“…A high positive correlation was found between the consciousness and academic achievement of graduates ('r' = 0.73) and post graduates ('r'= 0.86). A study conducted by Brazdau (2011) on 138 participants from the ecological university of Bucharest, Romania, confirms the influence of consciousness coefficient in the academic performance appraisal. Present study also confirms the fact that consciousness increases with the increase in the level of education.…”

“…According to him 'we cannot shun the study of human experience simply because it is difficult', this proposition has led to the development of interest in the science of consciousness. Brazdau (2011) refers to consciousness as most mysterious subjective phenomenon ever experienced by human beings. The concept of consciousness and the topic of states of consciousness was highly debated topic in last century in various disciplines such as Science, Psychology, Neuroscience, Psychiatry, Philosophy and Quantum Physics.…”

The present empirical study was designed to study the correlation between the academic achievement and consciousness at two different educational levels of the university. The study was a non-experimental correlation study which was conducted on 150 students (75 graduates, 75 post graduates) of Faculty of Education, Dayalbagh Educational Institute, Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India. The number of male and female students was in the ratio of 65:35. A willing participation of the students in the study was sought. Consciousness Quotient Inventory by Brazdau (2008) was used to assess consciousness quotient of the university students at two different educational levels (i.e. graduation and post-graduation). To measure the academic achievement of the students, students' scores of internal and external assessment at the university were considered. Pearson's Product Moment Correlation was used to find out correlation between the scores of Academic achievement and consciousness quotient. Results indicated a significant positive correlation between academic achievement and Consciousness of the students at the two educational levels at the university. Moreover, results indicated the rise in consciousness level with the rise in the educational level at the University. At the end of the paper, educational implications of the study are provided for the teachers, educators, administrators and other people associated with the field of education.

“…This theory was introduced by (Brazdau, 2013). Conscious quotient was defined as the level of consciousness that is experienced in the morning, 1/2-2 hour after an individual wakes up, without being exposed to a stimulus like radio, TV, coffee talking among others (Brazdau,o.,& Mihai, 2011).this implies that the conscious of the peace makers need to assessed for the purpose of identifying their conscious experience to enable a particular organization or individuals to build confidence on their work. According to Brazdua, individuals with higher conscious quotient level shave their ability to access and process information simultaneously at greater rates, while those with lower level conscious quotient levels access and process information at lower levels (Brazdau,o.,& Mihai, 2011) therefore this implies that the conscious level of the leaders should be measured adequately to determine their competency , skills and knowledge that they possess while contributing to the peace building in Somalia and other conflict affected areas.…”

The general objective of the study is used to analyze the effects of conscious leadership on peace building in Mogadishu, Somalia. The specific objectives sought to find out the effects of administrative conscious leadership, enabling conscious leadership, adaptive conscious leadership, and transformational conscious leadership on peace building in Mogadishu, Somalia. The methodology was used descriptive research design, target population of 135 respondents and a sample size of 105 respondents. Open and closed-ended Questionnaires have been used in data collection and lastly the data collection used to analyze quantitatively and qualitatively and presented in form of tables, using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) software. The correlation of study that seem positive relationship because large number of relationship the correlation of effect of conscious leadership and respondent effectiveness the current study wished to investigate the influence of effect of conscious leadership dimensions of peace building in respondent in Mogadishu, Somalia. Three hypotheses were developed after reviewing the literature, to test the research hypotheses were employed the linear regression analysis. The researcher checked regression assumptions before taking place to further analysis. The dependent variable respondent performance was normally distributed across all independent variable. No violation was observed after checking the outliers, linearity and colinearity (r=.794: p=.000) that indicated positive relationship because number of correlation between variables .794 ** the correlation between variables seem positive significant. Having described the study variables using descriptive statistics, the study sought to establish the leadership consideration on peace building in Somalia. The study sought to establish the bivariate nature of both dependent and independent variables. The strength of the relationship, a bivariate correlation analysis was used. Linear multiple regression analysis was further used to establish the nature of the relationship. The 5% level of significance was taken as the p-value was less than 0.05.

“…A significant number of empirical studies have been conducted in last two decades exploring the relationship of consciousness with other mental constructs and behaviours. Consciousness has been found to predict academic achievement (Brazdau & Mihai, 2011) and mental constructs such as learning, attention, perception (Grossberg, 1999), creativity and imagination (Das & Sharma, 2013), intelligence, learning ability, and intellectual performance (So, 1995). It has a role in determining the fundamental aspects of education such as degree of creativity, confidence and motivation (Sharma, 2008).…”

The present paper is an empirical account of the relationship between conscious experience and executive functioning. Over the years, there has been a long debate but no common consensus on the functional aspect of consciousness has been arrived at. This may be due to lack of empirical studies in this direction. The present descriptive study on 200 adolescents examines the relationship between two executive functions (self-regulation and cognitive flexibility) and conscious experience, which were explored with the Consciousness Quotient inventory (CQI). The findings reveal a significant positive correlation between the consciousness quotient and the two executive functions. Through regression analysis, it has been shown that consciousness quotient is a predictor of both self-regulation and cognitive flexibility. Future prospects and educational implications in light of the results have been discussed.
