Authors: Tu Lihui , Hong Huanjie 
Published: December 2024

Introduction:A combination of internal characteristics, such as motivation, personality, beliefs, and dispositions that combine with external circumstances to affect student results is referred to as teaching efficacy. The English-speaking environment becomes a major problem as students learn by interaction. To communicate effectively, they do not acquire the speaking and listening abilities necessary in English. Objective:This study examines the impact of computer programming courses and learning analytics on student’s computer programming skills. Methods:In this study, we proposed a novel Dung Beetle Optimized Flexible Random Forest (DBO-FRF) to evaluate the teaching effectiveness. In this study, 175 students’ data were collected for teaching effectiveness. Using student data, prediction model was constructed based on the attributes of the students, their past academic records, their interactions with online resources, and their advancement in laboratory work related to programming. The proposed method is compared to other traditional algorithms. Results and conclusion:The proposed method is implemented using Python software. The expected performance in the course and, in the instance that any submitted programs failed to meet the requirements, a programming recommendation from one of the class’s top students. The result shows the proposed method achieved better performance in terms of accuracy, precision, recall, and [Formula: see text]1-score. This decreased the performance gap between students who performed lower and those who performed higher, enabling students who adjusted their programs to learn more.
Couldn’t Be Happier: The Non-Identity Intuition and Valuing People
Authors: Fischer Jessica J.T. 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
This paper raises a worry about the non-identity intuition. As one part of the non-identity problem, the non-identity intuition tells us that when choosing between bringing a person with a good life into existence and bringing a person with a great life into existence, we have moral reason to bring the person with a great life into existence. But there is a worry to be had about the non-identity intuition. Because the non-identity intuition compares future persons exclusively in regard to their well-being, the non-identity intuition values future persons solely for the well-being enjoyed by each of them. Therefore, or so the worry goes, the non-identity intuition fails to be compatible with what it means to value persons for their own sake.
survey of mite lifespans: preface to part 3
Authors: ZHANG ZHI-QIANG 
Published: December 2024

This volume is part 3 of a series of surveys of mite lifespans and related life history data. The first part in 2021 covered the suborder Oribatida (excluding Astigmata), Winterschmidtiidae, Eriophyoidea, Tydeidae, Anystidae, Cheyletidae, and Blattisociidae (Zhang 2021). The second part (Zhang 2022) included reviews of life history data for three important families of economic importance: Tetranychidae (Li et al. 2022), Phytoseiidae (Han et al. 2022), and Laelapidae (Zhang et al. 2022). I am pleased to introduce Part 3 of this series, with three reviews for the superorder Parasitiformes: the order Ixodida, or the ticks (Chen et al. 2024), the family Parasitidae (Lewandowski & Pińkowska 2024), and the family Rhodacaridae (Momen et al. 2024). About 10% of the 960 tick species are of importance in animal and human health, and we have life history data reviewed for 12.2% of the species (Chen et al. 2024). It is noteworthy that the longest-living mite is a soft tick—Argas brumpti Neumann—which had survived for 27 years in the laboratory (Shepherd 2022).

Abstract
Background
We have previously shown headache disorders to be prevalent in in the adult general population of Morocco, especially migraine (30.8%) and headache on ≥ 15 days/month (H15+; 10.5%). This study, collecting data from the same population-based sample, is the first to estimate headache-attributed burden not only in Morocco but, more widely, in the Maghreb countries of North Africa.

Methods
We used the standard methodology and questionnaire developed by the Global Campaign against Headache. Cluster-based random sampling generated a sample (N = 2,575) representative of the general population aged 18–65 years. Interviews conducted face-to-face enquired into symptom burden (headache frequency, usual duration and usual intensity), and impaired participation in paid work, household work and social or leisure activities during the preceding 3 months. Further enquiry was into headache yesterday (HY). We calculated population-level estimates by factoring in prevalence. Needs assessment estimated the population proportion in need of headache-related health care based on likelihood of benefit.

Results
Participants with headache of any type spent, on average, 12.5% of their time with headache of intensity rated 2.3 on a scale of 1–3. According to age- and gender-corrected estimates, 7.2–8.4% of all time in the population (calculated by two methods) was spent with headache, H15 + accounting for well over half of this. Impaired participation measured as lost time due to headache averaged 0.5 days from paid work, 1.6 days from household work and 0.3 days from social or leisure activities during the preceding 3 months. Of those with HY (17.8% of the sample), 24.1% of males and 50.9% of females could do nothing or less than half of their planned activity yesterday. At population level this diluted to 7.0% of all activity lost to headache. At least 30% of the population were estimated to need headache-related health care.

Conclusion
Headache disorders cause much ill health in the adult population of Morocco. While this will be of obvious concern to health policy in Morocco, the call for provision of health care for almost one third of this population is challenging. On the other hand, economic policy should recognise the lost-productivity costs of inadequately treated headache, especially migraine.
Outcomes of Laparoscopic Radical Hysterectomy in Ia1-Ib1 Cervical Cancer Patients: A Multi-Center Study with 10 Years’ Experiences in the Real World

Published: December 2024

Abstract

Background
The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the outcomes of laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (LRH) for International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) 2018 stage IA1 IB1 patients with low-risk cervical cancer (CC), which was defined as tumor ≤ 2cm, less than 1/2 stromal invasion and no lymph node involvement.

Patients and Methods
We performed a retrospective analysis of patients with CC who underwent radical hysterectomy across three hospitals between 2010 and 2020. The patients were stratified into low-risk and high-risk groups based on risk factors (tumor size, lymph nodes and stromal invasion depth). Within each group, the survival outcomes of open abdominal radical hysterectomy (OARH) and LRH were compared using the Kaplan–Meier analysis.

Results
In the low-risk group (LRH: N = 320; OARH: N = 525), LRH demonstrated equivalence to OARH regarding 5-year overall survival (OS; 98.6% versus 99.3%, P = 0.571) and 5-year progression-free survival (PFS; 97.6% versus 98.4%, P = 0.418). Subsequently, a stratified analysis based on lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) status revealed no significant differences in 5-year OS and PFS between LRH and OARH in this group. Conversely, in the high-risk group (LRH: N = 355; OARH: N = 926), LRH exhibited significantly lower 5-year OS and PFS than OARH (91.3% versus 94.8%, P = 0.049; 84.0% versus 88.8%, P = 0.029).

Conclusion
Among FIGO 2018 stage IA1–IB1 patients with low-risk CC, LRH demonstrates survival outcomes comparable to OARH. For patients with early-stage and low-risk CC, the appropriate surgical approach (LRH) can be chosen based on preoperative enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) MRI, which is clinically feasible.
“Workers without Borders:” Envisioning Sociality in Xiao Hai’s Poems
Authors: Yang Xin 
Published: December 2024

New worker poetry has emerged as a unique literary voice in contemporary China. This paper places Chinese new workers as the global working class and focuses on the poetics of their global vision. Through a close reading of poems written by Xiao Hai (1980-), one of the prolific worker poets, I argue that the new worker poet constructs global sociality at the levels of aesthetics, social critique, and cultural proposal. Aesthetically, Xiao Hai has borrowed inspiration from classical Chinese poetry, western counter-culture icons, and contemporary avant-garde spirit in his writings on laborers’ ordeals. Global sociality embodies a powerful critique of hierarchical global systems in which laborers are positioned at the bottom. It is also a cultural ideal rooted in revolutionary nostalgia and classical notions, a passionate call for connection among like-minded people, and an awareness of workers’ shared identity. Raising their voices in poetry, Xiao Hai, as well as other worker poets, actively explore opportunities to make their voices heard on a broader scale
Crime of Abuse in the Light of University Students’ Opinions and Court Statistics
Authors: Kałdon Barbara Małgorzata 
Published: December 2024

ObjectivesThe article is based on empirical data. It covers crimes specified in Art. 207 of the Penal Code, including the amendment to the Penal Code of July 7, 2022, i.e., hereinafter referred to as “Zmkk2022” (Ustawa 07.07.2022). The aim of the research was to find out the opinions of students regarding hypothetical penalties that should be imposed for crimes specified in Art. 207 of the Penal Code and to compare them with legally binding regulations.Material and methodsThe author based her research on the survey method and on the interpretative-descriptive methodology, specific primarily to legal professions (Dobosz, 2001, p. 24), using the purposive method of interpretation, which consisted in defining the legislator’s purpose of implementing the regulation (Łętowski, 1995, p. 45).ResultsAlthough, the introduction of new statutory limits of penalties for acts punishable by imprisonment under Article 207 § 3 of the Penal Code may undoubtedly be assessed positively, in view of the results of the survey conducted for the purposes of this article, the indicated penalties still seem to be too low. The respondents expressed their preference for long-term penalties of imprisonment, and even occasionally opted for the introduction of death penalty, which is currently not envisaged by Polish legislation.ConclusionsThe conducted research was aimed at understanding the viewpoint of the general public in the scope of preferences regarding the minimum and maximum penalty of imprisonment for crimes specified in Article 207 of the Penal Code. The opinions expressed by the respondents regarding the possible penalties for the above-mentioned prohibited acts vary significantly from the limits specified in the Code as well as from actual penalties imposed by courts.
Adaptation to the challenges of adulthood and the level of depressiveness. Comparison of the control and clinical groups in the context of the theory of positive youth development
Authors: Barłóg Mateusz , Zając Angelika 
Published: December 2024

ObjectivesThis article addresses the issue of depression and the development of competencies that promote adaptation to adulthood. The foundation of the presented research is the theory of positive development based on strengthening the potential of the individual and focusing less on deficits. Offering creative leisure time, is at the same time a distraction from inappropriate behavior.Material and methodsThe article analyzed the relationship between the level of depressiveness and indicators of adaptation to adulthood (mentioned in the theory of positive development). Self-esteem and interpersonal emotion regulation strategies were also included in the analysis, as the mentioned individual and environmental factors are important resources in coping with stress. The study conducted on a group of 184 people, of which 150 were the control group and 34 were the clinical group.ResultsThe analysis of the results leads to the conclusion that there is a relationship between the indicators of adaptation to adulthood and the level of depression. Both selected indicators of positive youth development, self-esteem and selected interpersonal emotion regulation strategies constitute resources that protect against depression.ConclusionsPreventive actions should include strengthening self-esteem and be based on recognizing potential and strengths, in accordance with the theory of positive development.
Consumer Confidence Index (CCI) for European countries - relation to objective household financial situation
Authors: Grzywińska-Rąpca Malgorzata , Ptak - Chmielewska Aneta 
Published: December 2024

ObjectivesThe Consumer Confidence Index (CCI) has been constructed in order to measure consumer attitudes. Its construction takes into account not only the assessment of the current financial and economic situation in the country and the current level of savings, but also the expectations of consumers with regard to the above-mentioned areas of life and the management of financial resources. The objectives of the article are (1) to test and select the components contributing to the consumer confidence index by proposing a new approach to its calculation and (2) to test the links between consumer sentiment and the level of financial instruments held by European households.Material and methodsThe modelling was carried out using data on the components of the Consumer Confidence Index (CCI) for the countries of the European Union and data on the financial situation of households. The data were taken from the Eurostat database. The analysis period covers the period 2015-2022, depending on data availability.ResultsThe results presented in this study indicate a statistically significant relationship between the subjective assessment of household finances and the actual financial situation of households. The analysis carried out made it possible to select the components that make up the consumer confidence index and to propose a new approach to its calculation.
The study of the impact of the individual components of the CCI therefore constitutes a very important area of research crucial for modelling economic phenomena.ConclusionsBased on the available literature, we can conclude that the issue of household financial well-being is a complex, multidimensional phenomenon. Relying solely on objective monetary factors does not allow us to identify the main determinants of household financial behaviour.
Artificial Intelligence and Social-Emotional Learning: what relationship?
Authors: Indellicato Rosa 
Published: December 2024

ObjectivesAmong the skills included in the Compass for Tomorrow are new skills for teachers and educators in the context of emotional artificial intelligence. Is it possible to teach social-emotional skills? And how is it possible to do so? Can socio-emotional competences be considered as curricular standards?
This contribution aims to answer these questions, highlighting opportunities and risks that the digital revolution and affective computing pose today.Material and methodsIn order to explore the relationship between artificial intelligence (AI) and Social-Emotional Learning (SEL), a multidisciplinary approach combining technological and psycho-pedagogical research methods is required.
Main sources: scientific databases (e.g. Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus), educational and technological journals; case studies where AI is integrated into SEL programmes.ResultsArtificial intelligence can play a key role in teaching social-emotional skills, helping students develop skills such as empathy, self-management, social awareness, and effective interpersonal relationships. AI platforms can create simulated or interactive scenarios that allow students to practise managing complex social situations.ConclusionsIn conclusion, we can say that AI can help teachers in their work by facilitating the identification of suitable strategies to foster and develop social-emotional competences in students. It can also help to broaden and achieve that vision suitable for understanding and fostering school inclusion, which is the goal to be achieved (Rivoltella, 2014).
It must also be emphasised that training and refresher courses are needed to use robotics correctly, to assist schools in their choice of aid and to train teachers in the acquisition of skills or teaching practices that make its use effective.

ObjectivesThe aim of the analysis of the research results was to find out about changes in the system of values and life aspirations of the young generation of Poles from the perspective of the thirty years (1989-2019). The research was conducted in 1989, 1995, 2000 and 2019 was carried out based on comparative analyses, using a uniform research tool in all four research periods.Material and methodsMy research in 1989, 1995, 2000 and 2019 was carried out in order to find out facts, as well as opinions and attitudes used to describe the life politics of the Polish youth. I carried out comparative analyses, using a uniform research tool in all four research periods.ResultsThe results of the research indicate a clash occurring between the bearers of consumerism and emancipation values. They are the ones that dominate the aspirations and aspirations of Poland's young generation for their own and the country's civilizational advancement.ConclusionsThe generation of civilisation advancement is a term which reaches the heart of the processes of forming aspirations, system of values, lifestyles and goals of today's young generation, not only in Poland, but globally - in varying degrees of intensity in various countries, as indicated by the results of research conducted in Poland.
CSR practices in human capital management in local government administration on the example of Staszów county in Świętokrzyskie voivodeship
Authors: Kusto Barbara Anna , Klepacki Bogdan 
Published: December 2024

ObjectivesIn recent years, there have been a number of initiatives to promote the social responsibility of public administration. The concept has largely become recognized in the central administration, but it is different at the regional or local administration level. Thus, the purpose of the study is to identify, review CSR activities and assess the extent of their application in the area of human resources management in local government units, i.e. at the local level. An indirect goal of the study is also to promote the idea of social responsibility among representatives of regional and local administrations.Material and methodsThe purpose of the research was to identify and review CSR activities and assess the extent of their application in the area of human capital management in local government units at the local level. The research was conducted using a structured interview with municipal managers (mayors, secretaries of municipalities) according to a prepared interview questionnaire.ResultsThe research identified CSR practices used by municipalities in the area of human capital management. These were mainly related to organizing working time, integrating employees, building ethical standards, and spreading preventive health and healthy lifestyles.ConclusionsIn the surveyed municipal offices, practices were identified that can be categorized as activities within the framework of social responsibility of administration, mainly in such areas as work organization, integration of employees, building ethical standards or spreading preventive health and healthy lifestyles. 5.	CSR activities undertaken in offices also testify to the growing awareness of local government management of the importance of the human factor for the efficiency of the entity, as well as the influence of employees on its performance.
Personal dispositions for the sense of coherence in people with physical disability
Authors: Olejnik Urszula 
Published: December 2024

ObjectivesThe process of adaptation in people with physical disability is conditioned by a number of interrelated psychological and social factors, such as e.g.: sense of coherence, self-concept and patterns of psychosocial reactions to disability. This study presents the relationships between the sense of coherence and personal dispositions, such as the self-concept and different patterns of reactions to disability in persons with physical disability.Material and methodsThe following measures were used in the study: The Sense of Coherence Questionnaire (SOC-29) by Aaron Antonovsky, The Tennessee Self-Concept Scale by William H. Fitts, The Reactions to Impairment and Disability Inventory (RIDI) by Hanoch Livneh and Richard F. Antonak. Data are presented from 204 people with physical disability, including 86 female (42.16 %) and 118 male (57.84 %) respondents.ResultsThe study has shown relationships between the majority of analysed variables. Predictors of the sense of coherence in respondents with physical disability were two reactions: adjustment and anxiety. Each reaction marked its predictive power in all components of the sense of coherence and its summed score. Adjustment enhanced whereas anxiety weakened the sense of coherence. Adjustment was most often supported by moral-ethical self-concept and personal self-concept, whereas anxiety by the social self-concept and, although to a lesser extent, physical self-concept.ConclusionsSense of coherence is an important factor impacting social rehabilitation of people with physical disability, as it is associated with the sense of meaningfulness in these individuals, guiding them to undertake any daily professional or social activities.
Selected elements of crisis communication

Published: December 2024

ObjectivesThe aim of this article is to identify the significance of the crisis for the functioning of the company and to find possible ways to solve it. This setting of the research objective should allow the research problem to be identified and solved as follows: how should an ‘entrepreneur’ behave in order to avoid or relatively smoothly pass through a crisis in a company.Material and methodsIn order to solve the research problem and realise the research objective, research methods such as analysis of literature and legal acts, comparison, analysis, synthesis, inductive and deductive reasoning and abstraction, among others, were used.ResultsThe above made it possible to clarify working results and generalisations: the company should ensure crisis preparedness. In order to ensure that information about the crisis does not spread and gain momentum, thereby weakening the financial situation or image of the company, it must react quickly to emerging threats by monitoring the symptoms of the crisis. Early detection and precisely developed operational procedures can lead the company out of the crisis without excessive losses. The earlier the symptoms of a crisis are recognised, the smaller the losses.ConclusionsEfficient communication can effectively (efficiently) prevent a crisis from spreading further both outside and inside the company.
