Bullying in Learning Institutions in Kenya: Knowledge and Interventional Measures | Chapter 4 | New Ideas Concerning Arts and Social Studies Vol. 4

 

Bullying in most learning institutions is a ‘silent epidemic’ since the victims are usually threatened not to reveal it to authorities, or they can suffer the consequences. In most cases, learners who are seen as weak in personality and from a humble background can be bullied by others in school. Previous research has shown a lack of effective interventions; hence, this Chapter fills that gap by highlighting possible interventions that can restore dignity to victims and prevent bullying in the future. This chapter, therefore, highlights possible interventions that can be provided to the victims of bullying to restore their dignity and prevent future forms of bullying in schools. This Chapter is anchored on Bronfenbrenner's Ecological System Theory, which emphasises the risks and factors associated with bullying within the school environment during childhood and adolescence stages of learners. This Chapter has significant importance to the scientific community as it addresses the issue of bullying, which is a “silent epidemic” in global educational institutions, including Kenya. The Chapter also emphasises a multifaceted approach to interventions, which are important for school administrators and policymakers to prioritise for equity and psychological satisfaction of all students.

Assessment of Safety Culture in Tertiary Institutional Chemical Analytical Laboratories in Oghara and Warri, Delta State, Nigeria| Chapter 1 | Cutting Edge Research in Biology Vol. 2

 The objective concerning this study was to assess the security culture in 20 synthetic analytical laboratories in the Nigerian Delta state towns of Oghara and Warri.  This was attained through a determination of the safety acting between tertiary instruction chemical labs and industrial laboratories, private and administration-owned laboratories, and mechanics and non-technical labs. The 5-point Likert scale inquiry and a common checklist were the research means used in this study. A t-test corresponding of private and government-owned workshops revealed that the security culture of private-owned labs, regardless of whether they were technical or higher education, was more important (P < 0.05) than that of government-owned labs. Analysis of t-test for the survey indicated no significant distinctness between tertiary instruction and industrial labs (P > 0.05), with a mean value of 3.69798 for after second education laboratories and 3.62842 for industrialized laboratories. Analysis of t-test likewise indicated P < 0.05 for technical (M = 75.00) and non-mechanics (M = 56.11) tertiary education labs. The overall mean for tertiary education synthetic analytical labs is 67.90, which is higher than the overall mean for modern chemical analysis labs, which is 54.50. It is considered that laboratories set up a administrative safety committee-surpassed internal review mechanism for occurrences and corrective conduct, and hold recurring safety conferences on the lessons that can be win from accidents. All analytical workshops should also implement a powerful and effective safety administration system.

Knots Prevent the Development of Economy: A Case Study from Vietnam | Chapter 10 | Modern Perspectives in Economics, Business and Management Vol. 7

 Despite the fact that Vietnam's GDP has increased significantly during the last ten years. However, Vietnam's economy is currently confronted with two significant obstacles, referred to as the "two knots," namely, institutional and transportation infrastructure. This research uses a quantitative method called multivariable linear regression to analyse these two knots (MLR). The study's goals are to evaluate the impact of institutions and infrastructure on economic development using a case study from Vietnam, and then to make recommendations to competent authorities for improving the situation based on the findings. The five infrastructure variables that have the most impact on the economy are road length, airport link to the rest of the world, rail length, fixed internet subscriptions, and fixed telephone subscriptions. Voice and accountability of people and government are two other institution variables. Policy implementation and policy quality Compliance with rules and laws, as well as anti-corruption efforts, have an economic impact.
