Background: A difference in masked thresholds at different scalar factors of the Schroeder masker (the "phase effect") can be observed in normal hearing listeners (Lentz & Leek, 2001). This was believed to be due to intact cochlear non-linearity, but recent findings have suggested a possible contribution of a more central mechanism, pre

In recent time climate change and its impact on human health and awareness constitute a set of complex and serious consequences to be tackled by an individual country. Climate change is not merely an environmental issue, but also it is a threat that goes beyond national borders. The purpose of this study is to identify the awareness and the impact

Schroeder phase harmonic complexes (Schroeder, 1970) have been used in many psychophysical experiments to examine the phase curvature of cochlear filtering and cochlear nonlinearity. The difference in masked thresholds at different phases of the masker (the "phase effect") is reduced when the cochlea behaves more linearly, e.g. at very high

Purpose – The aim of this inquiry is to uncover the pattern of knowledge-sharing behaviour among the undergraduate and postgraduate students of private universities in Bangladesh. Design/methodology/approach – This inquiry studied the knowledge-sharing pattern of undergraduate and graduate students by utilising a questionnaire-based open-ended

The purpose of this qualitative research is to explore the role of service quality on customers’ patronage decision of Malaysian health insurance products. Through a critical review of the literature about service quality and customers’ patronage intention this research proposed a relationship of service quality, customer’s satisfaction, perc

The main objective of the study is to identify the reasons why clients are dissatisfied and thinking to switch to other MFI or to leave the MFI. A total of 129 valid cases were collected through a random sampling method by means of questionnaires and in-depth interviews, and questions were put to the respondents to measure the levels of satisfactio

This inquiry studies the empirical testing the determinant of customers’ behaviour towards the healthcare insurance products in Malaysia. The research was established on an empirical investigation of the existing healthcare insurance customers from Klang valley, Malaysia. The main data for the study were generated from self-administered survey of

The aim of this inquiry is to test the impact of service quality and trust on customers’ patronage intention under health insurance products in Malaysia. The research considers the moderating effects of corporate image in between, trust and customers’ patronage intention. In summation, this research also examined the mediating impact of trust i

The rising energy demand has compounded with fuel subsidies and a volatility of oil prices has set the transport sector on an unsustainable course and posed a threat to national energy security in Malaysia. Moreover, it contributes significantly to the green house gas (GHG) emission and causes health as well as environmental damages. Green transpor

The purpose of this paper is to examine how the language of advertising (LA) influences customer patronage intention (CPI) towards health insurance products in Malaysia. The research also considers the moderating effects of race between LA and CPI. In order to test the hypothesized model, this study uses the responses from a sample of 160 customers
