Setelah terbitnya PERMA No. 1 Tahun 2016, yang menggantikan PERMA No. 1 Tahun 2008 terkait Tata Cara Arbitrase di Pengadilan, tentunya bertujuan untuk memberikan dampak positif terhadap Tata Cara Arbitrase pada Pengadilan. Namun dalam praktiknya, khususnya di bidang litigasi, angkanya lebih tinggi dari pada kasus lainnya, dan masih terdapat kendala dalam pelaksanaannya. Berdasarkan persoalan tersebut, maka penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui penerapan PERMA No.1 Tahun 2016 Terhadap Perkara Perceraian yang Diajukan di Pengadilan Agama Kab. Wonosobo, Apakah mediasi di Pengadilan Agama Wonosobo sesuai PERMA No. 1 Tahun 2016, dan kendala-kendala dalam pelaksanaan mediasi di Pengadilan Agama Wonosobo. Observasi yang dipakai adalah observasi pengamatan, akumulasi data dengan cara wawancara dan observasi dengan salah satu pegawai Pengadilan Agama. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah bahwa pelaksanaan PERMA No. 1 Tahun 2016 terhadap cerai gugat masih belum menuai hasil yang signifikan karena dari, mediasi yang dilaksanakan di Pengadilan Agama Wonosobo mengacu pada PERMA No. 1 Tahun 2016 dibuktikan dengan banyaknya kendala yang ditemui berasal dari pihak yang berperkara, sedangkan kendala-kendala yang ditemui dalam pelaksanaan mediasi berasal dari faktor dari dalam dan faktor dari luar.

Published: June 2023

One of the main environmental factors that restricts the growth and productivity of sorghum is salt stress, which interferes with physiological processes including relative water content, NBI (nitrogen balance index), photosynthetic rate, etc. Agricultural land affected by soil salinity is growing significantly worldwide, therefore, strategies are needed to improve the salinity tolerance and most efficient one can be opted by studying the response of sorghum against salinity. Salt stress can be reduced by plant stress hormones such jasmonates, ABA, brassinosteroids, etc. In order to assess the effects of jasmonic acid (JA) (4.5, 6.5 & 8.5 mM) on the physiological properties of sorghum (HJ 541 and CSV 21F) grown in saline soil (4, 6 & 8 dS/m), green house experiment was executed on a complete randomized design (CRD), with three replications. The results shows that the salinity adversely effected photosynthetic efficiency, chlorophyll content, antioxidants (anthocyanin and flavonoids), nitrogen balance index, ash content which can be used as the most suitable parameter for determining tolerance to salinity stress. While, foliar application of jasmonic acid significantly improved the relative water content, chlorophyll content, photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, etc. Jasmonic acid concentrations of 8.5 mM had more noticeable effects. Percent enhancement in chlorophyll index, transpiration rate, stomatal conductance, was 14.5% and 13.4%, 16.7% and 19.9%, 42.0% and 58.0% in HJ 541 and CSV 21F, respectively at 8 dS/m as compared to control. CSV 21F performed better as compared to HJ 541 at all levels of salt stress after application of jasmonic acid.

Authors: Shamo Anteson Daniel 
Published: June 2023

The study adopted a quantitative and qualitative case study approach to investigate the impact of transformational leadership characteristics on leaders in University of Education, Winneba, Ghana. Two assumptions accompanied the study. The conceptual framework of the state government work environment and the transformational theory by Avolio and Bass was adopted in this study. The study employed the non-experimental case study design. The target population was all people running administrative duties in University of Education, Winneba. Multi-stage sampling technique was employed by using purposive sampling and convenience sampling to sample the universities and the participants respectively. Fifty participants were single out in this study. The study adopted Avolio and Bass Multifactor leadership questionnaire (MLQ) together with an interview guide as a supplementary instrument for the study. Data from the respondents was analyzed using inferential statistics t-test to evaluate the difference between the means of two different groups on the major transformational leadership features descriptive statistics include mean, standard deviation, and calculated probability (p-value) using the SPSS19.0. It was found that demographic features of an individual such as gender and marital status affect their transformational leadership styles. It was also unveiled that the leaders’ exhibit transformational leadership features such as spending time to teach and coach followers; paying attentiveness to each individual follower’s demand for accomplishment and growth, and identifying the capabilities and limitations of followers. The independent t-Test revealed that the leaders’ exhibit the four I’s of transformational leadership frequently. Finally it was established that leaders should mobilize followers’ commitment to achieve results beyond what would normally be expected and emphasize ethics with symbolic actions to ensure leadership development in Ghanaian universities. It was recommended that University of Education, Winneba should provide male and females with equal education on regular basis in order for them to build upon their prerequisite skills at the same level to unravel the notion that school administration is gender sensitive. Also, administrators, HODs and deans in University of Education, Winneba should primarily exhibit the transformational leadership features in their administration to enhance the efficient acquisition of the institutional needs and wants.
Engineering of Electromechanical Oxides by Symmetry Breaking

Published: June 2023

AbstractComplex oxides exhibit a wide range of fascinating functionalities, such as ferroelectricity, piezoelectricity, and pyroelectricity, which are indispensable for cutting‐edge electronics, energy, and information technologies. The intriguing physical properties of these complex oxides arise from the complex interplay between lattice, orbital, charge, and spin degrees of freedom. Here, it is reviewed how electromechanical properties can be achieved/improved by artificially breaking the symmetry of centrosymmetric oxides via engineering thermodynamic variables such as stress, strain, electric field, and chemical potentials. The mechanisms that have been utilized to break the inherent symmetry of conventional materials that lead to novel functionalities and applications are explored. It is highlighted that access to “hidden phases,” which otherwise are prohibited, could uncover opportunities to host exotic properties, such as piezoelectricity, pyroelectricity, etc. This review not only reports how to engineer intrinsically nonpolar and centrosymmetric oxides for emergent properties, but also has implications for manipulating polar functional materials for better performance.
