Black–Scholes 50 Years Later: Has the Outperformance of Passive Option Strategies Finally Faded?
Authors: Kumiega Andrew , Sterijevski Greg , Wills Eric
Published: November 2024

Slightly over fifty years ago, the Black–Scholes option pricing model revolutionized investing by enabling a shift from linear to non-linear payoff structures. Myron Scholes later published two papers documenting the performance of passive option strategies that outperformed the underlying index on a risk–return basis. The options market has evolved considerably over the last fifty years from an open outcry trading structure with options being single-listed to a high-frequency computer-based market. This paper re-evaluates the trilogy of foundational studies to determine whether passive-option-enhanced portfolios still produce superior performance in the current high-frequency options market environment.
“Family Companies”—Editorial Synthesis of Special Issue
Authors: Sinnadurai Philip
Published: November 2024

This paper presents an editorial synthesis of the three substantive papers published in this Special Issue. The lens for this synthesis concerns the joint contribution of the three papers in identifying potential bases for explaining variation in Type 2 agency costs of equity in family companies. The papers included in this Special Issue, using data from Portugal and Africa, suggest three bases. These bases are Small-to-Medium Enterprise status, prevalence of third parties to reduce information asymmetry between the principals and agents, and domicile in South Africa (for African family businesses). It follows from the paper using data from Jordan that degree of tax avoidance would be a suitable measure of Type 2 agency costs of equity. Hence, it would be appropriate for future research to investigate whether this metric varies systematically, across family companies, according to these three bases.

Authors: Arı Erkan , Yılmaz Veysel
Published: November 2024

The rapid development of digital software and technologies has resulted in the design of new social networks (SNS). These social network tools have added innovations to existing social media environments and made them user-friendly. Due to the integration of software technologies into all areas of life, social media platforms have become widely used especially by higher education students. Although SNSs such as YouTube and Instagram are primarily associated with entertainment, they now frequently include educational videos and posts. This study investigates the factors affecting higher education students' use of Instagram for educational purposes using a proposed structural model. The study started by developing a research model based on the literature. A data collection tool was designed based on the model and data were collected online through a link. The proposed research model and its relationships were tested using partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM). The results of the analyses revealed that the perceived usefulness of Instagram use increases with content richness, video quality and source credibility. Furthermore, user satisfaction is positively related to perceived usefulness, leading to an increase in Instagram usage intensity.

The development of information and communication technology has brought significant changes in various aspects of life, including in terms of ordering food. The design of a food ordering application at the KAF Chicken outlet is very necessary to reduce the constraints of conventional systems. The problem commonly faced by various culinary businesses is the absence of an automated system to record and manage orders, customer data, and financial reports, which often results in inaccuracy and slows down the process. This study aims to design a mobile web-based food ordering application that can facilitate culinary business management in ordering, payment, and transaction data management. The application uses the spiral method that allows gradual development and uses the Express Js Framework and Mongodb as data management. Application features include menu management, online ordering, and transaction recording. Based on the test results, this system can help control transaction data and manage reports accurately and quickly. The design of this application can also be expected to contribute positively to improving the operational efficiency of the culinary business, especially in managing orders and transaction data.

Authors: Thach Son Le  , Nguyen Thanh Trung
Published: November 2024

Pronunciation plays a significant role in communication, as unclear pronunciation can lead to misunderstandings between speakers. Thus, acquiring a clear accent is essential for comprehending the intended meaning conveyed by the speakers. Given this significance, the present study aimed to examine learners’ perceptions of English pronunciation and identify the pronunciation challenges encountered by Vietnamese EFL students. Additionally, it sought to uncover learners’ preferences regarding pronunciation instruction methods. To collect data for the study, a quantitative approach was employed, utilizing a 5-point Likert scale to gauge students’levels of agreement across the three specified domains of inquiry. The study involved 50 fourthyear EFL students (comprising 29 Kinh and 21 Khmer students) from the College of Southern Khmer Language – Culture – Arts and Humanities at Tra Vinh University. These students are majoring in English education and studying English as a foreign language. The findings revealed that students acknowledged the difficulty of learning pronunciation and strongly supported the instructional methods proposed in the questionnaire. Specifically, Kinh students struggled to recognize spoken words due to various accents, while Khmer learners faced challenges in pronouncing English vowel sounds. Nevertheless, both groups concurred that word stress, sentence stress, and certain final consonant sounds were challenging to articulate. Finally, the recommendations and the study’s limitations are also included.

Published: November 2024

The fungus Neoscytalidium dimidiatum is a pathogen that causes diseases in a variety of plants, with a particular preference for dragon fruit. In the search for safe and effective control of N. dimidiatum diseases in dragon fruit, the focus has been directed towards research of biological controls. This study investigates the Bacillus amyloliquefaciens D19 culture conditions for favorable antifungalactivity against N dimidiatum. The highest antifungal activity was achieved in culture maintained at 45oC with agitation at 150 rpmfor 21 hours in the defined medium comprised of 0.5 g/L MgSO4.7H2O, 3.0 g/L NaH2PO4.2H2O, 3.0 g/L Na2HPO4.12H2O, 10 g/L sucrose, and 10 g/L peptone with initial pH 6.0. Additionally, the antifungal activity of the bacterial culture was found to be stable at temperatures less than 60oC and pH conditions ranging from 7.0 to 9.0. Overall, the findings of this study lay a foundation for future research into the application of biological antagonists in the control of N. dimidiatum diseases in plants.
THE PROBLEM OF PROFESSIONALLY SIGNIFICANT EXPERIENCE IN CONTEMPORARY PSYCHOLOGY
Authors: Mykhalchuk Nataliia , Ivashkevych Eduard , Chala Yuliia
Published: November 2024

It was proved in the article, that among the students of experimental and control groups, before the experimental training, the most important instrumental values were: high demands, cheerfulness, independence, accuracy, education, conscientiousness in the execution of assignments. Unfortunately, such important instrumental values for the future psychologist as sensitivity, tolerance for the opinions of others, the ability to make thoughtful decisions, self-control and others have a rather low level of formation (for example, sensitivity; tolerance of others’ opinions).
According to the results of our research, individual experience is actualized during the formation of the subject, the so-called “going out to meet something”. This is explained by the fact that our self-realization, although important in itself, is optional, an additional product of our desire, that is, in other words, a human calling that inspires a person to perform actions. In this context we’d remark on subjective experience (“awareness”), which is a component of a real dialogue is quite important.
We call another danger from the person’s focus on his/her personality “hidden spontaneity”. This spontaneity is hidden because we want to become spontaneous, we set this as our goal, but then we try to structure this spontaneity. Such a process takes place during encounter groups. However, we point out, the danger is that what worked for one person in one situation may not necessarily work in another situation, so transference should not be applied in every case. But, as a rule, at the moment when a person becomes experienced, then he/she wants to transfer this experience to other subjects. As a result of this, the emergence of authoritarianism on the part of the coach during the group meetings classes is possible.
In the context of the analysis of the experience that we carry out, one can see the efforts to overcome the methodology of simplified determinism. Thus, Humanistic Psychology paradoxically comes close to weakening its own subjective idea. Directly for the results of our research, the key point in our theory was the construction of a universal scale of needs from lower to higher, which differs from the levels of the formation or functioning of needs in representatives of behavioral psychology or known levels of psychoanalysis, in their essence, only an instruction to look for the key to anatomy not from below, but from above. The heuristic nature of the classification and ranking of human needs in the operational-procedural plan is not in doubt, but, nevertheless, objections arise when even any broad normalization of human actualizations enters the limits of the methodological paradigm. It is difficult to say to what extent such regulation is unhumanistic, but it is clear that to a large extent it appears as undemocratic.
PSYCHOLOGICAL TYPES OF PARENTS’ ATTITUDE TOWARDS PUPILS OF SENIOR SCHOOL AGE AS DETERMINANTS OF CHILDREN’S AGGRESSIVENESS (IN A PARADIGM OF ADAPTIVE AND MALADAPTIVE FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS)
Authors: Liashenko Larysa
Published: November 2024

Parents’ orientation towards autonomy, collaboration, cooperation and the desire to build relationships with the child on a democratic basis, as a rule, does not cause manifestations of malignant aggressiveness of children. In terms of content, this educational strategy and the type of parental relationships are revealed in such a way: the parent is interested in the child’s affairs and plans, tries to help, empathizes, trusts him/her, respects and encourages him/her, and takes into account the child’s opinion. Cooperation is a psychologically optimal and socially desirable type of parental attitude towards children.
Our research has shown that the reluctance or inability of parents to establish positive emotional connections with their children largely determines the nature of manifestations of children’s aggressiveness. We have identified indicators of emotional manifestations of parental attitudes towards children: sympathy-antipathy, acceptance-rejection, respect-disdain, rejection and refusal.
In our empirical research we identified some main components of general manifestation of parental love: the interest in our life and the development of the child, the manifestation of responsibility and care, close attention to the child’s interests, problems and attitudes, awareness of his/her uniqueness, unconditional acceptance of him/her as the child is. With a lack of these components in the manifestations of parental attitude towards children, the child begins to consider every request or demand as a duty and show resistance. The role of deprivation of a child’s basic needs, which forms a hostile personality is incapable of establishing trusting relationships, and it has to be emphasized in our further research.
We think, that according to the theories of childhood aggressiveness, the child’s desire to establish himself/herself with the help of a universal instrument of superiority, such as direct aggression, is explained by his/her experience of a feeling of inferiority associated with a deficiency of parental love. According to our empirical research, a child’s psychological discomfort is due to a lack of parental love, and it increases the destructive element in his/her person, leading to the formation of low self-esteem, aggressiveness, and a tendency toward auto-aggression. Rejection is the most unfavorable, socially and psychologically unacceptable type of parental attitude, indicative according to the development of destructive manifestations of aggressiveness in the period of childhood for senior pupils.
ОСОБИСТІСНЕ СПРИЙНЯТТЯ НОРМАТИВНИХ КРИЗ ІЗ ПОЗИЦІЙ ДИТИНИ І ДОРОСЛОГО В НЕНОРМАТИВНИХ ЖИТТЄВИХ УМОВАХ

Published: November 2024

The article discusses the concept of «crisis» and its main types: normative (age) and non-normative (life). It is substantiated that in the conditions of war, all crises, and especially the crises of the immature personality of a schoolchild, acquire new forms of expression, experience and comprehension.
The purpose of the study is a brief theoretical analysis of the psychological aspects of the concept of «crisis» and an empirical study of the images of a first-grader and a teenager who are experiencing age-related crises in the minds of both schoolchildren themselves and significant adults (parents and teachers) in the time dimensions of the present and retrospective («before the war»).
A semantic differential adapted in Ukraine with 12 dichotomous scales, which include 24 adjectives-antonyms, is used. On the basis of voluntary and informed consent using specially designed google forms, 216 people were involved in the study: 40 teachers (primary and secondary school teachers), 106 parents (parents of students of different ages), 33 first-graders (6-7 years old) and 37 adolescents (12-16 years old).
Based on the results of the empirical study, it is concluded that: first-graders perceive themselves to a much greater extent as more «good» and «problem-free» compared to adults’ ideas about them; adolescents at a statistically significant level perceive themselves as more «powerless», but at the same time more «big» compared to parents and teachers; first-graders rate themselves as more «good», «powerful», «energetic» and «problem-free» compared to teenagers’ self-esteem on similar scales; According to adults, modern adolescents in general are significantly more «indifferent» compared to first-graders; and when comparing the images of a typical first-grader in the conditions of war and in the pre-war period, as well as the corresponding images of a typical teenager, no statistically significant differences between the assessments of adults were found.
The carried out research outlines the prospects for further study and interpretation of both the personal self-perception of schoolchildren who are experiencing certain normative and non-normative crises, and the corresponding perception of children by significant adults – parents and teachers

The article presents the experience of empirical development of the problem of personal determination of the professional development of future doctors in the conditions of their educational and professional training in a higher medical institution of education.
According to the results of the empirical study, it was found that according to the degree of manifestation of the structural components of professional formation «goals» and «self-concept», as well as the level of manifestation of the personal characteristics «self-control», «affection» and «expressiveness» at the level of a pronounced trend, the share of higher medical education graduates with a high level of their severity exceeds the share of future doctors with a low level of their severity.
The determining nature of the impact of personal characteristics of future doctors on the degree of development of the structural components of their professional formation has been empirically confirmed. It is shown that the basis of the development of such a structural component of the professional formation of future doctors as «goals» is a complex of their personal characteristics – «self-control», «emotional stability» and «commitment». It has been confirmed that the development of such a structural component of the professional development of future doctors as «resources» is determined by a high degree of expressiveness of the personal characteristic «expressiveness», and the structural component of professional development «I-concept» is determined by a high degree of expressiveness of the personal characteristics «commitment», «self-control» and «emotional stability».

If 𝑇𝑚∶ 𝐽 → 𝐸 is a bounded linear operator from a 𝐽𝐵∗-algebra (respectively, a 𝐶∗-algebra) to a 𝐽𝐵∗-triple and ℎ𝑚 denotes the element 𝑇𝑚∗∗(1), then 𝑇𝑚 is orthogonality preserving, if and only if, 𝑇𝑚 preserves zero-triple-products, if and only if, there exists a Jordan ∗-homomorphism 𝑆𝑚∶ 𝐽 → 𝐸2∗∗(𝑟(ℎ𝑚)) such that 𝑆𝑚(𝑥) and ℎ𝑚 operator commute and 𝑇𝑚(𝑥)= ℎ𝑚•𝑟(ℎ𝑚)𝑆𝑚(𝑥), for every 𝑥 ∈ 𝐽, where 𝑟(ℎ𝑚) is the range tripotent of ℎ𝑚,𝐸2∗∗(𝑟(ℎ𝑚)) is the Peirce-2 subspace associated to 𝑟(ℎ𝑚) and •𝑟(ℎ𝑚) is the natural product making 𝐸2∗∗(𝑟(ℎ𝑚)) a 𝐽𝐵∗-algebra. This characterization culminates the description of all orthogonality preserving operators between 𝐶∗-algebras and 𝐽𝐵∗-algebras and show a widegeneralizations.
Determinants of Financial Literacy of Adolescents in India and its Impact on their Decision-Making
Authors: Chowdhury Zaara
Published: November 2024

Financial literacy is an essential causational factor in the decision-making abilities among adolescents in India. The relationship between financial literacy and effectual decision-making is growing substantially, particularly in a developing country with a noticeable disparity of financial and economic knowledge access. With the liberalisation of the global economy and the contribution from India, the dissections of the factors affecting financial literacy become necessary. Income inequality, access to education and the rise of financial technological companies are such dominant determinants. This research paper investigates these determinants, emphasising the requirement of targeted initiatives to amplify the knowledge and skills about financial tools and services amongst youth and foster informed decision-making.

Published: November 2024

The study investigates the impact that Artificial Intelligence can have on education. This paper examines the current education landscape, the prospects of AI, and the potential struggles that can arise. Apart from that, this paper proposes potential solutions to some struggles that are discussed. This was done by using research design and analysis techniques. Through these methods, we were able to conclude that AI can improve education to a certain extent. It cannot surpass the human connection between individuals in a classroom setting. The mentorship, bond, and experiences shared cannot be replaced with AI. In the study, we further explore the irreplaceable role of teachers in education. Due to the idea of hope from example, personal connection, and mentorship, AI won’t be able to duplicate this. The article goes more in-depth on the crucial role that all these play in students. Not only that, but we discuss the major role that life lessons shared by teachers to students can play them both the short and long-term.

The Problematic of Divination and Witchcraft Vis-à-vis Certitude and Skepticism in African Philosophy
Authors: FONKA, PHD REMI PROSPERO
Published: November 2024

Generally, trending deliberations on divination and witchcraft cut across several domains in African Philosophy. Conceptually, however, it remains a jigsaw puzzle and problematic vis-à-vis certitude and skepticism in relation to truth claims. The reality of these concepts in traditional African societies is perennial; with tendencies in certain quarters being to dismiss charges connected to them as disprovable allegations, neither improving nor changing common beliefs and adherence to them. Circumstantially, isolated instances apropos divination and witchcraft go beyond metaphysical realms, elucidating tangible and intangible effects of this craft and attacks; despite the fact that it is wrapped in mystery. Notwithstanding, some proof of its existence can be ascertained; yet, the overriding challenge of certitude and sceptical rudiments remain an epistemological problem. Obviously, in citing instances or dimensions of divination and witchcraft in African societies, with some real and pernicious traceable effects on the physical faculties of victims and observers, this paper explores the philosophical import; taxing possible amelioration of tenets of belief and truth warranting certainty while evading skepticism. As a supernatural source of knowledge, divination and witchcraft are inseparable epistemological apprehensions. Implicitly, African epistemology as founded on defined basic tenets, endorsed concepts like knowledge; truth, validity, and rationality are inevitable. Hence, the problematic of divination and witchcraft is pertinent vis-a-vis certitude and Skepticism; it is challenging by embracing varied forms of knowledge: perceptual knowledge, common sense knowledge, advanced age knowledge, inferential knowledge, mystical knowledge, oral tradition, and holistic knowledge. This paper consents to an extent with some truth and belief claims of these practices; but raise objections apropos certitude and scepticism in epistemological spheres of influence, engaging some systematic scientific fine-tuning.
Munawir dan Isu Mawarith: Sebuah Kajian Linguistik Pada Al-Nisā Ayat 11
Authors: Saidi Ali Akbar Bin Sutan , Hussin Haziyah , Fakhrurrazi Ahmad , Ahmad Mohd. Nazri
Published: November 2024

The law of inheritance is a study that has been stipulated in the Qur'an in detail. This study examines how Munawir Syadali thinks about the division of inheritance and the factors behind the emergence of this thought. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature study type. The data collection method is document analysis and uses content analysis techniques. The results of this study indicate that H. Munawir Sjadzali's thoughts on verse 11 of Surah An-Nisa' are related to the law of inheritance division, namely to equalize the division of inheritance between sons and daughters. Analysis of Munawir's biography, thoughts, and interpretation methods shows his hermeneutic approach, emphasizing the spirit of justice behind the text of the Qur'an compared to mere literal interpretation. This approach, which takes into account the current social and cultural context, differs from traditional interpretations that adhere to the 2:1 ratio stated in the verse. Several factors have shaped Munawir's views, including his educational background, partnership experience, and commitment to Islamic reform. He prioritizes freedom of thought and contextualization of Islamic teachings, so that they are relevant in the modern world. Although his approach is provocative, he conveys to broader and deeper discussions about the interpretation of the Qur'an and the law of mawarith.
Uji Keandalan Teori Empiris Dalam Memprediksi Laju Sedimentasi Waduk (Studi Kasus Sedimentasi Waduk Salomekko, Sulawesi Selatan)
Authors: Wahyudi Wahyudi , Wulandari Dyah Ari , Suripin Suripin
Published: November 2024

Bendungan merupakan infrastruktur sumber daya air yang berfungsi membendung aliran air sungai untuk dialirkan secara teratur guna memenuhi berbagai kebutuhan air untuk pertanian, air minum, pembangkit listrik tenaga air dan konservasi. Salah satu faktor yang menentukan dalam perencanaan bendungan adalah adanya volume sedimen yang akan tertampung di waduk dalam kurun waktu umur waduk, dimana elevasi bangunan pengambilan akan ditempatkan di atas elevasi kumulasi volume sedimen di waduk, atau yang dikenal dengan tanpungan mati (dead storage). Permasalahan yang terjadi pada bendungan yang telah dibangun di Indonesia adalah terjadi gap yang besar antara laju sedimentasi waduk rencana dengan realisasi hasil observasi yang dilakukan dengan pengukuran batimetri waduk. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk menguji keandalan metode empiris USLE yang digunakan secara luas untuk perencanaan laju sedimentasi waduk di Indonesia, terhadap realisasi sedimen yang mengendap di waduk. Penelitian diadakan di bendungan Salomekko, yaitu suatu bendungan urugan yang terletak di Propinsi Sulawesi Selatan dengan luas DTA 12,92 Km2 dan mulai beroperasi  sejak ahun 1998. Hasil uji keandalan laju sedimentasi waduk teoritis terhadap hasil observasi menunjukkan nilai yang rendah, yaitu sebesar 41,92%. Kondisi tersebut mengakibatkan rencana umur operasi waduk berdasarkan faktor sedimentasi tidak akan tercapai.  Berdasarkan hasil penelitian ini disimpulkan bahwa rumus empiris USLE perlu dilakukan modifikasi pada rumus faktor kemiringan lereng (LS) yang sesuai dengan kondisi kepulauan Indonesia yang berkontur terjal, sementara rumus empiris USLE dibuat dengan sampel Daerah Tangkapan Air yang landai.

Analisis Tingkat Pemahaman Nazhir Tentang Regulasi Wakaf Uang
Authors: Muchtar Beni , Widana Gusti Oka
Published: November 2024

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis tingkat pemahaman nazhir terkait regulasi wakaf uang di Indonesia dengan fokus pada Peraturan Badan Wakaf Indonesia Nomor 1 Tahun 2020. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah pendekatan kualitatif dengan studi kasus tunggal. Teknik pengumpulan data melibatkan wawancara dengan tujuh informan yang merupakan nazhir dari lembaga wakaf di Indonesia. Wawancara dilakukan untuk memperoleh pemahaman yang mendalam dengan menggunakan pedoman wawancara terkait regulasi wakaf uang. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tingkat pemahaman nazhir terhadap regulasi wakaf uang di Indonesia secara umum sudah baik. Namun, ada beberapa faktor yang mempengaruhi tingkat pemahaman nazhir yang perlu diperhatikan. Faktor-faktor tersebut antara lain informasi yang kurang memadai tentang regulasi wakaf uang, kurangnya kesadaran akan pentingnya pemahaman yang mendalam tentang prinsip-prinsip Syariah dalam pengelolaan wakaf uang, dan perbedaan penafsiran regulasi wakaf uang yang dapat mempengaruhi pemahaman nazhir. Implikasi pemahaman nazhir terhadap implementasi regulasi wakaf uang di Indonesia cukup signifikan. Pemahaman yang baik akan memperkuat pengelolaan wakaf uang yang transparan, akuntabel, dan sesuai dengan prinsip syariah. Lebih lanjut, penerapan regulasi wakaf uang di Indonesia telah sesuai dengan ketentuan yang telah ditetapkan, khususnya melalui Peraturan Badan Wakaf Indonesia Nomor 1 Tahun 2020. Penggunaan mata uang rupiah Indonesia dan penerbitan sertifikat wakaf uang sesuai dengan besaran iuran wakaf juga mencerminkan komitmen untuk menjaga kepatuhan dan transparansi dalam pengelolaan dana wakaf. Temuan penelitian memberikan pemahaman yang lebih mendalam tentang tingkat pemahaman nazhir terhadap regulasi wakaf uang di Indonesia dan implikasinya terhadap pengelolaan wakaf yang efektif. Rekomendasi dapat diberikan kepada lembaga wakaf untuk meningkatkan pemahaman nazhir melalui edukasi yang lebih intensif, peningkatan pertukaran informasi, dan peran aktif dalam mempromosikan pemahaman yang mendalam tentang prinsip-prinsip syariah dalam pengelolaan wakaf uang.

Globally, race and social cohesion in urban areas have received significant research focus.However, it may appear that scholars have not paid adequate attention to the role of race as a facilitator or barrier to social cohesion in rural areas. Thus, the aim of the study was to explore the role of race as a facilitator of, or barrier to, social cohesion in two South African rural communities, namely, Lambert’s Bay, Western Cape, and Philippolis, Free State Province. The study uses some of the tenets of critical race theory to interrogate the issues of race in South African rural communities. A qualitative research design was utilised to gather in-depth knowledge of the participants’ views. Nineteen participants participated in the face-to-face interviews conducted with the stakeholders and parents of both communities under study. The data was analysed thematically and five themes were identified, presented and discussed in the results: (1) Experiences of other racialised groups, (2) Experiences of immigrants, (3) Race as a factor influencing cohesion, (4) Experiences of racial discrimination, and (5) Fear of marginalisation and exclusion. Additionally, the findings highlighted physical separation and segregation between races as barriers to race relations in the communities. The study highlights that segregated communities limit interracial interactions, and rather foster intolerance, which in turn fuels racism. As a result, these factors have negative consequences on social cohesion in South African communities.

O ano de 2020 foi marcado pela disseminação do vírus da COVID-19 pelo mundo, com início registrado em Wuham-China, rapidamente se alastrou por diversos países e provocou um estado de temor na população. Junto ao vírus, vieram também as medidas de restrição de circulação, com impacto direto na economia mundial, especialmente nos setores em que é necessário manter relações presenciais. Todos esses fatores somados trouxeram à tona outro problema, que é citado por órgão públicos como a quarta onda da pandemia: os impactos da pandemia sobre a saúde mental. Diversos fatores são apontados como causa, entre eles estão o medo do adoecimento, o adoecimento em si, a perda de pessoas próximas, a solidão do isolamento, o medo de perder sua fonte de renda, o medo de perder o emprego, mudanças no padrão de sono, e outras. Por isso, o estudo em questão objetivou a análise dos impactos da pandemia de COVID-19 sobre a saúde mental da população no mundo após o fim das medidas de circulação. Foram analisados artigos publicados em revistas indexados a plataforma PubMed, em que foram considerados importantes para a pesquisa apenas artigos que analisaram as repercussões do pós-pandemia. Os resultados encontrados demonstram que a pandemia afetou a população em diversos âmbitos, como na prática de atividades físicas, o padrão de sono, o aumento dos níveis de estresse, tristeza e ansiedade. Além disso, também mostraram que as populações masculina e feminina foram afetadas de formas diferentes. Por isso, os impactos da pandemia devem se reverberar durante anos ou décadas na população mundial, levantando questionamentos de como podem ser mitigados por meio da implantação de políticas públicas e como essas políticas devem ser aplicadas em cada contexto.
