Published: April 2023

This work examined the relationship between entrepreneurial resilience and growth of small and medium enterprises in Port Harcourt. Objectives of the study were to examine how dimensions of entrepreneurial resilience such as proactiveness and resourcefulness enhance measures of growth in terms of sales growth and business expansion. The survey research design was adopted. The target population for this study comprised of 316 owners and employees of some selected SMEs in Port Harcourt, Rivers State. The sample size of 175 respondents was determined by using Krejcie and Morgan sample size determination table. Data were collected through primary (questionnaire) and secondary (textbooks, journal articles and internet). A structured questionnaire designed in four point likert rating scale format was adopted for the collection of data. Out of 175 questionnaires administered, the researcher was able to retrieve 152 copies. Spearman Ranking (r) was used for the test of hypotheses via SPSS Version 23.0. The findings revealed that there is a significant relationship between entrepreneurial resilience (proactiveness and resourcefulness) and growth (sales growth and business expansion) of small and medium enterprises in Port Harcourt. The study concluded that entrepreneurial resilience has a favourable outcome on growth of small and medium enterprises in Port Harcourt as it reveals that entrepreneur’s proactiveness and resourcefulness are veritable resilient components to combat with adversity internal and external the business, as it promotes effective sales growth and business expansion. The study recommended amongst other things that management of small and medium enterprises in Port Harcourt should create new fits between demand and supply towards identifying new opportunities in line with perceived disruption and delving into it to enhance effective operations and sales growth as the turbulence emerge; Creating a good social network is a source to acquire resources in times of difficulty. Thus, entrepreneurs should improve their social network base as they will help during perilous times by directly or indirectly providing resources for entrepreneurs thereby improving their business expansion.

Authors: Bleau Maxime , Djerourou Ismaël
Published: April 2023

The Open-Science fabrication laboratory movement is an ongoing student initiative at the School of Optometry of the University of Montreal. The pilot project, the OptoFAB, is a collaborative space specially dedicated to producing low-cost material for research purposes based on the Open-Science and Maker movements. It aims to:1.Promote Open-Science and the fast dissemination and replication of research.2.Provide accessible training for students in a multitude of disciplines (i.e., 3D printing, 3D modeling, coding, robotics).3.Encourage interdisciplinary collaborations between the different programs (e.g., research, clinical, engineering).Our laboratory model will benefit laboratories and provide students with more opportunities during and beyond their (under)graduate studies. As students are the next generation of researchers, the Open-Science fabrication laboratory aims to give them more resources to develop multi-faceted skills, improve their self-efficacy and help them build their research careers. This paper describes our model and how we aim to measure our impact ongoingly and to improve the tools and services we put at students’ disposition. We hope that, through this paper, other universities might join the movement and replicate our model within their research programs.
Te Ontstaan of niet te Ontstaan, Reductieve Vrijheid creëert Leven, Zijn en Dood
Authors: Frederiks Bert G. J.
Published: April 2023

Dit artikel verklaart sterke emergentie in reductionistische termen. Ik presenteer twee wetten die samen de structuur van de werkelijkheid van de kwantummechanica tot aan het bewustzijn voorspellen. De vrijheidswet voorspelt (op een reduceerbare manier) hoe en wanneer een nieuw systeem, 'leven', 'zijn', of zelfs nieuwe 'materie' kan ontstaan en waar reduceerbaarheid stopt. Hierbij is leven natuurkundig gedefinieerd als een stroomsysteem van eindige omvang dat in de tijd volhardt (en dat steeds gemakkelijker toegang biedt tot de opgelegde stromen die er doorheen vloeien). De Levenswet, of Bejan's "constructale wet", voorspelt hoe dit systeem, 'zijn' of 'leven' zal evolueren of sterven. Als het blijft bestaan dan is het óf dood in die zin dat het (deels) 'versteend' is, óf het is levend in die zin dat het volhardt in zijn "ontwerp" terwijl het een proces is. Deze evoluerende structuur omvat en verklaart het "Evoluerende Blok Universum" ("Evolving Block Universe") van Ellis. Meestal zijn de "blokken" hierin tenminste fysisch 'levend' geweest. Maar er bestaat veel meer emergentie dan deze blokken. Ter illustratie en als uitwerking worden deze wetten toegepast op onze hersenen en ons bewustzijn, en op de unificatie van de kwantummechanica en de algemene relativiteit -- op universeel leven en op het leven van het universum.
SilicH2O: a graphical user interface for processing silicate glass Raman spectra and quantifying H2O
Authors: van Gerve Thomas , Namur Olivier
Published: April 2023

H2O contents of magmas strongly impact the explosivity of volcanic eruptions, as well as their rheological properties and crystallisationbehaviour. Accurate analyses of H2O in magmatic liquids are therefore vital for our understanding of the dynamics of magmaticprocesses and eruptions. Raman spectroscopy provides an accessible, affordable and high spatial resolution technique for estimatingH2O contents of magmas that have been quenched to a glass during eruption. However, calculating H2O concentrations from Ramanspectra involves manual data processing and results are therefore sensitive to the specific treatment used. SilicH2O is an open-source software program that uniformises and streamlines this process by providing an interactive graphical user-interface. It can beused to: (a) process Raman spectra of silicate glasses, (b) remove any unwanted peaks through interpolation and unmixing, (c) set upH2O calibrations with reference materials and (d) quantify H2O contents of unknown samples.
Perspective Matters: When Visual Perspective Reshapes Autobiographical Memories
Authors: St. Jacques Peggy L.
Published: April 2023

Memories are prone to distortions, which have been linked to our unique point-of-view. Not only do we experience events from a particular visual perspective, we can also retrieve events from one of two perspectives: 1) an own eyes perspective, from the same viewpoint where the event was initially experienced, and 2) an observer-like perspective, where we might “see” ourselves in the remembered event. The particular visual perspective adopted, as well as the ability to shift between perspectives, is associated with changes in the subjective and objective characteristics of memories, which has led to debate regarding whether the presence of novel perspectives reflects inaccuracies or distortions. In this target article I will provide an overview of research on visual perspective in memories for events by discussing the circumstances in which adopting an observer-like perspective signals changes in memories that impact their veridicality and the legal applications to eyewitness testimony.
Self-control and grit predict school performance: strongly genetic, weakly causal
Authors: Kevenaar Sofieke , van Bergen Elsje , Oldehinkel Albertine , Boomsma Dorret , Dolan Conor V.
Published: April 2023

Background: The non-cognitive skills self-control and grit have often been cited as predictors of school performance, but a limited number of studies have addressed the question whether this relationship is causal. We investigated the causal nature of this association in a classical twin design, with mono- and dizygotic twin pairs. Specifically, we evaluated the direct impact of self-control and grit on school performance, while controlling for genetic or environmental influences common to all three traits (i.e., confounding). Methods: Teachers of 4,891 Dutch 12-year-old twin pairs (of which 3,837 were complete pairs) completed a survey about school performance (school grades), self-control (ASEBA self-control scale), and the perseverance aspect of grit. We utilized the twin design to regress school performance on self-control and grit, while simultaneously controlling for genetic or environmental confounding. Establishing the regression relationship, corrected for confounding supports the interpretation of the regression relationship as causal. In all analyses, we corrected for sex, rater-bias of the teachers, and parental socioeconomic status. Results: Self-control and grit explained 28.4% of the school-performance variance in the standard phenotypic regression analysis (without taking into account confounding). However, allowing for genetic confounding (due to genetic pleiotropy) revealed that the association was largely attributable to genetic influences that the three traits share. In the presence of genetic pleiotropy, the phenotypic regression of school performance on self-control and grit accounted for 4.4% (i.e., the effect size association with the causal hypothesis). Conclusions: The association between self-control and grit as predictors of school performance is attributable to genetic pleiotropy, and, to a much lesser extent, to causal effects of self-control and grit on school performance.
Limiting Factors in the Effectiveness of Crowd-Sourced Labeling for Combating Misinformation
Authors: Bak-Coleman Joseph B
Published: April 2023

Crowd-sourced labeling has been proposed as a solution for reducing the spread of misinformation on social media. Although there is evidence that labeling misinformation can reduce engagement at an individual level, we lack insight into whether crowd-sourced labels can have similar impacts at scale. To estimate the efficacy of crowd-sourced labeling, we adapted a computational model of viral misinformation spread parameterized by a corpus of 12.9 million tweets from the 2020 US presidential election. Our simulations reveal that individual-level reductions in engagement from crowd-sourced labels did not directly translate into commensurate reductions in the spread of misinformation. This is due to a number of factors, including the time required to surface a helpful note, the proportion of tweets labeled, and the extent to which labels target highly-engaging content. Yet even if crowd-sourced labels are prompt and well-targeted, they are unlikely to be as effective as combining more traditional forms of content moderation. Overall, crowd-sourced labeling-based may be better used as a supplement to traditional content moderation rather than a standalone replacement.

Authors: Terok Eiredania Rynewati , Huwae Arthur
Published: April 2023

ABSTRACTA badminton athlete can excel if he has the motivation to excel. However, some athletes, especially in Tolitoli Regency, still show a lack of motivation to excel. In improving the performance of an athlete, apart from having the motivation to excel, the need for good social support from parents, friends, and coaches. Therefore, this study aims to determine the achievement motivation of badminton athletes in Tolitoli Regency in terms of social support from parents, friends, and coaches. The type of method used is quantitative with a correlational design. The participants who were involved in this study were 42 badminton athletes in Tolitoli Regency, using the quota sampling technique. The scale used is the athlete's achievement motivation scale and the social support scale. Based on the product moment correlation test from Karl Pearson, it was found that there was a positive relationship between parental social support and athletes' achievement motivation. On the other hand, social peer support is not significantly related to athlete achievement. Likewise with the support of social coaches which are not significantly related to the athlete's achievement motivation.
The Actuarial Conditions for the Valuation of Pension Liability to Become Zero Under Minimum Funding Standard Architecture
Authors: Ogungbenle Gbenga Michael , Omede David Ilemona
Published: April 2023

Pension valuation exercises for a defined benefit scheme requires an appraisal of both the schemes assets and its liabilities in different circumstances. The valuations are required to comply with regulatory standards, most notably the minimum funding standard. The objectives of this study are: (i) to compute the estimate of minimum funding standard of pension liability (ii) to establish the actuarial condition under which minimum funding standard liability will be zero. This study used minimum funding standard models for the computations of accruing liabilities for the current and past service liability of employees. Data in respects of different categories of employees were collected over 36 employees from a going concern located in Jos South local government of Plateau State in Nigeria. The data includes the employee’s annual salary and their respective demographic data which includes sex, date of birth, date of employment. This was used to determine the number of years of pensionable service completed and the future years of services to be completed before retirement at the age of 65 years. The study also used life annuity table to compute the service liability of each member of the scheme. From the model used, the result shows that the total service liability of the plan will be vanishingly zero when the newly defined annuity component approaches zero hence this represents the condition for liability of the plan to the members to be zero.

Mathematical Modeling of the Effect of Vaccination on the Dynamics of Infectious Diseases
Authors: Alimi Akeem Adeyemo , Ayoade Abayomi Ayotunde
Published: April 2023

The development of vaccines revolutionized the methods of controlling infectious diseases and has saved many lives. In this work, an SEIR epidemic model was designed to demonstrate the impact of vaccination on the control of epidemic diseases. The model was shown to possess positive solutions. The disease-free equilibrium and the endemic equilibrium of the model were derived and the stability properties of the two equilibriums were examined via stability theory of nonlinear differential equation. An important epidemic-controlled parameter, the reproduction number, was derived for the model and computed via simulation using parameter values from published data. The result of the simulation showed that vaccination was capable of inhibiting the outbreak of epidemic diseases whenever the numerical values for reproduction number are less than unity.

The hypergeometric functions are one of the most important and special functions in mathematics. They are the generalization of the exponential functions. Particularly the ordinary hypergeometric function 2F1(a, b; c; z) is represented by hypergeometric series and is a solution to a second order differential equation. Similarly, Laplace transform is a form of integral transform that converts linear differential equations to algebraic equations. This paper aims to study the convergence of hypergeometric function and Laplace transform of some hypergeometric functions. Moreover, some relationships between Laplace transformation and hypergeometric functions is established in the concluding section of this paper.

Compositional properties and codon usage pattern of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase I gene among potamidids
Authors: Shabani Zulfa I , Mfilinge Prosper L , Mpenda Fulgence N
Published: April 2023

Codon usage bias (CUB) refers to an unequal occurrence of specific synonymous codons in a genome with variations within and among species. Findings suggest that CUB is significant in interpreting evolutionary trends of species and/or genes. However, information of CUB remained unclear for organisms in the family Potamididae. This study examined compositional features and codon usage patterns of coI gene among potamidids to identify factors shaping CUB. Quantification of CUB and the identification of causative factors were performed by assessing nucleotide composition, effective number of codons (ENC), relative synonymous codon usage (RSCU), parity rule (PR2) analysis and neutrality plot analysis as well as correspondence analysis (CoA). Results from neutrality plot suggested that natural selection is the dominant evolutionary factor for CUB in the coI gene among the different genera of potamidids. In contrast, CoA, PR2 and ENC analyses indicated the existence of mutational pressure with minor contribution. Nucleotide composition investigations indicated that most codons are AT rich; with T nucleotides count being highly presented. Thus, compositional restraint was also among the reasons behind the pattern of codon usage in coI gene of species in the potamidids. Although, the present study involved one mitochondrial gene, coI, the findings have demonstrated that various genera of potamidids are differentially adapted in the environment, and that coI gene may be differentially expressed and remain to be elucidated.
Shari'ah compliance safety for Malaysia Homestay Muslim Travelers
Authors: Wan Ibrahim Irwan Khazani Bin , Hashim Khairusy Syakirin Has-Yun
Published: April 2023

Muslim travellers are gradually showing interest in travelling to Muslim-friendly countries, specifically Malaysia. Malaysia is one of the few Islamic-viewing countries offering unique accommodation via the local homestay experience. However, the regulations set by the local authority are loosely enforced, especially regarding homestay guests' safety. Interpretations of safety are largely contributed only by each registered local homestay, with only minor guidelines provided by the local authority. It is also unclear whether the safety measures of homestays in Malaysia comply with Shari’ah principles. For example, under the official guidelines, insurance is to be adopted by homestays for the safety of the guest. However, Muslim travellers do not have a choice between Shari’ah and non-Shari’ah policies. When it comes to insurance policies, it is up to the homestay owner to provide Shari’ah-compliant or non-compliant coverage. Therefore, the article aims to explore whether the safety measures of homestays in Malaysia comply with Shari’ah principles and suggests ways to address these issues. Findings indicate that homestays' current level of safety and security in Malaysia is not standard since MOTAC’s guidelines are too general and not curated for each homestay. Suggestions in the form of a flow chart were put forward to address concerns about safety and security and to ensure compliance with Shari’ah principles.
Seeing impact: genres referencing journal articles
Authors: Hicks Diana
Published: April 2023

This paper examines the societal impact of research from the perspective of interconnected genres. Information reaches professionals outside academia through many different types of documents. Those documents often connect with scholarship by referencing academic work, mentioning professors, or publishing articles authored by scholars. Here the pattern of referencing to journal articles is compared across professional genres. Such citation counts make visible societal impacts to the extent that a field engages a genre, and different genres favor different fields. Biomedical sciences are most visible in patent citation counts. News and social media most often reference medicine. Policy documents make heavy use of social science. Ulrich’s indexing of trade journals, magazines, and newspapers suggests social sciences engage heavily with the professions through trade press. However, caution is warranted when using citations to indicate societal impact. Engagement with scholarship occurs not only through referencing but also through authorship and mentions. Not all citations indicate substantive engagement, particularly in social media. Academic literature is but one of many types of sources referenced in professional genres. And scholarship engages with many genres beyond those currently indexed, most notably trade press. Nevertheless, understanding citation patterns across heterogeneous professional genres offeres a promising frontier for information sciences to provide a foundation for the analysis of scholarship’s societal impact.

Research of Network Characteristics of Holographic Traffic
Authors: Makolkina Mariya , Pankov Bogdan
Published: April 2023

One of the most important tasks of the current decade is the mass introduction of telepresence services, including the use of holographic copies of a person, robotic avatars, manipulator devices, as well as the implementation and deployment of their joint associations into groups and communities. Of course, this will not happen all at once, and therefore it is necessary now to start forming an idea of the possibilities for implementing these services, as well as to identify the requirements for the future parameters of data transmission networks. The relevance of the research topic is due to the rapid development of holographic communication technologies and the resulting need to obtain an idea of the required network characteristics of lines, the performance of control, routing, switching and user devices for the widespread implementation of these services. At the first stage of the study, theoretical and experimental works were studied that determine the network parameters to provide the required level of service (QoS). At the second stage, a comparative analysis of network parameters and QoS for real-time voice and video stream transmission was carried out. At the third stage, the expected network parameters and traffic characteristics of holographic network applications are indicated. The next necessary step is the development of a traffic transmission model for holographic copies to experimentally verify the compliance of the proposed parameters.

Published: April 2023

This work is a continuation of the study devoted to mathematical and simulation modeling of methods for searching for locations of gNB base station devices in space according to the criterion of the geometric factor of reducing the positioning accuracy of the user device UE. The task in this formulation is relevant and in demand for ultra-dense networks of the millimeter (30–300 GHz) and submillimeter or terahertz band (0.3–3 THz) of the fifth and subsequent generations, respectively. As a criterion for the spatial placement of the infrastructure of fixed network devices acting as a base station, access point and / or repeater / router, the geometric factor of reducing the positioning accuracy of the DOP (Dilution of Precision) of the user device is used. Based on the algorithmic, methodological and software, formalized in the previous work for searching for gNB placements in space according to the criterion of geometric factors for reducing positioning accuracy in the horizontal plane HDOP (Horizontal DOP), the vertical plane VDOP (Vertical DOP) and by location in the PDOP (Position DOP) space, this study removes the restriction on the fixed placement of UEs in space, and also provides for an increase in the number of gNBs more than five, for which placements are searched.
