Corporate philanthropy disclosure and firm performance in Jordan: Board diversity as a moderator

Corporate philanthropy disclosure (CPD) have always attract the attention of businesses, public, government and other stakeholders to enhance firm performance and ensure long-term business sustainability. The purposes of this study are to identify the level of CPD among companies in Jordan and to examine the relationship between CPD and firm performance (FP). The study also aims to examine the moderating role of board of director's (BOD's) diversity (gender, independence, age, educational background and nationality) on the relationship between CPD and FP. based on the agency theory and legitimacy theory. The sample data used in this study comprises 101 companies listed on the Amman Stock Exchange (ASE) from year 2015 to 2020. The current study developed a checklist with 26 disclosure items to measure the level of CPD practices. Data on CPD, FP and BOD's diversity are obtained from companies' annual reports. The current study uses content analysis and Fixed Effect Regression with Driscoll-Kraay standard errors to analyze the data. The findings of this study indicate that banks have the highest disclosure of philanthropy items compared with the other industries. Cash contribution is considered as the most popular item disclosed while Haj and Omrah is the least item disclosed by the companies. In light of the relationship between CPD and FP, the findings reveal that CPD has a significant and positive relationship with FP. Regarding on the moderating variable (BOD's diversity), the current study found that BOD's diversity have partially moderate the relationship between CPD and FP. This study deepens the understanding of the nature of CPD in the context of Jordan. Moreover, the findings are useful to the policy makers in preparing regulations on CPD as well as to provide opportunities for more research in Jordan on the subject

THE ROLE OF SELF-DISCREPANCY IN GENERATING FUTURE ANXIETY AMONG UNIVERSITY STUDENTS

Purpose of the study: The current study examines the level of self-perception (realism, idealism, and duty) among Yarmouk University students. It also identifies the level of their self-discrepancy and its relation to future anxiety and explores the differences regarding the level of these self-discrepancies and the future anxiety according to the variables of specialization, the level of the study, and GPA. The study argues that while there is a significant statistical negative relationship between the level of future anxiety and the actual self among university students there is no significant statistical correlation between the level of future anxiety and the ideal self and the ought self. Methodology: The study was conducted on a sample of (200) university students of the Faculty of Education at Yarmouk University. Higgins’ (1987) scale which consists of (30) paragraphs and the scale of future anxiety which consists of (27) paragraphs were applied to the study sample using the descriptive correlational approach. Main Findings: There were no significant statistical differences regarding the level of self-discrepancy (real/ideal) and (real/due) due to the variables of specialization, the level of study, and the GPA. Also, there were no significant differences regarding the level of future anxiety among Yarmouk University students according to the variables of specialization, the level of study, and the GPA. Yet, there was a statistically significant negative relationship between the level of future anxiety and the actual self. Applications of this study: Universities across the globe, such as Yarmouk University and the University of Jordan, may find it significant to know that university students have a moderate level of self-perception and do not have a correspondence between the characteristics of the self in its three dimensions. Thus, such universities may need to think of establishing certain training and counseling programs that aim at developing the students' perception of themselves and their understanding of the self. Novelty/Originality of this study: Considering that a few Arabic studies address future anxiety among university students who will graduate and impact their local communities, the paper points at the need for establishing certain counseling courses that help university students better understand themselves and decide their needs accordingly. &nbsp

The article aimed to discover Cyberchondria and its relationship with Body Dysmorphic Disorder symptoms among Yarmouk University students. The sample consisted of (692) students selected by availability. The results showed that Cyberchondria levels were moderate among Yarmouk University students. There were statistically significant differences in Cyberchondria levels across all dimensions, favoring females, along with statistical significance in all dimensions except the “distrust” dimension, favoring students with good and below GPAs. Additionally, there was a statistically significant difference in all dimensions for the academic facility variable. Furthermore, Body Dysmorphic Disorder symptom levels were low. There were no statistically significant differences in Body Dysmorphic Disorder symptom levels across all dimensions for the variables, sex, and academic facility. However, there were statistically significant differences in all dimensions except the “worthlessness and competence” dimension among the GPA variable, favoring students with good and below GPAs. Finally, there was a positive correlation between Cyberchondria and Body Dysmorphic Disorder symptoms among Yarmouk University students

The Corona Virus Pandemic Psychological Effect and its relationship to Future Anxiety Among Teachers

The study aimed at revealing the relation between Corona virus pandemic psychological effect and future anxiety among teachers considering some variables (i.e., gender, social status, and school type). To achieve the aims of the study, the Impact of Event Scale-Revised IES-R scale and the future anxiety scale were utilized, after examining their validity and reliability. The sample consisted of 254 teachers from public and private schools in Irbid. The results show that there are statistically significant differences in the means of corona virus pandemic psychological effect scale due to the type of school; private school teachers were more affected by the pandemic than public school teachers. Whereas the results indicate that there are no statistically significant differences due to gender and social status. On the other hand, the results reveal that there are statistically significant differences in the means of future anxiety scale due to gender, school type, and social status. The results also show that there is a statistical positive relationship between corona virus pandemic psychological effect and future anxiety

Predictive Ability of Utilitarian Religiosity and Excessive Competition in Machiavellian Personality among Graduate Students at Yarmouk University

The study aimed at revealing Predictive Ability of Utilitarian Religiosity and Excessive Competition in Machiavellian Personality among Graduate Students at Yarmouk University. The sample of the study consisted of (366) male and female graduate students from Yarmouk University who were selected in the available method in the summer semester of the academic year 2020/2021. In order to achieve the objectives of the study three scales have been applied: the utilitarian religiosity scale (Al-Khalidi & Al- Dafaeii, 2017), the measure of excess competition (Ryckman, et al., 1990), and the Machiavellian Personality Scale (Dahling et al., 2009). The results of the study revealed a low level of utilitarian religiosity; the average total score was (1.75), and the results revealed a moderate level of excess competition, and the average total score of the scale was (2.67), and the results also revealed a medium degree of Machiavellian personality, and the average total score of the scale was (2.88). The results of the study indicated that the Machiavellian personality can be predicted through utilitarian religiosity and excessive competition; the utilitarian religiosity variable explained (16.9%) of the variance, while the excessive competition variable explained (6.3%) of the variance
