ABSTRACT
Any large gathering brings in potential health risks & risk to disaster. Studies have shown that the benefits outweigh the risks. The benefits are in the areas of well being as those who participated in the month long Hindu congregation, reported a longitudinal increase in well being than those who did not attend or participate. Through the lens of three published studies on the Kalpwasis of the Kumbh Mela (Large & Long congregation of Hindu pilgrims), the article focuses on the influence of socializing & collectiveness on human behavior. The next part is the aspect of faith healing where the article focuses on the trust, confidence angle of human behavior & how it impacts the clinical medicine. The topic of faith healing is seen through the context of medical & behavioral science. At the end, there are two examples related to faith healing. Thus, in the current challenging times, it is prudent to get back to the habit to socialize while developing trust & confidence for each other to not only improve our physical & mental health but also the holistic health.

ABSTRACT
Objective: Academic adjustment among pre-service teachers in universities is crucial for their success, yet the influence of parenting styles remains understudied. This systematic review examines the relationship between parenting styles and academic adjustment among pre-service teachers. Impact Statement: This systematic review explores the relationship between parenting styles and academic adjustment among pre-service teachers in universities, shedding light on a critical yet underexplored area in teacher education. The findings synthesize current evidence to highlight how early parental influences shape students’ academic behaviors, resilience, and adaptability in higher education. By identifying key patterns and gaps, this study provides valuable insights for educators, policymakers, and researchers aiming to enhance academic support strategies for future teachers. Therefore, Parenting styles influence academic adjustment among pre-service teachers in universities by shaping students' academic motivation, coping skills, and overall adjustment to university life. The review highlights research gaps and offers recommendations for improving educational support for future teachers. Methods: Using the Population, Concept, and Context (PCC) framework, we developed MeSH terms [(“Parenting Styles” OR “Parenting Practices”) AND (“Academic Adjustment” OR “University Adjustment”) AND (“Pre-Service Teachers” OR “Student Teachers”) AND (“Universities” OR “Higher Education”)] to search ERIC, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library. The review was registered on PROSPERO [613401]. Results: Studies from 2020 to 2024 highlight that authoritative parenting enhances self-efficacy and motivation, while negative parenting correlates with maladaptation. Teacher communication, support, and international experiences further improve academic engagement. Conclusion: Parenting styles and teaching strategies significantly impact pre-service teachers' academic adjustment. Future researc

ABSTRACT
This article examines narratives of empowerment of survivors of gender-based violence (GBV) living in internally displaced persons’ camps in Mogadishu, the capital of Somalia, and the district of Afgoye in the Lower Shabelle Region of the Southwest State of Somalia. These empowerment narratives emphasize survivors’ tales of resiliency, recovery, and determination. They also demonstrate how survivors regain agency and make choices that improve their well-being. Additionally, the narratives stress how crucial it is for survivors to have access to medical care, legal assistance, and employment opportunities in order to start all over again. The survivors emphasize the importance of support systems, availability of resources, and concerted efforts to bridge the gender divide and in dealing with GBV in Somalia. This includes enlisting men and boys as allies, advocating for policy changes, and initiating community-led projects.
ABSTRACT
Parenting style is a pattern of behavioural approaches used by a parent when interacting with their child, which significantly influences their lives. Parenting styles also significantly impact adolescent well-being across various aspects. Adolescence is a crucial stage of development, spanning the ages of 10-19, which is marked by rapid biological, psychological, and social changes. The study examines four parenting styles, such as authoritative, authoritarian, permissive, and neglectful, which are effects on adolescents' psychological, physical, social, emotional, and educational well-being. The study revealed that authoritative parenting style is characterised by warmth, responsiveness, and structured guidance, which consistently support positive outcomes in all areas of well-being. Conversely, authoritarian and permissive styles often result in adverse outcomes such as poorer mental health and diminished well-being. The study emphasises the significance of supportive family environments, open communication, and nurturing practices in promoting adolescents' well-being. The findings hold significant educational implications, emphasising the need for strong home-school partnerships and parental guidance programmes to enhance adolescent well-being. The study concludes by emphasising the profound impact of parenting styles on adolescent development and the crucial role of authoritative methods in promoting overall well-being.

ABSTRACT
Rational: Turnover intention among Human Resource (HR) professionals poses a critical threat to organizational stability yet remains underexplored in behavioural science literature. As strategic custodians of talent acquisition, employee engagement, and cultural continuity, HR professionals’ own intent to exit reflects systemic vulnerabilities that undermine retention mechanisms across the organization. Positioning them as often overlooked yet vulnerable stakeholders at the intersection of strategy and employee well-being This study explicitly investigates demographic predictors of turnover intention among HR professionals across diverse industries in the NCR region. A cross-sectional survey was conducted, followed by descriptive and inferential statistical analyses to examine differences in turnover intention across demographic variables. Findings revealed a moderate level of intent to leave, with females exhibiting marginally higher turnover intention than males; however, the difference was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). No significant correlation was observed across age, gender, hierarchy, tenure, or education too. Originality: A distinctive and novel feature of this study is the concentration of respondents in senior HR roles. This may as well have introduced social desirability bias, potentially masking deeper dissatisfaction. The insights underscore the need for HR-driven, demographically attuned interventions. Recognizing HR professionals as emotionally exposed actors due to their roles in conflict resolution, emotional labor, and policy enforcement. The study also calls for deliberate structural protections within the organizational ecosystem to not only mitigate turnover but also to reinforce organizational resilience and long-term workforce stability. Positioning HR as a vulnerable stakeholder in need for a robust systematic support just like any other function.
