Applied behavior analysis (ABA) is a critical evidence-based framework for developing effective interventions for students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In Kuwait, where the majority of students with ASD are enrolled in private special education schools, the ABA competency...

Microstructure and microhardness of molybdenum processed by monotonic and cyclic high-pressure torsion

Abstract High-pressure torsion (HPT) was employed to investigate the effects of monotonic and cyclic shear deformation on the microstructural evolution and hardness of commercial purity molybdenum processed at room temperature (RT). Disks were subjected to monotonic HPT (m-HPT) a...

Designing Human-Centric GenAI for Medical Hospitality: A Prototype-Based Approach

This paper explores the potential of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) to transform medical hospitality underpinned by service-dominant logic and technology acceptance model. This paper examines how GenAI-enabled systems can bridge the divide between healthcare and hospi...

External Inflation Exposure and Fiscal Policy Under the Dollar Peg: Evidence from GCC Economies
