Abstract In this study, the survey method was used to analyse the life satisfaction of three different refugee groups that are Syrian, Iranian, and Afghan who lives in the Denizli province of Turkey. According to the outcomes of in-depth interviews and surveys conducted on 150 refugees, the most common reason for immigrating to Turkey is the civil war-factor. The survey results show that the Afghan refugees’ level of income increased compared to that of before immigration. Afghan and Syrian refugees are more satisfied with their lives in Turkey compared to Iranian immigrants. Besides, uneducated and male refugees, living in a country with the same religion as the departure country are more satisfied than other immigrants. Therefore Iranian immigrants, most of whom are not Muslim, are planning to migrate again from Turkey to more advanced economies. In sum, the results of this study indicate that the major factors affecting life satisfaction of immigrants are educational status, religion, gender, and income.

Method Approach

Our aim was to investigate some predictors and outcomes of family-to-work enrichment (FWE) via a mixed-method approach. We sampled 447 married employees of an Italian factory. Survey results from Study 1 showed that emotional support from family positively predicted FWE, while this latter mediated the associations between the former on one side, and work engagement and life satisfaction on the other. Moreover, extra-household support directly associated positively with life satisfaction. Evidence from 20 anthropological in-depth interviews (Study 2) returned a more complex picture, highlighting the gendered role of partners inside couples, the importance of kinship support, the sense and the value of filiation and parenthood in their connection with job roles, the complex and continuous interplay between family and life domains. In combination, results from both studies stressed the importance of family support; additionally, evidences from Study 2 suggested that FWE could be better understood taking into account crossover dynamics and the compresence of work-to-family enrichment and conflict. In sum, these studies contributed to shed light on FWE dynamics, an under-researched topic in Italy, whose knowledge could be of great empirical and practical value.

In this study, the technical and quality efficiency scores of the fig processing businesses in Aydın Province and the factors affecting these scores were tried to be determined by Data Envelopment Analysis “a non-parametric method”, and a truncated-regression model with 1000 replications. As a result of the analyses made using the data obtained by the survey method, it has been determined that almost all of the enterprises operate under the assumption of varying returns to scale, and the average of technical efficiency scores is 98% and the average of quality efficiency scores is 58%. It has been determined that the factors such as “Educational Status”, “Industry Experience” and “Processing Figs with Their Own Product” are effective on the technical efficiency scores. On the other hand, it was concluded that “Industry Experience”, “Contract Manufacturing” and “Quality Control Practices” factors were positively affected on quality efficiency scores. In addition, in the production of dried figs, which can be considered as a niche product, especially in the healthy snacks market, there are important problems in terms of sectoral education and external risks, and in order to solve these problems, there are important duties in expressing the problems and expressing the need for qualified personnel with sectoral training. The necessity of conducting scientific researches on geothermal power and dams was stated as a proposal.

This paper examines the factors affecting the implementation of green buildings for the local construction industry. Questionnaire surveys and structural interviews were conducted to investigate the economical and social factors in the implementation of green buildings. From the survey results, the industry strongly believes that green building implementation is environment-friendly and can improve social values to the consumers. However, material costs, construction and transportation for green materials and green building features are more expensive than those for the conventional buildings. Four major factors affecting the existing limited implementation of green buildings were also discussed. Recommendations to improve the implementation of green buildings were also explored. This study can bring insights locally and around the world on how green buildings can be implemented to achieve environment-friendly, long-term cost saving and being recognized by the society and the consumers to reduce difficulties and burden encountered in the implementation.
