Islamicisation of Medicine in the 13th Century: A Case of Ibn Abī Uṣaibia‘s History of Physicians
Authors: Abd Rahman Akmal Khuzairy bin
Published: January 2021

One of the challenges in the Islamization of knowledge project is the absence of a ready approach for integrating the existing disciplines within the Islamic knowledge paradigm. Among the constituents of such an approach is an epistemological framework that defines a discipline to serve as reference for further efforts on the operational level. This study intends to fill this gap with a perspective on Islamic epistemological framework in the field of medicine during the Islamic medieval era. The focus of analysis is on the topic of the origin of medicine and the views of ancient Greek physicians in the compilation entitled ‘Uyūn al-anbā’ fī ṭabaqāt al-aṭibba’ or History of Physicians authored by Ibn ’Abī ’Uṣaibia‘. The study used interpretive textual analysis method to arrive at certain constructs for an Islamic medical epistemological framework from the point of view of the author. The analysis concludes that the perspective of the author on the selected topics was suggestive of possible constructs for an Islamic epistemological framework that can serve as a point of reference for further development of an approach for integrating medical disciplines in the Islamization context.

Published: January 2021

The Islamic perspective slot (IPS) is a strategy to enhance the agenda of Islamisation of Knowledge in the curriculum of the Department of Biomedical Science (DBMS) at the Kulliyyah of Allied Health Sciences (KAHS), International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM). Here, the outcome of a 4-year implementation of the IPS is assessed by determining the knowledge, attitude and practices on the IPS in the Biomedical Science curriculum among IIUM Biomedical Science students. A cross-sectional study was performed using convenience sampling on 205 students administered with a self-guided questionnaire. The total score for each knowledge, attitude and practice were computed to find the association using SPSS. The total mean and standard deviation of knowledge, attitude and practice score were found to be 20.18±3.60, 89.47±12.99 and 38.22±6.94 respectively. There was weak positive correlation between knowledge and attitude (r=+0.286; p<0.001), and knowledge and practice (r=+0.246; p<0.001), and fair positive correlation between attitude and practice (r=+0.564; p<0.001). Significant association was also established between year of study and knowledge (p<0.001), attitude (p<0.001) and practice (p<0.001). Additionally, there were significant differences between gender with knowledge (p = 0.009) and attitude (p=0.016). However, there was no significant difference between gender in terms of practice (p=0.059). Educational background did not appear to influence knowledge (p=0.198), attitude (p=0.147) and practice (p = 0.876). The study revealed that overall students’ score on knowledge is moderate, whereas score on attitude is good and score on practice is low. The results revealed that the current practice involving the IPS is yet to achieve satisfactory outcome, improvements must be made and the study to be repeated again after improvements are made.

Published: January 2021

Acute glomerulonephritis is inflammation of the kidney mediated by an immunological process. Group A βhaemolytic streptococcal infection is common in children aged 5-12 years old and can lead to acute poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis which may develop after recovery from a streptococcal throat infection or skin infection (impetigo). 97% of cases occur in less developed country. The incidence has decreased in industrialized nations due to improved hygienic condition. A 7-year-old boy, the eldest child of 4 siblings from a divorced parent, was admitted to Hospital Tengku Ampuan Afzan Kuantan in March 2015 due to facial puffiness for 1 day duration. There was also dark colored urine. Patient had history of productive cough for 3 days and fever for 2 days. Father also complained of skin ulcer on patient’s right feet for about 1 month. There was hypertension (198/80 mmHg). Urine examination showed hematuria, proteinuria, and leucocyturia. Anti-streptolysin O titre was high (1:800) and complement C3 level was low (0.29). Patient was treated with antibiotic, diuretic, and anti-hypertension. The child is entrusted to the parents who will be called by the Almighty, who will ask them about this trust. Parents play vital role in maintaining and promoting the good health of the children. Parents should also pay attention to cleanliness, personal hygiene and the prevention of disease, especially infection. Islam paid attention to washing hands and cleansing the air inhaled into the lungs by regular cleaning of the nose as part of ablution before performing prayer. Parents are responsible in preserving life, health and growth of their children. Caring for cleanliness and hygiene is not only deemed a good habit in Islam but also rendered into rituals that constitute part of the faith itself.

Published: January 2021

Introduction: Caregiving for stroke patients is a challenging task both emotionally and physically. Studies have shown that caregiving can affect caregivers’ wellbeing that could lead to depression. Objective: This study was carried out to determine the prevalence and associated risk factors of depression amongst caregivers of stroke patients attending Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia (HUSM) in Kelantan over a 6 month period. Methodology: This is a cross sectional study at the primary care clinic in HUSM over a period of 6 months. A total of 116 caregivers of medically documented stroke patients who fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria were recruited via convenience sampling. The brief patient health questionnaire (PHQ-9) were used to assess their depression. Descriptive statistics and bivariable analysis was used using SPSS version 23.Results: 63.8% of the caregivers of stroke patients are depressed. Caregiver’s burden, ethnicity and patient’s ethnicity were found to be significant associated risk factors for depression.Conclusion: Screening for depression in caregivers especially those with risk factors must be carried out in the clinic in order to detect and intervene early. Coping mechanisms especially in the religious aspect should be elicited in future studies.
Transformational and Transactional Leadership Styles in Enhancing Nurse Educator’s Job Satisfaction: An Integrative Analysis of Conventional and Islamic Approaches
Authors: Moey Soo-Foon , Hashi Abdurezak Abdulahi
Published: January 2021

As nursing education gets more complex, leadership styles employed in these nursing training institutions played a crucial role in achieving nurse educators’ job satisfaction. As such, this study intends to elicit attributes and practices of nursing academic leaders’ transformational and transactional leadership styles in enhancing the job satisfaction of nurse educators. The qualitative method used for the study was based on the phenomenological approach to gather an in-depth understanding of human behaviour through interview, documents and observations. Purposive sampling was undertaken in selecting nine nurse educators from three nursing colleges from Johor and Melaka. Data from the interview were summarized in answering nurse educators' job satisfaction and perceived leadership styles and practices of nursing academic leaders. The responses from the verbatim transcriptions were analysed using the software Atlas Ti. The strong relationship between nursing academic leadership styles and nurse educators’ job satisfaction suggested that the academic nursing transformational leadership style played a prominent role on subordinates’ job satisfaction and that nursing academic leaders’ transformational leadership practices and attributes had the ability to encourage subordinates to achieve more than what they planned. Transactional leadership practised by the nursing academic leaders indicated a weak link to subordinates’ job satisfaction as the leaders’ emphasis on payoffs for performance and corrective actions were not as acceptable to that of transformational leadership attributes practised by the leaders. The study uncovered effective leadership was enacted via engaging leadership where the leader enabled the development of an organization modelled by a culture of integrity, transparency, accessibility and genuine valuing of others and that their contributions were concerned for the development and well-being of others. In fact, moral attributes like integrity, trustworthiness and commitment to work as well as decision making styles of leaders such as being consultative leader are among the basic Islamic teachings on establishing worthy social order.
Vaccination: Influencing Factors and View from an Islamic Perspective
Authors: Huda E. Zainudin Engku Nuraishah , Mohammad Khairool Azizul , Aris Athirah , Shahdan Intan Azura
Published: January 2021

Vaccine refusing and hesitant among parents has created a delicate issue for the health care providers because of its sensitivity in cultural differences, educational backgrounds and to a certain extent, politically motivated. Vaccination, which is an important intervention, correlates well with the priorities of Islamic jurisprudence (Maqasid al-Shariah); that states the preservation of life comes second after the preservation of Deen (religion). From the Islamic point of view, life is a gift from Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala (SWT; the Most Glorified, the Most High) and its protection and continuation is of greatest value and need. Aims: This brief article has the objective to firstly, investigate factors that influence vaccination, and secondly, understand the Islamic perspective on vaccination. Methodology: Relevant literatures were reviewed based on a combination of one or more of the following keywords: vaccine, vaccination decision, vaccine hesitancy, factors influencing vaccine, vaccine impact, Islamic perspective and Muslims practice. An Islamic perspective on vaccination was extracted using the primary sources (related Qur’anic verses and Hadith) as well as secondary sources (fatwa; Islamic jurisprudence, made by Islamic scholars). Lastly, the current available Shariah rulings on vaccination and the related principles involved were analyzed. Conclusion: The main outcome of this review would allow various parties. i.e. the community, health scientists, medical practitioners and vaccine manufacturers, to be cognizant in both earlier and recent Shariah rulings pertaining vaccination.

Inherited predisposition to breast and ovarian cancer are most frequently due to germline mutations in the
main genes BRCA1 (OMIM# 113705) and BRCA2 (OMIM# 600185). These inactivating mutations,
essentially frameshift and nonsense variation, occurs mainly across conserved regions. The aim of the
present study is to report a novel germline BRCA1 mutation identified in a Tunisian family case with early
onset of breast and ovarian cancer and to evaluate the genotype phenotype correlation. The proband had
high-grade tumors, invasive unilateral ductal carcinoma developed at the age of 38 and a serous ovarian
adenocarcinoma after a gap of twelve years. The molecular analysis revealed a novel heterozygous nonsense
BRCA1 mutation NM_007294.4: c.915T>A p.(C305*) in the proband and her daughter. This mutation leads
to a truncated protein which pathogenicity was validated by bioinformatics tools. This variant is subject to
nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. We also underlined the immunohistochemistry usefulness by lack of
expression of BRCA1 protein in paraffin embedded breast tumor contrasting with normal tissue. Clinical
and pathological data tend to be homogeneous and led to the conclusion that there is a genotype phenotype
correlation in BRCA1, an element that must be taken into account in genetic counselling. Conclusively, we
are the first to report this novel BRCA1 germline likely deleterious variant extending the molecular and
clinical spectrum of BRCA1 pathogenic point mutations. Further in vitro functional experiments needs to be
established. High-risk individuals carrying this BRCA1 mutation benefit from preventive measures to reduce
morbidity.

Authors: Abenoza Laura Anoro , Abenoza Laura Anoro , Cristina Buisán Esporrín
Published: January 2021

Non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV) is a therapeutic procedure that aims to supplement or improve
ventilatory function. In recent decades, its benefit and multiple indications, have been demonstrated in the
treatment of patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and its acute complications [1]. However, the use of
this therapy, in patients with chronic heart failure is not exempt from risks and complications, so it must be
carefully individualized and requires close monitoring when ischaemic heart disease and/or arterial
hypotension also coexist. Special mention requires the revision of the indication of servo ventilation in
patients with severe chronic heart failure, due to its possible adverse effects.

Published: January 2021

Postoperative Perineal hernia (PerH) is a recognised rare complication of radical pelvic oncologic
procedures for rectal cancer, with a reported prevalence of 0.6-7%. PerH is a swelling in the perineum
caused by herniation of abdominal or pelvic viscera through a defect in the pelvic floor. The cause of
postoperative PerH is not known, however, wide extent of dissection, wound infection, neoadjuvant
radiotherapy, length of small bowel and wider female pelvis, have been identified as risk factors for
development of postoperative PerH. Cause of PerH is not known. Universal case definition of PerH does
not exist, except it is a bulge in the perineum. Patients who are fit for surgery, have no recurrency, and are
bothered or have severe symptoms (perineal swelling, perineal skin necrosis, urinary problems and/or
intestinal obstruction) are offered surgical treatment. The aim of surgical repair is to exclude recurrency,
closure of the pelvic defect with reconstruction of a new pelvic floor and repair of hernia.

Features of protein metabolism in the body of broiler chickens when using the feed additive Peak-Antistress in the diet
Authors: Mitfakhutdinov A. V. , Saifulmuliukov E. R.
Published: January 2021

Scientific publications describe the positive effect of feed additives and pharmacological complexes on metabolic processes in the body of broiler chickens, in particular, on the protein composition of the blood, meat productivity and protein accumulation in meat. The Peak-Antistress feed additive developed at the Department of Morphology, Physiology and Pharmacology of the South Ural State Agrarian University allows to reduce the technological load on the poultry body by stimulating the general metabolism and complex antioxidant action. Experiments on the use of the feed additive Peak-Antistress were carried out on broiler chickens of the final hybrid of the Arbor Acres cross in an industrial-type poultry farm with floor technology. The poultry was divided into three groups of 6,000 chickens each and kept in one workshop in separate sections. The control group received the main diet, the 1st experimental group received the main diet and feed additive at a dose of 1269 g / t of feed 5 days before slaughter, the 2nd experimental group received the main diet and feed additive at a dose of 1693 g / t of feed 5 days before slaughter. Slaughter of broiler chickens was carried out according to the technological instructions of the enterprise on the 38th day. Against the background of the use of the feed additive in the experimental groups of broiler chickens, stimulation of protein metabolism was observed, as evidenced by an increase in total protein in the blood by 7.9–20.1%, an increase in the level of protein in white meat by 0.1–0.3%, and a tendency to an increase in amino acids in white meat protein by 0.2–12.3%.

Authors: Gaponov N. V. , Gamko L. N. , Lenkova T. N.
Published: January 2021

The results of studies on feeding biologically active additives suspensions of chlorella and Bactistatin in the diets of primates are presented. Its positive effect on the bioconversion of diets was experimentally established. The coefficients of digestibility of nutrients with dry chlorella and fishmeal in the composition of complete feed were determined. The obtained experimental data are important for the preparation of scientifically grounded and optimally balanced feeding rations, taking into account the digestibility of feed. This will optimally balance feed rations for all nutrients, while reducing feed costs and, as a result, increasing the profitability of keeping primates. It was found that the introduction of chlorella powder and fishmeal into the diet improves protein absorption by 6.83 and 5.66%, crude fat - by 2.61 and 3.92, crude fiber - by 4.78 and 4.25, NFES - by 4.15 and 2.26, crude ash - by 18.93 and 12.08%. The use of calcium and phosphorus macronutrients was higher in the 3rd experimental group, which received 14% chlorella in the main diet by 1.38 and 8.07%, respectively. In the 5th experimental group, which received 18.26% of the main ration of fishmeal, calcium was absorbed more efficiently by 4.77, and phosphorus - by 1.21%. The use of diet supplements in the form of a suspension of chlorella and Bactistatin helped to stimulate the bioconversion of nutrients in the diets used in the nursery for feeding monkeys, and enabled to maintain the main blood parameters within physiological norms.
Analysis of the effectiveness of the use of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the diagnosis of leukemia in cattle during health-improving activities
Authors: Loginov S. I.
Published: January 2021

The aim of the work is to analyze the efficiency of using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in the diagnosis of cattle leukemia when carrying out health-improving measures in livestock enterprises that are unfavorable for this disease. Indicators of infection of cattle with leukemia virus on 6 farms of agricultural enterprises of the Tomsk region are presented. For serological diagnostics, the immunodiffusion reaction and enzyme immunoassay were used. It has been established that while carrying out health-improving measures in enterprises unfavorable for leukemia in cattle, the use of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for serological diagnosis of the disease enabled to identify a greater number of seropositive animals in comparison with a low-sensitivity immunodiffusion reaction. With a decrease in the herd infection rate to single cases of detection of animals infected with the leukemia virus at the final stages of rehabilitation of the enterprise, the number of additional seropositive animals detected by enzyme immunoassay increases. In the final period of herd recovery, the number of animals with a low level of antibodies to the leukemia virus, inaccessible to detection by immunodiffusion, increases. The use of an expensive and labor-consuming delivery of an enzymelinked immunosorbent assay to detect antibodies to the cattle leukemia virus is advisable at the final stages of an enterprise’s recovery. This enables to identify animals with a low level of antibodies to the leukemia virus, to speed up the negative result of a serological test of the entire herd and to exclude repeated outbreaks of infection of animals with this virus in a rehabilitated enterprise.

Published: January 2021

Os sistemas educacionais, historicamente são moldados visando uma formação profissional específica, e com metodologias de “transmissão” de conteúdos, deixando de estimular o pensamento crítico do estudante e a busca por aplicações práticas. Todavia, é observada uma crescente tendência das organizações de buscarem contratar funcionários de atitude empreendedora, portanto, é necessário que a escola prepare os estudantes para atender às demandas de mercado. Dessa forma, a inserção da educação empreendedora nos diferentes níveis de educação é fundamental, salientando também para a importância do uso de metodologias ativas na educação para – e não sobre – empreender. O objetivo dessa pesquisa é identificar a presença de conteúdos de educação empreendedora em um Campus do IFPE. Para tanto, utilizamos de uma pesquisa de caráter exploratório, descritivo e de campo, cujos sujeitos foram os docentes da área de Gestão que atuam no Curso Técnico em Segurança do Trabalho e os estudantes do Curso Técnico em Segurança do Trabalho do Campus escolhido, e o Campo de pesquisa é, por conveniência, o IFPE – Campus Recife. Salientamos, dentre nossos principais resultados, para a identificação de algumas iniciativas de fomento ao empreendedorismo dentro do Campus – como o Ciclo de Palestras “A Gestão no Todo”, o Programa Internacional Despertando Vocações (PDV), o Programa Institucional de Bolsas de Iniciação Científica e o núcleo de empreendedorismo – e para a importância do uso de metodologias ativas e atividades extracurriculares apontada pelos estudantes. É, dessa forma, fundamental o apoio e incentivo para o desenvolver das atividades já existentes, bem como a inserção de novas iniciativas na área.
PERSPECTIVA DO PROTAGONISMO ESTUDANTIL POR ESTUDANTES DO CURSO DE SANEAMENTO DO IFPE – CAMPUS RECIFE
Authors: Fábio de Lima Ferreira Papais , Marnix Carlos de Vocht
Published: January 2021

Os Projetos Pedagógicos dos cursos de Saneamento do IFPE – campus Recife destacam entre seus objetivos específicos a formação de profissionais não apenas com conhecimentos técnicos e teóricos, mas com competências comportamentais, interpessoais e éticas. O protagonismo estudantil vem como alternativa aos modelos tradicionais de educação e desenvolvimento, quebrando as barreiras comuns entre os estudantes e os adultos, tornando-os agentes de seu próprio aprendizado. As atividades extracurriculares tendem a incentivar maior participação e engajamento discente, essenciais para a promoção do protagonismo estudantil; dessa forma, as principais atividades extracurriculares do campus foram mapeadas e utilizadas para o desenvolvimento de uma pesquisa aplicada, com abordagem quali-quantitativa, a partir da aplicação de um questionário enviado pela internet. Foram obtidas 37 respostas de estudantes de Saneamento e, a fim de auxílio e comparação, 439 respostas de discentes de todos cursos técnicos e superiores do campus. O questionário se concentrou em três principais aspectos relativos as atividades extracurriculares mapeadas: participação, acreditação (ou interesse) e estímulo. Com relação à participação, observou-se grande incongruência entre a maioria dos estudantes apresentarem alta aptidão a desenvolver novos projetos e os baixos índices de participação nas atividades extracurriculares, principalmente as atividades de pesquisa e extensão, que, junto com o ensino, constituem um dos principais eixos pedagógicos do IFPE. Quanto à acreditação ou interesse, em contraste com as atividades extracurriculares, a maioria dos estudantes consideraram os modelos tradicionais de ensino como os mais impactantes para o seu desenvolvimento acadêmico e pessoal. As respostas dos estudantes sobre o estímulo recebido para a participação nestas atividades extracurriculares mostraram que eles consideram o IFPE como Instituição estimuladora do protagonismo estudantil; mesmo assim, puderam indicar que carecem de maior incentivo dos professores ou até mesmo de baixa iniciativa pessoal entre os estudantes de Saneamento.

O relatório da situação global sobre prevenção da violência de 2014, reflete dados de 133 países, é o primeiro relatório a avaliar os esforços para enfrentar a violência interpessoal e aponta que anualmente, cerca de 950.000 mortes de crianças e adolescentes ocorrem no mundo, provocados por acidentes ou violência, além de outros milhões de ocorrências de sequelas decorrentes de lesões não fatais. Esse índice se manifesta sob diversas formas progressivas de agressão, culminando no resultado acima apresentado ou no mínimo, trazendo graves consequências no crescimento e desenvolvimento da vítima de violência. Diante do exposto e buscando compreender os sinais apresentados por crianças vítimas de agressão física no âmbito familiar, o presente estudo, teve por objetivo identificar os sinais de agressão física em crianças, e as políticas públicas específicas. Sendo uma revisão integrativa de literatura, ocorrendo em seis etapas: elaboração da pergunta norteadora, busca na literatura, coleta de dados, análise crítica dos estudos incluídos, discussão dos resultados e apresentação da revisão integrativa. Iniciou-se com a busca de artigos publicados entre 2015 e 2020, nas bases de dados: LILACS, SCIELO, MEDLINE e BVS, sendo os descritores: violência física, criança e políticas públicas. Na busca realizada foram apontados inicialmente 352 estudos, após a leitura exploratória dos resumos de cada um e verificação do enquadramento nos critérios deste estudo, foram selecionados apenas 6 artigos, após análise foram identificados os seguintes sinais de violência apresentados por crianças, apreensão e desconfiança ou apatia por parte da criança, sonolência em relação ao meio e às pessoas, dores e queixas psicossomáticas, comportamentos extremos como agressividade, destrutividade, timidez, passividade, submissão, irritabilidade frequente, choro excessivo ou desmotivação. Percorrendo as questões abordadas ao longo deste texto, a leitura dos artigos selecionados mostrou-se crucial para perceber os sinais da violência física contra a criança, como um fenômeno complexo que geralmente envolve familiares e pessoas próximas. Entender os sinais de violência física contra crianças pode ser extremamente interessante, tanto para o enfrentamento dos agravos, como na eleição destes eventos-sentinela para a situação de violência.

O presente trabalho se propõe a lançar um olhar crítico sobre a gestão desta ferramenta, a partir da ótica da gestão pública. Tem-se por objetivo geral: analisar o processo de gestão da Agenda Cultural de Olinda. Metodologicamente, buscou-se coletar informações do poder público municipal, representado pela diretoria de patrimônio e cultura e de turismo, a respeito da ferramenta, por meio de entrevistas. Para análise, utilizou-se a técnica de análise de conteúdo. A discussão fundamentou-se nas concepções acerca da administração de Chiavenato (2003) e Sobral e Peci (2008) e acerca da administração pública de Bresser-Pereira (1997), Gomes e Oliveira (2010), Motta (1979) e Secchi (2009). A partir da análise feita, foram identificados alguns gargalos no processo de gestão, que vão desde o seu planejamento ao seu controle, indicando que o processo de captação de informações para a agenda é deficitário, sua distribuição centrada em poucos canais e que não se tem um controle das métricas de sucesso. Além disso, observou-se que o engessamento dos procedimentos no setor público pode ter influência sobre o quadro enfrentado, tanto na entrega da Agenda Cultural como produto de promoção turística do destino, como também na dificuldade da relação entre a Prefeitura Municipal de Olinda e os agentes culturais da cidade, importantes stakeholders do processo de gestão.

For centuries, international politics was considered as an arena of the states. However, with the rise of the free-market economy, globalisation, international institutions and technology, many non-state actors such as international non-governmental organisations (INGOs) started sharing the power corridors along with the states. Contemporary academic literature cites many examples where INGOs has played important roles in decision-making processes. The flow of development aid from developed countries to the developing countries through INGOs has enhanced their role in international development. Similarly, many developing countries started outsourcing social services such as health and education to INGOs. International laws, on one hand, protect INGOs to mobilise additional financial resources from developed states. INGOs contributed to humanitarian diplomacy especially in climate change and banning landmines. INGOs also face some criticism in terms of poor accountability and legitimacy. Southern countries sometimes perceive INGOs as carriers and promoters of western liberal agenda.

Aging is a global demographic phenomenon. The Aging in Pakistan is a grave matter of concern which is neglected not only at state level but in research field too. This study focused to explore the relationship between disease profile and participation of older persons (OPs) in household decision making. A sample of 384 OPs was selected from Rawalpindi for data collection. Data were entered and analyzed in SPSS. Male participation was 70% and 30% of females. The findings of the research indicate 8.1% of cases of hypertension among older persons, heart problems were reported in 12.8% cases and 15.1% of the sample suffering from Diabetes. Cross-tabulation of data shows that the Pearson value is 32.552 and the calculated p-value is .000 [p<.05], this shows that a significant association prevails among household decision making of older persons and their disease profile with special reference to gender group. This also helps to conclude that active yet age bound involvement in household matters in old age is healthy for older persons.

Authors: Le Son Quang
Published: January 2021

ABSTRACT Literacy in mental health includes the ability to identify specific disorders; the ability to find information on mental health; awareness about risk factors and causes, available self-treatment and care; and attitudes which encourage identification and effective assistance. High school students, with solid yet inconsistent growth both physically and mentally, are a critical stage of development. In addition, most psychological disorders typically occur around the age of 14 years. However, few studies, especially in Vietnam, have considered the mental health literacy of high school learners. The goal of this research was to examine and analyze the mental health literacy of Vietnamese high school students. A cross-sectional study utilizing Mental Health Literacy Scale was conducted with 580 high school students. Vietnamese high school students did not have full understanding of mental health disorders despite their willingness to search for information about mental illness

Communication Culture as a Matrix for Graduate's “Soft Skills” Development
Authors: Chevtaeva N. G. , Nikitina A. S. , Vishnevskaya A. V.
Published: January 2021

The article examines the problem of broadcasting the communication culture from the system of education toward the labour market. The authors argue that communication model “teacher - student” acts as a matrix for communication model “employee - employer”. In this regard, such a resource as behavioral features of interaction, the communication culture between teacher and student requires special attention. The authors substantiate the thesis that “teacher - student” behavioral model is being reproduced by graduate in the relationship “employee - employer” and reflects “teacher-centric” communication model in the educational process.The authors have carried out a content analysis of the websites of employers in business structures and government organizations. The results confirm a clearly expressed demand for the communication skills of an employee. At the same time, an expert survey of recruiting specialists who assessed the level of communication skills of graduates majoring in economics and management showed a vivid disparity between free use of digital technologies (digital skills) and poor communication skills (soft skills).An analysis of the online questionnaire survey of teachers and students in the field of economics and management of nine Russian universities revealed barriers to the formation of “soft skills” of future graduates: inability to see the interests of the “Other”, the habit of pointing fingers instead of solving problems, the lack of client-oriented skills as well as willingness to take personal responsibility for the results of work. The authors outline the ways of restructuring the patterns of teacher and student behavior, which require them to adopt an educational paradigm based on a model of equal interaction of all participants (stakeholders) of educational process. This model will foster the development and mastering of “soft skills” of the future graduates.
