The effects of big data analytics and workplace pressures on productivity
Authors: Ahmad Hanandeh , Kilani Qais , Alnajdawi Sakher
Published: August 2023

This study set out to find out on how big data analytics, workload, work wages, and organizational structure pressures affect employee job performance and overall business performance in the Jordan banking sector in the context of that country's banking sector. 292 samples from the research study were collected, analyzed, and debated to test the study's hypotheses. Employee and company success were found to be affected by workload, compensation, and organizational structure. Workload was reflected by job completion rate, average daily issues, and work completion time, while big data was reflected by external and internal, unique application, indexing, and source correctness. Work compensation, including employee compensation, employee experience and skill, and employee incentives and rewards, is the third primary factor. Communities of practice, group work, and physical infrastructure make up the fourth and last important factor, the organization's structure. The study finds that when dealing with large amounts of data, reducing the workload can improve employee performance, increasing employee motivation through higher wages and bonuses can improve performance, and having an organizational structure that promotes teamwork and work teams can improve employees' abilities to solve problems and improve work performance, which in turn affects overall productivity. This study contributes fresh information to an emerging field that requires more investigation to fully understand the interplay between big data, workload, work wages, and organizational structure pressures. The topic of this study, the Jordan banking sector, is both innovative and highly relevant because it may help financial institutions enhance their operations and provide superior customer service.

This study investigates the factors that influence the sharing of information on social media platforms and examines the effects of perceived security, perceived privacy, and user awareness on users' trust in social media platforms, as well as the moderating effects of age, gender, educational attainment, and internet proficiency on information sharing. The study collected data from 837 social media users in Jordan and analyzed them using structural equation modeling (SEM), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and machine learning (ML) methods. The findings of the study indicate that perceived security, perceived privacy, and user awareness all have a significant impact on users' trust in social media platforms. Trust, in turn, has a significant impact on the amount of information shared on these platforms. Also, the findings of this study provide valuable insights into the dynamics of information sharing on social networks. This knowledge will be of interest to managers, policymakers, and developers of social media platforms. In addition, the findings of the study also have implications for the privacy and security of social media users. For example, social media users can be more careful about the information they share on social media platforms, and they can take steps to protect their privacy.

Reflections on Ideologies Underpinning ELT Curriculum and Nature of Global Course Books Used in Saudi Arabia
Authors: Anwar Muhammad Mansoor , Alhoussawi Hussain
Published: August 2023

The influence of neoliberal ideology in the educational literature has widely been discussed recently. Yet relatively little critical attention has been paid to the ways these hegemonic agendas have shaped and influenced the development of ELT curriculum and published teaching materials. This theoretical paper reviews literature on how neoliberal ideology influences ELT curriculum, namely published teaching materials. Also, it argues that ELT curriculum contents are essentially political and ideologically constructed to fulfil the politico-economic interests of ELT international publishers, located in the centre (e.g., UK and US). These neoliberal ideological constructions are preparing our students to become neoliberal citizens, consumers, or customers of English language learning, who can become apt members of callous marketization. This theoretical paper recommends that TESOL professionals need to play their role by demystifying and resisting these ideologies by redesigning the ELT curricula, such as course books. In addition, scripted curriculum and one-size-fits-all policy reflected in global course books contents do not fulfil the needs of diverse learners in various EFL/ESL contexts. Therefore, TESOL professionals, in particular teachers and academics need to be aware of current and potential educational policies and advocacies driven by western neoliberal educational ideologies. In practice, ESL/EFL teachers, academics and curriculum developers are required to consider their contextual local realities, such as students' English language learning constraints and teaching perspectives from teachers stand points in designing the EFL/ ESL curriculum contents.

The Elder Family: Intergenerational Slaveholding in Early American Catholicism
Authors: Endres David J.
Published: August 2023

For at least five generations, the Elder family held enslaved persons as part of their agricultural, commercial, and domestic pursuits in Maryland, Kentucky, and Louisiana. Though scholars have highlighted slaveholding by US religious orders, especially the Jesuits, little attention has been paid to how lay Catholics bought, sold, and treated their bondspeople. This study explores how the Elder family was connected to slavery, including the intergenerational transfer of human property—and the practices and mentality that sustained it.

The aim of this research were investigated bamboo-based activated charcoal (ABT)characteristics using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR). ABT has been successfully synthesized through physico-chemical activation at 700°C with H3PO4 10% solution as activator. The resulted were porous surface structure of bamboo charcoal causes an absorption interaction of pollutants (cations, anions, and suspended solids/TSS) in wastewater. Bamboo charcoal has different physical characteristics from charcoal from other types of raw materials because the structure with lignin composition is different from charcoal from other wood. The spectral patterns of AB and ABT are similar but differ in intensity. The functional groups detected in the two materials are the same, but there are differences in the absorption intensity where the ABT is relatively lower, especially in the hydroxyl functional groups at around 3400 and 1600 cm-1. This decrease in intensity is due to the dehydration process that occurs during both physical and chemical activation processes so that the hydroxyl groups come out of the bamboo charcoal structure

Saengchote and Sthienchoak (2020) databank include 190 SBP official statement between 2001 and 2020. Modifications in 3-months fed futures, which can be negatively associated with Standard and Poor 500 within thirty-min window (15-minutes earlier, 15-minutes later) immediate SBP official statements, are categorized as traditional shocks. Contractionary shocks within the traditional logic cause a drop in the initial public offering undertaking. Opposed to, contractionary shocks that deliver the influential financial facts generate an upward thrust in initial public offering task. The setting apart traditional monetary shocks from state financial institution statistics shocks permits an ironic evaluation of monetary policies affecting initial public offering market. This study has added two major points to literature as it shows that monetary policy has impartial role in determining initial public offering market, also research shows that informational effect of financial shocks is as essential such as traditional effect in upsetting the initial public offering goings-on.

Analysis of the Imagery of the Chinese Ba-construction from a Cognitive Perspective
Authors: Zhang Xinyu
Published: August 2023

The Ba-construction is a unique sentence form in Chinese that expresses the semantics of “disposition”, “causing”, and “purpose”. It has always been a critical research point in modern Chinese. In recent years, with the continuous development of cognitive linguistics theory, more and more researchers have applied it to the study of Ba-construction. In this article, we analyze the imagery schema of the Ba-construction according to the imagery schema theory of cognitive linguistics and classify it into four types: displacement schema, container schema, balance schema and circumferential coverage schema. The analysis of the Ba-construction in the cognitive domain is an essential inspiration and cognitive value for the in-depth understanding of the structure of the Ba-construction and other Chinese sentence patterns.
Revisiting Quine’s argument on a priori knowledge & Going a step further than the relativized a priori
Authors: Li Eddie
Published: August 2023

In this paper I revisited Quine’s argument against Carnap’s notion of analytic a priori knowledge and offers an explanation on why Carnap—holding his logical positivist ground—can not make a convincing reply against Quine. However, I argue that if Quine succeeds in the sense that we can make no convincing reply against his argument, then a priori knowledge will have to be abandoned, so that we will have to retreat to where Quine calls the “pragmatic grounds”. I then evaluate Friedman’s notion of the relativised a priori knowledge as an argument to reply to Quine, and claim that Friedman’s notion is a strong reply against Quine. That being said, Friedman’s notion itself, along with Friedman’s arguments that attempts to justify the notion, is limited, as it only concerns some aspects of natural science (naturwissenchaften) and not the human science (geistwissenchaften): Friedman is thus missing out important ideas from figures such as Hegel and Husserl. I claim that in order to give a priori knowledge its proper place, we should simultaneously consider arguments from both the natural sciences and from the human sciences.

A study of the legal aspects of the creation of a right of residence by means of a will
Authors: Li Fengyan
Published: August 2023

The Civil Code, which came into force on 1 January 2021, establishes for the first time the manner in which the right of abode is to be established in the form of an article of law. However, there is no clear provision on how the right of residence is established by way of a will, and judicial practice is not uniform in its determination. By analysis the rules on the subject and object elements of the system of registration of the right of residence by will, it is easy to see that the main lack of foundation for the system is the conflict of rights: the conflict of interests between the heir and the owner of the right of residence, and the conflict of rights between the public interest and the private interest. Taking this as the basis, we will explore the path of perfecting the system of registration of the right of residence established by will, and determine the value orientation of protecting the vulnerable groups.

From the perspective of historical research, this ecological-history perspective represented at that time a pioneering research progress.
The Idea of Feminist in a Literary Way Through Chen Duansheng's Masterpiece Eternal Happiness
Authors: Mu Yizhen
Published: August 2023

As developed rapidly in the modern world, more and more articles and books focused on women's self-awareness; however, there are some works that pay too much attention to struggling for dominance in the field of ideas and departed from the original intent of affirmative action. This will undoubtedly lead to a disconnect between works based on the female perspective and the cognitive level of the audience, to the detriment of the reader's empathy and understanding of the content of the text. In this way, many of these works are useless from a public interest point of view and can even be counterproductive to those who do not understand the relevant field of knowledge.

Pop, Girl Groups, Anime, Soap Operas: How East Asian Media’s Negative Portrayal of Women Shapes Adolescents’ View on Gender Equality and Self Image
Authors: Lin Ziyi
Published: August 2023

Media has long been shaping people’s perspectives and media in the patriarchal world has been constructing a typical portrayal of what women ought to resemble. This study aims to reveal how media in East Asia has been shaping women and how it has been affecting teenagers. Through gathering findings from different articles, it is found that women are often sexualized and commercialized under the heavy male gaze, acting for men’s benefit, especially in East Asia where patriarchy had stuck along. With males dominating the industries and holding the wealth and power uniformly in most parts of the world, they have active control over their passive surroundings. Men choose what to represent according to their own standards and interests, injecting the male gaze onto all of the media they have touched upon. With its wide prevalence, people assimilate and subconsciously adopt the male gaze, which diminishes women. Adolescents can be strongly affected by this portrayal, such as encountering body dysmorphia, internalization of the male gaze, early attachment to pornography, etc.
The Relationship Between Antisocial Personality Disorder and Criminology: Acquired Factors and Genetic Influences
Authors: Zhang Sophia Zhiyue
Published: August 2023

This study looks at the interaction of internal and external factors in the process of antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) and criminal conduct. It reveals the major contributions of both genetic and acquired factors using data from longitudinal twin studies, neuroimaging research, and gene-environment interaction studies. Environmental variables, such as bad childhood experiences, community hardship, and exposure to violence, also play important roles in antisocial behavior variance. The complicated interaction between genetic predispositions and environmental conditions emphasizes the need of understanding these components' dynamic character throughout an individual's development. With further knowledge, it will be feasible to build complete, individualized therapies that target both genetic and environmental aspects in the emergence and maintenance of antisocial behavior. Furthermore, this review emphasizes the importance of early intervention and prevention strategies that take an individual's unique genetic and environmental risk factors into account, ultimately contributing to a more effective approach in reducing the prevalence of ASPD and criminal behavior in society.
The Relationship between Exposure to Domestic Violence and Adult Violent Crime
Authors: Liu Baiyu , Xu Wanqing
Published: August 2023

Domestic violence is taking a severe toll on the physical, mental, and personal health of millions worldwide. There is a lack of a comprehensive explanation of the mechanisms underlying this link based on theoretical psychological ideas, even if some experts have found a strong link between being exposed to domestic abuse as a child and engaging in violent crime as an adult. In order to explain how violence is passed down through generations and the long-term impacts of domestic violence on people, this study will make use of the social learning theory, cognitive theory, and gender role theory. The findings of this study are supported by a thorough evaluation of earlier literature. According to the study's findings, children who have observed domestic violence are more likely to be socially and cognitively immature, and they are also more prone to think that using physical force to settle disputes is acceptable. They have a higher propensity to act aggressively and commit violent crimes as a result. This study concludes that domestic violence has severe, long-lasting negative impacts on people's physical, cognitive, and social development. The research concludes by urging society to provide children who have witnessed domestic violence with prompt medical and psychological care to aid in their recovery and lessen their likelihood of committing violent crimes. Such mental health services should start with a case-by-case analysis because children have different experiences and levels of physical and mental injuries and can only be tailored to the treatment of different children.
A Comparative Analysis of the Novel and the Film of the Joy Luck Club from the Perspective of Postcolonial Feminism
Authors: Deng Lishan , Yang Mengjie , Xu Yiqun
Published: August 2023

The Chinese American female writer Amy Tan published the autobiographical novel The Joy Luck Club in 1989. After four years, the story was adapted into a film of the same name, written by Amy Tan and directed by Chinese American Wayne Wang. Afterward, Chinese and foreign scholars studied from the perspectives of feminism, Chinese identity, Chinese and Western cultural conflict and the mother-daughter relationship. In China, few scholars combine the theories of post-colonialism and feminism to study the original work and film adaptation of The Joy Luck Club. The research finds that although the film successfully restores the main plot and retains the spirit core of the novel, it also has the following problems: strong orientalist overtones, de-emphasizing female narrative voices, and ignoring Asian marginalization. Through a close reading of the novel and a deep interpretation of the film, this article makes a comparative study of the two from the perspective of Spivak's postcolonial feminist theory and explores the deficiencies after the film adaptation. It is found that these deficiencies occur because the director is influenced by postcolonial cultural background and traditional patriarchy. He falsifies the women's right to discourse in the third world, making them unable to speak for themselves independently.

Authors: Zhang Huanchen
Published: August 2023

The main difference between the media industry and other industries is that its products have strong cultural value and can have a significant social impact. Therefore, social benefits should be prioritized, and their economic and social benefits have a high correlation, which will be subject to the utilization, constraints, and distortion of various social forces. Therefore, this article attempts to conduct research on the development of China's media industry from the perspective of communication psychology. From the perspective of the research scope of communication psychology, research on psychological issues in specific communication business fields such as news psychology and advertising psychology should also fall within the scope of communication psychology. In theory, any psychological theory or principle can find its own unique manifestation in communication activities, and this is also the focus of communication psychology research. For the media industry that is gradually entering market-oriented operation, this article believes that currently measuring the market performance of the media industry, profit margin cannot be the most important indicator, but should mainly consider the scale structure efficiency, resource allocation efficiency, technological progress, and other aspects of the market under specific media market structure and market behavior conditions.
