Opis: In 2023, 95.5 million Europeans were aged over 65, falling within the definition of the “elderly population”. According to statistics, this number will rise to 129.8 million by 2050, making Europe the oldest continent in the world. One of the consequences of such growth is a sharp increase in the number of elderly drivers. Although they have more experience, which can positively impact road safety, their performance and health generally decline, limiting some of the physical and mental abilities required for safe vehicle control. The main objective of this research was to shed light on the behavior of elderly drivers by comparing three different drivers’ age groups: young, middle-aged and elderly drivers. Based on analysis of road accidents involving elderly drivers, the road safety situation for elderly drivers in Slovenia was highlighted, a questionnaire was developed to understand how elderly drivers perceive traffic, and an experiment was conducted where 30 volunteers were tested using a driving simulator and eye-tracking glasses. Objective driving and gaze behavior data were obtained, and very different performance was found among the three age groups, with elderly drivers having poorer reaction times and overlooking many elements compared to younger drivers.

Opis: Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine how employee perceptions of corporate social responsibility (CSR) can enhance creative performance in an organization both directly and indirectly through job satisfaction and organizational citizenship behavior. This will allow organizations to consider the different factors influencing creative performance, and how these factors can be utilized in a beneficial manner for the organization. Methods: The data for this study was collected via a survey among three telecommunication companies. The valid responses amounted to 344 junior employees. The data was then analyzed to test the hypotheses through structural equation modeling (SEM). Results: The findings of this study indicated a direct positive significant relationship between employee CSR perceptions and creative performance. As well as a positive correlation between employee CSR perceptions and extrinsic and intrinsic job satisfaction. Furthermore, supporting the indirect effects of job satisfaction and organizational citizenship behavior. Moreover, a positive correlation between job satisfaction and organizational citizenship behavior was found. Finally, organizational citizenship behavior and creative performance showcased a positive correlation as well. Conclusion: Organizations should consider the impact of employee CSR perceptions on creative performance, indirectly through extrinsic and intrinsic job satisfaction and organizational citizenship behavior to achieve higher levels of creative performance within their organizations.

Opis: Despite their potential for promoting environmental sustainability, understanding consumer adoption of green products is limited since such behavior is complex, as it may differ from typical purchasing motives and cultural values. Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) was used in this study to address the main research problem of how PBC attitudes, subjective norms, environmental (un)concern, and environmental knowledge, influence consumers’ green product purchase intention. It also explores how cultural values moderate these relationships, specifically man-nature orientation and LTO. This study proposes a structural model with multigroup analysis to address the moderating impacts on a sample of 216 respondents participating in an online survey. Results show that attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and environmental knowledge positively influence consumers’ green product purchase intention. The group analysis results imply that the dominant group’s environmental concern negatively impacts purchase intention, while this relationship is not significant in the subordinate group. Also, the influence of subjective norms on purchase intention is significantly stronger in the dominant group. The long-term orientation also moderates the relationship between attitude toward green products and purchase intention. The insights from this research extend the literature in TPB and provide practical implications to marketing managers concerning developing marketing communication strategies, perceived value proposals, and the reputation of green products.

Opis: Background/Purpose: Empirical evidence suggests that a leader’s political skills may act as a moderator that might decrease the effect of prototypicality’s impact on trust and on leadership effectiveness. The study investigated leading political skills as second-level regulatory variables in connection to leader effectiveness and trust with the purpose of testing a cross-level moderated mediation model within a traditionally collectivist culture like Turkey in efforts to contextualize and expand understanding of leadership prototype perception. Methods: A total of 442 service sector employees and 28 executive managers were interviewed. Two surveys in two separate time periods were conducted. Multilevel path analysis was used to evaluate the hypotheses. Results: The findings suggest that there is a strong and significant impact of leader prototypicality on leadership effectiveness and a direct impact on trust. Results indicate that leaders who are trusted by their subordinates are perceived as more effective in their leadership roles. Lower levels of trust from subordinates are negatively associated with leader effectiveness. Conclusion: If leaders cannot provide their followers a contextualized sense of empowerment and development, they are perceived to not provide high levels of emotional trust. Therefore, there is greater need for multilevel contextualized studies taking account of collective, two-sided, embedded experiences within groups.

Opis: Clay is a widely used material with unique properties that vary depending on water content and applied pressure. In this study, the electromechanical behavior of clay samples from Afyonkarahisar, Turkey, is investigated by examining the relationship between electrical resistivity, water content, and mechanical loading under uniaxial pressure. The samples with a water content of 10%, 20%, and 30% were tested using a uniaxial loading machine in accordance with ASTM D 2216 and the Turkish standard TS 1900-1. The analysis included measurements of stress, deformation, and electrical conductivity of the soil. A comparative assessment of samples with varying water content revealed that at low moisture levels (10%), the specific electrical resistivity initially decreases due to soil compaction and reduced porosity. However, as stress increases further, resistivity rises significantly as microcracks begin to develop, disrupting conductive pathways. In contrast, at higher water contents (20% and 30%), resistivity consistently decreases with increasing stress, while conductivity increases markedly. This indicates that at elevated saturation levels, the presence of water facilitates charge carrier mobility through ionic conduction, resulting in lower resistivity and higher conductivity. Comparisons with previous studies on clays such as bentonite and kaolinite reveal similar qualitative trends, although differences in the rate of resistivity change suggest a distinct mineralogical influence in Afyonkarahisar clay. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of the geotechnical behavior of this regional clay and supports more accurate performance predictions in engineering and construction applications.
