170 Hispanic Ethnicity May Be Associated with Short Sleep Duration and Elevated Sleep Distress in U.S. Air Force Trainees

Introduction Sleep research among Hispanic populations is limited. Hispanics may be at higher risk of poor sleep when compared to other race/ethnicities. Non-white and other socioeconomically disadvantaged populations have higher rates of chronic health conditions. Epidemiological studies have substantiated the correlation between short sleep and a variety of negative health outcomes. Sleep is foundational to overall good health and functioning, impacting academic and physical performance in technical training, and crucial for an airmen’s adjustment to the rigor of a military career. Authors explored the role of race/ethnicity on perceived sleep health (e.g., sleep duration and sleep distress) among airmen attending technical school. Methods Sleep health survey was administered to two groups of Airmen at an Air Force technical training: In-processing: Airmen who just arrived to begin technical training, (n=187), Age: M= 20.83 (SD 3.26), 82.55% Male; upon completion of training, i.e., Out-processing: Airmen about to complete technical training, (n=302), Age M = 20.7 (SD 3.09), 85.81% Male. To account for correlations between Airmen from the same squadron, a covariates-adjusted generalized mixed-effects model was used. Associations between race/ethnicity and short sleep duration (≤6 hours), and between race/ethnicity and sleep pattern distress—among shorter sleepers as a sub-group—were examined. Racial/Ethnic frequency among short sleepers (n=135): 19.3 % Hispanic, 13.3% NH-Black, 55.6% NH-White, 6.6% NH-Multiracial, and 5.2% NH-Other. Results Among Hispanic Airmen, the out-processing group was 2.25 times as likely as the in-processing group to be short sleepers on weekdays (95% CI: 1.15 to 4.38, p=0.017). Among short sleepers in the out-processing group, Hispanic Airmen were significantly more worried/distressed about their sleep pattern than Black and White Airmen (OR=2.29, 95% CI: 1.18 to 4.42, p=0.014 and OR=2.29, 95% CI: 1.10 to 4.76, p=0.026, respectively). Conclusion Short sleep duration is a significant problem in the military and results suggest that race/ethnicity-related contextual factors may point to at risk subgroups. Others have considered the influence of perceived prejudice, access to social capital, cultural barriers to academic success, and potential sensitivity to somatic discomfort on sleep complaints. Future directions involve repeating this assessment with another cohort of technical training Airmen to see if findings replicate. Support (if any) none

Pre-processing, group accretion and the orbital trajectories of associated subhaloes

We use a high-resolution cosmological dark matter-only simulation to study the orbital trajectories of haloes and subhaloes in the environs of isolated hosts. We carefully tally all apsis points and use them to distinguish haloes that are infalling for the first time from those that occupy more evolved orbits. We find that roughly 21 per cent of resolved subhaloes within a host’s virial radius are currently on first infall, and have not yet reached their first orbital pericentre; roughly 44 per cent are still approaching their first apocentre after infall. For the range of host masses studied, roughly half of all accreted systems were pre-processed prior to infall, and about 20 per cent were accreted in groups. We confirm that the entire population of accreted subhaloes – often referred to as “associated” subhaloes – extends far beyond the virial radii of their hosts, with roughly half currently residing at distances that exceed ≈1.2 × r200. Many of these backsplash haloes have gained orbital energy since infall, and occupy extreme orbits that carry them well past their initial turnaround radii. Such extreme orbits are created during the initial accretion and dissolution of loosely bound groups, but also through penetrating encounters between subhaloes on subsequent orbits. The same processes may also give rise to unexpectedly abrupt losses of orbital energy. These effects combine, giving rise to a large variation in the ratio of sequent apocentres for accreted systems. We find that, within 2 virial radii from host centres, the concentrations of first-infall haloes are remarkably similar those of isolated field haloes, whereas backsplash haloes, as well as systems that were pre-processed, are considerably more concentrated.

Peningkatan Kapasitas Masyarakat Kopi di Desa Aik Berik, Kecamatan Batu Kliang Utara, Kabupaten Lombok Barat

Coffee is one of the important plantation crops in West Lombok Regency, with one of the Robusta coffee production centers in Batu Kliang Utara district. This production is generally sold by growers in raw or unprocessed form, but some people do the processing individually or in groups. The coffee processing group has processed and marketed coffee with some success, characterized by their almost always depleted product. However, they stated that they still wanted to move forward and receive guidance or advice on different aspects of coffee from the aspects of production, processing, business development, marketing and the use of technology such as online marketing. This manufacturing problem is exacerbated by marketing and business management issues. In order to overcome these problems and at the same time improve the living conditions of the community, this service activity was carried out, namely transferring knowledge about increasing the capacity of the coffee community in Aik Berik Village, Batu Kliang Utara District, West Lombok Regency. The aim of this activity in general is to increase the income of community actors, especially coffee farmers and their families. The phases of activities to achieve these overall goals are carried out through specific objectives to improve technical marketing and management capabilities. Evaluation of activities shows positive results in the form of increased knowledge and enthusiasm for business due to the potential for increased benefits obtained through the application of the acquired knowledge and previous knowledge. Therefore, these types of activities must be redone in new locations and in new (business) activity fields. Awareness activities such as these must be carried out as they are necessary for the local community and the potential for natural and human resources to carry out these activities is quite high.

Production Efficiency of Enbal (Cassava) Using Hydraulic Press Equipment in the Enbal Processing Group in Ibra Village, Southeast Maluku Regency

The business group which is become the target of this activity is a group of processing and selling enbal (cassava) in Ibra village, Southeast Maluku regency. This group has been producing for more than 10 years but there are still many shortage, especially in the way of press along with the sanitize and hygiene of the production process. The purpose of this activity is to increase the efficiency in production process by applying screw press equipment and improving sanitation and hygiene in its production. The method of implementing activities uses discussion and training techniques. The activity is carried out in three stages, firstly survey on condition and discussion with partners relates to the conditions of producing pressing enbal, secondly the manufacture of pressing tools, third is the application of pressing tools in production activities of partners. The results of the activity showed that the screw press was able to produce enough water of enbal / grated cassava so that it is drier than the traditional method. Press time becomes faster which only 12-15 minutes, whereas in the traditional way it takes 14-24 hours. The content of enbal’s water decreases very low, reaching 5-7%, the sanitation becomes better because the juice is no longer stagnant on the ground but is collected in a bucket, and the use of pressing tools is very practical. Likewise the HCN level is very low, less than 3mg / kg so the product is very safe for consumption. This screw press is very helpful in the efficiency of the production process of plate enbal (cassava plates) which is cleaner and healthier.

The data were obtained from the catfish product processing group in Kediri Regency. Data were analyzed using the transportation optimization method model. The results of the analysis show that all factory capacities can meet the demands of all markets. There is not a single market that is not fulfilled. Suggestions for the research that the maximum profit can be achieved is the allocation of factory 1 product shipments to Tulungagung 165 packs and Ponorogo 65 packs. Factory 2 sent 220 packs to Ponorogo, Surabaya 50 packs, Jakarta 130 packs. Factory 3 sent to Tulungagung 50 packs. Factory 4 sends 100 packs to Ponorogo with a total minimum cost of IDR 620,000.

Changing the means of managerial work: effects of automated decision support systems on personnel selection tasks

To enhance the quality and efficiency of information processing and decision-making, automation based on artificial intelligence and machine learning has increasingly been used to support managerial tasks and duties. In contrast to classical applications of automation (e.g., within production or aviation), little is known about how the implementation of automation for management changes managerial work. In a work design frame, this study investigates how different versions of automated decision support systems for personnel selection as a specific management task affect decision task performance, time to reach a decision, reactions to the task (e.g., enjoyment), and self-efficacy in personnel selection. In a laboratory experiment, participants (N = 122) were randomly assigned to three groups and performed five rounds of a personnel selection task. The first group received a ranking of the applicants by an automated support system before participants processed applicant information (support-before-processing group), the second group received a ranking after they processed applicant information (support-after-processing group), and the third group received no ranking (no-support group). Results showed that satisfaction with the decision was higher for the support-after-processing group. Furthermore, participants in this group showed a steeper increase in self-efficacy in personnel selection compared to the other groups. This study combines human factors, management, and industrial/organizational psychology literature and goes beyond discussions concerning effectiveness and efficiency in the emerging area of automation in management in an attempt to stimulate research on potential effects of automation on managers’ job satisfaction and well-being at work.
