The Effect of Training Based on James Brown Model on Self-efficacy in Adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

Introduction: Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) is one of the most frequent chronic diseases among children and adolescents. Educational strategies underscore patient’s roles in the management of diseases and enhance self-efficacy behaviors. Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of an educational intervention based on James Brown’s model on self-efficacy in adolescents with T1DM. Materials and Methods: In this randomized clinical trial, 70 participants were selected and assigned to the control and intervention groups by random block. The two groups received routine care for T1DM. The intervention group was also provided with educational sessions, 60 minutes twice a week for 4 weeks, based on the educational model. The participants completed the diabetes management self-efficacy instrument at the beginning, at the end, and a month after the end of the study. Data analysis was performed using the Chi-square, Independent samples t-test, Covariance (ANCOVA), and repeated measures ANOVA. Results: The mean±SD age of the intervention and control groups was 14.81±2.05 and 15.18±2.11 years, respectively. Before the intervention, the two groups were not different statistically in terms of demographic variables (age, sex, duration of diabetes, insulin intake, etc.) and self-efficacy. The results showed that immediately after the intervention and also in the follow-up stage, the mean scores of self-efficacies and its subscales (nutrition, blood glucose monitoring, physical activity, and medical treatment) in the intervention group were significantly higher than the control group (P<0.05). The mean scores of self-efficacies at the beginning, at the end, and a month after the end of the study were 27.97±5.08, 41.46±4.41, and 44.55±4.38, respectively. In the control group, however, these differences were not significant. Conclusion: The education based on James Brown’s model can improve self-efficacy among adolescents with T1DM. It is recommended that nurses use this method to increase self-efficacy in adolescents with T1DM.
Impact of earnings per share and dividend per share on firm value

The purpose of this study is to explore the impact of earnings per share (EPS) and dividends per share (DPS) on the value of the company on the Indonesian stock exchange for the period 2014-2017. This study uses data from 6 food industry companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange to examine the impact of these variables. Multiple regression models are used to determine the effect of earning per share and dividend per share. The results of the research show that earnings per share separately have a significant and positive impact on company value. However, the dividend per share does not substantially affect the value of the company. The findings of this research also found that firm value is affected simultaneously by EPS and DPS. The study concludes that investors can use Earnings per Share as the basis for making investment decisions, particularly on the Indonesian Stock Exchange for companies in the food industry. In practical terms, the implications of this research indicate that the management of companies listed on the Stock Exchange must formulate a dividend policy and develop a company strategy aimed at internal and external factors in order to increase the value of the company.

TURKISH OLYMPIC SPORT BRANCH COACHES PERSONALITY TRAITS BASED ON THE FIVE- FACTOR MODEL

The purpose of the current research is to evaluate the personality profiles of Olympic sports coaches in Turkey within the framework of the Five-Factor Personality Model, and to investigate differences based on gender, national team coaching and coaching grade. A cross-sectional survey method is used as a research design. A stratified sampling procedure was applied, and coaches (nfemale=178; nmale=609) from 23 Olympic sports branches in 10 cities in Turkey voluntarily participated. The mean age of participants was 34.78+8.84. The data collection instruments were the PERI (Personality Inventory), which was used to assess the personality traits of participants; demographic variables were also gathered. The results of the research indicated that Olympic sports branch coaches have the emotional balance personality trait at not effective or low levels, the extraversion and openness to experience personality traits at partially effective or circumstantial levels and the compatibility and sense of responsibility personality traits at effective or high levels. There was no significant difference found between coaching grade and personality traits. Differences in personality traits in terms of coaching duties on the national team were found for compatibility and sense of responsibility, in favor of national team coaches.
Personal, Socio-Cultural and Environmental Factors Associated with Smoking Among Female Students at University of Lusaka, Zambia

Tobacco use is one of the most preventable causes of premature death globally, yet statistics show that there has been an increase of female smokers. Hence a need to understand why smoking prevalence continues despite the overwhelming data on adverse health effects. The aim of this study was to explore personal, socio-cultural, and environmental factors that are associated with smoking among female university students of University of Lusaka. A qualitative case study design was conducted with a sample 12 female students from the University of Lusaka. Snowball sampling was utilized. Female students smoking tobacco were predominantly associated with the desire for personal gratification, to feel accepted by their peers who smoke, to express female independence and freedom and exposure to a male family member who smokes at younger age. Socio- cultural factors such as such as peer influence, family influence and female modernity in society were the major influencers of smoking in the female students, and environmental factors such as the lack of responsiveness to Zambia’s anti-smoking campaigns and a gap in the enforcement of anti-smoking legislation in Zambia also played an indirect role in facilitating smoking among female student. Anti-smoking campaigns could try and consider evaluating interventions from a male and female perspective respectively.
IMPACT OF AGRICULTURAL CREDIT ACCESS ON AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTIVITY AMONG MAIZE AND RICE SMALLHOLDER FARMERS IN RWANDA

This paper assesses the impact of access to agricultural credit on the agricultural productivity of 422 smallholder farmers that cultivate maize or rice in the Western and Eastern province of Rwanda. Stratified, simple random and convenience sampling techniques were used to sample districts, sectors, cells and households. Data were collected using structured interviews and analyzed using propensity score matching techniques. Results indicated that productivity was higher by 44% among the farmers who accessed credit implying that they harvested on average an extra 440 kilograms of maize or rice. According to a crop-specific analysis, agricultural credit access had a more significant impact on maize productivity, with a difference in proportion of 68% (p = 0.000) but had no impact on rice productivity (p = 0.149). The study concludes that agricultural credit was important for Rwanda’s agricultural productivity. Thus policy measures should aim at improving smallholder farmers’ access to agricultural credit and promoting the use of modern agricultural inputs, particularly among rice farmers in Rwanda.
IMPACT OF BREED AND FEED RESTRICTION ON CARCASS TRAITS IN THE GROWING RABBITS

The aim of current study was to evaluate the effect of rabbit’ breeds (Red Baladi (RB), and New Zealand White (NZW) breeds), and feed restriction for two weeks (started at 11 and 12 weeks age till they reached 15 weeks of age) on growth performance traits (live body weight and carcass characteristics of growing rabbits). Rabbits were fed ad libitum till they reached 11 weeks of age. Three experimental groups were performed; 1 group was the control 0%, 2 and 3 groups were fed 60% and 80% from ad libitum feeding, respectively. This study resulted in, not only the body weight was affected either by breeds or feed-restriction, but also the feed intake and feed conversion ratio (FCR) were significantly affected. In addition, viability rate (%) during feed restriction to slaughter was similar in all studied groups. Interestingly, although, feed restriction hadn’t effect on scaling a percentage or total edible parts at slaughter, the breeds showed the significant effect on these traits. Furthermore, there were significant effects of breed, feed restriction, and their interactions on both abdominal fat and viscera. Additionally, there were no significant effects of either breeds or feed restriction on kidney weight, but the liver weight affected significantly by interactions between breed and feed restricted. In conclusion, the feed restriction was recommended for two weeks period starting from 11 week of rabbit's age to enhance the growth performance and the carcass characteristics of rabbits.
Nanomechanics serving polymer-based composite research

Tremendous progress in nanomechanical testing and modelling has been made during the last two decades. This progress emerged from different areas of materials science dealing with the mechanical behaviour of thin films and coatings, polymer blends, nanomaterials or microstructure constituents as well as from the rapidly growing field of MEMS. Nanomechanical test methods include, among others, nanoindentation, in-situ testing in a scanning or transmission electron microscope coupled with digital image correlation, atomic force microscopy with new advanced dynamic modes, micropillar compression or splitting, on-chip testing, or notched microbeam bending. These methods, when combined, reveal the elastic, plastic, creep, and fracture properties at the microand even the nanoscale. Modelling techniques including atomistic simulations and several coarse graining methods have been enriched to a level that allows treating complex size, interface or surface effects in a realistic way. Interestingly, the transfer of this paradigm to advanced long fibre-reinforced polymer composites has not been as intense compared to other fields. Here, we show that these methods put together can offer new perspectives for an improved characterisation of the response at the elementary fibre-matrix level, involving the interfaces and interphases. Yet, there are still many open issues left to resolve. In addition, this is the length scale, typically below 10 micrometres, ∗Corresponding author.

Assessment of CoMiSS among Children with Cow's Milk Allergy at Zagazig University Hospital

Background: Cow’s milk protein allergy (CMPA): The topic of definition still causes confusion among physicians. Words such as “allergy,” “intolerance,” and “hypersensitivity” are used interchangeably. The accepted definition of allergy is “a hypersensitivity reaction triggered by specific immunologic mechanisms”. There is no such thing as “allergy to lactose” but rather lactose intolerance. The authors introduced the acronym “CoMiSS” (cow’s milk-related symptom score). Objective: To evaluate CoMiSS in children with cow's milk allergy at Pediatric Department, Faculty of Medicine, Zagazig University. Patients and Methods: This study was conducted during the period from December 2018 to May 2020. Cow’s milk-related symptom score was assessed. Results: There was statistically significant increase in eosinophilic count among confirmed CMA than no CMA. There was statistically significant higher total score of CoMiSS among confirmed CMA than no CMA, and another one regarding each symptom of CoMiSS score. Accuracy of CoMiSS in diagnosis of CMA was 90.8%. The percentage was for sensitivity (86.4%), specificity (93.4%), positive predictive value (88.3%) when the score is >12 and negative predictive value (92.2%). Conclusion: CoMiSS is a simple, fast, and easy-to-use tool to raise awareness and help in early diagnosis of CMPA, but hard to handle with many of illiterate mothers. CoMiSS is a helpful tool and applicable method to screen for CMPA, though there may be risk of under-diagnosis when CoMiSS≥12 is used as the criterion for early pick-up of CMPA in Egyptian infants.
Identity Statuses among Kuwaitis

The present study investigated the identity statuses: Achievement, moratorium, foreclosure, and diffusion, and their ideological and relational aspects in samples of Kuwaiti adolescents, youth, and adults (N=3621 aged between 12 and 64 years; 1159 (or 32%) males, and 2462 (or 68%) females; and 2945 (or 81.3%) aged 24 years and younger, and 676 (or 18.7%) aged 25 years and older. By using an Arabic version of Bennion’s and Adams’ Extended Objective Measure of Ego Statuses – 2 (EOMES – 2). Results showed that a) 18.8%, 16.0%, 20.5%, and 17.3% of Kuwaiti participants were classified as identity achieved, moratorium, foreclosed or diffused, respectively. B) Males, compared with their female counterparts, scored significantly higher on Achievement and Foreclosure, and their ideological and relational aspects. No significant differences have been found between the two sexes on Moratorium and Diffusion and their ideological and relational components. c) Younger subjects, compared with older ones, scored significantly higher on Moratorium, Foreclosure and Diffusion, and lower on Achievement. d) Higher educated participants, compared with lower educated ones- scored higher on Achievement and Moratorium and lower on Foreclosure and Diffusion. e) Participants with literature, social and humanitarian backgrounds were significantly higher on Moratorium and Foreclosure identity statuses, compared with participants with sciences and technology backgrounds. No significant differences have been found between the two groups concerning their performance on Achievement and Diffusion. Results of the present study came in line with results of Arab and non -Arab previous studies. The possibility of application of the results in practical fields were discussed and suggestions for further research were provided.

Background: Population ageing in recent years has led to a significant rise in the number of chronic diseases. This issue has highlighted the need for protection and management through self-care behaviors. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of health belief model-based training on self-care behavior among elderly patients with hypertension referring to the comprehensive health centers of Daran city, Iran. Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted on 100 elderly patients with hypertension covered by the comprehensive health centers of Daran city using a pretest-posttest design and intervention group. The study population was randomly divided into intervention and control groups. Both groups completed a researcher-made questionnaire, including demographic data, knowledge, constructs of health belief model, and self-care behaviors, the validity and reliability of which were confirmed. Data collection was accomplished using interviewers. The data were analyzed in SPSS software (version 18) using independent t-test, paired sample t-test, Chi-square test, and Fisher’s exact test. Findings: The mean age of the patients in the intervention and control groups were 66.6±6.5 and 67.4±6.3, respectively. Before the intervention, there was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of the mean scores of sensitivity, severity, perceived benefits and barriers, guidance for action, self-efficacy, and self-care behaviors (P>0.05). However, after the intervention, the intervention group showed a significant increase in the mean scores of knowledge and model components (P<0.001). Conclusion: As the findings indicated, the application of the health belief model-based training improved the self-care behaviors and function of the elderly with hypertension. Therefore, it is recommended to use this model to enhance such behaviors in this population. Received: 23/08/2018 Accepted: 25/12/2018

Antecedents of the service quality for housing loan customers of Indian banks

The purpose of this paper is to explore the influence of the cost of borrowing, processing time and documentation on the service quality of banking institutions in India that sanction housing loans. A research framework was designed to consider the independent variables influencing service quality by unearthing research gaps in the extant literature on housing loans. All research gaps were transformed into a questionnaire, to which 535 useful responses were received. A five-point Likert scale was used, and a structural equation model was formulated using ADANCO 2.0. 1 – all hypotheses were tested with ADANCO. The findings clearly indicate the relevance of the service quality in banking sectors in India. There is a significant relationship between the three independent variables (cost of borrowing, processing time and documentation) and service quality. The outcome of banking service quality is measured through initial personal contact, online banking services, the humanitarian approach, provision of information for services, promise of service delivery and field verification, with all these measures having a very strong impact. This study is restricted to India only, but could be extended to other developing countries in South Asia in the future. This study could also be extended to cover other types of banking loans offered by banking institutions in India. The paper concludes that it is time for banking institutions to take action to sanction housing loans with a view to introducing the instant sanctioning of bank loans that come with real-time access, without resorting to bureaucratic policies and procedures for housing loan customers.
УДК 512.548 Fedir Sokhatsky Professor of the Department of Mathematical Analysis and Differential Equations, Vasyl’ Stus Donetsk National University FACTORIZATION OF OPERATIONS OF MEDIAL AND ABELIAN ALGEBRAS

Let A be an m× n matrix of variables. An n -ary operation f and m -ary operation g are said to satisfy the medial law if two results are the same: 1) an application of f to the rows of A then an application of g to the obtained column and 2) an application of g to the columns of A then an application of f to the obtained row. A universal algebra (A; Ω) is called: medial if every two operations from Ω satisfy the medial law; abelian if it is medial and has a oneelement subalgebra. Criteria for being medial and for being Abelian are found for universal algebras (A; Ω) which have 0 ∈ Q and f ∈ Ω such that the term f(x0, . . . , xn) defines a quasigroup operation if all variables are 0 except xi and xp and it defines a permutation of Q if all variables are f(0, . . . , 0) except xi or except xp for some different i , p .
