WORKPLACE MENTAL HEALTH AND JOB PERFORMANCE OF OIL SERVICING FIRMS IN PORT HARCOURT

Aomreore, Thelma Chinazor — 2023-09-10

The objective of this paper is to investigate workplace mental health and job performance of oil servicing firms in Port Harcourt. The study adopted a cross sectional research approach, which is a form of the quasi experimental research design in testing the relationship between the variables under study. Spearman Rank Correlation Coefficient and partial correlation were used in testing the hypotheses. The study shows a positive relationship between job performance and staff mental health in oil servicing firms. The relationship between employee mental health and job performance has been one of the key concerns in workplace. However, extant studies suffer from incomplete results due to their focus on developed economies’ contexts and the unclear path of employee mental health’s impact on performance. In this paper, we investigate the mechanism of employee mental health influencing job performance. We use the data of oil servicing firms in Port Harcourt to test these hypotheses. Drawing on a sample of 10 firms from Port Harcourt, we find that employee mental health positively impacts job performance, and such relationship is mediated by innovative behavior and work engagement. The findings not only enrich the discipline’s knowledge on mental health in an emerging economy setting but also extend the implications of mental health, innovative behavior, and work engagement to job performance.

THE UNITED STATES POSITION ON THE POLITICAL SYSTEMS IN UGANDA (1962-1980)

Hawraa Razzaq Hassan — 2023-09-12

Following the policy followed and the personalities of Milton Obote and Yedi Amin in Uganda are different, and thus created differently on the relations between Uganda and the origins of the United States, where Obote's attitude towards the cold west was recorded after participating in relying on independence, understanding the acceptances of colonial oppression, so he did not show interest in participating in relations With the United States, control of President Amin Amin is unacceptable and unhelpful for predicting a relationship. It is difficult for Uganda to function satisfactorily in the international system, and it is this behavior that remains difficult for the United States except to maintain an embassy in Kampala.

HUMAN CAPITAL INVESTMENT AND FIRM VALUE OF QUOTED MANUFACTURING COMPANIES IN NIGERIA

Doghudje, Ufuoma Sylvia — 2023-09-14

This study aim to explore the relationship between human capital investment and stock prices of manufacturing firms in Nigeria, focusing on the period from 2010 to 2019. Human capital investment was taken as a summation of the expenditures on health, training, and remuneration, while stock prices serve as the dependent variable. The study employs panel data from 30 quoted manufacturing companies and utilizes an ex-post facto research design. The study adopts a panel regression model, specifying that stock price is a function of human capital investment. The model is mathematically represented and tested using the Augmented Dickey-Fuller Unit Root Test for stationarity and hypothesis testing for significance. The study relies on a sample of 30 manufacturing companies, selected using a convenience sample size determined by data availability. The Augmented Dickey-Fuller test established that both variables were stationary, making them apt for panel regression analysis. However, the results of hypothesis testing indicated that there is no statistically significant relationship between human capital investment and stock prices for the sampled companies. The calculated t-statistic (0.1313) and p-value (0.8956) failed to meet the criteria for rejecting the null hypothesis. The findings challenge traditional accounting practices that assume a direct, positive relationship between human capital investment and stock prices. This calls for a reevaluation of how such expenditures are reported and how their return on investment is calculated. Contrary to widely held beliefs and existing literature, the study reveals that human capital investments, specifically in health, training, and remuneration, do not significantly impact the stock prices of manufacturing firms in Nigeria for the period under investigation. This insight necessitates a rethinking of the paradigms surrounding human capital investments and their influence on firm value, particularly in a developing economy like Nigeria.

TO STUDY SALARY COMPENSATION FOR ACADEMICIAN IN EDUCATION INDUSTRY BENCHMARK COMPARISON WITHIN MALAYSIAN EMPLOYMENT MARKET

Dr Yeoh Wee Win — 2023-09-15

The research is aimed to explore the case study of salary for academician in education industry in comparison towards the benchmark within the overall job employment market in Malaysia. With the rising trend of the business, the job market had been increasing competitive within the employment market. Based on initial understandings, there are multiple suggestion that the compensation package for academicians appear to be less attractive against the compensation from other industries in a non-academician role for the job. With this, the designation of the quantitative study had addressed the comparative analysis using the salary guide to demonstrate the historical salary trend for education industry for the academicians against the accounting and finance related roles in four different industries namely, manufacturing, IT, retail and healthcare. The outcome through the findings had provide solid evidence where the results suggested that IT industry provide the highest compensation package to the individuals where the education industry for academicians appear to be setting lower average against the benchmark agreeing with the initial expectations for the study. The outcome of the study will provide significant drive to understand the needs for the education industry to further develop the revision on the salary compensation package for the academicians to improve the retention of the talents and skills for the teaching force in educational institutions in Malaysia.

Eshqurbonova Aziza Bozor qizi — 2023-09-17

This article discusses the significance of dialectisms in enhancing the artistic and folkloric qualities of literary works. Various types of dialect-specific units, including phonetic, lexical, and grammatical dialectisms, are analyzed through dialogic texts. It is explored that in literary works, the pragmatic features of characters' speech are also influenced by dialect-specific lexicon, considered one of the fundamental linguistic units that reveal the relationships between interlocutors, serving as a means of speech individualization for characters and unveiling their internal, spiritual characteristics.

GENERALIZATION OF THE HUA LO-KEN FORMULA IN THE MATRIX POLYHEDRON

Yusupbayeva Hilola Ergashbek daughter — 2023-09-17

Integral formulas generalizing the Cauchy integral formula in the theory of functions of one complex variable serve as an important constructive tool. Local residues of many complex variables and integral formulas in multivariate complex analysis serve as a basis in the problems of connecting the values of a function within a domain with the boundary of the domain or with a part of the boundary. Therefore, the study of integral formulas and residues of many variables in function theory plays an important role and is considered one of the topical trends in modern mathematics.

BASICS OF DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS

Kazakova Madina Allayar qizi — 2023-09-24

Calculus is the mathematics of change, and rates of change are expressed by derivatives. Thus, one of the most common ways to use calculus is to set up an equation containing an unknown function y=f(x) and its derivative, known as a differential equation. Solving such equations often provides information about how quantities change and frequently provides insight into how and why the changes occur. Techniques for solving differential equations can take many different forms, including direct solution, use of graphs, or computer calculations. We introduce the main ideas in this chapter and describe them in a little more detail later in the course. In this section we study what differential equations are, how to verify their solutions, some methods that are used for solving them, and some examples of common and useful equations.
