Survival And Growth

The emergence of a new coronavirus that causes COVID-19 has generated multiple consequences that have affected the lives of all human beings, imposing a new normal where social distancing and mobility restrictions have become the norm. This situation has also affected organizations forcing them to create or strengthen strategies to respond to the situation to guarantee their survival and growth, which has made it essential to have full commitment from employees. Structural equations were used to design an instrument that was used with managers and middle managers at 130 Mexican companies. Once reliability and validity were tested and confirmed, the study found that there is a positive and significant relation between organizational strategies applied during the health emergency and employee commitment with the organization.

Continuous Use

Natural resources are important for human beings to sustain life on earth. However, continuous use of natural resources by the human beings, had affected the earth. There is need to manage our natural resources to improve the sustainability of the natural resources. Women have always come to forward to conserve and protect natural resources because they are the primary users of natural resources traditionally as well as modern. In this paper, A scale has been developed and standardized that can be used to measure the role of farm women towards natural resource management activities. The scale was developed by using the technique of “Scale Product Method” which combines the Thurston’s technique of equal appearing interval scale for selection of the items and Likert’s technique of summated rating for ascertaining the response on the scale. A total of 78 Natural Resource Management (NRM) activities were selected. Based on Scale (median) value and Q value, 72 Natural Resource Management (NRM) was selected to measure the role of farm women towards natural resource management activities. The co-efficient of reliability was calculated by the Rulon’s formula i.e. 0.81 and the content validity was observed thoroughly. The reliability and validity of the scale indicate its consistency and precision of the results. This scale can be used to measure the role of farm women in natural resource management activities.

Objective - The purpose of this research article is to examine the structural aspects of the contingent variables from the user side and the provider side of e-learning in accounting education and to explore and develop insights on how it can be applied to the changing ways of communication today in the new normal era. Methodology/Technique – We conducted research on e-learning users through 359 (three hundred and fifty nine) students majoring in accounting by using path analysis to obtain measurement results from 2 (two) structural equations. Findings - From the expectations of students as users of e-learning, it showed, first, there are no significance from relevant learning-teaching methods, students self-interest, outcome- based education (OBE) curriculum base, towards implementation of contingency e-learning . Otherwise, engagement within regulatory compliance as the only variable that can be used as an antecedent to predict the implementation of contingency e-learning. Second, relevant learning - teaching methods, and OBE curriculum base play a role in predicting the achievement of learning outcomes effectiveness. Novelty - This research provides insight and contribution to support the accounting education process that takes place in the new normal era after the Covid-19 crisis. Effective communication leads to the achievement of effective learning outcomes. This is explained by the role of engagement within regulatory compliance from students towards contingency e-learning in the accounting department as well as with the role of relevant teaching and learning, and the role of OBE curriculum as new insights from the facts of this research.

Pembatasan sosial efektif dalam mencegah transmisi Covid-19 tetapi berpotensi merugikan perekonomian. Bisnis yang bergantung pada pelayanan dan komunikasi tatap muka menjadi sangat rentan. Bali, salah satu provinsi yang 80 persen masyarakatnya menggantungkan hidup pada pariwisata, mengalami dampak signifikan pada okupansi penginapan yang menurun dari 60,37 persen pada Juli 2019 menjadi 2,07 persen pada  Juli 2020. Penurunan ini disebabkan oleh kecemasan tertular Covid-19, keraguan akan jaminan keamanan penginapan, serta lockdown yang dilakukan oleh berbagai negara. Menanggapi hal ini, pemerintah menerbitkan istilah new normal. Berdasarkan penelitian, terdapat dua perlakuan yang dapat dilakukan  oleh pemilik usaha penginapan yaitu Lecit (let’s complete it together)  dan Lesy (let us serve you). Lecit ditujukan untuk konsumen yang menginginkan harga murah (penurunan harga drastis) dengan fasilitas protokol kesehatan standar (social distancing, sanitasi yang memadai, dan disinfektan) dan lebih cocok untuk penginapan yang bersifat privat. Lesy ditujukan untuk konsumen yang bersedia membayar harga normal atau penurunan harga wajar dengan fasilitas kesehatan yang maksimal dan lebih cocok untuk penginapan yang memiliki beberapa ruangan penginapan dalam satu lokasi. Kedua solusi tersebut dapat dipertimbangkan karena berdasarkan penelitian, sebanyak 71 persen responden enggan menyewa penginapan karena cemas tertular Covid-19.

Abstract Several instruments have been developed to measure the human beings-nature relationship, one of which is the Love and Care for Nature Scale. Three studies were conducted with the aim of analyzing to what extent the construct of love and care for nature, responds to two empirically different dimensions, as well as conducting a psychometric study of the scale. The analysis of construct components showed a large cluster formed by two others (connectedness and well-being), considered “love for nature”, and one two-items cluster referring to “care” (Study 1, n = 51). Considering the “love” items, it was found that ten of the items present adequate psychometric properties (Study 2, n = 1071), and adequate levels of reliability and validity (Study 3, n = 151). Consequently, an appropriate measure of love of nature is established, while an interesting future research line would be to separately study the scale’s two components.

The Way

Technological development has changed the way users relate to products, they are no longer passive receivers of functions to interact with increasingly complex systems. This research addresses the problem of consumer interaction with public electronic technology products. There are several studies dealing with the disciplines that study the interaction between the user and the electronic product (Preece, 2005; Johnson-Laird, 1983; Helander, 1997, Sutcliffe, 1995; Norman, 1990; Moraes, 2001), making it possible to obtain knowledge about human beings, technology and the way they operate. This research aims to identify the areas of interaction design that involve the human-machine system, in particular the disciplines that contribute to good usability. Six typologies are proposed that describe specific interface characteristics studied according to the model of complexity defined by Gomes Filho (2003). Exploratory research in Portugal identified twenty-six interactive systems. To characterize the public electronic systems, the study presents a structured analysis of the variables mentioned previously, in relation to both reliability and validity, as well as functionality. The results are compared with the literature and the implications discussed for the design of the User Interface System Model.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/IFDP.2016.3287

Pasar tradisional adalah tiga layanan publik yang tidak ditutup selama pandemi COVID-19, selain Rumah Sakit dan Stasiun Pengisian Bahan Bakar Umum. Regulasi social distancing hampir tidak berlaku di pasar tradisional. Ada apa dengan pasar tradisional di Yogyakarta, betulkah pasar tradsional tidak punya adat-istiadat peraturan turun temurun tentang proksemika. Kebaruan ukuran jarak interaksi antar manusia saat pandemic COVID-19 akan dianalisa menggunakan metode desain berkelanjutan biomimikri. Mencari sumber solusi desain berdasarkan sistem alam semesta. Manfaat penelitian adalah menemukan jarak new normal atau new hidden dimension yang dimiliki oleh kearifan lokal masyarakat Yogyakarta. Berguna bagi ilmu desain pasar new normal dan pasar di masa depan.
