Work Engagement and Innovative Work Behavior: Meta-Analysis Study

Work Engagement is referred to as the motivation employees have in involving and being enthusiastic about their work. An engaged employee will positively involve and strive to contribute to the organization through higher productivity, efficiency, and vast innovation. A motivational condition such as Work Engagement stimulates employee's positive thought-action, which then elevates their Innovative Work Behavior. Many previous studies examined the relationship between Work Engagement and Innovative Work Behavior with inconsistent results. This study aims to evaluate several research results quantitatively through a meta-analysis test related to the magnitude of the correlation between Work Engagement and Innovative Work Behavior. This study involved 26 journals with 26 correlation coefficients. The statistical test shows that Work Engagement and Innovative Work Behavior have a medium effect size correlation (r = 0.46 with 95% CI between 0.423-0.506). The heterogeneity of I2 = 90.2%, thus using a random-effect model. There was no publication bias (Egger bias, p = 0.23). Work Engagement has a medium to large correlation effect size with Innovative Work Behavior. The research results indicate that Work Engagement is not a dominant factor; other factors form Innovative Work Behavior.
Sedimentological and carbonate isotope signatures to identify fluvial processes and catchment changes in a supposed impact ejecta‐dammed lake (Miocene, Germany)

The identification and distinction of fluvial from lacustrine deposits and the recognition of catchment changes are crucial for the reconstruction of climate changes in terrestrial environments. The investigated drill core succession shows a general evolution from red–brown claystones to white–grey marlstones and microcrystalline limestones, which all have previously been considered as relict deposits of an impact ejecta‐dammed lake, falling within the mid‐Miocene Climate Transition. However, recent mammal biostratigraphic dating suggests a likely pre‐impact age. Indeed, no pebbles from impact ejecta have been detected; only local clasts of Mesozoic formations, in addition to rare Palaeozoic lydites from outside of the study area. Lithofacies analysis demonstrates only the absence of lacustrine criteria, except for one charophyte‐bearing mudstone. Instead, the succession is characterized by less diagnostic floodplain fines with palaeosols, palustrine limestones with root voids and intercalated thin sandstone beds. Carbonate isotope signatures of the mottled marlstones, palustrine limestones and mud‐supported conglomerates substantiate the interpretation of a fluvial setting. Low, invariant δ18Ocarb reflects a short water residence time and highly variable δ13Ccarb indicates a variable degree of pedogenesis. Carbonate 87Sr/86Sr ratios of the entire succession show a unidirectional trend from 0.7103 to 0.7112, indicating a change of the solute provenance from Triassic to Jurassic rocks, identical to the provenance trend from extraclasts. The increase in carbonate along the succession is therefore independent from climate changes but reflects a base‐level rise from the level of the siliciclastic Upper Triassic to the carbonate‐bearing Lower to Middle Jurassic bedrocks. This study demonstrates that, when information on sedimentary architecture is limited, a combination of facies criteria (i.e. presence or absence of specific sedimentary structures and diagnostic organisms), component provenance, and stable and radiogenic isotopes is required to unequivocally distinguish between lacustrine and fluvial sediments, and to disentangle regional geological effects in the catchment and climate influences.
Axisymmetric Stagnation Point Flow towards a Stretching Surface in the Presence of a Uniform Magnetic Field with Heat Generation

An analysis is made of the steady hydromagnetic laminar three dimensional stagnation point flow of an incompressible viscous fluid impinging on a permeable stretching surface with heat generation or absorption. A uniform magnetic field is applied normal to the plate which is maintained at a constant temperature. Numerical solution for the governing nonlinear momentum and energy equations is obtained. The effect of the strength of the uniform magnetic field, the surface stretching velocity, and the heat generation/absorption coefficient on both the flow and heat transfer is presented and discussed.
Effects of Slag Composition and Impurities of Alloys on the Inclusion Transformation during Industrial Ladle Furnace Refining

The inclusion of the MgO·Al2O3 (MA) spinel and CaO–Al2O3 are occasionally observed during the refining of Al–killed steel, even without the intentional additions of Ca and Mg. Many studies have focused on the source of Mg and Ca; however, especially for the formation of CaO–Al2O3–type inclusions, some recent results showed that Ca was difficult to dissolve from refining slag, even when the Al content in molten steel was high. To confirm these differences, industrial experiments were designed in this study, and the effects of the FeO and MnO contents, as well as the impurities of the alloying materials, were discussed. The results showed that, when the FeO and MnO contents in slag were high (about 10 mass%) at the start of LF (ladle furnace), all inclusions remained as Al2O3, despite alloying. Using the slag with low FeO + MnO content (<1~2 mass%), the Al2O3 inclusions changed to the MA spinel, but CaO–Al2O3 inclusions were not observed, indicating that CaO–Al2O3 inclusions were difficult to form by the steel/slag reactions under the current conditions. Only for the molten steel that contained a low level of dissolved oxygen and a large amount of Fe–Si, which contained Ca as the impurity was added, CaO–Al2O3 inclusions were generated.
Growing the Beautiful Anthropocene: Ethics of Care in East European Food Gardens

This study contributes to research proposing the ethics of care framework as a way of imagining a food system that cares for Others. We expand this exploration to the everyday practice of home gardening and the related social relationships and material flows. This area complements current scholarship, which mostly focuses on food-related care as a form of activism driven by intentionality and knowledge about the effects of consumption choices. Combining a survey of a representative sample of the population and an in-depth qualitative study, our paper highlights the importance of inconspicuous but materially significant food self-provisioning and sharing practices as caring behaviors that do not rely on educational campaigns but draw on the desire to produce healthy food for human Others. Home grown food is distributed in the generalized reciprocity mode within wide food-sharing networks. The desire to produce healthy food further translates into the adoption of caring methods of cultivation that benefit non-human Others involved in the garden ecosystems.
Wayfinding Behavior and Spatial Knowledge Acquisition: Are They the Same in Virtual Reality and in Real-World Environments?

Finding one’s way is a fundamental daily activity and has been widely studied in the field of geospatial cognition. Immersive virtual reality (iVR) techniques provide new approaches for investigating wayfinding behavior and spatial knowledge acquisition. It is currently unclear, however, how wayfinding behavior and spatial knowledge acquisition in iVR differ from those in real-world environments (REs). We conducted an RE wayfinding experiment with twenty-five participants who performed a series of tasks. We then conducted an iVR experiment using the same experimental design with forty participants who completed the same tasks. Participants’ eye movements were recorded in both experiments. In addition, verbal reports and postexperiment questionnaires were collected as supplementary data. The results revealed that individuals’ wayfinding performance is largely the same between the two environments, whereas their visual attention exhibited significant differences. Participants processed visual information more efficiently in RE but searched visual information more efficiently in iVR. For spatial knowledge acquisition, participants’ distance estimation was more accurate in iVR compared with RE. Participants’ direction estimation and sketch map results were not significantly different, however. This empirical evidence regarding the ecological validity of iVR might encourage further studies of the benefits of VR techniques in geospatial cognition research.
The Use of Slang on EFL Students’ Instagram Statuses

Slangs are commonly associated with informal ways of communication and used both in direct and indirect conversations, such as to communicate and express emotions on social media like Instagram. The question is how the use of slang may support and help improve students’ EFL learning through social media like Instagram. The purpose of this study was to investigate the types, social functions, and whether the use of slang on the students’ Instagram statuses contributed to their English language learning. This study was conducted using a descriptive qualitative design by employing 20 students who regularly posted statuses on Instagram at least once a week from January to March 2020 as participants. The data were collected through documentation and interview with the participants. The study found that the most widely used type of slang was an acronym constituted approximately 30%, and the pursuit of selfidentity was the most dominantly used social function of slang. The participants also perceived that they gained advantages through the use of slang on their Instagram statuses. Posting statuses and engaging in communication online through Instagram enabled the students to practice vocabularies they have learned and improved their writing skills. These findings show the usefulness of slang and social media in facilitating students’ EFL learning that needs to be considered by teachers for teaching English. Keywords—slang, instagram statuses, English as a Foreign

STUDY THE CURING KINETICS OF DGEBA WITH IMIDAZOLES AND PROPERTY-STRUCTURE RELATIONSHIPS

kinetics of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) using imidazole (H-MI) and 1-methyl imidazol (1-MI) as the curing agents and, (2) the study of some of the properties of the cured epoxy resins. The cure kinetics of DGEBA was studied using dynamic differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in various low concentrations (>0.5 mol%) of the curing agents. Kinetic analysis using integral procedure on dynamic DSC data indicates that both H-MI and 1-MI are effective curing agents. The curing reaction of DGEBA with H-MI took place almost 10C lower than the temperature of its curing reaction with 1-MI. Small low temperature shoulder peaks were observed for both curing systems and for all studied concentrations which are related to the formation of adduct. The formed adduct will initiate the etherification reaction which appears as a large high temperature exothermic peak in dynamic DSC thermogram. Water absorption, chemical resistance to acetone and sodium hydroxide solution, and thermal oxidation of the cured systems are also studied. The DGEBA/H-MI and DGEBA/1-MI cured systems indicated similar properties. Mousa Ghaemy* and Samaneh Sadjady
Effects of Cropland Expansion on Temperature Extremes in Western India from 1982 to 2015

India has experienced extensive land cover and land use change (LCLUC). However, there is still limited empirical research regarding the impact of LCLUC on climate extremes in India. Here, we applied statistical methods to assess how cropland expansion has influenced temperature extremes in India from 1982 to 2015 using a new land cover and land use dataset and ECMWF Reanalysis V5 (ERA5) climate data. Our results show that during the last 34 years, croplands in western India increased by ~33.7 percentage points. This cropland expansion shows a significantly negative impact on the maxima of daily maximum temperature (TXx), while its impacts on the maxima of daily minimum temperature and the minima of daily maximum and minimum temperature are limited. It is estimated that if cropland expansion had not taken place in western India over the 1982 to 2015 period, TXx would likely have increased by 0.74 (±0.64) °C. The negative impact of croplands on reducing the TXx extreme is likely due to evaporative cooling from intensified evapotranspiration associated with croplands, resulting in increased latent heat flux and decreased sensible heat flux. This study underscores the important influences of cropland expansion on temperature extremes and can be applicable to other geographic regions experiencing LCLUC.
An Analysis of hospital characteristics on lean and service quality

Purpose The purpose of this research is to explore the differences across hospital characteristics (i.e. lean maturity, hospital size, hospital type and ISO 9001) on lean expectation, lean performance, service quality expectation and service quality performance. Design/methodology/approach The survey instruments were developed from an extensive literature review, validated by experts and tested by statistical techniques. Data was collected from the perspective of care providers in 220 outpatient departments of Thai hospitals with multiple respondents to improve reliability of data. Analysis of variance and independent sample t test were applied for analysis. Findings It was found that there are significant differences across lean maturity and hospital size on overall lean expectation and overall lean performance, and across ISO 9001 on overall service quality performance. Overall, service quality expectation and performance have higher mean scores than overall lean expectation and performance. Originality/value To the best of author’s knowledge, this is one of the first studies to present insights into the links between Thai hospital characteristics, expected lean and service quality and performance from the care provider viewpoint. Findings form this study can be used to improve individual hospitals or develop healthcare system at national level.
Instructional reform and multiple institutional logics: insights from executive leadership in English Multi-Academy Trusts

ABSTRACT The systemic changes in the education policy landscape in England under the academies reform movement have nurtured a growing prevalence of educational organisations such as Multi-Academy Trusts (MATs) operating as meso-level institutional actors that shape the implementation of policies and mediate between social structures and individual contexts and environments. This paper presents findings from an analysis of instructional improvement efforts in two MATs drawing on data from interviews with 13 executives and school leaders. Insights from neo-institutional theory provide an important lens for examining the ways in which logics of state, market and community influence executive leaders’ decisions and practices towards system-wide instructional reform. Findings demonstrate the different ways in which executive leaders perceived these logics influencing their actions and how school leaders experienced the expectations from the executive leaders in the wake of multiple accountability demands. The contextual analysis of institutional logics provides new knowledge on the perceived impact of the macro level policy development and implementation at the meso- and micro-level structures, beliefs and practices revealing the complexity of instructional reform.
Marital Satisfaction in Individuals Who Remarry After Divorce

Every individual who enters married life certainly expects the presence of happiness in domestic life with the same person from beginning to end, one forever. Due to several different factors, in reality married life has its respective problems, so that family life cannot be compared with one another. However, due to several varied causes, not all couples were successful in resolving conflicts in their marriage, so that some married couples ended their marital conflicts with divorce. Hoping the divorce decision will end the conflict, Some individuals have high hopes that the disappointment in their previous marriage will be cured if after the divorce they will remarry with someone they think is better than their previous spouse. This study aims to determine the level of marital satisfaction in individuals who remarry given the high expectation brought to the next marriage after experiencing disappointment due to the failure of the previous marriage. The findings from this study are expected to be beneficial form of psychoeducation for the community, given the increasing phenomenon of divorce everywhere.
Evaluating the REP-S brief resilience intervention for students in higher education: a multi-study mixed-methods programme of research

ABSTRACT There is currently an unmet need in higher education for a structured, pre-emptive programme of support to help students enhance their resilience to stress. This article presents a mixed-methods evaluation of a transferable biopsychosocial resilience intervention for students – the Resilience Enhancement Programme for Students (REP-S). In Study 1, a randomised control trial showed that participating in the intervention was associated with significantly decreased perceived stress, decreased trait neuroticism and enhanced self-esteem over a period of one month. In Study 2, written and focus-group qualitative data from students provided evidence that the intervention led to perceived positive changes, including sleeping better, dealing more effectively with assessments and managing interpersonal challenges. Future steps in the evaluation of the REP-S are discussed.
A reconfigurable flexible fractal‐based monopole antenna for portable applications

Design of a fractal printed circuit antenna structure for portable applications is presented in this paper. The proposed antenna consisted of a modified Hilbert patch printed on a flexible polyamide substrate. The antenna is surrounded with a defected electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) open loop. A parametric study based a numerical analysis is invoked to refine the proposed antenna performance. The proposed antenna is fabricated on polymer substrate with dimensions of 50 × 60 × 0.3 mm3. The proposed antenna performance is tested experimentally and compared to the simulated results from a commercial software package based on Computer Simulation Technology Microwave Studio (CST MW). The experimental results are found to agree well with simulated results. It is found that the proposed antenna design suites the applications of the frequency bands of UHF and ISM portable systems. The antenna shows two bandwidths from 0.8 to 1 GHz and from 2.3 to 2.6 GHz with average gain of around 3.1 and 7 dBi, respectively. The antenna performances are conducted based on analytical and numerical simulations. The fabricated prototype performances are measured experimentally to show excellent agreement with the simulated results. Finally, it is found that the proposed antenna frequency resonance and bandwidth are insignificantly affected when mounted in close to the human body; therefore, it would be excellent candidate to be in use with biomedical applications.
Video-Hearings in Europe Before, During and After the COVID-19 Pandemic

While they were possible before in many countries, the COVID-19 crisis accelerated the use of remote- or video-hearings in courts in many European countries. It is unlikely that video-hearings will disappear with the end of the pandemic. Looking forward to the best possible use of remote hearings for the future, and to a new understanding how justice is done outside a physical courtroom, collecting and comparing the different legal frameworks and experiences in as many countries as possible can provide invaluable resources. This paper presents information on legal approaches and experiences provided by active and former members of the Council of Europe’s Consultative Council of European Judges (CCJE) from Albania, Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Romania, Russia, San Marino, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Ukraine and the United Kingdom who generously replied to a questionnaire sent out by the CCJE secretariat in December 2020 on my behalf. The paper addresses the legal framework, the technical side of video-hearings and different experiences and challenges. © 2021 The Author(s).

Effect of cooking methods on protein content and neurotoxin (β-ODAP) concentration in grass pea (Lathyrus sativus L.) grains

ABSTRACT Grass pea (Lathyrus sativus L.) is an important food legume crop but notorious for plant neurotoxin β-N-Oxalyl-L-α, β-diaminopropionic acid (β-ODAP), causing neurolathyrism to human and animals. The study aimed to compare changes in physical and chemical parameters of 13 genotypes of different geographic origins in pre & post-boiling, microwaving and autoclaving. The results showed significantly different effects of pre and post-cooking treatments on genotypes and cooking methods independent of one another. The genotypes from South Asia exhibited higher β-ODAP content compared to the genotypes from other region. Significantly negative correlation was noted between protein content and β-ODAP concentration across the treatments under boiling (r = −0.555**) and microwave (r = −0.342*) treatments. Boiling was the best treatment and significantly reduced β-ODAP concentration by 70%. Its reduction percentage remained 30%, and 14% under microwaving and autoclaving, in the same order. Therefore, boiling was recommended over other treatments for safe human consumption of grass pea seeds.
