Abstract

Transculturation utilizes the contact zone as a productive literary and analytical space in which a third-world writer negotiates between Western and non-Western sensibilities, appropriates Western materials for self-representations, and problematizes Euro-American hegemonic discourses. This paper employs Pratt’s ideas of contact zone and transculturation as its theoretical framework to examine how Hanif adopts transculturation as the medium for negotiation, appropriation, and transformation in Red Birds to challenge Eurocentrism and to question the binary of western self and Muslim other in backdrops of 9/11 and War on Terror. This qualitative research primarily analyzes Red Birds as a transcultural negotiation between American and Muslim subjects. It is found that Hanif, as a transcultural fiction writer, appropriates postmodern rejection of hegemonic metanarratives for constructing self-representations to speak back to the west from the position of marginality. By employing Belsey’s proposed research method of textual analysis, we read Red Birds as a contact zone and establish that Hanif inverts the conflict of War on Terror between the Americans and the Muslims into a contact zone to imagine the possibilities of their coexistence. The paper foregrounds the disruption of Eurocentric discourses of global security and Western/Muslim binary to suggest that Pakistani Anglophone fiction has moved beyond the constraints of 9/11 discourses.

Abstract

The examinations are a compulsory part of the education system and are conducted under certain processes and protocols. The Punjab Examination Commission (PEC) was established by the government of Punjab to administer mandatory examinations for 5th and 8th grade (elementary level examination) in Punjab, Pakistan, which is managed by the government. The PEC is an examining body, but it has no staff or infrastructure, although exam is conducted by the districts under the supervision of the PEC, mostly in secondary schools. So, a study was conducted to explore the challenges and problems faced by heads in conducting PEC exams. The secondary school heads are accountable for the class’s quality education and the results of secondary-level grades. It employed a descriptive, survey-based research approach targeting head teachers, resident inspectors, superintendents, and teachers in Khanewal, Lodhran, Multan, and Muzaffargarh Districts of Punjab province. Mix methodology data collection processes were used through quantitative (questionnaire survey with 100 respondents) and qualitative (semi-structured Interview with 12 respondents) methods were utilized. The findings from both surveys aligned with the study and highlighted issues such as staff shortages, space constraints, student and staff indiscipline, lack of training, capacity building, logistical challenges, security and safety concerns, and time management conflicts with secondary class schedules. Despite these challenges, respondents generally praised the transparency of the PEC exams. Suggestions for improvement included consolidating exam centers within schools, altering exam timing to keep class timings in view to remove space constraints, decentralizing the exam process, enhancing staff training, and increasing honoraria. The study advocates for further research to enhance the examination system's effectiveness.

Abstract

This research adds to the human capital and growth debate by examining the moderating role of net foreign direct investment inflows on the impact of human capital formation on growth in Pakistan while controlling renewable energy, carbon emission, and urbanization from 1990 to 2019. Furthermore, the study aims to explore the long-run and short-run interplay between human capital, physical capital, renewable energy, carbon emission, urbanization, and economic growth. The study also provides policy implications for achieving sustainable development goals. The autoregressive distributed lag framework has been used in an attempt to achieve the desired objectives. In order to assess the short-term impacts on the underlying variables, the error correction model is computed. The long-run estimations are obtained by applying the autoregressive distributed lag methodology. The findings show that foreign direct invesment, renewable energy, physical capital, and human capital formation all have positive effects on Pakistan's economic growth over the long and short terms. Foreign direct invesment greatly increases human capital, and this promotes economic growth. At the same time, urbanization and carbon emissions have negative effects on growth over the long and short terms. The study offers policy recommendations for the stakeholders based on the empirical findings, which will support sustainable development and equitable growth. To achieve sustainable development goal 4, which aims to protect inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifetime learning opportunities as essential for human capital development, Pakistan should prioritize investing in the development of human capital through health and education. Prioritise policies that encourage the use of renewable energy sources to lower CO2 emissions to achieve environmental sustainability and inclusive growth. The government should also put policies in place that encourage foreign direct invesment inflows. SDGs 8 and 9—decent work, economic growth, support industry, innovation, and infrastructure—can be accomplished with the aid of attracting foreign direct investment and enhancing human capital.

Abstract

This study examines the volatility transmission of COVID-19 to different financial markets, specifically oil, gold, Bitcoin, and the stock market, in the countries with the highest number of coronavirus-infected cases reported. The sample includes China, Italy, the U.K., and the U.S., and the sample period is January 2, 2020, to June 30, 2020. The garch-in-mean test has been utilized to examine the volatility transmission, and the results show that COVID-19 negatively affects the gold returns in China, Italy, and the U.S. The spillover transmission of the pandemic has also extended to the stock markets in China, Italy, and the U.S., negatively affecting returns. The spillover to the oil market is positive and only significant for the U.K. In cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin returns are negatively affected as a response to the volatility spillover in the U.K. Market efficiency has also been investigated in the aforementioned financial markets through the JarqueBera statistic, autocorrelation test, unit root tests, and multiple variance ratio test. Most of the tests reflect the inefficiency in almost all of the markets of the selected sample. Most of the markets have proven to be inefficient. The findings have significant implications for market participants and policymakers in understanding how sensitive financial markets are to the pandemic, which will help develop appropriate and required response mechanisms.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence has become the mark of the day; no one of the aspects of life is beyond it. Education is not only a field but a way to train and make the generation civilized, AI made this scenario easy and advanced; building confidence in AI-enabled education systems becomes a fundamental requirement for its successful application. This research article aims to investigate the connections among trust, privacy, and surveillance related to AI-facilitated educational contexts, drawing on insights from Christina Castelfranchi and Rino Falcone's work "Trust Theory: A Socio-cognitive and Computational Model." This study examines the multiple aspects of trust building, including computational dimensions and socio cognitive dimensions, which can be helpful but difficult to investigate the attitudes and actions in an AI-mediated educational environment. This article delivers an elaborate exploration of the drivers affecting trust in AI systems deployed for educational purposes by carefully examining trustworthiness, perceived dangers, and institutional trust. Additionally, thorough examination and inherent privacy would be the foundational aspects of privacy and surveillance issues associated with AI detection, protection, and surveillance risk mitigation measures. This scholarly discourse, supported by empirical evidence, illustrative case studies, and prescriptive recommendations, articulates actionable strategies for building trust and addressing privacy and surveillance concerns in AI-enabled educational landscapes, heralding the arrival of ethically sound and trustworthy educational technologies.

Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to provide a comparison that describes the effect of web and app advertisements on the purchase intention of a consumer. As the web and app advertising sector grows, it's crucial to understand their effectiveness. This research investigates and equates web and app advertisements with reference to consumer behavior with variables of self-congruence, brand image, and brand identification and their impact on intention to purchase. The study also explains how web or app advertisements influence buyer intentions through the mediating role of brand identification. Literature based on the web and apps used in marketing, branding, and social identification are used to construct conceptual models. The research methodology is based on an online self-administered survey questionnaire. The sample used for analysis is 300 customers of personal care products consumers. Both Smart_PLS and SPSS are used for data analysis. The findings reveal significant and positive effects of both web and app advertisements on consumer behavior. Web advertisements have a stronger impact than app advertisements. Furthermore, the mediation of self-congruence brand image and brand identification is also found to be significant. These findings highlight the critical importance of digital advertising strategies in transforming consumer brand perceptions and buying intentions. This research provides valuable insights into the field of marketing, underlining the significance of web and app advertisements in transmuting consumer branding perceptions and purchase intentions.

Abstract

The performance of nurses and doctors is vital for the proper functioning of the healthcare system of any country and for providing quality care to patients. However, the working of the healthcare personnel in Pakistan has deteriorated over previous years, and they are engaged in more negative workplace behaviors. The current study examines the direct effect of leader-motivating language on counterproductive work behavior. The indirect mediating effect of perceived interactional justice is also examined in this relationship. Purposive sampling was used to collect the data from 440 healthcare staff working in hospitals operating in the Multan region, Pakistan. The analysis was done using SPSS and the hypotheses were tested with PROCESS macro technique. The results supported the four hypotheses developed for the study and it was proved that leader motivating language has significant impact on both counterproductive work behavior and perceived interactional justice. Moreover, interactional justice was also significantly related to counterproductive work behavior. The mediating effect of perceived interactional justice was also confirmed. The study contributes to Motivating language theory by investigating the proposed new integration of variables and establishing the underlying mechanism of interactional justice. The findings of the study are practically useful for the hospitals so that negative behaviors among staff can be reduced and overall effectiveness can be improved.
