The persistent shortage of qualified agricultural education teachers, particularly in the specialized field of electricity, poses a significant challenge to the education system. This shortage limits students' access to essential skills and knowledge, hindering their career development in agriculture. To address this issue, it is imperative to prioritize recruiting and developing educators with expertise in agricultural mechanics, including providing comprehensive electrical training. By equipping teachers with the knowledge and skills required to effectively teach these subjects, we can ensure that students receive a high-quality education that prepares them for future careers in the agricultural industry. This literature review examines the current state of the agricultural mechanics discipline of electricity, highlighting the specific challenges teachers and students face. Through an analysis of existing research, we identify key themes such as the need for specialized training, the importance of hands-on experience, and the impact of teacher confidence on student learning. Based on our findings, we propose several recommendations for future research and practice, including developing targeted professional development programs, the integration of industry partnerships, and promoting innovative teaching methods.

ABSTRACT This study explores the factors associated with financial risk tolerance using data from a panel of 1334 investors collected between February and May 2023 across Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Participants completed surveys at two different time points. The surveys included questions focused on measuring financial risk tolerance, subjective financial knowledge, objective financial knowledge, investment experience, cognitive reflection, and various demographic variables. Findings based on hierarchical partitioning models support the Domain‐Specificity Principle, which highlights how domain‐specific factors like subjective financial knowledge and investment experience are more predictive of financial risk tolerance than generalized characteristics such as education level or cognitive ability. Additionally, this study demonstrates the mediating effect of investment experience on the relationship between subjective financial knowledge and financial risk tolerance. In total, results underscore the importance of using domain‐specific investor characteristics rather than non‐specific attributes when studying financial decision‐making and the role of risk tolerance in describing investor outcomes.

Introduction: Intrauterine Growth Restriction is defined as the inability of the fetus to reach its growth potential and can be caused by maternal, placental and fetal factors. Objective: The study aims to make a major social contribution, in order to help the health sectors develop actions aimed at improving the quality of life of pregnant women, promoting changes in behaviors that are harmful to the fetus and thus contributing to reducing infant morbidity and mortality. Methodology: A bibliographic survey was carried out in the Scielo, PubMed and VHL databases, between 2010-2020, with the descriptors and their combinations in Portuguese and English, using the Boolean operators: "fetal growth retardation" OR "intrauterine growth retardation" OR "intrauterine growth restriction" AND "risk factors" AND "intrauterine growth restriction" AND "Brazil". After applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, 10 articles were selected. Results: Analysis of the articles showed that Intrauterine Growth Restriction is strictly related to five themes: evolution in prenatal treatment; socioeconomic factor; low birth weight; fetal mortality and serum leptin concentration, eclampsia and HIV. Conclusion: The analyses available on the main categories related to IUGR showed that lack of prenatal care, poor socioeconomic situation, low leptin concentration during pregnancy, pre-eclampsia and viral infections such as HIV are risk factors for IUGR in Brazil.
