Organisational Citizenship Behaviours and job burnout among employees of nonprofit organisations
Authors: Bortnowska Hanna , Seiler Bartosz
Published: March 2024

Organisational citizenship behaviours (OCBs) are behaviours that go beyond the formal role and are organizationally functional. They may be linked, among others, to job burnout. This relationship has been studied in for-profit and public organisations. No such studies have been found for nonprofit entities operating in different areas. The aim of the article is to verify whether there is a relationship between job burnout and organisational citizenship behaviours among employees of nonprofits. To this end, survey research was conducted in 2022. A statistical analysis of the obtained data was performed using the Statistica software. It was found that the relationship under analysis does not occur in NPOs.
Exploring the Role of Multimodal Metaphor through Gestures in Middle School English Education
Authors: Deng Xuanhui , Wu Xinxin
Published: March 2024

Introduction: As scholarly interest in metaphorical gestures has burgeoned in recent years, the exploration of these non-verbal communicative cues has primarily centered on domains, such as speeches, advertisements, and movies. Surprisingly, there exists a notable dearth of research specifically delving into the nuanced role of metaphorical gestures within the realm of English teaching, especially in middle school settings. This study sought to address this gap by strategically selecting two nationally recognized English courses taught in middle school English classrooms. The study aimed to explore the role of multimodal metaphor in gestures and provide some inspiration for middle school English teachers.
Methodology: In this research, two videos from National Excellent Courses were selected for analysis using a multimodal annotation tool, namely EUDICO Linguistic Annotator (ELAN). The course selected was the middle school English teaching design course, and the students involved were from Beijing Normal University, China. All gestures analyzed were classified into three types of metaphors, namely ontological, structural, and orientational.
Results: The findings indicated that ontological metaphors occurred most frequently, followed by orientational metaphors, with structural metaphors being the least frequent This research demonstrated the cognitive process of conceptual metaphor in classroom gestures with concrete examples.
Conclusion: In contemporary middle school English classrooms, relying solely on textual material is insufficient for fully supporting the teaching process. This study substantiates that employing multimodal metaphors in gestures can enhance teachers’ ability to motivate students effectively and facilitate improved interaction and semantic communication. The study provides English teachers with valuable guidance on implementing multimodal teaching strategies utilizing metaphorical gestures.

Effect of the national business system on the disclosure of greenhouse gases emissions: multi-country evidence
Authors: Pinheiro Alan Bandeira , Sampaio Thicia Stela Lima , Mazzo Gabriel Gusso , Carraro Wendy Beatriz Witt Haddad , Ribeiro Cintia de Melo de Albuquerque
Published: March 2024

Methodology: Institutional Theory and the National Business System approach were used to propose the research hypotheses. The work evaluated 1,072 companies from the 10 largest economies in the world, using econometric models and statistical analysis.Purpose: Investigate the effect of the national business system on the disclosure of greenhouse gases by companies from the largest economies in the world.Findings: The results indicate that institutional factors, such as the political, financial and cultural systems affect the disclosure of greenhouse gases. Thus, institutional pressure from countries can determine the environmental performance of their firms. However, the results showed that the country’s level of development is not an explanatory variable for the disclosure of atmospheric emissions.Practical implications: The research presents the impact of formal and informal institutions on the disclosure practices of companies, suggesting that policy makers could influence it by strengthening certain institutional aspects. Originality/Value: Although there is an increasing volume of research on the disclosure of corporate social responsibility, few studies are dedicated to comparing the disclosure of greenhouse gases in the light of the national business system.

Social Evolution, Marginalization and Vulnerability of the Hijra Community in Bangladesh: A Historical Analysis
Authors: Shah Md Faruk , Choudhury Nayeema Nusrat
Published: March 2024

Hijra people live all over the world. They have a prehistoric connection to the first historical setting in which men and women were created. This article aims to provide facts about the nomenclature, identity, categorization, social status in different civilizations and religions, and the social evolution and marginalization of the hijra community. Based on secondary sources of data, this has been analyzed adopting a historical method. Social scientists claim that the hijra community is a district group that is neither man nor woman. The hijra group is recognized as a transgender or third gender since they do not undergo the typical maturity of their genitalia after birth due to an abrupt or aberrant physiological alteration in the chromosomes during fertilization and division. Hijra people have been documented in several ancient civilizations, including Mesopotamian, Babylonian, Sumerian, Egyptian, and Mediterranean societies throughout human history. Moreover, the concept of third gender has been explicitly and implicitly emphasized in Hinduism, Christianity and Islam. Over time, the social history and customs of the hijra people on the Indian subcontinent have evolved and changed due to the influence of Mughal rule, British colonization, the Pakistan period, and post-independence Bangladesh. Specifically, there have been several historical shifts in the metrics of domicile, profession, education, status and authority of the community. In addition to improving the lives of these marginalized and neglected people, this article may make a significant contribution to gender studies, sociology and anthropology by helping to comprehend the historical background of the community.

 Chimborazo ya que es la institución encargada de la planificación,

regulación y control del transporte dentro del ámbito de sus competencias. Se procura salvaguardar el bienestar de los actores que intervienen en esta actividad mediante un manejo adecuado de la seguridad vial en el territorio. Utilizando la norma ISO 39001 que constituye una herramienta guiada que permite a las organizaciones reducir y eliminar en lo posible los riesgos concernientes a los siniestros de tránsito. Se han utilizado entrevistas y fichas de observación para realizar el diagnóstico de la organización, identificando las principales falencias y oportunidades de mejora. Se encontró que la organización actualiza la caracterización de servicios que ofrece de manera permanente y en la mayor parte de parámetros se cumplen con las normativas y reglamentos; sin embargo, existen grandes falencias en temas de seguridad vial, por ejemplo no se han efectuado capacitaciones o evaluaciones del desempeño del personal, y el hecho de no contar con vehículos de planta hace que existan factores externos que no se pueden controlar adecuadamente. Posteriormente se diseñaron estrategias para aplicar los lineamientos de la norma ISO 39001 en los diferentes niveles, diseñando instrumentos de recolección de datos de siniestros, así como herramientas para la auditoría interna y la permanencia de los estándares de la norma en la organización.
Fler vägar till G: Hybridexamination med salsskrivning och duggor
Authors: Svanberg Mikael
Published: March 2024

Inslag av elektroniska spelelement inom högre utbildning har under 2000-talet vuxit fram som en effekt av målsättningen att med bibehållen genomströmning möta behovet av flexibelt upplagda utbildningar bland en stor och växande grupp studenter, som dels påbörjar universitetsutbildning med en varierande grad av studievana och studiemotivation, dels alla vuxit upp under den digitala tidsåldern. Syftet med spelifieringen, som termen lyder, är att med spelliknande inslag under utbildningen hjälpa studenten att internalisera yttre motivatorer för att fullfölja studierna. Litteraturen på området vittnar dock om åtskilliga lösningar som haft en oklar eller utebliven effekt på studieresultaten. I artikeln redovisas de bedömda effekterna av ett spelinslag, använt under sammanlagt åtta år inom ramen för författarens egen undervisning i historia på grundnivå. Genom att kombinera en traditionell salsskrivning med möjligheten att innan skrivningen erhålla ett begränsat antal poäng från några frivilliga övningar, kallade duggor, har utvecklats en examinationsform kallad hybridexamination. Poängen från duggorna, som ansluter till kursinnehållet med en växande grad av komplexitet, adderas till poängsumman från salsskrivningen. En undersökning av resultatet från fyra av de tentamenstillfällen inför vilka duggor kunde lämnas in, indikerar att studenter som lämnade in många eller alla duggor, vid tre av tillfällena presterade väsentligt bättre på salsskrivningen än studenter som lämnade in få eller inga duggor, bonuspoängen från duggorna oräknad. Resultatet tolkas som att arbetet med duggorna indirekt ökar förtrogenheten med kursinnehållet i sin helhet. Även om resultatets signifikans inte har fastställts, uppmuntrar det till fortsatt utveckling av konceptet hybridexamination i nya utbildningsmiljöer.

Based on these studies the research in this article probes the famale?s view. Given how: the current reality in the field that demonstrates women?s lives in urban areas with her few public duties, wether their involvement in the public domain coincided with her understanding of gender. Based on the pheemona in this thesis has at least two questions, namely how the view of urban Muslims about the gender relations of husband and wife and what is behind the emergence of the view of urban Muslimah. The results of the study are: First, the background of the emergence of the thoughts and views of Jemaahn Yayasan Rumpun Nurani Foundation on the gender relations of husband and wife is at least influenced by three factors, namely religious understanding, science and knowledge, and social and cultural factors formed from personal experience. Second, Jamaah Pengajian Yayasan Rumpun Nurani considers that husband and wife relationships in the family do not have a fundamental difference between husband and wife. In terms of domestic labor division and decision-making is done flexibly, but for the fulfillment of family needs, it is entirely the husband's responsibility. Based on this view, urban Muslims can be said to be gender conscious Muslims

Morphological Analysis Of Hybrid Compounds In Urdu Afsanas (Short Stories)
Authors: Ali Dr. Kamran , Farrukh Noor-Ul-Ann , Rashid Naila , Nawaz Hafiz Imran
Published: March 2024

One of the significant morphological processes in a language is the way separate lexemes combine to form compound words. This process gives birth to Hybrid compound. Hybrid compounds are the compounds which are formed by the combination of one word from the source and one from the target language. As Pakistan and India have been British colonies and English still holds elite status in these regions, Urdu and Hindi have a large number of lexis which borrowed from English.  The paper aims at analyzing the existence and nature of hybrid compounds in Urdu Language resulting from borrowing English words. A qualitative study was carried out by researchers and the selected corpus from Urdu short stories of Saadat Hussain Manto, Intazar Hussain, Shafeeq-ur-Rahman, Patras Bukhari, and Nimrah Ahmed was used to explore hybrid compounds in Urdu Literature. Fifty compound words were identified out of which 20 Hybrid compounds were observed. Partial borrowing was observed in short stories which provides evidence of hybrid compounding. Endocentric attributive, coordinative and subordinative and Exocentric attributive and subordinative compounds were observed and analyzed. Semantic transparency has been detected in all endocentric compounds where semantic opacity appears in exocentric compounds with some cultural schema at work.
Conceptual Understanding Of BSED Science Major Students Using The Molecular Models In Inorganic Chemistry
Authors:   Leyte Normal University, Tacloban City, Philippines, D. Naboya Ma. Victoria
Published: March 2024

Science is dynamic in nature and with the emerging trends in the world of teaching, the methodology of the teaching process must be innovative to adapt to the current trends in education. Chemistry is often regarded as a challenging subject, an observation that sometimes discourages learners from continuing with their studies. Students prefer learning in a classroom where active participation is greatly encouraged, and it is desirable that Science teachers introduce strategies that will enable students to think of solutions that address scientific knowledge construction. With these, the researcher was interested in finding alternative ways to help the BSED Science major students improve their conceptual understanding. The highlight of the study was the use of manipulative instructional materials that will make learning and understanding molecular geometry more concrete and enjoyable, anchored on the constructivism theory, which views learning as an active process that results from self-constructed meanings. The study utilized the quasi-experimental design, particularly the non-equivalent control group design. Based on the results, there is no noteworthy difference between the conceptual understanding of learning molecular geometry using molecular models and the lecture method, and both are effective teaching strategies for improving the conceptual understanding of the BSED Science major students.
The Correlation Between Language Anxiety And Foreign Language Achievement Among Undergraduate Students At The University Of Tabuk
Authors:   University of Tabuk – Haql College – Languages and Translation Department, Saudi Arabia, Falah Altamimi Dheifallah Hussein
Published: March 2024

English language learning attracts individuals from diverse linguistic backgrounds due to a global demand and is seen as a gateway to academic and professional success. Language anxiety is seen as a reoccurring issue among these learners of foreign languages. This research paper examines the relationship between language anxiety and foreign language achievement of learners by conducting a quantitative study with a sample of 80 undergraduate students at the University of Tabuk-Haql College using a scale (FLCAS) to measure the levels of anxieties induced in the process of foreign language learning. A survey questionnaire was developed using Achievement Emotions Questionnaire (AEQ). The results of the research revealed a negative correlation between the two variables, stressing that language anxiety is a hindering factor in language achievement. There was no statistical difference found in FLA and its effect on language achievement based on gender among the students. The findings of the present research emphasize the significance of equipping educators with the tools to assess language anxiety among learners effectively. Foreign language anxiety can be reduced in learners by creating a supportive classroom environment, fostering encouragement, and developing interventions for situation specific anxiety such as fear of making mistakes and classroom participation can lead to more successful and confident language learners.

Published: March 2024

Compressed bentonite is an appropriate cushion material for getting rid of spent nuclear waste below the surface storage. The contact of compressed bentonite with water, its immersion in water and subsequently its swelling into the neighboring gaps are the principal processes for the development of colloid fines. In this study, to examine the impact of ionic strength on the erosion of compacted bentonite, only the ionic power values of the water contacting the bentonite were changed by keeping the flow rates constant. Sodium chloride was used to change the ionic power of the water contacting the bentonite throughout the experiment. Turbidity meter (TM) was used to determine the amount of eroded particles. The dissolution of bentonite fragments is critical not only due to their physical stability but also due to the radioactive isotopes they contain. An experimentation methodology is introduced. The implemented flow rates were 0.06 ml/min and 0.22 ml/min, and the selected waters were distilled water and 0.05 M NaCl ionic strength water. The dry densities of the compressed bentonite samples used were 1.67 g/cm3, 1.72 g/cm3, 1.72 g/cm3 and 1.72 g/cm3. With distilled water, the total erosion value measured at the end of the 24th day using a flow rate of 0.06 ml/min was 1002.7 mg, whereas the final erosion value measured at the end of the 24th day using water containing 0.05 M NaCl salt was 31.13 mg. In the case of distilled water, the total erosion value measured at the end of the 24th day using a flow rate of 0.22 ml/min was 1774.85 mg, while the total erosion value measured at the end of the 24th day using water containing 0.05 M NaCl salt was 73.6 mg. This demonstrates that the influence of the ionic strongness of the water on erosion is too important to be neglected.

Multidirectional and stable changes in phase shifts and cross-correlation coefficients of the cortical and subcortical stress rhythms occur under conditions of repeated irregular photostimulation, especially in the initial periods. Thus, cross-correlation functional connections, characterized by changes in the spatio-temporal relationships of the brain structures (posterior nuclei of the hypothalamus, reticular formation, and visual projection zones of the cerebral cortex), can be one of the indicators of the formation of stress. By using the parameters mentioned above, we can solve many issues related to the central mechanisms of stress. Our results show that functional connections between the cortical projection area and subcortical structures decrease under stress conditions, while connections between subcortical structures increase. We furthermore found that these EEG changes correlated with autonomic reactions in animals. Thus, these changes may lie based on central mechanisms of stress, and the results of changes in the EEG activity of the cerebral cortex and the cross-correlation parameters in the posterior nuclei of the hypothalamus and the reticular formation may allow preventive measures to be taken to affect these structures to reduce emotional stress.

Authors: Baghirova R.M.
Published: March 2024

In the present work, the functional state and process of adaptation of the cardiorespiratory system to physical activity were studied in student-athletes using the PWC170 bicycle ergometer test. The conducted studies showed that the majority of athletes in both martial arts (cyclic) and team sports (acyclic) had an average level of physical performance. It should be noted that a fairly high percentage of student-athletes at the Azerbaijan State Academy of Physical Education and Sports (ASAPES) had an average level of performance. However, a very small number of students had below-average and high PWC170 scores. The results of the study made it possible to assess the anaerobic performance and adaptive capabilities of athletes as average. The ability of the circulatory system to recover was below average.
Second Language Learners’ Awareness of Adjectivalisation: The Challenge of Differentiating between Verbal Participles and Adjectival Participles by Libyan EFL Students
Authors: Abugharsa Aisha , Attraiki Malak
Published: March 2024

This study explores Libyan EFL learners’ awareness of the process of adjectivalisation, and more specifically the process of using the participle form and progressive form of verbs as adjectives used in English Language. In addition, this study aims to test Libyan students’ recognition of adjectival participles and whether they will be able to distinguish them from verbal participles, prove them as real adjectives with their progressive – ing, and participle – ed, – en forms, and find out appropriate Arabic equivalents of these adjectives easily. The data gathered for this study were based on students’ marks they got by answering a two-part test consisting of an introductory part which is a multiple-choice test, followed by the main part which is the translation test. In the first part, the participants who were 30 students enrolled in Translation III course, were asked to choose the correct adjectivalised participle, and in the second part, the participants were asked to translate some participles used as adjectives into Arabic language. The study was mainly based on quantitatively as well as qualitatively analysing students’ answers to the test questions. The findings of this research revealed that only 16.67 % of the participating students successfully recognized verbal participles used as adjectives. On the other hand, 33.33 % of the students have appropriately rendered the involved de-participle adjectives into Arabic. In addition to the previous results, 20 % of the respondents properly recognized the present participle adjectives, whereas 50% of them truly recognized past adjectival participles in English.

Introduction: This research provides an in-depth comparative analysis of parenting styles and their associated communication patterns in Malaysia, Taiwan, and the Chinese mainland. It also explores how they affect children's well-being through social and emotional development. The study examined the evolving parenting styles in four areas: language and verbal communication, non-verbal communication, gender roles and gendered communities, and family communication.

Methods: A comprehensive literature search focused on journal articles published between 2018 and 2023. The scientific databases employed for this search encompassed reputable platforms such as Web of Science (WOS), Scopus, PubMed, and Google Scholar.

Results: In the language and verbal communication domain, this research offers insights into how parents utilize language as a tool for discipline and emotional expression, indicating a gradual transition in communication styles from authoritarian to democratic. Non-verbal communication sheds light on the nuanced yet impactful ways emotions and norms are conveyed, encompassing eye contact and body gestures. Gender roles and gendered communities unveil a shift in perspectives from traditional to more egalitarian. As these countries or regions progress socially and economically, a transformation in the perception and implementation of gender roles is observed, influencing parenting strategies and children's self-concept. This paper amalgamates these aspects within the realm of family communication to underscore the growing influence of mutual communication and open dialogue in enriching parent-child relationships.

Conclusion: The paper concludes that parenting styles are evolving with changing social norms, indicating the adaptability and responsiveness of parents to dynamic social dynamics, ultimately proving advantageous to children's development.
