This study explores the theoretical and practical integration of the Panchakosha framework—an ancient Indian philosophical model of human consciousness—with contemporary emotional intelligence theories in educational contexts. Drawing from both Eastern epistemological traditions and Western psychological paradigms, this research proposes that the five-layered Panchakosha model offers a more comprehensive approach to socio-emotional learning (SEL) than conventional Western frameworks, particularly for students in cultural contexts aligned with Eastern philosophical traditions. Through theoretical analysis and comparative framework construction, this paper establishes correlations between specific koshas (layers of existence) and dimensions of emotional intelligence, while proposing methodological approaches for empirical validation. The findings suggest that the Panchakosha framework’s holistic integration of physical, energetic, mental-emotional, wisdom-based, and transcendental dimensions provides unique advantages in developing sustainable emotional regulation, cultural congruence, and multidimensional self-awareness in educational settings.
Maternal mortality remains a major issue affecting women of reproductive age across Nigeria. The World Health Organization (WHO) reported that 1047 women died per 100,000 due to pregnancy and childbirth complications in Nigeria. From the foregoing, Nigeria contributes to about 19% of global maternal death, still births and neonatal deaths. Hence, Nigeria is ranked the third nation with high maternal and child death with South Sudan and Chad taking the lead respectively. There are however variations in the levels of maternal mortality in the Northern and Southern Nigeria. Maternal mortality is more pronounced in the North than the Southern part of Nigeria. In the south western part of Nigeria, Ondo state had the worst maternal and child care indices in 2008. The Ondo state government put a lot of efforts towards reducing maternal mortality in the state. These efforts include the launching of the safe motherhood (abiye) project in 2009. Despite the efforts geared towards the reduction of maternal mortality in Ondo state, the maternal mortality ratio still remains abysmally high. Hence, this study develops a system for remotely monitoring the health of pregnant women in the state. The system was tested using sixty pregnant women in fourteen Local Government Areas of Ondo state, Nigeria, with accuracy, precision and recall as the performance metrics. The system recorded an accuracy of 95.24%, a precicion of 96.67% and a recall of 98.31%.
The conclusions of studies on the incorporation of maggot meal in fish feed and its impact on zootechnical parameters are controversial due to the protein content of maggots varying from one author to another. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of maggot protein in the feed on the growth performance of tilapia Oreochromis niloticus fry at the juvenile stage during 75 days of rearing. The study involved the incorporation of maggot protein at different rate into the diet of 0.8 ± 0.1 g Nile tilapia reared in a concrete tank. Three diets (D20, D30 and D40) with maggot protein contents of 20, 30 and 40% respectively, competing with a local industrial reference feed (RD) ALIMPOI, were randomly applied in duplicate to the fish. The initial rationing rate applied was 20% the first month, 15% the second month and 10% the third month. The survival rates (Ts) were 99.89 ± 0.9, 98.96 ± 0.65, 99.59 ± 0.41 and 99.91 ± 0.7% respectively for RD, D20, D30 and D40 diet. The results obtained show that the best growth and feed efficiency performances were obtained with the RD (45.80g) and D40 (44.32g) diets. Maggot protein incorporated at 40% in Nile tilapia feed improves its growth performance (45.80 ± 8.93, 24.73 ± 5.37, 24.75 ± 4.66 and 44.32 ± 7.97 g, respectively for RD, D20, D30 and D40 diets). The use of feed containing maggot meal generated respective production cost reduction rates of 47.53, 53.65 and 64.67% for D20, D30 and D40 compared to the reference feed.
This article examines the circulation of Palestinian symbols between genuine political engagement and performative commodification, drawing on the theoretical frameworks of Veblen, Illouz, Debord, and Baudrillard. In Tunisia, these symbols function as markers of memory, solidarity, and resistance, yet they are also vulnerable to political neutralization when integrated into commercial logics or transformed into objects of conspicuous consumption. The study shows, however, that ethical practices — transparency, redistribution of profits, and respect for symbolic integrity — can reconfigure activist marketing as a tool of real support rather than a form of moral spectacle. It also highlights the central role of digital platforms in amplifying mobilization, provided that superficial performativity is contained. The article concludes by calling for a rethinking of activist consumption as a concrete lever for justice and collective action, rather than a display of virtue.
In this study entitled « representation of the teaching profession: a carrier or a springboard » ?, I wanted to know the impression that students of Institut Supérieur Pédagogique de Bukavu have about that profession. In addition, I wanted also to understand the real motivations that would push them to choose the teaching career and see if they are ready to remain in that profession as long as possible. I have selected these students because they are being trained to become teachers. Following the poor conditions of teachers in the Congolese context (D.R.Congo), it is necessary to understand that representation. Only students finalizing the 1st and the 2nd cycle of their college training have been selected in the sample.
After analyzing the data collected through a questionnaire, I found that the teaching profession is very interesting even more interesting for those students. However, in comparison with others free professions (medical, judicial, commerce, etc.), the teaching profession loses its position because of the small advantages that it brings. This is the reason why these students would not like to stay in that profession for a long time. The teaching profession is considered as transitory before moving on to more promising horizons for a better future. This is what has pushed me to affirm that it is the extrinsic motivation which is the basis of students’ aspiration to become teachers.
The aim of this study was to examine some biological aspects of Epiplatys chaperi sheljuzhkoi, in a habitat under the influence of urban wastewater in order to gather scientific information needed for better management and conservation of this resource. Four data collection campaigns, one per season, were carried out from January 2016 to December 2016. The standard length and mass of each specimen were taken. The length-mass relationship and the condition factor were analysed. The one-factor Student’s t test was used to check the significance of the difference between the theoretical and observed values of the allometry coefficient b. An analysis of the condition factor was performed. The size structure shows that individuals between 15 mm and 20 mm in standard length dominate the E. chaperi sheljuzhkoi population. The value of the allometric coefficient b (2.91) is lower than the theoretical value 3 (Student’s t-test, p ˂ 0.05). This indicates a negative allometric growth of E. chaperi sheljuzhkoi. The long dry season recorded the lowest average condition factor (Kc) (1.56 ± 0.61%). The highest value was recorded during the long rainy season (2.38 ± 0.27 %). The allometry coefficient shows that Epiplatys chaperi sheljuzhkoi develops more than in the river. These data form a necessary basis for the proper management and conservation of this aquatic ecosystem.
This study focuses on vegetable consumption among households in the Pont Wamba neighborhood of Kenge, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. In a global context where fruit and vegetable intake remains insufficient, Sub-Saharan Africa displays particularly low levels. Yet, vegetables are essential to a balanced diet and are vital for local populations. The main objective of this research is to assess vegetable consumption in Pont Wamba by analyzing eating habits, the factors influencing consumption, and the actual level of intake. The methodology is based on quantitative, comparative, and analytical approaches, supported by surveys, interviews, and field observations. The findings reveal that 100% of surveyed households consume vegetables daily, primarily due to their affordability and local availability. The study recommends enhancing awareness campaigns, supporting local production, and involving authorities to ensure food security.
This paper deals with the Diophantine equation axy+bx+cy=d (and bc are coprime). It revisits the old methods of solving this equation. It establishes a link between this solution and the characterization of the elements of the arithmetic progression ax+b (and b are coprime). It provides a new method for solving this equation. It leads to two primality criteria and a commutative diagram characterizing odd natural numbers.
This article examines how managerial contradictions shape employees’ perceptions of recognition within a Tunisian small and medium-sized enterprise operating in the agri-food sector. Although the company promotes a discourse centered on autonomy, responsibility, and employee participation, actual managerial practices remain governed by a rigid hierarchical structure and strong centralized control. This inconsistency generates confusion, weakens trust, and undermines authentic recognition at work. The purpose of this study is to explore how discrepancies between managerial discourse and daily practices influence employee motivation, engagement, and perceived value.
The research is based on a qualitative approach, involving forty semi-structured interviews conducted with employees from different hierarchical levels. The thematic analysis reveals three main findings: (1) a persistent gap between the managerial intentions communicated by the leadership and the organizational routines that prevail, (2) a significant deficit of recognition resulting from structural rigidity and the absence of sincere and constructive feedback, and (3) adaptive strategies developed by employees to cope with managerial ambiguity while maintaining a minimal form of engagement.
The study concludes that recognition can only be effective when embedded in a coherent managerial system where discourse and practices are aligned. The article highlights the crucial role of managerial consistency as a determinant of sustainable employee engagement in Tunisian organizations.
This study provides a critical synthesis of academic and institutional research on how football clubs contribute to local socio-economic development. It aims to clarify the mechanisms and limits of these contributions by combining economic, social, and urban perspectives within a territorial governance framework. Using a systematic literature review based on the PRISMA protocol, 28 peer-reviewed and institutional sources published between 2000 and 2025 were analyzed. The evaluation grid was adapted from CASP and AMSTAR-2 to assess theoretical clarity, methodological rigor, and territorial transferability. The studies were then compared through thematic content analysis focusing on economic, social, and urban outcomes. Three key dimensions emerge: (1) Economic: football clubs stimulate local employment, investment, and urban attractiveness, but these effects remain localized and sometimes overestimated; (2) Social: clubs act as community hubs that foster cohesion, identity, and informal education, particularly in African and European contexts; (3) Urban: stadium projects and related infrastructures contribute to urban regeneration but can also reinforce spatial inequalities and gentrification when not supported by inclusive policies. The results highlight that clubs function less as autonomous economic engines than as catalysts embedded in multi-level governance systems. Effective cooperation between clubs, local authorities, and private stakeholders is essential for sustainable territorial outcomes. The article proposes an integrated conceptual model linking economic, social, and urban dynamics through territorial governance, thus advancing the theoretical understanding of sport as a lever for place-based development.
