This study aims to examine the role of rational and emotional content in social media on consumer engagement and EWOM intention. The population of this research is e-commerce social media users with a total sample size of 394 respondents using the purposive sampling technique. The Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Model (PLS-SEM) is used to test the research hypothesis. The results of the study revealed the role of rational and emotional content in influencing consumer engagement but did not affect EWOM intention. Consumer engagement affects EWOM intentions. The study’s findings support consumer engagement which is proven to mediate the relationship between rational and emotional content and EWOM intention. Social media marketing practitioners use rational and emotional content types on their brand pages in order to gain engagement and EWOM from social media users.

The research aims to identify the key drivers and barriers to EV adoption, inform policymakers and guide future research in the Philippines. The study used a descriptive survey method with 150 Metro Manila car dealership customers as respondents. The research findings indicate that single-family homeowners are willing to invest in EVs if charging infrastructure is available at home. EV safety, dependability, power, performance, design and availability are crucial for increasing EV adoption. Awareness and incentives were identified as hindrances to adoption. The research suggests that technical fixes and policy tools are needed to promote EV adoption and knowledge sharing is necessary to raise customer awareness. A neural network model was created to determine the willingness to purchase an EV. The findings have implications for policymakers, EV manufacturers and stakeholders interested in understanding barriers to EV adoption. The research highlights the importance of safety, reliability and environmental benefits in joint household purchase decisions. The study identifies economic, technological, policy, infrastructure and social barriers to EV adoption and suggests the need for targeted initiatives and information dissemination to overcome these barriers. The report acknowledges limitations and offers avenues for future research to explore additional factors and variables influencing EV adoption.

The endowments of resources, institutional management and a household's capacity to handle challenges and unexpected events all contribute to their resilience and well-being. Unfortunately, many people in developing countries are vulnerable to episodes of shock and trapped in a vicious cycle of deprivations that hinder their ability to recover from shocks. This study examined how households’ resilience capability was affected by different resilience pillars and indicators, the pattern of resilience heterogeneity and the relative impact of those pillars on households’ resilience capability in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa. A data set from the 2021 South African General Household Survey comprising 1499 households was used. The data were analyzed with the FAO’s Shiny RIMA tool and structural equation modeling technique. Findings revealed an estimated general household resilience capacity index of 44.88 which appeared low. The results also indicated that adaptive capability or stability is weakly related to and the least significant pillar in terms of its contribution to households' resilience capacity while the social safety net pillar is highly linked to and the most important pillar contributing to households’ resilience capacity. The contributions of the access to basic services and asset endowments pillars were shown to be crucial in reducing inequality in households’ resilience capacity. There was also clear evidence of heterogeneity in households’ resilience capacity. SEM analysis revealed that access to basic services, the social safety net and households’ attributes had a significant impact on households’ resilience capacity. Policy target actions are needed in areas where capacities are lacking or insufficient while the pillars that performed well should also be prioritized for building sustained households’ resilience capacity.

The small restaurant business (SRB) sector is applauded for promoting economic growth and employment creation in developing economies. Despite the spirited efforts by developing nations to capacitate the sector to sustainably contribute to economic growth, it is often flawed by a high inflation failure rate, especially in South Africa. The failure rates have been attributed, among many other factors, to the inability of small restaurant businesses to respond to environmental uncertainties with appropriate employee-resourcing strategies. The literature search shows that there is a dearth of research on the nexus between environmental influences and employee-resourcing strategies in South African small restaurant businesses. To address this gap, the study attempts to interrogate employee-resourcing strategies among family-owned small restaurants through the prism of environmental influences. A quantitative research approach was used, and the ex post facto research design was adopted. A convenient sample of 221 owners/managers of family-owned accommodations and Small Restaurant Businesses was conveniently selected. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) was employed to confirm the congruence between observed and reproduced data in testing the hypothesized relationships. The inquiry established a positive relationship between internal environmental influences and employee-resourcing strategies in SRBs. Additionally, a positive and strong relationship between the external environment and employee-resourcing strategies was also established. Considering the vitality of small businesses in driving today’s economies and employment growth, this study recommends that owners/managers identify internal and external forces that attenuate small business failures. The study also emphasizes that SRBs must understand their external and internal environments for more productive employee-resourcing strategies.

This study aimed to explore the challenges faced by public school teachers in Bauko District II in developing instructional materials. The researchers used a quantitative method and distributed questionnaires to 150 teachers across the district as their primary means of data collection. This method allowed the researchers to gain insights from a substantial number of teachers, facilitating a comprehensive understanding of the challenges they faced. The results of the study highlighted two primary critical issues faced by teachers: the scarcity of time due to heavy workloads and the difficulty of keeping pace with technological advancements. Additionally, teachers reported significant challenges related to insufficient skills, knowledge and understanding of instructional materials, limited policy support and inadequate administrative assistance. In accordance with these findings, the study demonstrated some significant ways to improve the creation of instructional materials in rural communities with limited resources. The study emphasised the need for computer literacy training as a result of the expanding digitalization of instructional content. A functional instructional material development committee should be established to improve the process as well as organizing training workshops for instructional material development and encouraging partnerships with higher education institutions (HEIs) to gain access to specialized expertise. The study strongly advocates for the implementation of sustainable capacity-building mechanisms by the department of education such as regular workshops and follow-up sessions to provide continuous support to teachers in material development. Moreover, the study proposed fostering collaboration with other institutions and inviting experts as resource persons to seminars and workshops to enhance teachers' proficiency in crafting effective instructional materials.

The evaluation of a teacher's performance is conducted subjectively rather than objectively to determine the students' educational experience and the demands placed on them by the university which provides teachers with a backup plan. The objective of this research is to analyze and describe the perspectives on teaching performance after COVID-19. A conventional, anonymous and voluntary sample of 2263 university students from state and private universities was used in the quantitative approach of a descriptive correlational type. Teaching performance was assessed using a questionnaire with 20 items that were divided into five categories: explanation of criteria, illustration, supervision of practice and learning activities, feedback and evaluation. The findings of the research show that there is good virtual teaching performance. The university teacher shows that they are able to teach in a hybrid way. A Cronbach's alpha of 0.946 was obtained and several statistical tests were performed such as total mean (3.733), standard deviation (1.064), ANOVA with Turkey's non-additivity test (sum of squares 81.102, gl=19, F=12. 035), Hoteling’s t-squared test (283.464, F=14.800, Sig. 0.000), KMO and Bartlett's test (KMO=0.977), Bartlett's test of sphericity with chi-square 52808.872, gl=190, Sig. 0.000. University professors demonstrated a good teaching performance in front of students, having empathy with their students and managing to place themselves among people with digital competences and within the society of the digital world.

The value of designers is determined by market-based compensation which reflects the status of the design industry, the career paths of designers, reform directions in design education and the deconstruction of design skills. This article aims to elucidate designers' requirements, responsibilities and compensation by scrutinizing online job advertisements. Previous studies have focused on macro design aspects such as propaganda and procedural methods, neglecting individual designers' compensation and treatment. This study used Python technology to search for online job and analyzed 1,108 good job postings using content analysis and descriptive statistics. Additionally, interviews were conducted to investigate the skill requirements of company designers. The findings revealed vital skill points that contribute to increased salaries for designers. High-paid designers possess core skills in managing design strategies and business processes. Middle-paid designers demonstrate abilities in executing design projects and working in teams. Low-paid designers perform better and have better software capabilities. The research’s findings guide students in choosing their majors and research options and identify core skills for designers already in the workforce. Furthermore, this study offers objective data for enterprise talent acquisition and development strategies.

Cash transfers have become an important tool for reducing poverty and improving the well-being of households in many developing countries including South Africa. However, cash transfers' effects on household quality of life are still debatable. This study examined the relationship between cash transfers and quality of life, controlling various household characteristics. The study used the 2021 South African General Household Survey with a sample of 1,499 households selected through a stratified random sampling technique. Data were analyzed using the contingency table technique and a Generalized Linear Model. The results showed that cash transfer families had a greater quality of life than non-transfer households. The results of the GLM analysis revealed that public safety, health, infrastructure, access to remittances and population group were important predictors of quality of life among the households in the research. The results also showed that education, economic environment and gender had no significant effect on the households’ quality of life while age group had a minimal effect. The study concludes that cash transfers (both social grants and remittances) have an impact on households’ quality of life. The study’s findings suggest that policymakers should continue to implement cash transfer programs to improve the well-being of households and improve public safety, health, infrastructure, education and the economic environment in the province.

The study’s findings suggest that policymakers should continue to implement cash transfer programs to improve the well-being of households and improve public safety, health, infrastructure, education and the economic environment in the province.","PeriodicalId":282613,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Innovative Research and Scientific Studies","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127912875","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The effectiveness of European fiscal policies is of particular importance for the future economic performance of the community especially during times of crisis due to polarized public opinion and expert criticism. This study attempts to identify the redistributive and risk-sharing effects resulting from centralized financial transfers within the EU. We investigate a broader sample of EU (28) countries during 2000-2021 in addition to the Euro area countries used in most studies on the issue. Traditional regression methods and the Pooled Mean Group (PMG) model were used in order to maximize the objectivity of the analysis. The study’s results show that long-term redistribution is virtually absent with levels below 1%. In some cases, the values are even negative which is an interesting (but not unattested) finding in the context of such a sensitive issue as the permanent shift of wealth within the EA and EU. Budget transfers achieved a risk-sharing effect of 11% for the EU and 29% for the EA. Risk sharing levels are comparable and even better than those of some fully-fledged fiscal federations. This is an attestation to the capacity of the EU to successfully implement its intended policies despite some criticism.
