Published: June 2024

The aim of this research is to determine the influence of Organizational Culture (X) on the Performance of Non-Permanent Employees (Y). The total number of respondents was 52 respondents. The analysis used in this research is simple regression analysis. The results of the validity coefficient for the 14 statement items are 14 valid items and 0 are invalid so it can be concluded that the 14 statement items are valid as a measuring tool because they have rcount > rtable, namely 0.2732. The results of the researcher's reliability variable calculations can be concluded that all statement items are reliable as measuring tools because the Cronbach's alpha value is 0.900 > 0.60. This simple linear regression can be explained as follows: A constant of 2.231 means that the performance of non-permanent employees at the Paser Regency Public Works and Spatial Planning Service will remain at 2.279 if (X) the cultural factor remains constant or there is no change. Based on the research results, it is known that the R value is 0.717 or 71.7%, this means that there is a strong relationship between the Organizational Culture variable (X) and the employee performance variable (Y), while the coefficient of determination is 0.514 or 51.4%, meaning the performance variable employees (Y) are explained by the organizational culture variable (X), amounting to 51.4% while the remaining 48.6% is explained by other variables not included in this research. From the t test results of the organizational culture factor (x), the calculated t value is 7.278 > t table of 2.00856, which means that the organizational culture factor (x) influences employee performance at the Paser Regency Public Works and Spatial Planning Service with a significant level of 0.000 < 0 .05. So it can be concluded that the hypothesis can be accepted or H0 is rejected and Ha is accepted, because the organizational culture factor (x) has a strong influence on employee performance at the Paser Regency Public Works and Spatial Planning Service.

Housing Policy in Lithuania: A Qualitative Study of Social Housing Problems
Authors: Aidukaitė Jolanta
Published: June 2024

This article aims to examine the Lithuanian housing policy system, with a special emphasis on social housing issues. This study is based on 20 semi-structured interviews with the decision makers and recipients of social housing. The analysis reveals the issues related to access to social housing, management and administration issues, problems related to stigmatisation of social housing recipients, and their overall satisfaction with the provided support.The study shows that accessing social housing and living in social housing is not an easy task. Social housing recipients have to wait in queues for a long time, experience stigmatisation and constant fear that they may lose their social housing due to a strict income monitoring. On the other hand, the municipality tries to provide friendly strategies to solve individual cases and looks for the best solutions possible to meet the needs of social housing recipients. The findings show that massive privatisation in Lithuania created a dualistic housing market favouring home ownership and marginalising social housing as a safety net for the most vulnerable people. At the same time, a massive home ownership society formed a safety net for many, with family ties playing a crucial role. Housing safety is offered as a part of social assistance programs for the most vulnerable parts of the population.

Causal Model of Factors Influencing Adherence to Standard Precautions Practices Among Chinese Emergency Nurses: A Cross-sectional Study
Authors: Huang Yanfang , Lertwatthanawilat Wanchai , Klunklin Pimpaporn , Unahalekhaka Akeau
Published: June 2024

Standard precautions are essential to prevent cross-infections among emergency nurses, particularly during a pandemic of infectious diseases. However, poor adherence to such standard precautions is an ongoing global health system problem. This may be due to nurses’ lack of adequate understanding regarding the influencing mechanisms of various factors that cause cross-infection in practice. In this cross-sectional study, we rigorously utilized the Theory of Planned Behaviors as a guiding framework to develop and test a causal model of factors influencing adherence to standard precautions practices among Chinese emergency nurses. From July 2022 to February 2023, purposive sampling was used to recruit 310 emergency nurses from eight tertiary hospitals in four cities in Sichuan Province, China, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Research instruments included a Demographic Data Form, the Standard Precautions Questionnaire, the Leading Culture of Quality in Infection Prevention Scale, and the Compliance with Standard Precautions Scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Analysis of Moment Structure program to test the influencing factors.
The final model of factors influencing adherence to standard precautions practices among Chinese emergency nurses explained 36% of the variance. This model provides a practical tool for understanding and improving adherence to standard precautions. Infection prevention climate and intention can affect adherence practices directly. In addition, nurses’ attitudes to standard precautions, social norms of standard precautions, perceived behavioral control of standard precautions, and infection prevention climate indirectly affected adherence practices through intention as the mediator. Among these factors, infection prevention climate had the most substantial effect on adherence practices. These findings underscore the pivotal role of nursing administrators in highlighting the remarkable benefits of standard precautions, shaping emergency nurses’ positive attitudes and confidence toward standard precautions, and creating a supportive climate for infection control. By implementing these strategies, nursing administrators can significantly improve adherence to standard precautions, ensuring a safer healthcare environment for workers, patients, and the public.

ГЕНОДЕРМАТОЗДАР: ЖІКТЕЛУІ ЖӘНЕ ОЛАРДЫҢ ЕРЕКШЕЛІКТЕРІ
Authors: Камалова Д.Б.
Published: June 2024

Генодерматозы - это наследственные заболевания, которые проявляются на коже. Некоторые из этих заболеваний встречаются редко. Однако, распознавание кожных проявлений генодерматозов важно не только для начала соответствующей терапии, но и для обнаружения других сопутствующих аномалий, включая злокачественные новообразования. Генодерматозы представляют собой большую группу заболеваний, включающую несколько сотен форм. Кожные поражения могут быть единственным проявлением заболевания, но чаще они сочетаются с нарушениями других систем органов. Генодерматозы связаны с повышенным риском развития злокачественных новообразований, поэтому раннее выявление наследственной патологии является важным для профилактики онкологических заболеваний. Цель данного обзора - анализ генодерматозов, их дерматологических проявлений и генетической природы. Для этого был проведен обзор актуальной литературы, научных публикаций и медицинских баз данных за последние 5 лет. В результате обзора были выделены несколько нозологических групп генодерматозов, включающих различные заболевания с соответствующими клиническими признаками. Разнообразие клинических проявлений этих наследственных заболеваний означает, что важно уделять внимание не только общим принципам лечения, но также и различиям в клинической картине и подходящем лечении для конкретных подгрупп генодерматозов.

Genodermatoses are inherited diseases that show up on the skin. Some of these diseases are rare. However, recognising the cutaneous manifestations of genodermatoses is important not only to initiate appropriate therapy but also to detect other associated abnormalities, including malignancies. The genodermatoses are a large group of diseases comprising several hundred forms. Cutaneous lesions may be the only manifestation of the disease, but more often they are combined with disorders of other organ systems. Genodermatoses are associated with an increased risk of malignant neoplasms, so early detection of hereditary pathology is important for cancer prevention. The aim of this review is to analyse genodermatoses, their dermatological manifestations and genetic nature. For this purpose, a review of current literature, scientific publications and medical databases for the last 5 years was performed. As a result of the review, several nosological groups of genodermatoses were identified, including various diseases with corresponding clinical features. The diversity of clinical manifestations of these inherited diseases means that it is important to pay attention not only to the general principles of treatment, but also to the differences in clinical presentation and appropriate treatment for specific subgroups of genodermatoses.

Real world ambulatory boundary effect within MTL oscillation during movement in human brains
Authors: Wu Siwei
Published: June 2024

Through daily life, complex tasks require the neural encoding of spatial location for oneself and others. Previous research studies in rodents have shown that rodents have neural representations of themselves in addition to other rodents. ( Ovchinnikov, 2010) However, there is still a need to understand how the human brain processes spatial location for itself and others. Furthermore, it is important to research which parts of human cognition can affect location encoding mechanisms. The current study uses existing data to determine the correlation between environmental boundaries and human brain activity. Using spatial observation and navigation tasks, the study investigated whether a physical boundary can affect neural encoding using implanted electrodes, representing the participants’ location and others’ location while in a closed environment. Results showed that representations were strengthened when the encoding of location had a greater behavioral significance and was contingent upon the momentary cognitive state of the individual.Together, these findings support the existence of a shared encoding mechanism within the human brain that signifies the whereabouts of both individuals in communal settings. Moreover, they illuminate novel insights into the neural processes that govern spatial navigation and the perception of others in practical situations.

Research about Sensibility of Local Literature between Chinese Mainland and Taiwan in the 1980s
Authors: Lin Xiangjin
Published: June 2024

A significant genre in Chinese literary history is local literature. It has been a recurring theme ever since it first appeared. Being the pioneer of regional literature, Lu Xun’s writings are pieces in which he describes his home environment while feeling homesick, allowing him to live elsewhere. Following decades of growth, local literature has persisted in producing unique works based on Lu Xun. Many experts specializing in rural literature have emerged with changing connotations and ideologies. During the 1980s and 1990s, mainland China was represented by authors such as Jia Pingwa and Wang Zengqi. Representative writers from Taiwan include Lin Qingxuan. This article examines the similarities and differences between Mr. Wang Zengqi’s “Ordination” and Mr. Lin Qingxuan’s “Flying into Miscanthus “ about language, folklore, and the natural environment. Through a comparative examination, one may observe that the emotional support depicted in mainland and Taiwanese local literature follows a similar trend across historical periods—from hometown to spiritual home—before evolving into emotional fulfillment.

In recent years, eletroencephalography(EEG)-based neurofeedback therapy has become a research hotspot, but it still has its limitations. Therefore, it is of great significance to explore new brain-computer interface(BCI) neurofeedback technology for the treatment of ADHD. The purpose of this study was to explore the application status and prospect of BCI neurofeedback technology in the treatment of ADHD through a literature review and case analysis. The research progress of BCI neurofeedback technology in the treatment of ADHD was systematically reviewed, and its efficacy and safety were evaluated. In this study, relevant literature was collected at home and abroad to sort out the principle, technical implementation, and application of BCI neurofeedback technology in the treatment of ADHD. Subsequently, combined with specific cases, the actual effect of this technology in the treatment of ADHD was analyzed. BCI interface neurofeedback technology has shown good application prospects in the treatment of ADHD, and its non-drug and non-invasive characteristics help to reduce the side effects of traditional treatments. However, the technology is still in the development stage, and further research and optimization are needed to improve efficacy and popularity.
Factors influencing Chinese students’ higher education choices
Authors: Gu Junzhe
Published: June 2024

While Chinese students now have a variety of pathways to higher education, research on individual Chinese students continues to rely on statistical forms of questionnaires, making it challenging to understand international students individually and examine their choices through several detailed influences. Few studies have been carried out that are more detailed and specific to Chinese students. It is, therefore, worth exploring how students from different walks of life make their higher education choices and the factors that influence them in greater depth. This paper reports the results of a comparative study of five Chinese students with different higher education choices using semi-structured interviews. The author will control for the influences of each interviewee to conclude. The paper also explores the experiences and considerations of several Chinese students in their choice of higher education. The paper argue that Chinese students’ choices are significantly related to both family circumstances and personal ability, with family social class and the educational attainment of the student’s parents having a significant impact on Chinese students’ higher education choices. In addition, the individual student’s strengths of thought and ability also contribute to their own decisions in higher education.
Research on the construction of genealogical archives management system
Authors: Yin Simin
Published: June 2024

Genealogical archives possess significant historical and cultural importance. Nevertheless, Chinese genealogical archives suffered significant damage during the Cultural Revolution. In recent years, there has been a gradual resurgence of the Chinese clan culture, with many individuals endeavoring to reconstruct their genealogical records. However, challenges persist in the process of folk genealogical reconstruction, including the informal methods of information collection and reliance on a single source of information, both of which can compromise the reliability of genealogical archives. The aforementioned issues pose challenges for individuals seeking to trace their lineage through genealogical records, thereby impeding the resurgence of clan culture. Hence, it is crucial to implement a systematic management system for genealogical archives, ensuring comprehensive planning and administration to preserve genealogical records and foster the advancement of clan culture. The establishment of a sophisticated management system for genealogical archives can contribute to the creation of a collective societal memory, foster economic development, and bolster the credibility of genealogical records by facilitating cross-verification between official and private repositories. This, in turn, lays a robust groundwork for scholarly investigations in the realms of history and sociology.
An Analysis of Societal Propaganda and Practical Strategies Guided by the Popularization of Green Building Concepts
Authors: Wei Shaocong
Published: June 2024

. The article discusses the global trend towards green building practices driven by the increasing environmental challenges posed by human activities. It outlines the key characteristics of green buildings, such as energy efficiency, resource recycling, and indoor environmental quality. Developed countries have made significant strides in green building standards and certifications, including BREEAM in the UK, LEED in the US, and CASBEE in Japan. However, China's progress in green building has been slower due to various challenges such as insufficient policy support and low awareness. To address these challenges, the article proposes utilizing psychological theories to promote green building concepts in China, drawing parallels with successful initiatives like garbage classification. By leveraging spillover effects, cognitive dissonance, self-perception, and social diffusion theories, targeted propaganda strategies can be developed to raise awareness and drive the widespread adoption of green building practices in China. Such efforts are crucial for achieving sustainable development goals and improving the quality of life for residents while mitigating environmental impacts.
A Comparative Analysis on the Diasporic Narrations in Lee Yung Ping’s “The End of the River” and Chang Kuei Hsing’s “Wild Boars Cross the River”
Authors: Zhang Yiqi
Published: June 2024

Lee Yung Ping and Chang Kuei Hsing are both renowned worldwide Chinese writers in Malaysia. They share several significant common points: being born in Sarawak, having a close relationship with Taiwan, persevering in writing in the Chinese language, etc. The narrative backgrounds of The End of the River and Wild Boars Cross the River are contemporaneous and geographically proximate. Both authors employ a forthright approach in exposing historical traumas and vehemently criticize the atrocities committed by aggressors. However, starkly contrasting authorial attitudes lie beneath the veneer of shared thematic concerns. Lee Yung Ping’s portrayal of historical wounds adopts a tangible quality, earnestly endeavoring to articulate the ineffable and yearning for a form of “poetic justice.”In contrast, Chang Kuei Hsing’s depiction of wounds is more elusive, with the novel’s narrative structure unfolding in a non-linear fashion, beginning after its conclusion and ending before its commencement. This temporal distortion suggests a deeper existential struggle, transcending the confines of narrative and text, ultimately rendering each endeavor futile. This article briefly compares the two novels’ different narrations to investigate the connotations that exhibit the two authors’ nuanced attitudes towards their virtually and poetically sophisticated “homeland”. Therefore, their distinctive emotional pursuits for seeking homeland are explored, concluding that Lee’s diasporic perceptions of homeland are featured with reconciliation after experiencing turmoils in his early life, while the unforeseeable future of his community still shackles Chang’s perceptions.
