Adler’s (1930) assertions on the personality differences based on different birth order were used as this study’s theoretical basis. The respondents of the study were taken from the Grade 10 high school students of Nuestra Senora de Aranzazu Parochial School located in San Mateo, Rizal, Philippines. Using purposive sampling 77 “first born,” 55 “middle child,” 71 “last born” and 30 “only child” respondents were obtained. The respondents’ academic performances through their general weighted average in 2017 were also taken. The chi-square formula yielded a value of 8.696 which is higher than the critical value of 7.81. Therefore, it could be inferred that there is a significant relationship between birth order and academic performance. Welch T tests were computed between the academic performances of the different birth orders. This statistical tool yielded a t value of 1.8145 between first born and only child, a t value of 1.6988 between middle child and only child, a t value of 1.6054 between last born and only child, a t value of -1.8145 between only child and first born, a t value of -1.6988 between only child and middle child and a t value of -1.6504 between only child and last born. The preceding Welch t values all indicate a significant difference in the academic performance of the respective respondents.","PeriodicalId":10477,"journal":{"name":"Cognitive Social Science eJournal","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90203663","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Motivated by the argument that the manner in which bargaining unfolds often depends on antecedents, I embed the bargaining process in an evolutionary framework. First, I posit that there exist two separate populations, and in each period, one individual is randomly drawn from each population to bargain. The bargaining protocol used is the Nash demand game, and the demand that each individual makes is guided by the demands made by the other population in the recent past. I show that under very general conditions, the bargaining process reaches a convention, where each population settles on demanding a fixed share of the pie, and the demands of each population are both compatible with each other, and cumulatively exhaust the pie. Next, I identify the most advantageous behavioural trait in the long-run: in the convention that is stable in the long-run, a population of 'wildly optimistic' individuals obtains almost the entire pie against a population comprised of 'almost any other' behavioural type. Secondly, since this two-population bargaining game does not allow for evolutionary selection, I analyse the stability of a behavioural trait in a playing-the-field model of bargaining by examining the relative performance of an incumbent population described by a particular behavioural trait against a mutant of another behavioural trait. I show that all behavioural traits are unstable as they are susceptible to invasion by any mutant trait. However, the only state where any behavioural trait can co-exist with any other mutant trait is when the pie is shared equally. This demonstrates the importance of the equal-splitting norm for co-existence of various behavioural traits, and hence, for sustainable population diversity.","PeriodicalId":10477,"journal":{"name":"Cognitive Social Science eJournal","volume":"212 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77486018","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we analyze the issues, solutions, and implementation of PMI tasks in MCSs at each phase of a cross-border merger from the perspective of the organization, and employees, policies and procedures, reporting, communication and monitoring, and information technology. Our case study has several implications for PMI in MCSs. First, expedited completion of PMI in MCSs is necessary because it is equivalent to structuring the a monitoring system of for overall management and PMI task processes at the acquired firm. Second, setting the extent of managerial discretion at the acquired firm is a prerequisite for the effective installation of MCSs. Lastly, in order to minimize merger risks, a PMI-dedicated business division must be designated in the an early phase and executed with due diligence.","PeriodicalId":10477,"journal":{"name":"Cognitive Social Science eJournal","volume":"56 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85843095","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
