Revitalisasi Kawasan Braga sudah dilakukan selama hampir 20 tahun. Namun, masyarakat belum merasa puas dengan revitalisasi yang ada, karena seolah-olah tidak di pertimbangkan dengan matang dan kurang dilibatkannya masyarakat dalam program tersebut. Masyarakat menjadi kurang aktif dalam kegiatan revitalisasi Jalan Braga. Padahal masyarakat yang merasakan dampak dari adanya revitalisasi tersebut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara tingkat partisipasi dengan kepuasan masyarakat terhadap program revitalisasi. Metode analisis yang digunakan adalah metode analisis kuantitatif dengan teknik analisis deskriptif kuantitatif, skoring dan crosstab. Jumlah Sampel yang digunakan sebanyak 80 sampel. Hasil penelitian ditemukan bahwa tingkat partisipasi masyarakat masih tergolong rendah dengan total skor 1367. Apabila dikaitkan dengan tangga partisipasi Arnstein (1986) partisipasi masyarakat ada pada tahap “Informing”. Sedangkan kepuasan masyarakat tergolong cukup puas dengan skor1717. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian dengan analisis crosstab diketahui hasil chi square test 2(3, N = 80) = 38.285; p < 0,05 atau taraf signifikansinya 0,000 < 0,05 sehingga Ho ditolak dan H1diterima. Hal ini menyatakan ada hubungan antara partisipasi dengan kepuasan masyarakat. Sedangkan berdasarkan hasil uji kolerasi maka diketahui r(80) = 0.637; p>0.01 dan r(80) = 0.682; p>0.01 yang artinya hubungan antar variable tergolong kuat. Berdasarkan koefisien kolerasinya maka diketahui bahwa hubungan antar variabel memiliki hubungan yang positif.

AbstractThe aim of this study was to examine the sequences of the first two goals scored in soccer matches in accordance with a range of different match contexts. Data from 1506 matches played in the Portuguese Premier League during six consecutive competitive seasons (2009-10 to 2014-2015) were analysed using descriptive statistics and the chi-square test in order to verify the association between variables and a Cox regression analysis was used to predict the time the second goal was scored in function of the time of the first goal scored in the match and the scoreline. The results revealed a higher frequency of the second goals being scored in the second half of a match (58%) and in the last 5 min periods of each half. A positive association was found for home teams and score-doubling goals (58%), as well as for away teams and score-equalizing goals (56%). For home and away teams the score-doubling goal of a match was strongly and positively associated with a win outcome for home (93%) and away teams (92%), while the score-equalizing goals were associated with a draw (home and away teams: 44%) and loss outcome (home: 33% and away teams: 32%). Finally, the Cox model showed that if the first goal was scored in the second half of the match, the probability of the second goal being scored was three times higher compared to the first half.

Objective This study investigated the effect of the number of close friends (within and outside of social housing neighbourhoods) on the emotional well-being of men and women in social housing neighbourhoods in China. Methods Data (n = 535) were collected in 13 social housing neighbourhoods in Guangzhou from September to December 2013 using the random sample method. The t-test, chi-square test, and linear regression analysis were used to analyse the factors influencing residents’ emotional well-being. Results Having a greater number of close friends living within the social housing neighbourhood had a significantly positive association with the respondents’ emotional well-being (regression coefficient = 0.473). The number of close friends living in nearby neighbourhoods was only positively related to women’s emotional well-being (coefficient = 0.433). Conclusions These results highlight the importance of friendship for residents’ emotional well-being. Especially for women, friendship outside the social housing neighbourhood is essential for good mental health. This conclusion is based on analysis of cross-sectional data, and reflects the directionality of social associations. The mental health of the poor warrants greater attention in China.

All the counsellors in the selected ICTCs were invited to take part in the study. The interview of the counsellors was completed by maximum of 3 visits. A pretested, structured questionnaire with five point likert scale for satisfaction was used. Chi square test was applied. P value of<0.05 was significant.Results: In 20 ICTCs, a total of 32 counsellors participated in the study. Among 32 counsellors, 14 (43.8%) were males and 18 (56.2%) were females. Majority (93.7%) of counsellors said that refresher counselling training was very useful. Most of the counsellors, 22 (68.7%) suggested that strengthening the collaboration with non-government organizations would increase the number of direct walk-in clients. Majority of the counsellors, 26 (81.2%) said that they were satisfied with the job. However, 19 (59.3) counsellors said that they would change the profession if given a choice.Conclusions: Periodical salary revisions and further career growth in counselling domain, could improve the job satisfaction and would help the counsellors retain the job. This would cut down the additional expenses of the programme for imparting induction training often-times.

Background: There was a strong correlation between increase in hypertension and changing lifestyle factors. The problem which lies with the hypertension is that it cannot be cured completely. And its management requires lifelong medication with some life-style modifications. Decreased physical activities coupled with increased mental tension are important contributors of hypertension. They are usually seen amongst employees of the profession where working is typically sedentary.  The main objectives were to study on prevalence of hypertension and risk factors among Government Gazetted officers of Maharashtra, India.Methods: A cross sectional study was carried among gazetted officers working in various departments of state Government for a period of one year in Solapur district. 355 Gazetted Government officers of class I & class II cadre were studied. Blood pressure was measured with a standard mercury sphygmomanometer. Chi-square test was applied to assess risk factors.Results: In present study, the prevalence of hypertension among Gazetted officers was observed 20.28%. There was significant positive association was found between age and prevalence of hypertension. And also it was found significantly higher in men than women. The association between education and hypertension found to be statistically significant (P<0.001), while there was no association between socioeconomic status and hypertension was found (P=0.33). Prevalence of hypertension was noted higher at every level of BMI. Prevalence of hypertension was significantly higher in smokers, alcoholic and had significant association (P<0.05).Conclusions: We conclude that, because of high prevalence of hypertension in Gazetted officers, periodically they should be screened for the same.
