The Impact of Website Design on Online Customer Buying Satisfaction and Loyalty to E-Tailers: An Exploratory Study of E-Tailers in India
subject: Adoption; Customer satisfaction; E-commerce; Loyalty; Website design
description: The popularity of e-tailers has distorted the retail industry in India. Websites are becoming an important means through which customers get product information and purchase items for their needs. This research paper focuses on four dimensions (i.e., user interface, convenience, personalized recommendations, and perceived security of the website) to assess their impact on online customer satisfaction with and loyalty towards e-tailers. The study questionnaire used established measures. The data was collected from four large cities in India, namely Chennai, Mumbai, Kolkata, and Delhi. Analysis of the survey results suggests that perceived website security is the most important dimension for customer loyalty. E-tailers have to ensure adequate security provisions in their websites to build up consumer perceptions of trust and so repeat business loyalty. Copyright 2022, IGI Global.

The Impact of Workforce Diversity on Organizational Climate in the Banking Industry
subject: Commerce
description: Liberalization, privatization, and globalization have paved the way to open the economy and integrate new philosophies and ideologies into the organization. The banking organization and other MNCs had opted for the ethos of enhancing the diversity of working professionals with the adoption of LPG. The novel approach to workforce diversity and organizational climate in the banking industry is considered in this study. The relevance of workforce diversity and the formation of an organizational climate are emphasized in this research work. The study's goal was reached through a series of steps, such as reviewing relevant literature and creating an appropriate theoretical framework. These steps laid the groundwork for creating and finalising research tools, which were done with the help of experts in the field. The creation of instruments for evaluating diversity and organizational climate was the final phase in this process. The study was carried out by using stratified sampling method with the participation of 778 bank employees from public and private banks located in the geographical area of Bangalore. The study's outcome states that There is no significant relationship between workforce diversity and organizational climate in the banking industry is rejected; this can be interpreted as the better organizational climate is highly correlated with the employees attitude towards organizational diversity.

The Impactful Role of ML Algo in the Field of Enactment Nostrum: An Intensive/Deep Review
subject: Machine Learning; Machine Translation; Natural Language Processing; Support Vector Machines; Translation medicine
description: Machine translation (MT) research has explored a variety of models, including statistical machine translation (SMT), rule-based machine translation (RBMT), and hybrid approaches. Hybrid MT systems aim to improve translation quality by using the strengths of different models. However, the complex set of functions associated with MT systems is still difficult to understand and optimize. This instant study propose an approach based on ML with respect to hybrid MT that addresses these issues by automatically interpreting and weighting features using ML tools. This research framework includes a classification approach to classify and compare translations from multiple black-box A system that uses ML classifiers trained on feature vectors derived from natural language processing tools. This study presents a method to train and use an SVM-based classifier to generate hybrid interpretations. The test results for English-Chinese pairs show the potential of this research approach to improve translation quality. The proposed framework is a simple and efficient way to combine different MT systems, improving translation results without manual intervention. 2024 IEEE.

The Importance of Corporate Social Responsibility in Social Value Creation
subject: Community-based convergent model of CSR; Corporate social responsibility; COVID-19; Public health; Social value
description: The fundamental idea behind CSR is that corporations have duties that go beyond lawful execution of their economic duties (Steiner & Steiner, 2009). The waning hold of states over powerful transnational corporations and the increasing recognition of the potential of corporations to contribute to the welfare needs underline the importance of CSR in contemporary society. It is believed that a good CSR strategy would lead to significant reductions in business risks, including stakeholder, regulatory or marketplace sanctions. India being the first country to make CSR mandatory recognizes the potential of firms to synergize with the state in achieving larger developmental causes. This chapter is an attempt to review the CSR contributions toward public health during COVID-19. This chapter analyses the ways in which corporate social responsibility could contribute toward value creation in society and proposes a community-based convergent model of CSR implementation. 2024 by World Scientific Publishing Co.

The Importance of Digital Literacy in Early Childhood Education
description: Digital literacy in early childhood education equips children with essential skills for learning, communication, and problem solving in a connected world. From tablets to interactive whiteboards, guided experiences help young learners navigate digital tools safely and ethically. Early exposure supports literacy development by offering multimedia stories, phonics apps, and collaborative games that reinforce memory and attention. Importantly, teachers integrate digital literacy with social-emotional learning, teaching young children how to share, take turns, and manage screen time. Families engaged in this work create consistent routines that bridge home and school, reinforcing concepts like searching for information, evaluating sources, and respecting others online. By embedding digital literacy in play and inquiry, schools prepare students for future classrooms, careers, and civic participation, while safeguarding well-being and creativity. This foundation supports lifelong learning, adaptability, and responsible innovation. Copyright 2026, IGI Global Scientific Publishing.

The Importance of Oceans in Achieving Global Sustainability
description: Oceans regulate climate, support fisheries, and drive trade, yet they face pressures from pollution, warming, and overexploitation. Their vast ecosystems absorb carbon, stabilize weather, and provide habitats for countless species. Healthy seas underpin food security by supporting billions of people who rely on seafood for protein and livelihoods. Coral reefs, mangroves, and seagrasses buffer coastlines, protecting communities from storms and erosion while sustaining tourism and recreation. Ocean governance, science- based management, and regional cooperation are essential to curb illegal harvesting, reduce bycatch, and improve marine protected areas. Transitioning to sustainable fisheries, clean energy, and circular waste systems can relieve stress on marine habitats. Restoring coastal habitats enhances biodiversity, supports nutrient cycles, and sequesters carbon. Public awareness, equitable access to resources, and inclusive decision- making turn scientific insight into practical, long- term benefits for all nations. 2026, IGI Global Scientific Publishing.

The importance of servicescapes in Maldivian higher education: application of the stimuli-organism-response(SOR) framework
subject: Academic learning environments; Classroom; Eduscape; Higher education; Servicescape; Students behaviour
description: Purpose: This study aims to use the servicescape model of higher education environments to measure the students perceptions of the learning environment (classroom) and the effect this has on students learning ability. Design/methodology/approach: The present study follows the stimulus-organism-response paradigm framework. A self-administered and well-structured survey questionnaire is used to collect data. The snowball sampling technique is used to collect samples of 403 students belonging to Maldivian higher education institutions. Findings: Findings show that the physical appearances of these higher education institutions greatly influenced the pleasure dimension. Furthermore, pleasure is found to have a significant and positive relationship with the approach behaviour and engagement/involvement of the students. Originality/value: The main contribution of the study is that it successfully tests the Eduscape model adopted from the servicescape model, and thus helps to extend existing knowledge on the critical elements in the Maldivian higher education learning environments and students behaviour within them. The findings have implications for higher education institutions to improve their learning environments and better engage with their students. 2021, Emerald Publishing Limited.

The Indian Pulsar Timing Array data release 2: I. Dataset and timing analysis
subject: astronomy data analysis; Gravitational wave astronomy; millisecond pulsars; pulsar timing method; radio astronomy; Radio telescopes
description: The Indian Pulsar Timing Array (InPTA) employs unique features of the upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (uGMRT) to monitor dozens of the International Pulsar Timing Array (IPTA) millisecond pulsars (MSPs), simultaneously in the 300500 MHz and the 12601460 MHz bands. This dual-band approach ensures that any frequency-dependent delays are accurately characterised, significantly improving the timing precision for pulsar observations, which is crucial for pulsar timing arrays. We present details of InPTAs second data release that involves 7 yr of data on 27 IPTA MSPs. This includes sub-banded times of arrival (ToAs), dispersion measures (DM), and initial timing ephemerides for our MSPs. A part of this dataset, originally released in InPTAs first data release, is being incorporated into IPTAs third data release, which is expected to detect and characterise nanohertz gravitational waves (GWs) in the coming years. The entire dataset is reprocessed in this second data release providing some of the highest precision DM estimates so far and interesting solar wind-related DM variations in some pulsars. This is likely to characterise the noise introduced by the dynamic inter-stellar ionised medium much better than the previous release thereby increasing sensitivity to any future GW search.

The indian pulsar timing array data release 2: II. Customised single-pulsar noise analysis and noise budget
subject: Gravitational waves; Neutron stars; Pulsar timing arrays; Pulsars
description: We present the results of customised single-pulsar noise analysis of 27 millisecond pulsars from the second data release of the Indian Pulsar Timing Array (InPTA-DR2). We model various stochastic noise sources present in the dataset using stationary Gaussian processes and estimate the noise budget of the InPTA-DR2 using Bayesian inference, involving model selection, Fourier harmonics selection, and parameter estimation for each pulsar. We check the efficacy of our noise characterisation by performing the Anderson-Darling test for Gaussianity on the noise-subtracted residuals. We find that all 11 pulsars with time baseline ? 2.5 yr show Gaussian residuals and do not have evidence for any red noise process in the optimal model, except for PSR J1944 + 0907, which shows presence of DM noise. PSRs J0437 - 4715, J1909 - 3744 and J1939 + 2134 show preference for the most complicated noise model, having achromatic and chromatic red noise processes. Only 4 out of 15 pulsars with time baseline ? 2.5 yr show significant non-Gaussianity in noise-subtracted residuals. We suspect that this may require more advanced methods to model noise processes properly. A comparative study of six pulsars with data removed near solar conjunctions showed deviations from the parameter estimates obtained with the original dataset, indicating potential bias in red noise processes due to unmodeled solar-wind effects. The results presented in this work remain broadly consistent with the InPTA-DR1 noise budget, with better constraints obtained on noise processes for several pulsars and support for achromatic red noise in PSR J1012 + 5307 due to the extended time baseline. 2026 The Author(s).

The Influence of Alloying Constituent Fe on Mechanical Properties of NiTi Based Shape Memory Alloys
subject: Martensite Transformation; Mechanical Properties; Microstructure; Shape Memory Alloy; TiNiFe
description: The influences of Fe-addition on phase transformation behavior, mechanical properties and microstructure of Ti50Ni50-xFex alloys were investigated by means of optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Results indicate that, as a substitute for Ni, Fe added to TiNi alloys can dramatically decrease the martensite transformation temperature and R phase transformation and martensite transformation are accordingly separated. The results show that TiNiFe alloys exhibit two-step martensitic transformation. The start temperature of martensitic transformation increases sharply from 212 K to 267 K when 2% Fe is added in, and then decreases gradually if Fe content further increases. The hardness of TiNiFe ternary alloys before heat treatment is constant for up to 6% of the composition and suddenly increases for 9% composition and also it behaves same for heat treated specimens because of formation of equilibrium precipitates Ni3Ti formation. 2017 Elsevier Ltd.

The Influence of Cartoons Soundscape Irrelevant Sound Effects on young children's Auditory Processing and Working memory skills
description: Background: Irrelevant sound or speech effect (ISE) affects an individual's serial recall task of visual and auditory presentations. Cartoon soundscape mimics irrelevant sound effect hypothesis. A constant and repeated exposure to cartoons in early childhood should influence children's auditory learning or recall performance. Purpose: To investigate the effects of cartoons' soundscape irrelevant sound effects on young children's auditory processing and working memory skills. Research Design: A cross-sectional study was used to observe the influence of the cartoon soundscape irrelevant sound effects on children. Study sample: Sixty young children with normal hearing in the age range 5-6years were exposed to cartoons (Indian plus Non-Indian) considered for the study. Data Collection and analysis: Pitch Pattern Test (PPT), Duration Pattern Test (DPT), and Corsi-Block working memory apparatus were applied to the participants exposed to cartoons. The data obtained were compared statistically in terms of the groups' performances. Results: There was a significant difference in PPT (p=.023) and DPT (p=.001) between the cartoon exposed and non-exposed groups. In contrast, there was no significant difference between the two groups in Corsi-Block working memory(p>0.05). Conclusion: Cartoon soundscape irrelevant sound or speech affects young children's auditory processing skills. The visual-spatial recall follows a different developmental pattern in young children without recoding to phonological aspects. It is predicted that our study findings might help determine the ill effects of cartoons on the auditory and language development process. 2022 American Academy of Audiology. All rights reserved.

description: Green marketing decisively helps businesses distinguish themselves from their competition, strengthen their image, and obtain the attention of consumers who increasingly prefer environmentally conscious businesses.
