A Comparative Study on Civic Consciousness between Pre-service Teachers in Thailand and Korea

The purpose of this study is to investigate and compare the civic consciousness of pre-service teachers in Thailand and Korea to understand the educational culture of each country and to obtain implications for teacher education. As a result, the following results were obtained. First, Thai pre-service teachers considered the advantages of Thailand's education system providing good educational opportunities, and Korea is gaining the effects of good education. The disadvantages were Thailand's unchanging conservative education system and excessive learning, and Korea's entrance exam-oriented education system and simple teaching methods. According to the opinions of prospective teachers, both countries should make efforts to utilize the advantages and improve the disadvantages. Second, in terms of perception of the government and law, Korean pre-service teachers are more obedient to the government's authority than Thai pre-service teachers, and are also obedient to adults, teachers, and parents. On the other hand, Thai pre-service teachers thought that the judicial system was more fair than Korean pre-service teachers. In the case of Korea, the conservative and progressive regimes change frequently, so the results are likely to vary at each point of investigation. This is thought to be the same for Thailand. Third, when it comes to Asian traditional culture and identity, Thai and Korean pre-service teachers showed an attitude of empathy, and Korean pre-service teachers generally emphasized relatively higher morality and mental maturity as citizens. Fourth, when it comes to public services, Korean pre-service teachers were more critical of politicians' morality, corruption of co-authored services, and connectionism than Thai pre-service teachers. Considering the impact of teachers on students' attitudes and behaviors as democratic citizens, it is expected that the two countries will have many implications for the direction of teacher education in relation to democratic civic education if they expand the scope of investigation.

The relationship of real-life interpersonal difficulties and Chinese adolescents’ online deviant behavior: a U-shaped mediated moderating effect of online morality

Based on the integrated perspective of reality and virtual networks, this study aims to explore the mechanism of how interpersonal difficulties influence Chinese adolescents’ online deviant behavior and the roles of online morality and online social support in this relationship. A questionnaire containing four psychological scales was administered to 1,120 Chinese adolescents, and the meditating and moderating effects were analyzed using structure equation modeling. The results show that (1) Real-life interpersonal difficulties and online social support can significantly increase online deviant behavior, whereas online morality can significantly decrease such behavior. (2) There is a U-shaped mediated moderating effect: The recovering effect of morality for the impact of interpersonal difficulties on online deviant behavior is only effective for individuals with high moral levels and mild interpersonal difficulties; however, once interpersonal difficulties exceed the critical threshold, online deviant behavior will surge, particularly among individuals with high online morality. (3) There is a moderated mediating effect: Online social support is a mediator between interpersonal difficulties and online deviant behavior, and online morality can negatively moderate the impact of online social support on online deviant behavior. Furthermore, this study also proposed a theoretical model to explain how online deviant behavior happens, which can be used to control and reduce online deviant behavior.

Augustine on the City of God and the City of the World: A Preliminary Study of Augustine's Political Philosophy

Augustine's philosophy can be understood in two ways, namely love and justice. Love occupies a very important place in Augustine's thought. Love will determine what kind of city people are in, and love is more important than justice, so love and justice build two cities. The city of God composed of love and justice and the city of the world composed of love and injustice. The City of God represents an ideal society of high faith, spirituality and morality. The people of this city strive for the best, are guided by God's law, and their actions are guided by moral values. In the City of God, individual desires are constrained by virtue and devotion, and people pursue the happiness and harmony of the whole at the expense of individual interests. By contrast, secular cities represent secular interests, desires, and utilitarian societies. The residents in this city are more in pursuit of individual desire satisfaction and material benefits. They are driven by secular values and practical factors, and often ignore moral and ethical considerations in the pursuit of personal gain.

Do firms walk the talk when economic uncertainty is high?

The growing influence of stakeholders and unprecedented emphasis on corporate social responsibility (CSR) have significantly changed the way firms operate. To seek legitimacy from stakeholders, firms might implement CSR measures in true essence while others might turn to CSR decoupling (i.e., higher CSR disclosure than performance), which is detrimental to the firm and stakeholders, specifically when facing high economic uncertainty. Using a large dataset of U.S. firms listed between 2002 and 2019, we examine how economic policy uncertainty (EPU) impacts CSR decoupling. Our findings show that EPU and CSR decoupling are positively and significantly associated, suggesting that firms do not walk the talk when economic uncertainty is high. These results expand legitimacy theory by suggesting that corporations use CSR disclosure as a façade to seek legitimacy from stakeholders when faced with high uncertainty. Interestingly, female directors, who are associated with higher ethicality, acquit themselves well when uncertainty is high: gender-diverse boards play a significant role in moderating policy uncertainty's adverse impacts on CSR decoupling. These findings are robust to different regression models, subsample analysis, and endogeneity issues.

A review of antimicrobial usage practice in livestock and poultry production and its consequences on human and animal health

Antimicrobials are employed in the control of contagious illnesses in humans and animals and are also utilized as growth enhancers in livestock and poultry. Improper application of antibiotics results in the development of multi-drug-resistant (MDR) bacteria, such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), vancomycin-resistant S. aureus (VRSA), colistin-resistant, extend¬ed-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing E. coli, and fluoroquinolone-resistant Salmonella. Transmission of MDR bacteria happens among animals, from human to animal, and vice versa, resulting in treatment failure, increased treatment cost, and high morality. In this article, we analyzed the recent publications of the current antimicrobial application practices in livestock and poultry farms and the development of antimicrobial resistant (AMR) bacteria in livestock and poultry and its adverse effects on human and animal health using PubMed, Google Scholar, and Google. Citations from published articles were also analyzed. Several drug-resistant bacteria, including MRSA, VRSA, colistin-resistant strains, ESBL-producing E. coli, and fluoroquinolone-resis¬tant Salmonella, have emerged due to heavy antibiotic application in cattle and poultry, according to the analysis. Transmission happens between people and animals as well as throughout the production chain, which raises the chance of failure of antibiotic therapy and fatality. To stop the proliferation of drug-resistant bacteria, it is important to ensure the proper use of antibiot¬ics in livestock and poultry. Especially in developing nations, strict control and implementation of antimicrobial rules are necessary. To successfully address antimicrobial resistance and lessen dependency on antibiotics, alternative disease management strategies in livestock and poultry must be developed.

SENTUHAN NILAI ADAB DAN AKHLAK YANG TERKANDUNG DALAM KARYA PUISI MELAYU

This study discusses the exploration of the values of courtesy and morality embedded in Malay poetry. These values are intricately crafted using metaphors or direct expressions, coupled with the fusion of natural elements and positive values that depict the culture of the Malay society. Forms of Malay poetry, such as pantun, for instance, serve as expressions of advice and guidance that shape the identity of the community during that particular period. Meanwhile, Malay proverbs and sayings contain wisdom and past experiences, serving as practical guidance in facing situations, enriching the language, while preserving cultural values. There are also Malay poems that convey implicit language structures and deliver subtle meanings, such as gurindam. Poetic forms like gurindam are often depicted in rhetorical language structures through expressions of deep emotions and feelings, simultaneously fostering noble characteristics and high morality as a virtuous and humble individual. This study employs a qualitative method that focuses on a profound understanding of the phenomena and meanings behind the values and characters present in Malay poetry. Data is collected through observation and text analysis to identify and analyse patterns of cultural values in Malay literary poetry. Consequently, the results of this study can illustrate the role of Malay poetry in shaping the values and character of an outstanding society. In other words, Malay poetry contributes to a high civilization and serves as a guide, especially for the current generation facing challenges of modernity and globalization.

The image of a policeman and the attitude of society towards policemen of different countries

This article analyzes the image of the police and society's attitudes towards law enforcement in different countries. The study includes various aspects such as the prestige of the profession, the image of law enforcement, and guarantees of professional activity for police officers. The authors consider the experiences of some countries, including Ukraine, and highlight the importance of police reform based on a community-oriented approach. The results of this study can be useful for police officers, law enforcement agencies, and governments in ensuring a positive image of the police and improving relations between police officers and the community.
 Special conditions of service, such as a state of emergency, can have both positive and negative impacts on the image of the police and society's attitudes towards them. On the one hand, strengthening loyalty and unity among police officers can enhance their professionalism and effectiveness. On the other hand, a too strong sense of a military atmosphere can lead to the use of violence and human rights violations, which negatively affects the image of the police and citizens' attitudes towards them.
 Furthermore, dedication to their duties and readiness to perform them under any circumstances are crucial components of effective police work. This is where high morale is necessary, which is required for effective police work. The responsibility for the safety and order of the country is entrusted to them, and they must always be ready to act. Therefore, the police should strive to ensure the support and respect of the community, reflect their needs, and perform their duties with a high degree of professionalism and ethics.
 The article compares the image of the police in different countries and examines how police officers act during times of crisis. It analyzes and compares the approaches of different countries to the development of police activity and their impact on the relationship between the police and citizens during a state of emergency in Ukraine.

Boosting High Morale In the Workplace Through Islamic Values

The objective of this study is to identify the extent of the role of Islamic values in shaping a foundation of morale in the workplace. Indeed, building a strong foundation in an organization requires moral resilience from all members as a unified whole and supports each other in an integrated manner. However, overcoming moral problems in the workplace is not simple, but a complex one. There are various aspects or values that must be integrated as a whole, including the religious values held by members of the organization. In this case, for Muslims morals are values that are built on the basis of inherent beliefs as a guide in living their daily lives as Muslims which originate from the Qur’an and Hadith. Therefore, it is necessary to study further the components that will strengthen the moral foundation in the workplace through Islamic values. To support the diagnoses developed, the method used in this study is a literature review by using various valid data sources. Furthermore, the results of this study identify that Islamic values through their components can support the emergence of high morale in the workplace. Thus, this study builds new insights into the importance of the role of Islamic values in building the foundations of a moral ethic in organizations as an effort to deal with various moral problems that have recently gotten worse and are dangerous for the sustainability of the organization.

Konsep Lera-Wulan Tana-Ekan Orang Lembata dalam Tinjauan Filsafat Agama Hegel: Suatu Upaya Berdialog

Faith and culture are often considered as interesting areas of topics for the academic discussions. They can become fruitful dialogue partners in the search of truth. Each area refers to the sources of truth at different levels compared to others outside of their areas. This article is an effort to reconcile the truth claims on the ontological and empirical levels by way of dialogue. The dialogue raised here brings together religion in Hegel’s philosophy and the cultural belief of the Lembata people called Lera-Wulan Tana-Ekan. Both are on different paths, one is a series of philosophical ideas while the other is a local wisdom from a certain part of Indonesia, particularly among the Lembata people in East Nusa Tenggara. This article aims to elevate the claims of truth that exist in a belief from a certain culture to the public domain of philosophy. The method used in this writing is dialectical by analyzing whether the ideas in Hegel’s philosophy of religion are in line with the beliefs held by the Lembata people. The belief in the universe, the highest morality, and the origin of creation are analyzed in relation to the movement of the Spirit discussed by Hegel in the natural religion, the religion of art, and the revealed religion.

Integration of the 4C and cordos-mediation concept as a national model for the development of a modern graduate

The reform of the education system in Ukraine involves the search for new approaches to the formation and development of a university student as a European-level competitive specialist. Therefore, the study aims to analyse and substantiate the model of development of a modern graduate, which consists of the 4C concept, containing four key skills of the future (creativity, critical thinking, cooperation, communication) and such a national phenomenon as cordos-mediation - the spiritual dominant of Ukrainian culture. Following the set goal, a range of theoretical methods was used, namely analysis, synthesis, comparison and generalisation - to determine the content of the main concepts; abstract-to-specific analysis - to explore and comprehend the concept of cordos-mediation; the abstraction and induction were used to study each element of the model separately; structural and logical method was used to determine the relationship between the components of the model; generalisation of personal and colleague pedagogical experience was introduced to determine the practical implementation of the model. The concepts of “skill”, “creativity”, “critical thinking”, “aberrant thinking”, “cooperation”, “communication skill”, “cordos-mediation”, and “emotional intelligence” were analysed and summarised using the latest scientific research of Ukrainian and international scholars. All components of the model are interconnected and meet the requirements of the time, are future-oriented and contribute to achieving a high level of productivity when combined and complemented comprehensively. The development of the above skills is possible in any discipline and in a variety of ways, which are proposed at each stage of the study. The aberration-thinking prevention properties of these elements, ensuring no negative consequences, were addressed to ensure the readiness of future professionals to work in the context of globalisation, digitalisation, and future challenges. Each of the components of the model is a multifaceted concept, but unlike creativity, critical thinking, cooperation, and communication, which are the subject of many modern studies, the cordos-mediation phenomenon is still insufficiently studied, therefore determining the research relevance. To implement the concept of the model of development of a modern graduate, it is recommended to develop integrated 4C skills in combination with cordos-mediation, where the latter is a key linking element, without which it is impossible to form an Innovator, Patriot, Personality capable of preserving and restoring spiritual values, high moral, and universal principles. The practical value is determined by the possibility of using study results in the pedagogical process by teachers of educational institutions, in particular, in building an individual trajectory of development of students

The Role of Islamic Leadership in Vitalizing High Morale in the Workplace

Organizations are increasingly involved in the struggle of what is often known as an 'ethical dilemma', a condition that requires a clear definition of right and wrong actions caused by lines or boundaries that are increasingly blurred than before. Indeed, leadership and management are human activities as the art and skill of utilizing productive resources to achieve desired goals. Furthermore, it becomes clear, one of the factors that influence the formation of the moral character of employees is the role of spirituality in the work environment and the humility of leaders. The purpose of this research is to explore the relationship between Islamic leadership and high morale in the workplace. In relevant conditions, the role of a leader is as the person who leads and the person who manages to translate the vision, direction, and plans into effective actions for the progress of the organization. Thus, the role of the leader is key to shaping and developing organizational culture. This study is a theoretical development to form the basis for empirical studies of leadership models. This study indicated that Islamic values have a significant effect to boost high morale in the workplace. The role of the leadership needs to be empowered in order to build workers' awareness of the importance of Islamic values as a principle of life. Thus, this study expands the literature in the field of leadership styles that explores Islamic values in increasing morale in the workplace.

Accounting Ethics Education On Ethical Behaviour of Accounting Graduates In Malaysia

The rising corporate scandals caused by unethical accountants have concerned various parties, especially the stakeholders. These scandals, whether in public or private sectors, will impact the economy and reputation of a country. Therefore, the role of ethical accountants in providing reliable information for decision-making is a very crucial and should be addressed seriously. Thus, the education sector is believed to be one of the ways to produce graduates with good technical skills, knowledge, and high morality to make the best judgement for society. The research is conducted to assess the influence of accounting ethics education (ethics courses and teaching styles) on the ethical behaviour of accounting graduates in Malaysia. This study uses questionnaire which distributed to accounting graduates from MIA-accredited universities. 70 usable responses were received and PLS-SEM is used to analyse the data. This study found that teaching styles used in teaching ethics courses have a positive and significant relationship on the ethical behaviour of accounting graduates in Malaysia. However, ethics courses offered in the accounting program at the university was found not be significant. thus, it is suggested that lecturers need to use various methods of teaching in delivering ethics courses to enhance the ethical behaviour of accounting graduates in Malaysia.

상황적 행동이론에서 도덕성의 역할

This study attempted to empirically investigate the moral filtering hypothesis as a major role of morality in situational action theory. More specifically, we examined whether people with high morality even in a criminogenic situation do not consider crime as an alternative using a specific hypothetical situation. The current study utilized the data from 「A study of juvenile felony crime」 conducted by the Korean Institute of Criminology(KIC) in 2013. This study estimated logistic regression. The results indicated that people with high morality were less likely to perceive crime as an action alternative in the first place, even in criminogenic settings that cause theft, robbery, and arson. The findings provide support for the moral filtering hypothesis in situational action theory and fill the gap in the existing literature. Lastly, the limitations of the study and suggestions for future research are discussed.

LncRNA SEMA3B-AS1 Inhibits miR-513c-5p to Regulate the Progression of Triple-negative Breast Cancer.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most malignant breast cancer subtype with a short survival time and high morality. There is an urgent need for effective indicators able to predict tumor progression and provide reference for adjusting the therapeutic strategy of TNBC. lncRNA semaphorin 3B antisense RNA1-AS1 (SEMA3B-AS1) was previously identified to be correlated with the stemness and autophagy of breast cancer. SEMA3B-AS1's role in TNBC was investigated in the present study, aiming to explore a novel biomarker for the development and prognosis of TNBC. SEMA3B-AS1 expression was detected in tissue samples from 113 TNBC patients using PCR. The clinical significance of SEMA3B-AS1 was assessed by the Chi-square test and Cox analysis. The in vitro function of SEMA3B-AS1 was investigated by CCK8 and Transwell assay. Study of molecular mechanism, correlation analysis and dual-luciferase reporter assay were employed to assess the correlation of SEMA3B-AS1 with miR-513c-5p. A significant down-regulation of SEMA3B-AS1 was observed in TNBC, which was related to patient TNM stage, lymph node metastasis, and Ki67 levels. SEMA3B-AS1 down-regulation indicated patients' adverse prognoses and served as an independent prognostic factor. In vitro, SEMA3B-AS1 suppressed the stemness, proliferation, and metastasis of TNBC cells. Moreover, SEMA3B-AS1 negatively regulated miR-513c-5p, which could reverse the inhibitory effects of SEMA3B-AS1 on TNBC cells. SEM3B-AS1 indicates the severity of TNBC patients and regulates tumor progression via modulating miR-513c-5p.

Комедия В. П. Катаева «Время, вперед!»: художественный образ главного героя в контексте вариантов произведения

The article studies the variants of Valentin Kataev’s comedy Time, forward! in order to identify edits that influenced the author’s expression and the reader’s perception of the image of the main character. While researching comedy variants, it was found that the authors interested in Kataev’s work avoided the comedy Time, forward!. In our opinion, knowing about the corrections of the text of the play, Soviet critics, guided by political correctness, did not dare to engage in public polemics and literary-critical discussion around the famous writer. In the post-Soviet period, Kataev’s dramaturgy lost its relevance, did not kindle the interest of specialists. This study was conducted on the material of the comedy editions published during the author’s lifetime. Its relevance is justified by establishing the originality of the image of the main character of the main version of the work, reflecting the characters, emotions and feelings of people of its era. As part of the sample analysis it was found that by making corrections to the climactic scenes of the ending of the 1934 play, the author leaves the plot, the sequence of scenes, the system of images, the general idea of the work unchanged. During the comparison of the variants of the work, the edits made by the author to the two scenes of the finale were revealed. These scenes, connecting with the preceding scene, create a single plot and ideological and emotional node of the climax of the work. The image of the characters and the hero acquire a completely different appearance. With the appearance of comedy in public and up to the present, it has been believed that the image of the main character is a passionate and uncompromising fighter for the communist attitude to work. The edits revealed in the study in the version of the comedy of 1934, without dismissing the hero’s struggle for the result, a high pace in the socialist competition, indicate self-assertion of personality: high morality, friendly feelings. The image of the communist hero, which did not correspond to the literary and political canon, caused acute criticism and was the reason for suppressing the work. The results of the study give ground to consider the version of the play Time, forward! of 1934, a valuable source reflecting the characters, emotions and feelings of the heroes of its time.

Prosedur Sistem Penataan Arsip di Program Studi Administrasi Bisnis Jurusan Administrasi Bisnis Politeknik Negeri Manado

The business administration study program is one part of the Business administration Department owned by the Vocational education institution at the Manado State Polytechnic, established in 1987 and aims to produce student graduates who are able to carry out functions as an administrative staff professionally in accordance with their field of expertise. As well as being able to complete administrative tasks in a relatively short time which is supported by the ability to use language, the latest technology and supported by high morals, responsibility and discipline. In carrying out the activity process has benchmarks that must be achieved in improving quality, one of which is by always producing good quality archives and at certain times it is needed for smooth activities in the Business administration study program. For this reason, the resulting archive must be managed according to the procedures used and then stored and can be found quickly and precisely when needed. The role of archives as a support for the organization in the smooth implementation of activities in accordance with its management procedures. In fact, it was found when the initial observation was made that there was a lack of complete documents manually or electronically, there was no special officer to handle the management of archives, so that when needed it was very difficult to find. A number of documents or archives available are not well organized due to the availability of equipment that is still minimal. This research was conducted with the aim that the availability of documents and a number of documents can be well organized and protected, archives can be well organized with the availability of equipment and special officers who handle it. This research will use qualitative research methods by collecting data through observation, interviews and documentation.
