Title A name given to the resource Forensic accounting: A novel paradigm and relevant knowledge in fraud detection and prevention Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Stephen Owusu Afriyie, Michael Owusu Akomeah, Gertrude Amoakohene, Benjamin Chris Ampimah, Chosniel Elikem Ocloo, Michael Owusu Kyei Description An account of the resource Forensic accounting is a new trend that goes beyond normal audit approaches and procedures for fraud identification. The practice applies reliable principles and methods to obtain sufficient facts or data that provide basis for prosecution in the law court. Forensic accountants characteristically need adequate know-how and skills for investigation and proactive audit to control fraud. With globalization of the economy, fraudsters can be found in any organization. These criminals take advantage of loopholes such as suspicious financial statement, defective internal controls, and poor corporate governance. Hence, there is a great need for skilled forensic accountants to detect, prevent and expose the weak system. The professionals can exercise their mandate by reporting the obvious cases of fraud committed to a law court for prosecution.

Dissecting Public Policy Making in Africa: Theoretica, Analytical, and Methodological Perspectives … Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Emelia Amoako-Asiedu, Frank Ohemeng, Theresa Obuobisa-Darko, Mr Kenneth Parku Description An account of the resource The role of traditional leaders (chiefs) in national development in Africa continues to generate significant debate among academics, especially those in the political science, anthropology, and economics literature. Chiefs are seen as local developers, as well as democratic brokers, but not as policy brokers, and thus minimizing their role in the national policy making process. The chiefs' potentially constructive role in national development, is facilitating local development projects, and influencing public policies for national development. We challenge the idea that chiefs are local development and democratic brokers, but rather they serve as policy brokers, ensuring that policies that impact national development are developed by government for the betterment of citizens. We, aslo argue that chiefs continue to play an important role in the process of good governance by serving as policy brokers and this role needs to critically highlighted in the public policy literature. We attempt to answer these questions how effective have traditional rulers (Chiefs) been in their role as policy brokers in Ghana? What specific roles have chiefs played as brokers in the governance and how successful have they been? Using the desktop research approach, it was identified that these traditional leaders are considered as severing as policy brokers in their roles as effecting cultural change, resolving conflict, brokering development projects settling disputes on land, acting as intermediaries and expressing their legitimacy as well as democratic and policy brokers in their significant role in the national policy making process. The paper contributes to the discussion of the role … Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=FrXAX-kAAAAJ&cstart=20&pagesize=80&citation_for_view=FrXAX-kAAAAJ:OU6Ihb5iCvQC Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/9df47112b07f86e181eea6e69bfc8afb.pdf 9b61f24ff43084e7d42a8c8ced5c05b3 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Responsible Leadership and Satisfaction Among Working Mothers in Ghana: The Mediating Role of Work-Life Balance Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Richard Brenyah, Theresa Obuobisa-Darko, Moro Alhassan, Edward Tetteh Description An account of the resource The study investigates the relationship between responsible leadership and satisfaction, and how work-life balance mediates the relationship. From the literature, it was established that responsible leaders are likely to balance the work and life roles of their employees and this gives employees an opportunity to develop their potentials toward organizational success. Based on this, six hypotheses were formulated, and a conceptual model constructed. Data was collected from a sample of 402 working mothers in selected public sector organizations in Ghana. The Structural Equation Model (SEM) was used to analyze the data. Results indicate that responsible leadership influences job satisfaction both directly and indirectly. However, with respect to family satisfaction, responsible leadership affects it only through the mediation of work-life balance. The study underscores the importance of work-life balance in promoting both job and family satisfaction. Literature agrees that individuals who derive satisfaction both in their family and job domains are more likely to develop their potentials to achieve their own developmental needs. The paper therefore establishes the importance for leaders to incorporate appropriate work-life balance policies into their responsible leadership framework, develop and implement appropriate programs to equip the leaders to be effective.

Title A name given to the resource Examining Mobile Shopping Characteristics, Shopping Value and Continuous Use Intention Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Robert Ebo Hinson Description An account of the resource The present study examines the relationships among convenience factors, trust, self-efficacy, shopping value, customer satisfaction (CS), and continuous use intention (CUI) in the context of consumer behaviour within mobile shopping environments. Using a sample size of 457 respondents, structural equation modelling was employed to test the proposed hypotheses. Results revealed significant positive relationships between AC, PC, and SC with shopping value (SPV). In contrast, EV and PPC showed insignificant relationships with SPV. Trust (TST) exhibited a significant positive association with SPV, while ease of use (EOU) demonstrated an insignificant relationship. Self-efficacy (SE) also displayed a significant positive impact on SPV. Moreover, SPV positively influenced both CS and CUI. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the factors driving consumer behaviour in mobile shopping contexts, emphasizing the critical roles of convenience, trust, and self-efficacy in shaping shopping value, customer satisfaction, and continuous use intention.
