Contemporary Challenges And Regulatory Improvements Regarding “Temporary Passengers” On Ro-Ro Ships: A Case Study From South Korea, Junghwan Choi, Sangseop Lim

Journal of Marine Science and Technology–Taiwan

The coastal shipping industry plays a crucial role in Korea’s industrial development by transporting essential goods for citizens and bulk shipments that are the backbone of national key industries from 28 trade ports and 22 coastal ports nationwide to inhabited islands. Since the revision of the Ship Safety Act in 2007, cargo truck drivers have been boarding the Ro-Ro (Roll-on, Roll-off) cargo ships along with the cargo as temporary passengers. However, persistent concerns have been raised about the human and cargo safety aspects of this practice in coastal shipping. This study aims to examine these issues and propose improvements to …

Identifying Youth Appeals In Alcohol Alternative Social Media Content Through Framing, Melina Oneal

West Chester University Master’s Theses

Proposed regulations for alcohol advertising prevent beverage companies from targeting people under the legal drinking age. However, similar regulations for alcohol alternative beverages are less explored, which could allow alcohol alternative products to create awareness for alcoholic beverages among youth. Alcohol alternatives beverages, including no-alcohol and low-alcohol products, are increasing in popularity and can function as compliments to alcoholic products to decrease the total alcohol volume consumed or as substitutes for alcoholic products. Framing theory can be operationalized through the Content Appealing to Youth Index, an index of content elements found in research literature to be appealing to youth, to …

Essays On The Dynamics Of Subnational Public Finance In Indonesia, Much Rosidi

Theses and Dissertations--Public Policy and Administration

This dissertation comprises three essays that collectively explore the intricacies of subnational public finance in Indonesia: vehicle tax amnesty, property tax competition, and corruption. The research aims to understand the dynamics shaping fiscal policies at the subnational level.

In the first essay, I examine vehicle tax amnesty programs in Indonesia that have been very popular in dealing with high delinquency rates. From 2008 to 2020, provincial amnesties occurred every 2.5 years on average. Using the variation in the timing of the province’s amnesty adoptions, I estimate the effect of vehicle tax amnesty on vehicle tax revenue using difference-in-differences. The short-run …

We present a vision for the field and emphasize the potential impact of this paper. We hope to enliven debates regarding context, underpinning philosophies, and methods, thus fostering a greater theoretical and practical reconsideration of SEB. The impact of this paper is significant, as it leads to a fundamental rethinking of SEB and related research, profoundly influencing the field. To do so, this paper has brought together 10 international scholars to foster an interdisciplinary approach regarding …

Towards A More Engaged Democracy: Using Statistical Methods To Detect Election Fraud In The 2022 Philippine National Elections, Juan Miguel Cardaño, Bryan Patrick Mande, Seth William Tionko, Aldrich Ellis C. Asuncion, Jeric C. Briones

Mathematics Faculty Publications

This paper aims to show how citizens can further participate in the elections, aside from just voting. Given the accusations of fraud, this study demonstrates how existing election fraud detection methods can be used in the 2022 Philippine National Elections (PNE) context. Specifically, histograms known as 2D vote turnout distributions were first utilized to model the frequency of the winner's percentage of votes based on the voter turnout in each electoral unit, with key parameters introduced to detect fraud. Vote turnout distributions were then simulated using parametric models involving the aforementioned fraud parameters, with the goal of replicating the actual …
