Authors: Birawida Agus Bintara , Mallongi Anwar , Satrianegara Fais M. , Khaer Ain , Appolo Appolo , Restu Muhammad
Published: December 2020

BACKGROUND: Many factors can influence the occurrence of dermatitis; this factor is divided into two, namely exogenous and endogenous factors. Fishermen are jobs that are susceptible to disease in dermatitis, especially contact dermatitis in the small island.
AIM: This study aimed to determine the factors associated with the incidence of contact dermatitis in fishermen on the Spermonde islands.
METHODS: This study was an observational analytic study using a cross-sectional design study. This research was conducted on Lae-Lae, Barrang Lompo, and Lumu-Lumu Island in 2019. Samples in this study were 110 fishermen obtained using Accidental sampling techniques. Data collection is using research instruments.
RESULTS: Data analysis performed was univariate and bivariate analysis with a Chi-square test. Based on the results of the study, the research variables related to factors affecting contact dermatitis in fishermen in the Spermonde Islands were a history of skin diseases (p = 0.000), use of PPE (p = 0.000), personal hygiene (p = 0.000), and working period (p = 0.003) while unrelated factors are age (p = 0.373).
CONCLUSION: Fishermen should pay more attention to four factors, namely the history of skin diseases, the use of PPE, hygiene, and work period, to avoid contact dermatitis.

Published: December 2020

Since the end of 2019 until present, coronavirus (CoV) disease (COVID)-2019 has spread globally and caused a pandemic. The disease is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome-2 (SARS-CoV-2). The disease is showed to be less affecting pediatric population. The proportion children suffering from COVID-19 is only around 2% of total cases with only 0.08% mortality rate. Several hypotheses have been proposed regarding this condition. Children are supposed to be less exposed to patients with COVID-19, have lesser amount of angiotensin converting enzyme 2, have different immune response compared to adults, and have faster tissue recovery ability. All of them decrease the possibility of SARS-CoV-2 infection in pediatric population.

Published: December 2020

BACKGROUND: Population that continues to increase is a big problem for countries in the world, especially developing countries. One of the problems in the management of family planning programs is the high level of unmet need for family planning in Indonesia. Unmet need is the number of couples of childbearing age who want to postpone pregnancy or do not want additional children but do not use birth control methods.
AIM: The aim of the study was to determine the determinants of the occurrence of unmet need in fertile age couples in the West Bulotadaa Village, Gorontalo City.
METHODS: The study design was cross-sectional with a sample of 146 fertile age couples selected by systematic random sampling. Data collection was made, using questionnaires containing questions from the research variables. Data were analyzed by multiple logistic regression analysis through the SPSS for windows program.
RESULTS: The visit of KB officers affected the unmet need with p = 0.032 (p < 0.05) with OR = 2.893, and there were some variables that were not significant such as the age variable p = 0.766 (p > 0.05), family income p = 0.189 (p > 0.05), distance of family planning services p = 0.057 (p > 0.05), and cost of contraception p = 0.632 (p > 0.05).
CONCLUSION: It was concluded that the visit of family planning officers affected the unmet need and age, family income, distance to the place of family planning services and the cost of contraceptives did not affect the incidence of unmet need in West Bulotadaa, Gorontalo City.
Medical Travel and Public Health
Authors: Alnakhi Wafa K.
Published: December 2020

The medical travel market industry is growing as millions of people are crossing borders to seek healthcare services every year. Yet there is not sufficient empirical research around medical travel. People typically call all medical travelers “medical tourists,” a practice that is not helpful. Therefore, from a public health perspective, it is important to understand the definition of medical travel, the motivations behind travel, and how to overcome public health challenges that may occur as a result of this practice. Since medical travel is an experience that does not finish with obtaining health services, it is important to gather medical travelers' profiles before and after they access healthcare services. This will allow healthcare professionals to follow medical travelers' outcomes and assess their health-related quality of life. A robust evidence base will promote better future decisions related to medical travel. Creating an evidence base for medical travel will support upstream policies and strategies aimed at regulating the medical travel market.

INTERVENÇÃO EM PSICOSSOCIOLOGIA: A CONSTRUÇÃO DA ESCUTA E A IMPLICAÇÃO NAS ORGANIZAÇÕES
Authors: Viana Braz Matheus , Mariani Casadore Marcos , Hashimoto Francisco
Published: December 2020

A psicossociologia oferece um arcabouço teórico-metodológico profícuo à compreensão e exploração das relações entre os conflitos vividos no cenário laboral atual, o sofrimento dos trabalhadores e as contradições organizacionais. Nessa esteira, o objetivo desse estudo é compreender como se dá a construção do trabalho de escuta em intervenções psicossociológicas nas organizações e elucidar qual o papel da implicação do interventor e dos próprios trabalhadores nesse contexto. Como os autores desse trabalho conduzem intervenções psicossociológicas em organizações públicas e privadas, os dados explorados provêm de suas práticas cotidianas, a partir do método das ‘reminiscências dos pesquisadores’ e mediante abordagem qualitativa e descritiva. Para além do tempo cronológico e para possibilitar a superação da intervenção pela via estrita da objetificação dos comportamentos, nas organizações esse trabalho compreende a construção de uma escuta que se operacionaliza em dois momentos distintos: ‘do acolhimento e retorno à historicidade, e das elaborações mais direcionadas à atividade produtiva de cada trabalhador’. A implicação, por sua vez, não representa um obstáculo metodológico a ser neutralizado, senão que se desvela um componente fundamental à consolidação do vínculo com os trabalhadores, contando que ela seja reconhecida e devidamente trabalhada. A empatia, a sensibilidade, o reconhecimento do outro e de suas diferenças, a superação de modelos ideais e cristalizados, bem como a implicação na realização de um trabalho efetivo que abra espaço para interrogações críticas, constituem ingredientes fundamentais dessas intervenções.

Published: December 2020

O objetivo deste trabalho foi descrever como os profissionais operacionalizam os projetos terapêuticos singulares (PTS) em Centros de Atenção Psicossocial. Para isso, foi desenvolvida uma pesquisa de abordagem qualitativa de caráter descritivo e exploratório com 58 profissionais de sete Centros de Atenção Psicossocial situados em três municípios do Estado de Goiás, Brasil. A coleta de dados foi feita por meio de grupos focais e registros em diário de campo submetidos à análise temática de conteúdo. A análise dos dados revelou as seguintes categorias temáticas: processos de trabalho relacionados ao Projeto Terapêutico Singular; Influência da lógica ambulatorial no Projeto Terapêutico Singular. Sendo assim, foi revelada a percepção da importância dos PTS para os profissionais, mas a falta de organização e sistematização dos mesmos, sendo que a sua realização sequer existia em alguns dos serviços pesquisados. Concluímos que os profissionais reconhecem a lógica dos projetos terapêuticos singulares como importante para refletir cuidado psicossocial, entretanto a elaboração ainda é precária, médico-centrada e as ofertas de atividades terapêuticas restritas ao interior dos Centros de Atenção Psicossociais. A realidade evidenciada aponta para a necessidade de investimento em Educação Permanente em Saúde para qualificar os processos de trabalho nos CAPS desenvolvidos pelos diversos profissionais que neles atuam, por meio da sistematização dos PTS, de modo a garantir cuidado psicossocial como promotor de cuidado em liberdade. Isso possibilitará maior efetividade de reinserção social e, ainda, a avaliação dos resultados obtidos.

Munca într-o lume a viitorului. Perspective și provocări pentru psihologi
Authors: Aniței Mihai
Published: December 2020

Schimbările rapide ce au loc la începutul secolului al XXl-lea își pun puternic amprenta asupra specificului și particularităților proceselor de muncă, psihologia fiind confruntată cu provocări și probleme greu de anticipat în deceniile trecute. Astfel, în secolul XXI, psihologia va avea un rol decisiv in menținerea și stimularea productivității, eficienței, dar și stării de bine a angajaților, iar oferirea de răspunsuri practice în vederea adaptării la noile realități apărute în sfera muncii va deveni esențială. Globalizarea, utilizarea extensivă a noilor tehnologii de comunicare, ritmul alert al capacității de inovare precum și emergența societății cunoașterii determină apariția unor mutații semnificative în sfera muncii, facilitând apariția unor noi realități organizaționale ori industriale. Echipele și organizațiile virtuale, ori cele intensiv-cognitive, lucrătorul cunoașterii, angajatul virtual ori munca intr-un mediu impredictibil și eterogen cultural reprezintă doar o serie dintre provocările pe care viitorul le va oferi psihologilor. Iar mobilitatea ridicată a angajatului, nivelul de stres din ce in ce mai ridicat, workoholismul, ori izolarea din ce in ce mai puternică - o serie din consecințele psihologice pe care lucrul într-o lume a viitorului le va presupune. Pornind de la aceste considerente, lucrarea își propune să realizeze o trecere în revistă a principalelor schimbări ce vor avea loc in cadrul activităților de muncă în următoarele decenii, trasând direcții clare de analiză și de intervenție atât pentru psihologie, din perspectivă teoretică și științifică, cât și pentru psihologi, avându-se in vedere intervenții aplicative, cu puternic caracter practic.

The concept of school evaluation has known over the years multiple approaches, which demonstrates the complexity of this process so important for the proper conduct of an educational approach. In the present article we study school evaluation in relation to the inter- occurring between teacher and student, studied from the perspective of game theory. We consider it pertinent analysis of evaluative approach in terms of the influence they exert on its relationship with subjective connotations -elev teacher, contextualized the particularities of each of the two educational actors. In the present paper, we propose a model of game theory, players are teacher and student. The purpose of this model is to demonstrate the theoretically how the two actors educational reach an agreement on the decisions you will make in terms of pupil assessment by the teacher.

Authors: Dumbravă Andrei Cosmin
Published: December 2020

As we can see the significant increase in the number of video games on the market, but also an increase in the number of people who choose to relax in a virtual world at the expense of reality. In this context, present study has the primary objective of discovering whether any of the Big Five personality components can predict gaming addiction. A total of 137 respondents aged between 10 and 55 participated in the data collection. As a result of the data analysis, the neuroticism factor explains 28% of the gaming addiction variable (R2 = .28, p <0.01) and the introversion factor variance explains 4% of the gaming addiction variable (R2 = .04, p <0.05). The rest of the personality factors did not correlate significantly with the gaming addiction variable. The types of video games did not moderate the relationship between emotional stability and gaming addiction.
Predispoziția spre structurare obsesiv-compulsivă la militari
Authors: Arseni-Trican Georgiana
Published: December 2020

The main objective of this paper is to identify the combined effect of the training in the millitary (self-perceived), parental relations (self-perceived) and attachment style on soldier’s obsessive-compulsive personality structure. The secondary objectives are to find the relation between each independent variable – training in the millitary (self-perceived), parental relations (self-perceived) and attachment style – and obsessive-compulsive personality structure. The participants were 82 male officers and 12 female officers. The obtained data supported the hypotheses regarding the differences between officers from land forces academy and those from technical academy. Considering the hypotheses with reference to significant correlations and prediction ability of the independent variables on obssesive-compulsive personality structure, they were partially confirmed. Specifically, significant effects were identified only on some dimensions of obssesive-compulsive personality structure, like: hipercorectness, ritualic tendencies and verifications.
Predictors of performance at the Baccalaureate in Romania. A Pilot Study
Authors: Ionescu Cezar Valentin
Published: December 2020

The aim of the present study is to examine the predictors of performance on the Romanian Bacalaureat (BAC). The study analyses the relationship between the composite BAC score as the criterion and several psychological attributes as the predictors: general cognitive ability, emotional intelligence, learning motivation, grit, conscientiousness, self-regulation, and the hours spent on exam preparation. Data analysis reveals the fact that intelligence does not predict BAC performance at all. The same result also holds for the association between BAC performance and emotional intelligence or motivation. Self-regulation, conscientiousness and grit are trivially, yet not statistically significant associated with BAC performance. Even the number of hours spent on exam preparation donot predict BAC performance.Taking these results into account, it is crucial to explain why no statistically significant association was obtained between the predictors and criterion. In the author’s mind, the findings should sound a warning with regard to the exam held in Romania when one graduates high school.
The role of locus of control and self-perception in the relationship between cyberbullying and depression, anxiety and stress in emerging adults
Authors: Popoviciu Cătălina Maria
Published: December 2020

The present study aims at identifying the mediator role of the self-perception and the moderator role of locus of control in the relationship between cyberbullying and depression, anxiety, and stress symptoms. Seventy-two emerging adults between 20 to 25 years old were included in the study, filling in a series of measuring instruments for cyberbullying, self-perception, locus of control and depression, anxiety, and stress symptoms. The results were statistically significant in terms of the role of self-perception as mediator in the relationship between cyber-victimization and depressive symptoms. Moreover, statistical results show that the global self-worth dimension of the self-perception construct and the school competence dimension are also mediators of the relationship between cyber-victimization and depressive symptoms. An increased level of cyber-victimization causes a low level of self-perception, which will cause an increased level of depression, anxiety, and stress symptoms. As regards the moderator role of locus of control, the results were not statistically significant in the case of the sample included in the study, locus of control does not moderate the relationship between cyberbullying and depression, anxiety and stress symptoms.
The circular relationship between job satisfaction and job performance mediated by psychological capital
Authors: Get Wasim
Published: December 2020

The present study aims, on the one hand, to verify whether PsyCap as a second-order construct has a higher mediation effect than each of its four components taken as separate mediators (efficacy, hope, resilience, optimism) in the relationship between job satisfaction and job performance. The second objective was to compare two mediation models. In the first model PsyCap mediates the relationship between job satisfaction and job performance and in the second model PsyCap mediates the relationship between job performance and job satisfaction. The participants were 280 employees in Romanian organizations aged between 18 and 68, M = 32.96, AS = 10.10. Three questionnaires were used: Psychological Capital Questionnaire (PCQ), Goodman and Svyantek Performance Scale, and The Generic Job Satisfaction Scale. The results showed that indeed the mediation estimates for PsyCap were higher than the estimates for its four components, regardless of the direction of the satiation-performance relationship. At the same time, through psychological capital, job satisfaction determines an increase in job performance, and job performance determines an increase in job satisfaction.
The role of Emotion Regulation on the link between False Memory and Decision Making
Authors: Voicu Tiana , Busuioc Andrada , Chirilă Alexandra , Nedelcu Maria
Published: December 2020

Current research is based on an experimental two-stage condition. The main objective is to investigate how false memories influence the decision making process, but also the role of emotional regulation in the mentioned relationship. The experiment is based on the DRM paradigm. Participants were aged 18-50 and were divided into two experimental groups. The study investigates both everyday life decision making strategies and those involving taking risks, according to Prospect Theory. The results show that false memories influence decision making process, especially regarding risky ones, but did not support the moderating role of emotion regulation in decision making process under the condition of false memories. The implications of research highlight both the people’s suggestibility and the type of emotional state they should have in order to maintain their trust on false memories.

The present study investigates the effect of negative emotions (focusing on disappointment, sadness and regret) on cognitive schemas. The sample consist in students from the University of Bucharest (convenience groups). A univariate unifactorial experimental design was used, as the current study had one independent variable, negative emotions, and a dependent variable, cognitive schemas, which was measured with the Core Beliefs Questionnaire instrument. We applied T test for independent samples, using SPSS. The t test was statistically significant, t (45) = 2.57, p <0.05. The confidence interval (95%) for the difference between the averages is between 2.95 and 24.35. After applying the intervention, the evaluated sample (M = 43.17, SD = 29,074) showed a statistically significant difference compared to the control group (M = 29.52, SD = 11.257). The data collected support the main research hypothesis of the study, negative emotions can bring about changes in certain cognitive schemas by modifying, altering or disrupting them.
El Max Weber del exilio republicano en la sociología latinoamericana
Authors: A. Escobar Luis , J. Ribes Alberto
Published: December 2020

El artículo repone algunas intervenciones del exilio español en Latinoamérica, particularmente de Francisco Ayala y José Medina Echavarría, en un periodo que abarca de 1940 a 1955, para observar y analizar desde sus trayectorias, trazos de una historia social de lecturas y acciones sobre la obra de Weber en Latinoamérica, previa y casi paralela a la imposición del “consenso ortodoxo” en la región, enfatizando lo que podemos considerar las condiciones materiales y simbólicas de la circulación y recepción weberiana. La cartografía de una accidentada historia de las ciencias sociales latinoamericanas muestra la necesidad de reconstruir zonas intelectuales más vastas e inexploradas, en diálogos regionales y teóricos, para aportar un mapa más abierto y complejo sobre la modernización de las ciencias sociales y de la sociología en particular.
Yahyâ b. Ziyâd el-Ferrâ’nın “Ma‘âni’l-Kur’ân” Adlı Eserinde Dil-Kültür İlişkisi
Authors: AKBAŞ Rıfat
Published: December 2020

İslâm coğrafyasının genişlemesi neticesinde Arap olmayan toplulukların İslâm dini ile tanışmaları beraberinde bir takım problemleri de getirmiştir. Bu problemler arasında, Kur’ân’ın yanlış anlaşılma endişesi en başı çekmektedir. Arapçaya hâkim olmamaktan kaynaklanan dil hatalarının âyetlere kadar sirayet ettiğini gösteren birçok rivayetin varlığı da bunu teyit etmektedir. Bundan dolayı hicrî birinci yüzyılın ikinci yarısından itibaren dil ile ilgili faaliyetler aralıksız bir şekilde devam etmiştir. Bu faaliyetler arasında, Kur’ân’ın üslûbunu, âyetlerde yer alan kelimelerin delâleti ve sesletimini, cümlelerin iç bütünlüğü ile filolojik tahlillerini ele alan çalışmalar bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmalar, Arap gramerinin oluşturulması ve bazı gramer ekollerinin ortaya çıkmasıyla birlikte genellikle “Ma‘âni’l-Ḳur’ân” ve “İ‘râbü’l-Ḳur’ân” başlıkları kullanılarak daha sistemli bir şekilde hicri dördüncü yüzyılın sonlarına kadar devam etmiştir.
“Ma‘âni’l-Ḳur’ân” başlığını kullanarak eser yazan âlimler arasında gramer ilmiyle birlikte tefsir alanında da önemli bir konuma sahip olan Yahyâ b. Ziyâd el-Ferrâ (öl. 207/822) da bulunmaktadır. Sözü edilen eserde Ferrâ’nın, lügavî (filolojik) tahlilleri esnasında özellikle sözcüklerin siygası (morfemi) ve çok anlamlılığı doğrultusunda dil-kültür ilişkisine örnek olabilecek birçok bireysel değerlendirmesine rastlanılmaktadır. Onun bazı ayetler etrafında sergilenen çeşitli görüşlere yer verdikten sonra Arap toplumu nezdinde bir yönüyle de bile olsa kabul gören semantik tahlillere ayrıca yer vermesi, müfessirlerin, çoğu zaman anlaşılması güç ayetlerle birlikte murad edilenin dışında bir yorumun önlenmesi için dönemin kültüründen yararlanmaları gerektiği şeklinde de değerlendirilebilir. Bu bakımdan Kur’ân-ı Kerîm’in insanlığa sunduğu mesajların en doğru şekilde anlaşılabilmesi adına bazı âyetlerin tefsiri ve değerlendirmesi yapılırken başvurulacak ilmî merci ve disiplinlerin geniş tutulması önem arz etmektedir.
Binâenaleyh makalede Ferrâ’nın kendisine özgü tahlilleriyle beraber, görüşlerine yer verdiği başka âlimlerin analizlerinden sadece dil-kültür ilişkisine örnek olabilecek tespitler üzerinde durularak kültür ve dil etkileşiminin âyet yorumundaki rolüne işaret edilecektir.

Localization in Wireless Sensor Network Using MDS
Authors: Agrawal Rashmi , Patel Brajesh
Published: December 2020

In this paper, determining the localization of nodes in a Wireless Sensor Network is a very important task, which involves collaboration between sensor nodes. Localization is a fundamental service since it is relevant to many applications and to the network main functions, such as: routing, communication, cluster creation, network coverage, etc. Collaboration is essential to self-localization, so that localization can be accomplished by the nodes themselves, without any human intervention. In this paper, we first analyze the key aspects that have to be considered when designing or choosing a solution for the localization problem. Then, we present MDS localization algorithm. With this analysis of results simulated. We identified the results in topologies by taking different cases and we have addresses shortcomings, which are caused by anisotropic network topology
and complex terrain, of existing sensor positioning methods. Then, we explore the idea of using multidimensional scaling technique to compute relative positions of sensors in a wireless sensor network. A distributed sensor positioning method based on multidimensional scaling is proposed to get the accurate position estimation and reduce error cumulation. Comparing with other positioning methods, with very few anchors, our approach can accurately estimate the sensors’ positions in network with anisotropic topology and complex terrain as well as eliminate measurement error cumulation. We also propose an on demand position estimation method based on
multidimensional scaling for one or several adjacent sensors positioning. Experimental results indicate that our distributed method for sensor position estimation is very effective and efficient.
Effective Analysis of Different Parameters in Ad hoc Network for Different Protocols
Authors: Manoj Kumar , Sharma S. C. , s Chandra
Published: December 2020

A wireless Ad-hoc network consists of wireless nodes communicating without the need for a centralized administration, in which all nodes potentially contribute to the routing process. A user can move anytime in an ad hoc scenario and, as a result, such a network needs to have routing protocols which can adopt dynamically changing topology. To accomplish this, a number of ad hoc routing protocols have been proposed and implemented, which include Dynamic Source Routing (DSR), ad hoc on-demand distance vector (AODV) routing, and temporally ordered routing algorithm (TORA).
In this paper, we analyze the performance differentials to compare the above-mentioned commonly used ad hoc network routing protocols. We report the simulation results of four different scenarios for wireless ad hoc networks having thirty nodes. The performances of proposed networks are evaluated in terms of number of hops per route, re transmission attempts, traffic sent, traffic received and throughput with the help of OPNET simulator. Channel speed 11Mbps and simulation time 20 minutes were taken. For this above simulation environment, TORA shows better performance over the two on-demand protocols, that is, DSR and AODV
Performance of mobile IPv6 with different route optimization scheme
Authors: Mathur Manoj , Malik Sunita , Arora Prince
Published: December 2020

Mobile Internet Protocol version 4, in which the main problem is triangle routing. Mobile node deliver packets to a corresponding node directly but when corresponding
node sends packet to the mobile node packet comes to foreign agent via home agent then it comes to mobile node. This asymmetry is called triangle routing. It leads to many
problems, like load on the network and delay in delivering packets. The next generation IPv6 is designed to overcome this kind of problem (triangle routing). MIPv6 support host moves from one access point to another access point. To solve the triangle routing problem different route optimization schemes are used which exclude the inefficient routing paths by creating the shortest routing path. These are Liebsch’s Route optimization scheme, Light Weight Route optimization scheme & enhanced light weight route optimization scheme. In this paper I have consider only Light Weight Route
optimization scheme & enhanced light weight route optimization scheme. I have taken Throughput and Packet delivery fraction, end to end delay & round trip time
.Performance metrics to compare these two schemes by using NS-2 simulations. Throughput is the rate of communications per unit time. Packet delivery fraction (PDF) is the ratio of the data packets delivered to the destinations to those generated by the CBR sources. End to end delay includes all possible delays caused by buffering, re transmission delay & propagation & transfer times of data packets. Round-trip time
is the time required for a signal pulse or packet to travel from a specific source to a specific destination and back again. By using these parameters I have found that enhanced light weight route optimization scheme performance is better than Light Weight Route optimization scheme.
The Arctic Lobby in Japan: Structures, Mechanisms of Infl uence and the Role in Developing Cooperation with the Russian Federation
Authors: Polkhova E. V. , Sergunin A. A.
Published: December 2020

Japan’s Arctic strategy, particularly its geopolitical and economic aspects, has been thoroughly reviewed by both Russian and foreign experts. However, the structures and mechanisms behind this strategy remain somewhat obscure. This paper is intended to partially fill this gap by resorting to the study of the Japanese Arctic lobby. The authors identify the key interest groups which stand for an active Arctic policy and for cooperation with the Russian Federation in that regard. These include, in particular, the energy sector representatives that sought to take part in the construction of liquefied natural gas (LNG) plants. The decision of the Japanese government to join the Western anti-Russian sanctions disrupted these plans. However, the adoption of S. Abe’s 8-points plan in 2016 opened up new opportunities for the Russia-Japan Arctic cooperation. Yet another two groups of interest are equally interested in strengthening bilateral relations — shipping and ship-building industries. They also suffered from anti-Russian sanctions but now they are actively engaged in the construction of the LNG jetties near Murmansk and in Kamchatka. There is also a growing interest towards the Arctic region within the fishery industry — a very important sector of Japan’s economy. Cooperation with Russia increases Tokyo’s capacity to participate in the creation of international legal regime of fisheries in the Central Arctic ocean. Finally, the authors identify another important element of the Japanese Arctic lobby — regional elites. In that regard, they examine activities of the Hokkaido prefecture to engage in development of the Northern Sea Route. The paper examines the key mechanisms used by the Arctic lobby to influence the authorities, including sectoral, regional and national business associations, research and educational centers and mass media, as well as ‘built-in lobby’ in relevant ministries and agencies responsible for making and implementing Tokyo’s Arctic policies. The authors conclude that, although the Arctic lobby is unable to persuade the Government to remove anti-Russian sanctions altogether, elaboration of a selective strategy of cooperation with the Japanese business community could strengthen bilateral relations and provide new opportunities for exploiting natural resources of the Far North and developing the Russian Arctic.

The tidal range is a renewable energy source. In Malaysia, most of the produced renewable energy is generated from the exploitation of the tidal range. The main purpose of this research is to determine a suitable system to produce tidal range energy from a potential site. A turbine selection chart is used. The mean tidal range of Kuching Barrage is 4.2m and the maximum flow rate over a gate is 226.9m3/s. Therefore, for the extraction of electrical power, a bulb-type turbine with a rated power of 5.2MW is identified as suitable to be deployed at the site.

Published: December 2020

The university course timetabling problem looks for the best schedule, to satisfy given criteria as a set of given resources, which may contain lecturers, groups of students, classrooms, or laboratories. Developing a timetable is a fundamental requirement for the healthy functioning of all educational and administrative parts of an academic institution. However, factors such as the availability of hours, the number of subjects, and the allocation of teachers make the timetable problem very complex. This study intends to review several optimization algorithms that could be applied as possible solutions for the university student course timetable problem. The reviewed algorithms take into account the demands of institutional constraints for course timetable management.

The Economic Consequences of Conflict in Sub-Saharan Africa
Authors: Fang Xiangming , Kothari Siddharth , McLoughlin Cameron , Yenice Mustafa
Published: December 2020

Sub-Saharan Africa has been marred by conflicts during the past several decades. While the intensity of conflicts in recent years is lower than that observed in the 1990s, the region remains prone to conflicts, with around 30 percent of the countries affected in 2019. In addition to immeasurable human suffering, conflicts impose large economic costs. On average, annual growth in countries in intense conflicts is about 2.5 percentage points lower, and the cumulative impact on per capita GDP increases over time. Furthermore, conflicts pose significant strains on countries’ public finances, lowering revenue, raising military spending, and shifting resources away from development and social spending.
External Financing Dependence and Corporate Saving in ASEAN5
Authors: Li Xin
Published: December 2020

Using firm-level data on ASEAN5, this paper studies the differential effects of macro-financial and structural factors on corporate saving behavior through the lens of external financing dependence. The finding suggests that non-financial corporations in ASEAN5 have been subject to binding financial constraints over the past two decades. Greater capital account openness or exchange rate depreciation reduces the average saving rate of industries with low dependence on external funds, while it increases the saving rate of industries with high dependence on external funds. The effects are greater for export-oriented industries. An improvement in banking sector competition, banksâ€™ lending efficiency, or policy clarity is associated with lower saving rate of firms across the board.
COVID-19 and the CPI
Authors: Reinsdorf Marshall
Published: December 2020

COVID-19 changed consumers’ spending patterns, making the CPI weights suddenly obsolete. In most regions, adjusting the CPI weights to account for the changes in spending patterns increases the estimate of inflation over the early months of the pandemic. Under-weighting of rising food prices and over-weighting of falling transport prices are the main causes of the underestimation of inflation. Updated CPI weights should be developed as soon as is feasible, but flux in spending patterns during the pandemic complicates the development as quickly as 2021 of weights that represent post-pandemic spending patterns.
Climate Mitigation Policy in Denmark
Authors: Batini Nicoletta , Parry Ian , Wingender Philippe
Published: December 2020

Denmark has a highly ambitious goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions 70 percent below 1990 levels by 2030. While there is general agreement that carbon pricing should be the centerpiece of Denmark’s mitigation strategy, pricing needs to be effective, address equity and leakage concerns, and be reinforced by additional measures at the sectoral level. The strategy Denmark develops can be a good prototype for others to follow. This paper discusses mechanisms to scale up domestic carbon pricing, compensate households, and possibly combine pricing with a border carbon adjustment. It also recommends the use of revenue-neutral feebate schemes to strengthen mitigation incentives, particularly for transportation and agriculture, fisheries and forestry, though these schemes could also be applied more widely.
Stress Testing U.S. Leveraged Corporates in a COVID-19 World
Authors: Caceres Carlos , Cerdeiro Diego , Pan Dan , Tambunlertchai Suchanan
Published: December 2020

This paper analyzes a group of 755 firms, with aggregate indebtedness of US$6.2 trillion, to assess the solvency risks and liquidity needs facing the U.S. corporate sector based on projections of net income, availability and cost of funding, and debt servicing flows under different stress test scenarios. The paper finds that leveraged corporates account for most of the potential losses arising from the macroeconomic stresses associated with the COVID-19 crisis, with a concentration of these losses in the oil and gas, auto, and capital and durable goods manufacturing sectors. However, potential losses from corporate debt write-downs appear to be a fraction of banks’ capital buffers and, given the size of the leveraged segment and the relatively long duration of that sector’s debt, the near-term liquidity needs of these corporates appear modest. Corporate stresses could, however, amplify the current economic downturn—as firms cut investment spending and reduce employment—potentially giving rise to significant indirect losses for the financial system.

Course Material Adaptation for Content and Language Integrated Learning
Authors: Lászlóné Kántor
Published: December 2020

Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) – as a form of education when students learn non-language subjects in an additional language – had already existed in ancient times, but the term itself was adopted in 1994. The driving force behind its development in Europe was the birth of the European Union. If European citizens want to enjoy the benefits of an integrated Europe, they need to be able to communicate at least in one foreign language. According to the European Commission, CLIL is one of the innovative methods capable of improving the quality of language teaching. One of the obstacles to the general implementation of CLIL was initially the lack of appropriate teaching materials. It was examined whether there is adequate course material available for teaching first aid in English. The document analysis revealed that there is no suitable course material. A five-hour first aid course was held for Grade 8 students at three bilingual primary schools in Budapest. To do this, an introductory, a theoretical, a practical, a summary, and an assessment lesson were developed. This article presents the steps of course material development for Content and Language Integrated Learning and illustrates it with practical examples.
