The global COVID-19 outbreak has had a major impact on the marine and fisheries industry in Indonesia. This is also felt by fishermen in Lampung Province with the decline in demand for fishery ...products in the domestic and international markets in Lampung Province. The overall decline in the fisheries production cycle is influenced by the decline in demand from consumers. The local government has an important role to help restore the condition. The problem in this research is how the authority of the local government of Lampung Province in the management of fisheries resources in the era of regional autonomy and how the efforts of the marine and fisheries office of Lampung Province in an effort to achieve fisheries production in the era of regional autonomy. The research method used is normative research with statute approach. The results of this study are in accordance with the Governor's Regulation on the determination of the main tasks and functions of the Lampung Province Maritime and Fisheries Service as an implementing element of local government in the field of marine and fisheries led by a Head of Service who is responsible to the Governor. he goal is to implement the commitment of the Governor and Deputy Governor elected in 2019-2024 on marine and the Berjaya Fishermen Program to prioritize the welfare of the fishing industry, especially fishermen and their families. The Lampung Provincial Maritime and Fisheries Service provides solutions in the form of feed assistance in collaboration with Lampung University, fish nurseries and distribution in four districts and cities as well as Mobilizing registration and licensing to increase the capacity of fishermen and facilitate licensing and shipping documentation.
This study aims to understand when and how domestic violence victims’ relational autonomy changes and to propose an intervention model stemming from the findings. Using qualitative and social network ...analysis, we study the actions of network members, as well as changing features of victims’ networks. Results show that victims base their decisions on their expectations toward others, and on a desire to preserve their autonomy. Their relational autonomy tends to increase when they leave abusive partners and stay in shelters, but maintaining relational diversity proves challenging once they exit shelters. A network-based model of intervention that aims to improve the victims’ relational autonomy is proposed.
The Learning Climate Questionnaire (LCQ) measures teacher autonomy support in the classroom. There are various versions of the LCQ available, a 15‐item full‐scale version and a 6‐item shortened ...version. Recent research suggests that using a 5‐item version of LCQ is a more effective measure of teacher autonomy support. Using data from a sample of Filipino undergraduate students, the single‐factor structure of the Five‐item LCQ (LCQ‐5) was validated through confirmatory factor analysis along with three longer versions of the scale. Results showed that LCQ‐5 outperformed the alternative versions of LCQ in terms of model fit. To demonstrate construct validity, LCQ scores were correlated with measures of parent and peer autonomy support, as well as with the short version of the self‐oriented perfectionism subscale of the Hewitt and Flett Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale. LCQ‐5 also displayed gender invariance and good internal consistency. The findings suggest that the LCQ‐5 can be used as a brief but psychometrically valid measure of teacher autonomy support. Implications for the measurement of teacher autonomy support are discussed.
Practitioner Points
The Five‐item Learning Climate Questionnaire (LCQ‐5) is a brief, valid and reliable measure for teacher autonomy support. As teachers are significant attachment figures in the educational setting, an efficient measure for teacher autonomy support would be useful in investigating how the quality of their relationships with their students impacts psychological and academic outcomes.
By demonstrating the relationship between teacher autonomy support and self‐oriented perfectionism, the current study provides useful information on how an autonomy‐supportive environment could aid in the development of an adaptive form of perfectionism.
LCQ‐5 can be used to add to the evidence on how teacher autonomy support reduces anxiety and depression (Tang et al., 2013), promotes well‐being, academic self‐regulation (Chirkov & Ryan, 2001), academic performance, academic engagement (Jeno et al., 2018; Liu et al., 2014), better emotion regulation, among many other things.
Since the turn of the millennium, the information technology (IT) industry has been growing rapidly in mainland China. One of the significant characteristics of IT employees in mainland China during ...the past decades was that they tended to work more overtime, which might result in more work-family conflicts and higher turnover rates. Our study tested the mechanism of work-family conflict and work withdrawal behaviors using data from 389 IT employees in mainland China. Using the job demands-resources model and the conservation of resources theory, we examined the mediating effect of emotional exhaustion and the moderating effect of job autonomy. The results indicated that work-to-family conflict was negatively related with work withdrawal behaviors, whereas family-to-work conflict was positively related with work withdrawal behaviors. Moreover, we found the opposite moderating role of job autonomy, which enhanced the relationships between emotional exhaustion and work withdrawal behaviors. That is, the relationship was stronger among employees with higher job autonomy than among those with lower job autonomy. These findings indicate that work-family conflict relates to employees’ psychological well-being and behavior, and that job autonomy might play a special role between work-family conflict and work withdrawal behaviors.
Abstract Objective Physical education (PE) programs aim to promote physical activity (PA) and reach most school-aged youth. However, PA levels within PE lessons are often low. In this ...cluster-randomized controlled trial, we examined the effects of three self-determination theory-based motivational strategies on PA and sedentary behavior, as well as their hypothesized antecedents during PE lessons. Methods Data were collected in Sydney, Australia (October–December 2011). After baseline testing, teachers (n = 16) and their classes (n = 288 students; M = 13.6 years, 50.4% male) were randomly assigned to one of four teaching strategy conditions: (1) explaining relevance; (2) providing choice; (3) complete free choice; or (4) usual practice. Teachers then delivered the assigned strategy. Primary outcomes were accelerometer-assessed PA and student motivation during lessons. Secondary outcomes included sedentary behavior, perceptions of teachers' support and psychological needs satisfaction. Results The ‘free choice’ intervention increased PA ( p < .05). ‘Providing choice’ and ‘free choice’ interventions decreased sedentary behavior ( p < .05). The interventions did not influence motivation, but students' autonomy increased during both choice-based interventions ( p < .05). Conclusions Promoting choice can produce short-term increases in PA and decreases in sedentary behavior, as well as increased perceived autonomy during PE lessons.
As robots become more autonomous, people will see them as more responsible for wrongdoing. Moral psychology suggests that judgments of robot responsibility will hinge on perceived situational ...awareness, intentionality, and free will, plus human likeness and the robot’s capacity for harm. We also consider questions of robot rights and moral decision-making.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of sex on facultys' perception of resident autonomy and performance.
Autonomy/performance/complexity evaluations performed by faculty of ...categorical general surgery residents (2015-2021) were analyzed. Comparisons of scores by faculty and resident sex were performed.
A total of 10967 paper/electronic evaluations were collected. Female attendings rated female residents significantly lower in autonomy when compared to males (2.75 vs 2.91, p = 0.0037). There was no significant difference in autonomy ratings for male versus female residents when evaluated by a male attending (2.93 vs 2.96, p = 0.054) but male attendings did rate female residents significantly lower in autonomy at the highest complexities (2.37 vs 2.50, p = 0.012).
The data suggests a unique interaction between attending and resident sex. A periodic evaluation of evaluations within one's program may provide invaluable implicit bias insight and should be considered.
Numerous investigations have examined anchoring effects, but most of them studied individuals from similar cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds. Replication studies have shown that anchoring ...heuristics have heterogeneous effects across different cultural groups. In the present investigation, we examined this heterogeneity by looking for associations between effect size and cultural values orientation. We conducted pre‐registered meta‐analyses of four anchoring tasks, using open data provided by previous works and collected from 6,344 participants in 10 countries. The analyses confirmed that anchoring effects display strong heterogeneity between cultures. Moreover, specific cultural values orientations explained substantial amounts of variability in anchoring effect sizes between cultures: Intellectual Autonomy and Egalitarianism were negatively correlated with anchoring effect size, as we had expected. Surprisingly, Harmony was also negatively correlated with anchoring effect size, whereas Mastery had a positive association. These results suggest that cultural differences can play an important role in observed anchoring effect size.
Since Mill's seminal work On Liberty, philosophers and political theorists have accepted that we should respect the decisions of individual agents when those decisions affect no one other than ...themselves. Indeed, to respect autonomy is often understood to be the chief way to bear witness to the intrinsic value of persons. In this book, Sarah Conly rejects the idea of autonomy as inviolable. Drawing on sources from behavioural economics and social psychology, she argues that we are so often irrational in making our decisions that our autonomous choices often undercut the achievement of our own goals. Thus in many cases it would advance our goals more effectively if government were to prevent us from acting in accordance with our decisions. Her argument challenges widely held views of moral agency, democratic values and the public/private distinction, and will interest readers in ethics, political philosophy, political theory and philosophy of law.
