The first phase was designed to study the leadership of Thai SMEs entrepreneurs, and the second phase was to develop new leadership through training. In the first phase three sample sets were used. In the first sample set, the data were collected from 30 successful SMEs entrepreneurs using in-depth interview and critical incident technique (CIT). The data were analyzed to generate items of leadership scale for Thai SMEs entrepreneurs. The pilot 120-item leadership scale was tried out on the second sample set that consist of 544 SMEs entrepreneurs. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was used to explore the dimensions underlying the leadership scale. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used as a follow-up to determine the definite number of factors. Six factors resulting from CFA were 1) encouragement through inspirational motivation of subordinates, 2) consideration and well wishing towards others, 3) morality in business, 4) capability of strategic thinking, 5) encouragement of social consciousness, and 6) openness. The final 30-item leadership scale was validated with the third sample set that consisted of 1,064 SMEs entrepreneurs. The known-group technique was used to test the construct validity using the success of the entrepreneurs as the criterion. The results indicated that the leadership scores for all 6 factors from the highly successful SMEs entrepreneurs were statistically higher than the scores from the less successful SMEs entrepreneurs. In the second phase new direction for developing leadership of Thai SME entrepreneurs was proposed through the training course developed from Phase 1. The Training Workshop for Developing SME Entrepreneurs' Leadership was developed from theories, concepts, research findings, and various documents relevant to leadership development and designing of training course. After development, the training course was reviewed and quality was assessed by a team of experts. There were 3 stages in the training course; that was, assessment before training, leadership development by training, and evaluation after training. The course was organized into 9 modules. After the training, two meetings were held to monitor and evaluate the progress of leadership development plan, to let them share their experiences with each other, to advise them on how to solve the problems during implementing the plan, and to adapt their plan accordingly.

An important perspective is that of the health care providers, who play an important role in any society as they take care of the health problems and the needs of the sick. Working in this profession requires a spirit of empathy and selflessness while providing service, and often stirs the spiritual component within the service provider. This paper is a part of an extensive research project initiated in by a non government organization to investigate the concept of spirituality, its causes and consequences from the perspective of health care workers in Thailand. A research sample of fifty persons was selected to be representative of all the four regions of Thailand. Qualitative techniques were used to research and analyze the meaning, causes and consequences of spirituality. The findings of this research showed that the participants ...

Also, we have reported the transition wavelengths, oscillator strengths, transition probabilities and line strengths for the electric dipole (E1), magnetic dipole (M1), electric quadrupole (E2), and magnetic quadrupole (M2) transition from the 4s24p5 configuration. We have compared our calculated results with the other available experimental and theoretical results. The excellent agreement observed between our new results and those obtained using different approaches confirm the quality of our results. PACS Nos.: 32.70.Cs, 32.10.Fn.

Teachers and Health care workers play an important role in any society as they provide service for the problems and the needs of children and patients. Working in these professions requires a spirit of empathy and selflessness while providing service, and often stirs the spiritual component within the service provider. This chapter is based on an extensive research project initiated by a non-governmental organization to investigate a construction of spirituality, its process from the perspective of teachers and health care workers in Thailand. A research sample of 100 teachers and health care workers were purposively selected from four regions of Thailand. For this qualitative research design, the grounded theory method was used for understanding the social construction of spiritua...

The focus of this study was to test the structural equation model of causes and consequences of depression and anxiety disorder. Data was collected using interviews from questionnaires with 450 at risk elderly and their care givers from 5 provinces around Thailand. The hypothesized model was based on a framework that included psycho-social factors, knowledge-skills-attitude, and social support as the causes; and subjective well-being as an effect of depression and anxiety. A significant implication of the findings is that this research provides empirical evidence about the similarities and differences in the causes of depression and anxiety disorders.

The sample consisted of nineteen grade 5 students in a primary school located in Bangkok Metropolitan identified as underachieving. The research design used in the study was a combination of a quasi-experimental and ABA design. Learning behavioral forms were used to collect the data and two-way MANOVA with repeated measures was the statistical technique used for data analysis. The results were that both programs applying self-regulation in combination with teachers’ social support and the program applying only self-regulation were significantly effective in improving individual students’ in-class and after-class behaviors. Furthermore, there was no significant difference in effectiveness between the two programs. Keywords: learning behavior, self-regulation, social suppor...

However, women with disabilities cannot fully enjoy such rights due to physical barriers, information barriers and attitudinal barriers. Compared with men, women with disabilities have less access to education, employment and health services, including reproductive health services on the ground of gender as well as disabilities. Women with disabilities are more vulnerable to physical, mental and sexual abuse than those without disabilities. In many cases, they cannot avoid or stop the situations because they rely on the abusers for financial and other kinds of support and are afraid of being deprived from the support they need. Other barriers include poverty, lack of awareness on their own rights, and inability to access support system when being abused. For female adolescents with disabilities, the problems they encounter are somewhat similar to those without disabili-ties, for example, lack of knowledge and proper understanding on ...
