http://ijaems.com/ Open Access international Journal to publish research paper en-us February This study generally aimed to trace the current status and employment of the BSIT graduates of Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology, San Isidro Campus Academic Year 2018-2019. The descriptive method was used with a questionnaire as the major data-gathering instrument. There were 168 total graduates but only 146 of them responded to the study. Descriptive statistics such as frequency counts, ranking, and percentage were used. This study aimed to determine the profile of employed, self-employed, and unemployed respondents. Based on the tallied results, there is a high rate of employability with regular/permanent status outside Nueva Ecija. The majority of employed respondents landed their job in one to six months duration as walk-in applicants with initial gross monthly earning of 5,000 to less than 10,000 pesos. The findings also revealed that based on the respondents' perspective, the BSIT curriculum is relevant to their first job. The majority of the self-employed respondents were on-line resellers and contented in none existence of a boss. The majority of unemployed respondents considers family concern and decided not to find a job and supported by parents as a way of financing daily living. http://ijaems.com/detail/employability-of-bachelor-of-science-in-information-technology-bsit-graduates-of-nueva-ecija-university-of-science-and-technology-san-isidro-campus/ Ellen Jane G.

For the most efficient informational strategies for education, it is essential that we identify the types of knowledge that promote behavior effectively and investigate their structure. The purpose of this paper is therefore to examine the factors that affect Kenyan farmers’ environmental citizenship behavior (ECB) in the context of Adaptation and mitigation (Climate smart agriculture). To achieve this objective, a theoretical framework has been developed based on value-belief-norm (VBN) theory. Design/methodology/approach – Data were obtained from 350 farmers using a survey method. Partial lease square structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) was used to examine the hypothetical model. The results of PLS analysis confirm the direct and mediating effect of the causal sequences of the variables in the VBN model. The moderating role of Environmental knowledge has been seen to be impactful in Climate Smart Agriculture. http://ijaems.com/detail/understanding-the-farmers-environmental-citizenship-behaviors-towards-climate-change-the-moderating-mediating-role-of-environmental-knowledge-and-ascribed-responsibility/ Immaculate Maumoh, Emmanuel H Yindi http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/2IJAEMS-10120219-Understanding.pdf The present study was carried out in a company that manufactures 1-liter jugs, the daily production to be covered is at least 9500 1-liter bottles per shift, during the last months the production quota was not being met, since in the area handle assembly was lost about 12 seconds. The objective of this project is to solve the problem presented in the production, reducing the time in the placement of the handle, the minimum production quantity per shift can be met. To provide a solution, an Ishikawa diagram was used using the 6 M's methodology where it was obtained and it was decided to solve the lack of an electro-pneumatic handle setting equipment, since, in the production area, there is no such system for so it was decided to build one so that it cannot affect the workspaces. When building the assembler, the handle can be installed in 3 seconds under a single operator, that is, the installation time improved and a salary was reduced, also avoiding problems caused by insufficient personnel. In this way, the purpose for which the assembler was developed is fulfilled; the validation of it through ANOVA is presented below. http://ijaems.com/detail/handle-assembler-validation/ Flores Sánchez Verónica, Aguilar Peña Diana Jazmín, Vallejo Hernández Arely, Vásquez Rosas Sergio, Hernández Sánchez Uriel Alejandro, Chama Esteban José Luis http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/3IJAEMS-101202114-Handle.pdf This paper studies imitation behavior by subjects in information structure, for example rating agencies. We consider agencies make their rating based on knowledge of prior distribution, public signal, and private signal. They focus on two goals: accurately estimate the risk of the target, avoid giving rate far away from others. We find that agencies will overreact to the prior belief, public signal and underreact to the private signal. And we analyze the welfare the social welfare loss caused by this behavior and the impact on private information acquiring of this behavior. http://ijaems.com/detail/information-abusing-of-rating-agency-in-beauty-contest/ Letian Jiao, Haitao Chen, Yanhong Chen http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/4IJAEMS-10220211-Information.pdf This study was conducted in the first semester of AY 2018-2019 in Cabanatuan City, Philippines which included describing the personal profile and leadership styles of the participants in the Kapatid Mentor Me Program of the Department of Trade and Industry. This Kapatid Mentor Me Program helps micro, small and medium entrepreneurs the business-know-how in sustaining and expanding their enterprise thru coaching and mentoring. The profile variables considered were sex, age, marital status, educational attainment and length of experience in entrepreneurship; while the management styles and motivation considered were the leadership theories categorized as transformational and transactional leaders. The questionnaire consisted of 24 statements related to the components of transformational leadership based on the study of Xiao, et al. in 2006 such as idealized influence, inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation and individualized consideration and transactional leadership such as contingent reward, management-by-exception and laissez-faire leadership. It was based on a modified version of the Multi-factor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ). The study revealed that the entrepreneurs involved in the program were mostly in their middle age, women, married, college graduate and has already earned a relatively long experience in their respective businesses. Pearson r statistics shows that the profile variables did not significantly relate to any construct of either transactional and transformational leadership styles, except for age that negatively, but significantly correlated to transformational leadership. This means that the higher the age of the respondent, the lower his/her transformational leadership tendencies. This further implies that young entrepreneurs tend to be more transformational than their older counterparts. http://ijaems.com/detail/correlates-of-transformational-and-transactional-leadership-styles-of-entrepreneurs/ Marilou P.

A program for automatic design of substation grounding system has been developed, allowing quick calculations to be applied to Electricity companies, Electrical Design Consultants, etc. in Vietnam, for the sample grounding calculation example is applied to the 220/110/22kV Long Thanh substation. http://ijaems.com/detail/research-design-of-grounding-system-for-substation-using-soil-enhancement-material/ Quyen Huy Anh, Hoang Thi Trang, L.
