Republic of Indonesia Law Number 12 of 1995 concerning Corrections assets that correctional coaching is carried out based on several principles, namely: guidance; treatment and service equality; education and counseling; respect for human dignity; and guarantee to keep in touch with families and certain people. Class II-B Correctional Institution of Langsa city is an adult Correctional Institution. The purpose of this study is to analyze the implementation of child inmates coaching in Class II-B Correctional Institution of Langsa city and find out the efforts done to overcome constraints in the implementation of child inmates coaching. The method used in this research was Juridical Empirical research method that examines the implementation of normative legal behavior relating to the implementation of child inmates coaching in Class II-B Correctional Institution of Langsa city. The results showed that the implementation of child inmates coaching does not correspond to childs rights since, in addition to an over capacity of the correctional institution, child inmates do not get personality and self-reliance coaching. In conclusion, the child inmates coaching which is expected to be well implemented is far from the expectations since it does not correspond to childs rights. Therefore, it suggested that the government can immediately build a special Correctional Institution for child inmates with appropriate facilities and infrastructure since children are the next generation of a nationUndang-undang RI Nomor 12 Tahun 1995 tentang Pemasyarakatan dimana menegaskan pembinaan pemasyarakatan dilaksanakan berdasarkan beberapa asas yaitu : Pengayoman ; Persamaan perilaku dan pelayanan ; Pendidikan dan pembimbingan ; Penghormatan harkat dan martabat manusia ; Kehilangan kemerdekaan satu-satu nya penderitaan ; Terjaminnya hak untuk tetap berhubungan dengan keluarga dan orang-orang tertentu . Lembaga Pemasyarakatan kelas II-B Kota Langsa adalah lembaga Pemasyarakatan Dewasa, Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengetahui dan menganalisis bagaimana pelaksanaan pembinaan hak-hak narapidana anak di Lembaga Pemasyarakatan kelas II-B Kota Langsa dan bagaimana upaya yang dilakukan untuk mengatasi kendala dalam pelaksanaan pembinaan narapidana anak. Metode penelitian yang digunakan dalam penulisan ini yaitu�Metode penelitian yang digunakan yaitu Yuridis Empiris yaitu mengkaji mengenai implementasi ketentuan hukum normatif (perundang-undangan) yang berhubungan dengan pembinaan narapidana anak di lembaga pemasyarakatan Kelas II-B kota Langsa. Hasil penelitian pelaksanaan pembinaan narapidana anak tidak memenuhi hak-hak narapidana anak, karena selain keadaan lembaga pemasyarakatan over kapasitas, kenyataan apa yang diharapkan tidak terealisasi dengan baik, karena narapidana anak tidak mendapatkan pembinaan kepribadian dan pembinaam kemandirian. Simpulan secara faktual pembinaan narapidana anak yang diharapkan tidak terlaksana dengan baik, jauh dari harapan pemenuhan hak-hak narapidana anak., disarankan pemerintah segera membangaun Lembaga pemasyarakatan khusus anak dengan sarana dan prasarana yang layak. Mengingat anak adalah generasi yang berpotensian bagi bangsa

The University of Iowa Central Electron Microscopy Research Facility(CEMRF) was established in 1981 to support all faculty, staff and students needing this technology. Initially the CEMRF was operated with one TEM, one SEM, three staff members and supported about 30 projects a year. During the past twelve years, the facility has replaced all instrumentation pre-dating 1981, and now includes 2 TEM's, 2 SEM's, 2 EDS systems, cryo-transfer specimen holders for both TEM and SEM, 2 parafin microtomes, 4 ultamicrotomes including cryoultramicrotomy, a Laser Scanning Confocal microscope, a research grade light microscope, an Ion Mill, film and print processing equipment, a rapid cryo-freezer, freeze substitution apparatus, a freeze-fracture/etching system, vacuum evaporators, sputter coaters, a plasma asher, and is currently evaluating scanning probe microscopes for acquisition. The facility presently consists of 10 staff members and supports over 150 projects annually from 44 departments in 5 Colleges and 10 industrial laboratories. One of the unique strengths of the CEMRF is that both Biomedical and Physical scientists use the facility.

Children who use cochlear implants experience significant difficulty hearing speech in the presence of background noise, such as in the classroom. To address these difficulties, audiologists often recommend frequency-modulated (FM) systems for children with cochlear implants. The purpose of this article is to examine current empirical research in the area of FM systems and cochlear implants. Discussion topics will include selecting the optimal type of FM receiver, benefits of binaural FM-system input, importance of DAI receiver-gain settings, and effects of speech-processor programming on speech recognition. FM systems significantly improve the signal-to-noise ratio at the child's ear through the use of three types of FM receivers: mounted speakers, desktop speakers, or direct-audio input (DAI). This discussion will aid audiologists in making evidence-based recommendations for children using cochlear implants and FM systems.

For the effective use of modern tools, the inherent visuo-motor transformation needs to be mastered. The successful adjustment to and learning of these transformations crucially depends on practice conditions, particularly on the type of visual feedback during practice. Here, a review about empirical research exploring the influence of continuous and terminal visual feedback during practice on the mastery of visuo-motor transformations is provided. Two studies investigating the impact of the type of visual feedback on either direction-dependent visuo-motor gains or the complex visuo-motor transformation of a virtual two-sided lever are presented in more detail. The findings of these studies indicate that the continuous availability of visual feedback supports performance when closed-loop control is possible, but impairs performance when visual input is no longer available. Different approaches to explain these performance differences due to the type of visual feedback during practice are considered. For example, these differences could reflect a process of re-optimization of motor planning in a novel environment or represent effects of the specificity of practice. Furthermore, differences in the allocation of attention during movements with terminal and continuous visual feedback could account for the observed differences.

Abstract. Which data to analyze, and how, are fundamental questions of all empirical research. As there are always numerous flexibilities in data-analytic decisions (a “garden of forking paths”), this poses perennial problems to all empirical research. Specification-curve analysis and multiverse analysis have recently been proposed as solutions to these issues. Building on the structural analogies between primary data analysis and meta-analysis, we transform and adapt these approaches to the meta-analytic level, in tandem with combinatorial meta-analysis. We explain the rationale of this idea, suggest descriptive and inferential statistical procedures, as well as graphical displays, provide code for meta-analytic practitioners to generate and use these, and present a fully worked real example from digit ratio (2D:4D) research, totaling 1,592 meta-analytic specifications. Specification-curve and multiverse meta-analysis holds promise to resolve conflicting meta-analyses, contested evidence, controversial empirical literatures, and polarized research, and to mitigate the associated detrimental effects of these phenomena on research progress.
