Abstract: This study discussed the themes of multimedia proselytising on Facebook used by Makassar's preachers as well as the usage of various forms of multimedia to convey messages to audiences (mad'u) through the Facebook social network. This research was a qualitative study using a content analysis approach. The results of the study stated that the themes conveyed by the preachers were aqidah (faith), sharia (Islamic law), akhlak (manner) morals, mu'amalah (dealings between people), and general messages, such as education, behaviour, and defending the country. While the forms of multimedia proselytising used by da'i (Islamic preachers) were the textual message, images, audio, and video. In addition, da'i needed to improve the quality of material and media da'wa by using information technology through internet media in order to get effective communication (da'wah).

ABSTRACT This study provides evidence regarding the importance that boards of directors place on effective communication with the investor community by examining whether CEO and CFO compensation are related to the quality of the firm's financial disclosures. Using an index derived from analyst forecast characteristics and management forecast accuracy to measure disclosure quality, we find changes in the annual bonus for both the CEO and CFO to be positively associated with changes in disclosure quality. We also find that the relation is stronger for high-growth firms, firms that have stronger governance structures, and for executives with lower equity incentives. Overall, our findings provide insight into the importance that boards place on effective communication with investors as a responsibility of the CEO and CFO and, therefore, provide them with contractual incentives to address the moral hazard problem associated with voluntary disclosures.

Effective communication about decisions concerning termination or refusal of medical treatment except for pain relief necessitates clarifying the attitudes of those in the decision-making process. Effective communication increases the likelihood that a patient's advance directives are implemented and decreases the likelihood of litigation. Psychotherapists, counselors, chaplains, etc. can be facilitators of effective communication. This study generated a list for use in discussion by asking persons who cared for individuals with terminal illnesses, critical injuries or elderly people what conditions seemed appropriate for termination or refusal of medical treatment except for pain relief. The 182 out of 204 individuals who contributed conditions showed clear agreement on terminal illnesses, brain disorders, dependence on machines for life, and other irreversible deterioration or severe loss of quality of life, lack of suitable treatment, patient's wish, and concern about the effect of the patient's condition on others. Some specified further qualifications, such as at what point during a terminal illness termination or refusal was appropriate. The list with notes could be appended to a Living Will or a Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care. The notes should be updated periodically. Through use and research, the list also can be refined further.

Language is the most important tool we have for effective human communication, and the efficacy of communication is therefore directly related to the quality of this oral communication medium. The effectiveness of communication depends on several factors, the most important of which are the contents of the communication, the parties involved in the communication and the setting in which the communication takes place.  Bad communication can lead to a complete breakdown in relationship and cause misunderstandings which quite often lead to conflicts between elements in the social structure. Effective communication has a very important role in creating an environment for reasoned debat, discussion and understanding in global society, and in this regard the current American approach to creating conducive to reasoned debate on the issue of global terrorisme is hypothesized to be in the less-than-effective category.

Centered Care

A locally-adapted, multisensory, psychosocial intervention called Namaste Care program was developed to improve the daily life of persons with advanced dementia (PwAD) through arranging meaningful activities and physical interactions by healthcare staff (Namaste Carers). Congruent with Asian values, the families of PwAD were invited to participate in Namaste Care sessions. The study aimed to explore the influence of Namaste Care on cognitive status and quality of life (QOL) of PwAD, and perceptions and attitudes of caregivers and Namaste Carers toward dementia care were determined. A total of 10 individuals, including patient-caregiver dyads (n = 4) and Namaste Carers (n = 6) participated in a program in a tertiary hospital in Singapore. Quality of Life in Late-Stage Dementia (QUALID) scale and Severe Impairment Rating Scale (SIRS) were employed to evaluate QOL and cognition, respectively, in the pre- and post-survey program in patient-caregiver dyads. Namaste Carers’ knowledge and attitudes toward PwAD were assessed using the Questionnaire on Palliative Care for Advanced Dementia (qPAD). Caregivers and Namaste carers were interviewed post-program separately. A concurrent explanatory mixed-method analysis was done. The mean age of PwAD was 84 years, with 75% (n = 3) patients on enteral tube feeding. Namaste carers were nurses with an average experience of 4.1 years in dementia care. On comparison of pre- and post-program scores of PwAD, QUALID scores showed a decrease (indicating an improvement in the QOL), while the SIRS scores were increased (indicating an improved cognitive response). Namaste Carers scored high on qPAD, reflecting the good understanding and a positive attitude toward PwAD. Thematic analysis of 10 interview transcripts from caregivers and Namaste Carers revealed three themes: the polarizing paradigm of care in advanced dementia; pre-eminence of the Asian family values, and theme of “small actions make a big difference”. Namaste Care served as a bridge between the person-centered care approach and the biomedical model of dementia care. Namaste Care with family participation may be the cornerstone of PwAD to receive culturally-appropriate personalized care and serve as a premise for the operationalization of person-centered care in Asian societies, and undeniably across the world.

Every human is getting old and we must attempt to be happy in the old time. The problem is 17.5% of elderly people have poor quality of life and 62.5% are sufficient. Elderly at this level needs immediate intervention because it will be a burden for families. communities and governments. This study aims to analyze the family participation on improving the quality of life. An observational study with cross sectional approach with population study at Posyandu Lansia Mekar Sari Surabaya. We used purposive sampling method. We took 54 samples elderly aged ≥ 60 years out of 96 elderly who enrolled in Posyandu year 2016. Data were obtained from WHOQoL-BREF and family role questionnaire. We analyzed the data with Rank Spearman’s Correlation. There was a positive correlation between the family role and the quality of life (p=0.000.. r=0.568). mainly by environmental domain (p=0.000. r=0.561). psychological domain (p=0.008. r=0.358). and social relations domain (p=0.011. r=0.345). but not for physical domain (p=0.154. r=0.917). The family participation such as adaptation. partnership. growth. affection. and resolve could be one method to improve the quality of life of elderly. Every increasing family value would add up to 26.3-43.2% assessment the quality of life.
