Authors: Tan Caitlin
Published: January 2025

Under the oppression of patriarchal society, females are living in social norms where their behaviors are limited due to the stereotypes and ideals set toward females. In current research, scholars have already determined social norms established under the domination of patriarchal society and the effects that it has on females. Furthermore, marketing campaigns targeting females are determined to be consumerism traps that encourage female's purchases. Even though lots of scholars criticize this phenomenon, the solution is not given. By analyzing the world-famous high-end skin care company SK-II and the most talked-about feminist movie, Barbie. Issues of capitalism toward females can be analyzed through both marketing campaigns and social media. Therefore, it can be affirmed that female consumer psychology and behavior are affected by advertisements emphasizing traditional roles and stereotypes of females. In other words, capitalism has become an accomplice to the patriarchal society. Hence, this study aims to combine the perspectives of female consumers and businesses to build a balanced model, as well as raise female's awareness toward consumer traps. This model can be used to help businesses establish campaigns that females really needed to free them from the constraints of social patriarchy, which foster long-term mutualistic relationships.

Tourism Development and Environmental Sustainability: A Study on the Dual Impact on Economic Growth in Developing Countries
Authors: Cui Hexu
Published: January 2025

This study explores the intricate relationship between tourism development, economic growth, energy consumption, and environmental sustainability in developing countries, with a particular focus on Indonesia and Brazil. While tourism significantly contributes to economic growth and job creation, its rapid expansion often exacerbates environmental pressures, raising concerns about long-term sustainability. By analyzing the case of Indonesia, where tourism is both a vital economic driver and a source of environmental stress, this study highlights the importance of balancing economic growth with environmental protection. Furthermore, the paper performs an empirical investigation of the impact of international visitor arrivals, economic growth, and energy consumption on CO2 emissions in Brazil. Using the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) technique, the study aims to fill a gap in understanding the relationship between tourism and carbon emissions, particularly in the context of carbon neutrality and the Sustainable Development Goals. The findings aim to inform the development of policies that mitigate the environmental impact of tourism while fostering sustainable economic growth. This study contributes to the broader literature on the role of decarbonization in achieving emission reductions and promoting sustainable tourism practices.
S&P 500 Index Price Prediction Based on ARIMA Model
Authors: Zhang Weixin
Published: January 2025

This study investigates the use of the ARIMA model to forecast S&P 500 index price fluctuations. Finding out if ARIMA is a good fit for financial time series forecasting with an emphasis on trend and volatility detection is the main goal. The study employs historical data from January to May 2024, using ARIMA to forecast future trends. Part of the inquiry includes a comprehensive assessment of the model's performance, including its ability to spot short-term fluctuations and anticipate accurately. Data detection such as white noise and seasonality is carried out to determine whether the model can be applied, and parameters of the model are determined to pursue the accuracy of the prediction results and the comparison with historical real data. The results suggest that while ARIMA effectively forecasts long-term trends, it struggles with capturing short-term volatility. Recommendations are made for future studies to improve prediction accuracy by integrating more complex models or enhancing parameter tuning.

The Impact of Negative Emotions on Consumer Behaviors
Authors: Ye Zhenru
Published: January 2025

The hallmarks of impulse buying are abrupt, impulsive behaviors motivated by intense emotional reactions to external cues. When presented with specific things, consumers frequently have a strong want to buy; yet, this behaviour might result in regret after the purchase. Conformity buying is driven by the demand for social belonging or the fear of social exclusion, when customers purchase popular things to align with others. Anxiety, panic, and envy are examples of negative emotions that can exacerbate impulsive consumption, especially during difficult times like the COVID-19 pandemic. Research has indicated that social influences, like peer comparison and peer pressure, might lead to impulsive or conformist purchasing behaviour among consumers. Emotional fulfillmentwhether it comes from making friends or feeling betteris a major factor in determining how customers behave in both situations. This study sheds insight on the social and emotional elements that influence compulsive and impulsive purchasing. It highlights the significance of strong feelings and social forces, such peer pressure, in influencing the choices that consumers make, especially in trying times like the COVID-19 pandemic.
Research on Factors Influencing NEV Prices-Take Cheapest Electric Cars in Germany, 2023 as an Example
Authors: Lin Jiaqi
Published: January 2025

As an essential tool to fight global warming and climate change, new energy vehicles are under spotlight. The purpose of this article is to identify the variables that affect NEV prices. 300 samples of the cheapest NEVs in Germany in 2023 are analyzed using the Multiple Linear Regression approach to determine the significant factors that affect NEV prices. Seven selected factors exhibit a correlation with NEV prices, predicated on an assumption. In addition, the interaction effects between the battery capacity and the maximum distance the automobile may go are examined in this study. The covariance problem resulting from the addition of interaction components is solved using Forward Stepwise Regression. The research examines the VIF value and significance of those variables in order to assess the efficacy of this operation. It turns out that the price of an automobile is significantly correlated with its battery capacity, top speed, electricity consumption per kilometer, maximum distance traveled, and number of seats. However, the significance test is not passed by the car's acceleration capability, or its maximum distance traveled after one hour of charging. All things considered, it can be said that these variables somewhat affect the costs of the least expensive NEVs.

Analysis of Capital Asset Pricing Model: Advantages, Disadvantages and Alternative Models
Authors: Dong Xinyi
Published: January 2025

Return on investment and investment risk have long been worries for investors in financial area. The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is the main subject of this investigation. Given the background that the CAPM has limitations but is still important for investors, this paper examines the benefits and weaknesses of the model as well as the four alternatives: the Consumer Capital Asset Pricing Model (CCAPM), the Fama-French Five Factor Model (FFFM), the Fama-French Three Factor Model (FFM), and Arbitrage Pricing Theory (APT). The inference made is that, given to certain assumptions, investors can apply this pricing model to make some judgments more quickly. Investors utilizing the CAPM model can consult the findings of the other four alternative models, all of which have advantages beyond those of the CAPM. The target of the study is to examine and evaluate the ways in which each pricing model can assist investors in reaching the best possible decisions.

A Value-Based Healthcare Approach in Resource-Constrained Settings
Authors: Chen Qinuo
Published: January 2025

A 50-year-old patient with concurrent bladder cancer, an open leg fracture, and a hernia needs to decide which surgery should be prioritized. The operating room has limited resources and operates at night. Hospitals must prioritize one of three procedures. The order of surgery needed to be based on the concept of value-based healthcare, taking into account the urgency of the surgery, the long-term health of the patient, and the efficient use of surgical resources to maximize the health benefits to the patient. The decision was made to prioritize open leg fracture surgery because open fractures mean that the wound is prone to infection and possible complications. This surgery is an emergency situation to prevent the patient from losing too much blood resulting in shock and wound infection, which can even be life-threatening. In addition, early surgery, which helps the wound heal, promotes faster recovery and avoids amputation and disability, must be prioritized. This decision was made because open fractures are highly prone to infection and complications, representing an emergency that could lead to severe blood loss, shock, or life-threatening infection. Early intervention in such cases is crucial for promoting wound healing, preventing disability, and avoiding amputation, thereby maximizing the patients long-term health outcomes.

This crisis would lead to impacts on both the domestic economy and the global economy. The domestic impacts include a fall in consumer confidence, rising unemployment, increased financial instability, and decreased government revenue; the global impacts include negatively influenced trading markets, a rise in risk for foreign investors, and stress on the international monetary system. To address the problem of the real estate crisis, the Chinese government has implemented some policies, including re-lending to commercial banks, lowering down payment thresholds, reducing mortgage interest rates, and loosening criteria for qualification of first-time buyers. To resolve the crisis, the government should aim to reduce the significance of real estate to the overall economy. This process should be gradual while progressive policies should be implemented. Policies that aim to directly contract or expand the market could be dangerous for the economy due to the significance of the real estate sector.

In modern business, price war is the first choice for many companies to seize market share or quickly recover R&D costs. In many price wars, we can find the shadow of the Bertrand model, a classic model in game theory. This article focuses on the successful application of the pricing strategy derived from the Bertrand model by Didi in the Chinese market and compares its failure in the British supermarket Asda. It further analyzes why this difference occurs, and based on past experience, how companies can better apply the Bertrand model to seize market share in the future. This academic work uses an extensive review of existing literature and thorough case studies to highlight that pricing strategies based on the Bertrand model do not always lead to positive results. It reveals the possible drawbacks and hazards of using these strategies and suggests various ways for companies to avoid them when they try to increase their market share by cutting prices. The paper explores the complexities of the Bertrand model, looking at the theory behind it and how it's used in practice, as well as the impact of lowering prices on the competitive market environment. Moreover, it gives advice on how firms can handle the challenges of pricing to meet their goals without sacrificing their financial health or market standing in the long run.
