Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) boost plant growth and agricultural sustainability in an ecologically friendly way. The cultivation of chrysanthemum, a globally significant flower crop, has relied heavily on substantial agrochemical inputs that have detrimental impact on the environment. To assess the potential of chrysanthemum rhizobacteria to reduce this reliance, bacterial strains were retrieved from the plant rhizosphere and subjected to an assessment of various plant growth-promoting traits. Out of the 34 rhizobacterial isolates, 21 demonstrated the production of the plant growth hormone auxin, 21 had phosphate solubilization ability, 22 were capable of nitrogen fixation, and 21 could produce ammonia. Based on these findings, seven preeminent PGPR strains, characterized by multifaceted plant growth-promoting traits, were selected for subsequent studies and identified as species belonging to Acinetobacter, Bacillus, Pantoea, Serratia and Staphylococcus. The selected strains were systematically analyzed for their capacity to endure an array of abiotic stresses. A majority of these strains demonstrated adaptation under osmotic stress ranging from -0.15 to -0.49 MPa, temperatures of 20°C and 30°C, and salt stress within the range of 3 to 7% NaCl, which suggests their potential to promote plant growth across diverse environmental conditions. Additionally, the secretion of hydrolytic enzymes such as protease, pectinase and amylase was examined, and only the Staphylococcus hominis PGPR-12 strain demonstrated the ability to produce all three extracellular hydrolases. These findings underscore the potential application of multiple isolates possessing promising plant-probiotic properties to enhance plant growth across various conditions, thereby necessitating further exploration through pot and field assays.

A qualitative exploration of how extended paternity leave can promote fathers’ psychological wellbeing
Authors: Hobbs Jessica
Published: June 2024

The perinatal period is known to be a vulnerable time for parents’ mental health and wellbeing. Research about fathers’ health during this time is in its infancy and has focused predominantly on mental health problems. Much less is known about how fathers experience their own wellbeing or what can help their lives (and consequently the lives of their family) to go well during the significant event of having a baby. Early research suggests that allowing fathers to take a longer period of paternity leave could help to promote their wellbeing. The aim of this study was therefore to explore the experiences of some of the first fathers to take extended paternity leave following the UK’s introduction of its new Shared Parental Leave policy in 2015. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with sixteen fathers from around the UK who were employed in a variety of industries. The sample included both first-time fathers and those extending their family. Template Analysis was initially used to systematically analyse the data. The overarching conclusion was that the wellbeing of these fathers appeared to flourish during a major life event that has a known association with mental health problems for many fathers. To seek an explanation for this, the findings were interpreted using a novel approach based on the theoretical framework of Ryff’s (1989) six aspects of psychological wellbeing. A conceptual model is therefore proposed that suggests extended paternity leave can promote fathers’ psychological wellbeing by allowing them a rare and valuable opportunity for self-reflection, personal growth, development of parental mastery, and to support the wellbeing of their family. This qualitative exploration contributes a deep understanding of the nature of these fathers’ individual experiences of their own psychological wellbeing. The potential of extended paternity leave for promoting the wellbeing of fathers and their families during the critical postnatal period signals that there may be value in researching the relationship between paternal leave and wellbeing further.
Getting outside of ourselves: Towards an other-oriented model of psychological health
Authors: Rosset Evelyn , El-Jor Claire , Kotsou Ilios , Shankland Rebecca
Published: June 2024

This paper examines key assumptions about the benefits of self-oriented care and other-oriented care that have been guiding considerable amounts of research and applications in psychology. More specifically, the paper questions the importance of what can be referred to as the ‘Oxygen Mask Assumption,’ the belief that it is often best to take care of oneself to better take care of others. Based on mounting evidence of the benefits of prosocial behaviour, both for the giver and the receiver, this paper proposes an explicitly other-oriented model of wellbeing. The paper first outlines the Oxygen Mask Assumption and research demonstrating the importance of self-oriented care and the implicit model guiding much of this research. This is followed by examining recent research on the benefits of prosocial behaviour, and the introduction of an other-oriented model of wellbeing. Predictions based on both models are evaluated in light of current research. Theoretical and practical implications of adopting an other-oriented model are discussed.
A STUDY ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION PROCESS ON QUALITY OF HIRING AND ORGANISATIONAL PERFORMANCE
Authors: Arvind, Mr. Mishra Hritik Saurabh
Published: June 2024

In order to evaluate the clarity of job descriptions, timeliness of procedures, and general HR efficiency, this study looks at how well recruiting and selection processes work inside a firm. With a descriptive study design, the approach used basic random sampling to guarantee unbiased results while gathering data via a survey given to 50 employees. Structured questions were used in the survey to collect quantitative data, which was then examined graphically. The study's conclusions show that employees generally have a favorable opinion of the HR department's efficacy and the clarity of job assignments. Responses did, however, also point out areas that needed work, notably with regard to the recruitment process's consistency and speed. These findings imply that although the company's hiring practices are generally successful, there is still need to improve staff happiness and procedural effectiveness. Keywords: Recruitment and Selection, Organization, HR Department.

Relation of several pedological characteristics to engineering qualities in expansive clays of Northern Venezuela
Authors: Lopez-Nino Carlos , Lopez-Hernandez Danilo
Published: June 2024

The Caribbean Coastal Region of Venezuela with a semi-arid climate presents adequate conditions for the development of soils with expansive clays, which are the main pathology registered by the roads and surrounding infrastructures in the region. Correlation studies in temperate soils have shown that there is a close association between Atterberg limits (AL) with the clay content, less information exists in the literature between the association of AL and other soil physical properties of soil (e.g. in situ water-content and soil particle density). The main objectives of this research were to: evaluate the presence of expansive clays in northern Venezuela through the limits and indices of Atterberg, and to relate the AL to soil physical properties determined during both soil surveys and geotechnical evaluation of risks. The plasticity index (PI) and the shrinkage limit (SL) of the clays are high, whereas the plasticity chart of the samples indicates two well-defined groups, a major one, in the area of low plasticity, the other group in the area of high plasticity. The information shown a close association between the original moisture content of the samples with the AL, highlighting, the strong association of LL and PI with moisture content in situ. However, the soil particle density and the bulk density were negatively related to moisture content. The information presented here for tropical samples confirms the information in the literature for temperate zones, where it is concluded that the liquid, plastic and plasticity index limits were highly significantly related to the clay content.
Evaluation of bitcoin options with interest rate risk and systemic risk
Authors: Hsu Pao-Peng , Wang Chiang-Hui
Published: June 2024

This study introduces closed-form formulas for valuing European call options, assuming that Bitcoin follows a compound Poisson process. Additionally, instantaneous forward interest rates are considered in the Heath-Jarrow-Morton model, which includes a jump component. To address the impacts of systematic risk on Bitcoin price and interest rate, we model two stochastic processes using a correlated bivariate jump-diffusion model to capture individual jumps and systematic co-jumps. This study provides analytic formulas for pricing Bitcoin call options and zero-coupon bonds under the correlated jump-diffusion Heath-Jarrow-Morton model. Numerical analysis shows how co-jump intensity affects the prices of both zero-coupon bonds and Bitcoin call options. We specifically look at how these prices change in response to co-jump intensity across three different instantaneous forward rate term structures. The findings show that the prices of Bitcoin call options are contingent on the term structure types of zero-coupon bonds. In addition, the interaction of co-jump intensity and types of term structure also affects Bitcoin option prices. The practical significance of this study is to provide a comprehensive model to evaluate Bitcoin call options and enhance risk management strategies in the Bitcoin market when the Bitcoin market encounters changes in monetary policy or changes in macroeconomic conditions.
Current status of awareness and use the phenomenon of students' language code-mixing and the issue of preserving the purity of the Vietnamese language
Authors: Vinh Le Thi Thuy
Published: June 2024

In this article, we set out to survey the current state of awareness and use of the phenomenon of language code-mixing among young people, thereby assessing the causes and effects and providing directions in language use by contemporary Vietnamese youth. Currently, code-mixing is a very common phenomenon in young people’s communication, especially pupils and students in high schools and universities. Code-mixing is not only a purely linguistic phenomenon but also a phenomenon recognized in language-cultural contact. This phenomenon has created a lot of mixed public opinion. This phenomenon significantly contributes to maintaining the purity of the Vietnamese language in contemporary times. By using statistical methods based on questionnaires administered to over 1,000 students at Vietnamese universities, we have obtained results regarding the current status of awareness and use of code-mixing phenomenon in the language. The results obtained show that young people in Vietnam have relatively correct awareness about the use of language code mixing phenomenon, but there is still a need for measures to orient a part of young people to improve their language skills. I highly recommend the use of code-mixing phenomenon in particular and modern languages in general. The three measures proposed in the article, namely raising awareness among young people, promoting language education, and coordinating between relevant parties, will certainly contribute to the work of preserving the purity of the Vietnamese language.

The present study aimed to assess focus/concentration, perception of quality of life, class attention, and anxiety, as well as class attendance and academic performance of nursing undergraduates from a Higher Education Institution before and after the application of breathing and mindfulness meditation techniques. Forty-five seventh-semester (fourth-year) students of both genders, aged 18 and above, participated in the study. The technique was applied for three months through breathing and meditation practices in the classroom. For data collection, a structured questionnaire with four closed-ended questions was used, administered before and after the training sessions. The overall results of the indicators showed that the undergraduates demonstrated a 32.6% improvement in focus/concentration, a 32.4% improvement in perceived quality of life post-training. Regarding class attention, there was a 25.7% increase. An improvement of 44% was observed in anxiety levels, along with a 27% increase in class attendance (reduced absenteeism), and a 74% enhancement in academic performance. The students showed significant improvements in all indicators related to focus/concentration, quality of life, anxiety levels, absenteeism, and academic performance after learning and practicing some breathing and mindfulness meditation techniques. These data underscore the importance of integrating mindfulness approaches in the educational context, contributing to the development of undergraduates.
The impact of ease of doing business and technological infrastructure on economic growth in the Arab world
Authors: Maiss Amale El , Taher Hanadi
Published: June 2024

Purpose:  This paper examines the effects of technological infrastructure and a business-friendly environment on economic growth in the Arab world from 2004 to 2021 using a detailed panel data analysis approach.
Design/Methodology/Approach:  The study chooses the fixed effect model based on the Hausman test with additional diagnostic tests confirming the absence of serial correlation and heteroscedasticity employing fixed and random effect models on data from thirteen Arab countries.
Findings: Findings reveal a negative relationship between ease of doing business and GDP growth (Gross Domestic Product) suggesting that improvements in the business environment paradoxically decrease economic growth. Conversely, a positive relationship exists between the human development index and economic growth underscoring the significance of human capital. Notably, no significant relationship is detected between technological infrastructure and economic growth.
Conclusion: The study concludes that regulatory reforms and human capital investment are pivotal for economic growth in the Arab world  challenging the assumed positive impact of ease of doing business on economic expansion. It underscores the need for a strategic focus on developing human resources and technological infrastructure to foster sustainable economic growth.
Contribution to the Literature: This research contributes to the economic literature by highlighting the nuanced effects of the ease of doing business and the essential role of human capital in driving economic growth within the Arab region offering new insights for policymakers.

La humanidad se encuentra hoy en día frente a un desafío si precedentes, los recursos naturales están siendo devastados en nombre del progreso, esto ha provocado que el calentamiento global produzca una cantidad importante de desastres naturales que inevitablemente desencadenan en la destrucción de sembradíos, inundaciones, incendios, lo que genera crisis sociales, energéticas y climáticas, así como la marcada diferencia entre géneros, la pobreza extrema y desigualdades sociales marcan el día a día de la situación global. El objetivo de esta investigación es realizar un análisis de los objetivos planteados desde el año 2015, por las Naciones Unidas, con la finalidad de establecer acciones a seguir para lograr un mundo y una sociedad basada en la equidad y sustentabilidad, mediante una metodología documental bibliográfica, en donde se revisaron fuentes de datos secundarias como libros, publicaciones científicas en revistas indexadas, web oficiales, entre otros, todo ello utilizando el motor de búsqueda Google Académico. Dentro de las conclusiones a las que se llegó luego de esta revisión, destacan la necesidad de establecer indicadores de cumplimiento de los objetivos planteados hasta la fecha, ya que por ejemplo, la pandemia generada por el Covid 19 no estuvo contemplada cuando se diseñó el plan, y esto incidió de manera directa en la paralización del camino andado de los objetivos, por otro lado, por la proximidad de la fecha meta (2030) resulta necesario retomar los planteamientos principales y reevaluarlos para estudiar su viabilidad.
ENTRE O HÉTERO-DETERMINISMO ESTRUTURAL E A AUTODETERMINAÇÃO AGENCIAL; SEXO E GÉNERO ENTRE TRAVESTIS BRASILEIRAS EM CONTEXTO MIGRATÓRIO DE PROSTITUIÇÃO EM PORTUGAL
Authors: Luís Francisco José Silva do Amaral
Published: June 2024

Este artigo procura aprofundar o papel dos poderes estruturais e infraestruturais na coprodução de identidades, mediante exercício tacitamente delegado em instituições da socialização, passiva ou negociada por parte dos seus destinatários. Neste quadro, há autores que organizaram os seus percursos académicos acentuando um outro prisma de abordagem, vulgo, estruturalismo ou agenciamento dos sujeitos. O estruturalismo, como o próprio nome indica advém de estrutura e esta encontra no discurso e sua ação conformativa de comportamentos, um dos seus meios privilegiados. A capacidade agencial e de autodeterminação dos sujeitos, por sua vez, assenta num argumentário que visa fundamentar a pertinência da performatividade como sendo ela própria, simultaneamente, consequência e fonte do discurso, mantendo com este uma relação próxima de reciprocidade dialogicamente condicionante. Neste enquadramento, procuraremos analisar autores que assumem, um ou outro posicionamento teórico, tendo não só como referência a sua bibliografia, mas, também o estudo de caso de Travestis Brasileiras que a dada altura conjeturaram emigrar para Portugal com o intuito de se dedicarem à atividade profissional que exercem no âmbito da indústria do sexo, procurando alcançar, como os outros migrantes, melhores condições de vida. Para tal, recorremos à observação participante e não participante – com recurso a entrevistas semidiretivas – bem como, à análise da evolução das relações de género, que historicamente se encontram profundamente hirarquizadas. A questão de fundo que suscitamos, é a de saber se a expressão de género, a atividade exercida e o próprio projeto migratório empreendido pelas Travestis Brasileiras, se situam no âmbito de constrangimentos sociais que as pressionaram para o efeito, ou, se pelo contrário, tais fenómenos ocorrem tendo como origem fundamental a sua capacidade agencial dentro da superestrutura, ou ainda, se, decorrem de combinatórias sociais diversificadas entre ambos os polos de abordagem.

Didapatkan juga hasil bahwa sejumlah faktor dievaluasi berlainan oleh tim pelaksana BIM antara sifat kuadran dan kesesuaiannya. Hal tersebut mengindikasikan adanya pemahaman terhadap standar protokol yang belum menyeluruh. Sehingga dibutuhkan adanya sosialisasi terkait dengan pelaksanaan BIM menurut standar protokol BIM Kementerian PUPR tahun 2020 oleh Kementerian PUPR untuk seluruh disiplin proyek.

There have been incredible developments over the last century brought about by the world shifting from focusing on productivity and efficiency to becoming increasingly focused on the impact that society has on the environment, and indeed on our own well-being. Climate change is already impacting society, and therefore behaviors, both individually and collectively, must be modified to create a better and more sustainable path forward. Governments are striving to implement policy changes towards a greater use of green technology, specifically around the generation of energy. Individuals and industrial organizations have also taken up the challenge, and now many companies are driving to significantly reduce their environmental footprint, or indeed become carbon negative within very short time frames (5–10 years). This generation, perhaps more than any other previous one, may be closest to causing wide-scale calamitous changes to the planet and to society. It is therefore pertinent for all aspects of society to assess what can be achieved to reduce the environmental footprint, no matter how small the impact may seem.
