The Mediating Role of Institutional Quality on the Nexus between Oil Price Fluctuations and Current Account Deficits in Nigeria: A nonlinear ARDL Approach
Authors: Quadri Faruq Umar 
Published: November 2023

The paper employs a NARDL to analyze the degree of asymmetry in the relationship between current account and oil price, with a mediating effect of the institutional role in Nigeria. The series employed in the study are obtained largely from the database of World Bank’s (WDI), and covers 1981 to 2021. In conclusions, we found that any form of shocks in oil price and nominal exchange rate exert significant impact on the country’s current account balances both in the short run and long run in Nigeria. In addition, poor institutional quality in the oil industry such as corruption, poor regulatory frameworks, hinders the country from fully optimizing the benefits associated with increasing global oil prices. Finally, a long run asymmetry is discovered in the nexus of current account-oil price with mediating role of institutions in Nigeria. Thus, we recommend that the PIA should be implemented carefully and strategically in an effort to remove all undue bottlenecks and bureaucracies to support Nigeria's economic growth through attracting in and providing investment possibilities for both domestic and international investors, and thereby enhances the current account balance.

A Literature Review on Results-Based Management (RBM) in the Not-for-Profit Sector in Zimbabwe during and after the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Mushayi Wellington , Qutieshat Abubaker 
Published: November 2023

In the context of the just-ended COVID-19 global pandemic, it is evident that nations continue battling to make progress towards the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals Agenda while ensuring no one is left behind. Renowned journals have captured the adverse impacts of the pandemic on the social, health, education, and economic systems across nations, including Zimbabwe, highlighting the need for more efficient and effective management practices. Notwithstanding, there remains little or no evidence on the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic on the implementation of widely adopted approaches such as results-based management (RBM). This is despite RBM having been adopted by a majority of governments and non-governmental organizations, including the United Nations, and implemented as a performance management tool towards attaining the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. RBM is a strategic approach that focuses on achieving specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound results to enhance the effectiveness and accountability of organisations. This review explores the implementation of RBM in the not-for-profit sector in Zimbabwe during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. It examines the challenges faced by the sector, the opportunities presented by RBM, and the strategies and best practises for successful implementation post-pandemic. The study synthesises and critically analyses relevant literature, providing insights into RBM's potential to improve the performance and impact of not-for-profit organisations in Zimbabwe.

Assessing the Effects of Teachers Qualification on Students Academic Performance in Private Secondary Schools in the South Eastern Nigeria
Authors: Onuegbu Francis E. 
Published: November 2023

Ensuring high-quality teaching is vital for positive student learning experiences and achievement outcomes. This study investigated the effects of teachers’ qualification on students’ academic performance in private secondary schools in Southeastern Nigeria. Through a thoughtfully designed survey, over 515 respondents from 187 schools shared insights into their daily educational realities. Their responses revealed generally qualified teaching staff dedicated to covering subjects comprehensively. However, some specialized areas needed more depth, potentially hindering modern curriculum demands. The analysis uncovered largely positive yet complex qualification dynamics. Higher teacher numbers correlated with broader competencies, benefiting coverage. Formal training is strongly associated with examination success, highlighting qualifications' value. Yet continuous skills growth matters as needs evolve. These honest respondents' voices prompt thoughtful reflection. While standards currently meet minimums, achieving excellence requires collaborative progress. Targeted support could strengthen specialized expertise within small classes. Incentivizing expansion motivates continuous learning curves. Partnering with educators and communities cultivates locally tailored growth. Monitoring disparities prompts equitable support. This humble work invites an understanding how qualifications interconnect with private secondary school students' performance, championing each Student's potential. Through open minds and caring hands, we may clear pathways for all hearts and minds to blossom.

Published: November 2023

Abstract
We present three new brown dwarf spectral-binary candidates: CWISE J072708.09−360729.2, CWISE J103604.84−514424.4, and CWISE J134446.62−732053.9, discovered by citizen scientists through the Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 project. Follow-up near-infrared spectroscopy shows that each of these objects is poorly fit by a single near-infrared standard. We constructed binary templates and found significantly better fits, with component types of L7+T4 for CWISE J072708.09−360729.2, L7+T4 for CWISE J103604.84−514424.4, and L7+T7 for CWISE J134446.62−732053.9. However, further investigation of available spectroscopic indices for evidence of binarity and large amplitude variability suggests that CWISE J072708.09−360729.2 may instead be a strong variability candidate. Our analysis offers tentative evidence and characterization of these peculiar brown dwarf sources, emphasizing their value as promising targets for future high-resolution imaging or photometric variability studies.
Properties Underlying the Variation of the Magnetic Field Spectral Index in the Inner Solar Wind
Authors: McIntyre J. R. , Chen C. H. K. , Larosa A. 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Using data from orbits 1−11 of the Parker Solar Probe mission, the magnetic field spectral index was measured across a range of heliocentric distances. The previously observed transition between a value of −5/3 far from the Sun and a value of −3/2 close to the Sun was recovered, with the transition occurring at around 50 R
⊙ and the index saturating at −3/2 as the Sun is approached. A statistical analysis was performed to separate the variation of the index on distance from its dependence on other parameters of the solar wind that are plausibly responsible for the transition, including the cross helicity, residual energy, turbulence age, and magnitude of magnetic fluctuations. Of all parameters considered, the cross helicity was found to be by far the strongest candidate for the underlying variable responsible. The velocity spectral index was also measured and found to be consistent with −3/2 over the range of values of cross helicity measured. Possible explanations for the behavior of the indices are discussed, including the theorized different behavior of imbalanced, compared to balanced, turbulence.
The Relationship Between Psychosocial Factors and Student Success in Athletic Training Students
Authors: Clason Brittany A. , Yukhymenko-Lescroart Mariya A. , Sailor Scott R. , Wandeler Christian 
Published: November 2023

Context
Many athletic training programs are not meeting accreditation standards involving measures of student success, causing programs to be noncompliant with these standards and showing current and prospective students that their program may not prepare them for a successful career. Studies have shown that psychosocial factors, including psychological needs and measures of student motivation, may be related to student success.

Objective
To examine the relationships between psychological needs (autonomy, competence, and relatedness), measures of student motivation (controlled and autonomous motivation, self-efficacy, and academic and athletic trainer identity), and measures of student success (persistence, intention to leave, perceived academic performance, and grade point average [GPA]) in athletic training students.

Design
Cross-sectional.

Setting
Entry-level master’s athletic training programs.

Patients or Other Participants
Ninety-seven current entry-level master’s athletic training students who held a noncertified student National Athletic Trainers’ Association membership in 2020.

Data Collection and Analysis
Responses to surveys were estimated using a path model, in which 4 measures of student success were specified to be predicted by psychological needs directly and indirectly through measures of student motivation.

Results
Persistence was positively predicted by autonomy and autonomous motivation. Intention to leave was positively predicted by controlled motivation. Perceived academic performance was positively predicted by competence and autonomous motivation. Finally, GPA was predicted positively by academic identity and negatively by athletic trainer identity. Findings also showed an indirect relationship between competence and GPA through academic identity. Overall, findings showed that autonomy, competence, autonomous motivation, and academic identity were important predictors of student success.

Conclusion(s)
Athletic training students should be provided opportunities to practice athletic training skills and knowledge and to make choices regarding patient care in real-life situations and regarding their learning environment. These opportunities for independence may result in greater autonomy, competence, autonomous motivation, and academic identity, and, in turn, greater student success.

Published: November 2023

ABSTRACT.
We report 26 cases of eye injuries resulting from cobra venom sprayed by Naja atra. This accounts for 14.5% of patients (26/173) treated for cobra injuries who presented to the emergency department of a snakebite treatment center in Guangzhou, South China. Pain, blurred vision, lacrimation, photophobia, and foreign body sensation were the most common symptoms, found in 24 patients. Ophthalmic examination revealed eyelid swelling and conjunctival congestion. Eye slit lamp examination showed obvious punctate corneal epithelial defects in four patients. Five patients received an intravenous infusion of antivenom. All patients’ eyes were rinsed completely with normal saline after their arrival at the hospital. Prophylactic topical antibiotics were given to all patients. All eyes were cured without long-term sequelae.
