Item Students' perception and satisfaction with use of electronic library services in academic libraries in Oyo state, Nigeria(2018-06) Olaojo, P. O.; Alayande, G. F.; Adebayo, R. T.; Ayoola, T. J.The use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in library Services has a great potential to change the perception of users about Service Provision. It could also raise the expectation for the Provision of electronic cum digital library Services. Library users, sometimes, leave the library in frustration because they are hardly satisfied with the available Services in libraries. This study, therefore, investigates undergraduate students’ perception and satisfaction with electronic Services in selected academic libraries in Oyo State. The study adopted a survey research design with a study population of 10,018 registered users in four academic libraries. A sample size of 501 respondents was selected using stratified random sampling technique. A questionnaire titled “User Perception and Satisfaction with Electronic Library Services (UPSELS)” was used for data collection. The study revealed that electronic information resources, electronic databases, Internet access and Computer facilities are available in the surveyed academic libraries. Most students perceived that academic libraries need to introduce more electronic resources in their various disciplines. Few of the students were satisfied with available electronic information resources. The study observed problems such as poor network/Internet Connectivity, and poor awareness of students about electronic library Services. However, the advent of electronic Services has really geared students to crave for new Services that better address their growing yearning for satisfying information needs. Therefore, it is recommended that new electronic Services such as digital libraries, institutional repositories, and self-help Services should be introduced in line with best practices in the developed part of the world as this will increase the satisfaction level of users, especially, the undergraduate students.Item Availability and use of information communication technology in research institutes in Oyo state, Nigeria(Medium Publishing Company and Educational Consult in Collaboration with Options Books Ibadan, Nigeria., 2013-12) Olaojo, P. O.; Akinwumi, T. A.; Ladipo, S. O.This research work examined the availability and use of information and communication technologies by researchers in research institutes in Oyo State, Nigeria. The study aimed at determining the personal characteristics of the respondents, identified the information communication technologies (ICTs) available in the research institutes, the usage pattern of ICT facilities by researchers and activities for which ICT resources are used. The population of the study was three hundred and thirty-seven (337) researchers and the data collection instrument used was questionnaire. The study confirmed the availability of some ICT facilities such as Computer, mobile phones, internet, Scanners, DVD, and CD ROM. The study also revealed that fax and telex were the least available ICT facilities in the research institutes. Majority of the researchers were below 50 years, mostly males with higher educational achievements as most had the master and doctorate degrees. The study reported that majority of the researchers use ICT very frequently in the course of their work. It further revealed that researchers benefit immensely from the use of ICT facilities as they help in the dissemination of information.Item Promoting information and librarianship in Nigeria through research publications: the role of female academics(Medium Publishing Company and Educaitonal Consult in Collaboration with Options Books Ibadan, Nigeria, 2011-09) Olaojo, P.

LTD., 2019) Ofole, N. M.; Adegoke, I. V.Although there is plethora of studies on goal setting skills, there is paucity of experimental studies on this field. This study examined the comparative effectiveness of Mental Contrasting Therapy (MCT) and Self-Regulation Strategies (SRS) on enhancing goal setting skills of students in urban Nigeria. A group of 120 students (male=52, female=68) with age range of 14-17years and mean age of ≥ 13.5years were purposively drawn from secondary schools in urban Nigeria. Each of the intervention groups was exposed to 10 sessions of therapy designed to improve their goal setting skills. The control group served as comparison group. The result revealed a significant main effect of treatments on goal setting skills (F(2,105) =14.958, p<0.05) with the intervention groups demonstrating greater ability to utilize the acquired skills than the comparison group as evidenced on the mean score. The effect size reveals that treatment accounted for 22.2% (η2=0.222) change in the participants’ goal setting skills. Participants treated with SRS reported higher mean score at post-test (X=69.09) when compared with their counterpart in MCT group (X=66.93). Self-efficacy and gender have significant interactive effect with treatments F(4,105) = 6.375, p<0.05, η2=0.195 and F(2,105) =13.561, p<0.01, η2=0.205 respectively. The researchers concluded that though the two therapies were effective, SRS was more potent in enhancing goal setting skills of the participants.Item Can assertiveness skills training (AST) and Dialectical behaviour therapy treat social skills deficit of peer rejected in-school -adolescents in Ibadan, Nigeria?(2019) Ofole, N. M.; Onyebigwa, U. A.Students with deficit social skills tend to have problems of interactions with peers and teachers which indirectly affect their academic performance. Literature on management of social skill deficit among peer rejected adolescents in Oyo state is limited. This study therefore, utilized Assertiveness Skills Training (AST) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) to manage deficit social skills among students diagnosed as peer rejected in junior secondary schools in Ibadan, Oyo State. Pre-test-post-test control group, quasi experiment design with 3x2x3 factorial matrix was adopted. Ninety students (Males= 40; Females=50) with age range of 10 to 15 years were purposively drawn from three public secondary schools in Ibadan. Social Peer Rejection Scale (α =0.81) was used to draw peer rejected students, while Social Skills Rating Scale (α = 0.86) and Self-consciousness Scale (α=0.70) were utilized as outcome measures. The students were randomly assigned to treatment conditions. The Experimental groups were exposed to 10 sessions of therapies while the control group served as the comparison group. Results showed that there was a significant main effect of treatments [F (2, 75) = 8.761, p< 0.05, η2= 0.189] on social skills of the participants. Those treated with AST had superior mean gain ( x = 68.64) over DBT ( x = 66.09) and Control Group ( x =55.40). There was interaction effect of treatments and gender [F (2, 75) = 11.123, p<0.01, η2= 0.229]. The interaction effect of treatments and levels of self-awareness was also significant [F(4,75)= 3.081, p<0.05, η2= 0.141] on social skills. There was no three way interaction effect of treatments. This outcome provides empirical supports for the use of AST and DBT to remediate social skill deficit. The researchers recommended the use of the therapies for the enhancement of social skills in school settings.Item Adherence self-efficacy, interpersonal forgiveness and perceived social supports as nexus of subjective well-being among people living with hiv /aids in Akwa-Ibom, Nigeria(2019-01) Ofole, N. M.Correlational design was adopted to investigate the relationship among adherence self- efficacy, interpersonal forgiveness and perceived social support on subjective-well-being of PLWHA in Akwa-Ibom state. Purposive sampling technique was used to select one hundred persons living with HIV and AIDS from the state chapter of Network of People Living with HIV/AIDS in Nigeria (NEPWHAN) made of fifty-six males and forty-four females with age ranging from 18-to 45 years and mean age of 31.5. They responded to four self-report measures. Pearson Product Moment Correlation (PPMC), t-test for independents samples and multiple regressions were utilised to analysis three questions. Results show that independent variables have linear relationship with the subjective well-being of respondents. Further, interpersonal forgiveness was most potent in predicting subjective well-being (fi = 0.464, t = 6.011, P < 0.05) followed by perceived social support (fi = 0.233, t =3.898, P < 0.05), while the least was adherence self- efficacy (P = 0.053, t = 0.707, P >0.05). It was concluded that subjective well-being is associated with personal and socio-psychological factors. The theoretical and practical implications of the findings were discussed.
