This study aims to assess and determine whether there is a discrepancy between consumers' perceptions in Makassar, Indonesia, and Muslim consumers about Islamic branding and marketing and to create a deeper understanding of the perceptions of Indonesian consumers. The research method used is a quantitative analysis with PLS-SEM equipment and data collection techniques using a questionnaire. The size of the population used was 400 respondents. To answer the question, the researcher used a Likert scale. Likert scale estimates imply necessary statistical calculations. Based on the study's results, Islamic branding influences consumer perception favorably. The majority population of Makassar City is Muslims with solid faith and culture, reflected obviously in their perception of consuming halal goods and services that are provided based on Islamic teachings. Islamic brand has to emphasize that it is a brand that holds Halal sources. Then it will make an evident perception of Islamic brands. Therefore, Islamic brands adhere to Sharia's requirement to be authentic Halal brands.

Police service is considered difficult and commonly regarded as a high-stress profession. Police officers deal with numerous complex daily challenges and must make split-second judgments. Thus, it is vital to investigate and assess law enforcement officers' operational stress, organizational stress, and coping strategies, as they are linked to their performance in the police organization. In this research, a descriptive-correlational study was employed using a purposive sampling method with police officers from the Municipal Police Station of San Jose de Buenavista in the Province of Antique, Philippines. The findings revealed that police officers could handle work-related issues caused by various stressors, whether in their operational or organizational functions. Furthermore, police officers can cope moderately with stress, indicating they can manage and deal with it effectively. Additionally, demographic groups perceive similar work stress for operational and organizational functions, including coping strategies. Finally, police officers' coping mechanisms often become influenced by operational and organizational stress. With this, the present study's findings strongly support the notion that operational and organizational stressors are fundamental to policing; as a result, police officers may adopt more effective coping strategies to combat the impacts of stress and enhance their work-related well-being. Police personnel may benefit from interventions and programs to reduce the effects of occupational stress.

Police as leaders hold a critical role and should stand firm and dignified. The main objective of this research work is to highlight factors that could influence the exercise of police discretion, as perceived by the Sorsogon City Police. This research work utilized the use of descriptive-correlation design, utilizing questionnaires as the means to identify the possible factors; twenty-two questionnaires were used and retrieved. Among the factors that got a high score for conducting an arrest is the location of the Place of the suspect to be arrested, with an average weighted mean of 3.32. As to the factor affecting police discretion based on case investigation, lack of interest on the part of the complainant scored high with a WAM of 3.0. While some factors scored low, this research work has concluded that (1) the length of service and rank of police offers can affect the exercise of police discretion. (2) some factors affect the exercise of police discretion as perceived by Sorsogon City police but then assured that their discretion is not clouded or influenced by other stated factors such as partisanship. (3) lack of human resources is still a prevailing factor in the impediment of police work.

In education, it is easy to ignore children's emotional needs, which affects physical and mental health. A quantitative study randomly distributed a questionnaire among selected primary school children who reported academic stress, emotional state, and parental involvement. The study's findings indicated a correlation between parental involvement, academic stress, and positive and negative emotions. Academic stress played a partial mediating role in the influence of parental involvement on emotion. Children's emotional state can be improved with parents’ involvement in their lives and studies; however, children should be given relief from academic stress to make them happy indirectly. The study aims to investigate parental involvement's influence on children's positive and negative emotions and whether academic stress plays a mediating role.

This study provides a theoretical understanding of gender biases in Indian politics, particularly associated with the transgender community, and broadly focuses on gender discrimination in the Indian political system. Although some studies have examined issues and problems of political participation of males and females, most have failed to examine transgender participation in politics, particularly in Indian politics. Most of the researchers reported transgender community unable to articulate their point of view because society sees them in different perspectives rather than their unusual activities. The aim of the study is to understand gender biases in the Indian political system, particularly those associated with the transgender community. The study revealed new experiences by reviewing the previously published studies on the transgender community and highlighted major gaps in research, especially from gender perspectives. The study highlights gender biases and discrimination in political affairs still prevalent in Indian society. The article concludes by recommending some suggestions that the existing Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Act, 2019mustproperly be implemented and government must encourage and generate new initiatives for maximum involvement of transgender in Indian politics in particular.

Motivation for reading is a desire and act to read for some cognitive and social reasons, which activate the readers to carry out their interaction with written materials for success and mastery in a subject. Reading motivation is a serious contributor to reading accomplishment and has the potential to stimulate reading skills development. However, the Pakistani context pursues learning motivation in e potential to promote reading skills development h (L2) learning motivation. Pakistani researchers have been seeking L2 (English) motivation. Based on secondary data sources and using qualitative data methods such as thematic analysis, this paper aims to focus on the need for English (L2) reading motivation. This paper has been divided into three sections. The first section deals with exploring learning motivation; the second deals with the scope of reading motivation in Pakistan. The third section tries to recommend some useful suggestions for the conduct of studies in reading motivation in Pakistan.

This study aimed to examine the adoption of an improved sorghum variety (melkam) and its impact on smallholder farmers’ food security in Babile district, Eastern Harerghe zone, Oromia regional state, Ethiopia. A mixed research methodology was used to utilize both quantitative and qualitative strategies for data gathering and analysis. A multistage sampling process was applied to choose the 320 sample household heads. Literature was reviewed for secondary data. The results of the descriptive statistics indicated that 47.5% and 52.5% of the sample households adopted and did not adopt enhanced sorghum varieties, respectively. According to the findings of the binary logistic regression, factors that positively influenced farmers' decisions to adopt improved sorghum varieties included years of education, land holding, incomes, the availability of credit services, extension contact, and farmer cooperatives. In contrast, factors that adversely impacted farmers' judgments included household head age and market distance. Hence, this upshot concludes that improving educational levels, creating a fine line for credit access, and enhancing farmer cooperatives are needed to improve sorghum variety adoption.

The current study aimed to investigate how Pakistani students felt about their English language anxiety using the Clément and Baker self-confidence questionnaire. The researcher conducted a pre-test to check the validity and reliability of the English Self-confidence Questionnaires among Pakistani students. All of the participants in the sample, who were chosen at random and ranged in age from 18 to 29, were enrolled in public sector programs of study. The study's data was analyzed on (SPSS statistical software for social sciences version 23). In the data analysis stage, descriptive statistics are used first in data analysis techniques to analyze the means and percentages of the data. The pretest of the questionnaire, given to 50 participants, was followed by the study. Pre-testing involved recruiting college and undergraduate public students from the general population (n = 50). The survey was distributed to Pakistani students at several institutions online via Google-form. According to reliability and validity analysis, the total Cronbach's alpha was 0.949, which indicated high statistical reliability. According to the study's findings, item no. 6's validity score was low. On the other hand, the scale's other items have strong validity. The research concluded that the English self-confidence scale is a valid and reliable tool for use with Pakistani students experiencing language anxiety. Supposing the data analysis was cross-sectional, the observed results could only address the descriptive and discriminative power of English self-confidence scales for public school/college and undergraduate students. More research is needed since these findings are based on a cross-sectional study and convenience samples.

The training of human resources in hotel businesses is very important since it is directly related to creating a competitive advantage by improving its performance. The main research objective of the present study is to investigate the effectiveness of training methods with regard to the improvement of human resources performance in hotel businesses. Field research was conducted by collecting quantitative data from 17/3/2022 to 17/5/2022 in Greece through a questionnaire from a "convenience" sample of 135 hotel employees. Exploratory and Confirmatory Factor Analysis was used to analyze the collected data statistically. The improvement of the performance of the human resources of a hotel is related to a mixture of training methods that favor formal and informal learning: Case Studies, Business Games and Mentoring. The results of this study have led a) to the creation and validation of four new Likert-type scales that other researchers in the future can use, and b) to the creation of specialized mixtures of training methods that hotel managers can apply to improve the performance of human resources in specific fields of interest.
