Published: December 2019

A leader must have a good competence to successfully bring the organization for its intended purpose. If a led organization is engaged in education field, of course a leader must also have a competence that qualified both skill, science, and experience in the field of education. However, related to that, it also found some problems about leadership, namely the leader is less exemplary discipline, less competent in the field, less provide guidance, less coordination and unable to make their own decisions. Based on the above things, this study aims to find out how the leadership in the field of basic education (DIKDAS) is, what factors affect the leadership in the field of basic education (DIKDAS), and what effort are being made to improve the leadership in the field of basic education (DIKDAS) at Dinas Pendidikan Balangan district.

The location of research is at the office of Dinas Pendidikan Balangan district. The approach used is a qualitative approach with a qualitative description type. Data collection technique used are interviews, observation, and documentation. The source of data is amounted to 14 people. After the data collected, then analyzed through 3 stages, namely data editing, data presentation, and verification or drawing conclusion.

The result of the research indicate that the leadership in the field of basic education (DIKDAS) has not been entirely good. This can be seen from the side of responsibility that is less independent as a leader and does not have the desire to excel. On the other hand, the leader in the field of basic education (DIKDAS) is considered to have capacity in the from of intelligence, speech and judgment ability. From the aspect of achievement is an appropriate bachelor degree and a quite estensive knowledge. From the aspect of responsibility is a quite good initiative, diligent, tenacious, and confident. From the aspect of participation, that is active, have high sociability, cooperative, and able to adjust. The factors that influence leadership are the expertise and employee loyalty to leader, education and training experience, and the leader’s intelligence. Then, the effort to improve the leadership is delegation of tasks to subordinates, the approach by the leadership to subordinates and training as well as discussion.

The suggestions to improve the leadership in the field of basic education (DIKDAS) are the leaders need to be a motivator for subordinates, have the attitude of independence, one of them is able to make their own decisions that precarious, and have the desire to excel in order to spur achievement.

Maternidades en disputa: El país bajo mi piel y la apropiación del discurso
Authors: Palazón Sáez Gema D.
Published: December 2019

El artículo busca dilucidar principalmente dos cuestiones en torno a la obra El país bajo mi piel de Gioconda Belli: precisar cómo se construye el yo en un texto híbrido que mezcla memoria, autobiografía y testimonio, y analizar la función de subvertir el discurso patriarcal sobre la maternidad. En el primer punto, se observa que Belli forja un yo testimonial insoslayable de un yo poético; con ellos legitima su posición de sujeto frente a la historia reciente de Nicaragua, a través de la memoria y la reelaboración estética. En el segundo, se descubre que el discurso de Belli reformula retóricas de origen patriarcal para subvertirlas y reivindicar su papel como sujeto y tener un lugar en la historia de la revolución social nicaragüense. Resignificando el cuerpo femenino como discurso político, expone un “maternalismo” adaptado a un feminismo militante, y llevándolo del ámbito de lo privado a lo público.

Magnetic-field-aligned Electric Fields and Nonresonant Acceleration in Alfvénic Turbulence
Authors: Ragot B. R.
Published: December 2019

Backward-propagating or reverse fluctuations in Alfvénic turbulence are shown to produce magnetic-field-aligned (MFA) electric fields capable of highly intermittent acceleration of particles along the local mean magnetic field. Probability distribution functions (PDFs) for the angles

between magnetic and electric local mean fields in the plane perpendicular to the background magnetic field are calculated both analytically and through Monte Carlo simulations as functions of the fraction

of reverse fluctuations. The PDFs peak at

but quickly broaden as

increases, up to the limit of a uniform PDF for

or zero cross-helicity. Energy from a mixture of forward- and backward-propagating Alfvén waves can easily be transferred to the plasma, through the intermittent MFA electric fields, on a timescale much shorter than the Kolmogorov timescale for turbulence cascade. In such a mixture, for typical 1 au solar wind turbulence parameters, nonresonant interaction through the MFA electric fields rather than gyroresonance controls the energy exchanges between turbulent fields and particles. Possible consequences of the nonresonant interaction through the MFA fields are further suggested, from the observed fast variations of solar wind speed and resulting

spectral flattening above 10−2 Hz, and the turbulence level variability/intermittency near 1 au, to the powering of chromospheric jets/spicules in the upper chromosphere and heating of the chromosphere, transition region, and corona, due to the high reflection rate of Alfvén waves in the upper chromosphere. Conditions for the direct proton acceleration (jet formation) in the chromosphere include a temperature ≤104 K and a magnetic field between about 10 and 100 G.
The Fate of Asymptotic Giant Branch Winds in Massive Galaxies and the Intracluster Medium
Authors: Li Yuan , Bryan Greg L. , Quataert Eliot
Published: December 2019

Winds from asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars not only provide mass and energy return, but also produce dust grains in massive elliptical galaxies. Due to the fast stellar velocity, the wind is thought to form a comet-like tail, similar to Mira in the Local Bubble. Many massive elliptical galaxies and cluster centrals host extended dusty cold filaments. We carry out both analytical and numerical studies of the interaction between an AGB wind and the surrounding hot gas. We find that the cooling time of the tail is inversely proportional to the ambient pressure. In the absence of cooling, or in low-pressure environments (e.g., the outskirts of elliptical galaxies), AGB winds are quickly mixed into the hot gas, and all the AGB winds have a similar appearance and head-to-tail ratio. In high-pressure environments, such as the Local Bubble and the central regions of massive elliptical galaxies, some of the gas in the mixing layer between the stellar wind and the surrounding hot gas can cool efficiently and cause the tail to become longer. Our simulated tail of Mira itself has a similar length and velocity to that observed, and appears similar to the simulated AGB tail in the central regions of massive galaxies. While confirmation awaits future studies, we speculate that instead of thermal instability, the induced condensation at the mixing layer of AGB winds may be the origin of cold filaments in massive galaxies and galaxy clusters. This naturally explains the existence of dust and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon in the filaments.

We present reverberation-mapping (RM) lags and black hole mass measurements using the C iv
λ1549 broad emission line from a sample of 348 quasars monitored as a part of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey RM Project. Our data span four years of spectroscopic and photometric monitoring for a total baseline of 1300 days, allowing us to measure lags up to ∼750 days in the observed frame (this corresponds to a rest-frame lag of ∼300 days in a quasar at z = 1.5 and ∼190 days at z = 3). We report significant time delays between the continuum and the C iv
λ1549 emission line in 48 quasars, with an estimated false-positive detection rate of 10%. Our analysis of marginal lag measurements indicates that there are on the order of ∼100 additional lags that should be recoverable by adding more years of data from the program. We use our measurements to calculate black hole masses and fit an updated C iv radius–luminosity relationship. Our results significantly increase the sample of quasars with C iv RM results, with the quasars spanning two orders of magnitude in luminosity toward the high-luminosity end of the C iv radius–luminosity relation. In addition, these quasars are located at some of the highest redshifts (z ≈ 1.4–2.8) of quasars with black hole masses measured with RM. This work constitutes the first large sample of C iv RM measurements in more than a dozen quasars, demonstrating the utility of multiobject RM campaigns.
The ALMA Spectroscopic Survey in the HUDF: Constraining Cumulative CO Emission at 1 ≲ z ≲ 4 with Power Spectrum Analysis of ASPECS LP Data from 84 to 115 GHz

We present a power spectrum analysis of the ALMA Spectroscopic Survey Large Program (ASPECS LP) data from 84 to 115 GHz. These data predominantly probe small-scale fluctuations (k = 10–100 h Mpc−1) in the aggregate CO emission in galaxies at 1≲ z ≲ 4. We place an integral constraint on CO luminosity functions (LFs) in this redshift range via a direct measurement of their second moments in the three-dimensional (3D) autopower spectrum, finding a total CO shot-noise power

μK2 (Mpc h
−1)3. This upper limit (3σ) is consistent with the observed ASPECS CO LFs in Decarli et al. but rules out a large space in the range of

inferred from these LFs, which we attribute primarily to large uncertainties in the normalization Φ* and knee L
* of the Schechter-form CO LFs at z > 2. Also, through power spectrum analyses of ASPECS LP data with 415 positions from galaxies with available optical spectroscopic redshifts, we find that contributions to the observed mean CO intensity and shot-noise power of MUSE galaxies are largely accounted for by ASPECS blind detections. Finally, we sum the fluxes from individual blind CO detections to yield a lower limit on the mean CO surface brightness at 99 GHz of

μK, which we estimate represents 68%–80% of the total CO surface brightness at this frequency.
Asteroid Photometry from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite: A Pilot Study
Authors: McNeill A. , Mommert M. , Trilling D. E. , Llama J. , Skiff B.
Published: December 2019

The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) searches for planets transiting bright and nearby stars using high-cadence, large-scale photometric observations. Full frame images provided by the TESS mission include a large number of serendipitously observed main-belt asteroids (MBAs). Due to the cadence of the published full frame images, we are sensitive to periods as long as of order tens of days, a region of phase space that is generally not accessible through traditional observing. This work represents a much less biased measurement of the period distribution in this period range. We have derived rotation periods for 300 MBAs and have partial lightcurves for a further 7277 asteroids, including 43 with periods of P > 100 hr; this large number of slow rotators is predicted by theory. Of these slow rotators we find none requiring significant internal strength to resist rotational reshaping. We find our derived rotation periods to be in excellent agreement with results in the Lightcurve Database for the 55 targets that overlap. Over the nominal two-year lifetime of the mission, we expect the detection of around 85,000 unique asteroids with rotation period solutions for around 6000 asteroids. We project that the systematic analysis of the entire TESS data set will increase the number of known slow-rotating asteroids (period > 100 hr) by a factor of 10. Comparing our new period determinations with previous measurements in the literature, we find that the rotation period of asteroid (2320) Blarney has decreased by at least 20% over the past decade, potentially due to surface activity or subcatastrophic collisions.

BACKGROUND: Breast cancer incidence is fast increasing, posing a significant threat to the health of women of all races globally. In Nigeria, breast cancer causes the most cancer-related deaths among women each year as a result of inadequate awareness.
AIM: This study is aimed at examining the moderating role of demographic characteristics in facilitating breast cancer awareness among women, and how it relates to their behavioural disposition to the disease.
METHODS: The study adopted the descriptive (survey) and cross-sectional research designs to elicit information from women of adult age selected across five Local Government Areas in Ogun state. The data, collected through questionnaire were analysed through the use of a variance-based SEM Partial Least Square (PLS).
RESULTS: The result shows that demographic characteristics (age and education) has a significant positive effect and jointly explain 74.9% of the variance in the breast cancer awareness and behavioural disposition among women in the study area. The findings revealed that a significant number of women with breast cancer had not acquired useful knowledge that could potentially be used to diagnose, prevent, and manage the disease. Unfortunately, the practice of Breast Self-Examination is grossly low among Nigerian women, as a consequence, only 20-30% of the women in study areas, including professionals, are aware of the benefits of BSE and only a smaller percentage practice BSE.
CONCLUSION: There is, therefore, a need to educate women on the benefits of this simple life-saving procedure through the consistent use of media platforms.
Evaluation of the private participation in the implementation and management of ecotourism in cavernas do Peruaçu national park, Brazil
Authors: Araujo Hugo Rodrigues de , Lobo Heros Augusto Santos , Travassos Luiz Eduardo Panisset
Published: December 2019

In the last two decades, Brazil has advanced in the creation of Natural Protected Areas (NPAs), reaching more than 17% of its territory. However, the budget allocated for the effectiveness of NPAs is still insufficient, creating gaps that hinder these areas from fulfilling their purposes. The Cavernas do Peruaçu National Park (PNCP) was created in 1999. Its ecotourism infrastructure was conceived and built from 2011 to 2015 and opened to the public in 2017. The implementation of the PNCP differs from other NPAs under the responsibility of the federal government management in Brazil, since it involves private resources from companies with legal obligations to environmental compensation. In this context, a study on the PNCP was carried out, with primary and secondary data analysed. The research aimed at report the process of the PNCP implementation as well as presenting the current state of management and prospects for this Park. With the results obtained, it was possible to conclude that the experience of a partnership between the public power and the private initiative is a practical possibility for the implementation and management of ecotourism, expanding its socioeconomic sustainability and contributing to the goals of nature conservation.Key words: national parks, ecotourism, natural heritage, archaeological sites.Prispevek zasebnikov pri vzpostavitvi in upravljanju ekoturizma v jamah narodnega parka Cavernas do Šeruaçu, BrazilijaBrazilija je v zadnjih dveh desetletjih razvijala program zaščitenih naravnih območij, ki danes zavzemajo 17 % površine države.

Analyse de l'utilisation asymétrique du pouvoir dans les conflits miniers au Pérou
Authors: Cardinaël Céline , Petit Olivier
Published: December 2019

Cet article s’intéresse aux conflits miniers au Pérou, à partir d’une grille d’analyse relevant de la Political ecology et mettant plus particulièrement l’accent sur l’importance d’une utilisation asymétrique du pouvoir. Après avoir dressé un état des lieux des relations que l'État péruvien entretient avec la question minière et les facteurs historiques et territoriaux qui permettent de comprendre pourquoi la question minière exacerbe une asymétrie de pouvoir déjà très prégnante au Pérou, l’article se concentre sur le cas du conflit minier de Conga, pour illustrer comment les éléments avancés au plan national se matérialisent dans ce cas emblématique. Les auteurs discutent ensuite des enseignements que l'on peut tirer de la grille d'analyse et de ce cas d'étude au regard d'autres conflits socio-environnementaux au Pérou et plus largement, au regard des enjeux de justice environnementale. Enfin, le texte conclut sur les enjeux du post-extractivisme et sur ses conditions de faisabilité, compte-tenu de la persistance d'une situation où le pouvoir demeure inégalement réparti.
Entre dire et faire : discours scientifique sur le changement climatique et adaptation du système ferroviaire français
Authors: Dépoues Vivian , Vanderlinden Jean-Paul , Venturini Tommaso
Published: December 2019

Cet article étudie le décalage entre des discours scientifiques sur le changement climatique qui se veulent générateurs de dynamiques ambitieuses d’adaptation et la réalité de leur prise en compte dans la gestion des grands réseaux d’infrastructures. Autour de l’étude détaillée d’une portion du système ferroviaire du sud de la France, particulièrement soumise aux aléas climatiques, il commence par décrire où et comment apparaît la question climatique depuis le temps long des grands projets jusqu’aux problématiques quotidiennes des circulations ferroviaires. Ce travail d’enquête met en lumière, à partir d’une étude documentaire et d’un corpus d’entretiens semi-directifs, une appréhension réelle du phénomène, mais sur un mode incrémental plutôt que transformatif. Il interroge cette approche, au regard des caractéristiques du climat qui change d’une part (incertitude, variabilité) et du contexte ferroviaire confronté à de multiples défis (par ex. : renouvellement, libéralisation) d’autre part. L’article montre l’adaptation au changement climatique telle qu’elle s’observe aujourd’hui, comme résultat des interactions entre le discours scientifique et la réalité complexe des organisations.

One important potential barrier is patent infringement litigation. In this study, we review the relationship between US patent features and US patent litigations, identify potential patent risk factors, and quantitatively evaluate patent infringement litigation risk. We find that certain factors do have significant impacts. By identifying these risk factors, we may manage product development strategies and patent application strategies to avoid being litigated by competitors. The difference between patents filed before and after the Leahy–Smith America Invents Act is also reported.
Let’s Start Here: Relationships, Resilience, Relevance
Authors: Hildenbrand Wendy C.
Published: December 2019

The occupational therapy profession has been experiencing substantial growing pains, and the environment presents uncertainty and opportunities. The profession has experienced the swing from the celebratory high of the American Occupational Therapy Association’s (AOTA’s) 2017 Centennial Celebration to the reality of internal and external challenges related to entry-level professional preparation, payment and practice shifts, and new service delivery directives—all during a contentious political, economic, and societal climate. Three Rs—relationships, resilience, and relevance—can guide the profession in a focus on restoring and creating meaningful yet strategic relationships, embracing a collective strength and capacity for personal and professional resilience, and committing to innovative action to ensure occupational therapy’s relevance as a health and human services profession. This Inaugural Presidential Address offers a message of simplicity and hope for the occupational therapy profession as well as a declaration of the AOTA president’s own grounding values and focus.

O objetivo geral do estudo foi analisar como o ensino de Ciências Naturais desenvolvido na Escola Família Agrícola de Baixão do Carlos contempla práticas e conhecimentos sobre a agricultura familiar camponesa. O estudo foi realizado por meio de pesquisa descritiva, de abordagem qualitativa, por ser esta a que melhor se adequou aos objetivos da investigação. Como instrumento de coleta de dados foi utilizado a entrevista semiestruturada, realizada com a professora de Ciências. Também, foi feita a análise documental dos livros didáticos e do Projeto Político Pedagógico da Escola. O cenário da pesquisa foi a Escola Família Agrícola de Baixão do Carlos, localizada no município de Teresina (PI). Os resultados apontam que o ensino de Ciências Naturais desenvolvido na Escola Família Agrícola de Baixão do Carlos não contempla práticas e conhecimentos sobre agricultura familiar camponesa, assim como, os livros didáticos da disciplina de Ciências trabalhados nas turmas de 6° ao 9° ano do Ensino Fundamental também não dispõem de conteúdos sobre esse tema. Os conhecimentos e práticas da agricultura familiar camponesa são trabalhados, exclusivamente, nas disciplinas de Agricultura e Zootecnia ministradas nas turmas de 6° ao 9° ano do Ensino Fundamental. Dessa forma, é necessário desenvolver práticas educativas interdisciplinares, em que as disciplinas obrigatórias sejam trabalhadas articuladas as disciplinas das áreas técnicas, de modo que, os educandos tenham a oportunidade de participar de atividades educativas significativas, que contribuam para articulação da teoria e prática e melhoria da qualidade de vida no campo.
Home advantage in European international soccer: which dimension of distance matters?
Authors: Van Damme Nils , Baert Stijn
Published: December 2019

The authors investigate whether the home advantage in soccer differs by various dimensions of distance between the (regions of the) home and away teams: geographical distance, climatic differences, cultural distance, and disparities in economic prosperity. To this end, the authors analyse 2,012 recent matches played in the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League by means of several regression models. They find that when the home team plays at a higher altitude, they benefit substantially more from their home advantage. Every 100 meters of altitude difference is associated with an increase in expected probability to win the match, as the home team, by 1.1 percentage points. The other dimensions of distance are not significantly associated with a higher or lower home advantage. By contrast, the authors find that the home advantage in soccer is more outspoken when the number of spectators is higher and when the home team is substantially stronger than the away team.

Abstract. Zooplankton play an important role in global biogeochemistry and their secondary production supports valuable fisheries of the world's oceans. Currently, zooplankton abundances cannot be estimated using remote sensing techniques. Hence, coupled physical-biogeochemical models (PBMs) provide an important tool for studying zooplankton on regional and global scales. However, evaluating the accuracy of zooplankton abundance estimates from PBMs has been a major challenge as a result of sparse observations. In this study, we configure a PBM for the Gulf of Mexico (GoM) from 1993–2012 and validate the model against an extensive combination of in situ biomass and rate measurements including total mesozooplankton biomass, size-fractionated mesozooplankton biomass and grazing rates, microzooplankton specific grazing rates, surface chlorophyll, deep chlorophyll maximum depth, phytoplankton specific growth rates, and net primary production. Spatial variability in mesozooplankton biomass climatology observed in a multi-decadal database for the northern GoM is well resolved by the model with a statistically significant (p
Proposal for Generic Characterization of Electrical Test Benches for AC- and HVDC-Connected Wind Power Plants

Abstract. The electrical test and assessment of wind turbines (WT) are going hand in hand with standards and network connection requirements. In this paper, the latest developments in the testing of the electrical characteristics of WTs, including IEC standards, compliance test methods, and industrial test benches, are studied. In this paper, the general structure of advanced electrical test benches, including grid emulator or controllable grid interface (CGI), wind torque emulator and device under test (DUT), has been proposed to harmonize the available industrial test sites. The AC and HVDC transmission systems impose different electrical characteristics on wind power plants (WPP). HVDC connection leads to a converter-based grid, yet AC connection has different grid characteristics in terms of grid impedance, short circuit ratio (SCR), inertia, and background harmonics. Therefore, this paper recommends performing compliance tests in two divisions as AC- and HVDC-connected WTs using a converter-based CGI and emulate the corresponding AC grid for DUT. Also, this paper recommends the additional tests for the current version of IEC 61400-21-1. The additional tests consist of test options for new features of modernWTs, such as Grid-forming, system restoration, and black start capabilities, as well as emulation of different grid characteristics, such as detailed power system, inertia, SCR, and different grid connection emulations for DUT. This way, the possibility of research, development, and demonstration studies on WTs and WPPs would increase. The proposed additional tests can be implemented using the available advanced test benches by adjusting their control systems. Since most of the industrial test benches are based on converters, the characteristics of a real power system can be emulated by a CGI coupled with real-time digital simulator (RTDS) systems through high-bandwidth power-hardware-in-the-loop (PHIL) interface.
Introduction: The Public Purposes of General Education
Authors: Koritz Amy
Published: December 2019

As higher education struggles to prepare students for a rapidly changing work environment, general education is receiving renewed attention. At the same time, due in large part to American Association of Colleges & University's research and advocacy supporting High Impact Practices, community-engaged pedagogies such as service learning (aka community-engaged or community-based learning), have emerged as important strategies for increasing student success. In this environment, general education takes on a variety of sometimes contradictory roles. The success of the Portland State University Studies program in weaving impactful community engagement into its general education curriculum shows the rest of us how powerful evidence-based best practices can be when higher education takes them seriously.
Begin it Now: Critical Service Learning in the First Year of College
Authors: Estes J. R. “Jones” , Carey Chris , Tavares Debra , Del Mar David Peterson
Published: December 2019

While there is a rich array of community-based learning activities and approaches across the Portland State University campus, the authors assert that integrating a critical service learning (CSL), rather than traditional service learning (TSL), model in the first-year curriculum benefits both students and community partners. They advocate for scaffolding CSL throughout the college curriculum beginning in the first year so that as students move through their courses they repeatedly practice the dynamic skill set CSL develops. To that end, they utilize a CSL Process Framework of five essential steps to consider when scaffolding it within the first year: The Plan, Etiquette of Collaboration, Critical Reflection, Engaging Student Agency, and Civic Professionalism (Estes, 2018). The authors describe how each element manifests in three very different examples of CSL within their respective Freshman Inquiry courses. Although this article focuses upon CSL in the first year of college, the CSL Process Framework is applicable across course levels. After presenting examples of how each element manifests as they integrate CSL into their courses and careers, the authors discuss the challenges and implications of this work within their courses, University Studies, and general education.
Taking High-Impact Practices to Scale in Capstone and Peer Mentor Programs, and Revising University Studies' Diversity Learning Goal

Published: December 2019

University Studies, Portland State University's general education program, is now more than twenty years old; its leaders frequently answer questions from other higher education institutions regarding how the program takes high-impact practices to scale. In this article, three program leaders detail how University Studies' Peer Mentor and Senior Capstone Programs and one recently revised diversity learning goal demonstrate the opportunities and challenges of taking high-impact practices to scale. This article used published assessments of the program, experiences by current program leaders, and interviews from faculty members and peer mentors. Overall, the coauthors conclude that three dynamic qualities contribute to a scaling up of its programs and curricular initiatives: (1) focus on University Studies' aspirational goals; (2) interplay between scaling up and scaling inward—acknowledging the agency of its teaching and learning community to address challenges and effect change; and (3) collaborative and engaged leadership. These findings suggest that, contrary to notions that running a program of this scale only addresses budgets and staffing needs, University Studies adapts to change because it built a dynamic and aspirational framework across its general education program.
A Strategic Variance Analysis of the Profitability of U.S. Network Air Carriers
Authors: Caster Paul , Scheraga Carl A.
Published: December 2019

Airlines, as part of their strategic planning process, articulate positions with regard to cost leadership, product differentiation, and growth. Decisions implemented are dynamic and inter-temporal in nature. Therefore, it is often difficult to assess the effectiveness of changes in strategies, particularly since such effectiveness is often a function of the confounding forces of organizational strategy and market conditions. Managers thus need a multi-period methodology to evaluate the implementation of strategic positions. One such approach is the strategic variance analysis of operating income. Horngren et al. (2000, 2006, 2012) demonstrate a methodological template for decomposing operating income into three components: (1) growth, (2) price recovery, and (3) productivity. It is suggested that the price recovery component assesses a firm’s product differentiation strategy and that the productivity component assesses a firm’s low-cost strategy. Thus, this framework is very much in the spirit of Porter’s (1980) seminal work.This study examines U.S. network airlines in the post-9/11 environment. Utilizing the above methodology, it first identifies comparative strategic positions across airlines and then assesses the implementation efficacy of these positions.
