Title A name given to the resource Unlocking the COP28 climate agenda in G10 economies: Do environmental taxes and environmentally-related technologies matter in the natural resource-load capacity factor connection? Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Mohammed Musah, Isaac Ahakwa, Simplice A Asongu, Michael Owusu-Akomeah, George Oppong Appiagyei Ampong Description An account of the resource This study examines the role of environmental taxes and environmentally-related technologies in the link between natural resources and load capacity factor in G10 nations over the period 1994 to 2019. Using robust econometric techniques, the study reveals that natural resources damage environmental quality by mitigating the nations’ load capacity factor while environmental taxes and environmentally-related technologies promote sustainable environment by increasing load capacity factor. The relevance of environmental taxes and environmentally-related technologies in moderating the effect of natural resources on environmental quality is dampened by extant average levels of natural resources rents which are negative. Policy implications are discussed.

Title A name given to the resource Public procurement in teaching hospitals in Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Kofi Mintah Oware, Solomon Samanhyia, George Oppong Appiagyei Ampong Description An account of the resource This study assessed management-supplier relationship practices, benefits and challenges in public procurement of the teaching hospitals in Ghana. Using a purposive non-probability sampling approach, Komfo Anokye teaching hospital was chosen. A survey questionnaire was the main data collection technique and sample size of 55 respondents from both management of the hospital and suppliers to the hospital were chosen. Relative importance index was used to analyse data converted into a Likert scale format and the study showed that suppliers are not involved early in their procurement process, suppliers put less value on the Procurement Act that regulates procurement in Ghana and meeting product specification was also identified as a challenge. Recommendations include involvement of potential suppliers in the early stage of the procurement processes and also develop long term relationship with Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Inderscience Publishers (IEL) Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2016 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=NogL9W0AAAAJ&cstart=20&pagesize=80&citation_for_view=NogL9W0AAAAJ:Y0pCki6q_DkC Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/0b065ecb87707cb5f100e316ed70f4f5.pdf 89c580dcd8b5963e9943663684e5391c Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

However, the place of SNSs as a source of entertainment and enjoyment is also well-documented. The purpose of the paper is to identify the factors that predict continuance use of social networking sites from the perspective of mobile value. Data was collected from 452 students in three leading universities in Ghana and analyzed with Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling. Results from the study revealed that both hedonic value and utilitarian value were significant predictors of continuance intention. Satisfaction was also found to be a significant predictor of continuance intention. In all, the model accounted for 55.6% of the variance in continuance intention.

Title A name given to the resource Information flow between BRVM and ESG stock returns: A frequency-dependent analysis Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Collins Baffour Kyei, George Oppong Appiagyei Ampong, Peterson Owusu Junior, Kwame Simpe Ofori, Kan David N'Dri, Koffi N'Da Description An account of the resource This paper seeks to analyze the information flow between the Bourse Régionale des Valeurs Mobilières (BRVM) and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) stocks, focusing on the time and frequency domains. By studying these aspects, we aim to gain a deeper understanding of how information is transmitted between BRVM and ESG stocks, shedding light on the dynamics and interactions within this context. The study analyzes the decomposed daily returns of four indices: BRVM Composite Index (BRVMCI), BRVM 10 Index (BRVM10), FTSE/JSE SA All Share Index (FTSEJSE), and FTSE/JSE Top 30 Responsible Investment Index (FTSERI). We employed Rényi transfer entropy estimates to measure the information flow between the stocks returns.

Non-volatile acidity, pH, proteolysis, sugars (total, reducing and non-reducing) and FFAs concentrations were analysed using standard methods. Increasing PS consistently decreased the non-volatile acidity with concomitant increase in pH during fermentation of the beans. Fermentation decreased the pH of the unstored beans from 6.7 to 4.9 within the first 4 days and then increased slightly again to 5.3 by the sixth day. Protein, total sugars and non-reducing sugars decreased significantly (p < 0.05) during fermentation, whereas reducing sugars and FFA increased. PS increased the FFA levels, reduced the protein content but did not have any effect on the sugars.

One sucrose alternative that has not been fully explored in chocolate is palm sap-based sugar. This work investigated the impact of sucrose replacement by coconut sugar (CCS1 and CCS2) and palm sugar (CPS1, CPS2 and CPS3) on the quality attributes of dark chocolate, more particularly colour, hardness, flow behaviour and aroma profile. The results showed that chocolates formulated with palm sap-based sugar were lighter in colour and harder than the reference chocolate made with sucrose, which could be attributed to a lower particle density and a higher moisture of palm sap-based sugar than that of sucrose.

Title A name given to the resource Exploring mobile social networking sites continuance intention from the perspective of network externalities and mobile value Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource George Oppong Appiagyei Ampong, Aseda Mensah, Kwabena G Boakye, Grace Simpson, Kwame Simpe Ofori, John Agyekum Addae Description An account of the resource Key shifts in the nature and characteristics of technology have led to evolutions in social media usage. For the first time in history, the internet is being accessed from more mobile devices than desktop computers. This revolution is especially felt among social networking sites, many of whom have presciently developed and released mobile applications of their platforms. Drawing from the Perceived Value Theory, Network Externalities and the Expectation Confirmation Theory of IS Continuance, we tested a model that sought to explain the effect of Network Externalities on Perceived Value and in turn Continuance Intention. Data was collected from 452 students from a university in Ghana and analyzed using the Partial Least Square approach to Structural Equation Modeling. Results from the current study showed that Referent Network Size and Perceived Complementarity had significant effects on both Utilitarian and Hedonic Value as well as Satisfaction. Hedonic Value, Utilitarian Value and Satisfaction in turn were found to be significant predictors of Continuance Intention. In all, the model accounted for 58.0% of the variance in continuance intention. The implications and limitations of the current study are discussed, and directions for future research proposed.

This study assesses long run asymmetric effect of urbanization, energy consumption and regulatory quality on environmental degradation, with data from 1998Q1 to 2017Q4. First pooled mean group (PMG) estimates suggest short-run nonlinear and asymmetric effects of the independent variables on carbons emissions. Second, (i) long-run PMG estimates indicate improvements in regulatory quality reduces carbon dioxide emissions; (ii) increases in both urbanization and fossil energy consumption lead to corresponding rise in carbon dioxide emissions.
