The alarming rise in the number of crimes committed across the country is becoming a matter of great concern. It is popular to relate criminal activities with the poor physical, psychological, social and economic situation of the impoverished part of the population. The most prominent factors contributing to youth criminal behavior in Afghanistan are the country's high levels of poverty, unemployment, and corruption. Keeping all of these facts in mind, the major objective of this study was to analyze the factors affecting youth criminal behavior in Kabul, Afghanistan. In this study quantitative research approach was used. Field surveys were the primary method for collecting the data. A multistage random sampling technique was used for collecting the data.  Firstly, two districts were chosen at random from central Kabul. The Kabul Children's Reform and Education Center was a deliberate choice for the second stage. the third stage involved selecting a sample size of 300 responders in a way that was purposeful. A questionnaire was designed as a data collection instrument, and collected data was analyzed using version 25 of the SPSS program. According to the findings of the survey, the majority of the respondents who were involved in criminal activities were between the ages of 21 and 25, and they were married. Univariate analysis revealed that, the primary factors contributing to youth criminal behavior include poverty, unemployment, lack of socializing and peer pressure. Bivariate analysis revealed that youth unemployment and excessive use of social media were factors that contributed to criminal activities. Hence, this study suggested that government and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) should work together to raise awareness and foster youth empowerment in order to ensure that individuals have the skills and knowledge necessary to engage in the job market and become productive members of society.","PeriodicalId":14024,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Multicultural and Multireligious Understanding","volume":"25 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139184990","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To balance the increase in rice demand, it must be balanced with an increase in national rice production. Paddy fields are the mainstay for producing paddy (rice), the main commodity supporting food security. An effective and efficient way to increase national rice production sustainably is to increase productivity through accurate selection of technological components by taking into account the conditions of the biotic environment, abiotic environment, and optimal land management by farmers. Lowland rice farmers generally use conventional systems by using chemical fertilizer and pesticide inputs as often as possible, thus affecting land quality and grain yield. A farmer's maturity in farming will influence the characteristics of the farmer. The characteristics of farmers and their competencies are an illustration of the farmer's ability to manage farming based on effective and efficient planning by plant cultivation techniques to realize food security and independence. The research aims to study the characteristics of farmers in applying cultivation techniques to increase lowland rice production Survey research and data collection were carried out on groups of farmers who own paddy fields in North Bolaang Mongondow Regency (Sangkub District, Bintauna District, and Bolangitang District). The data taken in this research were age, education level, rice cultivation techniques, and farming experience. The research results showed that the production per hectare obtained according to farmers' cultivation techniques was 1-2 tonnes/ hectare by 45% of farmers and 3-4 tonnes/ hectare by 55% of farmers. Financial conditions influence the application of rice cultivation techniques in North Bolaang Mongondow Regency, Indonesia.","PeriodicalId":14024,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Multicultural and Multireligious Understanding","volume":"11 3-4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139185005","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nevertheless, numerous students encounter difficulties when it comes to content development in their writing. This study endeavors to enhance students' content development in writing, a foundational skill essential for fostering effective communication and critical thinking. The research assesses the efficacy of the Four-Square Writing Method in improving writing content among EFL students at MAN 1 Parepare, an Islamic state senior high school in South Celebes, Indonesia. Using a pre-experimental methodology with a one-group pretest-posttest design, 18 EFL students from class XI IPA 2 were selected through cluster random sampling. Data were collected through written tests before and after the intervention and analyzed using Data Analysis of Microsoft Excel. The results demonstrate a significant improvement in students' writing content at MAN 1 Parepare, with average scores increasing from 59.44 (fair) to 89.63 (very good). A t-test revealed a substantial difference between pretest and posttest scores, with a t-value of 15.46, surpassing the critical t-table value of 2.11.

He, after criticizing the views of the Ash'areh - which favors determinism and necessity and the incompatibility of justice with intrinsic monotheism - and the Mu'tazila - who favors justice and free will - puts forward the Imamiyyah view, which is the principle of justice without damage to verbal and intrinsic monotheism by affirming the free will of man, and considers it a superior view.","PeriodicalId":14024,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Multicultural and Multireligious Understanding","volume":"42 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139185263","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
