Comparison of the Particle Size Distribution and Vapor Phase of Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems Using Two Impactors
Authors: Oldham Michael J. , Jeong Lena , Ozvald Adam , Gene Gillman I.
Published: September 2023

Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems (ENDS) contain numerous volatile aerosol constituents (e.g., nicotine, propylene glycol, flavors, etc.). Past work clearly indicates the temporal and chemical dynamics of ENDS aerosol requires consideration of these volatile constituents when measuring the particle size distribution. An MSP-135-8 Mini MOUDI™ and Electrical Low Pressure Impactor (ELPI®+) were used to measure the particle size distribution of two JUUL ENDS products. Volatile chemicals were measured from each cascade impactor's exhaust airflow to assess their effect on collection efficiency. Similar mass median aerodynamic diameters were obtained for both ENDS products by both cascade impactors, however the geometric standard deviation from the ELPI®+ measurements were larger for both products than measurements using the Mini MOUDI™ impactor. Although the measured mass of volatile chemicals was greater in the exhaust from the Mini MOUDI™ impactor, a greater variety of volatile chemicals were found within the exhaust of the ELPI®+. The greater variety of volatile chemicals correlated with more room air sampling by the ELPI®+. The reduced amount of volatile chemicals measured in the exhaust of the ELPI®+ may be due to their collection by the vacuum oil used in the sintered collection plates of the ELPI®+. Accounting for the measured volatile chemicals improved the recovery efficiency of the Mini MOUDI™ impactor by 2.9–7.5% with the average recovery efficiency exceeding 82% for the two JUUL ENDS Products. In comparison, accounting for the measured volatile constituents increased the recovery efficiency of the ELPI®+ impactor by 0.4% or less, which did not narrow the recovery efficiency range, that based upon the estimated dilution, consistently exceeded the measured mass loss from both JUUL ENDS products.
Sales effect of a software product series’ length in Japan
Authors: Seo Eunji , Inoue Yuki
Published: September 2023

Previous studies have examined changes in software sales using the network effect theory framework based on hardware sales. This study aims to examine the effects of a software series’ length on software sales. We also investigate the moderating effects of how a platform’s life cycle influences the series’ sales. We adopted the double-jeopardy theory and brand loyalty discussions for both products and corporations. To test our hypotheses, we analysed 11,863 video game software samples in the Japanese market, addressing the following research questions: How does the length of a software series influence sales in terms of both the product and the corporate brand? How is the influence of the software series’ length on sales moderated by the stage of the platform’s lifecycle? Our findings show that a longer software series led to higher software sales for both the specific series as well as other software released simultaneously by the company. Moreover, we found that the positive relationship between the video game series’ length and sales of all the firm’s software was stronger when the platform had matured. By examining firm behaviours, such as software series releases and their effects, we confirmed that software series’ length is a core factor stimulating its sales and that of other series produced by a company. We also examined the impact of a platform’s lifecycle on video game sales. Our study contributes to the field by extending the literature on the effect of brand loyalty and the double-jeopardy theory.

The Motivational Factors of Necessity Entrepreneurship in Algeria
Authors: Sellidj Yousra , Lounaci Abdelhakim , Bouchetara Mehdi
Published: September 2023

This paper centres on the phenomenon of entrepreneurship emerging from necessity. Through the adoption of a dual methodological approach, the objective is to identify the motivating factors that determine the establishment of businesses driven by necessity in Algeria. The quantitative approach utilizes principal component analysis on a sample of 194 entrepreneurs, while the qualitative approach involves conducting semi-directive interviews with seven entrepreneurs from disadvantaged backgrounds. By employing these methods, the study aims to uncover the primary variables that influence the occurrence of necessity entrepreneurship in Algeria. The findings of this research shed light on the crucial internal and external factors that contribute to necessity entrepreneurship. Remarkably, these results challenge the prevailing dichotomous framework often utilized to differentiate between necessity entrepreneurship and opportunity entrepreneurship in research studies.
The structure of conditional sentence in the newspaper journalistic style of standard Turkishl
Authors: Verkhova K.
Published: September 2023

The article is devoted to the use of various means of expressing the functional-semantic field of condition by reference to the Turkish press of the 20th – 21st centuries, which is considered the most “democratic” and flexible style of standard language. The structure of complex sentence in modern Turkish has not been so far in the focus of researchers, which determines the topicality and scientific novelty of this paper. The aim of the study is to determine the basic tendencies in Turkish syntax in the diachronic aspect during the last century, using the methods of comparative and quantitative linguistics. The research results show that in the newspaper journalistic style of the modern Turkish language preference is being given to morphological (forms of conditional mood and, less frequently, conditional modality) and lexical-syntactic (constructions made with verbal forms and auxiliary words) means of expressing condition. It is noted that periphrastic forms of conditional mood and modality are not used in the 21st century. There is a decrease in number of lexical means originating from Arabic and Persian, which can be the result of the evolution of the Turkish mass media language; moreover, writers refuse to use conjunctions due to them being optional in a Turkish conditional sentence. In addition, in the Turkish press of the 21st century, means that express substantival instead of adjectival meaning and do not contain temporality are used with higher frequency. Previous studies carried out on the topic of sentences of concession, reason and comparison in the Turkish press show similar results.
Systems of cardinal numerals in languages around the world
Authors: Petrov P.
Published: September 2023

This paper is an in-depth discussion of the diversity of counting systems developed by different peoples, which manifests itself both in lexical differences/similarities of the terms used for numerals, and in diverse operational schemes for the abstract numbering of things. The goal of the study was to bind together and clarify the variety of the counting systems that were found. During communication, speakers of languages with different counting systems face the difficulty of translating words which describe quantity, i.e. numerals. The widely used decimal system is also not devoid of surprising features. The present study focused on analysing various complex systems of counting in terms of both vocabulary and conceptual methods used by different peoples. The research data collected from academic literature provide numerous examples. The comparative method is used to show how extraordinarily inventable different civilizations were in approaching the problem of defining quantity. Particular attention is paid to the phenomenon of using specific things, such as hands, fingers, and animal names, to create counting systems. A case study of the numerals of some Austronesian languages demonstrates that a whole associative row can be traced, revealing that long ago respective peoples solidified the abstract concept of quantity into simple and clear definitions based on real things. The main result of the study is a comparison of more than 20 counting systems. The abundance of examples substantiates the idea of how many unexpectedly different and original numbering methods were used by the ancestors of different peoples and how many of them are still supported by their descendants and even unwittingly ensconced in the modern technological civilization. This paper is also supplemented by a review of the systems of birth-order names for children in several languages of the Indo-Pacific region and America.

Published: September 2023

С внесением изменений и дополнений в Конституцию страны термин “муниципальное образование” получил конституционное закрепление и вместе с тем в содержательном плане пока в соответствующей литературе не сложилосьего полноценное толкование. Вместе с тем, как представляется, именно данный термин позволяет сформировать терминологическую систему, позволяющую единообразно теоретически описывать такой политический, социальноэкономический и историко-культурный феномен как местное самоуправление в целом и способствовать как развитию собственно теории муниципального менеджмента, так и общей теории управления территориями в целях ихустойчивого социально-экономического развития. В статье предпринята попытка представить муниципальное образование как политическую форму организации жизни муниципального сообщества, которая является результатом деятельности одного из видов публичной власти — муниципальной власти, решающей вопросы местного значения в соответствии с Конституцией страны, действующим законодательством и использующей, в случае необходимости, принудительные меры. Опираясь на такое его толкование, представлена система таких терминов как “муниципальный орган”, “орган муниципальное власти” и “орган муниципального управления”, “муниципальное управление”, “муниципальная политика” и “муниципальная демократия” и ряд других.

Import Dependence of Exports, Aggregate Demand and Income Distribution in the Turkish Economy: A Post-Keynesian Econometric Analysis
Authors: KURT Ozan Ekin
Published: September 2023

This study aims to investigate the impact of import dependence on exports on the relation between aggregate demand and functional distribution of income in the Turkish economy. To achieve this, the model proposed by Stockhammer, Hein, and Grafl (2011) was employed and applied to the Turkish economy throughout 1988-2019. The findings indicate that the demand regime was wage-led in Türkiye throughout the sample period, and the integration of import content of exports into the analysis renders the demand regime even slightly more wage-led. Subperiod analyses show that even though the negative effect of a higher labor share in total income on net exports has doubled in absolute value from the 1995-98 subperiod to the 2008-18 subperiod, the positive effect of a higher labor share on private consumption expenditures did not only counterbalance but exceeded it, while its negative effect on private investment remained relatively small and constant over the subperiods. Our findings also show that the integration of import content of exports into the analysis also rendered all the subperiods moderately more wage-led.

Published: September 2023

The article examines the peculiarities of the functioning of the currency market of Ukraine since the beginning of the full-scale invasion. The exchange rate dynamics in the pre-war period are shown and the factors of its formation in 2022-2023 are determined. It is noted that a significant inflow of capital into the country in the form of foreign aid from allied countries makes it possible to compensate for the foreign currency deficit. The NBU's measures to maintain exchange rate stability and their consequences for the monetary sphere in general and the foreign exchange market, in particular, are analyzed. Based on the study of risks and threats to the stability of the foreign exchange market, appropriate measures of the NBU to neutralize them in the conditions of martial law have been determined. The expediency of fixing the exchange rate at the current stage and the conditions for restoring the regime of flexible exchange rate formation are substantiated. It is established that during the period of martial law, financial markets remained stable due to the significant inflow of non-market capital into the country, the application of a fixed exchange rate and currency restrictions. Such positive consequences of maintaining a fixed exchange rate of the hryvnia as curbing the volatility of the foreign exchange market, reducing the cost of risk insurance, reducing the vulnerability of the economy to changes in capital flows, and stabilizing Ukraine's debt position have been identified.The directions for improving the regulation of the foreign exchange market in the short and long term are outlined. The NBU's strategic direction regarding the regulation of the foreign exchange sphere is the movement towards the gradual weakening of currency control and the removal of currency restrictions introduced at the beginning of the war, the transition to flexible exchange rate formation and the return to the monetary policy of inflation targeting. The restoration of production and the adjustment of transport logistics (opening of ports and/or setting up of alternative transportation routes), the revival of exports and the growth of foreign exchange earnings from other sources will ensure an increase in the supply of foreign currency on the market. After the cessation of hostilities, the NBU should conduct an exchange rate policy taking into account the tasks of post-war reconstruction, balancing between the stimulation of imports and the attraction of foreign investments

Published: September 2023

Aquarium cleaning is routine maintenance that must be done to maintain dissolved oxygen levels in the water to ensure the survival of aquatic biota. Maintaining cleanliness and water quality is key to preventing the water in the aquarium from becoming cloudy and emitting a foul odor due to increased ammonia levels in the water. However, aquarium cleaning is quite time-consuming and laborious, which becomes a problem for Jakarta Aquatics, which is engaged in selling and purchasing ornamental fish. As a solution, a prototype cleaning equipment that can simplify the process of maintaining the cleanliness of the water in the aquarium was designed and built. In general, the cleaning equipment designed consists of an acrylic screen that acts as a pseudo-base that collects fish waste at the bottom of the aquarium tank. Pumps are then used to remove water and waste from the aquarium easily, so there is no need to remove aquarium inhabitants during the cleaning process, thereby minimizing the possibility of fish death due to stress. The method used during the outreach program includes conducting a survey, performing a design process, and demonstrating on how to use and maintain the cleaning equipment. To assess the success of this program, Jakarta Aquatics owners and employees were asked to fill out a questionnaire. The questionnaire results showed that partners were more than satisfied with the equipment performance and the demonstration event. It is hoped that using this cleaning equipment in their aquariums can help improve the productivity of Jakarta Aquatics employees.

Based on the Government Regulation of the of Indonesia Number 21 of 2020, Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB). The Ministry of Health is authorized to make technical regulations. Minister of Health made Minister of Health Regulation Number 9 of 2020, PSBB. Seems like the synergy between the Ministries hasn’t been implemented properly, ex. the Ministry of Law and Human Rights published Regulation of The Ministry of Law and Human Rights Number 10 of 2020 and The Ministry of Transportation with their Regulation Minister of Transportation Number 18 of 2020 changed to Regulation of Minister of Transportation 41 of 2020. The regulations contradict with the Minister of Health a quo regulation. Which regulation should be used? Who’s responsible for it? It’s necessary to review synchronization between Ministry regulations.

This research used Normative Juridical, Literature Study, Interview, and Analysis Method.

A brief conclusion if there’s a lawsuit against the a quo regulation then the responsibility lies with the Ministry of Health. Disharmonization between ministerial regulations can be resolved by Judicial Review, Mediation by the Ministry of Law and Human Rights, and applying the principles of Lex Superior Derogat Legi Inferiori, Lex Specialis Derogat Legi Generalis, and Lex Posterior Derogat Legi Priori Principles.
ANALISIS YURIDIS TERHADAP BELUM DIRATIFIKASINYA KONVENSI 1951 TENTANG STATUS PENGUNGSI OLEH INDONESIA
Authors: Fahira Natasya
Published: September 2023

Abstract

As one of the countries that has not ratified the 1951 Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees and its 1967 Protocol, Indonesia does not yet have a special system and policy for dealing with refugees. The existence of refugees in Indonesia is generally long-term before refugees are then placed back in a third country (resettlement). The lack of regulations pertaining to what refugees can do while residing in Indonesia clearly narrows the space for refugees to move. The limited space for movement makes it difficult for refugees to access their needs, especially in the aspects of livelihood, health, and education. For this reason, this paper can be seen as a first step to examine the reasons why the 1951 Convention has not been ratified by Indonesia, as an effort to handle and protect refugees from abroad. This research is conducted using normative-juridical method.

 

Keywords: refugee, 1951 convention, ratification, Indonesia.

Abstrak

Sebagai salah satu negara yang tidak meratifikasi Konvensi 1951 tentang Status Pengungsi beserta Protokol 1967, Indonesia belum memiliki sistem dan kebijakan khusus untuk menangani pengungsi. Keberadaan pengungsi di Indonesia pada umumnya bersifat jangka panjang, sebelum kemudian pengungsi ditempatkan kembali ke negara ketiga (resettlement). Minimnya peraturan mengenai hal-hal apa saja yang dapat dilakukan oleh pengungsi selama berada di Indonesia jelas mempersempit ruang gerak pengungsi. Keterbatasan ruang gerak tersebut mengakibatkan pengungsi kesulitan untuk mengakses kebutuhan-kebutuhannya, terutama dalam aspek penghidupan, kesehatan, dan pendidikan. Untuk itu, tulisan ini dapat dipandang sebagai langkah awal untuk mengkaji alasan belum diratifikasinya Konvensi 1951 oleh Indonesia, sebagai upaya penanganan  dan perlindungan pengungsi dari luar negeri.

 

Kata kunci: pengungsi, konvensi 1951, ratifikasi, Indonesia.

Published: September 2023

The development of information and communication technology nowadays has an impact on the trade sector. According to data from Badan Pusat Statistika and Kominfo, trade carried out through electronic media makes economic growth expeditious. Trading through electronic media is commonly referred to as E-commerce. Online stores are one of the fastest growing types of e-commerce businesses in Indonesia, an example of e-commerce in Online Stores is Business to Consumer (B2C). Indonesia as one of the e-commerce user countries with the largest number of transactions in Southeast Asia, however, e-commerce taxation regulations in Indonesia are still enforced the same as ordinary conventional stores, causing problems in taxation, especially in the imposition of B2C e-commerce taxes. Tax authorities find it difficult to determine the imposition of the amount of tax owed to e-commerce taxpayers. The writing method used by this author is a normative juridical method, where the method is carried out by looking for instructions in documents or library materials, or better known as document studies.

Indonesia already has regulations for imposing taxes on e-commerce transactions, but there are no regulations for imposing taxes on certain types of e-commerce. In the implementation of the imposition of B2C e-commerce taxes in Indonesia, there are still many obstacles that are limited by inadequate regulations and systems. Reflecting on the state of Singapore, Indonesia must have special regulations and adequate systems for B2C e-commerce so that existing obstacles can be resolved properly.

The rapid development of genetic science in recent decades has provided opportunities for clinical implementation. In the field of pharmacology, this opens up hope for the use of more targeted drugs with fewer side effects.Genetic variation's influence on pharmacological response has been well-established in practice. Patients' responses to pharmacological therapies can be varied, ranging from positive effects to serious adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Numerous genetic variations have been found to have a major impact on how people react to routinely prescribed medications over time, according to experts. In order to use this genetic information to inform treatment choices, a pharmacogenomic (PGx) profile can be used. PGx works on identifying and validating genomic variations that affect drug response. The generic approach to healthcare has given way to a more individualized and precise treatment paradigm as it has developed.

Kesehatan otot berperan dalam mempertahankan struktur dan bentuk tubuh serta melakukan aktivitas sehari-hari. Aktivitas fisik dan gizi yang baik merupakan kunci utama kesehatan otot di masa mendatang. Pengetahuan tentang gaya hidup terhadap kesehatan otot pada remaja masih rendah. Data Riskesdas 2018 juga menunjukkan bahwa gaya hidup kurang baik juga terus meningkat.

Perubahan gaya hidup pada remaja terutama sebagai dampak pandemik COVID 19 turut menentukan kualitas kesehatan otot. Kegiatan edukasi pentingnya kesehatan otot perlu ditingkatkan untuk memotivasi dan meningkatkan kewaspadaan masyarakat khususnya remaja sebagai aset bangsa di masa depan. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini melibatkan dosen dan mahasiswa bekerja sama dengan pihak sekolah dan dilakukan secara daring diikuti oleh 405 siswa kelas X dan XI jurusan IPA dan IPS di SMA Regina Pacis Bogor. Kegiatan ini diberikan dalam bentuk presentasi, games (dengan kahoot) dan diskusi interaktif. Untuk mengukur pengetahuan diberikan pre test dan post test dimana hasilnya sebagian besar adalah siswa perempuan (64,2%) dan mayoritas berusia 16-20 tahun (97%).

Dari hasil kegiatan ditemukan bahwa ada peningkatan rata-rata pengetahuan sebelum edukasi (pre test) terhadap pengetahuan sesudah edukasi (post test). Kesimpulan kegiatan ini adalah pemberian edukasi meningkatkan pengetahuan siswa terhadap kesehatan otot yang merupakan investasi kesehatan dimasa mendatang dan akan dilakukan kegiatan selanjutnya yang berkesinambungan terkait kesehatan otot remaja.

The health of school students is part of the health development and prevention program by the Ministry of Health Republic of Indonesia.  Improvement of general health will affect oral health.  Prevention of oral health problems for Bina Talenta Graha students ranged from DMF-TT intraoral examination, dental health education, pre-test and post-test 33questionnaires, and mass toothbrushing activities. 44 kindergarten and 227 elementary school students participated in the program. DMF-T index was categorized according to WHO, in which the index for kindergarten is medium (3.92), while for elementary school classes is very high (8.7). Caries in both classes were more prevalent in girls than boys. The average score for kindergarten was 97.89 (pre-test) and 95.95 (post-test), while that of elementary school was 69 (pre-test) and 66.50 (post-test). Statistical tests for pre- and post-test yielded p = 0.623. for kindergarten and p= 0.151 for primary school. As p>0.05, there was no significant difference between pre- and-post tests for both groups. The decline in scores can be caused by short duration of dental health education, pre-, and post-tests. Environmental factors such as noise, visual disturbances, fatigue, and uncomfortable room conditions also played a role. By considering those factors, next activites can be planned and done more optimally
