Title A name given to the resource The interplay between privacy, trust and self-disclosure on social networking sites Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Eli Fianu, Kwame Simpe Ofori, Richard Boateng, George Oppong Appiagyei Ampong Description An account of the resource Social Networking Sites (SNSs) have become an essential part of the daily lives of billions of people worldwide. Because SNS service providers use a revenue model that relies on data licensing (selling of user data), they share user data with other parties such as government institutions and private businesses. Sharing of user data to third parties raises several privacy concerns. Apart from privacy issues emanating from SNSs sharing user information with third parties, privacy issues may also emanate from users sharing information with SNS members. This study is motivated by the researchers’ interest in investigating self-disclosure amongst Ghanaians especially from the perspective of privacy and trust primarily because of recent reports of revenge pornography and other self-disclosure related privacy violations on SNSs in Ghana. A survey was conducted on 523 students from three private universities … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Springer International Publishing Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2019 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&amp;hl=en&amp;user=NogL9W0AAAAJ&amp;citation_for_view=NogL9W0AAAAJ:Se3iqnhoufwC Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/c0fb5f9d65053a5dec3b7e434555f965.pdf f012df5027393678d317e1aea776286f Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Clients who called at any of the twenty (20) selected Pharmacies in residential areas within the Kumasi metropolis demanding the drug, with or without valid prescriptions were interviewed using a guide. Of the two hundred and twenty (220) users interviewed, 94% demanded the drug for contraception and 6% for menstrual disorders. Sixty one percent of those demanding it for contraception were between the ages 20-25 years. Respondents preferred the use of norethisterone tablets as a contraceptive to other methods because it worked for them and they also found it easy and convenient taking a tablet just before coitus than taking daily oral contraceptive pills.

Title A name given to the resource Influence of pulp-preconditioning and fermentation on fermentative quality and appearance of Ghanaian cocoa (Theobroma cacao) beans Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource OA Emmanuel, Q Jennifer, SB Agnes, ST Jemmy, KS Firibu Description An account of the resource Studies were conducted to evaluate effects of pod storage (as a means of pulp pre-conditioning) and fermentation time on the fermentative quality and appearance of Ghanaian cocoa beans. The fermentative quality (cut test and fermentation index [FI]) and colour (L, a, b) of the cocoa beans were studied using standard methods. Increasing pod storage and fermentation time significantly (P< 0.05) influenced the fermentative quality and appearance of the beans. Fermentation caused significant increases in FI at all periods of pod storage whilst increasing pod storage resulted in darker, yellower and less red beans. Cut test scores revealed that storage of pods for 7 and 14 days increased the percentage of brown beans by 15 and 38% respectively by the sixth day of fermentation. Thus, Ghanaian cocoa pods could be stored for up to 14 days prior to fermentation with optimum fermentative quality and desired colour … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Universiti Putra Malaysia, Faculty of Food Science & Technology Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2012 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&amp;hl=en&amp;user=EZuX1N8AAAAJ&amp;pagesize=80&amp;citation_for_view=EZuX1N8AAAAJ:LYDvBi7O6RsC Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/e862ffdb684928cc85fd232f6373d632.pdf 17aaa82d97b7796bb29f659838ec7b3e 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 Owner-managers failure experience and business model innovations in B2B firms: The roles of coopetition, managerial persistence, and financial resource slack Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Richard B Nyuur, Francis Donbesuur, Diana Owusu-Yirenkyi, George Oppong Appiagyei Ampong, Ahmed Adel Tantawy Description An account of the resource This study proposes and tests a model of how and when previous failure experience can impact on subsequent business model innovation of business-to-business (B2B) SMEs. Analysis of survey data from a sample of 182 B2B SMEs in Ghana indicates that failure experience is positively related to business model innovation – and that coopetition capability mediates this failure experience. Further analysis of boundary condition effects reveals that high levels of financial resource slack strengthen the positive relationship between coopetition and business model innovation, while the level of managerial persistence has no effect on failure experience and coopetition relationship. We discuss the theoretical and managerial implications of these findings.

Title A name given to the resource Service quality affecting student satisfaction in higher education institutions in Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource George Kofi Amoako, George Oppong Ampong, Antoinette Yaa Benewaa Gabrah, Felicia de Heer, Alex Antwi-Adjei Description An account of the resource Higher education stakeholders have re-strategized to identify the unique competitive causes of comfortability among students’ satisfaction. Student satisfaction has been largely observed in the literature as a significant strategy and competitive factor for higher education providers. This has compelled institutions to implement quality measures to attract and retain both potential and current students. Therefore, this research is to explore the determinants of student satisfaction. Cross-sectional data was generated from a purposive sample of 400 students across higher education institutions in Ghana. The data was analysed using multiple regression. Expectation theory is the theory that unpins this study. The results reveal that administrative services, academic services, and physical evidence are significant components of service quality.

A number of studies have examined ISP compliance from the perspective of deterrence; however, there have been mixed results. The study seeks to examine information security compliance from the perspective of the general deterrence theory (GDT) and information security climate (ISC). Data was collected from 329 employees drawn from the five top-performing banks in Ghana and analyzed with PLS-SEM. Results from the study show that security education training and awareness, top-management's commitment for information security, and peer non-compliance behavior affect the information security climate in an organization.

Title A name given to the resource Changes in nib acidification and biochemical composition during fermentation of pulp pre-conditioned cocoa (Theobroma cacao) beans Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa, JE Kongor, J Takrama, AS Budu Description An account of the resource Studies were conducted to establish changes in nib acidification and biochemical composition (sugars concentration, proteins and free fatty acids) during fermentation of pulp pre-conditioned cocoa beans using a 4 x 3 full factorial experimental design with pod storage (0, 3, 7 and 10 days) and fermentation time (0, 3 and 6 days) as the principal factors. Non-volatile (titratable) acidity, pH, sugars (reducing, non-reducing and total sugars), proteins and free fatty acids of the beans were studied using standard analytical methods. Pod storage caused consistent increases in pH of the nibs at all fermentation times with consequential decrease in non-volatile (titratable) acidity. Bean fermentation from pods stored between 3–7 days resulted in cocoa nibs with pH between 5.10–5.36 with only minimal changes in FFA. However, fermentation significantly (p < 0.05) decreased the non-reducing sugars, total sugars and protein content of the beans whilst reducing sugars increased. Similarly, pod storage caused marginal reductions in total and non-reducing sugars with consequential increase in reducing sugars whiles protein content was reduced significantly. Storage of cocoa pod between 3–7 days with 6 days of fermentation led to considerable reductions in nib acidification, sugars (non-reducing and total sugars) and proteins with concomitant increases in reducing sugars and acceptable FFA levels Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Faculty of Food Science & Technology, UPM Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2013 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=EZuX1N8AAAAJ&cstart=20&pagesize=80&citation_for_view=EZuX1N8AAAAJ:IWHjjKOFINEC Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/ecad14beff55dacca6843656c10b4bac.pdf d0de6b745ad1c44e714f9fca0f2c18e8 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The combined effect of cowpea (0–20%), groundnut (0–10%), and feed moisture (14–48%) levels were used for formulation of the products. The product moisture, expansion ratio, bulk density and total colour change were studied using standard analytical methods. Well-expanded rice–legume blend extrudates of less bulk density and lower moisture content were produced at low feed moisture. Increasing legume addition affected the various shades of colour in the product. Models developed for the indices gave R2 values ranging from 52.8% (for the b-value) to 86.5% (for bulk density).

Variations in PSD had no influence on crystallinity of products at all temper regimes. Particle size (PS) increases had limited effects on Tonset, Tpeak, and ΔHmelt independent of temper regime but significant decreases in Tend and Tindex were noted. Contrary, varying temper regime influenced the crystallinity and melting properties (Tend, Tindex and ΔHmelt) of products. Under-tempered chocolate showed widened crystal size distribution (CSD) with significant changes in Tend, Tindex and ΔHmelt of products.
