Sentimental analysis and opinion extraction are emerging fields at AI. These approaches help organizations to use the opinions, sentiments, and subjectivity of their consumers in decision-making. Sentiments, views, and opinions show the feeling of the consumers towards a given product or service. In recent years, Opinion Mining and Sentiment Analysis has become an important tool to detect the factors affecting mental health. It’s Also true that human biasness is available in giving opinions, but it can be eliminated through the use of algorithms to get better results. However, it is crucial to remember that the developers are human and might pass the biasness to the algorithms during training. The main target of this paper is to give background knowledge on opinion extraction and sentimental analysis and how factors affecting mental health can be collected. The paper aimed to use interested individuals in knowing some of the algorithms in opinions extraction and sentimental analysis. The paper also provides benefits of using sentiment analysis and some of the challenges of using the algorithms.

Purpose Research has shown that non-governmental organizations (NGOs) often fail to appreciate that in their market, donors represent clients. Moreover, the unstable income characteristics of NGOs emphasize the importance of conducting market analysis specific to such organizations. The purpose of this paper is to identify key factors that influence fundraising success for mental health NGOs and determine the most advantageous fundraising approach based on a mixed-methods study that encompass a literature review, two surveys and a case study. Design/methodology/approach Based on a structured literature review, the most important factors affecting NGO fundraising are unified into a decision-making framework. This framework is tested using a triangulation approach by combining quantitative and qualitative methods. The former based on a general survey and the latter based on a case study. Findings The results highlight 15 key factors determining the optimal approach for mental health NGOs when fundraising in Denmark. Practical implications The decision-making framework can be used to assess the most advantageous fundraising approach based on a variety of internal and external circumstances. Originality/value While private firms develop exhaustive market analyses, NGOs often lack analyses to cope with fluctuating environments and changing customer needs. This paper addresses this gap by identifying key factors that determine an optimal fundraising approach and proposes a novel decision-making framework for practitioners.

This research aimed to explore the impact of difficulties faced by adolescents in making a career decision on their mental health. The objective of the research was to explore the factors affecting career decision making and to explore the psychological effect of career decision making difficulties. A quantitative research design was used to collect data through online survey by random sampling method in which a sample of 70 adolescents aged between 18-24 both male (28) and female (42) were collected from Rawalpindi, Pakistan and then analyzed on SPSS. A correlation (p: .002) was found between career indecisiveness and mental health. Independent T test result suggested that gender difference exists with respect to career indecisiveness indicating a value of p to be .01, while one way ANOVA indicated a value of p to be .382, showing that no significant difference exist with respect to respondents age. A chi square result indicated the factors affecting career decision making to be parental (p: .000) and peer pressure (p: .002) and indicated that career decision making time period is stressful for adolescents who feel difficulty in making a career decision (p: .000) indicating a psychological effect. Thus, the hypothesis was proved that adolescents face career decision making difficulties which negatively impact their mental health and it is recommended that they should be given career guidance to help them out in exploring what they really want to do in their lives instead of making a wrong career and regretting it later.


Various fields like Text Mining, Linguistics, Decision Making and Natural Language Processing together form the basis for Opinion Mining or Sentiment Analysis. People share their feelings, observations and thoughts on social media, which has emerged as a powerful tool for rapidly growing enormous repository of real time discussions and thoughts shared by people. In this paper, we aim to decipher the current popular opinions or emotions from various sources, hence, contributing to sentiment analysis domain. Text from social media, blogs and product reviews are classified according to the sentiment they project. We re-examine the traditional processes of sentiment extraction, to incorporate the increase in complexity and number of the data sources and relevant topics, while re-populating the meaning of sentiment. Working across and within numerous streams of social media, expression of sentiment and classification of polarity is re-examined, thereby redefining and enhancing the realm of sentiment. Numerous social media streams are analyzed to build datasets that are topical for each stream and are later polarized according to their sentiment expression. In conclusion, defining a sentiment and developing tools for its analysis in real time of human idea exchange is the motive.

Sentiment analysis (SA), also called as opinion mining is the technique for the removal of opinions of a specific entity or feature from reviews dataset. The opinions of other users help in decision making process of people. This paper studies different methods that are aimed at SA. These approaches vary from semantic based methods, machine learning, neural networks, syntactical methods with each having its own strength. Although hybrid approach also exists where the idea is to combine strengths of two or more methods to increase the accuracy. A framework in which sentiment analysis is done by using word embedding and feature reduction techniques is also proposed. Word embedding is a technique in which low-dimensional vector representation of words is provided. Feature reduction method is used with Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier. The framework will perform sentiment analysis of user opinions by using a machine learning approach and provides a recommendation system for the ease of decision making for users. The proposed system in this paper has solved the scalability problem and improved the accuracy.

An unanticipated outburst of pneumonia of inexperienced in Wuhan, , China stated in December 2019. World health organization has recognized pathogen and termed it COVID-19.

To many social theoreticians, the population explosion, particularly in the developing nations presents a crippling threat to their developmental pro¬cesses. Their argument's validity rests mainly on the assumption that expected economic progress is swallowed up by unbalanced rise of numbers in the population. The book being reviewed deals mainly with this subject matter and is divided into two parts, each containing three articles contributed by various researchers. Part one, 'The Social context of Fertility Decision' is focused on analyzing the role of factors affecting fertility at the micro-level decision making process. The first article 'Fertility decision in rural India' by Vinod Jainath, examines the applicability to rural India of various models of the process of fertility decision making and finds most of these wanting with respect to the Indian social situation. While analyzing the fertility patterns of Rural India, he points out the positive need for larger families among the poor small farmers mainly due to labour supply considerations. The author argues that unemployment and under¬employment actually motivate the poor to have more children as it better ensures their economic security in their old age. As the chances of gaining employ¬ment for their offspring diminish, they are induced to increase the total number of children in order that atleast one will be able to support them. Thus a vicious circle of poverty arises in large families because of each of the parents wanting to increase their children's chances of employment by ultimately reducing the overall employment opportunities even further and exacerbating their poverty.
