Published: February 2025

The article analyzes the economic and social mechanisms of the effectiveness of personnel training for the civil defense system of Ukraine. Financial resources for personnel support were analyzed, which depend on two components: the number of personnel and the salary of each employee. If the salary is regulated by state regulations and acts annually by the capabilities of society, the difficulty of work, and the qualifications of personnel, then the number of employees of the operational and rescue service is regulated by regulations that are revised quite rarely and, as experience shows, only formally, since the same figures can be found in the regulatory documents of different years. The criteria for the scientific validity of norms and cost standards are their creation of financial conditions for the effective operation of units of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine, the relationship between the amount of funding and the effectiveness of operational and rescue activities, and its final results.

The introduction aims at presenting the domain we analyze. On this occasion, several possibilities for mounting air heaters for industrial buildings are specified. Their operating methods are specified, with emphasis on the case of the reluctance synchronous motors. The mathematical model of these motors, written in the two axes theory, is detailed below; the significance of the quantities used is specified. With the help of this model, a Matlab program was carried out, for simulating the dynamic regimes, specific to the driving motor of air heaters. The paper presents a series of simulations, obtained by means of this program. The simulations regard a fault situation, materialized in an accidental decrease of the motor supply voltage. The graphs obtained refer to the main electrical, mechanical and magnetic quantities specific to the motor. They are accompanied by several relevant conclusions that emphasize the behavior of the motor in the analyzed dynamic regime. The following aspects are regarded: the evolution of the operation point, the influence on the phase current, the influence on the magnetization flux and the rotor speed. These characteristics were experimentally confirmed (indirectly) by emphasizing, in steady state, the evolution of the phase current for the initial and fault cases. The paper ends with references, organized in the order of citations.

Published: February 2025

Financial modeling plays a critical role in evaluating pricing mechanisms in global carbon trading and markets, enabling stakeholders to make informed decisions that align with climate goals and economic priorities. As carbon trading becomes a pivotal tool for mitigating greenhouse gas emissions, the complexity of pricing mechanisms requires robust analytical frameworks to assess their efficiency, fairness, and scalability. This paper explores the application of financial modeling techniques to evaluate carbon pricing strategies, including cap-and-trade systems, carbon taxes, and offset markets, focusing on their impact on market stability and environmental effectiveness. The study highlights the use of quantitative financial models, such as stochastic optimization and game theory, to simulate carbon market dynamics and predict price behavior under varying regulatory and economic scenarios. By incorporating factors such as emission caps, compliance costs, and market liquidity, these models provide insights into price volatility and risk management strategies. Additionally, the integration of machine learning algorithms enhances the predictive accuracy of pricing models, offering real-time adjustments to market fluctuations. This paper also examines the role of financial modeling in assessing the effectiveness of carbon pricing mechanisms in incentivizing emission reductions. Models are utilized to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of carbon credits, the distributional impacts of pricing policies, and their alignment with global climate commitments, such as the Paris Agreement. Furthermore, the study explores the implications of linking regional carbon markets and the challenges of harmonizing pricing mechanisms across jurisdictions. Despite the advancements in financial modeling, challenges remain, including data availability, the complexity of global market structures, and regulatory uncertainties. The paper proposes a strategic roadmap for enhancing the robustness of financial models through improved data integration, interdisciplinary collaboration, and regulatory support. The findings underscore the importance of financial modeling as a decision-support tool in global carbon markets, driving transparency, accountability, and sustainability. By optimizing pricing mechanisms, financial modeling contributes to the efficient allocation of resources and the acceleration of global efforts to combat climate change.
WOMEN'S LONG-TERM SAVINGS ONCRYPTOCURRENCY-A TOOL FOR THEIR DIGITAL FINANCIAL INCLUSION
Authors: A Ruban Christopher. , Nithya Dr. A.R.
Published: February 2025

Women explicitly showed lower rates of financial inclusion than men in many developing nations like India earlier due to variety of factors, such as physical and cultural constraints and lack of access to financial services. But now, digital financial services can help close this gap by giving women the access to financial services from the convenience of their own homes. Women can manage their own accounts, conduct transactions, and save money by gaining access to financial services through digital methods without depending on males or middlemen. Increased financial control and independence are important effects of this digital financial inclusion on women's long-term savings. Thus, “Digital financial inclusion” can be defined broadly as digital access to and use of financial services by excluded and underserved populations. In this paper we explore the seven socio demographic characteristics like age, education, stream of education, income, place of education both school and college and nature of employment of the women, more precisely the women teaching fraternity, for their investment on digital virtual currency. The study reveals that, only 5% of the women teachers have invested in cryptocurrency. The majority of the women teachers who have invested in cryptocurrency are between the age group of 31-40 and their nature of employment is only from Private Institutions and none from Government or Government-Aided Institutions. Most notably women teachers who earn more than 40k and above show zero crypto-asset ownership, while teachers whose salary in less than 10k have invested in cryptocurrency comprises 14.28%. Statistical significance test using Chi-Square test of intendency concludes that place of school Education show the significant relationship with the cryptocurrency ownership of the women teachers.
The Role of Social Media Networks in Influencing Public Opinion and Promoting National Values in Jordanian Society: Facebook as a Model
Authors: Nasereddin Dr. Sara Yacoub
Published: February 2025

Social media has emerged as the most influential communication tool, playing a critical role in shaping public opinion and fostering national values. This is particularly evident among young individuals, who constitute the primary demographic of social media users worldwide (Al-Khazaleh & Al-Khresha, 2023). Jordan is recognized as one of the most active countries in social media usage, with a high percentage of its population engaging on digital platforms for news consumption, political discussions, and social interactions (Arab Social Media Report, 2023).

This study examines the impact of social media—specifically Facebook—as a platform for influencing public opinion and reinforcing national values in Jordanian society. A qualitative research approach was adopted, utilizing semi-structured interviews conducted with six Facebook users from Middle East University in Jordan. The findings revealed that Facebook is the most widely used and preferred platform in Jordan, with its accessibility and interactive features significantly shaping political awareness, civic engagement, and cultural discourse (Hammad & Saleh, 2022). Additionally, participants acknowledged that Facebook plays a pivotal role in promoting national identity and values, as it serves as a medium for discussions on social cohesion, governmental policies, and Jordanian heritage (Alsoud & Alshaikh, 2022).

Despite its positive influence, concerns remain regarding the spread of misinformation, online polarization, and the potential for digital echo chambers to limit diverse viewpoints. Thus, understanding the dual impact of social media—both constructive and disruptive—on public opinion and national values is essential for developing digital literacy programs and regulatory measures (Alrawashdeh et al., 2023).

The study evaluates the influence of skill enhancement techniques on workforce productivity, adaptability, job satisfaction, and organizational growth. It emphasizes the importance of integrating learning modules with business objectives to ensure employees are equipped to meet evolving industry demands. The study investigates the relationship between human resource practices, employee quit rates, and organizational performance in the service sector. It found that high skills, employee participation in decision-making and teams, and human resource incentives like high relative pay and employment security were associated with lower quit rates and higher sales growth. High-involvement HR systems help employees develop firm-specific human capital, which is crucial for effective customer service interactions. The study examines the theoretical underpinnings of training and development in human resource management, including theories such as Kirkpatrick's Four-Level Training Model and Kolb's Experiential Learning Theory. It also covers incremental training approaches like micro learning and mentorship, as well as human resource expansion concepts like skill diversification and cross-functional training. Well-designed training programs enhance work performance, retention rates, and employee engagement, according to prior studies. The results and analysis show that incremental training led to an average performance improvement of 28% across all industries, increased productivity by 30%, reduced error rates by 25%, and increased retention rates by 18%. A strong correlation was found between training frequency and skill retention. The findings suggest that HR professionals should prioritize incremental learning techniques like mentorship, micro learning, and digital simulations to maximize employee growth. The study highlights the value of incremental training in expanding human resources and suggests that HR managers create a culture of lifelong learning, integrate technology, personalize training programs, and include coaching and mentoring. Companies should invest in up skilling initiatives, support interdisciplinary learning, evaluate training efficacy regularly, implement incremental training models, and match training to career advancement pathways.
O valor posicional do respeito na Crítica da Razão Prática
Authors: Esteves Julio Cesar Ramos
Published: February 2025

Kant distingue entre vontade, enquanto faculdade legisladora, e arbítrio, enquanto faculdade de executar o que é prescrito como lei. Ele também distingue entre o princípio de judicação da obrigação, através do qual avaliamos a bondade de máximas e de ações, e o princípio de execução da obrigação, que consiste no motivo para agir com base no que é representado como obrigação. Já que o respeito é o personagem principal de um capítulo sobre os motivos da razão prática pura, os intérpretes kantianos o tomam naturalmente como relacionado ao arbítrio e à execução. Em contraposição a isso, interpreto o sentimento do respeito como relacionado à vontade e à legislação, mais exatamente, como um motivo para fazer da lei moral o princípio de judicação supremo e para tomar um interesse por ela. Além disso, mostro que algo análogo ao sentimento do respeito tem de estar presente na relação da lei moral com a vontade de toda criatura racional.
Critical thinking in identity and citizenship education at Omani elementary schools: A new pedagogical framework
Authors: Merah Souad , Al Karasneh Samih M , Tahraoui Ramdane , Jubran Ali M , Said Afkar
Published: February 2025

The aims of this conceptual paper are to explore the incorporation of critical thinking skills in teaching Identity and Citizenship (IC) in Omani schools and to gauge the levels of readiness among teachers to use innovative teaching pedagogies for fostering critical thinking. It also aims to highlight the utility of the current conventional IC teaching methods vis-à-vis the perceived effect of using student-centered learning approaches, especially the Philosophy for Children (P4C) pedagogy, and their efficiency in fostering critical thinking. A reflective analysis of the literature was utilized to examine and highlight the effects of the pedagogy in use. It was concluded that IC’s teaching style remains very much conventional, as this subject is treated like any other school subject in an exam-oriented system, whereby information is directly disseminated to students with the objective of preparing them to take a written examination in which they might pass or fail. How students understand, perceive, or even apply the taught morals and values has become a secondary concern in the current trend of education. Therefore, a new pedagogy for a better realization of the objectives of the educational philosophy and the educational goals stated in Oman Vision 2040 is sought for this subject. A new learning framework could be proposed that will be based on eliminating the causes of alienation that students usually face while dealing with morals and values disseminated in morality lessons, and also to help teachers use innovative teaching methods to make the subject more relevant in catering to the 21st-century required skills, especially critical thinking.

Published: February 2025

This paper claims that FinTech has great potential to advance coastal areas' sustainable economic growth. By enhancing financial inclusion, supporting green finance, and building a suitable legislative environment, FinTech might significantly help coastal economies to be resilient and sustainable. A bibliometric study was conducted over a 5-year period (2019–2024) utilizing criteria to select the most significant papers on absorptive capacity from two research databases, ISI Web of Science and Scopus. Drawing inspiration from the HistCiteTM and VoSviewer tools, the integration of financial technology (FinTech) into the economic frameworks of coastal communities offers a transformative opportunity for sustainable economic development. FinTech substantially improves financial inclusion, particularly in areas without conventional banking services. FinTech enables small to medium-sized organizations (SMEs) to obtain funding using digital platforms, advancing local businesses and economic sustainability. FinTech bolsters regional economic resilience and entrepreneurship, as industries like fisheries, which are susceptible to environmental variations, frequently determine the economic activity in coastal areas. The existence of FinTech in coastal communities, where sectors like fishing depend on economic activity, is vulnerable to environmental fluctuations.

Este estudo foi realizado no Posto de Inspeção e Abastecimento de Locomotivas da Estrada de Ferro Carajás, operada por uma empresa de mineração, com o objetivo de analisar os aspectos de segurança, visto que diariamente há um grande fluxo de abastecimentos decorrentes das operações logísticas da empresa e, por consequência, os riscos provenientes do diesel, recurso primordial do local. Diante disso, a análise parte do mapa de risco do local, utilizando a Norma Regulamentadora 20 como base, essencial neste ambiente de trabalho. A análise também conta com o auxílio da matriz de risco do local e da matriz GUT elaborada, que contribuem para a formulação do diagrama bow-tie do risco de incêndio. Tais ferramentas permitiram evidenciar o compromisso da empresa em garantir um ambiente seguro, com medidas robustas de prevenção e mitigação de riscos. Essa conscientização e busca contínua por promover um ambiente de trabalho mais seguro trazem reconhecimento para a empresa no mercado capitalista.

A saúde da mulher no Brasil enfrenta desafios amplos, marcados por desigualdades regionais, raciais e socioeconômicas que influenciam o acesso e a qualidade dos serviços. Este estudo explora essas disparidades a partir dos determinantes sociais da saúde e do princípio de integralidade no SUS, que visa promover um atendimento abrangente e holístico. Utilizando uma metodologia de revisão integrativa, foram analisados 13 artigos publicados entre 2010 e 2024, o que permitiu uma análise crítica das condições de saúde feminina em diferentes contextos. Os resultados indicam que mulheres das regiões Norte e Nordeste são mais impactadas pela escassez de infraestrutura e de recursos, enquanto mulheres negras enfrentam barreiras adicionais devido ao racismo estrutural, com alta incidência de violência obstétrica. Além disso, as necessidades de saúde mental das mulheres idosas, especialmente as que vivem em vulnerabilidade social, são frequentemente negligenciadas. A pesquisa conclui que há uma necessidade urgente de políticas públicas mais inclusivas, que sejam sensíveis às realidades locais e promovam uma abordagem integral e equitativa no atendimento à saúde da mulher. Este estudo reforça a importância de práticas de saúde culturalmente adaptadas e de uma abordagem interdisciplinar para garantir que o SUS atenda de forma justa e equitativa as diversas realidades das mulheres no Brasil.

É perceptível que a privação de sono se apresenta como um grande problema de saúde, sendo os estudantes da área médica classificados entre os grupos com maiores fatores de vulnerabilidades para o desenvolvimento dessa problemática, como a presença de estágios que necessitam abdicar do sono noturno e a alta carga horaria de estudos, contribuindo para a má qualidade do sono e desencadeando prejuízos tanto funcionais como cognitivos. Sendo assim o objetivo deste é avaliar a qualidade de sono de estudantes da área médica. A pesquisa foi conduzida por um estudo descritivo e quantitativo, realizado em uma universidade de medicina, localizada na cidade de Porto Velho, Rondônia, no ano de 2024. Onde o público alvo a ser avaliado apresentava faixa etária de 18 a 65 anos, de ambos os sexos e do 2° ao 12° período de medicina. A pesquisa apresentou 293 estudantes matriculados regularmente, tendo o objetivo de interpretar e responder um questionário disponibilizado online, onde contia o Índice de Qualidade Pittsburgh (PSQI-BR) e a Escala de Sonolência de Epworth (ESS-BR), Além disso após a coleta de dados foi realizado a análise utilizando o Microsoft Excel. A pesquisa revelou que 58% dos estudantes apresentavam baixa qualidade de sono (PSQI ≥ 5), sendo que 32,3% relataram sonolência significativa (ESS ≥ 10). Houve maior prevalência de distúrbios do sono entre as mulheres (43,2%) em comparação aos homens (39,8%). A maioria dos estudantes de medicina apresentou qualidade de sono insatisfatória, o que reforça a necessidade de intervenções para promover melhores hábitos de sono e, consequentemente, melhorar o desempenho acadêmico e a saúde geral dos estudantes.

This study focuses on the digital divide in youth education in Meishan City in the digital age. With the deep integration of digital technology into the field of education, there is a significant gap in the digitalization process of education between urban and rural youth in Meishan City. Urban youth have an advantage in learning with a complete network infrastructure and abundant digital resources; However, young people in rural and remote areas are constrained by factors such as network signals, bandwidth, tariffs, and resource scarcity, and face the dilemma of accessing high-quality digital education resources. Research has found that imbalanced economic development, uneven allocation of educational resources, and socio-cultural differences are the main factors causing the digital divide, which not only hinders the personal development of young people but also exacerbates educational inequality. To this end, this study draws on domestic and foreign experiences and proposes measures such as increasing policy support and resource investment, conducting digital skills training and literacy improvement activities, and building a multi-party collaborative mechanism to narrow the digital divide in youth education in Meishan City and promote educational equity. The research results can provide reference for the local government to formulate policies and schools to carry out teaching practices, and help promote the development of education equity in Meishan City.

Authors: Yang Binru
Published: February 2025

This paper discusses the significance of adolescent depression and anxiety issues and their threat to global public health. With the development of society, the age of onset for mental health disorders in adolescents has become younger. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 20% of adolescents worldwide are affected by mental disorders, including depression and anxiety. These disorders not only limit adolescents' participation in social activities but also hinder their physical and mental health growth. Therefore, this article focuses on several approaches to addressing adolescent mental health issues, including antidepressant medications, AI-assisted wearable devices, animal-assisted therapy, and prevention programs. The article emphasizes the importance of addressing these issues during adolescence to prevent future diseases and disabilities, and presents a variety of solutions aimed at improving adolescent mental health through comprehensive treatment methods and preventive measures.

Published: February 2025

This study aimed to examine the teaching strategies employed to teach natural sciences at a science museum in Pretoria, South Africa. Science museums have collaborated with the Department of Basic Education to enhance the quality of science education in the country. A qualitative case study design was adopted to gather data from the science museum. Using a purposive sampling strategy, two education officers responsible for teaching and learning at the museum were selected as participants. Data collection methods included semi-structured interviews and observations. The findings revealed that education officers predominantly used a teacher-centred approach and a show-and-tell method to teach natural sciences. Additionally, lecturing and questioning formed a significant part of their instructional strategies. The study also noted the reliance on one-way communication methods, where learners were passive listeners and only engaged in conversation when prompted by questions. The article recommends training education officers to adopt facilitation roles and explore more effective teaching strategies. Such training could enhance the quality of natural sciences teaching and foster active engagement and deeper learning among learners.
