Authors: Putera Prakoso Bhairawa , Widianingsih Ida , Suryanto Suryanto , Ningrum Sinta , Rianto Yan 
Published: November 2023

Purpose
This paper aims to discuss the emergence of science, technology and innovation (STI) institutions in Indonesia during the Dutch East Indies colonial period in 1778–1941. The emergence of these institutions reflected the dynamics of science and technology development and innovation in that era.

Design/methodology/approach
This paper navigates a historiographical approach. Data collection techniques use “secondary data research,” with archival investigation published by official sources in the Dutch East Indies in the 18th and 19th centuries as well as other reference sources, and data analysis techniques use “supplementary analysis.”

Findings
This research indicates that the STI institution during the Dutch East Indies colonial period was formed to maximize the natural resources of the Dutch East Indies. The STI institution at that time was constructed as part of Buitenzorg’s Plantentuin the lands, plantations, solutions for health, astronomy, geology, forestry and culture.

Research limitations/implications
The limitations of this research, as well as future research. Relying too much on “secondary data” is a limitation of this study. Therefore, it is necessary to collect primary data through in-depth interviews with historical scientists studying STIs in Indonesia in future research.

Originality/value
This study, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, considered the first study, reveals the dynamics of STI in Indonesia during the Dutch East Indies colonial era by examining the dynamics of the institution. In addition, this study succeeded in dividing five institutional STI clusters in the Dutch East Indies Colonial period 1778–1941, namely, units/institutions formed as part of Planuntungin te Buitenzorg; units/institutions formed based on plantations, initiated by private plantations to find solutions to the pests and diseases that attack their crops; units/institutions formed to seek solutions in the health sector; units/institutions formed based on astronomy, geology and forestry; and units/ institutions regarded as scientific councils/associations.

PurposeThis study aims to investigate the relationship between talent management, organizational commitment and turnover intention. The moderating role of gender and experience in relationships was explored.Design/methodology/approachA conceptual model was developed, and relationships were studied by collecting data from 392 faculty members working in higher educational institutions (HEIs) in southern India. After checking the instrument’s psychometric properties using the LISREL package of structural equation modeling, data were analyzed using Hayes’s PROCESS macros.FindingsThe results revealed that talent recruitment strategies positively predict organizational commitment and negatively predict turnover intention; organizational commitment mediates the relationship between talent management and turnover intention. Further, the results documented that experience (first moderator) and gender of faculty members (second moderator) influenced the relationship between talent management and organizational commitment and organizational commitment and turnover intention.Practical implicationsThe outcomes of this research are helpful for the administrators of HEIs to strategize to attract and retain talented faculty to maintain sustained competitive advantage. This research also helps to understand gender differences that exist in talent management and retention and organizational commitment in HEIs.Originality/valueThe three-way interactions between talent management, gender and experience in influencing organizational commitment and turnover intentions is a novel idea that contributes to the talent management literature – the relationship between talent recruitment strategies and talent engagement. The implications for talent management theory and practice are discussed.
Impact of reinforcement proportions on mechanical properties and micro-structure of modified Al2O3-LM6 cast composites synthesize at self-pouring temperature: optimization through mixture design of experiment (DoE)
Authors: Singh Devendra Pratap , Dwivedi Vijay Kumar , Agarwal Mayank 
Published: November 2023

Purpose
The purpose of this study is to investigate and evaluate the impact of varying proportions of reinforcement on the mechanical properties of a modified Al2O3-LM6 cast composite under self-pouring temperature conditions. This study aims to determine the optimal mixture proportion of fine powders of Al, Si and xAl2O3 (with x values of 2%, 3% and 4%) through the application of design of experiment (DoE) and statistical analysis using the Minitab software. This study also involved evaluating the microstructural estimation and other physical properties of the cast composite to understand the combined effect of the reinforcement proportion on the material’s properties.

Design/methodology/approach
The researchers initially mixed the powders through ball milling and then compacted the moisture-free powder mix in a closed steel die. The resulting preforms were heated at the self-pouring temperature in an inert environment to fabricate the final cast composite. By applying DoE and performing an analysis of variance (ANOVA), the researchers sought to optimize the mixture proportion that would yield the best mechanical properties.

Findings
The experimental results indicated that a mixture combination of 83.5% Al blended with 12.5% Si and 4% Al2O3 led to the greatest improvement in mechanical properties, specifically in terms of increased density, hardness and impact strength. The ANOVA further supported the interaction effect of each processing parameter on the observed results. The results of this study offer valuable insights for the fabrication of modified Al2O3-LM6 cast composites under self-pouring temperature conditions. The identified optimal mixture proportion provides guidance for manufacturing processes and material selection to achieve improved mechanical properties in similar applications.

Originality/value
This study focuses on a specific composite material consisting of modified Al2O3 and LM6. Although Al2O3 and LM6 have been studied individually in various contexts, the combination of these materials and their impact on mechanical properties under self-pouring temperature conditions is a novel aspect of this research. The researchers use DoE methodology, along with statistical analysis using Minitab software, to optimize the mixture proportion and analyze the data. This systematic approach allows for a comprehensive exploration of the parameter space and the identification of significant factors that influence the mechanical properties of the composite.
Numerical simulation of fracking and gas production in shale gas reservoirs

Published: November 2023

AbstractIn this work, different stages of gas production in shale reservoirs are modelled. First, hydraulic fracturing is considered by injecting water at high pressures to crack the formation and increase the flow capacity of the reservoir. During the fluid injection, rock properties are modified and water appears in the stimulated area. Then, these changes can be detected through seismic monitoring. Finally, once the fracking stage is completed, the simulation of gas production begins. The simultaneous gas–water flow in the injection and production stages is modelled using the Black‐Oil formulation. Furthermore, a fracture criterion is applied under the hypothesis of constant temperature and constant stress field in this first analysis of the problem. The numerical simulations allow us to analyse the propagation of the fracture and the behaviour of the pore pressure and water saturation in the stimulated area. The advance of the fracturing fluid is delayed in relation to the breakdown of the rock. Besides, the presence of new fractures is detected by applying a poroviscoelastic wave propagation simulator that considers mesoscopic losses induced by heterogeneities in rock and fluids. After the fracture network is created, the injection well becomes a producer, allowing the extraction of gas and the flowback of the injected fluid. The simulated gas flow rates are compared with those obtained by a simplified single‐phase analytical solution used for practical applications, achieving optimum matching results.
Covenant violation and operational efficiency

Published: November 2023

AbstractWe examine the impact of covenant violation on corporate operational efficiency. Using an aggregate measure of operational efficiency developed by Demerjian et al. (Management Science, 58, 2012, 1229–1248), we provide strong empirical evidence that covenant violations hinder firms from achieving operational efficiency. Our finding is robust to alternative definitions of operational efficiency and various model specifications to address potential endogeneity issues. Further analyses show that lower operational efficiency is attributable to covenant‐violating firms' under‐investments in capital and labour. In addition, the negative effect of covenant violation on operational efficiency is not universally the same, and is less evident in violating firms with greater agency problems.

AbstractAimsTo test differential outcomes between three 6‐month text‐messaging interventions to reduce at‐risk drinking in help‐seeking adults.DesignA three‐arm single‐blind randomized controlled trial with 1‐, 3‐, 6‐ and 12‐month follow‐ups.SettingUnited States. A fully remote trial without human contact, with participants recruited primarily via social media outlets.ParticipantsSeven hundred and twenty‐three adults (mean = 39.9 years, standard deviation = 10.0; 62.5% female) seeking to reduce their drinking were allocated to 6 months of baseline ‘tailored statically’ messaging (TS; n = 240), ‘tailored adaptive’ messaging (TA; n = 239) or ‘drink tracking’ messaging (DT; n = 244).InterventionsTS consisted of daily text messages to reduce harmful drinking that were tailored to demographics and alcohol use. TA consisted of daily, tailored text messages that were also adapted based on goal achievement and proactive prompts. DT consisted of a weekly assessment for self‐reported drinking over the past 7 days.MeasurementsThe primary outcome measure was weekly sum of standard drinks (SSD) at 6‐month follow‐up. Secondary outcome measures included drinks per drinking day (DDD), number of drinking days (NDD) per week and heavy drinking days (HDD) at 1‐, 3‐, 6‐ and 12‐month follow‐ups.FindingsAt 6 months, compared with DT, TA resulted in significant SSD reductions of 16.2 (from 28.7 to 12.5) drinks [adjusted risk ratio (aRR) = 0.80, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.71, 0.91] using intent‐to‐treat analysis. TA also resulted in significant improvements in DDD (aRR = 0.84; 95% CI = 0.77–0.92) and drinking days per week (b = −0.39; 95% CI = −0.67, –0.10), but not HDD compared with DT at 6 months. TA was not significantly different from TS at any time‐point, except DDD at 6 months. All groups made improvements in SSD at 12‐month follow‐up compared with baseline with an average reduction of 12.9 drinks per week across groups.ConclusionsAutomated tailored mobile messaging interventions are scalable solutions that can reduce weekly alcohol consumption in remote help‐seeking drinkers over time.
Revisiting the Mackey Childbirth Satisfaction Rating Scale: Spanish adaptation, factor analysis, and sources of construct validity

Published: November 2023

AbstractBackgroundWomen's dissatisfaction with perinatal health care services is associated with poor postpartum outcomes for the mother and the baby. The Mackey Childbirth Satisfaction Rating Scale is a frequently used measure of women's childbirth satisfaction. However, its factor structure has been inconsistent across investigations. The goal of this study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the scale (i.e., factor structure and sources of validity evidence).MethodsThis study is a descriptive prospective investigation. Participants included 106 pregnant women (mean age = 31.86, SD = 4.12) recruited from a public university hospital situated in South Madrid. Sources of construct validity of the Mackey were explored with the Women's View of Birth Labor Satisfaction Questionnaire. Sources of criterion validity were investigated with measures of pain (labor, delivery, and just after birth) and post‐traumatic stress symptoms.ResultsMinor adaptations in item distribution resulted in an adequate fit of the original six‐factor solution of the Mackey scale (i.e., oneself, the partner, the baby, the nurse, the physician, and overall satisfaction). Sources of validity evidence supported the construct and criterion validity of the scale.ConclusionsObtaining a psychometrically and conceptually sound factor solution is fundamental when validating a scale. With the present study, researchers and clinicians (e.g., midwives) will be able to measure women's childbirth satisfaction in a more robust manner. Both antecedents and consequences of satisfaction were found to correlate with several satisfaction subscales, which might help guide prevention programs in mother care in a more efficient way.

Published: November 2023

AimTo provide a comprehensive review of guidelines from various professional organisations on the work‐up and management of post‐prostatectomy Incontinence (PPI).Materials and MethodsThe following guidelines were included in this review: European Association of Urology (EAU 2023), American Urological Association/Society of Urodynamics, Female Pelvic Medicine and Urogenital Reconstruction (AUA/SUFU 2019), International Consultation on Incontinence (ICI, 2018), the Canadian Urological Association (CUA, 2012) and the Urological Society of India (USI, 2018).ResultsIn general, the guidelines concur regarding the significance of conducting a comprehensive history and physical examination for patients with post‐prostatectomy incontinence (PPI). However, there are variations among the guidelines concerning the recommended additional investigations. In cases of troublesome PPI, male slings are typically recommended for mild to moderate urinary incontinence (UI), while artificial urinary sphincters are preferred for moderate to severe UI, although the precise definition of this severity remains unclear. The guidelines provided by AUA/SUFU and the ICI have offered suggestions for managing complications or persistent/recurrent UI post‐surgery, though some differences can be observed within these recommendations as well.ConclusionThis is a first of its kind review encompassing Guidelines on PPI spanning over a decade. Although guidelines share overarching principles, nuanced variations persist, posing challenges for clinicians. This compilation consolidates and highlights both the similarities and differences among guidelines, providing a comprehensive overview of PPI diagnosis and management for practitioners. It is our expectation that as more evidence emerges in this and other areas of PPI management, the guidelines will converge and address crucial patient‐centric aspects.

ObjectivesTo identify and review the most up‐to‐date guidelines pertaining to bladder trauma in a unifying document as an updated primer in the management of all aspects relating to bladder injury.MethodsIn accordance with the PRISMA statement, the most recent guidelines pertaining to bladder injury were identified and subsequently critically appraised. An electronic search of PubMed and Scopus databases was carried out in September 2023.ResultsA total of six guidelines were included: European Association of Urology (EAU) guidelines on urological trauma (2023), EAU guidelines on paediatric urology (2022), Urotrauma: American Urological Association (AUA) (2020), Kidney and Uro‐trauma: World Society of Emergency Surgery and the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (WSES‐AAST) guidelines (2019), Management of blunt force bladder injuries: A practice management guideline from the Eastern Association for the Surgery of Trauma (EAST) (2019), and EAU guidelines on iatrogenic trauma (2012). Recommendations were summarised with the associated supporting level of evidence and strength of recommendation where available.ConclusionSeveral widely recognised professional organisations have published guidelines relating to the diagnosis, investigation, classification, management, and follow‐up related to bladder injury. There is consensus amongst all major guidelines in terms of diagnosis and management but there is some discrepancy and lack of recommendation with regards to the follow‐up of bladder injuries, iatrogenic bladder injury, paediatric bladder trauma, and spontaneous bladder rupture. The role of increasing minimally invasive techniques seem to be gaining traction in the select haemodynamically stable patient. Further research is required to better delineate this treatment option.

AbstractMotivationA well‐constructed nest is a key element of successful reproduction in most species of birds, and nest morphology varies widely across the class. Macroecological and macroevolutionary studies tend to group nest design into a small number of discrete categories, often based on taxonomic inference. In reality, however, many species display considerable intraspecific variation in their nest‐building behaviour, and broad‐level categories may include several functionally distinct nest types. To address this imprecision in the literature and facilitate future studies of broad‐scale variation in avian parental care, we here introduce a detailed, global comparative database of nest building in birds, together with preliminary correlations between these traits and species‐level environmental variables.Main types of variables containedWe present species‐level data for nest structure, location, height, material composition, sex of builder, building time and nest dimensions.Spatial location and grainGlobal. Maps are presented at the 10 × 10 level.Time period and grainIncluded species are generally extant, although we present some data for recently extinct taxa. The data were collected in 2017–2021 and was drawn from secondary sources published in 1992–2021.Major taxa and level of measurementPartial or complete trait data is presented for 8601 species of birds, representing 36 of 36 orders and 239 of 243 families.Software formatData have been uploaded as Supplementary Material in .csv format and are separated by species and source for all traits (Dataset , and Metadata) as well as summarized at the species level for the major structure and location variables (Dataset , and Metadata).
Revolutionizing solar greenhouses: A lighting environment control system for renewable vegetable cultivation, empowered by roller shutter control
Authors: Fu Qiqi , Li Xinxing , Zhang Guoxiang , Ma Yunfei 
Published: November 2023

AbstractAdvanced solar greenhouse lighting environment control systems typically replace traditional empirical control methods to reduce unnecessary resource consumption. The research proposes a solar greenhouse light environment control system based on the opening of the roller shutter (ORS), which controls the light environment of greenhouse by operating the roller shutter under different conditions, and introduces the traditional feedback closed‐loop lighting (FCL) system for comparison. The real‐time adjustment of the roller shutter can adjust the light environment in the greenhouse more accurately. An experimental laboratory station was fabricated to evaluate effectiveness of the proposed control system. The test results show that the ORS control system can regulate the greenhouse light environment to a desired value (R2 = .994), and effectively adjust the light levels as required. In contrast, the FCL system has a larger average light tracking relative error (4.68% greater than the ORS control system), and is weaker in accurately reflecting the light environment in the greenhouse. The main technical contribution of this research is the development of a solar greenhouse light environment control strategy based on the opening of a roller shutter, enabling effective regulation of the light environment. The results can be used as a theoretical basis for the production management of solar greenhouses and hold significance practical implications for the subsequent automation and intelligent control of greenhouse environments.Practical applicationsThe results can be used as a theoretical basis for the production management of solar greenhouses, and have an important practical significance for the subsequent automation and intelligent control of greenhouse environments.
Blockchain and digital governance: Decentralization of decision making policy
Authors: Kassen Maxat 
Published: November 2023

AbstractBlockchain is gaining popularity as a potential solution for the decentralized management of public information. A number of interesting solutions have been proposed by independent developers around the world to promote blockchain as a promising platform to potentially accelerate democratic processes and achieve certain public values in reforming digital governance. This could be reflected in facilitating direct citizen participation in digital politics, promoting greater civic cooperation and engagement in political discussions, boosting the role of civic commentary and even collaborative decision‐making in e‐government. In this regard, the article critically elaborates on the potential of this technology to promote political dimensions of public sector reforms in a post‐positivist manner, resorting to the analysis of concrete e‐participation cases in a number of public areas where the potential has already been realized and the opinions of professional software developers who are currently engaged in building various blockchain‐driven data management solutions in the e‐government area. This paper identifies, debates, and draws on what benefits and risks public policy can yield from the implementation of blockchain governance.
