Akademik çalışma bulguları velilerle etkili işbirliği noktasında ciddi eksiklikler olduğunu göstermektedir.

Compression therapy is an important method for treating venous diseases such as venous edema and venous hypertension. Regular compression therapy's main objective is to diminish leg swelling by controlling blood flow and avoiding the recurrence of reversible blood flow. Compression socks are often recommended as therapeutic garments. In this study, a seamed compression sock was developed using fabric with an interlock knit structure. Three other sock samples were produced by using circular knitting MERZ CC4 model machine for comparison. The results demonstrate that the developed sock meets all the requirements of compression class I. Statistical analysis reveals that fabric parameters, particularly fabric weight, effectively explain compression pressure intensity according to the values of coefficient of determination, coefficient of correlation (r), and means sum of square errors (MSE). In this work, Laplace's Law and a few preexisting mathematical models were used to calculate the compression pressure of both standard compression socks and socks with seams, with results that were essentially similar. The points of data are tightly clustered around line of regression, showing that there is little variation in the compression pressure for socks with seams.

Photo-transferred thermoluminescence (PTTL) is defined as the transfer of electrons from deep traps into shallow traps via optical stimulation. The importance of PTTL is that it allows for a second measurement of dose assessments for accuracy in cases such as an erroneous dose evaluation. In this study, the PTTL signal of TLD-100 was investigated in detail for a wide dose range from mGy to Gy. The investigation of PTTL signals in the order of Gy is the main innovation of this study. Based on the results of the low dose measurement (mGy), the PTTL dose-response curve has a significant sublinear characteristic in the order of mGy for the total area condition. Additionally, PTTL signals could not be distinguished from the background signal up to 5mGy. Therefore, the PTTL method can be used by taking into account the sublinear function obtained after 5mGy for the total area. On the other hand, it can be applied to TLD-100 between 0.5mGy and 50mGy using ROI. Based on the high dose measurement results (Gy), the PTTL method can be applied up to 10Gy regardless of the total area and ROI. Therefore, the dose reassessment can be performed with PTTL signal in high dose measurements (Gy) such as in the radiotherapy field. Furthermore, in future studies, heating the dosimeters during UV exposure, predose effect, or subjecting the dosimeters to fast cooling following the annealing process may provide important outputs to obtaining higher PTTL intensity, thus, it may allow measuring lower radiation doses.

Retrospektif (geriye dönük) dozimetri, doz ölçümünün planlanmadığı durumlarda doz hesabı için kaza dozimetresinin önemli araçlarından biridir. Kaza dozimetrisi, radyasyon kazası sonucu dışarıdan/ içten maruz kalan insanların radyasyon dozunun çeşitli dozimetri yöntemleri ile değerlendirilmesidir. Kaza bölgesindeki herhangi bir obje doğal dozimetre olarak değerlendirilebilmektedir. Şimdiye kadar seramik ya da porselen ürünleri, yapı malzemeleri, elektronik bileşenler (IC parçaları, sim kart, transistörler), saat camı ve telefon ekranı gibi birçok malzeme bu amaçla incelenmiştir. Bu çalışmada çevrede yaygın şekilde bulunan çeşitli porselen ve kil bazlı malzemelerin (şekerlik, kül tablası, sigorta porseleni, cila maddesi içerikli ve içeriksiz yapay diş porseleni, seramik tırnak törpüsü, namaz mühürü ve kumbara) retrospektif dozimetri amaçlı kullanımı için numune hazırlanma sürecinin TL sinyalinin üzerinde etkisi, radyasyon kazasından önce malzemenin maruz kalmış olduğu sıcaklığın (örneğin yangın) OSL sinyali üzerinde etkisi, termal sönümlenme, farklı uyarma modlarında OSL lüminesans sinyalinin değişimi gibi özellikleri de araştırılmıştır. Ayrıca bir radyasyon kazası senaryosu gerçekleştirilerek araştırılan materyaller ile TL ve OSL tekniğini kullanılarak kaza dozu hesaplanmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre incelenen bütün numunelerin radyasyon kazası durumunda retrospektif doz hesaplaması için birer dozimetrik malzeme olarak kullanılabilirliği ortaya çıkmaktadır. Kaza senaryosu sonucunda numunelerden TL yöntemi ile hesaplanan kaza doz değerlerini kaza mahallinde konulmuş TLD100’ler ile elde edilen değerlerle kıyasladığımız zaman kumbara ve yapay diş porseleni numunelerinden

Aim:Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is a method that can be applied for nutritional purposes in patients who cannot be fed orally for various reasons but whose gastrointestinal system functions are normal. In this study, we aimed to determine the etiological causes and long-term outcomes (efficacy, safety, lifespan) of PEG in patients over 65 years of age.Methods:The data of patients aged 65 years or older who had PEG in our unit between 2015 and 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. The demographic information of the patients, the units they are being followed in, the underlying diseases, additional diseases, if any, complications-related to the procedure and the average life span were evaluated.Results:During this period, 140 patients had been PEG inserted. 51% of patients were male and the average age was 73.7±9.2 years, and the average age of women was 76±7.2 years. The most frequent cause of PEG insertion is a neurological disease. PEG insertion was the most common in cerebrovascular events, with a rate of 39%. PEG was implanted in 30% for Alzheimer’s disease, and 14% for malignant reasons. 28% of the patients lived less than a month. In total, 76% of patients died. The average life expectancy of patients who died after PEG was 221.3±330.7 days.Conclusion:PEG is the gold standard in patients with normal gastrointestinal system functions in long-term enteral nutrition. However, in patients with a life expectancy of less than 1 month, the decision to place PEG or not should be made carefully.

Aim:Swallowing foreign bodies is a common clinical problem. Especially sharp and pointed objects can cause life-threatening complications such as obstruction, gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding or intestinal perforation. In this article, we aimed to report our experience and results of patients who underwent endoscopy in our clinic due to foreign body ingestion.Methods:Records of adult patients, who underwent endoscopy with a pre-diagnosis of foreign body in the GI tract in Mersin University Medical Faculty Department of Gastroenterology between 2013 and 2018, were retrospectively evaluated using the hospital data recording system. Demographic characteristics, anamnesis information, radiographs and endoscopy findings were evaluated.Results:A total of 52 patients were included in the study. Thirty-four (65.3%) patients with the mean age of 45.3±17.81 years were male and eight (34.6%) with the mean age of 47.7±4.18 years were female. Nineteen (36.5%) of the detected foreign bodies were bony meat and fish bones, 12 (23.0%) were meat without bone and solid food. Fishbone, chicken bone and dental prostheses were the most common foreign bodies, especially in the elderly. Thirty-four point six of the foreign bodies were detected in the esophagus and 72% in the upper esophagus. Nineteen point two percent in the stomach and 3.8% of them were in the duodenum and were removed by endoscopy. Upper GI endoscopy was normal in 42.3% of patients who were followed by X-ray.Conclusion:In our series, the most common ingested foreign bodies were fish bones, bony and boneless meat, bezoar, prosthetic teeth, toothpicks and nails. Foreign bodies were found most frequently in the upper part of the esophagus. None of them required surgical treatment; either passed spontaneously or endoscopic removal was performed. There was no mortality or morbidity in any of our patients.

This study was carried out to detect the content of amino acid in female and male specimens of blue swimming crab (Portunus segnis) obtained from (including 12 male crab and also 12 female crab) North Eastern Mediterranean Sea, Turkey. The protein was identified as 17.63% and 18.13% for female and male crab respevtively. Totally 9 essential amino acids were recorded in the present study. Lysine and leucine constituted the highest essential amino acid (EAA) concentrations in P. segnis. This species was found to be in good score in terms of the level of EAA and the EAA/Non-EAA ratios when compared with other economical crab species.

Objective: Effects of various conditions on coronary artery dimensions is an important research topic, and data regarding effect of aortic valvular diseases are limited. Aim of the present study was to investigate effects of aortic regurgitation (AR) and aortic stenosis (AS) on coronary artery dimensions. Methods: Coronary dimensions of 95 patients (35 with isolated AR, 30 with isolated AS, and 30 without any valvular disease) were calculated. Patients with severe coronary artery disease and concurrent moderate to severe additional valvular disease were excluded. Mean diameter of major coronary arteries was determined using quantitative coronary angiography. Results: The 3 study groups were similar in terms of baseline characteristics. Diameter of left main coronary artery was found to be greater in AR group than AS group (2.66+-0.57 mm/m2 vs 2.36+-0.49 mm/m2; p=0.015). Mean diameter of left anterior descending and left circumflex arteries were found to be similar in AR and AS groups, and greater than control group. Mean diameter of right coronary artery was found to be greater in AR group compared with controls; however, no significant difference was found in same measurement between AS group and controls. Conclusion: Present study findings indicate that coronary dimensions in AR group tend to be greater than AS group. Further studies investigating factors that affect coronary dimensions would be beneficial in order to demonstrate mechanisms and differences in AR and AS groups.

Ege Bölgesi’nin en uzun akarsuyu olan Büyük Menderes Irmağı, Dinar-Sandıklı arasındaki dağlık arazide doğar. Burada bulunan kaynak kollarından biri Dinar’ın hemen kuzeydoğusundaki kireç taşı dikliklerinde yer alan karstik kökenli Antik Çağ’ın ünlü Marsyas kaynağından doğan koldur. Marsyas kaynağı çoğu zaman Büyük Menderes’in başlangıcı sayılır. Daha uzun olan ikinci kol ise Sandıklı Ovası’nı çeviren yüksek dağlardan inen derelerin birleşmesinden oluşur. Çivril Ovası’na kavuşan bu ikinci kol Büyük Menderes adını alır. Bir süre aynı ovanın ekseni doğrultusunda aktıktan sonra Çal’da keskin bir dirsek yaparak batıya döner ve üçüncü bir kaynak olan Banaz Çayı ile birleşir. Günümüzde bu birleşme Banaz Çayı olarak adlandırılmaktadır. Büyük Menderes daha güneyde Sarayköy yakınlarında kendi adını taşıyan çöküntü ovasına girer. Honaz Dağı eteklerini izleyerek gelen Aksu Çayı’nı da aldıktan sonra genellikle ovanın güney kenarına yakın ve yaklaşık 200 km. uzunluğunda bir çığır izler. Dandalas Çayı’na Morsynos ek olarak Menteşe yöresi dağlarından gelen Akçay Harpasos ve Çine Çayları Marsyas da sularını Büyük Menderes Irmağı’na boşaltır. Bu akarsular dışında havzada sularını Büyük Menderes Irmağı’na boşaltan 50’den fazla akarsu, dere ve çay vardır(1).

Ortadoğu, siyasal bilimciler açısından olduğu kadar tarih ve coğrafya araştırmacıları için de üzerinde çalışılması oldukça zor coğrafi bölgelerdendir. Ortadoğu'nun sınırları üzerinde dahi bir fikir birliği yoktur. Eski SSCB Bilimler Akademisi Arkeoloji Enstitüsü üyelerinden Pavel Dolukhanov'un bu eserinde Ortadoğu, Anadolu dahil olmak üzere Doğu Akdeniz kıyıları, Arabistan Yarımadası, Mezopotamya, Kafkasya, İran ve Eski SSCB'nin güney kesimleri kabul edilmiştir. Giriş kısmında yazar akademik yaşamından alıntılar yaptıktan sonra ilk uygarlıkların neden Ortadoğu'da çıktığına yönelik sorusuna cevap aramaktadır. Childe tarafından 1920 ve 1930'larda ileri sürülen "Doğunun Üstünlüğü" (Ex Oriente Lux) düşüncesinin artık değişmeye başladığını, Avrupa'da çok sayıda yeniliğin doğudan gelmeyip Avrupa'da keşfedildiğini belirtmektedir.

Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient and path analyses, which is one of the structural equation model technics, were used for data analyses. Correlation analysis results showed that there was positively correlation between mindfulness, interpersonal mindfulness in marriage, emotional intelligence, marital adjustment and subjective well-being. Path analysis result showed that emotional intelligence fully mediated the relationship between mindfulness and subjective well-being. Besides, emotional intelligence and marital adjustment partially mediated the relationship between mindfulness in marriage and subjective well-being and model explained 51.00% of total variance of subjective well-being. The results of the research were discussed in the light of literature and suggestions were presented.

In this study, the relationships between high school teachers' perceptions of spiritual leadership, organizational culture, organizational silences and academic success of the school were tested. The population of the research, which is designed with causal model, consists of a total of 2,791 teachers working in public high schools in a province in Central Anatolia, whereas the sample consisted of 457 teachers working in 24 high schools determined by the proportional cluster-sampling method. The primary data of the research were obtained using the Spiritual Leadership Scale, School Culture Inventory and Organizational Silence Scale, whereas the secondary data were obtained using the average scores of the school from the Higher Education Entrance Examination (YGS) and the Undergraduate Placement Examination (LYS). The data were tested using correlation analysis, multiple regression analysis and structural equation model. The findings of the research showed that teachers' perceptions about the spiritual leadership behaviors of the principals affected their organizational culture perception positively; the perception of the organizational culture affected the school's YGS average score positively and LYS average score negatively.

To meet the demands of knowledge economy, educational systems worldwide have developed many accountability mechanisms to hold the schools responsible for a standardized teaching and account-giving for the results. Henceforth, this research seeks to portray the accountability pressures on schools and school responses, and their variations between the groups of individual and institutional variables in Turkish context. A survey research design investigated the data obtained by the 'Accountability Pressures Scale' and 'Accountability Responses Scale' from the stratified sample of K-12 schools, in Kütahya, Turkey. It revealed that teachers feel very less pressure from school shareholders, school social environment and upper bureaucracy, and they feel responsible only to the upper bureaucracy and supervisors. The level of accountability relations variates between the subgroups of teacher characteristics such as school level, gender, position, union membership and education level of teachers have an impact on.

Objective: Brucellosis is an important zoonotic infection that causes multi-organ involvement, and the effectiveness of culture and serological tests used in the diagnosis of the disease is limited. In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) in the diagnosis of brucellosis. Material and Method: Sixty patients with positive Rose-Bengal Agglutination test and clinically suspected brucellosis and 60 control samples without these features were included in the study. The DNA of Brucella spp. was investigated in the samples by real-time PCR method. In the positive samples, the species identification was made, and virulance genes including omp19, wbkA, manA, mviN, urea and perA were studied with PCR. Results: Brucella spp. DNA was found to be positive in 19 of 32 patients in the patient group who were diagnosed with acute disease or relapse by clinical evaluation and serological tests, and no positive result was obtained in any of the control samples. Accordingly, the sensitivity and specificity of PCR were calculated as 59.3% and 100%, respectively. It was determined that Brucella melitensis was the infecting agent in all positive patients and carried all the virulence genes studied. Conclusion: Developing molecular methods and taking samples from the patient during the period of bacteremia may increase the effectiveness of PCR in the diagnosis of brucellosis. The identification of the pathogen as B. melitensis in all positive patients indicated that the transmission brucellosis to humans in our region was mainly from sheeps and goats, and appropriate control measures should be taken accordingly.

Recently, complex-valued least mean kurtosis (CLMK) algorithms have become highly popular in the literature due to the advantages they offer. This study provides a detailed performance analysis of OC-CLMK, OC-ACLMK, ROCCLMK, and ROC-ACLMK algorithms previously proposed by Çolak Güvenç and Mengüç, focusing on step size, forgetting factor, and filter order. Firstly, the performance analysis in this study is made by comparing parameter ranges with different values and three different censoring ratios on two different scenarios of the system identification problem used in the study in which the algorithms were proposed. Then, the dependencies of the proposed online censoring-based CLMK algorithms to these crucial parameters is presented in terms of steadystate mean square error (SS-MSE). Thus, a guiding study is presented to the end-users of online censoring-based CLMK algorithms regarding the parameter limits within which they should be worked. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this study is to gather evidence that the existing emotional and multiple intelligence scales measure self-assessment and so self-esteem rather than intelligence, based on the inappropriateness of item-response structures of these scales. For this purpose, relationships among the emotional intelligence, the multiple intelligence, and the self-esteem scales and factor structures of the scales were investigated. Data were collected from 246 individuals over 18 years of age in using the snowball sampling method, through face-to-face communication or reaching out to the researchers' acquaintances via the internet due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The results of Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) revealed that the emotional intelligence, the multiple intelligence, and the self-esteem scales indicated one dominant factor, although these scales were presented as more than one factor in literature. The single-factor structure in double, triple, and all scale combinations was investigated through Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). So, it was found that the single factor structure indicates a good or acceptable fit for all the combinations. In addition, with the help of One-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), it was revealed that scores obtained from the emotional or the multiple scales increase as self-liking level increases. Based on these findings, it was concluded that the emotional and the multiple intelligence scales mainly measure "self-liking" (self-esteem) levels due to item-response styles of the scales as self-evaluation.

This study was carried out between 2019 and 2021 to determine chestnut rootstock candidates in Efeler District of Aydın Province. Approximately 40 km² chestnut area was observed in this study. In the research area, 11 high-yielding genotypes which were observed to be unaffected by diseases and pests were identified. The seeds of the genotypes were stratificated, then the seeds that started to germinate were first planted in pots, and the resulting young plants were transferred to the trial garden. At the end of the vegetation period, characteristics related to plant development were examined in the seedlings obtained from the genotypes. The data obtained were evaluated using variance analysis and weighted rating methods, and the scores received by the genotypes were determined. As a result of the research, genotypes coded EK 3, EK 5 and EK 6 had the highest scores and were selected as rootstock candidates. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of the research is to investigate the place of tribal structure in the perception of the people living there in Van province and its effect on political preferences. Since associations affiliated with tribes have been opened in Van in recent years and their relations with the political institution have intensified as a result of the tribal members who used to reside in the villages now residing in the center of Van, it has become important to conduct a study based on field research in the relevant field. After reading the literature related to the research, the research is sahped through the questions "What is the approach to the tribal structure in Van today and what is its effect on voting preferences?". The research is a qualitative study based on semi-structured interviews and using grounded theory design. The data of the research was collected through interviews with people living in Van province and its districts and political party officials in the center of Van. The data of the research were analyzed in the context of the principles of grounded theory. As a result of the study, it was determined that the tribal structure is a visible phenomenon in Van, but its effect on political preferences is low. Some of the people interviewed for the research said that tribal affiliation is necessary in Van; Some of them stated that there is no need for such a affiliation today. Thus, a situation of coexistence of conflicting statements emerged in the findings obtained during the interviews. Based on this, the concept of dialectics of belonging was reached in the context of Anselm Strauss and Barney Glaser's approaches to grounded theory. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: aim of this study was to investigate the long-term clinical, functional and oncologic outcomes of patients with aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC). It was also aimed to reveal the effect of treatment options on recurrence and complications. Materials and Methods: Patients who underwent surgical treatment and follow-up with the diagnosis of ACS between 2000 and January 2023 were included in the study. Data were collected retrospectively using the hospital database and patient follow- up files. Only patients with a histologically confirmed diagnosis of ABC and a minimum follow-up period of 12 months were included in the study. Data such as age, gender, side, bone location of the tumor, extremity localization, preferred surgical method (curettage+allograft, curettage+allograft, curettage+autograft, curettage+cement and resection), whether internal fixation was applied, follow-up period, presence of recurrence and date of recurrence were recorded. The last follow-up was performed with the MSTS (Musculoskeletal Tumor Society) scoring system in outpatient clinic controls. On the basis of these data, the clinical, radiological, functional and oncological outcomes of the patients, complication rates, presence of recurrence and factors affecting the occurrence of recurrence were retrospectively analyzed. Results: A total of 103 patients, 51 women and 52 men, were included in the study. The mean follow-up period was 30.94±4.43 months. Recurrence was seen in 24.3% (n=25) of the patients. The age of patients with recurrence was significantly higher than those without recurrence (p<0.001). There was a statistically significant correlation between recurrence and internal fixation (p=0.020). The MSTS scores of patients who underwent internal fixation during surgery were significantly higher than those of patients who did not undergo internal fixation (p<0.001). Conclusions: In conclusion, in line with the data obtained in our study, the choice of treatment for aneurysmal bone cysts depends on localization, size, pathological fracture risk, symptoms and surrounding tissues. We believe that more caution should be exercised in the surgical treatment of ACCs with fracture risk, lower extremity localizations, and patients with incomplete skeletal development. Prevention of recurrence and internal fixation in patients with fracture risk increase patient satisfaction and positively affect functional outcomes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

With the development of technology, many transactions in our daily life take place on the internet. The increasing use of the internet has also increased the number of data in this environment. Subjects such as processing and analysis of data have allowed the formation of new fields of science, especially in the world of informatics. In our study, the emotion labels of the data were firstly determined by the Python programming language on the data set containing the Turkish voice recordings, and then the analyzes were carried out with the five most used machine learning algorithms in the literature studies. Analyses were conducted through both Rapid Miner and the Python programming language. In the study, both CountVectorizer and TF-IDF vectorization methods were used in analyses performed through the Python programming language, and TF-IDF vectorization method was used in analyses performed with Rapid Miner. As a result, Naive Bayes and Support Vector Machine algorithms obtained the best accuracy rate in the Python programming language with 67%. In RapidMiner, the Naïve Bayes machine learning algorithm achieved the best accuracy rate of 60.61%. Our study is also an original study in which emotion detection was done with the BERT model of the data obtained from Turkish voice recordings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The problem of seasonal agricultural child labor is an important issue for our country, as in all countries. Tens of thousands of families migrate seasonally every year to work in agricultural areas in Turkey. Families take their children who need education with them during their migrations, make them work in agriculture, and these children are forced to not have access to education or are partially deprived of it. The aim of this study is to examine the problems experienced by seasonal agricultural worker children regarding their education from the perspective of school administrators and teachers. In this research, the case study model, one of the qualitative research methods, was used. The study group of the research consists of a total of 15 people, 10 teachers and 5 administrators. A semi-structured interview form was used to collect data. After the opinions of administrators and teachers were obtained, content analysis was carried out by dividing them into themes and codes. As a result of the research, it was concluded that the children of seasonal agricultural workers experience education-training problems, absenteeism problems, adaptation problems and psychosocial problems, and that the school attendance of the children of seasonal agricultural workers has a negative impact on their academic success. Based on the results of the research, flexible education models should be developed for children who are seasonal agricultural workers and these models should be suitable for the mobility problems of children. Providing economic support to families and offering scholarships to children can increase educational attainment. It is important to increase families' awareness of the importance of education. Teachers should be trained in accordance with the special needs of seasonal agricultural worker children. Cultural awareness and multicultural education strategies are important.

In this study, AISI-430 and HARDOX 500 steels were welded with Cold Metal Transfer (CMT) welding technique, and the changes in the mechanical properties in the welding and HAZ (Heat Affected Zone) regions were investigated. 100x130x6 mm AISI 430 and HARDOX 500 steels were cut in standard sizes with a band saw and joined by the CMT method using AWS 307 additional wire. The mechanical properties and microstructural changes of the welded areas were investigated by various analyses, microhardness, notch impact, and tensile tests, and the ruptured surfaces of the test specimens after the tensile test were investigated by SEM analysis. Welding was carried out at 140 A, 130 A, and 120 A current. 97.5% Argon and 2.5% CO2 gas were used as shielding gas. It has been determined that there are differences in morphology from the optical images after welding. Coarse grains were formed in the HAZ regions but were limited to the low-temperature input of the CMT welding. According to the EDS analysis results, it has been determined that there are atomic transitions between the regions. In the hardness analysis, there was a slight decrease in hardness in the HAZ regions compared to the base metals. In the tensile test, all 3 samples broke from the AISI 430 main material part. Elongation amounts were measured between 16.81 and 17.90 mm, and tensile strengths were measured between 417 and 441 MPa. As a result of the study, it has been revealed that the mechanical properties of AISI 430 and HARDOX 500 steels combined with CMT Welding have increased significantly in the weld zone and weldability is possible.

The main purpose of the research is to determine the causes and effects of burnout, which is frequently observed among teachers, and what needs to be done to overcome this problem. In this study, a descriptive case study approach, one of the qualitative research methods, was used. The data collected for research purposes were analyzed by content analysis. In the study, a semi-structured interview form was used to collect data. In this research, the study group consists of a total of 12 teachers working at pre-school, primary and secondary education levels in the central Artuklu district of Mardin province. Purposive sampling method was used to determine the participants. In the study, depersonalization, low sense of achievement and emotional exhaustion came to the fore in the findings regarding teachers' burnout perceptions. It has been stated that the excessive course load, administrative pressure and lack of communication between employees are effective in depersonalization. It can be said that the feeling of personal inadequacy, high expectations and unfair competition are effective in the feeling of low success. Stress has been identified as the most important factor in emotional exhaustion. These results emphasize the need to improve teachers' strategies for coping with work stress and their working conditions. For this reason, supporting teachers and improving their working environments can reduce the feeling of burnout and enable teachers to guide students more effectively. This support can be achieved by encouraging teachers' professional development, balancing their workload, and providing psychological support. Additionally, creating positive working environments and a culture of collaboration can increase teachers' motivation, direct them to their students more successfully, and have positive effects on students' success.
