The current research was conducted to explore the effectiveness of physical exercise and sports participation in functional recovery; and efficacy of social skills training in the psycho social rehabilitation of patients with schizophrenia. Two experimental studies included single-subject experiment design and pretest-posttest experiment design was administered. The participants of single subject experiment design consisted of (N=14) male members of fountain house with age range (M=31.50, SD=7.06) selected though purposive sampling. The pretest-posttest experiment design was consisted of (N=30; experimental group= 15, control group=15) patients of schizophrenia with age range between 22-63 years and selected though purposive sampling and then randomly assigned into the two groups. Pre and post ratings of psychologists and self-reporting of the patients was used to see the effectiveness of both the experiment’s results. The results have shown strong therapeutic impact of physical exercise and sports participation on the patients with schizophrenia. The second experiment showed significant differences between experiment group and control group on psychologist rating, and self-rating. A great decrease of symptoms and higher psychosocial functioning was reported in experimental group after 12 weeks social skills training program with three months follow up on fortnightly basis .The control group after their post assessment also carried out 12 days condense Social Skills Training classes to benefit from the social Skills training program. The results are discussed in cultural context.

مولانا مسعود علی ندوی

مسعود علی ندوی
کاروان شبلی کا آخری مسافر
دارالمصنفین کے تین معمار تھے، حضرت سید صاحب رحمۃ اﷲ علیہ، مولانا عبدالسلام صاحب ندوی اور مولانا مسعودی ندوی اول الذکر دونوں بزرگ بہت پہلے اس دنیا سے اٹھ چکے تھے، اس قافلہ کے آخری مسافر مولانا مسعود علی صاحب ندوی نے بھی ۲۷؍ اگست کو جنت کی راہ لی، ان تینوں نے مل کر دارالمصنفین کو پروان چڑھایا تھا، حضرت سید صاحب اور مولانا عبدالسلام صاحب نے علمی حیثیت سے دارالمصنفین کا نام اونچا کیا، اور اس کی شہرت کو عالمگیر بنایا اور مولانا مسعود علی صاحب نے انتظامی حیثیت سے اس کو ترقی دی اور اس کا مقامی وقار قائم کیا۔
مرحوم سراپاقوت وعمل تھے، انھوں نے اپنے دور میں بڑے بڑے عملی کام کئے اور مولانا شبلی سے نسبت رکھنے والے اداروں کو فائدہ پہنچایا، دارالمصنفین کی تمام عمارتیں، دارالعلوم ندوۃ العلماء کی عالیشان مسجد، شبلی کالج کا وسیع کانووکیشن ہال انہی کے ذوق تعمیر کی یادگار ہیں، جب تک یہ عمارتیں قائم ہیں، ان کا نام زندہ رہے گا، ایک زمانہ میں سیاسی اور قومی کاموں میں بھی سرگرمی سے حصہ لیا، خلافت اور ترک موالات کی تحریک کے زمانہ میں سید صاحب کی شخصیت اور مولانا مسعود علی صاحب کی عملی جدوجہد نے دارالمصنفین کو سیاسی کاموں کا مرکز بنادیا تھا، اس زمانہ کا کوئی بڑا لیڈر ایسا نہیں ہے جس نے دارالمصنفین کا طواف نہ کیا ہو، ان سب سے مولانا کے دوستانہ تعلقات تھے، پورے ضلع میں ان کا طوطی بولتا تھا، یہاں کے سارے کاموں کے روح رواں وہی تھے، ان کے بغیر کسی تحریک میں جان نہیں پڑتی تھی، اب تو زمانہ بہت آگے بڑھ گیا ہے، ایک زمانہ میں وہ اعظم گڑھ میں تہذیب کے بھی معلم سمجھے جاتے تھے، انھوں نے یہاں کا تہذیبی معیار بلند کردیا تھا،...

Effectiveness of Digital Health Services: Challenges and Constraints for Society

This article discusses the effectiveness of digital health services by looking at the challenges and obstacles for society. One form of public services implemented by the government for the community is meeting the need for quality public services and having an orientation to the effectiveness of services to the community that are needed. In the health sector itself, advances in information technology have greatly supported health services. This online system is of high quality to be implemented because the public and members of the medical system can receive and provide detailed and fast information with the help of computerized technology. Information technology has reached various fields of life including the health sector to help the efficiency and effectiveness of health services. Information technology that is properly implemented can support the management process to be effective and efficient. The corona pandemic is changing people's habits in visiting and consulting doctors at hospitals. However, digital-based health services have not been effectively accepted by the public from various service units. They still need improvements in terms of connectivity, content and clarity of regulations.

Work Related Outcomes of Perceived Authentic Leadership in the Context of Organization Structures

The study undertaken was designed to determine the direct and indirect effects of perceived authentic leadership on creative work behavior through work related flow and psychological capital of employees working in tall (banks) and flat (software houses) organizations. Measures of Authentic Leadership Questionnaire (Avolio, Gardner, & Walumbwa, 2007), Psychological Capital Questionnaire (Luthans, Youssef, & Avolio, 2007), Work Related Flow Scale (Bakker, 2008), Creativity Scale (Zhou & George, 2001), and Social Desirability Scale-17 (Stober, 2001) were used to assess the constructs of the study. The overall research design comprised of three studies. Study I constituted indigenous exploration of the study constructs which was executed in two separate phases. In phase I, a series of four focus group discussions were conducted to capture the indigenous understanding of the major constructs of the study. Phase II of study I was further comprised of three parts. In part I, appropriate instruments were selected on the basis of the themes emerged in focus group discussions. In part II, instruments were tried on an independent sample (N = 25) of employees (software houses and banks) to identify the realistic concerns of the respondents while attempting the instruments. In part III, measures were evaluated by subject experts (N = 6) and feedback received by them was incorporated through committee approach. Study II consisted of empirical estimation of psychometric indices of all the measures and confirmation of measurement models on an independent sample (N = 277) of employees. Results showed that all the measures were reliable instruments for the related constructs of the study. Confirmatory Factor Analysis 17 yielded factor structures of psychological capital, work related flow, creative work behavior, and social desirability in accordance to the theoretical models. However, model of authentic leadership exhibited variations in few items which resulted in modification in the final model of the said construct. Work related outcomes of perceived authentic leadership in the context of organizational structures were determined in study III through hypotheses and model testing on a convenient purposive sample (N =1180) of employees. Results showed that perceived authentic leadership, psychological capital, and work-related flow positively predicted creative work behavior. Work-related flow and psychological capital has shown parallel mediation between perceived authentic leadership and creative work behavior for employees working in software houses and banks. Findings also revealed that organizational structures significantly moderated the relationship of perceived authentic leadership, psychological capital, and work related flow with creative work behavior. Results showed significant group differences in terms of gender, education, job experience, job period in the current organization, and type of organization across both organizational structures. Additional findings indicated moderating role of gender in predicting creative work behavior from perceived authentic leadership and psychological capital among employees of software houses and banks. Moreover, combined effect of gender and organizational structure was also determined on all the study variables. In the end, path models were generated which distinctively highlighted the similarities as well as differences in the interactions of major constructs which function jointly in the context of tall (banks) and flat (software houses) organizations. Theoretical and practical implications of the present study for employees and future recommendations were also discussed.
