Customer Perception on Bank Selection Criteria in Butwal Sub-Metropolitan City
Authors: Gahatraj Maya
Published: October 2023

Banking services are essential to a corporate institution's efficient operation because they enable the safe transfer of funds from one party to another, simplify financial transactions, reduce risk, manage cash flows, and even offer security services to fortify ties between banking institutions, customers, and partners. The unhealthy competition among them makes it challenging to select the finest, though. Using the dependent variable (Bank Selection Criteria) and the independent variables (Convenience, Technology, Bank Charge, and Employee Behavior), this study tries to pinpoint the variables impacting bank selection criteria. The basic random sampling method was used to collect data from 250 bank clients for this investigation. The cross-sectional descriptive study design was used. There have been uses of both descriptive and inferential statistical methods. The findings showed that the bank selection criteria and convenience have a substantial positive correlation. Bank selection criteria are positively marginally influenced by employee behavior and technology. The findings of this study will be helpful to curious consumers, anxious bankers, academics, government officials, and up-and-coming researchers, enabling them to demonstrate greater concern for their clientele in the future. Keywords: Bank Selection, Convenience, Technology, Bank Charge and Employee Behavior

Authors: Journal IJSREM
Published: October 2023

- There are books of every sort available at libraries. Web-based software called Intranet Library Management System is used. This system has a list of all the books and allows remote users to view it simultaneously from wherever on campus. However, users need to be signed up for that. Two tiers of architecture make up this system. Students submit requests, which the server receives, processes, extracts data from the database, and then returns the completed request back to the client. This system offers a unique interface and login for students and librarians. Students may look for books online and renew their books. The librarian can change the database. They may simply send messages to the librarian from any location within the campus to propose new books. They may examine the due dates and issuance and return dates for any books. This system produces reports that may be used to evaluate the performance of the library. The management can then take the necessary action to upgrade the facilities.

Authors: Tao Jiang
Published: October 2023

In recent years, there has been a growing emphasis on reviving rural areas in China, which has become a crucial strategic direction for the nation's economic and social development. Currently, rural revitalization is a major endeavor in China, and the successful implementation of land policy and planning strategies is crucial to its achievement. This study seeks to examine the use of Geographic Information System (GIS) in crafting land policy and planning strategies for rural rejuvenation. By harnessing GIS technology, a thorough evaluation and analysis of rural land resources can be undertaken, furnishing a scientific basis for formulating land policy. Furthermore, Geographical Information Systems (GIS) provide opportunities for spatial analysis, simulation, and decision support capabilities to implement rural land policy and planning strategies. Nevertheless, the use of GIS technology presents challenges and limitations in terms of data acquisition and technological implementation. To promote the sustainable development of the rural economy, future research efforts should concentrate on further enhancing the utilization of GIS technology in rural revitalization.
Reading Circles: Triggers for Increased Engagement of EFL Learners in Extensive Reading
Authors:   Ecole Normale d’Enseignement Technique et Professionnel (ENETP), Koné Kadidja
Published: October 2023

While reading circles have been utilized to promote extensive reading in many educational settings, studies on higher levels of reading engagement in under-researched, English-as-a-foreign-language contexts are still in their infancy. Therefore, the current study examines the factors that increase learners’ levels of engagement in extensive reading tasks. I used learner diaries to collect data from 60 undergraduate students (ages 19–23) learning English as a foreign language in Mali. The findings suggested that cohesive groups with positive norms, behavioral changes during the task (e.g., investing an exceptional effort to achieve a significant learning goal, such as reading an entire story or a novel), and enjoyment after completing a reading task corresponded with these learners’ high engagement levels in extensive reading. Although the findings of this study are specific to one group of language learners, they can still be applied to plan classroom interventions in other EFL contexts to promote learners’ reading engagement.

English-as-a-foreign-language (EFL) students’ willingness to communicate (WTC) is required both in face-to-face (F2F) and online learning. While literature had extensively explored students’ WTC factors in F2F learning, studies on students’ WTC factors in online learning were still limited. Hence, this exploratory factor analysis (EFA) study aimed at investigating the interplays among learner agency, learner beliefs, growth language mindset, and teacher autonomy support as predictors of students’ WTC in online learning by testing eight formulated hypotheses about the possible interplays. Using Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), we carried out the study with 367 EFL students from several universities in Indonesia who had experienced online English classes and invited them to voluntarily respond to an online survey questionnaire using a Google form. The results demonstrated positive and significant relationships among the variables, indicating that learner agency, learner beliefs, growth language mindset, and teacher autonomy support are significant predictors of WTC in online learning. EFL teachers might use the results of this study as a consideration to proactively encourage students’ WTC in online learning. Future research directions and other pedagogical implications are also discussed.

Authors: Ahmad Usman
Published: October 2023

Several species of the genus Ficus have been reported to exhibit antimicrobial and pharmacological effects. Extracts from the leaves of Ficus abutilifolia are used traditionally to treat various infectious diseases by indigenous communities of Nigeria with little or no data on the acute oral toxicity. Hence, the aim of this study was to conduct qualitative phytochemical screening and evaluate the acute oral toxicity of Ficus abutilifolia (Miq) aqueous leaves extract in mice. Fresh leaves of Ficus abutilifolia were collected from the field at Anguwan Daudu Tsauni, Giwa LGA., Kaduna State. The plant was authenticated and the leaves air dried and milled into powder. The powdered sample was macerated with water and allowed to stand for 24 hours. The qualitative phytochemical evaluation and LD50 was carried out, also, haematology and serum biochemistry parameters were conducted using standard techniques. Results of phytochemical constituents showed the presence of flavonoids, cardiac glycosides, phenolic compounds, alkaloids, tannins, steroids, carbohydrates, saponins, and terpenoids. The LD50 was found to be > 2000 mg/kg with no obvious signs of toxicity and death over the 14 days period. Significant (p < 0.05) elevation was observed in the TWBC of the mice administered Ficus abutilifolia (Miq). There was no significant (p > 0.05) increase in the AST, ALP, BUN and creatinine levels when compared to the normal control. In conclusion, LD50 of Ficus abutilifolia (Miq) was shown to be greater than 2000mg/kg with no observed toxicity sign; hence, the plant possesses a wide margin of safety.

Published: October 2023

Students with disabilities are increasingly receiving their instruction in inclusive classrooms. General education teachers continue to report a lack of preparation to address their needs. This study examined the impact of a 6-hour professional development seminar on the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework to determine if preservice general and special education teachers’ overall performance in lesson design to reduce barriers, identified through increased attention to student variability, improved. Two lesson plans, preseminar and postseminar, from 242 participants were scored using a modified education field experience (EFE) rubric that included 19 evaluation criteria. A Rasch analysis was used to determine pretest and posttest scoring validity and to enable regression analysis with a continuous outcome variable. Results indicated that the seminar resulted in higher scores for the participants’ postmeasures, controlling for the premeasure effects, as well as unique findings based on subject matter. These findings are presented, as well as implications for future research and practice.

One of the biggest challenges for visually impaired people is learning cartographic content. Among the cartographic contents, the conceptualization and delimitation of preservation areas is an applied example with extreme relevance for environmental education. This article presents the process of developing a tactile graphic scheme for environmental education for visually impaired people regarding the delimitation of permanent preservation areas around springs and rivers. The creation of the teaching resource used easily acquired materials and followed format recommendations indicated by academic literature on tactile maps. The didact resource has textual content in Braille and Roman numerals, as well as legend and graphic scale in high relief. Special care was taken so that the teaching resource can be used in an inclusive manner, involving, at the same time, blind, partially visually impaired and students with full vision, to promote an inclusive educational environment. This resource can be a useful tool for teaching cartography topics applied to environmental conservation contexts.

Environmental processes to recover degraded areas, as well as the conservation of Brazilian forests and biomes, have intensified interest in the propagation of native species, triggering an increase in demand for the production of seeds and seedlings. Among the plants with a high potential for reforestation is the ipê, of all colors, a species suitable for reforestation, urban afforestation, landscaping, or domestic planting. This study aimed to evaluate the morphological characteristics of ipê-roxo as a function of doses of hydro-absorbent polymer in the open field. The experiment was carried out in 14 L pots in the area of the UNINTA University Center, in the municipality of Tianguá, on the Ibiapaba plateau, in a randomized block design, testing three doses of hydro-absorbent polymer (0.0, 3.0, and 6.0 g kg-1) applied in the hole before transplanting the ipê-roxo seedlings, with five replications. The plant's morphological characteristics were assessed, such as number of leaves, plant height, and stem diameter. The data was subjected to the normality test and Tukey's test at a 5% significance level. It was found that there were no significant results about the treatments used in the experiment; the different doses of hydro-absorbent polymer did not influence any of the variables analyzed, as shown in the analysis of variance, at 30, 60, and 90 DAT. We conclude that the null hypothesis is accepted, there is no difference between the treatments and the control, indicating that polymer doses of up to 6.0 g kg-1 do not influence the morphological aspect of ipê-roxo up to 90 days.

Authors: Dos Santos Hugo Thaner , Duarte Sergio Nascimento
Published: October 2023

Cities do not perform assertive water resources’ management, mainly due to lack of hydrological studies in the literature. Volta Redonda City fits this context, since it experiences several extreme rainfall events. The aims of the current study are to present estimates for evapotranspiration, water shortage and percolation, to address critical water-availability months and to feature the climate in the investigated region, based on the water balance method by Thornthwaite and Mather. Meteorological data recorded between 2001 and 2021, provided by the National Water and Basic Sanitation Agency and by the State Environmental Institute, were used to analyze water availability in the investigated city. Volta Redonda presented actual evapotranspiration equal to 90.6 mm month-1; water deficit equal to 13.0 mm month-1 and water surplus equal to 22.8 mm month-1. Climate in the region is humid; it presents small water shortage throughout the year and critical water availability from March to October. These months require greater attention in water management processes due to high deficit values recorded for water balance. Results in the current study are pioneering, since they present the analysis of meteorological data previously used for air quality control, only. Volta Redonda needs assertive water management, since it recorded higher water deficits than surpluses in 13 of the 20 analyzed years.

Published: October 2023

Purpose: The role of information technology in government agencies is becoming increasingly vital. Information Technology (IT) is positioned as an enabler, driver, and even transformer that plays a significant role in creating an organization's competitive advantage. In Government Agencies in the Republic of Indonesia, the application of SPBE (Electronic Based Government System) further legitimizes the vital role of information technology in the operations of Government Agencies in achieving organizational goals and objectives. One of the main activities in SPBE is the implementation of enterprise architecture (EA) in government agencies called the SPBE architecture. The EA implementation based on various studies conducted can positively contribute to encouraging the role of IT in achieving organizational performance.   Research implications: Based on the implementation of the SPBE evaluation since 2018, there have been several improvements in the implementation of the SPBE in Government Agencies, both in terms of policy, governance, management, and IT services. The SPBE maturity index for government agencies generally increases from year to year. Government Agencies have generally started EA implementation or SPBE. However, no research can show whether it is true that EA Implementation in Local Government Agencies in the Republic of Indonesia can contribute to achieving organizational performance that represents increasing achievement of organizational goals and objectives.   Method: This research was conducted at all district/city government agencies within the province of West Java. This study tries to test the hypothesis of how the implementation of EA in district/city local government agencies in West Java Province represented by EA capabilities and EA governance can contribute to improving organizational performance through organizational agility. In the relationship between EA capability and governance and organizational agility, the hypothesis testing of the leadership moderation variable is tested, whether it is true that leadership can contribute to achieving organizational agility in implementing EA.   Results and conclusion: Data processing uses quantitative analysis with descriptive statistics and verification analysis using SEM. From the research, EA capability and EA governance contribute to organizational performance improvement through organizational agility. Leadership provides a positive moderating effect on the relationship between EA capability and EA governance on organizational agility.

It launches the Polish edition of the monumentalthree-volume work published by Éditions Gallimard in Pariswhich is the first study of the universal history of the museum.This is more than a book, it’s a monument! (Plus qu’un livre,un monument!) is what Fabien Simode wrote in the l’OEilmonthly (March 2021). At present rarely are such historicallybroad studies released, possibly because of authors’ fear ofbeing potentially accused of postmodernist meta-narrative.In this case, the work is a comprehensive synthesis in view ofthe entailed chronology, geography, and thematic range. Thediscussed volume Od skarbca do muzeum [From a TreasureChamber to the Museum] recently published for Polish readerstackles the process of European collectorship crystalizingand first museums being its consequence, mainly Italian andseveral northern ones, from the Capitoline Museum in Rome(1471) up to London’s British Museum (1753). Subsequentvolumes are already being prepared. Titled L’ancrage européen,1789–1850, the second one is dedicated to the historyof the museum consolidating into a permanent and significantelement of European culture, close to the institution weknow today: started by the revolutionary Louvre (1793), thishistory is created by the vast part of the major museums oftoday’s Western Europe. Finally, volume three A la conquêtedu monde, 1850–2020 is the most extensive of them all bothchronologically and territorially, as well as in view of the numberof museums and their activity discussed. Author’s considerationsencompass museums’ expansion to Eastern Europeincluding Russia, and then eventually to the rest of the world:Asia, Africa, both Americas, mainly the territories connectedwith the West through colonial bonds; the United States, beingthe area where today’s dominating world centres havebeen formed, is analysed separately. At that point the book’stitle: world history, gains its full relevance, and relates both tothe interwar period in the democratic and totalitarian world,WW II, and to the long contemporary era.

The aim of this study was to describe the presence and course of the internal carotid artery and indicate the timing of changes in the vascular system of the head associated with the process of obliteration of this vessel. The study was conducted on 146 representatives of the Cervidae family: red deer, fallow deer and roe deer This study showed the presence of a fully preserved internal carotid artery in fetuses and young animals up to the age of about two years. In animals of about 2.5 years of age, only the initial fragment of the internal carotid artery emerging from the carotid sinus and a short fragment directly through the rostral epidural rete mirabile were preserved. In adult animals older than three years the extracranial part of this artery was obliterated.

Devido às Mudanças Climáticas Globais, o Brasil enfrenta uma maior suscetibilidade a períodos de seca prolongada e estiagem. Esses eventos tornaram-se mais frequentes e têm impactos diretos na Pecuária. Durante o período seco, que ocorre de junho a setembro, a escassez de forragem prejudica significativamente o desempenho dos bovinos, levando a perdas de peso, redução acentuada na produção de leite, diminuição da fertilidade e um enfraquecimento geral do rebanho. Nesse sentido, o estudo teve como objetivo avaliar capacidade de suporte de uma pastagem de Brachiaria decumbens para bovinocultura leiteira. O estudo foi realizado na Fazenda Escola do Curso de Medicina Veterinária da Universidade Iguaçu, em uma pastagem de Brachiaria decumbens, Município de Piraí, no Rio de Janeiro, em abril. A capacidade de suporte foi avaliada através do Método do Quadrado, preconizado pela EMBRAPA (2010). Considerando o resultado de aproximadamente 3 UA/ha mediante rotação a cada 3-4 dias, um resultado baixo, indica-se o monitoramento contínuo da pastagem, com avaliação sazonal de acordo com as estações do ano. Recomenda-se ainda a realização de análise de solo e possível adubação e calagem.

Vaccines are preparations containing antigens that are introduced into the body to create an immune response. Therefore, the review of safe vaccination practice (TCAT) in immunization sessions at commune and ward health stations and some related factors is a very necessary and urgent issue to improve the quality of vaccination. Cross-sectional descriptive study design at 20 health stations of Phu Yen province. Results: 100% of health stations meet TCAT requirements during vaccination sessions ; 85.1% of children were trained in the satisfactory injection procedure, the reception and screening procedures and the post-injection follow-up met the requirements of 82.9% and 83.4%, respectively. There are 73.1% of children who have successfully practiced the pre-vaccination counseling process. The analysis results show that a number of factors are related to TCAT implementation, such as staff in charge of the expanded immunization program, medical qualifications, and doctors' qualifications . Besides, injection team with satisfactory general knowledge performed TCAT better than injection team with unsatisfactory general knowledge. Therefore, strengthen supervision and professional training related to vaccination practices of health workers.

The study was conducted to determine the prevalence of sinusitis and the rate of bacterial, fungal and allergic sinusitis among the people examined at the Ear Nose Throat Hospital of the Central Region in 2022.The study was designed using descriptive research method.The prevalence of sinusitis in people who came for examination was 25.27% (379/1500), including 47.50% (180/379) with bacterial sinusitis, 18.20% (69/379) with fungal sinusitis, and 34.30% (130/379) with allergic sinusitis. The rate of sinusitis in males and females was 42.28% (183/379) and 57.72% respectively. Those people aged from 18 to 60 were the most infected, accounting for 83.90%, followed by those doing freelance jobs (70.98%). Some risk factors included chronic nasopharyngitis (OR = 7.99: 3.36 – 9.32), history of otitis media (OR = = 3.51: 1.76 – 5.35). No association between allergy and sinusitis was found (OR = 0.23: 0.16 -1.53). The rate of sinusitis in women was higher than that in men, in which bacterial sinusitis accounted for the largest proportion and commonly seen in the age group of 18 to 60. Related factors included chronic nasopharyngitis and history of otitis media.

Pig farming is considered as backbone of rural poor farmers, belonging to lowest socio-economic strata, where mainly unorganized means of pig farming, improper housing, feeding and management are the constraints, and such practices are well known to expose the pig population to a number of infectious and non-infectious disease causing agents. One among those infectious diseases agents is rotavirus (RV), which is the foremost cause of gastrointestinal infections in mammalian and avian species all over the world, also a predominant cause of enteric infections in pigs, and has potential public health concerns. This review provides information on the frequency of RV infection, genotype diversity and zoonotic potential of its emerging reassortants in Indian porcine population. Prevalence studies done so far revealed gruesomely higher porcine RV prevalence in north-eastern region (46.4%) of India. Analysis of available sequence data of VP7 gene (G genotype) and VP4 gene (P genotype) of porcine group A rotaviruses (Po-RVAs) showed the presence of G4, G6, G9, G12 and P[6], P[7], P[13]and P[19] genotypes. Lately, few of the porcine RV strains also exhibited unique genomic constellations with evidence of interspecies transmission events, mainly involving RV strains of human origin. Evolution of rotaviruses is fast due to point mutation and reassortants generation in case of multiple infections. Thus it is imperative to generate the baseline information for formulating better disease preventive and control strategy. At present, nationwide surveillance and monitoring is prerequisite to assess the distribution of common and unusual genotypes of RVs circulating among pig population in India.
