The aim of the study was to (i) find out the difference in the level of job involvement and role conflict among government and private employees; and (ii) find out the difference in the level of Job Involvement and Role conflict among male and female employees. (2) find out the difference in the level of Job Involvement and Role conflict among male and female employees. Design: The study was done on 120 employees out of which 60 are government employees and 60 are private employees. The scale of role conflict developed by Kopelman, Greenhaus and Connoly (1983) (Work Conflict, Family Conflict and Inter Role Conflict) and Job Involvement Scale developed by Ashok Pratap Singh (1997) were used for assessment. The result indicates that there is no significant difference between the government and private employees with regard to role conflict and job involvement. Whereas there is a significant difference in the Work Conflict, Family Conflict and Inter role Conflict between them. The result also indicates that there is no gender difference with regard to Job involvement and Role Conflict except the Work Conflict. Further there is significant difference in the level of Work Conflict of Male and Female Employees. Female employees were experiencing less Work Conflict than male employees.Keywords

Nursing is one among the Health Education Programmes. All of the social and economic forces, the scientific and the technology advances have influenced and continue to influence nursing as they have all spheres of human activity. The changing emphasis in medical practice and health care by others to self-care; increased use of complicated apparatus and many new drugs; the introduction of workers with such varied preparation and skills into the nursing scene; the diversity and the number of types of nursing educational programmes; the movement from apprenticeship type programmes in hospitals to educational institutions-all of these point up the urgent need for strong leadership in nursing (Heidgerken, 2000). In addition to contending with Nursing Students exams, grades, long hours of studying, work, family and other personal commitments, students also are faced with the challenges of clinical practice. Clinical Practice has been identified as one of the most anxiety producing components in nursing programmes. Lack of experience, fear of making mistakes, difficult patients, discomfort at being evaluated by faculty members, worrying about giving patients the wrong information or medication and concern about possibly harming a patient are just a few of the stressors for the beginning student nurse (Sharif & Masoumi, 2005). In this research 400 B.Sc. Nursing Students from Fr. Muller's Nursing College and Dr. M. V. Shetty College of Nursing, Mangalore, Karnataka were selected by Purposive Sampling. They were assessed using Case study Schedule (Hemalatha & Hithakshi, 2008), State Trait Anger Expression Inventory (STAXI) (Speilberger, 1988) and WHO General Well-being Index (1998). The entire sample was divided into 13 batches of 30 to 32 subjects in each batch. Psychological Intervention called Positive Therapy (Hemalatha, 2004) was given to the subjects for 9 sessions, each session lasting for about one hour, over a period of 3 weeks on alternate days. After 3 weeks the entire subjects were reassessed using Case Study Reassessment Schedule, State Trait Anger Expression Inventory and WHO General Well-being Index. Follow-up was done after 6 months. After Positive Therapy, Anger was reduced significantly and General Well-being was enhanced. There was statistically significant difference in anger and general well-being before, after and follow-up. Thus Positive Therapy was effective in the management of Anger and Enhancement of General Well-being.Keywords

A study was undertaken to evaluate the retention (RF and RM) and separation (ΔRF, RαF , α and RS) of buprofezin (B), flubendiamide (F) and imidacloprid (I) using n-hexane-acetone (6.5 : 3.5 v/v) in the case of NPHPTLC and methanol-water (8 : 2 v/v) for RP-HPTLC as mobile phase. The study revealed that increasing the acetone content in NP-HPTLC and decreasing the water content in RP-HPTLC resulted in high resolution with increase in RF values for B, F and I. ΔRF > 0.04 and RS > 1.5 were achieved for all pairs of compounds (ΔRF(B–F) = 0.35, ΔRF(F–I) = 0.19, ΔRF(B–I) = 0.54, RS(B–F) = 4.12, RS(F–I) = 7.34, RS(B–I) = 2.02 using NP-HPTLC; ΔRF(F–B) = 0.23, ΔRF(I–F) = 0.26, ΔRF(I–B) = 0.49, RS(F–B) = 2.63, RS(I–F) = 2.97, RS(I–B) = 5.92 using RP-HPTLC). Imidacloprid was adsorbed strongly on NP-HPTLC layer and buprofezin on RP-HPTLC layer, as indicated by their high RM values. The maximum absorption of UV for B, F and I was found to be 252, 242 and 276 nm respectively. Stability analysis indicated that these compounds were stable up to 6 h in methanol and on the plates (NP-HPTLC and RPHPTLC layers). This protocol is useful for toxicologists to detect a mixture of these insecticides in forensic as well as environmental samples.Keywords
