Between Gift-Giving and Accumulation: Peer Review Economies in Psychology
Authors: Kaltenbrunner Wolfgang
Published: April 2024

Peer review is crucial for academic communities to ensure high-quality research, but yields relatively limited formal rewards for the individuals who perform it. Drawing on 39 semi-structured interviews, I study how reviewers for three publishing outlets in psychology experience the tension between community responsibility and various priorities of a more individual kind. Peer review functions as a gift economy, in which authors are expected to repay the work reviewers have invested in their submission by providing peer review for others. This gift economy is embedded in other economies, which are based on the accumulation of various types of capital (reputation, visibility, money etc.). If not kept in check, the competitive dynamics of accumulation tend to undermine the sense of reciprocity required for the continued functioning of peer review. One of the journals studied here is particularly prestigious and operates with a traditional format of pre-publication peer review. The model effectively exploits the tensions between gift giving and accumulation. It exposes reviewers to various undesirable submission practices characteristic of high-impact publishing, but compensates them with a share of its reputation that reviewers can use to advance their own careers. The other two publishing outlets are based on not-for-profit business models and feature elements such as open peer review, portable reviews, and registered reports. Reviewers can thereby more easily see their work as something akin to co-authorship. This alleviates tensions between gift giving and the various encompassing economies, contributing to the sustainability of the respective peer review systems.

Research question
The detection of single chest compressions (CCs) in defibrillator records is crucial to evaluate CPR quality parameters like longest pause duration.1 Currently, defibrillators detect CCs automatically and provide performance feedback via their proprietary software. While some manufacturers (e.g. Stryker) report the accuracy of their CC detection algorithm and allow to manually revise the automatically detected CCs to improve accuracy, others (e.g. ZOLL) do not offer this option.2 Recent works further suggest that using automatically detected CCs without revision or other open source methods is sufficient to compute quality markers.3,4 We aim to compare the accuracy of the automatic CC detection of two defibrillators.
Methodology
131 defibrillator recordings from ZOLL’s X-Series devices with an applied feedback sensor and 70 recordings of Stryker’s LIFEPAK 15 devices were exported. ZOLL detects CC based on accelerometry data from its CC feedback sensor, while Stryker uses the thoracic impedance signal. Each set of recordings was annotated by a single annotator by adding missing CCs and deleting excess CCs, forming a ground truth. The results are reported as median, (10th percentile, 90th percentile) and were tested on statistical significance with a Mann-Whitney U test.
Results
Per case, the device by ZOLL detects in median 99.6, (97.8,99.9) % of all CCs correctly. 0.4, (0.1,2.3) % are deleted and 0.4, (0.1,2.3) % are added during the annotation process. For Stryker’s LIFEPAK 15 the respective numbers are: correctly detected: 96.7, (81.5,99.2) %, deleted: 1.8, (0.2,10.9) %, added: 3.3, (.8,18.5) %. The difference between the correctly identified CCs is significant (p<0.0001). The distribution of missing and excess CCs for all cases is shown in Figure 1.
Interpretation
It appears that ZOLL’s CC detection via an accelerometry based feedback sensor is more accurate than Stryker’s method using thoracic impedance. However, Stryker’s accuracy exceeds 95% as well, providing a reasonably reliable basis for CPR quality marker calculations.

Customer Satisfaction of Service Quality: Assessing Mobile Banking Practices
Authors: Adhikari Ujjwal , Gyawali Santosh
Published: April 2024

This study aims to examine the impact of mobile banking service quality on customer satisfaction. The research seeks to determine whether improvements in service quality lead to higher levels of customer satisfaction. Data for this study were collected through a descriptive research approach, using a structured questionnaire with close-ended questions. The survey was conducted among mobile banking users in Kapilvastu, Nepal. The statistical analysis involved employing the Chi-square test to identify associations between variables and the Mann-Whitney U test to explore the relationship of independent variables with satisfaction categories (i.e., satisfied and unsatisfied). Notably, each relationship between the variables was found to be statistically significant. The findings of this paper demonstrate that in the context of Nepal, customers indeed experience increased satisfaction with mobile banking services. In addition to creating new value for both users and providers, the digital transformation in the banking sector also raises important questions about how practices are transformed in response to these advancements. This study sheds light on the satisfaction levels of customers using mobile banking services in the Nepalese context, highlighting the positive impact of these services on customer satisfaction.
Prinsip Itikad Baik Terhadap Merek MS Glow
Authors: Rachman Taslim Abd. , Alauddin Rusdin , Alwan Sultan
Published: April 2024

Legal protection is an important aspect that needs to be considered in the controversy between MS Glow and PS Glow trademarks. PT Kosmetika Global Indonesia, the MS Glow brand holder that has registered its brand with the Director General of Intellectual Property Rights, requires adequate legal protection. The public sees that the products of the MS Glow brand are better known than the products of the PS Glow brand, and there is a view that PS Glow is trying to hijack the popularity of MS Glow. Through normative juridical legal research, it was found that in the context of the principle of good faith, MS Glow is entitled to legal protection as a brand owner. The brand owner has the exclusive right to the use of its brand and the government is responsible for ensuring this protection. The judge's decision in the dispute between the MS Glow and PS Glow trademarks (Decision Number 2/Pdt.Sus.HKI/Merek/2022/PN.Niaga.Sby) has fulfilled the principle of legal certainty. The judge refers to Law Number 20 Year 2016 on Trademark Registration and Geographical Indications as well as the principle of "first to file". However, the decision has not fully reflected justice and expediency. In the context of trademark registration, the "first to file" principle needs to be evaluated by the government to make it fairer. The lengthy trademark registration process must pay close attention to every detail, the Director General of IPR must be more active in socializing Law Number 20 Year 2016, including the principle of "first to file" to the public so that understanding of the trademark and the registration process becomes better.

Published: April 2024

On Monday, 7 February 2022, five accent coaches gathered on Zoom for a round table discussion about accent training for racialized actors. Eric Armstrong, a professor at York University’s Department of Theatre and Performance, had invited the four guest accent/language coaches to discuss the needs of actors-in-training from Indigenous, Black, Asian, Latinx, and other communities. The coaches had all served as guest teachers for the racialized students in Armstrong’s fourth-year BFA accents class. The panellists shared their thoughts with the audience of roughly 135 on what can be done to make the teaching/learning environment both safe and effective for racialized students, and how we can build greater capacity, so that there are more coaches/teachers from diverse backgrounds in education and the industry.
Transformational Voice Work: Using Theatre-Based Vocal Practice to Support Gender-Diverse Voices
Authors: MacFarlane Jane
Published: April 2024

As a voice coach and teacher, Jane MacFarlane guides actors to a greater understanding of how their voice works, to reveal a character that is rooted in truth and believability. The foundation of the work she does is based on Kristin Linklater’s Freeing the Natural Voice, which identifies habits and patterns of tension in the body that can limit the range of our voices and employs techniques to access the fullness and richness of the vocal qualities we are born possessing. A few years ago, MacFarlane was approached by a colleague who was transitioning and wanted to know if voice work could help her find a vocal quality that affirmed her gender. They began crafting a progression through the voice work that helped her find a voice that felt organic and true to who she really is. Through working with her on her journey, MacFarlane became associated with Skipping Stone, a transgender support organization in Calgary. Together, they began to offer online classes that were based on the work MacFarlane does with theatre practice and applied it to the needs of the transgender community. This article outlines the process of the eight-week progression for vocal feminization through Skipping Stone.
The Waves
Authors: Quigley Laura
Published: April 2024

In August 2018, there was a female orca who carried her dead calf to the surface of the Pacific Ocean for seventeen days. This kind of behavior had never before been documented. When the orca needed to feed or rest, her pod helped her carry the burden. During this time, the pod travelled more than 1,600 kilometres with the dead calf. Researchers say the orcas were in mourning and called this time their ‘Tour of Grief.’ Orcas are enormous mammals with the capacity to feel deep emotion. To Laura Quigley, this story speaks to the enormity of a mother’s heart and her fierce strength. It also speaks to the bond of the pod and their instinct to support one another, especially in the darkest moments. When Quigley gave birth to her second baby, she was struck by how isolated she felt. She was away from colleagues and many of her friends, and she lived far from her family because of her work. In speaking with so many mothers since writing this play, she understands that she was not alone in this feeling of segregation. As new mothers, we are without pods. The Waves dives into under-represented territory: loss of identity in motherhood, postpartum depression, and the rebuilding of self after giving birth. The text is poetic, raw, and urgent and explores ways the human voice can initiate understanding and connection between performer and audience, between humans. In this way, the text contains a detailed description of vocal sounds that depart from language, invoking the performer to explore relationship and communication beyond the conventions of speech and silence.

Authors: Molina García-Pardo José María , Pascual García Juan , Martínez Inglés María Teresa
Published: April 2024

Este libro presenta una colección de problemas relacionados con los sistemas y servicios de telecomunicación que se estudian en las Escuelas de Ingeniería de Telecomunicación. Todos los problemas se explican detalladamente, utilizando las fórmulas y figuras necesarias para ayudar a la compresión de cada uno de ellos. Esta colección de problemas se ha estructurado en las siguientes partes: Niveles, Tráfico, Medios de transmisión en línea, Ruido, Comunicaciones móviles y Radioenlaces. Esta lista se completa con un capítulo denominado Problemas Generales en el que se incorporan aquellos problemas más complejos que incluyen varias temáticas incluidas en los capítulos anteriores. En las dos primeras partes del libro se tratan materias básicas en el estudio de cualquier sistema de telecomunicaciones. Así, en la primera parte se hallan los problemas relacionados con la utilización de unidades y magnitudes en escala logarítmica. El manejo de estas unidades y magnitudes es fundamental para el diseño y comprensión de cualquier sistema de telecomunicaciones. En la segunda parte del libro se presentan los problemas relacionados con el estudio del tráfico de telecomunicaciones. Este estudio nos permitirá dimensionar de forma adecuada los servicios que se proporcionan en los sistemas de telecomunicación. Así, se aprende a calcular el número de canales necesario para satisfacer una cierta demanda de tráfico con una calidad predeterminada. Las dos siguientes partes del libro se refieren a aspectos más concretos de los sistemas de telecomunicaciones: en la tercera parte se hallan los problemas relacionados con el estudio y análisis del ruido en sistemas de telecomunicaciones y en la cuarta parte se encuentran problemas donde se calculan los parámetros primarios de un cable. Dichos parámetros son la resistencia, inductancia o capacitancia por unidad de longitud de un cable a partir de su geometría y de las características de los materiales que se han empleado en su fabricación (permitividad, conductividad, etc.), y se relacionan con los parámetros secundarios (impedancia característica, atenuación,…) que son los que se suelen utilizar a la hora de planificar, por ejemplo, la instalación de un sistema de televisión por cable. En la quinta y sexta partes del libro se estudian dos sistemas reales de telecomunicaciones. La quinta parte se centra en la planificación de sistemas de comunicaciones móviles, y se revisan, por tanto, conceptos como el de la cobertura radioeléctrica y la planificación celular. En la sexta parte, se presentan problemas relacionados con las radiocomunicaciones punto a punto. Estos enlaces permiten en la actualidad la transmisión de gran volumen de datos entre dos puntos vía radio. Finalmente, en la séptima parte se encuentran los problemas cuya temática es general y no se ha podido asignar en los capítulos anteriores de forma única.

Statement of the problem in a general form. Modernization of medium- and high-speed diesel engines at the current stage is reduced to increasing their energy efficiency with simultaneous strengthening of environmental requirements to combat global warming. This process involves not only a change in the structure and technical characteristics of vehicles, but also a transition to the use of alternative types of fuel. In our paper, we explore the key technical aspects of this transition, including fuel systems and their adaptation to the new requirements of today's medium- and highspeed diesel engines. The results of our research will reveal important information about the improvement of diesel fuel systems, contributing to the improvement of their operational efficiency and compliance with the new standards.

Aim: The aim of this study is to find the Effectiveness of planned teaching program (PTP) on self-care for patients with diabetes mellitus in a selected community at Tumkur.Materials and Methods: The investigation was quantitative. This study used a non-equivalent control group quasi-experimental design. The study took place at Kaivara. This study includes all Kaivara diabetics. Data were collected from 30 diabetics. This study used purposive sampling methods. Data analysis makes use of both inferential (paired and unpaired “t” tests) and descriptive (mean, standard deviation, frequency, and percentage) statistics.Result: Group I patients had pre- and post-test knowledge scores of 18–60 and 84–101. For Group I, the mean knowledge score after the test (93.67) was higher than the mean score before the test (33.8). The “t” value for Group I (“t” = 22.10) demonstrated a notable change, demonstrating PTP increased diabetic patients’ understanding. Group I patients’ self-care practice scores also changed significantly. Group I patients’ pre-test and post-test self-care practice scores were 22–56 and 63–75. Mean post-test score for self-care (70.53) was greater than pre-test. The Group I “t” value (16.19) demonstrated a significant difference, demonstrating that PTP increases diabetes mellitus patients’ self-care practices. The mean post-test knowledge score on frequent check-ups, exercise, and food (97, 98.92, and 98.38) was significantly greater than the score on the pre-test following PTP. The mean percentage of self-care practice score for medications (96.67) and skin care (99.13) increased significantly for Group I.Conclusion: The experimental and control groups had substantial differences in post-test self-care and knowledge scores, proving that individual-planned teaching program work

Тобто, було приділено недостатньо уваги питанням фізичного виховання осіб із відхиленням у стані здоров'я. Зі спеціальності 017 «Фізична культура і спорт» з 2020 р. здійснювались дослідження за напрямками: підготовка спортсменів, види спорту, фітнес і рекреація, фізична підготовка школярів, студентів, військових. Хоча в останні роки зменшилась кількість праць із фізичного виховання школярів та студентів, але звертається більша увага на оздоровчий фітнес та рекреацію.

Обґрунтовано потребу вдосконалення змісту наукових досліджень на сучасному етапі, як важливої передумови реформування сфери фізичної культури і спорту в Україні. Ситуація війни передбачає зміщення акценту на фізичну підготовку молоді, яка була б готова до оборони України, їх патріотичне виховання під час фізичного виховання та занять спортом.

Aurea mediocritas: Hirngespinst oder Ideal? Zum Spannungsverhältnis von Arbeit und Muße im Frankreich der Frühen Neuzeit
Authors: Stenger Gerhardt
Published: April 2024

La découverte du Nouveau Monde a popularisé le mythe du ’bon sauvage‘. Réactivant l'Age d'or mythique des Anciens, Vespucci et Montaigne décrivent la vie des sauvages plongée dans l'oisiveté. Mais la ’civilisation‘ est
née du travail et de l'effort: tout comme chez Ovide les hommes n'accèdent à l'humanité que lorsqu'ils sont obligés de pourvoir à leur subsistance. Au XVIII e siècle, on estime avec Voltaire que »l'homme est né pour travailler«.
Mais le mythe du bon sauvage indolent et oisif n'a pas dit son dernier mot: il réapparaît chez Rousseau sous la figure de l'homme naturel et, de manière plus nuancée, dans le Supplément au Voyage de Bougainville de Diderot où un vieillard tahitien
lance au visiteur européen: »permets à des êtres sensés de s'arrêter, lorsqu'ils n'auraient à obtenir, de la continuité de leurs pénibles efforts, que des biens imaginaires«.
Ochrona krytycznej infrastruktury satelitarnej i jej znaczenie dla globalnego bezpieczeństwa. Wybrane aspekty
Authors: Mazurek Witold
Published: April 2024

W lipcu 2018 r. podczas szczytu w Brukseli przywódcy państw NATO uznali, że przestrzeń kosmiczna jest dynamicznym i szybko rozwijającym się obszarem posiadającym niebagatelne znaczenie dla wpólnej postawy Sojuszu w zakresie odstraszania i obrony. Zgodzili się wówczas opracować nadrzędną politykę kosmiczną NATO, co uczyniono niecały rok później. W grudniu 2019 r. uznano przestrzeń kosmiczną za nową domenę operacyjną (obok przestrzeni powietrznej, lądowej, morskiej i cyberprzestrzeni). Natychmiast pojawiły się spekulacje, z których wynikało, że owa fala aktywności kosmicznej NATO została wywołana inicjatywą prezydenta Donalda Trumpa zmierzającą do utworzenia Sił Kosmicznych Stanów Zjednoczonych (USSF). W rzeczywistości były to jednak przemyślane decyzje aliantów poprzedzone latami skrupulatnych badań oraz rozmów.
Pod względem bezpieczeństwa przestrzeń kosmiczna nie jest jednak „nowa”, bowiem już od początku Zimnej Wojny pozostaje ściśle związana przede wszystkim z odstraszaniem nuklearnym. Technologia międzykontynentalnych pocisków balistycznych (ICBM) była niezbędna zarówno dla wyścigu nuklearnego, jak i kosmicznego. Kosmos stał się zatem areną, na której rywalizacja pomiędzy Związkiem Radzieckim a Stanami Zjednoczonymi była najbardziej spektakularna, a przy tym niezwykle pokojowa.

The automatic speech recognition helps to achieve today’s demands such as flexibility in patient care, efficiency, medical records. ASR allows more effective use and combination of process management devices and systems. Because speech interaction is contactless, they can be seamlessly combined into a current hardware environment. This paper presents the phonetic system that implemented to improve the automatic speech recognition with higher accuracy for increasing performance. The system obtains input speech by a mic then works on the tried speech to recognize the spoken word. After that, it passes the ensuing text to the HMM classifier. The HMM classifier compares occurrence of the accredited word with probability map. The word with the highest probability of occurrence gets selected. It then substitutes accredited word with this utterance; this process is carried out for the entire accredited text. The phonetic system directly obtains and translates speech to text by providing 8% improvement in the accuracy of the system. Smart text independent multi-lingual SMS system is developed using phonetic system, which allows the user to convert their voice into text and send message. STIM SMS system can offer a very spirited substitute to traditional keyboard.
Anomaly detection in Smart Traffic Light system using blockchain: Securing through proof of stake and machine learning
Authors: Sharma Shamneesh , Mishra Nidhi
Published: April 2024

The Smart Traffic Light system plays a crucial role in smart cities, contributing significantly to enhancing the overall urban living standards, supporting sustainable practices, assuring public safety, and optimizing operational efficiency. Smart lighting systems leverage advanced technology such as the Internet of Things (IoT), data analytics, and networking to construct a complex and flexible lighting infrastructure. Anomalies within the context of a Smart Light system’s data pertain to patterns, events, or behaviors that are unexpected or uncommon, displaying a considerable deviation from the system’s typical operational state. The distributed and tamper-resistant ledger of blockchain technology renders it well-suited for maintaining an open and immutable record of data and events pertaining to smart lighting systems. The integration of blockchain technology and anomaly detection techniques enables the establishment of a resilient and reliable smart lighting system. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the application of the Isolation Forest algorithm for anomaly detection and its enhancement through the implementation of Proof of Stake for enhanced security measures. The Isolation Forest algorithm is utilized for anomaly prediction and evaluation of accuracy and precision. This is achieved by employing synthetic ground truth labels. Subsequently, the non-anomalous data is incorporated into the system as blocks using blockchain technology. The experimentation involves the use of synthetic numerical data derived from a dataset accessible on Kaggle. This process is conducted in two distinct phases. The first phase focuses on the analysis of synthetic numerical data, specifically targeting the identification of anomalies, prior to the implementation of blockchain technology. In the second phase, the same technique is applied to the synthetic numerical data following the integration of blockchain technology. Various machine learning (ML) models were utilized to analyze the data, resulting in improved accuracy from 48% to 94%, as evidenced by the validation of the obtained results. The empirical results indicate that the utilization of blockchain technology in data processing leads to an improvement in accuracy. Furthermore, the random forest algorithm exhibits robust performance when integrated with blockchain technology.

Authors: Li Qing
Published: April 2024

This work presents the application of interactive virtual reality (IVR) technology in the preservation and presentation of cultural heritage (CH) for China’s Grand Canal. The Grand Canal is a historical engineering marvel and an icon in Chinese cultural and economic development. This work addresses the need for the enhancement of traditional methods for CH education and preservation through immersive and interactive experiences. In this study, an IVR system is developed that is tailored to represent China’s Grand Canal with the objective of providing users with historical accuracy and better engagement. The IVR experience is designed based on core user experience (UX) principles to maintain usability, accessibility, and engagement. Key features of the model include panoramic interactions, higher participation, and realistic representations through better graphic rendering and 3-D modelling. A guided tour algorithm was employed for personalized and adaptive UX to increase user satisfaction. The findings found after the IVR implementation through the sourced feedback reveal that the IVR system has improved user engagement, comprehension, satisfaction, and immersion compared to traditional touring methods. The statistical analysis, including comparative analysis, cross-tabulation, and correlation tests, supported these conclusions.

Published: April 2024

Agriculture remains a key branch of the economy, ensuring food security and the production of important types of raw materials, but due to the fact that predictive assessments demonstrate the negative impact of climate change on the yield of agricultural crops, there is a need to modernize existing models of agricultural production and improve methods of managing agricultural systems with taking into account climate change. The issues of optimization of obtaining high productivity of potatoes, in certain regions, should first of all be aimed at the rational use of natural and climatic conditions of the year, with the aim of timely revision of the cultivation technology, which would correspond to the most complete realization of the agro-climatic potential of the research area, namely the Western Forest-Steppe. Solving this task depends on the degree of study of the interaction and interdependence of the influence of natural and climatic conditions on the processes of formation of yield and quality of potatoes. The results of the analysis of weather and climate conditions in the Western Forest-Steppe during 2010-2023 and their impact on the yield of early-ripening potato varieties are presented. It was investigated that the meteorological conditions in some years fluctuated sharply in comparison both to previous years and to the average long-term data. This is especially true about the total amount of precipitation and its distribution during the potato growing season, because with regard to the dynamics of the temperature regime, as already noted, a significant increase has been observed. Despite this during the potato growing season the temperature and water conditions provided favorable conditions for obtaining a high yield of early-ripening potato varieties. The presented results of the analysis of weather and climate conditions in the Western Forest-Steppe during 2010-2023 indicate a positive effect on the yield of potato varieties of the early-ripening group. It was established that the weather and climatic conditions of the research area favor the cultivation of potato varieties of the early-ripening group, and the yield compared to the standard variety increased by 0.9-5.2 t/ha. The conducted analysis makes it possible to select the most productive potato varieties of the early-ripening group, which are the most optimal for cultivation in the conditions of the Western Forest-Steppe of Ukraine as well as further study and improvement regarding the formation of their productivity

The analysis of milk productivity indicators of cows of the western inbred type of the Ukrainian black-spotted dairy breed was carried out, depending on the milk productivity level of their mothers. Certain features of the influence of maternal and paternal heredity on milk yield, milk fat content, reproductive capacity and duration of economic use of cows have been established. First-born cows, which come from mothers of the modal class (milk yield for 305 days of lactation in the range of 3411–5129 kg) and mothers from the group of plus variants (milk yield more than 5129 kg) prevailed in terms of the weight of peers from mothers from the group of minus variants (milk yield less than 3411 kg) by 20 % and 25 %, respectively. In the following age periods (second to fifth), due to the culling of low-yielding animals, the differences in milk yield between the cows of the experimental groups are evened out. The rate of elimination from the main herd of cows from plus-variant mothers is significantly higher than that of cows of other groups. By the fifth lactation, 91.2 % of the initial herd dropped out for various reasons, in other groups this figure was 63–67 %. Cows from the minus-variants group had the most fatty milk, the fat content in the milk during the first three lactations was 0.05–0.09 percent higher than that of other groups. The significant influence of the genotype of the parents on the level of milk yield for 305 days, the fat content in milk and the duration of the service period after the first calving in the whole herd, as well as on milk yield and the duration of the service period in the modal class and on the duration of the service period in the minus group were established
