Head size and intelligence: A correlational study

ABSTRACT
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between head size and intelligence. A cross-sectional research design was used in the study. Twenty (20) respondents with ages from 12-18 years were purposively selected. Ages, head circumferences and IQ scores were obtained from each of the respondents. One way ANOVA revealed a no significant difference among the respondents in reference to their ages, head sizes and intelligence (p < 0.05). Regression analysis revealed a no significant relationship between the respondents’ head circumferences and IQ scores (R2 = 0.002). Thus, this study concluded that having large head size doesn’t account for one’s ...

Introduction

Studies have shown that students who command healthier lifestyles (e.g. having a balanced diet and engaging in regular physical activities) tend to outperform students who are malnourished and sedentary. The objective of this paper is to determine the nutrition and health levels of students in a preselected university in terms of various anthropometric measurements.
The rationale behind the use of anthropometric measurements is the fact that they have served as some of the strongest indicators of health. The anthropometric measurements obtained in the study on a per student basis were height, weight, left demi span, right demi span, waist ...

Abstract

This study focuses on the issue of diabetes among the people of Asian origin. It begins by describing diabetes as a recent pandemic that has imposed a significant burden on diabetic patients and healthcare providers. Diabetes is primarily a metabolic disorder that elevates the level of blood sugar and, hence, causes various complications, including death. The disease is common in Asian communities due to genetic factors, diet, and lifestyle trends. Thus, there is a need for skilled medical professionals, such as nurses, to increase diabetes awareness, encourage the adoption of preventive measures, and promote diabetes care among Asians. As ...

The sine is the ratio of the opposite leg of the right triangle to its hypotenuse. Let’s imagine that we have the Cartesian coordinate system and a circumference with the same center and radius R. Every angle can be depicted as a rotation operation from the positive x-axis to some interval that joins together the center of the Cartesian coordinate system and some point of the circumference. The length of this interval is equal to the radius and can be depicted as the hypotenuse of the right triangle. The adjacent leg of the triangle belongs to the x-axis, ...

What is the impact of smoking on chest?

Smoking seriously deteriorates the respiratory and cardiovascular functions of the body, and it is continuously increasing in young people. Problems in respiratory function can be checked through the measurement of chest expansion, respiratory muscle strength, and lung volume. Studies have shown that smoking decreases pulmonary function, and can result in airway obstruction as well as small airway disease in adult people. Smoking can also result in resistance to airflow, irritation of the airway, and cough. Researchers have reported that chest wall expansion is greatly affected in smokers. Smokers have lowered chest circumference as compared to non-smokers at the ...
