Dampak Iklan Obat Terhadap Perilaku Konsumsi Obat (Studi Kasus Di Kelurahan Bendungan Kecamatan Gajah Mungkur Rt 005 / Rw 002)

ABSTRACBackground Behavioral treatment itself is mostly done by people that can lead to medication errors. Drug advertising has contributed to the behavioral treatment alone. If this are not being balanced with the correct drug information, then people will be plunged toward irrational drug use.Objective To describe drug consumption behavior among the housewives and to analyze the impact of drug ads towards the housewives.Methods This study was an observational study with cross sectional design. Using the simple random sampling, research sites in Kelurahan Bendungan Kecamatan Gajah Mungkur RT 005 / RW 002 Semarang and gained a total of 40 people as a subject. Data were collected by using questionnaire that was filled by the subject themself. Descriptive data analysis performed by chi square and fisher exact test.Results Housewives that were influenced by drug ads have no irrational drug consumption behavior and 23 people have rational drug consumption behavior. The result of multivariate analysis that were using logistic regression analysis showed that there was no significant impact of drug ads towards drug consumption behavior among the housewives at the research location after considering occupational state as confounding variable and the significant p value was 0,998.Conclusion There is no significant impact of drug ads towards drug consumption behavior among the housewives.

Anomaly Detection in Small-Scale Industrial and Household Appliances

Anomaly detection is concerned with identifying rare events/ observations that differ substantially from the majority of the data. It is considered an important task in the energy sector to enable the identification of non-standard device conditions. The use of anomaly detection techniques in small-scale residential and industrial settings can provide useful insights about device health, maintenance requirements, and downtime, which in turn can lead to lower operating costs. There are numerous approaches for detecting anomalies in a range of application scenarios such as prescriptive appliance maintenance. This work reports on anomaly detection using a data set of fridge power consumption that operates on a near zero energy building scenario. We implement a variety of machine and deep learning algorithms and evaluate performances using multiple metrics. In the light of the present state of the art, the contribution of this work is the development of a inference pipeline that incorporates numerous methodologies and algorithms capable of producing high accuracy results for detecting appliance failures

PERBURUAN KASUARI (Casuarius spp.) SECARA TRADISIONAL OLEH MASYARAKAT SUKU NDUGA DI DISTRIK SAWAERMA KABUPATEN ASMAT (The traditional hunting of Kasuari (Casuarius sp.) by Nduga tribe in Sawaerma District, Asmat Regency)

ABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan mengkaji kegiatan perburuan kasuari secara tradisonal oleh masyarakat suku Nduga di Distrik Sawaerma, Kabupaten Asmat. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode deskriptif dengan teknik studi kasus. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perburuan kasuari oleh masyarakat suku Nduga di Distrik Sawaerma bertujuan untuk memenuhi kebutuhan protein hewani dan pendapatan ekonomi keluarga. Aktivitas berburu kasuari oleh masyarakat suku Nduga masih dilakukan secara tradisional dengan menggunakan alat-alat tradisional seperti parang, kapak dan busur, anak panah. Selain itu cara penangkapan kasuari dilakukan dengan jerat leher dan jerat kaki maupun bantuan anjing berburu. Kegiatan berburu kasuari dilakukan secara secara perorangan maupun kelompok sesuai dengan hak adat (dusun). Kegiatan berburu lebih banyak dilakukan pada pagi dan malam hari, terutama saat musim hujan. Jenis kasuari yang terdapat pada areal hutan di sekitar Distrik Sawaerma adalah Kasuari Gelambir Ganda (Casuarius-casuarius), Kasuari Gelambir Tunggal (Casuarius unppendiculatus), dan Kasuari Kerdil (Casuarius bennetti). Rata-rata jumlah hasil buruan kasuari yang mengunakan jerat kaki atau leher sebanyak 2-3 ekor/hari, sedangkan menggunakan anjing berburu 1-2 ekor/hari. ABSTRACTThe research was aimed to discribe how the Nduga tribe in Sawaerma district, Asmat Regency is hunting kasuari traditionally. Descriptive method with case study was employed in this research. The resultshave shown that the main purposes of hunting kasusari by Nduga tribe were to fulfill their own need of protein as well as family income. The Nduga tribe have hunted kasuari traditionally by using traditional tools including cleavers, axe, and arrow. In addition, this tribe also hunts kasuari using neck and feet trapsas well as hunting dogs.The result also showed that Nduga tribe hunted kasuari alone or in group, and they did it based on their land customary. The most hunting time were in the morning and evening especially during rainy seasons. Single wattle (Casuarius unppendiculatus),double wattle (Casuarius-casuarius),and dwarf (Casuarius bennetti) cassowaries were foundin the area. Average number of kasuari hunted using neck and feet trap was 2 – 3 individu per day, while using hunting dogs was 1 – 2 individu per day.ABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan mengkaji kegiatan perburuan kasuari secara tradisonal oleh masyarakat suku Nduga di Distrik Sawaerma, Kabupaten Asmat.

Can information affect sensory perceptions? Evidence from a survey on Italian organic food consumers

This paper aims to investigate the influence of information on consumers’ preferences and sensory perceptions of organic food using a sample of 301 Italian organic food consumers. Consumers stated their preferences for “core organic” attributes, labels and information on food products and performed blind and informed tests on strawberry yoghurts and cookies. Data were analysed using descriptive analysis, Mann-Whitney U tests and Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results revealed that consumers appreciate “core organic” attributes, like artisanal production and variability of sensory attributes. Comparing blind and informed tests, results showed that information affects the overall liking of products and consumers’ perception of product-specific sensory attributes. However, the influence of information on sensory perceptions depends on the product category, sensory attributes and the type of information provided

Foreign presence, technical efficiency and firm survival in Greece: a simultaneous equation model with latent variables approach

The aim of the paper is to explain the role that technical efficiency and foreign spillover effects have on firm survival. Panel data from Greek manufacturing industry (3142 firms) in 1997-2003 are used. Technical efficiency is estimated through a CES translog production function. A hazard function is then used (corresponding to the Exponential and Weibull distributions as well as the Cox model) to estimate survival probabilities. While foreign spillovers exercise a positive impact on hazard, foreign firms do not have any distinctive survival advantage compared to their domestic rivals. On the contrary, technical efficiency affects hazard in a negative way, improving survival expectations

Growth Response of Gyrinops verstegii Cuttings on Various Concentration Level of IBA (Indole Butyric Acid) Hormone RESPON PERTUMBUHAN STEK Gyrinops verstegii TERHADAP PEMBERIAN BERBAGAI TINGKAT KONSENTRASI HORMON IBA (Indole Butyric Acid)

Until now, the supply of the seed sources still rely on seeds or germs. Meanwhie, the certain wood species, the production of seeds are insufficient and the handling is quite difficult. Consequently, when seedling, their germination capacities and growth percentages are very low. Providing seed source through shoot cuttings which if it is planted in advantegous condition for regeneration, it will grow and develop into fast growing species as well as good quality species. Supplying of plant growth regulator is expectedly able to affect the plant growth when given according to the plant needs. This research aimed to determine the concetration level of growth reglator IBA (Indole Butyric Acid) for the growth of shoot cuttings of agarwood Gyrinops verstegii. The method used in this research is experiment with completely-randomized design (CRD). Results showed that the concentration level of IBA affected the growth of callus, roots and shoots. IBA treatment at the concentration of 300 ppm showed the best response to the cutting life, growed earlier, the number and the length of shoot are greater. However, in the root zone, the treatment without IBA hormone provided better response which is showed by the number and the length of root.Key words: Gyrinops verstegii, Indole Butyric Acid, growth respons
