Abstract Background A lower respiratory tract infection caused by novel coronavirus termed as Corona Virus Disease (COVID-19) was first identified in China and subsequently took the form of pandemic. Studies on disease outbreak in the past and recent COVID-19 outbreak have demonstrated increased psychological distress and adverse impacts on mental health and psychological wellbeing of people. However, the impact of COVID-19 on psychological wellbeing of people in Nepal hasn't been studied adequately. So, this paper aims to report the findings from a social media survey on psychological impacts of COVID-19 in Nepal. Methods Data were collected through social media from 2082 Nepalese respondents between 23rd April, 2020 and 3rd May, 2020. A total of 2014 respondents who were currently residing in Nepal were included in the analysis. Results The study suggested that half of the respondents suffered from at least one symptom of psychological distress whereas 32% suffered from two or more symptoms of psychological distress such as restlessness, fearfulness, anxiety and worry and sadness in the past 2 weeks preceding the survey date. The findings further suggested that respondents having lower family income, residing in rented room, and participants from province 2 were more likely to suffer from both single and multiple symptoms of psychological distress. Conclusion The study has shown high prevalence of psychological distress amongst the Nepalese respondents following COVID-19 outbreak. Appropriate mental health and psychosocial support response needs to be instituted to adequately respond to psychological impacts of the epidemic.

Aim. The aim of this thesis is to present the impact of students exclusion (including SPEs) on their virtual behaviour in social media. Students with no special educational needs and those with SEN were taken into account. The relationship between exclusion of SPE and digitisation exclusion will be indicated . In addition, social exclusion in the family area was included. Methods: The analysis was based on statistical methods, such as: range, standard deviation, variance. Surveys were used. They were conducted on the Internet through the Facebook social portal on a national and global scale. Results: Respondents from around the world feel more excluded by the SPE than respondents in Poland. In contrast, respondents from the SPE use fewer social networking sites than in groups of computer players, both in Poland and worldwide. Conclusions: In Poland, SPE is not a barrier to communication with peers for most respondents, unlike global respondents. Respondents from the SPE spend less time on social portals because it absorbs their time devoted to learning, which can be an indicator of digital exclusion. Cognitive value: The originality of the research is to focus on introducing the global and Polish scale of the problem excluding students from SPE from the social media, which was calculated by the author’s method based on the indicator digital exclusion.

The country's economy has declined drastically, moreover the family economy has become uncertain and the body of the group has a low standard of living. The family income is getting smaller while the family expenses still have to be paid. Each family must think hard to survive in the uncertainty of the end of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Quality Relationships

In family contexts, individuals are embedded in networks of relationships. Social Network Analysis (SNA) provides a unique framework to investigate family relationships as interrelated networks above and beyond dyadic familial relationships. In the current paper, we used the notion of triadic closure to investigate how various configurations of family networks, classified by their relationship ties, differ in predicting adolescents’ experiences of loneliness. We classified different types of network structures based on whether all three family members (i.e., child, mother, father) shared high quality relationships with one another (closed) or whether one or more low quality ties existed in the family triad (open). Results indicated that, compared to adolescents in families containing one or more poor-quality ties, adolescents in families containing all high-quality relational ties experienced lower levels of loneliness, above and beyond the impact of gender, parents’ education and mental health, and family income. Simply put, adolescents’ experiences of loneliness is not tied to the number of high quality relationships they experience within the family, rather is dependent on the presence of high quality relationships among all family ties. With the introduction of one low-quality relationship within a family triad, additional low-quality relationships appear to make little difference. In line with family systems theory, our examination of the family as a whole, rather than as a summative combination of smaller relationships, indicates that a closed family structure is important for protecting adolescents against experiences of loneliness.

Objective: To evaluate the impact of otolaryngology programs’ social media on residency candidates in the 2020 to 2021 application cycle. Methods: An anonymous survey was distributed via Otomatch, Headmirror, and word of mouth to otolaryngology residency applicants in the 2021 Match. Survey items included demographics, social media usage, and impact of programs’ social media on applicant perception and ranking. Descriptive statistics were performed, and responses based on demographic variables were compared using Fisher’s exact and Mann-Whitney U tests. Results: Of 64 included respondents, nearly all (61/64, 95%) used Facebook, Instagram, and/or Twitter for personal and/or professional purposes. Applicants (59/64, 92%) most commonly researched otolaryngology residency programs on Instagram (55/59, 93%) and Twitter (36/59, 61%), with younger ( P = .023) and female ( P = .043) applicants being more likely to engage with programs on Instagram. Program accounts were most helpful in showcasing program culture (50/59, 85%) and highlighting its location (34/59, 58%). Nearly one third (19/59, 32%) reported that social media impacted their rank list. Age, gender, reapplication, home program status, or time taken off before and/or during medical school did not significantly influence social media’s usefulness in the application cycle. Conclusion: Social media platforms like Instagram and Twitter are frequently used by applicants to assess otolaryngology residency programs. Programs’ social media accounts effectively demonstrate program culture and affect applicants’ rank lists. As social media usage continues to rise in the medical community, these findings can help otolaryngology residency programs craft a beneficial online presence that aids in recruitment, networking, and education.

The Impact

This paper investigates two aspects of the paid employment relationship between female and male partners aged 23. It is argued that in order to understand women's position in the home and the labour market it is necessary to consider employment relationships in the context of the household. The impact of children on women's labour force participation is already well known and in this paper we show that marriage also has an independent effect on hours worked. The second aspect of the paper concerns the relative financial contribution of each partner to the family income from their labour market earnings. It is recognised that power and equality within the home are to some extent derived from the relative contribution of partners to the family income. It is shown that women are economically dependent on men even in the early stages of their partnership before children and that this dependence is greater among women with children.

The Impact

The aim of this research is to study the impact of demographic and socioeconomic situation on the integration of families living in the margins of the cities of Beni Mellal and Fquih Ben Salah. The problem of the study was identified in the following question: How does the demographic and socioeconomic situation of the families settled by the margins of Beni Mellal and Fquih Ben Salah affect their level of integration? In order to achieve the objectives of the study and to answer the problem, two methods were adopted comparative methodology and statistical analysis, and the withdrawal of a simple random sample of households; identified in 321 families in Beni Mellal and 231 families in the city of Fquih Ben Saleh, and use the form as a tool for the study. The results of the study showed that most of the heads of households with margins in Beni Mellal and Fuih Ben Saleh are not educated, where in some marginal residential communities exceeded 50%, the results also showed the increase in the number of members of the same family (the number of members of the family sometimes 17 people) and the weak monthly income which Generally less than 1000 Moroccan dirhams (100 US dollars). The results also showed that this situation has negatively affected the integration of these families, especially at the level of connection to the drinking water and electricity network (where the proportion of households without drinking water exceeded 60%, and without electricity 50%) and construction documents such as designs and licenses (in some residential communities) There is not a single dwelling available on these documents), in addition to the low involvement of families in local environmental programs. The study recommended the need to generalize the fight against illiteracy among adults and motivate them to engage in programs monitored by the Moroccan Agency for Combating Illiteracy and Informal Education, and encourage investment in activities related to agriculture and livestock raising in order to raise family income and finally rehabilitate the margins of the two cities with environmental services and strengthen the role of civil society and facilitate administrative procedures Related to construction and thus facilitate the acceleration of family integration.
