IT Adaptation Patterns to Enterprise-wide Systems

The introduction of enterprise-wide systems requires users to simultaneously adjust to both the new system’s requirements and changes associated with modified business processes—an adaptation that often goes beyond conspicuous behavioral elements. Therefore, to investigate the underlying attributes that characterize user interaction with and adaptation to information technology (IT), we collected data from four organizations that had implemented enterprise-wide systems for at least three years prior to commencing fieldwork. By taking a grounded theory approach, we identify four distinct adaptation patterns: reluctant, compliant, faithful, and enthusiastic. These patterns represent configurations of five interrelated attributes that users espouse in their interaction with enterprise-wide systems: attitude towards the system, approach to learning how to use the system, level of interaction with the system, exploration of system features, and stance towards changing work practices. We propose an emergent, substantive theory of IT adaptation patterns that explains the intricate interplay of individual, task, and organizational initiatives in shaping these adaptation patterns.
Optimizing Spectral and Spatial Resolutions of Unmanned Aerial System Imaging Sensors for Monitoring Antarctic Vegetation

Antarctic moss communities, found in the spatially fragmented and fragile moss beds, can serve as indicators of the regional impacts of climate change. Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) carrying visible and near infrared (VNIR) sensors are a suitable nonintrusive mapping platform. UAS deployments in Antarctica are, due to weather and logistical restrictions, infrequent and short, thus it is essential that field time is optimized. This article identified the optimal spectral and spatial resolution of the UAS-based sensors to facilitate efficient data acquisition without jeopardizing the accuracy of remotely sensed moss health indicators. A hyperspectral line scanner was used to collect imagery of two moss study sites near the Casey Australian Antarctic base. The spectral and spatial data degradation simulated two lightweight sensors that could be used for more efficient spectral image acquisition in the future. These simulations revealed that the spectral quality deteriorated more definitively at the spatial resolution where moss spectra started to mix with spectra of surrounding rocks. Subsequently, random forest models (RFMs) were trained with lab measurements for predicting chlorophyll content and effective leaf density. The RFMs were applied to the UAS imagery of the reduced spectral and spatial resolutions to quantify decline in accuracy of both indicators. We identified the optimal UAS sensor capable of mapping a relatively large moss bed (∼5 ha) with the prediction accuracy similar to the hyperspectral system. This sensor would be a frame camera acquiring 25 VNIR spectral bands at a spatial resolution of 8 cm. This developed methodology has the potential to be adopted for other similar vegetation biophysical/chemical plant traits.
Prediction of Weinberg Angle in Discretized Kaluza-Klein Theory

In Discretized Kaluza-Klein theory (DKKT) the gauge fields emerge as components of gravity with a single coupling constant. Therefore, it provide a new approach to fix the parameters of the Standard Model, and in particular the Weinberg angle. We show that in our approach using DKKT, the predicted value of Weinberg angle is exactly the one measured in the electron-positron collider experiment at Q = 91.2 GeV/c. The result is compared with the one predicted the group theoretic methods.

HOW ETHICAL ARE EMOTIONALLY INTELLIGENCE PEOPLE?

Emotional intelligence has become an interesting discussion in organizational behavior field since it was introduced in 1989. A lot of researches have proven that this type of ability is important in shaping someone’s attitudes and behaviors. Nevertheless, only few studies have inquired the effect of emotional intelligence on how good or bad people’s attitudes and behavior. Thus, this research tried to find out the connection between emotional intelligence and morality. The participants of this research are 149 Management and Accounting program students of Economics and Business Faculty in Jenderal Soedirman University. More explanation about our result and implications are followed at the end of this article.
Placement of Distribution-Level Phasor Measurements for Topological Observability and Monitoring of Active Distribution Networks

This article presents a new method for the placement of distribution-level phasor measurement units (D-PMUs) in the active distribution networks (ADNs). The new objective function and constraints are proposed to ensure the minimization of capital cost as well the maximization of system observability, in the presence of distributed generations (DGs), zero injection buses (ZIBs), and tie-switches. The integer linear programming (ILP) is used to solve the framed objective function and the constraints. Furthermore, the accuracy of ADN state estimation (ADN-SE), in various system conditions, such as network reconfiguration, change in load demand, and measurement error degradation, is analyzed to check the impact of the proposed placement. The uncertainties caused by D-PMUs, DGs, and pseudomeasurements are considered well in ADN-SE using Monte Carlo simulations. The IEEE 69, 123, Indian 85, and UKGDS 95 bus distribution systems are used in the case studies.
La correspondencia morfológica tripartita del tipo zapatería, zapato, zapatero, según el modelo basado en esquemas de palabras

Usualmente, la formacion de palabras del tipo zapatero y zapateria se analiza mediante la postulacion de un par de sufijos que se agregan una base. De tal modo, se considera que los sufijos - ero y - eria son dos de los sufijos derivativos mas productivos del espanol. Sin embargo, este analisis morfologico basado en morfemas presenta algunas inconsistencias, como por ejemplo: diversas estructuras subyacentes, sufijos homonimos y polisemia extendida. En el presente articulo, parto desde la perspectiva morfologica basada en palabras para realizar un analisis funcional y esquematico de la formacion de palabras tripartita del tipo zapateria , zapato , zapatero . Se postula un solo esquema de formacion de palabras tripartito general, a saber: [‘dominio de x’ /Xeria/N]–[‘objeto manipulable x’ /X/N]–[‘instrumento para manipular x’ /Xero/N]. Se concluye que este esquema abarca un rango de formacion de palabras prominente cuyo alcance solo se puede determinar tras estudiar otros esquemas implicados, especificamente: [‘cualidad de x’/Xeria/N] y [‘relativo a x’/Xero/Adj]. Finalmente, se demuestra que con el analisis basado en esquemas de palabras se captura de manera empirica, eficaz e intuitiva, todas las dimensiones linguisticas que entran en juego en este tipo de formacion solidaria potencial.
A Graphical Design Approach for Two-Input Single-Output Systems Exploiting Plant/Controller Alignment: Design and Application

Due to the unique structure of two-input single-output (TISO) feedback systems, several closed-loop properties can be characterized using the concepts of plant and controller “directions” and “alignment. ” Poor plant/controller alignment indicates significant limitations in terms of closed-loop performance. In general, it is desirable to design a controller that is well aligned with the plant in order to minimize the size of the closed-loop sensitivity functions and closed-loop interactions. Although the concept of alignment can be a useful analysis tool for a given plant/controller pair, it is not obvious how a controller should be designed to achieve good alignment. We present a new controller design approach, based on the PQ method (Schroeck et al., 2001, “On Compensator Design for Linear Time invariant Dual-Input Single-Output Systems,” IEEE/ASME Trans. Mechatronics, 6(1), pp. 50–57), which explicitly incorporates knowledge of alignment into the design process. This is accomplished by providing graphical information about the alignment angle on the Bode plot of the PQ frequency response. We show the utility of this approach through a design example.
Farmers’ preferences for grassland restoration: Evidence from France

Grasslands are a crucial component of the agricultural landscape of most French regions. They contribute to human well-being through the provision of a wide range of ecosystem services such as ruminantfeeding. In this way, they have an impact upon the quality of animal production. Grasslands also support biodiversity conservation by promoting pollination, climate regulation, water quality regulation, landscape quality, etc. Despite these multiple benefits, grassland areas have been rapidly and constantly shrinking over the last 50 years in the face ofthe extension of forage corn considered a more profitable crop. Agri-environmental schemes (AES) have been identified to date as playing a pivotal role in the promotion of a more sustainable and environmentally friendly agricultural practices within the European Union. In this paper, through the application of the Choice Experiment (CE) method, we intend to analyze the factors that influence farmers’ preferences and motivations to join or not an AES involving grasslands restoration in Normandy. We estimate the relative weight of these factors, and we evaluate the willingness to accept changes related to each factor. In addition to the evaluation of the financial contribution, our objective lies in highlighting the role of the collective participation, the technical support and the area of the farm enrolled in the AES. Hence, our study contributes to a better understanding of factors that might alter famers’ behaviour towards new restoration practices. Potential policy implications that emerged from our data are briefly discussed.
Applying Action Research in a Mixed Methods Positive Body Image Program Assessment With Older Adults and People With Physical Disability and Chronic Illness

Action research is a methodology seldom used within both body image and mixed methods research. The current study is an application of action research to a 6-week mixed methods assessment of a positive body image program. Eighteen participants (14 women, 4 men) completed questionnaires pre–post intervention and at a 6-week follow-up. Sixteen participants completed individual interviews. Using mixed methods, participants’ positive body image was found to significantly improve and be sustained 6-weeks later. A multidimensional mixed methods research finding was an increase in participants’ positive body image and decrease in negative body image. This article highlights the versatility of mixed methods as it integrated well with an action research approach and fueled the interpretation of findings in a heterogeneous sample.
SHARED APERTURE MICROSTRIP PATCH ANTENNA ARRAY FOR L AND S-BANDS

A dual mode shared aperture antenna consisting of two planer arrays of ring antennas is designed for L and S bands. The array of larger dimension surrounds the array of smaller dimension. The antennas are isolated from one another and fed separately. The antenna dimensions are optimized and prototyped. The antennas radiate separately in L and S bands with least coupling or no coupling. Measured results are in agreement with the simulations, depicting good performance in terms of impedance bandwidth, isolation, and gain.
Short-Term Psychological Interventions on Economically Disadvantaged Families: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Purpose: To examine the effects of short-term psychological interventions on reducing family stress of economically disadvantaged families. Method: Systematic review and meta-analytic procedures were used to synthesize the results of randomized controlled studies published between 1980 and 2018. Results: The search yielded 8 studies that included results for 1,538 families in total. The risk of bias varied across studies. The meta-analysis results suggest a small positive effect (g = .38, p < .001) on child behavioral problems. Heterogeneity was relatively high and significant. We also found small to moderate effects on parenting stress, parental depression, and parenting quality (g ranging from .30 to .51). Discussion: The findings of this review suggest that short-term psychological interventions may reduce the family stress of economically disadvantaged families, with effect sizes that are comparable to those of interventions delivered to ordinary families. Implications for further research and practice are discussed.

Actions speak louder than words : the production and enactment effects on recall and recognition memory of verbs

This study aimed to investigate the effects of gestural and verbal production of single verbs on memory and expected to find that the physical embodiment of verbs via miming would significantly increase memory retention. It was also expected that gesturing verbs while speaking them aloud would lead to significantly more produced verbs being remembered than when they were only gestured. 12 participants (6 female; 1 left-handed) aged 18-27 were recruited from the University of Tasmania and via snowball sampling and were randomly assigned to either the gesture only group, or the gesture/spoken group, where they studied 80 verbs coloured blue or white which indicated whether to produce or silently read the words. Contrary to what was expected, there were no significant between subject effects, suggesting no benefit to vocalising verbs whilst performing them as gestures. However, there were extremely large within subject effects, suggesting that mimed performance of verbs significantly increases memory. These results suggest that the enactment of verbs leads to significant memory benefit, while the addition of speaking aloud verbs may not lead to any additional effect. However, further investigation is necessary to address the study’s limitations.

An efficient numerical method for the generalised Kolmogorov equation

ABSTRACT An efficient algorithm for computing the terms appearing in the Generalised Kolmogorov Equation (GKE) written for the indefinite plane channel flow is presented. The algorithm, which features three distinct strategies for parallel computing, is designed such that CPU and memory requirements are kept to a minimum, so that high-Re wall-bounded flows can be afforded. Computational efficiency is mainly achieved by leveraging the Parseval's theorem for the two homogeneous directions available in the plane channel geometry. A speedup of 3-4 orders of magnitude, depending on the problem size, is reported in comparison to a key implementation used in the literature. Validation of the code is demonstrated by computing the residual of the GKE, and example results are presented for channel flows at and , where for the first time they are observed in the whole four-dimensional domain. It is shown that the space and scale properties of the scale-energy fluxes change for increasing values of the Reynolds number. Among all scale-energy fluxes, the wall-normal flux is found to show the richest behaviour for increasing streamwise scales.
A 60 GHz Compact Multidirectional-Beam Antenna-in-Package for Mobile Devices

This letter proposes a new concept of a compact multidirection-beam antenna-in-package (AiP) for mobile devices. The AiP is the first integration of three vertically polarized millimeter-wave endfire horn antennas and a broadside horn antenna on a single substrate to cover four directions. The antennas are able to connect to radio frequency integrated circuits (RFICs) situated in the cavity at the backside of the substrate using bond wires. The size of the fabricated AiP is 6 mm × 6 mm × 1.5 mm (=1.2<italic>λ</italic><sub>0</sub> × 1.2<italic>λ</italic><sub>0</sub> × 0.3<italic>λ</italic><sub>0</sub>) including 0.3 mm thickness of RFICs. The impedance bandwidth (<inline-formula><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$| {{S_{11}}} | < - \text{15 dB}$</tex-math></inline-formula>) fully covers the 60 GHz band (57–66 GHz). The measured boresight gain of the endfire antenna and the broadside antenna is 5 dBi at 57 GHz and 6.3 dBi at 60 GHz, respectively.
A new circulation index for the detection of monsoon intensity

The Asian summer monsoon is characterized by the presence of a low‐level westerly jet stream (LLJ) in the lower troposphere and a tropical easterly jet stream (TEJ) in the upper troposphere. It is interesting to develop an index based on the vertical zonal wind shear and associated rainfall intensity over a monsoon region. The conventional method used to estimate wind shear takes the difference in wind speed between the zonal winds at 850 and 200 hPa. These two fixed levels do not represent the maximum wind speeds at these altitudes and therefore fail to obtain the maximum vertical wind shear. In this study, we propose a new index (the Shinu Mohan [SM] index) by defining the vertical zonal wind shear between the core heights of the low‐level jet stream in the lower troposphere and the TEJ in the upper troposphere, which represents the maximum zonal wind shear in a vertical column of the atmosphere over the summer monsoon region. The core heights of the LLJ and TEJ vary depending on the terrain and the strength of the monsoon circulation. The SM index provides precise vertical shear at each grid point and represents better spatial variability under different terrain conditions. Vertical shear plays a major role in convection and the production of rainfall over a region. Vertical wind shear during extreme monsoon events and the active and break spells of monsoons were analysed by using the SM index and conventional indices. It is interesting to note that the newly defined SM index gives a much better representation of the monsoon intensity compared to conventional indices.
PSYCHOLOGICAL BARRIERS IN THE ACQUISITION OF SECOND LANGUAGE: A NON-NATIVE PERSPECTIVE

Acquisition of second language (L2) learners especially non-native learners face several affective barriers. Affective barriers popularly known as psychological barriers pose a great obstacle potentially in the acquisition of second language. Anxiety, lack of confidence and limitation of adjustment to the changed environment make second language learners unnerving and ambivalent. Non-native learners feel shaky, overlapping and ambiguous in the perception and the production of second language. Likewise, teachers’ disinterest to promote learners rather positively enhances the scope of psychological crisis. Practically, learners do have a potential weakness on linguistic knowledge like four skills of English language and understanding the needs of students. The focus of this paper will be upon the identification of valid factors which in human psychology create obstruction to achieve mastery over language. In addition, realistic presentation of non-native learning context, affective conflict and constraints of motivation often lead to maximizing psychological barriers. In fact this paper will specifically deal with cross cultural viewpoints-native or non-native with analytic discussion.
Efetividade do fortalecimento excêntrico na prevenção de estiramento muscular dos isquiotibiais em jogadores de futebol

O presente estudo teve como objetivo realizar uma revisao narrativa da literatura com o intuito de verificar a efetividade do fortalecimento excentrico na prevencao de estiramento muscular dos isquiotibiais em jogadores de futebol. Para tanto, foram realizadas buscas de artigos nas bases de dados MEDLINE/PubMed, LILACS e SciELO nos idiomas Ingles e Portugues. Os termos utilizados foram: soccer, prevention e injuries bem como seus correlatos em Portugues. Para selecao dos estudos, eles deveriam: (a) ser ensaios clinicos; (b) ter como populacao de estudo os jogadores de futebol; (c) conter o treinamento de forca excentrico direcionado aos musculos isquiotibiais; (d) apresentar como desfecho ocorrencia/incidencia de lesoes isquiotibiais e a sua gravidade. A data de publicacao dos estudos nao foi delimitada. Foram selecionados cinco estudos (n=5) em um total de 121 dos encontrados. Os estudos revisados demonstraram que o fortalecimento excentrico reduziu a incidencia das lesoes por estiramentos isquiotibiais. Em relacao a efetividade desse fortalecimento sobre a gravidade, a maioria dos trabalhos (quatro deles) relatou nao haver diferenca estatisticamente significativa entre os grupos experimental e controle. No entanto, um estudo recente verificou diferencas substanciais entre os grupos pesquisados. Diante do exposto, os estudos analisados sugerem que a incorporacao de treinamentos de forca excentrica pode ser uma alternativa efetiva para reducao do numero de estiramento muscular dos isquiotibiais em jogadores de futebol. Torna-se tambem necessario que a prevencao seja pensada levando em conta a relacao entre as capacidades individuais do jogador e a demanda imposta a ele em sua pratica esportiva.
