Self-medication Practices Among Muslim Youth of Kashmir: An Empirical Study

In many parts of the world self-medication is a popular practice to treat some common minor diseases in order to save time and money without realizing side effects of self-medication for the patients. We know ‘Over The Counter’ (OTC) drugs are meant for self-medications but their wrong use due to lack of knowledge about medicines can have grave side-effects on patients. In Kashmir the growth in self-medications in Kashmir can be attributed to urge to self-care, feeling of sympathy towards ill family members, deficiency of health services, economic condition, unawareness and easy availability of drugs in medical shops. To treat minor common diseases like fever, cold, cough, diarrhoea etc patients acquire expert advices from family members, neighbours or strangers about medications. Majority of people do not take their illness seriously or avoid Doctor because of busy life, ignoring side effects of self-medication. In Kashmir, it is a common practice in homes to use antibiotics like Co-Amoxyclav 625 and Azithromycin for treating common cold and sharing of prescriptions within the family, using the left over medications for somewhat related symptoms is quite a popular practice. In the present study carried out in Kashmir valley, a survey of the study area was carried out and discussions were held with the elders as well as with medical practitioners. A well-designed validated questionnaire was used to collect the information from 400 youth selected at random from Kashmir on their consent. The data collected from survey was statistically analysed using standard statistical methods. The study revealed that majority of respondents were taking medicine without consulting a Doctor to treat minor ailments. Statistically, it was observed that there was a significant difference in the attitude of male and female respondents towards self medication (P<0.01). The discussion with respondents revealed that they were interested in knowing Islamic ruling about self-medication as in the present world due to lack of patience youth take medicine because of depression and anxiety. Islam allows modern treatment of many diseases like infertility provided it is not against the teaching of Islam and guidance of holy Prophet. Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) taught Muslims to pray more in tough times for attaining peace of mind, relief from pain, anxiety and worries. Finally, it was suggested that everyone should avoid self-medication as much as possible and Government should play its role to avoid the selling of banned medicines on medical shops without Doctors prescription

New Graduate Nurses' Experiences by Generation in South Korea: A Qualitative Meta-Synthesis.

As the nursing organization environment evolves into one in which several generations work together, there are concerns about generational differences leading to conflicts. A synthesis of qualitative studies was used to gain insight into the experiences and perceptions of new nurses working in South Korean hospitals and identify generational differences between nurses of Generations X and Y. Eight databases were searched systematically for qualitative studies published up to June 2020. The Critical Appraisal Skills Programme Checklist for Qualitative Research was used to evaluate the quality of the retrieved studies, and the data were synthesized thematically using the Thomas and Harden method. Of the 2,482 studies retrieved, 19 were included in this meta-synthesis. The experience of new nurses were presented in the three analytical themes of work experience, interpersonal relationships, and adaptation, from which eight descriptive themes were derived: (a) dissatisfied with own work performance, (b) negative feedback on work outcomes, (c) irregular daily life, (d) colleagues who help adapt to work life or make work life harder, (e) feelings of sympathy toward peers, (f) disrespectful patients or caregivers, (g) effective reactions, and (h) ineffective reactions. Although the new nurses from Generations X and Y reported similar experiences during their first year of nursing, differences were found in their values and tendencies regarding work and interpersonal relationships. Compared with new Generation X nurses, new Generation Y nurses placed more value on the meaning of individual work contributions, intimacy with colleagues, and appropriate feedback. The findings of this study support nursing administrators implementing strategies that both acknowledge and reduce the impact of generational category on nursing teams. Furthermore, emphasizing communication and acknowledging ongoing change as generations progress may strengthen bonds that lead nurses to value each other and their work.

Implementation of Hypnoteaching in English Language Teaching (ELT)

This research discusses the implementation of hypnoteaching in the teaching and learning process. This research is library research. The analysis shows several steps in implementing hypnoteaching: 1) Giving intentions and motivation. It is related to the teacher mastering the material and continuing to provide meaning to the things that are conveyed. 2) Pacing. Pacing is stepping/equalizing positions, gestures, language, and brain waves between teachers and students. 3) Leading. Leading is directing the class atmosphere to create a conducive and efficient manner, but still feel calm or relaxed. 4) Giving praise. Praise is a self-esteem boost and forms a person's self-concept so it is very important to provide sincere praise to students. 5) Modeling. Modeling is being a role model and setting an example through speech and behavior. Besides, teachers should consider using hypnoteaching including the teacher’s appearance, feeling of sympathy, empathic attitude, language use, demonstration, or issuing self-expression for the kinesthetic, and motivating learners. However, the teacher's proficiency in using hypnoteaching depends on the extent to which the teacher uses, applies, and practices their knowledge in the learning process. Hypnoteaching places more emphasis on the abilities of the subconscious brain than the student's conscious brain. By using hypnoteaching, teachers can create a variety of learning processes, the learning process will run dynamically, there is good interaction between teachers and students, students are more motivated to learn and understand the learning material, students enjoy learning activities, also there are positive suggestions for the subconscious language used by teachers.

Giving farm animals a name and a face: Eliciting animal advocacy among omnivores using the identifiable victim effect

Diets based on animal products are costly to our health and the planet and often inflict suffering on animals. In this study, we aimed to elicit animal advocacy among omnivores using the identifiable victim effect, a well-documented phenomenon in which presenting an identifiable victim, compared to anonymous or statistical victims, evokes greater caring and helping behavior. We explored whether this finding extends to farm animal victims, and particularly among omnivores who may have a material interest in the outcome (i.e., the slaughter of farm animals)., Consequently, due to their dietary lifestyle and consumer support of the meat industry, they may be perceived as complicit in the victimization. In Experiment 1, omnivore participants indicated a greater likelihood to sign and share a petition to save an identified runaway calf (presented with a name and a picture) from slaughter than several unidentified runaway calves. In Experiment 2, we extended these findings to actual petition signing, along with reporting support of the petition. In Experiment 3, we further replicated the identifiability effect using real donations to save the runaway calf (calves) from slaughter and demonstrated it is limited to a single-identified victim. Additionally, we found that feelings of sympathy (Experiment 1) and ambivalence towards meat (Experiment 3) mediated the effect, whereas concern, empathy, identification with animals (Experiment 2), and ecological identity (Experiment 3) moderated it. Omnivores who scored high in concern and ecological identity, and low in empathy and identification with animals were more susceptible to the effect. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

How to Become a Good Artist – Kant on Humaniora and the ‘Propaedeutic for All Beautiful Art’

Abstract In § 60 of the Critique of Judgment, entitled ‘On the doctrine of method of taste,’ Kant suggests that the study of so-called humaniora (ancient Roman and Greek literature) will help one to become a good artist. I will argue that a proper, namely emotional, engagement with humaniora will further the two components of humanity in ourselves: the feeling of sympathy and the ability to communicate feelings. I will discuss two options of how a strengthening of these two components might contribute to the creation of good artworks: it will help one to create artworks that arouse the universal communicable pleasure in the beautiful, or it will help one to create artworks that arouse sympathetic feelings. Siding with the latter option, I will argue that emotions can contribute to the enlivening of aesthetic ideas and, thus, to good art.

The impact of different care dependencies on people’s willingness to provide informal care: a discrete choice experiment in Germany

BackgroundInformal care provided by family members, friends, or neighbors is a major pillar in the German long-term care system. As the number of care-dependent older adults grow, ensuring their future care still relies on the willingness of family members, friends, or neighbors to assume the role of an informal caregiver. This study aimed to investigate the impact on people’s willingness to provide informal care to a close relative with predominately cognitive compared to physical impairments.MethodsAn online survey was distributed to the general population in Germany, which resulted in 260 participants. A discrete choice experiment was created to elicit and quantify people’s preferences. A conditional logit model was used to investigate preferences and marginal willingness-to-accept values were estimated for one hour of informal caregiving.ResultsIncreased care time per day (hours) and expected duration of caregiving were negatively valued by the participants and reduced willingness to care. Descriptions of the two care dependencies had a significant impact on participants’ decisions. Having to provide care to a close relative with cognitive impairments was slightly preferred over caring for a relative with physical impairments.ConclusionsOur study results show the impact of different factors on the willingness to provide informal care to a close relative. How far the preference weights as well as the high willingness-to-accept values for an hour of caregiving can be explained by the sociodemographic structure of our cohort needs to be investigated by further research. Participants slightly preferred caring for a close relative with cognitive impairments, which might be explained by fear or discomfort with providing personal care to a relative with physical impairments or feelings of sympathy and pity towards people with dementia. Future qualitative research designs can help understand these motivations.

Interaction Patterns of Students at the Cipasung Tasikmalaya Islamic Boarding School

Pesantren as an educational institution is not only a place to transfer religious knowledge, but as a place for regeneration of formidable scholar and fighter. But currently there are many various cases of violence that occur in Islamic boarding school, both physical violence and sexual violence that occur against students, this is very ironic because the community’s interest in educating their children in pesantren is icreasing, giving rise to concerns. The purpose of this study is to provide an overview of the interactions carried out by students who choose to attend Islamic boarding schools, how they interact with their friends who have different backgrounds, different regional origins, also different characters and habits. This study uses a qualitative approach with interview techniques and is supported by literature studies, the researcher selects 6 students consisting 3 male students and 3 female students. The results of this study are forms of associative interaction that is built between students is tolerance that are established, when they are able to accept differences brought by fellow students, there is a feeling of sympathy that leads them to carry out a process of collaboration. Acculturation where the existing culture becomes a mixed culture from various regions, although dispute and conflict sometimes occur, this can be resolved by a process of accmodation interaction by prioritizing of advize to do good thing, and also mediation, this cannot be separated from the cultivation of tolerance values which are always sosialization by the the teacher or kyai in Islamic boarding schools.

Adam Smith on uncertainty and security. Part 1.

The subject of the article is the study of Adam Smith's conceptual ideas about uncertainty and security and their relationship. Methods of conceptual analysis are used in two versions. The presentist approach aims to interpret Smith's ideas about uncertainty in terms of modern concepts (fundamental and epistemological uncertainty and their forms). The antiquarian approach aims to explain the features of Smith's concepts in the context of the theological, philosophical ideas and methodological ideas he shared. The analysis is used in presentist and antiquarian variants. The first part of the article shows that Smith uses several concepts of uncertainty. One of them corresponds to the modern idea of epistemic uncertainty. Smith also develops an original concept of ambiguity, which, in the author's opinion, can be most constructively understood from the standpoint of a generalized version of Niels Bohr's principle of complementarity. However, in Smith's system this type of uncertainty is of fundamental importance and is associated with the feeling of sympathy. The third part of the article examines the influence of theological ideas on Smith's ideas about uncertainty. The peculiarities of scientists' interpretation of the uncertainty of the future are explored. The second part also examines selected conceptual relationships between uncertainty and security. In Smith's theoretical system, the reduction of uncertainty plays a special role in ensuring the long-term survival of society (ensuring security - in the presentist interpretation). Smith associates it with following the rules of the virtue of justice, which have the greatest certainty and, functioning like the rules of grammar, perform the function of creating order.

THE ROLE OF DOCUMENTARY FILMS AT AL JAZEERA T.V CHANNEL IN PROVIDING JORDANIAN POLITICAL ELITES WITH KNOWLEDGE/ A SURVEY STUDY

The study aimed to identify the role of documentary films on Al-Jazeera channel in providing Jordanian political elites with knowledge, and to identify the effects resulting from exposure of the study sample to documentary films on Al-Jazeera channel by conducting a field study based on the survey method on a sample of (300) participants using the random sampling method. The sample was distributed among the Jordanian political elites: (MPs, senators , party leaders, political science professors, workers in the diplomatic corps). The study revealed that (63.7%) of the study sample are exposed to documentaries on AlJazeera channel, and the degree of dependence of Jordanian political elites who object to documentary films on Al-Jazeera is medium with a rate of (50.3%), while the degree of their confidence in the information provided by documentary films is high, at a rate of (54.5) %), And the results of the study showed that the most important reasons for Jordanian political elites displaying documentaries on Al-Jazeera are: following up on the epidemic trade file about the emerging corona virus and controversy over the possibility of its manufacture, then “following up the file of human rights violations and issues of opinion-holders in the prisons of Arab regimes, then“ follow-up ” The file of the military coups, "Identifying the scenes of the conflict in Libya". The most prominent effects resulting from the exposure of the study sample to these films came as follows: Cognitive effects, most notably “documentary films contributed to uncovering ambiguous details in the case of the Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi,” and then the emotional effects, most notably the documentary films that dealt with some sensitive issues in creating of our feelings of sympathy and solidarity with the affected parties, "then the behavioral influences, the most prominent of which was" invited my colleagues to watch documentaries because of the important information they provide.

Taking a Closer Look at Disclosure Recipients: How Disclosure Strategy and Emotion Influence Communicative and Relational Responses to Disclosures of Transgender Identity

Guided by the theory of communication privacy management, this study examines recipients’ communicative and relational responses to disclosures of transgender identity. Participants (N = 207) completed an online survey and reported on a time they learned about a close other’s transgender identity. Results indicated that perceived disclosure strategy influenced recipients’ supportive communication, avoidance, aggression, and relational distancing. Recipients’ feelings of sympathy and anger moderated the effects of disclosure strategies on recipient responses. A general pattern emerged, suggesting the effects of disclosure strategies on recipient responses are amplified at low levels of sympathy and high levels of anger.

Linguistic framing effects in business and refugee aid contexts: A replication and extension of Cooley et al. (2017).

Cooley et al. (2017) found that subtle shifts in linguistic framing can enhance the amount of "mind" perceived in a target, and in turn increase feelings of sympathy toward that target. The four studies reported here evaluated whether these findings generalize to different populations and contexts. The first two studies served as conceptual replications in a different participant population (university students, instead of mTurk workers), and found results largely consistent with Cooley et al.'s (2017): the group composition frame ("15 individuals who work for a small accounting company") evoked greater perceptions of experience and agency, and more sympathy for the target, than the group frame ("a small accounting company comprising 15 people"). Studies 3 and 4 tested whether the group composition technique would lead to similar persuasive outcomes (increased mind perception, helping, and donations) in a refugee aid context and found only limited evidence that it might. These inconclusive findings were likely complicated by both the liberal skew of the sample and the strong impact of political identity on responses to the politically charged topic of refugees. For the purposes of practical application, an expanded understanding of boundary effects can help provide a better sense of when, why, and on whom the use of adjusted linguistic frames is most likely to be effective.

Rule Formalization, Bureaucratic Red Tape, and Prosocial Rule Breaking Among Street-Level Bureaucrats: A Citizen-Centered Perspective

Past research indicates that rules can prevent unbureaucratic behaviors among street-level bureaucrats (SLBs). In this research, I draw upon the citizen-agent narrative to propose that when formalized rules are perceived as red tape that negatively affects citizens, SLBs will be more likely to engage in prosocial rule breaking (PSRB) due to their sympathy for citizens in such a situation. I further propose that this effect will be more pronounced among SLBs who interact more frequently with citizens. Data from a sample of local government employees in Thailand were collected to test these hypotheses. Results from latent moderated mediation structural equation modeling analyses revealed that, while rule formalization has a direct negative effect on PSRB, it leads to an increase in PSRB via red tape perceptions and feelings of sympathy for citizens who suffer from red tape. Contact with citizens was also found to amplify the effect of rule formalization on red tape perceptions, such that rule formalization has a stronger indirect influence on PSRB among SLBs who have more frequent contact with citizens. These results point to the importance of maintaining the “optimal” level of rules in citizen-state interactions to ensure that SLBs can perform their public service work effectively.

COMMUNITY BASED REHABILITATION: PROVIDE BARRIER FREEENVIRONMENT AND DEVELOPMENTAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR DISABLED PEOPLE

Community-based rehabilitation approach providesrehabilitation reduce poverty, equal opportunities, and social insertion for differently abled people at community level. Objective of CBR is to meet the needs of people with disabilitieswith the respect to health, educat ion, employment, social and economic empowerment issues (WHO 2010). Statement of the problems: I am going to find out the barriers which affect the available facilities for disabled people. Society treats disabled people in a different way as pity, feelings of sympathy, isolated or rejected. People often maintain social distance and consider disabled as outsiders. Many disable people feel discriminated at various levels in the family as well as in the community. Sometimes their families strongly supported them and even sometimes they might be over-protected by the family members. At the same time they might be rejected and left out from normal community life because of society humiliation and discrimination. In that conditions disabled people have very restricted and limited opportunities and choices for their own development. Objectives: The main focus of the study to find out how community based rehabilitation programme strategies will be effective to remove barriers in all stages and createmultiple opportunities and choices for the betterment of life of disabled people. In this backdrop the paper aims to find out how CBR helpful to provide and strengthentheir mental and physical abilities so they can understand themselves as normal human being in the society. Methodology: The research paper envisioned to find out the exercise of CBR service facility to PWDs, regulate whether differently abled have access to community based rehabilitation facilities, and recognize the CBR implementation challenges from the opinion ofcaregiversand parents, service providers. This whole paper is based on theoretical and literary approach. Data is collected from secondary sources such as books, research papers, journals, and reports etc.

Influence of Consumer Affinity toward Foreign Countries on Consumers’ Regulatory Focuses

Expanding cross-cultural social interaction regardless of whether it is real or virtual makes consumers become interested in different cultures, thereby increasing the number of consumers with positive attitudes toward foreign countries. This study examines the role of consumer affinity—a feeling of sympathy and attachment to a specific foreign country—in cross-cultural consumer decision-making. Specifically, it investigates the conditions that promote or inhibit consumer affinity for foreign product evaluation from the perspective of construal level theory and regulatory focus theory. A series of experiments clarified that when considering the purchase of a foreign product, consumer affinity caused a psychological proximity between the two countries, which could result in a change in consumers’ construal level and, therefore, a difference in the effective method of a product appeal (promotion-focused vs. prevention-focused). This psychological mechanism will expand the research on effective communication strategies when marketing products or services globally.

Europa en de opkomst van Duitsland, 1830-1871

Abstract Europe and the rise of Germany, 1830-1871. The German Question in European perspective A century and a half ago Bismarck’s Reichgründung fundamentally changed Europe’s states system. It marked the end of a quest for German unity that, since the 1830s, had been a central theme of European politics. This era has so far received little attention, and only a few historians appreciate that the rise of Germany in the nineteenth century triggered not only anxiety and fear among its neighbours, but feelings of sympathy and hope as well. This article aims to chart the whole range of reactions and to reintroduce openness to this historical process. It analyses a variety of conceptions of a new European states system in order to understand how Polish, Italian, French, and British politicians and activists anticipated and tried to influence the emergence of a strong and powerful German nation state in Europe’s centre. The conditionality of their support stresses the influence of these neighbouring nations on European-German relations then and now.

Don’t Unplug: How Technology Saved My Life and Can Save Yours Too

Chris Dancy is a die-hard techie and a self-proclaimed consumption-aholic. Known as “the most connected person on earth” (21), Dancy used up to 700 sensors, devices, applications, and services to monitor, evaluate, and change his life—from his eating habits to his spirituality. Don’t Unplug consists of five main sections covering Dancy’s life from birth to age fifty. He shares a lot of his personal life in the book, which brings out feelings of sympathy, empathy, and pity in the reader. In each of the five sections, Dancy first shares his personal stories, and then offers his take-aways and advice from the experience. Dancy considers himself to have an obsessive and addictive personality. “By 2011, I understood that if a substance or situation could be abused, I would find a way to do so” (53). As you read the lengths Dancy goes to tracking his behaviors, it leaves you in no doubt that he did tend to take things to the extreme in every instance.

Looking at Sympathy in Wordsworth's Disability Poetry

Wordsworth's poems about disability – ‘The Idiot Boy’ and ‘The Blind Highland Boy’ and other long poems in which disability plays a tangential yet pivotal role like The Prelude and, less obviously, ‘The Ruined Cottage’ – posit the encounter with impairment as central to feelings of sympathy. Consequently, these poems are usually read as advocating the inclusion of people with disabilities. This article argues that Wordsworth's poems about disability reify a pattern of liberal identity that posits impairment as an obstacle to subjecthood reflecting Wordsworth's misreading of Adam Smith's moral theory. Departing from Smith's argument that disability is socially constructed, Wordsworth separates disabled and able-bodied lives into separate spheres, mediated by a voyeuristic aesthetic. As a result, characters with disabilities arouse intense curiosity and yearning in Wordsworth's poems, but also remain a spectacle of dependence and an adjunct to able identity.

Tra Pinocchio e Lucignolo: Gian Carlo Fusco e il cinema

ABSTRACT From the 50s to the 70s Gian Carlo Fusco was one of the most significant Italian journalists. In recent years, his writings are the subject of a rediscovery, even if the critical examination often does not go beyond the superficiality of his public figure. His cinematographic collaborations, in particular, are almost unknown. They are only considered from an anecdotal point of view. This article examines a part of Fusco's screenplays. It starts with Le avventure di Pinocchio; it examines the collaboration with Tinto Brass (considering also some unrealized projects); and finally the films concerning fascism and the Second World War, one of the most recurring topics of interest for Fusco. Although the film commitments have been very often dictated by random and contingent circumstances, they reveal a tension that is fundamental in the life and work of Fusco. On the one hand, the attraction for “dissipation” (dépense). On the other hand, the feeling of sympathy for the “dark men” (uomini oscuri) and their daily toil.

Ethnic Conflict and the Limits of Nonviolent Resistance

Recent research shows that campaigns of nonviolent resistance are much more successful in producing radical political change than armed rebellion. I argue that the study of nonviolent resistance has paid insufficient attention to a key condition for success—a shared ethnic identity between challengers and government. When challengers and incumbent belong to different ethnic groups, the prospects of campaign success are drastically curtailed, as this situation of “ethnic conflict” inhibits the mechanisms through which nonviolent resistance enables success: emergence of a critical mass of challengers, defection of segments of the security apparatus and the regime inner circle, and development of feelings of sympathy for the opposition cause among key government decision makers. Statistical analysis of all nonviolent campaigns from 1945 to 2006 supports my argument. Nonviolent ethnic campaigns are significantly and substantially less likely to succeed and draw both fewer participants and government defectors than their nonethnic counterparts.
