The impact of earnings-announcement timing on technical analysis signal: The case of Indonesia
Authors: Sulistiawan Dedhy
Published: October 2015

This study discusses technical analysis signal and earnings-announcements timing. Technical analysis signal is used to capture price reaction around earnings announcement dates. Technical analysis is selected because it is potential for competing information as fundamental information in emerging market, especially in Indonesian stock market. The longer reporting lag will result in a tendency of bigger information leakage which makes price reaction before announcements stronger. That reaction produces a reliable technical analysis signal. By using Indonesian stock market data, the results show that (1) technical analysis signal generates bigger (lower) return for late (earlier) reporting, and (2) reporting lag positively affects the performance of technical analysis signal that emerge before annual earnings announcements. These findings indicate a tendency of bigger information leakage for companies that delay earnings announcements. It contributes to building a bridge between technical analysis and earnings-announcement timing studies.

Authors: Karyani Etikah , Utama Sidharta
Published: October 2015

The purpose of this study is to test empirically the relationship between ownership concentration and risk taking by banks which are proxied by the CAR and LDR (li-quidity ratio). The study was motivated by the limited previous studies that analyze the structure of ownership in financial institutions and the weaknesses in sampling. Our analysis focused on Indonesia because this country has implemented the Basel Accord II standards successfully. This regulatory compliance is expected can control banking risk. Using data from 2009 until 2013 and panel data. We found that the ownership concentration become important determinants of bank liquidity. These findings are expected to provide policy guidance for regulators, especially relating to the ownership structure of the bank. However, the ownership concentration proved to be involved in the management decision to risk taking in banks.

It implies that a scale of measurement of the value is perceived by consumers in Islamic banking sector which incorporates valuations of customer value. The proposed model and study findings can greatly help researchers and practitioners understand the perceived value in Islamic Banking sector.
Big-five personality as a moderating variable in the relationship of CEO's perception and the compensation received toward CEO's desire to leave the company voluntarily
Authors: Lindrianasari Lindrianasari
Published: October 2015

The study aims to obtain empirical evidence for the effect of personality on the impact of compensation received by CEO in Indonesia toward CEO voluntary turnover. This study uses two sources of data, primary and secondary. The research population consists of all president directors (as a proxy of the CEOs) of companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The data on CEO turnover were collected manually by tracing the names of the Director stated on the company's annual report. To determine whether CEO turnover was involuntary or coercive, this research examined the growth of the company in which the CEO turnover occurred after the CEO had served a minimum of three consecutive years. Test result on the relationship between com-pensation and turnover indicates that compensation is not strong enough to explain voluntary CEO turnover. Only the control variables included in the model (earnings, returns and ROA) can explain statistically the relationship between compensation and turnover. The result of these two tests (hypothesis one and two) indicates that com-pensation is not strong enough to explain voluntary turnover.

The study of markers of endothelial dysfunction in metabolic syndrome
Authors: Ahirwar Ashok Kumar , Jain Anju , Singh Archana , Goswami Binita , Bhatnagar M.K. , Bhatacharjee Jayashree
Published: October 2015

Background: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) consists of a constellation of metabolic abnormalities that confer increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and diabetes mellitus (DM). Endothelial dysfunction is one of the key components of MetS which is caused by imbalance between vasodilatory substances like nitric oxide (NO) and vaso-constrictive substances like endothelin and prothrombotic factors like plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1).

Objective: To study the markers of endothelial dysfunction (NO and endothelin) and prothrombotic markers (PAI-1) among the study subjects.

Materials and methods: We enrolled 50 diagnosed cases of MetS as per International Diabetes Federation (IDF) criteria and 50 healthy volunteers as controls. Clinical evaluation included anthropometric, routine biochemical, hematological, serum insulin, NO, endothelin and PAI-1 measurements.

Results: Subjects with MetS had higher insulin, endothelin and PAI-1 levels and low NO levels as compared to controls and the difference was found to be significant. The serum insulin levels were positively correlated with PAI-1 and endothelin, and negatively correlated with NO.

Conclusion: Endothelial functional status as reflected by decreased NO and increased serum endothelin levels along with insulin resistance is seen in MetS. Moreover, higher serum level of PAI-1 also tilts towards a more prothrombotic milieu in the vascular endothelium. Hence endothelial dysfunction and prothrombotic markers may be used to guide for early diagnosis of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes in patients with MetS.
Screening of Alternative Carbon Sources for Recombinant Protein Production in Pichia pastoris
Authors: Potvin Gabriel , Zhang Zisheng , Defela Amanda , Lam Howard
Published: October 2015

Seventeen carbon sources were screened to identify those with the potential to support pGAP-regulated recombinant enzyme production by Pichia pastoris, using phytase as a model product. Of these, four, namely glucose, glycerol, fructose and ethanol, supported cell growth and enzyme production, and the performance of the latter two was analyzed. Ranges of acceptable residual carbon source concentrations, i.e. those at which no substrate-related growth inhibition occurred, were determined and used to design fed-batch bioreactor-based processes. In fed-batch cultures, fructose supported higher biomass concentrations and equivalent extracellular enzyme activities than glucose. The same metrics for the cultures grown on ethanol were comparable to those of the cultures grown on glucose, but with a greater required fermentation time.

Authors: Sharma Ajitha , Oommen Shweta , Topno Isabella , Saya Rama Prakasha
Published: November 2015

Background: The aim was to study and compare knowledge, attitude and practices regarding self-medication in healthcare and nonhealthcare university students.

Methods: Suitably constructed, structured and pretested questionnaires were distributed to 350 students in each group; data were documented in SPSS software version 20.0 and analyzed using χ2-test and multivariate logistic regression analysis.

Results: Completed questionnaires only were analyzed, which were 314 and 310 in healthcare and nonhealthcare groups, respectively. The majority of students practiced self-medication (84.4% vs. 68.1%; p<0.001) with the most common indications being fever (46.4% vs. 37.9%; p<0.001) and cough and common cold (30.9% vs. 37%; p=0.004). Most commonly self-medicated drugs were antipyretics (67.9% vs. 52.6%; p=0.03) and multivitamins (28.7% vs. 16.8%; p<0.001). A few of them experienced adverse drug reactions due to self-medication (6.8% vs. 1.9%; p<0.001). Independent risk factors for self-medication were younger age group (OR=2.93, CI 95% 1.09–7.85), storage of medicines at home (OR=2.49, CI 95% 1.21–5.12), healthcare students (OR=2.54, CI 95% 1.72–3.74), higher knowledge scores (OR=1.65, CI 95% 1.08–2.52), those consuming homeopathic preparations (OR=9.19, CI 95% 1.24–68.11), multivitamins (OR=6.7, CI 95% 2.88–15.6) or health supplements (OR=6, CI 95% 2.15–16.74), participants who strongly agreed that self-medication is a part of self-care (OR=3.97, CI 95% 1.56–10.09), and those self-medicating with an old prescription for same illness (OR=0.04, CI 95% 0.01–0.15) or over advice from home (OR=0.11, CI 95% 0.04–0.3).

Conclusions: Though self-medication is common in university students, there is a dearth in their knowledge regarding the same. This highlights the need for increasing awareness among students regarding hazards of self-medication.
Long non‐coding RNAs in corticogenesis: deciphering the non‐coding code of the brain
Authors: Aprea Julieta , Calegari Federico
Published: October 2015

Evidence on the role of long non‐coding (lnc) RNAs has been accumulating over decades, but it has been only recently that advances in sequencing technologies have allowed the field to fully appreciate their abundance and diversity. Despite this, only a handful of lncRNAs have been phenotypically or mechanistically studied. Moreover, novel lncRNAs and new classes of RNAs are being discovered at growing pace, suggesting that this class of molecules may have functions as diverse as protein‐coding genes. Interestingly, the brain is the organ where lncRNAs have the most peculiar features including the highest number of lncRNAs that are expressed, proportion of tissue‐specific lncRNAs and highest signals of evolutionary conservation. In this work, we critically review the current knowledge about the steps that have led to the identification of the non‐coding transcriptome including the general features of lncRNAs in different contexts in terms of both their genomic organisation, evolutionary origin, patterns of expression, and function in the developing and adult mammalian brain.

Psychosocial job characteristics and psychological distress / well‐being: the mediating role of personal goal facilitation: Renato Pisanti, et al. Niccolò Cusano University, Faculty of Psychology, Italy

Objective

This study examined the mediating role of personal goal facilitation through work (PGFW), defined as perceptions of the extent to which one's job facilitates the attainment of one's personal goals, in the association between psychosocial job characteristics and psychological distress and job‐related well‐being.

Material and Methods

Questionnaire data from 217 nurses (84% female, with a mean age of 42.7 years, SD=7.2) were analyzed. Participants completed the following measures: the Leiden Quality of Work Questionnaire for Nurses, Workplace Goal Facilitation Inventory, Maslach Burnout Inventory‐Human Services Survey, and Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (short version). A cross‐sectional study design was applied. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses were conducted.

Results

The results indicated that unfavorable psychosocial job characteristics (high demands, low control, and low social support) were associated with lower PGFW. Furthermore, personal goal facilitation through work explained significant additional variance (from 2 to 11%) in psychological distress (somatic complaints and emotional exhaustion) and job‐related well‐being (personal accomplishment, job satisfaction, and work engagement), controlling for demographic indicators and psychosocial job characteristics. Finally, the results provided support for the mediating effects of PGFW between all psychosocial job characteristics and all outcomes, except in the case of depersonalization.

Conclusions

This study suggests that hindered personal goal facilitation may be a mechanism through which psychosocial job characteristics have a negative impact on employees’ wellbeing.

Os ritmos circadianos são aqueles que apresentam um período de 24 h, como, por exemplo, o ciclo sono-vigília, temperatura corporal, atividade e comportamento alimentar. Distúrbios provocados pelas alterações nos horários de sono/vigília influenciam o apetite, a saciedade e, consequentemente, a ingestão alimentar, o que parece favorecer o aumento desses transtornos. Percebe-se que o comportamento alimentar pode ser influenciado por ritmos circadianos. Porém, mais estudos e o maior conhecimento sobre a ritmicidade alimentar podem contribuir com o melhor entendimento do comportamento alimentar atual, atuando na prevenção e/ou tratamento de transtornos alimentares.

UNDERSTANDING GENETIC STRUCTURALISM FROM ITS BASIC CONCEPT
Authors: Muniroch Sri
Published: October 2015

Strukturalisme genetik muncul untuk menjembatani kesenjangan antara  teori strukturalisme dan teori sosiologi sastra. Lucien Goldmann, sebagai penggagas, selain mengungkapkan teorinya juga menawarkan metode analisisnya. Teori ini lebih mudah dipahami lewat gagasan Goldmann tentang sifat dasar perilaku manusia yang dipengaruhi tiga sifat dasar, yaitu kecenderungan terhadap signifikansi, konsistensi, dan transendensi. Sifat-sifat dasar ini adalah dasar bagi semua penelitian sastra. Sesuai dengan konsep itu, teori strukturalisme genetik berawal dari konsep tentang fakta kemanusiaan (human fact). Subjek fakta kemanusiaan meliputi subjek individual dan subjek kolektif. Fakta kemanusiaan yang memiliki peran dalam sejarah, termasuk karya sastra, merupakan fakta sosial yang hanya mungkin diciptakan oleh subjek trans-individual, yaitu subjek yang mengatasi individu, yang bertindak karena dorongan aspirasi kolektif dan merepresentasikan pandangan dunia masyarakatnya yang lahir melalui structural process dan de-structive process. Karena itu, studi tentang karya sastra tidak bisa dipisahkan dari totalitas kehidupan masyarakat dan hubungan sosial historisnya. Untuk memahami karya sastra secara menyeluruh, Goldmann memakai metode dialektik dengan menerapkan konsep ‘keseluruhan-bagian’ dan konsep ‘pemahaman-penjelasan’ yang hasil akhirnya adalah penemuan struktur yang dipahami sebagai pandangan dunia masyarakat.

Bahasa dengan keragamannya memiliki karakter yang berbeda-beda pula. Demikian juga perbedaan antara bahasa Arab dan bahasa Inggris. Kalimat sempurna dalam bahasa Inggris selalu diawali dengan subyek, sementara dalam bahasa Arab bisa diawali dengan subyek maupun predikat, yaitu yang dikenal dengan jumlah ismiyah dan jumlah fi’liyah, bahkan bisa diawali pula dengan kata depan atau preposisi yang jika dilihat dari perspektif bahasa Inggris bukan merupakan kalimat (sentence), tetapi merupakan phrase. Diakhirkannya subyek setelah predikat dalam bahasa Arab memiliki tujuan tertentu, baik dari sisi pengucap, pendengar maupun situasi dan kondisi. Yang demikian ini bukan berarti apresiasi bahasa Arab terhadap subyek tidak setinggi bahasa Inggris, tetapi ini semakin menunjukkan betapa bahasa Arab lebih dapat merepresentasikan kondisi jiwa dan perasaan pengucap maupun pendengar sesuai dengan kondisi.

FROM SOCIOLINGUISTICS TO COMMUNICATIVE LANGUAGE TEACHING

Published: October 2015

Aliran Sociolinguistik sebagai respon dari aliran linguistik yang dipelopori oleh Chomsky memberikan pandangan baru terhadap hakekat bahasa. Menurut aliran ini bahasa tidak dipandang sebagai aturan-aturan gramatikal formal semata, tetapi lebih sebagai alat komunikasi.   Memahami bahasa manusia berarti memahami bagaimana manusia berkomunikasi satu sama lain dan bagaimana proses komunikasi terjadi. Memahami hakekat bahasa sama saja dengan  memahami bagaimana bahasa itu berfungsi di tengah masyarakat. Menguasai bahasa berarti memiliki kompetensi komunikatif, yaitu kemampuan untuk menggunakan bahasa dengan benar dan tepat sesuai dengan konteks sosial. Kompetensi komunikatif meliputi kompetensi linguistik, kompetensi sosiolinguistik, kompetensi wacana dan kompetensi strategis. Dalam ranah metodologi pembelajaran bahasa, aliran tersebut melahirkan  pendekatan  pembelajaran bahasa komunikatif  )Communicative Approach(.

Penggunaan Bahasa harus memiliki hubungan dengan dunia luar. Hubungan tersebut berkaitan dengan maknanya. Makna dalam karya sastra berarti intensi yang dimiliki penulis/pengarang karya sastra tersebut.

Bahasa dalam karya sastra  sangat multidimensional di mana ia terdiri  dari kata-kata yang memiliki multi makna: denotatif dan konotatif.
STRUKTUR SEMANTIK KONSEP MANUSIA DALAM AL-QUR'AN

Published: October 2015

Semantic analysis on the human structure in The Koran is always interesting to be discussed, especially the one related to the human characterization with its entire symbolical characteristics embedded to the vocabularies applied to them. Human being, in Koran, is termed in many words “Ins, Basyar, Insan, Bani Adam and Naas”. This article does not show the relation between human characters, male and female. Instead, it limits the discussion on the human being portrayed by Koran not considering the division of male and female. In this phase, male and female are the same. They are not burdened by unique load for each male and female human being. Instead, they are given characteristics as human being according to the existence. Existentially, it can be said that human being is a group of living creatures among the other God’s creatures that is divided into two kinds, jin group and ins group. The ins group is the combination between basyar and insan. The first form of human being is Adam who bring forth the descendant so that all human being born after him is called bani Adam. The descendants of Adam living in the nowadays space and time in called naas. Ins, basyar, insan and bani Adam is a particular concept of human being. Such concept is used by God to remind human being, naas, to always remember to their characteristics that they are ins, basyar, insan and bani Adam. They are bounded to the consequence of the concept.
