Authors: Hirt Karla Leontina Hamann , Gelbcke Amauri
Published: March 2020

A busca pela melhoria contínua é um conceito cada vez mais presente no cotidiano das empresas, as perdas no processo não são mais aceitas quando podem ser evitadas. Este projeto de pesquisa foi elaborado tendo como base a necessidade do aperfeiçoamento das atividades desenvolvidas pela empresa, neste caso um curtume catarinense. Para identificar as perdas do processo foi desenvolvido o fluxograma da empresa, além de abordar a metodologia Toyota de produção e o Lean Manufacturing que trata-se de um sistema produtivo que tem como objetivo enxugar suas atividades, entre outras ferramentas da qualidade como o Just in time, Kanban e Takt Time. Por fim apresenta o mapeamento do fluxo de valor, que é decorrente das atividades desempenhadas dentro da empresa que influenciam diretamente no beneficiamento do couro e valor agregado a essas atividades. Este projeto detalha cada um setores por onde o produto passa dentro da empresa, observou-se que as perdas de material são mínimas, mas a perda de valor agregado ao produto até que chegue ao ponto final do processo, que se caracteriza atualmente pela expedição do produto ao cliente, é considerado grande.
Análise dos fatores para implantação do sistema Kanban em uma empresa cerâmica de Rio Negrinho, SC
Authors: Weiss Juliana Aparecida
Published: March 2020

Com o passar do tempo nota-se as dificuldades encontradas pelas empresas em seus processos produtivos, nessa empresa de cerâmica não é diferente. Ela trabalha com o sistema TOTVS – Microsiga, porém sua programação é realizada por uma planilha de Excel. Devido a isso surgiu o interesse pelo estudo sobre uma possível implantação do sistema kanban dentro dessa organização. Será verificado também o sistema Just-in-time (JIT), que é formada por duas premissas básicas: a melhoria contínua, que implica que o JIT é um processo contínuo, e a eliminação de perdas, o que significa minimizar todas as atividades que não agregam valor diretamente ao produto ou serviço ao cliente, onde essas duas premissas precisam do sistema kanban para gerenciar o fornecimento de materiais nos postos de trabalho no momento certo. Tendo isso como base, o objetivo desse trabalho é propor a utilização do sistema kanban como forma de programação da produção. Essa pesquisa foi realizada através da verificação das demandas  e observações dentro da empresa para análise de quais fatores influenciariam para implantação do sistema kanban. Dentre aproximadamente 1.500 itens, 14 foram os que se destacaram e serão usados para o estudo do kanban. Esses 14 itens estão representando 88% das vendas do período analisado (Janeiro a Agosto de 2014). Foi usado um setor piloto para o estudo, o qual foi a embalagem de pedidos. Os resultados dessa pesquisa se mostram satisfatórios, eliminando os desperdícios, ajustando o lead time da empresa e principalmente organizando o método produtivo da empresa.
Custos de produção e expectativas de retorno associados a produção de um hectare de maçã no Planalto Norte Catarinense
Authors: Augustin Bruno , Cruz Clodoaldo Teixeira da
Published: March 2020

O presente artigo analisa os custos e as expectativas de retorno associados ao cultivo da maçã para dois níveis de produção, sendo 12 e 30 toneladas/hectare,considerando um pomar de maçã com idade de 7 anos com ciclo produtivo anual no Planalto Norte Catarinense. A idéia para a elaboração deste artigo surgiu a partir do momento em que se observou os poucos produtores na região com produtividade baixa e sem motivação nesse segmento. A análise quantitativa deu-se a partir do momento em que foram coletados os dados da Epagri publicados pela mesma neste ano de 2014, sendo os acadêmicos instruídos os quais dados utilizar pelo Sr. Gilberto Nepell da Epagri planta Canoinhas. A metodologia utilizada consistiu em utilizar técnicas de análise de investimentos, estimar os fluxos de caixa representativos e gerar um conjunto de indicadores. O conjunto de indicadores financeiros é formado por VPL – Valor Presente Líquido, VPLA – Valor Presente Líquido Anual, IBC – Índice Benefício/Custo e ROIA - Retorno Adicional Decorrente do Investimento, os quais foram calculados através do Excel. Os resultados das produções estudadas são rentáveis, porém observa-se que a estratégia da produção de 30 toneladas com ROIA de 15,69% apresenta maior retorno ao investidor.

Authors: Leite Nildes Raimunda Pitombo , Freitas Alessandra Demite Gonçalves de , Tavares Caroline Aparecida Bueno
Published: March 2020

Este artigo teve como objetivo desenvolver um estudo acerca da eficácia da liderança encontrada no filme ‘Invictus’, dirigido por Clint Eastwood (2009), que retrata Nelson Mandela na presidência da África do Sul no período pós apartheid em 1995 e seu esforço junto ao capitão da equipe sul-africana de rugby, François Pienaar, na promoção de um campeonato histórico. Procurou-se, neste artigo, responder à questão de como os conceitos de liderança podem ser revisitados no processo de ensino-aprendizagem e pesquisa em Administração. Foi realizado um estudo por meio da estratégia de coleta de observação indireta e não-participante, com vistas ao aprofundamento da estratégia de análise fílmica. Os dados extraídos das cenas microanalisadas e registradas em protocolo foram analisados pela estratégia de análise do conteúdo. Os resultados indicam que os conteúdos das falas dos personagens foram consubstanciadores do que se encontra nas literaturas clássica e contemporânea sobre liderança. Ficou claramente apresentado o modo como cada um dos personagens foi capaz de definir os próprios passos para alcançar os objetivos e metas conjuntos em torno das diferentes abordagens da temática – liderança, liderança transformacional, liderança carismática e liderança visionária – foram encontradas nesses personagens, observados como líderes que podem definir a realidade organizacional.

Published: March 2020

O presente ensaio é uma revisão histórica e política que trata, precipuamente, acerca da conquista da mulher no cenário constitucional bem como o constante exercício parlamentar, ao longo do tempo, efetuado pelas representantes feministas, especialmente nos célebres momentos de debates para elaboração do texto constitucional vigente no Brasil. A atuação das mulheres, pois, nas Assembleias Nacionais Constituintes que ocorreram em momentos significativos no Brasil demonstra o efetivo respeito e reconhecimento à voz das mulheres que muito auxiliaram na confecção de textos políticos, e principalmente da Carta Constitucional mais democrática e com maior igualdade de gênero entre ambos os sexos. Ademais, a militância feminista demonstrou que a propositura de uma série de assuntos relevantes à nação brasileira, os quais foram postos em pauta nas Assembleias Nacionais Constituintes cooperaram, e muito, para conquistarem importantes postos nas tradicionais bancadas partidárias, crescendo, desta maneira, inclusive, o próprio interesse das mulheres na defesa das causas políticas até os dias de hoje.

Published: March 2020

O ambiente organizacional tem se tornado cada vez mais dinâmico, volátil e com alta dinamicidade nas transações entre as organizações. Dentro dos temas emergentes estudados na teoria das organizações, estão as organizações em rede e as redes organizacionais. Seus conceitos advindos da antropologia e da sociologia influenciaram e obtiveram crescente difusão e utilização no contexto organizacional, principalmente, a partir dos princípios da teoria dos sistemas e da contingência. Por meio de uma revisão de literatura sobre redes organizacionais e custos de transação, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo explicar a origem das redes organizacionais à luz da teoria dos custos de transação. Concluiu-se que a teoria dos custos de transação pode ser considerada como uma transição entre a economia clássica e as novas configurações de organizações em rede, sendo, portanto, uma possível explicação para a origem das redes organizacionais.

FUENTES DEL DERECHO EN LA CONSTITUCIÓN POLACA DE 1997
Authors: Żurek Jakub
Published: March 2020

De acordo com a teoria do direito, o termo fontes de direito, em um aspecto formal, significa todos os tipos de documentos que contêm normas jurídicas gerais que regulam o comportamento dos sujeitos destinatários das referidas normas e outros que autorizam o funcionamento dos órgãos públicos. Na Polônia, as fontes do direito estão regulamentadas no terceiro capítulo da Constituição. As fontes de direito universalmente vinculantes na República da Polônia são a constituição, as leis, as convenções internacionais ratificadas e os regulamentos. A Constituição polonesa estabelece que as fontes de direito na Polônia são constituídas por dois grupos diferentes, ou seja, pelo direito universalmente vinculativo e pelo direito que vincula apenas os órgãos administrativos subordinados ao órgão que dita essas regras. O presente artigo aborda essas fontes trazendo casos concretos, descrevendo procedimentos e informando dos debates atuais sobre possíveis alterações normativas dessa matéria.
Mapping Solvation Heterogeneity in Live Cells by Hyperspectral Stimulated Raman Scattering Microscopy
Authors: Lang Xiaoqi , Welsher Kevin
Published: March 2020

Water provides a dynamic matrix in which all biochemical processes occur in living organisms. The structure and dynamics of intracellular water constitute the cornerstone for understanding all aspects of cellular function. Fundamentally, direct visualization of subcellular solvation heterogeneity is essential but remains challenging with commonly used NMR methods due to poor spatial resolution. To explore this question, we demonstrate a vibrational-shift imaging approach by combining the spectral-focusing hyperspectral stimulated Raman scattering (hsSRS) technique with an environmentally-sensitive nitrile probe. The sensing ability of a near-infrared nitrile-containing molecule is validated in the solution phase, microscopic droplets and cellular environments. Finally, we quantitatively measure the subcellular solvation variance between the cytoplasm (29.5%, S.E. 1.8%) and the nucleus (57.3%, S.E. 1.0%), which is in good agreement with previous studies. This work sheds light on heterogenous solvation in live systems using coherent Raman microscopy and opens up new avenues to explore environmental variance in complex systems with high spatiotemporal resolution.
External Factors Affecting EFL Self-Concepts of Students in Two Drama Clubs
Authors: Mardiningrum Arifah
Published: March 2020

The study focused on the external factors inside the drama clubs affecting the EFL self-concept. The current study used a Comparative Case Study (CCS) design to compare the EFL self-concepts in two drama clubs through six participants. The study was a qualitative study, and the data were collected through interviews. The interviews were transcribed, coded, and analyzed by presenting the finding per drama club and then comparing between the two.  The external factors affecting the EFL self-concept in Drama Club 1 were comparison to peers’ English skills, people perceived as more competent in English, feedbacks from senior members and lecturer(s), play rehearsals, and on-stage performances. Meanwhile, the external factors in Drama Club 2 were preparation, feedback from peers and/or seniors, play-script, on-stage performances, feedback from a lecturer, and audiences’ identity. Comparatively, the factors found hold some similarities in that significant others, their feedbacks, and the activities prior to and during the play had certain roles in affecting the participants’ self-concepts. Meanwhile, the two clubs differ in the number of specific activities and the attitude that resulted from the presence and absence of a teacher figure
A Contrastive Analysis of the Use of Prepositions in German and Indonesian
Authors: Hasmawati Hasmawati , R. Mantasiah , Yusri Yusri
Published: March 2020

This study aims to describe the implication of contrastive analysis in the mastery of prepositions in German and Indonesian by identifying the similarities and differences in terms of morphology, semantics and syntax. This study employed library research technique to collect data related to the use of prepositions in German and Indonesian. The results of analysis found that there are similarities and differences in using the prepositions in German and Indonesian. Based on the word structure or the morphological aspect, prepositions in German and Indonesian are divided into two: primary/pure/basic prepositions and secondary/derivative prepositions. In German and Indonesian, primary prepositions are single words, which are called prepositions with one case in German (Präpositionen mit festem Kasus). From the semantic point of view, German prepositions are divided into four types: 1) prepositions indicating locative relationship, 2) temporal relationship, 3) modal relationship, and 4) cause-effect relationship. In Indonesian, however, prepositions are divided into several types: 1) prepositions indicating location, 2) movement, 3) agents, 4) tools, 5) comparison, 6) a thing or problem, 8) effects, and 9) prepositions indicating purpose. In general, those prepositions have similar meanings with prepositions in German, but the formations are different because prepositions in German use one of the cases: accusative, dative or genitive
Yawn Based Driver Fatigue Level Prediction
Authors: Kassem Haider , Chowdhury Morshed , Abawajy Jemal , Al-Sudani Ahmed
Published: March 2020

The fatigue-related accident is increasing due to long work hours, medical reasons, and age that decrease response time in a moment of hazard. One of drowsiness and fatigue visual indicators is excessive yawning. In this paper, a non-optical sensor presented as a car dashcam that is used to record driving scenarios and imitates real-life driving situations such as being distracted or talking to a passenger next to the driver. We built a deep CNN model as the classifier to classify each frame as a yawning or non- yawning driver. We can classify the drivers' fatigue into three levels, alert, early fatigue and fatigue based on the judgement of the number of yawns. Alert level means when the driver is not yawning, while, early fatigue is when the driver yawns once in a minute. Fatigued is when the driver yawns more than once in a minute. An overall decision is made by analyzing the source score and the condition of the driver's fatigue state. The robustness of the proposed method was tested under various illumination contexts and a variety of head motion modes. Experiments are conducted using YAWDD dataset that contains 322 subjects to show that our model presents a promising framework to accurately detect drowsiness level in a less complex way.

Published: March 2020

Recommending and providing suitable learning materials to the learners according to their cognitive ability is important for effective learning. Assessing the cognitive load of a learner while studying a learning material can be helpful in assessing his/her intelligence and knowledge adapting abilities. This paper presents a real-time assessment method of the intelligence of students according to their instant learning skills. The proposed system can read the brain waves of students of different age groups at the time of learning and classify their instant learning skills using the cognitive score. Based on this, the learners are suggested suitable learning materials which maintain the learner in an overall state of optimal learning. The main issues concerning this approach are constructing cognitive state estimators from a multimodal array of physiological sensors and assessing initial baseline values, as well as changes in the baseline. These issues are discussed in a data processing block-wise structure. Synchronization of different data streams and feature extraction and formation of a cognitive state metric by classification/clustering of the feature sets are done. The results demonstrate the efficiency of using cognitive score in RTLCS in the identification of instant learning abilities of learners.

This study analyzes the formation factors and major centres and shrines of pilgrimage and religious tourism in the Western region of Ukraine. The article presents structure of the religious space of 8 regions of Western Ukraine in the context of major Christian denominations. According to the latest statistics in the West of Ukraine, among the Christian denominations we can see dominance of believers and communities of the Ukrainian Greek-Catholic Church, the Orthodox Church of Ukraine, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate and the Roman Catholic Church.
The main pilgrimage centres that represent the Christian denominations of the region are characterized by attracting their faithful and at the same time serving as religious tourism centres for a wider range of people. These include, among others: Univ Lavra, Krekhiv and Hoshiv Monasteries, the Marian Spiritual Centre in Zarvanytsia (Greek-Catholic Church); Maniava Skete, St. George Monastery on the Cossack Graves (Orthodox Church of Ukraine); Pochayiv Lavra, Zymne and Mezhyrich Monasteries, Monasteries in Bukovyna and Transcarpathia (Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate). At the same time, the Roman Catholic Church is represented by sanctuaries: Basilica of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Lviv, churches in Stryi, Bilshivtsi, Chortkiv, Letychiv and other settlements. The annual number of visitors to these major centres is between 30 and 100 thousand people a year.
Regarding non-Christian religions, there are important shrines in the region for Hasidic pilgrims in Belz, Medzhybizh and other towns.
At the same time, a number of regional centres are important destinations. There are many temples in Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk, Lutsk, Ternopil, which, given the presence of objects of religious worship and significant architectural appeal, perform both a pilgrimage and a religious-tourist function.
Religious shrines, which are primarily of natural origin, are often an important component of the pilgrimage-tourist movement in the West of Ukraine. These include the appearance of the Virgin Mary, including individual hills or springs, as well as ancient cave monasteries. Numerous pilgrimage and travel agencies actively promote visits of believers and tourists to them.
Development of religious and pilgrimage centres is related to the development of service infrastructure, service complexes and a network of different types of accommodation. It may be recommended to organize more educational and scholarly events of ecumenical nature and meetings of faithful of different denominations in the well-known religious centres of the region.
Key words: pilgrimage, religious tourism, denominations, temple, shrine, pilgrimage centre, infrastructure.

Authors: Pandyak Igor
Published: March 2020

The study focuses on the relevance of categorization in the management of the quality of service of hotel enterprises. The main approaches to categorization of hotel business actors in the world and in Ukraine have been analyzed, attention has been paid to the need to define key concepts in the management of the quality of the placement service, the issues of standards and the current categorization process in Ukraine, the direction of their solution has been substantiated.
The spatial organization of categorized hotel enterprises in Ukraine was analyzed, and the dependence of the share with the rating and structure of the star categories on the tourist attractiveness of the regions was determined. The international and Ukrainian hotel corporations, whose enterprises are all categorized in a high segment, have a significant influence on the categorization.
Among the main issues of categorization in Ukraine are as follows: obsolete, not appropriate current requirements regarding the quality of the service of regulations, complicated procedure of categorization, absence of a legal mechanism of influence on hotel enterprises, which publicly declare a certain category without passing the categorization process, unequal regulatory requirements for the passage of categorization the subjects of the hotel business of different legal form, capacity, historical status of the building, not formed in the majority of investors, top management, hotel business, professional consciousness that needs to be taken globally.

THREE CRITICAL APPROACHES IN LITERARY CRITICISM: AN EXAMPLE ANALYSIS ON MATTHEW ARNOLD’S DOVER BEACH
Authors: Rahayu Anik Cahyaning
Published: March 2020

To approach a work of literature can be done in different ways. Some approaches can be used to analyze a literary work, such as psychological, historical, sociological, etc. To analyze one literary work, more than one approach can be applied. This article is an example of analyzing a poem, Mattew Arnold's Dover Beach from three different critical positions, the formalist, the sociological, and psychoanalytical. The formalist critics view work as a timeless aesthetic object. We may find whatever we wish in the work as long as what we find is in the work itself  The sociological critic views that to understand Arnold’s ‘Dover Beach’, we must know something about the major intellectual social current of Victorian England and how Arnold responded to them. All psychoanalytic critics assume that the development of the psyche in humans is analogous to the development of the physique. ‘Dover Beach’ is richly suggestive of the fundamental psychic dilemma of man in civilization.

Power not only operates through formal channels, law, and state institutions but also operates through a series of discourse to define something or a group as incorrect or bad. This study aims to describe the process of paralleling the construction of the Surabaya Pagi newspaper by using a critical analysis of Theo Van Leeuwen's model. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method to see the formation of an opinion on a newspaper text entitled "Narkoba Jaringan Lesbian: Dua Cewek Lesbian Bratang Gede di Pasok Bandar Dinoyo". The data in this study are news excerpts related to exclusion and inclusion. The data source in this study is the Surabaya Pagi newspaper. Data collection techniques in this research are by reading, understanding, and marking relevant quotations in the newspaper text. Data analysis techniques in this research are by identifying, classifying, analyzing, interpreting, and concluding. The results of this study indicate that lesbians are an easy target to build a bad image in the eyes of the public by forming a discourse that excludes the role of drug dealers (who are actually perpetrators of crime) and explores the role of users (lesbians) with a portion of the coverage that further builds the community's image of the group lesbians as a group that is truly wrong and a source of social problems increasingly corner the group's position in society.
Sensitivity Evaluation of Methods for Estimating Complier Average Causal Mediation Effects to Assumptions
Authors: Park Soojin , Palardy Gregory J.
Published: March 2020

Estimating the effects of randomized experiments and, by extension, their mediating mechanisms, is often complicated by treatment noncompliance. Two estimation methods for causal mediation in the presence of noncompliance have recently been proposed, the instrumental variable method (IV-mediate) and maximum likelihood method (ML-mediate). However, little research has examined their performance when certain assumptions are violated and under varying data conditions. This article addresses that gap in the research and compares the performance of the two methods. The results show that the distributional assumption of the compliance behavior plays an important role in estimation. That is, regardless of the estimation method or whether the other assumptions hold, results are biased if the distributional assumption is not met. We also found that the IV-mediate method is more sensitive to exclusion restriction violations, while the ML-mediate method is more sensitive to monotonicity violations. Moreover, estimates depend in part on compliance rate, sample size, and the availability and impact of control covariates. These findings are used to provide guidance on estimator selection.

Targeting the spatial context of obesity determinants via multiscale geographically weighted regression
Authors: Oshan Taylor M. , Smith Jordan , Fotheringham Alexander Stewart
Published: March 2020

Background: Obesity rates are recognized to be at epidemic levels throughout much of the world, posing significant threats to both the health and financial security of many nations. The causes of obesity can vary but are often complex and multifactorial, and while many contributing factors can be targeted for intervention, an understanding of where these interventions are needed is necessary in order to implement effective policy. This has prompted an interest in incorporating spatial context into the analysis and modeling of obesity determinants, especially through the use of geographically weighted regression (GWR). Method: This paper provides a critical review of previous GWR models of obesogenic processes and then presents a novel application of multiscale (M)GWR using the Phoenix metropolitan area as a case study. Results: Though the MGWR model consumes more degrees of freedom than OLS, it consumes far fewer degrees of freedom than GWR, ultimately resulting in a more nuanced analysis that can incorporate spatial context but does not force every relationship to become local a priori. In addition, MGWR yields a lower AIC and AICc value than GWR and is also less prone to issues of multicollinearity. Consequently, MGWR is able to improve our understanding of the factors that influence obesity rates by providing determinant-specific spatial contexts.Conclusion: The results show that a mix of global and local processes are able to best model obesity rates and that MGWR provides a richer yet more parsimonious quantitative representation of obesity rate determinants compared to both GWR and ordinary least squares.

Published: March 2020

Introduction: Parents shape child emotional competence and mental health via their beliefs about children’s emotions, emotion-related parenting, the emotional climate of the family, and by modelling emotion regulation skills. However, research evidence to-date has been based on small samples with mothers of primary school-aged children. Further research is needed to elucidate the direction and timing of associations for mothers and fathers/partners across different stages of child development. The Child and Parent Emotion Study (CAPES) aims to examine longitudinal associations between parent emotion socialisation, child emotion regulation, and socio-emotional adjustment at four time-points from pregnancy to age 12. CAPES will investigate the moderating role of parent gender, child temperament and gender, and family background. Methods and analysis: CAPES recruited 2,063 current parents from six English-speaking countries of a child 0-9 years and 273 prospective parents (i.e., women/their partners pregnant with their first child) in 2018-2019. Participants will complete a 20-30 minute online survey at four time-points 12 months apart, to be completed in December 2022. Measures include validated parent-report tools assessing parent emotion socialisation (i.e., parent beliefs, the family emotional climate, supportive parenting, and parent emotion regulation) and age-sensitive measures of child outcomes (i.e., emotion regulation and socio-emotional adjustment). Analyses will use mixed effects regression to simultaneously assess associations over three time-point transitions (i.e., T1 to T2; T2 to T3; T3 to T4), with exposure variables lagged to estimate how past factors predict outcomes 12 months later. Ethics and dissemination: Ethics approval was granted by the Deakin University Human Research Ethics Committee and the Deakin University Faculty of Health Human Research Ethics Committee. We will disseminate results through conferences and open access publications. We will invite parent end-users to co-develop our dissemination strategy, and discuss the interpretation of key findings prior to publication.
Predicting fluctuation in narcissistic states: An examination of the g-FLUX scale

Published: March 2020

Studying dynamic patterns among grandiose and vulnerable narcissistic states has become an important area of inquiry. The g-FLUX (Oltmanns & Widiger, 2018) scale is a 9-item self-report measure designed to capture narcissistic dynamics in the absence of intensive longitudinal designs (e.g., ambulatory assessment, ecological momentary assessment). Though this scale has been associated with dispositional measures of narcissism, it has not yet been validated using ambulatory methods that can directly assess fluctuation in narcissistic states. The present study examined whether the g-FLUX scale predicts variability in state grandiosity and vulnerability across two samples: A community sample (N = 320) that was oversampled for low modesty and an independent undergraduate sample (N = 314). Results revealed that the g-FLUX scale predicts momentary variability in grandiosity and vulnerability. Results were stronger in the community sample. The study suggests that researchers should consider using the g-FLUX scale when interested in capturing dynamics within narcissism, especially when intensive longitudinal designs (e.g., ambulatory assessment methods) are not an option.

Published: March 2020

MOBA Games has been the trend of the society nowadays. This has become the best recreational activity of the youth. This trend make the researchers to be focused on its impact to the family interaction.The study location is at Gamao Subdivision, Barangay San Francisco, Panabo City. Eighty-three (83) MOBA Games players had been selected to participate the interviews which was being answered by the survey questionnaires.The survey questionnaires focused on what was the MOBA Games impact and influences to the members of a family. This has been grouped according to the – age range, gender, socio economic status, number of the siblings and playmate.The study shows that family members does not manifest excessive MOBA games usage and does not greatly manifest Family Interaction between members of the family. Also, this shows a significant relationship between the level of MOBA games usage and in the level of family interaction.The study recommended that families should learn how to value and manage time in order to be more productive and effective in building interaction between family members and should build strong connection among its family members. It is highly recommended that family should be effective as to implementing house rules in order to minimize the high level of MOBA games usage among age group 5 to 10 years old.
Inequality Comparisons with Ordinal Data

Non-intersection of appropriately-defined Generalized Lorenz (GL) curves is equivalent to a unanimous ranking of distributions of ordinal data by all Cowell and Flachaire (Economica 2017) indices of inequality and by a new index based on GL curve areas. Comparisons of life satisfaction distributions for six countries reveal a substantial number of unanimous inequality rankings. (Stone Center on Socio-Economic Inequality Working Paper)

The purpose of this paper is to present a theoretical literature review of studies or university identity change under the influence of global competition. The literature review is organized by the three theoretical perspectives - political economy, neo-liberalism and new institutionalism (Chirikov, 2016). The main idea of the literature review is to prove that although studies of rankings proliferate, the institutional approach gives the best insight into the phenomenon. Despite this fact, the institutional approach is underrepresented in the field. Oversight of the influence of global rankings on university identity can be observed.
