Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale
Opis:
The paper was aimed at exploring the efficacy of Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) strategies on social anxiety people referring to counseling centers. To do this, the number of 30 people with social anxiety disorder who had referred for counseling was selected as the sample, and completed Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale (1987). The pretest having been administered, 30 people were randomly placed in experimental and control groups respectively. The experimental group received ten sessions of training of neuro-linguistic programming strategies. The interventions were a combination of NLP tools, including the art of self-assertiveness, WACO system, Neuro-linguistic logical level, goal-setting, Switch system, chart sections, rapport, Metal model, encore and modeling. After the interventions were ended, the subjects of both groups were tested with Liebowitz Test twice. The data obtained were examined by using SPSS software ver.17 and statistical independent T Test. Research findings illustrated a significant difference between the experimental and control groups as regards posttest social anxiety scores (P = -0/001). Also, with regards to performance anxiety, a significant difference was seen between the two groups in the posttest (P = -0/001).

Opis:
The future of agriculture is dependent on increase in the use of resources at disposal, it is therefore imperative that strategies to increase agricultural growth should be directed towards increasing efficiency of smallholder farming operations and resource utilization. This study examined the economic efficiency of rice production. Multistage sampling procedure was used to select 240 rice farmers with the aid of a structured questionnaire. Data collected were analyzed with descriptive techniques, Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) and Tobit regression model. The SFA result revealed that input variables such as seed, herbicide and pesticide were positive and had significant effect on rice output. The rice farmers were able to maximize their output by 74% at lowest minimum cost possible. Furthermore, economic efficiency was positively influenced by age, level of education, membership of farmers association, access to public market and access to health facilities while household size, farming experience, bad road condition and distance to nearest market had negative effects. The study concluded that rice farmers were inefficient. Therefore, in order to raise rice production efficiency and improve the livelihood of smallholder farmers, farmers should attend formal and informal education as it is a key policy issue in the study area, farmers should strengthen the existing association structures and organize new farmer’s associations. Also, the local and regional governments were encouraged to provide good road networks, and public market that will enable farmers dispose their produce at attractive places and prices of their choice.

Opis:
The paper presents a study on the environmental impact on the risk of harbour operations. The hydro-meteorological elements have been recognised as the most important safety factors with regard to the ship entrance into the harbour and berthing inside the docks. They are identified as real time, short and long term factors and they all should be considered in the safety assessment of harbour operations. The risk of each operation should be determined on the basis of weather forecast and the modelled prediction of the total water level, surface currents and waves. Several topics have been discussed in the paper with regard to the safe ship approach and navigation inside the harbour. The application of different tools for the prediction of ship performance is presented. The stochastic method for the determination of probability that the ship will navigate within the boundaries of the required navigational width and low speed manoeuvring standards proposed by Panel H-10 SNAME have been considered. The real scale experiments carried out in Port of Gdynia and the several trials performed using the Full Mission Simulator convinced that the open water model tests are necessary for the proper prediction of ship performance during berthing. The program of the proposed open water investigations is presented in the paper. The experimental stand constructed for the tests of ship-berth interactions, in the lake Silm at the Ilawa Ship Handling Training and Research Centre facilities is described.

Opis:
In consideration of limited fossil fuel resources and the prevention of pollutant emissions heating installations are preferred which use renewable energy sources. One such solution involves hot water preparation for large buildings using solar collectors. In this work, the results of a six year experimental investigation of a large-scale system of solar flat collectors are introduced. These collectors are located on the roof of a Cloister of Redemptorists in Tuchow, Poland. On average, the installed collectors covered 37 % of the annual thermal requirement for hot water; for the winter half-year 15.9 % and for the summer half-year 56.5 %. The costs of the hot water preparation in the installation with and without collectors were analysed. The Simple Pay Back Time of investment cost was calculated. Special attention was paid to factors which influence the coverage of thermal needs by the solar installation. The reduction in pollutant emissions from combustion of natural gas resulting from the use of solar collectors, was also calculated.
W obecnych czasach preferuje się rozwiązania instalacji grzewczych wykorzystujących odnawialne źródła energii, z uwagi na ograniczone zasoby paliw kopalnych oraz zapobieganie emisji zanieczyszczeń do atmosfery. Jednym z takich rozwiązań są instalacje przygotowania ciepłej wody w dużych budynkach wspomagane kolektorami słonecznymi. W pracy przedstawiono wyniki 6-letnich badań eksploatacyjnych wielkoskalowej instalacji kolektorów słonecznych płaskich zlokalizowanych na dachu klasztoru redemptorystów w Tuchowie w Polsce. Kolektory słoneczne pokrywały średnio 37 % potrzeb cieplnych instalacji ciepłej wody w skali roku, w półroczu zimowym 15.9 %, a w półroczu letnim 56.5 %. Przeanalizowano koszty przygotowania ciepłej wody w instalacji z kolektorami i bez, oraz obliczono czas zwrotu nakładów inwestycyjnych. Zwrócono uwagę na czynniki mogące wpływać na stopień pokrycia potrzeb cieplnych przez instalację słoneczną oraz obliczono redukcję ilość zanieczyszczeń powstających przy spalaniu gazu ziemnego, dzięki zastosowaniu kolektorów słonecznych.

Opis:
Introduction: Third molars (TMs) are the most frequently impacted teeth due to the frequent lack of space in the dental arch resulting in their malposition or inability to erupt. Partially erupted TMs that cause recurrent inflammatory conditions must be removed. The aim of this study was to assess TM position on panoramic radiographs. Materials and methods: We evaluated 200 panoramic radiographs of patients 18-72 years of age. Teeth were assessed in terms of the presence of dental follicle, cervix/root ratio and root development stage. Maxillary TMs were assessed using the Archer and Pell and Gregory classifications, whereas the mandibular ones according to Pell and Gregory, Winter, IAN and Pederson classifications. Results: 622 TMs were assessed. In the maxilla, the most common type was A-positioned, vertically angulated TM with completely formed root/roots. In the mandible, the most common type was A1-positio- ned, mesioangular TM with completely formed root/roots and without enlarged follicle. According to Pederson’s index, 59.44% TMs were moderately difficult to extract. Most roots were in contact with inferior alveolar nerve. Conclusions: The use of the classifications mentioned above is helpful in assessment of the surgery difficulty level. In the long term this allows to increase the predictability of the procedure and minimize the intra- and post-operative complications.

Aim/purpose – This study aims at investigating the incidence of procedural justice, job satisfaction, and organisational citizenship behaviour (OCB) of employees within small and medium scale enterprises (SMEs) in Nigeria. The main thrust of the study is to provide justification for the possible link between these behavioural factors with a view to establishing their roles in fostering SMEs. Design/methodology/approach – A cross-sectional survey design was employed to elicit information from 1420 employees randomly selected from 71 surveyed companies. The responses from the questionnaire were analysed employing correlation and hierarchical regression analysis. Findings – The result showed a significant relationship between procedural justice, job satisfaction, and OCB after controlling for age and gender. The study, therefore, concludes that procedural justice, job satisfaction and citizenship behaviour of SMEs employees are imperative for the success and ultimate survival of SMEs. Research implications/limitations – Understanding the impediments to the growth of SMEs in developing nations require an indebt understanding of some behavioural factors. The study was limited to SMEs in Lagos, Nigeria. Original/value/contribution – The study recommends the need for managers of SMEs to monitor these three behavioural outcomes in other to ensure the sustainability of their businesses. This would in the long run, improve an employment, and reduce poverty. It also provides statistical norms for researchers.

Opis:
Large scale mines acknowledge that their continuous existence in indigenous communities is threatened without the cooperation and support of local people. In recent times, large-scale mines have attempted to secure Social License to Operate (SLO) and ensure sustainable development (SD) by reconciling business interests with local needs and aspirations. Accomplishing local cooperation and support without threatening business interest remains a top priority for the large-scale mines. Community engagement forms part of the broader Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) policy initiatives which are often promoted as a way of enhancing sustainable development. This paper examines the local perceptions of the design and application of Golden Star Resources' (GSR) community engagement program. This paper contends that this community engagement model has a positive impact on conflict management regardless of age, sex, education, marital status and occupation of participants. However, presently the model remains symbolic and has not yet attain the status of a real functional strategy since many of local grievances that result in clashes are unresolved. Furthermore, it is believed that GSR's community engagement program is not adequately developed, systematic or moulded to achieve the exact or intended community relation. This paper further contends that the dominant sources and causes of conflict in Prestea is land use conflicts and environmental impact issues.

Opis:
On the discovery of gold reserves in 14 states in Sudan, traditional gold mining suddenly started to flourish and hundreds of thousands of laymen became engaged in gold extraction. The new source of revenue generation added much to the empty treasury and the loss in petroleum revenue due to cessation of the south in 2011 could thus be compensated. Since gold extraction by artisanal and small-scale gold mining does not require much finance or advanced technology, it suited unskilled workers and many young people found their way into the new business. Although gold extraction generates high revenues, the use of mercury in gold extraction poses much threat to the environment and general health of miners and the surrounding areas. The research tries to investigate the effects of traditional gold mining in Alebedia area, Berber Locality in the River Nile State. The investigation includes A/ the effects of extraction methods on the environment and general health. B/ the level of education and its distribution within the miners and how it affected the awareness of the miners about the dangers of mining activities. C/ the period of stay that miners spend in the mining area its contribution on the awareness about the dangers and diseases inflicted on the miners, D/ the effects of traditional gold mining activities on natural environmental impacts and E/ the effects of the meteorological and topographical factors, the distribution and concentration of mercury in the area and their effects on the environment and general health. The research adopted the techniques of using random sampling and quantitative qualitative in addition to the analytical techniques. The research finally concluded that traditional gold mining has positive effects on the economic side and negative effects on the environment and general health.

Opis:
Automated generalization is highly desired for effective map production. This research focuses on the initial stage of generalization, namely object selection. The study aims to conduct river network automatic selection based on map specifications contained in the Minister of Internal Affairs and Administration regulation. The research covers river network selection from the General Geographic Objects Database from 1:250,000 to 1:500,000 detail level. Within the research scope, three selection variants were designed. The first was a basic variant that only included the implementation of the specifications contained in the regulation. The other two were experimental variants: an extended variant and an extended-modified variant with the parameters and data enrichment proposed by the authors. The extended variant has been supplemented with the Id_MPHP index usage, derived from the Map of Hydrographic Division of Poland (MPHP), which defines the hierarchy of watercourses in the river network. The extended-modified variant was implemented according to the guidelines of the regulation, with the use of the Id_MPHP index and additionally with the help of the parameter denoting “priority” watercourses, which was assigned by the authors. The results of the work constitute the generalization models designed in ArcMap 10.8. with the use of Model Builder functionality as well as the maps presenting the selection variants output visualizations. The results were compared visually as well as verified with the reference atlas map generalized by an experienced cartographer. As a result, the map specifications concerning the selection process presented in the regulation proved to be insufficient to generalize river networks properly. The variants proposed in this research made it possible to improve the selection results and enabled the automation of the river selection process. Additional specifications and parameters proposed in this work may constitute an essential supplement to the guidelines contained in the regulation.

Opis:
Various methods are known to mitigate or prevent scale formation in pipes, rather by chemical addition, e.g., anti-scaling substances, or physically which includes ultrasonic or nanofiltration (NF). Nanofiltration membranes have a selectivity for the multivalent charged ions, so monovalent ions will pass the membrane partly and multivalent ions will be rejected completely. Chemical addition to prevent scale formation is based on justifying water parameters such as pH, alkalinity, and concentrations of ions that form the building units of scale crystal. In order to mitigate the scaling tendency in water pumped from the Disi aquifer to Amman city along its 345 km pipeline, different studies were conducted using simulated plumbing system. This part of the study is concerned with scale mitigation using nanofiltration and addition of chemicals. Nanofiltration was applied to reduce the hardness that causes scale deposition where it rejected around 70.5% of Ca2+, 71.98% Mg2+, 7.72% K+, 29.0% Na+, 66.63% Cl–, 86.51% NO3 – , 85.72% SO4 2–, and 69.85% CO2. Increasing the concentration of some ions such as Na+, K+ and Cl– keeping the allowable limit gave good results for scale mitigation.

Opis:
Scaling and corrosion associated with the use of natural hard water in cooling towers during recirculation pose great problems from both economical and technical points of view, such as decreased system efficiency and increased frequency of chemical cleaning. Treated municipal wastewater (MWW) is a promising alternative to freshwater as power plant cooling system makeup water, especially in arid regions. In this work, hybrid systems of salt precipitation (SP), nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO) were investigated, as potential pretreatment processes for wastewater reuse as cooling water in the planned Jordan nuclear power plants. The As-Samra wastewater was used to calculate the potential of carbonate and sulfate scale formation. The results were compared to scale potentials from Palo Verde wastewater. Four cases were investigated; SP, NF, SP-RO and NF-RO. The SP pretreatment cases showed the highest monovalent to divalent ratio because of a high removal of Ca and Mg and addition of Na from the chemicals of the SP step. The NF pretreatment cases, showed the lowest calcium sulfate scale potential and this potential decreases with the % pretreatment. The scale amount increases very slightly with concentration times when the SP and NF product is desalinated by RO step.

Opis:
A player’s subjective interaction with a digital game is referred to as player experience. The consequence of playing a game affects a player’s thoughts, feelings, attitudes, and behaviours. To measure player experience there are various qualitative and quantitative methods. Iterative game development and play testing sessions enhance and optimize game designs, to determine the impact of functional and psychosocial consequences of gaming in various cultures, a credible scale is required. To be able to measure and analyse player experience, this study aimed at adapting the ‘Player Experience Inventory’ (PXI) scale developed by V. V. Abeele1 to Turkish. The results of test-retest analysis and backand-forth translation demonstrate that linguistic equivalence is not applicable for the Turkish variant. Only one item for functional – audio-visual appeal – and two items from psychosocial – immersion and autonomy – consequence of gaming have a proper factor structure. In this way an adaption study was carried out by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and explanatory factor analysis (EFA) with three items from the scale. The validity and reliability of the scale and relationship of audio-visual appeal of gaming on game enjoyment were tested and this article proposes a model for the functional and psychosocial consequences of gaming.
