Effect of Environmental Knowledge and Awareness on Green Behavior: Testing Behavioral Intentions, Environmental Attitude, and Green Commitment as Mediators
Authors: Santos Lanie , Ramirez Cyren Grace
Published: October 2023

Schools have recognized the significance of incorporating sustainability into their curriculum to make a more visible societal and environmental impact. This causal research study determined the effect of environmental knowledge and awareness (EKA) on the green behavior (GB) of public elementary teachers. A simple random sampling technique is utilized to identify 89 study participants for the survey. For data analysis, regression and process mediation are employed. Results revealed that the more knowledgeable and aware the teachers are about the environment, the more they will participate in the environmentally friendly practices and programs of the schools. The relationship between EKA and GB is significantly and fully mediated by behavioral intentions (BI). Furthermore, this relationship is significant but partially mediated by environmental attitude (EA) and green commitment (GC). Therefore, this study suggests that the Department of Education develops the environmental knowledge and awareness of teachers through the practical application of Education for Sustainable Development with the help of project-based learning competition, environmental education-focused modules, and the creation of school-based programs.

Published: October 2023

Remote monitoring of fall conditions or actions and the daily life of disabled victims is one of the indispensable purposes of contemporary telemedicine. Artificial intelligence and Internet of Things (IoT) techniques that include deep learning and machine learning methods are now implemented in the field of medicine for automating the detection process of diseased and abnormal cases. Many other applications exist that include the real-time detection of fall accidents in older patients. Owing to the articulated nature of human motion, it is unimportant to find human action with a higher level of accuracy for every application. Likewise, finding human activity is required to automate a system to monitor and find suspicious activities while executing surveillance. In this study, a new Computer Vision with Optimal Deep Stacked Autoencoder Fall Activity Recognition (CVDSAE-FAR) for disabled persons is designed. The presented CVDSAE-FAR technique aims to determine the occurrence of fall activity among disabled persons in the IoT environment. In this work, the densely connected networks model can be exploited for feature extraction purposes. Besides, the DSAE model receives the feature vectors and classifies the activities effectually. Lastly, the fruitfly optimization method can be used for the automated parameter tuning of the DSAE method which leads to enhanced recognition performance. The simulation result analysis of the CVDSAE-FAR approach is tested on a benchmark dataset. The extensive experimental results emphasized the supremacy of the CVDSAE-FAR method compared to recent approaches.

Published: October 2023

This research focuses on the issue of whether investment knowledge and minimum investment capital have a significant influence on investment interest in Pontianak City. The main objective is to analyze the impact of investment knowledge and minimum investment capital variables on investment interest in the capital market in Pontianak City. This study uses a quantitative approach with a population of all investors in Pontianak City, totalling 38,014 investors. The research sample consisted of 100 investors who were selected deliberately (Purposive Sampling). The analysis method in this research uses multiple linear regression analysis, classical assumption testing and hypothesis testing. The results of multiple linear regression analysis show that the regression equation is Y = 31.980 + 0.398X1 – 0.033X2. The correlation coefficient shows an R-value of 0.245, which shows the weak relationship between investment knowledge and minimum investment capital on investment interest. The coefficient of determination shows an R2 value of 0.060, which means that 6.0% of investment interest can be explained by investment knowledge and minimum investment capital. In comparison, other variables not examined in this research influence the remaining 94.0% of investment interest. The results of the simultaneous Test (F test) show that investment knowledge and minimum investment capital simultaneously influence investment interest. The Partial Test (t-test) results on investment knowledge show that investment knowledge has a partially significant effect on investment interest. For minimum investment capital, it can be concluded that minimum investment capital does not have a significant effect on investment interest.

Evaluating the activity results of hospitals and determining whether the targeted outputs have been achieved are among the issues that hospital administrators emphasize. It is important that hospitals in the health sector, where the importance of zero error is emphasized, carry out their activities by considering business excellence. Business excellence is possible by being able to see what will happen in the world of tomorrow and taking the necessary precautions. Innovations and developments in the health sector directly affect human life and quality of life. For this reason, organizational innovation is important for hospitals. With this background, the aim of the research is to reveal the relationship between organizational innovation and business excellence in hospitals. The research is a cross-sectional and descriptive study. Data were collected by using face-to-face survey method on 450 healthcare workers working in private hospitals. According to the results of the pearson correlation analysis, it was determined that there is a moderate, positive and significant correlation between organizational innovativeness and business excellence (r=0.674; p

As an educational institution, implementing all activities held by Islamic boarding schools is close to the teachings of the Islamic religion. Students who choose to live in Islamic boarding schools experience what is called academic procrastination behavior. Academic procrastination is a form of procrastination generally carried out in academic areas, such as assignments at school or assignments in study courses so it can be academic procrastination. Students' weak self-control causes academic procrastination. This research aims to determine how students' self-control influences the procrastination behavior of students at Al-Khoiriyah Islamic Middle School. In other words, this research wants to know whether the self-control variable is a variable that plays a positive or negative role in influencing academic procrastination. This type of research is causal-comparative. The population of this study was 122 students. Purposive sampling was used as a sampling technique in this study, with the criteria being junior high school students living in Islamic boarding schools, with a total of 66 students. Meanwhile, the self-control and academic procrastination scales were used as data collection methods to test the hypothesis using a simple regression test. From data processing, significant results were obtained at 0.000<0.05, with a regression coefficient of -0.342 and a value = 0.378. Equal to 37.8%, while other variables influence 61.5%. So, the results of this research show that self-control plays a significant role and negatively influences the academic procrastination behavior of Al-Khoiriyah Islamic Middle School students who live in Islamic boarding schools.

A Critique Of Ibn Al-Jawzi’s Discourse On Some Sufi Themes In His Talibisu Iblis
Authors: Gambari Yusuph Dauda , Fatiu Karatu
Published: October 2023

Sufism is shrouded with many polemics which keep thickened by the day. The gap between the anti and pro-Sufi scholars continues to widen with time. As the former scholars intensified efforts to discredit Sufism, the latter strengthened moves to consolidate it in Islam. One of the scholars both sides relied on in their discussions is Ibn Al-Jawzī. Talbīs Iblīs, which forms the kernel of discussions in this paper, is one of his works on Sufism. It is often said that the work is an attack on Sufism, but the Sufis denied this, stating that it is just an appraisal of different groups that make up Islam. The effort here is to critique various mystical themes in the work vis-à-vis Sufis’ renditions to determine their level of correlation or otherwise. Historical and exegetical methods are adopted. The former availed the opportunity to dig into relevant historical facts, while the latter assisted in analyzing his submissions on Sufism. It is discovered that Ibn Al-Jawzī was not particular about Sufism, but all groups of Muslims identified how Iblīs deluded each. Also, he did not entirely condemn Sufism but considered some doctrines and practices strange therein. His submissions were guided by his little practice of Sufism and observations of Sufis of his time. The paper concluded that Ibn Al-Jawzī's effort is not different from Ahmad Ibn Hanbalī's among his precursors and Ibn Taymiyyah among his successors.

Menopause Hormone Therapy: 2023 Update
Authors: Black Denise
Published: October 2023

The publication of the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) study in 2002 caused a precipitous decline in use of menopause hormone therapy (MHT). Prior to publication, approximately 43% of women aged 45–74 used MHT; following publication, this number dropped to 11%. Fear of breast cancer was the largest motivator behind this decline. Since the WHI study, menopause medical education has been inadequate; it is estimated that 41% of medical schools do not include menopause education in their undergraduate curriculum. The same study highlighted significant knowledge gaps regarding menopause management among practicing physicians.

Menopausal women are asking questions and expecting answers. Advocacy groups such as the Menopause Foundation of Canada are empowering women to acknowledge the impact of menopausal symptoms on the workplace, personal relationships and personal health. As MHT is considered first-line therapy (in the absence of contraindications), it behooves healthcare providers to have a working knowledge of MHT.
Redefining Diabetes Strategies in Primary Care: Four New Pillars of Management
Authors: Jain Akshay
Published: October 2023

The management of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is possibly becoming one of the most challenging aspects of primary care. With millions of individuals worldwide living with T2DM, who are at a higher risk of developing multiple additional chronic conditions including cardiovascular disease (CVD) and renal disease, it is imperative that primary care practitioners (PCPs) around the world are comfortable with the management of T2DM. However, with dozens of T2DM medications available, many of which have associated risks of side effects such as hypoglycemia, the management of T2DM can be quite time-consuming for the busy family physician.

In light of the above, it is important that we look at T2DM through a new lens. It is imperative that clinicians view the management of T2DM not just as “blood glucose management” but rather, that they adopt a person-centric, holistic management approach that takes into account the mitigation of microvascular and macrovascular complications, in order to reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with the condition. When it comes to the management of this condition, one needs to be less of a “glucologist” and more of a “diabetologist”. In order to develop this approach, with the busy PCP in mind, I suggest four pillars on which to focus during a T2DM appointment, that are beyond the laboratory HbA1c measurement.

O que você faria se chegasse algum dia em casa e não encontrasse nada? Nem sua família, nem os móveis, sem nenhum contexto nem explicações, só as paredes, as janelas e o silêncio? Esse é o cenário a partir do qual a trama da narradora-personagem se desenvolve, em sua busca por um novo lar, novas companhias e uma nova identidade. Ao tentar entender e superar o ocorrido, a narrativa se vê permeada por profundas reflexões e descrições de sentimentos da jovem estudante, cuja saúde mental deteriora-se com o passar dos capítulos, por conta do trauma que a assombra. Esta é uma história sobre a vida e os sofrimentos que dela decorrem, sobre dor e perda, mas também sobre amor e saudade; é uma história sobre depressão e crises existenciais, mas que nem por isso deixa de enxergar o outro lado belo das coisas. Mais que tocar alguém com suas palavras, a autora ambiciona encontrar almas que conversem com ela e que, nesse movimento, não se sintam jamais abandonadas.
Continuity of attractors for C^1 perturbations of a smooth domain
Authors: Barbosa Pricila S. , Pereira Antonio L.
Published: October 2023

We consider a family of semilinear parabolic problems with nonlinear boundary conditions $$\displaylines{ u_t(x,t)=\Delta u(x,t) -au(x,t) + f(u(x,t)),\quad x \in \Omega_\epsilon,\; t>0\,,\cr \frac{\partial u}{\partial N}(x,t)=g(u(x,t)), \quad x \in \partial\Omega_\epsilon,\; t>0\,, }$$ where \(\Omega_0 \subset \mathbb{R}^n\) is a smooth (at least \(\mathcal{C}^2\)) domain, \(\Omega_{\epsilon} = h_{\epsilon}(\Omega_0)\) and \(h_{\epsilon}\) is a family of diffeomorphisms converging to the identity in the \(\mathcal{C}^1\)-norm. Assuming suitable regularity and dissipative conditions for the nonlinearites, we show that the problem is well posed for \(\epsilon>0\) sufficiently small in a suitable scale of fractional spaces, the associated semigroup has a global attractor \(\mathcal{A}_{\epsilon}\) and the family \(\{\mathcal{A}_{\epsilon}\}\) is continuous at \(\epsilon = 0\).
