Cross-national analysis of aggregate data has found a relationship between the military participation ratio and national economic growth rates and distributional inequality. This article examines one aspect of this macro-micro linkage by investigating the relationship between acculturation in the military and the attitudes and behavior of the most strategic sector of the Peruvian labor force. Military service retards the development of social consciousness among the working class, reduces their protest participation, and eases their integration into the hierarchy and discipline of the industrial work place. These findings suggest that military socialization may indeed affect growth rate by reducing worker-management and worker-state conflict. On the other hand, it would seem equally likely that the conservative effect of military acculturation contributes to increased inequality of income.

In 2020, nearly 300,000 health workers who were infected and died due to Covid-19 around the world including Asia. Several countries in Asia are among the top 10 of the highest healthcare workers deaths in the world. When the rate of infection and hospitalization increases, health workers must be prioritized so that they are not drained by the Covid-19 infection. Health workers are at a high risk level for exposure to the Covid-19 while they hold an important roles of handling the Covid-19 case. This systematic review aims to analyze the risk factors of health workers in hospitals among Asian Countries regarding Covid-19. We searched, from Science Direct, Springerlink and Pubmed identify relevant studies from 2020 on the topic of risk factors of transmission Covid-19 among healthcare workers in hospital of Asian Countries. From these searches, a total of 135 papers were identified of which 22 studies met criteria. The main results were about risk factors for health workers in hospitals during Covid-19 such as personal protective equipment (PPE) availability, exposure to infected patients, excessive workload, IPC training, pre-existing medical conditions and psychological factors. The level of knowledge of health workers about Covid-19 is classified as good, but factors such as job categories, work experience affect their attitudes and behavior so that the factors of anxiety, fatigue and stress are quite varied. It takes considerable efforts and strategies especially from the work place so that the risk factors from health workers can be overcome.

This research applies the binding communication model to the sustainable communication strategies implemented in most hotels. The binding communication model links a persuasive message with the implementation of a low-cost commitment to strengthen the link between the attitudes and behavior of those receiving the message. We compared the effectiveness of a classical communication strategy (n = 86) with that of a binding communication strategy (n = 101) to encourage guests to choose sustainable behavior. Our results show that using the binding communication strategy generates significantly more sustainable behavior in guests than using the classical communication strategy. We discuss our results and suggest future avenues of research.

Abstract. The core aim of the present study is to compare the effects of a safety campaign and a behavior modification program on traffic safety. As is the case in community-based health promotion, the present study's approach of the attitude campaign was based on active participation of the group of recipients. One of the reasons why many attitude campaigns conducted previously have failed may be that they have been society-based public health programs. Both the interventions were carried out simultaneously among students aged 18-19 years in two Norwegian high schools (n = 342). At the first high school the intervention was behavior modification, at the second school a community-based attitude campaign was carried out. Baseline and posttest data on attitudes toward traffic safety and self-reported risk behavior were collected. The results showed that there was a significant total effect of the interventions although the effect depended on the type of intervention. There were significant differences in attitude and behavior only in the sample where the attitude campaign was carried out and no significant changes were found in the group of recipients of behavior modification.

Abstract. Most employees participate in workplace meetings, and their experiences in meetings can vary greatly, which can lead to positive or negative effects on both job attitudes and behavior. In this study, we examined the effect that a meeting attendee’s competence in the meeting topic had on their participation in the meeting and their perception of meeting effectiveness. Results indicated those with higher levels of competence in the meeting topic were more likely to participate and through participation found their meeting more effective; this relationship was stronger when employee dissent in the meetings was high. Leaders should ensure that those who are present in a meeting are competent in the topic of the meeting and encourage them to participate.
