Recommendations Enhancing the Competitive Capacity of Small and Medium Enterprises after the Covid-19 Pandemic
Authors: Tien Nguyen Van
Published: March 2022

In Vietnam, the Covid-19 pandemic has taken place since the beginning of 2020, has seriously impacted businesses' production and business activities, and pushed the world economy into recession. Like other countries globally, Vietnam has been severely affected by this global pandemic. During the Covid-19 outbreak, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that stopped production or went bankrupt increased. Besides, due to the deep integration into the global value chain now closed to the port, the findings explored that SMEs with a larger scale faced many difficulties. The number of enterprises having to shrink production also increased rapidly. Most businesses say the Covid-19 outbreak has negatively affected their production and trade. The primary official data is distributed directly to business leaders through detailed questionnaires to collect preliminary data and selected models by a simple random process. SMEs failed to reach customers, broke the supply chain, revenue plummeted, and laid off many workers, so far struggling. The study objectives found that more than 87% of businesses are affected by Covid-19. Therefore, the article novelty had several recommendations for enhancing the competitive capacity of small and medium enterprises in Vietnam after the Covid-19 pandemic. Doi: 10.28991/esj-2022-SPER-09 Full Text: PDF
ON SOME PECULIARITIES OF THE HELLENISTIC CIVILIZATION. POLEMICAL NOTES
Authors:   Institute of World History, Russian Academy of Sciences, Surikov Igor E. ,   Russian State University for the Humanities
Published: March 2022

The author of the paper wrote earlier about pre-Hellenism in the Greek world of the 4th century BC and expounded his understanding of Hellenism. His ideas soon received a response from colleagues – in particular, from O.L. Gabelko and I.A. Ladynin. In this paper, the author responds to his opponents by developing some nuances of his concept. The Hellenistic civilization, taken in comparison with the polis civilization that preceded it (the archaic and classical periods), according to the author, was in a number of respects a regression. It was characterized by the impoverishment of the creative spirit and the loss of former civilizational positions. The original cultural achievements of the polis and the Hellenistic eras were incommensurable. As shown in the paper, the Hellenistic civilization lived by reflecting on the cultural heritage of earlier epoch: studying it, imitating it, arguing with it. Those creations of Hellenism that can still be attributed to masterpieces are such only to the extent that they retain something of the Classical traditions. If the Greek polis civilization is characterized by an intensive development, the Hellenistic civilization can be characterized by an extensive one.
“I WAS FOR THAT REASON OVERCOME BY FEAR”. EMOTIVE LANGUAGE OF FEAR AS CHARACTERISTIC OF PRINCES IN “THE TALE OF BYGONE YEARS”
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Borisova Svetlana A.
Published: March 2022

The research of terms denoting emotions is the main approach for the study of notions about human feelings that existed in the past. Because of the peculiarities of the ancient Russian book culture, we cannot find thorough and detailed descriptions related to the experiences of people in the works of that period. However, those texts contain emotive vocabulary. Exactly its analysis is especially important for understanding the ideas about the emotions of the Middle Ages. The analysis of the emotive language of fear shows, however, that the authors of the Tale of Bygone Years not only and not so much sought to express the feeling of their characters’ fear, but created the characteristics of the characters of the chronicle with the help of emotives. The article analyses the stories of the Tale of Bygone Years about the princes that contain lexemes of fear. Particular attention is paid to the usage contexts of the discovered emotives. The key result of the analysis presented that chroniclers used the emotive language of fear for the moral characterization of princes. The mention of this emotion marks the characters as villains and defines their actions as unrighteous. Fearlessness is as a positive characteristic of princes. Therefore, the emotive language of fear in the chronicle narrative primarily plays a symbolic role and becomes an important element of the evaluation that chroniclers give to their characters.
Reduction Of Bacteria Cells Viability In Injection Water By Using Ammonium Chloride
Authors: Zulkifliani Zulkifliani , Usman Usman
Published: March 2022

Ammonium chloride is one of the biocides used to reduce viability of bacterial cells in  produced water from oil wells that will be applied as injection water. The advantage of this biocide is having high epication penetrate the cell wall, causing death of bacteria cells (bacteriocidal). Tests for antibacterial activity was done by using the API RP-38 method by adding ammonium chloride into the produced water to obtain the final concentrations of 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, and 128 mg/L. Laboratory test results showed that giving ammonium chloride at a concentration of 64 mg/L can significantly reduced the viability of bacterial cells, including groups of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria.
Oxidation Stability Improvement For Jatropha Biodiesel To Meet The International Standard For Automotive Applications
Authors: Fajar Rizqon , Wibowo Cahyo Setyo , Yubaidah Siti
Published: March 2022

Biodiesel from Jatropha oil has several advantages compared to which from Palm oil, among others better cold flow properties (lower cloud point, pour point and CFPP). However, Jatropha biodiesel has an oxidation stability that is too low (2-3 hours) so that its application in the diesel engine is not acceptable. This paper reports the effect of addition of Palm bodiesel and commercial anti-oxidant on the oxidation stability of Jatropha biodiesel. The objective of this research is to find the formulation for Jatropha biodiesel which will meet the oxidation stability determined by World Wide Fuel Charter 2009 (WWFC) of min.10 hours. The required addition of BHT into Jatropha biodiesel is more than 10000 ppm to meet the WWFC specification. The addition of BHT will decrease to less than 10000 ppm if the Jatropha biodiesel was blended with Palm biodiesel as much as 60% v/v. Addition of antioxidant should be limited to a minimum value because there are also concerns about the negative effects of antioxidants on the engine components
Oligocene Palynological Zonation Scheme From East Java Sea
Authors: Lelono Eko Budi , Morley Robert J
Published: March 2022

Systematic biostratigraphic analyses have been undertaken on the Oligocene clastic and carbonate Kujung Formation from the East Java Sea, North of Madura. The succession has been examined mainly using cutting samples in two wells, using a combination of foraminiferal, nannofossil and palynological analyses at regular spacing. Nannofossil analysis indicates that the Late Oligocene to basal Early Miocene succession is more or less complete, with zones NP24, NP25 and NN1 are all being well developed. In addition, the Early Oligocene is indentified by larger foraminifera indicating the Tc/ Td Letter Stage. Because the traditional palynological zonation of Morley (1978) does not work well in this area, the succession has been divided into broad assemblage zones, which appear to be controlled mainly by climate. These zones are OL-1, OL-2, OL-3, OL-4 and OL-5. Zone OL-1 is based essentially on the absence of seasonal climate and riparian elements, whilst zone OL-2 is characterized by the regular occurrence of seasonal climate elements, especially of Malvacipollis diversus. Zone OL-3 is indicated by common to abundant Dacrydium and Casuarina pollen, with a strong acme of dinoflagellate cysts dominated by Operculodinium spp. and Spiniferites spp., whereas zone OL-4 is marked by abundant Dacrydium and regular Casuarina pollen, but low representation of riparian elements. Finally, the youngest zone is OL-5 which is characterized by reduced Dacrydium and Casuarina pollen, and increased riparian elements. The above palynological zonation suggests climate change, which closely parallels the climate succession from West Java Sea (but with changes less pronounced). Therefore, this study provides a well dated Oligocene palynological zonation which can be applied across Java.
A Review Of Biodiesel Development In Indonesia: Current Status, Future Potential And Its Impact On The Environment
Authors: Aisyah Lies , Wibowo Cahyo Setyo
Published: March 2022

Indonesian government issued National Energy Policy in 2006 that will reduce role of fossil fuels and increase role of renewable energy in 2025 as a target year. Bio-fuels are one of the renewable energy focuses in Indonesia. In 2009, biodiesel production capacity was 1.12 tons per year and expected to rise every year. Target of biodiesel usage increasesgradually from B-10 in 2006-2010, B-15 in 2011-2016 and B-20 in 2016-2025. The policy and its target are set by the government to diversification energy source, to boost economic growth (especially regional development and creation of employment) and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Currently the main feedstock of biodiesel in Indonesia is derived from palm oil. Some concerns arise related to palm oil biodiesel such as competition between food versus energy and environmental issue in particular replacing forest to oil palm plantations and biodiversity loss. Therefore, development of biodiesel feedstock from non-edible crops and can be grown in non-arable land are very important for future biodiesel development in order to eliminate competition with food and prevent deforestation and biodiversity loss.
Choice Of Water Saturation Model In Log Analysis And Its Implication To Water Saturation Estimates – A Further Investigation
Authors: Widarsono Bambang
Published: March 2022

Water saturation is one of the most important governing factors in hydrocarbon in place and reserves estimation. Error in the estimation of water saturation may signifi cantly impose bias in the estimation of both quantities. In spite of there are various factors affecting potential error in water saturation estimation, choice in water saturation model(s) appears to play an important factor. This study involves eight water saturation models that are widely used in log analysis up until today. Using the same input data, the eight models have proved themseleves to have produced different water saturation estimates. Using a moderate level of water saturation error of 20% evaluation may result in up to 50% error in the reserves estimates. Observing the wide disparities in the estimated water saturation values yielded by the models used in this study, errors higher than 50% may take place. This evidence should strengthen our awareness over the potential error and careful applications of model(s) – and validation of results – that have to be observed.

Grounded in constructivism and considering the context of literature studies, the current research examines the direct and indirect impact of students’ perception of their teachers’ indigenous knowledge and cultural competencies on their learning outcomes via an underlying mechanism of student engagement.  The current study aims to provide insightful recommendations for academicians and school administrative bodies to provide necessary teacher training and development facilities so they can better transfer their knowledge to the students. Furthermore, the current study brings several theoretical and practical advances in the context of literature studies. Utilizing a time-lagged quantitative research design, data were collected from the 536 literature students from the higher educational institutions of Indonesia. Moreover, data were analyzed using structural equation modeling in SmartPLS3 software.  The results revealed that students’ perception of their teachers’ indigenous knowledge and cultural competency positively influences their learning outcomes in terms of cognitive, social, and interpersonal skills. Besides, no significant differences were found between the impact of teachers' indigenous knowledge and cultural competencies on students learning outcomes reflecting the utmost importance of both study constructs in enhancing students’ abilities. Moreover, results also revealed the significant mediatory role of students' engagement between their perceptions of teachers’ indigenous knowledge and cultural competencies to enhance their learning outcomes.
The Matrix of Ethnic Federalism in Ethiopia in Protecting Internal Minority Rights: Examining Perceptions in Oromia Regional State
Authors: Mulugeta Getaye , Woldemariam Gizachew
Published: March 2022

This study aimed to analyze the matrix of ethnic federalism in protecting internal minority rights in Ethiopia via Goba and Robe towns as a case study at Oromia regional state. The post-1990s political formula of Ethiopia was designed considering all ethnolinguistic groups as inhabitants of their own defined territory. It seems that in the architecture of the constitution, there will be ethnic homogeneous states. But, the reality in the ground has shown that none of the units is purely homogenous due to economic migration, (re)settlement, villagization programs, and freedom of movement granted in the constitution. A mixed approach with a cross-sectional survey was used. Questionnaires, interviewees, focused group discussion, and document analyses were used as a primary data. Snowball and purposive sampling were used to select survey respondents. In both town administrations, a kin situation exists; there are constitutional and other legal frameworks gaps, inducing mistrust and tension between minorities and dominant groups, systematic segregation, denying fair and effective representation at levels of government. Therefore, adequately recognizing and legalizing the rights of internal minorities should be the prime duty of the region, establishing particular institutions mandated to protect internal minorities, and government should work on fostering people-to-people integration to reverse the looming mistrust.
The Imperial Regimes as a Root of Current Ethnic Based Conflicts in Ethiopia
Authors: Moreda Tefera Assefa
Published: March 2022

Current ethnic conflict in Ethiopia is not a simple byproduct of Multinational federalism and politicization of ethnicity since 1991. Regardless of the contradictions and debates over the core causes of ethnic conflict in Ethiopia, it is impossible to fully comprehend it without a thorough and honest examination of the pre-1991 country's history in terms of ethnicity and ethnic conflict. The article analyzed the historical root causes of ethnic conflict in Ethiopia by taking Minilik’s II and HaileSelassie’s I regimes into account. Hence, a Dialectical approach and historical method were employed to conduct a critical investigation of the core causes of ethnic conflict. The article found that the country's current ethnic politics and ethnic warfare sowed during the imperial regime. Minilik II and his successor conquered, confiscated, subjugated, enslaved, and dehumanized the southern nations, nationalities, and people in the consecration of Ethiopia's current territory. During imperial administrations, Ethiopia was seen as a prison-house of people. Ethnic identity has been taboo during the imperial regimes of Ethiopia. The article found that the imperial regimes of Ethiopia were the precursor to both immediate and potential ethnic-based detestation, animosity, and violence that resulted in the country's lengthy and deadly civil wars. Based on a dialectical method, this article discovered that the process of Ethiopian state creation resulted in sustainable and predictable cyclical rotation of contradiction and contestation between thesis and antithesis, without creating strong syntheses. Moreover, the misappropriation of concepts of nationalism and nation-building has been common in the country's political history
Examining Mathematics Achievement: An Analysis of Fourth and Eighth Grade TIMSS U.S. Data by Ethnicity, Gender, and Sociocultural Variables
Authors: Moon Chi Yun , Larke Patricia , James Marlon
Published: March 2022

Previous research studies about mathematics performance have continuously reported race/ethnic or gender gaps. Learners have different educational experiences depending on not only their ethnicity or gender, but also grade and sociocultural factors. However, only a few studies have considered all these factors integrally. Hence, the need of examining academic performance differences across ethnicity, gender, grade, and sociocultural variables led this study. The purpose of this study was to examine mathematics academic achievement of 4th and 8th grade African, Latinx, and Asian American students related to students’ ethnicity, gender, grade, and sociocultural variables such as student bullying, parental involvement, and engaging teaching. The guiding research question for this inquire was: Which factors (gender, student bullying, parental involvement, and engaging teaching) do predict the mathematics achievement of 4th and 8th grade African, Latinx, and Asian American students? The participants were total 9,605 fourth (n=4,785) and eighth grade (n=4,820) African, Latinx, and Asian American students in TIMSS 2015 U.S. national public-use data set. According to the results of multiple linear regression analyses, parental involvement was a significant predictor for all students across grade and ethnicity. In addition, engaging teaching from mathematics teachers significantly predicted 4th and 8th grade Latinx American students’ mathematics achievement. This study revealed that gender, student bullying, parental involvement, and engaging teaching had different level of impacts on mathematics achievement of each group of students.
Casamento natural, casamento-sacramento e Religiosidade Popular (II)
Authors: Groetelaars Martien
Published: March 2022

Existe, de qualquer maneira, uma problemática enorme em torno da cultura ocidental e da cultura oriental. Explico. Por cultura ocidental entendo a cultura impregnada de conceitos e valores cristãos. Por cultura oriental entendo a cultura não impregnada desses conceitos e valores. Dizem os entendidos no fenômeno da secularização, que ele é fruto do cristianismo. Na cultura oriental predominaria o «pensamento selvagem». Seja como for, o casamento na cultura ocidental está relacionado em grande parte com igrejas cristãs. Basta pensar num país como a Suécia, tida como «pagã», onde a Igreja Luterana é a Igreja Nacional ou Igreja do Povo (Volkskirche). O continente latino-americano é tido como católico, pessoalmente não vejo muita diferença entre a Igreja Nacional Anglicana da Inglaterra e as diversas igrejas nacionais católicas da América Latina. Maliciosamente poder-se-ia dizer: Será que o sincretismo religioso, embora em outras formas e expressões, nas diversas Igrejas Protestantes é tão diferente do sincretismo religioso das diversas Igrejas Católicas? A cultura global do Brasil também é profundamente marcada pelo catolicismo. Por isso, tentaremos relacionar aqui o casamento-sacramento e catolicismo popular.

Published: March 2022

Salah satu warisan seni tradisi yang terancam mengalami kepunahan adalah Tarian Leko Desa Kukuh kecamatan Kerambitan Tabanan–Bali. Keilmuan Desain Komunikasi Visual memiliki peluang dalam upaya pemecahan permasalahan, karena mampu merubah proses berpikir khalayak sasaran dengan mengedepankan medium komunikasi visual sebagai elemen interaksi. Kurangnya minat generasi muda mempelajari dan menekuni ‘Tari Leko’, ditengarai menjadi salah satu penyebab kesenian tradisi tersebut terancam menuju kepunahannya. Faktor lainnya adalah tingkat popularitas ‘Tari Leko’ yang semakin berkurang karena jarang dipentaskan akibat adanya pandemi Covid-19. Kondisi tersebut terjadi karena Bali mengutamakan sektor pariwisata sebagai pendukung keberlangsungan seni tradisi dan budaya. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat bertujuan memberikan pelatihan mendesain merchandise ‘Tari Leko’ Desa Kukuh Kerambitan. Kegiatan dilaku­kan bulan Juli–Agustus 2021 dan diikuti oleh anak–anak serta para remaja Desa Kukuh. Materi yang disampaikan dalam kegiatan pelatihan adalah penggambaran burung ‘Cetrung’ yang menjadi referensi visual penokohan ‘Tari Leko’ Desa Kukuh. Tahapan ini merupakan proses penjaringan ide ilustrasi yang berasal dari imajinasi anak–anak. Hasil penggambaran tersebut menjadi literasi visual karakter maskot ‘Tari Leko’. Maskot akan diaplikasikan pada media berupa T-Shirt dan Totebag sebagai merchandise dan tahap perwujudannya dilakukan bersama para remaja yang tergabung dalam komunitas seni. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini mendapat respon positif dan mampu meningkatkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan peserta pelatih­an dalam mengonsepkan desain merchandise.
Reverie in der (Gegen-Über)tragung
Authors: Strauss Laura Viviana
Published: March 2022

Obwohl die Reverie des Analytikers4 einen Prozess voraussetzt, der absichtlich induziert wird durch die psychoanalytische Haltung von ›no memory, no desire‹, ist ihre Entstehung von der Erwartung an die evolutive Fähigkeit der Psyche und ihre Transformationen geprägt. Bions Beschreibung von Transformationen, die sich in verschiedenen Ebenen organisieren, wird durch die Einbeziehung von autistischen Transformationen, in die das Gebiet der Sinnesempfindungen Eingang finden, und die Dimension der Nicht-Existenz des mentalen Erlebens ergänzt. In diesen Fällen ist die Projektive Identifizierungskommunikation (PI-Kommunikation) gestört und der Prozess ist sensorischen Stürmen ausgesetzt, welche die Entwicklung der Reverie beeinträchtigen. Ich habe durch die Beschreibung eines klinischen Falles versucht darzustellen, wie der Prozess der Reverie nicht unbedingt an lange Zeiträume gebunden ist, sondern blitzartig durch eine senso-korporale Manifestation entstehen kann, die dem Analytiker einen Zugang zu der objektalen Funktion protomentaler Bereiche ermöglicht. Psychische Bedeutung kann erkannt werden. Vielleicht könnte dieser Zustand als eine autistische Reverie in Zeiten des Krieges bezeichnet werden, die es dem Analytiker ermöglicht, seine bewusste Aufmerksamkeit von der Wucht der sensorischen Manifestationen abzuziehen und ihnen eine objektale Funktion zuzuweisen.
Die Körperreaktion des Analytikers
Authors: Steinbrecher Michael , Hartung Thomas
Published: March 2022

Paula Heimann weist als eine der ersten Analytikerinnen auf die Bedeutung unbewusster Prozesse für die Gegenübertragung im Analytiker11 als Reaktion auf die Mitteilungen seines Analysanden hin. Die vorliegende Arbeit zeigt die Entwicklung und Erweiterung auf, die unser analytisches Verständnis für diese Vorgänge genommen hat. Im Zentrum unserer Überlegungen steht das körperliche Erleben des Analytikers innerhalb des psychoanalytischen Prozesses. Es stellt den oftmals ersten fühlbaren und somit bewusst erlebbaren Hinweis auf das komplexe Geschehen in der therapeutischen Beziehung dar. Ist der Analytiker in der Lage, diesen Hinweis als Bedürfnis des Analysanden zu erkennen, ihn für sich zu gewinnen, dann wird er sich dafür sensibilisieren können. Der Analytiker kann nunmehr beginnen, sein Gegenübertragungssymptom durchzuarbeiten und vor dem Hintergrund seiner eigenen Geschichte zu verstehen. Nicht selten nimmt dieser Prozess einen längeren Zeitraum in Anspruch, weil sich der Analytiker durch seine somatische Reaktion mit eigenen ›blinden Flecken‹ konfrontiert sieht. Drei Fallvignetten veranschaulichen, wie diese auch den Analytiker selbst verändernde Arbeit auf unterschiedlichen Ebenen gelingen und für den psychoanalytischen Prozess genutzt werden kann.
Helferbelastung in Traumazentren
Authors: Pross Christian
Published: March 2022

Die vorliegende Studie über 13 Traumazentren zeigt, dass Organisationen mit hohem Stressund Konfliktpegel von dysfunktionalen Strukturen gekennzeichnet sind wie: mangelnde Einhaltung von Grenzen, Über-Identifikation mit Klienten, Mangel an professioneller Distanz, Fehlen gemeinsamer Ziele und Behandlungskonzepte, unklar definierte Leitung, endlose basisdemokratische Teamdiskussionen mit permanenter Beziehungsarbeit sowie Rollenund Kompetenzdiffusion, in Grabenkämpfe verwickelte informelle Leiter, nicht vorhandene oder nur sporadische klinische Supervision, hektische und unkoordinierte Interventionen, Workaholismus, Selbstaufopferung, ein »Märtyrerkomplex« gepaart mit Größenund Rettungsfantasien, unzureichende oder nicht vorhandene Selbstfürsorge. Diese Phänomene haben mit den Besonderheiten der Kultur von NPOs zu tun. Das Leiden und die Missstände, welche diese einzudämmen suchen, sind grenzenlos und die Ziele werden nie erreicht. Die Mitarbeiter sind einem enormen moralischen Druck ausgesetzt und haben ständig das Gefühl, nie genug getan zu haben. Gibt es keine klar autorisierte Leitung, die dem entgegenwirkt, Prioritäten und Grenzen setzt, gibt es keine Supervision und Konfliktbearbeitung durch unabhängige Fachkräfte, laufen NPOs Gefahr, in ihrem Innenleben genau jene missbräuchlichen und destruktiven Prozesse zu reproduzieren, die sie nach außen hin bekämpfen.
Erinnerung an offene Fragen
Authors: Witzel Hauke
Published: March 2022

Die Ökonomisierung und Beschleunigung hat besondere Konsequenzen für die Soziale Arbeit. Rationalisierungstendenzen wirken tief in die Praxis hinein und beeinflussen dabei auch die Art der Erkenntnisbildung Sozialer Arbeit. Ein identifizierendes Denken dominiert die professionellen Hilfen, was zum positivistischen Zwang zur Antwort und zum Verlust offener Fragen führt. Jedoch mahnt uns die Psychoanalyse auch mit dem Unbewussten, dass Ungewissheiten die Arbeit mit Menschen immer begleiten und Momente des Nicht-Wissens sowie des Nicht-Verstehens unumgänglich sind. In seinem Beitrag reflektiert Hauke Witzel die Ungewissheiten Sozialer Arbeit als Negative und diskutiert einen Ansatz, die Grenzen professioneller Praxis nicht aus der unmittelbaren Hilfe auszuschließen. Anhand von Fallbeispielen aus der aufsuchenden Psychoanalyse des Sigmund-Freud-Instituts in einer Erstaufnahmeeinrichtung illustriert der Autor einen selbstreflexiven Zugang zur Praxis, der die Negativität zum Ausgangspunkt eines konkreten beziehungsorientierten Angebots für Geflüchtete werden lässt.
Partizipative Forschung digital und vielfältig
Authors: Thönnes Lea
Published: March 2022

In diesem Beitrag wird die Erprobung eines neuartigen Formats für die bisherige partizipative Forschung vorgestellt. Der Forschungsprozess beruht ausschließlich auf einer digitalen Umsetzung und dies mit einer Personengruppe mit vielfältigen Teilhabebeeinträchtigungen. Dies stellt alle Projektbeteiligten vor neue Herausforderungen, die im folgenden Beitrag dargelegt werden. Der partizipative Prozess ist im Projektvorhaben zum Aufbau eines Teilhabe-Panels angesiedelt. Denn nach wie vor stehen die Alltagsund Arbeitswelt von Personen mit einer Teilhabebeeinträchtigung bei Meinungs-, Markt-, Sozialund wissenschaftlicher Forschung zu selten im Fokus oder sind gar nicht erst Teil der Betrachtung. Dazu bedarf es eines Instrumentes, das den Meinungsinstituten und wissenschaftlichen Einrichtungen einen ausreichenden Zugang zu Personen mit Teilhabebeeinträchtigung schafft, die längerfristig bereit sind, Auskunft über ihre Lebenswirklichkeit zu geben. In diesem Projekt wird nun mit einer digitalen und vielfältigen partizipativen Forschung ausgelotet, wie ein solches Panel ausgestaltet und bestenfalls realisiert werden könnte. Die Elemente der partizipativen Forschung sind Gegenstand dieses Beitrags.

The main purpose of this research is to propose and empirical test a conceptual model that clarifies the relationship between green hotel practices and customer citizenship behavior (CCB) with the mediating role is green hotel image and satisfaction in the perspective of customers. To test the hypothesis this research utilizes the data collected from a questionnaire survey from tourists who have visited the Moc Chau national tourist area, Son La – a mountainous province situated in the North West of Vietnam. Finally, the authors collected 212 valid questionnaires to test the hypothesis. The testing results indicated that green hotel practices positively influence customer citizenship behavior. Moreover, green hotel image and customer satisfaction contribute as the mediating effects in the relationship between green hotel practice and customer citizenship behavior. In contrast, green hotel image and customer satisfaction do not act as the serial mediation in this relationship.

Water resources in the world are becoming scarce due to both natural climatic conditions under the effect of climate change and human-induced activities. The population is rising day-by-day leading to a steady decrease in water resources, which in turn, highly disturbs the natural ecological functions of the vulnerable systems. Lakes can be addressed as important water bodies that are under the effect of shrinkage in different parts of the world, and if no remedial measures are taken, they will disappear in the near future. Lake Burdur in Turkey is among such lakes that lose its water volume over time. This study was performed via a group of interdisciplinary scientists to analyze the spatial and temporal changes in the water surface area in the long-term (1985-2020) and in the short-term (2016-2020) with the aim of putting forth the areal changes. Remote sensing technology was utilized for this purpose. Landsat imagery and Sentinel 2 images were utilized for the long and short-term assessments, respectively. Meteorological conditions during the inspection terms were obtained from the State Meteorological Service to determine the dominating reason(s) of area changes over time. Natural conditions and anthropogenic activities are linked with the findings. Resultantly, water withdrawals from the dams and reservoirs built in the region and from the streams feeding the lake for irrigation purposes during the dry season represent the human-induced activities dominate over the natural causes of climate change as is the case in most of the water bodies of the world. This outcome was also confirmed by a detailed analysis of the agricultural areas in the basin through satellite images and by field trips made at the site.
Subfertility in Buffaloes and the Association of Detected Milk Microbes
Authors: Gautam Anil
Published: March 2022

Lactogenesis is a complex physiology and an outcome of a successful reproductive cycle in mammalians. The purpose itself is to nourish the newborn with the nutrients necessary for its protection and growth a continuation from the in utero survival strategy. Thus, mammary development and physiology are intriguingly linked to the uterine changes that happen in a normal reproductive individual. Milk is a highly nutritious food that also favours the growth of microorganisms that can enter through the bloodstream or the discharge system. Briefly, the mastitis-induced release of inflammation mediators such as cytokines, interleukins, and prostaglandin F2α are established to be associated with infertility. Before breeding, mastitis can disrupt hormonal patterns (depression of estradiol production, delayed surge of luteinizing hormone) and delay ovulation. The issue of clinical mastitis is obvious but when subclinical mastitis persists for long the problem gets compounded. Thus, microbes get easily established in the mammary glands of buffaloes whose udder and teat anatomy, love for dirt, and swamp to wallow makes them more vulnerable exposing them to various kinds of pathogenic and opportunistic microbes. Buffaloes, by nature, have issues with silent heat, seasonal anestrus, more sensitive to direct radiation heat stress when faced with a pathological attack of infectious microbes in the milk chamber compromises their fertility.

Smart, or just lucky? Inferring question-asking competence from strategies’ efficiency versus effectiveness
Authors: Swaboda Nora , Ruggeri Azzurra
Published: March 2022

Previous research shows that children evaluate the competence of others based on how effectively someone accomplished a goal (e.g., success vs. failure, time needed, number of attempts needed). We investigate whether 5- to 10-year-old children and adults infer competence from how efficiently someone solves a task. Whereas efficiency is a reliable indicator of competence, effectiveness may depend on unrelated external factors (e.g., luck). Across two experiments, we varied how efficiently and how effectively different agents solved a 20-questions game (Experiment 1 and 2) and a maze-exploration game (Experiment 2). In Experiment 1 (N = 121), only adults identified a more efficient agent as more competent, and all participants erroneously attributed higher competence to agents needing fewer questions even when they employed the same inefficient strategy (reflective of the same level of competence), suggesting that they failed to consider effects of luck. In Experiment 2 (N = 220), adults and children from about 8 years onwards successfully identified the agents using the more efficient strategy as more competent. Overall, our results suggest that effectiveness is a powerful cue for competence even when such an inference may not be warranted, and that the ability to make explicit competence judgements based on strategy efficiency alone emerges around 8 years of age, although, as shown in previous work, a more implicit understanding of competence may already be present during the preschool years.
Social Debunking of Misinformation on WhatsApp: The Case for Strong and In-group Ties

Published: March 2022

In this paper, we argue that WhatsApp can play an important role in correcting misinformation. We show how specific WhatsApp affordances (flexibility in format and audience selection) and existing social capital (prevalence of strong ties; homophily in political groups) can be leveraged to maximize the re-sharing of debunking messages, such as those accessed by WhatsApp users via ChatBots and Tip-Lines. Debunking messages received in the format of audio files generated more interest and were more effective in correcting beliefs than text- or image-based messages. In addition, we found clear evidence that users re-share debunks at higher rates when they received them from people close to them (strong ties), from individuals who generally agree with them politically (in-group members), or when both conditions are met. We suggest that WhatsApp leverages our findings to maximize the re-share of those fact-checks that are already circulating on the platform by using the existing social capital in the network, unlocking the potential for such debunks to reach a larger audience on WhatsApp.
