Abstract. The Data Unification and Altimeter Combination System (DUACS) produces sea level global and regional
maps that serve oceanographic applications, climate forecasting centers,
and geophysics and biology communities. These maps are generated using an
optimal interpolation method applied to altimeter observations. They are
provided on a global 1∕4∘ × 1∕4∘ (longitude × latitude) and daily grid resolution framework
(1∕8∘ × 1∕8∘ longitude × latitude grid for the regional products) through the Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service (CMEMS). Yet, the dynamical content of these maps does not have full 1∕4∘ spatial and 1 d temporal resolutions due to the
filtering properties of the optimal interpolation. In the present study, we
estimate the effective spatial and temporal resolutions of the newly
reprocessed delayed-time DUACS maps (a.k.a. DUACS-DT2018). Our approach is
based on the ratio between the spectral content of the mapping error and the
spectral content of independent true signals (along-track and tide gauge
observations), also known as the noise-to-signal ratio. We found that the
spatial resolution of the DUACS-DT2018 global maps based on sampling by
three altimeters simultaneously ranges from ∼100 km wavelength
at high latitude to ∼800 km wavelength in the equatorial band
and the mean temporal resolution is ∼34 d. The mean
effective spatial resolution at midlatitude is estimated to be ∼200 km. The mean effective spatial resolution is ∼130 km for
the regional Mediterranean Sea and for the regional Black Sea products. An
intercomparison with previous DUACS reprocessing systems (a.k.a., DUACS-DT2010
and DUACS-DT2014) highlights the progress of the system over the past 8 years, in particular a gain of resolution in highly turbulent regions. The same diagnostic applied to maps constructed with two altimeters and maps with three altimeters confirms a modest increase in resolving capabilities and accuracies in the DUACS maps with the number of missions.
La elasticidad del gasto público y la ley de Wagner en Nicaragua
Authors: Flores Méndez Leonel Antonio
Published: August 2019

La presente investigación se centra en estudiar la elasticidad del gasto público en Nicaragua en el periodo 2006-2018, con el objetivo de poder demostrar la incidencia de este en el desarrollo del país, además poder verificar la aplicación emperica de la ley de Wagner. En este sentido se aplicó las metodologías de Peacok – Wiseman (1968), Musgrave (1969) y Gupta (1967), los cuales proponen ecuaciones específicas para poder relacionar la variable renta, población con el gasto público. Esto dio como resultado, que la elasticidad del gasto público con respecto a la renta es de 1.09, esta relación indica un aporte positivo al desarrollo económico de Nicaragua del crecimiento del gasto público.
Análisis del desarrollo humanista en San Sebastián de Yalí, con énfasis en el caso de los cortadores de café 2018.
Authors: Martínez Rodríguez Yeimi Yunieth
Published: August 2019

El tema y objetivo principal se centran en el análisis del desarrollo humanista en San Sebastián de Yalí, con énfasis en el caso de los cortadores de café. La metodología desarrollada tiene un enfoque meramente cualitativo, se hizo uso de dos métodos de recopilación de la información, el método etnográfico, fundamental en investigaciones de carácter antropológico, y el método de revisión bibliográfica, las técnicas que sirvieron de apoyo  a los métodos fueron observación directa y entrevista semiestructurada,  para el primero mencionado, y, arqueo bibliográfico para el segundo, en el procesamiento de datos se aplicó la técnica de análisis de datos. San Sebastián de Yalí basa su principal actividad económica en el modelo agro exportador, el sistema imperante que ha estado vigente desde décadas atrás, ha sumergido el país en una dependencia económica, que generó una agudización en las desigualdades, resultando contradictorio que este municipio a pesar de aportar a la generación de divisas, se encuentra entre los quinces municipios más pobres; en la última década con el cambio de gobierno y la implementación de programas que apuntan a una nueva lógica de desarrollo, se han logrado avances significativos en materia de educación y salud, sin embargo, no es de negar que en materia económica, producto a un sistema económico heredado que para un cambio profundo amerita cambios estructurales, el desarrollo humano integral se ha visto limitado. En conclusión el desarrollo económico propuesto por el sistema capitalista a pesar de mostrarse como una receta de solución a los problemas, ha tenido un efecto contrario frente a las problemáticas sociales, por tanto se puede considerar como un sistema anti-humanista el cual profundiza la brecha en desigualdad social, empujando a la continuidad de patrones culturales.
Dinámica de la inflación y la brecha Producto en Nicaragua
Authors: Morales Rivas Oliver David , Canales Salinas Ricardo José
Published: August 2019

El artículo tiene por finalidad determinar el impacto de la brecha producto en el nivel de inflación de Nicaragua para el periodo de 1992-2018. Para tal propósito se utilizaron dos modelos econométricos; el primero de regresión múltiple y el segundo un vector autorregresivo (VAR). Los resultados sugieren que la brecha producto impacta en la inflación en 0.52 porciento, además se determinó que las fluctuaciones en la brecha producto, pueden afectar el nivel habitual de precios por año y luego dicho efecto se diluye. Por lo descrito, se concluye que el enfoque de oferta agregado, es útil para la explicación de la dinámica inflacionaria en Nicaragua y que la relación inflación-brecha producto está caracterizado por una condición inelástica.
On the Theme of Thomas Hardy’s Jude the Obscure
Authors: Lu Guorong , Zhang Zhehui
Published: August 2019

Thomas Hardy’s Jude the Obscure got the most attention of the critical world in the nineteenth century of Britain. The theme was always regarded as the embodiment of original sin, pessimism and voluntarism. However, when the theme is analyzed again, it will be found something totally different. Hence, three-phase patterns are to be singled out for a case study in order to shed light upon some facts and conclusions. The first stage is the expression of optimism from the perspective of symbolism; the second stage is the representation of conflict between character and environment in light of Darwinism; the third stage is the exploration of rationality from the viewpoints of religion and feminism. What can be learned is that the story is meant to show readers the kindness tendency, the courage to face the harsh reality and a sense of rationality.
Greek Consumers’ Behaviour Towards Fast-Food Consumption
Authors: Jashari Aldrina , Kotsios Panagiotis
Published: August 2019

Fast food has become a very popular nutritional habit for consumers and a billion dollars market for businesses across the world. As in most countries, in Greece there are thousands of fast food businesses that aim at satisfying the growing demand for fast food. However, there is lack of research about the behaviour of Greek consumers regarding fast food consumption. On this context, the goal of this research was to investigatethe frequency of consumption in Greece, the most popular types of fast food, the criteria with which consumers make consumption decisions and the environmental, economical, ethical, cultural and psychological factors that influence their buying behaviours. The results of the research show wide popularity of fast food consumption among Greek consumers and a clear trend towards healthy, tasty, easily accessible and not necessarily low-cost fast food.
Preliminary assessment of human remains from the Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el Bahari
Authors: Campbell Roselyn A.
Published: August 2019

Excavations over the course of many seasons by the Polish-Egyptian Mission in the Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari have revealed the presence of multiple intrusive burials within and around the temple structure itself. These burials are dated much later than the construction of Hatshepsut’s temple, most of them seemingly from the Third Intermediate Period, and have been heavily disturbed over the millennia. This article presents a preliminary assessment of human remains from some of these burials. The remains are highly fragmentary and in varying states of preservation, from mummified to completely skeletonized. Only two individuals are present as nearly complete mummies. A brief inventory indicates the presence of multiple individuals, both adults and juveniles, and both male and female. At least one instance of a healed traumatic injury is visible in one of the mummified individuals. This preliminary study is intended to establish a foundation for future research regarding the life histories of these individuals.
Third Intermediate Period funerary assemblages from the Chapel of Hatshepsut: Coffins and cartonnages from the Twenty-second to the Twenty-fifth Dynasties
Authors: Payraudeau Frédéric
Published: August 2019

The text catalogues the best preserved pieces of coffins and cartonnages excavated from the burials made on the Third Terrace of the Temple of Hatsheput in the Third Intermediate Period when the ruins were used as a burial ground for noblemen, in particular the family of Vizier Padiamunet. Hundreds of fragments were found since the 1930s (not all have survived and the fragmentation and mixing of the finds make it a very difficult material to study). On typological and epigraphic grounds the remains were assigned to the third part of the Twenty-second and the larger part of the Twenty-fifth Dynasties.
EXTRAORDINARY POWERS OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE REICH
Authors: Kuźnik Grzegorz
Published: August 2019

The aim of the article titled Extraordinary powers of the President of the Reich is to discuss article 48(2) of the Weimar Constitution. The article empowered the President of the Reich to issue emergency decrees in case of a threat to public order and security. This was a solution that diverged considerably both from pre-WWI regulations and the provisions of the current Basic Law for the Federal Republic of Germany.The first part of the paper presents an interpretation of article 48, depicts the historical circumstances stemming from the established body of German pre-WWI jurisprudence, and describes the issues of the legislative work. The second part, which discusses how the article was used in practice, distinguishes between the three periods of its application, and explores the case law of the
State Tribunal of the Reich and the views of the doctrine on the provision in question. Moreover, matters related to the legislative process and the construction of legal acts are explored. These considerations are summarized in the conclusions.
COMPLIANCE RISK MANAGEMENT IN THE BANK AFTER THE CHANGES FROM 2017 IN POLAND
Authors: Majewski Kamil
Published: August 2019

The compliance organizational unit, in a legal environment dictated by changes to the regulations of 2017, is a key organizational unit in the bank’s organizational structure, which has been assigned tasks related to the broadly understood risk compliance management. For the proper functioning of compliance organizational unit, it was guaranteed its proper location and the status of the head of the compliance organizational unit and employees performing these tasks. In contrast, the compliance risk management process, understood from 2017 as a set of specific elements and tasks (identification, assessment, control, monitoring and reporting), is one of the key processes that make up the bank’s risk management system.

Published: August 2019

This preliminary analysis, uses simulations performed by the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) coupled forecast system model version 2 (CFSv2) /regional climate model RegCM-4.6, allowed to be observed in this work, the data analyzed were the information of the surface wind intensity, by the analysis and comparison of the simulations carried out for the Alcântara region on the coast of the state of Maranhão. These simulations were stored in the period from February to June 2018. The analysis sought to validate with ERA5 reanalysis data from the European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF). The observed result shows great potential for use of prediction ensemble techniques, since in the observed results the smallest anomalies were observed in the intraseasonal ensemble prediction to the Alcântara region in the intensity wind, in comparison to the simulation without being ensemble, presenting greater deviations and when closer to the forecast, in itself, greater deviations presented. The intraseasonal Ensemble estimation ends up filtering the terms of high frequency, being the best estimate and presenting intraseasonal predictions more balanced.

Published: August 2019

Waste tires, when they are not properly managed, become a major factor in environmental degradation. The objective of this study was to characterize the knownlegment and environmental consciousness level of establishments that manipulate or deal directely with tires in the town Paragominas – PA, as well as its commitment level with the legislation about the reverse logistics applied to discard of waste. This is an exploratory study, associated to a survey of bibliographic data with a temporal cut for the last 10 years, besides the application of interviews and socioenvironmental forms as data collection procedures. The results indicated that only 3.33% (CI: 0.00-8.71%) of the enterprises have a high-level understanding about the reverse logistics. The numbers were also worrisome in relation to the knowledge of Law No. 12,305:2010, in which 40.00% (CI: 25.33-54.67%) of the companies said they did not know. Despite the lack of normative instructions, 100% of the visited companies showed a desire to take part in reuse projects and/or recycling discarded tires. As a proposal for the problem, it is worth mentioning the application of alternatives that allow the reuse of waste tires in medium-large scale.

Det digitale bibliotek. Vilkår og visioner
Authors: Von Hjelmcrone Harald
Published: August 2019

Forskningsbibliotekernes fremtid over de næste 20 år sammenlignes med udviklingen på tv-området: Til trods for et ønske om pluralitet har vi fået et stadig mere ensartet udbud af udsendelser. Dette skyldes organiseringen af markedet for fjernsynsprogrammer. En lignende organisationsform er ved at vinde indpas på markedet for biblioteksrelevante materialer. Giver bibliotekerne sig tilfreds med det, vil der ikke være behov for andet end en stor bevilling til licenser, et godt bogholderi og et edb-kontor, der kan administrere adgangsforholdene – ligesom kabelselskaberne nu gør det på radio- tv-området.  Den retlige regulering af området, herunder især ophavsretten og persondataretten, vil gøre det vanskeligt for bibliotekerne at gå på tværs af markedet og fortsat stille et alsidigt og kvalitetspræget udbud af information til rådighed for brugerne. Skal tendenserne til ensretning modvirkes, kræver det en aktiv indsats, og den forudsætter at bibliotekernes personale har faglige kompetencer i de fag, biblioteket skal formidle, samt viden om medie- og informationsret.  Denne artikel blev oprindelig holdt som oplæg til temadag om ”Visioner for forskningsbibliotekernes fremtid” på Danmarks Biblioteksskole den 2. april 2009.

Evidens om bibliotekernes brugere
Authors: Pors Niels Ole
Published: August 2019

Formålet med denne artikel er at undersøge i hvilken udstrækning danske og nordiske brugerundersøgelser kan siges at etablere en forholdsvis sikker viden om brugernes adfærd, aktiviteter og præferencer. Der gennemgås et mindre antal undersøgelser, der har det fællestræk, at de har et videnskabeligt ambitionsniveau. Der er udvalgt undersøgelser publiceret efter 2005, og undersøgelserne har meget forskellig metodeanvendelse. På trods af dette peger analyserne på, at der kan aflæses ensartede tendenser vedrørende de forskellige brugersegmenter. Nogle af hovedresultaterne er, at både uddannelsesbibliotekernes og folkebibliotekernes brugere primært er orienterede mod indhold og tekster, både i forhold til aktiviteter og i forhold til præferencer. Indholdet kan være både papirbåret eller digitalt, men det vurderes som det væsentligste af brugerne. Det er ligeledes tydeligt, at det fysiske biblioteksrum betyder meget for brugerne, men at det er særlige grupper, der især anvender det. Det er ligeledes tydeligt, at brugerne har taget dele af det digitale univers til sig, og at det influerer kraftigt på informationsadfærden. Der er i de gennemgåede undersøgelser ikke mange indikationer på, at brugerne anvender bibliotekerne som mødesteder eller i øvrigt udviser interesse for at forbinde sociale teknologier og lignende med deres biblioteksbrug. Et hovedresultat i undersøgelserne synes faktisk at være, at brugerne er traditionelle i deres aktivitetsmønster og præferencer.
Evidence based library and information practice (EBLIP) i Sverige
Authors: Haglund Lotta
Published: August 2019

Artiklen tager afsæt i en definition af evidencebased library and information practice (EBLIP), der lægger vægt på en bred definition omfattende både brugerrapporteret, bibliotekar observeret og forskningsbaseret evidens. Her slås også fast, at svenske biblioteker er relativt stærke på de to første felter: den brugerrapporterede og den bibliotekar observerede evidens og sammenlignet hermed svagere med hensyn til den forskningsbaserede evidens. Artiklen kortlægger herefter en række kritikpunkter og barrierer med særlig relevans for Sverige i forhold til brugen af forskningsbaseret evidens såsom evidensbevægelsens tætte tilknytning til naturvidenskabeligt prægede forskningstraditioner, en udbredt oplevelse af konceptet som dogmatisk og særtræk ved bibliotekaruddannelsen og organisationskulturen i mange biblioteker. I artiklen henvises til en række EBLIP- inspirerede initiativer og aktiviteter i Sverige: effekten på bibliotekaruddannelsernes indhold, den svenske biblioteksforenings indsatser og publikationer, svenske bibliotekarers engagement og indsats i forhold til de tilbagevendende, internationale EBLIP konferencer og i særdeleshed Karolinska Institutets Universitetsbiblioteks (KIB) centrale rolle som primus motor i forhold til kompetenceudvikling, kurser, konferencer og workshops fremhæves. Optimistisk vurderes det, at aktiviteterne har betydet, at det dokumenterede yderst beskedne kendskab til EBLIP blandt svenske bibliotekarer i 2007 nu sandsynligvis er blevet forbedret.

Informationskompetence : Set ud fra to forskellige praksisteorier
Authors: Schreiber Trine
Published: August 2019

I de senere år er praksisteorier blevet anvendt indenfor undersøgelser og analyser af informationskompetence. Teorierne er dog indbyrdes forskellige og vil derfor have forskellige implikationer for analyser af informationskompetence. Det er artiklens formål at sammenligne to praksisteorier, nemlig Theodore Schatzki ́s og Etienne Wenger ́s teorier med hensyn til hvad de indebærer for et emne som informationskompetence. De to tilgange har en del fælles træk men har også mange forskelle. Artiklen konkluderer at Schatzki ́s tilgang indebærer at man kan tale om såvel en informationspraksis som en informationskompetencepraksis. Kompetence og dermed informationskompetence kan ikke betragtes isoleret, men skal ses i sammenhæng med øvrige elementer i definitionen af en social praksis. Denne praksis indgår samtidig i et net af mange praksisser. Et centralt tema inden for emnet informationskompetence kan derfor være hvordan en informationspraksis kan opretholdes eller transformeres gennem netop dens sammenkædning med andre praksisser. Wenger ́s tilgang betyder derimod at man kan tale om et praksisfællesskabs kompetencesystem. På baggrund af en meningsforhandling udvikler praksisfællesskabet sitkompetencesystem og herunder dets informationskompetencesystem. Dette kan dog i f.eks. en organisation udfordres af andre værdier og dermed få  vanskeligt ved at blive anerkendt som kompetencer.Et centralt tema inden for emnet informationskompetence kan derfor være den forskellighed og eventuelle konflikt, der kan være mellem praksisfællesskabets læreprocesser og kompetencesystem og de kravsom f.eks. den omkringliggende organisation opstiller. Artiklen konkluderer at det for begge teorier er vanskeligt at planlægge en ændring i en informationspraksis eller i et informationskompetencesystem. Forandringer er nemlig konstitueret af enten netværket af praksisser eller af praksisfællesskabets meningsforhandlinger.
La volonté de punir : vers une problématisation du projet de justice pénale internationale1
Authors: Thibault Jean-François
Published: August 2019

S’inspirant de la démarche élaborée par Michel Foucault sur l’histoire du présent, cette note de recherche propose l’esquisse préliminaire d’une généalogie du projet de justice pénale internationale entendu comme réponse au problème posé par la transgression des lois et coutumes de la guerre. Cette généalogie entend rendre problématique l’origine fréquemment affirmée de ce projet au lendemain de la Première Guerre mondiale. Plus spécifiquement, l’objectif consiste à proposer un cadre permettant d’amorcer la généalogie de ce projet – et des catégories sur lesquelles ce projet repose – de manière à mettre en lumière les conditions ayant rendu possible la mise en place d’un arrangement institutionnel fondant ensemble une raison légale, une charpente juridique, une motivation politique et un impératif moral fonctionnant comme un dispositif de savoir-pouvoir.
Deux conditions de la légitimité démocratique
Authors: Roussin Juliette
Published: August 2019

Cet article défend une conception duale de la légitimité démocratique, selon laquelle les décisions et actions politiques, pour valoir comme légitimes d’un point de vue démocratique, doivent présenter certains traits procéduraux et substantiels spécifiques. L’objet de l’article est à la fois de chercher à préciser la nature de ces traits, et d’éclaircir les modalités de leur articulation. La thèse qu’il défend est que, si les composantes procédurales et substantielles des résultats démocratiques correspondent à deux ensembles de conditions également nécessaires, mais non suffisantes, pour que ces résultats et le régime qui les produit puissent être tenus pour légitimes, le respect des exigences procédurales bénéficie néanmoins d’une certaine priorité dans l’estimation de la légitimité démocratique.
L’usage de la conjecture technique chez Galien de Pergame
Authors: Hébrard Jérémie
Published: August 2019

L’enjeu de cette contribution est d’explorer les réflexions sur les arts stochastiques dans l’Antiquité et de montrer comment les développements concernant « l’art de conjecturer » que l’on trouve chez Galien constituent une option préférable aux voies traditionnelles empruntées par les philosophes pour expliquer la faillibilité inhérente à l’art médical. En distinguant le diagnostic scientifique du diagnostic conjectural, Galien englobe la totalité des cas pertinents pour l’art médical. Le premier, en raison de son caractère général, peut être théorisé. Quant au second, il concerne uniquement le particulier et n’est donc pas susceptible d’entrer dans la théorie, si ce n’est que par la méthode qui le rend possible. Il s’agit donc de dresser une ébauche des mécanismes qui sous-tendent la conjecture technique afin d’exposer la position adroitement élaborée par Galien sur un sujet où l’hégémonie philosophique régnait jusqu’alors.
Travail collectif pluridisciplinaire dans la prévention des risques professionnels complexes : ressources et contraintes du contexte au Québec et en France
Authors: Bellemare Marie , Caroly Sandrine , Prud’homme Daniel
Published: August 2019

Dans le cadre d’une étude menée au sein de services de santé au travail au Québec et en France, nous nous intéressons aux conditions favorables aux pratiques de travail collectif pluridisciplinaire (TCP). Face à des problèmes de santé complexes, tels que les troubles musculosquelettiques (TMS) ou les troubles de santé psychologique (TPS), des professionnels de différents métiers sont amenés à collaborer, notamment pour mener des actions de prévention primaire ayant pour cible les conditions de réalisation du travail. Le contexte dans lequel oeuvrent, d’une part, les équipes de santé au travail (ESAT) au Québec et, d’autre part, les services de santé au travail interentreprises (SSTi) en France diffèrent en raison de leur histoire, leurs cadres juridique et institutionnel, leurs missions et dispositifs.

En étudiant les actions en milieu de travail menées par les acteurs de ces services, à partir de données recueillies par le biais d’observations et d’entretiens réalisés dans les deux contextes, nous examinons les formes de travail collectif pluridisciplinaire en prévention des TMS. Ceci nous a permis de mettre en lumière les contraintes et les ressources qu’offre, à cet égard, chacun des contextes. Nous constatons que le contexte québécois, avec son approche de santé publique qui prescrit une démarche structurée faisant appel à la pluridisciplinarité, permet des formes plus élaborées de travail collectif grâce au partage d’outils communs et aux prises de décisions collectives quant aux modalités de l’intervention. Dans le contexte français, bien que les formes du travail collectif pluridisciplinaire soient moins développées, le mandat de prévention assuré par les services de santé au travail permet un élargissement du périmètre d’action que l’on ne retrouve pas dans le contexte québécois. Ces résultats interrogent les marges de manoeuvre offertes par les dispositifs en vue d’une prévention durable et efficace des risques professionnels.
The Effects of Work-Life Benefits on Employment Outcomes in Canada: A Multivariate Analysis
Authors: Fang Tony , Lee Byron , Timming Andrew R. , Fan Di
Published: August 2019

The aim of this study is to examine the empirical question of how the provision of work-life benefits is associated with wages, promotions, and job satisfaction. This is an important question for industrial relations scholars and one that, as yet, has no definitive answer.

In order to answer this question, we employ both economic theory and methods. Specifically, the economic theories being tested are the compensating wage differentials theory and the efficiency wage theory. To test the efficacy of each theory, we use econometric techniques using longitudinal data from the most recent Workplace and Employee Survey of Canada. We use regression to unpack the effects of work-life benefits on various employment outcomes and employ instrumental variables to mitigate against reverse causality.

We find broad support for the efficiency wage theory. Alternatively stated, we find that increases in benefits are not associated with decreases in wages and other employment outcomes. If bundled correctly, work-life benefits are positively associated with increased wages, a greater number of promotions, enhanced employee morale in the form of job satisfaction, and improved employee retention.

These results suggest that the provision of work-life benefits is not a zero-sum game for employers and employees. On the contrary, it appears that both parties to the employment relationship can benefit from work-life benefits.
Abusive Supervision, Psychological Capital, and Turnover Intention: Evidence from Factory Workers in China
Authors: Seo Yumi , Chung Sun Wook
Published: August 2019

As a dark side of leadership, scholars have shown that abusive supervision (AS) has negative consequences for subordinates work, organizations and society. This study focuses on the detrimental effects of AS on employee turnover intention, which is one of the major concerns for firms in China. We examined the underlying psychological mechanism between AS and turnover intention, specifically by focusing on the mediational role of psychological capital (Luthanset al., 2007) based on the conservation of resources theory (COR, from Hobfoll, 2002). By explaining the process of how AS can deplete individuals’ resources, which leads to protective behaviour and attitudes, we attempt to integrate COR theory into the existing AS literature. We also investigated the moderating role of broader organizational contexts represented by organizational justice perception in the relationship between AS and turnover intention, showing boundary conditions where the effects of AS can be amplified with regard to overall organizational justice perception.

Based on survey data collected from young factory workers in northern China, this study finds that abusive supervision is positively correlated with turnover intention. Psychological capital, especially optimism, mediates this relationship. In addition, when workers perceived high levels of procedural and distributive organizational justice, this association between abusive supervision and turnover intention was even stronger. Furthermore, the perception of procedural organizational justice also moderated the mediation mechanism of optimism between abusive supervision and turnover intention.

This paper enriches the extant studies by considering the relationship between abusive supervision and its negative consequences for manufacturing workplaces in a non-western country, a context that has been little studied. In addition, by showing how psychological capital and the perception of organizational justice affect the AS-turnover intention relationship, this paper provides a nuanced and deeper understanding of the psychological mechanism and organizational context of abusive supervision.
Les travailleurs étrangers temporaires au Canada : une sous-classe d’employés ?1
Authors: Fleury Charles , Bélanger Danièle , Haemmerli Guillaume
Published: August 2019

Au cours des années 2000, la politique migratoire du Canada a donné lieu à des développements visant l’accroissement du recours aux travailleurs étrangers munis d’un statut de résidence temporaire. Ce recours accru s’inscrit dans une tendance observée dans plusieurs pays du Nord qui consiste à valoriser et à faciliter la mobilité des travailleurs dans un marché du travail mondialisé. En dépit de la place croissante de ces travailleurs sur le marché du travail canadien, on connait encore peu de chose à leur sujet. Le présent article vise à pallier une partie de cette lacune en caractérisant ces travailleurs sur le plan professionnel et en analysant l’effet de leur statut de résidence sur leur revenu d’emploi. S’appuyant sur les données du recensement canadien de 2016, l’analyse révèle que les travailleurs temporaires possèdent, globalement, un revenu d’emploi inférieur à celui des immigrants économiques, qu’ils soient établis depuis peu au Canada ou qu’ils y soient depuis plus longtemps. En outre, elle montre que le statut de résidence temporaire peut devenir un facteur qui désavantage le travailleur et s’avérer un frein à l’amélioration de son revenu au fil du temps.
L’inadéquation éducation-emploi et son impact sur les revenus chez les travailleurs canadiens
Authors: Boudarbat Brahim , Montmarquette Claude
Published: August 2019

Dans ce texte, nous brossons un portrait de la surqualification professionnelle au Canada en traitant de sa fréquence et de ses répercussions sur la rémunération des travailleurs. La surqualification des travailleurs est une question largement étudiée dans la littérature, ce qui témoigne bien de l’importance du phénomène autant pour les décideurs des politiques publiques que pour les individus. Les données de l’Enquête nationale auprès des ménages (ENM) de 2011 indiquent que le pourcentage de travailleurs canadiens qui étaient surqualifiés dans leur emploi était de 26 % en 2011, soit presque le même taux enregistré en 2006. Ce taux varie significativement selon le niveau d’études (40 % chez les titulaires d’un baccalauréat, 18,3 % pour les diplômés d’études secondaires) et le domaine d’études (49 % en histoire, 27 % en bibliothéconomie). Au chapitre des revenus, les travailleurs surqualifiés gagnent moins que leurs collègues qui ont le même niveau de scolarité, mais qui occupent un poste qui correspond à cette scolarité. Toutefois, par rapport aux travailleurs qui possèdent le niveau d’études habituellement requis, les plus scolarisés (c’est-à-dire ceux qui sont surqualifiés) gagnent plus.

Siyali Ramamrita Ranganathan’s Five Laws of Library Science (1931) has long served as a philosophy for the practice of librarianship. The original five laws remain relevant almost ninety years after they were originally proposed (Ranganathan, 1931). As new modes of information and access, as well as resources and technology, have come into existence, these laws have remained flexible and open to adaptation. However, extant library literature has not yet situated Ranganathan’s Laws within the context of open educational resources (OER). As freely accessible teaching and learning resources, OER reflect the core values of Ranganathan’s Laws; further, viewing OER through Ranganathan’s lens offers new opportunities for librarians to situate their OER work within one of the discipline’s most foundational philosophies. The following sections introduce Ranganathan’s Five Laws and their recent adaptations and provide a new interpretation of these laws within the context of OER. The implications for situating OER within Ranganathan’s Five Laws are also shared.
Anxiety-like behavior and whole-body cortisol responses to components of energy drinks in zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Published: August 2019

The current study investigated the independent and combined effects of caffeine and taurine on anxiety-like behavior and neuroendocrine responses in adult zebrafish (Danio rerio). Caffeine (1,3,7-trimethylpurine-2,6-dione), the world’s most commonly used psychoactive drug, acts as an adenosine receptor blocker and a mild central nervous system stimulant. However, excessive use of caffeine is associated with heightened anxiety levels. Taurine (2-aminoethanesulfonic acid), a semi-essential amino acid synthesized within the human brain, has been hypothesized to play a role in regulating anxiolytic behavior. Caffeine and taurine are two common additives in energy drinks and are often found in high concentrations in these beverages. However, few studies have investigated the interaction of these two chemicals with regards to anxiety measures. A suitable vertebrate to examine anxiety-like behavior and physiological stress responses is the zebrafish, which has shown promise due to substantial physiological and genetic homology with humans. Anxiety-like behavior in zebrafish can be determined by analyzing habituation to novelty when fish are placed into a novel tank and scototaxis (light avoidance) behavior in the light-dark test. Stress-related neuroendocrine responses can be measured in zebrafish by analyzing whole-body cortisol levels. The goal of this study was to determine if exposure to caffeine, taurine, or a combination of the two compounds altered anxiety-like behavior and whole-body cortisol levels in zebrafish relative to control. Zebrafish were individually exposed to either caffeine (100 mg/L), taurine (400 mg/L), or both for 15 min. Zebrafish in the control group were handled in the same manner but were only exposed to system tank water. After treatment, fish were transferred to the novel tank test or the light-dark test. Behavior was tracked for the first 6 min in the novel tank and 15 min in the light-tark test. Fifteen min after introduction to the behavioral task, fish were euthanized for the analysis of whole-body cortisol levels. The results demonstrate that caffeine treatment decreased the amount of exploration in the top of the novel tank and increased scototaxis behavior in the light-dark test, which supports the established anxiogenic effect of acute exposure to caffeine. Taurine alone did not alter basal levels of anxiety-like behavioral responses nor ameliorated the anxiogenic effects of caffeine on behavior when the two compounds were administered concurrently. None of the drug treatments altered basal levels of whole-body cortisol. The current results of this study suggest that, at least at this dose and time of exposure, taurine does not mitigate the anxiety-producing effects of caffeine when administered in combination, such as with energy drink consumption.

Late endosomal/lysosomal adaptor and MAPK and mTOR activator (LAMTOR/Ragulator) is a scaffold protein complex that anchors and regulates multiprotein signaling units on late endosomes/lysosomes. To identify LAMTOR‐modulated endolysosomal proteins, primary macrophages were derived from bone marrow of conditional knockout mice carrying a specific deletion of LAMTOR2 in the monocyte/macrophage cell lineage. Affymetrix‐based transcriptomic analysis and quantitative iTRAQ‐based organelle proteomic analysis of endosomes derived from macrophages were performed. Further analyses showed that LAMTOR could be a novel regulator of foam cell differentiation. The lipid droplet formation phenotype observed in macrophages was additionally confirmed in MEFs, where lipidomic analysis identified cholesterol esters as specifically downregulated in LAMTOR2 knockout cells. The data obtained indicate a function of LAMTOR2 in lipid metabolism.

Objective

It is typical in epidemiological research of osteoarthritis (OA) to collect data for the hand, hip, and knee. However, little population‐based data exist for this disease in the foot. Thus, we addressed patterns of OA for the foot compared with the hand, hip, and knee spanning 2000/2001 to 2017/2018 in England.

Methods

Secondary‐care data from 3 143 928 patients with OA of the foot, hand, hip, and knee were derived from the National Health Service (NHS) Hospital Episode Statistics (HES) database. Distribution, population prevalence, and incidence of joint‐specific OA were stratified by age and sex.

Results

OA incidence increased significantly at the foot [3.8% (95% confidence interval [CI] 3.0, 4.6)], hand [10.9% (10.1, 11.7)], hip [3.8% (2.9, 4.7)], and knee [2.9% (2.2, 3.6)] per year from 2000/2001 to 2017/2018. A higher proportion of women were diagnosed with OA, whereas greater incidence in men was estimated for the hand and hip. Foot OA presented comparable diagnosis numbers to the hand. More recently during 2012/2013 to 2017/2018, a significant rise in hip OA was estimated among younger adults, whereas knee OA decreased across all age groups. Incidence of OA in the foot and hand were particularly significant among the 75 or older age group, though bimodal age distributions were observed for both sites.

Conclusion

The significant increase in secondary care records for OA in England underscores the importance of exploring possible causative factors and identifying groups most at risk. Further detailed data may be particularly important for the hip, which represents significant incidence among younger adults. Greater incidence of OA in the foot compared with the knee emphasizes the need for well‐conducted epidemiological research in this area. Monitoring the performance of surgical outcomes at the population‐level for this frequently affected yet understudied site could have substantial potential to reduce the socioeconomic burden it represents to the NHS.

Published: August 2019

Thermoelectric technology has attracted great attention due to its ability to recover and convert waste heat into readily available electric energy. Among the various candidate materials, liquid‐like compounds have received tremendous research interest on account of their intrinsically ultralow lattice thermal conductivity, tunable electrical properties, and high thermoelectric performance. Despite their complex phase transitions and diverse crystal structures, liquid‐like materials have two independent sublattices in common: one rigid sublattice formed by immobile ions for the free transport of electrons and one liquid‐like sublattice consisting of highly mobile ions to interrupt the thermal transports. This review first outlines the common structural features of liquid‐like thermoelectrics, along with their unusual electron and phonon transport behaviors that well satisfy the concept of “phonon‐liquid electron‐crystal.” Next, some commonly adopted strategies for further improving their thermoelectric performance are highlighted. The main progress achieved in the typical liquid‐like TE materials is then summarized, with an emphasis on their diverse crystal structures, common characteristics, and unique transport properties. The recent understandings on the stability issue of liquid‐like TE materials are also introduced. Finally, an outlook is given for the liquid‐like materials with the aim to boost further development in this exciting scientific subfield.

The blossoming of organic solar cells (OSCs) has triggered enormous commercial applications, due to their high‐efficiency, light weight, and flexibility. However, the lab‐to‐manufacturing translation of the praisable performance from lab‐scale devices to industrial‐scale modules is still the Achilles' heel of OSCs. In fact, it is urgent to explore the mechanism of morphological evolution in the bulk heterojunction (BHJ) with different coating/printing methods. Here, a general approach to upscale flexible organic photovoltaics to module scale without obvious efficiency loss is demonstrated. The shear impulse during the coating/printing process is first applied to control the morphology evolution of the BHJ layer for both fullerene and nonfullerene acceptor systems. A quantitative transformation factor of shear impulse between slot‐die printing and spin‐coating is detected. Compelling results of morphological evolution, molecular stacking, and coarse‐grained molecular simulation verify the validity of the impulse translation. Accordingly, the efficiency of flexible devices via slot‐die printing achieves 9.10% for PTB7‐Th:PC71BM and 9.77% for PBDB‐T:ITIC based on 1.04 cm2. Furthermore, 15 cm2flexible modules with effective efficiency up to 7.58% (PTB7‐Th:PC71BM) and 8.90% (PBDB‐T:ITIC) are demonstrated with satisfying mechanical flexibility and operating stability. More importantly, this work outlines the shear impulse translation for organic printing electronics.
