Resumen:Diversos estudios muestran la importancia de formar a los futuros maestros, tanto en la adquisición de una clara conciencia emocional, como en la reflexión de su propia tarea docente. Mediante una metodología cuantitativa, y más concretamente a partir de un diseño transversal, en nuestro trabajo se pretende evaluar el nivel de inteligencia emocional (atención, claridad y reparación emocional) de los maestros en formación inicial y analizar la relación existente entre el rendimiento académico y la inteligencia emocional en una muestra constituida por 500 estudiantes de los Grados de Maestro en Educación Primaria y Maestro en Educación Infantil de la Facultad de Educación de Badajoz de la Universidad de Extremadura (España) mediante el test de autoinforme TMMS-24 de Fernández-Berrocal, Extremera y Ramos (2004). Los resultados encontrados permitieron afirmar que existen diferencias estadísticamente significativas en el nivel de claridad y reparación emocional según el sexo y en el nivel de inteligencia emocional según el Grado en el que se encuentran matriculados los futuros maestros y según el itinerario realizado en el último curso universitario. Además, encontramos una relación positiva y estadísticamente significativa entre el nivel de inteligencia emocional de los maestros en formación inicial y su rendimiento académico universitario. Abstract:Several studies show the importance of educating future teachers, both in acquiring a clear emotional awareness and reflection of their own teaching. The main aim of the present study is to evaluate the level of emotional intelligence (care, emotional clarity and repair) that teachers in Initial Teacher Training have. Furthermore, an analysis of the relationship between academic achievement and emotional intelligence will be carried out. The methodology employed is quantitative, specifically a cross-sectional design. The sample analyzed consists of 500 students of the Degree in Primary Education and Degree in Nursery Education in the Faculty of Education (Badajoz) at the University of Extremadura (Spain). The main tool used is the self-test TMMS-24 (Fernández-Berrocal, Extremera & Ramos, 2004). Results support the conclusion that there are statistically significant differences in the level of clarity and emotional repair depending on the gender as well as differences in the level of emotional intelligence depending on the degree they study and the specialty they are enrolled in. Finally, we found a positive and statistically significant relationship between the level of emotional intelligence of teachers in initial teacher training and their academic performance.

Local wisdom can be learned through discovery of physical elements of traditional villages, such as spatial layout, architectural objects, and daily activities. The organization prevailing in environment plays an important role in managing a contextual mitigation culture. The co-existence of authority (mandate) masters have the authority of value/cultural capital and to create symbolic elements, such as will or belief. Sindang Barang Cultural Village was taken as a case study to reveal the history and role of the mandate in the culture of disaster mitigation. This study aims to observe the role of the mandate and its impact in disaster mitigation. The role of the mandate is also examined to see the existence of efforts to preserve the values of local wisdom towards the times. This research uses descriptive-qualitative method by tracing the phenomena and artifacts in the field. The analysis carried out in two phases. The first phase is to create a mitigation concept table based on the existing program or artifacts. The second phase is to discuss the mitigation culture based on its classified capacities. The mitigation seen from the Sindang Barang Cultural Village program and artifacts is the risk of fire, earthquake, and landslide. The process of determining a mandate is commensurate with adaptive capacity because this stage tends to lead to restriction or orders about in program that is carried out systematically in particular context.

Introduction: Urban firefighting is a challenge however very less is known about how the firefighters manage on addressing fire disasters when it occurs or what sort of health risks they generally face. The health risks in firefighting are abundant however very less is explored, in regard to the Nepalese context. This study thus aims to explore general characteristics and potential stress causing factors among urban firefighters of Kathmandu valley as Nepal lacks any such study. Methods: A qualitative study design with in-depth interview questions were used to interview 15 currently employed firefighters and the station in charge of Kathmandu valley and thematic analysis was done to derive results. The study was conducted in two phases, the first phase including the use of locally translated and validated DASS-21 (Depression Anxiety and Depression Scale) tool to identify potentially stress suffering firefighters while the second phase included use of in-depth interview (IDI) and key informant interview (KII) format to explore stress causing factors among firefighters. Results: The results showed that most firefighters were stressed due family separations, difficult PPEs, lack of human resource adequacies, income insufficiency, underwhelming response at active site and lack of health addressing programs in the station. The firefighters additionally mentioned stress due to recurring bluff calls and unmanaged traffic in the city. Conclusion: Despite the solvable problems, the station lacked standard operating guidelines, physical fitness and mental well-being programs, deemed essential for the occupation in general. Therefore, concerned authorities must prioritize the needs of urban fire station and firefighters.

The purpose of this study is to develop the EQ module to help improve emotional intelligence teachers. Explanatory mixed methods designs were utilized in the method section. This was a two-phase study which started by an observation study involving 112 teachers to decide the EQ co-competency that needed intervention. Furthermore, this study also utilized a case study (n= 32 working professionals) and document analysis (n= 12 documents), to decide the methods and usefulness of the module in developing a valid co-competency. The data for the first phase were collected using an EQ instrument (IKEM/MEQI), and was analyzed using the SPSS softwares. Whereas the data from the second phase were collected through an in-depth interview, group interview and document analysis, which were then analyzed using the NVivo 2 and NVivo 7softwares. The findings of the first phase showed that there are 11 EQ competencies that needed intervention (emotioanal awareness, Accurate Self-Assessment, self confidence, honesty, self controll, Trustworthiness, achievement drive, Undertanding others, developing others, influence, conflict managemet). The case studies also showed that there are certain methods to increase those 11 EQ competencies. The result of both phases were used as the foundation to develop an EQ module which was the main objective of this study. All of those competencies has been trained for 4 days using the newly developed EQ module. The result of the study showed that there are improvements on those 11 EQ competencies. Training participants also said that they had fun in the training using the newly developed EQ module.

AbstractIn the wake of the Russian plane crash in November in 2015 in Sinai, Russia and a number of countries suspended their airlines from operating routes to Sharm el-Sheikh, causing a severe tourist crisis. By the end of 2015, tourism receipts fell by about USD 3.6 billion to represent only 1.1 percent of GDP (IMF, 2017). During the 26 months air traffic suspension, Egypt becomes a word that conjures negative images such as unsafe destination, insecure environment and politically unstable country which sent a danger signal to the observing people of the possible risks involved in visiting Egypt (Matthews, 2016). However, during this period Egypt pursued a collective effort to enhance Egypt’s image and to encourage the tourism markets to resume their travels to Egypt. In January 2018, the Russian government finally lifted its two years ban on Russian tourism to Egypt and Russian flights returned to Cairo in April 2018 (Samir, 2019).This study aims to uncover strategies used by Egypt’s authorities to restore a positive image in the aftermath of Russian flights suspension, based on Benoit’s (1997) “multi-strategies model for repairing a destination image”. The study applies a qualitative content analysis of 30 semi-structured interviews with officials in the Egyptian tourism and civic aviation authorities. The efforts to repair the image of the Egyptian tourism industry evolved through two phases. At first, the discourse revolved around evading responsibility and attempted to reduce the crisis’s perceived offensiveness, relying mainly on bolstering and defeasibility. The second phase appeared to emerge gradually, using corrective actions in order to restore Egypt’s image as a ‘safe’ tourist destination.

The purpose of this study is to know the implementation of Tartil Method in order to increase the ability of the students of IAIN Raden Intan Lampung in reciting al-Qur’an. This study used two phase of explanatory mixed methods designs. The first phase was quantitative approach using true experiment by having pretest-postest control group design for 66 students who have low ability in reciting al-Qur’an. The second phase was qualitative approach using multi-case single-site case study design involving 9 students who were trained by using Tartil method. The data of the first phase were collected by testing the students to recite al-Qur’an and then the scores were analyzed by using Statistical Package For Social Science [SPSS] Windows 18.0. In the second phase, the data were collected by using in depth-interview and the data from interview were described thematically with Nvivo 8. From the first phase, it was found that there was an increasing ability of reciting al-Qur’an after the implementation of Tartil method. From the second phase, it was found that the reasons why the students could recite Al-Qur’an faster were: [i] the method was easier to follow, [ii] the method was interesting because there were some specific color used to in the material given, [iii] the reciting al-Qur’an was directly applied with the muratal system, [iv] the tajwid was applied in order to make the reciting perfect. The implication of this study was discussed with any theories, concepts and relevance studies.

Abstract. We investigate the decay of planetary boundary layer (PBL) turbulence in the afternoon, from the time the surface buoyancy flux starts to decrease until sunset. Dense observations of mean and turbulent parameters were acquired during the Boundary Layer Late Afternoon and Sunset Turbulence (BLLAST) field experiment by several meteorological surface stations, sounding balloons, radars, lidars, and two aircraft flying extensively during the afternoon transition. We analyzed a case study based on some of those observations and Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) data focusing on the turbulent vertical structure throughout the afternoon transition. The decay of turbulence is quantified through the temporal and vertical evolution of (1) the turbulence kinetic energy (TKE), (2) the characteristic length scales of turbulence, (3) the shape of the turbulence spectra. A spectral analysis of LES data, airborne and surface measurements is performed in order to (1) characterize the variation of the turbulent decay with height and (2) study the distribution of turbulence over eddy size. This study points out the LES ability to reproduce the turbulence evolution throughout the afternoon. LES and observations agree that the afternoon transition can be divided in two phases: (1) a first phase during which the TKE decays with a low rate, with no significant change in turbulence characteristics, (2) a second phase characterized by a larger TKE decay rate and a change spectral shape, implying an evolution of eddy size distribution and energy cascade from low to high wavenumber. The changes observed either on TKE decay (during the first phase) or on the vertical wind spectra shape (during the second phase of the afternoon transition) occur first in the upper region of the PBL. The higher within the PBL, the stronger the spectra shape changes.

ABSTRACT Objectives: To identify strategies that facilitate the development of leadership, correlating them with characterization of variables, and to create and validate a leadership training program for nurses. Method: developed in two phases. First: a cross-sectional study, performed in a general hospital in São Paulo, Brazil. The 70 nurses in the sample had at least three months of work experience in the institution. An instrument was used to collect data with characterization variables (gender, age, postgraduate, work shift and length of working career and contact with the theme of leadership) and collection of suggested strategies to develop more prominent leadership in the literature. Data were collected (February-April 2016) and analyzed descriptively. The Mann-Whitney and Kruskal Wallis tests were used to verify the correlations (p<0.05). Second phase: validation study of the program using the Delphi technique, from March to June 2017. Following the construction of the program, and considering the results obtained in the first phase, judges were selected with the following criteria: to be a nurse, researcher in leadership and nursing administration, with article publications in the last five years and teaching experience. Results: the strategies indicated in the first phase were: performance of experienced leaders as facilitators in the teaching-learning process (the highest scores were given by men; p=0.033) and establishment of partnerships between university and hospital (the largest choice was made by young nurses, p=0.019). In the second phase, a content validity index of 0.81 was reached, considered satisfactory. Conclusion: the program can be applied, and future studies will evaluate its effectiveness.

The prevalence of mobbing among nurses in various countries is around 17–20%. Some researchers have attempted to explain the success or failure of adaptation to the work environment and teamwork and to buffer the effects of psychological harassment in the workplace by incorporating emotional intelligence into the mobbing context. As its main objectives, this quantitative, observational, cross-sectional study analyzed the relationship between emotional intelligence and mobbing as perceived by nurses and sought to establish the mediating roles of other variables involved, such as social support and sensitivity to anxiety. The final sample consisted of 1357 Spanish, self-selected nurses aged 22–58 from multiple healthcare institutions. The questionnaires (Perceived Psychological Harassment Questionnaire, The Brief Emotional Intelligence Inventory, Brief Perceived Social Support Questionnaire, Anxiety Sensitivity Index-3) were implemented on a web platform, which enabled the participants to complete them online. Descriptive analyses and mediation models were estimated. Personal characteristics related to high sensitivity to anxiety and low emotional intelligence implied greater presence of mobbing at work. This mobbing may be buffered if the person perceives enough support from family, friends or significant others. Our results recommend reinforcing the social support network of nursing personnel to improve the work climate and training them in emotional intelligence in university and on-the-job programs.
