ÖgeThe Effect Of Framing On Support For Renewable Energy In Turkey(Institute of Social Sciences, 2019) Akgün, Elif ; Hannum, Christopher Michael ; 569614 ; Economics ; EkonomiWhen social planners desire to lead people's perceptions and attitudes for a given subject, they use framing techniques. The existence of framing effect on a given subject implies that decisions are description-dependent. That is, unlike classical economy suggests, economic agents are not rational while making decisions. Framing is becoming more and more important when there is a division of ideas over a subject or when the targeted population are divided in terms of moral and political values they hold such as environmentalism in United States. On the one hand, political liberals support environmental actions, while on the other, political conservatives neglect the reality of climate change even though its severe effects can directly be felt.

ÖgeThe Impacts Of Transportation Investment On Turkish Economy At Micro, Macro And Regional Level: In A Spatial Computable General Equilibrium Model Framework(Institute of Social Sciences, 2018) Pişkin, Metin ; Hannum, Christopher Michael ; 530879 ; Economics ; EkonomiThis thesis develops a framework for economic analysis of highway projects in Turkey, estimating the economic effects of these projects on regional welfare and economic growth. The framework integrates a transport model with a multiregional Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model. The CGE model is developed for eight sectors of eight macro regions plus three biggest cities, namely Istanbul Area, Ankara Area and Izmir Area. Three counterfactual experiments are developed based on decreases in transportation margins due to a 'distance shortening'. All simulation results show that highway investment program improves welfare for all regions but in different levels according to scenarios.
