Authors: Ismail Alice Sabrina , Zharani Erna Nuralia , Mohd Rashid Aiman 
Published: March 2024

National architectural identity is vital for a developing nation because it acts as a symbol of unity as well as instilling a sense of pride and affection for the country. However, the purpose of inculcating national identity in the countryâ€™s-built environment has not been well implemented by many involved parties and the crisis has surfaced in many public and government buildings typologies namely the higher learning institution in the Malaysian context. The purpose of this paper is to identify the national architecture identity issues and to highlight the factors that influence the development of prominent higher learning institutions found in the local context. Educational building typology was chosen as it has always reflected a societyâ€™s stage of development and influential to the countryâ€™s advancement. This paper employs a narrative-qualitative approach using the interpretive paradigm to study on three case studies related to administrative building facades of public higher educational institutions in Malaysia namely UKM, USIM, and IIUM. The analysis of these building facades is based on two main indicators namely the constant and dynamic local factors. Findings of the study in the form of established referential guideline design on national architectural identity for the higher educational institution will inform future designers, builders, education providers, and related authority on how to efficiently instils national identity approach. This is vital towards outlining the best possible interpretation of Malaysiaâ€™s architectural identity formation, so that the country can thrive in the face of turmoil in the future.

Authors: Zulkifely Zur Atiqa , Abu Bakar Aniza 
Published: March 2024

Masjid is said to be the centre of a community but is often associated with adults when children are also part of the community. The image portrayed in the society shows children are often marginalised in the masjid. Children at masjid have been a continuous debate from time to time within the community, particularly during the month of Ramadhan (fasting month of the Muslim calendar) as the number of children attending masjids increase. This paper aims to establish the issues concerning children and masjid in Malaysia. For this purpose, a systematic desktop study is performed. Through the use of Google search engine, data are collected from several sources which are the Facebook post, YouTube video, articles from e-newspaper, blog posts, and e-magazine. The data is analysed using NVivo software to accumulate related keywords to identify and establish issues on children at the masjid. This study focuses on two main domains which are masjid and children. The findings suggest that the issues of children at masjid revolve around four established themes which are the children themselves, physical space, management of the masjid, and jamaah of the masjid.

Published: March 2024

The bibliometric is a type of research method used in library and information science. The objective of the study are to overview the influences of street network elements comprises of street hierarchy , permeability and urban streetscapes in studying genome of urban morphologies. The quantitative analysis and statistic was used to describe a pattern of publication in the given body of literature. The publications from Scopus and Web of Science were compiled and anlyzed further. The finding shows that, the genome of urban morphologies have being influenced by the street network components nalemy street hierarchy, permeability and legibility, streescapes and pedestrian movement. These components were mutually present in the urban morphology genome which have the capability in accelerating the movement of city. Street hierarchy shows that hierarchical street becomes an organism that vital for the cityâ€™s development. The transition of hierarchical system of street contribute to the changes or evolution of the city from time to time. Meanwhile, permeability is represent the image of city. The physical and visual of image of a city is important to bring the city into global level. However, inconsistency of implementation of permeability element will provides a negative impact on the place. Urban streetscape is essential to avoid negative impression of the city images where it should provide visual richness to the city. Lastly, the pedestrian accessibility attract the movement of publis space with the integration of street network. In conclusion, the street network components mutually influenced the morphology of the city over time and become a backbone for the city to reflects the urbanization process. However, based on the bibliometric analysis, the study of street netwok morphology is not grasp sufficent attention from the Asian country.

This study aims to increase children's character according to the concept of Sirah Nabawiyah through storybooks of the Prophet's stories. The type of research used is classroom action research. This research was conducted in two cycles, each consisting of 4 meetings. Each cycle has four stages: planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. The subjects of this study were seven children consisting of 3 boys and four girls. The data collection technique is an observation sheet, where the observation sheet becomes a research instrument. The study's results were found after conducting this research, so data was obtained starting from the pre-cycle to cycle II, which in the pre-cycle, the children were not independent in carrying out activities, so the results in the pre-cycle were 0%. At the same time, in the first cycle, the children started developing by applying the concepts of sirah nabawiyah through story books. Then in cycle I, it increased by 19.0%, and in cycle II, children grew very well by doing it repeatedly to increase independence gradually to produce the expected indicators. Cycle II increased to 80.9%, which means an increase of 62%. In conclusion, children's character, such as independence, according to the Sirah Nabawiyah concept, has been successful.
Lifting: Black Feminist Leadership in the Fight Against HIV/AIDS
Authors: McLane-Davison Denise 
Published: March 2024

<p> This phenomenological study captured the unique perspectives and insight of how 10 black women experience and define leadership in their HIV/AIDS community work. Black feminist epistemology provided the framework for understanding how these women experienced leadership at the intersection of race/gender/power while working on behalf of marginalized and stigmatized community members. Salient themes that emerged from the analysis include leadership is situational and contextual, leadership is inclusive and collective, intent is more important than label, leadership is transformative, leadership is scrutinized, and power is centered in mothering relationships. Their leadership builds on the efforts of the liberation and racial uplift work of the 19th-century Black Women’s Club Movement and emerged as black feminist leadership to address the contemporary social injustice of HIV/AIDS </p>
Haudenosaunee Women as Mothers of the Nation: Resilience in the Wake of Indian Residential School Legacies
Authors: Juutilainen Sandra 
Published: March 2024

<p>This case study illustrates Haudenosaunee women's individual and collective strengths as 'mothers of the nation' in the wake of Indian residential school legacies. While most studies focus on at risk populations in research about the effects of Indian residential school, this case study privileges the Haudenosaunee concept of 'mothers of the nation' as a manifestation of resilience which is fundamental to building a self-determined identity. Insights were gathered from the narrative data of open ended questions from 13 structured interviews of Haudenosaunee women from Six Nations of the Grand River, Canada, who had a family member attend an Indian residential school. The women discussed their lived experiences of the intergenerational impacts to their health and wellbeing of having a family member attend an Indian residential school; and, their self-determined responses to healing for themselves and their community, which retells the fact 'despite all the harms done to us …we are still here', The concept of 'mothering' within a Haudenosaunee perspective does not have the same meaning as it does in other cultural contexts. Although one understanding of mothering is related to the literal meaning of biological reproduction, mothering also encompasses other roles, such as caring for all the children of one's clan, caring for the earth, and sharing responsibilities for the wellbeing of the community (Sunseri, 2011, p 72), Individual and collective resiliencies nurtured by these mothers of the nation included: language and cultural renewal, overcoming abusive relationships, self-reflection and ongoing healing, ending the cycle of abuse with their own children, reflecting on the healing interactions between their own children and grandparents (former attendees of Indian residential school) , choosing careers in the 'helping' professions or professions that were influential to their own personal healing, or assuming leadership positions within the community, and expressing concern to help community members break the cycle of dependency. </p>
The Relationship Between Intercourse Preference Positions and Personality Traits Among Gay Men in China
Authors: Zheng Lijun , Hart Trevor , Zheng Yong 
Published: March 2024

<p>Distinctions are commonly made regarding preferences for insertive or receptive anal intercourse within the gay male community. Three sexual self-labels are typically specified: “top,” meaning a man who prefers the insertive position, “bottom,” meaning a man who prefers the receptive position, and “versatile,” meaning a man willing to perform either position. The aim of this study was to examine personality differences among these three groups in gay men in China. We sampled 220 Internet-obtained Chinese gay men on instrumentality, expressiveness, gender-related interests, self-ascribed masculinity- femininity (Self-MF), and Big Five personality traits. Significant differences were found among sexual self-label groups in sexual behavior and in gendered traits and interests. Tops scored higher than the bottoms on instrumentality, gender-related interests, and self-ascribed masculinity-femininity (Self-MF) and bottoms scored higher than tops on expressiveness. Versatiles’ scores in gender-related traits were intermediate between that of tops and bottoms. There were no significant differences in Big Five traits among the three groups. Sexual self-labels appear not only to distinguish sexual behavior patterns but may also suggest gender role differences among Chinese gay men.</p>

<p> </p>
<p><strong>Background:</strong> Gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (gbMSM) experience disproportionate risks of HIV acquisition and transmission. In 2017, Montréal became the first Canadian Fast-Track City, setting the 2030 goal of zero new HIV infections. To inform local elimination efforts, we estimate the evolving role of prevention and sexual behaviours on HIV transmission dynamics among gbMSM in Montréal between 1975 and 2019.</p>
<p><strong>Methods:</strong> Data from local bio-behavioural surveys were analyzed to develop, parameterize, and calibrate an agent-based model of sexual HIV transmission. Partnership dynamics, HIV's natural history, and treatment and prevention strategies were considered. The model simulations were analyzed to estimate the fraction of HIV acquisitions and transmissions attributable to specific groups, with a focus on age, sexual partnering level, and gaps in the HIV care-continuum.</p>
<p><strong>Results:</strong> The model-estimated HIV incidence peaked in 1985 (2.3 per 100 person years (PY); 90% CrI: 1.4-2.9 per 100 PY) and decreased to 0.1 per 100 PY (90% CrI: 0.04-0.3 per 100 PY) in 2019. Between 2000-2017, the majority of HIV acquisitions and transmissions occurred among men aged 25-44 years, and men aged 35-44 thereafter. The unmet prevention needs of men with > 10 annual anal sex partners contributed 90-93% of transmissions and 67-73% of acquisitions annually. The primary stage of HIV played an increasing role over time, contributing to 11-22% of annual transmissions over 2000-2019. In 2019, approximately 70% of transmission events occurred from men who had discontinued, or never initiated antiretroviral therapy.</p>
<p><strong>Conclusions:</strong> The evolving HIV landscape has contributed to the declining HIV incidence among gbMSM in Montréal. The shifting dynamics identified in this study highlight the need for continued population-level surveillance to identify gaps in the HIV care continuum and core groups on which to prioritize elimination efforts.</p>
‘I was just doing what a normal gay man would do, right?’: The biopolitics of substance use and the mental health of sexual minority men

<p> </p>
<p>Drawing on 24 interviews conducted with gay, bisexual, queer and other men who have sex with men (GBM) living in Toronto, Canada, we examined how they are making sense of the relationship between their mental health and substance use. We draw from the literature on the biopolitics of substance use to document how GBM self-regulate and use alcohol and other drugs (AODC) as <em>technologies of the self</em>. Despite cultural understandings of substance use as integral to GBM communities and subjectivity, GBM can be ambivalent about their AODC. Participants discussed taking substances positively as a therapeutic mental health aid and negatively as being corrosive to their mental wellbeing. A fine line was communicated between substance use being self-productive or self-destructive. Some discussed having made ‘problematic’ or ‘unhealthy’ drug-taking decisions, while others presented themselves as self-controlled, responsible neoliberal actors doing ‘what a normal gay man would do’. This ambivalence is related to the polarizing binary community and scientific discourses on substances (i.e. addiction/healthy use, irrational/rational, uncontrolled/controlled). Our findings add to the critical drug literature by demonstrating how reifying and/or dismantling the coherency of such substance use binaries can serve as a biopolitical site for some GBM to construct their identities and demonstrate healthy, ‘responsible’ subjectivity.</p>

Published: March 2024

<p>Several international organizations promote health and well-being across Arctic countries and regions. A variety of monitoring programs and research networks collect and share a variety of health data. In recent years, Arctic health research is increasingly focusing on the health and well-being of Indigenous peoples of the North. This priority recognizes the major changes experienced by Indigenous peoples in terms of their living conditions. Indigenous people in some regions continue to suffer poorer health status compared to the majority populations of the Arctic nations and redressing such disparities requires the attention of policy makers and health service agencies. The increasing interest in the development of the Arctic has resulted in several initiatives, such as the Arctic Social Indicators project (ASI, 2010; ASI, 2014) and the first Arctic Human Development Report (AHDR, 2004). </p>

<p>Although youth participation is oft-acknowledged as underpinning mental health policy and service reform, little robust evidence exists about the participation of children and youth in mental health policymaking. A scoping review based on Arksey and O’Malley’s framework was conducted to identify and synthesize available information on children and youth’s participation in mental health policymaking. Published studies up to November 30, 2020 were searched in Medline (OVID), PsycINFO (OVID), Scopus, and Applied Social Sciences Index and Abstracts (PROQUEST). Further studies were identified through Google Scholar and a grey literature search was conducted using Google and targeted web searches from October to December, 2020. Three reviewers performed screening and data extraction relevant to the review objective, followed by an online consultation. From 2,981 records, 25 publications were included. A lack of diversity among the youth involved was found. Youth were often involved in situational analysis and policy design, but seldom in policy implementation and evaluation. Both the facilitators of and barriers to participation were multifaceted and interconnected. Despite a range of expected outcomes of participation for youth, adults, organizations, and communities, perceived and actual effects were neither substantially explored nor reported. Our recommendations for mental health policymaking highlight the inclusion of children and youth from diverse groups, and the creation of relational spaces that ensure safety, inclusiveness, and diversity. Identified future research directions are: the outcomes of youth participation in mental health policymaking, the role of adults, and more generally, how the mental health of children and youth shapes and is shaped by the policymaking process.</p>
‘Supervising children to be good people’: Parents and children's views of child supervision in Laos
Authors: Ruiz-Casares Monica , Phommavong Saithong , Park Sol , Douangphachanh Maliphone 
Published: March 2024

<p>Researchers have paid little attention to child supervision in Laos, an ethnically-diverse country with a community-informal child protection system, and where many young children are regularly home alone or with another child. To explore what constitutes (in)adequate child supervision and its perceived effects, we conducted individual interviews with community leaders and professionals (<em>n</em> = 23) and focus group discussions with parents/adult caregivers (<em>n</em> = 74) and 12–17 year-old children (<em>n</em> = 51) in six rural villages in Saravane and Borikhamxay provinces. Adults and children in both provinces described similar understandings and support systems of child supervision. Mothers are the main caregivers of young children, and literate fathers contribute to supervising school-age children. Grandparents, older siblings and other relatives, teachers, and village authorities contribute substantively to child supervision. The main aims of supervision are child safety, socialization and moral development in cultural context. Parental unavailability due to employment, farming and migration; limited infrastructure; and lack of material resources are the main barriers to adequate supervision and may result in injuries, school dropout, teenage pregnancy and illicit drug use. Understanding the determinants, consequences, and patterns of child supervision across cultural and socio-economic groups is needed to inform culturally acceptable strategies to support children and families.</p>
