The interplay between ovarian cancer and social relationships: an analysis of patients’ metaphors

Objective Research showed that ovarian cancer poses unique challenges to patients’ care experiences and that patients’ social networks could affect their care path significantly. The present study aimed to analyse the metaphors that patients used to signify the impact of the illness on their social relationships and the role of relationships in dealing with cancer. Design Following a qualitative description approach we conducted 38 semi-structured interviews with Australian (14) and Italian (24) women diagnosed at different stages of ovarian cancer. Results The analysis identified four themes bringing together the meanings expressed by participants’ metaphors: Lack of comprehension and communication; Isolation, marginalisation, and self-isolation; Discrepancy between the private and public self; and Social relationships as empowerment resources. Conclusion The polysemic nature of patients’ metaphors captures both the empowering and especially disempowering role of social relationships in dealing with ovarian cancer. Results also show that metaphors are used to make sense of the impact of ovarian cancer on social relationships and to express different strategies for managing patients’ networks.

ackground: Low levels of education and livelihoods have an impact on household income/income. In general, the biggest expenditure of households with low incomes is for food needs, which if viewed further, is mostly on staple food so that there is an imbalance in household consumption which is eventually alleged to be the cause of malnutrition, especially in children. Aim: This study aims to determine strategies for increasing rural household income through empowerment and capacity building of household human resources as an effort to overcome stunting. Method: This is a case study with a qualitative approach. It attempts to capture reality as holistic, complex, dynamic, meaningful and the relationship is interactive/reciprocal. The types of data used in this study are quantitative data types and qualitative data types of required data sources, namely primary data and secondary data. The data needed were collected by means of in-depth interviews, observations, documentation. Findings: The government seeks to overcome stunting in Kupang, TTS and Manggarai Regencies by empowering the community through several stages such as the first stage, namely making the community aware of the importance of increasing self-capacity, in the second stage, namely the transformation stage, opening people's insights in the form of basic knowledge and skills about the role taken in development in the household and in the community.

Erosion prevention through empowerment of human resources to support food security around the Kambaniru watershed, East Nusa Tenggara

The high activity of the community that is not accompanied by the readiness of human resources around the watershed determines the status of the land use index, the erosion index, and economic and social factors. The negative externality impacts arise due to unfriendly land-use management on various types of cultivation, including agriculture, cultivation, plantations, or even livestock, contributing to the potential for erosion. This study aims to create a causal model of erosion prevention through a human resource development approach to support community food security and develop a technical program for land rehabilitation around the Kambaniru watershed, East Nusa Tenggara. The research method is presented descriptively with observation, tabulation, and data valuation techniques. The performance assessment results of the Kambaniru watershed show a medium-category classification. Multi-purpose plants and trees are prioritized for land rehabilitation to prevent erosion and provide food security for the poor, such as corn and tubers. Human resource capacity development in the upstream and central communities has successfully supported the erosion prevention and land rehabilitation program. The policy implications of this research are as follows: the limited capacity of community human resources in land conservation can be started by socializing the planting of short-lived trees. The recommended species are legume family types that can thrive in various types of soil and are flexible with climate change. Corn and tubers are a source of high calories and nutrients needed to improve the quality of human resources in the Kambaniru watershed area. Therefore, developing a food reserve land program in the Kambaniru watershed is necessary.

The Wormhole of Work Engagement: The Empowerment of Personal Resources

A growing body of empirical studies on work engagement has been conducted to investigate the predictors of work engagement from a resource perspective. However, previous research on work engagement has focused solely on the ownership of job resources, dismissing personal resources owned by individuals as distinct entities. The current study evaluates the literature on work engagement, identifies the research gaps, and proposes a research agenda for the future. A systematic literature review of 54 articles from top-tier journals was conducted to achieve the research objective. This study adds to the literature by constructing a conceptual analysis that expands on the theoretical understanding of work engagement. As such, it sheds light on how personal resources play a critical role in increasing work engagement. Personal resources may supplement and reinforce job resources, allowing individuals to articulate the company's vision into more effective business processes. The potential role of self-efficacy as a strong personal resource that can predict and enhance work engagement is one of the most significant findings in this study. Furthermore, the current study emphasizes the need for methodological advances, multilevel analysis, and the expansion of work engagement construction across a wide range of contexts and industries around the world.

Technology innovation in high-end equipment manufacturing (HEM) enterprises technology innovation plays an important role in supporting national economies and social development, accelerating the speed of digital transformation. Digital empowerment aggravates the dynamics, complexity, and uncertainty of technology innovation in HEM enterprises. In order to improve the innovation performance mechanism of China’s HEM enterprises, the adaptability of technology embedding and digital empowerment are introduced to further explain the direct and the moderating effect. Specifically, through a literature review and practical research, the connotation and dimensional division of digital empowerment are defined. According to empowerment tools, digital empowerment is divided into resource empowerment and structural empowerment, and according to the empowerment actor relationships, digital empowerment is divided into platform empowerment and ecological empowerment. Additionally, 436 HEM enterprises are used as research objects to build a conceptual model of the different digital empowerment dimensions, adaptability to technology embedding and technology innovation performance. The research results show that resource empowerment and structural empowerment have U–shaped effects on technology innovation performance, and platform empowerment and ecological empowerment positively affect technology innovation performance. Then, adaptability to technology embedding positively moderates the U-shaped relationship between structural empowerment and technology innovation performance. Adaptability to technology embedding positively moderates the relationship between resource empowerment, platform empowerment, ecological empowerment and technology innovation performance. The research findings deepen the connotation and dimension of digital empowerment, demonstrating the nonlinear relationship between digital empowerment and technology innovation performance of HEM enterprises. Additionally, the research expands on the new applications of adaptability to technology embedding in the digital transformation of manufacturing.
