Entrepreneurship and its influence on the development of the economy are significant in competitive global advancement. Entrepreneurs need entrepreneurial intentions to improve the commercial environment of the country. Therefore, studying entrepreneurial intentions' influencing predictors is vital for business development. We collected data from small and mediumsized enterprises (SMEs) employees of the developing country and used partial least square structured equation modeling to analyze the proposed relationships. The results assist the literature extension and practically contribute to developing entrepreneurs' intentions through education and opportunity recognition. The findings aid the institutions in improving course planning and establishing practical business setups. This study facilitates the government's ideas of commencing entrepreneurial businesses through proper resource provisions for the entrepreneurs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

For today's healthcare data management systems, fundamental problems are data transparency, traceability, immutability, audit, data provenance, flexible access, trust, privacy, and security. Blockchain is a promising technology that can help to optimise healthcare data management operations by increasing data efficiency and ensuring trust. The current study examined the usefulness of blockchain technology in healthcare and the barriers to adoption. Finally, we looked at the future of blockchain technology in healthcare. The current study reviewed 53 papers and utilised the PRISMA framework 2020 to include and exclude records from the Scopus database. The VOS Viewer software is used to categorize the published literature, and the prevalence of essential terms is often used to authenticate the main themes in classifications. The current study findings indicate that Blockchain offers a wide range of applications and functions in healthcare. By allowing the transfer of patient medical information, controlling the medication supply chain, and facilitating the safe transfer of patient medical records, blockchain technology assists healthcare researchers in discovering genetic codes. Because blockchain can support novel analytics, healthcare firms may notice changes in their data in real-time, allowing them to make swift choices without human involvement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The purpose of the paper is to identify the links and connections among main themes of the search i.e., Mobile Technologies, Service Quality and Healthcare. It also aims at identifying the valuable contributions from authors, journals, countries, and institutions in the searched area. Data has been extracted from Scopus database and it covers the timeline from 2005 to 2021. The final documents (n=245) have been analysed through VOSviewer software and MS Excel. Results show that Guo, X., International Journal of Medical Informatics, Harbin Institute of Technology, China and United States are top performing author, journal, institution and countries respectively. According to the results for collaborations and associations, Bhuiya A., United States and Mobile Healthcare are the most prominent author, country and keyword with highest score of total link strength (TLS). Findings suggested important and valuable avenues for future research directions in terms of underperforming countries, under-utilized subject areas and under-explored themes (keywords). This study, to best of our knowledge, is the first of its kind in mapping the literature of combined themes (Mobile Technologies, Service Quality and Healthcare). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Aim of this study to examine the mediating role of network service between perceived quality, retailer service and customer satisfaction during COVID-19. Primary data gathered through adopted questionnaire from previous studies and 200 university students were asked to fill online questionnaire during COVID-19 situation in country. Structural Equation Modelling technique applied in order to test the proposed hypothesis generated from existing literature review. Findings revealed full mediation effect of network service for both perceived quality and retailer service on customer satisfaction during COVID-19. New insights of this study are key role of network services is identified and university students’ satisfaction is measured for online classes in developing country, Pakistan. In future serial mediation is suggested for validity of existing results in developed and developing countries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

University graduates are a favorable source of human capital but due to changing dynamics of the external environment and growing uncertainties, managers of both public and private sector find it difficult to attract, recruit and retain competent graduates. Therefore there is a need to study work goals and work attributes of a new generation of workforce. To fill this void, the present study aims to explore the effect of work goals and work attributes on graduates’ intention to apply for the job. To this end, we involved (n = 270) university graduates from Pakistan and the data were analyzed using SPSS 24.0. Results show that the majority of university graduates intend to join public sector organizations upon their graduation. Our findings further indicate that work goals influence university graduates to apply for a job at different types of organizations. Finally, we discuss the limitations, future research opportunities, and implications for theory and practice in depth. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
