Pearson correlation

This study examines the relationship between cognitive processes and job performance in teachers at the Cruz del Norte Educational Unit, focusing on attention, planning, organization, anxiety, and job stress. A mixed-method design was applied, combining quantitative and qualitative techniques such as psychometric tests, Pearson correlation, multiple regression analysis, Student’s t-test, the Delphi method, and the Ishikawa diagram. The results show that executive functions, particularly planning and organization, have a significant positive impact on job performance. Teachers with higher levels of these skills demonstrate better performance, with strong correlations (r = 0.72, p = 0.001; r = 0.65, p = 0.003). In contrast, anxiety and stress act as limiting factors. Multiple regression analysis indicates that anxiety (β = -0.4946, p < 0.0001) and stress (β = -0.3721, p < 0.001) negatively predict job performance. Additionally, job indiscipline—reflected in absenteeism and lateness—shows a strong negative correlation with performance (r = -0.74, p < 0.000). These findings highlight the importance of time management and organizational commitment, as well as the need to implement training and psychological support strategies to improve teacher performance and educational quality.

این مطالعه به بررسی رابطه بین فرایندهای شناختی و عملکرد شغلی در معلمان واحد آموزشی Cruz del Norte می‌پردازد و بر توجه، برنامه‌ریزی، سازمان‌دهی، اضطراب و استرس شغلی تمرکز دارد. از طرح پژوهشی ترکیبی استفاده شده است که تکنیک‌های کمی و کیفی مانند آزمون‌های روان‌سنجی، همبستگی پیرسون، تحلیل رگرسیون چندگانه، آزمون t استیودنت، روش دلفی و نمودار ایشیکاوا را ترکیب می‌کند. نتایج نشان می‌دهد که کارکردهای اجرایی، به‌ویژه برنامه‌ریزی و سازمان‌دهی، تأثیر مثبت معناداری بر عملکرد شغلی دارند. معلمانی که سطوح بالاتری از این مهارت‌ها را دارا هستند، عملکرد بهتری از خود نشان می‌دهند و همبستگی‌های قوی (r = ۰.۷۲, p = ۰.۰۰۱؛ r = ۰.۶۵, p = ۰.۰۰۳) مشاهده شده است. در مقابل، اضطراب و استرس به‌عنوان عوامل محدودکننده عمل می‌کنند. تحلیل رگرسیون چندگانه نشان می‌دهد که اضطراب (β = -۰.۴۹۴۶, p < ۰.۰۰۰۱) و استرس (β = -۰.۳۷۲۱, p < ۰.۰۰۱) پیش‌بینی‌کننده منفی عملکرد شغلی هستند. همچنین، بی‌انضباطی شغلی—که در غیبت و تأخیر منعکس می‌شود—همبستگی منفی قوی با عملکرد دارد (r = -۰.۷۴, p < ۰.۰۰۰). این یافته‌ها اهمیت مدیریت زمان و تعهد سازمانی و همچنین ضرورت اجرای راهبردهای آموزشی و حمایت روان‌شناختی برای بهبود عملکرد معلمان و کیفیت آموزشی را برجسته می‌کند.

This study examined technological self-efficacy and classroom technology use among early childhood teachers at Cabangahan Elementary School, Siaton, Negros Oriental. Employing a quantitative descriptive-correlational design, the researchers collected self-reported data from five teachers using an expert-reviewed, Google Forms questionnaire. Descriptive frequencies, percentages, and five-point weighted means were used to characterize teachers’ profiles, basic technology skills, confidence in pedagogical integration, troubleshooting ability, frequency of technology use, diversity of digital tools, and perceived effects on children’s learning and engagement. The reported mean scores were 4.56 for basic technology skills, 4.56 for pedagogical integration, and 4.52 for technical troubleshooting, all interpreted as highly confident. Classroom technology use was rated 4.60 for frequency, 4.16 for diversity of tools, and 4.76 for perceived learning engagement. The study reported a very strong positive Pearson correlation between self-efficacy and classroom technology implementation (r = .94); no corresponding significance test was provided. Results suggest that the participating teachers perceived themselves as technologically capable and frequent users of digital resources, although the range of tools used was comparatively limited. The proposed action plan prioritizes device access, technical support, targeted professional learning, and classroom monitoring. Given the five-person, single-school sample and reliance on self-report, the findings should be interpreted as local descriptive evidence, not as proof of causal effects on children’s outcomes.

This study aimed to examine the role of self-efficacy and pressure of coach expectations in predicting the performance of adolescent athletes. This study used a cross-sectional survey design involving 142 athletes aged 16–19 years from regional and national sports clubs. Data analysis included Pearson correlation test, independent-samples t-test, and multiple linear regression. The results showed that self-efficacy was positively and significantly associated with athlete performance, while coach expectation pressure was negatively and significantly related to athlete performance. In addition, there were differences in performance by gender, with male athletes reporting higher performance scores than female athletes. When gender was included as a control variable in the regression model, self-efficacy and coach expectations pressure remained significant predictors of athlete performance. Overall, these findings suggest that internal psychological factors and pressures from the sports environment play a role in explaining variations in adolescent athlete performance. This study emphasizes the importance of strengthening self-efficacy and the application of realistic and supportive expectations of coaches in the process of coaching athletes. Further longitudinal research is needed to examine this relationship in more depth.

The purpose of this study is to examine how parentification and perceived stress impact adolescents' psychological and behavioural adjustment. This study explored the associations between parentification, perceived stress, and disruptive behaviour, and the predictive and mediating effects of these variables. The method of the research was descriptive cross sectional, purposive sampling was used for gathering samples, the number of samples obtained was 250.The methods used were descriptive cross sectional design, purposive sampling was used for sampling. The Parentification Inventory, Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) and Disruptive Behaviour Scale were used to collect the data. The SPSS Version 26 was used for descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, regression analysis and Hayes’ PROCESS Macro (Model 4). Results showed that parentification was not a significant predictor of perceived stress and disruptive behaviour. Perceived stress, however, was a strong predictor of disruptive behaviour. Indirect effect of parentification on disruptive behaviour via perceived stress was also non-significant. Impression of stress seems to be a key factor related to disruptive behaviour among adolescents, while the impact of parentification could differ based on contextual and cultural factors. The results emphasize the need for stress reduction and psychological health promotion initiatives for youth in Pakistan.

Introduction: Ecuadorian higher education has experienced different dynamics in scientific production, presenting a significant challenge regarding the integration and participation of university students. The problem lies in a lack of knowledge analyzing the correlation between academic anxiety and scientific production in a university context in the city of Ambato, Ecuador. Objective: To determine the correlational association between academic anxiety and scientific production among university students in the city of Ambato in 2025. Methodology: The research employed a correlational approach, a quantitative methodology, and a non-experimental design. Data was collected using a structured survey administered to 248 university students, selected through convenience sampling. Results and Discussion: The main results show that 31.45% of students experience physical fatigue when conducting research activities, 57.26% perceive that they are not meeting the demands of a research project, 47.58% avoid engaging in scientific research, and a Pearson correlation coefficient of -0.027 was obtained, demonstrating a negative association between the variables studied. Conclusion: The university students experience physiological, cognitive, and behavioral difficulties when producing a scientific product, where a lack of experience and student support makes scientific research a difficult and uninteresting field for university students to explore.

Although physical activity enjoyment is associated with athletes’ psychological outcomes, the mechanisms underlying its relationship with mental well-being remain unclear. This study examined the mediating role of loneliness among athletes. A correlational survey design was employed. The participants consisted of 350 athletes selected through criterion sampling, including 178 females (Mage= 20.58 ± 1.99) and 172 males (Mage= 21.91 ± 4.88). Data were collected using the Physical Activity Enjoyment Scale, UCLA Loneliness Scale–Short Form, and Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-Being Scale. Pearson correlation analysis and PROCESS Macro Model 4 mediation analysis were conducted, and indirect effects were tested using 5,000 bootstrap samples. Physical activity enjoyment was positively associated with mental well-being (r= .586, p< .01) and negatively associated with loneliness (a= −.196, p< .01). Loneliness was negatively associated with mental well-being (b= −.447, p< .01). The mediation analysis revealed a significant indirect effect of physical activity enjoyment on mental well-being through loneliness (indirect effect= .088, 95% CI [.026, .147]). These findings indicate that enjoyment of physical activity contributes to athletes’ mental well-being and that loneliness partially explains this relationship. The results emphasize the importance of considering social connectedness and psychological experiences in understanding athletes’ well-being.

Curriculum reform depends on how school leaders support its everyday implementation. This study examined the relationship between curriculum leadership practices and perceived curriculum implementation effectiveness among public school heads in Albay, Ligao City, and Iriga City, Philippines. Guided by Hallinger and Murphy’s instructional leadership model, a cross-sectional descriptive-correlational design was used. Fifty school heads voluntarily completed a questionnaire containing 60 items across six subscales. Analyses included descriptive statistics, internal consistency estimates, Pearson correlation, and simultaneous multiple regression, supplemented by rank-based correlation, robust standard errors, and influential-case checks. Respondents reported very high leadership practices (M = 4.702, SD = 0.375) and implementation effectiveness (M = 4.678, SD = 0.359). However, 71.2% of item responses received the highest rating, indicating a ceiling effect. Overall leadership and implementation scores were strongly associated (r = .804, p < .001). The regression model explained 66.8% of the observed variance. Positive learning climate was the only dimension with a significant unique association (B = 0.535, β = .595, p = .002), a finding retained in sensitivity analyses. Mission definition and instructional management did not contribute significant additional variance after their overlap with learning climate was considered. Findings suggest that collaboration, recognition, inclusion, and professional learning deserve attention in curriculum support. Nevertheless, the voluntary sample, common source of measurement, unverified content validity, and overlapping predictors limit interpretation. The results describe perceptions rather than independently demonstrated effectiveness and cannot establish causation. Larger studies using validated instruments, teacher reports, observations, and documentary evidence are needed to test these relationships.

Academic stress is a significant psychological and educational concern among undergraduate students because university study involves high academic workload, frequent examinations, strict performance expectations, overlapping deadlines, adjustment to new learning environments, and crucial decisions about future careers. Anxiety may increase substantially when students perceive academic demands as exceeding their available coping resources, whereas self-efficacy refers to students' internal beliefs about their capability to successfully organize and execute courses of action required to manage academic tasks. The present study proposes to examine the complex relationship among academic stress, anxiety, and self-efficacy among undergraduate students. A quantitative, cross-sectional, correlational research design will be used. Undergraduate students meeting the inclusion criteria will be recruited using an appropriate non-probability sampling technique. Data will be collected using a demographic information sheet and standardized self-report measures of academic stress, anxiety, and general/academic self-efficacy. Descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, Pearson correlation, and multiple regression will be used to examine the study variables. The findings may assist counselling psychologists, student-support services, faculty members, and educational institutions in identifying modifiable psychological factors relevant to undergraduate adjustment.

Effective school leadership is vital to school management, teacher performance, and quality education. This study examined the leadership skills, core behavioral skills, and administrative practices of public secondary school heads in the Schools Division of Cagayan de Oro City during the school year 2025–2026. It assessed key leadership and behavioral competencies and determined their relationships with administrative practices. A descriptive-correlational design was used, with universal sampling of 105 school heads. Data were gathered through a standardized questionnaire anchored on the Results-Based Performance Management System and the Philippine Professional Standards for School Heads. Frequency, percentage, weighted mean, standard deviation, and Pearson correlation were used. Findings showed high levels of leadership skills, core behavioral skills, and administrative practices. People development was the strongest leadership dimension, while teamwork and innovation were the most evident core behavioral competencies. Managing school operations and resources, and focusing on teaching and learning, were among the strongest administrative practices. The study found significant positive relationships between leadership skills and administrative practices, and between core behavioral skills and administrative practices. The study concludes that effective school leadership requires a combination of people leadership, professional behavior, instructional leadership, strategic management, and administrative competence. It recommends needs-based leadership development, mentoring and coaching, stronger results-focused practices, ongoing instructional leadership training, stakeholder engagement, reflective practice, and individualized professional development plans to support the continued growth of school heads.

This study examined the relationships among teachers’ core behavioral competencies, professional performance, and students’ learning achievement in Music, Arts, Physical Education, and Health (MAPEH) in the Department of Education Districts of Ilog I and II, Negros Occidental, Philippines. Using a descriptive-correlational research design, the study involved 38 MAPEH teachers and 190 students from ten public secondary schools, selected through total enumeration and proportional sampling, respectively. Data were gathered using a standardized questionnaire based on DepEd Order No. 2, s. 2015, teachers’ Individual Performance Commitment and Review Form (IPCRF) ratings, students’ academic records, and supplementary key informant interviews. Descriptive statistics and Pearson correlation analysis were employed. Findings revealed very high competencies in self-management (M = 3.826) and professionalism and ethics (M = 3.736), while result focus, teamwork, service orientation, and innovation were rated high. Teachers demonstrated very satisfactory professional performance (M = 3.557), whereas students achieved satisfactory academic performance in MAPEH (M = 84.142). Significant positive relationships were reported between result focus and teachers’ performance (r = .869, p = .028), innovation and students’ learning achievement (r = .797, p = .043), and teachers’ performance and students’ learning achievement (r = .797, p = .043). The findings highlighted the relevance of result-oriented practices, instructional innovation, and professional competence in supporting educational outcomes. Continuous professional development and a one-year competency enhancement plan were recommended to strengthen teaching effectiveness and student achievement. The study aligns with Sustainable Development Goal 4 (Quality Education) by emphasizing teacher development and improved learning outcomes. Its contribution to educational and institutional sustainability lies in supporting continuous professional improvement, instructional innovation, and sustained educational quality in public secondary schools.

This study examined the implementation and perceived effectiveness of Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) strategies in science among teachers and students in five public junior high schools in Panabo City, Davao del Norte. Anchored in Constructivist Learning Theory, Social Constructivism, Progressive Inquiry, and Cognitive Load Theory, it employed a quantitative descriptive-correlational design. Respondents comprised 31 Science teachers selected through total enumeration and 100 Grade 10 students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using validated researcher-developed questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and independent samples t-tests. Teachers rated IBL implementation as Highly Implemented (M = 4.66) and its effectiveness as Highly Effective (M = 4.71), whereas students rated implementation as Implemented (M = 4.17) and effectiveness as Effective (M = 4.09). Significant positive relationships emerged between implementation and perceived effectiveness, with stronger associations in students’ assessments. Significant differences between teacher and student ratings indicated disparities in their classroom perceptions. The findings concerned student engagement, conceptual understanding, scientific inquiry skills, collaborative learning, and problem-solving abilities. The study proposed the INQUIRE+ Professional Development Program to strengthen Science teachers’ inquiry-based instruction through coaching, collaborative lesson study, reflective practice, and systematic monitoring and evaluation. It aligns with Sustainable Development Goal 4 (Quality Education) by supporting improved Science instruction and continuing teacher development. Its contribution to educational and institutional sustainability lies in promoting sustained professional learning, school-based collaboration, and evidence-informed instructional improvement across participating schools and varied local classroom learning contexts. Further evaluation of the proposed program is needed to establish its effectiveness after implementation.

This study examined the usability of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) tools, teacher cognition regarding ICT integration, and students’ technical proficiency in Electrical Installation and Maintenance (EIM) among junior high school students in pasig. Specifically, it investigated how teachers use simulation software, computer-aided design (CAD) tools, and instructional videos/multimedia resources, the relationship between ICT usability and teacher cognition, and the influence of teacher demographics on these variables. A descriptive-correlational research design was employed, with data collected from 33 teacher-respondents through total enumeration, representing the entire available population of EIM educators in the selected schools. Statistical analyses, including means, standard deviations, t-tests, ANOVA, and pearson correlation, were used to interpret the results. Findings revealed that teachers extensively used instructional videos and multimedia resources, while simulation software and CAD tools were underutilized. Teacher cognition regarding ICT integration was generally high in multimedia resources but low for specialized CAD tools in terms of awareness, knowledge, and operational skills. Students demonstrated proficiency in wiring diagram accuracy and installation skills and were highly proficient in safety practices. Significant differences in ICT usability and teacher cognition were influenced by age, sex, grade level taught, and years of teaching experience, whereas students’ technical proficiency was not significantly affected by these demographic factors. Correlational analysis showed that simulation software, CAD tools, and multimedia resources positively influenced teacher cognition, while only instructional videos and multimedia resources significantly impacted students’ safety practices. Based on these findings, a blended ICT-based instructional framework was proposed, integrating simulation software, CAD tools, and multimedia resources with hands-on practice, assessment, and feedback to enhance both teacher competence and student technical proficiency. This study highlights the importance of ICT integration in technical education, emphasizing that teacher competence with ICT tools enhances instructional delivery, while practical application remains essential for developing students’ technical skills in EIM.

Background Academic burnout is a concern among undergraduate sports majors. Although previous studies have emphasized training- and school-related stressors, less is known about the role of family resources and related psychological mechanisms. Objective This study examined the associations among family capital, academic self-efficacy, and academic burnout, including differences across family capital dimensions and the mediating role of academic self-efficacy. Methods This cross-sectional study included 325 first- and second-year students enrolled in sports-related degree programs at a sports university in Yunnan Province, China. Pearson correlation, one-way ANOVA, and mediation analysis using PROCESS Model 4 with 5,000 bootstrap resamples were conducted. Results Family capital was positively associated with academic self-efficacy (r = 0.554, p < 0.001) and negatively associated with academic burnout (r = −0.575, p < 0.001). Cultural and social capital were significantly associated with higher self-efficacy and lower burnout, whereas economic capital was not significantly associated with burnout. Students with lower family capital reported lower self-efficacy and higher burnout. Academic self-efficacy partially mediated the association between family capital and burnout (B = −0.52, 95% CI [−0.66, −0.40]), accounting for 44.33% of the total effect. Conclusion Family capital was associated with academic burnout among undergraduate sports majors, with stronger associations for cultural and social capital than for economic capital. Academic self-efficacy represented a partial mediating pathway. Universities should provide targeted academic guidance, learning support, and educational and career information for students with limited family resources and lower academic self-efficacy.

Currently, no practical instrument is available to evaluate sleep health literacy in nurses. This study aimed to translate the Sleep Health Communication scale into Chinese and examine its psychometric properties. Translation was performed following the standard procedures of the classic Brislin translation model. Cross-sectional survey was conducted between May 1 and June 1, 2025, in a large general hospital located in Southeast China. The survey battery consisted of demographic information, the Sleep Health Literacy scale (SHL), and the Anxiety and Preoccupation about Sleep Questionnaire (APSQ). Random subsample 1 ( n = 317) was used for item analysis and exploratory factor analysis (EFA). Random subsample 2 ( n = 318) was utilised to test internal consistency, perform confirmatory factor analysis, and calculate convergent validity and discriminant validity. Forty randomly selected participants were retested one month later to assess test-retest reliability. Six experts in relevant disciplines were recruited to evaluate content validity. Concurrent validity was assessed via Pearson correlation analysis between the total score of the SHC and the overall score of the APSQ. The Chinese version of the SHC scale comprised 2 dimensions with a total of 9 items. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) supported this two-factor model with acceptable model fit indices: χ 2 /df = 2.946, RMSEA = 0.078. The overall Cronbach’s α coefficient of the scale was 0.889, and the McDonald’s ω coefficient was 0.894. The test-retest reliability yielded an r value of 0.881, and the two-way mixed-effects model intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) value of 0.866. The item-level content validity index (I-CVI) ranged from 0.833 to 1.000, and the scale-level average content validity index (S-CVI/Ave) was 0.944. Concurrent validity was calculated by correlating total SHC scores with total APSQ scores; the correlation coefficient was r = − 0.187( p < 0.01). The SHC-C exhibited preliminary reliability and validity. Notably, the overall concurrent validity of this scale with the APSQ was weak. The two-item Critical Application factor exhibited an even weaker, non-significant correlation and limited internal consistency. Its psychometric properties should be further validated using larger and more diverse samples. Not applicable.

School heads’ leadership practices, such as how they set direction, support instruction, and build trust, are consistently linked to teachers’ work satisfaction, which in turn shapes motivation, commitment, and retention. The main objective of this study was to determine the School Heads’ Instructional Leadership Practices and Teachers’ Work Satisfaction in selected districts of the Division of Bukidnon during the School Year 2026–2027. Specifically, this aimed to find out the level of respondents’ perception of school heads’ instructional leadership practices; ascertain the level of work satisfaction in terms of the motivator factor; and determine whether a relationship exists between school heads’ instructional leadership practices and teachers’ work satisfaction in terms of the hygiene factor and as well as motivator factor. The study used a descriptive-correlational design and included two hundred five (205) Key Stage 2 teachers selected through universal sampling. Data were collected using a researcher-made questionnaire and analyzed using weighted mean, Pearson correlation, and multiple regression. Findings showed that instructional leadership was highly practiced, especially in aligning the school vision. Teachers also reported high job satisfaction in both hygiene and motivator factors. Instructional leadership was positively related to teachers’ work satisfaction. It also significantly predicted work satisfaction, with school vision alignment being the strongest predictor. It is concluded that instructional leadership is most effective when school heads ensure that the school’s mission and academic goals are perfectly aligned with the school-wide program and the current DepEd curriculum standards. School heads should improve teamwork, teaching, resource use, staff training, recognition, and the school environment.

Access to functional digital infrastructure is a prerequisite for teachers to convert information and communication Technology (ICT) competence into classroom practice, yet the quality and distribution of infrastructure remain uneven in many developing education systems. This paper examined the effect of the status of institutional ICT infrastructure and digital tools on teacher use of digital technologies in public junior schools (JS) in Kakamega County, Kenya. Relying on the Theory of Organizational Information Processing, the study used a convergent parallel mixed-methods design involving 332 responding JSS teachers, 11 Sub-County Directors of Education and observations from 78 schools. Factor analysis of 12 infrastructure indicators produced a factor-based index of 3.500, interpreted as good, although important differences were evident across infrastructure components. Electricity, computer rooms, broadband connectivity, and technical support were relatively strong, whereas specialized digital tools, suitable educational software and security mechanisms were weaker. Teachers most frequently identified inadequate computers/devices (26.8%) and unstable or absent internet connectivity (22.9%) as the leading infrastructure challenges. Pearson correlation showed a significant positive moderate relationship between infrastructure status and technology use (r = .417, p < .001). In Model 1, infrastructure significantly predicted technology use (B = .525, β approximately .417, p < .001; R² = .174). After adjustment for gender, age, education, teaching experience, subject and JSS enrolment, the detailed regression table reported B = .579, β = .465, t = 7.94, p < .001, R² = .473 and adjusted R² = .451. The null hypothesis was rejected. The paper concludes that functional infrastructure and appropriate digital tools are essential enabling conditions, but infrastructure development should address advanced tools, software, connectivity, maintenance and security rather than focusing only on basic provision. This study also recommends that the infrastructure budgets should move beyond hardware acquisition to include suitable educational software, specialized digital tools, maintenance, backups, antivirus protection and user-safety measures.

This study assessed the timeliness and delays in the payment of tuition fees among college students at Mallig Plains Colleges, Inc. (MPCI) during the academic year 2026 as the foundational basis for crafting a responsive financial monitoring plan. Employing a quantitative descriptive-correlational research design, the study gathered data from 60 randomly selected college students across six academic programs. Statistical analysis including frequencies, means, t-tests, Pearson correlation, and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) revealed that gender, course, year level, primary sponsor, and parental occupation exhibited no significant relationship with payment timeliness. Instead, punctuality was strongly tied to situational and behavioral dynamics. The findings demonstrated that timely tuition fee payments exert a very high positive impact on students’ academic and administrative fluidity and psychosocial stability, effectively removing administrative barriers and mitigating social stigmas. Conversely, delayed payments generated severe ramifications, acting as a direct catalyst for significant institutional bottlenecks and profound socio-economic and emotional barriers, including heightened exam-week anxiety and dropout tendencies. Income volatility due to seasonal agricultural livelihoods and emergency health expenses were identified as the primary economic triggers of payment friction. Alongside, clear institutional communication, accessible payment infrastructure, and strict policy enforcement acted as crucial external determinants of student compliance. While payment timeliness remained uniform across demographics, a significant difference emerged between genders regarding their financial responsibility styles and administrative engagement methods. Based on these insights, a comprehensive Monitoring Plan is proposed to transition the institution from a reactive to a proactive financial framework, optimizing collections while safeguarding student well-being.

Purpose: Although leadership behaviors have been widely examined in relation to teacher outcomes, limited empirical research has explored how different leadership dimensions influence teachers’ morale within highly centralized educational systems such as Thailand’s primary education sector. Existing studies have often emphasized administrative control and procedural compliance, while comparatively less attention has been given to the role of relationship-oriented leadership behaviors in sustaining teachers’ morale within centralized administrative contexts. This study therefore examines the relationship between leadership behaviors within educational administration and teachers’ morale in Thai primary schools in central Thailand. Research design, data and methodology: This study employed a quantitative research design using a survey approach. Data were collected from 417 teachers and educational personnel working in primary schools across central Thailand through anonymous self-administered questionnaires. Leadership behaviors were categorized into task-oriented and relationship-oriented dimensions, while teachers’ morale was examined through Herzberg’s Motivation-Hygiene Theory. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis were employed to examine the relationships between leadership behaviors and teachers’ morale. Results: The findings revealed that both task-oriented and relationship-oriented leadership behaviors were positively associated with teachers’ morale. Relationship-oriented leadership behaviors, particularly motivation and participation, demonstrated stronger predictive influence on teachers’ morale than task-oriented dimensions such as planning and supervision. The regression model explained a substantial proportion of variance in teachers’ morale, indicating that interpersonal and participatory leadership practices play an important role within centralized educational environments. Conclusions: The study contributes empirical evidence to educational administration research by demonstrating that leadership effectiveness within centralized educational systems may involve not only administrative coordination and policy implementation but also relationship-oriented leadership practices that support teachers’ professional well-being. The findings further suggest that balancing organizational structure with human-centered leadership may help sustain teachers’ morale within Thai primary schools.

Background: Mothers of young children with neurodevelopmental disorders may experience substantial parenting demands, but their recent positive mental well-being varies. Objective: To examine the association between parenting stress and psychological well-being among mothers of children aged 0?6 years diagnosed with neurodevelopmental disorders. Methods: This quantitative cross-sectional correlational study analyzed 85 mothers using the 18-item Parental Stress Scale (PSS-18) and the WHO-5 Well-Being Index. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and a Spearman sensitivity analysis were reported. Results: Mean PSS-18 was 67.55 (SD = 4.73), and mean WHO-5 transformed score was 64.85 (SD = 12.92). Parenting stress was negatively correlated with well-being (Pearson r = -0.675, 95% CI [-0.777, -0.540], p < .001). Spearman correlation was also negative (? = -0.634, p < .001). Conclusion: Greater reported parenting stress was associated with lower recent subjective well-being in this sample. The cross-sectional design does not establish causation. These findings underscore the relevance of attending to caregivers? psychological experiences alongside child-focused services.

Emotional intelligence (EI) has emerged as a relevant professional competency in nursing, yet its relationship with career growth remains underexplored in Saudi Arabia. This study examined the association between total emotional intelligence and perceived career growth among nurses in the Jazan Health Cluster. A cross-sectional correlational design was employed with 295 registered nurses in the Jazan Health Cluster recruited via convenience sampling. EI was measured using the Schutte Self-Report Emotional Intelligence Test, and career growth was measured using the Career Growth Scale. Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression served as the primary analytical strategies. The sample was predominantly female (78.0%), Saudi (67.1%), and BSN-qualified (74.9%), with a mean age of 36.28 years (SD = 7.94). Mean total EI was 127.98 (SD = 9.96), and mean total career growth was 53.73 (SD = 6.66). EI was positively correlated with career growth ( r = .351, 95% CI [0.246, 0.447], p < .001). Exploratory analysis showed that total EI was most strongly correlated with Career Capacity ( r = .438). Social Skills and Emotion Utilization showed broad positive patterns across the non-salary career-growth domains, whereas total EI was not associated with Salary Increase ( r = − .008, 95% CI [-0.122, 0.106]). The association between the total scores remained after covariate adjustment (B = 0.213, standardized β = 0.319, HC3 p < .001; adjusted R² = 0.220). Total emotional intelligence was positively associated with perceived career growth among nurses in Saudi Arabia after covariate adjustment but was not associated with perceived salary growth. Exploratory findings suggest that emotional competencies may be more relevant to developmental and relational aspects of career growth than to financial advancement. The findings may inform broader professional-development strategies aligned with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 healthcare workforce priorities.

The present study examined the relationship among emotional flexibility, behavioral problem and coping strategies among late adolescents and investigated the mediating role of emotional flexibility in the relationship between internalizing and externalizing behavioral problem and Adaptive and maladaptive copying strategies. A correlational research design was used with a sample of N=200 late adolescent’s age 17 to 19 years, including 97 males and 103 females, selected through convenience sampling from different educational institute. Data were collected using a demographic information sheet, Emotional flexibility scale (EFS), Behavioral problem scale (BPS) and brief COPE inventory. Data analyzed using descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, Independence sample test, pearson correlation and mediation analysis through process model 4 with 5,000 bootstrap samples. Finding indicate the males reported significantly higher behavioral problem than females. Significant difference was also found according to the institutional type, with private institute student reporting higher behavioral problem scores, whereas government institute student reported higher coping strategies score. Emotional flexibility significantly predict adaptive copying strategies was significantly negative associated with externalizing behavioral problem. However, emotional flexibility did not significantly mediate with relationship between internalizing or externalizing behavioral problem and adaptive or maladaptive copy as the booster confidence interval for the indirect effect included zero. Overall, the finding suggests the emotional flexibility associate with adolescent coping and behavioral functioning but does not significantly explain the relationship between behavioral problem and copying strategies in the present sample.

Background: Job instability within teachers in Nepal's private schools is a persistent matter, however its combined impacts on teaching performance and organizational trust remain under investigated. In this research, "permanent" denotes benefit-eligible status (teachers who get a provident fund, social security fund, insurance allowance, and government-standard paid leave after a certain qualifying period) whereas "temporary or contract-based" denotes teachers are deprived of one or more of these advantages. Objectives: This research investigates (i) the impact of job stability type on teaching performance and workplace effectiveness, (ii) the relationship between organizational job-security assist and organizational trust, and (iii) the joint predictive effect of both independent variables, along with quality of communication and collaboration tested as a possible moderator. Methods: A quantitative comparative-correlational approach was applied. Data were gathered from 219 teachers in private schools of Kathmandu Valley via a structured questionnaire utilizing a 5-point Likert scale. Item-level descriptives applied median and IQR; construct-level composites were examined applying independent-samples *t*-test, Pearson correlation, and multiple regression in SPSS. Job status was defined by availability of organizational benefits: permanent (benefit-eligible) teachers get provident fund, social security fund contributions, insurance allowance, and government-standard paid leave after a qualifying period, whereas contract-based teachers are deprived of. Results: Permanent teachers reported substantially higher teaching performance (M difference = 0.254, *p* = .036) and organizational trust (M difference = 0.269, *p* = .027) than temporary teachers. Multiple regression displayed that perceived employment stability (β = .560, *p* < .001) and institutional job-security support (β = .352, *p* < .001) combinely predicted teaching performance, R² = .793, F(2, 216) = 414.87, *p* < .001. For organizational trust, both predictors were additionally significant (β = .443 and .510, both *p* < .001), R² = .863, F(2, 216) = 677.95, *p* < .001. Moderation by communication quality was not assisted (all four interactions non-significant; *p* > .05). EFA extracted two factors justifying 73.75% of variance; Harman's test exhibited 54.64% on the first factor, just above the 50% threshold. Conclusion: Both perceived employment stability and institutional job-security assist independently and collectively predict teaching performance and organizational trust. Permanent employment is connected with higher results. Moderation by communication quality was not assisted. Novelty: This is within the first research to integrate employment stability type and institutional job-security assist in collectively predicting both teaching performance and organizational trust in Nepal's private school field, applying ordinal-appropriate item-level descriptives and composite-level parametric analysis.

Gifted and talented students need well-trained teachers who will challenge and support them in developing their abilities. However, teachers receive no formal professional learning or development focused on teaching academically advanced students, especially those with disabilities. Consequently, gifted and talented students with disabilities are often not given sufficient opportunity to thrive in the classroom. The study assessed the teaching of gifted and talented learners with disabilities. The respondents were 30 parents of Manggahan Elementary School. The researcher utilized a descriptive correlational design. Statistical treatments used were utilized frequency and percentage, weighted mean, t-test and Pearson correlation coefficient. The findings revealed that parent-respondents were mostly in the 50–54 age bracket, predominantly female, and largely composed of parents rather than grandparents or guardians. The results showed that parent-respondents generally viewed the teaching of gifted learners with disabilities positively. The highest rating was given to teachers providing opportunities for enrichment activities, showing that parents particularly noticed efforts that extend the learners’ abilities and interests. The findings also revealed that parent-respondents also assessed the teaching of talented learners with disabilities positively. The highest-rated indicator was teachers’ creativity in addressing both giftedness and disability, which suggests that parents value innovative and flexible teaching approaches. There is a significant difference in the assessment of the parent-respondents on the teaching of gifted and talented learners with disabilities when grouped according to age, sex, and role in the family. Furthermore, there is no significant relationship in the teaching of gifted and talented learners with disabilities based on the computed correlation coefficient and significance value.

Teacher wellbeing has become an increasingly important concern in sustainable education systems because teachers’ professional experiences influence instructional quality, organizational resilience, and the long-term capacity of schools to maintain supportive learning environments. Contemporary perspectives on educational sustainability emphasize that schools are sustainable not only through academic effectiveness but also through their ability to foster participation, professional recognition, supportive relationships, and psychological resources among teachers. Within this perspective, shared instructional leadership can be considered an organizational resource, while teacher job satisfaction represents an important psychological resource contributing to the human foundations of socially sustainable schools. This study examined the relationship between shared instructional leadership and teacher job satisfaction among secondary school teachers in Northern Cyprus. A quantitative correlational research design was employed with 300 teachers working in public secondary schools during the 2024–2025 academic year. Data were collected using the Shared Instructional Leadership Scale and the Teacher Job Satisfaction Scale. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation analysis, and simple linear regression analysis were conducted to examine the relationship between shared instructional leadership and teacher job satisfaction. The findings revealed a significant positive relationship between shared instructional leadership and overall teacher job satisfaction ( r = 0.580, p < 0.001). Within this perspective, shared instructional leadership is conceptualized as an organizational resource, while teacher job satisfaction represents a psychological indicator of teachers’ positive professional experiences. ( β = 0.580, p < 0.001), explaining 33.4% of the variance in teacher job satisfaction ( R 2 = 0.334). Significant positive relationships were also found between shared instructional leadership and several dimensions of job satisfaction, including management, achievement–respect–recognition, interpersonal relationships, and the nature of teaching work. The findings suggest that shared instructional leadership may contribute to socially sustainable schooling by strengthening teachers’ professional recognition, relational experiences, and psychological resources. Although social sustainability was not directly measured in this study, the findings highlight leadership practices and teacher satisfaction as important organizational and psychological conditions supporting sustainable educational environments. This study contributes to educational sustainability and leadership literature by emphasizing the human dimension of sustainable schools within the underrepresented context of Northern Cyprus.

رفاه معلمان به عنوان یکی از دغدغه‌های فزاینده در نظام‌های آموزشی پایدار مطرح شده است، زیرا تجارب حرفه‌ای معلمان بر کیفیت آموزش، تاب‌آوری سازمانی و ظرفیت بلندمدت مدارس برای حفظ محیط‌های یادگیری حمایتی تأثیرگذار است. دیدگاه‌های معاصر درباره پایداری آموزشی تأکید می‌کنند که مدارس نه تنها از طریق اثربخشی تحصیلی، بلکه از طریق توانایی خود در تقویت مشارکت، شناسایی حرفه‌ای، روابط حمایتی و منابع روان‌شناختی در میان معلمان پایدار می‌شوند. در این چارچوب، رهبری آموزشی مشارکتی به عنوان یک منبع سازمانی و رضایت شغلی معلمان به عنوان یک منبع روان‌شناختی مهم که به بنیان‌های انسانی مدارس اجتماعی پایدار کمک می‌کند، در نظر گرفته می‌شود. این پژوهش به بررسی رابطه بین رهبری آموزشی مشارکتی و رضایت شغلی معلمان در میان معلمان دبیرستان‌های قبرس شمالی پرداخت. طرح پژوهش همبستگی کمی با مشارکت ۳۰۰ معلم شاغل در مدارس متوسطه دولتی در سال تحصیلی ۲۰۲۵–۲۰۲۴ اجرا شد. داده‌ها با استفاده از مقیاس رهبری آموزشی مشارکتی و مقیاس رضایت شغلی معلمان گردآوری شد. برای بررسی رابطه بین رهبری آموزشی مشارکتی و رضایت شغلی معلمان از آمار توصیفی، تحلیل همبستگی پیرسون و تحلیل رگرسیون خطی ساده استفاده شد. یافته‌ها نشان داد که بین رهبری آموزشی مشارکتی و رضایت شغلی کلی معلمان رابطه مثبت معناداری وجود دارد (r = 0.580, p < 0.001). در این چارچوب، رهبری آموزشی مشارکتی به عنوان یک منبع سازمانی و رضایت شغلی معلمان به عنوان شاخص روان‌شناختی تجارب حرفه‌ای مثبت معلمان مفهوم‌سازی می‌شود (β = 0.580, p < 0.001) و ۳۳/۴ درصد از واریانس رضایت شغلی معلمان را تبیین می‌کند (R2 = 0.334). همچنین بین رهبری آموزشی مشارکتی و چندین بعد رضایت شغلی از جمله مدیریت، دستاورد–احترام–شناسایی، روابط بین‌فردی و ماهیت کار تدریس، روابط مثبت معناداری مشاهده شد. یافته‌ها نشان می‌دهد که رهبری آموزشی مشارکتی می‌تواند با تقویت شناسایی حرفه‌ای، تجارب ارتباطی و منابع روان‌شناختی معلمان به پایداری اجتماعی مدارس کمک کند. اگرچه پایداری اجتماعی به طور مستقیم در این پژوهش سنجیده نشد، اما یافته‌ها بر اهمیت شیوه‌های رهبری و رضایت معلمان به عنوان شرایط سازمانی و روان‌شناختی مؤثر بر محیط‌های آموزشی پایدار تأکید می‌کند. این پژوهش با تأکید بر بعد انسانی مدارس پایدار در زمینه کمتر بررسی‌شده قبرس شمالی، به ادبیات پایداری آموزشی و رهبری کمک می‌کند.

This study examined teachers’ awareness, perceptions, and challenges during the first-year implementation of the Expanded Career Progression (ECP) System in South District 5, Cebu City Division, during School Year 2025–2026. Anchored on Diffusion of Innovations Theory, Theory of Planned Behavior, and Herzberg’s Two-Factor Theory, it employed a descriptive–correlational–comparative design involving 62 public elementary and secondary school teachers selected through stratified random sampling. Data were collected using an adopted structured questionnaire and analyzed through descriptive statistics, analysis of variance, and Pearson correlation. Findings revealed high awareness of ECP objectives, qualification standards, and procedures, alongside favorable perceptions of fairness, merit recognition, motivation, and professional growth. However, respondents experienced moderate challenges related to documentary requirements, administrative procedures, workload, time constraints, and institutional support. Awareness and perceptions did not differ significantly across demographic groups, whereas challenges differed significantly according to years of service. Awareness was positively and significantly associated with perceptions, but neither awareness nor perceptions showed a significant relationship with implementation challenges under the study’s reported significance criteria. The study concluded that practical and administrative barriers remained despite teachers’ understanding and acceptance of the system. It recommended clearer guidelines, streamlined documentation, strengthened orientation, differentiated assistance, and an ECP Guidelines-Based Resource Toolkit for Teachers. The research aligns with Sustainable Development Goal 4, Quality Education, through teacher professional development, and Goal 16, Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions, through transparent career progression processes. Its contribution to sustainability lies in supporting equitable advancement, consistent policy implementation, and strengthening institutional capacity for continuing teacher professional development.

این مطالعه به بررسی آگاهی، ادراک و چالش‌های معلمان در طول نخستین سال اجرای نظام توسعه‌یافته پیشرفت شغلی (ECP) در منطقه ۵ جنوبی، ناحیه آموزشی شهر سبو، در سال تحصیلی ۲۰۲۵–۲۰۲۶ پرداخت. این پژوهش مبتنی بر نظریه انتشار نوآوری‌ها، نظریه رفتار برنامه‌ریزی‌شده و نظریه دو عاملی هرزبرگ بوده و از طرح توصیفی–همبستگی–مقایسه‌ای با مشارکت ۶۲ معلم مدارس ابتدایی و متوسطه دولتی که به روش نمونه‌گیری تصادفی طبقه‌ای انتخاب شدند، استفاده کرده است. داده‌ها با استفاده از پرسشنامه ساختاریافته اقتباس‌شده گردآوری و از طریق آمار توصیفی، تحلیل واریانس و همبستگی پیرسون تحلیل شدند. یافته‌ها نشان داد که آگاهی نسبت به اهداف، استانداردهای صلاحیت و رویه‌های ECP در سطح بالایی قرار دارد و ادراکات نسبت به انصاف، شناسایی شایستگی، انگیزش و رشد حرفه‌ای نیز مطلوب بوده است. با این حال، پاسخ‌دهندگان با چالش‌های متوسطی در زمینه الزامات مستندسازی، رویه‌های اداری، حجم کار، محدودیت‌های زمانی و حمایت نهادی مواجه بودند. آگاهی و ادراکات در میان گروه‌های جمعیت‌شناختی تفاوت معناداری نداشت، در حالی که چالش‌ها بر اساس سال‌های خدمت تفاوت معناداری نشان دادند. آگاهی با ادراکات رابطه مثبت و معناداری داشت، اما هیچ‌یک از آگاهی یا ادراکات با چالش‌های اجرای نظام، طبق معیارهای معناداری گزارش‌شده در مطالعه، رابطه معناداری نشان ندادند. مطالعه نتیجه گرفت که علی‌رغم درک و پذیرش معلمان از نظام، موانع عملی و اداری همچنان باقی مانده است. توصیه شد که دستورالعمل‌های شفاف‌تر، مستندسازی ساده‌شده، تقویت آشنایی، حمایت‌های متمایز و جعبه‌ابزار منابع مبتنی بر دستورالعمل‌های ECP برای معلمان فراهم شود. این پژوهش با هدف توسعه پایدار ۴ (آموزش با کیفیت) از طریق توسعه حرفه‌ای معلمان و هدف ۱۶ (صلح، عدالت و نهادهای قوی) از طریق فرآیندهای شفاف پیشرفت شغلی همسو است. سهم آن در پایداری، حمایت از پیشرفت عادلانه، اجرای سیاست‌های منسجم و تقویت ظرفیت نهادی برای توسعه حرفه‌ای مستمر معلمان است.

This study aimed to determine the challenges encountered by Junior High School teachers of Domalandan Center Integrated School in teaching literature during School Year 2025–2026. It examined the respondents’ profile in terms of highest educational attainment, length of service, seminars attended, and subject taught; the level of challenges in learner-related, teacher-related, resource/material, and institutional/time factors; the relationship between profile and challenges; and proposed intervention measures. Anchored on Constructivism, Social Learning Theory, Cognitive Load Theory, and Schema Theory, and guided by Republic Act 10533 and relevant DepEd policies, the study employed a descriptive-survey design. Fifty Junior High School teachers from various learning areas served as respondents. Data were gathered through a researcher-made questionnaire and analyzed using frequency count, percentage, weighted mean, and Pearson correlation. Findings showed that most respondents were Bachelor’s degree holders with 6–10 years of teaching experience and moderate seminar participation. Teachers generally Encountered difficulties in teaching literature (overall mean 4.19). Learner-related (4.35) and resource/material (4.25) challenges were Highly Encountered, while teacher-related (4.10) and institutional/time (4.05) challenges were Encountered. Significant relationships were found between length of service and challenges (r = 0.62, p = 0.048) and between seminars attended and challenges (r = 0.71, p = 0.021). The study concludes that teaching experience and professional development influence the perception of instructional difficulties. It recommends targeted training, resource enhancement, learner-centered strategies, and sustained institutional support. The study aligns with Sustainable Development Goal 4 (Quality Education) by addressing barriers to effective literature instruction. It contributes to educational and institutional sustainability through improved teacher capacity, learner engagement, and resource provision that support long-term quality teaching and learning.

این پژوهش با هدف تعیین چالش‌های پیش‌روی دبیران دوره متوسطه اول مدرسه جامع Domalandan Center در تدریس ادبیات در سال تحصیلی ۲۰۲۵–۲۰۲۶ انجام شد. در این مطالعه، مشخصات پاسخ‌دهندگان از نظر بالاترین مدرک تحصیلی، سابقه خدمت، تعداد سمینارهای گذرانده‌شده و درس تدریسی بررسی شد؛ همچنین سطح چالش‌ها در عوامل مرتبط با یادگیرنده، معلم، منابع/مواد و عوامل نهادی/زمانی، رابطه بین مشخصات و چالش‌ها و اقدامات مداخله‌ای پیشنهادی مورد ارزیابی قرار گرفت. این پژوهش مبتنی بر نظریه‌های سازنده‌گرایی، یادگیری اجتماعی، بار شناختی و طرح‌واره و با راهنمایی قانون جمهوری ۱۰۵۳۳ و سیاست‌های مرتبط DepEd، از طرح پژوهش توصیفی-پیمایشی بهره برد. پنجاه دبیر دوره متوسطه اول از حوزه‌های مختلف یادگیری به عنوان پاسخ‌دهنده شرکت کردند. داده‌ها از طریق پرسشنامه محقق‌ساخته گردآوری و با استفاده از فراوانی، درصد، میانگین وزنی و همبستگی پیرسون تحلیل شد. یافته‌ها نشان داد که اکثر پاسخ‌دهندگان دارای مدرک کارشناسی با ۶ تا ۱۰ سال سابقه تدریس و مشارکت متوسط در سمینارها بودند. به طور کلی، دبیران در تدریس ادبیات با دشواری‌هایی مواجه بودند (میانگین کلی ۴.۱۹). چالش‌های مرتبط با یادگیرنده (۴.۳۵) و منابع/مواد (۴.۲۵) به میزان زیادی تجربه شد، در حالی که چالش‌های مرتبط با معلم (۴.۱۰) و نهادی/زمانی (۴.۰۵) تجربه شد. بین سابقه خدمت و چالش‌ها (r = 0.62, p = 0.048) و بین تعداد سمینارهای گذرانده‌شده و چالش‌ها (r = 0.71, p = 0.021) رابطه معناداری مشاهده شد. پژوهش نتیجه می‌گیرد که تجربه تدریس و توسعه حرفه‌ای بر ادراک دشواری‌های آموزشی تأثیرگذار است. پیشنهاد می‌شود آموزش‌های هدفمند، ارتقای منابع، راهبردهای یادگیرنده‌محور و حمایت نهادی پایدار تقویت شود. این مطالعه با هدف توسعه پایدار ۴ (آموزش با کیفیت) همسو بوده و با رفع موانع تدریس مؤثر ادبیات، به پایداری آموزشی و نهادی از طریق ارتقای توانمندی دبیران، افزایش مشارکت یادگیرندگان و تأمین منابع برای حمایت از آموزش و یادگیری با کیفیت در بلندمدت کمک می‌کند.

This study examined how governance modalities shape institutional performance at The Polytechnic of Ibadan, Nigeria, amid governance deficiency and stakeholder disaffection in post-colonial technical education. Grounded in Fiedler's Contingency Theory, it addressed the empirical gap on decision-making effectiveness within this specific institutional context. A descriptive survey design was adopted as an institutional case study. The population comprised 305 administrative and academic staff stratified into top-level administrators (n = 25), middle-level managers (n = 68), and operational-level staff (n = 212). A sample of 173 respondents was selected via stratified random sampling using Yamane's formula. Data were collected through a researcher-designed questionnaire measuring participatory, consultative, directive, and digital-enabled decision-making alongside administrative effectiveness dimensions. The instrument demonstrated strong reliability (α = 0.87 and 0.84). Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, multiple regression, and one-way ANOVA were applied using SPSS v.26 at p ≤ 0.05. Findings revealed strong positive associations between participatory and consultative modalities (r = 0.72, p < 0.01), inverse relationships for directive structures (r = −0.34 to −0.28, p < 0.01–0.05), and moderate technological alignment (r = 0.58–0.61, p < 0.01). Regression confirmed participatory (β = 0.298), consultative (β = 0.251), and digital (β = 0.187) mechanisms as positive predictors, with directive governance (β = −0.142) as a negative predictor, explaining 55% of the variance (R² = 0.55, F = 24.87, p < 0.001). It recommends digital literacy training for administrators, formal feedback loops, evidence-based benchmarking, integrated change management with technology deployment, and participatory governance reforms to redress hierarchical asymmetries.

این پژوهش به بررسی چگونگی تأثیر شیوه‌های حکمرانی بر عملکرد نهادی در پلی‌تکنیک ایبادان، نیجریه، در شرایط کمبود حکمرانی و نارضایتی ذینفعان در آموزش فنی پس از استعمار می‌پردازد. این مطالعه مبتنی بر نظریه اقتضایی فیدلر بوده و به خلأ تجربی در زمینه اثربخشی تصمیم‌گیری در این بستر نهادی خاص می‌پردازد. طرح پژوهش توصیفی-پیمایشی به عنوان مطالعه موردی نهادی اتخاذ شد. جامعه آماری شامل ۳۰۵ نفر از کارکنان اداری و آموزشی بود که به سه طبقه مدیران عالی‌رتبه (n = 25)، مدیران میان‌رده (n = 68) و کارکنان عملیاتی (n = 212) تقسیم شدند. نمونه‌ای متشکل از ۱۷۳ نفر با استفاده از نمونه‌گیری تصادفی طبقه‌ای و فرمول یامانه انتخاب شد. داده‌ها از طریق پرسشنامه محقق‌ساخته که شیوه‌های تصمیم‌گیری مشارکتی، مشورتی، دستوری و مبتنی بر فناوری دیجیتال را در کنار ابعاد اثربخشی اداری اندازه‌گیری می‌کرد، گردآوری شد. ابزار پژوهش از پایایی بالایی برخوردار بود (α = 0.87 و 0.84). برای تحلیل داده‌ها از آمار توصیفی، همبستگی پیرسون، رگرسیون چندگانه و تحلیل واریانس یک‌طرفه با استفاده از نرم‌افزار SPSS نسخه ۲۶ در سطح معناداری p ≤ 0.05 استفاده شد. یافته‌ها نشان داد که بین شیوه‌های مشارکتی و مشورتی ارتباط مثبت قوی وجود دارد (r = 0.72, p < 0.01)، ساختارهای دستوری رابطه معکوس دارند (r = −0.34 تا −0.28, p < 0.01–0.05) و همسویی فناورانه در حد متوسط است (r = 0.58–0.61, p < 0.01). نتایج رگرسیون نشان داد که سازوکارهای مشارکتی (β = 0.298)، مشورتی (β = 0.251) و دیجیتال (β = 0.187) پیش‌بین‌های مثبت و حکمرانی دستوری (β = −0.142) پیش‌بین منفی عملکرد نهادی هستند و ۵۵٪ از واریانس را تبیین می‌کنند (R² = 0.55, F = 24.87, p < 0.001). بر اساس نتایج، آموزش سواد دیجیتال برای مدیران، ایجاد حلقه‌های بازخورد رسمی، الگوبرداری مبتنی بر شواهد، مدیریت تغییر یکپارچه با استقرار فناوری و اصلاحات حکمرانی مشارکتی برای رفع عدم تقارن سلسله‌مراتبی توصیه می‌شود.

This descriptive and cross-sectional study aimed to determine the job satisfaction, life satisfaction, and burnout levels of radiology technicians working in different hospitals in Türkiye, to examine the relationships between these variables, and to evaluate the sociodemographic, occupational, and psychosocial factors associated with burnout. The research was conducted online using Google Forms between February 10 and May 26, 2025. A total of 619 radiology technicians participated in the study. Data were collected using a Demographic Information Form, the Job Satisfaction Scale, the Life Satisfaction Scale, and the Burnout Scale Short Form. Descriptive statistics, the independent-samples t-test, one-way analysis of variance, Tukey HSD post hoc test, Pearson correlation, and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the data. Effect sizes were calculated using Cohen’s d for two-group comparisons and eta squared (η²) for comparisons involving more than two groups. Because burnout was the primary dependent variable of the study, multivariate analysis was performed for burnoutonly; job satisfaction and life satisfaction were included in the multivariate model as explanatory variables. The participants’ mean scores for job satisfaction, life satisfaction, and burnout were 3.18 ± 0.71, 18.89 ± 6.05, and 3.66 ± 1.12, respectively. Significant differences were found in some scale scores by gender, education level, income level, work arrangement, and work unit (p < 0.05). A moderate positive correlation was found between job satisfaction and life satisfaction (r = 0.529, p < 0.001), whereas moderate negative correlations were found between burnout and job satisfaction (r = -0.308, p < 0.001) and between burnout and life satisfaction (r = -0.473, p < 0.001). In the regression analysis, the model explained 26% of the variance in burnout (R² = 0.260, p < 0.001). Life satisfaction and female gender were significantly associated with burnout (p < 0.001), while other variables were not significant. These findings suggest that burnout among radiology technicians should be considered in relation to sociodemographic, occupational, and psychosocial factors, although life satisfaction remained the only psychosocial variable independently associated with burnout in the multivariable analysis.

این مطالعه توصیفی و مقطعی با هدف تعیین میزان رضایت شغلی، رضایت از زندگی و سطوح فرسودگی شغلی تکنسین‌های رادیولوژی شاغل در بیمارستان‌های مختلف ترکیه، بررسی روابط بین این متغیرها و ارزیابی عوامل جمعیت‌شناختی، شغلی و روانی‌اجتماعی مرتبط با فرسودگی شغلی انجام شد. پژوهش به صورت آنلاین و با استفاده از Google Forms در بازه زمانی ۱۰ فوریه تا ۲۶ مه ۲۰۲۵ انجام گرفت. در مجموع ۶۱۹ تکنسین رادیولوژی در این مطالعه شرکت کردند. داده‌ها با استفاده از فرم اطلاعات جمعیت‌شناختی، مقیاس رضایت شغلی، مقیاس رضایت از زندگی و فرم کوتاه مقیاس فرسودگی شغلی جمع‌آوری شد. برای تحلیل داده‌ها از آمار توصیفی، آزمون t مستقل، تحلیل واریانس یک‌طرفه، آزمون پس از hoc Tukey HSD، همبستگی پیرسون و رگرسیون خطی چندگانه استفاده گردید. اندازه اثر برای مقایسه‌های دو گروهی با استفاده از d کوهن و برای مقایسه‌های بیش از دو گروه با مجذور اتا (η²) محاسبه شد. از آنجا که فرسودگی شغلی متغیر وابسته اصلی پژوهش بود، تحلیل چندمتغیره فقط برای فرسودگی شغلی انجام شد؛ رضایت شغلی و رضایت از زندگی به عنوان متغیرهای تبیینی در مدل چندمتغیره وارد شدند. میانگین نمرات شرکت‌کنندگان برای رضایت شغلی، رضایت از زندگی و فرسودگی شغلی به ترتیب ۳.۱۸ ± ۰.۷۱، ۱۸.۸۹ ± ۶.۰۵ و ۳.۶۶ ± ۱.۱۲ بود. تفاوت معناداری در برخی نمرات مقیاس بر اساس جنسیت، سطح تحصیلات، سطح درآمد، نوع شیفت کاری و واحد کاری مشاهده شد (p < 0.05). همبستگی مثبت متوسطی بین رضایت شغلی و رضایت از زندگی (r = 0.529, p < 0.001) و همبستگی منفی متوسطی بین فرسودگی شغلی و رضایت شغلی (r = -0.308, p < 0.001) و بین فرسودگی شغلی و رضایت از زندگی (r = -0.473, p < 0.001) یافت شد. در تحلیل رگرسیون، مدل ۲۶٪ از واریانس فرسودگی شغلی را تبیین کرد (R² = 0.260, p < 0.001). رضایت از زندگی و جنسیت زن به طور معناداری با فرسودگی شغلی مرتبط بودند (p < 0.001)، در حالی که سایر متغیرها معنادار نبودند. این یافته‌ها نشان می‌دهد که فرسودگی شغلی در میان تکنسین‌های رادیولوژی باید در ارتباط با عوامل جمعیت‌شناختی، شغلی و روانی‌اجتماعی مورد توجه قرار گیرد، هرچند رضایت از زندگی تنها متغیر روانی‌اجتماعی بود که در تحلیل چندمتغیره به طور مستقل با فرسودگی شغلی ارتباط داشت.

This study aims to analyze the relationships of visionary leadership, emotional intelligence, and self-efficacy with teachers’ work discipline in private Islamic elementary schools in Pagedangan District. The study employed a quantitative approach using a survey method and an associative research design. The sample consisted of 100 respondents selected through stratified random sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed through descriptive and inferential statistics with the assistance of SPSS software. Hypothesis testing employed Pearson correlation to examine the relationship between each independent variable and work discipline, as well as multiple correlation to assess their simultaneous relationship. The results showed that visionary leadership had a very weak, positive, and statistically insignificant relationship with work discipline, with a correlation coefficient of 0.053 and a significance value of 0.601. Emotional intelligence demonstrated a positive and significant relationship with work discipline, with a correlation coefficient of 0.242 and a significance value of 0.015. Self-efficacy also had a positive and significant relationship with work discipline, with a correlation coefficient of 0.348 and a significance value of 0.000. Simultaneously, visionary leadership, emotional intelligence, and self-efficacy had a positive and significant relationship with work discipline, with a multiple correlation coefficient of 0.381, a significance value of 0.002, and a coefficient of determination of 0.145. These findings indicate that the three variables were jointly associated with 14.5% of the variation in teachers’ work discipline, while the remaining 85.5% was associated with other factors outside the research model. In conclusion, emotional intelligence and self-efficacy had positive and significant partial relationships with teachers’ work discipline, whereas visionary leadership did not demonstrate a statistically significant partial relationship. These findings are expected to inform efforts to improve teachers’ work discipline through the development of emotional intelligence, self-efficacy, and effective educational management

هدف این پژوهش تحلیل روابط رهبری آینده‌نگر، هوش هیجانی و خودکارآمدی با انضباط کاری معلمان در مدارس ابتدایی اسلامی غیردولتی منطقه پاگدانگان است. این پژوهش با رویکرد کمی و با استفاده از روش پیمایشی و طرح پژوهش همبستگی انجام شده است. نمونه شامل ۱۰۰ نفر از پاسخ‌دهندگان بود که با روش نمونه‌گیری تصادفی طبقه‌ای انتخاب شدند. داده‌ها از طریق پرسشنامه جمع‌آوری و با استفاده از آمار توصیفی و استنباطی و با کمک نرم‌افزار SPSS تحلیل شدند. برای آزمون فرضیه‌ها از همبستگی پیرسون جهت بررسی رابطه هر متغیر مستقل با انضباط کاری و از همبستگی چندگانه برای ارزیابی رابطه همزمان آن‌ها استفاده شد. نتایج نشان داد که رهبری آینده‌نگر با ضریب همبستگی ۰.۰۵۳ و مقدار معناداری ۰.۶۰۱، رابطه‌ای بسیار ضعیف، مثبت و از نظر آماری غیرمعنادار با انضباط کاری دارد. هوش هیجانی با ضریب همبستگی ۰.۲۴۲ و مقدار معناداری ۰.۰۱۵، رابطه‌ای مثبت و معنادار با انضباط کاری نشان داد. خودکارآمدی نیز با ضریب همبستگی ۰.۳۴۸ و مقدار معناداری ۰.۰۰۰، رابطه‌ای مثبت و معنادار با انضباط کاری داشت. به طور همزمان، رهبری آینده‌نگر، هوش هیجانی و خودکارآمدی با ضریب همبستگی چندگانه ۰.۳۸۱، مقدار معناداری ۰.۰۰۲ و ضریب تعیین ۰.۱۴۵، رابطه‌ای مثبت و معنادار با انضباط کاری داشتند. این یافته‌ها نشان می‌دهد که سه متغیر مذکور به طور مشترک با ۱۴.۵٪ از تغییرات انضباط کاری معلمان مرتبط بودند و ۸۵.۵٪ باقی‌مانده به عوامل دیگری خارج از مدل پژوهش مربوط می‌شود. در نتیجه، هوش هیجانی و خودکارآمدی دارای روابط جزئی مثبت و معنادار با انضباط کاری معلمان بودند، در حالی که رهبری آینده‌نگر رابطه جزئی معناداری از نظر آماری نشان نداد. انتظار می‌رود این یافته‌ها در جهت بهبود انضباط کاری معلمان از طریق توسعه هوش هیجانی، خودکارآمدی و مدیریت آموزشی مؤثر مورد استفاده قرار گیرد.

OBJECTIVE: Multi-view electroencephalography (EEG) emotion recognition must decide how the spectral graph sets of different connectivity views correspond and how their graph propagation operators interact. We present CSTO-Net, a cross-view spectral-transport and topology-operator network for EEG-based emotion recognition. Approach: CSTO-Net integrates three window-wise views: dynamic differential entropy (DDE) as node attributes, amplitude-envelope Pearson correlation coefficient (PCC) graphs, and phase-locking value (PLV) graphs. Cross-View Spectral Transport Routing (CSTR) formulates PCC-PLV spectral correspondence as an entropy-regularized optimal-transport problem with explicit marginal constraints, deliberately separating correspondence estimation from band-importance estimation. Directional Cross-Topology Modulation (DCTM) performs ordered composition of the two routed propagation operators on shared node features and encodes order-dependent propagation discrepancy via a provably skew-symmetric graph-operator commutator with signed decomposition. Main results: On the Database for Emotion Analysis using Physiological Signals (DEAP) dataset, CSTO-Net achieves 93.95 ± 2.50% valence and 94.97 ± 2.72% arousal accuracy under the subject-dependent setting, and 93.73% and 94.54% under participant-wise five-fold subject-independent cross-validation across 32 participants. On the SJTU Emotion EEG Dataset (SEED), it achieves 93.12% under the standard subject-dependent split, 91.36% under 15-fold leave-one-subject-out evaluation across 15 participants, and 98.05 ± 2.32% under subject-dependent five-fold cross-validation. Ablation studies confirm that both CSTR and DCTM contribute substantially to recognition accuracy. Significance: These results demonstrate that explicit cross-view spectral correspondence and topology-operator-level interaction provide complementary benefits for EEG emotion recognition, offering an interpretable route for modeling order-sensitive interactions between functional connectivity views.

هدف: شناسایی هیجان مبتنی بر الکتروانسفالوگرافی چندنما (EEG) باید تعیین کند که مجموعه‌های گراف طیفی نماهای مختلف ارتباطی چگونه با یکدیگر متناظر می‌شوند و عملگرهای انتشار گراف آن‌ها چگونه با هم تعامل دارند. ما CSTO-Net را ارائه می‌دهیم؛ شبکه‌ای برای انتقال طیفی بین‌نما و عملگر توپولوژی جهت شناسایی هیجان مبتنی بر EEG. روش: CSTO-Net سه نمای مبتنی بر پنجره را ادغام می‌کند: آنتروپی تفاضلی پویا (DDE) به عنوان ویژگی‌های گره، گراف‌های ضریب همبستگی پیرسون پوش‌آمپلیتیود (PCC) و گراف‌های مقدار قفل‌شدگی فاز (PLV). مسیریابی انتقال طیفی بین‌نما (CSTR) متناظر بودن طیفی PCC-PLV را به صورت یک مسئله انتقال بهینه با قید حاشیه‌ای صریح و منظم‌سازی آنتروپی مدل‌سازی می‌کند و به طور هدفمند برآورد متناظری را از برآورد اهمیت باند جدا می‌سازد. مدولاسیون متقاطع توپولوژی جهت‌دار (DCTM) ترکیب مرتب دو عملگر انتشار مسیریابی‌شده را بر ویژگی‌های گره مشترک انجام می‌دهد و اختلاف انتشار وابسته به ترتیب را از طریق یک جابجایی عملگر گراف با تجزیه علامت‌دار و اثباتاً پادمتقارن رمزگذاری می‌کند. نتایج اصلی: بر روی پایگاه داده تحلیل هیجان با استفاده از سیگنال‌های فیزیولوژیک (DEAP)، CSTO-Net به دقت 93.95 ± 2.50٪ برای والانس و 94.97 ± 2.72٪ برای برانگیختگی در شرایط وابسته به آزمودنی دست می‌یابد و در اعتبارسنجی متقاطع پنج‌تایی مستقل از آزمودنی به ترتیب 93.73٪ و 94.54٪ در میان 32 آزمودنی کسب می‌کند. بر روی پایگاه داده EEG هیجان دانشگاه SJTU (SEED)، به دقت 93.12٪ در تقسیم‌بندی استاندارد وابسته به آزمودنی، 91.36٪ در ارزیابی leave-one-subject-out پانزده‌تایی در میان 15 آزمودنی و 98.05 ± 2.32٪ در اعتبارسنجی متقاطع پنج‌تایی وابسته به آزمودنی دست می‌یابد. مطالعات حذف مؤلفه نشان می‌دهد که هر دو مؤلفه CSTR و DCTM سهم قابل توجهی در دقت شناسایی دارند. اهمیت: این نتایج نشان می‌دهد که متناظر‌سازی طیفی بین‌نما و تعامل در سطح عملگر توپولوژی، مزایای مکملی برای شناسایی هیجان مبتنی بر EEG فراهم می‌آورد و مسیر قابل تفسیر برای مدل‌سازی تعاملات حساس به ترتیب بین نماهای ارتباط عملکردی ارائه می‌دهد.

This study examined the transformational leadership styles of secondary school administrators and their relationship with teachers’ self-efficacy in Balamban District I during School Year 2025–2026 as a basis for developing a Leadership Enhancement Program. Employing a descriptive-correlational research design, the study involved 65 secondary school teachers selected as respondents. Data were collected using standardized instruments, namely the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ Form 5X) and the Teachers’ Sense of Efficacy Scale (TSES Long Form). Statistical analyses included frequency, percentage, weighted mean, standard deviation, and Pearson correlation. Findings revealed that most respondents were female, married, experienced teachers handling English and Mathematics, and had pursued graduate education. School administrators demonstrated high levels of transformational leadership, particularly in idealized influence, inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, contingent reward, effectiveness, satisfaction, and extra effort. Conversely, laissez-faire leadership and passive management practices received low ratings. Teachers exhibited high self-efficacy in student engagement, instructional strategies, and classroom management. Correlation analysis revealed a low but statistically significant positive relationship between transformational leadership and teachers’ self-efficacy (ρ = 0.293, p = 0.018). Specifically, idealized influence, intellectual stimulation, and contingent reward demonstrated significant associations with teachers’ self-efficacy. The findings suggest that effective transformational leadership practices are associated with greater teacher confidence in fulfilling instructional responsibilities and managing classroom environments. Consequently, a Leadership Enhancement Program was proposed to strengthen administrators’ leadership competencies, promote supportive educational environments, and further enhance teachers’ professional effectiveness and self-efficacy across secondary schools within Balamban District I.

این پژوهش به بررسی سبک‌های رهبری تحول‌آفرین مدیران مدارس متوسطه و رابطه آن با خودکارآمدی معلمان در ناحیه اول بالامبان طی سال تحصیلی ۲۰۲۵–۲۰۲۶ به‌عنوان مبنایی برای تدوین برنامه ارتقای رهبری پرداخت. این مطالعه با بهره‌گیری از طرح پژوهش توصیفی-همبستگی و با مشارکت ۶۵ معلم مدارس متوسطه که به‌عنوان پاسخ‌دهنده انتخاب شدند، انجام شد. داده‌ها با استفاده از ابزارهای استاندارد، شامل پرسشنامه چندعاملی رهبری (MLQ Form 5X) و مقیاس احساس خودکارآمدی معلمان (TSES Long Form) گردآوری شد. تحلیل‌های آماری شامل فراوانی، درصد، میانگین وزنی، انحراف معیار و همبستگی پیرسون بود. یافته‌ها نشان داد که اکثر پاسخ‌دهندگان زن، متأهل، معلمان با تجربه در تدریس زبان انگلیسی و ریاضیات و دارای تحصیلات تکمیلی بودند. مدیران مدارس سطوح بالایی از رهبری تحول‌آفرین، به‌ویژه در نفوذ آرمانی، انگیزش الهام‌بخش، تحریک فکری، پاداش مشروط، اثربخشی، رضایت و تلاش مضاعف از خود نشان دادند. در مقابل، رهبری عدم مداخله و شیوه‌های مدیریت منفعل امتیاز پایینی کسب کردند. معلمان در ابعاد مشارکت دانش‌آموزان، راهبردهای آموزشی و مدیریت کلاس، خودکارآمدی بالایی از خود نشان دادند. تحلیل همبستگی نشان داد که بین رهبری تحول‌آفرین و خودکارآمدی معلمان رابطه مثبت اما ضعیف و معناداری وجود دارد (ρ = 0.293, p = 0.018). به طور خاص، نفوذ آرمانی، تحریک فکری و پاداش مشروط با خودکارآمدی معلمان ارتباط معناداری داشتند. یافته‌ها حاکی از آن است که شیوه‌های مؤثر رهبری تحول‌آفرین با افزایش اعتماد به نفس معلمان در انجام مسئولیت‌های آموزشی و مدیریت محیط کلاس مرتبط است. بر این اساس، برنامه ارتقای رهبری به منظور تقویت شایستگی‌های رهبری مدیران، ارتقای محیط‌های آموزشی حمایتی و افزایش اثربخشی حرفه‌ای و خودکارآمدی معلمان در مدارس متوسطه ناحیه اول بالامبان پیشنهاد شد.

Introduction This study examined the association between future anxiety and psychological wellbeing, the indirect association through mental toughness, and the joint moderating role of age and family economic status in the relationship between future anxiety and mental toughness among sport management students. Methods A cross-sectional correlational design was used with 367 students enrolled in sport management departments at four public universities in Türkiye. Data were collected using the Future Anxiety Scale for University Students, the Mental Toughness Inventory, and the Psychological Wellbeing Scale. Pearson correlation, observed-variable path analysis, and three-way interaction analysis were conducted. Results Future anxiety was negatively associated with psychological wellbeing ( r = −0.40, p < 0.001) and mental toughness ( r = −0.35, p < 0.001), whereas mental toughness was positively associated with psychological wellbeing ( r = 0.75, p < 0.001). The indirect association between future anxiety and psychological wellbeing through mental toughness was statistically significant ( β = −0.240, 95% BCa bootstrap CI [−0.336, −0.160]), while the direct association remained significant ( β = −0.165, p < 0.001), indicating that mental toughness accounted for part of the association. The three-way interaction among future anxiety, age, and family economic status was statistically significant in predicting mental toughness ( B = 0.550, p = 0.006). Future anxiety was negatively associated with mental toughness across all age and family economic status groups. The largest observed negative slope was found among students aged 22 years or older whose family income was lower than their family expenses ( B = −0.620, p < 0.001), whereas the smallest observed negative slope was found among students aged 18–21 years in the same economic group ( B = −0.180, p = 0.041). Discussion These findings identify mental toughness as an important psychological resource associated with psychological wellbeing and indicate that age and family economic status jointly condition the strength of the relationship between future anxiety and mental toughness. Given the cross-sectional design, the findings should be interpreted as statistical associations rather than evidence of causal relationships.

مقدمه: این مطالعه به بررسی ارتباط بین اضطراب آینده و بهزیستی روان‌شناختی، ارتباط غیرمستقیم از طریق سرسختی روانی، و نقش تعدیل‌کننده مشترک سن و وضعیت اقتصادی خانواده در رابطه بین اضطراب آینده و سرسختی روانی در میان دانشجویان مدیریت ورزشی پرداخت. روش‌ها: طرح پژوهش مقطعی همبستگی با مشارکت ۳۶۷ دانشجو از گروه‌های مدیریت ورزشی چهار دانشگاه دولتی در ترکیه اجرا شد. داده‌ها با استفاده از مقیاس اضطراب آینده برای دانشجویان دانشگاه، فهرست سرسختی روانی و مقیاس بهزیستی روان‌شناختی گردآوری شد. همبستگی پیرسون، تحلیل مسیر متغیر مشاهده‌شده و تحلیل تعامل سه‌گانه انجام گرفت. یافته‌ها: اضطراب آینده با بهزیستی روان‌شناختی (r = −0.40, p < 0.001) و سرسختی روانی (r = −0.35, p < 0.001) رابطه منفی داشت، در حالی که سرسختی روانی با بهزیستی روان‌شناختی رابطه مثبت نشان داد (r = 0.75, p < 0.001). ارتباط غیرمستقیم بین اضطراب آینده و بهزیستی روان‌شناختی از طریق سرسختی روانی از لحاظ آماری معنادار بود (β = −0.240, 95% BCa bootstrap CI [−0.336, −0.160])، در حالی که ارتباط مستقیم نیز معنادار باقی ماند (β = −0.165, p < 0.001)، که نشان می‌دهد سرسختی روانی بخشی از این ارتباط را تبیین می‌کند. تعامل سه‌گانه بین اضطراب آینده، سن و وضعیت اقتصادی خانواده در پیش‌بینی سرسختی روانی از لحاظ آماری معنادار بود (B = 0.550, p = 0.006). اضطراب آینده در تمامی گروه‌های سنی و وضعیت اقتصادی خانواده با سرسختی روانی رابطه منفی داشت. بیشترین شیب منفی مشاهده‌شده در میان دانشجویان ۲۲ سال و بالاتر با درآمد خانوادگی کمتر از هزینه‌های خانواده بود (B = −0.620, p < 0.001)، در حالی که کمترین شیب منفی در میان دانشجویان ۱۸ تا ۲۱ سال در همان گروه اقتصادی مشاهده شد (B = −0.180, p = 0.041). بحث: این یافته‌ها سرسختی روانی را به عنوان یک منبع روان‌شناختی مهم مرتبط با بهزیستی روان‌شناختی معرفی می‌کند و نشان می‌دهد که سن و وضعیت اقتصادی خانواده به طور مشترک شدت رابطه بین اضطراب آینده و سرسختی روانی را مشروط می‌کنند. با توجه به طرح مقطعی پژوهش، یافته‌ها باید به عنوان ارتباطات آماری تفسیر شوند و نه شواهدی برای روابط علّی.

Social anxiety is a salient psychological concern among college students and is closely related to interpersonal adjustment and emotional well-being. This cross-sectional study examined the association between physical exercise and social anxiety among Chinese college students, focusing on the statistical indirect roles of body appreciation and regulatory emotional self-efficacy. A total of 1,869 students mainly from Henan Province, China, completed self-report measures of physical exercise, body appreciation, regulatory emotional self-efficacy, and social anxiety. Pearson correlation analysis and PROCESS Model 6 with 5,000 bootstrap samples were used to examine direct and indirect associations. Physical exercise was negatively associated with social anxiety and positively associated with body appreciation and regulatory emotional self-efficacy. Body appreciation and regulatory emotional self-efficacy were separately involved in significant indirect associations between physical exercise and social anxiety. A sequential statistical indirect association involving body appreciation and regulatory emotional self-efficacy was also observed. These findings suggest that positive body image and emotion-regulation beliefs are relevant psychological resources in the association between physical exercise and social anxiety. Given the cross-sectional design, the findings should be interpreted as statistical associations rather than evidence of temporal or causal ordering.

اضطراب اجتماعی یکی از نگرانی‌های برجسته روان‌شناختی در میان دانشجویان دانشگاه است و ارتباط نزدیکی با سازگاری بین‌فردی و بهزیستی هیجانی دارد. این مطالعه مقطعی به بررسی ارتباط بین ورزش بدنی و اضطراب اجتماعی در میان دانشجویان دانشگاه‌های چین پرداخت و نقش‌های غیرمستقیم آماری قدردانی از بدن و خودکارآمدی تنظیمی هیجانی را مورد توجه قرار داد. در مجموع ۱۸۶۹ دانشجو عمدتاً از استان هنان چین، مقیاس‌های خودگزارشی ورزش بدنی، قدردانی از بدن، خودکارآمدی تنظیمی هیجانی و اضطراب اجتماعی را تکمیل کردند. برای بررسی ارتباطات مستقیم و غیرمستقیم، از تحلیل همبستگی پیرسون و مدل PROCESS شماره ۶ با ۵۰۰۰ نمونه بوت‌استرپ استفاده شد. ورزش بدنی با اضطراب اجتماعی رابطه منفی و با قدردانی از بدن و خودکارآمدی تنظیمی هیجانی رابطه مثبت داشت. قدردانی از بدن و خودکارآمدی تنظیمی هیجانی به طور جداگانه در ارتباطات غیرمستقیم معنادار بین ورزش بدنی و اضطراب اجتماعی نقش داشتند. همچنین یک ارتباط غیرمستقیم آماری متوالی شامل قدردانی از بدن و خودکارآمدی تنظیمی هیجانی مشاهده شد. این یافته‌ها نشان می‌دهد که تصویر بدنی مثبت و باورهای مربوط به تنظیم هیجان منابع روان‌شناختی مرتبط در ارتباط بین ورزش بدنی و اضطراب اجتماعی هستند. با توجه به طرح مقطعی پژوهش، یافته‌ها باید به عنوان ارتباطات آماری تفسیر شوند و نه به عنوان شواهدی از ترتیب زمانی یا علی.

This study examines how Islamic madrasah curricula are often administratively replicated without embedding Islamic values or local wisdom. Using an explanatory sequential mixed-methods design, we surveyed 64 teachers and curriculum coordinators, then conducted 12 in-depth interviews. Quantitative analyses (descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, simple regression) revealed that 78% of documents received only superficial identity changes and only 27% of teachers participated actively. Teacher engagement correlated strongly with document originality (r = 0.62; p < 0.01), while supervisory effectiveness explained 28% of quality variation. Qualitative themes highlight teachers' technical unpreparedness, viewing curriculum as an administrative burden, and a need for on-site case-based coaching. We propose a participatory mentoring model combining on-site training and document review to boost teachers' technical capacity and foster authentic, reflective, context-relevant curricula. Recommendations focus on sustained supervisory policy and co-design of curricula by teachers and supervisors.

این پژوهش بررسی می‌کند که چگونه برنامه‌های درسی مدارس اسلامی (مدارس دینی) اغلب به‌صورت اداری تکرار می‌شوند، بدون آنکه ارزش‌های اسلامی یا خرد بومی در آن‌ها نهادینه شود. با استفاده از طرح پژوهش آمیختهٔ تبیینی متوالی، ابتدا از ۶۴ معلم و هماهنگ‌کنندهٔ برنامهٔ درسی نظرسنجی شد و سپس ۱۲ مصاحبهٔ عمیق انجام گرفت. تحلیل‌های کمی (آمار توصیفی، همبستگی پیرسون، رگرسیون ساده) نشان داد که ۷۸٪ اسناد تنها تغییرات ظاهری در هویت دریافت کرده‌اند و تنها ۲۷٪ معلمان به‌طور فعال مشارکت داشته‌اند. مشارکت معلمان با اصالت اسناد همبستگی قوی داشت (r = 0.62؛ p < 0.01)، در حالی که اثربخشی نظارت ۲۸٪ از تغییرات کیفیت را تبیین کرد. مضامین کیفی به ناآمادگی فنی معلمان، تلقی برنامهٔ درسی به‌عنوان یک بار اداری و نیاز به آموزش موردی در محل اشاره دارند. ما یک الگوی راهنمایی مشارکتی را پیشنهاد می‌کنیم که آموزش حضوری و بازبینی اسناد را ترکیب می‌کند تا ظرفیت فنی معلمان افزایش یافته و برنامه‌های درسی اصیل، تأملی و متناسب با زمینه ایجاد شود. توصیه‌ها بر سیاست نظارتی پایدار و طراحی مشترک برنامهٔ درسی توسط معلمان و ناظران تأکید دارد.

This quantitative correlational study investigates the relationship between online gaming, gender, and English vocabulary mastery among 65 tenth-grade students at a private high school in North Minahasa, Indonesia. Data were collected using a self-report online gaming questionnaire and a 50-item researcher-developed multiple-choice vocabulary test reviewed by three experiences EFL teacher for content validity. The students reported a high mean level of online gaming (M = 3.94) while moderate mean level of vocabulary mastery (M = 65.69). Pearson correlation revealed a weak, positive but non-significant relationship between gaming frequency and vocabulary test scores (r = .141, p = .262). An independent samples t-test indicated no statistically significant difference in vocabulary performance between male (M = 64.22) and female students (M = 67.09), and t(62,75) = -0.53, p = .598. The findings indicate that the online gaming does not necessarily correspond to higher vocabulary mastery. However, the findings should be interpreted cautiously because the study used a small co sample from one school and did not examine game genre or the amount of English used during gameplay. Further research should examine these factors and use more direct measures of English exposure during gaming.

این پژوهش همبستگی کمی به بررسی رابطه بین بازی‌های آنلاین، جنسیت و تسلط بر واژگان زبان انگلیسی در میان ۶۵ دانش‌آموز پایه دهم یک دبیرستان غیرانتفاعی در شمال میناهاسا، اندونزی می‌پردازد. داده‌ها با استفاده از پرسشنامه خودگزارش‌دهی بازی‌های آنلاین و یک آزمون چندگزینه‌ای ۵۰ سؤالی واژگان که توسط سه معلم با تجربه EFL از نظر روایی محتوایی بررسی شد، جمع‌آوری گردید. دانش‌آموزان میانگین بالایی از سطح بازی آنلاین را گزارش کردند (M = 3.94) در حالی که میانگین سطح تسلط بر واژگان در حد متوسط بود (M = 65.69). همبستگی پیرسون رابطه‌ای ضعیف، مثبت اما غیرمعنادار بین فراوانی بازی و نمرات آزمون واژگان نشان داد (r = .141, p = .262). آزمون t مستقل تفاوت معناداری از نظر آماری در عملکرد واژگان بین دانش‌آموزان پسر (M = 64.22) و دختر (M = 67.09) نشان نداد، t(62,75) = -0.53, p = .598. یافته‌ها نشان می‌دهند که بازی آنلاین لزوماً با تسلط بیشتر بر واژگان همراه نیست. با این حال، یافته‌ها باید با احتیاط تفسیر شوند زیرا این پژوهش از نمونه‌ای کوچک و تنها از یک مدرسه استفاده کرده و به بررسی نوع بازی یا میزان استفاده از زبان انگلیسی در حین بازی نپرداخته است. پژوهش‌های بیشتری باید این عوامل را بررسی کرده و از سنجه‌های مستقیم‌تر برای سنجش میزان مواجهه با زبان انگلیسی در حین بازی استفاده کنند.

This study assessed the instructional skills of Master Teachers, organizational commitment, and school performance in public junior high schools in the Division of Bacoor City and used the findings as the basis for a capability-building program. A descriptive-comparative-correlational design was employed using a validated researcher-made survey questionnaire and documentary analysis of school performance records. The study involved 878 respondents comprising 11 Education Program Supervisors, 21 school administrators, 50 Master Teachers, and 796 teachers. Percentage, weighted mean, one-way analysis of variance, Tukey-Kramer post-hoc test, Pearson correlation, and regression analysis were used. Master Teachers’ instructional skills were rated highly evident overall (grand mean = 4.50), with classroom management receiving the highest composite mean (4.67) and innovation and research the lowest (4.15). Organizational commitment was rated very committed (grand mean = 4.46), led by affective commitment (4.57). Significant differences were found among respondent groups across all seven instructional-skill domains. School performance showed varying enrollment, school-leaver, retention, and promotion patterns across schools over three school years. Instructional skills were significantly related to organizational commitment (R = .935, F = 9.234, p = .049), but instructional skills and organizational commitment did not significantly predict school performance. Challenges in instructional skills and organizational commitment were moderately encountered, with composite means of 2.65 and 2.40, respectively. The proposed capability-building program was rated highly suitable, highly acceptable, and highly feasible, each with an overall mean of 4.61. The findings support sustained professional development focused on research, innovation, mentoring, instructional leadership, and organizational engagement.

این پژوهش به ارزیابی مهارت‌های آموزشی معلمان راهنما، تعهد سازمانی و عملکرد مدرسه در دبیرستان‌های دولتی دوره اول متوسطه در منطقه Bacoor City پرداخته و یافته‌ها را به عنوان مبنایی برای برنامه توانمندسازی مورد استفاده قرار داده است. طرح پژوهش توصیفی-مقایسه‌ای-همبستگی با استفاده از پرسشنامه محقق‌ساخته معتبر و تحلیل اسنادی سوابق عملکرد مدارس به کار گرفته شد. جامعه پژوهش شامل ۸۷۸ نفر از جمله ۱۱ ناظر برنامه آموزشی، ۲۱ مدیر مدرسه، ۵۰ معلم راهنما و ۷۹۶ معلم بود. از درصد، میانگین وزنی، تحلیل واریانس یک‌طرفه، آزمون پس از hoc توکی-کرامر، همبستگی پیرسون و تحلیل رگرسیون استفاده شد. مهارت‌های آموزشی معلمان راهنما در مجموع بسیار مشهود ارزیابی شد (میانگین کل = ۴٫۵۰)، که مدیریت کلاس بالاترین میانگین ترکیبی (۴٫۶۷) و نوآوری و پژوهش پایین‌ترین (۴٫۱۵) را داشتند. تعهد سازمانی در سطح بسیار متعهد (میانگین کل = ۴٫۴۶) ارزیابی شد و تعهد عاطفی (۴٫۵۷) در صدر قرار داشت. تفاوت معناداری میان گروه‌های پاسخ‌دهنده در تمامی هفت حوزه مهارت آموزشی مشاهده شد. عملکرد مدرسه در سه سال تحصیلی مختلف، الگوهای متفاوتی از ثبت‌نام، ترک تحصیل، ماندگاری و ارتقاء را نشان داد. مهارت‌های آموزشی با تعهد سازمانی رابطه معناداری داشتند (R = .935, F = 9.234, p = .049)، اما مهارت‌های آموزشی و تعهد سازمانی پیش‌بینی‌کننده معناداری برای عملکرد مدرسه نبودند. چالش‌های مربوط به مهارت‌های آموزشی و تعهد سازمانی در حد متوسط تجربه شدند، با میانگین ترکیبی به ترتیب ۲٫۶۵ و ۲٫۴۰. برنامه پیشنهادی توانمندسازی از نظر تناسب، پذیرش و امکان‌پذیری، هر یک با میانگین کل ۴٫۶۱، بسیار مطلوب ارزیابی شد. یافته‌ها بر توسعه حرفه‌ای مستمر با تمرکز بر پژوهش، نوآوری، مشاوره، رهبری آموزشی و مشارکت سازمانی تأکید دارند.

Background: Although project-based learning (PBL) is well-established in advanced medical curricula, evidence supporting its implementation in first-year undergraduate programs remains limited.Early research exposure may enhance student engagement.Objective: This study evaluated whether structured PBL in muscle physiology was associated with improvements in subject knowledge acquisition among first-year MBBS students.Methods: An observational study was conducted at a single medical institution in Tamil Nadu, India, from July to August 2023.Formal institutional ethics approval was obtained prior to participant recruitment.Of 250 eligible first-year MBBS students, 40 consented to participate; five subsequently withdrew citing curriculum workload concerns, yielding 35 participants (30 females, five males; mean age 18.35 years).Students underwent pre-assessment comprising 10 short-answer questions on muscle physiology (maximum score 20) and were randomized to 10 project groups via lottery.Students conducted investigations on exercise physiology over three to four hours weekly for one month.Post-assessment utilized identical questions.Thirty-two students completed a structured feedback questionnaire (six Likertscale items, 1-5 scale) and provided open-ended commentary.Assessment scores were compared via paired t-testing and Shapiro-Wilk testing.Pearson correlation assessed satisfaction-knowledge associations.Qualitative analysis employed thematic coding by two independent raters using predefined and emergent themes with inter-rater agreement assessment.Results: Post-assessment scores (12.588 ± 2.943) significantly exceeded pre-assessment scores (5.265 ± 2.89), yielding a mean improvement of 7.324 ± 2.446 points (t(34) = -17.952,p < 0.001, Cohen's d = -3.034;95% CI (-3.821, -2.239)).This large effect size must be interpreted cautiously given the observational design, self-selected sample, identical assessment questions, and potential testing-practice effects.Post-hoc power analysis confirmed an achieved power of 0.99.The mean satisfaction score was 22.563 ± 3.519 out of 30.No statistically significant association existed between satisfaction and knowledge improvement (r = 0.082, p = 0.657).Qualitative analysis demonstrated predominantly favorable responses, with 26 of 35 students (74.3%) expressing interest in future research participation.Conclusion: Structured PBL was associated with substantial knowledge improvement and positive student perception among participating students.However, the single-group observational design, self-selected sample, and identical assessments preclude causal inference regarding PBL's effectiveness.Larger comparative randomized trials are necessary to establish whether PBL produces educational benefits relative to standard instruction and whether effects persist over time.

زمینه: اگرچه یادگیری مبتنی بر پروژه (PBL) در برنامه‌های درسی پیشرفته پزشکی به خوبی تثبیت شده است، اما شواهدی که از اجرای آن در برنامه‌های کارشناسی سال اول حمایت کند، محدود است. مواجهه زودهنگام با پژوهش ممکن است مشارکت دانشجویان را افزایش دهد. هدف: این مطالعه بررسی کرد که آیا PBL ساختاریافته در فیزیولوژی عضله با بهبود در کسب دانش موضوعی در میان دانشجویان سال اول MBBS همراه است یا خیر. روش‌ها: یک مطالعه مشاهده‌ای در یک مؤسسه پزشکی در تامیل نادو، هند، از ژوئیه تا اوت 2023 انجام شد. تأییدیه اخلاقی رسمی مؤسسه پیش از جذب شرکت‌کنندگان اخذ شد. از میان 250 دانشجوی واجد شرایط سال اول MBBS، 40 نفر رضایت به شرکت دادند؛ پنج نفر بعداً به دلیل نگرانی از بار درسی برنامه درسی انصراف دادند و در نهایت 35 شرکت‌کننده (30 زن، پنج مرد؛ میانگین سنی 18.35 سال) باقی ماندند. دانشجویان پیش‌آزمونی شامل 10 سؤال کوتاه‌پاسخ درباره فیزیولوژی عضله (حداکثر نمره 20) را گذراندند و به صورت تصادفی از طریق قرعه‌کشی به 10 گروه پروژه تقسیم شدند. دانشجویان به مدت یک ماه، هفته‌ای سه تا چهار ساعت به بررسی‌های فیزیولوژی ورزش پرداختند. پس‌آزمون با استفاده از سؤالات یکسان انجام شد. سی‌ودو دانشجو پرسشنامه بازخورد ساختاریافته (شش آیتم لیکرت، مقیاس 1 تا 5) را تکمیل کردند و نظرات باز ارائه دادند. نمرات ارزیابی با استفاده از آزمون t زوجی و آزمون Shapiro-Wilk مقایسه شد. همبستگی پیرسون برای بررسی ارتباط رضایت و بهبود دانش به کار رفت. تحلیل کیفی با کدگذاری موضوعی توسط دو ارزیاب مستقل با استفاده از تم‌های از پیش تعیین‌شده و نوظهور و ارزیابی توافق بین ارزیابان انجام شد. نتایج: نمرات پس‌آزمون (12.588 ± 2.943) به طور معناداری بالاتر از نمرات پیش‌آزمون (5.265 ± 2.89) بود و بهبود میانگین 7.324 ± 2.446 امتیاز را نشان داد (t(34) = -17.952, p < 0.001, Cohen's d = -3.034؛ 95% CI (-3.821, -2.239)). این اندازه‌ی اثر بزرگ باید با احتیاط تفسیر شود، با توجه به طراحی مشاهده‌ای، نمونه خودانتخابی، سؤالات ارزیابی یکسان و احتمال اثرات تمرین آزمون. تحلیل توان پس از واقعه، توان به‌دست‌آمده 0.99 را تأیید کرد. میانگین نمره رضایت 22.563 ± 3.519 از 30 بود. هیچ ارتباط معنادار آماری بین رضایت و بهبود دانش وجود نداشت (r = 0.082, p = 0.657). تحلیل کیفی عمدتاً پاسخ‌های مطلوب را نشان داد، به طوری که 26 نفر از 35 دانشجو (74.3%) علاقه به مشارکت در پژوهش‌های آینده را ابراز کردند. نتیجه‌گیری: PBL ساختاریافته با بهبود قابل توجه دانش و ادراک مثبت دانشجویان شرکت‌کننده همراه بود. با این حال، طراحی مشاهده‌ای تک‌گروهی، نمونه خودانتخابی و ارزیابی‌های یکسان، استنتاج علی درباره اثربخشی PBL را غیرممکن می‌سازد. مطالعات تصادفی‌سازی‌شده مقایسه‌ای بزرگ‌تر برای تعیین اینکه آیا PBL نسبت به آموزش استاندارد مزایای آموزشی ایجاد می‌کند و آیا این اثرات در طول زمان پایدار می‌مانند، ضروری است.

Introduction This study examined the indirect association between psychological well-being and professional commitment through teacher self-efficacy within the framework of Albert Bandura’s Social Cognitive Theory. Methods A correlational research design was employed with a sample of 330 Turkish language teachers working in public schools in Türkiye. Data were collected using the Teacher Self-Efficacy Scale, the Psychological Well-Being Scale, and the Teachers’ Professional Commitment Scale. Pearson correlation and regression-based indirect-effect analyses were conducted using PROCESS macro Model 4 developed by Andrew F. Hayes. Results Psychological well-being was positively and significantly associated with both teacher self-efficacy and professional commitment. Teacher self-efficacy was also positively and significantly associated with professional commitment. Furthermore, the indirect-effect analysis indicated a statistically significant indirect association between psychological well-being and professional commitment through teacher self-efficacy. The proposed model explained approximately 30% of the variance in professional commitment. Discussion The findings highlight the relevance of teachers’ psychological well-being and self-efficacy to professional commitment and provide context-specific evidence from Turkish language teachers working in the Turkish educational context.

This study aims to analyze the role of parenting dimensions in the development of student character within the multicultural context of Malaysia. Specifically, it examines the relationships between parental care, autonomy, overprotection, and student character among university students. A quantitative research design with a descriptive correlational approach was employed. The sample consisted of 88 university students from UiTM Cawangan Pahang, selected using stratified random sampling to reflect Malaysia's ethnic diversity. Data were collected through validated questionnaires measuring three dimensions of parenting styles (care, autonomy, overprotection) and seven aspects of student character (religiosity, nationalism, integrity, independence, cooperation, tolerance, and empathy). Data analysis utilized descriptive statistics and Pearson correlation with SPSS version 26.0. The findings revealed that democratic parenting was the dominant style (47.7%). Parental care demonstrated the strongest positive correlation with student character (r = 0.687, p < 0.01), followed by autonomy (r = 0.642) and overprotection after reverse scoring (r = 0.589). Empathy showed the highest correlation with care (r = 0.701), while autonomy was most strongly associated with independence (r = 0.689). Overall student character was rated very high (mean = 3.43). Parental care showed the strongest association with student character. These findings highlight the importance of warm and supportive parenting in relation to students' moral and social characteristic moral values and social competencies essential for harmonious coexistence in multicultural society. Recommendations for parents, educators, and policymakers are discussed.

این پژوهش با هدف تحلیل نقش ابعاد فرزندپروری در رشد منش دانشجویان در بستر چندفرهنگی مالزی انجام شده است. به طور خاص، روابط میان مراقبت والدین، خودمختاری، حمایت بیش‌ازحد و منش دانشجویان در میان دانشجویان دانشگاهی مورد بررسی قرار گرفته است. طرح پژوهش کمی با رویکرد توصیفی-همبستگی به کار گرفته شد. نمونه شامل ۸۸ دانشجوی دانشگاه UiTM Cawangan Pahang بود که با استفاده از نمونه‌گیری تصادفی طبقه‌ای به منظور بازتاب تنوع قومی مالزی انتخاب شدند. داده‌ها از طریق پرسشنامه‌های معتبر که سه بعد سبک‌های فرزندپروری (مراقبت، خودمختاری، حمایت بیش‌ازحد) و هفت جنبه منش دانشجویی (دین‌داری، ملی‌گرایی، صداقت، استقلال، همکاری، مدارا و همدلی) را اندازه‌گیری می‌کردند، گردآوری شد. تحلیل داده‌ها با استفاده از آمار توصیفی و همبستگی پیرسون در نرم‌افزار SPSS نسخه ۲۶٫۰ انجام گرفت. یافته‌ها نشان داد که سبک فرزندپروری دموکراتیک غالب بود (۴۷٫۷٪). مراقبت والدین قوی‌ترین همبستگی مثبت را با منش دانشجویان نشان داد (r = 0.687, p < 0.01)، و پس از آن خودمختاری (r = 0.642) و حمایت بیش‌ازحد پس از نمره‌گذاری معکوس (r = 0.589) قرار داشتند. همدلی بالاترین همبستگی را با مراقبت (r = 0.701) داشت، در حالی که خودمختاری بیشترین ارتباط را با استقلال (r = 0.689) نشان داد. میانگین منش کلی دانشجویان بسیار بالا ارزیابی شد (mean = 3.43). مراقبت والدین قوی‌ترین ارتباط را با منش دانشجویان نشان داد. این یافته‌ها اهمیت فرزندپروری گرم و حمایت‌گر را در ارتباط با ارزش‌های اخلاقی و شایستگی‌های اجتماعی دانشجویان که برای همزیستی هماهنگ در جامعه چندفرهنگی ضروری است، برجسته می‌کند. توصیه‌هایی برای والدین، مربیان و سیاست‌گذاران ارائه شده است.

Emotion recognition offers a route to quantifying interaction quality in early childhood education, yet existing methods suffer from unimodal input, poor real-time performance and weak generalization. This study proposes a speech-text multimodal model built on a Mamba encoder with a GatedxLSTM fusion mechanism, in which frame pooling and temporal masking resolve the temporal misalignment between modalities and a learnable gate adjusts modality contribution. Experiments on IEMOCAP and FAU-AIBO, together with an in-house KTC-Pilot corpus of authentic kindergarten interactions used for ecological validation, show that the approach outperforms mainstream baselines in F1, WA and UA. Three child-speech-aware adaptations, namely pitch and formant augmentation, silence-aware frame pooling and disfluency-tolerant text encoding, close the domain gap with authentic kindergarten dialogue, and modality-dropout training, cross-modal reconstruction of missing text and gating regularisation maintain robustness under incomplete inputs. A contamination audit against the CLAP pretraining corpora confirms that the gains do not arise from data leakage. A downstream evaluation using an Interaction Quality Index calibrated against expert observer ratings achieves a Pearson correlation of 0.692 with expert scores. An on-device deployment study on two embedded platforms further shows that the quantised framework sustains an end-to-end latency of 377 ms per utterance at a real-time factor of 0.075 and a board power of 9.6 W while retaining an F1 score of 0.706 on authentic kindergarten audio, and a stage-wise data-handling design keeps raw audio, spectral features and transcripts inside the classroom node so that only a scalar interaction quality value is written to persistent storage. Ablation and visualization analyses confirm the contribution of each structural component to recognition performance and interpretability.

شناسایی هیجان، روشی برای کمی‌سازی کیفیت تعامل در آموزش دوران کودکی ارائه می‌دهد، اما روش‌های موجود با ورودی تک‌وجهی، عملکرد ضعیف در زمان واقعی و تعمیم‌پذیری محدود مواجه هستند. این پژوهش، یک مدل چندوجهی گفتار-متن مبتنی بر رمزگذار Mamba با سازوکار ادغام GatedxLSTM پیشنهاد می‌کند که در آن، تجمیع قاب و پوشش زمانی، عدم‌هم‌زمانی زمانی بین وجه‌ها را رفع می‌کند و یک دروازه قابل یادگیری، سهم هر وجه را تنظیم می‌نماید. آزمایش‌ها بر روی مجموعه‌های IEMOCAP و FAU-AIBO، به همراه پیکره داخلی KTC-Pilot از تعاملات اصیل مهدکودک که برای اعتبارسنجی بوم‌شناختی استفاده شده است، نشان می‌دهد که رویکرد پیشنهادی در معیارهای F1، WA و UA از مبناهای رایج پیشی می‌گیرد. سه سازگاری آگاه از گفتار کودک، شامل افزایش زیر و بمی و فورمانت، تجمیع قاب حساس به سکوت و رمزگذاری متن مقاوم به ناروانی، فاصله حوزه‌ای با گفت‌وگوی اصیل مهدکودک را کاهش می‌دهد و آموزش با حذف وجه، بازسازی متقابل متن مفقود و منظم‌سازی دروازه‌ای، پایداری مدل را در ورودی‌های ناقص حفظ می‌کند. ممیزی آلودگی نسبت به پیکره‌های پیش‌آموزش CLAP تأیید می‌کند که بهبودها ناشی از نشت داده نیست. ارزیابی پایین‌دستی با استفاده از شاخص کیفیت تعامل که بر اساس امتیازدهی ناظران خبره کالیبره شده است، همبستگی پیرسون 0.692 با امتیازهای خبره به دست می‌آورد. مطالعه استقرار بر روی دستگاه در دو پلتفرم تعبیه‌شده نشان می‌دهد که چارچوب کمیت‌یافته، تأخیر انتها به انتهای 377 میلی‌ثانیه به ازای هر بیان را با ضریب زمان واقعی 0.075 و توان برد 9.6 وات حفظ می‌کند، در حالی که امتیاز F1 برابر با 0.706 بر روی صوت اصیل مهدکودک باقی می‌ماند و طراحی مرحله‌ای مدیریت داده‌ها موجب می‌شود صوت خام، ویژگی‌های طیفی و رونوشت‌ها در گره کلاسی باقی بماند و تنها یک مقدار عددی کیفیت تعامل در حافظه دائمی ثبت شود. تحلیل حذف مؤلفه و تجسم، سهم هر جزء ساختاری در عملکرد شناسایی و تفسیرپذیری را تأیید می‌کند.

Purpose: Using data from the ninth wave of the Korean Longitudinal Survey of Women and Families (KLoWF), this study aimed to examine the relationships among subjective health status, spousal shared activities, and depression and to identify factors associated with depression among married postmenopausal women.Methods: A cross-sectional secondary analysis was performed using data from 2,317 married postmenopausal women aged 40–64 years in the ninth wave (2023) of KLoWF. SPSS/WIN 30.0 was used to calculate descriptive statistics and Pearson correlation coefficients and to conduct one-way analysis of variance and hierarchical multiple regression analyses.Results: Depression was negatively correlated with subjective health status (r=−.35, p<.001) and spousal shared activities (r=−.05, p=.017). Subjective health status and spousal shared activities were positively correlated (r=.12, p<.001). Hierarchical multiple regression identified a significant association between subjective health status and depression (β=−.31, p<.001), but no significant association between spousal shared activities and depression (β=.02, p=.257). The final model had an adjusted R2 of .14. In exploratory analyses, depression was positively associated with watching movies, performances, and sports events with a spouse (β=.08, p<.001); none of the other shared activities had a significant association with depression.Conclusion: Subjective health status had the strongest association with depression among married postmenopausal women. The findings suggest that interventions to promote mental health in this population should take subjective health status into account. Further research is needed to determine how associations with mental health outcomes vary by the specific type of spousal shared activity.

هدف: این مطالعه با استفاده از داده‌های موج نهم پیمایش طولی زنان و خانواده‌های کره‌ای (KLoWF) به بررسی روابط بین وضعیت سلامت ذهنی، فعالیت‌های مشترک با همسر و افسردگی و شناسایی عوامل مرتبط با افسردگی در زنان متأهل یائسه پرداخت. روش‌ها: یک تحلیل ثانویه مقطعی با استفاده از داده‌های ۲٬۳۱۷ زن متأهل یائسه ۴۰ تا ۶۴ ساله در موج نهم (۲۰۲۳) KLoWF انجام شد. برای محاسبه آمار توصیفی و ضرایب همبستگی پیرسون و انجام تحلیل واریانس یک‌طرفه و رگرسیون چندگانه سلسله‌مراتبی از SPSS/WIN 30.0 استفاده شد. نتایج: افسردگی با وضعیت سلامت ذهنی (r=−.35, p<.001) و فعالیت‌های مشترک با همسر (r=−.05, p=.017) همبستگی منفی داشت. وضعیت سلامت ذهنی و فعالیت‌های مشترک با همسر با یکدیگر همبستگی مثبت داشتند (r=.12, p<.001). رگرسیون چندگانه سلسله‌مراتبی ارتباط معناداری بین وضعیت سلامت ذهنی و افسردگی (β=−.31, p<.001) نشان داد، اما بین فعالیت‌های مشترک با همسر و افسردگی ارتباط معناداری مشاهده نشد (β=.02, p=.257). مدل نهایی دارای R2 تعدیل‌شده برابر با .14 بود. در تحلیل‌های اکتشافی، افسردگی با تماشای فیلم، اجراها و رویدادهای ورزشی با همسر ارتباط مثبت داشت (β=.08, p<.001)؛ هیچ‌یک از سایر فعالیت‌های مشترک ارتباط معناداری با افسردگی نداشتند. نتیجه‌گیری: وضعیت سلامت ذهنی قوی‌ترین ارتباط را با افسردگی در زنان متأهل یائسه داشت. یافته‌ها نشان می‌دهد که مداخلات برای ارتقای سلامت روان در این جمعیت باید وضعیت سلامت ذهنی را مدنظر قرار دهند. پژوهش‌های بیشتری برای تعیین نحوه تفاوت ارتباط فعالیت‌های مشترک با همسر با پیامدهای سلامت روان بر اساس نوع خاص فعالیت مورد نیاز است.

Purpose: This study examined the associations of the nursing work environment, peer support, and grit with job satisfaction among nurses who had experienced department transfers. Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study included 136 nurses from two tertiary hospitals who had experienced at least one department transfer within the previous three years. Data were collected from June 15 to August 15, 2025, using a structured online questionnaire. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the t-test, analysis of variance, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple linear regression in IBM SPSS version 26.0. Results: Job satisfaction was significantly correlated with the nursing work environment (r=.69, p<.001), peer support (r=.58, p<.001), and grit (r=.63, p<.001). In the multiple linear regression analysis, the nursing work environment (β=.47, p<.001), peer support (β=.35, p<.001), and grit (β=.26, p<.001) were significant factors associated with job satisfaction. Conclusion: The nursing work environment showed the strongest association with job satisfaction, followed by peer support and grit. Supportive work environments, peer-support systems, and organizational strategies that strengthen nurses’ grit may help improve job satisfaction and support adaptation after department transfer.

هدف: این پژوهش به بررسی ارتباط محیط کار پرستاری، حمایت همتایان و سرسختی با رضایت شغلی در میان پرستارانی که تجربه انتقال بین بخشی داشته‌اند، پرداخت. روش‌ها: این مطالعه توصیفی مقطعی شامل ۱۳۶ پرستار از دو بیمارستان سطح سوم بود که طی سه سال گذشته حداقل یک بار انتقال بین بخشی را تجربه کرده بودند. داده‌ها از ۱۵ ژوئن تا ۱۵ اوت ۲۰۲۵ از طریق پرسشنامه ساختاریافته آنلاین جمع‌آوری شد. داده‌ها با استفاده از آمار توصیفی، آزمون t، تحلیل واریانس، ضریب همبستگی پیرسون و رگرسیون خطی چندگانه در نرم‌افزار IBM SPSS نسخه ۲۶.۰ تحلیل شدند. یافته‌ها: رضایت شغلی با محیط کار پرستاری (r=.69, p<.001)، حمایت همتایان (r=.58, p<.001) و سرسختی (r=.63, p<.001) همبستگی معناداری داشت. در تحلیل رگرسیون خطی چندگانه، محیط کار پرستاری (β=.47, p<.001)، حمایت همتایان (β=.35, p<.001) و سرسختی (β=.26, p<.001) به عنوان عوامل معنادار مرتبط با رضایت شغلی شناسایی شدند. نتیجه‌گیری: محیط کار پرستاری قوی‌ترین ارتباط را با رضایت شغلی نشان داد و پس از آن حمایت همتایان و سرسختی قرار گرفتند. محیط‌های کاری حمایتی، نظام‌های حمایت همتایان و راهبردهای سازمانی که به تقویت سرسختی پرستاران کمک می‌کنند، می‌توانند به بهبود رضایت شغلی و حمایت از سازگاری پس از انتقال بین بخشی کمک نمایند.

This study examined the associations between emotion regulation and marital expectations among unmarried young adults and whether these associations included statistically significant indirect associations through phubbing. Utilizing a cross-sectional correlational design, data were collected from 627 unmarried young adults aged 18-35 using the Marital Expectations Scale, Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire, and Generic Scale of Phubbing. Pearson correlation and bootstrap-based mediation analyses were conducted. Results indicated that marital expectations correlated positively with positive emotion regulation and negatively with phubbing, while negative emotion regulation was positively associated with phubbing. Bootstrap analyses identified statistically significant indirect associations through phubbing for both positive and negative emotion regulation. The negative emotion regulation model showed an inconsistent mediation pattern, with the direct and indirect associations operating in opposite directions. Supplementary analyses indicated that these indirect patterns remained when age and gender were controlled. These cross-sectional findings describe statistical associations and do not establish temporal or causal mediation. Overall, young adults' marital expectations are linked to both emotional processes and digital interpersonal attention patterns, highlighting the need to consider contemporary digital behaviors alongside developmental and sociodemographic influences in future relational research.

این مطالعه به بررسی ارتباط بین تنظیم هیجان و انتظارات زناشویی در میان بزرگسالان جوان مجرد و این‌که آیا این ارتباط‌ها شامل ارتباط‌های غیرمستقیم معنادار آماری از طریق فابینگ می‌شود یا خیر، پرداخت. با استفاده از یک طرح همبستگی مقطعی، داده‌ها از ۶۲۷ بزرگسال جوان مجرد در بازه سنی ۱۸ تا ۳۵ سال با استفاده از مقیاس انتظارات زناشویی، پرسشنامه تنظیم شناختی هیجان و مقیاس عمومی فابینگ جمع‌آوری شد. تحلیل همبستگی پیرسون و تحلیل‌های میانجی‌گری مبتنی بر بوت‌استرپ انجام شد. نتایج نشان داد که انتظارات زناشویی با تنظیم هیجان مثبت رابطه مثبت و با فابینگ رابطه منفی دارد، در حالی که تنظیم هیجان منفی با فابینگ رابطه مثبت نشان داد. تحلیل‌های بوت‌استرپ وجود ارتباط‌های غیرمستقیم معنادار آماری از طریق فابینگ را برای هر دو نوع تنظیم هیجان مثبت و منفی شناسایی کرد. مدل تنظیم هیجان منفی الگوی میانجی‌گری ناسازگار را نشان داد، به‌طوری که ارتباط‌های مستقیم و غیرمستقیم در جهت‌های مخالف عمل می‌کردند. تحلیل‌های تکمیلی نشان داد که این الگوهای غیرمستقیم هنگام کنترل سن و جنسیت نیز باقی می‌مانند. این یافته‌های مقطعی صرفاً به توصیف ارتباط‌های آماری می‌پردازند و میانجی‌گری زمانی یا علّی را اثبات نمی‌کنند. به طور کلی، انتظارات زناشویی بزرگسالان جوان با فرآیندهای هیجانی و الگوهای توجه بین‌فردی دیجیتال مرتبط است و بر لزوم توجه به رفتارهای دیجیتال معاصر در کنار عوامل رشدی و جمعیت‌شناختی در پژوهش‌های آینده روابط تأکید دارد.
