The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the capital structure (debt to equity ratio, or DER) of PT Bank Negara Indonesia Tbk (BNI) and its expansion potential (sales growth), firm size (size), asset structure, and profitability (return on assets, or ROA). The period covered by this investigation is 2014–2022. Secondary information from financial reports accessible at www.idnfinancials.com, www.bni.co.id, and www.idx.co.id on the internet. The method used is multiple regression analysis, where profitability, asset structure, business size, and growth prospects are the independent components and capital structure is the dependent variable. The classic assumption test includes the following criteria: autocorrelation, heteroscedasticity, multicollinearity, and normality. To assess the hypothesis, multiple regression analysis and the partial test (t-test) are then employed. The findings show that capital structure is significantly and negatively impacted by profitability, as shown by the values of tcount> ttable (-37.203 > 2.028); capital structure is significantly and negatively impacted by asset structure (-50.337 > 2.028); capital structure is significantly and positively impacted by company size (1. 808E-009 > 2.028); and capital structure is positively and significantly impacted by growth opportunity (3.195 > 2.028). In addition, there is a R Square value of 79.8% and a value of Fcount> Ftable (30.695 > 2.48).

Optimizing Parcel Package Selection Using an Enhanced Multiple Knapsack Problem Approach with Greedy Dynamic Programming
Authors: Santoso Dewi Agustini , Rizqa Ifan , Aqmala Diana , Alzami Farrikh
Published: November 2024

This study introduces an enhanced algorithm for solving the Multiple Knapsack Problem to optimize parcel package selection, particularly focusing on balancing value maximization with price and weight constraints. Due to Dynamic Programming requires significant memory, The proposed method employs a heuristic approach such as greedy algorithm, initially sorting items by their value-to-weight ratio and iteratively filling each knapsack to maximize total value while adhering to constraints. The algorithm demonstrates high computational efficiency, solving instances within 0.07 seconds, and achieves a total value of 122.00 across multiple knapsacks. However, the analysis reveals a significant underutilization of weight capacity (44.74%) compared to price capacity (98.92%), highlighting the need for more sophisticated constraint handling. Limitations such as the simplistic heuristic approach and single-objective focus are discussed. Future work will explore the integration of advanced optimization techniques, dynamic constraints, and multi-objective frameworks to improve solution quality and applicability in real-world scenarios. This research contributes to the field by providing a foundation for further exploration of Multiple Knapsack Problem in logistics and resource allocation contexts.
Towards a unified ontology for monitoring ecosystem services
Authors: Affinito Flavio , Holzer Jennifer , Fortin Marie-Josee , Gonzalez Andrew
Published: November 2024

The concept of ecosystem services (ES) has greatly evolved since it was first proposed and, as it gained popularity, has been used in diverse applications. Today, ES are an important part of global and national environmental policies. In this context, there is a call for the monitoring of ES to support their management. The proliferation of terms used with the concept of ES may be a barrier to systematic monitoring. Monitoring ES requires knowing exactly what variables to measure and how they relate to change in the states of ES. It further requires interoperability between methodologies used by the information systems used to operationalise data flows. As such, there is a need to systematise the language used to define ES and the terminology used in their monitoring in a way that is unambiguous and both human and computer readable. Building on advances in other biological fields, we develop an ontology for monitoring ES. Ontologies are tools that operationalise concepts and the relationships among terms used to define them. An ontology further allows people and machines to use the terms consistently. The ES monitoring ontology aligns the language of ES with other ontologies in the biological sciences. We test the ES monitoring ontology with data from three ES in British Columbia, Canada, to highlight how it can enable information sharing and monitoring. We invite members of the ES community to join the effort of developing this ontology for ES so that can it contribute to the challenge of systematically monitoring change in social-ecological systems.
Effect of bulb type on moth trap catch and composition in UK gardens
Authors: O'Connell Booth Reuben , Kunin William
Published: November 2024

Abstract 1. A wide variety of light sources are employed to trap moths, differing in brightness and spectrum. Relatively little is known about how these factors affect the resulting sample. 2. We analyse 7 moth trap bulb types using 10 years of records from the Garden Moth Scheme to provide the largest and most comprehensive comparison of moth trap bulb types to date. 3. 125W Mercury Vapour (MV) bulbs collected the largest samples. The next largest samples were collected by 60W Actinic bulbs (67.80% of 125W MV catch), followed by 15W Actinic (56.66%), 80W MV (55.91%), 40W Actinic (49.12%), 20W Actinic (36.56%) and 6W Actinic (34.33%). 4. We demonstrate that MV bulbs, which emit a larger proportion of long wavelength radiation, collected a distinct fauna to Actinic bulbs, which emit primarily short-wave radiation. Species composition also varied between Actinic bulbs which differ in brightness, with brighter Actinic traps tending to collect a larger proportion of large-winged species. 5. We provide robust support for the ‘mobility hypothesis’ whereby large-winged, strong flying moths are more strongly affected by artificial light (in moth traps or from other sources), suggesting selective pressure against large winged species in landscapes affected by artificial light at night (ALAN). Our findings have significant consequences for survey design, citizen science projects, and for understanding the impact of ALAN on the moth community.

The COVID pandemic has resulted in overwhelming consequences in all fields of education. This global crisis posed challenges to teachers as well as all educational policy makers to prove their adaptability and resilience to the effects of technology on teaching and learning. This study aimed to establish that digital technologies, by making use of storytelling techniques, developed learners’ autonomy, creativity and thus led to learning effectiveness. The study also aimed to identify the extent to which technology made adverse effects on learners during the pandemic in an EFL environment in the Saudi Arabian context, and then endeavor to provide evidence of technology having made a big impact on teaching and learning. This qualitative study was carried out through a documentation survey and a revision of state-of-the-art literature comprising blind peer-reviewed empirical studies. Results reveal that, despite a common perception that technology made an adverse effect on teaching and learning, amidst pandemic, technology provided a large amount of learning opportunities in EFL teaching in the Saudi Arabian context. The implications of the study include providing insights about pedagogical adaptations and changing roles of teachers in an online learning environment.

Published: November 2024

Bureaucratic reform efforts over the years have yet to yield optimal results, leaving government bureaucracy associated with pathologies such as corruption, collusion, nepotism (KKN), slow service performance, and an inability to meet public satisfaction. Digital leadership among heads of local government agencies is expected to contribute significantly to achieving bureaucratic reform. This study aims to analyze the role of digital leadership in facilitating bureaucratic reform in South Sulawesi Province and to formulate a digital leadership model for effective bureaucratic reform. The research employs digital leadership theory as outlined by Klein (2020), which encompasses business characteristics, attitudinal characteristics, and general characteristics, serving as the analytical framework to assess the state of digital leadership among local government leaders in South Sulawesi. The study adopts a qualitative descriptive method, with primary data collected through observations and interviews with key informants. Data analysis techniques include data reduction, data display, and drawing conclusions. The findings conclude that: 1) Not all local government leaders possess effective digital leadership skills, which results in suboptimal contributions to bureaucratic reform. This is evident through the evaluation of business characteristics, attitudinal characteristics, and general characteristics that have yet to support reform in institutional structuring, administrative processes, human resource management, and service delivery. 2) The researcher formulated the “S4P Digital Leadership Model,” developed from Klein’s (2020) digital leadership model, which is believed to contribute to more effective bureaucratic reform. The novelty of this model lies in the incorporation of local wisdom dimensions—Sipakatau, Sipakalebbi, Sipakinge, and Sirri na Pacce—as well as digital leadership prerequisites such as digital literacy, innovation, and collaboration. This comprehensive, contextually relevant, and responsive model can be implemented across different regions in Indonesia, utilizing local cultural values as guiding principles for governance and public service delivery.

Published: November 2024

This study outlines the concept of Progressive Islam—a term for Muhammadiyah’s religious perspective—both historically and based on the ideological foundations of the Muhammadiyah Organization. After a conceptual explanation, this study analyzes the struggles of Progressive Islam in South Sulawesi through historical aspects and direct observations as a Muhammadiyah activist. The study reveals that the early generations of Muhammadiyah in South Sulawesi implemented the ethos of Progressive Islam through the development of educational and da’wah enterprises. However, the emergence of cadres who established different organizations, such as Hidayatullah and Wahdah Islamiyah, highlights ideological challenges and weaknesses in consistent cadre formation. Furthermore, conservatism among Muhammadiyah members in South Sulawesi poses obstacles to actualizing Progressive Islamic thought, despite efforts to address this through Muhammadiyah’s Tarjih Ulama Education program. This study offers practical benefits by providing recommendations to strengthen cadre formation and organizational consolidation to ensure Progressive Islam remains relevant in addressing contemporary challenges. These dynamics serve as an important foundation for sustaining the progressiveness of Progressive Islam in South Sulawesi.

Up to that year, the STBM area had not yet been reached in the entire city of Depok. This indicated that STBM issues were still a priority that needed to be addressed with appropriate solutions. One effort to improve STBM achievements was by providing training related to STBM understanding. The objective of this activity was to provide triggering training in STBM activities to youth groups (karang taruna). The method used in this community service was delivering material through lectures and practical sessions, followed by discussions and Q&A sessions. The empowerment of youth through this activity showed success, with a 12% statistically significant increase in the knowledge of both the youth and cadres. The knowledge gained by the youth groups and cadres through this outreach could serve as a foundation for preventing environmentally related infectious diseases and enhancing STBM achievements in their areas. The local government is expected to support youth activities so that STBM achievements can be reached through the empowerment of youth cadres. Keyword: Environment-based diseases, Sanitation Total Based on Community, Youth Empowerment

ABSTRAK Kekurangan gizi dalam jangka waktu lama dapat menyebabkan kegagalan dalam pertumbuhan dan perkembangan sehingga anak mengalami flatering sampai stunting. Tujuan kegiatan ini untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan ketrampilan para ibu Kader agar ibu-ibu disekitarnya yang memiliki bayi baru lahir berhasil menyusui eksklusif sampai usia 6 bulan untuk mencegah balita stunting. Tetapi kebanyakan ibu-ibu di daerah Johar Baru belum memiliki pengetahuan tentang tehnik menyusui yang benar. Metode yang dilakukan oleh tim Gencar Menyusui Hebat adalah melakukan assessment awal melalui pretest, promosi kesehatan tentang pentingnya menyusui dan diskusi dengan melakukan roleplay. Hasil  pretest pengetahuan tentang menyusui rata-rata mendapatkan nilai 77 dan nilai posttest menjadi 96, artinya ada kenaikan sebesar 19 poin. Kesimpulan bahwa penting meningkatkan pengetahuan tentang manfaat menyusui dan cara menyusui yang benar. Saran pentingnya dilakukan promosi kesehatan tentang menyusui untuk mencegah kejadian stunting. Kata Kunci: ASI Eksklusif, Menyusui, Stunting  ABSTRACT Long-term malnutrition can cause failure in growth and development so children experience flattering to stunting. This activity aims to improve the knowledge and skills of the Kader mothers so that mothers around them who have newborns can successfully breastfeed exclusively until the age of 6 months to prevent stunting in toddlers. However, most mothers in the Johar Baru area do not yet know the correct breastfeeding techniques. The method used by the Gencar Breastfeeding Great team is to conduct an initial assessment through a pretest, health promotion about the importance of breastfeeding, and discussions by roleplaying. The pretest results on knowledge about breastfeeding averaged 77 and the posttest score was 96, meaning there was an increase of 19 points. The conclusion is that it is important to increase knowledge about the benefits of breastfeeding and the correct way to breastfeed. Suggestions for the importance of health promotion about breastfeeding to prevent stunting. Keywords: Exclusive Breastfeeding, Breastfeeding, Stunting
Effects of prey-based and non-prey-based scent enrichment on two zoo-housed monitor lizards

Environmental enrichment is a powerful tool in maintaining positive welfare for captive animals but investigation of this in reptiles has been limited. Monitor lizards are active, intelligent animals that represent high priority targets for enrichment in a captive setting, but more data are required to develop evidence-based recommendations and to understand variation in the responses to enrichment of both individuals and species. We exposed two monitor lizards, Varanus cumingi and Varanaus macraei, both adult females, to olfactory enrichment comprising prey-based and non-prey-based scent trails and then measured changes in activity and tongue-flicking versus a control. Randomisation analysis, employed to deal with small sample size, showed that the V. cumingi significantly increased both behaviours in response to both enrichment types, versus control, while the V. macraei responded significantly only to the prey-based scent for both behaviours. These findings provide an evidence-based case study demonstrating the potential effectiveness of enrichment for captive monitors, but also the need for context-specific evaluation of enrichment strategies to ensure maximal benefit for a given individual animal.
Bromeliad rosettes as shelters for hylid treefrogs during a heat wave in the Brazilian Pantanal

During a heat wave in November 2023, we assessed the use of bromeliad rosettes as shelters for hylid treefrogs in the Brazilian Pantanal (area of Nhecolândia). During the day time, four hylid species (genera Boana, Scinax, Trachycephalus) were detected sheltering in 40 rosettes of the terrestrial bromeliad Bromelia balansae; this was a different species complex from when observations were made in October 2019 when the temperature conditions corresponded to long-term averages. The internal and external day time temperature of each shelter was measured. The mean daytime temperature inside the shelters was 36.1 °C (range 24.0–43.5 °C), this varied depending on the microhabitat conditions, and was 1.1 °C lower than the mean temperature of the leaves of the upper part of the rosettes; the difference was statistically significant. We suggest that during this very dry and hot period the main advantage provided by the bromeliad shelters was to enable frogs to have behavioural control of overheating so that they could avoid excessive evaporative water loss.
The effects of commercial diets on the growth of diamondback terrapins Malaclemys terrapin in head-start programmes

Populations of diamondback terrapins Malaclemys terrapin are declining. Consequently, head-start programmes, in which hatchling terrapins are reared in captivity for 6–9 months and then released into their natural habitat, are needed to help stabilise wild populations. As a contribution to the development of optimal husbandry conditions for future generations of diamondback terrapins in head-start programmes, we examined the effects of two widely available commercial turtle foods (Reptomin® and Mazuri®) on the growth of juvenile terrapins over a period of 12 weeks. While terrapins did well on both diets, we show that terrapins consuming the Mazuri® diet had a significantly greater increase in mass and carapace length compared to terrapins on the Reptomin® diet.
Reproduction and displacements of known-age caimans Caiman yacare in the Pantanal of Brazil

We recaptured 26 female and 24 male Pantanal caimans Caiman yacare of known-age up to 36 years after marking. The relationship between clutch size and age for known-age females was highly variable although one female captured multiple times between 18 and 26 years of age showed little variation in clutch size. Captured known-age females attending nests varied from 73 cm to 89 cm snout-vent length and from 9 to 36 years old. These females continued to grow long after their first capture, so cessation of growth does not appear to be related to reproduction. Most known-age animals were recaptured within 10 km of where they hatched, but usually on a different ranch, so ranches cannot be used as autonomous management units. Our data indicate that the ratio of snout-vent length (SVL) at first reproduction (73 cm) to mean asymptotic SVL reported for this species (85.7 cm SVL) is much higher in female Pantanal caimans (0.85) than has been reported for most other reptiles (0.7).
