The childhood stage is considered the most important stage of all the stages through
the human being’s life. In this stage the human being will be more affected by the various
factors that surround him/her. The first five years of his/her life leave a great impact not only
on the human being personality, but also on his/her whole life. Therefore, it is worthwhile tobe concerned with and focus at the raising up and the teaching of the child during the
childhood stage.
The mission of raising up children in this era - the era of globalization and information
bursting or news flooding – has become a very difficult or even an impossible mission.
Furthermore, not only in the Arabic world, but also all over the world, this era has become a
depressing and a disappointing era to many serious parents and teachers, who seek the fact
and care about both their children’s benefit and the benefit of those who raise them up.
Children are seen to be more accepting to and more connecting with the building up of
civilization. The parent’s attentiveness and the level of their educational maturity will define
the level of family evolution and its role in affecting the child’s personality.
Eventually, all these matters go back to the shortage in the environmental attentiveness
and its relation to the health of the human beings. All these leads to the problem discussed in
this research which is the revealing of the attentiveness by the problem of technological media
poisoning of the children’s parents and their teachers.
The aim of this research is to be acquainted with:
The attentiveness of the technological media poisoning in the members of the sample.
The attentiveness of the technological media poisoning in the kindergarten teachers.
The differences in the attentiveness of the technological media poisoning.
between the kindergarten children’s parents and the children’s teacher.
This research is limited the children’s parents and teachers of the kindergartens in
Baghdad for the academic year 2012-2013.
In order to achieve the goal of this research, the researcher has performed a scale of the
attentiveness of the technological media poisoning according to the scientific steps in the
construction of the psychological scales.
To approve the truth of the scale to be introduced to a number of experts. After
straightening some of the scale items, (33) the of the scale has been approved.
Moreover, the researcher uses statistical analysis for the items by calculating the
distinctive power, which proves that all the items of the scale are distinctive and statistically
significant. The researcher tries to find out the relation between the degree of the item and the
total degree.
The validity of the scale has been approved by repeating the test. The validity factor is
(0.86), which proves that the validity factor is reliable. In the application of the Falkronbach
formula, it has been found that the validity factor is (0.93). This proves that the validity factor
is reliable.
The scale has been applied on (600) members of the sample, whichcontains randomly
chosen children’s parents and kindergarten teachers.
The result of the research are as follows:
All the members of the sample have attentiveness of the technological media poisoning.
The children’s parents have attentiveness of the technological media poisoning.
The kindergarten teachers have attentiveness of the technological media poisoning.
There are differences in attentiveness between all the members of the sample to the
benefit of the mothers side.
The researcher has introduced a number of recommendations and suggestions, which
are going to be discussed later.
Abiotic stress-induced genes may lead to understand the response of plants and adaptability to salinity and drought stresses. Differential display reverse transcriptase – polymerase chain reaction (DDRT-PCR) was used to investigate the differences in gene expression between drought- and salinity-stressed plantlets of Ruta graveolens. Direct and stepwise exposures to drought- or salt-responsive genes were screened in R. graveolens plantlets using the DDRT technique. Gene expression was investigated both in the control and in the salt or drought-stressed plantlets and differential banding patterns with different molecular sizes were observed using the primers OPA-01 (646,770 and 983 pb), OPA-08 (593 and 988 pb), OPA-11 (674 and 831 pb

In this paper a new method is proposed to perform the N-Radon orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), which are equivalent to 4-quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM), 16-QAM, 64-QAM, 256-QAM, ... etc. in spectral efficiency. This non conventional method is proposed in order to reduce the constellation energy and increase spectral efficiency. The proposed method gives a significant improvement in Bit Error Rate performance, and keeps bandwidth efficiency and spectrum shape as good as conventional Fast Fourier Transform based OFDM. The new structure was tested and compared with conventional OFDM for Additive White Gaussian Noise, flat, and multi-path selective fading channels. Simulation tests were generated for different channels

Background: The protective roles of vitamin C and total proteins in gingival inflammation were reported by several studies. The aim of this study was to measure the concentration of salivary vitamin C, total protein and their relation to gingival health among dental students. Materials and methods: The sample consisted of 67 dental students (33 males and 34 females) from College of Dentistry, University of Baghdad. Sillness and Löe (1964) was used for recording of dental plaque, while the gingival index (GI) was measured according to Löe and Sillness criteria (1963). Stimulated salivary samples were collected and chemically analyzed in Poisoning Center/Surgical Specialty Hospital by using colorimetric method to measure the salivary v

Still, finding an equilibrium between these new tools alongside with traditional methods of teaching is a menace which educational institutes needs to solve. This paper proposes a structure that would help the ease with which to include immersive technologies within design education, keeping in mind the solid points of more conventional pedagogical methods. Based on a survey of interior design programs, this research highlights the potential for VR, AR and MR in student engagement, creativity skills and professional practices. The results suggest that adoption of an im

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease with polymorphic expression. B cells have an essential contribution in immune system activation via the production of different cytokines and functioning as potent antigen-presenting cells. Therefore, a drug that particularly targets B cells may represent an ideal therapeutic approach for SLE. Rituximab (RTX), an anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody causing transient B-cell depletion, has been used to manage SLE. This study aims to assess Rituximab effects on lupus nephritis (LN) patients when added to conventional immunosuppressants. Twenty four patients, 15-32 years old, with class III/IV/V LN were involved in this study. All were on steroids before lupus nephritis occurrence. They were

Background: Water-pipe can be defined as a single or multi stemmed device that used to vaporize and smoke flavored tobacco whose smoke is passed via water vase before inhalation. Water-pipe smokers are at risk of exposure to many toxic chemicals that are not filtered by water, as well as risk of infectious diseases when the mouth piece of the water-pipe is shared. This study was carried out to investigate the effect of water pipe on the oral health. Materials and Methods: Sixty persons were included in this study aged between 22 and 23 years. Forty persons were coffee shop workers for at least five years, half of them were water-pipe smokers (active smokers) and the other weren’t smokers (passive smoker), the last group was the co

Abstract: The aim of the present work is to measure radon concentration in wood. Solid state nuclear track detectors of type CR – 39 was used as measurement device. Eight different samples of imported and local wood were collected from markets. Samples were grinded, dried in order to measure radon concentrations in it. Cylindrical diffusion tube was used as detection technique. Results show that the higher concentration was in Iraqi sample 1 which recorded (14.02 ± 0.9) Bq / m3, while the less was in Emirates Sample which recorded (5.35 ± 1.2) Bq / m3. From the present work, all wood samples were with lowest concentrations of radon gas than other building materials.
