Bullying Sebagai Penghambat Kedewasaan Remaja di Bekasi

The study examines the impact of bullying on adolescent maturity in Bekasi, using methods of literary study. Factors such as the psychological condition of the perpetrators and victims, the family environment, and the school culture play a role in the occurrence of bullying. Bullying can lead to mental health disorders and decreased academic performance in adolescents, which in their behavior can hinder their progress towards maturity. The study analyzed patterns of relationships between bullying experiences and aspects of adolescent maturity, such as emotions, cognition, and behavior. Factors that moderate the negative impact of bullying are also being explored.

Cognitive, affective, and behavioral engagement with science news predicted by the use of accessibility strategies in science-minded and general audiences

Numerous studies have explored internal factors such as cultural values and acquired knowledge accounting for how people engage with science. However, it remains unclear how external factors embedded in science texts relate to audience engagement. A content analysis of 298 text-based popular science news articles and their following 5852 reader comments was conducted in two Israeli audiences, science-minded and general readers, to explore how the accessibility strategies embedded in these articles relate to cognitive, affective, and behavioral engagement. Findings indicated similar patterns of relationship between accessibility strategies and engagement expressions for both audiences; however, the relationships were more pronounced for general readers compared to science-minded readers. Using jargon and a narrative writing style increased the odds of positive emotions in reader comments, whereas addressing socio-scientific issues increased the odds of cognitive expressions. These results may contribute to a fuller understanding of ways to drive meaningful public engagement.

Improving 6th Grade Students’ Creative Problem Solving Skills Through Plugged and Unplugged Computational Thinking Approaches

In the digital age in which we live, one of the primary goals of education is to nurture individuals who are capable of thinking creatively, solving problems, and being innovative and productive. Computational thinking is an analytical process that requires defining problems and at the same time solving these problems by proceeding in creative ways. Based on this possible pattern of relationship between computational thinking and creativity, the aim of this study was to determine how two different versions of the computational thinking approach (plugged and unplugged) affect 6th-grade students' creative problem-solving skills (CPSS). Thus, two different teaching modules were designed on the circulatory system with a focus on plugged and unplugged computational thinking. A quasi-experimental design was used. Experiment group 1 utilized the plugged teaching module, experiment group 2 worked with the unplugged teaching module, and the control group in the Turkish middle school science curriculum's inquiry-based science activities. All three groups participated in 16 h of lessons over a 4-week period. We utilized the Creative Problem Solving Skills Inventory (CPSSI) for data collection. The results demonstrated that both the plugged and unplugged teaching modules were more successful at enhancing the CPSS than the inquiry-based science activities. Furthermore the unplugged teaching module was significantly more successful in developing CPSS compared to inquiry-based science activities. Hence, this empirical study demonstrated that both plugged and unplugged computational thinking approaches can enhance CPSS, but also reveals the greater effectiveness of unplugged approaches in fostering middle school students' CPSS.

Sex-specific relationship patterns between body morphology and maturity status with change of direction and agility in elite adolescent volleyball players

This study explored sex-specific patterns in the relationship between maturity, body morphology, and change of direction (COD) and agility (AG) in adolescent volleyball players. The sample comprised 22 males and 24 females aged 15–17 with at least 4 years of sports experience. Measurements included body height, weight, muscle and fat mass, leg length, and center of mass. The study determined the Age of Peak Height Velocity (APHV) and evaluated sensorimotor ability through pre-planned COD and not-planned AG five-time shuttle runs, measuring the time difference as the index of reactivity. Positive correlations were found between COD and AG with fat mass index (FMI) in boys, while negative relative lower limb length (rLL) correlated with COD. In females, age of peak height velocity (APHV) showed a significant negative relationship with sensorimotor ability. Linear and polynomial regressions confirmed predictive and curvilinear relationships, respectively. Cluster analysis identified different associations in boys and girls, emphasizing sex-specific patterns. Body fat percentage had a negative impact on COD-AG in boys, while the optimal lower limb length proportion positively influenced COD due to enhanced maneuverability. Maturation affected sensorimotor abilities in girls. The findings suggest a need for a tailored approach to COD-AG development based on sex-specific considerations in adolescent volleyball players.

Bibliometric study of association rule-market basket analysis

Association rule-market basket analysis (AR-MBA) is a data mining technique for finding distinguished relationship patterns from a collection of items. The application of AR-MBA is also increasingly widespread, starting from retail and hotels to hospitals. So, bibliometrics related to AR-MBA needs to be done to reveal what research opportunities can be later carried out by reviewing and analyzing publications about AR-MBA. 91 bibliographies in 1 decade from 2012-2022 were collected using Harzing's Publish or Perish (PoP). VOSviewer is also employed to map authorship and publication topic trends. This paper is innovative because it identifies trends and future research directions in data mining, specifically in association with AR-MBA. The findings show publication productivity, top authors, types of publications, annual topic trends within a decade, term distribution, most cited and most influential articles, and research gaps that can be opportunities for further research.

Organizational homophily of family firms: The case of family corporate venture capital

ABSTRACT Through the lens of organizational homophily, our study analyzes the network behavior of family firms in the high-risk context of family corporate venture capital (CVC). Specifically, we examine family corporate venture capitalists’ patterns in syndicate partner relationships using a global sample of 3,130 coinvestments from 2007 to 2022. We find that family corporate venture capitalists are more likely than their nonfamily counterparts to coinvest with syndicate partners who possess a similar wealth of experience in terms of overall investment experience, industry experience, and specialization. Family corporate venture capitalists follow the expected homophilic behavior of family firms when selecting nonfamily partners. This phenomenon is less pronounced in larger syndicates wherein individual syndicate partners may have less influence and there may be looser bonds between coinvestors. Our study contributes to research on family firms’ venturing and social capital as well as on CVC syndication.

블록모델링을 활용한 한국자동차산업 공급네트워크 구조 분석

This study empirically analyzes the supply network of the Korean automotive industry through CONCOR, a structural equivalence analysis, and blockmodeling. Using equivalence analysis, it is possible to classify nodes based on occupying the same position in the network and identify the relationship pattern between them, even if it is not based on direct connections between nodes. The results of the study are as follows First, the supply network of the Korean automobile industry was divided into six blocks, and the six domestic automakers belonged to different blocks. Second, we found that blocks 4 and 5 were significantly larger than blocks 1 and 2 in terms of attributes such as sales and total assets. Finally, the relational characteristics between the blocks suggest that block 5 plays a pivotal role in the supply network of the Korean automobile industry. The theoretical significance of this study is that it is the first to apply the concept of structural equivalence to the field of SCM research, providing a new way to systematically understand the structure of large and complex supply networks. In addition, from a practical perspective, it can help managers to view and understand the entire supply network from a macro perspective.

Moving around the system: a way of working clinically using Bowen family systems theory

AbstractDr Murray Bowen, developer of Bowen family systems theory (BFST), had this to say to clients about working in family systems: if you get bogged down in one area, move into another (Bowen & Kerr, 1985). This statement, along with the knowledge of BFST, offered an inspiration for thinking about a method of therapy. This article highlights a method of working with an individual through a systemic lens. Two ideas are integral to this focus. One is that a client can move more easily into observing self within the system when they are not just observing self in one context or relationship but rather looking at how they function in different contexts or relationships. And second, by moving into different contexts of the system, the therapist is better able to manage the tendency towards symptom focus and stay centred on the work of differentiation. A therapist can truly have a stadium view of the system when speaking with the client about how they function in different areas of life. This method defined happens in three phases: in phase 1, the client observes themselves in their system in different contexts and looks for patterns in their functioning; in phase 2, the client takes this new self‐recognition and experiments with different ways of being in one context; and in phase 3, the insights gained from experiments in one context are applied in other contexts. Both client and clinician will benefit from less symptom focus and increased ability to observe patterns in relationships, both of which are core tenets of the work of differentiation in BFST.

Longitudinal trajectories in recovery capital and associations with substance use among adult drug treatment court clients

BackgroundRecovery capital (RC) refers to the resources individuals use to support substance use disorder (SUD) recovery. Individuals with SUD who are involved with the criminal justice system often have limited RC. Drug treatment courts (DTCs), including traditional drug treatment courts (tDTCs) and opioid intervention courts (OICs), can link clients to important sources of RC in the short-term, but few studies have assessed RC longitudinally. MethodsThe current study analyzed five waves of data from a one-year longitudinal study on substance use and RC collected from clients of tDTCs and OICs (n=165, 52% male, 75% non-Hispanic White, Age=21–67 years). Mixed-effects models examined (1) within-person trends over time in RC, (2) individual characteristics associated with differences and changes in RC, and (3) patterns of relationships between RC and substance use over time. We also tested differences by court type. ResultsFirst, OIC participants had lower RC at baseline relative to tDTC participants, and there was considerable within-person variability in RC over time. Second, the effect of a high school diploma/GED at baseline on RC change over time was greater for OIC relative to tDTC participants. Third, there was a negative concurrent within-person association between drug use and RC that became stronger over time for OIC relative to tDTC participants. ConclusionsThis study is among the first to examine longitudinal, within-person trajectories in RC. Results revealed important within-person variability over time in RC that was linked to education and drug use, particularly among OIC clients. Findings could help inform DTC treatment approaches.

Genome-wide investigation of HD-ZIP gene family and functional characterization of BnaHDZ149 and BnaHDZ22 in salt and drought response in Brassica napus L.

HD-ZIP proteins comprise a plant-specific transcription factor family, which play pivotal roles in plant development and adaptation to ever-changing environment. Although HD-ZIP family members have been identified in some plant species, so far our knowledge about HD-ZIP genes in rapeseed is still limited. In this study, 178 Brassica napus HD-ZIP (BnaHDZ) family members were identified in the rapeseed genome. The phylogenetic relationship, chromosomal locations, intron-exon structures, motif composition, and expression patterns of the BnaHDZ members were analyzed. The BnaHDZ family can be phylogenetically divided into four categories (Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ). Genome-wide transcriptome analysis revealed that most of the HD-ZIP I members respond to at least one abiotic stress. Two closely homologous stress-responsive HD-ZIP Ⅰ genes, BnaHDZ22 and BnaHDZ149, were identified to be involved in drought and salt responses, and selected for further functional characterization. Overexpressing BnaHDZ149 in rapeseed increased salt sensitivity of the transgenic plants, whereas overexpressing BnaHDZ22 increased sensitivity of the transgenic plants to polyethylene glycol (PEG)-simulated drought stress. This research provides not only a comprehensive landscape of BnaHDZ genes, but also a theoretical basis for elucidating the molecular mechanism of the abiotic stress responses of the HD-ZIP family in rapeseed.

Characterizing the defense industry for risk management: a systems approach

PurposeManagement and risk techniques within industries have been studied from various disciplines in nondefense-affiliated industries. Given the assumption that these techniques, strategies and mitigations used in one industry apply to other similar industries, this paper examines the defense industry for risk assessment. We characterize interactions for onward application to risk identification in the defense industry.Design/methodology/approachThis research employs a systems theory approach to the characterization of industry interactions, using three dimensions including environment, boundaries and relationships. It develops a framework for identifying relationship types within system-of-systems (SoS) environments by analyzing the features of interactions that occur in such environments.FindingsThe study’s findings show that different systems environments within the defense industry SoS exhibit different interaction characteristics and hence display different relationship patterns, which can indicate potential vulnerabilities.Research limitations/implicationsBy employing interaction as a means for evaluating potential risks, this research emphasizes the role played by relationship factors in reducing perceived risks and simultaneously increasing trust.Originality/valueThis paper intends to develop an initial snapshot of the relationship status of the Swedish defense industry in light of the global consolidation in this industry, which is a relevant contextual contribution.

Professional's Views on the 'Nordic Paradox' in a Low Intimate Partner Violence Prevalence Country.

The apparently contradictory co-existence of high levels of gender equality and intimate partner violence against women (IPVAW) found in Nordic countries has been termed the Nordic Paradox. The aim of this study was to examine how the Nordic Paradox is discussed and explained by Spanish professionals working in the IPVAW field. Five focus groups (n = 19) and interviews with key informants (n = 10) were conducted. Four main categories of possible explanations for the Nordic Paradox were identified: Macro-micro disconnect (i.e., discordance between individual beliefs and behaviors and macro-social norms of gender equality), IPVAW as multicausal (i.e., IPVAW defined as a multicausal phenomenon that does not necessarily have to be associated with gender equality), cultural patterns of social relationships (i.e., the role of social relationships and the way people relate to each other in the Nordic countries), and backlash effect (i.e., men's reaction to greater equality for women). Although this study does not provide a final explanation for the Nordic paradox, its results provide us with a better understanding of the phenomenon and can help to advance research in this field.

Assessment of biorational larvicides and botanical oils against Culex quinquefasciatus Say (Diptera: Culicidae) larvae in laboratory conditions

Mosquitoes are known vectors that transmit deadly diseases to millions of people across the globe. The reliance on synthetic insecticides has been the sole way to combat mosquito vectors for decades. In recent years, the extensive use of conventional insecticides in mosquito suppression has led to significant pesticide resistance and serious human health hazards. In this light, investigating the potential application of biorational compounds for vector management has drawn significant attention. We, hereby, evaluated the efficacy of three microbial derivative biorational insecticides, abamectin, spinosad, and buprofezin, and two botanical oils, neem (Azadirachta indica A. Juss) and karanja oil (Pongamia pinnata Linn.) against the Culex quinquefasciatus under laboratory conditions. The fourth-instar C. quinquefasciatus larvae were exposed to different concentrations of the selected larvicides and lethality was estimated based on LC50 and LT50 with Probit analysis. All larvicides showed concentration-dependent significant effects on survival and demonstrated larvicidal activity against C. quinquefasciatus larvae. However, abamectin exerted the highest toxicity (LC50 = 10.36 ppm), exhibited statistically significant effects on C. quinquefasciatus larval mortality, followed by spinosad (LC50 = 21.32 ppm) and buprofezin (LC50 = 56.34 ppm). Abamectin caused larval mortality ranged from 30.00 to 53.33 % and 53.00–70.00 % at 06 and 07 h after treatment (HAT), respectively. In the case of botanicals, karanja oil (LC50 = 216.61 ppm) was more lethal (more than 1.5 times) and had a shorter lethal time than neem oil (LC50 = 330.93 ppm) and showed a classic pattern of relationship between concentrations and mortality over time. Overall, the present study highlighted the potential of deploying new generation biorational pesticides and botanicals in mosquito vector control programs.

Analisis Perubahan Sosial Dan Budaya Masyarakat Pegunungan Sebagai Dampak Dari Globalisasi

Globalization is a phenomenon that involves connections between nations in various aspects of life, such as changing the economics and technology, social structures and cultural values throughout the world. These changes can be seen in social relationship pattern between others that occur in Indonesian villages, the local traditions that were previously collective and deep are changed becoming individualism through the media and global connectivity. Globalization causes various problems in the field of culture, for example: loss of the original culture of a region or village, the erosion of cultural values, decreased sense of nationalism and patriotism, loss of kinship and mutual relationship, loss of self-confidence, lifestyles that are not in accordance with customs. So that education can become a driving force for positive change without eliminating the cultural identity of local communities. The approach used in this research is a qualitative with phenomenology type. This research is located in Gununggeni village, Probolinggo district. The results of this research explained that there have been significant changes in Gununggeni Village as the impact of globalization and modernization which changed various aspects of people's lives, including lifestyle, values and economic structure. This change includes in fashion, food, technology, and social values. The use of mobile phones access to social media, and the changes in business infrastructure are strong indicators of modernization in the village. Even though there is adaptation to global trends, traditional values such as mutual relationship with other and togetherness are still strongly maintained in Gununggeni Village. This is one of social change complexity taking place, where some of traditional values are still exist, but while others becoming change.

The longitudinal analysis for the association between smoking and the risk of depressive symptoms

BackgroundDespite high smoking rate in people with depressive symptoms, there is ongoing debate about relationship between smoking and depressive symptoms.MethodsStudy participants were 57,441 Korean men. We collected their baseline data between 2011 and 2012, and conducted follow-up from 2013 to 2019. They were categorized by smoking status (never: < 100 cigarettes smoking in life time, former: currently quitting smoking, and current smoker: currently smoking), smoking amount (pack/day and pack-year) and urine cotinine excretion. The development of depressive symptoms was determined in CES-D score ≥ 16. Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the multivariable-adjusted hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for depressive symptoms in relation to smoking status, smoking amount, and urine cotinine excretion.ResultsDuring 6.7 years of median follow-up, the risk of depressive symptoms increased in order of never (reference), former (HR = 1.08, 95% CI: 1.01—1.15) and current smoker (HR = 1.24, 95% CI: 1.16—1.32). Among current smoker, the risk of depressive symptoms increased proportionally to daily smoking amount (< 1 pack; HR = 1.21, 95% CI: 1.13—1.29, and ≥ 1 pack; HR = 1.34, 95% CI: 1.23 – 1.45). This pattern of relationship was consistently observed for pack-year in former smoker and current smoker. Additionally, urine cotinine excretion was proportionally associated with the risk of depressive symptoms.ConclusionExposure to smoking was associated with the increased risk of depressive symptoms. Dose dependent relationship was observed between smoking amount and the risk of depressive symptoms.

Elevated AIP is associated with the prevalence of MAFLD in the US adults: evidence from NHANES 2017-2018.

Atherogenic Index of plasma (AIP) is closely related to metabolic abnormalities. But as of now, there is no definitive conclusion on the dose-response relationship pattern between AIP and metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). The objective of this study was to provide a fresh insight for understanding the intrinsic link between AIP and the prevalence of MAFLD by exploring the dose-response pattern between AIP and MAFLD. A total of 9254 participants received the survey and 1090 participants were finally included according to the screening criteria. To evaluate the association between AIP and the prevalence of MAFLD based on weighted multivariate logistic regression. Sensitivity analysis of the association between AIP and MAFLD was performed using propensity score matching (PSM). Restrictive cubic splines (RCS) were used to identify patterns of dose-response relationships between AIP and MAFLD, and receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves were used to evaluate the predictive ability of AIP and traditional lipid parameters for MAFLD. In this study, a total of 563 participants were found to have MAFLD. The results of weighted multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that, after adjusting for sex and age, participants in the highest quartile (Q4) of AIP had a significantly increased risk of developing MAFLD compared to those in the lowest quartile (Q1) (Model 2: OR = 9.03, 95% CI 4.75-17.17). A similar trend was observed in the fully adjusted model (Model 3: OR = 3.85, 95% CI 1.55-9.52). The RCS analysis revealed a linear dose-response association between AIP and MAFLD(P for crude non-linearity = 0.087). This association remained significant after accounting for potential confounding variables(P for adjusted non-linearity = 0.663). The ROC curve results suggest that AIP performs better than traditional lipid indicators in predicting MAFLD (AUC = 0.732, 95%CI 0.705-0.758). A linear dose-response relationship exists between AIP and MAFLD, suggesting that as AIP increases, so does the risk of developing MAFLD.
