Published: December 2021

The aim of the study was to assess the feasibility of a 4-week home based attention retraining of people with mild or moderate traumatic brain injury. Purposive sampling was done to choose seven participants with attention deficit with mild or moderate traumatic brain injury as the sample of study. The Intervention consisted of tasks such as cancellation of letters, cancellation of symbols with distracters and dictation. Training in administering the intervention was given for patients as well as their caregivers. A baseline assessment for the above mentioned parameter and post-test assessment (after 5 weeks) were done on the participants to assess the impact of the intervention. The research design was informal experimental design before and after without control group. The post-test scores showed that the home based attention retraining has a positive impact on the attention of the participants. However, this couldn’t be proved statistically because of its small sample size. The involvement of the caregiver as well as the motivation level of the participant was observed to have significant impact on the participants’ performance along with several others. Home- based attention retraining was found to be effective, further rigorous studies with larger sample size and control group is suggested.

Published: December 2021

In India comprehensive house hold data on this prevalence and costs of domestic violence are lacking. The multi-site study by the international clinical epidemiologists network (INCLEN)is a pioneering effort  to estimate comparable rates of violence within and across: India, chile, Brazil, Egypt and Philippines. According to Violence Prevention Alliance under Global Campaign for Violence Prevention (WHO, 1997), “Violence is the intentional use of physical force or power, threatened or actual, against oneself or against a group or community that either results in or has a high likelihood of resulting in psychological harm, mal development or deprivation”. Children are exposed to or experience domestic violence in many ways. In most domestic violence poses a serious threat to children’s emotional, psychological and physical well-being, particularly if the violence is chronic.

Authors: Gyanesh Kumar Tiwari
Published: December 2021

The present study aimed to explicate the impacts of a set of positive behaviours i.e., sustainable behaviours in shaping the nature and extent of happiness of the graduate students. Two hundred undergraduate students with equal number of male and female served as the participants in the present study. Six components of sustainable behaviours and happiness of the participants were measured with the help of the two standardized psychometric tools. The results evinced that the male participants demonstrated higher mean scores on energy conservation behaviours, mobility and transportation, waste avoidance and social behaviours toward conservation components of sustainable behaviours as compared to their female counterparts. Contrarily, the females showed higher mean scores on consumerism and recycling components of the same measure as compared to the males. Overall, the male scored significantly higher on the sustainable behaviours as compared to the females. Likewise, the male participants also achieved higher mean score on the measure of happiness as compared to the females. All the dimensions of sustainable behaviours were positively correlated with happiness. In addition, all the dimensions of sustainable behaviours significantly predicted happiness of the participants. The results of the study have been discussed in the light of current theories of environment, sustainable behaviours and happiness. The results of the study have significant implications for the policy makers, administrators, researchers, environmentalists and the public at large. The future directions of research have been discussed. An attempt has also been made to raise some theoretical and practical issues which are not only pertinent to the academia of today but also carry practical implications for all human beings.

Powerful Scientific Projective Technique KANEHA-TIR-Ψ uses an “Integrated and Intensified-Ψ Entangled Quantum Computing”
Authors: Kapil Chandra Agarwal
Published: December 2021

We present scientific basis of Kapil-Neha Total Internal Reflection Quantum Mechanical Projection Wave function Ψ Technique (KANEHA-TIR-Ψ Projective Technique). KANEHA-TIR-Ψ projective technique uses an integrated computing approach of quantum entanglement for brain’s functioning, programming, training and development. This technique simultaneously stimulates and applies forces/correlations on trillions of elements of fine neural networks of different sections of human brain. As a result, those elements process/entangle/correlate information among each other by ‘intensified and integrated quantum-mechanical evanescent wave tunnelling of their neuro-energy wave function potentials into neighbouring neurons and cerebrospinal fluid. This technique is so powerful that under healthy environmental conditions – it can even regenerate/repair brain’s undeveloped/damaged neuron fine tissues/ neural-network. Experiments suggest that under suitable conditions of quantum-growth, KANEHA-TIR-Ψ projective technique has shown neurogenesis ‘possible’ even in adulthood age. KANEHA-TIR-Ψ projective technique is a revolutionary invention in the field of quantum-biophysics, mental-assessment, clinical-diagnosis, quantum-entanglement, quantum super-computing, neurogenesis, and non-destructive medical surgeries. It also provides ‘firm-evidences’ about quantum computing nature of human brain using electromagnetic wave signals.

Published: December 2021

The ancient Indian Vedic text places emphasis on balanced living through a conscious strive to evolve from lower states of being to higher ones thus providing physical, spiritual and psychological wellbeing. Similarly the western thought places emphasis on working on physical and psychological well being for humans to flourish and realise their infinite potential.  Hence, the present investigation is an attempt to draw a concomitance between Indian and Western Psychology on the topic of psychological well being and how wisdom and satvikta are related to this concept. For the purpose of this study a sample of 100 university students (50 males and 50 females) between the ages of 18-24 years were selected. Three scales namely- (i) PWAS (Practicing Wisdom Assessment Scale) (ii) Trigunatmak Personality Inventory, and (iii) Ryff’s Psychological Well Being were used.  Regression analyses was done.

A Theoretical Perspective of the Effect of Assumptions on Emotional Well-being of an Individual
Authors: Sanjay B Kadam  , Parnika R Kokate
Published: December 2021

A useful definition of emotional wellbeing is offered by the Mental Health Foundation: ‘A positive sense of wellbeing which enables an individual to be able to function in society and meet the demands of everyday life; people in good mental health have the ability to recover effectively from illness, change or misfortune.’

Some benefits of gaining greater emotional well-being include knowing that one’s needs are important and that individual deserve to have a life where he or she feel happy and secure. As individuals achieve emotional balance, they are able to identify their heart’s desires, take positive action, and make changes in own life.

Emotional well-being is a term that has seen increasing use in recent decades. The implications of decreased emotional well-being are related to mental health concerns such as stress, depression, and anxiety. These in turn can contribute to physical ill-health such as digestive disorders, sleep disturbances, and generally lack of energy (“Emotional Well Being & Mental Health”, Harvard Health Publications). Enhanced emotional well-being is seen to contribute to upward spirals in increasing coping ability (Fredrickson et.al. 2002).
Significance of Colour Usage in Cognitive Mind Maps to Enhance Academic Achievement
Authors: Chandini Bhoopal  , Dr. Saroj Arya
Published: December 2021

Colour is a significant aspect of Cognitive Mind Maps which are visual representations of a subject to enhance recall. Entire lessons form visual images with key words. Scientific studies indicate a basis for relating colour and its effects to memory and recall. Colour plays a pivotal role in successful encoding, storage and retrieval of information.  Extensively used in the corporate world, research studies involving Mind Maps using colours, in U.K. and Australian schools claim successful results. There is little documented/published evidence of the same at high school levels in India. Sound educational systems but changed lifestyles have joint families-now nuclear, with high school ‘latch key’ children succumbing to dangerous distractions like TVs and computerized gadgets. School children not supervised closely may not perform to their intrinsic potential. Dependence on guides/question banks cause students to memorize answers without understanding lesson concepts. Research on Mind Maps with colour, as a teaching/self study aid, will find potential for application in NCERT/SCERT textbooks.

In the present study, Spiritual Intelligence and its correlates were examined among adolescents in order to gain insight into the profile of spiritually intelligent adolescents. Since spirituality can be a protective factor at the tender age of adolescence, a need was felt to envisage the present study. For this purpose, 75 young adults were administered Spiritual Intelligence Self report Inventory (King, 2008), Coping Strategies Inventory (Tobin et al.,1989) and Brief Strengths Test (Peterson & Seligman, 2004). Intercorrelation analysis of all the variables and multiple regression analysis of character strengths on spiritual intelligence yielded some significant positive results. Engagement coping strategy shared a significant positive association with Spiritual Intelligence (p<.01). Among character strengths, Spirituality, Gratitude, Self control, Love, Bravery (p<.01), Appreciation of beauty, Optimism, Leadership, Forgiveness, Social intelligence, Kindness, Love of learning, Curiosity, and Critical thinking (p<.05) emerged as significant contributors of Spiritual Intelligence. Only Humor shared a negative association with S.I.

Published: December 2021

Adolescent nutrition is therefore important for supporting the physical growth of the body and for preventing future health problems. For many adolescents, inadequate quality and quantity of food are the prime determinates of nutrition problems. Micronutrient malnutrition and chronic energy deficiency resulting in thinness (low body mass index or BMI). The marriage of girls at young ages in India leads to teenage pregnancy and motherhood. Young women, who become pregnant and have child births, experience a number of health, social, economic, and emotional problems. For the present study, the hospital located at Sanganeri gate Jaipur (Mahila zila chikitsalya) was selected. Present study indicates that there is positive relation between BMI of respondents and birth weight of their newborns (p<0.05). Birth weight of the infant is directly related with maternal weight gain and BMI. In the present study 70% of the respondents were anemic.  Severe anemia was found to be 3%, which is a serious finding and this can lead to maternal and neonatal morbidity. Current study showing that, hemoglobin level of the respondents has direct impact on birth weight of new born. Babies of anemic mothers tend to be of LBW (p< 0.001). Adolescent girls as such suffer from mild to moderate anemia. Added to this, adolescent pregnancy can become a threat to her life. Hence, there is a need for educating adolescent girls on harmful effect of teenage pregnancy and also the importance of IFA supplementation, not only during adolescence but also in pregnancy. Thus, the findings show that the entire health and nutritional factors are inter-related.

In response to the decline of students’ academic performance in non-western climes, this study investigated the effects of teachers’ lecturing style (interactive and non-interactive lecturing style), students’ seating position (front seat, middle seat and back seat) and students’ seating preference (front seat, middle seat and back seat) on recall, using Secondary School students of a College in Ibadan. The study adopted a 2 x 3 x 3 Factorial between subjects design. Data was collected from one hundred and eight participants (108) who were selected randomly for the study and randomly assigned to groups. The result shows a significant difference in recall for lecturing style at F (1, 90) = 14.127; P < .01, (interactive lecturing style having a mean of 9.65 and the non-interactive lecturing style with a mean of 7.96). This shows that the interactive lecturing style has a more positive effect on recall. Students’ seating position and seating preference shows no significant difference in recall at F (2, 90) = 1.981; P >.05 and F (2, 90) = 0.000; P > .05 respectively. It was also found that there was no significant interaction effect of the three variables on recall at F (4, 90) = 1.138; P > .05. This study therefore recommends that teachers and instructors should employ an interactive lecturing style to help students have better recall and therefore perform better academically. Also further research should be carried out with a more representative sample in non-western climes.
