Background: Pesticides is poison and dangerous materials. It can cause negative effects to human health directly or indirectly. Blood cholinesterase enzyme analysis is one of the methods to indicate that someone is poisons by pesticide. Purpose: This research is a descriptive study. The aim of this study is to illustrate the cholinesterase levels in the farmer’s blood especially the farmers in Batunya village. Methods: The population in this research was 30 farmers who are the members of Groups Tani Mekar Nadi. The sampling method that used in this research was saturation sampling. Data collection used the questionnaire. The test-mateChE cholinesterase test system (model 400) is the device that used to check the level of cholinesterase in the farmers’ blood. Result: The result show that 22 peoples (73,3%) cholinesterase level was abnormal. In the other hand, 8 of the farmer (26,7%) has normal level of cholinesterase. Conclusion: From the result it can be concluded that it’s still important to monitor the level of cholinesterase in farmers’ blood to increase awareness towards the danger of pesticide, always use self-protection device, and conducting a good pesticide management.Keywords: pesticide, cholinesterase, poisoned

Background and aims: Color blindness is a disease that remains undiagnosed in some cases. The diagnosis of the disease during schooling is necessary to take the required measures for the future life of adolescents. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of color blindness among the students of secondary schools in Shahrekord. Methods: In this descriptive study, 4074 students of secondary schools across Shahrekord were included by the cluster sampling method. Ishihara color blindness test plate was used to diagnose color blindness. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (mean and percentage) by SPSS 18. Results: In general, 362 (88.8%) patients had color blindness. Out of 2052 male students and 2022 female ones, 343 (16.71%) and 19 (0.93%) cases were diagnosed with color blindness, respectively. In both genders, most students had deuteranopia or deuteranomalia, while other types of color blindness, including tritanomaly, were not detected in the students. Conclusion: The results of this study showed that the number of color blind people in the studied region was higher compared to the results of studies in the other regions of Iran.

Abstract Environment issues and their relationship with man have encouraged discussions and actions to prevent negative effects on the environment. To have effective programs that encourage more sustainable actions in Construction, it is necessary to know what people think and know about sustainability, the meanings and socially shared ideas. This research was developed within an interdisciplinary approach involving social psychology and civil engineering and aims to identify the social representations of college students of engineering and humanities on sustainability. It is a descriptive study that used an electronic questionnaire and EVOC for data analysis. The results point to a social representation of sustainability associated with the environmental dimension: environment, environmental, and nature. The other two dimensions of the triple bottom line, economic and social, appear superficially as peripheral representations.

Abstract: Dental anxiety is the cause of psychological disorders such as depression, anxiety, and discomfort for dental care, especially in dental fillings. Dental anxiety in dental fillings is an obstacle that can lead to negative effects on patients, especially in pediatric patients. This study was conducted to obtain patients’ anxiety before dental fillings. This was a descriptive study with a total sampling method. Total sample of 50 pediatric patients aged 6-12 years consisted of 28 girls and 22 boys. Data were collected by using questionnaires Dental Anxiety Scale (DAS) before performing the dental fillings. The results showed that there were 17 girls (60.69%) and 6 males (27.27%) that experienced severe anxiety. Most severe anxiety was experienced by youngest aged children - the youngest age was 6 years.Keywords: children anxiety, dental fillingsAbstrak: Kecemasan dental adalah penyebab dari gejala gangguan psikologis seperti depresi, ketakutan, dan perasaan tidak nyaman terhadap perawatan gigi terutama dalam penambalan gigi.

This aims to review and analyze the Jordanian experiment in the developmental regional planning field within the decentralized managerial methods, which is considered one of the primary basic provisions for applying and success of this kind of planning. The study shoed that Jordan has passed important steps in the way for implanting the decentralized administration, but these steps are still not enough to established the effective and active regional planning. The study reveled that there are many problems facing the decentralized regional planning in Jordan, despite of the clear goals that this planning is trying to achieve. These problems have resulted from the existing relationship between the decentralized administration process’ dimensions from one side, and between its levels which ranged from weak to medium decentralization from the other side, In spite of the official trends aiming at applying more of the decentralized administrative policies, still high portion of these procedures are theoretical, did not yet find a way to reality. Because any progress or success at the level of applying the decentralized administrative policies doubtless means greater effectiveness and influence on the development regional planning in life of the residents in the kingdom’s different regions. So, it is important to go a head in applying more steps and decentralized administrative procedures, gradually and continuously to guarantee the control over any negative effects that might result from Appling this kind of systems.   © 2018 JASET, International Scholars and Researchers Association

Importance Sampling Technique

An improved importance sampling method with layer simulation optimization is presented in this paper. Through the solution sequence of the components’ optimum biased factors according to their importance degree to system reliability, the presented technique can further accelerate the convergence speed of the Monte-Carlo simulation. The idea is that the multivariate distribution’ optimization of components in power system is transferred to many steps’ optimization based on importance sampling method with different optimum biased factors. The practice is that the components are layered according to their importance degree to the system reliability before the Monte-Carlo simulation, the more forward, the more important, and the optimum biased factors of components in the latest layer is searched while the importance sampling is carried out until the demanded accuracy is reached. The validity of the presented is verified using the IEEE-RTS79 test system.

The structure of the motives invoked by people for forgiveness and for unforgiveness was assessed, and the relationships between these motives and demographic characteristics, conceptualizations of forgiveness, forgivingness, personality and culture were examined. Forgiveness appeared to be fueled mainly by three largely independent kinds of motives: having recovered sympathy for a repentant offender, applying a moral principle and preserving a meaningful relationship. Forgiveness may sometimes, however, amount to exploiting the offense for dominating or for challenging the offender as well as others. Unforgiveness appeared to be fueled mainly by persistent anger and indignation, sometimes associated with the desire for self-affirmation and self-protection, and, for a few participants, it was the only response to outgroup members. For each kind of invoked motive a meaningful pattern of relationships with the other measurements, including culture, was found.
