Depression is defined as a condition when people has a prolonged feeling of uselessness and a thought of suicide, and hard to expressed their feelings. Based on pre-research data, it was found that the age of 12 – 24 is an age where symptoms of depression appear, and potentially lead to suicide. This is due to the lack of literacy and public awareness of depression, which has eventually led to various stigma in public, thus cause the community's function as a support system was not going well. Communities in this case are people who are close to people with depression has strong influence to help them through the healing process. One important role of the community is providing accompaniment and mental support for people with depression, so they do not feel alone. Therefore, a good understanding and awareness is needed for the community to become a good support system for people with depression. In order to increase the public awareness and convey messages related to depression, the creator of the work did a campaign "Kenali Aku" that used The Nine Steps for Strategic Planning of Public Relations concept by Ronald D. Smith. This campaign has several activities such as education through social media, social experiment, and seminars (education that conducted in three regions in DKI Jakarta).

Published: August 2020

La mayoría de los casos de TDAH suceden en niños menores de cinco años, y esta situación requiere de herramientas de cribado con elevada sensibilidad y especificidad para edades tempranas. Se presenta la ADHD-3P, una nueva herramienta de cribado desarrollada con población española para niños de preescolar. A partir de 151 ítems, se realizaron análisis de la validez aparente, análisis de los ítems y de la escala. Estos resultaron en una escala de 27 ítems (α = .95) compuesta por tres factores: hiperactividad(α = .92), inatención (α = .92) y otros síntomas (α = .81). El poder discriminativo de la escala fue elevado (89.7% para niños con TDAH y 88.3% para niños sin TDAH). La capacidad diagnóstica fue evaluada mediante curvas ROC y mostró una excelente sensibilidad (92.86%) y especificidad (89.86%). En suma, la ADHD-3P es una herramienta prometedora para ser utilizada por padres, profesores y pediatras.

Authors: González-Rivera Juan Aníbal , Hernández-Gato Idania
Published: August 2020

The objective of this study was to develop a short version of the Subjective Sexual Satisfaction Scale. Two in-dependent studies were carried out with this purpose. The first study, of 200 participants, analyzed the reliability and factorial structure of the scale with strict criteria of item se-lection. In the second study, of 275 participants, a confirma-tory factorial analysis was carried out and the convergent and concurrent validity of the short version of the instru-ment (ESSS-B) was calculated. The results of the studies showed adequate psychometric properties in the scale. The reliability index of the scale was of .91 (Cronbach’s alpha). The seven items of the ESSS-B complied with the discrimi-nation criteria. Convergent and concurrent validity analyses were performed, obtaining statistically significant values. These results suggest that the ESSS-B has the potential to adequately measure sexual satisfaction in a global and sub-jective way among Puerto Rican adults.

Authors: Rivera-Flores Natalia Belén , Furlan Luis Alberto , Gnavi Gerardo Aníbal
Published: August 2020

The Children’s Test Anxiety Scale (CTAS; Wren & Benson, 2004) was adapted to Spanish for its use in adolescents (12 - 17 years old) from Argentina. CTAS is a self report with 30 items grouped in 3 factors named: task off be-haviours, thoughts and autonomic reactions. The items were directly translated into Spanish, and an equivalence analysis in bilingual sample was done. Two alternative solutions to internal structure of the CTAS were obtained through ex-ploratory factor analysis (N = 360 students, of both sexes, public and private schools, aged 11 to 13 years, M =12.77, SD = .72), one with three original dimensions and another with four factors, distinguishing worry and self - criticism thoughts. Both models fit was assessed through confirmato-ry factor analysis (N = 501 students, of both sexes, public and private schools, aged 12 to 17 years, M =13.98 SD = .87), having the four dimension model the most acceptable index (χ2/df = 1.92, CFI = .90, TLI = .09, RMSEA = 0.043, AIC = 410, BIC = 414), although two items were eliminated as they were considered problematic. Internal consistency of the scales was adequate (α= .68 - .79). Gender differences and correlations with academic performance were corroborated in line with other test anxiety measures. It is recom-mended to use the adapted version with some precaution.

The purpose of this study was to assess the socio cultural factors that prevent females from accessing Technical and Vocational Education Training (TVET) in Rwanda. Females have been sensitized on the availability and benefits of TVET, to meet the required qualifications in order to be enrolled and yet the uptake of females to TVET remains low. The specific objectives of the study were to determine the socio-cultural factors that prevent girls from enrolling in TVET and establish the level of awareness of girls and parents about TVET and its benefits. The study answered why females are not embracing TVET as a promising avenue of education. The study used a case study strategy and applied both qualitative and quantitative approach (triangulation) at levels of data collection and analysis. The study used questionnaires, Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), Interviews and secondary data as data sources. The respondents included 400 females, parents and local leaders, TVET and integrated Polytechnic Regional Centers (IPRCs) staff for the Key Informant Interviews (KIIs). The research performed a simple linear regression analysis to find out predictor factors to enroll in TVET hence access to TVET that supplemented the correlation analysis. The findings of the study revealed social and cultural factors that prevent girls from enrolling in TVET include the belief that males have greater innate technical capacity than females and are thus predisposed to excel at programs with sciences and Mathematics backgrounds. Male Inheritance defined as investing in male for the continuity of the family, parent’s belief of females’ ineptitude at TVET labeled as male reserved areas, physical infrastructure variables such as distance from home to Training centers and female boarding facilities are additional factors which indicated a statistical significance with p <0.001. The study results indicated that the higher level of education of parents, the lower the enrolment of females in TVET Education. Many educated parents believe that TVET was for the failures and poor families. The study indicated that there was a discrepancy between the high expectations of enrolling in TVET prior to enrolling rated at 90%, 91.5%, 61.5 %, 84.5 %, 79 % compared to the actual benefits after enrolling rated at 32%, 37%, 50.5%, 62.0%, 54.5%. The study showed the lack of information and underestimation of the value of TVET however increased access to information among females and parents led to increased enrolment of females in TVET schools.

Published: August 2020

Emerging technologies like internet of things (IoT), block chain, cloud computing, machine learning, big data analytics etc., are creating a wave of excitement and anxiety in the business community. An independent research in 2016 projected that companies world-wide will spend $3.5 Trillion on IT over the next two years (Gartner, 2016). It also predicted that companies would tend to increase their expenditure on software and services over hardware. Software spending was projected to be up 6 percent in 2016 and to grow another 7.2 percent in 2017 to a total of $357 billion. A proper investigation and analysis is needed to understand the key factors impacting adoption if such technologies in large corporations for extracting maximum benefits out of such initiatives .However, this buzz has not only created the art of the possibility of incorporating emerging technologies but also a bigger problem of enterprise wide relevant adoption. One of the much sought out after techniques in fueling the adoption of emerging technologies in large private enterprises is design thinking. Design Thinking is essentially a problem-solving approach, crystalized in the field of design, which combines a holistic user-centered perspective with rational and analytical research with the goal of creating innovative solutions (Tim Brown, 2009).There are several factors that are crucial to be addressed during the design thinking phase that will significantly impact the successful adoption rate of emerging technologies in companies. This demands that we take a closer look at not only the factors impacting adoption but also the actual design thinking exercise itself that will have a say in the adoption of such technologies. Our exercise aimed at gauging and analyzing the key factors for improved adoption while utilizing the design thinking approach leads us to define our problem statement as follows: What are the key factors for improved adoption of emerging technologies in business functions while incorporating design thinking techniques as a catalyst in large private enterprises?

Females have been sensitized on the availability, benefits of TVET, and that most of them meet the required qualifications to be enrolled and yet the uptake of females to TVET remains low. Rwandans are classified in community socio economic categories known as Ubudehe. The latter refers to the long-standing Rwandan practice and culture of collective action and mutual support to solve problems within a community. It allocates each household to one of four income and poverty-related categories as basis to access mainly public services including not limited to TVET. The study analyzed the relationship of the Household socio economic status and enrolment of females in TVET in Rwanda to attempt to answer why females are not embracing TVET as a promising avenue of acquisition of professional skills. The study used both qualitative and quantitative-triangulation methodology. The study used questionnaires, FGDs, Interviews and secondary data as data sources. The respondents included 400 females, female’s parents, local leaders, TVET and IPRCS staff for the KIIs. The research performed a simple linear regression analysis to find out predictor factors to enroll in TVET hence access to TVET that supplemented the correlation analysis.The study found that the household socio economic status showed very strong correlation to the enrolment of females with a p <.001 with a negative Pearson’s coefficient of r, -.628 **. The study showed that household socio economic status was statistically significant predictor of the enrolment of female in Technical Vocational Education Training, β. -.415, t (-16.090), p<.001, R² = .394. The results revealed that the higher the level of the household socio economic status, the less the enrolment of females in the TVET Education. The results indicated that the more a household increased income and became wealthier the more negative perception “labelling TVET as Second best option therefore the less their kids joined TVET. The study indicated that TVET scholarship loan plays an important role in the enrolment of Females in TVET. However, it recommends the Government to adjust or remove the wealth classification (Ubudehe category) from the list of criteria considered for a student to acquire a TVET scholarship loan.
Sikh Community as an Ethnic Minority in Patna, Bihar
Authors:   Department of Sociology, Lady Shri Ram College for Women, India., Mehra Mahima
Published: August 2020

The capital of Bihar - Patna, is one of the holiest cities in Sikh history. Despite rich historical and religious significance, the population of Sikhs in Patna is merely 0.09% of the total population. The Sikh minority in the Bihar capital is one of the handful minorities of India who have never "claimed" a minority status or any compensation for their community from the government. However, the community continues to preserve its ethnic behavior and social symbols to date. This paper aims to analyze the existence of social institutions that support the formation of the Sikh community as ethnicity in Patna, Bihar. It also touches briefly on the reasons behind the lack of agency and demand for greater minority representation. Interviews were taken from 100 respondents in January 2019 in the capital city of Patna, Bihar in India. Age was taken as a criterion for inclusion. The findings of the study show that minority behavior is not the same everywhere. The ethnicity of the community is maintained by the continuity of symbols of lifestyle such as dietary habits, attire, the teaching of Gurumukhi in school and colleges, and trade activities. A reasonable explanation can allude to the very foundations of the Sikh community which upholds ideals of bravery and resilience. Begging or lobbying is a mandate prohibited by the very religion which protects them. However, the younger population shows a shift towards the general trend and is moving away from the economic set up of establishing business and of looking at the Gurudwara as an intersection of political and social rights. A change in the coming decade is inexorable. This research can be used as a model to understand the behavior of other minorities in India or elsewhere. It provides a better-looking glass to understand subaltern behavior. Additionally, it also shows variations in the status of communities. The Sikh community, a majority religion in most of Northern India, is a minuscule minority in Patna’s Capital city with rich Sikh history.

Published: August 2020

he present work was designed to investigate the reproductive toxicity induced by oral administration of chlorpyrifos (CPF), cypermethrin (CYP) and their combination in adult male albino rats. Forty mature male albino rats were separated into four groups (10 each), the first group was used as control, while second, third and fourth groups received orally 1/20 LD50 of CPF (10 mg/kg b.wt), 1/20 LD50 of CYP (17.22 mg/kg b.wt) and 1/40 LD50 of CPF plus 1/40 LD50 of CYP (5 mg/kg b.wt CPF plus 8.61 mg/kg b.wt CYP) respectively for 26 days. The results revealed that exposure to CPF and/or CYP induced a significant decrease in the reproductive organs weight. Moreover, a significant decrease in spermatic picture (sperm cell concentration and viability) was observed with high percent of sperm abnormalities. Serum levels of testosterone and pituitary gonadotropins (FSH and LH) have been declined significantly in all treated groups. Significant elevations were observed in malondialdehyde and nitric oxide concentrations, while antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase and glutathione-S-transferase activities were decreased significantly as a result of induced oxidative stress. A significant drop in prostatic acid phosphatase activity was observed. Additionally, the results showed some histopathological alterations in the reproductive organs as well as neurological lesions in brain and pituitary glands. In conclusion, CPF and CYP induce deleterious effects on reproductive efficiency of male rats which reflect more obvious impacts when both combined

Abstract- Research primarily focusses on pursuing in-depth knowledge for the progress of the science and society. Publishing the work is crucial for its communication among the scientific community and to the public. Conducting the research demands extensive time and effort but the entire struggle goes futile unless the work got published in a reputed journal. A researcher confronts many such dilemma as the appraisal of his effort depends upon the quality of conducting and publishing the work. Current setting demands increasing publication for professional accreditation and upgradation of research profile pressurizing authors which results in many ethical lapses in their works. This paper intends to highlight such lapses commonly seen in current research practices. The match between the study design and the research objectives, various components like sample size, methods of recruiting participants against inclusion and exclusion criteria and allocating the subjects to different groups, time period for collecting data or conducting the study, enlisting the confounding variables influencing the results, maintenance of data transparency and arriving at conclusions without considering the alternatives have considerable impact over its credibility. Improper execution of the work could affect its replicability and such negligence in research influences its quality making the entire work insignificant.

Summary - The current academic and research settings have forced the scholars and researchers to conduct extensive research for increasing their publications and upgrading their research profile. This led to many works with uncertain credibility, reflected in the execution of the study as well as with its publication. This article points out a few among such works from different aspects which could influence the result of the study. Such trends in research is making the whole resource and time futile and the entire work insignificant.

Published: August 2020

Introduction
The number of abortions when classified into facility based , medical abortions outside facilities and other type of abortions constituted a medium of 3375252, 14837497 and 807251 cases respectively, when adjusted for various parameters for India. The present study was conducted to include abortions outside medical facilities including methods of abortion, clinical complaints, complications and their management.
Material and methods
The hospital records for patients who underwent abortions were accessed for a four year period from 2016-2020. The number of patients undergoing supervised abortions and patients presenting with incomplete abortions or related complications were recorded. The presenting complaints for spontaneous abortions and abortions done outside medical health facility along with the therapeutic interventions for such unsafe abortions including complications were assessed.
Results
The total numbers of abortions were 4316, out of which hospital supervised termination of pregnancies constituted 59.8% where as abortions or related complications outside a medical facility were 40.2 %.
The modes of abortion, presenting features and complications of abortions performed outside medical facilities (total number=1824) and the treatment were recorded. Out of these patients with spontaneous abortions were 36.8% whereas those presenting with complications constituted 63.2%. The commonest method for such abortions was use of abortions pills but other abortifacients and crude instrumentation were also recorded. The commonest clinical feature was discharge per vagina, with retained products of conception causing most complications. The main therapeutic procedure done was dilatation and curettage.
Conclusion
The rural population needs a robust health facility for abortion related care. The sale of abortion pills needs to be tightly regulated . Similarly, crude instrumentation which is a significant cause of morbidity, in unsupervised abortions can be eliminated by awareness and strengthening the health care system making it more approachable for women in rural population.
TOTAL SITUS INVERSUS WITH COR TRIATRIATUM SINISTER WITH SUPRAMITRAL RING IN AN ADOLESCENT
Authors: D.M Ashish Kumar
Published: August 2020

Cor triatriatum sinister is a rare congenital anomaly in which a membrane divides LA into two distinct chambers, supramitral ring is another membrane dividing LA. Combination of both these defects is very rare and these occurring in tandem with complete situs inversus with associated VSD are rarer still. 12 year old female with h/o dyspnea and a systolic murmur presented with complete situs inversus with cor triatriatum sinister with supramitral ring with VSD.
Cor triatriatum sinister and supramitral ring and complete situs inversus is a very rare congenial disorder that can be confused clinically with congenital mitral stenosis but can be adequately diagnosed with transthoracic echocardiography and surgical correction is the definitive cure for these anomalies although percutaneous approach can also be tried.
Case Study of College Veng Road Section Landslide, Aizawl, Mizoram, India
Authors: Verma Rahul
Published: August 2020

Landslide is a very common feature along highways, roads and inhabited areas, in and around Mizoram. It is one of the most problematic hazards in the region. The present case of landslide, is in the ‘College Veng’ road section. It lies in the south eastern parts of the Aizawl town. This section is situated along the Sikulpuikawn-Bethlehem Veng road. The Coordinates of the “College Veng” slide are between 23°43՛28.56՛՛/92°43՛28.28՛՛ to 23°43՛28.56՛՛/92°43՛28.34՛՛.
The slide took place on 17th September, 2017, at mid night. The section had a relatively high amount of dip (48°-50°), and has a lithology comprising of Shale and Sandstone intercalation. The total length of the slide section along the road was 75 feet, with a height of 25 feet.
After the critical observation of the incidence, the major aggravating factors were found to be that the heavy rainfall induced the top most shale bed to move down the dip slope. Improper sewage and subsequent mud erosion at the bottom of the shale layer, further accelerated the down slope movement of the slided block.

Due to unfavourable topographical features roads in hilly areas are usually small as compared to plain areas, therefore several problems may arise whenever rockfall occurs. One of the busiest domestic road in Aizawl i.e. Ngaizel road often encountered rockfall along its cutting slope. This road act as an important gateway which connects the southern parts of Mizoram. This road is packed with human activities which adds on the hazard level to rise high. The main factors that contribute to rockfalls include slope degree, geomechanical properties of rock mass and anthropogenic activities. Taking into consideration of all the adverse effect of rockfalls, RMR (Rock Mass Rating) become indispensable to identify the actual condition of rock mass on the slope of the study area. RMR classification is carried out to determine the geomechanical condition of slope rock mass and Rockfall Hazard Rating System (RHRS) is applied for identifying the hazard-prone area of rockfall along the cut slope of Ngaizel road. RHRS depends on various parameter which include slope height, annual precipitation, block size, block volume, decision sight distance, average vehicle risk, road width and rockfall history which mainly concern about the safety of pedestrians along the road. The RMR and RHRS study along Ngaizel cut slope provides a detailed and useful information about the geological condition and delineating the hazard level. The study also gave awareness and alertness about the actual condition of the area.

Published: August 2020

Pleurotus ostreatus (Oyster mushroom), a saprophytic macroscopic fungus, can grow on several lignocellulosic substances by degradation activity supported by several enzymes secreted by them. The mushroom is widely consumed for its delicious flavour in cuisines and medicinal purposes. The present study was focused on its cultivation on three different residues viz. paddy straw (Oryza sativa), wheat straw (Triticum aestivum) and garden grass (Cynodon dactylon). The research further focused on evaluating the biochemical composition including moisture, lipids, proteins and phenolic contents. All three substrates were compared based on total yield, cropping days and biological efficiencies. Maximum yield (458.97g/5kg substrate) and biological efficiency (91.79%) were observed in paddy straw, whereas the early growth was observed on garden grass. This study concludes the presence of high proteins and low lipids content in mushrooms, which is ideal for human consumption.
