Özet
Digitalization, being positioned as the essential element of our lives in consequence\rof globalization, has brought innovation to publishing as it did with numerous\rfields. Nowadays, digital books appear in addition to printed books. The means of\rproducing, recording, and storing information are available on digital devices in\rwhich caused a change in the reading habits of the readers. Thus, providing\ropportunities for readers to further their reading by means of a tablet, computer, or\rmobile phone without utilizing the concept of books. However, the effects of\rreading habits, the sustaining the continuity of these habits and their encodings\rpresents itself as a matter of significance that has to be researched. The emergence\rof the new media technologies, in particular, with utilizing the newest research\rmethods it provided, ensured the acquiring of data that was undiscovered until that\rpoint. One of the devices of these methods that leads to the most significant,\reffective, and accurate results is the monitoring of the brain waves. The detection of\rthe brain waves by utilizing EEG (Electroencephalography) plays a crucial role in\rvarious fields of research. The research of such has helped the advancement of the\rinterpretations about individuals’ moods, psychological and physical conditions.\rThe features of electronic books and the frequencies of the reader’s immediate brain\rwaves who read George Orwell’s Animal Farm in print and e-book form were\rstudied in this research. The readers have read the first chapter in print and the\rsecond chapter through the e-book. A focus group study with three phases (pretest,\rmonitoring the brain waves, and posttest) was conducted with 15 participants. The\rparticipants were between the ages of 18-36, consisting of 9 women and 6 men\rparticipants, and were arbitrarily chosen. The brain waves were monitored by using\rNeuroSky, a brain signal detection device. Analyses that were made were recorded\rby the Brainwave Visualizer, an android-based program, and the acquired data were\ranalyzed.
