“…Önder (2013) draws attention to the social pressure and underlines the fact that the patriarchal and gender‐based division of labour is the biggest obstacle to the women's participation. The socio‐cultural factors affecting the females' careers can be considered under three main headings: (a) responsibilities that women feel to show protect/show interest in their families; (Acker & Armenti, 2004), (b) other family responsibilities (e.g., Copur, Erkal, Dogan, & Safak, 2010), (c) social and cultural structures (e.g., Evers & Sieverding, 2015).…”

This study aims to accomplish three objectives: (a) to reveal the reasons why women academics prefer tourism academia; (b) to examine the experiences and perceptions of gender (in)equality of women academics; (c) to determine the cultural, social and family‐based variables affecting the careers of women academics. The study is based on three steps by the application of triangulation method including interviews and focus groups. Study findings suggest that the academia is an attractive environment for women to escape from the industry despite the former brings several problems in taking steps for maintaining their career‐based responsibilities.

“…Although Turkey has achieved significant progress in recent years in strengthening its educational system, local and international experts believe that the Turkish educational culture must change in order to resolve educational issues (Endruweit, 1998). Because socioeconomic and sociocultural elements are expected to play a big role in the disruptions in Turkey's education system (Aydogan, 2009;Copur, Erkal, Dogan and Safak, 2010;Kalaycioglu, 2015). As can be seen, investing in education in today's world leads to increased productivity, economic growth, and, ultimately, development, because it tries to acquire more information and skills (Heyneman, 2009).…”

Laboratory applications are one of the most essential strategies in science teaching. Therefore, science teachers are expected to advance their laboratory skills. In Türkiye, there are generally applications for construct theoretical knowledge. Literature indicates the need for individuals who can use knowledge. For this reason, there is a need for laboratory skills through which knowledge is used in science teaching. Hence to meet this need, it is expected that theoretical knowledge will be used unitedly with practical knowledge. This research aims to compare pre-service science teachers’ knowledge of simple electrical circuits which is both theorical and practical. The research group consisted of 60 pre-service science teachers studying at a university in Trabzon, Turkey. The study was carried out using the case study method under the category of descriptive research approaches. Data were collected with conducting drawings, observation studies of experimental setups, and clinical interviews. Data were analyzed through content analysis. The data obtained determined that pre-service science teachers had 'theoretical' knowledge within the scope of simple electrical circuits, but they could not put this knowledge into practice 'practically' and could not establish the circuits. In addition, it is one of the findings of the research that pre- service science teachers are theoretically limited in what they learn, and they do not have the opportunity to use the novel forms of knowledge in active learning environments, which indicates they do not have procedural knowledge.

“…Even in dual-earner families, there is often a traditional division of labor between women and men (Bartley et al 2005). For example, in Turkey, despite many women having negative attitudes toward traditional gender roles, they largely remain responsible for all domestic tasks (Copur et al 2007) while men are less likely to share the housework with women (Copur et al 2010).…”

The main aim of this study  was to develop a reliable and valid measurement tool for exploring parents' traditional and modern approaches to parenting. Although some scales focus on attitudes about parenthood, many of those are out of date or do not appropriately focus on parents' attitudes toward parenting in the Turkish culture. Thus, a new scale measuring parental attitudes in the Turkish cultural context is needed for proper assessment. With that goal, this study was undertaken with three separate samples including mothers and fathers. Principal component analyses were carried out to determine the factor structure of the scale and results showed that the scale has two dimensions: traditional and modern approaches. Confirmatory factor analyses were also conducted to check the two-factor structure and suggested that the scale has an acceptable model fit. Finally, the internal consistency scores and significant associations demonstrated that the scale has good psychometric properties in terms of reliability and validity. The current study has thus provided a reliable and valid scale for researchers to investigate and assess parents' traditional and modern attitudes toward parenting.
