For this purpose, the author has chosen the Pakistani Rupee exchange rate against United States Dollars with the annual data from 1980 to 2018. The results revealed that the exponential model provides the most effective accuracy in forecasting rather than the Naive, ARIMA and ARDL Co-integration model. This paper has also covered the gap of unavailability of literature regarding the application of ARDL and Exponential Smoothing model for the forecasting of the exchange rate in Pakistan. It is also anticipated that historical data do not play a vital role in the forecasting of the future trend of time series i.e. Pakistani Rupees against US Dollars. However, all three-time series anticipated that the recent observations play a significant role in the speculation of the upcoming future trend. \u0000Keywords: Forecasting, Exchange Rate, Naïve Model, ARDL Co-Integration model, Econometrics","PeriodicalId":286621,"journal":{"name":"NICE Research Journal","volume":"134 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116337439","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}

This study aims to empirically investigate the links of three dimensions of organizational resource availability with transfer of leadership training through trainee motivation to transfer. It further investigates the positive moderated mediation effects of employee core self-evaluation on these relations in developing world context. The study used a cross sectional quantitative design to study the transfer of training. Survey method was adopted to collect data in three-time waves for the study and Hayes' PROCESS tool and AMOS plug-ins were used for testing the hypothesized relationships. Moreover, data were collected using self-reported questionnaires, most of which have been widely validated, from participants belonging to power sector organization in Pakistan. The findings of the study affirmed all the hypotheses in conceptualized directions.Using transfer of skills as context and individual as a unit of real progress and growth, the study philosophizes a much broader perspective of human social development beyond leadership development in developing countries. With the help of Goal Setting theory, the paper builds a case for HRD professionals in developing world to focus their trainings in developing core self-evaluations in employees and leaders alike. The study proposes the poor nations to be confidant on their self-resources and the rich of the world to have higher goals of helping the poor nations in achieving their own goals.","PeriodicalId":286621,"journal":{"name":"NICE Research Journal","volume":"58 11","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120853026","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 results indicate that in the presence of a developed consumer perception, trust and brand salience do not show any significant effect on Intention to transact. However, independently brand salience and trust have significant relationships with Intention to transact. There’s no significant mediating effect of brand salience or trust in deepening consumer perception to the level of ‘Intention to transact’. This study recommends determining the key variables that effect the deepening of consumer perception.

From a practical point of view this study suggests that firms using social media platforms should concentrate more on creating a good perception about their products and brands through SNS. A perceptual position properly created and managed has a very good chance of converting into an Intention to perform a transaction.

An exchange rate is an important tool for controlling various macro-economic variables, and it is itself affected by different macro-economic variables. Pakistan is a developing country of the world and its unstable economy faces high variability in the exchange rate or devaluation of the domestic currency. Therefore, this study investigates the relationship of an exchange rate with selected macro-economic variables (i.e. import, GDP, Inflation & export), with a special focus on Pakistan’s economy. It also aims at finding out the degree of strength at which selected independent variables to leave a significant impact on the exchange rate in the economy of Pakistan (i.e. during the period of 1992 to 2017). For this secondary database study, data extracted from official website of World Bank, State Bank of Pakistan and Economic Surveys of Pakistan. Multiple regression models were used to measure the empirical impact of selected independent variables on exchange rate. Findings show that the Import and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) have a significant negative impact on exchange rate whereas, export and inflation have a significant positive impact on the exchange rate in the economy of Pakistan.

Universities are viewed as markets and students as customers. This research aims to explore education service quality (ESQ) at universities of Pakistan. Punjab is the most populous province of Pakistan having 60 universities. The study is delimited to 29 general public universities of Punjab. Six universities were randomly selected i.e. – University of the Punjab, Government College University Lahore, Islamia University Bahawalpur, University of Sargodha, University of Gujrat, and Government College University Faisalabad. The research relied on the perception of 33 service delivery staff of these universities. A semi-structured interview schedule mainly based on the HEdPERF model (Abdullah 2006) was used, which included six indicators – admissions, academic aspect, non-academic aspects, reputation, access, and program issues. Interviews were transcribed for thematic analysis. It was found that overall ESQ for all six indicators was perceived to be poor and non-academic services were reported to be in a very discouraging state; however, admissions services were found comparatively better. The study recommends that ESQ should be improved by continuously assessing students’ needs and observing trends and demands operative in the contemporary higher education scenario.","PeriodicalId":286621,"journal":{"name":"NICE Research Journal","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132772782","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}
