This cross-sectional study was carried out to investigate the frequency of consanguineous marriage in a group of army conscripts in Ankara and the factors affecting this. Of 4153 soldiers, 387 were married. The rate of marriage between first cousins was found to be 19·1%, and the overall rate of consanguineous marriage was 24·1%. Consanguineous marriage was found to be significantly prevalent among soldiers who were born in and still living in the Eastern region; among those who lived in villages; among those whose parents as well as themselves had low educational levels; and among those whose marriages were arranged by their families. Neither the payment of bride-price nor the presence of consanguinity between parents was a significant factor for consanguineous marriage. In addition, the age of the soldier and the age at marriage were significantly lower among soldiers married to first cousins than among soldiers whose marriages were not consanguineous.

OBJECTIVES: To discover the knowledge and use of contraception amongst women in eastern Nepal and to identify reasons for patterns of use. METHOD: A cross-sectional study, using a structured survey, was completed by women admitted to the post-natal ward of Koshi Zonal Hospital in eastern Nepal. The subjects were asked questions about their knowledge and use of contraception as well as reasons for their contraceptive choices. RESULTS: The subjects showed a large discrepancy between knowledge (79%) and use (21%) of contraception. Knowledge was greater in higher socio-economic groups but use was not significantly different. Knowledge and use increased with age to a maximum use of 50% at age greater than 30 years. The main source of contraceptive knowledge was from formal school education. Injectable progesterone was the most common contraceptive used and this was said to be because of its convenience. The main reasons for non-use of contraception were subjects wanting another child and fear of side-effects. All contraceptives were purchased from private shops due to discomfort at attending recognisable contraceptive providers.. CONCLUSIONS: The levels of contraceptive awareness and use were lower than in other published Nepalese studies. This difference is associated with low educational levels in the study population. There is also an ongoing desire for larger families. There is a need for more contraceptive education that does not rely on schooling. The lack of use of government contraceptive services should also be addressed. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/jucms.v2i2.11169 Journal of Universal College of Medical Sciences (2014) Vol.2(2): 15-20

OBJECTIVE: to analyze the health vulnerabilities in adolescence associated with socioeconomic conditions, social networks, drugs and violence from the perspective of students. METHOD: cross-sectional study with 678 students between 14-15 years old in Contagem, Brazil. A self-administered questionnaire divided into modules by subject was used. Quantitative, descriptive and stratified analyses were performed by sex. RESULTS: high percentage of adolescents (40.4%) were beneficiaries of Government financial support called "Bolsa Família" and 14.6% had a job, 57.1% and 23.6% had tried alcohol and tobacco, respectively. We identified 15% of aggression and 26.7% of bullying. The majority informed they never/rarely talk to parents about the daily difficulties (64.5%) and 22% reported insomnia and/or feelings of loneliness. CONCLUSION: the results indicated that there is a need to intensify educational activities that seek to develop cognitive, affective and social skills aimed at improving the way adolescents face the vulnerabilities, in these activities, nursing has a fundamental role.

Social And Academic Success

The development of social skills (SS) at various stages of life provides the basis for social and academic success throughout life. This cross-sectional study validates and verifies the reliability of the SS checklist proposed by Goldstein et al 1983. The checklist was administered, which is composed of 6 dimensions and 50 SS questions. 671 students between 18 and 25 years of age, belonging to eight professional programs in the area of Educational Sciences, participated. The results showed that five factors explained 41.4% of the variance of the instrument. The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin KMO measure of 0.906 and Bartlett's test of sphericity were highly significant (X2= 11020.251, gl= 1225). The factor loadings of the 6 dimensions and the 50 questions ranged between 0.42 and 0.72. The reliability achieved by Cronbach's alpha was r=0.92. The proposal of percentiles will allow classifying low, moderate and high levels of SS, providing information that can be used not only by students, but also for professionals working in higher education. Consequently, it highlights the importance of developing SS not only at home, but also at school and university, since they need to be stimulated at every stage of life to achieve the proposed objectives.
