The Relationship

Retaining faculty at a university depends on a range of factors that have implications on the commitment of the faculty to that institution. In this study, one hundred and twenty faculty members were selected from a public university in Ghana to assess the relationship that exists between retention and commitment of faculty members. This quantitative study used cross-sectional design and convenience sampling techniques to gather data using subjects from the faculty of a university with population of 272. Results from this study disclosed that generally the commitment of the faculty members to their university was high. There was a positive and significant relationship between the level of organizational commitment and compensation received by the members of faculty but with a low effect size. The findings also revealed that the female faculty members were more satisfied with their compensation than their male counterparts and their normative commitment was also higher.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the factors which determine the adoption of best HR practices in Chinese small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Design/methodology/approach – Regression analysis was utilized to analyse survey data obtained from 345 enterprises operating across China in a wide range of industrial sectors. Findings – Enterprises with greater resources in terms of their size, their relationships with external organizations, their cooperation with foreign partners and the human capital of their CEO were found to be more likely to adopt best HR practices. Contrary to the findings of the existing literature no relationship was found of a relationship between family ownership and the use of best HR practices. Research limitations/implications – The cross-sectional design is an obvious limitation of the study. Other limitations relate to the generalizability of the study findings outside the context in which the research was undertaken, and the use of convenience sampling. Practical implications – Enterprises should consider building strategic relationships with external organizations and developing cooperation with foreign partners as a way of leveraging human resource expertise at a limited cost. Originality/value – This is the first study to examine how differences in the resource endowments of Chinese SMEs influence their adoption of best HR practices.

The Relationship

This study aims to investigate the relationships between organizational cultures, spirit at work, and organization based self-esteem among academicians, and whether organization based self-esteem mediates the relationship between organizational culture and spirit at work. A cross-sectional design was employed, and data were collected through a questionnaire-based survey. Based on the convenience sampling, 417 academicians answered the questionnaire in public and private universities located in Turkey. To analyze the data descriptive statistics, Pearson coefficient, simple and multiple regression analyses were conducted. Feminine organizational culture has more positive contribution on experiencing spirit at work than masculine organizational culture. Moreover, organization based self-esteem does not mediate the relationship between types of organizational culture and spirit at work. Results suggest that organizations hoping to enhance their employee‟s spirit at work could focalize creating an organizational environment that fosters employee spirit at work. The originality of this paper is that it creates awareness and emphasizes potential contributors that foster an individual‟s experience of spirit at work.

Children with disabilities often experience physical violence committed by caregivers. This study aims to identify the relationship between stress in caring for physical violence committed against children with disabilities. The study used a cross-sectional design to examine 76 parents with children with disabilities selected by convenience sampling techniques. Of the 76 participants, 35 (46.1%) parents physically abused children with disabilities. The most common type of violence is hitting (74.3%). Parenting stress may be felt by parents because there is a relationship between caregiving stress with physical violence (Z= -2.85; p-value= 0.004). Lack of access to information related to adaptive care makes parents in Indonesia still consider physical violence, such as hitting children, is a natural thing. The research concludes that there is a relationship between parental stress and physical violence against children with disabilities. Health workers are expected to be able to teach parents how to improve coping mechanisms to reduce parenting stress so that parenting behavior becomes adaptive.[Anak difabel sering mengalami kekerasan fisik yang dilakukan oleh pengasuh. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi hubungan antara stres dalam pengasuhan dengan kekerasan fisik yang dilakukan terhadap anakdifabel. Penelitian menggunakan desain cross-sectional untuk meneliti 76 orang tua dengan anak difabel yang dipilih dengan teknik convenience sampling. Dari 76 partisipan, 35 (46,1%) orang tua melakukan kekerasan fisik terhadap anak difabel. Jenis kekerasan yang paling banyak dilakukan adalah memukul (74,3%). Stres pengasuhan mungkin dirasakan oleh orang tua karena terdapat hubungan antara stres pengasuhan dengan kekerasan fisik (Z=-2,85; p-value = 0.004). Kurangnya akses informasi terkait pengasuhan yang adaptif menyebabkan orang tua di Indonesia masih menganggap kekerasan fisik seperti memukul anak merupakan hal yang wajar. Penelitian menyimpulkan bahwa terdapat hubungan antara stres pengasuhan dengan kekerasan fisik terhadap anak difabel. Tenaga kesehatan diharapkan dapat mengajarkan orang tua dalam meningkatkan mekanisme koping untuk menurunkan stres pengasuhan sehingga perilaku pengasuhan menjadi adaptif.]

ABSTRACTPreschool-age and school-age are phases that have different parenting challenges, which can trigger parenting stress on mothers. This study aimed to examine the parenting stress differences between mothers of preschoolers and mothers of school-aged children. This research used a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. Parenting stress is measured through the Parental Stress Scale (PSS) instrument. This study involved 249 respondents who were selected through convenience sampling methods. Analysis of the different tests with the Mann Withney technique showed that there were significant differences in parenting stress from the two groups. Mothers of school-aged children are found to experience higher parenting stress than mothers of preschool-aged children. Further studies involving culture-related variables and longitudinal design are suggested.  ABSTRAKUsia prasekolah dan usia sekolah dasar merupakan fase yang memiliki tantangan pengasuhan yang berbeda, yang dapat memicu stres pengasuhan pada Ibu. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat perbedaan stres pengasuhan pada Ibu yang mengasuh anak usia prasekolah dan usia sekolah dasar. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan desain cross sectional. Stres pengasuhan diukur melalui instrument Parental Stres Scale (PSS). Penelitian ini melibatkan 249 responden yang dipilih melalui metode convenience sampling. Analisis uji beda dengan teknik Mann Withney menunjukkan bahwa ada perbedaan stres pengasuhan yang signifikan dari dua kelompok tersebut. Ibu yang mengasuh anak usia sekolah ditemukan mengalami stres pengasuhan yang lebih tinggi daripada ibu yang mengasuh anak usia prasekolah. Untuk pengembangan studi, pelibatan variabel yang terkait dengan budaya dan penggunaan desain longitudinal disarankan.

Background: Although substance misuse pattern is of growing worldwide concern, European countries have not been left out as they are uniquely going through a dynamic phase of drug misuse pattern. It is perhaps appalling, that little or no attention has been given to university students in aspects of drug policy and adoption of potential interventions necessary to curb this act. Consequently, this study aims to study the prevalence of substance misuse among students at a post-92 university in London. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional design using a convenience sampling technique was used. A sample of 150 students were required for the study. The recruitment process involved using a selfadministered questionnaire which was disseminated via email, classrooms and in the library. Results: The findings showed that majority of respondents were young people within the age group of 18-24 years and a higher proportion of respondents were female students. This study reveals the prevalence of substance use among students being 36 (24%), of the sample respondents who have taken drugs for non-medical purposes at least once. Cannabis and Cocaine remained the most commonly abused drugs in the university which is consistent with national evidence in the (United Kingdom) UK. Conclusion: It is therefore recommended that public health interventions targeted towards preventing substance misuse trends among students should be designed to raise awareness on its harmful implications thereby reducing its prevalence in younger generations.

Background and Aim. Currently two forms of levothyroxine are presented in pharmaceutical market of Armenia: Euthyrox and L-thyroxine. Local physicians have a choice of two different levothyroxine preparations, each of them with different dosage from 25 to 150mg. Oral levothyroxine (LT4) is the standard therapy for patients with hypothyroidism. The purpose of this report is to describe the adverse outcomes reported by endocrinologists, the frequent prescribers of levothyroxine, practicing in Armenia and to compare the rate of adverse reactions with data from different international research reports. Materials and methods. A Pharmacovigilance questionnaire was developed based on the literature reports to assess potential adverse events attributable to the use of levothyroxine products. Statistical Analysis Results were collected, interpreted and presented as percentages. Results. The study was with a cross-sectional design conducted in medical centers of Armenia using convenience sampling. The respondent parents of patients were selected using simple random sampling. Of the total 56 survey responses received, the majority 35 [63%]) reported no adverse events. The adverse effects were due to new or unexpected symptoms in 2 (25%), a TSH change alone in 1 (12%), or both in 6 (75%). Most the symptoms (5/8 [65%]) were consistent with thyrotoxicosis, arrhythmias were documented in three cases, while 35% (3/8) of cases had symptoms typical of hypothyroidism. Conclusions. Clinicians prescribing Euthyrox and L-thyroxine should be reminded that these products are from different manufacturers and patients/physicians should be made aware of all possible adverse reactions results, which could be different for these two products.
