CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY (CSR) SEBAGAI IMPLEMENTASI FIKIH SOSIAL UNTUK PEMBERDAYAAN MASYARAKAT
Authors: Sopyan Yayan 
Published: March 2016

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) as an Implementation of Social Fiqh to Empower Society. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is the responsibility of businesses in their undertakings. CSR in the perspective of social fiqh is no only position as an obligation of business that must be there as a part of social life. The government must support business in implementing CSR from voluntary to mandatory requirements so that the existence of CSR can be felt in reality by society. Optimisation of the CSR function in the supporting the success of development can be undertaken by synergising three potentials, namely tertiary education institutions who have the science, sufficient technology and human resources; government who has the space, society and development plans as well as businesses who possess CSR funding.DOI: 10.15408/ajis.v14i1.1253

Authors: González-Zabala Mayda Patricia , Galvis Lista Ernesto A. , Vera Salazar Pablo Hernán 
Published: March 2016

Este artículo de investigación8 se orienta a establecer si 68 líderes comunales del Distrito de Santa Marta (Magdalena), conoce y accede a servicios de teletrabajo. El objetivo era identificar aspectos que deberían fortalecerse en su proceso de alfabetización digital. Para realizar el estudio se utilizó una metodología de tres etapas. Los principales resultados fueron identificar que el 95% de la población accede a infraestructura de Tecnología de Información, el 67,6% conoce acerca del teletrabajo pero el 45,6% solo utiliza servicios de búsqueda y el 1,5% ha generado algún tipo de ingresos asociado al teletrabajo. Los principales motivos para no hacer uso del teletrabajo son el desconocimiento y el desinterés, aunque reconocen las facilidades que ofrece el Internet.
Cognitive psychology and applied linguistics a timely rapprochement
Authors: Harris Richard Jackson 
Published: March 2016

Abstract: This paper reviews several central theoretical cnstructs in contemporary cognitive psychology and argues that such knowledge can be useful for the applied Iinguist. An example of such a use is then discussed: the study of the way consumers draw inferences about products from advertisements and then remember those inferences as facts. A second example of the influence of the wording of a question on eyewitness memory is also examined.

Concordância verbal, topicalização e posposição de sujeito
Authors: Decat Maria Beatriz Nascimento 
Published: March 2016

Resumo: Neste trabalho, pretendo mostrar que o fenômeno da concordância, verbal em português é melhor descrito em termos da relação tópico/comentário. A partir do exame, em dados da língua oral, da interação da regra de CV com as regras de Topicalizaçao e de Posposição de Sujeito, aventei a hipótese de que a ausência de CV em sentenças com SN posposto (tradicionalmente chamado sujeito) se explica pelo fato de essas sentenças serem constituídas só do comentário, desprovidas, portanto, do tópico, que é aqui estabelecido como o controlador da CV. Em conseqüência da ausência do tópico, a falta de CV revela uma tendência à impessoalização nesse tipo de sentenças.Abstract: I intend to demonstrate, in this paper, that Portuguese Subject-Verb Agreement can be better described in terms of the relationship topic/comment. Based on the examination of the interaction between the Subject-Verb Agreement rule, on the one hand, and the rules of Topicalization and Subject Postposing, on the other hand, in colloquial Brazilian Portuguese, I advanced the following hypothesis: the absence of Subject-Verb Agreement in sentences with a postposed NP (which is, traditionally analyzed as the subject of the sentence) can be explained by the fact that in these sentences all we have is comment; i.e., the topic, which we establish as the controller of Subject-Verb Agreament, is lacking. As a consequence of the absence of topic, lack of Subject-Verb Agreement shows a tendency for the impersonalization of this kind of sentences.

Identifying Ethical Hypernorms For Accounting Educators
Authors: Siegel Philip H. , Mintz Steven , Naser-Tavakolian Mohsen , O'Shaughnessy John 
Published: March 2016

Accounting educators have a unique role in academe because students learn about codes of ethics that will guide their actions as professionals. We identify hypernorms related to internal auditing educators that reflect unethical behaviors believed to be universally unacceptable by that community. We then compare the results to a prior survey of accounting educators and identify ethical principles for accounting academics in their roles as teachers and researchers. The results might help to develop a code of ethics for accounting educators to help them serve as role models for students as they prepare to enter the accounting profession.

A Case Study On The Archer Daniels Midland (ADM) Companys Financial Statement Analysis: Strengths And Weaknesses
Authors: Kang Han B. 
Published: March 2016

This article is a case study that analyzes the Archer Daniels Midland Company’s financial strengths and weaknesses. The ADM is an agricultural food-processing company located in Decatur, Illinois. The firm’s primary industry segments include oilseeds processing, corn processing, agricultural services and other segments, such as food and feed ingredient businesses and financial activities. The study conducts a ratio analysis that compares the ADM’s key ratios to its two competitors - Corn Products International and Bunge - along with the food-processing industry. As far as turnover and return ratios are concerned, the firm seems to outperform its competitors and other firms in the industry, although its profit margins are somewhat lower. When current ratio and beta are compared to the industry average, ADM seems to be less risky. The firm has superior future earnings growth prospects in both agriculture food processing and ethanol fuel businesses. Overall, the firm can be a good investment, considering PE and other valuation ratios are considered.

Sexual Harassment And Public Accounting: Anecdotal Evidence From The Profession
Authors: Miller Gerald J. , Stanko Brian B. , Landgraf Ellen L. 
Published: March 2016

This article reports on anecdotal evidence gathered from a recent survey of women public accounting professionals. Stanko and Schneider (1999) conducted the first national survey on sexual harassment in the public accounting profession and Stanko et al followed up with a more recent 2009 study. In this paper, the anecdotal evidence gathered from the Stanko et al study is reported on. Analysis of written comments is important in that many respondents spent a great deal of time providing comprehensive and concise professional comments on specific recent experiences involving sexual harassment, rather than simply checking a box. The findings of this study show sexual harassment remains a serious concern, and that sexual discrimination in the workplace is a concern as well. Although preventive measures have been put in place, these measures may not be working as well as intended, suggesting that public accounting firms need to revisit this issue to manage risk.
A Study on Management of Non Performing Assets in Priority Sector reference to Indian Bank and Public Sector Banks (PSBs)
Authors: BSR Selvarajan 
Published: March 2016

<p>The problem of NPA is not limited to only Indian public sector banks, but it prevails in the entire banking industry. Major portion of bad debts in Indian Banks arose out of lending to the priority sector at the dictates of politicians and bureaucrats. If only banks had monitored their loans effectively, the bad debt problem could have been contained if not eliminated. The present study has been designed to illustrate the necessity and the nature of the non-performing assets in Indian Bank, Tamil Nadu. Finding out Non Performing Assets –NPA- under the Priority sector lending in Indian Bank and Compare with Public Sector Banks and making appropriate suggestions to avoid future NPAs and to manage existing NPAs in Indian Bank are the other major objectives of this study. The scope of this study covers on the basis: (i) measuring for the banks to avoid future NPAs &amp; to reduce existing NPAs, (ii) guiding for the government in creating &amp; implementing new strategies to control NPAs, (iii) selecting appropriate techniques suited to manage the NPAs and develop a time bound action plan to arrest the growth of NPAs.</p>
Effect of False Confidence on Asset Allocation Decisions of Households
Authors: Chatterjee Swarn 
Published: March 2016

<p>This paper investigates whether false confidence, as characterized by a high level of personal mastery and a low level of intelligence (IQ), results in frequent investor trading and subsequent investor wealth erosion across time. Using the National Longitudinal Survey (NLSY79), change in wealth and asset allocation across time is modeled as a function of various behavioral, socio-economic and demographic variables drawn from prior literature. Findings of this research reveal that false confidence is indeed a predictor of trading activity in individual investment assets, and it also has a negative impact on individual wealth creation across time.</p>

Authors: Manickam Tamilselvan , Madhumitha R 
Published: March 2016

The competence of a financial system is entirely depending upon the stock market efficiency. The gradual growth of equity investor’s participation is inevitable to enrich the overall growth of emerging economies.Hence the necessity is felt to provide an empirical support to the investing community. For the purpose, this study attempts to examine the weak-form efficiency of Indian stock market – National Stock Exchange (NSE). The study has used the daily closing price of the Nifty fifty stocks from 3rdJanuary 2011 to 24thApril 2015. To test the weak form efficiency both parametric and non-parametric tests called Autocorrelation, Augmented Dicky Fuller test, and Runs Test were performed. The study reveals that 39 stocks of NSE-Nifty Fifty are found to be weak form inefficient, so that the investors can formulate trading strategies to gain abnormal returns. The Index and 10 stocks are found to be weak form efficient during the study period since the price series found to be autocorrelation existence.
Analysis of FDA-Approved Orthopaedic Devices and Their Recalls
Authors: Day Charles S. , Park David J. , Rozenshteyn Frederick S. , Owusu-Sarpong Nana , Gonzalez Aldebarani 
Published: March 2016

Background:
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) evaluates medical devices by two main pathways. The more stringent Premarket Approval (PMA) review requires clinical trials, and the Premarket Notification 510(k) process generally exempts devices from clinical trials if they prove to be substantially equivalent to existing devices. We hypothesized that orthopaedic devices are more likely to be cleared through the 510(k) process and thus are more susceptible to being recalled.

Methods:
Using the FDA’s public database, we searched for the following: PMA and 510(k) clearances for orthopaedics and non-orthopaedic specialties, including General & Plastic Surgery, Gastroenterology/Urology, Obstetrics/Gynecology, and Ear Nose & Throat, from 1992 to 2012. Additionally, we searched for all device recall events from 2002 to 2012. For the top-twenty recall companies, we calculated the odds ratio that compares the likelihood of recall for 510(k)-approved devices with that for PMA-approved devices.

Results:
From 1992 to 2012, the proportion of non-orthopaedic devices cleared via the 510(k) process decreased from 91% to 53%. However, that of orthopaedic devices decreased only from 94% to 88%. Furthermore, we found that from 2002 to 2012, the percentage of recalled devices was 17.8% for 510(k)-cleared devices and 1.6% for PMA-approved devices. When stratified on the basis of recall class, the odds ratios were 3.5 for class-I devices, 13.2 for class-II devices, and 8.5 for class-III devices.

Conclusions:
Given that 510(k)-cleared devices were 11.5 times more likely to be recalled than PMA-approved devices, it is concerning that most orthopaedic devices are cleared through the 510(k) process with limited clinical trials data.

Clinical Relevance:
When orthopaedic surgeons are considering using a new device clinically in their patients, it is important for them to consider how the new device was approved by the FDA. If the device was approved by the 510(k) pathway, then it may have been approved without additional clinical studies confirming efficacy or safety.
A Vessel-Preserving Surgical Hip Dislocation Through a Modified Posterior Approach
Authors: Sculco Peter K. , Lazaro Lionel E. , Su Edwin P. , Klinger Craig E. , Dyke Jonathan P. , Helfet David L. , Lorich Dean G. 
Published: March 2016

Background:
Surgical hip dislocation allows circumferential access to the femoral head and acetabulum and is utilized in the treatment of intra-articular hip disorders. Surgical hip dislocation is currently performed with a trochanteric osteotomy that reliably preserves the femoral head arterial supply; however, trochanteric nonunion or painful hardware requiring removal may occur. In a cadaveric model, using gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and gross dissection, we evaluated whether modifications to the posterior approach preserve the femoral head arterial supply after a posterior surgical hip dislocation.

Methods:
In eight fresh-frozen pelvic specimens, a surgical hip dislocation was performed through the posterolateral approach with modifications in the tenotomy of the short external rotators and a capsulotomy designed to preserve the medial femoral circumflex artery (MFCA). Modifications included tenotomies of the quadratus femoris, conjoined tendon of the short external rotators, and obturator externus made 2.5 cm medial to their insertion on the greater trochanter and a T-type capsulotomy originating below the cut edge of the obturator externus tendon and continuing circumferentially along the acetabular rim. After hip dislocation, the MFCA was cannulated and MRI scans were acquired before and after gadolinium enhancement for evaluation of femoral head perfusion, with the contralateral hip, which was left intact, used as a control. Anatomic gross dissection was performed after the injection of polyurethane in the MFCA and confirmed MFCA vessel integrity.

Results:
Quantitative MRI showed that the operatively treated hip retained a mean perfusion (and standard deviation) of 95.6% ± 9.7% in the femoral head and 94.7% ± 21.5% in the femoral head-neck junction compared with the control hip (p = 0.66 and p = 0.85, respectively). Dissection after polyurethane injection confirmed that the superior retinacular and inferior retinacular arteries entering the femoral head were intact in all specimens.

Conclusions:
In a cadaveric model using gadolinium-enhanced MRI, we found that standardized modifications to the posterior approach, specifically with regard to the location of the short external rotator tenotomy and capsulotomy, successfully preserved the femoral head arterial supply after posterior surgical hip dislocation.

Clinical Relevance:
While further research is necessary before these modifications can be recommended for widespread clinical use, the results of this study suggest the extracapsular vascular anatomy can be safely preserved during posterior surgical hip dislocation.
Quality Measures in Upper Limb Surgery
Authors: Kamal Robin N. , Ring David , Akelman Edward , Yao Jeffrey , Ruch David S. , Richard Marc , Ladd Amy , Got Christopher , Blazar Philip , Kakar Sanjeev 
Published: March 2016

Background:
Quality measures are now commonplace and are increasingly tied to financial incentives. We reviewed the existing quality measures that address the upper limb and tested the null hypothesis that structure (capacity to deliver care), process (appropriate care), and outcome (the result of care) measures are equally represented.

Methods:
We systematically reviewed MEDLINE/PubMed, Embase, Google Scholar, the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons Clinical Practice Guidelines, the National Quality Forum, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, and the Physician Quality Reporting System for quality measures addressing upper limb surgery. Measures were characterized as structure, process, or outcome measures and were categorized according to their developer and their National Strategy for Quality Improvement in Health Care (National Quality Strategy) priority as articulated by the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.

Results:
We identified 134 quality measures addressing the upper limb: 131 (98%) process and three (2%) outcome measures. The majority of the process measures address the National Quality Strategy priority of effective clinical care (90%), with the remainder addressing communication and care coordination (5%), person and caregiver-centered experience and outcomes (4%), and community/population health (1%).

Conclusions:
Our review identified opportunities to develop more measures in the structure and outcome domains as well as measures addressing patient and family engagement, public health, safety, care coordination, and efficient use of resources. The most common existing measures—process measures addressing care—might not be the best measures of upper limb surgery quality given the relative lack of evidence for their use in care improvement.
