Abstract

Background: Bipolar disorder (BD) is a recurring mental health condition that causes individuals to experience alternating episodes of mania and depression. This research explores the prevalence and contributing risk factors for BD among young adults in District Dera Ismail Khan, with a focus on socio-demographic factors such as age, gender, educational background, and employment status. Methods: This cross-sectional study used the Mood Disorder Questionnaire (MDQ) to screen for BD among 339 participants, aged 17–37 years. Participants were asked questions on their age, gender, educational background, and employment status. Results: Results showed that 34.8% of participants screened positive for BD, with a higher prevalence in females (35.8%) compared to males (33.1%). A higher BD prevalence was also observed among older participants and those with advanced education. Additionally, unemployed individuals showed a greater prevalence of BD (37.1%) than employed individuals (23.2%). Conclusion: The findings demonstrate a significant prevalence of BD in District Dera Ismail Khan, particularly among females, young adults, individuals with higher education, and the unemployed. Mental health interventions tailored to these groups may help improve outcomes in this region

Abstract

The field of Global Software Development has been an active area of research for the last two decades due to its enormous benefits such as lower labor cost, faster development and easy access to the skilled labor pool. Apart from these benefits, it faces some challenges like communication, coordination, trust and configuration management etc. These challenges arise primarily due to physical, cultural and time zone differences. The empirical studies highlight that the existing Global Software Development solutions do not fully meet the user needs as there are still several gaps in these solutions. Therefore, to fulfill these gaps, there is a need to develop novel frameworks that address outstanding issues. In this paper, we have attempted to address the aforesaid GSD challenges. The practitioners can benefit from our proposed framework during the execution of GSD projects. The proposed framework mainly focuses on the root causes of the two principal challenges namely the communication and cultural differences. We believe that if the team members of a software project can communicate effectively and show considerations for others by imparting due reverence to the cultural norms, then the other residual issues can easily be reduced and minimized.
