Self-Regulation of Internet Usage by Human Development Index

Inocencia Marcojos

In this paper, the researchers used Complex Adaptive System (CAS) to identify the complex adaptive behaviour that are found between human development index and internet users. Specifically, the study determined the emergence of self-regulation of internet usage by human development index. It is also conceptualized in terms of the stabilizing factors of human development index on internet usage and self-regulated control of the use of internet. In order to get the synergy of interacting agents, the synergy calculator was used. A histogram of the frequencies versus the number of connections were drawn using the statistical software. The three clusters were identified and divided with equal frequency. The results show that a country’s regulatory approach to the Internet can have a massive and ubiquitous impact throughout the country. It merely indicates the actual fact that for a quick moving industry like the internet, it greatly depends on human development level of agents. The increasing internet use completely affects the HDI. The findings reveal that internet users with high self-regulation would provide less time to social network sites. Self-regulated internet users will control accessing for internet usage when they know that they could not get any benefit for using it. However, it additionally shows that majority of internet users were ambivalent towards regulating the extent of internet usage and because of this ambivalence to self-regulate there is a likelihood to the internet users to the urge to access connections of internet.

Organizational Support for Career Development and Its Influence on Employee Commitment in the Ghana Police Service

Richard S Brenyah

The study concerns Organizational support for career development on Organizational commitment in the Ghana police service. The purpose of this topic being that most studies conducted in Ghana’s security sector have focused on job satisfaction, job stress, corruption and image branding. Given the importance of the Police work to society and extensive skills and training associated with preparing them for effective policing, it has become extremely important to study issues pertaining to their career development and employee commitment. To address this gap, literature was reviewed. Out of the literature reviewed, Meyer and Allen Organizational commitment and Manyasi, Kibas and Chepkilot Organizational support for career development framework were adopted to understand the variables of the study. To validate this framework, a cross-sectional survey design was adopted. Using a multi-stage sampling technique, Morgan and Krejcie sampling determinant table was used to select two hundred and seventyone (271) junior and senior personnel from the headquarters of the Ghana police service in Accra who completed the survey instrument. Hypotheses formulated were tested through linear and hierarchical regression analytic procedures using Statistical Package for social sciences (SPSS). Findings suggested that Organizational support for career development had significant impact on affective and normative commitment. Again, personnel perceived low organizational support for career development. Personal characteristics such as age, gender and level of education also had moderate effects on organizational support for career development and Organizational commitment. It was concluded that the government should develop and maintain highly skilled personnel by providing them with more career development options and supports as this will greatly impact on their willingness to stay with their organization and also reflect in their job performance.
