Published: June 2024

AbstractIn the creative industry, the relationship between employee empowerment and employee engagement has a very important role. Employees who feel empowered to contribute with creative ideas and participate in the decision-making process will feel more connected to the company's vision and values. The main aim of the research is to analyze the influence of employee empowerment, flexible work arrangements, and career development on employee engagement. The sample in this research consisted of 190 employees who worked in the creative industries in Indonesia who were determined using a convenience sampling approach. Data collection uses a questionnaire instrument which is then distributed online. Data analysis uses the SPSS application by displaying the results of data processing through validity and reliability tests, multiple regression analysis, coefficient of determination, and hypothesis testing. Based on the results of data analysis, it is stated that employee empowerment, flexible work arrangements, and career development have a positive and significant effect on employee engagement. The theoretical implications of the research explain that implementing policies and practices that support employees in terms of work flexibility and career development can significantly increase employee engagement and performance. Meanwhile, practically, organizations in the creative industries need to pay attention to the importance of creating a work environment that supports employee flexibility and career growth. This can be done through implementing policies that allow remote work, flexible work schedules, and support for skills and career development
INAPPROPRIATE RESTRAINT PRACTICES IN AUSTRALIAN TEACHING HOSPITALS
Authors: Irving Kate
Published: June 2024

The use of restraints in contemporary healthcare represents an ethical problem to nurses and nursing. This paper describes a point prevalence study undertaken to examine the patterns of restraint use in an Australian teaching hospital. The objectives were: to clearly define restraint; establish its prevalence; the reasons for its use; and, to describe staffing levels in relation to restraint rates. Of the 256 patients who were observed, 9.4% were restrained. A third of the patients aged 85 years and over were restrained. The results support a previous Australian study that reported restraint
Cancer patients’ sensemaking of conversations with cancer nurses in outpatient clinics
Authors: Hargie Owen , Brataas Hildfrid , Thorsnes Sigrid
Published: June 2024

Objective: Communication is of significant importance to cancer patients however little is known about how they experience and make sense of their interactions with cancer nurses. This study was designed to investigate how and in what ways patients interpret initial consultations with cancer nurses in terms of how they perceive the role of the nurse.
Design: This qualitative study involved ‘sensemaking’ interviews with patients following their first consultation with nurses.
Setting: The study was carried out in two outpatient cancer clinics in hospitals in Norway.
Subjects: The sample consisted of nine cancer outpatients experiencing a range of cancer situations.
Main outcome measures: The main outcomes measure was an understanding of the way in which cancer patients make sense of therole of nurses following initial consultation.
Results: Preconceptions of the role of the nurse were limited, with the nurse perceived as playing a mainly functional, task‑centred, role. Patients’ actual experience broadened their sense of the role of the cancer nurse to encompass a psychosocial supportiverole.
Conclusions: The sensemaking approach used in this study offered a depth of insight into core factors that shaped the patients’ understanding. It is argued this approach has benefits for nursing research. Possible advantages for nursing practice and further research are suggested.
What we learnt ‑ recruiting prenatal mothers to an RCT addressing the prevention of overweight in early childhood?
Authors: Wardle Karen , Murphy Dean , Ireland Lynne , Holbeck Cynthia , Davidson Carol , Wen Li Ming , Rissel Chris
Published: June 2024

Objective: To identify and explore the experiences of recruiting prenatal women into a randomised control trial which involves a family‑focused early intervention program addressing the prevention of overweight and obesity over the first two years of life.
Design: A number of open‑ended brainstorming sessions allowed the research nurses to self reflect on their recruitment experiences. These sessions were used to explore factors that impacted on recruitment.
Setting: Recruitment for the trial took place in the antenatal clinics of two hospitals in south west Sydney (NSW Australia) from March 2007 ‑ March 2008 one of the most socially and economically disadvantaged areas of Sydney.
Main Outcome measures: To gain insight into the issues surrounding recruitment of prenatal women and to identify the main themes that facilitated or impeded recruitment.
Results: Findings suggested that recruitment to a randomised control trial in the prenatal period resulted in particular barriers. Three theme clusters were identified; engaging participants, content of informational material and organisational issues.
Conclusion: Fostering stronger communication between research staff and clinical staff would have enabled easier identification of the target group and having access to the target population at earlier stages of pregnancy would have been beneficial.
Recommendation: Having a rigorous recruitment plan, and evaluating recruitment strategies in future studies of this nature, would be central to understanding why prenatal women involve themselves in research trials. Obtaining the assistance of clinical and administration staff with recruitment strategies would also be strongly recommended.
Places for nurse practitioners to flourish: Examining third sector primary care
Authors: Wilkinson Jill
Published: June 2024

Objective: This paper examines and provides an example of the practice environments most likely to nurture nurse practitioner care delivery models and more fully realise the goals of the government’s Primary Health Care Strategy.
Setting: Non‑government third‑sector primary care organisations flourished in New Zealand during a period of neoliberal reform in the 1990s. Because they tend to serve vulnerable populations on a non‑profit basis, third sector organisations are not typical of owner‑operator general practices, which have a for‑profit business imperative.
Primary argument: Third sector primary care organisations are ideologically aligned to a core set of social justice values. They involve the community in management and governance structures, and the health professionals employed are salaried. High ratios of nurses to doctors are employed, and nurses work at an advanced level of practice with their patients. Decisions about the use of public funds are made with the community’s health needs foremost. Significantly, nurses are able to advance and more fully contribute in ways that may not be so easily achieved amid share‑holding practice owners.
Conclusion: The example of local investment in one third sector primary care provider illustrates that models of care other than the privately owned business model can better serve a high‑needs and vulnerable population. With minimal structured and coordinated workforce development plans nationally, third sector organisations offer fertile ground in which nurse practitioners can flourish.
Recognition of prior learning: Credit transfer for enrolled nurses studying science in the Bachelor of Nursing program
Authors: Pryor Christine
Published: June 2024

Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate the impact of Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL), on academic achievement for enrolled nurses (ENs), who applied for credit transfer for first stage science in the Bachelor of Nursing program (BN).
Design: A survey method was employed using a quantitative and qualitative approach. The design was based on a questionnaire that included three sections: demographic information; a five‑point Likert scale broken into four constructs; and free text open‑ended questions.
Setting: The study was conducted from a regional nursing and rural health unit of a South Australian tertiary education institution.
Main outcome: Main outcomes from the study showed the constructs of Regret, Difficulty, Advantage and Satisfaction of receiving RPL for first stage science, identified some Diploma undergraduates have difficulty in studying second stage science, whereas other Diploma undergraduates are able to grasp the concepts and are satisfied with their achievement.
Results: 44.5% accumulatively of strongly disagree and disagree responses of respondents felt they were unprepared through their science education at TAFE. 33.5% of accumulative responses from respondents of strongly agree and agree identified they were prepared for second stage science through pre‑learned science at TAFE. 15% of respondents were undecided as to whether they were prepared for second stage science in the BN program.
Conclusion: Applying for RPL can have an advantage for an applicant and this study has shown that some ENs entering the BN program were advantaged, while others expressed disadvantage and would have preferred to have received credit RPL in another area of the BN program rather than first stage science.
The predictors and outcome of psychiatric disorders among survivors post-earthquake: survey from Sichuan China
Authors: Liu Dongling , Jiang Xiaolian , Pang Samantha , Li Sijian
Published: June 2024

Objective: The aims of the study were to investigate predictors and outcomes of psychiatric disorders among survivors postearthquake.
Design: Cross-sectional design survey.
Setting: Government-aided communities with temporary shelters.
Subjects: A multistage stratified and cluster sampling strategy was employed to select participants via face-to-face interviews, and a total of 1,297 survivors participated in the research.
Main outcome measure: Psychiatric disorders were measured with self-reporting questionnaire-20 (SRQ-20), and quality of life was measured with medical outcomes study 36-item short form health survey (SF-36) and a series of problems were made to evaluate the demographic characteristics of survivors.
Results: The findings of the present study show that psychiatric morbidity was very prevalent among survivors (76.6%). Negative correlation was found between the total score of SRQ and PCS (rs= -0.525, p<0.001), and MCS(rs= -0.679, p<0.001) by Pearson correlation analysis. The multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that female, aged 60 or older, having financial burden and having >2 chronic diseases were significant risk factors for psychiatric disorder. While married, monthly income > ¥1,500, and with medical insurance were significant protection factors against psychiatric disorders.
Conclusions: The psychiatric morbidity was very prevalent among survivors two years after the earthquake. The survivors with psychiatric disorders tend to have poor quality of life. Appropriate public health and medical interventions should put an emphasis on survivors who are female, aged 60 or older, having financial burden and having >2 chronic diseases because they are at heightened risk for psychiatric disorders.

Authors: Baines Carol , Sykes Pam
Published: June 2024

Objective: To document and describe a contemporary profile of the Australian hyperbaric nursing workforce.
Design: A mixed methods research methodology using a web-based survey questionnaire.
Setting: Members of the Australian Hyperbaric Technicians and Nurses Association.
Main outcome measures: Overview of the current Australian hyperbaric nursing workforce including demographics, education, clinical experience, employment status and workplace health and safety requirements.
Results: A majority of the 49 respondents working in the specialty of hyperbaric medicine were female (87.7%) and aged between 45-54 years (42.9%). All have qualifications relevant to hyperbaric, wound management and/or critical care nursing. A mostly part-time and casual workforce (75.5%) participates in an on call roster between one and five times per fortnight (81.6%). Hyperbaric nurses (95.4%) have been recruited from critical and emergency care departments with many continuing to work shifts in these areas. A high level of workplace health and safety compliance includes an annual medical examination (91.8%) and associated hearing test (77.6%). Personal injuries associated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy are low.
Conclusion: Limited data are available on the characteristics of the hyperbaric nursing workforce in Australia. Results of this survey show the recruitment and retention of female nurses’ in the middle of their career ensures a high level of job suitability. Advanced clinical skills coupled with relevant post graduate tertiary qualifications are necessary. A high level of casual workforce employees ensures the mandatory 18 hour break between compression treatments is achievable. The emphasis on workplace health and safety compliance is paramount with few injuries being reported.
Sporting injuries amongst children in Australia: a review of the literature
Authors: Yu Amanda , Green Janet , Walker Karen
Published: June 2024

Objective: Sports and recreation promotes health benefits to the child’s wellbeing but can also expose him or her to injury risks. Literature that explores sporting injuries amongst children in Australia with discussions about the paediatric nursing role is reviewed.
Setting: Prevalence of sporting injuries within the Australian paediatric population.
Sample: The search utilized medical search terms of ‘Sporting injuries’ ‘Children’ ‘Pediatric/paediatric Nurses’ in health related databases to locate literature published from 2007 until present. Australian based studies were preferable but not exclusive. Relevant sources through hand selection helped to develop a potential relationship between the frequency of sports injuries occurrences and the types of injuries being treated in hospital.
Primary argument: Of the twenty-five papers chosen, nineteen were related to sports injuries while a further thirteen focussed specifically on children involved in sports and recreation. Data concerning children sustaining sports related injuries, particularly in Australia, is scarce and inconsistent with no literature found relating to the role of paediatric nurses.With a particular focus on spinal injuries sustained through sports and recreation, how the paediatric nurse is involved is identified.
Conclusion: Further analysis on sporting injuries in children in Australia will help to gauge its health burden to the country to better understand this contemporary child safety concern.
Fecal calprotectin and endoscopic scores: The cornerstones in clinical practice for evaluating mucosal healing in inflammatory bowel disease
Authors: Costa Marcia Henriques de Magalhães , Sassaki Ligia Yukie , Chebli Júlio Maria Fonseca
Published: June 2024

Managing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is becoming increasingly complex and personalized, considering the advent of new advanced therapies with distinct mechanisms of action. Achieving mucosal healing (MH) is a pivotal therapeutic goal in IBD management and can prevent IBD progression and reduce flares, hospitalization, surgery, intestinal damage, and colorectal cancer. Employing proactive disease and therapy assessment is essential to achieve better control of intestinal inflammation, even if subclinical, to alter the natural course of IBD. Periodic monitoring of fecal calprotectin (FC) levels and interval endoscopic evaluations are cornerstones for evaluating response/remission to advanced therapies targeting IBD, assessing MH, and detecting subclinical recurrence. Here, we comment on the article by Ishida et al Moreover, this editorial aimed to review the role of FC and endoscopic scores in predicting MH in patients with IBD. Furthermore, we intend to present some evidence on the role of these markers in future targets, such as histological and transmural healing. Additional prospective multicenter studies with a stricter MH criterion, standardized endoscopic and histopathological analyses, and virtual chromoscopy, potentially including artificial intelligence and other biomarkers, are desired.
Kajian Penerapan Teknologi Informatika pada Dunia Kesehatan
Authors: Putra Rafi Septiawan
Published: June 2024

The purpose of this research is to study the application of information technology to the world of health. Research methods This research uses qualitative approaches and library methods, both involving collection of library data through reading, recording, and processing research materials. Telenursing results actually make it much easier to access health care for under-serviced populations, like monitoring services at home or individuals with chronic health problems. However, this technology is still not optimally used in Indonesia. After reading the description above, it can be concluded that, in cases where patients are unlikely to obtain health services or nursing directly, either for remote reasons or because they want to save and efficiently save their time during the trip, the telenursing service is one of the options that can be used.
Water Exchange in Coniferous Phytocenoses under the Influence of Climate Change
Authors:   Institute of Biology of Komi Science Centre of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Sen’kina Svetlana N.
Published: June 2024

Woody vegetation and the atmosphere are closely related, which determines the relevance of studying this interaction within the framework of the problem of global climate change and the resilience of terrestrial ecosystems to external influences. For the research region, the Komi Republic, climate warming has been revealed, expressed in increased air temperature in the summer. The warmest year over the years of observation was 2013, when the average air temperature in the summer was 17.2 °C, while the longterm annual average norm was 14.6 °C. The growth and productivity of woody plants in a forest community depend on the amount of moisture in the soil. In the middle subzone of the taiga, moisture reserves are 60–200 mm, so woody plants do not lack it. In this regard, transpiration rates of Scots pine and Siberian spruce needles in different types of forest under fluctuating weather conditions has been studied. The results of the research have shown that at elevated air temperatures, low amounts of precipitation and favourable soil water supply, the transpiration rate in pine increases by 1.5 times, and in spruce by 3 times. This is probably due to the fact that the spruce stomata react especially quickly to changes in external conditions, which is determined by the increased sensitivity of the needles to moisture conditions. It has been established that during the same period there is the closest relationship between the transpiration rate and the air temperature (r = 0.7–0.9). In different types of forest, the transpiration rate in pine varies from 4 to 16 %, in spruce within 5 %. An assessment of changes in the pine and spruce needles transpiration rates in response to changing weather conditions has shown that this process is largely determined by the species membership. Pine is a light-demanding species with a taproot system. Spruce is a shade-tolerant species with a shallow root system.
The Formation of a Track by the Propulsion of a Forestry Machine on the Slope of the Thawing Soil in the Permafrost Zone, Taking into Account the Effect of Solifluction

In the Russian Federation, a significant part of the forest fund territory is located on permafrost. Many regions of the country have large reserves of mature and overmature commercial forests, and a significant part of these reserves are located in hard-to-reach places, not only due to the underdeveloped road network, but also due to the difficult terrain. Currently, the vast majority of timber harvesting in Russia is carried out using modern machine complexes, mainly including wheeled forestry machines of various layouts and purposes (harvesters, forwarders, skidders, etc.). At the same time, the problem of the negative impact on the soil of forestry machines and skidding systems based on them not only remains relevant, but becomes even more acute, since the ecosystems of mountain forests, forests on the slopes of hills, etc. are among the most vulnerable, subject to water and wind erosion. As is known, the track in the soil is formed under the influence of normal load transmitted through the contact spot of the mover, as well as under the influence of the tangential force realized by the mover when moving the machine. When lifting a machine onto a slope, the tangential tractive effort of the propulsion is required than when moving across the plain. Consequently, the intensity of track formation on the slope is higher, all other things being equal. Machine systems are known where, when working on slopes, winches are used to help machines go down and up the slope. Winches can be either separate units or units integrated into the transmission of machines. The research has shown that using winches when lifting the machine onto a slope significantly reduces fuel consumption and transmission loads, which is a consequence of a decrease in the tangential tractive effort required to move the machine, realized by the engine. Then the intensity of track formation on the slope when the machine is working with a winch is less compared to working without a winch.

Published: June 2024

The recycling of wood processing waste generated at pulp and paper and woodworking enterprises by reusing it in obtaining a high-yield semi-finished product for the production of paper and cardboard has been studied. The economic and environmental feasibility of wood waste recovery is beyond doubt. The aim has been to develop technology and modes for recycling wood waste from the production of high-yield pulp (birch sawdust) and woodworking (coniferous and the mix of coniferous and deciduous chips). In the course of the study, high-yield pulp has been obtained from birch sawdust using continuous technology (at Perm Pulp and Paper Company) and batch technology (at most pulp and paper industry enterprises). Cooking of wood chips has been carried out only using batch technology. It is shown that the recycling of birch sawdust to produce a fibrous semi-finished product for use in the production of paper and cardboard solves an important economic problem of the pulp and paper industry, which is the need to reduce the consumption of pulpwood and preserve forest resources. The process of recycling wood waste does not require changes to current technology. This produces high-yield pulp, which in terms of quality is not inferior to a similar semi-finished product made from birch technological chips and meets the enterprise standards. It has been revealed that wood chips from coniferous and deciduous wood from woodworking enterprises can also be used as a raw material for the production of high-yield pulp, but only together with sawdust from birch wood. High-yield pulp from the chips of coniferous and the mix of coniferous and deciduous wood is obtained with increased yield, but with low mechanical strength, since the neutral-sulfite method is intended for the production of a fibrous semi-finished product only from deciduous wood; coniferous wood is not boiled using this method. High-yield pulp with quality indicators corresponding to the enterprise standards from technological chips is produced by the ratios of chips and sawdust of 50:50 and 70:30. The yield of the semi-finished product from the raw materials of all used compositions is high – 75…82 %. Tests of high-yield pulp obtained from birch sawdust have shown that the fibrous semi-finished product can replace 20 % of the MS-5B waste paper mass in production in the production of paper and cardboard compositions.
The Model of Birch-Spruce Plantations Formation in the Conditions of the Russian Plain Southern Taiga

Published: June 2024

The results of 30 years or research on the formation and growth of birch forests from the subcanopy spruce population in the conditions of the Russian Plain southern taiga are presented. The studies have been carried out on 19 permanent sample plots (PSPs). They were laid in regionally representative sorrel-blueberry birch forests aged 15–115 years with high density and productivity. The birch plantations on the PSPs belong to the same natural age series. The majority of spruce trees appeared under the canopy of birch forests up to 40 years old. As the birch trees aged, the age structure of spruce trees changed from even-aged to conditionally even-aged. Based on the study of the dynamics of the number of trees, the vertical structure of stands, the growing stock and the total stem wood stock, the age stages of development of the spruce population in the birch forests up to 120 years old have been determined. They are regeneration, young growth, polewood and maturation. The end of the maturation stage occurs at the birch tree age of 120 years. At the same time, the average spruce tree age in the first and second layers is 90 years. The duration of the stages varies from 10 years (the young growth stage) to 40 years (the regeneration and maturation stages). To determine the time of onset and end of other age stages of the subcanopy spruce population, the studies in birch forests older than 120 years are needed. The work performed has made it possible to propose a model of the joint formation of birch forests and the subcanopy spruce population, in which the main taxation characteristics are given for all elements of the stand: age, number of trees, the sum of the cross-section of the stems, the stock of the growing and dead wood, as well as total productivity. According to the model, by the age of a birch of 120 years, the total productivity of modal plantations will be about 950 m3/ha and the growing stock of the stand will be about 490 m3/ha. The share of spruce wood will be 28 % or about 150 m3/ha. After the birch forest decay, a low-density spruce forest of the 3rd quality class can form in its place.
Reaction Rims on Ilmenite and Chromite: Implications for Volatile Behavior and Crystallization Conditions of Kimberlite Magma
Authors: Fairhurst Lydia , Fedortchouk Yana , Chinn Ingrid , Normandeau Philippe , Powell Michael
Published: June 2024

Significant uncertainty surrounds the crystallization conditions and the composition of kimberlite melts, including the role of volatiles (H2O and CO2) due to their hybrid nature, intense alteration, and volatile loss during emplacement. In this study, we address these uncertainties by investigating the interaction between oxides (ilmenite and chromite) and kimberlite magma. During kimberlite ascent, mantle minerals react with the magma and develop dissolution textures, compositional zoning, and rims of secondary mineral phases in response to crystallization conditions and the composition of kimberlite magma. We examined oxides from several lithologies within the BK1 and AK15 kimberlites of the Orapa cluster in Botswana, where diamonds demonstrate distinct dissolution styles in each lithological unit owing to differences in magma saturation with volatiles. Here we discovered a strong correlation of the reaction products on ilmenite and chromite with the dissolution style of diamonds in the same kimberlite unit. Diamonds with glossy, low-relief surface features indicative of fluid-rich magma occur in the kimberlite units where ilmenite and chromite develop reaction rims of Ti-bearing phases. Diamonds with corrosion sculptures implying a volatile-undersaturated magma occur in kimberlite units with heavily resorbed chromite and ilmenite completely replaced by a MUM (magnesio-ulvöspinel-magnetite)–perovskite symplectite. Furthermore, the composition of ilmenite reaction rims depends on kimberlite lithology, where MUM co-exists with perovskite or its break-down product anatase in the two coherent kimberlite units, or with perovskite and titanite in the massive volcaniclastic unit. We examine how decompression, cooling, degassing, or assimilation of crustal rocks by kimberlite magma could have shifted conditions from perovskite to titanite stability in the volcaniclastic kimberlite unit. We propose perovskite replacement by anatase-calcite pseudomorphs in the top coherent unit, from which diamonds exhibit an overprint of fluid resorption with a melt resorption. Composition of ilmenite reaction rims provides estimates of kimberlite crystallization temperatures of 730–1275 °C and oxygen fugacities of +0.5 to −3.5 relative to the nickel-nickel oxide buffer, which are validated through controlled experiments. Our study shows that preservation of ilmenite, the type of Ti-phase in its reaction rim, the relative rate of chromite dissolution, and compositional re-equilibration with kimberlite can help model the eruption process as well as the style and rate of diamond dissolution.

Analysis Of The Use Of Return On Asset, Return On Equity, And Economic Value Added In Assessing Company Financial Performance
Authors: Nurjanah Yayuk , Prasetyo Disva Margaretha
Published: June 2024

The purpose of this study was to determine the financial performance of PT Unilever Indonesia Tbk., PT Gudang Garam Tbk., and PT Bank Central Asia Tbk. in 2019, 2020 and 2021 using ROA, ROE and EVA analysis. The results of this study indicate that PT Unilever's financial performance in terms of ROA, ROE, and EVA shows unfavorable results. This is because PT Unilever's ROA, ROE, and EVA tend to decrease from year to year. This decline was mainly due to decreasing profits during the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 and PT Unilever has not been able to fully recover from the decline during this pandemic. The overall financial performance of PT Gudang Garam is not good because most of PT Gudang Garam's ROA, ROE, and EVA values ​​show a decline. However, PT Gudang Garam is trying to improve its performance in 2021, one of which is by reducing its capital costs. Then, PT Bank Central Asia's financial performance showed good results because ROA, ROE, and EVA managed to increase in 2021 after experiencing a slight decline in 2020. In addition, PT Bank Central Asia's total equity and total assets also increased from 2019 until 2021 which may indicate that the financial condition of PT Bank Central Asia is in a fairly stable position

The advancement of information technology, telecommunications, and the internet has resulted in the emergence of various internet-based business applications. Bank Central Asia (BCA) is one such institution that leverages internet technology to serve its customers through its mobile application, MBca Mobile. This research investigates whether the variables of satisfaction and usability influence customer loyalty and subsequently generate positive word of mouth among MBca users. This study aims to determine the effect of satisfaction and usability on loyalty and its impact on positive word of mouth among MBca users. A sample of 150 participants was analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results indicate that satisfaction significantly mediates the relationship between usability and loyalty, which in turn has a substantial positive impact on word of mouth. Consequently, all hypotheses in this study are accepted. It is suggested that BCA enhance the MBca service connection to prevent transaction failures by collaborating with telecommunications providers to ensure reliable internet connections. Additionally, improving operator capabilities through training can increase the speed and accuracy of the service.

Published: June 2024

This paper examines drama of reality orchestrated on the heels of the outbreak of a pandemic known as CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19). The disease which erupted in China around December 2019 started killing in hundreds and thousands without any tested drug in sight to quell its furnace except precautionary measures like ‘social distancing’ ‘Hand wash with sanitizer’, ‘wearing of face mask’ and the like. Cases were purposely selected through the affordances of newspapers, recorded newscast, social media applications like WhatsApp, and You-tube. Multimodality as well as Tact Maxim was considered an apt theoretical framework to capture selected instances in the Nigerian situation owing to the exploitation of semiotics and other linguistic nuances involved in the data collection. The critical analysis of the drama revealed that the world had never been the same, and that in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, a new world-order was imminent ; just like it had happened after the historic 1720 , 1820, and 1920 occurrences. The pandemic period was therefore a show of insincerity in governance, ingratitude, display of abject poverty necessitating renewed dedication to salient essentials of life. The religious circle was not spared as adherents became wiser when the hitherto mammoth crowd as a show of affluence and generosity became replaced with defined gathering, The paper concluded on a note that it is time non-realistic and non-productive policies were jettisoned in order to forestall future re-occurrences of the pandemic. These, in the Nigerian situation should take the form of reducing the recurrent expenditure of the legislature, avoiding mono-economy and re-diversifying, redefining the essential and non-essential services, intensifying e-learning/banking, etc, curbing the excesses of law-enforcement agents and civilians alike. These would go a long way to better the lot of the masses, provided sincerity, transparency and accountability become the watch-word of governance.

Trauma and Resilience in Osundare’s City Without People
Authors: Akinpelu David Abiodun
Published: June 2024

The paper examines the representation of trauma in City Without People, the collection of poetry by Nigerian poet-scholar, Niyi Osundare. The critical lens of the study also focuses on how the poet employs poetry as a therapeutic means of working through the trauma engendered by the Hurricane Katrina experience in the United States of America. Assumptions from trauma theory serve as theoretical framework for the study. The research reveals that, contrary to the position held by some trauma theorists that traumatic experiences defy remembrance and are unspeakable, Osundare’s collection shows the possibility of remembering traumatic experiences and articulating them. Also, there is evidence that the postmemory of slavery connects with the collective trauma of the Katrina experience among the Black community. City Without People also demonstrates a quintessential instance of the deployment of expressive writing as scriptotherapy.
