CENTRALIZATION AND CORPORATE GREENING PRACTICES IN A HIGH-RISK SECTOR
Authors: Azeez Adebayo A. , Muo IK , Oladimeji M. S. 
Published: December 2024

The trend of an ongoing global environmental crisis amidst various devastating impacts on biodiversity is increasing. Unfortunately, while many organizations are indulging in unsustainable business practices by pursuing profitability at the expense of sustainability, only some committed to mitigating the worsening global humanitarian escalations are finding it difficult to attain their sustainability set goals due to unsupportive structures. Hence, the present study examined the effect of centralization structure (OSC) on corporate greening practices (CG) in the downstream sector in southwest Nigeria. To achieve the set objective, the study adopted a survey design and used a stratified random sampling technique, structured questionnaire (adapted), Survey Monkey Software, and Raosoft sample size calculator to select 410 respondents from 1,732 population of the lower-level managers. The 326 valid responses collected were analysed using the Categorical Regression Model at a 5% significance level because the data collected were categorical. The study findings showed that OSC, though it has a positive relationship with CG, but its effect was insignificant. The study concluded that OSC is not a good predictor of CG practices in the downstream sector in southwest Nigeria. Therefore, it is recommended that OSC be blended with other structural elements, particularly professionalization, to promote pro-environmental behaviours among the employees and foster a safe and conducive environment in the sector. Finally, the study findings offered valuable contributions that were useful for policymakers, stakeholders, and researchers, as well as adding to the existing body of knowledge in the field of management.

Published: December 2024

This study explores the relationship between navigating work-life boundaries and its influence on employee commitment and career success among millennials, with a focus on the moderating role of work-life balance. As the largest generation in the workforce, millennials prioritize work-life balance more than previous generations, viewing it as essential for job satisfaction and overall well-being. This research employs the quantitative approach to assess how millennials manage their work-life boundaries and the impact of these practices on their commitment to their organizations and their career advancement. A total of 324 employees in the Ghana service sector were included in this study. Convenience sampling techniques were adopted for the study, and the data were analyzed using a structural equation model and PLS-SEM. Data was gathered from millennials who work in various commercial banks within the Takoradi metropolis. Out of the four hypotheses formulated, three of them were significant and one insignificant. This study contributes to the understanding of millennial workforce dynamics and offers practical recommendations for organizations aiming to foster supportive environments that promote work-life balance, thereby enhancing employee engagement and retention. The study found that work-life boundary management significantly determines millennials’ employee commitment and career success. Work-life balance was found to moderate the relationship between managing work-life balance and employee career success. However, it did not moderate the relationship between managing work-life balance and employee commitment.

Promoting playfulness through a play-based occupational therapy intervention: A study protocol
Authors: Rautenbach Gaby , Hoosain Munira , Zunza Moleen , Plastow Nicola 
Published: December 2024

Background: Play is integral to optimal childhood development. Occupational therapists often use play to improve play skills. However, when it comes to learners with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in South Africa, there is limited research regarding play-based interventions that address the underlying motivators of play, namely, social play and playfulness.Objectives: In this study, the authors present a rationale for the development of a protocol for a study aiming to measure the impact of the Playbox Africa Intervention. This is a play-based occupational therapy intervention with the aim of enhancing the playfulness, social play and occupational performance of South African children with ASD.Method: The study will utilise a within-subject, repeated measures design and will be implemented over 16 weeks with 8–10 learners (aged 3–8 years) with ASD attending a developmental-centre environment in Johannesburg, South Africa. The playfulness and social play of the learners will be assessed using the Test of Playfulness (ToP). The modified Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (M-COPM) will be used to measure occupational performance factors.Results: Given that this protocol outlines an intervention that has not yet been implemented, there are no results to report on.Conclusion: The development of this protocol could encourage the adaption of existing play-based protocols, for children with ASD, perhaps within different settings or varying support needs.Contribution: Additionally, it could lay the foundation for future clinical trials and culturally relevant play-based interventions to be developed in the South African special needs context.

Authors: Kempen Elzana , Labuschagne Mathys J. , Jama Mpho P. 
Published: December 2024

Background: Standardised patient (SP) simulation can significantly enrich the learning environment in health professions education. Simulation in optometry has yet to be widely adopted, especially in Africa, prompting this study to investigate whether students perceived the use of SP simulation in optometry education as an effective method for enhancing the development and refinement of core competency skills.Aim: This study aimed to determine optometry students’ perceptions of simulation learning experiences with a SP.Setting: This study was done at the Department of Optometry at the University of the Free State, South AfricaMethods: A qualitative case study was undertaken. All 17 final-year optometry students (n = 17) were invited to participate. Data were collected using an open-ended questionnaire. Content analysis was used to analyse the experiences and perceptions of the participants.Results: The response rate was 100%. The students perceived that the educational objectives of the simulation experiences were successfully achieved. They felt that the simulation helped them develop core competencies like professionalism and communication while boosting their confidence. They attributed this success to the realistic, appropriate and safe learning environment that the simulation provided.Conclusion: The findings suggest that optometry students perceive SP simulations as a valuable tool in preparing them for private practice. This study highlighted the effectiveness of SP-based training in bridging the gap between academic learning and real-world practice.Contribution: This study is the first in South Africa to explore optometry students’ preparation for private practice through SP simulation. The findings offer insights that can guide other optometry programs using SPs to support students’ holistic development, enhancing their professionalism and readiness for practice.

Published: December 2024

Leaders’ morality in the context of principals in Christian school is of great significance in the education environment. However, there are gaps between religious insights, western education and principal’s leadership in Christian schools in Indonesia. Anthropological, social, cultural and other differences can pose hindrances to the effective implementation of external ideas. Therefore, this research emphasises the importance of embracing moral religious leadership values from local cultural heritage that are appropriate to the Indonesian context. Tonaas and Walian leadership in Minahasa are promising alternatives that can contribute to the discourse on principals’ morality in Christian school. This research adopts a descriptive qualitative methodology, critical analysis and argumentation to explore the intersection of moral leadership, local cultural heritage and educational leadership in Christian schools in Indonesia. As a result, the morality values of Tonaas and Walian religious leaders in Minahasa demonstrate the significance of responsibility towards the Christian school environment.Contribution: The results of this study contribute to the conversation about morality among leaders in the Christian school environment. Specifically, the religious leadership of Tonaas and Walian in Minahasa provides valuable local insights that are relevant to the context of education and principals in Indonesia.
Mission schools as seedbed for social transformation: Lessons drawn from the Methodist Church
Authors: Masvotore Peter 
Published: December 2024

In Africa, and in Zimbabwe in particular, education has played a critical role in transforming society through missionaries who brought education as inseparable from Christianity. This article argues that mission school education was a pillar of transformation and that mission schools functioned as centres of integration facilitation where learners discovered how to contribute in the change of their biosphere. It further argues that Zimbabwean mission schools are still bearing fruit in various contexts as seedbeds of social transformation. For Zimbabwe, education was and is still the hub of social transformation. Using a desk research approach of historical analysis and participant observation, this article explores how Zimbabwean Methodism transforms society by remaining within the academic niche that continues to facilitate societal transformation. It also discusses how the Methodist Church in Zimbabwe (MCZ) has influenced universal transformation processes through mission schools. The article concludes that mission schools are positive contributors to social transformation in Zimbabwe today, and that no transformation can be argued to have taken place without them.Contribution: This study contributes to the ongoing academic niche that facilitates social transformation through mission schools in society. This also feeds into fulfilling the Sustainable Development Goal 4 of quality education which is contributed by mission schools.
Effectiveness of dissemination strategies of maternal clinical guidelines: A narrative review
Authors: Atsali Eunice N. , Kaura Doreen , Tomlinson Mark 
Published: December 2024

Background: Maternal clinical guidelines (MCGs) provide evidence-based recommendations for skilled birth professionals (SBPs) at the point of care. The dissemination strategies and use of MCGs are inconsistent among skilled birth providers despite their potential to improve the maternal care outcomes.Aim: This study examined the effectiveness of dissemination strategies of MCGs by SBPs in a primary care setting.Method: We searched in Medline, PubMed, CINAHL and Google Scholar. Search terms were effectiveness, dissemination and use, MCGs, SBPs and primary health care facilities. Studies published in English, conducted between 2010 and 2023 and focussing on dissemination strategies and use of MCGs were included. The final articles were presented in narrative format.Results: The search yielded 212 studies. After removing duplicates, seven articles that met the inclusion criteria for the review were included. The narrative review summarised the findings as: Use of MCGs which showed the barriers and enablers for the use of maternal guidelines. The level of adherence to MCGs was summarised, and one study showed the use of support supervision and collaboration improved aspects of MCGs.Conclusion: The findings show how skilled attendants acknowledge that MCGs can contribute to improving maternal outcomes. They further describe how, in practice, they are rarely used at the facility level. There is a need for more research on dissemination strategies to ensure improved use of MCGs in primary health care facilities.Contribution: We highlight the key gap in the dissemination of MCGs at primary health care facilities which if improved can potentially improve the use of MCGs.

Prevalence of problematic eating behavior and assessment of awareness on eating disorder among medical students
Authors: Priyam Aayush , Das Sudipta K. , Samantray Swayanka , Ravan Jayaprakash R. , Pattnaik Jigyansa I. 
Published: December 2024

Background:
There are few studies that highlight the problematic eating behavior of college students; however, similar data on the medical undergraduate population is sparse, especially in India. Awareness among medical students would be considered different compared to other students, owing to their training and education.

Aim:
To know the prevalence of problematic eating behavior in medical undergraduate students and to measure the extent of awareness regarding problematic eating behavior present amongst the students.

Materials and Methods:
The present study was a cross-sectional study conducted over 2 months that included students (1st -4th year and interns) aged 17–30 years, studying MBBS. Ethical approval to do the study was taken from the Institutional Ethics Committee. Purposive sampling was done. Those students who gave informed consent to be a part of this study and were not diagnosed with any severe mental and physical illness were included in this study. Socio-demographic data was collected in a semi-structured proforma. The questionnaire was given to the students to fill up. The questionnaire included EAT-26 (Eating Attitudes Test-26) score for screening the students for problematic eating behavior. For objectively assessing awareness amongst the students regarding the same, a few questions of knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) on problematic eating were included in the form. The result was analyzed using SPSS- 25 (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) and appropriate statistical tests.

Results:
Among Medical undergraduates, 19.9% had EAT-26 score more than or equal to 20, suggesting some problematic eating behavior. A total of 36.7% of students were obese, while 5.6% were underweight. Gender and background do not play any role in the causation of Problematic Eating Behaviour (PEB). There was a significant difference in the EAT score with respect to the education of the head of the family (P < 0.01), positive history of mental illness in the family (P = 0.01), positive history of childhood obesity (P < 0.01), and positive history of bullying (P < 0.01). Awareness or knowledge about eating disorders is high among MBBS graduates, which could be a protective factor in general.

Conclusion:
Obesity is a more concerning issue in the medical undergraduate population rather than underweight. Childhood obesity and bullying emerge as important factors affecting the eating attitudes and behavior among medical graduates
Depression, anxiety, and quality of life among kidney donors before and after the kidney donation: A prospective study from a tertiary care center in India
Authors: Chopra Geetika , Gaur Vikas 
Published: December 2024

Background:
Kidney donation is a significant procedure that can profoundly impact the emotional, psychological, and social well-being of renal donors. However, there is a lack of sufficient evidence regarding the specific effects of donation on the mental health and quality of life (QOL) of living kidney donors.

Aim:
To evaluate and compare the levels of depression, anxiety, and QOL among living kidney donors before and after the donation procedure.

Materials and Methods:
We conducted a prospective longitudinal cohort study involving 50 consecutive living renal donors, assessing them before and 3 months after kidney donation. Depression and anxiety were evaluated using the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D), respectively. Furthermore, the QOL of kidney donors was compared using the World Health Organization Quality of Life Brief Version (WHOQOL-BREF).

Result:
The average age of kidney donors was 40.86 ± 8.59 years. Pre-transplant HAM-D and HAM-A scores showed significant negative correlations with post-transplant QoL domains (**P < 0.001). Regression analysis highlighted pre-transplant HAM-D as a significant predictor of post-transplant depression (P = 0.013).

Conclusion:
Statistically significant differences in pre- and post-donation HAM-D and HAM-A scores were found, but clinical significance is crucial for interpreting real-world implications. Renal transplantation did not worsen mental health or QOL for donors post transplant, highlighting the importance of addressing pre-transplant depression and anxiety. Further research is needed to assess clinical significance and integrate mental health considerations into transplant care.
