Abstract

Aim: This research aims to establish that clothing is a material cultural object with intangible heritage value because it signifies and expresses nuanced cultural values and social relationships.Method: The study employed the ethnographic approach to research. Ethnography is the practice of using art and science to describe people and their customs. Descriptive labels were coded into the data. Codes were assigned to each activity, event, and thuppottiya-wearing technique to facilitate comparison and pattern identification. Data reliability and validity were both increased by double-checking with other published literature.Findings: Two distinct kinds of thuppottiya have been identified. KariyaKorala was the name of the thuppottiya used by Diyawadana Nilame, the lay guardian of the Tooth Relic and the head of the service to the relic. While the dresses were nearly identical, there were noticeable differences in the colour, fabric, embellishments, and means they accessorized.Implications/Novel Contribution: Consumers and tourists who value collecting symbolic items have given the Thuppottiya new prominence because it is at the centre of ethnic identity. The author concludes by discussing the difficulties heritage regimes encounter in today’s cultural contexts and proposing solutions for the long-term security of the diverse cultural assets under their care.

Abstract

Aim: This paper aims to provide greater clarity between Church authorities and churchgoers by gaining profound insights into the lived experiences of one of the popular devotions in Cavite, Philippines.Method: This research uses a phenomenological method to describe, interpret, and reflect on the experiences of devotees who have visited the San Agustin shrine in search of signs that the miraculous image of San Agustin holds meaning for Catholic spirituality. Creswell (1998) suggests conducting in-depth interviews with six participants to achieve a multi-perspective understanding of a phenomenon. The current study followed this advice. The interviewees’ permission was also required to use their audio recordings and their raw experiences to analyse data.Findings: According to the results of this research, believers’ faith in the miraculous image of San Agustin de Tanza stems solely from their personal encounters with God. If you ask Pieris (2007), this is not a form of idolatry or animism; rather, it is cosmic religiosity.Implications/Novel Contribution: There is a need for a healthy and innovative relationship between churchgoers and church officials, and this study sheds light on some of the challenges the church faces today, like a growing number of churchgoers who are inactive in the church’s activities. This research can potentially improve communication between laypeople and religious leaders over time.

Abstract

Aim: This research aims to examine the extent to which fat shaming contributes to the development of Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) in adolescent girls.Method: Teenage girls with BDD were surveyed using a qualitative, case-study approach, with initial screening involving the use of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-V) to establish a diagnosis of BDD. The data in this study were also analyzed using a holistic Yin perspective.Findings: The data from this study shows that everyone who participated in the survey endured some form of negative bullying because of their weight, most notably from members of their own family and friends (schoolmates and playmates). Confidence, pride, self-acceptance, self-conception, social interaction, eating disorders, camouflage, and BDD are all negatively impacted for those respondents who are subjected to fat-shaming regularly.Implications/Novel Contribution: The study results imply that people should be taught to value themselves and others regardless of their size, shape, or appearance. Additionally, one should stop trying to improve themselves or others by measuring themselves against artificial benchmarks or other people.

Abstract

Aim: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between college students’ sense of academic self-efficacy and their tendency to put off making important decisions while working on their thesis.Method: With the help of a sampling strategy, we collected responses from 120 college students. Both the Academic Self-Efficacy Scale and the Melbourne Decision-Making Questionnaire were used. During the evaluation, researchers used SPSS 22.0.Findings: The data analysis using simple regression found that academic self-efficacy significantly influenced decisional procrastination toward college students preparing a thesis. Students’ decisional procrastination was negatively correlated with their academic self-efficacy, such that higher levels of academic self-efficacy were associated with lower levels of procrastination in thesis preparation.Implications/Novel Contribution: The findings of this study have important implications for the field of education because they shed light on how factors such as students’ levels of self-confidence or their perceptions of the tasks they were assigned can affect their performance. Individual differences and the types of tasks that influenced procrastination could be investigated further in studies that examine demographic factors.

Abstract

Aim: The primary purpose of this research was to analyze and evaluate the policies currently in place in Nepal that affect Nepal’s indigenous population. This paper focuses on the Raute people and how government decisions have impacted their standard of living.Method: This study used a descriptive methodology. The Raute people of Nepal’s mid to far-western development regions were singled out because they seem to have felt the greatest impact from shifting international legal norms and domestic policy agendas.Findings: Evidence from various regions, such as Africa, Latin America, and Asia, shows that national policies often need to give more priority to protecting indigenous peoples and their knowledge. Adivasi Janajati, Nepal’s indigenous people, account for about 37.2% of the country’s total population. They comprise a sizable population but have been marginalized from mainstream society. The dominant groups have effectively marginalized Indigenous peoples’ autonomy in terms of territory, resources, language, culture, customary law, and access to political and economic power.Implications/Novel Contribution: Even though Nepal has ratified ILO Convention No. 169 on Indigenous and Tribal Peoples, the rights of indigenous people are not guaranteed in the country’s recently promulgated Constitution of 2015. How this brand-new constitution and national laws deal with the provisions of this ILO Convention remains to be seen.
