We are faced with an epidemic that has never spread to such a large area in the world. After the Covid-19 pandemic, which affected the whole world and all sectors, people's struggle for life increased, and the psychological pressures of the pandemic deeply affected everyone. People worked from their homes during the first pandemic period, but when they switched to face-to-face work, the risk factor of contracting the disease emerged. In this context, the aim of our research is to examine the personal and institutional effects of stress, burnout syndrome due to stress, and as a result of this, their professional commitment when it comes to the situation of being in the same environment with covid-19 positive or covid-19 contacts. The research was conducted using the questionnaire technique, one of the quantitative research methods. 56 female and 70 male employees participated in the study and it was determined that there was no deficiency in the data obtained from these people and all of them were used. As a result of the studies, it has been determined that the effect of the Covid-19 process on the employees is a significant difference in terms of stress and burnout syndrome, but there is no significant difference in terms of professional commitment. With the development of technology and the deterioration of nature, it is thought that measures will be taken to prevent the stress and burnout levels of aviation group employees from  increasing by considering these and similar studies in the next epidemics or large-scale crisis situations. ​Extended English summary is in the end of Full Text PDF (TURKISH) file. Özet Dünya üzerinde hiç bu kadar büyük alana yayılmamış olan bir salgınla karşı karşıya kalmış bulunmaktayız. Tüm dünyanın ve tüm sektörlerin etkilendiği Covid-19 pandemisi sonrası insanların hayat mücadelesi daha da artmış, pandeminin psikolojik baskıları herkesi derinden etkilemiştir. İnsanlar ilk pandemi döneminde evlerinden çalışmış ancak sonra yüz yüze çalışmaya geçildiğinde hastalığa yakalanma riski faktörü ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu bağlamda araştırmamızın amacı havacılık grubu çalışanlarının, covid-19 pozitif ya da covid-19 temaslı olan kişilerle aynı ortamda bulunma durumu söz konusu olduğunda stres, strese bağlı olarak tükenmişlik sendromu ve bunların sonucunda mesleki bağlılıkları ile ilgili kişisel ve kurumsal etkilerini inceleyerek çalışma yapılmasıdır. Araştırma nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden anket tekniği kullanılarak yapılmıştır. Araştırmaya 56 kadın ve 70 erkek çalışan katılmış olup bu kişilerden elde edilen verilerde eksiklik olmadığı saptanmış ve tamamı kullanılmıştır. Yapılan çalışmalar sonucunda Covid-19 sürecinin çalışanlara etkisinin stres ve tükenmişlik sendromu açısından bakıldığında anlamlı bir farklılık olduğu, mesleki bağlılık anlamda bakıldığında anlamlı bir farklılık olmadığı saptanmıştır. Teknolojinin gelişmesiyle ve doğanın bozulmasıyla beraber gelebilecek olan sonraki salgınlarda ya da büyük çaplı kriz durumlarında bu ve benzeri çalışmalar göz önüne alınarak, havacılık grubu çalışanlarının stres ve tükenmişlik düzeylerinin artmaması için önlemler alına bilineceği düşünülmektedir.

AbstractThe computer gaming addiction is one of the newer concepts that young generations face and can be defined as the excessive and problematic use of computer games leading to social and/or emotional problems. The purpose of this study is to analyse through variables the computer gaming addiction levels of secondary school students. The research was conducted with survey and causal-comparative quantitative research methods. Furthermore, the quantitative data was obtained by interpreting the data obtained through open-ended questions. Findings reveal a significant difference between computer gaming addiction and variables of gender, daily gaming times and whether or not students play games with people they do not know. However, findings did not show any significant difference between computer gaming addiction and variables of grade or purposes of game playing. According to the findings from qualitative data analysis, students mostly prefer to play skill-based games, while they would want to design action games.Keywords: Computer gaming, daily gaming times, game addiction, purposes of game playing, secondary school students.

The aim of this research is to determine teachers’ attitude levels towards assessment and evaluation who teach Turkish as a foreign language and to examine them in terms of various variables. Survey method, one of the quantitative research methods, was used in the research. Teachers (n=233) who teach Turkish in various institutions participated in the research. “Personal Information Form” prepared by researchers and “Assessment and Evaluation Attitude Scale for Teachers” developed by Tezci (2019) were used as data collection tools in the research. As a result of the research, it was determined that on average the Turkish teachers’ attitude scores towards assessment and evaluation is at a “high” level with 4.11. In addition, a significant difference was found between the Turkish teachers’ attitudes towards assessment and evaluation and the variables such as professional experience, receiving training for assessment and evaluation in language teaching, analising of prepared exams in terms of assessment and evaluation and evaluation and perceiving themselves as literate in assessment and evaluation. No significant difference was found between the attitudes of those who teach Turkish towards assessment in terms of the faculty they graduated from, the institutions where they were employed, regular exam preparation status, the hardest skill to assess, and the hardest skill to evaluate. Although attitudes of teachers towards assessment and evaluation are found at a “high” level in the research, taking into consideration the fact that there are many deficiencies in terms of assessment and evaluation in teaching Turkish as a foreign language and 46% of the teachers in this study consider themselves moderately literate in terms of assessment and evaluation, suggestions were made that it is necessary to work on what other factors affect teachers’ assessment and evaluation literacy

The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the Petanque throwing technique in UKM UPGRIS. The method used in this research uses quantitative research methods with a comparative approach and is assisted by the Kinovea software application version 0.9.3 which is used to measure. Kinovea is one of the software used to analyze motion, using this application we can play the captured video for analysis. The results of this study concluded that based on the analysis of several samples, the athlete's height and arm length affected the size of the backswing and release angles. There are differences in backswing and release angles based on the hypothesis test for the distance of 6 backswing 68-113, an average of 95.33 and 52-96 releases, an average of 66.83, a distance of 7 backswing 67-113, an average of 103.18 and a 52-89 release, average 75.27 average, 8 backswing distance 78-119, 106.27 average and 58-90 release, 77.90 average, and 9 backswing distance 78-140, average 111.45 and 60-91 release, average 79.81. There is no significant difference in the type of shooting, because a significant value <0.05, H0 is accepted. The conclusion of this study is that the taller the athlete's body and arm length, the smaller the backswing and release angle used and vice versa. There are differences in backswing and release angles at shooting distances of 6 meters, 7 meters, 8 meters and 9 meters. There is no difference in backswing and release angles to the accuracy of shooting carreau, reussi, and touche types.

The first positive case of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Indonesia was announced in March 2020. Since then, the positive cases have continued to increase. This condition prompted the government to adopt the Large-Scale Social Restriction (LSSR)/Pembatasan Sosial Berskala Besar (PSBB). Some areas included in endemic regions for dengue face two problems: overcoming COVID-19 and Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) simultaneously. Five economic growth center cities/districts in East Java Province (Gresik, Bangkalan, Surabaya, Sidoarjo, and Lamongan) were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and dengue fever. This was a quantitative research with a comparative design study using the Wilcoxon test to compare the cases of DHF pre-COVID-19 and during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Wilcoxon test result showed no significant difference with a p-value of 0.319 (p-value>0.05). It can be concluded that DHF still becomes a problem in five cities/districts in East Java Province even though LSRR was applied. Extra attention is needed to overcome DHF. One of the efforts to prevent and control DHF during the COVID-19 pandemic is to build community independence through the one house one health cadres’ movement.
