A retrospective analysis of postpartum fetal head circumference (FHC) and birth weight and its effect on the duration of labour was undertaken. The aim was to assess the predictive value of postpartum FHC versus birth weight in predicting dystocia. A FHC > 37 cm was associated significantly with a prolonged first and second stage of labour. A receiver operator curve (ROC) shows that the sensitivity and specificity of a FHC > 37 cm is as good as a fetal weight > 4.5 kg in predicting dystocia.
Objective: To determine the predictive relation of demographic variables with relational aggression.
Study Design: Cross sectional study.
Place and Duration of Study: Department of Psychology, University of Gujrat, Gujrat Pakistan, from Aug 2017 to Jan 2018.
Methodology: A total of 612 adolescent students were selected with age 12-19 years from diverse academic institutes of Gujrat city. Urdu version of diverse adolescent relational aggression scale was used to measure relational aggression. Neural network analysis was carried out by using SPSS-21.
Result: The findings of this study revealed significant predictive relation of demographic variables (gender, birth order, family system, number of siblings and age) with relational aggression. The most important predictor of relational aggression in teenagers was birth order 0.249 (100%), age 0.246 (98.9%) siblings 0.242 (86.3%), family system 0.166 (66.8%) and gender 123 (49.6) respectively.
Conclusion: Demographic variables are the significant predictor of relational aggression. By managing the effects of these variables, adverse behavior of relational aggression can be controlled in adolescent students
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
