Financial Sustainability in Emerging Markets: An Investigation of Determinants in the Pension Fund Companies
Authors: Ajeng Alifiana Mia , Najiyya Wildanun
Published: June 2024

The major goal of this article is to pinpoint the variables affecting the financial sustainability of pension fund companies that comprise emerging markets. The pension fund company data comes from Indonesia and was registered with the Indonesia Financial Service Authority (OJK) in 2020–2022. The sample was obtained using a purposive sampling method, which resulted in 14 pension fund companies. This quantitative research was done using a descriptive statistical approach. The data analysis technique used is regression analysis with Ordinary Least Square. The findings of this study support hypothesis 2 (H2), which states that there is a partial positive influence between the liquidity variable and finance sustainability. Meanwhile, efficiency (H1) and profitability (H3) do not affect financial sustainability. This study also reveals that the combination of efficiency, liquidity, and profitability variables simultaneously (H4) has a greater impact on financial sustainability than their partial effect on pension fund companies in Indonesia.

Jelen tanulmányban a Biztosítás és Kockázat című folyóirat első 10 évfolyamának cikkeit vizsgáljuk, kétféleképpen bemutatva a mostanra már szép nagyra nőtt társszerzői hálózatot. Az első változatban egy egyszerű gráfot láthatunk, melyben az izolált csúcsoknál jóval nagyobbak azok a csúcsok, melyek olyan szerzőket jelölnek, akik másokkal közösen publikáltak: minél több társszerzője van egy szerzőnek (azaz, minél nagyobb a gráfbeli fokszáma), annál nagyobb az őt ábrázoló csúcs mérete. A második változat pedig egy multigráf, melyben a közösen írt cikkek számát párhuzamos élek bevezetésével jelenítjük meg. Vizsgáljuk továbbá a társszerzői hálózatban található fontosabb közösségeket, rámutatva az említett évfolyamokban szereplő 190 szerző kutatási együttműködésére, amelynek eredménye 211 tudományos dokumentum. Végül megvizsgáljuk a kulcsszavak hálózatát is. Szövegesen és vizuálisan is bemutatjuk, hogy a 10 évfolyam cikkeiben előforduló 409 különböző kulcsszó jól tükrözi azt a sokféleséget, amellyel a folyóirat tájékoztatja a megcélzott szakmai közösséget.

The authors in this article analyze the migration situation in the Russian Federation and state the existence of problems with foreign citizens and stateless persons in terms of the application of parole. After analyzing the judicial practice, the authors come to the conclusion that if a convicted foreign citizen does not have a permanent place of residence on the territory of the Russian Federation; as well as appropriate confirmation of the exercise of control by the state of nationality, the courts refuse to grant parole or to replace the unserved part of the sentence with a milder form of punishment. It is proposed in order to replenish the labor force, the shortage of which is currently acutely felt in the country, to use this category of persons individually for referral to correctional centers that have concluded agreements with employers.

Relevance of migration issues and the need for the development of the state policy in the indicated sphere have appeared shortly after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Starting from the 1990s, the migration sphere has witnessed multiple changes that affected, inter alia, the features of migrant adaptation and integration in the Russian environment. The development of the social life and economic relations has resulted in the origination of new demands of the society and new goals for migrant arrival in the Russian Federation. In 2022 alone, 3.47 million migrants arrived in the country, which is by 871 thousand people more than in 2021. The development of migration predetermines the importance of the assurance of security of the society and avoidance of an increase in the number of offenses and crimes, application of mechanisms that ensure protection of interests of each society member and elimination of conflicts between representatives of different ethnic groups, which is impossible without migrant adaptation and integration in the Russian society including in the cultural and ideological aspect. In this article, the author presents an analysis of measures implemented within the framework of the migration policy for adaptation and integration of foreign citizens in the Russian Federation, offers areas of solution of cultural and ideological problems encountered by migrants, the society and state in the course of adaptation and integration.

Published: June 2024

When doing scientific research including animal experiments, it is crucial to prioritize ethical issues due to the many moral, legal, and scientific aspects involved. This study provides an in-depth analysis of the core ethical concepts and regulations that govern experimental investigations using animals. The 3R principle (replacement, reduction, refinement), which prioritizes the ethical treatment of animals especially in scientific research, is emphasized. Tracing the historical development of ethical rules sheds light on the important events that shaped the creation of important principles. The review examines the complex relationship between scientific investigation and ethical concerns, focusing on the idea of informed consent in relation to animal care. Also, this explores the ethical dilemmas that arise from experimental techniques and sheds light on how researchers ensure the well-being of the animals involved. The crucial importance of an ethical committee is emphasized in guaranteeing strict ethical standards. The examination of ethical concerns related to certain animal models, and analysis of differing perspectives among the scientific community is done. At the same time, it examines the latest developments in experimental animal research, providing insight into the future of ethical issues in this ever-evolving area. To summarize, this review not only synthesizes the main discoveries and ethical concerns in experimental animal studies but also highlights potential future paths. It supports the idea of continuing to balance scientific progress in the field of experimental animal studies with ethical obligations by suggesting additional areas of research and ethical review.
Sergio Rodrigues e o Sistema SR2
Authors: Ogawa Wanderson Leão Afonso , Caixeta Eline Maria Mora Pereira
Published: June 2024

O Sistema de Pré-fabricação SR2, desenvolvido no fim da década de 1950 pelo arquiteto Sergio Rodrigues, foi apresentado no Museu de Arte Moderna do Rio de Janeiro (MAM Rio) em 1960, na exposição Casa Individual Pré-Fabricada. Concebido para resolver um problema pessoal, teve um novo direcionamento quando o arquiteto percebeu que essa poderia ser uma solução para atender uma questão cotidiana: a da unidade habitacional individualizada. No limite teórico-metodológico, o artigo apoia-se em Michel de Certeau, a fim de evidenciar as questões prosaicas respondidas por Rodrigues com o SR2. O texto reflete sobre a unidade habitacional executada no MAM Rio através de análises que envolvem sua origem e o projeto. Em seguida, para investigar alguns dos usos que o sistema possibilitou, três casos são estudados: o edifício OCA II, no campus da Universidade de Brasília; a segunda sede social do Iate Clube de Brasília; e a primeira sede do Country Clube de Goiás. Além de revisão de literatura, foram realizadas visitas de campo ao Instituto Sergio Rodrigues e aos três casos mencionados para coleta de material. A produção de Rodrigues com o SR2 provocou algumas discussões, as quais podemos sintetizar na relação entre o cotidiano, o planejado e o inusitado.
TRANSLATION IDEOLOGY ON VOCATIVE VERBAL EXCHANGES IN PHILLIP PULLMAN’S NOVEL
Authors: Sipayung Kammer Tuahman , Wafa Ali
Published: June 2024

Translation’s core ideology lies in guiding translators' decision-making processes, particularly concerning the social and cultural aspects of source and target texts. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach. It delved into the translators’ ideological stance in rendering an English novel into Indonesian, focusing on vocative verbal exchanges. The analysis employed Miles and Huberman's interactive data analysis techniques (2014), incorporated Molina and Albir's translation procedures (2002), as well as Newmark's methods (1988). Venuti's theory (2003) was utilized to unveil the translator's ideology. Findings reveal that the translator is inclined towards foreignization at the word and phrase levels. This was juxtaposed with a preference for domestication at the clause and sentence levels. This suggests a nuanced approach, where the translator aimed to preserve the source text's essence in smaller linguistic units while enhancing readability in larger units for the target audience. In essence, the translator strategically positions themselves between the source and target languages, neither leaning too closely towards one nor the other, striving for a neutral stance that upholds the original message while ensuring accessibility for the target readers.

THE MOTHER TONGUE IN NATION-BUILDING: THE (UN)MAKING OF A POSTCOLONIAL NATION
Authors: Tupas Ruanni
Published: June 2024

Mother tongue, used as the language of instruction, is considered vital for effective pedagogy, individual rights recognition, and social justice. It offers marginalized students a more efficient pathway to learning compared to foreign or hegemonic national languages like English or Filipino. Mother Tongue-Based Multilingual Education (MTB-MLE) challenges systems favoring colonial languages and asserts the importance of children's first languages. However, the political and ideological dimensions of mother tongue are often overlooked, as it can be manipulated to serve specific agendas in nation-building efforts. While some analyze its linguistic aspects, this paper delves into its political nature, exploring how it intersects with ideologies shaping nation-building and potentially nation-destroying processes. This article asserts that the mother tongue serves not only as a learning tool but also as a contested political concept vital for envisioning inclusive nation-building. By examining MTB-MLE in the Philippines, it explores how the mother tongue influences nation-making, as well as reimagining and shaping national identities.

Authors: Lemkes Ante C. , Struijs Sascha Y. , Littel Marianne , Ekkers Wilfried D. J. , van den Berg Julia F.
Published: June 2024

In this study, we explored whether making Eye Movements (EM) during the recall of intrusive images related to alcohol craving reduced the vividness and emotionality of these images and their ability to elicit craving. In a randomized controlled experiment in a treatment facility for substance use disorders in the Netherlands, 50 inpatients with alcohol use disorder were asked to recall mental images related to alcohol craving while simultaneously making EM (n= 29) or keeping a steady gaze (n= 21). Vividness and emotionality of the mental images and craving were measured. Making EM had no significant effect on the vividness and emotionality of images related to alcohol craving, nor on their ability to elicit craving. Our findings do not support the notion that EM reduce alcohol craving.
Metsovo Lung: History of Population Environmental Exposure

Published: June 2024

The historical course of the Metsovo Lung phenomenon began to be investigated in the 1980s when extensive pleural calcifications causing malignant mesothelioma appeared at a high frequency beyond expectation. It was not possible to explain their frequency. This finding reasonably raised the question of whether it was indeed tuberculous pleurisy or something else. The biopsies carried out confirmed that these were tremolite asbestos fibres. These fibres were derived from a shielding material containing asbestos. This is a global phenomenon according to which the entire population of Metsovo was exposed to asbestos, without knowing it, from a traditional shielding material. The abandonment of the material and its non-use brought about a gradual reduction of the phenomenon, which also marks the reduction of mesothelioma.

Published: June 2024

Traditional wells for domestic use are an important source of water for part of the population of the Abidjan district. It is essential to study the quality of this water. That is why this study was initiated, with the aim of studying the impact of materials used to protect traditional domestic wells on water quality. To carry out this study, we identified five (5) traditional wells by means of a survey. Four (4) of these wells had protective materials such as car tyres, metal drums, PVC plastic and cement bricks in the casing. The fifth, the control well, has no protective materials. Their water was subjected to physico-chemical analysis. These analyses were carried out using French standard methods and those described by Rodier et al. Iron and silica, which are chemical constituents of car tyres and bricks, and PVC plastic exclusively in the case of silica, were found in very high concentrations in the water whose casings were made from these materials, compared with the control well. In fact, the control well is uncased and shares the same geological nature as the other cased wells. The various chemical elements (silica and iron) are found in this water through dissolution and oxidation reactions. The physico-chemical parameters of the wells with casings were compared with those of the control wells using the non-parametric Mann-Whitney test, and the well waters were divided into groups using Principal Component Analysis (PCA).

A community-based study was carried out among females in Al-leith province, Saudi Arabia to identify the acceptance of females to be vaccinated against Human Papillomavirus (HPV). We interviewed 315 females in ages from 11 to 26, the target group of HPV vaccination. The relevant data were collected using a simple questionnaire. The findings illustrated that majority of participants were in age group (15 – 26 years), the actual target of vaccination against HPV, most of participants were Saudi females, and most of them were not married. It was found that less than half (43.8%) of females were willing to receive the vaccine, and the rest of the total females did not accept vaccination. The study concluded that still high percentage of females in Saudi Arabia did not accept vaccination against Human papillomavirus, the issue that need more efforts to increase the percentage of vaccination acceptance.
Le Plafonnement de Carrière: Source de Stress au Travail dans les Grandes Entreprises au Cameroun
Authors: Essomme Innocent
Published: June 2024

This study shows the consequences of career plateauing on the professional stress experienced by employees of large companies in Cameroon. A questionnaire survey of 160 employees of these companies and a Pearson correlation test led to the results that career plateauing is real in large Cameroonian companies and does not have a systematic effect on all manifestations of work-related stress. However, employees who have already spent more than six years in their job are very anxious about their future in the company and feel dizzy at work. What's more, those who feel blocked in their progress have more difficulties in their relationships at work and appear to be uncooperative with the company's decisions. We recommend that the managers of these companies promote the employability of people with ceilings; give an important place to the monitoring and evaluation of the career management practices implemented in their companies; and finally, organise regular information and training seminars on career management within the company.

This study was carried out in the 4705 hectare Agbo 2 classified forest in central-eastern Côte d'Ivoire. The aim of the study was to improve knowledge of the ecological value of the Agbo 2 classified forest by installing surface sampling devices and carrying out itinerant inventories. These two methods were used to identify 121 plant species, 13 of which are vulnerable species on the IUCN red list. The flora of the mature stage of Teak and Gmélina plantations resembles that of forests enriched with Fraké, which, in addition to forests enriched with Bété, are floristically similar to natural forests. Among the restored areas, the forests enriched with local species (Bété and Fraké) are richer and more diverse than the plantations with exotic species (Teak and Gmélina). Degraded forests and restoration areas harbor species that should be taken into account in the studies, as they represent an ecosystem with a wide range of species with important values for the well-being of populations. Restoring degraded areas by enrichment would be the appropriate method for a return to the original vegetation.

The research investigated the effectiveness of using an E-training environment in developing Capstone teaching skills among STEM teachers. To achieve the aim of the research, the researchers applied the one groups' quasi-experimental design and utilized three instruments as follows;1) list of the Capstone teaching skills; 2) Pre-Post achievement test developed by the researcher and implemented before and after applying the training content; 3) The observation card to observe acquiring the Capstone teaching skills determined by the researcher and they are two main fields of the needed skills, (EDP Field, and Process management field) comprising eight (8) main skills that are subdivided into sixty four (64) subskills required for the STEM teachers, after applying the training content through the E-training environment. The participants were chosen randomly (N=27) at Obour STEM School Cairo Governorate, Egypt. the researchers selected the quasiexperimental design in terms of the research population, the sample of the research, is one experimental group, and the methodology of the research. The researchers relied on pre-and post-testing procedures applied on the research group, the first test has been posted to the trainees after collecting their responses on the training needs survey or a questionnaire that included 68 questions to identify their needs, the pre-test comprises 70 questions about the 64 sub-skill, then after that the training needs have been determined based on the pre-test results, through a month the training has been held Online on the Microsoft Teams as a main platform, by the end of the training sessions, the trainees have been asked to solve the post-test which is reapplied once again after another month .Therefore, the current research attempted to investigate the effectiveness of using the E-Training environment based on the SOLE technique as (the independent variable) in developing the Capstone teaching skills as (the dependent variable) among STEM teachers. Quantitative results showed that There is statistically significant difference at the level of (a<=0.05) between the pre-test and postachievement test of the experimental group on developing Capstone teaching achievement of STEM teachers in favor of the post -test. And also, there is statistically significant difference at the level of (a<=0.05) between the pretest and post- observation card of the experimental group on developing Capstone teaching skills of STEM teachers in favor of the post -test. So, the researchers recommended employing the E-Training environment based on the SOLE technique in developing the Capstone teaching skills among STEM teachers in Egypt.

Introduction: Landfill workers are frequently exposed to a multitude of deleterious factors that can adversely affect their health. These include environmental contaminants such as dioxins, furans, biogas, and heavy metals, as well as occupational hazards like noise, vibration, and extreme temperatures. Aims and Scope: This pilot study, conducted at the Integrated Solid Waste Management Facility of Fili (OEDA Filis), aimed to measure environmental risk parameters and assess their effects on the cardiovascular health of workers. Method: Data collection involved questionnaires to record personal history and job positions, clinical examinations, and blood lipid tests. Cardiovascular risk (Heart Score) was evaluated based on standards set by the Hellenic Heart Association, which incorporated the Heart Score using Greek data. Results: The majority of employees at OEDA Filis were married men from lower socioeconomic backgrounds, with 77% reporting no chronic health issues and self-assessing their health status as good. Most subjects had body mass indices categorized as either normal or overweight. Environmental assessments identified elevated concentrations of PM10 and phenanthrene in the workplace, though levels of benzo(a)pyrene and naphthalene were within safety thresholds. About 21% of the workforce was identified as being at considerable risk for cardiovascular disease. No statistically significant correlation was found between the Heart Score and job positions (p = 0.3), indicating that occupational role alone does not predict cardiovascular risk. However, elevated Heart Scores were more frequently observed among positions with greater exposure to environmental and occupational hazards. Conversely, office workers, who had reduced exposure to exhaust, noise, and air pollutants, exhibited lower Heart Scores. A univariate analysis showed a significant association between occupational stress and Heart Score (p = 0.037); workers under high stress had significantly lower levels of highdensity lipoprotein (HDL) (p = 0.006). Additionally, a significant correlation existed between the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and lower Heart Score risk index values (p = 0.012), highlighting the protective impact of PPE in mitigating cardiovascular risk among exposed workers. Conclusion: This study enhances understanding of the associations between cardiovascular risk and exposure to environmental and occupational hazards at landfill sites. It underscores the critical need to establish a specialized observatory for continuous monitoring of occupational health and safety at these locations. Such an observatory should include regular health assessments for workers and systematic monitoring of environmental pollutants. Furthermore, the study advocates for initiatives aimed at improving the cardiovascular health of landfill workers, underscoring their necessity in this high-risk occupational environment.
