<p><em>This research aims to understand the relationship between socioeconomic factors, production, transparency with religiosity. The effects of socio-economic factors, production, transparency, and religiosity on the sharecropping contract system. Design/methodology/approach: The author has administered a survey to 800 respondents. The respondents were asked to give their responses based on a five-point Likert scale. The data has been tested with SEM to show the relationship between the various factors. Finding: SEM results show that H<sub>1</sub> is not supported while H<sub>2</sub>, H<sub>3</sub>, H<sub>4</sub>, H<sub>5</sub>, H<sub>6</sub>, and H<sub>7</sub> are supported. Findings show that religiosity impacts the sharecropping system while the interaction between religiosity and transparency on the sharecropping system is significantly negative. Therefore, the current sharecropping contract system in East Java does not operate following Islamic values. </em></p>

In Albania almost 50% of the household expenditures go for food. The levels of the food have change by years but still have a considered weight in household budget. The study shows the trend and the significant factors that influence the food and non food consumption for different economic levels of the households in Albania. Household composition, geographic characteristics and other material deprivation dimensions have an important impact to the consumption trend and household wellbeing. The data refers to the Living Standard Measurement Survey (LSMS), which measure poverty through expenditures method. It is a multidimensional survey and gives us the possibility to have multi indicators and also disaggregate and test the relationship and influence. This paper shows the trend by household size, for different regions, the typology of the household and other socio-economic factors that may influence the food and non food expenditures trend. It is used the descriptive analyses and quintile regression of different foods level by different factors. The calculations are done using SPSS and Stata.

Abstract Background: Emotional eating, the tendency to overeat in response to negative emotions, has often been linked to weight gain. However, scant evidence exists examining prevalence and correlates of emotional eating among large samples of adults in the United States (US). Hence, we examine the relationship between individual and socio-economic factors, health behaviors, and self-regulation to emotional eating patterns among US adults. Methods: Cross-sectional analysis of 5,863 Family Health Habits Survey participants. Multivariable ordered logistic regression was employed to examine the relationship between the frequency of the desire to eat when emotionally upset (never, rarely, sometimes, often, and very often) to the independent variables. Results: Analysis reveals that 20.5% of the sample tended to emotionally eat often or very often. Being female, non-Hispanic white, and of younger age were all related to a higher likelihood of emotional eating. Additionally, inability to delay gratification (impatience) was related to an 18% increased likelihood (95%CI 1.05-1.33) for emotional eating. Finally, emotional eating was significantly related to more frequent fast food consumption, and increased alcohol intake. Conclusions: Program planners might need to develop targeted interventions aimed at enhancing emotional regulation skills while addressing these less healthful behaviors (e.g., fast-food intake) with the ultimate goal of obesity and chronic disease prevention. To examine the relationship between individual and socio-economic factors, health behaviors, and self-regulation to emotional eating patterns among adults.

The location of the study was determined intentionally (purposive sampling), while the respondents were determined by means of professional random sampling of members of farmer groups, and intentionally towards the chairmen and secretaries of each farmer group. The number of respondents was 48 people. The type of data collected is primary data and secondary data. Data collected was analyzed using a Likert Scale, and Sperman Rank nonparametric statistical tests. The results showed that: (1) the dynamics of farmer groups in Nunkurus Village, East Kupang District, Kupang Regency was classified as "quite dynamic" (65%). The atmosphere of the group contributes the most, namely 70% while the element of developing and fostering the group contributes only 60%, and (2) the socioeconomic factor of the level of education has a significant relationship with the dynamics of the farmer group in Nunkurus Village. While socio-economic factors of age, experience of farming, land area and number of family dependents have insignificant relationship with the dynamics of farmer groups in Nunkurus Village, East Kupang District, Kupang Regency.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate road users attitudes and preferences towards accidents and safety measures in Kuwait. The paper also quantifies impacts of user’s attitudes on the perception of being safe while using roads in Kuwait. Design/methodology/approach – In this paper, a review of relevant literature, has been carried out, then a questionnaire has been piloted and implemented to collect data. The main survey was carried out in 2013. A total of 700 distributed questionnaires resulted in the return of 427 completed questionnaires. Findings – Results show that socio economic, attitudes and work commitment factors, all contribute to the behaviour and attitudes of road users in Kuwait. Research limitations/implications – Data are limited due to time constraints. Originality/value – There is very little knowledge of modelling and analysing factors which affect drivers’ behaviour towards safety in Kuwait.

Abstract Objectives People under stress tend to use unhealthy coping mechanisms including using products like alcohol, tobacco and unhealthy snacks. The purpose of this study is to assess how measures of community socio-economic status, which may be proxies for community stress, are associated with the sales of unhealthy products (alcohol, tobacco, and unhealthy snacks) at a discount variety store chain. Specifically, we consider the following measures of community socio-economic status: population racial/ethnic composition, % of households on SNAP, % of households without a vehicle, walkability score and median community income. Methods Mixed effects linear regressions with random effects were used to examine the relationship between the weekly unit sales (per 1000 population) of three outcome variables (tobacco, alcohol, unhealthy snacks) and community socio-economic factors: % of households on SNAP, % of households without a vehicle, and median community income. Results The sales of alcohol, tobacco, and unhealthy snacks increased as the % of the population participating in SNAP increased. Other measures of community socio-economic status were not significantly (at 5% significance level) associated with tobacco or unhealthy snack sales. However, for alcohol sales, increases in: the median household income, walkability score and % of African American residents, were associated with a decrease in alcohol sales. Conclusions Low income neighborhoods frequently experience greater health burden compared to higher income neighborhoods. Understanding and quantifying the relationship between financial stress and unhealthy product consumption can help public health professionals intervene before chronic diseases manifest.
