The purpose of this quantitative research was to identify whether there were correlations between U.S. automobile consumers’ perceived value and South Korean automobiles’ price, quality, fuel efficiency, design, and technologies. The sample size of the current study was 538. A questionnaire was used to collect data from automobile consumers in 50 states and in the District of Columbia. The results show that consumers’ perceived value were positively related to South Korean automobiles’ price, quality, fuel efficiency, design, and technologies. The result of a multiple regression analysis shows that South Korean automobiles’ quality, fuel efficiency, design, and technologies were significant predictors of consumers’ perceived value. On the other hand, price was only a marginally significant predictor of consumers’ perceived value. In the second multiple regression analysis which considers the participants’ gender, age, education level, and income level, results indicated that none of the four variables had any effect on consumers’ perceived value. Implications for South Korean automobiles’ pricing, quality control, and manufacturing strategy are discussed. Directions for future research are also proposed.

The objective of this research is to analyse the impact of asset management to the optimisation of the asset utilisation at Local Government of Bone Bolango. The variables utilised for this research are stocktaking, legal auditing, assessment and condition of the asset. The samples for this research are 104 people. Respondents were selected through purposive sampling. This is a quantitative research and the method used was multiple regression analysis. The research finding shows that partially, the stocktaking, assessment and condition of the asset have positive and significant impact to the optimisation of asset utilisation; while the legal auditing has no impact toward the optimisation of asset utilisation. The value of the coefficient of determination shows that the stocktaking, legal auditing, assessment and condition of the asset altogether contribute to the optimisation of asset utilisation which is 58,8% and the remaining of 41,2% is affected by the factors beyond this research.Keywords: The Optimization of Asset Utilisation, Stocktaking, Legal Auditing, Assessment, and Condition of the asset.Abstrak. Salah satu masalah utama dalam manajemen aset adalah ketidaktertiban dalam penggunaan dan pemanfaatannya. Ini menyebabkan pemerintah daerah kesulitan untuk mengetahui secara pasti aset yang dikuasai atau dikelolanya, sehingga aset-aset tersebut cenderung tidak optimal dalam penggunaan maupun pemanfaatannya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh manajemen aset terhadap optimalisasi pemanfaatan aset pada Pemerintah Daerah Kabupaten Bone Bolango. Variabel-variabel yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah inventarisasi, legal audit, penilaian dan kondisi aset. Dengan menggunakan purposive sampling, jumlah sampel penelitian yang diambil sebanyak 104 orang. Jenis penelitian ini adalah kuantitatif dengan menggunakan metode analisis regresi berganda. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa secara parsial inventarisasi, penilaian dan kondisi aset berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap optimalisasi pemanfaatan aset, sedangkan legal audit tidak berpengaruh terhadap optimalisasi pemanfaatan aset. Nilai dari koefesien determinasi menunjukkan bahwa inventarisasi, legal audit, penilain dan kondisi aset bersama-sama berkontribusi terhadap optimalisasi pemanfaatan aset yaitu sebesar 58,8 %, dan sisanya 41,2 % dipengaruhi oleh faktor lain diluar model penelitian.Kata kunci: Optimalisasi Pemanfaatan Aset, Inventarisasi, Legal Audit, Penilaian dan Kondisi Aset

The author predicts that the interaction between individual- and team-level autonomy influences team performance and that their combined effects are contingent on the level of task interdependence. Multiple regression analysis of data from 89 teams in a manufacturing setting confirm these expectations, demonstrating that team performance depends on the combination of individual and team autonomy. These findings suggest that the optimal combination of individual and team autonomy depends on the level of task interdependence in a team. Implications for future research, particularly in the areas of cross-level analyses and contingency theory, are discussed as well.

Research on leadership has suggested a possible relationship between style of leadership and being able to understand the viewpoints of others. The present investigation sought to determine the relationship between two measures of empathy and style of leadership. 127 undergraduate students, participating in small groups, were given Hobart and Fahlberg's predictive empathy measure, Barrett-Lennard's Relationship Inventory (perceived empathy), and Fiedler's Least Preferred Co-worker Scale (leadership style). A multiple regression analysis indicated that predictive empathy was a significant but moderate predictor of style while perceived empathy was not a significant predictor. The results were discussed in terms of future research and theory building.

Abstract: Research question: The purpose of this paper is to analyze the factors that influence consumers' intentions when buying foreign brands, and then the purchase itself. Motivation: The business environment is experiencing an extensive change and it has become very demanding for companies to retain customers as well as market share. Companies must learn to adapt to changes in order to survive in the market, and therefore need to be aware of the needs of their customers and their purchasing decisions. The rise in consumer awareness has led consumers to opt for well-known and high-quality foreign brands. Hence, if companies hope to outperform their competitors, they need to persuade consumers to purchase their products and brands. Idea: The main objective of the research is to be based on previous research in this field to find out whether perceived quality, prestige, perceived value and environmental impact affect the intention of domestic consumers to buy foreign brands, and consequently the purchase of these foreign brands. Data: The survey was conducted on the territory of the Republic of Serbia by means of a questionnaire and included 158 respondents. Data were collected from the respondents electronically during a period of about one month. Tools: Statistical analyses of all collected data (utilizing linear correlation, multiple regression analysis, T-test of sample independence and ANOVA) were used to draw conclusions about the relationships between the observed variables and to determine differences in the mean values between individual categories of respondents in terms of buying foreign brands. Findings: Multiple regression analysis confirmed the statistically significant influence of perceived quality and perceived value on the intention of consumers in Serbia to buy foreign brands. Other factors do not have a statistically significant effect on consumer intention. Also, a simple regression analysis revealed a statistically significant influence of consumer intention on the act of purchase. At the very end of the paper, it was determined that statistically significant differences regarding the purchase of foreign brands existed when respondents were observed by gender and education levels, while age did not have a statistical significance. Contribution: This research has a scientific and practical contribution in terms of collecting information about the factors that influence the consumers` intension to buy foreign brands.
