Effect of Obesity and Socioeconomic Status on Adolescents' High School Students' Intelligence Quotient in Baghdad City
...Show More Authors

Objective(s): To determine the effect of obesity and socioeconomic status upon adolescents' high school students' intelligence quotient in Baghdad City. Methodology: A descriptive design is carried throughout the study to determine the effect of obesity and socioeconomic status on adolescents' high schools students' intelligence quotient in Baghdad City for the period of January 7th 2017 to May 29th 2017. A non-probability, purposive sample, of (120) high school students, is selected. The sample is comprised of (12) students from 7th grade, (26) students from 8 th grade, (14) students from 9th grade, (35) students from 10th grade, (13) students from 11th grade, and (20) students from 12th grade. It is consisted of (47) males and (73) females; and age of (11-19) years old. A questionnaire has been constructed throughout the following procedures in order to achieve the aims of the study through review of relevant literatures and consultation from a panel of experts. The questionnaire is comprised of (50) item that measure the high school students' intelligence quotient. The intelligence quotient is measured as poor (50-116.6), fair (116.7- 183.3), and good (183.4-250). A socioeconomic status scale is developed to measure the students' socioeconomic status as high (26-29), moderate (16- 25), and low (5-10). A body max index (BMI) is measured to determine the students' obesity as grade I, grade II and grade III. Content validity of the questionnaire is determined through panel of experts and the internal consistency reliability is determined for the study questionnaire with a split-half technique Cronbach alpha correlation coefficient is computed for such reliability. Findings indicate that the correlation coefficient is (r=0.87) which is considered adequate for the reliability of the questionnaire as measure for the phenomenon underlying the study. Data are collected through the use of the study instrument and the interview technique as means for data collection for the period of February 21st 2017 to March 20th 2017. Data are analyzed through the application of the descriptive data analysis approach which includes frequency, percent and total score. Results: Middle age and Female students experience low level of intelligence quotient more than others. Results of the study reveal that students’ obesity and socioeconomic status affect their scores of intelligence quotient. The study reveals that obesity can dramatically influence students' intelligence quotient. Students with low and moderate socioeconomic status have experienced low scores of intelligence quotient. Recommendations: The study recommends that education program can be designed and implemented to parents of obese students in order to increase their awareness about the effect of obesity on students' intelligence quotient. Special courses can be presented to obese students and those at the risk of obesity by which weight gain is avoided and/or treated. Further research can be conducted on large sample size with different characteristics.

Abstract

The open budget means everyone in the society can get information about the government budget in order to watch the governmental works. The aim of the research is to study the concepts of open budget, its advantage, limitations, role of supporting the transparency and questioning the administrative and financial corruption. Thus reflects positively on the national economy by providing governmental information to all users whether they are individuals or belong to the political class, or any other governmental or nongovernmental organizations which are interested in these information.

In order to achieve the objectives of the research aims, we make questionnaire to see aca

The Use of Auto-Regressive Distributed Lag Method in Investigating The Impact of Interest Rate on Foreign Direct Investment in Yemen for the Period 1990-2018
...Show More Authors

 Foreign direct investment has seen increasing interest worldwide, especially in developing economies. However, statistics have shown that Yemen received fluctuating FDI inflows during the period under study. Against this background, this research seeks to determine the relationship and impact of interest rates on FDI flows. The study also found other determinants that greatly affected FDI inflows in Yemen for the period 1990-2018. Study data collected from the World Bank and International Monetary Fund databases. It also ensured that the time series were made balanced and interconnected, and then the Auto Regressive Distributed Lag method used in the analysis. The results showed that the interest rates and

Numerical investigation on heat transfer enhancement and turbulent flow characteristics in a high aspect ratio rectangular duct roughened by intersecting ribs with inclined ribs
...Show More Authors

In this study, the effect of intersecting ribs with inclined ribs on the heat transfer and flow characteristics of a high aspect ratio duct has been numerically investigated. The Relative roughness pitch (P/e) is 10 and the Reynolds number range from 35,700 to 72,800. ANSYS (Fluent-Workbench 18.0) software has been utilized to solve the Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations with the Standard k-ε turbulence model. Three ribbed models have been used in this study. Model 1 which is a just inclined ribs, Model 2 which has a single longitudinal rib at the center with inclined ribs and Model 3 which has two longitudinal ribs at the sides. The results showed that the heat transfer rate has been enhanced when the int

Types of the Fiber Glass-Mat on Fatigue Characteristic of Composite Materials at Constant Fiber Volume Fraction: Experimental Determination
...Show More Authors

The aim of this work is to study the influence of the type of fiber glass –mat on fatigue behavior of composite material which is manufactured from polyester and E-glass (woven roving, chopped strand mat (CSM)) as a laminate with a constant fiber volume fraction (VF) of 33%. The results showed that the laminates reinforced with E-glass (woven roving) [0/90, ±45.0/90] and [0/90, CSM, 0/90] have lower fatigue strength than the laminates reinforced with E-glass [0/90]3,[CSM]3 and [CSM, 0/90, CSM]  although they had different tensile strength; the best laminate was [0/90]3 .

Artificial Intelligence Technology in the Field of Modern Forensic Evidence: Brain Fingerprinting as a Model
...Show More Authors

Brain Fingerprinting (BF) is one of the modern technologies that rely on artificial intelligence in the field of criminal evidence law. Brain information can be obtained accurately and reliably in criminal procedures without resorting to complex and multiple procedures or questions. It is not embarrassing for a person or even violates his human dignity, as well as gives immediate and accurate results. BF is considered one of the advanced techniques related to neuroscientific evidence that relies heavily on artificial intelligence, through which it is possible to recognize whether the suspect or criminal has information about the crime or not. This is done through Magnetic Resonance Imaging (EEG) of the brain and examining
