Personality Change Through a Digital-Coaching Intervention: Using Measurement Invariance Testing to Distinguish Between Trait Domain, Facet and Nuance Change
Authors: Olaru Gabriel , Stieger Mirjam , Rüegger Dominik , Kowatsch Tobias , Flückiger Christoph , Roberts Brent , Allemand Mathias
Published: July 2022

Recent intervention research has shown that personality traits can be modified through psychological interventions. However, it is unclear whether reported effects represent changes in the trait domain or only some facets or items. Using data (N = 552) from a recent intervention trial (Stieger et al., 2021) the present study examined the effects of a digital-coaching intervention on self- and observer-reported personality facets and items. We focused on participants who wanted to decrease in Negative Emotionality, increase in Conscientiousness or increase in Extraversion. We used measurement invariance testing to examine which level of the trait domain hierarchy changed during the intervention. For the self-reports, we found some heterogeneity in the effects on all three trait domains, but most notably Extraversion and Conscientiousness. Specifically, participants reported to increase moderately to strongly on sociability (Extraversion), productiveness and organization (Conscientiousness), but not on the other facets of these trait domains. Observers generally reported small but non-significant changes, with no scalar invariance violations except for Extraversion. Overall, this suggests considerable heterogeneity in intervention-related personality change that can be overlooked if only focusing on the trait domain level. We discuss the relevance of measurement invariance testing and measurement approaches for personality development and intervention research.
Do green bond issuers suffer from financial constraints?
Authors: Glavas Dejan
Published: July 2022

We find that green bond issuers are more financially constrained. We use three measures of financial constraint, which are the FCP index, the SA index, and the Altman’s Z score. We test the link between green bond issuance and financial constraints using difference in means, regression analyses and a matching procedure. We finally document that these constraints increase after the first green bond issuance.
Advancing Knowledge Pluralism and Cultural Benefits in Ecosystem Services Theory and Application
Authors: Hoelting Kristin , Martinez Doreen E. , Schuster Rudy M. , Gavin Michael C.
Published: July 2022

Improved consideration of the cultural benefits of ecosystem services (ES) requires attention to knowledge pluralism in addition to value pluralism. Theorists have increasingly argued that meaningful inclusion of cultural benefits of ES requires attention to plural values, beyond the individual, instrumental values associated with ecosystems. However, there has been little engagement around the role of knowledge pluralism as a foundational enabling factor for meaningful consideration of plural values. This paper contributes to a conceptual toolkit for implementation of knowledge pluralism in ES theory and application by (re)conceptualizing ES-knowledge as a knowledge system. This can support personal and collective reflexivity around the role of worldviews embedded in our institutions, and illuminate what is at stake when assumptions about human-nature relationship and well-being remain hidden. Further, by locating benefits-knowledge as a core element of the ES-knowledge-system, we can imagine a greater range of possible cultural-benefits-knowledge-forms and improve our ability to comprehend and convey the plural values of cultural benefits of ES, as they arise across cultural contexts.

Published: July 2022

Introduction: Nepal started full lockdown from 24 March to 14 June 2020, followed by partial lockdowns multiple times as a precaution for the prevention of COVID-19 infection. Managing health care services was a major issue during the COVID-19 pandemic for both the patients and health care professionals including services targeting pregnant women in developing countries like Nepal.
Objectives: To study the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on childbirth services attended at a district government hospital and to observe the impact on mode of delivery and maternal-child health.
Methodology: This descriptive cross-sectional study aimed to find out the impact on delivery services during the pandemic compared to pre-pandemic duration that includes one year period from 22nd October 2019 to 22nd March 2020 (before pandemic) and from 23rd March 2020 to 23rd September 2020 (pandemic duration) at Ilam District Hospital. All the information used in this research was taken from Health Management Information System (HMIS) logbook. The permission to use the recorded data was obtained from the hospital. Anonymity and confidentiality of data were maintained and no personal information was used in this research to protect the identity of the patients. The data was collected from the HMIS records of the hospital and was then processed in Microsoft excel.
Results: The result shows despite the lockdown and pandemic the percentage of patients coming to receive delivery services within the hospital increased about 9% which is an exceptionally good result. Emergency CS was found to be decreased by 3%. During the pandemic Hospital stay was significantly reduced for patient’s safety due to COVID-19. However, no adverse impact was observed on the health outcomes of the mother and baby due to a short stay at the hospital.
Conclusion: Despite lockdown and pandemic, the number of parents receiving hospital delivery services increased at Ilam hospital. This was possible due to proper management and pre-plan services according to the government’s COVID-19 protocol to cope with the pandemic and demand of the health services as other nearby hospitals closed their door during the pandemic. In the future, a short stay at the hospital can be continued to cope with a high demand of the services in the maternity department as we found the health of both mother and baby has not been impacted due to short stay in the hospital during the pandemic.

Published: July 2022

Burmese Ferret Badger (Melogale personata) was recorded by camera trapping for the first time in Nepal's Nagarjun forest of Shivapui Nagarjun National Park. According to IUCN, it was expected to inhabit only the eastern part of Nepal but recently the species has been recorded from central and western parts of the country. A globally rarely studied species was only observed during daylight in Nepal but this time it is photographed during the night. A Burmese Ferret Badger was captured for one event with three photographs with PCRI 0.085 in the dense mixed forest of Schima wallichii, Castanopsis indica. A more comprehensive study on its ecology is necessary to implement suitable conservation measures.

The Village Fund as one of the programs that began to be implemented in the era of President Joko Widodo certainly had a major impact on changing the face of the village. Village funds sourced from the State Revenue and Expenditure Budget are one of the sources of village income used for village infrastructure development and village community empowerment in an effort to realize village progress and community welfare. The management of the Village Fund, starting from the planning, implementation to accountability reporting stages, of course, must be guided by the provisions of the applicable laws and regulations, as an effort to realize a clean, transparent and accountable Village Fund management. In line with this, of course, it takes human resources from the village government (village heads and village officials) who are qualified, capable and capable in carrying out their respective duties and responsibilities. The problem raised in this research is the relationship between the capability of the village government and the successful management of a clean, transparent and accountable Village Fund. The conclusion of this research is that the capability of the village government is directly proportional to the success of the village concerned in realizing a clean, transparent and accountable management of the Village Fund.

This study also aims to describe a model of the electoral justice system that can be developed in the upcoming Pemilihan Kepala Desa to resolve law enforcement issues in the Pemilihan Kepala Desa, one of which is through the application of a restorative justice model. This study uses empirical legal research methods with primary and secondary data sources. Primary data sources were obtained from the results of research in the field through an interview process with 20 key informants in the implementation of the Pemilihan Kepala Desa in Sleman Regency in 2021 spread over 9 (nine) villages. The secondary data sources used consist of primary legal materials and secondary legal materials obtained through literature study. The data analysis technique is qualitative data analysis through statutory and conceptual approaches. The results showed that the Pemilihan Kepala Desa in Sleman Regency in particular and Indonesia, in general, had not been held honestly and fairly. It is necessary to reorganize the Pemilihan Kepala Desa rules through an electoral justice system model approach, especially for normative design indicators and performance indicators of the Pemilihan Kepala Desa system. The application of restorative justice can strengthen efforts to enforce the Pemilihan Kepala Desa law in the future.
Strategi Amerika Serikat dalam Membendung Kebangkitan Tiongkok di Asia Pasifik melalui Aliansi Pertahanan Quadrilateral Periode 2017-2020

Published: July 2022

This paper aims to find out the strategic role of the US Quadrilateral Security Alliance in reducing China's threats in the Asia Pacific during 2017-2020. The method used in this research is qualitative, with descriptive-analytical technique. This technique aims to provide a holistic understanding and description of a symptom or phenomenon. The findings of this study show that the rise of China in the economic and military sectors, as well as China's aggressiveness in expanding its territories, threatens the US hegemony in the Asia Pacific. Thus, to maintain its status quo, the US formed a Quad Alliance with Australia, Japan and India in 2007. However, this alliance was inactive since 2008 and reactivated in 2017 by President Donald Trump. The Quad Alliance is quite intense in conducting military expeditions in the Indian-Pacific Ocean. Based on the Balance of Threat theory by Stephen Walt (1985), the Quad Alliance is the US "Rebalancing Strategy" against China in the Asia Pacific, which aims to eliminate 4 main sources of threats, namely China's aggregate power, China's geographical proximity to the US alliance, China's military capabilities, and China's ambitions in the region. The dynamics of the Sino-US contestation are driven by the basic motive of Neorealism, that is protecting the national interests of the two countries, whether political, economic, or domination/influence.

The method used in this study is qualitative with several supporting techniques such as library study techniques, listen, and record. The results of this study showed that the Tumbler Starbucks City Series can be said to "successfully" display a form of local wisdom such as highlighted elements of dance culture, traditions, and landmarks. Nonetheless, the process in building city branding has not been able to be a strong parameter in an effort to increase tourists. There are several problems that can be felt in the application of city branding in the cover tumbler Starbucks City Series. First, the branding implications contained on this tumbler cover have some contradictions between marketing goals and communication goals. Second, the city image built on a Starbucks City Series tumbler is limited to traditional landmarks and dance. Third, the relatively expensive price of tumblers is also a major drawback to the city branding process in Starbucks tumblers.
Growth and Survival of Black-lip Pearl Oyster Pinctada margaritifera (Linnaeus, 1758) in Bamboo and Metal-framed Pocket Net Baskets Subjected to Cleaning and Without Cleaning Conditions

Published: July 2022

The farming of black-lip pearl oyster Pinctada margaritifera (Linnaeus, 1758) has been a viable industry for small and large-scale farmers in the South Pacific, but not in the Philippines, where it is monopolized by large-scale farms primarily based on the gold-lip pearl oyster Pinctada maxima. To promote the industry among small-scale players, we simplified the culture method by using bamboo slats as frame materials and compared them to the common material used in pearl oyster culture, metal rods. A total of 400 individuals seven-month-old hatchery-produced P. margaritifera were used as experimental animals, distributed in the following treatments with five replications: T1 (metal-framed pocket net basket with monthly cleaning), T2 (metal-framed pocket net basket without monthly cleaning), T3 (bamboo-framed pocket net basket with monthly cleaning), and T4 (bamboo-framed pocket net basket without monthly cleaning). Growth was fast in the first four months and slowed down after that. Two-way analysis of variance found no significant differences between the average anteroposterior shell (APS) length increments of pearl oysters between two types of frame, and between two cleaning conditions. Survival rates did not significantly differ between types of basket frame, and between cleaning conditions. Parameters of the “Typical” von Bertalanffy growth model (L∞ = 118.41 mm, K = 1.03 year-1, and t0 = 0.12) suggested that oyster would take about 23.16 months to reach 100 mm APS length, a size suitable for nucleus implantation. The life span of bamboo slats as basket frame was half of the metal frame, and the absence of cleaning has reduced the operational cost by up to 82.08%.
Potentiometry for Cyanide Detection Applied to Fisheries Regulation
Authors: Cudia Paul Bryan Karlo , Romero Marc Lawrence
Published: July 2022

Illegal cyanide fishing is practiced by some fishers to capture agile and otherwise inaccessible reef fishes easily. Economic incentives had prevented discontinuation of the practice despite regulations present. Aside from the well-known toxicity of cyanide, it is a concern whether the fish is for ornamental purposes or human consumption that cyanide is being used because of the environmental damage it can cause by killing off non-target species. Currently, the cyanide content of fish is determined using an ion-selective electrode (ISE), with distillation as the mode of extraction of cyanide from tissues. This paper reports a modification of ASTM Method 500-CN-E, a method originally used to test for cyanide content in the wastewater. This paper outlines the process of determining the applicability of the method modification for analysis of fish tissue samples, in which no standard method was designed specifically for the matrix mentioned above. Although percent recoveries for cyanide at 0.05-10 mg/L range in spiked distilled water matrices are in line with the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) results (90-105%), cyanide recoveries in spiked fish tissue matrices at the same concentration range are appreciably lower (~60-80%). For regulatory purposes, it serves as a temporarily acceptable method to detect cyanide-laden fish until a suitable method can be validated on international standards. However, to be accepted as a standard method, additional modifications may be needed or proven in inter-laboratory tests that the recovery of cyanide in fish is consistently low.

Fish and other fishery products are one of the important food sources in fulfilling human nutritional needs. Fish contains nutrients that are good for the body and are easily digested by the body. Fish is a source of animal protein that comes from the water. Fish is rich in nutritional content, such as protein, fatty acids, vitamins and minerals. Fish is a source of long chain fatty acids, such as omega-3. Omega-3 fatty acids from marine and fresh fish are higher than those from land and vegetable animals. The potential for fish availability is more than other fishery products, so that to meet the nutritional needs of the body can be done by consuming fish as needed. Public knowledge about the importance of nutritional content in fish for health is still low, so there is a need for knowledge about the nutritional content of fish and their health benefits. This review explains the nutritional content of seawater and freshwater fish and its benefits for health.

Beruwas Laut fruit (Scaevolla taccada) comes from the beach Tanjung Siambang, Dompak, Bukit Bestari, Tanjungpinang City, Kepulauan Riau. This study aims to determine the level of toxicity and active compounds in Beruwas Laut fruit. Fruit extraction is carried out in two ways, namely crude extraction and pure water extraction without using solvents. Each extract was tested for its toxicity against shrimp larvae Arthemia salina Leach. The mortality of A. salina larvae was analyzed using Microsoft Excel probit analysis to determine the LC50 value of each fruit extract. The result showed that the toxicity test results of the crude extract of Beruwas Laut fruit 1908,542 ppm and the extract of pure Beruwas Laut was 1654,263 ppm. The results of the phytochemical test showed that the crude extract and pure water extract contained only the preductive sugar.
Wolność według Hannibala. Historiograficzna wizja polityki kartagińskiej wobec miast Italii (218–210 p.n.e.)
Authors: Wolny Miron
Published: July 2022

Prezentowany tekst stanowi próbę rekonstrukcji mechanizmu kreowania przez Kartagińczyków hellenistycznej propagandy wolnościowej w miastach Italii w latach 218-210 p.n.e., czyli wtedy, kiedy odniesienie przez Kartagińczyków zwycięstwa nad Rzymem było jeszcze możliwe. Ponieważ źródła antyczne upatrywały sukcesu Hannibala w zerwaniu przyjaźni (amicitia) sprzymierzeńców z Rzymem, wykreowany obraz działań kartagińskich przyporządkowany został tej tezie. Artykuł stanowi zatem próbę odpowiedzi na pytanie o efektywność wykorzystania propagandowego sloganu wolności (ἐλευθερία) wobec miast Italii. W odniesieniu do rozgrywających się tam wydarzeń lat 218-210 p.n.e. autor dochodzi do wniosku, że w istocie w wyniku szeregu działań Hannibala (w tym również propagandy wolnościowej) nastąpiło nadwątlenie spoistości federacji Italskiej. Metody przy pomocy których Kartagińczyk lansował propagandę wolnościową w dużej mierze zależały od zastanych okoliczności i skorelowane były z obserwacją dynamiki sytuacji w Italii. Aktywność kartagińskiego dowódcy opierała się na ekonomicznym podejściu do gospodarowania własnym potencjałem militarnym, dlatego działania propagandowe oparte o ἐλευθερία wychodziły naprzeciw tym zamierzeniom. Kiedy metody te stawały się zawodne, działający w Italii Kartagińczycy coraz częściej uciekali się do osobliwego kreowania zapotrzebowania na wolność przy pomocy strachu.
Kościół ewangelicki i ludność mazurska na Działdowszczyźnie w sprawozdaniach księdza Ewalda Lodwicha-Ledwy z lat 1945–1946
Authors: Jasiński Grzegorz

W artykule przedstawiono opis stosunków wyznaniowych i politycznych w powiecie działdowskim w latach 1945 i 1946, zawartych w sprawozdaniach duchownego Kościoła Ewangelicko-Augsburskiego Ewalda Lodwicha-Ledwy. Należący do Polski powiat działdowski został w 1939 roku włączony w granice III Rzeszy. Na relacjonowaną w sprawozdaniach sytuację rzutował fakt przyjęcia przez znaczną część mieszkańców powiatu niemieckich list narodowościowych. W latach 1945 i 1946 ogół ludności ewangelickiej traktowany był przez władze i nowoprzybyłą ludność polską jako Niemcy. Ewangelików poddano surowym represjom. Niektóre z kościołów ewangelickich zostały zabrane przez ludność katolicką. Działalność ks. Ewalda Lodwicha-Ledwy w obronie ewangelików wywołała wrogie nastawienie wobec niego władz politycznych i części ludności polsko-katolickiej.

Dispersion analysis of longitudinal deformation pulses in minimum mass ropes of cranes load lifting mechanisms (which satisfy the conditions of equal strength in each specific cross section) is carried out in the article. The phase and group waveform velocities occurring in the ropes of this type are determined. The impulse dispersion by the method of lifting the load "with the pickup"/"from the base" ("from the ground") was investigated using the stationary phase method. Such methods are used in this work as: 1) classic methods of mathematical physics; 2) complex Fourier transform over time; 3) stationary phase method for the calculation of the integral which characterizes the deformations in the remote field during its asymptotic schedule. It is shown that the asymptotic schedule reduces the analysis of stress and deformation wave fields arising in the rope to the using of the Airy function with a complex argument. The sign of this argument is determined by the sign of the third derivative of the frequency by the wave vector for mentioned above fields near stationary points of the group velocity of wave formations (hear, in accordance, the second derivative is equal to zero). It is substantiated that Airy function is responsible for reproducing the nature of perturbations before and after the wave front moving inside the rope system. The phase velocity with which the constant phase plane of the exponential multiplier is carried in the rope is determined. This multiplier the spatial-temporal dependence of the emerging waveform describes. Near the pulse front (load/deformation of the rope), its duration increases, but the amplitude decreases in proportion to the cubic root of the distance to the observation point. The formula is established, according to which the asymptotic of this problem solution should be built, in the case of the curve extreme of waveform propagation group velocity in the rope. A similar approach gives the possibility to explore the main patterns of no stationary wave fields generated in the ropes of cranes load lifting mechanisms. The results obtained in the work can be used for establishing cranes rope systems loads and deformations quantities estimates under the condition of their transience. Such loads/deformations usually cause of the above systems overstrain when lifting or lowering loads with different types cranes (particularly, bridge, gantry, portal), which work in operation modes (real operation mode) and can lead to emergencies (for example, breaks in rope systems).

At present, there is a tendency in the world to replace steel and cast iron with composite materials with high chemical resistance and durability, which primarily include fiberglass, which has a set of high performance properties. However, currently the requirements for composites have increased, especially in terms of their heat and chemical resistance, resistance to microorganisms, groundwater and wastewater. Composites based on basalt fibers are significantly superior to traditional materials and alloys in their mechanical and physicochemical properties. They have corrosion resistance, chemical inertness, low thermal conductivity, high specific mechanical properties, low specific gravity. Basalt-based products have a number of advantages: high strength, relatively low weight, reliability in operation over a wide range of temperatures, not prone to corrosion and have high chemical resistance. Production and use of basalt fiber materials, composites and products from them are promising and economically feasible. Taking into account the physical- chemical properties of basalt fibers, the use of basalt elements from them as lining of sewer networks and structures is a promising method of their restoration. However, the durability of this depends primarily on the adhesion of basalt elements with cement-sand mortar. The article analyzes the mineral resource base of rocks as a one-component raw material for the manufacture of basalt fiber materials and composites based on them. The analysis of the properties of basalt continuous fibers in comparison with glass fibers of type E and S, carbon and aramid fibers is carried out. The results of the experimental study of the adhesion of basalt elements and cement-sand mortar are presented. The results of the research allow the use of basalt materials to perform repair and restoration work on sewers and structures.
