This paper presents the Duolingo English Test’s speaking construct, situated within the Duolingo English Test assessment ecosystem (Burstein et al., 2022). We describe how the Duolingo English Test defines, operationalizes, and measures speaking through various speaking-related item types. The operationalization and measurement of the speaking construct includes the item-type design process and automated item generation processes.
The Duolingo English Test and Academic English
Authors: Ishikawa Lynn , Hall Kelley , Settles Burr
Published: July 2023

We describe a two-year study of the relationship between the Duolingo English Test (DET) and the academic English ability of non-native international students at DePauw University. We found DET scores to be significantly correlated with on-campus faculty assessments of English ability for incoming international students (r = 0.62*** for written ability and r = 0.49*** for oral comprehensibility). We also found that DET scores significantly predict the faculty’s decisions to place certain students into academic English support classes. Furthermore, the DET was more strongly associated with faculty assessments than TOEFL® iBT scores. These results were consistent across both cohorts of first-year students studied (2014 and 2015 incoming classes).

The purpose of this research is to find a method of strengthening spiritual capital within Social Service employees in border districts, in order to improve their performance. It was found that inner healing due to bitter experiences in the past can be a way of building spiritual capital. As an employee of the Social Service who provides a lot of assistance to victims of violence, competence in dealing with trauma healing is an important thing that can help carry out their duties. In fact, this trauma healing workshop does not only restore the victims who are assisted, but also builds the character of the employees themselves. In this case, the trauma healing workshop is a means of increasing the potential of spiritual capital because it has a positive impact on strengthening performance. The strengthening of this performance is evident from the effectiveness of the assistance both in terms of the timing of the assistance and the results of the assistance to the victims. This research method is a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach. Data obtained from the results of observations, interviews, and literature studies. The time spent on this research was about a year, and interviews were not only conducted with employees but also leaders and the victims of violence they assisted. Thus, this trauma healing workshop can be said as a means of strengthening spiritual capital because it has a positive impact on improving performance. In general, spiritual capital is associated with spiritual values ​​that are instilled and have a positive impact on the organization. However, in this paper it is found that trauma healing workshops can also be a means of building character for employees which ultimately becomes a spiritual capital that strengthens employee performance.

The government’s program of restructuring state-owned enterprises continues to this day. From 2016 to March 2022, the number of SOE continuously decrease. In March 2022, the number of SOEs only 41 companies. The number of SOEs has reduced by 52.87% from the previous year. The plan will continue in 2023 by cutting 41 companies to 30 companies and operating in 12 clusters. PT Angkasa Pura I and PT Angkasa Pura II are the following plans for restructuring state-owned enterprises. The merger of the two companies is expected to provide synergy opportunities in operational efficiency. The results showed synergy between PT Angkasa Pura I and PT Angkasa Pura II. Based on calculations using the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) method, the company value of PT Angkasa Pura I is IDR 4,169,267 and the company value of PT Angkasa Pura II is IDR 9,784,469 with a total combined company value of IDR 13,953,736. While the value of the two companies when synergizing is IDR 25,051,653. The synergy value obtained for both companies is IDR 11,097,917. By determining the premium value of 40% – 60%, the premium value reaches IDR 1,667,707 – IDR 2,501,560. Therefore, within this premium value range, the purchase price is IDR 5,836,974 – IDR 6,670,827. The merger between PT Angkasa Pura I and PT Angkasa Pura II can potentially maximize shareholder value in the IDR 4,427,090 – IDR 5,260,943 range. Analysis using Discounted Cash Flow for the two companies proves that there is a synergy resulting from the proposed merger between PT Angkasa Pura I and PT Angkasa Pura II.
The Impact of Corporate Political Connections on Analyst Forecast Quality

Published: July 2023

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the companies have significant impact of political connections on analyst forecasts quality. Refer to the literature on relevant analyst information in the past, especially distinguish the information obtained by analysts into public information and private information, and check whether it will affect the quality of analysts’ forecast information. Our empirical results show that there is a significant negative correlation between companies with political ties and the accuracy of analysts' public information. It indicates that when companies have political connections, companies are only willing to disclose information to specific stakeholders, resulting in information asymmetry. Meanwhile, the accuracy of public information obtained by analysts is relatively low, while the accuracy of private information is relatively high for the companies with political connections.

Le gouvernement des Églises dans l’Europe protestante au XIXe siècle
Authors: Harismendy Patrick
Published: July 2023

En 1872, les Églises réformées de France furent autorisées à se réunir en synode général officiel : le premier depuis la Révocation si l’on ne tient pas compte de ceux du Désert. Deux blocs en résultèrent, l’un adoptant Confession de foi (votée en 1872) et système presbytérien-synodal officieux (à partir de 1879), l’autre demeurant presbytérien. Il en fut ainsi jusqu’à la Séparation de 1905. Situation unique dans l’Europe protestante ? non, car l’institutionnalisation de ces synodes révèle cinq dilemmes communs à la plupart des Églises : la place mesurée devant être faite aux pasteurs ; un défi d’uniformisation des rites ; l’adoption de procédures bureaucratiques ; une reformulation théologique de l’expiation ; des polarisations partisanes signifiantes pour dire la place du religieux dans le corps de la Nation. Au total, la forme organisationnelle des Églises (presbytériennes, congrégationalistes, épiscopaliennes) importe autant que leur statut entre pluralisme ou unicité confessionnels. Une attention accrue doit donc être accordée aux cinq grandes variables afin de situer les politiques étatiques et les forces spirituelles en présence ou en travail, en reconsidérant au passage le rôle des scissions, peut-être surévaluées. Il est donc suggéré de réfléchir désormais en termes de régimes d’ecclésiasticité afin, notamment, de reconsidérer les formes chrétiennes identifiées par Ernst Troeltsch, en 1912, et toujours stimulantes : Église, secte et mystique. Les interactions entre ces formes organisent les 14 articles de ce volume.
Déchirures ecclésiastiques dans le canton de Vaud au XIXe siècle
Authors: Reymond Bernard
Published: July 2023

Directement héritière de la Réforme zwinglienne, mais aussi de l’évolution des esprits au XVIIIe siècle et de la mise en place parfois conflictuelle de nouveaux régimes politiques au XIXe, la situation ecclésiastique dans le canton de Vaud est liée pour une large part à l’évolution des relations institutionnelles de l’Église, qualifiée de « nationale » dès 1831, avec l’État, mais aussi à l’apparition de différents mouvements de Réveil. Figure majeure dans cette situation, Alexandre Vinet a prôné conjointement le principe d’une séparation de l’Église et de l’État, qui s’est concrétisée avec la formation en 1847 d’une Église libre, mais restée très minoritaire, et celui d’un « multitudinisme » qui s’est très vite imposé jusque dans l’Église demeurée « nationale » enfin dotée d’un régime synodal en 1863. Les deux Églises en sont venues à la fin du siècle à une situation de coexistence pacifique, voire de collaboration, leurs théologiens et pasteurs se retrouvant dès 1875 dans une Société vaudoise de théologie.
Freedom of Religion but with Exceptions
Authors: Larsen Kurt Ettrup
Published: July 2023

Depuis la Réformation de 1536, le Danemark a été un royaume confessionnel luthérien. Cependant, dès le xviie siècle, des garanties furent octroyées aux réformés et aux catholiques afin de leur permettre de s’assembler, sous certaines conditions. À partir des années 1840, marquées par des mouvements de réveil, des revendications commencèrent à s’exprimer dans ces milieux pour jouir de plus grandes libertés. Plusieurs, regroupés en conventicules, glissèrent vers le mouvement baptiste, se mettant en contravention avec la loi danoise. D’ailleurs, un front unit bientôt les baptistes et le pasteur luthérien N. F. S. Grundtvig (1783-1872) pour plaider en faveur de cette liberté religieuse. Celle-ci advint avec la constitution de 1849 qui introduisit des élections démocratiques et une liberté religieuse ne signifiant néanmoins pas l’égalité des cultes devant la loi. Après 1849, il devint possible pour les baptistes de s’assembler librement, comme pour les catholiques de développer leur action, et pour de nouveaux mouvements tels que les Mormons de conduire leurs entreprises missionnaires. Cependant, demeura une Église établie du Peuple, nantie de nombreux privilèges, au point qu’à la faveur de ses divers mouvements de réveil internes, cette Église regroupait encore 99 % des Danois en 1900.
Sortir du calvinisme d’État au XIXe siècle : les clivages genevois
Authors: Scholl Sarah
Published: July 2023

Les protestants genevois se divisent lors de crises successives occupant tout le xixe siècle, à propos tant des croyances que de l’organisation institutionnelle, du rôle du clergé et de la place de l’Église dans la société. Cet article analyse chacune des phases de ces fractures – le Réveil, la création des Églises libres et la division entre évangéliques et libéraux – en pointant, dans leur contexte, les enjeux sous-jacents. Les principaux conflits concernent l’héritage de Calvin et de sa dogmatique, ainsi que le choc entre tradition biblique et rationalisme, mais le cœur du problème consiste dans la gestion des droits modernes par le protestantisme lui-même. La démocratie et la liberté religieuse doivent-elles être intégrées à l’ecclésiologie et à la pastorale, c’est-à-dire prendre place au sein même de l’Église ? En résulte une vision de la communauté protestante comme englobante, combattue par les tenants du modèle confessant. Cette fracture contribue à mener le canton de Genève vers la séparation des Églises et de l’État en 1907.

Demokrasi merupakan sebuah sistem yang paling banyak dianut pada masa ini. Saat ini, banyak sekali Negara yang menganut sistem demokrasi sebagai sistem pemerintahannya. Demokrasi sering diartikan sebagai penghargaan terhadap hak-hak asasi manusia, partisipasi dalam pengambilan keputusan, dan persamaan hukum. Dalam Islam, demokrasi telah diajarkan Rasulullah SAW. Yaitu dengan musyawarah. Contohnya, pada saat perang badar, beliau mendengarkan saran sahabatnya mengenai lokasi perang walaupun itu bukan pilihan yang yang diajukan olehnya. Rasulullah pun mulai sering melakukan musyawarah bersama sahabat-sahabatnya untuk memutuskan sesuatu. Namun yang terjadi saat ini, banyak orang yang menganggap bahwa sistem demokrasi diadaptasi dari Negara-negara barat, sehingga sistem demokrasi dianggap tidak sesuai dengan kaidah-kaidah Islam.

Although Tartous governorate accounts for only 1% of the total land area of Syria, it recorded the highest burden of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) during the Syrian crisis, with nearly half a million IDPs seeking refuge there in 2014. The sim-ultaneous population growth and economic recession exacerbated the exploitation of natural resources and led to environmental degradation. The study aims to understand the dynamics of land use and land cover change (LULCC) in Tartous from 1987 to 2019 by comparing two periods, be-fore and during the crisis, through the integration of remote sensing and GIS using the change detection-based post-classification comparison technique. The results showed significant LULCC that revealed significant changes during the crisis compared to before. However, most of the changes have negative environmental impacts, especially near built-up areas and in the northeast, where natural vegetation decreased by 40% by 2019, of which about 60% is due to agricultural expansion. Conversely, built-up areas have doubled, from 18 km2 in 1987 to 34 km2 in 2019, mainly at the expense of agricultural land. Meanwhile, agricultural land remained the predominant land use, with almost 74% of the study area reflecting primary economic activity. Nevertheless, a particular expansion was recorded during the crisis compared to before. The study highlights the impact of anthropogenic pressures on the environment, especially during wars. The findings provide important insights for policymakers and researchers concerned with sustainable land management and environmental conservation in war-affected regions. It also recommends developing comprehensive, multi-level plans to address the complex challenges in similar contexts.

Opinion leaders or social influencers possess the conviction of their followers in making personal and professional decisions. Their posts or sharing on social media may strongly influence their followers’ decision to practise some environmental actions in their daily lives. They are often labelled as the current thought leaders among the Millennials. Considering the critical environmental issues faced, many social influencers play important roles to show their willingness to change human destructive behaviours and conserve the environment for the future. Realising their influence on their followers, these environmental influencers relentlessly encourage their followers to support their missions. Thus, the study attempted to profile successful environmental leaders among social influencers from the views of their followers. The study was a qualitative multiple case study on five informants. The informants volunteered to participate and were from 100 university students. They were interviewed in a written semi-structured interview and researchers could reach them if clarification was needed. Data were analysed using thematic analysis. Peer debriefing was used to increase trustworthiness. The findings revealed that effective environmental leaders possessed these criteria: a) credibility; b) generosity; c) responsible creators; d) influential figures; e) trust builders. The informants believed that these social influencers are as real as offline leaders even though they only knew these social influencers in online contexts. The ability of environmental social influencers to reach and convince multiple audiences to participate and support various environmental initiatives via social media platforms made them powerful thought leaders.
