Abstract

Substance abuse behaviour has caused harm to individuals, families and the larger society. Studies linking social media and peer pressure to substance abuse behaviour among youths in Rivers State are scarce. Therefore, this study investigated social media and peer pressure as predictors of substance abuse behavour among youths in Ahoada-East and Port Harcourt metropolis. Cross-sectional survey design was adopted while data were collected from 234 participants using validated scales. Data were analyzed using multiple regression and independent samples t-test to test two hypotheses at p =.001 level of significance. The result revealed that social media and peer pressure jointly predicted substance abuse behaviour among study participants (R2 = .730, F= 6.724, p =.001). Further result showed that peer pressure independently predicted substance abuse behaviour among youths in the study samples (β-= -.147, t = -2.088, p = .026) while social media did not (β = -.841, t = -1.118, p > .05). It is concluded that social media and peer pressure are good predictors of substance abuse behaviour. Therefore, the study concluded that parents, governmental agencies and other stakeholders should work in unison to reduce factors that increase substance abuse behaviour among youths in the study population.

Abstract

Employees’ performance has been used as a standard of measurement in both private and public organizations. Studies on what would make employees’ to put in their best in their organizations have produced varying results. Therefore, this study was carried out to investigate work-life balance and job satisfaction as predictors of employees’ performance among workers in tertiary institutions in Rivers State, Nigeria. Cross-sectional survey design was utilized while purposive sampling technique was adopted to select the study populations. Data were collected from 280 participants using validated scales and analyzed using multiple regression to test one hypothesis which was accepted at p < .001 level of significance. The result demonstrated that work-life balance and job satisfaction jointly predicted employee performance among workers in tertiary institutions in Rivers State R2= .461, F(2, 277) = 105.803, p <.001. Furthermore, work-life balance (β = .466, p <.001) and job satisfaction (β = .370, p <.001) independently predicted employees’ performance among study participants. The study concludes that work-life balance and job satisfaction are robust predictors among study participants. It is recommended that these institutions should put in place enabling policies that would enhance good work-life balance and job satisfaction to improve workers’ performance.
