Is Willingness to Communicate a Reliable Predictor of Learner Autonomy in an EFL Context?
Authors: Mohammadi Mohammad , Mahdivand Ziba
Published: March 2019

The present quantitative study investigated the relationship between willingness to communicate (WTC) and learner autonomy in an EFL context. In addition, it explored the probable effect of gender on the relationship between learner autonomy and WTC. Furthermore, it investigated whether WTC could predict learner autonomy. The data were collected from 142 upper-intermediate and advanced EFL learners (72 males and 70 females) by means of two questionnaires, the  Learner Autonomy Questionnaire and the WTC Scale. The findings indicated that WTC correlated significantly and positively with learner autonomy. Moreover, correlational analysis revealed that gender modified this relationship in that the relationship between WTC and learner autonomy was stronger and more positive among female learners. The results revealed that WTC was a partial predictor of learner autonomy in this EFL context.
Pollination ecology of the invasive tree tobacco Nicotiana glauca: comparisons across native and non-native ranges

Published: March 2019

Interactions with pollinators are thought to play a significant role in determining whether plant species become invasive, and ecologically generalised species are predicted to be more likely to invade than more specialised species. Using published and unpublished data we assessed the floral biology and pollination ecology of the South American native Nicotiana glauca (Solanaceae) which has become a significant invasive of semi-arid parts of the world. In regions where specialised bird pollinators are available, for example hummingbirds in California and sunbirds in South Africa and Israel, N. glauca interacts with these local pollinators and sets seed by both out-crossing and selfing. In areas where there are no such birds, such as the Canary Islands and Greece, abundant viable seed is set by selfing, facilitated by the shorter stigma-anther distance compared to plants in native populations. Surprisingly, in these areas without pollinating birds, the considerable nectar resources are only rarely exploited by other flower visitors such as bees or butterflies, either legitimately or by nectar robbing. We conclude that Nicotiana glauca is a successful invasive species outside of its native range, despite its functionally specialised hummingbird pollination system, because it has evolved to become more frequently self pollinating in areas where it is introduced. Its invasion success is not predictable from what is known of its interactions with pollinators in its home range.
AVALIAÇÃO DE DIFERENTES TÉCNICAS ESPACIAIS PARA ANÁLISE DA OCORRÊNCIA DE DENGUE EM RIO CLARO-SP
Authors: DOMINGUES Jacqueline , GOVONE José Sílvio
Published: March 2019

In this paper we have developed a study of dengue fever in Rio Claro, São Paulo - Brazil. The Municipal Health Foundation of Rio Claro provided data about reported cases of dengue fever in 2011. The main objective was to analyze both the spatial distribution of the disease in the city, by Census tracts, and the relationship of the disease with socioeconomic factors. Two types of spatial models were applied to the data: the SAR model ``- Simultaneous Autoregressive Models and SEM - Simultaneous Error Models. We also fitted the classic linear model, just for comparison to the two spatial models. The results showed that dengue is related to socioeconomic factors and, through the models it was possible to identify which one was statistically significant. Thematic maps have identified the areas that have the highest concentration of the disease.
GENERALIZED ADDITIVE MIXED MODELS WITH P-SPLINES APPLIED TO SUGARCANE PRODUCTION IN THE STATE OF SÃO PAULO
Authors: MENDOZA Natalie Verónika Rondinel , PIEDADE Sônia Maria De Stefano
Published: March 2019

In this paper, we apply the generalized additive mixed models with the use of the P-\textit{splines} technique as mixed models, which will be adopted in a problem of the agro-environmental area, in this case on the average levels of sugarcane production, which is influenced by changes in climatic variables such as temperature and precipitation which were measured over 10 years in each mesoregion of the state of São Paulo. The reason for using this approach as a smoothing method is that the tendency of these climate covariates is not known on its most, but it is known that they directly influence the response variable. Besides allowing for the inclusion of fixed and random effects in the models to be proposed, these models allow for the inclusion of an autoregressive process AR(1) as a correlation structure in the residuals.
A Era do propranolol nos hemangiomas infantis
Authors: Ramos Leonor
Published: March 2019

Os hemangiomas infantis (HI) são os tumores vasculares benignos da infância mais frequentes, com uma incidência aproximada de 4-5%, sendo mais prevalentes no sexo feminino, recém-nascidos prematuros ou de baixo peso e gravidezes gemelares.A maioria apresenta-se como lesões pequenas e inócuas que, pela sua natureza autolimitada, para além de observação periódica, não necessita de tratamento activo.No entanto, cerca de 10-15% dos HI, seja devido ao seu tamanho ou à sua localização (por exemplo HI perioculares, subglóticos, periorais, perineais...) podem trazer consequências funcionais e estéticas importantes, pelo que necessitam de tratamento activo. Estes casos carecem de observação célere pela Dermatologia e uma intervenção precoce, para que não se perca a janela de oportunidade de início de tratamento e, assim, tentar minimizar efeitos adversos a curto e longo prazo, melhorando os cuidados a estas crianças e reduzindo a morbilidade.Desde 2008, após Léauté-Labrèze ter descoberto acidentalmente a boa resposta do HI ao propranolol, que o paradigma do tratamento dos HI se alterou, passando este a ser recomendado como escolha de primeira linha em 2014.O propranolol oral é um fármaco muito eficaz, com taxas de resposta até 98%, com um perfil de segurança superior aos fármacos tradicionalmente usados no tratamento dos HI (corticoesteróides sistémicos, vincristina, interferão). Deve ser iniciado, idealmente, entre as 5 semanas e os 5 meses de vida (reiterando a importância da referenciação precoce dos HI complicados), na dose de 1 mg/kg/dia, devendo ser aumentado até à dose máxima de 3 mg/kg/dia (dose bidiária), por um período de 6 meses. É um fármaco relativamente bem tolerado, sendo raros e rapidamente reversíveis com a suspensão da terapêutica os efeitos adversos graves (hipoglicémia, bradicardia, broncospasmo).O tempo de duração do tratamento e o modo de suspensão (imediata vs desmame) não são consensuais, havendo casos em que há necessidade de prolongar o tempo da sua administração além dos 6 meses, preconizada na maioria dos casos. Estes pontos devem ainda ser definidos de forma clara para ajudar os clínicos na abordagem dos HI complicados.A utilização do propranolol oral veio revolucionar, sem dúvida, o tratamento dos HI. Lesões complexas, com sequelas funcionais e estéticas potencialmente graves, são tratadas de forma rápida, cómoda, segura e em ambulatório, diminuindo de maneira notável e impressionante a morbilidade associada a estes tumores vasculares.Resta, no entanto, saber se os novos betabloqueantes em estudo, mais selectivos, podem manter ou mesmo ultrapassar a eficácia do propranolol e reduzir os efeitos adversos conhecidos.Este número da Revista da SPDVinclui dois estudos de revisão (1,2) muito clarificadores sobre o estado da arte actual no tratamento dos HI, bem como das eventuais novas terapêuticas que poderão surgir nos próximos anos e, assim, nos auxiliar na abordagem desta entidade tão frequente na Dermatologia Pediátrica.
Partitioning a split graph into induced subgraphs isomorphic to the path of order 3.
Authors: Duginov O. I.
Published: March 2019

The study of the computational complexity of problems on graphs is an urgent problem. We show that the problem of deciding whether the vertex set of a given split graph of order 3n can be partitioned into induced subgraphs isomorphic to P3 is a polynomially solvable problem. We develop a polynomial-time algorithm based on the method of augmenting graphs. The developed efficient algorithm can be used for solving team formation problems.
Full 16-parametric model of calibration processes and direct measurement of parameters of four-poles
Authors: Gusinski A. V. , Bogush V. A.
Published: March 2019

A complete mathematical model for measuring the parameters of the scattering matrix for a measurement object [Sx] in the form of a four-port network is developed, in which the mathematical model of the eight-port error is described by 16 parameters of the scattering matrix [E]. In addition, in comparison with the 12-parameter model of the eight-port error network, four parameters are included, which allow taking into account leaks, parasitic transmissions of microwave modules under study (microwave microassemblies). Due to the use of matrix analysis methods, the equations in matrix form are obtained that connect the matrices of the measurement object [Sи] and the actual values of the matrix parameters [Sx], with the aim of enabling the solution of these equations instead of the scattering matrix [E] to use a transmition matrix [T] in the form of cellular matrices [Taa], [Tab], [Tba], [Tbb].

Authors: Salinas-Flores Astrid , Guevara-Aguilar Alexandro , Natividad-Torres Ever Adrián , Baeza-Jiménez Ramiro , Buenrostro-Figueroa José Juan
Published: March 2019

En el presente estudio se evaluaron dos métodos de extracción (maceración y ultrasonido) para la obtención de compuestos fenólicos presentes en cáscara de granada. Las variables que se evaluaron son: temperatura (30, 60 y 90oC), relación masa/volumen (m/v; 1:10, 1:25 y 1:50) y disolvente (agua, etanol:agua, 50:50 y etanol). La actividad antioxidante de dichos extractos se evaluó por los métodos ABTS, DPPH y lipoperoxidación. Los resultados obtenidos muestran que las mejores condiciones de extracción son: relación m/v de 1:50 (0.02 g/mL), agua como disolvente de extracción y una temperatura de 60°C para evitar degradación de los compuestos y pérdida de la capacidad de inhibir la lipoperoxidación. Bajo estas condiciones, se obtuvieron incrementos para fenoles totales, AA-DPPH y AA-ABTS de 10.41, 7.41 y 8.30 veces más altos con respecto al control, respectivamente. Los valores obtenidos para fenoles totales, AA-DPPH y AAABTS mediante maceración son ≈1.36 veces mayores a los obtenidos bajo extracción asistida por ultrasonido.

WORLD EXPERIENCE IN FINANCING INNOVATIVE SMALL BUSINESSES
Authors: Shuba Borys , Sotskyi Artur
Published: March 2019

The aim of the article is to study and generalize world experience in financing innovative small businesses to determine the areas of improvement of financing domestic small and medium innovative enterprises within the framework of state innovative policy. The subject of the study is the world experience in financing innovative small businesses. Methodology. The study is based on the comparative analysis of the systems of financing innovative small businesses in Ukraine and foreign countries. The analysis of specificities of financing innovative small businesses in Germany, the United States, the United Kingdom, China, Japan, Spain, Belgium, and in some other countries enables to determine the advantages and disadvantages of different systems of financing innovations in small businesses. Comparative legal study of certain provisions of Ukrainian legislation enables to determine the potentials and application limits of positive foreign experience in the specified sphere. The results of the study revealed that the world economy has accumulated significant experience in the formation and development of a financial support system for innovation, which includes various levers to intensify intellectual creativity. The maximum effect from their use would be ensured by the systematic consideration of all financial instruments, integration with elements of other subsystems of the national innovation system. Practical implications. The experience of developed economies and the analysis of the current state of financing innovation activity in Ukraine suggest that to create a developed layer of industrial and innovative small businesses, which will become the main consumer and producer of innovations, Ukraine should apply the entire complex of organizational, regulatory, financial, and other measures. While the whole complex of issues related to the development of innovation in Ukraine is of great importance, the problem of forming an active demand for innovation should be put into the first place. Relevance/originality. The analysis of the global experience of financing innovative small businesses is the basis for developing the most promising areas for the improvement of domestic legislation in this sphere.

Authors: Memon Junaid Alam
Published: March 2019

Fareeha Zafar’s book Canals, Colonies and Class: British
Policy in the Punjab 1880-1940 is essentially an edited reproduction of
her PhD thesis, The Impact of Canal Construction on the Rural Structures
of the Punjab: The Canal Colony Districts, 1880 To 1940. The thesis was
completed about 35 years ago at the School of Oriental and African
Studies, the University of London (now SOAS, the University of London).
She studies the British colonisation process in the Punjab and its
effect on the local environment, the production patterns, and social
relations, understanding that despite several similar studies on the
region, no serious effort had been made to synthesise these issues the
way she does in this book. However, in the form of a new book, the
synthesis does not add much value as it reiterates the British
colonisers’ well-known strategies, namely irrigation development as a
tool to settle disarmed forces and nomads and, thereby, strengthening a
class of local landed elite to maintain their power in the colonies,
their revenue-seeking policies, indebtedness of the landed class and
alike. Nevertheless, considering the timing of the original
contribution, the book, if read together with the contributions such as
Khuhro (1978/1999) and Cheesman (1997), provides a relatively rich
description of geographers’ analyses of the British policies, their
intentions, and their effects.
Oil Price Shocks, Systematic Monetary Policy and Economic
Activity
Authors: Zeshan Muhammad , Malik Wasim Shahid , Nasir Muhammad
Published: March 2019

This study quantifies the impact of oil price shocks and the
subsequent monetary policy response on output for Pakistan. It employs a
quarterly Structural Vector Auto-regression framework for the period
1993–2015. It first discovers that Hamilton’s (1996) Net Oil Price
Increase indicator appropriately reveals most of the oil price shocks
hitting Pakistan’s economy. We find that a contractionary monetary
policy, resulting from the oil price shocks, contributes to significant
output loss in Pakistan. After encountering the Lucas critique, the
present study finds that around 42 percent of the output loss is due to
the ensuing tight monetary policy. This suggests that the central bank
of Pakistan can reduce the impact of oil price shocks by reducing its
intervention in the market. JEL Classification: E1, E3, E5 Keywords: Oil

Authors: Sfafi'i Muhammad Lukman
Published: March 2019

Reading as one of language skills plays significant roles in the teaching English as a foreign language. Since the teacher still uses the conventional way to teach reading, students‘ ability in reading comprehension seems still unsatisfactory yet. So, teacher should explore and develop new strategies. One of strategies in reading comprehension that can trigger our students to attain that purpose is SMART (Self Monitoring Approach for Reading and Thinking) strategy. This study is developing SMART strategy to boost the reading comprehension achievement of the ninth grade students. The research applies a collaborative classroom action research design in which the researcher and the collaborative teacher work together in preparing a suitable procedure of SMART strategy, designing the lesson plan, determining the criteria of success, implementing the action, observing, and doing reflection. The finding indicated that SMART strategy was successful to enhance students‘ motivation to be actively involved in the instructional process. The improvement on the students‘ participation was 75% in Cycle 1 and 87% in Cycle 2.Keywords: Reading Comprehension, SMART strategy

South East Asian architecture identity in urban centres has been generally focused on either timber vernacular identity or large masonry building. The local agenda is increasingly crucial amidst the importance of tourism and city-branding which necessitate the enculturation of urbanism within an overall resistance to extensive globalisation. Traditional public typologies such as palaces and mosques in Asia hold the promise of resources that can add place-branding and identity to towns and cities, while at the same time a high resource for new forms and patterns. Through an extensive morphological and evolutionary mapping of such typologies, the aim is to develop a classification that can define stylistic categories and aesthetic predispositions, such that these classifications can be used to manage, market and enhance such historical narrative of towns and contribute to identity-making in the urban-scape. Throughout the Asian region, particularly in nations previously under Colonisation, there is a common resource of public typologies which have not been identified in terms of early stylistic changes and nuances that would contribute towards heightening of Asiaâ€™s common heritage and increasing awareness of such hybrid forms. These, if classified and defined, can consolidate towards the continuing agendas of identity-making in cities; including the management of preservation and conservation actions and policies. Many of these structures have been neglected as they are either seen as vernacular or part of a Colonial narrative and imprint.  Many of these individual heritage preservation efforts has been the initiative of their local sites and communities. The present privileging of national agendas and interest over regional collective action is not in the interest of awareness and action. In the past, national barriers have actually amplified the problem and reduced the potential of asserting the global and regional significance of such structures.
