Psychological Risk Factors among Transgender: The Mediating Role of Body Dissatisfaction between Quality of Life, Suicidal Ideation and Social Interaction Anxiety

Abstract
 Social attitudes, prejudice and stigmas towards transgender community vary around the world. Consequently, the prevalence of suicidal attempts, self-injurious behaviors, and associated psychological factors were very common among them. The current study aimed to examine the association between quality of life, suicidal ideation, social interaction anxiety and body image among trans genders. Two hundred trans genders of age between 18-45 years participated in this study. They were approached by using snow ball sampling technique from different cities of Pakistan. Four instruments, Body Image States Scale (BISS), World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale- (WHOQOL-BREF), Beck Scale for Suicidal Ideation (BSSI), Social Interaction Anxiety (SIA) were used in this research. The results showed no significant difference on demographic variables with regard to body image, social interaction anxiety, quality of life and suicidal ideation (p<0.05). Results of mediation analysis by using Smart-PLS showed that body image significantly mediates the association between quality of life and suicidal ideation (r=0.164, p<0.001) and it also mediates the relationship between quality of life and social interaction anxiety (r=0.184, p<0.001). The findings indicated that this population is at a high risk for psychological comorbidities and life-threatening behaviors. Efforts should be taken to reduce discrimination and psychological risk factors and bring positive attitude towards transgender community.

Honeybees, Apis cerana colony performance in the non-protected and protected beehive methods in relation to climatic factors

Honeybees, Apis cerana is one of the local bee species in Malaysia. Apis cerana plays important role in beekeeping activities, especially in producing honey known as a superfood and helping in pollination activities. However, a low survival rate of Apis cerana in the beehive box was observed because Apis cerana had a high tendency to migrate from the beehive box due to some reasons particularly natural enemies attack and climatic factors. Therefore this study was carried out to determine the effect of protected and non-protected beehive methods on the colony of Apis cerana under different method practices and fluctuated climatic factors. Ten standard beehives boxes with their colonies altogether were divided into two groups, five colonies of bees in the non-protected beehive boxes method while the remaining five protected beehives boxes method. Protected beehive is equipped with several protection techniques to avoid predator and queen of bees running away from the beehives. The Apis cerana colonies were examined, observed, collected and recorded regularly four times per month for one year interval of the sampling period. Data was also collected through the Snow Ball Sampling technique by ground trotting for verification such as pictures of every single comb of the beehives, and the numbers of an individual’s bees calculated using an empirical measuring technique. As a result, there was a significant difference (P<0.05) in the population abundance of bees colony in the protected beehive box as compared to the population abundance of bees colony in non-protected beehive box. Additionally, there was no significant relationship (P>0.05) between the population of Apis cerana with temperature for both methods protected and non-protected beehive boxes except for rainfall in the protected beehives. Beekeepers who face similar problems, particularly in mass rearing of Apis cerana for commercial could use protected beehive boxes since the population abundance of bees and its colonies was successfully developed in the protected beehive practices as climatic factors was also considered. Hopefully, the findings of this study could contribute to a significant increase in income for farmers and subsequently encouraged the apiculture industry in future.
