2024-03-12T04:12:29+00:00

According to the Indonesian Department of Transportation, 86% of traffic accidents are attributed to human factors. Additionally, road conditions are identified as a contributing factor to road accidents. Therefore, this study aimed to explore road conditions and their impact on the driving behaviour of car drivers. Data for this exploration were collected by distributing questionnaires to 200 respondents, utilizing a Likert scale for answer options. The technique used was random sampling, utilizing descriptive statistical analysis and a Confirmatory Factor Analysis model. Consequently, the result showed that each latent variable construct examined by car drivers had a value exceeding 80%. The most prominent latent variable was the "Condition of Road Surface Facilities," accounting for 88.1% and featuring eight indicators. The indicator "Disturbed when passing through a narrow road," part of the latent variable "Condition of Road Equipment Facilities," had the highest standardized value at 1.223. Finally, this study suggested that the government should prioritize attention to road infrastructure conditions to enhance driver comfort and mitigate the risk of traffic accidents.

Characterization of Natural Zeolite Synthesized by Dealumination and Desilication Method

2024-03-12T04:50:21+00:00

Delamination and desilication are two methods used in the hierarchical synthesis of zeolites. This process is important for industrial applications, particularly in synthesizing natural zeolites due to their abundance. For instance, Lampung, Indonesia, has abundant natural zeolites. The synthesis process of natural zeolite can be simplified using the solvent swelling mechanism. The swelling solvent mechanism combines the dealumination and desilication methods into one process, making it advantageous to use natural zeolites as raw materials for manufacturing hierarchical zeolites on an industrial scale. The sample used in this study was Natural Zeolite Lampung (NZL), and the resulting product was characterized as NZL Swelling. In this study, only two characterization analyses were selected to test the reliability of the dealumination and desilication methods simultaneously in one process, namely XRD and BET.

Glass Ceiling Among Female Managers and Its Impact on Well-Being at Work

2024-03-12T05:21:07+00:00

Despite governmental attempts in years to significantly encourage and support legislation aimed at gender diversities in the workplace, women have continued to be notably underrepresented in leadership roles. Women have typically held lower-level leadership positions than men, and there is little supporting evidence that women are appropriately executed in decision-making positions. Such a phenomenon is commonly called the 'glass ceiling', highlighting that achieving fair representation in management boards remains challenging for women. While the glass ceiling has become a popular research topic, only some theoretical models have tried to comprehend this social phenomenon and its implications for social change. Therefore, this study aims to provide a further understanding of the glass ceiling and its consequences. Drawing on the theory of conservation of resources, this study investigates sequencing relationships among glass ceiling, work-to-family conflict, and well-being at work. The mass survey was distributed among female managers at Vietnam National University Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam. There were 275 valid cases for descriptive and inferential analysis with partial least square structural equation modelling. It reveals three main findings, including significant sequencing relationships among glass ceiling, work-to-family conflict, and intention to quit with positive impacts; a significantly positive causal relationship between the glass ceiling and intention to quit; and work-to-family conflicts as a significant mediator intervening causal relationship between glass ceiling and intention to quit. This study may bring theoretical and practical implications on the glass ceiling among female managers at work.

2024-03-12T05:39:27+00:00

The main actor of the service industry is service performance provided by the company to consumers. Service quality is a relevant concept to be applied and developed in the field of after-sales service in the automotive industry. This research integrates Servqual and Kano models into QFD. Servqual is used to determine the gap between consumer perceptions and expectations using 7 servqual dimensions. Kano's model for classifying consumer retention, QFD, and a link between consumer needs and the service design process requires a HoQ matrix consisting of six elements. Strengthen the determination of technical requirements elements; structured tools are used to find the problem root (gap), namely, the fishbone. The reason for integration is the goal of Servqual is to determine the gap so that the improvement process is only based on the gap value, while the Kano model method is only able to classify VoC based on 5 dimensions but is not yet able to assess performance attributes, so it is integrated into QFD because it can unite consumer desires with the company. This research was conducted at AHASS. The highest negative gap is the availability of brochures and information of -0.89, so the improvement step is to provide updated information boards and socialize brompit application. The HoQ matrix concludes that the technical response with the highest priority, 10.59%, is carrying out periodic performance evaluations. Highest goal of 4.97 is B04, B05, and B06. The highest improvement ratio was 1.22 (availability of brochures or information). Meanwhile, the obtained CSP of 4.66 is E01 and adjust importance score of 15.2 is C04.

2024-03-12T06:59:44+00:00

An important thing that needs to be considered to ensure the successful implementation of the project is planning. The current problem with RMC is the non-achievement of the target, which causes the company's condition to be not optimal. Stable production cost projections on construction projects have been a problem and a serious concern, especially for project contractors. Often, there is a deviation between the projected initial costs and the actual ones at the construction site. Production predictions need to be made to determine the accuracy of these needs. This study aims to predict the needs of production and raw materials in an industry and can accommodate the calculation of estimated profits. Prediction of an industry's production and raw material needs can be used as a reference in calculating profit estimates. The ADALINE method is a neural system consisting of several nodes. A node requires several input processes to produce one output, which can be used as a predictive model. The results show that the actual and simulation data results using the ADALINE model have 100% conformity. This shows that the ADALINE model on the neural network can also function as one of the prediction model choices in addition to performing a prediction function. Prediction results using neural networks are one of the alternative solutions for utilizing prediction models other than other prediction models.

2024-03-12T15:36:10+00:00

Autonomy is one of the critical developmental tasks in adolescence, however, research frequently focuses on the behavioral and emotional aspects. Meanwhile, the cognitive aspect of autonomy is equally important to be examined and promoted. Hence, this study aimed to examine the relationship between parenting style as a factor that significantly plays a role in the development of adolescent independence, and cognitive autonomy. This study involved 308 high-school Indonesian adolescents (58.1% female, 41.9% male). We used multiple regression analysis to examine the hypotheses. The study found that supportive parenting (warmth, structure, and autonomy support) was significantly associated with cognitive autonomy (p<0.001), while unsupportive parenting (rejection, chaos, and coercion) did not correlate with cognitive autonomy. In addition, there was no difference between male and female adolescents in cognitive autonomy levels. These results can be further utilized for future research and/or to develop intervention programs for adolescents' ability to think independently.

Burnt clay bricks, mostly used as non-structural wall unit materials in Indonesia, contain only clay in Bengkulu Province. A large amount of clay is used during clay brick production as a shrinkage effect of burning, while clay is a limited natural resource. Available non-plastic materials that can withstand combustion contraction are required to reduce the use of clay. Ash materials like fly ash and rice husk ash are non-plastic materials. The purposes of this research are to reduce clay usage, enlarge dimensions, and improve brick performance at the same time by adding coal fly ash (FA) and rice husk ash (RHA). This research is an experimental study of FA clay brick (FCB) and a combination of 50% FA and 50% RHA clay brick (FRCB). The ash was added to the mixture at weights of 10%, 20%, and 30% of clay. The factory-specified production method was used to create bricks. After the materials and water meltdown process to produce plastic material, bricks were molded, dried, and burned. Green and burnt brick measurements and weights were gathered. The Brick Indonesian Standard Code (SNI 15-2094-2000) was used while determining the bricks' compression strength and absorption. The mean values of the quantitative data were used after being analyzed through coefficient of variation values less than 10%. The result shows that the compressive strengths and absorption of 10% and 20% of the ash content of FCB meet the Indonesian code. Both brick volumes expand as the ash content increases. FRCB volume weight is 11%, 7.8%, and 8.1% lighter than FCB for 10%, 20%, and 30% ash content, respectively. Both brick varieties meet the ASTM code for nonload-bearing concrete masonry units. The use of FA and a mixture of FA and RHA enhances shrinkage, increases brick dimensions, and simultaneously lowers brick weight. Using lighter and larger bricks for the walls helps to recycle waste, reduce the mass of the building, and reduce the use of clay resources. Application 10% and 20% fly ash is recommended for increasing the size of clay bricks in Bengkulu Province, Indonesia.
