<p>The continuous ongoing concern about shortages of healthcare workers in the healthcare industry in Malaysia has brought a significant impact on workforce productivity. The condition gets worsened during the COVID-19 pandemic back in 2020. Private healthcare has reported high staff turnover and caused higher costs to the business which in terms of direct financial losses and lack of continued care. The aims of this study are to identify the root causes of the high resignation rate in private healthcare. Five key factors (job satisfaction, work environment, compensation and benefits, work-life balance and employee recognition) were successfully identified and measured as significant contributors towards employee retention of selected private healthcare in Malaysia. A quantitative study was conducted via survey for obtaining primary data and information needed. There were 123 respondents and data were collected from the selected private hospitals in Sarawak, Malaysia. Based on rigorous reviewing of the literature, instrument designing and subsequent pilot testing, the study identified six (6) hypotheses which are tested using statistical technique SPSS version 26. The outcome revealed that employee recognition, with the unstandardized coefficients Beta value of 0.359 followed by job satisfaction with a Beta value of 0.295 was a supported and stronger predictor in influencing employees’ retention in the private hospitals. Other determinants like working environment, compensation and benefits and work-life balance were not strongly supported however been highlighted by respondents as important factors too. Moreover, some unique factors like training and development, fairness, leadership skills among leaders or managers and hospital facilities and equipment were highlighted by respondents in this study and these factors are regarded as crucial for getting management attention in retaining the talents in the hospitals. This study also contributes both theoretical and empirical value to private healthcare in retaining talent through building trust in their employees and having immense credibility of leaders with a long-term win-win employee relationship.</p><p> </p><p>JEL: E24; J24; I10</p><p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0917/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>
COMPLAINT STRATEGIES AND FORMULAS IN CAMEROON FRENCH: A CASE STUDY
Authors: Farenkia Bernard Mulo 
Published: March 2022

The present study examines the realization of complaints by Cameroonian French speakers. The data were collected, by means of discourse completion tasks (DCT) that was administered to 228 participants in Yaoundé and Douala, Cameroon. The examples were analyzed according to the following aspects: head act strategies (direct and indirect complaints) and external modifiers. With respect to head act strategies, the results show that the informants mostly preferred direct complaints in the form of expressions of disapproval and accusations, and indirect complaints in the form of expressions of disbelief and requests for repair. It was also found that the participants mostly used complex complaint utterances with a wide variety of pragmatic strategies and linguistic realizations. The analysis also reveals that the participants employed different types of external modifiers to soften or aggravate their complaints. These include preparatory acts such as exclamations, attention getters, address terms, etc., and supportive acts such as expressions of regrets, insistence acts, sarcasm, suggestions, etc. The strategies and formulas attested in the data seem to reflect the way in which Cameroon French speakers voice complaints in naturally occurring situations involving peer equality.<p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0917/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>

Authors: Juezan Gideon I. , Osorno Rodolfo II M. 
Published: March 2022

The study endeavored to recognize the moderating effect of friendship quality between sports performance anxiety and sports confidence of varsity athletes in state colleges in Davao del Sur and Davao Occidental. A non-experimental quantitative research design was used, utilizing descriptive, correlational and causative designs and data were taken from N=119 college athletes who were asked to respond on questionnaires online. In the analysis of the data, weighted mean, Pearson r, mod graph via linear regression were used. Results revealed that sports performance anxiety has a significant relationship with sports confidence and friendship quality significantly related to sports confidence. However, sports performance anxiety does not significantly correlate with friendship quality. Linear regression analysis found out that while sports performance anxiety and friendship quality significantly influence sport confidence among athletes, sports performance anxiety does not significantly influence friendship quality among athletes. Finally, while no moderating effect was noted on friendship quality, regressing it in combination with sports performance anxiety posed a significant influence on the confidence of athletes.<p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0975/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>
ELECTRONIC VOTING AS AN INSTRUMENT FOR FREE, FAIR AND CREDIBLE ELECTIONS IN NIGERIAN POLITICAL SYSTEM: ISSUES AND CHALLENGES
Authors: Umar Hassan Sa’id , Atte John , Haruna Sule 
Published: March 2022

Electoral management is one of the recurrent discussions in emerging democracies across the globe. Issues of electoral fraud are most times predicated on the nature of electoral management since most elections in the affected countries are done manually. Improving on the electoral management has therefore become a focus of concern that the Nigerian state also aligned itself with in order to better its course of the democratic enterprise. Automation of electoral processes from the manual practice is primarily to address noticeable negativities associated with the manual system. This paper is an explanatory one that seeks to analyze the incentives, setbacks and challenges of the electronic voting system. The paper utilized secondary sources through careful analysis of literature on the subject matter in addition to personal observations and discussions among intellectual colleagues. The incentives of E-voting include but are not limited to reduction of electoral fraud, delays, manipulations of results and other irregularities including cost. The paper also maintains that the e-voting system has its own drawbacks in the forms of IT logistics, infrastructure, lack of trust, issues of transparency among other challenges. It concludes that there should be a pilot test at the micro level for an experiment before adopting on a large-scale national election, networking of government agencies to be fully IT compliant, inter alia.<p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0988/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>

Authors: Katsora Konstantina , Kaprinis Stylianos , Strigas Athanasios 
Published: March 2022

The present study explores the correlation between the special educator’s emotional literacy/ emotional intelligence and their self-efficacy regarding the empowerment and social inclusion of students with disability. The study examines a main sample of 114 special educators working in the Greek education system. The main research hypothesis is centered around the interrelationship between the two key notions while incorporating copious variables such as age, gender, education and teaching experience to thoroughly examine all aspects. The academic tools utilized within this research include the Schutte (1999) Self-Report Emotional Intelligence Test and the Teaching Students with Disabilities Efficacy Scale-TSDES (Dawson and Scott, 2013). The SPSS statistical package has been used to process the data regarding the descriptive and inductive statistical procedures that have been applied. In the end, it appears that emotional intelligence and the sense of self-efficacy of the special education teachers are inextricably linked as the increase in Emotional Intelligence also implies an increase in Self-Efficacy. In addition, with regard to the relations among the variables, it is noted that education is directly related to the level of Emotional Intelligence as PhD holders performed higher than holders of a Master's or Bachelor’s degree. With regard to the participants’ years of Experience, participants with 6-10 years of service had statistically significant superiority over other groups in terms of Emotional Intelligence. Overall, no statistically significant differences between the genders were found with the exception of the Professionalism and Instruction indicators in Self-Efficacy.<p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0922/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>

<p>L’exercice d’activité constitue une préoccupation existentielle pour l’homme depuis que l’homo economicus a suscité la curiosité scientifique des savants pour montrer la rationalité sous-jacente aux comportements humains pour la satisfaction des besoins vitaux. Les économistes classiques voient dans le travail le seul facteur de production de richesses. De ce fait, le discours économique a commencé par alimenter sérieusement la logique des activités des hommes dans un contexte où la création de richesses devient l’ultime solution des maux dont souffre l’humanité. Partant, le travail prend une valeur centrale et incommensurable dans la pensée économique conduisant l’homme à reposer fondamentalement son existence sur l’exercice d’un métier. Or, au plan social et humain, le travail revêt une importance capitale à travers la socialisation et l’intégration sociale du travailleur.

Twindemic - An emerging concern in Pakistan
Authors: Akhtar Sareema Eman , Saad Shakil  , Azhar Chachar  
Published: March 2022

Dear Madam,
As winter approaches, people succumb to a myriad of winter illnesses. Seasonal Influenza (Flu) is predominantly prevalent in the USA and Pakistan. CDC reported 20,000 deaths and 380,000 hospitalizations from flu in 2019 till 2020(1). According to Dr Ebell, we are likely less immune, since we are not exposed to flu for twenty months or even more. There is uncertainty regarding flu strains since it can undergo antigenic shifts and antigenic drift that can cause the evolution of new strains (2). Therefore, CDC estimates that approximately seven hundred thousand people would get hospitalized in the upcoming flu-season (3).
Flu season paired with covid-19 classically presents as “Twindemic”. Although influenza (Flu) and Covid share similar clinical symptoms, both can have severe, mild or moderate effects, mode of transmission and preventive strategies, but they still differ in their treatment modalities and vaccines. Therefore, during the covid era it has become challenging to report influenza cases as both diseases present with similar symptoms making clinical diagnosis difficult. However, some studies suggest that preventive measures used for Covid were also effective against the prevention of flu. Hence, the number of flu cases were reported to be lower than expected for the year 2020-2021. People infected with Covid and Influenza at the same time, are more prone to develop severe illness. To keep the pressure off healthcare systems, vaccination programmes are imperative. CDC has issued new guidelines for this potential twindemic this winter, stating that flu vaccines must protect against all 4 influenza virus strains that were noy t the recommendation in prior years. However, in Pakistan Flu shots are not prioritized. Even though CDC recommends a flu shot annually, there is no national influenza vaccination policy in Pakistan. Low levels of vaccination are due to little knowledge regarding the importance of influenza prevention, misinformation about its side effects and lack of public awareness (4), due to which the death toll of influenza was reported to be 42.03 per 100,000 of population as per 2018 data (5).
Despite the serious health and economic consequences faced due to influenza, vaccination rates remain low. Pakistan Government must play a pivotal role to include influenza vaccination in its EPI schedule in order to make it available for the citizens at low costs. The risk of co-infection is estimated to be higher as the season changes.

Fostering the need of HPV Vaccination Programmes in Pakistan
Authors: Sareema Eman Akhtar  , Saad Shakil  
Published: March 2022

Madam,
In Pakistan's female population of 112 million (1) , Human Papillomavirus (HPV) has caused devastating results of cervical cancer in females aged fifteen years and older. Being the second most common cancer in females aged fifteen to forty-four years and third most common cancer amongst females, current statistics estimate 5000 victims and 3000 deaths annually due to HPV. (2)(3). This is becoming a huge burden and needs to be acknowledged.
HPV, a circular double-stranded DNA virus, is a common infection of the reproductive tract. Worldwide accepted strategies to reduce the burden of this deadly virus is through vaccines and screening. Due to the uneven distribution of this lethal virus. there are currently three vaccines available that were approved by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) back in 2006, 2009 and 2014, namely Gardasil, Cervarix, and Gardasil-9, respectively(4). CDC has endorsed the need for two doses of the vaccine. At the age of 11-12, The first dose can also be given at 9 years followed by a second dose with an interval of 6-12 months (5). However, in a developing country like Pakistan, HPV vaccination programmes are still a challenge due to lack of awareness amongst the population and inconsistent efforts by the healthcare system in providing the screening and vaccination strategies. Many other factors are related with this gross burden: the availability of the vaccines, insufficient funds and various collateral factors associated with the spread of rumours through social media. A study recently proved the strength of vaccination at a young age. It concluded that females’ inoculation at the age of 12 to 13 years significantly reduced the risk of grade 3 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) (6). Centres for disease and control and prevention (CDC) has stated that the majority of the people who are unvaccinated and sexually active will get HPV during their lives. Therefore, there is an essential need to vaccinate children below the age of fifteen years so that 33,000 of these cancers can be prevented that are caused by this infection.
Since, cervical cancer is a public health problem, a global strategy for its elimination was inaugurated in 2020 by WHO. Despite the worldwide challenges, WHO did not take a step back and continued its challenging efforts. However, situation in Pakistan did not improve.
