Body language and facial expressions are powerful indicators of a person's emotions, intentions, and thoughts. However, their meanings can vary widely across cultures. Misinterpretation can lead to misunderstandings, especially in international business, negotiations, or personal interactions. This guide will help you decode human behavior while considering cultural differences. 1. Facial Expressions: The Universal and the Cultural Nuances Facial expressions are often universal but can still have different interpretations depending on cultural context. A. Microexpressions (Universal but Context-Dependent) Microexpressions are involuntary facial expressions that last less than a second and reveal a person's true emotions.

This study aims to explore the concept of tarbiyah in the Qur'an through a qualitative approach and text analysis of relevant verses. Tarbiyah, which is rooted in the nature of Allah as Ar-Rabb, includes a holistic educational process including creed, worship, morals, and purification of the soul (tazkiyatun nafs). The results show that tarbiyah functions as an effort to develop humans to become individuals who have faith, piety, and noble character, with a gradual approach as seen in the method of revelation. The interpretation of verses such as Surah Al-Fatihah verse 2, Surah Ash-Shams verses 9-10, and Surah Luqman verses 13-19 shows that tarbiyah aims to shape human character and spirituality. In addition, this concept is very relevant in the context of contemporary Islamic education, especially in building an education system that integrates spiritual and intellectual values. By referring to various classical and modern interpretations, this study illustrates that tarbiyah is not only a formal education process, but also a comprehensive guidance oriented towards divine values. The findings underscore the importance of applying tarbiyah in shaping a generation of Muslims who excel intellectually, morally, and spiritually.

From time immemorial, not only gender inequality, students' academic performance, their effectiveness and quality, but also the capacity of the institutions which hold sway over these students, are at the center of discourse among scholars of social sciences. In fact, gender imbalance as regards students' academic performance is found to be prevalent in most Nigerian tertiary institutions. Some female students hardly attend lectures but are later discovered to have higher grades far above their male counterpart. The allegation is that some weak lecturers are in habit of demanding for sex from female students in exchange for grades. This is an indication that Nigeria educational system, physically and psychologically need help. However, the objective of this study is to identify how studentslecturers relationship influences their academic performance. It also, states the causes and consequence on Nigeria's educational system. The study used the academic records of graduated students from 2017-2021 as a base for analysis. Mary Wollstonecraft's feminist theory is used as theoretical explanations for the study. The study concluded that gender inequality regarding students' academic performance, via student-lecturer relationship, is evident in most Nigerian institution; the study also proffers recommendations to relevant agencies in educational sector, such as Ministry of Education, Nigeria University Commission, the Regulating Board of Polytechnics and Colleges of Educations.

The presence and capabilities of religious groups in Turkey, particularly in terms of their propaganda power, is an undeniable reality. These groups have a well-established institutional infrastructure in magazine publishing, and the magazine industry has successfully transitioned into the digital realm. However, there is a lack of sufficient studies in the literature concerning the role of Islamist magazines in Turkey in addressing Islamophobia on a global scale. Religious groups in Turkey have historically and culturally established strong ties with society, particularly in utilizing magazines as a tool for propaganda. In this context, the study examines the theme of Islamophobia, which has become increasingly widespread globally, especially in Europe and the United States, in the magazines published by religious groups in Turkey. Using a qualitative methodology, the article analyzes the publications of the five major religious groups in Turkey, focusing on the concept of Islamophobia. The data collected has been examined through semiotic analysis and content analysis techniques. The findings of the study reveal that religious groups exhibit shortcomings in publishing articles that generate counterarguments to Islamophobia and in utilizing global language in their magazine publications. It is believed that this study will contribute to future research on the relationship between religious groups, Islamophobia, propaganda, and digital communication.

This paper explores the intricacies of domestic violence (DV) and the role of mediation as a tool for conflict resolution, emphasizing the need for a safe environment for victims during the mediation process. It begins by outlining the legal framework in South Africa, highlighting the Domestic Violence Act of 1998 and the relevance of mediation under Rule 41A. The discussion then shifts to the root causes of domestic violence, with particular attention to power imbalances, the psychological profiles of abusers, and the cyclical nature of abuse. Drawing from the theory of cyclic abuse (Walker, 1970), the paper underscores how abusers manipulate victims through phases of tension, acting out, apologies, and calm, thereby perpetuating a cycle that makes it difficult for victims to break free. The paper addresses the challenges of mediation in domestic violence cases, particularly the power dynamics and the potential for manipulation by the abuser. Specific mediation approaches, including evaluative, facilitative, transformative, and narrative mediation, are discussed with a focus on how each approach can aid in empowering the victim and ensuring their safety. The importance of pre-mediation screening and a trauma-informed approach is highlighted as essential steps in ensuring a fair and balanced process. Finally, the paper recommends the use of shuttle mediation, the inclusion of advocates or support persons, and ongoing safety planning to protect the victim from further harm.

Background COVID-19 has inundated the entire world disrupting the lives of millions of people. The pandemic has stressed the healthcare system of India impacting the psychological status and functioning of health care workers. The aim of this study is to determine the burnout levels and factors associated with the risk of psychological distress among healthcare workers (HCW) engaged in the management of COVID 19 in India. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted from 1 September 2020 to 30 November 2020 by telephonic interviews using a web-based Google form. Health facilities and community centres from 12 cities located in 10 states were selected for data collection.

This study was conducted to examine how various task types affect the extent to which learners engage in form-related changes(FRC) and meaningrelated changes(MRC).To this end,15 Iranian language learners (9 female and 6 male) participated in instruction sessions in which they learned how to self-correct and peer-correct three writing tasks ,namely ; argumentative, informative , and analytical. Etherpad package was used to facilitate the communication among the learners as they shared their responses and feedback on each other's writings. Data analysis indicated more instances of peer-correction (54%) compared to those of self-correction (46%) in the three task types. The results of a Chi-square analysis illustrated that the difference in the instances of corrections produced was statistically significant (X2=10.890, p=0.00).In this regard, the results indicated that the number of corrections produced in the analytical task was higher than that of other tasks. Another Chi-square test (Chi-Sq = 6.754, DF = 2, P-Value = 0.034) proved that the participants in all task types made statistically significant changes in meaning-related aspects compared to the changes they made to the formal ones in their written products. A t-test analysis revealed that learners' focus between form and structure was not significantly different whether they worked individually or collaboratively. (Pvalue = 0.3 for argumentative task, P-value = 0.26 for analytical task). However the analysis showed that the emphasis of accuracy and meanings (pvalue =0.031 for argumentative task, P-value = 0.033) increased when they worked in groups. The findings of an interview revealed that most of the interviewees agreed that the writing and editing in collaboration with peers were a positive and useful experience.

Kendini yetiştirme meselesi Müslim için önemlidir ve farklı gündemler arasında değişmez gündemlerden biridir. Zira kulluğun hakikati, kendini yetiştirmeyi gerekli kılmaktadır. Şöyle ki; "Yalnızca sana ibadet eder ve yalnızca senden yardım dileriz." (bk. 1/Fâtiha, 5) ayetinde özetlenen kulluk, içerisinde farklı menziller ve yüksek dereceler bulunan yorucu bir yürüyüştür:

"Her biri için yaptıklarına karşılık (elde ettikleri) dereceler vardır. Rabbin, onların yapmakta olduklarından gafil değildir." (6/En’âm, 132)

"Ey insan! Hiç şüphesiz sen, Rabbinin (rızası için) sürekli çabalayacaksın ve sonunda O'nunla karşılaşacaksın." (84/İnşikâk, 6)

"O, göklerin/yüksek derecelerin sahibi Allah'tandır. Melekler ve Ruh, süresi elli bin yıl olan bir günde (Allah'a) çıkar/yükselir." (70/Meâric, 3-4)

Ebû Hureyre'den (ra) rivayet edildiğine göre Allah Resûlü (sav) şöyle buyurmuştur:

"Cennette Allah'ın cihad edenler için hazırladığı yüz derece vardır. Her iki derece arasında da gökler ve yer kadar mesafe vardır." (Buhari, 2790)

Kulluk yürüyüşü, bir yükseliştir. Bu yürüyüş ve yükselişte insan ya ilerliyor ya da geriliyordur, yerinde saymak söz konusu değildir:

"Sizden öne geçmek ve geride kalmak isteyenler için." (74/Müddessir, 37)

İnsan eksikliğiyle malumdur. Attığı adımlarda, tuttuğu işlerde, söylediği
sözlerde noksanlık bulunması fıtrattandandır. İnsanın, bu düzelmesi elzem
eksikliklerini tamamlaması ve cemiyet içerisinde bir misyon edinerek milletine
faydalı işler içerisinde bulunması da mühimdir. Bir yolculuk misâli, insanlar, hayatı
boyunca başından çeşit çeşit olaylar geçmesi ile tecrübeye kavuşurlar. Bu tecrübeler
ile, insan, noksanlıklarını açılmamak üzere kapatmaya muktedir olur. Tecrübe
edinmenin cümlelere sığmayacak kadar yolları mevcuttur fakat çocukluktan yaşlılığa
peşimizde olan bir fiil var ki; tecrübeleri öğrenmenin yegâne vasıtasıdır: Okumak.

Introduction
Technologies provide a brilliant opportunity to promote social-emotional competences, wellbeing
and adjustment in adolescence. Game-based programmes and serious games are
digital tools that pursue an educational goal in an attractive environment for adolescents.
The purpose of this study was therefore to determine the effectiveness of emoTIC, a gamebased
social-emotional programme designed according to Mayer, Caruso, and Salovey’s
model of emotional intelligence.
Materials and methods
The participants were 119 adolescents between 11 and 15 years, randomly assigned to the
experimental group and the control group. The adolescents completed questionnaires to
assess their emotional intelligence, self-esteem, affect balance, difficulties, prosocial behaviour,
depression, anxiety and stress.
Results
The MANCOVA results showed that adolescents who completed the game-based programme
had improved self-esteem, affect balance, emotional symptoms, behavioural problems,
and hyperactivity (Wilks’ ? = .77; F = 2.10; p = .035). Hierarchical multiple regression
indicated that adolescents in the experimental group had a greater change in self-esteem
and affect balance (positive ß), while their emotional problems and hyperactivity decreased
(negative ß). Anxiety moderated the influence of the intervention on self-esteem (b = .04; t =
-2.55; p ? .05; LLCI = -0.43, ULCI = -0.05). Adolescents with low or medium anxiety
improved their self-esteem with the intervention, while those with high anxiety did not
develop it.
Conclusions
The use of technology in social-emotional programmes could be the first step in increasing
adolescents’ interest in emotions and emoTIC could be considered a useful programme
which influences their personal, emotional and social factors.

Bulgar edebiyat kuramcısı ve Rus Biçimciliğinin en önemli yayıcılarından biri. Sofya'da doğan Todorov, lisans eğitimini burada tamamladıktan sonra Julia Kristeva gibi lisansüstü çalışmalar yapmak üzere Paris'e taşındı. Sorbonne'da başlangıçta soğuk karşılanmasına ve kendisine edebiyat teorisinin yapılamayacağının söylenmesine rağmen sebat etti ve sonunda Roland Barthes ile tanıştı ve onda anlayışlı bir hoca buldu. Doktorasını 1966'da École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales'de Barthes'ın yanında tamamladı. Todorov'un ilk çalışmalarındaki temel ilgisi, anlatının biçimsel özellikleri (çalışmaları bu bakımdan Genette ve Greimas'ınkilerle uyumludur), özellikle de sözdizimi ya da birleştirme kurallarıydı. Önermeler ve diziler arasında ayrım yaparak, her önerme için (bir fail tarafından gerçekleştirilen bir eylem, örneğin kahramanın bir arayışa çıkması) gerçekleşebilecek sınırlı sayıda şey olduğunu göstermiştir (kahraman başarılı olur ya da olmaz). Bu önermeler, artık çoğu yaratıcı yazarlık okulunda öğretildiği üzere, tüm anlatıların temel yapı taşlarıdır. Todorov, tekinsiz edebiyat üzerine yazdığı kitabı Translated as The Fantastic'te bu içgörüyü büyük bir etkiyle kullanmıştır: A Structural Approach to a Literary Genre (1973) adlı kitabında büyük bir etki yarattı ve bu kitap halen tür çalışmalarında standart bir referans noktası olarak kullanılmaktadır. Meslektaşı Genette'in aksine, Todorov'un çalışmaları yapısalcı başlangıçlarının ötesine geçerek ilerlemeye ve gelişmeye devam etti ve tekinsiz edebiyatın amacı dışındaki konularla da ilgilendi.

Batı ile karşılaşmalarında eski dönemlerde üstün konumda olan İslam, modern dünyada üstünlüğün Batı'ya geçmesiyle siyasi, ekonomik ve kültürel olarak bir "öteki" konumuna düşürülmüştür. Orta Çağlardan beri gelen önyargılar günümüzde tahakkümün de el değiştirmesiyle artık fiili bir ayrımcılığa evrilmiştir. Kitle iletişim araçlarında meydana gelen teknolojik ilerleme sayesinde eskiden uzun zaman alacak önyargıların yaygınlaşması ve hatta değişik araçların bombardımanıyla kabul edilip içselleştirilmesi bir hayli kolaylaşmıştır. Çoğu zaman kulaktan dolma yanlış bilgilendirme sebebiyle İslam ve Müslüman karşıtlığı her geçen gün artmakta ve Batılı güçlerin özellikle Orta Doğu'ya yönelik dış politikalarını da meşrulaştırma görevini üstlenmektedir. Medya ve sinema filmlerinin etkisiyle oluşan ortamda ırkçılığın yeni tezahürleri ortaya çıkarak toplumsal ve küresel bir probleme yol açmaktadır. Batı, ülke dışındaki menfaatlerini koruma adına İslamofobiyi derinleştirmekte; ama bu sefer de toplumlar arası ilişkilere zarar vermektedir.

This scholarly inquiry undertakes an exploration of the paradigm of ‘Adult Play Equity’, challenging prevailing notions that restrict play to the domain of childhood. Through an analysis of its definition, importance, and inherent characteristics, the paper illuminates the profound advantages that play confers upon adults, spanning realms such as mental health, physical vigor, and social-emotional development. The investigation extends across varied dimensions, from individual wellness to the broader arenas of society and urban landscapes, offering nuanced perspectives on the promotion, sustenance, and integration of ‘Play Equity’ into communal frameworks as a strategic design intervention for future cities. The paper culminates by underscoring the potential transformative impact of ‘Play Equity’ on adult lives and fervently advocating for its formal acknowledgment as an inalienable human right. Moreover, it underscores a notable gap in research concerning the significance of play in the context of adults, emphasizing the abundance of existing research in this domain specifically tailored to children. Consequently, this research study advocates for the imperative necessity of further scholarly investigations and practical design interventions aimed at fostering equitable opportunities for play for all ages.

Unless and until our society recognizes cyber bullying for what it is, the suffering of thousands of silent victims will continue." ~ Anna Maria Chavez. There had been series of research on cyber bullying which are unable to provide reliable solution to cyber bullying. In this research work, we were able to provide a permanent solution to this by developing a model capable of detecting and intercepting bullying incoming and outgoing messages with 92% accuracy. We also developed a chatbot automation messaging system to test our model leading to the development of Artificial Intelligence powered anti-cyber bullying system using machine learning algorithm of Multinomial Naïve Bayes (MNB) and optimized linear Support Vector Machine (SVM). Our model is able to detect and intercept bullying outgoing and incoming bullying messages and take immediate action.

The implementation of competency-based curriculum is a great step towards ensuring that Kenya develops future generations that are compliant with Vision 2030 goal of having skilled personnel who possess practical skills that will drive the industrialization drive in the country.  Regardless of early opposition stakeholders in education sector, this curriculum currently is under implementation after a pilot study was done in all the counties. This study sought to assess the parental involvement on competency-based curriculum implementation in selected public pre-primary schools in Likuyani sub-county, Kakamega County, Kenya. The study determined the effect of parent-teacher communication on implementation of competency-based curriculum in public pre-primary schools in Likuyani sub-county, Kakamega County. Mixed research approach, using both quantitative and qualitative data was adopted. Explanatory research design was used. Epstein’s theory of parental involvement guided the study. The target population was the 68 public pre-primary schools in Likuyani Sub-county, Kakamega County while the unit of analysis/respondents were all the 68 head teachers, 136 class teachers and 136 parents. The researcher applied stratified random sampling technique to sample participating schools. Purposive sampling was further employed to identify teachers and parents who participated in the study. Questionnaires and focus group discussion guides were used to collect data. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics which included frequencies, means and standard deviations. Inferential analysis entailed multiple regression and Pearson Product Moment Correlation analysis. Qualitative data was analyzed thematically. Qualitative analysis results revealed that parents are involved in parent-teacher communication in a bid to ensure success of competency-based curriculum implementation. It was established that improving parent-teacher communication (β4 = 0.530; p < 0.05) by 1 unit enhances implementation of competency-based curriculum by0.530 units. It was also concluded that parent-teacher communication positively and significantly affect implementation of competency-based curriculum. It is recommended that parent-teacher communication should be improved in order to enhance implementation of competency-based curriculum in public pre-primary schools in Likuyani Sub-county, Kakamega County.

Objective: Understanding the drivers of political violence is critical, given the destructive consequences it has on the fabric of society. Prior work has established the importance of situational and dispositional predictors of political violence, such as search for significance and meaning and experiencing trauma. However, these predictors do not fully account for one of its most worrisome ingredients—the tendency to feel aggrieved and to express that grievance violently. Here, we examine how trait victimhood undergirds individuals’ support for, and engagement with, political violence among Democrats and Republicans in the U.S.
Method: In Study 1 (N = 393), we examined the predictive power of trait victimhood on support for political violence. In Study 2 (N = 1,000), we tested the same model among a nationally representative sample of U.S. partisans with (self-reported) real-world participation in political violence. In Study 3 (N = 824), we experimentally examined whether inducing intergroup competitive victimhood increases support for political violence, as a function of trait victimhood.
Results: In Studies 1-2 trait victimhood strongly predicted support for political violence—an association mediated through intergroup competitive victimhood beliefs. The association between search for meaning and support for violence was also moderated by trait victimhood. In Study 3, the intergroup competitive victimhood manipulation significantly increased support for political violence only among high trait victimhood participants.
Conclusion: These results illustrate the importance of trait victimhood—a psychological mechanism that has been under-valued in this context—as a critical psychological force underlying political violence.

ÖZ: Bu çalışmada öğretmenlerin derslerinde teknoloji kullanım düzeyleri ve psikolojik sermaye düzeyleri araştırılarak aralarındaki ilişki ortaya konulmaya çalışılmıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda veri toplamak için Öğretmenlerin Teknoloji Kullanım Düzeyleri Ölçeği ile Psikolojik Sermaye Ölçeği kullanmıştır. Araştırmada Çorum İli İskilip İlçesinde 2016-2017 eğitim öğretim yılında kamuya bağlı ilkokul, ortaokul, lise ve meslek liselerinde görev yapan 164 öğretmenden veriler toplanmıştır. Elde edilen verilerin analizi neticesinde öğretmenlerin derslerinde teknoloji kullanım düzeyleri orta düzey olarak bulunurken, psikolojik sermaye düzeyleri ileri düzey olarak bulunmuştur. Öğretmenlerin teknoloji kullanım düzeyleri cinsiyet, mezuniyet (lisansyüksek lisans) durumlarına göre aralarında anlamlı bir fark göstermemiştir. Benzer şekilde öğretmenlerin psikolojik sermayeleri ile mezuniyet (lisans-yüksek lisans), cinsiyet, branş ve mesleki kıdemleri arasında anlamlı bir farka rastlanmamıştır. Araştırmada elde edilen bir diğer sonuç ise ilkokul ve kültür dersi öğretmenleri arasında teknoloji kullanım düzeylerinin ilkokul öğretmenlerinin lehine anlamlı bir farklılığa sahip olmasıdır. Öğretmenlerin psikolojik sermaye düzeyleri ile teknoloji kullanım düzeyleri arasında ise orta düzeyde ve pozitif yönlü bir ilişki olduğu tespit edilmiştir.

A mother goes several changes during the post-partum period. Looking around various clinical setups provided us with the observations that reflect lack of understanding on the holistic care concepts for mothers in order to bring a healthy experience of postpartum. We observed the practices for particular time being and looked into literature for a relevant solution in form of a model that ensures all core concepts of care with holistic system during post-partum. Our activities revolved around the perinatal health promotion model involving mothers, health care providers, fathers and other care givers. Postpartum period is an essential time in a woman's life after delivery. Nurses and Midwives have an essential role in promoting healthy practices among women for a successful post-partum. But the practice is not usually observed as it is expected. Most of the time quick and relevant physical assessments and interventions are practiced to complete documentations as a role of Nurse and Midwife. Over all holistic health promoting interventions are neither practiced nor advised in our context. The paper reflects the need of holistic health promotion during post-partum in lieu of witnessed mothers in a private secondary healthcare setup in an urban city of Pakistan.

Örneği) adlı Yüksek Lisans Tez çalışması hareket noktası alınarak, Geert Wilders'ın "Fitna" filmi ve o tarihten sonra Hollanda basını (internet üzerinden) taranarak, içerik analizi tekniği ile İslamofobi kavramı değerlendirilmektedir. İslamofobi kavram olarak ilk ortaya konulduğu tarihten günümüze çeşitli bakış açılarından farklı değerlendirmelere uğramıştır. Bu çalışmada İslamofobi kavramı Avrupa'da Müslüman göçmen toplumuna karşı ekonomik, sosyal, kültürel ve dinî nedenlerden kaynaklı İslam ve Müslüman karşıtlığı olarak kullanılmıştır. Bu bağlamda kavram bileşeni olarak kullanılan "fobi" sözcüğünün İslam ve Müslüman karşıtlığı olgusunu tam olarak yansıtmadığı ortaya konulmuştur. 2008 yılında saha çalışmasında ortaya koymuş olduğumuz İslam'a ve Müslümanlara yönelik dini kimlik eksenli saldırıların son yıllarda, çeşitli kuruluşların yayımladıkları raporlarla yıldan yıla yükseldiği görülmüştür. Wilders, bu filmde İslam ve Müslüman karşıtlığını en sert biçimde ortaya koymuş, açıkça "terör" ve "terörist" ifadelerini kullanmaktan çekinmemiştir. Filmde Batı toplumlarının tarihten gelen oryantalist imaj ve yaklaşımları ve son dönem Batı medyasında İslam'ın şiddetle ilişkilendirilmesi olgusu oldukça sık kullanılmıştır. Görüntülerde Kur'an ayetleri ve Müslüman "Bilginlerin" konuşmaları bağlam ve konjonktürden koparılarak şiddet görüntüleri eşliğinde bir "algı" inşası doğrultusunda ortaya konulmuştur. Basın yayın araçları tarandığında kullanılan dilin ötekileştirici ve nefret oluşturucu olduğu, İslam ve Müslüman kavramlarının ise haber değeri genelde şiddet ve dışlayıcı bir dile sahip olduğu görülmüştür. Elde edilen bulgular neticesinde şu sonuçlara varılmıştır: 2008 yılında gerçekleştirdiğimiz çalışmadan günümüze İslamofobik tutumların hızla yükseldiği, İslam ve Müslüman karşıtlığının politika ve etkin araçlar vasıtasıyla körüklendiği, bu tutumun da bir algı inşası ve imaj oluşturmaya dönük kontrollü bir durum olduğu düşünülmektedir.
