For the study's qualitative data, analysis was done using the content analysis method based on the study objectives. It was found that males are more likely to make decisions that influence the continued practice of Female Genital Mutilation in the Attah community than females. The study also found that cultural expectations for womanhood rite of passage, marriage prospects, and the belief that women with FGM are more likely to be less promiscuous are major factors that influence the continued practice of FGM in the Attah community.

Abstract

Grade inflation in Philippine higher education is a growing concern, with instructors increasingly assigning higher grades to students. This paper investigates instructor-driven causes behind grade inflation and its impacts. Autoethnography was used as a method. The study locale was public state universities and colleges in Taguig City and Muntinlupa City, Philippines; data collection involved immersion, a personal diary, and informal discussions with faculty and students. Thematic analysis, guided by research inquiries, unveiled the factors driving this trend. Results suggest compassionate grading, influenced by a desire to support students facing challenges, fosters inflated success perceptions. Laziness, apathy, and sycophancy also contribute to lax grading, hindering genuine academic growth. Meanwhile, the impacts extend beyond academia, affecting graduates' skill acquisition and potentially dissatisfying employers. Recommendations advocate for enhanced accountability among instructors through rigorous evaluation systems and continuous professional development to safeguard academic standards. Combating grade inflation necessitates collaborative efforts to uphold education quality and integrity, benefiting students, institutions, and society.

Abstract

Parenting styles are an essential factor in how parents raise their children. More literature is needed about the role of parenting styles on parental financial socialization. How parents manage their finances is essential as children observe and imitate their parents' behavior. This study investigated the relationship between parenting styles and parental financial behavior. Parenting style was measured through authoritarian, neglectful, authoritative, and permissive. This study adopted a quantitative research approach and used a self-administered questionnaire to collect data from young adults in two provinces (Gauteng and Mpumalanga) in South Africa. Correlation analysis was used to analyze data. The results showed a significant positive relationship between authoritarian, neglectful, authoritative, and permissive parenting styles and parental financial behavior. Thus, it is concluded that a significant positive relationship exists between parenting styles and parental financial behavior. The study implies that parents should invest more time in understanding and evaluating their parenting styles and adopt authoritarian, authoritative, and permissive parenting styles as they were found to support and foster financial socialization. Financial educators and the government must design and implement financial programs to inform parents of different parenting styles. This study contributes to the existing body of knowledge by empirically testing the relationship between parenting styles and parental financial behavior.

The diffusion of innovation theory guided this study to answer the studied objectives. There needs to be more studies that assess the factors influencing the adoption of the diffusion of social media innovations in the Tanzanian context, which are guided by the diffusion of innovation theory, particularly on the relative advantage, compatibility, and trialability. A survey strategy was utilized in data collection by administering the questionnaires. A sample of 90 respondents was drawn from the study population. Quantitative data was analyzed based on descriptive statistical analysis and multiple linear regression Analysis. The variables under the study were Relative advantage, compatibility, and trialability. In contrast, the dependent variable was the adoption of the diffusion of Instagram social media innovations among selected football clubs in Tanzania. The findings showed that Relative advantage and compatibility affect the adoption of the diffusion of Instagram social media innovations among selected football clubs in Tanzania, while trialability has no effect. This study has unveiled the knowledge contribution by validating the Diffusion of Innovation Theory (DOI), specifically on the Instagram social media platform, by suggesting the relationship between variables under the study by approving or disapproving the theory. The findings will have practical implications that can be applied in real-world contexts to technology adoption.
