Research on Internal Control and Financial Management of Administrative Institutions and Public Institutions under the New Situation

With the development of modern society, the functions of administrative institutions and public institutions are constantly evolving. Under the background of comprehensively deepening reform, higher requirements are put forward for the financial management of administrative institutions and public institutions. The financial management status of administrative institutions and public institutions will directly affect the quality of public services. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the internal control of financial management. By leveraging the constraints and supervision mechanisms of internal control, the transparency and credibility of financial management can be effectively enhanced. However, in the actual internal control and financial management of administrative institutions and public institutions, there are still some problems, which make it difficult to improve the level of financial management and affect the sustainable development of administrative institutions and public institutions. By analyzing the internal control and financial management of administrative institutions and public institutions under the new situation, this article proposes plans such as strengthening the construction of professional management teams, deeply using information technology means, and improving the internal control system, effectively enhancing the management efficiency of administrative institutions and public institutions and better adapting to the development of the times.

The relationship between healthcare workers’ perceptions of epidemic management and manager support in a healthcare institution during the COVID-19 pandemic: scale development study

IntroductionThe aim of the study is to determine the relationship between epidemic management and manager support in healthcare institutions during the COVID-19 pandemic through the perception of healthcare workers. In the research, a scale development study was conducted for the “Epidemic Management Perception Scale”. This scale determines the epidemic management practices in health institutions through the perceptions of healthcare professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic.MethodsThe study is a methodological quantitative research. The data were collected from 365 healthcare workers using a systematic random sampling method. Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were performed for the validity of the “Epidemic Management Perception” Scale. Cronbach’s Alpha value was used in the reliability analysis of the scale. The theoretical model was tested using the Structural Equation Model.ResultsEpidemic Management Perception Scale was introduced to the literature as a valid and reliable assessment form. In the research, relationships between variables were modeled using structural equation modeling. As a result of the research, a high positive and significant relationship was found between healthcare workers’ perception of epidemic management and manager support in the healthcare institution during the COVID-19 pandemic (r = 0.606; R2: %36). In addition, a highly positive and significant relationship was found between healthcare workers’ perception of manager support and epidemic management sub-dimensions. (Planning R2: 30.8%, Organization R2: 26. 2%, Management R2: 21.9% and Control R2: 36.2%).DiscussionIt was determined that manager support played an important role in healthcare workers’ positive response to epidemic management practices in healthcare institutions. The supportive attitude of managers in health institutions is the most important factor in overcoming the epidemic process. It is important to inform health managers about the importance of manager support and to organize the necessary training activities.

Association of risk management practices and financial performance of microfinance institutions in Ethiopia: A two-step system generalized method of moments approach.

This study aims to analyze the relationship between risk management and performance of microfinance institutions (MFIs) in Ethiopia. An explanatory research design was employed by collecting secondary data from the financial statements of 24 sample MFIs from 2013/2014-2022/2024. The study utilized STATA version 15 software to address dynamic endogeneity bias, unobserved heteroskedasticity, and autocorrelation within individual units' errors in dynamic panel data using the generalized method of moments (GMM) estimator. According to the results of this study, both lagged variables, namely return on assets and return on equity, have a positive effect on the financing performance of Ethiopian MFIs. Financial leverage, interest rate risk, and cash-to-total deposits are negatively related to MFIs' returns on assets and return on equity. The relationship between loan loss provisions, loans and advances, and returns on assets is negative and significant but not with returns on equity. Loan-to-deposit ratios are positively related to financial performance indicators, but nonperforming loans are not significantly related to performance indicators. Thus, this study highlights strategies to enhance the financial performance and sustainability of Ethiopian MFIs. To do so, policymakers should foster an enabling environment for MFIs through financial literacy, risk management, and addressing financial challenges. In addition, MFI managers should focus on profitability, liquidity optimization, and effective credit evaluation to enhance performance.

The Performance of Indonesia’s Election Organizers in a Collaborative Management Framework

The purpose of this study is to determine the performance of the organizers of the 2024 Indonesian elections within the framework of collaboration management. This research is important because the facts on the ground show a series of varied problems that obscure the quality of the organizers, namely the KPU, Bawaslu, and DKPP. The further substance of this research is to find out the level of organizers who are actually still far from ideal. Moreover, in the framework of institutional collaboration, which is actually part of an effort to realize public policy, but has not been matched by the competence of election institutions. This research method uses a literature study, whose urgency focuses on the researcher's ability to combine references, theories, and other supporting literature to strengthen the analysis to the findings. The use of the literature study method is important in building a scientific framework, because it utilizes scientific elements from (1) books, (2) journals, (3) newspapers, (4) media news, (5) survey reports, etc. The results of the study show that the performance of the organizers of the 2024 elections is still weak. Weaknesses are evidenced in the pre-election and post-election stages. There are driving and inhibiting factors that weaken performance, one of which is the absence of institutional collaboration management. KPU, Bawaslu, and DKPP still seem to work individually, and a lot of time is spent focusing on internal problems, morals, and codes of ethics of each institution.

Implementasi Manajemen Berbasis Mutu dalam Lembaga Pendidikan Islam

This study stems from the limited research on the implementation of Total Quality Management (TQM) in Islamic educational institutions at the district level, despite its significant impact on the competitiveness and relevance of Islamic education in responding to both local and global dynamics. The aim of this research is to descriptively analyze the planning, implementation, evaluation, and the supporting and inhibiting factors in the application of TQM. A qualitative approach was employed using a multi-case study design involving one Madrasah Aliyah and one modern pesantren, both selected purposively. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis, and then thematically analyzed. The findings reveal that both institutions have implemented TQM principles with distinct approaches: the Madrasah Aliyah emphasizes compliance with the National Education Standards (SNP) integrated with Islamic values, while the pesantren fosters a holistic quality environment covering academic performance, student self-reliance, mastery of classical Islamic texts (kitab kuning), and foreign languages. Key supporting factors include visionary leadership, an adaptive organizational culture, and active teacher involvement. Conversely, the main challenges lie in budget constraints, resistance to change, and difficulties in assessing non-academic quality indicators. The study concludes that synergy between the institutions' internal values and external demands is essential for effective TQM implementation. The implications highlight the need to strengthen evaluation systems and provide contextual, sustainable training for human resources to drive holistic quality improvement.

Unidad de colaboración en la diversidad de posiciones

This article explores the paradoxes surrounding prisons and drug use from a clinical perspective grounded in psychoanalytic and institutional frameworks, taking as its point of departure the phenomenon of death by withdrawal among incarcerated individuals in Ecuadorian prisons. It argues that the coexistence of prohibition and tolerance regarding drug use within prisons reflects a structural contradiction—a mirror of broader cultural and social tensions. This paradox is analyzed not merely as dysfunction but as a systemic symptom and a clinical opportunity. The methodology employed is qualitative, based on action-research conducted by a team of clinical psychologists. Group-based clinical interventions were implemented with both incarcerated individuals and prison staff, aiming to create humanizing spaces within environments marked by desubjectivation. The information gathered was then processed through analytic seminars and a systematic review of key learnings. Findings indicate that the militarization of prisons, coupled with an ambiguous approach to drug use, turns institutional neglect into a form of violence. Drugs in prison serve as regulatory mechanisms for psychic distress, thereby becoming a paradoxical tool of institutional management. The article concludes by advocating for a shift in focus—from the crime to the subject—arguing that death by withdrawal is not accidental but rather a predictable consequence of an institutional structure that denies the right to mental health. Drawing from clinical and psychoanalytic insights, the article proposes treating paradox not only as contradiction but as a gateway to critical intervention within the penal system, enabling the emergence of practices that restore social bonds.

A Radical Monopoly on Sapience

This paper examines the notion of species uplift—the process by which non-human species may be “uplifted” to human levels of consciousness through technological means—by way of a conversation between the fictional world of David Brin’s Uplift series and the social critiques of philosopher and historian Ivan Illich. Instead of taking a moral perspective focused on “animal rights” or concerning myself with the nature of the “human,” my argument considers the effects that institutional management of the development of sapience in any species might have on that species’s ability to engage in poesis—the self-directed creation of one’s reality. Illich’s decades-long critique of the dangerous effects of institutional management of everything from education to healthcare is, in my analysis, dramatized in Brin’s series, in which a formal chain of uplift functions as the sole path to sapience across five interlinked galaxies. My Illichian analysis of the series considers the novels as a sort of narrative experiment testing the effects of institutionally managed sapience and suggests that they and their characters’ perspectives should be a part of any conversation about the possibility of real-world uplift in the future.

Hal-Hal yang Mengganggu, Menggoda, atau Tantangan Bagi Manusia dalam Manajemen Pendidikan Islam (Telaah Ayat-Ayat Al-Qur’an, Hadis)

This article aims to identify and analyze the factors that disturb, tempt, or become obstacles in the implementation of Islamic education management, by referring to verses of the Qur'an and the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad SAW. This research employs a qualitative approach using literature review methods, where data is collected from tafsir books, hadiths, books on Islamic education management, and relevant scholarly journals. The data analysis technique is conducted in a descriptive-qualitative manner with a thematic approach, which involves grouping and interpreting religious texts based on the theme of worldly temptations in the context of leadership and educational management. The results of the study indicate that wealth and position have the potential to obscure the trust of leadership, family can become a trial that hinders justice, while worldly games and the temptations of Satan can lead to neglect and conflict in the management of educational institutions. Therefore, Islamic educational management needs to be built upon spiritual values and Islamic leadership ethics that emphasize trust, justice, and responsibility. This study recommends strengthening faith, internalizing Qur'anic values, and developing a spiritually-based management system to tackle these challenges professionally and with integrity.

Perioperative Anemia Management in Patients Undergoing Gynaecologic Procedures: A 12-Year Multisite Study.

Perioperative anemia is a risk factor for adverse outcomes in surgery. The purpose of this study was to characterize perioperative red blood cell (RBC) transfusion and intravenous (IV) iron use in patients undergoing gynaecologic procedures. This was a retrospective cohort study using data from a multihospital database in Ontario, Canada. Patients aged ≥15 years who underwent gynaecologic surgery with a hospital admission between April 1, 2010 and March 31, 2022 at 3 academic hospitals were identified. The primary outcomes were perioperative (90 days before to 30 days after surgery) RBC transfusion and IV iron utilization in patients undergoing gynaecologic surgery. Secondary outcomes included hospital length of stay, intensive care unit admission, and in-hospital mortality. Of the 5572 patients in our cohort, 27.6% had preoperative anemia and 18.7% received RBC transfusion during the perioperative period. A perioperative RBC transfusion was administered to 29.7% of patients with underlying malignancy and to 7.8% of patients without a diagnosis of malignancy. Of the 60 patients with hemoglobin <80 g/L, 91.7% had an RBC transfusion. Regarding iron therapy, 0.6% of patients received IV iron during the perioperative period. In our cohort, preoperative anemia was associated with increased intensive care unit admissions and hospital length of stay, with patients with hemoglobin <80 g/L at the highest risk. Preoperative anemia was common in this gynaecologic surgery cohort and was associated with adverse clinical outcomes. Our results highlight the importance of implementing an institutional patient blood management program.

저출산 고령사회 미래인재 육성을 위한 일본의 고등교육 혁신 방안 : 그랜드디자인 2040 구상

The Central Council for Education of Japan promoted a variety of higher education policies to address the declining birth rate and revitalize local communities, following its response to the Grand Design for Higher Education 2040 in November 2018. In particular, the “Higher Education Reorganization Initiative through Knowledge Generalization,” confirmed in January 2025, significantly redefined the concept of higher education learners and the nature of educational research in the era of low fertility. This initiative represents a new reform policy in which higher education institutions engage with and contribute to local communities through strategies aimed at expanding international mobility in higher education and enhancing both research and education. In other words, Japan’s vision for future higher education reform emphasizes that strategies for building community through educational research, student support, and institutional management are closely aligned with global innovation strategies. Higher education should evolve through graduate-level reforms that promote learner-centered education, enhance the quality of educational research, and strengthen research capacity by attracting a diverse student population, including international students and working professionals. The system should also flexibly accommodate university consolidation, maintain an appropriate institutional scale, and improve access to higher education based on students’ geographical and socioeconomic backgrounds—for example, through the development of national and public institutions and the articulation between universities and junior colleges. Ultimately, future higher education should promote new innovation strategies grounded in the concept of ‘total knowledge,’ aiming to improve the quality of educational research while ensuring socially equitable opportunities and comprehensive access to higher education.
