    Impact of Structured Physical Activity on Attention Span in Young Children in Ethiopia
    (IPRJB, 2024-08-06) Abebe Bikila
    Purpose: The aim of the study was to analyze the impact of structured physical activity on attention span in young children in Ethiopia. Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries. Findings: Impact of structured physical activity on the attention span of young children in Ethiopia reveals several key findings. The studies indicate that regular, organized physical activities significantly enhance children's attention spans, leading to improved focus and cognitive performance in educational settings. These activities help in developing better self-regulation skills, which are crucial for maintaining attention during tasks. The research also highlights that children who engage in structured physical exercises show fewer signs of hyperactivity and distractibility compared to those who do not participate in such programs. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Cognitive load theory, self-determination theory & ecological systems theory may be used to anchor future studies on the impact of structured physical activity on attention span in young children in Ethiopia. The recommendations for integrating structured physical activities into educational curricula offer a practical contribution by providing actionable steps for educators to enhance children's attention span and cognitive development. The policy recommendations contribute uniquely by emphasizing the need for supportive educational policies that mandate and fund structured physical activities.

    (IPRJB, 2024-08-06) Ahmad Faizal
    Purpose: The aim of the study was to analyze the effect of physical exercise on sleep quality in college athletes in Malaysia. Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries. Findings: Research on college athletes in Malaysia reveals that regular physical exercise significantly improves sleep quality by increasing sleep duration and efficiency. Exercise reduces sleep latency, helping athletes fall asleep faster, and enhances deep sleep stages crucial for recovery. Additionally, physical activity aids in managing stress and anxiety, which are linked to poor sleep. However, the impact of exercise can vary depending on its intensity and timing. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The theory of exercise and sleep interactions, the cognitive behavioral theory of insomnia (CBT-I) & the circadian rhythm theory may be used to anchor future studies on the effect of physical exercise on sleep quality in college athletes in Malaysia. Athletic trainers and coaches should design personalized exercise regimens that include a mix of aerobic, resistance, and flexibility exercises tailored to individual athletes' needs. Sports organizations and educational institutions should establish policies that recommend optimal timing for workouts. Research indicates that morning sessions are less disruptive to sleep than evening sessions, and such guidelines can help in scheduling training sessions to promote better sleep quality.

    Online Sports Betting and Demographic Factors' Effects on Student-Athletes’ Mental Health
    (IPRJB, 2024-05-08) Gathoni, Ndung’u Benson; Munayi, Simon; Wanjira, Janet; Apaak, Daniel; Amakye, Eans Kwako
    Purpose: The objective of the study was to determine how the interaction between the volume of online sports betting and the demographic factors affects how student-athletes perceive the repercussions on their mental health. Methodology: Cross-sectional survey research was used for this study. Thirty-eight universities both public and private were sampled. Self-reporting questionnaires, key interview schedules and an observation plan were all used by the researcher. With the help of the SPSS version 25 programme, the data were coded and examined. Testing the impact of demographic factors on the connection between dependent and independent variables involved regression analysis with an interaction effect. The link between the independent variables was investigated using correlation analysis. Data was presented in form of tables and figures. Findings: The findings demonstrate a substantial and positive correlation between the level of gambling and mental health (r = 0.411, P>0.0001). The findings of the regression of coefficients showed a positive and significant relationship between the severity of gambling and students' mental wellness (r = 0.576, P>0.0001). The R1 Squared value was greater than 0.169 (without interaction) at 010.731 (with demographic factors interaction). The interaction impact of the demographic parameters was significant (p-value = 0.012). Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: This suggests that the association between the intensity of gambling and mental wellness is significantly influenced by the combination of demographic factors. According to study, regular bettors are more likely to attempt or commit suicide because they are more prone to feel anger, rage, and guilt after suffering significant losses. Particularly when students are under stress, this is true. Online sports betting has also been linked to high levels of addiction, just like alcohol, drugs, and items related to smoking.

    (IPRJB, 2025-05-21) Leah Miano; Peter Kihara; Stephen Maore
    Purpose: In order to thrive in the extremely competitive market dynamics of the twenty-first century, state corporations in Kenya must overcome a number of obstacles and become more organized and efficient. The main objective of this study was to establish the influence of structural adaptations on performance of state corporations. Methodology: Anchored on Dynamic Capabilities View of the Firm, the study employed a cross-sectional study design utilising mixed methods such as quantitative, qualitative and Descriptive analysis. One hundred and seventy-seven (177) state corporations were targeted where a total of 122 State Corporations were randomly selected and used in this study. The unit of observation was the Chief Executive Officer of each sampled organization since they are the vision carriers and accounting officers. A standard questionnaire was used to collect quantitative primary data. Findings: The study found that there is a significant and positive influence of structural adaptations on performance of state corporations in Kenya. The findings were supported by the correlation results which showed a positive and significant association between the two variables (r=0.517, p-value=0.000<0.05). This was also supported by the regression results which revealed that structural adaptations had a positive and significant impact on performance (β1 =0.712, p=0.000). Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: This study contributes to theory by extending the Dynamic Capabilities View to public sector institutions, demonstrating how structural adaptations influence performance. It informs policy by advocating for decentralization, digitization, and flattened hierarchies to improve service delivery. Practically, it guides state corporations in redesigning internal structures for greater efficiency, responsiveness, and accountability, offering a contextualized framework for structural reform in Kenya's state-owned enterprises.

    (IPRJB, 2025-03-17) Margaret Chege; Christopher Gakuu; John Mbugua
    Purpose: This study aims to explore the factors influencing the performance of Intelligent Traffic Control Systems (ITCS) in Nairobi, focusing on road intersection management, traffic education, law enforcement, and evaluation, while examining how these factors interact to enhance ITCS performance. Methodology: A pragmatist research paradigm was adopted, integrating qualitative and quantitative approaches. A mixed-methods, explanatory research design was used to provide comprehensive insights into traffic management practices, combining qualitative stakeholder interviews with quantitative survey data. The study targeted 942 traffic management stakeholders, including public service vehicle SACCO leaders, traffic police officers, county officials, and representatives from the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) and the Kenya Urban Roads Authority. Data collection involved key informant interviews and structured questionnaires to capture diverse viewpoints and enhance the study’s comprehensiveness. Findings: The results reveal that traffic education positively impacts ITCS performance, emphasizing the importance of educating road users to improve traffic flow. However, road intersection engineering and law enforcement showed minimal effect on ITCS, and traffic evaluation had a negative impact on performance. This suggests that while traffic education is critical, infrastructure and enforcement need further improvement for better results. Unique Contribution to Practice and Policy: This study offers insights into factors affecting ITCS performance and provides practical recommendations for policymakers, emphasizing the need to focus on enhancing traffic education, improving infrastructure, and optimizing law enforcement to strengthen traffic management systems in Nairobi.
