No full textThe culinary business is always available in every region both on a small and large scale. The culinary industry based on food and beverages is said to be a business with high potential. In this study using qualitative research methods. Qualitative research is descriptive research and tends to use analysis. Process and meaning (subject perspective) are more highlighted in qualitative research. The theoretical foundation is used as a guide so that the focus of the research is in accordance with the facts in the field. In addition, this theoretical basis is also useful for providing an overview of the research background and as a discussion of research results. There is a fundamental difference between the role of the theoretical basis in quantitative research and qualitative research. In quantitative research, research departs from theoretical data, and ends in acceptance or rejection of the theory used while in qualitative research the researcher departs from the data, utilizes existing theory as explanatory material, and ends with a "theory" The results showed that this information system can be used as a guide to relate to recording goods services to customers and the existence of a system in the warehouse can help to ease the performance of recording employee data, recording customer data, the number of stock items, the number of transactions that can be viewed by date and can make it easier for employees to make recording reports
Application of Binary Logistic Regression Method on Risk Factors of Death use to Covid-19 at H. Adam Malik Hospital in Medan
No full textThe COVID-19 pandemic is a global phenomenon that is in the limelight, because of its very fast spread and can hardly be avoided by various countries. In Indonesia, the highest number of daily cases based on JHU CSSE COVID-19 Data, occurred on February 16, 2022, which was 64,718 cases. Meanwhile, the highest death rate in Indonesia occurred on August 10, 2021, which was 2,048 cases. This is certainly a concern for many people about how and what are the factors causing the death rate due to COVID-19. This study aims to find out the factors that are most at risk of death from COVID-19. Factors to be studied include: gender, age, congenital diseases, length of treatment, respiratory frequency, and blood pressure of the patient. The data used in this study is secondary data obtained from the results of medical records of COVID-19 patients who were hospitalized at RSUP H. Adam Malik Medan as many as 90 people. The data analysis technique used is binary logsistic regression analysis. The results of binary logistic regression analysis are known from the 6 variables studied, there are only 4 variables that have a significant effect on deaths due to COVID-19. These variables are congenital diseases (x3), duration of treatment (x4), respiratory frequency (x5), and blood pressure (x6). The logistic regression model obtained is as follows. In[n(x)1−n(x)]=−1,739+2,057x3−1,558x4−1,983x5+1,948x6
So the most risky factor for death from COVID-19 is the congenital disease factor.78 PagesKertas Karya Diplom
Youth Risky and Antisocial Behaviors in Newfoundland and Labrador: The Perspectives of Young People
No full textWhat do young people know about youth risky and antisocial behaviors (RASB) and what do they suggest could be done to address these behaviors? Although there is much literature on youth RASB, there has been little qualitative exploration of the question stated here. The current study aimed to broach the question and to fill the gap. The study contributes to extant literature by exploring types of RASB among youth, reasons for these behaviors, and possible ways to address them from the perspectives of young people in Newfoundland and Labrador (NL). Constructivist and interpretive perspectives where reality is determined through the social processes of subjectivity and intersubjectivity informed the study. Eighteen young people aged 15 to 24 years participated in three focus group discussions (FGD), and data were analyzed thematically. The three main themes resulting from the process were: (1) a spectrum of behaviors, which comprised six types of behaviors; (2) constructed explanations, where participants identified five possible reasons for RASB; and (3) suggested interventions, which comprised three subthemes on interventions to address youth RASB. The findings and their implications for further research and for policy and practice are discussed.Memorial University Open Access Author's Fun
The Functionality of Risk-Taking: Mating Motivation, Relationship Status, and Sex Differences
No full textabstract: Men may engage in financially risky behaviors when seeking mates for several reasons: Risky behaviors can signal to potential mates one's genetic fitness, may facilitate success in status competition with other men, and may be a necessary strategy for gaining sufficient resources to offer potential mates. Once in a relationship, however, the same financial riskiness may be problematic for males, potentially suggesting to partners an interest in (extra-curricular) mate-seeking and placing in jeopardy existing resources available to the partner and the relationship. In the current research, we employed guided visualization scenarios to activate either a mating motivation or no motivation in single and in attached men and women. Participants indicated their preference for either guaranteed sums of money or chances of getting significantly more money accompanied by chances of getting nothing. As predicted, mating motivation led single men to become more risky and attached men to become less risky. These findings replicated across different samples and measures. Interestingly, in all three studies, women exhibited the opposite pattern: Mating motivation led single women to become less financially risky and attached women to become more risky. Thus, two additional experiments were conducted to explore the potential causes of this effect. The results of these latter experiments support the "mate-switching" hypothesis of risk-taking in attached women. That is, women who are able (i.e. have high mate value) were more risky in order to exit an undesirable relationship and move into a better one.Dissertation/ThesisPh.D. Psychology 201
Evaluasi Penggunaan Antibiotik di Ruang Gawat Darurat 3 Rumah Sakit Pemerintah Kota Medan
No full textThe hospital service unit that uses antibiotics a lot is the Emergency Room (IGD), which requires a fast response in providing services. Medication errors with serious consequences most often occur in the ER. Inappropriate use of antibiotics can be risky and have a negative impact on the form of wasted costs, resistance, drug interactions to cause toxic symptoms.
Objective: This study’s purpose to determine the pattern of antibiotic intake based on the name of antibiotics, group, treatment regimen, dosage form and the prevalence of antibiotic use in the emergency rooms of 3 Medan government hospitals.
Method: This cross-sectional retrospective design, descriptive survey research was conducted in IGD RSUP H. Adam Malik Medan, RSUD Dr. Pirngadi Medan, and North Sumatra University Hospital with medical record data for January-December 2019. The research sample is medical record data that meet the inclusion criteria.
Results: The results showed that the characteristics of most IGD patients were male, adult age category, with the most widely used antibiotics in hospital emergency installations by name was ceftriaxone (39.72%), cephadroxyl (13.16%) and cyprofloxacin ( 9.47%). Based on the group were β-lactam group (67.2%), fluoroquinolone (15.9%) and aminoglycosides (4.6%). Based on the dosage form were injected (56.4%), tablets (36.0%) and syrups (2.1%). Based on dosage regimen was every 24 hours. There were 3 rational prescribing indicators that do not meet the WHO indicator requirements, namely the number of drug items per patient (3.54 > WHO indicators: 1.5-2.2), the percentage of antibiotic prescribing (31.35% > WHO indicators: 22.7 %) and the percentage of injected (52,50% < WHO indicators: 100 %). The prevalence of antibiotic use in the emergency department of RSUP H. Adam Malik Medan was 34.75%, the emergency department of RSUD Dr. Pirngadi Medan was 27.25% and the ER at the Universitas Sumatera Utara Hospital was 38.54%.
Conclusion: Based on the results of the study, the names and groups of antibiotics that the most widely used was seftriaxone and β-Lactam, as well as the most widely used form of dosage form and regimen was injection and every 24 hours, with a percentage of antibiotic prescribing was 31.35%.Unit pelayanan rumah sakit yang banyak menggunakan antibiotik ialah Instalasi Gawat Darurat (IGD), yang dalam memberikan pelayanan dibutuhkan respon yang cepat. Kesalahan pemberian obat dengan konsekuensi serius paling sering terjadi salah satunya di IGD. Penggunaan antibiotik yang tidak tepat dapat berisiko serta memberikan dampak negatif berupa pemborosan biaya, resistensi, interaksi obat sampai menimbulkan gejala toksik.
Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pola peresepan antibiotik berdasarkan nama antibiotik, golongan, regimen pengobatan, bentuk sediaan serta prevalensi penggunaan antibiotik di ruang gawat darurat 3 rumah sakit pemerintah kota Medan.
Metode: Penelitian survei deskriptif rancangan retrospective cross-sectional ini dilakukan di IGD RSUP H. Adam Malik Medan, RSUD Dr. Pirngadi Medan, dan RS Universitas Sumatera Utara dengan data rekam medis bulan Januari-Desember 2019.

Grocery-anchored shopping centers : a better retail investment?
No full textThesis (S.M. in Real Estate Development)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Program in Real Estate Development in Conjunction with the Center for Real Estate, 2011.This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Cataloged from student-submitted PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (p. 42).A very popular hypothesis of late is that grocery-anchored shopping centers perform better and are less risky than other retail investments. This hypothesis is primarily based on three notions: 1) grocery stores are unique in their ability to attract shoppers on a regular basis, often two to three times a week. This provides a grocery-anchored shopping center with consistent traffic that benefits the in-line tenants; 2) Grocery stores represent a non-cyclical business. People need to eat whether the economy is strong or weak, therefore, grocery-anchored shopping centers can rely on a minimum level of traffic regardless of economic conditions; 3) Many retailers have experienced significant sales leakage to the Internet. This has recently led to the concept of replacing large stores with small showrooms. However, the Internet has not impacted the grocery store business as significantly. Although some grocers have attempted to implement online stores, the model has been difficult to implement and unsuccessful. Therefore, many investors view grocery-anchored shopping centers as a hedge to the threat of online shopping faced by other retailers. These three characteristics have led many core investors to allocate capital to grocery-anchored shopping centers since they are viewed as stable and low-risk investments relative to other real estate alternatives. The purpose of this Thesis is to evaluate the performance of grocery-anchored shopping centers relative to other real estate investments, primarily in terms of asset prices and capitalization rates. This Thesis will attempt to determine whether investors pay more for grocery-anchored shopping centers and whether a potential price premium is warranted based on actual performance. This Thesis will also measure the volatility of grocery-anchored shopping center prices compared to other retail and non-retail investments to help determine the relative risk of these investments.by Adam Schwank.S.M.in Real Estate Developmen
Teachers’ Attitudes to Education Transformation in Czech Schools
No full textThe text deals with teachers’ attitudes and opinions of the transformation of the Czech schools. It answers the following question: Which are the risky factors for current teachers to be able to adopt the concept of the integrated teaching process and to be able to get rid of residue of the encyclopaedic approach to the teaching process in Czech schools. Teachers’ attitudes and their connection with reflection of their work and their self-reflection are defined briefly. The author describes research problems, questions, hypotheses and aims of the research realised in 20 schools in the city of Ostrava and its neighbourhood within the Research Project of our organisation named New Opportunities in Education of Teachers, Educators and Pupils for the Learning Society of the 21st Century (VZO CEZ: JOB/98: 174500001) during the years 2000– 2003. She interprets results of this research and conclusions following from it for the pedagogical practice
“And I Am the Only Proof”. On Science-Fiction Poetry
No full textThe author of the article presents three concepts of the existence of
poetry in the framework of the science-fiction literary convention. The
first of the concepts, concretized by Suzette Haden Elgin, recognizes
a possibility of creating a lyrical monologue from inside of an assumed
fantastic reality. The other one, more risky, confronts the scientific discourse
with an intimate confession in the framework of allegory and hyperbole.
The third one, represented by Samuel R. Delany, Adam Roberts and
Seo-Young Chu’s views, recognizes the existence of poetry as a holistic
dimension of the science-fiction convention.Mariusz Maciej Leś, dr, adiunkt w Zakładzie Teorii i Antropologii Literatury w Instytucie Filologii Polskiej Uniwersytetu w Białymstoku.

Essays in empirical economics
No full textThis dissertation investigates a variety of empirical questions in urban economics, public finance, and political economy.
Urban transportation networks affect residents by defining point-to-point traveling costs, and this mechanism is especially salient for commutes between home and work.
In chapter 1, I study the effect of changes in public transit fares on the demographics of a modern city. A 1981 policy by the London government mandated that underground train fares be simplified and resulted in a fare structure that was discontinuous over space, creating fare zones within which transit costs were uniform. I find that subway ridership responded significantly by decreasing in neighborhoods where fares were raised most, with commuters spilling over mostly to riding buses. I also find that the occupation mix became more working-class in areas where fares were raised most.
In chapter 2, my co-author and I explore the political repercussions of ethnic resi-dential segregation. We study the case of the South Asian ethnic group in the United Kingdom and find that the British National Party– a nativist political party with explicitly anti-South Asian immigration messaging– gained more electoral support in geographies with more ethnic segregation between South-Asian and White-British residents. We address endogeneity concerns by constructing an instrument for South Asian residential segregation using prior migration flows.
In chapter 3, I estimate with co-authors the risk-adjusted future net costs as-sociated with the Social Security program in the United States. We compare our risk-adjusted methodology with a simpler method estimating the risk-free expected net costs similar to the Social Security Administration’s own calculation. We find that omitting risk leads to a substantial underestimate of the value of net liabilities which will be incurred given the current tax and benefit formulas. Our own method employs arbitrage pricing theory by considering the future receipts and outlays from social security as a risky asset and marking this asset to market using stock market factors. Based on our preferred estimate, its market value is 86% higher than the So-cial Security trustees’ valuation method suggests, ranging from 74% to 115% higher than that of the Social Security Administration depending on the specification
