Published: October 2023

Este trabalho apresenta uma idéia inovadora na manutenção de pavimentos de concreto. Trata-se de um material já utilizado há alguns anos no reforço de estruturas de concreto, que trouxemos para a recuperação de placas de concreto de vias e rodovias de pavimentos rígidos. Imaginando que uma placa de concreto fissura, pois a infiltração d'água nas juntas das placas carreia o material da base dessas regiões criando um movimento de gangorra nessas placas, imaginamos costurar estas trincas com lâminas de fibras de carbono inseridas na superfície das placas que seriam tracionadas quando o veículo passasse sobre a placa. Como a fibra de carbono tem uma resistência a tração maior que a do aço, o sistema se mostrou eficaz. Inicialmente, foram feitas algumas placas na rodovia Ayrton Senna entre 2012 e 2014 e posteriormente em 2019 na pista Marginal da Rodovia Presidente Dutra,em Guarulhos, entre outras rodovias. Para avaliar o desempenho da técnica empregada foram efetuados levantamentos deflectométricos, visando saber o LTE (Load Transfer Eficiency) antes e depois das intervenções. Este sistema que foi chamado de CARBOFIT tem a vantagem de ter uma execução rápida - 6 horas, e não gerar resíduos que precisem ser descartados. Este relatório tem como objetivo demonstrar o método para execução deste serviço de recuperação das placas de concreto, o desempenho e situação das placas durante o tempo.

Ao longo dos anos, muitas pesquisas passaram a ser realizadas devido a crescente busca por fonte de recursos naturais não renováveis em pavimentos rodoviários. Diante deste panorama, destaca-se o aproveitamento de resíduos da produção agroindustrial, em especial da produção de arroz. Nesta pesquisa é avaliado o comportamento mecânico do pavimento de concreto com a adição de cinza de casca de arroz (CCA) e cinza volante (CV). Para este estudo, realizou-se a análise de 40 amostras, sendo essas classificadas como REF (sem adição de material), amostras com adição de 7,5% de CCA, 15% de CCA, 7,5% de CV e 15% de CV. Foram realizados ensaios de compressão simples e tração na flexão, para a obtenção da resistência, além do módulo de elasticidade, a fim de se obter qual valor de tensão que o material suporta sem sofrer deformação permanente. Ao final dos ensaios, verificou- se que as amostras com adição de 7,5% de CCA obtiveram maiores médias na resistência à compressão simples, chegando a 46,8 MPa e na tração na flexão, com 4,85 MPa. Já a média do módulo de elasticidade que apresentou melhor resultado foi a amostra com adição de 7,5% de CV, no valor de 53 GPa. A partir dos resultados, e com as comparações efetuadas na literatura, concluiu-se que a adição de cinza de casca de arroz e cinza volante no concreto para pavimentos, em relação à resistência, resultou em misturas satisfatórias e hábeis de serem aplicadas na prática, uma vez que se mostraram mais elevadas que o mínimo exigido pela norma.

Published: October 2023

As eleições de 2018 no Brasil culminaram com a ascensão da ideologia de extrema direita no país, e a partir deste fenômeno foi possível observar a união de indivíduos, até então lidos como heterogêneos, em uma mesma massa ideológica. Decerto é que os indivíduos, em diversas situações sociais, se amalgamam em massas por alguma forma de identificação entre seus membros, porém, por vezes os interesses da massa aparentemente parecem convergir contra os interesses individuais dos seus integrantes. Neste sentido, o presente artigo, realizado através de pesquisa exploratória de investigação bibliográfica, tem por objetivo analisar o que tornou possível as ligações de indivíduos aparentemente heterogêneos nessa mesma massa ideológica. Para tanto, a análise partiu da influência do social no indivíduo, desde a formação histórica, social e cultural da nação brasileira, até a influência das monções afetivas individuais e do papel do outro. Entendeu-se assim que na análise do fenômeno sociopolítico brasileiro contemporâneo, o ponto de vista social não é capaz de explicar a ligação do indivíduo nessa massa ideológica, vez que tal ligação não é a priori uma ligação ideológica, mas afetiva e normativa a partir de seus próprios desejos, que o leva a identificar-se na ideologia, com seus representantes e com o outro.

Apesar de compreender a educação como um fenômeno amplo, é possível verificar que a partir da escola ela é potencializada, uma vez que podemos compreendê-la como um local propício para práticas educacionais e processos de ensino e aprendizagem. Entretanto, ao falar sobre “práticas” e “metodologias” nos colocamos diante de um cenário variado e que também passa por transformações.
Diante disso, o presente e-book busca apresentar diferentes metodologias e práticas de ensino, pois, o pleno conhecimento das diferentes formas de se tratar o processo de ensinar é certamente um ganho considerável para todos. Da mesma maneira, sabe-se que as metodologias são variadas, de acordo com os objetivos propostos pelo educador e pelo horizonte determinado que se deseja chegar. Seria um equívoco compreender uma metodologia singular, bem como uma prática de ensino pronta e acabada, universalizada para todos os níveis de ensino.
Keian Insights on Pottery Chronologies at the Transition to the Late Bronze Age
Authors: Abell Natalie
Published: October 2023

ABSTRACT: Synchronizing cultural changes between Aegean regions at the transition to the Late Bronze Age has proven difficult. Ayia Irini on Kea is a key site for addressing chronological questions, owing to its stratified deposits and common pottery imports and imitations. Previous studies have suggested that ceramics from the first part of the Late Bronze Age (period VI) can be divided into an early and late phase, but the defining features of the earlier phase have not been discussed in detail. This article characterizes the ceramics of the early phase of period VI and provides a new review of synchronisms.

Authors: Kusdhiarningsih Betty , Nurul Gilang Abriani  , Exda Hanung Lidiana
Published: October 2023

Menstruation is a natural thing that happens to a woman and is very important and needs special attention because menstruation is something that marks the beginning of a woman's biological maturity. The initial age when women start menstruation can vary for each individual depending on internal and external factors that influence. This community service activity was carried out at SDN 1 Papahan, Tasikmadu, Karanganyar by providing Reproductive Health Education related to menstruation to elementary school students with an age range of 10 to 13 years, at which age most of the respondents had entered the menarche period. Problem: there are still many adolescents who do not know about reproductive health. Purpose: to find out and provide knowledge related to reproductive health, especially menstruation. Result: the high enthusiasm of the respondents, as evidenced by the large number of students who asked questions about reproductive health, shows that there are many things that need to be learned related to reproductive health in adolescents that are less or even not discussed in the family or society in general. Conclusion: students experience a lack of knowledge, as evidenced by questions based on myths that develop in society, respondents seem embarrassed to express opinions, because menstruation is considered a taboo subject. After health education, students say they have good and correct new knowledge, and are free from myths that were previously believed and considered disturbing in everyday life based on valid and logical science.

Linguistic representation of the speech genre of explanation in medical discourse within the framework of a television educational programme (by the example of the programme “Med. expert”)
Authors: Lutfullina Gulnara Firdavisovna , Eremeeva Svetlana Anatolievna
Published: October 2023

The paper analysed the speech genre of explanation often implemented as a popular scientific description of a disease within the framework of the television genre of educational transmission of medical topics, that is, the researchers consider medical discourse. The aim of the study is to identify the differential features of explanation as a speech genre based on the material of television medical discourse. The study is novel in that it is the first to highlight the linguistic features that define the speech genre of explanation. As a result, it has been revealed that in the medical discourse in Russian, the genre of explanation is characterised at the pragmatic level by the adaptation of information for the audience of potential viewers. A trusting atmosphere is created by emphasising the status of the addresser. The pragmatic attitude toward explication simplicity is expressed in speech at all levels. The speech genre of explanation can be constructed according to the classical scheme on a “simple-to-complex” basis, but it is also possible to use the reverse technique.
The place of morphological terms in 1960-2010 lexicographic editions on the terminology of the Russian language
Authors: Pribytkova Maria Dmitrievna , Antonov Vladimir Petrovich
Published: October 2023

The aim of the study is to determine the features of the presentation of linguistic terminology in 1960-2010 dictionaries and reference literature on the Russian language, identifying common and distinctive features in the inclusion of the metalanguage of linguistics in these publications, as well as morphological terms. In the course of the study, a range of such publications was established and the named terms, which had been interpreted in one or another way in the dictionaries and reference books in question, were identified. Statistical data on the volume of vocabulary in the publications under consideration were given in comparison with the number of morphological terms included in them. The ratio of independent and reference dictionary entries was determined, allowing the addressees of the dictionaries to establish the systemic, genus-species, relations between the morphological terms included in dictionaries and reference editions. Attention is drawn to the content and features of the construction of independent dictionary entries. The study is novel in that it is the first to analyse the morphological component of the main lexicographic publications on the terminology of the Russian language reflecting the classical and modern achievements of Russian grammatical thought. The obtained results showed that the terms of morphological science are not equally represented in the thesauruses of the main dictionaries on the terminology of the Russian language. This fact is explained by the total volume of terminological vocabulary of the publications examined, their genre features (encyclopaedia, reference book, educational dictionary, etc.), the purpose of creation, the nature of the addressee. One of the significant factors accounting for the difference between morphological terms in the main terminological dictionaries of the Russian language is the formation of new linguistic disciplines, new scientific schools and directions that develop their own metalanguage.

The Bora-Baricha-Tullu Moye (BBTM) volcanic complex is located at a transitional zone in the Main Ethiopian Rift where tectonic and volcanic features show complex interplays. We mapped and characterised volcanic and tectonic features using high-resolution digital elevation models and performed morphometric and vent spatial distribution analyses. Structural analysis reveals NNE–SSW, NE–SW, and NW–SE trending faults in the region. The dominant post-caldera volcanic landforms are lava domes, pumice cones, scoria cones, maars, obsidian coulees and lava flows, which have distinct morphological characteristics. Vent elongation and alignment highlight close association between these landforms and the caldera(s) as well as with tectonic structures, suggesting these structures acted as the main magma pathways during the BBTM recent eruptions. We estimate that during the entire BBTM post-caldera phase a total bulk volume of 10.9 km3 of material was erupted. This would represent a time-averaged magma flux of 0.05 km3 ky-1 in the BBTM.

Assembly and Characterization of the Mitochondrial Genome of Fallopia aubertii (L. Henry) Holub
Authors: Zhang Xin , Lu Yong-Chang , Wang Jiu-Li
Published: October 2023

Background: Fallopia aubertii (L. Henry) Holub is a perennial semi-shrub with both ornamental and medicinal value. The mitochondrial genomes of plants contain valuable genetic traits that can be utilized for the exploitation of genetic resources. The parsing of F. aubertii mitochondrial genome can provide insight into the role of mitochondria in plant growth and development, metabolism regulation, evolution, and response to environmental stress. Methods: In this study, we sequenced the mitochondrial genome of F. aubertii using the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform and Nanopore platform. We conducted a comprehensive analysis of the mitochondrial genome of F. aubertii, which involved examining various aspects such as gene composition, repetitive sequences, RNA editing sites, phylogeny, and organelle genome homology. To achieve this, we employed several bioinformatics methods including sequence alignment analysis, repetitive sequence analysis, phylogeny analysis, and more. Results: The mitochondrial genome of F. aubertii has 64 genes, including 34 protein-coding genes (PCGs), three rRNAs, and 27 tRNAs. There were 77 short tandem repeat sequences detected in the mitochondrial genome, five tandem repeat sequences identified by Tandem Repeats Finder (TRF), and 50 scattered repeat sequences observed, including 22 forward repeat sequences and 28 palindrome repeat sequences. A total of 367 RNA coding sites were predicted in PCGs, with the highest number (33) found within ccmB. Ka/Ks values estimated for mitochondrial genes of F. aubertii and three closely related species representing Caryophyllales were less than 1 for most of the genes. The maximum likelihood evolutionary tree showed that F. aubertii and Nepenthes ×ventrata are most closely related. Conclusions: In this study, we obtained basic information on the mitochondrial genome of F. aubertii and this study investigated repeat sequences and homologous segments, predicted RNA editing sites, and utilized the Ka/Ks ratio to estimate the selection pressure on mitochondrial genes of F. aubertii. We also discussed the systematic evolutionary position of F. aubertii based on mitochondrial genome sequences. Our study revealed variations in the sequence and structure of mitochondrial genomes in Caryophyllales. These findings are of great significance for identifying and improving valuable plant traits and serve as a reference for future molecular studies of F. aubertii.
Designing a Fresh Water Generator Application using Adobe Animate
Authors: Hermanto Andy Wahyu , Rajiman Mohammad Rifki
Published: October 2023

Fresh water is highly essential on a ship, not only to meet the crew's needs but also for supporting the ship's operations, such as cooling the main engine, and auxiliary machinery, and for cleaning other cargo loads (tank cleaning). Therefore, there is a need for auxiliary machinery capable of converting seawater into fresh water, which is known as a fresh water generator. The researchers chose this research topic due to the lack of understanding about the working system of a fresh water generator, and in the era of society 5.0, people are accustomed to coexisting with technology, as it facilitates various human affairs. Numerous simulation applications have emerged, such as Adobe Animate, which researchers currently use to design and develop a simulation application for the fresh water generator on computer hardware. The aim of this research is twofold: first, to explore how to create a simulation application for the fresh water generator based on Adobe Animate, and second, to understand the operational aspects of the simulation application. The researchers employed the Research and Development method, utilizing the Borg and Gall model, which comprises 10 research steps: preliminary research, information gathering, product design, design validation, product revision, product testing, product revision, product testing, product revision, and mass production. The outcome of this research, the Design, and Development of an Adobe Animate-based fresh water generator application, indicates that the process of creating a simulation application for the fresh water generator using Adobe Animate can be accomplished on all types of computers with the Microsoft Windows operating system. Furthermore, the operational aspects of this simulation application can be executed on computers running the Microsoft Windows operating system without the need for an internet connection.

Published: October 2023

Therefore, it is important to take care to protect both the equipment and current human resources on board, given how often it is for work accidents to happen there, particularly during the pilot transfer phase—especially causing severe pain for everyone who is exposed to it, as in workplace mishaps involving stair falls, stairway sliding, or other contributing elements like sea waves and wind speed. The goals of this study are to identify the variables that lead to pilot falls, how to maintain pilot ladders, and how to enable pilots to board ships securely. In order to ensure that the research process is in line with the facts, researchers employ theoretical underpinnings as guidelines and qualitative approaches that place a greater emphasis on technical factors. When conducting field research, information is gathered through observation, documentation studies, interviews, and literature reviews. To address the problem formulation, the gathered data was then examined utilizing a fishbone diagram analysis technique. This study shows that during the maneuvering of the MV pilot pick-up, the pilot falls from the deck side of the boat via the pilot ladder. Van Star in the Rouen River area, specifically internal factors, such as a lack of safety awareness and disregard for pilot ladder pilots, and external factors, such as the ship being engaged in the process of maneuvering a pilot pick-up, which resulted in the creation of high waves as the boat pilot approached. It demonstrates that the upkeep and use of the pilot rung, specifically, a deeper understanding of pilot ladder arrangements and performing PMS (plan maintenance system), notably on pilot ladders, are necessary if the ship's draft exceeds the prescribed limit in order to prevent the accident.
The position of music and singing in the Shafi‘i madhhab
Authors: Gamzatov A. A. , Sirazhudinova S. I.
Published: October 2023

The article is devoted to the study of the issues of the permissibility of music and singing in Islam within the framework of the theological and legal school of the Shafi‘i madhhab. Analyzing excerpts from the books of such Shafi‘i scholars as Abu Hamid Muhammad al-Ghazali, ‘Izz al-Din ibn ‘Abd al-Salam, Kamal al-Din al-Damiri, Jamal al-Din ‘Abd al-Rahim al-Isnawi, al-Suyuti, Ahmad al-Saqqaf, etc., the work reveals two positions of the Shafi‘i madhhab regarding the permissibility of music and singing in Islam. The dominant position of the Shafi‘i madhhab is the opinion prohibiting all types of musical instruments, except percussion instruments, of which only the darbuk drum, common in the Middle East countries, and brass cymbals are prohibited. The second opinion allows the use of all types of wind instruments, with the exception of mizmar, known in Dagestan as zurna. There are many supporters of this point of view, among them such authoritative scholars as al-Ghazali, al-Rafi‘i, Ibn Ruf‘a, al-Bulqini. In addition, this position was held by the late scholars-theologians of the Yemeni school of Shafi‘i law, known as one of the strongest schools of the Shafi‘i Madhhab in the later centuries.

Based on the analysis of the positions of Shafi‘i scholars, the author comes to the conclusion that such statements as “music is completely prohibited in Islam” are not true, since there are permitted types of instruments. Moreover, there are scientists who allow all kinds of tools, and where there is controversy among theologians, there should also be tolerance for someone else's position.

Authors: Kim Hongyeon , Lim Soo-min , Kim Youngshin
Published: October 2023

The purpose of this study is to analyze the niche overlap and proximity of photosynthetic domain concepts according to the cognitive level of middle school students. For this, the subjects were 204 7th grade students. The cognitive level of middle school students was classified using the questionnaire used in GALT. After that, data on the concept relevance score and understanding level were collected using the concept relevance and understanding level questionnaire. The understanding level analysis framework and analyzed using the classification criteria modified and supplemented by Lim et al. The niche overlap of concepts was visualized using McPherson's square method using the concept relevance score and understanding level score, and the proximity between concepts was visualized using the multidimensional scaling method. The results of this study are as follows. First, students in the formal operational stage recognized science concepts closely as a result of learning, and the niche overlap between science concepts was high. Second, even after learning, niche overlap and proximity between concepts unrelated to the domain were presented, which differed according to cognitive levels. Third, the same concept had different niche overlap and proximity according to the domains, and there was a difference according to the cognitive level. Through the results of this study, it is necessary to connect and explain related scientific concepts for students with low cognitive levels. In addition, when the same concept is presented in different domains, it is expected that the properties and characteristics of each domain are clearly distinguished and taught.
The Analysis Actual Use and Perception of Class Using Coding of Chemistry Teacher
Authors: Kim Sungki , Kim Hyunjung
Published: October 2023

This study investigated the actual use and perceptions of class using coding for chemistry teachers. To this end, a questionnaire survey consisting of a total of 7 questions was conducted targeting 45 teachers. The research results were as follows. First, chemistry teachers had the most cases of using digital devices with ‘Utilizing PPT’, and the rate of experiencing coding-related education was not high during the teacher period as well as the pre-teacher period. As a result of examining the level of use, only two teachers were actually using coding in class. Second, chemistry teachers recognized that classes using coding would be effective for ‘increasing interest of class’ and ‘offering a variety of learning experiences’. As a result of open-ended response analysis of classes using coding, the frequency of negative keywords was higher than that of positive keywords, and the instructor's low readiness for coding was the biggest barrier to implementing classes using coding. Through these results, teachers recognized the value of classes using coding as a new learning tool, but in terms of actual use, teachers' preparation or conditions have not yet been formed, so the practice of classes using coding is low. Based on this, we discussed ways to activate classes using coding.

Computer-mediated communication (CMC) has gained incredible popularity in the last decade. To test whether a brief written exchange would impact interpersonal dynamics between individuals, here we asked participants to engage in virtual written conversation—starting from an abstract or a concrete topic—with another individual (interactive condition) or to write a few sentences in parallel with them (non-interactive condition). Results show that in the interactive condition, participants felt overall closer to the interlocutor, compared to the non-interactive condition. Furthermore, the more participants perceived the conversation as pleasant and intimate, and the more significant they rated the other person's contribution to the conversation, the closer they felt to the interlocutor. Inconclusive evidence was obtained regarding the modulation of interpersonal dynamics as a function of the conversational topic. These findings highlight the crucial role of the quality of dialogical exchanges during brief virtual written conversations (< 5 minutes) in fostering feelings of closeness.
The importance of anisotropic viscosity in numerical models for olivine textures in shear and subduction deformations
Authors: Wang Yijun , Király Ágnes , Conrad Clinton , Hansen Lars , Fraters Menno
Published: October 2023

Olivine lattice preferred orientation (LPO), or texture, forms in relation to deformation mechanisms such as dislocation creep and can be observed in the upper mantle as seismic anisotropy. Olivine is also mechanically anisotropic, meaning that it responds to stresses differently depending on the direction of the stress. Understanding the interplay between anisotropic viscosity (AV) and LPO, and their role in deformation, is necessary for relating seismic anisotropy to mantle flow patterns. In this project, we employ three methods to predict olivine texture (D-Rex, MDM, and MDM+AV) in a shear box model and a subduction model. D-Rex and MDM are two representative texture development methods that have been compared before, and our results are in line with previous studies showing that textures computed by D-Rex develop faster and are stronger and more point-like than textures calculated with MDM. MDM+AV uses the same no-AV mantle deformation as D-Rex and MDM but includes the effect of AV for texture predictions. MDM+AV predicts a texture similar to MDM with a distinct girdle-like orientation in simple shear deformation or at low strain. At larger strains, MDM+AV’s textures are more point-like and stronger compared to the other two methods. The effective viscosity for MDM+AV drops by up to 40% in a shear box model, while the anisotropic viscosity can be both smaller and larger relative to the isotropic viscosity in different regions of a subduction model. Our results emphasize the significant role of AV in olivine texture development, which could substantially affect geodynamic processes in the upper mantle.
Two-dimensional ideal magnetohydrodynamic waves on a rotating sphere under a non-Malkus field: I. Continuous spectrum and its ray-theoretical interpretation
Authors: Nakashima Ryosuke , Yoshida Shigeo
Published: October 2023

Two-dimensional (2D) ideal incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) linear waves at the surface of a rotating sphere are studied as a model imitating the outermost Earth's core or the solar tachocline. This thin conducting layer is permeated by a toroidal magnetic field whose magnitude depends only on the latitude. The Malkus background field, which is proportional to the sine of the colatitude, gives two well-known groups of branches on which Alfvén waves gradually become fast or slow magnetic Rossby (MR) waves as the field amplitude decreases. For non-Malkus fields, we show that the associated eigenvalue problems can yield a continuous spectrum instead of Alfvén and slow MR discrete modes. Critical latitudes attributed to the Alfvén resonance wipe out these discrete eigenvalues and produce an infinite number of singular eigenmodes. The theory of slowly varying wave trains in an inhomogeneous magnetic field shows that a wave packet related to this continuous spectrum propagates toward a critical latitude corresponding to the wave and is eventually absorbed there. The expected behaviour that the retrograde propagating packets which pertain to the continuous spectrum approach the latitudes from the equatorial side and that the prograde ones approach there from the polar side is consistent with the profiles of their eigenfunctions shown by our numerical calculations. Further in-depth discussions of the Alfvén continuum would progress the theory of ``wave-mean field interaction'' in the MHD system and one's understanding of the dynamics in such thin layers.
Definition and Identification of Causal Ratio Effects

In non-linear regression models, the effect of a treatment or intervention is often expressed as a ratio (e.g., risk ratio, odds ratio). There is discussion about when ratio-based effect measures can be interpreted in a causal way. For example, it is well-known that ratio-based effect measures suffer from non-collapsibility, that is, the average over individual ratio effects is not equivalent to the ratio of group means in a randomized experiment. Even more, different ratio-based effect measures (e.g., simple ratio, odds ratio) can point into different directions regarding the effectiveness of the treatment making it difficult to decide which one is the causal effect of interest. While causality theories do in principle allow for ratio-based effect measures, the literature lacks a comprehensive derivation and definition of ratio-based effect measures and their possible identification from a causal perspective (including, but not restricted to randomized experiments). In this paper, we show how both simple ratios and odds ratios can be defined based on the stochastic theory of causal effects. Then, we examine if and how expectations of these effect measures can be identified under four causality conditions. Especially, we will show that ratio-based effect measures are collapsible under certain conditions. Finally, we discuss an alternative computation of ratio-based effect measures as ratios of causally unbiased expectations instead of expectations of individual ratios, which is identifiable under all causality conditions and consistent with difference-based effect measures.
Systems' Librarians: Unidentified but Essential in Nepalese Libraries

Published: October 2023

Digital library dealt with information communication technology (ICT) infrastructures that is different from manual library infrastructure. Digital library is the growing demand in contrast to manual library, which demanded for systems' librarians or digital librarians. The collected data from seven libraries in Nepal to examine the availability of Systems' librarian manpower provided no light of hope. Those libraries were selected using convenient judgmental sampling through a short interview with currently available librarians about the concept of a Systems' librarian. Digitally skilled and responsible for digital data management personnel was defined as systems' librarians who have the necessary knowledge and skills in library software, networking, data entry, and troubleshooting of ICT-related issues. The study found that out of the seven libraries, only two had systems' librarians, yet their designation was not pin-pointedly named as' systems' librarian'. While others lacked the required manpower. The study also revealed that there were no Systems' Librarians in any of the libraries. The respondents' attitudes and perceptions towards the Systems' Librarian concept varied, with some accepting it as adaptable, acceptable, and appreciable. The study recommended for the recruitment of Systems' Librarians in Nepal as the library’s resources adopted the concept of paperless and library-without-wall. The lack of concerned manpower to look after electronic resources could lead to serious problems, and it's time for the Nepal Library Association and stake holders to advocate for the specialized manpower for the post of Systems' Librarian (also called digital librarian) and generate skilled manpower.

This study aims  is to determine factors that can cause budgetary slack. More specifically, the purpose of this study is to find out whether there is a moderating effect between leadership style and organizational commitment and budgetary slack by adding organizational characteristics as the antecedent variable of organizational commitment. The type of research used in this study is quantitative with experimental methods by providing treatment to the subjects involved. The design used for this experiment is a 2x2 design for the variables of leadership style and organizational characteristics. The result of this study is that managers with high organizational characteristics tend to have greater organizational commitment than managers with low organizational characteristics. Meanwhile, leadership style does not moderate the relationship between organizational commitment and budgetary slack. From the results of this study, it can be concluded that hight organizational characteristics can affect a managerâ€™s organizational commitment. Companies need to pay attention to the characteristics of their workers, which in this case means instrumental communication or the quality of information conveyed by managers to their subordinates.

Keywords: Budgetary slack; leadership style; organizational commitment; organizational characteristics; instrumental communication.
