No Benefits for Paradox Personalities? Narcissism and Humility in New Work Careers
Authors: Höflinger Vivien , Büttgen Marion
Published: December 2022

Remarkable contributions have already been made to narcissism and its particular influence on career success, yet the literature to date does not capture the potential impact of paradoxical personalities, especially when considering the role of humility as a complement to a multifaceted constellation of characters. This gap finds additional relevance in light of recent changes in today’s world of work in terms of flexibility and complexity. Therefore, our study examines the relationship between narcissism and humility with objective and subjective career success in new work settings. The research is based on dyadic data from 398 cross-industry U.S. professionals in 199 pairs. Hypotheses are tested using hierarchical moderated multiple and logistic regression analyses. As expected, the interaction between narcissism and humility showed negative effects on a leadership position, project responsibility, and salary. Considering new ways of working in a three-way interaction with narcissism and humility, the effect turned positive for salary. Thus, in the new world of work, the humble narcissist is successful in material terms. Surprisingly, no relations to subjective career success were evident. Our findings contribute to the literature on new ways of working, career success, and paradox personalities by showing that although humble narcissists may generally experience lower levels of career success, they rather succeed in new working environments.
Peer Review in der kommunalen Rechnungsprüfung – Ein Praxisbeispiel
Authors: Richter Martin , Steinmetzer Wolfgang
Published: December 2022

Prüfungen sind Vertrauensgüter, d.h. Prüfer müssen - aktiv und systematisch - alle Maßnahmen ergreifen, die faktisch und in der Wahrnehmung der Prüfungsadressaten eine möglichst hohe Qualität der Prüfung gewährleisten. Nur dann wird auch die - allgemein anerkannte - Funktion der kommunalen Rechnungsprüfung als Führungsunterstützung erfüllt. Peer Reviews sind ein bewährtes Instrument des Qualitätsmanagements. Sie werden von der KGSt nachdrücklich empfohlen und zwar in der Ausprägung als Lernprozess. Im Gegensatz zum Signalling setzt dieser Typus vorrangig beim Prüferverhalten und den Wirkungen von Prüfungen an; er ist in der kommunalen Rechnungsprüfung allerdings noch nicht angewendet worden. Das Peer Review des Rechnungsprüfungsamtes der Stadt Göttingen diente der Erprobung dieses Instrumentes. Insgesamt kann das Peer Review in der Ausprägung als Lernprozess als sehr erfolgreich angesehen werden. Die Professionalisierung der Rechnungsprüfung und ihre Wahrnehmung durch die Verwaltungsführung/Politik haben sich bereits während des Peer Reviews deutlich verbessert. Bemerkenswert ist auch, dass der Prüfungsbericht über dieses Peer Review allgemein zugänglich ist, was als Ausdruck einer nachahmenswerten offenen Fehlerkultur in der öffentlichen Verwaltung gewertet werden kann.
Kommunales Carbon Accounting in Zeiten des Klimawandels
Authors: Blab Daniel , Lutter Milena , Stojanovic-Blab Maja
Published: December 2022

Heutzutage gehört die Bekämpfung des Klimawandels und seiner Auswirkungen aufgrund des anthropogenen Treibhauseffektes zu den zentralen Herausforderungen für Gesellschaft und Politik, um einen weiteren Anstieg der Treibhausgase in der Atmosphäre zu verhindern und dadurch klimaneutral zu werden. Eine unerlässliche Voraussetzung für die Auswahl, die Umsetzung und die Überwachung der Wirksamkeit von Maßnahmen zur Minderung der Treibhausgasemissionen ist die Messung und Bilanzierung der Emissionen durch die Implementierung eines Carbon Accounting Systems. Im Vergleich zu Unternehmen wird das Thema Carbon Accounting auf kommunaler Ebene in der Öffentlichkeit bisher weniger stark wahrgenommen. Gegenstand dieses Aufsatzes sind deshalb die Fragen nach den speziellen Herausforderungen, den Lösungsansätzen und Perspektiven des kommunalen Carbon Accounting.
Factors of Athletes’ Work Engagement in South-East European Basketball Teams
Authors: Ivašković Igor , Čater Tomaž
Published: December 2022

The purpose of this paper is to examine how human resource management (HRM) quality and cohesion in post-transitional South-East European basketball teams influence athletes’ work engagement and their contribution to their team’s performance. The model was tested with structural equation modelling on a sample of 559 basketball athletes from four South-East European countries. The results show that the perceived quality of HRM directly affects the level of athletes’ work engagement, but does not directly affect the perception of cohesion or the self-reported contribution to the team’s performance. However, athletes’ work engagement mediates the effects of the HRM and cohesion on their contribution to their team’s performance. The study’s main contribution is the finding that work engagement in the context of basketball teams from post-transitional South-East European countries represents a mediator through which HRM can affect an individual athlete’s performance.
Implementing Distributed Leadership in Pre-school Education Institutions
Authors: Dambrauskienė Dalia , Liukinevičienė Laima , Balčiūnas Sigitas
Published: December 2022

The article aims to reveal the implementation of distributed leadership in Lithuanian pre-school education institutions from the perspective of a principal in the organization. The article presents the results of qualitative research (the interviews n=11) conducted in 2019 in Lithuania. The research is based on the concept of distributed leadership as a result of interaction between leaders and followers, as a forward-looking transformation, which is discussed in science. The position of a principal has been chosen: the perspective of the person elected as a pre-school principal for the first time, or an experienced pre-school principal who is assigned to manage two institutions at the same time. The research has revealed that the majority of principals seek to implement distributed leadership due to their moral values and from the pragmatic point of view. The factors that hinder principals’ desire to implement distributed leadership in pre-school education institutions have been revealed as well.
Comparing Polish and Iranian Women’s Silence in a University Setting
Authors: Dehkharghani Leila Lotfi , Maharati Yaghoob , Menzies Jane , Bridges Donna
Published: December 2022

The silencing of women in academia is associated with a range of employment inequities. In societies where gender inequality is high women are more likely to experience a range of gender issues at work. This research note provides insights on a comparative study investigating women’s silence in Poland and Iran. The study offers novel insight into the significance of the sociocultural and political context as a factor impacting the silence of academic women. By analysing two different countries in terms of politics, religion and culture we bring new insights into the implications of silence for women.
»Hilfe zur Selbsthilfe« – Globale Krisenbearbeitung durch regionale Intervention
Authors: Dendorfer-Ditges Renate , Sankaranarayan Prabha
Published: December 2022

Wir erleben gegenwärtig Krisen in vielen existentiellen Bereichen, bewaffnete Konflikte, Kriege, Klimakrise, Erschütterung bislang stabiler demokratischer Strukturen, Gefahren für das soziale Gleichgewicht und vieles mehr.1 Zur Bewältigung dieser Probleme bedarf es kooperativer und friedensbildender Maßnahmen. Dieser Bedarf geht über den bisherigen Einsatz alternativer Streitbeilegung weit hinaus. Gefordert sind Ideen für eine nachhaltige, sowohl regional als auch international wirkende Friedensarbeit, für einen kooperativen und gewaltfreien Dialog sowie für die Berücksichtigung der Interessen aller Beteiligten. Das »Positive Peace«-Konzept und die Friedensmediation als außenpolitische Initiativen bilden eine Basis für eine globale Krisenbewältigung. Der Fokus liegt dabei auf staatlichen, rechtlichen und gesellschaftlichen Aspekten der Mediation und anderen Methoden des gewaltfreien Dialogs. Die Non-Profit-Organisation »Mediators Beyond Borders International« (MBBI) verfolgt mit dem »People-Centered Model« einen davon abweichenden Ansatz, welcher die Akteure eines Konfliktes auf regionaler Ebene im Sinne von »Hilfe zur Selbsthilfe« in den Mittelpunkt stellt.
Mediation im M & A-Prozess bei Familienunternehmen
Authors: Neukirchner Tobias
Published: December 2022

Falsch verstandene oder fehlerhafte Kommunikation kann bei Unternehmenstransaktionen zu Konflikten führen - und besonders bei Transaktionen von Familienunternehmen kommt dies häufig vor. Diese Konflikte stellen ein erhebliches Risiko für den erfolgreichen Abschluss einer Transaktion dar und führen häufig zu hohen Opportunitäts- oder Gerichtskosten. Hier kann die Mediation einen entscheidenden Beitrag zur Klärung der Konflikte und somit zu nachhaltig erfolgreichen Transaktionen leisten. Dieser Artikel soll aufzeigen, in welchen Stufen einer Unternehmensfusion Konflikte auftreten können und welche Werkzeuge der (Wirtschafts-)Mediation bei der Klärung von Konflikten in Familienunternehmen eingesetzt werden können.
Človek a montánna krajina neskorého stredoveku a novoveku : príklad Banskej Štiavnice
Authors: Labuda Jozef
Published: December 2022

Aktuálnou témou ochrany životného prostredia sa zaoberajú viaceré vedné odbory, medzi nimi aj archeológia (environmental archeology). Banská a hutnícka činnosť človeka vždy negatívne vplývala na prírodu (haldy hlušiny a trosky, kontaminácia vodných tokov, plynové splodiny z hút...), avšak príroda sa s týmito zásahmi človeka vždy vedela vyrovnať. Dôkazom toho je aj širší región Banskej Štiavnice, turisticky atraktívny, zapísaný na listinu UNESCO. Táto oblasť bola atakovaná uvedenou činnosťou najmä v období v období 16.–18. storočia. Relikty možno vidieť dodnes v teréne, ale najmä na vyobrazeniach banských máp v archíve. Názorová dilema o vplyve baníctva a hutníctva na prírodu a človeka nie je známa len pre 20.–21. storočie, ale takou bola paradoxne už v 16. storočí. Veľmi výstižne ju spracoval známy autor o baníctve a hutníctve G. Agricola, ktorý na jednej strane poukázal na škodlivé vplyvy tejto činnosti, ale vedel zhodnotiť aj jej prínos.
Skromný dům nebo bohatě vybavená domácnost? : vývoj nemovitosti č. p. 39/I v Chrudimi – Filištínské ulici
Authors: Frolík Jan , Musil Jan , Sedláčková Michaela , Vepřeková Jana
Published: December 2022

Archeologický výzkum ve Filištínské ulici v Chrudimi zkoumal především dvorky za jednotlivými domy. Do plochy domů vstoupil pouze vpřípadě č. p. 39/Is gotickými počátky. Zástavba byla rekonstruována jako vývoj od dřevěné stavby s lochem, s kamennou výstavbou v pokročilém 14. století a s nejméně dvěma následnými mladšími úpravami. Obsah odpadních jímek ukazuje na bohatě vybavenou domácnost již během 14. století s vrcholem v první polovině 17. století. Podle nálezů můžeme určit, že ve 14. století nemovitost obýval švec.
Olomoucké středověké předměstí Bělidla z pohledu archeologie

Carnage, medicine and "The Woman Question" : representations of the Crimean war in neo-Victorian fiction
Authors: Kucała Bożena
Published: December 2022

The aim of this article is to analyse and compare representations of the Crimean war in three neo-Victorian novels, Beryl Bainbridge's Master Georgie (1998), Julia Gregson's The Water Horse (2004) and Katharine McMahon's The Rose of Sebastopol (2007), with reference to the commonly established view of this historical event. The novels foreground the experience of civilians who found themselves on the periphery of the battlefields, caring for the casualties of the war. As the course of history and private lives intersect, the main characters undergo a personal transformation; for the female protagonists, the experience leads to liberation from conventional gender roles. It is argued that by focusing on civilians rather than soldiers the novels offer a new perspective on the war; nonetheless, they uphold its overwhelmingly negative image in British collective memory.
The city on the Moldau as a liminal space : Prague in Anthony Trollope's Nina Balatka
Authors: Dobosiewicz Ilona
Published: December 2022

The article discusses Anthony Trollope's representation of the city of Prague in his 1867 novel Nina Balatka, which first appeared anonymously in the Blackwood's Magazine. The novel tells the story of the eponymous protagonist, a Christian woman, who falls in love with a Jewish man. Trollope's choice of Prague as the backdrop for the story of two lovers separated by the great gulf between Christians and Jews seems particularly fitting, because the spatial division of the city by the river Moldau which separates the Christian and the Jewish parts of town reinforces the sense that the two protagonists come from different worlds. Trollope's characters exist in the realistically represented city; yet, iconic Prague locations, described in picturesque detail, are imbued with symbolic significance which underscores the liminal position of the protagonist, who is torn between her Christian faith, and her love of a Jewish man.
František Matouš Klácel a zdroje jeho utopických vizí
Authors: Lee Lenka
Published: December 2022

Studie se zabývá utopickými úvahami brněnského augustiniána Františka Matouše Klácela (1808–1882), jejich zdroji a pokusy o uvedení do praxe a také možnými důvody, kvůli kterým své vize nedokázal realizovat tak, jak si předsevzal. Klácel v teoretických reflexích ideálního uspořádání lidské společnosti i při projektování návrhů utopických komunit (Svojanovů) čerpal jednak z prací svých předchůdců, jež se snažili formulovat či uvést do praxe myšlenky sociální utopie (Saint-Simon, Fourier, Jednota bratrská, Komenský), z hlediska ontologického se ovšem opíral o svůj koncept vesměrnosti, jemuž se věnoval od počátku čtyřicátých let až do konce života.
Funkce jako kritérium aktualizace Aristotelova konceptu morálního charakteru
Authors: Brázdil Jan
Published: December 2022

Článek spadá do tematické oblasti současných snah o oživení Aristotelovy etické teorie. V užším vymezení jde o téma aktualizace konceptu morálního charakteru (či mravní ctnosti), které je spojováno s využitím poznatků psychologických věd. Zde pak klíčovou pozornost věnuji problému kritérií, podle kterých můžeme posuzovat adekvátnost návrhů na takovou aktualizaci. Vedle běžně respektovaných kritérií interdisciplinarity a empirické a normativní adekvátnosti představuji kritérium funkce, které je ústředním pojmem článku. Cílem článku je formulovat toto kritérium a pro jeho vyjasnění co nejlépe vystihnout funkci (zjednodušeně řečeno užitečnost či přínos) Aristotelovy etické teorie. Dále je mým záměrem na příkladech představit, jaké důsledky by mělo přijetí tohoto kritéria (tedy zachování či zefektivnění funkce) pro posuzování adekvátnosti návrhů k aktualizaci Aristotelova konceptu morálního charakteru. Za funkci Aristotelovy etické teorie považuji zvyšování naší morální gramotnosti a tvrdím, že tato funkce vyplývá ze stěžejního rysu Aristotelovy práce, z důsledné analýzy a nalezení vzájemných vazeb mezi pojmy, které spojujeme s každodenní morálkou a s prožíváním dobrého a spokojeného života. Na konkrétních příkladech ukazuji, jak snahy naplnit jiná kritéria adekvátní aktualizace mohou vést k pojmové redukci, zahlcení irelevantními informacemi, nebo jinak narážet na kritérium funkce. Naplnění všech zde představených kritérií ilustruji na analogii dovednosti, kterou jakožto aktualizaci představila Julia Annasová.

Tamada: Gelenekten Güncelliğe Türkistan’da Bir Söz Ustası
Authors: BAYRAM Bülent
Published: December 2022

Çarlık döneminde başlayan Rus hâkimiyeti neticesinde Rus kültürü ile tanışma, Kazak lehçesinin yazı
dili hâline gelişi, ana dilde eğitim veren kurumların ortaya çıkışı Kazaklar için yeni bir dönemin başlangıcı
kabul edilebilir. Sovyet döneminde yerleşik hayata geçişin devlet eliyle hızlandırılması, örgün eğitimin yaygınlaşması Kazak Türkçesi ve kültürü üzerindeki önemli değişiklikleri ortaya çıkarır. Bu süreç sadece sözlü gelenek üzerinde etki göstermekle kalmamış, büyük yerleşim birimlerinde Kazak Türkçesini kamusal alandan ve bazı yerlerde gündelik hayattan da silmiştir. Sovyet sonrası dönemde, Kazakistan’ın dünyaya açılma sürecini takiben Batı kültürünün de Kazak gelenek ve göreneklerine tesiri söz konusudur. Bu süreç hâlen devam etmektedir. Kazak kültürü üzerinde derin izler bırakan ve bırakmaya devam eden bu süreçlere rağmen güçlü Kazak sözlü geleneğine has söz ustalığı, modern hayatın farklı alanlarında kendisini gösterir. Kazakistan’ın güneyinde yer alan Türkistan şehri, farklı kültürel özellikleriyle dikkat çeker. Şehrin kamusal alanında ve gündelik yaşamda Kazak Türkçesinin hâkimiyeti, şehrin öne çıkan farklılıklarından biridir. Modernleşmenin hızla devam
ettiği şehirde, geleneksel kültürün pek çok unsuru modern hayata taşınmaktadır. Özellikle Kazak kültüründe
çok önemli bir yere sahip olan toy ve toyla ilgili geleneklerin modern hayatın bir parçası hâline geldiği gözlemlenmektedir. Kazakların bu tür toplantılarını yönetenlere Kazak Türkçesinde “asaba” denilir. Ancak Rusçadan alıntılanan “tamada” kelimesi bu kişi için daha yaygın kullanılmaktadır. Tamadalar, bu işi asıl meslekleri olarak yaparlar. Bazı kişiler de asıl mesleklerinin yanında ikinci bir iş olarak tamadalık yapar. Sözlü ve geleneksel kültüre hâkim olan tamadalar, toylar başta olmak üzere çeşitli vesilelerle düzenlenen toplantıları başlangıcından sonuna kadar idare etmekle yükümlüdürler. Onlar, destandan atasözü ve deyimlere kadar halk edebiyatının farklı türlerine ait malzemeyi maharetle kullanan söz ustası sunuculardır. Aynı zamanda sunumlarını daha etkili kılmak için modern hayatın getirdiği imkân ve yeniliklerden de istifade ederler. Farklı modern eğitim kurumlarından mezun olmuş bu sanatçıların icra ettikleri iş karşılığında aldıkları ücret kendilerinin tanınırlığı, ustalığı ile doğru orantılı olarak artmakta veya azalmaktadır. Makalede asaba /tamada terimleri ele alınacak; ardından tamadaların mesleği seçişleri, mesleklerinde uzmanlaşma süreçleri, repertuvarları, icra tarzları Kazak sözlü kültür geleneği çerçevesinde değerlendirilmiştir. Tamadalar, bir kültür aktarıcısı olarak irdelenmiş ve onların gelenekte var olan “jırav”, “akın” gibi söz ustalarının şehirdeki temsilcileri mi yoksa bunlardan bağımsız gelişmiş sanatçılar mı oldukları sorusuna da cevap aranmıştır. Makalede, Türkistan tamadalarının genel icra özelliklerinin tanıtılması ve işlevsel olarak incelenmesi hedeflenmektedir. Kapsamı aşmamak için art zamanlı ve eş zamanlı bir karşılaştırmaya gidilmeyecektir.

Issues and Challenges Faced by Institutions Giving Management Education in India and Strategies to be Adopted for the Survival
Authors: Shetty Deepti , Gurav Vidhya S.
Published: December 2022

Management education is considered as elitist, precious and professional course as it attracts young candidates who are very passionate and motivated by the positive consequences associated with management education to either become a successful manager or to set an example by becoming successful entrepreneur. Management education in India is predominately a derivative of western management thought and practice. Occasionally, management schools draw some inferences from Indian epics, shastras and practices. It may be worthwhile to notice that management itself as a discipline has evolved from fundamental disciplines of philosophy, psychology, economics, accounting, computer science, mathematics, statistics and industrial engineering. In this decade India has witnessed a drastic change in higher education. Especially management education is witnessing an exponential growth in terms of number of institutes imparting management education which are usually termed as Business Schools or Management Institutions. In this paper authors have tried to explore the present situation of management education in India. This paper also studies the trends prevailing in management education in India, and tries to find out how effectively the management education helps the industries as well as how does it help one to become successful entrepreneur. Further the paper explains the emerging issues of management education in India and also explores the strategies and policies to be implied to improve the quality of management education and survive in long run. This paper throws light on existing literatures in management education in India as well as discusses the challenges faced by management institutions.

Authors: Phiri Millicent Mubiana , Tembo Borniface Namushi
Published: December 2022

Purpose: This study sought to analyze how economic growth in developing countries is influenced by public borrowing referencing on Rwanda as a case study.  

Methodology: The study used time series data from 1980 to 2018. The study used domestic debt and external debt to analyze how it influences Rwanda’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). To achieve this objective, secondary data was collected from the National Bank of Rwanda and the debt office in Rwanda. The study employed multiple regression model to identify the relationship between the dependent variable (GDP) and the independent variables (domestic debt and external debt). The t-test was used to confirm the formulated hypotheses at the 5% significance level.

Findings: The study found out that a positive relationship exists between IMF Loan and Rwanda’s gross domestic product, while a negative relationship exists between domestic debts and Rwanda’s gross domestic product, which violates the Keynesian theory of public debt.

Conclusion: The study concludes that both domestic and external debt significantly affect economic growth in Rwanda.

Recommendation: The study recommend that developing countries should develop a good structure of Debt Management Office including a plan for capacity building in order to make its proper debt strategy analysis without external support. The study also recommend developing countries to reduce reliance on internal borrowing to reduce competition between citizens and the government which can reduced economic growth. Furthermore, the study recommend developing countries to account for public debts and ensure that such debts are solely acquired for economic purposes rather that political purposes.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of personality traits and political efficacy on electoral outcomes among selected female parliamentary contestants during general elections in Angola.

Methodology: It used purposive and snowball sampling methods. Data was collected using the BFI and PES Scales. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze participant’s demographic information. A One-way ANOVA was used to examine differences while a Chi-Square was used to examine associations between successful and non-successful contestants.

Findings: The study found a positive association between external efficacy and electoral outcome χ2 (2, n=42) = 8.04, p = .005. An ANOVA yielded no significant difference in extraversion between successful (M = 4.18, SD = 1.00) and non-successful (M = 0.519, SD = .519) participants (F (1, 40) =.984, p = .327); no significant differences in neuroticism between successful (M = 2.00, SD =.54) and non-successful (M = 1.99, SD =.533) participants (F (1, 40), .005, p = .946); no significant difference in openness between successful (M = 3.89, SD =.563) and non-successful (M = 3.72, SD =.734) participants (F (1, 40), .717, p = 402).

Conclusion: In conclusion, the study found personality traits and political efficacy judgments as able to determine electoral outcomes. It was evident that external and internal political efficacy associated with electoral success and moderate the effect of personality traits.

Recommendation: The study proposed that female political aspirants should seek personality assessment and counselling to enhance self-understanding, harness the strengths of their personality trait and manage its weaknesses and they should nurture personality traits and political efficacy judgements that enhance their connection and favor with the electorate.

Published: December 2022

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the link between regional trade of Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania and sustainability of the countries.

Methodology: The study utilized a nonexperimental panel study. Panel data analysis was adopted in this study because of the sample size and the data used is cross-sectional. To test for autocorrelation, two common tests were used. That is the Baltagi and Wu’s LBI test or the Durbin Watson modified test. These tests are able to handle all sorts of panel data with minimal bias and great efficiency.

Results: The region recorded an average 26.02% GDP investment rate. There was an average 41.99 percent and 2.03 percent growth in extra regional and intraregional trade respectively. This clearly showed that the EAC countries (Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda) have participated more in trade with other non-EAC member states than with EAC member states.

Conclusion: From the empirical findings, this study concludes that sustainability and trade in the Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania have a relationship that varies across countries. Kenya has a significant unidirectional relationship between intra-regional trade and the growth of GDP per capita while all the other countries reveal that such a relationship does not exist.

Recommendation: Policy recommendations suggested that Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania presidents should implement strategies that enhance cooperation and integration. This is the case because empirical results indicate intra-regional trade contributes a huge chunk with respect to economic growth in the EAC countries.

Purpose: The Seed priming is an efficient method for synchronizing germination and increasing seed vigor. The experiment was performed in Sindh Agriculture University, Tando Jam, Sindh, Pakistan, to study and quantify the effect of different types of seed priming on the seed germination percentage and shoot and root length of pea.

Methodology: The experiment was laid down in randomized complete block design with split plot arrangements. Five different priming treatments we used; T1 Soaking in water for 12 hours, T2 Soaking in 50oC hot water for 10 minutes, T3 Soaking in 2% NaCl solution for 10 minutes, T4 Soaking in 50% H2SO4 solution for 10 minutes, T5 Control (no priming).

Findings: The results indicated a significant/ high effect of the priming treatments on the germination percentage, length of shoot, and length of roots. The highest germination percentage about (98%), the highest length of shoot about (4.26 cm), and the highest length of root about (10.92 cm) were observed from T3. The lowest germination percentage about (76%), the lowest length of shoot about (2.24cm), or the lowest length of root about (1.12 cm), result was observed from the (T5). These treatments were followed by germination percentage of about (94%), shoot length about (3.54 cm), and the length of root about (9.74 cm) from T2. It was followed by germination percentage of (88%) shoot length about (3.34 cm), length of root about (8.28 cm) from T1. This was followed by the germination percentage about (86%), shoot length about (2.44 cm), and length of root about (8.4 cm) from T4.

Conclusion: Result of this experiment show significant effect of the priming treatment on the majority of seed germination and growth of components in the pea grain, including seed germination percentage, shoot and root length of pea.

Recommendations: The study recommended that farmers to adopt seed priming. These practices among smallholder’s farmers should focus on enhancement of farmer awareness and know about seed priming. When farmers see that seed does not germinate properly like they expect, they should apply seed priming treatments.
