The article examines the relationship between the development of multicultural values in students and various factors, including the level of self-realization, learning success, the nature of interests, social activism. The study was conducted on 160 students of Baku State University. In the study, experimental and control groups were selected and implemented in two phases. During the research, modern teaching methods and other techniques were used to develop multicultural values. A comparative analysis of the first and second stages showed that the level of self-realization with multicultural values, the nature of interests, the increase in learning success, and the relationship with social activism are two-way. That is, raising the level of self-realization, increasing the activity of demands in public affairs, as well as the formation of new interests, increasing the success of training is one of the main conditions for the development of multicultural values. The study showed that in the experimental group there is a correlation between learning achievements, self-realization and social activity and multicultural values (r = 0.0391, p = 0.014; r = 6.136, p = 0.044; r = 4.132, p = 0.048). The study concludes that the development of multicultural values can be achieved through the achievement of the highest results, capacity building and social activism.

The purpose of the research is studying the efficacy of Eprimek (Eprinomectin) against gastrointestinal nematodes in sheep.Materials and methods. A commercial experiment to study the antiparasitic efficacy of Eprimek was carried out in June 2020 on 300 lambs of the North Caucasian breed in a private flock of Filimonovskaya Village, Izobilnensky District, the Stavropol Territory, which were divided into two groups. The experimental group of lambs (290 animals) was injected Eprimek subcutaneously at the earset at a dose of 1 ml/50 kg of live weight (10 mg of Eprinomectin in 1 ml), and 10 lambs were not treated; they were used as control. We collected feces from the lambs of the experimental and control groups before administration of the drugs and after 15 and 30 days. Fecal samples were examined by the flotation technique with a saturated solution of ammonium nitrate with counting nematode eggs in 1 g of feces. The results were processed statistically.Results and discussion. Eprimek showed a decrease in the number of excreted helminth eggs from 225.1±28.2 to 4.1±2.3 in production environment at a dose of 1 ml/50 kg of live weight, according to coprological studies on the 15th day after treatment in the experimental group of lambs. The efficacy was 98.2%, and 70% of the animals were free from the infection. The intensity of infection of the control lambs by gastrointestinal nematodes was 131–151 eggs per 1 g of feces at 100% prevalence.

In Bangladesh some researchers have done several studies to find the correlation of simple diffuse goiter with arsenic level but no one conducted any study to find the differences of urinary iodine, urinary arsenic, radioiodine uptake, the thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and free thyroxin (FT4) levels between goitrous and non goitrous. That is why, in this research an attempt has been made to compare the urinary iodine, urinary arsenic, radioiodine uptake, TSH and FT4 levels between experimental group with simple diffuse goiter and healthy control group. In this study another purpose has also been made to find the associations between different pairs of variables for both experimental and control group. In this study we have tried to find the impacts of arsenic level on simple diffuse goiter. This is a case-control analytical study. The study is carried out in the Institute of Nuclear Medicine and Ultrasound, in collaboration with the thyroid out patient department of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University. A total of eighty five (85) subjects are included in the study. Among the 85 subjects, a sample of forty five is considered for experimental group with simple diffuse goiter and another sample of forty is considered for healthy control group without any thyroid disease. From the experimental results it has been found that, the arsenic levels, FT4 and radioiodine uptake levels at 2 hours between the experimental and control groups are significantly different but the urinary iodine levels, TSH levels and radioiodine uptake levels at 24 hours between the experimental and control groups are not statistically different. From the experimental results it has also been found that there is significant differentiation between experimental and controls groups in respect of association between different pairs of variables. In this study, another significant finding is that iodine deficiency is not only the factor of causing simple diffuse goiter, but arsenic level is also one of the most important factor of causing simple diffuse goiter. Key words: Iodine deficiency, Simple diffuse goiter, Urinary arsenic, Statistical analysis, Association, Experimental and Control groups  DOI = 10.3329/dujps.v7i1.1224 Dhaka Univ. J. Pharm.

Researchers recently have suggested that behaviorally disordered students exhibit deficits in test-taking skills, the ability to use test cues to maximize test scores. These deficits may account partially for the low achievement scores commonly associated with this population. The present investigation was intended to determine whether behaviorally disordered students could be trained to improve test-taking skills relevant to content area tests. First, 34 behaviorally disordered adolescents were administered Slakter, Koehler, and Hampton's (1969) test of test-taking skills, matched for grade and pretest score, and assigned at random to experimental and control groups. Experimental group students were provided with training in specific test-taking skills relevant to content area, teacher-made tests, over a 5-day period while control students received their regularly scheduled instruction. After the training period, a posttest was administered. A two-way (group by test) analysis of variance indicated that experimental condition students scored significantly and substantially (nearly 50%) higher than untrained control students. Implications for research and training are discussed.

This study aims to investigate the possible effects of peripheral learning on elementary EFL learners’ grammar improvement: the case of prepositions of time and place. Two elementary classes were selected as experimental and control groups. Before beginning the treatment, a grammar test was administered to both the groups as a pre-test. Then, as treatment, the experimental group was exposed to realia, pictures, posters and texts, while the control group was not. After term-long treatment of 10 weeks, the two groups received the same grammar test as post-test. The results of t-test showed that the experimental group improved their grammar ability, i.e., knowledge of prepositions of time and place more than their friends in the control group. The finding of the study may open an optional path for teachers to include some peripheral materials in their teaching environment to further invest on unconscious learning abilities of the students.   Keywords: Peripheral learning, reposition of time, prepositions of place, grammar.
