The study is based on document analysis, examining urban planning laws, historical site laws, building control laws, government policy documents and relevant academic concepts. The findings indicate significant limitations in managing Lamphun's historical sites within the framework of the comprehensive urban plan and general laws. These include a lack of spatial detail in the comprehensive plan, a disconnect between urban planning and historical site laws, building controls that do not align with historical values, inadequate land use and cultural tourism regulations and a lack of community participation and integrated management mechanisms. Therefore, developing a specific urban plan for the conservation-oriented management of Lamphun's historical sites is a suitable approach to integrate conservation, urban development and community participation, protecting cultural heritage alongside balanced and sustainable urban development.</p> 2026-06-28T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/283825 The Research Titled Legal Problems on Access to Healthcare Services for LGBTQ+ Individuals: A Case Study on Medical Consent by Same-Sex Partners under the National Health Act of B.E. 2550 (2007) 2026-01-27T21:17:34+07:00 Krittapas Jaiyen earnkrittapj40@gmail.com <p>This academic consists purposes to study the legal issues concerning substitute decision-making for medical treatment by same-sex partners. In Thailand, when a patient who identifies as a member of the LGBTQ+ community is in a condition that prevents them from giving informed consent, the medical practitioner is required to obtain consent from a relative or a person who has a legally recognized relationship with the patient. As a result, same-sex partners despite having an intimate and genuine relationship are legally excluded from providing such consent, due to the absence of clear legal provisions recognizing their status. This legal gap creates a significant barrier to equal access to healthcare services. Therefore, it is necessary to explore legal reforms that would recognize and protect the rights of same-sex partners, enabling them to act as substitute decision-makers in medical situations, thereby ensuring equitable access to healthcare.</p> 2026-06-28T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/285216 Lessons Learned from Teaching Techniques in Mathematics Both Thai and International for Students 2026-02-24T11:52:05+07:00 Sion Hasadsri hsion@aru.ac.th <p>This academic consists purposes Lessons learned from teaching techniques in mathematics, both Thai and international, for students.

For Roy philosophical essences is one. Interpretative persons have to understand principle of behind the interpretative principle and clearly the understanding of author’s intention can be interpreting the pass for support the whole. So, interpretation can be achieving the gold of it, namely, the building of social unity according to Roy’s philosophy that the way for revelation more than moksa of individual which was ultimate of religious gold.</p> 2026-06-28T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/285879 Guidelines for Promoting Quality of Life for the Elderly Through Music Therapy Activities in Maha Sarakham Province 2026-03-23T17:39:26+07:00 Yotsapan Pantasri yotsapan.p@msu.ac.th <p>This academic consists purposes to present guidelines for promoting the quality of life of the elderly through music therapy activities in a community context. The study examines a project promoting the quality of life for the elderly through music therapy in Maha Sarakham Province, which involved 60 elderly individuals in Tambon Koeng Mueang Maha Sarakham District. The project's concept is based on holistic health care encompassing physical, mental, emotional and social dimensions, under the concept of Active Ageing. This is achieved through the design of three music therapy activities: singing to stimulate memory and create emotional happiness; playing simple instruments to promote concentration and body coordination and physical movement to music to develop physical fitness and social relationships. The analysis revealed that music therapy activities contributed to promoting the well-being of the elderly in three main dimensions: physical, mental and emotional and social. The elderly showed improved mobility and balance, brighter moods, reduced anxiety, better group relationships and a greater sense of community belonging. Furthermore, the design of continuous activities, appropriate to the elderly's capabilities and opportunities for community participation were key factors in achieving sustainable positive outcomes. The knowledge gained from the project indicates that music therapy can be a tool for promoting holistic well-being of the elderly at the community level and can be appropriately applied as a guideline for developing quality of life promotion activities for the elderly in other areas.</p> 2026-06-28T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/286218 Factors Associated with the Failure of the Justice System 2026-04-03T12:08:07+07:00 Pakin Chotewetsin pakin_ch@hotmail.com <p>This academic article aims to analyze and synthesize factors related to the failure of the justice system. These factors include 1) Systemic factors contributing to electoral corruption within the justice system, the abuse of power for personal or group gain or discrimination against the underprivileged 2) Structural factors stemming from inefficient organizational structures and mechanisms, excessive internal organizational focus, patronage systems and political, powerful or influential interference, leading to unfair law enforcement, inequality and difficulty for citizens to access justice, resulting in a lack of public trust in the justice system 3) Conflict factors, often influenced by political power within the justice system, particularly the police, undermining the independence and fairness of law enforcement, prioritizing compliance over equal adherence to the rule of law, leading to a lack of public trust and perceived injustice 4) Practice factors, stemming from organizational cultural limitations, insufficient oversight in certain operational procedures, lack of technology or its adoption and unequal legal practices, all contributing to a lack of public trust in the Thai justice system and 5) Privileged rule of law factors. Law enforcement is not driven by the principle of equality or the rule of law, but rather by the use of law as a tool for governance or to legitimize the elite. Legal rhetoric or pretexts are created to protect powerful perpetrators, particularly in politically motivated cases.</p> 2026-06-28T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/288627 Editorial and Table of Contents 2026-06-28T18:14:59+07:00 Editorial and Table of Contents sanowa_cmu@hotmail.com <p>Editorial and Table of Contents</p> 2026-06-28T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/288628 Appendix and Article Writing Form 2026-06-28T18:16:42+07:00 Appendix and Article Writing Form sanowa_cmu@hotmail.com <p>Appendix and Article Writing Form</p> 2026-06-28T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/285091 The Development of a Flipped Classroom Learning Management Model on Ram Na Phat Si Nuan for Students at the College of Dramatic Arts 2026-02-24T00:04:48+07:00 Supaporn Piamnongnuth pop3577_love@hotmail.co.th <p>The purposes of this research were 1. to design a flipped classroom learning model on Ram Na Phat Sin Nuan with efficiency based on the 80/80 criterion and 2. to examine the learning achievement of students at the College of Dramatic Arts before and after the implementation of the flipped classroom learning model on Ram Na Phat Sin Nuan.

The imposition of administrative penalties aims to punish those who violate laws or administrative orders for the benefit of providing public services, while criminal penalties are intended to punish acts that endanger public order and social peace 2) a comparison between Section 80, the Factory Act B.E. 2535 (1992) and environmental laws of the United States and the Commonwealth of Australia reveals that the Factory Act and the laws of both countries establish a permitting system for wastewater discharge. They impose duties on pollution sources to record and report the operation of wastewater treatment systems, as well as to disclose such information to the public. In most cases, the penalties are fines only. Furthermore, the Commonwealth of Australia provides a variety of alternative measures prior to prosecution 3) The main cause of the enforcement problem under Section 80, concerning the collection of data and reporting on the operation of wastewater treatment systems, arises from the lack of awareness among pollution source owners, coupled with disproportionately severe penalties relative to the nature of the offense and 4) the key recommendations for amending the Enhancement and Conservation of National Environmental Quality Act B.E. 2535 (1992) comprise (1) Introduce provisions requiring wastewater discharge into public water bodies to be subject to authorization and impose duties on pollution source owners to record and report the operation of wastewater treatment systems (2) Introduce a provision requiring the disclosure of information on the operation of wastewater treatment systems and (3)Amend the penalties under Section 80 to penal regulatory fines, while introducing alternative measures prior to prosecuting offenders.</p> 2026-05-11T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/285718 The Development of the Programs to Strengthens in Structional Leadership of School Adminstrators under Nakhon Ratchasima Primary Education Service Area Office 1 2026-03-15T22:16:23+07:00 Nichaphathr Wanchit panlovely@gmail.com <p>This research consists purposes were 1. to examine the current conditions, desirable conditions and priority needs of instructional leadership among school administrators and 2. to develop a program to strengthen instructional leadership of school administrators.

Furthermore, the model fit test using the F-statistic showed that the model was statistically significant (F = 128.75, Sig. = 0.000), reflecting that at least one independent variable significantly influenced the dependent variable at the 0.05 level of statistical significance.</p> 2026-06-03T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/286102 Legal Measures on the Administration of Inherited Property: A Case Study of Car Ownership Transfer 2026-04-02T20:26:50+07:00 Teetach Sangpratum teetach.saa@gmail.com <p>The purposes of this study were 1. to examine the concepts and theories related to the registration of the transfer of inherited vehicles in cases where there is no court order appointing an estate administrator and no will 2. to study the laws governing the registration of the transfer of inherited vehicles in Thailand and in foreign countries and 3. to analyze the legal problems concerning the application of regulatory measures in the registration of the transfer of inherited vehicles in Thailand in cases where there is no court order appointing an estate administrator and no will. This study employed a qualitative research approach by examining primary sources, such as laws and legal provisions, as well as secondary sources, including legal textbooks, research reports, theses, academic articles and other related documents. The collected data from these various sources were subsequently analyzed using content analysis. The findings reveal that 1) according to the concepts and theories on regulatory measures for the registration of the transfer of inherited vehicles, such matters concern the relationship between the state and the public registration must be supported by law and the state has the authority and duty to prescribe legal measures and to supervise and review registration and the exercise of power appropriately 2) the laws governing the registration of the transfer of inherited vehicles in the French Republic, Japan and the Kingdom of the Netherlands are clearly and specifically prescribed and sufficiently effective, whereas Thailand also has relevant laws but they are not yet sufficiently effective and 3) although Thailand has established legal provisions concerning the registration of the transfer of inherited vehicles, some state officials exercise discretion by failing to proceed with such registration, and the revocation of unlawful or erroneous registrations remains complicated and problematic</p> 2026-06-03T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/286375 The Study of Innovative Leadership of School Administrators in the Digital Era under the Jurisdiction of Secondary Education Office Service Area Ubon Ratchathani Amnat Charoen 2026-04-02T15:13:13+07:00 Rapheephat Ladsritha ladsritha@gmail.com <p>The purposes of this research were 1. to investigate the innovative leadership of school administrators in the digital era under the Ubon Ratchathani Amnat Charoen Secondary Educational Service Area Office 2. to compare the innovative leadership of school administrators in the digital era under the Ubon Ratchathani Amnat Charoen Secondary Educational Service Area Office, classified by educational qualifications, work experience and school size and 3. to examine guidelines for developing the innovative leadership of school administrators in the digital era under the Ubon Ratchathani Amnat Charoen Secondary Educational Service Area Office.

This study employed a quantitative research design. The research instrument was a Questionnaire and Evaluation Form. The sample group consisted of 17 co-instructors and students from the Faculty of Arts Education, Bunditpatanasilpa Institute, who studied during the academic years 2020–2023. The participants were selected through purposive sampling. The data collected from the questionnaires were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including percentage, mean and standard deviation. The research findings revealed that 1) The transmission process consisted of three major stages: the preparatory stage for creating imagery and readiness, the instructional stage involving individualized physical adjustment and posture refinement, and the reflective stage for skill assessment and evaluation. A distinctive technique was the use of aesthetic rhetoric in refining body angles according to learners’ different physical characteristics. Data obtained from the focus group discussion confirmed that these individualized techniques enabled learners to overcome physical limitations and accurately embody the traditional conventions of the Monkey Khon performance and 2) The students’ overall satisfaction with the transmission process of the dance movements and teaching techniques of the Long Song Tone dance by Mr. Viroj Yoosawat was at the highest level (x̅= 4.65, S.D. = 0.42), accounting for 95.31 percent.

This study employed a mixed-methods research approach incorporating both quantitative and qualitative methods. The research instruments consisted of tests, interviews, observations, learning management competency assessments, and satisfaction assessments. The sample group comprised 12 participants selected through purposive sampling. Data collected from the tests, learning management competency assessments and satisfaction assessments were analyzed using descriptive statistics through a statistical software package, including percentage, mean and standard deviation. Meanwhile, data collected from the interviews and observations were analyzed using content analysis. The research findings revealed that 1) The implementation of the development strategy, particularly workshops, resulted in all teachers achieving higher post-development outcomes compared to pre-development 2) The supervision and follow-up strategy established criteria requiring participants to achieve at least a high level of competence in learning management for developing vocational pottery skills among students with intellectual disabilities. In the first cycle, 6 participants met the development criteria at a high level, while 2 participants did not meet the criteria and remained at a moderate level.

This study employed a qualitative research approach. The research instrument consisted of semi-structured interviews. The target group comprised 12 participants selected through purposive sampling. Data collected from the semi-structured interviews and relevant documents were analyzed using content analysis. The findings revealed that 1) The management system was characterized as a semi-formal system comprising three interrelated dimensions of governance mechanisms operating at the system level. Structural and procedural mechanisms functioned as the foundational framework for organizational operations however, they remained limited in terms of systematic integration and consistency. In contrast, behavioral mechanisms were embedded in the actual practices and situational actions of personnel in day-to-day operations 2) Behavioral mechanisms played a crucial role as system-level mechanisms by linking, reinforcing and compensating for the limitations of structural and procedural mechanisms, particularly in situations where the organizational system had not yet evolved into clearly standardized practices and 3) Service consistency functioned as a mediating mechanism between the operation of governance mechanisms and service quality outcomes. This finding reflects that service quality in small service organizations does not rely solely on formalized systems, but rather emerges from the interrelationships and integrated functioning of structural, procedural and behavioral mechanisms at the operational level. In other words, when structural, procedural and behavioral mechanisms operate in a coordinated and appropriate manner, they contribute to the maintenance of service quality in practice.</p> 2026-06-08T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/286697 Learning Styles and Preference of Physical Education at Rattanabundit University 2026-04-15T20:25:58+07:00 Wattana Suthphan luxsamee@g.swu.ac.th <p>This research consists purposes were 1. to examine the learning styles of physical education students at Rattana Bundit University based on Grasha and Riechmann’s concept and 2. to investigate their learning preferences based on Fleming and Mills’ concept. This research employed a quantitative research design. The research instruments consisted of a Learning Style Survey and a Learning Pattern Survey. The sample group comprised students in the Physical Education Program at Rattana Bundit University, selected based on the Krejcie and Morgan (1970) sample size determination table and proportionate stratified random sampling. The sample included 39 first-year students, 44 second-year students, 30 third-year students, and 27 fourth-year students, totaling 140 participants. The data collected from the research instruments were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including percentage, mean and standard deviation. The research findings were as follows 1) Learning Styles (Grasha &amp; Riechmann) When categorized by academic year (1–4), the most prominent learning style across all years was the Collaborative style, which ranked first at a high level. All years exhibited Avoidant, Dependent, and Competitive styles at a moderate level. Fourth-year students showed slightly higher tendencies toward Independent (x̅= 3.65) and Participant (M = 3.65) styles compared to other years. In contrast, second-year students had lower average scores in several dimensions, falling mostly at a moderate level, except for the Collaborative style, which remained high and 2) The individual learning styles of students in the Physical Education Program revealed that, overall, second-year to fourth-year students predominantly preferred auditory learning as their primary learning style. In contrast, first-year students were the only group that demonstrated a strong preference for visual and symbolic learning. Furthermore, it was observed that as students progressed to higher academic years, the proportion of learners who preferred visual and symbolic learning (V) tended to decrease significantly, while preferences for auditory (A) and read/write (R) learning styles gradually increased, respectively.</p> 2026-06-08T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/285579 Legal Issues Regarding Protection of Victims and Witnesses in Cybercrime Cases 2026-03-04T22:14:12+07:00 Prapatsorn Wetthawong worachat_dat@hotmail.com <p>This research consists purposes were 1. to study the concepts, theories, and principles relating to the protection of victims and witnesses in online crime cases 2. to study the legal measures concerning the protection of victims and witnesses in online crime cases in foreign countries and Thailand 3. to analyze legal problems relating to the protection of victims and witnesses in online crime cases and 4. to study guidelines for resolving legal problems relating to the protection of victims and witnesses in online crime cases. This study employed a qualitative research methodology by collecting data from various relevant documents. The data gathered from the related documents were then analyzed through content analysis. The findings revealed that 1) Regarding the definitions of victims and witnesses in online crime cases, it was found that Sections 309 to 313 of the Penal Code and Sections 172 to 175 of the Criminal Procedure Code establish an interpretative framework for victims and witnesses based on crimes involving physical acts, face-to-face confrontation and clearly identifiable time and place. However, online crimes may occur without direct confrontation, may involve the use of aliases, or may be committed across borders, while causing rapid and continuous harm to reputation, personal data and mental well-being. Consequently, adherence to the traditional interpretative framework results in certain victims in online crime cases being unable to clearly obtain legal recognition of their status or access protection measures under the Witness Protection Act B.E. 2546 (2003), particularly in emerging forms of risk such as doxxing and cyber harassment 2) Regarding remedies for victims in online crime cases, it was found that although the Penal Code and the Computer Crime Act B.E. 2550 (2007) and its amendments can impose criminal liability in various cases, such as child pornography, revenge porn, and deepfake offenses, there remains a lack of specific remedial mechanisms, including the rapid removal or suspension of harmful data, reputation rehabilitation, and continuous psychological assistance. At the same time, the Compensation for Victims and Compensation and Expenses for the Accused in Criminal Cases Act B.E. 2544 (2001) limits compensation primarily to damages relating to life, bodily harm or liberty, thereby making psychological harm, reputational damage and privacy violations difficult to remedy. Furthermore, the Personal Data Protection Act B.E. 2562 (2019) contains exemptions for the performance of state duties, resulting in the absence of systematic mechanisms to review the necessity and proportionality of data usage in criminal proceedings 3) Regarding the protection of victims and witnesses during the investigation process, although Section 6 of the Witness Protection Act B.E. 2546 (2003) permits witness protection from the investigation stage onward, the interpretation of the term “danger” remains grounded in offline forms of risk. As a result, online crime-related risks, such as the disclosure of personal information, cyber harassment or reputational attacks, are not regarded as urgent threats requiring immediate protection and 4) A draft amendment to the Witness Protection in Criminal Cases Act (No. …) B.E. …. was proposed, consisting of: (1) Principle: This amendment to the law on witness protection in criminal cases aims to define the term “online crime case” and (2) Rationale: Due to the evolving nature of online crimes, which differ significantly from traditional forms of crime, victims and witnesses are increasingly exposed to cyber risks, including harassment, disclosure of personal information, reputational attacks, and repeated victimization through digital systems.</p> 2026-06-14T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/285580 Legal Problems Regarding the Use of Artificial Intelligence as a Tool for Criminal Activity 2026-03-04T22:09:08+07:00 Pemika Wiwatthanapongpun wpemikaa@gmail.com <p>This research consists purposes were 1. to investigate concepts, theories and principles related to the use of artificial intelligence as a tool for criminal activity 2. to explore legal measures related to the use of artificial intelligence as a tool for criminal activity of Thailand and foreign countries 3. to analyze legal problems of the use of artificial intelligence as a tool for criminal activity and 4. to propose guidelines for resolving legal issues concerning the use of artificial intelligence as a tool for committing crimes. This is a qualitative research study conducted through the examination of various related documents, including research reports, conferences, seminars, theses and articles from both Thailand and abroad. The data collected from these documents were analyzed using content analysis. The research findings revealed that 1) The use of artificial intelligence in contemporary society has caused profound structural changes to the economic system, society and public administration, particularly in the legal dimension, which has traditionally been designed based on a human-centered concept. The capability of artificial intelligence to learn, analyze and make decisions autonomously to a certain extent has resulted in criminal activities becoming more complex, concealed and capable of causing widespread impacts. Consequently, traditional law enforcement mechanisms are no longer able to effectively address such challenges 2) The study found that (1) regarding the definition of the use of artificial intelligence as a tool for committing crimes, the relevant legal provisions are contained in the Penal Code and the Computer Crime Act B.E. 2550 (2007), as amended, particularly Sections 5, 7 and 14 of the aforementioned Act and (2) regarding users, developers and owners of artificial intelligence systems as instrumentalities in the commission of crimes, it was found that the Penal Code clearly establishes criminal liability based on a human-centered principle. Section 2 stipulates that no person shall be criminally punished unless the act is prescribed by law as an offense and subject to punishment, while Section 59 provides that criminal liability must involve either intent or negligence 3) Regarding liability in cases where artificial intelligence is used as a tool for committing crimes, the study found that Section 2 of the Penal Code establishes the principle that no person shall be punished unless the act is defined by law as an offense and subject to punishment, while Section 59 requires criminal liability to be based on intent or negligence, which are mental states legally recognized only in human beings. As a result, artificial intelligence, which lacks consciousness and cannot possess intent or negligence within the meaning of the law, cannot be considered a direct offender and 4) The Draft Act on the Prevention and Suppression of the Use of Artificial Intelligence as a Tool for Committing Crimes B.E. …. consists of the following key provisions (1) definitions (2) general provisions (3) supervisory committee (4) duties of service providers (5) offenses relating to the use of artificial intelligence as a tool and liability (6) protection of rights and (7) liability of juristic persons and administrative penalties.</p> 2026-06-15T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/286622 Developing Practical Pong Lang Skills in Elective Courses Using Davies’ Teaching Model Combined with Skill Exercises for Vocational Certificate Students at Kalasin College of Dramatic Arts Bunditpatanasilpa of Fine Arts 2026-04-15T13:24:43+07:00 Phichamon Suebsing phichamon2425@gmail.com <p>This research consists purposes were 1. to develop lesson plans for the pong lang performance skills using Davies’ instructional model combined with skill exercises 2. to enhance students’ performance skills and 3. to compare students’ learning achievement before and after instruction.

The research instrument consisted of interview forms and the target group comprised four key informants selected through purposive sampling. Data collected from documentary sources and interviews were analyzed using content analysis. The findings revealed that 1) The legend surrounding the construction of Phra That Si That Pramanya located in Champi Sub-district, Si That District, Udon Thani Province, is an oral folk narrative that corresponds closely with archaeological evidence and local beliefs. This legend has therefore exerted a profound influence on the thoughts, culture, traditions and ways of life of the local people, remaining deeply embedded within the community and 2) The creative dance thesis entitled Satthakarn Si That Pramanya was designed into three performance segments. The first segment portrays the origin of the journey to Phu Kamphra and the royal procession of the ruler of Peng Chang Nakhon Rat, who brought treasures to participate in the construction of Phra That Phanom. The artistic elements, including costume design, props, stage setting and musical style, were inspired by Khmer art. The second segment depicts the king of Peng Chang Nakhon Rat proclaiming the construction of the stupa in accordance with his faith and devotion. The musical composition, costumes, props and stage setting continue to reflect Khmer artistic traditions, while conveying emotions of beauty, reverence, and deep faith in Buddhism and the third segment portrays the townspeople gathering to worship and celebrate the consecration festival of Phra That Si Pramanya. The musical style, costumes, props and stage setting in this segment are based on Dvaravati art. In the concluding section, Khmer and Dvaravati artistic traditions are harmoniously integrated and interconnected, while still preserving the distinct cultural identities of both the Dvaravati and Khmer traditions.</p> 2026-06-16T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/286351 Aviation Value Chain of Low-Cost Airlines in Thailand 2026-04-02T16:37:03+07:00 Sorada Pahuwattanakorn sorada.pa@northbkk.ac.th <p>This research consists purposes were 1. to examine the importance level of aviation value chain components of low-cost airlines in Thailand and 2. to investigate the aviation value chain factors that influence the operational performance of low-cost airlines in Thailand. This quantitative study utilized a questionnaire as the primary research instrument. The sample comprised 384 passengers of low-cost airlines, with the sample size determined according to the Krejcie and Morgan (1970) sampling table. Data obtained from the questionnaires were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including percentages, means and standard deviations, together with multiple regression analysis. The findings indicated that 1) the overall importance level of the aviation value chain components of low-cost airlines in Thailand was rated at a high level (x̄ = 4.22, S.D. = 0.605). When considering each dimension individually, flight safety was rated at the highest level (x̄ = 4.56, S.D. = 0.526), followed by pricing and cost management at a high level (x̄ = 4.22, S.D. = 0.593), passenger responsiveness at a high level (x̄ = 4.17, S.D. = 0.612), route management at a high level (x̄ = 4.10, S.D. = 0.626) and flight connectivity convenience at a high level (x̄ = 4.03, S.D. = 0.673), respectively and 2) The aviation value chain factors influencing the operational performance of low-cost airlines in Thailand indicated that all five dimensions of the aviation value chain represent critical determinants affecting passenger satisfaction and airline selection decisions. These factors can be linked to the development of Marketing 5.0 innovations, which integrate advanced technologies with customer-centric strategies to enhance service quality, operational efficiency and personalized passenger experiences. Such an approach enables airlines to create sustainable competitive advantages and strengthen their market positioning in the increasingly dynamic aviation industry.</p> 2026-06-17T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/286340 The Development of Experience-Based Instructional Model for Enhancing Critical Thinking Skills of Mathayomsuksa 4 Students in Thai Language Subject on Analytical Reading 2026-04-03T12:04:02+07:00 Yupin Soput yupinso430@gmail.com <p>This research consists purposes were 1. to develop an experience-based instructional model for enhancing critical thinking skills of Mathayomsuksa 4 students in Thai Language subject on analytical reading and 2. to investigate the effects of the developed model, including comparing students' critical thinking skills before and after instruction and examining students' satisfaction.

This qualitative research was conducted through documentary research, drawing upon relevant sources including books, textbooks, academic documents, research studies and related electronic media. In addition, the study employed the conceptual framework of the PDCA (Plan–Do–Check–Act) quality management cycle. Data obtained from documentary sources and the PDCA framework were analyzed using content analysis. The findings revealed can be summarized into four key aspects. First, regarding the preservation, conservation and transmission of Thai arts, culture and local cultural heritage, the study found that communities in Maha Sarakham Province continue to possess strong knowledge and skills in traditional weaving and local handicrafts. In particular, handwoven textiles featuring distinctive local patterns, as well as bamboo-strip weaving and Ban Phang reed mat weaving, clearly reflect the community’s way of life, beliefs, and cultural identity. The implementation of the project facilitated the tangible transfer of indigenous knowledge from local wisdom holders to younger generations through hands-on workshops and collaborative learning activities. Second, in terms of promoting the participation of students, university personnel and community members, the findings revealed that involvement throughout all stages of the development process from planning and design to production and evaluation encouraged knowledge exchange between the academic sector and local communities. This process enhanced participants’ awareness of the value of local arts and cultural heritage and fostered a shared sense of ownership in their preservation and development. Third, concerning the integration of arts and cultural knowledge with academic service, the study found that traditional knowledge could be effectively applied in conjunction with contemporary design concepts. In particular, creative approaches were successfully integrated with local materials such as handwoven textiles, reed mats and woven handicrafts, resulting in an integrated learning process that concretely linked theoretical knowledge with practical application.</p> 2026-06-20T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/286740 The Development of Teacher Competency in Active Art Learning Management Using Davies' Model of Practical Skill Instruction at Nachuakpittayasan School 2026-04-16T22:04:55+07:00 Ekkasit Daengnar xeksiththidaengna30@gmail.com <p>This research consists purposes were 1. to develop teachers’ knowledge and understanding of active art learning management using Davies’ practical skills instructional model at Nachuakpittayasan School 2. to enhance teachers’ skills in active art learning management using Davies’ practical skills instructional model and 3. to examine teachers’ satisfaction toward the development of competencies in active art learning management using the same model.

This study employed a qualitative research design. Data were collected through a documentary research approach, drawing upon various relevant sources, including legal textbooks, books, academic articles, research reports, theses, seminar papers, statutory laws, and judicial decisions from courts in both Thailand and other countries. The collected data were subsequently analyzed using content analysis. The findings reveal that 1) the concept of human dignity is widely recognized in many developed countries as a supreme constitutional human right and an inviolable value. States have a direct duty to respect and protect human dignity. However, in practice, violations of human dignity often arise from the exercise of state authority 2) When comparing remedial measures, it was found that Thai courts still adhere to the principle of compensating actual damages, which is often limited to tangible damages to property or physical harm that can be clearly quantified. In contrast, other countries have more advanced mechanisms, such as punitive damages in the United States, which serve as a deterrent against repeated violations by state officials. While Germany and France do not explicitly provide for punitive damages, they have established strict interpretative principles to protect individuals from being devalued 3) At present, it was observed that the Thai Administrative Court has shown a positive trend in recognizing the principle of human dignity as a constitutional right. The court interprets violations of human dignity to include treating individuals as mere objects or actions that diminish human value, aligning with international standards. Nevertheless, a significant issue remains the lack of clear guidelines for determining compensation for intangible damages, resulting in inadequate remedies for emotional distress and the devaluation of dignity and 4) Based on these findings, the research recommends amending the Liability for Wrongful Acts of Officials Act B.E. 2539 to allow courts to award punitive or special damages in cases of severe violations of human dignity. It also suggests that courts expand their interpretation of laws to provide broader protection for this fundamental right. Furthermore, the General Assembly of Judges of the Supreme Administrative Court should establish clear guidelines or regulations to set standards for determining compensation in such cases. These measures aim to reduce inconsistencies in judicial discretion, ensure fairness, and enhance the protection of human dignity in the Thai legal system, making it more concrete and effective in line with international standards.</p> 2026-06-22T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/285676 Stakeholder Needs and PLO Analysis of the Bachelor of Education Program in Early Childhood Education Surin Rajabhat University 2026-03-16T23:38:09+07:00 Phongnapa Phromkat phrhmkesphxngnpha@gmail.com <p>This research consists purposes were 1. to examine stakeholders’ needs concerning the competencies and attributes of graduates in the Bachelor of Education Program in Early Childhood Education at Surindra Rajabhat University and 2. to analyze the Expected Learning Outcomes (ELOs) of the program.

This study employed a quantitative research design. The research instrument was a data recording form obtained from the Telematics system. The sample consisted of truck trips used for the transportation of fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) within the study area. A total of 400 trips were selected using stratified sampling based on delivery time periods. The data collected from the research instrument were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including mean and standard deviation. Hypothesis testing was conducted using One-Way Analysis of Variance (One-Way ANOVA) and Multiple Linear Regression Analysis. The results indicate that 1) delivery time windows significantly affect CO<sub>2</sub> emissions at the .01 level, with peak hours producing the highest emissions, followed by off-peak periods, and the lowest emissions occurring during nighttime and 2) travel distance, engine idle time and the level of intelligent route management significantly influence CO<sub>2</sub> emissions, jointly explaining 78.4% of the variance (R² = 0.784). The findings suggest that optimizing delivery time windows, implementing intelligent routing technologies and reducing engine idle time are critical strategies for minimizing greenhouse gas emissions in the logistics sector.

This study adopted a qualitative research study using a structured doctrinal legal matrix as a primary research instrument to facilitate a comparative analysis of international tax standards and domestic tax legislations. Based on this analysis, the results indicate the following 1) Two types of adoption model are used for the Income Inclusion Rule and the Qualified Domestic Minimum Top-Up Tax, including the early adopter model used by Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and Vietnam (which include them in their domestic statutes) and older anti-avoidance rules used by the Philippines, Brunei, Cambodia, Laos and Myanmar 2) the application of domestic anti–base erosion laws significantly conflicts in the region, notably increasing compliance costs for multinational enterprises due to conflicting and duplicative interactions between the GloBE rules and domestic anti-avoidance regimes (including controlled foreign company rules and 3) legal and policy measures as suggested in this study must be adopted to minimise the risks that the GloBE model rules pose in terms of fiscal impact on ASEAN countries’ economies so as to protect the fiscal sovereignty and competitive advantages of the ASEAN region. These measures include expenditure-based incentives as an alternative to conventional tax holidays to encourage new investment and stimulate economic development.</p> 2026-06-26T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/285807 Improving Undergraduates’ Civic Responsibility and Learning Achievement through an Integrated Instructional Model: Evidence from a Chinese University 2026-03-18T23:31:42+07:00 Weina Hong 61171144@qq.com <p>This research consists purposes were 1. to compare the differences in civic responsibility between the experimental group and the control group after the experiment and 2. to compare the differences in learning achievement between the experimental group and the control group after the experiment.

(2) For learning achievement, the experimental group achieved a higher post-test total score than the control group, with a mean difference of 7.36 points (t=7.12, p&lt;0.001, Cohen’s d=1.30), also indicating a large effect size. The results verified the model’s effects on enhancing Chinese undergraduates’ civic responsibility and learning achievement, providing practical foundation for teaching ideological and political courses in higher education.</p> 2026-06-26T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University https://so02.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/soc-rmu/article/view/286041 Communicative Challenges and Strategies in English During Cultural Workshops for International Students 2026-03-23T17:35:27+07:00 Narakorn Janlawong Narakorn.ja@udru.ac.th <p>This research consists purposes were 1. to identify the main communicative challenges Vietnamese international students experienced when using English during Thai cultural workshops 2. to examine the strategies students used to cope with communication breakdowns in English-mediated workshop interaction and 3. to explore perceived outcomes of participation from student and instructor perspectives. This study employed a qualitative-dominant mixed-methods design. The research instruments included a pre-workshop questionnaire, a post-workshop questionnaire, semi-structured student interviews, short instructor interviews, and observation checklists. The sample group consisted of Vietnamese international students and workshop instructors participating in Thai cultural workshops at Udon Thani Rajabhat University, including 48 students in the pre-workshop survey, 31 students in the post-workshop survey, 14 students in semi-structured interviews, 4 instructors in short interviews and 3 observed workshops: Muay Thai, Thai music and pottery-making. Quantitative data were analyzed using percentage, mean, and standard deviation, while qualitative data from interviews and observations were analyzed through thematic analysis. The research results found that 1) the main communicative challenges were limited vocabulary (54.20% in the pre-workshop survey; 67.70% in the post-workshop survey), pronunciation difficulties (29.20%; 45.20%) and listening-related difficulty associated with accent and speech rate 2) students mainly used body language and gestures (75.00%; 74.20%), translation applications (39.60%; 74.20%), peer support (29.00%), and clarification from instructors (25.80%) to maintain communication, while avoidance of speaking decreased to 3.20% after the workshops and 3) students reported improved confidence in using English after participation, with post-workshop confidence at a moderate level (x̄ = 3.26, S.D. = 1.03), 87.10% reporting increased confidence and overall strategy effectiveness rated highly (x̄ = 4.00, S.D. = 0.93). The findings indicate that English-mediated cultural workshops can support EFL communication development when instructors provide clear scaffolding, vocabulary support, demonstrations, and structured opportunities for clarification.</p> 2026-06-26T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Social Science for Local Development Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University
