ChatGPT as a modern tool for Bible teaching in confessional religious education : a German view
No full textBiblical didactics is an important element of confessional religious education. In traditional settings, it is primarily associated with working with the text, alone or in groups, in plenary discussion or pantomime. Nowadays, however, young people are increasingly acquiring their knowledge—including about the Bible—on the Internet, using new technologies such as conversational Artificial Intelligence (AI), of which ChatGPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformers) is perhaps the best-known example. In this context, the following article seeks to answer the question of whether, and if so to what extent, ChatGPT can be a helpful tool for teaching the Bible in the classroom. To answer this question, the authors present a theoretical framework that encompasses both foundational insights into conversational AI and ChatGPT, as well as their implications for religious education and biblical teaching in Germany. In the next step, based on J. Theis’ five-step model of Bible didactics [(1) initial perception; (2) analysis of the text; (3) in-depth reflection; (4) critical interpretation; (5) creative assimilation], ways of using ChatGPT in biblical teaching in the classroom are presented and their potential limitations are discussed. The article concludes with six final theses that summarise the investigation findings and offer some suggestions for the future
Adaptation of Belk’s materialism scale to the Polish population and assessment of relationships between materialism, values, religiosity, and pro-environmental beliefs
No full textAccording to Russell Belk’s conceptualisation, materialism is a personality trait reflected in possessiveness, envy, and non-generosity. The aim of the study was to adapt Belk’s Materialism Scale (BMS) to the Polish population, specifically, to evaluate its psychometric properties (factor structure and reliability) and convergent and divergent validity. Also, we aimed to examine relationships between materialism and values (according to Schwartz’s theory), religiosity, and pro-environmental beliefs (within the New Ecological Paradigm). We conducted two studies: the adaptation study I (N = 770) and the hypotheses-testing study II (N = 568). In Study I, we performed confirmation and exploration factor analyses (CFA and EFA) and established a convergent validity (with the Richins & Dawson’s Materialism Value Scale) and a discriminant validity (with the Jaworska-Gruszczyńska’s Time Organization Scale). After modifying the initial model of the materialism scale, based on error covariance and changes in the number of items, we developed the Polish version of the BMS, which proved its applicability in the Polish population. The Study II results showed that materialism positively related to self-enhancement value, while it negatively related to openness to change and self-transcendence values, and religiosity

No full textPlanetary Health and Nursing
No full textClimate change is characterized by a process in which average temperatures and precipi- tation levels change over the long term. This results in extreme heat or cold, floods, storms, droughts, fires, and air pollution. All these events have direct effects on human physical and mental health. Furthermore, ecosystem and socially mediated impacts lead to conflicts and migration and affect well-being, mental and physical health as well. The concept of planetary health offers starting points for adapting to and coping with the climate crisis. The adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals by the United Nations and their incorporation into the International Council of Nurses' Code of Ethics places a responsibility on nursing professionals. This can result in levels of action at the micro, meso, and macro levels. These new scopes of practice require awareness, training, and empowerment on the topic, as well as expanded roles for nurses. These new roles and fields of action can relate to the individual care of persons and also extend to communi-ties or society and politics. In addition, the tasks range from health promotion to palliative care and cover the entire life cycle from prenatal to the elderly

No full textNot vulnerable enough for victim support?! : Advancing the formal identification of human trafficking for labour exploitation through a multidimensional vulnerability approach
No full textThe formal identification of presumed victims of human trafficking for labour exploitation remains a complex and contested process, shaped by both international and European legal frameworks. This article critically examines the definitions of trafficking, slavery, and forced labour, thereby exploring the fluidity of labour exploitation and the limitations inherent in differentiating between various forms of exploitation within the identification process. While legal systems and frameworks often attempt to create clear distinctions, the practical reality of victim identification demonstrates that such demarcations are not always possible. Moreover, the threshold for victim support in comparison to criminal proceedings needs to be approached within a human rights and victim-centred framework. We therefore expand the analysis of human trafficking for labour exploitation by integrating theoretical approaches of vulnerability and propose a conceptual model that integrates a multidimensional vulnerability framework. The model offers a dual contribution: first, it can enhance both policy implementation and victim identification, serving as a foundational basis for policy development; second, we propose it as an analytical tool for future research on human trafficking and labour exploitation
Silence please! : How school noise affects the well-being of school teachers
No full textAs noise is one of the most significant stress factors in the teaching profession, its impact in real classroom situations was investigated in Study 1. Noise levels (N = 56) were measured, and teachers were surveyed afterward. In Study 2, assumed correlations between school-specific noise sources, noise perception and strain were quantified in a sample of 820 teachers via online survey. The results show significant correlations between measured sound levels during classroom teaching and teachers’ perceived loudness and annoyance. Noise annoyance turned out to be an important predictor for teachers’ perceived strain and varied depending on the school-specific noise, with an important role of verbal student behavior. The results highlight the need for tailored noise prevention measures in schools to reduce noise-related strain among teachers. Furthermore, they indicate that existing regulations for workplace noise may not be always applicable to schools as measured ‘ear-safe’ volumes also cause noise-related strain
