Abstract Objective This qualitative research aims to understand how Bangkok youths perceive social media usage effects on their physical, psychological, social and spiritual health. Methods A total of 74 Bangkok youths, aged 15–24 years old, divided according to each age and gender group participated in in-depth interviews and mobile phone search observations. Health impact was categorized into the four health aspects through content analysis according to sociological perspectives. Results Bangkok youths view social media to have both positive and negative effects on their health. Increased awareness of negative results was shown with increased age. While younger youths use social media for entertainment, older youths also use social media for self-development. Interests and degree of sensitivity varied among the genders. Conclusion Effective health education can only be achieved through future youth-centered research on social media usage based on age, gender and cultural variations.

Multifocal Recurrence

Medulloblastoma is the most common malignant brain tumor in pediatric patients. Leptomeningeal dissemination often occurs in the spinal canal and rarely into the supratentorial as an extra-axial lesion. This study followed an 8-year progression of multifocal medulloblastoma recurrence as supratentorial metastasis that mimics an intra-axial mass of the temporal lobe. Pathologic examination of the temporal mass showed densely packed small round blue cells that are distributed in a ribboning pattern with areas of necrosis, rosette formation, and mitosis. Ki-67 immunohistochemical staining of the tumor showed a high proliferation index of 40% and revealed positive results for synaptophysin and negative results for glial fibrillary acidic protein and β-catenin. A long follow-up is essential to diagnose the recurrence and elucidate the progression of medulloblastoma.

The lack of physicians is a serious problem in the Slovak Republic (SR More than 5,000 physicians will be missing in the health care system in the next two years. From the report on health care status in Slovakia, according to OECD (2017), the state of health care in the country achieves very negative results in the indicators related to the human and financial resources of the monitored sector (mortality of newborns, preventable and avoidable mortality, urgent traffic, and others). The study was based on the analysis of the labor market situation in the health care sector for the profession of physician in the SR to identify the state and future need of physicians working in Slovakia, find possible solutions to the identified situation and determine which pull and push factors are the most important. The contribution of the study will be based on the analysis to suggest the ways to facilitate the employment of foreign doctors in Slovakia. The problem of the lack of specialists was considered in two directions of solving it on account of the flow of specialists from other countries: stimulation in order for the foreign medical students to stay in the country after their studies; engagement of foreign qualified doctors. Real situation with doctor stuffing in the Slovak Republic was evaluated, the forecasts until 2022 were made, the proposals on improving the management in solving this problem at the state level were made.

Growth Hypothesis

This study attempts to solve the publication bias suggested by recent review articles in the tourism-growth literature. Publication bias is the tendency to report favourable and significant results. Method and data triangulation, and the Solow-Swan model are applied. A sample from 1995 to 2018 is considered with Tonga as a case study. The approach consists of multiple methods, data frequencies, exchange rates, structural breaks, and an overall tourism index developed using principal component analysis (PCA). Consistent results across these dimensions are obtained with the PCA models. Tourism has small, positive, and statistically significant economic growth effects. Theoretically consistent values of the capital share and exchange rates are obtained. The results indicate the importance of multiple methods and the overall tourism index in assessing the tourism-growth relationship and minimising publication biases. The practical implication is the provision of robust elasticity estimates and better economic policies.

This case study is intended to describe the inter-level learning process at the Bererod Gratia Credit Union (CUBG) Jakarta and its characteristics based on the concept of inter-level learning in the organization and oriented to the strategic renewal developed by Crossan, Lane, and White (1999), which are learning between individual, group, and organizational levels through 4I: Intuiting, Interpreting, Integrating, Institutionalizing. Also described are the implications of organizational learning on corporate governance. The study was conducted on learning in solving problems of negative results case in the Bintaro Service Place (TP) and loan decisions that must involve the Head Office. Key informants consist of credit staff, Head of Office, and Committee members at Bintaro TP and General Manager at Head Office. The results show that the inter-level learning process in CUBG has a dynamic balance between learning for innovation and change (exploration) with learning for standardization for management certainty (exploitation). Learning is also holistic and includes single-loop learning to triple-loop learning. One important implication of corporate governance is the increasingly entrenched culture of check and balances at various levels of the organization. Communication centrality in learning requires the development of generative change capabilities at every level of the organization to ensure the continuity of transformation is in balance with the development of governance to maintain organizational integrity.Keywords: Organizational Learning; Inter-level Learning, Corporate Governance
