AbstractThe research presents a qualitative investigation of a fractional-order consumer-resource system with the hunting cooperation interaction functional and an infection developed in the resources population. The existence of the equilibria is discussed where there are many scenarios that have been distinguished as the extinction of both populations, the extinction of the infection, the persistence of the infection, and the two populations. The influence of the hunting cooperation interaction functional is also investigated where it can influence the existence of equilibria and their stability. A proper numerical scheme is used for building a proper graphical representation for the goal of confirming the theoretical results.

Consumption has lately been under the microscope facing pressure from all stakeholders as principles of sustainability have gained more popularity. In this context, a new sustainable consumer model was born, referring to major shifts in buying and consumption habits. Nevertheless, these shifts were lagging as consumers resisted change in the comfort of old habits. This comfort was shaken up by the COVID-19 outbreak that forced us to rethink every aspect of our lives. Therefore, this crisis context seems the perfect opportunity to shift towards the sustainable consumer model. People’s openness towards embracing new consumption habits was evaluated in a quantitative study where data was collected in two different moments: May 2020 and December 2020. Major results of our research show that people’s lives were dominated in 2020 by uncertainty, especially when referring to their financial situation. Further on, consumers have already started to bring major shifts in their consumption habits because of this uncertainty. Among the most important shifts, there were more prudent purchase decisions, rising interest for discounted prices, increased likelihood of buying local and enhanced preference in buy fresh products instead of processed or semi-processed ones.

AbstractThe commonly occurring metaphors and models of the doctor–patient relationship can be divided into three clusters, depending on what distribution of power they represent: in the paternalist cluster, power resides with the physician; in the consumer model, power resides with the patient; in the partnership model, power is distributed equally between doctor and patient. Often, this tripartite division is accepted as an exhaustive typology of doctor–patient relationships. The main objective of this paper is to challenge this idea by introducing a fourth possibility and distribution of power, namely, the distribution in which power resides with neither doctor nor patient. This equality in powerlessness—the hallmark of “the age of bureaucratic parsimony”—is the point of departure for a qualitatively new doctor–patient relationship, which is best described in terms of solidarity between comrades. This paper specifies the characteristics of this specific type of solidarity and illustrates it with a case study of how Swedish doctors and patients interrelate in the sickness certification practice.

In past generations, a bachelor's degree or professional training was enough to prove that an individual was qualified for a job. However, in today's workforce, professionals are continually enhancing their skills through alternate credentials. Adult student/consumers seek alternatives to traditional degrees. This chapter explores the history of adult learners and the economic environments that have shaped their purchasing decisions for continuing education and adult learners' appetites for academic micro-credentials.

This paper describes the parental involvement in Islamic Early Childhood Education (ECE) units. The subjects of this study were parents and teachers in two Radlatul Athfal (RA). Through observation, interviews, and documentation, it is found that there are three types of parental involvement in education i.e. direct involvement in RA, direct involvement outside RA, and involvement at home. Another form of involvement is involvement that is directly requested by RA and some that are voluntary. The driving force for parental involvement in general is a form of cooperation in advancing children’s education and maintaining optimal child development. Parental involvement strategies include school production, outing, and home visits. Regarding the parental involvement model, there are two models in RA Mathla'ul Anwar, namely the protective model and the consumer model. Meanwhile, in RA Islamiyah Talun there are five models, namely the protective, transmission, curriculum-enrichment, consumer, and partnership models.

The commented judgment is a fundamental source of information on the protection of consumer rights and interests from the point of view of actions taken by the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection, as well as the courts. The essence of the issued ruling focuses not only on the proper procedure implementing the assumptions of consumer protection policy, but also refers to key concepts for consumers. In particular, to the concept of an average consumer model or the public interest in the process of consumer protection. The Court of Competition and Consumer Protection, following the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection, also made significant considerations on the significance of the judgment issued as a result of the abstract control of contract templates.

The aim of the considerations is to answer the question whether the existing legal regulations correctly identify and take into account the diversity of addressees of food advertising. The authoress concludes, among other things, that the current legal regulations do not identify or sufficiently differentiate the addressees of food advertising. The notion of “final consumer” from Regulation 178/2002 allows to cover both persons buying food and persons consuming food, which is crucial in the context of food law objectives. However, the protection of the consumer by information excludes from this group those who lack a sufficient level of awareness and mental maturity. The model of an average consumer developed by the CJEU also does not support correct identification of the addressee of food advertising. Therefore, it should be postulated to "differentiate the food consumer model" by constructing a more flexible definition of the final consumer or even a definition of the addressee of food advertising.
