The Effects of Positive and Negative Mood on University Students' Learning and Academic Performance: Evidence from Indonesia

Recent empirical findings reveal the impact of positive mood on the performance of the students in processing information. Positive mood facilitates complex cognitive functions requiring flexibility, integration, and utilization of cognitive material such as memory, categorization, creative problem solving, decision-making and learning. This study extends the literature that has been done mostly in western societies by proposing a further linkage between positive and negative mood to students’ learning and the impact of that learning on student’s academic performance in Indonesian universities, which is rarely investigated in non-western societies. The data are collected by using questionnaires and a sample of 106 students who have mid-term examination (assessment) in their active academic semester. The result, based on analysis using structural equation modeling, indicates that the tested model has an acceptable fit. The findings also indicate that (1) positive mood has no influence on learning, (2) negative mood has negative influence on learning, and (3) learning has positive influence on student’s academic performance.
Entrepreneurial Motivations: What Do We Still Need to Know?

This paper attempts to renew interest in a line of research that largely has been ignored for two decades but which is critical to the study of entrepreneurial cognitions, intentions, and their conversion into entrepreneurial behaviors. That area is entrepreneurial motivation. This is not a comprehensive review of all areas of motivation research but rather a challenge a reinvigorate research efforts on an important aspect of the entrepreneurial process that has been examined only at the margins so far. It is an attempt to show how one very important topic, “entrepreneurial motivation,” still needs more study if we are to address the question of “have we learned anything at all about entrepreneurs? ”
ENVIRONMENTALLY ADJUSTED PRODUCTIVITY GROWTH OF INDONESIAN RICE PRODUCTION

Productivity of Indonesian rice agriculture needs to grow substantially to ensure national food security. However, the environmental cost should be taken into account. This study aims to analyse productivity growth of rice by decomposing it into technological change, scale effects, allocative efficiency and technical efficiency. Environmental cost associated with the use of environmentally detrimental inputs is internalised to obtain environmentally adjusted productivity growth. The result indicates that total factor productivity growth is driven by technological change and social efficiency effects. Environmentally adjusted productivity growth is less than conventional productivity growth. Some policies to increase the environmentally adjusted productivity growth are proposed.
Biotic and multi-scale abiotic controls of habitat quality: their effect on coral-reef fishes

The influence of habitat quality on a species' demographics is critical for understand- ing its ecology and effective conservation. However, quantifying habitat quality is problematic because it may comprise of abiotic components at different spatial scales and also be influenced by biotic processes. This study investigated the relationship between reef-associated Caribbean fishes and habitat quality at 2 spatial scales: (1) multiple characteristics of Montastraea annularis coral colonies (<1 m 2 ) and (2) coral density in a 5 × 5 m plot around each microhabitat. Further- more, the influence on habitat quality of 2 biotic factors (predation pressure and interactions between competitively superior territorial damselfishes and other species) was considered. A total of 102 M. annularis colonies within thirty 25 m 2 plots were surveyed on a Belizean forereef. Gen- eralised linear mixed-effect models demonstrated that both damselfishes and other reef - associated species were correlated with colony-scale habitat quality (more abundant on taller, refuge-rich colonies). Adult reef-associated species were also correlated with larger-scale habitat quality, being more abundant on colonies with high densities of other Montastraea colonies within 25 m 2 (probably higher quality home ranges). However, the presence of damselfishes was associ- ated with reduced abundances of other reef-associated species on M. annularis colonies, reflect- ing the importance of both biotic and abiotic controls of habitat quality. On reefs, coral mortality will reduce the density of optimal colonies and potentially increase the proportion occupied by damselfishes. This may lead to smaller populations of inferior competitors as they are increasingly displaced onto sub-optimal microhabitats.
Productivity of radish fertilized with different doses of bovine manure

The application of organic matter to the soil has considerable benefits for agricultural land, including an improvement in the physical structure and fertility of the soil, which can often be extended from one crop to another. Animal manure is one of the most widely-used types of organic fertilizer, due in part to its availability. The present study investigated the productivity of radish exposed to different doses of bovine manure. The research was conducted at the experimental area of the Nova Xavantina campus of Mato Grosso State University, in central Brazil, using the Apolo radish cultivar. The experimental design was based on the random distribution of plots, with five repetitions. Five treatments were applied, representing different doses of bovine manure: T1 = 0 t ha-1, T2 = 30 t ha-1, T3 = 50 t ha-1, T4 = 70 t ha-1, and T5 = 90 t ha-1. The 50 t ha-1 dosage performed best in terms of the productivity and quality of the Apolo radish cultivar under the conditions of the present experiment. Key words: Raphanus sativus L. , organic fertilizer, plant nutrition.
Measuring children activity repertoire: is the paediatric activity card sort a good tool for Brazilian therapists?/Medindo o repertório de atividades de crianças: paediatric activity card sort é uma boa ferramenta para terapeutas ocupacionais brasileiros?

Introduction: The primary Brazilian occupational therapists goal is to enable their clients to participate in the activities of everyday life. Thus, it is important that therapists have tools that capture their clients’ activities repertoires. The Paediatric Activity Card Sort (PACS) is a client-centred tool designed to capture the activity repertoire of children. However, the PACS is based on the activities of Canadian children, leading to questions regarding its use in other countries. Objective: To determine the acceptability and applicability of the PACS with Brazilian children. Method: Sixty children between 5 and 14 years participated in a descriptive cross-sectional study. A questionnaire was used to gather sociodemographic information. Behavioural observations were used to judge the acceptability of the PACS. Item responses and their relation to sociodemographic variables were used to examine applicability. Descriptive statistics were used to describe demographics and item responses. Differences in the PACS scores between gender, race, presence of siblings, parents educational levels and marital status were assessed using non-parametric statistics. Results: Reported participation in PACS activities ranged from 95.7% (personal care) to 15.1% (sports). Eleven PACS activities had a participation rate of less than 10% and a number of new activities, not included in the PACS, were identified. Differences were found among gender and presence of siblings. Conclusion: With adjustments for the Brazilian context the PACS can be a useful tool to capture children activity suggesting the potential usefulness of a Brazilian PACS.
Cooling Effect of Shaded Open Spaces on Long-term Outdoor Comfort by Evaluation of UTCI Index in two Universities of Tehran.

Environmental matters are more complicated. Sustainability of environment requires an integrated approach to decisions making, planning, and management. Therefore, there is a need for a professional and systematic environmental management approach to reducing the consumption of resources. This approach is generally lacking in most universities, and therefore achievement of sustainability becomes much more difficult. This paper focuses on the comparative study of the effects of the sky view factor (SVF) on mean radiant temperature (Tmrt) and the thermal indices derived from these parameters in two different universities in Tehran: IUST and University of Amir-Kabir. The outdoor thermal conditions of these campuses because of different levels of greenery in spring and summer create different conditions in terms of thermal comfort or thermal stress. In this paper, environmental data by the experimental approach(field measurment) and they were analyzed by statical manner. The authors calculated UTCI by the UTCI calculator as thermal stress in the spring and summer of 2015. Subsequently, by decreasing the sky view factor by a value of 0.4 (increasing the shaded spaces), the mean radiant temperature will decrease by 3.04°C. These changes of Tmrt effect on the reduction of UTCI values. Comparison of UTCI index in two campuses illustrate that on average, there is a 1.28°C difference on the UTCI index and in September the IUST campus is 2.72°C cooler on the UTCI scale. The results of this study give correct guidelines to designers to create much more shaded open spaces to reach sustainable environment in universities.
Evolution over time of the Milky Way's disc shape

Context. Galactic structure studies can be used as a path to constrain the scenario of formation and evolution of our Galaxy. The dependence with the age of stellar population parameters would be linked with the history of star formation and dynamical evolution. Aims. We aim to investigate the structures of the outer Galaxy, such as the scale length, disc truncation, warp and flare of the thin disc and study their dependence with age by using 2MASS data and a population synthesis model (the so-called Besan\c{c}on Galaxy Model). Methods. We have used a genetic algorithm to adjust the parameters on the observed colour-magnitude diagrams at longitudes 80 deg <= l <= 280 deg for |b| <= 5.5 deg. We explored parameter degeneracies and uncertainties. Results. We identify a clear dependence of the thin disc scale length, warp and flare shapes with age. The scale length is found to vary between 3.8 kpc for the youngest to about 2 kpc for the oldest. The warp shows a complex structure, clearly asymmetrical with a node angle changing with age from approximately 165 deg for old stars to 195 deg for young stars. The outer disc is also flaring with a scale height that varies by a factor of two between the solar neighbourhood and a Galactocentric distance of 12 kpc. Conclusions. We conclude that the thin disc scale length is in good agreement with the inside-out formation scenario and that the outer disc is not in dynamical equilibrium. The warp deformation with time may provide some clues to its origin.
Long-wavelength variations in Earth’s geoid: physical models and dynamical implications

The seismic velocity anomalies resolved by seismic tomography are associated with variations in density that lead to convective flow and to dynamically maintained topography at the Earth’s surface, the core-mantle boundary (CMB), and any interior chemical boundaries that might exist. The dynamic topography resulting from a given density field is very sensitive to viscosity structure and to chemical stratification. The mass anomalies resulting from dynamic topography have a major effect on the geoid, which places strong constraints on mantle structure. Almost 90% of the observed geoid can be explained by density anomalies inferred from tomography and a model of subducted slabs, along with the resulting dynamic topography predicted for an Earth model with a low-viscosity asthenosphere (ca. 1020 Pa s) overlying a moderate viscosity (ca. 1022.5 Pa s) lower mantle. This viscosity stratification would lead to rapid mixing in the asthenosphere, with little mixing in the lower mantle. Chemically stratified models can also explain the geoid, but they predict hundreds of kilometres of dynamic topography at the 670 km discontinuity, a prediction currently unsupported by observation. A low-viscosity or chemically distinct D" layer tends to decouple CMB topography from convective circulation in the overlying mantle. Dynamic topography at the surface should result in long-term changes in eustatic sea level.
CERME 6 - PLENARY 2 Mathematics education as a network of social practices

Summary. Based on an analysis of mathematics education research as an academic field and on current social, political and economic transformations in many European countries, I would argue for the need to rethink and enlarge definitions and views of mathematics education as a scientific field of study in order to provide better understandings and alternatives for practice in the teaching and learning of mathematics today. I will explore the notion of the “network of mathematics education practices” as a complex, multi-layered space of social practice where the meanings of the teaching and learning of mathematics are constituted. I will illustrate the potentiality of this notion to envision possible research paths in the field. I will illustrate these with the research that my colleagues and I have been carrying on multicultural classrooms in Denmark; as well as will offer examples of other research studies in Europe and other parts of the world where I see that the discipline is gaining newer insights that could allow attending to the social changes and
EFFECT OF HIGHER SALINITIES ON GROWTH AND SURVIVAL OF PACIFIC WHITE SHRIMP (LITOPENAEUS VANNAMEI)

The growth and survival of Litopenaeus vannamei post larvae was measured in controlled different salinities condition 35ppt (T1), 40ppt (T2), 45ppt (T3) and 50ppt (T4) were maintained. Group of Shrimp post larvae (weight 0.032 g Â± 0.002) were stocked at a density of 35 nos. /aquarium in above salinity ranges. Animals were fed with commercial feed (35% Crude Protein) @ 5% of body weight four times a day. The results indicate that higher SGR was observed in T2 (1.99Â±0.08) followed by T1 (1.75Â±0.07), T3 (1.54Â±0.06) and T4 (1.49Â±0.17). Highest survival (100 %) was recorded in T1 followed by T2 (96.42%), T3 (94.99%) and T4 (74.21%). From the results of the present study it could be seen that higher salinity significantly reduced the growth and survival of L. vannamei but will also open study area of physiological adaption of animal at higher saline water in performance of organisms.
Effective Schools: A Brief Review after Forty Years

April 2013 marks the 30 th anniversary of “A Nation at Risk,” and its counterpart the forty year old Effective School Movement. Alison DeNisco (2013) implies that little has changed since the beginning. Quoting from the U.S. Department of Education’s Equity and Excellence Commission’s report (2013) she stated that after pushing three decades of education reform little has changed for the American student. With this ominous comment let us go back to the beginning and see where we started and where we are now. Has thirty years of Effective School Reform actually worked?
Inertially induced cyclic solutions in thin-film free-surface flows

Abstract New mechanisms are discovered regarding the effects of inertia in the transient Moffatt–Pukhnachov problem (J. Méc., vol. 187, 1977, pp. 651–673) on the evolution of the free surface of a viscous film coating the exterior of a rotating horizontal cylinder. Assuming two-dimensional evolution of the film thickness (i.e. neglecting variation in the axial direction), a multiple-timescale procedure is used to obtain explicitly parameterized high-order asymptotic approximations of solutions of the spatio-temporal evolution equation. Novel, hitherto-unexplained transitions from stability to instability are observed as inertia is increased. In particular, a critical Reynolds number $\def \xmlpi #1{}\def \mathsfbi #1{\boldsymbol {\mathsf {#1}}}\let \le =\leqslant \let \leq =\leqslant \let \ge =\geqslant \let \geq =\geqslant \def \Pr {\mathit {Pr}}\def \Fr {\mathit {Fr}}\def \Rey {\mathit {Re}}\mathit{Re}_c$ is predicted at which occurs a supercritical pitchfork bifurcation in wave amplitude that is fully explained by the new asymptotic theory. For $\mathit{Re}<\mathit{Re}_c$ , free-surface profiles converge algebraically-cum-exponentially to a steady state and, for $\mathit{Re}> \mathit{Re}_c$ , stable temporally periodic solutions with leading-order amplitudes proportional to $(\mathit{Re}-\mathit{Re}_c)^{1/2}$ are found, i.e. in the régime in which previous related literature predicts exponentially divergent instability. For $\mathit{Re}=\mathit{Re}_c$ , stable solutions are found that decay algebraically to a steady state. A model solution is proposed that not only captures qualitatively the interaction between fundamental and higher-order wave modes but also offers an explanation for the formation of the lobes observed in Moffatt’s original experiments. All asymptotic theory is convincingly corroborated by numerical integrations that are spectrally accurate in space and eighth/ninth-order accurate in time.
A new score to predict outcome after liver transplantation

Background: An ideal liver allocation system should reduce waitlist mortality and also improve post-transplant survival. Aim: To identify a new scoring system that predicts recipient survival at 3 months following liver transplantation (LT) in the Romanian program. Methods: We included into analysis 242 adult patients (183 patients within the training set and 59 in the validation cohort) with liver cirrhosis consecutively transplanted between January 2012 and June 2014. Results: Post-transplant overall survival was 84.2% at 3 months. Independent risk factors for survival following LT were: recipient age >53 years (p=0.01), serum albumin <2.7g/dl (p=0.02), diabetes mellitus (p=0.14), hyponatremia <130mmol/L, presence of non-malignant portal vein thrombosis (p=0.01), retransplantation (p=0.0005) and donor resuscitation following cardiac arrest (p=0.03). AUROC of RoSOFT score is 0.86 in both training and validation set. Diagnostic accuracy of RoSOFT for predicting 3 months mortality is 89.6%. Recipients with HCC outside Milan criteria had a significantly lower MELD score at LT compared to patients inside Milan (p=0.008) and received a higher proportion of marginal organs (p=0.005), but survival did not differ (p=0.47). Conclusions: Combined recipient and donor risk factors can accurately predict 3-months survival following LT in our National LT Program and can be used to improve donorrecipient matching.
Intermediate asymptotics for critical and supercritical aggregation equations and Patlak-Keller-Segel models

We examine the long-term asymptotic behavior of dissipating solutions to aggregation equations and Patlak-Keller-Segel models with degenerate power-law and linear diffusion. The purpose of this work is to identify when solutions decay to the self-similar spreading solutions of the homogeneous diffusion equations. Combined with strong decay estimates, entropy-entropy dissipation methods provide a natural solution to this question and make it possible to derive quantitative convergence rates in $L^1$. The estimated rate depends only on the nonlinearity of the diffusion and the strength of the interaction kernel at long range.
Fungal event and palynological record of ecological crisis and recovery across the Permian-Triassic boundary

The end of the Permian Period was marked by the most severe mass extinction in the geologic record. Detailed quantitative study of pollen and spores from shallow-marine deposits spanning the Permian-Triassic (P-Tr) boundary in Israel reveals a sequence of palynological-ecological stages reflecting a major crisis among land plants. The disappearance of the gymnosperm-dominated palynoflora of the Late Permian Lueckisporites virkkiae Zone is recorded at a claystone horizon containing almost exclusively abundant fungal remains and carbonized terrestrial plant debris. This ‘‘fungal spike’’ is followed by a zone dominated by marine acritarchs and a succession showing ecological recovery with abundantlycopodsporesandeventualreappearanceofbisaccategymnospermpolleninthe EarlyTriassic.ThelatestPermianproliferationoffungiisrecognizableworldwideandcan be correlated with other paleontological and geochemical markers of a global ecological disaster.
Leadership styles in organizations during harsh economic environments

This study seeks to add to the knowledge gap on leadership styles in organizations under harsh economic environments by assessing the leadership styles of senior managers and chief executive officers in the private and public sectors and to correlate the organizational performance to the styles. A survey research design using self-administered questionnaires was used in this study. Questionnaires (150) were sent out to the major companies throughout Zimbabwe targeting senior managers and chief executive officers. Convenient sampling and snowball sampling were used to identify the organizations used in the study. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 16.0 and MINITAB statistical package were used for analyzing data. Transactional leadership style was the dominant style in both the private and public sectors in the time of economic uncertainty. Contrary to widely held views, the private sector managers excelled on transactional leadership style compared to their counter parts in the public sector. The results suggest that during hard times or in economic crisis, leadership styles may change to suit the environment. In particular, transactional leadership style becomes a dominant style if organizations are to succeed in the maintenance of high standards of performance and retention of skills. In times of crisis, both transformational and transactional leadership styles are important for the survival of organizations. Although leadership styles have been studied in different organizations, information on studies in the public sector has lagged behind. The study described in the study is the first to consider leadership styles in the two sectors under harsh economic conditions (highest recorded inflation). As such, this study gives insight to managers and chief executive officers on how to keep performance high. Key words: Transformational leadership, transactional leadership, public sector, harsh economic conditions
