Glycemic Index of Five Ghanaian Corn and Cassava Staples
(2019-09-10) Yeboah, Eunice Serwaa; Agbenorhevi, K. Jacob; Sampson, Gilbert Owiah
Glycemic index (GI) quantifies and measures the blood glucose raising effect of a food containing a specific amount of carbohydrate. Due to this concerns have been raised on the quality of carbohydrate and the indices that influence its metabolism. The objective of study was to investigate the effect of processing on the glycemic index of five Ghanaian corn and cassava staples. The research design was a cross over trial. Ten healthy subjects consisting of five males and five females were included in the study. Study subjects were served 50g of pure glucose containing 50g of available carbohydrate and 200ml of pure water. Glucose which served as the reference food was given to subjects on two different occasions. The subjects were also served specific 50g of abolo, akple, kafa, local kokonte and processed kokonte on specific days. The glycemic index figures were assessed by using official methods and reported as mean for the ten study subjects. Locally made kokonte had the least GI of 7 followed by processed kokonte which had a GI of 18 whiles kafa had a low GI of 29. Abolo had a medium GI value of 58 and akple also had a medium glycemic index value of 69. There was no significant difference between the GI of locally made kokonte and processed kokonte (p > 0.05) indicating processing had no significant effect on the GI of kokonte.

SentiTAM: Sentiments centered integrated framework for mobile learning adaptability in higher education
(2023) Qazi, A.; Hasan. N.; Owusu-Ansah, C.M.; Dey, S. K.; Haruna, K.
Online communities provide facilities to share public opinions and or sentiments on a wide range of subjects, from routine topics to vital issues of critical interest. Nowadays, many higher education institutions (HEIs) recognize the value of students’ sentiments and evaluate users’ concerns for the successful adaptation of mobile learning applications (MLAs). While digital learning has been extensively studied previously, little has been known about why MLA is underutilized. Therefore, this study extends the literature by proposing the SentiTAM model underlying technology acceptance model (TAM), and students’ sentiments on MLA platforms. A self-administered cross-sectional survey of 350 MLA users’ data was analyzed through structural equation modeling (SEM) using the AMOS package program. In addition, we have performed sentiment analysis on students’ opinions gathered through Google discussion forums and Twitter. The results show that MLA use intention is strongly influenced by sentiments and self-motivation, while perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use directly influence MLA usage. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first attempt in MLA that investigates several vital factors, including sentiments as a multi-perspective tool and motivational factors with core constructs of TAM. The findings assist developing countries make smart decisions about how to use MLA with emerging technology.
