Abstract

From the beginning of human history, warfare is continuously changing over time. New tactics and approaches to combat, such as unconventional warfare, hybrid warfare, information-based campaigns, media implantation, and fifth-generation warfare, are emerging, undermining the value of conventional military methods and blurring the line between conflict and peace. The fifth-generation war is not explicit; rather, it is unclear and ambiguous. In nature, that creates violence in a state affecting directly or indirectly state institutions, infrastructure, public lives and properties, and economic means such as banking. Fifth-generation warfare is an active threat to Pakistan's security as there are many ongoing conflicts that one can see at present, such as terrorism, ethnic and sectarian division, media propaganda against state institutions, and money laundering. The research aims to present the threats posed to Pakistan at the current time. It will explore 5th-generation warfare that will be applied in this article to show how it poses challenges to Pakistan. The current political and security challenges, along with the recent international developments that have had a deep impact on the geopolitical scenario of Pakistan, will be explained with the effects of 5th-generation warfare to show how new challenges are posed. The article's findings will e helpful in formulating policies that will ultimately be helpful to counter these challenges. It will be significant in providing more insights and helpful in transforming the discourse related to the security of Pakistan. It shows the different strategies, cyber-attacks, economic threats, and attempts to destabilize Pakistan.

Abstract

The performance of the appraisal system is investigated in this article concerning to personal bias and Organizational Politics (OP). This article focuses on the problems with the evaluation processes that are impacted by bias, internal politics, and incorrect assessments of employees' performance. Data collection using the practical sampling technique. Additionally selected for this article are five public service organizations: WAPDA, PIA, MDA, NADRA, and WASA. Twenty managers and 250 middle-level employees make up the sample size for the analysis. To evaluate the hypothesis, regression analysis technique was used, along with Process modeling for mediation and moderation. The research in this paper demonstrates the considerable effects of individual prejudice, workplace politics, and performance evaluation systems. Previous literature is limited in examining the relationship that such biasness and political exploitation of the organization contributes to employee discontent, impacting the company's norms and Employee Perception (EP) that they are not correctly paying (Ayegi, 2019 & Guo 2019). To contribute to the formation of public companies, managers must foster and value a positive culture. Organizational Culture (OC) does not significantly affect performance evaluation methods, but the moderation and mediation of the variables produced significant results. Employees form the strong impression that the organization has a biased culture. Long-term commendation must make employees feel valued by their bosses to be effective in positive attitudes.

Abstract

Prejudice is defined as negative attitudes, feelings, or intentions toward other people based on the belief that they belong to different social groups. Prejudice influences young people's social experiences and contributes to intergroup conflicts and patterns of social exclusion throughout their lives. In this regard, the current study was conducted to see the effectiveness of intergroup contact in mitigating prejudice among university students and to examine the efficacy of intergroup contact in mitigating prejudice between outer-sect university students. Because of this, this study used a quantitative research design and survey research methods. The data was collected from students attending the three most prominent universities in the province of Punjab, which are situated in the province's south, north, and center, respectively. A questionnaire was used as a tool for data collection. Preexisting scales regarding variables were adapted and used in the study. The amended scale was provided to the students through email and the instant messaging application WhatsApp. The information was gathered from 218 respondents using a convenience sampling technique. Regression and correlation analyses were used in order to analyze respondents' inferential responses. The study results showed that there is a substantial and positive correlation between contact with outside sects and reduced prejudice towards those sects. Moreover, contact with out-group sects showed a positive and significant effect on attitudes toward prejudice reduction among university students. In the Pakistani context, there are many studies regarding prejudice, but research gaps exist. This study is trying to uncover the research gap of preexisting studies regarding prejudice. Our study focused on prejudice among faith-based groups; the area that was uncovered in this study is the role of Intergroup Contact as a Relational Initiative to Alleviate Prejudice among Faith-Based Groups.

Abstract

The current study's goal was to investigate the connection between university students' stress levels and their academic achievement. Using a basic random sample procedure, a sample size of 200 people was drawn from the University of Haripur. Data from 100 male and 100 female university students were included in the sample. Student Stress Inventory (SSI), a tool used to gauge stress among college students, was utilized to gather data. The Grade Point Average (GPA) of each student served as a measure of their academic success. The study's results show a strong correlation between stress and university student’s academic performance, and stress is negatively connected with academic performance among university students. In comparison to male pupils, female students performed better on the stress test. Academic success is inversely connected with stress. Because the current study was restricted to the university of Haripur and the sample size was also small, it was recommended that this study be conducted in the future with a more diverse population and a larger sample size. The results of the current study will contribute to a better understanding of how stress affects university students' academic performance.

Abstract

The fluctuating behavior of financial markets has significant impact on economic variables. A relatively new modeling technique, “switching dependence copula” is employed to characterize conditional dependence among stock indices (Islamic/conventional stocks) and commodities. As the dependence may switch in between negative and positive correlation regimes with the passage of time where the copula captures dependence structure more conveniently and portrays pictures most relevantly then a single copula regime. The sample period ranges from 2011 to 2021. All the data sourced from Thomson Reuters. Overall, the results are in favor of commodities phenomenon of providing better hedging and diversification benefit to stock indices. Fluctuating behavior is observed for Islamic stocks and commodities pairs. According to the results, commodities are suitable as cousin during crisis period, especially during negative correlation regime; commodities perform better, providing hedging and diversification benefits.
