Agility in Interior Architecture: An investigation through Prototypical Design for Interactive Spatial Dynamics
Authors:   , Rowan Patrick
Published: December 2021

This paper identifies and discusses designing interior building dynamics that, through user interaction, can be physically manipulated and maneuvered to suit a changing situation in spatial requirements/preferences. Designers have partially realised this architectural vision through both mobile and dynamic interior elements, and relocatable construction systems. Here lies the potential for a digitally manufactured modular system for spatial dynamics, providing interactive interior architecture with embedded spatial fluidity. Providing occupants of these interior spaces with the capacity to determine the spatial conditions how and when they require. Leveraging modern digital fabrication techniques like CNC timber milling and consideration of factors such as assembly/disassembly, this thesis explores ideas of tactility and kinetics of interior space and how the user interactions can exact spatial change. This research develops a modular tectonic language, with low operational - mechanical and construction - complexity. A manipulatable interior tectonic such as this would be possible to complement existing structures or other fixed designed architectural elements to provide an enhanced level of building function through a immediately influenceable spatial conditions. The research undertaken explores a series of experimental modular prototypes, each a unique response for spatial dynamics.
Learning through Play: An Interplay between Early Childhood Teachers' Beliefs and Practices in Aotearoa-New Zealand
Authors:   , James Matthew
Published: December 2021

This study explores teacher conceptions of play and its relationship to children’s learning. It also explores how this influenced the role teachers took during play and the way they approached assessment. This case study research involved three teachers across three early childhood education centres in Wellington, New Zealand. Data drawn on included teacher interviews, observations, document, and field notes. Piaget’s (1973) and Vygotsky’s (1978) Constructivist theories of learning through play provided the theoretical framework informing both data collection and analysis. Findings suggested that teachers held various conceptions about how learning through play could be practiced and how children learn. These beliefs and assumptions were further influenced by an ad hoc range of contextual factors, including the children’s ages, differing centre philosophies and goals. Teachers revealed that the professional development they had been able to access concerning learning through play and assessment had been limited, largely relying on professional development provided by their own centre, discussions with their head teacher, peers, and their own initiative and understanding. This research suggests there is a need to provide ongoing professional development to assist teachers to engage with the place of learning in play-based activities; strategies to assess learning during play activities; and effective documentation. This might help teachers work through the complex and sometimes contradictory ideas about play and children’s learning they encountered and the inconsistencies there were at times between their espoused beliefs and practices.
Electrostatic images and T-matrices for simple geometries
Authors:   , Majic Matt
Published: December 2021

This thesis is concerned with electrostatic boundary problems and how their solutions behave depending on the chosen basis of harmonic functions and the location of the fundamental singularities of the potential.  The first part deals with the method of images for simple geometries where the exact nature of the image/fundamental singularity is unknown; essentially a study of analytic continuation for Laplace's equation in 3 dimensions. For the sphere, spheroid and cylinder, new deductions are made on the location of the images of point charges and their linear or surface charge densities, by using different harmonic series solutions that reveal the image.  The second part looks for analytic expressions for the T-matrix for electromagnetic scattering of simple objects in the low frequency limit. In this formalism the incident and scattered fields are expanded on an orthogonal basis such as spherical harmonics, and the T-matrix is the transformation between the coefficients of these series, providing the general solution of any electromagnetic scattering problem by a given particle at a given wavelength. For the spheroid, bispherical system and torus, the natural basis of harmonic functions for the geometry of the scatterer are used to determine T-matrix expressed in that basis, which is then transformed onto a basis of canonical spherical harmonics via the linear relationships between different bases of harmonic functions.
Understanding the Expertise Required by Law Enforcement Investigating Cybercrime: An Exploration of Social Engineering Techniques
Authors:   , Nock Grace
Published: December 2021

Cybercrime represents a significant threat for the 21st century, a threat that traditional methods of policing cannot adequately manage. Consequently, new ways of policing utilising specialised teams have been implemented to address cybercrime proactively. One method of policing that has been relatively unexplored within academic literature is covert online investigations, wherein law enforcement creates false identities to interact with offenders from. Existing research has not comprehensively explored what tactics, techniques, and procedures law enforcement use when conducting these investigations. Accordingly, selection and training of employees presents unique challenges. Therefore, this study aims to provide a detailed evaluation of what skills are needed by law enforcement. This information can then inform future training and selection. This study examines in-depth semi-structured interviews with eight New Zealand Police investigators using Applied Cognitive Task Analysis. Data was analysed using thematic analysis. Results revealed three themes with 18 sub-themes. The first theme explored operational pre-planning, the second theme explored social engineering techniques used to gather information, and the third theme explored the wide-ranging external considerations. Finally, the discussion outlines the implications for theories of social engineering, applications for law enforcement training and recruitment, and potential future research opportunities within social engineering and police psychology.
Gender and Verse: Religion in New Zealand Women's Poetry, 1970-2019
Authors:   , Long Vida
Published: December 2021

This thesis explores the remarkable, surprising and enduring presence of religion within the writings of New Zealand women poets since the 1970s. Analysing a comprehensive range of poems, I argue that religion is a dynamic and compelling feature of women’s poetry, emerging in a number of distinctive forms and tones. Using a thematic analysis, I explore religion in relation to domesticities, body and flesh, and whenua/land. I show that women poets deploy and rework religious ideas in ways that illuminate their gendered perspectives and experiences. Arguing that religion should be brought back into the centre of the scholarly analysis of New Zealand literature, I advance a fresh approach to the concept of religion. This framework acknowledges the interdependence and mutual imbrication of ‘religion’ and the ‘secular’, and also facilitates attention to ‘spirituality’. This expansive framework affords careful investigation into the interrelationships between all three of these modern categories. Having shown that religion permeates New Zealand women’s poetry and that attending to religion’s presence is vital for interpretation, I argue for a bona fide cross- disciplinary conversation between religious studies and literary studies; a revitalised investigation on ‘religion and literature’ will be productive for both fields.
"I See God Out the Back of My Farm" Exploring Christianity and Sustainability on NZ Farms
Authors:   , Koon Kelly
Published: December 2021

This thesis explores the relationship between Christianity and sustainability within the context of rural New Zealand meat and dairy farmers. Looking at the various definitions of sustainability that were given through my fieldwork in the Waikato and Nelson/Golden Bay areas, I describe the contested, ambiguous, and diverse understandings of sustainability that farmers employ. Within this contestation, I explain how Christianity plays a vital role in farming practices and beliefs. Using in-depth case study analysis, I explore the textured and nuanced ways that farmers engage, critique and support sustainability on their farms. Questions of sustainability are explored through farmers’ descriptions of their relationships with both their land and surrounding communities.

Published: December 2021

La epidemia del Virus de Inmunodeficiencia Humana (VIH) no es un fenómeno actual, sino que viene desde hace ya varios años, específicamente desde la década de los 80, cuando se detectaron los primeros casos en seres humanos. Desde entonces se calcula que 79.3 millones de personas contrajeron el virus desde que comenzó la epidemia. El VIH es el virus que causa el Síndrome de Inmunodeficiencia Adquirida (SIDA). Cuando una persona se infecta con VIH, el virus ataca y debilita al sistema inmunitario. A medida que el sistema inmunitario se debilita, la persona está en riesgo de contraer infecciones y cánceres que pueden ser mortales. El tratamiento del VIH implica tomar medicamentos que reducen la cantidad de virus que hay en el cuerpo. Estos medicamentos se llaman terapia antirretroviral (TAR). No hay ninguna cura eficaz para la infección por el VIH, pero con la atención médica adecuada, puede ser controlada. Una persona puede reducir el riesgo de infección limitando su exposición a los factores de riesgo y tomando medidas preventivas como el uso de preservativos masculinos y femeninos, pruebas de detección y asesoramiento en relación con el VIH y las ITS, uso de antirretrovíricos a modo de prevención, reducción de daños en los consumidores de drogas inyectables, eliminación de la transmisión del VIH de la madre al niño, entre otras. El enfoque general del presente trabajo es abordar los aspectos más relevantes de la Infección por Virus de Inmunodeficiencia Humana (VIH). Los resultados se obtuvieron mediante el desarrollo de una investigación de tipo bibliográfica, delimitada a una metodología de revisión, que permite concluir que la infección por VIH continúa siendo un problema de salud pública de primer orden en el mundo, tanto por su magnitud y evolución temporal como por sus consecuencias sanitarias, sociales y económicas. Por ello es tan importante el diagnóstico y tratamiento precoces, que son la estrategia preventiva más eficiente.

Published: December 2021

La enfermedad del coronavirus o COVID-19, fue oficialmente declarada como una pandemia por la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) el 11 de marzo del 2020. Las tasas de letalidad se estiman entre 1% y 3%, afectando principalmente a los adultos mayores y a aquellos con comorbilidades, como hipertensión, diabetes, enfermedad cardiovascular y cáncer. La vigilancia intensa es vital para evitar la mayor propagación del virus, y el aislamiento sigue siendo el medio más efectivo para bloquear la transmisión. La Organización Panamericana de la Salud (OPS) indica que si bien todos están el riesgo de contraer COVID-19, las personas mayores tienen mayor probabilidad de enfermar gravemente si se infectan. El aislamiento social, aunque es una estrategia importante para luchar contra este virus, también ocasiona una serie de consecuencias negativas en la población mayor de 60 años, quienes pueden presentar un aumento de niveles de ansiedad, depresión, trastorno obsesivo compulsivo y hostilidad durante la cuarentena. El enfoque general del presente trabajo es abordar el afrontamiento de la cuarentena y el distanciamiento social durante la pandemia por COVID-19 en los adultos mayores de 60 años. Los resultados se obtuvieron mediante el desarrollo de una investigación de tipo bibliográfica, delimitada a una metodología de revisión, que permite concluir que es necesario implementar medidas como uso de la tecnología para la comunicación y estilos de vida saludable, con el fin de contrarrestar las consecuencias negativas ocasionadas por la cuarentena y distanciamiento. Por su parte los sistemas de salud deben enfocarse en la equidad y en alcanzar los grupos de riesgo como los pacientes de la tercera edad, quienes se ha demostrado, tienen mayor probabilidad de hospitalización y mortalidad por este virus.
Rozwój morskiej energetyki wiatrowej w Polsce – uwagi na tle gospodarczego prawa środowiska
Authors: Bojar-Fijałkowski Tomasz
Published: December 2021

Zmiany klimatyczne stawiają nowe wyzwania przed światem. Unia Europejska, dzięki wysokim standardom w zakresie redukcji emisji spalin, zielonych technologii i innowacji, należy do grona najaktywniejszych graczy w działaniach na rzecz klimatu. Standardy Unii Europejskiej wymagają od władz krajowych dużego zaangażowania. Aby sprostać ambitnym celom wskazanym w Europejskim Zielonym Ładzie, Polska musi nadrobić zaległości i zaniedbania w obszarze odnawialnych źródeł energii. Możliwość taką daje morska energetyka wiatrowa.

Tekst niniejszy jest poświęcony analizie korelacji między Europejskim Zielonym Ładem a projektami rozwoju farm wiatraków na polskiej części Morza Bałtyckiego. Ma on na celu wskazanie brakującej legislacji oraz ocenę istniejącej. Autor podejmuje w nim próbę wskazania zależności między ogólną doktryną polityczną Unii Europejskiej w zakresie środowiska a prawem regulującym szereg obszarów działalności gospodarczej. Dodatkowym wątkiem przy odpowiedzi na takie pytanie jest ewentualny wpływ na tenże proces pandemii SARS-CoV-2. Analiza dogmatyczno-prawna, zastosowana wobec aktualnie obowiązujących regulacji dla pełniejszego zrozumienia wymaga także zastosowania metody historyczno-prawnej wobec regulacji wcześniejszych. Ich wspólne zastosowanie pozwoli bowiem wskazać, w jakim obszarze nowe prawo, dedykowane realizacji Europejskiego Zielonego Ładu, na płaszczyźnie krajowej, jest szczególnie potrzebne.

Poczyniona analiza prowadzi do wniosków oraz postulatów de lege ferenda, m.in. w zakresie wpływu Europejskiego Zielonego Ładu na szereg gałęzi prawa i wiele obszarów aktywności gospodarczej. Działania te przyspiesza dodatkowo pandemia SARS-CoV-2 i chęć synergii działań na rzecz klimatu z pobudzeniem i odbudową gospodarki. Kluczowe miejsce pośród instrumentów realizacji powyższych założeń zajmuje energetyka odnawialna, która w Polsce była w ostatnich latach mocno zaniedbywana. Stąd aby spróbować osiągnąć ambitne cele wskazane przez Unię Europejską, konieczne jest podjęcie działań także w obszarze morskiej energetyki wiatrowej. Kluczowe dla powstania i rozwoju w Polsce morskiej energetyki wiatrowej będą regulacje określające zasady i warunki przygotowania oraz realizacji inwestycji, tak jak i mechanizmy oraz instrumenty wspierające wytwarzanie energii elektrycznej w morskich farmach wiatrowych.

Published: December 2021

In order to explore a safe, effective way to use sludge as agricultural fertilizer it is necessary to effectively separate and remove the heavy metals embedded in sludge. In the study, the ozone-electric two-stage treatment was used to transform heavy metal copper in the sludge, and then the treated sludge was used for maize production and the transferring of Cu in cultivation medium and plants, and the enrichment effect of Cu in plant were investigated. According to composition of culture substance, five treatments were set in maize planting experiments: CK, Agricultural soil without addition; T1, Agricultural soil supplemented with raw sludge; T2, Agricultural soil treated with ozone sludge; T3, Agricultural soil with ozone treated and electric treated sludge; T4, Agricultural soil added with common organic fertilizer. The results showed that in different treatments, the Cu content of organs showed the order of root> stem> leaf> cob> grain. Comparing root Cu content, the lowest was in T1 treatment, which was 11.60 mg/kg, while the lowest of grain Cu content was found in CK treatment, which was 1.36 mg/kg. In the upper, middle and lower soil layers, the highest and lowest Cu content was in T4 and CK, respectively. In both middle and lower soil layers, the Cu content of T1, T2 and T3 sludge treatments had a trend of T1>T2>T3; the difference of the Cu enrichment ability between different organs is not significant in the same soil layer. From each treatment, the Cu enrichment ability of plant of CK was higher than that of other treatments. According to the ability of Cu transferring to the above-ground part of plant, treatments are ranked as CK>T3>T4>T1>T2. The transferring of Cu from soil to plant was mainly affected by fertilizer level and the transferring rate of Cu from soil to stem, leaf and root was relatively high, but it was hardly affected by sludge. In summary, after ozone-electro treatment, the application of sludge does not significantly affect the Cu content in maize, and the Cu content in each treatment does not exceed the limit value of agricultural production.

Published: December 2021

Background: Gold bhasma [Swarnabhasma] is a ancient Ayurvedic medicine used for rejuvenation and longevity. This is a preliminary attempt to study the bioavailability of this medicine. Objectives: It was aimed to estimate comparative bioavailability of gold bhasma up to five hours after oral dose with four different anupana. Materials and methods: In this in vivo study, 30 healthy human participants were allocated randomly into five groups having six individuals each. Gold bhasma in 30 mg dose was administered orally with four different anupana viz honey [2.5 gm], black pepper-ghee combination [250 mg and 2.5 gm respectively], lactose [250 mg], glucose [250 mg], and plain to participants in each group. Blood samples were collected at 0, 1, 3 and 5 hours after dose. Gold levels in blood were assessed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry [ICP-MS]. Results: Gold levels in all blood samples were in traces. Average Cmax was 0.002333 microgram of gold per liter and Tmax was at 3 hours for honey anupana, showing maximum Cmax among all groups. Conclusions: Preliminary results indicate that bioavailability of gold from gold bhasma may be less than 0.01 % upto first five hours. Gold bhasma mixed with honey resulted in attainment of maximum Cmax. It is evident that accompanying media [anupana] play an important role in absorption of gold bhasma.

Eight-Hit Evolutionary Pattern in ATM Gene of a Breast Carcinoma Patient: A Personalized Approach
Authors: Mehdipour Parvin , Azarnezha Asaad
Published: December 2021

Background: Different genetic variants in the ATM gene have been reported to be associated with breast carcinoma (BC). Purpose of the study was to consider the multi-insights experiments and explorations through the molecular, cellular and structural aspects of ATM.

Methods and Results: D1853N polymorphism was traced in a proband with BC. DNA extracted from blood and tumor tissue was PCR-amplified and cloned to allelic localization of characterized variants. Protein expression and In silico analysis based on three different profiles involved in cell cycle were also performed to confirm mutational events. Findings revealed the molecular based sequential events as an eight-hit evolutionary pattern (8- Hit E.P) including D1853N as the first predisposing hit (inherited), pre-differentiation stage hits including IVS 36-8 T>C as the 2nd hit, V1833M as the 3rd hit, L1888L as the 4th, and somatic variants including IVS 36-46 C>T, L1842L, H1864H, and S1872R were considered as the 5-8th hits. Low protein expression of ATM in the majority of cells was observed, but the expression of cyclin E, CDC25A, P53, and Ki-67 was more diverse.

Conclusions: Observations were reflective of the sequential molecular and cellular events through the entire patient’s life from the pre-differentiation embryonic stage and all through the post-birth periods. Mentioned hits seem to be effective on expression and function of ATM which confirmed by the expression and in silico analysis.

Published: December 2021

Swine (Sus scrofa domesticus) are commonly used large animal subjects for the study of disease and preclinical therapies. Organ machine perfusion is a therapy that has gained momentum as a research platform for the study of ex vivo organ preservation and therapeutics. However,
complex perfusion circuits and research protocols often require large volumes of blood as perfusate. Here, we report a technique for increasing terminal blood yield during swine organ and blood procurement; our method involves acute normovolemic hemodilution and exsanguination via the femoral
artery. We collected a total of 47 ± 4 mL/kg of blood and 4.3 ± 0.6 g/kg of hemoglobin, representing 73% ± 6% of the estimated blood volume and 64% ± 8% of the total estimated intravascular hemoglobin (n = 4). Neither pH, lactate, nor pO2 levels changed significantly
during blood procurement. Acute normovolemic hemodilution is an effective method for increasing RBC and hemoglobin yield during blood procurement in swine.

Turkey's Budgetary Responses to the Pandemic and Comparison of the Stringency Level of Interventions in Turkey and Countries in East, South, and Southeast Asia
Authors: GÜNGÖR GÖKSU Gonca
Published: December 2021

This study analyses strategies for responding to COVID-19 via considerations of the Turkish state budget, the effects of the pandemic, and projections of macroeconomic and fiscal indicators. Additionally, the stringency level of Turkey's interventions in the pandemic is examined by comparing the responses of countries in East, South, and Southeast Asia. The aims of the study are to analyse Turkey’s fiscal responses to COVID-19 and to assess future estimates of economic and fiscal indicators. Another objective is to compare the level of rigour of the Turkish government's interventions with that of selected Asian countries using various indices calculated by the Oxford COVID-19 Government Response Tracker (OxCGRT). Data belonging to macroeconomic and fiscal indicators of Turkey were examined from 2019 to 2023 using proportional analysis, and countries’ response indices were calculated by averaging daily data from OxCGRT between 11 March 2020 and 28 February 2021. The study includes comparative results based on the relationship between fiscal responses and the rigour level of interventions. The originality is to be the first study that comprehensively examines Turkey’s responses to the COVID-19 and its effects on the state budgeting in the short and medium-terms. It is reported that the Turkish government has taken decisive actions in the face of the pandemic when compared to Asian countries but response costs have driven significant increases in the planned levels of budget and borrowing.
Adam Smith'in Vergileme İlkeleri Çerçevesinde Vergiye Gönüllü Uyumun Analizi
Authors: TEYYARE Erdoğan , DİRİCAN Hüseyin
Published: December 2021

Modern maliye anlayışının bir gereği olarak hükümetlerin iktisadi, mali ve sosyal alanlarda görev ve sorumluluklarını yerine getirebilmesi adına ihtiyaç duyduğu gelirin önemli bir bölümü vergiler ile finanse edilmektedir. Hükümetlerin vergilerden beklenen optimum hasılatı sağlayabilmesi, işlevsel bir vergi sistemlerinin oluşması ile mümkün olabilmektedir. İşlevsel bir vergi sistemini oluşturabilmeleri ise vergileme ilkeleri ile yakın ilişki içerisindedir. Nitekim bir vergi sisteminden beklenen faydanın sağlanabilmesi, vergileme ilkelerinin vergi sistemine nüfuz etme derecesi ile ilişkilidir. Vergi sistemlerinin sağlam temeller üzerine inşa edilebilmesinde vergileme ilkeleri önem arz etmekteyken, bu sistemden sağlanacak olan optimum hasılat için vergiye gönüllü uyum önem arz etmektedir. Vergi uyumunun sağlanması dünyadaki tüm ülkelerin vergi ile ilgili en önemli problemleri arasında gelmektedir. Vergi sosyal bir olgu olmakla birlikte, verginin yüklenicisi olan mükellef için psikolojik bir olgudur. Bu bağlamda hükümetlerin, vergi sistemlerini oluştururken vergileme ilkelerine, sistemden optimum hasıla sağlayabilme durumunda ise vergiye gönüllü uyuma önem vermeleri gerekmektedir. Çalışmada Adam Smith’in vergileme ilkeleri kapsamında Kocaeli ilinde vergiye gönüllü uyum analiz edilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda bireylerin vergiye gönüllü uyum göstermelerini teşvik eden en önemli ilke “iktisadilik ilkesi” iken vergiye karşı gönülsüz tavır sergilemelerini tetikleyen ilke ise “adalet ilkesi” olarak tespit edilmiştir.

Published: December 2021

Las queilitis por contacto son procesos patológicos de etiología multifactorial de origen externo que generan lesiones en el bermellón de los labios, en algunos casos se acompaña por una dermatitis contigua. Este tipo de queilitis recibe esta denominación debido al mecanismo de acción de la noxa productora, la cual actúa por contacto en la superficie labial produciendo una reacción antígeno anticuerpo. Los agentes sensibilizantes y desencadenantes del proceso inflamatorio son de origen físico y químico en sus diversas formas. Los físicos son los rayos actínicos y ultravioletas. Los químicos son más numerosos, como los cosméticos, alimentos, pastas y cepillos dentales. La incidencia es alta en el sexo femenino y en el labio inferior por su mayor superficie. El objetivo de este estudio fue realizar una evaluación comparativa de la crema de propóleos en el tratamiento de las queilitis por contacto y de la posible reacción adversa medicamentosa. Se llevó a cabo en pacientes de ambos sexos, a partir de los 15 años con diagnóstico clínico de queilitis por contacto, los que fueron asignados en forma aleatorizada simple en dos grupos. El primer grupo de control, recibió tratamiento tradicional. El segundo grupo experimental recibió la formulación objeto de estudio, la crema de propóleos. Ambas medicaciones redujeron de manera significativa la intensidad de la sintomatología y los signos sin efectos adversos en pacientes con queilitis por contacto. La formulación magistral de crema de propóleos objeto del presente estudio, ha demostrado ser efectiva en el tratamiento de las queilitis por contacto.

El aumento de la edad de la población y el número relevante de pacientes edéntulos obligan a pensar su tratamiento como una necesidad actual y progresiva. El uso de implantes dentales deviene en alternativas de tratamiento de probada eficacia. Las sobredentaduras como nueva alternativa terapéutica están indicadas siempre en la mandíbula, mientras en el maxilar superior solo si existen piezas dentarias viables en el maxilar inferior. Se buscó literatura relacionada con el tema planteado, para desarrollar esta revisión narrativa, con el fin de estudiar las bases que indican las sobredentaduras implantoasistidas en el paciente desdentado total. La literatura científica internacional sugiere que el tratamiento de un desdentado total con prótesis completa convencional inferior no es actualmente el tratamiento más adecuado. Existe evidencia científica significativa que soporta la elección a priori de una sobredentadura inferior soportada por dos implantes, es vista como primera opción de tratamiento en un desdentado total.

West Nias Regency has an enormous potential tourist destination, namely the Hinako Islands which consists of eight beautiful small islands. Yet the limited infrastructure and capacity of human resources have become the obstacle for this potential. The purpose of this study is to provide recommendations for tourism development strategies in the Hinako Islands to increase local government revenues (PAD) and the welfare of local communities. The research question is how is the strategy of the local government in developing tourism in the Hinako Islands?. This research is a field research, qualitative analytical descriptive type. The primary data of the research were observation and in-depth interviews, also supported by secondary data in the form of documentation and relevant literature studies. This study recommends a tourism development model consisting of 3 elements, namely: 1) West Nias Regency Government as a facilitator to provide tourism facilities and infrastructure; And as a regulator to formulate and enforce tourism business rules for the benefit of the Regional Original Income (PAD) and bring prosperity to local communities. 2) Private, namely existing investors, new investors with an ecotourism pattern, and village-owned enterprises (BUM-Des) to work on the industry in the concept of tourism agromina. 3) Community, to be a friendly host for tourists by providing guarantees for tourist safety, maintaining environmental cleanliness, and providing memorable experiences for tourists. The recommended strategies include strategies for developing tourism destinations, the tourism industry, tourism marketing, and tourism institutions.

Effectiveness of WhatsApp for measuring migration in follow-up phone surveys - Lessons from a mode experiment in two low-income countries during COVID contact restrictions
Authors: Ndashimye Felix , Hebie Oumarou , Tjaden Jasper
Published: December 2021

Phone surveys have increasingly become important data collection tools in developing countries, particularly in the context of sudden contact restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Phone surveys offer particular potential for migration scholars aiming to study cross-border migration behavior. Geographic change of location over time complicates the logistics of face-to-face surveys and heavily increases costs. There is, however, limited evidence of the effectiveness of the phone survey modes in different geographic settings more generally, and in migration research more specifically. In this field experiment, we compared the response rates between WhatsApp—a relatively new but increasingly important survey mode—and interactive voice response (IVR) modes, using a sample of 8446 contacts in Senegal and Guinea. At 12%, WhatsApp survey response rates were nearly eight percentage points lower than IVR survey response rates. However, WhatsApp offers higher survey completion rates, substantially lower costs and does not introduce more sample selection bias compared to IVR. We discuss the potential of WhatsApp surveys in low-income contexts and provide practical recommendations for field implementation.

Components and Tidal Modulation of the Wave Field in a Semi-Enclosed Shallow Bay

Published: December 2021

The wave field in coastal bays is comprised of waves generated by far-off storms and waves generated locally by winds inside the bay and regionally outside the bay. The resultant wave field varies spatially and temporally and is expected to control morphologic features, such as beaches in estuaries and bays (BEBs). However, neither the wave field nor the role of waves in shaping BEBs have been well-studied, limiting the efficacy of coastal protection and restoration projects. Here we present observations of the wave field in Tomales Bay, a 20 km long, narrow, semi-enclosed embayment on the wave-dominated coast of Northern California (USA) with a tidal range of 2.5 m. We deployed pressure sensors in front of several beaches along the linear axis of the bay. Low-frequency waves (4 * 10^-2 * 2.5 * 10*^-1 Hz or 4 - 25 s period) dissipated within 4 km of the mouth, delineating the "outer bay" region, where remotely-generated swell and regionally-generated wind waves can dominate. The "inner bay" spectrum, further landward, is dominated by fetch-limited waves generated within the bay with frequency >= 2.5 < 10*-1 Hz. The energy of both ocean waves and locally-generated wind waves across all sites were modulated by the tide, owing to tidal changes in water depth and currents. Wave energies were typically low at low tide and high at high tide. Thus, in addition to fluctuations in winds and the presence of ocean waves, tides exert a strong control on the wave energy spectra at BEBs in mesotidal regions. In general, it is expected that events that can reshape beaches occur during high wind or swell events that occur at high-tide, when waves can reach the beaches with less attenuation. However, no such events were observed during our study and questions remain as to how rarely such wind-tide concurrences occur across the bay.
Narcissism Dynamics

Published: December 2021

The scientific study of narcissism has accelerated in recent years. However, this literature has primarily been cross-sectional and descriptive in nature, making it difficult to integrate with theories of narcissism, which instead emphasize various dynamics. Theoretical work construes narcissism as a complex dynamical system with processes that interact to contribute to narcissism expression and maintenance. We begin by reviewing theoretical accounts of narcissism and what they suggest about dynamic processes. We then review research that examines processes associated with narcissism in naturalistic settings. Integrating clinical theories with empirical work, we highlight remaining tensions in the field and discuss major conceptual considerations. For example, we discuss the role of entitlement and antagonistic behavior within narcissism and the need to identify the temporal ordering of various processes (e.g., self-esteem fluctuations and fluctuations in grandiosity and vulnerability). In light of limitations of the existing literature, we then discuss methodological barriers that currently limit the ability to fully align empirical research with theorized processes within narcissism.
