Occupational Status and Earnings Inequality: Evidence from PIHS 2001-02 and PSLM 2004-05
Authors: Sajjad Akhtar  , Maqsood Sadiq
Published: March 2024

Wage/earnings inequalities are one source of overall inequality in a country. The former inequalities in turn are closely linked with differential occupational status either defined in a contractual or productive/skill sense. Using the Pakistan Standard Classification of Occupations [PSCO (1994)], this paper estimates Gini coefficients for three types (all types, employee, selfemployed) of individuals/earners by occupational status from the Pakistan Integrated Household Survey (PIHS) 2001-02 and Pakistan Social and Living Standards Measurement Survey (PSLM) 2004-05. Long-term trends in earnings inequality from 1992-93 to 2004-05 are documented with the benchmark estimates in the Ahmad (2002) study, while the short-term trends are measured from 2001-02 to 2004-05 for self-employed and paid employee. The long- as well as the short-term trends indicate rising earnings disparities within each occupational category. Over the longer period, these disparities have risen in the range of 50 to 100 percent. Shifts across occupation and across employment status indicate doubling of the share of Shop and Market Sales and Services Workers and the transition towards becoming self-employed. A few tentative explanations for the observed increasing occupational inequalities at the individual level are: (a) Availability of credit and improved efficiency of capital market may have relaxed capital constraints of former employees and enabled them to transit as self-employed. Right-sizing and down-sizing in public organisations may also have pushed the previous employees into utilising the ‘golden handshake’ packages towards self-employment. Assuming that returns on capital (internal or borrowed) are higher and financial contracts are more lucrative than wage contracts, the situation can lead to wider disparities. (b) At the paid employee level, the fall in the share of workers in elementary occupations improved the wage contracts of those still remaining in this occupation, and thereby increased the income/earnings inequality within this category. (c) Premium on skills, education, experience, and talent, in spite of the entry of a large number of individuals in the Service, Shop and Market Sales Workers category, has widened the inequalities within this category.

Published: March 2024

The mango tree (Mangifera indica) plays an important role for Burkina Faso people. This importance is due to its consumption, its pharmaceutical properties and its shade. However, all this importance is limited to the fleshy parts, leaves, bark and roots, whereas the mango tree's kernels are full of potential that can be exploited, but remain little known. Two mango varieties (Amélie and Kent) were sampled at the Bobo-Dioulasso fruit and vegetable market from Orodara. The fat content and physico-chemical parameters of the mangoes were determined using conventional methods. The results obtained show that the oil's biochemical composition gives it its full importance. This oil meets most of the standards set by the Codex Alimentarius for virgin oils. Mango kernels do indeed contain a fat content of between 3.039 and 6.486%. For moisture content, we found 56.095% and 56.070%, which already exceeds half the kernel's constitutional weight. In terms of chemical parameters, the highest acid value was 2.664 mg KOH/g, compared with 4.0 mg KOH/g as the maximum limit of the Codex Alimentarius standard. The peroxide value was equal to 9.523 mEqO₂/kg against 10 mEqO₂/kg as the maximum limit of the standard. We have a good concentration of saturated fatty acids at least 47% for the lowest concentration and 24% of unsaturated fatty acids for the lowest concentration. In view of these results, mango kernels should be valorized in order to add value to mango waste, with a view to use in cosmetics or medicine, as well as to depollute the environment.

Authors: Hidayah Astika Nurul , Attamimi Zeehan Fuad , Mukaromah Safitri , Hapsari Ira
Published: March 2024

The wakalah agreement that appears in financing schemes in Islamic banks becomes a series with the murabahah agreement. This series of contracts then appears in financing in the form of a murabahah bil wakalah contract. The specific purpose of this research is to find out and analyze the juridical basis of the murabahah bil wakalah contract in positive law and Islamic Law in Indonesia. This research is categorized as legal research with a normative juridical method. The normative juridical approach used is the statute approach. The data collection method in this research uses cross methods, namely literature study, observation and interviews, according to the types and sources of data needed. Until now, there are no rules governing murabahah bil wakalah as a unit in Islamic bank financing products, both rules in positive law and Islamic law in Fatwa DSN MUI. Therefore, the juridical basis for murabahah bil wakalah financing comes from the juridical basis for each murabahah contract and wakalah contract, whether from the Law, Regulations of the Financial Services Authority of the Republic of Indonesia, or other laws and regulations, as well as Fatwa DSN MUI.

Published: March 2024

One of the goals of the Basic Agrarian Law (Undang-Undang Pokok Agraria, UUPA) is to provide legal certainty for all individuals and to facilitate the functioning of the earth, water, and space, as well as natural resources. In reality, however, the law has not yet provided legal certainty over land in the case of double certificates, as stated in Supreme Court Decision No. 976 K/PDT of 2015. The problem posed by this study is how and what the obstacles are for prevent the development of duplicate certificates. This is normative legal research employing secondary data, the statute approach, and the conceptual approach. To prevent the occurrence of double certificates, it is necessary to implement a computerization/digitization program for land registration maps to reduce error by humans, acquire data on land parcels that have certificates, make plotting efforts utilizing GPS (Global Positioning System) technology, restrict the land registration process and administration pertaining to village land, and implement blockchain technology in land administration. Meanwhile, the public's lack of interest in registering their land through the Comprehensive Systematic Land Registration (Pendaftaran Tanah Sistematis Lengkap, PTSL) scheme, procedural errors in the land assessment procedure, a negative land publication system in which the data presented is not necessarily valid, and the state's inability to guarantee the accuracy of the data presented are impediments to these efforts. Moreover, the present agrarian law is a colonialist relic that is not in the community's best interests.

Learning motivation and critical thinking skills in studying history, especially Islamic history, have received less attention. Even though this is one of the indicators in realizing superior students who are faithful, intelligent, and skilled. The teacher's efforts in using media in PAI learning are also not optimal. The media used by the teacher is less effective because the media is still conventional. This is very challenging where learning media is an aspect of students that plays a major role in understanding the material. The historical material for the growth of knowledge during the Abbasid dynasty is one of the most important PAI materials for students to learn. During the Abbasid dynasty, Islam reached its limits in several fields, one of which was science. The importance of Islamic history material being studied by students made researchers implement learning media in the form of quartet cards (quartet card game). The method used in implementing the media consists of several stages, namely: 1) observation, 2) implementation of activities including: presentation of material and assistance to students, and (3) stages of activity evaluation.

Increasing Reading Interest Among Tebel Village Children Through the Micro Library at Riverbanks
Authors: Ambarwati Rita
Published: March 2024

Technology has become an essential thing in the life of every human being, where technology plays a role in supporting all daily activities. This condition impacts children in their infancy or who are sitting in school. The utilization of information technology is seen as not optimal because they prefer to play games and social media rather than explore new knowledge and information, which is very necessary for their educational process. The explanation of the problems above is our reason for holding a literacy program in Tebel Village with children as the primary target. The children who live around the village tend to choose to play with their gadgets rather than read books. Lack of supervision from parents and the influence of the playing environment are some of the contributing factors. The activities increase interest in reading among children through a micro-library program located on the riverbank of Tebel Village. The results of this study were quite successful because more or fewer children had read books. At least, they were a little distracted from the influence of gadgets that had become a part of children’s lives at this time.

This research focused on gender discrepancies regarding students’ opinions about distance education (DE). Data was gathered from Emirati, Portuguese, and Ukrainian university students through an online survey during the first term of the 2020/21 academic year before the war in Ukraine. A qualitative content analysis was used to understand gender discrepancies among the participants. Results show that greater gender discrepancies occurred in the categories of overall opinions and usefulness of DE. Men found DE more helpful and had a more positive opinion about DE overall. The discrepancies between males and females were smaller in several other categories, such as distractions and time management issues. Interestingly, the comments made by men and women focused on different aspects of these categories.

As future leaders, millennials are invariably expected to adopt sustainable behavior (SB) and contribute to achieving the 2030 sustainable development goals. The bulk of existing research on SB and young people have applied a west-centric lens that are not adequately comparative in nature. By adopting the dual approaches of quantitative study and planned behavior theory, this study therefore intended to compare two Asian countries’ Malaysia and China–millennials’ input on SB and to examine the moderating role of social media usage with regards to such behavior. An online questionnaire was administered to 419 respondents from Malaysia and 416 respondents from China. The data were analyzed using the partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM). PLS-SEM results indicated that the direct effects between the variables, which included the impact of sustainable knowledge and interpersonal influence on attitude toward sustainability (ATS); the impact of ATS on sustainable intention (SI); and the impact of SI on SB in both models (Malaysia and China) were found to be significant with only a slight difference in the path coefficients between the two models. Interestingly, PLS-SEM results also discovered no moderating effect of social media usage in both Malaysia and China. The result of the study is helpful for policymakers in both countries to use as reference when focusing on vital elements, such as sustainability knowledge to promote SB among their respective millennials.

Authors: SIMÕES Caroline Falzoni , MOSEGUI Gabriela Gonzalez , GUILARDUCCI Carla Valéria
Published: March 2024

Objetivo: O presente estudo tem como objetivo descrever os Problemas Farmacoterapêuticos (PF) e Intervenções Farmacêuticas (IF), bem como analisar as relações entre o número de intervenções farmacêuticas e variáveis relacionadas ao paciente, a fim de explorar a contribuição do serviço farmacêutico no cuidado em terapia intensiva. Método: Trata-se de um estudo analítico-descritivo, retrospectivo, com dados coletados, entre agosto e dezembro de 2021, em formulário de intervenções farmacêuticas, preenchidos pelos residentes durante os rounds multidisciplinares na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Adulto (UTI) de um hospital de grande porte do município do Rio de Janeiro. Além da análise das características da amostra, foram descritos os problemas farmacoterapêuticos, intervenções farmacêuticas, aceitabilidade da equipe, direcionamento das intervenções e a análise da correlação entre o número de intervenções farmacêuticas e variáveis como sexo, idade, os motivos de internação na UTI e desfecho clínico. Resultados: Foram analisados formulários de 116 pacientes. A idade média aproximada dos participantes foi de 62 anos, sendo 56% do sexo feminino. A maioria (85,3%) apresentava pelo menos uma comorbidade. Foram realizadas 345 intervenções farmacêuticas relacionadas a problemas farmacoterapêuticos previamente identificados, direcionadas à equipe multidisciplinar, das quais 93,1% foram aceitas. A intervenção mais frequente foi a “adequação da taxa de infusão prescrita” (135/39,4%). Foi encontrada significância estatística entre a quantidade de intervenções na farmacoterapia de pacientes que ingressaram na UTI no pós-operatório e o desfecho clínico. Conclusão: A grande quantidade de problemas farmacoterapêuticos identificados, as intervenções realizadas, o número de equipes participantes e a correlação entre as variáveis analisadas sugerem que a atuação do farmacêutico nas equipes multiprofissionais em terapia intensiva trouxe benefício para os pacientes participantes do estudo. A alta taxa de aceitação evidencia a relevância do farmacêutico clínico na promoção de uma farmacoterapia racional e segura e auxílio no cuidado do paciente crítico.

Objective: to estimate the prevalence of medication-induced delirium and drug-related problems (DRP) in older people hospitalized in intensive care unit (ICU). Methods: A systematic review were conducted in PubMed, EMBASE, LILACS, Ageline, Web of Science, and Cochrane databases (until March 2023). Clinical trials and observational studies that investigated the contribution of medication in the occurrence of delirium and compared with critically ill older patients (aged≥65 years old) without the syndrome were included. We excluded emergency departments, medical wards, primary and secondary healthcare levels, patients with delirium tremens; metabolic encephalopathy; dementia; palliative care; and brain metastasis. The references were entered into Rayyan QCRI. Two pairs of reviewers selected the articles, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias (ROBINS-I). Results: Of 12,492 studies retrieved, after de-duplication exclusion (n=6,025), title/abstract (n=6,467) and full reading (n=286), two met the inclusion criteria. Both were observational (cohort), developed in high-income countries, with high level of risk of bias (overall). The frequency of delirium and subsyndromal delirium was 15.8% to 33.9%. Independent risk factors were the exposure of opioids and use of corticosteroids. Delirium increased the length of hospital stay in ICU, and the mechanical ventilation. Conclusion: Further studies are necessary to understand the DRP and characteristics of pharmacotherapy associated with delirium in critically ill older people. Adverse drug reactions and deliriogenic load seem to contribute to the occurrence of syndrome.
