becoming more diverse due to increased migration. In this review, we address how migrant students are affected by assessment, both summative and formative, at the classroom level, with a focus on culturally responsive assessment (CRA). Previous research has shown that CRA practices mainly occur in student-centred classrooms. Furthermore, both student and teacher beliefs about teaching and learning might negatively affect migrant...
Development and Validation of Formative Feedback Perceptions Scale in Project Courses for Undergraduate Students Sat, Mustafa (2017-01-01) There has been an increasing trend towards project-based approach in higher education. For that reason, assessing and evaluating students' perceptions on formative feedback becomes an important aspect of students' learning in groupwork. Valid and reliable instruments are required to measure how students perceive formative feedback given to them from multiple sources. Therefore, the aim of the current study is to develop and validate a multidimensional formative feedback perception scale (FFPS) for the asses...
Modeling general equilibrium for socially responsible macroeconomics: Seeking for the alternatives to fight jobless growth in Turkey Telli , Çağatay; Voyvoda, Ebru; Yeldan, Erinç (Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi (Ankara, Turkey), 2006-12) Despite rapid growth and a significant surge in exports, Turkish economy could not generate jobs at the desired rate. In the post-2001 crisis period Turkish GDP expanded by a cumulative 25% in real terms, and yet the unemployment rate could not be brought below the 10% mark. By some, the meager job creation of the economy is due to the excessive regulatory framework and the tax burden; while others from the structuralist tradition see the joblessness problem as a global phenomenon due to the deflatio...
Is there a job after college?: Higher education’s impact on transition from school to work Bayırbağ, Mustafa Kemal (Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi (Ankara, Turkey), 2013-12-1) This article examines the impact of the design/organisation of higher education system on the determination of the career paths, and thus the patterns of post-graduate unemployment, of university students. The findings of the article come from a field research conducted among the 2011 graduates of the Faculty of Economic and Administrative Sciences (FEAS) of Middle East Technical University (METU). The research results highlight the existence of four different strategies as students cope with the transition...
