The aim of the study is to explore the relationship between a net profit of Nepalese commercial banks with staff expenses and staff bonus. This study is based on panel data which is collected from five sampled banks through the review of the annual report during the study period of fiscal year 2012/13 to 2016/17. These collected data are analyzed by using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficient, and log-log multiple regression models. The Mini-Tab software is used for the analysis of data. The results indicate that the predictor variable staff expenses do not significantly impact on net profits of the bank even though they are positively correlated. On the other hand, the response variable (net profit) is significantly affected by the predictor variable staff bonus. Researcher: A Research Journal of Culture and SocietyVol. 3, No. 3, January 2018, Page: 63-71

Energy consumers in Nigeria have long complained about Distribution Companies' unfair billing practices, exorbitant monthly electricity bills resulting from meter estimation rather than accurate meter reading and calculation based on uninterrupted electricity use. The objectives of the study were to establish the relationship between the prepaid metering system and customer satisfaction; and to evaluate the level of satisfaction with respect to the usage of the prepaid metering system in Niger State, Nigeria. In carrying out the study, the structured questionnaire was administered to 393 randomly chosen respondents drawn from prepaid meter users, out of which 344 responded generating a response rate of 87.5%. The data derived were subjected to spearman correlation and multiple regression models. The major findings from the study showed a significant, moderate and positive relationship between the prepaid metering system and customer satisfaction. Additionally, three significant predictors, Affordability, Availability and Flexibility with p < .01 are statistically significant. Further findings from descriptive statistics revealed that users had the highest level of satisfaction with the privacy they had as a result of no meter readers and no accumulated. The study concluded that there exist a positive and beneficial link between the prepaid metering system and customer satisfaction. The study therefore recommends the provision of a smart metering system, good customer care units and a marketing campaign for better knowledge of the prepaid metering system.

Purpose: This study was done to examine the relationship between participation motivation, satisfaction and continuance willingness of voluntary activities of nursing students, and to identify factors influencing continuance willingness of voluntary activities. Methods: The research participants were 175 nursing students in the nursing departments of 3 universities located in G city and J province in Korea. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression. Results: Participants' scores for participation motivation, satisfaction and continuance willingness of voluntary activities were $3.24{pm}0.76$, $3.11{pm}0.83$ and $3.03{pm}0.85$ respectively. Participation motivation and satisfaction of voluntary activities had positive correlations. Satisfaction and continuance willingness of voluntary activities had positive correlations. Factors influencing nursing students' continuance willingness of voluntary activities included participation motivation and satisfaction of voluntary activities. And these variables explained 74% of the variance in continuance willingness of voluntary activities. Conclusion: The findings show that development and application of educational programs to increase participation motivation and satisfaction of voluntary activities are important and will improve nursing students' continuance willingness of voluntary activities.

Coastal sediment can be classified by functional bottom type, depending on whether cohesive fine material is eroded (E), transported (T) or deposited/accumulated (A) there. The assessment of such bottom dynamic conditions is useful in many ways, including as a fundament for structuring mass balance models. In this paper more than 200 recently investigated Swedish coastal areas were analyzed using geographic information systems (GIS). Statistical relationships between morphometry, the average proportion of A-areas (BA) and the average critical depth (DTA), which separates ET-areas from A-areas, were investigated. Many morphometric parameters showed significant correlation with both BA and DTA and multiple regression models were obtained that could explain much of the variation in these parameters. Parameters describing sheltering effects from islands, mean depth and mean slope were important in this context. Large differences were found in empirical BA-values from two different sources. Furthermore, a new empirical dataset was presented for 209 Swedish coastal areas.

Objetivo: Relacionar duas equações do método antropométrico do Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC) proposto por Quételet e Trefethen em mulheres. Métodos: A amostra foi constituída por 222 mulheres do município de Canoinhas/SC, com idades entre 18 e 49 anos. Para as medidas antropométricas foi avaliada a massa corporal e a estatura. Por meio dos dados obtidos foi calculado o IMC utilizando às fórmulas: Quételet= (kg/m2) e Trefethen= (1,3*kg/m2,5). Na análise dos dados realizou-se a estatística descritiva, o fator de correlação de Pearson (r) foi realizado para verificar a relação entre os métodos e o teste de Bland-Altman foi utilizado para verificar a concordância entre as equações. Foi adotado um nível de significância de p<0,05. Resultados: Foi encontrada uma relação muito forte e significante (r= 0,98; p= <0,001) com intervalo de confiança (IC 95% = 0,93-0,99) e concordância entre as equações do IMC. Conclusão: A equação do IMC de Trefethen apresentou associação muito forte e significante com a equação IMC de Quételet em mulheres.AbstractObjective: To relate two equations of the anthropometric method of the Body Mass Index (BMI) proposed by Quételet and Trefethen in women. Methods: The sample consisted of 222 women from the municipality of Canoinhas/SC, aged between 18 and 49 years. For the anthropometric measures body mass and height were evaluated. By means of the data obtained, the BMI was calculated using the formulas: Quételet= (kg/m2) and Trefethen= (1,3*kg/m2,5). In the data analysis, descriptive statistics were performed, the Pearson correlation coefficient (r) was performed to verify the relationship between the methods and the Bland-Altman test was used to verify the concordance between the equations. A significance level of p <0.05 was adopted. Results: A very strong and significant relationship was found (r= 0.98, p= <0.001) with a confidence interval (95% CI= 0.93-0.99) and concordance between the BMI equations. Conclusion: The BMI equation of Trefethen showed a very strong and significant association with the BMI equation of Quételet in women.

The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between intellectual capital efficiency and the firm's profitability. The importance of intellectual capital (IC) and the related philosophy of the knowledge economy have captured the attention of researchers and business enterprises in the World Trade Organization (WTO) era. IC is widely recognized as a tool that is critical to running a successful business in a highly competitive environment. Various models have been introduced to measure the numerous facets of IC, including the Skandia navigator, Tobin's Q, and value added intellectual coefficient (VAIC). This article examines the role of IC efficiency in the firm’s net profit using the VAIC developed by Ante Pulic (1998). It also investigates its correlation with the firm’s profitability, using regression models.

Alienation is a state of mind in which an individual feels lonely and has a low level of attachment with her society, fails to get control over the environment and gradually becomes isolated and helpless. Psychiatric disorders refer to what a person feels, thinks and act that lead her towards the mental disturbance or spoil his areas of functioning. The present study investigated the relationship between social alienation and psychiatric disorders among university students. 600 students were selected as a sample from different departments of a university. A scale for alienation developed by Guerrero and Castillo (1966) and a scale for psychiatric disorders developed by Lovibond and Lovibond (1995) were used to collect the data. The collected data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics and Pearson Correlation. Results showed that certain level of social alienation and psychiatric disorders exist among students, and there was a positive association between social alienation and psychiatric disorders.
