The contribution to management, of the benefit and understanding of the application of perceived value.

Perceived value is increasingly seen as a focal construct in marketing and often described as a key determinant of sustainable competitive advantage and superior performance. Despite these interests, little research has addressed the perceived value construct, and there is no well-accepted perceived value measure. This thesis aims at developing, testing, and applying a perceived value measure, while demonstrating its application in management. It also sets out to test a set of antecedent and consequent relationships to explore influences on, and behavioural outcomes of perceived value in the parcel postal industry. Perceived value is defined in this thesis as the judgement by the consumer of the associated perceived benefits offered by (or linked to) a product or service, when the associated sacrifices have been evaluated or assessed (assuming that through the evaluation process one may either reduce, eliminate or ignore any associated sacrifices). Using perceived risk as a focal measure of associated sacrifices to determine perceived value, the various dimensions of perceived value were researched. Data were collected using a questionnaire which assessed the various dimensions of perceived risk. Since these dimensions provide a perceived risk measure, this measure was then used to assess perceived value and other service evaluation constructs. A model is suggested which shows the relationships between perceived risk, perceived value, satisfaction, and behavioural intentions. It was found that there is an average, and direct negative relationship between perceived risk and perceived value. Also, there is a strong, direct and positive relationship between perceived value and satisfaction, and an average, and direct positive relationship between perceived value and behavioural intentions. The relationships between perceived risk and satisfaction, perceived risk and behavioural intentions were found to be partially mediated by perceived value. Also, the effect of perceived value on behavioural intentions was found to be partially mediated by satisfaction. This thesis provides academics with a new conceptualisation and framework for further research into the perceived value concept. It demonstrates to marketing practitioners especially involved in planning, how perceived value can be used in strategic marketing planning. It particularly demonstrates to practitioners involved in control how non financial indicators can be used in control.
Análisis de la percepción subjetiva del esfuerzo diferenciado y de la fatiga en distintos formatos de juegos reducidos en fútbol

The aim of this study was to analyze the differentiated perceived exertion (dRPE) in different small sided games (JR) formats of 4 vs. 4 varying both the size of the soccer field and the duration of rests between repetitions. A loss of performance in sprint of 5 and 15 m and in the capacity of change of direction (CODA) with and without ball was also analyzed. 46 soccer players who competed in Division Honor, Tercera Regional and Segunda Regional participated in this study. A loss of performance in the sprint 5 m (p 0.05, TE = 0.8 high). Possibly a smaller sided games with short rest time can cause a greater loss of performance in the sprint of 5 m and in the test 505 without ball.

Search-Based Peer Reviewers Recommendation in Modern Code Review

Code review is of primary importance in modern software development. It is widely recognized that peer review is an efficient and effective practice for improving software quality and reducing defect proneness. For successful review process, peer reviewers should have a deep experience and knowledge with the code being reviewed, and familiar to work and collaborate together. However, one of the main challenging tasks in modern code review is to find the most appropriate reviewers for submitted code changes. So far, reviewers assignment is still a manual, costly and time-consuming task. In this paper, we introduce a search-based approach, namely RevRec, to provide decision-making support for code change submitters and/or reviewers assigners to identify most appropriate peer reviewers for their code changes. RevRec aims at finding reviewers to be assigned for a code change based on their expertise and collaboration in past reviews using genetic algorithm (GA). We evaluated our approach on a benchmark of three open-source software systems, Android, OpenStack, and Qt. Results indicate that RevRec accurately recommends code reviewers with up to 59% of precision and 74% of recall. Our experiments provide evidence that leveraging reviewers expertise from their prior reviews and the socio-technical aspects of the team work and collaboration is relevant in improving the performance of peer reviewers recommendation in modern code review.
THE CORRELATION BETWEEN READING STRATEGIES AND READING COMPREHENSION ACHIEVEMENT OF THE ELEVENTH GRADE STUDENTS OF SMA MUHAMMADIYAH 6 PALEMBANG.[SKRIPSI]

This study investigated the correlation between reading strategies use and reading comprehension achievement of the eleventh grade students of SMA Muhammadiyah 6 Palembang. There were fifty students as the samples completed the reading section of TOEFL test, and the survey of reading strategies (SORS). Descriptive statistic, pearson product-moment correlation, and regression analysis were used to analyze to collect the data. The result showed that reading strategies level of participants was moderate. M=3.31; SD=14.40, the most frequently use of reading subcategories was (GLOB 1) – tended to have a purpose in mind while reading, M=4.30; SD=863 and the least frequency use was (SUP 5) - When text becomes difficult, read aloud to help me understand what being read, M=2.45; SD=1.182. The result of correlation analysis revealed that the correlation coefficient or the r (582) was higher than r-table (.273). Then, the level of probability (p) significance (sig.2-tailed was 000. It means that p (.000) was lower than . 05. Thus, there was significant correlation between the students‘ reading strategies use and their reading achievement. It can be inferred that the students‘ reading strategies use influenced their reading comprehension achievement significantly with tvalue (4.964) was higher than ttable (2.010) with sig. Value (000) was lower than probability (.05). The result showed that this study could have implications for English teacher, students, and next researcher.
A Cost–Benefit Analysis of Summer Reading Programs Implemented Under State Guidelines

This study investigated the costs of different summer reading programs and compared costs to the benefits of summer school as a way to avoid retaining students not reading proficiently at the end of third grade. Per pupil costs ranged from US$1,665 to US$2,194. The average cost was US$1,887 (range: US$266-US$5,552) with 82% of overall expenses attributable to personnel. Results indicate that offering summer reading programs could save schools across the state a total of between US$70.6 million and US$75.5 million in expenses related to providing an extra year of school had all eligible students been retained in third grade instead. This equates to about US$4 in benefit for every dollar invested in summer programs.
Impact of renal replacement therapy on the respiratory function of patients under mechanical ventilation

Objective To assess the oxygenation behavior and ventilatory mechanics after hemodialysis in patients under ventilatory support. Methods The present study was performed in the general intensive care unit of a tertiary public hospital. Patients over 18 years of age under mechanical ventilation and in need of dialysis support were included. Each patient was submitted to 2 evaluations (pre- and post-dialysis) regarding the cardiovascular and ventilatory parameters, the ventilatory mechanics and a laboratory evaluation. Results Eighty patients with acute or chronic renal failure were included. The analysis of the ventilatory mechanics revealed a reduction in the plateau pressure and an increased static compliance after dialysis that was independent of a reduction in blood volume. The patients with acute renal failure also exhibited a reduction in peak pressure (p=0.024) and an increase in the dynamic compliance (p=0.026), whereas the patients with chronic renal failure exhibited an increase in the resistive pressure (p=0.046) and in the resistance of the respiratory system (p=0.044). The group of patients with no loss of blood volume after dialysis exhibited an increase in the resistive pressure (p=0.010) and in the resistance of the respiratory system (p=0.020), whereas the group with a loss of blood volume >2,000mL exhibited a reduction in the peak pressure (p=0.027). No changes in the partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (PaO2) or in the PaO2/the fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO2/FiO2) ratio were observed. Conclusion Hemodialysis was able to alter the mechanics of the respiratory system and specifically reduced the plateau pressure and increased the static compliance independent of a reduction in blood volume.
Wavelet-based decomposition of F0 as a secondary task for DNN-based speech synthesis with multi-task learning

We investigate two wavelet-based decomposition strategies of the f0 signal and their usefulness as a secondary task for speech synthesis using multi-task deep neural networks (MTL-DNN). The first decomposition strategy uses a static set of scales for all utterances in the training data. We propose a second strategy, where the scale of the mother wavelet is dynamically adjusted to the rate of each utterance. This approach is able to capture f0 variations related to the syllable, word, clitic-group, and phrase units. This method also constrains the wavelet components to be within the frequency range that previous experiments have shown to be more natural. These two strategies are evaluated as a secondary task in multi-task deep neural networks (MTL-DNNs). Results indicate that on an expressive dataset there is a strong preference for the systems using multi-task learning when compared to the baseline system.
EFEK KECERDASAN EMOSI DAN KEPUASAN KOMUNIKASI TERHADAP ORGANIZATIONAL CITIZENSHIP BEHAVIOR KARYAWAN

This study aimed to determine the influence of emotional intelligence and communication satisfaction of organizational citizenship behavior of employees. This research used quan­ti­ta­­tive approach with correlational methods. The participants of this research was 300 employees in Bandung. The instruments were emotional intelligence (Goleman that modified by Muta’asifah (2013), communication satisfaction (Downs and Hazen, 1977), and organizational citizenship behavior (Kumar and Shah, 2015). The analysis of this research was multiple linier regression analysis. The result of this research showed that there is a effect of emotional intelligence and communication satisfaction on organiza­tional citizenship behavior of employees in Bandung. In order to improve the aspects of this research that are still lacking, it is necessary to conduct training and counseling on employees.
Protostars and Planets IV OBSERVATIONS AND THEORY OF STAR CLUSTER FORMATION

Young stars form on a wide range of scales, producing aggregates and clusters with various degrees of gravitational self-binding. The loose aggregates have a hierarchical structure in both space and time that resembles interstellar turbulence, suggesting that these stars form in only a few turbulent crossing times with positions that map out the previous gas distribution. Dense clusters, on the other hand, are often well mixed, as if self-gravitational motion has erased the initial fine structure. Nevertheless, some of the youngest dense clusters also show sub-clumping, so it may be that all stellar clustering is related to turbulence. Some of the densest clusters may also be triggered. The evidence for mass segregation of the stars inside clusters is reviewed, along with various explanations for this effect. Other aspects of the theory of cluster formation are reviewed as well, including many specific proposals for cluster formation mechanisms. The conditions for the formation of bound clusters are discussed. Critical star formation efficiencies can be as low as 10% if the gas removal process is slow and the stars are born at sub-virial speeds. Environmental conditions, particularly pressure, may affect the fraction and masses of clusters that end up bound. Globular clusters may form like normal open clusters but in conditions that prevailed during the formation of the halo and bulge, or in interacting and starburst galaxies today. Various theories for the formation of globular clusters are summarized.
The Milky Way’s Kiloparsec-Scale Wind: A Hybrid Cosmic-Ray and Thermally Driven Outflow

We apply a wind model, driven by combined cosmic-ray and thermal-gas pressure, to the Milky Way, and show that the observed Galactic diffuse soft X-ray emission can be better explained by a wind than by previous static gas models. We find that cosmic-ray pressure is essential to driving the observed wind. Having thus defined a “best-fit” model for a Galactic wind, we explore variations in the base parameters and show how the wind’s properties vary with changes in gas pressure, cosmic-ray pressure, and density. We demonstrate the importance of cosmic rays in launching winds, and the effect cosmic rays have on wind dynamics. In addition, this model adds support to the hypothesis of Breitschwerdt and collaborators that such a wind may help to explain the relatively small gradient observed in γ-ray emission as a function of galactocentric radius.
The relationship among family differentiation, identity control theory, and the occupational identity status in late adolescents /

The present study examines the relationship between family dynamics and late adolescent occupational identity development by focusing on both the family emotional environment and the identity control processes that drive career decision making. A total of 232 college students completed a self-administered questionnaire that included demographic information and different measures that assessed parent-adolescent interpersonal feedback, family differentiation (in its two dimensions, family tolerance for intimacy and family tolerance for individuality), and occupational identity status. Results of multivariate analysis show no interaction effects between family tolerance for intimacy and family tolerance for individuality when explaining the present and transitional occupational identity status o f college students. It is possible to conclude that each dimension o f the family differentiation construct explains, separately, the occupational identity status of achievement, foreclosure, moratorium, and diffusion. Outcomes o f this study also reveal that parental interpersonal feedback are more likely to happen in well differentiated families. Results on transitional occupational identity statuses may be considered exploratory since an attempt to estimate the probability of a student being in a transition stage was performed by using the two highest scores obtained in the Occupational Identity Scale (CIS). In addition, this study provides a foundation for career counseling intervention in which adolescents struggling with occupational issues may benefit from career interventions that respond not only to the nature o f their decisions, as being evidenced by their current and transitional occupational identity status, but more importantly to the family dynamics present during their decision-making process The significant role played by the family in career development constitutes one o f the most import.mt factors to focus on, mainly, because as a social support, parents have the highest level o f influence on their children's occupational decisions
A systematic review on the impact of point-of-sale tobacco promotion on smoking.

INTRODUCTION The tobacco retail environment is a crucial marketing medium for the industry. A 2009 review found evidence of a positive association between exposure to point-of-sale (POS) tobacco promotion and increased smoking and smoking susceptibility, though limitations in the evidence base were identified. AIM AND METHODS We reviewed and critically appraised recent evidence documenting the influence of POS tobacco promotion, and POS tobacco display bans, on smoking-related behavior and cognitions. We reviewed original quantitative and qualitative research that examined the relationship between POS tobacco promotion and smoking prevalence, individual-level smoking and quitting and tobacco purchasing behavior, smoking susceptibility, and smoking-related cognitions. RESULTS Twenty peer-reviewed studies (18 quantitative and 2 qualitative) met the inclusion criteria; each study reported findings consistent with a positive association between exposure to POS tobacco promotion and smoking or smoking susceptibility. Several studies met key criteria for causality: 4 indicated a dose-response association, 2 prospective studies were identified, and evidence from intervention studies supported the reversibility of the association. Findings were consistent across different study designs, settings, and measures. CONCLUSIONS The existing evidence supports a positive association between exposure to POS tobacco promotion and smoking. This review provides evidence to support the continuation of POS tobacco display bans in those jurisdictions where such legislation has been introduced and strengthens the evidence encouraging similar policies in jurisdictions without a POS display ban.
Effect of acid treatment on the structure of sepiolite

ABST RACT: An ab initio determination of the structure of sepiolite after acid treatment (HCl 0.5 N for 24 h) was carried out using X-ray powder diffraction data. After acid treatment, the sections normal to the a and c axes presented discontinuities, ~2.25 AÊ wide, parallel to the (010) plane, with no electronic density maxima, thus suggesting that adjacent planes are joined by van der Waals-like residual links. Partial dissolution was detected on both octahedral and tetrahedral sheets, beginning by breaking the ribbons not along the edges, but in the centre, thus creating a 5.2066. 79 AÊ tunnel along the a axis. By interrupting the tetrahedral sheet, this mechanism changes the phyllosilicate-like nature of the sepiolite to an inosilicate-like structure.
Saneamiento Territorial in Nicaragua, and the Prospects for Resolving Indigenous-Mestizo Land Conflicts

abstract:Territorial conflicts between “indigenous people” and migrants identified as “mestizos” are intensifying across Latin America’s indigenous territories. Saneamiento—understood as the removal of mestizos from indigenous territories—is often presented as a solution to these conflicts. Yet, the underlying premises of the process remain poorly understood. This article aims to shed light on saneamiento as a process in Nicaragua, which is one of the first countries to implement saneamiento in its current form, and to draw attention to its inherent contradictions. Through the dual lenses of cultural politics and political ecology, I suggest that saneamiento reproduces the sedimented ethnic categories and difference-making that define neoliberal multiculturalism. This establishes an indigenous/mestizo binary, glossing over internal differences in power, realities, and identities within these seemingly natural categories. At the same time, saneamiento casts territorial conflicts as an exclusively local problem requiring local solutions, obscuring the broader political-economic and institutional structures at work. The paper reviews the prospects for saneamiento in resolving territorial conflicts in the Caribbean Coast of Nicaragua specifically.resumen:Los conflictos territoriales entre “comunidades indígenas” e inmigrantes, identificados como “mestizos”, están intensificándose en los territorios indígenas de América Latina. A menudo, se presenta el saneamiento territorial—interpretado como el desalojo de mestizos de territorios indígenas—como una solución para estos conflictos. Sin embargo, las premisas del proceso han recibido poca atención en la literatura y no queda claro si cumple con su objetivo. Las metas de este artículo son tanto dar a conocer lo que significa el saneamiento en Nicaragua—uno de los primeros países a implementarlo en su forma actual—como ilustrar las contradicciones inherentes del proceso. Usando un enfoque doble de política cultural y ecología política, sugiero que el saneamiento reproduce categorías étnicas sedimentadas y la construcción de diferencia, típicas del llamado “multiculturalismo neoliberal”. Esto establece una categoría binaria indígena/mestizo, mientras oculta las diferencias internas en términos de poder, realidades, e identidades dentro de estas “categorías” aparentemente naturales. Al mismo tiempo, el saneamiento presenta los conflictos territoriales como un problema exclusivamente local, requiriendo soluciones locales, lo que esconde las estructuras políticas y económicas más amplias que influyen en la situación. El artículo evalúa el potencial del saneamiento para resolver conflictos territoriales en la Costa Caribe de Nicaragua específicamente.
Psychological Empowerment: Antecedents From Goal Orientation and Consequences in Public Sector Employees

Recent research has encouraged the study of psychological empowerment in public organizations owing to its benefits for optimum service delivery and performance improvement in the public context. This study analyzes how learning goal orientation, prove-performance goal orientation, and avoid-performance goal orientation are related to psychological empowerment and how such empowerment influences well-being outcomes within the context of public employees. Analyses of data from 553 public-sector employees showed that only learning goal orientation strongly and positively influences psychological empowerment. Furthermore, the results support the positive and significant relationship between psychological empowerment and both job satisfaction and affective commitment and the negative link with job anxiety levels. Theoretical and practical implications, as well as future directions for the psychological empowerment issue, are discussed.
