Data were collected, using a questionnaire, on the participants’ beliefs about autonomy, their autonomous behaviors, and their perceptions of group norms and group cohesiveness. Corresponding teacher...

Although scholars recognise that social networks within marketing channels can enhance cooperation (the implementation of joint goals), research provides a deficient understanding how suppliers efficiently manage them. Our study investigates the ‘visible hand’ behind franchising by asking: How do franchisors build franchise systems? Using multiple case on retail franchises recognised for high-q...

A gradually emerging dissension in the micro politics of Madhesi community has not received attention it deserves scholarly discourse. This article makes an effort to understand contexts and processes that made pan-Madhesi identity intrinsically problematic seemed be rife with internal conflicts. Drawing on lived experiences collected through ethnographic interviews people who belonged low-cast...

Abstract Uncovering how inequality emerges from human interaction is imperative for just societies. Here we show that the way social groups interact in face-to-face situations can enable emergence of disparities visibility groups. These translate into members specific having fewer ties than average (i.e., degree inequality). We characterize group sensor-based data sets and present a mechanism e...

We study some generalized notions of cohesiveness which arise naturally in connection with eeective versions of Ram-sey's Theorem. An innnite set A of natural numbers is n{cohesive (respectively, n{r{cohesive) if A is almost homogeneous for every computably enumerable (respectively, computable) 2{coloring of the n{element sets of natural numbers. (Thus the 1{cohesive and 1{r{cohesive sets coinc...

We study some generalized notions of cohesiveness which arise naturally in connection with effective versions of Ram-sey's Theorem. An infinite set A of natural numbers is n–cohesive (respectively, n–r–cohesive) if A is almost homogeneous for every computably enumerable (respectively, computable) 2–coloring of the n–element sets of natural numbers. (Thus the 1–cohesive and 1–r–cohesive sets coi...
