Published: June 2022

Previous study has clarified that distance is a deterrent to the communication of exchange relations among districts and a few others show the contrary outcomes. This examination expects to recognize the degree of gravity displaying in keeping up the suspicion that distance is a boundary to trade interactions between the growth poles and its hinterlands. This sort of examination is quantitative spellbinding and was done purposively in the Province of Kalimantan Tengah, considering the welfareâ€™s imbalance occurs. Optional information is acquired by documentation at BPS, in particular the Real GRDP and HDI for the 2014-2018 period by Regency/City, and their distances. Examination of the connection of exchange relations at the development community utilizes a correlation of 2 changed models of the estimation of the gravity list by including pointers of proportions of thriving, specifically GRDP and HDI. The consequences of this examination give another commitment which demonstrates that the HDI as a proportion of flourishing can more readily mirror the hypothesis of gravity than the GDRP. Accordingly, these outcomes affirm that expanding access and offices for wellbeing, instruction, exchange and transportation foundation administrations can be utilized as an answer in endeavors to productivity the collaboration of exchange relations.

Authors: Wahyudi Sugeng , Rita Maria Rio , Fuady Misbach
Published: June 2022

Financial and non-financial aspects can influence company performance, not excluding small-medium enterprises (SMEs). This research examines the non-financial aspect, since studies in this area are still limited. This research strives to demonstrate the existence of the neoclassical theory in the relationship framework between the business aspect (real sector) and SME performance.  This study, which was conducted on batik SMEs in Central Java Province-Indonesia, consisted of 265 samples. The data was obtained from surveys through distributing questionnaires and conducting interviews with batik SME entrepreneurs. The data analysis used a structural equation model (SEM). These study results documented that business prospects have direct and indirect effects on SME performance. The indirect influences are produced through entrepreneurial-oriented financial mediation. This finding reveals that the neoclassical theory will be more effective to improve company performance through entrepreneurial-oriented finance. The importance of the role of this mediating variable is shown from the total effect of the coefficient that is higher than the indirect effect or the direct effect of the coefficient.
Does Monetary Transmission Effective? Evidence from Indonesia
Authors: Arintoko Arintoko
Published: June 2022

This study aims to examine the effects of monetary policy in Indonesia on real variables represented by output and nominal variables represented by inflation. This research is based on an autoregressive distributed model (ARDL) approach which includes lag for the dependent variable and its explanatory variables as regressors. So it is appropriate to analyze time-series data dynamically. Monetary policy variables include deposit interest rate, lending interest rate, asset/stock price, and exchange rate. The results show that the deposit interest rate has a negative effect on inflation in the short run, meanwhile, the lending interest rate has a negative effect on inflation in the long run. Also, the lending interest rate has an effective effect on output in the short run. This study also proves that stock price has a positive effect on the monetary transmission to inflation. This is an important finding considering that the value of assets and individual wealth can affect aggregate demand. These findings have implications for the importance of monetary policy as a policy of stabilizing inflation and output in the short run and stabilizing inflation in the long run by emphasizing the interest rate channel, in addition to seeing the importance of the asset price channel.

Structural Break and The Period of Indonesia’s Post-Pandemic Economic Recovery
Authors: Handayani Fitri
Published: June 2022

The Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 caused economic contraction of 2.07 percent in Indonesia. Knowing the similar economic conditions in the past period and how long is the period of Indonesia's economic recovery after the pandemic are important. Therefore, this study aims to determine the period of economic structural break that has occurred in Indonesia and to determine the period of economic recovery. The analytical method used is the Bai-Perron, cointegration test, and VECM. The variables used are economic growth, exports, and inflation. The results of this study indicate the occurrence of structural break periods in the Indonesian economy in 1989, 1998 and 2004. Furthermore, based on the long-term VECM equation, exports have a positive but insignificant effect on economic growth. In contrast, inflation has a significant negative impact on economic growth. By using the IRF, it showed that economic growth will achieve stability or recovery after the occurrence of shocks to economic growth itself within a period of 5 to 10 years. If there is a shock to exports, economic stability can be achieved in a period of 5 to 10 years. Meanwhile, if there is a shock to inflation, stability can be achieved in less than 5 years.

Published: June 2022

Kubu Raya is one of the largest rice-producing regency in West Kalimantan. However, unfortunately, the success of rice farmers in the area is not followed by an increase in the welfare of farmers because the strategy of increasing income is one of the indicators of welfare that is not used appropriately. This research aims to determine the influence of farmer's characteristics and managerial capacities on the rice farmer's welfare in Kubu Raya Regency. The research is in Kubu Raya Regency, considering that this location is one of the rice farming development regions in West Kalimantan. The data source contains primary and secondary data. The variables of research contain farmer's characteristics, managerial capacities, and farmer's welfare. The data analysis uses SEM (Structural Equation Model) analysis. The result of research indicates that the farmer's characteristics do not influence the farmer's welfare, while the managerial capacities influence the farmer's welfare. It means that farmers need to increase the cultivation technique ability, the management ability, the ability to improve the business, and the ability to adapt to increase their welfare
Pathway of Building SMEs Performance in Cluster through Innovation Capability
Authors: Faisol Faisol , Aliami Sri , Anas M
Published: June 2022

The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of business strategies and social capital on the performance of small and medium-sized firms (SMEs) that operate in small industry clusters. An emphasis is placed on examining the function of innovation capability in mediating this interaction. Data was acquired by sending questionnaires to various clusters in East Java, Indonesia, utilizing multi-stage sampling. The study then found 98 SME owners who had completed all of the surveys. The Partial Least Square approach was then utilized to evaluate the hypotheses using SmartPLS. The findings show that business strategies have no direct impact on performance. The impact of business strategy on performance appears to be mediated by innovation capabilities. On the other hand, social capital, as measured by bridging and linking social capital, has a direct impact on firm performance. As a result, this study suggests that SMEs improve their performance through increasing cluster social capital and increasing innovation capability. We recommend further research to replicate this study on large industry clusters. It is expected that the interplay between business strategies and social capital to performance will explain different result for the development of industry clusters.
Hyperinsulinemia induces early and dyssynchronous puberty in lean female mice

Published: June 2022

Girls with obesity are at increased risk of early puberty. Obesity is associated with insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia. We hypothesized that insulin plays a physiological role in pubertal transition, and super-imposed hyperinsulinemia due to childhood obesity promotes early initiation of puberty in girls. To isolate the effect of hyperinsulinemia from adiposity, we compared pre-pubertal and pubertal states in hyperinsulinemic, lean muscle (M)-insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R)-lysine (K)-arginine (R) (MKR) mice to normoinsulinemic WT, with puberty onset defined by vaginal opening (VO). Our results show MKR had greater insulin resistance and higher insulin levels (P <  0.05) than WT despite lower body weight (P < 0.0001) and similar IGF-1 levels (P = NS). Serum luteinizing hormone (LH) levels were higher in hyperinsulinemic MKR (P = 0.005), and insulin stimulation induced an increase in LH levels in WT. VO was earlier in hyperinsulinemic MKR vs WT (P < 0.0001). When compared on the day of VO, kisspeptin expression was higher in hyperinsulinemic MKR vs WT (P < 0.05), and gonadotropin-releasing hormone and insulin receptor isoform expression was similar (P = NS). Despite accelerated VO, MKR had delayed, disordered ovarian follicle and mammary gland development. In conclusion, we found that hyperinsulinemia alone without adiposity triggers earlier puberty. In our study, hyperinsulinemia also promoted dyssynchrony between pubertal initiation and progression, urging future studies in girls with obesity to assess alterations in transition to adulthood.

Authors: González-Rosales Andrés , Ortiz Paniagua Carlos Francisco
Published: June 2022

[Introducción]: Algunas variables ayudan a explicar la Superficie Forestal Afectada por Incendios (SFAI) que si bien, se conocen intuitivamente, no se han cuantificado para estimar su importancia en la prevención al combate de los incendios forestales. [Objetivo]: plantear un modelo estadístico que demuestre los determinantes de la SFAI y, con ello, aportar información inicial para el fortalecimiento de un esquema para prevención de incendios. [Metodología]: se integraron dos técnicas estadísticas: análisis multivariado de componentes principales y datos panel para entender la relación entre dichas variables intuitivas sobre número de incendios, detección, llegada, temperatura y duración, sobre la SFAI. [Resultados]: sugieren que en 11 entidades federativas de México (Región Centro-Occidente) hay una relación entre la cantidad y duración de incendios, más que proporcional para la cantidad de incendios (1.28) y menos que proporcional para la duración de estos (0.52), en relación con la SFAI. [Conclusiones]: este modelo puede tener aplicaciones en la planificación de acciones y esquemas para la protección de ecosistemas forestales y la asignación de recursos (humanos, equipo y materiales) más eficaz y eficiente a fin de prevenir y reducir los incendios forestales.

Tres Décadas de Investigación sobre Liderazgo Educativo en España. Un Mapeo Sistemático
Authors: Tintoré Mireia , Gairín Joaquín
Published: June 2022

La creciente importancia del liderazgo educativo en las últimas décadas hace necesario revisar el estado de la investigación en este campo llevada a cabo en España desde 1991 hasta 2019. Después de estudiar cómo se ha posicionado la investigación española sobre liderazgo educativo desde una perspectiva internacional, se revisa la evolución de dicha literatura en España a través del método de mapeo sistemático. Se analizan tres bases de datos (Web of Science, Scopus e Índice-CSIC) y se identifican 244 artículos que cumplen las características de la búsqueda. A partir de los documentos seleccionados, se describe la evolución y distribución geográfica de los artículos, las temáticas más relevantes, y los autores, revistas, universidades y grupos de investigación que muestran mayor vitalidad en este ámbito. Se concluye señalando el vigor de la investigación sobre liderazgo educativo en España, especialmente a partir de 2012, en cuanto a cantidad y calidad de las publicaciones. No obstante, es necesario incrementar el impacto a nivel internacional y desarrollar líneas temáticas poco exploradas, como el liderazgo y los efectos socioeconómicos de la educación. Este mapeo sistemático puede servir como base para futuros estudios en España o en otros países y contribuir al conocimiento del liderazgo educativo desde una perspectiva global.
Educación Telemática en la Universidad: Un Estudio en Futuros Docentes
Authors: Pattier Daniel , García-Martín Sheila
Published: June 2022

La irrupción de las Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación, en el área educativa, ha permitido la expansión de aprendizajes a través de medios telemáticos. Además, la pandemia de la Covid-19 y el consecuente cierre de instituciones escolares, ocasionó la aplicación masiva de la formación totalmente online o combinada (presencial y con apoyo de la telemática). El objetivo de esta investigación fue conocer las valoraciones de los estudiantes universitarios que pretenden ser docentes acerca de la formación que están recibiendo por medios telemáticos. Para ello, se diseñó, validó y aplicó un cuestionario online a 523 discentes pertenecientes a dos universidades de España y una de Portugal. Se realizaron análisis descriptivos y multivariados obteniéndose diferencias estadísticamente significativas. Los resultados evidencian que la educación telemática no es evaluada de forma especialmente positiva por el estudiantado, destacando que estos echan de menos socializar con los compañeros, aunque reconocen que su implementación también brinda ventajas como una mayor flexibilidad y una reducción de gastos económicos. Finalmente, se discute la necesidad de transformar las metodologías docentes para una eficiente transición del aprendizaje presencial al telemático, y se concluye con pautas para mejorar la calidad y eficacia de los planes de formación online y combinado para estudiantes de educación superior.
Economía Política Global latinoamericana: un campo de estudio efervescente entre el desarrollo y el regionalismo
Authors: Quiliconi Cintia
Published: June 2022

Este artículo tiene como objetivo contribuir a un debate reciente para revalorizar los aportes de América Latina a la Economía Política Internacional (EPI) desde una perspectiva más amplia y plural ofrecida por la Economía Política Global (EPG). Más que una disciplina, este enfoque representa un campo de estudio donde coexisten diversas posiciones teóricas, metodológicas, epistemológicas y ontológicas con base local para el reconocimiento equitativo de las teorías y aportes generados en el Sur Global. Aunque no representa un planteamiento contrahegemónico al pensamiento occidental, la EPG cuestiona la aplicabilidad de las teorías preponderantes de la EPI al considerarlas limitadas en términos de explicación y replicabilidad para Latinoamérica.
Desde el análisis histórico, se propone comparar los eventos políticos y económicos más relevantes que propiciaron la creación de un campo regional en EPG. De esa forma, este documento aborda cómo el estructuralismo y las teorías del desarrollo se convirtieron en los pilares de una escuela de pensamiento latinoamericana que luego se ha expandido a un subcampo individual de investigación en la región. Se argumenta que estos aportes pueden identificarse como una vertiente particular construida principalmente sobre el debate de los términos de intercambio y de los estudios de desarrollo en general, pero con ramificaciones posteriores que han insertado debates en la región sobre regionalismo e inserción internacional, así como también el financiamiento para el desarrollo y variedades de capitalismo, dentro de una discusión que ha crecido en las últimas décadas.
El artículo se divide en cuatro apartados que abordan los principales aportes de la EPG latinoamericana. Primero, se sintetizan los debates seminales en la construcción del campo de la EPG latinoamericana del estructuralismo y las teorías de la dependencia. Segundo, se destaca la importancia de la integración regional y el regionalismo como pilares centrales de la Escuela Latinoamericana de EPG. Tercero, se da cuenta de cómo los análisis más recientes sobre financiamiento para el desarrollo y variedades de capitalismo han contribuido a alimentar la EPG latinoamericana. Finalmente, se analiza si el campo de la EPI es de carácter global o se enfrenta a una nueva etapa en la que se revaloriza y destaca la contribución y singularidad de los debates regionales.
El proyecto de ciencia abierta en un mundo desigual
Authors: Beigel María Fernanda
Published: June 2022

La Recomendación de Ciencia Abierta de la UNESCO, aprobada en noviembre pasado, propone promover un consenso global sobre sus valores y acciones. Los pilares de la apertura que se propone este proyecto son: las infraestructuras científicas abiertas, el diálogo con distintos sistemas de conocimiento, así como el compromiso con los distintos sectores sociales, es decir la ciencia ciudadana y participativa. Las cinco manifestaciones principales de esta apertura de la ciencia son: el acceso abierto a las publicaciones científicas, el acceso abierto a los datos de investigación, los recursos educacionales abiertos, el software y el hardware abiertos. Ahora bien, para crear un entorno normativo propicio para la ciencia abierta, la Recomendación plantea la necesidad de fomentar prácticas responsables en materia de evaluación de la investigación que incentiven la ciencia de calidad, reconociendo la diversidad de los resultados y estimulando las distintas misiones de la universidad. Se interpela a los Estados Miembros para que, de acuerdo con sus circunstancias, estructuras de gobierno y disposiciones constitucionales específicas y conforme a los marcos jurídicos internacionales y nacionales, procuren activamente eliminar los obstáculos para la ciencia abierta, especialmente los relativos a los sistemas de evaluación y el avance de las buenas prácticas en materia de ciencia abierta. Promocionar una cultura de ciencia abierta es una tarea compleja que requiere sistemas integrados de información que permitan conocer, promover y evaluar el universo de producciones y actividades de investigación.Por eso, una de las preocupaciones principales planteadas en esta Recomendación es que, aun con sus buenas intenciones, la ciencia abierta podría amplificar brecha entre países tecnológicamente más avanzados y los países más pobres, con infraestructura digital precaria. Así, el crecimiento unilateral de plataformas de ciencia abierta en los países dominantes no sólo incrementaría las desigualdades de acceso a la ciencia, sino que habilitaría diferentes formas de exacción y comercialización de datos provenientes de la periferia. En este trabajo se abordan las desigualdades de infraestructura que afectan a los países de bajos y medianos ingresos, señalando las principales asimetrías que condicionan los caminos de la ciencia abierta en el Sur global. En la primera parte se describe la dotación mundial a nivel de repositorios, sistemas integrados de información científica y revistas científicas. En la segunda, se focaliza en la experiencia de América Latina, que dispone de una infraestructura colaborativa que se viene desarrollando desde la década de 1950, pero todavía tiene grandes desafíos para afrontar el tránsito desde el acceso abierto a la ciencia abierta. Finalmente, se discute el rol crítico que tienen los sistemas de evaluación de la región para producir una transformación de la magnitud que anida en la ciencia abierta, sin resignar soberanía y anclaje social.

Authors: Quiroz David Eduardo
Published: June 2022

El presente artículo aborda la cuestión del factor emocional en la argumentación dentro del esquema de la nueva retórica propuesta por Perelman y Olbrechts-Tyteca en la obra Tratado de la argumentación. Específicamente haremos referencia a la cuestión de las emociones en relación con la noción de auditorio interno o deliberación con uno mismo. Trataremos de observar la incidencia del factor emocional dentro de esta idea particular de auditorio que proponen los autores. El objetivo es indagar cómo es posible la deliberación interna y de qué manera podemos hablar de una influencia emocional en el diálogo con uno mismo.
Una investigación de las estrategias argumentativas de los padres en los diálogos a la hora de comer en familias italianas y suizas
Authors: Bova Antonio
Published: June 2022

Este estudio tiene como objetivo describir las estrategias argumentativas más utilizadas por los padres para resolver a su favor los diálogos argumentativos con sus hijos a la hora de comer. Los resultados del análisis de 132 diálogos argumentativos entre padres e hijos indican que los padres utilizan principalmente argumentos basados en las nociones de calidad y cantidad en las discusiones relacionadas con la comida. Los padres utilizan otro tipo de argumentos, como la apelación a la coherencia, los argumentos de autoridad y los argumentos de analogía, en discusiones relacionadas con la enseñanza del comportamiento correcto en situaciones sociales fuera del contexto familiar; por ejemplo, con profesores y compañeros. Estos resultados ponen de manifiesto cómo padres e hijos contribuyen a coconstruir el proceso dialógico de negociación de opiniones divergentes.

Published: June 2022

Objetivo: analizar las correlaciones entre la eco-intensidad (EI) del músculo cuádriceps medido por ecografía cuantitativa, y el salto vertical en niños en edad escolar. Metodología: Se realizó un estudio transversal, comparativo y no aleatorio. Se utilizó una muestra intencional compuesta por 184 niños escolares, entre 7 y 10 años. Imágenes transversales fueron obtenidas del cuádriceps femoral derecho por ecografía para determinar la eco-intensidad del recto femoral o anterior, vasto intermedio o crural y vasto lateral o externo. La fuerza explosiva fue medida mediante las pruebas de Salto con contra-movimiento (CMJ) y saltos repetidos por quince segundos (RJ15). Resultados: La EI de los componentes evaluados del cuádriceps se correlacionan significativamente con las mediciones derivadas del salto vertical tipo CMJ y RJ15 en niños y niñas entre 7 y 10 años (PP15R vs Dif 1C, Dif 2C, Dif 3C, r= 0,53-0,59).
The effects of boron compounds and different melamine contents in MUF resins on some properties of MDF panels
Authors: Ustaomer Derya , Usta Mustafa
Published: June 2022

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of some boron compounds, which have fire retardant properties, as well as melamine-urea-formaldehyde (MUF) resins having different melamine contents (10%, 15%, and 20%) on some physical and mechanical properties of medium density fiberboard (MDF) panels. It was found that the water absorption (WA) and thickness swelling (TS) of MDF panels increased depending on types and concentrations of boron compounds. However, the WA and TS values of MDF panels decreased with increasing melamine content in MUF resins. It was also found that the modulus of rupture (MOR) and internal bond strength (IB) of MDF panels showed different trends depending on the experimental parameters. Boron compounds showed some negative effects on the MOR and IB values. However, these effects decreased with increasing melamine content in MUF resins. The best results were obtained in MDF panels manufactured with an MUF resin having 20% melamine content. Consequently, increasing melamine content in MUF resins showed positive effects on some properties of MDF panels.
Bioarchaeological Notes on the Commingled Human Remains Held in the Church of Saint Francis of Paola, Sant’Angelo di Brolo, Sicily, Italy
Authors: Kemežytė Aurelija , Piombino-Mascali Dario
Published: June 2022

I this study, we examine human skeletal remains from the church of San Francis of Paola located in the small town of Sant’Angelo di Brolo, in the Italian region of Sicily. The preserved skeletal remains were temporarily transferred from their permanent resting place in the crypt for a macroscopic examination and evaluation. Various established methods were used to determine age at death, gender, stature, any evidence of disease(s) as well as the fact that there was a minimum of 15 individuals. The findings were then subdivided into different groups of pathologies and recorded as individual cases. Amongst which, dental issues and cases of trauma were most prevalent. Additional conditions such as joint disease, congenital, metabolic and multifactorial disorders were also identified. The prevalence of dental decay indicates that the group’s diet consisted largely of carbohydrates, and that their oral hygiene was poor. Furthermore, evidence of trauma and poor healing suggested that the town was isolated from the main medical centres of the island. Severe complications of traumas linked with a loss of movement and overall independence, as well as physical pain, must have had a significant impact on the lives of those affected.

Published: June 2022

Caesarean scar pregnancy is a potentially life-threatening gynaecological condition, becoming more common due to steadily increasing rate of caesarean sections worldwide. More than one-third of women presenting with caesarean scar pregnancy are asymptomatic, but over the time if left untreated this condition can lead to the uterine rupture and massive maternal haemorrhage. Therefore it is necessary to diagnose and manage caesarean scar pregnancies properly at the beginning of the first trimester. We present the case of woman with three previous caesarean sections, who was diagnosed with complicated caesarean scar pregnancy and then successfully managed using surgical intervention.

MATHEMATICAL MODELS OF HUMAN RESPIRATORY AND BLOOD CIRCULATORY SYSTEMS
Authors:   V. M. Glushkov Institute of Cybernetics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Kyiv, Aralova N. I.
Published: June 2022

Aim. To analyze modern approaches to mathematical modeling of human respiratory and blood circulatory systems. Methods. Comprehensive review of scientific literature sources extracted from domestic and international resources databases. Results. Historical information and modern data concerning mathematical modeling of human functional respiratory and blood circulatory systems were summarized and analyzed in present ¬review; current trends in approaches to the construction of these models were revealed. Conclusions. Currently, two main approaches to the mathematical modeling of respiratory and blood circulatory systems exist. One of them is the construction of models of the mechanics of respiration and blood circulation. They are based on the models of mechanics of solid deformable body, thermomechanics, hydromechanics, and continuum mechanics. This approach uses complex mathematical apparatus, including Navier-Stokes equation, which makes it possible to obtain a number of theoretical results, but it is hardly usable for real problems solutions at present time. The second approach is based on the model of F. Grodins, who represented the process of breathing as a controlled dynamic system, described by ordinary differential equations, in which the process control is carried out according to the feedback principle. There is a significant number of modifications of this model, which made it possible to simulate various disturbing influences, such as physical activity, hypoxia and hyperemia, and to predict parameters characterizing functional respiratory system under these disturbing influences.

Evaluation of biotechnological aspects of the production of a liquid formulation of the multifunctional antiseptic preparation of microbial origin, which can be typified as an enzybiotic; characterization of the enzyme specificity of the studied formulation, stabilization methods, its ability to affect microbial biofilms. Methods. Gel-filtration and electrophoresis were used to study the component composition and the specificity of the enzyme complex of the Streptomyces albus UN 44 producer strain. Proteolytic and staphylolytic activities of individual fractions were determined. The Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm and its formation under the effect of various drug formulations were quantitatively evaluated by spectrophotometry. Results. The stability of the liquid formulation of the enzybiotic biosynthesized by S. albus UN 44 was demonstrated. Activity of the formulation could be prolonged and additionally stabilized by adding of 0.5% polyvinyl alcohol. Fractionation of the formulation enzyme complex using gel-filtration revealed the presence of at least three proteinases of different molecular weights (80-100, 24-35 and 20 kDa) and lysoenzymes (18-22 kDa). The effectiveness of the developed liquid antibiotic formulation for the destruction and inhibition (8-10 folds) of the biofilm formation by clinical strains of P. aeruginosa was shown. Conclusions. The broad spectrum, multidirectional mechanisms of antimicrobial and regenerative action of enzybiotic drug, and the possibility of its production directly from the biotechnological process determine the prospects of its manufacturing and use as a multifunctional surface antiseptic.

Authors: Sumunar Kurnia Indah , Jannah Lu'lu'ul , Anita Anita
Published: June 2022

Non-financial performance variables such as corporate social responsibility (CSR) receive increased attention from stakeholders. This study examines whether CSR performance affects employees of Sharia financial institutions concerning organizational commitment and whether religiosity as a moderating variable strengthens or weakens that effect. Research on the role of employee performance toward CSR practices and the impact of those performances on employee behaviour is limited, especially in developing countries. In addition, the religiosity factor is still under consideration in terms of whether it affects employee performance. Based on information gathered from questionnaires distributed to employees of Sharia financial institutions in Indonesia, this study shows that CSR performance positively affects organizational commitment, and religiosity weakens the positive influence of CSR performance on organizational commitment. Employees feel CSR practices can affect their work performance because companies with good CSR practices could create a good reputation for their organization.  AbstrakVariabel kinerja non-keuangan seperti tanggung jawab sosial perusahaan (CSR) mendapat perhatian yang besar dari para pemangku kepentingan. Penelitian ini menguji apakah kinerja CSR mempengaruhi karyawan lembaga keuangan syariah terhadap komitmen organisasi dan apakah religiusitas sebagai variable moderasi memperkuat atau memperlemah efek tersebut. Penelitian tentang peran kinerja karyawan terhadap praktik CSR dan dampak sikap tersebut terhadap perilaku karyawan masih terbatas, terutama dalam konteks negara berkembang. Selain itu, faktor religiositas masih dalam pertimbangan apakah berpengaruh terhadap kinerja karyawan. Berdasarkan informasi yang dikumpulkan dari kuesioner yang dibagikan kepada karyawan lembaga keuangan syariah di Indonesia, penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa kinerja CSR berpengaruh positif terhadap komitmen organisasi, dan religiusitas memperlemah pengaruh positif kinerja CSR terhadap komitmen organisasi. Karyawan merasa praktik CSR dapat mempengaruhi kinerja di tempat kerja karena perusahaan dengan praktik CSR yang baik dapat menciptakan reputasi yang baik bagi organisasi.

The type of research used is normative juridical to examine the application of Islamic legal rules both at the methodological level (uṣul fiqh) and fiqh rules and at the product level (fiqh). The primary data of this study comes from the DSN-MUI fatwa and interviews to explore the understanding of Islamic bank management towards hybrid contracts in the DSN-MUI funding fatwa. This study indicates that from eight fatwas on DSN- MUI funding products, only fatwa No. 86 and 87 containing hybrid contracts. There are several theoretical frameworks, standards, and limitations (ḍawābiṭ) that the DSN-MUI has determined. The study also shows that the management of Islamic banks, generally, has understood the theoretical framework, standards and limitations of hybrid contracts on Islamic bank funding products only in textual concept. The textual understanding can increase the portfolio of funding products. This can be evidenced by the increasing portfolio of muḍārabah savings and income smoothing programs at Islamic banks.  Abstrak Penelitian ini mengkaji apakah manajemen bank syariah memahami kontrak hybrid dalam fatwa pendanaan DSN-MUI dan pengaruhnya terhadap pengembangan produk pendanaan di bank syariah. Metode yuridis normatif digunakan untuk mengkaji penerapan kaidah hukum Islam baik pada tataran metodologis (ushul fiqh) dan kaidah fikih maupun tataran produk (fikih). Data utama penelitian ini bersumber dari fatwa DSN-MUI dan wawancara untuk menggali pemahaman manajemen bank syariah terhadap multi akad pada fatwa pendanaan DSN-MUI. Penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa dari 8 fatwa produk pendanaan DSN-MUI hanya fatwa No. 86 dan 87 yang terdapat multi akad dengan beberapa kerangka teori, standar, dan batasan-batasan (ḍawābiṭ) yang telah ditentukan oleh DSN-MUI agar tidak terjeurumus pada multi akad yang dilarang. Penelitian ini juga menunjukan bahwa manajemen bank Syariah secara umum sudah memahami kerangka teori, standar dan batasan-batasan multi akad pada produk pendanaan bank Syariah pada konsep tekstual di mana dapat mempengaruhi peningkatan portofolio produk penadanaan. Hal ini dapat dibuktikan dengan meningkatnya portofolio tabungan mudharabah dan program income smoothing di bank Syariah.

The emergence of COVID-19 or 2019 coronavirus disease has been reported as a problem with a new type of disease caused by SARS-Voc 2. It has spread to 223 countries and 25 areas around the world, including Indonesia. COVID-19 has deeply affected many aspects of our lives, the environment, mental health and the economy. Twitter is one of the media outlets that is busy discussing news regarding the COVID-19 vaccine. Covid-19 has been a major impact. The Government has implemented policies such as large-scale social restrictions to address the spread of COVID-19. The elevated spread of COVID-19 has prompted the Government of Indonesia to encourage the production of a COVID-19 vaccine. The provision of the COVID-19 vaccine has become a boon and a boon to the people of Indonesia. A lot of people don't want to be vaccinated because the news of the impact of vaccination is spreading on social media, even if the news isn't necessarily real. The Government is looking for ways to continue vaccinating the community, including by collaborating with community leaders, influencers and others. The purpose of this study is to identify the community response to the vaccine so that the right strategy can be used. The results of this study yielded 89.79% for Naïve Bayes and 84.62% for Random Forest. Indonesians are giving positive responses to the administration of the COVID-19 vaccine.

Sign language is a non-verbal language that Deaf persons exclusively count on to connect with their social environment.The problem that occurs in two-way communication using sign language is a misunderstanding when learning new terms that need to be taught to deaf and mute people. To minimize these misunderstandings, a system is needed that can assist in correcting hand gestures so that there is no misinterpretation in teaching new terms. Several optimality properties of PCA have been identified namely: variance of extracted features is maximized; the extracted features are uncorrelated; finds best linear approximation in the mean-square sense and maximizes information contained in the extracted feature. The classification uses the Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) method. From the results of experiments with different image size variables, the largest accuracy was obtained with an image size of 449x449 of 76.20%. While the lowest accuracy of 52.38% is obtained through scenarios with image sizes of 57x57 and 45x45. Therefore, differences in the use of image sizes have an influence on the accuracy of hand signal prediction. The smaller the size given, the smaller the accuracy obtained. This is indicated by the decreasing accuracy value when given a smaller size in the four scenarios that have been studied.

Sex classification is part of forensic anthropological identification aimed at determining whether the skeleton belongs to a male or a female. This paper exhibits the performance of the Support Vector Machine (SVM) in classifying the sex of the sacrum in forensic anthropology. Bone data was measured by the metric method based on six variables, namely superior breadth, anterior length, mid ventral breadth, real height, diameter the base, and max-transverse diameter of the base. This study shows performance analysis of SVM using the library libSVM with linear, polynomial, and RBF kernel to observe the results of the comparison of the accuracy of the kernel used. According to the results of the trials, the best accuracy was attained in each kernel function, i.e., the RBF kernel is 83.33% with g = 1 and C = 1, the polynomial is 85.56% at γ = 2, C = 2 and d =1, and the linear kernel obtained best accuracy is 84.44 % with C = 2 and C = 3. In conformity with the experimental result, polynomial attained the highest accuracy of 85.56% at γ = 2, C = 2, and d =1.

Health insurance helps people to obtain quality and affordable health services. The claim billing process is manually input code to the system, this can lack of errors and be suspected of being fraudulent. Claims suspected of fraud are traced manually to find incorrect inputs. The increasing volume of claims causes a decrease in the accuracy of tracing claims suspected of fraud and consumes time and energy. As an effort to prevent and reduce the occurrence of fraud, this study aims to determine the pattern of data on the occurrence of fraud based on the formation of data groupings. Data was prepared by combining claims for inpatient bills and patient bills from hospitals in 2020. Two methods were used in this study to form clusters, DBSCAN and KMeans. To find out the outliers in the cluster, Local Outlier Factor (LOF) was added. The results from experiments show that both methods can detect outlier data and distribute outlier data in the formed cluster. Variable that high effect becomes data outlier is the length of stay, claims code, and condition of patient when discharged from the hospital. Accuracy K-Means is 0.391, 0.003 higher than DBSCAN, which is 0.389.
