Perilaku Sosial Pengurus Badan Eksekutif Mahasiswa Dalam Perspektif Etika Berorganisasi di Tingkat Universitas Palangka Raya

The existence of student organizations in tertiary institutions is important in the context of self-development of students themselves. This is confirmed by the Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 12 of 2012 concerning Higher Education article 77 concerning Student Organizations. There is an imbalance in the ideal organizational paradigm with field facts, the benefits of participating in the BEM UPR organization, the bargaining value of BEM UPR at the external level, as well as perceptions of BEM UPR's social behavior and organizational ethics, became the basis for researchers interested in studying by taking the title of the final project with the theme of ethics, namely " Social Behavior of Student Executive Board (BEM) Management in the Perspective of Organizational Ethics at the University of Palangka Raya Level. This thesis research aims to analyze the relationship between social behavior patterns of BEM UPR in relation to values and culture in work programs as organizational ethics, as well as educational aspects that can be studied therein. The research design uses qualitative methods with a phenomenological approach. The primary data are people who know in depth the social behavior of BEM Palangka Raya University. While the secondary data is the literature in accordance with the author's research title. Data was collected by observation techniques, interviews, and document collection. The results of the research that the authors obtained were the existence of an ethical culture in organizations. This culture is used for decision making both leaders and members of the organization. Perceptions of the BEM of Palangka Raya University as described in the research results tend to be more positive, because students make their circle of communication in the form of groups.

The Nature of Domestic Demand for Authentic Ethnic Experiences in Egypt: Exploring Egyptian Visitors’ Perspectives and Assessments of Bedouin Cultural Attractions

Much emphasis in the literature on Bedouin tourism in the Arab world has been given to the demands, perceptions, motivations and experiences of international tourists while domestic demands are not fully understood. Thus, this study challenges the status quo, being one of a few studies in which Egyptians are represented as tourists consuming Egyptian ethnic culture. A mix of qualitative research methods, including 29 semi-structured interviews with domestic visitors, observational data and document analysis, was employed to explore Egyptian visitors’ perspectives and assessments of Bedouin cultural attractions in Egypt. The findings revealed that the concept of experiencing existential authenticity through interactions with the workers and performers appeared to be outside the visitors’ sphere of thought, as they focused almost exclusively on tangible elements of the site offerings. This study has important implications for Bedouin tourism suppliers as well as tourism researchers. Egyptian visitors can be viewed as a powerful potential market for Bedouin attractions. Thus, site management should reconsider their approach to Egyptian visitors, as well as rethink the mission and goals of their site. Theoretically, the findings of this study strongly contest the notion that objective authenticity is no longer essential in ethnic tourism

Pengembangan Teknologi Air Bersih Masyarakat Dalam Rangkaian Percepatan MDG's 2015 Di Kabupaten Malang

MDG's (Millenium Development Goal's) 2015 menjadi salah satu komitmen percepatan sanitasi yang harus dicapai di seluruh wilayah Indonesia. Kondisi pelayanan air bersih penduduk Indonesia masih tergolong kurang memenuhi aspek keberlanjutan di segi kualitas dan kuantitas. Selain itu, pemerataan pelayanan penyediaan air bersih masih kurang, terutama pada daerah perdesaan. Maka dalam rangka percepatan capaian akses air bersih di wilayah Indonesia, perlu adanya evaluasi dari aspek teknologi, sosial, dan budaya. Pada studi kasus program percepatan sanitasi, Kabupaten Malang, Desa Argosari menjadi salah satu kawasan strategis yang memiliki potensi sumber daya alam sebagai wilayah konservasi lingkungan dalam pelestarian hutan dan perlindungan air bersih. Sehingga memiliki potensi sumber air (mata air) yang berkualitas. Namun permasalahan yang yang terjadi, hampir seluruh masyarakat tidak memiliki akses air bersih yang layak. Sehingga, penerapan teknologi distribusi air bersih diaplikasikan untuk meningkatkan kapasitas penduduk yang terlayani dengan air bersih dan diharapkan dapat mempercepat capian sanitasi Indonesia di tahun 2015

Parent and self-report health-related quality of life measures in young patients with Tourette syndrome

Tourette syndrome is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by tics and comorbid behavioral problems. This study compared child- and parent-reported quality of life and everyday functioning. We assessed 75 children with Tourette syndrome, of which 42 (56%) had comorbid conditions (obsessive-compulsive disorder = 25; attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder = 6; both comorbidities = 4). All patients completed psychometric instruments, including the Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome-Quality of Life Scale for Children and Adolescents (child report) and the Child Tourette's Syndrome Impairment Scale (parent report). Data were compared for patients with pure Tourette syndrome, Tourette syndrome + obsessive-compulsive disorder, Tourette syndrome + attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, and Tourette syndrome + both comorbidities. There were no group differences in quality of life. However, there were differences for total, school, and home activities impairment scores. Children and parents may not share similar views about the impact of Tourette syndrome on functioning. The measurement of health-related quality of life in Tourette syndrome is more complex in children than adults

Supergravity Higgs Inflation and Shift Symmetry in Electroweak Theory

We present a model of inflation in a supergravity framework in the Einstein frame where the Higgs field of the next to minimal supersymmetric standard model (NMSSM) plays the role of the inflaton. Previous attempts which assumed non-minimal coupling to gravity failed due to a tachyonic instability of the singlet field during inflation. A canonical K\"{a}hler potential with \textit{minimal coupling} to gravity can resolve the tachyonic instability but runs into the $\eta$-problem. We suggest a model which is free of the $\eta$-problem due to an additional coupling in the K\"{a}hler potential which is allowed by the Standard Model gauge group. This induces directions in the potential which we call K-flat. For a certain value of the new coupling in the (N)MSSM, the K\"{a}hler potential is special, because it can be associated with a certain shift symmetry for the Higgs doublets, a generalization of the shift symmetry for singlets in earlier models. We find that K-flat direction has $H_u^0=-H_d^{0*}.$ This shift symmetry is broken by interactions coming from the superpotential and gauge fields. This direction fails to produce successful inflation in the MSSM but produces a viable model in the NMSSM. The model is specifically interesting in the Peccei-Quinn (PQ) limit of the NMSSM. In this limit the model can be confirmed or ruled-out not just by cosmic microwave background observations but also by axion searches.Comment: matches the published version at JCA
