THE EFFECT OF THE COMPANY'S LIFE CYCLE, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS ON PROFITS QUALITY AND THEIR IMPACT ON FIRM VALUE

This study aims to determine the effect of company's life cycle and related party transactions on earnings quality and its impact on firm value. This type of research is quantitative research. This study uses secondary data obtained from the Indonesian Stock Exchange (IDX) website. The sample for this research was 18 companies that carried out IPOs for the 2018-2021 period. This study used a purposive sampling technique as a sample selection. The analytical method of this study uses multiple linear regression analysis with Eviews 11 as an analytical tool. The results of study show company's life cycle affects earnings quality, while related party transactions do not affect earnings quality. The company's life cycle and related party transactions affect the f irm’s value. Earnings quality has a significant effect on firm value. Earnings quality is capable of mediating between the company's life cycle and related party transactions with firm value.
Facing Differences With an Open Mind: Openness to Experience, Salience of Intragroup Differences, and Performance of Diverse Work Groups

This study examined how the performance of diverse teams is affected by member openness to experience and the extent to which team reward structure emphasizes intragroup differences. Fifty-eight heterogeneous four-person teams engaged in an interactive task. Teams in which reward structure converged with diversity (i.e., “faultline” teams) performed more poorly than teams in which reward structure cut across differences between group members or pointed to a “superordinate identity. ” High openness to experience positively influenced teams in which differences were salient (i.e., faultline and “cross-categorized” teams) but not teams with a superordinate identity. This effect was mediated by information elaboration.
The Synthesis of Self-Efficacy of Academic Resilience Capacity (SEARC) as the Implication of Self-Efficacy Contribution to Student Academic

Many students in the educational process need more resilience. This research aims to determine the academic resilience of students' self-efficacy aspects, such as mastery experience, vicarious experience, social persuasion, and emotional state. It also aims to synthesize a framework for modifying students’ academic behavior, namely Self-Efficacy of Academic Resilience Capacity (SEARC). A quantitative approach with regression and literature analyses was used to develop a synthesis framework based on the field findings. The random sampling method was used to collect data on students' self-efficacy. The instrument used in this research was the Academic Self-Efficacy Scale (ASES) developed by Alfaiz with a 0.898 reliability. The collected data were analyzed descriptively and regression analysis was used to test the hypothesis. The results showed that mastery experience, vicarious experience, and emotional state significantly increase students’ resilience but social persuasion is insignificant when viewed partially. It implies that self-efficacy ability contributes to academic resilience.
ONE-SHOT NEURAL ARCHITECTURE SEARCH

Neural architecture search (NAS), or automated design of neural network models, remains a very challenging meta-learning problem. Several recent works (called “one-shot” approaches) have focused on dramatically reducing NAS running time by leveraging proxy models that still provide architectures with competitive performance. In our work, we propose a new meta-learning algorithm that we call CoNAS, or Compressive sensing-based Neural Architecture Search. Our approach merges ideas from one-shot approaches with iterative techniques for learning low-degree sparse Boolean polynomial functions. We validate our approach on several standard test datasets, discover novel architectures hitherto unreported, and achieve competitive (or better) results in both performance and search time compared to existing NAS approaches. Further, we support our algorithm with a theoretical analysis, providing upper bounds on the number of measurements needed to perform reliable meta-learning; to our knowledge, these analysis tools are novel to the NAS literature and may be of independent interest.
VALUES IN THE TIME OF CRISIS: ANALYSING POLITICAL VALUE CHANGE IN THE EUROPEAN UNION

The impact of crises on values is a topic which is frequently touched upon in political science, but rarely dealt with explicitly. This thesis aims to contribute to the discussion and help to bridge that gap, by taking both a theoretical and an empirical approach to the question of how crises impact values, looking especially at the European context during the period 2008-2018. This thesis has two fundamental aims: firstly, to develop a clear conceptualization of values as a distinct unit of analysis; and, secondly, to analyse how values change during crisis periods, by using European Values Study data. Through statistical analyses, it is tested whether values have changed significantly during the crisis period between Wave 4 and Wave 5, and whether this has had a particularly strong effect on in countries which can be categorised as under a higher level of ontological security threat.
For and against: Direct to consumer advertising is medicalising normal human experience: For.

# Direct to consumer advertising is medicalising normal human experience {#article-title-2} In direct to consumer advertising, drug companies target advertisements for prescription drugs directly at the public. Barbara Mintzes argues that this type of advertising risks medicalising normal human conditions, with the drug companies raking in increasingly healthy profits. Silvia N Bonaccorso and Jeffrey L Sturchio argue that, through advertising, drug companies can enable patients to make better informed choices about their health and treatment # For {#article-title-3} In October 2001, GlaxoSmithKline ran an advertisement in the New York Times Magazine for paroxetine (known as Paxil in the United States). A woman is walking on a crowded street, her face strained, in a crowd otherwise blurred. The headline reads, “Millions suffer from chronic anxiety. Millions could be helped by Paxil. ” No doubt many New Yorkers felt anxious in the aftermath of the attack on the World Trade Center, experiencing symptoms highlighted in the advertisement, such as worry, anxiety, or irritability. At what point does an understandable response to distressing life events become an indication for drug treatment—and a market opportunity? Kawachi and Conrad describe medicalisation as a “process by which non-medical problems become defined and treated as medical problems, usually in terms of illnesses and disorders,” decontextualizing human problems and turning attention from the social environment to the individual.1 They point out the negative consequences, chiefly the extension of the sick role and diversion from other solutions. Does direct to consumer advertising of prescription …
Assessment of prevalence, Risk factors and barriers of discussing female sexual dysfunction among women working in Assuit University

Background: Female sexual dysfunction is a fairly prevalent and generally disregarded problem in the general population. It is a multi-factorial phenomenon. Different personal, medical, obstetrical and environmental factors affect sexual function. Aims: Assess the prevalence and risk factors of Female sexual dysfunction and to identify the barriers perceived by women to initiate discussion of sexual dysfunction issues. Design: cross-sectional study design. Subjects: A stratified random sample consisted of (600) women at different work places in the Assuit university faculties such as (faculty of nursing, Arts, Medicine, Pharmacy, science, etc.,…), the whole number of women in these faculties are very large so, we was chose a stratified random sample about 5 %of each faculty. Tools: A structured questionnaire consist of two tools (female history, FSFI) Results: Over two thirds of the women in the study had female sexual dysfunction (69.0%). The most risk factors are age, hypertension, DM, FGM, vaginal delivery and operative vaginal delivery. Majority of women (87.83%) felt shame in discussing their sexual problem Conclusion: Female sexual dysfunction is extremely common in Assuit university faculties. And there are some risk factors for it as age, DM, hypertension, vaginal delivery. Shame was the first barrier perceived by women in discussing this problem with Health Care providers. Recommendations: Special attention is needed by the health care providers for pre-marital counseling about sexual health.
Islamic banking and finance: traders not mere financial intermediary

Although Islamic Banking and Finance has been in existence since 40 years ago, the subject of Islamic banking and finance continues to be at the forefront of economic and financial discourses all over the world. The issue of Islamic banking and finance losing its credibility, its apparent inability to respond decisively to the need of its clients and accusation that Islamic banking and finance is mere replication of the conventional system are but some of the pressing issues that need to be addressed before they can ruin the legitimacy of Islamic banking as a viable alternative system. Using qualitative research method by utilising document analysis, this paper attempts to critically investigate the role and function of Islamic banking and finance as a financial intermediary and trader in the course of discharging its fiduciary function as bank and financial institution. This article also addresses the major role of Islamic bank as a financial intermediary as well as at the same time trader of goods for sale to the customers. DOI: 10.5901/mjss.2015. v6n3p181
Liquidity and Market Efficiency: An Event Study

The inability of price to incorporate public information is a consequence of the illiquidity of price itself. This presupposition is predicated on a recurring event within the pharmaceutical sector of the stock market: the approval or denial of new drugs for commercial distribution. The Federal Drug Administration (FDA) either approves or denies new drugs based primarily on Phase III clinical trial results. These results are regularly disseminated as public information well prior to the FDA’s decision to approve or deny a new drug. Therefore, if the market is efficient, the FDA’s decision should already be incorporated in the price of the stock and expected returns ex-ante should not be abnormally positive or negative. However, this is not occurring within small-to-large cap pharmaceutical stocks because of a lack of liquidity indicated by large tick sizes and wide bid-ask spreads. In accordance with the Joint Hypothesis Problem, these small-to-large cap pharmaceutical stocks will be tested against a model of market equilibrium which will stand as all the other pharmaceutical stocks where this market inefficiency is not occurring, namely the liquid mega cap pharmaceutical stocks.
PROMOTING THE INTERNATIONALIZATION OF SMALL AND MEDIUM ENTERPRISES (SMEs): TOWARDS A SYSTEMATIC INTEGRATED POLICY MODEL

- One of the biggest challenges of promoting SMEs internationalization is the lack of systemic integration of meta, macro, meso and micro levels of policy. Fragmented, sectoral and allocative policy making is the basic policy barriers in SMEs internationalization process. This study proposes a systematic integrated policy model that is conceptually based on the systematic and integrated policy approach to two determinant factors: competitiveness and connectivity (network). It also attempts to figure out internationalization as a process commencing from the establishment of favorable preconditions stage to the strengthening stage. The conceptual model of systematic integrated policy in this study contributes to resolve inefficiency issue as the main gap in the existing strategic policy on SME internationalization in developing states; enhance integrative policy analysis literature and propose a more advanced integrated strategic policy for promoting the SMEs internationalization.
Three Roads to Quaternion Gravity

Three roads merge to create a different approach to gravity. Our deepest insights into nature use symmetries because symmetries remain unchanged. Using quaternion algebra instead of tensor calculus, the conservation of space-timestime is the symmetry underlying the quaternion gravity proposal for non-inertial observers in a gravitational field. Where there is a symmetry, there need also be a transformation law to detail how change is permitted to happen. The notion of relaxed relativity holds that in a gravitational field, one observer looking at another observer measuring the speed of light will find the product of wavelength and frequency differs from the speed of light c in a precise way (c′ = cγ esc ). Lorentz invariance remains for inertial observers, but non-inertial observers are governed by different symmetries. Gravity is different everywhere, so a field theory is also necessary using escape velocities. With some reasonable guesses constrained by observations, one can form a quaternion gravity proposal that is consistent with weak field gravity tests. No gravitons are required for this technical variant of special relativity. 1 Conserving Changes in Space-times-time The views of space and time which I wish to lay before you have sprung from the soil of experimental physics, and therein lies their strength. They are radical. Henceforth space by itself, and time by itself, are doomed to fade away into mere shadows, and only a kind of union of the two will preserve an independent reality. –Herman Minkowski, 1908[6] To enforce that prediction, I have made a study of writing physics equations in terms of the division algebra known as quaternions as a “kind of union of the two” (results at http://quaternions.com). [5] Such an approach builds into all subsequent operations the unification of space and time. Using quaternions to this extent makes me an honorary member of the Quaternion Society, a long disbanded group of as many as sixty mathematicians and physicists who worked for almost twenty years promoting the utility of quaternions at
An Analysis of the Determinants of Retail Capitalization Rates ∗

Despite an abundant literature on micro-and macroeconomic factors that inﬂuence capi-talization rates, little is known about tenant and location-speciﬁc risk pricing, especially for smaller, single-tenant commercial properties. This study examines the variation in cap rates for single tenant net lease (STNL) properties. We use a unique dataset of more than 8,200 single-tenant retail property transactions from 2005 to 2019 in the United States. We focus on quantifying the pricing of risk associated with tenant characteristics, including the listing status of the parent company, ownership structure, default risk, and industry type. Our results show that these tenant characteristics play an important role in explaining cap rate variations after controlling for a comprehensive list of macro-and micro-level determinants that have been previously documented in the extant literature
Dynamic CFD Modelling of Calcination in a Rotary Lime Kiln with an External Dryer

Mid-kiln ring formation is a problem in lime kilns, which may be related to the fluctuations of the position of the start of calcination. Therefore, a dynamic 2D axisymmetric CFD gas model with a methane burner implemented in ANSYS Fluent, coupled by mass and heat balances to a 1D bed model, is developed to calculate the fluctuations in bed and gas temperature profiles within a lime kiln with an external dryer. The dynamic model is used to calculate changes in the location at which calcination starts, with fluctuations in operational conditions using data from a pulp mill. The model simulates radiative, convective and conductive heat transfer between the gas, wall, and bed to determine the axial bed temperature in the kiln. The calcination reaction is described using a shrinking core model, that allows for the prediction of the location at which calcination begins and the degree of calcination achieved. The solid motion within the kiln is modelled using Kramer’s equation, modified for transient response. Steady-state and dynamic simulation results are compared to data from an industrial dry lime kiln, and good agreement is found. A sensitivity analysis is also presented, to obtain insight on how operating conditions and model variables impact the calcination location and degree of calcination. Of the variables examined, the fuel rate and the feed temperature have the largest impact on both the calcination location and degree of calcination in the kiln. Model predictions of a period of ring formation in the industrial kiln show that the start location of calcination fluctuates by more than 2 m on either side of the mean of regular operation, warranting further investigation of the importance of these fluctuations on mid-kiln ring formation.
The Long Term Benefits of Vaccination Campaigns: Evidence from Measles

We investigate the long term impacts of a reduction in measles stemming from a nationwide immunization program in Mexico. The vaccination program led to significant improvements in childhood health as measles causes “immune amnesia”, leaving infected individuals susceptible to illness from other diseases for several years. Using a differencein-differences strategy we find the measles vaccine led to large increases in educational attainment, employment, and income for men. The effects are two to ten times larger than in the U.S. This shows disease eradication can have a larger effect in middle income countries like Mexico with a greater disease burden and reduced health care access. The educational increases also are greater than for malaria and hookworm. This is attributed to the universality of measles as a childhood disease, and the widespread health improvements generated by the vaccine.
Türkiye’deki Yoğun Bakımlarda Potansiyel İlaç-ilaç Etkileşimlerinin Değerlendirilmesi: Nokta Prevalans Çalışması Potential Drug-drug Interactions in Intensive Care Units in Turkey: A Point Prevalence Study

Objective: Drug-drug interaction (DDI) is related with complications and diminished efficacy of medications throughout the treatment process. Intensive care units (ICU) involve patients who are at elevated risk of potential drug-drug interactions (pDDI). Materials and Methods: Here, we identified potential DDIs in similar patient groups in ICUs in Turkey. Invitations were sent to 20 hospitals in Turkey for a multicenter point prevalence study. Patient orders were determined for potential DDI using the Lexi Interact Online Interaction Checker software. Of 236 patients whose data were collected, patients <18 years of age, those <5 drugs in their drug order, and those with incomplete data were excluded. The remaining 194 patients were included in the study. Results: A total 684 pDDIs were detected, of which 92 (13.4%) were major, 531 (77.6%) were moderate, and 61 (9%) were minor interactions. There was at least one drug interaction in 159 (81.9%) patients. A notable disparity was observed in the quantity of drugs in the 159 patients with drug interactions and those in the 36 patients without drug interactions (p<0.001). A substantial correlation was detected between the quantity of medications and the incidence of interactions among patients experiencing drug interactions (p<0.001, r=0.707). Conclusion: No significant correlation was found between the length of stay in ICU and the number of drugs or the number of drug interactions (p=0.216, r=0.092; p=0.284, r=-0.080, respectively). The increased risk of pDDI due to the use of multiple drugs was observed in ICU patients.

Licochalcone A Inhibits Proliferation and Metastasis of Colon Cancer by Regulating miR-1270/ADAM9/Akt/NF-κB axis

Background: We aimed to explor the therapeutic effect and molecular mechanism of licochalcone A (LCA) on colon cancer. Methods: This study was carried out in 2020–2021 in Nanjing Tongren Hospital, China. Colon cancer HCT116 cells were treated with different concentrations of LCA. Cell counting kit-8, colony formation and flow cytometry assays were used to analyze cell viability, proliferation and apoptosis. Wound healing and transwell experiments were used to measure cell migration and invasion ability. The expression of ADAM9 and apoptosis-related proteins in different LCA treatment groups was detected by western blot. HCT116 cells were transfected with ADAM9 small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) or overexpression vectors. The database screened the upstream miRNA targeting ADAM9 and predicted the targeted binding site between miR-1270 and ADAM9, which was verified by a dual-luciferase reporter assay. Rescue experiments were performed to confirm the effects of the miR-1270/ADAM9 axis on cell proliferation and metastasis. Results: LCA decreased cell growth (P<0.05), migration (P<0.05), and invasion (P<0.05) of colon cancer cells and inhibited ADAM9 expression in a dose-dependent manner. LCA affected the functions of colon cancer cells by negatively regulating the expression of ADAM9. MiR-1270, increased by LCA, targeted and suppressed ADAM9 expression significantly (P<0.001). ADAM9 overexpression restrained miR-1270 mimic and LCA-induced changes in cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, and promoted apoptosis in HCT116 cells significantly (P<0.01). LCA and miR-1270 mimic inactivated the Akt/NF-κB pathway, while ADAM9 over-expression rescued it. Conclusion: LCA exhibited antitumor efficacy in HCT116 cells by inhibiting the Akt/NF-κB signaling pathway by regulating the miR-1270/ADAM9 axis.
