The City

Pedestrian is part of urban elements that have a significant role in forming a city. In the pedestrian, social interactions will be created which further strengthen relations between elements in the city. Cities in Europe are the best examples of city pedestrian planning. There walking is more comfortable and enjoyable, with the city being created by the streetscape and the humanist city order. Whereas in cities in developing countries like Jakarta, the city planning has not accommodated pedestrians at all.               The design of the city of Jakarta which is not humanist seems to urge pedestrians and force everyone to ride a car. The pedestrian paths provided are always side by side with the road and the volume is insufficient for those who pass it.               It can be concluded that the existing pedestrian conditions are unsafe and very uncomfortable. Examples of such cases can be seen along Jalan Sudirman and M.H. Thamrin which has always been the icon of the Jakarta office area. Where along these linear and continuous paths, pedestrians are forced to walk unprotected and face the pollution produced by vehicles. The lack of good pedestrian planning in this area has resulted in pedestrians preferring to use vehicles. Finally, each person is increasingly individualistic because there is no social interaction and the realization of a city that is not humanist too.

The article examines the architectural and spatial environment of cities in Belgium, numerous examples of architectural solutions of buildings, both architectural monuments and future projects that have not yet been embodied. From the point of view of considering the foreshortenings of the city of Belgium proposed in the article, they can be considered as: a historically developed system of social and functional settlement of citizens, modern and future environment, an object of aesthetic perception. Architecture bears a projection of the integrity of the human personality and social interaction between people, as well as the preservation of an integral architectural environment as a whole. The modern architecture of Belgium – NewArt Style – is a set of basic forms and features characteristic of buildings of a certain time and a certain people, manifested in the features of a functional, constructive and artistic order. Each era has created its own style. The historically developed architectural and spatial environment of the cities of Belgium is a valuable object of research, both from a historical point of view and from an architectural point of view. It can be said that every European city has a rich history, reflecting in its characteristic compositional and landscape features, which makes it possible to identify the main problems of preserving the historical part of the city, which occupies most of the territory in the overall city planning and has a significant impact on its modern spatial composition and architecture in the future. This allows modern European architects to identify strategies for the development of a small historical city without violating its architectural and spatial integrity and artistic qualities, as well as to preserve a harmonious and comfortable urban environment.

The objective of this study is to analyze the meaning contained in communication symbols in the version of "New Jakarta" campaign advertisement of Joko Widodo - Tjahaja Basuki Purnama in television, how  the messages conveyed through the advertisement sets the image of Joko Widodo - Tjahaja Basuki Purnama at Jakarta election 2012, and the perception of some viewers from the author point of view. This type of study is a qualitative  descriptive using communication semiology analysis approach. As a descriptive study, it  only describes the situation or discourse, does not look for a relationship, tests hypotheses or makes predictions. This study uses qualitative data so the data are substantive categories which are then interpreted by scientific references. In the data analysis, the author uses Roland Barthes' semiotic system with the concept of denotation and connotation as the first level, mythologies (myth) as the second level, as well as metonymy and metaphor as the concept of intertextual. The result of study show that the image of Joko Widodo - Tjahaja Basuki Purnama is found in the couple’s self-claim that they are agents of change who can bring people's expectations about the city of Jakarta into real, namely for a better condition of the road in the city, regular city planning, cleanness and flood prevention.

The numbers of people who are walking and bicycling continues to increase all over the world and pedestrian accidents are becoming a serious problem in the developed and developing countries. However, the problem is more severe in the developing countries, such as Jordan where pedestrians represented 32.5% of all traffic accident fatalities and 23.8% of all traffic accident injuries during the year 2010. This study aims at analyzing pedestrian accidents in Irbid city, as an example for urban areas in Jordan, based on a total of 1090 pedestrian accidents that have occurred in the City during the three years period (1999 - 2001). The analysis was based on pedestrian characteristics, driver characteristics, accident time, accident location, weather, road surface condition, illumination condition, vehicle characteristics, speed limit, accident severity, pedestrian faults, and driver faults. Geographic Information System (GIS) tool was used to locate all pedestrian accidents over the study area. The results of the study showed that the majority of pedestrian accidents have occurred at non-intersection locations, during clear and sunny weather, on dry surface, during daylight, and at low speed limits. Also, more pedestrian accidents have occurred during the afternoons, on Thursdays, and during July. The majority of involved drivers in pedestrian accidents were males, with private license type, driving private vehicles and committed the fault of “not giving priority to pedestrians”. The majority of pedestrian victims were males, children less than 15 years old, and hit by vehicles while crossing the road.

AbstractReproductive externalities are important for fertility behavior in Kenya. We identify from anthropology structural forms of social interaction operating across individuals belonging to different ethnic and religious groups on the number of children ever born. We use the 1998 Demographic and Health Survey, combined with primary meteorological data on Kenya, and GMM methods, to show that social interaction effects by ethnicity are important over and above an individual's characteristics such as their religion to explain variations in fertility. Our findings have implications for policy debates in Kenya and in other developing countries about ethnic, religious, and other differences in fertility behavior.

Development And Validation

Studies have shown that during social interaction a shared system underlies inferring one’s own mental state, and the mental states of others – processes often referred to as mentalization. However, no validated assessment has been developed to measure second order mentalization (one’s beliefs about how transparent one’s thoughts are to others), or whether this capacity plays a significant role in social interaction. The current work presents a interactive mentalization theory, which divides these directional and second order aspects of mentalization, and investigates whether these constructs are measurable, stable, and meaningful in social interactions. We developed a 20-item, self-report interactive mentalization questionnaire (IMQ) in order to assess the different sub-components of mentalization: self-self, self-other, and other-self mentalization (Study 1). We then tested this scale on a large, online sample, and report convergent and discriminant validity in the form of correlations with other measures (Study 2), as well as correlations with social deception behaviors in real interaction with Mturk studies (Study 3 and Study 4). These results validate the IMQ, and support the idea that these three factors can predict mentalization in social interaction.

Metropolitan road traffic mechanisms in developing countries are a critical problem due to fast motorization. The optimization of traffic control is one method to decrease this problem. In this study, a genetic algorithm was implemented to minimize delay at an intersection by finding red and green cycle intervals at an intersection. The objective function minimizes the delay at an intersection and increases progressive flows of traffic on roads. The study was done on real data collected from three t- intersections in the city of Hardwar, India. Traffic data for traffic flows, queue sizes, and traffic speed are collected using video detection systems in the study area. The digital images from the camera were analyzed in real time. The results show that the traffic control performance is improved up to 85% over existing algorithms proposed by the same author.
