The Impact Of Social Media On Engaging The Stakeholders Of Fashion Based Organization With Reference To Mumbai City- A Content Analysis
Authors: - Charu Yadav
Published: January 2025

This study provides a distinctive perspective to the use of social media within corporations for communication. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between a fashion based organization and its stakeholders on the basis of their communication using social media. For the study, I chose content analysis as the research methodology since it allowed me to efficiently analyze the content uploaded by the brands- H&M and Zara on various social media platforms. After researching on the topic, I was able to develop 10 parameters based on which the influence of social media on communication patterns could be understood. The findings of the study show that solely audio-visual content uploaded on social media is incomplete in initiating conversations with stakeholders without certain written context. The limitation of the study is that content analysis does not allow first-hand interaction with the brand’s consumers, not providing detailed insight on the research topic. With the rising trend of social media in recent years, there are yet various aspects of the topic that have not been studied in detail. Thus, research on techniques to engage conversations with stakeholders on social media is still underdeveloped. Majority of the studies explore the idea of social media as a promotional tool, but this study emphasises the idea of social media as a communication tool for an organisation.

Indian Constitutional Provisions, Laws, Case Laws, And Legislations Regarding Gender Discrimination
Authors: - Ameena Saheblal Halima
Published: January 2025

Gender discrimination remains a pervasive issue in India, despite significant constitutional, legal, and judicial interventions aimed at promoting equality. This abstract provides an overview of India’s legal framework addressing gender discrimination, with a focus on constitutional provisions, key statutes, and landmark case laws. The Constitution of India enshrines several provisions, including Article 14 (Equality before Law), Article 15 (Prohibition of Discrimination), and Article 39 (Equal Pay for Equal Work), which lay the foundation for gender equality. Special provisions for women, children, and other marginalized genders are further enshrined in Article 15(3) and Article 42, directing the state to make affirmative actions.
India’s legislative measures, such as the Equal Remuneration Act, 1976, The Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005, and the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace Act, 2013, seek to address gender-based inequality across various spheres, including employment, domestic spaces, and workplaces. Significant amendments, such as the Hindu Succession Act, 2005, have granted women equal inheritance rights, while laws like the Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961 and the Child Marriage Restraint Act, 1929 aim to curb traditional forms of discrimination. India has made significant strides in enacting laws and judicial rulings to combat gender discrimination, continued efforts are required to address societal norms, strengthen enforcement mechanisms, and ensure true equality for all genders, particularly women and gender minorities, in all aspects of public and private life.

A Feminist Reading of Judy Chicago's Installation The Dinner Party (1979)
Authors: - Faizullah Ahmad , - Mohammad Affan Khan
Published: January 2025

Judy Chicago's "The Dinner Party" (1979) is a landmark feminist installation that reimagines the traditional dinner table as a symbolic site of women's historical contributions and struggles. This research paper provides a feminist reading of the installation, exploring how it challenges the patriarchal structures that have historically excluded women from cultural and historical narratives. The artwork features a large triangular table with 39 place settings, each dedicated to an influential woman from history, ranging from mythical figures to real-life trailblazers. Each setting includes a hand-embroidered runner, silverware, and a ceramic plate, often adorned with butterfly and flower motifs symbolizing the vulva, thereby reclaiming the female form from objectification and celebrating it as a source of creativity and power. "The Dinner Party" not only elevates traditional female crafts such as embroidery and china painting, often dismissed as mere "domestic arts," to the status of fine art but also critiques the gender biases that permeate the art world. This paper examines how the installation engages with feminist theory, particularly through its emphasis on collective female experience and its critique of historical erasure. By including a diverse range of women from different cultural and temporal backgrounds, Chicago's work highlights the interconnectedness of women's struggles across history. Furthermore, the paper discusses the critical reception of "The Dinner Party," analyzing both the acclaim and the backlash it received within the art community and beyond. This feminist reading underscores the work's enduring relevance as a powerful statement on gender equality and its call for a more inclusive recognition of women's roles in shaping society.

Authors: - Wilmar I P. Galibo , - Chiedel Joan G. San Diego
Published: January 2025

This study explores the relationship between physical education (PE) anxiety and students' attitudes toward the subject. The results reveal a moderate negative linear correlation between PE anxiety and students' attitudes, with a correlation coefficient of -0.405 (p-value = 0.000). This suggests that higher levels of PE anxiety are associated with less favorable attitudes toward the subject. Further analysis indicates that PE anxiety significantly influences attitudes, emphasizing its strong impact on students' perceptions and engagement. The findings highlight the importance of addressing anxiety in PE settings to foster more positive attitudes and enhance student experiences. Students with higher anxiety levels tend to develop negative perceptions of PE, while those with lower anxiety exhibit more favorable attitudes.

From Stability to Struggle: The Role of Small Financial Companies in Middle-Class Financial Decline
Authors: - Madhavi Kamble
Published: January 2025

The financial landscape of India has seen profound changes in recent years, with small financial companies emerging as key players. While initially celebrated for their role in providing access to credit and financial services to underserved populations, these institutions have increasingly contributed to the financial instability of the middle class. This study examines the mechanisms through which small financial companies have exacerbated financial challenges for middle-class families in India. Key factors include predatory lending practices, high interest rates, and inadequate regulatory oversight, which have collectively trapped many in a cycle of debt. Small financial companies often target middle-class individuals who may lack the financial literacy to navigate complex loan agreements, leading to severe economic consequences. The proliferation of microfinance institutions and non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) has also played a significant role in this dynamic. This paper explores the socioeconomic impact of these financial entities, shedding light on their contribution to the erosion of middle-class stability. Through a detailed analysis of case studies and financial data, the study underscores the need for comprehensive regulatory reforms and increased financial education to mitigate the adverse effects of these institutions. Addressing these challenges makes it possible to restore the financial health and stability of the middle class in India, ensuring a more equitable and sustainable economic future.
Exploring the Impact of Affective Domain Engagement on Learning: A Comparative Analysis of Different Teaching Approaches
Authors: - Jhovelyne A. Acosta , - Chiedel Joan G. San Diego
Published: January 2025

This quantitative study compares direct and indirect teaching approaches, investigating how the affective domain—emotions, attitudes, and motivation—shapes the teaching-learning process. Grounded in Krathwohl’s affective domain taxonomy, it explores the impact of students' emotional experiences on their self-efficacy, engagement, and skill acquisition. Data were collected from 300 Physical Education learners. The results show no significant difference in the median of the five affective domain categories between direct and indirect pedagogy, but notable differences exist in how they influence learners. Indirect methods encourage self-discovery but may not effectively instill values like teamwork and perseverance without direct teacher guidance. The affective domain often requires teachers to model desirable behaviors, such as fairness, respect, and empathy. Indirect teaching methods minimize the teacher's active role, reducing the opportunities for students to observe and emulate these behaviors. To optimize the development of both the affective domain and skills in learners under direct and indirect teaching approaches, students may cultivate a growth mindset, embrace holistic development, and actively participate in physical education. The Department of Physical Education may promote holistic learning and research-based practices, while PE teachers must integrate affective-focused pedagogies and model positive behaviors. Curriculum developers may balance technical and emotional development with assessment tools, and researchers must explore the long-term impact of affective teaching across diverse contexts. Future researchers are encouraged to expand studies, develop innovative assessment tools, and evaluate pedagogical approaches to enhance both emotional and skill development in sports education.

Published: January 2025

Abstract
Sheetapitta is a Skin condition mentioned by Acharya Madhavakara. Its Signs and Symptoms closely resemble those of Urticaria. Sheetapitta is a Tridoshaja janya vikara. In Ayurvedic science, conditions such as Shitapitta, Udard, and Kotha are considered Skin disorders similar to urticaria in modern science, sharing comparable symptoms and causes. Shitapitta is primarily caused by Virudhahara Sevan (incompatible dietary habits) and Doshaprakopaaka hetu (imbalanced doshas). It involves a combination of Vata and Kapha Doshas with an aggravated Pitta Dosha, leading to symptoms like inflammation resembling Varati Damshta Samsthana Shotha, Kandu Bahula, Toda Bahula, Chardi, Jvara, and Vidaha. Urticaria is known to impact approximately 20% of individuals at some stage in their lives. In modern science there is vast treatment of urticaria and other allergic skin disorders but recurrence of disease is common in very much cases. Also prolonged use of steroids and antihistamines may lead to adverse effects. Sheetapitta is one of the Santarpana janya vyadhi, so purificatory line of treatment is having most important. Shodhana Chikitsa is important in treating Sheetapitta because it helps to eliminate aggravated Dosas. Vamana, Virechana and Raktamokshana are main purificatory methods as Sheetapitta is a Pitta pradhana tridoshaja vyadhi. Shamana Chikitsa can effectively control Shitapitta and enhance the patient’s quality of life. In Sheetapitta by following Pathyapathya, recurrence can be prevented and the disease may be cured. It is yukti of the physician which principle is best suited for particular individual as per the Doshic predominance and state of the disease. This article intends to critical analysis on various modalities of purificatory and palliative management in Sheetapitta

Bamboo resources in Cagayan Province, Philippines, face challenges such as fragmented data, inconsistent protocols, and inadequate management, hindering sustainable utilization and conservation efforts. This study developed the Bamboo Species Database and Geotagging with Decision Support Features (BSDG-DSS) to address these issues. Combining descriptive and developmental research, the system integrates species profiling, GPS-based geotagging, and decision-support tools to enhance resource management and stakeholder collaboration. Evaluated against ISO 25010:2015 Software Quality Standards, the system achieved high compliance in functionality, usability, security, and reliability. Key features include species morphological, phytochemical, and genetic profiling, geospatial mapping, and interactive decision-support reports. Challenges such as resource constraints and data inconsistencies were identified, and enhancements like role-based access control, responsive web design, and mobile applications were proposed. The BSDG-DSS highlights the transformative potential of technology in resource management, fostering sustainable bamboo utilization, conservation, and economic growth. This study provides a scalable solution for addressing similar resource management challenges in other regions.

Məqalədə Abşeron yarımadasında iqlim dəyişgənliyi, ekoloji amillər, Ənginar bitkisinin insan sağlamlığına müsbət təsiri haqqında məlumat verilir. Müasir dövrdə iqlim dəyişmələri nəticəsində ekoloji amillərdən istilik və işıqlanmanın, atmosfer havasında karbon qazının (CO2) artması öz təbii miqdarını 0,03%-dən 0,042%-ə çatması və planetimizin temperatur göstəricisini isə xeyli artırmışdır. Bu artım bütün başqa coğrafi ərazilərdə olduğu kimi, Abşeron yarımadasında orta illik temperatur +4 − +5oC-dək yüksəlmişdir. Abşeronda işıqlanma nisbətən yüksək, temperatur, nisbi rütubət çox azdır. Buranın təbii suyu (dəniz suyu və quyu sularıdır). Ərazinin atmosfer havası xeyli qarışıq, iri sənaye şəhərlərdə oksigenin miqdarı isə 18,0 və 18,4%, olub normativdən xeyli aşağıdır. İqlim dəyişmələri bütün canlılar kimi bitkilərə də öz təsirini göstərməkdədir. Odur ki, onların qorunması əsas prioritet tədqiqatlardan biri hesab edilməlidir.
İnsan cəmiyyıtinin sağlam gələcəyi üçün keyfiyyətli qidalanma əsas şərtlərdir. Sağlam qida pe-osesində tərəvəzlərin istifadə edilməsi çox faydalıdır. Vitamin, mineral və antioksidant maddələr baxımından Ənginar bitkisi çox zəngindir. Bu bitkinin respublikamızda daha geniş becərilmə və istifadə olunması, elmi əsasda ətraflı öyrənilməsi məqsədəuyğundur.
