An inevitability that natural disasters such as earthquakes will be perceived differently by different individuals within a community, some may perceive earthquakes as a natural occurrence plain and others perceive in transcendental meaning (the relationship of creatures and their Lord), namely the relationship causality between human behavior on the one hand as the cause and the punishment of God through the natural disaster on the other side as a result. This study aims to (1) determine how the perception of Gili Trawangan people to the cause of earthquake that has ever happened, (2) to determine the factors that affect the perception of Gili Trawangan people to the cause of earthquake. This research is down with qualitative paradigm, and case study research as design. Then, the technique of purposive samping and snow ball sampling are used to determine some key informans and support informans.  As for in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation are some of the data collection techniques. The research showed that the majority of Gili Trawangan people (71%) perceive that all behaviour and activity of Gili Trawangan community, then the type of tourism business that correlate to party activity, promiscuity, alcohol, as the cause of the earthquake. As for the small percentage (16%) of Gili Trawangan people who are the owner of tourism business perceiving that the earthquake is a natural phenomenon that occurs naturally due to the cyclical annual. As for those who perceive ambiguously are their backgrounds as tourism workers, such as waiters, porters, coachman of horse cart, and others, the amount are 14%. Perception ambiguous question in this research is at one time informants perceive that the cause of the earthquake transcendentally based on religious beliefs but at the same time agree well with the perception that the earthquake is a natural annual cycle.

Purpose This study aims to investigate the applicability of Ritter’s (2000) framework of interconnectedness in a triadic relationship between a provider, intermediaries and customers and to extend the framework by considering how the state of the relationships in a triad influences the relationship dynamic. Design/methodology/approach A qualitative case study research method with multiple sources of evidence was adopted in this study. The case study focusses on a triadic relationship of one of the largest UK-based financial services institutions, Provider XYZ, with independent financial advisers and customers. Findings The findings confirm that the synergy effect, lack effect, competition effect and by-pass effect exist in the triadic relationship. The findings also acknowledge that the state of the relationships in a triad, whether they are positive (+), negative (−) or neutral (0), combined with the identified interconnectedness effect determine the dynamic of the triadic relationship network. Originality/value This paper extends the existing framework of interconnectedness by considering how the change of the relationship state changes the relationship dynamic in a triad. By evaluating both the effect of interconnectedness and the state of the relationships in a triad, managers can identify and manage possible conflicts in a triad and enhance the effectiveness of the triadic relationship.

The retail market in Vietnam continues to grow with the entry of foreign retail brands and the strong rise of domestic businesses in expanding distribution networks and conquering consumer confidence. The appearance of more retail brands has created a fiercely competitive market. Based on the outcomes of previous research results on brand choice intention combined with a customer survey, the paper proposes an analytical framework and scales to examine the relationship of five elements including store image, price perception, risk perception, brand attitudes, brand awareness and retail brand choice intention with a case study of the Hanoi-based Circle K convenience store chain. These five elements are the precondition for retail businesses to develop their brands so as to attract customers.

Several studies have shown that the success of interregional cooperation may be influenced by coordination, commitment, participation, variance of cooperation, structure, format of cooperation, and political will. Nevertheless, these factors do not stand alone since actor relations as a determining aspect is capable of driving those factors effectively. This article aims to examine the aspect of actor relations as a contributing factor that determines successful cooperation among regions. This is a qualitative research with the policy of inter-regional cooperation of the Banjarbakula Program, South Kalimantan Province from February 2017 to February 2018, set as its object of study. The result of this study states that the success of inter-regional cooperation is influenced by the relationship of actors in development factors as suggested by previous experts. The actors involved in the inter-regional cooperation examined in this case had become triggers of coordination, commitment, and participation toward success and failure, as well as the effectiveness of regional cooperation policy. Structural obstacles, ego-centric character, minimum budget availability, and non-visionary planning could be overcome as long as actor relations were properly managed.

Background: Identifying and tracking COVID-19 related data has been crucial to the pandemic response. Most hospital systems have created internal tracking databases specific to COVID-19 but separated from other disease specific data pools. Traditional methods for tracking and trending novel and specific data such as COVID-19 related strokes may require personnel with highly technical skills to abstract the data. We aimed to create a COVID-19 stroke dashboard which would easily auto-abstract and update data. Methods: A simple monitoring system was designed using PowerBI™ and Microsoft Suite™ products that model existing data sources without using other IT resources. Existing data queries from various sources were modeled into one report and the resulting data model was used to track and trend incidence of COVID-19 and its relationship to stroke care throughout a 14- hospital stroke system. Results: The report allowed region-wide identification and evaluation of several metrics, including: volume of code strokes, the volume of patients who had a stroke within two weeks before or after testing positive for COVID-19, the initial NIHSS, if alteplase was administered, reason for no alteplase administration, delay in alteplase administration and if related to COVID-19 and the relationship of COVID-19 cases to the volume of code strokes. It was found that the volume of code strokes significantly decreased during the time of the pandemic and was inversely related to the volume of COVID-19 positive cases being reported in a county. The tool also found that COVID-19 positive stroke patients increased as the overall COVID-19 hospital volume increased. Conclusion: Assessing the relationships between a novel disease and other disease states may lead to changes in hospital workflows and practices resulting into improved patient outcomes.

Few qualitative studies have explored the relationship between substance use and self-harm. We employed a multiple-case study research design to analyze data from 80 patients who were admitted to a hospital in South Africa following self-harm. Our analysis revealed, from the perspective of patients, a number of distinct ways in which substance use is implicated in self-harm. Some patients reported that substance intoxication resulted in poor decision making and impulsivity, which led to self-harm. Others said substance use facilitated their self-harm. Some participants detailed how in the past their chronic substance use had served an adaptive function helping them to cope with distress, but more recently, this coping mechanism had failed which precipitated their self-harm. Some participants reported that substance use by someone else triggered their self-harm. Findings suggest that there are multiple pathways and a host of variables which mediate the relationship between substance use and self-harm.

Managers play an important role in organizations. They are the persons who formulate and implement policies, plans etc in the organization. Managers are the first to be contacted for suggestions with regard to overall information about the organization. Taking into consideration the importance of managers in the organization and a critical review of literature which revealed that the study on work motivation, burnout and intention to leave has not been conducted so far on the top level managers of garment industry of Delhi and NCR, the researcher found a gap to be filled by  conducting investigation on this sample for the variables in question. So the sample of the present study consists of top level managers of garment industry of Delhi and NCR. Thus, a convenient sampling method was used for drawing the sample from 60 garment export houses of Delhi and 40 of NCR. This paper gives a deep insight of work motivation, burnout and intention to leave for the top level managers of the garment industry of Delhi/NCR. In this paper we have checked the relationship of all dimensions of work motivation with the dimensions of burnout and intention to leave and have observed that all dimensions of work motivation have some more or less relationship with each dimension of burnout but neither of the dimensions of work motivation or total work motivation have any relationship with intention to leave. So even if top level managers leave their current job they don’t leave because of lack of work motivation.
