The sample includes individuals from the three countries, exploratory factor analysis and non-parametric tests were used to test the differences. Results suggest that coronavirus has played a strong part in altering households' food consumption and meal habits within these countries. The pandemic has particularly led to greater consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables and spending more time eating meals at home. Portugal appears to be consuming more seafood, bread, and butter whereas China features higher consumption of rice and meat products; Turkey is consuming more meat and eggs. The study closes with a set of recommendations for the society and future research.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 7Gender Inclusion: the Practices of Organizational Development and Human Resource Management(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Chalermchaikit, Vorakarn; Kozak, Metin; Preudhikulpradab, SirichaiThis study explores gender inclusion via practices of organizational development and human resource management from general managers in five-star hotels based on the gap between current practices, expectations, and typical general managers' characteristics. The study states the related theories of organizational culture, corporate policies, perceived organizational support, core competencies, and gender perceptions. A mixed method was applied in three stages. Quantitative research was conducted with 400 executive staff using 25 structured questionnaires via a Likert scale: Needs Assessment. The second stage is qualitative research conducted using five in-depth interview questions with 22 interviews conducted by the general manager. Interview transcripts collected the data, contents analysis inter-coding and triangulation of themes development. The last stage is the development of a model and guidelines, which are conducted by juxtaposing quantitative and qualitative data and expert reviews. The study discusses the implications for the literature and practice.Article Drivers of Employee Dis/Satisfaction: a Comparison of Tourism and Sports Industries(2023) Sevilmiş, Ali; Kozak, Metin; Özdemir, İlknurThis study aims to identify the common and distinct factors affecting the dis/satisfaction of employees in two different industries, namely tourism and sports, and develop a model. The study was carried out using the qualitative method. A total of 118 employees in five-star hotels and sports centers participated in the study. Common factors affecting employee satisfaction were thematized as relationship with co-workers, nature of the job, relationship with superiors, salary, working hours, career opportunities, and job security. The factors affecting the dissatisfaction were thematized as inefficient salary, lack of relationship with superiors, job insecurity, and lack of relationship with co-workers. In the context of satisfaction in tourism, the theme of “Facilities and benefits” differs from sports. In the context of dissatisfaction with sports, the theme of “lack of career opportunities” differs from tourism. Based on the study findings, practical implications are presented for the two industries in an aim to increase the performance and productivity of their businesses. The study conveys its originality by identifying the employee dis/satisfaction factors in the tourism and sports industries.Master Thesis Yaratıcı Endüstri Profesyonellerinin (Pro-Creative) Hukuki ve Finansal Okuryazarlığı(2025) Oğul, Sertaç; Kozak, MetinBu tez, yaratıcı endüstrilerde kariyer yapmayı hedefleyen İletişim Fakültesi öğrencilerinin profesyonelleşme süreçlerinde hukuki ve mali okuryazarlığın rolünü incelemektedir. Üçüncü ve son sınıf öğrencilerine odaklanan çalışma, kültür politikaları, sanat yönetimi ve emek ekonomisi literatürüne dayanarak mevcut araştırmalarda göz ardı edilen bir alana işaret etmektedir: Yaratıcı alanlardaki kariyerlerde gerekli olan pratik düzeydeki hukuki ve mali bilgi eksikliği. Çalışma, beş farklı bölümden 16 lisans öğrencisiyle yapılan yapılandırılmış görüşmelere dayanan nitel bir araştırma yöntemine sahiptir. Görüşmeler, öğrencilerin fikri mülkiyet hakları, sözleşmeler, vergilendirme, kişisel verilerin korunması ve iş hukuku gibi konularda ciddi bilgi eksiklikleri yaşadığını ortaya koymaktadır. Yaratıcı alanlarda eğitim almalarına rağmen bu temel konulara müfredatlarında yeterince yer verilmediği görülmekte ve öğrenciler bu alanlarda uygulamalı ve mesleki odaklı bir eğitime ihtiyaç duyduklarını açıkça ifade etmektedir. 'Profesyonelleşme bilgisi' kavramı çerçevesinde ele alınan bu çalışma, hukuki ve mali okuryazarlığın yalnızca teknik beceriler değil, aynı zamanda yaratıcı profesyonel kimliğin inşasında önemli bileşenler olduğunu savunmaktadır. Bu doğrultuda tez, iletişim eğitimi, kültürel ekonomi ve yaratıcı endüstriler alanlarında disiplinlerarası bir katkı sunmakta ve bu yetkinlikleri iletişim öğrencilerinin kariyer dayanıklılığı ve özerkliği için temel birer yapı taşı olarak konumlandırmaktadır. Sonuç kısmında tez, iletişim fakültelerinde hukuki ve mali okuryazarlık modüllerinin müfredata entegre edilmesi yönünde somut öneriler sunmakta; bu sayede mezunların yaratıcı iş dünyasının karmaşık ve belirsiz yapısına daha hazırlıklı olmaları hedeflenmektedir.Article Citation - Scopus: 6Customer Experience in Five-Star Hotel Businesses: Is It an “experience” for Customers?(Emerald Publishing, 2023) Şanlıöz-Özgen, H.K.; Kozak, MetinPurpose: Concerning the development of “experience” as an economic phenomenon, this study aims to analyse customers' evaluations of their experiences in five-star hotel businesses and to identify if the hospitality experience is evaluated as an “experience” by its specific aspects. Design/methodology/approach: Structural and thematic narrative analyses in a multi-dimensional setting were applied to stories from 107 participants who stayed in five-star hotel businesses. Findings: Customers evaluate their overall experience as an “experience” reflected by experiential statements. However, they demonstrate higher cognitive orientation at the sub-experience levels (food and beverage, rooms, etc.). Research limitations/implications: The paper sheds light on the fact that customers may evaluate their experiences with cognitive and experiential aspects. The study focuses on participants' lived experiences to understand the customer perspective with the “experience” concept leading to the memorability of customer experiences in hotel businesses. Further research is required with a larger sample group, mixed-methods implementation and longitudinal and comparable examination to understand seasonal, motivational and cultural differences. Practical implications: The paper reveals various aspects of customer experiences in five-star hotel businesses around the variety of their offerings evaluated by cognitive and experiential perceptions so that dedicated efforts of the managers will be enhanced with a better and strategic understanding of the “experience” concept to achieve business goals. Originality/value: The study offers insightful findings relating to customers’ service- and experience-based experiences and how “experience” is perceived by customers from various angles in the five-star hotel businesses. © 2023, Emerald Publishing Limited.Article Turist-turist Etkileşimi: Her Şey Dahil Otel Örneği(2023) Sop, Serhat Adem; Günaydın, Yusuf; Kozak, MetinBu araştırma, her şey dahil hizmeti sunan otel işletmelerinde turist-turist etkileşiminin nasıl gerçekleştiğini ve bu etkileşimin bireylere nasıl fayda sağladığını keşfetmek amacıyla yürütülmüştür. Bunun için nitel araştırma yaklaşımı benimsenmiş ve görüşme tekniği kullanılarak veri toplanmıştır. Veri toplama süreci 25 Mayıs–14 Ekim 2021 tarihleri arasında Bodrum’da her şey dahil hizmet veren beş yıldızlı bir otelde yüz yüze yürütülmüştür. Türkiye, Azerbaycan, Rusya, Ukrayna, Polonya, Hollanda, İran, Fransa ve Arnavutluk’tan turistlerin katıldığı araştırmada toplam 18 katılımcıdan veri toplanmıştır. Araştırmanın sonucunda, turistlerin pandemi döneminde dahi yeni yerler keşfetme, dinlenme ve sosyal etkileşime girme gibi beklentiler içerisinde olduğu anlaşılmıştır. Ayrıca, turistlerin sadece diğer otel misafirleriyle değil, aynı zamanda yerel halk ve otel çalışanlarıyla da sosyal temas kurma arzusunda oldukları belirlenmiştir. Diğer taraftan, otel içerisindeki turist-turist etkileşimini engelleyen temel unsurun yabancı dil sorunu olduğu keşfedilmiştir. Buna rağmen bazı turistlerin diğer turistlerle etkileşime girmek için özel bir çaba sarf ettiği görülmüştür. Sonuç olarak, turist-turist etkileşimi bireyin öznel iyi oluş duygusunu desteklemekte, yabancı dil bilgisinin gelişmesini sağlamakta, otelde yapılanlar/konuşulanlar hakkında bilgi sahibi olmasına imkân tanımakta ve tatilden haz almasına neden olmaktadır.Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 16Meaning of Luxury in Hospitality: an Analysis of Multiple Destinations(Elsevier, 2022) Correia, Antonia; Reis, Helena; Moro, Sergio; Kozak, Metin[Abstract Not Available]Article Citation - WoS: 20Citation - Scopus: 28Negotiating Interdisciplinary Practice Under the Covid-19 Crisis: Opportunities and Challenges for Tourism Research(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2022) Liu, Xinyi; Wen, Jun; Kozak, Metin; Jiang, Yangyang; Li, ZhiyongPurpose COVID-19 is currently the most serious crisis facing the world, and scholars in the medical and social sciences are working to save lives and mitigate the societal effects of the pandemic.
