Decrement in Swimming Performance with Added Burden of Outer Clothing
Authors: Laakso Bente W. , Horneman Ebbe K. , Grimstad Rannei , Stallman Robert Keig
Published: August 2018

Background:

Most drowning occurs after an involuntary fall into open deep water. Thus, the victim is usually wearing outer clothing. The added burden of clothing may reduce the chance of survival.

Methods:

Grade Four children (n = 490) swam a 200 m combined test, twice, half with outer clothing first, half without. The test included jump or dive into deep water, swim 100 m on the front, stop and rest 3 min front and back, swim 100 m on the back and climb out over edge of pool. Each skill was scored from 0 to 2.0, a perfect score being 12.0. The Wilcoxen Signed Rank test was used to test the significance of the difference between treatments. Total scores with and without outer clothing were correlated using the Spearman rho.

Results:

The average total scores were 10.65 without outer clothing and 8.55 with (of 12.0). The Wilcoxen Z score was 2.79, statistically significant at p = 0.005. The Spearman rho between the two scores was 0.41. Of those who were judged able to swim without outer clothing, a significant number were judged unable to swim with outer clothing. This was true at whatever level “can swim” was arbitrarily placed. Among those who scored best, the difference between without and with clothing was considerably less than among those who scored poorly.

Conclusions:

The added burden of clothing significantly affected skill performance. It cannot be assumed that one who can swim without outer clothing, can swim with. The moderate correlation between scores suggests that economical movement may be the quality which transfers from without to with clothing.

Ecthyma Gangrenosum (EG) is usually a-sudden-onset disease
affecting multiple regions of body with various symptoms and findings. Although
the problem is seemed to be consequence of infections like Pseudomonas
aeruginosa, some unpredictable causes may involve in it. Due to the rapid onset
of the disease, practitioners are often unprepared for the EG. We are also
qualified for treating lesions caused by burns but not EG.  Although we were also unrehearsed for EG
treatment, our facility was one of the experienced tertiary care children’s hospitals.
Therefore, we were able to accomplish the problem in these 3 patients. Herein,
we shared our treatment plots of EG. We believe these experiences will be
helpful to comprehend alternative management protocols when treatment disappointments
were observed during clinical progress.

Published: August 2018

Conditions and facilities of English language classes in the remote area encourage the negotiation of learning to solve problems. This narrative research aims to reveal strategies of pre-service teachers of the SM3T program in the process of the negotiation of English language learning. The study used diaries and interview transcripts from four teachers from Pidie Jaya and Sumba. The findings showthat teachers use interpersonal (IPS) and instructional (IS) strategies in the negotiation process. In Pidie Jaya, IPS strategies consist of the use of local languages and the help of local people. Meanwhile, IS strategies comprise learning groups and introduction to learning activities. In Sumba, teachers make language adjustment and establish rapport and informal communication as IPS strategies and they carry out buddy teaching and assign homework as IS strategies. This study contributes to the intercultural approach to designing English Language Education programs for remote areas. Keywords: EFL, remote areas, negotiation of learning STRATEGI GURU PRAJABATAN DALAM NEGOSIASI PEMBELAJARAN BAHASA INGGRIS DI DAERAH TERPENCIL Abstrak Kondisi dan fasilitas kelas Bahasa Inggris di daerah terpencil mendorong adanya negosiasi pembelajaran untuk menyelesaikan masalah.

Authors: Opipari-Arrigan Lisa , Dykes Dana M H , Saeed Shehzad A , Thakkar Sunny , Burns Lisa , Chini Barbara A , McPhail Gary L , Eslick Ian , Margolis Peter A , Kaplan Heather C
Published: August 2018

BACKGROUND

Mobile health (mHealth) technology has the potential to support the Chronic Care Model’s vision of closed feedback loops and patient-clinician partnerships.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and short-term impact of an electronic health record–linked mHealth platform (Orchestra) supporting patient and clinician collaboration through real-time, bidirectional data sharing.

METHODS

We conducted a 6-month prospective, pre-post, proof-of-concept study of Orchestra among patients and parents in the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and cystic fibrosis (CF) clinics. Participants and clinicians used Orchestra during and between visits to complete and view patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures and previsit plans. Surveys completed at baseline and at 3- and 6-month follow-up visits plus data from the platform were used to assess outcomes including PRO completion rates, weekly platform use, disease self-efficacy, and impact on care. Analyses included descriptive statistics; pre-post comparisons; Pearson correlations; and, if applicable, effect sizes.

RESULTS

We enrolled 92 participants (CF: n=52 and IBD: n=40), and 73% (67/92) completed the study. Average PRO completion was 61%, and average weekly platform use was 80%. Participants reported improvement in self-efficacy from baseline to 6 months (7.90 to 8.44; P=.006). At 6 months, most participants reported that the platform was useful (36/40, 90%) and had a positive impact on their care, including improved visit quality (33/40, 83%), visit collaboration (35/40, 88%), and visit preparation (31/40, 78%). PRO completion was positively associated with multiple indicators of care impact at 3 and 6 months.

CONCLUSIONS

Use of an mHealth tool to support closed feedback loops through real-time data sharing and patient-clinician collaboration is feasible and shows indications of acceptability and promise as a strategy for improving pediatric chronic illness management.

Published: August 2018

Este estudio se propone revisar la participación de las mujeres en la gestión de las universidades públicas chilenas durante el año 2014 y analizar techos de cristal que impiden su ascenso. De 847 cargos directivos, 206 son ocupados por mujeres (24,3%): esta participación se concentra en decanaturas o direcciones de departamento, y resulta baja en los niveles superiores. A través de un modelo logit, se mide su desempeño mediante variables de años de acreditación, presencia en ranking QS e indicadores financieros. Se establece que no hay significancia estadística que permita inferir que el desempeño de las universidades depende de la presencia de mujeres u hombres en la gestión.

Published: August 2018

Las funciones docentes en las instituciones de educación superior se han diversificado para mejorar la terminalidad y prevenir el rezago académico. Si bien la tutoría ha sido hasta el momento la estrategia por excelencia, existen otras funciones docentes como la supervisión, la asesoría, la orientación educativa, el coaching educativo y, en especial, la mentoría, que ha sido poco empleada en el contexto educativo local. El propósito de este artículo es conceptualizar de manera teórica estas funciones docentes para diferenciarlas y mostrar cómo pueden complementarse. Se argumenta sobre el valor de la mentoría en la formación de los estudiantes y se concluye que es necesario incorporarla en las instituciones de educación superior, debido a su potencial para promover el logro académico.

Authors: Quiroga Marta , Aravena Felipe
Published: August 2018

El propósito de esta investigación es analizar la recolección de datos que realizan los directivos docentes y cómo influye esta información en el diseño de planes de mejoramiento educativo. Mediante un estudio cuantitativo de carácter exploratorio-descriptivo, se tradujo y validó una encuesta de autoevaluación de recolección de datos que se aplicó a un grupo de 24 directivos. Los resultados muestran que los directores recolectan preferentemente datos sobre el comportamiento de los alumnos, sobre la relación escuela-familia y sobre las prácticas de enseñanza de los profesores. Se concluye que los directores cuentan con pocos datos del núcleo pedagógico, lo que impide que los planes de mejoramiento logren cambios o mejoras en el aula.

Almost Quantum Correlations are Inconsistent with Specker's Principle
Authors: Gonda Tomáš , Kunjwal Ravi , Schmid David , Wolfe Elie , Sainz Ana Belén
Published: August 2018

Ernst Specker considered a particular feature of quantum theory to be especially fundamental, namely that pairwise joint measurability of sharp measurements implies their global joint measurability (vimeo.com/52923835). To date, Specker's principle seemed incapable of singling out quantum theory from the space of all general probabilistic theories. In particular, its well-known consequence for experimental statistics, the principle of consistent exclusivity, does not rule out the set of correlations known as almost quantum, which is strictly larger than the set of quantum correlations. Here we show that, contrary to the popular belief, Specker's principle cannot be satisfied in any theory that yields almost quantum correlations.
GENERATION-Z BUYING BEHAVIOUR IN INDONESIA: OPPORTUNITIES FOR RETAIL BUSINESSES
Authors: Simangunsong Eliot
Published: August 2018

Abstract. Advances in information and communication technology have caused two major changes in the business world. Firstly, they have caused a wave of new companies emerge that base their business models on the internet. Secondly, they have given rise to the birth of a new group of buyers, known as Generation-Z, who level of expectation and response to consumption are different. Both of these changes -- in business model and in consumption behaviour -- have broad impacts on how companies connect with their business partners and customers. The main purpose of this study is to investigate Generation-Z’s buying behaviour and how this knowledge helps to bring new opportunities for retail business. We applied a qualitative research method through deep interview of 23 respondents.  This study finds that Generation-Z customers in Indonesia have a strong tendency to shop online; they show distinctive behaviours particularly when shopping for clothes and food & beverage. The demographic bonus that Indonesia has enjoyed since 2012 also highlights how this generation is important in business environment in the country

COMMUNITY-BASED ENTREPRENEURSHIP: A COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT MODEL TO BOOST ENTREPRENEURIAL COMMITMENT IN RURAL MICRO ENTERPRISES
Authors: Purusottama Ambara , Trilaksono Teddy , Soehadi Agus W.
Published: August 2018

Abstract. Micro enterprises (MEs) have been proven to be significant contributors to the national economy, particularly for marginal communities. However, only a few programs are aimed to encourage ME improvement, especially in rural areas. The community-based entrepreneurship (CBE) program led by higher education institutions has been recognized as an effective instrument to accelerate capacity building for marginal communities. This research aims to determine the effectiveness of this program in boosting entrepreneurial commitment of rural MEs to help them develop their business. Applying the theory of planned behavior (TPB) framework, this research applies a direct survey to respondents from rural MEs. Then to analyze both data and output, this study applies PLS-SEM tool with SmartPLS software. Results reveal that social factors (social pressure and environmental influence) do not incline rural ME entrepreneurs to develop their business. Attitude factors (entrepreneurial benefit and willingness to take a risk) become the most dominant variables, and consistently have an impact on rural ME entrepreneurs in developing their business. To implement the business development of rural ME, perceived behavioral control becomes a main determinant. Demographic profiles (age, gender, and eduction) is also heavily as influential factors.

AS FAZENDAS DISTÓPICAS DE GEORGE ORWELL E CHICO BUARQUE: TRANSFIGURAÇÕES FICCIONAIS DO AUTORITARISMO
Authors: Giroldo Ramiro , Cacho de Souza Rebeca
Published: August 2018

O texto tem como objetivo discutir de que forma as noções de utopia e distopia podem ser ficcionalmente transfiguradas em diferentes contextos, bem como as mudanças dessas noções de acordo com cada tempo e lugar. Seus objetos são duas obras de momentos e lugares diferentes: A Revolução dos Bichos, de George Orwell (1945), e Fazenda Modelo, de Chico Buarque (1976). Nelas, respectivamente, é possível perceber a alusão ao período da Revolução Russa e ao período ditatorial no Brasil. A análise busca discutir a relação intertextual, abordando: os títulos semelhantes, os ambientes ficcionais de exploração animal e a crítica social que se encontra no cerne da discussão de ambas as obras em seus quadros imaginários utópicos/distópicos. Fornecerão embasamento Ernst Bloch (2005), acerca da utopia, Eric Hobsbawn (1995), sobre a História, e Mary Elizabeth Ginway (2005), no que cabe à leitura comparada das obras em pauta.
A A DANÇA DA LEVEZA EM MARCELINO FREIRE
Authors: Gomes-Godoi Natalia Guerra Brisola , Brito Luciana
Published: August 2018

No livro Seis propostas para o próximo milênio (1988), encontramos as características literárias que, segundo Italo Calvino, persistiriam em meio a todas as mudanças de visão e comportamento que poderiam acontecer a partir dos anos 2000. Entre elas está a leveza, elemento responsável por combater o peso do viver. À primeira vista, ela parece se opor à descrição da literatura brasileira contemporânea: forte, densa, violenta. O presente trabalho pretende demonstrar, contudo, que pontos de leveza podem se revelar em nossa produção literária, usando como ilustração o conto “Balé” (2003) de Marcelino Freire, no qual vemos certo diálogo com o romance O barão nas árvores (1957) do próprio Calvino.

Published: August 2018

In the aftermath of major corporate financial scandals, corporate governance and internal control frameworks have been extensively developed and adopted by corporations worldwide. This study investigates the importance of internal audit in corporate governance and, simultaneously, the degree of importance of the internal auditor regarding corporate governance. An empirical survey was conducted by distributing a questionnaire in Greek firms listed on the Athens Stock Exchange. Regression analysis is used in order to illustrate the gathered information. The findings indicate that internal audit has a great impact on the effectiveness of corporate governance. More particularly, internal audit quality and internal audit senior management support are statistically significantly associated with enhanced corporate governance effectiveness, in contrast to the audit committee independence which is not statistically significant.
The effect of coal ratio on the high-lead slag reduction process
Authors: Zhang Z. , Li W. , Zhan J.
Published: August 2018

The effect of coal ratio on the high-lead slag reduction was reported in this article. First, the phase diagrams of the PbOFeO- SiO2-2%CaO-10%ZnO slag system at various temperatures and coal ratios were thermodynamically constructed. Next, the density, the melting temperature, the viscosity, the chemical composition and the phase transformation of the reduced slag were investigated. The thermodynamic results indicated that the variation of coal ratio could affect the chemical composition of the reduced slag, which led the physical properties of the reduced slag to change further. The experimental results illustrated that the content of lead and copper in the reduced slag decreased, while the contents of iron, silicon, calcium and zinc in the reduced slag increased as the coal ratio increased, which led the density and viscosity of the reduced slag to decrease further. The melting temperature of the reduced slag increased sharply when the coal ratio varied in the range of 1.5% to 3%. The mineralogy of the reduced slag indicated that lead mainly existed in the reduced slag in the form of metallic lead, while the iron and zinc were mainly enriched in the reduced slag in the form of a silicate phase. The industrial verification test results demonstrated that the average recovery rate of the lead exceeded 96.0%, the average lead content in the reduced slag was below 2.0% and the average fume rate was approximately 12.0%.

Authors: Gao J. , Xu J. , Yang B. , Kong L. , Xu B. , You Y.
Published: August 2018

A new experimental method for determining vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) of binary alloys was designed in this study. The VLE data of Pb-Sn and Sb-Sn alloys were determined by using this new method. The experimental data passed the thermodynamic consistency test (Van Ness test), and the y(MAD) was 0.4066 and 0.6667, respectively, indicating that the experimental method is correct and reliable. The activity coefficient of Pb-Sn and Sb-Sn alloys was calculated by using the molecular interaction volume model (MIVM). The maximum average relative deviation Si and maximum average standard deviation Si* are ?1.34% and ?0.009, respectively, which indicates that the calculation of the activity coefficient of the Pb- Sn and Sb-Sn alloys by MIVM is reliable. The VLE data of Pb-Sn and Sb-Sn alloys were calculated based on the VLE theory and MIVM, and the calculated results agreed well with the experimental VLE data. The VLE phase diagrams of Pb-Sn and Sb-Sn alloys were also established in this study. The VLE phase diagrams offer a valid and intuitive way to analyze the product compositions? dependence of temperature and pressure during the process of vacuum distillation. This will have immense significance in guiding the actual production of vacuum metallurgy.

Menentukan Nilai Eigen Tak Dominan Suatu Matriks Semi Definit dan Indefinit Menggunakan Metode Kuasa Invers dengan Shift
Authors: Bijaksana Arif , Suryani Irma
Published: August 2018

Makalah ini menggunakan metode kuasa invers dengan shift. Metode kuasa invers dengan shift merupakan suatu metode untuk mengaproksimasi nilai eigen tak dominan dan vektor eigennya dari suatu matriks. Nilai eigen dikatakan tak dominan jika ada salah satu nilai mutlak terkecil dari nilai mutlak eigen lainnya. Hasil yang diperoleh yaitu nilai eigen tak dominan dari matriks semi definit adalah 0. Pada matriks indefinit diperoleh nilai eigen tak dominan adalah -0,5828 . Nilai shift sangat bepengaruh terhadap nilai eigen tak dominan yang dihasilkan. Semakin nilai shift mendekati nilai eigen tak dominan, maka hampiran nilai eigen tak dominan semakin mendekati nilai eigen tak dominan yang eksak. Sehingga lebih baik jika nilai shift yang diperkirakan sangat mendekati nilai eigen tak dominan.

LIDERANÇA E CLIMA ORGANIZACIONAL: UM ESTUDO EXPLORATÓRIO DESTA RELAÇÃO EM QUATRO AGÊNCIAS BANCÁRIAS
Authors: Soriani Johnny Pasquotto , Andreoli Tais
Published: August 2018

O trabalho teve como objetivo geral avaliar, na percepção dos liderados, o estilo de liderança exercido pelos seus líderes e sua influência sobre o desempenho das suas atividades e, consequentemente, sobre o clima organizacional. Metodologicamente, em primeiro lugar, procedeu-se com a revisão de literatura com as seguintes bases conceituais: liderança, teorias acerca da liderança e clima organizacional. Logo após, com o suporte da fundamentação teórica, utilizando-se de uma abordagem quantitativa, de caráter exploratório, efetuou-se uma pesquisa survey realizada junto a quinze gerentes de quatro agências bancárias localizadas em uma mesma cidade no estado do Paraná, cada uma dessas agências sob a direção de um líder. Trata-se de uma instituição financeira de grande porte, composta por mais de três mil agências comerciais no Brasil. Os resultados demonstram que há certa disparidade entre o estilo de liderança atual e o estilo de liderança desejado, o que pode contribuir para afetar negativamente o clima organizacional.

É notável a precisão da perícia contábil como suporte para auxiliar os magistrados em suas tomadas de decisões em assuntos relacionados a patrimônio e finanças patrimoniais. Desta forma, o laudo se torna importante àquele que precisa de ajuda e instruções técnicas para julgar, logo é imprescindível que o laudo pericial contábil seja qualificado para que seja utilizado como prova. Todavia, torna-se significativa esta pesquisa da qual o objetivo geral foi examinar a qualidade e relevância dos laudos periciais contábeis para os magistrados das varas cíveis de Umuarama e região. Este estudo é exploratório-descritivo, transversal, com abordagem qualitativa, cuja coleta de dados ocorreram durante três meses, sendo de setembro a novembro de 2017, em 17 municípios, em uma amostra de oito juízes, sendo que apenas quatro juízes responderam à pesquisa pessoalmente e um respondeu via internet através do questionário eletrônico estruturado pelo software Survio. O desfecho da pesquisa informa que os magistrados esperam que o perito contador tenha características referentes à índole de um profissional contábil, jamais esquecer da ética e da educação continuada, sempre ter competência para elaborar o laudo. Assim, fica evidente a satisfação do laudo pericial para os magistrados das comarcas das varas cíveis de Umuarama e região.
High-Throughput Screening of Metal–organic Frameworks for Macroscale Heteroepitaxial Alignment

Published: August 2018

The ability to align porous metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) on substrate surfaces on a macroscopic scale is a vital step towards integrating MOFs into functional devices. But macroscale surface alignment of MOF crystals has only been demonstrated in a few cases. To accelerate the materials discovery process, we have developed a high-throughput computational screening algorithm to identify MOFs that are likely to undergo macroscale aligned heterepitaxial growth on a substrate. Screening of thousands of MOF structures by this process can be achieved in a few days on a desktop workstation. The algorithm filters MOFs based on surface chemical compatibility, lattice matching with the substrate, and interfacial bonding. Our method uses a simple new computationally efficient measure of the interfacial energy that considers both bond and defect formation at the interface. Furthermore, we show that this novel descriptor is a better predictor of aligned heteroepitaxial growth than other established interface descriptors, by testing our screening algorithm on a sample set of copper MOFs that have been grown heteroepitaxially on a copper hydroxide surface. Application of the screening process to several MOF databases reveals that the top candidates for aligned growth on copper hydroxide comprise mostly MOFs with rectangular lattice symmetry in the plane of the substrate. This result indicates a substrate-directing effect that could be exploited in targeted synthetic strategies. We also identify that MOFs likely to form aligned heterostructures have broad distributions of in-plane pore sizes and anisotropies. Accordingly, this suggests that aligned MOF thin films with a wide range of properties may be experimentally accessible.

RECONSIDERANDO ROBERT COVER: O DIREITO ENTRE SIGNIFICADO E VIOLÊNCIA
Authors: Flores Maurício Pedroso
Published: August 2018

O presente artigo busca revisitar as principais teses de Robert Cover, jurista norte-americano pouco conhecido no Brasil e cujo pensamento ainda foi pouco explorado dentro da teoria do direito. Considerando o caráter fragmentado de sua obra, o artigo privilegia dois textos considerados centrais para compreender o autor: Nomos e Narrativa, ensaio onde Cover sugere que a criação de significado jurídico (jurisgenesis) transcende os domínios do Estado, e Violência e a Palavra, texto posterior onde o autor considera a indissociabilidade entre a interpretação jurídica e violência. Esses ensaios colocam Cover perante um dilema entre produção e eliminação de significados jurídicos.
