Abstract: With the escalating demand for personalized products and emotional experiences among consumers, Kansei Engineering has emerged as a core product design methodology centered on emotion quantification-design mapping. Based on 612 valid literatures selected from the Web of Science Core Collection spanning 1978 to 2025, this paper systematically reviews the research progress in this field: it combs through the three-stage evolutionary context (Germination Period, Volatile Development Period, and Boom Period), presents the global research landscape with China, Japan, and South Korea as the core and multi-faceted participation from Europe and America, and identifies four core research themes........

Abstract: Lecturers effectiveness has the greatest potential to influence students university education. However, the unencouraging students performance and quality of some Law Lecturers in Nigeria have been linked to low level of teaching effectiveness among law lecturers. Previous studies on teaching effectiveness in Law faculties have focused on accessibility to and utilization of library information resources (Legal information resources) than on the effects of cognitive styles and information needs, factors. This study, therefore examines the contribution of cognitive styles, information needs, accessibility to and utilization.......

As social media platforms like TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook increasingly dominate spaces of identity formation and moral reasoning among young people, questions arise about how classical theological doctrines can be applied to digital ethical challenges.
The study employs.......

Abstract: This article explicates how Amitav Ghosh’s The Hungry Tide develops a planetary ethic of mourning and care through the intertwined dynamics of grief, translation, and nonhuman vitality. Reading Kusum’s death, Nirmal’s notebooks, Kanai’s struggles with silence, and Piya’s encounters with dolphins, the essay argues that Ghosh reframes solastalgia....

Abstract: The twenty-first century has witnessed profound shifts in the epistemological foundations of the humanities. As digital technologies, global interconnections, ecological crises, and new biopolitical formations reshape human experience, the traditional humanities—centred on canonical literature, philosophy, history, and the arts—have expanded into what scholars refer to as the “new humanities.” This emergent constellation includes digital humanities, environmental humanities, medical humanities, posthumanities, and various intersectional frameworks that foreground race, gender, disability, and decolonial perspectives. The emergence of new humanities is not.....

Abstract: Waste pickers are the unsung heroes of urban sanitation, playing a pivotal role in keeping our cities clean and safeguarding public health. Their tireless efforts not only ensure cleaner surroundings but also have a direct impact on improving our country's Swachh Bharat ranking. In cities like Chandigarh, rapid population growth, urban expansion, and rising living standards have led to a dramatic increase in solid waste generation. This issue is further compounded by the continuous influx of new products and packaging materials driven by technological innovation.....
