scholarly journals Perceived Stigmatization and Emotional Quotient of the Homeless Adolescents

Homeless adolescents nowadays learn how to survive alone, since no adult takes responsibility of them. They live or rather struggle to survive usually in the places near shopping malls, stations and offices, and other places which are lit up at night or in markets, in railway stations and even under bridges. With this fact, the amount of stigmatization they receive from the people who manage to insult while seeing them could be high and in that situation can be resulted to a higher stress and unfortunately could affect their emotions. This study is intended to determine the relationship between stigmatization and emotional quotient of homeless young adolescents with the aim of creating an intervention program within the results. This study used purposive sampling techniques in selecting the respondents wherein only those people without a home, and therefore typically living on the streets and belongs to age of 13-19 years old were included as respondents for a total of 70. The method used descriptive- correlational design. The results on the relationship between variables perceived stigmatization and emotional quotient of the homeless adolescent shows that there is no significant relationship. It can be inferred that the level of perceived stigmatization of the participants has no impacts to the emotional quotient of the homeless adolescents. Moreover, homeless adolescent tend to look at the brighter side and became more positive in life to accept their situations.

Tai Chi (TC) is a comparatively new intervention for peripheral vestibular hypofunction, which is often treated with vestibular rehabilitation (VR). We compared gaze stability (GZS), whole-body stability (WBS) and footfall stability (FFS) during locomotion among 26 people with vestibulopathy (VSP), randomized into two treatment arms (13 TC and 13 VR). Each intervention program was offered for 10 weeks. GZS improved more for VR than for TC, but WBS (and FFS) improved more for TC than for VR. There was a significant relationship between changes in GZS and WBS for the VR subjects (r = 0.60, p = 0.01), but not for TC subjects. There was a significant relationship between changes in WBS and FFS for both VR (r = 0.65, p < 0.01) and TC (r = 0.58, p = 0.02) groups; the relationship disappeared in the VR but not the TC group when controlling for GZS. These findings suggest that VR and TC both benefit patients with VSP but via differing mechanisms. Moreover, these data are the first to test the assumption that improving gaze control among patients with VSP perforce improves postural stability: it does not. We conclude that GZS is most improved in those who receive VR, but that TC improves WBS and FFS without improving GZS, suggesting patients with VSP can rely on non-gaze related mechanisms to improve postural control.

Nigeria is a nation blessed with intellectuals, technocrats and abundant mineral resources, yet the majority of the citizens live in abject poverty. The effect of poverty is pervasive. A poor man is a problem for society and even unto himself. He is always angry, never productive and seeks succor in militia activities. Poverty to a large extent is the root cause of insecurity in Nigeria. Thus, the study examines the relationship between poverty and insecurity in Nigeria. A descriptive method was adopted and data was collected via a survey of six hundred (600) respondents using non-probabilistic sampling techniques. We anchored our investigation on some basic propositions arising from the frustration-aggression theory. Data collected were analyzed using correlation and linear regression analysis with the aid of the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 21. The results among others showed that poverty has a positive and significant relationship with insecurity in Nigeria (r = 0.783). As predicted, the study also revealed that poverty exerts a positive and statistically significant impact on insecurity in Nigeria (r2 = 0.716). Therefore, the study recommends among other Nigerian government at all levels should care more about the welfare of the people by attending to their essential needs.

The lack of self-directed learning of students shown by students is one problem associated with self-efficacy and the learning environment. The purpose of the research is to reveal the relationship between self-efficacy and the learning environment, and self-directed learning. This study uses the correlational method and data collected from a sample of 198 students, which were found using proportional random sampling techniques. Data were collected using a self efficacy scale (24 valid items = 0.851), a learning environment scale (32 valid items = 0.830), and a self-directed learning scale (64 valid items = 0.936). Data were then analyzed using multiple regression. The results showed the correlation coefficient r = 0.535 and p = 0.00 (p> 0.05), which showed that there was a positive and significant relationship between self-efficacy and the learning environment together with self-directed learning. So it can be explained that the higher the self-efficacy and learning environment, the higher the student's self-directed learning.
