Published: January 2023

ABSTRACTCan self-assessment and reflection as a part of the writing process make EFL students enhance their writing? This article presents the findings of a semester-long study conducted at four universities in Medan, North Sumatera where writing portfolio including self-assessment and reflection practices were implemented to support students make their progress. Using pre- and post- test design, it was found that the writing performance of students who used portfolio mainly focusing on combination of self-assessment and reflection for their essay writing process over a semester more increased than students who did not. The growth of writing performance corresponded to students’ ideas of improvement in writing. EFL writers who were usually concerned with correcting surface-level errors (mechanics and vocabulary) rather than global errors (organization and content), in this study, partially focused on global errors. Keyword: self-assessment, EFL students

Various studies conducted on business sustainability have shown that organisations need to become ambidextrous in order to sustain in rapidly changing environments. A number of studies have investigated on numerous organisational ambidexterity antecedents and outcomes. However, very few studies have focused at the employee level. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to identify the variables that determine engagement and ambidexterity among engineers in the SMEs context which were predicted to be determined by person-job fit, person-team fit, and person-organisation fit. The samples were obtained from 106 graduate engineers working in SMEs Engineering Consulting Firms. Covariance-Based Structural Equation Modeling (CB-SEM) was used to test the direct and indirect effects of the variables using the Analysis of Momentum Structures (AMOS). Results indicated that only person-job fit influenced employees’ engagement, employees’ engagement influenced employees’ ambidexterity, and employees’ engagement mediated the relationship between person-job fit and employees’ ambidexterity. In summary, the findings of this study could be applied in SMEs for developing and implementing organizational strategies to improve the level of employees’ engagement and employees’ ambidexterity by focusing on person-job fit, person- team fit, and person- organisation fit.

Effective from December 2016, the Malaysian external auditor is required under the revision of the International Standard on Auditing (ISA) to give comments on Key Audit Matters (KAM) in the audit client’s financial statement which indirectly increases the relevancy of ISA 610 “Using the Work of Internal Auditor”. This study aimed to explore the impact of two main aspects under ISA 610 namely “external auditor engagement quality (EX_QUAL)” and “external auditor reliance (EX_RELY)” on internal auditor’s risk judgment performance. The survey of 274 internal auditors in the Malaysian public and private sector found that internal auditors who experienced high EX_QUAL outperform risk judgment as a result of awareness that the judgment made must be reflective of their own competency, independence, work performance and due care. Unfortunately, internal auditors who experienced high EX_RELY did not perform as expected since internal auditor’s anxieties on the bad consequences of full disclosure risk faced by the company. EX_QUAL could be one of monitoring mechanism to improve internal audit’s risk judgment. Furthermore, mitigating action, such as external auditor involvement in internal audit annual risk assessment plan could deter internal auditor bias and increase objectivity, and thus induce a positive impact of EX_RELY on internal auditor’s risk judgment performance.

Research on the optimisation of logistics parcel intelligent sorting and conveying chain combined with variable clustering mathematical method
Authors: Yan Shenghua , Huang Lei
Published: January 2023

The rapid development of China’s economy, especially the rapid rise of the logistics and distribution industry in recent years, coupled with the rise of e-commerce in recent years, has created a huge impact on the traditional logistics industry. Aiming at the sorting system of small and medium-sized logistics distribution centrer, this paper proposes an item allocation strategy based on customer demand in combination with practical application requirements and adopts the direct dynamic clustering algorithm based on hierarchical clustering. As a clustering index, all items in the distribution centre are clustered and the final clustering result is obtained. The results show that the maximum value of segmentation using the single connection method is 5.8, reflecting that the distribution distance is more advantageous; the maximum value of the segmentation method using the median method is 2.94, and the minimum value is 2.35, which reflects that the result of the algorithm is relatively uniform. A reasonable item allocation strategy has a certain positive effect and influence on the development of modern logistics and the service quality of the logistics industry.
The Legality of Passage of the Nuclear-Powered Submarines: Are Malaysia and Indonesia in Catch-22?
Authors: Rusli M. H. M.
Published: January 2023

INTRODUCTION.Southeast Asia is home to some of the most important sea lines of communications (SLOCs) which are not only significant maritime con­uits for merchant vessels, but military vessels of the superpower nations as well. While there have never been any casualties involving nuclear-powered submarines in this region, the fact remains that the num­ber of such vessels traversing Southeast Asian SLOCs is predicted to rise in years to come.

MATERIALS AND METHODS.This research is a result of analysis of international treaties applied to navigation of nuclear-powered submarines. Some of the materials used for preparing this paper include 1) the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea 1982; 2) AUKUS pact. The methodological basis of the re­search consists of traditional methods: general scien­tific methods (in this case, based on general principles of law) and specific methods.

RESEARCH RESULTS.Other than China, Aus­tralia is another State within this region projected to own nuclear-powered submarines by 2040 through AUKUS. These developments have raised concerns among leaders of Southeast Asian nations, particu­larly Malaysia and Indonesia, the caretaker States of the Straits of Malacca and Singapore as well as the Indonesian archipelagic sea lanes. These maritime waterways are traversed by thousands of vessels each year, including nuclear-powered submarines belong­ing to nations already possessing them.

DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS.This article concludes by reiterating that international law should provide an equitable balance between navigational rights and protection of the marine environment particularly in sea lines of communications which are subjected to liberal navigational rights, in relation to nuclear-powered submarines.

أدى رفض المكسيك التصويت على القرار الأمريكي لإدانة الشيوعية في مؤتمر كاركاس عام 1954، إلى تصاعد الضغوطات الامريكية على الحكومة المكسيكية التي لم تضع أي تشريع مناهض للشيوعية ولا برنامجاً لاستبعاد الشيوعيين من الأراضي المكسيكية وأصبحت ملجأً للمنفيين الشيوعيين من دول أمريكا اللاتينية الأخرى، الامر الذي أثار مخاوف الإدارة الامريكية من حدوث تغلغل شيوعي داخل النظام السياسي المكسيكي في الوقت الذي كانت فيه الولايات المتحدة حريصة على كسب الأنظمة السياسية إلى جانبها حتى لو كانت غير ديمقراطية، لا سيما مع أهم دولة تشترك معها في الحدود البرية والبحرية، وقد أدركت المكسيك أن مناهضة الشيوعية كان المعيار الذي قاست من خلاله الولايات المتحدة الامريكية ولاء حلفاؤها، كما أدركت أن الاستراتيجية الامريكية ضد التوسع الشيوعي في أمريكا اللاتينية قد تضطرها إلى التدخل في المكسيك، مما أدى إلى استسلام الحكومة المكسيكية للضغوطات الامريكية، لا سيما بعد التدخل الأمريكي في غواتيمالا عام 1954، إذ أعلنت المكسيك عن تضامنها مع الولايات المتحدة لمناهضة الشيوعية.

The main purpose of this research is to describe the invest of disciplined character in an effort to grow independent learning. This research activity was carried out through an in-depth study with a qualitative descriptive approach at random at the elementary school in the Yogyakarta. The data collection technique was done by triangulation (combined), using inductive/qualitative data analysis. Triangulation of data was carried out by means of interviews, observations, and documents related to the invest of character values in growing independent learning during the pandemic. Interviews were conducted with randomly selected primary school teachers and randomly selected 4th and 5th grade students from several schools. Observations were made by following the virtual learning process conducted by the interviewed teachers. Supporting documents used are student attendance data and recap of assignments for a certain period. The data obtained in the field is recorded in descriptive form as it is in the form of small notes then a reflection note is made containing comments from researchers related to phenomena in the field. From the results of interviews with teachers and parents obtained data that the character of discipline will affect the growth of various independent characters in students. Students who have a disciplined character will get used to living regularly. Awareness will grow in students to carry out their activities because students feel the need to do so. Independent learning during online learning requires cooperation between teachers and parents or guardians. Students remain under parental supervision when outside the virtual learning process. Parents or guardians play a role as mentors for students in growing independent learning. The character of discipline and independence that needs to be instilled in students is not only limited to learning. But also discipline in carrying out their daily routines. This independence of learning in students will have an impact on reducing the dependence of students to learn by waiting for orders or accompanied by parents.

Integrating Nonlinear Controllability into a Multidisciplinary Design Process
Authors: Cunis Torbjørn , Kolmanovsky Ilya , Cesnik Carlos E. S.
Published: January 2023

Even in multidisciplinary aircraft design, most aspects of nonlinear controllability are only considered in later design phases. Hence, control considerations are not used to inform the overall design of the airframe. This paper presents a control-aware controller-agnostic design optimization framework that integrates nonlinear controllability constraints, which are informed by the solutions to optimal control problems, into the multidisciplinary design process. To implement the optimization, procedures to evaluate the sensitivity of the controllability constraint to variations in the design variables are defined. A supersonic aircraft case study illustrates the methodology and the steps involved in the process. The proposed approach enables the integration of control-related constraints into gradient-based design optimization.
Exergy Balance Extension to Rotating Reference Frames: Application to a Propeller Configuration
Authors: Berhouni Ilyès , Bailly Didier , Petropoulos Ilias
Published: January 2023

The exergy analysis has already proved to be of interest for aerospace applications, with the possibility to analyze new types of configurations. It is of particular interest when a pertinent thrust/drag breakdown is not possible and when significant thermal exchanges take place in the control volume. In addition, this method allows to link the different contributions of the exergy terms to physical phenomena in the flow, improving the understanding of the sources of losses degrading the performance of the system under study. The applications and results obtained in a fixed frame of reference have thus motivated the improvement and extension of the exergy balance to more complex flows. This paper aims at presenting an extension of the exergy balance to rotating frames of reference for the analysis of rotating components of the propulsion system (e.g. propeller, turbomachine or helicopter rotor blades). The newly developed theoretical development is summarized, and an application to a numerical simulation of a propeller is presented. Results are discussed in terms of both physical interpretation and numerical accuracy.
Pulsed Velocity Created by a Plasma Actuator in the Vicinity of the Wall
Authors: Zhang Xin , Huang Yong
Published: January 2023

Surface dielectric barrier discharge plasma actuators, which have a few advantages and are involved in continuous and burst modes, have attracted worldwide attention for aircraft flow control in the last two decades. It is believed that understanding the flowfield generated by surface dielectric barrier discharge plasma actuators has a great effect on promoting the control effects of plasma actuators. Nevertheless, the details of the flowfield close to the wall remain unclear. Motivated by this requirement, the flowfield created by a single asymmetrical plasma actuator is investigated in still air by using the two-dimensional time-resolved particle image velocimetry device. Interestingly, a pulsed velocity created by the plasma actuator with the continuous mode near the dielectric surface is first observed, which might cause the impact effect by creating large-size disturbances, and benefits flow control. It is speculated that the formation of the pulsed velocity is related to the coupling effect between the entrainment of the starting vortex and the induced body force at the initiation stage closely. In addition, the present results reveal the underlying mechanism that the control effect of the burst pattern has significantly outperformed that of the continuous one.

Authors: SEZAL Levent
Published: January 2023

Kripto paralar, dünyada son yıllarda ortaya çıkan ve klasik para anlayışından farklı olarak hızlı bir şekilde yaygınlaşmış ve alternatif yeni bir değişim ve yatırım aracı olmuştur. Gelişmiş ülkelerde kağıt para ile yapılan harcamalar büyük oranda yerini kripto paralara bırakmaya başlamıştır. Kripto paralar elektronik olarak transfer edilebilme ve saklanabilme özelliğine sahip olup, kâğıt paraları temsil etmektedir. Bitcoin (BTC) kripto paraların ilki olup, 2009 yılında ortaya çıkmış ve kripto para çağının kapılarını aralamaya başlamıştır.

Bu çalışmanın amacı Bitcoin fiyatları ile Dolar endeksi arasındaki ilişkinin ekonometrik olarak araştırılmasıdır. Araştırmada, tarih aralığının belirlenmesinde, Bitcoin verilerinin ulaşılabilir olduğu en eski tarih 02.02.2012 olup, veri aralığı olarak 21.12.2021 dönemi iş gününü kapsamakta ve günlük verilerden oluşmaktadır. Çalışmada yöntem olarak zaman serisi analizlerinden yararlanılmıştır. Değişkenler arasındaki ilişkiyi test edebilmek için serilerin durağan olup olmadığı ve yapısal kırılmaları da dikkate alan “Lee Strazicich Birim Kök Testi” uygulanmıştır. Değişkenler arasında herhangi bir nedenselliğin olup olmadığı, nedensellik mevcutsa bu ilişkinin yönünün ne olduğu “TodaYamamoto Testi” ile ikili analiz şeklinde test edilmiştir. Toda-Yamamoto testi sonuçlarına göre, Bitcoin fiyatlarıyla, Dolar endeksi arasında bir nedensellik ilişkisinin bulunmadığı tespit edilmiştir.

Bu çalışmada, Almanya veri seti kullanılarak karma evliliklerin çocukların eğitime katılımı üzerine etkisi incelenmektedir. Karma evlilik, herhangi bir ırka bağlı göçmen kişi ile yerli birinin evliliği şeklinde tanımlanmıştır. Çalışmanın amacı doğrultusunda Alman Sosyo Ekonomik Panel (G-SOEP) veri seti kullanılmıştır. Her bir karma evlilik türü için farklı sonuçlar elde edilmiştir Analizde farklı sonuçlar elde edildiğinden karma evliliklerin çocukların eğitime katılımı üzerine etkisini genellemek zor olmaktadır. Farklı sonuçlar elde edilmesi gösteriyor ki elde edilen sonuçlar karma evliliğin yapısından değil karma evlilik yapan baba ve annelerin kendilerine has özelliklerinden kaynaklanmaktadır. Bir diğer bulgu çocukların eğitime katılımını etkileyen önemli faktörlerden birinin okul ortamı olmasıdır. Çocukların okulda etnik kökenleri yüzünden zarar görüp görmedikleri ile ilgili değişken analize dahil edildiğinde, hem anne hem babası yerli olan çocuklara kıyasla karma evlilik yapmış aileye sahip olan çocuklar için pozitif bir etki bulunmuştur. Bu sonuç göstermektedir ki poltika yapıcılar kurumların potansiyel ayrımcılığa karşı farkındalıklarının oluşmasına büyük önem vermeil ve bütün çocuklara eğitimde eşit fırsatlar sunmalıdır.

Modern anlamda ilk insansı robot, 1973 yılında geliştirilmiştir. Zaman içerisinde gerçekleşen teknolojik gelişmeler, daha karmaşık görevleri yerine getiren insansı robotların üretilmesini sağlamıştır. Bu durum, insansı robotların kullanımını giderek yaygınlaştırmıştır. İnsansı robotların iş dünyasında giderek yaygınlaşması, onlarla etkileşime geçen bireylerin algı, tutum ve davranışlarının belirlenmesini önemli hale getirmiştir. Bu konuda tüketicilerin algı, tutum ve davranışları belirsizdir. Ayrıca insansı robotların giderek çalışanların yerini alması ya da çalışanlarla birlikte görevleri yerine getirmesi, çalışanlar üzerine stres oluşturmaktadır. Bununla birlikte işverenlerin, konuya verimlilik ve maliyet açısından yaklaştığı görülmektedir. Ülkemizde insansı robot kavramı, genel olarak mühendislik bakış açısıyla incelenmiştir. Sosyal bilim temelinde yapılan çalışmaların daha sınırlı olduğu görülmektedir. Bu çalışmada insansı robot ve hizmet sektöründe insansı robot kullanımı üzerine yapılan araştırmalar incelenmektedir. Literatürde konunun farklı hizmet türlerinde, farklı katılımcılar üzerinde çeşitli teknikler kullanılarak incelendiği görülmektedir. Yapılan incelemelere göre, insansı robotların performanslarının yeterli olarak görülmediği, genel olarak bireylerin insansı robota karşı tutum ve davranışlarının olumlu olduğu belirlenmiştir. Çalışmanın katkısı, hem akademisyenlere hem de uygulamacılara yöneliktir. Tüketici davranışları ve hizmet sektörü üzerinde çalışan araştırmacılara yeni araştırma konuları belirleme konusunda rehberlik etmesi beklenirken, uygulamacılara da insansı robot yatırımları üzerine rehberlik etmesi beklenmektedir.

Abstract. Primary breast lymphoma is an unusual clinical entity accounting for 0.05-0.53% of all breast neoplasms. The usual presentation includes a painless palpable mass similar to that of breast carcinoma. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is the most common identifiable type of plasmablastic lymphoma based on the histopathological examination. We report an unusual case of a 47-year-old Belarusian woman who presented with a 3-month history of a painless mass in the left breast. A biopsy revealed diffuse infiltration of lymphoid cells. The immunohistochemical biomarkers confirmed the diagnosis of a non-Hodgkin's diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. After completing the chemotherapy, the patient is on follow-up, and at 48 months she is alive without disease activity. This case demonstrates the importance of histological verification for treatment. An integrated approach, including the analysis of clinical and anamnestic data, the results of histological and immunohistochemical analysis, allows for modern differential diagnosis of rare breast tumors.

This present study aims to examine the phenomenon of the relative age effect among football players based on birth year and the positions they played in Turkish professional leagues. A total of 3622 professional football players from Turkish Super League, Spor Toto 1stLeague, 2ndLeague and 3rd League were included in the study. The players were divided into 4 different quarters with 3-month intervals and 2 different half-terms with 6-month intervals starting from January. The data of the second half of the 2021-2022 football season were used in the research. The data of the study were obtained from the official and open-access web pages of the Turkish Football Federation and Transfermarkt. With the chi-square test, the distribution of the football players according to birth months, positions and leagues and the frequency distribution differences between the groups were analyzed. SPSS 22 statistical package program was used to analyze data and the significance level was accepted as p<0.05. As a result, it has been observed that the number of football players born in the first quarter and the first 6 months of the year in all of the professional leagues in Turkey is more than the players born in the other quarters of the year, and the results were found statistically significant. In addition, it has been determined that there are more football players born in the first months of the year in all positions according to the leagues. As a result, the presence of relative age effect in football players playing in professional leagues in Turkey has been revealed.

The purpose of this study is to develop the theoretical basis for assessing the level of risks of investing in housing construction. The need for such an assessment is due to the fact that the process of housing construction is characterized by a fairly significant level of investment risks. These risks, to one degree or another, are borne by most of the participants in the mentioned process, in particular, investors and developers. Therefore, it is important to develop and implement effective mechanisms for reducing the risks of investing in residential construction. At the same time, the creation of these mechanisms should be preceded by a detailed assessment of the existing level of investment risks in the field of housing construction. In this work, it is noted that measuring the risks of subjects investing in the construction of housing requires the preliminary formation of a sufficiently wide array of information necessary for this. Three groups of main indicators are proposed, with the help of which it is possible to measure the existing risk of investing in residential construction, namely: 1) indicators of the frequency of occurrence of relevant risk events; 2) specific indicators of the magnitude of such an occurrence 3) relative indicators of the magnitude of risk events that occur during the course of the investment process in housing construction. In turn, the following three main risk events are highlighted: an unpredictable increase in the cost of construction; deterioration of the consumer properties of residential premises compared to the previously determined level of these properties; delay in commissioning residential premises. A sample of construction organizations of the western region of Ukraine was formed. At the same time, a total of 60 such enterprises engaged in residential construction were selected. It was found out that according to the sample of construction companies under investigation, the most common risk event was untimely commissioning of housing. During the reporting year, this event took place in 56 out of 60 developers under consideration, while in 38 of them between 30% and 40% of the square meters of residential buildings were handed over late. The application of the proposed system of indicators for assessing the risks of investing in residential construction will provide an opportunity to identify reserves for reducing the level of these risks.

The functioning of management accounting contributes to solving the tasks of the enterprise management system. Analytical is of particular importance among the functions it performs. Its importance is due to the interest of management subjects in obtaining the understanding of the content of business processes, algorithms for determining the results of activities, factors that determine the relevant indicators, and the characteristics of their influence. Management accounting tasks, the solution of which is facilitated by its analytical function, relate to various aspects of the enterprise's activity. The data obtained from management accounting is used at the stages of planning, making and implementing management decisions, accounting and control and regulation. Data content refers to events that have occurred in the past, are currently occurring, and are expected to occur in the future. This determines the interrelationship of the tasks of the management accounting and economic analysis systems. A wide range of methodological techniques of economic analysis is often used to solve the problems of management accounting. The appropriate methods contribute to the solution of tasks related to the assessment of the implementation of the estimate, the selection of investment projects for the implementation of which resources should be directed, the determination of the feasibility of cooperation with counterparties, the functioning of individual business segments and structural units of the enterprise. For the purposes of management accounting, the techniques of analyzing the dynamics and structure of indicators, economic-logical and economic-mathematical methods of economic analysis, mathematical modeling and programming are used. In order to solve management accounting problems, not only analytical methods are used, but also their combination with other methods of information research. At the same time, the sources of obtaining the necessary data are the same as for the economic analysis. The conducted research gave reasons to state that the implementation of the analytical function of management accounting involves the integration and adaptation of the characteristics of economic analysis to the parameters necessary for the performance of relevant tasks. This should become the subject of further research.
