This study aims at investigating the implementation of the stunting prevention programme called Delicious, Nutritious and Low-Cost School Lunch (DNLCSL) for elementary school students in Bandung City, West Java Province, Indonesia. This research employed a mixed-methods design combining quantitative and qualitative approaches. Quantitative data was collected through surveys and qualitative data was collected through in-depth interviews with leaders in the education and culture offices, health department, public health centre staff, elementary school principals, teachers, students, parents and canteen staff. The research findings revealed that the stunting prevention program DNLCSL was an innovative nutrition campaign. The DNLCSL Programme was implemented as an alternative to nutrition education to help elementary school students consume nutritious and well-balanced food. The planning and organizing phases have been completed but the implementation and monitoring processes should be improved. It was found that there were changes concerning lunch boxes and snacking habits in the elementary schools that consistently implemented the program. This research implies that more widespread implementation is needed as the DNLCSL programme can improve students' knowledge, attitudes and dietary habits which can indirectly prevent stunting. The involvement of the government, education and health agencies and community collaboration are also needed to keep the programme sustainable.

Youth drug usage is caused by insufficient parental support. Lack of dedication, decreased communication and poor family connection describe inadequate family support. In addition to parental support, self-efficacy, employer support and community support have been shown to promote addiction and relapse. Substance addiction among youth is alarming and could harm the next generation if not handled. Thus, family and parents strongly impact teenage drug usage. Drug dependence prevention begins with parents. Parents affect their children by offering advice, setting explicit drug use restrictions and emphasizing good communication skills as part of their commitment. Thus, this study aims to determine the significance of family participation particularly parental involvement in reducing juvenile substance addiction in Malaysia. We use Hirshi's social bond theory to link a parent's willingness to participate in a drug prevention programme to their social bonding which includes their attachment, devotion and academic involvement. Additionally, proportionate sampling was used for stratified sampling. Two criteria were used to choose participants: parents with children aged 13–18 and drug-free families. The survey has 515 respondents, 103 per state: Kelantan, Kedah, Kuala Lumpur/Selangor, Johor and Sabah. NADA lists it in high-risk states. Study results indicate that attachment (ATT) and participation (INV) do not affect interest (INT). The study also found that commitment (COM) affects interest (INT). Additionally, the commitment (COM) f² value has a minor impact on interest (INT), an endogenous variable. Agencies must collaborate and exchange resources to promote drug awareness and a drug-free family culture.

The COVID-19 pandemic, a worldwide health emergency has had extensive effects not just on the economy but also on mental well-being specifically among healthcare professionals. This study focuses on examining the extent and symptoms of post-traumatic stress as well as the causes associated with it, the techniques employed to respond and the effectiveness of coping mechanisms among healthcare professionals who are providing care to COVID-19 patients in certain hospitals located in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. This research used a mixed-methods approach combining qualitative and quantitative research techniques. This included documentary analysis, surveys, mathematical and statistical analysis and in-depth interviews. The sample consisted of 638 healthcare workers aged between 21 and 63 working at Cho Ray Hospital and the COVID-19 Resuscitation Unit. The results suggest that a majority of healthcare professionals display indications of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) ranging from occasional mild episodes occurring once a month to more severe occurrences exceeding 17 times per month. The research findings indicate that coping techniques show high individualization. While certain healthcare professionals may exhibit "normal" levels of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), effectively managing stress through rest, relaxation and personal time, others with varying degrees of PTSD necessitate professional therapeutic assistance to mitigate the risk of self-harm. This study highlights the pressing necessity for the provision of focused mental health assistance to healthcare personnel in light of the current epidemic.
COVID-19 大流行是一场世界性的卫生紧急事件，它不仅对经济产生了广泛影响，而且还对医护专业人员的心理健康产生了影响。本研究的重点是调查创伤后应激反应的程度和症状，以及与之相关的原因，在越南胡志明市某些医院为 COVID-19 患者提供护理的医护人员所采用的应对技巧和应对机制的有效性。本研究采用了定性和定量研究技术相结合的混合方法。其中包括文献分析、调查、数理统计分析和深度访谈。样本包括 638 名在 Cho Ray 医院和 COVID-19 抢救室工作的医护人员，年龄在 21 岁至 63 岁之间。研究结果表明，大多数医护人员都有创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）的表现，轻者每月偶尔发作一次，重者每月超过 17 次。研究结果表明，应对技巧表现出高度个性化。某些医护人员可能会表现出 "正常 "水平的创伤后应激障碍（PTSD），通过休息、放松和个人时间来有效控制压力，而其他患有不同程度创伤后应激障碍的医护人员则需要专业的治疗帮助来降低自残的风险。本研究强调了在当前流行病的情况下，为医护人员提供有针对性的心理健康援助的迫切需要。

The study examines the effect of health financing using insurance on child undernutrition, employing data from the 2018 Nigerian demographic and health survey. Undernutrition still contributes to child deaths in Nigeria, and health financing with regards to having health insurance, is yet to become a reality for many households. Despite several studies on the determinants of undernutrition, there remains the need for an examination of the effect of health financing, with a focus on health insurance. Using the NDHS, this study examined the effect of health insurance on the probability of child stunting and wasting. A limited dependent variable model was estimated using the maximum likelihood estimator; capturing urban and rural differentials, and an interaction model. The findings demonstrated a significant reduction in the likelihood of stunting in children both at national level and among rural households with health insurance. However, it significantly reduced the likelihood of wasting in children only among rural households. Not having a health insurance coverage, which was the case for a greater proportion of women, was found to significantly increase stunting, even among educated women; reduce wasting only if a woman is from a rich household; and increase wasting among rural households. Therefore, developing and implementing policies geared towards promoting wider and more inclusive health insurance coverage is important for improving child nutritional status and, consequently, the health status of children.

This paper aims to investigate the moderating influence of the quality of access to internet and digital skills on the factors that influence the intention to use fintech services among the young working population in India. We use the Theory of Planned Behavior to examine the intention to adopt financial technology in a rapidly technologically transformative Indian landscape. We conducted an empirical investigation on 324 young workers in India using the survey method. The TPB model's relevance in an Indian context is validated. Attitude, perceived behavioral control, and subjective norms together accounted for 48.7% of the variation in the intention to use fintech services. The quality of internet access significantly moderated the positive effect of young workers' attitudes on their intention to use fintech. Digital skills significantly moderated the positive effects of attitude and perceived behavioral control on intentions to use fintech services. India is considered a very fast adopter of digital technology. In India, the use of electronic channels in financial service delivery is on the rise. With the wide geographic dispersion and huge population, the quality of internet access and digital skills can influence the intention to use fintech services. There can be vast differences in the behavioral mindset of people in a developing country like India compared to that of a developed one regarding the use and adoption of digital platforms for accessing financial services. Developers and regulators must adopt approaches and policies that consider these behavioral factors. This paper examines the Theory of Planned Behaviour in the context of a rapidly transforming behavioural context in India with the adoption of technology-based financial services. The importance of quality internet access and digital skills as factors moderating the adoption of technology is examined in this paper, unlike many previous studies.
本文旨在研究互联网接入质量和数字技能对印度年轻工作人口使用金融科技服务意向的影响因素的调节作用。我们运用计划行为理论（Theory of Planned Behavior）研究了在技术快速变革的印度环境中采用金融科技的意向。我们采用调查法对印度的 324 名青年工人进行了实证调查。TPB模型在印度环境中的相关性得到了验证。在使用金融科技服务的意向中，态度、感知行为控制和主观规范共占 48.7% 的差异。互联网接入质量在很大程度上调节了青年工人的态度对其使用金融科技意向的积极影响。数字技能在很大程度上调节了态度和感知行为控制对使用金融科技服务意愿的积极影响。印度被认为是数字技术应用非常迅速的国家。在印度，电子渠道在金融服务中的使用呈上升趋势。印度地域广阔，人口众多，互联网接入质量和数字技能会影响使用金融科技服务的意愿。在使用和采用数字平台获取金融服务方面，印度这样的发展中国家与发达国家的人们在行为心态上可能存在巨大差异。开发者和监管者必须采取考虑这些行为因素的方法和政策。本文在印度采用基于技术的金融服务这一迅速转变的行为背景下研究了计划行为理论。与以往的许多研究不同，本文研究了优质互联网接入和数字技能作为调节技术采用的因素的重要性。

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between organizational citizenship behavior and psychological well-being and assess the moderating and mediating effects of emotional intelligence (EI) on the psychological well-being of Information Technology-enabled employees in Hyderabad. Survey research with quantitative study methodology was applied, and a structured questionnaire was used to collect the data. The effects of organizational citizenship behavior and emotional intelligence on psychological well-being of IT-enabled employees were assessed. The mediating and moderating effects of emotional intelligence on the relationship between organizational citizenship behavior and psychological well-being were assessed. The assessed Cronbach’s alpha coefficient, which ranged from 0.79 to 0.91, indicates the questionnaire maintained its reliability and internal consistency. The SEM analysis results revealed excellent model fit, and the impact of OCB and EI on psychological well-being was statistically significant (p<0.001) on the IT-enabled industry employees. Furthermore, EI partially mediated psychological well-being through the OCB of information technology employees. The slope analysis reveals that emotional intelligence strengthens the positive association between the OCB and the PWB of IT-enabled sector employees. EI and OCB enhance PWB and employee performance. The study's conclusions can be utilized to create employee promotion plans for OCB and EI, which have several significant ramifications for IT companies. Therefore, the organizations should try to enhance the EI and OCB of employees and develop a supportive culture within the organizations. There are some subjectivity and cultural issues that were elaborated at the end.

This study explores the influence of emotions on sustaining purchase intentions through an online store in Indonesia. Application penetration in the mobile ecosystem has become popular as an online-to-offline (O2O) service that applies the convenience of online services to offline reality. Therefore, this study aims to develop a comprehensive model of online store image based on the continuous usage intention of consumers in online-to-offline meal applications. This study uses Pleasure, Arousal, and Dominance (PAD) theory as an adapted model of the organism stimuli, and response framework. The design of the study uses a quantitative research approach and adapts research instruments from previous research. This study focuses on five variables. It consists of Online Store Image, Pleasure, Arousal, Dominance, and continuous purchasing—the indicators obtained from previous studies. This study collected data in 2023, when the World Health Organization (WHO) revoked COVID-19 status. There are 260 responses collected. The result indicates that online store image affects pleasure, arousal, and dominance, as the emotions stimulated by this study show that pleasure and dominance emotions positively and significantly impact continuous purchase intention. The study’s practical implication suggests that the potential for boosting sustained purchasing intention exists when consumers experience feelings of happiness and sense of dominance. So, this study suggests the provider must increase their online presence to create an excellent online store’s image. If the online store’s image is good, consumers' pleasure, arousal, and dominance emotions will increase.

This study aimed at investigating the impact of job crafting (cognitive, task, and relational crafting) on the satisfaction of healthcare workers in public hospitals in Lagos, Nigeria. The study utilised data gathered from 725 public healthcare workers in public hospitals using a well-structured 5-point Likert scale questionnaire as the research instrument. The study employed mixed method of data collection, comprising purposive, stratified, and convenience methods of data collection. The research tools employed include Cronbach's Alpha Analysis, Explanatory Factor Analysis, Confirmatory Factor Analysis and Structural Equation Modeling. Findings revealed that job crafting significantly impacted the satisfaction of healthcare workers, with relational crafting having the highest significant impact, followed by cognitive and task crafting. The study concluded that job crafting significantly impacts healthcare workers’ satisfaction and, however, recommends that positive workplace culture be encouraged; emphasis should be placed on encouraging things like work-life balance, inspiring leadership, transparent communication, and employee appreciation, and a good and positive work environment be provided for the healthcare workers to maximise their full potential.

The study concluded that job crafting significantly impacts healthcare workers’ satisfaction and, however, recommends that positive workplace culture be encouraged; emphasis should be placed on encouraging things like work-life balance, inspiring leadership, transparent communication, and employee appreciation, and a good and positive work environment be provided for the healthcare workers to maximise their full potential.","PeriodicalId":36807,"journal":{"name":"Humanities and Social Sciences Letters","volume":"45 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141688689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
The Indonesian language learning method at Junior High School (SMP) Negeri Padangpanjang was generally boring and traditional. A solution is required to create products that are successful, efficient and enjoyable to use in classroom learning activities. A solution is required to make goods that are effective, efficient and entertaining to use in classroom learning activities. The product trial took place at SMP Negeri 3 Padangpanjang. The 4-D development phase was done in this study. During the conceptualization and development phases of this study, junior high school teachers and students were involved. In addition, experts participate in the process of evaluating products. A variety of methods are used including tests, questionnaires, observations and interviews. The main syntax of OMEMPAT is created by the descriptive text mapping learning model with the help of poetry text such as (1) orientation (2) reading and listening to poetry (3) mapping the contents of the descriptive text (4) presenting the results of the descriptive text mapping and (5) reflecting on the learning process. The three criteria of validity, practicability and efficacy were used to assess the quality of the learning model. The descriptive text mapping learning model which is supported by poetry texts needs to be put into practice. Teachers must create learning models that enable students to engage in educational activities while enjoying.

The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between remittances and economic growth in South Africa, using data running from 1970 to 2019. We utilize the ARDL bounds testing approach to explore the relationship between remittances and economic growth, incorporating control variables and addressing structural breaks. Our findings suggest that the structural change in economic growth occurred in 2008 during the global financial crisis, while the break point for remittances emerged in 1997. After taking into consideration the presence of structural breaks, our study found the estimated coefficient for remittances to be statistically significant at the 1% level of significance. The coefficient is negative, indicating that remittances have a negative impact on economic growth. This result is robust to alternative estimators, including the fully modified least squares technique and the impulse response function. Despite employing different estimation methods, the consistent finding of a negative relationship between remittance inflows and economic growth underscores the reliability of our conclusion. Being a recipient of remittances, it is appropriate for a study of this nature to guide policy makers in formulating appropriate policies to benefit from the full impact of remittances, diversify the economy, and reduce reliance on remittance inflows.
