Authors: Bugaj Justyna , Stańczyk Izabela , Grześkow Małgorzata
Published: September 2022

Issued connected with work assessment have been described in literature many times: starting from planning and carrying out this process, to the effective use of its results. However, this process still inspires a lot of emotions in both interested parties: the evaluated and the evaluating. In this paper, particular attention is paid to the last element of the process which consists in a post-assessment interview. The effects and expectations towards this interview have been presented on the basis of the analysis of the subject literature and results of questionnaire piloting in one company specializing in selling airconditioning equipment. In consequence of the above considerations, it has been stressed that the linkage of the achieved results with other HR processes occurring in the company, such as bonuses for well-performed tasks, promotions, relocations or developing talents, is the most important element of employee’s work assessment and also a driving force. The article is the discussion of the course of the work assessment, rules of providing feedback and results of the examination of employees’ opinions on assessment interviews.
​Integrated Nutrient Management in Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.)
Authors: Mallick Rambilash , Majumder Kasturi
Published: September 2022

Background: Importance of Integrated nutrient management through recycling of organic sources of wastes and renewable sources of bio-fertilizers are gaining popularity due to rising cost of energy and limited input availability. The current study aimed to investigate the combined effects of inorganic fertilizer, organic manures and bio-fertilizers (INM) on growth and productivity of sunflower. Methods: This experiment comprised of ten treatments which includes farm yard manure (FYM @ 10 t/ha, FYM @ 5 t/ha), Vermicompost (VC @ 5 t/ha, VC @ 2.5 t/ha), Bio-fertilizers (PSB, AZ), foliar spray NPK 19:19:19. Result: Maximum seed yield of 2.48 t/ha and 2.41 t/ha were obtained by the treatments T10 and T6 respectively. The physiological trait like CGR (3.216 and 3.210 g/day/plant) also recorded significantly higher values for the treatments T10 and T6 than all other treatments. It was also found that among organic manures, vermicompost at 5 t/ha produced higher seed yield than FYM at 10 t/ha. From this investigation, treatment T10 (VC @ 2.5 t/ha + PSB + AZ + 50% RDF + foliar spray) could be recommended to the farmers for sunflower cultivation. In case of acute shortage of vermicompost, farmers can go for treatment T6 (FYM @ 5 t/ha + PSB + AZ + 50% RDF + foliar spray) as this could be eco-friendly since chemical load to the environment has been 50% curtailed.
Exploring Stress, Forgiveness, and Quality of Life for Individuals Living With HIV and in Recovery From Substance Use Disorders
Authors: Coleman Jamian , Dispenza Franco , Zeligman Melissa
Published: September 2022

Research focused on individuals living with HIV, or recovering from substance use disorders (SUDs), suggests that these individuals may experience a poorer quality of life (QOL) than the general population. Further, conflicting views exist regarding the psychosocial impact of living with multiple chronic health conditions. This study aimed to understand how individuals evaluated their QOL, forgiveness, and stress in relation to their HIV status and recovery status. A two-way between-groups MANOVA was performed to investigate the effects of HIV and recovery status on QOL, forgiveness, and perceived stress, followed by a series of univariate tests to explore the interaction of HIV and recovery status on QOL, forgiveness, and perceived stress. Findings from this study suggest that persons living with both of these chronic conditions may not be doing as poorly as previous literature may indicate, particularly when considering the intersection of HIV and recovery from SUDs. Clinical implications for rehabilitation counselors are discussed.

Authors:   Hellenic Air Force Academy, Athens, Greece, K. LEKEA Ioanna , G. STAMATELOS Dimitrios , G. STAMATELOS Dimitrios
Published: September 2022

Flight safety is an extremely important parameter in pilots’ training. Every pilot must know the aircraft, its limits, and how he/she will effectively deal with any in-flight contingencies. To this end, flight training includes real flight hours (whether with a flight instructor or solo flights), simulator hours, targeted presentations, and discussions of case studies. In the abovementioned training methods, the flight instructor must be with the trainee at a specific place and for a specific time, which sets practical restrictions. For example, the weather may not always allow for a flight, the simulation of critical situations or mechanical/engine failures during flight may present serious risks, the flight simulator may be off for certain periods for maintenance purposes and the flight instructor may not be constantly available to the trainee. In our paper, we will examine the use of virtual tools for the pilots’ training on flight safety procedures and the relevant regulations of the aircraft

Published: September 2022

Digitalization involves a collective technological progress and a transformation process. Digitalization in the military environment has acquired new perspectives. The level of digitalization of different armies across Europe is not very well known but can be intuited. New current concepts such as AI - artificial intelligence, Internet of Things - IoT, blockchain, big data, Machine learning, augmented reality, virtual reality, extended reality, mixed reality, quantum computing, will be included in the existing military ones (e.g., C4I2SR). Even if the technological advance has increased in the military, the limits of digitalization are referring to the human factor. Reaching the limits of digitalization in the sphere of air defense forces us to design a non- digital backup plan.

Techniques of applying a tracheostomy are presented to avoid serious complications in patients with a new coronavirus infection. A protocol of modified surgical tracheostomy has been developed that takes into account the operation at an early date, only with bronchoscopic control only under anesthesia, only by well-trained personnel, with careful pre and postoperative care.
Student Perception of a Visual Novel for Fostering Science Process Skills
Authors: Wong Michael , Al-Arnawoot Ahmed , Hass Katrina
Published: September 2022

In undergraduate science education, emphasis is often placed on teaching subject matter rather than science process skills (e.g., critical thinking, problem solving). Although important to scientific training, these skills are often not taught because science educators do not feel equipped to teach them. We therefore present a case-scenario activity that aims to facilitate the development of science process skills. This activity, which takes the form of a visual novel, asks students to generate hypotheses for the seemingly odd events that are described in the story. We implemented this activity in a science-process-focused course. Upon completion of the activity, we asked students to submit a written response to the prompt: “What are you taking away from the activity?” In this exploratory study, we conducted a qualitative analysis of these written responses to ascertain whether meaningful codes and themes related to science process would arise from this open-ended prompt. Based on student responses, four main themes emerged: scientific inquiry, student satisfaction, flexibility, and collaboration. These results demonstrated the activity was both enjoyable, and it successfully enabled students to apply science process skills. We offer this activity in anticipation it will provide educators with a tool to include these skills in their classes.
Innovation output indicators
Authors: Viotti Eduardo Baumgratz , Santos Cristiano Roberto dos , Cavalcante Luiz Ricardo Mattos Teixeira , Pinho Roberto de Pinho Dantas de , Costa Leonardo Rodrigues Mattos da
Published: September 2022

This article introduces a new family of innovation output indicators as an alternative to the EU 2020 indicator. The latter is a composite indicator that bears a complex and weak relation to the actual innovation output of economies. The proposed family of indicators (DINNOV) estimates the participation in the economy of enterprises that are both dynamic (or high-growth) and innovative. Its indicators take advantage of both the tradition of indicators produced from enterprise data collected by surveys of innovation and of indicators of business demography and entrepreneurship. Values of DINNOV indicators for Brazil are computed as a proof of concept. A proxy of the DINNOV indicators – the DINNOV-Simplex – is estimated for Brazil and 17 European economies. The new indicators avoid several drawbacks of the EU 2020 innovation output indicator and are easier to communicate to policymakers and the general public.
Deleuze e Guattari para pensar a educação em cièncias

Published: September 2022

Este trabalho agencia a obra de Gilles Deleuze e Félix Guattari à educação em ciências ao jogar luzes sobre o deslocamento que permeia a organização deste componente curricular. O uso destes autores para pensarmos a  educação em ciências, possibilita a (re)inserção da diferença e da multiplicidade, extirpadas do estrato científico pelo sonho moderno de totalização da realidade – que persiste no pedagógico – por meio da redução conceitual operada pela lógica da identidade. Assim, evidencia as (des)continuidades das práticas entre um estrato e outro, como resultado da força de uma tradição que passa a ser subvertida pelo corte epistemológico deleuzo-guattariano.
Narrative interest and meaning of oral folktales transmission group using text mining technique: For the digital archive of 〈Korea Oral Literature Daegye〉
Authors:   The Research Of The Korean Classic, Han Yu-jin
Published: September 2022

This paper examines the aspect and meaning of narrative interests of the whole tradition group and the tradition group according to gender by using text mining technique targeting each 26,542 oral narratives in the digital archive of 〈Korea Oral Literature Daegye〉. For this purpose, the nouns were extracted by analyzing the morphemes from the titles of 26,542 oral narratives using the Mecab class of the KoNLPy package, and then the high frequencies were extracted using the Counter class of the collection package.
As a result, looking at the 30 nouns occupying the highest frequency, the oral folktale tradition group consists of ‘the story of the origin of the place name’, the tale of the ‘tiger’, the story of the ‘goblin’, the narrative showing the ‘relationship of family relationships’, ‘wealth, filial piety, fortune, it is confirmed that he mainly told stories about the values pursued by humans’, such as famous places.
The result of the most oral tales of ‘place name origin’ shows that the narrators perceive ‘story that is worth investigating’ as a place name origin story. The story of ‘Tiger’ brought laughter to the enjoyment class and revealed the value of ‘filial piety’. The story of ‘Goblin’ is a means to satisfy ‘story pleasure’ by conveying the fictional situation in the story as if it were a real event and arousing interest to the enjoyment class to feel ‘creep’ or to solve problems that are difficult to explain in reality. it became. Among the stories that show ‘family relations’, in particular, the story about ‘daughter-in-law’ was overwhelmingly told, which shows that the family relationship that causes the most conflict in reality is that surrounding the daughter-in-law. Nouns such as ‘son’, ‘myeong-dang’, ‘filial piety’, ‘rich man’, ‘grave’, ‘blessed’, ‘filial piety’, etc. It shows that he cares about ‘filial piety’ above all other ideologies. The character’s earnest wish for this is shown to be realized through ‘Myeongdang’, and it can be interpreted in this context that many stories about ‘myongdang’ and ‘grave’ are handed down.
Meanwhile, narrative interest according to gender was examined through 15,088 stories told by 2,916 male narrators and 7,467 stories narrated by 2,004 female narrators. Male narrators recounted many stories about the origin of the place name, and female narrators enjoyed telling stories that showed problems between families. This shows that the lives of female speakers are focused on ‘in the home’ with a ‘family’, which is different from male speakers who enjoy telling stories about ‘Park Moon-soo’, ‘Middle’, and ‘Jeong-seung’ and expand their area of interest outside the house. will be.

Evaluating the impacts of foreign aid on low-income countries in Sub-Saharan Africa
Authors: Mangwanya Maonei
Published: September 2022

Foreign aid comprises of a provision of financial resources or commodities such as food parcels or technical advice and training. The most prevalent type of foreign aid, particularly in developing countries, is Official Development Assistance (ODA) that strives to promote development and combat poverty. In Sub-Saharan Africa, there is a significant dependency on foreign aid which prompts the question; Is foreign aid completely necessary in developing African countries? With a high reliance on foreign aid the focus tends to shift from developing into self-sufficient economies and combating poverty to being dependent states. The paper explores the impact of foreign aid on the development in Sub-Saharan Africa. Because low-income countries are significantly reliant on aid, the study took a qualitative approach using the case study method featuring case studies from Kenya, Togo, and Zimbabwe. From the literature of the study, it is evident that the three countries had become dependent on foreign Aid. Conclusions drawn from the study show that foreign has become a recipe for dependency syndrome. Based on the findings from the literature, there is a need for private investments.
Social media as a strategy for protest movements: A study of #EndSARS in Nigeria
Authors: Adedokun Theophilus
Published: September 2022

The 2020 #EndSARS protests in Nigeria gained global attention. The protests drawn thousands of youths to the streets in a wave of rolling fury that built into one of the largest demonstrations for years in the country.  Unlike previous protests in the country, the 2020 year's protests played out across social networks in a buildup of videos, images, and stories on Twitter Facebook, and other platforms displaying pictures and footage from the streets. This study employed the Social Network Theory in identifying the influence of social media as a strategy for protest movements and for the diffusion of information about #EndSARS and the sustenance of this movement over a long period, despite forces that have tried to silence it. This study argued that the sustenance of protests such as #EndSARS over a long period was dependent on factors such as: (i) that some individuals were more resistant to being influenced than others; (ii) that some individuals tended to be more responsive than others; and (iii) that some individuals seemed to be more affected than others (and were, therefore, more likely to pass the information on to others). The findings revealed that protesters used emotional dynamics, collective identities, symbolic artifacts, and mutual values to sustain protests if their demands were not met on time.
Effect of cybersecurity risk management practices on performance of insurance sector: A review of literature
Authors: Kejwang Ben
Published: September 2022

Cybersecurity is a set of technologies, processes, practices, and response and mitigation measures aimed at ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of networks, computers, programs, and data against attack, damage, or unwanted access. Cyber security risk management strategies include limiting data access to avoid putting sensitive information at risk. The purpose of the study therefore is to evaluate the effect of cybersecurity risk management practices on performance of insurance sector. A desktop literature review was used for this purpose. Relevant seminal references and journal articles for the study were identified using Google Scholar. The inclusion criteria entailed papers that were not over ten years old. According to the findings, detected cyber risks need to be properly addressed in order to prevent secondary impacts that lead to vulnerabilities that interfere with the life of insurance institutions and the well-being of their customers. In addition, the study concluded that insurance industry performance can be improved through the implementation of cybersecurity risk management practices. Since it has been found that cybersecurity risk management strategies have a positive and significant impact on the performance of the insurance sector, the research recommends that insurance companies increase their use. Additionally, financial institutions ought to have funds set aside specifically for the purpose of facilitating the retention of risks, in the event that these risks actually materialize. In addition, the research suggests that insurance companies reorganize their product lines or establish premiums that are competitive in order to reduce the threat posed by their rivals and, as a result, prevent the loss of customers to those rivals. The research further suggest that insurance companies adopt appropriate product pricing in line with estimated risk, as this will ultimately lead to increased profitability.
The effect of social responsibility and managerial ability on firm value-mediated profitability

Published: September 2022

The mining industry in Indonesia has a high enough capitalization value to attract investment. The more investors that invest, the higher the stock price and the value of the firm, yet the mining sector's share price has changed throughout time. The mining industry in Indonesia must likewise be mindful and worried about the environment. Previous research has not explored the correlation between profitability and firm value, which contributes as a mediator. This resulted in a clear gap in the literature. This study contributes to filling a gap in the literature. The mining sector businesses listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2018 to 2020 were chosen as the population, with a total sample of 11 companies selected using the purposive selection approach. The data analysis process has been carried out using SPSS version 28 software. The study's findings revealed that corporate social responsibility and corporate management skills had little influence on business value. Furthermore, the findings of this research show that profitability, as a moderating variable in this study, is a complete mediator of social responsibility and managerial ability to firm value. The presence of profitability mediation in this research yields substantial findings, serving as a warning to investors.
The common characteristics of employment status during the Covid-19 Lockdown
Authors: Dunga Steven Henry
Published: September 2022

The National Development Plan (NDP) of South Africa identifies the main ills that must be dealt with by 2030. These are poverty and inequality. The NDP also clearly points out the need to deal with unemployment. These build into the sustainable development goals with 2030 as the target year for achievement. Both the NDP for South Africa and the SDGs at the global level had these targets set way before the 2019 coronavirus hit. Now given the disruption that this pandemic caused, the trends and possibility of achieving these goes must be investigated. This paper looks at employment focusing on the characteristics of the people that had a job to return to after the hard lockdown in South Africa.  The main objective is to identify the significant predictors of employment status at the household level. The paper uses data from Statistics in South Africa that were collected in 2021 during the midst of the pandemic. Variables such as age, province, race or population group and gender were included in the analysis. The results of the logistic regression show that age, race, age of the province, and household size are all significant predictors of whether the head of the household was in salaried employment during the Covid-19 pandemic. The fact that females were more likely to be in employment is painting a unique picture of the labour force than what is normally observed in the surveys.

One of the significant findings suggests that training in service delivery requirements awareness could positively improve and motivate public officials' performance to remain relevant to the needs of citizens.
Smallpox good and bad: evolution of popular perceptions of the personification of the disease in the Urals in the 19th — early 20th century
Authors: Golikova S.V.
Published: September 2022

In this paper, elaboration of the image of smallpox in popular perception, which manifested itself in connec-tion with the organization of smallpox vaccination by the Russian government, is examined. In the context of the cultural dominance of the ruling class over the people and paternalistic attitude towards it, promulgation of the vaccination is a unique phenomenon for the early 19th century Russia, when the “amount at stake” forced the authorities to appeal to their subjects. It provides an opportunity to analyze the symbols generated by the domi-nant ideology and their perception by traditional consciousness. Propaganda started by means of sermons by the clergy. Numerous Exhortations emphasized contraposition of the benefits of the vaccinated smallpox and the harm of the natural smallpox. The verbal channel of the agitation was supported by a visual one — publication of ”popular prints”. Analysis of the plots in nine images from D.A. Rovinsky’s collection showed that corporeality was recognized as the main means of the visual agitation. Through the image of human body, health and beauty of persons vaccinated against smallpox was transmitted, as well as deformity and hideousness of those who went through the natural smallpox. Having absorbed the dualism of the pro-government propaganda, popular con-sciousness went to create an alternative version of perceptions of the infection and vaccination. By applying the binary oppositions ’friend-foe’ and ’sacred-profane’, people made an important change in their own system of values: unlike other epidemics, such a particularly dangerous infection as smallpox had changed its place in the traditional worldview. It stopped being associated with plague and death and became recognized as being “one’s own” and ”godsent”. Therefore, it should not be opposed but should be accepted with gratitude as a ”gift of God”. Intercultural communications on the subject of smallpox vaccination are not only a vivid illustration of the ambigu-ous impact of the dominant ideology on a folk culture; the emergence of socially and culturally differentiated im-ages of smallpox, having drawn a new demarcation line between the scholarly and folk cultures, deepened the rift in the Russian society, as well as introduced additional difficulties in the process of immunoprophylaxis and made it difficult to identify and treat the smallpox patients.
Natural and geographical peculiarities of the territory of resettlement of Russian peasants in the northern forest-steppe of the Middle Irtysh River region
Authors: Tikhonov S.S.
Published: September 2022

In this paper, the features of the natural and geographical conditions of the northern forest-steppe of the Middle Irtysh region, which Russian peasants began to develop at the beginning of the 18th century, are exa-mined. The criteria that led the peasants to consider these lands convenient for resettlement have been analyzed. Nowadays, these lands belong to the Gorkovsky and Sargatsky districts of the Omsk Region. The sources for conducting this work were represented by archaeological, ethnographic, and geographical data on this area. The author believes that the natural conditions of the right and left banks differ significantly in the studied area. On the left bank, there is a wide floodplain with a large number of the flooded lakes, small rivers and streams. On the floodplain, there are uplands which become islands during the floods. On the left bank, two lines of villages ap-peared: the first was located on the terrace of the Irtysh River, the second — along the hills on the floodplain. The terrace approaches closely the right bank of the Irtysh; therefore, the cases of coastal collapse and the associated processes of intensive formation of the ravines are frequent there. There is a small amount of water of good qua-lity, while the groundwater runs at a depth of more than 20 m; therefore, cascades of dams were built in the ra-vines. The villages are arranged in two lines, first of which is located directly on the terrace, most often at the mouths of the ravines. The second line of the villages is 8–12 km from the terrace at the tops of the ravines. Here, good quality groundwater is available at a depth of about 3 m. Arable lands, comprising rich black soil, stretch along both banks of the Irtysh. With distance from the Irtysh, more and more lands appear to be less suitable for agriculture. Therefore, these areas were populated later than the banks of the Irtysh. Landslide processes, sti-mulating the active formation of the ravines on the right bank of the Irtysh, were unfavorable in a long term per-spective. Firstly, they occurred with a period of 50 years. Secondly, the coast collapsed at its maximum over about 1 km length. Therefore, the first settlers might have not known about these processes. However, if one takes into account the patterns of the resettlement of the indigenous population, then the absence of archaeologi-cal sites does not necessarily indicate uninhabitedness of the territory, since their settlements could have been destroyed. Although in general, if one to talk about the criteria of the favorableness of land for resettlement, then the presence of not only land, but also arable land and good water must be contemplated.
Study of the culture of the Russian population of South of Western Siberia by the staff of the Research Institute of Art Industry in the 1950s–1970s
Authors: Shcheglova T.К. , Rykov A.V.
Published: September 2022

In this paper, the contribution of the staff of the Research Institute of Art Industry to the study of Russian long-term resident population on the territory of the Altai Krai, which up to 1990 included Gorno-Altai Autonomous Region, is presented and analyzed. The analysis is conducted on the basis of studying the collection of the field materials by identifying all expeditions which took place, their routes, participants, and results of the field re-search. The main sources of the research were represented by the archival funds of the institute, which appeared to be fragmentary. The main part of the materials was deposited to the Russian National Museum of Decorative, Applied and Folk Arts. For the subject of this paper, the reports on scientific topics and field trips are of the most interest; an extensive body of visual sources (sketches and photographs) have been used as well, whose superior quality was achieved through participation of professional staff artists and photographers in their production. The population of the Altai Krai (modern Altai Krai and the Altai Republic) were embraced in the field work in the 1950s — 4 expeditions (1951, 1954, 1955, and 1956) and one in 1979. The initial interest was in the culture of the Turkic-speaking population and Turkic traditions of rug weaving and ornamentation. The later expeditions were conducted by two groups — on the study of Turkic and Russian populations. The main objects of the research were architecture, house construction and decoration, weaving, homeware and household appliances and other items which preserved the traces of the long-term residence culture. The revelation for the researchers from the institute was the abundant presence of wooden house carving, both as fragments and as whole complexes. The objects and pieces of art recorded by the researchers are the unique sources which had already disappeared by the 1970s. Part of the collections kept in the Russian National Museum of Decorative, Applied and Folk Arts has primary field materials. These sources were partially published in the works of art historians, but their great eth-nographical potential is not yet exhausted.

Authors: Wahyudi Tri Wahyudi , Puspita Gita
Published: September 2022

Purpose – This study aims to analyze the influence of intellectual capital; and corporate governance on the performance of zakat in Islamic commercial banks. Methodology – Population in this study is Islamic commercial banks registered in the Bank Indonesia database with the period spanning from 2014 to 2019. The samples were filtered using purposive sampling technique based on financial statement data. Analyses were carried out using classical assumption test and multiple linear regression analysis. Findings – The results from multiple linear regression analysess indicate that intellectual capital significantly influences zakat performance at 5 percent alpha level. However, intellectual capital has no effect on zakat performance when variable of corporate governance is treated as an intervening variable. Implications – This research can be used in the future both as a literature review and as a reference material that can be used by zakat institutions, Islamic banking, and the government, especially in Indonesia in managing and determining strategies to improve future company performance.Originality – In general, research using sharia principles for each variable calculation (iB-VAIC and Zakat) are still limited. In addition, there is only a few researchers who use the corporate governance variable as an intervening variable.
Implementasi Logika Fuzzy Mamdani Pada pH Air dalam Sistem Otomatisasi Suhu dan pH Air Aquascape Ikan Guppy
Authors: Aztisyah Diaz
Published: September 2022

Saat ini aquascape menjadi tren dan hobi baru bagi penghobi ikan hias, karena aquascape dapat menciptakan landscape bawah air yang indah dengan penataan batu, karang, pasir, dan tanaman air. Ada beberapa aspek yang perlu dipertimbangkan, misalnya kesesuaian ikan dengan komponen yang ada pada aquascape. Salah satu jenis ikan hias yang dapat digunakan adalah ikan guppy. Ikan ini merupakan ikan hias air tawar yang tropis yang dapat tumbuh pada suhu antara 27°C - 30°C dan pH air berkisar 6,5 – 7,2. Namun dikarenakan kesibukan dan rutinitas aquascaper hal ini menjadi masalah untuk pertumbuhan ekosistem aquascape, dimana hal tersebut menyebabkan kualitas air yang menjadi penentu utama pemeliharaan ikan guppy menjadi tidak stabil. Oleh karena itu akan dibuat sistem kontrol otomatis yang dapat menstabilkan suhu dan pH air aquascape dengan menerapkan sistem cerdas logika fuzzy mamdani dengan menerapkan inputan dari kedua sensor yaitu, sensor suhu dan pH yang terkalibrasi untuk mendeteksi nilai suhu dan mendeteksi derajat keasaman air pada aquascape. Nilai error dan dError dari pH menjadi input untuk penerapan logika fuzzy mamdani. Sistem pengendalian akan bekerja apabila suhu dan derajat keasaman tidak sesuai setpoint, sistem ini akan mati apabila suhu dan pH air mencapai tittik setpoint. Dari hasil pengujian diperoleh pembacaan suhu pada sensor DS18B20 dengan pembanding thermometer raksa mendapat persentase error sebesar 1.4136%, pembacaan pH pada sensor pH SKU:SEN0161 dengan pembanding pH meter digital mendapat persentase error sebesar 0.6813%, dan pembacaan nilai fuzzy dengan pembanding matlab mendapat persentase error sebesar 0.7246%.

Perkembangan e-commerce cukup pesat di kalangan masyarakat Indonesia. Aksesibilitas merupakan faktor penting untuk pengukuran kualitas dan perkembangan website e-commerce yang bertujuan memberikan kenyamanan pada user. Dalam pengukuran kualitas, pengambil keputusan seringkali kesulitan menentukan bobot kriteria yang bersifat subjektif. Untuk mengatasi hal tersebut, diperlukan metode yang memperhatikan kriteria yang bersifat subjektif melalui penilaian oleh pakar. Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (FAHP) digunakan untuk menentukan bobot kriteria yang bersifat subjektif dan metode Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) digunakan untuk melakukan penjumlahan dari bobot yang sudah dihasilkan. Input utama dalam penelitian ini adalah penilaian para pakar sebagai pengambil keputusan yang bersifat subjektif dengan data 10 website e-commerce yaitu Tokopedia, Shopee, Bukalapak, Lazada, Blibli, Orami, Ralali, Bhinneka, JD.ID dan Zalora. Dari penelitian ini dihasilkan analisis kualitas website e-commerce terbaik berdasarkan aksesibilitasnya yaitu website Bukalapak memperoleh nilai jumlah akhir tertinggi yaitu 0,83 dan menduduki peringkat pertama, sedangkan website JD.ID memperoleh nilai jumlah akhir terendah yaitu 0,12 dengan posisi peringkat terakhir. Permasalahan yang paling banyak muncul pada WCAG 2.1 A 4.1.2 Bagian 508 (2017) A 4.1.2 mengenai label kosong sehingga perlu ditambahkannya label untuk kontrol terkait agar mudah dipahami oleh pengguna/user.

Published: September 2022

Regression analysis is one of the statistical analysis used to estimate the pattern of the relationship between predictor variables and response variables . In general, the approach to estimating the regression function is the parametric regression, the nonparametric regression and the semiparametric regression. The approach with parametric regression is used if the shape of the regression curve is assumed to follow a certain pattern such as linear, quadratic, cubic and so on, but in fact there is an unknown pattern of relationship between predictor variables and response variables, so nonparametric regression is used. Then the combination of parametric and nonparametric regression is semiparametric regression. One of the well-known nonparametric regression estimators is the spline truncated. This study was conducted by simulating the relationship pattern of the response variable and the predictor variable that not have specific pattern by following a trigonometric function that formed a regression curve with a standard deviation of 0,05 and 0,25 which formed a different distribution of data, then will be approached with parametric regression (linear, quadratic, cubic) and nonparametric regression (spline truncated linear). Based on the coefficient of determination of each standard deviation, it will shows that the nonparametric regression approach has high flexibility so that it is able to adjust the form of regression curve estimation by itself

Published: September 2022

Introduction
What is the role of cadaveric dissection in the current scenario of anatomy education? We attempted to provide a valid answer to this controversial topic through our study. We analysed the students perspectives of different aspects of learning anatomy with their positive and negative experiences and got a better understanding of their opinions and their experience
Methods
In this cross-sectional study, a pretested and validated questionnaire was used to collect information from the students after approval from the Institutional Ethics Committee. Informed consent was obtained from every student prior to their participation in the study.
Results
Three hundred seventy seven students took part in this study and the response rate obtained was 63.5 %. The majority of the students endorsed that cadaveric dissection has helped them in learning the basic anatomy and has deepened their understanding of complexity of human body and has helped in better performance in clinical postings. The smell of formaldehyde and eye irritation was cited as the major reasons for finding dissection sessions challenging. Most of the students agreed that counselling before dissection sessions will help to alleviate the emotional reactions to cadavers.
Conclusion
The students unanimously agreed that cadaveric dissection sessions are the best way to learn basic anatomy complemented with newer teaching tools like prosections and computer based approaches. However, the problems encountered by the students like smell and irritation of formaldehyde need to be addressed with usage of alternative techniques.
