The main purpose of this study is to detect the mediation effect of the logistic performance index in the relationship between the enabling trade index and the volume of foreign trade. the simple mediation model was created by using the enabling trade index published by the World Economic Forum, the logistics performance index published by the World Bank, and the foreign trade volume data of the countries. The study used 94 countries’ data for the years 2016, 2014, and 2012, compiled 282 samples in total. In the application part of the study, the correlation coefficients between variables were determined with IBM SPSS 20 Package Program, and then a simple mediation analysis was performed using PROCESS 3.5 macro developed by Andrew F. Hayes. According to the findings obtained as a result of the analysis, it has been determined that the logistics performance index mediates the relationship between the enabling trade index and the foreign trade volume. The fully standardized effect size of the mediation effect (K2) was determined as .5564, and it was revealed that the mediating role was at a high effect level. In addition, the indirect effect value (a. b) is determined as 6.670.

Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, ticareti kolaylaştırma endeksi ile dış ticaret hacmi arasındaki ilişkide lojistik performans endeksinin aracı etkisinin tespit edilmesidir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda çalışmada, Dünya Ekonomik Formu tarafından yayınlanan ticareti kolaylaştırma endeksi, Dünya Bankası tarafından yayınlanan lojistik performans endeksi ve ülkelerin dış ticaret hacmi verileri kullanılarak basit aracılık modeli oluşturulmuştur. Çalışmada 94 ülkeye ait 2012, 2014 ve 2016 yılları verileri kullanılmış ve toplamda 282 örneklem derlenmiştir. Araştırmanın uygulama kısmında IBM SPSS 20 Paket Programı ile değişkenler arasındaki korelasyon katsayıları belirlenmiş, ardından Andrew F. Hayes tarafından geliştirilen, SPSS programına eklenen PROCESS 3.5 makrosu kullanılarak basit aracılık analizi yapılmıştır. Analizler sonucunda elde edilen bulgulara göre, lojistik performans endeksinin, ticareti kolaylaştırma endeksi ile dış ticaret hacmi arasındaki ilişkiye aracılık ettiği tespit edilmiştir. Aracılık etkisinin tam standardize etki büyüklüğü (K2) .5564 olarak tespit edilmiş, aracılık rolünün yüksek etki seviyesinde olduğu ortaya konulmuştur. Ayrıca dolaylı etki değeri (a.b) 6.670 olarak tespit edilmiştir.
