“…The results of a review of previous studies show that there are still inconsistencies in the findings of researchers, where some of them state thatperceived organizational support (POS) and organizational commitment (OC) have an impact on increasing organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) (Hanapi et al, 2020;Piotrowski et al, 2020;Riyanto et al, 2021;Safitri & Riyanto, 2020;WG Kim et al, 2020;López-Cabarcos et al, 2020), but some others reported that POS and OC did not have a significant effect on increasing OCB (Jehanzeb, 2020;Morales-Sánchez & Pasamar, 2020;El Shaer, 2019;Junawar et al, 2020). This reason prompted the presentation of the conceptwork engagement (WE) as a solution as well as filling the research gap.WE is believed to be an effective formula in increasing OCB (Odetti et al, 2020;Shams et al, 2020;Tefera & Hunsaker, 2020;Yang et al, 2020). With capital engagement, a lecturer will maintain his energy and enthusiasm so that he is consistently involved in every higher education activity (Gemeda & Lee, 2020;Tisu et al, 2020).…”

This paper reviews the important role ofwork engagement (WE) in bridging the relationship between perceived organizational support (POS) and organizational commitment (OC) on organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) to private university lecturers. WE is one of the positive behaviors in the form of positive engagement cognitively, emotionally, and physically to increase productivity and morale. High WE is the main capital in creating lecturer OCB.Several previous studies have shown that high POS and OC have not consistently resulted in good OCB.With these considerations in mind, this study presents a WE thatbelieved to be able to strengthen POS and OC relations with OCB. It is hoped that this paper will provide a new perspective on the role of WE and other factors that can improve OCB for lecturers at private tertiary institutions. This study uses a quantitative approach and descriptive design. The research respondents were lecturers spread across 7 tertiary institutions in Baubau City. While data collection was carried out using digital instruments in the form of google forms which were distributed and managed to collect a sample of 257 respondents. The results of this study indicate thatWE has a significant positive influence in bridging the relationship between POS and OC towards OCB.This study suggests paying more attention to WE and OC because they have been proven to significantly contribute to increasing OCB in private university lecturers.

We have developed an imitation learning approach for the image-based control of a low-cost low-accuracy robot arm. The image-based control of manipulation arms is still an unsolved problem, at least under challenging conditions such as those here addressed. Many attempts for solutions in the literature are based on machine learning, generally relying on deep neural network architectures. In typical imitation approaches, the deep network learns from a human expert. In our case the network is trained on state/action pairs obtained through a Belief Space Planning algorithm, a stochastic method that requires only a rough tuning, particularly suited to unstructured and dynamic environments. Our approach allows to obtain a lightweight manipulation system that demonstrated its efficiency, robustness and good performance in real-world tests, and that is reproducible in experiments and results, despite its inaccuracy and non-repeatable kinematics. The proposed system performs well on a simple reaching task, requiring limited training on our quite challenging platform. The main contribution of the proposed work lies in the definition and real-world testing of an efficient controller, based on the integration of Belief Space Planning with the imitation learning paradigm, that enables even inaccurate, very low-cost robotic manipulators to be actually controlled and employed in the field.
