Design that evoked emotions are one of the main concerning issues in developing mobile applications for online learning in general and for augmented reality (AR) based mobile learning applications in specific. Emotional design could attract users by creating different feelings while using AR-based mobile learning applications. Suitable emotions related to design could motivate students towards fascinating learning experiences. The aim of this research is to evaluate the emotional responses of the students based on different designs in AR-based mobile learning applications using Kansei engineering technique. In this research, about thirty-two students from secondary school were involved in an experiment to identify the Kansei (emotion) words for AR-based mobile applications. The data gathered were analysed using factor analysis (FA), principal component analysis (PCA), and partial least square (PLS) analysis. The results revealed four important pillars of emotions or known as Kansei semantic space such as challenging-thinking, motivated, humorous, preoccupied and also touched as an additional pillar. Based on the PLS analysis of design elements of AR-based mobile learning applications suggested specific design and emotions based on the pillars. In conclusion, this research is motivated to give affective formulae that would guide the design of AR-based mobile learning materials in the future.

The function and usability of a mobile application are the main reasons for making the application. In addition, the User Interface (UI) design factor is also an important consideration in making a mobile application. Good UI design is the main attraction for the application to use. There are many ways to make a good UI design. Kansei Engineering (KE) is one of the methods that can be used in the UI design process. Since the creation of the Mobile Disdukcapil application, there has never been a study on the application's design interface. This research aims to make recommendations on design elements desired by users. The KE method can detect the user's feelings towards an interface. So that the KE method will produce a UI design for the Disdukcapil mobile application that is liked by the user. The methodology used refers to the Kansei Engineering Type I methodology. This research uses Kansei Words to represent the emotional factors of the user when viewing a product specimen. Kansei Word used as many as 10 words related to the UI display on the mobile application. The mobile application specimens used were 5 specimens, which were taken from various similar applications. This study involved 80 participants to fill out the questionnaire. The results of the questionnaire were processed using multivariate statistical analysis, namely Cronbach's Alpha, Coefficient Correlation Analysis (CCA), Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Factor Analysis (FA), and Partial Least Square (PLS). The results of this study are in the form of recommendations for UI design elements based on the most dominant emotional factors. Based on the results of data processing, the dominant emotional factors are "Colorful" and "Simple".

<span>In recent times, various studies have shown that Augmented Reality (AR) will be the next wave of online learning. This is because of the advent of powerful smartphones that has changed user experiences, thereby able to increase the capability of AR. There has been much concentration in previous studies on cognition towards the use of AR in education, in which little consideration has been given to emotions which is also an important aspect in learning. Based on this, the present research aims to identify salient connections between emotions and design elements of AR-based mobile learning material through the application of the Kansei Engineering (KE) approach. In order to achieve this study objective, the use of a human heart in relation to the mobile AR application of the KE approach was adopted in this research as a case study, in which seven specimens of the mobile AR application were evaluated including 55 emotions of Kansei Words (KW). Additionally, the kansei evaluation experiment of this study was carried out by 28 students from one of the public universities, after which the data were analysed using Factor and Principal Component Analysis. The results of this study show the important pillars of emotions or Kansei semantic space of emotions for AR-based mobile learning materials. Based on Factor Analysis, it revealed four main pillars; <em>professional-motivated</em>, <em>confused</em>, <em>wandering-thrilled</em>, <em>challenging</em> and one additional pillar; <em>trustable</em>. Besides that, this research also described design elements of AR-based mobile learning material that might evoke specific emotions based on the identified pillars. Finally, the findings of this research are hoped to be applicable as a guide in design during preparation of AR-based mobile learning materials with affective elements in the future.</span>

E-performance web-based software is used to manage and assess the performance of employees in local government agencies. In the process, some of the local governments racing to create and develop E-performance applications. But there are still many E-performance applications that fail because they don't get a good response from their users in this case the State Civil Apparatus. Then it should be carried out supporting studies in the implementation process of making E-performance applications. One method to determine what is needed by the application of information systems in accordance with what is desired by users emotionally is the Kansei Engineering method. Because through Kansei Engineering can be investigated from various points of view that encourage users to use the information system application. In this research, an application program was created using the Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) algorithm to select and determine several words from a few sentences in an article that will be used as a kansei word. After the screening and selection finally obtained as many as 20 words used as kansei words. A total of 30 participants were involved in this study, namely the State Civil Apparatus in the Government of Bandung City. Furthermore, the results of the questionnaire were processed using multivariate statistical analysis which includes Correlation Coefficient Analysis (CCA), Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Factor Analysis (FA) and Partial Least Square (PLS). After passing through multivariate statistical analysis, the main factor of emotion concept in the design of the E-performance interface is obtained, the optimal factor. But there are other factors supporting the concept of emotion as an alternative design in designing the E-performance interface, the Smart factor. So as to obtain recommendations for designing the E-performance interface produced through the Kansei Engineering method approach in the form of a proposed matrix in which there are several design elements based on the "Optimal" emotional concept

This study discussed employee turnover as one of the crucial problems faced by every organization. This study sought to analyze the determinants of turnover intention, such as job insecurity, organizational commitment, and job satisfaction. The objects of this study were newcomer lecturers of private Islamic universities in East Java Province, Indonesia. To analyze the relationship among independent variables and dependent variable; this study employed a correlation path model. To build the structural formulation of the correlation path model, this study used the variance-based Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) as a Partial Least Square (PLS) analysis. The study found that job insecurity influenced job satisfaction and organizational commitment. Moreover, job satisfaction and organizational commitment had positive impacts on the turnover intention. In contrast, job insecurity did not have a direct significant impact on the turnover intention, but it had indirect effect that influences job satisfaction and organizational commitment.

AbstractWith an unsupervised GC–MS metabolomics approach, polar metabolite changes of the microalgae Coccomyxa melkonianii SCCA 048 grown under standard conditions for seven weeks were studied. C. melkonianii was sampled at the Rio Irvi River, in the mining site of Montevecchio-Ingurtosu (Sardinia, Italy), which is severely contaminated by heavy metals and shows high concentrations of sulfates. The partial-least-square (PLS) analysis of the GC–MS data indicated that growth of C. melkonianii was characterized by an increase of the levels of threonic acid, myo-inositol, malic acid, and fumaric acid. Furthermore, at the sixth week of exponential phase the lipid fingerprint of C. melkonianii was studied by LC-QTOF-MS. C. melkonianii lipid extract characterized through an iterative MS/MS analysis showed the following percent levels: 61.34 ± 0.60% for triacylglycerols (TAG); 11.55 ± 0.09% for diacylglyceryltrimethyl homoserines (DGTS), 11.34 ± 0.10% for sulfoquinovosyldiacylglycerols (SQDG) and, 5.29 ± 0.04% for lysodiacylglyceryltrimethyl homoserines (LDGTS). Noteworthy, we were able to annotate different fatty acid ester of hydroxyl fatty acid, such as FAHFA (18:1_20:3), FAHFA (18:2_20:4), FAHFA (18:0_20:2), and FAHFA (18:1_18:0), with relevant biological activity. These approaches can be useful to study the biochemistry of this extremophile algae in the view of its potential exploitation in the phycoremediation of polluted mining areas.
