Authors: Rosyadan Mohammad Da’i , Sukaris Sukaris
Published: December 2024

The ability to differentiate products is becoming an increasingly important factor in attracting consumers. In order to remain competitive, conventional marketing strategies must be enhanced, and the potential of digitalisation in the marketing sector should not be overlooked. In the context of relentless competition, it is imperative for companies to pursue continuous improvement without becoming overly complacent about achieving their goals. The role of product brand image, product quality and pricing has an impact on the growth of PT Surya Mentari Saktindo Gresik fertilizer company, especially in light of the continued promotion of the optimization of marketing through social media as a means of achieving marketing goals. The quantitative research method was selected for this study to enable the effect of the independent variable on the dependent variable to be accurately described. The results demonstrate that variable X2 has no positive effect on variable Y, whereas variables X1 and X2 have a significant effect. It can be concluded that the consumer's decision to purchase fertiliser products is based on the impact of brand image and product reliability.

This study specifically examines the influence of five main internal factors, namely innovation, diversification, error, information, and entrepreneurship, on the performance of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Pamekasan Regency. This study uses an explanatory quantitative approach with the aim of deeply understanding the influence of each internal factor on MSME performance. The research sample involved 400 MSME actors who were randomly selected from various business sectors in Pamekasan Regency, including trade, services, manufacturing, and other sectors. Data were collected through a questionnaire designed to measure the dimensions of the five independent variables and the MSME performance variable as the dependent variable. Data analysis was carried out using SPSS software to ensure the accuracy and validity of the results obtained. The results of the multiple linear regression analysis showed that each independent variable had a significant influence on MSME performance. Innovation contributes greatly to increasing the competitive advantage of MSMEs through the creation of new, relevant products and services that are in accordance with the needs of the ever-growing market. Diversification was also found to have a significant influence, where MSMEs that have a variety of products or services tend to be more resistant to economic risk and are able to maintain business stability in fluctuating market conditions. Flexibility, as the ability of MSMEs to adapt to changes in the business environment, shows a positive influence on MSME performance, especially in dealing with rapid changes in consumer preferences. Meanwhile, information plays an important role in supporting strategic decision-making, by enabling MSMEs to have access to accurate market data and trends. Finally, entrepreneurship has a significant impact on MSME performance, because the proactive, creative, and innovative attitudes of business actors are able to open up new opportunities and strengthen the position of MSMEs in the market

Published: December 2024

Increasingly, with growing interest in the digital space and a rising focus on environmental sustainability, there is a high potential for digital tools to enhance knowledge about plant-based nutrition. The paper discusses how digital platforms, mobile apps, and online resources can make the message of plant-based diets a core component of environmental education. Such digital tools-interactive features, data-driven insight, and multimedia resources-support better knowledge and behavioral change toward more sustainable food choices. It explores how an ecological footprint calculator, interactive quiz tools, and virtual simulation make learning about plant-based diets a creative and engaging process that could build eco-conscious habits among the learners. It identifies challenges in the light of data accuracy, issues regarding access, and the complexities of bringing long-lasting behavioral change in a solution-oriented way. This provides best practices for integrating digital tools in educational settings, actionable recommendations for educators, health professionals, and policy-makers. It means that by embedding these resources within the curricula, public health, and policy frameworks, the digital resources will assist in bringing up a generation of informed and eco-conscious people who will be committed to sustainable dietary habits. This shift not only promotes personal health but also contributes a great deal to the global environmental goals, making digital tools a very important component in the journey toward sustainability.

INFLUENCE OF AMBIENT CONDITIONS ON THE PARASITIZATION OF Anagasta kuehniella EGGS BY Trichogramma pretiosum
Authors: Vigna Fernando Bellesini , Litholdo Murilo Gaspar , Karlinke Elaine dos Santos Guidetti , Silva Kênia Rezende , Pinto Alexandre de Sene
Published: December 2024

This study investigated the parasitism rate of Trichogramma pretiosum (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) on Anagasta kuehniella eggs (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) in various crops, including maize, crotalaria, and sorghum, while considering diverse weather conditions. Conducted over multiple time points from 2016 to 2018, bioassays were designed with meticulous detail. In each assay, 100 blue cardboard strips (measuring 10 x 0.6 cm, with each strip containing 50 A. kuehniella eggs at the edge) were strategically placed on 20 randomly selected plants within a 5-meter radius from the central point of the field. Egg strips installed at 6:00 am and continued throughout the day, with replacements every two hours until 6:00 pm. Fresh strips were then placed overnight, starting from 6:00 pm until the subsequent morning at 6:00 am. The release of T. pretiosum took place at 6:00 am in the central region of the experimental area.  It was observed that the parasitism rate exhibited its highest values when the relative humidity exceeded 40%. Parasitism peak typically occurred between 12:00 pm and 2:00 pm. Interestingly, parasitism rates were notably lower immediately after the release of parasitoids and during night-time hours. This suggests that T. pretiosum requires a certain time for dispersion and initiation of parasitism, with substantial activity decline during nocturnal periods.
Harnessing the Power of Ellagic Acid: A Natural Shield Against Salt Stress in Wheat and Chickpea
Authors: Elbasan Fevzi
Published: December 2024

The research investigates how ellagic acid (EA) influences the reduction of salinity stress in wheat and chickpea plants. Salinity is a major challenge for global agriculture as it interferes with vital plant physiological functions, especially photosynthesis, by causing ion imbalances and oxidative damage. This study examines EA, a phenolic compound known for its antioxidant capabilities, and its ability to counteract the detrimental impacts of salt stress. In this experiment, wheat and chickpea plants were grown under controlled conditions and exposed to salinity (100 mM NaCl), both with and without the application of EA (12.5 µM). Various parameters, such as fresh and dry biomass, proline concentration, and gas exchange rates, were recorded. The findings revealed that salt stress drastically lowered both biomass and gas exchange performance in the plants, but the application of EA partially alleviated these negative effects. EA enhanced both fresh and dry weights, minimized electrolyte leakage, and elevated proline levels, particularly in chickpea plants. Additionally, gas exchange parameters, including carbon assimilation (A), stomatal conductance (gs), and transpiration rate (E), improved with the combined EA and salt treatment compared to salt stress alone. The study concludes that EA serves as a protective agent against oxidative damage caused by salinity, enhancing growth parameters and boosting photosynthetic performance. This suggests that EA could be a valuable approach to increasing plant tolerance to salinity in agricultural systems..

Published: December 2024

Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.), one of the 30 Cucumis species found worldwide, is the most economically significant. Specified that Pseudoperonospora cubensis causes downy mildew, one of the most destructive foliar diseases affecting cucumbers and other cucurbits. Using a combination of the QuEChERS technique and HPLC, the residue levels and rate of degradation of the commercial fungicide, contained two active components (metalaxyl-M and chlorothalonil), in the cucumber were determined. Additionally, the fungicide's effectiveness was assessed. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse with a randomized block pattern in the eastern Iraqi city of Ramadi, Anbar Governorate. Cucumbers grown in greenhouses were found to have high amounts of metalaxyl-M and chlorothalonil residues. The fungicide required about 14 days to completely dissipate from the cucumber fruits. The recoveries of chlorothalonil and metalaxyl-M were 90.3 and 86.7%, respectively. The half-lives of metalaxyl-M and chlorothalonil were determined as 0.90 and 0.85, respectively.

Authors:   University of Economics, Katowice, Król Małgorzata , Karczewska Monika ,   University of Economics, Katowice
Published: December 2024

Purpose: The purpose of the study is to identify instruments for shaping positive employee
experience in hybrid and remote working environments. The following research questions were
formulated: Can the experience modules – sensory, emotional, intellectual, behavioural and
relational – be used to explore the possibility of shaping the positive employee experience of
hybrid and remote employees? Using the experience modules, can the supervisor shape the
positive experience of hybrid and remote employees?, Are there differences between the
possibility of shaping the positive experience of hybrid and remote employees?
Design/methodology/approach: A critical analysis of the literature, a diagnostic survey
method and a statistical method were used to answer the researcher's questions. The subject of
the study is instruments for shaping a positive employee experience in hybrid and remote
working environments.
Findings: The results of the study confirmed that the sensory, emotional, intellectual,
behavioural and relational experience modules can be used as instruments to shape positive
hybrid and remote employee experience. They also showed differences in the assessment of the
applicability of the different instruments to hybrid and remote employees.
Research limitations/implications: A limitation of the study is the non-random sampling and
the small number of respondents. However, despite these limitations, the study may inspire
further in-depth research into the (digital) employee experience issue.
Practical implications: On the basis of the study conducted, recommendations of a practical
nature can be made regarding the possibilities of shaping a positive employee experience for
hybrid and remote employees. The proposed catalogue of instruments may be useful to those
in managerial roles who recognise the need to shape the employee experience of hybrid and
remote employees. Managers should be aware of the importance of positive employee
experiences for human resource management practice, especially for attracting valuable
employees, retaining and developing them, motivating them to work and increasing their
commitment.
Originality/value: The issue of employee experience is relatively new and rarely addressed by
researchers in Poland. The study extended the research on employee experience to hybrid and
remote employees. The results obtained contribute to the literature on employee experience,
hybrid working and remote working. They provide a better understanding of the differences
regarding the possibilities for shaping the employee experience of hybrid and remote
employees. They can be of value to both theoreticians and practitioners of human resource
management.
Keywords: employee experience, digital employee experience, hybrid work, remote work.

Disruptions to the delivery of cancer services resulting from climate change: A British Columbia perspective
Authors: Vázquez Diego Rodolfo Sánchez , Simkin Jonathan , Raymakers Adam
Published: December 2024

Climate change represents a significant challenge to planetary health due to its impacts on ecosystems, biodiversity, and human communities. Extreme climate events are projected to increase in both frequency and severity, including unpredictable rainfall, storms, flooding, heatwaves, droughts, and wildfires. The impacts of these events on individuals’ health, security, and survival are likely to be significant. However, the specific effects of climate change on cancer risk, quality of life, and mortality remain largely unquantified. Climate events are considered an important challenge to the burden on cancer patients because these events cause disruptions in the delivery and quality of care to cancer patients.
During 2021, British Columbia (BC) faced two record-breaking weather events. First, during the summer, a ‘heat dome’ occurred over the final ten days of June that caused an excess of 569 deaths. Later in the same year in the southwestern region of BC, severe floods devastated communities and key transportation routes, between November and December. These major climate events have had both substantial effects on individuals’ day-to-day lives and long-term effects for many. These disruptions in healthcare services pose a risk to cancer patients; interruptions in cancer treatment of even one month represents a significant risk of lower quality of life and increased mortality.
We have yet to capture the full impact of the specific climate events such as the heat dome and flooding of 2021 on the delivery of cancer services and the corresponding patient outcomes in our province. The climate events that occurred in 2021 showed that further research is urgently needed for developing new protocols and guidelines in the Canadian healthcare system to adapt climate change.

Authors: Judson Gillian , Dougherty Meaghan
Published: December 2024

This research examines the role of imagination in relational leadership. Specifically, through a case study of a unique offering of an imagination-focused MEd program in Educational Leadership in a large, public research institution in British Columbia, Canada, the following question was explored: How do participants understand imagination’s role in leadership after completing a two-year imagination-focused MEd leadership program? The 13 participants—all aspiring and emerging leaders in their professional settings—shared their developing conceptions of leadership, imagination, and the role of imagination in educational leadership. Participants articulated how imagination contributes to understanding of themselves as leaders, engaging others with empathy, and building connections. The relational role of imagination was a dominant theme. According to participants, imagination is necessary for forming and enriching relationships, and reciprocally, relationships enhance imagination. Participants indicated how imagination supports their sense of belonging; imagination allowed participants to see themselves as potential leaders, and to feel they belonged “at the leadership table”. According to these preliminary findings, imagination may also create more opportunity in leadership. Overall, imagination emerges in this study as promoting not only relational, but humanizing leadership practices. This research contributes to understandings of relational leadership and highlights directions for future research. It identifies new directions for supporting equity and diversity in educational leadership and has clear implications for leadership education.

This research aims to examine the financial performance and profit growth of manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (years 2019 – 2021). This study was conducted using an associative quantitative approach on 129 manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the years 2019 - 2021. The method used in the data analysis process involved the assistance of SmartPLS 4 software. The results of this study indicate that the current ratio, debt to equity, and return on assets are negative and do not have a significant effect on profit growth in manufacturing companies. The conclusion of this research reveals that the influence of the current ratio, debt to equity, and return on assets on profit growth from 2019 to 2021 is not significant and does not affect profit growth; thus, the hypothesis that an increase in the current ratio, debt to equity ratio, and return on assets will impact the development of these companies is incorrect. This finding is very useful for financial statement users in assessing and making decisions

Authors: Cardozo Daniele dos Santos , Schultz Assiane Winck , Harb Ana Beatriz Cauduro
Published: December 2024

RESUMOIntrodução: A sociedade contemporânea organiza suas atividades predominantemente em torno do ciclo diurno, sincronizado com o ritmo circadiano humano. No entanto, a crescente demanda por serviços 24 horas tem levado à proliferação de jornadas de trabalho noturnas. Essa inversão dos ciclos de sono e vigília impõe desafios significativos ao organismo, interfe-rindo no funcionamento fisiológico e comprometendo a qualidade de vida dos trabalhadores. Objetivo: Identificar o estado nutricional e analisar o consumo alimentar de trabalhadores noturnos. Metodologia: A população do estudo foi composta pelos 26 funcionários do Servi-ço de Nutrição e Dietética (SND) do turno da noite de um hospital de Porto Alegre/RS. Uma entrevista foi realizada para investigar as condições de saúde, características sociodemográfi-cas, qualidade do sono e consumo alimentar. Resultados: O Índice de Massa Corporal médio foi de 28,7 (±6,1) kg/m² e a maioria dos participantes apresentou sobrepeso ou obesidade (57,6%). Além disto apresentaram qualidade de sono comprometida e hábitos alimentares inadequados, especialmente em relação ao consumo de carboidratos. A maior parte era do sexo feminino (88,5%), idade entre 18 a 60 anos, tempo de trabalho noturno entre 5 a 15 anos, 53,85% com ensino médio completo, 57,7% não praticava exercícios e 61,5% conside-rou a qualidade do sono entre ruim e razoável. Uma pequena diferença de ganho de peso (1,6 (±4,5) kg) foi encontrada entre a coleta e o início do trabalho noturno (p=0,076). Foi encon-trada associação entre o consumo de carboidratos e a obesidade, sugerindo a necessidade de intervenções nutricionais específicas para este grupo profissional. Conclusão: Trabalhadores noturnos do setor de nutrição apresentam maior prevalência de sobrepeso e obesidade, além de dificuldades para dormir. O estudo indicou que, embora haja uma tendência de aumento de peso após o início do trabalho noturno, essa diferença não foi estatisticamente significativa. Fatores como a baixa prática de atividade física e hábitos alimentares inadequados podem estar contribuindo para o problema. É necessário realizar mais pesquisas com amostras maio-res para confirmar esses resultados e investigar os mecanismos que ligam o trabalho noturno ao ganho de peso.Palavras-chave: estado nutricional; consumo de alimentos; ritmo circadiano; relógios bio-lógicos; trabalhadores.

Published: December 2024

Introduction: The main aim of this research was to determine whether there are statistically significant correlations between TMG variables and jumping performance. Materials and Methods: Twenty-five healthy and physically active male students (age: 20.84 ± 0.99 years; body height: 179.46 ± 5.91 cm; body weight: 73.88 ± 6.43 kg) of the Faculty of Sport and Physical Education participated in this study. Radial displacement, contraction time and delay time of the m. vastus lateralis were collected to assess muscles’ contractile characteristics using tensiomyography (TMG). Additionally, squat jump and countermovement jump height were recorded using the Optojump system. Results: A very high, negative, statistically significant correlation between both power assessment variables and the radial displacement variable was found; more specifically, the cor-relation between CMJ and radial displacement amounted to r = -.80, p < .01, while for SJ and radial displacement the correlation amounted to r = -.73, p < .01. High, negative, statistically significant correlations (r = -.61 to -.69, p < .01) were achieved among all other variables. Conclusion: TMG parameters could successfully predict jumping performance in the studied sample of male students.

Bu çalışma, Osmanlı Devleti’nde Kız Rüştiyelerinin kuruluş süreci ve bu okulların toplum üzerindeki etkilerini ele almaktadır. 19. yüzyılın ikinci yarısından itibaren Osmanlı Devleti’nde kadın eğitimi, Batı’daki modernleşme hareketlerinin etkisiyle dönüşüm yaşamıştır. Kız çocuklarının eğitimi, toplumsal yapının modernleşmesi ve geleneksel cinsiyet rollerinin değişimi açısından kritik bir rol oynamıştır.
Kız rüştiyeleri, ilk olarak 1858 yılında kurulan Darülmuallimat (kadın öğretmen okulu) ile eğitim sistemine dâhil olmuştur. Bu okullar, kadınların meslek edinmesine olanak sağlayarak, özellikle öğretmenlik mesleğinde istihdam edilmelerini mümkün kılmıştır. Eğitimdeki bu gelişme, hem kadınların toplumsal statüsünde bir dönüşüme yol açmış hem de aile ve toplum hayatında yeni bir anlayışın gelişmesine katkı sağlamıştır. Çalışmada, Kız Rüştiyelerinin kurulmasının kadınların kamusal hayata katılımını nasıl etkilediği ve eğitim yoluyla sağlanan fırsatların sosyal ve kültürel etkileri analiz edilmektedir.
Sonuç olarak, Osmanlı Devleti’nde kadın eğitiminin modernleşmesi, geleneksel yapıları sarsarak yeni bir toplumsal düzenin oluşumuna katkı sağlamış; Kız Rüştiyeleri ise bu sürecin önemli bir kilometre taşı olarak değerlendirilmiştir.

Motivation, attitude, and anxiety are significant to overall academic achievement. However, these variables were often looked at in isolation. This study examined reading motivation and attitude, reading anxiety, and reading frequency among high school students in Indonesia (n = 4738). Three close-ended questionnaires—the Foreign Language Reading Attitudes and Motivation Scale (FLRAMS), the Foreign Language Reading Anxiety Scale (FLRAS), and a reading frequency scale—were employed and distributed electronically. Descriptive quantitative analysis was used to map the current condition of reading based on three variables. The data revealed the correlation between reading motivation and attitude with reading frequency in L1 and L2 and reading anxiety in two different realms. The result showed that the level of motivation and attitude (M= 2.75; SD= 0.45) and anxiety (M= 2.71; SD= 0.49) in reading was at a moderate-to-high level. The L1 and L2 reading frequency differed in that L1 was at 5-6 hours a week (M= 2.81; SD= 1.06) and L2 at 2-4 hours a week (M= 1.82; SD= 0.87). The correlation then showed a positive significant correlation between reading motivation and frequency in both L1 and L2, though positively weak in L1 (p value= 0.000 < 0.05, r = 0.075) and very weakly negative in L2 (p value= 0.000 < 0.05; r= -0.058). Reading anxiety did not significantly correlate with L1 reading frequency (p value= 0.538 > 0.05; r = 0.009) but showed a significant correlation in L2 (p value= 0.003 < 0.05, r = -0.043). The result highlights the need for effective reading strategies and comprehensive teacher strategies that address diverse student needs. It finally emphasizes the importance of integrating cognitive and socio-cultural factors into literacy theories to enhance overall literacy outcomes, particularly in reading.

Background: Anemia in pregnant women is still a global public health problem, especially those domiciled in coastal areas this study aims to analyze the relationship between the incidence of anemia and the level of maternal knowledge, and the consumption of Fe tablets in pregnant women in the coastal area of North Buton Regency, Southeast Sulawesi Province.
Methods: This study used a cross sectional method, carried out in the working area of the Kulisusu Health Center, North Buton Regency by involving 126 pregnant women who met the sample criteria. The sampling technique was carried out by simple random sampling. Data analysis uses the chi square test with a significance value of p<0.05.
Results: The results showed that the incidence of anemia was related to the knowledge of pregnant women (P-value < 0.000) and the consumption of Fe tablets (P-value < 0.000).
Conclusion: There is a relationship between the incidence of anemia and maternal knowledge and consumption of Fe tablets. Therefore, the incidence of anemia during pregnancy can be prevented by consuming at least 90 Fe tablets during pregnancy, improving nutritional intake during pregnancy and educating nutrition and health related to pregnancy problems
State-sponsored terrorism as a component of international conspiracy and political engineering

Published: December 2024

State-sponsored terrorism refers to supporting, financing, or sponsoring terrorist activities by a government or state entity. The United States Department of State (DoS) designates countries that contend to have repeatedly provided support for acts of international terrorism as state sponsors of terrorism. As of 2023, the list consists of five countries namely; Cuba, Iran, North Korea, and Syria. Previously, countries on the list included Iraq, Libya, South Yemen, and Sudan (dos, 2023). State sponsorship of terrorism although not as hegemonic as in past decades. The concept remains a multifaceted phenomenon faced in the international system which the superpower countries are yet to adequately mitigate, despite its threat to national and global security. This paper adopts the desk research approach by reviewing relevant and extant literature gleaned from secondary sources such as published and unpublished materials, journal articles, and the internet. It also examines the notion that state-sponsored terrorism is an act of international conspiracy, as well as political engineering. Findings show that some superpower countries are guilty of being tagged as sponsors of state terrorism as they also use violence as an instrument to protect their national interest, attain their foreign policy dictates, and survive the internal system. Therefore, recommended that Nigeria should effect major changes in its foreign policy towards the development of robust counter-terrorism measures against states capable of sponsoring terrorism within the West African sub-region strengthen its military base, and improve border security to protect its territorial sovereignty.
The new era imminent and conflicting world order

Published: December 2024

In recent years, our world has experienced a multitude of significant transformations that merit close examination. While certain developments reflect positive trends associated with advancements in technology, globalization, and international cooperation, many resultant shifts have engendered heightened levels of caution and anxiety among nations and populations alike. Notably, the established balance of power, which has historically underpinned global order and stability, appears increasingly precarious. In light of these rapidly evolving geopolitical dynamics, it is imperative for the international community to prioritize strategies that prevent conflicts from spiralling into critical crises. The challenges posed by ongoing armed conflicts—particularly in pivotal regions such as Europe and the Middle East—underscore the necessity for a concerted, responsible approach to issues of war and peace. This includes an urgent call to action for the immediate cessation of hostilities, which can be achieved through mutual compromises, robust arms control measures, the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons, and the strengthening of international organizations tasked with conflict resolution. This study underscores the focus on the fostering of peace in this tumultuous landscape, and therefore, demands a collaborative commitment to constructing a more secure and cooperative world.
Mitigating AI bias in financial decision-making: A DEI perspective
Authors: Omogbeme Angela  , Oyindamola Modupe Odewuyi
Published: December 2024

The growing reliance on Artificial Intelligence (AI) in financial decision-making offers significant potential for increased efficiency and innovation but also raises critical concerns about perpetuating existing inequities. As financial services adopt AI for tasks like credit scoring, loan approvals, and investment analysis, the risk of algorithmic bias impacting marginalized groups has garnered significant attention. Biases in training data, model design, and deployment processes can lead to discriminatory outcomes, undermining efforts to promote Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). Addressing these challenges requires a comprehensive framework for aligning AI systems with DEI principles. This study analyses the risks of AI reinforcing systemic inequities in financial decision-making and identifies key strategies for mitigating these biases. Transparent algorithmic processes are essential to enable stakeholders to understand decision-making logic and detect potential biases. Accountability mechanisms, such as regular audits and independent evaluations, ensure that AI systems comply with ethical standards and DEI objectives. Inclusivity must be prioritized in both data collection and model design, ensuring diverse representation to reduce inherent biases. By implementing these strategies, financial institutions can leverage AI to drive equitable decision-making, fostering trust among stakeholders while addressing regulatory and societal demands. This paper proposes a roadmap for developing and deploying bias-mitigating AI systems in financial services, with a focus on creating fair, inclusive, and accountable models. Through case studies and best practices, it highlights actionable solutions to bridge the gap between technological innovation and ethical imperatives, ensuring AI serves as a tool for equity and inclusion rather than a perpetuator of inequality.
