ABSTRACT Environmental attitudes are important because they often, but not always, determine behavior that either increases or decreases environmental quality. Environmental education aims to improve environmental attitudes but has mixed results. Environmental attitudes might be better described as having preservation and utilization dimensions. The canvas of environmental education includes main integrated components awareness and conservation. Hence the present study was undertaken to assess the environmental attitude of adolescents studying in senior secondary schools of Bikaner city. The total sample for the present study was 120 randomly selected adolescents. Data was collected through the Standardized Environmental Attitude Scale developed. To assess the areas of environmental attitude of the selected respondents, frequency and percentage were computed. The major findings revealed that none of the boys and girls were found to have low level of attitude. It can be concluded that although the adolescents had awareness and favorable attitude about different areas of environmental attitude. It was not sufficient and there was a need for imparting quality knowledge to the adolescents through appropriate environmental education program.

Abstract One hundred and twenty children in the age group of 3-6 years of women migrant laborers that are domestic and construction laborers were selected from Ludhiana city by random sampling. The information regarding the quantities of foods consumed was collected from the mothers of the subjects by a 24-hour recall method. The daily mean intake of cereals and pulses was ninety-five and ninety-one percent of the suggested dietary intake, respectively. The daily mean intake of milk and milk products was thirteen percent and that of fruits and vegetables varies from eighteen to twenty-nine percent of the suggested amount indicating poor intake. The nutrient intake in all selected preschool children was found to be inadequate except protein intake and vitamin B12 intake. The study concluded that the food and nutrient intake of children of both domestic and construction women laborers was inadequate. The study recommends that the mothers should be educated about appropriate feeding practices and selection of right foods for their children in order to achieve optimum health for them in their limited resources.

Abstract Gluten free diet is the only treatment for healing and recovery of mucosa and normalization of symptoms in celiac disease. To study the compliance rate for gluten free diet and consumption of gluten containing items among confirmed Celiac disease patients. Celiac disease patient (7-12 years) previously diagnosed were selected. An interview schedule was developed and pre-tested on 10 percent of sample, then used for data collection by a skilled dietician. Compliance information was derived on the basis of: 1.) 45 gluten containing items 2.) Two day 24 hour dietary recall 3.) Children receiving pocket money. The compliance rate was poor in both the age groups. The mean compliance score was comparatively more in children (7-9 years) than pre-adolescents. Relationship between pocket money receivers and non-compliance was found highly significant (Chi-square value=100.64 at p < 0.01). Compliance rate between both the age groups (that is, 7-9 and 10-12 years) was very poor. Preadolescents are more prone to noncompliance. There is positive impact of knowledge and regular follow up on strict adherence to GFD.

Abstract The aim of the present study was to estimate the contribution of women towards the nation’s economy and social development through their unpaid work. Primary data for the study was collected from 360 working and non-working women of three different income groups that is LIG, MIG and HIG from two major cities of Punjab namely, Patiala and Ludhiana. Results relating to the non-economic contribution of women have shown that most of them under study (351/360) performed daily household chores by themselves, and hence contributed indirectly towards their family income by saving some money. The average number of household chores performed by working (3.27) and non-working (3.36) women showed that working women do not lag far behind the nonworking women, thus, both working and non-working women have almost equal contribution in the exchequer of their families. On an average, a woman saved INR 1,873 per month by way of doing household chores by herself.

Abstract Time is a quantitative resource as it can be measured easily. Leisure time is one of the aspects of time along with work and rest. Activities engaged in leisure time are pursued for one’s own sake. The present study was undertaken to find the gender difference of leisure time activities pursued by the respondents. The research design of the present study was descriptive in nature. The study comprised of 90 male and 90 female respondents. Findings of the study reported that all the male and female respondents ranked social leisure time activity first on the basis of leisure time activities pursued by them. It also revealed that the male and female respondents spent maximum time in pursuing leisure time activities related to “entertainment”. The findings will be helpful to the youth of the nation, academicians and community in adopting different leisure time activities.
