This study seeks special education teachers’ perception of visually impaired students’ social adjustment in inclusive settings with qualitative & exploratory design. The sample of the study included 20 teachers working in inclusive schools in the Lahore district. A self-developed semi-structured interview protocol was administered to collect data with a purposive sampling technique. The instrument’s validity was assured by expert opinion (N=02). The instrument's reliability was confirmed through an extensive literature review. Four major themes were drawn from the thematic analysis of data i.e., teachers’ perception, problems of visually impaired students, peers influence, and teachers’ efforts. Findings revealed teachers perceive orientation and mobility, supportive behaviour, the least restrictive environment, assistive technology, and motivational support as major requirements for social adjustment of visually impaired students in an inclusive set-up. The study recommended appropriate training should be provided to teachers of inclusive settings about the social adjustment of visually impaired students.

The purposive sampling method was used to collect data. Eight representative schools were selected from the district Lahore cantonment area and fifteen teachers were selected from each school to collect data and analyse SPSS. The data is presented in frequency distribution tables. Descriptive and influential statistics were applied to infer from data. It revealed that school heads with transformational leadership styles and strict rules regulations clear goals and values had a high effect on students’ achievements.

"How does our minds connect to dissatisfaction in relationship with others and the mindset that arises at a result hereof a connection?" is a question that needs an answer. The researchers aimed to survey university students. Examining the interplay between anxiety, mental wellness, and happiness, this research used an overall correlational methodology. Three hundred individuals, comprising both undergraduates and graduates, were selected from a variety of schools using a purposive sampling approach. The collected data was sorted and evaluated using SPSS (26). There was a negative link between interacting anxiety and both cognitive health and life happiness, according to the findings of the correlational analysis. On the other side, living a fulfilled life was positively correlated with psychological well-being. Anxiety about social interactions and overall pleasure are both influenced by an individual's mental health, according to model-wise regression with lines analysis.

The study focused on investigating the role of teachers' professionalism in mitigating aggressive behavior among university-level resilient students. The quantitative survey design was followed to conduct this study. The study sample consisted of 237 students with MPhil and PhD degrees (Edu). Three tools (The Brief Resilience Scale, the Aggression Questionnaire, and the Teachers Professionalism Scale) were used in this quantitative study to collect data. Tools were converted to Google Forms and disseminated for data collection. Data were analyzed by utilizing descriptive (percentage, mean, standard deviation) and inferential statistics (Pearson correlation, and Hays Process macro mediation analysis model-4). Results revealed that university students were normally resilient and, there was a significant moderating role of the resilience of students on the relationship between teachers' professionalism and the aggressive behavior of students. The study indicates that university teachers necessitate more interventions to enhance the resilience of graduate students and decrease the level of aggression.

This study investigates subject-verb agreement errors in academic writing by BS English students, aiming to enhance their writing proficiency. Despite learning grammatical rules like subject-verb agreement, students frequently struggle to apply these rules correctly. Using a mixed-method approach, data was collected both quantitatively and qualitatively. The findings revealed four types of errors: subject-verb agreement of person (SV1), number (SV2), subject (SV3), and coordinated subject (SV4). No errors were observed for notional agreement and proximity (SV5). Errors in SV1, representing a person's simple subject-verb agreement, were the most frequent. The dominant source of these errors was identified as intralingual factors. The study concludes by offering practical solutions to help students and educators address these challenges effectively, contributing to improved academic writing skills for BS English learners.

Subjects' selection for secondary school students is an important activity. This study investigated factors associated with subjects' selection of secondary level students. Objectives of the study were: finding out factors associated with subjects' selection of secondary school students and developing recommendations for appropriate subjects' selection. The design of the study was quantitative. The population was 30439 students. A sample of 380 was made through a simple random procedure.  A questionnaire was developed as a tool for collecting data. The tool was self-used for data collection, and the data were analyzed with mean scores and a test of chi-square. The factors associated with students' subject selection were found to be parents, guardians, teachers, and siblings. Students' personal characteristics and outcomes of careers were also associated with the selection of subjects. Career guidance facilities for subject selection were recommended. Further orientation seminars were needed at the beginning of new sessions to assist students in subject selection.

This paper analyzes the sociological connection between religiosity, socioeconomic disparity, and health behaviors among Pakistani university students based on the sociological framework. The multistage stratified random sampling was used to obtain 384 students at the University of Sargodha to complete a quantitative cross-sectional survey. The results indicate that there is a statistically significant positive correlation between religiosity and health behaviors. Family income and perceived social status were also found to be important predictors and there was no statistically significant influence of age and education level.  The paper will be a contribution to sociology of health because it will reveal the combined effects of culturally embedded religious norms and structural inequalities on health behavior among young adults in Pakistan and it will have a significant implication on culturally sensitive health promotion interventions and equity-based health promotion in higher education institutions.

Awareness of self-empowerment plays a transformative role in shaping behavioral patterns within higher education. This study aims to provide insights into how awareness of personal empowerment can be used as an effective strategy to promote positive behavioral change, personal growth, decision-making skills, and academic success among higher education students. This study employed a positivist approach to quantitatively examine the relationship between self-empowerment awareness and behavioral patterns among scholars in higher education.  Stratified sampling was used to select respondents. A survey is usually used to collect information. For conducting this survey, two questionnaires were developed on a 5-point Likert scale. Questionnaires revealed that there is a statistically significant positive relationship between USB (university students’ behavior) and AIE (awareness of individual empowerment).
