Cerámica y arte contemporáneo. Emergencia de prácticas milenarias en el siglo XXI
Authors: Tarela Mariel
Published: June 2019

En los últimos años, el arte cerámico contemporáneo se hace presente y, de esta manera, habilita otras formas de percepción y se apropia de ámbitos ajenos a él, con anterioridad a la segunda mitad del siglo XX. Focalizamos en las transformaciones contextuales del arte contemporáneo que posibilitan emergencias y desplazamientos de las prácticas artísticas de cerámica en la actualidad. Obras de cinco artistas contemporáneos son muestras de un presente complejo configurado a partir de visibilidades e invisibilidades.

Implementación y análisis del método de aula invertida: un estudio de caso en Bachillerato
Authors: Herrera Sierra Guillermo , Prendes Espinosa Mª Paz
Published: June 2019

Las necesidades de la Sociedad del Conocimiento nos llevan a que los estudiantes deban ser formados bajo perspectivas y planteamientos diferentes a como han sido formados los alumnos de generaciones anteriores. Los docentes se han enfrentado a la necesidad de realizar un replanteamiento metodológico fomentando frente a la enseñanza tradicional la incorporación en las aulas de metodologías activas. Entre estas alternativas metodológicas se encuentra el aula invertida (flipped classroom) que modifica el orden metodológico tradicional, se traslada fuera del aula la exposición de contenidos y el tiempo en el aula se dedica a las “tareas”.En este artículo se presentan los resultados de una experiencia de innovación educativa basada en la metodología del aula invertida en la materia de Economía con alumnado de primero de Bachillerato.Se diseñó e implementó la unidad didáctica “El dinero y la política monetaria” tras cuya finalización se recogieron las opiniones del alumnado a través de un cuestionario que junto con la observación del docente en el aula muestran una opinión positiva del alumnado acerca de la metodología, especialmente en cuanto a la atención que reciben del profesor frente a las clases impartidas con metodologías tradicionales.

Authors: Contreras García José Miguel , Ruiz Karen , Ruz Ángel Felipe , Molina Portillo Elena
Published: June 2019

El interés mostrado en los últimos años por aunar la enseñanza de las matemáticas y las nuevas tecnologías por parte de los organismos oficiales nos ha llevado a plantearnos la necesidad de evaluar los recursos virtuales disponibles para la enseñanza de la probabilidad en educación primaria. La enseñanza de la probabilidad, dado su carácter experimental, especialmente en edades tempranas, necesita de metodologías basadas en el uso de recursos que muestren el sentido de la aleatoriedad y el cálculo de probabilidades.  Estas herramientas, profundizan en el significado de los conceptos, muestran el comportamiento de los procedimientos y propiedades, y ayudan a los estudiantes a superar sus dificultades, principalmente en la identificación de los sesgos probabilísticos. En este trabajo proponemos un catálogo de recursos útiles, convenientemente analizados a partir de los elementos del Enfoque Ontosemiótico de la Instrucción Matemática, que pueden ser utilizados como complemento a la enseñanza formal del tema de probabilidad.
FATORES DETERMINANTES DA CONFORMIDADE DOS RELATÓRIOS INTEGRADOS EM RELAÇÃO ÀS DIRETRIZES DIVULGADAS PELO INTERNATIONAL INTEGRATED REPORTING COUNCIL
Authors: Rizzi Denise Isabel , Mazzioni Sady , Dias de Moura Geovanne , Oro Ieda Margarete
Published: June 2019

A crescente preocupação com a questão socioambiental mobiliza diversas iniciativas governamentais e não governamentais com o objetivo de debater e propor soluções. O Relatório Integrado, introduzido pelo International Integrated Reporting Coucil, é uma destas medidas que tem como propósito reunir informações relevantes sobre estratégia, governança, desempenho e perspectivas de uma empresa, de modo a refletir o contexto comercial, social e ambiental nos quais opera, auxiliando os gestores em suas decisões. Nesta perspectiva, o estudo tem por objetivo analisar os fatores determinantes da conformidade dos relatórios integrados em relação às diretrizes divulgadas pelo International Integrated Reporting Council, em empresas brasileiras de capital aberto. Para tanto, realizou-se pesquisa quantitativa, de caráter descritivo e documental quanto aos procedimentos de coleta dos dados. A amostra investigada considerou 254 empresas constantes da listagem “relate ou explique” da BM&FBovespa 2015 e a lista de verificações incluiu trinta e três itens distribuídos em sete dimensões.  Os resultados permitiram constatar que os principais fatores que influenciam o nível de conformidade das informações divulgadas pelas empresas investigadas, em relação ao proposto, são o retorno sobre os ativos, o tamanho da empresa, o crescimento das vendas, a relação market-to-book e a presença no índice de sustentabilidade empresarial. Evidencia-se um grande interesse por parte das companhias em divulgar informações de sustentabilidade, essencialmente, aquelas que têm maior destaque e exposição na sociedade.

Authors: Ferreira Ademir Antonio , Chiareto Joice , Mascena Keysa Manuela Cunha de
Published: June 2019

TThis study aimed to identify the sustainability practices of companies in the Brazilian sugarcane industry participating in the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM). We identified sustainability practices in the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) reports, in the social and environmental dimensions, and we investigated the association with the financial performance. We developed a content analysis of the reports disclosed by 18 groups of companies, controllers of 48 plants of Brazilian sugarcane industry participating in the CDM. The results indicated that the most indicators reported by the plants refer to initiatives and strategies for protection and preservation of the environment. As for the actions developed by the plants with the intention of preservation and environmental protection, we found 25 different actions. The most commonly performed practices are related to the reduction of cane burning and CO2 emissions; preservation or restoration of the Permanent Preservation Areas (PPAs) and Private Reserve of the Natural Heritage (PRNH) or seedlings cultivation; and electricity generation. We found out, through cluster analysis, that companies that reported more indicators in the social and environmental dimensions also have higher volume of net sales. This study contributes by presenting a performance analysis in sustainability of mills groups finding that there is still opportunity for greater disclosure of the mills sustainability performance, through the disclosure of more comprehensive reports for a more effective communication with stakeholders. This study also contributes to the literature deepening the analysis of a specific context and understanding the different levels of sustainability disclosure.
PENGEMBANGAN KLASTER TANAMAN CABAI DI KABUPATEN AGAM PROVINSI SUMATERA BARAT
Authors: Ekaputra Eri Gas , Arlius Feri , Chatib Omil Charmyn , Irsyad Fadli
Published: June 2019

Cabai merupakan salah satu komoditas hortikultura yang paling diminati di masyarakat seperti halnya bawang merah, dan bawang putih. Hal ini dikarenakan komoditas tersebut dibutuhkan disetiap lapisan masyarakat, terutama di Provinsi Sumatera Barat.  Permintaan terhadap cabai biasanya akan semakin tinggi menjelang hari istimewa seperti lebaran, tahun baru, dan hari besar nasional. Tingginya permintaan tersebut akan menyebabkan kenaikan harga cabai di pasaran, diperparah dengan musim hujan dan cuaca ekstrim, hal ini akan menyebabkan produksi cabai menjadi terhambat hingga gagal panen pastinya akan terjadi kenaikan harga yang cukup signifikan. Tantangan yang dihadapi dalam pengembangan klaster nasional cabai tersebut adalah perlu adanya dukungan teknologi pertanian serta upaya penumbuhan kelembagaan sehingga diperlukan pendampingan yang intensif. Kepentingan masing-masing petani yang beragam dapat menjadi tantangan sekaligus peluang dalam penyadaran petani untuk berkelompok. Sehingga perlakuan dominasi pengumpul cabe dengan melakukan kegiatan spekulatif menjual cabai di suatu wilayah dengan harga yang tinggi mengakibatkan adanya supply shock yang pada akhirnya dapat memicu inflasi pada wilayah sentra cabai. Perubahan iklim wilayah yang terjadi pada tingkat probabilitas yang bervariasi berkisar antara 58 % - 100 %. Parameter iklim yang mengalami tren signifikan yaitu; kecepatan angin kumulatif dan maksimum dengan tren negatif pada probabilitas 100%, kelembaban relatif rata-rata dan minimum dengan tren positif pada probabilitas sebesar 100 %, dan Evaporasi dengan tren positif pada probabilitas rata-rata 95 %. Berdasarkan perhitungan neraca air pada Stasiun Candung didapatkan jadwal tanam cabai yang tepat berada pada Bulan Februari. Sedangkan pada Stasiun Matur, jadwal yang tanam cabai dapat dilakukan pada Bulan Mei, dan Stasiun Gobah pada Bulan Januari. Diharapkan kepada petani cabai untuk menyesuaikan jadwal tanam cabai pada bulan tersebut agar mendapatkan kuantitas dan kualitas cabai yang diharapkan.
EKSPLORASI ASPEK SOSIO-EKOLOGI UNTUK MENDUKUNG PEMBANGUNAN KAWASAN WISATA BERWAWASAN LINGKUNGAN DI KAWASAN EKOSISTEM ESENSIAL PULAU BELIBIS, SOLOK
Authors: Janra Muhammad Nazri , Herwina Henny , Mairawita Mairawita , Nurdin Jabang
Published: June 2019

Kawasan Ekosistem Esensial (KEE) Pulau Belibis yang terletak di Kabupaten Solok, Sumatera Barat dikenal dahulunya sebagai habitat untuk burung belibis (Dendrocygna javanica) dalam populasi yang signifikan. Seiring dengan pembangunan keparawisataan di kawasan ini melalui pembukaan kawasan, penambahan fasilitas rekreasi dan pembangunan hunian baru di sekitarnya, membuat aspek ekologis kawasan ini kurang terperhatikan. Wacana untuk mengembalikan ciri khas wilayah yang dihuni, terutama oleh, burung belibis telah dicanangkan oleh Pemerintah Kabupaten Solok baru-baru ini. Mengingat kawasan ini telah sangat dipengaruhi oleh keberadaan manusia, maka aspek sosio-ekologinya sangat penting untuk diketahui dalam menunjang usaha pengembangan daerah wisata yang berwawasan lingkungan. Untuk itulah sebuah survey sosio-ekologi dilakukan untuk mengetahui persepsi dan pengetahuan masyarakat terhadap kawasan dan biodiversitas Pulau Belibis dalam hubungannya dengan kegiatan parawisata di dalamnya. Delapan belas orang responden yang terdiri dari pengunjung dan warga sekitar disurvey dengan menggunakan kuisioner berisi pertanyaan seputar aspek sosioekologi, untuk kemudian dianalisa secara deskriptif. Analisis terhadap hasil survey menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar pengunjung puas dengan kondisi terkini objek wisata, tetapi menyatakan bahwa sistem pengelolaan kawasan masih perlu ditingkatkan. Terdapat indikasi partisipatif dari para responden untuk turut menjaga kondisi lingkungan di Pulau Belibis. Sebagian besar responden mempunyai pengetahuan mengenai hewan atau tumbuhan alami yang ada di sana, bahkan semenjak sebelum pengembangan kawasan Pulau Belibis; tetapi keberadaan biodiversitas alami tersebut bukan menjadi alasan responden untuk berkunjung ke kawasan. Temuan ini mengisyaratkan perlunya usaha lebih lanjut untuk mengangkat kekayaan hayati di Pulau Belibis sebagai bagian dari ekowisata, misalnya dengan mengisolasi sebagian kawasan dari pengaruh manusia sehingga biodiversitas alami dapat kembali berkembang, membuat kandang terbatas untuk memelihara belibis yang diintroduksi kembali ke kawasan, atau dengan cara lainnya.

Pengaruh Perbedaan Tegangan Pemanas terhadap Performa Refrigeran R12, R134a dan MC134 pada Refrigeration Laboratory Unit
Authors: Senoadi Senoadi , Aliandi Arif Akhmad , Permatasari Rosyida
Published: June 2019

Along with technological developments and population growth, the need for air conditioner (AC) is increasing, both those used in industry, offices, buildings, housing, vehicles, and others. In the use of AC, refrigerant is needed. Based on the Montreal agreement, it was agreed to replace refrigerants that are more environmentally friendly. The refrigerant used today is refrigerant with CFC and HCFC compounds. The use of those refrigerants result in ODP and GWP. This study aims to determine the energy efficiency of three refrigerants: R12, R134a, and MC134, by comparing the COP value of a refrigeration laboratory unit machine. Based on the test results, COP of MC134 refrigerant has the highest value compared to R12 and R134a refrigerants. Therefore, it can be concluded that MC134, a hydrocarbon refrigerant, could be considered as a substitute for R12 and R134 refrigerants, eventhough  flammability of the  hydrocarbons at certain temperatures should be considered also.

Linguagem e Hegemonia na Filosofia Marxiana
Authors: Menezes Luiz Maurício Bentim da Rocha
Published: June 2019

Nos estudos marxianos comtem-porâneos é preciso verificar alguns valores clássicos desenvolvidos com relação à filosofia da linguagem. O intuito deste artigo é discutir as vertentes contem-porâneas do marxismo partindo da sua relação com a linguagem. Para isso, nos utilizaremos da obra clássica de Bakhtin Marxismo e Filosofia da Linguagem, recons-truindo o caminho traçado por ele ao relacionar linguagem e ideologia. Por fim, pretendemos adentrar os estudos sobre pós-marxismo centrados na questão da hegemonia e do poder na obra Hegemonia e Estratégia Socialista, de Ernesto Laclau e Chantal Mouffe. A partir desse debate pretendemos apresentar em que consiste o conceito de hegemonia dos autores e seu vínculo com a filosofia da linguagem.
Pragmatic ambiguity and Kripke’s dialogue against Donnellan
Authors: Penco Carlo
Published: June 2019

In this paper I discuss Donnellan’s claim of the pragmatic ambiguity of the distinction between referential and attributive uses of definite des-criptions. The literature on the topic is huge and full of alternative analysis. I will restrict myself to a very classical topos: the challenge posed by Kripke to Donnellan’s distinction with the case of a dialogue on an attempt to update a misdescription. I claim that to treat the problem of the referential use of definite descriptions we need not only to take into account the context of utterance, but also the cognitive context with its epistemic restrictions and the possible different contexts of reception of the same utterance. I try to show different aspects of what can be called “pragmatic ambiguity”, which seem not correctly considered by Kripke, and connect them to the basic tenets of Grice Cooperative principle.
A capacidade linguística humana em Charles Taylor
Authors: Foschiera Rogerio
Published: June 2019

Taylor destaca duas dimensões da linguagem: uma designativa, quando o meio faz referência a um objeto, ou seja, o significado de um signo é a coisa à qual ele se refere ou designa, e outra expressiva, que expressa minha ideia, minha percepção, minha convic-ção e que pode ser compartilhada com os outros. Expressar é colocar à vista os sentimentos. Para Taylor, a lingua-gem precisa ser holística, principalmente no sentido de que entrar na dimensão linguística é reconhecer e criar um novo espaço ao nosso redor. A ciência social e política predo-minante tende a lidar com a realidade a partir de dados brutos objetivados ou dados subjetivos e individualizados. Essa visão exclui a consideração de que que a realidade social se carac-teriza por significações intersubjetiva e comuns. Questões como autonomia, racionalidade e negociação são exem-plos de significações intersubjetivas, mesmo que possam ser questionadas por grupos ou pessoas de nossa cultura e mesmo que em outras culturas elas possam não estar presentes.

Durante el año 2016, fueron notificados 92 casos de accidentes por animales ponzoñosos, 90% fueron por ofidismo, los cuales fueron más frecuentes en varones 88%, de 20 a 39 años. Sin embargo, los provocados por escorpiones fueron más frecuentes en el sexo femenino 57% y de 1 a 9 años.  El género Bothrops fue el responsable de la mayoria de los acidentes ofídicos. Para ambos agentes, los accidentes fueron classificados como moderados. Las víctimas por serpientes llevaron de 3-6 horas para recibir atención sanitaria, en tanto las víctimas por escorpionismo llevaron de 1 a 3 horas. Para ambos casos, los afectados evolucionaron sin ninguna secuela. A pesar de su nula o escasa mortalidad estos accidentes constituyen un importante problema de Salud Pública.
The Modified Lateral Approach: Experience of a Single Center using an Alternative Technique to Conventional Transpedicular Percutaneous Vertebroplasty
Authors: Dupuis Isabelle , Forghani Reza , Le Huy
Published: June 2019

Objective:

The objective of this study was to assess whether the placement of a needle more lateral to the pedicle while using a transpedicular approach compared to the conventional technique yields comparable or better vertebral body filling.

Methods:

Retrospective review of 134 thoracic and lumbar unipedicular vertebroplasties performed by a single radiologist (110 lateral and 24 classic). Vertebral bodies were divided into eight voxels on computed tomography and the percent of coverage was documented. 50% and 75% cement filling thresholds were defined as “efficient.” Complications were retrospectively collected. Chi-square (χ2) was used to compare the filling efficacy and rates of extravertebral cement leakage between the approaches. Bivariate analysis was performed to assess variables potentially influencing the efficacy.

Results:

There was no significant difference between the two approaches for 50% coverage (classic; n = 21 [87.5%] vs. lateral; n = 98 [89.1%], P = 0.8228). There was more efficient coverage >75% using the lateral approach (classic; n = 4 [16.7%] vs. lateral; n = 46 (41.8%), P = 0.0210). Vertebral body level (50.8% thoracic vs. 26.0% lumbar, P = 0.0031) and fracture type (45.6% pathological vs. 29.2% osteoporotic, P = 0.0444) were associated with 75% coverage. Three classic cases (12.5%) had extravertebral cement leakage versus 34 lateral cases (30.9%), which was not statistically significant (P = 0.0676). Other complications included one asymptomatic lung embolization using both approaches, one pedicular fracture using the classic approach, and one overnight admission for analgesia using the lateral approach.

Conclusion:

A modified lateral approach proved to be as safe and more effective in achieving 75% or more vertebral filling in treating compression fractures compared to the conventional approach.
Direitos à saúde na sociedade contemporânea:
Authors: Nogueira Vera Maria Ribeiro
Published: June 2019

Este artigo contém uma reflexão sobre o direito à saúde na sociedade contemporânea e decorre de preocupações éticas e políticas que surgem e se intensificam face das novas agendas para o setor saúde, veiculadas pelo Banco Mundial, Banco Interamericano de Desenvolvimento (BID) e Organização Pan-Americana de Saúde (OPAS) (2002). Compondo a tendência mais radical do paradigma da economia da saúde e acentuando uma visão de cidadaniasocial restrita e atribuída aos segmentos populacionais extremamente empobrecidos, vem sendo denominado pelas agencias multilaterais como a nova geração das reformas sanitárias (Laforgia, Raw, Levcovitz, 2002, Marin, 2002).
A saúde no sistema de seguridade social brasileiro
Authors: Pereira Potyara A. P.
Published: June 2019

O objetivo central deste artigo é examinar as tendências recentes da proteção à saúde no Brasil, no marco da Constituição Federal de 1988. Pretende-se demonstrar que, apesar de a saúde fazer parte do Sistema de Seguridade Social, inaugurado por esta Constituição, ela não se realizou de forma integrada às demais políticas que compõem o Sistema e nem produziu as reformas pretendidas. Pelo contrário, por contrariar interesses privados e conservadores, a concepção de saúde como direito de todos foi atingida por uma onda contra-reformista, surgida nos anos 1990, com o apoio do Executivo federal. Hoje, a política de saúde carece de uma nova coalizão de forças para transformar-se numa questão capaz de devolver-lhe o caráter público e a vinculação com a cidadania.
Imprecisão conceitual e pulverização dos recursos federais na Função Assistência Social
Authors: Boschetti Ivanete , Teixeira Sandra Oliveira
Published: June 2019

O texto analisa o gasto federal brasileiro da 'Função Assistência Social', conforme classificação do Orçamento Geral da União, no período de 1994 a 2001. Duas situações foram constatadas: a pulverização dos recursos em diversas unidades orçamentárias, sem uma correspondente articulação com os mecanismos do sistema descentralizado e participativo da assistência social; e a outra, o equívoco na concepção de assistência social, o que ocasiona a dispersão do recurso em ações que não tem caráter assistencial. São situações que contribuem para descaracterizar a política de assistência social, transformando-a em território indefinido e passível de ser capturada por todo e qualquer interesse clientelista.
As interfaces da Assistências Social:
Authors: Pereira Potyara A. P.
Published: June 2019

Dois são os principais propósitos deste ensaio: a) ratificar a existência de interfaces entre a política de assistência social e as demais políticas públicas (econômicas e sociais), as quais podem ser trabalhadas em prol da extensão da cidadania; b) contradizer a tendência tecnocrática de separar as políticas públicas em setores para conferir-lhes conteúdo próprio. Para ilustrar os argumentos apresentados destaca-se a relação entre a política de assistência e a política de transporte, mostrando que elas podem manter vínculos orgânicos entre si sem perder as suas identidades.
Uma crítica francesa acerca do espaço urbano
Authors: Souza Perci Coelho de
Published: June 2019

A dimensão espacial urbana foi objeto de uma polêmica teórica que ganhou maior visibilidade no meio acadêmico com a entrada em cena da Escola Marxista Francesa em meados dos século passado. Este texto apresenta um recorte do itinerário acadêmico de alguns de seus principais interpretes de primeira geração discutindo seus pontos de convergência e divergência em relação aos fundamentos marxistas. Admite-se que na contemporaneidade a problemática espacial-urbana vem sofrendo novas inflexões de natureza teórica, mas nem por isso, o rigor e fundamento dessa escola francesa perde vitalidade, pelo contrário, muitas de suas categorias são renovadas e imprescindíveis para explicar a dinâmica territorial do capital escamoteada pela ideologia da "globalização".

Condição (não) salarial, seguridade social e exclusão
Authors: Ferreira Ivanete Salete Boschetti
Published: June 2019

Este artigo trata da previdência social no Brasil. Traça um histórico do programa, relacionando-o com a propriedade social, condições salariais e cidadania e analisando as mudanças ocorridas desde sua criação. Afirma que embora a estrutura dos "seguros sociais" esteja implementada no Brasil desde o início do século XX, até hoje, a previdência social não conseguiu consolidar-se como um sistema de seguridade social ampliado a toda a população e levanta alguns questionamentos. Por que a lógica do seguro, considerada potencialmente universalista, não ultrapassou o universalismo formal e não se tornou a base de uma proteção generalizada a toda população? Quais são os elementos que impediram ou dificultaram a transmutação do seguro em seguridade social universal?
Centralização e exclusão social:

Published: June 2019

By applying the fully modified ordinary least square (FMOLS), this study examines the impact of bank-specific factor and macro-specific factors on bank liquidity, for the period of 2000 to 2017. The bank specific factors include bank crises, bank size, total deposit, and profitability. While it considers a macro-specific factors GDP, inflation, monetary policy and unemployment. Findings reveal that based on time series data, we suggest that bank-specific and macro-specific factor significantly effect on bank liquidity. Empirical results reported that at 5 percent level of significance total deposit, GDP, bank size and unemployment have a negative impact on liquidity of the bank. While monetary policy, bank crisis and profitability have a positive impact on liquidity. Inflation has an insignificant relation with liquidity. The study reported new facts for increase more clear understanding of liquidity in a developing country like Pakistan.
FURNITURE ACCESSORIES MARKET: AN EXPLORATORY APPROACH AT EUROPEAN MARKET LEVEL
Authors: Petrache Beatrice
Published: June 2019

In this article, we aim to identify the views and attitudes of major furniture manufacturers in the European Union on the current situation and trends of the European furniture market and furniture accessories. If for the furniture market has been made more studies and research along the way, for the furniture accessories market this is the first qualitative research to be carried out both at national and European level, a initiative caused by the fact that we have not identified other secondary sources with the exception of data taken from a representative producer, which supplies over 80% of furniture accessories to major furniture manufacturers in Europe. National and European statistics do not highlight the market for furniture accessories, although in our opinion it is of great importance for the reference industry. In this context, a qualitative research has been carried out whose main objective is to identify the role accessories have in the ergonomics and design of furniture of all categories, regardless of their destination (house, office, hotel, restaurant etc.). The specific objectives of qualitative research are: to identify the opinions and attitudes of the managers of the major furniture manufacturers on the importance of furniture and furniture accessories at the industry level; identifying the views and attitudes of the furniture managers in the furniture industry on the specific market trends in terms of the dynamics of consumer preferences on this market.

Authors: Susilowati Etty , Sugiharto Sugiharto , Leonnard Leonnard , Srihartati Budi
Published: June 2019

The availability of student dormitories has become a major attraction for universities in Indonesia since many universities have provided this facility. In this study, we examine the potential of a student dormitory development at the Budi Luhur University, especially in terms of finance for student interests and education providers. Primary data were collected from 185 students and were analyzed by employing feasibility test of Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), Net Benefit Cost Ratio (Net B/C), Profitability Index (PI) and Pay Back Period (PP). Sensitivity analysis was also carried out both in terms of cost and income to anticipate the uncertainty that may occur. The findings indicated that the total investment required in the construction of the student dormitory was Rp 155,857,800 with an average revenue per annum of Rp 58,314,741,732. The results of the investment valuation analysis of net cash flows for 30 years indicated the NPV value of Rp 187,355,802,592, IRR of 21%, Net B/C of 10.57, PI of 2.20, and PBP 6.45 years. This proved that the investment in the student dormitory construction was considered feasible. Finally, from the sensitivity analysis of changes in occupancy rate, rental rates and operational costs, it was concluded that the investment in dormitory construction would be unfeasible when occupancy rates and rents were at the level of 80% down. Further managerial implications were discussed.

Authors: Niminet Liviana Andreea , Bucur Iulia Andreea
Published: June 2019

Having a tremendous importance for the modern state, tax system objectives, regulations and collection is a precise barometer for state’s economic development and for its trajectory, as well as for more subtle aspects such as political efficiency and common weal. As we can easily understand it is essential that we know and comprehend the means and the endings of tax system in a dynamical sequence that means always looking at where it came from and , in the same time, where it is going to. It is for these reasons that we proposed a time evolution analyze for the Romanian tax system, highlighting its main components such as: personal income tax, corporate income tax, value added tax, social contributions, excise duty and the changes they have been through in the past years focusing on the current “fiscal revolution” and the alterations produced of Romania’s tax system seen as a part of the European tax system.
INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC RELATIONS AND THEIR INFLUENCE UPON POWER CENTERS EVOLUTION

Published: June 2019

The relative advantages of the nations at the top of the international hierarchy are never constant, the reasons being in particular related to the uneven rhythm of development of the various societies. This rhythm is correlated with technological and organizational advances, which offers a great advantage to certain societies in relation to others.

Authors: Dansu Francis Sewhenu , Obalola Adebayo
Published: June 2019

Reinsurance is used by primary insurers as a device to cushion the effect of underwriting and solvency risks. However, an overdependence on reinsurance could cause depletion in the income of the primary insurer. The study examined the effect of reinsurance on the financial performance of non-life insurers in Nigeria. Secondary data used for this research were analysed with descriptive statistics, coefficient of determination (R2), and linear regression. Results showed a significant positive relationship between reinsurance utilisation and premium growth rate. Similarly, a significant positive relationship was found between reinsurance dependence and profitability (loss ratio). It was recommended that non-life insurers should embrace more of reinsurance facilities particularly for risks of high loss potentials in order to stabilise premium growth rate. In addition, Insurance firms in Nigeria should harness their claims management activities in order to minimise cost and exposure to underwriting risks.

The perceived school climate in Croatian elementary schools with poor, average and good school’s learning environment
Authors: Burušić Josip
Published: June 2019

The cross-sectional research design was used to investigate differences in teachers’ perception of school climate in schools with poor, average and good school’s learning environment, and to explore to what degree is possible to explain six school climate dimensions by school’s learning environment, some teacher’s characteristics and teaching practice experience. Participants in the study were 785 teachers from 44 primary schools in northern part of Croatia, 121 males and 579 females. Participants rated school climate in school where they teach and in addition provided information about various school’s learning environment. Schools which teachers perceived as having good school’s learning environment clearly differ in the level of school climate quality - school climate is significantly better in schools with better school’s learning environment. The performed hierarchical regression analyses, demonstrated in addition, how school’s learning environment and characteristics of teachers and teaching practice (e.g. gender, age, work experience and education level) are powerful predictors of (positive) school climate. In this paper, we provide possible explanation and stress importance on school climate as an essential concept in school effectiveness concerns and activities.
School leadership and educational effectiveness

Published: June 2019

This paper examines the links between student learning and school leadership focusing on Lithuania in comparative perspective. Different aspects of school leadership areas are being outlined, but after a more thorough analysis of the educational effectiveness perspective, it seems that the direct link between principal and student achievement is not that clear. In order to explain this, we further analysed the role which school autonomy plays in effective leadership and found that different countries chose different levels of power distribution. After revealing diversity in meta-analyses and reviews about the existing effect sizes of school decentralization we looked into different tasks on which school heads spend their time, and noticed that instructional leadership is most effective in adding value to student achievement. What exactly counts as instructional leadership is debated and may change depending on context. The presumption that leadership and school effectiveness are related, could be valid only if school accountability and autonomy particularities are taken into account, therefore the reforms in selection, recruitment and training of school heads could be expected to drive effectiveness of education systems only as far as the right balance of the three (accountability, autonomy, leadership) are found.

Social competences, and particularly good communication skills, are becoming increasingly important in contemporary professional environment. Although studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of different training strategies, many Lithuanian higher education institutions have not yet incorporated the training of communication skills in their curriculum. The aim of this paper is to assess the communication skills of healthcare students in Lithuania and indicate the benefits of their development. Students graduating from a variety of health sciences study programs (N=118) self-assessed their communication skills. The results show that participants their communication skills as average with some potential strengths, i.e. ability to talk about things of interest to every person in conversation, recognizing how others are reacting to what is being said, not interrupting others in the conversation, understanding other people’s feelings, ability to praise the person, etc. On the other hand, some skills and abilities need to be improved, i.e. expressing opinion in a non-aggressive manner, as well as thinking and speaking clearly, while being emotional.

Published: June 2019

The current crisis of confidence in psychological science has spurred on fieldwide reforms to enhance transparency, reproducibility, and replicability. To solidify these reforms within the scientific community, student courses on open science practices are essential. Here we describe the content of our Research Master course “Good Research Practices” which we have designed and taught at the University of Amsterdam. Supported by Chambers’ recent book The 7 Deadly Sins of Psychology, the course covered topics such as QRPs, the importance of direct and conceptual replication studies, preregistration, and the public sharing of data, code, and analysis plans. We adopted a pedagogical approach that (1) reduced teacher-centered lectures to a minimum; (2) emphasized practical training on open science practices; (3) encouraged students to engage in the ongoing discussions in the open science community on social media platforms.
