It employed a descriptive analytical methodology, utilizing content analysis of official documents and websites of Yemeni universities, in addition to qualitative interviews with a sample of individuals responsible for information technology centers in 23 public and private universities The qualitative analysis of the data revealed that Yemeni universities face several challenges that impact their ability to adapt to rapid technological changes in higher education. Notably, private universities exhibited greater flexibility compared to their public counterparts. The study underscores the urgent need to adopt effective governance strategies, increase awareness of the importance of Information Technology governance, and allocate necessary financial and technical resources. Furthermore, the findings indicate that enhancing the responsiveness of universities to digital transformations requires collaboration among all stakeholders, including government entities and the private sector. The study also emphasizes the necessity of establishing a national center for Information Technology governance in higher education, developing comprehensive strategies that align with global developments, and creating training programs to enhance the competencies of human resources in this field. In light of these results, the study offers practical suggestions and recommendations that can guide efforts to strengthen the capacity of Yemeni universities to respond to digital transformations through Information Technology governance, ultimately improving the quality of higher education in Yemen.</em></p>2024-12-31T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 http://journals.lagh-univ.dz/index.php/sej/article/view/4105The Regional and International spheres of Algerian Foreign Policy: Diffusion, Performance, and Influence.2025-01-21T09:09:34+00:00Roukaia BOUKARRASroukai.boukarras@univ-mosta.dz<p><em>Algeria's foreign policy operates within the regional and international spheres to which it belongs: it is influenced by them and also exerts influence on them in a mutually dependent regional relationship. Algeria aims to play the role of a influential regional power. However, it faces various challenges arising from increased competition and pressures in the regions that constitute its strategic depth and vital area. To address these challenges, Algerian decision-makers seek to adopt a comprehensive and adaptable strategy that enhances their influence, performance, and reach. They employ proactive and dynamic diplomacy that reaffirms their steadfast stance on the Palestinian cause, liberation movements, and just issues. Algeria also seeks to revive inter-Maghreb cooperation in the region, supported by its non-permanent membership in the United Nations Security Council until December 2025. This has positioned Algeria as a key player in both local and international arenas. Algeria works towards achieving a strong positioning within the sub-regions it belongs to by enhancing its role as a trusted mediator in Middle Eastern issues. It focuses on strengthening its relationships with Arab (and Maghreb), Mediterranean, and African countries through innovative solutions. Algeria possesses elements of latent power, including energy, economy, demographics, and strong political will, which contribute to its pursuit of a robust regional presence.</em></p>2024-12-31T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 http://journals.lagh-univ.dz/index.php/sej/article/view/4106The impact of digital proliferation on public health among Palestinian youth in Tulkarm Governorate A field study of a sample of young people in the State of Palestine2025-01-21T09:09:31+00:00Nathmieh Fakhry Khalel HEJAZI nathmieh@gmail.com<p><em>This study aimed to explore the impact of digital rumors on the mental health of Palestinian youth in Tulkarm Governorate.

In recent years, there has been significant advancement in educational research methodologies, particularly with the development of statistical software. Among these methodologies is Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), which holds a prominent position in both educational and psychological research. SEM is considered part of advanced statistical analysis for data processing, relying on a range of statistical techniques such as multiple linear regression, path analysis, and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). These methods allow for testing the validity of networks of relationships between variables in a holistic manner rather than in isolation. This paper will discuss the conditions for using the Path Analysis model, data processing methods, and interpretation of outcomes, through the analysis of various studies that have applied this approach to solve research problems.</em></p>2024-12-31T00:07:13+00:00Copyright (c) http://journals.lagh-univ.dz/index.php/sej/article/view/4109The role of smart cities in promoting health2025-01-21T09:09:27+00:00Abdelrhman Mohammed ELHASSAN AHMED aaalhassan@imamu.edu.sa<p><em>We aim through this study to identify the role of smart cities in promoting health through a descriptive study, by studying the relationship between smart cities and their promotion of health within the urban environment, using smart city technologies to create more efficient healthcare systems, and identifying smart digital solutions to monitor epidemics and diseases, and environmental health, to enhance the health of its residents.
