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.
This work is concerned with studying the optimal classical continuous control quaternary vector problem. It is consisted of; the quaternary nonlinear hyperbolic boundary value problem and the cost functional. At first, the weak form of the quaternary nonlinear hyperbolic boundary value problem is obtained. Then under suitable hypotheses, the existence theorem of a unique state quaternary vector solution for the weak form where the classical continuous control quaternary vector is considered known is stated and demonstrated by employing the method of Galerkin and the compactness theorem. In addition, the continuity operator between the state quaternary vector solution of the weak form and the corresponding classical continuous control qua

Show MoreThe aim of this study is to compare the effects of three methods: problem-based learning (PBL), PBL with lecture method, and conventional teaching on self-directed learning skills among physics undergraduates. The actual sample size comprises of 122 students, who were selected randomly from the Physics Department, College of Education in Iraq. In this study, the pre- and post-test were done and the instruments were administered to the students for data collection. The data was analyzed and statistical results rejected null hypothesis of this study. This study revealed that there are no signifigant differences between PBL and PBL with lecture method, thus the PBL without or with lecture method enhances the self-directed learning skills bette
... Show MoreAdvertisements containing images of women represent one of the most controversial topics of the advertising industry and has an impact on people and trends. This study aims to determine the typical mental image of women purveyed through visual advertising in the Arab media. It also aims to find out whether these advertisements portray women positively or negatively, in addition to investigating the reasons for the recent negative portrayal of women in commercials. The study adopted a descriptive-analytical approach to achieve these objectives. The results indicate that advertising designs that carry images of women displayed in the Arab media create strong mental images. Repetition reinforces these images, and they emphasize the concept
... Show MoreThe new media scene reveals that the unprecedented overlap of a number of technical, economic, and political factors has made the new media a very complicated issue; and the focus of specialized and public debates about its impact on traditional means of communication and forms of social media and social relations. Then, the same scene discloses the reality of the relationship between the new and the traditional. These are the axes that will be will be discussed in this study.
By- products of corn starch industry were used to prepare media for propagation the lactic acid bacteria as a natural auxotroph. The by- products used were the corn steep water (S) and gluten extract (G) after a proper treatment to get them ready for media preparation. The results showed that it was possible to replace the peptone and meat extract by gluten extract in MRS medium. The growth was approximately similar to that obtained in standard MRS media. Corn steep water (S) was used as well and the growth enhanced by including Tween – 80 at 1% level. The later media named MZ, which was superior for growing standard and local strains and starters. The MZ medium modified by adding acetate and glacial acetic acid similarly to
... Show MoreBackground: Coronary artery disease remains the main cause of death despite several preventive programs. Epicardial adipose tissue is a visceral fat depot of the heart located along the large coronary arteries and on the surface of ventricles and apex. Intima media thickness is commonly recognized as the initial stage in the development of atherosclerosis. The development of ultrasound machines, advances in echocardiographic devices and high resolution transducers facilitate comprehensive analysis of epicardial fat thickness (EFT) and carotid –intima media thickness (C-IMT).
Aim: To investigate the relationship of echocardiographic epicardial fat thickness (EFT) and carotid –intima media thickness (C-IMT) with the severity of coro
Objectives: The study aims to (1) Assess the parents' efficacy for child healthy weight behavior. (2) Identify the difference in parents’ efficacy for child healthy weight behavior between the groups of parent’s gender, family’s socioeconomic status, child’s gender, and child’s birth order, (3) Find out the relationship between parents’ age, child’s age, child’s body mass index, family’s socioeconomic status, the number of children in the family and parents’ efficacy for child healthy weight behavior.
