Food processing assists in reducing negative food changes over time, pleasing customers with flavours, taste and colour, catering to cultural beliefs, empowering women, and providing choice, knowledge, and convenience to health-conscious customers. There are various sectors in food processing industry like fruits and vegetables processing, milk processing, sugar processing, cereal processing etc. The nutritional security of processed food can include four basic issues i.e., food availability, food accessibility, food utilization and food stability. The study aims to identify the status of food processing industries in terms of their production, employment and number of units established in India. The study also tries to find out the extent to which food processing units playing a role in achieving nutritional security among people in India. To achieve these objectives, the study collected data from various secondary sources including reliable data available in published and unpublished books, reports, journals, newspapers, and different research sites. Appropriate statistical tools are used to show the increase in number of food processing units, number of persons engaged and total output in various subsectors of food processing industries in India. The requisite regression equations are also calculated in the study which shows that the growth in number of units and employment are positively related with output levels of food processing units in India. Results by applying tests of significance shows that there is a strong association between two attributes viz. imports and exports of processed products in India. Thus, we can conclude that India is self-sufficient in making the processed products from different subsectors of food processing on the one hand and in achieving the nutritional security (food availability, accessibility, utilization, and stability) among people of India on the other.","PeriodicalId":145800,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Research in Commerce and Management Studies","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130066727","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}

Controversy remains concerning whether these initiatives truly encourage institutions to continuously work to improve the quality of care provided. To address some of these knowledge gaps, we applied data from the Modern Healthcare Hospital Penalties and Rewards dataset to identify potential relationships. We found the mean HVBP adjustments differed significantly between Ohio and Washington with a mean difference of 0.10% and between Pennsylvania and Washington 0.08%; and the mean hospital overall ratings differed significantly between Georgia and Ohio with mean a difference of 0.58 and between Ohio and Washington 0.65. Therefore, by evaluating the potential relationships, we can interpret the impact of geographic region on Medicare rewards and penalties, healthcare quality, and thus the impact on patient care.","PeriodicalId":145800,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Research in Commerce and Management Studies","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130394205","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}

The gig economy, which is an independent way of working, is growing rapidly in the changing business world. It is thought that the gig economy, which extends from digital-based platforms to location-based platforms, from local markets to international markets, will directly affect employment with its adoption by employers and employees. In this study, the effects of the gig economy on employment are discussed by considering both positive and negative aspects. In order for countries to hold power economically, politically and technologically, employers and employees in the gig economy need to make decisions that will benefit the economy and employment and find remedies for the negative aspects of the model. While the gig economy continues to grow rapidly, it is understood that different problems will increase from different perspectives such as employment, human resources and legal issues and the discussions will continue for a long time. The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of the gig economy on employment and to reveal how it will affect employment as a new business model and to contribute to the literature. In addition, it is aimed to guide governments, employers and employees by revealing what problems the gig economy may cause and what benefits it can provide in the future, with a structured conceptual-theoretical review.","PeriodicalId":145800,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Research in Commerce and Management Studies","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134171136","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}

An imbalance in merchandise trade that is not covered by invisible earnings leads to current account deficits. With the exception of a few years, the Indian economy has faced deficits in its current account since the 1980s due to excessive imports accompanied by sluggish growth in exports. A large current account deficit was a key reason among many for the severe balance of payments crisis in 1991. Having no other options in sight, the country resorted to economic reforms on a massive scale in subsequent years. With economic reforms and judicious external sector policies, the country became resilient on the external front in the late 1990s. Moreover, the government realized a current account surplus for three consecutive years, i.e., from 2001-02 to 2003-04 and the current account deficit was not a cause of concern for policymakers until the advent of the global financial crisis in 2008-09. The present paper discusses the trend and composition of India’s current account since the 1990s, the reasons for expanding the current account deficit, and policy responses by the government to make the current account sustainable.","PeriodicalId":145800,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Research in Commerce and Management Studies","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128393782","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}

Materials and Methods: The study selected 119 (82 females and 37 males) interviewees. Researchers used partial least squares (PLS) regression and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to measure the model and test the hypothesis. Results: The study showed that actual self-congruity is positively related to trust, the norm of reciprocity, identification, and extrinsic religiosity—ideal self-congruity is positively related to intrinsic religiosity and spirituality. Identification, extrinsic religiosity, and spirituality are positively related to online shared knowledge. Conclusion: Cognitive dimension of social capital is related to ideal self-congruity. Relational and structural dimensions of social capital are related to actual self-congruity. Ideal self-congruity derives from self-identity, and actual self-congruity derives from self-consistency. Self-identity is associated with intrinsic religiosity and spirituality. Self-consistency is associated with trust, the norm of reciprocity, identification, and extrinsic religiosity.
