Youths within the ages of 18 and 35 years in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana constituted the research population. A sample of 362 youths, comprising both the employed (n = 172) and the unemployed (n = 190), were purposively selected. The employed youths served as a control group … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 8 Mar 2017 · 10,410 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResearcher, Center for Contemporary Arab Studies, Georgetown UniversitySabithulla KhanThis paper aims to provide an overview of the American Muslim giving patterns and specifically also attempts to map American Muslim giving, over the last 10 years, i.e., 2002-2012. It is also an attempt to capture the major shifts, trends and challenges to the Islamic philanthropic sector in the U.S. There are several competing theories about how the giving patterns … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 8 Feb 2017 · 7,745 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiases from Poor Data AnalysesTshepo Matsose, Solly Matshonisa SeeletseNon-statisticians with little knowledge in basic descriptive statistics tend to think that statistics field is limited to the content to which they are exposed. Many of them believe that a statistical package can augment the little Statistics knowledge they have. They often have a tendency to perform their own data analyses and do not even bounce it against Statistics experts … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 10 · 5 Oct 2016 · 7,347 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFrom the Chicago School to Post-sub Cultural Carriage: A Review and Analysis of Contemporary Trends in Youth Culture ResearchMohd. Aslam BhatThe historicity of youth culture studies is much challenging to date exactly. Sociologists however, trace its genesis from Chicago School and then leap to Birmingham’s Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies. Theoretically it was, with the works of post subculturists that youth culture research gained ascendency. Global youth culture posture further revamped the field. This paper constructs a critical dialogue between … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 18 Feb 2016 · 8,525 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Unified Approach for the Shear Buckling Design of Structural Glass Walls with Non-Ideal RestraintsChiara Bedon, Claudio AmadioIn this study, a unified design approach is assessed and proposed for the shear buckling verification of structural glass walls supported by non-ideal restraints. Based on the current trends of practice in buildings, the effect of (i) adhesive joints, (ii) metal frames with interposed adhesive joints or (iii) point mechanical connectors on the actual shear buckling behavior of the examined … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 22 Jan 2016 · 8,292 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Scheme Design of Cloud + End Technology in Demand Side ManagementLeijiao Ge, Xiandong XuDemand Side Management (DSM) plays an important role in Smart Grid.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Brief Review on WIMPs in 331 Electroweak Gauge ModelsP.S. Rodrigues da SilvaIn this study we review the cold dark matter problem in the context of a class of models which are a simple extension of the electroweak standard model, where the gauge symmetry is dictated by the group structure, SU(3)c⊗SU(3)L⊗U(1)X. This model, in different versions, has been able to address many interesting facts not explained by the standard model. It would … …Physics International, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Oct 2015 · 13,044 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProcess Physics: Emergent Unified Dynamical 3-Space, Quantum and Gravity: A ReviewReginald Thomas CahillExperiments have repeatedly revealed the existence of a dynamical structured fractal 3-space, with a speed relative to the Earth of some 500 km sec-1 from a southerly direction. Experiments have ranged from optical light speed anisotropy interferometers to zener diode quantum detectors. This dynamical space has been missing from theories from the beginning of physics. This dynamical space generates a … …Physics International, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 4 Aug 2015 · 8,518 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVitamin D: The Immunologic Role and its Effect on Human PathophysiologyWilliam Whalen, Edward Werner Cook, Nitya G. ChakrabortyThere are several reasons why understanding the role of vitamin D in the immune system is worthy of widespread attention. Our knowledge of the immune system is crucial for understanding human health and disease. New ideas for vitamin D and life style in the twenty-first century build directly on our understanding of immunology-from the development of new immune-based cancer drugs … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 5 May 2015 · 6,985 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRural and Urban Attitudes toward Immigrants in the U.S. Midwest and Great PlainsMiguel Ceballos, Oksana Yakushko, Courtney LyonsRecent immigration has transformed much of the Midwest and Great Plains regions of the United States, affecting its rural and urban areas through dramatic increases in the foreign-born population and in particular Latino immigrant populations. This study examines three theories of prejudice: Perceptions of threat, contact with immigrants and a cosmopolitanism outlook, in predicting rural and urban attitudes toward immigrants … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 7 Jan 2015 · 8,294 accessesView PDFCite
