“…Educational programs may not achieve their intended objectives if they do not account for cultural aspects. Giorgetti, Campbell, and Arslan [ 80 ] correctly attributed the relationship between culture and education as very close, complex, and mutually interdependent. Radhika [ 81 ] found that cultural elements such as individualism and collectivism have profound implications for educational attainment.…”

Smoking is still a serious economic, health, and social problem despite various efforts to curb its prevalence. We examined the influence of financial literacy and financial education on the smoking behavior in the United States in terms of the use of rational decision-making abilities to reduce irrational behavior. We hypothesized that financial literacy and financial education, as proxies for rational decision making, would reduce the likelihood of smoking. We used data from the Preference Parameters Study (PPS) of Osaka University conducted in the United States in 2010 and applied probit regression models to test our hypothesis on a sample of 3831 individuals. We found that financially literate people are less likely to be smokers, though we found no clear role of financial education in reducing the likelihood of smoking. Further, respondents’ gender, age, unemployment status, and risky health behaviors such as drinking and gambling, have a significantly positive association with smoking, while marital status, university degree, family size, household income, household assets, physical exercise, and level of happiness have a significantly negative association. Our findings suggest that financial literacy, as an instrument encouraging rational decision making, could be a tool to help reduce smoking in the United States.

“…Stories can improve learning memory capacity (Dahlstrom, 2014) and critical thinking (Csikar & Stefaniak, 2018). They can also function as an effective communication tool in learning process (Giorgetti et al, 2017). Pedagogically, RANDAI learning model teaches democracy and collaboration principles through creating a circle in the show (Arsih et al, 2019).…”

The current study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of RANDAI learning model that was produced from the integration of Minangkabau culture and Problem Based Learning (PBL), in enhancing pre-service biology teachers' critical thinking skills. This experimental study used a nonequivalent pretest-posttest control group design and involved 107 pre-service biology teachers from Universitas Negeri Padang (State University of Padang), Indonesia. The data were gathered using the critical thinking essay tests. A critical thinking rubric was used to assess the participants' answers, and the results were analyzed using ANCOVA at a significance level of 0.05. The statistical results showed that RANDAI learning model affected pre-service biology teachers' critical thinking skills. The LSD test result confirmed that there was a significant difference in terms of critical thinking performance between the participants in RANDAI, Problem Based Learning, and conventional classes. Therefore, RANDAI learning model can be used to enhance the pre-service biology teachers' critical thinking skills.

“…Additionally, education is also supposed to be a means of cultural transformation. In this view, education, including educational institutions, educators, and school materials, count among the most effective agents of cultural change, development and transformation 9 . Rather than viewing education as a means for transferring and maintaining cultural values, contemporary scholars in this field perceive education should empower and transform society 10 .…”
