PENGRUWATAN DALAM KALATATTWA
Authors: Dwijayanthi Ni Made Ari
Published: August 2022

The Balinese tradition of meruwat is equated by restoring the state of objects, living things, or human beings. In addition to restore them, it means being free from all dirt, fatigue, or the like. Sometimes pengruwatan is believed to be a definition to get a better life, of course, through rituals that are carried out and believed in. Kalatattwa contains a narration that is narrated from the birth of Bhatara Kala to the gift he received from Lord Shiva. Wayang Sapuh Leger became a manifestation of religious ceremonies (rites) to emphasize the ritual. Palmer's hermeneutic theory is used to interpret the Kalatattwa, which emphasizes the rites of healing and Sapuh Leger.

TECHNOLOGY-SUPPORTED PEER FEEDBACK: A LITERATURE REVIEW
Authors: Priyantin Tina
Published: August 2022

The technology advance in language learning has become a trend in research including the implementation of peer feedback. This study aims to explore the development of technology-supported peer feedback by reviewing 10 studies published between 2016 and 2020. The results found that all studies implemented peer feedback in higher education. Regarding the tools and system, most studies conducted asynchronous learning mode in giving and receiving feedback and the use of social media reached the highest percentage. Across most studies, individual peer feedback was adopted, but anonymity was not clearly mentioned. One-round feedback was mostly implemented and there were less follow-up revised tasks. Furthermore, most studies assigned students to give corrective and structured feedback. Of all studies, using technology in peer-feedback activities could give more opportunities for students to get engaged and motivated, but not significantly improve the students’ performance, language and proficiency skills. For future research, it is suggested that researchers develop how to integrate effective technology tools into peer feedback in terms of building self-regulated learning as well as reaching learning values.

Authors: Lowe Patricia A.
Published: August 2022

The present study was conducted using latent profile analysis to determine whether homogeneous test anxiety groups could be identified among 625 undergraduates and to determine whether gender, self-critical perfectionism, and rigid perfectionism were significant predictors of class membership in the identified test anxiety groups. The students completed two multidimensional instruments, measures of test anxiety and perfectionism, online. Results of the latent profile analysis identified a test anxiety profile with three homogeneous groups as the best model. The three homogeneous groups were labeled low, medium, and high. Moreover, gender, self-critical perfectionism, and rigid perfectionism were found to predict class membership differentially in the three homogeneous groups. Implications of the results are discussed in relation to prevention and intervention in the fields of perfectionism and test anxiety.

This study looks at how a cement manufacturing company's financial features affect the systemic risk or beta. We collected data regarding the financial performance of all the publicly traded cement manufacturing companies for a six-year period (from 2016 to 2021) to identify the determinants of systematic risk or beta. We used linear regression with panel corrected standard error model. The study evaluated seven performance measures, profitability (Return on Asset), solvency (Equity Ratio), inventory efficiency (Inventory Turnover), asset efficiency (Asset Turnover), liquidity (Cash Ratio), company’s growth (Earnings before Interest and Tax growth) and company’s cash generation capability (Operating Cash Flow to Sales) to see whether these factors had any statistically significant relationship with systematic risk or beta. The study found that solvency, asset efficiency, liquidity are statistically significant determinants of beta at five percent significance level. The Inventory Turnover is statistically significant determinant of beta at ten percent significance level. None of the other variables had any statistically significant relationship with beta.

One of the most prevalent and traditional uses of statistics in hydrology is flood frequency analysis. The flood can occur practically everywhere and is considered the leading cause of natural disaster death worldwide. This study aims to apply the flood frequency analysis of the Kelantan streamflow site to identify the optimal distribution that best fits the flood frequency data from the goodness-of-fit test (GOF). Five distributions were applied in this study; namely lognormal (LG), generalized extreme value (GEV), generalized Pareto (GP), log-Pearson three (L3) and generalized logistic (GL) distribution. to obtain the parameter estimates. The distribution performance evaluation is then performed utilizing the GOF and efficiency evaluations. The results indicate that the generalized GP distribution is the best possible function for determining the annual peak flow at the Kelantan streamflow site.

Published: August 2022

The effect of mechanical exclusion devices and its number in combination viz. probe trap (A; 1-3), two-in-one trap with 3 mm perforations (B; 1-5) and two-in-one trap with 2 mm perforations (C; 1-3) were investigated to test the efficiency of these traps for trapping larvae and adults of khapra beetle Trogoderma granarium Everts. Colour change and weight loss (%) happening in wheat stored in bins of 50 kg capacity for six months were used as the criteria. The experiments were planned using a three-factor-three-level Box and Behnken design of response surface methodology and were optimized for maximum trapping, with minimum change in colour and weight loss. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed significantly (p<0.05) higher effects of quantity (number) of two in one trap with 3 mm perforations followed by two in one trap with 2 mm perforation on total trapping efficiency. Colour change and weight loss in stored wheat exhibited a negative relationship with trap capture. Among the process parameters studied, the probe trap and its number in experimental combination demonstrated a significantly lower effect on the response variables. The optimal combinations of mechanical exclusion process parameters obtained by numerical optimization technique for trapping larvae and adults were 3:4:3 and 2:5:3 (probe trap: two in one model trap 3 mm: two in one model trap 2 mm) with desirability of 0.61 and 0.63, respectively.

Authors: Madhumita Sengupta  , Nilza Angmo  , Neha Vimal  , R K Seth
Published: August 2022

In this study, the effect of ionizing radiation was studied on the pheromone biosynthesis activating neuropeptide (PBAN) gene expression in female moths of a noctuid pest Spodoptera litura (F.), that would trigger pheromone production and its release needed for calling behaviour. The PBAN gene expression in the radiosterilized female moths (at 130 Gy) showed a decline with respect to control (unirradiated moths), and PBAN expression was drastically reduced at higher dose, 200 Gy. The photosensitivity and diel rhythm of PBAN gene expression, indicating higher expression during peak hours of scotophase and lowest expression during photophase was maintained at 130Gy, which deemed this gamma dose a suitable sterilizing dose for female moths which seemed to retain reproductive competence. This study might support the radiosterilized female moths for their combined release with substerilized males, using 130Gy to effectively operate the F1 sterility technique proposed to control S. litura

Published: August 2022

In this study various factors, viz., male irradiation, its mating status and post mating interval were studied on the remating propensity, insemination quality and reproductive behaviour of a noctuid pest Spodoptera litura (F.) that may govern the efficacy of radiation mediated inherited sterility (IS) technique proposed to control this pest. The male irradiation (substerilizing 130 Gy and sterilizing 250 Gy) affected the copulation duration, mating success and sperm transfer during mating. Multiple matings of male significantly depleted the sperm in fully sterile male followed by substerile male than control. During remating with virgin female, the reproductive performance of mated irradiated male, was more affected at 24 hr than at 48 hr inter mating interval, which might be due to associated physiological impact on mating behaviour and insemination quality. This study might be crucial in simulation modelling and optimization of successful implementation of IS programme.
Potential Invasive Termites in India and Importance of Integrative Taxonomy
Authors: C. M. Kalleshwaraswamy
Published: August 2022

Termites are ubiquitously abundant in the tropics and subtropics. Globally 28 species are considered invasive among the 2937 species in nine families known. Among the invasive species, most are considered nuisance organisms to humans in urban areas, and a few have invaded natural forests. Generally, the invasive termites share three qualities: (i) they eat wood, (ii) make nests in wood, and (iii) they quickly generate secondary reproductives. These qualities are the most common in the Kalotermitidae and Rhinotermitidae (Blattodea: Isoptera), which enhance their opportunities for producing viable and reproductively capable individuals. Species of the Termitidae cannot produce secondary reproductives, and this is attributed as a reason for their lack of invasiveness. The 28 species recognized as strongly invasive have the potential to widen their geographical range from their present distribution locations. According to available data, 10 out of the 17 recognized invasive species have expanded their area of occurrence since 1969. Among the 28, three are known in India, although their exact distribution data in the Indian subcontinent, the damage they inflict, and consequent economic loss are yet to be worked out in detail. Climate change, intensifying urbanization, and globalization, acting either individually or in combination, are likely to exacerbate ecological and economic effects. Strict quarantine measures and appropriate treatment of every wood material imported are imperative. Efforts have been made to list the potential invasive termites in India based on imported-wood material. Approximately 70 species reported in the GenBank database for about 300 species known from India, emphasizing a dire need for accurate morphological and molecular determinations. Gene sequences of some of the Indian termite species submitted are incorrectly identified, as their presence and distribution in India is doubtful. Therefore, in this article, I discuss the importance of the combined and efficient use of morphological and molecular taxonomy in determining termites in India.

This study investigated the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on small businesses, poor individuals and vulnerable households who constitute the majority of customers of microfinance banks (MFBs) in Nigeria. A client survey was conducted by telephone and face to face with a representative sample of clients of MFBs in South West Nigeria for the period from 2019 to 2021. A structured questionnaire, interviews, focus group discussions and participant observation were used to generate the data, while the descriptive statistical analytical method was used to analyze and present the findings. The study reveals that the Covid-19 pandemic and the government-mandated lockdown to curtail the spread have dealt a heavy blow to the incomes of businesses and households of MFB clients in Nigeria. The findings provide practical insights for the Nigerian government and suggests a review of the microfinance scheme to improve its effectiveness.

Published: August 2022

The worldwide COVID-19 pandemic has changed the norms of the educational systems worldwide, including English language learning. The move from face-to-face classes to online classes has influenced English language learning. The study intends to explore the Online EFL Learning Experience in Saudi Universities during COVID19. It investigates how the online environment adopted by the universities in KSA sustains EFL online classes. The study employed the quantitative research method, as a questionnaire-based survey was conducted to collect data. The analysis method was the descriptive statistical analysis. The target population for this study were the students in the undergraduate programs. The findings revealed several positive and practical aspects of the online university environment (the Blackboard) in helping the participants learn English skills. However, despite exuding the efficiency in online teaching, some technical issues were reported, such as losing signal during sessions, communicating with the technical service center, interruption of online sessions, and delay in online texting. The study recommends to improve teachers’’ technical skills and adoption of teaching style suitable to the online environment, in order to enhance their performance and bring innovation in their interaction with students for a more sustainable synchronous teaching sessions.

Street Cop Culture and the Aging Police Force: Understanding the Interplay between Demographic Change, Organizational Culture, Leadership and Police Officers’ Performance

The purpose of the present study is to explore the relationship between aging, organizational culture, leadership and police officers’ performance, and in particular to examine the difficulties in handling age-related physical limitations in police forces. We investigate this topic empirically on the basis of quantitative and qualitative data using the example of a German police organization. Our results indicate that organizational culture plays a fundamental role in understanding the effects of an aging workforce. Police officers tend to suppress, ignore or deny their age-related physical deficits, which they perceive as incompatible with their cultural self-conception as police officers. Therefore, measures to cope with the challenges of demographic change cannot be successfully implemented in police organizations unless they explicitly take account of the organizational culture of the police.

Modelling intelligence-led policing to identify its potential

Intelligence-led policing is a concept of policing that has been applied throughout the world. Despite some encouraging reports, the effect of intelligence-led policing is largely unknown. This paper presents a method with which it is possible to identify intelligence-led policing’s potential to increase the effectiveness of policing. The method is based on modelling with system dynamics and takes into account the complexities of intelligence-led policing. For evaluation purposes, this method has been applied using a case study in the Netherlands. The case study shows that collaboratively constructing the system dynamics model provides a more structured insight into the effects of intelligence-led policing. With system dynamics it is possible to support the ‘good stories’ of intelligence-led policing with argumentation explaining the mechanisms in which intelligence-led policing potentially improves effectiveness.

Women as leaders in policing: A path forward

As a result of changing gender dynamics in leadership, a substantial body of literature has been dedicated to understanding differences between leadership styles and effectiveness for men and women, often finding differences between the two groups. Despite this growing body of research, there is still a substantial gap in the leadership and policing literature, specifically regarding women as leaders in policing. This paper provides an overview of the gender leadership literature both in and out of policing, as well as a succinct review of research pertaining to women as leaders in policing. Recommendations for future research are drawn from existing literature in a call for a greater understanding of the role of gender in leadership in policing.

Guardian of Democracy? Theoretical aspects of police roles and functions in democracy

In the research on democracy and democratization, there is a lack of systematic thought on the relationship between police and democracy. In this paper I argue that it is possible to go beyond empirical and historical research into police roles and functions in real-life political systems, in order to formulate a theoretical framework that outlines the specific relationships between police and democracy. Because the functions of police in democracies are clearly different from those existing under authoritarian and totalitarian regimes, it makes sense to examine these interrelationships more closely. Although the police is sociologically speaking a nonaligned institution, since it can serve any regime and is therefore neither intrinsically democratic nor intrinsically authoritarian or totalitarian, there nonetheless exists a conceptual, historical and systematic connection between police and democracy

Pluralisation of Local Policing in Germany: Security Between the State’s Monopoly of Force and the Market

The article starts with an overview of the role of the police within the German political system and sketches recent developments and tendencies towards structures and processes of plural policing. Plural policing in this context is understood in the sense of ‘the expanding role of non-police service providers in policing, and the variety of different public, private and voluntary bodies now engaged in the activity’ (Wakefield, 2009, 227), with a special focus on the local level. In addition, the most prominent stakeholders in plural policing are introduced, followed by a description of the current forms and patterns between these stakeholders and the police. After analysing some relevant chances and obstacles of plural policing, the author focuses on local safety and security governance before ending with considerations upon plural policing and the changing role of the state.

The Significance of PoliceCitizen Contacts for Public Trust in the Police in the Netherlands

This article explores the development of citizens’ trust in the police in the Netherlands and the relevance of police-citizen contact for trust in the police drawing data from the Dutch Integral Safety Monitor (IVm). This is a huge but underutilized dataset. The findings show that the police in the Netherlands are highly trusted by Dutch citizens. However, their experience with police-citizen contact play an important role in citizens’ trust. The findings of this research indicate not only the relevance of the perspective of procedural justice, but an instrumental and ‘proximity’ perspective as well. The article ends with an assessment of the relative strengths and weaknesses of the data in the IVm.

Crafting the domain of policing and public health in Amsterdam

Policing and public health are intimately related in practice but an explicit conceptual framework is missing. The processes of so-called glocalization and of organizations (and issues) becoming increasingly ‘boundary-less’ – especially in the city – explain part of the growing importance of the intersection of policing and public health. But these processes do not provide a conceptual frame, nor does this perspective lead to the much needed practical knowledge on how to craft this emerging domain. This contribution will use the current strategic challenges for the police in the Dutch capital city of Amsterdam as an illustration of the character and importance of the relations between policing and public health. Many issues require close cooperation between the police and public health organizations. Although much has been accomplished there is still a lot left to be desired. Extrapolation of present-day developments suggests that existing modes of cooperation might not be sufficient and that we need to fundamentally rethink the relation between policing and public health. This article concludes with a tentative agenda for explorative research.

Instrumental and affective influences on public trust and police legitimacy in Spain

Two approaches to the nature and sources of public trust and police legitimacy can be distinguished: the instrumental and the affective. On the first account, people trust in police when they judge it effective in enforcing the law and fighting crime; and they hold police more legitimate when they believe these things to be true. On the second account, trust and legitimacy are bound up with relational concerns about the quality of police behavior, and expressive factors relating to the perceived ability of communities and police to maintain and reproduce social cohesion and order. Studies in Anglophone contexts tend to conclude that this ‘affective’ account provides greater explanatory power. This paper explores these ideas in a new context. Using data from a nationwide survey conducted in Spain we examine: (a) the relative strength of instrumental or affective predictors of trust; and (b) whether trust in police fairness is a more or less important predictor of legitimacy than trust in police effectiveness. Adding to the weight of international evidence concerning the ways people think about and experience policing, evidence for the primacy of the affective account is presented.
