Yatırımcı duyarlılığı, davranışsal finans teorisinin temel kavramlarından biridir. Davranışsal finansteorisi, yatırımcıların rasyonel olmadıklarını ve çeşitli psikolojik faktörlerin etkisi altında yatırım kararıverdiklerini ileri sürmektedir. Bu faktörler arasında yatırımcıların finansal varlıkların gelecekteki nakitakışları ve riskine ilişkin olarak eldeki bilgiler ile desteklenmemesine rağmen oluşturdukları inanışlarönemli bir yer tutmaktadır. Bu inanışlar yatırımcı duyarlılığı olarak adlandırılır ve yatırımcıların yatırımkararlarını nasıl verdiklerini ve menkul kıymet taleplerinin nasıl oluştuğunu açıklamaya yardımcı olur.Yatırımcı duyarlılığı aynı zamanda menkul kıymetlerin fiyat ve getiri davranışlarını öngörmeye de katkısağlar.Bu çalışma, Türkiye’de yatırımcı duyarlılığının hisse senedi piyasası üzerindeki etkisini araştırmaktadır.Bu amaçla, yatırımcı duyarlılığını temsilen tüketici güven endeksi (TGE) kullanılmıştır.

Published: June 2023

Nowadays, alcohol additives such as ethanol and isopropanol are used to minimize emissionsresulting from combustion in diesel engines. While these blends contribute to reducing emission values, itis also important to consider their environmental and cost implications. Therefore, this experimental studyfocuses on the emission characteristics and the environmental and cost impact of alcohol additives in dieselfuel. The experiments were conducted at low and medium engine torques (3 Nm and 6 Nm) and variousengine speeds (1000, 1500, 2000, and 2500 rpm). Additionally, three different test fuels were used in theexperiments, including standard diesel fuel, as well as diesel fuel with volumetric additions of 7% ethanol(E7) and 7% isopropanol (IP7) alcohol additives. The emission values of all test fuels were measured, andan analysis of environmental influence and cost was conducted. Upon examining the results, it is evidentthat the addition of alcohol to diesel fuel significantly increased the environmental influence and cost atlow engine speeds, while it led to a decrease at high engine speeds. Furthermore, the increase in engineload contributed to emission reduction due to higher combustion temperatures, thereby contributing to adecrease in both cost and environmental influence.

Conspiracy Theories and Ebola: Lessons Learned Important for Future Pandemics
Authors: Smallman Shawn
Published: June 2023

The public health campaign against Ebola in the Democratic Republic of the Congo faced serious challenges, some due to conspiracy theories and denial. These beliefs were so powerful that they even caused repeated attacks upon health care providers and medical centers. These conspiracy theories were nothing new, as they are a common feature of all frightening epidemics, such as HIV and COVID-19. These narratives also circulated during the 2015 West African Ebola outbreak. Addressing conspiracy theories during an epidemic requires a coordinated campaign involving not only local leaders but also the cooperation of social media organizations.
Nurses in a SNAP: Increasing Self-Confidence for Competent Nursing Practice through a Student Nurse Employment Model
Authors: Burke Brittany
Published: June 2023

Background

Although self-confidence is strongly correlated with safe patient care, there is limited research about self-confidence perceptions among new graduate nurses upon entry into licensed practice. This study evaluated the effect of the Student Nurse Apprenticeship Program’s (SNAP) three-tiered employment model on new graduate registered nurse (RN) self-confidence and the organization’s subsequent return on investment.

Objective

Evaluate the effect of a pre-licensure, student nurse employment model on licensed nurses in three areas: perceived self-confidence related to patient safety, new graduate nurse orientation length, and organizational RN retention.

Method

A quasi-experimental, nonequivalent control group posttest study was conducted at Norton Healthcare (NHC) with SNAP Cohort One. Graduate RNs who completed SNAP and a control group of non-SNAP new graduate RNs took the Health Professional Education in Patient Safety Survey tool prior to starting NHC new graduate nurse orientation. During SNAP application, applicants completed the Human Systems Integration tool which aids in assessment of the relationship between the individual and the role’s responsibilities.

Results

In SNAP Cohort One, statistically significant (p < 0.05) increases in perceived self-confidence related to patient safety were found in SNAP graduates. Organizational retention was captured at 90% from SNAP to NHC RN, a 94% one-year RN retention, and a 96% two-year RN retention. The mean new graduate RN orientation length for SNAP graduates decreased three weeks. Total organizational cost avoidance of $8.5 million was shown in decreased orientation time and first year RN retention.

Conclusions

This study shows that the new graduate RNs completing SNAP had higher perceived self-confidence related to patient safety compared to new graduate RNs who did not complete SNAP. With the success of SNAP Cohort One, in conjunction with the strong return on NHC’s financial investment and creation of a workforce pipeline, NHC continued the program. After five successful cohorts and 696 student nurses, SNAP graduates avoided the organization over $33 million in first year RN turnover costs. SNAP graduate to NHC RN retention remained at 90%, with first year RN retention at 92%, and second year RN retention at 84%. The mean decrease in orientation time for all five cohorts remained between two and three weeks.

There is an alarming increase in industrialization and anthropogenic activities in many parts of the world, which raises concern as to the roles they play in the aquatic ecosystems. The study was conducted to investigate chemical oxygen demand (COD) and metal concentrations as key drivers of the phytoplankton community of selected fish ponds in Osogbo, Nigeria, from February 2021 to July 2021. Water samples were collected monthly and analysed for physicochemical parameters, phytoplankton composition and abundance. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed on linear regression models to assess their prediction of phytoplankton community diversity. Mean water temperature was 27.57±0.14 °C, pH 6.91±0.16, Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) 1.30±0.13 mg/l, Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) 345.1±75.0 mg/l, phosphate-phosphorus 7.518±1.75 mg/l, electrical conductivity 594.9±97.75 µs/cm, DO 2.37±0.29 mg/l and alkalinity 129.0±47.25 mg/l in the investigated ponds. The dominant phytoplankton group was Chlorophyceae (74%), followed by Bacillariophyceae (11%), Cyanobacteria (9%) and Euglenophyceae (6%). Canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) revealed that COD, chromium (Cr) and iron (Fe) were the key parameters controlling the phytoplankton composition of the investigated ponds. Analysis of variance performed on the CCA model revealed that the most significant environmental determinants controlling the occurrence and abundance of phytoplankton in the investigated ponds were COD (p = 0.009), Fe (p = 0.023) and Cr (p = 0.024). Results of the phytoplankton composition in the ponds indicated that physicochemical parameters play a very important role in their distribution and abundance.

Cement is one of the essential products that is needed in various construction works. It has been found very useful in the construction of houses, roads, bridges etc. In Nigeria the price of cement was quite stable in 1970’s and 1980’s. Recent market survey indicated that the price is on a very high side to the extent that it is almost becoming impossible for average Nigerians to have their own apartments where they can lay their heads after the daily activities. To the best of our knowledge, literature reveals that no attempt has been made to predict the price of cement in Nigeria, using Machine Learning (ML) models. Those that attempted it, mostly focused on statistical approach. In this research work, a machine learning model was used to predict the price using exponential regression model. Our method was compared with the existing ones and the performance is better. It produced the least Mean Squared Error (MSE) of 1.5455 and the percentage errors during the training were quite minimum. It was finally predicted that by the 2050, the price of 50kg bag of cement will be about ₦50,000 if government do not take necessary actions. This research work will be an eye opener to the government and other stakeholders.

Authors:   Kampala International University, BENJAMIN A. PETER
Published: June 2023

Hadamard product of holomorphic function is simply entry wise multiplication of two functions f and g in . The Hadamard products of two functions have one thing in common that is, it involves the origin. Irrespective of the factors of the Hadamard product either power series or holomorphic functions, the open sets on which they are examined contain the origin. The aim of this study, therefore, is to investigate on the properties of Hadamard product for a class of holomorphic functions with an arbitrary fixed point. The concept of Hadamard product, Cauchy-Schwartz, holomorphic functions, Ruscheweyh differential operators, and Nevanlinna’s theorem are employed in this study. This study generalized the coefficient inequalities for starlike and convex functions of exponential order  with an arbitrary fixed point using Ruscheweyh derivative. This study further provides an additional inequality and Hadamard product for a class of holomorphic functions with an arbitrary fixed point. It is concluded that Ruscheweyh derivative is an effective tool in the generalization of Hadamard product for a class of holomorphic functions with an arbitrary fixed point.

As stated in the concept of lifelong learning, approved by the Decree of the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan No. 944 dated December 28, 2021, at present, many countries around the world have gained experience in implementing lifelong learning. Increasing the level of coverage of the adult population with lifelong education. An important strategic way of skills development in developed countries is public funding of adult education programs [1]. The state may fully or partially finance continuing education, depending on the country and the type of program. Some countries provide support only to marginalized groups (disabled, prisoners, foreigners, illiterates) or job seekers. Also, individual companies may allocate funds to improve the skills of their employees or support may be given through grants, loans, vouchers, or students may have individual learning accounts. Finally, in some countries, adult education courses are free of charge and, as a result, no financial aid is provided. In this paper, the meaning and types of lifelong education are first defined. Then, the types and instruments of financing lifelong education in foreign countries as well as a number of systemic problems in the system of lifelong education in Kazakhstan are studied. It also proposes measures to solve the problems noted.

The introduction of a competency-based approach into the system of training and advanced training of specialists is aimed at improving interaction with the labor market, increasing the competitiveness of specialists, updating the content, methodology and the corresponding learning environment. The main goal is to train a qualified specialist of the appropriate level and profile, who is fluent in his profession and oriented in related fields of activity, ready for continuous professional growth, social and professional mobility. But the system of training and advanced training faces a number of tasks that require immediate solutions. The competency-based approach is seen as a modern counterpart to many more traditional approaches. This is an attempt to bring the system of training and advanced training into line with the needs of the labor market, an approach that focuses on the result of education, and the result is not the amount of information learned, but the ability of a person to act in various situations.
Los conceptos de función y calidad en la traducción: consideraciones en torno a las traducciones latinas del Corán
Authors: García González Marta
Published: June 2023

Los conceptos de función (skopos, Reiss & Vermeer 1991: 95-104) y calidad de la traducción han generado innumerables trabajos dentro del ámbito de los Estudios de Traducción. Se trata en nuestra opinión de dos conceptos indisociables, en la medida en que solo podemos valorar la calidad de una traducción cuando conocemos la función con la que esta fue concebida. En este sentido, pese a la asociación habitual de la traducción con el deseo de dar a conocer a los hablantes de una lengua (LM) un discurso inicialmente generado en otra (LO), lo cierto es que numerosos autores a lo largo del tiempo han reconocido la existencia de otras funciones igualmente frecuentes de la traducción. Este trabajo pretende revisar algunos aspectos de las traducciones del Corán al latín realizadas entre 1143 y 1680, analizando su(s) función(es), su difusión y la percepción de su calidad dentro del marco histórico de las relaciones-enfrentamientos entre cristianismo e islam.
A Video Segmentation Pipeline for Assessing Changes in Pupil Response to Light After Cannabis Consumption

Published: June 2023

Due to long-standing federal restrictions on cannabis-related research, the implications of cannabis legalization on traffic and occupational safety are understudied. Accordingly, there is a need for objective and validated measures of acute cannabis impairment that may be applied in public safety and occupational settings. Pupillary response to light may offer an avenue for detection that outperforms typical sobriety tests and tetrahydrocannabinol concentrations. We developed a video processing and analysis pipeline that extracts pupil sizes during a light stimulus test administered with goggles utilizing infrared videography. The analysis compared pupil size trajectories in response to a light for those with occasional, daily, and no cannabis use before and after smoking. Pupils were segmented using a combination of image pre-processing techniques and segmentation algorithms which were validated using manually segmented data and found to achieve 99% precision and 94% F-score. Features extracted from the pupil size trajectories captured pupil constriction and rebound dilation and were analyzed using generalized estimating equations. We find that acute cannabis use results in less pupil constriction and slower pupil rebound dilation in the light stimulus test.

Les humains ne sont pas les seuls êtres dotés d’une conscience et d’une sensibilité à évoluer dans la biosphère : il existe d’autres manières de percevoir et de comprendre, et donc d’autres conceptions du beau, si ce n’est d’autres formes de réalité. Le dossier « Animaux et figurations animales » tente de mieux comprendre ces phénomènes par le prisme de l’imaginaire et de l’esthétique.
Empreintes corporelles, entre traces et effacements. Vers une esthétique théâtrale de la disparition
Authors: Kim Sunga
Published: June 2023

Comme un pied de nez à la mimésis ou à des formes trop figuratives de représentation, le corps s’efface des scènes contemporaines pour laisser place à une trace ou une empreinte de lui-même. Comme si on cherchait à signifier son caractère indispensable. Cet article vise à interroger la réalité d’une esthétique théâtrale de la disparition, dont l’enjeu semble être, à travers l’absence du corps, tout autant d’en signifier la fragilité que de résister face à l’inéluctable finitude de l’être.

МОГУЋНОСТИ РЈЕШАВАЊА ПРОБЛЕМА НЕЗАПОСЛЕНИХ ИСТОРИЧАРА – ГРАДСКИ И ОПШТИНСКИ ИСТОРИЧАР
Authors: СМИЉАНИЋ АРАНЂЕЛ
Published: June 2023

Проблем незапослених историчара све више се уочава. Постојеће могућности су такве да се у будућност не може гледати са оптимизмом. Због тога је неопходно проналазити нове могућности за запошљавање дипломираних историчара. Једна од њих јесте идеја да се у сваком граду и општини Републике Српске запосли по један историчар који би се бавио локалном историјом. Тиме би се остварила двострука корист – добили бисмо квалитетне локалне монографије, док би проблем незапослених историчара у великој мјери био ријешен. Ову идеју сам већ промовисао на научном скупу на Филозофском факултету у Тузли и на Округлом столу о положају наставе историје у Републици Српској који је организовала Академија наука и умјетности Републике Српске. Сматрам да је неопходно непрестано понављање ове идеје, а најчитанији историјски часопис у Републици Српској је као створен за њену нову промоцију, уз саопштавање конкретних планова како би иста била остварена.
