Does job satisfaction mediate the effect of a reward system on organizational citizenship behavior? Evidence from the public sector

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Employees with organizational citizenship behavior are characterized by the attitude of people who show employees’ willingness to exceed the minimum targets set by the organization. Thus, employees will work voluntarily even outside their duties and responsibilities. This study aims to investigate the interactions between reward systems and organizational citizenship behavior, considering work satisfaction as a mediating factor. This paper employs a quantitative methodology. Thirty-eight agricultural extension employees from the Agricultural Office in Labuhanbatu Regency, Indonesia, served as the samples. SEM (SmartPLS) approach was utilized to analyze the data. The findings discovered that the reward system has a favorable and considerable impact on job satisfaction. The results also boosted that the increase in employee job satisfaction has a positive and significant effect on increasing organizational citizenship behavior. The relationship between the reward system and organizational citizenship behavior is positive but insignificant. Moreover, the study also demonstrates that job satisfaction significantly and favorably mediates the impact of the reward system on organizational citizenship behavior. Therefore, a reward policy must be implemented to satisfy employees because job satisfaction is crucial in increasing organizational citizenship behavior.
The utility and limitations of chloroplast DNA analysis for identifying native British oak stands and for guiding replanting strategy

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

We report a method using variation in the chloroplast genome (cpDNA) to test whether oak stands of unknown provenance are of native and/or local origin. As an example, a sample of test oaks, of mostly unknown status in relation to nativeness and localness, were surveyed for cpDNA type. The sample comprised 126 selected trees, derived from 16 British seed stands, and 75 trees, selected for their superior phenotype (201 tree samples in total). To establish whether these two test groups are native and local, their cpDNA type was compared with that of material from known autochthonous origin (results of a previous study which examined variation in 1076 trees from 224 populations distributed across Great Britain). In the previous survey of autochthonous material, four cpDNA types were identified as native; thus if a test sample possessed a new haplotype then it could be classed as non-native. Every one of the 201 test samples possessed one of the four cpDNA types found within the autochthonous sample. Therefore none could be proven to be introduced and, on this basis, was considered likely to be native. The previous study of autochthonous material also found that cpDNA variation was highly structured geographically and, therefore, if the cpDNA type of the test sample did not match that of neighbouring autochthonous trees then it could be considered to be non-local. A high proportion of the seed stand group (44.2 per cent) and the phenotypically superior trees (58.7 per cent) possessed a cpDNA haplotype which matched that of the neighbouring autochthonous trees and, therefore, can be considered as local, or at least cannot be proven to be introduced. The remainder of the test sample could be divided into those which did not grow in an area of overall dominance (18.7 per cent of seed stand trees and 28 per cent of phenotypically superior) and those which failed to match the neighbouring autochthonous haplotype (37.1 per cent and 13.3 per cent, respectively). Most of the non-matching test samples were located within 50 km of an area dominated by a matching autochthonous haplotype (96.0 per cent and 93.5 per cent, respectively), and potentially indicates only local transfer. Whilst such genetic fingerprinting tests have proven useful for assessing the origin of stands of unknown provenance, there are potential limitations to using a marker from the chloroplast genome (mostly adaptively neutral) for classifying seed material into categories which have adaptive implications. These limitations are discussed, particularly within the context of selecting adaptively superior material for restocking native forests.
246.1: Antibody Response and Cellular Phenotyping in Kidney Transplant Recipients Following SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Introduction: Correlates of protection for SARS-CoV-2 vaccines are not yet well-established in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). Studies have highlighted the importance of neutralizing antibodies (Abs), however data suggests T cell responses may play a secondary role in preventing reinfection. We performed a longitudinal assessment of immunogenicity and T and B cell responses in KTRs following SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. Methods: KTRs eligible for SARS-CoV-2 vaccination were screened through medical records from March 12, 2021. Baseline and weekly blood samples were collected for routine assessment, SARS-CoV-2 spike protein Ab titers and cellular phenotyping for 12 weeks. Ab response was defined as a 10-fold increase in total binding IgG titers. To determine if T cell responses were induced by vaccination, we considered the proportion of activated non-naive CD4+ and CD8+ T cells after vaccination. Results: 49 KTRs with a mean age of 54 years were enrolled (Table 1). 10 patients (20.4%) mounted an Ab response following completed vaccination. A history of COVID-19 was associated with an increased likelihood of developing an Ab response (OR: 18.3, 95% CI 3.2, 105.0, p=0.0005). For non-naive CD8+ T cells, a subset co-expressing CD38+Ki67+ was induced 1 week after the 1st immunization in some SARS-CoV-2-naiive patients (P=0.12 versus P=0.14 for SARS-CoV-2-experienced adults, Figure 1A/B). For non-naive CD4+ T cells, induction of a subset co-expressing CD38+Ki67+ was observed at 1 week after the 1st immunization for SARS-CoV-2-naïve participants (P = 0.09 for SARS-CoV-2-naïve, P=0.03 for SARS-CoV-2-experienced adults, Figure 1C/D). For CD8+ and CD4+ T cells, dose 2 stimulated weak induction of the CD38+Ki67+ subset in the SARS-CoV-2-naïve patients only (Figure 1A-D). Conclusions: Quantitative Ab responses were strongly associated with prior SARS-CoV-2 infection. Activated CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses were evident in most patients, with wide variation, irrespective of COVID-19 history. Further studies are needed to determine whether these activated CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses were antigen-specific or confer immunity.
Intervals and Number of Applications of Acibenzolar-S-Methyl for the Control of Bacterial Spot on Processing Tomato

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Acibenzolar-S-methyl (ASM) is a plant activator that triggers systemic acquired resistance that is labeled for use in Brazil for managing tomato bacterial spot. The aim of this study was to define the optimum relationship between interval and number of applications of ASM for the most efficacious control of bacterial spot on processing tomato. Four intervals between applications (4, 7, 10, and 14 days) and four application frequencies (4, 6, 8, and 10 applications) were evaluated in five trials performed between 2010 and 2011 in Brasília, Distrito Federal, and in Morrinhos, in the state of Goiás. Copper hydroxide (CH) was applied after ASM applications to complete 13 applications per growing season. Two check treatments were added: standard CH weekly applications and untreated. The following variables were evaluated: severity of bacterial spot, yield, percentage of ripe and rotten fruit, soluble solids content, and the benefit/cost ratio. Disease severity varied between treatments in three trials and yield varied in two trials. A greater number of applications resulted in a reduction of bacterial spot, and the ideal interval between applications was between 8 to 10 days. However, there was a reduction in yield with 10 ASM applications. The temporal effect of ASM applications on bacterial spot severity was evaluated under greenhouse conditions. Reduction in disease severity was observed up to 6 days following ASM application. Additionally, the weekly treatment of seven applications of ASM followed by six applications of CH was compared with a standard program of CH under commercial production conditions in Itaberaí, Goiás, where bacterial spot occurred naturally. The program with ASM and CH resulted in significantly less foliar disease severity than the standard program, which did not result in yield gains. In addition, no differences were detected between the two programs for soluble solids content, industrial yield, plant height, and percentage of ripe and rotten fruit.
An algorithm of hardware unit generation for processor core synthesis with packed SIMD type instructions

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The authors consider the synthesis of a processor core with SIMD instructions by a hardware/software cosynthesis system. The system is required to configure functional units executing SIMD instructions and obtain the area and delay of the functional units to evaluate the synthesized processor core. This paper proposes a hardware unit generation algorithm for a hardware/software cosynthesis system of processors with SIMD instructions. Given a set of instructions to be executed by a hardware unit and constraints for area and delay of the hardware unit, the proposed algorithm extracts a set of subfunctions to be required by the hardware unit and generates more than one architecture candidates for the hardware unit. The algorithm also outputs the estimated area and delay of each of the generated hardware units. The execution time of the proposed algorithm is very short and thus it can be easily incorporated into the processor core synthesis system. Experimental results demonstrate effectiveness and efficiency of the algorithm.

The Influence of Gender Roles on Eating Attitudes: A Study Among Female College Students Abstract

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Introduction Eating disorders (ED) are serious mental and physical illnesses that involve complex and damaging relationships with eating, exercise, and body image. They emerge due to a multifaceted interplay of factors, including familial predispositions, personality traits, and cultural influences. While societal beauty standards are recognized as significant risk factors, it is hypothesized that the roles and responsibilities associated with adult womanhood may also contribute to their development. In particular, the unique challenges faced by women, especially in developing countries like Turkey, may lead to discontent with traditional gender roles. Objectives This study aims to explore the connection between eating disorders, female identity perceptions, body attitudes, expectations regarding women’s roles within families, and their potential association with body dysphoria. We investigate whether eating disorders are linked to a form of sexual dysphoria and body dysmorphia related to femininity rather than solely driven by societal beauty ideals. Methods Data from 228 female college students, both undergraduate and graduate, were collected via online surveys. The survey instruments included a sociodemographic form, the Eating Attitude Test, the Gender Roles Attitude Scale, and the Multidimensional Body-Self Relations Questionnaire. Results The average age of the participants was 24.41 (18-33) years. Regression analysis revealed that age (β=-0.155, p=0.015), the belief that physical appearance would be less important if they were male (β=0.292, p<0.001), and maternal criticism about weight (β=0.239, p<0.001) were influential factors in shaping eating attitudes. Surprisingly, no significant relationship was found between eating attitudes and traditional gender roles (β=0.072, p=0.246). However, we did establish a connection between aspiring to meet ideal thinness standards and perceiving women as disadvantaged in the workplace due to their traditional gender roles (t(226)=2.32, p=0.021), as well as with maternal criticism (t(225)=3.55, p<0.001). Conclusions Our findings suggest that the absence of a direct link between eating attitudes and traditional gender roles may be attributed to an individual’s perception of their environment rather than their self-assessment of masculinity within an egalitarian context. Notably, maternal influences specifically their criticism regarding their daughters’ weight and the roles assigned to mothers significantly shape these perceptions and, consequently, eating behaviors, aligning with existing literature (Ferreira et al., 2021). This underscores the need to consider eating disorders within a broader biopsychosocial framework, encompassing attitudes toward the world and one’s role within it.

Magnetic structure of the noncentrosymmetric heavy-fermion superconductor CePt3Si

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

We have determined the magnetic structure of the noncentrosymmetric heavy-fermion superconductor CePt3Si using elastic polarized neutron scattering with field-projected (longitudinal) XYZ polarization analysis. We find that the magnetic moment has components both in the tetragonal basal plane and along the tetragonal four-fold axis. Such a magnetic structure is not symmetry-allowed if the magnetic phase transition is second order, and may imply that CePt3Si has lower symmetry in the superconducting state than originally thought.
PET imaging of microglia by targeting macrophage colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R)

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

Significance [ 11 C]CPPC [5-cyano- N -(4-(4-[ 11 C]methylpiperazin-1-yl)-2-(piperidin-1-yl)phenyl)furan-2-carboxamide] is a PET radiotracer specific for CSF1R, a microglia-specific marker. This compound can be used as a noninvasive tool for imaging of reactive microglia, disease-associated microglia and their contribution to neuroinflammation in vivo. Neuroinflammation is posited to be an underlying pathogenic feature of a wide variety of neuropsychiatric disorders. [ 11 C]CPPC may also be used to study specifically the immune environment of malignancies of the central nervous system and to monitor potential adverse neuroinflammatory effects of immunotherapy for peripheral malignancies. This PET agent will be valuable in the development of new therapeutics for neuroinflammation, particularly those targeting CSF1R, not only by providing a noninvasive, repeatable readout in patients but also by enabling measurement of drug target engagement.
Emergence of West Nile Virus in Ivory Coast

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

West Nile fever is a neglected endemic pathology in West Africa. It is caused by a flavivirus. The objective of this work is to search from the national surveillance of yellow fever and Dengue viruses, the West Nile virus for the year 2019. Sera from samples diagnosed negative for yellow fever and dengue fever were used to detect specific anti-yellow fever virus IgM antibodies by immunocapture using the ELISA (Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay) technique. The real-time molecular method (RT-PCR) was also used to search for the viral genome through the envelope gene (E). Serological results revealed serum IgM antibodies against West Nile virus. We have 03 positive cases/132 cases studied with 3.17% positive in women and 1.67% of cases in men. It affected children aged 15 to 17 (0.76%) and adults over 40 (1.53%). Only the districts of Abidjan were exposed. Regarding the PCR test, all samples for the viral genome were negative. This study indicates the presence of antibodies against the circulating West Nile virus in Abidjan. These West Nile cases detected in the Abidjan health district have highlighted the reality of West Nile.

Creativity as a Resource of Adaptation in a Politically and Economically Unstable Environment

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

The purpose of the study was to identify the specifics of creativity in student age and the peculiarities of socio-psychological adaptation in a politically and economically unstable environment, as well as gender and micro group patterns of the relationship between creativity and adaptability. The methods such as the Guilford-Torrance method, “Desire for creativity” Scale, Kettell test, Methods of Moreno sociometry, Leary’s method, and Dembo-Rubinstein method were used to monitor the variables. The study identified that non-verbal creativity develops in individuals aged 16-17 years. The creative attitude to life develops in the ones aged 17-18. At the age of 18-19, creativity becomes the most integrated into the system of personal characteristics are motivational and personal components of creativity, which form positive connections with the fundamental adaptive personality characteristics, which indicates a greater adaptive resource of creatively oriented individuals. It was also found that boys, compared to girls, were more prone to leadership, more persistent, assertive (E), more emotionally stable (C), calm (O), and also more independent (Q2). Girls were more likely to feel guilty, anxious (O), more sociable, open (A), sensitive, and vulnerable (I). The study found that students with a high level of development of divergent thinking and its components (cognitive factors of creativity) carry out interpersonal communication (as a component of adaptation) most flexibly and effectively making students less prone to depersonalisation and reducing the risk of emotional exhaustion and maladaptation.
Additive Manufacturing of Architected Battery Components for Fast Charging Batteries

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Fast charging batteries require facile Li+ ion transport through the porous electrodes. Tape casted electrodes typically demonstrate sluggish ion transport with the increase of layer thickness due to the limited porosity and high tortuosity. Architecting the electrodes to introduce fast ion transport highways is a promising strategy to enhance the power density with limited sacrifice of energy density. In this work, we report our recent efforts in additive manufacturing (AM) of architected electrodes and separators. Two AM techniques are employed for the fabrication of electrodes and separators, including direct ink writing and projection micro stereolithography, respectively. A variety of geometries are designed, fabricated, and compared for the fast charging capabilities. The results show that proper design of the cell configuration and choice of material chemistry are critical to show the benefits from AM. The limitations, and future directions of AM application in batteries will also be discussed.
Large interannual CO2 and energy exchange variability in a freshwater marsh under consistent environmental conditions

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

We analyzed a 5‐year record of the CO 2 and energy exchange, Aboveground Net Primary Production (ANPP), maximum Leaf Area Index (LAI max ), and Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) for a Typha marsh in Southern California. The marsh was a net source of carbon over the study, despite high rates of ANPP. Interannual Net Ecosystem Production (NEP) variability was the largest that has been reported for any terrestrial ecosystem and was attributed to changes in maximum photosynthetic rates (GEE max ). The variation in energy and mass exchange was coupled between years; years with higher than average rates of carbon uptake were associated with lower than average sensible heat fluxes. Remotely sensed measures of surface greenness (EVI) were closely related to GEE max variation, providing further evidence of interannual variability. We were unable to attribute the fluctuations in GEE max to the direct effects of weather on ecosystem physiology, or to interannual variation in LAI max . GEE did not vary systematically with air temperature or the presence of standing water in the marsh; GEE max did not vary with LAI max between years. Rather, interannual variation in carbon exchange at the SJFM resulted from shifts in the marsh's production efficiency (the rates of gross or net CO 2 exchange per LAI) that were not caused by changes in the weather. Our findings challenge the assumptions that interannual variation of land‐atmosphere exchange is universally caused by the direct effect of weather on ecosystem physiology, and that an ecosystem's physiological response to the physical environment is consistent from year‐to‐year.

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Menstruation is a periodical bleeding according to its cycle. Menstrual pain is a painful feeling during menstruation at the lower region that accompanying menstruation, before, or after menstruation. Guided Imagery relaxation is a common method which is the utmost method especially for patients experiencing pain. Therefore a study to examine the effect of relaxation therapy in relieving pain is required. This study was to examine the discrepancy of menstrual pain level before and after guided imagery relaxation performed. This quasi experiment with pre and posttest control group design was to investigate the effect of a guided imagery relaxation therapy on the menstrual pain. Data were analyzed by Mann-Whitney test with significant threshold set to 0.05. Results indicated that the experiment group experienced menstrual pain score mean 2.6 � 0.5, while in the control group 4.6 � 0.6. It concluded that guided imagery relaxation effect on menstrual pain.
