Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) remains a pervasive and distressing societal issue with far-reaching physical, emotional, and psychological consequences. This paper delves into the complex dynamics of IPV, aiming to enhance the comprehension of its root causes, contributing factors, and various manifestations. By synthesizing multidisciplinary research, it highlights the role of societal norms, cultural influences, and individual psychological traits in perpetuating such violence. Moreover, the paper elucidates the impact of IPV on survivors, children, families, and communities, emphasizing the urgent need for comprehensive intervention strategies. Drawing upon psychological, sociological, and criminological perspectives, the outlines existing theoretical frameworks that seek to explain the underlying mechanisms of IPV. It explores the cyclical nature of violence, power and control dynamics, as well as the intersectionality of factors such as gender, socioeconomic status, and race. By examining the various forms of IPV, including physical, emotional, sexual, and financial abuse, the paper underscores the importance of recognizing the subtler, non-physical forms of violence. In addressing IPV, evaluate the effectiveness of prevention and intervention programs across different contexts. It emphasizes the significance of early education, awareness campaigns, and policy initiatives in reshaping societal attitudes and dismantling cycles of violence. Additionally, the paper examines support systems for survivors, from crisis intervention and shelters to counseling and legal assistance, while considering the unique needs of marginalized and vulnerable populations.Ultimately, this paper underscores the urgent necessity for a holistic and collaborative approach to eradicating IPV. By understanding its intricate underpinnings and consequences, society can work collectively to challenge ingrained norms, promote healthy relationships, and provide survivors with the resources they need to rebuild their lives. Through a comprehensive exploration of IPV, this paper contributes to the ongoing discourse surrounding this critical issue and advocates for a future free from the shackles of intimate partner violence.

Resurrection plants are special kinds of plants in that they can survive almost complete desiccation from their vegetative parts. They do so by shutting down their metabolic systems to tolerate dehydration and the plants are obviously lifeless. In the recent past, invaluable bioactive compounds from resurrection plants have attracted much attention cognizance of their potential application in medicine. Some of these metabolites are reported to have antibacterial, anticancer, antifungal, and antiviral biological effectiveness. In this review article, particular emphases are made on pharmacological and medicinal applications of some resurrection plants.

In recent years, network security has become a major concern. Using the Internet to store and analyze data has become an integral aspect of the production and operation of many new and traditional enterprises. However, many enterprises lack the necessary resources to secure information security, and selecting the best network security service provider has become a real issue for many enterprises. This research introduces a novel decision-making method utilizing the 2-tuple linguistic complex q-rung orthopair fuzzy numbers to tackle this issue. We propose the 2TLCq-ROF concept by combining the complex q-rung orthopair fuzzy set with 2-tuple linguistic terms, including the fundamental definition, operational rules, scoring, and accuracy functions. Aggregation operators are the fundamental mathematical approach used to combine various inputs into a single output. Taking into account the interaction between the attributes, we develop the 2TLCq-ROF Hamacher operators by using the innovative operational rules. These operators include the 2TLCq-ROFH weighted average, 2TLCq-ROFH ordered weighted average, 2TLCq-ROFH hybrid average, 2TLCq-ROFH weighted geometric, 2TLCq-ROFH ordered weighted geometric, and 2TLCq-ROFH hybrid geometric operators. In addition, we talk about the properties of 2TLCq-ROFH operators such as idempotency, commutativity, monotonicity, and boundedness and also examine their spatial cases. To tackle the problems of the 2TLCq-ROF multiattribute group decision-making environment, we develop a novel approach according to the COPRAS model. Finally, to validate the feasibility of the given strategy, we employ a quantitative example related to select the best network security service provider. In comparison with existing approaches, the developed decision-making algorithm is most extensively used and reduces the loss of information.

Climate change has increasingly been recognised and associated with consumer behaviour: Practitioners are developing their strategies to reduce environmental degradation while increasing the management of sustainable consumption; it needs to better understand consumer attitudes and eco-friendly factors about the issue. Therefore, the current study focused to understand the effects of pro-environmental factors on individuals’ environmental attitudes through the lens of theory of planned behaviour in a cross-cultural setting. Moreover, present research focuses on the moderating role that religiosity plays in causal pathways between certain determinants and intentions in this context. A multi-wave time-lagged research design was employed in this study, and university students from two developing countries were surveyed. The findings revealed pronounced similarities between the two examined countries. Overwhelmingly, pro-environmental factors examined were found to be positively related to attitude formation. Further results showed that attitude and subjective norms are significant predictors of the intention to purchase products with recycled packaging. Moreover, with the exception of perceived behavioural control, religiosity moderates the relationships between all the determinants of TPB and intention to purchase recycled packaged products. Present study offers insightful implications to management of these emerging and/or similar cultural markets regarding customer value for green products. Using TPB, present study broadened and deepen extant stream of literature on consumption of recycled packaged products in two highly emerging markets; Pakistan and Malaysia.
