Procrastination on social media: predictors of types, triggers and acceptance of countermeasures by Abdulaziz Alblwi (18520041)

“…Following a survey of 288 participants from the UK (n = 165) and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (n = 123), we conducted a series of multiple regression and binary logistic regression models to determine predictors of these factors. Several predictors such as self-control and conscientiousness were found to be significant predictors, but overall, the amount of variance explained by the regression models was relatively low. …”

Diabetes fatalism and its emotional distress subscale are independent predictors of glycemic control among Lebanese patients with type 2 diabetes by Bassil, Maya

“…However, advanced age (P = 0.055), female gender (P = 0.003), and diabetes education (P = 0.011) were significantly associated with lower HbA1c levels. Conclusion: This is the first study in the Arab region that identifies diabetes fatalism as an independent predictor of glycemic control among Lebanese. …”
