Plumpang is a national vital object surrounded by residential areas in its vicinity. This study aims to identify buffer zones at the Pertamina Plumpang BBM Depot. The method used in this research is Spatio Temporal Analysis with secondary data from the land-use map of Jakarta, Google Earth imagery from 2002 to 2022, and Landsat 4 imagery from 1990. The results show that at distances of 50 meters, 50-100 meters, and 100-250 meters, there are 503, 870, and 2554 buildings, respectively. Furthermore, these buildings are predominantly very dense residential areas. Due to the highly concentrated population and the proximity to the depot, the area faces a high risk of fire disasters given the flammable nature of the fuel. The proximity of the settlement to the fuel depot has a direct correlation with the heightened risk of a fire disaster. The buffer zone distance used in the range of 50 - 100 meters to ensure the safety of the population from potential fire disasters. The designated buffer zone can be effectively transformed into a hydrological flow or water channel serving as a separator and barrier between the fuel depot and residential areas.

This empirical research study examines the effect of Parker’s (2008) team player styles on followership behavior. While most research focuses on the team leader, most of the work accomplishments are attributed to the team players on the team. Of the four team player styles, only one, contributor significantly increases followership behavior. However, it does not add enough to raise the followership behavior into the exemplary range. Discussion of the findings is provided coupled with a post hoc analysis and ideas for future research.
Academic Ability Development for Academic Master’s Students: Predicaments and Pathways
Authors: Zhong Xiaoyu , Liu Yuxuan
Published: May 2024

The development of academic ability is an integral component of the all-encompassing growth of academic master’s students and the cultivation of talent in higher education. Nevertheless, the current developmental trajectory of academic ability among academic master’s students is beset by numerous challenges. This study, grounded in the perspective of symbolic interactionism and employing a qualitative research methodology, examines the development of academic ability. Sixteen academic master’s students from the Faculty of Education at Beijing Normal University serve as case subjects. The research reveals that, during the development of academic ability, academic master’s students establish a system of meaning comprehension involving pinpointing, orienting, and positioning. This system is founded on their perceptions and understanding of the essence and attainability of academic ability, the chain of meaning related to the purpose of academic pursuits or the benefits they yield, and the assessment system they use to judge their suitability for academic endeavors. Building upon these findings, this study elucidates potential pathways to overcome these predicaments, considering both academic self-help and academic scaffolding.

Crafting Linguistic Labyrinths: Wordplay in David Tod Roy’s Thick Translation of Jin Ping Mei
Authors: Li Jia
Published: May 2024

Jin Ping Mei, a novel vividly portraying the daily lives of common people, is characterized by various forms of wordplay deeply rooted in Chinese linguistic and cultural contexts. This paper scrutinizes David Tod Roy’s English translation of Jin Ping Mei, titled “The Plum in the Golden Vase or, Chin P’ing Mei”, which adeptly captures the linguistic and cultural nuances of the original while crystalizing his extensive research through the strategy of thick translation. Through a detailed analysis of Roy’s treatment of wordplay in Jin Ping Mei, this study delves into the efficacy of thick translation as a pivotal approach in preserving and conveying the authentic rhetorical features of the novel. It is discerned that the paratextual elements within Roy’s translation play a crucial role in both the comprehension and preservation of wordplay as integral rhetorical elements of the original text. This not only ensures the readability and aesthetic appeal of the translation per se but also enhances its fidelity in conveying the linguistic and cultural authenticity of the source material.
Optimal modeling of nonlinear systems Method of variable injections
Authors: Torokhti Anatoli , Soto-Quiros Juan Pablo
Published: May 2024

Our work addresses a development and justification of the new approach to the modeling of nonlinear systems. Let $\f$ be an unknown input-output map of the system with a random input and output $\y$ and $\x$, respectively. It is assumed that $\y$ and $\x$ are available and covariance matrices formed from $\y$ and $\x$ are known. We determine a model of $\f$ so that an associated error is minimized. To this end, the model $\ttt_p$ is constructed as a sum of $p+1$ particular parts, in the form $\ttt_p (\y) = \sum_{j=0}^{p}G_j H_j Q_j(\vv_j)$ where $G_j$ and $ H_j$, for $j=0,\ldots, p$, are matrices to be determined, and $\vv_j$, for $j=1,\ldots,p$, is a special random vector called the injection. We denote $\vv_0=\y$. Injections $\vv_1,\ldots, \vv_p$ are aimed to diminish the error associated with the proposed model $\ttt_p$. Further, $Q_j$ is a special transform aimed to facilitate the numerical realization of model $\ttt_p$. It is determined in the way allowing us to optimally determine $G_j$ and $ H_j$ as a solution of $p+1$ separate error minimization problems which are simpler than the original minimization problem. The empirical determination of injections $\vv_1,\ldots, \vv_p$ is considered. The proposed method has several degrees of freedom to diminish the associated error. They are `degree' $p$ of $\ttt_p$, choice of matrices $G_0, H_0, \ldots,$ $G_p, H_p$, dimensions of matrices $G_0, H_0, \ldots,$ $G_p, H_p$ and injections $\vv_1,\ldots, \vv_p$, respectively. Four numerical examples are provided. At the end, the open problem is formulated.

Published: May 2024

Abstract: This paper presents the concept, Traffic Monitroting and signal controlling using RFID technology to prioritize ambulance passage during emergencies. Traffic lights are crucial for managing the flow of vehicles on the road. In particular, when there are emergencies, the traffic situation is getting worse. Emergency vehicles find it challenging to cross busy road during periods of traffic congestion. A medical emergency vehicles like ambulances, or victims of accidents must be transferred to it as soon as possible. They could be late for rescue efforts because of traffic signals. Identification of emergency vehicles, control of traffic lights, and provision of a clear path for their travel are the objectives of our paper. The main element of this system that implements the control system is radio frequency Identification (RFID). Through RFID detection, the system identifies the presence of an ambulance approaching any lane and promptly initiates a sequence wherein traffic lights for the ambulance's intended lane turn green, while simultaneously halting traffic flow in other lanes. By integrating RFID technology into the traffic management infrastructure, the prototype ensures swift and efficient response to emergency situations, minimizing delays in medical assistance. The system's intelligent algorithm enables it to override regular traffic light patterns, granting immediate passage to ambulances without compromising safety or causing disruptions to traffic flow in adjacent lanes. This approach enhances emergency response capabilities, optimizing the delivery of critical healthcare services and potentially saving lives in urgent medical situations. The system's ability to dynamically adapt traffic signals based on real time ambulance detection underscores its potential to revolutionize emergency response protocols, contributing to enhanced public safety and well-being in densely populated urban areas. The RFID tag helps to verify that emergency vehicles The emergency vehicle can clear all junctions without wasting time at the traffic signals this keeps happening until the ambulance arrives at its destination.

Changes in cognitive function are common sequelae following a stroke. These alterations represent a significant demand for rehabilitation services that have used Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) to improve motor functions and mood in post-stroke patients. In addition to its non-invasive nature, there is evidence that this technique positively alters cognitive processes. This study aimed to investigate the effect of TMS on the cognition of patients who have suffered a stroke. The study was assessed and approved by the Ethics Committee under protocol 54977216.3.0000.5078. This was an observational, prospective, cross-sectional study involving 30 patients aged between 24 and 74 who had a stroke. Participants were selected from the Neuromodulation Service at a Specialized Rehabilitation Centre. All participants were assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA), a cognitive screening to detect mild cognitive impairment, and which has been used in the context of stroke and other acquired injuries. The patients underwent a TMS protocol of 20-minute sessions twice a week. The total scores obtained by the participants in the MOCA test at previous and post-intervention 19.43±3.71 and 21.30±4.25 demonstrated a significant improvement. We also observed an improvement in the attention, memory, and naming subtests: 3.20±1.49; 2.10±1.63; 2.10±1.63 in contrast to 3.77±1.48; 2.97±1.88; 2.67±0.61 in the previous and post-intervention periods, respectively (p <0.05). These results suggest that TMS can improve general cognitive performance, particularly in attention, memory, and naming tasks in post-stroke patients.

Demystifying the Role of Governance Quality and Fiscal Space on Nonperforming Loans in Zimbabwe
Authors: Katuka Blessing , Mudzingiri Calvin , Vengesai Edson
Published: May 2024

The paper examines the effects of governance quality and fiscal space on non-performing loans (NPLs) in Zimbabwe. We estimated pooled ordinary least squares (OLS) and quadratic regressions with panel-corrected standard errors (PCSE) and Driscoll-Kraay standard errors using the full dollarisation era dataset for 13 banks from 2009 to 2017. We noted that all the governance indicators are on average negative (bad) and that improvement in the rule of law, political stability and control of corruption stimulates reduction in NPLs if the indicators improve beyond -1.654, -0.876 and -1.361, respectively. More interestingly, the results revealed that an improvement in the interaction terms of political stability and control of corruption with rule of law, governance index and voice and accountability significantly reduces NPLs, which is new empirical evidence in the literature. Regarding fiscal space, we find evidence that fiscal balance positively and significantly affects NPLs. We contribute to the literature by providing new evidence on the role of governance quality in NPLs formation in Zimbabwe, especially when corruption and political stability interact with all governance indicators. We recommend that the Zimbabwean government improve political stability, control of corruption, voice and accountability and the rule of law to reduce NPLs.
CEO Power and ESG Performance: The Mediating Role of Managerial Risk-Taking
Authors: Lee Ai-Xin , Hooy Chee-Wooi
Published: May 2024

Business sustainability calls for responsibility in the context of the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) agenda. According to the upper echelons’ theory, a firm’s activities and business outcomes are charted by top management. However, how the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) balances the firm’s profit maximisation objectives while serving the ESG agenda remains unexplored. Therefore, this study takes a holistic approach to examine how CEO power affects the business sustainability of a firm through managerial risk-taking. We augment the upper echelons theory of Hambrick and Mason (1984) by incorporating the CEO power framework of Finkelstein (1992) with the managerial risk-taking framework of Hoskisson et al. (2017). We find that CEO power is associated with greater managerial risk-taking and poorer business sustainability. The ownership power, expert power and prestige power of the CEO are important in explaining the managerial risk-taking and firm sustainability. Specifically, financial leverage and research and development (R&D) expenses partially mediate CEO power in explaining a firm’s ESG performance.
APPLICATION OF BENTHIC MACROINVERTEBRATES AS POTENTIAL BIO-INDICATORS IN MALAYSIAN'S RIVERS: GAP AND BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSES
Authors: Dilani Hettige Nadeesha , Hashim Rohasliney , Kutty Ahmad Abas
Published: May 2024

The literature on reliable indices, suitable bio-indicators, taxonomic level, frequency of measurements, and replications on benthic macroinvertebrates remains scarce in Malaysia. In addition, no review study was conducted using bibliometric analysis related to this discipline. Thus, this review aimed at gap and bibliometric analysis of publications on benthic macroinvertebrates as potential biological indicators. Sixty-six relevant scientific research papers from 2011 to 2022 were selected from the different databases. Then, descriptive and inferential statistical analyses were performed to assess the most reliable potential bio-indicators for river assessment and monitoring. Visualized statistics regarding bibliographic coupling analysis of authors, journal proceedings, and organizations were analyzed. The findings revealed that publications on invertebrates had no significant relationship in the last ten years (r = 0.241; p > 0.05). Most publications on macroinvertebrates in Malaysian rivers were found in the Scopus database (53.57%). Therefore, research articles must be published in journals included in the Journal Citation Report (JCR) to improve their quality further. Besides, benthic macroinvertebrates are commonly identified only up to the family level (47%) due to incomplete tropical benthic macroinvertebrates identification keys. As such, using environmental DNA methods with the power of next-generation sequencing has come in handy in bio-indicator species identification. Among the potential bio-indicators found in Malaysian rivers are Chironomidae (9.11%), Baetidae (8.87%), and Hydropsychidae (8.62%). Based on the approaches utilized in analyzing benthic macroinvertebrates as bio-indicators, in-depth research such as bioassay and toxicology tests is necessary to realize the potential bio-indicators fully. Many studies focused on recreational rivers in Peninsular Malaysia. Therefore, research studies would be expanded to urban rivers and rivers in Sabah and Sarawak. Also, to overcome the limitation of the single biotic index, developing a multimetric index to evaluate the water quality by selecting many river basins is essential. Bibliographic analysis showed that the Institute for Tropical Biology and Conservation, Universiti Malaysia Sabah, made the greatest total link strength. The Serangga Journal published the highest number of research articles. Finally, utilizing advanced technologies is recommended to address Malaysia's lack of potential bio-indicator studies.

Colombia tiene dentro de sus compromisos ante la Convención Marco de Naciones Unidas frente al Cambio Climático hacer seguimiento a las inversiones climáticas. El artículo presenta avances y limitaciones metodológicas para analizar las inversiones climáticas utilizando el Sistema CHIP, el cual monitorea y reporta el gasto público de las entidades territoriales. Se propone una clasificación diferenciando rubros de mitigación o adaptación al cambio climático, o ambos, de acuerdo a su atribuabilidad directa (hay 44 categorías), potencial (hay 88 categorías) o indirecta (hay 17 categorías), donde la mayor atrbuabilidad se concentra en el sector agua y saneamiento (36,4%) y protección ambiental (27,3%), mientras que los sectores de salud, educación, finanzas, construcción y turismo no se encontraron inversiones directas. Con el esquema metodológico presentado, es posible la comparabilidad, la precisión, la consistencia, la transparencia, y la generación de reportes estandarizados según e interés del actor a nivel municipal, departamental, nacional e internacional. Asimismo, con base en las barreras encontradas en los casos analizados en algunos municipios del departamento de Risaralda, se proponen nuevos caminos a emprender en procura de mejorar la captura del dato, e registro y la presentación de informes que contribuyan a la toma de decisiones en cambio climático.

Published: May 2024

Diagnostic modeling of voice disorders is important to improve the
efficiency of patient diagnosis. However, due to sample imbalance and
complexity of voice data analysis, basic acoustic features and
traditional machine learning methods are not effective in predicting
voice status. This letter proposes a three-layer ensemble learning model
with two innovations: 1) At the feature level, acoustic features are
expanded using Multilayer Perceptron and SincNet; 2) Structurally, a
tree-based ensemble learning model is proposed that utilizes XGBoost for
feature selection and feature transformation, with LightGBM as the
classifier. Experiments have shown that the proposed method in this
paper outperforms traditional machine learning models.
Impact of Time and Handwashing on Infection Inference of Communicable Diseases: A Comparison between Adults and Preschoolers
Authors: Furumi Fumikazu , Nishio Yumiko
Published: May 2024

This study examined how time and handwashing impact the inferential
process related to infectious disease transmission among adults and
preschoolers. Thirty-eight Japanese adults aged 18–23 years (8 men; 30
women) and 36 Japanese children aged 5–6 years (15 boys; 21 girls)
reported their certainty regarding protagonists’ subsequent infection
and whether handwashing affects infection risk across three scenarios
(same-time, immediately-after, and next-day). Both age groups perceived
a significantly higher likelihood of infection in the same-time
condition than in the other conditions. Preschoolers estimated a lower
likelihood of infection than adults (η = .25). Thus, preschoolers inferred infectious
disease transmission more optimistically than adults. Amidst infectious
disease outbreaks, adults must provide guidance regarding preventive
measures, while being mindful of preschooler’s propensity to
optimistically speculate about contagion.
Reduced inhibition from quadriceps onto soleus after acute quadriceps fatigue suggests Golgi tendon organ contribution to heteronymous inhibition
Authors: Cuadra Cristian , DeBoef Adam , Luong Sarah , Wolf SL , Nichols Richard , Lyle Mark
Published: May 2024

Heteronymous inhibition between lower limb muscles is primarily
attributed to recurrent inhibitory circuits in humans but could also
arise from Golgi tendon organs (GTOs). Distinguishing between recurrent
inhibition and mechanical activation of GTOs is challenging because
their heteronymous effects are both elicited by stimulation of nerves or
a muscle belly above motor threshold. Here, the unique influence of
mechanically activated GTOs was examined by comparing the magnitude of
heteronymous inhibition from quadriceps (Q) muscle belly stimulation
onto ongoing soleus (SOL) EMG at five Q stimulation intensities
(1.5-2.5x motor threshold) before and after an acute bout of
stimulation-induced Q fatigue. Fatigue was used to decrease Q
stimulation evoked force (i.e., decreased GTO activation) despite using
the same pre-fatigue stimulation currents (i.e., same antidromic
recurrent inhibition input). Thus, a decrease in heteronymous inhibition
after Q fatigue and a linear relation between stimulation-evoked torque
and inhibition both before and after fatigue would support mechanical
activation of GTOs as a source of inhibition. A reduction in evoked
torque but no change in inhibition would support recurrent inhibition.
After fatigue, Q stimulation-evoked knee torque, heteronymous inhibition
magnitude, and inhibition duration were significantly decreased for all
stimulation intensities. In addition, heteronymous inhibition magnitude
was linearly related to twitch-evoked knee torque before and after
fatigue. These findings support mechanical activation of GTOs as a
source of heteronymous inhibition along with recurrent inhibition. The
unique patterns of heteronymous inhibition before and after fatigue
across participants suggest the relative contribution of GTOs and
recurrent inhibition may vary across persons.

Objective Technology use in type 1 diabetes (T1D) is impacted by socioeconomic status (SES). This analysis explored relationships between SES, glycemic outcomes and technology use. Research Design and Methods Cross-sectional analysis of HbA1c data from 2822 Australian youth with T1D was undertaken. Residential postcode was used to assign SES based on The Index of Relative Socio-Economic Disadvantage (IRSD). Linear regression models evaluated associations between IRSD quintile, HbA1c and management regimen. Results Insulin pump therapy, continuous glucose monitoring and their concurrent use were associated with lower mean HbA1c across all IRSD quintiles (p<0.001). There was no interaction between technology use and IRSD quintile on HbA1c (p=0.624), reflecting a similar association of lower HbA1c with technology use across all IRSD quintiles. Conclusions Technology use was associated with lower HbA1c across all socioeconomic backgrounds. Socioeconomic disadvantage does not preclude glycemic benefits of diabetes technologies, highlighting the need to remove barriers to technology access.
