This study aims to investigate whether there are differences in preferences for different types of hand-drip and Italian-style coffees across genders and age groups. The findings indicate that gender plays a significant role in coffee preferences, suggesting that café operators should tailor their product promotion strategies based on whether their target demographic is predominantly male or female. Additionally, age-related differences in coffee preferences identified through one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) underscore the importance of age-specific marketing strategies.

The arguments regarding Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) typically revolve around two main perspectives. Thinkers of one perspective assert that Individuals or Organizations should engage in CSR primarily because it is their moral obligation to work for the wellbeing of fellow human beings and the environment because they have the resources to help the people and the government. Thinkers of opposing viewpoint argue that Individuals or Organizations may refrain from participating in CSR initiatives because the primary objective of any business entity is to make profit and pursuit of any other objective is considered to be a waste of resources at the cost of investors. Both these viewpoints appear to form a no-meeting-point web of opposing arguments possibly because the definition of CSR and the perception about CSR generate a lot many ambiguities. The definition of CSR informs about voluntary assumption of responsibilities that go beyond economic and legal responsibilities but the examples of CSR appear to be varied: one moment, it seems to mean the use of corporate resources to operate a program to address some social problem; the next, it is all about charitable donations, and sometime later, it seems to mean providing benefits to employees to improve their quality of life in the workplace. On the other hand, the perception of people about CSR appears to be two-fold: CSR is a moral endeavor and CSR is a business strategy. The people working in the business world and elsewhere perceive CSR as a moral endeavor to help the general lot of people and the environment, but that is also perceived to function simultaneously as a business strategy to promote the economic interests of the organization. We argue in the paper that there is a need to better understand the conflicting domains of definition of CSR and perception about CSR separately and in relation to each other because any ambiguity in the understanding of these two aspects of CSR potentially can pose dangers to the ethically correct practices of CSR in the business world and in the society.

Purpose Existing research suggests that the prevalence of obesity varies by income and educational level, but patterns of income across different countries and regions may differ. Therefore, this study investigates the obesity prevalence among adults in Taiwan based on economic income and educational attainment, and identifies gender differences. Methods A total of 3481 adult males and 3510 adult females participated in the National Nutrition and Health Survey (years 2017-2020), providing data including height, weight, body fat percentage, education level, and income. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyse adjusted body mass index (BMI) and body fat percentage based on income and education level, as well as the relationship between income, education, and overweight/obesity. Results In males, there was a significant interaction between income and weight standard (Trend, p <0.05) and obesity (Trend, p <0.05). Compared to the lowest income group, the adjusted odds ratios (ORs) (95% confidence intervals) for overweight and obesity were 1.45 (0.09, 2.12) and 1.25 (0.82 to 1.76) respectively, for the highest income group. However, in the fully adjusted model for females, the association between income and overweight/obesity was not significant, but there was an inverse trend between education level and obesity. Discussion Education level and income have a certain impact on the obesity prevalence among adults in Taiwan, with differences observed between genders in the prevalence of obesity.

The speech will start with the difficulty of management and interpretation of the regulatory and organisational complexity of a health context (in particular a hospital) and will try to trace a possible mode of interaction between stakeholders and institutions based on the project work developed, with Doctor Franco Milani, for the Executive master's in strategic management and leadership of health Organizations attended at the University of Pavia during a.a. 2021-2022. The management of the relationship between regulatory and organisational complexity in the healthcare context and the relationship with the patient/citizen is deemed to require i) the implementation of new leadership styles, ii) the dissemination of Non-Technical Skills, iii) the implementation, structured and specific, of participatory processes, so that public action is implemented in a tailor-made way for the need of the community for which it was thought iv) a new mode of communication between stakeholders and institutions so that the ethics of the relationship and communication, transparency and accountability become the pivot of a new mode of interaction.

Financial products are interconnected through the balance sheet and affect the overall economic system by connectedness. Investors are interested in the connectedness of markets, so our study investigated spillover dynamics and their influence on ESG and non-ESG-oriented banks in the USA. Our dataset comprises 2319 observations from January 1, 2015, to November 22, 2023. We employed the spillover index of Diebold and Yilmaz (2012) to conduct an extensive analysis of ESG-oriented and non-ESG-oriented banks in the USA. The study uncovered significant differences in interconnectedness and spillover effects between ESG-oriented and non-ESG-oriented banks, particularly during regular periods and the COVID-19 pandemic. ESG-oriented banks, in particular, exhibit higher levels of interconnectedness, with notable spillovers among themselves, indicating a need for cross-market diversification to manage risk. In contrast, non-ESG-oriented banks demonstrate lower interconnectedness and spillover effects. The study highlights the potential benefits of portfolio diversification across ESG and non-ESG banks. The research concludes that such diversification can offer significant risk reduction benefits. Findings suggested that banks must incorporate ESG and non-ESG investments in their portfolio to mitigate overall risk. Banks’ adoption of ESG standards may lead to investing in fewer projects, leading to ESG constraints in portfolio optimization. In this way, ESG investment restricts and constrains the diversification of portfolios, which increases risk and contagion.

This research discusses the impact of collaborations between fashion brands and animation studios amongst the customer. This phenomena has been intriguing for the researcher because recently in the last few years there have been countless collaborations between these brands. The brands have impacted the customers’ preferences and they purchase these collaboration items for many different reasons. The researcher started this research by mapping the background of these collaborations. After analyzing the background, the researcher started to find the topic or goal of this research which is finding the reasons behind why these collaborations are (most likely) to be successful. Following finding the focus on this research was a part of the beginning steps, the researcher started finding literature works related to my topic. Journals, academic articles, news articles and others that are related to fashion, brand collaboration, collaboration marketing, animation studios and so much more. These literatures helped me find the definition and information regarding aspects that are related to my research. After reading these literature works the researcher analyzed each of them and divided them into sections within my research. As the researcher has mentioned before, the researcher discussed the definition. Information, reasons, how it impacts other parts of the research or why they are related. After the literature review was finished the researcher continued to conduct a survey to receive first primary sourced data. The survey that was conducted consisted of questions related to the customers’ knowledge regarding anime, fashion brands, brand collaborations, their shopping preferences, their standard to shop a branded product and so much more. The survey received 151 respondents for my survey. From this survey the researcher received new information regarding my research and this definitely helped me in finding the reasons behind why customers or the market are interested in purchasing collaboration products between animation and fashion brands. The step after conducting the survey was analyzing the data that the researcher has collected. The researcher used descriptive and quantitative analysis from the graphs of the survey’s result. The researcher made a conclusion and analysis of each question’s answers. The answer with the highest amount in a question becomes the true answer or represents the majority of the population. After representing the survey’s data in the form of graphs and statistical analysis. The result of the survey and findings from the journal shows that there are various effects of brand collaborations towards the customers, whether they are from the animation series’ market or outside the market. There were also additional insights regarding people who are not interested in purchasing collaboration products, they gave their perspective about their reasonings on why they won’t be buying those items.

This paper analyzes the relationship between voluntary disclosure and managerial compensation in the French context. Our analysis is based on a sample of non-financial French firms listed on the SBF120. By using a score of voluntary disclosure, the results show a significant and positive relationship between managerial compensation and the score of voluntary disclosure. The findings of this study also indicate that there is a relationship between voluntary disclosure and firm’s characteristics. Our results provide a better understanding of voluntary disclosure practices and draw more attention of regulatory authorities to the importance of managerial compensation to improve transparency and voluntary disclosure.

This study aims to examine the effect of good corporate governance on firm value. In addition, this study also examines the role of environmental costs in moderating the effect of good corporate governance on firm value. This research was conducted on go public companies included in the LQ45 index list from 2018 to 2022, with purposive sampling. The data was analyzed using panel data with the weighted least square method. Measurement of good corporate governance uses a score based on the corporate governance perception index, while firm value is measured by the Tobins'Q ratio. Meanwhile, the moderating variable of environmental costs is measured based on Corporate Social Responsibility costs. The results showed that good corporate governance negatively affects firm value. This study did not succeed in proving the moderation of environmental costs on the relationship between good corporate governance and firm value. This research is expected to be the basis for investors in making investment decisions through information about the effect of environmental costs on the relationship between good corporate governance and firm value.

Sports technologies have been in continuous and uninterrupted 'change and development' from the day they first started to emerge until today. With each passing year, sports technologies are developing by taking reference from each other through new technologies. With the development of sports technologies, generations, encounter more 'new and advanced' technologies every day. Sports have an important place in protecting the physical and psychological health of individuals. In addition to physical health, mental health also has an important place in sports. In this respect, the aim of the current research is to examine different technology areas in sports in terms of mental health. For this purpose, as a data collection tool; DergiPark, Higher Education Institution National Thesis Center (YÖKTEZ) and Google Scholar were searched for Turkish sources and Web of Science and PubMed databases for English sources with the keywords "Sport Technology", "Sport Mental Health", "Sport Entertainment" and "Technology Addiction". As a result of the research; it is seen that technology in sports is used for different purposes such as 'entertainment, exercise and performance sports'. In some cases, the use of technology in more equipment or time than needed can create technology addiction in individuals and negatively affect their mental health. On the other hand, it is thought that conscious technology users can transform their existing sports/exercises into an efficient and fun way with sports technologies developed for different purposes. In this respect, it was concluded that, as with all new developing technologies, it is important to determine the needs well when using these technologies and to be a conscious user of sports technologies in terms of mental health.

In recent years, there has been an intense interest in generational studies in many different disciplines of social sciences. Especially the political participation behaviours and voter tendencies of individuals called Generation Z attract the attention of political decision makers as well as academicians. In Türkiye, on the other hand, it is noteworthy that the studies establishing a relationship between the voter tendencies of generations and their political participation preferences and levels are limited and the studies are generally conducted at the regional or educational level on the basis of province, region or school. Based on the assumption that there is a need for a descriptive and explanatory study on the general political participation tendencies of Generation Z in Turkey, this study was designed. In the research, a scale was created to analyse the political participation tendencies of Generation Z youth in Türkiye. Citizens living in Türkiye were considered as the population and the sample to represent the population was determined. Since the variable in question will be measured at the community level, the sample should be distributed at the NUTS II level. Considering the voter turnout rates for a representative sample, the minimum sample size was determined as 417 with a sensitivity of +/- 3 at 95% confidence interval. Considering the possible missing observations, the scale was applied to a total of 500 people. 26 provinces and 31 districts in Level 2 of the "Classification of Statistical Regional Units of Türkiye" were determined as the sample. The data obtained were analysed by using SPSS (Statistical Packages for the Social Sciences) and the general voter tendencies of Generation Z were analysed by reliability analysis, frequency analysis, chi-square analysis and difference tests. In the analyses, it was primarily concluded that 85.8% of the participants were not members of any political party and 67.4% of them did not believe in solving problems through politics. It has been determined that 41.6% of the participants consider themselves as sympathising voters and 34.2% of them consider the party leader important in voting for a political party. In addition, 66.2 per cent of the respondents stated that Turkey needs a new political party and 60.6 per cent stated that Türkiye should return to the parliamentary system.
近年来,社会科学的许多不同学科都对世代研究产生了浓厚的兴趣。尤其是被称为 Z 世代的个人的政治参与行为和选民倾向吸引了政治决策者和学术界的关注。另一方面,值得注意的是,在土耳其,确定各代人的选民倾向与其政治参与偏好和水平之间关系的研究十分有限,而且这些研究通常是在地区或教育层面上以省份、地区或学校为基础进行的。基于需要对土耳其 Z 世代的一般政治参与倾向进行描述性和解释性研究这一假设,本研究应运而生。在研究中,设计了一个量表来分析土耳其 Z 世代青年的政治参与倾向。居住在土耳其的公民被视为人口,并确定了代表人口的样本。由于相关变量将在社区层面进行测量,因此样本应分布在 NUTS II 层面。考虑到代表性样本的投票率,确定最小样本量为 417 个,在 95% 的置信区间内灵敏度为 +/- 3。考虑到可能存在缺失观测值,该量表适用于总共 500 人。26 个省和 "土耳其统计地区单位分类 "二级中的 31 个县被确定为样本。所得数据使用 SPSS(社会科学统计软件包)进行分析,并通过可靠性分析、频率分析、卡方分析和差异检验分析了 Z 世代的总体选民倾向。分析得出的主要结论是:85.8%的参与者不是任何政党的成员,67.4%的参与者不相信通过政治解决问题。41.6% 的参与者认为自己是同情型选民,34.2% 的参与者认为党的领导人对政党投票很重要。此外,66.2%的受访者表示土耳其需要一个新的政党,60.6%的受访者表示土耳其应恢复议会制。
