Accountability In The Church, Professor Ben C Osisioma

Prof Ben Chuka Osisioma

Traditionally, accountability is the obligation to give a reckoning or explanation for one’s actions and responsibilities to a higher authority.

In the church setting accountability involves managing the resources God has entrusted us with, organising for service and mission, and providing programmes to carry out the church’s mandate.

Mental Chronometry Measured By Electromyography In Cognitive Experiments Demanding Movement For Response Elicitation, Mohammad Abdolvahab, Miguel Moreno, Nigel Stepp, Daniela Vaz, Michael Turvey

Mohammad Abdolvahab

The classical button pressing in reaction time experiments has shown to be limited in revealing underlying mental chronometry of cognitive processes. We inquired if it would be possible to unfold the timing of muscle activations in preparation to execute a movement (the so called anticipatory postural adjustments) in response to a cognitive demand in a couple of experiments. We asked our participants to stand in front of a computer screen and respond by raising their arm to a horizontal position. We recorded electromyographic activity of right and left biceps femoris, erector spinae and deltoid together with kinematic angular movement of …

Umakant Mishra

Although we are born and brought up in society, we are sometimes hurt by the offensive behavior of some people in our family and society, may be by the so-called friends or rivals or enemies. If we suppress our anger and don’t fight with them then we suffer from depression, frustration and other emotional disorders.
