Copyright form
Authors will be asked to transfer copyright of the article to the Publisher (or grant the Publisher exclusive publication and dissemination rights). This will ensure the widest possible protection and dissemination of information under copyright laws.
Proof reading
The purpose of the proof is to check for typesetting or conversion errors and the completeness and accuracy of the text, tables and figures. Substantial changes in content, e.g., new results, corrected values, title and authorship, are not allowed without the approval of the Editor. After online publication, further changes can only be made in the form of an Erratum, which will be hyperlinked to the article.
Ethical Guidelines for the author
• Authors should adhere to publication requirements that submitted work is original and has not been published elsewhere in any language. Work should not be submitted concurrently to more than one publication unless the editors have agreed to co-publication. If articles are co-published this fact should be made clear to readers.
• Copyright material (e.g. tables, figures or extensive quotations) should be reproduced only with appropriate permission and acknowledgement.
• Relevant previous work and publications, both by other researchers and the authors’ own, should be properly acknowledged and referenced.
• Data, text, figures or ideas originated by other researchers should be properly acknowledged and should not be presented as if they were the authors’ own
• All sources of research funding, including direct and indirect financial support, supply of equipment or materials, and other support (such as specialist statistical or writing assistance) should be disclosed.
• Authors should disclose the role of the research funder(s) or sponsor (if any) in the research design, execution, analysis, interpretation and reporting
• The research literature serves as a record not only of what has been discovered but also of who made the discovery. The authorship of research publications should therefore accurately reflect individuals’ contributions to the work and its reporting.
• In cases where major contributors are listed as authors while those who made less substantial, or purely technical, contributions to the research or to the publication are listed in an acknowledgement section, the criteria for authorship and acknowledgement should be agreed at the start of the project.
• Researchers should ensure that only those individuals who meet authorship criteria (i.e. made a substantial contribution to the work) are rewarded with authorship and that deserving authors are not omitted. Institutions and journal editors should encourage practices that prevent guest, gift, and ghost authorship.
• All authors should agree to be listed and should approve the submitted and accepted versions of the publication. Any change to the author list should be approved by all authors including any who have been removed from the list. The corresponding author should act as a point of contact between the editor and the other authors and should keep co-authors informed and involve them in major decisions about the publication (e.g. responding to reviewers’ comments).
• Authors should work with the editor or publisher to correct their work promptly if errors or omissions are discovered after publication.
• Authors should abide by relevant conventions, requirements, and regulations to make materials, reagents, software or datasets available to other researchers who request them. Researchers, institutions, and funders should have clear policies for handling such requests. Authors must also follow relevant journal standards. While proper acknowledgement is expected, researchers should not demand authorship as a condition for sharing materials.
• Authors should follow publishers’ requirements that work is not submitted to more than one publication for consideration at the same time.
• Authors should inform the editor if they withdraw their work from review, or choose not to respond to reviewer comments after receiving a conditional acceptance.
• Authors should respond to reviewers’ comments in a professional and timely manner.
• Appropriate approval, licensing or registration should be obtained before the research begins and details should be provided in the report (e.g. Institutional Review Board, Research Ethics Committee approval, national licensing authorities for the use of animals).
• If requested by editors, authors should supply evidence that reported research received the appropriate approval and was carried out ethically (e.g. copies of approvals, licences, participant consent forms).
• Researchers should not generally publish or share identifiable individual data collected in the course of research without specific consent from the individual (or their representative). Researchers should remember that many scholarly journals are now freely available on the internet, and should therefore be mindful of the risk of causing danger or upset to unintended readers (e.g. research participants or their families who recognise themselves from case studies, descriptions, images or pedigrees).
• The appropriate statistical analyses should be determined at the start of the study and a data analysis plan for the prespecified outcomes should be prepared and followed.
• Researchers should publish all meaningful research results that might contribute to understanding. In particular, there is an ethical responsibility to publish the findings of all clinical trials. The publication of unsuccessful studies or experiments that reject a hypothesis may help prevent others from wasting time and resources on similar projects. If findings from small studies and those that fail to reach statistically significant results can be combined to produce more useful information (e.g. by meta-analysis) then such findings should be published.
• Authors should supply research protocols to journal editors if requested (e.g. for clinical trials) so that reviewers and editors can compare the research report to the protocol to check that it was carried out as planned and that no relevant details have been omitted. Researchers should follow relevant requirements for clinical trial registration and should include the trial registration number in all publications arising from the trial.

Pages: 339-342 This research resulted to a training model that aims to enhance the parents' knowledge and skills in early childhood education within a family environment. The educative traditional model based on local potential has been developed. Through this model, parents are expected to improve their knowledge and skills on how to implement the educative traditional plays in child education. This research was carried out based on the fact that the trainings before this model had not helped to improve the parents' knowledge and skills in regard to child development. The research revealed that 15.72% of the parents' knowledge and skills was influenced by this new model. The recommendations are made to the stakeholders, especially the Educational sectors (both private and Government) in Gorontalo Province. Pages: 339-342Ruslin W.

Pages: 331-334 This study investigated the correlation between lecturers in higher education and the learning results of students. It also examined various aspects that affect learning results, including educators and sources of learning, learning method, learning media, learning facility, learning motivation, time of learning, and learning environment. The study adopted a quantitative approach and survey method for data collection. The survey was conducted on 20 students in a training management course in the second semester of the academic year 2011/2012. A questionnaire was distributed to record student perceptions and evaluations of the course lecturer's performance. The results were correlated with the students' learning results using Pearson's product-moment correlation formula: the null hypothesis was rejected if calculated t > table t, or if calculated t fell in the H0 area of rejection. The data-processing result showed a correlation coefficient of 0.6441, suggesting strong correlation. It was concluded that there was a strong correlation between lecturer performance and students' learning results: the calculated t value of 3.7960 fell in the H0 area of rejection, which was 1.201 (obtained from df = n2 = 18). The determination coefficient was 0.64412 or 0.4411. This indicated that 44% of the learning outcome was determined by lecturer performance and 56% by other factors (e.g., individual learning process or experience).

Pages: 326-330 Organizational justice has the potential to generate prevailing benefits for organizations and employees. Justice practices direct greater trust, commitment, job performance, more helpful citizenship behaviors, customer satisfaction and diminished conflict. This study is a little effort to examine the effect of organizational justice on managerial effectiveness. The sample consists of 200 managers working in different organizations. The outcomes of stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that the distribution of rewards, organizational policies and procedures and interpersonal treatment enhance managerial effectiveness of managers leading to positivity and productivity in organizations. We demonstrate the management of organizational justice with some suggestions for building fairness into widely used managerial activities such as performance appraisal, reward systems, conflict management, and downsizing.

Pages: 320-325 The education of Schedule Castes and Schedule tribes and other backward classes in India has been the focal point of concern in the post-independent India. Although visible progress has occurred in the life of these students, the educational system failed to enable and encourage them to take full advantage of the available opportunities On social level, the parent's occupational status, educational level, parent's educational and occupational aspirations for their children, their attitudes and values and the demand of the school affected the performance adversely. Locus of control is one of the most studied variables in psychology(Rotter1990). Research has documented the important role internal locus of control plays in academic achievement. One of the variables that might contribute to variations in locus of control is parenting styles. Research conducted has shown links between locus of control and parenting styles. This study examined locus of control, parenting styles and academic performance of socially disadvantaged groups. Locus of control and parenting styles were used to determine which of these correlate with academic performance. 30 SC,30 ST and 30 General undergraduate students within the age of 18 to 21 yrs from 2 Govt. colleges of Jammu were selected as a sample. Data was collected by administering Rotter's locus of control scale while parental authority questionnaire by Buri was used to measure perceived parenting styles of college students, the overall average percentage achieved by them in class 5th, 8th, 10th , 12th was taken as their academic performance. Random sampling technique was used in the present study. The data obtained was analysed statistically and the study revealed that there is a significant difference in the locus of control, permissive, authoritarian parenting styles of SC, ST and General undergraduate students. Also a significant correlation was found between locus of control, parenting style and academic performance of undergraduate students.

Pages: 314-317 The alcoholism brings terrible consequences to the addict. Beside the known damages for the health, from cirrhosis to liver cancer, the alcohol is also harmful to spiritual and social health. The most dangerous is that the alcohol has been always considered as something sociable, always present in meetings, events, parties, and celebrations and even within our homes, without distinction of social class. The present paper reviews alcohol abuse, and its complications in the present scenario.

Pages: 309-313 Most of the present day underdeveloped countries of the world have set out a planned programme for accelerating the pace of their economic development. In a country planning for industrialization and aiming to achieve a target rate of growth, there is a need for resources. The resources can be mobilized through domestic as well as foreign sources. So far as, the domestic sources are concerned, they may not be sufficient to acquire the fixed rate of growth. Generally domestic savings are less than the required amount of investment. Also the very process of industrialization calls for import of capital goods which cannot be locally produced. Hence comes the need for foreign sources. They not only supplement the domestic savings but also provide the recipient country with extra foreign exchange to buy imports essential for filling the saving investment gap and foreign exchange gap. FDI implies that the investor exerts a significant degree of influence on the management of the enterprise resident in the other economy. Such investment involves both the initial transaction between the two entities and all subsequent transaction between them among foreign affiliates, both incorporated and un-incorporated. Individuals as well as business entities may undertake FDI. Flows of FDI comprise capital provided (either directly or through other related enterprises) by a Foreign Direct Investor to an FDI enterprise, or capital received from an FDI enterprise by a foreign direct investor. FDI has three components, viz., equity capital, reinvested earnings and intra-company loans.

Pages: 306-308 Special Economic Zones (SEZs) is one of the export promotion schemes of the government of India among Export Processing Zones (EPZs), Hundred Percent Export Oriented Industrial Units (EOUs), Technology Parks (TPs), etc. The Special Economic Zone is a geographical region which has more liberal economic laws than a country's typical economic laws. SEZ is an instrument of capacity development with the goal to promote rapid economic growth by using fiscal and business incentives to magnetize foreign investment and technology. In Asia, India was one of the first countries to recognize the effectiveness of the Export Processing Zone (EPZ) model in promoting exports. Hence, the first EPZ in Asia was set up in Kandla in 1965. The Special Economic Zones (SEZs) Policy was announced in April 2000, with a view to overcome the shortcomings experienced on account of the multiplicity of controls and clearances, absence of world-class infrastructure and an unstable fiscal regime, with a view to attract larger foreign investments in India. Apart from Central government, any private/ public/ joint sector or State Government can set up an SEZ. Before recommending any proposal to department of commerce, the State must satisfy themselves that they are in a position to supply basic inputs like water, electricity etc. SEZs have potential to play a key role in economic development of a country, as they did for China. In this paper an attempt is made to study the of SEZs. The paper is based on the secondary data. The impact of SEZs on different sectors is examined in the paper.
