Negative Strengthening

In recent years, experimental research has demontrated great variability in the ratesof scalar inferences across different triggering expressions (Doran et al. 2009, 2012, van Tielet al. 2016). These studies have been taken as evidence against the so-called uniformity assumption,which posits that scalar implicature is triggered by a single mechanism and that thebehaviour of one scale should generalize to the whole family of scales. In the following, wepresent an experimental study that tests negative strengthening for a variety of strong scalarterms, following up on van Tiel et al. (2016). For example, we tested whether the statementJohn is not brilliant is strengthened to mean that John is not intelligent (see especially Horn1989). We show that endorsement rates of the scalar implicature (e.g., John is intelligent butnot brilliant) are anti-correlated with endorsements of negative strengthening. Further, wedemonstrate that a modified version of the uniformity hypothesis taking into account negativestrengthening is consistent with van Tiel et al.’s data. Therefore, variation across scales may bemore systematic than suggested by the van Tiel et al. study.Keywords: Scalar diversity, scalar implicature, manner implicature, negative strengthening,inferencing task.

Purpose. Еxperimental substantiation of the effectiveness of biocompatible biodegradable hydrogels based on hyaluronic acid and chitosan succinate as a carrier of ranibizumab in antiglaucoma operations. Material and methods. Hydrogel drainage (HD) was obtained immediately before surgery. A solution of ranibizumab (0.23 ml) was mixed with a solution of hyaluronic acid dialdehyde (0.5 ml), then a solution of chitosan succinate (0.5 ml) was added. Experimental studies were performed in 12 (12 eyes) healthy rabbits. The first group consisted of 6 eyes – 0.187 ml of ranibizumab per 1 ml of gel. In the control group, HD was used intraoperatively without the addition of ranibizumab (6 eyes). Morphological studies were performed on 7th, 21st, and 42nd days. Results. In experimental studies in vitro and in vivo, it was proved that ranibizumab, administered as a part of 0.1 ml of hydrogel drainage in the antiglaucoma surgery area is released within 3 weeks and suppresses vascularization, scarring of the operating area, and preserves the intrascleral cavity. The optimal concentration of ranibizumab was selected-0.02 ml in 0.1 ml of gel. Conclusion. The safety and effectiveness of the use of hydrogel drainage with ranibizumab based on hyaluronic acid dialdehyde and chitosan succinate in anti-glaucoma operations has been proven. Key words: experimental research, hydrogel drainage, ranibizumab, glaucoma surgery.

This study aims to (1) examine the effect of repeated tax amnesty knowledge on taxpayer compliance, (2) examine the effect of tax sanctions on taxpayer compliance based on threats to taxpayer compliance decisions, and (3) examine differences in taxpayer compliance based on taxpayer knowledge, on the re-implementation of tax amnesty and the effect of tax sanctions on taxpayer compliance decisions. This study used a 2 x 2 factorial experimental research design between subjects by using 119 participants from accounting students from the Faculty Economic and Busines Warmadewa University. The results showed that both the knowledge of taxpayers on the re-implementation of tax amnesty and the effect of tax sanctions on taxpayer compliance decisions can affect taxpayer compliance. Besides that too, there is an interaction between taxpayer knowledge on the re-implementation of tax amnesty and the effect of tax sanctions on taxpayer compliance decisions where if the taxpayer is in a condition not aware of the repeated application of the tax amnesty, taxpayers who also receive high tax sanctions will show the highest degree of compliance, compared to subjects in other situations. Hypothesis testing using a different test t test with the help of the SPSS 26.0 program. The expected research output is that the results of this research will be published in the proceedings of the Warmadewa of University Research Institute. Keywords: Recurring tax forgiveness, tax sanctions, tax compliance.

Negative Strengthening

In this work, we explore the relationship between three different inferencestriggered by gradable adjectives. In particular, we look at scalar implicature andtwo competing inferences occuring under negation - scale reversal (indirect scalarimplicature) and a type of manner implicature called negative strengthening. In aseries of experiments, we test a variety of adjectival scales and explore correlationsbetween different inferences. Our results show that some scales are more likelyto generate scalar implicature while others lean more towards generating negativestrengthening. The extent to which scalar implicature and scale reversal correlate forthe same scales, in turn, is lower than expected. We discuss our findings with respectto the mechanisms underlying the three types of inferences and factors accountingfor differences across scales, with a focus on semantic distance, boundedness, thetype of standard of comparison and adjectival extremeness.

Material Characteristics

The research on the use of experimental methods in learning characteristics of material and its usefulness toward students’ achievements and learning responses of Level 4 primary school students of MIN Tungkob Aceh Besar aims to determine students’ learning outcomes and responses toward the use of the method. This study uses experimental research. The data collection techniques were using test and distributing questionnaire to the students. The samples in this experimental study were students of class IV3 totaling 34 people as the experimental class and the class IV4 totaling 31 people as the control class. The data, which is the students’ learning outcomes collected from pretest and posttest, were analyzed using t-test formula. The data from the students’ questionnaire responses were analyzed using percentage formula.The result was that the students’ learning outcomes from the experimental class and the control class showed significant differences. Students’ responses toward the use of experimental methods in learning material characteristics and its usefulness were also very positive, where the students are very excited and interested in learning to use the experimental method in the study of material characteristics and its usefulness.

By the experimental research to the effect sucrose-natural gypsum as composite retarder on the performance of cement and concrete. This paper analyzes and summarizes the fact that the influence of this kind of composite retarder is more obvious than the slow setting effect of a single sugar or plaster. And the retardation of cement and concrete the mixing time is basically the amount of sugar a positive correlation. And on the other hand, it will not influence other physical properties.

The main objective of this chapter is to present the empirical results of an experimental study carried out with 9th grade students for teaching electrical circuits. The experimental research took place during April and May 2013. In the study, the authors compared two instructional approaches (4C/ID versus conventional). Thus, the results obtained by two groups (experimental and control) on the variables ‘performance', ‘perceived mental effort', and ‘instructional efficiency' were compared. The results revealed that, globally, the experimental group obtained better performances, with less perceived mental effort (i.e., better instructional efficiency). These results were discussed in 4C/ID-model theoretical framework.

Fascine objects can be applied in the process of emergency rescues in the Middle and Lower reaches of the Yellow River. Because fascine objects can improve the efficiency of rushing to deal with an emergency, adapt to changes in river bed conditions better, resist the erosion of water slide on riverbank and buttress and prevent the collapse of the embankment, they are applicable to rescuing grave dangerous situations such as river closure, advancing construction dams in waters, closing up levee breaches and so on. Based on the experimental study, the authors analyze the mechanical calculation results of fascine object’s underwater falling, and draw the relevant mechanical properties of fascine object’s underwater falling.
