Authors: Putra Ramdani Bayu , Aima Havidz , Yulasmi
Published: September 2023

Purpose: This study aims to identify and analyze the role of organizational fit in mediating and moderating knowledge-oriented leadership on employee performance.
 
Theoretical framework: Research on the factors that influence employee performance has been carried out a lot. Organizations need to seek the application of knowledge-oriented leadership and organizational compatibility as important factors affecting employee performance. This leadership encourages innovation, creativity, and continuous learning, so that it can improve employee performance in the long term, (Ismail Al‐Alawi, Yousif Al‐Marzooqi and Fraidoon Mohammed, 2007; Hermastho, 2021). Furthermore, organizations that have a high level of compatibility tend to have employees who are more satisfied and motivated in doing their jobs, (Kristof, 1996; Hidayat, Tjahjono and Fauziyah, 2017).
 
Design/methodology/approach: The object of this research is the Padang City Regional Secretariat Office with a total of 222 respondents. The research data is primary data collected through questionnaires relating to all research variables. The research model is Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) by processing data using smart pls 3.
 
Findings:  The results of the hypothesis conclude, knowledge-oriented leadership has a strong and significant effect on organizational suitability and employee performance at the Padang City Regional Secretariat. The mediating effect of organizational fit is a factor that strengthens employee performance. However, organizational compability does not moderate the influence of Knowledge Oriented Leadership on employee performance.
 
Research, Practical & Social implications: Research findings can be useful for organizations to maximize knowledge-oriented leadership and organizational compatibility to improve employee performance, both directly and indirectly.
 
Originality/value: Organizational Compatibility is an important factor in strengthening or mediating knowledge-oriented leadership to improve employee performance. However, Organizational Compatibility does not moderate knowledge-oriented leadership to improve performance. This is due to the suitability of the characteristics between the organization and employees is not fulfilled either in quantity or quality.

Using a descriptive-correlational approach, this study aimed to quantify the prevalence of ACEs (adverse childhood experiences) and aggression among young adults in Malita. It specifically determines the level of ACEs and aggression, the significant relationship between ACEs and aggression, and the area of the independent variable that was most strongly associated with the aggression of young adults. 98 respondents were randomly selected to take part in the study. The independent variable was measured using two adapted questionnaires, namely, the Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) Questionnaire [47] and the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire [26], while Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire (1992) [22] for the dependent variable. The researchers made used of a variety of statistical methods, including the mean, Spearman's rho, and step-wise multiple regression. Among the five types of abuse, results showed that emotional abuse was a commonly reported form of adversity in childhood. Meanwhile, at the level of aggression, verbal aggression was shown to have the highest responses out of the three different types of aggression. The findings of the study showed no statistical significance between varia-bles. While emotional neglect, among other forms of adversity in childhood, was the lone predictor of aggression in young adults.

PRZESTĘPSTWO TZW. SZEPTANKI (ART. 22 M.K.K.) A WYPOWIEDZI DOTYCZĄCE RELIGII
Authors: Siemaszko Karol
Published: September 2023

Komuniści przejmując władzę w Polsce po II wojnie światowej początkowo nie wprowadzali skrajnie antyreligijnych przepisów prawa na wzór rozwiązań przyjmowanych w ZSRR. Nie oznacza to, że wolność wyznania i wolność wypowiedzi dotyczących religii nie ulegała ograniczeniu. Służyły temu między innymi przepisy dekretu z 13 czerwca 1946 roku o przestępstwach szczególnie niebezpiecznych w okresie odbudowy państwa (tzw. mały kodeks karny). Bardzo często wypowiedzi zarówno świeckich jak i duchownych w sposób krytyczny odnoszące się do polityki wyznaniowej państwa jak również do innych kwestii natury religijnej, były kwalifikowane jako przestępstwo z art. 22 m.k.k. (tzw. szeptanka). Praktyka taka utrzymywała się także po wejściu w życie dekretu z 5 sierpnia 1949 roku o ochronie wolności sumienia i wyznania. Celem niniejszej pracy jest przedstawienie, na wybranych przykładach, praktyki stosowania przez sądy powszechne art. 22 m.k.k. wobec osób formułujących krytyczne wypowiedzi w stosunku do polityki wyznaniowej prowadzonej przez władze komunistyczne w pierwszych latach Polski Ludowej w stosunku do Kościoła Katolickiego.
DISABLED AT WORK. COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF WORK CHARACTERISTICS AND ASSESSMENT OF JOB SATISFACTION OF PEOPLE WITH AND WITHOUT DISABILITIES
Authors: Masłyk Tomasz
Published: September 2023

In the social dimension, the activity of people with disabilities in the labour market is one of the important indicators of the effectiveness of inclusion policies. In the individual dimension, it defines the opportunities for shaping one's own subjectivity against the dysfunctions that cause disability. However, interest in the issue of work of people with disabilities should not be limited to employment statistics but should also include issues of job satisfaction. This paper attempts to assess job satisfaction of people with disabilities, for whom the reference category was non-disabled people. The analysis of job satisfaction was done in several steps. Firstly, based on descriptive statistics and simple statistical tests, differences in the evaluation of the overall level of job satisfaction people with disabilities and non-disabled people were indicated, as well as differences in job characteristics (its evaluation and conditions). In step two, the relationship between job characteristics and disability was estimated. Based on a logistic regression model, an attempt was made to indicate whether specific job characteristics significantly influence the likelihood of self-identification as a person with disability. Thirdly, it was estimated which of the identified job characteristics were significantly associated with overall job satisfaction. These relationships were tested using an ordinal logistic regression model. The model also tested whether disability itself was a significant predictor of job satisfaction. The analysis was based on European Social Survey 2023 data.
Zwolnienie z VAT działalności w zakresie gier hazardowych – dotychczasowe doświadczenia i możliwe kierunki zmian
Authors: Duda-Hyz Michalina
Published: September 2023

W Polsce, od momentu wprowadzenia podatku od towarów i usług do końca 2008 r., przepisy normujące tę daninę nie miały zastosowania do działalności w zakresie gier losowych i zakładów wzajemnych, co było niezgodne z prawem unijnym i niekorzystne z perspektywy interesu finansowego państwa. Od dnia 1 stycznia 2009 r. działalność hazardowa podlega zwolnieniu z VAT1. W artykule omówiono ewolucję krajowych regulacji dotyczących zwolnienia z VAT działalności hazardowej oraz kontrowersje związane ze stosowaniem tej preferencji. Przeprowadzona analiza prowadzi do konkluzji, że przyjęta w dyrektywie Rady 2006/112/WE z dnia 28 listopada 2006 r. w sprawie wspólnego systemu podatku od wartości dodanej2 konstrukcja zwolnienia podatkowego dotyczącego działalności hazardowej nie odpowiada wymogom współczesnego rynku e-hazardu. Ponieważ z doświadczeń państw, w których funkcjonuje tzw. nowoczesny VAT, wynika, że opodatkowanie usług hazardowych jest technicznie możliwe, uzasadniony wydaje się postulat rezygnacji z tego zwolnienia. Wprowadzenie takich regulacji wymaga jednak zmiany w sposobie postrzegania samego zjawiska hazardu, jak również przyjęcia pewnych założeń dotyczących tego, co stanowi wartość dodaną w działalności hazardowej i jak należy ową wartość ustalać.

Published: September 2023

Solving the problems of “agriculture, rural areas” has always been the top priority of national development work and the focus of social attention. Logistics, as the “third source of income”, can give full play to the role of logistics to enable agricultural products to obtain higher returns in the case of high production. In the context of the increasing demand for high-quality life, it is particularly important to reduce the consumption of agricultural products in the transportation process and ensure the quality of fresh agricultural products. A reasonable logistics network system can effectively reduce costs, save manpower and promote the increase of farmers’ income. Based on the research of factor analysis and gravity model, this paper adopts 11 prefecture-level cities in Hebei Province as research samples, and studies the economic development level of each city in Hebei Province, the scale and level of logistics industry development, the demand degree of agricultural products, and the supply degree of agricultural products as four indicators, and constructs a regional agricultural product logistics quality index system. The logistics quality and logistics gravity of agricultural products were calculated, the results of the model were graded, the regional logistics network of agricultural products was drawn and analyzed based on the logistics gravity strength, and some suggestions were put forward to improve the development of regional logistics network of agricultural products. Based on this, this paper believes that only by vigorously developing the construction of agricultural logistics network system can agriculture get better development, and in promoting the development of agriculture, it can optimize and upgrade the local logistics infrastructure and drive the regional economic development.
Antimicrobial peptides: the role of hydrophobicity in the alpha helical structure
Authors: Perumal Pandurangan , Pandey Vijaya P.
Published: September 2023

The antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a class of molecule obtained from plants, insects, animals, and humans. These peptides have been classified into five categories: 1. Anionic peptide, 2. Linear alpha helical cationic peptide, 3. Cationic peptide, 4. Anionic and cationic peptides with disulphide bonds, and 5. Anionic and cationic peptide fragments of larger proteins. Factors affecting AMPs are sequence, size, charge, hydrophobicity, amphipathicity, structure and conformation. Synthesis of these peptides is convenient by using solid phase peptide synthesis by using FMOC chemistry protocol. The secondary structures of three synthetic peptides were determined by circular dichroism. Also, it was compared the stability of the α-helical structure and confirmed the percentage of helix of these peptides by using circular dichroism. Some of these AMPs show therapeutic properties like antimicrobial, antiviral, contraceptive, and anticancer. The formulations of some peptides have been entered into the phase I, II, or III of clinical trials. This article to review briefly the sources, classification, factors affecting AMPs activity, synthesis, characterization, mechanism of action and therapeutic concern of AMPs and mainly focussed on percentage of α-helical structure in various medium.

Published: September 2023

Context: The aqueous extracts of Urera baccifera Wedd. leaves and roots are used to inflammatory and infectious diseases in Brazilian folk medicine. Oxalic acid, a substance co-related with toxicity and stinging, was already quantified in this plant. Aims: To evaluate the action of leaves and roots infusions (1, 30, 75 g/L) and the oxalic acid standard on mitosis as indicative of presumably antimitotic and genotoxic actions, using the Allium cepa test. Methods: Oxalic acid was quantified in the roots and leaves infusions by High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC-DAD), with the mobile phase of 25 mM phosphate buffer (pH 2.5): acetonitrile at 95:5 (v/v). To the genotoxicity test, onion bulbs were used. After the rootlets germination, each bulb was submitted for 24 h of the individual treatments. Were analyzed 1000 cells per bulb, in a total of 5000 cells per treatment. Results: Results showed that all concentrations of roots infusions induced chromosomes abnormalities, except for the highest, that caused a substantial inhibition in the mitosis, precluding to be observed abnormalities. In the leaves infusions, only the two higher concentrations caused the highest values of damage in the cellular cycle. The oxalic acid also caused abnormalities in the mitosis, and may be considered responsible by part of the genotoxic action of U. baccifera. Conclusions: Oxalic acid can be responsible by part of the chromosomal abnormalities caused by U. baccifera, although, there must have more metabolites that evoke the same effect promoting the genotoxic effect of this nettle.

Ailanthus altissima in Urban Neighborhoods of Denver, Colorado
Authors:   , Todd Jenny
Published: September 2023

Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle, also known as Tree of Heaven, is a non-native tree found throughout North America. The competitive advantages of Ailanthus make it a formidable invader that reduces biodiversity, especially in urban environments. In these areas, Ailanthus can cause structural damage to buildings, pavement, and other infrastructure such as plumbing. Although Ailanthus can commonly be observed throughout neighborhoods of Denver, Colorado, its prevalence and frequency are not well documented. The purpose of this study was to determine the distribution and abundance of Ailanthus among selected urban, residential areas and parks within the City of Denver. This was accomplished by surveying neighborhoods using GPS equipment and documenting occurrences. Specifically, this study focused on the adjoining neighborhoods of Capitol Hill, Cheesman Park, Country Club, Speer, and Washington Park. The data collected during this study provides an understanding of where current populations of this weedy species exist in these neighborhoods, and suggests that Ailanthus is spreading at an alarming rate. This study aligns with the city’s current agenda of preserving that quality of the canopy and can assist foresters to further investigate and manage Ailanthus in Denver.

Background

Robust evidence regarding the benefits and harms of notifying Australian women when routine breast screening identifies that they have dense breasts is needed for informing future mammography population screening practice and policy.

Objectives

To assess the psychosocial and health services use effects of notifying women participating in population‐based breast cancer screening that they have dense breasts; to examine whether the mode of communicating this information about its implications (print, online formats) influences these effects.

Methods and analysis

The study population comprises women aged 40 years or older who attend BreastScreen Queensland Sunshine Coast services for mammographic screening and are found to have dense breasts (BI‐RADS density C or D). The randomised controlled trial includes three arms (952 women each): standard BreastScreen care (no notification of breast density; control arm); notification of dense breasts in screening results letter and print health literacy‐sensitive information (intervention arm 1) or a link or QR code to online video‐based health literacy‐sensitive information (intervention arm 2). Baseline demographic data will be obtained from BreastScreen Queensland. Outcomes data will be collected in questionnaires at baseline and eight weeks, twelve months, and 27 months after breast screening. Primary outcomes will be psychological outcomes and health service use; secondary outcomes will be supplemental screening outcomes, cancer worry, perceived breast cancer risk, knowledge about breast density, future mammographic screening intentions, and acceptability of notification about dense breasts.

Ethics approval

Gold Coast Hospital and Health Service Ethics Committee (HREC/2023/QGC/89770); Sunshine Coast Hospital and Health Service Research Governance and Development (SSA/2023/QSC/89770).

Dissemination of findings

Findings will be reported in peer‐reviewed journals and at national and international conferences. They will also be reported to BreastScreen Queensland, BreastScreen Australia, Cancer Australia, and other bodies involved in cancer care and screening, including patient and support organisations.

Empirische Evaluationen von Normen auf ihre Zielerreichung hin bieten eine Möglichkeit zur Quantifizierung und Überprüfung gesetzgeberischen Erfolgs. Der Beitrag führt vor diesem Hintergrund in eine weit verbreitete Methode der ökonometrischen Analyse von rechtlichen Maßnahmen ein. Diese wird anhand von Beispielen erläutert, auf den juristischen Diskurs bezogen und kritisch hinterfragt.

Bei der Erforschung von und in Konfliktkonstellationen ist es wichtig, gesellschaftliche (Macht-)Asymmetrien und Eskalationspotenziale im Blick zu haben und sensible wie kreative Umgangsformen mit ihnen zu finden. Dieser Beitrag bietet auf erfahrungsbasierter Grundlage eine Einschätzung dazu an, inwiefern sich Partizipative Konfliktforschung vor dem genannten Hintergrund als besonders geeignet für die Erforschung von Konfliktbearbeitung erweist. Er beruht auf Erfahrungen aus der Pilotphase des Projekts »Kommunale Konfliktberatung und Partizipative Konfliktforschung« (KomPa). Skizziert werden der Forschungskontext und zentrale Begriffe, bevor in einem polylogischen Gesprächsformat die Beteiligten des Forschungsprojektes in einen Austausch über ihre gewonnenen Einsichten und Erkenntnisse treten.

Published: September 2023

Start- und Endpunkt dieser Reise war der Börsen- und Finanzplatz Frankfurt am Main. Der Vizepräsident der dortigen Industrie- und Handelskammer eröffnete am 30. Juni 2023 das erstmals in Deutschland durchgeführte World Forum of Mediation Centres der UIA International Association of Lawyers. Die Co-Chairs Fabienne van der Vleugel und Ross W. Stoddard, III hatten den Themenkoffer für die aus aller Welt angereisten Mediatoren prall gefüllt. Die Themen und die zweitägigen Diskussionen können in ihrer Vielfalt nur als Überblick dargestellt werden. Die Quellenangaben bieten darüber hinaus viele Möglichkeiten, einzelne Themen weiter zu recherchieren und sich zu Fragen der internationalen Mediation zu informieren. Bereits daraus sollte sich für den geneigten Leser jedoch genügend food for thoughts ergeben.
Faktenprüfungen als vertrauenswürdige Informationsquellen: unvertrautes Vertrauen – vertrautes Misstrauen?
Authors: Ingold Albert
Published: September 2023

Der Beitrag widmet sich der Einordnung von Faktenprüfungen als Instrument der Content Curation auf Online-Plattformen. Der erste Teil des Beitrags (I.) stellt die gegenwärtigen Erscheinungsformen von Faktenchecks vor, arbeitet die rechtliche wie politische Ausgangssituation für selbige heraus und schematisiert die dabei zu unterscheidenden Vertrauensrelationen. Auf dieser Grundlage untersucht der zweite Teil des Beitrags (II.), welche Anforderungen vertrauensstiftend an das journalistische Format von Faktenprüfungen zu stellen sind, wobei innerhalb der Tatsachenbehauptungsorientierung derselben die rechtlichen Anforderungen im Wechselverhältnis von § 19 Abs. 1 MStV und § 109 Abs. 1 MStV sowie die Selbstregulierungsoptionen und mit Blick auf tatsächliche Wirksamkeitsanforderungen insbesondere Herausforderungen im Umgang mit wissenschaftlicher Expertise behandelt werden. Im dritten Teil des Beitrags (III.) werden demgegenüber die vertrauensstiftenden Umstände bei der vernetzten Implementation von Faktenprüfungen in den Blick genommen, innerhalb derer multipolare Einbettungsvarianten sowohl rechtlich wie mit Blick auf die tatsächlichen Wirkungsanforderungen vielgestaltige Erwägungen erfordern. Für den mitunter komplexen Grundrechtsausgleich wird eine Lösung durch Prozeduralisierungselemente favorisiert, während für die tatsächlichen Wirkungsbedingungen insbesondere die Orientierung an diskursiver Überzeugung als voraussetzungsreiche und nicht für alle Kommunikationsarrangements vielversprechende Ausrichtung problematisiert wird. Der abschließende vierte Teil (IV.) formuliert allgemeine Konzeptionierungsherausforderungen, die sowohl die Einpassung in überkommene Instrumentenstrukturen als auch die Rechtfertigung für eine Hierarchisierung gesellschaftlicher Kommunikation sowie das Verhältnis von Vertrauens- und Misstrauensorientierungen für Medienumgebungen thematisieren.
Vertrauenswürdige Forschung als Gegenmacht und Kontrollressource
Authors: Trute Hans-Heinrich
Published: September 2023

Solange Wissensdefizite über die algorithmengestützte Funktionsweise der Plattformen und Intermediäre bestehen und diese nur ein begrenztes Interesse an Aufklärung über Funktionen und Geschäftsmodelle zeigen, ist ein regulatorischer Ansatz wichtig, der auf zuverlässige Wissensgenerierung über Plattformen und große Suchmaschinen setzt, wie es jetzt in Art. 40 DSA und zuvor schon in der allerdings weitgehend wirkungslosen Vorschrift des § 5a NetzDG vorgesehen ist. Ein solcher Ansatz kann dazu beitragen, das nötige Wissen über die Funktionsweise von Plattformen und Intermediären zu verbessern, die Gründe für mögliche Schäden durch Plattformen und Intermediäre zu verdeutlichen und damit die Evidenzbasis (und möglicherweise die Effektivität) der Regulierung zu stärken. Vertrauenswürdige Forschung soll so zum Katalysator eines vertrauenswürdigen Umfeldes gesellschaftlicher Kommunikation werden. Diese Funktionalisierung gibt Anlass, den Tatbeständen der Inanspruchnahme der Wissenschaft zu regulatorischen Zwecken nachzugehen. Dabei zeigt sich, dass die Einbindung wissenschaftlicher Forschung zu regulatorischen Zwecken nicht ohne Risiken ist, die sowohl die Forschung wie auch die Plattformen und Suchmaschinen betrifft – auch im Hinblick auf in Anspruch genommenes Vertrauen.
Strafrecht Besonderer Teil I

Published: September 2023

Mord, Totschlag und Körperverletzung zählen im Studium zu den beliebtesten Beispielen, um allgemeine strafrechtliche Probleme und Grundsätze zu illustrieren. Dabei bieten diese Tatbestände selbst eine Vielzahl examensrelevanter Fragen, die es in Klausur, Hausarbeit und mündlicher Prüfung sicher zu lösen gilt. Selbiges gilt für die Urkunden- und die gemeingefährlichen Delikte. Das Lehrbuch "Strafrecht BT I" befasst sich intensiv mit diesen Fragestellungen, wobei auf eine kurze Einführung zu Zweck und Struktur der Vorschrift, Definitionen und Erläuterungen der Tatbestandsmerkmale in der Prüfungsreihenfolge des strafrechtlichen Gutachtens folgen. Abschließend wird auf typische ausbildungsrelevante Problemstellungen und Zusammenhänge mit den Lehren des Allgemeinen Teils verwiesen. Bei den komplizierteren Delikten helfen spezifische Hinweise bei der Fallprüfung. Für die 11. Auflage wurde das Lehrbuch wieder umfassend aktualisiert.
Der Beschlussvergleich

With the introduction of the new provision of Section 278 (6) of the Code of Civil Procedure in 2001, the so-called settlement by resolution was incorporated into the Code of Civil Procedure, thus creating the possibility of concluding court settlements outside the oral proceedings. In addition to the procedural requirements, the thesis deals with the conclusion of the settlement agreement in the various variants of Section 278 (6) sentence 1 of the Code of Civil Procedure, which was revised with effect from January 1, 2020, and thus with the interface between civil procedure law and the general doctrine of legal transactions under civil law. In doing so, the thesis shows that the fundamental principles anchored in the general doctrine of legal transactions are, in general, also to be applied accordingly in the context of Section 278 (6) of the Code of Civil Procedure, although their integration into the procedural regime must always be taken into account.
MPPT String Arrangement and Production Improvements in String Inverters
Authors: Bakır Hale
Published: September 2023

Today, as the demand for electrical energy increases, the demand for renewable energy, which is a clean energy source, continues to increase. Solar inverters used in solar power plants are devices that convert DC power to AC. Solar inverters are divided into three groups as central inverter, micro inverter and string inverter. String inverter model is used in this study. It has been determined that as a result of incorrectly connecting the string cables during installation and workmanship in the string inverter, the solar inverter does not work at full capacity and full efficiency cannot be obtained at its output. A problem experienced during the connection and installation phase causes inefficiency in the system and inability to get full efficiency from the inverter. For this reason, in this study, MPPT string cable arrangement, which is connected incorrectly in a string inverter, has been carried out and the production has been increased to 96.72 kW.
Prediction of fatigue life of mistuned steam turbine blades subjected to variations in blade geometry

There is a large number of power stations suffering from fatigue failures of the steam turbine blades. The steam turbine blades are also subjected to steam flow bending, centrifugal loading, vibration response, and structural mistuning. These mentioned factors significantly contribute to the fatigue failure of the steam turbine blades. Low-Pressure (LP) steam turbines experience premature blade and disk failures due to the stress concentrations at the blade root area of its bladed disk. Driven by the problems encountered by the steam power plant electricity generating utilities with regards to steam turbine blades fatigue failure, this study of the mistuned steam turbine blades subjected to variation in blade geometry will be of great significance to the electricity generation industry. A simplified, scaled-down mistuned steam turbine bladed disk model was developed using ABAQUS finite element analysis (FEA) software. Acquisition of the vibration characteristics and steady-state stress response of the disk models was performed through FEA. Thereafter, numerical stress distributions were acquired, and the model was subsequently exported to Fe-Safe software for fatigue life calculations based on centrifugal and harmonic sinusoidal pressure loading. The vibration characteristics and the response of the variation steam turbine geometric blade was conducted. The FEA natural frequencies compared well with published literature of the real steam turbines indicating reliability of the developed FEA model. The study found that the fatigue life is most sensitive to changes in blade length, followed by the width, and then the thickness, in this order. The analytical life cycles and Fe-Safe software shows the percentage difference of less than 4.86%. This concludes that the developed numerical methodology can be used for real-life mistuned steam turbine blades subjected to variations in blade geometry.
