Using latest 32 years (1964-95) data, upper air temperatures and zonal and meridional components of winds of several selected stations for various standard isobaric levels (850 to 10 hPa) are screened for the pre-monsoon months of April & May in order to study their association with onset date of southwest monsoon at Delhi. Data for temperature and wind components for May for several stations exhibit significant correlations with onset-date. Some well known parameters presently in use in long range forecast models of monsoon seasonal rainfall have also been screened similarly. With a multiple regression technique, equations have been developed using suitable parameters from those which showed significant linear correlations.

Abstract This study is aimed at examining the effects of auditor's attitude towards professional skepticism, the competence of audit evidence, and the pressure of time on the detection of fraud in the Bener Meriah Inspectorate Office. The data of the study were collected by distributing questionnaires to all 39 auditors/inspectors of the Inspectorate of Bener Meriah and then analyzed using the multiple regression technique. The study found that: (1) the auditor's attitude toward professional skepticism, the competence of audit evidence, and the time pressures simultaneously and significantly affected the detection of fraud,(2) the auditor's attitude toward professional skepticism positively affected the fraud detection, (3) the competence of audit evidence positively affected the fraud detection,and (4) the time pressures negatively affected the detection of fraud.Keywords: the auditor's attitude, professional skepticism, competence of the audit evidence, time pressure fraud detection. Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji pengaruh sikap skeptisme profesional auditor, kompetensi bukti audit dan tekanan waktu secara bersama-sama terhadap pendeteksian kecurangan pada Inspektorat Kabupaten Bener Meriah. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian pengujian hipotesis dengan sumber data yang dikumpulkan dengan kuesioner dan dianalisis dengan menggunakan analisis regresi berganda. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah seluruh auditor/pemeriksa di Inspektorat Kabupaten Bener Meriah, dengan responden berjumlah 39 aparatur yang bekerja pada Inspektorat Kabupaten Bener Meriah. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa: (1) sikap skeptisme profesional auditor, kompetensi bukti audit dan tekanan waktu secara simultan berpengaruh signifikan terhadap pendeteksian kecurangan; (2) sikap skeptisme profesional auditor berpengaruh positif terhadap pendeteksian kecurangan; (3) kompetensi bukti audit berpengaruh positif terhadap pendeteksian kecurangan, dan (4) tekanan waktu berpengaruh negatif terhadap pendeteksian kecurangan.Kata kunci: sikap skeptisme profesional auditor, kompetensi bukti audit, tekanan waktu, dan pendeteksian kecurangan

ABSTRACT .The tropospheric mean monthly thickness anomalies of northern Indian stations of selected layers for the months April to July for a 28 years (1968-95) period have been analysed. The thickness anomalies of April and May exhibit significant persistence through July. Also the thickness anomalies of different layers for the months May-July are found to have generally significant (5% to 0.1% level) linear correlations with the succeeding all India seasonal monsoon rainfall. Out of different layers and all the months analysed, the thickness anomalies of 850-300 and 850-100 hPa layers for May are found to have maximum correlations (significant at 0.1% level). From linear and multiple regression results, 850-300 hPa thickness anomaly is seen to be a useful predictor for long range prediction of Indian monsoon rainfall.

Although the number of Islamic co-operatives' memberships only amounted to 2.51 million people (11.19%) to the total membership of co-operatives in Indonesia nationwide, but it has shown a rising trend in its membership by 76.11% over the last decade (Ministry of Co-Operatives & SMEs, 2019). These figures raise an essential research question: what drives the decision of Indonesian citizens to patronage Islamic co-operatives? Specifically, this study explores pertinent determinants of decision-making made by the members to select Islamic co-operatives in Aceh, Indonesia. A number of 280 members and non-members of Islamic co-operatives were selected as the sample of the study using a purposive sampling technique. Based on the logistic multiple regression technique, the study recorded that the members' decision-making in selecting Islamic co-operatives was mainly determined by their shari'ah compliance and characteristics' uniqueness. Meanwhile, physical facilities and services quality provided by the Islamic co-operatives have insignificant effects on the people's decision-making to become the memberships of Islamic co-operatives. This empirical evidence suggested that to attract more memberships, the Islamic co-operatives should improve their shari'ah compliance and characteristics' uniqueness.
