Impact of Demographic Profile on Sustainability Learning: A Management Education Students’ Survey

PurposeThe specific objective of the research is to analyze the impact of academic level, year of study, age group and gender on cognitive learning, socio-emotional learning, behavioural learning and overall sustainability learning. MethodologyA sample of 389 management students were considered for the current study. The study incorporates multiple regression technique using SPSS software and structure equation modeling employing AMOS 26 software. For analyzing reliability Cronbach's alpha is used and further the construct validity is established via confirmatory factor analysis and for assessing discriminant validity Heterotrait-Monotrait ratio of correlations (HTMT) is employed. FindingsThe overall sustainability learning which has been calculated from the cognitive, socio-emotional and behavioural learning scores is found to be positively impacted by the demographic variables age group and is negatively impacted by the academic level. Practical implicationsThis study suggests that the educational programmes or initiatives must be specifically designed to induce sustainability learning based on gender and age-groups. Industry specific sustainability initiatives can be included in the curricula of professional educational programmes. Originality/valueThere is a dearth of studies in measuring the impact of age group, gender, level and year of study on attainment of sustainability learning objectives in terms of cognitive, socio-emotional, and behavioural learning on professional education students especially in India.

Workplace Corporate Social Irresponsibility in Supply Chain Operations: Generation and Gender Impacts on New Talent Recruitment

Amidst stakeholder demands for transparency and the recent pandemic, the inner workings of supply chains have become more visible. This visibility has shone a spotlight on workplace corporate social irresponsibility (CSI)—actions within a company's internal supply chain operations perceived to harm the well-being of its employees. At the same time, companies scrambling to recruit new talent for operations and supply chain management (OM/SCM) face dual challenges in the shortage of diverse talent and the emergence of new generations in the workforce. Research indicates that younger generations and women more broadly expect social responsibility from their employers, but it is unclear how they perceive social irresponsibility when evaluating job offers. To begin to address this gap, we draw on attribution theory and develop hypotheses that examine prospective employees’ responses to workplace CSI in supply chain operations and whether their responses vary with gender and pay. Results from a conjoint task and mixed effects models reveal that both young men and young women respond negatively to job offers from firms with pervasive workplace CSI across their supply chain operations and atypical levels of workplace CSI relative to other firms. Although we do not find gender differences in general, supplementary analyses offer more nuanced insights (e.g., young men respond less favorably than young women when workplace CSI is pervasive, whereas young women respond more favorably than young men to above-average pay). Overall, our study advances understanding of the spillover effects of workplace CSI on new talent recruitment and highlights that the new generation's preferences run deeper than traditional gender-based expectations. In doing so, we offer timely guidance for executives and human resource managers as companies struggle to recruit diverse new OM/SCM talent.

No Women's Land: Australian Women Veterans' Experiences of the Culture of Military Service and Transition.

Women's experiences of military service and transition occur within a highly dominant masculinized culture. The vast majority of research on military veterans reflects men's experiences and needs. Women veterans' experiences, and therefore their transition support needs, are largely invisible. This study sought to understand the role and impact of gender in the context of the dominant masculinized culture on women veterans' experiences of military service and transition to civilian life. In-depth qualitative interviews with 22 Australian women veterans elicited four themes: (1) Fitting in a managing identity with the military; (2) Gender-based challenges in conforming to a masculinized culture-proving worthiness, assimilation, and survival strategies within that culture; (3) Women are valued less than men-consequences for women veterans, including misogyny, sexual harassment and assault, and system failures to recognize women's specific health needs and role as mothers; and (4) Separation and transition: being invisible as a woman veteran in the civilian world. Gendered military experiences can have long-term negative impacts on women veterans' mental and physical health, relationships, and identity due to a pervasive masculinized culture in which they remain largely invisible. This can create significant gender-based barriers to services and support for women veterans during their service, and it can also impede their transition support needs.

Lifestyle, Gender and Academic Underachievement in English Language Among Students with Learning Disabilities

This study investigated the impact of lifestyle and gender on academic under-achievement in English language among students with learning difficulties. A survey-based descriptive research design was utilized. The population for this study comprises all pupils with learning difficulties in the Oyo North Senatorial District of Oyo State, Nigeria. A multi-stage sampling approach was employed to pick five local governments within the senatorial district. Within each local government, a simple random sample technique was utilized to select two secondary schools. This resulted in a total of ten schools included in the study. A purposive sampling strategy was employed to pick a total of two hundred and eighty-seven (287) individuals, with twenty-nine participants chosen from each school. A questionnaire was employed to obtain information about the lifestyle of students with learning disabilities. Additionally, the Mychebust learning disabilities rating scale (with a correlation coefficient of 0.76) and an English language accomplishment exam were utilized to identify students with specific learning difficulties who have not reached their full potential in English language proficiency. Two hypotheses were proposed, with the first one being examined at a significance level of 0.01 and the second one being tested at significance levels of 0.01 and 0.05. The instrument life-style questionnaire (LSQ) demonstrated a reliability coefficient of r=0.86. The study's findings indicated notable correlations between lifestyle and academic underperformance in students with learning difficulties. Additionally, gender disparities in academic underachievement were observed among the participants. The following recommendations were given: students with learning difficulties should receive appropriate guidance on how to lead a positive and resilient lifestyle. Furthermore, it is crucial for teachers to instruct students in the attentive and accurate repetition and recognition of challenging English vocabulary.

Diversity in Hand Surgery Leadership: The Impact of Mentorship and Bias.

Diversity in leadership drives innovation. However, underrepresented minorities may face barriers. The aim of this study is to understand the impact of gender and race on the experience of leaders in hand surgery. An anonymous survey was sent to leaders in hand surgery who attained the position of national society president, head of a division/department, or hand fellowship director. The survey assessed demographic information, grit, mentorship, and bias. One hundred twenty-one leaders responded for a response rate of 60.5%. Men represented 81.0% and women 19.0%. Most respondents were white (87.6%) with 7% Asian and 6% any other race. Ninety-one percent of female respondents lived in a dual career household, compared with 53.7% of male respondents (odds ratio [OR] 0.15, P = .017). Female respondents had significantly higher grit compared with male respondents (4.3 vs 4.0, P = .050). Male respondents were more likely to have a male mentor/sponsor than women (95% vs 76%, respectively, P = .001). White respondents were more likely to have a white mentor/sponsor than nonwhite respondents (91% vs 61%, respectively, P = .009). Ninety-five percent of women reported experiencing bias compared with 27% of men (P < .001). Specifically, women reported bias in salary, promotion, nomination, sponsorship, networking, and clinical resources. Nonwhite respondents were significantly more likely to experience bias in promotion (P = .006). Women and racial minorities face bias and barriers to leadership within hand surgery.

A Strategic Human Resource Management Approach to Facilitating Volunteer Legacies From Mega-Sport Events: The Moderating Impact of Gender and Experience in the Case of Rio 2016

Volunteers are crucial for successful event delivery, from community to mega-events. Mega-sport events (MSE) are sold on their generative potential for social legacies for host communities like volunteering to support future community and tourism activity. With the lens of the temporal extension of the socioecological framework (TESEF), we propose that strategic human resource management (SHRM) across the volunteer journey will facilitate post-MSE legacy. A previously used online questionnaire and then structural equation modeling (SEM) are used to test 10 hypotheses with 4,824 Rio 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games volunteers. Analysis revealed four predictors (SHRM: recruitment, job allocation, and supervision; and Motivational: variety) have significant positive effects on overall satisfaction. However, volunteer training and overall satisfaction had a highly negative influence on legacy potential. SEM revealed the moderating effect of volunteers??? gender and prior experience. Gender moderated five relationship paths and experience moderated six relational paths. MSE management implications are explored.

Thickness Asymmetry of the Vertebral Artery Groove: A Dried Vertebrae Study.

The vertebral artery groove (VAG), located on the posterior arch of the first cervical (atlas) vertebra plays a pivotal role in guiding the vertebral artery's (VA) third part (V3). Deviations in VAG morphology and morphometry (dimensions) can influence vascular dynamics and pose clinical implications. The current study delves into the morphometric variants and explores the less-explored morphometric variable of the VAG thickness, highlighting possible laterality (asymmetry). A morphometric investigation was conducted on 141 dried atlas (73 male and 68 female) vertebrae from a Greek adult population. The VAG's minimum thickness was investigated by considering the laterality (sides' differences), gender, and age impact on it. Measurements were performed by two independent researchers, ensuring the data reliability. A significant asymmetry was identified in the VAG thickness between the left (3.9 ± 0.9 mm) and right (4.1 ± 1.1 mm) (p=0.005) sides, with the left side having the mean minimum thickness. Gender had a significant impact on VAG thickness only on the left side, with females presenting a significantly thinner left-sided VAG (3.6 ± 0.9 mm) than males (4.10 ± 0.7 mm) (p=0.001). Age had no significant impact on the VAG thickness. Conclusion: The present study underscores the significance of asymmetry in the VAG thickness in craniocervical interventions. This less-explored morphometric variable warrants careful consideration by surgeons during preoperative planning to minimize potential complications. The current findings highlight the importance of understanding the VAG thickness asymmetry and its clinical implications, as this osseous variable may be an index of a different diameter of the VA by side. It is recommended that surgeons incorporate this variable into their preoperative assessments to improve the safety and efficacy of craniocervical interventions.

Gender effect of glucose, insulin/glucagon ratio, lipids, and nitrogen-metabolites on serum HGF and EGF levels in patients with diabetes type 2.

Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) exhibits potent growth-inducing properties across various tissues, while epidermal growth factor (EGF) acts as a molecular integration point for diverse stimuli. HGF plays a crucial role in hepatic metabolism, tissue repair, and offers protective effects on epithelial and non-epithelial organs, in addition to its involvement in reducing apoptosis and inflammation, underscoring its anti-inflammatory capabilities. The HGF-Met system is instrumental in hepatic metabolism and enhancing insulin sensitivity in animal diabetes models. Similarly, the EGF and its receptor tyrosine kinase family (EGFR) are critical in regulating cell growth, proliferation, migration, and differentiation in both healthy and diseased states, with EGF also contributing to insulin sensitivity. In this observational study, we aimed to identify correlations between serum levels of HGF and EGF, insulin, glucagon, glucose, and primary serum lipids in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), taking into account the impact of gender. We noted differences in the management of glucose, insulin, and glucagon between healthy men and women, potentially due to the distinct influences of sexual hormones on the development of type 2 DM. Additionally, metabolites such as glucose, albumin, direct bilirubin, nitrites, and ammonia might influence serum levels of growth factors and hormones. In summary, our results highlight the regulatory role of insulin and glucagon in serum glucose and lipids, along with variations in HGF and EGF levels, which are affected by gender. This link is especially significant in DM, where impaired cell proliferation or repair mechanisms lead to metabolic changes. The gender-based differences in growth factors point to their involvement in the pathophysiology of the disease.

A Comprehensive Review of Proximal Humerus Fractures: From Epidemiology to Treatment Strategies.

This comprehensive review delves into the intricate landscape of proximal humerus fractures (PHFs), exploring their epidemiology, historical evolution, contemporary classification systems, treatment strategies, and outcome measures. PHFs present a complex orthopedic challenge, necessitating a nuanced understanding of their multifaceted dimensions. Despite their clinical significance, PHFs remain relatively understudied in population-based epidemiology. This review critically examines existing literature to uncover the incidence, prevalence, and demographic patterns associated with these fractures. A foundational understanding of the epidemiological landscape is crucial for effective preventive strategies and optimized fracture management. Tracing back to historical records, the review explores the evolution of diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for PHFs. From ancient treatment modalities documented on the Edwin Smith papyrus to contemporary X-ray-based classifications such as Neer and AO/OTA, a historical context is provided to understand the journey of managing these fractures. Navigating through a spectrum of treatment strategies, the review contrasts nonoperative approaches with various surgical interventions. The challenges and outcomes associated with conservative management are juxtaposed against methods like open reduction internal fixation and tension band osteosynthesis. Evidence synthesis guides clinicians in making informed decisions based on patient characteristics and fracture complexities. Central to assessing PHF management are patient-reported outcome measures. The review explores the significance of instruments such as the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) questionnaire and the Constant-Murley score in evaluating treatment success. The shift toward subjective measures is discussed, considering their correlation with patient experiences and the concept of minimal clinically important difference. The impact of demographic factors, including age and gender, on PHFs is scrutinized. The association between these fractures and osteoporosis is highlighted, emphasizing the crucial role of bone health in fracture prevention and management. Through this comprehensive exploration, the review provides a robust foundation for understanding, evaluating, and advancing the management strategies for PHFs. The synthesis of historical perspectives, contemporary classifications, and treatment modalities serves as a valuable resource for the orthopedic community, fostering improved clinical decision-making and patient outcomes.

Social inequalities portrayed in the occupational experiences of girls ahead of incarceration in Brazil

ABSTRACT Literature demonstrates that most girls incarcerated in juvenile justice institutions in Brazil come from socially vulnerable groups that face social inequality and racial and gender discrimination, which results in occupational inequities. This study aims to understand the daily lives of young Brazilian girls ahead of their incarceration based on their occupational experiences and clarify how these occupations express the deep social inequalities that mark their life trajectories. This cross-sectional qualitative exploratory study used oral history as the research method. Twelve young girls incarcerated at a juvenile justice institution in Minas Gerais, Brazil in 2020 were the study participants. The impact of gender and class issues on these young girls’ daily experiences and occupations point toward the oppressions and social inequalities to which they were exposed since childhood. Their life stories were marked by daily violations of their rights, such as the difficulty of accessing and staying in school, exploitation as child labor, the lack of leisure opportunities, exposure to various forms of violence, including sexual violence, and general vulnerability. The concept of occupation, read through the lens of intersectionality, makes it possible to understand the social inequalities that cross the daily lives of vulnerable populations, as well as provoking a critical and activist position in the area in the face of occupational injustices.

Gender Dynamics in High School Mathematics Education: Impact of Teachers and School Environment on Female Students Attitudes and Achievement

This study investigates the impact of teacher gender and school type on the attitudes and academic performance of female high school students in mathematics. Utilizing a sample of 262 final-year high school girls and 10 mathematics teachers from both mixed-gender and single-sex schools in the Sunyani West District located in Ghana, the study employs surveys and achievement tests to gather quantitative data. Statistical analyses reveal several key findings. Male and female teachers shared similar beliefs regarding female students in general. Significant differences emerged in perceptions of students&amp;apos; mathematical abilities. Girls taught by male teachers exhibited lower anxiety levels (t (260) &amp;gt; 1.96, p &amp;lt; 0.05) and higher self-confidence (t (260) &amp;gt; 1.96, p &amp;lt; 0.05) in mathematics compared to those taught by female teachers. Additionally, mixed-gender schools fostered more positive attitudes towards mathematics among female students compared to single-sex schools (t (260) &amp;gt; 1.96, p &amp;lt; 0.05). There were positive correlations observed between students&amp;apos; attitudes towards mathematics and their academic performance, highlighting the importance of teacher-student relationships in shaping students&amp;apos; perceptions and achievements in mathematics. These findings underscore the need for inclusive teaching practices and the recruitment of qualified mathematics educators to support the academic success of female students in mathematics. Future research could explore the disparate treatment of male and female students in mathematics classrooms and investigate effective pedagogical strategies to promote equitable learning outcomes.

The effect of gender on growth performance, live weight gain, growth pattern modeling and, survival rate in Turkish native geese of the Kars region

Objective: This study presents a comprehensive investigation into the impact of gender on various aspects of growth performance in Turkish native geese, specifically in the Kars region.&#x0D; Materials and Methods: A total of 62 goslings, comprising 25 males and 37 females, were monitored over 12 weeks. The study focused on growth performance, live weight gain, survival rates, and growth pattern modeling.&#x0D; Results: The results from the two-way analysis of variance highlighted a statistically significant gender effect on growth performance (P &lt; 0.05), with males consistently exhibiting notably higher live weights during weigh-ins. Significant gender disparities were evident in growth performance both on the hatching day (P &lt; 0.01) and during weeks 6 to 12 (P &lt; 0.05). Remarkably, male geese displayed significantly higher daily live weight gains during weeks 5 to 6 (P &lt; 0.05). Linear regression analyses emphasized gender's influence on live weight gain, with female geese demonstrating an R² value of 0.9044 (P &lt; 0.001) and male geese showing an R² value of 0.8912 (P &lt; 0.001). Gompertz growth models unveiled distinctive growth patterns. In females, an R² value of 0.9300 highlighted their growth trajectory, while males exhibited an R² value of 0.9194. Survival rates after a 12-week period were 81.7% for females and 80.0% for males.&#x0D; Conclusion: In conclusion, this meticulous exploration of the impact of gender on growth trajectories underscores the significant role it plays.

The role of gender differences in the outcome of juvenile social isolation: Emphasis on changes in behavioral, biochemical and expression of nitric oxide synthase genes alteration

Social isolation can cause serious problem in performance of individuals in community. As gender differences may cause variation results in the severity of depressive behavior and response of patients to therapy, the impact of gender and the interaction of the level of endocrine secretion in depression were investigated in this study. Wistar rats of both sexes were subjected to post-weaning social isolation (PWSI) conditions and, together with the control group, experienced several behavioral tests including open-field Test (OFT), elevated plus maze (EPM), force swimming test (FST), splash test and novel object recognition test (NOR). Hippocampal tissue was isolated to measure biochemical factors such as nitric oxide level, FRAP amount, MDA level. In addition, real-time-PCR test was used to quantify the genes expression level of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS). On the other hand, sexual hormone levels in blood were measured. Both cognitive and behavioral f unctions were declined as the result of PWSI induction in male and diestrus female rats. The consequent surge of estradiol during estrous phase seems to suppress the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and modulate iNOS and nNOS expression. In conclusion, while the pattern of PWSI in surge cellular antioxidants, raising cellular ROS level is gender-specific, this alleviation was in relation with the drop of estradiol and unrelated with testosterone level.

Gender Differences in Pain, Function, and Quality of Life Five Years Following Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty

BackgroundMultiple authors have sought to determine what patient characteristics influence outcomes after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The impact of gender on outcomes after TKA remains controversial. Previous studies had less than 5 years of follow-up after TKA. The aim of this evaluation was to determine what differences in pain, function, and quality of life (QoL) exist between female and male patients 5 years after primary TKA. MethodsA prospective, multicenter cohort of 11,602 unilateral primary TKA patients (7,284 females and 4,318 males) was prospectively evaluated. All patients were enrolled in the Function and Outcomes Research for Comparative Effectiveness in Total Joint Replacement. Demographic data, musculoskeletal and medical comorbid conditions, and patient-reported outcome measures, including the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome (KOOS) and Short-Form (36-item) Health Survey mental component score (MCS) and physical component score (PCS) were collected preoperatively and at 5 years after TKA. Descriptive statistics were generated, and stratified by gender, and differences in pain, function, and QoL between female and male patients were evaluated. Multivariate regression models with a 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to assess the role of patient gender as a predictive factor for KOOS pain and function in daily living (ADL) scores reported 5 years after primary TKA, while adjusting for other variables. ResultsPrior to surgery, female patients reported worse pain (KOOS pain 46 versus 52), function (KOOS ADL 53 versus 59), and QoL (KOOS QoL 26 versus 29) than male patients. The differences in preoperative scores ranged from 2.70 (KOOS QoL) to 6.12 (KOOS ADL). At 5 years after TKA, female patients reported slightly worse pain (87 versus 89), function (85 versus 87), and QoL (74 versus 75) when compared to male patients. The differences in the mean 5-year postoperative KOOS scores (range, 0.99 to 2.73), although statistically significant (P < .001), were clinically negligible. Female patients achieved greater improvement in pain (41 versus 37), function (32 versus 29), and QoL (48 versus 46) scores in comparison to male patients. Female patients also reported lower preoperative PCS global function (33 versus 35) scores, 5-year postoperative PCS scores (45 versus 46), and MCS global mental function scores (52 versus 54). Similarly, the differences in the 5-year postoperative Short-Form (36-item) Health Survey MCS and PCS scores were clinically negligible. Multivariate regression analysis showed that female gender was not independently predictive for either pain (β = −1.08; 95% CI [−1.25 to 1.03] [P = .85]) or function (β = 0.64; 95% CI [−0.51 to 1.79] [P = .28]) 5 years after surgery. ConclusionsThere are no clinically significant gender differences in pain, function, or QoL 5 years after TKA. Female patients typically have worse symptoms prior to surgery, improve more than male patients, and end up with pain, function, and QoL scores clinically equal to male patients. These data can enhance the shared decision-making process between female patients and surgeons and assist in setting appropriate patient expectations prior to TKA.

Impacts of Age and Gender on Brain Edema in a Mouse Water Intoxication Model.

Brain edema causes abnormal fluid retention and can be fatal in severe cases. Although it develops in various diseases, most treatments for brain edema are classical. We analyzed the impacts of age and gender on the characteristics of a water intoxication model that induces pure brain edema in mice and examined the model's usefulness for research regarding new treatments for brain edema. C57BL/6J mice received an intraperitoneal administration of 10% body weight distilled water, and we calculated the brain water content by measuring the brain-tissue weight immediately after dissection and after drying. We analyzed 8-OHdG and caspase-3 values to investigate the brain damage. We also applied this model in aquaporin 4 knockout (AQP4-) mice and compared these mice with wild-type mice. The changes in water content differed by age and gender, and the 8-OHdG and caspase-3 values differed by age. Suppression of brain edema by AQP4- was also confirmed. These results clarified the differences in the onset of brain edema by age and gender, highlighting the importance of considering the age and gender of model animals. Similar studies using genetically modified mice are also possible. Our findings indicate that this water intoxication model is effective for explorations of new brain edema treatments.

Developmental Trajectories of Cyber-Aggression among Early Adolescents in Canada: The Impact of Aggression, Gender, and Time Spent Online.

The objective of the present study was to examine developmental trajectories of cyber-aggression in early adolescence, as well as their relationship with predictive factors related to cyber-aggression (e.g., overt aggression, gender, and time spent online). Participants were 384 adolescents from the Lower Mainland of British Columbia, Canada who were in grade six and grade seven at Time 1 of the study (192 boys, Mage = 13.62 years, SD = 0.74 year). Three years of longitudinal data on cyber-aggression, overt aggression, and time spent online were collected via online self-report questionnaires. Findings indicated three different trajectories of cyber-aggression: (a) a low-increasing (85.7% of the sample), (b) a stable trajectory (9.3% of the sample), and (c) a high-decreasing trajectory (4.9% of the sample). Adolescents who reported higher scores on overt aggression and spent more time online were more likely to be in the stable or high-decreasing groups. These findings highlight the importance of studying subgroups regarding the developmental course of cyber-aggression in early adolescence. The implications of present study findings give insight into gender differences and overt aggression among youth to inform cyber-aggression intervention and prevention.

Impact of Gender and School Location on Correlate of Political Education Knowledge in Civic Education and Attitude to Political Participation

This study looked into how students’ attitudes toward political engagement in Edo State and their knowledge of political education concepts in civic education were correlated with their gender and the location of their school. The need for a true and unadulterated democratic process, a solid education that fosters critical and analytical thinking, and responsible and effective citizen engagement became essential for both meaningful development and good governance. There were three hypotheses developed to direct the investigation. For this investigation, a descriptive survey design was used. Using the multi-stage sampling technique, 840 students were selected among 74,440 public Junior Secondary School I-III students in the Edo South Senatorial District. The Knowledge of Political Education Test, an achievement test, and the Students’ Attitude to Political Participation Likert scale, which was intended to gather data from respondents, were the two tools utilized in the study. For the hypotheses, data was gathered and analyzed using Pearson’s “r” at the 0.05 level of significance. The study’s conclusions showed a strong correlation between students’ attitudes on voting, voter registration drives, the rule of law, and the electoral process and political education. It also showed that there are no appreciable differences between gender and school location in terms of students’ attitudes toward political engagement and their understanding of political education concepts. The study recommends amongst others that Civic Education curriculum contents be enhanced to accommodate more of political education concepts. Keywords: Gender, School Location, Political Education Knowledge, Civil Education, Attitude, Political Participation
