Pengujian Efek Fisher:Pengaruh Ekspektasi Inflasi Dan Kegiatan Ekonomi Terhadap Tingkat Bunga Nominal Di Indonesia
Authors: Pratiwi Dian
Published: April 2019

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of inflation and economic activity to nominal rate. A model based on Fisher Effect and used time series data for the period of 2010-2012. The finding suggests that expected inflation and economic activity have significant effect on the nominal rate as dependent variable. As the limitation, the data used in this paper are limited to three years time series data. A more detail analysis would use data more completely. The findings of the study clearly demonstrate the Fisher Effect theory. Keywords: Fisher Effect, Expected Inflation, Economic Activity, Nominal Rate

Living Apart Together as a “Family Form” Among Persons of Retirement Age: The Appropriate Family Response
Authors: Bowman Cynthia Grant
Published: April 2019

52 Family Law Quarterly 1 (2018).This article discusses the phenomenon of “living apart together,” or LAT, among persons of retirement age. LATs are committed couples who maintain separate residences. The article first explores the literature on sexuality and dating among older persons and then discusses social science research done, primarily outside of the U.S., about LAT among persons in older age groups. It then describes what was learned from the author’s own interviews of LATs over the age of 65 about their reasons for living apart, their manner of life, economic arrangements, and mutual caregiving. Based on this research, it reaches a number of conclusions about what the appropriate legal treatment of these couples should be.
Contributorship, Not Authorship: Use CRediT to Indicate Who Did What
Authors: Holcombe Alex O.
Published: April 2019

Participation in the writing or revising of a manuscript is, according to many journal guidelines, necessary to be listed as an author of the resulting article. This is the traditional conception of authorship. But there are good reasons to shift to a contributorship model, under which it is not necessary to contribute to the writing or revision of a manuscript, and all those who make substantial contributions to a project are credited. Many journals and publishers have already taken steps in this direction, and further adoption will have several benefits. This article makes the case for continuing to move down that path. Use of a contributorship model should improve the ability of universities and funders to identify effective individual researchers and improving their ability to identify the right mix of researchers needed to advance modern science. Other benefits should include facilitating the formation of productive collaborations and the creation of important scientific tools and software. The CRediT (Contributor Roles Taxonomy) taxonomy is a machine-readable standard already incorporated into some journal management systems and it allows incremental transition toward contributorship.
Why brain oscillations are improving our understanding of language
Authors: Benítez-Burraco Antonio , Murphy Elliot
Published: April 2019

We review the potential that brain oscillations have for improving our understanding of the processing, evolution and development of natural language. The different ‘grammars’ of brain rhythms can account for different perceptual and cognitive functions, and we argue that this includes language. We aim to address six distinct questions – the What, How, Where, Who, Why, and When questions – pertaining to oscillatory investigations of language. We review how language deficits found in clinical conditions like autism, schizophrenia and dyslexia can be satisfactorily construed in terms of an abnormal, disorder-specific pattern of brain rhythmicity. Lastly, we argue that an eco-evo-devo approach to language is compulsory.

Published: April 2019

Studying groups in their natural contexts can help build understanding of complex organisational behaviours. Guided by the principles of conversation analysis, we discuss some of the dynamics of multidisciplinary teams in cancer care by examining the communication practices used to negotiate levels of participation in their routine work meetings, while considering patient safety implications.Breast, colorectal and gynaecological cancer teams were videoed over 12-weekly meetings encompassing 822 patient-reviews with a cross-section transcribed using Jefferson notation. A low frequency of gaps between speakers (3%) and high frequency of overlaps (24%) and no-gaps-no-overlaps (73%) was found, pointing to fast turn-transitions, secured predominantly with raised pitch and vocalizations. Securing one’s turn to speak in a multi-speaker fast-paced work group setting, such as cancer meetings, can be challenging due to systemic reduction in turn-taking opportunities, hence unequal participation. This may hinder effective communication and open up opportunity for error; an important patient safety implication.
Standing out and Sorting in: Exploring the Role of Racial Composition in Racial Disparities in Special Education
Authors: Fish Rachel
Published: April 2019

Schools differentially sort students into special education by race, though researchers debate the extent to which this is caused by racist school practices versus variation in student need due to other racial inequalities. I test the interaction between school-level racial composition and student-level race as a predictor of special education receipt. I find that as the proportion of White students increases, the risk of lower-status disabilities, such as intellectual disability, increases for Black, Latinx, and Native American students. As the proportion of White students decreases, White students’ risk of higher status disabilities, such as speech/language impairment, increases relative to students of color. Thus, in the context of racial distinctiveness, student race becomes salient to sorting into special education.

Nowadays, online games is the media for interaction with another people in the world. In this game, players are presented in the virtual world. This virtual world displayed on a graph of realism that have various shapes fact as houses, roads, walls, fences, etc. Players in this online game will also be given an avatar of the identity and the realization of the players in the virtual world. Virtual world in the online RPG game certainly require a lot of graphics realism in the viewport windows virtual but certainly not to display the virtual world as a whole. This is because the views of the players who became avatar certainly made equal to the real-world view of the player. In presenting part of the virtual world certainly requires clipping of the map which is a manifestation of the virtual world. Clipping technique used to use Cohen-Sutherland algorithm. This algorithm makes clipping as nine areas where the viewport window will be the main focus in the map and displayed on the screen viewport. This would blur the eight other areas that cannot be seen directly in the viewport. This study provides a view of the same players as in the real world that is played online games can provide a real experience to his players.

Theories and Research Designs Linking Family Behavior and Child Development: A Critical Overview
Authors: Hill Reuben
Published: April 2019

A critique of research and theory, linking family behavior and child development, is offered. The critique faults child psychology as essentially personological, still uni-directional, parent molding child, missing the influence of father and siblings, and the child’s part in shaping his own role casting. Family sociology is found to be equally myopic in its emphasis on the disruptive impacts of child behavior on marital satisfaction and family organization. The contributions of family scholars, however, complement the interests of child psychologists who slight the family contexts of behaviors in favor of the inner life of the developing child. A preview of research foci at the interface of family and child over several decades reveals a shift from descriptive studies of the setting conditions for child development to the parental correlates of parental behavior and on to promising studies of parent-infant-parent interactions and studies of interactive processes of whole families by family oriented psychiatrists and, finally, to the examination by psychological ecologists and sociologists of the impacts of the family’s outer environment on family and child development. Contemporary theories emphasize family adaptation to changing children in polydirectional term from developmental, ecological, and historical perspectives.
Gender and Religious Socialization: Comparisons from Pakistan and the United States
Authors: Nelsen Hart M. , Rizvi Arshad
Published: April 2019

Data from Catholic youths in Karachi, Pakistan and from the United States are analyzed for the effects of parental support and religiosity upon the religiosity of adolescents. Pakistan is more traditional than the United States and, hence, differences by gender in the effect of parental measures on youth would more likely occur in Pakistan than the United States. Comparisons can also be made in the United States by parochial-public school settings, with the parochial setting viewed as more traditional. In the more traditional setting, boys are expected to be especially affected by parental religiosity, while girls are expected to be especially affected by parental support. In the less traditional setting parental religiosity should be the better predictor of religiosity of both boys and girls. The findings support the hypotheses.
“Final say” Measures of Marital Power: Theoretical Critique and Empirical Findings From Five Studies in the United States and India
Authors: Allen Craig M. , Straus Murray A.
Published: April 2019

This study provides a more thorough test of the reliability and validity of the “final say” measure of marital power than has been provided in previous studies, which have been inconclusive in their findings. The reliability and validity of conflict- weighted, importance-weighted and unweighted versions of the “final say” measure are compared, along with husbands’, wives’, and children’s responses. The data base is comprised of 5 samples gathered in the United States and India. The major findings produced through an alpha reliability analysis include : (1) the “final say” measure has cross-cultural validity, (2) weighting by conflict or importance does not influence validity or reliability of the measure, (3) husbands’ and wives’ responses have equivalent levels of validity and (4) older children’s responses are the most reliable, followed by those of wives and finally husbands. The results indicate that the “final say” measure is a more valid and reliable instrument than previous research has suggested.
Child Neglect in Rural Punjabi Families
Authors: Pettigrew Joyce
Published: April 2019

This article discusses the social and economic factors that contribute to in law dependency involving lack of independent access to food and milk is an important feature of child neglect Two case studies are presented of female children who are growing up without adequate milk, both from landless labourers households. In one of these cases the significant variable is the family’s overall poverty but in the second, inter-familial conflict is of equal importance. The data gathered from a medium sized village in the southern Punjab supports the early work of Dhillon and Cowan in the central Punjab that sex related factors in child neglect are especially important in labouring households. But the data otherwise show that a child’s sex does not displace level of income and property ownership as the important variables in child health.
The Family, Socio-Economic Development and Suicide: A 52 Nation Comparative Study
Authors: Conklin George H. , Simpson Miles E.
Published: April 2019

Empirical studies of the family and suicide are few, while comparative studies of family structure and suicide are rare. Past cross-national comparative studies of suicide rates and family variables employ only a few independent variables and a limited number of countries. Using a sample as broadly comparative as possible, we examined Durkheim�s theory of the family and suicide for 52 nations. Sixteen variables are analyzed. Family measures such as divorce are associated with higher rates even after controls for socio-economic differences among the nations of the world. It is suggested that as socio-economic data for the 1980�s becomes generally available for many of the nations of the world, it may be possible to use the data presented here as the basis for a trend analysis of family change, suicide and economic development over time.
Rural Women And The Family: A Study of a Punjabi Village In Pakistan
Authors: Rauf Abdur
Published: April 2019

This paper has examined some important aspects of rural womens life in a village of Pakistan, with special attention to womens inheritance of property, position in authority structure, family eating patterns, the purdah system, womens role in farm operations, and their health and leisure activities. The analysis indicates a considerable gap between general attitudes and practices with respect to womens status in the rural society, and identifies certain structural constraints that have pre- petuated female dependency on men in the family and the larger society. The findings of this study are found consistent with other major studies of rural women in Pakistan.
Mate Selection Values: A Comparison Of Malaysian And United States Student
Authors: Liston Antoinette , Salts Connie J.
Published: April 2019

This study provides a comparison of the mate selection values of a society in which self-selection occurs (USA) and a society in which self-selection is emerging as the preferred choice (Malaysian). The results of a survey, patterned after Hill and Christensens work, showed love to be the most important value for both cultures. A number of attitudinal differences in mate selection values were found between USA men and women which were not present among the Malaysians. The study suggests that these differences may be due to the USA males continued devaluation of mate selection values.
The Effect of Seasonal Maternal Employment on Young Senegalese Children’s Behavior
Authors: Bloch Marianne N.
Published: April 2019

The research describes the effect of seasonal maternal employment on 3-5 year old childrens play and social behavior in one rural village in Senegal. Thirty-one male and female children of employed (n = 18) and unemployed mothers (n = 13) were observed during the course of two seasons: One five month season when the 18 employed women were engaged in seasonal agricultural wage labor near their village, and a subsequent two month unemployment season when both employed and unemployed mothers were back in the village, and were engaged in traditional activities. The results showed that, when mothers were absent due to employment, employed mothers children were more independent and engaged in more high involvement play time; when mothers were back in the village, childrens independent and high involvement activities were less. Children of employed and unemployed mothers seemed to be affected somewhat by the employment of some of the village mothers. In addition, girls appeared to be affected somewhat differently than boys. Cultural- ecological factors that account for this pattern of results are highlighted in the discussion.
Physical Punishment of Children: Sweden and the U.S.A.
Authors: Deley Warren W.
Published: April 2019

Banning corporal punishment in childrearing, as Swedens 1979 law does, has been advocated as an important child abuse preventive. This study explores the relationship between nationality and cultural receptivity to anticorporal punishment legislation, through a questionnaire given in 1981 to nonrandom student samples in two large public universities  one in the western U.S. (n = 365), another in eastern Sweden (n = 132). Americans of both sexes were more likely than Swedes to report they had received physical punishment and physical abuse as children and to oppose legislation prohibiting corporal punishment. However, if such law could be shown to reduce child abuse, a majority of Americans claimed they would then join Swedes in favoring it. Differences by sex, and by religious preference, were not significant. Additional findings and implications are discussed.
Filial Piety in Japan and China: Borrowing, Variation and Significance
Authors: Hsu Francis L. K.
Published: April 2019

Filial piety has been central to Chinese social fabric since ancient times and thoroughly adopted and propagated by the Japanese since the sixth century A.D. However, it was an impediment to the industrial, military and political development of China but not to that of Japan. Our hypothesis is that dissimilarities in kinship structure, and hence in secondary groupings, between the two societies led the content of filial piety to build human relationships differently in the two societies. Support for this hypothesis is found in the difference between tsu or clan in China and dozoku (prevailing in rural areas) and iemoto (prevailing in urban areas) in Japan. Membership and advancement in the Chinese secondary group are restricted to males born and females married into it. Membership and advancement in the Japanese secondary groups are not so confined. Yet the content of filial piety permeates all three. The dozoku, but especially the iemoto, provided the Japanese a larger and firmer infrastructure of human grouping on which to build their modern enterprises whether they be religious, educational, economic, political or military.
What makes good Families: Predictors of Family Welfare in the Philippines
Authors: Pullium Rita M.
Published: April 2019

Aspects of family welfare are related to education, geographic residence, family size, median birth interval, and age at marriage for 446 Filipino women of reproductive age married at least 15 years. Direct interviewing dealt with material welfare, family relationships, health, education, and personality. Results show that mother�s education and family size have styfngest and most consistent predictive value for family welfare. Beyond this, several specific relationships of significance are observed, e.g. better spouse relations for rural residents.

Economic Systems and Rates of Polygyny
Authors: Lee Gary R. , Whitbeck Les B.
Published: April 2019

This paper examines the roles of primary subsistence base and women's contributions to food production in the etiology of polygyny. Cross-cultural data from the Ethonographic Atlas are employed. Polygyny is differentiated into categories of absent (monogamy only), occasional (less than 20% of all marriages), and frequent (20% or more of all marriages).

The results show that polygyny is very likely to be allowed, but infrequently practiced, in exploitative and incipient agriculture economies. It is most likely to be widespread in herding and extensive agriculture economies, but decreases in" frequency as agricultural technology develops further. These patterns are explained by variation in the roles of men and women in subsistence production.in combination with variation in the labor-intensiveness of subsistence activities.
Division of Household Work Between Partners: A Comparison of Black and White Couples
Authors: Kamo Yoshinori , Cohen Ellen L.
Published: April 2019

Using data from National Survey of Families and Households, division of household work by married/cohabiting partners is analyzed for White and Black couples. Black couples are found to be more egalitarian than their White counterparts in their performance of household work. When work hours for pay and household work hours are combined, however, Black women are found to be most disadvantaged. The explanatory power of the theoretical model utilizing each partner’s resource contribution, time availability, and gender-role attitude is found limited for White couples and even more so for Black couples. Reasons for limited explanatory power of the model are discussed, emphasizing a symbolic meaning of performing household work for women and a possible inadequacy of individualistic assumptions made in this study as well as in many other studies of family research.
Intersections of Race, Class, Gender, and Nation: Some Implications for Black Family Studies
Authors: Collins Patricia Hill
Published: April 2019

This article explores how recent theoretical developments in viewing race, social class, gender, and nation as dimensions of interlocking systems of oppression might suggest new directions for Black family studies. Traditional social science approaches typically treat race, class, gender, and nationality as descriptive variables attached to individuals who are then reinserted into existing theoretical models on the family. In contrast, intersectional approaches view institutionalized racism, social class relations, gender inequalities, and nationalism expressed on both sides of state power as analytical constructs that explain family organization in general, and Black family organization in particular. By exploring three such intersections, namely those of race and class, of race and gender, and of race and nation, this article examines how selected issues in Black family studies might benefit by approaching Black family studies via an intersectional lens.
Woman-to-Woman Marriage: Practices and Benefits in Sub-Saharan Africa
Authors: Cadigan R. Jean
Published: April 2019

This article examines the various forms of woman-to-woman marriage in sub-Saharan Africa and discusses how each form can or could have been used by a woman to advance her social and/or economic status in society. Woman-to- woman marriage may also be beneficial to the persons involved other than the woman who initiates the marriage (the so-called female husband). The motivations of the other participants are also examined. Cross-culturally, women take wives under three circumstances, all of which enhance the status of the female husband: 1) barren women take wives to gain rights over children produced; 2) rich women accumulate wives to gain prestige and wealth in the same way men do through polygyny; and 3) in societies where women possess the right to have a daughter-in-law, a woman without a son may take a wife to give her a non-existent son.
Identity Formation: Problems and Prospects, The Case of Zimbabwe
Authors: Mhloyi M. M.
Published: April 2019

Zimbabwe has experienced a breakdown in traditional social systems as a consequence of “modernization.” Identity formation has to solidify within a cultural tension between the family, whose norms, values, and role expectations are African in general with a Zimbabwean specificity and representing tradition, and the education system and media styled from the western culture. Adolescents depend, to some extent, on themselves as peers to one another. Theoretical resistance to change by the self-perceived custodians of culture has undermined the modeling and social sanctioning of the youth; conflict, confusion and problems confront the adolescents in varying degrees. Effort should be made to build bridges between the different generations and between socialization units—the family, school and the media—to minimize identity problems for the youth.
Mundane Extreme Environmental Stress and African American Families: A Case for Recognizing Different Realities
Authors: Carroll Grace
Published: April 2019

Although Americans are bombarded with the idea that we live in a “colorblind society,” this article argues that the issue of race is still very pervasive in American society. This article highlights how African Americans are perceived by mainstream society and its effect on the overall mental, physical and emotional health of African Americans and their families. Historically, African Americans have been viewed as naturally deficient and pathological. The Moynihan report, Bill Moyers’ awardwinning piece “The Vanishing Black Family,” and other works contribute to the subjugation of African Americans. Few studies have examined how the legacy of slavery and continual institutional racism impact African Americans. The theory of mundane, extreme, environmental stress (MEES) offers this perspective. It describes the unique stress of African Americans who experience the dilemma of “being Black in White America.” In addition, the MEES factor offers a fresh perspective to examining strategies to help African Americans manage and negotiate the system. The article concludes by calling for the creation of a new paradigm for policy creation and scholastic research that would include acknowledging the extreme stressors facing African Americans.
Relative Socioeconomic Status of Spouses, Gender Attitudes, and Attributes, and Marital Quality Experienced by Couples in Metropolitan Moscow
Authors: Vannoy Dana , Cubbins Lisa A.
Published: April 2019

In this paper we expand the line of research in the United States suggesting marital quality or marital stability experienced by spouses is at risk when the socioeconomic attainments of wives equal or surpass those of their husbands to a different cultural context, metropolitan Moscow. Specifically, we analyze the direct and relative effects of spouses education, employment status, occupational prestige, and income on the marital quality experienced by Russian husbands and wives in 1996. In addition, we test whether gender beliefs and attributes of husbands and/or wives interact with relative socioeconomic statuses in their effects on marital quality. The data for the study were collected through a multi-stage, cluster probability sample in the Moscow metropolitan area and the sampling frame consisted of voter registration lists randomly selected from municipalities that were randomly selected from nine prefectures in Moscow. The working data set is 746 couples. Among dual earner couples, contrary to expectation, wives with occupational status lower than husbands have lower marital quality than wives with occupational status higher than husbands. Wives marital quality is highest when spouses incomes are more similar than different. Both spouses marital quality is positively affected by their own and their partners ability to be sensitive, while wifes instrumentality negatively affects both spouses marital quality.
The Kinship Role in a Contemporary Community: Perceptions of Obligations and Sanctions
Authors: Bahr Howard M. , Nye F. Ivan
Published: April 2019

The existence of a family “kinship role” is hypothesized and tested via data from interviews with 210 couples drawn randomly from a list of parents of children in grade 3 in Yakima County, Washington. Heavy majorities of both husbands and wives affirmed an obligation to kin and reported feelings of disapproval for non-performance of kinship obligations. Assessment of norms regarding the division of labor by sex with respect to kinship obligations revealed that kinship behavior tends to be defined as sex-specific. Selected socioeconomic and situational variations in definition and performance of the kinship role are noted. The impact of selected background and contextual factors is shown to vary by specific kinship task as well as by sex of respondent. The results corroborate other researchers’ findings that wives dominate communication with kindred, but also suggest that for certain other tasks such as making decisions about allocation of family resources, wives play a lesser role than husbands.
The Social Context of Morality Standards Among Anglophone Canadian Students
Authors: Hobart Charles W.
Published: April 2019

This paper explores the relationship between profession and practice in respect to premarital intercourse. The sample of 761 respondents was drawn from University and Vocational School students in Alberta and Ontario. Four morality standards were identified: the abstinence standard; the double standard; the love standard; and the fun standard. Cross-tabulation of respondents in terms of their professed sexual standards and their behavioral sexual standards gave rise to a series of meaningful types (including “regretful celibate” and “reluctant non-virgin”). Profiles of these various types were drawn, using available background data.

These data were interpreted as suggesting that despite increasing sexual emancipation, there is yet indication of the rating, dating, dalliance, and exploitation patterns described by Waller many years ago, si nee women more frequently identify with the abstinence and love standards, while men more frequently identify with the double and fun standards. Our data suggest that there is yet no clear indication which of these two sets of standards will become preeminent.
The Sacred Family Order
Authors: Lindskog Birger
Published: April 2019

In the opinion of this author the family order is, in certain respects, coextensive with a religious order. There are, according to this hypothesis, sociopsychological mechanisms in family life with a high affinity to religious action. The comparative perspective is here left aside, as well as the empirical question concerning differences in influence from certain religions and denominations upon the family systems concerned. The “general development scheme”, according to which there is a general tendency toward rationalization and secularizatjon in social life, may be premature. New material has been forwarded which appears to falsify the current hypothesis that extended families will normally be replaced by nuclear families, and here the data tend to show a remarkable constancy over time for small nuclear groups. The author suggests, finally, a typology contrasting a familism pattern with other orientation patterns.
The Sacralization of the Family with Special Reference to Australia
Authors: HansMol
Published: April 2019

In this paper the family is treated as one of many possible foci of identity which tend to become sacralized. Sacralization is used in the sense of a further integration or institutionalisation by means of objectification, commitment, ritual or myth. Evidence for the sacralization of the family and/or the functions it fulfilled are taken from a large variety of cultures. The frame of reference is then used for the explanation of empirical data regarding divorce, mixed marriages, fertility, religious practice of parents and children and rites of passage in Australia.
Experimental liquidus studies of the Zn–Fe–Si–O system in air
Authors: Shevchenko Maksym , Jak Evgueni
Published: April 2019

The liquidus of the ternary system ZnO–“FeO1.5”–SiO2 in air has been experimentally investigated in the tridymite and cristobalite, spinel, and zincite primary phase fields in the temperature range 1623–1923 K (1350–1650°C). Slags containing up to 65 mol.% “FeO1.5” have been studied for the first time. The slag–spinel–zincite eutectic in the binary ZnO–“FeO1.5” system in air has been estimated by extrapolation of the low-SiO2 part of the ternary system to x(SiO2) = 0. High-temperature equilibration on primary phase (silica) or inert metal (platinum) substrates, followed by quenching and direct measurement of Zn, Fe and Si concentrations in the equilibrium phases with electron probe X-ray microanalysis has been used to accurately characterize the system in equilibrium with air. The discrepancies of the previous experimental work in this system have been resolved. The obtained data have been used to reoptimise the existing thermodynamic model.

The short and long-run performance of Shariah-compliant IPOs on Tadawul
Authors: Kamaludin Kamilah , Zakaria Nadisah
Published: April 2019

We examine the short- and long-run financial performance of Sharia-compliant IPO companies in Saudi Arabia for the period between 2000 and 2017. While the literature on the short-run performance is more consistent in presenting evidence of underpricing (see T. Loughran, Ritter, and Rydqvist, 1994), the evidence for long-run performance have been rather mixed and inconclusive (T.  Loughran & Ritter, 1995) between under-and-over-performance outcome. Intrigued by where Saudi Arabia may be positioned on this continuum our analysis indicates that Sharia-compliant IPOs on Tadawul are underpricing with abnormal initial returns of 79.23%. For the long-run performance, our analysis indicates that investors could earn positive and significant market-adjusted BHAR of 14.67% if IPO shares were held over the eighteen-month period following the listing date using the EWI as a market benchmark. The present study would benefit foreign investors and market regulators who are trying to understand the market behaviour in an emerging market.

Authors: Zainol Zaina Norhallis , Md Tap Masine , Mohamed Kamar Haslinda
Published: April 2019

Burn injury is one of the most common injury among firefighters. Moisture comes from perspiration or hose spray absorbed in the personal protective clothing and steam burn injury  occur with continuous heat exposure. The heat transfer from the heat flux is enhanced due to transformation material properties that holds high thermal conductivity and heat conductivity. Finite element method is used to predict steam burn injury among firefighters. The model is developed in 1dimensional cylinderical quarter geometry representing the human limb. It is discovered the skin temperature 10Â°C increases with wet material than dry material. The pain threshold at the lower arm of wet material condition is formed 40second rapidly compare to dry material condition. The first degree burn occur at t=9.5second sooner than the dry condition t=25second. The skin temperature increases with the wet material resulting severe skin burn. It is found that the wet personal protective clothing had compromised its thermal protection. Therefore, firefighters will experience high risk of thermal hazard.

Elderly is someone whose age ranges from 60-74 years, at that age one's health tends to decline. Various programs have been provided by the Indonesian government, such as providing information, giving brochures, and giving announcements on the health service website. But this counseling is not optimal because of the elderly, tend to be lazy to read this because the eyes have started to farsight. So that the health information provided by dina health can be optimal we try to make a model that is used to summarize an article so that the article is easily understood by the elderly. To summarize the article, this study uses the TF-IDF algorithm. By using the TF-IDF algorithm it is expected that the elderly will be easier to understand health articles.
