This qualitative study identifies governance and management missteps, particularly fraud and poor leadership in Savings and Credit Cooperative Societies (SACCOS), as primary drivers of declining co-operative sustainability in East Africa, advocating for robust governance frameworks and professional leadership to ensure revitalization.
This study demonstrates that among first-time mothers, intolerance of uncertainty during pregnancy indirectly predicts personal growth at 3–6 months postpartum through a serial mediation pathway involving increased perceived stress and resistance to change in the early postpartum period.
Through a combination of Bayesian network analysis across five studies (N=11,994) and four preregistered experiments, this research identifies and validates two distinct, asymmetric cognitive pathways to sustainability decisions: one driven by knowledge that strongly influences beliefs and policy support, and another rooted in environmental identity that produces smaller effects.
This paper argues that while existing frameworks for detecting biased argumentation identify reasoning patterns, they risk perpetuating argumentative injustice by overlooking the social identities of arguers and devaluing non-dominant, non-logocentric forms of expression like narratives and testimonials.
This study of 27,630 Japanese adults demonstrates that the protective effects of relational resources against childhood adversity are not uniform, as non-parental mentoring is particularly beneficial for those who felt a lack of parental love, while adult friendships are more effective at reducing loneliness for those who experienced event-based or conditional adversity.
This study reveals that while preservice mathematics teachers in Israel, Türkiye, and Italy share a common emphasis on the dialogic-cognitive aspects of mathematical argumentation, their interpretations of its mathematical, social, and affective dimensions vary significantly across educational contexts, reflecting both shared professional understandings and localized curricular influences.
This article argues that Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism (P/CVE) can be enhanced by selectively adapting established crime prevention approaches—such as developmental, community, and situational strategies—while maintaining context-sensitive, evidence-based practices that avoid stigmatization and clearly distinguish between vulnerability, radicalization, and violence.
This study found that while impulsivity is significantly associated with negative self-reported driving behaviors among Chinese employee drivers, personal innovativeness in IT does not moderate these associations.
This study demonstrates that implementing a seven-week EFL writing program grounded in Self-Determination Theory, with a specific emphasis on fostering teacher-student relatedness, effectively enhances learning motivation and writing experiences among Chinese English major students.
This paper reinterprets the Filipino concept of *pariwara* not as a permanent moral failure but as a transient state of existential disorientation that, when examined through existential, ethical, and relational frameworks like *kapwa* and *loob*, can serve as a transformative turning point toward authentic being, moral responsibility, and renewed social connection.
