Behavioural Finance: A Review of Major Research Themes and Bibliometric Analysis

2023-05-22T12:01:16+03:00

This study explores the bibliometric attributes and reviews the literature in the domain of behavioural finance. Bibliometric analysis is applied to 1,523 articles from peer-reviewed journals of the Scopus database. VOS Viewer is applied for descriptive analyses of leading contributors (authors, sources, countries, and institutions). Biblioshiny and Gephi are used for clustering analysis and PageRank analysis, respectively. Future research directions are suggested based on keyword cooccurrence maps and clustering of recent articles. Five prominent themes in behavioural finance are identified: risk management and portfolio selection, market efficiency and investor behaviour, influence on investor behaviour, behavioural biases, and investor sentiment. In addition to the conceptual structure, the domain’s intellectual and social networks are identified to clarify areas requiring further
exploration. This study augments the knowledge of research scholars, finance academics, portfolio consultants, and other stakeholders about the overall structure and topics underpinning the literature.

Investigating the Relation of Glass Ceiling Beliefs and Subjective Career Success: Role of Social Support and Gender

2023-08-18T11:29:45+03:00

With the advancement in the economy, females' participation in the workforce is increasing but they are still underrepresented in senior positions. So, understanding their psychological viewpoints about the glass ceiling and its association with subjective career success (SCS) is important. This study aims to illuminate the association between glass ceiling beliefs and subjective career success through social support in the Indian healthcare sector. Social support is taken as a mediator in this study. The mediation and moderation approach was used to test the proposed model of the study. For the study, a sample of 300 doctors working in corporate hospitals was surveyed. Data were analyzed through structural equation modeling in AMOS to understand the relationship of all variables. The results found that social support mediates the relationship between optimistic glass ceiling beliefs and career success. Furthermore, the moderating impact of gender was also examined on the association of glass ceiling beliefs and subjective career success. The present study is the first to examine the connection between glass ceiling beliefs and subjective career success in the Indian Health sector through the mediation of social support and gender. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

Geopolitical Turmoil and G7 Renewable Electricity Production: Impacts of the Russian-Ukrainian Conflict

2023-10-19T21:27:28+03:00

This paper scrutinizes the transformation in the electricity production structures of G7 nations in the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The inquiry centers on discerning shifts in the trajectory of energy production, particularly toward more sustainable and secure sources. With the imposition of economic sanctions against the Russian economy, an anticipatory transition from combustible fuels to renewable energy sources within G7 countries is envisaged. An empirical investigation is conducted utilizing panel data analysis of energy data across the G7. First and second-generation unit root tests have been used. Cointegration tests and the Vector Error Correction Model have been applied to see short-term and long-term relationships between renewable energy-sourced electricity production and combustible energy-sourced electricity production. Additionally, predictive modeling, employing SARIMA and Machine Learning model (Prophet) with Python, is employed to forecast future trends in energy production. This comprehensive analysis sheds light on the profound impact of geopolitical events on the energy landscape of influential global economies. The results of the econometrics and predictive models show that there is a significant effect of Russia-Ukrainian conflicts on electricity production in favor of more secure and clean energy. This trend change in renewable energy-sourced electricity production should fortify more regulatory aspects.
