Abstract:

Autism has no cure, but early and appropriate diagnosis and intervention may increase outcomes for individuals affected. The level of awareness, acceptance, and support for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in Nigeria is very low. There is a gap in the literature regarding a detailed account of the experiences of parents raising children with ASD within the Nigerian environment and culture. The purpose of this phenomenological study was to explore the perceptions and lived experiences of mothers raising children with ASD in Nigeria including the impact of Nigerian culture on their experiences.

Abstract:

The primary aim of this thesis was to investigate aspects of self-awareness in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Given widely accepted assumptions that “the self” is not a unitary construct, but is instead multifaceted, this thesis explored the extent to which impairments in self-awareness may be “domain-specific”. The nine experimental tasks reported in this thesis explored several aspects of self-awareness in children and adults with ASD, including awareness of the physical self, conceptual self, and mental self. Overall, the results of these studies suggest that individuals w

Abstract:

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a non-communicable progressive disease that can lead to kidney failure or end-stage renal disease. In Nigeria, many people do not have access to health care due to extreme poverty, which means that those suffering from diabetes or high blood pressure, or both diseases, which have been identified as the 2 main risk factors, may not know their health status. The purpose of this phenomenological study was to explore the level of CKD awareness among Nigerians and if cultural beliefs affect individuals' health seeking behaviors because of the diverse nature of the Ni

Based on past research of several different populations, it appears that there is a general lack of knowledge and awareness of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD’s). In order for people with autism to receive proper diagnosis, treatment, and have a high quality of life, it is important that everyone is aware and has high level of knowledge of autism. This study sought to measure the level of awareness and knowledge of autism with in the Hispanic community through a survey that addressed the characteristics and misconceptions of autism.

There is poor oral health awareness in Nigeria. This is mainly attributed to limited access to correct information on oral health as well as a lack of oral health care providers. The impact of the poor oral health awareness is worse in Northern Nigeria due to the uneven distribution of oral health care workers and training facilities. The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to describe the roles of community pharmacists (CPs) in Plateau State, Nigeria as sources of oral health information.

Research has focused on identifying the impairments of LFA children's social interactional abilities in controlled experimental contexts with adult partners. However, there is a paucity of research investigating if LFA children can participate in collaborative activity with peers, and if so

Abstract:

Young people (YP) with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) experience high levels of anxiety and depression. The NICE guidelines (2013) suggest adapted Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) for such difficulties. Research has identified prerequisites to engage in CBT, including the ability to understand thoughts, feelings and behaviours. In order to employ these skills, people need to have an awareness of their own emotions, and to be socialised to (or understand) the CBT model. However, there is no evidence to suggest whether prerequisite skills and emotion awareness are important factors in CBT outc

This study explored film as a supplementary aid in teaching adults about HIV/AIDS in the Igueben area of Edo State (Nigeria). It drew on the theory and practice of film to enhance the awareness of HIV/AIDS campaign strategies in ways that are not possible with other teaching aids.
