Can Standardizing Applicant High School and Neighborhood Information Help to Diversify Selective Colleges?
Authors: Mabel Zachary , Hurwitz Michael D. , Howell Jessica , Perfetto Greg
Published: March 2022

Many selective colleges consider the backgrounds of applicants to improve equity in admissions. However, this information is usually not available for all applicants. We examine whether the chances of admission and enrollment changed after 43 colleges gained access to a new tool that standardizes information on educational disadvantage for all applicants. Applicants from the most challenging school and neighborhood backgrounds experienced a 5-percentage point increase in the probability of admission in the year of adoption relative to similar applicants in the previous year. The tool did not alter the probability of enrollment as a function of applicant challenge level in the full sample, but positive changes are concentrated among applicants to institutions that used the tool to allocate financial aid.
MAKALAH KOPERASI SYARIAH DAN UMKM

Published: March 2022

Di Indonesia, kita mengenal beberapa bentuk badan hukum perusahaan yaitu Perusahaan Perorangan , Persekutuan dengan Firma, Persekutuan Komanditer, Perseroan terbatas, Badan Usaha Milik Negara dan Koperasi. Dari bentuk-bentuk badan hukum perusahaan tersebut, perlu kita ketahui bahwa diantara badan-badan usaha satu sama lain terdapat perbedaan-perbedaan baik dalam hal cara penghimpunan modalnya, maupun dalam hal pertanggungjawaban modalnya terhadap kerugian, dalam hal siapa-siapa yang mempunyai wewenang menentukan kebijakan perusahaan dan sebagainya. Ketiganya memiliki pengertian yang berbeda – beda, walaupun begitu ketiganya bisa dapat bergerak di bidang yang sama, ketiganya memiliki kesamaan di salah satu sektor atau bagiannya. Antara koperasi, PT, atau BUMN secara kasar terdapat persamaan dalam tujuan yang sama-sama mencari untung. Namun jika ditilik lebih jauh lagi, terdapat banyak perbedaan mendasar antara koperasi dengan badan usaha tersebut.
Does Education Affect Rural Women’s Trust? Evidence From China
Authors: Mai Nhat Chi
Published: March 2022

Trust is of great significance to the economic and social development of a country. In the case of China, the trust of rural women has undergone tremendous changes along with the development of rural areas. It is seen that the trust of rural women has changed from localized to generalized trust, and it is stated that the major factor leading to this transformation is education. To explore the phenomenon empirically, the current study uses the survey data of rural women sourced from China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) over the year 2018. Through the ordered probit model, the study reveals that education plays a significant role in influencing rural women’s generalized trust and localized trust. Through mediation analysis, the study further reveals that reliance on Internet information, access to public resources, and income are the factors mediating the relationship between education and generalized trust. Besides, the outcomes further unveil that the impact of education on localized trust is stronger when the level of mobility is low. For robustness check, the current study additionally employs a regression discontinuity model. The overall findings elucidate that education is the major factor triggering the trust of rural women in China. The findings propose that policymakers in China should imply education-oriented strategies as individuals with higher levels of education are more inclined to trust others.
Variational Probabilistic Multi-Hypothesis Tracking
Authors: Xu Shuoyuan , Shin Hyo-Sang , Tsourdos Antonios
Published: March 2022

This paper proposes a novel multi-target tracking (MTT) algorithm for scenarios with arbitrary numbers of measurements per target. We propose the variational probabilistic multi-hypothesis tracking (VPMHT) algorithm based on the variational Bayesian expectation-maximisation (VBEM) algorithm to resolve the MTT problem in the classic PMHT algorithm. With the introduction of variational inference, the proposed VPMHT handles track-loss much better than the conventional probabilistic multi-hypothesis tracking (PMHT) while preserving a similar or even better tracking accuracy. Extensive numerical simulations are conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Mewujudkan kemaslahatan adalah kata kunci bagi manusia dalam merealisasikan kebaikan itu sendiri. Karena prinsip kemaslahatan adalah pangkal konsep tujuan syariah (maqashid syariah). Adapun pijakan kemaslahatan bersumber dari al-Qur’an dan al-Hadits yang kemudian dari keduanya manusia berijtihad untuk menentukan kemaslahatan yang diidealisasikan dalam hidup dan kehidupannya. Wacana konsep maqashid syariah awal-awalnya adalah sub topik tersendiri dalam disiplin ilmu Ushul Fiqh. Geliat Ekonomi Islam di Indonesia dalam lima belas tahun terakhir ini, mengalami perkembangan signifikan baik dalam tataran teori dan praktik. euforia terma ekonomi Islam, hanya dibarengi dengan bermunculnya lembaga-lembaga keuangan Syariah saja. Hal ini adalah sebuah ironi. Salah satu bentuk kerjasama ekonomi yang paling cocok untuk memberdayakan rakyat kecil adalah koperasi. Karena di dalam koperasi dapat ditemukan prinsip dan nilai-nilai kebersamaan, gotong royong dan kesejahteraan bersama. Bung Hatta memberikan perhatian khusus terhadap koperasi sebagai kerjasama ekonomi yang ideal.

Sharia cooperative is one of the non-governmental groups that aims as a people's economic institution to develop productive and investment businesses and improve living standards based on sharia principles. In the rapid development of Islamic cooperatives, Islamic cooperatives still have many obstacles in their development, both from internal and external sides. Meanwhile, MSME is a business or business whose actors are individuals, groups, or business entities. The classification in MSMEs is divided depending on the income or assets owned each year. Empowerment of micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and sharia cooperatives is a strategic step in improving and strengthening the basic economic life of the majority of the Indonesian people, particularly through providing employment opportunities and reducing inequality and poverty levels through sharia principles.

Koperasi pertama kali digagas oleh seseorang yang bernama Robert Owen yang dimana kemudia dikembangkan oleh seseorang di inggris yang membuat inggris pada saat itu mengalami perkembangan yang di dasari oleh system koperasi yang berlandasan prinsip keadilan. Keberhasilan inggris dalam menggunakan koperasi ini sangat terlihat dari segi penduduk dan pendidikan tinggi yang dimilikinya. Setelah keberhasilan inggris memajukan negaranya disusul oleh prancis dan jerman yang juga menggunakan koperasi ini untuk membagun dan mengubah kondisi rakyatnya. Setelah dunia bagian eropa berhasil koperasi juga mulai masuk dan berkembang di dalam Indonesia yang diperkenalkan oleh pertama kali Fatih R.Aria. beliau mengambil salah satu prinsip koperasi yang ada di jerman pada waktu itu. Akan tetapi koperasi yang di gagas oleh Fatih R.Aria itu membuat pemerintahan hindia-belanda melakukan beberapa tindakan kekerasan kepada masyarakat Indonesia yang mebuat tokoh koperasi Indonesia yaitu Dr. Sutomo melakukan pergerakan koperasi. Setelah pemerintahan hindia-belanda di gantikan oleh jepang justru Indonesia lebih mengalami kesultan dikarena pemerintahan jepang mendirkan koperasi kumiyai yang justru bertujuan untuk mengambil lebih banyak keuntungan dari masyarakat Indonesia. Sehingga setelah indoensia merdeka koperasi menjadi tanggung jawab setiap masyarkat yang membentuk koperasiyang di dasari pada kebutuhan dan tujuan yang berbeda.
Concept of Time, Godlike Personality, Unified Field Theory, Language, Learning Theory, Number Theory, Vibing Theory & An Ecstasy of Thoughts
Authors: Thoudam Jyotishraj
Published: March 2022

Employing a consistency argument in personality, one arrives at a Godlike personality resemblance in mortal men to the ones described in mythical stories & holy books. However, not stopping at this context this paper is probably a first attempt “to the best knowledge of the author” at mixing ideas, & perhaps making this paper more interdisciplinary. A discussion is also made on the basis of efficiency argument, that nothingness could be our most efficient language. In extension, the only force of nature perhaps ungauged yet by scientific tools or to the best of our knowledge the singularity we all are accustomed to, where all things come from, even the four forces of nature, or in adequate terms “The big bang” for now, is looked at from a new perspective i.e., from a efficiency argument. A mixing of ideas (we all want Chutni’s in the Indian sense of the word, in the food somewhere to make this paper less amuck, or this is perhaps the first “fields of inquiry” salad in the making, so enjoy as a deviation from the more conventional “dull/bland” paper on a particular field out there ;)) which contains, non-linearity from mathematics (viewed as a bifurcation not in as a powers of variables) , computations, innateness from biology or behavioral science or psychology to calligraphy to graphology is utilized in arriving at some proposition. An unconventional approach (perhaps originality isn’t that what we all are looking for, as Feynman’s book’s title “The beat of different drum…”) where at the first stroke of “Introduction” a proposal of removal of the concept of time is undertaken. We take “a no/minimum equation” approach like that of C.V. Raman’s Nature papers when he was at his prime.

Published: March 2022

BackgroundMental wellbeing in the UK seems to have deteriorated significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic, with the rates of loneliness, life satisfaction, and psychological distress taking longer to return to the pre-pandemic levels than elsewhere. Nevertheless, there is little knowledge about the interactions between these outcomes, or the factors that played a role. MethodsLongitudinal data from Understanding Society (N=3475) were used to explore the changes in loneliness, life satisfaction, and psychological distress from pre-pandemic levels (2017-19) through November 2020, the interactions between these outcomes, and the role of individual differences in the rates of change, using multivariate latent growth curve model.ResultsLoneliness, life satisfaction, and psychological distress deteriorated minimally between April and November 2020, compared to the pre-pandemic levels (2017-2019), while the rate of change in each outcome influenced the rate of change in the other two. Key individual (age, gender, physical health), social (number of friends) and environmental (neighbourhood quality) variables influenced baseline scores and the rates of change. ConclusionConsidering significant dynamic associations between loneliness, life satisfaction, and psychological distress, we argue that interventions to tackle any one of the outcomes may have beneficial effects on others, while highlighting individual and community-level interventions to tackle loneliness.

Published: March 2022

Background While a personalized approach is highly valued for Mindfulness-¬¬Based Interventions (MBIs), there exist no screening tools which could identify participant preferences. Objective : To study the feasibility of the Thai Sensory Profile Assessment Tool (TSPA) for classifying sensory preference by corelation with serum cortisol. Methods: A cross-over controlled trial study conducted on 20 volunteer nurses, who appear to be healthy, working in a university hospital, aged 20-55 years old, from December 2018 to March 2019. The participants were assigned randomly to either relaxation on-site or Mindfulness-Based Flow Practice (MBFP) in the residential retreat program. Each participant was self-evaluated using The Thai Sensory Profile Assessment Tool (TSPA). The effectiveness of MBFP was measured quantitatively by the change of serum cortisol and qualitatively from satisfaction interviews. Results: The carry-over effect was not significant, and the treatment effect size was 4.68 mg/dl 95% CI 1.5 – 7.3, p 0.05. It was noted that the Movement and Touch sensory preference group had a clearly different direction of cortisol change while the Visual and Auditory sensory preference showed no difference. Conclusions: Increasing cortisol in the context of positive feedback in our study may be interpreted as a mismatch in the level of sensory exposure to their threshold. The TSPA evaluation has potential to be a feasible tool for MBI sensory exposure adjustment to accurately match personal sensory processing styles
Developmental Changes in the Structure of Shyness and Internalizing Symptoms from Early to Middle Childhood: A Network Analysis
Authors: Bekkhus Mona , McVarnock Alicia , Coplan Robert , Ulset Vidar , Kraft Brage
Published: March 2022

Shyness is a temperamental trait that shares considerable conceptual overlap with aspects of internalizing problems, creating difficulties in operationalizing and assessing these two constructs and their association. This study addresses these issues by employing network analyses. Participants were, white, N=555 children (Mage = 52.45 months, SD = 15.96, 55% girls) who were followed longitudinally over 4 years. Parents rated child shyness and teachers assessed children’s internalizing symptoms. Results suggests that two behavioral shyness traits were the most central aspects of shyness. The centrality of these aspects was robust across age. The most influential symptom connecting internalizing symptoms with shyness was “unhappy”. Shyness became more differentiated with development, and associations between anxiety-related symptoms and shyness increased as children enteredformal schooling.
The Aesthetic Responsiveness Assessment (AReA) in Persian Language: A Scale Validation and Cultural Adaptation Study

Published: March 2022

People differ in their responsiveness to aesthetic experiences. It is important to understand the role of culture in such individual differences, yet existing tools for assessing aesthetic responsiveness largely focus on North American and European cultures. We created a Farsi translated and culturally adapted version of the Aesthetic Responsiveness Assessment (AReA) and evaluated its psychometric properties. Construct validity and internal consistency were evaluated in a sample of 1,586 participants. Moreover, convergent and discriminant validity were investigated using the Behavioral Avoidance/Inhibition Scales (BIS-BAS), Big Five Inventory-2, Barcelona Music Reward Questionnaire (BMRQ), and the Temporal Experience of Pleasure Scale (TEPS). Further, the test–retest reliability of AReA was examined for the first time in a subsample of participants (n = 160) who answered the questionnaire again after 6 months. In addition to an acceptable structural validity (comparative fit index, CFI = .905), the Farsi version of AReA showed good internal consistency. Cronbach’s α for the overall score was .848 and varied between .64 and .81 for subscales. Concerning convergent and discriminant validity, AReA subscales were positively correlated with subscales of TEPS, the Emotion Evocation subscale of BMRQ, Behavioral Avoidance, and Openness, and were unrelated to Behavioral Inhibition, Conscientiousness, and Negative Emotionality. Moreover, AReA subscales showed different patterns of correlations with other questionnaires. Finally, all subscales of AReA showed high test–retest reliability, ranging from .715 to .778. Our results confirm the validity of the Farsi version of AReA and provide a new measure of aesthetic responsiveness, useful in Farsi-speaking communities, which facilitates cross-cultural research in empirical aesthetics.
Spatial Thinking in Practice: A snapshot of teacher’s spatial activity use in the early years’ classroom.

Published: March 2022

Spatial thinking predicts Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics achievement, yet is often absent from educational policy. We provide the first benchmarks of teachers’ usage and perceptions of spatial activities in practice in the reception classroom. Using a questionnaire study with educational professionals working in the reception (4-5 years) classroom in England (N=104), we found that spatial and numeracy activities were perceived as significantly less important, and were completed significantly less often, than literacy or life skills. Given the lack of focus on spatial skills in the curriculum guidance in England, rates of spatial activity use were encouragingly high and were broadly comparable to those of numeracy. Teachers’ anxiety levels were moderate for both spatial and mathematics domains. The findings highlight a need to elevate teacher’s understanding of the importance of developing children’s early spatial and numeracy skills, which may begin with efforts to reduce spatial and mathematics anxiety.

A pós-graduação no Brasil é historicamente apontada como um espaço de conhecimento dominado por camadas sociais privilegiadas da população, majoritariamente branca, mesmo após a implementação de políticas de ações afirmativas à nível nacional. O debate sobre diversidade e inclusão na educação superior continua urgente para reduzir desigualdades sociais e históricas, além de estabelecer práticas institucionais antirracistas. Nesta nota apontamos como a crescente exigência de certificados de proficiência em língua inglesa durante o processo seletivo dos programas de pós-graduação no Brasil pode reforçar o racismo estrutural dentro da comunidade acadêmica. A partir desta crítica, propomos formas menos excludentes para avaliação do conhecimento em língua inglesa durante o processo seletivo dos programas de pós-graduação. Esperamos com isso sensibilizar coordenadores e colegiados dos programas de pós-graduação para a necessidade uma profunda reflexão sobre as consequências que a adoção de certificado de proficiência em língua inglesa tem para a diversidade de alunos na pós-graduação brasileira.
Chinese Immersion Teachers in the U.S: Perceptions and Needs on Their Teacher Preparation Programs
Authors: Chen Mengyao , Li Jiahang , Gorke Yongling Z
Published: March 2022

Language immersion has been an emerging educational method for K-12 students to acquire foreign languages. Despite its effectiveness, there are a limited amount of teacher education programs designed specifically for language immersion educators. Thus, many language immersion teachers have been applying knowledge learned from general teacher educational programs, which are not designed for language immersion settings, into their daily teaching. Simultaneously, the language immersion programs, especially Chinese immersion programs, have identified multiple educational challenges related to curriculum design and content teaching, classroom management, and cross-cultural communications. This study aims to address these challenges from the perceptions of selected Chinese immersion teachers towards their teacher preparation programs via qualitative in-depth case studies. Results show that the educational philosophy and psychology theories and practices, curriculum and instruction, cross-cultural competence, and practicum in existing preparation programs contribute positively towards immersion teaching in the U.S. However, Chinese immersion teachers demand more social-emotional learning and diversity, equity, and inclusion preparation. Potential solutions to these challenges require synergistic efforts from the current teacher preparation programs, Chinese immersion programs, and policymakers.

Profesi keguruan terdiri atas dua kata, yaitu kata profesi dan keguruan. Makna kata profesi dan keguruan. Secara harfiah, dalam kamus, kata profesi dimaknai sebagai pekerjaan. Namun, dalam kajian ini, bukan setiap pekerjaan dapat disebut profesi, sebagaimana yang sering terdengar di masyarakat. Misalnya, ada yang mengatakan si A berprofesi sebagai pemulung atau si B berprofesi sebagai pembantu rumah tangga. Dari kata profesi, dapat dibentuk kata profesional dan profesionalisme. Kamus Besar Bahasa Indonesia yang disingkat KBBI (Tim Penyusun Kamus Pusat Pembinaan dan Pengembangan Bahasa, 1997) memaknai profesi sebagai pekerjaan yang yang dilandasi pendidikan keahlian tertentu. Profesi guru merupakan profesi yang menuntut persyaratan khusus bagi calon tenaga pendidik atau guru di sekolah. Hal ini tercantum dalam Undang-undang yang menyatakan bahwa guru harus memiliki kualifikasi akademik S1 atau setara D.IV dan sertifikat pendidik. Disamping itu, guru juga dituntut harus memiliki kompetensi Pedagogik, Kepribadian, Sosial, dan Profesional. Undang-undang Nomor 14 Tahun 2005 tentang Guru dan Dosen disebutkan bahwa guru adalah pendidik profesional dengan tugas utama mendidik, mengajar, membimbing, mengarahkan, melatih, menilai, dan mengevaluasi peserta didik. Oleh karena itu, menjadi seorang guru bukan pekerjaan yang mudah. Selain guru memiliki tanggung jawab transfer of knowledge tetapi juga harus bisa melakukan transfer of value.

Authors: Sah Gunja Kumari
Published: March 2022

It is tough to forecast or assess an individual preference, but it is vital for marketers since it represents an essential step in understanding consumer choice. It is critical to determine brand preference based on the awareness of the customer. The primary objectives of this study are to assess how professional consumers prefer brands in the choice of mobile phones. Business people, private jobholders, government personnel, and farmers are considered professionals for this study. Other goals are to explore the relationship between brand popularity, price, product attributes, social influence, marketing communication, and brand preference and examine the impact of independent variables on brand preference. Data were obtained from the 150 samples of professionals in Kathmandu valley through convenience sampling techniques. A total of 200 questionnaires were circulated, with 179 being collected. From the collected questionnaires, 29 were invalid, while 150 were valid and entered into SPSS 20. The data were analyzed through reliability, validity, descriptive statistics, correlation, and regression analysis. This study proved product attributes and price influenced the Smartphone purchase decision. So, the Samsung Smartphone is the first choice among professionals. It also confirmed the insignificant relationship between social influence and brand preference. Thus, the social context does not aid in purchasing a smart phone. The findings will support smart phone manufacturers in developing strategies based on consumer brand preferences.
Factors Influencing Employee Motivation: A Case Study of Padma Kanya Multiple Campus in Kathmandu
Authors: Shrestha Rohit Kumar
Published: March 2022

Motivation is the set of forces that make employees willing to behave in an organization. It is a crucial function of management or human resource management. The study’s objectives are to determine employees’ motivating factors as well as to identify employees’ general attitudes towards existing motivational factors. The qualitative research method was used. Primary data were collected adopting focus group discussion, observation, and interviews. Administrative and unranked employees of Padma Kanya Multiple Campus (PKMC) were selected for study by applying the case study method. Thematic analysis of data was applied. The most important motivating factor for both temporary administrative and unranked employees (helpers in office) was job security followed by pay and overtime remuneration. Administrative employees, to great extent, need intrinsic rewards particularly recognition, responsibility, promotion, and fairness whereas unranked permanent employees also, to some extent, were influenced by intrinsic factors such as recognition, equality, fairness. A different motivating factor may apply to different levels of employees in terms of their needs and desires. The general attitude of the research participants regarding motivation seems to be poor. So, both extrinsic and extrinsic factors should be improved.

The Effect of Atenolol on CK-MB Levels in Hypertensive Patients
Authors: A. Amin Inaam
Published: March 2022

Atenolol is one of beta-adrenergic receptor blocking agent. It is widely used for the treatment of hypertension as a selective antihypertensive drug. But long term usage of atenolol may cause one of the cardiovascular diseases like myocardial infarction. To prove the relationship between atenolol and cardiovascular disease, measurement of creatinekinase-MB as a diagnostic indicator in early and long term usage of this drug by hypertensive patients is recommended.  A comparative study was conducted in Al-Yarmouk Teaching Hospitalâ€“Emergency Department- on 30 hypertensive patients using atenolol. They were divided into (2) groups A and B according to the duration of the drug usage. Group A- (15) patients with a mean age (56+6) years. They used atenolol for a period of (1-5) years. Group B- also (15) patients with mean age (60+6) years. They used atenolol for (6-20) years. Both groups were with nearly the same number of males and females. All subjects of the study groups were screened to exclude evidence of hyper or hypothyroidism, diabetes and chronic renal failure. Venous blood samples were taken in first 8 hours after onset symptoms of cardiac attack from each patients and the levels of creatine kinase-MB were estimated and compared between the (2) groups. There is a significant correlation between levels of serum creatine kinase-MB of group A and group B (P<0.05). Atenolol causes increased level of serum CK-MB and this increase was directly proportional to the duration of the drug usage. CK-MB is one of cardiac markers that released from heart muscle when it is damaged as a result of myocardial infraction. So, atenolol has a significant correlation with development of myocardial diseases.

Authors: Q. Abdulkadir Maadh
Published: March 2022

In this research, we exclude starch indicator preparation,that is  used in official phenol assay method. The liberated iodine, in presence of chloroform, was acting as indicator and titrated with sodium thiosulfate until getting a sharp colorless end point. Similarly, starch was cancelled during both blank and standardization of bromine water solution experiments needed in phenol assay. The results obtained were the same volumes and weights as that achieved using starch with just about 0.03% difference in sample procedure. Finally, this work will enable us to save time, effort, fuel and materials spended in laboratory.

Key word:- Phenol, assay, starch indicator
