Abstract The aim of developing urban forests for steep areas is to prevent erosion. Erosion can be caused by stemflow and throughfall. The difference in stemflow and throughfall is thought to be due to differences in the tree architecture model. The study investigates the effects of several tree architectural models on the amount of stemflow and throughfall. It is hoped that data and information of this research can be taken into consideration in selecting tree species for the benefit of soil and water conservation in urban forest areas that have the potential for erosion and sedimentation. The collection and processing of data comprised the rainfall data obtained from Meteorological Climatological and Geophysical Agency, measurement of leaf area index using a hemispherical photograph and Hemiview 2.1 software, measurement of stemflow and throughfall in five tree architectural models (Massart, Aubreville, Koriba, Rauh, and Troll). Afterward, the relationship between the dependent and independent variables is known through multiple linear regression analysis using Minitab 16 software. The result showed that the tree architectural model influences stemflow and throughfall. The tree architectural model with the highest stemflow and throughfall is Rauh, and the lowest belongs to the Massart architectural model. The tree architectural model that can be used for land and water conservation is Massart; the species is Diospyros discolor Willd.

This study addresses the relationship of disability with principal lifetime occupation in the elderly. Daily function, cognitive, and physical health variables were assessed in an Italian population of 524 community-dwelling elders aged seventy and over. Farmers had 1.4 (95% C.I.: 0.6 to 2.2) instrumental daily functions lost higher than white-collar workers. Adjustment for age, education, and financial dissatisfaction with multiple linear regression analysis decreased the difference to a still significant figure of 0.9 (95% C.I.: 0.1 to 1.7). On the contrary, adjustment only for cognitive status resulted in complete disappearance of the association [0.2 functions lost (95% C.I.: −0.5 to 0.9)]. The data indicate that greater disability in the most disadvantaged occupational groups may be due to poorer cognition.

Abstract Declared proficiency tests are limited in their use for testing the performance of the entire system, because analysts are aware that they are being tested. A blind quality control (BQC) is intended to appear as a real case to the analyst to remove any intentional or subconscious bias. A BQC program allows a real-time assessment of the laboratory’s policies and procedures and monitors reliability of casework. In September 2015, the Houston Forensic Science Center (HFSC) began a BQC program in blood alcohol analysis. Between September 2015 and July 2018, HFSC submitted 317 blind cases: 89 negative samples and 228 positive samples at five target concentrations (0.08, 0.15, 0.16, 0.20 and 0.25 g/100 mL; theoretical targets). These blood samples were analyzed by a headspace gas chromatograph interfaced with dual-flame ionization detectors (HS-GC-FID). All negative samples produced `no ethanol detected’ results. The mean (range) of reported blood alcohol concentrations (BACs) for the aforementioned target concentrations was 0.075 (0.073–0.078), 0.144 (0.140–0.148), 0.157 (0.155–0.160), 0.195 (0.192–0.200) and 0.249 (0.242–0.258) g/100 mL, respectively. The average BAC percent differences from the target for the positive blind cases ranged from −0.4 to −6.3%, within our uncertainty of measurement (8.95–9.18%). The rate of alcohol evaporation/degradation was determined negligible. A multiple linear regression analysis was performed to compare the % difference in BAC among five target concentrations, eight analysts, three HS-GC-FID instruments and two pipettes. The variables other than target concentrations showed no significant difference (P > 0.2). While the 0.08 g/100 mL target showed a significantly larger % difference than higher target concentrations (0.15–0.25 g/100 mL), the % differences among the higher targets were not concentration-dependent. Despite difficulties like gaining buy-in from stakeholders and mimicking evidence samples, the implementation of a BQC program has improved processes, shown methods are reliable and added confidence to staff’s testimony in court.

Underpricing is a phenomenon that often occurs from IPO activities on the IDX. Underpricing is the difference in stock prices that occur in the primary .market’ and secondary’ market, where the bid price is lower than the closing price of the first trading day. The purpose of this research is to find out the effect of accounting information and investor demand on underpricing.This research was conducted’.at companies whose IPO on .the’ Stock .Exchange in 2016-2018. Data collection was obtained from the collection of prospectuses and company financial statements. The total sample of 81 companies using a purposive sampling method. The analysis technique used is multiple linear regression analysis. This study proves that profitability and firm size negatively affect underpricing, while financial leverage and investor demand have no effect on underpricing. Keywords: Underpricing; Profitability; Company Size; Investor Demand.

Porosity is one of the most important properties of textile materials that ensures their comfort and usability. The internal pore structure of the cotton fiber assembly is complex and changeable, surface pore is difficult to explain its pore structure. It is intended to develop a method to predict the pore morphology of cotton fiber assembly. Pore image of the multi-layer fiber assembly is collected by a fiber photography instrument, used the Image Pro Plus 6.0 software to analyze, and obtained the white area indicators of image which can be applied to describe void space of fiber assembly. Using multiple linear regression analysis method, the regression equation of the white area index of image and porosity index of cotton fiber assembly is established. The results indicate that the white area index can largely be explained by three pore index namely the porosity ε, mean length of fiber between the adjacent contacts B and fiber tortuosity coefficient. Appropriate regression equations can be formulated for the pore of white area index which can aid in predicting the pore texture. Comparing the data indicators, it is found that mean length of fiber between the adjacent contacts B and the porosity ε, fiber tortuosity coefficient τ, and air permeability q have good linear correlation.

The aim of the study was to find out the effect of teacher teaching on the achievement of male students in the three primary grades of the primary stage, in both language and mathematics. The sample of the study was divided into two experimental and control groups, respectively: male students studying with private school teachers (597), and male students studying at Esnad schools (420) students. The two groups applied standard tests designed by the Saudi Ministry of Education to evaluate the performance of the Saudi teacher. The results of the study showed that there were statistically significant differences between the average achievement for the students of the teachers at the level of significance (α = 0.05). In both subjects: mathematics and my language in the second and third grades, the first row was the difference in mathematics by an average difference of 0.7, The second with an average of 3.6 and 3.8 degrees; for both languages ​​and mathematics, respectively, and the differences for the third grade were multiplied by 12.4 and 5; respectively for the two languages ​​and mathematics; Another test tool was the collection of information on factors affecting students' achievement. By conducting multiple linear regression analysis, the difference in student scores was explained by other factors. The study recommended separating girls from boys to avoid the impact of gender bias reflected negatively on student achievement.
