Pupil changes in persons aged 8 to 79 during text reading – an eye-tracking study
Authors: Kazubowski Paweł , Błasiak Władysław 
Published: January 2022

Summary
The Eye Tribe eye-tracker was used to capture pupil sizes and fixation times of 40 people aged 8 to 79 years during text reading. The dependence of the number of readable lines on the participants’ age was determined. A function describing the dependence of the eye surface area on age was also derived. Visual perception of the maximum number of consecutive lines with decreasing text font size is best for people aged 30–40. For the studied age group, the pupil area decreased with age by approximately 300%. An approximately two-fold increase in average fixation times was recorded.

Published: January 2022

Summary
There are many works in the literature on the construction of experimental plans based on weighing designs. Hence, it is useful to compile a catalogue of experimental designs with specific properties. In this work, we investigate the properties of experimental plans constructed using the matrices of spring balance weighing designs. Additionally, an even number of experimental objects is assumed. An overview of the construction methods of these designs and classes of design matrices with selected properties are given. The results make it possible to create a catalogue of experimental designs constructed on the basis of spring balance weighing designs.
Influence of different sowing density in two varieties of maize. Part I. Relation to yielding
Authors: Ambroży-Deręgowska Katarzyna , Szulc Piotr 
Published: January 2022

Summary
A study was carried out to determine the effect of sowing density on the yield of maize of two different varieties. The field experiment was carried out in 2012–2014 at the Department of Agronomy of Poznań University of Life Sciences. The first-order factor was the variety: SY Cooky and Drim “stay-green”; the second-order factor was sowing density: 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 plants per m2. Weather conditions during the maize growing seasons significantly influenced the values of the studied traits. Significantly the lowest green mass yield of maize was obtained at the sowing density of 6 plants m−2, and the highest for 10 plants m−2. The “stay-green” variety significantly responded to an increase in sowing density with reduced fresh weight of leaf blades of a single plant compared with the conventional variety. This indicated highly effective photosynthesis with a lower plant density per unit area, which is also the basis for effective absorption of solar radiation for these maize varieties.
Algorithm NextFit for the Bin Packing Problem
Authors: Fujiwara Hiroshi , Adachi Ryota , Yamamoto Hiroaki 
Published: January 2022

Summary. The bin packing problem is a fundamental and important optimization problem in theoretical computer science [4], [6]. An instance is a sequence of items, each being of positive size at most one. The task is to place all the items into bins so that the total size of items in each bin is at most one and the number of bins that contain at least one item is minimum.
Approximation algorithms have been intensively studied. Algorithm NextFit would be the simplest one. The algorithm repeatedly does the following: If the first unprocessed item in the sequence can be placed, in terms of size, additionally to the bin into which the algorithm has placed an item the last time, place the item into that bin; otherwise place the item into an empty bin. Johnson [5] proved that the number of the resulting bins by algorithm NextFit is less than twice the number of the fewest bins that are needed to contain all items.
In this article, we formalize in Mizar [1], [2] the bin packing problem as follows: An instance is a sequence of positive real numbers that are each at most one. The task is to find a function that maps the indices of the sequence to positive integers such that the sum of the subsequence for each of the inverse images is at most one and the size of the image is minimum. We then formalize algorithm NextFit, its feasibility, its approximation guarantee, and the tightness of the approximation guarantee.

Published: January 2022

Abstract
For long-term space missions, it is necessary to understand how organisms respond to changes in gravity. Plant roots are positively gravitropic; the primary root grows parallel to gravity's pull even after being turned away from the direction of gravity. We examined if this gravitropic response varies depending on the time of day reorientation occurs. When plants were reoriented in relation to the gravity vector or placed in simulated microgravity, the magnitude of the root gravitropic response varied depending on the time of day the initial change in gravity occurred. The response was greatest when plants were reoriented at dusk, just before a period of rapid growth, and were minimal just before dawn as the plants entered a period of reduced root growth. We found that this variation in the magnitude of the gravitropic response persisted in constant light (CL) suggesting the variation is circadian-regulated. Gravitropic responses were disrupted in plants with disrupted circadian clocks, including plants overexpressing Circadian-clock Associated 1 (CCA1) and elf3-2, in the reorientation assay and on a 2D clinostat. These findings indicate that circadian-regulated pathways modulate the gravitropic responses, thus, highlighting the importance of considering and recording the time of day gravitropic experiments are performed.
Is control still an important managerial function? An examination of structural and control process factors in strategic alliances
Authors: Lehene Cosmin Florin 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
In this paper we aimed to find an answer to the question: is control still important for modern organization in order to favor achievement of superior performances? We have tried to find answer to this question through an empirical investigation in the field of strategic alliances. Thus, we have analyzed the relationship between alliance monitorization and control and various measures of alliance performances. Based on a statistical analysis of data provided by 46 best performers medium and large companies operating in Romania, we found that control is still important for superior performances, whether productivity (e.g. revenues growth) or innovation related performances (e.g. new product development). We used multiple multilinear regressions and found positive associations between alliance monitorization and control, structural control factors and productivity, respectively innovation related performances. Surprisingly, we found that control process factors are not associated with superior innovation performances and for productivity related performances there is only a low intensity association. In terms of explanatory potential of regression models, in five models out of six, the control factors significantly explained why some companies extracted higher value from their portfolio of strategic alliances, as compared to companies extracting more modest value. The various measures of alliance performances (revenues growth, competitive position, customer satisfaction, operations improvement, product improvement, new product development) were also separately investigated.

Published: January 2022

Objectives:
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of a home-based palliative care program delivered by community health workers (CHW) in rural areas outside of Kolkata, India. The specific aims were to assess CHWs’ ability to implement the intervention protocol and maintain records of care, to characterize patient problems and CHW activities to assist patients, and to assess change in patient pain scores over the course of the intervention.

Materials and Methods:
Four CHWs were hired to facilitate delivery of home-based palliative care services. CHWs were trained using the Worldwide Hospice and Palliative Care Alliance’s Palliative Care Toolkit. CHWs provided care for patients for 3-months, making regular home visits to monitor health, making and implementing care plans, and referring patients back to the cancer center team for serious problems.

Results:
Eleven patients enrolled in the intervention, with ten of these patients participating in the intervention and one patient passing away before starting the intervention. All ten participants reported physical pain, for which CHWs commonly recommended additional or higher dose medication and/or instructed patients how to take medication properly. For two patients, pain levels decreased between baseline and end of study, while pain scores did not decrease for the remaining patients. Other symptoms for which CHWs provided care included gastro-intestinal, bleeding, and respiratory problems.

Conclusion:
The study findings suggest that utilization of CHWs to provide palliative care in low-resource settings may be a feasible approach for expanding access to palliative care. CHWs were able to carry out the study visit protocol and assess and document patient problems and their activities to assist. They were also able to alleviate many common problems patients experienced with simple suggestions or referrals. However, most patients did not see a decrease in pain levels and more emphasis was needed on the emotional aspects of palliative care, and so CHWs may require additional training on provision of pain management and emotional support services.

Islamic conservatism has been said to inspire the rise of intolerance between religions in Indonesia and the growth of radical ideologies which threatens government stability. To understand the rise of Islamic conservatism, two studies were conducted to construct a valid and reliable psychological measurement which is able to measure the level of Islamic conservatism among Indonesian people. This Islamic conservatism scale consists of 5 dimensions with 2-3 indicators for each dimension. The validity testing was conducted using Confirmatory Factor Analysis, while the reliability testing of the instrument was conducted using Cronbach Alpha as internal consistency technique. The testings were conducted twice, in which the first one showed that 5 dimensions-scale is unfit, although reliable. When 2 dimensions with high social desirable items were excluded, the scale with 3 dimensions show a good fit, therefore the scale is valid and also reliable. Second study was conducted to measure convergent validity by correlating the 3-dimension scale with RWA scale. Result shows the scale has a significant positive correlation with RWA indicating the scale has a convergent validity.Keywords: Conservatism, Islam, scale construction, IndonesiaAbstrak: Konservatisme dalam agama Islam di Indonesia telah disebut melatarbelakangi terjadinya kasus-kasus intoleransi antar umat beragama yang mengancam stabilitas negara. Untuk mengukur pertumbuhan konservatisme Islam di Indonesia, dua studi dilakukan untuk mengkonstruksi alat ukur yang valid dan reliabel. Alat ukur yang ini memiliki lima dimensi dengan dua sampai tiga indikator per dimensi. Validitas konstruk alat ukur dilakukan dengan metode Confirmatory Factor Analysis dan reliabilitasnya diuji dengan Cronbach Alpha. Uji validitas dan reliabilitas dilakukan dua kali. Pengujian pertama pada alat ukur dengan 5 dimensi menunjukkan model tidak fit, namun reliabel. Pengujian kedua dilakukan pada alat ukur yang menghilangkan 2 dimensi yang memiliki tingkat social desirability tinggi. Hasilnya pengujian menunjukkan bahwa model alat ukur dengan 3 dimensi fit, yang berarti alat ukur valid. Selain itu alat ukur dengan 3 dimensi bersifat reliabel. Studi kedua dilakukan untuk mengukur validitas konvergen dengan mengkorelasikan alat ukur 3 dimensi dengan skala RWA. Hasil menunjukkan skala ini memiliki korelasi positif yang signifikan dengan RWA, mengindikasikan skala ini memiliki validitas konvergen.
