RESEARCH REVIEW International Journal of Multidisciplinary http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm <p>RESEARCH REVIEW International Journal of Multidisciplinary (RRIJM) is an international Double-blind peer-reviewed [refereed] open access online journal. Too often a journal’s decision to publish a paper is dominated by what the editor/s think is interesting and will gain greater readership-both of which are subjective judgments and lead to decisions which are frustrating and delay the publication of your work. RRIJM will rigorously peer-review your submissions and publish all papers that are judged to be technically sound. Judgments about the importance of any particular paper are then made after publication by the readership (who are the most qualified to determine what is of interest to them).</p> <p>Most conventional journals publish papers from tightly defined subject areas, making it more difficult for readers from other disciplines to read them. RRIJM has no such barriers, which helps your research reach the entire scientific community.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Journal Start Year: </strong>January-2016</li> <li><strong>Title: </strong>RESEARCH REVIEW International Multidisciplinary Research Journal</li> <li>ISSN: <strong>2455-3085 (Online)</strong></li> <li><strong>Impact Factor: 6.93</strong></li> <li>Crossref DOI: <a href="https://doi.org/10.31305/rrijm"><strong>10.31305/rrijm</strong></a></li> <li>Frequency of Publication: <strong>Monthly</strong> [12 issues per year]</li> <li>Languages: <strong>English/Hindi/Gujarat</strong> [Multiple Languages]</li> <li>Accessibility: <strong>Open Access</strong></li> <li><strong>Peer Review Process: </strong>Double Blind Peer Review Process</li> <li><strong>Subject: </strong>Multidisciplinary</li> <li><strong>Plagiarism Checker: </strong>Turnitin (License)</li> <li><strong>Publication Format: </strong>Online</li> <li><strong>Contact No.: </strong>+91- 99784 40833</li> <li><strong>Email: </strong>editor@rrjournals.com</li> <li><strong>Old Website: <a href="https://old.rrjournals.com/">https://old.rrjournals.com/</a></strong></li> <li><strong>New Website: <a href="https://rrjournals.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://rrjournals.com/ </a></strong></li> <li><strong>Address: </strong>15, Kalyan Nagar, Shahpur, Ahmedabad, Gujarat 380001</li> </ul> <p><strong>Key Features of RRIJM</strong></p> <ul> <li>Journal was listed in <strong>UGC</strong> with <a href="https://www.ugc.ac.in/pdfnews/5283580_UGC-Cancelled-List.pdf"><strong>Journal No. 44945 (Till 14-06-2019)</strong></a></li> <li>Journal Publishes online every month</li> <li>Online article submission</li> <li>Standard peer review process</li> </ul> en-US <p>This is an open access article under the CC BY-NC-ND license<a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/"> Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial 4.0 International (CC BY-NC 4.0).</a></p> editor@rrjournals.com (Mr. P P Kumavat) editor.rrjournals@gmail.com (Mrs. Asha) Fri, 10 Jan 2025 11:47:17 -0500 OJS 3.3.0.8 http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss 60 Problems Arising from Urbanization in India: A Sociological Perspective http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1695 <p>Urbanization is often described as a symbol of development. It is, in essence, the process by which cities undergo significant growth and expansion, accompanied by the centralization of economic activities. One key driver of urbanization is the rapid increase in population and the resulting concentration of people in cities due to better planning opportunities. Additionally, industries, transportation, and related activities have a profound impact, which in turn adversely affects the environment. While rural areas symbolize pure and clean environments, urbanization is associated with environmental pollution, leading to ecological crises. Initially, cities were small, their expansion was limited, and the number of economic activities was minimal, causing no significant environmental threats. However, over time, cities not only expanded but did so in an unplanned manner. The centralization of industries accompanied advancements in technology and technical development. This led to the evolution of cities into metropolises, creating a web of transportation networks. Today, the larger the city, the more severe the problems it faces, with these issues growing increasingly critical each day.</p> <p><strong>Abstract in Hindi Language:</strong> शहरीकरण को विकास के प्रतीक के रूप में वर्णित किया जाता है। वास्तव में शहरीकरण वह प्रक्रिया है जिसके अंतर्गत नगरों का अधिकतम विकास एवं विस्तार हो रहा है तथा आर्थिक क्रियाओं का केन्द्रीकरण हो रहा है। शहरीकरण का एक कारण जनसंख्या की तीव्र वृद्धि एवं नगरों में नियोजन की अधिक संभावनाओं के कारण उनमें जनसंख्या का केन्द्रीकरण होता जा रहा है, साथ ही उद्योग, परिवहन आदि का भी वहाँ अत्यधिक प्रभाव होता है, फलस्वरूप पर्यावरण पर उसका विपरीत प्रभाव पड़ता है। वास्तव में ग्रामीण अंचल जहाँ शुद्ध पर्यावरण का प्रतीक है वहीं नगरीय या शहरीकरण के साथ पर्यावरण प्रदूषण जुड़ गया है, जो पारिस्थितिक-संकट का कारण बनता है। प्रारंभ में नगर छोटे थे, उनका विस्तार सीमित था और वहाँ संपादित होने वाली आर्थिक क्रियाओं की संख्या सीमित थी जिसके परिणामस्वरूप पर्यावरण को किसी प्रकार का संकट नहीं था। किंतु कालांतर में नगरों का न केवल विकास अपितु अनियोजित विकास होने लगा तथा यहाँ प्रौद्योगिकी एवं तकनीकी विकास के साथ ही उद्योगों का केन्द्रीकरण होना प्रारंभ हो गया। नगरों से महानगर विकसित हो गये, परिवहन के विविध साधनों का जाल इनमें फैल गया और आज विश्व के जो नगर जितने अधिक बड़े हैं, उतने ही अधिक समस्याओं से ग्रसित हैं और ये समस्यायें दिन-प्रतिदिन गंभीर होती जा रही हैं।</p> <p><strong>Keywords:</strong> भारत, नगरीकरण, पारिस्थितिक-संकट, नियोजन।</p> Dr. Alka Bohra Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1695 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 Establishment of a Limited Liability Company after the Effectiveness of Law Number 6 of 2023 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1700 <p>This study aims to analyze whether there is dualism in the establishment of a limited liability company after the enactment of Law Number 6 of 2023, to analyze the application of GCG principles to individual PTs, and to analyze the responsibilities of individual PTs and this type of research is a type of normative legal research while the research approach taken is the Statutory Approach and the Conceptual Approach. The results of the study show that the emergence and validity of the UUCK does not result in legal dualism between the UUCK and the UUPT, this is because the Job Creation Law only expands, changes and adds several articles that were previously not regulated by the Limited Liability Company Law, then the governance of individual companies, has regulations to require directors to carry out governance of individual companies in the form of an obligation to make and report financial reports to the relevant minister which is used as a database of individual company profiles and the basis for consideration in determining the criteria for individual companies and the principles of separate entity, limited liability, piercing the corporate veil (limited liability) still apply to limited companies which are individual companies.</p> Dinul Apriliana Akbar, Zainal Asikin, Eduardus bayo Sili Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1700 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 Examining the Impact of Capital Structure on the Profitability of the Saudi Banking Sector: A Panel Least Squares (PLS) Approach http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1701 <p>This study examines the influence of capital structure and other financial variables on the profitability of Saudi Arabia's banking sector during the period 2010 to 2021. The author used a panel least squares (PLS) model, utilizing 96 observations derived from eight banks. Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), Financial Leverage (FL), Net Income (NI), Interest Expended to Interest Earned (IEIE), and Interest Income to Total Fund (IITF) are some of the independent variables that affect Rate of Return on Assets (ROA). The findings reveal that DAR positively impacts profitability and reflects effective debt utilization within assets, while DER negatively affects profitability due to the risks of excessive reliance on equity-financed debt. FL also has a strong positive influence, emphasizing the importance of leverage, and NI, though marginally impactful, contributes positively. IEIE shows a slight positive effect, indicating the need for efficient cost management, whereas IITF exhibits a negative but insignificant relationship, suggesting inefficiencies in interest income during the period. The model explains 83.1% of the variation in ROA, emphasizing the collective relevance of these factors. The study underscores the importance of balanced debt and equity management, efficient use of financial instruments, and cost optimization to enhance profitability and sustain financial stability in Saudi banks.</p> Dr. Seraj Bahrawe Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1701 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 Unilateral Cancellation by the Buyer in Cash on Delivery (COD) Transactions Via E-Commerce according to Indonesian Positive Law http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1703 <p>This study aims to analyze mechanism of responsibility in unilateral cancellation by the buyer in COD transactions through <em>e-commerce </em>according to positive Indonesian law and analyzing legal protection for sellers in the event of unilateral cancellation by the buyer in COD transactions through <em>e-commerce </em>according to positive Indonesian law. By using the normative legal research method. Research results Research results Showing the results of the study Mechanism of responsibility in unilateral cancellation by the buyer in COD transactions through e-commerce according to positive Indonesian law, Basically, the validity of a sales and purchase agreement with a COD payment system is subject to Article 1320 of the Civil Code. In the event that the buyer refuses to pay for the package of goods that have been ordered through <em>the marketplace </em>using the COD payment system, the buyer is considered to have committed a breach of contract because the buyer has not fulfilled the performance as agreed in the agreement then Legal protection for the seller in the event of unilateral cancellation by the buyer in a COD transaction through e-commerce according to positive Indonesian law, Legal protection for sellers who experience losses in <em>online shop agreements </em>due to the actions of buyers is regulated in Article 6 of Law Number 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection concerning the rights of business actors, when the buyer's actions use false data, the seller is also protected by Article 45 A of Law Number 19 of 2016 concerning amendments to Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Information and Electronic Transactions. Sellers who experience losses due to fraud committed by buyers are also protected by Article 378 of the Criminal Code concerning fraud. The seller's legal action for the losses he experiences in <em>online shops </em>is dispute resolution outside the court as an initial step. When the lawsuit has been registered in court, the judge is obliged to first provide the seller and buyer with the opportunity to go through the mediation process. If an agreement is not reached during the mediation process, the seller can sue the buyer based on Article 1243 of the Civil Code regarding compensation for losses, costs and interest during transactions in <em>online shops.</em></p> Lalu Yanuar Rinaldy, Salim HS, Lalu Wira Pria Suhartana Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1703 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 The Development of the Spirit of Universal Brotherhood in Sanskrit Literature http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1706 <p>Sanskrit is the most ancient language among all the languages of the world. Its Vedic form is renowned for its antiquity, richness, and completeness. Indian culture is one of the oldest cultures in the world. The core of both the Sanskrit language and Indian culture is the idea of universal brotherhood. This reflects the thought of considering the entire living world as one family. The concept of universal brotherhood is a contribution of Sanskrit literature and Indian culture. This spirit now represents the entire world and all languages in modern times. In the present era, most countries have given this concept a central place in their governing principles.</p> <p><strong>Abstract in Hindi Language:</strong> संस्कृत भाषा विश्व की समस्त भाषाओं में प्राचीनतम भाषा है। इसका वैदिक स्वरूप अपनी प्राचीनता, सरसता एवं पूर्णता के लिए विश्व प्रसिद्ध है। भारतीय संस्कृति विश्व की प्राचीनतम संस्कृतियों में से एक है। संस्कृत भाषा और भारतीय संस्कृति का मूल केंद्र विश्वबंधुत्व की भावना है। यह संपूर्ण जीव जगत को एक ही परिवार मानकर चलने की सोच को प्रकट करती है। विश्वबंधुत्व का विचार सर्वप्रथम संस्कृत साहित्य और भारतीय संस्कृति की देन है। यह भावना आधुनिक समय में संपूर्ण विश्व का और सभी भाषाओं का प्रतिनिधित्व कर रही है। वर्तमान समय में अधिकांश देशों द्वारा अपने शासन संबंधी सिद्धांतों में इसे मुख्य विषय के रूप में स्थान दिया जा रहा है।</p> <p><strong>Keywords:</strong> संस्कृत, प्राचीनतम, विश्वविश्रत, जीव जगत, शासन, आदर्ष, साहित्य, आधुनिक, अन्तर्राष्ट्रीय, प्रतिनिधित्व</p> Govind Prasad Pathak Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1706 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 The Right to Privacy in India: Historical Evolution and Contemporary Challenges in the Digital Age http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1709 <p>Privacy in India has seeped into the understanding and dimension of rights and liberties recognized by law and the social, legal and technological dimensions associated with it. These represent a timeline of the tussle between age-old values of the Indian context and present contemporary issues, the foundation on which the evolution of privacy in the nation is built. The advent of new digital technologies, including artificial intelligence, biometrics and the Internet of Things, is permeating even the most intimate, private and public facets of everyday life — opening the door to complexities in the protection of personal data that are perhaps more interwoven than those seen in scope and scale. And while this empowered connectivity has no precedent, these advancements have exposed vulnerabilities in data security, ethical governance and individual autonomy. This is a study on privacy in India, surveying its evolution, contemporary debates and prospects, and analyzing different judicial readings and legislation. Here, significant cases such as Kharak Singh v. State of Uttar Pradesh, 1964 (1) AIR SC 332 and Justice K.S. Puttaswamy (Retd.) Union of India to the recognition of privacy as a fundamental part of the right to life and liberty guaranteed under Article 21 of the Constitution of India. This paved the way for legislative changes, such as the Digital Personal Data Protection Bill of 2023, to govern personal data processing for users' transparency and empowerment. Conversely, the Act has posed challenges regarding data localization requirements and compliance obligations, especially for multinational entities. Such national and technological environments suggest a new wave of privacy threats as data breaches, corporate surveillance, and insecure digital ecosystems become ubiquitous in the digital environment. This study explores the consequences of these attacks, with a focus on their influence on democracy, individual freedoms, and public trust. Major data breach case studies demonstrate the need for more robust cybersecurity measures, better enforcement mechanisms, and higher public awareness to address the weaknesses of digital transformation. The study also addresses potential ethical challenges related to emerging surveillance technologies and the growing use of data-driven ecosystems. This post advocates for privacy-by-design principles, in which privacy measures are introduced during tech development from its early stages. It highlights the need for clear and accessible privacy policies that enable users. Indeed, it highlights the necessity for an agile legal landscape that can evolve in pace with the swift currents of technological advancements, while navigating the delicate dance of upholding privacy rights and facilitating societal forward momentum.</p> Priyanka Dalal , Dr. Richa Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1709 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 From the Demand for Information to the Right to Information: A Study http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1711 <p>Rights provide direction for the upliftment of human social life, and in their absence, individuals cannot achieve complete development. Therefore, rights play a crucial role in the holistic development of human life. The right to access information is a fundamental right of every individual. However, its full realization has only been achieved in societies that are fully aware and vigilant. Today, popular sovereignty exists in all states across the world, where the ultimate power rests with the citizens. Citizens exercise this power through voting. Since the authority to govern has been entrusted to certain individuals by the people themselves, it is the citizens' fundamental right to know what the government is doing for them. This very idea led to the emergence of the Right to Information (RTI).</p> <p><strong>Abstract in Hindi Language:</strong> अधिकार ही मानव के सामाजिक जीवन को उन्नयन की दिषा प्रदान करते हैं जिनके अभाव में मानव अपना पूर्ण विकास नहीं कर सकता है। अतः मानव जीवन के पूर्ण विकास के लिए अधिकार सहायक हैं। सूचना पाने का मनुष्य को मौलिक अधिकार है परंतु इसकी पूर्ण अभिव्यक्ति केवल उन्हीं समाजों में मिल सकी जो पूर्ण रूप से सजग है। आज विष्व में सभी राज्यों को लोकप्रिय सम्प्रभुता का वास है जिसमें अन्तिम शक्ति नागरिकों के पास होती है। नागरिक मतदान के माध्यम से इस शक्ति का प्रयोग करते हैं जिन व्यक्तियों को सत्ता या शासन करने की शक्ति स्वयं नागरिकों ने सौंपी है तो उन नागरिकों को यह जानने का पूर्ण अधिकार है कि वह शासन उनके लिए क्या कर रहा है। इसी विचार ने सूचना के अधिकार को जन्म दिया।</p> <p><strong>Keywords</strong>: मूल अधिकार, सामाजिक, उन्नयन, जीवन, सजग, साक्षरता, पूर्णरूपेण, सूचना, संविधान, जन्म, सम्प्रभुता, लोकप्रिय, शासन, विधि</p> Dulhe Ram Mahavar Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1711 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 Perspectives on Human Behavior http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1714 <p>Human behavior has always been intriguing, differing with persons and situations. This unpredictability is contributed by his nature, personality, and thinking process. Behavior is dictated by the interplay of a complex set of factors based primarily on need fulfillment. Every individual strives to fulfill needs but to a varying extent. These needs exist in dyads and emerge in systematic ascendancy with increased chronological age. Behavior results from the struggle between the choice of these dyadic needs, as to which is to be given primacy and which could be set aside or regulated. The situation is compounded by the fact that the next set of dyadic needs emerge to gain supremacy even before the earlier set of needs are done away with. Behavior is the result of the needs that emerge, the individual's choice for the fulfillment, the degree to which they are met, the extent of carryover of the unmet needs, and the accumulating " need-worry ". That is to say, hypothetically every individual undergoes a transition in life as he completes one set of needs. It is an irony that a real completion rarely takes place. Each of these stages of emerging dyadic needs at its onset appears to be a " little world "in which the individual is engulfed and gets focused on the struggle to attain. Five such little worlds are found to exist in the history of life of an individual. This discourse is an attempt to portray human behavior through the lens of need fulfillment as a perspective. The dyadic needs that emerge in stages at different times in life span, their significance, sub-components, and implications for fulfillment are discussed. Data has been collected through in-depth interviews from a select sample of diverse age groups and social backgrounds.</p> P.M.Suresh Kumar Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1714 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 Education as an aspect of Development http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1719 <p>Education is a fundamental aspect of development, playing a pivotal role in the social, economic and political growth of individuals and societies.

These two areas were chosen as case studies because they have similar goals in encouraging economic growth through fiscal incentives and more flexible regulations for investors. In this study, the method used is a qualitative approach with comparative descriptive analysis to identify differences and similarities in aspects of business regulations, investment policies, and legal protection for business actors in both areas. The results of the study show that although both areas offer policies that are beneficial to investors, there are significant differences in terms of legal structure, implementation of regulations, and supervision of compliance with the laws applied. The Mandalika Special Economic Zone has policies that focus more on developing tourism and the creative economy sector, while the Incheon IFEZ emphasizes the high-tech sector and the manufacturing industry. In addition, the comparison of taxation policies and fiscal incentives is also an aspect that distinguishes the two areas. This study is expected to contribute to the development of economic policies in Indonesia, especially in the context of managing Special Economic Zones, as well as providing insight for other countries interested in developing similar economic zones.</p> Joo Mea Lee, Lalu Muhammad Hayyan ul Haq, Eduardus Bayo Sili Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1721 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 The Inclusion Imperative: Building LGBTI-Friendly Work Environments http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1726 <p>This research explores strategies to integrate LGBTI workers into workplaces while addressing discrimination and fostering inclusion. Workplace diversity and inclusivity are critical for enhancing employee morale, innovation, and organizational performance, yet LGBTI employees often face unique challenges, including bias, harassment, and limited representation. To address these issues, this study adopts a mixed-methods approach, combining surveys, interviews, and case studies from inclusive organizations globally. Findings reveal key barriers to inclusion, such as the absence of comprehensive anti-discrimination policies, cultural resistance, and limited training on LGBTI issues. However, organizations that implement targeted measures, including anti-discrimination policies, Employee Resource Groups (ERGs), and unconscious bias training, demonstrate significant improvements in fostering an inclusive environment. Furthermore, visible leadership support and structured mentorship programs are highlighted as essential components for successful integration. This research emphasizes the importance of tailored inclusivity strategies, balancing global standards with sensitivity to local cultural contexts. The study concludes with actionable recommendations for organizations to promote equity, including the development of inclusive policies, regular diversity training, and the establishment of safe spaces. By addressing these challenges, organizations can unlock the full potential of their workforce, creating a culture of respect and belonging for all employees.</p> Reetika Dagar, Khushi Shrotiya Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1726 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 Evaluating the Impact of Social Security Schemes on Socioeconomic Development: A Systematic Literature Review http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1733 <p>This systematic literature review explores the impact of social security schemes, social protection policies, and poverty alleviation initiatives on economic welfare and policy outcomes.

It requires enough experience also does not happen magically. It is process which involves through preparation, re-evaluation and careful expression of ideas and not simply putting words on paper. Writing occupies an important place in the whole communication process and is put to use in almost all activities of our lives. Writing involves both auditory and visual skills and helps to develop memory. It promotes individual activity and encourages independence in thought and expression. Speaking is spontaneous in most cases, whereas writing requires correctness of grammar, appropriacy in expression and requires comprehension on the reader’s part. It is a systematic process involving presentation of ideas in a precise manner. This paper focuses on effective use of teaching strategies to develop writing skills of secondary school students in English. This paper also focuses on four basic skills, attitude about writing ability, characteristics of good handwriting, and exercises for developing writing skills.</p> Malek Sabnurbanu Maiyuddin Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1736 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 Current Practices and Challenges in Simulation Based Learning: Nurse Educators’ perspective http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1737 <p><strong>Background</strong>: Simulation based learning (SBL) has emerged as a transformative approach in nursing education, offering safe and controlled environments for skill development, critical thinking and decision making.

Stress in moderation can improve motivation, physical performance, and environmental response. An increased risk of heart attack, stroke, ulcers, and mental illnesses like depression can result from excessive stress. A hostel is a place where people live away from their homes, usually at educational institutions. This study aimed to construct a stress measurement tool. To accomplish the purpose, convenient samples (70 boarders) were selected to collect data. Thereafter the draft stress tool of 32 items applied among the boarders. An item analysis was done to judge the quality of each item through t test. Finally, twenty-two items were kept in the final stress scale. To assess internal consistency of the stress scale, 260 hostel boarders were subjected to calculate reliability. Following the Cronbach Alpha method, the reliability score for stress is 0.75, which is highly significant. This study developed a stress scale for hostel boarders, assessing various stressors such as physical, behavioral, psychological, and emotional stress, allowing for stress assessment of both hostel and normal boarder.</p> Sonu Halder, Deb Prasad Sikdar Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1747 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 Determinants of Service Sector Growth in Haryana http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1748 <p>The faster growth in Service sector has been experienced by the Indian economy and most of the Indian states as well. The Services sector is a highly heterogeneous sector having varied activities. The contribution of service sector and its sub sectors varies in terms of their share to GSDP and in total employment. The present paper aims at determining the factors responsible for the rise of Service sector in Haryana. It explores the factors which affect the dynamism of change in the pattern of growth of Service sector in Haryana. The ARDL model has been used. The findings of the study show that (i) the value of Service GSDP is 0.46 which means that Service sector growth is propelled from within by 0.46%. It means that one percent rise in Service GSDP will boost up Service sector growth by 0.46% (ii) a relatively higher growth trend in income is the major factor for Service sector growth in Haryana (iii) Investment in infrastructure and fixed capital has led to growth of service output. To sum up, the determinants of Service sector growth in Haryana are- Commodity sector production, Exports, GSDP per capita and invested capital. All these shows significant relationship to the Service GSDP in the short and long period.</p> Dr. Anita Moudgil Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1748 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 Building Emotional Fortitude: The Interplay of Resilience, Self-Compassion, and Psychological Well-Being Among College Students http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1750 <p>College students deal with a range of personal, social, and academic obstacles that affect their psychological well-being (PWB). Self-compassion and resilience are recognized as crucial elements that shape mental health outcome. However, their combined effects on psychological well-being among college students require further exploration. The capacity to treat oneself with love, understanding, and acceptance when experiencing sadness, frustration, or failure is known as self-compassion. Individuals with resilience can maintain their mental and physical health while also being able to bounce back quickly from challenging circumstances. This review synthesizes the body of research on the association between college students' psychological well-being, self-compassion, and resilience. Students who possess resilience and self-compassion may be better able to manage their personal and academic stress. Through cognitive and interpersonal processes, for instance, strong trait resilience can lessen the symptoms of anxiety. Students in college’s total health depends critically on their psychological well-being, especially to handle obstacles at college. It aims to explore theoretical frameworks, empirical findings, and potential mechanisms linking these constructs.</p> Ms. Deeksha Sharma, Dr. Ratna Dixit Sharma Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1750 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 Thriving at Work and Beyond: A Review of Work-Life Balance, Job Satisfaction, and Life Satisfaction Among Modern Working Professionals http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1751 <p>In the current rapid and demanding work landscape, maintaining a harmonious blend between career and personal life is a significant issue for contemporary professionals. Work-life balance (WLB) has become more closely associated with both job satisfaction (JS) and general life fulfillment. However, the nature of these relationships and their underlying mechanisms require further exploration. As organizations and employees strive for sustainable work arrangements, grasping the interaction between these frameworks is crucial for enhancing employee well-being and productivity. This review highlights the significance of promoting work-life balance to improve job satisfaction and overall life contentment among contemporary professionals. Organizations need to establish policies that encourage work-life integration, including options for remote work, flexible hours, and initiatives focused on employee well-being. Workers who achieve a better work-life balance tend to report increased job satisfaction, lower stress levels, and improved overall well-being. Those who enjoy higher job satisfaction also indicate elevated levels of life satisfaction, emotional health, and general happiness.</p> Ms. Shubhangi Raghav, Dr. Ratna Dixit Sharma Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1751 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 Cyber Security and International Law: Government Transparency and Accountability through E-Government & Political Implications http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1752 <p>The paper tries to explain and elaborate on how cybersecurity will shift the course of diplomacy and how international law could influence the mode in which international legal interest is exercised. It also explores how powerful organizations, like the United Nations, can change their behaviour in regard to approaches and policy-making strategies. Through the latest steps toward digitalization, decision-making and judgments made in legal services take a radically different form, not only within national borders but also on a large scale in international law and order. The international legal framework of cybersecurity is amorphous, yet disparate implementations have evolved primarily in the European Union. Countries had always wanted to store their sensitive information in-house and had feared surrendering it to international regulatory bodies, citing sovereignty as the reason. This has resulted in shallow and inconsistent enactment and enforcement of cyber norms across states. The ICT for Peace Foundation is an international organization that promotes peace and security. The foundation believes that the use of technology would advance a regional or international legal framework for negotiations to have tools to create a workable world in resolving conflicts. As cyber threats increased, major players such as the UN were prompted to reconsider negotiation approaches, policy sets, and partnerships. By using cybersecurity as a tool for cooperation expansion, the advance of peace in cyberspace, and consequently, the implementation of legal norms that will encourage innovation while protecting states in global governance, these institutions can fulfill their purpose.</p> Dev Singh, Kumar Nagarjun Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1752 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 Assessing the Impact of Climate Change and Environmental Policies on Sustainable Development in Bihar http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1753 <p>This study assesses the impacts of climate change and the effectiveness of environmental policies in promoting sustainable development in Bihar, a state highly vulnerable to climate-related disruptions. Bihar's agricultural sector, a critical economic pillar, faces significant challenges due to erratic rainfall patterns, increased temperatures, and extreme weather events such as floods and droughts. The study investigates the direct and indirect effects of these climate shifts on agriculture, biodiversity, and water resources, highlighting the state's dependence on agriculture and the consequent risks to food security. The research also evaluates the role of key state policies, particularly the Bihar State Action Plan on Climate Change (SAPCC) and the Jal-Jeevan-Hariyali Abhiyan, in mitigating climate impacts and fostering climate resilience. While these policies aim to promote sustainable development through afforestation, water conservation, and the adoption of climate-resilient agricultural practices, their implementation faces challenges, including limited financial resources, institutional capacity, and interdepartmental coordination. Additionally, the study examines the ongoing threats to biodiversity in Bihar’s wildlife sanctuaries and protected areas due to climate change and human activities. The findings emphasize the need for stronger policy integration, increased community participation, and enhanced monitoring to address these challenges. Ultimately, the study proposes actionable recommendations for enhancing the effectiveness of climate adaptation strategies and achieving long-term environmental sustainability, aiming to balance economic growth with ecological conservation. These insights are crucial for guiding Bihar's transition to a more resilient and sustainable future in the face of climate change.</p> Madhav Anand Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1753 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 Understanding Blood Flow in Stenosed Arteries: Newtonian and Non-Newtonian Fluid Comparisons http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1755 <p>Understanding blood flow dynamics in stenosed arteries is crucial for advancing the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, particularly those related to atherosclerosis. This study compares blood flow characteristics in stenosed arteries modelled as Newtonian and Non-Newtonian fluids. Using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), we simulated blood flow through a tapered artery with 50% stenosis under both fluid assumptions. The results indicate that the Newtonian model, characterized by a parabolic velocity profile, leads to a higher pressure drop and greater wall shear stress compared to the Non-Newtonian model. The Non-Newtonian fluid, exhibiting shear-thinning behaviour, demonstrated a flatter velocity profile, a reduced pressure drop, and lower wall shear stress, particularly in the post-stenotic region. These findings suggest that Non-Newtonian fluid models more accurately replicate the hemodynamic conditions of stenosed arteries, potentially offering a protective effect against endothelial injury and plaque rupture. The results underscore the importance of considering the non-Newtonian nature of blood in the study of arterial diseases and the design of medical interventions.</p> Surabhi Singh, Sapna Ratan Shah Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1755 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 Earth and Equality: Ecofeminist Perspectives from the Central Himalayas of Uttarakhand http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1756 <p>Feminism is an ideological movement that aims to respect women's experiences, identities, knowledge, and powers and to make all women realise their full rights, which are gradually being assimilated even among the women of the third world. The new ideolical term eco-feminism is an insight that emerged in the 1970-1980 s in European countries, and is emerging all over the world as an ideological movement, as a powerful movement taking nature and the exploitation of women in parallel. Ecofeminism is an ecological critique of feminism. It opposes the patriarchal system that is based on the exploitation of women and the environment. It is a response to all the ideological dualities of nature being subservient to culture and woman being subservient to men. This paper is an attempt to explore the co-relationships, oppression and ideological responses of women's ecology in the central Himalayas, especially in Uttarakhand, and also to explore new dimensions of Eco feminine.</p> Dr. Sandeep Kumar, Mrs. Pooja Rani Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1756 Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500 Comparative Study of ‘-Ko’ and ‘-Ne’ Marker in Dative Construction of Delhi-Hindi http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1759 <p>This paper is the comparative study of ‘-ko’ and ‘-Ne’ markers in dative construction of Delhi-Hindi. Although it is well known that ‘-ko’ is the dative marker and ‘-ne’ is the ergative marker in Delhi-Hindi like Hindi-Urdu (Standard Hindi) but Delhi-Hindi also has another kind of construction i.e. ‘dative-substitution’. In dative-substitution construction, ergative ‘-ne’ marker is used in dative construction instead of dative ‘-ko’ marker. This paper explores the specific domains where this construction would be acceptable with respect to morpho-syntactic point of view. It also highlights the possible environment where ‘-Ne’ marker has shown similarities or differences with dative ‘-ko’ marker in Delhi-Hindi. Even it provides evidences to analysis whether this ‘-Ne’ marker is (un)able to substitute already existing ‘-ko’ dative marker in dative constructions. This type of construction is also available in Urdu (Butt, 2006).</p> Riya Singh Copyright (c) 2025 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 http://rrjournals.com/index.php/rrijm/article/view/1759 Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 -0500
