This study uses the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI) database from 1997 to 2022 and the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) from 2008 to 2022 to analyse global competence in order to examine the present condition of global competence research. The results showed a rising trend in global competence where the United States was in the leading position and China ranked second in academic publications but its influence was relatively weak. According to a keyword analysis, "global competence," "education," "model," "globalization" and "global governance" were the most prevalent topics. The keyword time map analysis generated three periods of 'global competence research: the embryonic stage before 2010, the initial exploration period from 2011 to 2016 and the development period from 2017 until now. Future studies should concentrate on developing a theoretical framework for localization and creating practical assessment tools based on the framework. Implementation strategies must also be actively investigated.

The youth represent a significant source of hope for a developing country such as the Philippines. Adolescents show a lack of interest in pursuing education leading to high dropout rates. Many researchers have conducted several studies to determine why students stop schooling. This study aimed to investigate the dropout determinants that influence out-of-school youth in Iligan City and Lanao Del Norte. Purposive sampling was used. Two hundred (200) out-of-school youth from Iligan City and Lanao Del Norte were the participants of this study. The researchers used a Likert scale survey questionnaire to collect the data. In addition, the researcher used descriptive analysis to calculate the median and frequency. The results found that academic experience especially boredom in the classroom was the leading dropout determinant influencing out-of-school youth. The other factor was family financial support. The study recommends that the government, non-government organizations and all stakeholders not only focus on providing financial assistance to students but also consider the students' learning experience inside the classroom. Academic boredom is a serious issue that requires immediate solutions.
对于像菲律宾这样的发展中国家来说,青年是希望的重要来源。青少年缺乏追求教育的兴趣,导致高辍学率。许多研究人员进行了几项研究,以确定学生辍学的原因。本研究旨在探讨影响伊利甘市和北拉瑙市失学青年的辍学决定因素。采用有目的抽样。来自Iligan市和Lanao Del Norte的200名失学青少年是本研究的参与者。研究人员使用李克特量表调查问卷来收集数据。此外,研究者使用描述性分析来计算中位数和频率。结果发现,学业经历,尤其是课堂上的无聊是影响校外青少年辍学的主要决定因素。另一个因素是家庭经济支持。该研究建议,政府、非政府组织和所有利益相关者不仅要关注为学生提供经济援助,还要考虑学生在课堂上的学习经历。学业无聊是一个需要立即解决的严重问题。

This study aims to analyse scientific literature on collaborative governance in forestry issues published from 2001 to 2022. To ensure paper quality, the study will use VOSviewer software to visualise the bibliometric analysis from Scopus Database. Bibliometric analysis was used to analyse 72 papers about collaborative governance in forestry issues. VOSviewer software visualised publishing trends, country/institution/author contributions, journal distribution, highly cited articles, bibliographic coupling analysis, and keyword analysis. According to the study, collaborative governance in forestry publications has increased considerably in the last decade. Most research on this issue comes from the US, Canada, and Australia. Colorado State campus was the study's most affiliated campus, followed by Saskatchewan and Oregon. This study was published in Land Use Policy, Society and Natural Resources, and Ecology and Society. The combination of bibliographies and keyword concurrency networks showed that collaborative governance in forestry issues is closely linked to sustainable development, environmental governance, and forest governance. The study finds that collaborative governance in forestry issues needs more research, especially with collaborative governance as a framework. The bibliometric analysis provides a complete overview of publishing trends, country/institution/author contributions, journal distribution and highly cited articles, bibliographic coupling analysis, and keyword analysis in this field. Researchers, policymakers, and practitioners interested in collaborative governance in forestry may profit from the study. The results may identify key contributors, influential journals, and critical study areas linked to this topic.

While there have been great advances in HIV prevention methods in recent years, such as daily pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and combination antiretrovirals used as Treatment as Prevention (TaSP), access to care, compliance, and consistent follow-up with treatment remain barriers to care in high-risk populations. The purpose of this study was to explore the barriers and facilitators for the uptake and acceptability of PrEP among female sex workers in Tshwane District, South Africa. A descriptive qualitative research design was used. Female sex workers (FSW) aged 18 years and above were purposively sampled to participate in the study. The research team approached a minimum of 24 female sex workers until data saturation was achieved. The results showed that barriers such as a shortage of PrEP, side effects of PrEP, unawareness of collection points, reliance on pills, stigmatization, and absence of clinics influenced the uptake and acceptability of PrEP. The study also reported on facilitators that enhance the uptake and acceptability of PrEP among sex workers in Tshwane District. These facilitators include knowledge and awareness, perceived HIV risk, availability of mobile clinics, the effectiveness of PrEP, easier accessibility of information, awareness programmes, fear of infection, and preventative measure. This study established the barriers and facilitators that potentially influence the uptake and acceptability of PrEP among female sex workers in the Tshwane District, Gauteng Province, South Africa.

The impact of the recent pandemic on aspects of corporate governance, business, a country's economy, corporate distress, failures, and the general well-being of companies has been a subject of robust discussion. This study was conducted to examine the influence of corporate governance in mediating and managing the risk of corporate distresses and failures before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The study employed the Panel Autoregressive Distributed Lag (PARDL) model on annual data from 2010 to 2021 to analyze the short-run and long-run effects of the pandemic on corporate governance and sustainability performance. The results from both the short-run and long-run effects are similar, revealing that the estimated coefficient of the debt-to-equity ratio, finance costs, and COVID-19 related costs are negative but significant in the models. Conversely, the coefficients of the current ratio, quick ratio, and board size from both short-run and long-run effects show positive and significant results. Generally, the findings reveal that the coefficient of board size, as a proxy for corporate governance, has a very strong influence in mediating the risk of corporate distress and failure before, during, and after the pandemic period, up to a certain level until the pandemic’s impact was severe on companies’ production, sales, and other operational performance. Based on the above findings, it is recommended that the board of directors and other management boards employ enhanced good governance strategies and improve risk control mechanisms that enhance company performance during the pandemic to help avert corporate distresses and failure rates thereafter.

This study uses a new model developed in this paper to investigate the performance of a heterojunction phototransistor (HPT) on SiGe technology. An electrical model of an optical window phototransistor was developed based on the Ebers & Moll model, and its performance was evaluated by examining the error vector magnitude (EVM) when integrated into a mobile communication setup. Simulations showed that the HPT exhibited an EVM lower than 8%, enabling 64-Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (64-QAM) modulation for the mobile network. The third-order intercept point (IP3) measured 22 dBm, making the HPT suitable for Radio over Fiber (RoF) links in the detection block. The noise model of the HPT was also studied, resulting in a favorable power spectral density (PSD) that facilitates accurate modeling and prediction of the noise behavior of HPTs across various applications. This study provides valuable insights into the performance of HPTs on SiGe technology, enabling the development of more precise and efficient models for future research and practical applications. The results carry significant implications for the use of HPTs in optical communication systems.

The accelerated production of solid waste in the urban-rural context requires studies to optimize the environmental pollution gap. The objective of the study is to know the perspectives of sociodemographic factors and solid waste management in the district of Chachapoyas. The research is of a causal descriptive type at an explanatory level. The sample is composed of 382 families obtained through probabilistic sampling. The survey technique was used, and the questionnaire was a valid and reliable instrument (Cronbach's alpha = 0.777). The results indicate that the sociodemographic profile has a significant effect (p<0.05) on solid waste management, including economic status, age, occupation, education level, monthly income, area of residence, and number of persons per household. In addition, it was found that solid waste management in the city has a regular level of performance. However, there are gaps that need to be addressed in the following order of priority: storage, final disposal, generation, treatment, and recycling. In conclusion, solid waste management in the city of Chachapoyas is average, indicating the need to address these gaps in the formulation of new public policies.

Strategic management accounting (SMA) is an advanced management tool that provides valuable information to aid managers in making strategic decisions for both long-term and short-term choices. Many factors motivated managers to adopt strategic management accounting (SMA) practices in their enterprises. Furthermore, strategic management accounting (SMA) techniques also consider external stakeholders such as customers, suppliers and regulators. Therefore, there may be various aspects of the external working environment that impact SMA implementations. On the other hand, strategic management accounting (SMA) also helps managers manage costs and resources effectively. Other internal factors such as managers’ perceptions about SMA, the knowledge of accountants and technologies also significantly impact the adoption of SMA techniques. The study’s main objective is to investigate the factors that affect SMA implementation in Vietnamese enterprises. Purposive techniques are used in the study’s explorative quantitative survey approach and data collection. Data from 305 Vietnamese enterprises are included in the sample. The findings demonstrate that the adoption of SMA practices is positively associated with four factors including top management teams, corporate culture, perceived environmental uncertainty and management networking.

In the educational field, sleep is a vital need for students. Recent research has connected smartphone addiction, poor sleep, and academic failure. There is a glaring paucity of information on this subject in Morocco. In order to fill this gap, we conducted this study. This cross-sectional study investigated the effect of smartphone addiction on sleep quality and school outcomes among secondary school students in Marrakesh, Morocco. Following the simple random method, a sample of 389 students was selected. They answered an online questionnaire that included questions about some demographic characteristics, smartphone use, and sleeping habits. The results revealed that 57.8% of the students suffer from smartphone addiction, and 59.9% suffer from poor sleep quality. The study found that there is a moderately positive correlation between smartphone addiction and poor sleep quality. The study not only suggests the need for parents, educators, and health professionals to raise awareness about the negative effects of smartphone addiction on students’ sleep quality, but also provides a basis for developing interventions aims at reducing smartphone addiction and improving sleep quality.
