Authors: Ndhlovu Sheron , Rumbidzai Muzira Dumisani
Published: April 2023

The study sought to establish the influence of corporate governance on internet financial reporting in Malawi using the cross-sectional time horizon design. Sixteen companies listed under the Malawi Stock Exchange and forty registered limited companies that were operational but not on the Malawi Stock Exchange with a minimum of total assets of MWK 300,000,000.00 constituted the population. The sample was limited to 50 companies of which 43 had their financial reports available on the internet, which was the source of data. Content validity was achieved through consultation with experts in the field of accounting and financial reporting. Data was analyzed through multiple regression analysis using the SPSS Software. The study established that corporate governance mechanisms did not influence the timeliness of corporate Internet Financial Reporting. However, ownership structure positively influenced the corporation to engage in the Internet Financial Reporting. Furthermore, decision usefulness positively influenced the corporations to engage in the Internet Financial Reporting. Therefore, for the companies to engage in internet financial reporting, there is a need to ensure that decision usefulness is maximized. Furthermore, there is a need to ensure a maximized ownership structure for the organizations to keep engaging in the Internet Financial Reporting.

Published: April 2023

We are presenting the optimized price prediction of laptops in this paper using supervised machine learning techniques. The prediction precision is up to 81% in this research with the usage of the machine learning prediction method (multiple linear regression techniques). There are multiple independent variables when using multiple linear regressions but only one and single dependent variable, the actual value of the dependent variable is compared with the predicted value of the dependent variable to know and find result precision. This paper proposes a system where the price is the dependent variable which is predicted, and this price is predicted by taking some input values from the user like Company, Laptop type, RAM, Weight, Touch Screen, IPS, Screen Size, Resolution, CPU, ROM (HDD/SSD), GPU, Operating System. In today's world, everything is getting costly day by day, especially electronic things and people are not able to afford these costly things generally but we have an alternate option i.e., to buy an item with good research which belongs to their requirement in pocket-friendly range. So, this project is solving a research issue for the user and users can optimise the price of a Laptop. Artificial intelligence is advancing day by day so we take the help of AI to make our project more accurate. This project uses a statistical technique that uses two or more independent variables to predict the outcome of a dependent variable i.e. Multiple linear regressions and a regression Model provide a function that describes the relationship between one or more independent variables and a response, target variable. Machine Learning is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that allows software applications to become more accurate at predicting outcomes without being explicitly programmed to do so. Machine Learning algorithms use historical data as input to predict new output values.
МАНИПУЛАТИВНА МОЋ ДИСКУРСА ПОЛИТИЧКОГ СПОТА У ПРЕДИЗБОРНИМ КАМПАЊАМА

This paper explores the manipulative power of political video discourse in election campaigns from 2016 to 2020 by using critical discourse analysis and the cognitive linguistic theory of conceptual metaphors. The manipulative power of the discourse is revealed through micro and macro analysis during the studied period. The corpus of the research consists of videos used in election campaigns, television broadcasts, including the ones archived on the official YouTube channels. Since 1990, the year relevant for the onset of democratic elections, to this day, the sub-genre of a video within the advertising and propaganda genre in political discourse has been largely altered: thus, it is noted that it has abundantly been used in election campaigns since 2016, with more significant investments into production, becoming more diversified in terms of topics and content. These alterations are compliant with political objectives and shaped according to the manipulative and persuasive strategies which are the inherent component of the advertising and propaganda genre in general. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate all stylistic and linguistic means that have a manipulative nature. It has been demonstrated that persuasive and manipulative aims in this discourse are accomplished by using various conceptual metaphors, but also with vulgarization (the corpus contains a video where the sexual orientation of a candidate is topicalized), celebrity endorsements (prominent people appear as political candidate, promoters), and aggressive self-promotion.
GOVORNI ČINOVI KAO PRIMER MANIPULATORNE MOĆI REČI U GOVORU ALEKSANDRA VUČIĆA

The paper studies the manipulative power of language in political discourse, more precisely, in political speech. According to the classification of Mišić Ilić and Radulović (2015), which is based on the combination of Austin (1962) and Searle’s (2001) theories, commissives and expressives were studied in a speech given by Aleksandar Vučić, held in Kosovska Mitrovica on September 9, 2018. The aim of the paper is to show the power of language to manipulate the listener, through the strategic use of these two speech acts, which would illustrate an ideological contrast: concealing the speaker’s flaws, as well as their personal responsibility and involvement, while emphasizing the positive aspects of everything the speaker stands for. Speech acts are classified according to their explicit and implicit forms. The results show that implicit forms are more dominant, and at the same time they illustrate how the speaker dissociates from directly taking responsibility for the actions he commits to. Explicit forms, on the other hand, can only be interpreted in the wider context of the utterance, in which the speaker commits to taking insufficiently concrete action.
ОДНОС ИЗМЕЂУ ДЈЕЧЈЕ ТРАУМЕ И ЛИЧНОГ ИДЕНТИТЕТА: (НЕ)МОГУЋНОСТ ДОСТИЗАЊА СОПСТВА (МЛИЈЕЧНИ ЗУБИ, ЛАНА БАСТАШИЋ)

Published: April 2023

The collection of short stories Mliječni zubi (Decidious Teeth) by Lana Bastašić thematizes traumas during growing up in a patriarchal culture of violence, in which strength and irrational authorities (E. Fromm) are affirmed. A wide range of violence (both mental and phyxical) that parents and parental figures inflict on children, as well as the need to talk about children’s traumas in order to make their integration possible are the main topics in most of the short stories. In this context, fiction becomes a space within which a child, as the most powerless being, has the linguistic power to shape the traumatic contents of his consciousness into a coherent narrative in order to overcome them. Language is a key tool an acknowledging the victim’s experience which opposes the rigid patriarchal and religious discourse of power, based on unquestioning obedience to authorities. Hence, the power of language culminates in its ability to shed light on the victim’s horrible truth and to expand the boundaries of human experience through empathy with the Other.
КОНЦЕПТ ЈЕЗИКА У СРПСКИМ, ЕНГЛЕСКИМ И ФРАНЦУСКИМ ПОСЛОВИЦАМА

The paper presents an analysis of 65 proverbs (26 Serbian, 17 English, 22 French) which have been compared based on the main ideas about language and its functions in human interactions in three theories: Austin’s speech act theory (Ostin, 1994), Sperber and Wilson’s relevance theory (Sperber & Wilson, 1995), and the communication theory developed by Watzlawick and his collaborators (Watzlawick, Helmick Beavin, Jackson, 1972). The analysis shows that the proverbs in all three cultures express very similar or identical ideas about language as the three theories. The starting hypothesis that the popular view of language, as a result of experience and wisdom, corresponds to the theoretic pragmatic and communication principles, has been confirmed. Compared to the Austin’ speech act theory proverbs reveal the same view on language, as a powerful and performative instrument in human interaction which is to be used with care since it has the power to hurt others as well as to create friendship. The proverbs in all three cultures point out the importance of the nonverbal mode of communication. Many proverbs express the idea that behavior is as important as the utterances and stress the importance of silence in relations with others. They emphasize the importance of a man’s actions and deeds over words, ideas in accordance with the theory of communication developed by Watzlawick and his associates. Popular wisdom has defined the instructions for a good reception of the message and its acceptance as relevant. The clear formulation of the message and patient listening are advised in the proverbs and this idea is in accordance with the theory of relevance.

Published: April 2023

The Paper aims to look for aspects that influence a consumer's decision to acquire an electric vehicle. India has the greatest EV market in the world, particularly for two-wheelers. The penetration of electric vehicles has greatly increased over the past years as a result of numerous automakers releasing these vehicles at a quick rate. By 2025, the market for electric vehicles (EVs) is expected to be worth at least 475 billion, according to a recent study. By 2025, the percentage of electrified two-wheelers is predicted to increase to up to 15% from the current 1% penetration rate. Environmental pollution is currently a major problem worldwide. Toxic emissions from internal combustion engines are a major source of air pollution. The globe is actively promoting electric cars (EVs) to address environmental issues and counteract the consequences of fossil fuel pollution (ECs). The Indian government desires "only Electric Vehicles" to be on the roads by 2030.

This research paper investigates the level of awareness about investment opportunities among higher education students, with a focus on preferred investment options and awareness levels. The objectives of the study are threefold to identify different contemporary investment opportunities, to measure the level of awareness among higher education students, and to explore the highly preferred investment options among these students. To achieve these objectives, we conducted a survey of 101 higher education students to gather data about their investment preferences and levels of awareness about different investment opportunities. Our findings indicate that while the majority of students are aware of traditional investment opportunities such as real estate, stocks, and bonds, their awareness of newer investment opportunities such as cryptocurrencies and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) is low. Furthermore, we found that majority of the students are already aware of investment opportunities and their long-term goal is to being financially independent. This suggests that educational interventions could play a key role in improving financial literacy among higher education students. In conclusion, our study highlights the need for greater awareness and education about contemporary investment opportunities amongst higher education students. This research contributes to the literature on financial literacy and investment behavior among young adults, and has important implications for educators, policymakers, and financial service providers seeking to improve financial literacy and investment behaviour among this demographic.

Since the outbreak of COVID-19, online learning has become the innovation and an alternative virtual education adopted by universities, due to campus closures. The sudden adoption of the innovation without prior preparation and training causes the ineffective implementation of online learning in most institutions. Based on this description, insufficient information is available regarding the experiences of the student population, which are the most affected by online learning in higher education. Therefore, this study aims to explore the experiences of pre-service teachers regarding their numerous abilities to provide a good online learning program. Using a qualitative focus group study design, data were obtained through the focus group discussion (FGD) on 58 and 52 teachers, which were divided into 10 study groups during the first and final semesters. The results showed that both groups had similar and different experiences, regarding lecturers' ability to effectively perform online learning. According to the experience of the participants, the lecturers with pedagogical and social-personal skills were able to emphasize and encourage the attractiveness of online learning. In addition, some of the differences highly depended on the specific indicators of the two aspects. These results are expected to provide a framework for university lecturers and administrators, towards implementing the learning process.

Authors:   , Silva Láiza Maria Bendia da
Published: April 2023

O feijão-comum (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) é uma leguminosa importante social e economicamente para o Brasil. Os programas de melhoramento têm dedicado esforços no desenvolvimento de linhagens com adequados níveis de resistência a doenças, boa arquitetura, alta produtividade de grãos e grãos de elevado valor comercial. O objetivo deste trabalho foi identificar progênies endogâmicas de feijão do tipo carioca com potencial para derivar linhagens com alto desempenho agronômico utilizando como estratégia o índice FAI-BLUP. Foram avaliadas 38 progênies, provenientes das populações VC 25 x CVIII 8511 (população 1) e VC 25 x Pérola (população 2), e mais sete testemunhas. Quatro experimentos foram conduzidos na Unidade de Ensino, Pesquisa e Extensão de Coimbra (UEPE Coimbra – UFV) em diferentes safras/gerações (F 2:6, F 2:7, F 2:8 e F 2:9 ) e delineados em blocos casualizados, com 3 repetições. Foram avaliados arquitetura de planta (ARQ), produtividade de grãos (PROD), aspecto comercial de grãos (ACG), severidade de crestamento-bacteriano-comum (CBC) e mancha-angular (MA). Os dados foram analisados por meio da metodologia de modelos mistos. Para seleção das progênies superiores foi utilizado o índice de seleção FAI-BLUP (factor analysis and genotype-ideotype distance). O teste de razão de verossimilhança (LRT) indicou significância para o efeito de progênies sobre a maioria dos caracteres, com exceção de PROD (F 2:7 ), ACG (F 2:8 ) e ARQ (F 2:8 e F 2:9 ), o que indica variabilidade genotípica entre as progênies avaliadas. Para PROD, observou-se efeito significativo para a interação progênies x safras. Considerando todos os caracteres significativos avaliados nas várias safras, procedeu-se a seleção das 20 progênies mais bem classificadas, com base no índice FAI- BLUP. Entre as 20 progênies selecionadas, 10 foram derivadas da população 1 (VC 25 × CVIII 8511) e 10 da população 2 (VC 25 × Pérola). Conclui-se que o índice FAI-BLUP, por considerar múltiplos caracteres, gerações, ambientes e populações, se mostrou adequado como estratégia de seleção no melhoramento do feijoeiro, e que existem progênies com potencial para extração de linhagens elites de feijão carioca com destaque para as progênies 1 e 31 da população 1 e 23, 24 e 25 da população 2. Palavras-chave: Índice FAI-BLUP. Melhoramento de feijão. Estrutura de covariância.
Coordenação entre Políticas Fiscal e Monetária na União Econômica e Monetária Oeste Africana
Authors:   , Mohamed Abdoulaye Aboubacari
Published: April 2023

Foi desenvolvido um modelo DSGE da economia aberta para a União Econômica e Monetária Oeste Áfricana (UEMOA), usando a técnica de estimativa Bayesiana para o período de 1994: q3–2019: q1. O trabalho estudou as interações das políticas ﬁscal e monetária e seu papel na estabilização da economia da UEMOA, usando um modelo de pequena escala seguindo a metodologia descrita em Gali e Monacelli (2008). Embora existam muitas formulações possíveis da regra de Taylor (1993), examina-se duas que usam diferentes medidas de atividade econômica, às quais o Banco Central dos Estados da África de Oeste (BCEAO) pode responder; essas são, o hiato do produto e a taxa de crescimento do PIB. O objetivo é descobrir, com a coordenação das políticas ﬁscal e monetária, o modelo que melhor contribui para a estabilidade da economia da União. As características gerais do modelo podem ser resumidas como um modelo de um continuum de pequenas economias abertas com microfundamentos analíticas e dinâmicas de países em desenvolvimento, rigidez de preços nominais do estilo Calvo (1983) e mercados de ativos internacionais abrangentes. As estimativas dos parâmetros mostram que a autoridade monetária reage à inﬂação em ambos os modelos de acordo com a regra proposta por Leeper (1991). A autoridade monetária participa melhor na estabilização do hiato do produto em ambos os modelos, mas o peso da estabilidade do hiato do produto é maior no modelo com a taxa de crescimento do PIB. O grau de suavização da taxa de juros é considerável em ambos os modelos. A política ﬁscal ajudou a estabilizar a dívida em ambos os modelos, e, ainda, o peso da estabilidade da dívida é maior no modelo com a taxa de crescimento do PIB. Uma estabilização ﬁscal ativa do hiato do produto não foi encontrada no modelo sem a taxa de crescimento do PIB, mas uma estabilidade do hiato do produto pela autoridade ﬁscal foi encontrada no modelo com a taxa de crescimento do PIB. Além dos resultados das estimativas, os resultados dos choques positivos decorrentes da tecnológica e das políticas ﬁscal e monetária foram consistentes. Descobriu-se que um choque tecnológico positivo tem um impacto maior com a presença da taxa de crescimento de longo prazo e as políticas de gastos do governo são mais eﬁcazes. As políticas ﬁscal e monetária interagem entre si e com outras variáveis macroeconômicas. A inﬂação responde a choques de política ﬁscal na forma de gastos do governo e impostos do governo. As decisões das autoridades monetárias também afetam as variáveis de política ﬁscal. Também está claro que a disciplina ﬁscal é essencial para a formulação e execução eﬁcazes da política monetária. Conclui-se que o modelo sem a taxa de crescimento do PIB na regra de Taylor desempenha um papel melhor na estabilidade da economia. Palavras-chave: Coordenação Monetária-Fiscal. Estabilidade econômica. Inﬂação. Hiato do produto. DSGE. UEMOA.
Betting Menace: Riddle of Television Advertising and University Students Betting Behaviour
Authors: Oduor Nicholas , Mberia Hellen , Ndavula John
Published: April 2023

Purpose: To establish the influence of television’s testimonial advertisement technique on sports betting among the university students in Kenya.

Methodology: The study used a mixed method design.  In this case a convergent parallel mixed methods design was used to ascertain the relationship between testimonial advertising and sports betting among the university students in Kenya. Piloting was done to check on validity and reliability of the data collected. This was then followed by data collection where the collected data was subjected to diagnostic test to check if the data were normally distributed.  Descriptive survey and inferential statistics were used in the analysis. The regression model was used to find out the correlation between testimonial advertising technique and sports betting among university students in Kenya.

Findings: This study found out that there was a positive influence of testimonial advertising on sports betting among university students in Kenya.

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: This study was grounded on elaboration likelihood model (ELM). This model was developed by Petty et al. (1983). The core assumption of the model is that in communication, there are two routes namely; central route and peripheral route (Petty and Cacioppo, 1986). The study thus recommends that proper policies should be enacted to regulate betting advertisements in Kenya. On its contribution to practice, the study calls on the universities to come up with alternative activities that the students can engage in during leisure time to prevent them from sports betting. In addition, policy makers should consider implementing laws to control betting activities in the country. Consequently, the advertisers should remind the public that betting can be additive thus they should bet responsively.

Published: April 2023

Este breve estudo foi desenvolvido com o intuito de abrir uma breve discussão acerca da formação de professores indígenas que fazem parte da sociedade Xavante, tendo em vista as suas indigências Educacionais e os indivíduos desta comunidade, os quais deixam as aldeias a procura de formação em escolas situadas em Mato Grosso, Brasil. Citar-se-á, o curso de Letras, ofertado pela Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso, o qual, na opinião dos autores deste estudo, não oferta uma formação  que contemple as indigências de tal público, contudo, sabe-se que o problema não se encosta no próprio curso, ou mesmo na Universidade, mas sim, na carência de vontade do Governo para com esta questão. Assim, por meio deste estudo e de uma pesquisa de cunho bibliográfico, compreendeu-se que a Educação voltada para o público dos povos  indígenas foi pautada, no decorrer da história do Brasil, por acepções que envolvem o subjugar as dessemelhanças culturais, impondo-se, com isso, a “civilização”. Entretanto, por meio dos movimentos sociais principiados na década de 70, como também por meio da Carta Magna, datada de 1988, os direitos indígenas passaram a ser afiançados por lei. Desta forma, entende-se que, para além do indígena que necessita compreender a língua falada no espaço educacional urbano, buscando tanto interagir com seus pares como também evoluir nos estudos, necessecita-se que os futuros professores indígenas tenham algum padrão de preparo para receber seus alunos em sala de aula, de maneira que se valorize o padrão de experiências  vivenciada pelos indígenas.

Published: April 2023

Por meio deste estudo, exibe-se um trabalho provindo de uma pesquisa de caráter bibliográfico, com o a qual se externa desígnios que envolvem o pensamento acerca do método de escolarização indígena, como também acerca de toda a importância que enreda a formação exclusiva do professor indígena, compreendendo-se que tal formação deve estar realmente voltada para a preparação deste profissional para sua atuação neste panorama. Busca-se ainda, salientar, mesmo que brevemente, a indigência deste profissional a partir do momento em que se busca um ensino de cunho tanto intercultural, quanto bilíngue e mais qualificado ao povo indígena. Perante isso, descobre-se, por meio de estudos, que a Educação escolar indígena, no decorrer dos séculos, passou por um método de integração no meio educacional, como também que, a partir de 1988, por meio da promulgação da Constituição Federal, tal população passou a ter seus direitos afiançados pela lei. Desta forma, estando agora conexo à Educação, compreende-se ser imprescindível existir formação inicial e continuada voltada para os professores indígenas, buscando-se, com isso, que haja o fortalecimento da Educação e da identidade desse povo.
Understanding the Potential Impact of Climate Change on Hydropower Generation in Rwanda
Authors: Eustache Hakizimana , Wali Umaru Garba , Venant Kayibanda
Published: April 2023

The primary energy sources used in Rwanda include solar energy, methane gas, diesel and heavy oil generators, hydropower plants, and thermal power plants. Hydropower is a significant renewable low-carbon energy source, generates more than 45% of Rwanda's total electricity. It requires water to produce energy, therefore any modifications to the natural hydrological cycle brought on by climate change have an impact and will continue to have an influence on the production of electricity. Hydropower is sorrow from an increase in extreme weather occurrences and erosion. Therefore, by altering flow (discharge) and head, climate change may have an effect on hydropower. The amount of sediment that is transferred to the reservoir lowers its capacity, and the dry season may result in less water in the reservoir, which has an impact on the hydroelectric power generation process. According to the study, changes in river flow have the greatest impact on how hydropower is affected by climate change. Droughts, seasonal and frequent floods, and greater variability due to climate change are the main contributors. The results show that climate change is likely to have a more pronounced impact on hydropower operations, with reductions in water availability due to climate change expected to result in reduced power generation. Additionally, existing dams will be located in areas at high risk of flooding due to climate change.   In order to ensure electricity availability throughout the year, especially during the hot or dry seasons when discharges are often low, the required changes should be performed. These adjustments include using alternate backup sources and storage systems. Water consumers can be conserved and optimized through water resource management, drought resistance, flood protection, and conservation.

Image mosaicing is a technique for combining many images of the same scene to generate a larger, seamless panoramic image. Image mosaicing can be traced back to the days of manually piecing images. Image-mosaicing techniques have been created to automate the process since the introduction of computer technology. The method consists of five phases, including feature matching and estimation of the homography matrix. Image mosaicing is commonly used in virtual tourism, video games, and photo editing. Despite the fact that the image panoramic feature is accessible in digital cameras, there is still potential for improvement, and more research in this sector is required.

Published: April 2023

Exams are getting digitized all over the world. Basically, meaning that the traditional paper-based tests are being replaced by the certain computer-based tests which have proven to be both more consistent in allocating marks and faster than teacher correcting papers. The traditional exams usually consisted of subjective answers which were not the best way of grading the student’s perception of the subject. Hence, we are developing a computer-based system that will generate MCQ based question that will be better suited to grade students academically. So, Incremental Question Paper Generator (IQPG) is an attempt at developing a software which can implement adaptive evaluation along with generation of questions on its own. The software aims to generate an increasingly difficult or easy in simpler words, it aims to generate a question paper which dynamically changes the difficulty of its questions. Along the same the software generates these questions by learning from a pre-made dataset of questions.

Published: April 2023

The medicine recommendation system is intended to suggest alternative medicines based on the cosine similarity between a patient's symptoms and the effects of various medications. The system makes use of a database of medications and their indications, as well as a list of symptoms that a patient may exhibit. It vectorizes the data, applies filters, and makes suggestions. Medicines with a higher cosine similarity are considered more relevant and recommended to patients. In the scenario of a medical emergency, when physicians or prescribed medications are unavailable, this recommender serves as a valuable resource. The proposed medicine recommendation system has the potential to help healthcare professionals and patients make educated decisions about alternative medications. The system can reduce the risk of adverse drug reactions and improve patient outcomes by suggesting alternative medicines that are more effective and have fewer side effects. Overall, the proposed medicine recommendation system has the potential to significantly improve patient care by making effective recommendations for alternative medications. It can also reduce healthcare professionals’ workload by automating the process of identifying.
