The Cultural Roots of Green Stays: Understanding Touristic Accommodation Choices Through the Lens of the Theory of Planned Behavior

Based on the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), this study presents and tests an integrated model to investigate how individual cultural values influence tourists’ decisions when selecting sustainable accommodation. This study aims to examine the cultural impact on sustainable accommodation choices from the perspectives of tourists in three culturally distinct countries. Data were gathered from 1855 participants in Spain, Norway, and Lithuania using a questionnaire survey method. The data was analyzed using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) method, with statistical analysis based on Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). This study found that uncertainty avoidance and long-term orientation significantly influence attitude. Additionally, collectivism and power distance notably impact subjective norms, while masculinity affects perceived behavioral control. Tourists’ intentions regarding sustainable accommodation choices were determined to be influenced by attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control. These findings contribute to the theoretical discussion of sustainable purchasing by emphasizing the intricate role of individual cultural values and provide practical insights for developing marketing strategies that resonate with these values.

Health literacy profiles in kidney transplanted patients: A cluster analysis.

Health literacy is important in chronic conditions, such as kidney transplantation. Understanding patients' health literacy profiles can assist tailoring follow-up and educational programmes to the health literacy needs of vulnerable kidney transplant recipients. This approach enabled us to cluster patients according to their profiles of challenges and strengths in different health literacy domains. This study aimed to identify different health literacy profiles within kidney transplant recipients and what characterized the different profiles. Cross-sectional study. One hundred ninety-five kidney transplanted recipients were included. We used the self-reported Health Literacy Questionnaire and analyzed using Ward's method (hierarchical cluster approach). We also collected background characteristics and clinical variables, including psychological distress (Hopkins Symptoms Checklist) and perceived health status (visual analogue scale, EuroQol-5D). The analysis revealed four clusters with substantial differences in health literacy profiles. One cluster's patients had the most challenges in all health literacy domains constituting 24% of the sample. Compared to the other three clusters, this cluster was associated with shorter duration of kidney disease, higher number of patients in dialysis before transplantation, higher percentage of male patients, lower number of kidneys from living donors, higher number of patients not working and higher representation of psychological distress. All four clusters reported the most challenges in the same domain: the ability to critically appraise health information. In kidney transplant recipients, profiling clusters with the Health Literacy Questionnaire and Ward's method aids in identifying health literacy needs in vulnerable groups, enabling transplant professionals to offer tailored health literacy support.

Determinants of cross-border cultural integration: Case studies of the EU Basque and Upper Rhine cross-border regions

The spatial integration of cross-border regions is a complex multidimensional process. Cultural integration across borders is a crucial element in broader cross-border regionalism and the intensification of economic transactions. While cultural integration has been viewed as a contingent ontological determinant for establishing cross-border integration and cooperation, there is a lack of empirical evidence on cultural integration. This study sets out a new methodological framework to measure the extent of spatio-cultural integration in cross-border regions. A P-ITEMS model containing six determinants of cultural integration was developed using primary data obtained through mixed methods of qualitative perceptual mapping and quantitative questionnaires. Two European Union cross-border regions – the Basque region and the Upper Rhine region – were selected as case studies, representing two different contexts with varied characteristics, to assess the extent to which the methodological framework can enhance understanding of the cultural integration process. The study shows that this new model can provide a range of findings and perspectives depending on the qualitative or quantitative methodological lens applied. The model revealed that the Basque cross-border region is strongly culturally integrated from both a qualitative and quantitative perspective, with high cross-border interactions, and its residents on both sides of the national border share a common perceptual image of the cross-border region despite its difficulty. In contrast, in the Upper Rhine cross-border region, this joint perceptual representation is missing from the qualitative data; however, the quantitative data indicates that considerable cultural interactions and integration take place.

A review of the literature on sedentary behavior

Sedentary behavior (such as sitting, watching TV, and driving) is characterized by little physical movement and low energy expenditure (≤1.5 metabolic equivalents). Previous studies have shown associations between sedentary behavior and adverse outcomes, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and death. This study is a narrative review that aims to summarize the assessment tools for sedentary behavior as well as the association between sedentary behavior and adverse health outcomes. Additionally, guidelines for future research on sedentary behavior are discussed.Sedentary behavior is assessed using subjective methods such as questionnaire responses or objective methods such as accelerometer readings. Although questionnaire methods have low validity, they allow researchers to collect information regarding the purpose or occasion of physical activity at a low cost. Accelerometers are expensive but collect precise information on the duration of sedentary behavior. Sedentary behavior is a risk factor for the incidence of cardiovascular diseases and cancer and associated mortality. The association between sedentary behavior and some diseases such as cancer type have been reported. Previous studies have found a dose-response relationship between sedentary time and adverse outcomes. Research on the associations between sedentary behavior and the subtypes of stroke, heart disease, and orthopedic diseases is insufficient; further studies are needed to clarify these associations. Recently, sedentary behavior has been the focus of guidelines in some countries because of increasing evidence on its adverse consequences. Intervention studies have shown that taking breaks and replacing sedentary behavior with vigorous or high-intensity physical activity benefit the health of participants. Future studies are needed to examine the cutoff values of sitting time that reduce the risk of morbidity for each disease and the health effects of interventions that shorten sitting time.

Exploring The Impact and Challenges of Chatgpt on Future Primary and Secondary Education from The Perspective of Current Normal Students

Nowadays, the application of ChatGPT has received widespread attention, but there are still shortcomings at the education level. This article explores the impact and challenges of ChatGPT on future primary and secondary education from the perspective of current normal school students through a survey questionnaire method. The analysis shows that ChatGPT has penetrated the lives of normal students as a commonly used tool. Most respondents believe that ChatGPT will have a positive impact on primary and secondary education. However, regarding the educational evaluation of ChatGPT and the dependence of students on ChatGPT, respondents expressed deep concerns. Based on this, this article suggests that teachers should check the generated content and then integrate it into their curriculum design and use ChatGPT to automatically generate multi-form teaching resources. Teachers can use ChatGPT as a language companion for students' foreign language learning, but they must grasp the time for students to interact with artificial intelligence. Teachers should guide students in the use of ChatGPT, teach students to face the generated content, think from different angles, and form critical thinking. Teachers should educate students on ethics in the teaching process, emphasizing the importance of academic integrity, and at the same time, enriching the ways of evaluating students to ensure the fairness of the examination.

Reflections on Social Justice in the Promotion of Biotechnology Crops and Institutionalisation of Food Values among Smallholder Farmers in Central Uganda

The academic discourse of agricultural biotechnology carries a lot of information on how biotechnology crops are crucial in realizing food security once they are fully adopted by farmers. Biotechnology crops are seen as the solution to ameliorate the Malthusian catastrophe of population increase threatening food security. While studies on agricultural biotechnology are increasing, they mainly focus on how the new agriculture science produces crops with desirable traits in supporting food production interventions. Few studies have concerned themselves with the social justice implications among smallholder farmers, posed by institutionalised agricultural biotechnology knowledge with its sophistication. This paper addresses itself to the above lacuna. The data collection used an embedded mixed method design with focus group discussions, in-depth interviews, non-participant observation, and questionnaire survey methods. The paper shows that mechanisms that are used to promote biotechnology crops are highly institutionalized. The institutions not only develop the biotechnology crops but also engage in mechanisms that encourage smallholder farmers to adopt these crops. The major social justice concerns addressed by this study are plant diversity, equity and commercialization of biotechnology-generated seeds/crops, participation, and farming choices

The study also found that social networks play an important supportive role in career development, and that extensive social networks increase career satisfaction. Individuals with high motivation were more resilient in the face of external barriers and were willing to retrain to improve their occupational skills.DiscussionTo promote career development in emerging industries, labor market policies should optimize and create fair and inclusive work environments for emerging industries. By eliminating gender, age, and racial discrimination and providing employee support programs, career development satisfaction and opportunities can be effectively enhanced.ConclusionRapid technological updates, high work pressure, and cross-cultural barriers in emerging industries are the main challenges to career development today. This study suggests that governments and enterprises should jointly provide flexible vocational training and support policies to help practitioners adapt to the rapidly changing occupational environment.

Effectiveness of Coronary Artery Disease Health Education among the patients of Coronary Artery Disease in Tertiary Cardiac Centre

Background and Aims: Secondary prevention of coronary artery disease is vital in preventing the future cardiac events. Inadequate knowledge of the disease is related to non-compliance with the treatment therapy which directly results in disease progression and its complication. The objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness of health education about coronary artery disease among the patients of coronary artery disease in a tertiary cardiac centre. Methods: A quantitative, prospective, interventional research design was designed to collect the data by non-probability convenience sampling method. Patients diagnosed with coronary artery disease and admitted in different wards of Shahid Gangalal National Heart Centre were included. Data was collected from July 2022 to December 2022 in three phases: prior to health education; within 24 hours of health education and after 3 months. A semi structured face to face interview was used to collect data from the patients, which was then filled in the web-based questionnaire and appropriate statistical methods were used for analysis. Results: A total of 167 patients were enrolled during the study period. Only 145 (86.8%) patients completed the 3rd phase of data collection. There was a significant improvement in patients’ overall knowledge (P value; <.01) as well as knowledge regarding medical (P value; <.01), coronary artery disease risk factors (P value; <.01), exercise (P value; <.01), nutrition (P value; <.01) and psychological risk (P value; <.05). There was a significant improvement (P value; <.01) related to behavior related characteristics like smoking, tobacco consumption, alcohol consumption and physical activity. However, correlation between health behaviors and post intervention knowledge showed a non-significant weakly positive relation of knowledge with education (r=.081), whereas there was non-significant weakly negative relation with physical activity (r=-.0126). Conclusion: The educational intervention has significant improvement in level of knowledge and change in behavior pattern among the patients of coronary artery disease. This study demonstrates that targeted health education programs can lead to significant improvements in knowledge and behavior among coronary artery disease patients, potentially reducing hospital readmission rates and promoting better long-term disease management.

Digitized fuel load survey in commercial and university office buildings for fire safety assessment

Fuel load significantly affects fire development in compartments, and its design value derives from the statistical results of numerous surveys. This work enhances the fuel load database by employing a digitized survey method to assess 27 university and commercial offices in Hong Kong and Mainland, China. The results revealed significant differences in fuel load densities: university offices averaged 382 MJ/m2 (SD: 297 MJ/m2) and commercial offices averaged 1804 MJ/m2 (SD: 1319 MJ/m2). Moreover, it proposed an online questionnaire method to overcome onsite access limitations. Furthermore, it identified higher fuel load densities in commercial offices due to higher paper-made content and greater occupancy density than university offices. The fuel load of university offices was lower than that in previous surveys and design codes, while commercial fuel load was higher. Notably, there is an increasing tendency of fuel load density and plastic combustible composition over the years. Additionally, it considers that Gompertz distribution better fits cumulative probabilities of fuel load density data with a small sample size. Overall, it provides a valuable database for future fire scenario design, fire codes edition, and fire safety assessment and discusses future collaboration with AI applications.

Correlation Among Teacher ICT Teaching, Teacher Immediacy Behaviors, Teacher–Student Rapport, and Student Engagement in Smart Classroom Teaching

With the constant evolution of information and communication technology (ICT), smart classrooms have profoundly influenced Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) by presenting advanced ICT that markedly improved the effectiveness and quality of teaching and learning. Teacher communication technology teaching and immediacy behaviors are crucial for leading and reforming the teaching and learning process in smart classrooms. Meanwhile, teacher–student rapport and student engagement are also key factors that influence ESD. This study aims to investigate the correlation among teacher ICT teaching, teacher immediacy behaviors, teacher–student rapport and student engagement in smart classroom teaching. We surveyed 1032 Chinese university students using the questionnaire method and analyzed the data using structural equation modeling (SEM). The findings revealed that teacher ICT teaching and immediacy behaviors exerted a noteworthy positive impact on student engagement and teacher–student rapport. Meanwhile, teacher ICT teaching markedly positively correlated with verbal immediacy but markedly negatively correlated with nonverbal immediacy. These findings have practical implications for ESD: in smart classrooms, teacher ICT teaching and their immediacy behaviors serve as vital factors in augmenting teaching quality, encouraging student engagement and fostering harmonious teacher–student rapport. Thus, teachers must harness their ICT teaching skills, flexibly assimilate instant behaviors into the teaching process and interact with students in a richer and more diversified manner to effectively augment teaching quality and promote the overall and sustainable growth of students. Furthermore, this study can inform the expansion of smart classrooms, which in the future should not only offer teachers a convenient teaching and learning environment but also evade ICT that limits teacher nonverbal immediacy behaviors.

Situating inservice teacher training in reform community of developing holistic competence to engage practice

This article investigates the situating of inservice teacher training (TT) in teaching-learning, education, and other sector reform communities for developing holistic competence to engage practice. It vignettes a holistic inservice TT resilience to situate in an often transient reform community of developing capacity to engage practice, including competence-based education (CBE) reform that often spews vague ideas in pieces amid low incentive and commitment to undergo practice. To assist, this article adopts the situated learning lens to investigate the extent to which contextualising inservice TT in authentic teaching-learning reform community resources develops competence to engage practice. In this holistic regard, the article mixes text, interview, and questionnaire methods involving 420 Cameroon inservice TT-CBE reform community subjects as part of the global education-for-all-practice reform flow. From findings, few teachers undergo narrow inservice training and lead few partners in reform oration, resenting few means and evading complex teaching-learning reform community practices. Inservice TT’s bare oration of public education policy and reform community changes prepares teachers to facilitate teacher-centred acquisition of less competence than what learners need to engage practice. The article opines ongoing inservice TT preplanning-research, onsite activity, and outcome sustainability themes to further situate in authentic reform community resources to develop holistic competence to engage complex practice.
