A Study Of Correlation Between Consciousness Level And Performance Of Worker, D. K. Chaturvedi Dr. Aug 2013

A Study Of Correlation Between Consciousness Level And Performance Of Worker, D. K. Chaturvedi Dr.

D. K. Chaturvedi Dr.

A considerable amount of research indicates that consciousness is one of the best predictors of performance in the workplace. The Conscious employees are generally more reliable, more motivated, and harder working. They have also lower rate of absenteeism and counterproductive work behaviours such as stealing and fighting with other employees. Furthermore, consciousness is the only personality trait that correlates with performance across all categories of jobs. This is a pilot study to determine the workers performance related with consciousness. The consciousness will be experimentally measured using the a sensor developed in the lab of faculty of engineering, D.E. I. Dayalbagh, …


Accountability In The Church, Professor Ben C Osisioma Aug 2013

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. The goal is to help people grow in Christ and learn …


Mental Chronometry Measured By Electromyography In Cognitive Experiments Demanding Movement For Response Elicitation, Mohammad Abdolvahab, Miguel Moreno, Nigel Stepp, Daniela Vaz, Michael Turvey Jul 2013

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 …
