Published: June 2022

Abstract
In this paper, the procedures and indicators of systematic inventorisation and analysis of the existing vegetation of urban landscapes are presented and applied. The analysis of the vitality of existing trees was performed using the Visual Tree Assessment (VTA) method on the location of Park in Stari Mikanovci, Croatia. The results of these analyses were used as a basis for the protection and care of existing vegetation, but also their implementation in the design. For this purpose, four different conceptual solutions for the park design were formed. The process of generating different concepts tried to answer the questions: whether the maximum preservation of vegetation elements is a limiting factor in the creative phase of the design process, and whether consistent preservation of vegetation elements will generate similarities of design solutions. Four conceptual solutions were developed by four different authors who were given the same project task: (a) maximum possible preservation on the basis of analysis of the determined values of existing vegetation, and (b) uniform basic residential and recreational content of the park. All other components and features of the landscape are left as variable, arbitrary and author-determined parameters. Multi-criteria descriptive analysis of the proposed design solutions showed that the existing vegetation is not a limiting factor for the typology, diversity, disposition and degree of intervention in the creative phase of the design process.
Mythologizing urban project: case of Barona Street in Riga
Authors: Gutmane Helena 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
The paper attempts to deconstruct the production of the myth associated with a street renovation project in Riga’s historical centre. During and after the reconstruction of Barona Street, it was widely used as a public image of street renovation failure. Professional and civil society blamed ad hoc planning, wrong traffic organisation, inappropriate design, and poor construction quality. It is this association of solely spatial aspects with the failure to create qualitative public space that constitutes the core of the Barona Street Myth of Failed design. The article postulates that interaction of social identity and social emotions underline communicative landscapes when significant public spaces are being transformed and induce mythologizing of urban projects. Built on the analysis of the related reflections and criticism in media and public discussions, the thick description of the Barona Street project’s events attempts to show how socially and emotionally shaped perception of design and implementation process by involved social groups has contributed to the mythologising the renovation of Barona Street. The conclusions emphasize socio-psychological framing of urban analysis. The emotional implication of the Barona Street myth induces reattribution of the responsibility for Failed Design to individual political leaders, designers, and involved municipal workers, shifting public attention away from structural and governance inability to engage with public spaces and creating preconditions for involving urban project as a tool in political power games.
Spatial Sampling Design to Improve the Efficiency of the Estimation of the Critical Parameters of the SARS-CoV-2 Epidemic

AbstractGiven the urgent informational needs connected with the diffusion of infection with regard to the COVID-19 pandemic, in this article, we propose a sampling design for building a continuous-time surveillance system. Compared with other observational strategies, the proposed method has three important elements of strength and originality: (1) it aims to provide a snapshot of the phenomenon at a single moment in time, and it is designed to be a continuous survey that is repeated in several waves over time, taking different target variables during different stages of the development of the epidemic into account; (2) the statistical optimality properties of the proposed estimators are formally derived and tested with a Monte Carlo experiment; and (3) it is rapidly operational as this property is required by the emergency connected with the diffusion of the virus. The sampling design is thought to be designed with the diffusion of SAR-CoV-2 in Italy during the spring of 2020 in mind. However, it is very general, and we are confident that it can be easily extended to other geographical areas and to possible future epidemic outbreaks. Formal proofs and a Monte Carlo exercise highlight that the estimators are unbiased and have higher efficiency than the simple random sampling scheme.

Authors: Wainwright Stevie 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
Management consultancy (MC) aims to generate value for organisations through enhanced organisational performance by providing objective advice and implementing business solutions (Management Consultancies Association (MCA), 2022). The success and growth of the industry, generating global revenues of US$634 billion and employing more than 4.3 billion people between 2018 – 2019 (Mosonyi, Empson and Gond, 2020), is a key indicator of the positive outcomes of management consultancy as a significant contributor to economies worldwide. However, the expansion and diversification of the unregulated sector poses issues for Quality Assurance (QA) as it seeks to ratify professionalism.
Insider Trading at Zagreb Stock Exchange
Authors: Kuveždić Marko , Dedi Lidija 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
This paper is the first paper that systematically observes and describes all publicly available data on insider trading on the Zagreb Stock Exchange during the period of June 2010 - June 2021. To accomplish this objective both parametric and non-parametric event-study tests are conducted using the data collected from 827 notifications published on the Zagreb Stock Exchange website. After filtering the notifications for overlapping events, there were 48 insiders’ purchase events and 50 insiders’ sales events. The results indicate that insiders can earn abnormal returns on share purchases based on their insider knowledge and that the information on insider purchases can bring additional information to outside investors. However, in the case of notifications of share sales by insiders, Cumulative Average Abnormal Returns (CAARs) after the event are not statistically significant and are just slightly positive, thus bringing no abnormal returns for insiders and not conveying information to the public. This suggests that the market may perceive sales having a lower informational content, as motivation for sales may be other needs, such as liquidity.
The Impact of Deferred Tax on Earnings Quality: Evidence from Algerian Companies
Authors: Kimouche Bilal 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
This paper aims to investigate the impact of deferred tax, as a technique adopted to support the economic orientation of financial statements over their legal form, on earnings quality as a required attribute to achieve the objective of financial reporting. The study used the model of Sloan (1996) through 280 firm-year observations that concern 40 Algerian companies from 2013 to 2019. Employing persistence and predictive ability as proxies for earnings quality, the results indicated that earnings of Algerian companies present a high level of persistence and a weak level of predictive ability. However, the deferred tax does impact neither the persistence of earnings nor their predictive ability. Therefore, accounting regulators in Algeria must simplify accounting for the deferred tax to encourage its application by companies and improve earnings quality.

ANALYSIS OF LEARNER’S CONJECTURE ABILITY IN SOLVING OPEN-ENDED PROBLEMS
Authors: Wulandari Lupita , Ekawati Rooselyna 
Published: June 2022

Conjecture will always be used by learners in problem solving, because the conjecture itself is tied to activities such as logical reasoning, translating problems, analyzing and evaluating an information to obtain valid decisions related to problem solving, where the conjecture is also able to develop the learning process of the learner in making a statement, especially with the help of open problems in its application, Which can make learners morecreative. This research aims to illustrate the conjecture ability of learners in open-ended problems with descriptive types of research and qualitative approaches to number pattern material, especially generalizing patterns. The subjects of the study are four learners who have a high and moderate level of mathematical ability and are willing to take part in interviews. The results showed that all subjects have not been able to perform every stage on constructing the conjecture, especially in the stage of arguing the conjecture and there is one subject who does not do the stage of proof of the conjecture because it is confident in the formula that has been given by the teacher. So that learning activities are needed in which there is problem solving that collects the ability of learners' contours, open-ended problems can also be one of the problem choices that can help students build their thought processes independently, and not bound by the formula of teachers or books.

Mathematical ability is the ability required by students to solve a problem, students with high abilities will find it easy to solve problems because they have a good understanding of concepts, whereas students with low abilities will find it difficult to solve problems because they do not understand concepts correctly, which is what causes students to make conceptual errors. A condition when students experience a conceptual error is called a misconception. This research is a qualitative study that has the purpose to describe the misconceptions at each level, such as high mathematical ability, moderate mathematical ability, and low mathematical ability on quadrilateral material and alternatives to overcome them. The subjects in this study were 3 students who were selected using purposive sampling. In this study, students were given a mathematical ability test so that they could be grouped according to their level, then misconceptions were analyzed using a misconception test with the modified CRI method and continued with a diagnostic interview. The results showed that students with low mathematical abilities experienced more misconceptions than other abilities. The three subjects experienced misconceptions in determining the shapes which include rectangular shapes and the nature of rectangular. The causes of misconceptions are caused by pictures, students' abilities, and incomplete reasoning. The alternatives that can be done to overcome misconceptions are providing cognitive conflict, providing scaffolding, and re-explanation.

Proses berpikir kritis merupakan suatu tahapan yang menggunakan keterampilan berpikir untuk membantu seseorang dalam menciptakan, menilai, dan menarik kesimpulan sesuai dengan keyakinan yang dimiliki meliputi empat tahap yaitu pengenalan (Recognition), analisis (Analysis), evaluasi (Evaluation), dan alternatif penyelesaian (Thinking about alternative). Proses berpikir kritis seseorang dapat dilihat melalui kegiatan pemecahan masalah matematika. Ada beberapa aspek yang memengaruhi proses berpikir kritis seseorang diantaranya adalah adanya perbedaan gaya kognitif. Gaya kognititf yang digunakan adalah gaya kognitif reflektif dan impulsif. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menggambarkan proses berpikir kritis siswa SMA dalam memecahkan masalah matematika ditinjau dari gaya kognitif reflektif dan impulsif. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif dengan pendekatan kualitatif. Subjek penelitian ini terdiri dari dua orang siswa kelas X yang memiliki gaya kognitif reflektif dan gaya kognitif impulsif dengan kemampuan matematika setara. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa siswa dengan gaya kognitif reflektif melewati 4 tahap proses dari berpikir kritis yaitu Pengenalan, Analisis, Evaluasi, dan Memikirkan Alternatif Penyelesaian. Soal dipecahkan siswa dengan langkah-langkah yang sistematis, rinci, cermat, dan jelas meskipun waktu yang dibutuhkan cenderung lama. Pada tahap Evaluasi dan Memikirkan Alternatif Penyelesaian, siswa kembali memeriksa jawaban secara teliti dan memikirkan alternatif jawaban yang lain meskipun ketika mencobanya, masih belum sampai pada hasil akhir. Sedangkan siswa bergaya kognitif impulsif hanya melalui 2 proses berpikir kritis, yaitu Pengenalan, dan Analisis. Siswa memecahkan soal dengan langkah-langkah singkat, kurang jelas, tidak beralasan logis, meskipun waktu yang dibutuhkan cenderung cepat. Pada tahap Evaluasi dan Memikirkan alternatif penyelesaian, siswa tidak berpikir untuk memeriksa kembali atau memikirkan cara lain untuk menyelesaikan soal.
