The aim of this research was to explore the correlates of Turnover Intention. The correlates included Organization-based Self-esteem (OBSE), Job Stress (JS), Emotional Intelligence (EI), and Health Risk Behaviour (HRB) among Rescue 1122 Workers. The study also aimed to explore Emotional Intelligence (EI) as a predictor of Turnover Intention (TI); Organizationbased Self-esteem (OBSE), Job Stress (JS) and Health Risk Behaviour (HRB) among Rescue 1122 Workers. The sample of the study consisted of 200 male Rescue 1122 Workers of Lahore city. Systematic Random Sampling was employed to gather data from participants. Correlational Research Design was used. The major tools of this study included Turnover Intention Scale, Organization based Self-esteem Scale, The Subjective Job Stress Scale, Emotional Intelligence Scale and Health Risk Behaviour Questionnaire. These above mentioned tools were used after taking consent from the participants. Correlation and Regression Analysis were applied on the data. The results showed that there was significant positive relationship between Turnover Intention and Job Stress. Furthermore there was significant negative relationship between Turnover Intention and OBSE. Moreover Emotional Intelligence (EI) was a significant predictor of OBSE, Job Stress (JS), and Health Risk Behaviour (HRB).

Purpose- This study aimed to examine the predictive role of organizational-based self-esteem and organizational identification on turnover intention while also studying the mediating effect of organizational trust among employees across five organizations. Design/Methodology- This study utilized the cross-sectional research design and quantitative approach for data collection.  The study sample comprises 131 employees drawn from five organizations with a mean age of 33.15 years (SD, 7.97). Standardized instruments (questionnaires) were used for data collection. The IBM-SPSS Statistics and Hayes PROCESS macro (model 4) was used for testing the hypotheses and conducting the mediational analysis. Findings- The results of the study revealed a significant negative relationship between organizational-based self-esteem and turnover intention (β= -.33, p < .01), and also a significant negative relationship between organizational identification and turnover intention (β=-.29, p < .01). Organizational trust was also found to mediate both relationships. Practical Implications- The results of this study highlight the importance of organizational-based self-esteem, organizational identification and trust in reducing turnover intention. The study recommends that to keep employees in the organization, human resources management (HRM) needs to foster trust, build practice that will promote identification and attachment, and enhance the relationship between the organization and employees.

The 2 types of exchange relationship perceptions—social exchange relationship perceptions (SERPs) and economic exchange relationship perceptions (EERPs)—constitute the primary concept for understanding individual behavior in the workplace. Using a sample of 581 employees from Mainland China, I explored the effects of SERPs and EERPs on employee extrarole behavior (ERB), as well as the moderating effect of organization-based self-esteem (OBSE) on the relationships between SERPs and ERB, and between EERPs and ERB. The results revealed a significant positive relationship between SERPs and ERB, a significant negative relationship between EERPs and ERB, and a significant moderating effect for OBSE. Theoretical and practical implications of these findings are discussed.

Every human being will one day experience a tense period in the short term when facing known problems such as career pressures, family disputes or quarrels, material pressures, and personal despair, and we will think that this is depression, which is not is an important problem because it will resolve itself, but none of these fleeting conditions is depression. Good emotional intelligence can reduce aggression, especially in adolescents. Therefore, if emotions are managed successfully, the individual will be able to entertain themselves when overwritten by sadness, can release anxiety, moodiness or offense and rise quickly again from it all. This research is field research with a correlational approach, exploring the relationship between depression and emotional intelligence in married students. The results of the hypothesis test show that between emotional intelligence and depression in married students has a significant negative relationship (XY = -0.411; sig = 0.014 <0.05). This is in accordance with the data obtained from the SPSS 19 for Windows program, stating that r table 0.334 and r xy (r hit) -0.411, said to be significant if r xy = 0.411> r table = 0.334. In other words, the higher the emotional intelligence of students who are married, the lower the possibility of depression.

Health risk behaviour contributes markedly to today’s major killers. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted to assess current awareness and practice of health risk behaviour among Egyptian university students. Only 121 students [18%] were practising risky behaviour. Tobacco use, alcohol and drugs use and risky sexual behaviour were positively correlated. Multiple regression analysis revealed that the main determinants of risky behaviour were being a male, of older age, having a high allowance and having no attention to danger. About 30% of students lacked adequate knowledge on AIDS. Most of those who had sexual relationships did not use contraceptives or any method of protection from sexually transmitted infection. Main sources of knowledge were the media [38%] then peers [30%]

Monitoring population-level health-risk behaviour is integral to preventing chronic diseases (i.e., diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer, etc.). Physical activity and sleep are the key behaviours which influence human health. Smart technologies can be used to improve real-time monitoring of risky behaviours. The objective of this study is to explore population- and individual-level remote monitoring of sleep, indoor physical activity and sedentary behaviours in Canada using data from the Internet of Things (IoT) (ecobee smart thermostat) and fitness trackers. Method: 386 person-hours of data were collected in a pilot study (n =8) to validate the motion sensor data from ecobee smart thermostats. Then, using “Donate your Data” data from ecobee indicators of population-level health were calculated. Results: A positive Spearman correlation coefficient 0.8 (p>0.0001) was found between standard fitness tracker data and ecobee sensors validating its use for population-level analysis. Our results were similar to the Public Health Agency of Canada’s results derived from self-reported surveillance methods. Discussion: This project demonstrates the use of data from non-health sources, like ubiquitous IoT to curate population- and individual-level health indicators. We will deliver novel indicators and insights into health status through the creation of user-centered designed dashboards for individuals, researchers, and policy-makers.

Media plays a very significant and influential role in our day today life. Everyday programs include advertisement and entertainment programmes like serials etc., but now a days, everyday at least five risky behaviours are witnessed by the public. The present study was planned to know the role of media in relation to health risk behavior. The selection of the sample was done randomly in Siddavatam village and Kadapa town. After obtaining prior information, the subjects were contacted individually at their home and explained the purpose of the study and seeking their co-operation. The obtained data was analyzed and results show that health risk behavior is commonly witnessed in the media and found less preventive measures to reduce health risk behaviour. The links between media consumption and smoking and alcohol use also are strong and there is good evidence that they are causal. Currently there is need of high-quality research to make it possible to say whether the links are causal. To better understand the effect of the media on youth risk behavior, researchers will have to develop comprehensive explanatory models that include socioeconomic and cultural variables.
