Abstract Human create the environment and, finally, environment shape the human’s character. The quality of life are strongly affected by state of person and environment in which it is lived. How long the process of integrity, what someone goes through, will affect the level of change to their lifestyle and that will affect to their next quality of life. Even though, these parameters can’t be used to measure the quality of life of the children. The world of children is a multidimensional world. Several domains and dimensions used as approach will determine whether there is improvement in their lives. This study is to show the influence of children’s creativity and creative environment on their quality of life. The importance of this study is to form a critical community mindset in creating a creative environment through architectural elements, so that it can improve the children’s growth and development, and finally it will impact to improve their quality of life. Bivariate and Multivariate correlational was used to prove the relationship between children’s creativity and creative environment variables with quality of life.

Environmental pollution and ecological degradation in China have continued to be serious problems and have inflicted great damage on the economy and quality of life. As the largest developing country, China’s fiscal and taxation policies on environmental protection and sustainable development will be of primary importance not only for China, but also the world. By taking a critical look at the development of Chinese environmental fiscal and taxation policy, we try to determine how best to coordinate the relationship between the environment and the economy in order to improve quality of life and the sustainability of China’s resources and environment.

Abstract BackgroundIncreasing numbers of nurses, pharmacists and allied health professionals across the world have prescribing rights: over 90,000 of the eligible United Kingdom workforce are qualified as non-doctor prescribers. In order to inform future developments, it is important to understand the benefits and impact of prescribing by allied health professionals including physiotherapists and podiatrists.Aim: to compare outcomes of Physiotherapist and Podiatrist Independent Prescriber (PP- IP) patients with those of Physiotherapist and Podiatrist non-prescribers (PP-NPs). Outcome measures included patient satisfaction, ease of access to services, quality of life and cost implications.Design: a mixed method comparative case studyMethods: Using mixed methods of data collection, outcomes were compared between 7 sites where care was provided from a PP-IP (3 podiatrist and 4 physiotherapist IPs) and 7 sites from a PP-NP (3 podiatrist and 4 physiotherapist NPs). Patients were followed up for 2 months (2015-2016).Results: 488 patients were recruited: n=243 IP sites, and n=245 NP sites. Independent prescribing was found to be highly acceptable, and equivalent in terms of quality of life (p>0.05) and patient satisfaction (p≤0.05) compared to care provided by NPs. PP-IP care delivery was found to be more resource intensive than NP-PP, with longer consultation duration for IPs (around 6.5 mins), and a higher proportion of physiotherapy patients discussed with medical colleagues (around 9.5 minutes). ConclusionThis study provides new knowledge that PP-IPs provide high levels of care. PP-IP care delivery was found to be more resource intensive. Further research is required to explore cost effectiveness. A more focussed exploration within each profession using targeted outcome measures would enable a more robust comparison, inform future developments around the world and help ensure non-doctor prescribing is recognised as an effective way to alleviate shortfalls in the global workforce.

Employees’ health is being affected not only by the possibility of contracting COVID-19, but by all the negative consequences that this pandemic has brought, such as confinement, social distancing, and self-isolation. In recent decades, more companies have opted for corporate well-being programmes in their workplaces, improving the health and quality of life of their employees. The effects generated by the current COVID-19 pandemic require these programmes to adapt to this new situation. The objective of this case study is to analyse the corporate well-being programme, in times of COVID-19, of Mahou San Miguel, a benchmark company in corporate well-being in Spain. A mixed method approach to data collection was used. The findings show the benefits achieved in its adaptation to this new physical-virtual environment. This paper could help other companies around the world to adapt their corporate well-being programmes to the new reality brought about by COVID-19.

The difficulty of conducting an empirical assessment of the true extent of corruption, caused by the lack of the necessary data, has contributed to the emergence of a new round of research focusing on the study of the influence of various factors on corruption. At the same time, such studies are distinguished by a variety of approaches to the choice of indicators and objects of study, as well as by the difference, and sometimes contradictory conclusions. These circumstances actualize the research topic. The purpose of the article to determine the relationship between corruption, economic growth and the quality of life of the population in five countries of the world, representing different parts of the world and geo-economics regions. The hypothesis of the study is the assertion that for developed countries the correlation between perceptions of corruption and indicators will be lower than for developing countries. The objects of research are Kazakhstan, Russia, Germany, USA and Finland. The subject of the research the relationship between the level of corruption, economic growth and the quality of life of the population. The study uses statistical research methods. The initial data of the study were the reports of Transparency International on the Corruption Perceptions Index, UNDP on the Human Development Index, as well as official data from the state statistical services of the countries in question.In the course of the work, the boundaries of the interpretation of the term “corruption” were determined, the relevance of the study of the relationship between corruption, GDP per capita and the quality of life was briefly described, and a correlation analysis was carried out between the indicators. The results of the study represent conclusions about the quality and strength of the relationship between corruption, economic growth and the quality of life of the population. The scientific contribution of the research is to substantiate possible directions for improving research to establish the relationship between corruption and other socio-economic indicators. The practical significance of the study lies in the presentation of the evidence base for the fact that the relationship of the studied indicators may be different in different countries. The direction for future research is the possibility of using the assessment methodology for other groups of countries.
