Household Led by Women: Understanding Access to Housing Credit in Latin America and the Caribbean
Authors: Libertun de Duren Nora Ruth
Published: November 2023

The share of Latin American and Caribbean households led by women is rapidly increasing, at the same time as these households are overrepresented among those living in housing deficit. In this study, we looked at whether there is a gender gap in access to housing loans, one of the main tools available to housing. In addition, we explored which are the characteristics of FHHs and to which extent they can have an impact on their access to adequate housing. This study shows how FHHs face greater housing deficits. Our findings indicate that gender gaps in other areas, most importantly in labor markets, are conditioning income and therefore access to financial services. And yet, once results are controlled for observable variables, the gender gap in obtaining a mortgage in LAC shrinks but persists. At all income levels, women had a lower proportion of housing credit ownership than men did at the same income level. That is, a woman would need higher levels of income and education than a man does to achieve the same access to financial services. Likewise, gender gaps are noticeable even when comparing men and women with housing loans. For example, our results indicate that women in the second wealthiest quintile would have the same access to credit as men in the second poorest quintile. Our study also supports the notion that FHHs tend to prioritize housing location over housing, which may explain why FHHs are overcrowded even if not poor.

Authors: Angeli Paraskevi , Maz-Machado Alexander , Madrid Maria Jose
Published: November 2023

The integration of occupational psychology principles into human resource management is considered appropriate to increase employee productivity and the effectiveness of public sector organizations. In Greece, the use of psychological factors in human resource management in the public sector is a relatively new field, as occupational psychology has been included in the training programs of public sector executives only in recent years. In addition, the percentage of public administration executives trained in the use of psychological agents has not yet been investigated. Also, there is a lack of research evaluating the results obtained concerning the efficiency and effectiveness of the organization when managers and heads of departments apply the principles of occupational psychology. This research aims to address this existing gap. 520 Directors and heads of services of the Greek public sector answered an electronic questionnaire designed by the researcher, based on the purpose and research hypotheses they investigated: 1st to have great interest from managers in acquiring relevant knowledge and 2nd that those executives who received relevant training make intensive use of the knowledge they acquired. The electronic questionnaire was sent to all services of the Greek State and was answered by 520 directors and supervisors.The results showed that there is a high percentage of executives who are trained and use psychological factors in human resource management. At the same time, it was found that training in psychological aspects is crucial to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of organizations.

Published: November 2023

Despite being commonly perceived as healthy, approximately 20% of adolescents experience depression. To address this issue, computerized cognitive behavioral therapy (cCBT) has emerged as a potential solution. While cCBT has demonstrated effectiveness in treating depression among adults, its efficacy for adolescents lacks substantial evidence due to challenges in engaging them with the therapy. Thus, this study aims to identify the specific requirements essential for implementing cCBT with adolescents. By conducting semi-structured interviews with five patients, this research not only confirms existing findings but also unveils unique perspectives from the adolescents. Seven factors have been identified which are aesthetic, interactivity, accessibility, therapeutic alliance, exposure, audio, and personalization. The study findings contribute to a deeper understanding of implementing cCBT for depressed adolescents, informing future interventions and therapeutic approaches.

Potential Customer Analysis Based on Gender, Age, Retention, Motivation Using K-Means and Octalysis Gamification Approach
Authors: Marisa Fitri , Agustina Titien , Rusvitawati Devi , Andarwati Mardiana , Hariyanto Rudi , Esti Handayani Endah Tri , Sukić Enes
Published: November 2023

This study aims to analyze the role of gender, age, retention, and motivation on the high and low opportunities of potential customers using the K-means clustering approach and gamification octalysis. This research resulted in several new knowledge contributions. Female customers are the most potential customers in a retail company. On the other hand, male customers are the least potential customers. The motivation to buy is relatively high across all genders and ages, as evidenced by the average "core drive" score, which tends to be high in the customer cluster segment with various age groups. The amount of customer motivation to buy products does not affect purchase retention, which several factors outside this study can cause. Based on customer expectation and customer impression data, low-price offers and product discount offers are dominantly in demand by customers, and this is also in line with the core drive "development" and "scarcity" scores which tend to be high. The age maturity of customers is directly proportional to purchase retention, and this is entirely rational when considering the buying ability of customers where the more mature age group has a higher purchasing power.
Does the Implementation of School Zoning Policies Equalize the Quality of Education? Case Study at the Junior High School Level
Authors: Rohman Arif , Putranta Himawan , Sidik Fajar
Published: November 2023

The problem of inequality in the quality of education began to be resolved with school zoning policies. Departing from this ideal view, the aim was to evaluate the extent to which school zoning policies were able to achieve equal quality education. This quantitative evaluation research focuses on 10 favorite schools with state status in Sleman Regency's junior high school, Yogyakarta Special Region, Indonesia. The data was gathered from literature and observation. The data that has been obtained was analyzed by comparing the conditions of school quality before and after the zoning policy is implemented. This study found that schools that occupy the top ten rankings or favorite schools, both before to and following the school zoning regulation was put into effect, were still in a dominant position compared to other schools. This finding indicates that student input and output before to and following the school zoning regulation was enforced was also relatively the same. This study concluded that the quality before and after the zoning policy was implemented did not show significant changes because the conditions were relatively the same or one could say that they had not changed.

Authors: Ramachandaran Sharmila Devi , Ng Henry , Rajermani Rajermani , Raman Arasu
Published: November 2023

The main purpose of this research is to uncover the factors influencing consumers in Malaysia to embrace electric vehicles (EV). This study aims to provide valuable insights for infrastructure providers, car manufacturers, and regulators, enhancing their understanding of the driving forces behind EV adoption in Malaysia. This study seeks to establish a relationship between environmental factors, price of electric cars, and availability of charging stations in relation to electric vehicle. To achieve this, we employ a quantitative research method. Survey questionnaires of around 400 sets have been distributed online due to convenience purposes of collecting and analysing the data sample. For data analysis, we utilized the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) guides the selection of psychological variables in this study, including attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral control. The findings reveal that the price of EVs and environmental factors significantly influence consumer adoption. This finding contradicts some previous research and highlights the need for more extensive charging infrastructure to promote EV adoption. The study's regression analysis indicates that environmental factors have the most substantial impact on consumer adoption, followed by car pricing. While the availability of charging stations is essential, it does not seem to significantly influence consumer adoption in Malaysia. This study provide recommendation for policymakers and car manufacturers to provide incentives and subsidies to lower EV prices, implementing tax breaks for EV consumers, and collaborating to enhance charging station accessibility. An extensive awareness campaign on the environmental benefits of EV adoption is also advised.
The Simulation of The Propagation of Electromagnetic Waves Through a Material with Various Thicknesses Using Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD)
Authors: Gunawan Vincensius
Published: November 2023

A finite difference time domain method in one dimension (1D-FDTD) is employed to study the properties of the propagation of electromagnetic waves across a medium with finite thicknesses.  In this paper, we simulated the propagation of a Gaussian pulse.  Since we simulated in one dimension,  the absorbing boundary condition (ABC) can be applied to minimize undesirable reflection which generated at the numerical boundaries.  We also implemented total field / scattering field (TF/SF) to ensure the source propagated in only one direction.  The analysis performed by inserting the object with both relative permittivity and permeability values higher than one decreased the pulse’s amplitude.
Análise de Vantagem Comparativa no Agronegócio: uma abordagem empírica a partir dos dez maiores exportadores
Authors: Silva Bruce Wellington Amorin da , Pereira Fernanda Cristina , Santos Luana Inada Souza , Lourenzani Wagner Luiz
Published: November 2023

O agronegócio é um dos principais setores de exportação de grande parte dos países. No Brasil, é o principal, uma vez que é responsável por garantir que a balança comercial esteja positiva, o que é evidência de que o Brasil é especializado na produção e exportação dos produtos desse setor. Isso está associado à eficiência produtiva na alocação dos fatores de produção. É nesse sentido que surge a análise das vantagens comparativas reveladas (VCR), uma abordagem empírica, oriunda da teoria ricardiana, que permite verificar, com base em dados secundários, se o país apresenta VCR na exportação de determinado item ou conjunto de itens. Esse artigo tem como objetivo analisar a VCR do agronegócio dos dez maiores exportadores mundiais. Os resultados indicam que parte desses países não possuem VCR e mesmo aqueles que são os maiores exportadores, não são necessariamente os com maior VCR, como é o caso dos Estados Unidos. O Brasil, especificamente, se destaca como líder nessa análise, o que mostra sua vocação na produção do agronegócio.

Published: November 2023

Os condomínios estão cada vez mais estruturados e oferecendo mais conforto e segurança, ampliando a demanda por esse tipo de moradia no Brasil, crescendo assim a necessidade de uma gestão qualificada para administrar os recursos financeiros representativos que são financiados pelos condôminos. O objetivo geral desta pesquisa é verificar as informações contábeis e legais que o gestor de condomínio residencial deve conhecer para realizar uma gestão competente e gerar uma prestação de conta adequada. A presente pesquisa se classifica quanto aos seus objetivos como descritiva, com abordagem qualitativa dos dados, método do estudo de caso único, que analisou a gestão contábil em condomínio de alto padrão na cidade de Porto Velho-RO. Para a coleta de dados utilizou a pesquisa documental, analisando as demonstrações financeiras de 2021 e 2022. Com o resultado foi percebido que o condomínio realiza uma gestão compartilhada, ou seja, alia a figura do síndico com um apoio contábil de uma secretária. Embora o condomínio seja classificado como uma empresa sem fins lucrativos, considerando as implicações da copropriedade de qualquer negócio, seus relatórios seguem os princípios básicos dos relatórios contábeis. Conclui-se que os gestores não utilizam as informações contábeis para a tomada de decisão, se atendo às suas perspectivas de melhoria, sendo indicada uma maior governança por parte dos condôminos.

Published: November 2023

The Russian-Ukrainian war has had a devastating impact on human life and undermined economies around the world, dealing a serious blow to Ukraine's education system. The Russian-Ukrainian war quickly led to the closure of universities and colleges, schools, and preschools, which should help reduce the total number of deaths from war. The most important war precaution, called "social distance," was to keep children alive. Closing educational institutions to keep children alive during the war entailed changing face-to-face classes to online learning, which necessitated the search for e-learning platforms for effective teacher-student interaction. The Russian-Ukrainian war revealed shortcomings in the management of educational institutions under conditions of war and the need to improve the training of teachers in the perspective of digital technology to adapt to digital education. After the war, distance learning and virtual-digital education may become an integral part of the higher education system. Higher education institutions are already planning educational and experiential strategies to ensure student learning outcomes in the future. The article presents changes and innovations in the educational system, in the management of the educational institution during the Russian-Ukrainian war, outlines models of education during the Russian-Ukrainian war; calculates ways of anti-crisis management of the educational institution in conditions of war.

Published: November 2023

The relevance of researching the synergy of journalists’ acquisition of speech and social-communicative competences lies in the fact that the need to increase the level of speech and social-communicative competences has been brought to the forefront by new economic and social conditions. A high linguistic culture is very important both for a developed economy and for success in management, because, firstly, the solution of many management tasks is based on direct interaction of people in different situations. Second, interpersonal communication is the best way to discuss and solve problems that are characterized by uncertainty and ambiguity. The social task of the modern information society is to educate the younger generation, which is oriented in the field of mass media and “speaks” its language. For a young person of the 21st century, it is very important to know about the events and processes taking place in the world, country, city, to be able to analyze and evaluate these events and processes in order to have their own activity to form a position. The article explores the ways journalists acquire communicative competence; the need for functional and structural-educational models of mass communication means in the acquisition of speech and social-communicative competences by journalists is presented; professional social-communicative competence of journalistic activity is singled out; foundations of the synergy of journalists’ acquisition of speech and social-communicative competences are determined.

Published: November 2023

In the current period, there is a growing interest in finding solutions for the new generation to have a more physically active life. One of the main tools we can act is the physical education lesson. Purpose: This paper aimed to find out if there is a new approach to the physical education class, one with a much more pedagogical (knowledge-based) character than the traditional approach based on competition and physical performance (sport-based). Method: Based on the PRISMA statement’s guidelines, several 105 papers were selected. Results and Discussion: The most commonly used terms to describe this new approach are: "physical literacy", "conceptual physical education" and "fitness education". The main role of this knowledge-based approach is to complete the practical activity and not to replace it. To achieve this, the theoretical component of physical education provides the student with knowledge of concepts, principles and methods, essential for effectively managing physical activity. The last part of the paper presents the main barriers that make teachers reject this knowledge-based approach.
New Technology in Education on Performance Analysis. Wearable Sensors Utility on Alpine Skiing
Authors: Enoiu Sandu Razvan , Brus Denisa Iulia , Mindrescu Veronica
Published: November 2023

The study explains how employing sensors while alpine skiing may raise an athlete's technical proficiency. The sensors offer a reliable set of data that enables the creation of a picture of the athlete's technical dexterity. Through statistical analysis of this data, it is possible to derive the equation for multiple linear regression, which illustrates the relationship between the athlete's time recording (which is regarded as the dependent variable) and the sensor-monitored parameters (considered independent variables). In the study, two linear regression equations were developed, with the number of independent variables considered determining which one was used. The quantity of athletes being watched and their technical proficiency have an impact on how accurate multiple linear regression is. The educational utility of the study derives from the mathematical model provided. This model will enable the athlete to concentrate primarily on the technical aspects of performance improvement while also understanding how improvement in specific technical elements affects the potential time to be achieved.

Authors: Harabagiu Neculai , Pârvu Carmen
Published: November 2023

The aim of the present research is to increase the serve reception efficiency for the players in the C. S. Arcada Galaţi team, by means of the statistical software program called “Data Volley”. As the coaches of this team, we had the opportunity to use such a tool by means of which we collected the necessary data for the study.
We studied all the 12 teams during 36 official plays selected from the initial part of the Masculine National Volleyball Championships where the analysis focused on the serve reception of 48 players, so that we could get a clear image of the play efficiency of this technical procedure at a national level.
The research methods used in the present article were the study of bibliographical material, the statistical-mathematical method, the video analysis and the graphical representation.
As a result of the statistical analysis and video analysis, we found that the efficiency at a national level is 56%, as compared to the 52 % efficiency in the Arcada Galaţi team. The ample analysis of each player at serve reception evinced the reception deficiencies, where we noticed a 30% efficiency for the perfect reception (#) as compared to 33% at national level, and 22% for a positive reception (+) as compared to 23 % at a national level.
The final results showed that the use of such a software during the entire sports training led to a noticeable increase of the serve reception efficiency, i.e. 32% for the perfect reception (#) and 27% for positive reception (+) at a total efficiency of 59%, which means a 7% increase as compared to the original analysis.

The knowledge-based approach of the PE subject involves the achievement of a mix between a theoretical and a practical component. This approach aims to provide the student with the necessary theoretical notions for an in-depth understanding of the role that practical activity plays in maintaining health. In this way, PE becomes a meaningful school subject for the student. Aim: This paper aims at testing the following hypotheses, built on the conclusions of previous studies: (1) PE teachers consider the theoretical content as less important than the practical one; (2) teachers would rather not deal with the implementation of theoretical content. Method: A data collection tool was devised taking as reference a group of 210 PE teachers, selected by mixed randomization from 7 counties of Romania. The obtained data were then analysed using the statistical programming language R (see 4.1.3). Results and discussions: Teachers value practical content more (4.948) than theoretical content (4.082). And we find this difference even after analysing the data according to the seniority of the teachers within the department. The lowest value is recorded when teachers were asked for their opinion related to the necessity of a PE textbook (3.063). Conclusions and future implications: The two components (theoretical and practical) are not equally appreciated by specialized teachers. This fact highlights the need to emphasise the role of theoretical knowledge within the PE lesson in the training of future teachers.

The article focuses on the assessment of physical and mental self-control style as an attitudinal pattern in relation to the academic performance of first-year students at the National University of Physical Education and Sport included in the target group of the Rose project in 2022. This is an initial empirical study aimed at identifying attitudinal trends in terms of vision on sports performance and performance in didactic learning. The investigated students responded to a psychological questionnaire made up of items assessing: the dominant tendency to place the locus of control in relation to various aspects of life; the dominant tendency to accumulate information (learning style); the way of relating emotionally to different life contexts. The 2020-2022 period left a special mark on all those involved in a didactic learning process, given the context generated by the COVID-19 pandemic, in the sense of increasing the dropout rate of academic education, and a strong mark on athletes’ mobilization for performance and their vision of the future. Theoretically, we consider the concept of locus of control in one’s own life (Rotter, 1966), in the sense of decision-making, action or non-action in predictable and unpredictable situations, but also the level of dependence on social influences. On the other hand, we refer to the visual or auditory perceptual dominance associated with motor learning.

Przemiany przestrzenne a wykorzystanie środków unijnych – na wybranych przykładach Krakowskiego Obszaru Metropolitalnego
Authors: Wójtowicz-Wróbel Agnieszka
Published: November 2023

W artykule przeanalizowano wpływ wykorzystania środków unijnych na
przemiany przestrzenne gmin, których głównym ośrodkiem jest małe miasto lub
miejscowość bez praw miejskich, lecz o miejskim charakterze. Badaniami objęto trzy
gminy (Lanckoronę, Słomniki i Alwernię), które wykazują odmienny charakter
funkcjonalno-przestrzenny. Głównymi ośrodkami gmin są: Lanckorona (miejscowość
o charakterze turystycznym i rekreacyjnym), Słomniki (pełnią funkcję obsługi otaczających
je terenów rolnych) i Alwernia (miasteczko o charakterze przemysłowym).
Przedłożone przez powyższe gminy wnioski o wykorzystanie unijnych subwencji zestawiono
zarówno pod kątem skuteczności (wnioski przyznane–wnioski odrzucone) oraz
pod kątem ich przestrzennego charakteru (inwestycje punktowe, inwestycje liniowe
i inwestycje kompleksowe). W niniejszym artykule przy pomocy przykładów zobrazowano
także przestrzenne oddziaływanie realizowanych inwestycji, a następnie sformułowano
spostrzeżenia dotyczące wykorzystania środków unijnych oraz oddziaływania
realizowanych przy ich pomocy inwestycji zarówno obecnie, jak i w dalszej perspektywie
czasowej.
Potencjał transportowo-osadniczy małych miast województwa łódzkiego
Authors: Wiśniewski Szymon
Published: November 2023

Dostępność transportowa jest jednym z najważniejszych przedmiotów badań geografii transportu. Analizy dostępności pozwalają nie tylko na tworzenie diagnoz dotyczących ruchu ludności i towarów, ale przede wszystkim przyczyniają się do prowadzenia odpowiedniej polityki transportowej, co odzwierciedla niezwykle ważny wymiar aplikacyjny tego rodzaju badań. W przypadku województwa łódzkiego dostępność transportowa nabiera szczególnego znaczenia, zważywszy na jego położenie w aktualnej i kreowanej przez Unię Europejską transeuropejskiej sieci transportowej (TEN-T). W opracowaniu przedstawiono pojęcie dostępności oraz jej ugruntowanie w polityce Unii Europejskiej, a jako metodę analizy zjawiska przyjęto podejście potencjałowe. Określenie atrakcyjności miast oraz ustalenie efektywnych połączeń drogowych i kolejowych pozwoliło na zbadanie potencjału transportowo-osadniczego województwa łódzkiego ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem małych miast.
Wybrane środki realizacji obowiązku pracodawcy przeciwdziałania mobbingowi. Rola komisji antymobbingowej w świetle orzecznictwa sądowego
Authors: Piątkowska Paulina , Zychla Agnieszka
Published: November 2023

Opracowanie skupia się na zagadnieniu postępowania antymobbingowego. Analizie zostały poddane komisje antymobbingowe w świetle orzecznictwa sądowego. Są to organy szczególne ze względu na fakt, iż ich członkowie są wybierani przez pracodawcę, który może okazać się jednocześnie mobberem. Budzi to kontrowersje ze względu na ewentualny brak obiektywizmu. Autorki zauważyły, że sama procedura antymobbingowa nie jest rozpowszechniona wśród pracowników. W tekście zwrócono także uwagę m.in. na dopuszczenie konieczności udostępniania protokołów konkretnych postępowań komisji antymobbingowej, czy jej odpowiedzialności za zadania w sytuacjach, kiedy została ona powołana przez pracodawcę. Po analizie orzecznictwa Autorki dochodzą do konkretnych wniosków oraz podkreślają wagę istnienia komisji antymobbingowej i niektóre aspekty z nią związane – zarówno z samą komisją, jak i jej rolą w wyżej wspomnianej procedurze.
Praca zdalna w dobie pandemii i związane z nią wyzwania dla pracowników
Authors: Bołdyrew Julia
Published: November 2023

W ciągu ostatnich trzech lat, głównie w wyniku pandemii COVID-19, praca zdalna stała się powszechnie stosowanym rozwiązaniem, jednak wdrożenie tej formy pracy w licznych zawodach, wobec wielu pracowników naraz i bez uprzednich przygotowań, spowodowało liczne problemy, takie jak konieczność zapewnienia sprawnego sprzętu i dostępu do internetu, potrzeba reorganizacji czasu pracy i próba przeniesienia do sfery cybernetycznej czynności nigdy wcześniej na tak dużą skalę niewykonywanych online. Stworzyło to przestrzeń do licznych nadużyć i prób wyzyskania braków systemowych m.in. ze strony pracodawców. Sprzyjały temu przepisy Kodeksu pracy regulujące kwestię telepracy, które w wielu przypadkach okazywały się niewystarczające, oraz tzw. tarcza antycovidowa, która pozwoliła pracodawcom na wprowadzanie pracy zdalnej bez zgody pracowników. W konsekwencji opracowano projekt nowelizacji Kodeksu pracy, której zadaniem jest m.in. zdefiniowanie i wprowadzenie do systemu prawnego instytucji pracy zdalnej w sposób zgodny z innymi przepisami prawa pracy. Celem opracowania jest próba wskazania głównych problemów pracowników w sytuacji pracy zdalnej, analiza przepisów regulujących telepracę i pracę zdalną w ustawie antycovidowej oraz ocena ich użyteczności, jak również przedstawienie przepisów regulujących pracę zdalną w nowelizacji Kodeksu pracy i określenie jej roli w poprawianiu sytuacji pracowników po pandemii.
