جدید اور حالیہ ماخذ ِ تحقیق میں ایک اہم اور نہایت مفید و ناگزیر ماخذاشاریہ بھی شامل ہے، جوایک اصول کے طور پر اولاً ان کتابوں میں شامل کیا جانے لگاتھا جوطویل متن پر مشتمل ہوتی تھیں اور اشاریے کے اسماء (اشخاص،اماکن، مطبوعات، عمارات وادارے، وغیرہ اس متن کے اندرسے اخذ کیے جاتے اور متون کے آخر میں حروف تہجی کے اعتبارسے سائنسی بنیادوں پرترتیب دے کر شامل کیے جاتے تھے۔اس روایت کا آغاز کوئی تین سوسال قبل ہوا تھا اور خاص طور پر مغرب کے ترقی یافتہ ممالک کی علمی روایات میں علمی و تحقیقی اور تاریخی متون مروج رہا۔جنوبی ایشیا یا ہندوستان اور پاکستان میں بھی یہ مغربی اثرات کے زیر اثر یہاں کی زبانوں کی تصانیف میں قریباً دوسوسال قبل سے یہ روایت دیکھنے میں آتی ہے۔علمی دنیا میں اشاریہ سازی نے کئی مفید و ناگزیر انداز اختیار کیے ہیں اور کامیابی سے اپنا فرض ادا کررہی ہے۔ اسی عمل نے محض متون کی اندر سے اسماء کو اخذ کرنے ہی تک خود کو مخصوص نہ رکھا بل کہ رسائل کے حوالے سے ان کے مشمولات کی فہرست سازی کو بھی اس عمل نے اہمیت دی ہے اور رسائل کے اشاریوں کی ترتیب مختلف صورتوں میں اس طرح انجام دی ہے کہ جن سے متعلقہ رسالے میں شائع شدہ مضامین و مقالات یا جملہ تخلیقات و نگارشات بھی اس کے دائرے میں شامل ہوکر ایک نہایت جامع مشمولات کی فہرست بن گئی ہے جو مختلف صورتوں: اشخاص، مطبوعات، اماکن، ادارے و عمارات غرض سارے ہی موجودہ عنوانات اس ترتیب میں شامل ہوجائیں کہ کسی طرح کاکوئی عنوان اس فہرست سے باہر نہ رہ جائے۔
Background and Aims: The COVID-19 outbreak is the biggest global crisis in generations having severe and far-reaching repercussions for the health system, creating high prevalence of severe posttraumatic stress symptoms for physical therapists, highlighting the need for psychological help. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate how resilience functions as a mediator in the relationship between anxiety and personality among Karachi based physiotherapists.
Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted among physiotherapists of Karachi using a convenience sampling technique from August to December 2021. The data was collected using a 10-Item Personality Inventory, Brief Resilience Scale, and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale questionnaire.
Results: Among 70 participants, the emotional stability trait (7.6±1.4) had higher mean values on the TIPI. On the HAM-A scale, 81.4% physiotherapists had moderate to severe anxiety followed by 15.7% mild to moderate anxiety whereas 92.9% were shown to have normal resilience. Despite all correlations being negligible, only the association between agreeableness and resilience was non-significantly higher (r=0.83).
Conclusion: It was concluded that there was no association between the anxiety state and resilience among physiotherapists, although there was a non-significantly higher relationship between agreeableness and openness to experiences personality traits. A high prevalence of moderate to severe anxiety was noted while using a standard resilience strategy.
The evidence provided by the analytical study of potsherds collected from various regions of the Kaghan Valley reveals that most of the potsherds have been produced from the local raw material. This makes a sense that there must have been some kiln(s) in the area. During the course of all the explorations conducted in the past years, no large scale production kiln has been found in the whole valley except some evidences in the Kanshian (a remote area of Balakot: the starting point of the valley from Mansehra side). The absence of large scale kiln in the whole interior of the Kaghan Valley gives the idea about the production of pottery that the residents of the different areas used to make pottery of their own in their homes with the hand-made pottery techniques (House-hold production or House-hold industry) and/or pottery was produced in the kilns (of Balakot and Garhi Habibullah) using the workshop industry or large-scale industry approach and then distributed in the whole valley. From the raw material to the activity distribution, the present study reveals that all the four approaches (House-hold production, House-hold industry, workshop industry and large-scale industry) are acceptable. In this archaeo-chemical and geo-archaeological study the primary question was, whether there is a common origin of pottery from different regions or it had been produced with the transfer of technology? Moreover, what kind of raw material(s) and technique(s), especially the firing temperatures and conditions, were used in the production of this pottery? Though, it is difficult to respond to investigations concerning complex incidents as migration putting together just with respect to the pottery information; full investigation of the issue requires broad research on different parts of life, for example, technology, dietary traditions, belief systems, anthropological divisions of the residents of the region, and so on, the capacity of building up the assumption, regardless of whether the kind of ceramics appeared in the region is imported or produced locally, adds a noteworthy and significant voice to the debate on the possible population changes in the region.
