Context: Dearth of normative data for bilateral shoulder rotation flexibility (BSRF) for Nigerians is currently a limitation in screening of athletes and patient management. Aims: This study was designed to generate normative values for BSRF among healthy Nigerians of different age groups using the shoulder rotation test (SRT). Settings and Design: A four-stage sampling technique was used in recruiting 4000 (male [Formula: see text] 2048; female [Formula: see text] 1952) participants into this cross-sectional descriptive survey. Methods and Material: Participants aged between 5 and 64 years were grouped into 12 age strata. Participants' BSRF was measured using the Acuflex III flexibility tester. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics of mean, standard deviation and percentiles. Results: Participants' mean age was 24.22 [Formula: see text] 14.65 years. Participants’ BSRF increased with age thus indicating reduced flexibility with age. In the twelve age groups of 5–9, 10–14, 15–19, 20–24, 25–29, 30–34, 35–39, 40–44, 45–49, 50–54, 55–59 and 60–64, the BSRF for the male participants were 26.29 [Formula: see text] 12.64cm, 37.95 [Formula: see text] 16.15cm, 54.33 [Formula: see text] 21.08cm, 58.21 [Formula: see text] 23.01cm, 65.50 [Formula: see text] 22.67cm, 74.75 [Formula: see text] 17.06cm, 74.42 [Formula: see text] 17.06cm, 77.97 [Formula: see text] 16.38cm, 81.26 [Formula: see text] 14.88cm, 82.77 [Formula: see text] 14.42cm, 86.00 [Formula: see text] 14.82cm and 93.25 [Formula: see text] 12.73cm respectively. Those for female participants were 25.34 [Formula: see text] 12.28cm, 41.12 [Formula: see text] 15.48cm, 50.46 [Formula: see text] 18.60cm, 49.19 [Formula: see text] 19.75cm, 58.26 [Formula: see text] 17.16cm, 62.40 [Formula: see text] 16.72cm, 67.32 [Formula: see text] 18.50cm, 69.37 [Formula: see text] 17.14cm, 71.80 [Formula: see text] 15.18cm, 75.21 [Formula: see text] 15.57cm, 73.55 [Formula: see text] 14.09cm and 81.21 [Formula: see text] 10.89cm respectively. Males generally had higher scores (lesser flexibility) than females across the twelve age groups except for the 10–14 year age. The percentiles of the BSRF scores for the participants showed a steady increase in BSRF scores from age 5–9years to 60–64years. Conclusion: This study generated population-based normative values according to age and gender for BSRF using the SRT for healthy Nigerians.

Abstract Information and knowledge are the foremost tools in fighting the scourge of HIV/AIDS. Previous studies have focused more on HIV/AIDS and Nigerian undergraduates’ attitudes, beliefs and protective practices than how information factors influence their knowledge of the pandemic. This study, therefore, investigated the influence of access to HIV/AIDS information on its knowledge among undergraduates of federal universities in Nigeria. The study adopted the descriptive survey research design, with a combination of the purposive, proportionate and stratified random sampling technique used to select 1,679 undergraduates from five universities across five geopolitical zones of Nigeria. Questionnaire was the instrument used for collecting data, which were analyzed using Pearson’s product moment correlation and multiple regression. The most accessible sources of HIV/AIDS information among undergraduates were television (94.5 %), radio (93.0 %) and the Internet/ICT centers (90.5 %). The types of HIV/AIDS information frequently assessed were information on how to refuse sex (Mean=3.15), how to be faithful to one partner (Mean=3.12), sharing of sharp objects (Mean=3.12), blood transfusion (Mean=3.11), unprotected sexual intercourse (Mean=3.10) and how to use condoms correctly (Mean=3.09). Access to HIV/AIDS information (r=0.15) resulted in positive significant relationships with HIV/AIDS knowledge, thus access to HIV/AIDS information has a positive influence on the promotion of knowledge of HIV/AIDS among undergraduates. The level of study was also a predictor of HIV/AIDS knowledge, which was not the case for factors of age, discipline, gender, marital status, tribe and religion. The AIDS service organizations and program developers should come up with strategies that would strengthen and improve the content, accuracy and ease of understanding of HIV/AIDS information that students have access to in order to facilitate its use.

Research methodology: This study will also look at the five traits found in the big five personalities which tend to play a role in the hard adventure traveler. This research is a replication study of Kristin Scott and John C. Mowen with a quantitative approach involving 1,558 subjects with a purposive sampling technique. Big five personality was measured using the big five infentory scale, while the hard adventure type would be measured using a scale from Scott & Mowen. Data analysis of this study using multiple regression techniques. Results: The results showed that there is a role of big five personalities that is simultaneous towards traveler's hard adventure type of 7,6%, whereas partially openness, extraversion, and neuroticism trait had a role towards the type of hard adventure, where openness trait had the biggest role towards hard adventure type. Limitations: Based on the magnitude of the role generated in this study, there are still other factors that can influence traveler's decision making to choose the traveling type, so that these other factors are expected to explore more. Contribution: This research can be a reference in the development of tourist attraction marketing by taking into account visitors' personality types.
