Islamic boarding schools as institutions that grow and develop together with the community have the potential to empower the community through business entities. Community trust in Islamic boarding schools is the basic capital for Islamic boarding schools to be able to establish business entities that are oriented towards community empowerment. Business entities in Islamic boarding schools have been mentioned in Law No. 18 of 2019, however, in the implementation of the establishment of Islamic boarding school business entities, they still refer to previously existing regulations. On the other hand, the Islamic boarding school law states that Islamic boarding schools in their activities, including community empowerment through the establishment of business entities, must maintain the characteristics, uniqueness, ideals and character of Islamic boarding schools so that in this case there is a legal vacuum. In this research, researchers used the theory of legal certainty and the theory of development law. Method The research approach used is a normative juridical approach and the type of research is qualitative research. The sources of legal material for this research were obtained from primary and secondary data sources. Where the primary source material is legislation and ministerial regulations. Meanwhile secondary data sources were obtained from literature studies, from various books, journals, and the internet. The data collection technique in this research uses library study techniques. Based on the research results, the regulation of legal certainty for Islamic boarding schools in carrying out business entity activities is mentioned in Article 45 of Law No. 18 of 2019. However, in establishing and managing business entities in Islamic boarding schools, regulations need to be issued that regulate them. This is necessary so that Islamic boarding schools in carrying out business activities still maintain the characteristics, uniqueness, character and ideals of Islamic boarding schools in accordance with articles 4 and 8 of Law No. 18 of 2019 concerning Islamic boarding schools. so that legal certainty, development, renewal and empowerment of society through Islamic boarding school business entities can be realized.

Preserving the Normative Significance of Sentience
Authors: Dung Leonard
Published: February 2024

According to an orthodox view, the capacity for conscious experience (sentience) is relevant to the distribution of moral status and value. However, physicalism about consciousness might threaten the normative relevance of sentience. According to the indeterminacy argument, sentience
is metaphysically indeterminate while indeterminacy of sentience is incompatible with its normative relevance. According to the introspective argument (by François Kammerer), the unreliability of our conscious introspection undercuts the justification for belief in the normative relevance
of consciousness. I defend the normative relevance of sentience against these objections. First, I demonstrate that physicalists only have to concede a limited amount of indeterminacy of sentience. This moderate indeterminacy is in harmony with the role of sentience in determining moral status.
Second, I argue that physicalism gives us no reason to expect that introspection is unreliable with respect to the normative relevance of consciousness.
Measuring Phenomenal Consciousness in Delirium: The New Black
Authors: Eeles Eamonn , Teodorczuk Andrew , Dissanayaka Nadeeka
Published: February 2024

Delirium has conventionally been considered a disorder of consciousness, but this remains a relatively unexamined precept. First, a review of the role of consciousness disruption in delirium is revised from an historical and diagnostic perspective. Second, consciousness measurement
in routine assessment of delirium is considered. Conscious levels, comprising alertness and arousal, are most commonly used but are not representative of the multidimensionality of consciousness. Third, a justification for the exploration of phenomenal consciousness is presented. Three candidate
dimensions of phenomenal consciousness are identified as the pre-reflective state, phenomenal experience, and reflective thought. Finally, the clinical implications of a deeper understanding of delirium through measurement of phenomenal consciousness is considered.
A Simple, Testable Mind–Body Solution?
Authors: Jones Mostyn
Published: February 2024

Neuroelectrical panpsychism (NP) offers a clear, simple, testable mind–body solution. It says that everything is at least minimally conscious, and electrical activity across separate neurons creates a unified, intelligent mind. NP draws on recent experimental evidence to address
the easy problem of specifying the mind's neural correlates. These correlates are neuroelectrical activities that, for example, generate our different qualia, unite them to form perceptions and emotions, and help guide brain operations. NP also addresses the hard problem of why minds accompany
these neural correlates. Here, the real nature of matter-energy (beyond how it appears to sense organs) is consciousness that occupies space, exerts forces, and unites neuroelectrically to form minds. This doesn't reduce consciousness to observable neural activities, nor posit any radically
different entities. NP also deals with panpsychism's combination problem by explaining how the mind's subject and experiences arise by electrically combining simple experiences in brains.
Introspection in Emotion Research: Challenges and Insights
Authors: Lapping-Carr Leiszle , Krumm Alek E. , Kaneshiro Cody , Heavey Christopher L.
Published: February 2024

Introspection, or looking inward to observe one's experience, is inherent in many methods used to study feelings, the experiential component of emotion. Challenges of introspection make faithful, high-fidelity descriptions of feelings difficult to attain. A method that (1) cleaves to
a specific moment, (2) cleaves to pristine inner experience, (3) brackets presuppositions, and (4) utilizes an iterative process may be particularly well suited to this task. We review some contemporary introspective methods from the perspective of these four methodological constraints, finding
that Descriptive Experience Sampling (DES) addresses the constraints most fully. We present DES findings on feelings to highlight the unique contributions careful introspective methods make to emotion science. High-fidelity descriptions of feelings are necessary for a complete understanding
of emotion.
The Consciousness of Acting: The Effect of Divided and Unified Consciousness on Acting Performance
Authors: Pleshkevich Maria , Mattson Mark E.
Published: February 2024

The art of acting, drama, or theatre has been largely excluded from the debate on the nature of consciousness in the scientific community. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether acting performance benefits from a divided or unified state of consciousness. Twenty-four acting
students and professionals performed a monologue three times, twice with an interference task. Two different sets of instructions were provided for this task: one that asked participants to incorporate the interference into the world of their monologue (unified consciousness), and another
that asked them to dissociate it from their theatrical performance (divided consciousness). The variables studied included an evaluation of performance on primary and secondary tasks, as well as responses on a creativity and dissociative experiences questionnaire and to open-ended questions.
Two acting professors provided monologue ratings. There was a significant difference in interference task performance scores for the divided and unified conscious conditions, as well as for the primary rater's monologue scores. Participants performed better on both tasks when they were asked
to incorporate the interference into the imagined world of their monologue. These results show that a unified conscious approach results in better performance on certain tasks, implying that unified consciousness may be more adaptive for certain daily functions such as multitasking.
The 'No-Supervenience' Theorem and its Implications for Theories of Consciousness
Authors: Reason Catherine M.
Published: February 2024

The 'no-supervenience' theorem (Reason, 2019; Reason and Shah, 2021) is a proof that no fully self-aware system can entirely supervene on any objectively observable system. I here present a simple, non-technical summary of the proof and demonstrate its implications for four separate
theories of consciousness: the 'property dualism' theory of David Chalmers; the 'reflexive monism' of Max Velmans; Galen Strawson's 'realistic monism'; and the 'illusionism' of Keith Frankish. It is shown that all are ruled out in their current form by the no-supervenience theorem, except
for Chalmers' theory, which I show requires humans to behave irrationally.
Panexperientialism and Radical Emergence
Authors: Robinson William S.
Published: February 2024

Panexperientialists hold that experience is a fundamental feature of our universe, and that their view avoids radical emergence by providing an intelligible ground for our human experiences. This paper argues that they face a radical emergence problem of their own, and that they can
avoid radical emergence only by adopting a strategy that can also be used by dualists (whose view they reject). It also argues that panexperientialists must either hold that all experiential properties they regard as simple must have been actually instantiated since the earliest days of our
universe, or accept radical emergence, or avoid radical emergence by a strategy that can also be adopted by dualists.
Seeking the Neural Correlates of Awakening
Authors: Tempone-Wiltshire Julien
Published: February 2024

Contemplative scholarship has recently reoriented attention towards the neuroscientific study of the soteriological ambition of Buddhist practice, 'awakening'. This article evaluates the project of seeking neural correlates for awakening. Key definitional and operational issues are
identified demonstrating that: the nature of awakening is highly contested both within and across Buddhist traditions; the meaning of awakening is both context- and concept-dependent; and awakening may be non-conceptual and ineffable. It is demonstrated that operationalized secular conceptions
of awakening, divorced from soteriological and cultural factors, have little relationship to traditional Buddhist construct(s) of awakening. This article identifies methodological issues for secular conceptions of awakening concerning introspection and neuroimaging yet demonstrates also the
value of recent advancements in empirical first-person phenomenology for attenuating introspective bias. Overall, it is contended that significant problems arise when decontextualizing awakening and placing it within a scientific naturalistic framework. Careful attention to the definitional,
operational, and methodological neuroscientific obstacles identified herein is required in the responsible approach to the investigation of awakening states.
The Neural Basis of Our Responses to Reading Novels: On Being Moved, the Motion in Emotion
Authors: Trimble Michael , Hesdorffer Dale , Letellier Robert
Published: February 2024

Telling tales and reading have been a part of human activity for a very long time. We review in brief the anthropological evidence, then the emergence of the 'modern novel'. This explores in narratives the psychological reflections of the characters concerned with life circumstances
including loss, abandonment, despair, illness, dying, and death. We report findings that the response of crying to a novel occurs as often as to music, not reported before: both 'move us'. We note what several critics and authors imply about the imagined world of 'novel space' which emphasizes
the active not passive nature of reading dramatic action, the latter being embedded and embodied within us. This touches on the mind–brain problem. We provide a brief introduction to neuroscientific work with brain imaging revealing how cerebral networks to do with theory of mind and
brain structures that are the basis of our movements are involved with the very act of reading words and narratives. Emotional tearing is an exclusive attribute of Homo sapiens, and crying can have positive benefits for mental health. We argue that bibliotherapy needs greater attention than
has been the case at present. We also suggest that telling tales and the 'modern novel' are closely allied to the development of the consciousness of Homo sapiens.
Supervisory Assistance in Organization: Basis for Enhanced Instructional Supervision for Teachers
Authors: Oriente Victoria Susan , Alvarado Angelito
Published: February 2024

Instructional supervision is very important as an administrator can reinforce and enhance teaching practices that can contribute to improved student learning. By skillfully analyzing performance and appropriate data, administrators can provide meaningful feedback and direction to teachers that can have a profound effect on learning that occurs in each classroom. Because the student's learning is the primary function of the schools, the effective supervision of instruction is one of the most critical functions of the administrator. If schools provide equal access to quality educational programs for all the students, administrators must hold the teacher accountable for providing an appropriate and well-planned program. Generally, this quasi-experimental study aims to determine the effectiveness of the Project Supervisory Assistance in Organization (SAO) which was served as a basis for enhancing the instructional supervision of teachers specifically in Sta. Filomena Integrated School under the schools division office of Isabela. It is focused mainly on the instructional supervision of the school head as to the teacher's lesson log, facilitation skills, learner's engagement, classroom management, and learning environment as indicators. Frequency, mean, and T test was used as a statistical tool to treat the data gathered for this study. The results of this study indicate that respondents performed better after the implementation of the project Supervisory Assistance in Organization (SAO) as reflected in the mean of their post evaluation. Therefore, the researchers have concluded that the project SAO is effective for the use of school heads in instructional supervision. Furthermore, it is note taking that they presented motivation related to the topic; activated the learner's prior knowledge and motivated them for the lesson; provided localized, contextualized indigenized/culture-based inputs for the proper and correct understanding of the concept; asked different levels of questions to develop learner's HOTS; they gave clear instructions and arranged activities logically from simple to complex or vice-versa; and acknowledged and responded to students' diverse learning needs.

Published: February 2024

This study attempted to determine the utilization of indigenous instructional materials in teaching language from Grade 1 to Grade 3 at Paracelis District, Division of Mountain Province for the School Year 2018- 2019. Descriptive survey method used to gather information about the objectives of the utilization of indigenous instructional materials, impact or benefits of integrating indigenous instructional materials in teaching language and problems encountered in using indigenous materials in teaching language. Rank, frequency and percentage, mean and Pearson r were utilized in this study. The teachers contemplate the availability of the funds in the utilization of the indigenous Instructional Materials (IMs). On the other hand, both teachers and school heads have an equal awareness on the objectives of the utilization of instructional materials. The respondents believe that using the indigenous materials in teaching language only have a very large impact as a guide or reference materials in teachinglearning process. Therefore, the integration of the indigenous instructional materials positively affects the teachinglearning process. Likewise, the utilization of Instructional Materials facilitates learning and teaching. The school shall allocate funds and budget to provide indigenous instructional materials in teaching language. Additionally, initiating strategies among teachers as frontiers of its implementation of providing local Instructional Materials and enforces teachers' involvement of provision of instructional materials shall be done religiously. Henceforth, the school heads shall propose regular Learning Action Cell (LAC) sessions on how to provide indigenous instructional materials. Additionally, they shall conduct strict monitoring of the preparation of Instructional Materials to assure the quality of the instructional materials to be used in teaching language. Indeed, this study could probably help the teachers on how to utilize local, indigenous and contextualized Instructional Materials.

Authors: Nainan Mariam , Balakrishnan Balamuralithara , Mohamad Ali Ahmad Zamzuri
Published: February 2024

Worked examples are effective for learning problem solving but, only if students engage with the content. An approach to promote engagement is through signalling. This study compared worked example designs for learning introductory programming using two approaches for signaling: labelled and visualised. It explored students’ preferences and perceptions of the designs through a crossover design where students were exposed to both worked example designs. Data was collected through a questionnaire. Quantitative analysis showed that more students favoured visualised design. Qualitative analysis showed that students found both designs helped to understand the solution. Additionally, visualised worked examples also helped in understanding the problem, the relationship between problem and solution, as well as the programming process. Other differences were also identified.
Down the Rabbit Hole: A literature review based on causes and consequences of the Alice in Wonderland Syndrome
Authors: Linhares Emilly Mota , Menezes Ana Luiza Almeida , Castro Maria Eduarda Pontes Cunha de
Published: February 2024

The Alice in Wonderland Syndrome (AIWS) is a rare clinical neurological condition, based on the presence of perception disorders which are interpreted by the patient as rare metamorphosing and depersonalization events. The  most common causes of AIWS are infections by the Epstein-Barr virus and migraines. Symptoms include visual illusions in which the patient sees altered object dimensions, changes in the shape (metamorphopsia) and even notice the disappearing of objects (palinopsy) and the appearance of animals (zoopsy). Nevertheless AIWS remains a poorly known and misdiagnosed syndrome. This instability in the diagnostic process is due to the fact that no univocally accepted diagnostic criteria for this disease has been developed. Further studies must be performed to achieve better comprehension of the syndrome.

The survey is significant for bringing to light critical aspects on women professionals. It states that close to 7/10 women faced negative changes in their normal lives because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In fact, women participating in the study believed that their career development would slow down. For many working professionals, the pandemic:

Disturbed their work-life balance leading to impacting their mental and physical health

Negatively impacted their present and long-term career prospects

Led to them working longer hours along with additional care-giving responsibilities because of closing of school, elderly care while also working full-time
A study on relationship between youth’s perception and preference towards fast food restaurants in Bangalore
Authors: Mahesh G , Dsilva Anitha BM
Published: February 2024

The study's goal is to learn how young people in Bangalore feel about and choose fast food establishments. Managers in today's complex business environment must constantly search for new ways to attract and keep consumers across all product categories. In light of the rising expense of acquiring new clients, many businesses are implementing loyalty programmes in an effort to keep their current clientele and strengthen their bonds with them. One industry that has thrived despite the recession is quick service restaurants (QSRs). A glance back at recent years is all it takes to get a sense of the fast food industry's meteoric rise. Fast food has become a staple of modern culture, and not only among the younger demographic. The fast food industry has become so ingrained in modern culture that its patrons' very act of ordering or patronising its outlets has come to represent a status signal for their social group. The Indian market for quick service restaurants has fierce competition amongst several major companies.  Most consumers are prepared to pay extra for higher-quality cuisine and menu upgrades. Employee happiness is a top priority, thus restaurants are working to make their dining areas more spacious and welcoming.

Published: February 2024

Objective The first objective was to assess the influence of a health education program that placed emphasis on improving physical activity level and diet quality on the microbiota. The second objective was to investigate the effect of extrinsic and intrinsic factors on the responses of individual microbiota taxa to the health education intervention. Design A secondary analysis of the Full Plate Diet (FPD) trial, a randomized controlled, clinical trial which included a 10-week health education program at Loma Linda, CA. Setting Drayson Center, Loma Linda University, CA. Method Fecal samples were collected at baseline (Pre) and after the termination of the health education intervention (Post). Bacterial DNA were extracted and 16S rRNA amplicon were then sequenced. Results No significant differences were observed, for any of the groups, in the α or ß diversities between baseline and post-intervention. Baseline microbiome significantly determined the shift of the individual microbial taxa; however, treatment type, gender, and baseline BMI, did not predict this shift. Conclusion A health education intervention emphasizing stress management and improvement in diet quality and physical activity did not have much influence on abundance and diversity of microbiota in a group of obese middle-aged adults. The shift in the microbiome, however, and the responsiveness to health education intervention could be predicted by the baseline microbiome level.

Authors: Alghamdi Salha , Alotaibi Meshari Thamer
Published: February 2024

This paper examines a Saudi novice independent podcaster making episodes on Buzzsprout, a podcast hosting service that enables businesses to create, publish, and distribute podcast episodes across several platforms. Buzzsprout is a well-known podcast hosting platform that has assisted over 100,000 individuals in establishing podcasts since 2009, and it offers several tools to help podcasters create and sell their episodes. This paper’s main objective is to illustrate how Buzzsprout monetizes and regulates its policy on beginner podcasters in the Middle East. This paper will explore the regulations social media platforms impose on new podcasters, emphasizing the domination of corporate media platforms that control creators’ content and storytelling if they do not pay for a monthly subscription. To reach a deep understanding of monetization and regulations in the media system, we will apply Marx’s critique of the political economy. Finally, this paper will discuss different models for monetizing and regulating podcasts.

Published: February 2024

This study attempts to investigate whether the banks operating in Sudan are solvent and financially sound as well as to examine whether there are roots for a banking panic. The research is also intended to determine whether there are candidate bankrupt banks. The study employs quantitative and qualitative research methods and utilizes both secondary and primary data and covers the eight-year period 2013-2020. The annual audited financial reports of banks published for the period under study represent the source of the secondary data and the primary data is collected through questionnaires distributed to depositors. The sample comprises 30 banks out of a total population of 37 banks. Also, responses from 416 participants in the questionnaire are considered for constructing the depositors’ confidence index. To test the hypotheses a number of quantitative models, namely, univariate financial ratios models, Ahmed (2003) Z-score model, Altman (2002) emergent markets Z-score model, and depositor’s confidence index (DCI) model are utilized. The statistical results of three out of the four models, namely, the univariate financial ratios model, Ahmed (2003) Z-score model, and depositor’s confidence index, document that banks operating in Sudan are financially unsound and financially distressed and none of those banks is thoroughly healthy. However, the results of EM Z-score model show that banks operating in Sudan can be categorized as healthy and financially sound and that there are no roots for a banking panic in the country.
