Bachelor Thesis from the year 2022 in the subject Sociology - Children and Youth, grade: Final Year, Osun State University (Global Affairs and Sustainable Development Institute), course: Sociology, language: English, abstract: Drug misuse among youths creates harm to social and biological lifestyles, yet affects legitimate economic activities in society. In spite of the fact that poly-drug use and illegal use of drug is a crime, many youths still indulged in it due to the merriment moment they derive from it. In the light of these, some selected youth in Ede, Osun State made it known to the researcher that they consume drugs to reason well or meditate and to eliminate phobia. Not only that, but illicit drugs use among youths has ravaged Nigeria. The social and biological implications of drugs prevailing in the area and especially the knowledge and attitude to drug usage, the types of drugs being consumed, drug use pattern and evolving risk behaviour and factors influencing the usage of drugs among youth, thus seem worth of exploration. It is on this basis that this study examined the social and biological implication of drug usage among youths in Ede, Osun State. A questionnaire was the main instrument adopted to collect data for the study. A multistage sampling technique was adopted to reach the respondents as a result of which 200 residents of Ede at these selected communities: Orita fogo, Sagba joint, Abogunde Joint, Orita Akala, Atapara joint, Sabo agbongbe, Oke Obada joint, Owode-Ede joint, Laoye joint, Agate, Joint and Isibo Joint in Osun State were involved in the study. At the end of data collection, 200 copies of the questionnaire were retrieved and treated for data analysis. The data generated were analysed and interpreted with the aid of tabular distribution of respondents and simple frequency with percentage.

Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2016 in the subject Business economics - Marketing, Corporate Communication, CRM, Market Research, Social Media, grade: A, Institute of Computers and Business Management –School of Business Excellence, language: English, abstract: In today’s life mobile phone usage has become an important necessity of our life. The cell phone industry is one of the fastest-growing ones besides the Internet. Cell phones have gone through a huge change and the market has expanded globally. Cell phone users today use cell phones for more than just talking; the mobile services consumer wireless usage study found that 56 percent of customers used their cell phones as cameras, clocks, calendars, music players, and other non-talk functions. The purpose of this study is to understand the Mobile usage behavior by young customers in India. India is currently the world’s second-largest telecommunications market and has registered strong growth in the past decade and a half. The Indian mobile economy is growing rapidly and will contribute substantially to India’s gross domestic product (GDP), according to a report prepared by the GSM Association (GSMA) in collaboration with the Boston Consulting Group (BCG). The cell phone industry is in the Mature Life Cycle Stage, where nearly all potential customers are already users of the industry’s product.

The Managed Body productively complicates ‘menstrual hygiene management’ (MHM)—a growing social movement to support menstruating girls in the Global South. Bobel offers an invested critique of the complicated discourses of MHM including its conceptual and practical links with the Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) development sector, human rights and ‘the girling of development.’ Drawing on analysis of in-depth interviews, participant observations and the digital materials of NGOs and social businesses, Bobel shows how MHM frames problems and solutions to capture attention and direct resources to this highly-tabooed topic. She asserts that MHM organizations often inadvertently rely upon weak evidence and spectacularized representations to make the claim of a ‘hygienic crisis’ that authorizes rescue. And, she argues, the largely product-based solutions that follow fail to challenge the social construction of the menstrual body as dirty and in need of concealment. While cast as fundamental to preserving girls’ dignity, MHM prioritizes ‘technological fixes’ that teach girls to discipline their developing bodies vis a vis consumer culture, a move that actually accommodates more than it resists the core problem of menstrual stigma.

However, in today's world, TK and its practitioners are increasingly underrpresented or under-utilized. Further, while the applicability of TK to human and environmental welfare is well-recognized, collated information on how TK contributes to different sectors is not easily accessible. --

Most of the academic literature on violence in Nigeria is qualitative. It rarely relies on quantitative data because police crime statistics are not reliable, or not available, or not even published. Moreover, the training of Nigerian social scientists often focuses on qualitative, cultural, and political issues. There is thus a need to bridge the qualitative and quantitative approaches of conflict studies. This book represents an innovation and fills a gap in this regard. It is the first to introduce a discussion on such issues in a coherent manner, relying on a database that fills the lacunae in data from the security forces. The authors underline the necessity of a trend analysis to decipher the patterns and the complexity of violence in very different fields: from oil production to cattle breeding, radical Islam to motor accidents, land conflicts to witchcraft, and so on. In addition, they argue for empirical investigation and a complementary approach using both qualitative and quantitative data. The book is therefore organized into two parts, with a focus first on statistical studies, then on fieldwork.
