Effects of Psychological Capital on Job Satisfaction and Turnover Intention: Thai Higher Education Perspective

In today’s organizations, employee turnover is considered as a serious issue for the employers to compete in the long run. On this note, employees' job satisfaction plays a vital role to reduce turnover intention among the employees. Besides, psychological capital becomes a prominent interest for its numerous contributions in the organization settings. Considering this in mind, to explore job satisfaction-turnover intention relationship and the influence of psychological capital on that relationship are the aims of this research. 104 faculty members from different Thai higher educational institutes took part in this study. The correlation analysis depicted a positive relationship between job satisfaction and psychological capital. As expected, both job satisfaction and psychological capital show a strong negative relationship with turnover intentions. Among the human traits of psychological capital, resilience and optimism found to be positively related to job satisfaction and negatively related to turnover intention. However, no mediating role of psychological capital on job satisfactionturnover intention relationship is detected.
3D/Saline infusion Sono-hysterography versus conventional office hysteroscopy in uterine cavity evaluation prior to ICSI procedure

Objective: To assess the predictive values of 3D Saline infusion sono-hysterography (SIS) in assessment of uterine cavity abnormalities or lesions in comparison to conventional office hysteroscopy (OH) prior to ICSI procedure. Study design: A prospective observational study. Setting: Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, faculty of medicine, south Valley University, Egypt. Duration: From April 2017 to March 2018. Patients and methods: This study was conducted on 88 infertile women from the attendants for infertility clinic and underwent ICSI procedure. Uterine cavity had been evaluated using 3D/SIS by taking multiple transverse views in distended uterine cavity, few days later OH was done. The two procedures were done by 2 different investigators and the findings were recorded separately. Results: There was no a statistically significant difference between 3D/SIS and OH in the findings during uterine cavity evaluation with p value > 0.05. Sensitivity, specificity, positive, negative predictive values and diagnostic accuracy of 3D/SIS in assessment of uterine cavity lesions and anomalies were (64.4%, 94.3%, 73.4%, 91.7%, and 88.6% respectively). As regarding to pain score according to visual analog scale (VAS), there was a high statistically significant difference between OH and 3D/SIS with p-value <0.01. Conclusions & recommendations: 3D/SIS is considered a reliable, accurate and relatively safe procedure for uterine cavity abnormalities diagnosis and can be used as an alternative method for detection of uterine cavity abnormalities and any lesions prior to ICSI procedure. *Correspondence to: Ahmed M Abbas, MD, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Assiut University, Women Health Hospital, 71511, Assiut Egypt, Tel: +20 88 2414616; Fax: +20 88 9202503; E-mail: bmr90@hotmail.com
OPTIMIZATION OF MoS 2 CHEMICAL VAPOR DEPOSITION BY POWDER PRECURSORS

Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are promising additions to the growing number of 2D materials. Numerous potential applications have been identified, especially in the fields of electronics and optoelectronics. Among the TMDs, MoS2 is the most well studied. A common synthesis technique is chemical vapor deposition (CVD), whereby layers are built from gas phase reactants. Here, we pursued an optimized atmospheric pressure CVD process for MoS2 using an MoO3 precursor powder. The optimization criteria were: (1) deposition of monolayer MoS2 (2) the presence of single crystal domains with edge lengths ≥20 μm (3) high photoluminescence (PL) intensity (4) widespread monolayer coverage on the substrate (5) reproducibility and consistency of results. The work was split into three phases; in phase one, only MoO3 and sulfur precursors were used. Consistent growth of monolayers only occurred adjacent to the MoO3 powder grains and despite a high PL intensity, the size and quality of the crystals were poor. In phase 2, a heterogeneous combination of MoO3 and MoS2 powders was used. The monolayer coverage and reproducibility increased dramatically, but the domain sizes were mostly below 20 μm and significant variations in PL were observed. In phase 3, NaBr was added to the MoO3 precursor. Monolayer domain sizes above 200 μm were achieved alongside large-area coverage and satisfactory PL intensity. A humidity spike in the laboratory greatly reduced the sample quality, demonstrating that the method is unreliable without proper parameter controls. Overall, the NaBr-MoO3 precursor provided the best results and optimization was close to complete, but further work needs to be done to improve the reproducibility and consistency of results.
STRUCTURAL BEHAVIOR OF PULTRUDED GFRP PROFILES EXPERIMENTAL STUDY AND NUMERICAL MODELING

The design of GFRP pultruded profiles is limited by deformations in service limit states (SLS) and by local and/or global buckling in ultimate limit states (ULS). This work focuses on the structural behavior of GFRP pultruded I-profiles, particularly on the local buckling behavior. Hence, experimental studies were conducted: (i) coupon tests; and (ii) full-scale tests on short columns and threepoint and four-point bending tests on beams. Numerical models using the finite element method (FEM) were developed to analyze the profiles local buckling. Using these models, the influence of different cross-section shapes and members length on local buckling was evaluated.
Pharmacological evaluation of endophytic Penicillium pimiteouiense SGS isolated from Simarouba glauca DC

Article history: Received on: 29/05/2017 Accepted on: 17/07/2017 Available online: 30/09/2017 Medicinal plants are recently being recognized as resources of endophytes with interesting bioactive compounds. In the present study, pharmacological properties of the endophytic fungus Penicillium pimiteouiense SGS isolated from the medicinal plant Simarouba glauca DC were evaluated. Endophytes were isolated using surface sterilization procedure. The crude extract of cultured fungus was prepared in ethyl acetate and was evaluated for antimicrobial, antioxidant and anti hyperglycaemic activities. Phytochemical composition of the crude extract was also studied by standard qualitative assays. The extract of P. pimiteouiense SGS was found to have antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. Anti hyper glycaemic activity was also revealed by its inhibitory activities on alpha amylase and alpha glucosidase enzymes. Qualitative phyto chemical analysis of the crude extract showed presence of flavanoids, triterpenes, alkaloids and carbohydrates. The medicinal plant S. glauca needs to be explored further as a resource of rare endophytes with bio active compounds.
Effect of Biogas Effluent from Pig Manure and Durian Residues on Soil Chemical Property and Growth of Marigold Chit -

The efficiency of biogas effluent fermented with pig manure and durian residues on soil chemical property and growth of marigold were investigated. The experimental design was carried out in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 4 replications. Six treatments were control (no fertilizer), four concentrations (10%, 12.5%, 16.67% and 24%) of biogas effluent and chemical fertilizer. 10 days after planting, marigolds were transplanted to pots and the experiment was started. Each biogas effluent concentration was watered 400 ml per pot every 5 days. 15-15-15 and 12-24-12 formulas were used in chemical fertilizer treatment. The experiment was conducted for 90 days at Agricultural Technology Faculty in Rambhai Barni Rajabhat University. pH and electrical conductivity (EC) of soil were checked at the starting and end of experiment. The data of plant height, stem diameter, bush diameter, length around bush and SPAD value were collected every week. After flowering, number, diameter, fresh weight and dry weight of blooming flower were measured every day. The chlorophyll concentration of leaves, leaf water potential, fresh weight and dry weight of roots, branches and leaves were measured at the end of experiment. The results showed that there was no significant difference in leaf water potential among treatments. The growth of marigold in the control was lowest as compared to that in biogas effluent and chemical fertilizer treatments. At the end of experiment, the highest of height, stem diameter, bush diameter, length around bush, SPAD value, chlorophyll content, blooming flower number, fresh and dry weights of branches and fresh and dry weights of leaves expressed in marigolds treated by chemical fertilizer and all results were significantly different. On the other hand, the length, fresh weight and dry weight of roots in chemical fertilizer treatment were lower those results in biogas effluent treatment. Moreover, pH and EC of chemical fertilizer treated soil was most severe than the control and biogas effluent treatment. These may be the cause of the similar size, fresh weight and dry weight of blooming flower between biogas effluent and chemical fertilizer treatments.
New findings on increasing solar trend that can change Earth climate: are we entering new great solar minima?

Studies of the Sun-Earth relationships during the past years have dramatically changed our view on SolarTerrestrial Physics. Neither is the interplanetary medium unstructured or quasi-static, nor is it a simple magnetic stratified object. Thus, the interaction of the solar electromagnetic radiation (photons), hot plasma (electrons, protons and other ions), cosmic rays, microscopic dust particles, and magnetic fields (primarily from the Sun) with the upper environment of our Earth leads to a complex physics which is far to be understandable. This new science is growing rapidly, as well as for the physical problems which arise as for its growing impact on our societies. This last case is well illustrated by the emergence of the so-called Space Weather. In spite of a great number of papers and books written on this subject and on a broader one devoted to Solar-Terrestrial links, the different terms deserve to be clarified. In this paper, we will first establish a clear distinction between Space Weather, Space Climate, Space Physics, Sun-Earth connections, and Helioclimatology, this last word being introduced to describe the role of the Sun in the Earth's climate forcing. In a second step, we will emphasize the key role of the ranging time on which the effects may act. We will then underline the necessity to better predict solar activity showing the physical difficulties for such an exercise, yielding the extreme complexity for forecasting specific events. The three dataset, past Earth's temperature (since AD 630), solar shape variability (since AD 1600) and strength of umbral/sunspots magnetic field (since AD 1995) lead all to a Next Grand Minima predictable for 2015-2018. We will conclude by giving some imprints
Diversity of insect pollinators in coriander ( Coriandrum sativum Linn . ) VAR . ACR-1 under Semi-Arid region of Rajasthan

The diversity of various insect visitors associated with coriander (Coriandrum sativum Linn) was carried out under open field conditions at research farm, National Research Centre on Seed Spices, Tabiji, Ajmer in semi-arid region of Rajasthan. The coriander flowers were visited by 28 insect species belonging to18 families and 6 orders. Among these insect visitors, 10 species were recorded from Hymenoptera (53.05%), 4 unidentified species of hymenoptera from different families (4.58%), 8 species of Diptera from two families (36.09%), 3 species of Hemiptera from three families, 3 species of Coleoptera from two families, 1 species of Neuroptera and 3 species from Lepidoptera of three familieson coriander crop. were the three major groups comprising 93.72 percent of the total visitors recorded on coriander ecosystem. Among all pollinators, Apis florea was recorded as most dominating species (34.1%) followed by Apis mellifera (11.92%), Episyrphus balteatus De Geer (9.44%), Eristalis sp. (8.32%) Musca sp. 1 (7.73%), Apis dorsata (6.37%) and Episyrphus sp. (4.75%).
CHARACTERISTICS OF BENZENE , TOLUENE , AND XYLENE GAS REMOVAL BY A BIOFILTER USING SCORIA

The biodegradation experiments of benzene, toluene, and xylene (BTX) by bacillus culture were carried out. In biofilter experiments packed with scoria as a packing media, benzene and toluene were removed over 90% and xylene was removed over 80% with empty bed contact time (EBCT) between 10 and 60 seconds when each concentration was kept constantly at 600 ppmv. The maximum removal capacities of toluene, benzene and xylene were found to be 760 g/m-hr, 720 g/m-hr and 450 g/m-hr, respectively. The pH in a drain water maintained between 6.0 and 7.0 during the continuous operation for 195 days. The pressure drop had a tendency to increase slightly according to the inlet gas concentration, but was maintained low at about 5 mmH2O/m. The biofilter using scoria media showed an excellent efficiency of BTX removal, and would be able to apply in a full-scale system with economic advantage.
SPATIALLY VARYING IMPACT OF URBAN RAILWAY ON RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY VALUES IN BANGKOK

It is well recognized that urban rail transit brings a large benefit to adjacent areas; however, its spatial influence is still questionable, especially in cities with relatively little urban railway experience. The purposes of this study are to examine the impact of an urban railway on land development by investigating the land value and building stock; and to determine the variation of the impact through a spatial hedonic study. The case study considers an area along a corridor of the BTS railway line. This was Bangkok’s first urban rail transit; it has been in service for nearly ten years. We examined the impact of the railway on the area development and found that there has been a rapid increase in the number of buildings and floor space. We show that this is mainly caused by the urban railway by a comparison with a parallel road corridor that the railway service does not reach. As a result, the land values along the railway corridor have been increasing compared to other places in the city. The hedonic study of residential property reveals the influencing factors such as age and station proximity. A spatial hedonic model in the geographically weighted regression framework shows the spatial variation of the coefficients. Station proximity has a strong influence on the property values when the access to the station is poor. Our results provide useful information for improving railway services such as station access or feeder services.
Art Therapy in a Museum Setting for Adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities: A Literature Review

This literature review aims to explore a trend within the field of mental health services, of moving away from more restrictive and stigmatizing environments, such as hospitals and clinics, and into public spaces, specifically art museums. Current literature indicates that art therapy is specifically appropriate for individuals who have difficulty with social connection and verbal communication, allowing for a way to express themselves while finding connection in a nonverbal way. Art museums have also seen a shift in purpose through increasing community based and therapeutic programming, aimed to create a space of healing and connection, and becoming more accessible and comfortable to a wider range of museum patrons. Art museums are now being viewed as non-stigmatizing places that allow for natural learning to occur (Roberts et al., 2011). These shifts in both art therapy and the museum setting allow for a natural and mutually supportive collaboration. Although much of the research on the benefits art therapy in museum settings is inconclusive, evidence-based inquiry through the use of quantitative methods will allow for more advantageous opportunities toward art therapy collaborations within the unique and beneficial public museum setting.
Transitional vowels and extended sonorants. An acoustic study of Russian coda clusters

Transitional vowels in consonant clusters have played a prominent role in integrating gestural representations within phonology. This article addresses the question of how to diagnose a transitional vowel in a cluster containing a sonorant. It is argued that a vocalic interval may arise in such clusters due to the extension of the sonorant itself. An acoustic study of Russian word-final stop+liquid clusters is presented. The stop-liquid clusters (as in /tsikl/ 'cycle') were found to contain an interval very similar to a transitional vowel. However the acoustic properties of this interval indicate that it arises via extension and vocalization of the liquid gesture. This finding implies that the extent and pervasiveness of transitional vowel phenomena may need further refinement, especially between a stop and a sonorant. No vowel interval was found in liquid+stop clusters (as in /polk/ 'regiment'). It is hypothesized that the perceptibility of the liquid would be threatened if a word-final stop-liquid cluster was produced without an audible vocalized transition between the stop and the liquid. On the other hand, the postvocalic liquid is better recoverable. In Russian the realization of the liquid correlates with the sonority composition of the cluster where the liquid occurs.
Seasonal Variations in Femoral Gland Secretions Reveals some 6 Unexpected Correlations Between Protein and Lipid Components 7 in a

13 Abstract 14 Animals modulate intraspecific signal shape and intensity, notably during reproductive periods. Signal variability typically follows a 15 seasonal scheme, traceable through the expression of visual, acoustic, chemical and behavioral patterns. The chemical channel is 16 particularly important in lizards, as demonstrated by well-developed epidermal glands in the cloacal region that secrete lipids and 17 proteins recognized by conspecifics. In males, the seasonal pattern of gland activity is underpinned by variation of circulating 18 androgens. Changes in the composition of lipid secretions convey information about the signaler’s quality (e.g., size, immunity). 19 Presumably, individual identity is associated with a protein signature present in the femoral secretions, but this has been poorly 20 investigated. For the first time, we assessed the seasonal variability of the protein signal in relation to plasma testosterone level (T), 21 glandular activity and the concentration of provitamin D3 in the lipid fraction.We sampled 174male commonwall lizards (Podarcis 22 muralis) over the entire activity season. An elevation of Twas observed one to twomonths before the secretion peak of lipids during 23 the mating season; such expected delay between hormonal fluctuation and maximal physiological response fits well with the 24 assumption that provitamin D3 indicates individual quality. One-dimensional electrophoretic analysis of proteins showed that gel 25 bands were preserved over the season with an invariant region; a result in agreement with the hypothesis that proteins are stable 26 identity signals. However, the relative intensity of bands varied markedly, synchronously with that of lipid secretion pattern. These 27 variations of protein secretion suggest additional roles of proteins, an issue that requires further studies.
Environmental Boundary Conditions for Long-term Hygrothermal Calculations

This paper introduces a newly developed weather analysis computer tool, WeatherSmart. The main purpose of the tool is to facilitate the analysis of the outdoor weather data to obtain representative environmental boundary conditions. These conditions are, in turn, necessary for the analysis of long-term heat-air and moisture responses in building envelopes performed for thermal and moisture design. The environmental boundary conditions generated are location-specific and for the expected usage of the building considered. Several approaches to characterize either the indoor or the outdoor environmental conditions are part of the program. The different approaches allow analysis of the environmental conditions that apply moisture and thermal loads on the particular envelope component being studied. Construction-dependent and independent methods for selecting the outdoor moisture reference years have been incorporated in the tool. The indoor environment, representing the expected usage of the building under consideration, is derived by two approaches for both controlled and uncontrolled indoor environments. One case study performed using WeatherSmart to select outdoor moisture reference is presented. The case study represents an example of how the weather analysis tool is used to identify the outdoor moisture reference year for a particular location.
Københavns Universitet Examining the Regional Aspect of Foreign Direct Investment to Developing Countries

This paper applies a general-to-speci c analysis to detect regularities in the driving forces of foreign direct investment (FDI) that can explain why some regions are more attractive to foreign investors than others. The results suggest that regional di¤erences in FDI inows to African, Asian and Latin American countries can be fully explained by structural characteristics rather than xed regional e¤ects. The implication of this nding is that countries that are lagging behind other developing countries in attracting foreign capital have the opportunity to implement policies aimed at improving the investment climate for foreign investors. This also means that there is no African bias. Among a large number of return and risk variables applied in the empirical literature, growth and ination turn out to be the only robust and signi cant FDI determinants across regions although the size of their impact varies.
Weak Amenability of Banach Algebras on Locally Compact Groups

Recent work by various authors has considered the implications of Banach algebra amenability for various algebras defined over locally compact groups, one of the basic tools being the fact that a continuous homomorphic image of an amenable algebra is again amenable. In the present paper we look at the consequences of weak amenability. Here the homomorphism property fails in general, however it remains true for suitable direct summands. It is this technique that we make much use of here. 1997 Academic Press
Micropropagation of Ornithogalum macula tum

Ornithogalum maculatum Jacq. was rapidly propagated in vitro from leaf tissue, provided the leaves were cut from donor plants of which the first florets had opened. The growth of cultures, consisting of callus, adventitious shoots and leaf sections, was stimulated by combinations of BA at 0,5-2,0 mg dm-3 and NAA at 0,01-2,0 mg dm-3 . The sucrose concentration affected the formation and growth of shoots and callus. At 30 g dm-3 sucrose, shoots developed roots and at 50-70 g dm-3 , bulblets with short leaves developed.
No Pain, No Gain: Work Demand, Work Effort, and Worker Health

We employ Danish worker-firm data to study the effect of rising workload on health. Using both within-job-spell regression analyses and cohort event studies, we show that increases in firm sales lead workers to log longer hours and experience higher probabilities of stress, depression, heart disease, and strokes, with more pronounced effects for high-risk groups such as older workers, job-strained workers, and those with long initial work hours. We calculate that the average worker's ex-ante welfare loss due to higher sickness rates accounts for nearly one quarter of her earnings gains from rising firm sales.
