Authors: Anandhi E. Dayana , Velmurugan G.
Published: July 2024

Research on financial well-being has recently captured the attention of academics, financial analysts, and practitioners. It is indicated by research that individuals with elevated levels of financial well-being demonstrate greater resilience in facing financial shocks, pursue opportunities for economic progress, and report higher overall satisfaction. However, despite the growing number of publications and research efforts on financial well-being, examination of literature regarding individual financial well-being remains underdeveloped and fragmented. Moreover, there are few studies that examine the influence of key factors on individuals' well-being and acknowledge the significance of financial well-being's objective and subjective components. To address this gap, our study focuses on individual financial well-being by employing a systematic literature review and bibliometric analysis. Data obtained from the Scopus database were examined using R-Packages and VOSviewer. Our goal is to systematically review the key factors determining a person's financial well-being and discuss how these factors enhance individual well-being. The significance of both subjective perceptions and objective financial metrics for overall well-being is also highlighted. The paper presents a comprehensive analysis of various theories used in understanding financial well-being, thereby expanding the scope of research in this field. Our contribution includes proposing a novel definition based on literature evaluation of one's financial well-being, which considers an individual's present and future desired living standard, as well as their aspirations for financial freedom. The work aims to encourage further research on financial well-being, informing potential interventions by governments and financial institutions.

Published: July 2024

Assessing consumer attitudes towards organic skincare products is crucial in today’s competitive market. As people become more conscious of synthetic substances, animal suffering, and environmental impacts, the appeal of organic skincare is greater than ever. This paper investigates how consumer attitudes regarding organic skin care products translate into purchase intentions and subsequent shopping behaviour. This research emphasises the impact of health, environment, and appearance consciousness on customer attitudes towards organic skin care products. This study investigated the influence of experience and subjective standards in regulating the relationship between purchase intention and purchase conduct. The data were collected by random sampling. There were 498 valid replies to the survey. The Hayes process approach, psychometric characteristics, and hypothesis testing addressed the study’s research concerns. SPSS 25 and AMOS 22 were used to analyse the data. According to the study, health, environmental, and appearance consciousness are precursors to attitudes towards organic skin care products. When an attitude is created, it is converted into a buying intention, which leads to actual behaviour. Past experience has a substantial moderating impact on purchasing intention and behaviour. On the other hand, subjective norms fail to moderate the same relationship. The limitations and future scope of the study are discussed further in the paper’s body.

Published: July 2024

The article discusses the development and implementation of logistics chains to address the evacuation of casualties from aviation incidents. It considers publications that propose solutions for selecting forced landing sites for civil aviation vehicles and optimizing evacuation routes. Medical helicopter evacuation offers several benefits, including reducing the pre-hospitalization period, transporting casualties from hard-to-reach areas directly to high-level trauma centres, and providing extended pre-hospital care by highly qualified aeromedical teams. However, it is important to note that the use of helicopters carries risks to the crew's life, requires significant financial expenditures, and specialized equipment. The effectiveness of medical aviation helicopter usage depends on geographic and demographic trauma factors, the condition of the road network in the region, the proximity of emergency stations, helicopter bases, trauma centres, and the level of coordination between rescue services and hospital specialists. The evacuation of casualties from the scene of an incident using medical aviation helicopters can significantly reduce mortality in cases of severe injuries. The article explores the use of various technologies, such as computer and mathematical modelling, to optimize evacuation speed for civilian and military casualties during armed conflicts or emergencies. It examines international experience in managing transportation, particularly air transport, among participants in international chains/networks.

The impact of conflict on contemporary global dynamics: Integration, globalisation, and polarisation trends
Authors: Artemenko Yaroslav , Hovorov Yevhenii , Maksymova Iryna , Kostiuk Vitalii , Zienkin Mykhailo
Published: July 2024

The Russian war against Ukraine has multi-component and multifaceted consequences. The armed intervention of Russia accelerated the process of Ukraine’s European integration and promoted pro-European solidarity in the country. The war has led to a massive reorientation of Ukrainian society toward the Western direction of development and strengthened the idea that the movement toward the European Union is inevitable and irreversible. At the same time, Kyiv and Brussels strengthened their solidarity with the aggressor country. The decision to nominate Ukraine as a candidate for membership in the European Union is a sign of the EU member states’ push for Ukraine as Europe’s only response to Russia’s neo-imperialist policy of aggression. The decision is of a political and security nature, as Ukraine protects the European Union from the Kremlin’s continental expansion, and in fact, the political system and the future of the European Union are currently in the hands of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. This is the main importance of Ukraine’s European integration into the European Union, а також the main difference from other candidate countries – Moldova, Georgia and the Balkans. Unfortunately, Russia’s expansion has clearly had a negative impact on Ukraine’s European integration. Ukraine has suffered enormous human, economic and financial losses. The war started by the Putin regime is one of the deadliest wars in Europe since World War II. The relevance of this topic lies in the fact that the process of globalization, integration and polarization in its current form has many misunderstandings and contradictions that have become a source of tense discussion in academic and business circles, as well as in international forums. Different opinions, sometimes directly opposite, are often confronted, evaluated, and assumptions are developed.

Authors: Bondarchuk Olena , Balakhtar Valentyna , Pinchuk Nataliia , Pustovalov Ivan , Pavlenok Kateryna
Published: July 2024

This exhaustive examination focuses on the nuanced coping mechanisms utilized by grown-ups in navigating stressful situations. It intricately dissects the multifaceted dimensions of how people perceive stress. In particular, it highlights how people evaluate stress factors as menacing challenges or manageable tasks, and consequentially, how they respond to them. To offer a comprehensive viewpoint, this review undertook a thorough exploration of pertinent research from the DOAJ and EBSCOhost databases, concentrating on literature published within the last decade. The examination encompasses diverse aspects of stress, encompassing its cognitive appraisal, adaptive coping mechanisms, and interventions aimed at alleviating its impact. Stress manifests diversely among individuals, being inherently subjective. Its ramifications can range from severe repercussions to perceived challenges with positive outcomes. Coping mechanisms are deeply rooted in learned behaviors, shaped by familial and past traumatic encounters. Recognizing prevalent stress reactions is crucial for crafting effective coping strategies. Problem-solving and seeking social support rank high among successful coping methods. Emotion regulation tactics also aid in managing stress responses. Conversely, nonadaptive coping mechanisms offer short-term relief but often neglect addressing underlying stressors. This review highlights the pivotal role of coping mechanisms in the realm of stress alleviation among adult populations. Approaches centered on finding solutions, such as active problem-solving and seeking social reinforcement, surface as invaluable assets for individuals navigating through stressful situations. It is imperative to acknowledge that adults possess the autonomy to opt for coping strategies that can efficiently counteract the negative impacts of stress. Through understanding and advocating for these strategies, individuals can refine their stress management prowess, thereby fostering better mental health outcomes and overall holistic well-being.

Published: July 2024

Following the enactment of martial law in 2022, labour relations legislation substantially changed. These revisions were intended to adapt to the changing needs of employers and employees. At the same time, new legislative adjustments were made to tackle the growing trend of remote work and the requirement for employers to hire workers temporarily. This article seeks to highlight the direct impact of the conflict in Ukraine on changes to civil labour regulations in terms of compensation, accountability and leave entitlement. The article conducts a comparative examination of the legal regulations regarding labour relations put into effect in Ukraine during periods of martial law. The author assesses the effectiveness of these regulations from a formal legal standpoint, examining factors such as the robustness of the regulatory framework, the evolution of labour relations legislation in wartime conditions, and the legal standing of the measures implemented, including their temporal implications. The inquiry confirms that regulatory changes in labour relations have been largely effective, emphasising increased flexibility and empowerment for employers and employees. Amid martial law, the amendments focused on improving primary working conditions, regulating the initiation and termination of employment contracts, and managing payments and compensation during military operations. Ukraine has responded to the challenge of non-traditional forms of employment by offering greater flexibility in structuring labour relations and increasing the mobility of workers in exercising their right to work.

Authors: Sour Laura
Published: July 2024

Limited information is available on the factors that impact the flow of international tourists to Mexico, a top global tourist destination in the 21st century. Our study utilizes the Granger causality test in vector autoregressive (VAR) models to examine the potential causal relationship between international trade and international tourism flows with Mexico’s key travel partners from 2012 to 2020. Analysis of data from trade balance and foreign tourist visits to Mexico reveals a Granger causality linking trade balance growth to increased international tourist arrivals from the United States, Argentina, and Italy. Conversely, in the case of Canada, growth in tourist visits influences the trade balance between the two countries. No significant Granger-causality was found for the United Kingdom, Colombia, Spain, Brazil, France, and Germany. These results have important implications for the development of public tourism policies focused on addressing challenges related to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The research examines the role of pedagogical, evaluative, and technological dimensions (PET-D) in the success of e-learning platforms in higher education. Specifically, it focuses on fashion design students at Yogyakarta State University during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study explores how these dimensions contribute to the effectiveness of e-learning by enhancing the quality of information, learner control, beneficial interactions, and appropriate strategies. The study involved 472 fashion design students from Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta who responded to a 28-item questionnaire distributed via Google Forms. The data collected was statistically analyzed, and both the validity and reliability of the instruments were assessed using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) followed by model fit tests. Findings indicate that all three dimensions pedagogy, evaluation, and technology - positively impact the effectiveness of e-learning. Interesting further findings include the positive contributions of a learning community and student satisfaction with available facilities towards online learning success. Additionally, design aesthetics and technology mastery were identified as key to accessing information resources. The study highlights the importance of comprehensive evaluation of online learning implementations, digital content, and accessibility to ensure e-learning success. It underscores the need for digital competencies, tailored teaching methods, and innovative e-learning platforms to enhance educational outcomes during the pandemic. The research is limited to a specific group of students and a single discipline, suggesting the need for broader studies across various fields and institutions. Future research should investigate the long-term impacts of e-learning post-pandemic, the integration of new technologies, and the challenges of digital access to fully understand the potential of e-learning in transforming higher education comprehensively.

In this study, the impact of the implementation of a vertical garden LWS on indoor air quality and thermal comfort in an urban house in Puno City, located in the Collao plateau in the Peruvian Andes, characterized by extreme environmental conditions and low temperatures. The purpose was to evaluate the impact of the LWS vertical garden prototype on the environmental comfort of a single-family house located at 3800 m.a.s.l. A vertical garden prototype was built with five 1.5 m long modular planters, oriented to the northeast and implementing a drip irrigation system. The air quality and thermal behavior of the vertical garden inside the house were compared, demonstrating its positive effect on thermal comfort and air quality. CO2 concentration decreased significantly from 489.37 ppm to 445.10 ppm in the garden. Also, the levels of total volatile organic compounds (TVOC) and formaldehyde (HCHO) were significantly reduced, showing the effectiveness of the garden in absorbing atmospheric pollutants. Likewise, an increase in average temperature from 16.49°C to 18.07°C and an increase in relative humidity from 41.83% to 48.81% was observed, suggesting that the garden contributes to mitigating low temperatures. In addition, the modular augmentation of a planter was found to contribute to improved indoor air quality. These results highlight the viability of this technology as a sustainable solution to optimize the indoor environment. It was also observed how the LWS vertical garden adds an aesthetic and spatial dimension to indoor spaces, enhancing spatial perception through the introduction of vertical vegetation and dynamic interaction with natural light.

Published: July 2024

The academic literature provides substantial evidence that customer orientation and innovation capability directly enhance the performance of SMEs. However, there is a gap in understanding the potential synergies between customer orientation and innovation capability within SMEs. This paper aims to explore how these two variables interact to influence the overall performance of SMEs. To achieve this, a quantitative survey was conducted with 98 managers of Moroccan SMEs operating in diverse sectors, including manufacturing, services, and commerce. The collected data were analyzed in two steps. First, an exploratory factor analysis was performed using "SPSS" to identify the underlying dimensions of the studied variables. Then, a confirmatory analysis using partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) with "SmartPLS 4" was conducted to test the research hypotheses and validate the proposed relationships between the variables. The findings of this study revealed that the development of customer orientation positively and directly impacts the performance of Moroccan SMEs, enhancing their ability to meet customer needs and expectations more effectively. Additionally, innovation capability was found to partially mediate this relationship, indicating that customer orientation stimulates innovation, which in turn improves SME performance. These findings have important managerial and theoretical implications. They suggest that SME managers should invest in customer-centric strategies and encourage innovation within their organizations to improve performance. Furthermore, these results enrich our understanding of the dynamics between customer orientation, innovation, and SME performance, underscoring the importance of considering these two variables together to enhance SME performance.
