AbstractWe explore the relationships among the geographic ranges of genera, the ranges and positions of their constituent species, and the number of species they contain, considering variation among coeval genera and changes within genera over time. Measuring range size as the maximal distance, or extent, between occurrences within a taxon, we find that the range of the most widespread species is a good predictor of the range of the genus, and that the number of species is a better predictor still. This analysis is complicated by a forced correlation: the range of a genus must be at least as large as that of each of its constituent species. We therefore focus on a second measure of range, the mean squared distance, or dispersion, of occurrences from the geographic centroid, which, by analogy to the analysis of variance, allows the total dispersion of a genus to be compared to the mean within-species dispersion and the dispersion among species centroids. We find that among-species dispersion is the principal determinant of genus dispersion. Within-species dispersion also plays a major role. The role of species richness is relatively small. Our results are not artifacts of temporal variation in the geographic breadth of sampled data. The relationship between changes in genus dispersion and changes in within- and among-species dispersion shows a symmetry, being similar in cases when the genus range is expanding and when it is contracting. We also show that genera with greater dispersion have greater extinction resistance, but that within- and among-species dispersion are not demonstrable predictors of survival once the dispersion of the genus is accounted for. Thus it is the range of the genus, rather than how it is attained, that is most relevant to its fate. Species richness is also a clear predictor of survival, beyond its effects on geographic range.

This research aims to watch the extent of guidance and counseling teacher services in improving student learning achievement shape Islamic morals on students. This research approach is a qualitative research with a descriptive approach. The data source of this research was through the assistance and role of the Guidance and Counseling teacher to 88 students who were sampled. Data collection instruments were carried out by interview and questionnaire. The collected data is then collected, analyzed and interpreted into a whole new concept and also fres. The result of the research is the role of the guidance teacher has included a good classification. But there are still several factors that cause students to experience learning difficulties, for example, factors from within the individual consisting of physiological and psychological factors. Physiological factors are physical conditions and the five senses. While psychological factors, namely talent, interest, intelligence, achievement motivation and cognitive abilities. While the Guidance and Counseling teacher strategy in improving student learning achievement, for example, is correlating between the Guidance and Counseling teacher with parents or homeroom teachers who know the learners' personalities in depth to better know what problems have occurred.

There is a limited understanding of IT's role as a crucial enabler of patient agility and the department's ability to respond to patient's needs and wishes adequately. This study's objective is to contribute to the insights of the validity of the hypothesized relationship between IT resources, practices and capabilities, and hospital departments' knowledge processes and the department's ability to adequately sense and respond to patient needs and wishes, i.e., patient agility. This study conveniently sampled data from 107 clinical hospital departments in the Netherlands and uses structural equation modeling for model assessment. IT ambidexterity positively enhances the development of a digital dynamic capability. Likewise, IT ambidexterity also positively impacts the hospital department's knowledge processes. Both digital dynamic capability and knowledge processes positively influence patient agility. IT ambidexterity promotes taking advantage of IT resources and experiments to reshape patient services and enhance patient agility.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of Microfinance Services and Networking relationship on Micro Small and Medium Enterprises Performance with the mediating role of Social capital. This study was a descriptive survey design. The target population was 584,572 MSMEs in the province, and owner-managers of MSMEs were the unit of analysis and were targeted for information because they are likely to be the decision-makers in these businesses and are actively involved in their day to day operations. 356 MSME owner-managers were sampled. Data were obtained through adapted construct and measured from a five-point Likert scale, and interview schedules were used to collect data from the field. Qualitative data analyzed by using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). The study found that there was a positive effect on MSME performance by Microcredit and Networking with the mediating effect of Social capital.

This paper is focused on the role of spatial and variographic analysis in the phase of sampling design. In particular, when dealing with environmental variables such as airborne dust concentration all over a selected domain, the best approach to catch the spatial structure of the variable itself, implies the full and more detailed coverage of the domain. In this study this goal is achieved by means of about fifty airborne dust concentration field surveys all over a square area 350 mt wide in a quarry plant in the center of Italy. These data, sampled according with a regular pattern, did not allow to catch the spatial structure of the variable itself thus avoiding a satisfactory variographic modelling. To improve the sampling scheme an infilling procedure was performed by adding an increased number of samples. The selection of these further samples, less than 10% of the total amount, was carried out using sequential Gaussian simulations in those zones of the domain in which the highest variability was recorded. The final outcome shown a good result determining a good upgrade in terms of variographic modelling and final estimation at the cost of few further samples.

This study aims to determine the role of mediating work motivation on the effect of compensation on employee morale. This research was conducted at UDAKA Dawan BUMDes. The number of samples used is 37 employees, with a saturated sample method where all population numbers are sampled. Data collection is obtained from questionnaires. Data analysis used in this study is path analysis and sobel test. The results of this study found that compensation has a positive effect on morale, compensation has a positive effect on work motivation, work motivation has a positive effect on morale, and the role of work motivation has a positive effect in mediating the effect of compensation on morale. The management of UDAKA BUMDes Dawan should pay more attention to the division of labor for employees, the convenience of employees in work, and the provision of salaries that are appropriate to the performance of employees with the aim of increasing employee morale. With high morale, the achievement of performance will be better. Keywords: work morale, work motivation, compensation
