An Empirical Investigation of the Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Accounting Practice in Nigeria
Authors: A. Ugo Celina
Published: August 2023

This study carried out an empirical investigation on the impact of artificial intelligence on accounting practice in Nigeria. The study adopted a survey research design. Data for the study were extracted from one hundred and forty-eight (148) respondents extracted from selected organizations in Abuja. A questionnaire was used as the primary instrument for data collection. The data were analyzed with the aid of frequency tables and percentages and the hypotheses were tested with probability values extracted from the regression output. The major findings of the study revealed that expert systems and neural networks contribute positively and significantly to accounting practice in Nigeria. The implication of this finding is that any accountant that does not arm their skills with the knowledge of artificial intelligence software, may become irrelevant in the nearest future. It is therefore the recommendation of this study that accountants should attend seminars and workshops on modern accounting methodical practices in order to further their knowledge of and proficiency with artificial intelligence technologies, which will increase their dynamism in functional accounting activities and secondly; to prepare upcoming accountants for what lies ahead in the business world, the government should incorporate artificial intelligence courses into accounting at the undergraduate and graduate levels in tertiary institutions.

Geophysical investigation involving Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) Schlumberger array was carried out across Idi-Ayunre, Ibadan, a typical basement complex area having a rock composition of migmatite-gneiss, quartzite, and biotite-hornblende. A total of forty (40) vertical electrical sounding data were acquired with maximum current electrode separation of 100m using resistivity meter and its accessories. The aim of the study was to evaluate the aquifer vulnerability of the study area to contamination. The VES results were both qualitatively and quantitatively interpreted using partial curve matching and were further subjected to computer iteration using WINRESIST. The longitudinal conductance, thickness of layer overlying aquifer and hydraulic conductivity were generated and synthesized to produce the vulnerability map. A GODT multi-criteria model which is an acronym of Groundwater occurrence, Overburden thickness, Depth and Topography developed from the hydrogeologic parameters were evaluated alongside the longitudinal conductance values to determine the aquifer vulnerability of the area and to classify the study area accordingly. The curve type obtained are H and HA. The interpretation revealed three to four geoelectric layers: the topsoil (18.9-178.9Ωm), clayey (9.0-70.6Ωm), fractured basement (31.9-43.1Ωm) and fresh basement (1131-2916Ωm). The longitudinal unit conductance ranges from 0.032-0.93mhos. And from the GODT model derivations, the study area shows 92.5% of high vulnerability rating, 2.5% of low-moderate and 5% of moderate rating; areas with high rating are prone to contamination than areas with low-moderate and moderate rating. Hence, zones of high vulnerability may be not be encouraged for groundwater exploitation and, if need be, constant water quality assessment should be carried out before consumption.
Enhancing Human Resource Functions through Digital Information Management Systems: The Moderating Role of Organisational Commitment
Authors: S. Lindiwe , N. Njabulo , V. Elton
Published: August 2023

The adoption and implementation of digital information management systems is largely viewed as a means for promoting efficiency in organisations. Conversely, the realisation of the benefits derived from full utilisation of integrated digital information management systems still remain distant, pointing to lack of efficiency for some universities, particularly in the context of Sub-Saharan Africa. This lack of efficiency on the part of some universities suggests the need for accelerated incremental or adaptive digital innovations which are regarded as antecedents for the full utilisation of digital information management systems. Owing to this, the purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of digital information management systems as an antecedent for human resource functions in promoting efficiency. The hypotheses are tested using a sample size of 202 comprising senior managers, heads of sections and human resource personnel. The authors identify enterprise resource planning and human resource information systems as factors that bring efficiency to human resource functions. Organisational efficiency is associated with sound human resource functions driven by full utilisation of digital information management systems. Furthermore, the realisation of efficiency requires commitment of resources by the organisation. The empirical outcomes suggest that the digital information management system in place is predominantly used for recruitment, training and development processes while performance management processes are largely done manually. This paper contributes to the research literature on the significance of digital information management systems utilisation particularly from Sub-Saharan Africa. Also, the study provides a new empirical test using a data set of 202 decision makers such as senior managers and heads of sections.

Woman as a Savior and Nurturer of Nature: An Ecofeminist Analysis of Kamala Markandaya’s Nectar in a Sieve
Authors: Tiwari Shubha , Ahmad Wani Sarwar
Published: August 2023

The degradation of land and ecosystem and its effects on humans is the biggest issue today. These issues have numerous effects on human existence, including decreased access to clean water, loss of biodiversity, food scarcity, and increased vulnerability to natural disasters. In this context, the concept of ecofeminism has gained new significance as it offers a unique perspective on the intersection of environmental issues and gender. Ecofeminism is a philosophical and social movement that recognizes the interconnectedness of the oppression of women and the degradation of the environment. Ecofeminists argue that both the exploitation of nature and the oppression of women stem from similar societal structures and belief systems that prioritize profit, power, and domination over women and the natural world. This paper attempts to study Kamala Markandaya, Nectar in a Sieve from an ecofeminist perspective and how power and dominance are themes that appear throughout this novel and have a direct impact on both the world of women and the world of Nature. The novel delves into topics such as destitution, exploitation, and the devastation of the natural world through the experiences of its female protagonist. Ecofeminism emphasizes the need for a holistic approach to environmental issues that takes into account the interconnectedness of all living beings. It recognizes the importance of preserving traditional knowledge and practices that promote sustainability and respect for nature. Additionally, ecofeminism calls for the inclusion of women in decision-making processes related to environmental issues, as they are often the ones most affected by environmental degradation.

Desert Nostalgia in Edith Wharton’s Wartime Writing
Authors: Holden Stacy E.
Published: August 2023

This article addresses how and why Edith Wharton used desert imagery in In Morocco (1920). It assesses this North African travelogue as well as her unpublished manuscript “Peter Elsom,” war reportage, and “The Seed of the Faith,” a short story set in a fictional Moroccan city. These works reveal that Wharton rarely if ever wrote of the desert as a natural ecological system. For her, the desert conveyed nostalgic longing for a mythic time before the ills of the modern era.

Authors: Polat Ayşan Ilgın , Gül Mücahit
Published: August 2023

Earthquakes are among the most deadly and destructive natural disasters. They have catastrophic consequences for human life. Every year, thousands of people worldwide are affected by earthquakes, struggling with psychological and physical damage. Educational buildings, which are especially used by students, are damaged by structural and non-structural elements during earthquakes, and individuals caught in the earthquake are injured and even lost their lives. Furniture, which is classified as non-structural elements, can reduce non-structural risks caused by earthquakes with measures to be taken. As a result of the study's keyword search, a literature review was conducted by the use of different academic search engines. The fundamental interior spaces of educational buildings were defined with 7 different definitions. Literature sources found as a result of keyword analysis were used to define the furniture in the interior spaces and 7 fundamental pieces of furniture were defined. Accordingly, 6 different earthquake risk mitigation measures for furniture were analyzed and evaluated.

Authors: Basaure Mauro
Published: August 2023

En este artículo reconstruyo la recepción en Chile de algunos textos clave de la primera generación de la tradición de la Escuela de Frankfurt. Considero textos de la década de los 30, 40 y 50 del siglo pasado, en lo que respecta al contexto de la producción, y el Chile de la década del 60 hasta nuestros días, en lo que concierne al contexto de recepción. Cada texto es recepcionado de modo distinto, pero no solo por su contenido sino también por la selección del contexto en que se lee. Siendo así una metodología bottom-up es decir, que considere, en principio, la recepción de cada texto por separado se hace ineludible. Solo una vez hecha esa reconstrucción individual se puede comenzar un trabajo de agregación que nos permita sacar ciertas conclusiones y hablar de la recepción de la Escuela de Frankfurt. De este modo hacia el final del artículo arribamos a ciertas conclusiones provisorias sobre cómo los textos de esta Escuela han jugado un rol en los procesos de reflexión de la sociedad chilena, y su recepción se ha visto influída también por lo que ocurre en ella.

Abstract  
There are so many new snacks in modern times. Advances in food technology especially in packaged foods and fast foods usually depend on a variety of food additives to enhance the flavor and quality of the appearance and become more durable. One uses formaldehyde and the borax seagal preservatives in food. The study aims to identify foods containing formaldehyde and borax, to know foods that are safe to eat and to improve public knowledge about foods containing formaldehyde and borax. The simple random sampling was taken under the assumption that the suspected sample contained borax and formaldehyde, resulting in a sample of 15 different samples from the vendor. Then a sample was given code according to the name of the food. The borax and formaldehyde tests in this study were performed qualitatively on sample janan using borax test and formalin kit tests. Lab tests revealed that all 15 samples tested with borax tested using a borax kit test indicated that all the food samples tested negatively were borax. As for the formaldehyde test it was obtained that 7 of the 15 positive food samples contained formaldehyde. Thus it may be known that some foods contain formaldehyde.

What happens to University of Hertfordshire DClinPsy research? A survey exploring community dissemination & barriers that prevent this
Authors: Williams Emily , Scott Jacqui
Published: August 2023

Historically, the dissemination of research findings across many disciplines has been limited to peer reviewed journals. More recently, dissemination practices are broadening to include sharing with wider audiences, such as the community being researched. At the University of Hertfordshire some doctoral clinical psychology trainees disseminate more widely than others. Research has not yet asked what helps support trainees on the programme to disseminate their work beyond scientific publication, or what barriers disrupt this. This programme-related project utilised a mixed methods survey which aimed to gain an understanding of barriers to community dissemination practices and how these could be overcome. Results indicated that, although participants strongly agreed that findings should be shared with communities researched, barriers to delivering this exist. The identified barriers to community dissemination included time and limited awareness of community dissemination practices. Further support from supervisors and teaching on wider dissemination practices may help trainees to disseminate more widely. This is important as it could move dissemination outside of the academic community where findings could reach those who could benefit most from them.
Beyond collection: A moral imperative to meaningfully utilise patient feedback data in healthcare settings
Authors: Voi Sandro , Nakubulwa Mable , Heath Jennifer
Published: August 2023

NHS organisations recognise the importance of putting service users at the centre of everything they do, but this principle needs to be clear in the values and behaviours of services. A key action related to this is the capacity and capability of services to effectively collect feedback on service users’ experience of care, in addition to outcomes of care. Unfortunately, our clinical experience suggests that there is a lack of consistency and consensus across services on how to best gather, analyse and, therefore, meaningfully use this data that is provided in good faith by service users. This article describes some of the challenges we have noticed when dealing with service user feedback data and offers guidance and suggestions on how services can manage such data effectively and efficiently.

Published: August 2023

Objective: The aim of this pilot study is to teach midwifery students fetal development with the Fetal Development Application created by virtual reality (VR) technology, an innovative application, and to acquire their reflections on their experiences. Methods: A descriptive qualitative research design was used. The VR application was created by visualizing the fetal development, umbilical cord and placenta localization week by week and transferring them to the virtual environment. Forty-two midwifery students who experienced the practice were included in the study. Students who had previously taken fetal development in the normal pregnancy course were shown the application with VR glasses in the laboratory environment. Data were collected through face-to-face interviews with a semi-structured interview form and a Presence Questionnaire developed by the researchers. They evaluated students’ perceptions of the practice’s strengths and weaknesses and whether the game would be useful as a learning too. Results: The thematic analysis resulted in the following components of the practice experience: interaction, motivation, knowledge, and realism. Students reported that it is effective for understanding fetal development and can be used in lessons. These results highlighted students’ acceptance of technology as a teaching and learning resource and showed potential for future developments. Conclusion: In line with these results, it was seen that the effect of the application was permanent. It has been seen that the VR method has a good practice effect in teaching fetal development and midwifery practice. More research is needed to assess whether students’ learning and retention of knowledge are improved using this new technology.

Authors:   Faculty of Nursing, University of Prince Edward Island, Charlottetown, Canada, MacIntyre Janet
Published: August 2023

Background: Newly graduated registered nurses (NGRNs) enter the 21st-century medical-surgical health care environment where they continue to be a marginalized and disenfranchised population struggling with vast, often untold workplace challenges. Objective: This study reveals these challenges before the COVID-19 pandemic and aims to improve the educational curriculum for baccalaureate student nurses at Schools of Nursing provincially, nationally, and internationally. Methods: A qualitative narrative inquiry research design exposed narratives from NGRNs working in 21st-century medical-surgical nursing environments. The research methodology of critical theory with narrative inquiry examined perspectives and experiences of NGRNs. Interviews were conducted with NGRNs working on medical-surgical nursing units. Results: NGRNs strongly recommend increased dedicated time in their nursing curriculum for the fundamental components of communication and leadership training. Recommendations were also made to enhance curriculum in other capacities, from acutely ill patient care and workload management to work-life balance and coping with shift work. Conclusion: The overwhelming number of NGRNs who identified communication and leadership as significant challenges in the medical-surgical nursing environment is substantial and commands attention. Implications for practice include review of education curriculum and committed support for NGRNs.

The Influence of Cultural Background on the Acquisition of Chinese as a Second Language
Authors: Wang Lu
Published: August 2023

In the process of acquiring Chinese as a second language, cultural background is very important. The cultural background factors that affect the acquisition of Chinese as a second language include value orientation, national psychology and cultural distance. Under different cultural backgrounds, there is a big gap between Chinese students and China people in value orientation and national psychology, which hinders them from learning Chinese. However, students in Chinese cultural circle who are close to China culture have obvious advantages in Chinese acquisition compared with students in non-Chinese cultural circle, which is more conducive to second language acquisition. On the basis of previous studies, this paper analyzes the cultural background factors that affect the acquisition of Chinese as a second language, and on this basis, puts forward some suggestions for Chinese teaching, such as finding the commonalities of different cultures, strengthening the understanding of students' background and paying attention to the communicative function of Chinese teaching.

Authors: Miao Wei
Published: August 2023

This article first clarifies the definition of situational teaching method of ancient Chinese poetry in primary school language education. Then, from the perspectives of catering to the cognitive development characteristics of primary school students and meeting the requirements of the new curriculum standard, it elaborates on the implementation basis of situational teaching of ancient Chinese poetry in primary school language education. It specifically analyzes three important significances of situational teaching of ancient Chinese poetry, namely, its benefits in stimulating learning interest, facilitating in-depth understanding of texts, and contributing to the cultivation of emotional education and aesthetic abilities. This article believes that there are three problems in the current practice of situational teaching of ancient Chinese poetry in primary school language education, namely, situational teaching is single and patterned, the superficiality of situational teaching methods, and excessive reliance on technology in context creation. This paper argues that in teaching ancient Chinese poetry, it is necessary to properly use the situational teaching method, which integrates performance, music, daily life, multimedia and other means to create a context.

Authors: Zhu Liang
Published: August 2023

As the enrollment size of higher vocational institutions in China swiftly amplifies, and with a simultaneous rise in the number of new specializations, existing full-time faculty members grapple with meeting the mounting prerequisites of vocational education. Challenges encompass a low teacher-student ratio, inconsistent quality, and varying teaching abilities. Given such conditions, vocational institutions have turned to hiring professional technicians from enterprises, a strategy that mitigates faculty shortage, economizes educational expenses, bolsters students' practical skills, and augments the scholarly ambiance. The Annual Report on Quality of China's Higher Vocational Education indicates a teacher-student ratio in Chinese vocational institutions of merely 1:15.6, with some well-sourced institutions even failing to satisfy the qualified standard of 1:18. Post expansion, a lag in administration has resulted in a persistently high turnover rate among faculty hires, thus engendering new challenges. There has been a noticeable yearly upsurge in turnover rates since 2017 among faculty hires. Additionally, diverse issues in faculty management within vocational institutions profoundly influence teaching quality. This article investigates 285 faculty hires from various vocational colleges in region Z. Utilizing the SPSS statistical analysis tool, it is revealed that the transactional, relational, and developmental dimensions of psychological contracts of External faculty all significantly correlate negatively (P<0.05) with turnover intentions. A multiple linear regression analysis further disclosed the developmental psychological contract as exerting the most substantial impact on faculty hire turnover rates. The paper concludes by offering suggestions to refine human resource management in vocational colleges in region Z.
