In this research, 150 companies (1050 company-years) were selected to test the research hypothesis between 2014 and 2020. The Levin, Lien and Wu tests were used to test the reliability of research data, the Jarque-Bera test was used to determine the normality of the data, the regression method was used to express the relationship between variables, t-test statistics to test the significance of regression coefficients, and finally the F-test statistic was used to determine the significance of the equation.
