<p>Indonesia implements Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB) which are enforced per region based on the severity of the outbreak and the assessment is determined by the central government through the Ministry of Health. Restrictions on activities for traveling have a great impact on areas that utilize the tourism industry. Restrictions on activities lead to a decline in the economy of the community, especially in areas that rely on the tourism industry. Infrastructure has an important role in efforts to recover the economy and tourism after the pandemic. The infrastructure used as the object of research is the project Port Munjul Bias, which is one of the ongoing port projects on Ceningan Island. The purpose of the study was to look at the strategy for developing the Port Bias Munjul in the post-Covid-19 pandemic recovery. The type of research used is qualitative research with descriptive data presentation. The approach used is a SWOT analysis to see the strategy for developing the Port Bias Munjul in the midst of the Covid-19 Pandemic. The results obtained are the construction of the Port Bias Munjul in prime condition (SO), which shows that the existence of the Port Bias Munjul project will play a very important role in the recovery of tourism and the economy in Nusa Ceningan or its surroundings. Strategies that can be carried out are in the form of cooperation between local governments and the private sector, empowerment of local communities and improvement of logistical support facilities.</p>

AbstractThis research examined the effect of self-construal (independent vs. interdependent) on people’s responses to disappointing brand experiences. We propose that following a disappointing brand experience, independents are more likely than interdependents to express intentions for negative behavior. This effect is due to differences in the importance ascribed to various goals: independents are focused on their own personal goals and expectations, whereas interdependents are focused on maintaining pleasant and harmonious relationships. Consequently, when independents experience disappointment (i.e., their expectations are not met), they appraise the situation as less pleasant than do interdependents. Independents are thus more likely to experience negative emotions, which in turn lead to negative behavioral intentions. Three studies, in which self-construal was primed, supported this prediction. In experiment 1 participants imagined a sports event where their favorite team played carelessly and lost. Participants in the independent (vs. interdependent) prime condition were more likely to express intentions of negative behavior toward the sports team; negative emotions partially mediated this effect. Experiment 2 provides evidence for the mediating role of emotional appraisal in the extent to which the disappointing experience (sports event) is perceived as unpleasant. Experiment 3 replicates these findings in the context of service failure at a restaurant. It also provides evidence for the role of prior expectations in this effect, demonstrating that the effect occurs only when participants have prior expectations, and does not occur in their absence. This research sheds light on the effects of self-construal on emotional and behavioral responses to negative brand experiences, and highlights the processes underlying these effects.

In being a basketball referee, he is required to be in good shape while in charge of leading the match, so in this case the researcher wants to know the VO2 Max ability of the Indonesian Basketball League basketball referee for the 2020-2021 season. The purpose of this study was to determine the ability of VO2 Max basketball referees in Indonesian Basketball League basketball referees for the 2020-2021 season. This study used a descriptive method with a test survey method. The study population was all basketball referees for the Indonesian Basketball League 2020-2021 season totaling 24 referees. Sampling in this study using total sampling technique. Of the 24 samples above VO2 Max is very good, good, sufficient, and moderate. The test and measurement technique is done by using multistage running (multistage fitness test) to measure VO2 Max. Based on the research results, the following conclusions were obtained; The physical ability of basketball referees in the Indonesian Basketball League, out of the 24 referees that we categorized as good, there were 3 with a percentage of 12.5% in the fair category, 17 referees with a percentage of 70.83% and 4 referees in the poor category with 16.6% and average value In conclusion, the researchers can say that physical training is still needed to add VO2 Max referees who are referees for Indonesian Basketball League basketball while leading the match in prime condition.

Abstract. This study examined the structure, reliability, and validity of a German version of the State Adult Attachment Measure (SAAM) by Gillath and colleagues ( Gillath et al., 2009 ). A satisfactory fit was found for the hypothesized three-factor model (comparative fit index = .840; RMSEA = .071 with 95% CI = .063, .079). The German SAAM subscales showed high internal consistency. Convergent and discriminant validity supported the state interpretation of the subscale scores. Furthermore, German SAAM scores explained variance in outcomes of mental health and well-being over and beyond trait attachment with the Security subscale accounting for most of the variance. One-week test–retest reliability did not differ from a trait attachment measure (Experiences in Close Relationship Scale). The DE-SAAM could capture fluctuations in Security scores induced by a security prime ( p = .007, d = 0.49). No effect of the prime condition (security vs. neutral) was found on Anxiety and Avoidance. Further research is needed to examine the validity of the state interpretation of all DE-SAAM subscale scores.

Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) is important to maintain and improve so that the quality of human resources in the company is always in prime condition. Every company has a different level or level of Occupational Health and Safety (OHS). PT. XYZ is a company that uses corrosive materials, therefore Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) analyst at PT XYZ is needed. The Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) analysis carried out in this study used the FMEA method to determine which part of the production process had Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) that needed repair the most. From the research results, it was found that the highest Risk Priority Number (RPN) value was the pickling and degreasing production process.

Ritual knots are symmetrical crisscrossing designs that appear in distant cultures around the world. Their independent emergence is plausibly due to shared features of human cognition and experience that such patterns represent. Since empirical investigation of this possibility is lacking in the literature, our aim is to open up this research area. We do so by asking whether the cultural production and appreciation of ritual knots could be conditioned or motivated by alignments and affordances linked to creative human cognition—advanced analogical modeling processes that are themselves often discussed in terms of bidirectional blending and symmetrical mapping. If manual tracing of a traditional knot design had positive priming effects on such reasoning processes, as we hypothesize, this would suggest an explanatory link between the two. To begin testing this hypothesis, we selected a basic, traditional knot design from Tibet, along with three established measures of formal analogical reasoning and one original measure of syntactic preference involving reciprocal constructions. We then undertook a series of cognitive trials testing for potential cognitive benefits of manually tracing the design. We contrasted prime condition results with a control group and an anti-prime condition group. The data show observable effects of time across multiple measures but no significant effects of time or condition, controlling for reported mindfulness. While this rules out the short-term priming effects of enhanced analogical reasoning at the analytic level following brief manual tracing of this design, the research opens the way for further empirical experimentation on the nature and emergence of symmetrical knots and their potential relationships with patterns of human thought.

Tambora field is a mature gas field located in a swamp area of Mahakam delta without artificial lift. The main objective of this project is to unlock existing oil resources. Most oil wells could not flow because there is no artificial lift, moreover the network pressure is still at Medium Pressure (20 Barg). Given the significant stakes, the option to operate the testing barge continuously as lifting tool is reviewed. The idea is to set the separator pressure to 1-3 Barg, so that the wellhead flowing pressure could be reduced to more than 15 Barg which will create higher drawdown in front of the reservoir. The oil flows from the reservoir into the gauge tank, where it is then returned to the production line by transfer pumps. The trial was performed in well T-1 for a week in November 2017 and successfully produced continuous oil with a stable rate of 1000 bbls/d. What makes this project unique is the continuous operation for a long period of time. Therefore, it is important to ensure the capacity of the gauge tank and the transfer pump compatibility with the rate from the well, the system durability which required routine inspection and maintenance to ensure the testing barge unit is in prime condition and to maintain vigilance and responsiveness of personnel. This project started in 2018 for several wells and the cumulative production up to January 2020 has reached 158 k bbls and will be continued as there are still potential oil resources to be unlocked. Innovation does not need to be rocket science. Significant oil recovery can be achieved with a simple approach considering all safety operation, production and economic aspect.

In a test of their global-/local-processing-style model, Förster, Liberman, and Kuschel (2008) found that people assimilate a primed concept (e.g., “aggressive”) into their social judgments after a global prime (e.g., they rate a person as being more aggressive than do people in a no-prime condition) but contrast their judgment away from the primed concept after a local prime (e.g., they rate the person as being less aggressive than do people in a no prime-condition). This effect was not replicated by Reinhard (2015) in the Reproducibility Project: Psychology. However, the authors of the original study noted that the replication could not provide a test of the moderation effect because priming did not occur. They suggested that the primes might have been insufficiently applicable and the scenarios insufficiently ambiguous to produce priming. In the current replication project, we used both Reinhard’s protocol and a revised protocol that was designed to increase the likelihood of priming, to test the original authors’ suggested explanation for why Reinhard did not observe the moderation effect. Teams from nine universities contributed to this project. We first conducted a pilot study ( N = 530) and successfully selected ambiguous scenarios for each site. We then pilot-tested the aggression prime at five different sites ( N = 363) and found that it did not successfully produce priming. In agreement with the first author of the original report, we replaced the prime with a task that successfully primed aggression (hostility) in a pilot study by McCarthy et al. (2018). In the final replication study ( N = 1,460), we did not find moderation by protocol type, and judgment patterns in both protocols were inconsistent with the effects observed in the original study. We discuss these findings and possible explanations.

ABSTRACTAbsolute pitch (AP) refers to the ability of identifying the pitch of a given tone without reliance on any reference pitch. The downside of possessing AP may be the experience of disturbance when exposed to out-of-tune tones. Here, we investigated this so-far unexplored phenomenon in AP, which we refer to as auditory aversion. Electroencephalography (EEG) was recorded in a sample of AP possessors and matched control musicians without AP while letting them perform a task underlying a so-called affective priming paradigm: Participants judged valenced pictures preceded by musical primes as quickly and accurately as possible. The primes were bimodal, presented as tones in combination with visual notations that either matched or mismatched the actually presented tone. Regardless of the prime condition, AP possessors performed more poorly in judging pleasant pictures and their EEG revealed later peaks at around 200 ms (P200) after prime onset. Their performance dropped when responding to pleasant pictures preceded by incongruent primes, especially when mistuned by one semitone. This interference was also reflected in an EEG deflection at around 400 ms (N400) after picture onset, preceding the behavior responses. These findings suggest that AP possessors process mistuned musical stimuli and pleasant pictures as affectively unrelated with each other, supporting an aversion towards out-of-tune tones in AP possessors. The longer prime-related P200 latencies exhibited by AP possessors suggest a delay in integrating musical stimuli, underlying an altered affinity towards pitch-label associations.

Osteoporosis is an important health problem, and the number of patients who suffered from it is increasing. Breast cancer is a condition that has a high risk of osteoporosis. Cancer induced bone disease results from the primary disease, metastatic process, or from therapies against the prime condition, causing bone fragility. Therefore, there are still different opinions regarding the therapeutic effect of breast cancer on bone mineral density. Aim: to determine the effect of chemotherapy and hormonal therapy on bone mineral density in patients with breast cancer in Saiful Anwar Hospital Malang. Method: this is a case-control study conducted in 30 patients with breast cancer who had undergone chemotherapy and hormonal therapy are compared to 30 patients without breast cancer as controls. Bone Mineral Density (BMD) was measured by DEXA. Result: there are 53% of breast carcinoma patients having osteopenia and 13% having osteoporosis, with one patient has osteoporosis located in the femoral neck and three patients in lumbar (L1-L4). We obtain a significant T-score (p=0.02) in the great trochanter. Odds Ratio (OR) 0.233 with p = 0.008 showed a protective effect of chemotherapy and hormonal therapy for breast cancer to the bone density. Conclusion: the incidence of osteoporosis in the study was 13%, with the most location in the lumbar spine. Chemotherapy and hormonal therapy had a protective effect on BMD in patients with breast cancer in Saiful Anwar Hospital Malang.
