Tuna Fishery

Tuna capture fisheries have a very important value and meaning for the socio-economic life of coastal communities, either directly or indirectly. On the other hand, the catch of tuna has decreased from an ecological aspect based on the exploited status, production, and the value of CpUE (Cath per Unit Effort), the length of the fish caught, and the amount. The research objective was to analyze the sustainability status of tuna fisheries from 3 dimensions. This study was a survey of 76 respondents in the Sendang Biru Malang districts. The method used the Multi-Dimensional Scaling (MDS) analysis using the software Rapfish (Rapid Appraisal for Fisheries). The results showed that the sustainability status to be seen from 3 dimensions, ecology, economic, and social, which showed that the level of sustainability of tuna fishery from the economic and social dimensions was enough sustainable. For the ecological dimensions, it shows less sustainability. In general, the level of sustainability of tuna fishery in the Sendang Biru is enough sustainable. There need activities related to environmental conservation to increase ecological sustainability. In addition, it is necessary to hold counseling and training on aquatic ecosystems so that they are utilized in the short term and in the long term.

Insight Into

Context: Pain in sport has been normalized to the point where athletes are expected to ignore pain and remain in the game despite the possible detrimental consequences associated with playing through pain. While rehabilitation specialists may not have an influence on an athlete’s competitive nature or the culture of risk they operate in, understanding the consequences of those factors on an athlete’s physical well-being is definitely in their area of responsibility. Objective: To explore the factors associated with the experiences of subelite athletes who play through pain in gymnastics, rowing, and speed skating. Design: The authors conducted semistructured interviews with subelite athletes, coaches, and rehabilitation specialists. They recruited coach participants through their provincial sport organization. Athletes of the recruited coaches who were recovering from a musculoskeletal injury and training for a major competition were then recruited. They also recruited rehabilitation specialists who were known to treat subelite athletes independently by e-mail. Setting: An observation session was conducted at the athlete’s training facility. Interviews were then conducted either in a room at the university or at a preferred sound-attenuated location suggested by the participant. Participants: The authors studied 5 coaches, 4 subelite athletes, and 3 rehabilitation specialists. Interventions: The authors photographed athletes during a practice shortly before an important competition, and we interviewed all the participants after that competition. Our photographs were used during the interview to stimulate discussion. Results: The participant interviews revealed 3 main themes related to playing through pain. They are: Listening to your body, Decision making, and Who decides. Conclusion: When subelite athletes, striving to be the best in their sport continue to train with the pain of an injury, performance is affected in the short-term and long-term consequences are also possible. Our study provides some insight into the contrasting forces that athletes balance as they decide to continue or to stop.

Indonesia is rated the highest rice consumer and the third-largest producer in the world, consequently, farming is one of the most strategic production systems in the country. Therefore, this study aims to assess the sustainability of rice farming at the provincial level in Indonesia. Furthermore, 32 sustainability indicators, which are categorized into five dimensions, namely economic, ecological, social, technological, and institutional were used. The rapid appraisal approach (Rapsusagri), consisting of multi-dimensional scaling (MDS) analysis was adopted to assess the sustainability of rice farming. Monte Carlo simulation was used to define the validity and sensitivity analysis to assess the dominant attributes which affect sustainability. The result showed that the economic and social dimensions are at a better level, meanwhile the ecological, technological, and institutional still have various weaknesses and needs improvement. Furthermore, irrigated paddy areas, agricultural infrastructure, rice productivity, use of chemical and organic fertilizers, cropping index, land suitability, village accessibility, officers, and agricultural extension institution were pointed out as the leveraging indicators for sustaining the rice farming system. Also, provinces in Java Island were found to have higher sustainability levels than others. However, it is predicted that this condition will last for a short period due to rapid land conversion, therefore Indonesia needs to consider the development of rice production areas outside Java islands.

Development Prospects

The decisive feature of creative management is the creation of conditions for self-realization, which determines the relevance of the study of the transformational vector of creative motivation for the development of creative capabilities of staff. A significant problem of psychological management approaches to creative motivation is the awareness of the need for continuously updated material incentives for staff. A reward received as a deserved prize may cause its unjustified expectation in the future, and its absence begins to be perceived as an unfair incentive system. Monetary motivation is also not an effective tool for stimulating the creative development of staff, because its positive-motivating effect only manifests itself in the first 48 hours. The introduction of a bonus system as a short-term incentive usually indicates the desire of managers to mechanically control the motivation of employees. The use of bonuses is based on the incorrect assumption that an employee does not fully utilize his own potential, and this leads to a motivated inconsistency between the actual and the possible volume of work. Thus, the system of bonus incentives, not taking into account the complex interweaving of market factors, market conditions, prices, products, competition, can destroy the employee's responsibility for achieving the resultant results. Motivated systems that directly rely on quantitative results of work often target workers to achieve short-term success, ignoring long-term development prospects. The effect of displacement of internal motivation with external motivation is manifested: interest in remuneration displaces interest in creative work. Material incentives appear to be incapable of motivating most of them to a long-term desire for self-improvement, development and achievement of creative results. Job satisfaction, diverse activities that require dedication, self-planning goals, education and training, and participation in management are often more important than attractive wages and bonuses in the form of a bonus. The psychological danger to the head is also the use of established non-material methods of stimulating creativity, which often provoke material expectations from the staff. The newest managerial approaches to creative motivation must mutually coordinate the nonlinear combination of different directions of material and immaterial stimulation, despite their certain contradictory nature. Thus, the motivation of creativity focuses on the psychological self-regulation of the individual, integrating the intellectual, motivational, volitional and emotional components of creative activity.

Succession planning and replacement planning are both strategies that are incredibly important to the lifeline of any organization. Succession planning is a deliberate and systematic effort by an organization to ensure leadership continuity in key positions, retain and develop intellectual and knowledge capital for the future, and encourage individual advancement. Replacement planning is the process of identifying short-term and long-term emergency backups to fill critical positions or to take the place of critical people. This paper examines the role of succession and replacement planning in improving organizational performance. It established the importance; types; features and objectives of succession planning in the workplace. The paper juxtaposed replacement and succession planning in the workplace, established the development plan of replacement planning and examines how succession and replacement planning helps to improve on the performance of the organization. The paper identified that succession planning and replacement planning are two different strategies; succession planning is oriented around developing people through training, mentoring, coaching, while replacement planning is focused on meeting the demands of emergencies in the organization. The paper further identified that from the perspective of the workplace succession planning helps the organization to access the risk in key position, minimizes risk through appropriate compensation, recognition and management, and assuring the readiness of successors by identifying and training high potential employees. Replacement planning assumes a stable and unchanging organizational structure, which encourages silo-d thinking about talent since in most cases; replacements come from a specific specialty area. The paper concludes that these strategies are incredibly important to the lifeline of any organization as they both assists to improve organizational performance. The paper recommends that Organizations should make use of replacement planning and succession planning; together they can mitigate the risks of any organization going out of business.

The developmental state model was proposed in the early 1990s as a better means of understanding the mechanisms underlying the rapid growth of the Asian Tiger economies, when compared to classic economic models. The national skills systems of South Korea and Singapore are examined in order to consider how the Asian developmental state approach has worked in practice. It is shown that, whilst the state identifies and firmly guides the direction of economic development, the market plays a fundamental role in the concrete delivery of long-term economic objectives. Within this approach, education and training act as a vehicle to achieve broader economic and social development goals. Examples are used to consider how these systems changed throughout the industrialisation process. We reflect on some of the challenges faced over time, which have put the long-term viability of the developmental state approach in question. Most notable is the gradual erosion of the state’s ability to lead capital and labour in order to achieve long- rather than short-term goals, particularly in the face of globalisation.

In Switzerland, initial vocational education and training graduates may enter a track of the tertiary system called professional education. Professional education represents about one-third of the tertiary system, includes numerous vocational training courses, and prepares for managerial or expert positions. Despite its prevalence, the long-term returns to professional education have rarely been investigated due to lacking data. In order to fill this gap, we will estimate the long-term returns to professional education based on a novel methodological design. Secondly, we aim to explain the differences in the returns to professional education between occupational fields by making use of the task-based approach of Autor, Levy and Murnane (2003). Analyses are based on the Swiss Labour Force Survey from 1991–2016. Based on a quasi-panel with cohort fixed effects and on linear regression models, our results reveal average short-term returns to professional education of 7% and long-term returns of 11%. However, we find considerable differences in the returns between training fields, which can partly be attributed to differences in the change of task composition after completion of professional education between occupations.

Post-traumatic Stress Disorder is common psychiatric morbidity among earthquake survivors, and if untreated people suffer from it for years. Government of Nepal and NGOs provided various short-term mental health services to the victims of the 2015 earthquake in Nepal, but there was no plan or provision for long-term mental health problems. The prevalence of PTSD following natural disasters depends on various local factors requiring understanding and further investigation before identifying affordable evidence based interventions. This paper discusses the need for PTSD research among the survivors of the 2015 earthquake in Nepal, and describes the challenges and difficulties of recruiting and training PTSD volunteers.  Keywords: earthquake; narrative exposure therapy; Nepal; prevalence; PTSD.

This article provides an overview of recent changes to state-level dyslexia legislation. It begins by applying a variant of Kingdon’s multiple streams approach to explain how the dyslexia education “policy window” came to be opened. The article then describes the most likely effects and side effects of the new laws. Likely short-term effects include (a) a greater focus in schools on dyslexia screening and intervention, (b) greater use of multitiered systems of support and explicit instruction, and (c) changes in teacher preparation and training. Possible long-term effects include a reconceptualization of what constitutes “normal” school practice.

Innovation Outcomes

The intention of this paper is to investigate innovation outcomes associated with complementary sets of training practices. Our analysis is performed using a multiple linear regression model with lagged variables on several different service sectors. We lagged three training and technology factors and noted the extent of innovation within and between these factors while comparing returns to innovation in the short-term (one year) to the long-term (the following six years). We hypothesised that the complexity of technology and process of learning by doing/using would result in short-term innovation returns being far less than those experienced in the long-term. We predicted the opposite would occur for the training factors due to the obsolescence of acquired skills over time. Our results show that short-term innovation returns for training factors are consistently higher than those for technology. This lends support to our hypothesis.

The debate on eco-innovation, although recent, is gaining relevance in the practical context of business and academia. The purpose of this research is to identify the characteristics and determinants of eco-innovation in SMEs from a systematic review of the literature. After reviewing the literature on eco-innovation in databases, it was possible to identify a list of relevant aspects on eco-innovation in the field of SMEs. Some of the main conclusions point to the need to contemplate in eco-innovation projects the three dimensions Of sustainability: economic, social, and environmental; The lack of neutrality in regulation and policies, which prioritises large companies to the detriment of SMEs; Specific actions for SMEs, technological advice, and awareness-raising, and training programs should be taken to improve cooperation with external stakeholders. Among the main barriers were the lack of resources (capital, knowledge, and skills), the focus of short-term management and the difficulty in radically innovating. Finally, the determinants and critical factors are associated with the innovative behaviour of SMEs in using networks to overcome their shortcomings, the role of the owner in driving innovation and its orientation towards sustainability within the enterprise, the long-term orientation of firm and, above all, the need for greater investment in innovation.
