Objective To explore the status of undergraduates’ WeChat usage and upward social comparison, and analyze the relationship between the above two variables.Method：Totally 754 WeChat undergraduates were selected through poster recruitment from 5 colleges in Guangdong Province. They were investigated with Access Frequency to Social Networking Site Scale (AFSNSS), Upward Social Comparison Subscale of Iowa-Nwtherlands Comparison Orientation Measure (INCOM-USCS). Results：The score of overall emotional engagement(OEE) of AFSNSS and the total standard score of INCOM–USCS (TSSI-U) were (22.41±4.70) and (0±4.5), respectively. The correlation between WeChat frequency and TSSI-U was not significant.TSSI-U was significantly postively correlated with the score of OEE and other items of AFSNSS (r=0.161～0.413, P <0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that The scores of item 1,7and 8 of AFSNSS, as well as family economic status, grade ranking of academic performance (GRAP) and the purpose of WeChat use were postively correlated with TSSI-U (β=.104～.234, P<.05). Class cadre or not and origin were negatively correlated with TSSI-U (β=-.089, -.130,P<.05). Conclusion：It suggests that WeChat usage may be a related factor for undergraduates'upward social comparison.

The Relationship

This study investigated the financing needs and the financial management practices of banana farmers in Inopacan, Leyte, the relationship between financial management practices to profitability and the relationship of the various socio-demographic variables to the relevant financial management practices. The relevant financial management practices considered in this study were those found to be significantly related to profitability. Results showed that limited capital for labor and the occurrence of pests and diseases particularly bugtok, which is caused by a bacterium called Ralstonia solanacearum, were among the major problems expressed by the banana farmers that need financing. Financial management practices such as monitoring the status of loan and financial planning and budgeting were widely practiced by the farmers. Out of the 25 farmer-respondents who availed of loan, 21 of them monitored the status of their loans. More than half of them also practiced financial planning and budgeting of their income and loan. The multiple linear regression analysis revealed that monitoring financial budgets and comparing farm profitability with that of other farms or benchmarking are significantly and positively related to profitability. The logistic regression analysis showed significant relationships of household size and being able to avail credit with the relevant financial management practices. The results imply that farmers who have more household members and who have availed of credit are more likely to monitor financial budgets and/or compare profitability with other farms.

This research will analyse the use of Instagram from the perspective of uses and gratifications theory. The goal of the study was to know the motives for using Instagram and the role of individual differences in relation to the intrusion of Instagram (understood as an attachment and excessive participation in that social network). An online survey was carried out in which 401 people between 18 and 36 years old (73.1% women) residing in Spain who had an Instagram profile participated. The questionnaire contained several self-report scales to measure the motives for using Instagram, intrusion, and other individual differences measures (self-esteem, social comparison and envy). The results indicated that the main reasons for using Instagram were social interaction, creativity and documentation, and escape and self-promotion were the least relevant motives for our respondents. However, through a multiple linear regression analysis it was observed that the motives that predicted a greater intrusion of Instagram were the search for self-promotion and escape. Finally, it was observed that the orientation towards social comparison and self-esteem were associated with greater intrusion. Our study contributes to the literature on the study of social networks and, in particular, on the predictive factors that explain a more problematic use of Instagram, taking into account motivational variables and individual differences. In this way, our research clarifies the knowledge about the processes underlying the use of Instagram and introduces the concept of intrusion in uses and gratification research. Resumen La presente investigación analiza el uso de Instagram desde la perspectiva de la teoría de los usos y gratificaciones. El objetivo del estudio es conocer los motivos de uso de Instagram y el papel de las diferencias individuales en relación con la intrusión de Instagram (entendida como un apego y una participación excesiva en dicha red social). Para ello, se llevó a cabo una encuesta online en la que participaron 401 personas de entre 18 y 36 años (73,1% mujeres) residentes en España que disponían de perfil en Instagram. El cuestionario diseñado contenía varias escalas para medir los motivos de uso de Instagram, la intrusión y otras medidas de diferencias individuales (autoestima, comparación social y envidia). Los resultados indicaron que las principales razones para utilizar Instagram eran la interacción social, la creatividad y la documentación, siendo los motivos menos representados el escape y la autopromoción. Ahora bien, mediante un análisis de regresión lineal múltiple se observó que los motivos que predecían una mayor intrusión de Instagram eran la búsqueda de la autopromoción y el escape. Finalmente, se observó que la orientación a la comparación social y la autoestima se asociaban a una mayor intrusión. Nuestro estudio contribuye a la bibliografía sobre el estudio de las redes sociales y, en particular, sobre los factores predictores que explican un uso más problemático de Instagram teniendo en cuenta variables motivacionales y de diferencias individuales. De este modo, se esclarece el conocimiento sobre los procesos subyacentes al uso de Instagram y se introduce el concepto de intrusión en la investigación sobre los usos y gratificaciones de las redes sociales.

The socio-economic status and level of practice of biosecurity measures amongst catfish farmers in Delta North Agricultural Zone of Delta State were assessed. Data was collected randomly from 115 catfish farmers by oral interview and administration of structured questionnaires. Descriptive statistics and multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze data collected. Results obtained show that catfish farmers had a mean of 45 years, dominated by males with 54.8 % having secondary education and 7.8 years experience in fish farming. The coefficients for stocking density, source of fish seed, organic inclusions, workers shower, access restrictions, a record of fish disease and pathogen management were highly significant (P<0.05). It implies that these variables are important factors influencing the practice of biosecurity measures in the study area. A poor level of practice of biosecurity was observed with a large number of negative coefficients of independent variables, implying that increases in the magnitude of these variables may lead to a reduction in the level of biosecurity practice amongst catfish farmers in the area. This study also observed that the practice of biosecurity measures was not an important issue among catfish farmers. Guidelines supported by appropriate legislation is needed to enforce practice and compliance of biosecurity practice.
