Item Contribution of Some Identified Variables to Females’ Participation in Literacy Programme in Southwestern Nigeria(School of Doctoral Studies European Union, Brussels, Belgium, 2012-01-30) ABOLADE, ADESUBOMI DUPEWomen seem to be fewer in social and political activities in Nigeria; this could be a function of literacy level which seems to be lower among females than it is among their male counterparts. The purpose of this study therefore, was to investigate the contribution of some identified variables that could determine females’ participation in literacy programme for their overall development. Women in the Southwest Nigeria were the target population, four out of six states in Southwestern Nigeria were selected for the study and 2,400 females in basic literacy class were selected out of 6,535 learners through a simple random sampling procedure. Data were collected using “Literacy Assessment Scale (LAS)” (Adepoju, 2001) ;( r=0.72). The results showed that each of the seven identified variables: age, marital status, occupation, number of children per family, cultural demands, socio-economic status and locality (t=2.8, significance of 0.005, p<0.05; t=2.3 significance of 0.02, p<0.05; t=-0.08, significance of 0.93, p>0.05; t=-4.5,significance of 0.00, p<0.05; t=4.36, significance 0.00, p<0.05; t=48.0 significance of 0.00, p<0.05; t=6.0 significance of 0.00, p<0.05) contributed differentially and that occupation, one of the variables, did not contribute significantly. Socio-economic status with: (β=0.705, t=48.0, p<0.05) was the most important of all the variables. It was concluded that some factors would motivate females to participate in literacy programmes, it was therefore recommended that these identified variables(age, marital status, occupation, number of children per family, cultural demands, socio-economic status and locality) should be taken into consideration by planners and other stake holders when planning literacy programmes for females in any given community so that the target population might be able to participate maximally in the programmes to enhance the much needed development for the females and the communityItem Impact of Selected Factors on Employees’ Satisfaction and Organisational Performance(Faculty of Business and Management of Brno University of Technology, 2020-07-01) ABOLADE, ADESUBOMI DUPEPurpose of the article: The general objective of this study was to examine the impact of working tools, training, organisation’s physical environment, organisational communication and organisational structure on employees’ job satisfaction and organisational performance.

It looked at organisational communication and its role in labour relations between the parties involved in Labour relations for better business procedures and relationships. It explained the importance of organisational communication in enhancing better labour relations within the organisation and with people outside the organisation. It enumerated the various groups that are involved in industrial relations and how they could use organisational communication for better industrial relations. It established the importance of organisational communication to the overall success of any organisation. Communication is vital to all human relations including labour relations but it seems to have been taken for granted or treated as inconsequential. When good organisational communication is not given its pride of place in organisation, it would affect labour relations negatively. This paper looked at the importance of organisational communication to labour relations, its effects on organisational performance, and negative effects of lack of good communication between stakeholders in labour relations and concluded that organisational communication should be properly used by all concerned in industrial relation matters for better performance of the organisation and improved labour relations both within and outside the organisation.Item ROLES OF INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIP IN NIGERIAN CONTEMPORARY ORGANISATIONS(UNIOSUN: International Journal of Business Administration, 2018-04-30) ABOLADE, ADESUBOMI DUPE
