Mindfulness meditation is a technique for regulating attention and emotions, which can help individuals enhance self-awareness and reduce stress. This paper aims at review the positive effects of mindfulness meditation on English learners and teachers, including improving English learning abilities and enhancing motivation, confidence, and enjoyment in English learning. Through systematic literature searches and screening methods from databases such as CNKI, Wan fang, Pub Med, and Web of Science, relevant papers on mindfulness meditation and English learning from the past decade were selected. Their research purposes, methods, innovations, and conclusions were analyzed. This paper specifically explores the literature review on the impact of mindfulness meditation on English learning, summarizing both the theory and practice of mindfulness meditation, and proposing future research directions and suggestions. Mindfulness meditation has a positive impact on English learning and classroom teaching, but its specific effects are influenced by various factors such as the type, duration, and frequency of mindfulness meditation. More empirical research is needed to validate its effects on English learning and to explore the optimal integration methods.

A person's spirituality at work may be described as their understanding and practice of religious beliefs in a manner conducive to and consistent with the job. This allows them to excel professionally while also cultivating healthy relationships with colleagues. Since the university is a gathering place for students and teachers to share knowledge, university employees also play an important role in helping students. If the University's staff and lecturers are to carry out their duties effectively, raise the bar for classroom teaching, and attend to the needs of their students, it is essential that they operate in an atmosphere that is more spiritual. This study aims to investigate the effect of spirituality on productivity in the workplace. In order to measure spirituality at work and job performance, this quantitative research surveyed 100 workers. We analyzed the collected data using SPSS for basic regression. The findings showed a computed t-value of 5.859 at a 0.001 level of significance. Considering that the computed t-value (5.859>1.196) is more than the table t-value and the significance threshold is less than 0.05 (0.001<0.05), it may be concluded that spirituality in the workplace significantly impacts performance. This research contributes to the expanding literature on academic human resource management by illuminating the relationship between spirituality at work and productivity in higher education. The study has practical implications for leaders and managers at other institutions. By creating a more spiritual work environment, students' learning is enhanced because of the increased awareness and support for spirituality in the workplace.

This paper explores the potential impact of paternal absence on women during their childhood by examining literature and contemporary theories. Paternal absence refers to children lacking paternal love and care due to factors such as illegitimate birth, divorce, or death.  In today's society, diverse marriage concepts have led to an increase in single-parent families, resulting in a growing prevalence of paternal absence. This paper comprehensively examines the influence of paternal absence on female self-esteem using theoretical frameworks from psychoanalysis, social learning, social comparison, cognitive development, and attachment. Additionally, it highlights the significance of fathers' presence during childhood in establishing women's sense of competence through Bandura's concept of self-efficacy. The results of the study revealed that the absence of a father figure may exert detrimental effects on women's self-perception, interpersonal bonding, and development of emotional and creative competence.

In today's rapidly developing era, an increasing number of parents hope that their children will have good academic performance and a bright future. Both parental expectations and educational attainment can influence a child's academic level. Excessive expectations can have a negative impact on a child's academic performance, and higher educational attainment can also affect intergenerational expectations. This study is based on data from the China Education Panel Survey (CEPS), using correlation analysis and ANOVA to explore the effects of parental educational expectations and parental educational attainment on the academic performance of adolescents. The results of the study revealed that there is a significant positive correlation between parental expectations and academic performance. However, the impact of parental educational attainment differs between fathers and mothers, with only the mother's educational attainment having an influence on a child's academic performance. We recommend that parents should maintain a moderate level of expectation to ensure that their child's academic performance is at a high level. At the same time, there should be a balance between fathers' and mothers' investment in education.

This study aims to investigate the contributing factors that make returning exchange students’ readjustment in their home culture difficult and lead them to feel reverse culture shock and the coping strategies they make use of to mitigate this reverse culture shock. Using purposive and snowball sampling, the data was gathered through a mixed method approach, including a questionnaire with 16 exchange alumni and a semi structured interview with 7 of them. The results of the study showed that most participants experienced difficulty readjusting due to different reasons, namely the unhealthy comparisons they made between their host and home cultures and the reverse homesickness and alienation they encountered in their home culture. The study also indicated two main coping strategies that students relied on to reduce their reverse culture shock: processing and accepting that they have become different after their exchange and staying in touch with fellow exchange alumni.

This study investigates how personality traits correlate with satisfaction levels in romantic relationships among Psychology majors enrolled at the University of Cebu Main Campus during the Academic Year 2022-2023. Employing a quantitative research approach, a descriptive correlational design was utilized to establish connections between personality traits and levels of relationship satisfaction, enabling prediction and explanation of variable relationships. The research addresses conflicting findings on the influence of personality traits on successful romantic relationships, particularly emphasizing trait similarity versus the "Opposites Attract" notion, alongside considerations of emotionality, maladaptive tendencies, self-esteem, and partner perspectives. Methodological variations in self-report assessments versus multiple-source and observation-based approaches have contributed to inconsistent results in previous investigations.

This study evaluates the validity and reliability of the Dynomight™ MBTI, an innovative adaptation of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), in comparison with the original MBTI. Employing a quantitative research design, the study involved administering both the original MBTI and the Dynomight™ MBTI to participants from the Tulua institution. The primary objective was to assess the criterion concurrent validity and test-retest reliability of the Dynomight™ MBTI over a 6-week period. Results indicated a high degree of correlation between the two instruments across all personality axes, demonstrating the Dynomight™ MBTI's strong alignment with established MBTI constructs. Notably, the Dynomight™ MBTI's expanded categorization system, which includes a borderline category, addresses key critiques of the original MBTI's binary classification system and reliability concerns. The study found that the Dynomight™ MBTI effectively captures the spectrum and fluidity of personality traits, offering a more inclusive and adaptable approach to personality assessment. The study concludes that the Dynomight™ MBTI represents a significant advancement in personality assessment tools, providing valuable insights for personal development, team dynamics, and psychological research.

A person's spirituality in the workplace can be defined as their understanding and practice of religious principles as they pertain to the workplace, with the goal of fostering positive connections with coworkers, increasing productivity, and enhancing overall morale. At the present time, health services are crucial for both health workers and the officers who assist them in performing their tasks. It is imperative that health care providers and those who assist them have a healthy work-life balance, which includes practicing good spirituality both personally and collectively. Finding out how spirituality affects the productivity of healthcare professionals and hospital staff was the primary goal of the study. Using primary data collected from hospital staff, this study was carried out in Annisa Hospital Cikarang, Indonesia. A total of ninety-six people filled out a questionnaire that measured workplace spirituality and employee performance; the methodology was quantitative. Simple regression analysis in SPSS was used to examine the gathered data. The computed t-value is bigger than the table t-value (7.133>1.9855), as the results demonstrated a computed t-value of 7.133 with a significance value of 0.000. Employees' performance at Annisa Hospital is positively and significantly impacted by workplace spirituality, as the significance value is less than 0.05 (0.000<0.05). In order to advance healthcare organisations' human resource management practices, this study's findings shed light on the connection between spirituality in the workplace and employee performance in hospitals. Organisational leaders and managers in the health care sector can benefit practically from this study. All of the hospital's staff can benefit from a more upbeat and productive work atmosphere if spirituality is more recognised and supported in the workplace. This, in turn, will improve patient care.

Infertility and infertility treatment cause great suffering for individuals and couples, particularly when they lack psychosocial support and resilience. The purpose of the study was to examine the association between the role of psychosocial support and resilience in 152 infertility patients at 2 hospitals in North Vietnam. Participants completed the Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) and The Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS). The findings demonstrated that resilience in infertility patients, both generally and specifically in women, was significantly predicted by support from friends and family. Meanwhile, psychosocial support sources have no effect on resilience in infertile men. The findings highlight the importance of psychosocial support for people diagnosed with infertility in the Vietnamese cultural context.
