Postgraduate Students\u27 Perception Towards the Use of ICT in Research in Ghanaian Public Universities

The use of ICT in research has become significant among postgraduate students. However, available literature shows that there is little research on the perception and adoption of this technology in developing countries. This problem has created gap in the existing literature. This, therefore, make it necessary to find out more about the perceptions of postgraduate students on the use of ICT in research. The paper intents to discuss these. The paper adopted the survey methodology by using the stratified and convenience sampling techniques to select 346 postgraduate students from University of Ghana and University of Cape Coast to participate in the study. Incorporating the Technology Acceptance Model 3 (TAM3), this study revealed the following: Most postgraduate students perceive the use of ICT applications in research as very important. Again, majority of them intimated that ICT facilities that their institutions provided met their research needs. The findings further indicated that students accessed ICT applications for quick access to information, convenience of access to information, time saving, and currency of information accessed. This paper strongly recommends that public universities in Ghana should maintain the already existing ICT facilities. However, they should ensure that all ICT facilities are monitored and maintained

Predictors of Psychological Distress in Low Income Mothers

Purpose: Worldwide at least 10% women experience psychological distress, primarily depression, during the postpartum period. This rate is three to four folders higher for low-income women. The purpose of this study is to explore the extent to which social determinants of health factors and allostatic load (a biological measure of chronic stress) predict psychological distress in low-income pregnant women over the first postpartum year. Methods: We conducted a secondary data analysis using the Child Community Health Research Network (CCHN) dataset obtained via the National Institute of Child and Human Development. Our sample was 2510 mothers, mean age 25.6. The psychological distress outcome variables were perceived stress, depression, and anxiety symptoms over the first year of postpartum. Our predictors were social determinates of health factors (e.g., demographic factors, maternal hardship, percent poverty level, interpersonal violence, food security) and allostatic load. We used logistic regression models to determine odd ratios for each individual predictor on each outcome of psychological distress over the first year postpartum. Results: Interpersonal violence and perceived food insecurity were significant risk factors of stress, depression and anxiety symptoms over the first year postpartum. Other significant risk factors of psychological distress symptoms at individual time points included ethnicity, low poverty level, low education attainment, and public insurance status.Conclusions: This is one of the first studies to report risk factors for maternal psychological distress over the first year postpartum. The significance of risk factors for psychological distress change over time. These results indicate both modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors as potential targets for further research.Bachelor of Scienc

[(4-Bromo­phen­yl)(2-pyridyl­methyl­idene)amine-κ2 N,N′]bis­(1,1,1,5,5,5-hexa­fluoro­pentane-2,4-dionato-κ2 O,O′)cobalt(II)

In the title complex, [Co(C5HF6O2)2(C12H9BrN2)], the CoII atom exhibits a pseudo-octa­hedral coordination geometry, comprising two N-donor atoms from a bidentate chelate (4-bromo­phen­yl)(2-pyridyl­methyl­idene)amine (ppaBr) ligand [Co—N = 2.098 (2) and 2.209 (2) Å] and four O-donor atoms from two bidentate chelate 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexa­fluoro­pentane-2,4-dionate (hfac) ligands [Co—O range = 2.0452 (19)–2.0796 (19) Å]. The packing of the structure involves weak π–π inter­actions between the pyridyl and benzene rings of neighbouring ppaBr ligands [centroid–centroid distance = 3.928 (2) Å] and inter­actions between the Br atom on the ppaBr ligand and the hfac ligand [Br⋯C = 3.531 (2) Å]
