Programas de intervención para la enseñanza deportiva en el contexto escolar, PETB y PEAB: Estudio preliminar Intervention programs for sports education in the school context, PETB and PEAB: Preliminary study

Learning in sports has been one of the most common research topics in recent years in the field of sports pedagogy, and one of the areas that generated the biggest controversy is the comparison of different types of learning methodologies. In the absence of validated intervention programs designed in the basis of traditional and alternative paradigms of education, it is needed to address the validation of an intervention program positioned in two different methodologies for teaching a sport like basketball. The design of this research is instrumental. The validation process was performed by expert judgment, wherein 17 expert judges should attend from four to six predetermined selection criteria. For content validity the coefficient V Aiken was used. The reliability of the instrument was calculated using the Cronbach á. The intervention program is equivalent to each methodology, as well as the number of tasks, contents and practical situations. After analyzing the data, 38 of the 40 tasks that make up the intervention program exceeded the values required for validity (V> 0.70). Two tasks were created within traditional methodology and those suggested by the experts qualitatively changed. The reliability of the instrument was excellent with a value of . 96. The Traditional Teaching Program Basketball and Compressive Teaching Program Basketball instruments are valid and reliable, therefore it can be used to compare two models for teaching basketball in school.

PATBM Strategy for Reducing the Level of Violence Against Children (A Case Study in four Villages as Pilot Projects of PATBM in North Kalimantan, Indonesia)

PATBM strategy is the child protection movement being tested by the Indonesian government during 2016 in 136 villages nationwide. This strategy is conducted by moving the volunteers to those villages as the facilitators who work by bringing the mission of changing people's behavior in reducing the level of violence against children. This study was aimed to determine the effectiveness of the PATBM strategy, especially in the 4 villages as the pilot project in the province of North Kalimantan. Primary data collected was subsequently processed by using analytical tools SEM (Structural Equation Modeling). This research has resulted that PATBM strategy turned out the significant effect on the facilitators’ competence. Afterwards, it influences behavioral change as well as reduces the level of violence against children significantly. Indirectly, PATBM strategy variable through intervenning variable, namely; facilitators’ competence and behavioral change influences and significantly reduces the level of violence against children. The findings of this study can be used as the reference for the government in order to continue, replicate, and develop the program in other areas, so violence against children can be minimized Indonesia evenly.
Whom do people trust after a violent conflict? Experimental evidence from Maluku, Indonesia

 Abstract A long-standing – although not uncontested – view is that violent conflicts reduce average levels of trust. Other theoretical and empirical work emphasizes discriminatory effects, namely that conflicts may enhance in-group trust and erode out-group trust. The present study combines a trust game and a questionnaire to investigate the impact of direct and indirect conflict exposure on trust between Muslim and Christian students in post-conflict Maluku, Indonesia. Reduced average levels of trust are found for subjects who were indirectly exposed to the conflict. Discriminatory effects are related to direct exposure: Directly exposed subjects trust in-group members much more than out-group members. The rationale may be the following: Directly exposed subjects made negative experiences with out-group members, but also experienced solidarity within their group during the conflict. Indirectly exposed subjects, on the other hand, heard about negative experiences of others without being sufficiently involved to have made such distinct experiences with in-group and out-group members. Unable to distinguish friend from foe, they reduce trust toward Due to a low number of directly exposed subjects, this analysis includes a broader measure of direct exposure. Results are similar: The difference between in-group transfers of RPK 16.2 and out-group transfers of 7.9 (Mann-Whitney U-Test, z=-1.82, p=0.0688) shows that directly exposed subjects trust in-group members more than out-group members. The difference between transfers of RPK 16.2 to in-group members and 14.7 to neutral subjects on the right side is insignificant (z=-0.434, p=0.6645). Also, the difference between non-exposed in-group transfers of RPK 14.1 (left side) and RPK 16.2 for directly exposed in-group transfers (right side) is insignificant (z=-0.292, p=0.7706). Directly exposed subjects’ transfers (right side) to out-group members of RPK 7.9 are lower than transfers of RPK 14.7 to neutral subjects, but significance is weak (Mann-Whitney U-Test, z=-1.44, p=0.1498); when also including subjects that received ethnic information in the treatment neutral subject the difference is significant (z=2.176; p=0.0295). The difference between out-group transfers of RPK 15.0 of not directly exposed (red bar on the left side) and RPK 7.9 of directly exposed subjects (red bar on the right side) is significant (z=1.980, p=0.0477).
Intra- and inter-observer concordance of the stabilizing chains test and its relationships with measures on a force platform

Background: There are numerous manual tests that are part of the daily work of clinicians, in order to assist in the diagnosis to a subsequent therapeutic approach. Objectives: The stabilizing chains* test was chosen to study its intra- and inter-observer reproducibility in 24 children with 11 years old, and the possible relation with certain baropodometric variables. Methods: The test data were collected by 2 operators and the baropodometric variables by a force platform. Cohen’s Kappa coefficient and Student’s t-tests were performed. Results: The results showed a good kappa coefficient (0.497 - 0.746) in the intra-observer and poor to moderate in the inter-observer (0.083 - 0.438). There are also relationships to the weight percentage in the frontal and sagittal planes (p ≤ 0.05). Conclusion: These results give validity to use the test in daily practice. * The English denomination of the test is a literal translation of the French expression ‘chaines stabilisatrices’.
Export Behaviour of SMEs in the Swedish Computer Service Industry

Export participation of SMEs in Swedish computer services has increased rapidly over the last decade. Despite the increase, export participation rates of SMEs including micro enterprises remain rather low at 13 percent in 2010. Based on uniquely linked firm-level datasets with full coverage of micro enterprises and sole proprietors, this study investigates the determinants of export participation of Swedish SMEs in the computer service industry. Exports include both goods and services. Estimates based on the conditional logit model show a significantly positive relationship between initial labour productivity and the decision to export. An interesting and new finding is that the magnitude of the relationship between the probability to export and initial labour productivity is low once firm effects are controlled for. Surprisingly, the impact of labour productivity on exporting does not differ between micro enterprises and the remaining SMEs (10-249 employees). Furthermore, skill intensity is significantly related to the probability of exporting with low marginal effects. Overall, labour productivity and skill intensity only explain a small proportion of the export boom of Swedish software SMEs.
Differences in pollinator composition, species richness and flower visit abundance between Centaurea jacea (L.) and Leontodon hispidis (L.) in a meadow in Central Slovenia

In this pilot study, the differences in pollinator composition, species richness and pollinators’ visits between Centaurea jacea and Leontodon hispidis were investigated. For 15 minutes, the pollinators visiting the plants in a particular meadow were counted. There was a difference in composition. On C. jacea mostly Apis mellifera occurred, while L. hispidis was visited mainly by syrphids. Furthermore, due to the frequent visits by Apis mellifera, the abundance of pollinators on C. jacea was higher then on L. hispidis, while the evenness was higher in L. hispidis. The species richness did not differ between the plant species. The reasons for differences in pollinator visitation are discussed. Furthermore, it would be advisable to survey the differences in pollinator composition and abundance between similar plant species within the tribes/families of C. jacea and L. hispidis, for a better understanding of the pollinators’ choice for a plant species.
Introducing Latent Psychological Constructs in Injury Severity Modeling: Multivehicle and Multioccupant Approach

This paper presents a comprehensive model of injury severity that accounts for unmeasured driver behavior attributes. The results of the model have important implications for the design of safety interventions and advanced vehicular features and technologies. Engineering designs that accommodate the diminished capabilities of older drivers, that include rear-seat safety features, and that alert drivers to potential frontal collisions before they occur (collision warning systems and automated braking systems) would contribute to substantial reductions in injury severity for occupants of vehicles.
Particulate Characterization and Size Distribution in the Exhaust of a Gasoline Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition Engine

Agglomeration, coagulation, surface condensation, adsorption and oxidation processes are a part of particulate evolution process and lead to significant changes in characteristics of particulate matter (PM), when they enter the atmosphere. PM formation can be significantly reduced by advanced combustion concepts such as homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI). In the present study, experiments were performed in a modified gasoline fuelled HCCI engine at varying intake air temperatures (T_i), exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) rates and relative air-fuel ratios (λ). For particulate characterization, a partial flow dilution tunnel was used to collect particulate samples on a filter paper. These particulate samples were analysed for benzene soluble organic fraction (BSOF), trace metals, and particulate morphology using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Physical characterisation of particulates was done using engine exhaust particle sizer (EEPS), which measured the particle size-number distribution. In the experiments, higher PM was found for richer fuel-air mixtures and it further increased with application of EGR. Trace metals were found to be significantly lower for HCCI generated PM, which increased with increasing EGR. BSOF was negligible as compared to total PM which showed relatively lower toxicity of gasoline HCCI particulates. Total number of particles reduced with increasing λ, however particulate size-number distribution curve shifted away from accumulation mode, indicating that the particulate size decreased with increasing λ. Higher particle size-number distribution and particle size-mass distribution were observed for increasing T_i. Particulate surface area and volume also increased with increasing T_i and mixture strength.
Functional Analysis of Current and Noncurrent Balance Facilities of Iranian Export Development Bank

Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA) deals with associations between two sets of random variables. CCA for data that are essentially in the form of curves is different from those that are multivariate, due to infinite dimensionality of the spaces that the data belong to. The main purpose of this research is to explore and understand the correlation structure and relationship between current and noncurrent balance of facilities, given by the Export Development Bank of Iran. Although they can be treated as multivariate observations, it may cause some problems because of not considering the functional nature of the data. We explore the correlation patterns between the two variables by using functional canonical correlation (FCCA), and then model noncurrent balance of facilities based on current balance of facilities. The model can be used to predict the values of the former variable by using the latter one.
Store Loyalty, Retail Satisfaction and Competitive Resistance towards Purchase Intention

This paper explores the factors that influence the consumers' intentions towards purchasing behaviour. Specifically, the objective of this study is to determine the relationships between retail satisfaction, loyalty to the store and competitive resistance toward purchase intention among the staff of a university in the North of Malaysia. All variables were measured from developed instrument using 7-point interval scale. The exogenous variable are retail satisfactions (8 items), loyalty to the store (9 items) while endogenous variables are competitive resistance (2 items) and purchase intention (2 items). A total of 103 staffs, based on random sampling method selected from various age, gender, education and income, participated in this study. The instrument is validated using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) resulting in three similar components as the exogenous. The data was then analysed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The result shows that the goodness of fit indices of structural equation model are achieved at GFI=0.915, P-value=0.087, RMSEA=0.057 and ratio (cmin/df) =1.316. The finding supports one significant direct effect in the revised model, thus supporting the hypothesis regarding store loyalty is positively related to purchase intention (β=0.961, CR=3.578, p<0.001). The structural model explains 80.7 per cent variance in purchase intention. The result is discussed in the perspective of consumers' loyalty towards purchase intention.

Some data show that the effect of investment in Enterprise Information System (EIS) is not high enough in Japan compared with the levels in the United States and other Western countries. Moreover, Japan is facing major changes in the business and IT environments. With global business expansion, improving operational efficiency at the global level using information technology (IT) has become one of the most important issues for companies. The Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) packaged system, or ERP system is one of the options used for re-engineering global information systems in many countries. In this paper, the authors present results concerning the effect of implementation of ERP system. The analyses focused on the context of the global expansion of companies and the effects of customization of packaged software functions. Business Process Reengineering (BPR) issues when implementing ERP systems are also discussed in this paper, regarding cultural issues specific to Japanese companies.
Intraday evidence of the informational efficiency of the yen/dollar exchange rate

The informational efficiency of the yen/dollar exchange rate is investigated in five market segments within each business day from 1987 to 2007. Among the results, we first find that the daily exchange rate has a cointegrating relationship with the cumulative price change of the segment for which the London and New York (NY) markets are both open, but not with that of any other segments. Second, the cumulative price change of the London/NY segment is the most persistent among the five market segments in the medium and long run. These results suggest that the greatest concentration of informed traders is in the London/NY segment, where intraday transactions are the highest. This is consistent with the theoretical prediction by Admati and Pfleiderer (1988) that prices are more informative when trading volume is heavier.

The Mediational Role of Trust on the Relationship between Virtual Communication and Knowledge Sharing and the Initial Impact on ODI: A Quasi-experimental Study of the Thailand Appreciative Inquiry Network (AI Thailand)

This research aims to: (1) examine the relationship between virtual communication and knowledge sharing within the Thailand Appreciative Inquiry Network (AI Thailand) and the mediational role of trust in this relationship; (2) increase the frequency and quality of virtual communication between AI Thailand and members; (3) design and implement an appropriate Organizational Development Intervention (ODI); and (4) examine the impact of ODI on virtual communication, trust in organization and knowledge sharing in the focal organization. This action research was conducted with AI Thailand and recruited 40 participants who were students from Khon Kaen University. The ODI activities were new virtual communication tools (www.ailearningcircle. com), training and virtual activities that promote social interaction and virtual communication. The results show that : (1) there is a positive relationship between virtual communication and knowledge sharing after ODI; (2) trust does not mediate the relationship between virtual communication and knowledge sharing ; (3) the frequency and quality of virtual communication between AI Thailand and members improved after ODI; and that (4) the participants’ trust in the organization and knowledge sharing increased after ODI.
A Structural Health Monitoring System Based on an Analysis of Changes in the Static, Dynamic and Magnetic Properties of the Structure

The complexity and diversity of civil engineering structures imposes requirements on the diagnostic system, which are difficult to satisfy. In this paper the concept of a distributed diagnostic system capable of monitoring the technical state of critical elements of large infrastructure objects such as steel trusses, supermarket buildings, exposition halls, bridges etc. is discussed. The main difference compared to the structure and rules of a classical diagnostic system is the introduction and use of the mathematical model and the physical test objectives in the entire diagnostic process. The model is based on the analysis of the behaviour of a technical object and the physical phenomena associated with it. The current results show that taking into account necessary knowledge, it becomes possible to recognise the qualitative and quantitative changes in the signals generated by the object that are linked to the degradation processes.
Evolutionary features of 8K (KDa) silencing suppressor protein of Potato mop-top virus

The cysteine-rich 8K protein of Potato mop-top virus (PMTV) suppresses host RNA silencing. In this study, evolutionary analysis of 8K sequences of PMTV isolates was studied on the basis of nucleotide and amino acid sequences. Twenty-one positively selected sites were identified in 8K coding regions. Recombination events were found in the 8K of PMTV isolates with a rate of 1.8. Totally 30 haplotypes were detected with haplotype diversity ranging from 0.8 to 1.0 and nucleotide diversity from 7.58 to 13.62. The positions 33 and 30 indicated the highly positive and negative selection (with the highest and the lowest dN-dS values), respectively. Tajima’s D test suggested that 8K is evolving with a strong positive selection for worldwide isolates. High frequency of segregating sites was identified along 204 positions of 8K. Moreover, in this study, we used Shannon entropy-based approach to evaluate the variability of each site of nucleotide and corresponding amino acid. Based on Shannon entropy method, 139 and 97 nucleotide sites had the highest entropy value, while 47 and 33 amino acid sites showed the most diversity along 8K sequences. Our findings suggest that 8K as an RNA silencing suppressor evolves rapidly. Taken together, its variability might play a big threat to infect other plants or overcome resistant cultivars.
Environmental Performance and Financial Performance of Green Mutual Fund—Evidence from China

We compared the environmental performance and financial performance between green fund and non-green fund to explore the balance between environmental goals and financial objectives of green funds by in the context of China government’s strong advocacy of “developing green finance and setting up green development fund”. In this paper, the open-ended active fund with the shareholding ratio of over 75% is taken as the object of study. By the PSM method, 28 green funds are matched by 1:5 to obtain 140 non-green funds. Through the large sample data of 2010-2016, the results show that: 1) the green fund investment portfolio is cleaner than non-green fund. From the long-term environmental performance of the holding enterprises, the green and the non-green fund’s environmental performance and financial performance are tested empirically. Fund environmental performance is better than non-green fund. From the perspective of the short-term environmental performance of the holding enterprises, there is no difference between the environmental performance of the green fund and the non-green fund. 2) The excess return of the green fund is higher than that of the non-green fund. In the period of China’s economic transformation, green funds not only assume the responsibility of investing in environmental performance of enterprises, but also take into account its financial performance, to achieve a win-win result of low pollution and high yield.
