FFECT OF BRAND IMAGE ON CUSTOMER SATISFACTION & LOYALTY INTENTION AND THE ROLE OF CUSTOMER SATISFACTION BETWEEN BRAND IMAGE AND LOYALTY INTENTION: A STUDY IN CONTEXT OF COSMETIC PRODUCT
Authors: Upamannyu Nischay Kumar 
Published: February 2019

AbstractThe Purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of brand image benefit on customer satisfaction and Loyalty intention directly and indirectly based upon hypothetical model in the current study for a cosmetic brand (Fair lovely) at Gwalior (M.P) in India. The measures were reconstructed and re-standardized to make it suitable for the purpose of the study. Numbers of factors were identified through exploratory factor analysis for all the variables.Â The results of multiple regression revealed that there is a strong positive relationship between brand image and loyalty intention, While, the relationship between customer satisfaction and loyalty intention was found to be less weak. This indicates that there might be a mediation effect of customer satisfaction between brand image and loyalty intention. For evaluating the mediation effect Sobel test was applied and the result of the Sobel test was found to be positive. Hence, a mediating effect of customer satisfaction was found between Brand Image and Loyalty Intention. The measure of brand image was constituted of Functional, Social, Symbolic, experiential and appearance enhance. A survey was carried out on 200 respondents. The results also indicated that overall satisfaction does influence customers' loyalty which implies that marketers should focus on brand image benefits to achieve customer loyalty.

The results of increase in knowledge, fast-paced technology and changes in working environment leads adult as learners to be more competitive. As potential human resources, adult learners should cultivate their self-directed learning ability in order to be more competitive. However, adult learners still face great difficulty in gaining new knowledge as todays adult learners are still very much lack of readiness to self-direct in learning. It is important for adult learners who pursue distance learning to possess self-directed learning ability. Therefore, one of the options for these adult learners to develop their self-directed learning ability is through the practice in distance learning. This learning provides a platform for adult learners to planning, implementing and evaluating their own learning activities.

Published: February 2019

Using an event study analysis, we aim to investigate the impact of political, economic, social and terrorism events, on the Tunisian financial sector, over the period of the Tunisian Revolution; from (12)2010 to (04)2014. Based on a daily data analysis using three selected variables ; Sectoral index of performance of Tunisian banks ,Index of Tunisian stock market and the exchange rate Euro/ Dinar, the EGARCH model results have highlighted that general events decrease the return of our variables, and increase their volatility. More, results have shown that stock market is very sensitive to political and terrorism events, bad economic events increase the volatility of the exchange rate, and decrease the performance of banking sector. Political events remain the more important component, they affect negatively all the endogenous variables; coefficients in the mean equation show an important decline in term of the return of banking sector ,the stock market and the exchange rate.

Javier Garcerá. L’insider del paesaggio
Authors: Ingarao Giulia 
Published: February 2019

Il testo analizza l’opera dell’artista Javier Garcerá dalla ne degli anni novanta ad oggi. Nella sua ricerca è centrale il tema «paesaggio», inteso come scenario del mondo in cui si consuma la diatriba tra natura e cultura. L’analisi delle diverse serie pittoriche realizzate a partire dal 1999 mostra come l’artista abbia condotto un’indagine parallela alla storia della rappresentazione del paesaggio, ripercorrendone ambiguità ed evoluzioni. Dalla natura sublime del romanticismo e la nascita delle scienze borghesi si passa all’a ermarsi della fotogra a come alternativa competitiva nella rappresen- tazione del mondo. Lo studio di Garcerá attraversa anche le avanguardie, attingendo alla velocità e mobilità di visione del Futurismo e al desiderio di contemplazione della pittura or ca o del più tardo Color Field. Javier Garcerá, metabolizza tutta questa informazione traducendola in immagine viva, cangiante e, attraverso il ricercato uso delle luci e di tessuti preziosi, raggiunge nelle sue opere una soluzione estetica che o re un’alternativa valida all’atro a del paesaggio del XX secolo: il fruitore cessa di essere spettatore passivo per diventare parte viva del paesaggio.
La justificación científica y filosófica del respeto hacia la naturaleza: Teilhard de Chardin, Arne Naess y el Papa Francisco
Authors: Vico Martín José 
Published: February 2019

Tres modelos de sensibilidad ecológico-social son visibles hoy en relación con la naturaleza. El primero, el más atávico, consiste en la indiferencia instintiva. El segundo, algo más elaborado, en su conservación utilitaria. Y el tercero, el más consistente, en el respeto esencial por ella. Y ahí, en el vértice de la jerarquía humana pensante; aislados, pocos, románticos e iluminados, encontramos a unos cuantos personajes que tratan, machaconamente, de expandir un «extraño» mensaje entre el amasijo tecnocientífico actual; el del ecologismo comprometido. Su imperativo es inapelable: somos el único ser vivo del planeta dotado de suficiente autoconsciencia y, por eso mismo, de exigible responsabilidad. Sobre todo, en el caso de que existieran argumentos suficientes que enlacen nuestra estirpe con el resto de los seres vivos de la Tierra. Y ese es el objetivo de este artículo. Teilhard de Chardin, Arne Naess y el papa Francisco son tres de los mejores ejemplos de quienes han contribuido a la justificación científica y filosófica del respeto debido a la Naturaleza. En ellos, centraremos nuestro análisis.
El cine de Albert Serra: apropiación y reinterpretación fílmica de los clásicos literarios
Authors: Gonzalez de Canales Carcereny Júlia 
Published: February 2019

El cine de Albert Serra es conocido por su carácter artístico y su permanente diálogo con los clásicos literarios. Este artículo busca analizar la relación que las películas del director bañolense mantienen con las obras literarias universales, explorando el concepto de adaptación cinematográfica y cuestionando su adecuación en la concepción de la propuesta cinematográfica de Serra. Centrando el estudio en El cant dels ocells (2008),El Senyor ha fet en mi meravelles (2011) y La mort de Louis XIV (2016), el artículo pone en relevancia la función referencial que la literatura tiene en el proceso de creación fílmico que lleva a cabo Albert Serra. Alejándose de la concepción más tradicional de la práctica de la adaptación, Serra se apropia de los clásicos, los reinterpreta y los lleva a la pantalla sin por ello renunciar a su esencia artística. De esta manera, presenta una obra artística y autónoma que resulta estéticamente independiente de los relatos literarios que la preceden.Abstract:The cinema of Albert Serra is well known by its artistic nature and its relation with the classics of European literature. Therefore, the main aims of this paper are to research the relationship of Serra’s films with world literature, to explore the concept of cinematic adaptation and to question its appropriateness to Serra’s cinematic work. Focusing on El cant dels ocells (2008), El Senyor ha fet en mi meravelles (2011) and La mort de Louis XIV (2016), this paper underlines the referential function that literature plays within Serra’s creative cinematographic process. Thus, moving away from the traditional idea of adaptation, the paper explores how Serra borrows the most reknown literary classics, reinterprets them personally and brings them to the big screen without subverting its artistic essence. By doing so, he presents an artistic and autonomus cinematographic work which becomes esthetically independent of the previous literary books.

Published: February 2019

El objetivo de este estudio es analizar la percepción del nivel de calidad de vida y determinar el perfil de estado de ánimo de las mujeres deportistas que practican pádel y compararlo con los resultados obtenidos por las mujeres sedentarias. Las participantes del estudio fueron 60 mujeres extremeñas (Edad media = 40,43 ± 5,73 años), divididas en dos grupos, distinguiendo entre mujeres deportistas que practican pádel y mujeres sedentarias. Se utilizó el Cuestionario Internacional de Actividad Física para dividir a las participantes en dos grupos (deportistas y sedentarias) y posteriormente se aplicó cuestionario del Perfil de Estado de Ánimo y el test EuroQol-5D para conocer la percepción de calidad de vida. Los resultados de este trabajo mostraron valores significativamente más elevados en el todas las dimensiones del estado de ánimo en las mujeres deportistas. Sin embargo, no parece que la práctica de pádel influya significativamente en las dimensiones de calidad de vida excepción de la medida en la escala visual analógica, que es superior en las mujeres practicantes de pádel

Abstract
The present study characterizes seed-related traits, phytochemical, physiochemical parameters and fatty acid profile of shea (Vitellaria paradoxa) seeds collected from the Kosubosu, Fufu and Sare areas of Kwara State, Nigeria to determine the effects of microclimate on seed morphology, biochemical and oil constituents. Seed morphological data were analyzed for variability. Seed oil was extracted for phytochemical constituents, physicochemical properties, and fatty acid profiling by gas chromatography equipped with mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Results showed intra and inter-locational variations in seed characters. Most fruits had 1–2 seeds. Seeds were predominantly brown and very few were dark brown. Phytochemicals and physicochemical parameters of the seed oil varied with place of collection. Alkaloid, saponin, tannin and phytate contents ranged between 0.79–0.84, 1.20–1.26, 1.48–1.56 and 0.15–0.18 mg g−1 respectively. The density of the oil was less than that of water, acid value ranged from 10.58–13.56 mg KOH g−1 and iodine values were between 36.63 to 40.32 g I2 (100 g)–1. Saponification values lie between 160.39 and 184.14 mg KOH g−1; and free fatty acid was within 5.32–6.81 %. Peroxide, ɑ-tocopherol, total phenol and oxalate values as well as viscosity of the oil also varied; however, refractive index was similar. Ethyl oleate and octadecanoic acids were present and most abundance in all the locations, while glycidol stearate was only found in Fufu samples with three other fatty acids. Five fatty acids were present in Kosubosu, while Sare had only two. The results obtained in the present study indicate that shea oil could be used for medicinal, nutritional and industrial purposes. Since seed characters, phytochemical, physicochemical and fatty acid compositions varied with the microclimate, environmental and micro-ecological conditions should be considered when collecting seeds for oil utilization.
Rocky coastal vegetation of the class Crithmo-Staticetea in the south-east of Italy
Authors: Tomaselli Valeria , Terzi Massimo 
Published: February 2019

AbstractIn the south-east of Italy, rocky coasts are almost entirely concentrated in the Apulia region. Several phytosociological papers have already dealt with the rocky coastal vegetation of the classCrithmo-Staticeteain some parts of the Apulian coast. However, there is still no overall revision carried out by using modern statistical treatments of phytosociological data. This paper aims to revise the syntaxonomy and nomenclature of the classCrithmo-Staticeteain the south-east of Italy. The revision is based on a data set of 225 relevés consisting of new and original phytosociological relevés (66) and others already published. The data matrix was classified with the use of flexible beta clustering. Indicator species analysis was employed to identify the indicator species of the main clusters of relevés. Results were interpreted from a syntaxonomic point of view. Non-metric multidimensional scaling ordination was performed in order to visualize the floristic relationships among associations. Rocky coastal vegetation of theCrithmo-Staticeteaclass in the south-east of Italy is represented by two orders,Crithmo maritimi-StaticetaliaandHelichrysetalia italici. The first one includes two alliances,Crithmo-StaticionandLimonion anfracti-cancellati, with four associations and one, respectively. However, since they rely on very few character species, the floristic and syntaxonomic relationships between these two alliances need to be deepened by further investigations, involving a larger data set and investigation area. The second order,Helichrysetalia italici, includes two associations, well differentiated by their ecology, structure and floristic composition. For this reason, they were classified within two different alliances,Anthyllidion barbae-jovisandHelichrysion litorei. TheHelichrysion litoreiis here validated.

Abstract
Summary This study aimed to find a relationship between vitamin D concentration and thiol-disulfide homeostasis in the pathophysiology of overactive bladder (OAB) syndrome in postmenopausal women. A total of 76 postmenopausal women, referred for routine controls, were recruited between January and March 2018 to participate in this study. Participants with an overactive bladder questionnaire (OAB-q) score of >11 (n = 34) were included in the OAB syndrome group, while those with a score of <5 (n = 42) were included in the control group. Serum total antioxidant capacity, ischemiamodified albumin, C-reactive protein, 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels, and thiol-disulfide homeostasis were measured. Patients with OAB syndrome had waist circumferences of 106 ± 11 cm, and their body mass indexes (BMIs) were 30.8 ± 4.8 kg/m2. The control groups’ waist circumferences were 102 ± 11 cm and their BMIs were 28.9 ± 4.3 kg/m2 (p = 0.069 and p = 0.098, respectively). The level of vitamin D in the control group was 33.7 (IQR: 30.7) nmol/L and 27.0 (IQR: 27.5) nmol/L (p = 0.081) in the OAB syndrome group.Conclusion: We were not able to demonstrate with certainty any significant relationships between serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels and thiol-disulfide homeostasis parameters and OAB syndrome.

Abstract
The anticoagulant rodenticides are the most commonly used toxicants to control rodents nowadays. Therefore, developing resistance to them is an issue of great importance for pest control. The aim of this study was to investigate the sensitivity of synanthropic rodents in the Stara Zagora region, Bulgaria to some of the most significant first (warfarin and coumatetralyl) and second (bromadiolone and brodifacoum) generation anticoagulants. Resistance tests were carried out by a standard protocol using lethal feeding period tests and blood clotting response tests according to the European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organization (Paris, France) standard. Studies were performed on 278 wild synanthropic rodents – 67 house mice (Mus musculus), 153 roof rats (Rattus rattus) and 58 brown rats (Rattus norvegicus). The rodents belonged to 11 populations inhabiting 9 animal farms in the region of Stara Zagora, Southern Bulgaria. High-level resistance to warfarinwas established in 100% of surveyed house mice and 92.1% of roof rats. Resistance to coumatetralyl was registered in 62.5% of the tested roof rats. Low-level resistance to bromadiolone was found in 38.5% of the surveyed roof rats and 23.1% of house mice. There was no resistance registered in brown rats. The sensitivity of all three rodent species to the strategic anticoagulant brodifacoum was high, and there were no signs of resistance. The results proved the resistance among synanthropic rodents and led to the conclusion that the resistance in house mice and roof rats to warfarin and coumatetralyl tends to be the main issue in pest control.
