The data obtained fromthe policein the province ofTokatwere subjected toregression analysis.

The purpose of this study is to empirically examine the relationship between quality management practices (QMP) and inter-organizational project performance (IPP), as well as the moderating effects of inter-organizational communication (ICOM), relationship, and process conflicts in Pakistan’s-government healthcare organizations (NGOs) and public healthcare organizations. We developed a hypothetical model based on contingency theory. Using a self-administered questionnaire, the empirical data was collected from 296 respondents from NGOs and public healthcare in Pakistan between March and November 2019. SmartPLS 3.3.9 was used to apply structural equation modeling (SEM). The findings show that QMP significantly impacts IPP in healthcare inter-organizational collaborative projects. ICOM and process conflict significantly moderate the impact of QMP on IPP. In contrast, relationship conflict does not affect IPP. This study has practical implications for healthcare NGOs and public healthcare organizations that want to improve the performance of their projects by implementing QMP in their projects. This study added to the total quality management literature by clearly understanding QMP and its relationship to IPP.

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate whether students' perception of psychological capital and their communication skills have an impact on their entrepreneurial intention. According to the results obtained from 369 undergraduates, who are study at a public university in Turkey, it was observed that there were positive relationships between their communication skills, psychological capitals and entrepreneurial intentions. Also, results indicated that psychological capital affects entrepreneurial intention more than communication skills. Besides, among the sub-dimensions of psychological capital only self-efficacy has positive effect on entrepreneurial intention, the others have no significant effect.

Bu çalışmanın amacı, pandemi döneminde yaşanan kaygı ve sosyal izolasyonun akademisyenlerin mesleklerine olan yabancılaşma düzeylerine etkisini ve psikolojik olarak güçlü olmanın akademik yabancılaşmayı azaltıcı etkisini araştırmaktır. Bunun yanında akademik performans ile akademisyenliğe yabancılaşma ve psikolojik dayanıklılık ilişkisi de incelenmiştir. Araştırmanın katılımcılarını, Türkiye’nin 75 ilinden 684 akademisyen oluşturmaktadır. Araştırma verileri online anket tekniği ile toplanmıştır. Veriler üzerinde SPSS ve Amos paket programları kullanılarak; betimsel analizler, ilişki analizi ve yapısal eşitlik modellemesi yapılmıştır. Bulgulara göre pandemi döneminde akademisyenlerin mesleklerine yabancılaşma düzeyleri tüm boyutlarda artış göstermiştir. Bununla birlikte akademisyenlerin kendine ve araştırmaya yabancılaşmaları ile akademik performansları arasında olumsuz etki görülmüş. Akademik performans ve psikolojik dayanıklılık ile olumlu ilişkili bulunmuştur. Ayrıca psikolojik dayanıklılık akademisyenliğe yabancılaşmayı tüm boyutlarda azaltmaktadır.
