The purpose of the research article is to explore the connection between Sri Aurobindo’s educational philosophy and the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. The article seeks to examine how Aurobindo’s philosophy, which encompasses integral education, self-discovery, harmonious individual-society relationship, recognition of the multidimensional nature of human beings, and the role of spirituality, can enrich the implementation and understanding of the NEP 2020. The significance of exploring this connection lies in the potential for enhancing the transformative impact of the NEP 2020 on the education system. Aurobindo’s philosophy promotes a holistic approach to education, emphasizing the integration of various dimensions of human existence, such as physical, vital, mental, and spiritual. By integrating these principles into the implementation of the NEP 2020, there is an opportunity to foster a more comprehensive and transformative education system.

Purpose: This paper is about how emotional marketing affects consumer behavior and how emotions will affect the decision-making process of the consumers. Methodology: To know the mindset of the consumers about their response to different kinds of emotions, 150 samples were collected randomly using a questionnaire. The questions included how emotions affect them in various situations, which type of emotions they often feel, and how they felt after purchasing. Findings: According to the estimated results it was found that emotions will play a major role in consumer behavior and it also depends on their current mood and past experiences. Limitations: Though it was proved that emotions will affect consumer behavior, it was completely subjective in nature as every individual has variety of emotions based on their experiences in life and it is practically not possible to satisfy every customer’s emotional need. Future research: Future research can focus on various emotions and the behavioral aspects that can have an impact and a cross-sectional study can be conducted. Rather than depending on the consumer mindset at the time of buying, it would be the best option to influence consumer’s emotions using advertisements and brand image.

Our study delves into the intricate relationship between career expectations and the satisfaction levels of employees who undergo training in winter hotels. We highlight the profound influence of career growth and professional accomplishments on shaping career expectations. More importantly, these factors significantly boost career satisfaction. The cornerstone of our research reveals that by elevating career competencies, undergoing training in tourism acts as a pivotal turning point in one’s career trajectory. Furthermore, service organizations within the tourism industry possess the strategic capability to orchestrate work and developmental initiatives. This not only widens the realm of professional achievements but also ensures career contentment. What makes our study particularly groundbreaking is its emphasis on the intermediary role played by tourism education—a perspective that hasn’t been explored previously. We have exclusively focused on hotels situated in the tourist hubs of Erzurum and Palandöken, which offers a nuanced understanding of this segment of the industry.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the condition of the Women-owned micro and small-scale enterprises, their performances and the challenges faced by the women owner in the Indian context. The condition of the overall Women-owned micro and small-scale enterprise has portrayed by the simple table and diagram. In addition, we have used a simple multivariate regression model to understand the performance difference of these enterprises across Sector using the NSSO 73rd round microdata. The study finds that the proportion of women-owned enterprises are significantly low. Interestingly, in both the sectors (i.e. Rural & Urban), Women-owned Enterprises are mostly operated as Own-account segment (OAE) within the household premises. The Rural Sector is much isolated in terms of the enterprise’s performance. Some major problems like Demand shortage, non-recovery of financial dues, Non-availability of Credit, shortage of Raw materials etc. are facing by the Women owners during their operation.

This study uses panel data (2011-12, 2013-14, 2015-16) from three sources—the US Department of Education Office for Civil Rights (OCR), the National Center for Education Statistics’ Common Core Data (CCD), and the Ohio Department of Education (ODE) school report cards. These data were then merged using a common key to create one large dataset. OCR and CCD data have a common school identification key that was readily available. Data from ODE contained Building and District identification numbers that were concatenated to create a school ID that was identical to the one in the other two datasets.

Burnout syndrome is considered a chronic response to occupational stressors present in the work environment. Social interactions can constitute one of the stressors at work that generate negative feelings that can trigger a process of contagion of the syndrome among workers in interdependent relationships. The study aimed to analyze whether emotional labor (emotional demands, emotional dissonance) at the level of the leader and subordinate dyad operates together in the manifestation of burnout syndrome. The participants were 244 leader-subordinate dyads who answered a questionnaire with sociodemographic and labor data, the Spanish Burnout Inventory, a subscale of the Questionnaire on the Experience and Assessment of Work, and a subscale of the Frankfurt Emotion Work. Analyses were performed using the actor-partner interdependence model (APIM) through path analysis. The results indicate that the emotional demands of the leaders and the emotional dissonance of the subordinates predict the leader’s burnout syndrome. The Burnout syndrome of subordinates was predicted only by the emotional demands of subordinates. Organizational actions are necessary for the better functioning of this dyad, aiming to mitigate the negative consequences of emotional labor for the worker’s mental health.

The data used is from a face-to-face survey (N=388) we conducted in January 2019, in the Beni-Makada district of Tangier, Morocco. The neighborhood is one of the most disadvantaged (World Bank. 2012), with the smallest per-capita green space of 0.27m2 in the city (OPEMH, Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung foundation, 2016). The district is famous for the abundance of street potted gardens, widely mediatized during the 22nd conference of parties (COP22) organized in 2016 in Morocco. It houses more than 40% of Tangier’s population, mostly middle-low to low-income, living in individual houses (Modern Moroccan houses) built directly to the property line, 65% of urban families in Morocco live in the same housing type (RGPH 2014). All SPGs observed in the study area were present in the public domain, the vast majority were back to back with owners’ houses, except for two narrow streets where SPGs were at the center to barre access to cars. The questionnaire was tested and verified with focus groups in Arabic before being conducted in Morocco. The final version was composed of four parts and 36 questions. Part one inquired about PSGs size, age, maintenance, in addition to recreational activities done next to it. Part two had eighteen questions measuring neighborhood satisfaction, cleanliness, safety, noise annoyance social capital, neighborhood life quality, and belonging pride perception. In part three, we measured depression levels using the Arabic version of the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9). And in part four, we had demographic questions. The obtained data were analyzed using SPSS 25.

Interviews were conducted on 10 migrant women living in Seoul and surrounding areas to observe the working lives of migrant women in Korea.  Their average age was 31 years (SD = 3.18 years) and their stay in Korea was 5.8 years (SD = 1.23 years), of which two of them acquired Korean citizenship. Their average monthly salary was 2.33 million won (SD=55.40). Participants were recruited through a snowball sampling method that introduced participants through acquaintances. Data collection was conducted through one-on-one in-depth interviews consisting of semi-structured questions. The main question was (1) “What cultural differences do you experience between immigrants and Koreans in your daily life?” (2) “How do you deal with those problems and what are your plans for the future?” Before the interview began, you explained the purpose of the study, confidentiality, and agreed to participate. Interviews for data collection were conducted for eight months from April 2021 to December 2021, and interviews consisting of three types of questions were conducted for each participant. The interview time was not limited, allowing participants to fully discuss their personal experiences at work, and each interview took about 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on the participant. All interviews were recorded after being recorded, with each participant’s volume reaching approximately 5 to 8 sheets of A4 paper.

The estimation of RxC ecological inference contingency tables from aggregate data defines one of the most salient and challenging problems in the field of quantitative social sciences. From the mathematical programming framework, this paper suggests a new direction for tackling this problem. For the first time in the literature, a procedure based on linear programming is proposed to attain estimates of local contingency tables. Based on this and the homogeneity hypothesis, we suggest two new ecological inference algorithms. These two new algorithms represent an important step forward in the ecological inference mathematical programming literature. In addition to generating estimates for local ecological inference contingency tables and amending the tendency to produce extreme transfer probability estimates previously observed in other mathematical programming procedures, they prove to be quite competitive and more accurate than the current linear programming baseline algorithm. The new algorithms place the linear programming approach once again in a prominent position in the ecological inference toolkit. We use a unique dataset with almost 500 elections, where the real transfer matrices are known, to assess their accuracy. Interested readers can easily use these new algorithms with the aid of the R package lphom.

This paper critically examines the nexus between the scientific method and the study of race in the contemporary world. It begins by historicizing the emergence of the scientific method as indispensable to the advent of European modernity. The development of modernity collapsed into the racialization of black subjects as subhuman and criminal. This criminalization of blackness occurs at two critical junctures: the arrest of blacks via plantation enslavement and the concomitant imprisoning of black bodies of thought. The consequence of modernity’s carceral methods implicates the study of race, particularly the formation of Black Studies, by criminalizing black reason. As such, the paper contends for an Afromodern scientific revolution, understood as the emancipation of method and the decarceralizing of science in order to procure black liberation in the modern world.
