In Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) region, there has been an increase in alcohol consumption during the COVID-19 pandemic period. The institution of lockdowns and consequent alcohol misuse has been associated with economic challenges and worsening psychosocial conditions. Stress-inducing changes in interpersonal, financial, and broader social dynamics have resulted in increased reports of depression, interpersonal abuse, aggressive behaviours, anxiety, and even suicidality, leading those affected to more frequent and more heavy alcohol use as a coping mechanism. This review focused on trends of alcohol use during the pandemic in Grenada, and it also explored the economic and psychosocial factors that contributed to adverse outcomes of alcohol use. In response to the destructive coping strategies associated with deteriorating mental health, the paper also proposed vigorous policy changes to mitigate the ongoing misuse of alcohol, particularly during future crises. Library databases, webpages of various governments and international agencies, and peer-reviewed journal sources were searched for data on global alcohol consumption during the 2020-2021 COVID-19 lockdown periods, focusing on Grenada. A total of 64 sources published between 1979-2021 were included based on their relevance. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of building resilient public health systems and addressing public health concerns such as excessive alcohol consumption.

Moroccan business leaders are increasingly concerned about the phenomenon of declining commercial activity, confirmed by the economic barometers published by the General Confederation of Moroccan Enterprises (CGEM) during the last four years (2015-2018), and the direct causes that might be linked to unfair competition, payment delays problem, unpaid debts and finally the widespread of a heavy informal sector. Through this article, we are going to focus on the relationship that may exist between the components of an internal control system setup in a sales function and its performance. In other words, we are looking to explain the decreasing performance of the sales function using the evaluation of the internal control system deployed there. To do this, we will present in the first part, the theoretical foundations of the internal control system and socio-economic performance. Then, we will analyze the points of connection and influence to finally develop some hypotheses, which will be the subject of an empirical study based on of one hundred and sixty-one Moroccan companies. The results of our work provide an answer on the degree of influence of internal control system components of the commercial function on its socio-economic performance and more precisely on its commercial performance.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, all activities are carried out online. One of them is the provision of information on Family Planning and Reproductive Health which must be provided to supervise family planning acceptors so that they do not experience discontinuation of contraceptive use. This study aimed to evaluate the provision of information on Family Planning and Reproductive Health provided online to the public. This study used a One-Shot Case Study design. The intervention given was the provision of contraceptive information through the WhatsApp group. The research sample was married women aged 15-49 years who used the pill and injection contraception in Lebak District. The number of samples in this study was 94 respondents. In this study, about 11% of married women stated that they had difficulty accessing contraceptive services during the COVID-19 pandemic. After being given information on Family Planning and Reproductive Health through WhatsApp groups, 66% of respondents stated that the intervention provided increased knowledge about contraception, 18% complained about the use of quotas, 6.4% stated that they could not understand because they were used to face-to-face. This study also explored information about suggestions for contraceptive service programs, namely 14.9% expects services and providing information on Family Planning and Reproductive Health to be carried out face-to-face and 12.8% recommended free contraceptive services. Conclusion. Providing information on Family Planning and Reproductive Health online is an alternative during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, during contraceptive services, health workers still directly provide information as needed. Information on payment for contraceptive services using health social security agency must be provided to acceptors and contraceptive service activities funded by the national family planning coordinating board must also be informed to increase the coverage of contraceptive use.

This study aimed to determine the entrepreneurial strategy of village housewives in the Donggala district from the perspective of Islamic economics. The research was conducted using qualitative methods, and data collection was carried out through observation and in-depth interviews with several housewives who are entrepreneurial. Data analysis techniques used are data reduction, data presentation, and data verification. The results showed that the entrepreneurial strategy carried out by housewives in Donggala Regency was by changing the menu and adding products according to the wishes and needs of buyers. The products price prioritizes the social aspect, namely by not taking much profit. Places, where products are sold, are marketed directly to buyers, such as selling in front of the house or to markets close to the local community. However, some products are also sold indirectly, namely by entrusting their products to kiosks. Meanwhile, promotion is done by selling directly and through social media (Facebook). Judging from the Islamic economy, the entrepreneurial strategy carried out by housewives is more focused on trading with Islamic ethics that is halal and beneficial and does not make much profit. Entrepreneurial mothers also always keep their business premises clean and promote products that can be accounted for. The entrepreneurial strategy of housewives is also carried out by paying attention to the nature of shiddiq or being honest in trading by not increasing or decreasing the size of the product. Then the women traders also behave in a trustworthy manner in serving buyers and fathanah with mutual respect between family members, employees, and buyers. Submission of information about the product is also carried out with tabligh or product promotion carried out honestly and correctly.

Beekeeping in Uttarakhand is one of the oldest traditional practices followed both for the commercial purpose as well as the domestic use. It is an important supplementary income generating activity in the state. According to the experts, there is a need to adopt modern beekeeping practices by the traditional beekeepers in the state, especially in the areas like bee management, better extraction, honey storage and quality control. Honey bee farming is now a days becoming more popular due to its market demand in national as well as the international market. The farmers not only obtain economic benefits but beekeeping also helps the farmers increase the agricultural productivity through pollination. Uttarakhand has huge potential for beekeeping due to plenty of flora and suitability of climate but the farmers still depend on the traditional practices resulting in the low yield of honey produce both in terms of quality and quantity. Hence, there is a huge scope of adoption of advanced scientific practices in the state of Uttarakhand that can add to the farmers income in the state. ”Mountain farmers in Uttarakhand are facing extreme difficulties in meeting their basic needs because of meager opportunities to engage youth in respectable employment. The paper suggests that the Uttarakhand has tremendous scope for commercial beekeeping and use of bee for pollination of diversity agri-horticultural crops and wild flora. Also, the paper emphasizes on the constraints for beekeeping development and strategies for organic honey production in Mountain hill of Uttarakhand.

Self-Directed Learning (SDL) is a process in which the learner takes self-initiation for assessing own learning needs and work accordingly with the help of available resources for achievement of required learning, The objective of this study is to identify the readiness for self-directed learning among the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) students. A descriptive cross sectional study was conducted among BSN students of Yeti Health Science Academy and Kantipur Academy of Health Science, Kathmandu, Nepal. Complete enumerative sampling technique was used in this study where 107 students were involved. Questionnaire method with SDL scale was used for data collection. Most of the respondents 74(69.2%) had high level of readiness for self-directed learning and 33(30.8%) of respondents had low level of readiness for self-directed learning. The association between academic year with the level of readiness for self-directed learning were statistically significant (p=0.045) whereas the association between other variables (age, ethnicity, religion, marital status, family type and residence) with the level of readiness for self-directed learning were statistically insignificant (p>0.05).It is concluded that depending upon the academic year, seniors are more ready towards self-directed learning than junior nursing students.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of corporate governance on financial distress of listed firms at Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE) using panel data from 2015 to 2019. Specifically, the study focusses on: The effect of board size on financial distress of listed firms at GSE, the effect of board gender diversity on financial distress of listed firms at GSE, the effect of ownership concentration on financial distress of listed firms at GSE and the effect of number of non-executives on financial distress of listed firms at GSE. OLS Regression Model has been conducted using EVIEWS 11. The data has been validated using normality, multicollinearity and Heteroscedascity test as recommended by previous research due to their robustness. The study found that 15.5% variability in financial distress of listed companies is explained by corporate governance practices of the listed companies. This result suggests that a unit change in corporate governance practices will bring about 12.5% changes in financial distress management. The study found that board size was significant determinant of financial distress. Again, the study further found that board diversity was significant determinant of financial distress. Moreover, the study found that managerial experience of the board was significant determinant of financial distress. However, non-executive and capital structure was not determinants of financial distress. The study concludes that corporate governance exerted significant influence on financial distress of listed firms at Ghana Stock Exchange. The study recommends that selected firms at GSE must develop and formulate good policies to help regulate and manage board members so that the decision-making process of the firm can be facilitated to achieve firm goals and objectives while maintaining financial stability.

Education is considered as the foundation upon which the entire edifice of the moral culture of an individual is to be constructed. Education should aim at producing this complete man or whole man with a harmonious all round development of personality i. e. physical, mental, social, moral and spiritual. Education in ancient India aimed at producing this whole man. At a later period, the Buddhist and Jain philosophy of education also insisted on morality, non-violence, self-control, austerity, sacrifice and service to the humanity. In spite of merciless and extensive destruction during the medieval age, Hindu educational institutions remained a living reality. At a much later period there developed the Namaghar in Assam and Bhagvat Tungi in Odisha which became the centers of mass education in their respective states. However, the system of education introduced by Macaulay in 1835 aimed at producing a volume of loyal white collar Indian employees for British administration. This led to the complete devastation of Indian values in the education system of India. This paper discusses about the degradation of values in the education system of India and suggests measures to work for the implementation of value education in the schools of India.

In the four major sections of pottery, bronze ware, clothing and arts and crafts, relevant explanations are given on the application of traditional patterns. The diversity of traditional patterns starts from the level of cultural development, and plays a key role in the impact on peoples life development and the inheritance, promotion and integration of traditional culture. Through the study and understanding of patterns, we can discover the inclusiveness of art and people, art and culture.

In this paper, we develop a theoretical model to simultaneously describe the adoption of improved seed technology and the climate risk perception capacity of farmers facing production risks and incomplete information about the new technology. The adoption condition is derived from the assumptions of upstream climate risk perception and downstream farmer risk aversion, and assuming that uncertainty can arise from two sources: the randomness of climatic conditions and the uncertainty of future returns associated with the use of the new technology. We estimate a reduced form of this model through the Heckman selection probit using a sample of 545 plots distributed in the five regions of Togo. The estimation procedure is developed in two steps. In the first step, we estimate the first four moments of the benefit distribution and in the second step, we incorporate these estimated moments into the model of technology adoption and climate risk perception. We find that risk plays a central role in farmers decisions, first through the direct effect of its perception and second through sampling moments of the yield distribution in the adoption model.

Innovation is the process of making new changes in various fields of activity, as well as in the field of education and industry. The result of such changes is news. Any innovation is inevitable, which is formed in the logic of changes and development in society. The essence of innovation is to the tools and methods to achieve new results, obtain them, to overcome traditional or regular elements of traditional activities. The transition of enterprises and organizations of the national economy (including the education) has further strengthened these all conflicts, but the most painful situation is the need to restore the minds of these employees.

At that time there was 98 cases and no death in 18 countries outside china. The official name covid-19 and SARS –COV2 was issued by the WHO on 11th February 2020 Viruses are named based on their genetic structure to facilitate the development of diagnostic test, Vaccine and medium. Virologist and the wider scientific committee do this work, so virus is are named by the international committee on taxonomy of viruses. A recent review of the survival of human corona virus on surface found large variability ranging from 2 hours to 9 days. The survival time depends on number of factors, including the type of surface, temperature, relative humidity and specific strain of viruses. March 11th 2020, the rapid increase in the number of cases outside china. 118000 cases had been reported in 114 countries and 4291 deaths had been reported. Middle of the March 2020 corona out break could be characterized by “Pandemic” reporting over 40108 globally confirmed cases. As of 28th April 2020, 63% of global mortality from the virus. The impact of the dieses on the world has been staggering both from public health and economic perspective. We evaluated whether prior or active corona virus infection influenced hematological, Biochemical and Clinical parameters of the such patients. But active corona fever resulted in higher hospitalization rate. Our data support the nation that SARS- COV-2 and co morbidity weather affects an important percentage of covid 19 pateints and leads to worse parameters, requiring greater attention from health authorities.

This research was conducted in elementary school Lab. School FIP-UMJ, South Tangerang. Indonesia. The research method used is a qualitative descriptive approach. The number of respondent studies was 25 students who actively participated in extracurricular activities through the internalization of the habit of reading the Koran. The results showed that the student’s character was very good after they mastered the reading of the Koran well, had good attitudes and character. The attitude of the students that is formed is that they are aware to carry out worship because it is God’s command. Spontaneous activities are in the form of giving warnings to students who make mistakes by advising and asking children to apologize. Therefore, as an effort to find a standard and ideal strategy in internalizing religious values in character building so that all attitudes a behavior of students are in accordance with the values of religious character, and thirdly, environmental based, student activities where students have a grand Taksmi program, activities that involving parents and guardians. The family is the first and foremost place for children’s growth and development. The basis of character education should be applied from childhood or what psychologists call the golden age, because this age has been proven to greatly determine a child’s ability to develop his potential. About 50% of the variability of adult intelligence occurs when the child is 4 year. The next 30% increase occurs at the age of 8 years, and the remaining 20% in the middle or late second decade. From here, character education should start from within the family which is the first environment for the growth of children’s character.

Background: Near misses are the most crucial and valuable elements in the prevention of potentially unintentional harm in patients service provision. Reporting incidents is an essential component in inculcating patient safety culture. In developed countries medical services are now focused on vigilance on such near misses. This paradigm shift of medical service provision paved the way for patient safety domain in medical service design. Patient safety has now become one of the six constituents of service quality. Continuous vigilance for possible near misses will disclose them beforehand. This will avoid triggering the chain reaction that bring about disastrous patient outcomes. Favorability of existing practices and knowledge on near misses are two key determinants of the successful safety culture initiatives. Methods: Cross sectional descriptive study carried out at the Colombo South Teaching Hospital. A stratified sample of medical officers was selected out of those involved in the patient care services. Stratification was done according to the service categories such as specialist grade, grade medical officers and intern officers. Most reason salary sheet used as the sampling frame to select medical officers randomly from each stream. A pretested self-administered questionnaire was used, as the study instrument. The questionnaire contained two main sections as knowledge and practices. Data analysis done using PSSP software. Results: Over all response rate was 90%. Over 94% of respondents had satisfactory or good level of knowledge. 88% did not report near misses. Overall, a considerable percentage (n=168 ,53%) had poor level of practices. Only 5.9% (n=19) had good level of practices. In the specialist grade medical officers 41.1% had poor practices despite none of the specialists having a poor knowledge. Highest level of poor practices (n=128,70.8%) was seen in grade II medical officers. Conclusions: The study reveals that majority of medical officers at CSTH have a satisfactory knowledge on the near misses as predecessors of the of patient harm. continuous engagement in near misses’ surveillance in an organization is an integral component in a patient safety culture. However, the practices are not satisfactory in a majority.

There is a well-known statement by A. Einstein that there are two ways to live this life. The first, to consider that miracles do not happen, the other, to consider that everything around is a miracle. These words can be paraphrased in relation to mathematics. There are two ways of thinking: some believe that mathematics is necessary in all spheres of human activity and that it teaches the brain to think logically, thereby helping to put both human thoughts and activities in order. Others, on the contrary, believe that mathematics is out of date and that high-tech machines are gradually taking its place. Which one is right? The article attempts to reflect on this topic.

Nowadays, with the current COVID-19 pandemic, education is done in the medium of online platforms compared to the typical on-site learning. As a result, this could be a drastic change in learning environments for many. A key component for learning is motivation, which could be correlated with the happiness students experience while learning. This study aims to compare different levels of happiness and motivation to learn between online and onsite settings and to find the correlation between happiness and motivation of students while learning. The data of this study was collected through an online survey, with the participant’s consent. The participants were students aged between 14-19, who have both experienced on-site learning and online learning. Participants answered 5-Likert scaled statements regarding happiness and motivation while learning in different settings. Additionally, statements regarding motivation were developed on the basis of the principle basic psychological needs which consists of three components: Autonomy, Competence, and Relatedness. The survey received 253 responses in which the data, the mean, p-value (t-test), and the correlation value were calculated. Analysis of data showed that the mean scores of happiness and motivation of students while learning on-site were statistically higher than those of learning online at the significance level of 95%. Furthermore, the results illustrated that there was a high level of correlation of happiness and motivation to learn in both learning environments.

The pandemic has challenged the educational system to alter the delivery of instruction from the traditional face-to-face into distant learning, modular and online. This sudden paradigm shift posited a lot of concerns particularly in the integration of technology in social studies curriculum. This review used the systematic literature review to analyze the empirical literature and the reading log (University of South Australia) to analyze the findings. The systematic literature is a rigorous approach in searching related literature, identifying publications to be included to undergo an iterative and transparent processes, analyze the data through a structured abstraction and a systematic approach (Gentles, S.J. et. al. 2016). This review found out that there is a limited literature in the integration of technology specific in social studies both internationally and in the Philippine context. Although there are some literature on technology integration in social studies, they failed to tackle the experiences and challenges by the teachers in technological integration in full online delivery of instruction specific in social studies teaching. Thus, it is recommended that researchers must explore other angles of technological integration in social studies such as the teacher’s perceptions of specific technologies used in the subject. Second, the experiences and challenges they encountered during the delivery of instruction amidst the crisis. Third, studies should also be conducted on the effect of technology integration to student outcomes. These studies will serve as the basis for the future planning, design, implementation, assessment, and modification of social studies curriculum to be more student centered, contextualized and inclusive with the use or aid of technologies.

Objective: To evaluate the association of new anthropometric indicators with glycemic control in overweight patients with type II diabetes. Methods: The sample consisted of 164 type II diabetic patients selected for convenience. Demographic, socioeconomic variables and time since diabetes diagnosis were collected using a structured questionnaire. Anthropometric measurements of weight, height, waist circumference (WC) and hip circumference were taken. The Body Mass Index (BMI), BodyShape Index (ABSI), BodyShapeRoundness Index (BRI) and Body Adipose Index (BAI) indicators were calculated. The 12-hour fasting blood samples were collected by means of digital puncture by a trained professional. Patients were classified into two groups: controlled (= 130 mg/dL) and altered (> 130 mg/dL) glycemia. To evaluate models adjusted for glycemic control (dependent variable) and new indicators (independent variables), logistic regression was used. Results: There was a correlation of the new anthropometric indicators with the body mass index. It was observed that there were no differences in the means of BMI, WC and the new indicators (ABSI, BRI, IAC) between glycemic control status. The new anthropometric indicators were not associated with glycemic control in type II diabetics, only ABSI in women was associated with altered glycemia (OR=3.81; p=0.040). Conclusion: We conclude that the ABSI anthropometric method in women is associated with glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

The study examines the effect of government policy on the growth of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Anambra State. The study was anchored on the business growth theory. Descriptive survey design was adopted. The Population was 1,200 SME operators in Anambra State. The sample size of 300 SMEs was employed using Yamane’s formula.

Objective: The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the physical, mental, and social well-being of millions of people across the globe. This paper will discuss the impact of COVID-19 on preexisting and emerging mental health issues amongst various subgroups of the vulnerable population in Southeast Asia. Methods: Qualitative review of existing knowledge on mental health issues during COVID-19 pandemic among migrant laborers, women and adolescents. Conclusion: Given the profound impact of COVID -19 beyond physical health, policy makers, scientific communities and faith-based institutions should make every effort to turn the COVID-19 crisis into an opportunity by developing a strong and robust consensus that is based on building public trust in partnership to provide societal mental health, which is an unappreciated asset of a nation. We conclude that while there is considerable amount of work in the field of mental health has been done, many efforts are siloed, and do not consider the unique cultural characteristics involved. In addition to providing ventilators and acute care to COVID-19 affected patients at the hospitals, we need to design policies to allocate resources for the post-pandemic burden on our communities and develop multi-disciplinary approaches. We suggest that these approaches should become routine in healthcare settings and should be appropriate to the individual’s cultural context. We argue that the generation of robust data, scientific evidence, and multi-disciplinary resources-sharing are required that would necessitate to produce the interventions that are culturally specific and scalable.

A record of school attendance was taken from students’ school attendance registers from sampled schools. Multiple Regression analysis was conducted to assess the effects of parenting style school attendance. The result showed that authoritarian parenting style predicted negatively with school attendance. Also, the authoritative parenting style has a positive prediction for school attendance. Implications, limitations, and future research opportunities are discussed. Parenting style played an important role in influencing the level of a child’s school attendance.

This research was conducted to identify errors committed by students in solving word problems, determine their possible causes and propose corrective measures for classroom teaching. The analysis was centered on the five errors adopted from Newman’s Error Analysis Guide namely: reading, comprehension, transformation, process, and encoding. The study used a mixed-method research design. In collecting errors, the students were given a series of test questions. The results of the tests were compared and the specific error patterns along with the probable sources were descriptively investigated. Two weeks after the test, students were interviewed to identify their misconceptions and their reasoning. In the interview process, students were asked to explain their thinking while they were doing the same problems again. Some prompting questions were asked to facilitate this process and to clarify more about students’ claims. The data gathered were treated statistically using frequency count, mean percentage, and test concerning two means. Findings reveal that some of the common errors were seen to be persistent and the sources from which they derive were not consistent. Thus, the students’ errors occurred in varied ways in problem-solving situations. Analysis of error patterns led to the conclusion that the students have difficulty on algebraic symbolism and analysis of the problem. Their inability to deduce the correct meaning of mathematical statements further create a chain of errors on succeeding steps required of a mathematical word problem. The conclusions drawn from this investigation strongly justify the needs to recognize and to develop critical and analytical thinking of the students. That is, students must be expose in solving non-routine problems in order to provide them an opportunity to develop higher-order thinking in the process of understanding, analysis, exploration, and application of mathematical concepts.

We do research about the impact of belief, attitude and subjective norm on OCOP (one community one product) products purchase intention of Vietnamese consumers. OCOP (abbreviated in English as One commune one product). In Vietnamese sense, each commune (ward) has a product. More specifically, developing the form of organization of production and trading of traditional and advantageous products in rural areas. Through testing with the fixed effects model (FEM) and random effects model (REM), we found that belief, attitude and social influence have positive impacts on the products purchase intention. Specifically, belief has the greatest impact on OCOP purchase intention of Vietnamese consumers.

The growth and development of the organ system at different ages of the human body is of particular importance. Differences in morphological and physiological indicators of the organism are noticeable, especially in the early school years, when the growth rate is significantly higher. The study of some morphologically important physical development indicators of young school-age children, the study of health indicators is of great importance. This article provides a statistical analysis of some anthropometric indicators of primary school girls of secondary school. Based on the results, appropriate suggestions and conclusions are made.

Eco-immunological studies on feral organisms can throw insights into how host–pathogen dynamics fluctuate with selective pressure from human interventions and other natural infestations. Feral colonies are more susceptible to pathogen attack than the managed bees, in the absence of disease treatments. During the study tried to investigate the role of pathogen infections [Deformed wing virus (DWV) and Nosema ceranae] and gene expression of immune members (defensin-1, hymenoptaecin, pgrp-lc, pgrp-s2 and argonaute- 2) in the survival of feral bee colonies across seasons (winter and summer). We surveyed a total of 90 feral colonies over a 3-year period (2018–2021), measuring the pathogen levels and immune gene expression using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Our results confirmed of the positive upregulation of the immune gene members in winters where pathogen loads are found to be more. Higher pathogen levels seem to be associated with increased immune gene expression across all the species in the study. There was no significant effect seen among species, but significant effect was seen across the seasons (p < 0.05). Our results could help in suggesting the possible indicator genes to assess the overall health of honey bee colonies and provide evidence for the role of feralization in how they cope up with pathogen landscapes.

The objective of our study was to screen the extent of genetic variability and phylogenetic relations among the three kinds of honey bee species from Bengaluru at different habitats. The Asian honey bee species i.e., Apis cerana indica, Apis dorsata and Apis florea collected from Bengaluru were studied by using partial sequences from two mitochondrial genes (i) the Cytochrome c oxidase-I (COI) and (ii) the mitochondrial encoded NADH dehydrogenase 5 (NADH5). We then compared their sequences with already submitted sequences from national centre for biotechnology information (NCBI) to deduce the genetic variations among the species. We also studied the rate of mutations across the species by polymorphism studies. The amplified sequences were analysed for evolutionary genetic analysis using neighbor-joining method and Kimura 2-parameter model. Our study confirmed that, there was less genetic variability in A.florea species which might be due to its selective pressures. A.cerana indica on the other hand was found to consists of more mutations. Throughout our study we found bees within the residential areas showed significant mutation rates than the other habitats which was seen among all the three bee species. Though the significant effect was not remarkable, but still this variability could answer many of the genetic problems of existing and evolving in harsh conditions.
