This study aimed at showing health supervisor’s role in enhancing the effectiveness of health education areas in public schools in the city of Ma’an, Jordan, and its relationship to some demographic variables for the academic year 2016-2017.The study population consists of all health supervisors in public schools in the city of Ma’an for the academic year 2016-2017. The entire school number reached 38 schools including 13 schools for males, and 25 schools for females. The total sample size of the study was 38 supervisors as each school had one health supervisor. Due to the lack of the school populations, all the 38 supervisors had been used by 100% of the school population for the purpose of this study. In addition, the researcher had used descriptive analytical approach based on the case study or phenomenon as it was existed in the case. This phenomenon had been described accurately and expressed qualitatively and quantitatively.A study tool of 22 questions had been used for the application of this study and its data collection. The tool included four main parts: the first part contained questions 1-7 related to the first area (nutrition), and the second part contained questions 8-12 of the second area environmental health and public safety, whereas the third part had questions 13-17 which showed the third area the personal health of students and promoting health awareness. As to part four, it contained questions 18-22 related to the fourth area Reproductive health. Each response had been scaled according to Likert Scale Quintet.Data had been analyzed through the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). Also, frequencies, mean as well as standard deviation had been the statistical methods used for describing the variability of some data in our study. Furthermore, differential analysis tests such as analysis of variance test (One-Way ANOVA) had been used to see if there was any difference in the mean scores among groups on some variable. In addition, Cronbach’s Alpha had been used to measure the scale consistency.One of the most important results, shown by our study, had been the significant and effective role of the school health supervisor in Ma’an public schools for the academic year 2016-2017 in all areas of health education mentioned in the questionnaire. In addition, the results showed non-existence of statistically significant differences, attributed to variation in gender and the level of education, at the level of (α ≥ 0.05) for the role of health supervisor in enhancing the effectiveness of areas of health education in public schools. In the light of the results obtained in the present study, the researcher made many recommendations, among which the most important are: identifying health officer in each school who must have the required qualifications to hold the title of a health supervisor so that he/she could achieve all responsibilities to the fullest. Another important recommendation was to make an ongoing evaluation of school health programmes in those schools and also make workshops, seminars and conferences for teachers specializing in school health.

In developing an effective Chidhood weight management, it needs to be based on a theory. The Social Cognitive theory (SCT) and Urie Bronfenbrenner model with integrated Kolb's model of Learning Styles and Experiential Learning is used in this study to modify and make changes to the personal factor influences such as knowledge, attitude and expectations, behavior modification and environmental influences among overweight and obese school children. The aim of this study is to provide a new model for the professional development role of the nurses in the School Health Program (SHP) and health education promotion towards obese school children to improve their quality of life. Furthermore, in this study SHP and future health education and promotion are integrated with the role of SHN to facilitate the effective management of childhood obesity.

Introduction: The school bullying is characterized by repetitiveness of aggression and the intentionality to injure or cause suffering to others. The bystanders to this phenomenon tend to be mainly responsible for the course that bullying will take and its results. Objective: To analyse the association between the role of bystander with the other possible roles played in bullying. Method: A total of 409 children from the third to seventh grade participated in this study, with an average age of 11 years (SD = 1.61), enrolled in two municipal public schools in Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, Brazil. The instruments used were: one of the scales of the Questionnaire for the Study of Violence Among Peers, to identify bystanders, and the Olweus Questionnaire, to describe the possible roles played in school bullying. Results: It was found that most of the participants assumed the role of bystander in school bullying. However, an association was found with regard to gender and being a bystander. Also, strong association was found between being a bystander and the other roles played in bullying, primarily in relation to the bullies. Conclusion: These results reinforce the importance of bystanders in these aggressions, not only because they represent most of the participants, but mainly because of the positive or negative reinforcement they can offer in these aggressive behaviours. Therefore, the incentive and the encouragement of these students to denounce the aggressors, as well as defending the victims is essential to reduce school bullying.

The city of Cairo - since the beginning of the third millennium - has witnessed a constructional expansion of new cities for people of class A to live within gated communities, which provide luxury and safety. This research aims to identify the tangible and intangible needs from the occupants’ and the interior designer’s perspective, due to the diversity of these needs. The identification of these demands may help to clarify the requirements provided by the large construction companies, which will highlight the role of the interior designer in the design process of the residential units.Keywords: Interior design in Egypt, Contemporary Egyptian residences, Egyptian residential needs, Gated communities in Egypt.eISSN: 2398-4287© 2019.

Particularly in Creon’s debate with Haemon, and from then on, Sophocles shows distinct aspects of how anger acts on the tyrant’s ability to judge and how this can be related to inextricable familial and political ties. As every modern reading of the play applies a philosophical conceptualization to understand emotions and thus suffer the consequences of a historical gap between interpretative and original vocabularies, this paper argues that the Aristotelian conceptualization of emotions is a relevant philosophical tool to better contextualize Creon’s anger in Sophocles’ Antigone. The essay discusses Creon’s thymetic responses in the face of Haemon’s admonition and Antigone’s oligoria, and offers two examples of Aristotelian readings of Creon’s thymetic akrasia. One of the possible readings considers the specific role of phantasia in Creon’s understanding of reality. This philosophical explanation of a revengeful tyrant reveals important connections between psychology and politics in the government of the city.

Abstract During the second half of the seventeenth century, there were at least three embassies between the Spaniards of Manila and the Fujian based Zheng regime. The first embassy took place in 1656 ordered by the Spanish governor in Manila. The ambassadors were two captains of the city, and its aim was to re-establish trade relations, which had been severed many months before. In response, Zheng Chenggong sent his cousin to the Philippine islands to settle several business arrangements regarding Fujianese trade. In 1662, Zheng Chenggong took the initiative of sending the Dominican Victorio Riccio, who worked as missionary in the Catholic mission at Xiamen, as emissary to the Governor of the Philippines, don Sabiniano Manrique de Lara. The third embassy took place in 1663. Thereupon, Zheng Jing, Zheng Chenggong’s successor, sent Riccio to Manila for signing a peace pact and for re-establishing trade. The three embassies were related to the Zheng’s purpose of gaining economic and political supremacy over the Philippines and the South China Seas. In all three cases, the actors, the diplomatic correspondence, the material aspects and the results differed profoundly. The article analyzes the role of individuals as intermediaries and translators while considering the social and cultural effects that these embassies had on the Sino-Spanish relations in Manila.
