Master Thesis The relationship between work related burnout, vigor and continuance commitment: The moderating effect of organizational spiritual value(Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2016) Yeniaras, Volkan; Yeniaras, VolkanThe concept of burnout in modern workplaces has been acknowledged in management literature as an important area of research, as burnout is argued to be a type of threat in today's workplace environments that employees are exposed due to the high work demands. The objective of this study is to explore the moderating effect of perceived organizational spiritual values on work related burnout and vigor and the mediating effect of vigor on work related burnout and continuance commitment in the Turkish context. The Job Demands Resources (JD-R) Model (Bakker and Demerouti 2007; Demerouti et al. 2001) was applied as the main theory while researching the related topics. This study employed a quantitative research method to collect data for the measurement of the hypotheses and their relationships. A survey was conducted in order to test the research hypotheses and the proposed conceptual model. Data for this research were collected by means of questionnaires administered to 154 service employees in Turkey, by using the random sampling method. The result of this dissertation provided that the employee's perception about their organizational spiritual values has a significantly moderating effect on the relationship between work related burnout and vigor. Furthermore, the level of perceived organizational spiritual values also influences the mediating effect of vigor on continuance commitment conditionally.Article Citation Count: 6Uncovering the relationship between materialism, status consumption and impulsive buying: Newfound status of islamists in Turkey(Universitatea Babes-Bolyai, Catedra de Filosofie Sistematica, 2016) Yeniaras, VolkanIslam is often associated with anti-consumerism. This study, suggests that a new elite with explicitly Islamist dispositions is being constructed in Turkey and aims to provide evidence that these elites build their identity through consumption that reflects its newfound status which leads to impulsive buying. This paper investigates the relationship of materialism to impulsive buying and the mediating role of status consumption on this association. To analyse whether the new elites differ from the general public in their consumption preferences, two sets of data were collected from a judgmental sample of 267 individuals with explicit Islamist dispositions and a stratified random sample of 413. The results provide empirical evidence to suggest that motivated by materialistic values, the explicitly Islamist individuals with high status consumption tendencies are likely to buy products/services impulsively. © SACRI.Article Citation Count: 26Redefining confidence for consumer behavior research(Wiley-Liss Inc., 2014) Yeniaras, Volkan; Yeniaras, Volkan; Oney, Emrah; Bahia, Tajinder KaurAlthough quintessential to market exchange and trade, consumer confidence evokes little interest from marketing scholars, and largely persists as an untapped dimension in consumer behavior research. Nevertheless, the dearth of confidence research provides a most useful foundation for investigating how it is both relevant and informative to the study of consumer decision making and behavior. Following a comprehensive review of the theoretical foundations of confidence, an integrated conceptualization is mapped out, and examples of consumer behavior research areas deemed to benefit from a more honed study of confidence are highlighted.Article Citation Count: 15Unpacking the Relationship Between Materialism Status Consumption and Attitude to Debt the Role of Islamic Religiosity(Emerald Group Publishing Limited, 2016) Yeniaras, VolkanPurpose - The purpose of the study is to investigate how religiosity affects these relationships inTurkey where consumption is de-stigmatized among a new economic elite with strong ties to Islamism. The literature commonly associates religion and ideology with anti-capitalism and anti-consumption. Although consumer researchers have studied both topics examination of whether materialistic values translate into status consumption and whether religiosity has an effect on the relationship between status consumption and consumer attitude to debt remains scant. Design/methodology/approach - This paper investigates the relationship of materialism to status consumption and the mediating role of Islamic religiosity on the relationship between status consumption and attitude to debt. Structural equations modeling was used on a judgmental sample of 267. Findings - The results showed that the materialistic values positively affect status consumption for the Islamists. This paper concludes that Islamic religiosity not only does not reject consumption but also augments the relationship between status consumption and consumer attitude to debt. Originality/value - The findings have shown that previous studies that identify Islam as a threat to consumerism have overseen the class struggles and the role of status consumption. This paper successfully provided empirical evidence that the religiosity not only does not reject consuming but intensifies the relationship between status consumption and attitude to debt for those with Islamist dispositions.Article Citation Count: 79The role of climate: implications for service employee engagement and customer service performance(Springer, 2017) Mengüç, Bülent; Yeniaras, Volkan; Yeniaras, Volkan; Katsikeas, Constantine S.This research attempts to challenge the resource-engagement and engagement-performance linkage of the job demands-resources model by testing these links under the moderating role of two climates: performance-focused and service failure recovery. Two studies test a model on the boundary conditions of the linkages across four service industries. The results suggest that whether a resource (i.e. self-efficacy and job autonomy) positively or negatively affects engagement depends on whether (1) a climate is appraised as a challenge or hindrance demand and (2) a climate is deemed a complementary or compensatory resource. Using multi-respondent data from customer service employees and their supervisors in the health care industry Study 1 conceptualizes climate as organizational climate and finds that performance-focused climate strengthens (weakens) the positive effect of self-efficacy (job autonomy) on engagement while service failure recovery climate weakens the positive impact of self-efficacy on engagement. Study 2 generalizes the findings from Study 1 and provides broad support by testing the model using psychological climate in the financial services tourism and hospitality and retailing industries. This study closes with a configuration approach to climate research by discussing when multiple climates can co-exist under different types of resources.Master Thesis The relationship between muslim religiosity price value consciousness impulsive buying tendency and post purchase regret: a moderation analysis(Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2014) Yeniaras, Volkan; Yeniaras, VolkanReligion has been considered an inseparable part of culture. There is a considerable amount of research examining the relationship between religious affiliation and consumer behavior. Although past studies have confirmed that the religiosity and religious affiliation has an influence on consumers' consumption behavior, scholars has focused on some specific aspects of consumer behavior such as shopping orientation, media usage or purchasing behavior. To contribute new dimensions in the consumer behavior literature, this study's main aim is to understand how price and value consciousness effects: (1) impulsive buying tendency and (2) post-purchase regret regarding the transaction given Muslim religious affiliations via the use of moderation analyses. For the research, it is important to analyze participants who have high religious affiliations to test independent variables and to use members of religious Muslim society's members to make this research more reliable in the context of participants and their high religious affiliations. To test the hypotheses of this study, structural equation modeling was used to analyze data obtained from questionnaires, which were collected from a judgmental sample of 235. Results demonstrated that religiosity has a statistically significant moderating effect on impulsive buying tendency and post-purchase regret.Article Citation Count: 4Uncovering the Relationship Between Materialism Status Consumption and Impulsive Buying: Newfound Status of Islamists in Turke(Univ Babes-Bolyai, 2016) Yeniaras, VolkanIslam is often associated with anti-consumerism.

There is a considerable amount of research examining the relationship between religious affiliation and consumer behavior. Although past studies have confirmed that the religiosity and religious affiliation has an influence on consumers' consumption patterns scholars have focused on some specific aspects of consumer behavior such as shopping orientation media usage or purchasing behavior. To contribute new dimensions into the consumer behavior literature this study makes an attempt to examine how price and value consciousness effects: (1) impulsive buying tendency and (2) post-purchase regret regarding the transaction given Muslim religiosity via the use of moderation analyses in the specifics of a well-known religious congregation. To test the hypotheses the structural equation modeling was used to analyze data obtained from a judgmental sample of 235. Results demonstrated that religiosity has a statistically significant moderating effect on impulsive buying tendency and post-purchase regret.Article Citation Count: 5Re-Considering The Linkage Between The Antecedents and Consequences of Happiness(Elsevier Science Bv, 2016) Yeniaras, Volkan; Akkemik, Küçük Ali; Yücel, ErayA growing number of studies examine the antecedents of happiness but only a handful of them appear to undertake an analysis of its consequences. Employing a unique cross-sectional data set of 413 adults we examine the relationship of the antecedents of happiness on its outcomes via mediation analysis. We show that the web of relations in this domain is more complicated than it is commonly understood. We provide empirical evidence that income enhances individuals' life satisfaction. We also find a non-linearity in the relation of age to frugality and to attitude towards debt. Whereas a positive relationship exists between employment and frugality income negatively affects frugality. We find strong evidence to suggest that life satisfaction reverses the relationships of employment and income to frugality. Additionally we obtained empirical evidence to suggest that employment income and sex positively affect attitude towards debt. Furthermore we provide empirical evidence that the relationships of age and. income to attitude towards debt are complementarily mediated by frugality while frugality competitively mediates the relationship of employment to attitude towards debt. Finally the results reveal that there exists an indirect-only effect of life satisfaction to attitudes towards debt through frugality. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
