This study aims to analyze the effect of the ratio of profitability and solvability (leverage) on the variable stock price, which is mediated (intervening) by the variable dividend policy. Using the financial reports of manufacturing companies in the consumer goods sector, we take profitability data (ROA, ROE, GPM, and NPM), solvability data (DAR, LTDER, and DER), dividend policy (DPR), and stock price (closing price) from 24 companies, which were selected as samples, from 2011 to 2018. Data was analyzed using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method. The results show that profitability, solvability, and dividend policy affect changes in stock prices, respectively. On the other hand, profitability and solvability do not affect dividend policy. The indirect relationship (intervening) is assessed using a single test, resulting in a dividend policy that can intervene in the relationship between profitability and stock prices but cannot mediate the relationship between solvability and stock prices. The implication of this research is to provide knowledge to investors about the importance of knowing the company's financial performance. Companies with good financial performance will easily develop because there are sufficient funds for company operations. By analyzing financial ratios, investors can get signals to decide whether to invest in the company they want.

This paper presents motion planning algorithm that yields to intervening side lane vehicles in a congested traffic flow based on vehicle to vehicle (V2V) communication. Autonomous driving in dense traffic situation requires advanced driving performance in terms of vehicle interaction and risk mitigation. One of the most important functions necessary for congested traffic autonomous driving is to predict the lane change intention of the side lane target vehicle. However, implementing this function by using only environmental sensors has limitations. In this study, V2V communication is used to overcome the limitations and determine the intention of cut-in vehicles. Lane change intention of the intervening side lane vehicle is inferred by its longitudinal speed, steering angle, and turn signal light information received by the on-board-unit (OBU). Once the yield decision is made, the subject vehicle decelerates to generate sufficient clearance for the target vehicle to enter. Validation of the algorithm was conducted with actual autonomous test vehicles.

FLASH is a blind neutral hydrogen (HI) absorption line survey, eventually targeting about 100,000 background radio continuum sources in the entire southern sky using the full 36-antenna of the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP). Our primary goal is to search for associated and intervening HI absorption lines in the intermediate redshift range 0.4 < z < 1.0. The survey aims to understand the evolution of HI gas in galaxies as well as various physical mechanisms in active galactic nuclei, such as accretion and feedback processes. In this poster, we give an overview of the FLASH survey and present the preliminary results from our first 100-hrs of pilot observations. The latest survey data covers 1,000 square degrees and is ideal for validating observation and data processing in the continuous 300MHz-width low frequency ASKAP band (700-1000MHz). One of the crucial objectives of the pilot survey is to establish the analysis methodology that will be applied to upcoming large absorption surveys in the future. We discuss our data quality validation and present some detections of associated/intervening HI absorption lines. These absorption lines allow us to trace the cold gas properties of active and normal galaxies at higher redshifts where the HI emission line is too weak to be detectable.

Epilepsy is a paroxysmal disorder caused by abnormal electrical discharges of the brain. As it is characterized by episodic seizures with intervening normal neurological states, some temporal patterns of seizure attacks can be traced. Sleep and wakefulness patterns are one of several factors influencing seizure occurrence. In this article, physiological and pathological influences of sleep on the seizure phenomenon were reviewed. Understanding this relationship between sleep and epilepsy might lead to better understanding of sleep and epilepsy themselves, thus leading to better diagnosis and treatment of each disease.

In order to protect copyrighted materials, codes may be embedded in the content -to trace the traitors. Traceability (TA) codes, as a kind of such codes, have been extensively studied in the intervening years for use as a piracy deterrent. In this correspondence, we proposed a method to construct a class of traceability codes and gave out some parameters results of such codes.

The purpose of this article is to investigate the causal effects among socio-economic variables, consumer altitudes towards consumerism, the levels of participation in social organization, experience of consumer problems, consumer complaining behavior and the participating intention in consumer movement. The consumer attitudes towards consumerism, the levels of participation in social organization, the consumer complaining behavior exert direct effect on the participating intention in consumer movement. Income, education, age and experience of consumer problems exert indirect effect on the participating intention in consumer movement mediating the intervening variables like the consumer attitudes towards consumerism, the experience of consumer problems, the consumer complaining behavior.

Fe/Cr/Fe trilayers have attracted much interest from both theoretical and experimental aspects due to many novel magnetic properties such as antiferromagnetic coupling, giant magnetoresistance, oscillatory bilinear and biquadratic coupling [1]. In this work, we report that there is an oscillation of magnetic anisotropy with increasing intervening Cr layer thickness in Fe/Cr/Fe trilayers. (omitted)

Social indicator survey can identify the state of society as a whole. When we create a policy, social indicator survey can reflect the public opinion of the region. Social indicator survey is an important measure of social change. Social indicator survey has been conducted in many municipalities (Seoul, Incheon, Busan, Ulsan, Gyeongsangnamdo, etc.). But, the result of social indicator survey analysis is mainly the basic statistical analysis. In this study, we propose a new data mining methodology for effective analysis. We propose a 3-step complex data mining in society indicator survey. 3-step complex data mining uses three data mining method (intervening association rule, clustering, decision tree).

When the marketer wants to execute the sport sponsorship, he(she) has to consider the numerous intervening variables for the effective results. This study illuminates the relationship between these kind of intervening variables of brand origin, familarity, and consume's ethnocentric delinquencies to the sponsorship attitude. The result shows according to the country origin of brand, the consumer's perception of the attitude to the sponsor brand is changed. That is the more positive of the consumer perceive to the brand origin, the more positive to the sponsoring brand attitude. That means the consumer can judge the pro or con of that kind of sponsorship through the mental accounting. But the consumer believes the global sponsorship helps the sport team. The second result shows that the familiarity toward COO(country of brand origin) affects to the sport sponsorship positively. The subjects respond that when the sponsor COO is not so familiar to them, they can discount the sponsor effect of sponsorship. The third result is that there is litter influence of ethnocentrism of sport sponsorship.

We investigated interventions by mother Jeju ponies on Jeju Island, Korea, to determine whether mothers assisted their offspring to attain higher status within the dominance hierarchy. Because dominance rank is important within each gender, we predicted that mothers would be more likely to intervene when their foals were play-fighting with foals of the same gender. A total of 173 play-fighting events were recorded from March to October 1998 and from April to October 1999. Of these, foals were more likely to play-fight with a foal of the same gender as with a foal of the opposite gender (120 versus 53 occurrences, respectively). A mother of one of the foals that were play-fighting intervened in 17 of these interactions. Contrary to the prediction, a mare was more likely to intervene when opposite genders interacted than when the same gender interacted. Analyzing interactions between the opposite genders further, mothers were equally likely to intervene when a daughter was play-fighting with a male foal as when a son was play-fighting with a female foal. Hence, mothers were not more protective of daughters than sons. Mothers that were in the younger age class ($2\sim11$ years old) were as likely to intervene as those in the elder age class ($17\sim25$ years old). However, all foals that were harassed were offspring of mothers in the younger, more subordinate age class. intervention directly maintains the dominance rank of the intervening mother, and may indirectly assist the intervening mother's foal to achieve a higher dominance rank. By discouraging their foals from play-fighting with the opposite genders, dominant mothers may be encouraging their foals to play-fight with the same gender and participate in establishing its own dominance rank.
