Involuntary childlessness adversely affects the lives of women on a global scale, including in Pakistan. In many cultures motherhood is seen as a social obligation, central to women's roles. This study conducted qualitative semi-structured interviews with 19 childless women to examine the cultural, societal, and individual factors that shape their self-perceptions. The findings revealed that cultural norms and social attitudes significantly influenced how childless women perceive themselves coped with these cultural and relational pressures. The interviewees experienced social pressure, stigma, and discrimination from family and community, particularly in-laws and husbands, negatively impacting their self-esteem. Additionally, values, religiosity, and economic conditions further contribute to how women perceive themselves and their situation, with some experiencing guilt, shame, and mental health challenges. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of the factors that shape the self-perceptions of involuntary childless women, highlighting the importance of a holistic approach that considers cultural, societal, and individual factors in addressing this issue in the context of the SDGs, specifically Goal 5: Gender Equality, and Goal 3: Good Health and Well-being. Keywords: Infertility, Involuntary childlessness, Pakistani women, Stigmatization, Non-parenthood.

Published: May 2023

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the psychological risk factors of suicidal ideation among acid attack survivors in Pakistan. Through purposive sampling, interview responses of sixteen acid attack survivors with the age range between 18-45 years, who had experienced this incident within the past 3 years were qualitatively analyzed. The sample was collected from Lahore, Multan, Rawalpindi, Islamabad, and Faisalabad. For the analysis and interpretation of the data thematic analysis was used as it provides in-depth information of the research. The results indicated that the psychological risk factors common among acid attack survivors with suicidal ideation include depression, low self-esteem, perceived stigma, and PTSD. The emergent subthemes were hopelessness, helplessness, loneliness, inadequacy, lack of family support, self-hatred, worthlessness and being a burden on others. The coping strategies that emerged are emotion focused coping, problem focused coping and religious coping. As one of the few studies looking into the psychological factors risking suicidal tendencies in an often-overlooked population, the study offers guidance for future intervention plans for preventing suicidal tendencies among acid attack survivors in Pakistan. Practical implications for practitioners and future research directions for scholars are also discussed. Keywords: Acid attack survivors, qualitative research, thematic analysis, psychological risk factors, suicidal ideation

This purpose of the present study was to assess the role of cognitive emotion regulation strategies as well as family structure with regard to impacting aggression in Pakistani adolescents. A sample of 300 (150 belonging to joint and 150 belonging to nuclear families) adolescents (aged 13-18 years) was recruited from schools in urban and rural areas of Pakistan. The participants completed questionnaires assessing cognitive emotion regulation strategies, family structure, and aggression levels. SPSS 21.0 and associated interventions were used for data analysis. reappraisal and refocus on planning had a significant negative association with physical and verbal aggression. However, cognitive emotional regulation strategies including self-blame, others blame, catastrophizing and other disruptive strategies were positively associated with physical and verbal aggression. It was also found that adolescents raised in nuclear family system used more disruptive strategies including rumination, catastrophizing, self-blame, others blame along with higher levels of verbal aggression and hostility while adolescents belonging to joint family systems used acceptance, positive refocusing, putting into perspective along with having a higher emphasis on planning which further allowed them to minimize their aggression.

Published: May 2023

This study explored Seoul citizens’ intention to use housekeeping services provided by the government and the factors influencing that intention. Using online survey data of 1,703 adults aged 20 to 64 years in Seoul, descriptive statistics, chi-square tests, and binomial logistic regression were conducted. The results were as follows: First, families with children, children under the age of 12, dual-income families, and families with a higher level of subjective socioeconomic status were more likely to use private housekeeping services.
Second, 58.4% of participants had the intention to use housekeeping services provided by the government.
Third, factors such as experience using private housekeeping services, having children under the age of 12, dual-income families, experience in time constraints, and higher socioeconomic status were found to be associated with higher odds of intention to use government-provided housekeeping services among families with children. These findings suggest that policy support is warranted to help families with a lower socioeconomic status.

Published: May 2023

This study examined the process of men becoming stay-at-home fathers and the rewards and costs experienced by stay-at-home fathers through a literature review from a family perspective in 12 published studies written in Korean and English. The results of the study are as follows. First, the process of men becoming at-home dads was the result of a reasonable choice based on the family’s tacit or direct agreement and a kind of family strategy at a time when there was a gap in care for preschool children. Second, the main rewards experienced since becoming at-home dads, namely, to promote intimacy and bond with their children, improve relationships with their wives, and to make their children more flexible in their thinking and more mature, were largely related to their families. Third, the costs of being an at-home dad were stigmatization, alienation and isolation, confusion of an identity as a man, and depression due to negative emotions and child-care burdens. Several major causes stemmed from the gender role stereotype implied in society. Practical suggestions to enhance services at Family Centers and other public policy support were discussed to strengthen stay-at-home fathers and their families.

Published: May 2023

O advento da fruticultura no Submédio São Francisco é seus expressivos resultados econômicos têm inspirado alguns grupos de campesinos praticantes da agricultura familiar a buscarem na atividade um aumento da renda familiar. Uma das culturas que vem ganhando espeço neste grupo social é a banana, principalmente devido seu baixo custo de implantação e da menor complexidade do trato agrícola, quando comparado com a cultura da manga e da uva. A comunidade Quilombola do Serrote vem experimentando uma expansão generalizada da monocultura da banana em seu território, com resultados econômicos auspicioso, mas que, não vem representando segurança alimentar e nutricional, muito menos conseguindo modificar o quadro de vulnerabilidade da comunidade. A melhoria da renda auferidos por parte do grupo, além de não representar um desenvolvimento libertador e ecologicamente sustentável, vem causando problemas socioambientais como a degradação de áreas irrigadas, a perca de capital social coletivo em decorrência da falta de equidade na evolução social do grupo, bem como, sua capacidade de envolver-se socialmente nas causas coletivas. Nesta perspectiva torna-se importante analisar até que ponto o crescimento econômico do corpo social em decorrência da expansão do cultivo da banana não tem se tornado um “des” envolvimento deste grupo tradicional.

O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar a qualidade do leite de cabra na microrregião de Ubá-MG e verificar se os resultados obtidos estão em conformidade com os valores padrões permitidos pela IN nº 37/2000. O projeto de extensão ocorreu entre os meses de maio a dezembro de 2019, em 4 (quatro) propriedades da microrregião de Ubá- Minas Gerais, com clima subtropical. As coletas de leite foram realizadas por 4 (quatro) meses consecutivos em cada uma das propriedades, analisando os parâmetros de: gordura, proteína, lactose, extrato seco total (EST) e contagem de células somáticas (CCS) pelo Laboratório de Microbiologia do Leite da Embrapa Gado de Leite- Sede Juiz de Fora- MG. Utilizou-se o delineamento inteiramente casualizado (DIC) com quatro tratamentos (propriedades) e 4 repetições (meses). Os dados foram submetidos a análise de variância (ANOVA) unidirecional, com comparação de médias realizada através do teste Tukey a nível de 5% de significância pelo software Rstudio v. 3.6.1. Após obtenção das médias das amostras, os resultados foram comparados com os valores permitidos pela IN nº 37 do (MAPA). Conclui-se que as 4 propriedades estudadas atendem os padrões da IN 37/2000 somente para o quesito gordura, já para os outros parâmetros, não são todas as propriedades que atendem os requisitos mínimos. Por fim, é essencial a adoção de práticas de manejo nestas propriedades para melhorar os parâmetros da composição do leite, e consequentemente, a qualidade do produto final.

Para isto, após apresentar uma síntese biográfica de Weber seguida de sua filiação teórica, com o objetivo é contextualizar melhor o pensamento do autor no tempo e espaço de sua produção, entra na epistemologia de sua produção reflexiva com atenção especial para a relação entre cultura e Capitalismo.
O modelo de crescimento com restrição no balanço de pagamentos: uma síntese da literatura econômica
Authors: Campos Elizama Nascimento Oliveira , Lamonica Marcos Tostes , Campos Samuel Alex Coelho
Published: May 2023

O objetivo deste trabalho foi resgatar as principais contribuições ao modelo de crescimento com restrição no Balanço de Pagamentos e suas principais modificações, a partir do modelo seminal de Thirwall (1979). Os modelos de crescimento econômico com restrição externa vêm ganhando espaço a partir da abordagem de Kaldor (1968) e de Thirwall (1979) como uma teoria alternativa na explicação das taxas de crescimento. Neste contexto a demanda externa (as exportações) constitui a principal restrição para o crescimento, principalmente nos países em desenvolvimento. Logo, este trabalho resgata ideias semelhantes de que as exportações são essenciais para prover e sustentar o crescimento econômico de longo prazo. De forma que, a estrutura produtiva de uma dada economia deve gerar aumento das exportações que impliquem em taxas de crescimento com equilíbrio no balanço de pagamentos. Neste sentido, recomenda-se políticas econômicas e industriais que impulsionem setores mais dinâmicos, tal como a aceleração das exportações e consequentemente um maior crescimento econômico.

As a kind of our country's service industry, financial service trade still has a big gap with other countries in terms of international competitiveness. Financial service trade is one of our country's comparative advantages, but with economic globalization, the connection between countries getting closer.In such an open era, factors such as the accelerated international capital flow, large capital flow, and fierce market competition have caused serious impacts to most countries in the world, and problems have arisen in the development of the domestic financial industry and the real economy industry. As a result, it will affect the overall competitiveness of the domestic financial industry, etc. These situations lead us to pay attention to some bad results brought about by financial services trade. It is necessary to analyze and study the reasons for these bad performances and give corresponding measures. This paper mainly conducts a relevant analysis from the research on the international competitiveness of China's financial services trade.

Authors: Zhuang Fangyan , Jiao Meijuan , Chen Yi
Published: May 2023

As a hot topic in the world, the promotion of green finance in underdeveloped regions has many obstacles with complex levels and different attributes. This paper combined relevant surveys and expert opinions to determine the barriers to the promotion of green finance in underdeveloped areas, used the ISM (Interpretative Structural Modeling) to sort out the hierarchical structure and action paths of the factors, and applied MICMAC (Matriced Impacts Corises-multiplcation Appliance Classement) to determine the key focus objects. The research results show that: the system of obstacles to the promotion of green finance in underdeveloped areas consists of 15 factors, which can be divided into three levels: the surface layer, the intermediate layer and the bottom layer. Among them, low policy effectiveness, low utilization rate of advantageous resources, single green financial products and services, lack of professional talents, and frail resultant force of ecological poverty have strong dependence and low driving force. The solutions to these factors depend on other factors’ solution. Insufficient government guidance, incomplete construction of information sharing platform, and unbalanced development of productivity have relatively high driving forces, which are the most fundamental hindering factors and should be focused on.

Authors: Zhang Kaiwen , Dai Guyan , Chen Tianhui
Published: May 2023

It is an important mission of the Party Central Committee to gradually achieve common prosperity, and it is of great contemporary significance to investigate the mechanism of the impact of digital inclusive finance on common prosperity in depth. Based on the panel data of 31 provinces from 2011-2021, this paper uses the Entropy-Topsis method to measure and quantify the development level of common prosperity and conducts convergence and clustering analysis, and then uses the two-factor fixed effects model to explore the mechanism and heterogeneity of different factors on common prosperity. The empirical results show that: firstly, the development level of common affluence among regions is increasing and the gap is narrowing year by year,and the development of common affluence in economically developed regions is significantly better than that in economically backward regions;secondly,digital inclusive finance significantly promotes the development of common affluence; besides, innovation ability, openness to the outside world and urbanization level all play a significant positive role in the development of common affluence.Thirdly,from the perspective of heterogeneity, first, the breadth of coverage and depth of use of digital inclusion can effectively promote the development of common prosperity, and second, the promotion effect of digital inclusion is more obvious in East China and South China. Finally, combined with the empirical results, this paper puts forward relevant suggestions for realizing the high-quality development of common affluence.

Authors: Zhu Qianqian , Hu Peiya , Han Jinge
Published: May 2023

Marriage relationship is an important factor affecting the economic decision-making and long-term development of enterprises, and the annual report’s tone, as text information to record the current operation status and future performance of enterprises, is an important reflection of corporate behavior during husband and wife's shareholding. This paper uses listed family companies from 2011 to 2021 as an initial sample to study the impact of couple's joint holdings on the tone of annual reports. The study found that when the actual controlling husband and wife jointly held shares, the annual report’s tone was more positive. Further research found that the effect of husband and wife joint shareholding on the tone of annual reports is affected by the proportion of fixed assets of enterprises and whether the chairman and CEO of the enterprise are concurrent. Combining the marital relationship in the family business with the annual report information of the enterprise is helpful to deeply explore the macro-overview of the current and future development of the enterprise under the marriage relationship, and provides a new perspective for understanding the decision-making and planning of the family business.

The inadequacy of GDP to reflect the depletion of natural resources and the environmental impact of economic activities has raised the necessity to replace it with GGDP. This study aims to develop a comprehensive GGDP metric that incorporates diverse indicators from multiple dimensions and can adapt to changes in indicators over time. Specifically, the study develops a Two-Dimensional Adaptive GGDP-Accounting Model (2-DAG Model). The model involves selecting four aspects, namely Economic Development (ED), Environmental Cost (EC), Technological Progress (TP), and Societal Environmental Protection (SEP). Each aspect is associated with corresponding indicators. ED, EC, and TP are categorized under the Dimension-X, while SEP is placed in the Dimension-Y. The Entropy Weight Method (EWM) is utilized to allocate weights to the indicators within each aspect. The logistic equation is employed to describe the coefficient- in the dimension-x, enabling the construction of the two dimensions. By combining the two dimensions, the final Gross Green Domestic Product (GGDP) value is determined.

As a precious item in the foreign trade along the Silk Road, it is of great significance to analyze the composition and identify the type of glass relics. In this paper, through the training of random forest, the characteristic importance of each index is obtained, and the classification rule is obtained. It is determined that lead oxide (PbO) is the most important index in the classification of glass types. Then, the k value was determined by the elbow principle, and k=5 was selected as the cluster type. After that, k-means clustering was carried out on the high potassium and lead barium glass respectively to get the classification results, which were divided into 5 subclasses. Due to the small amount of data, in the random forest model, the robustness of the model is constantly enhanced through multiple hyperparameter tuning. In the trained random forest model, it is found that the results do not change, which proves the model is reasonable. At the same time, the correlation between the chemical components of the glass cultural relics samples of different categories was analyzed, and the difference of the correlation between the chemical components of different categories was compared.

Numerous studies have shown that the number of different species plays an important role in how the plant community adapts during successive multi-generational drought cycles. In this paper, we first collected relevant data and completed the pre-processing of the data. Then the community ecological environment index was quantitatively analyzed through indicators such as biodiversity and birth mortality in the region, and the correlation between the characteristic X indicators was obtained through correlation analysis, and the supervised learning relationship between the characteristic indicators, indicators and ecological environment index was established, and the best SVM model was obtained through Bayesian optimization and network parameter synchronization. The final model accuracy is 91.6%, and the root mean square error is less than 0.382, which is adaptable and strong scientific. Based on this model, the number of species in the index, the correlation between species and the value of the environmental quality index kept changing, the data changed in the model to the corresponding changes in the ecological environmental index, in order to see the impact of different environments and species in the ecosystem, a qualitative analysis was performed, and finally the impact of the number and type of species on the plant community was studied.

The National Basketball Association (NBA) is one of the four major professional sports leagues in the United States and holds substantial economic value. Since the creation of the NBA, the issue of NBA player salaries has become increasingly relevant and the disproportionate salaries of players has emerged as a challenge that obstructs the growth of the league. This paper will employ data from 331 NBA players over the 2020-2021 season to develop multiple linear regression models for analyzing appropriate player salaries. The multiple regression analysis was conducted using basic and advanced data of players as independent variables, which include dozens of variables such as player's age, player's number of games, and player's average score, and player salary as dependent variable. In order to analyze the results more accurately, several types of multiple linear regression models are used in this paper: Ordinary least squares, Ridge regression, Lasso regression, Elastic net regression. The outcome of the regression model for NBA player salary will contribute to enhancing the commercial worth of the NBA and provide constructive input to the league and the team. This research found investors place higher significance on players' three-point shooting proficiency, defensive abilities, and teamwork capacity, which aligns with the current playing style of the NBA.

There is a researching that three teachers with two different teaching methods in a junior high school, where students came from four different ethnic groups. Ruger and Smith used the standards-based method and Wesson used the traditional method, they were suggested to use the same teaching approach and the same textbook. The study aims to understand fully which teacher is best fitted for which ethnic group and which teaching approach is better. This research used statistical methods such as pie charts and bar plots to analyze data and used linear regression to investigate the relationships between the teaching methods and the students’ performance. The results showed that students who were taught by Ruger achieved the lowest math scores across all ethnics; Smith's teaching method suits Caucasian students; the traditional method resulted in higher math scores for students of African-American, Asian and Hispanic; and students who learnt using traditional method got higher scores compared to students learnt using standards-based method in average. Although each method has its own benefit, these results suggest that the traditional method is better than the standards-based method and these teachers should use the same teaching approach.

Through image processing technology, programmers use instructions on a computer to identify the composition diagram of various molds. The automatic identification system device on the production line will identify whether the molds produced are qualified according to preset instructions, eliminating unqualified molds, fully realizing industrial testing automation, and quickly and accurately eliminating unqualified molds. This not only saves labor costs, but also avoids the subjectivity of manual testing. This paper proposes a method based on translation line segments to calculate the perimeter of irregular shapes. Translation refers to the movement of objects along a straight line in the same plane. This phenomenon is common in everyday life, such as children playing on slides in amusement parks, and the moving elevators of six supermarkets ascending or descending. Calculate the geometric feature parameters of the image area using the translation line segment method. According to the different appearance characteristics of the product, take photos of it from different angles and perform image processing, and comprehensively determine the required geometric feature parameter values. Calculate the geometric characteristic parameters of the product, and then compare them with the standard specifications. Conduct alarm marking processing for products that do not meet the requirements, facilitating manual removal.

As society's demand for the web has become greater, web crawler technology has been introduced and widely applied in various applications. Web crawling technology has a very controversial nature, with many people loving to use it, but many resisting. This study will discuss the definition of web crawling technology and analyze the reason why it is popular but also resisted by the public, and demonstrate the detail approach to implement web crawlers on Python. This leads to the conclusion that web crawling is a web technology that can save time and labor and can be applied to data investigation. The reason for its popularity is that it saves time and can automatically visit the desired web pages and retrieve data from them. However, it is resisted for many reasons, one of which is that it can cause damage to the interests of others, because web crawlers can collect paid data by special means. Python is the best language for running web crawlers because Python is the programming language that most resembles human language.
