    DO LABOUR MARKET INSTITUTIONS VARIABLES IMPACT UNEMPLOYMENT? EVIDENCE FROM THE CEE COUNTRIES
    (Sveuciliste Josipa Jurja Strossmayera & Osijeku, Ekonomski Fak, 2023) Akbas, Yusuf Ekrem; Ugur, Ahmet; Can, Esra
    Purpose: In this study, the aim is to determine whether labour market institutions (LMI) variables impacted the unemployment rate in the Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) countries between 2000 and 2017. Methodology: Panel data methods that take cross-sectional dependence into account are used for the analysis. Results: Empirical findings show that real minimum wages, tax wedge, and union density do not impact the unemployment rate in Poland, Latvia, and Estonia, while these variables impact the unemployment rate in Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Slovenia, and Hungary. Conclusion: As a result of the research, it is concluded that the LMI variables do not have a substantial effect on the unemployment rate in Poland, Latvia, and Estonia. On the other hand, the LMI variables have a substantial impact on the unemployment rate in Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Slovenia, and Hungary. Therefore, it is understood that the LMI variables have an influence on the unemployment in only four out of seven CEE countries.

    Examining the Effect of Fear on Investment Decisions and Interpreting It with Psychological Factors: A Research on Turkiye2
    (Sosyoekonomi Soc, 2023) Ugur, Ahmet; Tosun, Nergis
    In this study, the effect of fear on investment instruments was examined within the scope of behavioural finance. Turkiye's Financial Fear Index was calculated as an indicator of fear. Then, its relationship with investment instruments was examined by Zivot-Andrews's (1992) Unit Root Test, Gregory Hansen's (1996) Cointegration Test, and Toda-Yamamoto's (1995) Causality Analysis. As a result of the analysis, it was found that there is a relationship between fear and investment instruments in Turkiye. Emotional and cognitive factors were effective in investment vehicle preferences. The effects of loss aversion, regret avoidance and status quo tendency biases were observed among emotional factors. Among the cognitive factors, it was interpreted that the effect of uncertainty avoidance, herd behaviour and conservatism factors emerged.
