Online parliamentary election campaigns in Scotland: a decade of research
Authors: Baxter Graeme , Marcella Rita
Published: July 2018

Over the last ten years, the authors have conducted a series of investigations into the use of the Internet by political parties and individual candidates during parliamentary election campaigns in Scotland. These are the only such studies which have looked specifically at the Scottish political arena. This paper provides a longitudinal overview of the results of these studies, and reflects on how new technologies have been adopted by political actors in Scotland in an effort to disseminate information to, and engage with, potential voters.
Open Data and Beyond: Measuring the impact of open data
Authors: Welle Donker Frederika , Van Loenen Bastiaan
Published: July 2018

In recent years, there is an increasing trend of releasing public sector information as open data. Governments worldwide see the potential benefits of opening up their data. The potential benefits are more transparency, increased governmental efficiency and effectiveness, and external benefits, including societal and economic benefits. The private sector also recognizes potential benefits of making their datasets available as open data. One such company is Liander, an energy network administrator in the Netherlands. Liander views open data as a contributing factor to energy conservation. However, to data there has been little research into the actual effects of open data. This research has developed a monitoring framework to assess the effects of open data, and has applied the framework to Liander's small-scale energy consumption dataset.
Polarizing Political Participation Frames in a Nordic Gay Community
Authors: Svensson Jakob
Published: July 2018

This article is based on a research project studying political discussions in the Swedish LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bi-, Transsexual) community Qruiser. These discussions were very antagonistic and rude. The aim is therefore to understand what motivated participation in these heated discussions. The focus is on Qruiser political forum threads. The research is nethnographic through online interviews, participant observations in, and content analyses of, political discussions threads during the month of November 2012. By using framing theory as an analytical tool, the paper seeks to answer which frames attracted and mobilized participation and how this was done. In the article I find that polarizing frames of the left vs the right, the xenophobic vs the political correct, together with a truth and a game frame was used to motivated participation in the Qruiser forum threads.
From Toddler to Teen: Growth of an Open Data Ecosystem
Authors: Heimstädt Maximilian , Saunderson Fredric , Heath Tom
Published: July 2018

In this paper, the authors conceptualize Open Data ecosystems by analysing the major stakeholders in the UK. The conceptualization is based on a review of popular Open Data definitions and business ecosystem theories, which are applied to qualitative empirical data. The work is informed by a combination of discourse analysis and a content analysis of in-depth interviews, undertaken during the summer of 2013. Drawing on the UK as a best practice example, the authors examine a set of structural business ecosystem properties: circular flow of resources, sustainability, demand that encourages supply, and dependence developing between suppliers, intermediaries, and users. The authors identify that gaps and shortcomings remain. Most prominently, demand is not yet fully encouraging supply and actors have yet to experience fully mutual interdependence.
Political campaigning 2.0: The influence of online news and social networking sites on attitudes and behavior
Authors: Faraon Montathar , Stenberg Georg , Kaipainen Mauri
Published: July 2018

This study aimed to examine differences in influence between online news (e.g., New York Times) and social networking sites (e.g., Facebook and Twitter) on attitudes in political campaigns. In a web-based experiment, campaign, polls and election between two fictitious candidates were simulated. Participants’ explicit and implicit attitudes as well as voting behavior were assessed using self-report items and the Implicit Association Test (IAT). The results reveal that information emanating from online news had a significant influence on explicit and implicit attitudes while that of social networking sites did not. Overall, negative items had a stronger impact than positive ones, more so in online news compared to social networking sites. Negative information from either type of media was more likely to change participants’ explicit attitudes in a negative direction and as a consequence also change their vote. Practical implications of the findings and limitations of the study are discussed.
Online Participation in Higher Education Decision-making
Authors: Bohman Samuel , Hansson Henrik , Mobini Pooyeh
Published: July 2018

This article considers online participation in higher education decision-making using the MyUniversity EU project as a case study. MyUniversity was a pilot designed to provide European universities with a web-based system to empower and involve students and other members of the academic community in the Bologna Process. Thirteen universities in Spain, Slovakia, Bulgaria, and Lithuania participated in trials. The study uses data collection methods from across the quantitative and qualitative spectrum: web analytics, online surveys, key performance indicators, interviews, focus groups, participant observation, document studies, and usability evaluations. The results are represented by 10 themes: project design, participation, functionality and usability, impact on decision-making, privacy and trust, institutional resistance, motivational factors, the political, economic, and sociocultural context, language barriers, and moderation and framing. The article ends with a discussion based on the results, including recommendations for future research.
Escaping the Middleman Paradox: Better Reykjavik and Open Policy Innovation
Authors: Lackaff Derek
Published: July 2018

Better Reykjavik is a unique municipal ePetition website that is developed and maintained by a grassroots nonprofit organization, has significant deliberative mechanisms, and has been normalized as an ongoing channel for citizen-government interaction across multiple elected administrations. The primary contribution of this study is an analysis of the novel “interface” that was established between the grassroots-developed technical system and the existing political and administrative institutions of policymaking. I begin with a brief overview of the challenges that citizens and governments face in the implementation of ePetition processes. I then suggest that Landemore’s (2012) “democratic reason” and Coleman’s (2008) “autonomous citizenship” constructs provide useful insights into why and how the Better Reykjavik has made a continuing impact on city governance. Next, I present an analysis of the socio-technical process of the initiative’s software development and political integration, showing how this project moved from the fringes of the grassroots towards the center of public and governmental awareness. I conclude by examining Reykjavik’s “new normal” political culture, which illustrates how a bottom-up, fast-moving technical initiative can productively support the slower-moving processes of democratic governance.

Liquid Separation: Three Fundamental Dimensions within LiquidFeedback and other Voting Technologies
Authors: Mendoza Nicolas
Published: July 2018

The objective of this paper is to capitalize on the experiences of LiquidFeedback, providing insights that can be helpful for future developers of voting technologies. The condition of LiquidFeedback as a digital platform carries dramatic implications in terms of its ability to perceive, secure, and make effective the political expression of the community. Beyond the hype, can the LiquidFeedback platform accurately perceive the political will of participants? As a voting technology, is it socially located in a position from where it can meaningfully change the state of affairs of society? Is it configured so that it guarantees fairness and safety from both public and private perspectives? As a result of the conjunction of interviews and critical analysis, three fundamental dimensions to all voting technologies are proposed: Expressivity, Influence, and Integrity.
Visualization of election data: Using interaction design and visual discovery for communicating complex insights
Authors: Gupta Kuhu , Sampat Shailaja , Sharma Manas , Rajamanickam Venkatesh
Published: July 2018

State elections results in India yield variegated and unique set of insights. Often it is hard to grasp the nuances of local electoral dynamics, and harder to communicate it to an audience not deeply engaged in the local political process, or to an audience from outside the state. While national news outlets do a fairly good job of analyzing and communicating the federal elections, the state elections in contrast have largely remained devoid of rigorous analysis and insightful communication. In this paper, using the data from the Assembly elections that took place in the state of Tamil Nadu in May 2016, we present a process and a set of interaction design and visualization methods to present complex insights. The general principles thus derived, will not only aid analysts and journalists to present their insights more effectively, but also empower the readers, depending on their level of interest and civic engagement, to go beyond what is presented and to discover new insights for themselves.
Intersection of Open Data and Freedom of Information practice in Nigeria
Authors: Mejabi Omenogo Veronica , Azeez Adesina Lukuman , Adedoyin Adeyinka , Oloyede Muhtahir Oluseyi
Published: July 2018

The Freedom of Information (FOI) Act was enacted in Nigeria in 2011. However, Nigeria has been publishing its national budget online since 2007. This paper presents results from a survey in which several stakeholder groups connected to the online national budget of Nigeria were asked to respond to questions of awareness and use of open data and the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act. The results show that respondents who were aware of Nigeria’s 2011 FOI Act made the link with open data practice but indicated that citizens were not taking enough advantage of the Act. Also, custodians of data or information were likely to seek ways to avoid meeting such requests. Nevertheless, Nigerians need to be more educated on the key elements of the Act for its proper and adequate utilization or invocation that could impact more positively on open data initiatives in Nigeria.
eGovernance frameworks for successful citizen use of online services: A Danish-Japanese comparative analysis
Authors: Nielsen Morten Meyerhoff
Published: July 2018

The use of Information Communication Technology (ICT) by the public sector is often highlighted as a key tool for the transformation of public sector service delivery. Recent literature reviews have highlighted the limited understanding of the role played by governance, inter-governmental decision making and cooperation when introducing ICT solutions and online services to citizens. As part of a larger qualitative, multi-country comparison, this article compares the Danish and Japanese approaches to electronic governance (eGovernance) and inter-governmental cooperation to answer the question: Does a strong governance model and high level of intergovernmental action lead to the successful supply and use of online citizen services? The analysis finds that the two cases support academic arguments in favour of a strong eGovernance model and a high level of inter-governmental cooperation and decision making.  The article finds that a political- or public sector-driven and motivated public sector modernisation, a consensus seeking and an inter-governmental approach to eGovernment, trust between actors, and the role of formal and informal are important determinants for success, as illustrated by the continued strength of the Danish governance and joint-governmental cooperation model over the more fragmented Japanese approach. Still, both countries would benefit from a more holistic approach to service delivery, process, and organisational reengineering in order to progress further.The analysis finds that the two cases support academic arguments in favour of a strong eGovernance model and a high level of inter-governmental cooperation and decision making.  The article finds that a political- or public sector-driven and motivated public sector modernisation, a consensus seeking and an inter-governmental approach to eGovernment, trust between actors, and the role of formal and informal are important determinants for success, as illustrated by the continued strength of the Danish governance and joint-governmental cooperation model over the more fragmented Japanese approach.

Perception of Key Barriers in Using and Publishing Open Data
Authors: Beno Martin , Figl Kathrin , Umbrich Jürgen , Polleres Axel
Published: July 2018

TThere is a growing body of literature recognizing the benefits of Open Data. However, many potential data providers are unwilling to publish their data and at the same time, data users are often faced with difficulties when attempting to use Open Data in practice. Despite various barriers in using and publishing Open Data still being present, studies which systematically collect and assess these barriers are rare. Based on this observation we present a review on prior literature on barriers and the results of an empirical study aimed at assessing both the users’ and publishers’ views on obstacles regarding Open Data adoption. We collected data with an online survey in Austria and internationally. Using a sample of 183 participants, we draw conclusions about the relative importance of the barriers reported in the literature. In comparison to a previous conference paper presented at the conference for E-Democracy and Open Government, this article includes new additional data from participants outside Austria, reports new analyses, and substantially extends the discussion of results and of possible strategies for the mitigation of Open Data barriers.

POETRY OF EDWARD THOMAS AND GERARD MANLEY HOPKINS: “ECOCENTRISM” AND EGOCENTRISM
Authors: Talyzina Elena Viktorovna
Published: July 2018

The article makes the first attempt of the comparative-contrastive analysis of the spiritual and creative searches of the poet of the Great War Edward Thomas and the Victorian poet Gerard Manley Hopkins, known primarily for their lyric poems about nature. As continuers of the romantic tradition, both tried to discover the “hidden spiritual power of nature” again, which was felt by the writers of this trend, and access to which had seemed lost by the time of the poets under consideration. The author shows that “ecocentrism” of the former allowed him to come close to the world attitude of romantic poets, while separation from reality and withdrawal into himself brought the latter into a spiritual impasse.
WORD COSMOGONY IN ANDREY BELY’S POEM “GLOSSOLALIA”
Authors: Yakovlev Mikhail Vladimirovich
Published: July 2018

The article analyzes the artistic disclosure of the symbols of the Cosmos and the Word in the poem by A. Bely “Glossolalia”. The novelty of the research concept is determined by the apocalyptic interpretation of etymological, historical-literary, mythopoetic, and anthroposophical allusions in the figurativeness of the work. It is proved that the poet’s idea of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ is revealed in the aspect of the nеo-religious doctrine of original cosmic unity and its restoration as a result of the new revelation of the Word. It is shown that Russian verbal cosmos in the poem has a special role in understanding the eschatological destinies of the peoples.
THEORY OF PRECEDENCE IN THE CONTEXT OF NAME-DROPPING (BY THE MATERIAL OF THE CHINESE LANGUAGE)
Authors: Ageeva Mariya Alekseevna
Published: July 2018

The article deals with the referential points of conjugation of the theory of precedence with the phenomenon of name-dropping and differentiates such related notions as “reference to authority” and “precedent name”. The research is based on the material of the Chinese language as the most representative one in the context of the traditional cultural and communicative vectors “Honoring the Authority” and “Incorporation into Relationships”. The in-depth study of the precedent names functioning in Chinese linguistic culture makes it possible to concretize the notion of name-dropping, its main characteristics and correlation points with the phenomenon of precedence.

“TRANSLATION OF TERMS” AS A PALLIATIVE NOTION
Authors: Achkasov Andrei Valentinovich , Kazakova Tamara Anatol'evna
Published: July 2018

The content of the notion “translation of terms” in the onomasiological and semasiological aspects is considered in the article. On the basis of the analysis of scientific works in the field of terminology and translation studies the authors show that the notion under consideration is palliative, not defined and does not have a determined volume of meaning. As a consequence, the use of the term “translation of terms” does not allow differentiating various aspects of the study of interlanguage terminological equivalents and speech mechanisms for compensating the interlanguage asymmetry of terminological systems. This enables to raise the question of the correspondence of the notion “translation of terms” to the real content of research at the junction of terminology and translation studies.

El artículo aborda el film Cuatreros (2016) de Albertina Carri desplegando arqueológica y genealógicamente las nociones de tierra y territorio, centrándose en la descripción poética de la mítica tierra y de la geografía material llamada “Pampa Bandera”, por la que transitaron los perseguidos cuatreros Velázquez y Gauna. Se abordan las nociones conceptuales de tierra y territorio al mismo tiempo que se interroga la autoctonía y fundación, a través de la que se piensa la biografía fabulada y el mito político, anudados entre la tierra baldía y el territorio de la insurrección, mientras se cuestiona críticamente cualquier forma de taxonomía cartográfica.

The determination of an industrial location is determined by three factors, namely; first, the cost of transport. Second, labor, and third, deglomeration. Variations of the motive, having the same estuary is the achievement of a profitable business destination for the producers. A more comprehensive understanding, that the selection of industrial sites is determined by several factors, among others: first, endowment factors or known as natural resources and energy contained on the surface of the earth and contained therein. Second, the human resource factor. This factor becomes an option for producers by measuring the level of availability of large manpower and skill levels. Third, the capital factor, both physical and non-physical. Fourth, market and price factors. Fifth, agglomeration factor. This factor indicates the situation of centralizing economic activities in certain locations, particularly the center of agglomeration placed at one of the points with the lowest transportation costs. Sixth, the factor of government policy. The choice of location because of this factor became an alternative for producers to maintain and develop their industry although initially it was not profitable, but because of the motive of existence and protection of its industry, the economic consideration was temporarily suspended.

Predicting Part Mass, Required Support Material, and Build Time via Autoencoded Voxel Patterns
Authors: McComb Christopher , Meisel Nicholas , Simpson T. W. , Murphy Christian
Published: July 2018

Additive Manufacturing (AM) allows designers to create intricate geometries that were once too complex or expensive to achieve through traditional manufacturing processes. Currently, Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM) is restricted to experts in the field, and novices may overlook potentially transformational design potential enabled by AM. This project aims to make DfAM accessible to a broader audience through deep learning, enabling designers of all skill levels to leverage unique AM geometries when creating new designs. To demonstrate such an approach, a database of files was acquired from industry-sponsored AM challenges focused on lightweight design. These files were converted to a voxelized format, which provides more robust information for machine learning applications. Next, an autoencoder was constructed to a low-dimensional representation of the part designs. Finally, that autoencoder was used to construct a deep neural network capable of predicting various DfAM attributes. This work demonstrates a novel foray towards a more extensive DfAM support system that supports designers at all experience levels.

Faktor – faktor utama yang mencemari Sungai Remu adalah sebagian besar masyarakat masih membuang sampah ke sungai, air limbah domestik atau rumah tangga yang dibuang langsung ke badan sungai, belum adanya sistem pengelolaan limbah cair rumah tangga dan industri, serta kepadatan pemukiman dan rumah hunian di DAS Remu yang cepat. Paper ini merupakan jurnal dari Tugas Akhir di Program Studi Teknik Sipil Universitas Muhammadiyah Sorong pada tahun 2009.
Text Mining Approach for Topic Modeling of Corpus Al Qur'an in Indonesian Translation
Authors: Rolliawati Dwi , Rozas Indri Sudanawati , Khalid khalid , Ratodi Muhamad
Published: July 2018

The Qur’an is the religious text for Muslims that is revealed to humanity as a guide to solve any problems in all aspects of life. Therefore Quranic text is widely translated in various countries around the world, including in Indonesia which predominantly by Muslim. Difficulties in understanding the Quranic text in Arabic as well as the limited research on the Indonesian translation Quran related to science and technology, have opened a broad challenge to contribute to this realm. This paper proposed topic modelling of corpus in Indonesian Translation Quran by generated four main topics that are firmly related to human life, such as 1) heaven (surga) and hell (neraka), 2) The world (dunia) and the hereafter (akhirat), 3) Science (ilmu), charity (amal), and jihad, 4) Day (siang), night (malam), life (hidup), and death (mati). Those four topics were related to the moderator variables associated with the revelation location of Quranic verses (Makki and Madani). Of all the modeling topics tested by word count, Makki's Surahs contributes above 50% compared to Madani's Surahs. So the study results can be a reinforcement from the science's point of view that Makki verses were indeed emphasizing the faith as the foundation of Islam. This can be seen from the frequencies numbers that indicate the words “hidup” (161), “neraka” (157), “surga” (105), “dunia” (127), “amal” which is closely related to the human faith during their life in the world was discussed more in Makki's verses than Madani's.

UMKM existence cannot be under timed, because UMKM have a proven able to with stand the economic crisis that occurred in Indonesia. However, in the development of UMKM cannot be separated from in habiting fact that hit existence of UMKM. Several classic problems that occur in UMKM is lack of capital in the developing the business, unhealthy market competition that still happening until now is the market competition with product made in china. Lack of information about the market network and still lack of innovation in creating new product-products.

Is mindfulness research methodology improving over time? A systematic review
Authors: Goldberg Simon , Tucker Raymond P. , Greene Preston A. , Simpson Tracy L. , Kearney David , Davidson Richard
Published: July 2018

Background: Despite an exponential growth in research on mindfulness-based interventions, the body of scientific evidence supporting these treatments has been criticized for being of poor methodological quality. Objectives: The current systematic review examined the extent to which mindfulness research demonstrated increased rigor over the past 16 years regarding six methodological features that have been highlighted as areas for improvement. These feature included using active control conditions, larger sample sizes, longer follow-up assessment, treatment fidelity assessment, and reporting of instructor training and intent-to-treat (ITT) analyses. Data sources: We searched PubMed, PsychInfo, Scopus, and Web of Science in addition to a publically available repository of mindfulness studies. Study eligibility criteria: Randomized clinical trials of mindfulness-based interventions for samples with a clinical disorder or elevated symptoms of a clinical disorder listed on the American Psychological Association’s list of disorders with recognized evidence-based treatment. Study appraisal and synthesis methods: Independent raters screened 9,067 titles and abstracts, with 303 full text reviews. Of these, 171 were included, representing 142 non-overlapping samples. Results: Across the 142 studies published between 2000 and 2016, there was no evidence for increases in any study quality indicator, although changes were generally in the direction of improved quality. When restricting the sample to those conducted in Europe and North America (continents with the longest history of scientific research in this area), an increase in reporting of ITT analyses was found. When excluding an early, high-quality study, improvements were seen in sample size, treatment fidelity assessment, and reporting of ITT analyses. Conclusions and implications of key findings: Taken together, the findings suggest modest adoption of the recommendations for methodological improvement voiced repeatedly in the literature. Possible explanations for this and implications for interpreting this body of research and conducting future studies are discussed.
Is research in social psychology politically biased? Systematic empirical tests and a forecasting survey to address the controversy

Published: July 2018

The present investigation provides the first systematic empirical tests for the role of politics in academic research. In a large sample of scientific abstracts from the field of social psychology, we find both evaluative differences, such that conservatives are described more negatively than liberals, and explanatory differences, such that conservatism is more likely to be the focus of explanation than liberalism. In light of the ongoing debate about politicized science, a forecasting survey permitted scientists to state a priori empirical predictions about the results, and then change their beliefs in light of the evidence. Participating scientists accurately predicted the direction of both the evaluative and explanatory differences, but at the same time significantly overestimated both effect sizes. Scientists also updated their broader beliefs about political bias in response to the empirical results, providing a model for addressing divisive scientific controversies across fields.
The Impact of Sexual Assault Prevention Information on Perceived Control and Victim Blaming
Authors: Jago Carl Pierre , Christenfeld Nicholas
Published: July 2018

Universities are required to educate students on the prevention of sexual assault. Victim-focused strategies, which suggest practical measures to minimize the risk of victimization, have become controversial for their potential to exacerbate victim-blaming attitudes. Five studies investigate whether, and when, victim blaming increases as a result of exposure to prevention information. Results demonstrate that victim-focused prevention information can indeed increase victim blaming, and that such an effect, found to result from victim-focused sexual assault prevention information, does not generalize to all victim-focused approaches. It may, therefore, be possible to offer practical advice without promoting such blame shifting.
Their Fault, Not Mine: Religious Commitment, Conservatism, and Americans' Retrospective Reasons for Divorce
Authors: Perry Samuel
Published: July 2018

How does religion influence the ways divorcées frame their divorce experience? Building on Mills’s “vocabularies of motive” concept, I theorize that Americans who are more religious or affiliated with a conservative Protestant tradition will be more likely to emphasize their former-spouse’s role in the divorce while minimizing their own. Data are taken from a large, representative sample of divorced Americans in the 2014 Relationships in America survey. Analyses affirm that divorced Americans who attend worship services more frequently are more likely to say that their former-spouse wanted the divorce more than they did. Looking at 17 specific reasons for divorce, those who feel religion is more important to them are consistently more likely to select reasons that put blame on their former-spouse or circumstances, while frequent attendees are less likely to cite their own behaviors or intentions. Though less consistent, notable patterns emerged for conservative Protestants as well. Given the stigma against divorce in many religious communities, I argue that divorcées in such communities likely feel internal pressure to account for their divorce in ways that deflect blame.
Chinese Parent-Child Relationships in Later Life in the Context of Social Inequalities
Authors: Emery Tom , Dykstra Pearl , Djundeva Maja
Published: July 2018

This paper examines how parent-child relationships vary against the backdrop of socio-economic inequalities evident in China. China is both an increasingly unequal and rapidly ageing country. Understanding how the relationships that Older Chinese have with their children are associated with social inequalities, is therefore of paramount importance. We do this by examining the effect of socio-economic indicators of the parent and child on their relationship in a multilevel, multinomial logit model of parent-child dyads using data from the Chinese Family Panel Study. First, the relationships we observe are not unidimensional and display complex patterns which deviate heavily from a ‘strong versus weak’ description of family ties. The results do not support a family displacement perspective of parent-child relationships but instead suggest that educational and financial resources facilitate support that is associated with greater emotional closeness and negates the need for support which places an emotional strain on the parent-child relationship.
Vogel (2017): Auf ein Wort ... Führung. Ein schwieriges Thema.

Viele atmen beim Thema Führung erst einmal tief ein. In der Wissenschaft, weil man sich sehr schnell zwischen der fast unendlichen Menge an Führungstheorien und -ansätzen verlieren kann. In der Praxis, weil Führung in der Verwaltung schon lange ein heikles Thema ist und nicht selten als zentrale Schwachstelle der Verwaltungsar-beit betrachtet wird. Ein Thema das leider zu oft nur dann auf der Tagesordnung steht, wenn es um Missstände geht
