IDENTIFIKASI AIR TANAH DENGAN METODE GEOLISTRIK RESISTIVITAS KONFIGURASI SCHLUMBERGER DI CANDI DASA PROVINSI BALI
Authors: Sutasoma Muwardi , Azhari Anjar Pranggawan , Arisalwadi Meidi
Published: February 2019

Pengukuran resistivitas secara sounding telah dilakukan di daerah Candi Dasa (CD), Provinsi Bali. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengidentifikasi sumber air tanah baru. Untuk menentukan posisi aquifer air tanah bawah permukaan maka dilakukan pengambilan data sounding di dua titik yaitu CD 1 dan CD 2. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode geolistrik resistivitas Konfigurasi Schlumberger dengan panjang lintasan CD 1 dan CD 2   adalah 150 m dengan spasi 1 m.  Pemrosesan data dengan menggunakan software IP2Win dan Progress 3 untuk memungkinkan penggambaran distribusi resistivitas batuan dalam 1 D. Hasil interpretasi menunjukkan bahwa struktur batuan bawah permukaan terdiri dari batuan soil, tuff, lava dan sandy tufa. Hasil interpretasi menunjukkan bahwa lapisan batuan yang terdapat terbentuk karena aktifitas vulkanik yang berasal dari aktifitas Gunung Agung yang berada di Kabupaten Karang Asem. Batuan seperti lava dan tuff adalah batuan yang memiliki porositas yang kecil karena memiliki ukuran butiran yang halus dan kecil, memiliki permeabilitas yang rendah sehingga menyebabkan susah untuk menyimpan dan dan mengalirkan air. Lapisan batuan ini diperkirakan berfungsi sebagai lapisan impermeable dan selanjutnya berfungsi untuk menahan air yang mengalir secara horizontal. Selanjutnya, lapisan batuan sandy tufan yang memiliki porositas dan permeabilitas yang besar karena memiliki butiran batuan yang besar bertugas untuk menyimpan dan mengalirkan air.

Can Managers Use Accruals Quality for Creating Investment Opportunity Set and Increasing Firm Value?
Authors: Nugroho Bayu Adi , Jasman Jasman
Published: February 2019

There were two main objectives of this research. Firstly, the researchers analyzed the impact of accruals quality and debt on firm value. Secondly, the researchers studied whether managers of a highly leveraged firm could use discretionary accruals for Investment Opportunity Set (IOS). The sample consisted of Indonesian manufacturing firms listed from 2013 to 2016. The researchers utilized Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) method and purposive sampling. The researchers find that accruals quality positively affects firm value. The results also suggestthat there are differences in accruals quality between highly leveraged and unleveraged firms. Furthermore, the results indicate that the more intensive the exploitation of accruals quality is, the greater the positive impact of such activity on firm value will be. Additionally, high-accrual leveraged firms borrow more debt than low-accrual unleveraged firms. Then, unleveraged firms have better accruals quality and cash flow, and highly leveraged firms have more significant accounts receivable and slightly better value of IOS. The findings suggest that managers of highly leveraged firms can use discretionary accruals to increase the value of IOS.

Nonlinear Split-Plot Design Model in Parameters Estimation using Estimated Generalized Least Square - Maximum Likelihood Estimation
Authors: David Ikwuoche John , Asiribo Osebekwin Ebenenzer , Dikko Hussain Garba
Published: February 2019

This research aimed to provide a theoretical framework for intrinsically nonlinear models with two additive error terms. To achieve this, an iterative Gauss-Newton via Taylor Series expansion procedures for Estimated Generalized Least Square (EGLS) technique was adopted. This technique was applied in estimating the parameters of an intrinsically nonlinear split-plot design model where the variance components were unknown. The unknown variance components were estimated via Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) method. To achieve the numerical stability in the iterative process of estimating the parameters, Householder QR decomposition was used. The results show that EGLS method presented in this research is available and applicable to estimate linear fixed, random, and mixed-effect models. However, in practical situations, the functional form of the mean in the model is often nonlinear due to the dynamics involved in the system process.

Authors: Jakindo Ester , Mayuni Ilza , Rasyid Yumna
Published: February 2019

The objective of this research was to analyze how English address terms in “The Princess Diaries” were translated into Indonesian in “Buku Harian Sang Putri”, which published eight times that might indicate its popularity among Indonesian enthusiasts. This research applied content analysis method, particularly the theory of address terms postulated by Braun and Kridalaksana also the theory of translation strategies proposed by Baker, Newmark, and Vinay and Darbelnet. The data were both target and source address terms in dialogs. The address terms were grouped into subsets of the unit for analysis. The result shows English address terms are translated into 11 Indonesian address terms and ’konstruksi kepemilikan’ by using ten translation strategies. The research also shows that loan-address terms (full-loan and scattered-address terms) are chosen as a strategy to enhance the novel’s source atmosphere though they distort the target culture to some extent. To conclude, address terms aren’t always translated into address terms and pragmatic meaning’s distortion happens though various translation strategies are applied. It is necessary to conduct research on how to minimize loan address terms to maintain the source novel’s atmosphere without distorting the pragmatic meaning of Indonesian culture.
Foreignization and Domestication of Indonesian Cultural Terms in the Novel Gadis Pantai Translated into English
Authors: Putrawan Gede Eka
Published: February 2019

The research was aimed at investigating categories of Indonesian cultural terms translated into English, explaining techniques of applied translation, and analyzing foreignization and domestication ideologies applied in the translations of Indonesian cultural terms into English in the novel Gadis Pantai that translated into The Girl from the Coast. This research was conducted through descriptive-qualitative approach. The data were collected through document analysis including content analysis and thematic analysis. The results show that there are five categories of cultural terms identified in the novel which are translated by using 16 techniques of translation, including the applications of single and double techniques of translation. In addition to foreignization and domestication ideologies of translation, it is also revealed that there is also partial foreignization and partial domestication ideologies of translation since some of the Indonesian identified cultural terms are translated through combinations of two different techniques of translation; combinations of source-language- and target-language-oriented techniques of translation. The most frequently-applied ideology of translation is domestication (82,20%), followed by foreignization (9,82%), as well as partial foreignization and partial domestication (7,98%).

Authors: Nuraisiah Siti , Nababan Mangatur Rudolf , Santosa Riyadi
Published: February 2019

The research dealt with attitudes toward sexism. It aimed to know the translation technique and quality in terms of accuracy and acceptability. It deployed a descriptive qualitative method. The data were obtained from a novel titled Gone Girl and the copy of the novel in Indonesian translation through content analysis and focus group discussion. The data were analyzed through domain, taxonomy, and componential analysis to reveal cultural value. The research indicates that translation techniques determine its qualities. It reveals that established equivalence results in the good quality of translation while the generalization, discursive creation, explicitation, modulation, literal translation, particularization, and description reflect quite good and bad quality of the translation. Moreover, the application of generalization and explicitation results in non-sexist translation. Consequently, the translator becomes less sexist than writer and gives readers different effect with the original one. However, this is affected by some factors; the translator’s subjectivity, translator’s competence, linguistic characteristic differences, and social-cultural differences.

Oases tussen buitenwijken zonder stad: Compromis Deltametropool levert een identiteitsloos landschap op
Authors: Metaal Stefan
Published: February 2019

Ruimtelijke identiteit was vroeger niet zo ingewikkeld: je had stedelingen en dorpelingen, en die woonden in steden en dorpen. Dit oude patroon van stad en land lijkt te zijn doorbroken. In plaats van afzonderlijke steden als voornaamste ruimtelijke eenheden, ontstaat een ingewikkeld netwerk van verschillende binnensteden, nieuwbouwwijken, dorpskernen, winkelcentra, oude suburbs en kantoorlocaties, waarbij geen van die plaatsen vanzelfsprekend het centrum vormt. Een dergelijk complex landschap is niet meer een stad of een verzameling van steden, maar een stedelijk veld.

Competitive Benchmarking with FM Customer and Occupant Satisfaction Surveys
Authors: Dodd Justin , Smithwick Jake , Bown Mike
Published: February 2019

Customer satisfaction is arguably one of the most important key performance indicators (KPIs) in the business world. Facilities management (FM) researchers and practitioners have begun to examine this KPI and adapt it for use in facility services. Most of the adaptations have regarded internal benchmarks and use in quality management. Though research demonstrates the effectiveness of competitive benchmarking and, more specifically, the effectiveness of customer satisfaction as a competitive benchmark, there is little research on how to use customer satisfaction as a competitive benchmark in FM. Researchers have focused on determining the appropriate content for customer service surveys but have not documented how and to what extent the surveys are currently being used. To help fill this gap in the research, an industry-wide study on operations and maintenance (O&M) was conducted for an FM organization in 2017. Approximately 700 respondents in the United States completed the survey, and the responses were analyzed to examine the use of customer/occupant satisfaction surveys in the nation's FM industry. The results indicate that two-thirds of the industry uses these surveys at varying frequencies; the frequency differs somewhat according to the size of the facility in Rentable Square Feet (RSF), as there is a positive linear correlation between RSF and survey frequency. Future research on the use of these surveys as a competitive benchmarking tool needs to focus on standardizing these surveys to enable more equitable comparisons and engaging in in-depth interviews to evaluate the process by which FM departments manage their occupant satisfaction for continual improvement.
Towards a Global Partnership Network: Implications, Evolution and Prospects of China's Partnership Diplomacy
Authors: YUE SHENGSONG
Published: February 2019

In the past 25 years, partnership diplomacy has gradually become an indispensable component in China's grand diplomacy strategy. Between 1993 and the end of 2017, China established more than 100 partnerships with the outside world. To better understand the evolution of China's strategy for diplomacy we need to know how these partnerships are formed and what motivates China to foster its partnership network. Although the importance of this strategy has been identified, the current literature does not yet include significant study of China's partnership network. This article attempts to fill this gap by assessing existing literature on partnership and government documents, interpreting the diversified labels and grades of partnerships, and analysing the network's evolution. It also attempts to estimate possible challenges facing China in the future expansion of its global partnership network. It argues that, although China intends to further extend its global influence and explore potential benefits through its partnerships, because of the challenges ahead its partnership network is still an aspiration rather than a realistic blueprint.
Institutions as Constraints and Enablers: Changes in Human Resource Management Practices of Foreign Companies during Economic Reform in China
Authors: LU WEI
Published: February 2019

This article demonstrates how the development of labour market institutions alongside economic reform has impacted the human resource management (HRM) practices of foreign companies in China. A historical approach is applied to examine the transformation of China from a centrally planned labour administration system to a market-based labour institution. The HRM practices of foreign companies are seen being embedded in China's macro-institutional environment, which constrains and/or enables foreign companies to exercise people management. Drawing on previous research, the study shows that HRM practices in the early reform period were primarily constrained both by formal and by informal institutions. The evidence from Finnish companies operating in China shows that HRM practices in the late reform period are largely enabled by formal institutions; however, foreign companies face the need for adaptation to the demands of informal institutions. Furthermore, the scarcity of human resources and rapid yet heterogeneous socio-economic development pose additional challenges for people management in China today.

Published: February 2019

This article examines the role of visualisations in astrophysics programming work, showing that visualisations are not only outputs for those producing them, but can help those developing them understand how to do their work. Studies of visualization in programming have mainly been of social and cultural factors influencing scientific research. We concentrate on the material aspects of scientific work, as of interest in their own right and on methodological grounds (since capturing the material practices of computer screen-work is an underexplored area). Using a ‘video-aided ethnographic’ method we analyse an episode of computational astrophysics involving the use of the Python programming language. We identify a selection of activities comprising the screen work of an astrophysics researcher to unpack how those activities contribute to the production of scientific knowledge.

An experiment to locate QTL conferring resistance against Peronosclerospora philippinensis causing Philippine downy mildew was observed in a BC1F2 population developed from a cross between the susceptible inbred line Pi 23 and the resistant inbred line P 345. Phenotypic data were collected in Los Baños, UPLB for disease incidence. A total of four regions were associated with disease incidence. Some of QTL associated with disease incidence have been reported previously, and the remaining QTL are described here for the first time. The results on QTL analysis using molecular markers also agree with the previous study using classical generation mean analysis of the cross combination Pi 23 x P 345.
Genetic Relationships Between Grain Types and Agronomic Traits In Rice
Authors: Moeljopawiro Sugiono
Published: February 2019

The genetic relationships between grain types and agronomic traits in rice (Oryza sativa L.) were studied in 6 x 6 diallel cross (excluding reciprocals) involving long-, medium-, and short-grain cultivars were studied. Combining ability analyses revealed that mean squares due to GCA were larger than those due to SCA, except for heading date. Vsca for heading date, plant height, panicle number, and grains per panicle were larger than Vgca for those traits. Panicle length, grain length, grain width, and 100-grain weight had larger Vgca than Vsca. General combining ability effects obtained in this study suggested that ‘Brazos’ was a good combiner for earliness. ‘Starbonnet’ was a good combiner for plant height, grains per panicle, and ‘Starbonnet’ and ‘Lebonnet’ were good combiners for grain length. ‘Nortai’ combined well for high panicle number and ‘Nortai’ and ‘S201’ combined well for grain width. ‘M401’ and ‘S201’ were good combiners for 100-grain weight. Phenotypic and genetic correlations followed a similar trend, except the latter was of a higher magnitude. Grain width and 100-grain weight were positively correlated with each other, but negatively correlated with the other traits. Grain length and grain width were negatively correlated. In general, heritability estimates in the broad sense were high. Moderate narrow sense heritability estimates for plant height, panicle length, grain length, grain width, and 100-grain weight suggested that these traits can be selected with the pedigree method, and the bulk method would be better for selecting heading date and grains per panicle.

Published: February 2019

The genetics of resistance to Philippine downy mildew in maize (Zea mays L.) caused by Peronosclerospora philippinensis was studied in progeny derived from crosses between the resistant inbred P 345 and susceptible inbred Pi 17 and Pi 23. Plant generations used in this study were the PS (susceptible lines Pi 17 and Pi 23); PR (P 345); extensively F1, F2; F3; BS and BR. Plants at three leaf stages were artificially inoculated and evaluated for components of resistance, namely: disease incidence, disease severity, onset of systemic symptom, area under disease progress curve, and rate of downy mildew development. Analysis of generation means indicate that additive- dominance with epistasis gene effect play important role in all components of resistance to Philippines downy mildew.

Swainsona formosa, a legume native to Australia, is a spectacular flowering plant that is used as a hanging basket, container or cut flower plant. Its breeding programme had been emphasized on the production of better flower quality through ploidy modification to produce tetraploid plants. Colchicine, an antimitotic chemical, had been sucessfully used to induce tetraploidyzation in S. formosa. Up to 50% of plants with double chromosome number (2n = 4x = 32) were produced by seedling application of colchicine at 0.01%–0.1%. Concentrations below 0.01% or above 0.1% were found not effective in inducing chromosome doubling. Tetraploid S. formosa were charaterized by larger leaflets, bigger size but lower density of stomata, larger flowers with longer peduncles and larger pollen grains with lower viability. In general, colchicine can be used effectively to induce polyploidyzation in S. formosa and this method should find application in breeding programme.

The information on germplasm diversity and genetic relatedness among elite breeding materials is an important element in maize breeding. Molecular characterization and genetic relationship of 11 QPM-DMR lines were analysed using thirty three SSRs markers. Genetic relationship was determined using Jaccard’s similarity coefficient, and dendogram was then constructed based on the unweighted pair-group method with arithmetical averages (UPGMA). Result showed that (i) all SSRs loci were informative for describing the genotypic variation as showed by their PIC, which ranged from 0.19 for umc1304 to 0.93 for phi112; (ii) the eleven maize inbred lines were clustered into one major group A and small groups B and C that corresponds well with the breeding programs adopted at different institutes of release, and (iii) thus, SSRs marker system is a valuable marker for varietals identification and for genetic diversity study of elite breeding materials.
IDENTIFICATION OF CDNA FRAGMENT TIGHTLY LINKED TO NV AND TM-2 LOCI IN TOMATO
Authors: Sobir , , Motoyoshi Fusao
Published: February 2019

Tm-2 is a resistance gene in tomato to Tomato Mosaic Virus (ToMV), located in heterochromatic region of chromosome nine. Since map based cloning difficult to perform for identify the gene on that region, we apply differential display approach by using two near-isogenic tomato lines (NILs), one without Tm-2 and the other with Tm-2 to identify cDNAs of the transcripts from the region surrounding the Tm-2 locus. Among the 150 combinations of three anchor primers and fifty arbitrary primers, 10 combinations generated cDNA polymorphic bands. Out of them, only one combination of CA6, exhibited polymorphic band under southern blot analysis, subsequently a genetic experiment showed that the CA6 locus tightly linked to the Tm-2 locus. The CA6 fragment also hybridized to genomic DNA fragments from a tomato line carrying Tm-2a, a line of L. peruvianum from which Tm-2a originated, and a tomato line carrying another Tm-2-like gene. A northern hybridization blotting result suggested that the gene corresponding to CA6 fragment was constitutively transcribed.

Informasi mengenai nilai duga heritabilitas tanaman hanjeli diperlukan untuk mengetahui pengaruh genetik dan lingkungan karakter yang diamati sehingga mempermudah program seleksi yang dilakukan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan informasi mengenai nilai duga heritabilitas tiga populasi (#28x#9, #28x#26, dan #38x#37) hanjeli (Coix lacryma-jobi L.). Penelitian dilakukan tanpa menggunakan rancangan tata ruang dengan menggunakan generasi F2 (ditanam sebelum F3) dan generasi F3 yang ditanam dalam plot. Analisis heritabilitas menggunakan metode regresi tetua-turunan (parent-offspring regression). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nilai duga heritabilitas delapan karakter kuantitatif pada populasi #28x#26 dan #38x#37 adalah rendah dan pada populasi #28x#6 memiliki nilai duga heritabilitas rendah untuk tujuh karakter (tinggi tanaman, diameter batang, jumlah daun, jumlah buku, bobot biji per tanaman, bobot 100 biji dengan kulit, dan umur panen) serta bernilai sedang untuk karakter jumlah anakan. Nilai heritabilitas yang rendah tersebut menjadikan seleksi tidak langsung akan efektif dilakukan pada populasi hanjeli ini.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the context, input, process, and product of the Principal Managerial Program in a Salatiga Private Elementary School. This study is evaluative research using CIPP models. The data collection includes interviews, documentation studies, and observations. The data validation was technique and resource triangulation. The study results: a) the context evaluation showed the managerial program of principals in private elementary schools is indeed very much needed by school stakeholders; b) the input evaluation showed the principal managerial program has been prepared to meet stakeholder needs, but has not been supported by human resources, funding, and adequate infrastructure; c) the process evaluation showed the principal’s managerial program carried out based on management functions namely: planning, organizing, supervision, and assessment. Even though it is constrained in terms of human resources, funding, and infrastructure, but the principal still can carry out a minimum managerial program, d) the product evaluation showed the Private Elementary School achieves more in the non-academic field than in the academic field, although from year to year there is a slight increase in the quality of student learning outcomes.
Double Colonization: A Postcolonial Feminist Study Of Sia Figiel’s Where We Once Belonged
Authors: Ahmed Shene Mohammad
Published: February 2019

The article deals with analyzing female characters in the WHERE WE ONCE BELONGED by Sia Figiel. The novel is important for students who study postcolonialism and feminism as it gives an insight for gender and race issues.  The aim of this article is to show how females in a male-dominated societies are persecuted. Furthermore, females are regarded as inferior according to Edward Said’s theory of Orientalism.  The Samoan culture was once colonized by the British. Therefore, the legacy of colonialism and its effects remains there, even after the national independence. It first gives some clarifications about the publishing of the novel and the writer. Then, it comes to the discussion about the colonialism in the novels with its connections to the main characters and how the colonizers were, and also how it affected their lives. In the next part, it explains double colonization. It talks about how almost all of the postcolonial writings were occupied by how women were muted. Then, it recalls how the female characters were suppressed and oppressed by the males and the English dominant power. It shows how they were double-colonized, not having even the freedom to show it.

Determinants of Investment Decisions on the Capital Market
Authors: Jasiniak Magdalena
Published: February 2019

The article deals with the psychological determinants of investment decisions made by an individual investor on the capital market. The purpose of this article is to try to assess the relationship between capital involvement and selected personality traits and how individuals perceive investments in securities of different nominal unit price. The author attempts to verify whether specific price thresholds affect respondents in a similar way as prices of goods and services to customers, in the context of capital investment. The results of the nationwide survey of 564 individual investors are based on analyses using the model of the willingness to invest in shares with a specific nominal value compared to the individual characteristics of the respondents. The results of the study indicate a significant relationship between personality traits and the tendency to choose stocks with relatively low or very high denomination (current transaction price).
