Analysis of k-food franchises in Thai market focusing on the consumption behavior of Thai generation Y and generation Z in Bangkok metropolitan region
Authors:   , Siripiyaphat Vajirawit
Published: June 2024

These days, fans everywhere are enamored with the Korean Wave (Hallyu). South Korean administrations have highlighted Korean cuisine (K-food) as one of their exported cultural products. Localizing K-food abroad might cause misunderstandings among foreigners. Accordingly, franchising has the potential to maintain food authenticity. Thus, the purpose of this thesis was to examine the consumption behavior of Thai Generation Y and Z in relation to Korean franchise businesses in the Bangkok Metropolitan Region (BMR). The first analysis used the theory of planned behavior (TPB) together with a new variable regarding the food consumption behaviors of Koreans and Thais. Then, the examination of how consumer values, familiarity, and country image affect attitudes. Research was conducted using a web-based survey with four hundred respondents. To evaluate the data, descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis were performed at the 0.05 level of statistical significance. The results showed that all variables were significant. Nonetheless, aesthetic value played the most important role in the attitude of consumers. Moreover, the novel finding was that food consumption culture has the most influence on behavioral intentions.

This thesis, centered on Hmong women, delves into their selective adaptation to contemporary challenges, particularly in education and employment. Using document research, a survey, and fieldwork this study draws from both historical data and firsthand accounts. These findings highlight significant disparities in educational attainment and employment opportunities when compared to the national average. Notably, issues of linguistic barriers, cultural priorities, and systemic underrepresentation emerge as primary obstacles. This research illuminates the unique socio-economic dynamics faced by Hmong women, offering valuable insights for policymakers, NGOs, and academia. As Vietnam progresses in an ever-changing globalized world, understanding and integrating the nuanced experiences of marginalized communities like Hmong women becomes essential so that no one is left behind.
Equine-Assisted Therapy Pilot Program: A Post-Participation Study of Client Satisfaction
Authors:   Gannon University, Occupational Therapy Doctorate, Alexander Emili B. , Carsone Blair
Published: June 2024

Equine-assisted therapy (EAT) is an emerging practice area that has been shown to decrease negative symptoms in individuals experiencing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). While the research for equine-assisted therapy demonstrates effectiveness in decreasing PTSD symptoms, there is a lack of evidence to verify client satisfaction. The purpose of this mixed-methods study was to evaluate participant satisfaction using the eight-question “Client Satisfaction Survey” and compose recommendations based on participant feedback from a focus group after completing an Equine-Assisted Therapy Post-traumatic stress disorder (EAT-PTSD) program. Two participants attended an EAT-PTSD program that utilized the protocol developed by the Man O’ War project. Both participants attended all sessions and completed pre- and post-measures including the Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist Criterion Assessment, the 16-item Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology Self-Report, informal numerical anxiety ratings, and a focus group for evaluation of program satisfaction and future recommendations. The results show that completion of an EAT-PTSD program decreases negative PTSD symptoms. Additionally, participants had an overall high satisfaction rate after completion of an EAT-PTSD program. Recommendations from program participants for future program delivery include increasing program length, using additional resources like talk and group therapy, and recruiting more participants to take part in the program.

Authors:   Department of Medical Science & Public Health, Bournemouth University, Bournemouth, UK, Sullivan Kezia S. , Hemingway Ann
Published: June 2024

Young people with special educational needs and their families were particularly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, with many parents reporting feeling overwhelmed. This study reports on the outcomes of an equine-assisted learning program piloted in summer 2021, which aimed to improve the wellbeing of families by providing them with a positive group experience. Families attended the Equine-Assisted Learning (EAL) program for either of two sessions, which lasted 2.5 hours each. The Family Relationships section of the Family Quality of Life Questionnaire was filled out before and after the program, as well as at a 2-month follow up. Outcomes were also measured using the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire, which was filled out by referrers for the young people who were the primary referees to the program. There were 14 families participating in the program, and analysis revealed a significant positive impact on family relationships scores at a total level which was maintained at 2 months follow up, as well as at item level for the majority of items in the short-term. There was also a positive change in Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire scores for the young people, although this was non-significant. The results of this pilot study show that a short-term family-focussed Equine-Assisted Learning intervention may be effective for improving family relationships, which contribute to individual wellbeing. A larger scale randomised controlled trial would be beneficial to allow the results to be generalised in the future.
The role of higher education in the development of Arab society
Authors: Al-Haysami Dr. Khadija Ahmed
Published: June 2024

This study examines the role of higher education in the development of the Arab world. The Arab nation is currently facing critical challenges that hinder its progress and threaten its stability and development, primarily stemming from underdevelopment in various forms. The manifestations of underdevelopment can be observed at the individual, societal, and state levels, such as the lack of a unified cultural identity, high illiteracy and poverty rates, imbalanced class structure, and political and economic dependence on external factors.The analysis reveals that the root cause of this underdevelopment lies in the human element - the knowledge, concepts, values, habits, traditions, and modes of thinking and behavior of the people. The differences between advanced and underdeveloped societies are primarily reflected in the human elements rather than the possession of material wealth or technological tools. Therefore, the study highlights the crucial role of higher education in addressing the challenges of underdevelopment and fostering the development of the Arab world by shaping the knowledge, mindsets, and behaviors of the people.
التعليم بعد الثانوي الحكومي والأهلي في البلدان العربية
Authors: صائغ أ.د.عبدالرحمن بن أحمد
Published: June 2024

يزامن دخول العالم في الألفية الثالثة مع ظهور مفهوم العولمة Globalization، والذي ساعد على ظهوره وترسيخه انهيار الاتحاد السوفيتي وصعود الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية كقوة أحادية الهيمنة على المستوى السياسي والعسكري والاقتصادي.
يتجلى تأثير العولمة على الصعيد الاقتصادي بظهور التكتلات الاقتصادية والشركات متعددة الجنسيات، وعلى الصعيد الثقافي بانتشار النمط الحياتي والحضاري الغربي، وخاصة الأمريكي، بشكل واسع على حساب الهويات الثقافية للشعوب.
أمام هذه التحديات التي تفرضها العولمة، لا ينبغي على الدول التهرب منها أو الانعزال عنها، بل عليها استيعابها واستثمار إيجابياتها وتجنب سلبياتها. وتشكل المؤسسات التربوية، وعلى رأسها مؤسسات التعليم العالي، الخطوط الدفاعية الأساسية لحماية الهوية الحضارية للشعوب.
لتحقيق ذلك، يجب على مؤسسات التعليم العالي تبني مفهوم "التربية للمواطنة" المحلية والعالمية Education for Local and Global Citizenship، بهدف إعداد المواطن المنتج القادر على المشاركة في بناء وطنه والتفاعل مع الحضارات الأخرى. وهذا يتطلب إعادة النظر في واقع مؤسسات التعليم العالي لتطويرها وتحسينها بما يؤهلها للاستجابة لتحديات العولمة.

Published: June 2024

يتمثل تطور المجتمع في عصر ثورة المعلومات والاتصالات في اشتمال محاوره على المنتج البشري إلى جانب المنتج المادي، وهو ما يُعرف بالتنمية البشرية. هناك علاقة تفاعلية متبادلة بين المنتج المادي والمنتج البشري، إذ يلعب هذا الأخير دوراً أساسياً في تطوير المنتج المادي، والذي بدوره يفتح آفاقاً جديدة أمام العقل البشري.في ظل العولمة، قد تلاشت الحدود والمسافات وحتى الزمن، وتحول العالم إلى قرية كونية واحدة. في هذا العالم، من يمتلك المعرفة يمتلك الثروة والقوة. لذلك، باتت معايير الجودة عالمية بالنسبة للمنتج المادي والبشري على حد سواء.وفقاً لتقارير البنك الدولي، لن يتمكن السوق العالمي للعمل من استيعاب سوى 30% من السكان في سن العمل، مما يعني أن 70% الباقين سينضمون إلى صفوف البطالة، وسيكون النصيب الأكبر من هذه النسبة من الدول الأقل تقدماً.وعليه، فإن قبول العولمة والتخطيط لمواجهتها بشكل إيجابي وعلمي أمر ضروري، من خلال العمل الشاق على بناء القوة الذاتية وتجهيز أنفسنا بالقدرات والخبرات اللازمة للتعامل مع الواقع الجديد بالأدوات المناسبة.

التقييم الجامعي بين تكريس الرداءة والتخلف والبحث عن الجودة والإبداع
Authors: مولاي بودخيلي محمد
Published: June 2024

هذا السؤال يثير سؤالاً آخر أكثر دقة وعمقًا، وهو لماذا الإصرار على التقويم التربوي رغم سوء عواقبه على المتعلمين من الناحية النفسية والاجتماعية؟ فالامتحانات تخلق جوًا من التنافس المرير الذي يؤثر سلبًا على الطلاب.ويشير المربون إلى أن التعليم الرسمي العام يخدم مصالح طبقة معينة وينشئ بنى مشوهة. لكن هناك من يرى أن إلغاء الامتحانات والتقويم لن يحل المشكلة، فالمجتمعات العربية تميل إلى التنافس والصراع، وعلى المدرسة أن تجهز الطلاب بوسائل لإثبات ذواتهم في هذا السياق.ويُعد التقويم ضروريًا لقياس مدى تحقيق الأهداف التعليمية، والتعرف على نقاط الضعف والقوة، وتحسين المردودية التعليمية. كما أنه يُعد أداة محاسبة لتبرير الإنفاق على التعليم وتوجيه الإصلاحات المطلوبة.
نحو مشاركة فعالة في التنمية الاقتصادية والاجتماعية
Authors: ضحاوى أ.د. بيومى محمد
Published: June 2024

Most countries in the world have realized that traditional educational institutions are no longer capable of fulfilling their responsibilities in light of the information revolution and communications technology. Therefore, distance higher education has become the most appropriate educational system that aligns with these requirements, as it provides new opportunities for adults to pursue university studies, offers flexibility in terms of time and place, and reduces educational costs.
Despite the quantitative and qualitative development witnessed by higher education in the Arab world, it still falls short of responding to the social, economic, cultural, and political requirements. Among its most prominent problems are: weak capacity to accommodate the growing number of students, standardization in curricula and programs, duality of specializations, rigidity and stagnation in structures and programs, imbalance between the functions of teaching, research, and community service, and weak linkage to development plans.
Therefore, the demand for renewing and modernizing higher education has become urgent, and the establishment of distance higher education modalities in Arab institutions is necessary to enable education to respond to development requirements and prepare qualified cadres.

FACTORS INFLUENCING THE INTERACTION OF THIRD-YEAR ENGLISH MAJORS IN SPEAKING CLASSES AT HANOI OPEN UNIVERSITY
Authors: Le Phuong Thao , Giang Van Vu
Published: June 2024

This study investigates external and internal factors affecting students’ interaction in English-speaking classes to develop effective strategies to improve their interaction. The study was conducted among sixteen classes at the Faculty of English at Hanoi Open University, with 86 students in total. Questionnaires and interviews were employed as data collection instruments for the study. The results showed that there are still a large number of ‘passive’ students who are not willing to speak and participate in class activities for different reasons, both coming from external and internal ones. These factors mainly include “self-confidence”, “motivation, and interest”, “prior relationships”, “classroom environment,” “lecturers’ teaching styles”, and “technological devices”. Accordingly, different techniques and teaching methods were recommended to promote students’ interaction during speaking lessons, including “pair work,” “asking-answering questions,” “debate sessions or discussion,” and “interactive multimedia learning.” The study results are expected to help both students and lecturers identify influential factors and explore more effective strategies or teaching methods to enhance students’ participation in English-speaking classes.

Authors: Fernandes Costa Samia , Lipovestky Fernando
Published: June 2024

Introduction: advances in the area of health have been occurring in an accelerated and constant way, and the prolongation of life through organ donation, emphasizes the importance of the knowledge of health professionals on this subject. Brain dead donors are the main source of transplant organs, therefore, measures that promote early identification are essential for appropriate clinical support, Based on this context, it is known that the knowledge by the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) team regarding the pathophysiological alterations triggered by brain death (ME) and the adequate clinical management of the potential donor are associated with a greater number of transplantable organs per donor and the reduction of losses of potential donors due to cardiorespiratory arrest. Objective:identify and describe guidelines for donor care in ME, in addition to analyzing the importance of knowledge about the management of potential organ donors by the ICU team, in the scientific publications available in online databases. Method: data collection was carried out through a search of the online databases: SciELO (Scientific Electronic Library Online) and PUBMED. The articles were downloaded from the aforementioned platforms, and the Zotero was used to make the appropriate citations and references. The research will be made up of published and updated literatures that reflect the importance of knowledge about the management of the potential organ donor with brain death by the ICU team. Results and discusión:we included 17 studies that met the criteria related to the object of study. According to the results achieved, the study allowed to obtain a more detailed vision of the studies arising from the search for data, highlighting categories such as those that reflect the importance of the knowledge of the ICU team, on the proper management of a patient with brain death, which reflect positively on the process of organ and tissue donation. Conclusions: the analysis carried out shows that UC professionals have a low level of knowledge about the diagnosis and management of patients with brain death and the organ donation process, which is due, in part, to the little or no contact they have with this topic during graduation, therefore the need for the ICU team to be trained and prepared to identify physiological alterations and adequately address to the patient diagnosed with EM, in order to contribute to making organ and tissue donation viable. Reducing the time and suffering of those waiting for an organ on the transplant waiting list

Can the new advisory opinion interpreting the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) move us beyond the lethargy of unmet climate change policy needs? The International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea established the gravity of this question by stating that “climate change represents an existential threat and raises human rights concerns”. The Tribunal acted both boldly and conservatively by interpreting UNCLOS as an independent source of international legally binding obligations to address climate change and ocean acidification.

Black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens (Linnaeus)) atau BSF merupakan serangga pengolah sampah organik yang fase larvanya memiliki kandungan nutrisi tinggi sehingga berpotensi sebagai sumber  protein alternatif pakan dan pangan. Astaxanthin merupakan senyawa antioksidan yang lazim diperoleh dari tumbuhan, alga, dan Crustacea. Deteksi astaxanthin pada Bombyx mori (Linnaeus) menjadi titik tolak dugaan bahwa astaxanthin potensial ditemukan pada serangga lain termasuk BSF. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mempelajari pengaruh pemberian jenis pakan sampah organik terhadap pertumbuhan larva BSF dan kandungan astaxanthin pada pupa BSF. Desain penelitian menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap dengan 4 perlakuan jenis pakan sampah organik berupa sisa buah dan sayur (BS), ampas tahu (AT), sisa nasi (N), campuran sisa buah dan sayur, ampas tahu dan sisa nasi (C). Pakan ternak T51 digunakan sebagai kontrol. Setiap perlakuan pakan diulang 3 kali. Parameter penelitian terukur meliputi parameter pertumbuhan larva berupa berat, panjang, dan karakteristik larva; dan parameter kandungan senyawa kimia termasuk astaxanthin pada pupa BSF. Ekstraksi pupa dilakukan dengan metode maserasi triphasic menggunakan kombinasi 5 pelarut berupa n-heptane, etil asetat, acetonitrile, butanol-l, dan akuades, sedangkan identifikasi senyawa dilakukan menggunakan uji kualitatif terpenoid, uji thin layer chromatography (TLC), dan liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa buah dan sayur (BS) paling berpengaruh meningkatkan pertambahan ukuran tubuh larva dengan berat 0,09 ± 0,04 gram/larva dan panjang 1,49 ± 0,31 cm/larva. Analisis LC-MS mendeteksi senyawa dereplikasi lutein, anisodamine, derivat resveratrol, dehydroarginine, dan senyawa dereplikasi astaxanthin dengan massa molekuler sebesar 597,23 m/z pada larva BSF yang diberi pakan buah dan sayur.

THE USE OF PRECIOUS STONES FOR THERAPEUTIC PURPOSES IN MEDIEVAL ANATOLIAN TURKISH CIVILIZATION: THE CASE OF THE RUBY
Authors: Gürbüz Meryem , Doğan Hüseyin
Published: June 2024

Alongside narratives of the rarity, beauty, and value of rubies, owning assets (e.g. state, power) has also been expressed in the literature on medieval Anatolian Turkish literature with reference to rubies. Ruby jewelry is a means of displaying wealth and splendor. However, the use of rubies in the field of medicine explains how this wealth signifies more than just owning a precious stone. Those adorned with jewelry made of rubies were protected against deadly diseases like the plague and malaria, resisted bouts of various chronic illnesses, and lived with a joyful heart. Rubies were believed to be an antidote against poisons, and in cases of poisoning, rubies were consumed as the applied medical method. In addition, wearing ruby jewelry was one of the precautions taken against poisonings. The affinity rulers, nobles, and the very wealthy had toward rubies is also linked to preserving health. Medicines prepared using rubies were employed to treat lung, spleen, and stomach diseases, as well as paralysis and epilepsy. Rubies are one of the most expensive materials used in medicine. Medicines made from rubies demonstrate the occurrence of a luxurious treatment, but the frequency of their use remains uncertain.

It has been established that when modeling power lines are traditionally represented in the form of a - circuits scheme, which leads to methodological modeling errors. To reduce the methodological error of modeling, overhead lines (OHLs) can be presented in the form of equations with distributed parameters, which allows for maximum accuracy. However, distributed line equations contain hyperbolic functions and reduce performance in real-time simulations. Based on this, it is noted that the selection of an adequate mathematical model of overhead lines with the appropriate accuracy of synchronized vector measurements in real time when assessing the state of power lines is an important stage of modeling. The article discusses overhead line models using equations with distributed parameters, a -circuits, an equivalent - circuits and chain -circuits depending on the number of links. The results of calculating the mode based on the modeling accuracy using the example of a 500 kV overhead line are presented, as well as the results of comparing various equivalent circuits. It is shown that when modeling overhead line modes based on the results of PMU measurements, representing power lines as chain circuits with links 50 km or less in length is appropriate, since it makes it possible to obtain a model accuracy that is adequate to the PMU measurements. Methodological errors in modeling ultra-high voltage transmission lines using the equations of long lines have been studied. The obtained results can be used for monitoring, analysis and operational management of the electric power system

In this working, we introduce a Q-DD composed of two QDs. We find that the absorption and dispersion spectra of the light pulse can be changed via the effect of and inter-dot tunnel couplings and probe pumping field of QDs. Then, we employ the steady state and dynamical state in the four-level double QDs system. The slope of dispersion switches from positive to negative. Therefore, both superluminal and Subluminal light propagations can be achieved by simply applying a gate voltage to the double inter dot tunnel coupling. It is also demonstrated that by applying the indirect pump probe field to the probe transition the absorption-free superluminal light propagation is obtained. The results show that by proper tuning of the bias voltage. This structure also indicates that a wide range of linearity from negative to positive can be simply adjusted via a bias voltage, which would result in wide control of signal beam.
