Coastal communities are people who live and carry out socio-economic activities that depend on coastal resources, one of which is fishermen. The cultural identity of coastal communities as a whole is formed from the culture of fishermen who are directly related to the management of coastal and marine resources. Nutritional problems arise not only from health problems but also influenced by social culture and religion. The design of this study uses quantitative research with a Cross Sectional.The sample is the total population selected by the purposive sampling method, which is 71 students from five schools. The instrument in this study used a questionnaire. Techniques and data processing are carried out by using a computer program to present data in the form of frequency and then the results are presented in the table. It is known that there is a relationship between nutritional status and socio-culture in coastal communities because the nutritional status of school-age children is below the threshold of 25.4%, and 12.7% is very thin. This happens because most parents of students have daily work as fishermen so that the lack of income from parents causes children's nutritional intake to decrease, while seen from the cultural tribes of the coastal community there are more Javanese tribes which result in low nutritional status due to lack of variety in food intake.

Published: September 2021

Many studies on campus sexual assault in the past use lifestyle-routine activities theory to explain the crime. According to those studies,  certain lifestyle factors can increase the likelihood of victimization while still in college. Our research shows that the two theories fail to explain that several institutional policies or regulations set by universities can limit and shape an individual's lifestyle, thus increasing the risk of victimization. These policies or regulations include class schedules, thesis consultancies, and campus-community service programs. Against this background, the authors argue that the root cause of campus sexual assault lies in the patriarchal culture in the Indonesia context hence women have a higher risk of victimization than men.

DIVERSIFICATION OF RURAL ECONOMICS IN SABAH: PATTERNS AND DETERMINANTS OF CHANGE
Authors: Imang Ubong
Published: September 2021

Economic diversification is fundamental in driving economic growth in rural areas. Encouragement of and stimulus for the economic diversification in the rural areas allow for the generation of opportunities and new economic chains. Apart from that it will assist in the diversification of the sources of income for the rural population. In Malaysia, apart from emphasising on development policies, economic diversification began to take place in rural areas through positive developments in the economic sectors other than rural agriculture such as tourism as well as small and medium industries. The importance of leveraging on the opportunities and available space has created a need to examine the pattern and defining factors of economic diversity that is taking place in rural areas. The discussion in this article pays attention to the diversification of the economy that is taking place in the rural areas in Sabah by selecting the village of Tambatuon as a study area. In addition to the secondary data, the data is also obtained through observations, involvement in the newly created economic activities and interviews with the village heads and members of the Village Community Management Council (MPKK). The results of the study confirm that economic diversification in rural areas is in place. Most of the new economic activities exist based on the initiative of the villagers who receive support from the Government and non-governmental organisations. Nevertheless, the study also shows that the ongoing economic diversification process is still limited to the horizontal level. Hence, there is considerable potential for economic diversification that can be further expanded to enhance the competitiveness of the rural population in general. In this context, rural residents should be creative by using available local resources from the surroundings to broaden the process of economic diversification. Assistance and external support, especially from the Government, is significant in providing an environment that can stimulate economic growth to ensure that the process of diversifying the economy continues to flourish and becomes sustainable.
I think I understand: Investigating misconceptions regarding hypothesis test concepts among university students
Authors: Zaini Aida , Jamil Haziq , Leong Elvynna
Published: September 2021

Hypothesis testing is an essential tool among researchers and practitioners alike, with its use being being widely taught in many a programme at university level. However, past studies have shown that students hold misconceptions about important statistical concepts. This present study aims to reconfirm past efforts in this area, specifically in a South East Asian higher education institution. To test how well undergraduate university students’ understood key concepts in hypothesis testing, an online multiple choice questionnaire was deployed. The questionnaire also asked for students’ confidence ratings for each question, allowing us to distinguish the confident versus non-confident incorrect responses. A follow- up interview was then conducted to give deeper insights into reasons behind respondents’ errors. The main finding is that there are significantly more confident wrong answers than non-confident ones – highly indicative of the presence of misconceptions among respondents. Among them, students firmly believed that statistical inference procedures provide a direct calculational proof of the null hypothesis. Additionally, students have difficulty formulating correct hypotheses to be tested, and have poor grasp of the role of significance levels in hypothesis testing. Whether or not students were taking a quantitative-focused programme, or had prior statistics training, had no bearing on their score. Despite this, confidence ratings were significantly higher in both groups.

(Article History: Received June 28, 2021; Revised August 30, 2021; Accepted Sept 3, 2021) ABSTRAKDalugha (Cyrtospera merkusii (Hassk.)Schott) merupakan tanaman endemik Sulawesi Utara yang digunakan sebagai pangan alternatif (penganti beras). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membandingkan spesies daluga di Kepulauan Talaud dan Minahasa Selatan menggunakan DNA barcode gen rbcL (ribulose 1,5 bisphosphate carboxylase large). Perbandingan barcode DNA yang dilakukan pada empat sampel yang berbeda lokasi tersebut keduanya menghasilkan tingkat kesamaan 100% (identik). Dengan demikian, tidak ada variasi intra spesies yang ditemukan dari semua sampel yang ada. Selanjutnya, kemiripan sampel-sampel ini telusuri kemiripannya dengan kerabat terdekat yang tercatat di GenBank menggunakan BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool).  Tanaman dalugha dalam penelitian ini memiliki kemiripan 99,82% dengan tumbuhan Anaphyllopsis americana (AM905753.1), dan kemiripannya 99,63% dengan Cyrtosperma macrotum (AM905750.1), Lasimorpha senegalensis (AM905755.1), Pycnospatha arietina (AM905751.1), dan Podolasia stipitata (AM905752.1). Belum ada rekor sekuens DNA gen rbcL dari spesies ini yang dibisa dibandingkan di GenBank.Kata Kunci: Dalugha; DNA barcoding; gen rbcL ABSTRACTDalugha (Cyrtospera merkusii (Hassk.) Schott) is an endemic plant in North Sulawesi that is used as alternative food (substitute for rice). This research aimed to compare the DNA barcode of dalugha in Talaud Islands and in South Minahasa using rbcL (ribulose 1,5 bisphosphate carboxylase large) gene. The DNA barcoding comparison of all four samples in both area resulted in 100% similarity (identical). Therefore, there is no intraspecific variation found in all samples. Furthermore, the similarity of these samples were conducted with BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool) to compare with its closest relatives in GenBank.

Dividend has been a matter of concern since the concept of limited liability of the firms came to existence. The uncertainty regarding dividend policy is supposed to hunker down unless we move away from whack-a-mole approach to a long-winded solution to the problem of dividend policy. The issue gets exacerbated because of inclination towards the valuation by the people who call the shots in the firms. This paper explores the association of dividend with the rising NPAs in the Indian banks. The findings of the paper are the testimony to the fact that dividend policy in the banks has issues and need to be checked and corrected. It is recommended in the paper to decouple dividends from the NPA by linking dividend policy with free cash flow. It is also recommended to adopt DVR shares to cater to the aspirations of those investors who do look for consistent dividend policy irrespective of the performance of the banks in a particular year.

External public debt and foreign exchange reserve (FER) are performing a crucial role in the growth and development of countries. To examine the short-run and long-run dynamics among external public debt (EPD) and FER in Ethiopia, the study used 39 years data (1981 to 2019) from National bank of Ethiopia (NBE) and World Bank data sets. The Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model with error correction model (ECM) was employed after checking the possible assumptions of economic series. The results of ADF test statistics confirms our economic series are stationary with a mixture of level form and first difference form. Bounds co-integration test suggests the existence of co-integration among the variables. According to the descriptive method of data analysis, on average, in Ethiopia the trend for service sector indicated that an ever improvement of the sector throughout the periods and supplementing the notion of change from agriculture base to service sector. On the other hand, according to ARDL model in the short -run on average trade tariff rate, share of manufacturing sector from the GDP, and lagged value of EPD itself predicts the EPD significantly at least at less than 10% level of significance . Moreover, the ECM revealed that in the long-run, financial development indicator, debt service payment, and average trade tariff rate were predicting the stock of FER for Ethiopian economy. Finally, the concerned body, the government of Ethiopia, should limit or reduce the amount of external debt (ED) inflows, and recheck the budget sources for financing different projects especially manufacturing industries rather than highly basing on external sources in the form of EPD, among others.

There are two aspects to my project, one is optimized bi-directional drone designing and other is its path planning. The optimization in design lies in the fact that my drone can carry load both in +z and –z axis if its direction of motion is in x-y plane. This design optimization helps the drone to carry more payload than drones of same frame(basic chassis) weight category. In other words, my drone has greater payload to its own weight ratio(almost 0.8) than other drones with almost similar or same functionalities. Coming to path planning algorithm, I have taken a mathematical induction approach to solve the problem statement by clearly defining our conditions to follow to remain in the specified path along with constraints lying in the path. My goal as a path planner has to ensure that the drone follows the conditions specified without grappling into obstacles. Also, to achieve the desired goal in least possible time. The paths traversed by the drone would be stored into the memory processing system of the drone for future development of algorithm.

Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the concept of connecting non-traditional computers and related sources with the help of the internet. This includes incorporating basic computing and communication technologies for daily use into Physical things. Security and Confidentiality are two major challenges in IoT. In the current security mechanisms available for IoT, the limitations in the memory, energy resources, and CPU of IoT devices compromises the critical security specifications in IoT devices. Also, the centralized architectures for security are not appropriate for IoT because of a Single attack point. It is costly to defend against attacks targeted on centralized infrastructure. Therefore, it is important to decentralize the IoT security architecture to meet the requirements of resource constraints. Blockchain is a decentralized encryption system with a large number of uses. However, because of its high computational complexity and poor scalability, the Traditional Blockchain environment is not suitable for IoT applications. So, we introduce a Sliding window protocol to the traditional blockchain so that it will better suit the applications in the IoT environment. Changing the conventional blockchain and introducing a sliding window to it makes it use previous blocks in proof of work to shape the next hash block. SWBC's results are analyzed on a data stream generated from an IoT testbed (Smart Home) in real-time. The results show that the proposed sliding window protocol improves security and reduces memory overhead and consumes fewer resources for Security.
