Personal values are beliefs, missions, or philosophies that are meaningful to individuals. Values can range from common beliefs like hard work to more psychological values like self-reliance. Values are formed primarily during childhood through influences from family, school, religion and peers. According to Morris Massey, there are three significant periods for values formation - the imprint period from birth to age 7, the modeling period from ages 8 to 13, and the socialization period from ages 13 to 21.

What are the Ways to Improve Your Self-esteem.pdfPurna Rai
What is self-esteem?
Self-esteem is the inner capacity of a human being which is contained with beliefs that guides your abilities and limitation. It is formed by your thoughts, relationships, experience, culture, religion, and other factors including socioeconomic status. Self-esteem is confidence on own worth and abilities. It encompasses beliefs about oneself that present a person’s emotional states, like pride, glory, despair, shame, etc. Smith and Mackie (2007) defined it by saying “The self-concept is what we think about the self; self-esteem, is the positive or negative evaluations of the self, as in how we feel about it.” Self-esteem is a psychological concept that predicts certain outcomes, such as academic achievement, happiness, satisfaction, and positive or negative behavior. Self-esteem has applied to a specific attribute or globally. Synonyms of self-esteem are self-worth, self-regard, self-respect, and self-integrity. It depends on how we value and perceive ourselves.
It is founded on our opinions and beliefs that are often difficult to change. We can know of this as self-confidence. Self-confidence in one’s value as a human being is a psychological resource and generally a highly positive factor in life; it is contained with achievement, good relationships, and satisfaction. People have experienced difficulties, but over the rest of their lives, self-esteem seems to rise and fall in predictable, systematic ways. Research shows that self-esteem grows, by varying degrees, until the age of 60, when it remains steady before beginning to decline in old age. It can cause life in different ways from academic and professional success to relationships and mental health. However, it is not an immutable distinction; success or failure in personal and professional phenomena can ignite fluctuations in feelings of self-dignity. Self-confidence links to self-actualization which represents the pursuit of reaching one’s full potential.

General Endocrinology and mechanism of action of hormonesMedicoseAcademics
This presentation, given by Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology, delves into the foundational concepts of general endocrinology. It covers the various types of chemical messengers in the body, including neuroendocrine hormones, neurotransmitters, cytokines, and traditional hormones. Dr. Faiza explains how these messengers are secreted and their modes of action, distinguishing between autocrine, paracrine, and endocrine effects.
The presentation provides detailed examples of glands and specialized cells involved in hormone secretion, such as the pituitary gland, pancreas, parathyroid gland, adrenal medulla, thyroid gland, adrenal cortex, ovaries, and testis. It outlines the special features of hormones, differentiating between peptides and proteins based on their amino acid composition.
Key principles of endocrinology are discussed, including hormone secretion in response to stimuli, the duration of hormone action, hormone concentrations in the blood, and secretion rates. Dr. Faiza highlights the importance of feedback control in hormone secretion, the occurrence of hormonal surges due to positive feedback, and the role of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the hypothalamus as the master clock regulating rhythmic patterns in biological clocks of neuroendocrine cells and endocrine glands.
The presentation also addresses the metabolic clearance of hormones from the blood, explaining the mechanisms involved, such as metabolic destruction by tissues, binding with tissues, and excretion by the liver and kidneys. The differences in half-life between hydrophilic and hydrophobic hormones are explored.
The mechanism of hormone action is thoroughly covered, detailing hormone receptors located on the cell membrane, in the cell cytoplasm, and in the cell nucleus. The processes of upregulation and downregulation of receptors are explained, along with various types of hormone receptors, including ligand-gated ion channels, G protein–linked hormone receptors, and enzyme-linked hormone receptors. The presentation elaborates on second messenger systems such as adenylyl cyclase, cell membrane phospholipid systems, and calcium-calmodulin linked systems.
Finally, the methods for measuring hormone concentrations in the blood, such as radioimmunoassay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), are discussed, providing a comprehensive understanding of the tools used in endocrinology research and clinical practice.

Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga- MALE CIRCUMCISION, ITS Vs SOCIOCULTURAL BELIEFS (C...Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
MALE CIRCUMCISION consists of the surgical act of removing the foreskin (skin that covers the glans of the penis), leaving the glans more prominent and better cleanable.
MALE CIRCUMCISION itself has medical as well as sociocultural implications, as it has been proven to be an act that can minimize SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTIONS (STIs), especially HIV, but it also represents the SOCIOCULTURAL IDENTITY of some people, respectively.
Now, in a SERO-EPIDEMIOLOGICAL PROFILE like that of Mozambique where the prevalence of HIV is around 12.5% which corresponds to approximately 2 million people living with HIV, where the province of GAZA is the most seroprevalent with a positivity rate of 21% (INSIDA, 2021), it is extremely necessary to THOROUGHLY scrutinize all possibilities for preventing or minimizing the spread of HIV and other STIs.
Factors influencing growth & development:
Growth & development depend upon multiple factors or determinants. They influence directly or indirectly by promoting or hindering the process.
The determinants can be grouped as Heredity & environment..
Heredity or genetic factors are also related to sex, race, & nationality. Environment includes both pre natal & post natal factors.
