Selection in Hyderabad, Pakistan. Method/Design: There are three independent variables selected, which are Financial Variable, Institutional Awareness and Institutional characteristics and the selected dependent variable is University selection. A 5 Likert scale adopted questionnaire was used as the instrument for the research. The data was gathered from a sample of 130 students and was analyzed by applying reliability (Cronbach’s Alpha) and Multiple regression in SPSS version 20. Findings: It was concluded from the findings of the research that Financial Variable and Institutional characteristics have a positive and significant impact on university selection. Whereas, Institutional Awareness was found to have negative and insignificant impact on university selection. Practical Implications: It is recommended that universities should consider these factors in order to increase the enrollment in their university. This will also improve the name and reputation of the university. Students should also consider these factors in order to select a proper university.

Literacy Level

This research examines the factors affecting the financial literacy of Vietnamese adults. Using a sample of 266 observations of adults in 2 big cities in Vietnam (Hanoi and Vinh in Nghe An Province), the author evaluates the literacy level of adults in these urban areas. The financial literacy of the interviewed people is low. The multiple regression results show that lower financial literacy levels associate with higher age and married status and higher financial literacy levels associate with higher education, more family members, the person making financial decisions and the person attending a useful financial course. This research also explores the association between financial literacy and financial behaviors of individuals employing logistic models. It is found that higher financial literacy associates with less probability of overspending and higher probability of saving money and careful spending. Higher financial literacy is also found to associate with higher probability of opening a savings account and making various investments.

Strong Linkage

Correlation between 13 genetic variations of the glutaminyl-peptide cyclotransferase gene andadjusted aBMD was tested among 384 adult women. Among 13 variations with strong linkage disequilibrium,R54W showed a prominent association (p ? 0.0003), which was more striking when examined among 309 eldersubjects (>50 years; p ? 0.0001). Contribution for postmenopausal bone loss was suggested.Introduction: Alterations in homeostatic regulation of estrogen through the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal axis(HPG axis) importantly affect the pathogenesis of osteoporosis. Osteoporosis-susceptibility genes have beenproposed in this hormonal axis, such as estrogen receptor genes and the gonadotropin-releasing hormone gene(GnRH). Here we report another example of genes: glutaminyl-peptide cyclotransferase gene (QPCT), an essentialmodifier of pituitary peptide hormones, including GnRH.Materials and Methods: Analyses of association of 13 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at the QPCT locuswith adjusted areal BMD (adj-aBMD) were carried out among 384 adult women. Linkage disequilibrium (LD) wasanalyzed by haplotype estimation and calculation of D? and r2. Multiple regression analysis was applied forevaluating the combined effects of the variations.Results and Conclusions: LD analysis indicated strong linkage disequilibrium within the entire 30-kb region of theQPCT gene. Significant correlations were observed between the genotypes of the six SNPs and the radial adj-aBMD,among which R54W (nt ? 160C?T) presented the most prominent association (p ? 0.0003). Striking associationwas observed for these SNPs among the 309 subjects ?50 years of age (R54W, p ? 0.0001; ?1095T?C, p ?0.0002; ?1844C?T, p ? 0.0002). Multiple regression analyses indicated that multiple SNPs in the gene might actin combination to determine the radial adj-aBMD. These results indicate that genetic variations in QPCT are theimportant factors affecting the BMD of adult women that contribute to susceptibility for osteoporosis. The datashould provide new insight into the etiology of the disease and may suggest a new target to be considered duringtreatment.J Bone Miner

Global pandemics are not a new phenomenon. They have occurred at different points in time and can be of different scales. COVID-19 appeared in 2020 and its spread has reached more than 60 countries worldwide. This research aims to analyze voluntary self-isolation behavior used to cope with the COVID-19 pandemic. As part of this study, we carried out sampling in Colombia and Spain, which share similar cultural characteristics but which have substantial social and economic differences. A multi-group model was used to test the application of the theory of planned behavior and the theory of reasoned action in order to analyze self-isolation behavior. The results show that there are differences in self-isolation behavior between both countries, especially with regard to attitudes towards self-isolation and volitional behavior.

Banking sector is the backbone of any economy, so it is necessary to focus on its performance which is largely affected by its non-performing assets (NPAs). In the year 2018–2019, NPA of scheduled banks was Rs 355,076 Crore which is 3.7% of net advances. The purpose of this study is to identify the determinants based on analysis from previous literatures, and majorly macroeconomic and bank specific factors which are affecting NPAs using the relative weight analysis and to frame a model to predict future NPAs using multiple regression model using SPSS. The study also attempts to focus on actions and remedies that banks should make to control future NPAs. Findings of the study will act as a scaffolding for financial analysts and policymakers to prevent the conversion of its performing assets into NPAs and also help in proper management of banks and also in the recovery of economy.

<p><strong>Purpose: </strong>Although the phenomenon of Organizational Silence (OS) is widely seen in organizations, there is little empirical evidence regarding its nature and components. The purpose of this research is to identify the types of OS and its effects on JE at Menoufia University Hospitals in Egypt.</p><p><strong>Design/methodology/approach</strong>: To assess OS, refer to (OS questionnaire, Schechtman, 2008; Brinsfield, 2009) and JE (JE questionnaire, Rich et al., 2010). Five dimensions of OS are constructed and measured in order to examine their effects on JE at Menoufia University Hospitals in Egypt. Out of the 338 questionnaires that were distributed to employees, 300 usable questionnaires were returned, a response rate of 88%. Multiple Regression Analysis (MRA) was used to confirm the research hypotheses.</p><p><strong>Findings: </strong>Results indicate that supervisors’ attitudes to silence, top management attitudes to silence and communication opportunities are associated and predict ES behaviour. The research has found that there is significant relationship between OS and JE. Also, the research has found that OS directly affects JE. In other words, OS is one of the biggest barriers to organizational engagement of the employees at Menoufia University Hospitals in Egypt.</p><p><strong>Practical implications:</strong> This research contributes to stimulate scientific research, particularly in terms of testing the model content, as well as studying the research variables and the factors affecting them. In addition, this research pointed to the need for organizations to adopt a culture which encourages and urges employees to speak in the labor issues and the non-silence in order for the administration to be able to realize these issues and try to solve them first hand in order to prevent their aggravation.</p><p><strong>Originality/value: </strong>Although the phenomenon of silence is expected in organizations, there is little empirical evidence in the literature aimed at defining, analyzing, and coping with it. Silence climate has an impact on the ability of organizations to detect errors and learn. Therefore, organizational effectiveness is negatively affected. This research aims to measure the effect of OS on JE. Based on the findings of this research, some important implications are discussed.</p>
