Abstract: A systematic understanding is suggested about the conditions, mechanisms, influences, and processes evolving into a creative behavior in music, based on interdisciplinary perspectives of the cognitive sciences: developmental psychology, neuroscience, music psychology, emotions research, and creativity research in general and in music. The focus is on so-called musical extrapolations processes which bring the elusive quality of music into mental existence by creating extrapolations about: first, possible future occurring events; second, their musical meanings; and third, the meanings of their interrelations. These processes, involved while music is being listened to and composed, are defined as the result of implicit and explicit problem-solving processes which are tangibly guided by factors of: intrinsic activities and motivation, pre-disposed and experience-based structures, and environmental pressure. This so-called Model of Musical Extrapolations structures a new perspective in research, and furthermore, provides an enormous potential for future extensions, not least because an enhanced perspective is opened about the complexity of highly creative and parallel processes organizing sounds while listening to what is called music, as well as musical ideas while composing.

Abstract: Cigarette smoking is one of the public health problems which killed about 100 million people in the 20th century and supposed to kill about one billion people in the 21st century if the pattern of its consumption continues. Currently the prevalence of smoking is increasing at the global level and highly associated with increased rate of mortality and morbidity. The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of smoking and its associated factors among undergraduate students of Jigjiga University. A descriptive institutional based cross sectional study design was employed on 648 students. Self-administered structured questionnaire which was adopted and developed from different previously conducted studies was used to collect data. Data were entered using epi data 3.1 and exported to SPSS version 16.0 for further analysis. Descriptive statistics were done in the form of graphs and tables to summarize data. Data were analysed through univariate for frequencies, and percentage; bivariate analysis to see association between dependent and independent variables and logistic regression to see the independent effect of selected variables on the status of substance using odds ratio. From the total study participants 87 (14.5%) of them smokes and 32 (36.8%) of them smokes greater 12 than cigarettes per week. students at 3rd year of study were at higher chance of smoking cigarette, AOR=17.89 (95% CI=5.21, 61.42), and the odds of smoking cigarette was higher among year 4 and above students comparing with those at year 2, AOR=30.08 (95% CI=6.56, 137.21). Similarly students who chew khat were about 27 times likely to smoke, AOR 27.23 (95% CI=9.47, 78.31) compared with those who didn’t chew khat. Generally the prevalence of smoking among undergraduate Jigjiga university students was 14.5%. Student’s cigarette smoking was significantly associated to year of study; students ever khat chewing habit, ever drinking alcohol and ever drug use.
