No College Students Left Behind: Writing Module Incorporating Critical Thinking Skills for the National Postgraduate Entrance Examination in China
Authors: Jiangang Lyu , Eng Lin Siew 
Published: January 2024

In recent years, Chinese universities and scholars have recognised the significance of critical thinking. Despite this growing awareness, integrating critical thinking skills into the curriculum remains a challenge in China. To gain entry to postgraduate programmes, students majoring in management in the country are required to take a National Postgraduate Entrance Examination (NPEE) that emphasises logical knowledge related to critical thinking and writing. Hence, this study aims to develop a writing module that incorporates critical thinking skills for college students in China. To achieve this, a mixed methods approach was employed. Firstly, a prototype writing module was created using the Analyse, Design, Develop, Implement and Evaluate (ADDIE) Model and verified by content experts for content validity. Subsequently, the module was implemented in a traditional classroom setting. For the pilot study, a pilot sample of 50 students was randomly chosen from a training centre in China that assists college students to prepare for the examination. For the next stage, 100 students were selected as the study sample. After implementing the writing module, both quantitative and qualitative analysis were conducted. The results indicated a significant improvement in participants' scores in the pre-test and post-test, demonstrating the effectiveness of the writing module in fostering critical thinking skills. The writing module developed by the researchers will have a profound effect on Chinese teachers' teaching in the future. It will provide them with clear instructional materials to cultivate Chinese students' critical thinking abilities, ensuring that no college students will be left behind.

Interrelation between Character Accentuations and Defense Mechanisms in University Students
Authors: Panteleeva Olga 
Published: January 2024

This article aims to study possible relationships between character accentuations and psychological defense mechanisms in university students. The Leonhard–Shmishek test questionnaire “Personality Accentuations” and the Plutchik–Kellerman–Conte questionnaire “Life Style Index” were used. The results were analyzed using correlation, for which the Spearman r-coefficient was used. The significance of differences between the groups was calculated using the Kruskal–Wallis H-test, and a comparative analysis of the indicator percentages was also conducted. It was found that hyperthymic, emotive, and exalted accentuations prevailed among the students surveyed. Furthermore, it was concluded that students with hyperthymic accentuation tend to use the denial defense mechanism; rationalization is inherent in students with emotive accentuation, and substitution is inherent in students with exalted accentuation. The data obtained allow for the following conclusion: the characteristic features of accentuations can influence the choice and use of certain defense mechanisms. The research results expand the possibilities in psychological and pedagogical work at the university to help students who have difficulty adapting, in academic performance, and in self-determination.

Convergent and Discriminant Validity of the Bafadal`s Leadership Morality Questionnaire in Indonesian Context
Authors: Bafadal Ibrahim , Atmoko Adi , Sunandar Asep , Arjanto Paul , Da Conceição Soares Maria Imaculada 
Published: January 2024

Objective: This study aims to address the lack of quantitative, culturally contextualized measures for evaluating moral leadership in Indonesian primary schools. The objectives are threefold: 1) to assess the convergent validity of Bafadal's Leadership Morality Questionnaire (BLMQ) within the Indonesian educational setting; 2) to evaluate the discriminant validity of the BLMQ; and 3) to derive actionable insights for administrators and policymakers based on the findings. Method: A quantitative survey-based approach was employed, gathering data from 362 prospective school principals in East Java, Indonesia. A series of scales including the BLMQ, Moral Foundations Questionnaire (MFQ), Moral Competency Inventory (MCI), Self-Esteem Scale (SES), and Locus of Control (LoC) were administered. Results: The study revealed significant positive correlations between the BLMQ and other moral metrics such as the MFQ and MCI, suggesting convergent validity. On the other hand, low and non-significant correlations were found between the BLMQ and scales like the SES and LoC, which suggests discriminant validity. Notably, the correlation between the BLMQ and MCI was not statistically significant. Conclusion: The BLMQ demonstrates both convergent and discriminant validity, as it aligns closely with other moral metrics like the MFQ but not with unrelated scales like the SES and LoC. However, the non-significant correlation between the BLMQ and MCI suggests that these two instruments may be capturing different facets of moral competency.

Authors: Carcausto-Calla Wilfredo , Cucho Leyva María Patricia , Villena Guerrero Mirella Patricia , Zapata Noel Alcas , Alza-Salvatierra María Soledad 
Published: January 2024

The objective of the study was to analyze the role of mothers in preschool education before and after the pandemic. The design used was descriptive-comparative with a qualitative approach. Nine mothers of preschool children from two public educational institutions in Lima-Peru participated. The verbal data was collected through in-depth interviews. Four subcategories were found: support in homework, support in learning activities, expectations and concerns, needs in terms of resources and forms of communication. In conclusion, before the pandemic, education was primarily teacher-centered. Currently, due to the lack of psychomotor, socioemotional, and communicative development caused by the pandemic, mothers are more involved and understand that the roles of parents and teachers are shared to ensure children's learning.

Board Composition and Cash Hoarding: Evidence from Jordanian Small- and Medium-Sized Enterprises
Authors: Hassan Dana , Iskandrani Majd , Yaseen Hadeel , AlMaharmeh Mohammad 
Published: January 2024

This study examines the influence of board composition on cash hoarding in Jordan. Based on a sample of 24 small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) between 2010 and 2020, the results show that board size has a positive impact on cash hoarding, whereas board independence has a significant negative influence on cash hoarding. Importantly, we note that cash hoarding is not affected by either chief executive officer (CEO) duality or female directors, contradicting the idea that women are risk-averse when making financing decisions. Regarding the other explanatory variables, the results reveal that firm size and operational risk have a significant and negative effect on cash hoarding, whereas growth opportunities have a positive and significant impact on cash hoarding. Finally, cash hoarding is not affected by cash flows. The results remain robust after addressing the endogeneity problem, and they enrich the literature with new evidence of the influence of female directors on cash hoarding in Jordan, where female board representation is low. Furthermore, the results provide evidence of the role of CEO duality on boards of directors, an issue that regulatory bodies in Jordan should consider when planning future governance reforms. Subjects: Quantitative finance, corporate finance, business, management, and accounting.

Published: January 2024

Scientific research is essential for university teachers and the university in general, since its main objective is to generate and disseminate knowledge. The objective of this study was to examine the factors that influence the attitudes of university lecturers in Peru towards scientific research. The study employed a quantitative methodology, focusing on an explanatory-predictive framework. A 28-item questionnaire related to university teachers' attitudes towards research was applied, with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.9 reliability. The sample included the participation of 405 university teachers from different regions of Peru with 1 to 30 years of professional experience. Non-parametric analysis of variance (ANOVA) statistical techniques were applied for data processing. The results showed that the factors analysed (sex, years of experience, and region of origin) predicted the behavioural and cognitive dimensions but not the affective dimension. Teachers from the northern part of the country and Lima have prevalence in the behavioural and cognitive dimensions, and most teachers have a high level in the behavioural and cognitive dimensions but a low level in the affective dimension. The results are consistent with previous studies showing that attitudes towards research are influenced by factors such as age, research subject, participation in research activities, and social capital.

Published: January 2024

Thesis writing during undergraduate studies is one of the most important undergraduate achievements given that students receive their degrees based on this work. Therefore, the objective of our research was to characterize different thesis writing factors in a public university. We used a mixed-methods approach that included a questionnaire and interview questions. The population was 448 students and the final sample included 208 students from the Faculty of Education at a large state university in Peru. For the questionnaire, Cronbach’s Alpha showed a reliability of 0.80. Meanwhile the construct reliability was measured with the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) measure of sampling adequacy and was 0.74. Results showed that perceptions about thesis writing factors were medium (40.4%). Regarding personal factors showed a medium level of 44.2%, and students indicated that they had little time to elaborate their theses mostly because of work. Academic factors showed a medium level of 38.9%, and students manifested that they apply what they have learned in research courses, that their one-on-one consulting has been effective, and that they have good knowledge of APA, writing skills and use of Mendeley or Zotero. Finally, institutional factors were medium at 39.3%, and students expressed that although institutional standards do exist for thesis writing, they lack adequate diffusion. Also, students mentioned courses given by the library, among other factors.

Published: January 2024

The aim of this study is to examine the current state of the Validation of Formal, Non-Formal and Informal Learning (VFNIL) system in the Republic of Kosovo and critically assess institutional policies for the establishment of an effective VFNIL system at the national level. In achieving the research objective, structured interviews with key representatives of central and local Vocational Education and Training (VET) institutions are conducted and key policy documents are analyzed. The study discovers that the Validation of Formal, Non-Formal and Informal Learning (VFNIL) system is in progress of development in the VET sector only and is at its infancy stage. Building on the best practices of more developed countries, relevant legal provisions and operational tools for the provision of VNFIL services have been developed and six institutions have been accredited, but the services have not yet been delivered to candidates. The complexity of the accreditation system, rigid and bureaucratic administrative requirements and financial implications associated with the accreditation process of institutions and with the enrolment process of candidates have been identified as the main obstacles for the operational arrangements of an effective VNFIL system. The study contributes to the advancement of the understanding and the significance of validation of skills through the VNFIL services and advocates for the need to establish a robust and sustainable VNFIL system in line with European practices.

Authors: Olasehinde Ireti Olamide , Afolabi Olusesan Samuel 
Published: January 2024

This study examined the relationship between external debts and economic growth for sustainable capacity building in Nigeria, using annual time series data spanning from 1981 to 2022. Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) Bound technique, ARDL cointegration form and Granger causality were employed for the research analysis. The results of the study confirmed that there was evidence of long-run relationship among the variables employed in Nigerian economy. The study discovered that only foreign reserves (FRES) has positive and significant long-run impacts on economic growth (GDP). The results showed that none of the variables has significant short-run impacts on Nigerian economy growth. The Granger causality revealed that it is external debt and interest rate that granger caused economic growth (GDP), while (GDP) granger caused only openness of trade. A bidirectional causality was established between openness of trade and economic growth within the period of study. Based on the research findings, the study recommends that government should discontinue from taking unproductive loans and bonds in order to reduce excessive debt servicing in order to sustain capacity building at all levels and to encourage trade openness to boost internal and external trade in order to enhance sustainable growth and development of the country.

Published: January 2024

Cybercrime has been a major global criminological challenge in recent years. Regarded as one of the epicenters of international Internet fraud, Nigeria is gaining notoriety as a cybercrime hotbed. With the continuing advancement in technological innovations and the growth of terrorism in Nigeria, cyberattacks are also a continuing threat. Efforts to tackle the threat of cybercrime have mainly been ineffective. Even though the Nigerian government has introduced measures to tackle the danger posed by cybercrime to economic and social growth, the piecemeal approach it has used in the past has yielded no tangible results. In this paper, we argue that cybercrime cannot be confronted by the Nigerian government alone without a comprehensive, holistic approach, including international cooperation. We examined the various strategies employed by the Nigerian government to curb cybercrime and why cyber criminality has been a malignant tumor that has refused to subside. We also outline some policy measures and recommendations

Published: January 2024

Background: Bedroom lighting is accused of being one of the factors causing changes in the quality of sleep in the elderly. Modifying the power of room lighting is an alternative to improving the sleep quality of the elderly. The aim of the study is to determine the effect of lighting intensity on the sleep quality of elderly.
Methods: A quantitative study with a quasi-experimental control group design. Amount of sample is 40 responden and choosen used random sampling. Quality of sleep measure by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and light-intensity measure used a luxmeter. the intervention group received lights with an intensity of 5, 10, 15, 20 watts, where the respondents were treated every day for 4 days with these light intensities. The Shapiro-Wilk test was used to test the normality of the data, while paired T test used to analyze the conditions before and after in the control and treatment groups. Independent sample t-test used to compare the sleep quality of the control and treatment groups.
Results: There was no difference in sleep quality in the control group (0.15) between before and after the study, but there was a difference in sleep quality in the intervention group (0.00). There were differences in sleep quality between the control and treatment groups after the intervention was given (0.01).
Conclusion: The intensity of the light has an effect on the sleep quality of the elderly, where the lower the intensity of the light, the better the quality of sleep. Elderly should sleep on level lighting intensity less than 5 watt.

Published: January 2024

Background: Prevention of heart and cardiovascular disease must be carried out as early as possible with routine biochemical examinations. Aim of this study is to describe the profile of Cholesterol, Blood Glucose and Hemogobin in urban adolescents.
Methods: This research method uses a descriptive design with a cross sectional approach. The sample population in this study was 63 nursing students at the Surakarta Health Polytechnic. The study was conducted in August 2023 and the sample was selected randomly. Data were analyzed descriptively.
Results: The average cholesterol level was 197mg/dl, the average blood sugar level was 91.1 mg/dl and the average hemoglobin was 13.2 g/dl.
Conclusion: The incidence of hypercholesterolemia was high in respondents. This condition is possible due to insufficient consumption of vegetables and lack of physical activity resulting in high cholesterol levels. These specific findings can help create policies to develop more strategic evidence-based interventions, through grouping risk factors in controlling the risk of non-communicable diseases in adolescents.
