Zînet Kavramının Analizi
Authors: Şimşek İbrahim
Published: June 2024

Kur’an dil ve edebî kaynak olarak eşsiz bir hazinedir. Onun edebî yönlerinden birisi de Kur’an’daki kavramlardır. Kur’an’ı anlamanın yolu, âyetlerde geçen kelime ve ifadelerin doğru anlaşılmasından geçmektedir. Bu kavramların iyi anlaşılabilmesi de kelimenin kök anlamı ve farklı zamanlarda kazandığı manaların tespit edilmesi önem kazanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada Kur’an’a zenginlik katan önemli kavramlardan “zînet” kavramı ele alınmış ve değerlendirilmiştir. Bu araştırmanın amacı, “zînet” kavramının sözlük anlamlarını, kavramın yüklendiği anlamlar ve âyetlerdeki kullanılan anlamlarını tespit etmektir. Bu çalışmanın kaynaklarına ulaşmak için basılı materyal taramasına başvurulmuştur. Çalışma, Kur’an’da yer alan zînet kavramının incelenmesi olduğu için öncelikle bu kavramın sözlük anlamları tespit edilmiştir. Çalışmanın konusunu temelde “zînet” kelimesinin analizi ve buna yakın anlamda kullanılan kelimeler oluşturmaktadır. Kavram tespiti yapıldıktan sonra Kur’an’daki kullanım biçimlerine yer verilmiştir. Burada çalışmanın kapsamı göz önünde bulundurularak zînetle ilgili Kur’an’da geçen kelimeler bu çalışmaya dâhil edilmiştir. Zînet ile anlam ilişkisi olan her kavrama yer verilmemiştir. Bu nedenle zînet kavramıyla yakın anlamlı olan ve çalışmamızda yer almayan farklı bazı kelimeler olsa da Kur’an’da geçmeyen bu kelimeler araştırmaya dâhil edilmemiştir.

Published: June 2024

The study examines the influence of firms’ characteristics on accrual and real Earnings Management Practices (EMP). Firm characteristics include Asset Structure (AS), Capital Structure (CS), Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR), Firm Profitability (FP), Free Cash Flow (FCF), and Working Capital (WC). EMP was proxied by Discretionary Accrual (DA) and Real Earnings Management (REM). Two hundred and seventy-nine (279) non-financial listed firms with the data required for the study from 2010 to 2020 were selected from six (6) countries in sub-Saharan Africa. The study found that AS has a negative and significant influence on DA in Kenya and Tanzania. DPR positively and significantly influence DA in Zimbabwe and WC on DA in South Africa. Also, CS has a positive and significant impact on DA in Nigeria and DPR and CS on DA in Ghana. Also, AS and CS have a positive and significant impact on REM in Ghana. However, AS, FCF, DPR, FP, and WC have a negative and significant effect on REM in Nigeria. The study concludes that DA and REM significantly influence firm characteristics in sub-Saharan Africa. This study fills exiting gaps on EMP in Sub-Saharan Africa by considering the effect of firms’ characteristics on both DA and REM. The study expands knowledge on the importance of firm characteristics on EMP in sub-Saharan Africa regions where the majority of countries are developing nations and REM has not received adequate attention.

Authors: Hussain Karar , Hussain Nusrum Min Allah , Noor Rubab
Published: June 2024

The purpose of this research is to investigate the relationship between job embeddedness (JE) and turnover intention (TI) in public sector with a focus on mediating effect of life satisfaction (LS) and moderating role of ethical leadership (EL). The study employed quantitative design where 245 employees working in the public sector were surveyed through structured questionnaires. Data was analyzed using Partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) for data analysis and hypothesis testing. According to the findings, JE has a negative impact on TI among public sector employees mediated by LS. Similarly, EL adjusts the connection between JE and TI. These outcomes have implications that require public sector stakeholders to pay attention to both individual as well as contextual factors to manage effectively and retain employees. Public organizations not only need to improve their workers’ level of involvement within these entities or communities but also think about hiring, training, promoting ethical leaders. This research highlights how organizational as well as community embeddedness impacts the LSM and TIPSEs in public sector mediated by EL.

Methodology: This study was comparative analytical study conducted at pediatric department, Talukas hospitals of district Khairpur (Mir’s), Sindh, from January 2020 to February 2022. Midstream urine samples of children (n=596) were collected from Taluka hospitals of District Khairpur (Mir’s) such as Khairpur, Gambat and Taluka Hospital Kotdiji. All samples were inoculated on different laboratory media and incubated for 24-48 hours. The determination of ESBL producing bacteria were tested by E-test. Double disk synergy method and antibiotic susceptibility test of ESBL producing E. coli isolates was performed by agar gel diffusion method. The extracts of Azadirachta indica (Neem) and Ocimum tenuiflorum (Tulsi) leaves were prepared by rotary evaporator and antibacterial effect of extracts was determined by agar well diffusion method. All data were entered in predesigned proforma.  
Results: Out of 596 urine samples, ESBL producing E. coli 456 (76.1%) were isolated from urine samples of children. The mean age was 9.50±5.48 years (ranged between 2 – 17 years). In this study 254 (42.6%) were male while majority 342 (57.4%) were female. The greater resistance among the E.coli isolates was noted in Aztreonam 160 (35.1%) followed by Ampicillin 129 (28.3%), Amoxicillin/clavulanate 108 (23.7%) and others antibiotics. The observation of Azadirachta indica and Ocimum tenuiflorum extracts revealed the greater antibacterial effects on ESBL producing test isolates at the concentration of 01 to 25 µL/100 mL whereas the synergetic effect of both extracts was greatly observed at 14 µL/100 mL concentration by agar well diffusion method.
Conclusions: Urinary tract infection caused by multidrug resistant E. coli and ESBL producing E. coli was greatly prevailing all age groups of both genders particularly in 13-17 years of children. The antibiotic susceptibility test revealed multidrug resistant while Azadirachta indica and Ocimum tenuiflorum extracts revealed the greater antibacterial effects.

Psychological Effects of Blood Donation on Chinese Donors: Pre and Post Survey Analysis and Potential Improvement Strategies
Authors: Qi Zihe
Published: June 2024

As globalisation encourages migration and the blending of diverse cultures, Canadian blood donation faces new opportunities and challenges. According to Statistique Canada, “there were more than 1.7 million Chinese people residing in Canada in 2021… representing 4.7% of the total population” and we can get more detailed content on Statistics Canada, the aticle is "Chinese New Year and quality of life among Chinese in Canada". As the Chinese population, including Chinese international students, permanent residents, and Chinese Canadians, grows in Canada, how to attract this group of donors is crucial to sustaining Canada's blood reservoir. For this reason, a self-report psychological survey was spread near Vancouver, British Columbia, directed toward participants who identified themselves as ethnically Chinese, or Chinese Canadian. To understand the Chinese donor’s psychological shifts and needs experienced by them during the process of donating blood, it was found through this psychological survey that Chinese donors generally feel psychological unease before donating blood, such as unfamiliarity with the blood donation process and worries about potential side effects after donating blood. Similarly, it is recommended to enhance communication efficiency between Chinese donors, who may not speak English fluently, and the staff members by employing more multilingual staff, along with considering the recruitment of a psychological counselling team, to strengthen the current blood donation system. Implementing improvements for raising awareness and publicising blood donation, generating a comforting experience and environment for Chinese donors, and strengthening safety measures and trust in the process are also essential. All the possible suggestions are proposed in the hope of eliminating the psychological anxiety of Chinese donors, which may enhance their willingness and motivation to donate blood and increase the blood supply for Canada’s blood reserve.

Published: June 2024

Food is a primary need of humans and food security is central to the sustainability of livelihoods of people. Over the years the Federal and State Governments in Nigeria have been striving to meet the local food needs of its growing population without appreciable success. There is a growing concern that climate change, manifest through increased rainfall and attendant floods, will further affect the capacity of the nation to meet the food demands of its people. This paper looks at flood disasters and their impact on the various dimensions/ components of food security in Benue State. Data was sourced via the questionnaire (christened the Food Security Indicator) which was administered to 390 respondents who were randomly selected from six communities in three L.G.As, from the Benue Northwest senatorial zone. The data collected from the field was analyzed using the frequencies and percentages. Findings reveal that majority of respondents perceived that flooding affects food availability, access and utilization. The findings however reveal that flooding does not impact on food stability; as this is likely to be a function of other factors. In view of this, it was recommended that Government and Development Partners should make sustainable arrangements to provide a buffer stock of food to cushion the effect of flood hazards on food challenges of households. The government should also devise ways of harvesting flood waters that will help boost dry-season farming thereby increasing food production.

A Causation-driven Approach to Engineering Education Using Data Analytics and Machine Learning Tools
Authors: Galatro Daniela , Hashimoto Kai , Juttada Satya Sathwik
Published: June 2024

This work presents a causation-driven approach to engineering education using data analytics and machine learning tools as an alternative to teaching/learning approaches based on combining the physical description of the phenomenon and using first principle and/or correlations/heuristics. We aim to increase the percentage of student participation during lectures, recognize the importance of using data analytics to understand a phenomenon, introduce students to machine learning tools as complementary analysis methods, and encourage students to perform research and find “different ways” to assess and solve an engineering problem. We illustrated our approach with three examples in two different domains: lectures and supervision, including (i) understanding the physical significance of the Nusselt number using exploratory data analysis, (ii) studying the impact of the reaction temperature on conversion using Bayesian structural time-series model to evaluate the effect of an intervention, and (iii) performing a heterogeneous treatment effect to assess the potential causation of combined demographic and environmental variables on health outcomes using Causal Random Forest. To evaluate the effectiveness of our approach, we quantified the percentage of student participation, which increased by more than 20%, as well as a set of generated lessons learned that attest to deepening the acquired knowledge.

Resulta imperiosa la necesidad de hacer balance de la aplicación judicial, a partir la entrada en vigor de la Ley 8/2021, de 2 de junio, por la que se reforma la legislación civil y procesal para el apoyo a las personas con discapacidad en el ejercicio de su capacidad jurídica, desde una óptica eminentemente práctica en la que se compartan experiencias, pues es un hecho que, en cada fiscalía, juzgado y notaría, se está actuando al respecto de la mejor manera posible, pero también de una forma distinta.
La protección y la reparación de las víctimas de violencia sexual. La garantía integral de la libertad sexual a la luz de la Ley Orgánica 10/2022, de 6 de septiembre
Authors: Freire Pérez Rosa María
Published: June 2024

La violencia sexual es una violación de los derechos humanos que afecta de forma específica y desproporcionada a mujeres y niñas, pero también a los niños. Sobre esta premisa, la Ley Orgánica 10/2022, de 6 de septiembre, de Garantía Integral de la Libertad Sexual, marca como objetivo la garantía y protección integral del derecho a la libertad sexual y la erradicación de todas las violencias sexuales (art.1 LO 10/2022). Protección, prevención y reparación son, por tanto, fines declarados de la ley, que articula una serie de medidas sobre la base del reconocimiento de la posición de las víctimas como titulares de derechos humanos y la posición de garantes de los mismos de las Administraciones públicas, como titulares de obligaciones. Loable y positiva ha de valorarse la ley en este abordaje integral y central de la categorización de la violencia sexual, que dimensiona la magnitud del desafío al que nos enfrentamos, casi podríamos decir como humanidad. Se establece también el derecho de reparación como uno de los ejes de la responsabilidad institucional para lograr la recuperación de las víctimas y la garantía de no repetición. Estos retos quizás conduzcan a revisar los modelos de justicia, y a dar cabida, junto a los sistemas retributivos (comunidad) y rehabilitadores (infractor), al restaurativo (víctima), también en estos delitos. Ello, tomando en consideración cada caso y cada víctima, a pesar de la reforma efectuada por el artículo 3 de la Ley 4/2015, de 27 de abril, del Estatuto de la Víctima del Delito, y de prohibir expresamente la mediación y la conciliación en supuestos de violencia sexual.

Authors:   , Noureddine Darine
Published: June 2024

The purpose of this study was to examine differences between Scouts and non-Scouts on variables that are known as key elements in positive youth development, namely, commitment to school, attitude towards employment, future orientation, self-efficacy and empathy. Participants (N=200), between the ages of 11 and 16, were male students enrolled in private schools in Lebanon that offered an after-school scouting program. The study relied on a self-report method, where participants filled in a questionnaire that consisted of demographic information, in addition to five different scales, each measuring a particular variable. T- test and ANOVA were used for data analysis. Results from the study revealed a significant difference between Scouts and non-Scouts on the attitude towards employment and empathy level, where Scouts' scores where significantly higher on both scales, while no significant differences were found between Scouts and non-Scouts when compared on the remaining three scales, i.e. commitment to school, future orientation and self efficacy. The results of this study highlighted the importance of the Scouting Movement with regard to the development of certain character-traits that are known to be key factors in positive youth development.
Mentoring Practices: The Perspectives of Principals, Mentors and Novice Teachers
Authors:   , Nourian Rita Waroujan
Published: June 2024

The purpose of this research study was to explore the perspectives of principals, mentors and novice teachers at nine private schools in Beirut on how they conceived mentoring, the forms of mentoring support available at their schools, the mentoring practices implemented at their schools and their recommendations on improvement of current practices. A theoretical framework was developed based on well-established mentoring practices evident in the literature. A qualitative research design, with grounded theory as its methodology, was adopted in this study. Data was analyzed using the constant comparative approach. The conceptual categories emerging formed the basis to develop a proposed model of mentoring practices that is grounded in the context of private schools in Beirut. The proposed model was compared to the theoretical framework. In addition to the proposed model, the findings of the study revealed that the schools lacked institutionalized and documented mentoring programs. Novice teachers were under-prepared, lacked adequate pre- and in-service teacher training and received support (if found) by their superiors and peers. The study also revealed that the participants used the terms supervising, coordinating and mentoring interchangeably. They did not realize the difference between mentoring as a function and the formalized supervisory roles held by the school superiors and accordingly regarded their superiors as their mentors. In addition, the mentors (mainly head of departments) followed the directive approach to supervision, which hindered opportunities for novice teachers‘ professional development and encouraged dependency. Finally, principals and mentors (head of departments and head of divisions) seemed to underestimate the collegial support novice teachers received from their peers. Although mentors relied highly on peer mentoring support they did not admit of its importance and of its being one form of mentoring support. Recommendations for practice and research were then suggested.

The aim of this study was to examine the relationships between the predictor variables (demographic variables, gratitude, self-compassion, spirituality, and social connectedness) and the outcome variable (happiness) in a convenient sample of 202 Lebanese adults aged 18 and above. Participants were expected to fill a battery of questionnaires which included demographics questionnaire (gender, age, educational level, monthly income); the Oxford Happiness questionnaire (OHQ), Subjective Happiness scale (SHS), the Gratitude questionnaire-six item form (GQ-6), Self-compassion scale-short form (SCS-SF), Spirituality Scale-Revised version (SS-revised form), and the Social connectedness scale. The main findings of this study revealed that social connectedness was the highest and most significant predictor of happiness followed by spirituality, self-compassion and gratitude. Moreover, there was no significant gender or age differences regarding happiness, no significant association between educational level and happiness and no significant association between income and happiness. The interpretations of the findings and the limitations of the study were discussed.
NADOBÚDANIE VLASTNÍCTVA K POĽNOHOSPODÁRSKEJ PÔDE V ZMYSLE PRÁVNEJ ÚPRAVY FRANCÚZSKEJ REPUBLIKY
Authors: Máčaj Ľudovít
Published: June 2024

Článok sa zameriava na možnosti prevodu vlastníctva k poľnohospodárskej pôde v zmysle právnej úpravy Francúzskej republiky. Približuje postavenie poľnohospodárskej pôdy a jej ochrany ako súčasti životného prostredia, ale aj ako predmetu právnych vzťahov. Existujú osobité dôvody, pre ktoré sa zákonodarca rozhodol priznať poľnohospodárskej pôde toto postavenie. Následne článok uvádza postup, ktorý je potrebné dodržať za účelom prevodu vlastníctva k týmto pozemkom. Poľnohospodárske pozemky nepredstavujú tovar a bežný predmet právnych vzťahov, ale zasluhujú si zvláštnu ochranu, ku ktorej tento postup smeruje. Osobitné postavenie má v tomto prípade orgán SAFER, ktorého aktivita je zameraná na ochranu vidieka a poľnohospodárstva v regiónoch. Jeho činnosť je osobitá aj v rámci celej Európskej únie. Článok nakoniec porovnáva túto právnu úpravu so situáciou v Slovenskej republike a prináša niekoľko úvah.

Dependence of metal shears consumption on technological parameters of the process of shearing flat rolled metal products
Authors: Seleznov Maksym , Borovik Pavlo
Published: June 2024

There is a growing demand for flat-rolled steel products. In today's market we have the task for heavy engineering, which has a target making of equipment for such steel products manufacturing. At the same time, machines and mechanisms that are not directly involved in metal rolling but ensure the performance of other operations are important components of the entire technological process and are aimed at producing metal products with specified characteristics constitute a significant part of the equipment produced for rolling mills of metallurgical enterprises specializing in the flat-rolled steel production. Among them, shears for longitudinal and transverse shearing, which are used to produce flat-rolled metal products of a given shape and size play a major role. Meanwhile, shears with single-slope (guillotine) and double-slope (chevron) knives usually used for metal strips and sheets transverse shearing and being the most complex equipment on rolling mills shearing lines are widely used. Therefore, timely and correct cost determination of such shears is very important in the context of machine-building production, developing technical and commercial proposals. A specialist ought to be able to determine their metal consumption in advance. Therefore, in this paper, a mathematical dependence allowing determining the shears metal consumption, taking into account the maximum shearing force and the maximum allowable width of the metal rolling was obtained based on the analysis of available data on the main characteristics of known shears. Meanwhile, further refinement and adaptation of the obtained dependence may be appropriate to be used in the automation tools development for designing the technology of shearing flat-rolled metal products with a slope knife.
