This study focused on the effect of store atmosphere (i.e. lighting, color, music, and scent) on the purchase intention of the Principles of Management students at Universitas Klabat and which of the four independent variables was significant and had the strongest effect on the students’ purchase intention. This study was descriptive-correlative and used quantitative data. The number of respondents was 251 consisting of 96 male students and 155 female students. The sampling technique used was convenience sampling, and to collect the data, the researcher used a questionnaire. Based on the techniques of linear regression and multiple regression, the results showed that, simultaneously, lighting, color, music, and scent affected the purchase intention of the students; however, only music and scent had significant effect on the students’ purchase intention. The result also showed that scent had the strongest effect on the students’ purchase intention. Based on the results, it can be concluded that the increase and decrease of the students’ purchase intention do not depend on lighting and color; instead, they depend on music and especially on scent.

Vitex negundo has been known since ancient times as a medicinal plant. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of methanol and ethanol extracts, and ethyl acetate, chloroform and aqueous fractions of Vitex negundo using an in vitro model to test glucose diffusion and to determine the phytochemical profile of the extracts and fractions using 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The chloroform fractions, ethyl acetate-EtOH and ethyl acetate-MeOH gave the highest inhibitory effect on both the diffusion activities in vitro. Retardation of glucose diffusion suggests that negundo has the potential to lower postprandial glucose. Correlation analysis of the 13C NMR profile with retardation activity suggests that compounds containing glycosidic residues may be responsible for the glucose retardation activity. This is the first example where activity has been correlated with specific structural features of compounds from a crude extract using 13C NMR chemical shifts to assist in the identification of active compounds.

This study was designed to determine whether Averroha bilimbi extract can be used as an alternative anticoagulant for manual complete blood count (CBC) in the hematology clinical laboratory instead of Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), the recommended anticoagulant for CBC. Blood from 15 volunteers was extracted and placed in EDTA-anticoagulated tubes and tubes with Averrhoa bilimbi extract. Samples from both tubes were tested for CBC. Using independent t-test the study revealed that there is no difference in the red blood cell (RBC) count, white blood cell (WBC) count, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and a 3-part differential of EDTA anticoagulated blood and blood with Averrhoa bilimbi extract as anticoagulant. The morphology of lymphocytes and monocytes were not affected, however, the granulocytes showed cytoplasmic distortion and vacuolation in the Averrhoa bilimbi extract.

Abstract: Internal factors play an important role in decision making, especially under ethical dilemma conditions. Therefore, we examine the internal factors of individuals such as gender, age, and level of education in making decisions under ethical dilemma circumstances. This study uses a survey by Aluchna and Mikolajczyk and Eweje and Brunon to collect data. 86 undergraduate and 19 postgraduate students are the respondents for this study. Nonparametric chi-square tests are conducted to test the hypotheses. As a result, women are more ethical than men. Age does not affect the attitude when faced with ethical dilemmas. Moreover, there is no difference in perception between age and level of education toward ethical dilemmas. This study contributes for practical field. Human resource can consider which person to recruit to fit a job, and early ethical education should be done in order for the individual to reach the highest ethical stage.

In investing stocks, investors in capital market always contend risks. Generally, the risks intended are unique risk and systematic risk. Unique risk can be diversified by forming stock portfolio. On the other hand, systematic risk cannot be eliminated by doing it. Therefore, this risk is relevant for investors to be considered. Because of this relevancy, variables causing this risk need to be investigated. To fulfill this condition, this study is conducted. This study aims to test the impact of liquidity, debt policy, profitability, and firm size on systematic risk of firm stock. The population in this study is non- financial firms forming the fifty most active firms based on stock trading frequency on Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2011 to 2014. Firm as sample are taken from the population by using stratified random sampling method. Regression model with pooling data is used as data analysis method. The result of this study shows liquidity does not impact on systematic risk, debt policy has a positive impact on systematic risk whereas profitability and firm size have a negative impact on systematic risk.

An agricultural by-product namely millet stalks were examined for their potential as an alternative source of potash for soap production. The alkaline extract was used in the preparation of soap using the traditional method. These materials were ashed and the sample was subjected to hot aqueous extraction. Extract from the crushed samples was characterized by its inorganic elements calcium, sodium, potassium, and magnesium. The resulting soap was subjected to physicochemical test; saponification value, iodine value, acid value, ash content, color, texture and the results were; 74mg/KOH/g, 31.72g/100g, 5.64mg/KOH, 1%, white, hard and rough, respectively. This showed that the white color of soap was a result of bleaching of the oil sample and the hardness of the soap was due to the presence of high concentration of K+ ions in the prepared soap. Also, emulsification test was performed and the result was positive. White soluble precipitate was formed with KCl, NaCl, and NH4Cl solution while with CaCl2, MgCl2, and FeCl3 solution white gelatinous precipitate was formed which gave the insoluble complex with water. This research showed that some agricultural by-products such as millet stalks can be utilized for the traditional soap production.

Presently, Thai higher education institutions are more aware of the continualreducing numbers of higher education admission of Thai students which is lowerthan the provided seats in universities. Hence, the students’ Public Relations andRecruitment Strategies (PRRS) are considered to be the necessary strategies tosolve this difficult situation especially in the new challenges of ASEAN openingcommunity and the 21st century era. Therefore, “A study of university students’PRRS for ASEAN opening community and the 21st century” was conducted. Thepurposes of this research were to 1) study the important channels of PRRS and 2)provide the effective strategies of PRRS in this era. The survey research wasconducted by using the seven main indicators as a tool of research to search thePRRS information on the websites of 27 Thai Autonomous Public Universities(TAPU). The data of each indicator were analyzed in to percentage and orderedthem. The findings show that mostly TAPUs provided the important channels ofPRRS such as online admission application form, electronic posters, Facebook, callcenters, radio, and Youtube. Hence, it was recommended that the Memorandum ofUnderstanding (MoU) strategy should be utilized for this era as well.

The purpose of this study was to compare students’ academic performance between those justified as talented or not talented in the study program that they chose. Thepopulation of the study was the new students of batch 2016. However, not allstudents join the talent test, only 384. The talent test was conducted by aprofessional talent test institution, while the academic achievement was based onthe average GPA for the first and second semesters. The talent test result isclassified into three parts, namely recommended, doubted, and not recommended.Based on the talent test, there were 365 candidate students recommended to takethe study programs that they chose, 17 of those were doubted and only 2 of thosewere not recommended. Based on the talent test, the students were asked todetermine their choice before taking any courses. Most of the students chose theprogram for the first time, some students changed their mind and moved to anotherstudy program within UNAI, and only few students changed their mind and did notenroll in UNAI at all. The study showed that the correlation coefficient betweenthe talent test result and the academic result was low, with a correlation coefficient(r) of 0.125. Based on the ANOVA test, it was found that there is a difference inthe academic achievement between students who were recommended, doubted ornot recommended to take the courses that they chose. If the talent does notsignificantly correlate with the achievement, then it is interesting to study in futurewhat other significant factors, besides the talent, that influence the academicachievement.
