Satisfaction of Students on their Respective Organization at Asian Institute of Maritime Studies

The study endeavored to elucidate the performance as well as the satisfaction of students toward their respective student organization in AIMS. Descriptive-correlation was used to determine the significant difference in the performance and satisfaction of the student organizations while documentary analysis was used to assess the performances of the same organizations. Employing stratified random sampling as sampling technique, and using Slovin’s formula to derive the samples, respondents were 244 randomly selected students from course-based organizations at the College of Business (CB) and Maritime College (MC) in AIMS, Pasay City. A validated, self-made survey questionnaire was utilized as data gathering instrument. Data were outsourced at the Center for Student Services (CeSS). To analyze the data, percentage, weighted mean, and analysis of variance were employed as statistical tool for the study. Based on the findings, Nautica Society and Marine Engineering Society (MES) had the largest student organization populations while members who are moderately active also comprise the largest number in terms of population. Performance wise, the AIMS Cyber Mode Society (ACYMOS), Culinarians Hospitality and Entrepreneur Fellow Society (CHEFS), and Junior Executive Society (JES) were student organizations that have almost complied with the required number of activities to be held. In terms of satisfaction, the members of Nautica and MES were only satisfied (WM = 2.7 and 2.6 respectively) with their seminars, community services, other activities, officers elected, and advisers appointed except for MES’ community service with fairly satisfied result mainly because there were no activities held by these student organizations for the previous academic year. PSCAS and NARCHIMES members were also satisfied because of the same reason above. A high satisfaction level was also given to the officers and advisers of other organizations namely CHEFS, JES and ACYMOS because of their active leadership on their respective organizations. Except for the community services rendered, there is no significant difference between the members of the different organization and their level of satisfaction in terms of seminars held, other activities held, officers elected, and advisers appointed. No significant difference was also noted in the performance of the organization and their activities.

Are Audit Committees Overloaded? Evidence from the Effect of Financial Risk Management Oversight on Financial Reporting Quality

Audit committee (AC) responsibilities have increased over time, prompting concerns that overloading the AC with too many duties may impair the AC’s ability to oversee financial reporting. Using new AC charter-based proxies to measure AC responsibilities, we find that an emphasis on the AC overseeing financial risk management (which is a noncore AC duty) is associated with worse financial reporting quality, as proxied by restatements—consistent with the argument of AC overload by distraction. This overload effect is attenuated when an AC has more directors to share duties or when the AC retains an expert auditor who can serve as a substitute for AC oversight. This overload effect is accentuated when AC members are busy with multiple board appointments or when the external auditor is busy with other audits. We also find that AC financial risk oversight is associated with more AC meetings and greater turnover of AC directors, consistent with the notion of overload. In sharp contrast, we find that greater AC oversight over internal controls (which is a core AC duty) is associated with improved financial reporting quality. Overall, we document that the nature of AC duties impacts the AC’s ability to promote financial reporting quality and that noncore duties may overload ACs.

Cognitive Economy and Product Categorization

In mediated markets, the categorization of products by mediators is critical to efficient interaction between producers and consumers. As organizational research tends to focus on the consequences of categorization rather than its antecedents, however, we know relatively little about why mediators assign one category label or another to a product. In this study, we argue that two informational properties of labels, specificity and distinctiveness, determine the outcomes of mediators’ categorization decisions. Our analysis of product categorization decisions made by members of an online music community, 2000–2020, supports this argument. We find that a label’s odds of being assigned to a product increase (a) if this label encodes information that is neither too similar nor too different from that which is encoded by a superordinate label, that is, it has moderate specificity; and (b) if it encodes information that differs as much as possible from that which is encoded by horizontally related labels, that is, it has maximal distinctiveness. These findings persist after controlling for other possible determinants of mediators’ categorization decisions, including producers’ claims to labels, products’ typicality, and mediators’ expertise.

Level of Compliance with the University Policies on Appearance and Discipline among College Students of the University of Cebu-Main Campus

School discipline is vital to helping students achieve solid academic gains. Effective school discipline practices help students make wise decisions and focus on their studies. School discipline refers to rules and strategies to manage student behavior and practices to encourage self-discipline. Along with education, students must adequately learn discipline in school because, with discipline and good values, the holistic development of the students will be protected. This study determined the students’ level of compliance with the University policies on students' appearance and discipline to provide an empirical basis for improving the discipline management system currently used by the University. The study utilized the descriptive-survey method of research using a researcher-made survey questionnaire based on the students' manual. The research study was participated by 1,390 respondents who were randomly selected first-year to fourth-year college students from the College of Teacher Education, College of Social Work, College of Arts and Sciences, College of Engineering, College of Criminal Justice, College of Customs Administration, College of Business and Accountancy, College of Information Technology and Computer Studies and College of Hospitality Management. Furthermore, based on the study's findings, most students fully comply with the university policies on students' appearance and discipline. Furthermore, there is no significant difference in age, gender, or the college they are enrolled in about students' compliance with school policies.

Innovative Models of Cooperation between Business Administration Majors in Universities and Enterprises


 
 
 
 University business administration programs strive to provide students with the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in industry. However, traditional cooperation models between universities and enterprises often fail to offer cutting-edge practical engagement. Through semi-structured interviews with Shandong Province 32 university department heads and business managers along with surveys from 217 students and employees, this mixed methods study aimed to uncover potentially innovative models of collaboration that effectively equip graduates for the modern workplace.
 The key findings reveal 4 collaborative archetypes deemed innovative by over three-fourths of experts, including intensive capstones with partner companies, corporate co-creation of competency frameworks integrated into curricula, rotational cross-appointments of university and company talent, and consortium advisory boards that reciprocally inform program development. Enabling success factors include aligned values, communication structures that mitigate bureaucracy, networks for talent pipeline development, and flexibility in partnership formalization. Challenges center on initial partnership development, ensuring continuity, and measuring outcomes over time horizons longer than typical academic or business quarters. By identifying best practices within these innovative collaboration models, the study provides insight into improving partnerships’ equipping of next generation corporate and entrepreneurial business leaders.
 
 
 

New Athletes Involvement on Team Sports： towards Mitigating Anxiety and Depression

This study explores the potential of new athletes' involvement in team sports as a proactive intervention to mitigate anxiety and depression among 1st and 2nd-year students at Shandong College of Economics and Business. College life, marked by academic challenges and social adjustments, has witnessed a rising prevalence of mental health issues globally. Recognizing the impact of anxiety and depression on academic performance and overall well-being, this research aims to contribute evidence-based insights into the role of physical activity in fostering mental health among college students. Building on the multifaceted benefits of Physical Education (PE) and sports, this study employs a quantitative research design with 280 participants. Descriptive statistics reveal moderate anxiety (M = 15.2, SD = 4.5) and depression (M = 12.8, SD = 3.8) levels. Significantly, actively engaged participants in team sports exhibit lower anxiety and depression than their less-involved peers. Correlation and regression analyses underscore the negative association between hours of team sports participation per week and anxiety/depression levels, emphasizing the potential protective role of sustained engagement .The study contributes to a paradigm shift, advocating for the integration of structured physical activity, particularly through team sports, as a cornerstone in the promotion of mental health among college students. The gender-specific impact highlights the need for tailored interventions, encouraging colleges and universities to prioritize and promote organized team sports programs for holistic student well-being.

Dorm-preneurship as Entrepreneurial Living and Learning: An Educational Design Ethnography

Entrepreneurship residence halls/dorms have been appearing on more and more campuses, especially in the United States and Canada. However, there is a very thin knowledge base on which to construct and design these expensive campus facilities/programs. Sometimes called “dormcubators,” these facilities/programs are linked to both the university business incubation (UBI) and living-learning communities (LLC) movements. As a result, the design and delivery of these hybrid spaces/programs can be oriented toward achieving economic (i.e., starting companies), social (i.e., building communities), and/or educational (i.e., entrepreneurial learning) outcomes. Prior research on other kinds of post-secondary LLCs suggests that the intended outcomes are also likely accompanied by unintended negative consequences for students and faculty. To understand how various dorm-preneurship program designs have worked in practice, this paper applies an ‘educational design ethnography’ approach to four different residential entrepreneurship programs at the University of Waterloo, Canada. The key finding is that problems arise when dorm-preneurship programs lack any link to educational/curricular outcomes and focus only on economic objectives or social ones. Four design principles are developed to guide research and development of similar programs in other contexts.

Exploring the Integration of ICT in Promoting Inclusive Education: A Case Study of the College of Business and Economics at the University of Rwanda

This research aimed to investigate the role of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in fostering inclusive education within the College of Business and Economics at the University of Rwanda, focusing on the experiences, challenges, and outcomes associated with ICT integration. The study involved 210 undergraduate students in the faculty of business administration, with a targeted sample of 84 students selected through stratified random sampling. Employing a mixed methods design, qualitative data were gathered through in-depth interviews, employing thematic analysis to identify patterns and perspectives. Additionally, structured questionnaires were used for quantitative data collection, focusing on the extent of ICT integration, its influence on inclusive education, and perceived barriers. The findings revealed predominantly positive outcomes, including improved accessibility, enhanced student engagement, and the importance of teacher training. However, challenges such as addressing diverse learning styles, digital literacy, and ongoing adaptation were acknowledged. Recommendations included addressing digital literacy skills, infrastructure gaps, and monitoring to ensure equitable access and positive outcomes for all students, emphasizing the transformative influence of ICT on learning experiences while acknowledging the need for continuous efforts to overcome challenges and maximize inclusivity.

Manifesting the academic psychological contract

The level of research undertaken on the academic psychological contract, and its influence on academic’s behaviour is limited. This paper seeks to consider the academic psychological contract, by reviewing its manifestation within the role of and the influence on their undertaking of the role. Particularly important is academics’ interpretation of the role and what they consider important. Within this, the paper considers in-role and extra-role activities and what may be the grey areas in which time is spent. The research adopts the combined usage of phenomenology with interpretivist processes to investigate the insights of eighteen academics at nine UK University Business Schools. Semi-structured interviews were used to collect to consider the constructs’ manifestation. Key aspects of behaviour were identified as discretionary effort and autonomy and managerialism with links to academic citizenship.

Co-designing an Institutional Repository in Kosovo

An institutional repository (IR) launched at the University for Business and Technology in Pristina, Kosovo in 2019. Students from 2018 and 2019 enrolled in an Information Systems course at the University provided ideas and feedback on the repository development. Their suggestions are captured here by focus group sessions held in mid-2019 in Kosovo and subsequently shared with University Administration and the IR platform company. This case study from the field advocates for continuous feedback from stakeholder groups and an expansion of the underlying data collection methods at other institutions.

Думи на водещите броя

Issue 58, January 2024 is thematically situated in the areas of rhetoric, argumentation and philosophy. There are eight scholarly articles, divided into two sections: Rhetoric and Argumentation and Philosophy, Communication and Society. The two authors (Ulrike Nespital and Christian Heiliger) of the article “Efficacy Study for Co-Teaching in Practices in Rhetoric and Natural Sciences” are from Justus Liebig University Giessen, Germany. They present the results of a study on rhetoric and more specifically on the formation of presentation skills in students studying technical subjects and science. Hilda Narch is from the Modern University for Business and Science, Lebanon and in her article “Crisis Management Communications System” she presents a theoretical overview of basic concepts related to crisis communication management. This continues a steady tradition of the journal publishing articles by authors from universities in other countries; these are scholars who are established in a particular academic field and who share their expertise as teachers and researchers. Six authors are from Bulgarian educational institutions and research units: Sofia University “St. Kliment Ohridski”, University of National and World Economy, NATFA “Krastio Sarafov”, the American University in Bulgaria – Academic Library, etc. Argumentation as part of the rhetorical heritage is presented in the context of judicial rhetoric; the author Metin Ibriyamov focuses on abductive reasoning and abductive schemes in criminal proceedings; he provides a theoretical overview, presents examples and reaches reasonable conclusions on their use. Two of the articles include the results of an analysis of political rhetoric, in particular presidential and presidential candidate rhetoric, exhibited during debates. Maglena Gurkova provides a rhetorical analysis of the pre-election debate between Emmanuel Macron and Marine Le Pen held on 3 May 2017; she examines the history, organisation, media context, participants' behaviour, argumentation and non-linguistic means. Maryana Mihaylova analyses presidential candidate debates in Bulgaria in 2016, in particular a televised debate between Rumen Radev and Tsetska Tsacheva, and focuses on the non-verbal communication of presidential contenders in the country. The verbal part of both articles is illustrated with visual elements from the debates, which contributes to a quick and accurate decoding of the presented conclusions. Nora Goleshevska is the author of the scientific publication “Giorgio Agamben’s The language of philosophy and the language of poetry: The world in crisis”. The text is an interesting syncretic version, namely a translational commentary, which is an in-depth analysis and translation of Agamben's text entitled “Quando la casa brucia” (“When the house burns”). In this way, the reader has the opportunity to validate the scholarly analysis with the original text of Giorgio Agamben, one of Italy's most renowned contemporary philosophers, translated into Bulgarian. Stoyanka Delibeeva studies scientific publications and normative documents that refer to a topical issue and studies the influence of language learning and multilingual practices on positive identifications with the European Union at the secondary school stage in Bulgaria. The novelty of the article is to establish the affordances of Q-methodology for the implementation of research in this area. Radina Damyanova presents the results of a content analysis of social networks used by academic libraries in Bulgaria and summarizes the results in tables and charts, presenting an up-to-date picture and recommendations for improving the work of these institutions in understanding the opportunities of reaching different audiences in a fast, effective and contemporary way. The issue is interesting and useful in that it brings together both theoretical overviews and methodological statements; both interpretations from a scientific perspective and results from analyses implemented with contemporary methods.

EMPLOYABILITY, PROACTIVENESS AND WORKPLACE BEHAVIORS: IS SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS A MEDIATOR?

The paper aims to examine individuals’ behavior at work and/or in college, by placing the focus on employability, proactiveness and socioeconomic status as predictors. The paper’s objectives are threefold: (1) to examine if there is a causal relationship between employability and proactive personality of individuals and their citizenship or deviant behavior at work and/or in college; (2) to understand the extent to which socioeconomic status influences individuals’ citizenship or deviant behavior at work and/or in college; and (3) to determine the mediation role of socioeconomic status in the causal relationship between employability and proactiveness and individuals’ behaviors. Linear regression models were employed to test the predictive power of the variables once a causal relationship had been confirmed. Mediation tests were used to quantify the extent to which a variable participated in known causal relationships. The research reports results based on data collected from 534 university business students in Romania. The results confirm that employability and proactiveness predict workplace behavior, and that socioeconomic status mediates this relationship.

Business faculty publications, a local citation analysis: 2019 – 2020

To determine whether the Angelo Bruno Business Library was meeting the needs of business faculty in the College of Business (COB) at The University of Alabama, and to measure the frequency of publishing via Open Access (OA) journals, a comprehensive citation analysis of business faculty (tenured/tenure-track/non-tenure track/clinical/instructor/etc.) publications was conducted for the years 2019 - 2020. There are other reasons, as well, for considering the exercise of a citation analysis. The following data were collected from Scopus: all citations from works listed by each faculty member per the COB Faculty and Staff Directory (each department in the COB was included), title of reference, authors, year of publication, source title, volume/issue, and publication type. The results were analyzed collectively as well as for each department. This study also determined how often OA journal titles were chosen as the outlet for publication. Only 24% of published works by COB authors during this time frame are OA. This research also revealed the dismal results that none of the 100 most-cited journals were OA. It is to libraries’ financial advantage that more authors use OA publishing for their works as well as their places for cited research.
