The Role of Psychological Empowerment Mediation and Organizational Commitment to Influence Transformational Leadership on Nurse Performance (Study at The Countermeasures Referral Hospital Certain Emerging Infectious Diseases in Bali)

Nurses who work during the pandemic have a high risk of exposure to the Covid-19 disease. The professional obligations of nurses that must be carried out during the pandemic have caused many nurses to have concerns about work and have an impact on their performance. This study aims to be able to analyze the role of psychological empowerment mediation and organizational commitment on the influence of transformational leadership on the performance of nurses in the isolation room of a referral hospital for the management of certain emerging infectious diseases in Bali. The sample of this study was 199 respondents from 396 nurses who worked in the isolation treatment room of a referral hospital to manage certain emerging infectious diseases in Bali. The sampling technique used is incidental sampling. This study uses a quantitative approach associative of causality with the dissemination of google form questionnaires analyzed using SmartPLS. The results of the study prove that (1) transformational leadership does not have a direct effect on nurse performance, (2) transformational leadership has a positive and significant effect on psychological empowerment, (3) transformational leadership has a positive and significant effect on organizational commitment, (4) psychological empowerment has a positive effect. and significant effect on nurse performance, (5) organizational commitment has a positive and significant effect on nurse performance, (6) psychological empowerment fully mediates positively and significantly influences transformational leadership on nurse performance, (7) organizational commitment fully mediates positively and significantly influences transformational leadership on nurse performance. Organizational commitment has a stronger mediating role than psychological empowerment on the influence of transformational leadership on nurse performance. This research implies that nurses' performance improvement can be done with transformational leadership which is able to make nurses have high organizational commitment and psychological empowerment.
Relationship Between Alexithymia Regulation and Independent Living Readiness among Incarcerated Adolescents

Little is known about how effectively incarcerated adolescents in Malaysia are prepared for an independent life upon their release from incarceration. One of the constructs that may play an important role in this issue is alexithymia regulation. Thus, this study is designed to examine the relationship between alexithymia regulation and readiness for independent living. In line with the study objectives, a two-stage cluster sampling method was used by this cross-sectional study in selecting the respondents from selected Sekolah Tunas Bakti in Peninsular Malaysia. A total of 255 questionnaires were distributed to incarcerated adolescents aged 12 to 18 years old. The findings revealed that the alexithymia regulation may not be as prevalent among incarcerated adolescents with a coefficient β value of (r = - .430, p > 0.05). Nevertheless, there is a general lack of concern and the ability to portray feelings in several approaches. These capacities are thought to lay the reason for alexithymia regulation and the structure of healthy relational relationships. Likewise, a fundamental understanding of the readiness for independent living among incarcerated adolescents can be utilized as a source of output for the policymakers to provide a supportive environment for these incarcerated adolescents, especially in the Malaysian context.
Determinants of English Language Proficiency: A Multifaceted Analysis

This study investigates the determinants of English language proficiency among students at Panyapiwat Institute of Management (PIM) in accordance with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) standards. The determinant factors under examination encompass students' attitudes, prior English language knowledge, information-seeking behavior, satisfaction with English language learning, teachers' expertise, teacher readiness, teaching methodologies, familial support, environmental factors, and international exposure. Data were gathered through a survey administered to 469 PIM students, and the analysis employed Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling. The findings revealed that five significant factors influence PIM students' English proficiency, namely their prior English language knowledge, inclination toward seeking knowledge, teachers' expertise, classroom environment, and practical language usage experiences. Additionally, the research demonstrated a noteworthy impact of students' Grade Point Average (GPA) and the time dedicated to learning English on their CEFR scores. This study contributes to the field by shedding light on the multifaceted factors influencing English language proficiency among PIM students, offering insights that can inform language education strategies and policies. It emphasizes the importance of prior knowledge, information-seeking behavior, teacher quality, classroom environment, and practical language application in enhancing English language skills.

Subjective Experiences of Bipolar Patients in The Residual or Remitted Phase

Disorder; COFL: Cognitive abstract Aim: Patients with bipolar disorder often experience subtle impairment in residual or remitted phase although they do not show florid mood or psychotic symptom any more. This study investigated subjective experiences of bipolar patients during residual or remitted state. Methods: Sixty patients (29 males, 31 females) who were determined to be in remission or residual state from the acute phase were included in this study. All patients were assessed in two dimensions: subjective experiences and objective experiences. Subjective experiences were measured with the Korean version of the Frankfurter Beschwerde-Fragebogen (K-FBF) and Symptom Check List 90-R (SCL-90-R). Objective psychopathology was measured with the Positive and Negative Symptoms Scale (PANSS), Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS), and Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS). We then examined the relationship between subjective experiences and objective psychopathology. Results: A longer was significantly with lower K-FBF and subjective Conclusion: It is
Integrated Weed Management in Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Wasp.) under Rainfed Conditions

Pulses are an integral part of many diets across the globe and they have great potential to improve human health, conserve our soils, protect the environment and contribute to global food security. The United Nations, declared 2016 as “International Year of Pulses” (IYP). India is the largest producer (25% of global production), consumer (27% of world consumption) and importer (14%) of pulses in the world. Pulses account for around 20 per cent of the area under food grains and contribute around 7-10 per cent of the total food grains production in the country (Mohanty and Satyasa, 2015). Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.)) cultivated around the world primarily for seed, but also as a vegetable (for leafy greens, green pods, fresh shelled green peas, and shelled dried peas), as cover crop and for fodder Andargie et al., (2011). It is one of the important kharif pulse crop grown in the India for grain, forage, and green manure purpose and commonly known as lobia. Cowpea is also called vegetable meat because of it rich in protein 19-26 % (average 22.5 %), carbohydrate 60.3 %, minerals and vitamins.

Intraovarian platelet-rich plasma injection in poor responders

Objective: To evaluate if it possible to improve ovarian reserve parameters and oocyte retrieval in poor responders who undergo intraovarian injection of platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Design: Prospective cohort study. We included 148 poor responders who underwent PRP injection between October 2021 and December 2022 in our institution, comparing pre and post PRP ovarian function. In addition, the IVF outcomes of a subgroup of patients was studied after the intervention in contrast with the previous treatment. Results: An improvement in ovarian reserve was observed in relation to previous values: FSH (13,57 vs. 11,32, p=0,11), AMH (0,39 vs. 0,48, p=0,06), antral follicle count (3,98 vs. 5,75, p<0,001); as well as a higher number of oocytes retrieved (2,63 vs. 3,65, p=0,01) and produced embryos (1,64 vs. 2,22, p=0,03); without a great impact on pregnancy rates. Conclusions: Although experimental, intraovarian PRP could restore ovarian function and be postulated as an alternative to oocyte donation in patients with low ovarian reserve who do not accept this treatment. There is a lack of randomized controlled trials to support these findings.
Analysis Role of Exchange Rate, BI Seven Days Rate, Inflation and Gold Price on Return of ISSI (Indeks Saham Syariah Indonesia)

The aim of the researchers to be achieved in this study, is to test and analyze the short-term effect of the inflation rate, the rupiah exchange rate, world gold prices, and interest rates on ISSI returns. Test and analyze the long-term effect of the inflation rate, the rupiah exchange rate, world gold prices, and interest rates on ISSI returns. Data analysis was carried out using the EVIEWS 10 application or program, because the author uses time series data. With good performance for analyzing time series data, the authors prefer to use this program, compared to SPSS. ECM testing is carried out when there is an indication of a long-term relationship using the Cointegration test. In order to conclude that a data is cointegrated, each variable must be stationary in a similar or the same order. Based on the discussion of the research results, it can be concluded that in the short term, there is only one variable that has a significant influence on the return of the Indonesian Sharia Stock Index (ISSI). The variable is the rupiah exchange rate. Meanwhile, the other three variables, namely inflation, world gold prices, and interest rates have no significant effect on ISSI returns. Meanwhile, in the long term, there are three variables that have a significant influence on ISSI returns. The three variables include the rupiah exchange rate, world gold prices, and interest rates. Meanwhile, the inflation variable in the long term also does not have a significant effect on ISSI returns.
ON THE PROSODIC CUES OF VERBAL IRONY IN A SITUATION COMEDY

Irony is defined as an instrument used by the speaker to communicate the opposite of real message they intend to convey. However, a number of studies agree in considering irony an attitude related to the need of protecting the personal image of the speaker. To date, relatively few studies have focused on the acoustic analysis of verbal irony. Nasal articulation, exaggerated stressed syllables, heightened intensity, slow speech rate, syllable lengthening (extra-long pauses) and heightened pitch variation are some of the prosodic patterns of ironic speech identified so far. In some cases, verbal irony presents a reduced pitch range and it is perceived as flat. With specific reference to Italian, there is currently little available research on the acoustic properties of verbal irony. Our study aims to investigate the strategies adopted by speakers to convey sarcasm in terms of prosody, specifically we focused on a famous Italian sit-com. Sui tratti prosodici dell’ironia verbale in una sit-com L’ironia è definita come uno strumento utilizzato dal parlante per comunicare il contrario del reale messaggio che intende trasmettere. Tuttavia, diversi studi concordano nel considerare l’ironia un atteggiamento legato alla necessità di proteggere l’immagine personale del parlante. Ad oggi, relativamente pochi studi si sono concentrati sull’analisi acustica dell’ironia verbale. L’articolazione nasale, l’esagerazione delle sillabe sottolineate, l’aumento dell’intensità, la lentezza del discorso, l’allungamento delle sillabe (pause extra-lunghe) e l’accentuata variazione dell’intonazione sono alcuni dei modelli prosodici del discorso ironico identificati finora. In alcuni casi, l’ironia verbale presenta una gamma di intonazione ridotta e viene percepita come piatta. Con specifico riferimento all’italiano, le ricerche disponibili sull’acustica dell’ironia verbale sono fino ad oggi poche. Il nostro studio si propone di indagare le strategie adottate dai parlanti per trasmettere il sarcasmo in termini di prosodia; in particolare ci siamo concentrati sull’analisi di una famosa sit-com italiana.

Analyzing the Effects of Maker Spaces and 3D Printing Technology on Student Innovation and Design Thinking

Arbitration as a dispute resolution has been recognized and accommodated in Indonesian positive law. Against international arbitral awards that are requested for enforcement in Indonesia, there is an obstacle regarding the refusal of execution of the award based on the violation of the principle of public policy. The limitative definition in the 1958 New York Convention and no further regulation of the principle of public policy provide uncertainty to the execution of international arbitration awards in Indonesia. The type of research used in this legal writing is normative legal research. Research that is evaluative research. The approaches used include a statutory approach, case approach, and conceptual approach. The technique of collecting legal materials is done through literature study using deductive legal logic. The results show that although there is no unity of meaning regarding the principle of public policy, every country definitely needs an emergency brake to protect national interests called the term public policy.

Predictive Factors Associated With Survival in Periampullary Cancers Following Pancreaticoduodenectomy: A Retrospective Analysis

Background Periampullary cancers arise from four different anatomical sites and are in close proximity. But they have different survival outcomes. There are various clinicopathological factors associated with survival after pancreaticoduodenectomy done for periampullary cancers. So, we aimed to identify the predictive factors associated with poor survival in periampullary cancers at Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital, Kathmandu, Nepal. Methods We analyzed the medical records of patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) at Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital, Kathmandu, from April 2004 to May 2014. Demography, clinicopathological features, and survival outcomes were analyzed retrospectively. Results This study included 61 patients. The mean age of patients was 56.2 ± 14.2 years, and there was a male preponderance (M:F = 1.4). The median survival of all patients was 24 months. Non-pancreatic periampullary cancer patients had better median survival as compared to pancreatic cancer patients (24 vs. 8 months, p = 0.03). The presence of lymphovascular invasion (LVI), peripheral invasion (PNI), nodal involvement, and a higher lymph node ratio (LNR) were associated with poor median survival. However, perineural invasion was the only factor associated with poor survival in multivariate analysis. Conclusion The presence of perineural invasion is associated with poor survival outcomes in patients with periampullary cancer following pancreaticoduodenectomy. Also, carcinoma of the head of the pancreas has poor survival as compared to other periampullary cancers.
Lipid droplet formation is spatiotemporally regulated in oocytes during follicular development in mice

Communication between oocytes and the surrounding granulosa cells during follicular development is essential for complete oocyte growth. Oocytes contain lipid droplets (LDs), organelles assembled in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) that store neutral lipids, including triglycerides and cholesterol esters. Although the LD content varies among animals, LDs stored in oocytes have been shown to play an important role in oocyte maturation and preimplantation embryonic development. However, knowledge is lacking regarding how and when LDs are initially produced in developing oocytes within follicles. In the present study, we found that LDs appeared in mouse oocytes in a specific phase during follicular development. The emergence of LDs in intrafollicular oocytes was induced within a similar time window in vitro and in vivo. Fluorescence imaging and electron microscopy revealed that LDs emerging in oocytes during the early stages of follicular growth were in close proximity to the ER. Furthermore, fatty-acid-tracking experiments have revealed that exogenous fatty acids are rapidly incorporated into oocytes, and their uptake is regulated by the interaction between oocytes and granulosa cells, likely in part through transzonal projections. In summary, our results suggest that LD synthesis observed in growing oocytes is spatiotemporally regulated and that oocyte–granulosa cell contact may be involved in LD biosynthesis during follicular development.
Creativity Development of Secondary School Students Using Four Thinking Activities Blended Inquiry-Based Learning

Creative thinking is more than just thinking; it is a practical ability based on knowledge and experience that allows a person to accomplish things better. The objectives of this research were to design science learning activities and promote the creativity of eighth-grade students who received four thinking activities with inquiry-based learning to pass the 70% requirement and to examine the satisfaction of grade 8 students toward blended learning management of four thinking activities with inquiry-based learning. A total of 31 eighth-grade secondary school students at a public school in Northeast Thailand were selected using purposive sampling in the first semester of 2022. The research tools were seven learning management plans using four thinking activities combined with inquiry-based learning on the topic of the human body, a creativity test, and a satisfaction questionnaire. The statistics used were mean, standard deviation, and percentage. The findings revealed that combining learning management with inquiry-based learning resulted in the development of learning activities. The average score for creativity was 16 (80%), from a total of 20 points. The standard deviation was 1.54, which passed the requirement of 70%. Students were satisfied with the four thinking activities and inquiry-based learning, with a mean value of 4.39, representing a high level of satisfaction. Keywords: four thinking activities, inquiry-based learning, creativity, science learning activities, action research

Image Based Model for Document Search and Re-ranking

Traditional Web search engines do not use the images in the web pages to search relevant documents for a given query. Instead, they are typically operated by computing a measure of agreement between the keywords provided by the user and only the text portion of each web page. This project describes whether the image content appearing in a Web page can be used to enhance the semantic description of Web page and accordingly improve the performance of a keyword-based search engine. A Web-scalable system is presented in such a way that exploits a pure text-based search engine that finds an initial set of candidate documents as per given query. Then, by using visual information extracted from the images contained in the pages, the candidate set will be re-ranked. The computational efficiency of traditional text-based search engines will be maintained by the resulting system with only a small additional storage cost that will be needed to predetermine the visual information.
Guarantees of Origin and Competition in the Spot Electricity Market

In Europe, renewable energy producers can sell Guarantees of Origin (GOs) to consumers who wish to declare their electricity consumption as “green”. We show how the introduction of the GO market can increase competition and reduce prices in the electricity market. In the current market design, the trade of GOs is not restricted by the transmission capacity for electricity. Because the production capacity of GOs is limited by the dispatch of electricity, suppliers have incentives to compete more fiercely in the electricity market. This effect disappears if the transmission capacity is also imposed on the GO market
