“…A study contends that the two communities fought several battles over the disputed land which led to loss of lives and destruction of properties. It further explained that, the effect of the conflict was not felt by the feuding communities alone, but it also had a spill-over effect on other neighbouring communities [12]. To protect precious lives and property, governments spend a lot of money providing and maintaining security, law and order in conflict areas.…”

The objective of the study was to examine the developmental implications of chieftaincy disputes in the Juaso traditional area of Ghana. Qualitatively, an interpretive research paradigm was adopted for the study. Purposive, Snowballing, Convenient, and Maximal Variation Strategy techniques were employed to select twelve ( 12) respondents for the study. Chiefs and the queen mother in the community who are rich of information as far as chieftaincy dispute in Juaso is concerned were purposively sampled. Snowballing and Maximal Variation Strategy were employed to sample sub-chiefs, royals, reverend ministers, natives and dwellers for the study. The two (2) main instruments used for data collection were semi-structured interview and observation. The data were analysed into different categories and subsequently developed into themes by making use of an inductive data analysis. Themes and categories were then used to present the research findings based on the research question. The study indicated in Akan adage that ''bɔɔla so gya, ani no adum nanso na aseɛ no asɔ kɔɔ'' to wit, the fire on the refuse dump may appear to be off at the surface but beneath it may be hot coals ready to explode at the least aeration. This situation does not promote peaceful coexistence that can propel development. Development is the shared responsibility of all. It can be initiated by the Central Government through the District Assemblies, traditional leaders of communities, individual members of communities, non-governmental organizations and foreign bodies. It is recommended that the role of Government (the state) is very crucial in the management, resolution, transformation and peace building. As such, the government should be seen as an important stakeholder in the resolution of the conflict. Government should resource and empower third party mediation efforts by the Committee of Eminent Chiefs to resolve the cultural aspect of the dispute while the state institutions and Civil Society Organizations are also resourced and empowered to resolve the criminal, social, economic and other aspects. Government must build the trust of the entire community without taken sides in all these strategies.

Objective (s):The present study aimed to examine a method focused on reacting based on the hidden meanings of overt behaviors and its effect on marriage adaptability. Methods: This was a quasi-experimental study. Participants were sixty clients referred to psychological and counseling centers in Karaj, Iran with marital adjustment problems. They were selected by convenience sampling method and randomly assigned into two groups of fifteen pairs: experimental and control groups. The Spanier Dyadic Adjustment Scale (DAS), was used to collect information about research variables. Couples in the experimental group received a combination of self-monitoring and self-regulatory therapy for ten sessions to modify their communication actions. The control group only received the usual care. Results:The results showed that compared to the control group, marital adaptability significantly improved in the experimental group at post-treatment and at two-months follow-up assessments (p<0.05). Conclusion:The findings suggest that method of reacting based on the hidden meanings of overt behaviors using the model of self-monitoring and self-regulation could be effective.
