Title A name given to the resource Do petroleum price fluctuations under price deregulation cause business cycles in Ghana? Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Sackey, F.G., Asravor, R.K., Orkoh, E., Ankrah, I. Description An account of the resource In the context of volatilities in the international markets in recent times, studies regarding the complexities of oil price fluctuations have focussed on analysing the special fluctuation characteristics of oil prices in different historical perspectives. This study examines the extent to which petroleum price fluctuations under the petroleum price deregulation regime impact on business cycles in Ghana. The study uses the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model with a quarterly data spanning from the first quarter of 2005 to the fourth quarter of 2022. Our empirical results show that price stability impacts positively on economic growth, both in the short and the long run, while foreign direct investment also has a positive effect on economic growth in the short run. Again, we observe that increases in inflation rate and government petroleum revenue negatively affect economic growth both in the short and the long run. To the best of the authors’ belief and knowledge, the observations and recommendations made are consistent with theory and empirical studies and contribute immensely to the discussions about price asymmetry and business cycles. It also offers a nuanced perspective on how policy makers can enact policies that ensure efficient and effective deregulation and price stability.

Title A name given to the resource An economic valuation of the Bunso Eco-Park, Ghana: an application of travel cost method Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Adu Kwaku, Damoah Eric, Ankomah, Buor Kwame, Benard Oppong-Kusi, Frank Gyimah Sackey Description An account of the resource This research aims at [1] identifying the factors that influence visits to Bunso Eco-Park; [2] estimating the recreational demand function for the park; and [3] estimating visitors’ net benefit (consumer surplus) for embarking on an eco-park recreational trip to Bunso using a sample size of 440. Estimates indicate that the annual person value of the site is Gh¢ 191.06 ($ 22.29) translating into an annual economic value of Gh¢ 9,170,880 (US$ 1,070,114.35). There is an inverse relationship between the rate of visits and the travel cost. The positive intercept of the demand function indicates a normal demand curve for the Bunso Eco-Park. The variables of visitors’ family size, marital status, and years visitors have known the eco-park were not significant. Educational level, age, gender, and knowledge of alternative sites were found to be factors influencing the visitation to the Bunso Eco-Park.

Title A name given to the resource Learner attitudes, satisfaction and success in online learning environments: a mediation-moderation model for higher educational institutions Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Evans Sokro, Theresa Obuobisa-Darko, Bernard Okpattah Description An account of the resource Purpose This study examines learner satisfaction and success as mechanisms through which online learning quality translates into learners’ continuous intentions of use by extending DeLone and McLean’s information system success model. It also examines the moderating effect of perceived supervisory support and learners’ self-regulation on online learning quality in Higher Education Institutions. Design/methodology/approach Survey data were obtained from 540 students in both private and public higher institutions of learning in Ghana. The Partial Least Squares – Structural Equations Modelling (PLS-SEM) technique was used to test the hypothesised relationships. Findings The results revealed that system quality emerged as the single most important variable in the DeLone and McLean model, that influences learner success and satisfaction.

Title A name given to the resource A conceptual framework on finding the nexus between sustainability and desired outcomes for smart cities–the moderating role of green leadership Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource George Kofi Amoako, Theresa Obuobisa-Darko, Kwasi Dartey-Baah, Genevieve Sedalo Description An account of the resource Purpose This paper aims to focus on the nexus between sustainability and desired outcomes for smart cities. The main focus is on how green leadership influences the relationship between smart and sustainable activities and stakeholder management. Design/methodology/approach The work is essentially a non-empirical review of the literature to develop a conceptual model to be tested in a subsequent study. Findings The findings indicate that smart cities and their sustainability activities can drive desired outcomes through green leadership. Also, green leadership has an indirect relationship with the desired outcomes of smart cities; hence, managers in the tourism and hospitality industries should cultivate their green leadership style to assist smart cities in accomplishing their goals.

Title A name given to the resource Promoting carbon neutrality in China: do financial development, foreign direct investment, and industrialization play a material role? Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Jun Yan, Kaodui Li, Mohammed Musah, Lijuan Zhang, Yutong Zhou, Dan Gao, Joseph Akwasi Nkyi, Frank Gyimah Sackey, Emmanuel Attah Kumah, Siqi Cao, Linnan Yao Description An account of the resource One of the crucial issues confronting China is high carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Despite the numerous measures outlined to promote the country’s carbon neutrality target, CO2 emissions in the nation continue to increase. This means that more policy options are needed to help improve environmental sustainability (ES) in the nation. Hence, examining the relationship between financial development (FD), foreign direct investment, industrialization, and environmental sustainability in China to provide proper recommendations to drive the carbon neutrality agenda of the nation is deemed fitting. In attaining this goal, time-series data from the period 1990 to 2018 is employed. According to the results, foreign direct investment deteriorates environmental sustainability by promoting more CO2 emissions. This validates the pollution haven hypothesis (PHH). In addition, industrialization and financial development are not friendly to the nation’s environmental quality. Furthermore, economic growth and urbanization escalate environmental pollution in the nation. In addition, the interactions between financial development and foreign direct investment and between financial development and industrialization deteriorate the environment in China. Moreover, foreign direct investment and financial development have an inverted U-shaped association with environmental degradation, but industrialization and environmental pollution are not nonlinearly related. The study advocated for the implementation of measures that could help advance the carbon-neutrality targets of the nation.

Title A name given to the resource Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Practices of Foreign and Local Companies in Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Robert Ebo Hinson Description An account of the resource This article reports a comparative study of the key motives underlying corporate social responsibility (CSR) practices of foreign and local firms operating in Ghana and the societal as well as business outcomes of these practices. The results show that while the CSR decisions of foreign firms are mainly guided by legal prescriptions, those of their local counterparts are guided mostly by discretionary and social considerations. The socially oriented CSR practices of the local firms are consistent with cultural expectations in Ghana that those with extra resources should support the less privileged members of the society. But the difference in the degree of importance that the two groups of firms attach to discretionary motives for their CSR practices is not statistically significant. The article also discusses the policy, strategy, and research implications of the findings. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
