Item Victimology and psychosocial well-being of the elderly in Iwaya community(2019) Fatoye, H. A.Victimology is an infrequently discussed social phenomenon in Nigeria despite its prevalence and grave social implications. Nigerian government does not provide social security for the elderly and the support from the family is fading out, leading to kidnap and abuse of elders. The study examined the relationship between Victimology and psycho-social wellbeing of elders in Iwaya community, Lagos State. Quantitative data were analysed using descriptive and t-test at P value 0.5. The findings revealed that kidnapping and abuse of elders were more experienced outside Lagos State (14.7%) than other places such as within neighbourhood (8%), outside neighbourhood (6.7%), and outside the country' (7.3%). The value of X2 at the .05 level of significance with 1 degree of freedom was 3.841. The computed value of 2.227a was smaller and within the critical value range of 3.841. The null hypothesis that there is no significant relationship between kidnapping of elders and their psychosocial wellbeing was accepted. The value of X2 at 0.5 level of significance with 1-degree freedom was 3.841. Computed value of 4.313a was greater than the critical value of 3.841. The null hypothesis that there is no significant relationship between mistreatment and their psychosocial wellbeing was rejected. Results suggest possible factors such as poor quality of education, high level of poverty, lack of value for hard-work and indiscipline are causes of crime, thus negatively affecting security of lives and properties. Government should address security lapses by providing the security agencies with necessary facilities and environment conducive to combating crime in NigeriaItem Support group system and psycho-social well-being of people living with HIV in selected anti-retroviral clinics in Oyo State, Nigeria(2022-01) Fatoye, H. A.; Afolabi, A.This study examined the effect of support group System on the psycho-social well-being of PLHW in selected anti- retroviral clinics in Oyo state. The study adopted the survey design. A total number of 321 PLWH attending six selected ART clinics in Oyo State, Nigeria and actively participating support group meetings consistently for the past three months prior to the study were purposively selected for the study. Support Group System on Psycho-social Well- being Questionnaire (r=0.) was used for data collection. Four (4) hypotheses were tested at p<05. Data collected were analyzed at univariate and bivariate levels using SPSS Version 25. The study established that female respondents (x = 61.76) living with HIV has the better level of group support compared to male (x = 56.78) (Crit-t = 1.96, Cal.t = 2.216, DF = 319, p(0.027)<0.05 level of significance). For psychosocial well-being of PLWHA, the result shows that there was a significant relationship between group support and emotional wellbeing (r=.409), physical wellbeing (r=.266), and social wellbeing (r=.263), respectively. Based on the findings, it is recommended that that group support is necessary for the psychosocial well-being of PLWHA, through the provision of efficient and functional support groups in all ART clinics for people living with HIV/AIDS. There should also be adequate social Services and relevant health policies to better the lives of PWHA.
