Authors: Ullah Muhammad Asad
Published: December 2024

T
To understand the relationship between self-efficacy and the commitment of academicians, research is gaining momentum among researchers across the globe to investigate various aspects of positive psychology, which studies human positive behavioral attributes for example, hope, optimism, self-esteem, and self-efficacy. Similarly, organizational commitment represents significant organizational behavior, which discusses the bond between employees and with organization by explaining the stabilities including beliefs and attitudes as well as the behavior that encompasses the behavioral adoptions and indicates a refusal of reasonable alternate options of achievement. Thus, studying the relationships between self-efficacy of the academicians with organizational commitment is an instrumental area of study that demands more study in the background of developing countries. The study will provide insight for academicians, researchers, and practitioners to understand the issue comprehensively and resolve it in the best trajectory to enhance their commitment which will lead to enhanced performance.  The shortcoming of the study was not resolved due to time and financial constraints, hence it was conducted will a small sample size, future researchers could get a better view if a study with a large sample size is conducted.

Authors: Muhammad Ahtisham Ul Haq  , Hiba Aziz  , Abdus Sami
Published: December 2024

Entamoeba histolytica is highly abundant worldwide because of unsanitary conditions and dietary practices. The study was conducted with the aim of the prevalence of entamoeba histolytica in the human population in the district of Dera Ismail Khan Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. We surveyed patients admitted to the District Headquarters Hospital in Dera Ismail Khan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, to find out what percentage of patients had E. histolytica. The study recorded that the total incidence of E. histolytica was 22.8%. Compared to females (22.2%), males were more prone (23.8%). Data by age showed that those between the ages of 6 and 10 (27.8%) had the highest age group and those over 30 (5.5%) had the lowest. Month-by-month, February had the lowest prevalence (12.5%), and July had the highest (20.8%). Slightly more sensitive were males (23.8%) than females (22.2%). The age-wise statistic was lowest in those 30 and over years (5.5%) and greatest in the age range between 6 and 10 years (27.8%). Month by month, February (12.5%) had the lower prevalence, and July (20.8%) was the greatest. When the Entamoeba histolytica parasite finds an ideal habitat and host, it can re-emerge as a dangerous illness. There needs to be an E. histolytica vaccine right now to keep people from getting the very bad disease that Entamoeba histolytica causes. Furthermore, it is imperative to suggest measures aimed at enhancing the ecosystem and preserving the general ecology to actively avoid and manage the spread of E. histolytica. Additionally, monitoring and treating air pollutant concentration, temperature, rainfall, and other climate change variables in Dera Ismail Khan should also be prioritized. The study is conducted in only one city, yet future researchers need to undertake it at a large scale with a large sample size throughout the country.
The Hidden Cost of Fitting In: Camouflaging in High-Pressure Healthcare
Authors: Sania Nawaz  , Dr. Muqadas Zahra  , Muhammad Fiaz
Published: December 2024

The current study explores if, and how, camouflaging is related to interpersonal functioning among healthcare providers in a high-stakes clinical context. Camouflaging is a process that many people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) tend to do, where we mask or camouflage our autistic characteristics to fit into what is deemed socially acceptable by neurotypical. Even though camouflaging might make professional experiences slightly easier, such shining armor leaves a mental health wake of exhaustion, anxiety, and depression. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data from a sample population of 236 medical professionals (positivist research approach). Central to findings are a robust relationship between camouflaging and both interpersonal functioning and mental health outcomes over time. The results emphasize the importance of creating a culture in health organizations conducive to professionals with neurodiversity, normalizing esoteric illness experiences, and allowing space for the multiplicity of meaning inherent to being human. Implementing neurodiversity initiatives can boost employee health, interrelations, and patient care in healthcare organizations. The study is beneficial for healthcare academicians and practitioners to understand the severity of the issue and to devise ways and means to eradicate this menace. However, the results of this study could not be comprehensive in the sense that it was conducted with a very limited sample, while future studies need to use a large sample size to generalize the results. It is hereby suggested that in future studies could be conducted in different regions throughout the country.

The study aimed to assess the rate of cesarean section and to analyse the risk factors contributing to C-sections to introduce measures to check unwanted, non-medical reasons to go for a C-section. The study was retrospectively conducted at Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zaid Hospital Rawlakot Azad Kashmir on 5226 normal deliveries and 1604 C-sections. The rate was found to be 30.6%, more than the recommended rate by WHO (10-15 %). The major contributing factor was the previous scar (41.6%). The most prevalent indications were foetal distress (14%), older age more than 35 years (6 %), obstructed labour (1.9 %), failed IOL (1.6 %), failure of progress of labour (1.8 %), multiple pregnancies (1.74 %), PIH (0.99 %), meconium aspiration (1.62 %), placental problems (1.8 %), only one patient (0.06 %) requested for elective caesarean and other risk factors were also seen (18 %) in aggregate. The study concluded that at SKBZ hospital C-sections were overused. The study was conducted with a limited sample size only in one high-standard hospital in Rawalakot Azad Jammu and Kashmir, where the demographic characteristics of the patients were almost similar. Yet, it will be better to repeat the same kind of study in other hospitals of the AJK with larger sample sizes and with varying population characteristics and facilities, including populations from both the urban as well as from rural areas to get a clear understanding based on these differences to and generalize the results. The findings of this study will contribute to theory and practice and will be helpful to the government functionaries in healthcare planning.

Published: December 2024

This study examines the significance of the Agricultural Credit Guarantee Scheme (ACGS) funds in improving agricultural performance in Nigeria. The study uses descriptive statistics and trend analysis to analyze the relationship between ACGS funds and agricultural output in Nigeria, assessing its impact on crop production, livestock, and fishery sectors. The study utilized a quantitative research design to investigate the effect of agricultural credit guarantee scheme funds on agrarian performance in Nigeria. Time series data spanning a period of 41 years (1981-2021) was collected from secondary sources, specifically the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) and the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN). The data collected included variables such as gross domestic product (GDP) as a proxy for agricultural performance and the total volume and number of loans issued for cash crops, food crops, and mixed farming as proxies for ACGSF disbursements. This study's findings revealed that Nigeria's Agricultural Credit Guarantee Scheme Fund (ACGSF) has had a significant impact on the agriculture sector, particularly in livestock, crops, and fisheries. The fund experienced a low level of funding before 1999 but increased significantly after the advent of democracy, focusing on agriculture. Livestock and crop production had the highest loan guarantee funding in 2014, while fisheries peaked in 2009. Using the Augmented Dickey-Fuller approach, all variables were found to be stationary at the levels, and some were found to be stationary at the first difference. None of the variables were stationary at the second difference. The estimated F-ratios for Livestock, Crop, and Fishery were 49.71, 190.38, and 122.45, respectively, indicating that the agricultural credit guarantee significantly influences all sectors' output. The adjusted R2 values for Livestock, Crop, and Fishery were 82.97%, 94.67%, and 75.69%, respectively, indicating a good fit for the regression models. The regression results reveal a positive relationship between the GDP of Livestock and cattle and other livestock, with other livestock being significant at the 1% level. The GDP of Fishery also shows a positive significant relationship with ACGSF Fishery. The recommendation is to increase investment in livestock, crop, and fishery sectors to diversify the economy, improve GDP, and reduce dependency on other countries. Loans should be available to qualified individuals as soon as due by participating banks, and more funds should be made available to cash crops and other sectors to earn more foreign exchange. Increased publicity about the scheme is recommended.

Authors: Pratiwi Merina , Syarief Amiroel  Oemara
Published: December 2024

The quality of fishery products is a critical factor influencing competitiveness and market acceptance, particularly for the fishery industry in Dumai City. However, assessing fishery product quality remains challenging, primarily due to the subjective nature of organoleptic testing, which is often influenced by variability in panelists' evaluations. This subjectivity can lead to inconsistencies in assessment results and reduce the reliability of quality evaluations. This study aims to optimize the quality assessment of fishery products by applying discriminant analysis, a multivariate analysis method based on organoleptic testing. We conducted the organoleptic test by evaluating six key sensory parameters: appearance, odor, taste, texture, mold presence, and slime. This approach seeks to minimize subjectivity in assessments and enhance the objectivity of results. The fishery product samples tested included a variety of local products, such as smoked catfish, shrimp paste, smoked patin fish, shrimp crackers, salted tonguefish, fish crackers, swordfish nuggets, patin nuggets, swordfish meatballs, catfish meatballs, and patin meatballs. Evaluations were conducted by trained panelists with the support of digital tools to improve the consistency and accuracy of results. The discriminant analysis results indicated that the model could classify product quality with an accuracy of up to 83.3%. Taste was identified as the most significant sensory factor in distinguishing high-quality products from lower-quality ones.

Authors: Aini Ihdi , Sugianto Sugianto , Marliyah Marliyah

This study aims to explore risk management in wealth protection from the perspective of Islamic economics. The main issue is how Islamic economics provides sustainable risk management solutions that align with Sharia principles for safeguarding individual and collective wealth. The scope of this research includes relevant Islamic economic concepts, mechanisms, and instruments for wealth protection, such as zakat, waqf, and takaful. The research method used is qualitative descriptive with a library research approach, where data is collected from various sources such as scientific journals, books, and reports related to Islamic economics and risk management. The data analyzed included Islamic economic theories from experts such as Al-Ghazali and Ibn Khaldun and contemporary concepts related to Sharia risk management. The results show that risk management in Islamic economics aims not only to protect wealth but also to ensure social balance and the distribution of economic justice. An interesting finding from this study is the application of instruments such as zakat and waqf that can effectively reduce people's financial risks, help redistribute wealth, and create economic resilience. In addition, the concept of takaful as Sharia-based insurance also plays a role in mitigating individual financial risks fairly and transparently. The implications of this study reinforce the importance of integrating Sharia principles into economic policy to achieve long-term financial sustainability and stability.

Al-Qur'an-based learning has an important role in forming students' spiritual literacy from an early age, especially in the modern era. This spiritual literacy includes the ability to understand, internalize, and practice the values ​​of the Al-Qur’an in everyday life. This research aims to measure the effectiveness of Al-Qur'an-based learning in improving students' cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Tarbiyatul Athfal. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method with a survey approach. Data was collected through interviews, observations, and tests on students. Data analysis techniques involve simple statistical calculations to evaluate achievements in each aspect of learning. Data validity is obtained through triangulation of sources and methods. The research results showed that cognitive aspects, such as reading and memorizing verses of the Al-Qur'an, had the highest achievement, with 90% of students able to read well and 83% successful in memorizing. However, achievements in the affective aspect, namely understanding the meaning of verses and relating them to daily life, only reached 60% and 50%. In the psychomotor aspect, 67% of students have practiced the values ​​of the Al-Qur’an, such as being honest and disciplined. These findings indicate that Al-Qur'an-based learning methods need to be more innovative, using interactive media, in-depth reflection, and an applied approach. The implication of this research is the importance of training teachers to develop more creative and relevant teaching methods.

This research examines the challenges and opportunities of incorporating Information and Communication Technology (ICT) into Dhakil-level Madrasa teaching in Bangladesh. Despite the government's attempts to modernize education, ICT adoption in Madrasas remains much lower than in mainstream schools, with just 25% incorporating ICT into their curricula, compared to more than 70% in secondary schools. The study takes a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews to evaluate the present level of ICT infrastructure, teacher readiness, and cultural attitudes toward ICT integration in Madrasas. The findings show that poor infrastructure, particularly in rural regions, and a lack of educated instructors are essential hurdles to effective ICT adoption. Cultural and ideological resistance within the Madrasa community hinders efforts to integrate new technology, with some stakeholders concerned that ICT may undermine traditional Islamic instruction. However, the report also highlights significant opportunities for ICT integration, such as government measures to improve teacher training and revise curriculum to incorporate ICT components. The study indicates that, while there are significant problems, ICT can potentially improve religious and secular education. To ensure effective ICT integration, focused expenditures in infrastructure, teacher training, and culturally relevant curriculum creation are required. These efforts can help bridge the digital gap and provide Madrasa students with the skills they need to succeed in today's technology-driven environment.
