Artificial Intelligence - AI-Driven Psychological Analytics in Unveiling the Quality of Work Life Among the Thai Working Population

Supakorn Tunvaravuttichai — 2026-04-10

This survey research explores the intricate relationship between the Quality of Working Life (QWL) and the overall quality of life among the working-age population in Samut Songkhram province, with a particular focus on the impact of evolving workplace challenges. The study utilizes a questionnaire-based approach and involves a sample of 399 individuals. The analysis reveals that under standard conditions, the participants reported an excellent quality of working life, with notable strengths in areas such as a proper and safe work environment and substantial development potential. However, amidst shifting occupational landscapes, the overall QWL dropped to a moderate level. Notably, factors such as nutritional responsibility, physical activity, and stress management showed significant correlations with the quality of working life, emphasizing the importance of holistic well-being in the workplace. The findings highlight the need for targeted interventions and support mechanisms, including workplace activities and counseling services, to enhance the working quality and ultimately contribute to a better quality of life for the working-age population in the modern era. Further research is recommended to investigate the long-term effects and extend the study to other populations.

Hemodialysis Duration and Quality of Life Among Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease at Guido Valadares National Hospital, Dili Timor-Leste : A Cross-Sectional Study

Joaquim Gregorio de Carvalho — 2026-04-08

Introduction: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) represents a major global public health concern, with a rapidly increasing burden worldwide. According to the 2023 report by the International Society of Nephrology, approximately 850 million individuals globally are affected by CKD, with a median prevalence of 9.5% and a median mortality rate attributable to CKD of 2.4% (ISN, 2023). In the Asia region, the prevalence of CKD varies considerably, ranging from 7% to 34.3%. The regional burden is largely driven by highly populated countries, particularly China, with an estimated 159.8 million affected individuals (95% CI: 146.6–174.1), and India, accounting for approximately 140.2 million cases (95% CI: 110.7–169.7) (Liyanage et al., 2022). In Timor-Leste, CKD has emerged as a significant contributor to mortality, with an estimated mortality rate of 32.7 per 100,000 population, highlighting its substantial public health burden (WHO, 2021). In 2025, the Nephrology Unit of Hospital Nacional Guido Valadares reported a total of 114 active patients receiving regular haemodialysis therapy, indicating a substantial demand for renal replacement services at the national referral hospital (Medical Record HNGV, 2025). This study aims to examine the relationship between the duration of hemodialysis therapy and quality of life among patients with chronic kidney disease at the Nephrology Unit of Hospital Nacional Guido Valadares, Dili.

Method: This study was conducted at the Nephrology Unit of Hospital Nacional Guido Valadares, Dili, using a quantitative correlational approach with a cross-sectional design. A total of 89 participants were included, selected through non-probability sampling using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using the WHOQOL questionnaire to assess quality of life, and statistical analysis was performed using the Spearman Rank correlation test.

Result: The results demonstrated a statistically significant association between the duration of hemodialysis and quality of life among patients with chronic kidney insufficiency (r = 0.629; p < 0.05). The majority of respondents had undergone hemodialysis for more than 24 months (58 patients; 65.2%), and most participants were classified as having a high quality of life (54 patients; 60.7%).

Conclussion: identified a significant relationship between the duration of haemodialysis therapy and quality of life among patients with CKD. These findings indicate that the length of haemodialysis treatment is an important factor influencing patients’ quality of life.

Mapping Dominant Managerial Profiles in Public Sector Organizations Using the Quinn Competing Values Framework

Lim derson — 2026-04-01

This study examines the dominant managerial profiles within public sector institutions through the application of the Quinn Competing Values Framework (CVF). The research adopts a quantitative approach to identify prevalent managerial competencies and leadership orientations among civil servants. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical techniques. The findings reveal a predominance of hierarchical and rational goal-oriented managerial profiles, reflecting the bureaucratic and performance-driven nature of public organizations. The study contributes to the literature on managerial competencies in the public sector by integrating competency-based management theories with the CVF model. Implications for human resource development and public administration reforms are discussed.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Analytics to Enhance EdPEx Self-Assessment Quality and DataDriven Strategic Decision Making

Tappawan Predakasermsin — 2026-04-08

The research on the Study of the quality of self-assessment according to the criteria for developing educational quality towards excellence (EdPEx) has the objectives 1) to study the factors related to the quality assurance operation and the self-assessment process according to the criteria for developing educational quality towards excellence (EdPEx) 2) to find the formats, concepts, and main issues that affect the self-assessment according to the criteria for developing educational quality towards excellence (EdPEx) using a mixed research methodology. The research collected data from the sample group, including administrators, lecturers, and staff of Suan Sunandha Rajabhat University.

The quantitative findings revealed that the overall level of quality assurance system implementation and self-assessment was "high" (mean 4.02, SD = 0.48). The highest-scoring categories were organizational leadership and strategic planning, while the lowest-scoring categories were measurement, analysis, and knowledge management and implementation. A Pearson correlation analysis revealed a significant positive relationship between administrator commitment and staff engagement and the level of quality assurance system implementation (r = 0.68, p < 0.01). Multiple regression analysis indicated that administrator commitment and internal communication were key factors positively influencing quality assurance system implementation (p < 0.05) and accounted for 55% of the variance.

The qualitative findings from in-depth interviews indicated that Respondents have a basic understanding of EdPEx principles but lack a systematic understanding. Organizational leadership and governance play a crucial role in driving educational quality. Strategic planning is clear but lacks the use of evidence-based data to support decision-making. Regarding customer focus and knowledge management, there are still developments to include a central tracking system and database. Meanwhile, personnel have positive attitudes toward quality assurance but require further knowledge development.

The Business of Trust: A sociological orientation on social enterprise projects with disadvantaged citizens

James Moir — 2026-04-07

This conceptual paper explores issues related to trust in working with disadvantaged citizens on social enterprise initiatives. This type of work rests on trust as a core element since these initiatives involve citizens at the sharp end of inequality and deprivation, and who may consequently distrust those considered as outsiders. This paper considers the nature of social enterprises and how they seek to involve and improve the lives of those who live in disadvantaged communities. It draws on literature focused on involving such communities and how the trust process has been conceptualised and researched in organisational studies. An analysis is offered of the traditional psychological approach to trust, critiquing it from a perspective that considers citizen mistrust as being a reflection of past de-identification processes. This leads to applying the sociologist Harold Garfinkel's work on trust conditions as pre-conditions to be met by agencies proposing social enterprise work.
