The study explores data on the contribution of education, employment, and ethnicity to the integration of Muslims and Christians in Central Lampung Regency by looking at the sociological dynamics of integration between Muslims and Christians. The integration group is divided into two, majority-minority and balanced group, based on religious affiliation. Data is collected using observation, interviews, and questionnaires consisting of favorable and unfavorable. The data collected is analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. Quantitative analysis is carried out using one-way analysis of variance using the SPSS computer program while qualitative analysis is carried out using logical thinking including induction, deduction, analogy and comparison. The results of the study indicate that there are differences in integration between villages with a majority-minority and balanced religious composition, that the majority-minority community group has a higher quality of integration than the balanced group. The education variable shows that the level of education has a positive relationship with the level of integration. The higher the education is, the higher the quality of integration is. The job variable has no significant effect, but the overall mean is above the hypothetical mean. Ethnicity variables indicate variations in the quality of integration, in which the Batak and Javanese ethnicities have high integration quality, Palembang ethnicity is moderate, and Lampung ethnicity has low integration quality.

Abstract The present study sets out to investigate an important aspect of gendered performance, namely, the presence of interactional metadiscourse in conference presentations delivered in Persian. The study pursues two primary objectives: firstly, to compare the quantity and quality of interactional metadiscourse markers as expressed by male and female academics; secondly, to investigate some other factors influencing the phenomenon under investigation. The data include twenty-four conference presentations by twelve males and twelve females. The quantitative analysis showed a statistically significant difference in the use of interactional metadiscourse by male and female presenters. However, the qualitative analysis helped the authors to identify more similarities than differences. In point of fact, such factors as academic status and nativeness had caused the speakers to use different metadiscourse strategies.

Recently, the need to apply strategic planning methodologies in business has risen, since corporations are part of a globalized world in which technological change and economic dynamism are evolving at a faster pace. Thus, firms must perform not only efficiently but also effectively in adapting to changes as they occur in the political, economic, technological, legal and environmental dimensions. This dictates the need for new strategic organizational positioning. The potential usefulness of the scenarios methodology was investigated for a sample of financial institutions with assets in the Brazilian market, based on management reports and in accordance with strategic dimensions needed to cope with crises. Therefore, we propose a new methodology for the qualitative analysis of official management reports, which indicates a perception of scenario building within organizations. The results suggest a positive relationship between the quality of the process of generating scenarios and the financial results of the banking institution. Key-words: Scenarios. Financial institutions. Crisis.

The article deals with the essence of the concept of uncertainty, its types and types. Factors determining the uncertainty of the external environment of the enterprise are studied. It is shown that uncertainty is characterized by such concepts as unpredictability, randomness, ambiguity, vagueness. There are uncertainties, the precondition of which is intentional or unintentional distortion of information by the individual; institutional; technological; organizational. Mechanism of the influence of uncertainty on determining the value of an enterprise is defined. To assess the accuracy of the result of the assessment of the market value of the enterprise, the authors proposed to perform an analysis of uncertainty using qualitative and quantitative analysis. Qualitative analysis of uncertainty in assessing market value is to identify factors that affect the results of the study, assess these factors from the standpoint of the probability of occurrence and the degree of impact on the final result and their ranking. An explanation of the causes and sources of uncertainty is also a mandatory element of qualitative analysis. Quantitative analysis should include a numerical estimate of the uncertainty. It can be done by calculating the uncertainty interval or by statistical analysis methods. Quantitative analysis is the calculation of standard deviations, approximation errors and uncertainty intervals based on estimated cost values. It is concluded that the uncertainty is a decisive factor in determining the value of an enterprise (business). The greater the degree of uncertainty in the external environment in which the enterprise operates, than its market value will be the less. The quantitative mechanism of influence of uncertainty on the market value is carried out through capitalization ratio. The results of the qualitative analysis have revealed that the uncertainty in estimating the market value of Ukrainian enterprises is largely due on the one hand, factors of insufficient quality of source data, such as incomplete market data, underdeveloped Ukrainian stock market, and on the other hand econometric, the most significant of which there is modeling on sample sets.

Background: Bipolar affective disorder (BPAD) is one of the most common severe mental illnesses that cause morbidity. Stigma can negatively influence the disease experience in patients with BPAD. Significant differences are observed in the attributes of stigma across the various sociocultural milieus. The current review was thus conducted to compile the evidence regarding the burden and correlates of various forms of stigma in BPAD in India. Methods: An exhaustive literature review was conducted in PubMed, MedIND, and Google Scholar to identify Indian studies conducted on stigma in BPAD. The broad themes in various forms of stigma were identified (qualitative analysis). Quantitative analysis of measures of stigma was done, calculating the effect size in BPAD and comparator groups (schizophrenia and anxiety disorders) using standardized mean difference. Results: Overall, 12 studies could be identified for qualitative analysis, and 5 were used for quantitative analysis. Overall, the current evidence points out that the stigma in BPAD is less than that in schizophrenia but more than that in anxiety disorders. Internalized stigma in BPAD is correlated with poor self-esteem, reduced community participation, and low quality of life. Caregivers of patients with BPAD also experience significant stigma. Conclusions: The review shows that stigma in BPAD is substantial. It also draws attention to the fact that the research regarding stigma in BPAD is lagging behind. This review also provides a platform to develop an intervention in the Indian scenario, where further research should be carried out.

This study investigates the effects of age, level of education, and institutionalization on the development of logical thinking. Seven Piagetian tasks, encompassing three levels of difficulty, were administered to thirty-four persons sixty-eight years of age or older. A significant positive relationship was found between success on tasks and educational level. With education controlled, Community-active elders performed significantly better than Institutionalized elders. Within the limitations of a cross-sectional design, results supported the hypothesis that cognitive abilities in old age retain an orderly structure.

When interacting on a learning task, which is typical of several academic situations, individuals may experience two different motives: Understanding the problem, or showing their competences. When a conflict (confrontation of divergent propositions) emerges from this interaction, it can be solved either in an epistemic way (focused on the task) or in a relational way (focused on the social comparison of competences). The latter is believed to be detrimental for learning. Moreover, research on cooperative learning shows that when they share identical information, partners are led to compare to each other, and are less encouraged to cooperate than when they share complementary information. An epistemic vs. relational conflict vs. no conflict was provoked in dyads composed by a participant and a confederate, working either on identical or on complementary information (N = 122). Results showed that, if relational and epistemic conflicts both entailed more perceived interactions and divergence than the control group, only relational conflict entailed more perceived comparison activities and a less positive relationship than the control group. Epistemic conflict resulted in a more positive perceived relationship than the control group. As far as performance is concerned, relational conflict led to a worse learning than epistemic conflict, and - after a delay - than the control group. An interaction between the two variables on delayed performance showed that epistemic and relational conflicts were different only when working with complementary information. This study shows the importance of the quality of relationship when sharing information during cooperative learning, a crucial factor to be taken into account when planning educational settings at the university.

The article considers the role of trust in the economy, the mechanisms of its accumulation and the possibility of using it as one of the growth factors in the future. The advantages and disadvantages of measuring the level of generalized trust using two alternative questions — about trusting people in general and trusting strangers — are analyzed. The results of the analysis of dynamics of the level of generalized trust among Russian youth, obtained within the study of the Institute for National Projects in 10 regions of Russia, are presented. It is shown that there are no significant changes in trust in people in general during the study at university. At the same time, the level of trust in strangers falls, which can negatively affect the level of trust in the country as a whole, and as a result have negative effects on the development of the economy in the future. Possible causes of the observed trends and the role of universities are discussed. Also the question about the connection between the level of education and generalized trust in countries with different quality of the institutional environment is raised.

The contribution of universities to economic structure, social and physical insfrastructure, the quality of life and city, and the level of education cannot be regarded. Therefore, it should be provided that university campuses should be areas which reflect city image with their physical structures. In this regard, the effective administration, usage, and development of universities, and the coordination between the units of universities should also be provided. One of the most significant elements of this coordination and cooperation is on campus transportation. One of the main purposes of the thesis is to evaluate inner campus transportation which is the sub-unit of city transportation. Other purposes are to determine the reasons of the perception of the users in reference to their demographic features on campus transportation and the reasons of their preferences of a particular transportation option. A survey study has been conducted in order to measure inner campus transportation perceptions. In this regard, 1112 questionnaire forms have been analysed by the software programme of SPSS. Expression analysis of the reliability, frequency distribution and factors are obtained, and differences were identified by ANOVA and T-TEST analysis.
