Competitive world of construction to create quality jobs in accordance with the wishes of the people are increasingly high, not only large contractors are trying as much as possible, medium and even small contractors will strive to improve the quality of work in accordance with the wishes of the people. This study aims to determine how relevant competence factors include knowledge, skills, and attitudes gained from the lectures of Civil Engineering University Almuslim with the needs in the world of work as well as knowing the difference of perception based on the role of the respondents (contractors and consultants) and work experience of respondents (under 4 year, 4 to 8 years, over 8 years). This research was conducted by distributing a questionnaire addressed to alumni of the University of Civil Engineering Program Almuslim that work to contractors and consultants who are directly involved in a construction project. Furthermore, all kuesoiner which were collected and analyzed statistically using the analysis Independent Sample T-test, and one way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) using SPSS. From the analysis we found that the factor most relevant competences between the educational curriculum of Civil Engineering University Almuslim with the needs of the workforce total is "Reinforcement and Expenses Detail Bending, Axial, Slide, and Torque" on knowledge. For the skill aspect, the greatest subvariable is "Being able to become independent learners follow the development of science in civil engineering". For the aspects of attitude, the highest subvariable is "Experience". In addition, from the results of the analysis showed that there was no difference of perception based on the role and experience of the respondents.Keywords: Relevance, Capabilities, Competencies.

The smallholder-private forests initially developed through various catalysts, particularly the government's greening program. The various functions of smallholder-private forests in economic, social, and environmental life has encouraged the forests as an integral part of community life. This condition is termed as a status of adjusted to each other (couple state) between the forests and community life. The couple state needs to be studied to help in improving community lives through the development of smallholder-private forests. A systems approach is required in learning the couple state. The main topic of research was the system’s coupling between smallholder-private forest systems and livelihood systems. The degree of the system’s coupling was measured using the value of the coupling coefficient (R). This study aimed to determine the degrees of coupling in three main farmer livelihoods. The study began by developing the causal loop diagram (CLD) of the coupling of the two systems. Samples of 72 head of the family that work as full farmers, part-time farmers, and non-farmers were taken purposively in Semoyo Village, Gunungkidul Regency. Data of farmers conditions were obtained through interviews by using questionnaires, and the conditions of smallholder-private forests were obtained through tree measurements. The results found that there was a dynamic coupling of the community forest system with community life in the three main livelihoods studied. The highest order of coupling degrees was full-time farmers, part-time farmers, and non-farmers, respectively. The difference in degrees of coupling in the three main livelihoods can be used as a basis for stakeholder intervention in formulating regulations, policies, and coaching to improve the quality of life of the community.

A prospective inquiry of a largely working-class sample of women with children considers the effect of employment on risk of developing clinical depression. The hypothesis was that there would be a direct protective effect arising from employment once quality of other support was taken into account. In fact full-time working mothers were at high risk. This appeared to be explained by either prior work strain or a severe event involving ‘deviant’ behaviour on the part of husband/boyfriend or child. Neither factor was relevant for part-time workers. The severe events appeared to be particularly depressogenic for full-time workers because they represented either failure in the motherhood role or a sense of entrapment in an unrewarding work/domestic situation. However, those in part-time work had a low rate of onset compared with non-workers, and the difference appears to be related to non-working women feeling less secure about their marriages.

Abstract The author of the two-part article about evaluating reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD) responds to criticisms that a percentage impairment score may not adequately reflect the disability of an individual with RSD. The author highlights the importance of recognizing the difference between impairment and disability in the AMA Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment (AMA Guides): impairment is the loss, loss of use, or derangement of any body part, system, or function; disability is a decrease in or the loss or absence of the capacity to meet personal, social, or occupational demands or to meet statutory or regulatory requirements because of an impairment. The disparity between impairment and disability can be encountered in diverse clinical scenarios. For example, a person's ability to resume occupational activities following a major cardiac event depends on medical, social, and psychological factors, but nonmedical factors appear to present the greatest impediment and many persons do not resume work despite significant improvements in functional capacity. A key requirement according to the AMA Guides is objective documentation, and the author agrees that when physicians consider the disability evaluation of people, more issues than those relating to the percentage loss of function should be considered. More study of the relationships among impairment, disability, and quality of life in patients with RSD are required.
