PENGARUH PENDAPATAN TERHADAP PEMILIHAN MODA TRANSPORTASI (Studi Kasus: Jln. Piere Tendean)

Pemilihan moda merupakan tahapan penting dalam perencanaan transportasi. Transportasi yang handal, aman dan nyaman merupakan beberapa alasan responden untuk memilih moda transportasi yang akan di gunakan dalam mencapai tempat tujuan. Kota manado merupakan kota dengan tingkat penggunaan mobilitas yang tinggi khusunya di Jalan Piere Tendean. Jumlah pendapatan yang beragam membuat seseorang harus memilih kriteria moda transportasi yang akan digunakan sesuai dengan pendapatan yang didapat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisa karakteristik pelaku perjalanan, serta mengetahui besarnya probabilitas dalam pemilihan moda.Survei dilakukan dengan penyebaran kuesioner kepada 600 responden berisi karakteristik pelaku perjalanan, meliputi sosio ekonomi, dengan menggunakan metode Stated Preference, kemudian diolah dengan analisa regresi untuk mendapatkan persamaan utilitas. Selanjutnya dari persamaan utilitas dibentuk berdasarkan pendapatan untuk menganalisa pengaruh pendapatan terhadap pemilihan moda transportasi. Pemodelan pemilihan moda dilakukan dengan Model Multinomial Logit.Hasil yang di peroleh menunjukkan bahwa terdapat 46% responden berpendapatan rendah, 45% responden berpendapatan menengah dan 9% responden berpendapatan tinggi, dengan beberapa faktor yang mempengaruhi pemilihan seperti, tingkat Pendidikan, jenis pekerjaan kepemilikan kendaraan pribadi serta moda transportasi yang aman dan efektif bagi responden. Selanjutnya dari hasil penelitian menunjukan probabilitas pemilihan moda dari keseluruhan moda transportasi, kendaraan pribadi memiliki probabilitas paling tinggi pada setiap golongan seperti pada golongan pendapatan rendah sebesar 0.38, pendapatan menengah 0.35 dan pendapatan tinggi sebesar 0.45, sedangkan untuk Kendaraan online memiliki probabilitas, untuk golongan pendapatan rendah 0.35, pendapatan menengah 0.35 dan pendapatan tinggi 0.33, dan untuk angkutan umum memiliki probabilitas paling rendah yaitu untuk golongan pendapatan rendah 0.25, pendapatan menengah 0.27, dan pendapatan tinggi 0.20.

Trust in and use of COVID-19 information sources differs by health literacy among college students

People’s health information-seeking behaviors differ by their health literacy levels. This study assessed the relationship between health literacy and college students’ levels of trust in and use of a range of health information sources of COVID-19. We collected data from August to December 2020 among college students (n = 763) through an online survey. We used a health literacy measure containing three self-reported survey questions, developed by the CDC. We assessed the extent to which participants trusted and used any of the sixteen different sources of information about COVID-19. Respondents reported high levels of trusting and using COVID-19 information from the CDC, health care providers, the WHO, state/county/city health departments, and official government websites when compared to other sources. After controlling for demographic characteristics (i.e., gender, age, race, ethnicity, and income), those who reported having lower health literacy were significantly less likely to trust and use COVID-19 information from these health authorities when compared to participants who reported having higher health literacy. Students with lower self-reported health literacy indicated not trusting or using official health authority sources for COVID-19 information. Relying on low-quality information sources could create and reinforce people’s misperceptions regarding the virus, leading to low compliance with COVID-19-related public health measures and poor health outcomes.Hlth Sci, Couns and Couns Psyc (HCCP

Mapping ergonomics application to improve SMEs working condition in industrially developing countries: a critical review

In industrially developing countries (IDC), small and medium enterprises (SMEs) account for the highest proprotion of employment. Unfortunately, the working conditions in SMEs are often very poor and expose employees to a potentially wide range of health and safety risks. This paper presents a comprehensive review of 161 articles related to ergonomics application in SMEs, using Indonesia as a case study. The aim of this paper is to investigate the extent of ergonomics application and identify areas that can be improved to promote effective ergonomics for SMEs in IDC. The most urgent issue found is the need for adopting participatory approach in contrast to the commonly implemented top-down approach. Some good practices in ergonomics application were also revealed from the review, e.g. a multidisciplinary approach, unsophisticated and low-cost solutions, and recognising the importance of productivity. The review also found that more work is still required to achieve appropriate cross-cultural adaptation of ergonomics application. Practitioner Summary: Despite continuous efforts in addressing ergonomics issues in SMEs of IDC, workers are still exposed to poor work conditions. We reviewed factual-based evidence of current ergonomics application to inform future strategies of ergonomics in IDC, using Indonesia as a case study

ATLANTIC EPIPHYTES: a data set of vascular and non-vascular epiphyte plants and lichens from the Atlantic Forest

Epiphytes are hyper-diverse and one of the frequently undervalued life forms in plant surveys and biodiversity inventories. Epiphytes of the Atlantic Forest, one of the most endangered ecosystems in the world, have high endemism and radiated recently in the Pliocene. We aimed to (1) compile an extensive Atlantic Forest data set on vascular, non-vascular plants (including hemiepiphytes), and lichen epiphyte species occurrence and abundance; (2) describe the epiphyte distribution in the Atlantic Forest, in order to indicate future sampling efforts. Our work presents the first epiphyte data set with information on abundance and occurrence of epiphyte phorophyte species. All data compiled here come from three main sources provided by the authors: published sources (comprising peer-reviewed articles, books, and theses), unpublished data, and herbarium data. We compiled a data set composed of 2,095 species, from 89,270 holo/hemiepiphyte records, in the Atlantic Forest of Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay, recorded from 1824 to early 2018. Most of the records were from qualitative data (occurrence only, 88%), well distributed throughout the Atlantic Forest. For quantitative records, the most common sampling method was individual trees (71%), followed by plot sampling (19%), and transect sampling (10%). Angiosperms (81%) were the most frequently registered group, and Bromeliaceae and Orchidaceae were the families with the greatest number of records (27,272 and 21,945, respectively). Ferns and Lycophytes presented fewer records than Angiosperms, and Polypodiaceae were the most recorded family, and more concentrated in the Southern and Southeastern regions. Data on non-vascular plants and lichens were scarce, with a few disjunct records concentrated in the Northeastern region of the Atlantic Forest. For all non-vascular plant records, Lejeuneaceae, a family of liverworts, was the most recorded family. We hope that our effort to organize scattered epiphyte data help advance the knowledge of epiphyte ecology, as well as our understanding of macroecological and biogeographical patterns in the Atlantic Forest.
