Having their Say: Authority, Voice, and Satisfaction with Democracy
Authors: Merkley Eric , Cutler Fred , Quirk Paul J. , Nyblade Benjamin
Published: July 2018

As studies using macro-level evidence have shown, citizens are more satisfied with democracy when they feel that their instrumental preferences are represented in government, and this feeling is more likely in non-majoritarian institutional contexts. Scholars have given less attention to whether such institutions also increase satisfaction by providing more inclusive political discourse. Citizens may value having their voice represented in politics, regardless of the resulting authority. This paper presents the first micro-level evidence of this mechanism by having subjects experience a simulated election campaign that manipulates both the political discourse and the outcome independently. We find that subjects were less satisfied with democracy when their party lost the election; but this effect disappeared when the campaign discourse had featured thorough discussion of an issue they felt was important. The findings suggest that institutions and party systems that provide more diverse voices may soften the blow of losing elections.

Interview Expectancies: Awareness of potential biases influences behaviour in interviewees
Authors: Adams-Quackenbush Nicole M , Horselenberg Robert , Hubert Josephine , Vrij Aldert , van Koppen Peter
Published: July 2018

Expectancy effects are known to influence behaviour so that what is expected appears to be true. In the present study, expectancy was induced using (fabricated) information about honesty and specific group membership. We tested Targets in a non-accusatory interview environment using neutral and information-gathering type questions. We hypothesized that persons exposed to the negative information (the expectancy) would demonstrate behaviour consistent with increased cognitive load, and we found evidence to support this prediction. Due to the investigative nature of the information gathering questions, we also expected that Targets exposed to the expectancy would exhibit more of these behaviours in the investigative portion of the interview. We found some behaviour to support this prediction (i.e., shorter responses and increased speech disturbances); however, indicators of performance altering load were not observed during this phase of the interview. These findings support the hypothesis that expectancy effects can noticeably alter interviewee behaviour.
K-Gram As A Determinant Of Plagiarism Level in Rabin-Karp Algorithm
Authors: Siahaan Andysah Putera Utama , Mesran Mesran , Rahim Robbi , Siregar Dodi
Published: July 2018

Rabin-Karp is one of the algorithms used to detect the similarity levels of two strings. In this case, the string can be either a short sentence or a document containing complex words. In this algorithm, the plagiarism level determination is based on the same hash value on both documents examined. Each word will form K-Gram of a certain length. The K-Gram will then be converted into a hash value. Each hash value in the source document will be compared to the hash value in the target document. The same number of hashes is the level of plagiarism created. The length of K- Gram is the determinant of the plagiarism level. By determining the proper length of K-Gram, it produces the accurate result. The results will vary for each K-Gram value.
Language Learning and Metacognition: An Intervention to Improve Second Language Classrooms
Authors: Knoph Rebecca , Buchanan Erin Michelle
Published: July 2018

In the USA, the trend of increase in foreign language enrollments at the college level has suddenly begun to decline since 2009, despite the notion that learning multiple languages is becoming essential for effectively communicating with others from diverse native language backgrounds. This new decline may be due in part to inefficient and outdated foreign language courses. The current study examined the effect of how we assess our current knowledge and learning techniques (metacognition) on educational outcomes in hopes to improve the effectiveness of the university classrooms. College students were exposed to new metacognitive strategies that could benefit their language learning throughout the fall 2016 semester. Specifically, students were presented with new information every other week to improve their vocabulary building, listening skills, and writing skills. Hierarchical multiple linear regression provided evidence of a potential way to measure and promote metacognitive strategies that could be useful to language learners.
Personality factors, ideology, and sensitivity to change
Authors: Delmonico Jahnavi R. , Buchanan Erin Michelle
Published: July 2018

This study examined the potential for a predictive relationship between political conservatism and change detection. Research on the visual system has revealed a general tendency to overlook changes in a stationary scene when two versions of it are displayed alternately with a masking slide, known as the flicker paradigm. We examined whether political conservatism and various related measures predicted whether and how quickly changes were detected during a flicker paradigm task. Measures of interest were conservatism as measured by the Social and Economic Conservatism scale (Everett, 2013), openness as measured by the short form of the Big Five Inventory (John, Donahue & Kentle, 1991), authoritarianism as measured by the Right-Wing Authoritarianism scale (Altemeyer, 2006), political party, and a single bipolar conservatism scale. Despite predictions that greater conservatism and authoritarianism would shorten response latencies, authoritarianism appeared to lengthen the time it took to identify a change, while social conservatism shortened it. Openness and other forms of conservatism did not demonstrate significant predictive relationships. Implications of this pattern are discussed.

This text introduces a theme discussion about the initiation into teaching Science and Biology, regarding the Science PIBID subproject and to the indications from teaching constitution through narratives of formation that is themed by the bias of the research in the formation and teaching, being this a clipping of a master's thesis. It also researches an understanding through a cultural/historical perspective and critical reflexions, the teaching initiation dimensions that were registered into 13 logbooks (DB or Diários de Bordo) manufactured by 13 scholarship students from the PIBID/Science subproject, including the author from this dissertation, four supervisors and the teacher trainer from the subproject, bringing a total involvement of 18 research subjects. The narratives were analyzed through with the claim of identifying reflexive shared writings (ERC; Escrita Reflexiva Compartilhada) in the formative context that were experimented by the PIBID/Science, which was also organized according to the action research (IA; Investigação-Ação) with a critical and emancipatory approach. The methodological organization based in a textual-discursive analysis (ATD) from the narratives in the logbooks has enabled the diagnosis from the descriptive-interpretative approach, permitting the perception from the three subjects that had run through the formative process: education and teaching trial period, Science textbooks, a research on teaching Science and on introductory teaching system, the latter being addressed with emphasis in this article. From the narratives that had originated the subjects, it was possible to observe that a formative process that has been transformed by readings and discussions taken from the education scholars, whose undergraduate students bring forward from descriptive writings with a day-to-day knowledge to evaluative writing and with scientific knowledge. Consequently, we find evidence of constitutive interactions between the subjects of research and action that demonstrate a process permeated by knowledge (theoretical and practical, daily and scientific) enmeshed in the logbooks ERCs collaborative.

Published: July 2018

Indonesia is an archipelagic country which makes many areas doesn’t have qualified water as drinking water. As concrete construction building in the region has possibly minimum or non-existent amount of fresh water, the using of sea water in mixing concrete and curing concrete is unavoidable. The demand of water is getting more and more increasing in both the improvement of infrastructure development and the life need. In the concrete industry, several billion tons of water is used as water mixing, curing and cleaning every year. Therefore the use of sea water is not allowed. In fact, we know that seawater is one of the abundant natural resources. Due to this problem, the research on the use of sea water is very important owing to the saving of freshwater is seriously needed. This study uses sea water by combining effective and efficient concrete technology of Self Compacting Concrete (SCC). This paper is a part of ongoing research studying about microstructure characteristics and the strength of SCC using sea water. It discusses about the compressive strength, absorption and porosity as microstructure characteristics of SCC until the age of 28 days. The results are: (1) the seawater used as mixing water did not affect the development of the compressive strength of concrete, (2) the difference compressive strength of SCC-SS with SCC-FF at an early age is very high occurred at ages 1 and 3 days and (3) The higher the compressive strength value is, the smaller the absorption and porosity is in concrete.

Authors: Medel-Ramírez Carlos
Published: July 2018

This paper addresses the study of the ethics of responsibility in the legislative function of the Chamber of Deputies of the H. Congress of the Union, from the perspective of evaluating the work of federal deputies, and seeks to answer the following question: Is the work of the Federal Deputies in the Chamber of Deputies efficient? The purpose is how to measure and evaluate the performance in the legislative function of the Federal Deputies? and with that, to approach to identify if is the work performed by these public representatives efficient and ethical? The work is integrated in three parts. The first is the concept of the ethics of responsibility and the legislative function. In the second section, the proposal of an indicator to measure legislative efficiency is presented and the case of the federal deputies of the LXI Legislature representing the State of Veracruz of Ignacio de la Llave is analyzed. Finally, the third part presents a proposal for citizen action based on information on legislative efficiency and the need to demand compliance with ethical responsibility in the legislative function. As important conclusions of the evaluation of the legislative efficiency of the federal deputies of the LXI Legislature, it shows at least two important results: i) The legislative effectiveness index (IEL) shows very low levels, both at the plenary level of the Chamber of Deputies, as at the level of the study group of federal deputies representing the State of Veracruz. ii) In both cases, they show a very high legislative lag index. An alternative is the citizen's demand for ethical compliance with responsibility in the legislative function when knowing the evaluation of results, which serves as a reference to identify scenarios of political choice based on results.

Pemikiran Hasybi Ash-Shiddiqie dalam Hukum Islam
Authors: Murtadha Rahmah , Mutawali Muhammad
Published: July 2018

Di era globalisasi ini, hukum Islam sering dipersepsikan dua hal yang sangat berbeda dan bahkan dikatakan saling bertentangan. Dalam satu sudut pandang, hukum Islam merupakan sesuatu yang tidak akan mungkin mengalami perubahan, karena berdasarkan wahyu Allah yang bersifat qadim, setiap yang qadim, bersifat statis tidak berubah. Untuk itu diperlukan usaha pengembangan hukum Islam sehingga mampu menjawab perkembangan zaman. Salah satu tokoh yang mengembangkan pemikiran tentang hukum Islam adalah Hasybi ash-Shiddieqy merupakan salah seorang ulama yang selalu menyelaraskan hukum-hukum fiqh dengan tuntutan perkembangan zaman, khususnya di Indonesia. Dalam pada itu, ia juga berusaha merumuskan pemahaman (fiqh) baru terhadap hukum-hukum fiqh yang diwariskan oleh mujtahid di masa lalu. Tampaknya Hasybi melakukan hal seperti itu terutama karena perubahan zaman, dan menurut Hasybi, hukum-hukum fiqh warisan masa lalu itu banyak yang tidak sesuai dengan budaya masyarakat Indonesia. Hasybi dalam pembaharuan pemikiran hukum Islam mempunyai obsesi untuk mengantisipasi problema kemasyarakatan akibat perkembangan zaman, ilmu pengetahuan dan IPTEK menurut disiplin ilmu fiqh, terutama di Indonesia. Kesimpulan fiqh Hasybi yang ditarik berdasarkan metode istimbath yang mapan, dengan latar belakang sosial kemasyarakatan masa kini telah memberikan solusi beberapa problema fiqh. Solusi tersebut dapat berbentuk pendapatnya sendiri, dan juga pendapat mazhab yang ada.

Changes in crop canopy architecture on the incidence of major foliar diseases of betelvine (Piper betle L.)
Authors: Horticulture The Journal of Applied
Published: July 2018

Betel vine (Piper betle L.) is a perennial dioecious creeper-belonging to the family Piperaceae usually grown under artificially erected structural known as baroj that provides high moist and humid conditions favouring several diseases that in turn are major deterrents to good harvest. Betelvine suffers from many root and aerial diseases of which leaf rot caused by Phytophthora parasitica (Dastur) and leaf spot caused by Colletotrichum capsici Syd. (Butler and Bisby) are most important and are included in these studies for assessment. The extent of losses may vary from 20-40% for leaf rot and 10-20% for leaf spot, leading to almost total crop failure (Dasgupta and Sen, 1999). As the betel leaf is directly chewed immediately after harvest, it is not feasible to apply any pesticides that may cause toxic hazards to human being. An experiment was conducted for two consecutive years (2013 and 2014) to study the effect of different crop canopy by maintaining three different plant to plant spacing (viz. 11.1 cm. 9.53 cm. and 8.3 cm.) on leaf yield, disease incidence and keeping quality (days to 50% rotting) of betelvine. With the above plant to plant spacing and standard row to row spacing (60cm), the plant population was maintained as 1.50,1.75 and 2.00 lakh ha’1. The results revealed that when crop canopy was increased by reducing the plant to plant spacing from 11.1 cm to 8.3 cm there were significant increases in both the diseases under investigation (rot disease 19.76% to 22.30%; leafspot disease 22.68% to 25.42%). Significant increase in yield (26.29 to 33.63 lakh ha’‘year*1), decrease in fresh weight of 100 leaves (460.85g to 432.35g) and decrease in keeping quality of leaves (13.14 days to 10.28 days) were recorded when crop canopy was increased by reduction in plant to plant spacing from 11.1 cm to 8.3 cm. From these results it can be concluded that shifts in microclimate resulting from increase in canopy by reducing the plant spacing aggravated the spread and infection of disease.

Histone modifications in Rett syndrome lymphocytes: a preliminary evaluation
Authors: Jarrar Mohammed H
Published: July 2018

Most cases of Rett syndrome (RTT) are associated with mutations in the coding region of the transcriptional regulator MeCP2. This geneappears to repress gene expression through chromatin conformational changes secondary to histone modifications, mainly histonedeacetylation of core histones H3 and H4. There is limited and contradictory information about histone modifications in RTT tissues. Thepresent study intended to provide a preliminary characterization of histone acetylation (AcH3, AcH4) and methylation (MeH3) in RTT, withemphasis on non-selected peripheral cells and molecular-neurologic correlations. We compared 17 females with RTT, 11 of them withMeCP2 mutations, with 10 gender-matched controls in terms of lymphocyte lysate immunoblotting-based levels. We found thatimmunoreactivities for MeCP2 and AcH3/AcH4 are variable in both control and RTT subjects. Despite this variability, RTT subjects withnonsense mutations showed the expected reduction in C-terminal MeCP2 immunoreactivity. Regardless of MeCP2 levels, both subjects with(RTTPos) and without (RTTNeg) mutations had decreased levels of AcH3. The latter reductions were mainly driven by decreases in levels ofH3 acetylated at lysine residue 14 (AcH3K14) and independent of parallel, but milder, decreases in immunoreactivity for MeH3 lysineresidues (MeH3K4/MeH3K9). Within our study sample, reductions in AcH3 were correlated with severity of head growth deceleration in theRTTPos group. This contrasted with the lack of significant association between location of MeCP2 mutation and severity of the RTTneurologic phenotype. We concluded that there were distinctive profiles of histone acetylation/methylation in RTT peripheral cells, whichreflect pathogenetic mechanisms common to subjects with clinical features of this disorder, regardless of mutation status, and that thesepatterns may be relevant to neurologic dysfunction in RTT.

Fixed or Random?

Published: July 2018

Carlsson, Schimmack, Williams, and Bürkner criticize our analysis (Scheibehenne, Jamil, & Wagenmakers, 2016) because it collapses data across different studies. In addition, CSWB apply a random-effect model and argue that allegedly minor changes in the parameter priors render the evidence inconclusive. Here we address both issues.
Transparency, Reproducibility, and the Credibility of Economics Research
Authors: Christensen Garret , Miguel Edward
Published: July 2018

There is growing interest in enhancing research transparency and reproducibility in economics and other scientific fields. We survey existing work on these topics within economics, and discuss the evidence suggesting that publication bias, inability to replicate, and specification searching remain widespread in the discipline. We next discuss recent progress in this area, including through improved research design, study registration and pre-analysis plans, disclosure standards, and open sharing of data and materials, drawing on experiences in both economics and other social sciences. We discuss areas where consensus is emerging on new practices, as well as approaches that remain controversial, and speculate about the most effective ways to make economics research more credible in the future.
A Bayesian Model-Averaged Meta-Analysis of the Power Pose Effect with Informed and Default Priors: The Case of Felt Power

Published: July 2018

Carney, Cuddy, and Yap (2010) found that --compared to participants who adopted constrictive body postures-- participants who adopted expansive body postures reported feeling more powerful, showed an increase in testosterone and a decrease in cortisol, and displayed anincreased tolerance for risk. However, these power pose effects have recently come under considerable scrutiny. Here we present a Bayesian meta-analysis of six preregistered studies from this special issue, focusing on the effect of power posing on felt power. Our analysisimproves on standard classical meta-analyses in several ways. First and foremost, we considered only preregistered studies, eliminating concerns about publication bias. Second, the Bayesian approach enables us to quantify evidence for both the alternative and the null hypothesis. Third, we use Bayesian model-averaging to account for the uncertainty with respect to the choice for a fixed-effect model or a random-effect model. Fourth, based on a literature review we obtained an empirically informed prior distribution for the between-studyheterogeneity of effect sizes. This empirically informed prior can serve as a default choice not only for the investigation of the power pose effect, but for effects in the field of psychology more generally. For effect size, we considered a default and an informed prior. Our meta-analysis yields very strong evidence for an effect of power posing on felt power. However, when the analysis is restricted to participants unfamiliar with the effect, the meta-analysis yields evidence that is only moderate.
Achieving Statistical Significance with Covariates and without Transparency
Authors: Lenz Gabriel , Sahn Alexander
Published: July 2018

How often do articles depend on suppression effects for their findings? How often do they disclose this fact? By suppression effects, we mean control-variable-induced increases in estimated effect sizes. Researchers generally scrutinize suppression effects as they want reassurance that researchers have a strong explanation for them, especially when the statistical significance of the key finding depends on them. In a re-analysis of observational studies from a leading journal, we find that over 30% of articles depend on suppression effects for statistical significance. Although increases in key effect estimates from including control variables are of course potentially justifiable, none of the articles justify or disclose them. These findings may point to a hole in the review process: journals are accepting articles that depend on suppression effects without readers, reviewers, or editors being made aware.
Slow-slip events in semi-brittle serpentinite fault zones
Authors: Goswami Arjun , Barbot Sylvain
Published: July 2018

Slow-slip events are earthquake-like events only with much lower slip rates. While peak coseismic velocities can reach tens of meters per second, slow-slip is on the order of 1E-7 m/s and may last for days to weeks. Under the rate-and-state model of fault friction, slow-slip is produced only when the asperity size is commensurate with the critical nucleation size, a function of frictional properties. However, it is unlikely that all subduction zones embody the same frictional properties. In addition to friction, plastic flow of antigorite-rich serpentinite may significantly influence the dynamics of fault slip near the mantle wedge corner. Here, we show that the range of frictional parameters that generate slow slip is widened in the presence of a serpentinized layer along the subduction plate interface. We observe increased stability and damping of fast ruptures in a semi-brittle fault zone governed by both brittle and viscoelastic constitutive response. The rate of viscous serpentinite flow, governed by dislocation creep, is enhanced by high ambient temperatures. When effective viscosity is taken to be dynamic, long-term slow slip events spontaneously emerge. Integration of rheology, thermal effects, and other microphysical processes with rate-and-state friction may yield further insight into the phenomenology of slow slip.
Pre-existing normal faults have limited control on the rift geometry of the northern North Sea

Published: July 2018

Many rifts develop in response to multiphase extension with numerical and physical models suggesting that reactivation of first-phase normal faults and rift-related variations in bulk crustal rheology control the evolution and final geometry of subsequent rifts. However, many natural multiphase rifts are deeply buried and thus poorly exposed in the field and poorly imaged in seismic reflection data, making it difficult to test these models. Here we integrate recent 3D seismic reflection and borehole data across the entire East Shetland Basin, northern North Sea, to constrain the long-term, regional development of this multiphase rift. We document the following key stages of basin development: (i) pre-Triassic to earliest Triassic development of multiple sub-basins controlled by widely distributed, NNW- to NE-trending, east- and west-dipping faults; (ii) Triassic activity on a single major, NE-trending, west-dipping fault located near the basins western margin, and formation a large half-graben; and (iii) Jurassic development of a large, E-dipping, N- to NE-trending half-graben near the eastern margin of the basin, which was associated with rift narrowing and strain focusing in the Viking Graben. In contrast to previous studies, which argue for two discrete periods of rifting during the Permian-Triassic and Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous, we find that rifting in the East Shetland Basin was protracted from pre-Triassic to Cretaceous. We find that, during the Jurassic, most pre-Jurassic normal faults were buried and in some cases cross-cut by newly formed faults, with only a few being reactivated. Previously developed faults thus had only a limited control on the evolution and geometry of the later rift. We instead argue that strain migration and rift narrowing was linked to the evolving thermal state of the lithosphere, an interpretation supporting the predictions of lithosphere scale numerical models. Our study indicates that additional regional studies of natural rifts are required to test and refine the predictions of physical and numerical models, more specifically, our study suggests models not explicitly recognising or including thermal or rheological effects might over emphasise the role of discrete pre-existing rift structures such as normal faults.
Late Paleozoic Iberian orocline(s) and the missing shortening in the core of Pangea. Paleomagnetism from the Iberian Range.

Published: July 2018

Supercontinents are usually interpreted to be single and rigid continental plates. How and when Pangea became a rigid supercontinent is disputed, and age estimations vary from ~330 to ~240 Ma. The Gondwana-Laurussia collision formed the Variscan-Alleghanian belt, the most prominent witness of Pangea’s amalgamation. In Iberia, this orogen draws an “S” shape featured by the Cantabrian Orocline and the Central Iberian curve. The curvature of Central Iberia is particularly evident in Galicia-Tras Os Montes and in a change of trend that it draws in the Aragonese Branch of the Iberian Range. Recent research showed that both curvatures are not coeval and that the Central Iberian curve had to form prior to ca. 318 Ma (i.e. not a secondary orocline). We report paleomagnetic and structural results from Paleozoic rocks in the Santa Cruz syncline (Aragonese Branch of the Iberian Range) that indicate two main vertical axis rotations events: 1) a Cenozoic (Alpine) clockwise rotation of >20˚ and 2) a Late Carboniferous counterclockwise rotation of ~70˚. Once the Cenozoic rotation is restored, the change in structural trend that allegedly evidences the outer arc of the Central Iberian curve disappears. Whereas the Cenozoic rotation is incompatible with a Central Iberian curve, the Late Carboniferous rotation is fully compatible with the Cantabrian Orocline, enlarging the area affected by its counterclockwise rotations and the existence of a non-rigid Pangea until, at least, ~295 M.a.
