The purpose of this study is to explore excessive selfie uploading behavior on social media sites among young women and its negative effects on women concepts related to their self and body image. Researches reveals that excessive selfie posting behavior among young women enhances self-objectification behavior. They spend a lot of their time and energy in taking and posting selfies, in editing their selfies just because of the factor to look beautiful and to get more likes and comments under their posts, and to meet the thin ideal beauty standards of social media, they are continually trying to present their self’s in manners that are perfect in every expect. On the other side these activities are disturbing their academic performances and their mental health as well. These activities also affect their interpersonal relationships with their families. A purposive sample of 450 women was taken from different areas of Sialkot, Pakistan from which 200 were screen out who fall on borderline according to the scoring criteria of selfitis behavior scale. A self- developed demographic sheet was administered along with Selfitis behavior scale (Balakrishnan & Griffiths, 2017), Objectified Body Consciousness Scale (McKinley & Hyde, 1996) and Body shape questionnaire (Evans & Dolan, 1993) was used. For data analysis, Inferential statistics, Pearson product moment correlational was used to assess the relationship and Multiple regression and T-test was used to compare different variables through SPSS (V-22). Results showed significant positive relationship of overall SBS score with self-objectification and body image dissatisfaction (p<.000, p<.000). moreover, the results of Pearson product moment correlational also shows significant correlation with overall SBS scores with self-objectification and body image dissatisfaction (r<.423**, r<.616**). Findings of this study provide awareness about how social networking sites are promoting selfie posting behavior among women of Sialkot, Pakistan.

This research aims to examine the impact of training, mood, and motivation on employee performance in academia of Sindh province, Pakistan. Training plays a vital role in enhancing the skills, abilities, and confidence of employees to achieve their personal and organizational goals effectively. Moreover, the mood and motivation of employees are also considered necessary features for the performance of employees. Therefore, an employee performance survey was conducted by adopting a close-ended questionnaire based on a 5-points and 7-points Likert scale to identify the relationship and impact on the performance of faculty. The method of sampling was convenience sampling, which enabled us to reach 265 participants from four cities of Sindh, including Karachi, Sukker, Hyderabad, and Mirpurkhas. SPSS was used to analyze the data, which highlights that training and motivation have a strong positive relationship to the dependent variable i: e employee performance; mood and employee performance have a moderately positive relationship. Every competitive organization in today's world needs a skilled workforce to achieve its short- and long-term organizational goals, so it is the organization's responsibility.

The penetration of technology has helped in better online learning and training around the world by minimizing the time and space issues coupled with traditional education and training. Regardless of the several benefits, keeping students on online platforms is an arduous task. Taking the case study of the Virtual University of Pakistan, this paper explores the impact of personal and environmental factors on online Leaner’s intention to continue through satisfaction. Primary data was gathered from 361 students of 3 regional campuses through a self-administrated closed-ended questionnaire. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to analyze the data in SmartPLS software. The study results indicate that only the provision of satisfying personal and environmental factors by distance learning higher education institutions can help them in attracting and retaining students. The post-COVID-19 situation has made the student intake and retention task even harder as the traditional education institution has also built the capabilities to provide online education and diminishing the niche market of virtual education institutions.

The sudden outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic led to a global recession, but China's OFDI remained on a steady rise, attracting global attention. By the end of 2020, Singapore was the second most developed country after the US in terms of receiving outward foreign direct investment (OFDI) flows from China. The investment cooperation between China and Singapore played an important role in promoting the high-quality development of the Belt and Road Initiative and enhancing the economic cooperation between China and ASEAN after the COVID-19 pandemic. This study delves into the influencing factors of Chinese OFDI to Singapore: home country institutions, host country institutions, and investment motives. This study takes Singapore as the research object and uses the data of China’s OFDI to Singapore from 2001 to 2020 to conduct an empirical analysis through a modified regression model to analyze the development of China’s OFDI to Singapore, so as to make contributions to: (1) providing empirical evidence for studying OFDI from developing to developed countries; (2) providing reference for investment cooperation in the post COVID period between China and Singapore.

This research investigates the association between transformational leadership and Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB). Moreover, organizational justice is analyzed as a mediating variable between transformational leadership behavior and OCB. This research was conducted in the restaurants of Pakistan, on a sample of 219 employees. The current study used correlation and regression analyses in order to test the hypothesized model. Findings of this research show that transformational leadership behavior and employees’ perception of organizational justice are significantly and positively related to employees’ OCB. In addition, the results also show that organizational justice perception mediates the relationship between transformational leadership and OCB. Thus, current research shows that the top management of the restaurants in Pakistan should focus on establishing transformational leadership behavior and also focus on the selection of individuals having transformational leadership qualities which have the ability to positively influence organizational justice perception thereby fostering OCB of employees. Lastly, this study provides its limitations and suggestions for further research.

While the concept of entrepreneurial ecosystems has famously been capturing the holistic view of entrepreneurial development, the question of how entrepreneurial ecosystems can specifically foster inclusiveness and advance toward sustainable development goals (SDGs) set by the United Nations is still an underexplored area of research. Despite the fact that scholars have shown a growing interest in defining and measuring entrepreneurial ecosystems, this is still a neglected area of research in the context of marginalized communities. Previously the effectiveness of entrepreneurial ecosystems has largely been focused on aligning skills with opportunities, providing equal accessibility to available geographical resources, and supporting social networks with favourable policies. However, few studies explain social, economic and geographical issues faced by marginalized communities within the debate of entrepreneurial ecosystem. By critically analyzing the literature on entrepreneurial ecosystems, this paper conceptualizes the new construct of inclusive entrepreneurial ecosystems and their related dimensions. At the interface research, scholars will create unique positioning by using theoretical advancement. Moreover, policy-makers could align their strategic goals with the purposed inclusive dimensions that transform the socio-economic conditions of marginalized communities.

The study aims to investigate the effect of gender bender organizational barriers on women career progression in Commercial Banks in Pakistan. The Perceived barriers were gender stereotype, socio-cultural beliefs, organizational structure, family responsibilities and individual characteristics. To serve that purpose, specifically branches of all public and private banks in twin cities i-e Islamabad and Rawalpindi, were selected. Survey research strategy was adopted to collect data from 252 branches of selected sample. Convenience sampling and random sampling techniques were used to select sample of branches. Self-administered questionnaires were distributed among the three clusters which are top managers, middle managers and sub-ordinate. Collected data was tested on IBM SPSS by using multiple linear regression, descriptive statistics reliability and correlation analysis. The findings indicate that gender-specific organizational systems negatively affect women career progression in banks of Islamabad and Rawalpindi. The theoretical support was provided by gender and feminist theories and Gendered Organizational Structure (GOS) Model” and its three sub-models.

This study integrated the person-job-fit theory to look into the association between polychronicity and employees’ performance mediated through employees’ engagement in education sector. By applying, random sampling, this study collected primary data from the teachers of Government colleges (N=187), through survey questionnaire. The results indicated the main effect of polychronicity and indirect effect through employee’s engagement on employees’ performance (in-role behaviour). Findings suggested a positive and significant relationship of Polychronicity with employees’ performance. The mediating role of employee’s engagement in the association between polychronicity and employees’ performance (in-role-behaviour) was also strongly supported by the results. Overall, this study contributed by established employees’ engagement as the missing link in the relationship between polychronicity and employees’ performance (in-role behaviour).
