The determinants of earnings differentials in Ankara and İstanbul
Akçomak , İ. Semih; Kasnakoğlu, E. Zehra (Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi (Ankara, Turkey), 2003-6-1)
In this study, an attempt is made to compare and contrast the determinants of earnings differentials in Ankara and İstanbul. The determinants of earnings differentials are first examined with semi-logarithmic single equation models based on the basic human capital approach. Secondly, extended models are formed in which all the variables are expressed as dummy variables. In general, the average per hour earnings in İstanbul is higher than in Ankara. It is found that age, gender, education, job status a...

I show that females and respondents that have trust and privacy concerns ar...
The Determinants of the Price-Cost Margins of the Manufacturing Firms in Turkey
Çulha, Ali; Yalçın, Cihan (Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi (Ankara, Turkey), 2005-12)
This study examines the determinants of the price-cost margins in the Turkish manufacturing industry spanning from 1995 to 2003. The literature on this subject points to the importance of market structure, business cycles and input costs. Utilizing panel data econometric techniques on a large number of manufacturing firms by conditioning on their size, age, ownership and export orientation, the study finds that there exists a marked difference among the firms’ pricing behaviors according to their market sha...
The dynamics of the differentiation of housing production in metropolitan areas: the case of Eskişehir
Aslaner, Arzu; Balaban, Osman; Department of City and Regional Planning (2019)
The aim of this study is to determine the factors affecting the housing production processes in Eskişehir and the effects of these processes on the existing urban development dynamics. Similar to the growth trend across the country, there has been a growth in construction investments, especially in new housing production in Eskişehir after 2000. In addition, metropolitan districts, namely Tepebaşı and Odunpazarı, dominate the total new housing production in the city. In this regard, focusing on the period a...
