...Endogenous growth theory addressed limitation associated with the neo classical growth model. To what extent is this assertion valid? Introduction Neo classical growth model is an approach in economics focusing on the determination of price, output and income distributions in markets through supply and demand. These is done through a hypothesized maximization of income- constrained utility by individuals and of cost constrained profits of firms employing available information and factors of production. This economic model was developed from the classical school of economics, which was dominant in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It can be traced to the marginal revolution of the 1860’s, which came up with the concept of utility as a key factor in deterging value in contrast to the classical views that the costs involved in production were value’s determinant. The Neo classical approach became increasing mathematical, focusing on the perfect competition and equilibrium. Neo classical growth model considered two factors production function with capital and labour as determinants of output. Besides, it added exogenously determined factor, technology, to the production function. Neo classical growth model uses this production function: Y=AF (K, L)……….(1) Y= Gross Domestic Production (GDP) K= Stock of Capital L= Amount of unskilled labour A= Exogenously determined level of technology. *Note a change in this exogenously variable and technology...

...Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Introduction The world economy today is changing in a fast pace and it puts a high pressure on companies abilities to be efficient and productive. Because of today’s demanding business environment companies are under more pressure and a strategic advantage could be in building an effective workforce through a variety of psychometric testing (Suman, 2009). One such psychometric test is the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator which is widely used in organisations today as a tool. This literature review aims to briefly describe the background history of Myers-Briggs Type Indicator and to understand the theory of the test. It also aims to identify and investigate research done on Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. One objective is to analyse research on its reliability and validity and also to understand the application of Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) in different appropriate work and organisational settings e.g. team work. History MBTI is based on the writings of Carl Jung, a Swiss who worked with Freud before parting from him and developing his own theory. Jung was influenced by Freud but suggested that it was something wider than purely sexual or aggressive drives that motivated behaviour. He also shifted focus from Freud’s childhood centred personality development theory to a belief that personality development continues throughout life (Maltby, Day and Macaskill, 2010). When Jung analysed a patient’s case history through two different perspectives...

...demographic. And some studies have also considered the perspective of the health professional. But I will touch only briefly on this perspective for my research. According to the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control (2011), since the introduction of the World Wide Web in the early nineties, there has been a building interest in the internet as a communication tool for health-related information.” Given the overall general lean of society towards technology based mediums for a majority of communication endeavors, this trend towards online health information seeking behavior seems inevitable. This provides a means for the health consumer to be proactive about their health and become more educated about health matters. Ybarra and Suman (2006) found that proactive patients who ask the right questions “may hasten the diagnosis and treatment process.” The primary purpose of my research is to document the prevalence of health information seeking behavior on the internet, as well as outline a demographic consumer profile. But there are certainly other uses or areas of interest. For example, one important use would be ascertaining prospective challenges that physicians and other health professionals might encounter as a result of this new behavior. It undoubtedly changes the dynamics of the patient doctor...

Suman Sekhar Pradhan, PGDM 2012-14, Roll No 22 * This is a clear evidence of a case, from a condition where out of 12,11 members were against a decision and suddenly due to some understanding the ratio changes dynamically to 12 voting for the decision."Ek Ruka Hua Faisla" very convincingly depicts the switch. It achieves this by staying true to the realities of group dynamics. * Here the objective of the group is to decide whether the boy is convict or not, once their objective is fixed, they start with a vote based on individual decisions. Though, the vote is 11-1 in favor of Convict. * Some of the members look around before raising their hands – and, as it turns out, these are the first to switch their votes. The old man is the last to raise his hand – probably to avoid being an odd one out – and is first to switch his opinion, i.e. to support the Devil's Advocate and no real persuasion is needed. * It is interesting to note that the first turnaround in the voting happens during a secret vote.
