Jumlah Anak Ideal Menurut Pasangan Usia Subur di Kecamatan Mlati, Kabupaten Sleman, Daerah Istimewa YOGYAKARTA

Nilai anak merupakan sebuah konsep yang menjabarkan cara pandang orang tua terhadap anak yang didasarkan pada pertimbangan-pertimbangan tertentu dalam memiliki anak. Cara pandang tentang jumlah anak ideal bagi orang tua dipengaruhi, oleh: kondisi demografi, sosial, dan ekonomi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kondisi pandangan Pasangan Usia Subur (PUS) tentang jumlah anak ideal dan mengetahui hubungan kondisi demografi, sosial, dan ekonomi terhadap jumlah anak ideal di Kecamatan Mlati. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapatnya kecenderungan PUS untuk memiliki jumlah anak ideal sebanyak 1 atau 2 anak. Hasil analisis korelasi menunjukan adanya hubungan antara kondisi demografi, sosial, dan ekonomi dengan jumlah anak ideal. Hubungan kondisi demografi dengan jumlah anak ideal menunjukan bahwa semakin tinggi kondisi demografi maka PUS akan lebih fleksibel dalam menentukan jumlah anak ideal. Hubungan kondisi sosial dengan jumlah anak ideal terdapatnya kecenderungan untuk memiliki jumlah anak ideal yang sedikit pada PUS dengan kedudukan sosial yang tinggi. Hubungan kondisi ekonomi dengan jumlah anak ideal menunjukan semakin tinggi ekonomi yang dimiliki oleh PUS, maka semakin banyak jumlah anak ideal yang diinginkan

Triple C (Centralize and Comprehensive Concept) Sebagai USAha Strategis Penerapan E-money Indonesia

Using cash money as a transaction media has many weaknesses, there are, the transaction will no longer efisien and easy, the costs to make e-money is really expensive, and so many fake cash money that are distributed. To prevent that weaknesses, since 2010 Bank Indonesia has create Less Cash Society program to promote the use of non-cash money to do the transaction, like e-money. Bank Indonesia give franchise to the Bank in Indonesia to produce e-money. However, because of many kinds of e-money is produced by many Banks, the society confuse in using and understanding it. That\u27s why to solve this solution, the writer create the Triple C (Centralize and Comprehensive Concept) as a strategic effort to apply e-money Indonesia. We use the method of literarute study, interview, and observation. The result of Triple C are e-money system that is centralized in Bank Indonesia and e-money smart societies, as the result e-money Indonesia can be implemented as fast and comprehensive

Can Handheld Thermal Imaging Technology Improve Detection of Poachers in African Bushveldt?

Illegal hunting (poaching) is a global threat to wildlife. Anti-poaching initiatives are making increasing use of technology, such as infrared thermography (IRT), to support traditional foot and vehicle patrols. To date, the effectiveness of IRT for poacher location has not been tested under field conditions, where thermal signatures are often complex. Here, we test the hypothesis that IRT will increase the distance over which a poacher hiding in African scrub bushveldt can be detected relative to a conventional flashlight. We also test whether any increase in effectiveness is related to the cost and complexity of the equipment by comparing comparatively expensive (22000 USD) and relatively inexpensive (2000 USD) IRT devices. To test these hypotheses we employ a controlled, fully randomised, double-blind procedure to find a poacher in nocturnal field conditions in African bushveldt. Each of our 27 volunteer observers walked three times along a pathway using one detection technology on each pass in randomised order. They searched a prescribed search area of bushveldt within which the target was hiding. Hiding locations were pre-determined, randomised, and changed with each pass. Distances of first detection and positive detection were noted. All technologies could be used to detect the target. Average first detection distance for flashlight was 37.3m, improving by 19.8m to 57.1m using LIRT and by a further 11.2m to 68.3m using HIRT. Although detection distances were significantly greater for both IRTs compared to flashlight, there was no significant difference between LIRT and HIRT. False detection rates were low and there was no significant association between technology and accuracy of detection. Although IRT technology should ideally be tested in the specific environment intended before significant investment is made, we conclude that IRT technology is promising for anti-poaching patrols and that for this purpose low cost IRT units are as effective as units ten times more expensive

The neural correlates of subjectively perceived and passively matched loudness perception in auditory phantom perception

International audienceIntroduction: A fundamental question in phantom perception is determining whether the brain creates a network that represents the sound intensity of the auditory phantom as measured by tinnitus matching (in dB), or whether the phantom perception is actually only a representation of the subjectively perceived loudness. Methods: In tinnitus patients, tinnitus loudness was tested in two ways, by a numeric rating scale for subjectively perceived loudness and a more objective tinnitus-matching test, albeit it is still a subjective measure. Results: Passively matched tinnitus does not correlate with subjective numeric rating scale, and has no electrophysiological correlates. Subjective loudness, in a whole-brain analysis, is correlated with activity in the left anterior insula (alpha), the rostral/dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (beta), and the left parahip-pocampus (gamma). A ROI analysis finds correlations with the auditory cortex (high beta and gamma) as well. The theta band links gamma band activity in the auditory cortex and parahippocampus via theta–gamma nesting. Conclusions: Apparently the brain generates a network that represents subjectively perceived tinnitus loudness only, which is context dependent. The subjective loudness network consists of the anterior cingulate/insula, the parahippocam-pus, and the auditory cortex. The gamma band activity in the parahippocampus and the auditory cortex is functionally linked via theta–gamma nested lagged phase synchronization

Who has a stake in ash dieback? A conceptual framework for the identification and categorisation of tree health stakeholders

Stakeholder engagement is increasingly recognised as an essential component of environmental management. But what does it mean to have a ‘stake’ in tree health? In this chapter we use case-study analysis to explore the stakeholder concept in relation to tree health. We develop a framework to underpin better understanding of the stakeholder landscape in tree health and through which to categorise individuals and groups within it. This chapter highlights how the framework can facilitate more effective engagement and communication that is sensitive to the particular needs of different stakeholder groups, with a specific focus on the case of ash dieback (Hymenoscyphus fraxineus) in Great Britain. We use it both to improve understanding of how the outbreak developed over time, and to identify the roles of a diverse range of stakeholders as they became involved at different points in the outbreak. Critical reflection enables lessons to be learned for future stakeholder engagement, such as recognition of how stakeholder engagement changes over the course of an outbreak, identification of potential key stakeholder groups that may be overlooked or difficult to access, and which stakeholders are likely to be most influential in driving or facilitating behaviour change
