Title A name given to the resource Superstition and attitudes towards restoration of a mining-degraded forest reserve: Evidence from Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Lilian Arthur, Godwin Kofi Vondolia, Isaac Dasmani Description An account of the resource Forest restoration has become a worldwide phenomenon to minimise the effects of climate change and global warming. However, in most cases, especially in Africa, communities around forests usually have a cultural attachment to these forests. Consequently, the preferences of fringing communities are important to ensure sustainable forest management. However, there seems to be a lack of understanding about how superstition may affect the attitudes of local communities towards forest restoration. This study aimed to examine the effect of superstition on household attitudes and preferences for restoring the Bonsa River Forest Reserve. Primary data was collected from 611 respondents in the Prestea-Huni Valley Municipality in the Western Region of Ghana and were analysed using mixed logit (ML) and generalized multinomial logit (G-MNL) models. The findings revealed that very superstitious respondents … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Elsevier Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2024 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=8wFumg4AAAAJ&citation_for_view=8wFumg4AAAAJ:W7OEmFMy1HYC Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/63c7e807c783ca3269a998c6a0ee18f6.pdf 24f97d7f407e7452a87f726088c5eed1 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 Assessment of the Effect of Corporate Social Responsibility on Financial Perfomance of the Mining Firms in Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Lilian Donkor Mfum Description An account of the resource The recent years have witnessed an increasing scholarly focus on the phenomenon of Corporate Social Responsibility. The pressure from civil societies, governments, and the rise of corporate citizenship have compelled firms to engage in CSR. Previous research demonstrates mixed findings in terms of the association between CSR and firm performance. This study builds on existing research by examining the effect of CSR on financial performance in the context of mining companies in Ghana. The study also explored the nature of CSR activities of firms and the relative effect of various types of CSR on firm performance. The study adopted a quantitative research approach. Both primary and secondary data in the study was collected using questionnaires and also from annual reports of studied companies respectively. Respondents in the study were selected using a purposive sampling strategy. The secondary data collected was a panel data that span the period of 2015-2019. Employing mean scores as data analytical technique, the study finds that the CSR activities of mining companies largely comprise conformity to production’s quality and assurance, steps to deal with all manner of judgments,staff involvement in prominent matters, geared towards employees health and safety, donation to humanitarian activities, and active involvement in projects that benefit local communities. Moreover, using regression as data analytical technique, the results of the study reveals that CSR is related to firms profitability in a positive way after controlling for firm size and growth rates. Findings of the study further point to a greater impact of external CSR on company profitability relative to the effect of internal CSR. From a policy perspective, the study recommends among others that mining firms should prioritize CSR and also focus more on external CSR including donations to charity and policies that enhance welfare of the communities they operate. The study culminates by suggesting future research paths.

Title A name given to the resource Farmer Preference, Utilization, and Biochemical Composition of Improved Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) Varieties in Southeastern Africa Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Linley Chiwona-Karltun, Drinah Nyirenda, Cornelius Nkonkola Mwansa, John Edem Kongor, Leon Brimer, Steven Haggblade, Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa Description An account of the resource Farmer Preference, Utilization, and Biochemical Composition of Improved Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) Varieties in Southeastern Africa Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) varieties are ethnobotanically classified by farmers into two distinct classes—“sweet” or “bitter”—based on their taste, most often reflecting the inherent cyanogenic glucoside potential and intended end use. Varietal preference based on general utilization as well as more targeted end use for preferred local and improved varieties is poorly understood and not well documented. The objectives of this study were to investigate prevailing varietal preferences based on utilization and the biochemical composition of local and recently improved cassava varieties. Interviews were conducted with farmers to document the existing varieties, their origin and taste classification, and processing in relation to end use.

Title A name given to the resource Modeling the Trend of Performance of the Manchester United Football Club in the 1960-2013 English Premiership Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Linus Addae, Martin Owusu Amoamah, Iddrisu Wahab Abdul, Osei Antwi Description An account of the resource This research studied the trend of performance of Manchester United Football Club in the 1960-2013 English premiership seasons. The three main variables involved in this study are the number of games won, games drawn and games lost by Manchester United for the study period. But this study concentrated on the number of games lost since the objective of every manager of a team is to minimize loss and maximize win or draw. Thus the objective of this study is to develop a model for predicting the number of games that would be lost by Manchester United in future seasons using games played in the previous seasons. The data used for this study are secondary data obtained from sportamok and English premiership websites. The statistical technique used for this study is time series analysis. Specifically, Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model was used to develop a model for the number of games lost by Manchester United. The model was used to forecast for the next fifteen seasons. The model predicted that Manchester United will lose six (6) games for 2013/2014 season.
