Konsep Zuhud Menurut Syekh Abdul Qodir Al Jailani: Studi Kitab Tafsir Al Jailani
Authors: Nur Safaat Ahmad Wafi
Published: August 2024

Modernisasi telah membawa perubahan dalam berbagai aspek kehidupan, termasuk pendidikan, politik, sosial, dan budaya. Salah satu dampak negatifnya adalah kecenderungan cara pandang yang lebih menekankan materialisme dan sekularisme, mengakibatkan pergeseran tujuan pendidikan dan ilmu pengetahuan dari upaya mendekatkan diri kepada Tuhan menjadi semata-mata untuk kepentingan duniawi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji konsep zuhud sebagai solusi untuk mengembalikan keseimbangan antara aspek material dan spiritual dalam kehidupan modern, serta menganalisis relevansinya dalam menghadapi tantangan modernitas. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode studi literatur dengan pendekatan analisis kritis terhadap sumber-sumber tertulis yang relevan. Langkah-langkah meliputi pencarian literatur sistematis, seleksi sumber berdasarkan kriteria kualitas dan relevansi, serta analisis mendalam terhadap tema-tema utama dan argumen dalam literatur terpilih. Konsep zuhud khususnya dalam pemikiran Syekh Abdul Qadir al-Jailani, memberikan pendekatan spiritual yang komprehensif dan multidimensional. Zuhud dibagi menjadi Zuhud Suwari dan Zuhud Hakiki, menekankan pentingnya keseimbangan antara syariat dan hakikat. Syekh Abdul Qadir menekankan pentingnya keseimbangan antara syariat dan hakikat, serta peran ilmu dan bimbingan spiritual dalam praktik zuhud. Beliau menggarisbawahi bahwa zuhud sejati melibatkan pengendalian hawa nafsu, moderasi dalam konsumsi hal-hal halal, dan pembebasan hati dari keterikatan duniawi. Ajaran beliau tentang zuhud menawarkan perspektif yang relevan dalam menghadapi tantangan modernitas, materialisme, dan konsumerisme.

Ahmet Haşim'in Şiirlerinde Tema

Eserlerini ağırlıklı olarak bir veya birden fazla tema etrafında kaleme alan sanatkârların, dar bir sanat evreni olduğu söylense de hüküm vermekte acele etmemek gerekir. Çünkü sanatkârın bütün eserleri ya da herhangi bir türde verdiği eserleri incelendiğinde benzer düşüncelerin, duyguların çok zengin imgelem ve çağrışım gücüyle aktarıldığı görülebilir. Tıpkı modern Türk şiirinin kurucu şairlerinden biri olan Ahmet Hâşim’in şiirlerinde olduğu gibi. İlk bakışta dar görünen Ahmet Hâşim’in şiir dünyası, musiki ve renkli betimlemelerle genişler.
Ahmet Hâşim’in şiir evreninin dar olması, onun toplumsal konulara şiirinin kapılarını kapatmış olmasıyla doğrudan ilgilidir. O, has şiirin prensipleri doğrultusunda bireysel duygu ve heyecanlarını dile getirmiştir; bütün şiirlerini, tek tema veya temel bir güç ekseninde kurgulamıştır. Bu özelliğinden dolayı onun şiirleri, Jean-Paul Weber’in “mono-thematique” (tek tema) ve Leo Spitzer’in “etymon spirtuel” (temel, güç) adını verdiği tema inceleme yöntemleri ışığında okunabilir. Bu yöntemler, bir yazarın/şairin eserlerinde ağırlıklı olarak bir veya birkaç tema etrafında dönüp durduğunu dile getirir. Ahmet Hamdi Tanpınar’ın sözünü ettiği mythe personnel (personel mit) düşüncesi de şairlerin bir veya birkaç tema etrafında hareket ettikleri kabulüne dayanır. Denilebilir ki her iki yaklaşımda da önemli olan her temanın çok farklı görünüşte edebî eserde kendini açığa vurabilmesidir.
Çalışma Ahmet Hâşim’in şiirlerini, hangi asli tema üzerine kurduğu ve bunun ekseninde de hangi yan temaların hareket ettiği tespitine dayanmaktadır. Buradan hareketle şairin şiirlerin şiirlerinin merkezinde “realiteden hatıralara ve hayallere kaçış” temi olduğu ve bunun etrafında da daha çok ümitsizlik çağrıştıran duyguların yer aldığını tespit edilmiştir. İncelen her bir şiirin duygu dokusunun bir diğerini çoğu kez bütünlediği ve merkezi tema etrafında döndüğü görülmüştür. Bu baskın duyguları birbirinden koparmak pek mümkün olmasa da bu çalışmada, şairin iç dünyasını yansıtabilmek adına bunlar, birkaç alt başlık altında değerlendirilmiştir.
Anahtar Kelimeler: Ahmet Hâşim, hayal, gerçek, hatıra, kaçış, aşk, yalnızlık.
Ömer F. Oyal'ın Magda Döndüğünde Romanında Yaşlılık
Authors: Gülgen Börklü Jale
Published: August 2024

Ömer F. Oyal, kendi tabiriyle insanın gündelik yaşamının “elle tutulamayan, gözle görülemeyen hakiki hasadı”nı temin etmeye yönelik hamlelerle yazmayı amaç edinen bir yazardır. Belli anlara mercek tutmayı ve kronolojik bir akıştansa mazi ve hâl arasında “sıçrama” yahut “zigzag” sözcükleriyle karakterize bir yapıyı tercih eder. Oyal, insanın, yaşamının mühim kavşaklarında geçmişi gözden geçirme temayülünün, hâlin mazinin bir semeresi olmasından kaynaklandığına inanır. Magda Döndüğünde romanında da hayatın son kavşağı olan “yaşlılık” evresindeki bir adamın “mazi-hâl” arasında akan “yaşlılık günleri”nin “hakiki hasadı”nı romanın verdiği imkânlar ölçüsünde tespit etmek ister.
Bu çalışmada Ömer F. Oyal’ın Magda Döndüğünde romanındaki ana kahramanın benliğinde “yaşlılık” hâlinin nasıl işlendiği meselesi merkeze alınmıştır. Eserdeki ana kahraman Salih Bey’in hem yaşlılık günlerindeki yaşlanmanın sonuçlarıyla şekillenen/değişen benliği; hem de bu günlerin penceresinden yeniden bakmak zorunda kaldığı mazisindeki genç Salih’i algılayış biçimi irdelenecektir. Salih Bey’in âdeta dipsiz bir kuyuya hapsetmek suretiyle yok saydığı hatıraları; yaşlılık evresinin esnek günlerinin hoşgörüsü yahut meşguliyet arayışı ile birlikte Pandora’nın kutusundan taşar gibi bu yaşlı adamın münzevi dünyasını istila etmiştir. Eserde yaşlanmanın biyolojik, psikolojik ve fiziksel değişimleriyle mücadele etmek zorunda kalan kahramanın ne gibi zorluklar yaşadığı, bu zorlukların ruhsal yapısında nasıl bir tahribat yarattığı ve benliğinde yol açtığı sosyal yaşamdan uzaklaşma, kendini izole etme arzusu gibi semptomların mahiyeti, yaşlılığa dair toplumsal önyargı ve kabullerin Salih Bey’in algı frekanslarını şüpheye dayalı bir biçimde nasıl yeniden inşa ettiği gösterilecektir. Kahramanın yaşlılık evresiyle, geçmişte yaptığı hataları nasıl yorumladığı, yaşadığı pişmanlıkların kefaretinin ödenememesinin nasıl bir ruhsal kaos doğurduğu; aile fertleri dâhil sosyal ilişkilerinin ne derece hasara uğradığı belirlenecek; bütün bunların ortak paydasındaki mücadele stratejisinin -Salih Bey’in bütün kararlı tavrına rağmen- ruhsal ve fiziksel sağlığında nasıl hızlı bir erozyona yol açtığı tespit edilecektir. Başkahraman Salih Bey’in, geçmişin kefaretinin imkânsız hâle geldiği bir evrede; bir arınma arzusuyla geçmişi telafi etmeye çalışmasının neden olduğu trajik sonuçlar belirlenecektir.

Günümüzde her disiplinin kendine özgü bir yöntem kullandığı bilinmektedir. Diğer taraftan disiplinlerarası etkileşimin araştırmacılara daha farklı bakış açıları kazandırdığı düşüncesi de oldukça yaygındır. Genel itibariyle birçok disiplinin temelinde insanı anlama ve anlatma çabasının olduğu da bilinen bir gerçektir. Bu doğrultuda birçok disiplinin ortak malzemesini oluşturan insan, edebiyat biliminin de merkezinde yer alan temel bir unsur olarak dikkat çekmektedir. Dolayısıyla birer toplum kurgusu özelliği gösteren edebi eserlerin geliştirilen disiplinlerarası yaklaşımlar neticesinde farklı çözümleme yöntemlerine tabii tutularak yapılarındaki derin anlamların gün ışığına çıkarıldığı görülmektedir. Edebi ürünlerin farklı okuma biçimlerine elverişli olduğu gerçeğine görünürlük kazandıran disiplinlerarası analiz yöntemlerinden biri de Carl Gustav Jung’un analitik psikoloji kuramına dayandırarak temellendirdiği “arketipsel sembolizm”dir. Edebiyat biliminde dikkat çeken bir yaklaşım olarak arketipsel sembolizm; temelde insanoğlunun ortak davranışlarını araştıran, milletlerin benzer düşünce kalıplarını belirleyen, edebiyat ürünlerini arketipsel sembollerin birer ifadesi olarak gören ve onların sembolik yapısını çözümleyen psikoloji kökenli bir metin çözümleme yöntemidir. Arketipsel sembolizme göre eserin bünyesinde örtük halde konumlanan arketipsel yapılar, eserin şifrelerinin çözülmesine ve arka planda kalan derin yapıların gün yüzüne çıkmasına yardımcı olmaktadır. Anlam olarak “ana örnek”, “ilk model”, “prototip” şeklinde ifade edilen arketipler, esas itibariyle insanoğlunun ortak kültürünü oluşturan temel yapı taşlarıdır. Dolayısıyla arketipler, ilkel insan ile modern insan arasında kurulan organik bağın da en somut ifadesidir. Bu nedenle arketiplerin tespit edilerek çözümlenmesi insanlığın ortak düşünce kalıplarının belirlenmesi açısından büyük önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışma kapsamında da arketipsel sembolizm açısından geniş bir malzeme barındırdığı öngörülen Murathan Mungan’ın Geyikler Lanetler (1992) adlı tiyatro eseri bu bilgiler ışığında incelemeye tabii tutulmuştur.

XII. yüzyılda kurulmuş olan Toledo Çeviri Okulu, Yunanca başta olmak üzere Farsça, Pehlevice ve Hintçe gibi dillerden çevrilmiş Arapça eserlerin, Latince ve diğer Batı dillerine çevrilmesiyle ün yapmış bir çeviri okuludur. İslam medeniyetinin ilme ve bilim insanlarına önem vermesi ve kuruldukları bölgelerde büyük medeniyetler kurmaları, savaşlar vesilesiyle Batı dünyasının ilgisini çekmiştir. Bu sebeple Avrupalılar, çeşitli çeviri okulları kurmuş ve tıp, felsefe, edebi vb. pek çok alandan olan Arapça eserleri kendi dillerine aktararak bu büyük medeniyetleri tanımaya çalışmışlardır. Çevirmen olarak Doğu’daki çeviri okullarında Süryaniler öncü iken Toledo Çeviri Okulu’nda Yahudiler ve Arapların Müsta’rib olarak isimlendirdiği Mozaraplar öncüdür. Çalışmada Arap dünyasında yaşanan büyük çeviri hareketiyle İslam medeniyetinin ve antik uygarlıkların, Toledo Çeviri Okulu’yla Batı toplumlarına nasıl yansıdığı incelenmiştir. Avrupa’da İslam ve Hristiyanlık arasındaki geçiş dönemi, karşılıklı kültürel etkiler açısından önemli sonuçlar doğurmuş, sorgulamanın ve öğrenmenin canlanmasında büyük bir rol oynamış ve Rönesans’ın yolunu açmıştır.
CHILDREN'S REPRESENTATIONS ON OTT PLATFORMS: A PERCEPTIVE ANALYSIS OF CONTENT DISPLAY
Authors: Kumari Smitee , Chawla Amit , Rai Dr. Shivendu Kumar , Singh Akanksha
Published: August 2024

The portrayal of children on OTT platforms can vary widely depending on the shows or movies, and the intended audience watching it. However, there are some general trends and considerations to keep in mind when it comes to the representation of children in this context. One trend that has emerged on OTT platforms is the increasing visibility and representation of children as main characters or protagonists in both live-action and animated programming. This can be seen in shows such as "Stranger Things," “The class”, “Elite” among others. At the same time, there are also concerns about the potential negative effects of certain types of content on OTT platforms. For example, some shows may include themes or language that is not age-appropriate, or may depict violence or other disturbing content that could be harmful or traumatic for younger viewers.This study explores the connection between children's use of OTT platforms and their engagement with them, taking into account a variety of variables like age, gender, education level, and intention to use the OTT platform. For the study, the researcher gathered both primary and secondary data. Data has been collected from 100 respondents. The majority of respondents concur that, characters on children’s shows represent diverse backgrounds and cultures; diversity on OTT platforms is adequate for children's understanding of the real world. The research showed that majority of parents are not satisfied with the overall quality of children's content on OTT platforms and they often monitor the quality of content their children’s are watching.Finding the factors and elements affecting the portrayal of children on OTT platforms and its impact on their mental health in this study will close the gap in earlier research.

THE HALF MOTHER: AN INQUIRY INTO THE POETICS OF RESISTANCE LITERATURE
Authors: S. Saran , Panicker Joji John , John Ancy Elezabath
Published: August 2024

“The Half Mother: An Inquiry into the Poetics of Resistance Literature” investigates the dynamic interplay between literary representation and political resistance in the context of the Kashmir conflict. This paper delves into how Shahnaz Bashir's novel, The Half Mother, exemplifies the genre of resistance literature by exploring the intersection of personal and collective trauma amidst a protracted conflict. The Kashmir Valley, historically a cradle of poetic and artistic expression, has faced profound devastation since the late 1980s due to a surge in violence and insurgency. This period, marked by intense militarization and human rights abuses, has given rise to a distinct body of English-language literature that seeks to authentically portray the lived experiences of its people.The study situates The Half Mother within the broader framework of resistance literature, drawing on Ghassan Kanafani's theoretical construct of resistance as both a cultural and political act. This study demonstrates how these literary efforts transcend mere chronicles of victimhood to engage in a profound examination of human resilience and the quest for self-determination. Bashir’s novel thus emerges as a pivotal text that not only contributes to the international literary discourse but also amplifies the voices of a marginalized and silenced population. The Half Mother encapsulates the transformation of individual suffering into a collective resistance, shedding light on the intrinsic link between literary creation and political struggle, and offering a poignant commentary on the enduring human spirit amidst adversity.
ASSESSMENT OF THE AWARENESS LEVEL ABOUT GOVERNMENT FINANCIAL SCHEMES AMONG WOMEN BENEFICIARIES IN GOA
Authors: Dhumatkar Deepa V. , Bhat Subrahmanya
Published: August 2024

Women are an integral part of every economy. A nation’s growth also depends on the overall growth and development of women. The Government of India together with the State Governments is trying to empower the women through various schemes so that they become economically independent. These schemes have played very important role in reducing the vulnerability of poor women, through asset creation, income generation and provision of emergency assistance. However, the success of these schemes is determined by their reach. If the needy women are not aware of the schemes, then it would limit the number of beneficiaries of such schemes and the very purpose of such schemes would not be achieved. The schemes selected for the study were Griha Aadhar Scheme, Mamta Scheme, Pradhan Mantri Matru Vandana Yojana and Ladli Laxmi Scheme. The main objective of the study is to know the impact of demographic variables on the awareness level of schemes among women beneficiaries and to know the socio-economic impact of the schemes. Snowball method of sampling was used to select a sample of 220 women beneficiaries for the study. The data was analysed using statistical tools like mean, standard deviation, independent t-test, paired t-test, Chi-square and ANOVA. It was concluded that moderate level of empowerment was found among women beneficiaries. It was also seen that there was significant relationship between education level, place of residence and the level of awareness among beneficiaries.
Investigation of The Relationship Between Trunk Performance and Upper Extremity Functions, Balance, Functional Mobility and Activities of Daily Living In Post-Stroke Patients

Published: August 2024

Investigation of The Relationship Between Trunk Performance and Upper Extremity Functions, Balance, Functional Mobility and Activities of Daily Living In Post-Stroke Patients Introduction: Stroke and related disabilities often lead
to pain and weakness in the trunk, affecting daily life activities. Trunk impairment, characterized by muscle weakness, is a significant factor limiting motor recovery after stroke. Trunk stability is crucial for postural balance,
upper extremity function, and daily activities. Therefore, early acquisition of trunk control is essential in stroke rehabilitation. Despite its importance, the relationship between trunk performance and upper extremity function,
balance, and daily life activities in post-stroke patients remains understudied. Materials and Methods: Fifty post-stroke patients aged 65 to 81 were included in the study, meeting specific inclusion criteria. Trunk performance
was assessed using the Trunk Impairment Scale (TIS), while upper extremity function, balance, and daily life activities were evaluated using various tests, including the Wolf Motor Function Test (WMFT), Berg Balance Scale (BBS),
Time Up and Go (TUG), and Functional Independence Measure (FIM). Data analysis was conducted using SPSS 22.0, and Pearson Correlation Tests were employed to examine the interrelations between evaluation parameters. Results: The
study found no significant correlations between trunk performance (TIS) and balance measurements (BBS and TUG) or between trunk performance and upper extremity functions (WMFT) and daily life activities (FIM). Discussion: While
previous research has emphasized the importance of trunk control in post-stroke rehabilitation, our study did not identify significant correlations between trunk performance and other functional parameters. This discrepancy may
be due to the specific evaluation parameters used in our study, which focused on sitting posture for trunk performance, while other assessments primarily targeted standing and walking activities. Conclusion: In conclusion, this
study suggests that there is no significant relationship between trunk performance and upper extremity function, balance, and daily life activities in post-stroke patients. However, the existing literature highlights the critical
role of trunk control in post-stroke rehabilitation. Trunk control should be considered an essential skill to regain functional independence, walking ability, and upper extremity use after a stroke. Rehabilitation programs should
prioritize interventions to improve trunk control, especially in the early stages of recovery, to enhance the overall outcomes of post-stroke patients. Key Words: Trunk Performance, Post-Stroke Rehabilitation, Upper Extremity Function,
Balance Assessment, Daily Life Activities.
Gluten-Free and Casein-Free Diet Approach
Authors: Ersöz Elmas , Yıldıran Hilal
Published: August 2024

A gluten-free and casein-free diet (GFCF) involves completely eliminating wheat, barley, rye, oats, and other grains containing gluten, as well as dairy products containing casein from an individual's diet. The foundations of GFCF
are based on the opioid mechanism. Consequently, applications of GFCF have been explored in conditions such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD), schizophrenia, nephrotic syndrome (NS), and diabetes. According to the obtained data,
positive behavioral changes and several favorable effects, such as a reduction in hospitalization duration, have been observed in these conditions following GFCF interventions. However, it is important to note that these studies
often have methodological limitations and may be subject to nutritional challenges arising from the elimination process. It is premature to consider GFCF as a nutritional therapy for these conditions. Considering the limitations
in previous studies and the opioid mechanism, new research should be planned. Additionally, to prevent inadequacies arising from both the disease itself and the dietary process, there is a significant need to focus on the development
of gluten-free and casein-free products.
The Diagnostic and Prognostic Value of Inflammatory Prognostic Index and EPIC Score in Biliary and Non-biliary Pancreatitis
Authors: GUNEY Turkan , DEVECİ Murat , DOKUR Mehmet
Published: August 2024

Objective: We are interested in investigating the effect of the Inflammatory Prognostic Index (IPI) and ExtraPancreatic Inflammation on CT (EPIC) Score on the hospitalization duration of patients with biliary and non-biliary pancreatitis.
Materials and Method: We randomly assigned eligible Acute pancreatitis patients to training and validation cohorts and gathered pertinent data, including patient demographics, vital signs, laboratory and imaging test results, medication
records, and survival data. In order to ascertain the cut-off positions for the variables, we implemented ROC analysis. For categorical variables, we implemented chi-square tests. The Spearman's rho correlation test was employed
to examine the relationships and levels between the variables. A probability value of p<0.05 was regarded as statistically significant. Findings and Results: The average ages of the patients and the control group were 70.3±14.9
(range: 27-98) and 56.5±19.0 (range: 24-83) years, respectively. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis did not demonstrate statistical significance (P = 0.916, p > 0.05) for the IPI variable in patients
without biliary pancreatitis. The ROC curve analysis of the IPI variable in patients with biliary pancreatitis yielded a significant result (P = 0.001 / p<0.05), with a cut-off value of >79.55. A strong positive connection
was observed between the Interpersonal Perception Inventory (IPI) and the EPIC score (P = 0.014 / p<0.05, r = 0.319).A significant and robust positive connection was seen between the EPIC score and the duration of stay (p<0.001,
r = 0.815). The use of the EPIC score and IPI has the potential to be advantageous in forecasting the length of hospital stays for patients with acute pancreatitis.

Published: August 2024

Writing skills are the most difficult language skills for students, especially those students with English as a Second Language (ESL) and as an English Foreign Language (EFL) in various academic institutions. This situation has made most college students fail to write effective academic works. This study assessed the effectiveness of the Editing and Proofreading Skills Course in improving the academic writing of law students in Tanzania. Specifically, the study assessed the common errors made by law students in academic writing. The study involved the action research design consisting of pre- and post-interventions. Data were collected through observations and questionnaire methods. Data were analysed statistically through the Wilcoxon Signed-rank test and the McNemar exact test at 95% confidence intervals to analyse the before and after intervention data. The study found that law students had a limited basic understanding of the editing and proofreading techniques before the intervention. After the intervention, there was a significant improvement in students’ writing skills as the results showed an exact p-value of 0.000. It recommends the inclusion of specific instructions on Editing and Proofreading Skills Courses as part of the Legal Education Curriculum in Tanzania.

The present study investigated the effect of computer- and mobile-mediated shadowing on Iranian impulsive and reflective English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners’ speaking ability. To collect the data, 100 intermediate participants, whose proficiency level was measured by administering Oxford Quick Placement Test (OQPT), took the pretest of speaking. A personality type questionnaire was also used to detect the learners’ impulsivity or reflectivity. There were four experimental groups including 1) computer (Prezi) + shadowing + impulsive learners; 2) computer (Prezi) + shadowing + reflective learners; 3) mobile (WhatsApp) + shadowing + impulsive learners; and 4) mobile (WhatsApp) + shadowing + reflective learners. Then, the posttest was administered. After the descriptive and inferential analyses of the pre- and post-tests, significant improvement was observed among the four experimental groups’ speaking ability. However, reflective learners were shown to outperform the impulsive learners in both computer and mobile-mediated shadowing groups. The results can be beneficial to English language learners, teachers, teacher trainers, as well as material developers.

This study deals with democracy education in three dimensions. The first of these dimensions is the theory dimension. In this dimension, the pedagogical and theoretical characteristics of the educational activities to be carried out for children, especially in the primary education period, have been tried to be explained. The second part of the study is the presentation of a framework plan to enable the acquisition of democracy consciousness and democratic attitude behaviors by students. The last part of the study consists of activity examples. As a result, this study is designed as an introductory book to be used by teachers and researchers regarding the purpose, content, learning-teaching situations, and evaluation steps related to democracy education, which should be included in the curricula in all countries of the world. It is thought that expanding the proposed activities and implementing them in schools will provide theoretically based democracy education. Switzerland is known for its strong democracy that has been exercised continuously for hundreds of years. Democracy education practices in Switzerland, which stands out as a country with direct democracy practices, are also explained within the conceptual framework.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the relationships between social influences related to digital transformation adoption and cognitive competency in forming problem-solving skills. A deduction approach associated with the positivist philosophy was employed in order to build up the research model to explain the process of shaping problem-solving skills. By sending questionnaires randomly via Google Forms, a cross-sectional study with 337 respondents aged 17 years and older, including men and women with an education level of high school or higher, was conducted in southern Vietnam. Prior to assessing the measurement and structural models, the reliability and validity of measurement scales were examined by Cronbach’s alpha using SPSS software. The SmartPLS software then was utilized to analyze the measurement and structural models and test the hypotheses using partial least squares structural equation modelling. According to research findings, social influences associated with the implementation of digital transformation had a direct positive impact on workers' cognitive competency as well as their problem-solving skills. In addition, the research model also demonstrated the effects of cognitive processes when receiving social impacts through direct and indirect mechanisms on problem-solving skills, in which low thinking ability was the foundation for high thinking and creative abilities. Based on these findings, the research opened a novel approach to problem-solving skills through the mechanism of the impacts of stimuli on organisms and organisms on responses that were a premise for managers to provide and orient information to improve employees' cognitive abilities and problem-solving skills.

The identification and characterisation of all course syllabus on research methodologies in education in advanced studies in education allows to present the current Portuguese teaching and learning scenario in this field for the first time. The approach for the development of this empirical work was a national survey of all master's and doctoral programmes in education and in teaching, coding and translating the information. The data collected was validated with the respective higher education institution, the master or doctoral coordinator and the teacher responsible for the research methods teaching. A qualitative based methodology through descriptive statistical analysis enables a presentation of trends in the design and organisation of the course syllabus. The results show a research knowledge that is fragmented and not clear. The descriptions of course syllabus undervalue the epistemological and methodological issues inherent in the construction of scientific knowledge in education. Privilege is given to the operationality of the methodology with a view to developing a scientific project.

This mixed-methods study examines two research areas concerning whether U.S. women college students, compared with men, enrolled in online classes during the pandemic suffered from stress regarding their ability to socialize and negotiate a community/national political issue(s) affecting them negatively academically in terms of their grade point average and course outcomes, as well as whether the women would experience a sense of belonging and camaraderie with classmates by discussing topics impacting their identities and circumstances in terms of their individual and communal, social-relational, health, and financial pandemic contexts, which might also influence them negatively academically as stressors linked to their course outcomes and progress. Conducted in a rural, geographically marginalized area, the study implements survey and short-answer question instruments and utilizes an exploratory case-study design and a convergent-parallel strategy assessing 188 women and 188 men participants, including racial/ethnic minority and low socio-economic status (SES) women, with women’s median age of 23. of women and men surveyed, the former reported statistically significantly higher stress levels than men connected to the women’s need to socialize and tackle pandemic-oriented community and national political issues affecting their lives and statuses, which subsequently influenced their academic progress. Overall, the pandemic damaged women, especially racial/ethnic minorities, more than men, with women having higher stress rates revolving around their need for socializing (59% versus 33%) and addressing political issues (54% versus 32%), stressors hampering the women’s academic outcomes and status, as well as some experiencing additional stress regarding health and financial concerns. In response to these settings, 21% of women (n = 40) desired to discuss controversial topics, such as their pandemic stressors and related experiences in the classroom, including the pandemic’s political consequences for themselves, to promote self-expression, forge bonds, and seek and provide assistance in addressing all classmates’ academic, personal, and community needs.

Social-emotional competencies are complex actions that include skills, knowledge and attitudes to maintain effective and satisfactory social interactions. As well as, managing one's own and other people's emotions in different environments. They are vital for healthy coexistence in higher education. The purpose of this research was to establish the evidence of validity and reliability for the scale of socioemotional competencies of university teachers. Scale constructed under the pentagonal model approach of Bizquerra and Pérez (2007). The study is cross-sectional and instrumental. A non-probabilistic convenience sample of 237 teachers from public and private universities in Lima (Peru), from different professional careers, aged between 24 and 70 years, male and female, was used. Satisfactory evidence of content-based validity was found for the criteria of clarity, pertinence, and relevance for each of the items using Aiken's V technique. For validity based on the internal structure of the construct, a Penta dimensional model and a bi-factor model were contrasted by confirmatory factor analysis, with better fit values for the second model (CFI and TLI > 0.95, RMSEA and SRMR < 0.07, = ω h = 0.90, ECV and PUC > 0.95), and favorable evidence of convergent and discriminant validity was also found. For both the overall score and the scores for each factor, there were coefficients denoting high reliability (ordinal α and ω > 0.90).
