Mülteci krizi sırasında dijital iletişim aracı olarak sosyal medya kullanımı: Türkiye'deki Suriyeli mülteciler üzerinden bir araştırma
(Nobel Akademik Yayıncılık, 2023) Aldamen, Yasmin; Aldamen, Yasmin; İletişim Fakültesi, Yeni Medya ve İletişim Fakültesi
Kriz iletişimi, yıkıcı bir olay sırasında insanların ve grupların birbirleriy- le iletişim kurabilecekleri stratejik bir yaklaşımdır. Bir kriz meydana geldiğinde proaktif, hızlı ve ayrıntılı iletişim kritik önem taşmaktadır. Kriz iletişimi, bir meydan okuma veya tehditle karşı karşıya kalan bir bireyi veya grubu korumak ve savunmakla ilgilidir (Barrera, 2014). Kriz terimi, "yönetimin dikkatle ilgilenmesini gerektiren ciddi olaylar için ayrılmalıdır" (Coombs ve Holladay, 2010). Kriz yönetimi, "krizlerle mücadele etmek ve verilen fiili zararları azaltmak için tasarlanmış bir dizi faktör" olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Etkili kriz yönetimi, kriz sonucunda insanların aldığı zarar miktarını büyük ölçüde azaltma ve hatta bir olayın krize dönüşmesini önleme potansiyeline sahiptir...
Refugee journalist phenomenon as a consequence of migration and refugee crises: The role of social media in transferring refugees role from has been affected to has affected
(Redfame, 2023) Aldamen, Yasmin; Aldamen, Yasmin; İletişim Fakültesi, Yeni Medya ve İletişim Fakültesi
This study examines the impact of using social media by Syrian refugees, focusing on the shift from receiving messages to sharing content and news related to the Syrian crisis. Using both qualitative and quantitative methods, the findings indicate that social media has become a more accessible and affordable medium of communication for Syrian refugees, both during and after seeking refuge. The study highlights the transformation of Syrian citizens from citizens who are not allowed to use the internet and social media to "refugee journalists" by being affected by social media. Social media use among Syrian activists or Syrian refugee journalists has contributed to the emergence of the "refugee journalist" phenomenon, which helps convey opinions, voices, and suffering to the world. However, the findings also highlight the negative effects of the "refugee journalist" phenomenon on Syrian refugees, citizens, and activists. The findings also indicate the potential moral violations and lack of integrity and reliability standards in the publishing of activists' stories, leading to distortion of facts and misleading audiences.
The role of print and electronic media in the defense of human rights: A Jordanian perspective
(Deanship of Academic Research at the University of Jordan, 2017) Aldamen, Yasmin; Aldamen, Yasmin; İletişim Fakültesi, Yeni Medya ve İletişim Fakültesi
The doctrine of human rights has gained increasing attention and respectability around the world. Electronic and print media can also play their roles by highlighting the violations of human rights, raising awareness, and influencing legislations and resolutions. This study is an attempt at throwing light on this role of media in the context of Jordan. The researcher selected a random sample of (1243) people, 18 years of age and above, of the (5.1) million people, the total population of Jordan according to the general census carried out by Population and Housing Census at the Department of Statistics (DoS) in October 2004. Findings showed significant differences in the role of print and electronic media. The role of electronic media was found to be better than that of print media. Jordanian media can improve its performance by having greater freedom and by focusing on the uses and gratification of recipients. The study found out that; it is very important to train journalists and increase their awareness more about the laws of human rights which leads to enhance the role of media in addressing human rights issues, and there is a need to increase dedication to human rights issues individually and collectively. In addition to, encourage more studies and field researches on the role of media in the defense of in human rights in Jordan.
Understanding social media dependency, and uses and gratifications as a communication system in the migration era: Syrian refugees in host countries as a case study
(MDPI, 2023) Aldamen, Yasmin; Aldamen, Yasmin; İletişim Fakültesi, Yeni Medya ve İletişim Fakültesi
Through the theoretical frameworks of the media system dependency model and uses and gratifications theory, this study examined the uses of social media by Syrian refugees in Jordan and Turkey. A mixed-methods approach was used to increase the credibility and validity of the study’s findings by combining a qualitative method with quantitative data. The findings show that there were some factors that affected the Syrian refugees’ use of social media before seeking refuge in Jordan and Turkey, which were mainly its ban due to the regime’s censorship and a bad Internet connection due to the bad infrastructure. The absence of these two factors led to an increase in their social media dependency after seeking refuge. There are variances in which social media sites Syrian refugees use the most and why. The majority relied on Facebook for various reasons, and this dependency had varying repercussions on individuals. Furthermore, many immigrants were acquainted with new platforms, implying that refugees became social-media-literate and participated in the updates of the new platforms, even if such sites were not well known to the general public. The Syrian refugees’ dependency on social media varies from person to person due to differences in personal goals, social status, locations, living characteristics, and easy access to the Internet. Furthermore, this dependency on social media has different effects on them according to the media system dependency model. The refugees become increasingly dependent on social media to satisfy their needs and, because of that, social media dependency will become more important in their lives and will increase its influence and effects on them. Furthermore, the study found that the Syrian refugees depended on social media for various gratifications, such as educational, work, and business; information access; cultural and social aspects; connecting with networks and families; establishing friendships; learning new skills; self-expression; making business; and finding work, in addition to reaching routes and contacting smugglers to help them leave the country.
Sosyal medyanın Türkiye’de yaşayan Suriyeli mülteciler üzerindeki etkisi
(Bilgin Kültür Sanat Yayınları, 2022) Vural, Ali Murat; Aldamen, Yasmin; Aldamen, Yasmin; Karacagil, Zeynel; İletişim Fakültesi, Yeni Medya ve İletişim Fakültesi
Sosyal medya, günlük yaşamı, kararları, tercihleri, kanaatleri ancak daha da ötesinde genel olarak medyanın taraflı ve yetersiz kaldığı bir dünyada, doğrudan kişiler ve topluluklar arası haberleşmeyi, bilgilenmeyi ve yönlenmeyi sağlayan araca dönüşmüştür. Dolayısıyla sosyal medyanın etken olduğu süreçlerden birini de krizler oluşturmaktadır. Zira kriz zamanlarında sosyal medya neredeyse en önemli bilgi kaynağına dönüşmektedir. Bu çalışmada da "kriz" terimi, Suriye iç savaşının ürettiği Suriyeli mültecilerin yaşadıkları ve onlar üzerinden yaşananlar için ifade edilmektedir. Suriye'de, Arap Baharı Devrimlerinden etkilenerek başlayan gösteriler bir süre sonra rejime karşı isyana dönüşmüş, başlangıçta basit talepler ve masum gösterilerle başlayan süreç, hükümet güçlerinin yoğun baskı ve şiddeti sonucu 11 yıllık bir iç savaşa dönmüştür. 2011 yılında başlayan iç savaş, bugün halen çözümsüzlük ile devam etmektedir. İç savaş, çok sayıda Suriyeliyi ülkesinden kaçmaya zorlamış ve dünyanın bu çağdaki en büyük mülteci krizinin ortaya çıkmasına neden olmuştur. Milyonlarca Suriyeli pek çok ülkeye dağılmış, gittikleri ülkelerin sığınmacısı durumuna düşmüşlerdir. Bu kaçışta, mültecilerin en yoğun sığındıkları ülke ise Türkiye olmuştur…
Can a negative representation of refugees in social media lead to compassion fatigue? An analysis of the perspectives of a sample of Syrian refugees in Jordan and Turkey
(MDPI, 2023) Aldamen, Yasmin; Aldamen, Yasmin; İletişim Fakültesi, Yeni Medya ve İletişim Fakültesi
Negative, tragic, traumatic and suffering representations continue to dominate the discussions and content on social media in the stories and content related to Syrian refugees. The public, while browsing social media, finds that this representation is the dominant one that dominates the image of refugees. Thus, there is a potential risk that the public’s compassion will be negatively affected after repeated exposure to the dominant representation in light of the inability to put an end to that situation. This study discusses the perspectives of Syrian refugees living in Jordan and Turkey on whether they feel such repeated negative and tragic content about their stories and news on social media could affect the empathy of the audience in hosting communities with them, especially since social media is an open-source platform that all people at any time and from any place can post, re-share, comment and create content by adding texts, photos and videos, not like traditional media, which are controlled more than social media platforms for open participatory content. This study aims to explore how a vulnerable population, such as Syrian refugees in Istanbul and Amman, sees the effect of negative representation on themselves and their image in the hosting communities and does not aim to examine or offer any conclusion as to whether the public in Jordan and Turkey have experienced compassion fatigue. This study provides and extracts some useful insights, but proves no hypotheses or conclusive evidence regarding the occurrence of compassion fatigue in the public; thus, the study opens the door for the debate on the role that social media plays as a source of compassion fatigue among citizens towards refugees, mainly when they are repeatedly exposed to such negative stories and content, as well as calls for an in-depth and extensive study on the topic from the point of view of the public and citizens in the hosting countries, after examining, understanding and analyzing the opinions and their dimensions of the sample of refugees in this study.
Xenophobia and hate speech towards refugees on social media: Reinforcing causes, negative effects, defense and response mechanisms against that speech
(MDPI, 2023) Aldamen, Yasmin; Aldamen, Yasmin; İletişim Fakültesi, Yeni Medya ve İletişim Fakültesi
This study aims to recognize the possible role of social media in forming xenophobia and hate speech against Syrian refugees and to understand the reinforcing causes and negative effects of that speech on the refugees, as well as the refugees’ response mechanisms against that speech. A mixed approach was used in this study. In addition to a questionnaire tool that was used to collect data, focus group discussions were conducted to support the obtained data. The study used a statistically representative sample of Syrian refugees who live in Turkey and Jordan. The participants see the negative representation of their image via social media as leading to hatred towards them. The findings showed that there are some causes that reinforce xenophobic speech, such as otherization and demonization of refugees, by the negative representation and spreading of fake news on social media, which are published continuously. Moreover, gatekeepers have a role in promoting negative representation by approving xenophobic speech transmission without filtering or ethical control. The results also showed that the negative representation containing hate speech contributes to more negative effects on the refugees, such as psychological effects, as a sense of hatred towards refugees is created in the host country, and the effect of changing the feelings of the public from empathy to compassion fatigue concluding to hatred towards those refugees. Furthermore, the results showed that the Syrian refugees follow different defense mechanisms against xenophobia and hate speech against them published and circulated through social media platforms. The participants were divided into two main categories; the first one is those who prefer replying, not being silent, and defending the refugees, and the second category is those who prefer keeping silent. The first category of refugees stated that they do not accept keeping silent and they prefer to reply using logical, emotional, or defensive and offensive ways to bad comments against Syrian refugees in general. While the second category claimed that either they do not have time to reply or they sometimes agree that it was only a reaction to the behavior of some individual refugees. Some of them explained that they are afraid of being subjected to more bad comments and negative reactions against them. When they encounter aggressive comments and see that such views represent the majority, they prefer to keep silent to avoid being attacked. This is understood within the framework of the spiral of silence theory, where refugees hide their opinions, views, and preferences when they think that they fall within a minority group. They fear social isolation through social media.
How the media agenda contributes to cultivating symbolic annihilation and gender-based stigmatization frames for Syrian refugee women
(International Sociological Association, 2023) Aldamen, Yasmin; Aldamen, Yasmin; İletişim Fakültesi, Yeni Medya ve İletişim Fakültesi
The Syrian refugee crisis has been ongoing since 2011, with millions of people being forced to flee their homes due to the devastating war. This has resulted in one of the largest humanitarian crises of our time, with many refugees seeking a better life and safety in other countries. The issue of the Syrian refugee crisis has been a widely debated topic in media and politics, but the focus on the representation of Syrian refugee women in various media outlets is a concerning issue. Syrian refugee women have suffered from several social challenges in the host countries, including negative portrayals, stereotyping, and frames in the media. Not only do these negative portrayals perpetuate stereotypes, but they also marginalize an already vulnerable group, overlook the unique challenges and contributions of Syrian refugee women in the host communities, and contribute to the symbolic annihilation of Syrian refugee women. The media play a role in informing the public about what and how to think about a particular issue through the way or frame in which it is presented. This media framing process plays a significant role in presenting populist governments, symbolic elites, and a media agenda that aims to cultivate public opinion with certain ideas and impressions. Based on the theoretical understanding of media framing theory, this study presents how Syrian refugee women see their image represented in the media. A quantitative approach was used to collect the data by conducting focus group discussions with a number of Syrian refugees. The findings showed that there was a common insight among the participants that Syrian refugee women are framed negatively in a collective representation of humiliation and dehumanization. The participants see that the media representations of Syrian refugee women have often been reductive and stigmatizing in certain frames. Furthermore, their image in the media is not normalized or presented in a positive way that shows that every woman has an individual story. However, they see that the Syrian refugee woman's image is stigmatized in certain frames related to gender-based issues. Thus, this stigmatization is cultivated by repeated negative frames, mainly victimization and demonization ones.
Stimulation of the collective memory of the 1999 Turkey earthquake through the Turkish media coverage of the 2023 earthquake
(Bastas, 2024) Aldamen, Yasmin; Abdul Jaleel, Dilana Thasleem; Aldamen, Yasmin; İletişim Fakültesi, Yeni Medya ve İletişim Fakültesi
Turkey has been struck by several powerful earthquakes. Since the 1999 earthquake was the most recent and devastating earthquake before the last one happened in February 2023, many of these media channels’ depictions of the 2023 earthquake in Turkey may have been impacted by the collective memory of the 1999 earthquake. Collective memory of disasters and conflicts frequently takes on special significance as a mechanism for society to cope with the catastrophic events they have witnessed. Collective memory aids societies in dealing with the consequences of such events by giving a feeling of continuity as well as a structure for interpreting and comprehending what occurred. The media and social media are important in developing and conveying collective memory. They play an important role in framing events, transmitting details, and providing a forum for public debate. Social media, in addition to traditional media, has emerged as an innovative platform for the construction and diffusion of collective memory. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the Turkish media depicted the collective memory of the 1999 earthquake in the aftermath of the 2023 earthquake. If the collective memory of the 1999 earthquake is invoked in media coverage of the 2023 earthquake, how is it depicted in terms of lessons learned, public response, and influence on Turkish society? The study’s findings indicate that the analysis of Turkish media coverage pertaining to the 2023 earthquake has demonstrated a restricted collective recollection of the 1999 earthquake.
Sosyal medya ve mülteci krizi: Sosyal medyanın Ürdün ve Türkiye’de yaşayan Suriyeli mülteciler üzerindeki etkisi
(İbn Haldun Üniversitesi Yayınları, 2022) Aldamen, Yasmin; İletişim Fakültesi, Yeni Medya ve İletişim Fakültesi
Suriye’deki iç savaştan kaçarak mülteci konumuna düşen gençler ara-sında teknolojiyi yoğun ve etkili bir şekilde kullanan yüksek oranda genç bir nüfus bulunmaktadır ve bu genç nüfus sayesinde mülteciler zor durum¬da kaldıklarında yardım için Facebook’ta kurulan sayfalardan birbirleriyle haberleşebilmekte, hatta bu sayfalardan, zorlu yolculukları için ne tür çadır almaları gerektiği, hangi yolun daha güvenli olduğu gibi bilgileri öğrenip birbirleriyle paylaşabilmektedir. Sosyal medya sayesinde mültecilere yardım etmek için yol ve yöntem-ler de geliştirilmekte, gönüllülerin oluşturduğu ağlar, ailelerin birbirlerini bulmalarında yardımcı olmaktadır. Facebook, Twitter, Youtube ve Instagram gibi sosyal medya ortamları önemli bir medya platformu olarak Suriye içinden gelen tüm bilgileri dünyaya aktarmakta, kolektif görüşün oluşma¬sına hizmet etmekte, geleneksel medyaya içerik sağlamada önemli bir işlev görmektedir...
