The data analyzed using both probit and logit models. The results indicate that urban residing individuals are less likely to be part-time employed compared to rural residing ones, and females are more likely to be part-time employed than males. In addition, being married increases the likelihood of being part-time employed for females, while it declines the likelihood of being part-time employed for males, and increases in education level seem to decline the probability of being part-time employed for both males and females. Furthermore, regardless of gender, having more children in the household increases the probability of part-time employment.</p

For this purpose the annual data covering the period of 1980-2006 are used. In order to point the effect of openness; exchange rate, openness to foreign trade and foriegn direct investment are used. In addition to this, GDP per capita is also included in the model by the thought of openness effect on economic growth and this effect may be inflationary. According to the estimation results obtained using panel data models, openness and, accordingly, GDP per capita have positive effects on inflation.

For this purpose, the data set of largest 500 and following largest 500 industrial firms determined by ‹stanbul Chamber of Industry have been used. The data set on these firms covers the period of 1993 and 2007. Our findings show that, even though firms that use debt to create more added value, prefer to use internal funds primarily. This finding indicates that pecking order theory is more succesful to explain the debt behaviour of industrial firms in Turkey.

Calismada 1993-2011 yillari arasindaki isletme verileri (ihracat, calisan sayisi, donem kâr/zarari, sermaye yapisi) ile makroekonomik degiskenler (GSYIH, reel kur, enflasyon, ihracat birim deger endeksi) kullanilmistir. Calismanin ekonometrik kismindaki yer alan panel veri analizleri, sabit etki, rassal etki ve standart hatalari duzeltilmis panel yontemleri kullanilarak yapilmistir Elde edilen bulgulara gore, incelenen isletmelerin ihracatini isletme buyuklugu, reel kur, enflasyon, GSYIH ve ihracat birim deger endeksi istatistiksel olarak anlamli bir sekilde acikladigi gorulmektedir. Kisi basi GSYIH ile ihracat arasinda ayni yonlu ve istatistiki olarak anlamli bir iliskinin oldugu gorulmektedir. Diger taraftan, “reel efektif doviz kuru” ve “enflasyon” ile firmanin ihracat performansi arasinda ters yonlu ve istatistiki olarak anlamli iliskiler bulunmustur.

In this study we use individual level data obtained from Household Labor Force Survey data of 2006 to examine the determinants of incidence of unemployment in Turkey. We use three alternative definitions of unemployment. We employ Heckman’s two step approach which tackles the sample selection problem. We find that the likelihood of being unemployed is large for women than that for men when the labor force participation is taken into account. Living in urban areas seems to decrease the probability of being unemployed. Increases in the education level seems to decline the likelihood of being unemployed for males while the reverse is true for females. There is an inverse-U shaped relation between age and the probability of being unemployed. Finally, being head of household decreases the likelihood of being unemployed.
