Any country's duty to protect women and men begins with protecting the body from sexual assault, which has been criminalised by the Jordanian Penal Code through explicit provisions criminalising a number of crimes, such as rape when the victim is female only, molestation when the victim is male or female, or inappropriate flirtation in public or in private. The Jordanian Penal Code did not address verbal or gesture sexual harassment. Would traditional provisions criminalise the same or need explicit legal measures be made? In addition, what is the criterion for the existence or non-existence of sexual harassment, which has been spreading largely in the Jordanian community? Sexual harassment is mostly represented by sexual expressions that encroach on the dignity of the female or male, but the victim is mostly a female, half of the community, who suffers psychological and physical damage from this crime. We reached several results and recommendations that the Jordanian Penal Code does not specifically state about sexual harassment, but the laws of criminalization may be a reference. In actuality, sexual harassment is broader than the Jordanian Penal Code, including simple catcalls, inappropriate comments, and minor events that are judged by the person and their psychological impact. I urge adding article 306 et al. to the Jordanian Penal Code to specifically criminalise sexual harassment.
任何国家保护妇女和男子的责任首先是保护身体免受性侵犯,约旦《刑法》通过明确规定将一些罪行定为刑事犯罪,例如当受害者只有女性时的强奸,当受害者是男性或女性时的骚扰,或在公开或私下不适当的调情。约旦刑法没有规定口头或手势性骚扰。传统的条款是否会将这种行为定为刑事犯罪,还是需要制定明确的法律措施?此外,在约旦社会普遍存在的性骚扰的存在或不存在的标准是什么?性骚扰主要表现为侵犯女性或男性尊严的性表达,但受害者大多是女性,占社区的一半,她们遭受了心理和身体上的伤害。我们得出了一些结论和建议,约旦刑法没有明确规定性骚扰,但刑事定罪法可能是一个参考。实际上,性骚扰的范围比约旦刑法更广,包括简单的嘘声、不恰当的评论和由个人判断的小事件及其心理影响。我敦促在《约旦刑法典》中增加第306条等条款,明确将性骚扰定为刑事犯罪。

Work behavior in a company is influenced by several factors, including organizational culture, emotional intelligence, and professional attitude. Organizational culture is essentially a system of general values. Emotional intelligence is the ability to understand and control emotions. Professional is a meaning that refers to a designation of a person who holds a profession and a designation about a person's appearance in realizing performance following his profession. The purpose of this research is to determine the relationship between organizational culture and word behavior, the relationship between emotional intelligence and work behavior, and the relationship between professional attitude and work behavior. This research was conducted at PDAM Tirta Medal, Sumedang, with 132 employees, and was taken randomly. The research data analysis technique is a descriptive method and qualitative approach. The results showed a relationship between organizational culture and work behavior, emotional intelligence and work behavior, and professional attitudes and work behavior.
公司的工作行为受多种因素的影响,包括组织文化、情商和职业态度。组织文化本质上是一个价值体系。情商是一种理解和控制情绪的能力。专业是指对从事某一职业的人的一种称谓,是指对从事某一职业的人的一种称谓,是对从事某一职业的人在实现其业绩时的一种外貌的称谓。本研究的目的是确定组织文化与言语行为的关系、情绪智力与工作行为的关系、职业态度与工作行为的关系。本研究是在Sumedang的PDAM Tirta Medal,随机抽取132名员工进行的。研究数据分析技术是一种描述性方法和定性方法。结果表明,组织文化与工作行为、情绪智力与工作行为、职业态度与工作行为之间存在显著的关系。

Precisely December 2019, the pandemic or Corona virus 2019 was first identified in the city of Wuhan in China. Since then, more than 100 million people have been detected by the virus, which WHO states are because it has spread to more than 215 countries. Covid has increased its impact on health and all music business and education, so it has impacted the decline of musical activity. During the pandemic, various studies have been carried out, but few have studied music communication which can be categorized as education. This was a qualitative study using secondary data, especially from books and international journal articles that discussed music and pandemic issues. There are four types of data that have been successfully collected, including data on physical benefits, data on music communication, the benefits of criticism during a pandemic, and also the role of music in preventing pandemics. I then examine the data and discuss the results where we see that music has a huge opportunity to continue despite a pandemic. Because in this revolutionary era, music can be enjoyed without having to interact, like on stage and in concerts in buildings because of the technological era people who enjoy music. Finally, it can concluded that the music is played to socialize the dangers of the pandemic and prevention efforts. The use of music to socialize and raise public awareness of the pandemic is very effective here. One example is what government and other world bodies in Vietnam did with a song themed "Ghen Cô Vy".
恰好在2019年12月,2019冠状病毒大流行首次在中国武汉市被发现。从那时起,已有超过1亿人被该病毒检测到,世卫组织称这是因为它已经传播到超过215个国家。新冠疫情加大了对健康、所有音乐业务和教育的影响,因此影响了音乐活动的减少。在大流行期间,进行了各种研究,但很少有研究可以归类为教育的音乐传播。这是一项定性研究,使用了二手数据,特别是来自讨论音乐和流行病问题的书籍和国际期刊文章。已成功收集的数据有四种类型,包括关于身体益处的数据、关于音乐传播的数据、流行病期间批评的益处以及音乐在预防流行病方面的作用。然后,我检查了数据并讨论了结果,我们发现尽管流行,音乐仍有很大的机会继续发展。因为在这个革命性的时代,音乐可以在没有互动的情况下享受,就像在舞台上,在音乐厅里,因为科技时代人们喜欢音乐。最后,它可以得出结论,播放音乐是为了使流行病的危险和预防工作社会化。在这里,利用音乐进行社交和提高公众对疫情的认识是非常有效的。其中一个例子是越南政府和其他世界机构以“Ghen Cô Vy”为主题的歌曲。

Taking booster vaccines plays a critical role to enhance the effectiveness of vaccine programs and their positive externalities to community health. This study treats the booster vaccine as a value and expands the theory of planned behaviour to examine determinants of behaviours to take that value among the public. Mixed research methods are used in this study. While qualitative data from the in-depth interviews support the identification of new themes serving the development of hypotheses and measurement scales, quantitative data from 771 respondents from all walks of life are employed to provide generalized findings. The estimation results indicate five factors that drive the intention to take the booster vaccine shots, including perceived behavioural control, subjective norms, switching costs, communication quality and health concern. More interestingly, results from another follow-up survey about their actual behaviour imply that given the existing intention, those who demonstrate good objective knowledge about booster vaccines are more likely to take the booster shot in practice. These findings draw important implications for policymakers to encourage the behaviour of taking booster vaccines.
接种加强疫苗对提高疫苗计划的有效性及其对社区卫生的积极外部性起着至关重要的作用。本研究将加强疫苗视为一种价值,并扩展了计划行为理论,以检查公众中采取该价值的行为决定因素。本研究采用混合研究方法。虽然深度访谈的定性数据支持新主题的识别,服务于假设和测量量表的发展,但来自各行各业的771名受访者的定量数据被用来提供广义的发现。估计结果表明,有五个因素促使人们有意接种加强疫苗,包括感知到的行为控制、主观规范、转换成本、通信质量和健康问题。更有趣的是,另一项关于他们实际行为的后续调查结果表明,考虑到现有的意图,那些对加强疫苗有良好客观认识的人更有可能在实践中接种加强疫苗。这些发现对政策制定者鼓励接种加强疫苗的行为具有重要意义。

Plastic waste in oceans will threaten of marine biota. There is a very high degree of plastic pollution in Indonesia, however the distribution of microplastic contamination in seafood, particularly that ingested by the general populace as a daily meal from seas, is quite low. The purpose of this investigation is to map the distribution of microplastic contamination in blood clams (Anadara granosa) throughout the South Sulawesi coast. Observational study employing a spatial analysis exploratory design. Blood clams (Anadara granosa) and information on wind, currents, and tides are used to map the distribution of microplastic pollution. The Kriging model was used for their geographical analysis. Purposive sampling was used to collect a total of 25 samples of blood clams (Anadara granosa) from offshore locations, residential waterways, mangrove ecosystems, rivers, and river estuaries. The results showed that the highest distribution of microplastic contamination was found in mangrove ecosystem areas and residential waters, while the lowest was found in river areas. Blood clams (Anadara granosa) have high levels of microplastic contamination because of sources of plastic pollution that come from waste disposal activities. It became stuck in the fisheries and mangrove ecosystems along the coast. Oceanography has an impact on how currents and winds migrate from the northeast (where mangrove habitats are) to the north (where residential waters are), carrying microplastic particles. Provision of waste management facilities by the local government and using the depuration method to eliminate microplastics in blood clams (Anadara granosa) consumed by the community needs to be done to reduce the impact on ecology and health.
海洋中的塑料垃圾将威胁到海洋生物群。印度尼西亚的塑料污染程度非常高,然而,微塑料污染在海鲜中的分布,特别是普通民众每天从海洋中摄取的食物,相当低。本调查的目的是绘制整个南苏拉威西海岸血蛤(Anadara granosa)中微塑料污染的分布图。采用空间分析探索性设计的观察性研究。血蛤(Anadara granosa)和有关风、水流和潮汐的信息被用来绘制微塑料污染的分布图。克里格模型被用于他们的地理分析。采用有目的抽样方法,从近海地点、居民水道、红树林生态系统、河流和河口共收集了25份血蛤(Anadara granosa)样本。结果表明,微塑料污染在红树林生态系统区和居民水域分布最高,在河流区分布最低。由于来自废物处理活动的塑料污染源,血蛤(Anadara granosa)的微塑料污染水平很高。它被困在沿海的渔业和红树林生态系统中。海洋学影响着洋流和风如何从东北(红树林栖息地所在)向北(居民区所在)迁移,并携带着微塑料颗粒。需要由地方政府提供废物管理设施,并使用净化方法消除社区消费的血蛤(Anadara granosa)中的微塑料,以减少对生态和健康的影响。

The current study seeks to investigate students’ level of motivation to speak in English among Jordanian EFL undergraduate in Jerash University, Jordan. The paper is important in finding out students’ level of motivation to speak English and finding ways to enhance their speaking. Study sample consists of 351 students and five lecturers. The questionnaire adopted from Gardner (1985) with 32 items to determine students’ level of motivation. 35 students and 5 lecturers sat for interviews. The results show that 86.1% of respondents have low level of motivation to speak English and do not perceive themselves to be motivated to speak. Qualitative results suggested having collaboration between lecturers, students and their parents as all of them share the responsibility to change the approach of teaching from teacher-centered to student-centered approaches. Future researchers are encouraged to use methods in investigating students’ level of motivation such as learning diary in order to gather more accurate data.
本研究旨在调查约旦杰拉什大学的约旦籍英语本科生的英语口语动机水平。本文对了解学生说英语的动机水平,找到提高学生说英语的方法具有重要意义。研究样本包括351名学生和5名讲师。采用Gardner(1985)的问卷,共有32个项目来确定学生的动机水平。35名学生和5名讲师参加了面试。结果显示,86.1%的受访者说英语的动机水平较低,不认为自己有说英语的动机。定性结果表明,教师、学生和家长之间应该合作,因为他们都有责任将教学方法从以教师为中心转变为以学生为中心。为了收集更准确的数据,鼓励未来的研究者使用诸如学习日记之类的方法来调查学生的动机水平。

The Degree of Administrators’ Involvement in Change Management at Jordanian Universities over the COVID-19 Pandemic 新冠肺炎大流行期间约旦大学管理人员参与变革管理的程度
Q2 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-06-02 DOI: 10.59670/jns.v34i.1510

This study aimed to identify the degree to which administrators of Jordanian universities are involved in change management (comprising planning, decision-making, organization, and guidance) over the COVID-19 pandemic and as a function of gender, qualification, years of experience, and specialization. To this end, the descriptive-analytical method was used, where a questionnaire consisting of 45 items distributed to 4 domains was developed. The study population included all administrators (college deans, heads of academic departments, and managers of administrative units) of the public and private Jordanian universities. The total number of participants was 1685 administrators, among whom 321 (19 percent) were selected as the sample group. The sample group worked in three public universities (Yarmouk University, University of Sciences and Technology, and Al Al-Bayt University), and three private universities (Jadara University, Irbid Private University, Jerash Private University) in the academic year 2020-2021. Results showed that there exist statistically no significant differences in the means of responses in relation to administrators’ involvement in change management at Jordanian universities as a function of gender and in all domains, and as a function of specialization in the domains of change in planning and change in decision-making. However, there do exist statistically significant differences in the domains of change in planning and change in decision-making in favor of higher education studies. There are also significant differences in terms of years of experience in the domains of change in planning, change in decision-making, and change in organization in favor of those with many and average years of experience. Also there are significant differences in terms of specialization in the domains of change in planning and change in guidance, with natural sciences showing higher degrees.
本研究旨在确定约旦大学管理人员在COVID-19大流行期间参与变革管理(包括规划、决策、组织和指导)的程度,以及性别、学历、经验年数和专业化程度。为此,采用描述性分析方法,编制了一份由45个项目组成的问卷,分布在4个领域。研究对象包括约旦公立和私立大学的所有行政人员(学院院长、学术部门负责人和行政单位经理)。共有1685名管理人员参加,其中321名(19%)被选为样本组。样本组在2020-2021学年在三所公立大学(耶尔穆克大学、科技大学和Al Al- bayt大学)和三所私立大学(贾达拉大学、伊尔比德私立大学、杰拉什私立大学)工作。结果表明,约旦大学行政人员参与变革管理的反应方式在统计上没有显著差异,这与性别和所有领域有关,也与规划变革和决策变革领域的专业化有关。然而,在有利于高等教育研究的规划变化和决策变化领域,确实存在统计学上显著的差异。在计划变化、决策变化和组织变化领域的经验年数方面也存在显著差异,这有利于那些具有多年和平均经验的人。在规划变化和指导变化领域的专业化程度也存在显著差异,自然科学表现出更高的程度。

The city of Palembang is divided by the Musi River which is the longest river in Indonesia where this river divides the city of Palembang into two parts, namely across the upstream and across downstream. This river has an overall length of + 700 km and a navigable + 450 km making the Musi River an important role in supporting the economy of the people of Palembang City through river transportation. Ships of large and small sizes can sail on this river because of its average depth of + 8 meters and a maximum width of + 250 meters. In the city of Palembang, there are also several river ports including the Pier 16 Ilir River Port of Palembang which serves several means of transportation for inland water transportation such as jukung boats, speed boats, long boats, and armrests. Where inland water transportation in the city of Palembang has a very important role in supporting the wheels of regional development, the 16 Ilir pier is also one of the piers that have an important role in supporting the economy of the people of Palembang. This is due to the pier’s strategic location, which is adjacent to the 16 Ilir market. The management of the wharf has not been maximized because the elements of activities at the pier are still not following Government Regulation No. 61 of 2009 and there is no complete facility at the Pier 16 Ilir River Port.
巨港市被印度尼西亚最长的河流Musi河分割,这条河将巨港市分为两部分,即上游和下游。这条河的总长度为700公里,通航长度为450公里,使木西河通过河流运输在支持巨港市人民的经济方面发挥了重要作用。这条河的平均深度为8米,最大宽度为250米,大大小小的船只都可以在这条河上航行。在巨港市,也有几个内河港口,包括巨港16号码头伊利尔内河港口,它为内河运输提供了几种交通工具,如巨港船、快艇、长船和扶手。巨港市的内河运输在支撑区域发展的车轮方面发挥着非常重要的作用,16 Ilir码头也是支撑巨港人民经济的重要码头之一。这是由于码头的战略位置,毗邻16英尺的市场。码头的管理没有得到最大化,因为码头的活动要素仍然没有遵循2009年第61号政府法规,并且在16号码头伊利尔河港没有完整的设施。

Training and development programs are crucial for enhancing employee performance in organizations, including in Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka (UTeM). However, the effectiveness of these programs depends on several factors. Therefore, this study aims to identify the factors that influence the effectiveness of training, resilience factor and development towards employee performance. The study employed a quantitative research approach, and data were collected through a survey questionnaire distributed to 132 employees. The data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics.The findings of this study revealed that employee readiness, the effectiveness of speaker, training content, training methods, and training evaluation are significant factors that influence the effectiveness of training and development on employee performance. Employee readiness, including motivation, attitudes, and readiness to learn, significantly affects the effectiveness of training and development programs. Furthermore, training content and methods, such as relevance, applicability, and interactivity, significantly impact employee performance and resilience factor. Finally, training evaluation, including feedback and assessment, significantly contributes to the effectiveness of training and development programs.In conclusion, this study suggests that UTeM should consider these factors when designing and implementing training, resilience factor and development programs to enhance employee performance. By understanding these factors, UTeM can create effective training and development programs that meet the needs of its employees and ultimately improve their performance.
