The attention sustainability and its impact of social status in the class are current issues concerning the field of education are the reasons for delay in assimilating the learning material and early school dropout. Behind both of those problems stand psychological causes such as low attention sustainability, poor communication skills and lack of positive environment. The presented article aims to prove that sustainability of attention directly influences the social status of students in the class, and hence their overall development and the way they feel in the group. Making efforts to increase students’ attention sustainability could lead to an increase in the social status of the student and hence the creation of a favorable and positive environment for the overall development of the individual.

Rarely would an auteur choose a female protagonist as the lead character for one's debut film. In 1935, Jyoti Prasad Agarwal chose a historical figure of Ahom princess Joymoti as the central character for the first Assamese film. Was it enough to portray an Ahom princess as the lead character, or was it lending the historical figure a new perspective? During the stated period in Assam, the cult of Joymoti had gathered momentum. In this discourse, much emphasis was given on Joymoti sacrificing her life rather than revealing the whereabouts of her husband Prince Gadapani to the state authorities. This chapter seeks to explore how the social status of women was addressed and tackled in the film.

<p>Understanding Consumer’s preferences on attributes of cigarettes market is the first step to successful marketing strategies. The goal of this article is to explore the preferences of the smokers and to determine the way consumers perceive the importance of cigarettes attributes using conjoint analysis. Research was conducted on a sample of 416 users of cigarettes in Sudan and data were collected using a structured questionnaire. By implementing conjoint analysis, the current study investigates how consumers do tradeoff between preferences of number of attributes and the importance they attached to each of these cigarettes' attributes. The four attributes that are dealt within this study are the social status, availability, quality and price of cigarettes. Though the preferences of the various consumers vary, the results show that while price, quality and availability are important attributes, the social status is the most preferred attribute in the cigarettes industry in Sudan. The findings of the current study provide essential implications for marketers in developing future marketing strategies and for investment in this sector.<strong></strong></p>

In this paper we examine new genetics professionals' accounts of the social context of their work. We analyse accounts given in interview by an ‘elite’ group of scientists and clinicians. Drawing on the work of Gilbert and Mulkay (1984), we consider interviewees' discourse about knowledge, exploring the way in which they separate science from society through the use of what we have called the ‘micro/macro split’. We then go on to consider the reasons for such a discursive boundary, exploring the interviewees' wider discourse about expertise and responsibility for the social implications of the new genetics. We argue that interviewees' discursive boundaries allow them to appeal variously to their objectivity, to dismiss bad science and to characterize the public as ignorant. However, these discursive boundaries are permeable and flexible, and are employed to support the new genetics professionals' role in guiding education and government policy, whilst at the same time deflecting ultimate responsibility for the use of knowledge on to an abstract and amorphous society. Responsibility is flexibly embraced and abrogated. These flexible discursive boundaries thus promote rather than challenge the cognitive authority of new genetics professionals as they engage in debates about the social implications of their work. We end by challenging the replication of these discursive boundaries, noting some of the implications of such a critique for evaluation of the new genetics.

Le statut social de la femme est un critère de différenciation dans le domaine de la migration internationale féminine. Cependant la littérature reste peu prolixe sur la relation entre celui-ci et la pratique migratoire. Cette étude vise à documenter les liens entre le statut des femmes et leurs comportements migratoires dans le contexte burkinabè. Elle s’appuie sur des données secondaires, 3 880 femmes âgées de 15 ans et plus, issues de l’enquête sur l’Interaction entre Politiques Publiques, Migrations et Développement (IPPMD) au Burkina Faso en 2014 collectées auprès de 2 200 ménages. L’analyse a été à la fois descriptive (bivariée et multivariée) et explicative (régression logistique). Les résultats montrent que le statut social de la femme est négativement associé à l’émigration internationale des femmes. Les émigrées sont celles qui ont un statut faible. Elles résident en milieu rural, dans des ménages ayant une expérience migratoire et un niveau de vie faible. Le statut social de la femme explique le départ vers l’étranger chez les femmes Burkinabè et contribue à l’exacerbation des flux migratoires au Burkina Faso. Le sexe du chef de ménage et la taille du ménage constituent un autre groupe de variables qui influencent directement l’émigration des femmes mais aussi de façon indirecte via le statut de celles-ci. En conclusion, cette étude aurait contribué à une compréhension plus large sur les migrations féminines au Burkina Faso. Au regard de ces résultats, l’amélioration des conditions de vie des femmes et l’analyse de l’impact de l’émigration internationale de cellesci sur certains secteurs de développement local telles que la santé et l’éducation constituent des pistes à explorer afin de contribuer à l’autonomisation des femmes d’une part et de tirer les avantages qu’offre la migration d’autre part.   The social status of women is a criterion of differentiation in the field of international female migration. However, the literature is not very prolific on the relationship between this and the practice of migration. This study aims to document the links between the status of women and their migratory behavior in the Burkina Faso context. The study is based on secondary data, 3,880 women aged 15 and over, from the survey on the Interaction between Public Policies, Migration and Development (IPPMD) in Burkina Faso in 2014 collected from 2,200 households. The analysis was both descriptive (bivariate and multivariate) and explanatory. Results show that the social status of women is negatively associated with the international emigration of women. The emigrants are those who have a weak status. They live in rural areas, in households with migratory experience and a low standard of living. The social status of women explains the departure abroad among Burkinabè women and contributes to the exacerbation of migratory flows in Burkina Faso. The sex of the head of the household and the size of the household constitute another group of variables that directly influence the emigration of women but also indirectly via their status. In conclusion, this study would have contributed to a broader understanding of female migration in Burkina Faso. Based on these results, improving the living conditions of women and analyzing the impact of their international emigration on sectors of local development such as health and education are avenues for consideration to explore in order to contribute to the empowerment of women on the one hand and to reap the benefits of migration on the other.

The present study is meant to underline the importance of a famous work from the baroque period, Las Meninas, made by the painter Diego de Silva y Velásquez who has become a source of inspiration for future generations of artists. Numerous modern and contemporary artists have integrally or partially ”paraphrased” Velásquez’s composition by intercepting the portrait of revolutionary group for the time when it was created, extremely innovative regarding its compositional qualities and its hidden meanings which underlined the role and status of the artist in the context of a conservative society. Thus, the painting becomes the living proof of the way in which the artist manages to overcome the limitations of the social status of ordinary human beings, by portraying himself as a close friend of the royal family and by opening, through this type of representation, an important chapter in the history of portraiture.
