Building on the traditional religious and psychological notion of the Qareen as a spiritual and psychological companion reflecting the inner self, the paper reconceptualizes the Cyber-Qareen as a virtual and algorithmically mediated extension of human identity within intelligent interactive environments. The study is based on an analytical review of Arabic and international literature and proposes a tripartite interpretive model (psychological–technological–ethical). It examines the implications of this model for identity, behavior, and awareness, emphasizing the necessity of developing ethical and educational practices to manage the Cyber-Qareen responsibly in education, psychotherapy, and digital media.</em></p> <p><em>This study presents an expanded theoretical framework for the concept of the Cyber-Qareen in light of contemporary developments in artificial intelligence and cyberpsychology.

This paper presents PULSE, a holistic digital system designed for Personalized Understanding, Learning, and Working Stress Evaluation in modern workplaces. The proposed system integrates non-invasive wearable sensors, IoT devices, and affective computing techniques to continuously monitor physiological, behavioral, and environmental indicators of stress. Advanced machine learning algorithms analyze these multimodal data in real time to detect stress levels, while a personalized e-learning platform delivers adaptive interventions (such as mindfulness exercises and cognitive-behavioral strategies) to help individuals manage stress proactively. A gamified mobile application interfaces with users, providing feedback and motivation to engage in stress-reduction activities. The paper also outlines a pilot study plan in a real workplace environment to evaluate the system’s effectiveness. By combining accurate stress detection with tailored just-in-time support, PULSE aims to promote mental well-being and enhance productivity in the workplace.</em></p> <p><strong><em>&nbsp;</em></strong></p> 2026-06-11T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026
