This paper presents a bibliometric analysis of research on corruption in subsidy systems (1990–2024). Using WoS data and the Biblioshiny package in R, it maps publication trends and citation patterns. It also identifies core journals and collaboration networks in the field. The study adds a new perspective by examining geographical publishing disparities and thematic coverage. Results show a sharp rise in publications after 2010. Research is mainly concentrated in economics, political science and environmental studies. The US, China, and several EU countries dominate scholarly output. Keyword co-occurrence reveals clusters on governance/performance, energy/environmental subsidies, and agricultural policy. The paper highlights research gaps and proposes future directions to improve accountability in subsidy policy.
Raising a child with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) represents a long-term and complex burden for families, significantly affecting parental mental health, family functioning, and daily parent–child interactions. The aim of this review article is to summarize current research findings on the family environment of children with ADHD, with a particular focus on parenting stress, parental mental health, and quality of life. The paper draws on recent quantitative and qualitative studies conducted across diverse cultural contexts and examines both risk and protective factors related to parents and the broader social environment. Special attention is paid to gender differences in caregiving burden, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the role of socioeconomic conditions. Furthermore, the article reviews intervention approaches targeting parents and families, including mindfulness-based programs, art therapy, family- and narrative-based interventions, group programs, and telehealth modalities. The reviewed evidence consistently indicates that targeted parental support is a crucial component of effective ADHD care and should be an integral part of multidisciplinary intervention strategies.
The paper investigates the functional role of inbound tour operators in the urban and rural tourism development of Sarajevo Canton by analyzing relevant parameters such as their business dynamics and collaboration with stakeholders, products, the typology of tourists and stays, and the promotion and sustainability of the offerings. A survey and interviews were conducted with five inbound tour operators situated in the most prominent zone (Old Town with Baščaršija). The findings indicated a strong impact of the inbound tour operators on tourism spatial development, as they are pivotal in fostering stakeholders' collaboration and in marketing and selling local authentic products to international tourists. Their endeavors contribute to creating unforgettable tourist experiences in Sarajevo, particularly concerning city and dark tours, ecotourism, and crafts. Tourist products are disseminated through WOM, international fairs, and online platforms, targeting markets in the EU, the USA, and Canada. This approach enhances international cooperation and promotes the destination's tourism. Inbound tour operators exhibit a positive business trend, although there are notable disparities in the level of collaboration with stakeholders and the focus of policies. Certain areas of action have been overlooked, such as strategies to position Sarajevo as a primary choice and final destination, identifying new potential markets, and adopting a more analytical approach to tourist typologies for more tailored tourism offerings. The paper highlights the current features and challenges of the destination's tourism development, providing practical solutions for inbound tour operators and recommendations for redesign.
This pilot study developed and evaluated a six-week acceptance and commitment therapy–based intervention with an emphasized mindfulness component. Four university students participated in the intervention, and four served as a control group. Psychological vulnerability, operationalized as risk work-related patterns, and perceived stress were assessed before and after the intervention. In the intervention group, two participants showed a shift toward more adaptive work-related patterns, and stress levels decreased in two participants, whereas no pattern changes and increased stress were observed in two cases in the control group. Participants in the intervention group also reported satisfaction with the intervention and perceived subjective benefits. These preliminary findings indicate potential effectiveness and support further evaluation.
Due to the pandemic situation, many educational institutions are forced to supplement traditional teaching with online activities. The choice of appropriate technical tools, whether in the form of LMS (e.g. Moodle) or communication platforms with the possibility of sharing learning materials (e.g. MS Teams), is largely up to the choice of the respective educational institution. The latter often faces a difficult choice, as the range of such applications and systems on the market is wide and it is not easy to find the most suitable tool to suit all needs. Apart from the technological aspects of each platform, which are described and compared in the paper, the attitudes and opinions of the learners who use these online tools and platforms play an important role. Thus, the present study is also concerned with the attitudes of university students towards online learning as one of the modern forms of education in their undergraduate studies and presents the course and some selected results of a research investigation conducted between 20018 and 2022, where the main objective was to determine the preferences and opinions of students on the form, organization and individual tools or elements of online education. Thus, the present study is a contribution to the discussion on the possibilities and limits of using online education in undergraduate or lifelong learning built on the use of modern information and communication technologies.
