Abstract: The present work proposes a qualitative analysis in bibliographic research of texts related to neuroscience, social media, in their relationship with censored narratives. This is in addition to the use of a qualitative resource and ethnographic methods, in the report published by Facebook, on the application of censorship. As a complement to the corpus, there is a direct collection of news published about this filter, as well as posts denouncing censorship. The data retracted from April to September 2018, is the most recent carried out by the company and released in their website. The material was analyzed from the information and ideas acquired through the literature review by investigating the frequency of occurrence. The objective is, therefore, to discuss the current studies in the field of neuroscience and social media, inserted in the universe of media narrative studies, being a potentiating factor of knowledge (offline and online) and of behavior, in its relationship with the contents of censored narratives and/or selected by large private companies.

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to look into the support services available to teachers in dealing with physical violent behaviors among children in early childhood centers in the Bolgatanga Municipality of Ghana's Upper East. For this study, a descriptive survey approach with a mixed methods paradigm was chosen. Structured interviews were conducted for ten (10) headteachers who were purposefully and conveniently selected from ten circuits, and questionnaires were administered to one hundred and twenty (120) early childhood education teachers who were all purposefully selected from sixty (60) early childhood education centres across the Bolgatanga Municipality in Ghana's Upper East Region. For quantitative data, frequency tables and percentages were used, while thematic analysis was used for qualitative data. The study discovered that there is little support available for early childhood education instructors dealing with physical violent behaviors in the Bolgatanga Municipality of Ghana's Upper East Region. The study also concluded that early childhood education teachers are unable to make appropriate use of the support services available in their centers. The Social Learning Theory, the Constructivist model, the Behaviour Model, and the Ecological Model all served as foundations for the study. The researcher proposed that school officials and children's families collaborate to reduce the prevalence and impact of physical violent behaviors in their centers. The researcher thinks that the study will provide major insights into how teachers might be provided with the required knowledge and abilities to cope with varied outbursts of physical aggressiveness in good ways. It will also contribute to the body of literature, both locally and globally, by raising knowledge of successful ways for regulating physical violence in our preschoolers.

Abstract: Indonesia, as an archipelagic nation, is characterized by a rich diversity of languages, traditions, religions, and cultures. Central Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara, exemplifies this plurality, with a Muslim majority living alongside Christian, Catholic, Hindu, Buddhist, Confucian, and other religious communities. Despite a relatively high tolerance index ranging from 3.5 to 3.7 over the past five years, the potential for interreligious conflict persists, indicating unresolved socio-political tensions. This study seeks to (1) identify and analyze the factors that trigger interreligious disintegration in Central Lombok; (2) examine the extent to which current regional autonomy policies incorporate local wisdom in preventing conflict; and (3) propose a contextual model for integrating local cultural values into policy frameworks to enhance social cohesion. A qualitative approach was employed, combining observation, in-depth interviews, Findings reveal that religious tension in Central Lombok is rooted in structural inequalities, insufficient interfaith dialogue, and the marginalization of traditional values in governance. While local wisdom has historically functioned as a cohesive force, it remains underutilized in current regional policies. The SLR further exposes a gap in the literature, where governance and indigenous culture are rarely treated as integrative tools for peacebuilding. This study’s novelty lies in its interdisciplinary framework that bridges local wisdom with regional autonomy policy, offering practical insights for conflict prevention in multicultural contexts.
