As key stakeholders in successful destination branding campaigns, residents have the potential to act as brand ambassadors. Based on literature branding, this study examines residents' ambassador behavior (BAB) relation power and trust relevant authorities. such, research considers ‘citizens’, which frames their relationship with local Using survey data from 651 Hong Kong permanent residents, f...

The study investigated the concurrent validity and reliability of load-velocity relationship to predict one-repetition maximum (1RM) power clean from knee (PCK), high pull (HPK), mid-thigh (MTCP). For each exercise, 12 participants performed two 1RM sessions tests measure barbell’s at 30, 45, 60, 75, 90% 1RM. velocity recorded load was used establish linear regression equation and, consequently...

It is well-known that for Hilbert space linear operators 0 ≤ A and 0 ≤ C, inequality C ≤ A does not imply C ≤ A. We introduce a strong order relation 0 ≤ B≪ A, which guarantees that C ≤ BAB for all 0 ≤ C ≤ B, and that C ≤ A when B commutes with A. Connections of this approach with the arithmetic-geometric mean inequality of Bhatia–Kittaneh as well as the Kantorovich constant of A are mentioned.
