The present study explains economic discomfort, financial shocks, and rapid urbanization increase crime in a country. Furthermore, this research work highlights the extent to which economic misery and an increase in urbanization create countless socioeconomic problems in society. The study used annual time series secondary data for the period 1990 to 2021 collected from different sources. Researchers have found very limited evidence of economic misery and crime in the existing literature on Pakistan. Thus, carrying out research work on the subject was the need of the day. The foremost objective of the research work was to examine crime rates in the presence of economic misery, as denoted by Hanke's Annual Misery Index (HAMI) and urbanization in Pakistan. The stationarity of the data has been checked by correlogram and Ljung-Box (LB) statistics. The study used an Autoregressive Distributed Lags approach to investigate how economic misery and urbanization affect criminal activity in Pakistan. The crime model produced substantial results, and the outcomes are consistent with the expectations. The findings revealed that the HAMI and urbanization coefficients are significant with a positive sign, implying that economic hardship and an increase in urban population have exacerbated Pakistan's crime rate. To control crimes, the government might have to adopt new strategies that may decrease economic misery, i.e., keep inflation at a desirable level, reduce unemployment, improve economic growth, and discourage urbanization.

Due to increased complexity of financial instruments, the role of investors' bias in investment decision making has enhanced. To study this role, the present study aims identify the causes of behavioral biases which affect investment decision making. The main parameters of the study are home bias, disposition effect, herding bias, conformation bias and anchoring bias. The research design is exploratory in nature which will help to investigate the causes of behavioral biases that affect the investment decision making of individuals. The qualitative design was employed to get insights by conducting sixteen in-depth semi-structured interviews from individual investors. First and second order codes assigned to data mainly came from literature review. Researchers found that home bias, disposition effect, herding effect was quite evident in Pakistani Investor. However, anchoring bias has been found in half of the participants and confirmation bias not evident in Pakistani investors. The study has various implications for investors and academicians which will help to expand the scope of the future studies and generalizability by addressing the limitation of the current study.

This study examines recent conceptual advances in workplace deviance constructs through a systematic literature review (SLR). This study also focuses on particular types of deviant behavior at work which have been studied more frequently since last seven years and whether they include interpersonal or organizational forms of workplace deviance. The study also investigated mediating and moderating variables of workplace deviance. An SLR included Scopus and Web of Science database articles published between 2015 and 2022. This evidence suggests that interpersonal forms of deviant work behavior, rather than organizational forms, have received more attention in recent studies. In terms of antecedents, the findings indicate that personality factors remain prevalent. The study has both theoretical and practical limitations.
本研究通过系统的文献回顾(SLR)来研究工作场所偏差建构的最新概念进展。本研究还侧重于特定类型的工作偏差行为,这些行为在过去七年中得到了更频繁的研究,以及它们是否包括人际或组织形式的工作场所偏差。本研究还探讨了工作偏差的中介和调节变量。单反包括2015年至2022年间发表的Scopus和Web of Science数据库文章。这一证据表明,在最近的研究中,人际形式的异常工作行为,而不是组织形式的异常工作行为,受到了更多的关注。就前因而言,研究结果表明,性格因素仍然普遍存在。该研究存在理论和实践上的局限性。

The education industry plays a vital role in social development. However, employees’ job turnover is challenging as it involves massive human and institutional financial costs. This research paper innovates by exploring the linkage between social support, sexual harassment, job stress, and job turnover intention amid COVID-19 crisis. The study examines how social support moderates the relationship between job stress, sexual harassment, and job turnover intention among educators teaching faculty members. The investigators applied the technique based on convenient sampling with a cross-sectional design for desired data collection. The study received 200 respondents' feedback from 10 January 2021 to 31 August 2021. (Male teachers, n= 100; female teachers, n=100) and their ages range from 25 to 59 years. The score was M=25.25, and the standard deviation score was SD=10.24. The data reports on the teachers' responses received from various public and private universities in Rawalpindi and the Federal city of Islamabad, Pakistan. The study's results indicate that sexual harassment statistically correlates positively with employees' work stress and job intention turnover. However, it correlates negatively among teachers with social support. The results exhibit that employees' job stress predicts job turnover intention positively and significantly. The study shows that social support moderates the association between sexual harassment, job stress, and teachers' job turnover intention. This research will help raise awareness of severe problems in the workplace. The educational environment would also help address this severe problem in Pakistan's academic and other industries

In the current study, relevant determinants of economic growth in Pakistan were examined from 1981 to 2020. The results of the BDS non-linearity test corroborate the non-linearity of the data, and the Markov regime-switching model is applied. In both regimes, the real effective exchange rate (RER), inflation (CPI), and potential output gap have a positive impact on economic growth, whereas openness has a negative impact. Furthermore, in high growth regimes, interest rates (CMR) have a positive relationship with economic growth, but in low growth regimes, they have a negative relationship. Based on the study's empirical findings, it is advised that policymakers examine the nonlinear nature of macroeconomics. This will aid in the formulation of better policiesfor economic growth. Further, it is recommended that policymakers take measures to reduce the heat of the economy through demand management policy. This policy may hurt other sectors of the economy negatively which does not contribute to heating the economy.

This exploration talks about the effect of online marketing on strengthening BA and BI on advancing CBE in the clothing industry of Pakistan. The significant focal point of doing this examination was to break down how unique SMM (SMM) segments significantly affect building up CBE (CBE) and brand knowledge. This exploration incorporates three independent factors, one mediating variable and two dependent factors. The independent factors included customization, trendiness and EWOM (EWOM). The mediating variable was CBE and the dependent factors were BA and BI. The assortment of the information was brought out through an online survey made on Google forms and had 248 respondents. The information gathered was examined through programming called SPSS, and distinctive measurable tests. The after effects of these tests showed that the components EWOM, Trendiness and customization do play a significant part in building up BA and image. The study could be additionally improved in the event that we center around more factors and another various area of Pakistan for investigating the effect of social media.

The present study was conducted to scrutinize the effect of work life balance and jobperformance on life satisfaction among Police Officers. The main objectives of the study were to examine the impact of work life balance and job performance on life satisfaction among Police Officers of two districts Attock and Rawalpindi on the basis of demographic variables like, gender, marital status, districts and designation. Purposive sampling technique was used to collect data. The sample comprised of 150 Police Officers (50 females and 100 male) had been taken from two districts of Punjab province. Correlation, t-test and regression analysis were used to test the hypotheses. Results of correlation analysis showed that job performance, life satisfaction and work life balance were positively correlated with each other. Results of regression analysis showed that work life balance and job performance were significant predictors of life satisfaction. ttest indicated significant difference among male and female police officers on job performance. A significant difference with respect to designation of police officers on life satisfaction declared that high designated police officers scored higher on life satisfaction than low designated police officers, while non-significant difference was shown among single and married police officers on study variables. Further significant differences with respect to districts of Punjab Police Officers on work life balance, job performance and life satisfaction were obtained. The Rawalpindi district Police officers scored higher on work life balance, job performance and life satisfaction than Attock district Police Officers
