This study investigated the attitude of mobile telecommunication subscribers towards SIM card registration in Lagos Metropolis, Nigeria. The theories of planned behaviour and reasoned action were adapted for the study because they provide the necessary constructs that help to investigate the attitudes of telecommunication subscribers. The purposive sampling technique was adopted in selecting five local government areas within Lagos. Random sampling method was used to select 300 mobile phone subscribers. In total, 290 responses were collected and were found usable. Data analysis was performed using statistical methods, and Spearman's correlation analysis was used to test relationship between the variables of interest. The results of the study revealed that SIM card users have positive attitude towards SIM card registration. Perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use significantly influenced subscribers attitude towards SIM card registration with both of them having negative significant relationship with attitude towards registration (r = -.116, r = -.132, p < 0.05) respectively.Article Citation - Scopus: 3How Attitudes Towards E-Learning Affected the Academic Achievement During the Covid-19 Pandemic: an Example of a Nursing Skills Teaching(Anadolu Universitesi, 2023) Kisacik,O.G.; Sonmez,M.; Ozdas,A.It is known that the students’ attitudes toward e-learning are an important factor in achieving the targeted learning achievement. The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between attitudes toward e-learning and the academic achievements. This cross-sectional and correlational study was conducted with a total of 135 first-year nursing students. Data were collected via Student Information Form, General Attitudes toward E-Learning Scale, Vital Signs Skills Laboratory Practice Assessment Videos. Two-Way ANOVA, Pearson correlation analysis, multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze the data. The total mean score of the first-year NSs’ general attitude scale toward e-learning was found to be 52.58±15.93. A statistically negative correlation was found between the “avoidance of e-learning” factor and the NSs’ vital signs skills general achievement scores (r= -0.185; p=.035). Gender (β1= 5.399, p= 0.001), receiving adequate counseling and help on using the e-learning platform (β1= 4.895, p= 0.022) and avoidance of e-learning (β1= -0.222 p= 0.046) explained 20.9% of the variance in vital signs overall achievement score. The results showed that negative attitudes and negative satisfaction with e-learning may lead to a decrease in e-learning academic achievement. © 2023,Turkish Online Journal of Distance Education.All Rights Reserved.Article Citation - WoS: 1How Attitudes Towards E-Learning Affected the Academic Achievement During the Covid-19 Pandemic: an Example of a Nursing Skills Teaching(Anadolu Univ, 2023) Gurlek Kisacik, Oznur; Sonmez, Munevver; Ozdas, AzizeIt is known that the students' attitudes toward e-learning are an important factor in achieving the targeted learning achievement.
