Authors: Wiranthi Puspi Eko , Aminudin Iwan , Dewi Eka Rachmawati
Published: March 2019

In this study, we examine the determinants of Indonesian canned tuna export to the European Union (EU) market through a gravity model approach. This paper employs a gravity model approach through Poisson Pseudo-Maximum Likelihood (PPML) estimation. Data from 2006 to 2015 covering 10 countries (the Netherlands, Belgium, Italy, Germany, Poland, Portugal, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom) were employed with HS 160414 product code specification. Constant Market Share Analysis (CMSA) was performed to examine Indonesian export growth as well as its competitors. The findings indicated that the performance of Indonesian canned tuna exports to the EU market is prominently affected by competitiveness effect while Thai canned tuna export is more affected by import growth and composition effect. The Philippines and Vietnam canned tuna exports are more affected by composition and competitiveness effect. Finally, population of the importing countries, tuna production volumes and real exchange rates significantly affect Indonesian canned tuna export to the EU.

Authors: Kuzmin Oleg , Stanasiuk Natalia , Vivchar Olexandra
Published: March 2019

The purpose of the paper is the formation of a new type of industrial clusters as a modern basis for the spatial development of industrial potential. Methodology. The methodological basis of the article is methods of scientific cognition, which allow revealing the essence of the clustering process. In particular, the following methods are used: fuzzy cluster analysis – for the construction of intellectual-innovative industrial clusters; grouping – for the determination of types of intellectually-innovative industrial clusters; systematization – for studying foreign experience; abstraction – for the formation of theoretical generalization and conclusions. Results. Foreign experience of effective cluster structures creation in the industrial sector of the economy is analysed and the necessity of establishing cooperation between education, science, and business structures is proved. By means of the indistinct S-averages method, taking into account indicators of development of industrial potential intellectual and innovative components, measures matrices of Ukraine’s administrative-territorial units belonging to four clusters have been developed, each of the clusters differs by the development level of corresponding component (very high, high, average, and low). On the basis of the achieved results, the conclusion is made that it is necessary to create intellectually-innovative industrial clusters in which administrative-territorial units with the high development level of intellectual potential will act as a catalyst of innovative development of the industrial potential. The role of the state is defined as an activator of establishing cooperation between education, science, and business structures. It was offered to work out the conception of cluster policy and distinguish pilot projects in the industrial sector of the economy taking into account modern directions of the global economic development. Global practical experience of stimulation of industrial potential innovative development is generalized on a cluster basis. With the aim to institutionalize the activity of intellectually-innovative industrial clusters creation, it is offered to use a cluster passport with the introduction of such sections as innovativeness of a project and relevance to the strategic targets of the state economic development. Practical implications. Practical implications are related to the possibility of establishing an effective dialogue not only between business structures but also with educational establishments, scientific institutions, and government bodies. Value/originality lies in the development of a typology of industrial clusters taking into account indicators of development of intellectual and innovative components and the formation on this basis of the cluster concept of the development of industrial potential.

Published: March 2019

The aim of the article is to analyse legal regulations and perspectives available in the specialized literature concerning financial and economic bases of the functioning of state executive bodies, which should be strengthened and formed according to one of the areas of administrative reform in Ukraine. The subject of the study is financial and economic bases of the functioning of state executive bodies: past, present, and prospects of improvement. Methodology. The study is based on the use of general scientific and special-scientific methods and techniques of scientific knowledge. The historical and legal method enabled to analyse the legal regulations of administrative and financial law on past, present, and prospects of improvement of financial and economic bases of the functioning of state executive bodies. The comparative legal method was used to improve the system of executive bodies and their authorities’ exercise. The system-structural method enabled to consider and identify the most negative effects of the insufficient financing of executive branch activities and the exercise of their authorities. The methods of grouping and classifying were the basis for the author’s approach to the identification of forms of financing state executive bodies. The technical legal method enabled to interrogate the state of affairs in financial and economic bases of the functioning of state executive bodies. The results of the study enabled to highlight the drivers of the improvement of forms of financing state executive bodies. Practical implications. In the study, scientific sources and legal regulations of administrative and financial law on past, present, and prospects of improvement of financial and economic bases of the functioning of state executive bodies are interrogated. The article highlights that strengthening and forming new financial and economic bases of the functioning of state executive bodies have been provided for by one of the areas of the Concepts of Administrative Reform, which nowadays is implemented both at the legislative and law enforcement levels. It was concluded that the formation of new financial and economic bases of the functioning of state executive bodies failed. There is only modelling of certain forms of financing of state executive bodies, familiar to the history of the origin and development of these bodies. Therefore, financial and economic bases of the functioning of state executive bodies should be interrogated by representatives of both administrative and financial law not only from a historical perspective or from a modern perspective but also with a view to the future. Relevance/originality. The original author’s approach to the definition of financial and economic bases of the functioning of state executive bodies is the basis for developing the most promising areas of improvement of domestic legislation in this sphere.
MODELLING OF ENTERPRISE’S ACCOUNTING POLICY: THEORETICAL ASPECT
Authors: Sysoieva Inna , Balaziuk Oksana , Pylypenko Liubomyr
Published: March 2019

The purpose of this article is to study the possibility of modelling accounting policies and accounting processes. Since accounting processes don’t have defined parameters, to study them we can model their functional features and forecast the behaviour of the object in question in various situations. It is achieved by means of developing certain sign patterns: charts, schemes, unified forms and rules for filling them out. Such modelling is called sign modelling. The most important type of sign modelling is logical-mathematic. In logical mathematic modelling, sign formations and their elements are considered in connection with certain transformations and operations with them. A logical mathematic model (LMM) is a basis (mathematic and linguistic provision) for creating algorithms for accounting processes and software development. Since the accounting objects are rather diversified, the principles of processing corresponding information can also differ. For instance, the most efficient accounting methods and approaches for large enterprises and turn out to be irrational for small enterprises and even result in additional losses and unnecessary increase in the amount of differently detailed information. Methods of the research: the statistical method of the questionnaire and generalization for studying the preconditions of accounting policy development at enterprises; the method of expert evaluation of strong and weak points of the analysed enterprises to define options and threats for their economic activity. Practical results. The content of the conceptual apparatus “accounting policies” is considered. The expediency of application of mathematical modelling information of accounting policy of the enterprise for the choice of effective methods of conducting financial accounting is substantiated. Elements of stages of the process of modelling accounting processes and accounting policy are studied and improved. When creating an accounting model, it is important to take into account which of the factors should be entered into the model. On the one hand, while using a model for forecasting, it is necessary to take into account as many factors as possible. On the other hand, gathering and processing large amounts of information are time-consuming, therefore, it is better to reduce the number of factors restricting by the most powerful ones. Value/originality. The choice of accounting policy should be based on modelling, the central link of which is a system of accounting and analytical support.

Relevance/originality. The methods of financial control are defined and classified. The absence of a check without linkage to the subject (public procurements) among the forms of control of the SFI of Ukraine is revealed so that independent coexistence of such a form of control as “public procurement check,” which methods are documentary and/or factual examination, can be asserted.
FRANCHISE AGREEMENT IN ROMANIA AS A FORM TO PROVIDE ECONOMIC EFFICIENCY OF BUSINESS ACTIVITY
Authors: Vdovichen Vitalii , Voroniatnikov Oleksandr
Published: March 2019

The purpose of the article is to study the economic and legal nature of the franchise agreement in Romania. Franchising has become one of the most effective tools for economic activity and profiting in this country, and the franchising agreement is a form, in which all aspects of this activity are reflected: the rights and obligations of the parties, the price of the franchise, the duration of the franchise relations, transactions between the franchisor and the franchisee, the prohibition of competitive actions, etc. The subject of the study is the franchise agreement in Romania. Research methodology. The research is based on the use of general scientific and special-scientific methods and techniques of scientific knowledge. The dialectical method allowed us to investigate the definition of a franchise agreement in Romania and its key terms. The comparative legal method was used to compare doctrinal approaches to this issue. The statistical method was used to establish data that reflects the effectiveness of franchising activities. The method of system analysis helped to find out, in which areas of economic activity franchising is most demanded. Interpretation of the content of Romanian legal acts governing issues related to the conclusion of a franchise agreement in this country was realized with the help of the normative-dogmatic method. The system-structural method was used to study the franchise agreement in Romania as a single entity (system) with the coordinated functioning of all its elements. The methods of grouping and classifying formed the basis for separating the list of conditions, which are necessary for concluding a franchise agreement in Romania, as well as provisions that should be included in the content of this agreement. Methods of analysis and synthesis helped to study some parts of this agreement to formulate further conclusions. Practical application. The positive experience of Romania in regulating issues related to the conclusion of a franchise contract can be used for making appropriate changes to the Ukrainian legislation. Thus, in Romania, a special regulatory act (Ordinance 52/1997), which regulates the procedure for concluding this agreement, defines the rights and obligations of the parties and establishes the essential terms of the contract and the principles for its implementation, was adopted. Issues which are not regulated by the Ordinance are subject to the Civil and the Commercial Codes of the country, as well as European legislation, which sets out requirements for the prohibition of competition. Correlation/originality. This scientific work is the first research in Ukraine devoted not only to general issues of regulation of franchising activity in Europe but specifically to the franchise agreement in a separate country (in Romania) and its legal and economic peculiarities.

Authors: Gorina Ganna , Barabanova Valentina
Published: March 2019

Under the conditions of modern European integration processes, the quality of providing tourism services, which should meet the requirements of the population as much as possible, gains momentum. The regulation of tourism development in Ukraine according to European standards and regulations impose the task of upgrading the tourism industry, search for innovative instruments to improve its functioning based on the best European practices example of the Baltic States. Marketing approaches in managing the demand for tourism services by means of innovative technologies are insufficiently defined. Among the scholars who investigated the marketing aspects in the field of tourism activities should be distinguished the following: N. E. Kudla, I. Yu. Martynov, O. M. Pravyk, I. M. Shkoda and so on. The methodology is based on a systematic approach to the market for tourist services, marketing analysis as a management concept for this market, on the use of modelling as a methodological principle and a method of scientific knowledge. The mechanisms of increasing the efficiency of marketing activities in the field of tourism through the structural-functional model and model of management of the marketed approach system are determined. At the present stage, the issues of finding and implementing modern mechanisms for the formation and management of demand for a tourism product remain unsolved. Results. The article is aimed at developing innovative methods for managing the process of implementing marketing approaches to the market for tourist services in Ukraine. Priority is the development of mechanisms for the formation of demand for tourism products through marking technologies. The authors developed a system of marking approaches, which includes the factors of the effectiveness of travel services; marking methods and techniques; forms of realization of tourist services. The mechanism of formation and management of demand for a tourist product, as well as communicative and social methods of increasing the efficiency of marking activity in the tourist services market in Ukraine, is determined. Practical implications. The article considers mechanisms of increasing the efficiency of marketing activities in the field of tourism. The expediency of using the European experience of the Baltic States for the development of tourism in Ukraine is emphasized. Directions of further researches are offered. The structural-functional model of the system of marketing approaches and the organizational model of operational management of the process of realization of marketing approaches to the market for tourist services are developed. Value/originality. The use of the proposed models will more effectively increase the efficiency of marketing activities in the modern market for tourist services. The authors prove that modelling, development, and implementation of models of marketing approaches is a powerful mechanism for achieving a new quality of tourism services market and Ukraine.
COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE CUSTOMS REGULATION OF VEHICLE IMPORT IN THE G20 COUNTRIES
Authors: Hrytsyna Lesia , Kharun Olena , Dzuba Margaryta
Published: March 2019

The purpose of this article is to conduct a comparative analysis of customs regulation procedures for the import of vehicles operating in the G20 countries, to determine the possibility of adapting and using their experience in order to improve the customs procedure in force in Ukraine. Since most researches of Ukrainian scientists mainly concern the adaptation of existing customs procedures to the requirements of the Ukraine– EU Association Agreement and the search for ways to solve the problem of shadow schemes of vehicle import, the selected research purpose is relevant. The subject-matter of the study is the procedures for customs regulation of the import of vehicles of the G20 countries. Methodology. To achieve this purpose, a set of general scientific methods was used that ensure the objectivity and validity of the results obtained, namely, methods of abstraction, comparison, analysis and synthesis, generalization. Results. The research results showed that Ukraine is far behind the leading countries in terms of implementing the standards of environmental and technical safety of imported vehicles. If compliance with the requirements of environmental safety, namely compliance with European standards, is still taken into account when importing, then the issues of technical safety are not regulated by the current customs procedure. Secondly, the system of taxes and payments that are paid in Ukraine upon importation, namely duty, excise duty, and VAT, does not provide for compensation for the negative impact of imported vehicles on the environment. Thirdly, comparing the practice of temporary importation of vehicles operating in the G20 countries and Ukraine has allowed highlighting a number of inconsistencies. So, in the G20 countries, only non-residents can use this regime in the vast majority. Citizens of the country are entitled to temporary admission only if strictly defined requirements are met. However, unlike Ukrainian practice, the very procedure for temporary admission implies the absence of requirements for payment of customs duties and other payments, regardless of whether the person who uses it is a resident or non-resident of the country. Practical significance. The conclusions made allow proposing the necessity to amend the current procedure by introducing the practice of confirming the conformity of imported vehicles with the technical requirements for their operation, increasing the tax burden on vehicles with low environmental efficiency, settling the issue of the availability of the regime of temporary admission of vehicles and strengthening control over compliance with this regime. Relevance/originality. Proposals for the adaptation and use of the experience of the leading countries in the field of customs regulation of import of vehicles are a way to prevent the negative phenomena in Ukraine in this area.
Sources to Finance Fiscal Deficit and Their Impact on Inflation:
A Case Study of Pakistan
Authors: Ali Kashif , Khalid Mahmood
Published: March 2019

Theoretically, fiscal deficit is inflationary but the sources
of financing fiscal deficit may differ in terms of their impact on
inflation. Question arises that what should be the least inflation cost
source of financing? This study attempts to answer this question and
explore the long run relationship among the sources to finance fiscal
deficit and inflation. In so doing, the estimations have been done in
four stages on the basis of categorisation of the deficit financing
heads. In the first stage it has been tested that fiscal deficit along
with money supply are inflationary. In the second stage fiscal deficit
is bifurcated into two components, domestic borrowing and external
borrowing for fiscal deficit. In the third stage, domestic borrowing is
further divided into two heads, bank and non-bank borrowing. While in
the fourth and last stage, bank borrowing is further categorised into
two parts, borrowing from scheduled banks and central bank, and non-bank
borrowing which comprises borrowing from National Saving Scheme for
budgetary support. The Johansen Cointegration Technique is used for the
first stage of estimation, while Auto Regressive Distributed Lag Model
is employed for the rest of the three stages. The study finds that there
is a long run relationship among sources of financing fiscal deficit and
inflation. Inflation is positively affected by domestic borrowing, bank
borrowing and borrowing from central bank, while central bank borrowing
is more inflationary in nature. Consequently, fiscal deficit should be
financed through external sources, non-bank and scheduled bank
borrowings. JEL Classification: H62, H74, E31 Keywords: Deficit, State

Moral Hazard, Monitoring and Punishment: Evidence from a Field
Experiment
Authors: Shah Anwar , Khan Karim , Zubair Muhammad
Published: March 2019

The existing literature establishes that there exists
inefficiency in energy consumption in Pakistan. In particular, with
regard to electricity consumption, the problem of moral hazard is
prevalent in the public sector. In this study, we observe this aspect by
focusing on the behaviour of consumers once they are held liable to
monitoring with the associated punishment mechanism. By providing
evidence from a field experiment, we make three conclusions. First,
individuals respond to both the monetary and non-monetary punishments.
Alternatively, with the introduction of punishments, they reduce moral
hazard with respect to electricity consumption. Second, the habitual
violators of rules reform their behaviour after they are made
accountable for their actions. Third, if appropriate monitoring systems
along with the associated punishment mechanism are introduced, we can
have beneficial effects in terms of resolving the energy crisis on the
aggregate level. JEL Classification: H83, D12, D00, D03, D04 Keywords:

Policy Failure in Achieving Universal Basic Education: A
Theoretical Analysis
Authors: Siddique Zahid , Jamil Faisal , Nazuk Ayesha , Ahmad Eatzaz
Published: March 2019

Universal attainment of basic education is recognised as a key
development goal; whereas early-age work is considered as a barrier to
achieving this goal. The literature suggests that returns to education
are larger than those of early-age work, and that child-labour results
in long term social loss that reduces human capital. This study
evaluates the argument that earlyage work can itself lead to
accumulation of human capital when it takes the form of apprenticeship
career path. The paper develops a model that allows a rational agent
(parent) to compare the early-age work as apprenticeship career path
with the formal education career and shows that the parents’ career
choice for their child will depend on the lifetime earnings of both
careers. The theoretical model is further extended and empirically
tested to check whether benefits of education are higher for all levels
of education. The simulation analysis suggests that for lower level of
education up to Grade-12, the benefits of apprenticeship exceed the net
benefits of education whereas, at Grade-12 and beyond, the net benefits
of education in terms of earnings outstrip the apprenticeship career.
The study implies that early-age work may not necessarily be inefficient
when compared with low levels of schooling and that any intervention
should ensure universal education for all without compromising skill
development of resource poor children. This can be achieved through
making skill development complementary to education. JEL

School Quality and Parental Schooling Decisions for Their
Children: Public and Private Schools in Rural Pakistan
Authors: Khan Muhammad Jehangir
Published: March 2019

This study uses the Pakistan Rural Household Survey 2004-5
(PRHS), a rich set of households and school data, to examine parents’
schooling decision in rural Pakistan. Nested logit regressions are used
to quantify the determinants of child school attendance. The analysis
confirms that the greater the number of schools (public or private) in
the local communities the higher is the attendance. Lower school
attendance of boys seems to be the outcome of lower school quality more
than it is for girls. A marginal increase in school quality correlates
with increased school attendance in government schools more than in
private schools. Nearly all school quality variables including control
for number of schools in a community stand insignificant for girls. This
shows that other factors might be of more importance than school quality
of local schools for girl’s low attendance in rural Pakistan. Besides,
parental education, especially mother’s education, and household income
have strong positive impact on child school attendance. The greater the
number of children in the household the lower is the child school
attendance. Credit constraint seems not to be problematic as the
estimated effect is statistically insignificant. The size of landholding
seems to be important only in the case of girls schooling. JEL

Authors: Rina Indahsari Dewi , Lia Dina Komar
Published: March 2019

One of the main causes of failure in aquaculture activities is due to disease factors. The emergence of disease disorders in fish farming is a biological risk that must always be anticipated. The emergence of diseases in fish is generally the result of complex / unbalanced interactions between the three components in the aquatic ecosystem, namely weak hosts (fish), malignant pathogens and deteriorating environmental quality. Fish cultivators must obtain fast information related to diseases that infect their fish, and how to deal with them. In this study an expert system was created to diagnose ornamental fish disease using the media website, so that it can be used at any time without having to see a doctor / expert. Knowledge base involves 23 symptoms and 5 diseases that are common in freshwater ornamental fish, using a decision table producing 20 Rule. The inference process uses the Tsukamoto fuzzy, the modeling has 23 input variables and 1 output variable. Each input variable has 3 sets and the output variable has 5 sets. The implementation results indicate that the system built can provide diagnostic results with an 85% accuracy rate.

Authorial Voice in Islamic College English Department Students’ Argumentative Writing
Authors: Afifi Nur
Published: March 2019

While considered elusive and abstract, authorial voice is paramount in English writing. Unfortunately, many of Indonesian EFL learners found it is highly challeging to show their voice in their writing. The importance of voice is even exaggerated in argumentative writing, since this kind of writing needs obvious stance of the writer. This study investigates the authorial voice students made in their argumentative writing. The purpose of this study is to gain the picture of students' writing ability especially in authorial voice to map the road in guiding the next writing classes. The object of the study is the argumentative writing made by English department students' at one Indonesian State College of Islamic Studies in their writing III course. Using Hyland's interactional  model of voice (2008) the data analysis results the authorial presence in the essays is in position 2 at 0 ² 4 scale which means the reader feels somehow weak presence of the authorial voice in the essay. This result confirms the findings of some previous studies that EFL learners especially from 'interdependent' cultural background tend to find this authorial voice difficult in writing English essay.

Authors: Amrullah Ahmad Zubaidi
Published: March 2019

This research aims at developing language games to teach speaking for the students joining English Study club as extra-curricular program at one of the State Islamic Senior High Schools in Gresik, Indonesia. It tries to develop the suitable speaking games and to investigate the students‘ responses toward the developed games. This research and development (R&D) is conducted by adapting Thiagarajan‘s (1974) model called 4D which consists of Defining, Designing, Developing, and Disseminating. The data were gained through interview and questionnaire, and observation checklist. The interview is conducted to study the frontend, specifying instructional objectives, and learner analysis. The questionnaire is employed to do task-concept analysis, to get the students‘ responses, and to submit the experts‘ appraisal. Meanwhile, the checklist is used to conduct development testing. Finally, the product of the study is in the form of a handbook entitled ―A Library of Games‖ which comprises 3 units and 50 kinds of games for teaching speaking skill.
The history of the surface temperature at Ajameti/Georgia as extracted from long-term temperature records in the subsurface
Authors: Jimsheladze Tamar , Buntebarth Guenter , Melikadze George
Published: March 2019

The transient temperature component was determined from long-term highly resolved temperature records in a borehole at Ajameti near Kutaisi in Western Georgia during the period between July 2017 and September 2018. Temperatures were recorded at depths of 100, 175 and 250 m with a resolution below the Millikelvin range and a recorded measurement frequency of 3 per hour, resulting in 72 individual measurements daily. At the depth of 100 m, a linear temperature increase of 0.0036 K/year was observed during those 15 months of measurement. At both larger depths, a precise linear trend could not be estimated. Additional impacts of water flow in the subsurface, penetrating from the surface or ascending from deeper layers during the time of measurements, superpose the transient component. The linear trend at 100 m can be understood as an increasing surface temperature at a rate of 0.015 K/year since 80 to 90 years. Two models agree with the data, i.e. a fast rise of the temperature as well as a continuous increase at a temperature diffusivity of κ= 0.9*10-6m²/s of the subsurface. The result coincides with the history of the Ajameti village which was founded in 1935, a period in which the settlement trees were probably cut to obtain a larger area of cultivated land, continuously increasing the surface temperature.

Authors: Lunding Jacob Aagaard , Ellersgaard Christoph Houman , Henriksen Lasse Folke , Larsen Anton Grau
Published: March 2019

In this paper, we propose a methodological framework to analyse cross-sectorial elite career using sequence analysis to identify particular career trajectories. As empirical case, we use 416 members of the Danish power elite, found in the core of the Danish elite networks. We describe how career data can be constructed based on CV’s, how career states can be coded and how sequence analysis in combination with optimal matching and of hierarchical agglomerative clustering can be used to develop typologies of careers.

Ahmad Yani Urban Forest (AYUF) of Bogor is a green open space which has ecological function to ameliorate the quality of it’s environment. This research’s goals are to identify the variety, numbers, and diversity of the vegetations in AYUF, to assess the ecological function of AYUF, and to give a recommendation of proper green space arrangement based on it’s ecological function. There are 85 kind of vegetations in AYUF and 678 vegetations in total. The most commonly encountered vegetation species is Mahoni (Swietenia mahagoni/macrophylla) which amounted to 94 trees. Diversity value of the vegetations in AYUF is 4,02, which belong to high diversity category. The ecological function of AYUF is good, while the amenity value is not good enough. From the total score of 400 which can be gained, score of the noise absorber function evaluation is 271,1,function of temperature modifier (shade) is 308,7, function of humidity control is 296,1, function of wind barrier is 325,8. Thermal Humidity Index value of AYUF is 27,4 not reach the amenity standard value which is 20-27, noisy level value of AYUF is still far away from amenity standard value (50 db) which is 62, while wind speed value of AYUF is 1,5 m/s which means comfort category. Recommendations which’s given include vegetation criteria for city fores, exact kind of vegetations for ecological function, composition and functional vegetation planting.
Understanding the effects of compromise and misuse of personal details on older people

An increasing number of older adults are being affected by scams that can lead to the compromise and misuse of their personal details. Previous research has investigated factors that increase the likelihood of falling victim to identity compromise and misuse; less is known about the non-financial impacts that result from the event or about the factors that influence these impacts. The aims of this study are to describe the identity compromise events experienced by older adults, and explore the non-financial impacts (i.e. behavioural, physiological, emotional and psychological), and external factors that might influence these impacts. The study used data collected by an identity compromise and misuse support service in Australia. The manner of compromise/misuse, the type and number of credentials involved, and the organisations/agencies that were contacted for advice following the event, were recorded. It was found that most events had an online element, were detected by the victim, and involved multiple identity credentials. Participants experienced a variety of behavioural, physiological, emotional and/or psychological impacts. More impacts were experienced where the event had an online element, where more credentials were compromised and where more points of contact were made to reach comprehensive advice. Misuse was not a contributory factor to the impacts experienced. Implications for further research are discussed.
