The Effects of Direct Democracy on Stock Market Risk and Returns: An Event Study from Switzerland
Authors: Morley Bruce
Published: January 2023

The aim of this study was to determine whether referendums affect stock price risks and returns, using an event study approach. Daily end period data for the Swiss stock market index, the STOXX European market index, and the Swiss/US exchange rate running from the beginning of 2004 to June 2021, along with the EGARCH model, were applied to determine the effects on both the market’s return and volatility. The results suggest that the day after the referendum, there was little evidence of a positive effect on stock returns. However, using a longer window of three days before and after the referendum, there was evidence of a positive effect from the referendum on the market’s returns and a negative effect on its volatility. Analysing the effects of referendums on both asset returns and risks allows for a more comprehensive assessment of how they impact on the economy, with these results supporting previous studies that found a positive effect on economic returns, and also showing they can reduce risks.

Published: January 2023

In the process of the comprehensive recovery and utilization of discarded lithium-ion batteries via acid leaching, a large number of NiS and CoS mixed materials are produced. To improve the metal recovery rate, the kinetics and rate-determining step of the oxygen-rich pressurized acid leaching of Ni and Co were investigated. The results showed that the leaching rates of Ni and Co were greater than 99% under the following conditions: sulfuric acid (leaching agent) concentration of 95 g/L, liquid-to-solid ratio of 6:1, leaching time of 120 min, temperature of 110 °C, stirring speed of 400 r/min, 90% oxygen-rich atmosphere, and pressure of 1.2 MPa. The leaching of Ni and Co was described by the shrinking unreacted core model, and the leaching rates of Ni and Co conformed to the kinetic equation 1 − (1 − x)1/3 = k·t. The apparent activation energies of the Ni and Co leaching reactions were 50.87 and 45.6 kJ/mol, respectively, and the leaching process was found to be controlled by the chemical reaction at the interface.

Published: January 2023

A selective, sensitive, and rapid liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed and validated for the quantitation of ICG in rat plasma. The chromatographic separation was achieved using an ACE excel C18 (3 µm, 50 × 3.0 mm) column, with a mobile phase composition of 0.1% formic acid and 0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile, using a gradient flow at a rate of 0.3 mL/min. The MS was operated at a unit resolution in the multiple reaction monitoring mode, using the precursor ion → product ion combinations of 753.3 → 330.2 m/z (ICG) and 747.45 → 717.50 (Cy7.5 amine) with a run time of 5 min. The assay was linear over a concentration range of 1–1000 ng/mL with a regression coefficient (r2) of 0.998 or better. The inter and intra-batch precision (% relative standard deviation, %RSD) was lower than 13.5%, with accuracy (%Bias) between −10.03% and 11.56%. The ICG was stable under laboratory storage and handling conditions. The validated method was successfully applied to preclinical pharmacokinetic (PK) studies of ICG at a dose of 0.39 mg/kg in rats. PK parameters suggested the highest plasma concentration within 2 min of intravenous dosing with restricted systemic distribution and rapid clearance.
Empirical Testing of a Multidimensional Model of School Dropout Risk
Authors: Paksi Borbála , Széll Krisztián , Fehérvári Anikó
Published: January 2023

Education systems are working to reduce dropout risk, thereby reducing early leaving from education and training rates (ELET) for a more sustainable society. There is a wealth of research on the causes of dropout risk, but little that looks at it in a complex way. Previous research has typically examined the association of a single factor with school dropout. This paper aims to examine the collective relationship between individual, family, and school-level factors and dropout risk based on international literature. Our analyses are based on two online surveys that were conducted among teachers and students in the 2018/2019 and the 2019/2020 academic years respectively (using the data of 2649 students and 2673 teachers from 149 schools in total). Multiple linear regression analyses were performed, and the (ordinary least squares—OLS) regression models were built hierarchically (blockwise entry) with the ENTER method. The research question was which factors are more likely to predict dropout risk. The findings reveal that individual and family factors are far more strongly associated with students’ dropout risk than school-related factors. The two strongest individual factors are learning engagement and performance-oriented learning School factors hardly have a role in preventing dropping out of school. Four of the school factors appear to have a definite effect: standards set for students and teachers, belief in the school’s role to compensate for disadvantages, and positive school climate. All this draws the attention of practising teachers, school leaders and educational policymakers that the school’s protective factors should be stepped up, and the preventive intervention should focus primarily on these factors.
Synthesis of Quadband mm-Wave Microstrip Antenna Using Genetic Algorithm for Wireless Application
Authors: Dejen Arebu , Jayasinghe Jeevani , Ridwan Murad , Anguera Jaume
Published: January 2023

Antennas with multifunctional capabilities integrated into a single device that demonstrates a high performance are in demand, and microstrip antennas with quadband coverage are very useful for a wide range of mm-wave applications. Antennas and propagation at mm-wave frequencies, on the other hand, poses several challenges which can be overcome by applying performance enhancement techniques to meet design objectives. This article presents the use of a binary-coded genetic algorithm for developing an improved quadband mm-wave microstrip patch antenna. The patch shape was optimized by dividing a conducting surface into 6 × 6 tiny rectangular blocks. The algorithm generated the solution space by introducing conducting and nonconducting features for each radiating cell on the patch surface and then greedily searched for the best-fitted individual based on the cost function. With the combination of High-Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) and MATLAB, candidate antennas were iteratively modeled by applying the suggested algorithm. The optimized antenna resonated at four frequencies centered at 28.3 GHz, 38.1 GHz, 46.6 GHz, and 60.0 GHz. The antenna realized a peak broadside directivity of 7.8 dB, 8.8 dB, 7.3 dB, and 7.1 dB, respectively, with a total operating bandwidth of 11.5 GHz. The research findings were compared with related works presented in the literature and found that the optimized antenna outperformed them in terms of bandwidth, directivity, and efficiency.
Higher-Spin Currents, Operator Mixing and UV Asymptotics in Large-N QCD-like Theories
Authors: Bochicchio Marco
Published: January 2023

We extend to operator mixing—specifically, to higher-spin twist-2 operators—the asymptotic theorem on the ultraviolet asymptotics of the spectral representation of 2-point correlators of multiplicatively renormalizable operators in large-N confining QCD-like theories. The extension is based on a recent differential geometric approach to operator mixing that involves the Poincaré-Dulac theorem and allows us to reduce generically the operator mixing to the multiplicatively renormalizable case, provided that γ0β0 is diagonalizable and a certain nonresonant condition for its eigenvalues holds according to the Poincaré-Dulac theorem, with γ0 and β0 the one-loop coefficients of the anomalous dimension matrix and beta function respectively. Relatedly, we solve a conundrum about the generic nonconservation of higher-spin currents versus the conservation—up to contact terms—of the corresponding free propagators in the spectral representation of 2-point correlators of higher-spin operators of pure integer spin to the leading large-N order.

Published: January 2023

Motor vehicle accidents continue to cause thousands of life threatening injuries or mortality (nearly 45,000 deaths in 2021) in the United States. A sixteen year-old young man riding a motorcycle was severely injured when struck by an automobile driven by an individual under the influence of alcohol. Multiple long bone fractures, the left renal artery torn off the aorta, with non-function of the left kidney, urinary bladder rupture with cystourethral injury, thoracic aortic disruption, and splenic fracture injuries were present. Emergency repair of the thoracic aorta, splenectomy, and left renal artery bypass were all completed. Absorbable suture repair of the urinary bladder and cystouretheral junction injuries followed Foley and suprapubic bladder decompression. All long bone fractures were stabilized and corrected. Normal urinary function of the left kidney returned, and urinary bladder control accompanied the four-month recuperation. Six and twelve month follow-up showed almost normal mobility with normal bilateral renal and urinary bladder function.

Penelitian terkait stigma perempuan tanpa anak masih jarang diteliti khususnya di Indonesia. Masalah perempuan tanpa anak memang fenomena laten. Di beberapa negara maju, perempuan tanpa anak mengalami dampak secara psikologis atas stigma yang mereka dapatkan. Berdasarkan beberapa faktor tersebut peneliti ingin meneliti dua aspek penting, yaitu bagaimana pengalaman stigma yang dihadapi perempuan tanpa anak, Kedua, bagaimana perempuan tanpa anak mengelola stigma yang dihadapinya.  Peneliti menggunakan pendekatan teori Komunikasi Manajemen Stigma untuk membedah masalah. Penelitian ini menggunakan data kualitatif dengan melakukan wawancara terhadap 9 perempuan yang mengalami kondisi tanpa anak minimal 3 tahun sejak menikah. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa informan mengalami pelabelan seperti perempuan workaholic terutama dari lingkungan keluarga. Informan menggunakan dua strategi, yaitu menerima stigma dan menentang stigma. Dampak yang dirasakan informan setelah menerima stigma adalah mereka optimis, merasa kesepian, dan hidup lebih damai. Sedangkan informan yang menentang stigma memiliki efek meningkatkan kepercayaan diri dan lebih fokus pada kehidupan pribadi. Peneliti merokemendasikan agar ke depan ada penelitian dikaitkan dengan etnis budaya.
Studi Dekonstruksi: Menyingkap Identitas Muslimah Di Media Rahma.id
Authors: Mawlana Akbar , Ulumuddin Naufalul Ihya , Pratama Adhitya Prasta
Published: January 2023

Perempuan muslimah menjadi subjek yang mengalami ketidakstabilan rekognisi. Ketidakstabilan terbentuk melalui logosentrisme universalitas yang telah menubuh di kesadaran masyarakat. Penilaian masyarakat selalu berfokus “di pusat”, tetapi melupakan sesuatu yang berjalan “di pinggiran”. Penelitian ini bertujuan mendekonstruksi perempuan muslimah yang selama ini terkonstruksi sebagai subjek lemah, tidak berdaya, dan terpenjara oleh representasi agama dan budaya. Studi media menjadi fokus utama dari penelitian ini. Pemilihan studi media berangkat dari realitas postmodern yang tidak bisa terlepas dengan teks dan media. Rahma.id menjadi fokus utama media ini. Pemilihan Rahma.id karena berorientasi pada perempuan muslimah, serta menjadi media baru yang sudah menampung banyak narasi tentang perempuan, gender, dan Islam. Dekonstruksi Derrida menjadi pisau analisis, mengingat konsepnya yang ingin mendobrak kemapanan masyarakat modern secara pembacaan differance. Melalui dekonstruksi Derrida, memperoleh hasil bahwa ada nilai gender yang terlupakan untuk menjadi narasi dalam media. Padahal, perempuan muslimah memiliki karakter multikultural, multi perspektif, dan multi disipliner.

Published: January 2023

The information media influences public attitudes in many aspects of life, including those concerning public political attitudes. Therefore the position of the media is very strategic in mapping public political attitudes. The media carrying the message constructs the message it makes. This study aims to analyze student reviews of the media coverage of Anies Baswedan as a presidential candidate in 2004. This study was designed with a qualitative approach, reception analysis method. Data collection techniques were obtained through surveys, literature review and documentation. The results of the study show that students have various attitudes after they learn about media coverage. Students who have a dominant-hegomonic position have reasons that Anies Baswedan is the best figure currently available; students who are in a negotiated position choose the moderate path to be more careful with the reason that they will first study the political figures that will appear ahead of the upcoming 2024 Indonesian presidential election; students who took an oppositional position without hesitation immediately rejected him on the grounds that Anies Baswedan was not fit to be president of Indonesia.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat framing yang dilakukan oleh media online CNN Indonesia.com dan Detik.com terhadap kasus korupsi Gubernur Papua, Lukas Enembe. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan penelitian kualitatif. Dengan demikian, penelitian ini melihat makna dari permasalahan individu atau kelompok dalam kehidupan manusia. Penelitian ini menggunakan model analisis Robert Entman untuk mengenalisis framing CNN Indonesia.com dan Detik.com. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan melakukan observasi melalui media online. Peneliti melihat berita tentang Lukas Enembe pada periode November. Peneliti kemudian memilih berita yang relevan dengan perkembangan kasus korupsi Lukas Enembe. Peneliti selanjutnya menganalisis berita-berita yang relevan tersebut menggunakan model analisis framing Robert Entman. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa CNN Indonesia.com memframing ketua KPK, Firli Bahuri melakukan pelanggaran standar etika penegakan hukum. Firli Bahuri juga dibingkai sebagai sosok yang mengistimewakan tersangka korupsi karena Ia belum pernah melakukannya sebelumnya. Sementara itu, Detik.com memframing Firli Bahuri telah melanggar standar etika penegakan hukum. Porsi pemberitaan mengenai Lukas Enembe dan bagaimana status serta kondisi kesehatannya lebih sedikit dibandingkan suasana pertemuan bersama Firli Bahuri. Detik.com juga tidak menunjukkan keterangan yang diberikan KPK menyoal keterlibatan Firli Bahuri dalam pertemuan tersebut. Analisis model Entman tidak cukup untuk menjelaskan realitas media secara komprehensif. Tidak semua berita menawarkan pilihan moral dan pemecahan masalah. Karena keterbatasan tersebut, penelitian ini membutuhkan alat analisis lain untuk menjelaskan fenomena tersebut. Investigasi yang lebih mendalam dengan alat analisis lain diperlukan untuk mendapatkan gambaran yang lebih utuh dari segi framing.

Reflecting Pictorial Language Design for Tactile Pictogram (Tactogram)
Authors: Fadhlillah Fariz
Published: January 2023

This paper is intended to reflect on an appropriate pictorial language design for the tactogram. The research method used document study analysis based on the three previous studies. The data included the results of designing pictorial language using Tabrani's 'ancient visual language' theories. Tabrani revealed how to read stories in pictures through translating the drawn multiple images in a panel as motion descriptions of the object. The author assumed the descriptive image system as a suitable pictorial language concept in designing tactogram for the visually impaired as orientation and mobility system in train stations. In general, if the visually impaired still cannot understand the meaning of the tactogram symbols simultaneously with their sequential reading principle, then the pictorial language is not optimal yet. It indicates some errors in designing its system because it does not meet the visually impaired ability and habits to read tactile graphic-based information.

Walter van Terwaan over de Passie van Karel en de wraak Gods. Genre, compositie, stijl en tekst van de Vita Karoli

Bert Demyttenaere & Louk C. Meijer, Walter van Terwaan over de Passie van Karel en de wraak Gods. Genre, compositie, stijl en tekst van de Vita Karoli

Op 2 maart 1127 werd Karel, graaf van Vlaanderen en zoon van koning Knut iv

van Denemarken, vermoord en nog in hetzelfde jaar begon Walter, aartsdiaken van Terwaan, daarover te schrijven. Zijn werk, de Vita Karoli, bevat een heiligenleven, meer in het bijzonder een Passio waarin hij aan Karel de kenmerken van een heilige koningmartelaar toeschrijft en een analogie suggereert tussen de passie van Jezus en het gewelddadig levenseinde van Karel. De Vita Karoli is echter meer dan een simpele hagiografische tekst. Walter gaat ook in op de politieke verwikkelingen in Vlaanderen en, uitvoerig, op de “ wraak Gods” : het gruwelijke lot van de gravenmoordenaars en hun trawanten. Aan Walters werk ligt een beredeneerde uitwendige en inwendige ordening ten grondslag. Om de toegankelijkheid van zijn werk te verhogen en de lezer die iets wil opzoeken te helpen vat Walter zijn werk in beknopte, door hem genummerde titels samen en belooft de nummering in de loop van de tekst te herhalen. Hij biedt ons hier een duidelijke aanwijzing van een relatief nieuwe, consultatieve houding ten opzichte van geschreven informatie, een houding die onder de geletterde elites in het Westen vrij algemeen zou worden. Wat betreft de inhoud ordent Walter zijn stof volgens twee door de retorica gegeven schema’s : de natuurlijke orde, de ordo naturalis, waarbij het verhaal de chronologische loop der gebeurtenissen volgt, en de ordo artificialis,

waarbij de auteur een eigen orde schept en bijvoorbeeld op flashbacks beroep doet. Bij Walter staat de “ natuurlijke orde” voorop en waar hij daarvan afwijkt geeft hij dit zorgvuldig aan. Doorheen zijn hele werk manifesteert hij zich als een geletterd man, zeer bedreven in de “ kleuren van de redekunst”. Drie voorname stijlfiguren, vaak onderling vervlochten, kenmerken zijn proza : paronomasia (het samenbrengen van gelijkluidende woorden, leidend tot alliteratie, klankrijmen of volrijmen), contrast (het samenbrengen van woorden of woordgroepen met contrasterende betekenis) en parallellie (de overeenkomstige opbouw van opeenvolgende zinsdelen of zinnen). Mede op grond van die stijlkenmerken kan men enige kanttekeningen plaatsen bij de handschriftelijke overlevering zoals die in de jongste editie van de vita Karoli gepresenteerd wordt.
Une idéologie urbaine « bricolée » en Flandre médiévale : les Sept Portes de Bruges dans le manuscrit Gruuthuse (début du xve siècle)
Authors: Dumolyn Jan
Published: January 2023

En définissant l’idéologie urbaine de la fin du Moyen Âge comme un «discours politique et social systématique, constitué d’éléments propres à la vie urbaine au Moyen Âge et représentant les rapports de force dans la ville elle-même et avec le monde extérieur » , on étudiera ici le cas de Bruges vers l’an 1400, et plus spécifiquement un poème allégorique du fameux chansonnier de Gruuthuse. Si on le replace dans son contexte culturel, social et politique, ce texte est révélateur de la construction d’une idéologie urbaine dans cette ville flamande. Inspiré par différentes sortes de répertoires sémantiques, issus sans doute en premier lieu de la pensée chrétienne, le citadin en tant que «bricoleur » – pour utiliser la notion de Claude Lévi-Strauss – compose un discours propre qui n’a pas encore de caractéristiques civiles autonomes, mais qui correspond néanmoins à des circonstances spécifiques de la ville de Bruges au Bas Moyen Âge.
A latere principis. Le Conseil Suprême des Pays-Bas et de Bourgogne sous Philippe II, 1588-1598
Authors: Vermeir René
Published: January 2023

Dans cet article il est question du premier Conseil Suprême des Pays-Bas et de Bourgogne à Madrid. Il fut érigé par Philippe II en 1588 et il exista jusqu’au moment où, en 1598, les Pays-Bas passèrent aux archiducs. On étudiera les facteurs qui ont mené à sa création – tardive en comparaison avec des institutions similaires au sommet de l’Empire espagnol – ainsi que la composition, les compétences et le fonctionnement effectif du Conseil. Ces analyses montrent que l’importance réelle de l’institution était très réduite mais que néanmoins tant le gouverneur général que le roi essayèrent de s’en servir pour leurs propres buts politiques.
Burning Bodies. Catholic Hydropathy and Mystical Performance
Authors: Peeters Evert
Published: January 2023

The mystical revival in twentieth century Catholicism was of a paradoxical kind. One of its paradoxes concerned the emergence of the mystical body. It has been said before that, although new Catholic mysticism was constructed especially in writing, bodily practices such as feasting and bleeding played a key role in these literary representations. Following Stephen Schloesser, some have maintained that this bodily obsession brought along a “ modernist” revision of tradition since it destabilized age old demarcations between (spiritual) holiness and (bodily) sin. It remained unclear, however, whether Catholic bodies were conceptually freed from the flesh, yet buried even deeper within it. In this essay, I will question the boundaries of twentieth century Catholic mysticism in confronting the neo-Catholic writing of Léon Bloy with Catholic hydropathy and so-called natural lifestyle (or life reform). This “ medical” repertoire simultaneously referred to Hippocratic antiquity and the bathing rituals of Lourdes. Ascetic and sometimes painful procedures were to make the body “ burn” in order to turn it into a vehicle for religious conversion. Especially in sexual discourse, however, this procedure could not take away the body’s fatal power. Like Catholicism itself, the mystical body remained entirely localized within the sinful modern discourses from which so many had hoped to escape.
The Poetics of Sainthood in Interwar Catholic Literature: A Reading of Sous le soleil de Satan and The Power and the Glory
Authors: Chappel James
Published: January 2023

It has long been recognized that early twentieth-century Catholicism experienced a renaissance of both mysticism and the novel. In this essay, I will examine these phenomena together, and ask what sorts of aesthetic, philosophical, and theological commitments were required to translate mystical spirituality into the characteristic genre of secular, bourgeois modernity. In the past, the mystic had been portrayed in the hagiography, a form that remained enticing to Catholic aesthetic theorists like Jacques Maritain. Georg Lukács, however, disagreed, arguing that the rise of the novel made the hagiography impossible. By reading George Bernanos’s Sous le soleil de Satan and Graham Greene’s The Power and the Glory alongside Maritain and Lukács, this paper shows that Catholic novelists were, paradoxically, inclined to agree with Lukács, the atheist. Mysticism could only be translated into the novel form by testing the boundaries of orthodoxy – the orthodoxies of art and those of faith.
Gender Analysis of Organizational Stereotypes in Bangladesh
Authors: Chowdhury Kuntala
Published: January 2023

As women are becoming eng aged more in economic sector gender analysis of this sector is very necessary. They are doing their work in different organization and every organization has their own work culture. An organization is composed of two or more people and they work to attain certain set of goals (Robbins, 1998). Every organization has specific nature to increase their profit and to attain their goals. In most of the cases it has also been noticed that gender discrimination exist in the culture of organization (Sobering, 2016) following some stereotypes. The problem is that the mainstream values of any office is associated with hegemonic masculinities and expect these kinds of behavior from everybody. In my report I will try to show how mainstream patriarchal stereotypes of gender marginalize women and what could be possible way out for gender mainstreaming in organization

Investigating the Link between Financial Development and Poverty Reduction in Pakistan through Financial Inclusion
Authors: Nasir Munir  , Batool Zakia , Ghazanfar Bilal
Published: January 2023

The goal of this study is to determine how financial inclusion and development have affected Pakistan's efforts to reduce poverty. The ARDL method is used to analyze time series data from 2000 to 2020. To measure financial inclusion, the study constructs an index using the number of depositors, financial institutions, ATMs, and borrowers. The credit to the private sector as a percentage of GDP is used to measure financial development, while inflation and real interest rate are included as additional variables. The findings of the study indicate that both financial inclusion and development have a significant effect on reducing poverty. In addition, the results show that inflation and real interest rate have a positive relationship with poverty. These findings suggest that the availability of financial services can lead to poverty reduction and overall societal welfare.

Chitosan and chitosan derivatives are biomaterials of great scientific interest for biomedical applications although some of the properties are limited as their solubility in the aqueous medium. N-heterocyclic compounds are of interest for chitosan alkylation and new derivatives can be obtained by modification of his structure resulting thus new structures of biomedical interest Chitosan samples from two sources were analysed, in which the dissociation is favoured in the aqueous medium by the presence of a bipyridine salt, N,N'-bis(phenacyl)-4,4'-bipyridinium dibromide. The synthesis of chitosan’ derivate was conducted in aqueous medium at 60 °C, by magnetic stirring for 24 hours. The dissociation is better and reduced the pH, to values lower than pH 6, which suggests the achievement of favourable structural arrangements between chitosan and dibromide bipyridinium. The FTIR spectra parameters indicate the presence of characteristic bands of the bipyridinium salt in the chitosan derivates structures, with structural differences in their composition.

Authors: Mohd Rosli Nor Aidatul Hazirah , Ibrahim Teo Noor Hasimah
Published: January 2023

A grocery list is frequently used to make sure that only essential items are bought and nothing else is forgotten. Due to the extensive list of items, they must buy each month, people frequently forget what they need to buy when they get to the supermarket. Even with a list, there are still things that get left out. Therefore, an application called MyGrocery is proposed that offers suggestions for items users frequently buy together and aids users in creating grocery lists. This might help them make a personalised grocery list with items that are suggested based on their past purchases. The aim is to help them keep track of what they have bought as well as to help them create personalised grocery lists. Market basket analysis is used to find associations between items in MyGrocery using past purchased history. The result shows the significant recommendation by MyGrocery where the Market Basket Analysis, which is carried out using the Apriori Algorithm, displayed the recommended item following the calculation of lift value.
