Authors: Phinanti Erlin , Tobing Agustinus Lumban
Published: July 2023

This research was conducted on the revised Compliance Risk Management (CRM) of the tax administration by the Directorate General of Taxes (DJP) in 2021 through SE39/PJ/2021. DGT issued guidelines for implementing CRM-based and business intelligence-based supervisory activities. The new policy should be evaluated to find out whether the policy increases the level of tax compliance. This qualitative case study conducted interviews to directly obtain practitioners' data. The research was conducted at the East Jakarta DGT Regional Office, and Jakarta Pulogadung Primary Tax Service Office (KPPP). William Dunns evaluation framework was employed to gain more comprehensive results of effectiveness, efficiency, adequacy, equity, responsiveness, and appropriateness. This study concluded that CRM is not effective to raise the tax compliance rate. In addition, this study proposed several suggestions from the supervisory function executors regarding the future improvement and development of CRM, such as cleaner data. The results of this study can be used as a reference in developing CRM. In addition, other instruments and approaches should be considered to gain wider research insights.
Dal cielo delle regolarità al cielo dell’eccezionalità: i mostri celesti di Ulisse Aldrovandi
Authors: Bertozzi Eugenio
Published: July 2023

I mostri celesti sono l’oggetto della trattazione sviluppata nell’ultimo capitolo del celebre volume Monstrorum Historia di Ulisse Aldrovandi, pubblicato nel 1642, a quasi quarant’anni dalla morte dello scienziato. Mostri celesti per antonomasia sono le comete, alle quali verrà dato particolare spazio nel presente articolo. L’analisi sviluppata permetterà di trarre conclusioni in merito al tema dell’illustrazione scientifica, introdotta nel testo aldrovandiano come strumento di valorizzazione dei testi antichi, greci e romani. Inoltre, un confronto tra alcuni passi della Monstrorum Historia e la celebre opera Sidereus Nuncius pubblicata da Galileo Galilei nel 1610, permetterà di evidenziare come ad appena nove anni dalla condanna di Galileo Galilei nel 1633, elementi simbolo della rivoluzione scientifica quali il cannocchiale, venivano integrati dai successori di Aldrovandi al fine di aggiornare costantemente l’opera. L’analisi che si propone mostra inoltre come nella prima metà del Seicento, il cielo – già trasformato in laboratorio di osservazione privilegiato nella transizione verso la scienza moderna da scienziati quali Copernico, Kepler e Galilei – poteva ancora essere scrutato con altri intenti, in cerca di fenomeni rari ed eccezionali, i mostri.

Authors: KORKMAZ Turhan , NUR Tuğba
Published: July 2023

The goal of this study is to examine the relationship between ESG scores and firm performance and whether firm size and age moderating role in this relationship. The period of the study was determined as 2013-2021 and the sample is comprised of banks listed in the BIST Bank Index. The panel data analysis found a statistically significant and positive correlation between ESG scores and firm performance and a statistically significant and negative correlation between firm age and size and firm performance. In addition, while it was confirmed that firm age has a statistically significant and positive moderating effect in the relationship between ESG scores and firm performance, it was found that firm size does not have a significant moderating effect. Therefore, it is safe to say for the relevant period and sample that increased efforts of firms in environment, social responsibility, and proper governance have a positive influence on financial performance.

Authors: KAPLAN Hatice Elanur , HAZAR Adalet , BABUŞCU Şenol
Published: July 2023

The objective of this research was to clarify how the scale factor and bank performance relate to one another. It was observed that the benefit of scale emerged in various economic areas. In terms of efficient resource usage and cost advantage, the banking industry must determine if scale creates an advantage or not. Because banks’ financial services are strongly linked to the expansion of the economy. In this framework, banks were divided into three clusters as large-, medium-, and small-scaled banks and analyzed as two different panels, consisting of 7 large- and medium-scaled banks and 13 small-scaled banks, to explicate the factors influencing the performance of deposit banks between 2012:Q4-2020:Q3. As a result, the study’s results showed that internal and macroeconomic variables, which were significant components regarding the scale structure of the banks’ performance, had a high explanatory power in the analysis of commercial banks and were crucial to the profitability of the banks. Even when deposit banks were categorized as Large-, Medium-, and Small-Scaled Banks, the chosen explanatory variables were significant and strong estimators.

Intangible assets and export growth of Croatian exporters
Authors: Bašić Maja
Published: July 2023

This study tests the existence and direction of the relationship between investment in intangible assets and export and internationalization growth using the VAR, IRF, and VECM approaches. To gain a deeper understanding of this relationship, the following research question was posed: How does investment in intangible assets affect Croatian exporters’ export and internationalization growth? How long does this effect last? Based on the microfinance data of the largest Croatian exporters, the results suggest a relationship between exports and investments in intangible assets in previous periods. Accumulated impulse responses suggest that investment in intangible assets reduces and increases export growth. This U-shaped relationship between intangible asset investment and export growth does not converge to equilibrium within the ten years studied. The VECM shows that increased intangible assets lead to increased exports in the long run. However, the speed of adjustment to long-run equilibrium is slow, only 6.42% annually. The study is significant in two ways. First, it points out the relationship between investment in intangible assets and long-term export growth. Second, it provides information for policy implementation on the choice of strategic direction companies need to take to reposition themselves, preferably in forward-looking value chains, while opening discussion of the institutional infrastructure needed for this repositioning.
A conceptual model on how technology assisted supplemental work leads to work-life conflict
Authors: de Alwis Sulakshana
Published: July 2023

Empirijski dokazi sugeriraju da dodatni posao, zasnovan na tehnologiji, postaje sve češći na modernim radnim mjestima. Od zaposlenika se često očekuje da budu na raspolaganju za posao čak i nakon radnih sati, putem informacijsko-komunikacijskih tehnologija (IKT), što dovodi do konflikta između poslovnog i osobnog života. Koristeći tri nedavne empirijske studije i relevantnu literaturu, u ovom se radu razvija argument da same IKT ne mogu doprinijeti konfliktu između poslovnog i osobnog života zaposlenika, s obzirom da je navedeni konflikt, u današnjem hiper-povezanom svijetu, rezultat konstitutivnog povezivanja između IKT-a te ljudskih izbora, vjerovanja, normi i ponašanja. Stoga se smatra da razumijevanje doživljaja poslovnog i osobnog života na suvremenim radnim mjestima traži proučavanje međuovisnosti između IKT-a i društvenih elemenata. Predlaže se da je doživljaj poslovnog i osobnog života suvremenih zaposlenika potrebno promatrati kroz uklapanje društvenih i materijalnih čimbenika. S obzirom na prirodu povezivanja između IKT-a i društvenih elemenata, uklapanje socio-materijalnih čimbenika stvara različite oblike iskustva za različite ljude. Predloženi konceptualni model traži dodatno istraživanje u području dodatnog posla zasnovanog na tehnologiji te konflikta između poslovnog i osobnog života, promatranog iz socio-materijalne perspektive. Buduća bi se istraživanja mogla usredotočiti na ulogu organizacijskih normi, organizacijske i nacionalne kulture, rodnih normi, segmentacijskih preferencija, taktika uspostavljanja granica između poslovnog i osobnog života te politika za upravljanje radom od kuće pomoću IKT-a. Uz model se prezentiraju i preporuke za teoriju i praksu.

A Collaborative Self-Study of Supervisors in a University-Based Literacy Clinic: Exploring Tensions in Support, Feedback, and Conflict Resolution
Authors: Carter Hannah , Abbott Jadelyn , Herzberg Lauren , Hindman Annie , Swainston Pam
Published: July 2023

This article reports on a collaborative self-study conducted by five supervisors in a university-based literacy clinic. Over two semesters of mentoring elementary teacher candidates, we met weekly and reflected biweekly. The purpose of this research was to identify the tensions that supervisors were contemplating as they mentored and supervised candidates. Our findings indicate that we were grappling with ways to 1) provide candidates with equitable support; 2) guide candidates, rather than tell them what to do; and 3) confront conflict. By detailing the ways we reflected on and explored these tensions, we include suggestions for teacher education supervision and teacher education more broadly, both from our own experiences and previous research.

Suffusion prediction model based on physical parameters for gap-graded and well-graded soils
Authors: Minh Tran Dinh , Duc Ha Anh
Published: July 2023

Suffusion is one of the four types of internal erosion and accounts for 46% of erosion phenomena in earth dams. Suffusion is an erosion of fine particles inside the soil structure that move out of the voids between coarse particles caused by permeability flow. Identification of internal erosion is necessary to mitigate the loss of humans and property as underground erosion occurs. However, determining suffusion susceptibility in situ is complex and takes a lot of time. This study proposed a fine-grained erosion prediction model based on physical parameters related to the grading curve and the dry density. Using the principal component analysis (PCA) tool evaluated the influence of these parameters on suffusion. The proposed predictive model of the erosion resistance index (ERI) supports stakeholders in quickly determining the extent of erosion and then taking appropriate measures to maintain the earth dams.
A combination of forensic-based investigation algorithm and density peak-based fuzzy clustering for custom segmentation
Authors: Nguyen Thi Phuong Quyen
Published: July 2023

Custom segmentation is a process of classifying potential customers based on their mutual features such as shopping habits, consumption trends, and demand to provide an effective marketing campaign for each customer group. Data clustering is one of the most common methods for custom segmentation. This study proposed a novel clustering method that employs density peak-based fuzzy c-means (DP-FCM) and forensic-based investigation (FBI) algorithms. The proposed method (denoted as DP-FBI-FCM) aims to provide an effective clustering technique that can exploit the global optimal solution for custom segmentation problems. Besides, the proposed DP-FBI-FCM is used to segment wholesale customer data of a supermarket. As a result, four distinct customer groups are classified. Businesses can implement different strategies in each cluster to retain and attract their customers.

Authors: Marshall Amy , Windle Alice , Harvey Gillian , Davy Carol Patricia
Published: July 2023

Objective: This scoping review seeks to identify the extent and nature of the existing literature in relation to implementing change within aged care services catering for diverse and marginalised groups.Introduction: Innovating and implementing change in the aged care sector is integral to meeting future challenges. However, despite increasing diversity among the ageing population, older people accessing aged care services are often treated as a relatively homogenous group, leaving those with different needs and priorities with inappropriate or inadequate care. To implement change in the aged care sector successfully will require meeting the needs of a diverse ageing population. Understanding how change has been implemented with diverse groups of older people will help inform more inclusive and appropriate future implementation efforts in the sector. Inclusion criteria: This scoping review will include peer-reviewed primary studies, systematic and scoping reviews that focus on the implementation of best practice or innovation within aged care services that provide services for diverse and marginalised older people. Methods: This review will be conducted in accordance with JBI methodology for scoping reviews and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). The databases to be searched include PubMed, CINAHL, SCOPUS and PsycINFO. The search will be limited to articles published after December 31, 2012. Screening and data extraction will occur independently in duplicate. The review outcomes will be presented in tabular format and supported by a narrative summary.

Comparing Room Acoustical Ratings In An Interactive Virtual Environment To Those In The Real Room
Authors: Stärz Felix , Kroczek Leon O. H. , Roßkopf Sarah , Mühlberger Andreas , Van de Par Steven , Blau Matthias
Published: July 2023

To transfer listening experiments from the real world to the laboratory, audio-visual environments can be used. Interactive virtual environments (IVEs), with head-tracked binaural audio playback via headphones and visualisation via a head-mounted display (HMD) are a promising tool for this task. Audio reproduction within an IVE can be evaluated for authenticity, plausibility, and transfer plausibility. However, these paradigms do not indicate whether experiments in an IVE, typically located in a completely different room, yield the same results as real-world experiments. In a previous study, plausibility was evaluated using an IVE in the original room. A high degree of plausibility was observed as long as the directivity of the sources was taken into account in the room simulation. The current study utilizes the same IVE for multi- stimulus rating experiments. Participants had to rate five room acoustic related attributes for head-tracked binaural auralisations based on measured and simulated binaural room impulse responses and a loudspeaker reproduction in the real room. Participants could perceive small differences in reverberation and gave higher ratings to auralizations based on simulated BRIRs compared to the real loudspeaker in the room.
Learning to suppress a distractor does not depend on working memory resources
Authors: Vicente-Conesa Francisco , Castillejo Ignacio , Vadillo Miguel A.
Published: July 2023

Over the last decade, the additional singleton task has been widely used to study visual statistical learning. In this paradigm, participants are instructed to find a target while ignoring a series of distractors. In some trials, a salient singleton distractor is added to the search display, making the task more difficult. However, if the singleton appears more frequently in one particular location of the display, participants eventually learn to suppress attention towards this location. It has been suggested that this type of learning is probably implicit and independent of working memory (WM) resources. To our knowledge, only one study has explored the impact of WM in suppression effect (Gao and Theeuwes, 2020). However, there are reasons to suspect that the amount and type of WM load used in that study may have been suboptimal to detect any effects on distractor suppression. The aim of the present study was to explore the impact of WM load on distractor suppression addressing these issues. Contrary to our expectations, our results confirm that this type of learning is indeed highly resilient even to strong manipulations of working memory load.

The network perspective to psychopathology posits that mental disorders emerge from the dynamic interactions of elements such as emotions, cognitions, behaviors and symptoms. Investigating such interactions requires studying how they unfold over time, and there is agreement that such studies should go beyond single disorder. Of the many challenges facing this field, a critical obstacle is the lack of a transdiagnostic Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) measurement protocol to study the full range of psychopathology and network modelling. The current study aims to fill this gap in three steps. First, a survey was developed and completed by 96 clinicians, asking them to provide the three EMA constructs most relevant for people with (up to three) disorders they specialize in, as well as the three EMA constructs most relevant from a transdiagnostic perspective. In a second step, we conducted 12 focus groups with clinical experts on particular types of psychopathology (e.g., mood disorders, anxiety disorders). Finally, a selection of items was reached by consensus among the researchers. Two raters coded the online survey items independently, with an inter-rater agreement of 87.3%. Jaccard similarity indices showed between-disorders overlap of EMA items of up to 52.6%. The most often mentioned transdiagnostic constructs were mood, sleep quality, and stress. A list of items was then created based on how frequently items were mentioned and how informative they were. This list was complemented with the information from the focus groups, resulting in a transdiagnostic EMA measurement protocol that balances completeness across disorders and participant burden.

Research on visual searching has highlighted the role of cross-modal interactions between semantically congruent visual and auditory stimuli. Typically, such sounds facilitate performance. Conversely, semantically incongruent sounds may impair visual search efficiency for action scenes, though consensus has yet to be reached. This study investigated whether interference effects occur within the action-scene search paradigm. Participants performed a search task involving four simultaneously presented video stimuli, accompanied by one of three sound conditions: sound congruent with the target, congruent with a distractor, or a control sound. Auditory interference was observed, though it was relatively weak and varied across conditions rather than being simply present or absent. The observed variability in interference effects may align with the established view that observers typically ignore semantic distractor information in goal-directed searches, except in cases where the strength of target designation is compromised. These findings offer insights into the complex interplay between auditory and visual stimuli in action scene searches, suggesting that these underlying mechanisms may also apply to other paradigms, such as those involving conventional real object searches.

Introduction: Previous studies show that reading behavior varies with the readers’ Levels of Expertise (LoE) in a task area. Except for LoE, other factors like acquired information plays a role in this process. In the area of health policymaking, people read supporting documents to inform their decisions. This leads to a natural question: could it be possible to predict the decisions based on the reading pattern of the supporting document on top of their LoE? Method: We collected eye tracker data from a group of people with various LoE. We used the heatmaps as the primary pattern of reading. These were prepared using the average fixation duration of the individuals. First, we performed a hierarchical cluster analysis with the pairwise correlation matrix between the heatmaps, to see whether heatmaps as A single feature were effective to reach our goal. In the second step, we made an ensemble of the features of the reading patterns from the heatmaps and pupillometric features, and LoE, with the decision made by the participants as an outcome, using AdaBoost regressor. In this decision-making task, one could choose one among expensive, prudent, and midway. Result: The first analysis reveals to us that there are a minority number of individuals who read less than the majority group. This minority group tends to make decisions in the extremities. The result of AdaBoost-regressor, shows us 1. the LoE is a stronger feature than the patterns of reading to predict the decision to be taken. 2. the pupillometric features are weaker feature than the reading patterns from the heatmaps for our task. Conclusion: Reading patterns could be useful for forecasting a decision, given the LoE of the individual. Heatmaps can be used as both qualitative and quantitative measures for reading patterns.
Influence of climatic conditions on forest fires in Central Yakutia

The activity of forest fires has greatly increased in recent years in Central Yakutia. This can lead to the radical transformation of permafrost landscapes and their degradation. This study aimed to determine the effects of climatic conditions on forest fire activity in this area. We analyzed data on air temperature and rainfall during the fire season from 2000 to 2020. The total annual burned areas have noticeably increased since the 2000s. Forest fires covered an area of more than a million hectares in 2002 and 2011. This trend was associated with climate change. The mean annual air temperature in Yakutsk increased by approximately 2 °C from 2000 to 2020, while the summer precipitation decreased. Both air temperature and the amount of precipitation during the fire season affect the accumulation of dry combustible material under the forest canopy, which determines whether favorable conditions are created for the spread of forest fires over large areas. We showed which climatic conditions are typical for periods of high and low fire activity. We analyzed the climatic conditions of certain years with the maximum and minimum burnt areas. Fire activity in the study area depends on the climatic conditions at the beginning of the fire season. High fire activity occurs at very high air temperatures; however, the predominant role is the deficiency of precipitation. The study of the dependence of forest fire activity on climatic conditions is important for estimating the consequences caused by climate change in permafrost landscapes.

The temperature regime showed a statistically significant positive trend in Yakutsk during the period 1961–2021. Thus, climate warming in the region has led to minor phenological shifts in the seasonal development of the Allium species, which differ in amplitude, duration, and direction. However, statistical analysis did not show significant differences in the phenological cycles of A. schoenoprasum, A. senescens, and A. ramosum. In a climate that has been changing for 54 years, these species have retained stability in the timing of their main phenological phases. The most noticeable phenological response to climate change was noted in two species – A. prostratum, A. splendens, that respond with statistically significant shifts in the beginning of flowering period (A. prostratum, р = 0,0009), the end of vegetative period (A. splendens, р = 0,0137), duration of prefloral period (A. prostratum, p = 0,0162) and duration of vegetative period (A. splendens, p = 0,0298). We conclude that a slight shift in the timing of the main phenological phases in the five species of the genus Allium over 54 years suggests the inertia of the phenological response of the plants to climate change.

The global navigation system allowed us to study the ecology of the brown bear (Ursus arctos) in Yakutia, its space use, and movements. Data on the activity of brown bear in the territory of the region after leaving the den are presented for the first time. The study period lasted for 55 days, during which we obtained 1424 locations and collected information on 52 daily scale movements of brown bear using a satellite collar. Analysis of the data showed that the area of the spring-summer home range of an adult male brown bear, calculated using the method of the minimum convex polygon with inclusion of 100% locations, was 463 km². According to the fixed core method, the size of the home range area was 354.2 km², including a core area size of 33.5 km². On average, a male brown bear moved 11.8 km per day for the entire tracking period (limit of 0.95-28.5 km). The highest indicators of the daily run by male brown bear were registered in the first (15.3±1.79 km) and second (15.5±1.68 km) ten days in June compared to other months.

Introduction: Gender-based violence (GBV) against female sex workers (FSWs) increases their risk of unwanted pregnancies, abortion, HIV, and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Hence, this study aims to assess the impacts of grassroots interventions on GBV against FSW in Benue State, Nigeria.
Methods: The study is a cross-sectional baseline-post-intervention survey using a randomized cluster sampling technique. It was carried out in six local governments of the State using structured questionnaires to collect data from the respondents. Data were analyzed using IBM Statistical Package for the Social Science (SPSS) version 25.0.
Results: This study comprised 446 FSWs with 223 from each baseline and intervention survey. The prevalence of GBV was 48.0% in the baseline and 59.2% in the intervention (P<0.001). The most common GBV were being beaten/battered/kicked (26.0%) in the baseline and 30.9% in the intervention (P>0.05). Paying partners (65.6%), the police (53.0%), and vigilantes (30.3%) were the top perpetrators of GBV in the post-intervention study, higher than 41.3%, 17.5%, and 3.9% in the baseline (P<0.001). Access to health care services after GBV was 43.0% in the baseline and 72.7% in the intervention (P<0.001). Only 24.2% of post-intervention respondents would keep cases of GBV to themselves instead of reporting them to appropriate authorities, compared to 53.3% in baseline (P<0.001).
Conclusion: The study recorded higher reports of GBV among the FSWs after the intervention than at the baseline, in which most cases of GBV were underreported. The increased ability to report cases among FSWs after intervention helped to improve the boldness of the victims in reporting the GBV.
