DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4571
ABSTRACT: Islamic Edowement (Waqf) Digitalization is an innovative breakthrough that can support waqf
development. Currently, the waqf Collection, Management and Distribution (CMD) are eased by digital
technology. However, there are unequal implementations among selected Organization of Islamic Cooperation
(OIC's) member countries that affected of the waqf progress itself. Several countries optimized this media as
important tool to enhance the huge of cash waqf potential while others got stuck on classical obstacles such as
regulation and human resources. Therefore, the study aims to identify and analyze several issues and find a proper
solution regarding to current waqf'sdigital technology uses. This qualitative research use content analysis of several
previous references that obtained from numerous reputable journals and other relevant sources. The results show
that the basic philosophy of waqf digital technology is benefit, taysir, taghyiral ahkam, urf and maqashid sharia for
great waqf improvement. Through this philosophy, several countries' studies have shown significant development
of waqf. However, there are implementation differences between them since the budget is a matter. It takes large
funds to be achieved. Government involvement is required to overcome the main obstacle. In addition, waqf
human resource expertise is an important aspect to master. Therefore, recommendations of the study for future
relevant strategies and frameworks are integrating Islamic endowment funds and government budgets to foster
waqf operationalization as well as formulating an appropriate human capital collaboration

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4572
ABSTRACT: Education is critical for the progress and changes of nations across the world. The purpose of the study
was to the influence of instructional supervision on students' academic performance in public secondary schools
in Kenya. The article is an extract from a study done in public secondary schools in the Yatta sub-county,
Machakos County, Kenya. The study was guided by the instructional leadership model. The researcher adopted a
descriptive research design, survey method. The study was conducted among 247 respondents comprising 19
principals and 228 teachers. The study employed stratified sampling techniques and simple random sampling
techniques. Data collection was done using questionnaires for principals and teachers. Data were analysed using
Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). The findings, from the principal's perspective, revealed that there
exists a weak positive correlation between the principal's instructional supervision and students' academic
performance (r = 0.236 p = 0.330). However, from the teacher's perspective, the findings show that there is a
weak negative correlation between the principal's instructional supervision and students' academic performance (r
=- 0.190, p =0.009). Therefore, the study concluded that instructional supervision is crucial, but it must be carried
out properly and with the participation of all parties concerned for the best result. It was, thus, suggested that the
principals in public secondary schools should enhance instructional supervision by always being actively involved
in the day-to-day learning of the institutions and engaging the teacher in planning for the supervision to enhance
students' performance.

Sri Endah Wahyuningsih 1, Yunitha Arifin 2 and Umar Ma'ruf 3
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4573
ABSTRACT: Law enforcement of corruption by corruptors still has gaps to be exploited by irresponsible parties in
weakening the position of political or business opponents. The formulation in the legal system of criminal acts of
corruption is unclear, making law enforcers less professional in applying the law in the field of criminal acts of
corruption. The purpose of this study is to analyze and find corruption law enforcement regulations within the
BUMN business framework that are not yet based on the value of justice and the weaknesses of corruption law
enforcement regulations within the current BUMN business framework in Indonesia, as well as the reconstruction
of corruption law enforcement regulations in Indonesia. SOE business framework based on the value of justice.
The research method used is constructivism paradigm, sociological juridical approach, and qualitative analysis. The
results of the study show that the law enforcement regulations for corruption within the BUMN business
framework are not based on the value of justice, that the state financial loss will be closely related to the
provisions of Law no. 1 of 2004 concerning the State Treasury and provisions related to the position, duties and
functions of the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK). 2) The weakness of the legal substance is that in substance the
existence of 4 (four) laws and regulations that are multi -aspects in BUMN and have different regulatory objects
from each other have resulted in confusion over the financial accountability of BUMN. The weakness of the
aspect of legal structure is that there is no synergy between law enforcers so that it is no longer fragmentary and
the existence of the paradigm of the judiciary shows that the legal structure came first but has not yet been
followed by adequate legal substance. Weaknesses in the aspect of legal culture are often subjective in nature
which highlights, among other things, the loyalty and loyalty of law enforcement officials in carrying out and
carrying out state duties, patterns of behavior and professionalism of officers, being one of the main issues that
must be studied for reform and a solution in enforcing criminal law. corruption within the framework of an
integral SOE business.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4574
ABSTRACT: Information, Communication and Globalization has made the preparation of reports very easy because
large volume of transactions needs to be processed. Quality corporate reporting is very essential for the growth of
an organization and thus development of the economy of any country. Over the years the quality of reporting has
received global and heightened concern as a result of the role it plays in allowing users of financial statements
make economic decisions which to a very large extent talks about the soundness and healthiness of a business firm
or organization. The objective of the study was to critically examine the relationship between Quality of Corporate
Reporting and stakeholder's interest. The study adopted an ex-post facto research design. The population was 35
manufacturing companies while 10 were selected purposively for a period of 10 years making 100 firm year
observations. The findings reveal that Quality Corporate reporting had a significant impact on Creditors interest
(Adj R2= 0.653, F(2, 97) = 48.60, P < 0.05), it also had a significant relationship on employees interest(Adj R2=
0.0.733, F(2, 97) = 40.81, P < 0.05). The study concluded that there exists a significant relationship between
Quality of Corporate Reporting and all the variables of Stakeholders interest. It was recommended that Owners
and Management of businesses must ensure that a mechanism and a structure is put in place to ensure that reports
prepared are of high quality that will meet the needs of the stakeholders.

Exchange of Thailand
1 Wanlapa Thomya, 2Napaporn Likitwongkajon, 3 Grid Rangsungnoen*
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4575
ABSTRACT: Purpose - Capital expenditure reflects a company's investment in long-term assets expected to
generate value for shareholders over time. Such expenses mostly expect to improve a company's future
performance. This research aims to explore the relationship between capital expenditure and future firm
performance.
Design/methodology/approach - A sample (n=475) of registered companies listed on the stock exchange of
Thai (SET) from 2000-2016 was selected. The time period selected for this research allows the researchers to
analyze the relationship during the period of economic growth and stability. Secondary data was harvested from
the Thomson Reuters Datastream database.
Findings - A regression analysis showed a negative relationship between capital expenditure and future firm
performance, as measured by return on assets (ROA) and dividends. Notably, this negative relationship was found
to be statistically significant across the board, first for all companies and second for a unique subset of larger
companies.
Originality/value - Such findings go against general expectations. Subsequently, the study has implications for
general practice, investment, and the academe.In particular, it sheds light on the potential impact of agency on
investment expenses. Practically, registered SET companies can use this insight to make informed investment
decisions; investors to make investment decisions, and lenders to make lending decisions. Overall, this research
provides value for various stakeholders across financial exchanges.

Sulistyowati Sulistyowati
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4576
ABSTRACT: The paper explores the compatibility of zakat towards Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The
study applies library research that benefited from various relevant articles. The data were gathered from many
reputable journals and other appropriate resources. The result show that zakat as one of Islamic obligations is
highly compatible with SDGs instrument as well as most of the content of the SDGs reflects Islamic principles, in
the case of Maqasid al Sharia. Zakat (alms) have a beneficial effect on poverty, hunger, outstanding education,
economic justice, and good health, whether directly or indirectly.The particular SDGs objectives are consistent
with Islamic zakat values such as SDG 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11, 14, and 16. Both zakat and SDGs have the same
objectives accomplished in order to attain national and ummah well-being. A humble recommendation for the
relevant stakeholders in coordination with other players, including the government, commercial sector, charitable,
and civil society organizations will be critical as with other SDG collaborations.In order deeply to understand the
relationship between zakat and SDGs evolved, further research should engage the empirical data from several
proper respondents such as UNDP officers and zakat regulators as well as practitioners.

PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP IN FINANCING ADULT EDUCATION:
IMPLICATIONS FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN NIGERIA
Taylor, Daerego I. (PhD) 1, Jack, David B. 2, and Kevin C. Wami 3
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4577
ABSTRACT: Adult education is concerned with developing the adult population of a country to become useful to
themselves and their societies. It is aimed at equipping adults with the right knowledge, skills and attitudes
required to actualize their full potentials, and then depends on them to, in turn, apply themselves to the all-round
development of their societies. In Nigeria, adult education is relevant and strategic in the development of the
nation. However, there are many challenges to adult education in Nigeria. One of such challenges is poor
funding. The cause of poor funding is government's inability to single-handedly finance adult education in Nigeria.
This, therefore, underscores the need for an alternative means of funding adult education which is very important
to national development - a joint effort, sort of, in financing adult education towards sustainable development in
Nigeria. To this end, a public-private partnership (PPP) becomes a necessary avenue. This paper examined the
nature of public-private partnership in financing adult education and its implications for sustainable development.
The authors relied on qualitative data from theoretical sources and recommended ways through which the
Nigerian government can build synergy with private individuals and organizations in financing adult education
towards sustainable development in Nigeria.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4578
ABSTRACT: The paper aims at detecting factors affecting the attraction of foreign direct investment capital in 6
economic regions of Vietnam under the impact of Covid-19 in the period from 2010 to 2021. Through the
regression method of the random effects model (REM) and fixed effects model (FEM), the study shows the
coefficient of interactive variables such as labor including labor cost (CPLD) and quality of labor (CLLD),
infrastructure including facilities (CSHT) and volume of freight (KLHHVC), agglomeration including foreign
agglomeration (QTNN) and private agglomeration (QTTN) and market size (GDP) according to Covid are all
negative and statistically significant, which shows that when other factors are held constant, the rate of increase in
FDI according to the independent variables is lower in the presence of Covid than in the absence of Covid. Based
on the findings, some recommendations have been made to improve the ability of Vietnamese provinces and
cities to attract foreign investment capital after the Covid-19 pandemic.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4580
ABSTRACT: Accounting is a global language, yet it varies from society to society. This explains the inevitability of
accounting practice convergence and harmonization. The success of organizations has a lot to do with the
efficiency of their human resource. Human resource is becoming more valuable to businesses than ever before.
Human Resource Accounting is a recent controversial issue in accounting field; this concept is not new in
accounting. However, it involves accounting for expenditure related to human asset in an organisation as opposed
to traditional accounting which merely expense these costs and reduces profit which to our mind sub-optimise
financial reporting.Human Resource Accounting is a recent controversial issue in accounting field, this concept is
not new in accounting. Human resource Accounting (HRA) involves accounting for expenditure related to human
asset in an organisation as opposed to traditional accounting which merely expenses these costs and reduces profit
which to our mind sub-optimises financial reporting. The study therefore explored the relationship between
international financial reporting standard and human resource accounting.
The study used the exploratory method, as various literatures which relates to the subject matters IFRS and
Human resource accounting were review to establish a connection between International Financial Reporting
Standards and Human Resource Accounting.
The study found out from the several literatures reviewed that currently, there is no specific International
Financial Reporting Standard that deals with human resources.
The study concluded that human resources accounting provides information on human resources to the company
and other users of accounting information. Furthermore, some unethical issues that impact negatively on the
accuracy of financial reporting might be resolved by human resource accounting.

Grid-connected Consumption Model of Clean Energy Power Generation Based on Digital Drive
Yu Xiaobao 1, Zhao Wenjing 2
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4582
ABSTRACT: The traditional cross-provincial and regional power trading mechanism can hardly meet the growing
demand for clean energy consumption in China. The paper proposes a inter-provincial trading path based on the
digital-driven cross-regional power trading and consumption, and establishes a cross-regional market trading
model to support the large-scale consumption of clean energy. The analysis results show that the cross-regional
trading market mechanism and trading model can adapt to the demand for clean energy consumption in China
and increase the proportion of clean energy consumption across regions.

Yu Xiaobao 1, Zhao Wenjing 2
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4583
ABSTRACT: With the proposal of the national "carbon peaking and carbon neutrality" and "building a new power
system with new energy as the main body" and other goals, cleaning and digitization have become an urgent need
for power systems. Based on advanced control, metering, communication and other technologies, the virtual
power plant aggregates massive multi-distributed resources on the demand side, which can provide the necessary
flexibility support for the power system through diversified means of saving, and at the same time help renewable
energy consumption. The digital twin technology uses big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence and other
digital technologies to virtually model the characteristics, behavior, processes and performance of the physical
entities of distributed resources, which is an ideal way to achieve virtual power plant operation optimization. This
paper illustrates the basic definition and system construction of digital twin virtual power plants, and analyzes the
participation of virtual power plants in the multi-level market models of auxiliary services, medium and long-term,
and spot, so as to provide reference for the construction and development of China's digital twin virtual power
plants participating in the power market.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4586
ABSTRACT: High school dropout rates have long been a problem for school districts, and various contributing
factors have solved the problem. Most of these students have been plagued by the inability to integrate into the
mainstream of school life due to socio-economic standing, lack of parental support, and many other problems.
This qualitative study examined how distance learning courses have the potential to increase high school
graduation rates and attendance rates. This study was conducted at an alternative high school where the primary
goal is to ensure nontraditional students' academic and personal support needed to graduate from high school.
Five themes emerged from the participants responses: Academic Acceleration, Flexible Scheduling, Academic
Support, Safe Environment, and Transportation. These themes were consistent with previous literature that
supports the success and demand of distance learning settings, and the lower dropout rate for older students.

Day Secondary Education (FDSE), many school going age boys have been dropping out of school. School dropout for boys is a very serious issue not only in Kenya but also in the whole world. Although many studies have
been carried out in other parts of Kenya, none has investigated the factors behind the increased dropout of the
boy child in secondary education particularly in Kericho County. The main purpose of this study was to
investigate class teachers' perceptions on selected factors influencing the boy-child's drop-out in mixed day
secondary schools in Kericho County. The objectives of the study were: to examine class teachers' perceptions on
the influence of social factors on boy child drop-out,to examine class teachers’ perceptions on the influence of
economic factors on boy child drop-out and to find out class teachers' perceptions on the influence of schoolbased factors on boy child dropout. The study used mixed method research design utilizing both quantitative and
qualitative approaches. The study was guided by Gibson’s Theory of Direct Perception and Bronfenbrenner's
Biosystems Theory. The research was pragmatic and adopted descriptive survey research design. The target
population comprised 176 form 4 class teachers. Multistage sampling was used during sampling whereby 121
schools were sampled to participate in the study. Krejce and Morgan sample size determination table was used to
select a sample size of 121 public secondary schools. From the table, 121 form 4 class teachers were sampled
purposively. Data was collected using questionnaires. Piloting of the instruments was carried out to ensure
reliability which was estimated using split-half reliability. Validity of the instruments was ascertained in relation to
the set objectives. Quantitative data was analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics using the
Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 24. Qualitative data was presented thematically and in
narrations and quotations. The findings of the study will be used to provide useful information to the ministry of
education policy makers on the implementation of workable strategies that will promote boys' education and
provide a basis upon which other studies can be anchored. The results may be of much significance to teachers,
parents and students in understanding the factors that influence education retention among the boys and come up
with other ways of curbing this drop-out problem.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4591
ABSTRACT: This research aims to analyze the effect of competencies, organizational climate, and organization
facility on motivation to learn mediated by strategic change management and how far the implications of learning
conditions in military education institutions can affect student officer motivation to learn. This research uses a
quantitative approach through hypothesis testing to test the direct and indirect effects between the independent
variables on the dependent variable using the Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Model with the SmartPLS
data processing program. This research was conducted cross-sectionally by distributing questionnaires to 400
Indonesian Naval Command and Staff College student officers. The direct effect is shown in a positive and
significant effect on competencies, organizational climate, organization facility, and strategic change management
on student officer motivation to learn. At the same time, the indirect effect is shown in the influence of strategic
change management as a mediating variable in a positive and significant way towards competencies, organizational
climate, and organization facility.

Critical Analysis of Contrast as a stylistic Device in Tsitsi Dangarembga's Works
Justus Maneno Kumbu and Margaret Njoki Mwihia
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4592
ABSTRACT: This study critically examined contrast as a stylistic strategy employed in Tsitsi Dangarembga’s books:
Nervous Condition, Book of Not and This Mournable Body. The objectives of the study were to analyze identity on
contrast, determine class stratification on contrast and assess place where contrast is noted in the selected books.
The main argument of this project is that: through presentation of contrast, the writer attempts to empower and
motivate the disadvantaged in the selected books. The primary concern to this study is the way the author
unleashes the potential of black people. She also shows what is expected of them by the society. The study
examined the channel of acquiring wealth. One must be educated and be a male so as to be rich in a case one is an
African. Opportunities are given to female characters if there are no male ones in the family. The writer
demonstrates the reason to unmask the biased image of Africans and women in the colonial era. The study
analyzed the traditions and beliefs that bar Africans progress. This study is useful material for reference to other
researchers and readers. The study is guided by Karl Marx’s strategic conflict theory. The theory is about the
competition of limited resources in the society. The study used textual analysis in analyzing the selected books. It
was library based which involved intensive and extensive reading of the selected texts. The three books were
selected using purposive sampling technique. The study advocated for the appropriate presentation of contrast so
as to avoid being biased against people who should be valued in the society.

in the Government of Central Sulawesi Province
Fiansi 1, Syahir Natsir 2 and Harnida Wahyuni Adda 3
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4593
ABSTRACT: The Government's efforts in the bureaucratic reform policy are to make improvements by issuing Law
Number 5 of 2014 concerning the State Civil Apparatus, one of the points of which is a paradigm shift in filling
ASN positions which is fully carried out in the election mechanism by Baperjakat to a new method, namely open
selection or commonly known as with the designation of auction positions, Analyzing Bureaucratic Neutrality in
the Process of implementing the placement of ASN Primary High Leader Positions using the Position Auction
Model in the Central Sulawesi Government Environment. This type of qualitative research uses a critical
ethnographic analysis approach. There were 24 informants in this study. The selection of informants was carried
out using a purposive sampling technique. The results of research in the process of implementing the auction for
high leadership positions are still not based on a person's competence; there is still intervention in the
appointment of high leadership positions. Therefore, it is necessary to have a new policy issued by the
government in terms of handling human resources, especially in terms of the responsibilities of the position of
ASN Primary High leadership.

ADMINISTRATION OF PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES IN NORTH EASTERN NIGERIA
1 CLETUS Edoh, 2 OCHAI, G. O. Ph.D, 3 AGBE, J.I. Ph.D, 4 IDOKO Alphonsus A. Ph.D
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4594
ABSTRACT: The study investigated the influence of Treasury Single Account (TSA) policy on monitoring fraudulent
practices and blocking financial leakages on the administration of public universities in North Eastern Nigeria.
two specific objectives with corresponding research questions guided the study and two hypotheses were
formulated and tested at 0.05 level of significance. The study adopted a survey research design, and was carried
out in North Eastern Nigeria. The population of the study comprised 547 Bursary staff of Federal Universities in
North Eastern Nigeria. The sample size for the study comprised 231 Bursary staff obtained from the use of Taro
Yamane formula for sample size determination. The instrument for data collection was a structured questionnaire.
The reliability of the instrument was estimated using Cronbach Alpha statistic and an overall reliability coefficient
of 0.84 was obtained. The data was analyzed using Means and Standard Deviation to answer the research
questions. Chi-Square Statistic to test the null hypotheses at 0.05level of significance. Findings of the study
revealed that the implementation of TSA has made inflation of contract difficult and has also made fabrication of
accounts to disclose false position in public sector difficult to perpetuate in the administration of public
universities. It further revealed that maintenance of Treasury Single Account helps to eliminate idle funds usually
left with different commercial banks in the administration of public universities and Treasury Single Account
enhances e-payment collection and this influences the administration of public universities. Based on these
findings, it was recommended that; Federal government should ensure all contracts in within the university is
solely monitored using TSA, as this would make inflation of contract difficult and also make fabrication of
accounts to disclose false position in public universities difficult to perpetuate, therefore enhancing speedy
execution of projects for efficient administration of public universities. Federal government should sensitize Vice
Chancellors on the constant need of institutionalizing Treasury Single Account in their respective schools, as it
would help to eliminate idle funds usually left with different commercial banks via e-payment as this would make
more cash available to the government to address other needs in public universities.

NORTH AFRICA SAGA: THE BEGINNING AND FALL OF DONATIST CHURCH IN
CARTHAGE, NORTH AFRICA
JAMES ARUMA ILARIOUS PhD.
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4595
ABSTRACT: Christianity in North Africa then was not of a recent happening nor was it a by-product of missionary
enterprise of colonialism. The Church in North Africa had flourished for about five hundred years before Islam
was born and even before the coming of the white missionaries into the continent of Africa. This study
undertakes to examine the rise and fall of the Donatist Church in Carthage, North Africa. The study is to establish
the beginning and the causes of the fall of the Church and how some key figures in the Catholic Church
collaborated with the Roman government to destroy and bring the Church to its final extinction. Library method
is used in this study where both primary and secondary sources are employed. These include: published books,
magazines, journals, newspapers, government gazettes, repots of organizations, manuscripts, and dairies. The
findings of the study amongst others include: lack of proper evangelism, heresies and internal rivalries, divisions,
government monopoly of Church affairs and persecution. The implications of the study showed that the failure of
the Church to use the language and culture of the people within which the Church is established led to
unsuccessful outcome. Rivalry for positions in the Church, divisions, and this coupled with capture of North
Africa by Vandals in 429 and finally by the Muslims in 698 led to the disappearance of both the Donatist as well as
the Catholic Churches in Carthage, North Africa.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4596
ABSTRACT: This study aims to determine and analyze the influence of spending unit authority and accrual-based
accounting on the effectiveness of performance-based budgeting and its impact on spending quality performance.
The approach used in this study is quantitative with the structural equation modeling (SEM) method and LISREL
analysis tool. The study was conducted on treasury officials within spending units of line ministries/agency in
Indonesia. The results of the study suggests that: (1) the implmentation of greater spending-unit authority has no
effect on the effectiveness of performance-based budgeting; (2) Accrual-based accounting has a positive and
significant effect influence on the effectiveness of performance-based budgeting; (3) the effectiveness of
performance-based budgeting has positive and siginificant effect on quality of spending performance of
spending-unit; (4) the implementation of spending unit authority has no indirect effect on quality of spending
performance through the effectiveness of performance-based budgeting; (5) accrual-based accounting has indirect
effect on quality of spending performance through the effectiveness of performance-based budgeting. The
findings in this research provide insight that the exercise of greater authority in spending the budget should be
accompanied by close monitoring to ensure the accountability of sepnding.

Cognitive Orientation and Incentive System on Team Performance: Experimental Studies in
Accounting Decision Making
Yusnaini Yusnaini 1, Arista Hakiki 2, Sri Maryati 3
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4597
ABSTRACT: At this time the organization has adopted a group or team-based structure in operation and
coordination in order to improve performance (Libby and Thorne, 2009; Chenhall, 2008). However, team-based
structures are not necessarily able to improve performance. Economic literature states that working in a team can
decrease performance due to potential conflicts between individuals within the team and group incentives.
Instead, organizational literature shows that working in a team can improve performance through collectivist
cognitive orientation. The study aims to analyze how the incentive system and cognitive orientation (individualized
or collectivist) influence team performance. This research uses experimental design to accounting students and
using 2x2 factorial design scenarios. The results showed that the collectivist orientation team had higher
performance than the individualist cognitive oriented team without considering the type of incentive scheme
provided. The results of this study also indicate that the variation of incentive schemes has little effect on the
performance of collectivist groups compared to individualist groups.

A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE OGRE MOTIF: A THEMATIC APPROACH TO PURPLE HIBISCUS AND PETALS OF BLOOD
Koros Jeruto Esther and Dr. Margaret Njoki Mwihia
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4598
ABSTRACT: Ogre narratives have for a long time been a didactic, entertaining and historical tool in the preliterate
Africa. It served as the curricula for both informal and non-formal education of the mentioned era. The postcolonial period that ushered in a literate Africa did not extinguish the existence of this genre but instead integrated
it into its modern written materials such as the short story, the novel and the play. A close study of the modern
African works reveals a consistency between the African novel and the oral narrative. The objective of this study
was to critically analyse the themes in Purple Hibiscus and Petals of Blood with the aim of highlighting and
relating them to the ogre motif. Such themes include; greed, cruelty, destruction, heroism, sexism, vengeance and
victimization. This study benefited from descriptive research design that adopted a qualitative approach, its target
population being all the texts authored by both Ngugi Wa Thiongó and Adichie Chimamanda. Purposive sampling
was used to select the two texts of interest and from which primary data was collected. Close textual analysis was
done with a view of getting enough data for the study and to describe the arguments relating to thematic trends of
the ogre motif. The study revealed in its findings that modern African writings borrow heavily from the orate
African literature. It revealed a consistency between the modern African writings and the preliterate orate African
literature (otherwise known as orature) in terms of themes.

What about the emotional labor of university teachers in teaching? A survey from a Chinese
university
ZHENG Jiuhua 1, LIU Na 2*
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4599
ABSTRACT: Emotional labor is an important factor that affects the teaching effectiveness of teachers, and university
teachers are no exception. In order to understand the current status of emotional labor among university teachers,
this paper investigated the emotional labor of 253 university teachers from China. The results showed that
university teachers have a high perception of emotional display rules, and engage in high levels of emotional labor
behavior. They employ more deep acting and naturally felt emotion strategies in emotional labor, and age
differences were found in surface acting, which decreases with age. Finally, this paper proposes suggestions for
improving the impact of emotional labor at both the individual and organizational levels. University teachers need
to continuously improve their own emotional management abilities and intrinsic work motivation, while
universities need to create a good educational ecological environment and provide social support for university
teachers.

The role of innovation performance
Thuy Dam Thi 1 and Hue Nguyen Thanh 2
DOI: https://doi.org/10.56293/IJMSSSR.2022.4600
ABSTRACT: The aim of this study is to examine the impact of TQM practices on the business performance of hotels
in Vietnam, considering the role of innovation performance in the current business context. Data were collected
from 190 hotels with a rating of three stars or higher in Vietnam in 2022. By using SEM analysis, we have
demonstrated that TQM practices have a positive effect on hotels' business performance, and innovation
performance plays an intermediary role in the relationship between TQM practices and business performance.
Therefore, hotels should not only focus on implementing TQM principles to enhance service quality but also
prioritize business, service, and process innovation to improve their results. This study highlights the importance
of both TQM practices and innovation performance in achieving success in the hotel industry.
Keyword: TQM, innovation performance, hotel's performance, Vietnam.
