Published: August 2023

Purpose:  This study aims to determine the effect of  Financial Technology, on DANA e-wallet users in the city of Padang.

 

Theoretical framework: Competition in Financial Technology (fintech) is known as a financial inclusion tool that is currently growing very fast. The development of fintech must certainly be of particular concern because it will be in direct contact with the economic activities of the people. in other words, strict supervision must be carried out in this industry related to the regulations that control it, must be comprehensive, clear and transparent. So the development of fintech can provide maximum benefits to the people. (Saragih, 2019).

 

Design/Methodology/Approach: The sample size in this study was adjusted to the Structural Equation Model (SEM). This means that a minimum of 100 samples must be included in the SEM study using Partial Least Square (PLS).

 

Findings: The findings in this study prove that electronic trust and electronic service quality have a significant impact on elecronic customer loyalty through electronic satisfaction as an intervening variable on DANA digital wallet users in Padang city. This proves that satisfaction and customer loyalty will increase along with the improvement of trust and service quality offered in an e-wallet because the user's expectation before using an e wallet is satisfaction and will become loyal.

 

Research, practical & social implications: The Implicative suggestion from this study is that the DANA e-wallet must prioritize user data security to increase trust and improve service quality for convenience in using the application.

 

Originality/Value: Some poor reviews found in the play store application make this a gap in this study. So this research emphasizes the analysis of factors that are considered relevant to influence user decisions, specifically trust and service quality on user satisfaction and loyalty. DANA e-wallet users in Padang city are the subjects in this study using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) approach. The results of this study are expected to contribute to the development of marketing science.
Analysis of the Effect of Substrate Stiffness on the Efficacy of Fibroblast Growth Factor 2 and Bone Morphogenetic Protein 4 in Inducing Pro-Regenerative Astrocyte Phenotype: A Research Protocol
Authors: Krishna Rohan , Silverman Noam , Phan Ryan
Published: August 2023

Introduction: Astrocytes are glial cells essential for neuronal development and repair and are thus a highly promising target for regenerative therapies for neurodegenerative disease. Neurodegeneration has been connected to the degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) components. ECM's structural properties, such as stiffness, influence the phenotypic outcomes of growing cells. Notably, astrocytes are induced into an A2 (pro-regenerative) phenotype when grown on stiff substrates or exposed to specific signalling molecules, particularly fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2) and bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP-4). Given that the ECM can bind and sequester growth factors, it is possible that matrix stiffness may modulate the efficacy of these molecules. Methods: In this in vitro study, rat primary cortical astrocytes will be cultured on soft and stiff substrates and exposed to varying amounts of FGF-2 and BMP-4. This study aims to determine the effect of substrate stiffness on the efficacy of FGF-2 and BMP-4 in promoting pro-regenerative phenotype. Cell proliferation and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) expression are key indicators of reactive astrocytes, including pro-regenerative astrocytes. 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine staining will be used to analyze proliferation. GFAP expression will be determined using anti-GFAP antibody conjugated with Alexa Fluor 594. Further, pro-regenerative phenotypic genes Clcf1, Tgm2, and Ptgs2 will be detected via polymerase chain reaction to differentiate from pro-inflammatory astrocytes, a separate category of reactive astrocytes. Anticipated Results: We hypothesize there will be a greater positive correlation between the concentration of FGF-2 or BMP-4 and expression of markers of pro-regenerative phenotype under stiff substrate conditions, compared to softer substrate, thus indicating dependency or synergy between FGF-2 or BMP-4 and extracellular matrix-dependent pathways. Discussion: The correlation between FGF-2 or BMP-4 concentration and the prominence of A2 astrocyte phenotype indicators will be graphed and reported along with a comparison of these correlations between soft and stiff substrate groups. The authors will attempt to conclude whether substrate stiffness significantly effects the activities of FGF-2 or BMP-4. Conclusion: We hope the results of this proposed study will inform the development of neuroregenerative therapies involving astrocytes by indicating the necessity for greater focus on either the application of signalling molecules or modification of ECM.

Digital Literary Landmarks of Aotearoa New Zealand
Authors: Ciccoricco David
Published: August 2023

Digital literary forms in and of Aotearoa New Zealand have yet to be adequately historicised, and such works – and their authors – risk being lost to New Zealand’s literary history. Addressing the added challenge of doing history in the digital age, I offer an analytical survey of early digital literary works in or of NZ based around the categories of fiction, poetry, performance, and videogames. Cultivating a digital literary history serves us well not only in situating individual works of creative media in our collective cultural heritage but also in situating New Zealand amid broader networked culture.

Published: August 2023

Due to a recent increase in maritime activities in South Korea, the frequency of maritime distress is escalating and poses a significant threat to lives and property. The aim of this study was to validate a drift trajectory prediction technique to help mitigate the damages caused by maritime distress incidents. In this study, OpenDrift was verified using satellite drifter data from the Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency. OpenDrift is a Monte-Carlo-based Lagrangian trajectory modeling framework that allows for considering leeway, an important factor in predicting the movement of floating marine objects. The simulation results showed no significant differences in the performance of drift trajectory prediction when considering leeway using four evaluation methods (normalized cumulative Lagrangian separation, root mean squared error, mean absolute error, and Euclidean distance). However, leeway improved the performance in an analysis of location prediction conformance for maritime search and rescue operations. Therefore, the findings of this study suggest that it is important to consider leeway in drift trajectory prediction for effective maritime search and rescue operations. The results could help with future research on drift trajectory prediction of various floating objects, including marine debris, satellite drifters, and sea ice.

Published: August 2023

Poverty has a contribution to increase the number of street children then, street children are minors who maintain their lives on the streets. Many children stay in the street to make a living every day.  Because they are the country's most important resource, children, the policy and investment decisions made today will have significant implications for the country's future. The aim of this analysis is to analyze the implementation of public policy on behaviour change of street children in Indonesia. The method used in this analysis is Narrative Policy Analysis (NPA). NPA is a research method by using a narrative approach. Policies in dealing with street children in Indonesia are still top-down, so their implementation is measured through the indicators put forward by Edward III which include: communication, resources, arrangements, and bureaucratic structures. However, the needs of street children must also be known through a collaborative approach by combining top-down and bottom-up methods. In conclusion, direct individual support from government officials, the social community, and families also play a role in changing the behavior of street children. Policies that are repressive and do not understand the condition of street children tend not to change the behavior of street children. Policies should concern the real needs of street children and find out the vital causes of why they choose to live on the streets to prevent those condition. This analysis focused only on narrative policy to overcome children’s welfare. Thus, this analysis has a limit in comparing the condition of street children in various cities of Indonesia.
