Testing for rational bubbles in the Turkish stock market
Başoğlu, Fatma; Sezer, Ali Devin; Department of Financial Mathematics (2012)
In this thesis we empirically examine whether the Turkish stock market is driven by rational bubbles over the period between March 1990 and February 2012. The bubble periods are estimated using a recently developed right-tailed unit root test, the generalized sup augmented Dickey-Fuller test of Phillips, Shi and Yu (2011a). Applying their bubble detection and location strategies to weekly price dividend ratio series, we find strong evidence for the existence of rational bubbles in the Turkish stock market b...
Testing for the unemployment hysteresis in Turkey
Akçay, Sıla; Yıldırım Kasap, Dilem; Department of Economics (2013)
This study tests for hysteresis of unemployment for Turkey over the period of January 2005 – May 2013. Allowing for the business cycle asymmetry of unemployment, with steep increases during recessions, followed by more gradual declines during expansions, we employ the threshold autoregressive (TAR) type unit root test of Caner and Hansen (2001). The empirical findings reveal that the nonlinear unit root test provides strong evidence in favour of the natural rate hypothesis while the standard linear unit roo...
Testing for unconditional convergence of Turkish regions and provinces using a time series approach
Özkan, Pelin; Erlat, Haluk; Department of Economics (2005)
This study investigates unconditional convergence of Turkish regions and provinces. A recently introduced time series procedure developed by Nahar and Inder (2002) is used to test the convergence hypothesis for the period 1975-2001. Both the Ordinary Least Square and the Seemingly Unrelated Regression techniques are applied to analyze convergence of sixty five provinces, seven geographical regions as well as 12 NUTS - 1 regions of Turkey. The empirical findings indicate that most of the cases yield no evide...
Testing the impact of formal interpreting training on working memory capacity: Evidence from Turkish-English students-interpreters
ANTONOVA ÜNLÜ, ELENA; Sağın Şimşek, Sultan Çiğdem (2018-07-01)
The article presents two studies examining the impact of formal interpreting training (FIT) on Working Memory Capacity (WMC) of student-interpreters. In Study 1, we compared the storage and processing WMCs of last-year student-interpreters with the storage and processing WMCs of first-year student-interpreters and last-year Foreign Language Education (FLE) students. In Study 2, we examined the impact of FIT on the WMC of students interpreters via comparing their results on the WM tasks at the beginning and ...
Evaluation of liquefaction in Karasu River floodplain after the October 23, 2011, Van (Turkey) earthquake
Akin, Mutluhan; Özvan, Ali; Akin, Muge K.; Topal, Tamer (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2013-12-01)
The eastern shore of Lake Van was shaken by a powerful earthquake (M (w) 7.2) on October 23, 2011. The epicenter of the earthquake was located at about 30 km north of the Van Province, which is one of the main cities in the Eastern Anatolia. The Van Province and particularly its largest district Ercis were adversely affected by the earthquake, and unfortunately, a total of 600 people lost their lives. Besides severe constructional damages and building collapses, ground deformations were widespread at many l...
