Investigation the role of psychological, environmental and physical factors in tendency to addiction

Abstract Objectives The ability to self-feed using utensils develops steadily from late infancy through toddlerhood. Here, we examine differences in food acceptance when infants and toddlers are self-fed versus caregiver-fed. Methods Caregivers (89% mothers) and their infants/toddlers (n = 57, 46% female, 86% black) aged 6–11 months (n = 13), 12–23 months (n = 29), and 24–36 months (n = 15) participated in laboratory visits that were video recorded. Children were offered both smooth and lumpy potato purees on a spoon. Caregivers were instructed to offer each texture until the child accepted 2 bites or refused 3 times. Trained coders watched the videos to determine who controlled each offer (caregiver, child, or both) and rated the child's acceptance of each offer (4-point scale: 0 = refusal, 1 = enforced, 2 = accept, 3 = anticipation). Acceptance was further dichotomized into refusal (0 or 1) or acceptance (2 or 3). Chi-square analyses were conducted to test the association between acceptance and who controlled the spoon offers for each bite, for each age group. Results Infants (6–11 months) were fed by their caregivers during 100% of offers. Younger toddlers (12–23 months) were fed the majority of offers by their caregiver (66%) and were the only age group to have shared control of some offers with their caregiver (4%). Older toddlers (24–36 months) were fed 50% of offers by their caregiver. An association was observed between acceptance and control of the spoon for both younger toddlers (χ2 = 16.21, P < .001) and older toddlers (χ2 = 51.22, P < .001). Both groups of children were more likely to accept smooth and lumpy potato purees when they had the opportunity to self-feed (Standardized residuals = 2.2 and 3.4) and were more likely to reject offers controlled by the caregiver (SR = −2.4, −3.7). Conclusions Both younger and older toddlers in our cohort were more likely to accept smooth and lumpy purees when they had the opportunity to self-feed compared to when they were fed by their caregivers. These findings suggest that giving children opportunities to self-feed may facilitate food acceptance during toddlerhood. Funding Sources None.

And Control

Contemporary societies seem to be obsessed with history. This is reflected in the popularity of historical books, films, and reenactments. In our research, we aimed to assess the specific types of content that interest people when exploring their national histories and the psychological factors motivating such explorations. Following the two-dimensional model of social cognition that points to morality and competence as the main dimensions in individual and group perception, we distinguished interest in competence-related aspects of national history (control) from interest in historical moral actions (moral agency). Two studies performed in Poland and Germany showed that in both countries people’s interest in history is structured in a similar way, in which moral agency and control play essential roles. Additionally, in both countries people reacted to individual control threats with enhanced curiosity about the past moral agency of their nations. We discuss these results within the framework of the model of group-based control and compensatory control processes.

The purpose of this research is to determine the correlation of depression, anxiety and stress to blood pressure in the elderly. Hypertension has been treated with drug therapy and control of food intake so far, but there are not many treatments related to psychological factors that can cause hypertension. Psychological factors have a role in influencing the emergence of physical illness. This research uses a quantitative correlation method design with data collection using DASS Test to measure the level of depression, anxiety, and stress with validity of 0.266-0.769 and reliability of 0.939 while blood pressure measurements were measured using sphygmomanometer. The research results showed that there was a very strong correlation between depression, anxiety and stress on blood pressure in the elderly with a correlation of 0.875 which means that the higher the level of depression, anxiety, and stress in the elderly, the higher the tendency of hypertension.

Physiotherapy is an important component in the prevention and treatment of obstetric and gynecological pathology. Physical factors should be used as primary or secondary treatment methods. The effects of physiotherapy are based on the absorption of physical (electrical, radiation, magnetic, etc.) energy by living tissues. The result of treatment depends on the physical factor, the number and a single dose of the procedures received. The best is the use of physiotherapy during several procedures (course of treatment). In connection with the progress of science and technology, new methods of physiotherapy have appeared: magnetic, infrared-laser-therapy, ozone, impulse-low-frequence-physiopherapeutical-apparat (ILPHYSA)-therapy, extremely-hign-frequence(EHF)-therapy. These methods began widely to use in gynecology.

Snowball Sampling Technique

Human benefits from wildlife are apparently declining over decades as the extent and intensity of threat to protected areas continue. This study assessed nature of community participation in wildlife management in Baturiya Sanctuary with a view to providing information for active participation of communities in the management of this area. A total of five communities namely: Shinge (4km west), Illala (12km west), Kokiro (3km east), Zigobiya (7km east) and Abanaguwa (5km north) were purposively sampled based on their proximity to the sanctuary. Snowball sampling technique was used to select fifty-seven (57) participants for the survey. Questionnaire and Interview were conducted to elicit the knowledge and perspectives of participants on the role of community in wildlife management. Numerical values were analysed in percentage while chi-square was used to test the levels of participation among communities. Findings of this study indicate that only 18 of the 57 sampled participants are involved in wildlife management. It also shows that there is decrease and extinction of wildlife especially birds, primates and reptiles in the sanctuary. The study also found four categories of participants: active-voluntary, active-institutional, passive-voluntary and passive-institutional. It shows that 37.50% active and 62.50% are passive participants respectively. Benefits of community participation include control of poaching (43.85%) and control of trade in parts of animals (25%). Majority of the participants (83.33%) engage in wildlife management voluntarily based on perceived benefits derived from the sanctuary. Poor governance (43.85%) and weak community institutions (31.57%) are the main limitations to community participation in wildlife management. This study therefore recommended that community leaders and youth should be strengthened and officially recognized as stakeholders in wildlife management and governance of natural resources in Nigeria at large.

In continuing studies on the role of viruses in biochemical transformation, Dr. Munyon has succeeded in isolating a highly infectious human herpes virus. Fluids of buccal pustular lesions from Sasha Munyon (10 mo. old) uiere introduced into monolayer sheets of human embryonic lung (HEL) cell cultures propagated in Eagles’ medium containing 5% calf serum. After 18 hours the cells exhibited a dramatic C.P.E. (intranuclear vacuoles, peripheral patching of chromatin, intracytoplasmic inclusions). Control HEL cells failed to reflect similar changes. Infected and control HEL cells were scraped from plastic flasks at 18 hrs. of incubation and centrifuged at 1200 × g for 15 min. Resultant cell packs uiere fixed in Dalton's chrome osmium, and post-fixed in aqueous uranyl acetate. Figure 1 illustrates typical hexagonal herpes-type nucleocapsids within the intranuclear virogenic regions. The nucleocapsids are approximately 100 nm in diameter. Nuclear membrane “translocation” (budding) uias observed.
