Kuşaklararası Manevi Güçlenme Eğitimi Programı İlkokul 4. Sınıf Öğrencileri ile Uygulama Örneği
Bu araştırma, okullarda kuşaklararası öğrenme programlarının özgün bir örneği olarak Kuşaklararası Manevi Güçlenme Eğitimi Programını ortaya koymakta ve programın çocuklar üzerindeki yansımalarını ele almaktadır. Taba-Tyler modeli esas alınarak geliştirilen program 12 oturumda, değer merkezli bir yaklaşımla hazırlanmıştır. Değişen toplumun göz ardı edilen ihtiyaçlarına eğilerek geleneksel ve kültürel değerlerin yeniden yapılandırılması ve güçlendirilmesi amacıyla toplumsal sorunlar ve yeniden kurmacılık felsefesini esas alan tasarımların bir örneği olan program, sosyal tecrit ve kuşaklararası mahrumiyete karşı kültürel kodlarımız ekseninde geliştirilecek politikalara bir öneri niteliği taşımaktadır. Bir örneğinin ilkokul ve huzurevinde denendiği Kuşaklararası Manevi Güçlenme Eğitimi Programının çocuklar üzerindeki yansımaları psikolojik sağlamlık ve insani değerler düzeyi açısından değerlendirilirken ayrıca çocukların, insani değerler, aile bağları ve farklı kuşaklara ilişkin algısı üzerindeki yansımaları ele alınmıştır. Bir karma yöntem araştırması olan çalışmanın nicel boyutunda; deneysel desenlerden yarı deneysel desen benimsenerek ilkokul 4. sınıfa devam eden 61 çocuktan oluşan çalışma grubu, deney ve kontrol gruplarına ayrılmıştır. Yalnızca deney grubuna uygulanan programın öncesinde ve sonrasında her iki gruba da ön test ve son test uygulanarak veri elde edilmiştir. Araştırmanın nitel boyutunda ise fenomonolojik model benimsenerek, yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme ve belge incelemesi teknikleri ile elde edilen veriler betimsel analizle çözümlenmiştir. Çocukların kavramlarında meydana gelen değişiklikler, programın değerler açısından kuşaklararası bir benzerlik oluşturduğunu gösterirken aynı zamanda insani değerler ile aile ve kuşaklararası ilişkilere ilişkin algıları açısından çocuklar üzerinde olumlu bir gelişmeye işaret etmektedir. Bu bulgular bağlamında program, kültürel aktarım ve toplumsal uyum sürecine sunması beklenen katkılar açısından önem taşımaktadır.

Belief in karma is associated with perceived (but not actual) trustworthiness
Believers of karma believe in ethical causation where good and bad outcomes can be traced to past moral and immoral acts. Karmic belief may have important interpersonal consequences. We investigated whether American Christians expect more trustworthiness from (and are more likely to trust) interaction partners who believe in karma. We conducted an incentivized study of the trust game where interaction partners had different beliefs in karma and God. Participants expected more trustworthiness from (and were more likely to trust) karma believers. Expectations did not match actual behavior: karmic belief was not associated with actual trustworthiness. These findings suggest that people may use others’ karmic belief as a cue to predict their trustworthiness but would err when doing so.

The Tibetan book of the dead
The Tibetan Book of the Deadis the most famous Buddhist text in the West, having sold more than a million copies since it was first published in English in 1927. Carl Jung wrote a commentary on it, Timothy Leary redesigned it as a guidebook for an acid trip, and the Beatles quoted Leary's version in their song \"Tomorrow Never Knows.\" More recently, the book has been adopted by the hospice movement, enshrined by Penguin Classics, and made into an audiobook read by Richard Gere. Yet, as acclaimed writer and scholar of Buddhism Donald Lopez writes, \"The Tibetan Book of the Deadis not really Tibetan, it is not really a book, and it is not really about death.\" In this compelling introduction and short history, Lopez tells the strange story of how a relatively obscure and malleable collection of Buddhist texts of uncertain origin came to be so revered--and so misunderstood--in the West.
The central character in this story is Walter Evans-Wentz (1878-1965), an eccentric scholar and spiritual seeker from Trenton, New Jersey, who, despite not knowing the Tibetan language and never visiting the country, crafted and namedThe Tibetan Book of the Dead. In fact, Lopez argues, Evans-Wentz's book is much more American than Tibetan, owing a greater debt to Theosophy and Madame Blavatsky than to the lamas of the Land of Snows. Indeed, Lopez suggests that the book's perennial appeal stems not only from its origins in magical and mysterious Tibet, but also from the way Evans-Wentz translated the text into the language of a very American spirituality.

Influence of karmic beliefs on consumers' intention to share entrepreneur-related word of mouth
This study examined the effect of the interaction between an entrepreneur's behavior and consumers' karmic beliefs on the latter's willingness to spread entrepreneur-related word of mouth. Using the stereotype content model and dual processing theory, we conducted two scenario-based online surveys. The results showed that consumers' information processing mode mediated the relationship between an entrepreneur's behavior and consumers' willingness to spread entrepreneur-related word of mouth, such that those with strong karmic beliefs were more likely to process behavioral information in an affective way and be influenced by an entrepreneur's warmth behavior, while those with weak karmic beliefs were more likely to process the same information in a cognitive way and be influenced by an entrepreneur's competence behavior--with either pathway contributing to a stronger willingness to spread entrepreneur-related word of mouth. Our findings extend the literature and also provide managerial insights for firms looking to shape and enhance their entrepreneurs' image and, by extension, their corporate image.

Understanding and Encountering the Ethics of Self and Others in Autoethnography: Challenging the Extant and Exploring Possibilities
In cultural and institutional contexts, autoethnography examines personal and professional experiences. While conducting and representing autoethnography, these considerations raise ethical challenges for self and others. This expository paper examines and explores the various forms of the ethics of self and others in autoethnography in South Asian contexts. Furthermore, ethical positions in an autoethnographic inquiry are presented and explored by challenging the extant and exploring the possibilities. Moreover, ethical standards are maintained based on the first author's experiences. We also realized that the emerging challenges of the ethics of self and others in autoethnography are ongoing and real. Likewise, we brought the first author’s lived experiences of conducting autoethnographic inquiry in his personal, professional, and cultural contexts (i.e., South Asian contexts) as a guiding principle. Above all, following the foundational understanding of ethics in autoethnography, one may engage with others in the account of self-experiences. The paper concludes by highlighting possible procedural and situational ethics pertaining to Dharma and Karma in autoethnography as a transformative educational research methodology (Luitel & Dahal, 2020) that might be demonstrated while conducting an autoethnographic inquiry.

Exploring the concept of Cognitive Digital Twin from model-based systems engineering perspective
Digital Twin technology has been widely applied in various industry domains. Modern industrial systems are highly complex consisting of multiple interrelated systems, subsystems and components. During the lifecycle of an industrial system, multiple digital twin models might be created related to different domains and lifecycle phases. The integration of these relevant models is crucial for creating higher-level intelligent systems. The Cognitive Digital Twin (CDT) concept has been proposed to address this challenge by empowering digital twins with augmented semantic capabilities. It aims at identifying the dynamics and interrelationships of virtual models, thus to enhance complexity management capability and to support decision-making during the entire system lifecycle. This paper aims to explore the CDT concept and its core elements following a systems engineering approach. A conceptual architecture is designed according to the ISO 42010 standard to support CDT development; and an application framework enabled by knowledge graph is provided to guide the CDT applications. In addition, an enabling tool-chain is proposed corresponding to the framework to facilitate the implementation of CDT. Finally, a case study is conducted, based on simulation experiments as a proof-of-concept.
