This study utilizes Principal Component Analysis on data from 23 countries between 2017 and 2023 to reveal that similar homicide rates can mask distinct socio-economic configurations and that organized crime actors are primarily associated with specific combinations of development, fertility, and urbanization factors rather than a single crime metric.
This study utilizes structural equation modeling on 386 Chinese university students to demonstrate that teacher-student emotional bonds in online Russian language learning—comprising emotional responsiveness, cultural identity resonance, and digital emotional presence—significantly enhance cognitive, behavioral, and affective engagement through the mediating mechanisms of self-efficacy and learning motivation.
This paper establishes a genealogy of the concept of bricolage, tracing its evolution from Lévi-Strauss's anthropological metaphor to its fragmented application across diverse disciplines, with the aim of consolidating its meanings and fostering interdisciplinary dialogue.
Drawing on interviews with 41 single women in Lanzhou, this study introduces the concept of "negotiated autonomy" to illustrate how inland Chinese women navigate the sexual double bind through three distinct strategies, revealing that subjective wellbeing and cognitive coherence are largely contingent on economic privilege and marital status.
This paper argues that to remain effective and ethical in Nigeria's digital era, counselors must transition from traditional face-to-face models to technology-driven hybrid practices by acquiring new digital competencies, adapting therapeutic skills for online environments, and embracing lifelong learning to meet evolving client needs.
This study employs a mixed-method analysis of the Confucius Temple in Nanjing to demonstrate that English's symbolic value and viewer reception in Chinese heritage-tourism sites are not uniform but are instead dynamically constructed through distinct discursive frames—Regulatory-Orientational, Heritage-Cultural, and Commercial—that govern how language codes operate within specific production regimes.
This randomized controlled study demonstrates that Socratic generative AI feedback, compared to direct answers, significantly enhances delayed near-transfer accuracy and far-transfer production in second language learning while improving confidence calibration, despite inducing higher cognitive load.
This qualitative case study of Kebumen Geopark introduces the Adaptive Pentahelix Governance framework, demonstrating how integrating government, academia, business, community, and media through collaborative learning and trust-building transforms tourism governance into an inclusive, resilient system that advances Sustainable Development Goals despite challenges in coordination and conflicting interests.
This quasi-experimental study demonstrates that a structured digital training program significantly enhances the digital maturity of faculty members at the University of Latakia in Syria, providing empirical evidence that targeted professional development is a critical driver for institutional digital transformation in resource-constrained higher education contexts.
This study demonstrates that integrating the Case Method and Team-Based Projects in Appropriate Technology Design effectively bridges the vocational skills gap by fostering a hierarchical development of 4C competencies, where critical thinking and creativity enhance communication, which in turn drives effective collaboration among mechanical engineering students.
