ABSTRACT

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to propose a conceptual framework on the mediating influence of Work Engagement (WE) on the relationship between Person-Environment Fit (PE fit) and Adaptive Performance (AP) among nurses at the public hospitals in Malaysia. This paper is designed to focus on three PE fit dimensions, which are Person-Job Fit (PJ fit), Person-Group Fit (PG fit), and Person-Supervisor Fit (PS Fit) and its impact to employee’s adaptive performance by using Work Engagement as a mediator.

Design/Methodology/Approach: This is a causal study that has used quantitative methodology to draw propositions about the phenomenon under study.

Findings: The finding of the study is supported by two theories which are Theory of Performance (ToP) and Social Exchange Theory (SET). It is expected to produce significant relationship between PE Fit and AP by using a mediator of WE.

Implications/Originality/Value: The contribution of the study delivers useful information and adds knowledge to the literature pointing to increase their employees’ performance in public sector. For a practical implication, deep focus should be given to the factors that can enhance employees’ performance especially in public sector to ensure the employees in their organization are fully fitted with their working environment, thus can deliver the best service to customers. Social implication from the study is the application of adaptive performance concept will promote a healthy and positive working environment that can contribute to positive and healthy life in social community and practice fast respond to reduce the patients’ complaints regarding staff performance in public hospitals.

Authors: Susanti Fitri Indriana , Retnaningrum Endah
Published: December 2018

Numerical phenetic analysis was used to compare phenotypic data obtained from 6 isolates of pigmented bacteria strains taken from marine and river aquatic. Each strain was tested for 120 characters, analysed using the simple matching (SSM) and Jaccard (SJ) similarity indices with unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic mean (UPGMA) clustering method. All of the strains classified into two clusters, cluster A as marine pigmented bacteria and cluster B as river pigmented bacteria. Differences were observed between the dendrograms derived from the SSM and SJ. Presence of bacteriochlorophyll–a (Bchl–a), carotenoids, as well as other biochemical tests of three marine pigmented strains were in match with key characters of the genera Roseobacter, Roseateles, and Erythrobacter. Three of river pigmented strains were identified as Xanthobacter, Flavobacterium, and Pseudomonas. It was proved that the marine and river pigmented bacteria isolates showed a relative phenotypically distance. It was clearly seen that the phenetic approach was a necessary tool to delimitate and identify the pigmented bacteria from different habitats.

Published: December 2018

The objective of this study is to defines production space related to functional shift of library space into third space. This study refers to the theory of Lefebvre (1991) on social practice. Space in Lefebvre’s terminology is always a social space, so library space is assumed to be a social product. This study used ethnography with six digital native users as informants collected purposively. The data collection techniques were observation, interview, and literature study. The result showed that there was functional shift in UGM library space which were initially only for studying, then they became third space. UGM library space as social space is inseparable from and always related with social realities around them. UGM library is an intellectual knowledge institution where library users interact in physical and virtual environments to expand learning and facilitate the creation of new knowledge. In this context, library space is produced in such a way to preserve the dominant, so a social space only can be produced through socio-historical relation. Third space is a space formed from reproduction space (living space) due to integration on the space experienced and understood. The layout practice in UGM Library space showed that digital native users used them for various things.

Co-teaching in higher education: Reflections from an early career academic
Authors: Kelly Andrew
Published: December 2018

Co-teaching has been regularly used as a pedagogical tool in K-12 and postsecondary learning environments for decades, yet its practice in higher education institutions has only recently started to grow in popularity. This paper builds on recent recommendations for effective co-teaching in tertiary teaching settings by offering critical reflections and suggestions for practice from an early career academic that specialises in academic literacies. Key concepts explored include developing co-teaching norms and pedagogies through a community of practice, establishing two-way dialogue, diversifying strengths of teaching teams, and enforcing continual reflection and feedback. The paper also provides contextualised guidance notes, so that university educators and program managers have a clearer direction as to how co-teaching teams could be implemented across a range of higher education teaching programs.
Reinterpreting ‘Using Concept Maps in Law Schools to Foster Meaningful Learning: Evidence from a Pilot Study’ (Deplano, 2018)
Authors: Adekoya Cecilia
Published: December 2018

A reinterpretation piece: For Rossana Deplano, learning goes beyond memorisation and her article wishes to provide an alternative that can help students shift from learning for tests to learning meaningfully. The article considers the method of using concept maps, which are similar to mind maps, but are formed as hierarchies, starting with the topic and expanding to various points. Rossana also believes that the road to meaningful learning needs the involvement of the teacher to help the students make connections between the prior and new knowledge. Taking all of this into consideration, the article inspired me to think about my own learning experience, and I reinterpreted the piece in the form of a poem, called ‘Cycle’. It is loosely linked to Kolb’s learning cycle, simplified as ‘do, think, conclude, adapt’.

Published: December 2018

The aim of the article is to determine the role of local taxes and charges in local budgets’ income generation, as well as to conduct a comparative legal study of regulatory legal acts that determine the legal basis for local budgets’ income generation by local taxes and charges. The subject of the study is local taxes and charges in local budgets’ income generation. Methodology. The study is based on the dialectical method of scientific knowledge and corresponding general scientific methods, such as analysis, comparative, analogy, induction, and others. The results of the study revealed that to implement positive foreign experience in generating incomes of local budgets, a number of negative aspects should be restricted. Unfortunately, the ratio of subventions and subsidies in the incomes of local budgets of Ukraine demonstrate no positive trend. In Ukraine, local bodies have very little and weak powers even for the use of funds distributed via the budgetary system. Therefore, most of the funds transferred from the State Budget of Ukraine to local budgets, in reality, are only their imaginary income. Practical implications. Local taxes and fees in the context of their participation in local budgets’ income generation are under the study. Negative tendencies of a significant proportion of inter-budgetary transfers in the financial provision of regions and territorial communities are identified. The author argues that the increase in revenues from local taxes and charges, accretion of local bodies’ tax powers is aimed at ensuring the independence of local budgets, reducing the burden on the State Budget of Ukraine. Relevance/originality. A legal analysis of local taxes and charges in local budgets’ income generation and definition of problems in the budgetary sphere are the foundation for the development of the most promising spheres for domestic legislation improvement in respect of the aspect.

Published: December 2018

Concern over the pressing problem on communication skill is evident among the Filipino Hotel and Restaurant Management (HRM) students and graduates as revealed in observations and several studies. The condition posed challenges to both teachers and students as it was commonly observed by the language teachers and the researchers themselves. Hence, the importance of this qualitative research, which, by using a semi-structured interview, was conducted with the primary objective of determining the level of sociolinguistic competence of HRM interns relative to register and dialect, cultural reference, and metaphorical language. Twenty-five participants were purposively chosen based on the following considerations: the availability and flexibility of schedule; ability to communicate in English; had undergone on-the-job training for the last two semesters. The researchers considered the respondents’ work experience, work assignment and type of establishment as baseline data of the study. In determining the participants’ sociolinguistic competence, the researchers used the semi-constructed interview questions which were validated by language experts. The frequency and percentage were used to determine the respondents’ profile and standard rubrics for their responses. Cohen’s Kappa Interpretation was also used to determine the level of sociolinguistic competence. The study revealed that majority of the respondents worked as a housekeeper, assigned at the back of the house, and worked in the hotels. It also disclosed that trainees were found to be in Beginning Level with regard to their level of sociolinguistic competence. Interpersonal communication intervention may be proposed to Hotel and Restaurant Management department for implementation to improve students’ sociolinguistic competence.

Hoiva ruokahävikin vähentämisen arkisissa käytännöissä
Authors: Koskinen Outi , Mattila Malla , Närvänen Elina , Mesiranta Nina
Published: December 2018

This article explores the ways through which care manifests in everyday food waste reduction practices. The article is positioned within a more-than-human approach, which emphasises blurred ontological and epistemological boundaries among and across (assemblages of) humans, nonhumans, things and issues (re)forming sociomaterial worlds. Drawing empirical insights from (n)ethnographic materials that have been generated in an ongoing research project focusing on consumers as active reducers of food waste, the article discusses three overlapping ways (labour/work, affect/affection and ethics/politics) through which we care for and live with food waste in both research and everyday life. Labour/work entails hands-on relations with food (waste), wherein food is understood as an active participant in the reduction practices. In affective practices, food waste reduction is closely attached to our bodies (and other bodies) as well as the senses of sight, touch and smell. Through ethico-political doings, food waste reduction becomes a collective issue, encompassing, for instance, gendered division of labour. The article argues for understanding food waste as a matter of care and maps out the consequences of such understanding for environmental-political agency.

Mitigation of climate change urges to reduce our meat consumption. This necessitates new eating practices and ways of thinking about food. In this paper we discuss how experimentative research can participate in making such changes. We introduce notions of pragmatic tinkering, speculative thinking and ethical discussion and evaluate their contribution to understanding of change in everyday practices. We investigate their prospects in relation to our experiments with sustainable school dining. In these experiments we introduced a free vegetarian choice to school meals and engaged pupils in their development. The results highlight the dynamic nature of change in everyday practices. The notion of tinkering highlights the small adjustments needed to reconcile the different goals in school dining. Our results stress that the practical adjustments easily uphold the conventional practices. Speculative thinking is needed in challenging them. In our experiments, the engagement of pupils opened places for hesitation, and eventually also to new ways of thinking about school food. The pupils also challenged our experiments. They reminded how eating is entangled to our shared cultural meanings on food, but also to our identity and understandings of gender. In future, experimentative research should build settings, which allow them becoming more multiple as well.
Determination of Viral Nucleic Acid in the Human Blood
Authors: Abdurashitov M. A. , Netesova N. A.
Published: December 2018

Many acute viral infections cause similar clinical symptoms, therefore, establishing the etiology of a viral disease requires the use of whole complexes of serological or PCR tests designed to detect a particular type of pathogen. Modern methods of molecular biology allow early diagnosis of viral diseases at a time when serological diagnostic methods are not yet effective. The aim of the work was to analyze molecular diagnostic methods that allow the determination of viral nucleic acids in human blood. The article presents the classification of molecular methods for the diagnosis of viral particles in clinical specimens. Methods such asin situhybridization, reverse transcription reaction (RT-PCR), nested PCR, multiplex PCR, as well as DNA microarray technology, and the method of massive parallel sequencing are considered in detail. Particular attention is paid to NGS-technologies that were used in virology almost immediately after their appearance and allowed for detection of a number of new types of human viruses (including representatives of anelloviruses, picornaviruses, polyomaviruses, etc.). The advantages and problems associated with the application of these methods in clinical practice, as well as the prospects for their improvement are discussed.

Published: December 2018

In accordance with the State Pharmacopoeia (SPh) requirements for live plague vaccine, a reference standard has to be used when testing the specific activity and thermal stability of plague vaccine commercial batches in order to assess the consistency and acceptability of the test results. Since there is no international reference standard for plague vaccine, the certification of a new batch of the industry reference standard (IRS) of live plague vaccine in terms of the above-mentioned quality parameters is an urgent challenge. Therefore, a certification programme for the industry reference standard was developed that establishes the design and scope of testing required to obtain statistically significant results. A candidate IRS was represented by a commercial batch of the product meeting the specification requirements for live plague vaccine. The certification parameters were: «Specific activity: microbial cell concentration», «Specific activity: live microbial cell percentage» and «Thermal stability». The article presents the results of the certification of a new batch of the live plague vaccine IRS, detailed evaluation of the candidate IRS in terms of: «Average weight and uniformity of weight», «Loss on drying», and statistical interpretation of the test results. It also summarises the results of the product testing in terms of «Specific activity: immunogenicity». The results of application of the previous batch of the live plague vaccine IRS (OSO 42-28-392-2013) and the results of monitoring the stability of its certification parameters demonstrated that the IRS shelf life could be extended by 6 months relative to the established period (from 2 to 2.5 years). All the certified and additional characteristics are reflected in the official documents for the scientific/technological product — live plague vaccine IRS, OSO 42-28-392-2017: passport, labelling and patient information leaflet.
Near Real-time S-AIS

Published: December 2018

The Automatic identification System (AIS) has been mainly designed to improve safety and efficiency of navigation, environmental protection, coastal traffic monitoring simplifying identification and communication. Additionally, historical AIS data have been used in many other areas of maritime safety, economic and environmental research. The probability of the detection of terrestrial AIS signals from space was presented in 2003, following the advancements in micro satellite technology. Through constant development, research and cooperation between governmental and private sectors, Satellite AIS (S-AIS) has been continuously evolving. Advancements in signal and data processing techniques have resulted in an improved detection over vast areas outside of terrestrial range. Some of the challenges of S-AIS technology include satellite revisit times, message collision and ship detection probability. Data processing latency and lacking the continuous real-time coverage made it less reliable for end user in certain aspects of monitoring and data analysis. Recent developments and improvements by leading S-AIS service providers have reduced latency issues. Complementing with terrestrial AIS and other technologies, near real-time S-AIS can further enhance all areas of the global maritime monitoring domain with emerging possibilities for maritime industry.

Published: December 2018

This paper estimates the exhaust gases emissions from ships in the international marine traffic in the port of Zadar. The emission results refer to the pollutants such as nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulphur oxides (SOx), particulate matter (PM), volatile organic compounds (VOC) and greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2). The methodology that has been applied, so called “bottom-up” approach, uses detailed data on ship’s characteristics (engine power, the load factor, fuel type, the emission factor) and time spent cruising and hotelling. The estimated inventory for the port of Zadar includes overall marine traffic from the passenger and cargo terminals. The exhaust gases emissions have been divided into three ship’s activities: cruising in the reduce speed zone, hotelling (at berth) and manoeuvring. The results (tons/year) have shown that approximately 80% of total emissions come from passenger ships and 20% from cargo ships.

Previous research has shown that individuals with greater cognitive abilities display a greater speed of higher-order cognitive processing. These results suggest that speeded neural information processing may facilitate evidence accumulation during decision making and memory updating and thus yield advantages in general cognitive abilities. We used a hierarchical Bayesian cognitive modeling approach to test the hypothesis that individual differences in the velocity of evidence accumulation mediate the relationship between neural processing speed and cognitive abilities. We found that a higher neural speed predicted both the velocity of evidence accumulation across behavioral tasks and cognitive ability test scores. However, only a negligible part of the association between neural processing speed and cognitive abilities was mediated by individual differences in the velocity of evidence accumulation. The model demonstrated impressive forecasting abilities by predicting 36% of individual variation in cognitive ability test scores in an entirely new sample solely based on their electrophysiological and behavioral data. Our results suggest that individual differences in neural processing speed might affect a plethora of higher-order cognitive processes, that only in concert explain the large association between neural processing speed and cognitive abilities, instead of the effect being entirely explained by differences in evidence accumulation speeds.

Transyogi Road is the main road used by transportation originating from the Depok city, Bogor district, Bekasi city and Bekasi district. The Transyogi Road and the networks connected to it have experienced a significant increase in traffic density each year, this fact is based on the indicator level of the VC ratio on the Transyogi and surrounding road segments which have reached 0.8 at busy times. With the increase in trips generated from Bekasi Regency and an increase in residential density in Depok and Bogor, it has the potential to increase generation and the traffic attraction from and to the area is affecting by the construction of the Cimanggis - Cibitung toll road. This Traffic Impact Analysis aims to predict the impact of the construction of the Cimanggis - Cibitung Toll Road on the Jatikarya exit, and determine the form of improvement needed, harmonize the decisions regarding land use with traffic conditions, the number and location of access, and alternative improvements . This study method uses 4 (four) transportation modeling, analysis of road capacity, vehicle speed .. From the results of this study, it was concluded that before the toll road the Transyogi road had a performance with a V / C ratio of 0.8 and an average speed of 20 km / hour (if do nothing), while after the exit of the jatikarya toll was operated the V / C ratio was 0.7 and the average speed is 23 km / h (do nothing). While the performance of Transyogi road in the design year 2025 without performing geometric improvements (do nothing) has a road performance with a V / C ratio of 0.98 and an average speed of 12-13 km / hr. While if performance changes are made with capacity building traffic management arrangements, predictive traffic conditions in 2025 traffic performance will be obtained with a v / c ratio of an average of 0.7 with an average speed of 26 km / hour (do something).

Online and sensor technologies promise to transform many areas of psychological enquiry. However, collecting and analyzing this data is challenging. In this paper, we introduce the unforgettable.me experience sampling platform. unforgettable.me includes an app that can collect image, GPS, accelerometry and audio data in a continual fashion and upload the data to a server. The data is then automatically augmented using online databases to identify the address, type of location and weather conditions as well as providing street view imagery. In addition, machine learning classifiers are run to identify aspects such as voice and traffic. The augmented data is available to participants in the form of a keyword search interface as well as several visualization mechanisms. In addition, Unforgettable Research Services partners with If This Then That (IFTTT) and so can accumulate data from any of over six hundred sources including social media, wearables and other devices. Through IFTTT, buttons can be added as icons to smartphones to allow participants to register mood conveniently, behaviors and physiological states like happiness, microaggressions or illness. Furthermore, unforgettable.me incorporates a mechanism that allows researchers to run experiments and analyze data within an authenticated environment without viewing users’ private data.
American Beauty Standards: “Paling” in Comparison to the White Norm.
Authors: Marrinan Kristen
Published: December 2018

America has a culturally accepted norm of what makes someone beautiful. A standard that is hard to meet. Being light-skinned, blonde and blue-eyed is the benchmark of beauty, of what is most desirable. But is that really what it takes to be attractive in America? This research examines the relationship between race, birth-place, ethnicity and self-rated attractiveness. The General Social Survey (2016) provides the quantitative data for this study. While past literature explores the connections between identity, self-esteem, and attractiveness, it does not explore the intersection of different identifying characteristics. Group position and Colourism approaches provide the theoretical foundations for the hypothesis and the research conducted in this paper. These theories also help explain why certain physical attributes are more valuable in American society. So how does the privileging of White America, specifically when measuring beauty, influence one’s opinion of their own attractiveness? This study has 1,622 respondents—non-institutionalized, English or Spanish speaking adults, who live in the country. Multiple regression analysis was used to examine the individual and collaborative relationships between the variables. The results from this study concur with some of findings from the literature. Yet, they do not support the hypotheses. The results concluded that being Non-White had little influence on one's self-rated attractiveness. Similarly, birthplace and ethnicity had no statistical significance. However, the controls, age and sex, are significant. This research explores the role identity plays in one’s view of their own beauty. Especially during a period of controversial leadership and drastic shifts in the social norms of society.
