Addressing Wicked Educational Problems through Inter-Sectoral Policy Development: Lessons from Manitoba's Healthy Child Initiative
Authors: Auclair Jean-Vianney
Published: February 2019

In 2000, the Government of Manitoba initiated an inter-sectoral policystrategy referred to as Healthy Child Manitoba. This article reports on a researchproject that studied the success and challenges of this horizontal policy strategy. Theresearch suggests that while this policy approach—which places education withinthe broader context of a healthy child—warrants attention, the day-to-day operationalization of the policy strategy remains difficult. Using a horizontal approach to improve educational outcomes by breaking down the silo effect of traditional government departments appears to be important, but working effectively across sectors requires overcoming a number of barriers, including the need for the horizontal approach to co-exist within a well-delineated vertical governmental machinery.
Beyond Rhetoric: How Context Influences Education Policy Advocates’ Success
Authors: Winton Sue , Jervis Lauren
Published: February 2019

This article discusses findings from a study of a 22-year campaign to change special education assessment policy in Ontario by the advocacy organization People for Education (P4E) and explains how dominant discourses enabled the government to leave the issue unresolved. Based on a rhetorical analysis of 58 documents, the article identifies strategies used by P4E to persuade Ontario’s government and citizens to view students’ uneven access to educational assessments as a problem. Further, since this problem differently impacts children by class and geographical location, it perpetuates inequities. Despite using strategies deemed effective in other change efforts, arguments mobilized by P4E have not been persuasive in a neoliberal context that champions responsibilized individualism, meritocracy, human capital development, and reduced funding of public services.
Graduating Medical Student Perspectives on Factors Influencing Specialty Choice
Authors: Kost Amanda , Bentley Ashley , Phillips Julie , Kelly Christina , Prunuske Jacob , Morley Christopher P.
Published: February 2019

Background and Objectives: Fewer than 10% of US medical school graduates enter family medicine residencies each year. Little is known about the perceptions and attitudes of senior medical students as they make final decisions about specialty choice, especially those that support a decision to pursue family medicine. The American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) administered a national survey to US seniors in 2015 to explore these factors.
Methods: US seniors who were AAFP members (N=11,998) were invited to complete a survey exploring attitudes toward family medicine and experiences that influenced interest and choice of family medicine (FM) or other specialties. This was offered after students submitted their National Residency Matching Program rank list but before match. For those matching in family medicine, additional questions explored mentorship experience. Factors significantly predicting intent to match in family medicine, mentor attributes significantly influencing student attitudes, and family medicine interest group (FMIG) participation were identified via regression.
Results: The survey response rate was 15.1%. Student perceptions of the respect of FM (OR=0.82), the future of FM (OR=2.04), and FMIG involvement (OR=1.75) predicted choosing FM, as did AAFP student membership (OR=2.13-2.44) and AAFP National Conference of Family Medicine Residents and Students attendance (OR=9.77). For students entering FM, having supportive mentors outside of FM and being dedicated to FM positively influenced their attitudes toward FM and their FMIG participation.
Conclusion: National programs, FMIGs, mentorship, and medical school support of family medicine play a role in student selection of family medicine.
Findings From FMAHealth’s Bright Spots in Practice Transformation Project
Authors: Robinson Cecil , Lee Jay W. , Davis Kisha N. , O'Connor Malachi
Published: February 2019

Background and Objectives: Family physicians are increasingly making or contemplating various methods of practice transformation, but most report significant barriers to making that transition. Given strong interest in practice transformation, and perceived barriers to doing so, it is important to examine how some practices are implementing changes and overcoming barriers. In this project, Family Medicine for America’s Health Practice Team learned from practices across the United States that are transforming and experiencing the benefits of working in a comprehensive, value-based practice. The objectives of the project were to identify drivers of transformation to value-based care and ways of working with drivers to mitigate potential barriers, and to determine relationships between practice transformation and joy of practice.
Methods: Fifteen practices of varying size and type from 11 states participated in this project. Practices were sent a short-answer survey about their practice, transformation, and payment structure. Next, practices participated in a 45-60-minute deep-dive interview. All surveys and interviews were iteratively coded to identify themes using Thomas Bodenheimer, MD, et al’s building blocks of high performing primary care framework.
Results: Engaged leadership, data-driven improvement, team-based care, and comprehensiveness and care coordination were primary drivers of transformation, with payment as a needed foundation. Practice transformation helped meet the triple aim and was correlated to joy of practice.
Conclusions: Practices are transforming to comprehensive value-based care delivery and experiencing greater joy in practice; but payment reform is required to spread and sustain practice transformation.
Report From the FMAHealth Practice Core Team: Achieving the Quadruple Aim Through Practice Transformation
Authors: Marker Jason E. , Davis Kisha N. , Etz Rebecca , Jones Samuel M. , Lee Jay W. , LeFevre Michael , Phillips Robert
Published: February 2019

Family Medicine for America’s Health (FMAHealth) is a strategic planning organization effort that was created out of the reevaluation of the first Future of Family Medicine project from 2004. This article is a summary of the key findings of the FMAHealth Practice Core Team. At the highest level, we find that family medicine practices have compelling intrinsic and extrinsic reasons to evolve to new models of care delivery. We have demonstrated that payment transformation is imperative to successful practice transformation and that comprehensive payment models that include attention to physician work within the social determinants of health and require fewer administrative burdens will be key to achieving the quadruple aim. To bridge payment reform and practice transformation will require better and fewer measures of physician effectiveness in order to allow the physician-patient dyad to thrive in these new models. Achieving these goals will require a sustained national effort involving not only the many family medicine membership organizations, but their collaborative work with others in the health care transformation industry who may not have been our traditional partners. Educational initiatives must be robust, available to all family physicians regardless of professional organization membership, and focused on meeting physicians and physician practice managers where they are with the goal of moving them toward a state of more advanced care delivery. This article outlines the work done by the FMAHealth Practice Team that supports the above assertions.

Authors: Epperly Ted , Bechtel Christine , Sweeney Rosemarie , Greiner Ann , Grumbach Kevin , Schilz Julie , Stream Glen , O'Connor Malachi
Published: February 2019

As America’s health care system continues to transform, the foundational importance of primary care becomes more clear. The Joint Principles of the Patient Centered Medical Home are now more than a decade old. As delivery reform continues, the importance of seven essential shared principles have emerged from a dynamic, collaborative, and iterative process of consensus building across multiple stakeholders. These seven principles will help the public, policy makers, payers, physicians, and other clinical providers speak with a unified voice about these core principles that define the enduring essence and value of primary care. The seven shared principles of primary care consist of: (1) person and family centered, (2) continuous, (3) comprehensive and equitable, (4) team based and collaborative, (5) coordinated and integrated, (6) accessible, and (7) high value. When used together, these shared principles provide a solid platform on which to build all further health care reform.

Published: February 2019

Dermatoglyphic has been widely applied to recognize a person's identity, because people basically have something unique or characteristic possessed only by themselves. This raises the idea of making it a unique identity. This is useful for employees presence applications, especially at Lembaga Pemasyarakatan Klas IIA Palu which is still doing manual presence. This system provides the division of labor time and wereable to detect the fingerprints of employees using a fingerprint scanner. The system was made in several stages of the input fingerprint image, binarization fingerprint image, fingerprint image quality improvement, and matching fingerprint image. Improvements to the quality of the fingerprint image consists of the surgical process of mathematical morphology opening and erosion. The detection process of the fingerprint image used euclidean distance measurement points minutiae. The test results indicate that the presence system accuracy using euclidean distance measurement could detect the fingerprint image by 89% from 20 fingerprint data with 5 times testing for each data.

La política exterior como política pública. Incidencia de las variables internas en la formulación de la política exterior a partir de un estudio de caso: la posición de la Argentina ante el conflicto por el Chaco Boreal entre Paraguay y Bolivia
Authors: Zuccarino Maximiliano
Published: February 2019

El presente trabajo se propone avanzar en la construcción de un marcoteórico e interpretativo que permita explicar y comprender la formulación de la política exterior, de los Estados en general y de la Argentina en particular, a partir de conceder especial atención a la incidencia de los factores internos en el proceso de formulación de la misma, partiendo dela consideración que la política exterior es una más de las múltiples políticas públicas. Para ello, se ha tomado como estudio de caso la actuación de la Argentina en el conflicto por el Chaco Boreal entre Paraguay y Bolivia —cuyo punto cúlmine lo constituyó la Guerra del Chaco (1932-1935) entre estos países— puesto que la misma resulta paradigmática teniendo en cuenta que la posición del país —actuando a la vez como parte interesada y mediador donde se llevaron a cabo las negociaciones de paz— fue la resultante de la confluencia de una serie de factores que van desde intereses “de Estado” económicos, geoestratégicos y militares, hasta aquellos propios de la clase dirigente a cargo del gobierno, pasan-do por los de empresarios argentinos con capitales invertidos en la región en disputa

Authors: Urekar Marjan , Novakovic Djordje , Gazivoda Nemanja
Published: February 2019

A composite milliohm-meter (Com-mOhm), based on standard four-wire Kelvin
resistance measurement method, was developed for measurements of precision
current shunts used in an industrial environment. The system is comprised of
a precision, temperature compensated, low drift, high stability 100 mA
current source and a 4 ? digit commercial multimeter. Due to the set of
specific demands and conditions concerning the industrial applications of
precision current shunts, standard measurement equipment and methods could
not be implemented. The composite resistor standard was used for temperature
stabilization of the precision current source based on precision voltage
reference REF102. The measurement precision of ?0.1 milliohms is observed
during measurement of 20 milliohm current shunts.
Parallel overloaded CDMA crossbar for network on chip
Authors: Kumar Ashok , Dananjayan P.
Published: February 2019

For high performance of Network on Chip (NoC), Code Division Multiple Access
(CDMA) technique is used recently due to its fixed communication delay,
reduced area utilisation and low power consumption. The CDMA system uses
Walsh based spreading code which improves the bandwidth efficiency. On the
contrary, it is not effective when the number of nodes present in the system
increases. Overloaded CDMA (OCDMA) is presented for such large network
systems. In this paper, OCDMA crossbar is modified and advanced with
parallel encoding and decoding operation using orthogonal gold codes for
improving the speed of crossbar thereby obtaining high performance in NoC
switch. A modified crossbar consisting of extra processing elements is used
to enhance the performance of NoC based System on Chip (SoC) system. This
work is simulated on Xilinx tool and implemented in Vertex-6 (XC6VLX760)
Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) device. The proposed work is
implemented for four ports, eight ports and sixteen ports with deterministic
X-Y routing algorithm in 3 3 NoC design with mesh topology. This NoC switch
shows 9.79% improvement in delay and shows 20.76% improvement in power
consumption when compared to the existing CDMA NoCs for 8 bit data packet.
Fiscalización escolar en Chile: evidencia inicial acerca del ajuste normativo de escuelas municipales y particulares subvencionadas / School inspection in Chile: initial evidence about the regulatory adjustment of municipal and subsidized private schools
Authors: Oyarzún Maldonado Cristian , Soto González Rodolfo
Published: February 2019

La promulgación de la Ley 20.529 (2011) representa la consolidación definitiva de las políticas de rendición de cuentas en la educación escolar chilena. Esta política pública no solo incluye instituciones que controlan la gestión y los resultados pedagógicos, sino también instancias de rendición de cuentas de tipo burocrático-legal que fiscalizan la probidad del uso de recursos y el cumplimiento de normas mínimas de funcionamiento. En esta investigación, por tanto, se ofrece evidencia inicial sobre el nivel de ajuste a la normativa de escuelas municipales y particulares subvencionadas en fiscalizaciones oficiadas por la Superintendencia de Educación. En concreto se analizaron datos de 226 escuelas en 1960 fiscalizaciones durante el periodo 2013-2015, y se contrastaron las cantidades de hallazgos (contravenciones) registrados en cada uno de los referidos años para estimar la incidencia de un grupo de variables predictoras sobre la probabilidad de no presentar hallazgos durante fiscalizaciones aplicadas en el último año de ese trienio. Los resultados indican un progresivo y significativo ajuste a la normativa en los dos últimos años estudiados. Asimismo, el número de fiscalizaciones suministradas en los dos primeros años es una variable que favorece el mayor ajuste, mientras que un menor desempeño académico aumenta las probabilidades de presentar hallazgos. Con base en estos datos, se discute la pertinencia de fortalecer instancias de capacitación y fiscalización preventiva, especialmente en escuelas catalogadas de mayor riesgo.

Revenue for the company is very important. The greater income earned, the greater company's ability to fund all costs incurred. In practice, the value of income can not stand alone from the environment. This study wants to reveal the secrets behind the rising of corporate income. The paradigm used in this research is qualitative. This paradigm considers that reality is subjective and has many dimensions. The research approach uses a critical study that aims to reveal the meaning behind income numbers. This critical study is a Neo Marxist line. The results showed that: (1) the increase of income value can not be separated from the interests of management. The company's revenue value so far is a reflection of the company's strategy by using tariff increase only. Furthermore, (2) the company's revenue also shows the obligation of the company to deposit the PAD to the local government. (3) Increase in revenues has a negative impact on consumers. Increasing tariffs to earn revenue was not followed by providing good service to customers. (4) In increasing revenue, companies should not ignore environmental awareness and sustainability.

Published: February 2019

The use of nanostructured components in drug manufacturing and, more specifically, targeted drug delivery has recently become a major trend in the pharmaceutical industry. Nanodrugs encompass a wide range of pharmaceutical agents containing dendrimers, nanocrystals, micelles, liposomes, and polymer nanoparticles. Liposomes are the most well-studied nanoparticles and effective drug carriers. However, the more complex their structure is, the more process controls are needed and the more quality attributes have to be monitored, including the chemical properties of the liposomal fraction such as the shape, size and charge of the nanoparticle, conjugation efficacy, and distribution of the active ingredient. We believe that quality control of key liposome characteristics should rely on dynamic and laser light scattering coupled with electrophoresis, differential scanning calorimetry, cryo-electron microscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, laser diffraction analysis, and gel filtration chromatography.

Como preservar ruínas? Um debate acerca de conceitos e abordagens para a conservação | How to preserve ruins? A debate about concepts and approaches for conservation
Authors: Lima Laís Hanson Alberto , Meneguetti Karin Schwabe , Hirao Helio
Published: February 2019

Dentre os debates acerca da preservação dos monumentos, um dos menos consensuais e sobre ruinas. O conceito varia entre o estado de arruinamento das obras e a ruina como objeto consistente e tal conceituação dita o caminho para a intervenção que, quando aportada na leitura da ruina como processo a ser combatido, resulta em intervenções arquitetônicas em preexistências que tendem a mascarar os aspectos sublimes e pitorescos presentes. Este artigo pretende identificar um aporte teórico para a conservação da ruina como monumento. A metodologia para a compreensão do objeto e a argumentação logica, partindo de uma investigação nos preceitos e teorias do patrimônio, Cartas Patrimoniais e discussões atuais sobre como lidar com ruinas. Encarando‑a como monumento, dotada de aspectos e relações intrínsecas com a paisagem, identifica‑se a conservação dos monumentos aportada por teóricos, seus preceitos na Carta de Veneza (1964) e sua influência em abordagens mais atuais, a exemplo das Verdant Ruins, na Inglaterra.

Este artigo pretende contribuir para a discussão sobre a importância de um repertorio de conhecimento geométrico, visando uma utilização mais frutífera de recursos algorítmico‑paramétricos no processo de projeto. Assim, este texto descreve os procedimentos e analisa os resultados obtidos por meio de uma experiência pratica realizada com alunos de graduação em Arquitetura e Urbanismo, que trabalharam em um workshop cujo objetivo foi o de conceber e fabricar digitalmente um minipavilhão/expositor de maquetes. Portanto, este paper descreve um método exploratório e experimental para estudar o processo de projeto e, com isso, permitir observar e analisar, desde a concepção até a execução de um produto final, as possibilidades de associação entre conhecimento geométrico e tecnologias digitais de suporte projetual. Como conclusão, tem‑se evidencias nas relações entre o conhecimento da Geometria e a tomada de decisão em projeto, ainda que este seja mediado por recursos computacionais.
Impacto da geometria de edificações sobre o desempenho térmico de acordo com o método prescritivo do RTQ‑R | Impact of the building shape on the thermal performance according to the brazilian labelling program
Authors: Santana Laila Oliveira , Carlo Joyce Correna , Silva Luciana Bosco e , Santos Denise Mônaco dos
Published: February 2019

Nas ultimas décadas, com a evolução da tecnologia computacional, surgiram ferramentas de simulação do desempenho ambiental, trazendo novos paradigmas ao ato de projetar. Elas externalizam aspectos perceptivos não‑visuais ao projetista, e assim, auxiliam o cumprimento das premissas arquitetônicas, como, por exemplo, o conforto dos usuários. Muitas vezes, esses preceitos não são incorporados a etapa de concepção, tanto devido as abordagens prevalecentes de projeto, que pouco se modificaram nos últimos quatro séculos, como a incipiência de aplicações dos princípios de eficiência energética ao parque edificado. Neste sentido, foram instituídos regulamentos e requisitos técnicos por meio de políticas energéticas internacionais e nacionais. Um dos vigentes no Brasil e o Regulamento Técnico da Qualidade para o Nível de Eficiência Energética de Edificações Residenciais, aplicado ao presente estudo. O intuito foi estudar, por meio do método prescritivo do Regulamento Técnico da Qualidade para o Nível de Eficiência Energética de Edificações Residenciais, o impacto da geometria arquitetônica sobre o desempenho energético de edifícios — por meio de um modelo de unidade habitacional autônoma. Verificou‑se relações entre o pé‑direito e o fator de forma atreladas ao conforto térmico. Realizou‑se comparação entre as geometrias dos modelos, com exposição dos resultados de desempenho. Por fim, ressalta‑se que descontinuidades e incertezas verificadas no método prescritivo exigem análise posterior dos dados obtidos, por meio de simulações em regime dinâmico.
A relação entre anúncios comerciais e a paisagem urbana de Roma | The relationship between commercial ads and the urban landscape in Rome
Authors: Casarin Vanessa
Published: February 2019

Os mecanismos para controlar a propagação de anúncios comerciais na paisagem urbana, por meio de lei municipais principalmente, evoluem continuamente conforme evoluem as tecnologias utilizadas na fabricação das peças de mídia exterior. O município de Roma tem trabalhado constantemente no aprimoramento de suas normativas de controle de anúncios publicitários reconhecendo neles uma forma profícua de arrecadação de fundos, principalmente, para financiar a conservação e recuperação de bens culturais. Assim, este artigo tem como objetivo apresentar um estudo de caso acerca do controle de anúncios comerciais na cidade de Roma. A pesquisa de caráter qualitativo envolveu análise documental de normas e mapas e a aplicação de passeio walkthrough em doze recortes da cidade de Roma. Os resultados corroboraram os de estudos anteriores, sobretudo acerca das diretrizes que apontam para um controle mais rígido da publicidade em espaço público. No entanto, mostram que e possível abrigar no espaço urbano uma diversidade de mídias sem que se comprometa sua qualidade visual/estética.

Balancing altruism and self-interest: GP and patient implications
Authors: O’Riordan Chris
Published: February 2019

This paper explores how general practitioners (GPs) address potentially opposing motivations stemming from being altruistic and self-interested, and the implications for patients and GPs. The author finds that GPs address dual goals of patient care and profit generation. This can be challenging, while professional values (altruism) encourage a patient focus, business realities (self-interest) mandate other priorities. Viewing clinicians as altruistic in isolation of business needs is unrealistic, as is the notion that profit is the dominant motivation. A blending of interests occurs, pursuing reasonable self-interest, patients’ best interests are ultimately met. GPs need a profit focus to sustain/improve the practice, benefitting patients through continued availability and capacity for enhancement. Therefore, it is argued that GPs behave in a manner that is ‘part altruistic, part self-interested’ and mutually beneficial. These insights should be considered in designing incentive systems for GPs, raising compelling questions about contemporary understanding of the nature of professionals.

Authors: MAFRA Adriana Luiz Sartoreto , SILVA Adriana da , BENTO Carina Adriele
Published: February 2019

A Esclerose Lateral Amiotrófica (ELA) é uma doença neurodegenerativa caracterizada pela depleção progressiva dos neurônios motores superiores e inferiores. Nestes anos, modificações profundas no atendimento e tratamento para o doente de ELA ocorreram, além do reconhecimento que a mesma não afeta somente a pessoa com a doença, mas causa um profundo impacto na famí­lia e, especialmente, naquela pessoa mais próima do paciente que, frequentemente torna-se o seu cuidador.  O objetivo do presente estudo foi definir o que é ELA traçando um breve relato epidemiológico da doença no mundo e no Brasil, descrevendo seu quadro clínico e etiológico, assim como seu diagnóstico e tratamento, buscando avaliar a qualidade de vida do doente e identificar os cuidados que devem ser realizados com o doente pelos profissionais da saúde. Para o alcance do objetivo geral e os especí­ficos, optamos pelo método da revisão de literatura. O levantamento bibliográfico foi realizado pela Internet, no banco de dados Lilacs (Literatura Latino-Americana em Ciências de Saúde) e na base de dados BDENF (Base de Dados Bibliográficos Especializada na área de Enfermagem do Brasil), consideradas as principais da área da saúde brasileira. Determinar quais são os fatores que causam impacto na vida dos indiví­duos com ELA pode auxiliar na tomada de decisões e na elaboração de planejamentos e de intervenções, tratamento e servios. Intervenções especificamente desenhadas para aumentar a efetividade da relação entre pacientes e cuidadores podem melhorar o bem-estar psicológico de ambas as partes.
Prácticas de escritura en posgrado: el caso de una maestría en educación
Authors: Guerrero Jiménez Héctor Iván , Chois Lenis Pilar Mirely
Published: February 2019

Este estudio etnográfico buscó describir las prácticas de escritura en una Maestría en Educación - modalidad investigación. Se encontró circulación de géneros discursivos escritos diversos, principalmente orientados a la evaluación de aprendizajes, y diferencias entre aquellos propuestos en la planeación y los solicitados realmente en clase. Aunque algunos docentes pretenden apoyar la escritura de los estudiantes, estos no siempre lo valoran positivamente, por la brecha que perciben entre las demandas en los seminarios y la urgencia de concluir el trabajo de grado. Parece necesario construir puentes entre las prácticas docentes sobre la escritura y las expectativas estudiantiles.
El caso en el wounan: el sistema de alineamiento y la relación entre marcas de caso y roles semánticos
Authors: Dieck Novial Marianne Eva , Arboleda Vásquez Luz Adriana
Published: February 2019

En el presente artículo se expone el sistema de alineamiento del caso en la lengua amerindia wounan y la relación entre las marcas de caso y los roles semánticos, principalmente en el sistema pronominal. A partir de un corpus recogido en varios trabajos de campo, y de las herramientas de análisis de la gramática descriptiva y la tipología, se propone que el wounan presenta patrones de alineamiento de ergatividad escindida del tipo: ergativo/absolutivo-experimentante. El wounan presenta un desajuste entre algunas marcas gramaticales de caso y los roles semánticos expresados. Sin embargo, esta asimetría entre forma y función no es arbitraria, ya que son coherentes y sistemáticos los contextos sintácticos y semánticos que determinan la interpretación clara de los roles semánticos expresados.
Voces textuales y voces discursivas en la configuración del Estado criminal
Authors: Arango Gaviria Irma Piedad
Published: February 2019

En este artículo presento una propuesta teórico-metodológica que me permitió analizar cómo se construye, discursivamente, el Estado colombiano como un Estado criminal en una secuencia narrativa, extraída del capítulo: “Más allá de los fusiles: garrotes y machetes. Masacre del 21 de febrero de 2005” del libro del padre Javier Giraldo Moreno titulado: Fusil o Toga Toga y Fusil. El Estado contra la Comunidad de Paz de San José de Apartadó (2010). Así mismo, me posibilitó indagar –en este subcorpus– el dispositivo enunciativo y las diferentes estrategias de las que se vale el padre Giraldo, en los niveles del texto, del género, del discurso y la práctica social para otorgarle verosimilitud a la mencionada tesis y credibilidad a las voces que la sustentan.
Premisas implícitas y relaciones de transitividad
Authors: López Astorga Miguel
Published: February 2019

En 2010, Johnson-Laird propuso que el hecho de que no todas las proposiciones que establecen relaciones permiten interpretar tales relaciones como transitivas es un problema para ciertas teorías; en concreto, para aquellas que pretenden explicar el razonamiento y la comunicación humana sintácticamente. Su argumento es, básicamente, que si tales proposiciones hacen referencia a formas lógicas idénticas, las relaciones que debería ser posible derivar de ellas tendrían que ser también similares. No obstante, en este trabajo se defiende que las teorías sintácticas pueden responder a esta crítica. Es suficiente considerar la existencia de premisas implícitas que solo ejercen su acción en ciertos contextos. Así, se propondrá que solo algunas proposiciones correspondientes a relaciones permiten pensar en transitividad porque únicamente algunas de tales proposiciones pueden vincularse con premisas ocultas que expresen esa relación. Como también se mostrará, desde esta óptica se pueden comprender igualmente errores a este respecto.

Authors: Pakan Welly , Muliasari Ataline
Published: February 2019

Peningkatan jumlah penumpang di Bandar Udara Syamsudin Noor juga perlu diimbangi dengan peningkatan kualitas pelayanan. Selain meningkatkan kapasitas terminal untuk peningkatan kenyamanan penumpang, perlu juga diperhatikan penyediaan air bersih yang merupakan kebutuhan pokok manusia. Untuk memenuhi kebutuhan air bersih di bandar udara, diperlukan air bersih dengan kapasitas yang memenuhi peningkatan jumlah pergerakan penumpang setiap tahunnya. Selain itu, diperlukan juga system penyediaan yang meliputi proses pengaliran dari sumber air menuju bandar udara. Terkait dengan hal tesebut diatas, maka perlu dilakukan pengkajian sistem dan kapasitas penyediaan air bersih Bandar udara Samsudin Noor - Banjarmasin Kalimantan Selatan. Dari hasil analisis, dapat disimpulkan bahwa kebutuhan supply air bersih di Bandar udara Syamsudin Noor Banjarmasin adalah 65.352 lt / hari (65m3/ hari). Sementara itu, dengan supply air bersih 32 m3 /jam didapatkan 3 (tiga) sumur bor yang tersedia. Penyediaan air bersih (Q) yang dibutuhkan untuk Bandar Udara Syamsudin Noor adalah 65.352 lt, sehingga estimasi kapasitas air buangan diperkirakan 80% x 65.352 = 52.281 lt. Terkait dengan hal tersebut diatas, maka debit pengaliran di bandara ini adalah (Q) = 6,43m3 / dt dan diameter saluran untuk Bandar udara Syamsudin Noor dengan debit air hujan rata-rata sebesar 2400 mm/ dt adalah 1.32 m
Pengaruh Pembatasan Subsidi Bbm Solar Terhadap Tarif Angkutan Perkotaan
Authors: Herawati Herawati , Mutharuddin Mutharuddin
Published: February 2019

Pembatasan subsidi BBM Solar akan berdampak pada kenaikan biaya operasional kendaraan angkutan umum yang pada akhirnya akan menyebabkan kenaikan tarif angkutan umum. Dampak pengurangan subsidi tersebut perlu kajian untuk mengidentifikasi kenaikan tarif angkutan umum disesuaikan dengan wilingness to pay (WTP) dan willingness to accept (WTA) penumpang angkutan umum tersebut. Metode perhitungan tarif angkutan umum didasarkan pada metode perhitungan biaya operasional kendaraan yang telah ditetapkan pada peraturan Dirjen Perhubungan Darat Kementerian Perhubungan. Sedangkan metode perhitungan WTA dan WTP menggunakan analisis kuantitatif. Analisis dilakukan dengan menggunakan beberapa skenario kenaikan harga BBM Solar, yaitu kenaikan 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% dan 100%. Kenaikan harga BBM sebesar 20% belum memberikan pengaruh terhadap kenaikan tarif angkutan perkotaan yaitu masih dapat menerapkan tarif seperti yang sekarang berlaku Rp 3000. Karena tarif tersebut masih dibawah WTP (Rp 3.915) dan ATP (Rp 4.941). Kenaikan BBM solar sebesar 40% telah memberi pengaruh terhadap kenaikan tarif angkutan umum yaitu sebesar Rp 3.700. Namun kenaikan tarif tersebut belum melebih WTP dan ATP penumpang yaitu  Rp 3.915 dan Rp 4.941. Kenaikan harga BBM sebesar 60%, 80% dan 100% telah memberikan pengaruh terhadap kenaikan tarif sebesar Rp 5.200, Rp 8.175 dan Rp 15.059. Kenaikan tarif tersebut jauh dari nilai WTP (Rp 3.915) dan ATP (Rp 4.941). Untuk menjaga keberlangsungan angkutan perkotaan di DKI Jakarta, diperlukan campur tangan pemerintah dengan pemberian subsidi apabila kebaikan BBM solar yang diberlakukan melebihi atau sama dengan 40%. Subsidi tersebut untuk masing-masing kenaikan BBM solar 40%, 60%, 80% dan 100% adalah Rp 200 per penumpang-km, Rp 3.200 per penumpang, dan Rp 10.000 per penumpang-km. Kata kunci: subsisdi BBM solar, tarif, WTP, WTA
