The objective of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of a counseling program in modifying the negativebehavior of male students aged 11-15 years. The researcher used the semi-empirical approach with twomeasurements, pre and posttest measurements. A purposive sample of 52 students was selected and divided into twogroups, experimental and control groups. Each group comprised a number of 26 male students respectively. Theresearcher developed the behavioral modification and counseling program questionnaire.The study showed that there were statistically significant differences in reducing the level of negative behavior in theexperimental group attributed to the counseling program. The experimental group mean reached a score of 87.08 andthe control group’s mean was 227. The results also indicated that the experimental group has a statisticallysignificant difference for the minimum permissible level of negative behavior (110), where the mean for negativebehavior reached 87.08, a decrease of 22.92. The effect of the independent factor on the dependent factor wassignificant, given that the d-value was 2.07, which is greater than the value 0.8. The study recommended for thegroup counseling program to be employed and circulated due to its positive results in modifying behavior.

The purpose of the study was to investigate the impact of modifying the dimensions of junior volleyball court and the related equipment on the skill performance in volleyball by applying the concept of human engineering ergonomics. A purposive sample of 40 male students at Al-Frair basic school was selected. The sample was divided into two groups: experimental group (20) and control group (20). The two groups implemented the suggested learning program with the experimental used the modified volleyball playground, while the control group used ordinary volleyball playground. The learning program lasted 8 weeks /3 learning sessions per week and that each learning unit lasted 45 minutes. The results showed that the performance of the experimental group was enhanced significantly compared to the control group in the post test, suggesting the impact of ergonomics in modifying the volleyball play-ground dimensions and the related equipment. The researchers recommend utilizing the modified playground as it reflects significant related skill performance for (8-10) years aged students and to apply the concept of ergonomics in the different PE sciences to modify both dimensions and the related equipment to go with the relevant age group.

Abstract Background This study assessed the safety and efficacy of intrathecal injection of umbilical cord tissue mesenchymal stem cells (UCT-MSC) in individuals with cerebral palsy (CP). The diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) was performed to evaluate the alterations in white-matter integrity. Methods Participants (4–14 years old) with spastic CP were assigned in 1:1 ratio to receive either UCT-MSC or sham procedure. Single-dose (2 × 107) cells were administered in the experimental group. Small needle pricks to the lower back were performed in the sham-control arm. All individuals were sedated to prevent awareness. The primary endpoints were the mean changes in gross motor function measure (GMFM)-66 from baseline to 12 months after procedures. The mean changes in the modified Ashworth scale (MAS), pediatric evaluation of disability inventory (PEDI), and CP quality of life (CP-QoL) were also assessed. Secondary endpoints were the mean changes in fractional anisotropy (FA) and mean diffusivity (MD) of corticospinal tract (CST) and posterior thalamic radiation (PTR). Results There were 36 participants in each group. The mean GMFM-66 scores after 12 months of intervention were significantly higher in the UCT-MSC group compared to baseline (10.65; 95%CI 5.39, 15.91) and control (β 8.07; 95%CI 1.62, 14.52; Cohen’s d 0.92). The increase was also seen in total PEDI scores (vs baseline 8.53; 95%CI 4.98, 12.08; vs control: β 6.87; 95%CI 1.52, 12.21; Cohen’s d 0.70). The mean change in MAS scores after 12 months of cell injection reduced compared to baseline (−1.0; 95%CI −1.31, −0.69) and control (β −0.72; 95%CI −1.18, −0.26; Cohen’s d 0.76). Regarding CP-QoL, mean changes in domains including friends and family, participation in activities, and communication were higher than the control group with a large effect size. The DTI analysis in the experimental group showed that mean FA increased (CST 0.032; 95%CI 0.02, 0.03. PTR 0.024; 95%CI 0.020, 0.028) and MD decreased (CST −0.035 × 10-3; 95%CI −0.04 × 10-3, −0.02 × 10-3. PTR −0.045 × 10-3; 95%CI −0.05 × 10-3, −0.03 × 10-3); compared to baseline. The mean changes were significantly higher than the control group. Conclusions The UCT-MSC transplantation was safe and may improve the clinical and imaging outcomes. Trial registration The study was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03795974).

This quasi-experimental study involves the experimental and control group which consist of 60 students in first year of SMA Muhammadiyah Sidenreng Rappang   2019/2020 academic year.  The reading test is used to collect data to find out do the students can achieve significant result in reading test using Text-based Character. Based on the result the mean score of the experimental group pre-test was 72.67 and classified into good classification, while the control group was 69.63 classified into good. The mean score of the post-test after treatment for the experimental group was 82.43 (very good) while the control group was 76.53, (good) classification still.  The researcher found that the T-table is higher than the t-test (α) (1.659<2.021). It means that there is a significant difference in the pre-test of the control and experimental group, while in post-test of an experimental and control group, the researcher finds that the T-test is higher than the alpha and previous score in the the pre-test (α) (3.089>2.021). The degree of freedom is 58. This study reveals that the alternative hypothesis (H1) was accepted, and the null hypothesis (H0) was rejected. This is means that the use of Text-based Characters can improves students' reading skills in significant way.

This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of a developed writing module on enhancing the General Foundation Program students’ writing skills. The study made use of a pre-test and post-test quasi-experimental design. The study participants incorporated 70 Omani students and 2 EFL teachers. The students were divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group incorporated 35 students who studied English at the General Foundation Program of Sur Nursing Institute. The control group involved 35 students who took an English course at The General Foundation Program Centre in Muscat. Both institutions function under the auspices of the Omani Ministry of Health. The control group studied the ministry’s writing syllabus, whereas the experimental group studied the writing module. The writing pre-test was done before module delivery and the post-test was done after the intervention. ANCOVA test was utilized to draw a statistical analogy between the mean scores of tests of both groups. The test findings divulged that there was a statistically significant mean difference between the control and experimental group’s scores in the writing post-test. The module significantly enhanced the experimental group’s writing skills.
