Proses Transformasi Penyebarluasan Konten Radio Siaran (Studi Kasus Tentang Proses Transformasi Penyebarluasan Konten Siaran melalui Radio Streaming di Radio Ardan 105.9 FM)
Authors: Arief Mohamad
Published: January 2019

The research is motivated by the development of broadcasting technology marked by the adoption of streaming radio as an alternative media besides analogous radio. With the presence of streaming technology the change or transformation in dispersing broadcast content is made possible. The mechanism to present and deliver information resulting from this creative process was the focus of the research. This research was approached qualitatively applying case study method. The research questions were centered around the technical policy of radio station’s management in the process of dispersion transformation of the content of the broadcasting radio through streaming radio, the reasons for choosing streaming radio to disperse content, the streaming broadcast patterns, and whether it is necessary or not to apply rules/regulations in the process of dispersion transformation of the content of the broadcasting radio station. The research was conducted at Ardan Radio Bandung. The research interview was done from May to June 2016. Ardan Radio Bandung was chosen as the research object because as the biggest radio station in Bandung, Ardan was thought to have made a breakthrough by using internet technology for its broadcasting operation in order to extend its coverage. It adopted streaming technology along with social media application (facebook, twitter, instagram, path) to support its broadcasting activities. The research’s conclusion was that technical policy of radio station’s management in the process of dispersion transformation of the content of the broadcasting radio through streaming radio or internet supported the ongoing transformation process. The dispersion transformation of the content of the broadcasting radio through streaming radio or internet was proven a strategic and tactical initiative in response to technological development, which has made way for the adoption of internet as media. The dispersion transformation of the content of the broadcasting radio and the broadcast patterns through streaming radio in Ardan Radio were executed by way of splitting 2 live broadcast contents which were then transmitted through analogous radio (on air) and live streaming. It is necessary to apply regulations/rules in the process of the dispersion transformation of the content of the broadcasting radio. The government and other institutions control and give constructive guidance through media regulations.

The Impact of Expressive Writing on Math Anxiety in Preservice School Teachers
Authors: Shrewsbury James Thomas , Dykeman Cass , Griffin Linda
Published: January 2019

Elementary school math teachers are among the most highly math-anxious professionals across fields. They unknowingly pass on to students their math phobia. Research on interventions to help this population are needed to interrupt this cycle. Such studies, however, do not exist. There is growing evidence that expressive writing helps students with math anxiety. It is hypothesized that expressive writing may benefit math-anxious teacher candidates to overcome their fear of math. This original study advanced the scholarship by exploring the impact of expressive writing in highly math-anxious teacher candidates. The multi-probe, multiple baseline design was used for this single case study with two arms. A total of six highly math-anxious teacher candidates took part in this online study. Dependent variables included math anxiety, causal word usage, and insight word usage. Data analysis methods included visual inspection of graphed data, mathematical calculations to determine baseline stability, use of Tau-U to examine between-phase differences, and use of Theil Sen to examine slope differences. Unexpected results were found. Arm A participants (n = 3) exhibited a reduction in their math anxiety levels while Arm B (n = 3) participants did not. For both arms, slope estimate results of causal and insight words were nonsignificant. Cognitive avoidance and disorganized narratives best explain the negative results. While the mixed results give modest support to existing research on expressive writing, it is noteworthy that three out of six participants appeared to benefit from the intervention. Limitations of the current study and recommendations for future research are provided.
Age-Related Differences in Recall and Recognition: A Meta Analysis
Authors: Rhodes Stephen , Greene Nathaniel R. , Naveh-Benjamin Moshe
Published: January 2019

Relative to younger adults, older adults tend to perform more poorly on tests of both free recall and item recognition memory. The age difference in performance is typically larger for recall tasks relative to those involving recognition. However, there have been reports of comparable age-related differences in free recall and item recognition performance. Further, a differential performance cost does not necessarily mean that processes involved in recall are specifically affected by age. Here we present a meta-analysis of 36 articles reporting 89 direct comparisons of free recall and item recognition in younger and older groups of participants. Standardized effect sizes reveal that age differences are larger for recall tasks (Hedges' g = 0.89, 95% confidence intervals [0.75, 1.03]) than for recognition tasks (0.54, [0.37, 0.72]). Further, Brinley analyses of the data suggest that distinct functions are needed to relate younger and older performance for the two tasks. These functions differ in intercept pointing to a disproportionate age difference in recall relative to recognition. This is in line with theories of memory and aging which posit specific deficits in processes related to search and retrieval from memory.
Investigating the role of psychogenic shivers in mental health
Authors: Schoeller Felix , Krishnakumar Anirudh
Published: January 2019

The presence of shivering and psychogenic shivering in mental health was measured using a compiled database including the DSM-5 and a large body of existing assessment tools and technology. We found results for chills, tremors, and temperature. None of the other shiver-related terms (N=9) yielded any results, which suggests that the role of psychogenic shivering in mental health has been largely understudied by physicians and psychiatrists. Based on the results and the data extracted from a complete database of the literature devoted to psychogenic shivers in cognitive neuroscience, we outline the importance of psychogenic shivering in the assessment of mental health in a clinical setting. We discuss how the tools introduced in this article could be developed further to gather new clinical data about both shivers and health.
Both semantic diversity and frequency influence children’s sentence reading
Authors: Pagan Ascension , Bird Megan , Hsiao Yaling , Nation Kate
Published: January 2019

Semantic diversity – a metric that captures variations in previous contextual experience with a word – influences children’s lexical decision and reading aloud. We investigated the effects of semantic diversity and frequency on children’s reading of words embedded in sentences, while eye movements were recorded. If semantic diversity and frequency reflect different aspects of experience that influence reading in different ways, they should show independent effects and perhaps even different processing signatures during reading. Forty-nine 9-year-olds read sentences containing high/low frequency and high/low diversity words, manipulated orthogonally. We observed independent main effects of both variables, with high frequency and high semantic diversity words being read more easily in target word analyses. Sentence-level analyses indicated that semantic diversity influenced the overall ease of sentence processing whereas frequency did not. These results show that variations in the amount and nature of contextual experience influence how easily words are processed during reading
Priming intuition disfavors instrumental harm but not impartial beneficence
Authors: Capraro Valerio , Everett Jim Albert Charlton , Earp Brian D.
Published: January 2019

Understanding the cognitive underpinnings of moral judgment is one of most pressing problems in psychological science. Some highly-cited studies suggest that reliance on intuition decreases utilitarian (expected welfare maximizing) judgments in sacrificial moral dilemmas in which one has to decide whether to instrumentally harm (IH) one person to save a greater number of people. However, recent work suggests that such dilemmas are limited in that they fail to capture the positive, defining core of utilitarianism: commitment to impartial beneficence (IB). Accordingly, a new two-dimensional model of utilitarian judgment has been proposed that distinguishes IH and IB components. The role of intuition on this new model has not been studied. Does relying on intuition disfavor utilitarian choices only along the dimension of instrumental harm or does it also do so along the dimension of impartial beneficence? To answer this question, we conducted three studies (total N = 970, two preregistered) using conceptual priming of intuition versus deliberation on moral judgments. Our evidence converges on an interaction effect, with intuition decreasing utilitarian judgments in IH—as suggested by previous work—but failing to do so in IB. These findings bolster the recently proposed two-dimensional model of utilitarian moral judgment, and point to new avenues for future research.
Implicit alcohol-related expectancies and the effect of context
Authors: Monk Rebecca , Pennington Charlotte Rebecca , Campbell Claire , Price Alan , Heim Derek
Published: January 2019

Objective: The current study examined the impact of varying pictorial cues and testing contexts on implicit alcohol-related expectancies. Method: Seventy-six participants were assigned randomly to complete an Implicit Relational Assessment Procedure (IRAP) in either a pub or lecture context. The IRAP exposed participants to pictorial cues that depicted an alcoholic beverage in the foreground of a pub (alcohol-congruent stimuli) or university lecture theater (alcohol-incongruent stimuli), and participants were required to match both positive and negative alcohol-related outcome expectancies to these stimuli. Corresponding to a 4 × 2 design, IRAP trial types were included in the analysis as repeated-measure variables, whereas testing environment was input as a between-participants variable. Results: Participants more readily endorsed that drinking alcohol was related to positive expectancies when responding to alcohol-congruent stimuli, and this was strengthened when participants completed the task in a pub. Moreover, they more readily confirmed that alcohol was related to negative expectancies when responding to alcohol-incongruent stimuli. Conclusions: These findings suggest that alcohol-related cues and environmental contexts may be a significant driver of positive alcohol-related cognitions, which may have implications for the design of interventions. They emphasize further the importance of examining implicit cognitions in ecologically valid testing contexts.

Abstract
Insurance is a legal term (legal term) used in legislation and insurance companies. The term insurance comes from the word "insurance" which means insurance or protection of an object from the threat of danger that causes loss. Insurance institutions are known in Indonesia since the entry of European countries to Indonesia. Insurance institutions officially enter Indonesia since the enactment of the Criminal Procedure Code which applies to Indonesia on the basis of the concordance principle contained in Stb. 1943 No. 23 which was promulgated on April 30, 1947, and entered into force on May 11, 1948. This type of research is normative juridical and analytical descriptive in nature. Sources of data obtained in this study through secondary data, and data analysis in the study using qualitative data analysis. Based on the results of research conducted by the author, insurance companies are only responsible for losses suffered by policyholders, if the loss is not made due to intentional. In agreements between insurance companies and agents, each has rights and obligations that must be carried out in good faith. Dispute settlement agency agreement is carried out with 4 stages, first, deliberation stage, second, warning stage, third, unilateral termination stage, fourth, compensation stage.

The process of community construction and organization, and social management in southern Vietnam: advantages and challenges in integration context
Authors: Le Ngo Van
Published: January 2019

Southern region of Vietnam is located in the crossroad of different cultures. Historical and ethnic process as well as cultural acculturation is diverse, multifaceted and complicated due to the presence of many ethnic groups in the area. Diversity in ethnic structure leads to cultural diversity which reflects all aspects of life such as economy and socio-culture of the peoples. Community construction and organization and social management in southern Vietnam go hand in hand with the process of land reclaimation, settlement establishment, and sovereignty claiming, expanding and practicing. Although the ethnic peoples migrated to the region at different times, they all equally contributed to the exploration and development of this highly potential region and to the constitution of “Van Minh Miet Vuon” – literally, the civilization of orchard regions. However, each ethnic group obviously has their own cultural traditions which, when combined together, create a mosaic culture of the whole region. Despite commonality in the process of community construction and organization and social management, distinctiveness of each group still exists. Contemporarily, when integration and development are considered both common aims and motivations, advantages of each cultural tradition should be explored while its limitations, at the same time, should be identified in order to overcome disadvantages for good. As a result, scientific conceptualization about the process of construction and development of the region obviously contributes to maintaining and reinforcing ethnic solidarity for the cause of national building and developing. This paper, based on research outcomes of previous studies and field data in southern region in recent years, presents the process of community construction and organization and social management, both historically and contemporarily. Also, the author aims at identifying advantages and challenges of traditional culture (in this case, traditional social structure) in the current integration process in the southern part of Vietnam.

Published: January 2019

Locating on the domestic and international navigation routes (Long Tau-Tac Dinh Cau route, Soai Rap route) the Can Gio area is impacted by waterway traffic activities. The seasonal movement of sand bars on the Can Gio is significantly impacted by hydrodynamic of the river mouth. With the important roles of the area, the authors consider the coastal morphology processes under the hydrodynamic. In this paper, the authors has inherited previous studies combined the satellite image analysis to detect the shoreline changes from 1973 to 2013. Besides, numerical modeling was also applied to predict the shoreline changes under impacts of the sea level rise. Results show that, the Can Gio shoreline prolonging from Can Thanh to Dong Hoa is seriously eroded, with average of 7-10 m/year, maximum to 15 m/year. It is found that, beach erosion at Can Gio is a kind of surface erosion impacted by human trigger (shrimp ponds, beach encroachment…). In addition, natural factors (wave, long-shore current, littoral materials) also contribute to increase the erosion rate. Predicted results with sea level rise scenarios show that, the Dong Hoa and Can Thanh will be seriously eroded while the 30-4 beach will be annually deposited.

Authors: Okamura K. , Watanabe K. , Yonezu K. , Dang Huyen Thuong , Do Du Cong , Tran Tu Anh
Published: January 2019

The importance of REE for modern industries is proved by the high demand. The abundance of REE is richer than that of noble metals like gold or silver. However, supply sources are concentrated in China. The share of the product of REE was highest in 2009 (over 90%) and that is used as a national strategy.Mining industry in Vietnam is mainly developed in northern part. Deposits of principle metals are located around Hanoi, and REE deposits (Dong Pao) is also explored in Lai Chau Province. On the other hand, few bauxite mine is in southern Vietnam and the REE exploration is not conducted enough. Therefore, the study about REE in southern Vietnam is significant. Samples are from mainly basalt and granite. REE pattern, which is normalized by the abundance of chondrite, of basaltic rocks and laterites shows that is decreases monotony. That amount of REE is low (50-180ppm). REE pattern of magnetite rocks and laterites has no Eu and Ce anomaly. On the other hand, illuminate rocks and laterites have strong negative Eu anomaly. Clay minerals were observed by XRD analysis using hydraulic elutriation. The result of REE pattern and sequential extraction, it is indicated that the form of HREE is changed and adsorbed to clay and LREE is leached out. In tailing in Stop 16, it is observed that the concentration of HREE (about 3 times to 5 times than that of before washing). Eu anomaly is affected by reductive environment of the cooling of magma, and it is considered that Ce anomaly is occurred by the change of Ce form (Ce3+ to Ce4+). CeO2 is insoluble to water in the soil. From the XRD analysis, the cause of HREE concentration in water treatment is considered by the clay mineral

Authors: Esra Yildirir Hasene , Demirkol Hatice
Published: January 2019

The right and wrong mental models that learners have about the changes in the matter have a great importance in understanding the basis of the chemistry. Therefore, the main purpose of this research was to identify students’ misconceptions with regard to physical and chemical change and to come up with models to explain their understanding of this topic. This research was qualitative descriptive with cross-sectional design. The participants were 148 6th graders in Kütahya which is a western city of Turkey. The data were collected through a questionnaire containing five open-ended questions. Additionally, for a more detailed analysis, 28 participants were interviewed to explore the mental models that emerged. Analysis of responses to the questionnaire generated four mental models (Particle Motion Model, Moving Away Particle Model, Particle Motion+Moving Away Particle Model, Macro Model) for physical change and three mental models for chemical change (Changing Particle Model, Moving Away Particle Model and Macro-Micro Change Model). Implications of these results for chemistry education were discussed. Mental models defined in the research can enable teachers of science and researchers to identify difficulties faced by students regarding physical and chemical changes; thus, they can effectively decide which approach to take on to devise scientific models. Keywords: chemical change, chemistry education, mental model, misconceptions, physical change.

Published: January 2019

Obesity has become a global epidemic and has been found to be associated with numerous comorbidities. Body mass index (BMI) based classification of obesity is simple but co-morbidities do not affect all obese and overweight people. The present study was aimed to find out the frequency of metabolic phenotypes in different BMI groups using metabolic syndrome (MetS) criteria and cardiometabolic disabilities (CA) criteria and also to find out an appropriate method for defining metabolic health among adult population attending out patient department of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU). This cross-sectional analytical study was carried out in the Department of Biochemistry, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) from March 2016 to February 2017. By non probability sampling, a total of 1023 study subjects were selected from apparently healthy adult individuals attending outpatient department of BSMMU. The study subjects were grouped into three body mass index classes and also further categorized into six groups according to metabolically unhealthy or healthy phenotypes by presence or absence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) criteria as well as cardiometabolic disabilities (CA) criteria respectively. Then agreement among different metabolic phenotypes based on these two criteria were observed. Frequency of different metabolic phenotypes i,e metabolically healthy normal weight (MHNW), metabolically obese normal weight (MONW), metabolically healthy over weight (MHOW), metabolically obese over weight (MOOW), metabolically healthy obese (MHO) and metabolically unhealthy obese (MUO) were 12.3%, 6.9%, 21.4%, 27.7%, 7.7%, 23.9% by MetS criteria and 7.7%, 11.5%, 11.6%, 37.4%, 6.1%, 25.6% by CA criteria respectively. MOOW followed by MUO were found to be predominant among all phenotypes. Fare agreement was found between two criteria in case of normal weight and overweight groups and good agreement was found in case of obese groups. From this study, it may be concluded that, attention should be given to the metabolically obese phenotypes in different BMI classes to reduce co-morbidities.

Published: January 2019

Metabolic syndrome (MS), a global epidemic, is a cluster of risk factors for CHD, T2DM, stroke and other various medical problems, which affects specially those who lead sedentary and stressful life. Among the health service providers of Bangladesh, doctors are very important group who leads sedentary and mentally stressful life with low physical exercise. The aim was to evaluate WHR (waist-hip ratio), WHtR (waist-height ratio) and TG, HDL-C for their predictive value of MS. In this cross-sectional study, by convenient and purposive sampling technique, 25-55 years aged 500 Bangladeshi doctors (male 334, female 166) were enrolled. The study was carried out in the Department of Biochemistry, BSMMU, Shahbag, Dhaka, Bangladesh. MS was diagnosed by modified NCEP ATP III criteria. Prevalence of MS was measured at 95% CI. Statistical significance was set at p<0.05. Prevalence of MS was found 38.8% in total study subjects; that in male and female was 24.6% and 14.2% respectively. Performance tests of predictors were done. WHR was the most sensitive (99.19% male & 98.59% female), TG was the most specific (94.79% male & 62.11% female) & accurate (78.1% male & 68.1% female) predictor. ROC curves of predictors were produced and all were found good (AUC>0.6) for their predictive value of MS; WHtR was revealed better than WHR as an index for MS (AUC 0.667 vs. 0.652 in male; 0.706 vs. 0.681 in female). It can be concluded, the prevalence of MS is very high among the doctors of Bangladesh; WHtR can be used as a good and relevant index for MS.

Background: Adding narcotics to local anesthetic is very effective in prolonging the analgesic effects. The aim of this study is to evaluation the efficacy and safety of fentanyl as an adjuvant with bupivacaine-lignocaine in supraclavicular block.

Methods: This analytical study was carried out in the department of anesthesiology in Chittagong Medical College Hospital in collaboration with the department of orthopedic surgery over a period of 22 months starting from January 2012 to December 2014. A total 130 adult patients of either sex with American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) health status I-II were selected for upper limb surgery under supraclavicular brachial plexus block was randomly allocated in to two groups of 65 patients in each. Group- C was received Distilled water 2ml and Group-F was received fentanyl 2ml (100 g) in 38ml of bupivacaine and lignocaine with adrenaline (Total volume of 40ml).

Results: The mean onset of sensory & motor block was 10.49±0.75 min & 9.41±0.76 min in group-C and 7.60±3.711min & 9.23±5.114min in group-F. The duration of analgesia in group-C was 3.81±0.88 hrs and in group-F was 8.62±1.747 hrs.

Conclusion: There was significantly prolonged duration of analgesia and better onset of sensory and motor block in fentanyl group without any unwanted effects.

Background: Dermatological problems are common among patients of different ages visiting the out patient departments of tertiary care centers. So the objective of the study to see the spectrum of pediatric and adult dermatoses in out patient skin department of Chattagram Maa hishu O General Hospital.

Methods: The medical records of children and adult attending the dermatology outpatient clinics of Chattagram Maa-O-Shishu Hospital for the year September 2015 to September 2016 were retrieved. Data of 8534 patients were included. Demographic data (Age and sex) and diagnoses were collected and analyzed.

Results: Among 8534 patients attended in OPD, majority of the patients were female and children (2500, 56% &, 3622, 42%). Infection constituted most of the dermatosis (31%) of which scabies was found most common (46%), eczema comes after (20%) and contact dermatitis prevailed (18%). Regarding seasonal variations majority of the patient peaked in summer 855 (10%). Among all 14 patients of epidermolysis bullosa were found. Leprosy and skin tuberculosis were found. Rare diseases including epidermal nevus syndrome 1case, tuboeruptive xanthoma in children, 2 cases, subcutaneous fat necrosis in neonate -2 cases, atypical presentation of erythema multiforme were found.

Conclusion: Many children and almost all adult presents with uncommon presentation of common disease due to frequently visiting non professional and traditional medicine practitioners and homeopathic and traditional medicine.

Published: January 2019

In this study, a complex geometric domain having a colour picture is approximated through a stair- step representation of the coastal and island boundaries to make it suitable for implementing finite difference method in solving shallow water equations (SWEs) in polar coordinates. As a complex domain, we choose the coastal region of Bangladesh situated at the northern tip of the Bay of Bengal (BOB). To cover the whole coastal region, the pole is selected at the point in the  plane assuming it on the mean sea level (MSL). Along the tangential direction, 265 uniformly distributive straight lines are considered through the pole and 959 circular grid lines centered at  are drawn towards the radial direction covering up to  latitude in the BOB. Firstly, a matrix with 960´265 computational grids is constructed from the colour information of the picture. By representing the grids with suitable notations, a proper stair-step algorithm is employed to the matrix obtained with the 960´265 grids to approximate the coastal and island boundaries to the nearest finite difference grid lines using an Arakawa C-grid system. The whole procedure is done with our developed MATLAB program. The grids representing the coastal stations are also identified closely in the obtained approximated domain. Such a type of presentation of the coastal geometry of the region of interest is found to incorporate its complexities properly with minimum computational grid points.

Program Kemitraan Masyarakat (PKM) Guru Matematika bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kualitas pembelajaran dengan memanfaatkan software aplikasi freeware matematika yang bebas biaya lisensi sebagai media pembelajaran. Kegiatan ini difokuskan pada guru Matematika di kecamatan Jabung Kabupaten Malang yang mengabdi di MTs Ahmad Yani dan MTs Ar-Rahmah. Dari hasil wawancara dengan kepala sekolah dan beberapa guru, ditemukan masalah antara lain banyak guru yang belum pernah mendapatkan kesempatan untuk mengikuti pelatihan/workshop pemanfaatan software matematika sebagai media pembelajaran sehingga mengakibatkan rendahnya kreativitas guru dalam memilih model, metode atau pendekatan dalam mengajarkan konsep dasar matematika. Begitu juga dengan jangkauan teknologi informasi yang masih sangat kurang, sehingga guru ataupun sekolah, kurang mendapatkan informasi atau perkembangan software khususnya dalam pembelajaran matematika. Untuk menyelesaikan permasalahan diatas maka diperlukan suatu solusi untuk membantu menyelesaikan yaitu dengan melakukan pendampingan terhadap guru matematika dalam menggunakan media pembelajaran berbantuan komputer dalam rangka meningkatkan kemampuan dan kreativitas guru. Metode yang ditawarkan dengan memberi workshop agar mengenal software aplikasi freeware matematika. Rencana selanjutnya adalah pendampingan guru/peserta pelatihan dalam mendesain perangkat pembelajaran menggunakan software sebagai media pembelajaran yang sudah diberikan melalui kegiatan pelatihan.
