Abstract-The main purpose of this study is to explore the small and medium-sized enterprises specific components of organizational buying behaviour. The study is qualitative in nature, which presents primary data collected through ten indepth interviews participants of which are selected by snowball sampling method. The results obtained from the content analysis of the interviews show that there are ten major components of small and medium-sized enterprises' organizational buying behaviour, which are product specific factors, supplier specific factors, buyer firm specific factors, economic factors, market based factors, customer based factors, relationship based factors, decision makers, information sources, and intermediaries, which show some significant differences from the ones of existing organizational buying behaviour models.Index Terms-Buying behaviour, buying behaviour models, buying behaviour components, small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs), large companies.
Buying impulsiveness, tendency for cognitive dissonance, and price consciousness may differ among consumers, primarily because of differences in individuals' time orientation, thinking style, risk perception, and cognitive flexibility. This exploratory hypothesis‐testing study aims to examine whether the cognitive differences in future orientation, holistic thinking, risk perception, and cognitive flexibility of consumers affect buying impulsiveness, tendency for cognitive dissonance, and price consciousness, through hypothesis testing and structural equation modelling. Data were collected face‐to‐face from 414 participants across the two largest cities of Turkey (İstanbul and Ankara) using the convenience sampling method. The findings demonstrate that future orientation, holistic thinking, and risk perception negatively affect buying impulsiveness. The tendency for post‐purchase cognitive dissonance is negatively affected by future orientation and holistic thinking and is positively affected by risk perception. Price consciousness, however, is affected positively by future orientation and negatively by risk perception. In addition, cognitive flexibility, which is also shaped by future orientation and holistic thinking, increases price consciousness and plays a mediating role in the relationship between future orientation and price consciousness.
The use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in military and civilian areas is increasing day by day. Increased usage reveals risks related to accidents and crimes. Human factors are among the most important causes of accidents and crimes in aviation. Understanding the impact of these factors on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) operations is vital to prevent accidents and crimes. In this study, the literature on human factors in unmanned aerial vehicles is systematically reviewed and classified. As a result of the classification, it is aimed to understand which subjects are deficient or inadequate. In this way, it is tried to make recommendations for future research.
