Socio-Cultural Potential for Low Delivery Assistance by Nakes in Working Area of the Bibida Health Center, Paniai Regency, Central Papua

One method that can reduce maternal and newborn mortality rates is delivery carried out by health workers. Most maternal and newborn complications and deaths occur during the labor period. This happens because the assistance is provided by health workers who do not have midwifery (professional) competence. This study aims to identify factors that contribute to the low level of delivery assistance by health workers in the Bibida Community Health Center working area. In 2021, 56.3 percent of births will be assisted by health workers, and 32% will be at the Bibida Community Health Center. Quantitative research was conducted using a cross-sectional analytical design. The research was conducted in the Bibida Community Health Center working area in Paniai Regency, Central Papua, from October 2023 to November 2023. This research involved all mothers who had just given birth who were in the Bibida Community Health Center working area during July, August and September. The total population technique was used to collect 35 samples. Use of computerization to process univariate and bivariate data. Research resultdelivery assistance by non-health workers 62.9% andculture does not support 51.4%. With p value=0.000, the results of statistical analysis show that there is a socio-cultural relationship. It is recommended that pregnant women give birth at health workers and in health facilities. In addition, it is important for midwives to work together with local community leaders and related sectors in encouraging people to give birth with health workers.

Measurement Efficiency for Technology‐Enhanced and Multiple‐Choice Items in a K–12 Mathematics Accountability Assessment

AbstractThe increasing use of computerization in the testing industry and the need for items potentially measuring higher‐order skills have led educational measurement communities to develop technology‐enhanced (TE) items and conduct validity studies on the use of TE items. Parallel to this goal, the purpose of this study was to collect validity evidence comparing item information functions, expected information values, and measurement efficiencies (item information per time unit) between multiple‐choice (MC) and technology‐enhanced (TE) items. The data came from K–12 mathematics large‐scale accountability assessments. The study results were mainly interpreted descriptively, and the presence of specific patterns between MC and TE items was examined across grades and depth of knowledge levels. Although many earlier researchers pointed out that TE items were not as efficient as MC items, the results from the study point to ways that TE items might provide more information and were more than or equally efficient as MC items overall.

APPROACH SELECTION METHOD FOR PROJECT PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT AND ITS APPLICATION

Project portfolio management has evolved in recent decades from an empirical field to a field with advanced management technologies, including the active use of information technology. A number of standards and guidelines for project portfolio management have been created. Many dozens of specialized software tools have been developed. The effectiveness of an organization's project portfolio management significantly depends on the chosen management approach, as well as the level of use of project portfolio management capabilities. The level of utilization of project portfolio management capabilities is the level of maturity of an organization in this area. The aim of the article is to apply the method of project portfolio management approach selection. The article proposes to carry out the selection of a project portfolio management approach by solving a two-criteria problem. The first criterion is the risks inherent in this approach in the management of the organization's project portfolio under specific conditions. The less these risks, the more qualitative approach is applied. The second criterion - the costs of applying the evaluated approach. The application of the proposed method to improve project portfolio management in one of the technical universities in Ukraine was considered. Risks from non-performance or imperfect performance of portfolio management processes at the university were assessed. We also assessed the existing costs of managing the portfolio of projects. To improve the quality of management at the university, it is advisable to improve the execution of portfolio management processes and implement those processes that are not yet performed. This can be done by implementing a computerized portfolio and project management system for the university. Jira Portfolio Commercial can be used as such a system. With the use of computerization, new processes for project portfolio management will appear. For a number of existing processes in the organization, employee payroll costs will be reduced. For many processes, risks from non-performance or imperfect execution will be reduced. Computerization of project portfolio management will enable to reduce management costs by 1.8% and risks by 49.4%, i.e. almost by half.

Pengaruh Penggunaan Teknologi Informasi Terhadap Kinerja Pegawai Kantor Kecamatan Bulukumpa Kabupaten Bulukumba

The background of this research is that there are still ASN employees at the Bulukumpa District Office who do not understand how to use computerized technology and are still reluctant to increase the potential for computerized use. Even though today, the use of information technology is very supportive of the success of the work of ASN employees. While the use of computerization in agencies is interconnected, the more facilities provided to users, the easier it is for users to access the data needed to complete tasks within the agency. This research was conducted by distributing questionnaires to all employees of the Bulukumpa District Office, totaling 22 respondents who were used as research samples. Based on the test results, the hypothesis can be accepted, that the use of information technology has a significant effect on employee performance. Based on the results of the simple regression test, it shows a significant influence between information technology on employee performance at the Bulukumpa District Office of 76.6%. This means that the magnitude of the influence of computerized technology on employee performance in completing work using computerization is 76.6%.

Driving and cognitive function in people with stroke and healthy age-matched controls

ABSTRACT The decision to return to driving is both complex and difficult. It is often made with clinician support, perhaps on the basis of results from standardized paper and pencil tests, and less frequently an assessment of on-road driving. However, the resources required and inherent reliability and validity challenges suggest that greater use of computerization and driving simulation may play a useful role in the assessment process. In this study, thirty-six age-matched healthy and post-stroke drivers completed standard psychometric assessments (including NART, MMSE, BADS, IADL), computer delivered cognitive assessments (including SART, N-Back, Simple Reaction Time), as well as simulated and on-road assessments of driving. While significantly different in terms of psychometric and computer-based assessments, the healthy and post-stroke drivers who completed the on-road test did not differ. In contrast, driving in the portable simulator showed impaired driving, on some but not all driving manoeuvres, for those who failed the on-road test or had voluntarily ceased to drive. These results are discussed in terms of the implications they have for the multi-faceted nature of driving as a skill, and the need to involve simulation when assessing fitness to drive.

We have built model using SVM (support vector machine) classifier. Results are compared with standard chart of soil health contains from the agriculture laboratory. Our detection accuracy lies between 95 to 99%.

Transitions from Telephone Surveys to Self-Administered and Mixed-Mode Surveys: AAPOR Task Force Report

Abstract Telephone surveys have been a ubiquitous method of collecting survey data, but the environment for telephone surveys is changing. Many surveys are transitioning from telephone to self-administration or combinations of modes for both recruitment and survey administration. Survey organizations are conducting these transitions from telephone to mixed modes with only limited guidance from existing empirical literature and best practices. This article summarizes findings by an AAPOR Task Force on how these transitions have occurred for surveys and research organizations in general. We find that transitions from a telephone to a self-administered or mixed-mode survey are motivated by a desire to control costs, to maintain or improve data quality, or both. The most common mode to recruit respondents when transitioning is mail, but recent mixed-mode studies use only web or mail and web together as survey administration modes. Although early studies found that telephone response rates met or exceeded response rates to the self-administered or mixed modes, after about 2013, response rates to the self-administered or mixed modes tended to exceed those for the telephone mode, largely because of a decline in the telephone mode response rates. Transitioning offers opportunities related to improved frame coverage and geographic targeting, delivery of incentives, visual design of an instrument, and cost savings, but challenges exist related to selecting a respondent within a household, length of a questionnaire, differences across modes in use of computerization to facilitate skip patterns and other questionnaire design features, and lack of an interviewer for respondent motivation and clarification. Other challenges related to surveying youth, conducting surveys in multiple languages, collecting nonsurvey data such as biomeasures or consent to link to administrative data, and estimation with multiple modes are also prominent.

WORK EXPERIENCE OF THE MULTI-PROFILE HOSPITAL ON AUTOMATION OF EXPERT ACTIVITIES IN THE HEALTH CARE QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Aim. Improvement of the quality of medical services provided due to a precise organization of the health care quality management system, based on the implementation of the requirements of existing regulatory documents determining expert work and its subsequent automation.Materials and methods. The quality management system in the institution is based on an active multifunctional organizational structure able to respond quickly to the detection of defects in providing medical care through the use of computerization of all areas of its activities. The automated control system of the diagnostic and treatment process proposed by us allows moving from the formal compliance with requirements established by the current regulatory documents to full management of the quality of medical care in the institution through comprehensive automation of the structure of internal quality control of medical care that ensures monitoring of all directions of the institution with the formation of automated accounting and reporting forms.Results. The introduction into the practical work of an automated quality management system for providing medical care made it possible to reduce by 5 times the time for obtaining of operative medical information, to reduce defects caused by poor registration of medical documentation by 46%, to reduce the unjustified delay of patients in the hospital by 10%, to reduce the number of cases of repeated hospitalization , due to inadequate inpatient medical care by 11%, to minimize delays at medical sub-commission for the extension of sick leave almost to zero cases.Conclusion. The automated control system of the diagnostic and treatment process proposed by us, in contrast to the existing ones at the present time, allows us to move from formal compliance with requirements established by the current normative documents to full-fledged management of the quality of medical care in the institution through comprehensive automation of the internal quality control structure of medical care providing monitoring of all activities of the institution and achievement of the recommended regulatory documents criteria of quality of medical care.

Hypoglycemia Reduction Strategies in the ICU.

We reviewed the strategies associated with hypoglycemia risk reduction among critically ill non-pregnant adult patients. Hypoglycemia in the ICU has been associated with increased mortality in a number of studies. Insulin dosing and glucose monitoring rules, response to impending hypoglycemia, use of computerization, and attention to modifiable factors extrinsic to insulin algorithms may affect the risk for hypoglycemia. Recurring use of intravenous (IV) bolus doses of insulin in insulin-resistant cases may reduce reliance upon higher IV infusion rates. In order to reduce the risk for hypoglycemia in the ICU, caregivers should define responses to interruption of continuous carbohydrate exposure, incorporate transitioning strategies upon initiation and interruption of IV insulin, define modifications of antihyperglycemic therapy in the presence of worsening renal function or chronic kidney disease, and anticipate the effects traceable to other medications and substances. Institutional and system-wide quality improvement efforts should assign priority to hypoglycemia prevention.

W(H)Ither the Tax Gap?

For decades, policy makers and politicians have railed against the “tax gap,” or the difference between what taxpayers are legally obligated to pay in taxes and what they actually pay in taxes. To close the gap, Congress has instituted numerous reforms, with varying degrees of success. Notwithstanding these efforts, the tax gap has largely remained intact, and, if anything, its size has gradually grown over the last several decades. However, the tax gap may well begin to diminish in size (or “wither” away), if not immediately then over time. Three developments will help narrow the tax gap’s size. First, the ubiquity of credit cards, debit cards, and smartphone payment apps has purged cash—the erstwhile driving engine of the tax gap—from its use in many economic transactions. Second, the availability of third-party sources of information, combined with the universal use of computerization to store, access, and analyze information, has significantly curtailed a taxpayer’s ability to hide income here in the United States or overseas. Third, broad economic trends such as concentration and globalization have generated a workforce dynamic in which taxpayers generally are employed by large business enterprises (where individual tax compliance is fairly high) rather than in traditional mom-and-pop businesses (where individual tax compliance is typically low). The implications associated with a lower tax gap are vast. Even beyond the usual considerations associated with greater tax compliance (e.g., increased revenues, reduced noncompliance-induced inefficiencies, and improved horizontal and vertical equity of tax burdens), taxpayers would experience a shift in the labor market and an adjustment in the prices paid for consumer goods and services. Also, rather than conducting audits and deterring noncompliance, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) would be able to dedicate a greater share of its limited resources to other pressing agenda items, such as assisting taxpayers in their compliance endeavors. There are, of course, other countervailing economic trends that may subvert the forces that will act to reduce the tax gap, so its future path remains highly uncertain (and hence the alternative use of “whither”). Also, for a whole host of reasons, especially reductions in IRS funding, the tax gap will not be closed anytime soon. Nevertheless, the tide against tax noncompliance may finally be turning.

ACCREDITATION OF HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS IN RUSSIA

Although the formal evaluation of higher education by state authorities has a long history in Russia, the creation of a system of accreditation began in 1990 in order to meet the challenge of the setting up of private institutions of higher education. There are two kinds of accreditation: state accreditation and public accreditation. This article stresses the former because of the two types it is the most developed. Its objectivity is assured through the use of computerized procedures and visualization. Moreover, the use of computerization permits the simultaneous evaluation of higher education institutions and in general responds rapidly to changing conditions in the Russian Federation.

Special Issue on Intelligent Manufacturing Systems

Production engineering and manufacturing industries face difficulties in developing a new paradigm to cope with the post mass-production era. Consumers' preferences change very quickly and vary over a wide range of taste. A product's life cycle becomes shorter than shorter. Thus, rapid prototyping techniques have been requested, and some new concepts on manufacturing have been presented including Flexible Manufacturing System, Factory (or Flexible) Automation, Computer Integrated Manufacturing System, and Concurrent Engineering. After the termination of the cold war, many regional economies combined through international trade and dynamically evolved into global economies. Such change had significant effects on manufacturing industries and consequently on production engineering. As a new paradigm in the post mass-production era, the creation of manufacturing culture has been advocated by Prof. Hiroyuki Yoshikawa, President of University of Tokyo. It contains not only the movement towards standardization of conventional manufacturing knowledge but also the development of a global manufacturing system with use of computerization. At his advocation, the international research project of Intelligent Manufacturing Systems (IMS) was initiated. This bimonthly journal is a special issue on the IMS project and similar topics widely covering intelligent manufacturing systems. The former part of the contents is the description of the IMS project. It consists of the commentary articles quoted from the IMS news and the latest reports of IMS international test cases. The Japan IMS center publishes the IMS news and strongly supports the IMS project itself with collaboration of Ministry of International Trade and Industry of Japan (MITI). The authors of these reports are primarily enrolled in the actual responsibility to promote their projects and newly write the articles for this journal. I would like to thank the IMS center and each author for their contributions to this special issue on the IMS project. The latter part of the contents consists of the articles on the STandard for the Exchange of Product model data (STEP) and some technical papers on manufacturing. A conference report on the 2nd Japan-France Congress on Mechatronics is also provided in this issue. I would like to thank all contributors for their cooperation in creating this special issue. As can be easily seen, this issue focused on the forthcoming advancement on production engineering and manufacturing through the movement of Intelligent Manufacturing Systems. As the editor of this special issue on Intelligent Manufacturing Systems, I hope that the readers pay attention to this new movement and become involved in the near future.

Bird Conservation: The Science and the Action Report on the BOU Joint Conference, 6–10 April 1994

Summary Birds are hugely popular and the public demands their conservation. Ornithology has made a major contribution to nature conservation by virtue of this popular support. The value of birds as environmental indicators has been greatly enhanced by voluntary data collection on a wide scale over many years. Habitat loss and degradation are the main causes of species decline, even though other factors may contribute to extinction. More research should address the causes of decline at an early stage, while the chance of recovery is highest. The geographical ranges of native bird species should be maintained, both to avoid the risk of local or wider extinction and to enable people to enjoy them as part of their normal experience. To maintain species ranges. conservation must be incorporated in policies affecting the wider countryside and the sea. This is as important as managing protected areas. The management of protected areas can only be successful in the context of sympathetic management of the surrounding countryside. The Biodiversity Convention requires countries to produce national conservation plans and strategies. This offers ornithologists an unprecedented opportunity to contribute to conservation by developing explicit objectives and specific targets for the maintenance (or restoration) of numbers and distributions of species, and of extent and quality of habitats. Targets should be ambitious but realistic and be sufficiently precise as to be testable. Predictive models have the potential to support conservation advice, but traditional natural history studies have proved vital in the past and theory could not replace them. Detailed ecological research with long data runs is the ideal basis for conservation action. But urgency demands shorter studies, informed by ecological intuition and knowledge, and reaching specific recommendations for action. Conservation actions should be treated as experiments so that techniques can be improved progressively. This applies both to the management of nature reserves and to habitat management stemming from broader policy measures, for example in Environmentally Sensitive Areas. Monitoring across a wide species base is essential because the threats to wildlife are unpredictable. Birds have proven to be successful indicators because they are highly visible: are enthusiastically counted by volunteers: and respond to a wide variety of environmental impacts. Threshold levels, indicating the normal upper and lower levels of variation (for instance in numbers or breeding success), are needed in order to trigger prompt remedial action. Monitoring, research and consenration action must be taken forward internationally. Integrated and common approaches enable exchange of data and inforniation. and reinforce national actions across the range. Fxisting data need to be made more accessible by greater collaboration and openness, and by the use of computerization. Ornithologists need to build stronger partnerships, both with other biologists and with decision‐makers across the range of land‐use and economic policy. This will be helped by better communication built on clear but simple messages for non‐biologists. The training of future ecologists should take account of the wide range of skills required by the expanding discipline of conservation.
