Plastic Waste Management in Rwanda
Rapid economic growth and poor environmental management have Rwanda facing growing pollution problems, including solid waste and plastic pollution, among others. For years, Rwanda has sought to tackle plastic waste, and the country has been proactive in pursuing environmental management with ambitious policy measures. Since 2000 when the government of Rwanda introduced its Vision 2020, the nation has progressed in introducing waste management pra…
Impact of the Gap Between Social Workers' Work Interaction Frequency With Governments and Clients on Their Burnout in China
This study revealed that front-line social workers in China who had more work interaction with governments and less with clients could have higher role conflict, increasing their burnout further. Therefore, social work educational programs should include adequate mental adjustment courses and practical emplacement to prepare students for the potential role conflict. Furthermore, higher-level governments should issue relevant regulations to form a…

Analysis of Introducing Active Learning Methodologies in a Basic Computer Architecture Course
This paper presents an analysis of introducing active methodologies in the Computer Architecture course taught in the second year of the Computer Engineering Bachelor's degree program at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU), Spain. The paper reports the experience from three academic years, 2011–2012, 2012–2013, and 2013–2014, in which three types of data were considered for analysis: students' dedication, as measured by time spent on t…

Game-Console-Based Projects for Learning the Computer Input/Output Subsystem
The input/output (I/O) subsystem is an important topic within computer architecture (CA) because it determines how the computer interacts with its environment. For this reason, computer scientists and engineers must understand how the computer manages this interaction, which is usually taught in introductory CA courses. Of course, there are many different styles of teaching, ranging from purely theoretical to completely practical. The CA course c…

P1-167 Individual and territorial disparities in the knowledge and practices of the french national nutritional guideline « fruits and vegetables
Introduction The ageing of the European population raises questions concerning the growing incidence of chronic diseases. Improving population health status, by acting on one of its most important determinants, that is, nutrition, was the target of the PNNS (Nutrition Health National Program) launched in 2001 in France. This study aimed to examine the individual and territorial characteristics associated with the PNNS guideline to eat: « at least…

Cross-national Comparability of Survey Attitude Measures
Many international surveys include batteries of questions which are combined to form scales by secondary analysts who often treat these scales as unproblematic. However, to be able to make valid cross-national comparisons of values on scales such as these, we need to be sure that the variations genuinely reflect differences in populations rather than being due to various forms of error. In order to illustrate the kinds of problems that can occur,…

Methods for Testing and Evaluating Survey Questions
An examination of survey pretesting reveals a paradox. On the one hand, pretesting is the only way to evaluate in advance whether a questionnaire causes problems for interviewers or respondents. Consequently, both elementary textbooks and experienced researchers declare pretesting indispensable. On the other hand, most textbooks offer minimal, if any, guidance about pretesting methods, and published survey reports usually provide no information a…

Outcomes of a health education intervention in a sample of patients infected by HIV, most of them injection drug users
We studied the receptivity of a population of HIV-infected patients to the development of a group educational intervention in order to enhance the adherence to therapy. We designed a group educational activity conducted by family physicians and directed to patients with HIV infection treated with antiretrovirals for at least six months. We conducted a randomized trial that compared two interventions: an educational intervention plus individual co…
Dermatoglyphics of inhabitants of Alberche/Tormes valley (Sierra de Gredos-Central Spain)
The incidence of dermatoglyphic finger patterns and pattern intensity in a sample of school children from the Alberche/Tormes valley (northern slope of the Sierra de Gredos, Central Spain) are described. Significant bilateral differences for the overall finger pattern incidence are found in both sexes. The differences between sexes are also statistically significant, except for the left hand. The Pattern Intensity Index significantly differs betw…

Body composition of rural and urban children from the Central Region of Spain
Body composition components are considered in a cross-sectional sample of 2564 children (age range 6-14 years) from Central Spain. The sample was divided depending on rural or urban residence. Weight, and skinfold at the triceps, biceps, subscapular and suprailiac site were measured. Body composition was represented by percentage fat (%F), lean body mass (LBM), fat mass (FM) and sum of skinfolds (SSK). Sex differences were found to be highly sign…
Dermatoglyphic analysis of La Liebana (Cantabria, Spain). 2. Finger ridge counts
The results of univariate and multivariate analyses of the quantitative finger dermatoglyphic traits (i.e. ridge counts) of a sample of 109 males and 88 females from La Liébana (Cantabria, Spain) are reported. Univariate results follow the trends usually found in previous studies, e.g., ranking of finger ridge counts, bilateral asymmetry or shape of the distributions of the frequencies. However, sexual dimorphism is nearly inexistent concerning f…

Cancer mortality among Mexican Americans and other whites in Texas, 1969-80
Cancer mortality in Texas 1969-80 was 25 per cent lower among Mexican American males compared to other Whites; among females, rates were only 4 per cent lower. Reduced mortality was primarily a result of lower rates for cancers of the most common sites: lung, colon, breast and prostate. However, for cancers of the stomach, liver, and gallbladder, Mexican Americans had higher rates than other Whites. Female Mexican Americans were also at a higher …

Subjects in a boys' secondary school were asked to participate in an experiment which exposed them to the risk of up to 50% hearing loss. Of 42 Ss, 39 participated voluntarily. Each operated a fake "sound generator" similar to Milgram's "shock generator" and administered to himself a supposed stimulus whose "danger level" was prominently displayed before him. The highest level of stimulus to which each was prepared to go was recorded. Results sho…

Primary liver cancer mortality and incidence in Texas Mexican Americans, 1969-80
During the years 1969-80, primary liver cancer mortality rates for Mexican American males were 2.2 times higher than for other Whites; Mexican American females had rates 2.8 times higher than other White females. Age-specific mortality rates showed even higher risks for older Mexican Americans exceeding both other White and Black rates three to four-fold. Incidence data for El Paso County (Texas) confirmed the increased risk for Mexican American …
Quadrat Analysis of Urban Dispersion
This paper is a continuation of an earlier two-part essay on quadrat analysis. It extends the previous discussion by introducing bivariate models of spatial dispersion to analyze statistically the correlated spatial clustering of food stores and population in urban areas. The data used for empirical study are the spatial patterns of food stores and residential population in Ljubljana, Yugoslavia
Causal Geography of the British Isles
Theoretical Languages in Psychology
An attempt is made to provide a statement of the sufficient conditions for the functional equivalence of observable events in Psychology. Without a statement of those conditions, no explanation of functional equivalence in empirical situations can be achieved. A characterization of functional equivalence strictly in terms of the traditional S–R language is examined. This characterization is found to be inappropriate in that it entails vacuous med…
