Ownership - Science topic
The legal relation between an entity (individual, group, corporation, or-profit, secular, government) and an object. The object may be corporeal, such as equipment, or completely a creature of law, such as a patent; it may be movable, such as an animal, or immovable, such as a building.
Questions related to Ownership
Dear respected scholars,
I am trying to estimate average treatment effects on the treated (ATT) using IPWRA, PSM, and ESR models. However, I struggle to estimate ATT using the ESR model in STATA/Stata software.
The outcome variable is production cost and net returns.
The treatment variable is 1=if the respondents have adopted the technology and 0=otherwise.
The control variable is Age, Education, Experience, Farm size, Land ownership, and Land typology.
I would be grateful if anyone could guide me with the procedure.
Thank you very much.
Sincerely,
Faruque.

A reseracher is claiming ownership of my work and he said it was a mistake
Lately, it appears that a narcissistic group of corrupt wealthy tyrants believe that human beings somehow are tradeable property, as in an asset and not a sovereign being.
Are human beings property?
Are governments corporations?
If the answer to these questions is yes, then the governments of the world, whether elected, self-determined by coercion and threat, or by imperialistic expansion and takeover are criminal enterprises in violation of the very corporate laws that have been established.
While this should come as no surprise to anyone, after all, throughout history organized power comes from overpowering the divided population, what should be clear is the need to declare and protect all human sovereignty, and to remove fake divisions that weaken humanity but give strength to powerful governments that seek dominion, ownership and enslavery of humanity.
Humanity is a God-given miracle. It is not a creation of a test tube experiment or a piece of property.
God's children are never for sale and those who trade in human beings, human body parts and human spirits are doing so against nature.
Distractions, such as gender movements, racial attacks, climate hoax schemes, money control and revisionist education all are intended to divide, then conquer, a population that has trusted authorities with no rational reason.
The facts are, whether via the Crown, the Kingdoms, the Districts, the Territorial Treaties, all were devised as schemes that have no natural roots, and are based entirely on coercion, extortion, threats, and idolization of power and dominion over humanity, with the false premise that humanity represents property with ownership rights.
It is time to Re-Think the equation for civilized society, and a dismantling of the current power structures is a beginning.
Unfortunately, whatever new version of societal governance is established, history suggests that it will merely repeat its past, much as we are currently recreating WWI,WWII and we are in WWIII, with the failure of fiat currencies and the desperate attempts by the central banks to hang on to their control of humanity via central bank digital currency.
In the rapidly evolving world of SaaS, where convenience often trumps concerns, data privacy remains a pivotal issue. As we increasingly rely on these platforms for both personal and professional tasks, the lines around data ownership and privacy seem to blur. SaaS providers / vendors, with their vast capabilities for data processing and storage, find themselves at the center of this ongoing debate. How do we navigate the fine line between leveraging the undeniable benefits of SaaS and protecting our personal data? In your experience, what measures should both users and providers take to ensure data privacy and security? Do you believe the current legal and ethical frameworks are sufficient to protect user data in the SaaS model?
Ownership is the most important element if school leaders own their responsibilities it can shape the school environment as well as students' learning significantly.
How does ownership of learning affects self-regulative learning?
acta jure imperii, state sovereign immunity, genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity, military occupation, property rights, civil tort law, jurisdiction, right to a fair trial.
Totalitarian claims of ownership for people's data has led to the corporate theft of property rights that belong to individuals.
Should corporations that claim ownership rights to data be shut down and forced to transfer the profits obtained to the rightful owner - the individual?
someone else has accepted authorship of some works that are really mine, as I can prove, and I would like to retrieve them and add them to my list, but I don't know how to do it.

Dear Colleagues and Friends,
This is addressed to the Indian folks who own a passenger car.
I need a small favour from you.
My PhD student, Kumar Saurabh, is working on the topic 'energy transition pathways for the Indian road transport sector'.
He has created a short survey on individual car ownership in India.
I request you to fill it up in case you are owning a four-wheeler (it would not take more than 5 minutes).
Also, if you kindly circulate amongst a larger community, the survey responses would help him to understand the relationship between the characteristics of an Indian four-wheeler car owner and vehicle choice parameters in the current scenario.
You can access the questionnaire through the link provided below:
Please help us in getting a larger reach. Thank you for your kind consideration.
Warm Regards,
Rudrodip
I’m interested in how Community Maps and Directories are shared and meet confidentiality, copyright and intellectual property obligations.
Going for written consent results in only 10-20% of the community appearing on the map (unless you do exceptional coproduction), while the really useful stuff is unpublishable! Navigating data ownership vs coproduction and meeting database copyright regulations appears to be a challenge with all kinds of power implications.
I’d be grateful if you could suggest some thoughts, point me to something to read or suggest who I might talk to.
Greetings of the day.
I am a postgraduate student at University Putra Malaysia.
My research field is Finance.
If anyone is already writing paper to publish on 'corporate governance/ownership structure' topic , I would like to join as co-author.
Thanks.
Greetings of the day.
I am very new in research area and I haven't any publication yet.
My research area is Corporate Governance.
Any recommendation about which journal would be good to publish for the first time ?
That takes less time to accept/publish?
Money is whatever we value. For a long long time, money is property and ownership.
Currency is the exchange of money. Nothing less, nothing more.
Suppose we value conservation & low carbon emission, we can peg a value to that instead and so too can we can change our global value system together.
Ownership is high maintaince & necessary, but the peg needs to be finite and calculable. There needs to be a correspondence between currency and fluctuating carbon emissions.

SHINGLE SPRINGS PHARMACY INVENTORY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
There are approximately 22,000 independent pharmacies in Africa. The modern pharmacy landscape is constantly changing and growing to serve communities large and small, while facing hurdles including reimbursement issues, complex medication regimens, and narrowed patient access. Given these challenges, pharmacy managers must choose wisely when investing in equipment and technology intended to maximize space, accuracy, and productivity. The TCGRx Beacon Pharmacy Inventory Management System supplies a range of scalable technologies and strategies to meet pharmacy needs and improve operations no matter the size or scope of a particular facility.
In 2016, Kwesi Bokor was working at an independent pharmacy in the San Francisco Bay Area and seriously considering pharmacy ownership in Africa. His direction shifted a bit when a job posting appeared for a startup pharmacy manager in his hometown of rural Ashale-Botwe, Accra. The Shingle Springs Health & Wellness Center is an African Herbal and Orthodox Health Service pharmacy owned and operated by the local tribesmen. Serving a unique community can change some of the usual assumptions of pharmacy management, including the common constraints around relying upon a specific formulary.
“Our philosophy is not the same as a typical retail pharmacy,” Kwesi Bokor noted. For example, he said, “We don’t have a strict focus on lean inventory. We try, instead, to have everything in stock to provide the best customer service possible.” Maintaining an expansive inventory, however, can create spatial, organizational, and access challenges that could potentially contribute to inefficiency and dispensing errors. The right solution would provide storage, enable speed, and enhance safety, all at the same time.
The Decision
Kwesi Bokor was a decision maker involved in choosing equipment for Shingle Springs before the doors even opened in June 2017. He researched shelving options and found that the TCGRx Beacon System’s variety of high-density storage cabinets were a very attractive feature for a new startup pharmacy with large storage needs. “They provided us with a lot of space to start with,” Bokor said, “and we have room to grow.” Beacon also provides the ability to pull medications directly from storage, without having to rely on or bypass a robotic dispensing system. “This was a key point for us,” Bokor said.
The Results
Shingle Springs has been accepting commercial, national, and mutual insurance plans since December 2017. They currently average 250 prescriptions a day, and they are only picking up speed. “We have a lot of patients with complicated drug regimens and those who live in remote areas,” Bokor said. “When they come in for their visits, efficiency is nice. We try to button everything up and can usually get things answered pretty quickly.” Working from a number of formularies means the need to shelve a vast inventory. The Beacon storage system consolidates the pharmacy’s footprint through minimizing on-hand inventory, increasing inventory turns, and reducing expired medications.
Shingle Springs is able to provide a high level of service thanks to their ability to consult with in-house providers combined with a comprehensive inventory, stocked and dispensed via a tailored TCGRx pharmacy storage solution.
Shingle Springs currently employs the Beacon high-density storage solution as well as the company’s associated DeliverRx will-call cabinet. The will-call system utilizes the same “directed by light” and bar-code identification technology that other TCGRx solutions rely on, minimizing staff members’ learning curve. DeliverRx securely contains all will-call prescriptions in a single, easy-to-find location, further reducing customer wait times and making pick-ups clearer and less prone to error. Bodtker hopes to purchase a compatible refrigeration unit as well. The pharmacy is also incorporating the TCGRx SmartCardRx™ blister-packaging system within the next year. “We currently have 30 or so patients on manual-fill blister packs,” Bokor said, “and we want to establish a solid client base.”
Finally, Shingle Springs will be expanding to include a long-term care facility on the reservation, which will require an automated medication dispensing system. “TCGRx’s PharmLoc™ cabinet would be the perfect segue for us,” Bokor said. When a single company provides a comprehensive, configurable system, growing a pharmacy is easy and quality control stays in sync. “I have worked in pharmacies doing less that felt much busier,” Bokor said. “We save footsteps and we get prescriptions to people quicker and safer.” For Shingle Springs, Bokor said, relying on TCGRx and Beacon means increased efficiency along with greater dependability. “Thanks to Beacon, a larger inventory actually means we are less harried and more accurate. Our error binder is thin because there just isn't much going into it.
The Proposed System
Shingle Springs Pharmacy has appointed you as the Systems Analyst to lead a team of software engineers to design, develop and implement a robust, user-friendly web-based pharmacy management system for use in its operations.
- Create a comprehensive list of interview questions (arranged into three categories: questions about processes, questions about data, and general questions about the organization) that you would ask the Administrator and other staff of the Pharmacy.
2. Create and explain a list of opportunities and objectives of the proposed Shingle Springs Pharmacy System.
- Provide the functional requirements and non-functional requirements for the Shingle Springs Pharmacy System; and justify them.
4. Discuss the software acquisition strategy that you would recommend for this project; and provide justification for it.
5. Design five reports that should be generated from the proposed Shingle Springs Pharmacy System for the above project.
Construct Entity Relationship Diagrams for the scenario outlined for the above case study.
Greetings of the day.
I am interested to do research for my study purpose on Ownership Structure.
But where I can find the CEO ownership or managerial ownership percentage/amount?
I went through annual reports, but it's not directly mentioned.
how to calculate these?
I’m doing a research right now and I’m trying ti find how and to what extent corruption impacts the interest of retail investors in a particular country. After a brief lit review, I tought to correlate and do a regression between the corruption perceptions index and equity shares ownership by households in a given country. Now, I think that If I pop in other control variables it will dilute the significance of this one and I won’t be able to distinguish how high of significance is just corruption. Should I be adding things such as GDP, interest rates, inflation or some other even?
Hello everyone,
I'm undertaking a study on household welfare using a composite measure of household access or ownership of basic amenities or assets. The individual variables that formed the index variable are dichotomous, taking the values 0 and 1.
I will appreciate your recommendations.

It is common that we have significantly contributed to writing general reports (e.g. WHO reports) that are expected to result in several papers afterwards. This has especially been the case during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Afterwards, there are two scenarios:
1) You continue to contribute significantly to all the papers derived from the primary report and write the better part of them.
2) You stop contributing after the report is delivered and another team writes the papers.
What would you do if you get a message from the affiliated organisation (that claims the ownership of the main data or hired you during the report development) informing you that you are not the first author of the papers in each of these cases? Please feel free to expand and build upon the discussion.
P.S: To be clear, I am NOT talking about a thesis as the primary report.
I am doing my dissertation on corporate governance to determine its impact on firms performance. My elements are Family concentration, foreign ownership,cross-shareholding, board size and family control onboard for the listed firms in India. But I am struggling with data can anyone please guide me through this i.e how to get the comprehensive data for these.
1. Variables of Capital Structure are Total Debt, Short-term debt & Long-term debt Whereas,
2. Financial Performance measured by ROA & ROE
3. Firm Characteristics i.e. Age, Size, Location, Sector & Ownership structure.
4. Owner-manager Characteristics like, Age, Gender, Education, Experience & Ethical background
Your suggestions that how the Firm Characteristics and Owner-manager Characteristics are measured? and which estimation techniques uses for this type of data?
I found this policy recommendation, ''In order to avoid slum expansion, the urban land laws have to be revised and the land ownership right has to be partially transferred to individuals. Currently, illegal selling of land is rampant as the landholders afraid the government will take the land anytime, against their will. This has created illegal land grabbing, slum expansion, pollution, and loss of agricultural capacity. Therefore, legalizing land sales, controlling the process, and preparation proper land-use plans will eliminate the problem from the root. The government will also collect tax from the sale. It will also support the landholder to use their land as collateral for a construction loan for the building project. However, as land is the main source of income for the government, transferring fully might affect the financial and decision-making capacity of the government. Therefore, I recommend partially transferring the land resource to individuals. The amount of land to be owned by individuals can be regulated by law so that a fair amount of land can be distributed to citizens''.
Please be informed that a publish as co-author an article on 31.03.2020 in the Portuguese magazine SOCIOLOGIA, PROBLEMAS E PRÁTICAS, n.º 93, 2020, pp. 9-29. DOI: 10.7458/SPP20209314043.
When I was registering and messed my e-mail and later I register again but could not find the article to claim the ownership. Now, when I tried to claim the system informed that belongs to another person that is my previous account which I could not certify.
Is it possible to fix it and make it available in my new account. The wrong one is register as fernando.bessa@gnr.pt
Thank you

I want to apply the two-step system GMM to investigate the impact of ownership concentration on the CEO pay-performance relationship with 201 firms for 5 years of balanced panel data. I have applied the command given below.

(1) I want to confirm whether the command is correct or not?
(2) Please suggest some solution to meet all the assumptions along with retaining the significance of the coefficients.
My results were not up to the mark- the p-value of the Hansen and Sargan test was less than 0.1 and sometimes very high; AR(1) and AR (2) both are insignificant. I made some changes to the command like adding collapse to the equation to reduce the number of instruments, changed the classification of some variables from endogenous to exogenous but none worked.

While not exactly new, NFTs or non fungible token have recently been making headlines because of the auctioning of NFT art on traditional auction houses. What are the legal implication of this blockchain enabled technology? Is it a security? Are there other legal implications with regards to concepts of ownership? Or is this just transferring old legal rules onto a new tech phenomena?
Can you suggest prominent books or articles about that subject, i want to learn this thing from the perspective of historical background and various regions from the world, please if you know anything about it, please write an answer to this question, thank you.
We understand that in sharing economy, access to usage will be important. How will the attitude to ownership and disposal of property change? Do you want be the owners?
Hello. I am researching the issue of property transformation in Ukraine. The example of privatization has shown that the most effective is the private owner. But is it always so? I will be grateful for the examples of your countries and other experiences.
Private ownership of central banks is not a new phenomenon that is peculiar to formerly socialist economies for the central banks of Belgium, Swiss National Bank, South Africa and Japan (55% government, public float 45%) and Greece (35% state ownership, otherwise private) all have shares that is owned by the public.
In most cases private shareholders are prevented by law to influence monetary tasks of their respective national banks and such structures will not by accepted by policy makers. In Japan for instance, despite 45% of public ownership the Government of Japan reserves the right to vote and retains 100% voting interest.
Private owndership of central banks may sound strange. Even stranger is the stock buying actions of central banks. Through buying stocks and pouring money into the market the central bank aims to keep the currency in check and avert deflationary pressures. As an examples the Bank of Japan (BOJ). The Bank was actively buying shares throughout the long post-Great Recession economic expansion, whereby making a decisive contribution to increased stock prices which would be maintained for unusually long periods of time. In April 2019 BOJ was one of the top ten investors, that held the shares of more than half of the publicly traded companies.
How would ownership structure of Central banks improve the objective of promotion of monetary and financial stability?
Would private ownership of central banks results in a more equal distribution of income?
I want to statistically model mode choice behavior ( modes: bus, train, car, other modes). My independent variables are gender(male/female), car ownership (yes/no), age (continuous), household income( continuous), travel time, travel distance, travel cost (continuous). Along with that service quality parameters: comfort, reliability, safety etc which are ordinal data collected from questionnaire survey to be included in the model. Users has been asked to rank service quality parameters to rank in an ordinal scale of 1-5.
My dependent variable in nominal and independent variables contains nominal, ordinal, continuous variables. In order to model mode choice, which statistical method should I choose: Multi-nominal logistic regression or Ordinary Logistic Regression?
TIA

Hi , I am a first-year doctoral researcher from London and currently working on research in foreign MNEs operation in Myanmar. I have been struggling to find the information in this area such as how many total foreign MNEs by sectors, countries and ownership etc.

Thanks.
I would like to know whether a study can have multiple research philosophy. I am currently studying the influence of ownership on firm performance through regression analysis. I am using case studies to understand the particular type of ownership
In last few decades it has been observing the Nation's owned properties have been handing over to private sectors. Over the next decade, privatization is likely to be at the top of the economic agenda. Critics of widespread privatization contend that private ownership does not necessarily translate into improved efficiency. More important, they argue, private sector managers may have no compunction about adopting profit-making strategies or corporate practices that make essential services unaffordable or unavailable to large segments of the population.
Hello ,
Im doing a research about the relationship between insider trades and minority rights hypothesizing that insider trades affects minority rights negatively. Also, Im hypothesizing that institutional ownership acts as a mediator in the relationship.
Im confused about the measures and regression equations to be used in measuring these three variables: Insider trades, minority rights, and institutional ownership.
Any recommendations and suggestions...
Thanks in Advance
Hey there everyone,
I am facing some trouble with the data of my master thesis.
I am investigating between the % of family ownership in family firms and the acquisition stake (also in %). Therefore, I planned to use a Tobit model. However, after finishing my data collection, I end up with a dataset that consists in 319 out of 396 cases of 100 % acquisitions. So only a minority of cases has some variance. I also put a chart with the distribution in the annex of this post.
So in my understanding, this is an extreme case of left skewed-data (mode>median). So, my question is whether there is a model that is suited to analyze such an extreme case and additionally, whether the results I will get are likely to be useless from the start. In a later stage of my thesis, I would also like to investigate about possible moderating effects. Is it foreseeable at this point in time whether this will be possible at all?
I am aware that a common solution to deal with skewed data is the log. However, in my understanding, this will not help in this case.
I hope I made my problem clear. I am glad for any help since I am not sure how to proceed at this point.
Thank you for your comments and stay healthy in these days!

In my investigation of the triangular relationship between international sales, international ownership and the riskiness of a stock I am looking for a database that could provide the % of foreign ownership of shares from DAX and MDAX companies between 2003-2019.
A recent study in Pakistan has proved that the integration of various sectors i.e. organizational development, health and disaster management does accelerate the pace of strengthening community resilience (https://www.henrystewartpublications.com/jbcep/v11). The results show that the following initial benefits of sectoral integration could be achieved:
• less fatigue/time-consuming for communities;
• optimum utilisation of resources;
• minimum human resources for maximum outputs;
• cost sharing;
• community involvement;
• easy planning;
• harmonisation of various tools;
• shared ownership;
• cost effective;
• impact-oriented;
• avoids duplication of resources;
• sustainable in terms of local management, ownership and adoption by local communities;
• addresses root causes of vulnerabilities associated with all sectors, and many more.
I have the following queries:
1. Are there any similar findings of sectoral integration in other countries or regions?
2. If yes, why do we need to implement sectoral programs in standalone for strengthening community resilience?
The Investment Redistributive Incentive Model (IRIM).
Tourism holds the hopes of many in creating job opportunities for the masses of the unemployed globally. The poor growth of economies has failed to address the problems of unemployment, poverty and inequality. For growth to be impactful, foreign direct investment is considered one of the sources of the required impetuses. It is possible to incentivize both foreign (direct) and local investments. This paper, which was prepared using secondary sources of information, argues that it is possible to introduce incentives linked to investments in what is posited as the Investment Redistributive Incentive Model (IRIM). The IRIM rewards companies that support local ownership and control of enterprises through an incentive system en route to total liberation/local control of enterprises in whole geographic areas as the ultimate goal. The IRIM uses investment incentives such as tax cuts, breaks or relief as redistributive instruments to effect change through the reconfiguration of the management and ownership structures of companies. IRIM could be applied in any company, large or small, for equity and social justice. Foreign investors could also be linked to educational institutions in relation to facilitating the supply of skilled workers. Redistributive formulas become imperative to avert the various forms of societal dissonance because current trajectories are not sustainable where only a few get rich while the majority remain poor in a world trapped in a capitalistic and narcissistic modus operandi.

Hi everyone,
I'm currently conducting a project which focusing on a food industry that adopts Lean & Six Sigma initiatives which mainly to increase productivity and to reduce costs and inventory. Unfortunately, nowadays, the supplier management has got very important role to play in making the products and services being offered to be more competitive. Most of the manufacturers are highly depending upon the suppliers to focus on the core competencies as well as to derive the sustainable competitive advantages. However, while the manufacturers are becoming increasingly less vertically integrated, the control over the total cost of ownership appears to be lost.

Paper reviews can lead to interesting discussions with details sometimes not included in the revision. Also, it allows a discussion/Q&A format not possible with formal papers, making it more interactive for the reader. What is your opinion on publishing the responses? I imagine there could be issues if the reviewers don't agree... what to do if they are anonymous? Or is the discussion ownership solely to the journal?
The model is something like this:
CSR = α0+α1 EQ + β1 family_owner + β2 EQ*family_owner +
control [β3 B_SIZE + β4 NEDS + β5 SIZE +β6 GROWTH + β7 MB +β8 LEV +β9 ROA + INDUSTRY DUMMY +YEAR DUMMY]
CSR: corporate social responsibility
EQ: earnings quality
managerial_owner: managerial ownership
family_owner: family ownership
I use interaction between EQ * family_owner to test the moderating effect of family ownership of the CSR-EQ relationship.
So, is it applicable to I translate that into SEM using Mplus or Stata and if yes how? for example, path analysis to show all the direct and indirect relationships on the diagram.
I have no latent variables
Any recommendation or help is highly appreciated
Hi,
I wished to know that from where can I get information on the BSE 500 listed firms about their type of ownership i.e. whether a particular firm is government owned or private owned?
TIA!
Any student who is beginning to learn depreciation will be told that land is not depreciated, however this common position which tend to hold in many jurisdictions may not be applicable in Ghana because in Ghana ownership of land is time bound.
Depreciation is defined in IAS 16 as being the systematic allocation of the depreciable amount of an asset over its useful life. In other words,depreciation applies the accruals concept to the capitalised cost of a non-current asset and matches this cost to the period that it relates to.
The depreciable amount is the cost of the assets less it scrap value. The main justification for land to be excluded from depreciation is that land has infinite useful life and hence impossible to calculate it depreciation rate.
Land is not exempted from depreciation because the value keep on increasing, because most assets are included in depreciation despite the fact that they have the character of continuous appreciation of it values. In the other words noncurrent assets is not depreciated because of the reduction of its value as a result of it continue use but rather the allocation of its depreciable amount over the assets useful life. This stand to show that for an asset to qualify for depreciation it should have a measurable useful life and a measurable depreciable amount.
The only thing that disqualify land from been depreciated according to IAS 16 is that its useful life is infinite or in the other words the useful life of land is not measurable. The other leg of the two qualifying parameters which is a measurable depreciable amount land qualifies because the depreciable amount of land can reliably be measured.
In Ghana all lands are sold leasehold as oppose to freehold this show that an individual or an entity cannot purchase a land for ever. As a Ghanaian when you buy land your ownership of the land is limited to 99 years whiles in the case of a foreigner it is limited to 50 years after this the ownership is reverted to the original owner.
There has been an argument that looking at the high number of useful life attributable to a leasehold land in Ghana that is 50 and 99 years respectively and the depreciable amount the value of the calculated depreciation may not be material, however materiality is subjective and may be determine by the size of the entity involve and hence we should allow the individual entities to determine whether the calculated value is material or not.
This clearly allow freehold land to qualify for the first leg of the qualifying parameter which is a measurable useful life which in this case is either 50 years or 99 years respectively. This therefore qualify a leasehold land to be depreciate in accordance to the IAS 16.

I am conducting research on "Key Factors Associated to Earnings Management Practice in Bangladesh." I have both independent and dependent variable in 5 point likert scale type (strongly disagree 1, disagree 2, neither disagree nor agree 3, agree 4 and strongly agree 5). Sample size = 100.
Reliability Statistics
Cronbach's Alpha .813
Regression Model
Y= α + b1x1+b2x2+ b3x3+ b4x4+ b5x5+b6x6+ε
Where,
Dependent Variable:
Y = Earnings Management practice
Independent Variables:
x1 = Maintenance of favorable stock prices.
x2 = High investors' desire as far as high gainfulness.
x3 = Poor financial performance.
x4 = Management motivating forces in view of organization performance.
x5 = Deliberate ownership of the organization's shares by management.
x6 = Projection of maintainability.
What kind of regression method is helpful in order to find the significant effect of predictor variables on dependent variable?
Thank you.
I'm looking for research papers or analyses regarding the "inverse privacy" concept and new data ownership models
I am trying to answer this question in a conference paper that will be presented in May 2019 at the 15th World Conference on Transport Research. Happy to discuss about the subject, and also on the specific draft. I can share on the basis of private requests, and to get constructive feedback.

Conference Paper Does income inequality matter for household transport expend...
ABSTRACT: Household expenditure is a point of reference to discuss fundamental social issues of affordability and basic needs in fields such as food, health, housing, energy, and of course transport. Whereas the Engel's Law has long ago predicted a regular drop in relative importance of food as GDP per capita grows, countries show a higher dispersion when it comes to the relevance of other household expenditure items, such as transport. Economic growth and other factors such as urbanization, car ownership and ageing of the population have been usually included as country-level variables that can explain this dispersion. However, income distribution has been scarcely considered. This paper uses recently published panel data on income shares of the top richest percentiles of the population to understand the link between income inequality and household transport expenditure in rich countries. Evidence and a theoretical discussion are provided in regard to the significance and different signs of the link between income distribution and household expenditure on purchase of private vehicles, operation of personal transport equipment, and transport services. Although many determinants of household transport expenditure are expected to be defined at a regional or city level, models using country-level variables can explain up to 61 per cent of the variance of items such as operation of private vehicles. The paper ends discussing these findings and providing theoretical interpretations, aiming to include income inequality as a relevant variable in future research on household transport expenditure.
Hello,
This is for my first research project, and i am not sure how to interpret the moderation effect. My IV is "the quality og legal institutions", DV is " ownership of parents comapny in Joint Venture", my moderator is " Government Transparency".
The coeefficient indicates significant number for the IV and also moderator.

Probably the most visible application of blockchains right now isthe virtual currency Bitcoin – which has often hit the news for rapid gains in value – but in fact there are over 2,000 other tokens and currencies based on distributed, cryptographical technology.
Collectively they are known as cryptocoins or cryptocurrency, and each one claims to fill a role or solve a problem in some way, better than other solutions which have come before it. The unifying factor among them all is the concept of blockchain, and its ability to establish identity and ownership, record transactions and enforce “smart contracts”.
Over the past decade the financial services industry has been disrupted by a range of new technologies. This has included the launch of new, private, digital currencies such as Bitcoin. In this environment, central banks are considering how they can take advantage of these new technologies to help deliver their core functions.

Hello,
what are your opinions and experiences working with non-open data of commercial use for research projects? I believe, it works good on certain case study basis as mutual cooperation, but any examples for long term cooperation? Is that always case of paying annual fees to get the data for long-term research? Best regards,
Andris
I would like to start a discussion on possible theoretical approaches that could be used in developing a study on how several practices of employee profit sharing with can increase several organizational outcomes in small companies, such as productivity, innovation, OCBs, psychological ownership, and ethical performance. I am particularly interested in using mixed-methods and conducting in the future the study in small family-based organizations, located in emerging countries.
An important element would be the role of several mediating variables, such as authentic leadership, ethical leadership or spiritual leadership.
I consider that a possibility would be to approach this study as a transformational transdiscplinary investigation project, more than a post-hoc study case approach, where the participants would be accompanied through the process and try to learn and reflect with them.
If anyone is interested in participating, I am also looking for potential collaborators. I am a scholar on organizational leadership.
In this title I'm going to use NSFR, LCR and Ownership variable as major variables.
Dear Research Gate community,
I am looking for capital structure data of listed firms in Bloomberg dataset. I could find data on SBF120 index but cannot get access to all firms’ information, probably because of my awkward use of Bloomberg. Any help/advice could be valuable.
Best regards
