 Abstract

The Communicate Bond Belong (CBB) theory states that much everyday talk occurs in episodes. CBB theory specifies qualifying criteria for an episode. Frequently undertaking communication episodes is seen as realizing relational satisfaction. Self-disclosure is a type of episode, and literature specifies content of a particular nature that realizes liking. This study investigates the extent to which everyday talk occurs in episodes, and the extent to which self-disclosure is an episode of social interaction. The study is conducted using mixed methods. Data collection adopts diary record as the tool. Data analysis is based on frequencies and interpretation. Findings suggest that appropriate content is related to relational satisfaction from self-disclosure.

Abstract : Digitalization is the talk of the day. In digitalization, digital payment plays very important role because of its uses to the country as well as to its individuals. Digital payment has provided an opportunity for India to empower its people and make them to use it and overcome the outdated banking system. RBI has taken diverse steps to persuade the people to opt for digital payment and improve the financial inclusion by using digital platforms for payment. At this juncture, it has become essential to understand and review the present status of digital payment. This study has analyzed present status of different digital payments by using secondary data and found that there is a sharp increase in use of digital modes in the last five years. But, still cash play a major role due to lack of proper infrastructure and technical challenges which needs to be addressed immediately. The study is intended to seek the attention of policy makers so that the benefit of digitalization reaches everyone.

 Abstract

Cold-formed steel columns are increasingly applied in engineering recently. This study focusses on the performance evaluation of two limbed built-up cold-formed steel (CFS) columns under lateral loading. Specimens of built-up columns were fabricated into two limbed and three limbed rectangular columns. Two nonlinear finite element (FE) models were modelled for two limbed and three limbed columns each and its behaviour under lateral loading was observed. Tests were conducted for two different values of slenderness. Later hot rolled steel columns were modelled using ISMB100 with different slendernesses. The load carrying capacity of cold form steel (CFS) columns were compared with hot rolled steel (HRS) columns.

 Abstract

The prime purpose of the paper was to explore the status of Utilization of Community Resources in the teaching of sociology at pre- university level in Bagalkote district. To find out the �The Utilization of Community Resources in the teaching of sociology at pre- university level� a Questionnaire was developed by researcher and administered. Taking cognizance of the nature of sample, �Incidental sampling technique? was used. On the other hand, sample was Incidental and on the other hand it was purposive as it served the purpose of the study. Government, Aided and unaided pre- university colleges were considered for data collection. Even though all educationists have stressed the need for revitalizing the teaching of sociology, in actual practice, it is found that there are hardly any attempts by the sociology lecturers in this context, by linking college and community. It also helps the lecturers to Utilize Community Resources in sociology teaching at pre- university level and find out their effect on students learning.

 Abstract

This study investigates the executive functions of adolescent girls, evaluated by Behaviour Rating Inventory of Executive Function-Self Report Version (BRIEF-SR), and the effect of yogic intervention of the adolescent girls� executive function skills. We evaluated 50 adolescent girls, between the ages of 12 and 15 years, with control diagnosed of any physical health disorders or neurological disorders, any medication or treatment which alters the functions of the nervous system. Results of the paired-samples t-test show that mean Global Executive Composite (GEC) differs before Yogic Intervention (M = 127.94, SD = 11.75) and after yogic intervention (M 95.58, SD = 12.15) at the .05 level of significance (t = 23.91, df = 49, n = 50, p< .01, 95% CI for mean difference 29.64 to 35.08, r = .68). On average Global Executive Composite (GEC) was about 5.44 points lower after yogic intervention. It shows that Yogic intervention helps adolescent girls in removing of obstacles that hamper the executive functioning of our systems and improves the perspective of their life. These results add to prior research findings which indicated that diverse activities have been shown to improve girls executive functions like computerized training, aerobics, martial arts, and school curricula. In the sequence we found yogic intervention programme contributes to the development of adolescents and additionally support the hypothesis that yogic intervention programme plays a significant role in developing executive functioning skills.

 Abstract

Shielding is a most effective Electromagnetic protection method. Shielding Effectiveness(SE) is the degree of isolation provided by a shield from electromagnetic radiations. When the distance between the radiation source and the shield is more than ?/2? it is considered as in the far field shielding region and if less, it is in the near field shielding region. Electromagnetic plane wave theory is applicable in the far field and the theory of dipoles is applied in the near field. Metals are good conductors which can absorb, reflect and transmit electromagnetic interferences. All metals and metallic compounds including brass, copper, aluminium, silver, steel etc are used for quality shielding materials. Plastics embedded with thin metal foils are also used. The aim of the study is to investigate the shielding effectiveness of different materials which are easily available and affordable to the common public. The purpose is to provide suitable roofing solutions to those forced to live near the cell towers. Our experiments found the materials like Gi and Aluminium sheets are easily available and demand lower price, found comparatively better performed when properly grounded. Concretes with a thin Aluminium mesh of 10cm x 10cm length and breadth attached as a top layer will give enough protection and safe guard the residents when properly grounded.
