This study investigated the relationship between Personal Resources, Work –Life Balance and Job Satisfaction on Manifestation of Workplace Stress in a Sample of Women Bankers working in First Bank Plc in Oyo State. In each of the 33 Local Government Areas in Oyo state, there is at least one First Bank, thus the respondents of this study spread over these LGAS. Descprtive research design was used in this study. A purposive sampling technique was used to select the 182 women bankers that constitute the respondent of this study. Four null hypotheses which were formulated and tested at 0.05 level of significant guided the study. Four instruments were used to elicit information from the respondents. They are:- Occupational Stress Index (OSI), Job Satisfaction Scale, (JSS), Work - Life Balance Scale and Personal Resources questionnaire. Descriptive statistics comprising of frequencies and percentiles of categorical data have been used to describe the profile of the respondents. In order to calculate the reliability of study variables, scores of Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was utilized. A simple and hierarchical regression was employed to test the hypotheses. Pearson correlation has also been used. The relationship between twelve dimensions of occupational stress index (OSI) and the satisfaction with life, work-life balance, job performance, and job satisfaction have been determined following Pearson correlation the relationships are negatively correlated and statistically significant at p<0.05. Six dimensions of occupational stress have negative correlations with satisfaction with life scale. Nine dimensions of occupational stress index dimensions are negatively correlated with work-life balance. Suggestions and recommendations were made that women bankers should find time to participate in recreational activities (e.g. music, sports), management and utilization of free times and weekends, regular exercise, and moderate food and drinks (avoiding excessive consumption of coffee, tea or ciggarettes).
Our study was about access on drinking water in the urban rural population of Bumba. It was about getting ways how the population of this city could organize themselves to provide drinking water for themselves, which they need for their life. In fact, in a particular way, an emphasis was put on the quality of the water that they use and its repercussion on the public health.
Water, considered inaccessible and of bad quality according to the investigations, is responsible for hydric diseases. Its inaccessibility, to the population, is specially due to deterioration of the installations, to the dysfunction and long distance to the water providing wells. Water quality problems in Bumba is explained by the lack of treatment of consumption water by the majority of its population, impotence of the public powers, the e lack of voluntarism as far as improvement of population life conditions is concern, lack of mobilization and programs integration "water and health". Bad practices in Hygiene and cleaning makes populations vulnerable, mostly infants who are the most exposed to all hydric diseases (dermatosis, gales, diarrhea, intestine infections, parasitosis, etc.) "Drinking water for all" question has become, since some years, the target of many international conferences and preoccupies the whole humanity.
Generally, these results reveals to us that, not only drinking water accessibility and its basic cleaning are difficult in Bumba, but also the population behavior.
Drinking water treatment and waste management have alarming dimensions in rural DR Congo, particularly in the Bengamisa region, and are currently experiencing continuous and permanent degradation. Also, there is a disparity between cities and within cities and this is expressed in terms of quality and quantity of drinking water between well-equipped areas (regular areas) and poorly equipped areas (irregular areas).
However, water scarcity is characterized here by the abundance of dirty water whose use is a hindrance to the economic and social emergence of the population. The criteria for water scarcity in the Bengamisa region are lack of or poor access to drinking water, the preponderance of water-related diseases and above all the "doubt" that consumers have about the quality of water. of this resource. In general, the objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of plastic bottles in the treatment of drinking water by solar radiation, but also on human health. To achieve the objectives, we treated the drinking water by SODIS method, which consists in exposing under water the water contained in the PET plastic bottle for its purification. Thus, the following physicochemical parameters were the subject of our analyzes: pH, M.O, color, turbidity, nitrate, nitrite, total iron and temperature; and this before and after photo-purification of water. Indeed, it is clear from our investigations that the photo-purification of water does not change the physicochemical parameters of the drinking water so much. Similarly, it should be noted that not all plastics are innocuous and we must be wary of buying not only bottled water but also other products / foods packaged with plastic. But, it is rather important to know what kind of plastic you have to do; and that all codes, in general, are mentioned on the bottom of bottles, containers, corks, etc. To do this, the plastic bottle based on polyethylene terephtalate (PET) is more recommended than the others, because of its performance in solar recipe. It should also be remembered that consuming bottled water harms the wallet, the environment, and "could" harm health.
The present article proposes a web application model that may enable university jury members to publish student results online and students to access their results on their mobile phones. Thanks to this model, students in a good network coverage area will receive their results on their phones in real time, without any need to go to campus and to connect to the Internet or to access a website. Thus, university students and institutions will be spared the trouble witnessed during the publication of results in the city of Bukavu.
The vision of the subject treated is to update the problems caused by the effect of school results in primary school and their outcomes in one first semester in the first year of their secondary school for the same students of the 55th CEBCE/Goma town.
The university today, designate an establishment that makes operate the production within (research), the conservation (publication), and the transmission (studies superior) of different domain of knowledge. We were interested in the opinions of the pupils meadows finalists on the question. We left from the main question: what perception the pupils meadows finalists have - them of the university? of this main question, we cleared two conjectures; the pupils meadows finalist would have a good perception of the university and they would keep a good picture of the university. The quantitative and descriptive approach has been kept to verify our conjectures. Three schools have been chosen at random in the city of Kisangani and two schools have been chosen in the schools of the city of Ikela. The questionnaire acted us as instrument of harvest of the data, the frequential numbering and the analysis of the results, served us to pull some findings.
The present study aimed to determine the variables that distinguish the hydromorphic soils (Gleysols) used in irrigated or flooded rice growing in the region of Bélier in Côte d'Ivoire and to explain the causes of their variability in order to better apprehend their use in a context of precision agriculture. To do this, a quantitative characterization of the physicochemical composition of these soils was carried out. Soil samples analyzed in the laboratory were collected at various locations in the study area on plots currently or formerly used in rice production. The analytical results of these samples were subjected to a principal component analysis that revealed four homogeneous subsets of soils. These subsets of soils were fundamentally distinct from one another by their silt, clay and organic contents which also emerged as their fertility determinants. Thus, the study will have shown the interest for the rice producers of the zone to carry out a preliminary analysis of the spatial variability of the soil parameters before any agricultural development of the soil.
After fifty-six years (56) of its independence, DRC doesn’t succeed to organize special teaching everywhere at its national territory. Out of thirty (30) educational provinces, only twenty-two (22) provinces organize special teaching (An average of 109 special schools out of 51 377 ordinary schools). Eight educational provinces are lacking in this special teaching, may be Eighty (80) national teaching subdivisions don’t take care of disabled children. What to do? DRC must adopt new approaches which allow organization of this specific teaching everywhere. Hence inclusive education seems to be the most suitable approach to assure education for all in DRC; but many conditions of it success must be gathered. So, in the future, RDC must reform its educative system.
This study focuses on the attitudes developed by the fourth from pupils at the secondary school in Bukavu town, especially in the suburb area of Bagira faced with the use of Periodic table of chemistry elements for the school year 2016-2017.
Its aim is only to analyze and estimate the pupils’ answers linked to the usage of this work tool of chemistry, in order to give the learning impact on the course of chemistry.
So we have proceeded by the survey research method by means of questionnaire intending to collect the pupils’ answers. Our sample came out from the occasional technic sampling, while the index of percentage allowed us to analyze and interpret the data of our research. The results focus on the importance that pupils attach to the use of periodic table of chemistry elements.
The present work is a contribution to the study of the fight against enteric diseases by traditional therapeutics. It evaluates the effects of the aqueous extracts of Ephorbia hirta, Ipomea Involucrata, Mangifera indica, Musa ensete, Oxalis corymboza and Psidium goyaya and those of organic extracts based on methanol from the barks of Mangifera indica on strains of normal flora; E. coli and Enterobacter aerogenes and pathogenic strains of Salmonella typhi, Shigella flexneri and Shigella sonnei by the antibiogram test technique. The first tests with aqueous extracts for all plants provide valuable information on empirical recipe values. Some plants commonly used in the fight against diarrhea have an antibacterial effect. This is the case of Mangifera indica (barks and leaves), Musa ensete and Psidium goyava. These extracts also have in fact the strains of E. coli or Enterobacter aerogenes which represents a danger for the normal intestinal flora. Other plants, on the other hand, have no antibacterial effect or have a very reduced effect. Thus Oxalis corymboza and Ipomea involucrata appear to be involved in other antidiarrheal mechanisms. Euphobia hirta has a specific action on E. coli but it could be said that its antidysenteric role is specific to amoebiasis.
Mangifera indica barks provide the most relevant extract, acting on all strains with the exception of Enterobacter aerogenes. The aqueous extracts based on methanol obtained after dilution give, during the tests, the MIC (Minimum Inhibitory Concentration) of a few mg / ml for Shigella sonnei (10-3 dilution) of a few tenth of mg / ml for Shigella flexneri and Salmonella typhi (dilution 10-4) and some one hundredth of mg / ml for E.coli (Dilution 10-5). The MIC for E. coli confirms the empirical recipes. The hypothesis that these barks are frequently used in cases of gastroenteritis in children is verified. The antibiogram tests carried out provide details on the empirical recipes and make it possible to affirm that the barks of Magnifera indica are effective against the gastroenteritis of children; the active ingredient is soluble in methanol, some plants present a danger for normal intestinal flora hence the need to associate vitamin B complex and that other plants have no antibacterial effect.
Two drying techniques (solar and oven) were used to dry a variety of commercially mature mango. We have a drying efficiency of 33% for sun dried mango (SDM) versus 26% for oven dried mango (ODM); the relative humidity is 14.17% ± 0.01 for SDM compared with 8.25% ± 0.01 for ODM. We observe a decrease in dry matter for SDM compared to ODM. Mango dried in the sun has a high concentration of vitamin B6 and C; in mineral elements (Ca, Mg and Fe). But we also noted the presence of vitamins (A, D and E) after the drying operations. For microbiological parameters, we obtained results meeting the limits set by the ISO 4833 standard which governs the microbiology of the food chain. The method of solar drying in view of the results obtained proves to be the one that boosts the nutritional properties of mango.
