Prevalence and associated factors of premenstrual dysphoric disorder among high school students in Finote Selam town, northwest Ethiopia.

Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) is the most prevalent but neglected psychiatric disorder, with somatic symptoms that are severe enough to markedly affect usual daily activities and have a negative impact on mental health and quality of life by affecting female patients' behavior and cognition. Studies regarding premenstrual dysphoric disorder and associated factors among high school students in low- and middle-income countries are limited. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the prevalence and associated factors of PMDD among high school students, and this is pivotal in further investigation. A school-based cross-sectional study was conducted from March 25 to April 17, 2023 using a simple random-sampling technique to select a sample of 564 participants. Premenstrual dysphoric disorder was assessed using the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). Self-administered standardized questionnaires were used to collect data. A total of 548 study participants participated, with a 97.2% response rate. The prevalence of premenstrual dysphoric disorder among high school students was found to be 33.03% (95%CI: 29.20-37.09). In a multivariable analysis, irregular menstruation cycle (AOR = 4.242, 95%CI = 2.182-8.246), depression (AOR = 5.272, 95%CI = 2.779-10.002), having greater than 4 days of menstruation bleeding duration (AOR = 2.138, 95%CI = 1.105-4.138), and high perceived stress (AOR = 3.468, 95%CL = 1.217-9.880) were the factors significantly associated with premenstrual dysphoric disorder. The overall prevalence of PMDD which was one-third among high school students was high. Moreover, long duration of menstruation bleeding, depressive symptoms, irregular menstruation cycle, and high perceived stress were significant factors in PMDD. Therefore, it needs early screening and intervention in primary healthcare settings, especially for those who have high perceived stress, having depression, having a long duration of menstruation bleeding, and having an irregular menstruation cycle, so as to have good academic achievement and psychological wellbeing.

The Combined Influence of EQ and IQ Towards Building Positive Attitudes among Engineering Students: A Structural Equation Modelling Approach

In recent years, the emotional quotient and intelligence quotient have been considered an important factor in understanding and forecasting an individual’s accomplishment and have become a significant influence on managerial practices. Students with higher emotional quotient and intelligence quotients are expected to achieve higher levels in both their academic and personal lives. Most of the studies examined the impact of emotional quotient and intelligence quotient on academic performance discretely, and their combined influence was not studied. Thus, this study analyzes the influence of emotional and intelligence quotient on building confidence and positive attitudes among students. Data was gathered from 355 engineering students from various engineering colleges covering the cities of Hyderabad and Telangana. The collected data has been analyzed through the convenience random sampling technique. Further, structural equation modeling has been employed to test the generated hypotheses. The result indicated that the emotional quotient and intelligence quotient significantly influence the confidence and positive attitudes of engineering students. The significant levels of influence of EQ and IQ on positive attitudes and confidence in career development are 0.575*** and 0.488**. The findings provide significant inference to students in terms of developing emotional and intellectual values that are required to be inculcated in them to possess a good academic record and career achievement.

Analisis Student Engagement Dan Burnout Pada Mahasiswa Politeknik Negeri Manado

The number of attrition increases every year so the competition for job seekers must become increasingly competitive. Although the cumulative achievement index (GPA) is not an absolute guarantee to be used as a reference in looking for work. However, GPA is the administration's initial selection in recruiting employees, so students must have a strategy to be able to achieve a high GPA. One of the efforts made to achieve a high GPA is with good academic achievement. Learning achievement is influenced by internal and external factors. External factors are factors that come from outside the student. Meanwhile, internal factors come from within the student, including engagement and burnout. The aim of this research is to determine the level of student engagement and academic burnout of students. The population in this study were students from the Business Administration Department of Manado State Polytechnic with a sample of 100 students. The sampling method in this research is convenience sampling. The data analysis used is descriptive statistical analysis. The results of this research state that student engagement is in the high category. The highest average score is a feeling of pride among students studying at the Manado State Polytechnic Campus. Meanwhile, the lowest average score is that students are forced to carry out all learning activities on campus because it is considered less interesting. Meanwhile, the level of student burnout is in the medium category. The highest average burnout score is that talking about studies is boring for students. Meanwhile, the lowest students can usually manage the workload related to ongoing studies well.

Implementasi Algoritma Naive Bayes Untuk Klasifikasi Penerima Beasiswa (Studi Kasus Universitas Hamzanwadi)

Every year the University offers various types of scholarships to its students, including Hamzanwadi Selong University, East Lombok. One type of scholarship offered is the Bidikmisi scholarship (KIP/K) which is intended for students who have middle to lower economic levels but have good academic achievement or potential. Every year the number of applicants for this scholarship continues to increase, but the number received each year is limited. The large number of piles of files applying for scholarships and the manual selection process tends to be ineffective and efficient and the results of the selection are inaccurate, so a system is needed that is able to assist in the selection process quickly, easily and on target. The method used is CRIS-DM with the Naive Bayes Classifier algorithm modeling, this method is an approach that refers to the Bayes theorem which combines previous knowledge with new knowledge. The variables consist of 7 attributes, namely: Name, DTKS status, achievement, parents' occupation, total income of parents, home ownership, and number of family dependents[1]. Testing was carried out using k-fold cross validation, and the highest accuracy results were obtained from k-fold 4 of 91.43%, while the AUC was 0.996% with a very good diagnostic classification. Thus it can be interpreted that the Naive Bayes algorithm is very well used in the selection of scholarships for bidikmisi scholarships at Hamzanwadi University

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT AND STUDENTS’ ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT

This study aimed to determine the relationship between parental involvement and students’ academic achievement. In addition, the purpose of this study was to determine the level of parental involvement and student academic achievement. To answer the research questions, descriptive mean analysis and Pearson Product Coefficient Correlation were used. The findings revealed that: (1) the level of parental involvement was 3.82, indicating frequent parental involvement; (2) the level of student academic achievement was 83.07, indicating good academic achievement; and (3) the p =.135 and r =.195, indicating that there is no significant correlation between parental involvement and student academic achievement; however, the correlation was found to be positive but only weakly. The researcher concluded that parental involvement is not a significant factor that has a relationship with student academic achievement. It is suggested that future researchers or teachers look for other factors that have a significant relationship on student academic achievement.

Econometric Evidence on Statistical Anxiety of Engineering Students during the New Normal Setup

Students' anxiety is one of the hindrances to good academic achievement due to its adverse impact on cognitive attitudes. This study aimed to ascertain the impact of socio-economic profile and learning experiences that are affected by the COVID-19 pandemic concerning students' anxiety in learning statistics. The study used descriptive measures and econometric models to elucidate the anxiety level and its predictors of engineering students in a state university. Result reveals that the mean students' perception score for their anxiety level is 34.19 (SD=4.94) and is classified as "anxious". This implies that students are experiencing uncomfortable moments and distressing learning behavior due to the adverse impact of the pandemic on the educational system. The econometric model reveals that older and female students are more anxious about learning statistics online. Findings showed that the level of difficulty and less creativity in statistics lessons contributes to the anxiety level of students. In conclusion, instructors/professors must motivate their students and build their interest in learning statistics by giving them realistic and enjoyable activities that suit online education. Furthermore, instructors/professors must undergo training that develops and improves their teaching strategies in statistics to become competitive educators in online learning amid the pandemic.

Generic switching: Do future physicians in Jordan have enough knowledge and a positive attitude?

Background: Generic switching is a policy that has shown success in minimising pharmaceutical costs. It has also been used to mitigate recurrent and sudden drug shortages. Not all countries have policies that allow pharmacists to switch to generic drugs independently. In Jordan, only pharmacists at Ministry of Health hospitals automatically switch to generics if doctors had not already done INN prescribing. Objectives: This study targeted medical students to assess their experience with generic switching as patients, their knowledge of the subject as students, and their attitude towards it as future prescribers and policymakers. Methods: This is a descriptive, cross-sectional study conducted online. Eligibility criteria were being a fourth, fifth, or sixth-year medical school student enrolled at any of the six Jordanian universities. The questionnaire was developed by the researchers after a careful review of the relevant literature. Results: Three hundred and ninety students responded to the online questionnaire. Most participants were females (244, 62.6%), senior students in their final (6th)year (162, 41.5%) and with very good academic achievement (166, 42.6%). The highest knowledge scores concerned patient rights (0.73/1.00), followed by knowledge about monitoring after generic switching (0.66/1.00), and patients with known drug allergies (0.66/1.00). Almost half of the participants believe that pharmacists should not be given the right to do generic switching and only 16% stated that they would choose generic drugs if they needed treatment in the future. Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that significant predictors of knowledge were gender, GPA, and family income. No correlations were found between participants' knowledge scores and their attitudes towards giving pharmacists the right to independently switch drugs, or whether they would accept a substitute from pharmacists rather than having to refer to the physician. Conclusion: Medical students in Jordan lack sufficient knowledge about generic switching. Students need to be more aware of the current policies and regulations of this practice, and the role of each healthcare worker involved in it. They also need to have a more positive attitude toward generic drugs and generic switching practice to facilitate its future implementation.

Karolina Bogdanavičienė 1, Gerda Gudavičiūtė1, Silvija Valdonė Alšauskė1,2 1 Lithuanian University of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, Kaunas, Lithuania 2 Lithuanian University of Health Sciences, Department of Family Medicine, Kaunas, Lithuania Summary Introduction. Physical activity is one of the most effective ways to maintain physical and mental health. Appropriate mental activity and good academic achievement are especially important for students, thus it is significant to further investigate whether regular physical activity has a positive effect on students’ academic achievement. Aim. To evaluate physical activity of medical students and to investigate the effect of physical activity on academic achievement of medical students. Methods. We performed an anonymous survey on October 10-18th of 2018 in Lithuanian University of Health Sciences. The survey was presented to 300 LSMU medical students and 170 students have filled the questionnaire (response rate – 57%). Differences between the investigated groups were considered statistically significant when p<0,05. Statistical analysis of data was performed using software package „IBM SPSS Statistics 22”. Results. 31.5% of students engage in regular physical activity, 25.0% of students state that they do not exercise. 27.1% engage in regular physical activity longer than one year. Most common types of sport among medical students are running, gym and individual exercises at home. 41.2% of study participants have noticed an improvement of their academic performance after they started engaging in regular physical activity. 50.0% of students have not observed any significant change of their academic results. However, comparison of academic achievement of physically active and non-active students disclosed a statistically significant difference between these two groups – students who engage in regular physical activity have a significantly (p<0.05) higher average of their grades than those students who do not exercise on regular basis. Conclusion. One third of medical students engage in regular physical activity, others exercise rarely, irregularly or do not exercise at all. Students who engage in regular physical activity have a significantly (p<0.05) higher average of their grades than those students who do not exercise on regular basis. Keywords: physical activity, academic achievements, students

The empirical research of teamwork competency factors and prediction on academic achievement using machine learning for students in Thailand

Introduction. Teamwork competencies are important for achieving the success of education, developing a meaningful and lifelong career, bringing new ideas, helping to solve problems, academic achievement, and building morale. the current problems with teamwork competency factors are still vague and unclear, and lack of predictive data on education. The research objectives were to analyse factors of students’ teamwork competencies, to confirm factors of students’ teamwork competencies, and to predict the effect of teamwork competencies on academic achievement using machine learning. Methods. Participants were students in an advanced professional innovation programme undergoing an empowerment process. They were divided into two groups: 205 students for exploratory factor analysis achieved through stratified random sampling and 418 students for confirmatory factor analysis, correlation analysis, and prediction of academic achievement, also achieved via stratified random sampling. Instruments included a teamwork competency self-assessment digital form, which had item-total correlations between 0.67 and 0.77 and a Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of reliability equal to 0.98. The data were analysed by summary statistics (mean, standard deviation), correlation analysis, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, regression analysis and decision trees. Results. The results showed that teamwork competencies factors included building a team relationship (BTR), participation in team exchanges (PTE), adapting and creating a team atmosphere (ACT), and supporting a team (STE), which explained 65.752% of the total variance. Teamwork competency factors fit the empirical data (chi-square=618.54, df=565, p=0.059, GFI=0.93, AGFI=0.90, RMSEA=0.015), and teamwork competency sub-factors were correlated with the total score by 0.97, 0.94, 0.95 and 0.92, respectively. In addition, the machine learning predicted by regression BTR, PTE, and ACT were predictive of academic achievement, explaining 60.80% of the variance in this variable, and predicted by decision trees ACT and PTE were predictive of academic achievement as well. Practical significance. The novelty created by this research is that innovative product of teamwork competencies factor, that is suitable for a studied and modern context, and prediction of machine learning that will increase empirical strength and create a methodological novelty of empirical research that uses multi-stage, multi-methods and robust validation. The utility of practice, the colleges apply to students for accurate measurement, good academic achievement and leads to reflection and improvement of teamwork for performance efficacy, bringing success to individuals and society.
