Relations Between French Plays and Ballets From 1581 to 1650
Authors: Lancaster H. Carrington
Published: January 2021

As there is abundant evidence, reliable though anonymous, that scholarly circles are not without special interest just now in the ballet, it may be the proper time to consider that form of art in some of its historical relations to the theater. A recent book by Henry Prunières, le Ballet de cour en France avant Benserade et Lully, gives us for the first time a thorough treatment of the ballet during one of its great periods, the first half of the seventeenth century. It is only now, therefore, that the relations which then existed between the ballets and the plays of France can be adequately discussed. A full treatment of the subject would require and may attract the labors of a doctor's dissertation, but the general relationships can be established from material we already possess and special cases can be pointed out in which one genre borrowed directly and indisputably from the other.
X.—Love Fayned and Unfayned and the English Anabaptists
Authors: Daw E. Beatrice
Published: January 2021

The discovery by Mr. Arundell Esdaile of the fragmentary morality Love Fayned and Unfayned has contributed to the history of English drama a document of peculiar interest. The play can, I believe, lay claim to unique significance as reflecting a phase of religious controversy otherwise unrepresented in the drama. Although the fragmentary character of the material renders analysis difficult, the 243 extant lines contain evidence on the basis of which the play may be characterized as an allegorical defense of the sect of Anabaptists. It seems further to reflect, in one aspect, the influence of a group with which the Anabaptists had certain affinities,—the Family of Love.
Chaucer's Retractions
Authors: Tatlock John S. P.
Published: January 2021

At the end of Chaucer's Parson's Tale (I, 1081–92) the writer, speaking in his own person, asks the prayers of his readers that he may be forgiven, especially for his “translacions and endytings of worldly vanitees, the whiche I revoke in my retracciouns”; he gives a list of the principal ones, adding “and many another book, if they were in my remembrance”; and thanks Jesu Christ and all the saints for the works of edification which he has written. The question as to the genuineness of this passage may be approached from a new and more a priori point of view, if it still is a question; if it is not, the following facte will still throw light on the subject. I propose to discuss the history and implications of the word retracciouns, and certain parallels to Chaucer's list of his works and expression of dissatisfaction or satisfaction with them.
Congeeve as a Romanticist
Authors: Canby Henry Seidel
Published: January 2021

William Congreve is undeniably the most polished of our dramatic writers and probably the most witty. Of his four comedies, The Old Bachelor, The Double Dealer, Love for Love, and The Way of the World, the first is one of the most scurrilous plays in English, and the last one of the most exquisite. If this were all that is to be said of him, one might be content to leave him to the scholars and the connoisseurs who at present seem to be his only earnest readers. But there is another and a greater claim to be made for Congreve. There is the claim not merely that he should be regarded as a classic—an empty and neglectful honor—but also that he should have that loving perusal by a younger generation which is the rightful prerogative of a classic. A reputation for indecency, a suspicion that he is one of those “to be read for style only,” most of all, ignorance or a misunderstanding of the real quality of his plays, have made his immortality an immortality on shelves, bookcases, and desks, dusty altars for his brilliance. This is of little moment for Congreve, who professed to despise literary fame in his lifetime, and would ask for no popularity now, but it is of some importance for readers of our generation who have revived the old interest in published plays, and should not be frightened or discouraged from the best.
Spenser's Morrell and Thomalin
Authors: McLane Paul E.
Published: January 2021

It has been generally assumed that in the Morrell of the July eclogue of the Shepheardes Calender Spenser intended to satirize Dr. John Aylmer, bishop of London at the time of the composition and publication of this poem. Morrell's antagonist in this eclogue, Thomalin, has usually been considered a Puritan, but the Puritan so honored has been a matter of dispute among those scholars bold enough to hazard an identification. In this article I intend, first, to present in detail the grounds for Spenser's presumed dislike of Aylmer and to indicate Spenser's probable attitude towards him; second, to suggest that Dr. Thomas Cooper, bishop of Lincoln between 1571 and 1584, and definitely not a Puritan, is a more probable Thomalin.
Character-Types of Scott, Balzac, Dickens, Zola
Authors: Wenger Jared
Published: January 2021

To attempt any definition of the novel has become an increasingly risky business. Yet many an otherwise cautious student finds license to treat that genre as though it were synonymous with the character sketch. This attitude reaches its extreme in the preparation of “repertories” or “ditionaries” of a novelist's characters. There are, for example, the May Rodgers and M. F. A. Husband dictionaries of the Waverley characters, and the Cerfberr and Christophe repertory of the Human Comedy; there are no less than three Dickens dictionaries—those of Philip and Gadd, A. L. Hay ward, and Pierce; and there are J. G. Patterson's and F. C. Ramond's repertories for the Rougon-Macquart series. These works are eloquent of industry, patience, and enthusiasm. They show that each of the four novelists has to his credit some 2,000 characters. They offer, too, an admirable list of names, titles, professions, and activities, all from the brain and pen of one creator. Although these dictionaries afford pleasant moments to their authors and readers, beyond that they do not offer much answer to a student's queries. They do not tell of the function of each character in a story which was also the creation of the novelist.
Sidney and Ariosto
Authors: Townsend Freda L.
Published: January 2021

Put off by the casual tone of the poet who in his Arcadia, a “trifle … triflinglie handled,” seemed to be guided only by the whim of his sister, readers are often unable to reconcile the sprightly air of the cavalier raconteur with the serious intent of the young defender of poets and poesy. But giving proper weight to Sidney's “poetry must teach as well as delight,” critics have come to concede his sober purpose in romance as well as in apologetic. Sprezzatura, courtly grace, conceals, however, not only moral seriousness but also equal seriousness in poetic plan and procedure. We must look in the Arcadia for the careful artist as well as the edifying teacher. We must try to discover there that strong rein of order which Sidney thought necessary to check the “high flying libertie of conceit proper to the Poet,” that art which “doth give the fashion,” the traces of that Dedalus whom “the highest flying wit” must have to guide him.
Gay's Mastery of the Heroic Couplet
Authors: Brown Wallace Cable
Published: January 2021

In his literary reputation, John Gay has been less fortunate than his neo-classic contemporaries; for, added to nineteenth century neglect, he received little support from Johnson himself, whose “Life of Gay” is harsh and unsympathetic. Today, except for the lyrics in “The Beggar's Opera” and the Fables, Gay's poetry is more talked about than read; and more has been written about his life and times than about any of his work. Even when he is occasionally judged as a poet, there is little genuinely critical agreement. At one extreme, for instance, Mr. F. R. Leavis brackets Gay with Parnell, and remarks that they “are representative period figures, of very minor interest.” This is the more common view. But at the other extreme, Mr. Yvor Winters places Gay among “the chief masters of the heroic couplet.” Since these are but passing estimates, a detailed examination of Gay's heroic couplet poems should perform for his reputation a service long over-due.
Heines Geburtsjahr
Authors: Wadepuhl Walter
Published: January 2021

Die Frage nach dem Geburtsjahr Heinrich Heines, ob er 1797 oder 1799 geboren wurde, war schon zu des Dichters Lebzeiten viel umstritten. Man entschied sich damals für 1799, welches Jahr zuerst auch von Strodtmann angenommen wurde. Erst im Jahre 1891 veröffentlichte Elster die erste wissenschaftliche Untersuchung, worin er die Facta für 1797 und 1799 gegenüberstellte und zu dem Schluß gelangte, daß Heine nur im Jahre 1797 geboren sein könnte. Seine Ergebnisse wurden zuerst nicht angefochten, bis bei der hundertjährigen Geburtstagsfeier des Dichters die alte Frage wieder in den Vordergrund trat. Einige Verehrer entschlossen sich zur Feier im Jahre 1897, die meisten bestanden auf 1899. Zwischen 1897 und 1899 entstand nun eine Reihe meist belangloser Aufsätze über Heines Geburtsjahr; die Bekenner zum Jahre 1797 stützten sich auf Elsters Feststellungen, die zum Jahre 1799 auf die Angaben der Heineschen Familie. Aus der Unmenge von Beiträgen aus dieser Zeit —ich besitze 68 in meiner eigenen Bibliothek—müssen hier besonders die von Hüffer und Franzos berücksichtigt werden, welche ganz auf Elster fußen und ebenfalls das Jahr 1797 vertreten.
Coleridge's “Sir Leoline”
Authors: Starr Nathan Comfort
Published: January 2021

In The Road to Tryermaine, an illuminating study of the origins of Christabel, A. H. Nethercot states that Coleridge was indebted to Hutchinson's History of the County of Cumberland . . . (Carlisle, 1794-97) for the name of Christabel's father, Sir Leoline. This statement is based on a sentence found on page 17 of the first volume of Hutchinson which was taken (with minor variations) from the 1695 edition of William Camden's Britannia: “King Edmund, with the assistance of Leoline, King of Wales, spoiled Cumberland of all its riches; and having put out the eyes of Dunmaile, king of that country, granted that kingdom to Malcolm, King of Scots… .”
Structure and Symbol in Crashaw's Hymn in the Nativity
Authors: Neill Kerby
Published: January 2021

In his successive revisions of the Hymn in the Nativity, Crashaw shows a growing sense of form, and the final version, posthumously published in 1652, has a conceptual unity that raises it to a level of poetry considerably above that of the 1646 version. He achieved this by substituting structural symbols for mere sense images, by emending a few lines, by dropping one stanza, and by adding two very important new stanzas that make the structural pattern of the poem much clearer. These changes had a considerable effect on the rest of the poem because they placed it in a new context. Miss Wallerstein, who notes the “steady pruning of the purely sensuous elements,” and who calls these additional stanzas “the great stanzas which transmute the whole,” describes the final version of the poem as one of Crashaw's “few perfectly realized poems.” A comparison of the text of 1646 with the texts of 1648 and 1652 enables us to study the poet in the process of this realization and to see how large a part clarification of structure played in it.
Image and Idea in Yeats' the Second Coming
Authors: Weeks Donald
Published: January 2021

There are poets whose art is an accumulating cluster of images that become more and more identified with specific ideas. I believe Yeats to have been such a poet, in whom a cluster of images grew in significance to produce the great poems of the period from the first World War to the second. Generally accepted as one of Yeats' finest lyrics is The Second Coming. I believe that the poem gains in richness by being considered in the light of associations that had long preoccupied Yeats, and that are frequently found together in his writings: Shelley, and especially his Prometheus Unbound; the Great Memory; and the Second Coming.
Form as Function in Melville
Authors: Wright Nathalia
Published: January 2021

The objection raised by most of Melville's early biographer-critics to the form of his major novels has been found largely answerable by more exclusively textual scrutiny and by recognition of the satiric strain in his literary tradition. It is now widely agreed that such compositions as Moby-Dick and Billy Budd are complete designs, consisting of related parts. But the terms in which Melville's structure has been appraised have not commonly allowed for the operation within it of a structural theory. It has not yet been perceived that he belongs, with Emerson, Thoreau, and Whitman, among the American literary discoverers of the principle of organic form.
Pope's Social Satire: Belles-Lettres and Business
Authors: Reichard Hugo M.
Published: January 2021

The modern redemption of the Dunciad has been in part a demonstration that the poem deals with extant dunceness more than with forgotten dunces. By way of extending the demonstration, I wish to show how luminously Pope associates the spread of bad books with the dynamics of a commercialized society. While dealing of course with other problems too, the Dunciad and its pendants treat a notable aspect of the issue which pervades and unifies most of his mature satire—the antinomy of mercenary and humane values. Repeatedly between 1728 and 1743 Pope contemplates the predicament of a nation that is “sunk in lucre's sordid charms” and of men who are “alike in nothing but one lust of gold.” He protests the corrupt practices of politicians like Walpole, the extravagance of aristocrats like Timon, and the acquisitive enterprise of business men like Balaam. As far afield as the great Parisian banquet of the Dunciad (iv.549-564) Maynard Mack has sensitively detected Pope's animus toward a “money culture.” Since it underlies his general outlook of gloom, this animus is even behind the sighs for a “sinking land” which appear briefly amid the spacious optimism of the Essay on Man (iv.265-266). A similarity between two of Pope's finest symbols marks the special place of the Dunciad within his vision of evil: in the Epilogue to the Satires the goddess Vice rules an avaricious world by means of “golden chains” (i.147-148, 161-162); and Dulness, the deity of the Dunciad, fixes society to a bimetallic standard of “lead and gold” (iv.13-16).
Absolutism in Melville's Pierre
Authors: Dichmann Mary E.
Published: January 2021

Of all Melville's novels, the one which has proved most challenging to the critics, and which has been handled least satisfactorily by them, is Pierre—possibly because its great suggestiveness and its many levels of meaning make difficult any attempts at its analysis. Although, as Newton Arvin points out, an evaluation by literary standards shows Pierre to be “one of the most painfully ill-conditioned books ever to be produced by a first-rate mind,” its “badness is an active and positive, not merely a negative one ... the badness of misdirected and even perverted powers, but not of deficiency or deadness.” For, in its textural richness, which amounts, indeed, to a symbolic plethora, and in its ambiguities, the novel offers an almost limitless expanse for critical exploration.
The Apparition of Mrs. Veal: A Neglected Account
Authors: Baine Rodney M.
Published: January 2021

Daniel defoe's True Relation of the Apparition of Mrs. Veal must be restudied in the light of a somewhat longer and more detailed account which has escaped attention from students of literature. This neglected version adds considerable information concerning the apparition; when compared with Defoe's less complete report this account makes feasible an analysis of Defoe's treatment of the affair; and it gives so much information concerning the dramatis personae that it is now possible to identify almost all of them.
The Findern Anthology
Authors: Robbins Rossell Hope
Published: January 2021

Major manuscript anthologies of Middle English secular lyrics are rare; apart from the very early Harley MS. 2253 and the Charles d'Orleans translations, there are not more than three large collections: the early-sixteenth-century Bodleian MS. Rawlinson C. 813 (S. C. 12653), the Newton holograph, and the present manuscript, Ff. 1. 6 of the Cambridge University Library, which contains many well-known longer secular poems as well as a large group of short lyric poems.
MLA Foreign Language Proficiency Tests for Teachers and Advanced Students
Authors: Starr Wilmarth H.
Published: January 2021

I. Brief History of the Project: Since 1952, the Foreign Language Program of the Modern Language Association of America, responding to the national urgency with regard to foreign languages, has been engaged in a vigorous campaign aimed in large part at improving foreign-language teaching in our country.

In 1955, as one of its activities, the Steering Committee of the Foreign Language Program formulated the “Qualifications for Secondary School Teachers of Modern Foreign Languages,” a statement which was subsequently endorsed for publication by the MLA Executive Council, by the Modern Language Committee of the Secondary Education Board, by the Committee on the Language Program of the American Council of Learned Societies, and by the executive boards or councils of the following national and regional organizations: National Federation of Modern Language Teachers Associations, American Association of Teachers of French, American Association of Teachers of German, American Association of Teachers of Italian, American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese, American Association of Teachers of Slavic and East European Languages, Central States Modern Language Teachers Association, Middle States Association of Modern Language Teachers, New England Modern Language Association, Northeast Conference on the Teaching of Foreign Languages, Northwest Conference on Foreign Language Teaching, Philological Association of the Pacific Coast, Rocky Mountain Modern Language Association, South Atlantic Modern Language Association, and South-Central Modern Language Association.
Report of the Northeast Modern Language Association
Authors: Hofer Ernest H.
Published: January 2021

The Northeast Modern Language Association had a very productive year. Membership now numbers 1,000 (roughly), and although the strike caused obvious difficulties for members located in Canada, even that “blank” seems now to have regained constituency. Modern Language Studies, the periodical sponsored by the Association and published at the University of Rhode Island, appeared with predictable regularity—a fall issue, a spring issue—under the editorship of Edna Steeves (for English manuscripts) and Armand Chartier (for modern language manuscripts). Happily, the arrangement will continue an additional two years, at least, for the agreement between the University of Rhode Island and NEMLA has been extended through 1978, including a partial subsidy by that University. A faculty member of NEMLA, for $6.00 ($3.00 for graduate students), has received two issues of MLS and the chance to attend the conference, scheduled this year at the University of Vermont, Burlington. (Membership dues will rise to $10.00 for faculty and $5.00 for students this September.)
Epistemología de la literatura y educación literaria en el contexto escolar colombiano
Authors: García Dussán Éder
Published: January 2021

En este artículo de reflexión, nos proponemos esbozar los elementos fundamentales de una epistemología de la literatura que permita anudar tanto una postura conceptual como una metodológica, a propósito de la educación literaria en la universidad colombiana. Para lograr esto, acudimos a una definición esencialista débil de la literatura y a un método que combina premisas del análisis discursivo y la semiótica literaria, lo que permite construir un conjunto de criterios para la lectura de obras y la creación de textos estéticos como procesos esenciales en el contexto de una educación literaria. El resultado de tal propuesta permite exponer y describir unas alternativas pedagógicas mínimas, cuyo asiento es el concepto de competencia literaria que concede al educando capacidad de fruición, de reflexión crítica, de trabajo inferencial y de creatividad.

Analyses of Aggressiveness, Impulsiveness, and Demographics of the Drivers in Sulaimaniyah City Using Questionnaire Forms
Authors: Karim Hardy
Published: January 2021

In order to increase traffic safety on our roads, certain forms of behavior and personality traits of passenger car drivers were studied. As an attempt to understand the potential contribution of drivers’ impulsiveness and aggressiveness in traffic accidents in Sulaimaniyah City, this study was conducted. The correlation between drivers’ impulsiveness and aggressiveness were also explored. Participants, who filled Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS-11) and Aggressive Driving Behavior Questionnaire (ADBQ), were 244 drivers. The male drivers who answered the questionnaires were 143, while female drivers were 101. The results of the statistical analyses showed that male drivers are driving more aggressively than female drivers; as a result, male drivers faced higher numbers of traffic accidents than female drivers. There were no significant differences between male and female drivers regarding drivers’ impulsivity. Speeding as a measuring scale of the aggressive driving is significantly correlated with second-order impulsiveness subscales. The attentional and motor impulsiveness subscales are more correlated with the total score of the driving aggressiveness than non-planning subscale. There was moderate correlation between the impulsiveness total score and the overall aggressiveness score. The impulsiveness of the drivers was negatively correlated with the drivers’ ages and positively correlated with number of crashes; while the driving aggressiveness was significantly correlated with number of crashes and negatively with gender and age of the drivers. The traffic police in Sulaimaniyah City can benefit from the results of this paper during permitting driving license and enforcement processes.
FORMATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF PSYCHOSOMATIC DISORDERS
Authors: Bukataru Yuliana , Reva Marina , Berezya Ksenia
Published: January 2021

According to the conceptual provisions of modern integrative psychological medical science, which highlight the features of the classification of psychosomatic disorders, the basic is considered to be three aspects of psychosomatic defects: mental disorders manifested in the somatic sphere, mental disorders formed on the basis of somatic pathology, somatic disorders pathologies, personality anomalies and psychogenic factors. In summary, we can say that the main prerequisites for the formation and manifestation of psychosomatic disorders can be both conditions of psychosocial instability and disorders of major organ systems, such as nervous or endocrine. Researchers also agree that a number of psychosomatic disorders can be inherited, but their manifestation is not mandatory, depending on the environmental factors in which the individual is. Regarding the classification of psychosomatic disorders, there is no single system of classifications, but depending on which criterion is taken as the basis of classification, the most complete can be considered the classification proposed by K. Jaspers, R. Lemke and others.

The basis for the classification of psychopathological disorders are signs that are defined as criteria. So the key signs can be: organic symptoms, physiological correlates of anxiety, symptoms that appear during the formation and development of psychosomatic disorders.

INFLUENCE OF MANAGEMENT ON DEBT CORPORATE POLICY
Authors: Lutsenko S. I.
Published: January 2021

The author considers features of influence of finance solutions of management of the Russian public companies on debt policy. In a research are included indicators of internal growth and dividend payments by means of which it is possible to estimate corporate financial policy. Internal growth is the indicator of regulation of debt strategy, the including mechanism of precautionary motive. The dependence of the share price on the market value of assets defines installation of communication between the economic interests of shareholders and finance solutions of management. The indicator of dividend payments allows to estimate influence of external negative effects (shocks) on behavior of investors at profit assessment. Increase in dividend payments is connected with their financing from an external source. Management works in logic of precautionary motive, keeping a part of profit for further debt repayment before creditors. The management of the Russian companies not only influences the share price, but also regulates the level of a debt load. The company can use dividend payments on reinvestment of assets (as an investment resource). The author shows as the Russian public companies, solve a problem of adverse selection, switching to cheaper financing sources. The value of a debt is connected with the level of investment into the company. Pledge (property providing) is a guarantee for creditors. As, getting access to debt financing, the company provides to the creditor the complete information about property, thereby, reducing the risks connected with attraction of a debt. The Russian public companies react to changes of debt increase in value of size of assets that will be approved with recapitalization of the company (change of the capital structure due to debt increase and its use for dividend payouts to shareholders).

Does prophylactic tranexamic acid reduce blood loss in Indian women following vaginal delivery?
Authors: Arthi P. Nivedhana , N. R. Indu , B. Jalakandan
Published: January 2021

Background: Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) accounts for 25% to 33% of obstetric deaths every year. Anemia is a cause and consequence of PPH. Despite intense efforts to prevent anemia, many Indian women labour with low hemoglobin levels. Tranexamic acid (TXA), an antifibrinolytic, have been demonstrated to reduce blood loss and transfusion requirements in various surgeries including cesarean section. Objectives were to study the efficacy of TXA in effectively reducing blood loss in Indian women following vaginal delivery.Methods: This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was conducted on 200 patients scheduled for vaginal delivery. In addition to oxytocin 10 units, group T received TXA 15 mg/kg and group P received normal saline administered over 5 minutes. Estimated blood loss, Hemoglobin deficit, need for additional uterotonics, need for blood transfusion, incidence of PPH and adverse events were noted.Results: The fall in hemoglobin was significantly higher in group P (p<0.00001). Estimated 24 hour blood loss was significantly higher by a mean blood volume of 86.99 ml in group P compared to group T (p<0.00001). The incidence of PPH was lower in group T (2.8% versus 11.3%). There were no significant difference in the need for supplementary uterotonics (9.9% versus 15.5%) and the incidence of blood transfusion (2.8% versus 8.5%). No adverse maternal and fetal outcomes were noted.Conclusions: To reduce blood loss following vaginal delivery, TXA may be safely recommended as standard adjunct to Oxytocin for regular management of third stage of labour, especially in developing countries like India.

Background: Urological cancers (UC) remain a major global burden and a significant cause of high morbidity and mortality. In other to plan and tackle this burden, there is need to audit the pattern of these malignancies in our locality which is currently lacking.  Hence, the objectives of our study were to describe the histological pattern, frequency and demographic characteristics of urological cancers seen in Damaturu.Methods: The reports of all the urological specimens that were histologically diagnosed as malignant between November 2017 to October 2019 in the histopathology department of Yobe state university teaching hospital, were analyzed. The department keeps newly established cancer registry for the state.Results:  Fifty-five UC were diagnosed, with male to female ratio of 13.8:1. These UC constitute 34.1% of the 161 urological specimens assessed and 26.4% of all types of medical cancers diagnosed in the period of study. Prostate cancer dominates the UC (41; 73.8%), followed by bladder cancers (11; 19.8%) and the remaining kidney, penis and testicular cancers (1; 1.8%) each.Conclusions: Urological cancers are very common in our region, particularly prostate cancers in which majority were poorly differentiated. This report though analyzed few cancers, the proportion of UC is high. Urothelial cancer of the bladder is now more frequent than squamous cell carcinoma. This study can serve as basis for future epidemiologic studies targeting at the risk factors, awareness and prevention of UC.
Epidemiological determinants of parasitic infestation among 6-12 years old children in peri-urban area of Rohtak, Haryana, India
Authors: Devi Murti , Chayal Vinod
Published: January 2021

Background: Intestinal parasitic infestation is one of the commonest causes of chronic infection in humans in developing countries and is responsible for considerable morbidity and mortality. Despite the improved socio-economic conditions and elevated living standards, surprisingly it is still a public health problem even in developed countries, like the United States. Objectives of the study were to determine the association of factors associated with parasitic infestation among children of 6-12 years age.Methods:  A cross sectional survey approach was adopted to collect the data and 200 children (6-12 years) and their parents were finally included as per research criteria. Data was collected by interviewing the parents and children using structured interview schedule. Microscopic examinations of stool samples were also done for detection of ova and cysts of intestinal parasites.Results:  Out of 200 study subjects 65 (32.5%) were found to be positive for parasitic infestation namely Giardia lamblia (18.0%) E. histolytica (8.5%), Taenia (4.5%) and H. nana (1.5%). Majority of parasitic infestation i.e. (58.7%) was found among the children of illiterate mothers, (44.6%) in case of joint families and (44.8%) belonging to families having a monthly income less than Rs. 5,000.Conclusions: In this study, it was found that mother’s education, family income, type of family are significantly associated factors with parasitic infestation. The present study opens an area for the further planning such as improving the low socio-economic status, regular deworming of the children, promotion of usages of toilets and up gradation of water supply system as preventive measures in this setting.

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to large-scale behavioral changes and a significant psychological burden. This study aims to determine the effect of parent-adolescent relationships and parental marital quality on adolescents’ happiness during the pandemic. The research subjects were male and female adolescents between the ages of 18-21 that studied at state and private universities and lived with their parents. A binary logistic regression technique was used to examine the independence of the association between perceived parent-adolescent relationship, parental marital quality, sex, and allowance with happiness during the pandemic. The logistic regression analysis results showed that only two independent variables, namely perceived parent-adolescent relationship and parental marital quality, made a unique statistically significant contribution to the model. However, the strongest predictor was perceived parental marital quality, which recorded an odds ratio of 7.25.

Authors: Hikmiah Ziadatul , Rahajeng Unita Werdi
Published: January 2021

In predicting the future (future forecasting), individuals tend to overestimate the impact they might experience if there is a significant change in one aspect of their life. This study seeks to determine the best strategy to reduce the focusing illusion that occurs when participants are asked to imagine a worse situation (disability setting). This study is a quantitative randomized controlled trial (RCT), comparing three defocusing illusion scenarios (concrete events, change for better and worse and time-weighted) and the effect on the level of quality of life (QoL) of the participants. The results of this study showed a significant effect between the three treatments on the quality of life. The ‘change for the better and worse’ scenario is shown to be more effective at reducing the effect of the focusing illusion.

Self-esteem is based on positive or negative evaluations of oneself, whereas social comparison is the effort of defining oneself through comparison with other people. Online social comparison is different from offline social comparison. An individual’s self-esteem can be predicted from their interactions on social media through social comparison. This research aims to understand the idea of self-esteem amongst the Instagram users. In the process, this study explores the idea of comparison, and evaluates the social comparison as a predictor of self-esteem. This research uses descriptive and predictive methods, with a population of 2016 students of the Faculty of Psychology Education of the State University of Malang. The sample was taken using the saturation sampling technique or census. The research uses the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and the Iowa-Netherlands Comparison Orientation Measure. The data were further analysed with a descriptive analysis technique using mean value, whereas the hypothesis test uses the simple linear regression technique. The results show that Ho is rejected with a significance level of 0.000, R-value of 0.382, and R-squared value of 0.146, which implies that social comparison contributes towards the existence of self-esteem by 14.6%.
