Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study using a questionnaire electronically sent to all ED consultants from five major government hospitals in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The survey examined the consultants' beliefs and perception of FPDR, legalities, policies and the effects and outcomes of FPDR on the patient, family, and themselves. Results: The survey received 172 responses, 55.0% were 36–45 years old and 144 (83.7%) were men. Most respondents (91.36%) had experienced FPDR. Less than half (40.1%) believed that FPDR is beneficial to the patient, and 58.7% believed that FPDR could cause difficulties for the resuscitation team. A written policy for FPDR was preferred by 42% of respondents. Significantly more respondents 36-45 years old recommend allowing FPDR compared to other age groups, and significantly more male consultants in this age group believe there is a positive outcome of FPDR. Conclusion: The attitude and perception of emergency consultants towards the practice of FPDR was less positive than expected. Many consultants did not favor the advantages of FPDR, and were worried about negative outcomes, potential medico-legal repercussions, and the unpleasant experience for the family members, especially female consultants. However, a larger proportion of consultants nevertheless recommend FPDR. The ability of ED doctors to manage FPDR and their understanding of the benefits of FPDR needs to be strengthened.","PeriodicalId":13763,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Applied Science and Engineering Research","volume":"41 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80771268","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study focused on three types of skin-lightening creams, namely Fair & Lovely, Rose, and Diana, to estimate their absorption percentages. In general, the results showed that the relationship between the absorbance rate of skin lightening creams and the wavelength is an inverse relationship, where the absorbance rate decreases with the increase in wavelength. For samples treated with ferment only for skin-lightening creams, the cream with the highest absorption value was Fair & Lovely cream, and the lowest absorption value was Rose cream. In addition, for untreated cream samples, Rose cream had the highest absorption, while Fair & Lovely cream recorded the lowest absorption value. In addition, the samples of creams to which olive oil was added only, without exposure to any other factors, had almost the same absorbance value. Moreover, the samples of creams that were exposed to sunlight varied in their absorbance values, as Rose cream recorded the highest absorption value and Fair & Lovely cream had the lowest absorption value. In the samples of creams that were exposed to X-rays, the results showed that the Diana cream sample and the Rose cream sample had the same pattern and behavior in absorbance.UV spectroscopy (Genesys 10S UV-Vis spectrophotometer) was used.","PeriodicalId":13763,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Applied Science and Engineering Research","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79143368","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Extant literature show stereotypical gender roles in politics and diverse professional circles that mostly indicate women as subservient and dependent on men and men as chauvinists. What remains uncertain is the level with which Christian communities understand and interpret biblical gender roles and appropriate them. This study investigates select Christian sects in Jos to determine the depiction and assigning of gender roles within their communities and ascertain how societal and biblical values and beliefs determine how the female gender is particularly perceived and treated in the communities. A quasi-experimental and survey approach is adopted using interviews, questionnaires and observations amongst the clergy and laity of diverse Christian sects to elicit information on gender roles in Christian communities and the data subjected to critical discourse analysis from the Discourse Historical Approach of Ruth Wodak. The study offers profound insight into how women roles are constructed and deconstructed in religious hierarchy on the basis of sameness and the construction of differences and exclusion.","PeriodicalId":13763,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Applied Science and Engineering Research","volume":"134 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77281320","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Learning science is intertwined with various experiences, which consequently strengthen the formation of a science concept, thereby increasing students' performance in school. Thus, this paper sought to explore the lived experiences of senior high school students in learning science. Based on this concept, the researchers employed the phenomenological technique of qualitative methodologies to collect complex data regarding students' experiences in science subjects in a blended learning environment and to grasp the phenomenon from their perspective. The study revealed four distinct themes in the students' lives: (1) varied experiences of students in learning the science subject during the pandemic, (2) challenges encountered, (3) coping strategies employed, and (4) resources needed in learning science. Based on the findings, the student's learning experiences were affected by the academic experience, motivation, preparedness, and support. The difficulties encountered by learners in learning science subjects during the new normal can be classified as personal, social, mental, and academic difficulties caused by the abrupt transition from face-to-face to blended learning. Teachers and parents are urged to assist the students, and educational resources must be well prepared.
