This research is used as material for the development of political science and fiqh siyasah. Keywords: Personality; behavior; maslahah al-ammah; Pandhalungan; NU

Expanding Observability via Human-Machine Cooperation

We ask how to use machine learning to expand observability, which presently depends on human learning that informs conceivability. The issue is engaged by considering the question of correspondence between conceived observability counterfactuals and observable, yet so far unobserved or unconceived, states of affairs. A possible answer lies in importing out of reference frame content which could provide means for conceiving further observability counterfactuals. They allow us to define high-fidelity observability, increasing the level of correspondence in question. To achieve high-fidelity observability, we propose to use generative machine learning models as the providers of the out of reference frame content. From an applied point of view, such a role of generative machine learning models shows an emerging dimension of human-machine cooperation.

The Mediation Role of OCB on the Effect of the Big Five Personality on Nurse Performance

OCB behavior has an important role in organizational effectiveness because OCB can improve organizational performance. The purpose of this study is to determine and examine the effect of the big five personalities on job performance with OCB as a mediating variable for nurses at RSUD dr. Soedirman, Kebumen. The sample in this study are 155 nurses. The analysis in this study uses the Partial Least Square Structural Equation Model (PLS-SEM) analysis. The results of the analysis show that the dimensions of the big five personalities, namely extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness to experience have a positive and significant effect on OCB; the dimensions of extraversion, conscientiousness, and openness to experience have a positive and significant effect on job performance, while the dimensions of agreeableness and neuroticism do not affect job performance; OCB has a positive and significant effect on job performance; and OCB is able to mediate the effect of agreeableness, conscientiousness, and openness to experience on job performance, and OCB can not mediate the effect of extraversion and neuroticism on job performance.

Relationship between Personality Traits and Nutrition Package Feeding Behaviors of Infant Caregivers in Remote Rural Areas of Sichuan Province

Objective To analyze the personality traits and nutrition package feeding behaviors of infant caregivers in remote rural areas of Sichuan province and explore the relationship between them. Methods A multi-stage random cluster sampling method was employed to select the infants of 6-24 months old and their caregivers in the remote rural areas of Sichuan province.A structured questionnaire was designed to collect the basic characteristics of infants and their caregivers,as well as the feeding behaviors of the caregivers.The Ten-Item Personality Inventory in China was used to evaluate the caregivers' personality traits in five dimensions:extraversion,agreeableness,conscientiousness,emotional stability,and openness.Multivariate Logistic regression was adopted to analyze the relationship between personality traits and nutrition package feeding behaviors of infant caregivers. Results A total of 895 pairs of infants and their caregivers were investigated.The caregivers showed the average scores of 9.01±2.64,10.60±1.99,9.41±2.06,9.01±2.38,and 8.57±2.29 in the dimensions of extraversion,agreeableness,conscientiousness,emotional stability,and openness,respectively.The effective feeding rate of nutrition package was 53.3% (477/895).The results of regression analysis showed that under the premise of controlling for other factors,the caregiver's conscientious personality (OR=1.08,95%CI=1.004-1.153,P=0.038) was the protective factor for the effective feeding of nutrition package. Conclusion The feeding behavior of infant caregivers in the remote rural areas of Sichuan province remains to be improved,and the caregivers with high conscientious personality are more likely to feed their infants effectively.

Pancasila Student Profiles in Science Lessons and Potential for Strengthening by Developing PjBL-Based E-Modules

This study aims to find out class VII students’ profiles of Pancasila abilities of MTs SA Miftahul Huda Bumijawa. The dimensions of the meticulous Pancasila student profiles include four dimensions, namely critical reasoning, creativity, mutual cooperation, and independence. This type of research is a qualitative descriptive. Data collection instrument were observation and interview guidelines. Based on research data, the results showed that the ability of students to the Pancasila student profiles were still very low. 70% of students were in category of very low and another 30% were in category of low on the critical reasoning dimension. 57% of the students were in category of very low and another 43% were in category of low on the independent dimension. Overall students where in category of very low on the dimensions creative and mutual cooperation dimensions. It indicates that the applied learning media and learning models have not been able to strengthen Pancasila student profiles. The Integrated Science learning process still uses conventional methods and rarely does practicum or projects. The media used is still limited to textual. One of the potential solutions in order to strengthen the Pancasila student profiles are to develop an e-module based PjBL.

Occupational Stress and Personality in Medical Doctors from Romania.

Occupational stress amongst doctors has been intensively studied as doctors are exposed to several stress factors daily. The purpose of this study was to investigate if there are associations between personality dimensions and the factors that generate stress at work. We conducted a cross-sectional study of 280 medical doctors from Romania between February 2021 and September 2021 who were evaluated using the DECAS and ASSET Scales. Our results showed that the agreeableness and emotional stability dimensions of personality, according to the Big Five model, were statistically associated with work relationships (A p < 0.0001; ES p = 0.0005), work-life balance (A p = 0.008; ES p = 0.01), overload (A p = 0.01; ES p = 0.001), job security (A p < 0.0001; ES p = 0.002), job control (A p = 0.001; ES p = 0.009), resources and communication (A p = 0.0002; ES p < 0.0001), and job conditions (A p = 0.005; ES p = 0.03). The conscientiousness dimension was statistically associated with job control (p = 0.02). Doctors from different specialties experienced stress differently, with psychiatrists and doctors from preclinical specialties reporting the lowest levels of stress. Internists and surgeons reported higher levels of stress. This study showed that the dimensions of agreeableness and emotional stability were both associated with variables indicative of the level of stress felt at work.

Regional dimension of international environmental cooperation: the European Union environmental policy and its relations with its neighbors in the case of Russia

This article aims to examine factors influencing the development of international environmental cooperation and the roles of particular actors participating in environmental cooperation. In general, the majority of international actors agree with the importance of environmental protection but demonstrate different visions in terms of necessary measures. The final result depends on their capability to find common ground. It is assumed that the EU, with its strong environmental policy, realizes the importance of transborder coordination of environmental measures and tries to promote environmental cooperation. Russia was a serious challenge to the EU in terms of environmental security due to its geographic proximity, its severe environmental problems, and its harmful influence over environmental situation in the EU member states. The EU policy towards Russia demonstrates how the EU promotes environmental cooperation and ensures improvement of the environmental situation in the neighboring states. This paper will answer the following research questions: what factors determine the motivation of international actors participating in environmental cooperation; how the EU environmental traditions and decision-making procedures influence its external environmental activities; and how the EU tries to influence Russian environmental policy.

National opposition parties within the inter-parliamentary conference on stability, economic coordination and governance in the EU

ABSTRACT While the institutional dimension of inter-parliamentary cooperation has been the subject of intense research, much less is known about the involvement of partisan actors, and more specifically of members of opposition parties. This article aims to bridge this gap by looking at the composition of parliamentary delegations to the meetings of the inter-parliamentary conference on stability, economic coordination and governance in the EU (so-called ‘Article 13 Conference’, established by Art. 13 of the Fiscal Compact in 2012). It focuses on the involvement and attitude of opposition parties, in order to verify whether they take part to inter-parliamentary cooperation and with which approach.

Electronic Media and Online Parent-Teacher Cooperation

The paper focuses on pedagogical theory and practice, which was brought to the fore about a year ago in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic. The authors deal particularly with the implementation of electronic media into family-school cooperation. The paper presents mainly the views and theories of authors from abroad, where the issue is more researched than in Slovakia. These are maintained by selected empirical data obtained by the authors during the pedagogical practice by means of the research carried out during the first lockdown in Slovakia (2020). We obtained the results by providing an online questionnaire. The research sample consisted of teachers at the primary level of education and parents of primary school pupils. It can be observed that traditional face-to-face ways of communication are still favoured among parents and teachers and that various barriers determine the so-called e-nvolvement of parents in parent-teacher cooperation. Another dimension of family-school cooperation is represented by an insufficient preparation of both parents and teachers.

The Mediating Role of Resilience and Personality Traits in the Relationship between Social Isolation and Psychological Well-Being in the COVID-19 Pandemic

The present study investigates the mediating role of psychological resilience and personality traits in the relationship between the social isolation process implemented during the pandemic period and the psychological well-being of individuals. The predictive correlational model based on the relational survey method, one of the quantitative research methods, was used in the study. The study participants consisted of 238 people through the convenient sampling model, 66 men and 172 women. Personal Information Form, Social Isolation subtest of Nottingham Health Profile Scale, short form of the Psychological Resilience Scale, Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-Being Scale and short form of the Five-Factor Personality Scale were used as data collection tools in the study. While determining the mediating effects in the data analysis, a regression analysis based on the bootstrap method was performed with the Process Macro. As a result of the research, it was found that resilience mediated the relationship between the perception of social isolation and psychological well-being. When the mediating effect of personality dimensions was examined, it was found that the mediating effect of conscientiousness, neuroticism, and extraversion dimensions were significant. In contrast, the mediating effects of openness to experience and agreeableness dimensions were not statistically significant.

BIM application and collaboration in construction projects: a perspective of the Chinese construction market

Although building information modelling (BIM) is endowed with the potential for collaboration, the nature of the relationship between BIM application and collaboration has not been well-elaborated. This research classifies collaboration into the two dimensions of cooperation and coordination and empirically tests a model to understand not only the effect of BIM application on collaboration in construction projects but also the moderating effects of fairness perception and contract specificity. Using 296 samples from the Chinese construction industry, this research reveals the existence of a positive relationship between BIM application and collaboration. In addition, fairness perception weakens the relationship between BIM application and both collaboration dimensions of cooperation and coordination, while contract specificity strengthens the effect of BIM application on the coordination dimension only. These findings offer new insights through a nuanced understanding of the nature of the relationship between BIM application and collaboration, providing useful guidance for BIM application in the construction industry.

Options for Ensuring Command and Control Arrangements for European Union Operations – The Dimension of Cooperation with NATO –

"The operational dynamics associated with the development of European security and defence cooperation has undergone significant developments in recent years, reflected in the European Union’s numerous operational commitments. In this context, the issue of developing command and control arrangements to support an ever-expanding operational agenda has been a constant concern. We can talk about structuring a model used by the European Union in which there are a number of options that this organisation can use in structuring its own operations. In this inventory, the conduct of EU operations using NATO means and capabilities was the approach initially addressed, which continues to be used in the context of the two organisations’ commitments in the Balkans. In addition to the operational aspects, the use of this cooperation framework has allowed the deepening of the NATO-EU Strategic Partnership, with a positive impact on strengthening European and Euro-Atlantic security."

Temperament and character differences in psychopathic and non-psychopathic antisocial adolescents

The present study tested the possibility of distinguishing between different types of antisocial adolescents based on psychopathic characteristics, and the differences between antisocial adolescents of different ages and subtypes in relation to the Cloninger's personality dimension. The sample included 101 antisocial male adolescents, divided into two age groups (71 respondents in the 13-17 age group and 30 in the 18-25 age group). After conducting model-based cluster analyses, non-psychopathic type (without pronounced signs of psychopathy) and psychopathic type (with pronounced antisocial, lifestyle and interpersonal facet) (Hare’s model) were singled out in the whole sample. Within the psychopathic type, in comparison with juveniles, older adolescents showed a significantly lower expression of character dimensions of Self-directedness and Cooperativeness, which are key in determining all personality disorders. Within the group of juvenile offenders, members of the two subtypes did not differ significantly in temperament and character, which indicates that juveniles are in the process of personality development, especially when it comes to their character, so they are more susceptible to treatment and their outcomes are uncertain. The results suggest that the inflation of psychopathic scores may occur in juveniles due to the identification of developmental features of adolescence (impulsivity, immaturity) as psychopathic, which implies the need to apply basic personality models in the assessment of antisocial adolescent.

Cannabis consumption and prosociality

The existing literature largely focuses on health risks and other pharmacodynamics of using cannabis, with fewer investigations of other normative psychological effects from consumption among otherwise healthy people. We measured several basic constructs of social psychology corresponding to the concept of prosociality among 146 healthy young adults between 18 and 25 years (M = 18.9, SD = 1.4) with varying detectable levels of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in their urine, controlling for participant’s sex, age, ethnicity, and childhood socio-economic status. Compared to THC-free individuals, cannabis users scored higher than non-users on validated measures of Prosocial Behaviors (d = .34, p = .04), the Empathy Quotient (d = .36, p < .01), Moral Harmlessness (d = .76, p < .01) and Moral Fairness (d = .49, p < .01), but exhibited a lower sense of Ingroup Loyalty (d = .33, p = .04). Relative to THC-free, same-sex individuals, female cannabis users scored significantly higher on measurements of Aggression (ds = .65 and .57, ps < .05) and male users scored higher on the Agreeableness dimension of personality (d = .91, p < .01).. Linear associations were found between the recency of last cannabis usage and the Prosocial Behaviors, Empathy Quotient, Moral Harmlessness, Moral Fairness and Agreeableness personality scores (rs from − .24 to .38, ps < .05). The findings suggest cannabis usage is associated with an increased sense of prosociality and prioritization of humanitarian behaviors that declines with time following cannabis consumption. Further research should focus on heterogeneity in the effects of cannabis consumption across users.

Correlated expression of the body, face, and voice during character portrayal in actors

Actors are required to engage in multimodal modulations of their body, face, and voice in order to create a holistic portrayal of a character during performance. We present here the first trimodal analysis, to our knowledge, of the process of character portrayal in professional actors. The actors portrayed a series of stock characters (e.g., king, bully) that were organized according to a predictive scheme based on the two orthogonal personality dimensions of assertiveness and cooperativeness. We used 3D motion capture technology to analyze the relative expansion/contraction of 6 body segments across the head, torso, arms, and hands. We compared this with previous results for these portrayals for 4 segments of facial expression and the vocal parameters of pitch and loudness. The results demonstrated significant cross-modal correlations for character assertiveness (but not cooperativeness), as manifested collectively in a straightening of the head and torso, expansion of the arms and hands, lowering of the jaw, and a rise in vocal pitch and loudness. These results demonstrate what communication theorists refer to as “multichannel reinforcement”. We discuss this reinforcement in light of both acting theories and theories of human communication more generally.

Emergency care nurses' perceived self-competence in palliative care and its predictors: A cross-sectional study.

The aim of this study is to describe the prevalence of perceived self-competence in palliative care among emergency care nurses and explore its predictors. Emergency care nurses have a responsibility to develop palliative care competence to enhance the quality of life of dying patients and their families in the emergency department. With a convenience sample, a cross-sectional study was conducted among 415 emergency care nurses from 22 hospitals in China. Descriptive analysis, Spearman correlation analysis and multivariate linear stepwise regression were performed. Variables including marital status (single), emergency department not implementing palliative care, no palliative care training and true cooperation dimension were selected as independent predictors and explained 19.9% of variation in the regression model. Interventions to improve healthy work environments, offering palliative care training, advocating for policies in palliative care and offering support to unmarried nurses can advance nurses' palliative care competence. This is the first study of emergency care nurses in China aimed at identifying predictors associated with palliative care self-competence. It is significant in that palliative care training and a cooperative work environment are required to encourage the development of palliative care.

Regional Dimensions of BRICS Cooperation

Since the beginning, BRICS has been viewed as an element of global governance system. Recently, however, it became necessary to adapt the BRICS format to the new challenges of the world system, not only at the global, but also at the regional levels, as a result of which not only global cooperation mechanisms, but also regional ones, were involved in the activities of the BRICS. BRICS-initiated regional outreach practices and “BRICS+” format are aimed at expanding partnerships, the socalled “circle of friends” of the BRICS, both within the BRICS subregions and beyond. These partners include as national states, as regional organizations. Both formats are focused on reforming the global fi nancial and economic system and the formation of a polycentric world order based on the principles of pluralism and diversity, involving not only developed but also developing countries of the “Global South” in the global governance system. The purpose of this article is to consider various approaches to the study of the BRICS from the standpoint of the theories of “new” and “comparative” regionalism and to assess the prospects for regional interaction of the BRICS countries at the level of subregional, interregional and transregional ties.

The role of customer personality in premium banking services

This paper examines the effects of customer personality, trust, and satisfaction on customer loyalty in premium banking services. Based on a survey of 210 high-net-worth premium banking customers, the study found that the customer personality dimensions of conscientiousness, extroversion, and agreeableness affected trust, while extroversion affected satisfaction. Trust displayed a significant influence on both satisfaction and customer loyalty, while satisfaction partially mediated the effect on customer loyalty via trust. The findings can help managers of affluent banking services understand the important dimensions of customer personality in relational exchanges and develop relevant relationship management strategies to deliver satisfaction and enhance customer loyalty.

A Meta-Analysis of Teachers’ Job Burnout and Big Five Personality Traits

IntroductionTo explore the relationship between teachers’ job burnout and big five personality traits through meta-analysis.MethodsChinese and foreign databases, such as China Knowledge Network Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP Database, Wanfang database, Chinese excellent master’s degree full text, Science Direct, Web of science, Wiley online library, Springer link, Taylor &amp;amp; Francis, and APA PsycNET, were searched, and the relevant literature was collected and screened for meta-analysis.ResultsA total of 28 literatures were included, and the total sample size was 12,103. Meta-analysis showed that the dimensions of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization were moderately negatively correlated with conscientiousness, openness, extroversion, and agreeableness, and the effect values were −0.20 (−0.26 ∼−0.13), −0.11 (−0.17 ∼−0.05), −0.18 (−0.24 ∼−0.12), −0.14 (−0.22 ∼−0.06), −0.27 (−0.33 ∼−0.22), −0.12 (−0.16 ∼−0.08), −0.19 (−0.24 ∼−0.14), and −0.28 (−0.36 ∼−0.19), respectively. The effect values were 0.30 (0.21 ∼ 0.40) and 0.26 (0.17 ∼ 0.34). The dimension of low sense of achievement was negatively correlated with the five dimensions of conscientiousness, openness, neuroticism, extroversion and agreeableness of the big five personality traits, and the influence values were −0.02 (−0.18 ∼ 0.13), −0.02 (−0.14 ∼ 0.10), −0.03 (−0.16 ∼ 0.10), −0.04 (−0.18 ∼ 0.19), −0.05 (−0.16 ∼ 0.06) respectively. The correlation between each dimension of big five personality traits and each dimension of teachers’ job burnout is adjusted by teaching segment, region, big five personality traits scale, and publication age.ConclusionThe dimensions of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization are negatively correlated with conscientiousness, openness, extroversion, and agreeableness, and positively correlated with neuroticism. The dimension of low personal achievement is negatively correlated with the dimensions of big five personality traits. According to the results of this study, teachers generally have the problem of job burnout, and their personality characteristics have a significant impact on job burnout. School managers should pay attention to this problem and implement necessary interventions. At the same time, the conclusions of this study also provide some guiding significance for teachers’ career development.

Lokácia morálnych základov v priestore osobnostného modelu HEXACO

In their recent taxonomy of intuitive ethics, Graham et al. (2011) proposed five moral foundations: 1) harm/care; 2) fairness/reciprocity; 3) ingroup/loyalty; 4) authority/respect, and 5) purity/sanctity. The main aim of this study was to locate these five moral foundations in the HEXACO personality model. The HEXACO model, proposed by Ashton and Lee (2001, 2007), consists of 6 dimensions of personality: honesty/humility, motionality, extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, and openness to experience. Our aim was also to identify gender differences in moral foundations and personality dimensions. The research sample included 149 adult inhabitants of Slovakia. The mean age was 23.07 (SD = 4.83) and ranged from 18 to 40 years. Two questionnaires were utilized in this study: MFQ-30 (Graham et al., 2011) for measuring the five moral foundations and HEXACO-60 (Ashton &amp; Lee, 2009) for measuring the six personality dimensions. A comparison of men and women showed that women scored higher in the moral foundation of harm/care, which is in line with the results of Niazi et al. (2020). According to Niazi et al. (2020) women scored higher than men also in moral foundations of fairness/reciprocity and purity/sanctity, however our results showed no gender differences in those moral foundations. Women scored higher than men also in personality dimensions of honesty/humility and emotionality, which is in line with the results of previous studies (Lee &amp; Ashton 2004, 2006, 2018; Záškodná &amp; Dostál, 2016). Hierarchical regression analysis showed that the personality dimensions of HEXACO significantly predicted the moral foundations, explaining 7.40%–18.40% of the variance of moral foundations. Our findings do not differ significantly from the results of Međedović and Petrović (2016), who state that personality dimensions explain from 6% to 23% of moral foundations. The results of our study showed that the moral foundation of harm/care was best predicted by gender (woman), emotionality and extraversion. Fairness/reciprocity was best predicted by emotionality and extraversion, while ingroup/loyalty by emotionality, extraversion and openness to experience. The moral foundation of authority/respect was predicited by conscientiousness and emotionality and finally, purity/sanctity was best predicted by honesty/humility, emotionality and conscientiousness. Overall, the best predictors of moral foundations were personality dimensions of emotionality and extraversion. We would like to point out two interesting/surprising facts: 1) the personality dimension of honesty/ humility predicts just one moral foundation (purity/sanctity) and 2) the personality dimension of agreeableness is not related to moral foundations at all. Utilizing the personality dimensions, the moral foundations can be characterized as follows: Those who care are extroverted and emotional women. Fair and loyal people are emotional and extroverted, while loyal persons are also open to experience. Authority and sanctity could be characterized by conscientiousness and emotionality, while sanctity is also honest/humble. In conclusion, this is the first study in Slovakia that aims to locate five moral foundations in the area of six dimensions of the HEXACO personality model.
