Customize your .Rprofile and Keep Your Workspace Clean
Authors: Turner Stephen
Published: December 2024

Like your .bashrc, .vimrc, or many other dotfiles you may have in your home directory, your .Rprofile is sourced every time you start an R session. On Mac and Linux, this file is usually located in ~/.Rprofile. On Windows it's buried somewhere in the R program files. Over the years I've grown and pruned my .Rprofile to set various options and define various "utility" functions I use frequently at the interactive prompt.

A framework for planning sample sizes regarding prediction intervals of the normal mean using R shiny apps
Authors: Luh Wei-Ming , Guo Jiin-Huarng
Published: December 2024

Replication is a core principle for research, and the recent recognition of the importance of constructing prediction intervals for precise replications highlights the need for robust sample-size planning methodologies. However, methodological and technical complexities often hinder researchers from efficiently achieving this task. This study addresses this challenge by developing five R Shiny apps specifically tailored to determine sample sizes concerning prediction intervals for the mean of the normal distribution. Two measures of precision, absolute and relative widths, are considered. Additionally, the apps consider unequal sampling unit costs and sample size allocations to achieve optimal results by exhaustive search. Simulation results validate the proposed methodology, demonstrating favorable coverage rates. Two illustrative examples of one-sample and two-sample problems showcase these apps’ versatility and user-friendly nature, providing researchers with a valid and straightforward approach for systematically planning sample sizes.
How large must an associational mean difference be to support a causal effect?
Authors: Höfler Michael , Pronizius Ekaterina , Buchanan Erin
Published: December 2024

An observational study might support a causal claim if the association found cannot be explained by bias due to unconsidered confounders. This bias depends on how strongly the common predisposition, a summary of unconsidered confounders, is related to the factor and the outcome. For a positive effect to be supported, the product of these two relations must be smaller than the left boundary of the confidence interval for, e.g., a standardised mean difference (d). We suggest means to derive heuristics for how large this product must be to serve as a confirmatory threshold. We also provide non-technical, visual means to express researchers’ assumptions on the two relations to assess whether a finding on d is explainable by omitted confounders. The ViSe tool, available as an R package and Shiny application, allows users to choose between various effect sizes and apply it to their own data or published summary results.

The relationship between Future Education Orientation (FEO) and Parenting Styles (PS) and self-efficacy among Chinese youth athletes
Authors: Chen Zhengtian , Li Shuting , Tang Yuanchao
Published: December 2024

This study delves into the intricate relationship between future educational orientation (FEO), parenting styles (PS), and self-efficacy (SE) among Chinese adolescent athletes. The research encompassed a sample of registered athletes hailing from Guangxi Province, China. Utilizing a convenience sampling approach, a comprehensive survey was conducted, distributing 400 questionnaires across 24 athlete teams registered with the Guangxi Sports Bureau. The survey was administered via the Chinese SO JUMP platform, a digital tool facilitating research data collection. To measure the constructs of parenting styles (PS), self-efficacy (SE), and future educational orientation (FEO), we employed well-established scales. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was constructed using Smart-PLS to analyze the data. However, the path coefficient for parenting styles (PS) did not yield robust results, suggesting that this study could not conclusively establish a significant influence of PS on FEO. The findings revealed no discernible gender-based disparities in future educational orientation (FEO) among the 384 surveyed Chinese adolescent athletes. Nevertheless, the study robustly demonstrated a pronounced impact of self-efficacy (SE) on FEO within this demographic.

Authors: Iara Brasileiro  , Elaine Gomes Borges
Published: December 2024

O termo "turismo regenerativo" está se tornando cada vez mais relevante no debate sobre o futuro do turismo. Essa abordagem visa não apenas minimizar impactos negativos, mas também promover a restauração e o bem-estar dos ecossistemas e das comunidades. Enquanto a sustentabilidade busca equilibrar o uso dos recursos naturais, o turismo regenerativo, baseado no pensamento regenerativo, vai além, reconhecendo a interconexão de todos os seres vivos e a importância do bem-estar global. A pandemia de COVID-19 destacou a necessidade de repensar o papel do turismo na sociedade e adotar um pensamento mais sistêmico e integrado. A regeneração requer uma mudança de paradigma, superando o pensamento mecanicista e promovendo uma abordagem mais holística para garantir um futuro sustentável e próspero. Ao "regenerar" nossa forma de pensar e agir, podemos construir relacionamentos mais saudáveis com a natureza e promover um turismo mais equilibrado e positivo para o planeta.

Effectiveness of Thiamethoxam Gel Bait Against the Black Crazy Ant, Paratrechina longicornis (Latrielle)
Authors: Lit Jr I.L. , Navasero M.V.
Published: December 2024

The efficacy of thiamethoxam gel bait was tested against the black crazy ant [Paratrechina longicornis (Latreille)] using laboratory colonies. Bait equivalent to 100 ppm was offered to colonies with an initial colony index of at least 12. Orientation, visits, changes in foraging activity, agitation or other similar behavioral responses and mortality of brood, workers and queens were monitored up to 72 hrs after bait. Results showed that the black crazy ants were attracted to the gel bait with several foraging workers aggregating at the baits within minutes after introduction. Colony elimination was achieved after a week in the second trial but it took two weeks during the first trial. The bait effectively reduced ant trails and activity, and adversely dropped colony index within a day. Queens, as expected, were the last to die in a colony.

In separate preliminary tests, colony elimination appears to be possible also for the yellow-red crazy ant Anoplolepls gracil/pes (Smith) and the black ant Dolichoderus thoraclcus (Smith) but not for the tropical fire ant Solenopsis geminata (Fabricius). Further tests for these three ant species need to be conducted for their comparative responses to thiamethoxam gel baits.
The co-evolution of EMNEs and market actors’ institutional works in emerging economies: The case of Korean music agencies in Vietnam
Authors: NGUYEN Arthur
Published: December 2024

Research on the coevolutionary approach of Emerging Economy Multinationals (EMNEs) in emerging economies often silences the evolution of EMNEs’ symbolic capacities during their institutional works to shape local markets. Our research fills this gap by investigating how the institutional works of Korean music agencies (KMAs) co-evolve with the institutional works of the Vietnamese market actors in shaping the K-pop music category. Through a longitudinal single case study filled with archival data and interviews, we identify cultural bricolage and cultural engineering as two dimensions of symbolic capacities the KMAs develop during their institutional works. The more specialized the K-pop music category, the more the KMAs’ symbolic capacities evolve from cultural bricolage to cultural engineering.
The role of headquarters in managing multiple network interdependencies in the context of international sales activities
Authors: SARTORIUS-KHALAPSINA Anastasia
Published: December 2024

Literature on networks often assumes that the role of the corporate HQ is less prominent in multinational enterprises (MNEs). We challenge this logic by examining the role of HQ in the management of multiple network interdependencies. The empirical study presented herein is based on three in-depth case studies of French MNEs in the B2B sector. The findings provide insights into the nature of interdependencies between external customer networks and MNE subunits in the context of international sales activities. They furthermore emphasize the central role of the HQ in coordinating multiple inter-organizational relationships and integrating MNE subunit activities, while arbitrating underlying multilateral collaborative tensions among subsidiaries.

Authors: Muslihi Ahmed , Alghamdi Abdullah , Ahmed Faisal
Published: December 2024

Gamification is one of the effective tools in influencing students' learning experiences and learning outcomes, which has a positive impact on the student's psychological health and emotional well-being. Since emotional intelligence and its variables are one of the requirements for learning English for students in general education stages, examining the mechanisms of the impact of gamification on emotional intelligence is a research priority. Accordingly, the current research came to study the experts' point of view on the uses of gamification to enhance emotional intelligence among general education students studying English as a foreign language. The current research relied on the phenomenological approach based on semi-structured interviews with (6) English language teachers who use gamification tools the most in educational settings. According to the objective analysis processes, the results of the study, as expressed by specialized education experts, reached that the uses of gamification in enhancing emotional intelligence among English language students contributed to enhancing essential emotional skills in emotional intelligence such as: motivation, self-regulation, social skills, and empathy. In contrast, they described to us some of the challenges they face while using gamification, such as: variation in emotional intelligence among students, loss of emotional feeling, anxiety and stress. Therefore, the study recommended the importance of continuing research related to emotional intelligence, educational games and gamification, and applying various measurement tools in this field. As well as working on increasing educational games related to the objectives of the curriculum.

Authors: Daw Mabroka , Abdulhadi Elhadi
Published: December 2024

In the middle and southern part of Libya, groundwater is the main water source for all uses due to the extremely low rainfall distribution. The excessively rapid population growth in the urban areas, coupled with very high temperatures – especially in summer - have adversely impacted the groundwater quantity. To study the situation, this study aimed to determine key factors affecting the water consumption. Specifically, the study assesses the factors that impact on consumption for urban residential water in the study area, using the relationship equation (liner regression equation) between the variables of the study. The Waikato Environment for Knowledge Analysis (WEKA) software workbench was selected as a predictive modeling alternative to linear regression model. The strategy used to determine the best operational procedure included (ARFF) to define the type of data, discerning the optimal dataset size, iteration setting, predictor subsets, target attributes. The WEKA models and settings were tested using multiple data strategies on all available data and in situ data since 1973 to 2023. The optimal settings and the linear regression models were used to determining the effect of some factors on water consumption in study area, also to compare between the actual and predict data and get the error value and then compare the error value with the Kappa statistic value. The result of the linear regression model showed a relationship and positive effect between the water demand (WD) and (temperature T), (summer temperature ST), (population P) and (urban population UP). At the same time no relationship existed between (WD) and (income IN), (water price WP).

Authors: Alshahrani Abdullah
Published: December 2024

The problem in this study is manifested in an attempt to investigate the impact of using the virtual learning environment and its multimedia on supporting interactive learning strategies, especially since in some educational cases, direct sensory experiences cannot be used due to their risks, scarcity, cost, or spatial or temporal distance, and in this case, the need for a virtual learning environment becomes a more effective alternative.
The objectives of the study were identified as: reviewing the virtual simulation models available for teaching students in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and maximizing the benefit of virtual simulation to support interactive learning strategies to overcome educational stereotypes, and actively engage the student and interact with scientific materials, allowing him to make his own decisions, and not just be a passive recipient of information. The study used the descriptive analytical approach.
The most important results of the study were: The necessity of using virtual simulation systems helps support the educational process and increase the efficiency of students, thus improving the educational system as a whole. Virtual simulation can also be used as an interactive educational environment to develop creative thinking by embodying concepts and experimenting with alternative problem-solving strategies. Virtual simulation also provides students with a degree of freedom to enable them to achieve the largest number of creative solutions quickly and appropriately to their abilities. Virtual simulation allows students to control the educational situation to varying degrees.
The most important recommendations of the study were: The necessity of using virtual simulation as a function of the educational environment to train students to think creatively, and the necessity of making the most of the capabilities of modern technology to develop teaching methods that suit students in the modern era.

Delil başlangıcı, Türk hukukunda kabul edilen senetle ispat zorunluğunun önemli bir istisnasıdır. Delil başlangıcının varlığı halinde senetle ispat zorunluluğu ortadan kalkmakta ve diğer delillere başvurulabilmektedir. Delil başlangıcı bir belge niteliğinde olup davada iddia edilen husus kime karşı ileri sürülmüşse ondan veya onun temsilcisinden sadır olmuş olmalıdır. Delil başlangıcı, iddia konusu vakıayı muhtemel göstermelidir.
Kambiyo senetlerinin düzenlenmesiyle alt ilişkideki mevcut borcun yanında, kambiyo ilişkisine dayalı yeni bir borç meydana gelmektedir. Kambiyo senedindeki bu yeni borç ilişkisi, soyutluk ilkesi uyarınca alt ilişkideki borcun varlığından doğrudan etkilenmemektedir. Zamanaşımına uğramış kambiyo senedi için kambiyo borçlusu ifaya zorlanamaz. Soyutluk ilkesi ve kambiyo senedinin alt ilişki hakkında bir bilgi içermemesi sebebiyle kambiyo senetlerinin alt ilişkinin ispatında bir senet olarak kullanılması mümkün değildir.
Zamanaşımına uğramış kambiyo senedinin alt ilişkinin ispatında delil başlangıcı olarak kullanılabileceği, yargı kararları ve doktrinde kabul edilmektedir. Fakat zamanaşımına uğramış kambiyo senetlerinin delil başlangıcı olarak kullanılabilmesi bakımından, delil başlangıcının tüm unsurlarının bulunup bulunmadığı önem taşımaktadır. Kambiyo senedinde imzası bulunan kişiler, her zaman kambiyo alacaklılarıyla bir alt ilişki içinde bulunmadığından, kambiyo senedinin delil değeri ve senedin delil başlangıcı niteliğinde olup olmadığı her bir hukuki ilişki için ayrı ayrı değerlendirmeye tabi tutulmalıdır.
Çalışmamızda delil başlangıcının unsurları olan belge olma, karşı taraftan sadır olma ve muhtemel gösterme unsurlarını haiz olan zamanaşımına uğramış kambiyo senedinin delil değeri, delil başlangıcı olarak kullanılabilmesi ve alt ilişkinin ispatı için tanık deliline başvurulabilmesi inceleme konusu yapılmıştır.

This study aims to analyse the influence of principals' transformational leadership in promoting learning innovation in primary schools. Transformational leadership, which involves motivating, professional development and empowering teachers, is considered to create an environment that supports innovation in learning. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation studies in several primary schools. The results show that principals who apply transformational leadership play an important role in encouraging teachers to innovate in developing learning methods. In addition, principals are also able to build close collaboration between teachers, creating a community that supports each other in an effort to improve the quality of learning. In practice, effective principals are able to overcome challenges in implementing learning innovations, despite resistance to change and limited resources. This research shows that transformational leadership not only impacts on teacher motivation and engagement, but also on improving student learning outcomes. The findings provide a strong basis for the development of transformational leadership in primary schools and its relevance in the evolving educational context. Further research is expected to explore more deeply the external factors that influence the successful implementation of innovations, such as education policy and community support.

Prematuridad como factor de riesgo para el desarrollo de bronquiolitis viral grave en menores de 3 años.Hospital Roberto Gilbert de enero 2017 a diciembre 2019.
Authors: Murillo Pacheco Doménica Daniella , Pinela Albán María José
Published: December 2024

INTRODUCCIÓN: La bronquiolitis es una causa importante de enfermedad respiratoria en menores de 3 años y representa una de las principales causas de hospitalización en bebés y niños menores de 5 años. Los factores de riesgo que llevan al desarrollo de enfermedad severa incluyen: edad menor a 12 semanas, antecedente de prematuridad ≤36 SG y bajo peso al nacimiento; en Ecuador la bronquiolitis aguda se sitúa en el lugar número 9 entre las 10 principales causas de morbilidad infantil en menores de 1 año.
METODOLOGÍA: Es un estudio relacional, de tipo observacional, retrospectivo, transversal bivariado. La información se recolectó de las historias clínicas de pacientes que ingresaron por emergencia y de forma electiva que fueron hospitalizados en el Hospital Roberto Gilbert con diagnóstico definitivo de bronquiolitis en el periodo desde enero del 2017 hasta diciembre del 2019.
RESULTADOS: De los 278 pacientes de la muestra, el 21,58 % (60 pacientes), tienen como antecedente prematuridad, y el 78,42 % (218 pacientes) son niños con bronquiolitis nacidos a término. Del 100% de prematuros, el 53 % desarrolló bronquiolitis moderada, el 32 % bronquiolitis grave y el 15 % bronquiolitis leve.
CONCLUSIÓN: La hipótesis planteada resultó falsa, no encontrando asociación entre el antecedente de prematuridad con el desarrollo de bronquiolitis grave. Los pacientes pediátricos considerados en el estudio desarrollaron bronquiolitis de gravedad similar, siendo esta la más común de carácter moderado, sin importar si fue nacido prematuro o a término.
