ASSESSMENT OF YOUTH PARTICIPATION IN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS: AN EXPERIENCE FROM MEKELLE, ETHIOPIA, EASTERN AFRICA

The main objective of the study was to assess the level of youth participation in Community Development programs. The cross sectional research design was used for this study. Both qualitative and quantitative data were collected from the primary and secondary source to meet stated study objectives. The primary data was collected from the sample respondents. The secondary data was collected from related annual reports, progress reports, published and un-published documents, journals, books, internet and other sources. Quantitative and qualitative data collection methods were used. The study used simple random sampling technique to select sample respondents. The study results revealed that youths were interested to participate in sports and recreation activities, entrepreneurship and artistic activities. However, all respondents agreed that there were limited sport and recreation centers in the study area so that youths were not enjoyed more according their interest. The study also indicated that majority of youth were not involved in needs assessment level, prioritization stage, planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation stage of the community development programs. This implies that youth are not given opportunity to involve in the community development process in the study area. The study further revealed that, youth were motivating to participate in community development programs, to learn new skills, experiences and to achieve personal goals. Therefore, for effective, genuine and active youth participation, government, non-government and other youth concerned organizations priority should be given to designing program activities that meets youth new skills, experiences and personal goals.

Discrete-event simulation study of a COVID-19 mass vaccination centre

The global spread of COVID-19 and the declaration of the pandemic status made by the World Health Organization (WHO) led to the establishment of mass vaccination campaigns. The challenges posed by the request to immunise the entire population necessitated the set-up of new vaccination sites, named Mass Vaccination Centres (MVCs), capable of handling large numbers of patients rapidly and safely. The present study focused on the evolution of MVC performances, in terms of the maximum number of vaccinated patients and primary resource utilisation ratio, while involving statistics belonging to the patient dimension. The research involved the creation of a digital model of the MVC, using the Discrete-Event Simulation (DES) software (FlexSim Healthcare), and consequent what-if analyses. The results were derived from the study of an existing facility, located within a sports centre in the province of Bergamo (Italy) and operating with an advanced MVC organisational model, in compliance with the national anti-SARS-CoV-2 legislation. The research provided additional evidence on innovative MVC organisational models, identifying an optimal MVC configuration. Besides, the obtained results remain relevant for countries where a significant portion of the population has not yet addressed the emergency, either for upcoming vaccination treatments. Furthermore, the methodology adopted in the present article proved to be a valuable resource in the analysis of the healthcare processes.

ISLAMIC ARCHITECTURE APPROACH IN MUSLIMAH SPORTS CENTRE’S LAYOUT

Muslimah or women who believe in Islam have various kinds of etiquette restrictions when leaving the house. One of them is etiquette in doing sports. Sports that require active movement, have made it difficult for Muslimah to find public facilities that can accommodate sports without violating Islamic law. According to data, Tambaksari District is a geographically strategic place with the largest Muslim population in Surabaya. This potential supports the existence of the Muslimah Sports Centre in Tambaksari. So that Muslim women will get a sports place that is strategic, comfortable, and safe without male intervention. With mixed research between quantitative and qualitative method, this quantitative research assumes an objective reality and a view of the researcher as independent of the subject of inquiry, while qualitative research involved the study of the use and collection of various empirical materials, which eventually presented the perspective of Muslimah’s experiences. The Muslimah Sports Centre has a big goal of creating a better cultural system for religious behavior by understanding things that have been explained in the Al-Quran and As-Sunnah. Thus, the building will serve not only as a means of sports activities but also as a place for providing Islamic values to the users of the building. For this reason, the design of the Muslimah Sports Centre applies an Islamic architectural approach. Because the aim of this study is to provide an understanding that architecture not only serves as a basic reference for developing buildings and their architectural elements, but it can also provide an understanding and learning about how to behave in accordance with the Qur'an and Sunnah inside the building so that we will not violate Islamic law.

The Prevalence of "at Risk" Eating Disorders among Athletes in Jordan.

Eating disorders (EDs) are addressed as one of the expanding mental health problems worldwide. While an ED is a clinical psychiatric diagnosis that can only be established after a psychiatric assessment, it is important to note that "at-risk" refers to people who will exhibit aberrant eating patterns but do not fully meet the requirements for an ED diagnosis. This study was designed to address the ED symptoms (i.e., "at-risk") in Jordanian athletes and their association with age, sex, body mass index (BMI), and type of sport. A convenient, cross-sectional study was conducted among 249 athlete participants by answering the Eating Attitude Test (EAT-26). The EAT-26 results indicated an ED prevalence of 34% among Jordanian athletes. Within "at-risk" ED athletes, sex, age, and BMI had no significant differences in the rates of EDs. Outdoor sports had the least effect on EDs, while the highest was amongst gymnastics. EDs prevalence is alarming among Jordanian athletes. Gymnastics is a risk factor for increasing EDs. Our results should be taken into consideration by physicians, mental health professionals, sports nutritionists, coaches, and sport medicine specialists. We recommend establishing strategies pertaining to mental health, especially EDs in sports centers, along with screening programs for those who demand additional assessment and supervision.

Optimal Location of Exit Doors for Efficient Evacuation of Crowds at Gathering Places

This work deals with the optimal design for the location of the exit doors at meeting places (such as sports centers, public squares, street markets, transport stations, etc.) to guarantee a safer emergency evacuation in events of a sporting, social, entertainment or religious type. This problem is stated as an optimal control problem of nonlinear partial differential equations, where the state system is a reformulation of the Hughes model (coupling the eikonal equation for a density-weighted walking velocity of pedestrians and the continuity equation for conservation of the pedestrian density), the control is the location of the exit doors at the domain boundary (subject to several geometric constraints), and the cost function is related to the evacuation rate. We provide a full numerical algorithm for solving the problem (a finite element technique for the discretization and a gradient-free procedure for the optimization), and show several numerical results for a realistic case.

The effects of workers' job stress on organizational commitment and leaving intention in commercial sports centers.

The purpose of this study is to identify the factors affecting the job stress of commercial sports center workers on organizational commitment and turnover intention. The causal relationship between their demographic characteristics and job stress was investigated for 261 out of 300 workers working at commercial sports centers in Seoul, Incheon, and Gyeonggi province. There was a difference by work type, and it was found that there was a difference between regular and contract workers. Role-related and interpersonal relationships had a negative influence relationship in terms of tenure commitment, normative commitment, and affective commitment. Job characteristics, role-related, interpersonal relationship, and compensation system had an influence on turnover intention. In other words, it was found that role-related and interpersonal relationships had a positive effect on turnover intention, and job characteristics and compensation system had a negative effect on turnover intention. It was found that job stress affects both organizational commitment and turnover intention. The results of this study indicate that job stress, organizational commitment, and turnover intention should be dealt with mainly in order to reduce turnover intention of commercial sports center workers. In other words, clearer guidelines on the role of commercial sports center workers and various welfare programs for improving human relationships should be provided. Therefore, commercial sports centers should continuously research and develop ways to maximize job satisfaction from the perspective of workers in order to reduce job stress and induce positive organizational commitment.

Assessment of seasonal Borehole Thermal Energy Storage in the seawater intrusion region of a carbonate aquifer

In coastal areas the seawater intrusion region underlying freshwater aquifers represents a low quality but wide and deep geo resource. Seasonal thermal energy storage and recovery is an important component of district heating and cooling system to manage renewable energy fluctuations, such as solar irradiance or waste heat from industrial processes, and the corresponding mismatch of thermal energy demand and supply. A numerical tool to evaluate the performance of seasonal Borehole Thermal Energy Storage (BTES) system to store and recover solar energy in the seawater intrusion region, underlying the shallow freshwater aquifer and with thermally and hydraulically insulated upper borehole section is developed and applied to the coastal carbonate aquifer of the metropolitan area of Bari (Italy). The hourly thermal demand of the University Sport Centre of Bari is used as benchmark. The design and performance of the BTES system is strongly dependent on the geological and hydrogeological context as well as on the environmental and operational conditions. The aquifer characterization suggests to locate BTES zone at a depth higher than 100 m from the freshwater – saltwater interface where carbonate unit appears less fractured and karstified showing a value of bulk permeability less than 10−12 m2 and the groundwater flow is slow (∼10−3 md−1). Rayleigh number criterion is used as constraint to determine the maximum heat storage temperature (∼70°C) in order to preserve the lateral thermal stratification and the thermal impact on the shallow freshwater resource. A novel mathematical and computational model is developed to help the design of BTES system and to evaluate its efficiency. The results indicate that the thermal losses within thermally insulated zone influence the effective thermal recovery factor which, according to the baseline scenario, is equal to 47% after five years of operation. The heat energy production of the solar heating system, covers the heat demand with percentage range of 79–117%. The location of BTES in deep seawater region attenuates the decreases of efficiency due to the groundwater flow which became significant at specific discharge around 10−2 md−1. Changing the operation schedule with a shorter heating storage period increases the thermal recovery factor of the BTES of 11.19% after five years of operation, but at the same time the trend of the heat energy production shows a surplus during the midseason and deficit during the winter and summer season respect to the thermal demand. Great care must be taken on the maximum heat storage temperature. A low heat storage temperature ensures a wider safety margin with regards to the thermal stratification and the thermal impact on the shallow aquifer. Anyway, a decrease of 10°C on the maximum heat storage temperature produces a deficit of the heat production respect to the thermal demand in the range of 15%–21%.

A Spatial and Contextual Exposome-Wide Association Study of COVID-19 Hospitalizations in Florida, United States

Background and Aim: Recent studies suggested that long-term environmental exposures may be important determinants of COVID-19 severity. However, very few environmental factors have been studied, and often separately without considering the totality of the environment (i.e., the exposome). To address this gap, we conducted a spatial and contextual exposome-wide association study (ExWAS) of COVID-19 hospitalizations in Florida, United States (US). Methods: We obtained electronic health records data of 50,368 patients 18 years and older with a positive SARS-CoV-2 PCR/Antigen lab test or a COVID-19 diagnosis between March 2020 and October 2021 from the OneFlorida+ Data Trust. Patients’ exposures to 211 spatial and contextual exposome factors during 2015-2019 were integrated and spatiotemporally linked to their residential addresses. A two-phase analytical procedure was used. (1) A random 50:50 split divided the data into discovery and replication sets. Associations between COVID-19 hospitalizations and individual exposome factors were examined using mixed-effect logistic regression models, with multiple comparisons addressed. (2) A multivariable regression model including all variables that were statistically significant from both the discovery and replication sets was fitted. Odds ratio for each standard deviation increase (ORSD) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were reported. Results: A total of 12 and 21 variables were statistically significant in the discovery and replication sets, respectively. Among the 7 variables included in Phase 2, 3 variables remained statistically significant, including (1) hydrochloric acid (ORSD: 1.93, 95% CI: 1.11, 3.38), obtained from the US Environmental Protection Agency’s National Air Toxics Assessment, (2) density of fitness and recreational sports centers (ORSD: 0.94, 95% CI: 0.92, 0.97), assessed using the US Census Business Pattern, and (3) neighborhood deprivation index (ORSD: 1.09, 95% CI: 1.06, 1.12), derived using the American Community Survey. Conclusions: Long-term exposures to three spatial and contextual exposome factors were associated with COVID-19 hospitalizations in Florida, United States.
