The present study aims to investigate the distribution and diversity of dipterous flies in Tayma (Saudi Arabia) during the spring of 2018. A total of 12 dipterous species were collected from three different sites located in Tayma (Tabuk, Saudi Arabia) located in the Northern part of Saudi Arabia. The taxa of flies were dominated by Musca domestica and Musca sorbens. No significant difference were observed between the total number of flies collected using different traps (t-test, P>0.05) and among the studied sites (ANOVA, P>0.05). The highest number of flies was recorded from Site 3 (a cattle farm). However, lower number of flies was reported from the dates palm farms. In conlusion, the species Musca domestica were found to be the most abundant species in all locations with remarkable high abundance in animal facilities (slaughter house and animal farm). The pheromone traps were found to be the most effective trap catching high number of individuls and high number of fly species.

ABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan mengamati perbandingan teknik kastrasi pada caudal dan vas deferent terhadap bobot badan, panjang dan volume skrotum pada sapi Bali. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan pada bulan Juni sampai Agustus 2016 dilaksanakan dikandang percobaan Jurusan Peternakan, Fakultas Pertanian, Universitas Sriwijaya. Metode penelitian menggunakan 6 ekor sapi Bali dibagi menjadi  dua  teknik,  Pertama  3  ekor  sapi   yang  dikastrasi  dengan  teknik pemotongan pada  caudal (P0) dan kedua 3  ekor sapi  yang dikastrasi dengan teknik pemotongan pada vas deferent (P1) metode statistik yang digunakan adalah uji  T-Test.  Hasil  penelitian  menunjukan  adanya  perbedaan  bobot  badan  pada kedua metode teknik kastrasi pada caudal maupun pada vas deferent, sedangkan pada panjang dan volume skrotum tidak memberikan perbedaan yang secara signifikan terhadap perlakuan kedua metode kastrasi baik pada caudal maupun vas deferent.Kata Kunci: Sapi Bali, Kastrasi, Bobot Badan, Caudal, Vas Deferent, Skrotum. ABSTRACT This research aims was to study comparison orchiectomy techniques on caudal and vas deferent on body weight, the length and volume scrotum in Bali cattle. This research was conducted in June to August 2016 held in Animal Farm of Animal Science, Faculty of Agriculture, Sriwijaya University. The research method used 6 Bali cattle is divided into two techniques, first 3 cattle orchiectomy with technique of cutting in the caudal (P0) and second 3 cattle orchiectomy with technique of cutting in the vas deferent (P1) were applied in analyzes this research by using T-Test statistic method. The result showed differences in body weight between orchiectomy on the caudal and vas deferent, whereas on the length and volume of the scrotum did not give a significant difference to the treatment of orchiectomy between on the caudal and vas deferent.Keywords: Bali Cattle, Orchiectomy, Body Weight, Caudal, Vas Deferent, Scrotum.

Radiographic Mandibular Indices serve as easy and relatively cheap tools for evaluating bone mineralization. Objectives: To examine the effect of age and gender on three mandibular indices: the panoramic mandibular index (PMI), the mandibular ratio (MR) and the mandibular cortical index (MCI), among Libyan population. Methods: The three indices were measured on 317 digital (OPGs) of adult humans (155 males, 162 females). The sample was divided into six age groups (from 18-25 years through 56-65 years). The measurements were analyzed for interactions with age and sex, using SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Studies) software version no. 22. The tests employed were two way ANOVA, the unpaired T-test and chi-square test. Results: The mean PMI fluctuated between 0.37 s.d. 0.012 and 0.38 s.d. 0.012. among the sixth age groups. One-way ANOVA statistical test revealed no significant of age on PMI. On the other hand gender variation has effect on PMI, since independent sample t-test disclosed that the difference between the male and female PMI means statistically significant. ANOVA test showed that the means of MR among age groups showed a negative correlation i.e. MR mean declined from 3.01 in 18-25 age groups to 2.7 in 55-65 age groups. In contrary, the gender showed no effect on MR according two sample t-test at p> 0.05. In regards with MCI, statistical analysis showed that it affected by age that is C1 was decreasing by age while C2 and C3 were increased by age. Using chi square test the result indicated that there is a significant difference among the different age group and the two genders in MCI readings. Conclusion: PMI was influenced significantly by age but minimally by the gender. MR is not affected by gender but has a negative correlation with age. MCI is affected by both age and gender

ABSTRACT Toilet training is an effort to train children to be able to control and urinate (BAK) and defecate (BAB). Toilet training is one of the main tasks of children at toddler age. Toilet training is one of the main tasks of children in toddler age which is very important to be done to create independence in children in controlling BAK and BAB and children know the parts of the body and their functions. Data in 2012 shows that ± 60% of parents do not teach toilet training to children from an early age. The aim of the study was to find out the effectiveness of toilet training education on maternal behavior and toilet skills in toddler age training (18-36 months). The study was conducted in July-August 2018. This type of quantitative research used the design of the Quasy pretest and posttest experiment with non-equivalent control group design. Samples were 36 mothers and 36 children with purposive sampling technique. Data analysis used Paired t test, Wilcoxon test, Man-Whitney test an Independent t test. The results showed that toilet training education through lecture methods, modules and maze games was more effective than toilet training education through lecture and leaflet methods on children's knowledge and abilities. Conversely, for the role of mothers in supervision there is no significant difference in effectiveness. Health education is recommended in health promotion programs to increase maternal knowledge, the role of mothers and the ability of toilet training children independently.

This study aims to determine the university students’ level of motivation in terms of different variables. A study group of this research has been designed through one of the non-random sampling methods, Using appropriate sampling, 606 students from Faculty of Education of C.U. have been involved in this study. Motivation scale in English Language Learning developed by Mehdiyev,Usta,Uğurlu (2015) was used as an instrument of data collection. T-test and one - way analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used to resolve problems of this research. As a result of the research the motivation level of university students hasn’t been revealed significantly different regarding to the gender variable. However, considering the t-test results of motivation scale dimensions, confidence, attitude and personal use, significant difference is seen in favour of women in personal use dimension. The level of language learning motivation of female students is higher than men’s regarding to personal use dimension. However, men’s and women’s views don’t differ significantly in attitude and confidence dimensions. University students don’t present significant differences in terms of birth place, parent’s education level, total motivation scores and confident, attitude and personal dimensions. Students’ motivation levels are seen not to be influenced by the places such as village, provision or city where they have spent the most of their lifetime. At the same time the findings revealed that parental status variable in terms of primary, secondary and university graduates has no effects on students’ motivation.
