Published: April 2017

Background: Neonatal septicaemia is characterized by systemic signs and symptoms of generalized bacteraemia with a positive blood culture in the first four weeks of life. This study was designed to detect Multi Drug Resistant pattern from organisms in neonatal septicaemic cases. The aim of the study is to find the antibiotic sensitivity pattern and drug resistance pattern (ESBL, MBL, Carbapenemase, AmpC β-lactamase, MRSA) among the organisms isolated.  Methods: This prospective study was carried out in the Department of Microbiology in association with Dept. of Paediatrics and NICU, of Kalinga Institute of Medical Sciences, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India during the period from November 2012 - April 2014. The study was conducted on 250 patients. The inclusion criteria are neonates with suspected septicaemia, admitted to NICU, of KIMS, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India. Two ml of venous blood from each neonate was collected & cultured by automated method. Phenotypic confirmatory tests for ESBL production and MBL detection was done as per CLSI guideline. MRSA detection was done by Cefoxitin disk (30 mcg) screen test.  Results: All gram positive pathogenic isolates were sensitive to Linezolid, Tigecycline and Vancomycin. Maximum resistance was seen against Benzylpenicilin and Ampicillin. Among the gram-negative isolates maximum antibiotic sensitivity was observed for Tigecycline, Levofloxacin and amikacin & resistance was maximum for cefadroxil and Ampicilin. Among the gram negative bacterial pathogens ESBL production was maximum by E.coli (75%) and Burkholderia cepacia (75%) followed by Enterobacter cloacae (66.7%) and Acinetobacter iwoffi (50%). Metallo- beta- lactamase production was seen maximum in Acinetobacter iwoffi (100%) followed by Burkholderia cepacia (75%). Methicillin resistance was seen maximum by S. epidermidis (58.3%) followed by S. haemolyticus, S. aereus, S. warneri and S. hominis.Conclusions: This study facilitated the screening of MRSA, ESBL and MBL producing pathogens which are an emerging problem. Long term surveillance is needed to combat this emerging global challenge.

Published: April 2017

Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) may be diverse among patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). However studies were limited. We aimed to quantify and compare the characteristics and relevant factors associated with HAIs among patients with AML and ALL. The surveillance-based study was conducted in a university teaching hospital. All adult patients diagnosed with acute leukemia (AL) and admitted into the Hematology Department for over 48 h were included. HAI characteristics and relevant factors were compared between AML and ALL patients. A consecutive sample of 994 patients with AL was recruited. The proportions of infected cases (27.78% vs. 28.31%, p = 0.888) and the HAI incidence (21.29 vs. 22.82 per 1,000 patient-days at risk, p = 0.733) were comparable among AML and ALL patients, respectively. Compared with ALL patients, higher risks of HAIs were found among AML patients with increasing duration of chemotherapy or lower hemoglobin level. Meanwhile, increased length of stays during previous cycles of chemotherapy, lower level of platelets, and diabetes were associated with higher risks of HAIs among ALL patients compared with AML patients. In conclusion, our results found that AML and ALL patients experienced different risks of HAIs associated with diverse relevant factors. Future multi-center studies are needed to provide stronger evidence.

The paper seeks to understand the influences of development policy initiatives on territorial in-tegration. Through the analysis of Vértes Nature Park case study we aimed at exploring whether the territorial relationships of the stakeholders can be restructured by spatially based develop-ment. The aim of the paper is to present the mechanisms of territorial integration by a case study analysis of rural territorial development.Our findings show that the participation and involvement of stakeholders in rural develop-ment are determined by their role and status in the initiative, thus the initiator actors are the more active ones. The territorial relationships of stakeholders are increased and strengthened by the level of involvement in the activities of Vértes Nature Park. Nevertheless, the territorial closeness also affects the stakeholders’ involvement. Csákvár and its surroundings have central position in this territorial relationship. The acceptance of the principals of the initiatives is also affected by the territorial closeness and it limits the contested development initiatives.

Published: April 2017

According to different statements more and more youngsters, under 25 years of age, appear in Public Work Programs at the present time in Hungary. Even it occurs more frequently that pa-rents, primarily because of financial reasons, take out their children from school, and send them to public workers.This paper draws attention to this phenomenon. Furthermore, it shows a possible paral-lel between those young people who are in JWT (Job Without Training) and those Hungarian youngsters who are working in Public Work Programs reflecting on the Hungarian particulari-ties of this parallel.The concept of JWT and its categories are presented, and also which of these categories may connect with the Hungarian public workers’ state of being. Statistical data show the rate of public workers and their gender breakdown. Reports also suggest that the rate of young public workers is growing and their situation may become futureless.The author thinks that the growth of young public workers’ rate and their settled situation in this employment sector is likely to make inevitable for them to become NEET in the future.
Feketegazdaság a Szovjetunióban

Published: April 2017

The study is based on G. Mars and Y. Altman, "The cultural bases of soviet Georgia's se-cond economy" (Soviet Studies 1983. Vol. XXXV [4]: 546-560), and G. Mars and Y. Altman, "The cultural bases of Soviet Central Asia's second economy (Uzbekistan and Tajikistan)", 1986 (Central Asian Survey 5 [3-4]: 195-204). The second economy, as the socialist version of the informal economy proposed by Grossman1 , can be defined as the set of economic activities that are aimed at personal gain and are in opposition to the current legal regulations. In this sense, Altman also considers all economic transactions that are in opposition to the current legislation to be informal.2 In the Soviet Union, at least in the period up to Gorbachev's reform, the second economy was a significant area of the economy, forming a continuum where, for example, there was no private ownership of agricultural land, but where goods grown at home (in the backyard) could be sold in markets, and where the kolhoz and the sovhoz (the Hungarian equivalents of the tsz and the state farm) had very different farming conditions.

Bullying is a widespread phenomenon in school communities. Although there are significant differences in prevalence between schools, regions and countries. Bullying is a complex problem that is related to several individual, family, school level and social factors. The data was collected in the last survey (in 2013/2014) of the Health Behaviour in School Aged Children Study (HBSC) that is a WHO coordinated nationally representative study. 4 types of bullying involvement was determined: bully, victim, bully-victim and not involved. The ratio of these types was analysed related to the variables of family affluence, school type and type of school administration (state, religious or other) There are no significant differences in the ratio of bullying involvement according to the school type, but there are significant differences according to type of school administration or cathegories of family affluence. Although social-cultural differences doesn’t seem to be key factors of bullying they might have stong contribution to its understanding and designing effective prevention programs.

It is normal that human beings fear death, even though everybody knows that, one day, he or she will die. Death is scary because one does not know wat will happen after death. A person who feels happy in this life will also fear death because he/she will leave the happy life. Komaruddin Hidayat, in his popular book, Psikologi Kematian, tries to discuss this problem. He suggests that in order to face death calmly, one has to know what death is, and what will happen to him/her in the life after death. He also maintains that, abstention from worldly pleasures may help one to be ready to face death. Above all, for him, the most important thing to do is to find the meaning of life.

MEMBEDAH TEORI SOSIOLOGI: Teori Pertukaran (Exchange Theory) George Caspar Homans
Authors: Wardani Wardani
Published: April 2017

This article is aimed at analyzing critically George Caspar Homans’s theory of exchange. The critical analysis that may be called here simply as “maping ideology” embodied in theory is needed to place the theory within the specific social and political condition, intellectual background, school of thought having great influence on it, and so forth, and also to assesses its limitedness as a theoretical frame-work of scientific research to explain complicated social phenomenon or human interaction. Influenced by psychological and economic theories, Homans’s theory of exchange has been intended at the beginning by the author as attack against Marxism domination that addressed criticism to capitalism as macro-structure oppressing the proletariat by the ruling class and against Durkheimian structural functionalism. By addressing the attack against Marxism and because of his intellectual and social background, Homans’s theory then has been regarded as an explanation justifying the existing situation. Being attributed as psychological reductionism, as neglecting the important role of structure, and deterministic are some of the objections addressed to his theory.

Stress on SMA students is a circumstance which gets negative assessment. It intimidates and pushes the students, in this case is UAN would appear a reaction such as emotional disorder, cognition, physiology and behavior disorder of SMA students. This research concerned 21 SMA students in grade XII, who had high stress level in facing UAN. The subjects were divided into two groups. First group was the experiment group (include 11 students) and it was the group who got the FGD treatment. The second group was control group (include 10 students) and this group didn’t get the FGD treatment. Collecting data was done by using Stress Scale in facing UAN. It was given (a) before FGD (pre-test) and (b) after FGD (post-test). The hypothesis is examined by using difference examination (t-test) by comparing mean pre-test and post-test. The result showed that there was a significant influence to decrease the stress in SMA students who were in experiment group (t = 6,540, p < 0,01) after they got FGD treatment. Experiment group had decreased the stress score to face UAN (Mean=7,476).

Este ano de 2017 é paradoxal para o conhecimento científico. Por um lado, é o pior ano para as políticas públicas de fomento à ciência e tecnologia. Pouco mais do que R$ 5 bilhões devem ser investidos nesse campo, o que representa um valor de 35% do que costumava a ser aplicado em anos anteriores. Mais ainda, é o ano em que pesquisadores fizeram uma inédita Marcha pela Ciência. Desta vez não pelo emprego e salários melhores nessa área, mas pelo respeito ao conhecimento baseado em evidências e pela utilidade desse tipo de conhecimento para a tomada de decisões em qualquer área. É muito estranho que, repentinamente, em 2017, pesquisadores de mais de 600 cidades em todo o mundo tiveram de se levantar para dizer algo tão simples: que o conhecimento científico é para ser levado a sério!

Aporias da fundamentação convencional dos direitos humanos e os caminhos da interculturalidade
Authors: Barretto Vicente de Paulo , Bragato Fernanda Frizzo
Published: April 2017

Resumo: A fundamentação dos direitos humanos é uma tarefa própria do campo de investigação filosófica que pretende, de um lado, refletir sobre a razão da existência desses direitos e, de outro, estabelecer os argumentos que lhe conferem validade e legitimidade.  Neste trabalho não se pretende responder diretamente às questões de existência e legitimidade dos direitos humanos. Os objetivos são, de um lado, demonstrar que a fundamentação é condição para a efetividade dos direitos humanos e, de outro, que existe um discurso convencional de fundamentação, filiado a pressupostos teóricos de matriz racional-individualista, que é, ao mesmo tempo, dominante e incongruente porque restringe as possibilidades de proteção universal desses direitos. Dominante porque a ele se filia grande parte dos jusfilósofos do Ocidente, entre eles o próprio Norberto Bobbio, os quais produzem a mais vasta e influente literatura sobre o tema. Incongruente porque o conceito de humanidade proposto pelo marco racional-individualista falha ao justificar a pretensa universalidade dos direitos humanos. A apropriação da noção de interculturalidade, por outro lado, pode constituir o ponto de partida para a construção de discursos de fundamentação que estejam atentos a realidades culturalmente plurais. O presente artigo é resultado parcial das investigações do Projeto de Pesquisa CNPq-Universal n. 476114/2013-6 Os Direitos Humanos no contexto Latino-americano: do caráter universal à interculturalidade integrado pelos autores.Palavras-chave: Fundamentação.

O arquivista como moderno profissional da informação (MIP): análise de competências à luz da literatura e da formação curricular
Authors: Santa Anna Jorge
Published: April 2017

As demandas e exigências do mercado de trabalho no âmbito das profissões da informação desencadeiam necessidades de aprimoramento das práticas profissionais, por conseguinte, remetem à reforma curricular, haja vista formar profissionais competentes que atendam as necessidades sociais. Os arquivistas, ao serem categorizados como profissionais da informação, também se inserem nesse contexto, devendo adquirir status de um Moderno Profissional da Informação (MIP). Sendo assim, este estudo analisa as competências do MIP relacionando-as ao arquivista, com base na literatura e na formação curricular. Investiga na literatura o que vem sendo publicado sobre o MIP; compara as competências do MIP com o arquivista; e investiga essas competências no âmbito da formação arquivística. Metodologicamente, realizou-se revisão na literatura sobre as competências do MIP e suas relações com os arquivistas e análise a dez currículos de escolas de Arquivologia do Brasil, haja vista detectar disciplinas voltadas para construção das competências do MIP. Após pesquisa teórica e documental, percebeu-se que a maioria dos estudos realizados (80%) compara o MIP ao bibliotecário. A literatura é escassa (10%) ao direcionar o MIP ao arquivista, como também sem delineá-lo a profissionais específicos (10%). Quanto à formação acadêmica, as escolas, em linhas gerais, disponibilizam disciplinas, cujo enfoque curricular contempla as quatro competências do MIP. Detectou-se que as escolas reconhecem a necessidade de ampliar as competências dos arquivistas, a ponto de eles se tornarem MIPs, haja vista adequarem-se aos novos desafios impostos pelo mercado de trabalho.
O profissional da informação e a dramaturgia infantil: estudo sobre a produção científica em periódicos da ciência da informação entre 2000 e 2011
Authors: Caldin Clarice Fortkamp , Soares Deyse
Published: April 2017

Trata da produção científica em periódicos sobre a atuação do profissional da informação na dramaturgia infantil no período compreendido entre 2000 e 2011. A Ciência da Informação é uma ciência social. Como tal, deve voltar-se para a sociedade (mundo dos homens) e aplicar todas as formas de conhecimento (entre eles o artístico).  Esse artigo tem como objetivo investigar, por meio da produção bibliográfica na área de Ciência da Informação, o envolvimento dos bibliotecários em especial e dos profissionais da informação com a dramaturgia infantil. A pesquisa foi exploratória, qualitativa, com o uso da analise bibliográfica como técnica para a coleta de dados. O pequeno número de artigos encontrados indica que o profissional da informação necessita às vezes extrapolar os limites da técnica e adentrar no terreno da arte, da expressividade. Há que mesclar ações profissionais/científicas com ações profissionais/artísticas. Lembra-se que a arte sempre foi precursora da ciência, da técnica e da tecnologia. Concluiu-se: os profissionais da informação precisam estar cientes do impacto da dramaturgia no imaginário infantil.
As percepções e práticas de publicação em acesso aberto dos pesquisadores de dois programas de pós-graduação em engenharia
Authors: Furnival Ariadne Chloe , Guirra Daniel Andre Rigo
Published: April 2017

Apresenta os resultados de um estudo que buscou conhecer as práticas e percepções de pesquisadores credenciados em dois programas de pós-graduação em engenharia avaliados com nota sete pela CAPES, em relação à publicação em canais de acesso aberto comparado com aqueles restritos, de assinatura.  Foi usada uma abordagem metodológica mista. Dados de publicação referentes ao período 2008 a 2012 foram levantados e tabulados dos currículos Lattes dos pesquisadores usando os softwares ScriptLattes e VantagePoint respectivamente. Os 212 títulos de revistas científicas e os 561 artigos identificados dessa fase foram daí pesquisados em outras plataformas como o SciELO, DOAJ, SHERPA/ROMEO, Google Acadêmico e o próprio Repositório Institucional da instituição dos programas de pós-graduação para verificar a proporção de artigos publicados disponível em acesso aberto. Concomitantemente a esses levantamentos quantitativos, foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com 11 dos pesquisadores dos dois programas para identificar suas percepções em relação à publicação em geral e especificamente em acesso aberto, e em repositórios abertos. Dos dados quantitativos levantados, foi verificado que apenas 25,8% dos artigos publicados do primeiro programa de pós e 23,3% do segundo são disponíveis em acesso aberto. No entanto, nas entrevistas, a maioria dos autores apoia o acesso aberto, embora manifestem pouco conhecimento sobre a via verde, ou os repositórios abertos, incluindo aquele da sua própria instituição, como também desconhecem o caminho complementar de se publicar primeiramente em revistas de alto impacto com o posterior arquivamento do mesmo artigo no repositório, no término do eventual tempo de embargo da editora.

Discorre sobre o grande volume de dados e informações disponíveis no ambiente das organizações; sobre a dificuldade de se analisar dados e informações estruturadas e, principalmente, as não estruturadas que podem auxiliar nas tomadas de decisão nas organizações; sobre a velocidade com que os dados e informações relevantes surgem e se modificam; e sobre a complexidade de entender se um dado ou uma informação é confiável ou não e, principalmente, se ela pode agregar algum valor à gestão estratégica empresarial. Sob o aspecto metodológico, trata-se de uma discussão de natureza teórica. A pesquisa bibliográfica procura recuperar conceitos relacionados a Big Data e Agente de Software Inteligente, identificando características que, se automatizadas, podem contribuir com o processo de busca e análise de dados e informações relevantes para a elaboração e acompanhamento do Planejamento Estratégico Empresarial. Por fim, demonstra-se que na interseção desses conceitos é possível observar que um Sistema de Inteligência Organizacional e Competitiva pode ser ampliado e evoluído ao utilizar as características de Big Data e Agente de Software Inteligente, resultado no Modelo proposto.

Published: April 2017

A arquitetura da informação é considerada como um domínio estratégico de produção colaborativa da Ciência da Informação. Descrevem-se as condições da produção colaborativa na arquitetura da informação, considerando-a como subárea de estudo da Ciência a Informação. Para tanto, abordam-se, especificamente, indicadores da produção científica que compreendem temáticas de estudo, tipologia e formação da autoria, programas de pós-graduação e áreas a que se encontra vinculada, entre outros. Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória e descritiva. Mapeia-se a produção científica do Encontro Nacional de Pesquisa em Ciência da Informação (ENANCIB), no período de 2003 a 2013, no repositório “Questões em Rede”. Utiliza-se a bibliometria para identificar elementos paratextuais e textuais que formam indícios da produção colaborativa na arquitetura da informação. Constatou-se a pluralidade na formação acadêmica dos pesquisadores que abordam a arquitetura da informação, o compartilhamento de linguagens, alguns indícios das convergências disciplinares a partir da colaboração em coautoria, bem como um plexo de relações através das citações indiretas que representam o compartilhamento de elementos teórico-metodológicos na produção interdisciplinar. Além disso, a formação acadêmica dos pesquisadores com maior índice de produtividade é vinculada principalmente à Biblioteconomia e à Ciência da Computação. Considera-se que a produção colaborativa na arquitetura da informação se apresenta como processo de produção multidisciplinar, constituindo-se em um domínio convergente que possibilita a efetividade de práticas interdisciplinares na Ciência da Informação.

Authors: Santos Neto João Arlindo dos , Almeida Júnior Oswaldo Francisco de
Published: April 2017

Apresenta uma pesquisa sobre as bibliotecas universitárias e as formas de mediação da informação através das ferramentas web, em especial das redes sociais. Como objetivo identifica e analisa a mediação da informação no Facebook. Quanto aos procedimentos metodológicos, o artigo é de caráter exploratório e utiliza inicialmente de uma breve revisão bibliográfica dos termos biblioteca universitária, redes sociais e mediação da informação e, posteriormente, analisa uma coleta de dados a partir do método da pesquisa documental. Utiliza como técnica de coleta a observação e de análise dos dados a Análise de Conteúdo. Como resultados, apresenta o número e os nomes das contas localizadas na rede social, as características delas (tipo de perfil, número de amigos ou curtidas), quantidade de posts feitos por cada conta e sua periodicidade, o conteúdo das postagens distribuído em 15 categorias temáticas, a interação existente entre as contas das bibliotecas e seus interlocutores, a partir das curtidas, comentários e compartilhamentos. Considera que o uso das redes sociais ainda é pequeno pelas unidades de informação pesquisadas, visto que somente 31% delas utilizam o Facebook como forma de mediar a informação e interagir com seu público. Conclui que o número de amigos no perfil, curtidas na página ou quantidade de postagens, não garantem uma boa interlocução entre a conta e os usuários, visto que o momento em que os usuários se encontram online na rede interfere mais do que os demais elementos apontados.

Why You Should Prefer Low Volatility ETFs
Authors: Cohen Gil
Published: April 2017

Low volatility ETFs have become popular in recent year because investors are starting to understand the advantages involved in investing in those ETFs compared to traditional index investment. In this research I have examined the performance of six popular low volatility ETFs, four of them invest in U.S stocks and the other two invest in other developed and emerging markets. Results have pointed out that not only five of the low volatility ETFs have exposed their investors to lower risk, four of them have also produced higher returns. The advantage of investing in low volatility ETFs is prominent in the U.S stock market. All three sizes of stocks categories (Large, Mid and Small Capitalization) low volatility ETFs have outperformed their indexes bench marks in terms of risk and returns. For the non U.S stock investing, while no advantage have been found for investing in low volatility ETFs for developed countries, significant lower risk was found for emerging markets.
Improvement and Validation of Ranging Accuracy with YG-13A

Published: April 2017

YG-13A represents the highest level of Chinese SAR satellites to date. In this paper, we report on experiments conducted to improve and validate ranging accuracy with YG-13A. We analyze the error sources in the YG-13A ranging system, such as atmospheric path delay, and transceiver channel delay. A real-time atmospheric delay correction model is established to calculate the atmospheric path delay, considering the troposphere delay and ionosphere delay. Six corner reflectors (CRs) were set up to ensure the accuracy of validation methods. Pixel location accuracies of up to 0.479-m standard deviation can be achieved after a complete calibration. We further demonstrate that the adjustment of the CRs can cause a marginal loss of ranging precision. After eliminating this error, the ranging accuracy is improved to 0.237 m. For YG-13A, a single frequency GPS receiver is used and the orbital nominal accuracy is 0.3 m, which is the biggest factor restricting its ranging accuracy. Our results show that the ranging accuracy of YG-13A can achieve decimeter-level, which is lower than centimeter-level accuracy with TerraSAR-X loading a dual frequency GPS. YG-13A has great convenience in terms of access to control points and target location that does not depend on ground equipment.

Published: April 2017

Historically, Mangifera indica L. cultivations have been widely rooted in tropical areas of India, Africa, Asia and Central America. However, at least 20 years ago its spreading allowed the development of some cultivars, also in Sicily, the South of Italy, where the favorable subtropical climate and adapted soils represent the perfect field to create new sources of production for Sicilian agricultural supply chain. Currently, cultivations of Kensington Pride, Keitt, Klenn, Maya and Tommy Atkins varieties are active in Sicilian island and their products meet the requirements of local and European markets. Mango plants produce fleshy stone fruits rich in phytochemicals with an undisputed nutritional value for its high content of flavonoids, vitamins, micro- and macro-elements, vital for maintaining health. This review provides an overview of the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties of Mango, a fruit that should be included in everyone’s diet for its multifaceted biochemical actions and nutraceutical potential.
The Effects of Agricultural Extension Service on Farm Productivity: Evidence from Mbale District in Uganda
Authors: Lee Yeyoung , An Donghwan , Kim Taeyoon
Published: April 2017

This study estimates the effects of agricultural extension on agricultural productivity in the rural area of Uganda, i.e. Mbale district. The results show that agricultural extension service in Mbale district has a significantly positive impact on bean and rice production, gross farm revenue, and profit except for maize output. It presents several contributions of agricultural extension in Mbale district. First, both worker and allocative effects on bean and rice significantly contribute to agricultural performance, implying that both effects are crucial in this region. Second, extension service for each product shows positive effects through the allocative effect rather than worker effect. Specifically, the input-selection effect is found to be a more influential contributor than input-allocation effect in this area. Overall, the findings support the hypothesis of this paper that extension increases not only farmers’ direct output, also allocative ability in crop production. The results from the three function approaches lead us to the implication that local government, development project planners or stakeholders who deliver extension in Mbale district should increase investment on public extension system for more effective extension work in order to achieve long-term goals in terms of rural development in this region.

Published: April 2017

Pelabuhan perikanan berperan penting dalam pengelolaan dan pemanfaatan sumberdaya ikan, kegiatan praproduksi, produksi, pengolahan, pemasaran ikan dan pengawasan sumberdaya ikan. Namun demikian, keberadaan sistem pelelangan di pelabuhan perikanan tersebut dihadapkan pada kompleksitas permasalahan yang tidak hanya menghambat perekonomian daerah, akan tetapi juga mengganggu keberlanjutan perikanan. Beberapa permasalahan tersebut antara lain kuatnya peran patronase nelayan dan pembeli yang tidak tercatat di pelabuhan perikanan, ketiadaan kepemilikan modal para pelelang ikan, dan sarana prasarana pelabuhan perikanan yang sangat minim. Oleh karena itu, Kabupaten Tangerang yang memiliki potensi perikanan mengoptimalkan peran dan fungsi Tempat Pelelangan Ikan, salah satunya adalah optimalisasi pelelangan ikan di Cituis. Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu:  (1) menganalisis isu dan permasalahan kelembagan Tempat Pelelangan Ikan di Pangkalan Pendaratan Ikan Cituis; dan (2) menyusun rekomendasi kebijakan dalam penguatan peran kelembagaan Tempat Pelelangan Ikan. Metode yang digunakan adalah Logical Framework Analysis, yang hasilnya menunjukan bahwa permasalahan utama di Tempat Pelelangan Ikan Cituis adalah terganggunya pelelangan ikan, yang disebabkan oleh kemampuan daya beli pedagang kecil, sistem lelang di hutang, hubungan sistem langgan, dan minimnya dana talangan. Oleh karena itu,  diperlukan penguatan fungsi kelembagaan Tempat Pelelangan Ikan, penguatan peran langgan, peningkatan fasilitas pelabuhan perikanan, dan  penegakan hukum.
