    Social media adoption among Turkish public relations professionals: A survey of practitioners
    (ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2012) Ozlem Alikilic; Umit Atabek; Alikilic, Ozlem; Atabek, Umit
    Social media is emerging as an important public relations tool and empowers two way symmetrical communications with publics and stakeholders. PR professionals are confronted with the swift rise of social media that forces practitioners to pay due and timely attention. They are not only excited about utilizing these tools together with conventional media but are also excited about speaking directly to their publics and stakeholders without the involvement of any intermediaries. Through the perspective of UTAUT model this paper examines the social media adoption of PR professionals in Turkey and how they employ social media tools both internally and externally. We employed a web-based questionnaire to 126 PR professionals who are members of the Turkish Public Relations Association. Findings reveal that Turkish PR professionals highly appreciate the importance of social media in recent PR practice. However not all social media tools are equally adopted, e-mail is the most and virtual world applications are the least adopted social media. It is also found that in the future social networks are expected to be the most important social media while corporate web sites get the second and mobile phone (PDA) applications get the third rank.

    Aşı Tereddüdünü Anlamak: Covid-19 Aşısı ile İlgili Komplo Teorilerinin ‘Twitter’ Üzerinden Analizi
    (2024) Ebru Gökaliler; Özlem Alikılıç; Gökaliler, Ebru; Alikılıç, Özlem
    Covid-19 pandemisi sırasında gelişen aşı tereddütü hastalığın yayılmasına bağışıklığın gecikmesine ve ölüm oranlarının artmasına neden olmuştur. Sosyal medya platformları aşılar hakkındaki şüphelerin ve yanlış bilgilerin yayılmasına katkıda bulunmuştur. Türkiye'de en popüler sosyal ağlardan biri olan Twitter aşı karşıtlığı için önemli bir platform haline gelmiştir. Bu çalışma Türk kullanıcıları tarafından Twitter'da geliştirilen aşı tereddüdü ve komplo teorilerinin nedenlerini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. #aşıyahayır #aşıolmayacağım #denekolmaTürkiye #aşıolmakistemiyorum gibi etiketlerle atılmış 3939 tweet analiz edildi. İncelenen kategoriler arasında bilimsel (bu kategorideki en yüksek sayıdaki yorumlar genellikle tıbbi yan etkilerle ilgili) çeşitli (en yüksek sayıdaki yorumlar aşı tereddüdü nedenlerinin belirtilmemesi ile ilgili) komplo teorileri (en yüksek sayıdaki yorumlar büyük ilaç şirketleriyle ilgili) ve genel içerik (Covid-19 aşılarının çocuklara uygulanmasına karşı görüşler) yer almıştır.

    Beyond Mainstream Paradigms: The Epistemological Gap in Turkish Public Relations Postgraduate Research
    (Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2025) Alikilic, Ozlem; Gokus, Busra
    PurposeThis study aims to examine the extent to which graduate theses in the field of public relations in Türkiye engage with critical thinking and theory. By analyzing 664 master's and doctoral theses completed between 1984 and 2024, the research assesses the dominance of mainstream paradigms and the presence - or absence - of critical approaches. Highlighting the lack of epistemological diversity in postgraduate education, the study critiques the overemphasis on technical skills and the marginalization of ethics, social responsibility and critical reflection. Ultimately, it advocates for integrating critical theories into curricula to foster a more democratic and transformative public relations education.Design/methodology/approachThis study adopts a descriptive and exploratory qualitative design. It analyzes 664 public relations theses - 511 master's and 153 doctoral - completed in Türkiye between 1984 and 2024 using content analysis. Coding followed Ferguson's (1984; 2018) tripartite framework (introspective, practice and/or application and theory development) and incorporated subcategories from Sallot et al. (2003). Abstracts were the main data source; full texts were examined when theoretical grounding was insufficient. Six critical frameworks guided the identification of critical perspectives: (1) power relations and hegemony, (2) socio-political conditioning, (3) discursive legitimation, (4) methodological strategies, (5) public interest and realism and (6) critical cultural praxis.FindingsThe study reveals that 98% of public relations theses in Türkiye (1984-2024) are based on mainstream theories, with only 13 of 664 theses (1.96%) - eight master's and five doctoral - engaging with critical perspectives. Although greater critical depth is expected at the doctoral level, most critical theses were at the master's level. The majority of research emphasizes technical applications and managerial solutions, while critical dimensions - such as socio-political context, ethics, gender and power - are largely neglected. This suggests a structural marginalization of critical thinking in both academic production and pedagogical practices within public relations education in Türkiye.Originality/valueThis study represents the first comprehensive critical analysis of graduate theses in public relations education in Türkiye. It not only maps the numerical distribution of theses but also uncovers their theoretical orientations, pedagogical trends and epistemological gaps. By demonstrating the near absence of critical theories, the research highlights the urgent need for structural transformation in the field. It offers a strong rationale for developing pedagogical models centered on critical thinking and serves as a valuable reference for scholars, educators and curriculum developers aiming to reform public relations education toward more democratic and reflective practices.

    Using R Studio in Intermedia Agenda-Setting Studies: Computerizing Cross-Lagged Correlation Using Rozelle-Campbell Baseline
    (MARMARA UNIV FAC COMMUNICATION, 2020) Inanc Alikilic; Ozlem Alikilic; Alikılıç, Özlem; Alikılıç, İnanç
    Today the importance of reproducible and transparent research has been increased along with the use of large data sets in a multinational environment. Researchers using intermedia agenda-setting theory have also affected this trend by conducting studies using big data and social media data. The Rozelle-Campbell formula is widely used by such researchers to investigate media effects and their direction. R is a general purpose statistical software package used in many fields of research. It is licensed for a free and an open-source software. There are many researchers have released applications for general use in R after they have been introduced into the literature. The authors have written this informative paper as a reference text for users of R in communication studies. Our primary purpose is to provide users an easy way to learn how to perform using R and R Studio analysis to use in intermedia agenda-setting without having to navigate through the extensive and excessive documentation. Another purpose of this study is to simplify and to reduce analyzing steps in complex cross-lagged correlations (synchronous correlations cross-lagged correlations and autocorrelations) and Rozelle-Campbell Baseline analysis. On the other hand neither do we claim to provide the most convenient solution for the researchers. We have tried to provide asimple approach which is easily understandable for those with an understanding of statistics. We anticipate that this tool R will be particularly useful for intermediate users who need or want to conduct their studies when retrieving from the big data. In addition this article will encourage researchers to improve their analytic abilities by providing a brief manual and tested examples. Following the existing literature this study re-tests the results of previous four intermedia agenda-settings studies which had been previously analyzed by SPSS Software Program or Microsoft Excel. The present study's data analysis 100% has matched with original studies. The results suggest that researchers can use this R Studio scripts to conduct their intermedia agenda-setting analysis.

    Nefret Söylemi Üzerinden Ötekileştirme: Twitter’da Mültecilere Yönelik Nefret Tipolojisi Analizi
    (2021) Ebru Gökaliler; Özlem Alikılıç; İnanç Alikılıç; Gökaliler, Ebru; Alikılıç, Özlem; Alikılıç, İnanç
    2010 yılından bu yana Suriye’de yaşanan iç savaş nedeniyle ülkelerinden göç eden halk için Türkiye önemli bir göç merkezi haline gelirken yaşanan bu kaos ve mülteci krizi sonucunda Avrupa ülkelerinde ve Türkiye’de mülteci sorunu nefret söyleminin merkezine yerleşmiştir. Mülteciler ve yaşadıkları sorunlarla ilgili çevrimiçi ortamlarda üretilen içerikler kullanılan dil mültecilere yönelik oluşan nefret söyleminin daha güçlenmesine sebep olmaktadır. Çalışmada Türkiye’de Suriyelilerle ilgili çevrimiçi paylaşımların nefret unsurları taşıyıp taşımadığı ayrımcı söylem stratejileri temelinde sınıflandırılarak araştırılmıştır. Türkiye’deki Twitter kullanıcılarının Türkçe içerikleri üzerinden gerçekleştirilen bu araştırmada #suriyeli” “#mülteci” “#suriyelimülteci” “#suriyelileriistemiyoruz” ve “#suriyelilerdefolsun” hashtaglerinin altına yapılan 4.217 adet tweet incelenmiş ve mültecilere geliştirilen söylemlerin daha çok hangi ayrımcı söylem stratejileri tipolojileri altında toplandığı keşfedilmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışmada olumsuz söylemlerin ötekileştirici ve kışkırtıcı bir arka planı olduğu Twitter kullanıcılarının söylemlerinin sertleşip hakaret boyutuna vardığı mültecilere yönelik nefret ve düşmanlık söylemlerinin kolektif olarak kamusal eleştiriler çerçevesinde toplandığını söylemek mümkündür.

In this chapter a strategic framework that offers to broaden the concept of green marketing is provided. This chapter also explores the nature of strategic corporate social responsibility with a view towards understanding its components. Then discussion is framed by CSR theories and critical approaches. © 2018 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    The feminization and misrepresentation of public relations practitioners in Turkish tv dramas
    (Routledge, 2022) Ozlem Alikilic; Alikilic, Ozlem
    Among the roles scattered in the scenarios of the Turkish TV dramas PR practitioners are ascribed various roles and stereotyped personal traits which are mainly represented by the female gender. They are designed and scripted as similar stereotypes that are negative characters with similar roles. This paper examines how female PR professionals have been portrayed in Turkish TV dramas. Using the approach of media framing from the perspective of gendered profession this paper analyzes women in a variety of public relations roles in Turkish TV dramas produced between 1998 and 2020. A total of fifty-five PR female practitioners were identified in these fifty-one TV dramas. The results show that among the fifty-five (N = 55) PR practitioner characters the majority were women (N = 52) and that the general tone of most of the characters was negative profit-oriented and manipulative. Interestingly the study also notes that the few (N = 3) PR characters portrayed as male were all portrayed as gay. This reinforces the idea that PR is portrayed as a feminized field. Misleading media portrayals of PR practitioners can have a negative impact on how people view the profession. © 2023 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
