Item Item reduction of the vedic personality inventory in males(SVYASA, 2022-04-08) Richa Rawal; Rajesh S. K.; Judu IlavarasuItem Measuring Guna Prevalence with REG - A Pilot Study(2012-12) Rao, VasudevaObjective: To find any possible correlation between REG output and nature (Guna) of group events by studying the patterns in the REG bit-stream output. Method: 4-bit Pattern frequencies among REG bit-stream outputs* of different types of events were compared. The events that were compared are 1) An action-entertainer movie (Rajas predominant) 2) Religious rituals - Homas (Sattva predominant) 3) A controlled environment where there was least human activity in the vicinity (Tamas predominant) and 4) Stage performances including dances and dramas (Mixture of different themes). Pattern frequencies among REG bit-stream outputs of four REG devices that ran simultaneously in the movie were also compared. Results: Each category of events showed a distinct data signature in terms of the frequency of pattern occurrence. Exciting scenes from the movie showed significantly high 0 flipped** (p<0.0054) and 3 flipped (p<0.0001) patterns. Homas showed significantly low 0 flipped (p<0.0001) patterns. Inactivity (control REG) showed significantly low 3 flipped patterns (p<0.0003). For the same set of exciting scenes of the movie, outputs of REG devices agreed with each other to an extent of 91.5% in terms of the pattern frequency analysis. Conclusion: The study indicates a certain degree of correlation between the Gunas i.e. the nature of the event and the frequency of the 4-bit patterns in the REG output. Different REG devices run simultaneously show similarities in their pattern frequency.Item Relationship between Yogic Personality (Guna) and Psychological Well-Being(S-VYASA, 2014-07-13) Singh, RahulCONTEXT: According the scripture, Gueas are the fundamental ways by which a man's thought and deeds are guided. Study of Gueas plays a very important role in yoga research. AIMS: Examine the relationship between “yogic personality (Gueas) and psychological wellbeing” SETTINGS AND DESIGN: This is a cross sectional study comprised of 284 samples (74 females and 210 males). Participants’ age ranged between 18 to 65 years with a mean age of 25.23 years (SD±8.77). The subjects were from Alwar District Rajasthan India. Who were the students of graduation and post graduation studies at Siddhi Vinak College, Government Higher Secondary School and local participants. METHODS AND MATERIAL: Participants were given questionnaire packets including demographic details, Vedic Personality Inventory, Mindfulness Attention Awareness Scale, General Health Questionnaire and Positive affect and Negative affect Scale RESULTS: Cronbach’s α for the H-VPI indicate adequate internal consistency ranging from .69 to .91. Mindfulness was correlated positively (r=.36) with Sattava and negatively with Rajas (r=-.19 and Tamas(r=-.36). Psychological distress was correlated negatively with Sattava(r=-.45) and positively with Rajas (r=.33) and Tamas (r=.37). Positive affect was correlated positively with Sattava(r=.19) and negatively with Rajas(r=-.10) and Tamas(r=-.19). Negative affect was correlated negatively with Sattava (r=-.38), and positively with Rajas(r=.22), and Tamas(r=.36). CONCLUSIONS: In summary, the current study found that the Vedic Personality Inventory (Hindi version) has adequate reliability and good Construct validity. This questionnaire will be very useful in assessing yogic personality (Gueas) for especially Hindi people.Item Measuring Guna Prevalence with REG - A Pilot Study(SVYASA, 2013-01-12) Vasudeva RaoTo find any possible correlation between REG output and nature (Guna) of group events by studying the patterns in the REG bit-stream output.
