    (Scibulcom Ltd., 2019) Firinci B.; Mete B.; Pehlivan E.
    This study was conducted to evaluate the usability and livability of urban areas by the individuals who are at and above the age of 50 living in the city of Malatya which is located in the eastern region of Turkey in terms of housing, outdoor and transportation; and to examine the relevant socio-demographic properties. The questionnaire form, which questioned the sociodemographic properties, and the usability of house, transportation and outdoors, consisted of 41 questions. As a result, it was observed that most of the male individual who were above the age of 50 lived in houses that were in adequate size, and the majority of them owned their houses. It was observed that those who lived in rural areas had more heating problems and experienced less security and environmental problems. When physical disability is considered in old age period, it was observed that half of the participants lived in houses or flats that did not have elevators. It was determined that the comfort of public transport was low. The fact that social gender inequality continued at further age was also determined as another finding that has to be emphasised. © 2019, Scibulcom Ltd. All rights Reserved.

    (Scibulcom Ltd., 2018) Firinci B.; Gokce A.; Pehlivan E.; Turmus G.N.; Ozer A.
    Ecological footprint (EF) gives us clues about sustainable life and appears before us as an important indicator showing the burden of humans on this planet. The purpose of the present study was to examine the behaviours and the variables that affect these behaviours of doctor candidates, which represent an important profession in the world and in our country in this respect. The study was designed in cross-sectional fashion and was conducted in December 2017 with medicine faculty students. The dependent variables of the study were EF scores and the scores of the EF sub-components like food, house, travel, and other, and the carbon footprint (CF) score; and the independent variables were age, gender. EF score median (min-max) value of the study group was computed as 2.90 (1.78–7.09) kha, and the CF score median (min-max) value was computed as 11.69 (5.99–40.19) t. The travel component median (min-max) value was 0.93 (0.06–4.82) kha. The highest contribution to the EF was made by the transportation sub-component. In the light of the data of the present study, it was concluded that the medicine faculty students had information on the EF concept. This information must be increased with training that will be provided in the future. © 2018, Scibulcom Ltd. All rights reserved.
