Temples are complex institutions that work at the crossroads of religion, culture, governance, and economics. They control vast amounts of resources; plan and coordinate large events; and contribute significantly to local economies through the heritage tourism industry. The scholarly interest in temple management has been substantial in recent years, however, the literature has been published across a number of different disciplines (tourism studies; heritage conservation; religious studies; organizational management); to date, no complete mapping of the intellectual structure of this research field exists. This study examines the current research landscape; it intends to provide a detailed map of trends in temple management literature published over the years, the geographic distribution of research, influential journals and authors, thematic clusters of work and collaborative networks, and will also identify research gaps and areas for future research. A systematic bibliometric study was performed using 228 academically accepted, peer-reviewed journal articles sourced from the Scopus database covering the timeframe of 2010-2025. Articles were identified using two keywords: “temple” AND “management.” The dataset underwent a multi-stage filtering process based on year of publication, subject area, type of publication, language and country of affiliation. Data analysis included the use of VOSviewer for co-authorship/co-occurrence analysis as well as generating visualisations of networks within the data set. Publications output considerably increased between 2023 and 2022 in most countries studied (Thailand, India, United States, China). Overall, there were four major thematic clusters identified by the data: 1) Tourism Management; 2) Preservation of Cultural Heritage; 3) Heritage of Southeast Asia; 4) Social Science Research. A clear pattern was noted in the co-authorship networks where publication co-authors tended to be within their country and a low percentage were international authors. A number of “critical gaps” were found with regard to AI/smart technology use, climate change adaptation, gender issues, and financial governance. Temple Management is evolving rapidly and, as a multidisciplinary field of study, presents numerous opportunities for researchers to develop new ideas and create knowledge, particularly in terms of facilitating the use of technology, promoting sustainable environmental practices, and utilizing inclusive governance approaches.

This paper presents findings from two related studies investigating the relationship between evolution knowledge and various influencing factors, notably religious affiliation, religiosity, and evolution acceptance. Utilizing a nationwide survey study and a focused classroom study, we explored the differences in evolution knowledge agreement among individuals with different religious identifications. The nationwide study sampled 827 respondents from the United States, comprising those who identified with a Judeo-Christian religion and those who identified as agnostic/atheistic. Agnostic/atheistic respondents demonstrated notably higher evolution knowledge agreement compared to their Judeo-Christian counterparts. Structural equation modeling confirmed that evolution knowledge agreement significantly predicted acceptance within both groups. Aiming to further investigate this phenomenon, the classroom study involved non-major introductory biology students in a religiously homogeneous institution. Altering survey question wording to mitigate potential conflict revealed a substantial increase in measured evolution knowledge agreement among highly religious Christian students simply by prefacing questions with "according to science." This finding suggests that the gap between their endorsement of evolution knowledge and acceptance may be partly due to respondents intentionally or unintentionally masking their true understanding to align with their religious beliefs. Overall, this study presents evidence suggesting that evolution knowledge may be conflated with acceptance, highlighting the importance of nuanced approaches to addressing evolution acceptance within diverse communities.

Abstract Background Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a major public health problem affecting women of reproductive age globally. Prevalence remains high in low-income regions, including Nigeria, where rural women experience higher rates. IPV is linked to physical, emotional, and sexual harm with severe health consequences. Despite legal efforts, rural–urban disparities persist, requiring deeper investigation to its prevalence and associated factors. Methods The study used data from the 2024 Nigerian Demographic and Health Survey, which included a weighted sample of 20,295 women of reproductive age randomly selected for the IPV module in the analysis. The dependent variable, intimate partner violence, was categorized into three different patterns, namely, physical, emotional, and sexual violence. Analysis was performed using STATA version 17. Binary logistic regression was applied to identify factors associated with the patterns of IPV. Results The result showed that 22.03% and 22.6% of women experience any form of IPV in urban and rural areas, respectively. Emotional IPV was the most prevalent of the partner violence experienced by women in urban (17.25%) and rural areas (18.2%), while sexual IPV showed the lowest prevalence of experience of partner violence, with 2.89% and 3.71% from urban and rural areas, respectively. Factors associated with physical IPV included marital status, parity, religion, ethnicity, region, husband’s education, family type, and spouse employment status. For emotional intimate partner violence, age, educational level, marital status, parity, religion, ethnicity, region, and family type were identified as factors. The study also revealed that marital status, employment status, religion, ethnicity, region, zone, and spouse employment status were factors associated with sexual IPV. Conclusion IPV remains substantial, particularly in rural settings. Identified individual and household factors emphasize the need for tailored, context-specific strategies to mitigate disparities and protect women’s health.

Abstract While remaining at and returning to work are clearly complex issues in multiple sclerosis (MS), in which many aspects (physical, psychological and relational, as well as personal resources such as coping strategies) can play a key role, there is still room for potential interventions. This study aimed to identify and describe profiles of workers with MS (wwMS), considering specific work-related domains, namely, work-related difficulties, anxiety and depressive symptoms, and coping strategies. A cross-sectional online survey of wwMS was conducted in Italy. Hierarchical cluster analysis was performed using the Ward method followed by k-means cluster analysis. In total, 209 workers with MS were included in the analysis. We identified four profiles: profile 1 had low work difficulties, low depressive symptoms and mild anxiety, with a moderate tendency to use ‘problem focus’ and ‘positive attitude’ and a mild tendency to use ‘social support’ as coping strategies (n = 82, 39.2%); profile 2 had low-to-mild work difficulties, mild anxiety and low depressive symptoms, with a high tendency to use ‘positive attitude’ and ‘religion’, moderate use of ‘problem focus’ and ‘social support’, and mild use of ‘denial’ (n = 38, 18.7%); profile 3 had low-to-mild work difficulties, moderate anxiety and depressive symptoms, with a mild tendency to use ‘problem focus’, ‘positive attitude’, ‘religion’, ‘social support’ and ‘denial’ as coping strategies (n = 50, 23.9%); profile 4 had mild-to-moderate work difficulties, moderate anxiety and depressive symptoms, with a moderate tendency to use ‘problem focus’ and ‘positive attitude’, and a mild tendency to use ‘social support’ and ‘denial’ as coping strategies (n = 39, 18.7%). Identifying profiles of workers with a chronic and progressive disability such as MS may lead to the development of personalised interventions.

Research Problem: Women’s activism through social media in South Asia, particularly in Sri Lanka and Afghanistan, is shaped by a complex interplay of religion, public policy, and socio-political contexts. While social media offers opportunities for empowerment and advocacy, its role remains contested due to societal barriers, political constraints, and religious influences. Research Purposes: This study aims to explore the dynamics of women’s online activism in Sri Lanka and Afghanistan, examining how socio-economic, political, and religious factors influence their digital engagement. It seeks to identify key challenges and highlight the comparative impact of social media on women’s advocacy in these two countries. Research Methods: The study employs a qualitative approach, using content analysis of secondary data, including reports, academic studies, and media articles. Comparative analysis is applied to evaluate the socio-political and religious factors shaping women’s digital activism in Sri Lanka and Afghanistan. Results and Discussion: In Sri Lanka, women benefit from higher literacy rates and a relatively open societal structure, enabling them to use social media effectively for addressing issues like corruption and economic mismanagement. However, ethnic and religious divisions limit cohesive activism. In Afghanistan, women demonstrate resilience by leveraging platforms like Facebook and WhatsApp despite facing severe socio-religious constraints and the Taliban’s repressive policies. The analysis underscores the critical role of social media as both a tool for advocacy and a contested space for control and suppression. Research Implications and Contributions: The study highlights the necessity of addressing structural barriers to enhance women’s digital participation. Regional collaboration, improved digital literacy, and international advocacy are recommended to amplify women’s voices in both countries. The findings contribute to the broader discourse on the intersection of religion, public policy, and digital activism, providing insights for policymakers and activists working toward inclusive social progress.

Abstract Background Sexual coercion is one of the major public health concerns globally. This is even more worrying among young people with disabilities (YPWDs). This study assessed the prevalence and factors associated with sexual coercion among in-school young people with disabilities in Ghana. Methods Using a cross-sectional study design, pre-tested questionnaires were used to collect data from 979 YPWDs in 15 special schools for the visually and hearing impaired in Ghana. Sexual coercion was the outcome variable. Both descriptive (frequencies and percentages) and inferential analysis (binary logistic regression) were conducted. Results About 68% reported that they had been sexually coerced at some point in their lifetime. This was higher among males (69.9%) compared to females (66.8%). Those aged 15–19 (72.19%) had the highest prevalence compared to those aged 20–24 (61.74%). YPWDs in Junior High School [JHS] [aOR = 1.722; CI = 1.227,2.417], and those in the coastal zone [aOR = 1.616; CI = 1.068,2.443] had higher odds of being coerced. However, those belonging to the Islamic religion [aOR = 0.266; CI = 0.0764,0.928] and the visually impaired [aOR = 0.477; CI = 0.318,0.716] had lower odds of being coerced compared to those with no religion, and the hearing impaired, respectively. Conclusion There is a relatively high prevalence of sexual coercion among in- school YPWDs in Ghana. This is significantly associated with level of education, ecological zone, religion, and the type of disability. This calls for a concerted effort by policy makers such as the Ghana Education Service, Ghana Federation of the Disabled, Ministry of Education, Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection to intensify sex education and put in pragmatic steps to halt this serious public health issue.

Background Religion and its exercise are among the most sensitive discourses in different parts of the world, especially in Nigeria. The constitution and other laws ensure citizens are afforded basic human rights of which religious rights are included and yet regulated. There are questions of interpretation as to the extent to which such rights can be enjoyed and the efficacy of both the legal and institutional frameworks protecting religious rights in Nigeria. Methods This article utilises a doctrinal legal research approach utilising existing literature, statutes, and laws enacted towards the protection of religious rights in Nigeria with the consideration of primary and secondary sources of statutes including the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended), judicial precedents, International Conventions, law textbooks, and peer-reviewed journals. A comparative analysis of Nigeria, Tunisia, Algeria, Turkey and Kazakhstan was done to gain perspectives on balancing conflicting interests in light of Nigeria’s heterogeneous status. As part of the contribution to knowledge, a hybrid model for mitigating the socio-legal effect of the usage of hijab in Nigeria’s public institutions is presented to further enrich Nigeria’s jurisprudence. A hybrid model is an approach that combines different sources or methodologies by integrating two or more distinct frameworks to leverage their strengths and effectively address specific needs or challenges. It is utilized to achieve synergy and maximize outcomes by blending diverse legal approaches in law. Results Nigeria, being a multi-ethnic and multi-religious state, demonstrates that the government must protect the public interests as it relates to religious rights regardless of faith or religion. The study reveals that the current legal approach without further legislative intervention on religious issues will be inadequate to address the problem. Therefore, this study presents a hybrid model for mitigating the socio-legal effect of the usage of hijab in Nigeria’s public institutions to avoid harm and further enrich Nigeria’s jurisprudence. Conclusions This study concludes by emphasizing the inadequacy of Nigeria’s legal and institutional frameworks regarding the protection of religious rights and the right to wear hijab in public institutions. Consequently, reform is deemed necessary.

Family caregivers, especially in Asian countries, have a profound role in caring for a sick family member. However, there are wide variations between the Asian and western world in terms of culture and facilities. Therefore, the problems and needs of family caregivers between those two regions may also be distinct, and it is important to explore and elaborate based on our empirical evidence. In Indonesia, motives and values in caregiving and religion become the wheel-power of the family caregivers in providing care. This affects action and consequences for caregivers. This paper attempts to elaborate on common ethical dilemmas that usually face by family caregivers in Indonesia. Unfortunately, family caregivers typically are not prepared to make those challenging decisions. Therefore, we recommend not only that family caregivers need to be involved in the caring process, but also their issues and ethical dilemmas should be assessed and addressed by health care professionals, especially nurses, who have the most frequent contact with patient and family caregiver.

Abstract: The development of Islamic boarding schools and madrasas in Indonesia cannot be separated from the political education policy of the government that is currently in power. Through a literature study, this study intends to reveal how the form of education politics carried out by the government towards these two institutions. The theoretical debate on education politics during the Old Order begins the explanation of this study. Then, the debate during the New Order is discussed, and the debate related to the Reformation era is discussed after that. This study illustrates that despite the politicization of Islamic boarding schools and madrasas, these indigenous Indonesian educational institutions must be preserved and their development should be considered. Furthermore, Islamic boarding schools and madrasas are important indicators for the progress of the religion and the nation. By looking at the realities of advanced education today, Islamic boarding schools and madrasas are a reflection of the superiority of scientific, intellectual, and cultural achievements. The government as a policymaker should provide full political support so that Islamic boarding schools and madrasas can compete at the world level. الملخص: لا يمكن فصل تطوير المدارس الداخلية الإسلامية والمدارس الدينية في إندونيسيا عن سياسة التعليم السياسي للحكومة التي تتولى السلطة حاليًا. تهدف هذه الدراسة ، من خلال دراسة أدبية ، إلى الكشف عن شكل السياسة التربوية التي تنفذها الحكومة تجاه هاتين المؤسستين. سيبدأ النقاش النظري حول سياسات التعليم في عهد النظام القديم في شرح هذه الدراسة ، ثم يتبعها في عهد النظام الجديد ، وينتهي خلال فترة الإصلاح. توضح هذه الدراسة أنه على الرغم من تسييس المدارس الداخلية الإسلامية والمدارس الدينية ، يجب الحفاظ على هذه المؤسسات التعليمية الإندونيسية الأصلية والنظر في تطويرها. علاوة على ذلك ، فإن المدارس الداخلية الإسلامية هي مؤشرات مهمة لتقدم الدين والأمة. بالنظر إلى واقع التعليم المتقدم حاليًا ، فإن المدارس الداخلية الإسلامية والمدارس الإسلامية هي انعكاس لتفوق الإنجازات العلمية والفكرية والثقافية. يجب على الحكومة كصانع للسياسة أن تقدم الدعم السياسي الكامل حتى تتمكن المدارس الداخلية الإسلامية والمدارس الإسلامية من المنافسة على المستوى العالمي. Abstrak: Perkembangan Pesantren dan madrasah di Indonesia tidak dapat dipisahkan dari kebijakan politik pendidikan pemerintah yang sedang berkuasa. Melalui studi literatur, kajian ini hendak mengungkap bagaimana bentuk politik pendidikan yang dijalankan oleh pemerintah terhadap kedua lembaga tersebut. Perdebatan teoritis politik pendidikan pada masa Orde Lama akan mengawali penjelasan kajian ini, kemudian disusul pada masa Orde Baru, dan diakhiri pada masa Reformasi. Kajian ini memberikan gambaran bahwa sekalipun terjadi politisasi terhadap pesantren dan madrasah, akan tetapi lembaga pendidikan asli Indonesia ini harus tetap dilestarikan dan diperhatikan perkembangannya. Selanjutnya, pesantren dan madrasah merupakan salah satu indikator penting untuk kemajuan agama dan bangsa. Dengan melihat realitas pendidikan yang sudah maju saat ini, pesantren dan madrasah adalah cerminan dari keunggulan capaian keilmuan, intelektual dan kultural. Pemerintah sebagai pemangku kebijakans udah sepatutnya memberikan dukungan penuh secara politik agar pesantren dan madrasah bisa bersaing di tingkat dunia.

Resumo Lida sem atenção, a avaliação do Poema de Parmênides por Nietzsche corre o risco de frustrar, mais do que estimular, os leitores não-iniciados em Filosofia. Pois, nela o filósofo não só ignora a pesquisa sua contemporânea sobre o Eleata, como insere o seu pensamento numa polêmica antiracionalista, recheada de equívocos e intuições infundadas. É nosso objetivo aqui tentar restituir credibilidade a esta avaliação, apontando as linhas que orientam o diálogo do crítico com o seu objeto tanto para o senso-comum, como para o seu próprio pensamento.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the government was requiring to be able to implement a learning system by the applicable health protocol. Based on this, the government must change the learning system from face-to-face meetings to online learning. Technology that is rapidly growing can be advantaged to fully support the online learning process so that the Ministry of Religion Affairs makes an innovation, namely e-learning madrasah media for simplifying the online learning process for all madrasah in Indonesia. This study aims to make readers know the level of effectiveness of online learning using madrasah e-learning to optimize the student understanding of mathematics. This study used a survey method that was conducted online with a quantitative descriptive research type. The results are that online mathematics learning activities using e-learning madrasah are quite efficient, considering that there are still constraints on the ownership of students' equipment and inadequate internet networks, and students are not maximal in absorbing the material provided. However, the advantages we found were the full support provided by the school, teachers, and parents for ongoing learning. Also, learning mathematics using madrasah e-learning is efficient and flexible so that students can carry out learning well.
