Parsons’ system theory focused on the question of how to hold society together. Accordingly, concepts such as social balance, social integration, and social harmony came to the fore. This does not mean, however, that he ignored social action and social change. On the contrary, social action compatible with social equilibrium and gradual social change are inherent in Parsons’ theory. Based on a literature review, this study aims to show how Parsons dealt with phenomena of social action and social change in the three phases of his sociological thought, which can be classified as social action, general systems theory, and the cybernetic model of general systems theory. Within this framework, it is revealed that in Parsons’ thinking social action and social change allow movement toward adaptation within the mutual relationship between society and the individual’s psychological and motivational structure .","PeriodicalId":240052,"journal":{"name":"Sosyoloji Araştırmaları Dergisi","volume":"322 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122476726","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the opportunities provided by these devices have helped strengthen physician authority and autonomy, they have also led to skyrocketing healthcare costs. Since 1970’s, in order to control the costs, changes have been implemented in the provision and financing of the healthcare, which also aimed to control and audit physician activity, including use of technology. The impact of these changes on professional autonomy have a significant place in the medical sociology and sociology of professions literature. Drawing from this framework and interviews conducted with medical specialists in Ankara, this study examines the physician autonomy with regards to their use of medical imaging devices and how these devices affect their daily medical practices. The study argues that this requires not only addressing the nature and pace of technologies but also physicians’ relationships with other actors in healthcare and the structural characteristics of the health system.","PeriodicalId":240052,"journal":{"name":"Sosyoloji Araştırmaları Dergisi","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128464635","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Findings indicate that the attitudes of citizens with prior court experience are less positive than attitudes of those with no such experience. It is argued that a negative attitude towards the courts is the outcome of having an experience with the courts, rather than the other way around. It was found that satisfaction with the court experience positively influenced the attitudes towards courts for those who experienced court as civil and criminal plaintiffs, as well as observers and witnesses, while satisfaction with outcomes had same effect for criminal defendants. It is argued that attitudes towards courts are shaped by two components: The stable base which reflects a general and abstract trust in institutions, and a flexible component which is shaped by the nature of the experience and interaction that one has with the courts.","PeriodicalId":240052,"journal":{"name":"Sosyoloji Araştırmaları Dergisi","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117144025","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
