Abstract
|

Statistical Consulting is unarguably one of the most challenging and rewarding aspects of statistics. It is
both an art and a science because it involves both statistical and non-statistical skills. This article considers
the usefulness of statistics, importance of statistical consulting and stresses the need to improve the practice
of statistical consulting among young statisticians in Africa by including it in the curriculum of statistics
programs in all African Universities and institutions of higher learning... |

Abstract
|

Human capital is an important factor used in converting all resources to mankinds use and
benefit. Economists observed that the development and utilization of human capital is important in
a nations economic growth. However, the illiteracy rate in Nigeria is high and many workers are
unskilled, leading to their low productivity; hence, this study shows the relevance of human
capital development to the growth of the economy. It evaluates human capital development and
economic growth in Nigeria by adopting conceptual analytical framework that employs the
theoretical and ordinary least square (OLS) to analyze the relationship using the GDP as proxy for
economic growth; total government expenditure on education and health, and the enrolment
pattern of tertiary, secondary and primary schools as proxy for human capital... |

Abstract

This paper critically examines Frederick Herzbergs two-factor theory and assesses its application and
relevance in understanding the essential factors that motivate the Ghanaian worker. The two-factor theory
of motivation explains the factors that employees find satisfying and dissatisfying about their jobs. These
factors are the hygiene factors and motivators. The hygiene factors when absent can lead to dissatisfaction
in the work place but when fully catered for in the work environment on their own are not sufficient to
satisfy workers whereas the motivators referring to the nature of the job, provide satisfaction and lead to
higher motivation... |

Abstract
|

Job involvement was considered very important in the previous literature for increasing the performance of
the employees. It is hypothesized that involved employees exert considerable efforts for achieving the goals
and objectives of the organization. These kinds of employees are highly productive and produce better
results as compare to the employees who are not involved with their job. These employees work for the
organization with their hand, head and heart. Several studies examined the relationship of job involvement
with employee performance and claimed that there is a positive relationship between these two variables... |

Abstract
|
| |
The recent global financial crisis calls for a need to adopt a more interdisciplinary approach to the study of
economics and finance by focussing also on the individual and social psychology that drives the actions of
market participants. Behavioural finance offers such a perspective by drawing on the fields of psychology
and the other social sciences to explain how investors are led to make less than rational investment
decisions and how these could aggregate to less than rational market outcomes, like periods of excessive
investor euphoria preceding a financial crisis... |

This study investigates the direction of the causal relationship between stock prices and macroeconomic
aggregates in Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE). By applying the techniques of unit-root tests, cointegration
and the long-run Granger causality test proposed by Toda and Yamamoto (1995), we test the causal
relationships between the DSE Stock Index and the thirteen macroeconomic variables, viz., consumer price
index, deposit interest rate, foreign exchange rate, export payment, gross domestic product, investment,
industrial production index, lending interest rate, broad money supply, national income deflator, foreign
remittances and total domestic credit using monthly data for the period 1987 to 2010... |

This paper stresses the importance of queueing theory to the problem of port congestion in order to enhance
sustainable development of Nigeria ports. Nigeria Ports are characterized with incessant congestion
problem in the recent past. This has resulted in diversion of ships scheduled for Nigeria Ports to other
neighbouring country ports which has caused the country to lose a lot of revenue. The effectiveness of a
Port is contingent upon loading and unloading of ships... |
