Authors: Arismayanti Ni Ketut , Andiani Nyoman Dini , Kusyanda Made RikiPonga
Published: March 2024

Purpose: This research aims to investigate the interplay between destination image, Electronic Word of Mouth (e-WoM), service quality, and tourist satisfaction during their stay in Bali.

Design/Methodology/Approach: The research design uses quantitative causality. The data collection technique employed in this study involves a questionnaire distributed to 600 respondents, determined through incidental sampling.

Findings: Service quality, while the services provided by the Monkey Forest staff are well-received by tourists; destination image, while the attractiveness of Monkey Forest tourist attractions is unique and appealing; and the beauty of the natural landscape. Tourist satisfaction exerts a positive and significant influence on e-WoM, while a satisfied traveler with the image and service quality of the monkey forest destination is willing to engage in marketing through electronic word of mouth. Additionally, two moderation relationships are discovered: the relationship between service quality and e-WoM, which is positively and significantly influenced by the variable of tourist satisfaction, and the clause relationship, wherein destination image positively and significantly influences e-WoM, with tourist satisfaction as a moderating variable.

Conclusions: So, it can be concluded that there are five clause relationships between variables as hypotheses, including three direct effects and two moderating relationships (indirect effects).

Research Limitations: The limitations of this research lie in the limited coverage of the research object, focusing on either a specific area or solely on one destination.

Practical Implications: The implication of this study on the e-WoM variable, which serves as an endogenous variable, significantly impacts the Normated Fit Index, albeit within reasonable limits.
The influence of professional mission on the professional quality of college teachers: The intermediary role of job burnout and the regulating role of social support
Authors: Zhen Mo , Liu Qian
Published: March 2024

Purpose: This study seeks to explore the influence of a professional mission on university teachers   specifically examining the mediating role of job burnout and the moderating impact of social support.

Design/Methodology/Approach:  Data from university teachers were collected for this study using a questionnaire survey method and the results were carefully analysed using the relevant statistical techniques.

Findings: The study finds a positive relationship between a strong professional mission and high professional quality in university teachers. Job burnout and social support serve as intermediaries and regulators. Increased burnout weakens the mission's influence while reduced burnout correlates with enhanced professional quality. A strong social network enhances a professional mission's beneficial effects.  

Conclusion: This study explores the relationship between a professional mission and university professors highlighting the mediating effects of social support and job burnout.  The findings offer valuable insights for improving educational quality and supporting teachers' personal growth. This research significantly contributes to understanding key factors in the career development of college teachers, providing enlightening perspectives for educators and policymakers.

Limitations/Significance: This study ignores personal variables in favour of examining only the effects of professional missions on university teachers' professional development. Observations and interviews are two unique methodologies that are necessary for a thorough understanding relying solely on surveys may introduce subjectivity.

Practical Significance: Findings guide institutions and policymakers to boost education quality by supporting teachers' professional development through training and social support and   addressing burnout.

Contributions to the Literature: The study fills gaps by confirming the beneficial influence of professional missions on the careers of teachers and guiding the improvement of education.

Climatic events of the last millennia in the northeastern part of the Norwegian-Greenland basin were reconstructed based on micropaleontological studies of sediments from the AMK-6150 core. New results were obtained from analyses of dinoflagellate cysts, diatoms, and benthic and planktonic foraminifers. These results allow us to infer the time of sediment accumulation and the prevailing natural conditions. According to preliminary data on climatostratigraphy based on the composition of microfossils, the period of sediment formation in the AMK-6150 core does not exceed 7 thousand years. The composition of microfossil assemblages and the results of reconstructions indicate repeated changes in marine environmental conditions during this time. Sediments at the depth of 23-24 cm recorded the beginning of a significant growth of temperature and salinity of surface waters due to a possible increase of the Norwegian Current influence. According to the species and quantitative composition of dinocyst and diatom assemblages, sediments in the short depth range of 14-12 cm accumulated during a period of noticeable decrease in temperature and increased influence of Arctic water masses. The analysis of dinocysts by the method of modern analogues allows reconstruction of the quantitative values of summer paleotemperatures of surface waters and the duration of ice cover. It was found that the cooling episodes and probable formation of seasonal sea ice were possible during the accumulation of sediments at the depths of 29-24, 14-12 and 3-1 cm.

Cultural Analysis of Persian Proverbs Including 'EYE' as Sensory Organ and 'SEE' as Perception Verb
Authors: Sharifrad Arezoo
Published: March 2024

This study investigates how much the sensory body organ ‘eye’ is linked to the corresponding perception verb ‘see’ in Persian embodiment proverbs. It aimed to provide a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the Persian proverbs and their equivalents in English. This research utilized the conceptual metaphor theory proposed by Lakoff and Johnson. Data were collected from the Persian Dictionary of Proverbs and were analyzed to determine the frequency, speech act functions, and framing in these proverbs. Data analysis revealed that Persian proverbs are framed more around gain-framing and loss-framing rather than avoidance-framing. Most Persian proverbs function as statements and complaints rather than advice or warnings. The results showed that proverbs involving 'eye' and 'see,' surpassed others related to ‘eye’ and ‘blind’, and the frequency number of the perception verb ‘see’ was more than the sensory body organ ‘eye’. Finally, despite variations in the use of different words that are used with eye or see in a single proverb, this study concludes that the ‘eye’ is more used with its allocated perception verb ‘see’. However, the perception verb ‘see’ is never used with ‘blind’, but ‘eye’ is often used with ‘blind’.

The role of earthquake catalogue in seismic tomography
Authors: Pucciarelli Giuseppe
Published: March 2024

Seismic tomography is a process used to know a structure in the depth of a determined part of Earth. It consists of two parts. The first one, the so-called Forward Problem, provides a computation of theoretical traveltimes starting from an estimate of hypocentral parameters obtained by earthquakes registered by a specific network of seismic stations. The second one, the so-called Inverse Problem, aims at providing a 3-D seismic velocity model obtained minimising residuals, that is the difference between theoretical and observed traveltimes. The production of a well-distributed earthquake catalogue is really important to obtain a well-performed seismic tomography. So, it is relevant to the description of the rules to achieve an acceptable and performing earthquake catalogue for seismic tomography. Three examples are shown: local tomography, regional tomography, teleseismic tomography. In each of them, broad relevance has been given to the theoretical background and to the formation of an earthquake catalogue with just a hint (images only) to the final results.

The SG utilizes state-of-the-art technologies to supply consistent and economical power. Due to environmental concerns and fossil fuel depletion, solar and wind power have gained in popularity. Renewable sources are progressively integrated into SGs. Intelligent information and communication technology (ICT) has increased grid integration of SERs through real-time monitoring and supply side coordination between demand response services and variable renewable sources. Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) combine small modular generation units near end-users to generate renewable electricity into utility grids in an integration-friendly way. Transmission line congestion and power generation greenhouse gas emissions are reduced by DERs. Virtual Power Plants (VPP) are another promising grid integration technique for SERs. VPP use machine learning algorithms and data analytics pipelines developed through stakeholder big data sharing to predict distributed grid conditions more accurately than human operators, improving stability factor throughout their trading areas at peak times when demand is high from various points. Modern information technology allows ground-up modeling of significant structured datasets with patterns, enabling infrastructure optimizations without replacements.
Pharma Intelligence Applied to the Research and Development of Cell and Cell-Free Therapy: A New Era of the Medicine
Authors: Pinheiro Araldi Rodrigo , Rafael Dias Pinto João , Kerkis Irina
Published: March 2024

Cellular and cell-free therapies have provided novel therapeutic opportunities for treating various incurable diseases. This is because the mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) produce a plethora of bioactive molecules able to target different biological pathways through extracellular vesicle-mediated paracrine mechanisms simultaneously. However, to share transcriptomic signatures with their origin tissue, it is expected that each MSC population has a unique molecular profiler. In this sense, to analyze the transcriptome of therapeutic cells, it is crucial to identify the molecular profiler of these cells to predict the potential clinical benefits promoted by these cells. Herein, we discuss the application of high-throughput RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) in the Pharma Intelligence Era, discussing and exemplifying how the combination of molecular biology with Analytics can revolutionize the Research, Development, & Innovation (RD&I) of advanced medicinal products.
Emerging Multilateral Cooperation and Reshaping Alliances in East Asia since the Late 1960s
Authors: Lee Junghoon
Published: March 2024

Since the late 1960s, the East Asian allies of the United States (U.S.) have prioritized security strategies based on the principles of “self-reliance” or “self-help.” Although the Republic of Korea (ROK, or South Korea), which was threatened by conventional arms from the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (North Korea), the context of “self-reliance” basically implies that nations are responsible for their own security requirements unless they are confronted with a potential nuclear threat. This was triggered by the Nixon shock of 1969, which resulted in a reduction of U.S. troops stationed in South Korea; however, nuclear weapons continued to be deployed. These U.S. troop reductions also occurred in Japan, but the changes in U.S. troop deployment differed. Several years after the Nixon administration, the U.S. government removed all troops and nuclear weapons from the Republic of China (ROC, or Taiwan). These adjustments were part of Nixon’s broader aim of global détente, leading to enhanced relations between the U.S. and the People’s Republic of China (China). Under these circumstances, each country pursued its national interests in different ways while striving for “self-reliance,” which sometimes included the development of its own nuclear weapons programs. Additionally, South Korea attempted to establish a framework for multilateral cooperation but was unsuccessful in achieving a multilateral security agreement. This chapter explores the transformation of bilateral alliances and multilateral cooperation in response to changes in the regional security environment. It utilizes previous studies and documents on the Foreign Relations of the United States (FRUS) and links them to the following examination of the historicity of multilateralism in East Asia.
Enhancing Inclusivity in Interviewing: Harnessing Intelligent Digital Avatars for Bias Mitigation
Authors: Salvetti Fernando , Bertagni Barbara
Published: March 2024

Interviewing is a critical process in various fields such as human resource management, psychology, and social sciences, serving as a fundamental tool for evaluation, selection, and research. However, this process is inherently susceptible to human bias, which can adversely affect the fairness and validity of outcomes, leading to discrimination and a lack of diversity. Addressing these biases is imperative to ensure fair and equitable practices. In this chapter, we introduce an innovative application designed to address this vulnerability allowing interviewers to practice with digital humans, powered by generative artificial intelligence, and learn how to mitigate such biases. These avatars embody a substantial representation of diversity and are designed with advanced social intelligence capabilities, enabling them to engage in realistic and dynamic interactions, present a range of topics engagingly, and simulate human-like emotional and mood responses. The avatars challenge interviewers to navigate complex, multifaceted interactions, thus honing their abilities to identify and overcome personal biases. Practicing conversations with digital humans accelerates learning from experience without the risks associated with learning in the field. After each interaction, the system provides immediate feedback, fostering self-awareness and performance improvement. The integration of intelligent digital avatars into the interviewing process holds great promise for enhancing inclusivity and reducing bias. By leveraging the power of artificial intelligence and extended reality, it is possible to create a more equitable and effective interview process beneficial for both interviewers and candidates. As this technology continues to develop, it has the potential to significantly transform the landscape of interviewing across a wide range of fields.
