Making Things for People: An Iterative Design Procedure Informed by Human Behaviour
Authors:   , Wang Brandon
Published: December 2021

Technology inevitably evolves and develops rapidly in the modern era, industries and professions continue to strive in integrating, adapting and utilising these advancements to improve, optimise and improve the process of design to manufacture to the user experience.  Although disruptive at first causing a reluctance of technological adoption within a workplace and ultimately progression of an industry, the eventual impact and benefits noticeably outweigh the initial time and cost within industry adoption, adaptation and development. Architecture and design is not immune to this phenomenon; from computational 2D and 3D modeling, BIM and cloud based data to physical prototyping with 3D printing, laser cutting and automated CNC routing, these are a few select examples that has forced the industry of design to rethink processes, possibilities and realistic opportunities where none existed prior.  One such system that fits into this category is the advent of Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality. The numerous possibilities to which these visually and spatially immersive systems opportune for immense innovation often lacks direction or an ultimate goal thus rendering this piece of software to often be little more than a visualisation tool.  This thesis recognises the unique position that VR allows and seeks to interrogate and deconstruct current, traditional design processes to better utilise VR in aiding and reinforcing the idea of partial testing of ideas and concepts throughout the design cycle. Different sciences such as psychology, processes and automation from computational design and considerations within software development will be employed and injected into the broader architectural context in which this research presides. In addition to the VR headset, external hardware that better capture human metrics such as EEG, eye tracking, GSR will be considered to developed a seamless tool and workflow that allows us, as designers to better interrogate clients behaviour within our designed digital representations which leads to validations, evaluations and criticisms of our actions within the architectural realm.
Island and Field
Authors:   , Wilson Cameron
Published: December 2021

We build transport infrastructure to move about the city efficiently. However, in New Zealand, it is often one-dimensional and disconnected from the urban fabric. This is the case in Hataitai, where State Highway 1 imposes a boundary between the nearby village and the Town Belt that could be bridged when new work on the Mt Victoria Tunnel takes place.  What could be the nature of a pedestrian bridge that connects these disparate urban territories?  I explored this question with two distinct methods. The first used ‘fast and loose’ hand drawing and physical modelling to explore a ubiquitous mesh structure, replacing the ground plane of the site. This Field accommodated a variety of programmed elements and crossings. The second experiment replaced the mesh with an autonomous loop between the park, village and tunnel. This Island required more precise digital modelling tools and a more measured design process.  The two methods offer vastly different approaches to urban design. The ubiquitous mesh replaces the existing ground by extending it. The Loop structure is an autonomous figure over the existing and messy ground of the urban junction below.  The research demonstrates the tensions between these two approaches to urban intervention and how they can offer alluring moments in the everyday life of the city.
Aesthetics of Home. Continuity and Variation in New Zealand Medium Density Housing
Authors:   , Barclay Abigail
Published: December 2021

In New Zealand, most people do not find Medium Density housing (MDH) visually appealing. In October 2017, BRANZ carried out a survey on the different attitudes New Zealanders have towards MDH. This study concluded that the visual aesthetics is one of the top issues in shifting the acceptance of MDH within New Zealand. (BRANZ, 2017. p.2) Additionally in an attempt to house many people quickly, there have been growing concerns around the quality of the aesthetic output. (Howden-Chapman, 2015. p.80) This negative attitude towards MDH has fuelled the ever growing housing crisis.  This thesis proposes that improved aesthetic qualities can be achieved within a high density multiple housing project. It argues that identifying and analysing the current aesthetic issues connected with existing MDH in New Zealand, will create a starting point for further design-led research. From this critique, this thesis aims to design a viable alternative to the current New Zealand approach to MDH. This design will aim to model varied aesthetic qualities and to identify key strategies for potential application in other projects.  Research will occur through an extended series of different design-led research projects. Initially a quick fire design exercise in parallel with initial background research around the field of MDH and aesthetics will form the basis to begin from. Self and peer reflection will follow to inform the iterative research, extracting the key issues emerging from the research. Both research for design (theories and precedents), and researching through a series of iterative design projects occur. These two integrated research methods will be repeated in cycles throughout the year to keep the research current throughout the process and develop its depth.
How to Prep a Hāngī: A Framework for End User Engagement Within the Design Process
Authors:   , Robin-Middleton Jahmayne
Published: December 2021

Observations over recent years of New Zealand architectural practice indicate that there is growing interest in tikanga Māori in architecture and design practice.  With significant opportunities now available to support Māori in realising their housing and infrastructural aspirations, there is much discussion surrounding the role of the architect, and how they conduct themselves when working with mana whenua (partisan identifiable tribal groups who hold customary authority over Māori freehold land).  Most agree that working with mana whenua requires a collaborative approach, added to that, an approach that sees significant end user engagement.  To this affect, end user engagement within the design process is the primary subject of the research.  The largely Māori settlement of Kohupātiki is the proposed site for this research. Given the interests of this research and its focus on Māori communities, it is quite appropriate that Kohupātiki be the selected site to drive this research.  The community is made up of 4 main families; the Rapanas, Chadwicks, Punas, and Broughtons, all of whom have a vested (customary) interest in the site as it is potentially about to undergo significant transformations over the next 10-20 years.  Some of these transformations include the improvement of road access to the site, the development of a series of Papakāinga (housing developments on Māori land), and a number of refurbishments to significant communal facilities located on the site’s Marae settlement.  These developments offer significant opportunities for architectural and landscape intervention, and will serve as a vehicle to drive a participatory design process.
Exploring the Use of Mould Estimation Software in New Zealand Residential Houses
Authors:   , Butler Jarred
Published: December 2021

Regularly being exposed to the types of mould spores that can grow in houses has been shown to lead to adverse health effects such as respiratory diseases, and the exacerbation of asthma. While susceptible groups such as children, the elderly, and atopic persons are more susceptible to these effects, adverse health effects from mould spores have been shown to affect non-topic populations.  The 2015 Building Research Association of New Zealand House Condition Survey found that 46% of owner-occupied properties, and 54% of rented properties in a representative sample of the New Zealand housing stock have some form of mould in them. This means that a large portion of the population could be at risk of suffering from the adverse health effects associated with mould growth in houses. Increased air-tightness in new houses could also be at risk of being under-ventilated, potentially exacerbating this mould issue.  It is unknown whether the current New Zealand Building Code, at the time of writing, provides sufficient ventilation requirements to prevent new houses from being under-ventilated. It also does not consider existing houses, which is where most of the mould in the HCS was found.  This study explored whether data from the House Condition Survey and WuFi-Bio could be used to test mould mitigation strategies in New Zealand residential bathrooms. This was done by modelling a subset of houses from the House Condition Survey in WuFi-Pro, estimating the risk of mould in them with WuFi-Bio, and comparing this to the observations from the House Condition Survey. Parameters in the models were then changed to reflect the impact that strategies would have on the humidity and temperature in the bathrooms. The aim of this was to develop a hierarchy of recommendations that could help home occupiers and designers determine the most appropriate methods they could use to prevent mould from growing in their homes/designs.  However, the results did not align with the observations from the House Condition Survey, and testing the validity of the models by exploring the impact of assumptions showed they had no significant impact. The cause of this misalignment could not be determined, however a lack of internal condition time-series data and information about how observed mould from the House Condition Survey were identified of areas of uncertainty and prevented further exploration.  The exploration that was conducted revealed the importance of having enough data to understand the conditions that lead to any observed mould if an existing bathroom is being assessed using WuFi-Bio. It was concluded that attempting to assess a large number of houses with little data using WuFi-Bio was impractical. A controlled experimental study aimed at understanding a few houses in-depth would be a more appropriate method to test mould mitigation strategies, and help address the mould issue in New Zealand houses.
The Bionic Hand: Augmenting the Manual and the Digital
Authors:   , Davie Sarah
Published: December 2021

The tension between the hand and machine is currently at the core of one of architecture’s biggest debates. Pallasmaa and the firm Kieran Timberlake, for example, hold very different positions on this spectrum, both with a significant following.  Kieran Timberlake, who designed Loblolly House, use digital design and construction methods to discover new construction techniques for a globalised world. The capacity of parametric software, 3D printing, and robotic fabrication has been rapidly advancing in the last decade. They are opening the possibilities of new sculptural forms, more efficient construction processes, and alternative forms of detailing and ornamentation.  In contrast, Pallasmaa uses ‘the thinking hand’ to draw out intimacy: nooks, irregularities, material richness, and handcraft that invite the user into a closer relationship with architecture. Hand drawing and hand making are crucial to Pallasmaa’s goals: intimacy exists in both the design process and the final form of architecture.  The design process is not as divisive as famous pillars at each end of the spectrum imply. In this work, I explore: how can emerging technologies and ‘the thinking hand’ complement each other? And how might the ‘bionic hand’ inform both intimacy and efficiency?  I explored this through designing a six-unit housing project in the Wellington suburb of Hataitai. The site is next to Roger Walker’s maze of intimate moments, Park Mews. I approached design through hand and digital processes.  My main intention was to document a design process that integrates hand and digital techniques, showing one way an exchange between them could occur. I aimed to combine efficiency and intimacy, through exploring digital and hand techniques. This resulted in findings of the possibilities of the bionic hand in both the form and formation of architecture, the design’s place in the context of New Zealand suburbia and its place in the discipline.
Kastam: Exploring the Architectural Principles of Exchange and Resilience
Authors:   , Saunyama Ruwarashe
Published: December 2021

The Refugee Resettlement situation on Manus Island in Papua New Guinea is in dire need of a humane intervention. The Manus Island Detention Centre was officially permanently closed on the 31st of October 2017 (ABC News), leaving 600 men with three options; moving back to their countries of origin, relocating to the East Lorengau Refugee Transit Centre or moving and resettling in the United States of America on the basis that they get granted refugee status.   The option of relocating to the East Lorengau Refugee Transit Centre may seem like a viable option to the Australian state but to the 600 men it's a move that would render them vulnerable and in danger. Relocating to the transit centre will only cause more overcrowding and depletion of the already scarce resources. The living conditions of the Manus Island Detention Centrefor refugees and asylum seekers was deemed harsh and inhumane. The conditions of East Lorengau Refugee Transit Centre are no different.   The lack of bare essentials in these refugee camps such as a constant source of clean water, food, healthcare and accommodation has led to health and psychosocial problems amongst its inmates and if left unaddressed it will worsen further. This has resulted in the refugees becoming increasingly dependent on the Australian and Papua New Guinean states – which treats the centre as a state of exemption. This situation and their isolation from society has also contributed to disempowering the refugees who are increasingly unable to function in day to day life and experiencing difficulty integrating into the Manusian society.   This thesis will address this crisis architecturally; its intention is to explore architecture as a medium that will orchestrate the development of better and empowering living opportunities for the refugees and facilitate a sense of community within the Manusian society via a holistic community model.  The objective of the model is to firstly enable the refugees to become self-sufficient where they don't have to rely on the resources provided from external sources as the Papua New Guinean and Australian state.  Secondly the intention is tofacilitate community integrationby creating opportunities for the refugees and the locals to interact through shared and mutually beneficial opportunities. By developing a sense of community and reliability between the locals and refugees; both parties engaging in a traditional Papua New Guinean practice of Kastam (Otto T.), based on exchange, supportiveness, respect and honour.   The thesis aims to test and readdress, through an exploration of architectural principals related to exchange and resilience, the stigma and ideology of refugee resettlement―by moving away from the idea of refugees as reliant on the states that govern them, to the refugees becoming self-sufficient and thereby becoming less of a burdenand more of an asset to the host community.
Flexible, Family-friendly: Developing an alternative high-density, vertical housing option
Authors:   , Ing Louise
Published: December 2021

There are many benefits associated with living in low density, detached housing conditions. However, the increase in housing demands have prompted Auckland’s surge of peripheral land to be developed into homes and the amplified cost of housing. Defined as urban sprawl, many of these housing types are standalone and built on private land, as the preferred type of housing. Studies have demonstrated that Auckland families' housing preference is the standalone dwelling.  The objective for this thesis is to gain a better understanding of urban sprawl, higher-density and vertical development conditions, and recognise the various family types and their associated living preferences. The collected data influences what is considered family-friendly housing attributes, which are reviewed in three different scales of urban, building and unit. This is with the aim to propose another housing option that considers and addresses a family’s housing requirements, as an alternative to the standalone housing option. The resulting design proposes flexible, expanding and contracting units as a solution to provide families the freedom to adapt their living spaces to suit their requirements. By providing family friendly, higher-density dwellings as a suitable option, this could off set the Auckland families’ preference of the standalone house, which is currently contributing towards Auckland’s sprawl.
The Family Friendly Home: A higher density adaptive reuse strategy for Wellington
Authors:   , Tatnell April
Published: December 2021

This thesis will explore what makes a place family-friendly and, how likely families with children will consider moving into high-density residences in the Wellington Region. With an increasing population and housing demand, Wellington housing must increase in density. Furthermore, Wellington must seek to provide higher-density housing that responds to the needs of all its population including families, rather than only the narrow market that high-density housing has previously been marketed to.  High-density housing has often been marketed to single professionals, young couples, and empty nesters, neglecting the idea that families with children may also wish to live comfortably in the inner-city. Therefore, this thesis seeks to understand the needs of families to provide a living environment that responds to a family’s needs at all scales from the housing unit, building, and urban scale. It aims to do this through identifying and understanding issues identified previously by families living in high-density and exploring ways that they can be resolved in a design outcome. The thesis also reviews case studies of high-density residences to identify potential design solutions. This information was used to inform a questionnaire and the resulting survey identified specific needs and preferences in family-friendly higher-density housing for families. Using all of this, a site was chosen in the Wellington Region and developed through an iterative design process to provide a proposal for the issues identified in this thesis.  Initial research in Chapter one to Chapter five have been presented at the 52nd International Conference of the Architectural Science Association, in the paper titled ‘Regeneration of unused buildings within Wellington to attract family living, in response to the Wellington demographic’.
Embodied Remembrance
Authors:   , Wilkinson Mark
Published: December 2021

This thesis introduces embodied remembrance, to mediate the experience of the body and the digital in architecture. The rise of the digital has enabled an architecture which primarily responds to abstract desires and commodification. Embodied remembrance opposes this divorce from the digital to allow the architecture to access the affective richness embodied in mnemonic narratives. A ‘design as research’ methodology solidifies the theoretical proposition through four stages of design. The first three designs incrementally scale-up in the design of a spatial installation, medium-scale house-museum, and a public-scale care facility/archive. The final design shifts downwards in scale to consolidate the research findings. Each design shifts the theoretical framework, allowing critical reassessment of the design and research proposition. This research suggests an alternative architectural paradigm, sensitive to the complex issue of embodied remembrance experienced by the body.
Improvement of Anode of Prebaked Cell in Aluminum Electrolysis
Authors:   China Aluminum Corporation Liancheng Branch, Lanzhou, Gansu, 730335, China, Li Junmin
Published: December 2021

Compared with the previous self-cultivation anode electrolyzer, the current prebaked anode electrolyzer has advanced technical and economic indexes, high degree of mechanization and automation, and relatively little environmental pollution, which has achieved great development. However, the continuity of aluminum electrolysis production and the limited economic height of anode constitute two contradictory opposites. In order to solve this contradiction, the processes of replacing anode periodically, cleaning the residual electrode and electrolyte, pressing off the residual electrode and phosphorus-iron ring, crushing and grinding the residual electrode have been produced, which has increased the investment and labor cost per ton of aluminum. Moreover, when the anode is replaced, the operator can say that the working environment is harsh and dangerous directly in front of the high-temperature electrolyte, and a large amount of fluorine-containing flue gas is discharged out of order and pollutes the environment due to the opening of the slot cover plate and the placement of the high-temperature residual electrode during the anode replacement. At the same time, pole change has great interference on electrolytic production. At present, inert anodes can't be put into industrial production, and the continuous preparation anodes in Germany have high power consumption, so it is of great practical significance to perfect or improve the existing anode structure. This paper discusses how to solve this problem.

STRATEGIES AND METHODOLOGICAL SCHEME OF CINEMA RESEARCH. THING AND MATERIAL
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Schtein Sergey Yu.
Published: December 2021

In the first article in a series of works devoted to the analysis of existing and potentially possible algorithms for the research of cinematography, we are talking about the need to understand the fundamental division of the researched into thing and material. This is due to the fact that if for cinema studies and various discourses about cinematography, it is directly that in relation to which cognitive activity is realized, that is, the thing of research (in a methodological sense), then for disciplines with their own thing area (philosophy, cultural studies, psychology, etc.), this or that aspect of cinematography acts only as a material on which their particular disciplinary thing is investigated. In the absence of a full-fledged academic cinematography, this understanding is necessary for the fundamental dilution of existing ideas about cinematography by the nature of the initial cognitive attitudes that are the basis of research activity.
THE IMAGE OF THE SOVIET UNION IN AMERICAN CINEMA OF THE FIRST STAGE OF THE COLD WAR OF 1946-1953
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Kloos Emilia V.
Published: December 2021

The article is devoted to the initial stage of the Cold War, when the ideological confrontation between the two powers was still in its infancy and was only looking for forms of its embodiment. The author examines the image of the Soviet Union in the American cinema of 1946-1953. The author analyzes what elements formed this image, in what it was expressed and by what means it was created. The USSR was represented as bloody, and the Soviet people were fanatical and unprincipled. An important place in the article is occupied by the construction of the image of the enemy. It is created artificially as a product of propaganda and has the following features: the division of the world into “friends” and “strangers”, the exaltation of “friends” and the humiliation of “strangers” and the exaggeration of virtues and vices. An attempt is made to explain the mass character of films of such subjects and the emphasized demonization of the image of the country of the Soviets.
“LUCIFER” AND DEMONIC FIGURES IN THE WORKS OF PUSHKIN AND LERMONTOV
Authors:   University of Debrecen, Molnar Angelika
Published: December 2021

The article is devoted to the comparative analysis of demonic images and plots in the works of Pushkin and Lermontov about the Demon and in the series “Lucifer” by Netflix. Perhaps this topic goes beyond the scope of scientific discourse, but now the series enjoys such popularity that it has become perhaps the most binged show. This explains the decision of the author of the article to draw parallels between literary masterpieces and not their film adaptations, but a product of popular culture. Of course, the creators of the series did not read Russian literature, but typological similarities are obvious and can be revealed. As a result of the analysis, the series “Lucifer” can be understood as a completely human story of “the most dysfunctional family in the universe”. Our interpretation throws light on it in the aspects of rethinking biblical motives, the provisions of the Christian faith and literary tradition.

FIGURES AND SIGNS. ON THE PRINCIPLES OF CREATING A “MICRO-NARRATIVE” IN RUSSIAN ICONOGRAPHY
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Antonov Dmitriy I.
Published: December 2021

The article considers the principles of constructing a “micronarrative” in Russian iconography. The author analyzes the functioning of subtle visual signs and small figures in well-known compositions. As the paper shows, with their help, icon-painters not only made numerous clarifications and nuances in the depicted scenes, but also created new motifs and autonomous “micro-stories”. The paper focuses mainly on the icons “The miracle of the icon ’Our Lady of the Sign’, or the Battle of Novgorodians with Suzdalians”. Analyzing a series of icons that have survived to this day or are known from sketches, the author shows how differently semiotically Russian masters built the common visual story and what new features appeared in various compositions. The most rich in signs icon was the one painted in the 1460-es and stored nowadays in the Novgorod Museum. Its creator denounces the aggressors-Suzdalians not only using general visual techniques, but also with the help of small, hardly noticeable signs and details that are clearly not aimed at the mass audience. Among other images considered in the article, that icon demonstrates clearly the high variability and plasticity of ‘visual texts’ of Russian iconography – the problematic that has rarely attracted attention by specialists
EPISODE FROM THE HISTORY OF THE IDEOLOGEME “REACTION”. THE SILVER АGE

Published: December 2021

The article analyzes the specifics of the functioning of the social ideologeme “reaction” in the Silver Age of Russian culture. When analyzing its genesis and specifics S. Vengerov, the historian and left-wing publicist, compared the Silver Age with the period that preceded it. That period is commonly called the “Pobedonostsev’s Reaction”. To determine its specifics, Vengerov proposed a classification for the types of social reaction in Russia, using the original conceptual tools.
THE BIRTH AND TRANSFORMATION OF THE “GENERAL LINE” OF THE CENTRAL COMMITTEE OF THE VKP(B) IN THE POLITICAL STRUGGLE OF THE SECOND HALF OF THE 1920S AND EARLY 1930S
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Yurganov Andrey L.
Published: December 2021

The article studies the concept of “general line” in the history of the Bolshevik Party during the second half of the 1920s. N.I. Bukharin first introduced that concept into the political lexicon, speaking at the Fourteenth Party Conference (1925). The concept fixed the basic idea of the new economic policy – that it was necessary to fight against two tendencies: against considering the kulaks as the main peasant force in the village and against ignoring the main figure in the village – the middleman. That notion had a debatable meaning – above all. It was actively used by representatives of the united opposition. It was not until the beginning of 1929, when the transition from the new economic policy to the methods of military-administrative management of agriculture was outlined, that the notion of the “general line” of the Party began to express the opinion of the Central Committee of the Party and the General Secretary personally. At the beginning of 1929, Stalin posed the question that any disagreement, even the slightest, with the “general line” of the Party in conditions of aggravation of the class struggle meant a “rightwing deviation”. Subsequently, the concept became the symbolic designation of totalitarianism.
Investigation of the Potential of Using Lakes and Dams as Solar Power Plants: The Case of Yamula Dam
Authors: DAL Ali Riza
Published: December 2021

The increase in energy consumption causes a negative impact on the environment. The most important factor in sustainable development is the widespread use of renewable energy. The transition to renewable energy sources in the energy sector has started to be implemented in different fields. Electricity is produced by installing floating solar power plants (SPP) on the water surfaces of seas, lakes and dams. There is no floating SPP installation in our country yet, and it has been seen that there is a need for experimental and scientific studies in this field. With this study, it is aimed to determine the floating SPP potential that can be installed on the water surface of the Yamula Dam, which produces hydroelectricity in the industrial city of Kayseri. The Global Solar Atlas (GSA) simulation program was used to determine the potential power of floating SPP and the electricity production, and the RETScreen Program was used for the greenhouse gas emission analysis. The case of installing floating solar power plants in 10% of the minimum water level area of Yamula Dam has been investigated. In the simulation, it has been determined that the total installed power potential of the floating SPP to be installed on Yamula Dam will be 626.6 MW. In addition, it has been determined that the floating SPP will produce a total of 872.3 GWh of electricity per year with this power.

Design and Application of Multi-Axis Solar Tracking System to Increase the Efficiency of Solar Cell
Authors: GARİP İlhan
Published: December 2021

In this study, a multi-axis solar tracking system was designed and implemented in order to increase the efficiency of electrical energy obtained from solar energy, which is one of the renewable energy sources.The solar tracking unit can monitor the sun on both the horizontal axis and the vertical axis. Using the solar tracking system, it is possible to increase the efficiency by approximately % 25-35. In the biaxial control system implemented in this study, the panel was placed on the north-south line and its movement was made in the east-west axis. If it is vertical movement, the lower part (south end) of the panel is rotated and the upper part (north) is moved up and down. Optimization of the system has been achieved with this mechanism. In the implemented system, horizontal movement is provided with the help of stepper motor controlled by arduino in line with the information coming from LDRs. Vertical axis movement is provided with the help of linear motor controlled by arduino in line with the information coming from LDRs. LDRs that provide sun tracking are placed on the top of the panel.
The electrical energy produced by the system can be used as DC and AC current sources with the help of the converter and inverter circuits. In addition, this energy DC can be stored in a battery group connected to the system.
Measuring the Security Effectiveness of Machine Learning Methods Used Against Cyber Attacks in Web Applications
Authors: TOĞAÇAR Mesut
Published: December 2021

The rapid progress of technological developments in the global world, the people to closely follow these developments and share them have become the focus of cybercriminals. People realize their basic needs, requests, shares or works via smart devices using the internet infrastructure. While performing these actions, users can inevitably leave an open door through web applications. As a result, user-defined information can easily be passed on to others. Recently, there has been a serious increase in activities carried out on websites. One of the reasons for this increase, and the most important one, is the pandemic that has had an impact worldwide. Cybercriminals want to turn such situations into opportunities and gain financial gain. They look for vulnerabilities in the websites that people demand heavily and they want to access their user information and card information. This study proposes an approach that measures the performance of machine learning methods against the vulnerabilities of various websites. The data set used in the study consists of parameter properties of 1000 websites. In the experimental analysis of the study; Multilayer Perceptron, Support Vector Machines, Decision Trees, Naive Bayesian, Random Forest methods were used. The general accuracy achievements obtained from machine learning methods are; it was 74%, 73.7%, 100%, 69.5% and 100%, respectively. Experimental analysis has shown that machine learning methods are effective in detecting cyber attacks.

Authors: Sujana, MA Dr. Ir. Janti G.
Published: December 2021

The abundant of information on the internet has become a competitor for libraries as information service providers. Therefore to survive and thrive, the  libraries  must change and adopt to a rapidly evolving external environment. Understanding user information seeking behaviour is very useful for redesigning various services that suit to user needs. The objectives of this study were: 1). To analyze the characteristics of digital natives and digital immigrants of IPB University students related to their information seeking behaviour; 2). To develop a model of information seeking behaviour of both digital natives and digital immigrants of IPB University students based on structural equation modeling. The study was mainly quantitative and questionnaire was designed to study students’ information-seeking behaviour. The findings showed that the dominant behaviours and preferences of digital natives in their information seeking behaviour were influenced by environmental variables, especially the availability of information. For the information seeking behaviour variables of students, the dominant indicator were asking for printed and digital information to the lecturer. While for immigrant digital students their information seeking behaviour were dominantly influenced by environmental variables, especially the availability of information. The indicators for information seeking behaviour of digital immigrant student were dominated by asking printed information to friends, and requesting digital information to the lecturer. The success of getting information is dominant in the speed-of-getting-information indicator, both for digital natives and digital immigrant students.

Published: December 2021

Pendahuluan. Pengadaan koleksi perpustakaan haruslah efektif dan efisien. Selama ini  diasumsikan bahwa mahasiswa IPB University lebih senang menggunakan buku-buku bahasa Indonesia, namun  dari beberapa pengamatan pada koleksi buku cukup banyak buku-buku bahasa Indonesia yang catatan peminjamannya (slip tanggal kembali) dalam keadaan kosong. Artinya buku itu tidak pernah dipinjam oleh pengguna.  Salah satu cara untuk mengukur keterpakaian koleksi adalah menggunakan analisis sitasi.

Tujuan.   Penelitian ini bertujuan 1) mengetahui ketersediaan buku-buku bahasa Indonesia yang disitasi di skripsi Fakultas Pertanian IPB University 2015-2019 pada koleksi  Perpustakaan IPB University; 2) mengidentifikasi buku bahasa Indonesia yang banyak dimanfaatkan mahasiswa Fakultas Pertanian IPB University pada skripsi tahun 2015-2019; 3) mengetahui rata-rata usia keusangan buku bahasa Indonesia yang disitasi dalam skripsi Fakultas Pertanian IPB University 2015-2019; 4) mengetahui penerbit buku bahasa Indonesia yang paling banyak disitasi oleh skripsi Fakultas Pertanian 2015-2019.

Metode. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kuantitatif, menggunakan salah satu metode bibliometrika, yaitu analisis sitasi. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan mengamati daftar pustaka pada setiap skripsi, semua buku bahasa Indonesia yang ada di daftar pustaka akan dicatat pada lembar catatan berbasis Excel.

Hasil. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan buku-buku bahasa Indonesia yang disitasi di skripsi Fakultas Pertanian IPB University 2015-2019 tersedia di koleksi Perpustakaan IPB University sebanyak 18,0 % untuk Departemen Ilmu Tanah dan Sumber Daya Lahan, 22,0 % untuk Departemen Agronomi dan Hortikultura, 22,0 % untuk Departemen Proteksi Tanaman dan 16,0 % untuk Departemen Arsitektur Lanskap. Buku yang paling banyak disitasi berdasarkan departemen di Fakultas Pertanian adalah “Konservasi Tanah dan Air”, “Teknik Pemuliaan Tanaman”, “Pestisida dan Aplikasinya”, dan “Pemeliharaan Taman”. Keusangan buku-buku yang disitasi berada antara 12-15 tahun. Penerbit yang bukunya paling banyak disitasi adalah Gadjah Mada University Press, Kanisius dan Penebar Swadaya.

Objective This study aims to understand borderline personality disorder (BPD) features by employing the Personality Psychopathology Five (PSY-5) scales from the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (MMPI-2).Methods A total of 156 psychiatric patients completed PSY-5 scales of MMPI-2 and Personality Assessment Inventory-Borderline Subscale (PAI-BOR). Pearson’s partial correlation analysis was conducted to control the impact of age and gender and to determine the relationship between PSY-5 scales and BOR. A hierarchical multiple regression analysis was implemented to examine whether PSY-5 scales predicted the BOR-total, and a path analysis was performed to determine whether PSY-5 scales predicted each PAI-BOR subscale.Results The BOR-total score had a significant correlation with all PSY-5 scores, even after controlling for age and gender. However, only aggressiveness (AGGR), disconstraint (DISC), negative emotionality/neuroticism (NEGE), and introversion/low positive emotionality (INTR), excluding psychoticism (PSYC), significantly predicted BOR-total. The path analysis indicates that PSYC did not predict any BOR subscale, while NEGE predicted all BOR subscales.Conclusion The study findings indicate that NEGE best reflects BPD features, while PSYC is far from the core domain that describes BPD. In addition, the influence of age should be considered when understanding BPD, since age predicted the BOR-total and two BOR subscales.
