Redistribution for income equality is a contentious issue, with advocates citing increased economic stability and skeptics fearing potential negative impacts on economic growth. The United States (U.S.) faces notably high income inequality compared to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) average, with wealth concentrated in the top brackets. This paper critically examines the existing U.S. redistribution methods, including the taxation system and welfare programs, highlighting challenges such as the lack of tax progressiveness in top brackets and limited redistribution compared to European counterparts. Based on this overview, the study evaluates alternative redistribution strategies, including wealth and business taxes. The paper compares theory with insights from pilot programs in other countries. Finally, the paper argues for a universal basic income (UBI) set at per-capita welfare spending, positing that this approach can empower individuals to escape poverty traps, enhance productivity, and introduce a choice mechanism for welfare consumption. Ultimately, this research seeks to propose the most effective and feasible income redistribution policies for the U.S. to bridge the income inequality gap.

Universitas Terbuka (UT) now a days is applying the centralization and standardization model on its student service management system. Those both administrative and academic services are handled directly by t he Rectorate office and the working units under it. Student administrative services include admission, registration, tutoring the Modul-Base of course subject matter, exam-schedules determination, exam-results announcement, grader-transcripts printing and graduation ceremonies. Academic services involve curriculum establishment, subject course material settlement, tutorial services, remedial teaching, learning assessment, and academic judisium. The objectives of managerial centralization and standardization are at least assuring the achievement of managerial efficiency and effectivity. However, in the practical terms the midle line and operating core bussiness services apperently could not resolve problems in quick and effective manner, when students asked for help due to the problems of delivered administrative and academic services. The research question was "what is the impact of centralized and standardized of student service management system to the UT overall services performance?". The method used was a case-study, and the data were taken through series of document review, observation technique and interviews. The data were analyzed descriptively qualitative using MPFAAC technique. The study concluded that the student service managerial centralization and standardization brought about the inability of the midle line and operating core bussiness services from doing any job creativity, innovation, and responsivity.

The researcher aimed to assess the impact on the institutional performance of the bank’s sample research, the statement of relationship, and the quality of internal control through his research. There were seven banks in the government commercial bank research community, and two banks were included in the sample research. To evaluate his research hypotheses, the investigator used a two-axis resolution distributed among 45 questions, totaling 68. A basic linear regression model was employed by the researcher. According to Pearson's coefficient of correlation with the research findings, the study sample banks demonstrated both high levels of institutional performance and internal control quality. Additionally, it demonstrated a statistically significant relationship between the quality of internal control and the banking institution's performance. Based on these findings, the researcher recommended that banks take a greater interest in internal control, which will help to improve the institutions' overall performance.

Upper secondary educational institutions have outstanding students in different areas of knowledge. Some of them show scientific skills, technological innovation, and others are considered high-performance athletes. They can enhance their abilities and face more demanding challenges by participating in academic and/or sporting events. The aim of this study was "to discuss the importance of the timely detection of outstanding students in upper secondary education academic units, as well as to analyse the factors that influence the achievement of their goals". The research was conducted at the Guasave Daytime High School of the Autonomous University of Sinaloa (UAS), in the municipality of Guasave, Sinaloa, Mexico. It was designed as a case study, with an exploratory-explanatory analysis. A total of 455 surveys were administered to students. The academic unit has 3898 students, the data were captured in Google Forms to describe the attitudinal profile of high school students, ways of learning, strengths, and weaknesses to develop scientific skills. Interest in participating in important academic and sporting events was considered as activities to identify outstanding students. The results show the importance of implementing strategies that allow teachers to detect outstanding students in a timely manner. The dissemination of extracurricular activities was considered because students have the potential to develop their scientific and sporting talents. However, these activities have little dissemination among students. It is concluded that the Academic Units should have a greater dissemination of extracurricular activities and have a programme to detect outstanding students. It is important to train and guide teachers so that they can identify and channel outstanding students and be able to enhance their abilities.

This study examines the multifaceted impacts of hierarchical systems and social networking on social differentiation, network formation, and individual well-being. Employing a comprehensive literature review and meta-analysis, it explores the dynamics of power and status within organizations, the influence of social resources on socioeconomic status, and the role of social networking sites in shaping social capital and psychological health. The research investigates how hierarchical structures within organizations and informal social settings contribute to social differentiation, examining the effects of power, status, and social resources on individual and group dynamics. Additionally, it assesses the impact of social networking sites on social well-being, career development, and psychological health, considering both the positive and negative consequences of online social interactions. The study reveals that while hierarchical systems and social networking can foster social capital, professional growth, and enhanced well-being, they also pose risks of social inequality, psychological distress, and exacerbated mental health issues. The findings underscore the complexity of social relations in the digital age, offering insights for developing more inclusive social structures and healthier digital interaction spaces. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of the interplay between social hierarchies, networking, and well-being, providing valuable implications for organizational leaders, policymakers, and individuals navigating social differentiation and digital socialization.

Academic motivation in teaching and learning processes, both in general and in particular in higher education, has been of great interest in educational research, since it is the basis of academic success. In this work, the model "Expectations-Value of achievement motivation" has been considered, which uses a socio-cognitive perspective to design an inventory that allows measuring the motivation for academic achievement in higher education. With this objective, the Motivational Inventory of Academic Achievement (IMLA) is created, supported by a rigorous methodological process in order to make this instrument reliable and valid. The psychometric properties of the IMLA were determined from the analysis of content validity, reliability and construct in a sample of 464 higher education students from a Chilean and a Spanish university. The results indicate that the IMLA has 9 factors that explain 64.11% of the total variance and a Cronbach's alpha of .913, a rating considered high according to the requirements of a measurement instrument. In this way, this study contributes with the creation of a tool that integrates important motivational aspects focused on internal cognitive beliefs, based on expectations and the value of the task, as well as incorporating the assessment of the environment, for which reason it is estimated. that the IMLA is an instrument with a high potential for the educational and scientific field.
