The study sample comprised 36 male students who scored the highest on the gelotophobia scale, and were randomly assigned to either the experimental or control group, each consisting of 18 students. The study sample was randomly divided and distributed into two groups (the experimental group and the control group), so that each of these two groups consisted of (18) participants, where the program (cognitive behavioral therapy) was applied to the experimental group only, which consisted of (6) group counseling sessions. At a rate of two hours per week for 6 consecutive weeks, Results of the study showed significant differences in the gelotophobia scale between the experimental and control groups, with the experimental group showing higher levels of gelotophobia (α ≤ 0.05). The follow-up test conducted one month after the program showed no statistically significant differences between the post-test and follow-up test results of the experimental group, indicating that the program effectively maintained a low level of gelotophobia. Based on these findings, the study concluded that the counseling program was effective in enhancing gelotophobia among male students at Nizwa University.","PeriodicalId":192540,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Educational Sciences and Arts","volume":" 13","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141370008","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}

This article explores how Pinter's distinctive pauses, ellipses, and minimalistic stage directions create a subtext that often speaks louder than the dialogue itself. By analysing key plays such as \"The Birthday Party,\" \"The Caretaker,\" and \"The Homecoming,\" the study examines the strategic use of silence to build tension, highlight power dynamics, and depict isolation. Additionally, it compares Pinter's techniques with those of other influential playwrights like Samuel Beckett and Anton Chekhov, and reviews critical interpretations to provide a comprehensive understanding of Pinter's unique dramatic language. The findings underscore the profound impact of Pinter's non-verbal devices on modern theatre and their enduring relevance in contemporary drama.","PeriodicalId":192540,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Educational Sciences and Arts","volume":" 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141369723","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}

In addition, this study aims to test Libyan students’ recognition of adjectival participles and whether they will be able to distinguish them from verbal participles, prove them as real adjectives with their progressive – ing, and participle – ed, – en forms, and find out appropriate Arabic equivalents of these adjectives easily. The data gathered for this study were based on students’ marks they got by answering a two-part test consisting of an introductory part which is a multiple-choice test, followed by the main part which is the translation test. In the first part, the participants who were 30 students enrolled in Translation III course, were asked to choose the correct adjectivalised participle, and in the second part, the participants were asked to translate some participles used as adjectives into Arabic language. The study was mainly based on quantitatively as well as qualitatively analysing students’ answers to the test questions. The findings of this research revealed that only 16.67 % of the participating students successfully recognized verbal participles used as adjectives. On the other hand, 33.33 % of the students have appropriately rendered the involved de-participle adjectives into Arabic. In addition to the previous results, 20 % of the respondents properly recognized the present participle adjectives, whereas 50% of them truly recognized past adjectival participles in English.","PeriodicalId":192540,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Educational Sciences and Arts","volume":" 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140211197","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}

The study concluded several results, the most important of which are; that the degree of Principals' Empowering Leadership was very high in addition, the level of job involvement was very high too. The result showed also that there are statistically significant differences among study sample responses about the relationship between Empowering Leadership and job involvement due to age variable, and the differences were in favor of female teachers whose age is less than 25 years, and there are differences due to the variable of Years of experience, and the differences were in favor of female teachers whose years of experience are less than 10 years, and there were no statistically significant differences in the responses of the study sample about the relationship between Empowering Leadership and job involvement due to the educational qualification variable. Based on results, the researcher recommends several interventions, the most important of which are; Raising the level of female teachers’ awareness of the impact of their job on the overall effectiveness of the school, allowing female teachers to make important decisions quickly to meet the needs of beneficiaries, and believing in female teachers’ abilities to develop themselves even if they made some mistakes. Finally, the researchers recommend further studies on the potential leadership relationship with other variables in the school environment, with increasing attention to empowering workers as a modern management method that achieves many advantages in organizations.","PeriodicalId":192540,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Educational Sciences and Arts","volume":" 78","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140211042","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}
