Authors: Abueid Raed , Adam Ibrahim Muhammad , Galadima Mukhtar Danladi
Published: October 2021

The purpose of this studyis to determine the relationship between corporate governance and return on equity (ROE);to examine the relationship between corporate governance and return on assets (ROA); and to analyze the relationship between corporate governance and earnings per share (EPS). To achieve the objective of the study, Fixed and Random Effect Models were employed to analyze the data.The findings revealed a negligible relationship between corporate governance and firm performance. However, when the study is controlled for financial leverage and total assets, a significant relationship between corporate governance and firm performance has been found.The practical implication of the results is that listed firms in Palestine should pay significant attention on enhancing the application of CG principles, uphold and ensure the board’s commitment to its responsibilities, and ensure that adequate disclosure procedures are in place including the evaluation mechanism used for assessing the performance of the board.Based on the findings, the study recommends that listed firms in Palestine should pay significant attention on enhancing the application of CG principles so as to better protect shareholder rights; uphold and ensure the board’s commitment to its responsibilities; and ensure that adequate disclosure procedures are in place including the evaluation mechanism used for assessing the performance of the board, its committees, and individual directors. Likewise, improving good CG practice should offer investor safety, reduce risk investment and sustain positive relationships between the company and its stakeholders which could result in higher growth in stock costs. It also recommends to the Palestinian Capital Market Authority (PCMA) to issue a stricter enforcement of CG legislation with special measures to be taken against those evading them.

Published: October 2021

This study determined the administrative staff rating of the adequacy of accommodation in tertiary institutions in Yobe State. Two research questions guided the study and two null hypotheses were tested at 0.05 level of significance. The design of the study was descriptive survey. Population of the study was 1,032 administrative staff of federal and state tertiary institutions in the study area. A proportionate sampling was used to select a sample size of 310 administrative staff. A structured questionnaire containing 15 items validated by three experts was used for data collection. Cronbach alpha method was used to establish the internal consistency of the instrument. Correlation coefficients of 0.83 and 0.81 for two clusters (B1 and B2) with an overall coefficient of 0.82 were obtained.Two hundred and ninety eight duly completed copies of the instrument were retrieved and used for data analysis. Mean and standard deviation were used to answer the research questions and to determine the homogeneity of the respondents’ ratings while the t-test was used to test the hypotheses. Findings revealed that administrative staff of tertiary institutions in Yobe State rated office accommodation and conveniences in their offices lowly adequate. The findings also showed that ownership of tertiary institution was a significant factor on the mean ratings of administrative staff on the adequacy of accommodation while ownership of tertiary institution significantly did not influence their mean ratings on the adequacy of conveniences provided in their offices. Based on the findings, the researcher concluded that researcher concluded that there is need to improve the provision of office accommodation and conveniences in tertiary institutions in Yobe State, Nigeria. It was recommended among others that, administrators of tertiary institutions in Yobe State should collaborate more with private sectors in the areas of office accommodation and conveniences provision.

Cognitive Assessment of Knowledge Consolidation in a Course on the Diagnostic Evaluation of Learning Disorders in Psychology Students
Authors: Morales-Martinez Guadalupe Elizabeth , Mezquita-Hoyos Yanko Norberto , Hedlefs-Aguilar Maria Isolde , Sanchez-Monroy Miriam
Published: October 2021

This study explored the cognitive changes to long-term memory as a result of academic learning in 43 Psychology undergraduate students (91% female and 9% male). The participants carried out a conceptual definition task based on the Natural Semantic Networks technique. They defined ten target concepts related to the diagnostic evaluation of learning disorders using verbs, nouns, or adjectives as definers. After, students weighed the quality of each definer through a ten-point scale. The higher the score, the greater the conceptual relationship between the definer and the target. The data of this study (the schema behavior) was subjected to a computational simulation. Finally, the participants carried out a lexical decision task based on the semantic priming paradigm, they read pairs of words that may or may not be related to the measured knowledge schema. The task was to judge whether the second word in each pair was spelled correctly or incorrectly. The results indicated an increase in the level of conceptual accessibility derived from learning. In addition, the participants accessed their knowledge schema, first through general nodes and then retrieved through the more specific nodes. The neurocomputational activation pattern suggested that learning experiences changed the meaning of concepts for each participant along the course. At the end of the course, the students seemed to reach a schematic consolidation. The diagnosis of these cognitive characteristics through the formation of academic schemas can provide learning opportunities closer to each student’s cognitive profile to increase the effectiveness of instruction.
Six Ways of Looking at Fractal Mechanics
Authors: Williams Rua
Published: October 2021

In this creative nonfiction essay, I traverse through permutations of “fractal mechanics” as a means of processing experiences of oppression and imagining revolutionary futures. I introduce fractal mechanics as a method for thinking through how “the institution,” broadly understood, travels and transmutes from physical structure localized in place to a set of internalized rule sets that bind themselves to transinstitutionalized “host bodies”—a NeoLiberation. Through a series of vignettes illustrating violent experiences of “inclusion,” I explore how the institution is reproduced in neoliberal constructions of inclusion, liberation, and justice. I then integrate critiques of liberation within neoliberal frames with crip imaginings of justice-in-relation to explicate how fractal mechanics can be understood not only as a method of oppression but also a method for revolution. I close with a series of imaginaries that encourage us to prefigure, or dream, a fractal politic of intercommunal connection.
3x3x6 – 9 Sq.m. and 6 Surveillance Cameras
Authors: Cheang Shu Lea , Gardner and Stephen Surlin With Paula
Published: October 2021

The title of Shu Lea Cheang’s 3x3x6 which represented Taiwan at Venice Biennale 2019 derives from the 21st century high-security prison cell measured in 9 square meter and equipped with 6 surveillance cameras. As an immersive installation, 3x3x6 is comprised of multiple interfaces to reflect on the construction of sexual subjectivity by technologies of confinement and control, from physical incarceration to the omnipresent surveillance systems of contemporary society, from Jeremy Bentham’s panopticon conceptualized in 1791 to China’s Sharp Eyes that boasts 200 million surveillance cameras with facial recognition capacity for its 1.4 billion population. By employing strategic and technical interventions, 3x3x6 investigates 10 criminal cases in which the prisoners across time and space are incarcerated for sexual provocation and gender affirmation. The exhibition constructs collective counter-accounts of sexuality where trans punk fiction, queer, and anti-colonial imaginations hacks the operating system of the history of sexual subjection. This Image and Text piece intersperses images from the exhibition with handout texts written by curator Paul B. Preciado (against a grey background), as well as an interview between special section co-editor Paula Gardner and the artist that brings the extraordinary exhibition into further conversation with feminist technoscience scholarship.

Authors: Nova Muhammad Andi , Putra Lalu Giat Juangsa , Emzain Zakki Fuadi
Published: October 2021

A starter generator (DC generator) is a DC machine that acts as a motor when starting the engine and will become a DC generator when it reaches a certain speed. The DC Starter Generator will function as a starter mode when the speed is <45% NH and will become a DC generator mode when the speed is >61.5%. There are several types of starter generators on ATR aircraft: 8260-121, 8260-123, and 8260-124. The uses and functions of the three types are the same, but the maintenance schedule intervals are different. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the planned maintenance intervals (brush change, bearing change, and overhaul) and the causes of differences in maintenance intervals for the starter generator. The type of research used is comparative research, where this research compares several parameters related to the planned maintenance of the Starter Generator, which will be operated within 10,000 FH. The results of the treatment intervals obtained are that types 8260-121 and 8260-123 each will require 16 times maintenance, while types 8260-124 only need 8 times maintenance. The difference in the number of treatments being less in the 8260-124 type is due to the modification of the brush. In addition, the type 8260-124 has also used a new technology commutator. Therefore, this type is superior to the other two because it can save operational aircraft costs.

Authors: Rinaldi Aldi , Kristiyana Samuel , Handajadi Wiwik
Published: October 2021

Repeater strongly supports the use of radio communication equipment for communication. The location of the repeater is usually at a high altitude so that the repeater's radio wave beam is not blocked by anything. The repeater arrangement is done by going directly to the repeater location so it is very inefficient from the time and accommodation factor. Therefore, a study was conducted to control the radio repeater settings remotely in order to reduce the accommodation of repeater control by visiting the radio repeater location. Control of radio repeater settings uses DTMF (Dual Tone Multi-Frequency) technology which sends DTMF signals and then converts them to binary data to be processed into data that is used for repeater control such as turning on and off the radio, setting high and low power, and adjusting channels on the repeater. the radio repeater. This system is also equipped with sending notifications in the form of SMS of the repeater operational conditions or settings. The research resulted in a remote control system based on DTMF technology equipped with a GSM/GPRS SIM800L module which is used to connect a smartphone to the system and send repeater operational notifications after controlling the repeater setting function. By using Telkomsel provider, the resulting delay when sending orders is 0.5 seconds and the delay in receiving SMS notifications is 12.96 seconds. Meanwhile, using Indosat provider, the resulting delay when sending commands is 0.43 seconds and the delay in receiving SMS notifications is 10.57 seconds.

The growth of air transportation and technological developments is getting faster every year. This causes airport services to exceed the ability to provide facilities to meet growth adequately. In this case, it cannot be denied that there are always undesirable things that happen unexpectedly such as airplane accidents which are not only always in the air when flying, there are also many cases of plane accidents at the ground whether it's at the landing or parking process. Therefore, a Visual Docking Guidance System (VDGS) tool was designed using the TF Mini LiDAR sensor and programmed for the aircraft parking system at the airport to identify and guide pilots to find the right position when parking. This tool is able to give guidance information on the aircraft position.  A <<<< sign that is, the plane must move to the left, the >>>> sign, the plane must move to the right and the // \\ sign as an indicator the aircraft is in the middle position of parking stand. The results showed that the Visual Docking Guidance System (VDGS) using the LiDAR sensor with a distance specification of 10m is a fairly good level of accuracy and the error obtained from testing the distance measurement tool and actual distance has an error of 0-0,7368% with an average error of 0.0972%.

Published: October 2021

El siguiente texto propone una explicación sobre el campo conceptual de la Formación, (Bildung) y su configuración, en su versión formulada a partir de La Modernidad. Dicho concepto filosófico, cultural y educativo encuentra entre sus motivos clave, la parcial oposición al movimiento de la Ilustración Alemana y a la total confianza en la Razón como la única facultad humana capaz de lograr el conocimiento de la realidad y como procedimiento esencial para enfrentar las dificultades y necesidades de la vida humana. Johann Gottfried Herder jugó un papel de primerísima importancia en la articulación conceptual de la Formación, (Bildung), como un fenómeno de autocultivo en las situaciones históricas, culturales y prácticas de la vida de las personas. Este ensayo revisa el papel que algunos de los acontecimientos históricos, culturales, educativos y políticos, así como el que jugaron diversos intelectuales importantes de la época, para propiciar u oponerse a esta manera novedosa de concebir la autoconformación de los individuos, de modo paralelo o suplementario a los procedimientos tradicionales de socialización o educación.

The objectives of the study were to discuss the prevalence of aliteracy and examine the importance of reading among the high school students as well as describe the remedial impact of bibliotherapy in combating aliteracy among the high school students. All the 18 participants who identified as aliterates were exposed to Focus Group Discussion (FGD) which involved bibliotherapy. Content analysis was employed to analyse the responses of the participants to self-designed questions after the bibliotherapy sessions. The participants affirmed that exposure to bibliotherapy sessions helped in reducing aliteracy irrespective of their gender and that they needed the support of their parents to sustain an appropriate attitude to reading.  Therefore, school librarians with the knowledge of bibliotherapy could be of help in reducing aliteracy among the high school students.
Commonwealth Caribbean Disability Access Policies: Access to Educational Institutions and Libraries
Authors: Stewart Paulette , Dean Mark-Jeffery
Published: October 2021

Disability Acts are aimed at providing disabled students with both physical and intellectual access to education. The research takes into account UNESCO’s mission and Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948) that education as a fundamental human right lies at the heart of equal access. The document analysis approach was used to select six Caribbean countries’ disability Acts to examine the kind of access indicated for educational institutions and libraries. The roles of the stakeholders who are expected to implement the Acts were also examined. Additionally, document analysis was used to determine if what was seen in these Acts were actually being implemented. The disability Acts selected were those from a Commonwealth Caribbean country that developed national policies or acts on disability and that the Acts had specific articles on access to education for disabled persons. It was discovered that the clauses with regards to access and stakeholders’ role in implementing the Acts were very limited. There is also a significant gap between what is written in the Acts and what is actually taking place. One recommendation that was suggested was that each country treat their Act as a priority as equal access is a human right as emphasized by UNESCO.

Published: October 2021

The Melala is a tradition of the Sumbawa people who use coconut milk to obtain Sumbawa oil for traditional medicine. Coconut milk is a colloidal system of stable oil in water (O/W) microemulsion. Within a particular time, the emulsion will split to produce oil (VCO), protein, and water due to the colloid equilibrium on the stability of the coconut milk emulsion. The purpose of this study was to compare the microemulsion stability of the coconut milk colloid system. The VCO was isolated by heating, enzymatically, acidifying, and adding whiting methods for comparison. The physical stability of the O/W microemulsion was measured by the volume of VCO produced from various isolation methods in simple laboratory experiments. The results showed that the physical stability of the O/W microemulsion on VCO isolation by enzymatic method using papain enzyme was the least.

The Concept of Criminal Law for Personnel of Narcotics Abuse
Authors: Artwitadibrata Dhian , Khisni Akhmad
Published: October 2021

The purpose of this paper is to review and analyze the juridical review by the prosecutor in criminal procedural law. In this paper the writer uses the normative juridical method. In the conclusion of the discussion that in handling narcotics cases, especially offenders who are more emphasized as victims or addicts, judges in Indonesia can be said to rarely make legal breakthroughs that emphasize social values and humanity that live in society. Judges in Indonesia only see the criminal side in the Act regardless of the negative effects of the decision, the result is that imprisonment is only seen as providing a deterrent effect to the perpetrator of a criminal act. According to the Narcotics Law, victims of narcotics users are sentenced to imprisonment because drug users are classified as criminal offenders. This contradicts the legal theory of victimology. Several countries have proven that decriminalization policies have an effect on reducing narcotics abuse. The optimum model of punishment for victims of narcotics users is a process outside the legal process, in which all victims of narcotics users report themselves to be rehabilitated. Meanwhile, for those who did not report themselves, the police and / or BNN made arrests and were immediately escorted and handed over to the rehabilitation.

The objectives of this research are: to analyze prosecutors related to prosecutors 'demands in enforcing the narcotics crime law. To analyze the obstacles and solutions faced in making prosecutors' demands in enforcing the narcotics crime law.The method used by researchers isjuridical sociological approach to law and the specification in this research is including analytical descriptive. Based on the results of the research that the role of the prosecutor related to prosecutors' demands in enforcing the narcotics crime law has been fulfilled. The elements of a criminal act violating Article 127 paragraph (1) letter a of Act No. 35 of 2009 concerning Narcotics and it was proven to be against the law because the defendant had the intention to use methamphetamine himself or his own interests, while drugs can only be used for the benefit of developing science and technology. The obstacle is that witnesses who are majority members of the police, when called to be witnesses at trial, often do not attend the trial because they are busy with their superiors, which makes the prosecution process take a long time. The modus operandi in narcotics convictions is because the perpetrators work very well. To overcome the obstacles prosecutors carry out an activity, one of which is holding knowledge sharing meetings between law enforcers and related agencies, to gain unity in perceptions in handling Narcotics crime cases. Then carry out management improvements, so as to minimize the opportunity for narcotics crime to occur. Starting from the practice of handling narcotics crime, the first origin of narcotics crime is from one of the weaknesses of management.

Juridical Analysis Related To Confidentiality Of Notary Liability
Authors: Djunaedi D Djunaedi
Published: October 2021

Notary protection related to confidentiality, especially in the law enforcement process, has not been able to materialize effectively. This is because there is no real protection system for notaries who reveal the confidentiality of their rights in the law enforcement process. This writing uses an empirical juridical method. As for the results of existing research, it can be found that the fact that the limitations of a notary in maintaining the confidentiality of a notary's duties based on the Notary's Position Law are that notaries must keep secrets related to their position. The notary is obliged to keep the contents of the act secret, even the notary is obliged to keep all information from the preparation of the deed to the completion of the drawing up of a deed and if he is made a witness in a case, can exercise his right to resign as a witness. However, it often happens that in a law enforcement process, a notary who is asked to assist in proof by disclosing the confidentiality of a deed that he has made can be sued and threatened by legal sanctions both in civil terms, namely acts against the law or for criminal reasons. Therefore, it is necessary to do more real legal protection for notaries who disclose the confidentiality of the deeds they have made for the sake of law enforcement.

Italy’s Reception System for Asylum Seekers and Refugees
A System with Many Shadows and Little Light
Authors: Avallone Gennaro
Published: October 2021

Since 2011 the increasing arrivals of asylum seekers forced the Italian State to organise a wider and more widespread reception system for refugees and asylum seekers. This paper aims to highlight some of the shadows and few lights that characterize this system, showing its social effects on the population hosted. The analysis proposed is based on the study of official documents, laws and statistics produced by Italian state, interviews with some migrants that lived in reception centres and the participation of the author in the campaign ‘LasciateCIEntrare (Let us in)’ as an activist. After the analysis, some suggestions are proposed about possible policies able to overcome this reception system, also through a radical change in the Italian housing policy oriented to guarantee housing access as a universal social right.

Osteoporosis merupakan salah satu penyakit degeneratif yang banyak terjadi pada perempuan lansia. Terdapat beberapa faktor risiko diantaranya adalah usia dan indeks massa tubuh. Berat badan berlebih pada lansia dapat mempengaruhi kekuatan tulang yang mungkin memberikan efek protektif, sehingga penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara kelebihan berat badan (overweight dan obesitas) dengan kekuatan tulang perempuan lansia. Penelitian ini merupakan observasional analitik dengan desain potong lintang dan pendekatan korelasi. Dengan teknik acak sederhana, sejumlah 104 perempuan lansia dihitung indeks massa tubuh menggunakan timbangan dan staturameter serta diukur kekuatan tulangnya menggunakan BMD (Bone Mineral Densitometry) jinjing sebagai deteksi dini osteoporosis, yang dilakukan di Rumah Sakit Umum Al-Fauzan, Kota Jakarta Timur, pada bulan Oktober 2019. Hasil penelitian didapatkan subjek overweight sebanyak 77 orang (74%) dan obesitas 27 orang (26%). Dari subjek overweight terdapat 68 orang (88,3%) menderita osteoporosis, dan 9 orang (11,7%) menderita osteopenia. Dari subjek obesitas 22 orang (81,5%) menderita osteoporosis dan 5 orang (18,5%) menderita osteopenia. Berdasarkan uji Chi-Square dari kedua varibel, dapat disimpulkan bahwa penelitian ini tidak menunjukkan hubungan yang bermakna antara kelebihan berat badan dengan kekuatan tulang perempuan lansia, p= 0.512 (derajat kemaknaan < 0.05). Kelebihan berat badan seperti overweight ataupun obesitas mungkin tidak dianggap sebagai faktor pelindung terhadap osteoporosis pada perempuan lanjut usia.

A promising direction in agriculture is the use of metal nanoparticles as nanofertilizers, which can increase the yield of agricultural crops and, at the same time, minimize the frequency of fertilization due to the long-term release of nutrients. One of the environmentally safest and cheapest methods of synthesizing metal nanoparticles is biosynthesis using plant extracts. During the redox reaction, proteins, carbohydrates, organic acids, phenols and other metabolites are able to transfer electrons to metal cations, restoring their charge to zero on the nanometer scale. This article, based on publications on the issue under study by authors from the United States of America, Europe and the Middle East, China and India, describes the biosynthesis of nanoparticles of zinc oxide, copper and copper oxide, iron and iron oxide, as well as manganese and manganese oxide using the formation of plant extracts, and data on the use of these metals and their oxides as nanofertilizers and preparations for plant growing are presented. It has been shown that the use of metal nanoparticles and their oxides as fertilizers is more effective than conventional compounds used as fertilizers. This is probably due to the fact that it is easier for nanoparticles to penetrate through the plant membrane, as well as to pass into a form accessible to plants in comparison with conventional analogs. The positive effect of the influence of nanoparticles on plants is expressed in the elongation of the roots and shoots of model plants and an increase in the biomass of seedlings. In addition, the amount of chlorophyll in the leaves increases, and some biochemical processes also change, for example, the amount of antioxidant enzymes increases, which makes it possible to increase the stress resistance of plants.

In the conditions of the Kirov region, 375 samples of soft spring wheat of various ecological and geographical origin (from 30 countries) of the Federal Research Centre N. I. Vavilov All-Russian Institute of Plant Genetic Resources (VIR) collection were studied. The assessment of the source material by yield, duration of the growing season, plant height, lodging resistance, productivity of the ear and plant, 1000-grain mass is presented in the form of a 9-point system of the severity of the trait for three years of field study. As sources for breeding, varieties that combine high yield (5.0...9.0 points) with a high level of economically valuable traits (7.0...9.0 points) were identified. The maximum average point (9.0) for yield capacity was noted by the variety Karabalykskaya 91 (Kazakhstan). The optimal height (53.9...74.0 cm) and lodging resistance were noted in the varieties: Estivum 155 (Russia), Kvorum (Ukraine), Epos, Ethos, Nandu, Schenk and KVS Akvilon (Germany), AC Phil and PT-741 (Canada), Hybrid (Mexico), Leguan (Czech), PS-133 (China) and SSL 25-2 (USA). Early maturation was distinguished in the domestic varieties Skala and Iren (80...87 days). The samples Line 3691h, Izida, FPCh-Ppd-m, Gerakl, Sibirskaya 16 (Russia), Kvorum (Ukraine), Attis and Nandu (Germany), Musket (England) were distinguished by the length (7.3...8.8 cm) and the number of grain of the main ear (32.1...39.9 pcs.). The varieties Voronezhskaya 16, Gerakl, Saratovskaya 72, Saratovskaya 73, Sibirskaya 16, Serebristaya, FPCh-Ppd-m and Ekada 6 (Russia), Anshlag and Kvorum (Ukraine), AC Gabrieland Hoffman (Canada), Attis and Nandu (Germany) were distinguished by a high grain weight per ear (1.28...1.58 g). The varieties Zakamskaya (Russia), Rassvet (Belarus), AC Cadillac (Canada) and PS-95 (China) are recommended as sources of high protein content. It is shown that the wheat yield in the region is closely related to the plant height (r = 0.67), the ear and plant productivity elements (r = 0.24...0.41), the protein content (r = -0.49) and does not depend on the 1000-grain mass (r = 0.04). Sixteen samples were identified with complex resistance to dominating fungal diseases. Samples Altajskaya 110, Kinelskaya 61, Line 2, Lutescens 30 and Estivum V313 (Russia) combined high yield with aluminum resistance. Varieties Altajskaya 100, Baganskaya 95, Line 3691h, Novosibirskaya 20 and Estivum 155 (Russia), Klein Vencedor (Argentina) and NOS Norko (Germany) were characterized by high yield and drought resistance. Based on the obtained results, a bank of sources of economically valuable traits was created, which allows to involve genotypes adapted to the conditions of the region in the breeding process.

Published: October 2021

The article presents the results of breeding work for the creation of new high-yielding varieties of bitter-aromatic hops with a high content of alpha-acids carried out in 2004-2020 in the Chuvash Republic on gray forest soils. The work was done by individual clonal selection of the best hop plants from the collection nursery. Seven high-yielding breeding numbers with a high alpha-acid content were selected from the collection nursery. After passing through all the stages of study in each of the appropriate nurseries from seven numbers, two clones were selected to create new varieties. Data were obtained on the parameters of the initial clonal breeding material, depending on weather conditions and the age of plantings. The selected clones (1-17 bitter-aromatic type and 6-26 bitter type) correspond to the specified indicators: collection of raw hops is not less than 4.0 kg from a bush, the duration of the growing period is 100-120 days, the content of alpha acids is not less than 5.0 %. Documentation on clone 1-17 was sent to the State Variety Commission for registration of a new variety Salampi. The variety is characterized by stable performance and quality indicators. The productivity of the variety is 30.0 c/ha (4.0 kg/bush) with a content of alphaacids of 9.3 %. The Podvyazny standard variety has 26.4 c/ha (3.5 kg/bush), the content of alpha-acids is 8.8 %. Testing of clone 6-26 will be continued to obtain complete and objective data.
